Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts Chapter 846

Chapter 846: 846

A m.u.f.fled bang came from Long Chen’s pill furnace . A helpless expression appeared on his face .

“It’s been so long since I did any alchemy, I feel out of practice . ” He looked at the pile of pill dregs in his pill furnace . Not even a single pill had formed .

The Seven Stamen Seaheart Fruit was a seventh tier medicinal ingredient, while the Sea Merging Pill was a seventh tier pill . And even amongst seventh tier pills, it would be one of the most difficult to refine .

For most alchemists, their cultivation bases would have to reach Sea Expansion or above just to refine a sixth tier pill .

Last time in the Pill Tower’s compet.i.tion, he had refined the Overflowing Sea Expanding Pill . Although it was a sixth tier pill, it was something used by Sea Expansion experts . Because the requirements and difficulty in refining it were too low, it could not be counted as a seventh tier pill .

A medicinal pill’s tier normally corresponded with a cultivator’s cultivation base: first tier - Qi Condensation, second tier - Blood Condensation, third tier - Tendon Transformation, fourth tier - Bone Forging, fifth tier - Meridian Opening, sixth tier - Xiantian, seventh tier - Sea Expansion .

But there were also some special existences amongst medicinal pills . A prime example was the Overflowing Sea Expanding Pill .

The Overflowing Sea Expanding Pill was one of the common medicinal pills for Sea Expansion experts . Its price was relatively low . Other than the Overflowing Sea Expanding Pill, there were also quite a few other popular medicinal pills with better medicinal effects . But their price was also multiple times higher .

The Sea Expansion realm was also a money-burning realm just like Bone Forging . Borrowing the energy within medicinal pills, it was possible to expand the qi sea even further .

The better the medicinal pill, the greater the medicinal energy . As for the Sea Merging Pill Long Chen was attempting to refine, it was a priceless treasure that Sea Expansion experts would long for even in their dreams .

But in the outside world, he hadn’t heard of the Sea Merging Pill . It seemed that the world no longer possessed this medicinal pill, or perhaps the Seven Stamen Seaheart Fruit was already extinct, so the medicinal pill had also disappeared .

After failing a furnace of pills, Long Chen smiled slightly . He wouldn’t get discouraged by something so reasonable . If the outside world learned that he dared to refine seventh tier medicinal pills with his Xiantian cultivation base, it would definitely frighten many old alchemists to death .

Even alchemists whose cultivation bases had reached Sea Expansion wouldn’t necessarily be able to refine a seventh tier medicinal pill . And even if they could, it would be the comparatively lower level ones, not ones like the Sea Merging Pill . Those that could refine that level of pill would be grandmaster alchemists .

Long Chen rested for two hours before attempting it a second time . In any case, he had a large pile of medicinal ingredients, and he didn’t feel any pressure about failing .

In the end, he failed seven times before succeeding, allowing him to sigh with relief .

In truth, this failure rate was a large blow to him . He was someone who had received the inheritance of a Pill G.o.d . Failing seven times in a row was too embarra.s.sing .

Of course, if people knew that he had refined the Sea Merging Pill with his Xiantian cultivation base, it would definitely shake the entire alchemy world . There were three questions they would ask: Where did he get that much spiritual yuan? Where did he get that much soul energy? And where did he get such a powerful Pill Flame?

Long Chen didn’t just have all three of those requirements, but he also had his Pill G.o.d memories with profound alchemy experience . It would have been strange if he couldn’t refine it .

In the alchemy world, ordinary alchemists could only refine pills one tier below their cultivation base . If they could refine pills on the same tier as their cultivation base, they would be a genius . As for someone who could refine a pill with a higher tier than their cultivation base, there was one word for that: nonsense . No one would believe such a thing .

“Three one-ring pills and the rest are middle grade . They’re pretty much useless . ” Long Chen threw away the middle grade ones, leaving behind only the three one-ring Sea Merging Pills .

He directly swallowed one of them . While swallowing it, he bound it with his spiritual yuan, not letting it immediately dissolve .

That was a seventh tier medicinal pill, one that was used to forcibly increase the size of the qi sea once it had already reached its limit . The amount of energy within it was immense .

If a Xiantian expert ate it, it would be suicide . Once the pill dissolved, the terrifying medicinal energy would directly cause their qi sea to explode . If they were fortunate, they would just immediately die instead of being half-dead from their destroyed qi sea .

Even Long Chen wouldn’t dare to just directly allow it to dissolve in his body . He wasn’t using it to expand his qi sea, but to transform it into spiritual yuan to increase his cultivation base .

There were seven flower marks on the Sea Merging Pill, the same marks that were originally on the Seven Stamen Seaheart Fruit . That was where the fruit’s essence was condensed .

Long Chen tested absorbing the medicinal energy bit by bit . But its medicinal energy was too powerful, and it was like gunpowder to him . As soon as he started refining it, its medicinal energy surged through his meridians .

