Ka Xin said with a solemn face, "For provoking me, he's dead! Immediately go to the Blood Yama Hall to issue a mission. Post a reward of 30 million low-grade fiend essence stones. I want his head!"
Lian Hua smiled and said, "You really think highly of him. Killing an ordinary middle-level Two-star fiend general only needs three million, but you added a full ten-fold; much more expensive than even a grand completion Two-star Fiend General's price!"
"Humph! Is he an ordinary middle-level Two-star Fiend General?" Ka Xin said with a cold snort.
...
Returning to the Fan Family, Ye Yuan entered a closed-seclusion state once more, and he startedto take Blackjade Profound Spirit Ointment.
Ye Yuan's Nine Transformations Golden Body was already stuck at the first transformation for very long and kept failing to break through.
About body-refinement's breakthrough, the requirement towards resources was more stringent. Ordinary spirit medicines could not have an effect at all.
Nine Transformations Golden Body, each transformation was more difficult than the last.
From the first transformation to the second transformation, the difficulty was many times harder than breaking through from the Grotto Profound Deity Realm to the Heaven Glimpse Deity Realm.
Ordinary people were unable to shoulder this kind of terrifying resource consumption at all.
If not for Ye Yuan obtaining a One Transformation Profound Gold Pill previously, even grand completion first transformation was very hard to achieve too.
This Blackjade Profound Spirit Ointment was a body-refinement spirit medicine. Inside mixed in many extremely rare body-refinement materials. It was a priceless treasure.
In order to kill Ye Yuan, Ka Xin also put forth blood capital.
It was just that he did not expect that Ye Yuan overcame all the difficulties along the way. In the end, it was obtained by Ye Yuan himself.
Ye Yuan applied the Blackjade Profound Spirit Ointment evenly on his body and started revolving his skill to absorb the medicinal strength.
Very soon, a strong burning sensation came from Ye Yuan's body.
Along with the passing of time, the burning sensation became stronger and stronger.
Each breakthrough of body-refinement was an extremely tortuous process.
A single mishap and one would even fall into a situation of eternal damnation.
Back then, when Ye Yuan forcefully consumed the Tiger Dragon Creation Pill, that feeling of wishing he was dead was still vivid in his mind to this date.
Now, this kind of pain paled in comparison to that time.
Half a month later, after Ye Yuan withstood the ravaging of wave after wave of ecstasy, he finally broke through to the Nine Transformations Golden Body's second transformation!
Ye Yuan's body left behind a pile of fetid order black-colored sludge. That was the impurities extracted from his body after he completed the second transformation.
At this time, Ye Yuan's body emitted rays of golden light. Compared to the first transformation, it was much brighter.
"Finally broke through! Ever since cultivating to Deity Realm, the progress of body-refinement became slower and slower. Now, it's already completely thrown to the back by divine essence realm!" Ye Yuan lamented.
"The Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art you cultivate is already gradually getting into conflict with the bloodline power within your body! This cultivation method has excessive defense and lacking offense; violating the dragon race's tyrannical bloodline power Heavenly Dao. The guy who imparted to you the cultivation method is simply a fool!" Dustless said unhappily.
"Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!"
In the Immortal Grove World, Skydistant sneezed three times in a row and said in puzzlement, "Could there be someone talking bad about me behind my back? Why did I sneeze so hard?"
Ye Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "But apart from this cultivation method, I don't know other body-refinement cultivation methods either!"
It was undeniable, the Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art helped Ye Yuan a lot in the past.
If not for the Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art, he could not even pass through the spatial storm.
But now, this cultivation method was already gradually restricting his cultivation.
The cultivation method did not lie in power, but compatibility with oneself.
This was also the reason why Ye Yuan insisted on creating a cultivation method belonging to himself.
Dustless smiled and said, "The dragon race has their own body-refinement cultivation method. You broke through to the second transformation golden body. Presumably, you should be able to learn it!"
