In the room, Chen Zong took a deep breath to calm himself down.
He did not expect that there would be such a big reversal in the fact that the dust had settled.
Luo Kongzi, one of the ten candidates, had died. He had chosen to go out to find the demons of the void and fight for survival. He had strived to make a breakthrough in the desperate situation and increase his strength.
Chen Zong understood his actions very well.
As the saying goes, if you don't go crazy, you won't survive. Luo Kongzi must have felt that he was not strong enough. If he could get a spot this time, then he might be eliminated in the next competition. Therefore, he took the risk.
But he did not expect that he would be so unlucky as to be surrounded by powerful demons of the void. After a fierce battle, although he had killed many demons of the void, he still died in the end.
This also sounded the alarm bell for Chen Zong. He had to be vigilant.
Making a breakthrough was important, but so was preserving one's life. Otherwise, one's life would be in vain.
The competition between the five candidates was set for three days later.
There were three days left. Chen Zong took out an elixir.
This medicinal pill was completely golden in color, and its surface was covered with veined patterns. Upon closer inspection, one would discover that the veined patterns seemed to be lifelike true dragons that controlled the nine heavens and four seas. With another spin, one would discover that the veined patterns seemed to have transformed into ferocious tigers that occupied the mountain forests.
Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Gold Elixir!
This elixir did not belong to the Shenxuan Army, nor did it belong to the Xuantian Army. It was the Killer Master's own elixir.
The effect of the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Gold Elixir was not to directly increase one's cultivation, but to stimulate one's potential.
For those with great potential, this elixir was a divine elixir.
For those with shallow or insufficient potential, this elixir was equivalent to useless.
The Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Gold Elixir was obtained by the Killer Master in his early years. There was only one left, and it was a treasure. This time, he gave it to Chen Zong because he saw that Chen Zong's potential was unfathomable.
According to the Killer Master, how much potential could be stimulated by taking the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Gold Elixir depended on one's willpower and the depth of one's potential.
This was because after consuming the Nine Turns Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill, one would be attacked by the power of the Golden Pill. It was not a pleasure, and the longer it lasted, the harder it would be to bear. When one could no longer bear it and fainted, it would automatically stop, and one would not be harmed.
The so-called Nine Transformations actually meant activating one's potential nine times. The pain from the first time was relatively weak and could be easily endured. The amount of potential that was activated was also relatively small.
The ninth time was the most painful, but at the same time, it also stimulated the most potential.
That potential wasn't just capable of improving one's cultivation, it was capable of improving cultivation techniques, martial techniques, and so on and so forth. It was even to the extent that Dao Insights would be affected by it.
However, according to Killer Master's words, it seemed that no one could withstand the destruction of the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill nine times.
Seven times at most.
The Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill was good, but it also had a flaw. After one's potential was stimulated, one's body would be in a temporary deficit for a period of time.
A period of deficiency in one's potential meant that it would be difficult for one to advance by leaps and bounds during that period of time. In fact, the effects of cultivation would be much weaker than usual, perhaps even more than double.
As for the period of deficiency in one's potential, it wasn't certain. It depended on the person. For some, it would pass in a year, while for others, it might pass in ten years. For some, it might pass in a few decades.
Of course, if one could obtain some rare treasures to consume, they might be able to overcome the deficiency in a very short period of time.
To put it simply, consuming the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill was equivalent to bringing the effects of one's future cultivation to the present. It would cause a temporary delay in one's future, making it difficult to improve. However, it wasn't permanent and could be compensated for.
This was a choice.
Chen Zong didn't hesitate too much and made the decision to consume the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill.
Although there would be some side effects, it wasn't unacceptable.
At the very least, he had to raise his strength as much as possible. Only then would he have a chance to win the competition and obtain a spot.
He only had three days. He would do his best to raise his strength and strive to obtain a spot.
This was because Chen Zong knew that the other four people who would be competing with him were all at least at the late-Fifth Heaven Saint Realm. Moreover, they weren't ordinary late-Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivators.
In an instant, Chen Zong consumed the Nine Revolution Dragon-Tiger Golden Pill and swallowed it.
As soon as the Golden Pill entered his stomach, it started to spin violently. Chen Zong could vaguely see a ball of golden light shooting out from his abdomen and spreading rapidly. It spread throughout his limbs and bones, penetrating deep into his bone marrow and into the deepest part of his body.
Potential was hidden in the deepest part of his body.
The golden light transformed into a giant dragon and a ferocious tiger that charged around his body recklessly, destroying everything in its path. A wave of pain instantly spread from the inside of his body and spread throughout his entire body.
However, this level of pain was still within his tolerance range.
Along with the pain, Chen Zong could feel a clear stream of energy gradually emerging from the depths of his body. It was like spring water gushing out from the depths of his body and spreading throughout his entire body, bringing with it a wave of coolness.
However, this coolness coexisted with the intense pain and could not be alleviated.
