Chapter 1077
byIn the Body Tempering Divine Pool, Gui Che, Gan Ji, and Luo Yao all had pale faces and trembling bodies. Even though they were powerful warriors at the Second or Third Layer of the Saint King Realm, they could hardly bear such a powerful pressure.
Yang Kai also felt intense pain all over his body and couldn’t help but have the illusion that he was about to explode and die.
However, the continuous growth of the drop of pure Demon God Golden Blood in his body effectively alleviated his pressure. So when he turned his head and looked around, he found that among the four people, only he was in the best condition.
The other three people were already on the verge of collapse and in excruciating pain.
Ji Ping, what are you doing？” Gan Ji roared angrily.”
Ji Ping looked down at him indifferently, with a look of sarcasm in his eyes, not saying a word looking at him as if looking at a dead person.
Gui Che shouted sharply： “Ji Ping, you’d better pray that I can’t break free, otherwise I will definitely tear your tendons and bones and make you die without a place to be buried！”
Ji Ping laughed and said fearlessly： “I have already activated the altar at the bottom of the Divine Pool. You are the sacrifices of the Divine Pool. No matter how great your abilities are, you have no way to leave there.”
“Altar？” Gui Che’s face changed, and he shouted hoarsely： “Sure enough, you have hidden something.”
Ji Ping sneered again and again: “If I told you everything, I might be the one being used as a sacrifice now! I’m not unaware of how insidious and venomous you, Gui Che, are. Do you think why I bring you people in here? With such great benefits, wouldn’t I know to take it all for myself? What a joke. Now that things have come to this, I’m not afraid to tell you. There are all kinds of unimaginable mysteries hidden in this Body Tempering Divine Pool. It can indeed temper the physical body, but to temper it thoroughly, it’s impossible without enough sacrifices. After you die, just like Lei Luan, your physical body and cultivation will turn into energy, and I, like that Qinmu tree, will become stronger in your deaths.”
After hearing what he said, the complexions of several people became even paler. They only then realized Ji Ping’s true intention and completely recognized his sinister face.
Although Gui Che and Gan Ji were not extremely intelligent people, they were not mediocre either. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for them to fall into such a simple and obvious trap. They had been on guard against Ji Ping along the way, but the various benefits they obtained along the way made their vigilance relax, and they were only immersed in the joy of harvest. Before coming to this Body Tempering Divine Pool, Ji Ping had taken the lead and jumped down, and they all followed closely behind. It was not until something happened that they understood that everything was within Ji Ping’s plan.
Now it was too late to regret. Everyone was struggling hard, wanting to jump out of the Body Tempering Divine Pool, but the more they struggled, the greater the pulling force under the pool water became. The crowd could only expose one head and float on the water surface, while undergoing the frenzied tempering of its own blood by the Body Refining Pool, awaits the arrival of death.
“Ji Ping, do you want to calculate even me? Luo Yaochai’s hair was disheveled, and she looked at Ji Ping miserably, with a pleading look in her beautiful eyes.
The ferocity and complacency on Ji Ping’s face gradually subsided. He looked at Luo Yao with some pity, and after a long while, he sighed and said, “Although we have only known each other for a few years, I don’t want you to die. I still like you very much, and I also want to enjoy the effect of this Body Tempering Divine Pool with you.”
Luo Yao’s expression lit up with joy. A smile bloomed on her charming face as she thought Ji Ping really wouldn’t let her die.
Little did she know that Ji Ping slowly shook his head： “But it’s too late to say anything now. The altar has been activated, and you have no way out. I won’t go in either. Moreover, the number of sacrifices is really too small. When my ancestor came here, there were more than a dozen people who were used as sacrifices. My ancestor. His talent wasn’t that great. When he came here, his cultivation was only the same as that kid’s…”
He pointed at Yang Kai: “Only at the Third-Order Saint Realm, the weakest existence in that team. Anyone could bully him, anyone could order him around. When they discovered the benefits of this Body Tempering Divine Pool but he didn’t get a share, the crowd excluded him and took over the divine pool. But who knew that this kind of exclusion actually saved his life. Until everyone was dead, my ancestor waited until the divine pool calmed down and enjoyed the efficacy here alone. He recorded in the classics that if it wasn’t for the credit of this place, even if he cultivated until he died at most he would only be a Martial Artist at the Second or Third-Order Saint King Realm. That was his limit. But do you know what his highest achievement was? The Third-Order Void Return Realm, just one step away from reaching the Void King Realm!
Ji Ping’s voice was high and his emotions were excited. He exaggeratedly waved his two hands： “Although my talent is not the best, it is much better than that of my ancestor. With this Body Tempering Divine Pool, I can strive towards the Void King Realm. I will definitely reach this realm one day！”
“Void King Realm!” Gui Che suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter was wild, but blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth, Youdaoplaceholder0, eyes, and ars.he ignored it and looked at Ji Ping disdain: With your kind of goods, you can cultivate to the Void King Realm? The Void King Realm is too worthless.”
Ji Ping was not angry either. He said leisurely： “You will witness it. When you become a part of my body, you will be able to witness it with me. Luo Yao, although I’m very sorry for you, but you should also be with them and become a part of my body together. Well, I will set up a memorial tablet for you and remember you well. The days to come are long. I believe I will still meet women I like.”
