Chapter 328: Massive Points, the World is Shaken!
The outside world.
Above the massive college entrance exam leaderboard.
Yu Changsheng's ranking surpassed Chen Yan's for the first time.
Moreover, the points were still surging.
Waves of discussion erupted.
Even though everyone had foreseen that Yu Changsheng's points would surpass Chen Yan's, when it actually happened, the public still used it as a new topic of conversation.
"Yu Changsheng is truly worthy of being a heaven-gifted talent of the older generation."
"Chen Yan has already been stunning enough; he's actually quite good."
"He is quite good; it's just that he gave people too much of a shock before, so now it's actually a normal phenomenon."
"Even Zhang Luobai has the momentum to surpass Chen Yan, tsk tsk tsk, the college entrance exam is almost over, the heaven-gifted talents are all exerting their strength."
As the crowd discussed, an old man sat in the park, laughing and chatting with others:
"Yu Changsheng, let me tell you, I've had my eye on him for a long time."
He took a sip of tea, dressed in wealth, clearly much richer than the rest of the people in the park.
The old man was from a noble family; a few days ago, because of the Chen Yan incident, many people from the noble family alliance had not dared to go out.
Today, Yu Changsheng surpassing Chen Yan counted as venting some frustration for many in the noble family alliance.
"Chen Yan, keep practicing," the old man said with a laugh, but he suddenly discovered that the person beside him was not looking at him, but at the high sky behind him.
"Hm?" The old man let out a soft sound of surprise and followed the crowd's gaze.
Immediately after, his eyes and mouth slowly widened just like the person beside him.
Everyone's expressions synchronized to a terrifying degree.
"How is this possible!!!"
A scream erupted from the old man's mouth.
…………
The second layer of the Dream Abyss.
"Chen Yan, walk on, keep walking on!"
Xue Qi's voice was as light as a goose feather, slowly dissipating within this blood-red world.
He carried endless joy, carried satisfaction, and a final trace of emotion:
"If only you had appeared sooner."
The lingering heat of battle was still rolling and spreading; the entire second layer of the Dream Abyss was like the end of the world, with broken walls and ruins, and cracked earth visible everywhere.
Those flesh-intestines connecting the earth to the high sky became scorched and withered, turning into countless fragments that slowly drifted away.
The malice of the world gradually vanished.
As Fei Yi died, one ancient divine beast after another died suddenly, turning into countless Dao-Slashing points that surged into the Dao-Slashing Bamboo behind Chen Yan.
A massive amount of Dao-Slashing points!
A Dao-Slashing seed that had just been taken out by Chen Yan sprouted rapidly, and the fifth bamboo node grew out in almost an instant.
And it was still growing!
The fifth node of the Dao-Slashing Bamboo could be exchanged for Morning Star-grade precious medicine, or Blue Vault-grade martial arts.
The sixth node could be exchanged for Bright Moon-grade precious medicine or Blue Vault-grade martial arts.
But to make the Dao-Slashing Bamboo grow a sixth node required 2.5 billion Dao-Slashing points.
This was also the reason why Chen Yan had not been accumulating Dao-Slashing points to let the Dao-Slashing Bamboo grow a sixth node.
Because all the points he had obtained from entering the college entrance exam secret realm until now were only five hundred-plus million.
But now, boundless, scarlet Dao-Slashing points were rushing in; this was a massive opportunity Chen Yan had never obtained before.
All the ancient divine beasts in the surrounding world died; they seemed to have a special connection with Fei Yi, and once Fei Yi died, these ancient divine beasts could only die as well.
Therefore, the Dao-Slashing points Chen Yan was obtaining now were the massive points containing the entire second layer of the Dream Abyss's ancient divine beasts.
But Chen Yan did not let this Dao-Slashing Bamboo absorb all the points at once.
When this Dao-Slashing Bamboo had absorbed 80 million Dao-Slashing points, Chen Yan's intent flashed immediately.
This Dao-Slashing Bamboo shattered, and waves of precious medicine information appeared deep in Chen Yan's mind.
Immediately after, a pearl emitting silver light appeared in Chen Yan's hand.
【Life Immortality Pill】.
A Morning Star-grade second-class healing precious medicine; Chen Yan had already exchanged for it once.
The effect was extremely good.
Chen Yan took it immediately, and a faint radiance emerged around his body, like moonlight, light and wondrous, extremely strange.
He had been injured extremely severely this time.
Fei Yi was also the strongest enemy Chen Yan had ever encountered.
In a battle that did not last long, Fei Yi had forced Chen Yan to the brink of death several times.
The reason he could kill it in the end was that Chen Yan himself had advanced to the Half-Step Origin realm, Fei Yi was also heavily injured, and Xue Qi had joined in to strike.
Formidable to this extent!
However, the reason Chen Yan was in such a sorry state was also because all his own Qi and blood had been drained away by Xue Qi.
Within the college entrance exam secret realm, Chen Yan's strength in both the Qi and blood path and the hard-body path had been greatly improved.
But before the battle, Chen Yan's Golden Body refinement level had already reached over ninety percent.
Moreover, through previous practice, he had learned to execute fist intent with a long spear.