Ye Yuan froze. Suddenly, his head buzzed, and his consciousness was dragged into another space.
"Roar!"
An earth-shaking dragon roar sounded out. An azure dragon phantom circled non-stop around Ye Yuan.
Finally, it submerged into Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness.
When Ye Yuan opened his eyes once more, he realized plenty of new information appeared in his mind, making his face reveal a look of wild ecstasy.
"Waited so long, finally awakened for the second time! Hahaha! Tyrant Dragon Regeneration Art's second level, Voice of the Dragon God's second level, Universe Dragon Claw, Heavenly Dragon Dharma Body! With the second awakening, I really obtained quite a few good stuff!" Ye Yuan said excitedly.
This second awakening, Ye Yuan grasped four powerful dragon race cultivation methods all at once.
Not commenting about the Tyrant Dragon Regeneration Art, after breaking through to the second level, his recovery ability would go up another level.
The Voice of the Dragon God was already Ye Yuan's sound-wave martial technique that he had not seen for ages. The first level was already of somewhat little value to the current Ye Yuan.
With the second level, as long as Ye Yuan utilised the power of the fleshy body, it would be a major killing tool again.
The Universe Dragon Claw was the second of the dragon race's three great paramount martial techniques!
Its power was not at all inferior compared to the Voice of the Dragon God.
But what made Ye Yuan the most excited was none other than the Heavenly Dragon Dharma Body, this cultivation method.
Previously, he was still saying that he did not have the dragon race's body-refinement cultivation method. Now, it came!
Looks like Dustless had long expected it. That was why he would say those words.
Ye Yuan employing the Voice of the Dragon God and Universe Dragon Claw with the Heavenly Dragon Dharma Body, the powerful would be a magnitude greater!
"Heh, the dragon race is also a supreme existence among the Heavenspan World's demon race! As long as you continuously awaken, it will make you benefit to no end!" Dustless said with a light laugh.
Ye Yuan's eyes lit up and he said, "Senior, just what origin is this dragon race's progenitor? What kind of realm was he?"
Immortal Grove World's dragon race progenitor's realm determined the height that Ye Yuan's Atavism Dragon Soul could reach. Ye Yuan was naturally very concerned.
Dustless said, "Ao Qin that punk was True God Realm! As long as you keep on awakening, reaching the sixth transformation golden body by relying on the power of the fleshy body is no issue!"
Ye Yuan's pupils constricted when he heard that. He knew that the dragon race's progenitor might be very strong, but he did not think that he was powerful to such a degree!
True God Realm, that was an existence that the vast majority of the Heavenspan World's powerhouses all needed to look up too.
"Senior, where did the Four Symbols Family Clans' progenitors go?" Ye Yuan said curiously.
Chapter 1485 - Blood Yama Hall
"The four great progenitors were the Immortal Grove World's realm guardian divine beasts, and also Immortal Grove's most important companions. With Immortal Grove perishing and his Dao vanishing, their situation is probably no better too. As for where they are, I'm not
sure either. Back then, I'd already fallen into a deep sleep and was sent back into that realm by Immortal Grove. The events later, I don't remember much."
Mentioning this, Dustless's expression became downcast too.
Clearly, what happened back then was not a pleasant memory.
"Senior, don't think too much about the events back then. This Heavenly Emperor Jiu Shang's lineage, I won't let a single one go!" Ye Yuan said in a solemn voice.
Dustless looked at Ye Yuan in relief, his expression calming down slightly.
He knew that if Ye Yuan could grow up step by step like now, taking revenge for Immortal Grove was not something impossible.
The time that followed, Ye Yuan re-tempered his fleshy body according to the Heavenly Dragon Dharma Body's cultivation method, and indeed felt extremely unhindered.
That feeling of stagnation previously completely vanished without a trace.
Furthermore, Ye Yuan discovered that this Heavenly Dragon Dharma Body was a very high-level body-refinement cultivation method; much more impressive than even the Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art.
