Chapter 152: Extreme Torment, Gold-Swallowing Beast: Arhat Golden Body

Su Yu poured out a drop of King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood and instantly swallowed it into his mouth.

This was the essence blood of a demon clan King-Conferred Strong One.

Pitch black like ink.

At the moment that drop of King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood appeared, a series of roars suddenly echoed throughout the entire cave.

Roar! Roar! Roar!!!

Like a beast's roar, it shook the whole cave.

The earth trembled slightly, as if it could not bear this terrifying energy.

Even Su Yu's face instantly turned incredibly ferocious.

Inside his body, the pitch-black King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood instantly spread out, making Su Yu look as if he had turned into a black person.

In an instant, intense pain flooded Su Yu's entire mind.

At this moment, Su Yu had only one feeling.

Pain! Too painful!

The Heaven Sword King beside him slightly changed his expression.

"Sure enough, swallowing King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood in the Golden Body Realm, even the golden body can hardly withstand it, even the Immaculate Golden Body is no exception."

Only seen, behind Su Yu, a dark-golden golden body slowly emerged, like an angry-eyed Buddha.

Powerful power surged into Su Yu's body, as if to dissolve the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood within him.

However, the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood was simply too powerful.

Even the power of the Immaculate Golden Body, under the might of the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood, was as insignificant as an ant.

Know that a drop of King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood requires a King-Conferred Strong One to spend a month to refine.

It contains the myriad powers of a King-Conferred Strong One; even after leaving the King-Conferred Strong One, it can still be well preserved.

And now, Su Yu has swallowed that drop of King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood, naturally triggering the essence blood's automatic defensive instinct.

Yet even this defensive instinct, the power and energy emanating from the essence blood, made Su Yu's entire soul tremble.

As if he were experiencing some great terror.

Outside.

The Heaven Sword King gazed at Su Yu, looking at his ferocious face, feeling somewhat unwilling.

He suddenly let out a cold snort.

"Hmph! Mere essence blood, dare to act recklessly!"

Instantly, from the Heaven Sword King's body, an extremely powerful pressure spread out, enveloping Su Yu.

However, this pressure was not directed at Su Yu.

But at the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood inside Su Yu's body.

The Heaven Sword King himself is a King-Conferred Realm existence; adding the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood, which is not within his main body, the power he can unleash is only that much.

Facing suppression from the same realm, he was naturally instantly suppressed as well.

He released surging energy, no longer defending.

But even so, how surging is the energy within the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood?

If the energy of the inner elixir of the Great Sun Grand Master that Su Yu previously swallowed were compared to a small stream, then the energy within the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood would be like the Yellow River and Yangtze River.

Rolling in.

Just one-tenth of that energy completely filled Su Yu's meridians with countless energy.

Moreover, some fragile meridians began to break bit by bit under this energy.

"Ah!!!!"

Su Yu's face was incredibly ferocious; blue veins burst out on his face and neck.

He endured immense pain.

The Heaven Sword King's expression was somewhat panicked; King Wen's estimate was correct—if using the energy within the King-Conferred Strong One's essence blood, it really might be possible to forge an Arhat Golden Body.

But they overlooked one thing.

That is, can a Golden Body Realm powerhouse truly withstand the energy of a King-Conferred Strong One?

Know that a Golden Body Realm powerhouse, when facing a King-Conferred Strong One, the latter can easily release pressure to crush the former into powder.

Not to mention releasing energy.

The Heaven Sword King shouted lowly.

"Su Yu, steady your mind; pain is inevitable; guide the energy within the essence blood into your golden body, break then rebuild—just as you forged the Immaculate Golden Body, now begin forging the Arhat Golden Body!"

The Heaven Sword King anxiously looked at Su Yu.

Even though he is a King-Conferred Strong One, in this situation he cannot easily intervene.

He can only rely on Su Yu's own willpower to achieve this.

At this moment, Su Yu only felt his head about to split open.

Every part of his body ached.

It was as if countless poisonous snakes were gnawing at his body.

This pain was far stronger than when he previously swallowed the Great Sun Grand Master's inner elixir.

Faintly, the Heaven Sword King's voice transmitted into Su Yu's mind.

"Carefully, focus! Circulate the cultivation method!"

Speaking intermittently, Su Yu could barely hear these three words.

Circulate the cultivation method!

Exactly!

A flash of light flickered through Su Yu's mind.

My Devouring Demon Heart Method has an extraordinary suppressive power against demons, doesn't it?

Although I'm only at the entry level now, as long as I can suppress even a little, for the current Su Yu it's a relief.

Without any hesitation, Su Yu endured the intense pain, even though it nearly made him faint to death.

Gradually, the Devouring Demon Heart Method began to operate.

