"As expected of the Blood Demon Crystal. It allowed my spirit body to improve a little from the peak of the fourth step. It's a pity that the low level Blood Demon Crystal can only help a fourth step spirit body.
The higher one's spirit body was, the harder it was to improve. The low level Blood Demon Crystal was still useful to Ye Chen, as it could improve the strength of his spirit body. However, for a fifth step spirit body, it was useless no matter how many low level Blood Demon Crystals he had. This was because the human body had resistance. Using the same thing too many times would cause resistance and rejection. In the end, there would be no effect at all. It was like taking medicine. If one took too many of the same medicine, the effect would be minimal.
Of course, although the low level Blood Demon Crystal couldn't improve Ye Chen's spirit body to the fifth step, it could push his fourth step spirit body to the limit. The more he refined, the easier it would be for him to break through to the fifth step spirit body. After all, most of the time, he still had to rely on himself to break through. Heavenly treasures weren't easy to find, and those that could improve the spirit body were even rarer.
"Senior Yuan Sovereign is right. The stronger the spirit body, the stronger the poison resistance. My spirit body has only improved a little. It may not seem like a big improvement, but I can feel that the Star Fire Poison is less harmful to me."
Letting out a breath, Ye Chen stood up with a smile on his face.
"Let's not worry about this for now. I'll continue looking for Blood Crystal Flowers and try my luck to see if I can encounter other low level Blood Demon Kings."
There were strong and weak low level Blood Demon Kings. Ye Chen wasn't a match for the strong ones, but at least he had a chance to escape. With the existence of Sword Domain, he could suppress the opponent's speed. Of course, it would be best if he didn't encounter a mid level Blood Demon King.
After passing through the canyon, Ye Chen arrived at the interior of the mountain range.
"Blood Crystal Flowers don't grow at a fixed location. It won't be easy to find them on the surface. I can use my soul power to search for them, but underground is a bit troublesome."
On the surface of Bloodlight Ocean, Ye Chen's soul power could cover dozens of li. However, under the ground, the effect was dozens of times weaker, only able to penetrate one li or two. Ye Chen couldn't even detect a Blood Crystal Flower that was a bit deeper underground. Perhaps, there might even be a Blood Crystal Flower several li under his feet.
"I can only try my luck."
Ye Chen flew at a constant speed.
In the mountain range, the terrain was complex. There were waterfalls, lakes, forests, but most of them were barren mountains.
After passing by a barren mountain, Ye Chen suddenly stopped.
"It's a Blood Crystal Flower fragment!"
On the barren mountain, a blood-red crystal was emitting a dazzling light.
Picking up the blood-red crystal, Ye Chen sighed inwardly. Once the Blood Crystal Flower was shattered, the effect would be reduced to one percent at most. Only a whole Blood Crystal Flower would have a huge effect.
Looking at the desolate mountain, Ye Chen understood that a fierce battle must have taken place here. Otherwise, no one would destroy the integrity of the Blood Crystal Flower.
After throwing away the Blood Crystal Flower shards, Ye Chen continued to fly at a constant speed.
Three days later, Ye Chen had explored more than half of the mountain range.
"Yes! He is a low-level Blood Devil King. His opponent is a Demon King. "
Ye Chen's eyes lit up. With the Evil Vanquishing Sword and Destruction Sword Intent, he was destined to be the nemesis of most low-level Blood Devil Kings.
Dozens of li away, a low-level Blood Devil King was fighting with a dog type Demon King. The dog type Demon King was only an ordinary Demon King, and his strength was inferior to Poison Fire King and Blood Hand King. He was in a very sorry state. He wanted to escape, but he couldn't escape the pursuit of the Blood Devil King. He could only passively resist, roaring continuously.
"Damn it!"
The dog-type Demon Monarch roared and spat out a ball of light.
The light sphere exploded, and half of the Blood Devil King's body was blown to pieces.
But soon, the body reformed. Taking advantage of the short pause after the dog type Demon King used his trump card, the light sphere turned into a blood light and drilled into the dog type Demon King's body.
"Ah!"
The dog type Demon King's body shriveled at a visible speed.
In the next moment, the blood light drilled out of the dog type Demon King's body, and its aura became even more powerful.
"Kill!"
With no time to lose, Ye Chen rushed forward.
The Blood Devil King also discovered Ye Chen, and a cold light flashed in his eyes as he also rushed forward.
The two rapidly approached each other.
When they were only a kilometer away, Ye Chen released his Sword Domain, and a powerful sword pressure acted on the Blood Devil King's body, reducing his speed.
"Congealing Water!"
Unsheathing the Evil Vanquishing Sword, Ye Chen attacked.
Puchi!
Half of the Blood Devil King's body shattered, unable to reform.
Although the remaining half of the Blood Devil King didn't die, his aura was much weaker. Fear flashed across his face as he quickly fled to the right. Unfortunately, the existence of the Sword Domain prevented him from displaying even half of his speed.
"Die!"
Bewitching Mirror Shattering was used, and the escaping Blood Devil King was shattered into thousands of pieces.
A low-level Blood Devil Crystal fell down.
"My luck is not bad. Another one."
Reaching out his hand, Ye Chen sucked the Blood Devil Crystal over with a satisfied expression.
"I have to find a place to refine the Blood Devil Crystal and increase the strength of my spirit body."
Ye Chen was used to fighting steadily. This Bloodlight Ocean was filled with dangers, and if he could increase his survivability a little bit, it would be good. The stronger his spirit body, the stronger his physical defense.
"Not good!"
Just as he was about to leave, Ye Chen became vigilant and soared into the sky.
Rumble!
A huge gully appeared on the ground below. Blood-red flames burned fiercely, burning the ground of the Bloodlight Ocean into blood-red crystals. The temperature was astonishing.