His meridians swelled as if a river was pouring into a ca.n.a.l . But Long Chen was relieved to see that his meridians were fine . It seemed he had been worried for nothing .

But there was no way around that . His luck really was just so bad that he had no choice but to carefully advance .

After bearing the first wave of medicinal energy, Long Chen was confident . He continued to release the medicinal energy . The energy was like a surging sea cras.h.i.+ng through his body .

This energy, which should have been used to push the limits of the qi sea, had now been used to increase his cultivation base .

That was an exceedingly brazen method, but its effect was remarkable . Long Chen could feel his cultivation base rapidly advancing .

In the blink of an eye, half a month pa.s.sed . Wilde and Little Snow were roving around every day, and the surrounding Magical Beasts had all been consumed by them . Wilde was currently hesitating over whether he should go further .

BOOM! Suddenly, the mountain Long Chen was in exploded and a powerful aura surged into the sky . Long Chen was surrounded by runes as he floated in the air, his eyes s.h.i.+ning with a divine light .

“Hahaha, the Sea Merging Pill really is too powerful!” Just two pills had allowed him to reach the twelfth Heavenstage . He was just one step from the Sea Expansion realm .

His laughter echoed throughout the land, filled with delight . The Sea Merging Pill had an even greater effect than he had imagined .

He had reached the peak of the Xiantian realm now . It had been three months since he had entered the Immemorial Path, and there were still three months until the spiritual qi eruption in the Immemorial Path would occur . That was the best time to advance to Sea Expansion .

But suddenly, Long Chen thought of a problem . The Sea Expansion realm referred to expanding the qi sea . But he didn’t even have a Dantian . Where was his qi sea?

He then suddenly laughed . He really had begun getting afraid over nothing . When had the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art ever disappointed him?

“Brother Long, you’ve advanced to Sea Expansion?” Wilde ran over excitedly . The fact that Wilde even knew about Sea Expansion could count as amazing .

Little Snow also ran over, intimately rubbing his head against Long Chen . Long Chen lightly rubbed his head and laughed, “How could that be possible? I’m just at the peak of Xiantian right now . ”

But Long Chen had advanced two levels since fighting Leng Yueyan . His spiritual yuan was much more robust, and his body had been greatly strengthened . His combat power had definitely increased immensely . He had an urge to find some true experts to fight . In fact, he even formed the slightest urge to go find Leng Yueyan to have a fight, so that they could see just who was stronger in the Xiantian realm .

But then thinking about how Leng Yueyan had her Spirit Blood and could summon that terrifying figure, he became a bit less confident . Then thinking of her practically perfect face, he was speechless . That beautiful, crazy woman said that she would kill him the next time they met . If he wasn’t strong enough, he would be cut down .

He checked the primal chaos s.p.a.ce . When he saw that the huge block of Phoenix Blood Black Gold had shrunk a great deal, he jumped in fright . He also saw that Blooddrinker was still stuck in the ore, motionless . But the runes on it had begun to automatically circulate . A terrifying aura was rising . Although it wasn’t moving, the s.p.a.ce around it was twisting . Even from a distance, it was possible to sense a great pressure .

“What a terrifying aura . Just this aura is enough to make others p.i.s.s themselves . Good, good! When the time comes, just how bada.s.s will it be to roam around the land with this saber on my shoulder?”

Seeing Blooddrinker’s amazing power, Long Chen was incomparably excited . Once Blooddrinker awakened, it would definitely be unimaginably powerful .

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his excitement . With supreme willpower, he pulled his divine sense out of the primal chaos s.p.a.ce . He had almost gotten completely engrossed with just staring at Blooddrinker .

Right now, Blooddrinker was at a critical juncture . Long Chen swore that he definitely wouldn’t disturb it until it awoke on its own .

“Wilde, Little Snow, did you encounter any powerful fellows outside? I want to test my new power on some powerful Magical Beasts,” said Long Chen . His hands were itching for a fight .

Little Snow immediately roared, saying that he knew a place that should have a powerful existence .

Long Chen and Wilde were delighted, and they immediately set off, with Little Snow leading the way . On the way, Long Chen examined Wilde’s body and found that almost all his cells had awoken . There were less than three percent still slumbering .

He was delighted to see that . Once all of his cells revitalized, Wilde’s power would leap to an even more terrifying level . In fact, he might even be able to fight using the Barbarian Blood Bronze Body for an extended period .

Thinking of that, Long Chen felt some apprehensiveness . Wilde’s power was truly too terrifying . That power practically couldn’t be described with words . It wasn’t based on magical arts, nor was it wasn’t based on a cultivation base . It was just brute force . But that brute force was so powerful that it was chilling .

However, Long Chen also thought of another problem . His power might increase, but once all his cells were fully activated, it meant that all his cells would need food . Thinking of that, his scalp turned numb .

They were still advancing when a furious roar suddenly shook the sky . Everything within thousands of miles was trembling . Long Chen hastily raised his head in horror .

“Little Snow, you’re trying to get me killed!”