“Madman, you’re just a madman！” Luo Yao’s face was pale, and she screamed sharply.
“Whatever you say.” Ji Ping restrained his compassion and looked coldly at the group of dying people below. He really had nothing to say. What he said just now was just to vent.”
The situation of the several people in the pool was getting worse and worse. Except for Yang Kai, the blood in the bodies of the other three was like boiling, tore the flesh and blood and seeped out of the skin. The crimson blood flowed into the Body Tempering Divine Pool Youdaoplaceholder0 the already divine pool even redder.
Yang Kai only felt uncomfortable and was not in danger of life.
A person’s body capacity is limited. Just like storing Saint Yuan in the dantian, other martial artists can no longer store it when they reach this limit. If it is forcibly stuffed in under the action of external force, it will only have endless troubles and may even burst the dantian and cause people to die.
Yang Kai was different. He could condense Yang Liquid before, and now he could store the excess Saint Yuan into every inch of his flesh and blood. His physical body had no bottom line.
The effect of the Body Tempering Divine Pool was just like the Saint Yuan obtained from cultivation. Ji Ping activated the altar below and maximally exerted the effect of the divine pool. Gui Che, Gan Ji, Luo Yao and others could not bear such tempering, and death was only a matter of time.
Yang Kai, however, could convert this tempering into pure Demon God Golden Blood. He couldn’t wait for the tempering to be more intense. Now, there were as many as ten drops of Demon God Golden Blood in his body, and each drop contained energy that made people’s hearts palpitate.
A shrill wail rang out. Suddenly, like a madman, Gan Ji’s strength surged like a tide, and he attacked frantically in all directions. His eyes were bloodshot, and blood trickled out from the corners of his eyes, looking extremely miserable.
Peng…
A dull sound came out, and a huge splash of water burst out in the Body Tempering Divine Pool. After the pool water fell, the position where Gan Ji was located was empty. On the surface of the pool, only a lot of minced meat and broken limbs were floating, gradually sinking underwater and then being dissolved by the pool water, becoming huge nutrients.
As soon as Gan Ji died, the Body Tempering Divine Pool became even more boiling. A large number of bubbles emerged from the bottom. Yang Kai clearly felt that the power pouring into his body from all directions had increased by a few points, and it hurt so much that he almost cried out.
What Ji Ping said about the sacrifice was not a threat, but true. As a sacrifice, Gan Ji died, and the effect of the Body Tempering Divine Pool would become stronger.
The next moment, Luo Yao’s shrill cry resounded through the sky. This charming and dignified young woman also followed Gan Ji closely and met the same fate as him.
Before dying, Luo Yao’s beautiful eyes were filled with deep-seated hatred. She stared at Ji Ping, as if she wanted to imprint his ugly appearance deep into the soul.
The two of them blew themselves up one after another and disappeared without a trace. The effect of the Body Tempering Divine Pool suddenly increased by a level.
This time, even the strongest Gui Che couldn’t hold on any longer. Regardless of whether it was embarrassing or not, he said urgently, “Ji Ping, save me out, and I’ll give you the Space Ring！”
Ji Ping remained unmoved and looked at him indifferently, saying faintly, “When you die, after the Tempering Divine Pool calms down, I will naturally go down and look for it. I will take away everything in your Space Ring without missing a single thing. Everything here belongs to me.”
“You will suffer retribution！” Gui Che roared continuously.
Ji Ping laughed maniacally, “I’m just waiting, but you won’t have the chance to see it.”
As soon as the words fell, Gui Che completely exploded. The Space Ring on his hand flew into the air, then fell into the pool water and disappeared without a trace.
Ji Ping looked at it with envy, but didn’t rush to collect it.
After waiting for a while, he suddenly said with a strange expression, “How can even the Divine Soul be dissolved？”
He had been on guard against the souls of the dead people escaping, and was also ready to wipe them out completely once they did so, and would never let their souls leave.
To his surprise, there was no trace of the souls of the few people escaping. It seemed that they had also become sacrifices and perished together with their flesh and blood.
After muttering to himself, he suddenly turned his head and looked in Yang Kai’s direction, frowning and saying, “Kid, why haven’t you died yet？”
Yang Kai’s forehead bulged with blue veins as he endured unimaginable pain and torture, shaking his head and saying, “I don’t know. Maybe it’s because my strength is too low. Maybe it’s because I’m still on the periphery. Do you want to come down and check？”
Ji Ping coldly snorted, “Do you think I’m an idiot？”
Yang Kai nodded heavily, “You’re indeed an idiot. You only care about what’s in front of you and don’t even know when someone attacks you from behind.”
Ji Ping’s complexion changed, and he turned his head abruptly just in time to see a man with two horns on his head and covered in blood and filth, hiding his aura and quietly approaching from behind.
“Dickey？” Ji Ping’s soul almost flew out, and his complexion changed drastically.
After seeing the state of this strongDemon Race, he calmed down a lot. Dickey didn’t know what kind of danger and battle he had encountered. There were wounds all over his body, and he looked extremely embarrassed. Moreover, he was alone. All the companions who had originally followed him had disappeared without a trace.
