Xiao Chen was now a Saint King, so the efficacy of the third-grade Nine Revolutions Soul Restoring Pill was greatly reduced. Although it could heal his injuries quickly, it could not heal him completely.
Coupled with the violent energy in his body, the injuries that had just healed worsened once again. To put it bluntly, the Nine Revolutions Soul Restoring Pill could not heal his injuries at all. It could only slow down the rate of deterioration.
"Is a drop of Golden Crow Amethyst Source really so powerful?" Xiao Chen felt much better after the rate of deterioration of his injuries slowed down. However, the size of the Golden Crow Amethyst Source was obviously beyond Xiao Chen's imagination. Even if he cultivated madly, it still continued to grow and his body continued to swell.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was like an inflated balloon. Even his hands and feet were swollen. Waves of extreme swelling pain spread throughout his body. If it were not for the Black Flame suppressing the terrible heat, it would have been dozens of times more painful.
"No … I can't hold on any longer … Samsara, help me absorb some energy!" Xiao Chen had already reached his limit. At this time, if a silver needle were to pierce the surface of his body, it would probably explode. In a hurry, Xiao Chen hurriedly shouted.
"Master, summon me at any time," Samsara replied.
"Primal Chaos Samsara Pendant!" With a shout in his heart, Xiao Chen's body suddenly flashed with golden light and a jade pendant flashed. The jade pendant emitted a dazzling golden light. Under Xiao Chen's control, it began to absorb the violent energy in his body.
The Primal Chaos Samsara Pendant absorbed it regularly. Every time the violent Golden Crow Amethyst Source grew, the Primal Chaos Samsara Pendant would absorb some, allowing Xiao Chen to refine and absorb as much energy as possible.
Such a precious and rare Golden Crow Amethyst Source could not be wasted.
As Xiao Chen frantically refined and absorbed it, the golden Saint Qi in his Qi Sea had grown a lot. It had already taken up more than twenty percent of his Qi Sea.
Xiao Chen was indeed very happy with the rapid improvement of his cultivation, but at this moment, he could not smile. He endured the swelling pain and cultivated madly.
"Hm? What's going on? " Inside the cave, the masked man tried to sense for a long time, but he couldn't sense Xiao Chen's aura. He frowned slightly and said, "I've already sensed the aura of Xiao Chen's blood. It's only been a blink of an eye, so it's impossible for Xiao Chen to escape far away. Even if he had recovered from his injuries and escaped underground, I should still be able to sense him. Why can't I sense his aura now?"
Strangely, the masked man tried several more times, but the result was the same. He couldn't sense Xiao Chen's aura at all. It was as if Xiao Chen had mysteriously disappeared into thin air without any warning.
"Hmph! This stinking brat must have used some kind of magic treasure to conceal his aura. He must have been seriously injured by forcefully using the magic art. He can't have run far! " The masked man narrowed his eyes. A dark viciousness flickered within them as he coldly spoke. His body swayed and he rushed out of the cave.
"The Scarlet Cloud Mountain Range is too big. If I were to search alone, I would have to waste a lot of time. Hmph." The masked man sneered inside as he rushed out of the cave. His Saint Qi rapidly circulated, and soon after, figures flew out from his true body and shot off into the surroundings.
"With the help of my clones, it sure saves me a lot of time," the masked man sneered as he continued to use the tracking technique to track down Xiao Chen's aura.
Xiao Chen's independent space condensed in the air outside the cave. Since it was an independent space, it was completely isolated from the Saints' World, so the masked man's tracking technique lost its effect.
With the assistance of the Primal Chaos Pendant of Samsara, Xiao Chen absorbed a lot of violent energy in the independent space. He no longer felt like he was about to collapse like before.
Even though the danger had been resolved, the swelling pain remained. However, to Xiao Chen, the pain was nothing compared to increasing his cultivation.
Madly cultivating, the constantly expanding violent energy only lasted for half an hour before Xiao Chen's swollen body began to shrink as his cultivation continued to rise.
Time passed day by day, but the masked man and his clones did not discover anything. The force pursuing Xiao Chen also thought that Xiao Chen had fled far away and left the mountain range. The mountain range returned to peace once more.
By the time the last trace of violent energy in Xiao Chen's body was absorbed and refined, fourteen days had passed. Just a single drop of Golden Crow Amethyst Essence had taken Xiao Chen fourteen days, which was a testament to how powerful it was.
After narrowly escaping death, Xiao Chen's cultivation base had improved a lot after half a month of crazy refining and absorbing. His Saint Qi had also increased from two-tenths to four-tenths of his original strength.
The results of half a month of cultivation made Xiao Chen overjoyed, causing him to grin from ear to ear.
"I still wasn't careful enough. If I had known earlier, I would have condensed an independent space and avoided the previous crisis," Slowly emerging from his cultivation, Xiao Chen let out a sigh and shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Master, do you believe it's the Golden Crow Amethyst Essence now?" As soon as Xiao Chen emerged from his cultivation, the divine sword's mocking laughter rang out.
"You still have the nerve to say that? I was almost screwed over by you!" Rolling his eyes, Xiao Chen grumbled.
"Heh heh …" For this reason, the divine sword could only let out a hollow laugh.