Chen Zong realized that he seemed to have become an outsider. He could only passively endure the pain of his potential being stimulated. He could only passively feel the coolness surrounding his body. Whether it was his body, his flesh, or his Spirit Sea, everything was swept away by the coolness. Subsequently, the coolness began to diminish.
The coolness was the stimulated potential that was being continuously absorbed.
The first wave of pain lasted for a while before it suddenly stopped, allowing Chen Zong to breathe a sigh of relief. Shortly after, the second wave of pain came. The intensity of this wave was twice as intense as the first wave.
This kind of intense pain caused Chen Zong's expression to change instantly. However, he couldn't ignore it and could only endure it.
Fortunately, Chen Zong's willpower was astonishingly strong. He endured this kind of intense pain and even more coolness spread out.
While enduring the intense pain, he also enjoyed the coolness spreading out. It was like the intersection of ice and fire, as if he was in a zone of pain and pleasure.
The second wave of pain also lasted for a while. After a slight pause, the third wave of pain came. This wave of pain was twice as intense as the second wave.
Similarly, the coolness that emerged was twice as intense as the second wave.
The third wave of pain also lasted for a while. It paused for less than three breaths to give Chen Zong some time to catch his breath. The fourth wave of pain immediately came.
Again, it was twice as intense.
The third wave of pain was completely within his tolerance range. Therefore, the fourth wave of pain had already reached the limit of his tolerance range.
However, the advantage was that the stimulated potential also increased a lot.
The extent of the stimulated potential was closely related to the intensity of the pain.
After enduring the fourth wave, the fifth wave came.
The intensity of this wave of pain made Chen Zong's whole body twitch uncontrollably. It was very uncomfortable.
When the sixth wave of pain came, Chen Zong felt that he was about to collapse. It was a feeling that his body and soul were about to collapse.
However, Chen Zong's incomparably strong willpower allowed him to stubbornly hold on.
The seventh wave!
The intense pain came with a bang, as if the sky and the earth were falling apart. It was extremely terrifying. It seemed that his body was about to be destroyed in an instant. Even his soul could not hold on. His whole person was on the verge of collapse. Only the last bit of tenacity, like a weak light in the dark night, was still holding on.
When the intense pain left, Chen Zong felt that his whole body was as light as a feather, as if he was about to fly with the wind. However, he did not feel happy or relaxed at all. Because Chen Zong knew that he had withstood the seventh wave of pain. However, there was still the eighth wave.
According to the pattern, the intensity of the eighth wave of pain would be twice as intense as the seventh wave.
Boom!
Chen Zong seemed to feel that his body collapsed in an instant when the eighth wave of pain came. In the next breath, his soul seemed to have collapsed as well.
It was like a void explosion, extremely terrifying. The last bit of tenacity could not hold on. Like a candle flame blown by a strong wind, it flickered and went out unwillingly, returning to darkness.
Twenty breaths!
Chen Zong only withstood the eighth wave of pain for twenty breaths before he fell into a coma. As soon as Chen Zong fell into a coma, the remaining power of the Jindan in the eighth wave also quieted down in an instant. It was as if the raging sea had become calm in an instant, without the slightest ripple.
The remaining power of the Nine-fold Dragon-Tiger Golden Elixir also dissipated and ceased to exist.
Although it was a pity, it was also a protective measure set up by the powerful figure who refined the Nine-fold Dragon-Tiger Golden Elixir. It was to avoid being destroyed by the raging power after falling into a coma. That would not stimulate one's potential, but become destruction and destruction.
Time passed slowly. Chen Zong fell into a coma, but he felt as if he had fallen into a cool stream. He lay quietly in the stream and let the water flow over his body, taking away the dust and fatigue, leaving only comfort.
This comfort was so wonderful that Chen Zong was immersed in it and could not extricate himself.
Suddenly, Chen Zong's eyelids trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. The depths of his eyes were as clear as a stream, without a trace of dust.
Immediately, a hint of understanding flashed in the depths of his clear eyes. Chen Zong quickly checked his body, and his expression changed drastically.
A single Nine-fold Dragon-Tiger Golden Elixir had increased his cultivation by leaps and bounds. It was not an exaggeration to say that his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.
Before consuming the Nine-fold Dragon-Tiger Golden Elixir, his cultivation had been at the late-Fourth Heaven Saint Realm. Now, his cultivation had reached the mid-Fifth Heaven Saint Realm.
Although this increase was not complete, it was still a lot. The Saint Energy in his body was even more majestic and powerful.
Moreover, when he circulated his cultivation method, Chen Zong discovered that the Da Mystic Formula had broken through again and reached the twenty-third level.
It should be noted that most peerless geniuses had reached the twentieth level of their supreme saint rank cultivation method when their cultivation was at the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm.
There was an obvious gap between each level of the cultivation method.
In this way, in terms of basic strength, he had reached a higher level. He was no longer inferior to those peerless geniuses who had obtained a quota. He had finally caught up.
In addition to the improvement of his cultivation and cultivation method, Chen Zong also checked his Dao Intent.
His Thunder Dao Intent had broken through and reached the fifth revolution.
