Chapter 454: Chapter 168: Ice Crystal Chi Dragon! Innate Qi!_2

Su Changkong didn’t hesitate to eject a surge of energy from his palm, forming a vortex that generated a suction force, attempting to draw the Innate Qi towards him.

Whoosh!

The Innate Qi was pulled and flew towards Su Changkong, causing his heart to surge with excitement.

He was here for the Innate Qi; obtaining even a strand would give him hope of entering the Innate Realm. As for the so-called Divine Seed, which Wind Sun Moon and the others seemed crazy for, he was well aware that his current strength was likely insufficient to compete for it. Satisfied with just a strand of Innate Qi, he would be content!

Whether he directly refined it or studied its profound secrets, either path could lead him into the Innate Realm!

However, just as the Innate Qi had flown halfway, it stopped abruptly, and a large hand reached out, clenching the Innate Qi in its grasp.

...

“Crack crack crack!”

Su Changkong witnessed an eerie sight: fragments of shattered bodies on the ground were reassembling under some invisible force, including the hand that had grabbed the Innate Qi.

The shattered body parts formed a complete figure, a body round and plump like a meatball—it was none other than Zhong Yue!

Previously, Zhong Yue was the first to contact the Divine Seed, and as a result, he was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture and then shattered by a slap from the Chi Dragon. Such an injury would be fatal for an ordinary person.

But Zhong Yue shivered, and the broken mask revealed a chubby and comical face. He said warily, “As expected of the power of the Divine Seed… Even a single injury made me consume so much demonic power to recover!”

Zhong Yue was not a Martial Artist but a Monster Warrior who had fused with a demon Crystal Core!

Under normal circumstances, his body could heal in an instant from ordinary sword or blade wounds, even if he were dismembered. But the attack from the Divine Seed was on another level of potency, causing greater destruction. With Zhong Yue’s Immortal Body, it took a long time and a significant amount of demonic power to recover.

But looking at the strand of Innate Qi in his hand, Zhong Yue chuckled “Heh heh, Innate Qi, even if I can’t use it, I can still exchange it for resources!”

Su Changkong’s face turned grim. This Zhong Yue, a Monster Warrior, had snatched away the strand of Innate Qi? Even he felt a surge of murderous intent in an instant.

“Don’t act rashly… there might be other strands of Innate Qi in this Chi Dragon Hall!”

Su Changkong suppressed his urge to kill, knowing it would be unwise to confront Zhong Yue here. Not to mention Zhong Yue’s overwhelming strength, coupled with an Immortal Body, it wouldn’t be easy for Su Changkong to kill him.

And he had two companions, both busy dealing with the Chi Dragon, but they could help him at any moment.

This is Chi Dragon Hall, and since there was a strand of Innate Qi lingering, there might be a second one!

While Su Changkong was controlling his rationality, Zhong Yue rolled his eyes and looked up at Su Changkong, chortling coldly, “Kid, if you want this strand of Innate Qi, come and snatch it!”

Zhong Yue did not provoke Su Changkong out of boredom to make enemies but because he didn’t want to fight the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon.

As long as he provoked Su Changkong to act, he could fight him instead, and wouldn’t need to confront the Chi Dragon. The Ice Crystal Chi Dragon possessed the Divine Seed’s power, which was fundamentally different in strength. Even with his Immortal Body, taking a few more hits from the Ice Crystal Chi Dragon posed the risk of death. Fighting a Human Warrior was clearly more pleasant and leisurely! @@novelbin@@

Therefore, not only did Zhong Yue snatch the Innate Qi, but he also provoked Su Changkong actively.

Su Changkong’s eyes turned cold, and murderous intent boiled within him. Still, considering there might be other strands of Innate Qi in this hall, he temporarily restrained himself from engaging Zhong Yue.

Elsewhere, Hong Xiang, who was fighting the Chi Dragon, noticed the situation here and roared furiously, “Zhong Yue! Stop stirring up trouble and come help!”

Hearing this, Zhong Yue’s heart tensed. He had deliberately provoked the Human Warrior to avoid clashing with the Chi Dragon.

Zhong Yue shouted, “I’ve just been injured by the power of the Divine Seed, and my demonic power is severely depleted; I need to eat some flesh to replenish myself!”

Without any hesitation, Zhong Yue stuffed the strand of Innate Qi directly into his mouth and swallowed it.

Then his plump body lunged towards Su Changkong, reaching out with a large hand towards Su Changkong’s face.

Zhong Yue’s strike was lackadaisical; he was aware that the Human Warrior before him wasn’t even an Innate Martial Artist. His goal was to engage in battle, thus avoiding the need to confront the Chi Dragon with Divine Seed’s might.

Engaging in battle meant the possibility of death; even if he won, the Divine Seed would end up as Wind Sun Moon’s, and he wouldn’t receive many benefits, so he was certainly not giving his all.

“You’re courting death!”

Murderous intent in Su Changkong’s heart soared. It was one thing for Zhong Yue to snatch the strand of Innate Qi—after all, it was ownerless, up for grabs to anyone with the capability. But now Zhong Yue was initiating a fight with him after obtaining the Innate Qi?

Su Changkong made up his mind—to kill Zhong Yue, take the Innate Qi he possessed, and quickly leave this dangerous place.

Giant Whale Technique. Endless Furious Sea!

Su Changkong abruptly stepped forward, his thick Giant Whale True Qi coalescing into a vortex on his fist, roaring violently as he lashed out.

“Hmm?”

Zhong Yue’s eyelids twitched. He hadn’t taken Su Changkong, a mere Qi-Blood Realm Martial Artist, seriously, fearing that he would kill him with too strong a blow and not be able to stall for time. But as soon as Su Changkong made his move, the robust True Qi was definitely not inferior to an Innate Martial Artist, even overshadowing most Innate Martial Artists in the One Flower Realm!