A cool current of Qi began to emerge, point by point, in his dantian.

The moment that cool current appeared, Su Yu felt his mind become light.

The previously scorching pain was weakened a bit under this cool flow.

Although still extremely intense, it was much better than before.

Su Yu rejoiced.

Continuing to run the Devouring Demon Heart Method, more and more currents of Qi formed inside, gradually being carried by Su Yu to every part of his body.

As time passed, the fierce expression on Su Yu's face gradually relaxed.

After an unknown amount of time, the cool currents of Qi filled Su Yu's entire body.

Previously, the wildly violent energy, under the operation of those cool currents, became as gentle as a reformed person.

Su Yu tried to control the power of the Sealed King Essence Blood and suddenly discovered that he could easily manipulate those raging energies.

Overjoyed, Su Yu did not hesitate; he guided the Sealed King Essence Blood to slowly flow into his Golden Body.

The instant the Sealed King Essence Blood entered the Golden Body, Su Yu's whole body jolted.

Immediately after, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.

His complexion turned extremely pale in an instant.

Behind Su Yu, the dark‑golden Golden Body began to develop cracks, point by point.

As time passed, those cracks grew larger, becoming grotesque like a spider web.

In the next moment, under the gaze of the Heavenly Sword King.

The dark‑golden Golden Body shattered instantly!

Bang!

The Immaculate Golden Body shattered instantly, turning into dark‑golden fragments that fell into the Spiritual Qi pool.

The Heavenly Sword King's pupils suddenly narrowed.

"Immaculate Golden Body... shattered?"

The Heavenly Sword King was somewhat puzzled.

One must know that the Immaculate Golden Body is said to be the hardest Golden Body, yet it shattered at this moment?

However, at that moment, a faint white‑jade‑like radiance began to flicker point by point in Su Yu's dantian.

The Heavenly Sword King suddenly looked over and, with his astonishing eyesight, made a startling discovery.

That speck of white‑jade radiance was about the size of a grain of rice.

Yet, within that tiny radiance was a complete human figure.

And that figure was unmistakably Su Yu's!

The Heavenly Sword King's spirit jolted, and he instantly burst into joy.

"I knew it, Senior Brother wouldn't be wrong; indeed, the power of the Sealed King realm is one of the best materials for forging an Arhat Golden Body!"

The Heavenly Sword King laughed.

The energy of the Sealed King Essence Blood continuously surged into that grain‑of‑rice‑sized white‑jade Golden Body.

With the passage of time.

The grain‑of‑rice‑sized Golden Body kept expanding, eventually reaching the size of a soybean.

And Su Yu's aura gradually began to stabilize.

However, the Heavenly Sword King's expression grew solemn.

One should know that a typical Golden Body is comparable in size to an ordinary person, yet the current Arhat Golden Body is only the size of a soybean.

What does that indicate?

It indicates that it has not succeeded.

However, at this point, the Sealed King Essence Blood ceased delivering energy; the energy of a single drop was completely drained!

The Heavenly Sword King barked.

"Su Yu, keep taking it, do not interrupt the energy!"

The Heavenly Sword King said, while controlling the energy in the Spiritual Qi pool, continuing to pour it into the Arhat Golden Body; the energy flow must not be interrupted, otherwise all previous efforts would be wasted.

Su Yu did not hesitate, and the Devouring Demon Heart Method reached its utmost.

Countless cool currents of Qi circulated within his body.

Su Yu directly poured out two or three drops of Sealed King Essence Blood, a hint of madness flashing across his face, and he forcibly swallowed three drops!

The Heavenly Sword King, seeing this, couldn't help but mutter.

"Madman, truly a madman!"

Yet even so, the Heavenly Sword King could only manipulate the surrounding Spiritual Qi, continuously nurturing Su Yu's Arhat Golden Body!

The energy of the three drops of Sealed King Essence Blood instantly burst forth, and under the suppression of the Devouring Demon Heart Method, all the energy was channeled into the Arhat Golden Body.

The Arhat Golden Body, under the potent energy, kept expanding.

After an unknown amount of time, the Arhat Golden Body had grown to a size of one inch, vastly larger than before.

However, what made even the Heavenly Sword King burst into curses was that the energy of the three drops of Sealed King Essence Blood was exhausted again.

"Damn it, what the hell, three drops of Sealed King Essence Blood just disappeared?"

The Heaven Sword King Capital burst out swearing; this Arhat Golden Body is practically a gold-devouring beast—having merely grown to the size of one inch, it actually directly consumed four drops of King-sealing essence blood!

This time, without the Heaven Sword King's reminder, at the instant when the energy was about to be exhausted, Su Yu grabbed the jade bottle containing the remaining ten drops of King-sealing essence blood.

In one gulp, he directly poured the remaining essence blood into his mouth!
