Chapter 429
A few days later, Chen Ang's body had recovered almost completely. There were twists and turns, but his own strength had been greatly improved. The Old Dean's drop of origin essence was constantly improving his body strength, and his power was getting stronger and stronger, which was a very good thing.
Xing Tian called Chen Ang over and exhorted, "You should know about the inner demon incident a few days ago, right? As a genius, it's acceptable to have pride, but remember to know how to weigh the pros and cons."
"Chen Ang, you are my precious disciple. I don't want too many accidents to happen. From today on, you must learn to control your emotions and don't give the inner demon any chance. Do you hear me?"
"Hehe, Master, don't worry. If I can't even control my own temper, how can I face difficulties and troubles in the future?"
"Good, this is what my disciple should look like. Next, no matter what Master does, you must persist."
After speaking, he took out his weapon and stabbed Chen Ang's right leg with a spear, saying, "How is it? Are you angry now?"
Chen Ang gritted his teeth and said, "No!"
After being attacked by several consecutive spear strikes, it was obvious that the negative emotions in Chen Ang's body were changing. He exhorted, "Brat, you say no with your mouth, but look at your emotional fluctuations. Do you believe that if I attack a few more times, the hostility in your body will increase more and more?"
"Remember the feeling of anger just now. Go back and think carefully about what's going on. If there is really a situation of devilish deviation, I will personally cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. It concerns the face of the Wuqu Academy; there can be no mistakes. Do you hear me?"
Only then did he realize that the situation just now was indeed a bit wrong, so he quickly said, "Master, don't worry. I will definitely go back and find a way to suppress and eliminate it. It won't affect the safety of the Wuqu Academy."
After returning, he recalled everything that happened just now carefully, but found that his control over his emotions was getting worse and worse, and sometimes he would even be swayed by emotions. Could it be the influence brought by the inner demon?
It shouldn't be. Logically speaking, this situation shouldn't occur. It's really getting harder and harder to accept. He must find a way to calm down.
Just at this moment, Wan Wan Shitong's voice came from outside. Seeing that his boss had recovered, he said, "Boss, you're finally better. I don't know how worried I was. I really thought you might leave a few days ago."
Chen Ang asked, "Wan Wan Shitong, is there any way to control one's emotions? I feel like I'm losing control more and more. If this continues, I will really go into devilish deviation."
"Boss, I really can't help you. Some things have to be solved by yourself. Perhaps it was the psychological shadow left when you fought Master Xing Tian last time that caused this. I believe it will improve after a period of time. Don't worry."
"If you want to become a powerhouse, these are all things you should face. It's useless to keep struggling. Instead, it will bind your heart, which is completely not worth it."
"Wan Wan Shitong, thank you for your guidance. My mood is much better. Just face it with a normal mentality. I will calm down next."
The two came to the outskirts of the Wuqu Academy and saw Demon Beasts attacking the human race on the road. They were all low-tier Demon Beasts, which they solved easily.
Last time, the Demon Beast Forest invaded on a large scale and left after getting the divine beast egg. There hadn't been any large-scale attacks, but this kind of small-scale harassment was unavoidable. The law of the jungle must sometimes be followed.
Just at this moment, he suddenly felt a huge aura. Wan Wan Shitong took his weapon and exhorted, "Boss, I can feel that it's a Demon Beast aura, very terrifying. There is someone being chased and killed in front. Shall we save him?"
"Nonsense, they are all human race. I would feel bad if I didn't save him. Take action quickly."
After speaking, the two gathered their strength and began to attack the high-stage Demon King Demon Beast. It was quite thick-skinned. They spent a lot of effort to solve it.
Looking at the seriously injured man in front of him, Wan Wan Shitong said, "What should we do? He is seriously injured. Let's take him back to the Wuqu Academy. It's quite dangerous to stay here. I don't have many healing pills on me, not enough to treat him."
They took the man back to the Wuqu Academy. After treatment by a specialized teacher, the man woke up and asked, "How is it? Is it convenient to move now?"
The man said seriously, "I've recovered almost enough. I, Feng Xiu, thank the two of you for saving my life. It just so happens that I have something I want to discuss. I am a human born and raised in the Demon Beast Forest."
"I rely on the natural treasures in the Demon Beast Forest to cultivate. I just happened to find a few Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits, which can enhance the absorption speed of spiritual energy. It's just a pity that these Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits are guarded by Demon Beasts."
"I was just about to leave when I was discovered by the Demon Beasts. Relying on my peak Tier 9 cultivation, if it weren't for the help of the two of you, I would definitely have died without a burial place. This time, I want to take the two of you to see if we can take down the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits."
Chen Ang asked suspiciously, "How is the strength of the guarding Demon Beasts nearby? If the three of us take action at the same time, is there any hope of winning?"
Feng Xiu explained seriously, "There are two guarding Demon Beasts, and their strength is at the peak of the Demon King. If we really fight, it will indeed be a bit troublesome, but I still want to try. Maybe we can."
"How about this? After getting the things, I only want one of them to cultivate and break through to the Spirit God Realm, and I will hand over all the rest. I will never keep them privately. Are you interested in trying?"
