With a ferocious grin on his face, Shangguan Yilei leapt into the sky. Not having to fight in the sky garden was Shangguan Yilei's dream. If he and Jiang Chen fought with all their strength, countless herbs would be destroyed. Those herbs were the wealth of the Shangguan Clan, and it would be a pity if they were destroyed.
"Jiang Chen, since you're courting death, don't blame me for being merciless. But, I really want to know, why do you have the guts to fight me alone?"
Shangguan Yilei asked with great interest. Energy was rolling around his body.
"Because of this."
Jiang Chen flipped his palm, then a thousand years old ginseng that was emitting a strong medicinal fragrance appeared in his palm. Jiang Chen unleashed his Yuan energy, then the thousand years old ginseng instantly turned into powder. The pure medicinal energy was absorbed by Jiang Chen in the blink of an eye.
The Dragon Transformation skill started circulating. All the medicinal energy and energy contained in the thousand years old ginseng had been transformed into Yuan energy, and three Dragon Marks were formed. Furthermore, the medicinal energy had penetrated into Jiang Chen's internal organs and bones, making his life force even stronger.
Shangguan Yilei was startled for a moment, then he burst into laughter and said, "Haha, Jiang Chen, don't tell me you're trying to use these herbs to temporarily increase your strength? What a joke! Don't you think it's too late to increase your strength now?"
In Shangguan Yilei's mind, what Jiang Chen was doing was ridiculous. How could it be so easy to increase one's cultivation? Trying to increase one's cultivation during a fight was just bullshit! The gap between the Combat Soul realm and the Divine Core realm was huge! Furthermore, how could one swallow a herb like this? Usually, herbs would be refined into pills before being consumed, as they would be able to absorb the essence of the herb. Swallowing the herb like what Jiang Chen just did would waste 90% of its medicinal energy.
"It's not too late."
Jiang Chen had a carefree expression on his face. He took out all the herbs and absorbed them as if they didn't cost anything. No one could see that the Dragon Transformation skill was circulating at high speed in his body, and all the herbs' strength was completely absorbed without any waste. Dragon Marks were forming on his body, and with each new Dragon Mark, his combat strength would increase by another level. Jiang Chen's Dragon Transformation skill was circulating at a high speed.
Hmm?
Shangguan Yilei furrowed his brows. He could clearly sense that Jiang Chen's aura had changed. Although it wasn't a big change, Shangguan Yilei could sense that Jiang Chen had become stronger.
"Courting death."
Shangguan Yilei didn't want to waste any more time, he attacked without any hesitation. Lightning flashed around his body in an awe-inspiring manner, causing a huge thundercloud to form into a violent storm that swept towards Jiang Chen.
When a Combat Soul warrior attacked, the wind and clouds would change. Every strike was like a huge mountain, impossible to defend against.
"Nine Murdering Flood Dragons!"
Jiang Chen knew that this Thundercloud Storm was Shangguan Yilei's signature combat skill, so he didn't dare underestimate it. Without hesitation, he immediately unleashed the Nine Murdering Flood Dragons. He had devoured the blood essence of a Flood Dragon, which gave him the bloodline of a Flood Dragon, allowing him to unleash the full power of the Nine Murdering Flood Dragons.
* Roar … *
The Flood Dragons roared, and three giant Flood Dragons, each more than a hundred feet long, suddenly appeared, rushing towards the surging thunderclouds.
Rumble …
Lightning interweaved with each other, causing the air to tremble. Shangguan Yilei was indeed a genius of the younger generation, his combat strength was many times stronger than ordinary Early Combat Soul warriors. In just an instant, all three of Jiang Chen's Flood Dragons were killed by the thunderclouds.
"Hmph! True Dragon Palm! "
Jiang Chen coldly harrumphed, then he unleashed the True Dragon Palm. The gigantic blood red dragon claw smashed onto the thunderclouds, shattering them. At the same time, Jiang Chen's body was knocked back a few steps before he could stabilize himself.
"Haha, Jiang Chen, you're no match for me! Today, I'll let you die in humiliation! Rock Shattering Palm!"
Shangguan Yilei said in an awe-inspiring manner. He immediately unleashed the Shangguan Clan's ultimate skill, the Rock Shattering Palm, toward Jiang Chen. He could tell that although Jiang Chen was strong, he was no match for him.
However, a grin emerged on Jiang Chen's face. The stronger Shangguan Yilei was, the more he liked it. He wanted to rely on the pressure from Shangguan Yilei to find an opportunity to improve his cultivation. Under the pressure, he would be able to absorb those herbs at a faster speed. Furthermore, under the pressure, he would be able to stimulate the hidden potential in his body, strengthening his foundation. That way, improving his cultivation in a short period of time wouldn't affect his foundation. This was the best of both worlds, and the reason why Jiang Chen agreed to fight Shangguan Yilei alone.
Furthermore, although Shangguan Yilei was strong and could suppress him, with his abilities, it was impossible for Shangguan Yilei to kill him.
"Six Solar Fingers!"
Jiang Chen let out a loud shout as he struck out with the Six Solar Fingers as well, colliding with Shangguan Yilei's Rock Shattering Palm. All kinds of herbs kept appearing in his hand, and all of them were absorbed by him. The medicinal strength and energy kept flowing, and more Dragon Marks were forming in his body.