Ye Yuan spent three full year's time to temper his fleshy body. After finished tempering, his body-refinement realm actually already reached grand completion initial-stage second transformation.
Just missing a step and he could catch up to his divine essence realm already.
"Indeed, it's still the dragon race's cultivation methods that's the smoothest when cultivating!" Ye Yuan said with a bitter smile.
Before Deity Realm, Ye Yuan still did not feel anything when cultivating the Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art.
But after the first transformation golden body was completed, Ye Yuan felt his cultivation speed become slower and slower.
The method of cultivation was clearly not wrong, but his strength was unable to advance.
Now, this kind of feeling was completely gone.
The three years in the World Suppressing Stele, merely three months passed in the outside world.
When Ye Yuan exited seclusion, he discovered that Li Ji was actually already waiting outside the door long ago.
"Miss Li Ji, you're …" Ye Yuan said with a blank look.
He discovered that Li Ji looked at him with eyes exuding tender affection, just like a maiden who became enamored.
Li Ji's face turned red and she said bashfully, "Brother Source Night cultivates so diligently, no wonder you have such strength at a young age. Li Ji has already waited for two months here."
Ye Yuan secretly felt a headache come on. This fiend race girl was really bold and enthusiastic!
Li Ji did not indulge like other fiend race women. But once she encountered who she liked, she would become very forward and liberal.
This … was going to launch an offensive against him.
Li Ji was not too alike the average fiend race women. The other fiend race women all did not refuse any admission, but she was different.
Ka Xin was one of the best among the young generation, his strength rated as invincible among Capone Capital City's young generation.
Yet, she did not like him.
Ye Yuan was somewhat of a different type. He had no lack of meticulousness amidst ruggedness, unrestrained, yet not barbaric. He was very different from the average fiend race men.
Originally, she just felt that Ye Yuan was good-looking and pleasing to the eye, and did not have too much of a feeling.
But Ye Yuan's performance previously was too eye-catching. That Phantom Kill move unleashing, it captured Li Ji's heart all at once.
"This … Miss Li Ji finding Source Night, is there something?" Ye Yuan said.
Li Ji's beautiful eyes looked straight at Ye Yuan and said with a smile, "Why? Can't I come and look for you if there's nothing?"
Ye Yuan sweated profusely and said, "Of course not."
Li Ji said gloomily, "Source Night, I discovered that you're really different from the rest! If it were someone else, this young lady being so forward, they would probably have long been at a loss on what to do with joy. Yet, you seem to avoid me like the plague."
Ye Yuan chortled with laughter and said, "Isn't Miss Li Ji different from the rest too? Ka Xin is one of the top young heroes in the capital city. How many girls are infatuated with him? Yet, you speak brusquely towards him."
Li Ji smiled and said, "That's because … he isn't as good-looking at you!"
Ye Yuan also smiled and said, "Huhu, that's true!"
Ye Yuan was living under someone else's roof now and could not express too reservedly either. Otherwise, it would definitely incur suspicion.
Li Ji laughed until she shook with laughter, clearly being tickled by Ye Yuan's humor.
"Hehe, it's also too boring for you to cultivate every day. Why not … we go for a stroll around the capital city, how's that?" Li Ji asked probingly.
Ye Yuan thought about it and said, "Just nice, I also want to take a trip to the Blood Yama Hall. Why not Miss Li Ji take a trip with me, is that alright?"
Li Ji revealed a surprised look and said curiously, "What are you going to Blood Yama Hall for?"
Ye Yuan said, "Source Night has a relative who went missing and wants to go to Blood Yama Hall to inquire about it."
Li Ji revealed a look of realization and said, "Like that huh, then … this young lady will accompany you."
...
Blood Yama Hall was a powerful underground organization of Capone Capital City.
This organization was not just limited to Capone Capital City. Its network and power spread throughout the entire Eminent Orchid Imperial City.