Chen Yan's strength in the Qi and blood path was much higher than his hard-body path.
Immediately following, Chen Yan took out another Dao-Severing Seed and continued to absorb Dao-Severing points.
This Dao-Severing bamboo continued to grow.
Chen Yan also sat cross-legged and began to heal his wounds.
…………
Family Alliance, Xiaoyang City Branch.
Inside the cultivation room, sword light overflowed from Chen Changyuan's body, incomparably sharp.
"I have already grasped a trace of the mysteries of the Sword Soul."
A smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Chaos is a ladder, the birthplace of true powerhouses.
His own split soul has mastered Yu Changsheng's body, and Yu Changsheng will also reveal peerless talent in the college entrance examination secret realm.
Times have changed, but the true heaven-proud ones are still those from the past.
Knock, knock, knock...
The sound of violent knocking on the door rang out.
Chen Changyuan's eyes flashed with cold light; he opened the door and saw Luo Dongli outside, her face deathly pale and filled with shock.
"Give me a reason, otherwise..." Chen Changyuan was just saying.
Luo Dongli hurriedly spoke instead:
"Honored One, you must quickly look at the leaderboard!"
Chen Changyuan's brows furrowed even deeper.
He sighed inwardly, his own split soul was still unable to suppress the heart that desired to be strong.
In fact, he had long anticipated that his split soul would become number one on the college entrance examination leaderboard.
Even, that he would become the person with the highest total points in the entire Xia Kingdom for this college entrance examination.
This was very unfriendly to Chen Changyuan's plans.
The fact that he could not control his own split soul was probably something only he, Chen Changyuan, would do.
His eyes were cold and sharp; he stepped out of the cultivation room slowly and walked toward the balcony.
Luo Dongli, however, had already appeared on the balcony in a rush.
When she saw that name and those points once again, she was still stunned.
"Honored One, this is not reasonable!" Luo Dongli said tremblingly:
"It is too unreasonable!"
Chen Changyuan said indifferently:
"Is there anything unreasonable about Yu Changsheng taking first place?"
"No..." Luo Dongli hurriedly explained:
"It's not that!"
As she was speaking, Chen Changyuan also looked toward the leaderboard at this moment.
Immediately following, he fell silent, his pair of eyes becoming incomparably sharp, as if he could hardly believe it.
It was hard to imagine that the invincible Chen would show such an expression.
Just then, on that huge leaderboard.
The name of Chen Yan was shining brilliantly.
【First Place Chen Yan: 3,320,000,000】
Chen Changyuan narrowed his eyes and stood there in a daze.
He kept looking at that number, as if to confirm whether he had misread it.
"Honored One..." Luo Dongli said, her red lips moving.
She was thinking whether the Family Alliance should not have set itself against Chen Yan at all.
This kind of thing, she had never seen in her entire life.
Yet, Chen Changyuan's expression had already turned gloomy.
"If I remember correctly, he only had over five hundred million yesterday?"
He said in a low voice:
"How could he possibly obtain 2.7 billion points in such a short time?"
He was even somewhat suspicious.
Unbelievable.
…………
Dream Abyss.
While Chen Yan was healing.
"Du!"
An incomparably excited cry rang out, and a little girl, covered in blood and gore, crawled with extreme difficulty to the other end of the shattered street.
One of her eyes was already destroyed, and blood was flowing all over her body.
But even so, dragging a long trail of blood, she raised her hand toward Chen Yan at the end of the street.
"Du... wu... du du..."
That one eye, shining like a precious pearl, contained tears as she looked at Chen Yan from afar.
All around, more crawling members of the human race appeared.
They kept howling, tears and mucus streaming down, saying things that Chen Yan could not understand at all.
There was no smile in Chen Yan's eyes; he flicked one hand, and a wisp of silver light emerging from his body was drawn away.
This was a wisp of medicinal essence belonging to the 【Immortal Life Pill】.
Even a single wisp was enough to heal the hundreds and thousands of humans in this place.
Chen Yan flicked his hand, and this touch of silver light transformed into spring rain, falling down to envelop the little girl and the other humans.
Instantly, cries of comfort to the extreme rang out.
The powerful medicinal strength contained within the 【Immortal Life Pill】 not only repaired their physical bodies but also healed their spirits.
Hundreds of humans just fell into a deep sleep like this.
They were not strong, and even after the battle broke out, their instinct for survival had made them flee far away.
But quite a few people were still caught in the aftermath of the battle; some died, and some were severely wounded.
…………
Inside a distant villa.
Chen Xiyuan had slept very comfortably; it had been a long time since she had slept so peacefully.
The more Chen Yan stood out, the more she felt he was becoming difficult to control.
After all, Chen Yan's initial points lead over the others was too great.
Fortunately, the speed at which Chen Yan gained points had slowed down over the last two days.
Chen Xiyuan stretched her body, walked to the living room, poured herself a glass of red drink, and was just drinking it when she suddenly paused.
From the side of the living room where she was, she could just see the giant leaderboard hanging in the sky above Xiaoyang City.