"Firethorn Combat Armor!"
Jiang Chen let out another loud shout. A layer of golden armor appeared on his body, and with the protection of this armor, he was even less afraid of Shangguan Yilei.
Rumble!
High up in the sky, the two fighters were locked in a fierce battle. Every time they launched an attack, the air would violently tremble, and everyone's eyes were filled with shock.
Shangguan Yilei was extremely ferocious, and he kept unleashing powerful attacks, forcing Jiang Chen to keep staggering back. On the other hand, Shangguan Yilei was laughing out loud. He was immersed in the pleasure of bullying Jiang Chen, and he had completely forgotten that he should attack as soon as possible. He even wanted to use his Perfect-Ranked Combat Weapon to kill Jiang Chen as soon as possible. Perhaps, in his mind, Jiang Chen should be tortured to death by him.
During the course of the battle, Shangguan Yilei had neglected one thing: Jiang Chen was growing stronger, bit by bit. Once he reached a certain level, it would be impossible for Shangguan Yilei to kill him.
Right at this moment, Jiang Chen was enduring the pressure from Shangguan Yilei, and his potential was constantly being stimulated. All the herbs he found in the sky garden had been completely absorbed by him, and two hundred new Dragon Marks had formed in his body.
"Still not enough."
Jiang Chen's black hair was fluttering in the wind. His entire body's functions had been activated, and all the herbs in his body were being absorbed like a fountain. His body was like a bottomless pit; every meridian, every muscle cell was in a state of extreme thirst, as if no matter how much energy he had, it would never be enough for him.
The fact that his body's functions were being fully activated made Jiang Chen feel extremely excited. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity, and he had to fill his body to the brim, as he needed more energy to replenish his body.
Jiang Chen flipped his palm again, and the gigantic Flourishing Lotus King, which was as tall as a human, appeared in front of him.
Ha!
Jiang Chen let out a loud shout as he punched the Flourishing Lotus King. The gigantic Flourishing Lotus King instantly shattered, and all the broken pieces were instantly absorbed by Jiang Chen's body.
"This Jiang Chen is insane! He just swallowed so many herbs, isn't he afraid that his body will explode?"
"This method of swallowing herbs is such a waste! Sigh!"
"Even if he swallowed so many herbs, it won't help him at all! He is being suppressed by Shangguan Yilei, he is no match for him at all! As long as Shangguan Yilei wants to, he can easily kill Jiang Chen with his strongest attack!"
"Shangguan Yilei is obviously toying with Jiang Chen, he wants to slowly torture him to death!"
… …..
The situation of the battle was very obvious. Jiang Chen was in a disadvantageous position. Although he had swallowed so many herbs, it didn't seem like it would help him at all. He was no match for Shangguan Yilei at all.
Only Da Huang Dog had a complacent look on his face. He was looking at Shangguan Yilei as if he was looking at an idiot.
"This idiot is going to die a miserable death!"
Da Huang Dog said.
"Da Huang, Little Chenzi has swallowed so many herbs, how come his energy doesn't seem to have grown?"
Han Yan furrowed his brows.
"What the hell do you know? That kid is trying to suppress his energy! Can't you see that his body has been fully activated? His combat strength is skyrocketing at an incredible rate, it's just that he's trying to suppress it! Once this feast is over, that Shangguan Yilei will die!"
Da Huang Dog's eyes lit up. Jiang Chen had a lot of fighting experience. Even those old fellows from the big sects couldn't compare to Jiang Chen in terms of fighting experience.
"This Flourishing Lotus King's medicinal strength is really strong, and the lotus heart even contains the essence of the heavens and the earth! Just this stalk alone is enough to form a hundred Dragon Marks!"
Jiang Chen was extremely excited. The medicinal strength of the Flourishing Lotus King kept rushing into his limbs and bones, causing deep dragon roars to ring out from his body. New blood red Dragon Marks were condensed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred new Dragon Marks were formed. Currently, Jiang Chen's body had a total of 350 Dragon Marks, but his body was still in a state of hunger and thirst, like a bottomless pit that would never be satisfied.
"Da Huang Dog!"
Jiang Chen shouted towards the ground.
Hearing Jiang Chen's shout, Da Huang Dog immediately understood. He opened his mouth and spat out some precious herbs towards Jiang Chen. Da Huang Dog had swallowed quite a lot of herbs before, but he still had some left.
"Ah Nan, Ah Yan, give all these herbs to Little Chenzi."
Da Huang Dog said.
"Alright."
Both of them nodded their heads and threw out all the herbs they had obtained before. All the herbs that filled the sky entered Jiang Chen's body.
"So many herbs, this is really scary."
Nangong Wentian sighed.
"The scariest part is yet to come. Let me tell you, Little Chenzi's cultivation technique allows him to completely absorb the medicinal strength. Furthermore, with so many herbs stored inside his body, it's like a treasure in itself. Little Chenzi is only absorbing the energy within them now, as for the other herbs with different attributes, he can use them again in the future to strengthen his foundation."
Da Huang Dog said. This dog was undoubtedly an extremely arrogant person, and he had never admired anyone, except for Jiang Chen. Putting everything else aside, just the way he swallowed herbs, could anyone else do that?