Changing the topic, a gratified smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face as he said, "But this Golden Crow Amethyst Essence really is powerful, allowing me to increase my cultivation so much in just half a month. With my current cultivation, I'm still unable to bear the enormous energy contained in a single drop of Golden Crow Amethyst Essence. Even Saint Emperors wouldn't dare to casually swallow such a terrifying thing. If used improperly, it's no different from poison.
"Of course it's a good thing. Others can't even get it even if they want it." Complacent laughter rang out from the divine sword again.
"It's better to go to the Sacred Fire Mountain Range to ask for the Sacred Fire Amethyst Essence. It's more suitable for my current cultivation," stretching his back, Xiao Chen slowly stood up and lazily spat out a few words.
"I don't know if that guy has left or not. I've been cultivating like crazy before, so I didn't pay attention to his location," Through the independent space, Xiao Chen glanced at the illusion outside and murmured softly.
"What? Master wants to take revenge on him? "Samsara probed.
"Nonsense! I almost died at his hands. After suffering such a great loss, wouldn't it be embarrassing if I didn't get it back? "Rolling his eyes again, Xiao Chen said with a resentful look on his face.
As soon as his voice fell, he waved his hand and the independent space disappeared. Xiao Chen's figure appeared out of thin air in the air above the mountain range. His tyrannical Divine Sense quickly spread out to explore the surrounding illusion while his figure moved slowly.
While sweeping his gaze, Xiao Chen muttered, "It's been half a month. The people from that great force should have left by now. Now, other than that bastard, there's no danger. If I find him, I'll kill him."
"Master, that bastard can find Master's location through your aura. Instead of looking for him, it's better to wait for him to come to you himself! If he wants to kill Master, he won't give up, "Samsara reminded him through voice transmission.
Hearing this, his eyes suddenly lit up and a sinister smile immediately appeared on his face. Xiao Chen grinned wickedly and said, "Samsara is right. I hope he's still in the mountain range. Let's lure him out!"
Pushing the Saint Qi in his body, Xiao Chen released a tyrannical aura. He hoped that the masked man would notice him through the aura he released.
His flying speed slowly increased. As he flew to the periphery of the mountain range, he released his tyrannical aura. It would be best if he encountered him, but if he didn't, he would head directly to the Sacred Fire Mountain Range.
Somewhere in a hidden jungle, the masked man who was cultivating suddenly opened his eyes. Through the black cloth, one could clearly see a touch of ecstasy slowly climbing up his face, "Xiao Chen, that little brat, is really nearby. My guess was not wrong! Hmph! You think I'll give up after hiding for half a month? You're underestimating my patience. "
Although there was no news for half a month, the masked man always believed in his own inference. The seriously injured Xiao Chen couldn't have gone far. It was just that he couldn't find him.
Now that half a month had passed, he finally didn't wait in vain. Xiao Chen's aura appeared in the mountain range again.
"Hmph! This smelly brat is very cunning. He will definitely run in a head-on confrontation! As long as I seriously injure him, I won't give him any chance! I underestimated him too much last time! " Sensing Xiao Chen's aura, the masked man's eyes immediately flashed with murderous intent. His figure quickly flew at a low altitude through the jungle, planning to launch a sneak attack!
After flying for a long distance, Xiao Chen saw that the masked man still hadn't moved from the outskirts of the mountain range, causing him to feel secretly disappointed.
Just as Xiao Chen was thinking about killing the masked man the next time they met and was about to speed up and fly away, his face suddenly froze for a moment before he calmly thought to himself, "He's here! He's really still in the mountain range! "
Xiao Chen's perception was very strong, and after using his Divine Sense to investigate, the masked man flying at a low altitude below was noticed by Xiao Chen after he approached.
A dangerous grin appeared at the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth as he thought to himself viciously, "You've tried to kill me time and time again. How can I let you go?"
In the jungle, a cold light flashed across the masked man's dark eyes as his murderous intent soared. Pushing the Saint Qi in his body to its limit, the masked man was about to rush up and launch a sneak attack!
However, just as he was about to attack, Xiao Chen suddenly spoke, causing the masked man's face to change drastically.
"Do you only have the ability to launch sneak attacks?" Xiao Chen, who was flying, suddenly stopped and immediately glanced down at the jungle below. Xiao Chen's seemingly flat voice was filled with murderous intent.
The masked man was stunned, his face filled with shock. He hadn't expected Xiao Chen to have such strong perception.
"Hmph!" After recovering from his shock, the masked man coldly snorted, stomped his feet on the ground, and flew up into the sky. Since he had been noticed by Xiao Chen, the masked man didn't plan to launch a sneak attack.
Xiao Chen slowly turned around and glared at the masked man. "You sure are patient. You've been waiting for me here for half a month and you haven't left yet," Xiao Chen said plainly.
"Your luck is pretty good. That power actually didn't kill you. Seeing how confident you are, I presume you've already refined that power and your cultivation should have improved by quite a bit." With a cold smile, the masked man spoke in a sinister manner while contempt and disdain flashed in his eyes.
"I also think my luck is quite good. Not only did I refine that power, but I also lured you out," Xiao Chen said with a dangerous smile on his face.
"Oh? Lured me out? Do you really think your cultivation has improved a bit? "Slightly surprised, the masked man said disdainfully.
