How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chen Yu's previous location was in the northern part of the Eastern Domain, a great distance from the Tian Nan Sea area.

Even with the help of the Transmission Array of the Cultivation Spirit Hall, it would still take a long time.

Of course, Chen Yu wasn't in too much of a hurry, as reaching the location only to find no treasure or that someone else had already taken it would be quite disappointing.

During this time, he sent a message to the Eight Sword Saints to inform Ye Luofeng that he was still alive.

A month later, Chen Yu was already near the Tian Nan Sea.

Here, the figures of the Demon Race could be seen frequently, making it relatively more chaotic.

Chen Yu had previously encountered a bandit group, but later he turned the tables on them, robbing them of their money...

"My cultivation has reached a bottleneck."

One day, in his regular cultivation, Chen Yu suddenly touched upon a bottleneck in his cultivation realm.

Thus, he decided to break through the bottleneck first and then continue on his journey.

The treasures left by the Qingyun Emperor were not something one could acquire easily; the stronger one's strength, the more assured one could be.

Moreover, Chen Yu still had a lot of loot on hand, which he could sell at this Cultivation Spirit Hall.

Just the storage space of that half-step Bloodline King alone contained many treasures. Later, in Meng Village, he killed many powerful members of the Yin Clan, gaining a considerable amount.

Due to the abundance of items, Chen Yu set up a stall within the Cultivation Spirit Hall.

Of course, each time he would only take out a portion to avoid attracting too much attention.

During this time, Chen Yu happened to encounter someone selling the "Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill," and he bought it with plenty of money.

The Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill helps in breaking through cultivation bottlenecks, with an incredibly high success rate. After the breakthrough, the realm is extremely stable, requiring no time or effort to consolidate.

Among the elixirs for breaking through a bottleneck, the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill is definitely the top choice.

With Chen Yu's current financial resources, spending fifty thousand Grade Essence Stones to buy a Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill was but a trivial matter.

Back then, the storage space of the half-step Bloodline King from the Blood Race contained more than three hundred thousand Grade Essence Stones.

In a few days, Chen Yu sold off some useless items in his possession, exchanging them for a large amount of Grade Essence Stones.

On that day.

Chen Yu went to a place for cultivation, rented a secret chamber, and prepared to break through his cultivation realm.

Outside the cultivation place, among the passing crowd, four people stopped, including two from the Demon Race and two from the Human Race.

"Boss, that kid is probably going to use the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill to break through his cultivation bottleneck. What should we do?"

A man covered in black hair, with dog ears on his head, showed an anxious expression.

They were eyeing Chen Yu because they heard that a Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill had appeared in the market and was purchased by Chen Yu.

The war spoil they valued most was the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill, but to their dismay, Chen Yu planned to consume it before leaving the Spirit Hall, making them itch to rob him.

However, this is the Cultivation Spirit Hall, said to have a King overseeing it. Although it's chaotic outside, hardly anyone causes trouble inside here.

"Hmph, although the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill is gone, this kid has been selling high-end goods recently, accumulating Grade Essence Stones, numbering probably in the tens or hundreds of thousands."

A middle-aged man with a handlebar mustache and a sinister look snorted coldly, evidently somewhat discontented.

The Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill generally only appears at auctions. It's unknown what fool sold it at a stall for a low price, only for Chen Yu to buy it.

If he had acquired the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill, within six months, the middle-aged man with the mustache was confident he could progress smoothly to the Peak of the Late Stage Sky Sea Realm.

"That brat is only at mid-stage of the Sky Sea Realm and yet uses a Spirit Pill like the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill. It's a sheer waste, like a cow chewing on peonies."

The middle-aged man with the mustache grumbled again in indignation.

In the cultivation secret chamber, Chen Yu operated the "Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record," entering a state of cultivation.

Everything went smoothly as he took out the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill and swallowed it in one go.

Suddenly, a turbulent current surged through Chen Yu's body, circulating throughout and finally merging into his True Yuan Sea.

Rumble~

The expansion of the entire True Yuan Sea began to change.

In the past, the True Yuan Sea expanded in a vortex-like manner, hitting all around.

But after swallowing the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill, the True Yuan Sea surged and presented a circular expansion like tides once it reached a certain intensity.

The first wave of tides was alright, but the second one surged right after, with greater momentum surpassing the first.

This way of expanding the True Yuan Sea was rather domineering, but after each impact, the somewhat unstable True Yuan Sea would receive a stream's nourishment, gradually stabilizing.

"It seems this pill is meant for high-level Venerables to consume. If one were at the Late Sky Sea Realm or even the Peak of Late Stage, a more stable True Yuan Sea wouldn't encounter issues."

Chen Yu speculated inwardly.

However, as he had always progressed steadily, he believed no problems would arise.

In half a day, the medicinal power of the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill faded, and Chen Yu's cultivation smoothly reached the Mid-stage Sky Sea Realm Peak.

Chen Yu mobilized his True Yuan and found it exceedingly smooth, unhindered.

"This pill is indeed extraordinary."

Chen Yu smiled slightly.

Then he took out the half jade pendant and infused his Spiritual Sense.

A layer of immaculate holy radiance emitted an awe-inspiring sacred aura that enveloped Chen Yu's body and mind.

Chen Yu felt his entire body relax, and his mind cleared, feeling refreshed and comfortable.

A moment later.

The immaculate holy radiance on the half jade pendant faded, and Chen Yu's Demon Pattern True Essence became purer, eliminating some minor flaws and hidden dangers.

Just as he was about to put away the jade pendant, it emitted radiance again, slightly floating as if wanting to drift away.

Soon, it settled back down.

"Recently, there have been more and more anomalies. It seems there might indeed be secrets around Tian Nan Sea."