In the distance, a blood-red light sped over.
It wasn't a pure Blood Devil King, but a Variant Blood Devil King.
"That was close. If I was a little slower, I would have been crippled even if I didn't die." In the air, Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, sizing up the Variant Blood Devil King that attacked him.
This Mutant Blood Devil King was not a human, but a mantis demon king. That attack just now was launched with its scythe-like appendages, and it was shaped like a blade light.
"This mantis Fey King has wings on its back and is very fast. It won't be easy to shake it off. If it attracts the attention of other Blood Devil Kings or Variant Blood Devil Kings, I'll be in trouble."
Previously, Ye Chen had been able to escape the pursuit of a Variant Blood Devil King because that Variant Blood Devil King was only slightly faster than him. Moreover, it was suppressed by Sword Domain and couldn't increase its speed. That was why Ye Chen was able to escape. On the other hand, this mantis Fey King was twice as fast as Ye Chen. Even Sword Domain couldn't shake it off.
"Since that's the case, we can only fight it out."
The mantis Fey King was indeed much stronger than the Poison Fire King, but it was still within Ye Chen's range. In a one on one battle, Ye Chen felt that he could give it a try.
"Sword Domain Attack!"
Azure swords condensed one after another. With a thought from Ye Chen, the azure swords shot out, covering the sky as they attacked the mantis Fey King, preventing him from approaching.
Clang! Clang!
Clang! The mantis Fey King's two appendages were like two huge scythes. With a casual wave, a blood-colored light screen appeared. The azure swords were immediately sent flying when they collided with the light screen.
"Bewitching Mirror Shattering!"
Space distorted and compressed, turning into a mirror that sealed the mantis Fey King inside. Shortly after, the mirror shattered as sharp spatial blades crazily cut at the mantis Fey King's body.
"This Variant Blood Devil King is also restrained by Evil Vanquishing Power and Destruction Sword Intent."
Ye Chen revealed a trace of joy. The wounds on the mantis Fey King's body couldn't be completely healed. Even with his Undying Body, his wounds were still extremely heavy. Of course, the Variant Blood Devil King wasn't a pureblood Blood Devil King after all, so the restraint wasn't that great. If it were a pureblood Blood Devil King, it probably wouldn't even have 50% of its fighting strength left.
Chi!
The mantis Fey King was extremely powerful. While being attacked, he also slashed out a blood-red flame pillar.
Ye Chen hastily raised his sword to block.
Boom!
The blood-red flame erupted, and Ye Chen was sent flying seven to eight li. Opening his mouth, he spurted out a mouthful of steaming blood mist.
"So powerful! I'm afraid he's an extremely powerful existence even among low step Variant Blood Devil Kings."
Ordinary Life and Death Kings were also called low step Kings, which corresponded to low step Blood Devil Kings and low step Variant Blood Devil Kings. Poison Fire King was merely a mid-level existence among low step Kings, and as for Giant Wolf King, he was a low level existence. As for mantis Fey King, he was a human King, and was more or less a high level King.
"But, I have Sword Domain. I can at least suppress him a little."
Activating Sword Domain to the limit, the immense sword pressure caused the space of Bloodlight Ocean to become even more firm. Mantis Fey King's appendages gradually became more strenuous, becoming somewhat slower than before.
"Break for me!"
Exchanging his Evil Vanquishing Sword for Sky Scorpio Sword, Ye Chen slashed out.
Sky Scorpio Sword was, after all, Sky Scorpio Sword. The sword energy it emitted caused one of mantis Fey King's appendages to crystallize and shatter.
Buzz!
Right at this moment, mantis Fey King also went berserk. The several thin wings on his back suddenly vibrated, and a blood-red thread flew over.
"Not good!"
The blood-red thread was too fast. Ye Chen couldn't dodge it completely, and his left arm was chopped off.
"Recover."
After regrowing his left arm, Ye Chen gravely sized up mantis Fey King. This was his first time clashing head-on with such a powerful opponent, and he didn't have the slightest confidence of victory.
"Truly, one can wear out iron shoes in a fruitless search, only to find it by chance. The genius that several lords want to deal with actually appeared in Bloodlight Ocean and coincidentally ran into me."
At an unknown time, a figure was standing on a mountain peak ten li away.
"Eh? To be able to contend against a high level low step Variant Blood Devil King, no wonder the lords listed him as a must-kill target. Once he enters Life and Death Realm, I'm afraid even if my main body personally comes, I won't be able to do anything to him. In time, he'll definitely become another Xuanhou. "
"Let's use a soul attack to kill him!"
A sinister grin appeared on the figure's face as he squinted his eyes. From between his brows, a formless soul power shot out like an arrow, targeting Ye Chen.
The soul power attack was too fast. Ye Chen didn't have the slightest chance to react before being struck by the soul power.
Feeling a wave of dizziness, Ye Chen was struck head-on by mantis Fey King, breaking several of his ribs and sending him flying while spurting blood.
"Someone used a soul attack to attack me."
This was the thought that flashed through Ye Chen's mind.
"Impossible!"
The figure was gobsmacked. Who was he? He was a grand high step King. Although he was only a spiritual projection, and his soul power couldn't compare to his main body's, it was still not something a peak third layer Life and Death Chamber brat could resist. In his opinion, this soul attack should be able to easily destroy Ye Chen's soul power.
Ruthlessly crashing into a mountain cliff, Ye Chen looked in the direction of the figure.
"It's a human King. Why did you attack me?"
Ye Chen's soul power was five times that of an ordinary person, and his soul membrane was naturally extremely powerful. During the ranking battle, he could have ignored Marquis Sword Snow's soul attack, but he didn't want to expose himself too much. After all, his soul power was not inferior to Life and Death Kings in terms of quality.