Chen Ang thought for a while and said, "Rest first. Let us consider it and tell the teachers of the Wuqu Academy about the situation to see if we can get support from the teachers."
After leaving the room, Wan Wan Shitong said, "Boss, I think we can try. Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits are such good treasures, and they have huge benefits for spiritual energy cultivation speed. We must get them."
"The relationship between the Demon Beast Forest and the Wuqu Academy is particularly tense, leading to more and more difficulty in obtaining natural treasures. This is a great opportunity; we must not miss it."
Chen Ang said seriously, "This matter must be carefully considered. Don't worsen the conflict between the two major forces. From Feng Xiu's explanation, this matter is likely true."
"Our cultivation speed is actually not bad. If we can get the help of the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits, it will be a huge improvement for our own strength. Risk and benefit coexist. We can try. Maybe we can turn a misfortune into a blessing."
"Hehe, I think so too. Let's tell Master Xing Tian. If we can get Master's support, even if something really goes wrong, there will be someone to help cover our retreat."
462: Feng Xiu's Decision
Hearing the news, Xing Tian couldn't help but say, "Are you really sure you want to do this? Brat, think it through. There are two peak Demon King guardians next to the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits. As for whether there are higher-level ones, it's not certain. There are too many dangers."
"Master, don't worry. I believe it's a great opportunity. This is just telling you in advance. If a Demon Beast above the Demon King appears, just help block it. You don't have to kill it."
"Fine, go ahead. With me here, there will absolutely be no mistakes. This is the jade pendant, the same old rule. If you crush it, I will arrive immediately. Those guys in the Demon Beast Forest won't dare to act rashly."
According to Feng Xiu's guidance, they came to the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits and saw two peak Demon King level Demon Beasts. He exhorted, "Wan Wan Shitong, let's each delay one Demon Beast and give Feng Xiu enough time to pick the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits."
"Remember, act fast. Don't drag your feet. This is the only opportunity. If you miss it, you are likely to be surrounded. Put your heart into it and don't be afraid."
Feng Xiu said seriously, "Is there really no problem? My cultivation is at the mid-stage of the Spirit God Realm, but if we really fight, it's indeed a bit difficult to deal with the peak Demon King."
Wan Wan Shitong said indifferently, "My strength is not bad, and I can barely deal with it and persist for a period of time. If it's too long, there will definitely be a life danger."
The two peak Demon Kings pounced over. Chen Ang and Wan Wan Shitong released their auras to delay them. This was Chen Ang's first time fighting a peak Demon King alone.
The aura on his body was obviously much more terrifying than the Demon King level. He was defeated after a few moves. The gap between realms was too large. He felt a bit hard to accept in his heart.
He was particularly unwilling. He used the Ice God Spear Technique to constantly consume the physical strength of the peak Demon King. After twists and turns, Feng Xiu reached the location of the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits.
Just after picking two, he attracted the attention of the peak Demon King. Chen Ang and the other spent a lot of effort to barely hold them back, and put the last Heavenly Origin Holy Fruit into his clothes.
Wan Wan Shitong took out the treasure prepared in advance to temporarily control the two peak Demon Kings. Just as they were about to leave, they felt a terrifying aura.
"Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits are not something the human race can possess. Obediently put down the Holy Fruits and leave. Otherwise, don't blame this Demon Saint for taking action. I guarantee you will die and have no burial place."
The Demon Saint's cultivation was too high. Helpless, Chen Ang summoned Xing Tian. Xing Tian looked at the Demon Saint in front of him and couldn't help but say, "Tian Yan Demon Saint, long time no see. Resources should be obtained by young people. Why bother with the juniors?"
"It's you, Xing Tian. I'd like to see if you have that strength. Is this your personal opinion, or the opinion of the Wuqu Academy? If you don't make it clear, it's hard to solve."
Tian Yan Demon Saint said seriously, "This matter concerns whether I can break through to a higher realm, so I definitely can't let it go. Obediently hand it over, and I can let you leave."
Xing Tian didn't show weakness either and erupted with the same aura, which made Tian Yan Demon Saint hard to accept and also added a lot of wariness. There was no chance of winning in a battle at the same level, let alone his own cultivation was only at the mid-stage of the Demon Saint. Facing the peak Emperor Realm, he couldn't fight at all.
"Peak Emperor Realm, it's indeed a bit hard to imagine. There are indeed not many who can reach this realm at this age. But if you want to capture these few people today, no one can stop me."
Both sides fell into a heated situation. Neither was willing to take action, knowing that if they did, they would definitely be doomed.
After a stalemate for a period of time, Tian Yan Demon Saint said helplessly, "Leave three Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits for this seat to break through to the high-stage Demon Saint, and I will let bygones be bygones. This is my bottom line; it can't be lower."
"No way. The Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits are in my disciple's hands. If you want me to take them out again, it's absolutely impossible. I know your strength is powerful, but at worst, we'll risk our lives."
"Is it really worth it to do this? Do you believe that with one word, these few brats will be on the blacklist of the Demon Beast Forest? The moment they enter the Demon Beast Forest next time, what awaits them is a dead end."
