Divine King of Honour

Afterwards, Xu Nian purchased some healing pills and, under the astonished gazes of everyone around, he left the Battle Hall.

Upon exiting the Battle Hall, Xu Nian originally intended to deliver the pills to Dugu Jingcheng.

However, he discovered that he was being followed, so he returned directly to the Governor Mansion and had Chen Wudi send the pills to Dugu Jingcheng on his behalf.

He did this because he knew that the followers were from the Mo Lang Team.

If he went to see Dugu Jingcheng at that time, it would easily implicate him.

The last message the guard brought back was that Dugu Jingcheng was recovering well, and his left-hand sword technique was nearly back to its original level, which put Xu Nian's mind at much ease.

After returning to his residence, Xu Nian locked himself in and began preparing for a breakthrough.

Since the Mo Lang Team was tracking him, it indicated that they hadn't given up, so he had to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible.

Xu Nian took out ten Demon Spirit Pills and stuffed them all into his mouth at once.

If Zhao Yanyun were to witness this scene, she would surely be stupefied.

Even she would wait three months after taking one Demon Spirit Pill before daring to take another, but Xu Nian just crammed ten pills into his mouth at one time, which was practically equivalent to committing suicide!

Yet, Xu Nian had a calm expression. He deployed his triple Gravity Domain to cover every corner of the room, just in case someone attempted a sneak attack while he was cultivating.

Even though it was nearly impossible here in the Governor Mansion, he still needed to be prepared just in case.

After swallowing the ten pills, Xu Nian's body exploded like a boiling pot, with spiritual energy gushing out wildly.

His belly swelled up like a balloon, and had Xu Nian not been a Divine Demon Body Refiner with much more resilient meridians than an ordinary person, the bursting spiritual energy from the pills would have been enough to shatter all the meridians in his body.

Body Cultivation Gang Qi existed within the flesh and blood, while Spiritual Energy gathered in the Dantian to form the Dan Sea.

At this moment, Xu Nian's Dantian had completely turned into a giant vortex, frantically absorbing the spiritual energy released from his abdomen.

Although the surging spiritual energy caused him some pain, Xu Nian gritted his teeth and endured it.

"Boom!"

A Talent Phenomenon emerged behind Xu Nian.

A vast land under a suspended Silver Moon, with the Immortal King overwatching from the skies.

As the Talent Phenomenon unfolded, Xu Nian's absorption speed became even more terrifying.

After 15 minutes, Xu Nian opened his eyes, having absorbed all the potency of the ten Demon Spirit Pills, but instead of breaking through, he had only reached the middle stage of a One-star Battle Sect.

"How can this be? Why have I absorbed so much energy from the Demon Spirit Pills, yet my realm has improved so little?" Xu Nian muttered to himself, puzzled.

"Haha, boy, you're really too stupid. You've been at the Battle Sect for so long and only now do you realize?" The ethereal figure of the Yetian God Emperor appeared in front of Xu Nian.

The Yetian God Emperor had been sleeping lately, so Xu Nian had not disturbed her.

Now, the figure of the Yetian God Emperor seemed to have become more solid, suggesting that she must have recovered a lot of strength.

"Your Majesty, what is going on here?" Xu Nian asked, baffled.

"Boy, you have managed to fight across so many levels, can't you figure out the reason yourself? Naturally, it's because the spiritual energy reserves in your Dan Sea are far beyond others, and thus, you need much more spiritual energy to increase your realm," the Yetian God Emperor answered.

"I understand that, but my spiritual energy reserves are ten times that of others. Shouldn't the energy I just absorbed be enough? Why have I only reached the middle stage of a One-star Battle Sect?" Xu Nian persisted, still confused.

The Yetian God Emperor smiled faintly, looking at Xu Nian, "Look again at your Talent Phenomenon, see if there are any changes."

At her words, Xu Nian immediately turned his head to look at his own Talent Phenomenon.

"Seems to have become clearer?" Xu Nian stated uncertainly.