The might of its strength, even the City Lord Manor did not dare to easily get on bad terms with it.
Different from the City Lord Manor lording over a city, the Blood Yama Hall's goal was to earn money.
It was just that their methods of earning money were different from conventional means.
Blood Yama Hall was divided into quite a few halls: Blood Battle Hall, Assassination Hall, Hundred Knows Hall, Fiend Medicine Hall, so on and so forth.
All in all, their methods of earning money were mostly some things that could not be exposed to the public.
When everyone heard the Blood Yama Hall's name, they loved and hated it.
For example, Fiend Medicine Hall this place was somewhat similar to the Alchemist Association; a place specifically to refine medicinal pills.
The fiend race alchemists were called fiend apothecaries. The name was different, but it was actually about the same as human alchemists.
Except, the fiend race's medicinal pills were very different from the human race's; two entirely different approaches.
Fiend apothecaries' status in the fiend race was extremely revered. Because the fiend race was seriously too weak in this aspect.
The fiend race was warlike and valued valiantness. But making medicinal pills, this sort of delicate work, not many could really be qualified.
Hence, the fiend race's fiend apothecaries were much rarer than the human race's alchemists. Each one had exceedingly high statuses.
The fiend race did not lack powerful martial artists but lacked powerful fiend apothecaries.
Hence, everyone all liked the Fiend Medicine Hall, this place, but was afraid of the Assassination Hall, this sort of place.
As for the Blood Battle Hall, that was a killing field, and also the gambling place of the capital city's various major noble clans. It was very bloody.
The Hundred Knows Hall was naturally the place to inquire about information.
The moment Ye Yuan and Li Ji went out the door, they were locked on by someone.
Huo En was the Assassination Hall's heaven rank fiend general assassin. His strength belonged to the pinnacle-most existences among the Assassination Hall's fiend general killers.
He had kept watch for three month's time in the Fan Family's vicinity and finally managed to wait for Ye Yuan. But he did not expect that he came out together with Li Ji.
The Assas
sination Hall had a rule, one was not allowed to make a move against the four great families' direct line of descent disciples.
Of course, if they were paid a sufficient price, they would take action anyway.
The four great families' influence was enormous in the capital city. Pull one hair and the whole body was affected.
Even the Blood Yama Hall, this kind of major force, was not willing to easily offend as well.
"No wonder Ka Xin wants to kill this brat. He actually won over Capone Capital City's famous cold-beauty! Consider yourself lucky, kid, let you live a while more! Mn? They are going to the Blood Yama Hall?"
Huo En's brows shot up, revealing a hint of a smile.
Chapter 1486 - All So Weak?
"Hey, are my eyes failing me? Miss Li Ji she … is actually snuggling up to a man?"
"F*ck me, Miss Li Ji is my dream lover. She … actually has someone she likes already! Truly a fresh flower stuck onto a pile of cow dung!"
"Are your eyes blind? Compared to that kid, you're the cow dung, okay?"
"This kid looks like a human. He's definitely a lead spearhead that looks silver; looks good but useless! I didn't expect that Miss Li Ji actually digs this type!"
...
Ye Yuan and Li Ji two people walking on the capital city's streets incurred waves of exclamations.
If looks could kill, Ye Yuan would have long died several tens of thousands of times already.
Regardless of whether it was the fiend race men or human race men, they all had an accursed attribute, that was that what could not be obtained was the best.
Li Ji was Capone Capital City's famous cold-beauty, the pursuers countless, including Ka Xin this kind of young outstanding talent.
But not a single one could move her heart.
But now, their goddess was actually captured by someone. This was simply a piece of explosive major news.
On the entire street, it was suffused with a thick sour smell.
This was not knocking over a vinegar jar, but knocking over a vinegar sea; already drowning the entire street1.
The moment they went out the door, Li Ji snuggled up to him very daringly. A delicate fragrance bored right into his nostrils, making him involuntarily feel his mind rattle.