"Everyone can make harsh threats. There's definitely no problem taking action at the same level, but if the older generation wants to bully my disciple by relying on living a few more years and having a higher realm, it's absolutely impossible."
Tian Yan Demon Saint had a headache. He really couldn't beat Xing Tian, but on second thought, he should save his life first.
"Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that I have something to do, I would definitely reason with you. Don't let me see these few brats next time. Otherwise, I will definitely kill them!"
After speaking, he left in a sorry state. Xing Tian said, "Fortunately, I greeted him in advance. No wonder there were peak Demon King guardians. Brat, don't cause such big trouble next time."
Seeing Xing Tian's strength and the cultivation environment of the Wuqu Academy, Feng Xiu quickly said, "Are you from the Wuqu Academy? I want to join the Wuqu Academy. Can you give me a chance? I will definitely cherish it."
Xing Tian saw that Feng Xiu's strength was quite good, bold and careful, so there should be no problem. He said, "Your strength, cultivation, and talent are not bad. Don't worry. Being able to live in the Demon Beast Forest for such a long time, you must have unique advantages."
"Remember, the Wuqu Academy is a big family. You cannot do anything to betray it. I will give you a chance for a test. As for whether you can pass, it depends on your ability."
After returning to the Wuqu Academy, they began to absorb the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits. Chen Ang clearly found that the spiritual energy cultivation speed was much stronger than before. Such Holy Fruits were terrifying.
He felt that he would be able to break through to the high-stage Spirit God Realm in a while. By then, he would have stronger power, and even if he faced a peak Demon King, he would have the power to fight.
This time, fighting alone against a peak Demon King, using a god-level technique like the Ice God Spear Technique, it was still a bit difficult to resist. The gap was indeed too large, which made Chen Ang feel particularly unbalanced.
After the closed-door cultivation ended, Xing Tian said, "How is it, brat? These Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits are quite powerful, right? You and Wan Wan Shitong each took one, and gave Feng Xiu one. Do you have any arrangements for the rest?"
Chen Ang saw Master Xing Tian's little thoughts and quickly said, "Master, this thing has no use. Just take it. I believe these Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits can help more juniors break through and let the Wuqu Academy create more geniuses."
"Haha, I am very happy to have this idea. Students of the Wuqu Academy must have this spirit of selfless dedication. Don't worry, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
"If there are any cultivation resources you want, tell me, and I will try my best to fight for them. I still have this right."
Chen Ang knew clearly that he had to be polite at this time. His Master was cunning, so he just exchanged pleasantries. If he really lacked resources, it would be a matter of one sentence, completely not needing to be so troublesome.
What's more, the Heavenly Origin Holy Fruits were extremely special. One person could take at most one. Excessive use would have side effects, which was completely not worth it, so just treat it as a favor.
463: Space Channel
The Demon Dragon Pavilion was brewing a huge conspiracy. A while ago, they discovered a space channel. If they could open the space channel, the connection between the entire Perished World and the Demon World could directly pass through the Sin Prison, and then they could obtain victory.
But just at this critical moment, an accident occurred. The disciple responsible for the space channel was caught by the Wuqu Academy, which made the Pavilion Master particularly angry. He must find a way to kill him to silence him.
At a critical moment, any disturbance might affect the entire battle situation. The Pavilion Master exhorted the Great Elder, "Great Elder, this matter concerns whether we can directly pass through to the Perished World. You should know what the result is, right?"
"If necessary, we can sacrifice the lives of some people to obtain victory. We must not let the disciple say what he knows. Otherwise, something big will happen."
"It was not easy to bypass the Sin Prison and enter the Perished World. If we miss it, it will be very troublesome to explain to Demon Lord. We must ensure nothing goes wrong."
The Great Elder smiled and said, "Pavilion Master, don't worry. I know it in my heart. This time, I will definitely kill that disciple, and I will find a way to protect that space channel."
"Good, that's how it should be. I will tell Demon Lord and try to get more powerhouses to help with the action. The current situation is particularly complex. At critical moments, we must know how to sacrifice to complete the task."
"Don't worry, Pavilion Master. My family was killed by the Wuqu Academy. It's useless for me to live. If it really comes to a critical moment, at worst, we'll perish together. I will definitely not leak the news."
After getting Demon Lord's affirmation, after a while, two mysterious powerhouses descended from the sky and appeared in front of the Demon Dragon Pavilion Pavilion Master.
One of the powerhouses said, "We were sent by Demon Lord. This space channel concerns the entire Demon race's strategic plan for the next step. There must be no problems."
"This time, with Demon Lord's treasure, it is enough for us to go to the Perished World. Great Elder, you go and kill that disciple, and we two brothers will delay the people of the Wuqu Academy. Remember, this time we must not fail. There is only this one opportunity."
On the other side, Chen Ang was still cultivating in the secret room when he was called over by Master Xing Tian. Here, he saw many powerhouses, at least above the Emperor Realm, even more terrifying than his Master. Since when did the Wuqu Academy have so many powerhouses? He didn't even know. ===== CHAPTER 430 =====