"Correct. While others have fixed Talent Phenomena, yours is constantly evolving, and this evolution comes at the cost of absorbing vast amounts of energy. Hence, the spiritual energy you now need to advance to the next level is not as simple as ten times more than others," the Yetian God Emperor said lightly, laughing.

Xu Nian was taken aback.

So most of his Spiritual Energy had been absorbed by the Talent Phenomenon.

This gave Xu Nian a speechless feeling, thinking how difficult it already was for him to break through to the Two-star Battle Sect. Wouldn't it be even more difficult to break through to the three-star and four-star levels in the future?

The Dan Sea Species Green Lotus Battle Technique was just too difficult to cultivate, wasn't it?

However, the only thing that consoled Xu Nian was that the Dan Sea Species Green Lotus could absorb all kinds of energies without limit. Otherwise, if he had to cultivate at a normal speed, it would take far too many years.

"Since you like to absorb Spiritual Energy, I really want to see how big your appetite is." Xu Nian glanced at the Talent Phenomenon behind him, made up his mind, and took out another twenty Demon Spirit Pills, pouring them all into his mouth like beans.

Boom!

Xu Nian's belly suddenly became even more bloated than before, while his Dan Sea was desperately absorbing this powerful Spiritual Energy.

The Talent Phenomenon then kept drawing energy from the Dan Sea, and as it absorbed the energy, the Talent Phenomenon behind Xu Nian became even clearer.

Of course, there was still a long way to go before the Immortal King Laurel Map could reach the Great Success Realm. It probably wouldn't be completed until Xu Nian broke through to the Battle General Realm.

However, as the Talent Phenomenon grew, its enhancement of Xu Nian's combat power became increasingly strong.

After Xu Nian swallowed all the Demon Spirit Pills, the Spiritual Rhinoceros Pill, and the Battle Spirit Pill, he finally reached the Three-star Battle Sect realm.

And the enhancement of his combat power by the Talent Phenomenon had also reached nearly three times as strong.

Now, Xu Nian, facing Ding Hao again, could easily defeat him without even using his Talent Phenomenon.

This filled Xu Nian with a sense of astonishment and excitement.

Next, Xu Nian took out those three Dragon King Pills again.

Since the energy contained in the Dragon King Pill was too violent, Xu Nian could only consume them one at a time.

When Xu Nian swallowed a Dragon King Pill, he could clearly feel a violent energy surging wildly throughout his body.

Xu Nian hurriedly operated the Divine Demon Refining Body Technique, allowing his flesh and blood to absorb this energy, transforming it into Gang Qi, and integrating it into his flesh.

Unfortunately, this Dragon King Pill only contained Jiao Dragon Qi and not Blood Dragon Qi. The Jiao Dragon Qi merged into Xu Nian's Blood Dragon Essence Blood and did not provide any significant amplification.

With no other choice, Xu Nian took out the second pill.

The result was the same as the first, containing Jiao Dragon Qi instead of Blood Dragon Qi.

However, after Xu Nian swallowed the third Dragon King Pill, a dragon's roar emanated from within the pill, and a streak of blood-red vital energy transformed into a small dragon, roaming about within Xu Nian's body.

Xu Nian was overjoyed and hurriedly used the Nine Dragons Supreme Body to absorb this Blood Dragon Qi.

The streak of Dragon Energy that was absorbed thickened from the size of a hair to that of a radish whisker.

Not only that, Xu Nian's Cultivation also broke through from a Nine-star Body Cultivator to the One-star Body Sect realm.

"Hum!"

At the thought from Xu Nian, his entire right arm was covered in a layer of dark blood-colored Dragon Scale Battle Armor.

On that scale armor, black patterns were outlined, as if they were Divine Patterns, shining brilliantly.

Xu Nian was even more ecstatic, feeling an endless power filling his right arm at that moment. Find adventures on empire

"Boom!"

A punch smashed into the ground, directly creating a huge pit in the flagstone pavement.

The stone slabs cracked like a spider web.

The power of one punch was comparable to a Seven-star Body Sect!