Chen Yu felt a bit more at ease, at least this trip wasn't in vain.

...

In the tavern, the middle-aged man with the mustache and his group were snacking and drinking, occasionally glancing at the Cultivation Spirit Hall opposite.

"The kid is still breaking through the bottleneck; it won't be soon. I'll go back and take a nap. The three of you keep watch and inform me if there's any news."

The middle-aged man with the mustache was planning to head back for a nap as waiting around was too boring.

"Boss, boss, the kid's out."

The man covered in black hair suddenly called out.

"Keep it down! Don't let others also eye our prey."

The middle-aged man with the mustache glared in anger.

Inside the Cultivation Spirit Hall, there were quite a few other "hunters."

"Let's go!"

He gave a low shout, leading his three men out of the tavern.

A few people were rubbing their fists, eyes gleaming with excitement.

Finding the target and waiting for the right moment is the most troublesome; they prefer the instant of hunting down the target.

"This kid ran out in just half a day, maybe he didn't take the Nine Waves Sea Origin Pill."

The mustached man thought to himself, and the few quietly followed.

After leaving the Cultivation Spirit Hall, the four of the mustached man immediately sped up to avoid losing track.

"Don't worry, boss, this kid can't escape my nose."

The black-haired man pointed to his dog-like nose and said.

A moment later, his expression changed slightly: "Huh, the target suddenly stopped!"

"Perfect, let's go up and chop him to pieces."

The mustached man snorted coldly.

He had already investigated Chen Yu's cultivation level, so what was there to worry about at this point?

But before they could rush out, Chen Yu shouted from a distance, "What demon spawn is lurking here? Get out now!"

The mustached four were suddenly stunned; if they rushed out, would it not prove they were the demon spawn?

But if they didn't... that was even less possible; how could they let a duck in hand fly away?

So, the four... demon spawns rushed out.

"Brat, sharp-tongued as ever, just wait to see what I do to you later."

Another person shouted.

Even the two demons in the group were angry being called demon spawn, let alone humans.

"Hurry up, I'm busy."

Chen Yu said casually.

As soon as he left the Cultivation Spirit Hall, he realized he was being followed. Since they hesitated to act, Chen Yu stopped to force them to reveal themselves.

"Damn you, I'll make you kneel and bark like a dog later."

The black-haired man, with a cold look, was the first to charge out.

He was at the peak of the Mid-stage Sky Sea Realm in the group, second only to the mustached middle-aged.

Even if Chen Yu had successfully broken through to the Mid-stage Sea Sky Realm Peak, could he compare to him?

Rumble~

Gales swept the area, black blade-like winds raged wildly, slicing through trees within a hundred yards in an instant, leaving only knife marks on the ground.

The next moment, the black-haired man summoned a pitch-black giant blade, slashing forward with mighty force.

The black wind long blade, more than fifty yards long, slashed straight toward Chen Yu's head.

Bam!

Chen Yu raised his arm and gently waved it, striking the black wind long blade, producing a crisp metallic sound.

Then, the black blade shattered, the surrounding gale dissipated instantly, and a supremely oppressive aura spread out.

"You... impossible!"

The black-haired man was dumbfounded, incoherent.

"Retreat."

The mustached man shivered all over, gave a low shout, and turned to flee.

With the move just displayed, he felt a sense of crisis, knowing that even if he attacked with all his might, he was not a match for Chen Yu.

However.

As the four turned to flee, suddenly, a silver-grey giant hand appeared in the void, slamming down fiercely.

Boom!

The earth trembled, forming a massive palm print filled with a slurry of blood and flesh.

Thud! Thud!

The mustached man was filled with terror, stepping back several paces, his internal energy and blood churning.

In a moment, his three subordinates were crushed into minced meat.

His courage shattered; his scalp tingled, and he burst forth with maximum speed to escape again.

But Chen Yu was even faster, appearing in front of the mustached man in just two breaths, punching out.

The mustached man's eyes bulged with fury, and he bit his teeth, drawing out a large blade to slash back.

Clang bam!

The large blade collided with the pitch-black iron fist, producing a violent trembling sound, causing the mustached man's tiger mouth to crack, and the blade to be flung aside.

Then, Chen Yu followed up with another punch, striking the mustached man's chest.

His True Yuan protection was like thin paper, pierced through by Chen Yu.

Bam!

The punch landed, creating a bloody hole in the mustached man's chest, sending him flying backward, falling to the ground, bleeding profusely.

Chen Yu clapped his hands, preparing to leave.

Just then, two figures flew from afar, an old man in black and a handsome young man.

"The Black Wind Four Fiends? Dead?"

The handsome young man stared at the mustached middle-aged man, looking shocked.

Then he turned to Chen Yu, even more astounded.

Chen Yu appeared young, yet he had single-handedly slain the Black Wind Four Fiends, while last time he faced them, he had to flee in defeat.

"Uncle Cheng, the Black Wind Fiends are dead. The vengeance for those few friends of mine can be considered repaid. Let's go."

The handsome young man sighed.

However, the old man in black approached Chen Yu directly, with a smile on his face, saying, "Young as you are, your skills are truly extraordinary, an admirable feat."

Actually, the old man in black had vaguely seen the scene where Chen Yu struck down the mustached middle-aged man. That's why he was so courteous now, intending to recruit this talented individual.

"If you have the time, would you be willing to visit our clan?"

The old man in black extended an invitation.

The area near Tian Nan Sea was quite chaotic; having a refuge would indeed be much better.

"Which clan do you two belong to?"

Chen Yu instinctively asked.

"One of the six great Emperor clans, the Yin Clan."

The handsome young man, knowing Uncle Cheng's intention to recruit this person, felt a bit envious in his heart, and spoke with pride.