Just now, Chen Xiyuan hadn't intentionally looked at it, only caught a glimpse with her peripheral vision.
But it was in this very instant of seeing it from the corner of her eye.
Bang!
The glass in her hand suddenly fell to the floor, and the red drink splashed out.
Boom!
Chen Xiyuan turned her head in an instant, her eyes staring fixedly at that distant, giant leaderboard.
Her expression was grave, then immediately twisted, even becoming somewhat bewildered and lost.
"Impossible!"
She actually let out a scream, completely unable to believe what she was seeing.
Before she went to sleep, Chen Yan had only had a little over five hundred million points.
In the time it took her to take a nap, did Chen Yan go and drink points?
Even if he drank them, how much would he have to drink to reach 3.3 billion points?
Had such a thing ever appeared in the history of the College Entrance Examination?
Chen Xiyuan's entire body's Qi and blood surged; the first thing she wanted to do at this moment was actually to check the time.
She searched frantically, and only then did she take out her phone, like someone riding a donkey while looking for a donkey.
She thought she had suddenly slept for over ten days.
Otherwise, how could such an absurd thing happen?
But when she saw the date was 【November 15th】, she doubted life even more.
"Chen Yan, what have you done!!!"
………………
In this battle, Chen Yan was both a warrior and a butcher.
The fragility of life was like a blade of grass inadvertently crushed underfoot when a beast treads across the earth.
"The growth of life often begins with struggling after constantly facing darkness and light."
He said quietly.
Behind him, within a space, a faint spatial ripple appeared.
But he was too tired; his consciousness was being hypnotized by the powerful medicinal strength of the 【Immortal Life Pill】, and his physical body was slowly recovering.
He did not notice this spatial ripple.
And in the next moment, this spatial ripple slowly dissipated, as if it had never appeared.
Chen Yan's consciousness began to blur again, but a more powerful will did not let him fall into a deep sleep this time.
The Dao-Severing Bamboo was still growing, and at a certain moment, it grew its sixth segment.
It stopped producing after absorbing all the points.
This battle brought Chen Yan a full 2.7 billion Dao-Severing points!
Vast, unimaginable.
It was as if the trials Chen Yan experienced in the Dao-Severing Forest were all in service of this moment's harvest.
Only, it was hard for a smile to appear on Chen Yan's face anymore.
He was not sad; the Lord of Will would not be sad.
He was just a bit melancholy.
The entire story of the Dao-Severing Forest, with the dissipation of Xue Qi and the death of the Fei Yi, reached its conclusion at this moment.
But those cries of humanity seemed to still be echoing in his ears.
For some reason, he was locking eyes with a pair of eyes.
It was a stone wall, an old man sitting alone on the stone wall, that pair of turbid eyes carrying endless vicissitudes.
Locking eyes with him.
A very blurry feeling, as if it were an illusion.
Chen Yan did not know if this was the reason for the 【Immortal Life Pill】.
Immediately following, that piece of Dao-Slashing Bamboo, which had absorbed a full 2.6 billion-plus, shattered.
Streams of exchange information appeared deep within Chen Yan's mind.
Information on one precious medicinal herb after another appeared, along with their medicinal effects.
Bright Moon-grade precious medicinal herbs!
Morning Star-grade martial arts!
And Morning Star-grade First Class healing spirit medicines!
One treasure after another, precious to the extreme.
At this moment, Chen Yan only needed a flash of thought to obtain them.
But the Bright Moon-grade precious medicinal herbs were too precious; Chen Yan had to choose carefully.
Especially now.
Chen Yan was about to thoroughly enter the Origin Realm of the Blood Qi path, creating his own unique Origin Space and Origin Divine Body.
Yes, the greatest characteristic of the Origin Realm of the Blood Qi path was that a martial artist would give birth to their own Origin Space.
Space Rings were made by utilizing the Origin Spaces of the deceased.
Experts of the Origin Realm all grasped a sliver of spatial power.
Many Origin Realm martial artists hid within the void precisely because they could open up space and hide within the nothingness.
This was a method many in the Origin Realm used to conceal themselves.
But Origin Realm martial artists could not travel through the nothingness, because once they traveled, there was a high probability they would lose their coordinates and be unable to leave the nothingness.
As for the second characteristic of the Origin Realm, it was the Origin Divine Body.
The Origin Divine Body was the second blood-qi body of an Origin Realm martial artist; it could only exist within the Origin Space, but it could store blood-qi.
The Divine Body connected to the Origin martial artist's body, much like an expansion of their own physical body.
The larger the Divine Body, the more blood-qi could be stored within it.
A powerful Origin Realm martial artist, upon swinging a palm, would unleash blood-qi like a sea, vast and mighty.
They were not Chen Yan, not at the Fifth Crossing of the Golden Body, unable to store vast blood-qi, but the Origin Divine Body solved this problem.
Chen Yan began to select the precious medicinal herbs.
Time slowly passed, and Chen Yan finally made his selection.
Immediately following, a glass bottle the size of a palm, filled with gold sand, appeared in Chen Yan's hand.
Within this gold sand was contained vast blood-qi energy; it looked like just a small bottle.
But its weight was a full one ton.
