Chapter 1571 Heaven Refining Immortal Physique
<You have acquired the title ''An Evolved Physique''>
<You have acquired the title ''Physique Merger''>
Yuan inspected his body after acquiring the Heaven Refining Immortal Physique. His body was iparably stronger than before, whether in strength or durability. If his body couldn''t handle the Immortal''s attacks previously, his current body would have no problem shrugging them off.
The difference was akin toparing dried mud to steel. There were also several other changes that urred within his body, but he had no idea what they could be for the time being.
"Don''t move, you demon!" A loud voice with a hint of terror suddenly resounded, snapping Yuan out of his daze.
He shifted his head to look at the person who''d just spoken—one of the pursuers.
"What did you just call me?" Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"There''s no use hiding it! That ridiculous regenerating ability is unique to demons!" Yuan was speechless, but he didn''t me this individual for mistaking him for a demon. After all, he would''ve probably done the same if he were in that man''s shoes, as his regenerating ability was acquired through Demon Cores, so the pursuers weren''t wrong.
"I understand your confusion, but rest assured, I am not a demon." Yuan calmly said.
"Shut up! Do you think I''m stupid or something?!"
The pursuers outright ignored the Immortal, whom they had been chasing for months, to focus on Yuan, who was a much bigger threat to the Nine Heavens than the escapee.
"I don''t think you''re stupid… for now. If I were a demon, I would have horns and a crystal, wouldn''t I?" Yuan exposed his torso so show that he had no demon crystal on his body.
"You''re definitely taking me for a fool! High-ranking demons don''t have horns and crystals! They look no different than humans!" "So you''re suggesting that I am a Demon Emperor who looks no different than humans? How could a Demon Emperor be a mere Spirit King? And why would I bother to risk exposing myself to fight that immortal?" Yuan asked.
The pursuer couldn''t find a logical exnation immediately and momentarily became speechless.
"You''re obviously hiding your cultivation! There''s no way a Spirit King could emit Immortal Qi! I don''t know why you''re fighting with the escapee, but that doesn''t prove you''re not a demon!" One of the pursuers eximed.
"That''s right! You''re a demon hiding in human skin!" Another joined.
Seeing how the group of immortals prepared to kill him, Yuan sighed, "You guys must be quite weak if it requires four of you to chase after a single escapee. Come, I''ll y with you." The group of immortals immediately exploded with anger after being provoked by Yuan.
"If we can''t capture him, kill him!"
"Kill me? Even though I''m a demon? You should probably get the Demon Sealing n instead." Yuanughed out loud.
The immortals'' faces flushed red before surrounding him in a formation.
"Golden Lotus Prison!"
The four of them worked together to quickly create a powerful formation around Yuan. Although they were only Tier 5 Array Masters, they were able to create a Tier 6 formation in the blink of an eye together.
Yuan suddenly found himself entrapped inside a golden lotus that slowly drained his spiritual energy.
When Kn saw this, he thought about intervening, but he wanted to see how Yuan would deal with this situation first. As long as Yuan''s life wasn''t in danger, he decided to remain as a spectator.
However, with Yuan''s regenerating ability rivaling demons, Kn was no longer worried that he might die.
The immortals, aware that their chances of killing Yuan were slim despite the disparity in their cultivation, resorted to using a formation specifically designed to capture entities as resilient as Yuan.
"Do you want me to destroy the formation for you?" Yu Ning, who had been silently watching this entire time, suddenly spoke.
"No, it''s fine. I want to test out my new physique." "Okay…"
Yuan suddenly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
The very next moment, the prison around Yuan suddenly began breaking down, almost as if it were slowly being devoured by an invisible force.
"W-what the fuck?!"
"The formation''s losing energy!"
"That''s impossible!"
"T-that demon bastard is absorbing the formation''s Immortal Qi!"
"What?! How is he doing that?! Techniques are sealed within the Golden Lotus Formation!" Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.
"It must be one of his demon abilities!"
"H-hey! Escapee! Help us kill this demon, and we''ll give you freedom!" One of the immortals turned to look at the escapee.
"Are you serious? Even if I want to kill him, you saw for yourself that I am unable to do so." The Misty Fox said.
"That''s only if you''re fighting alone! If the five of us work together, there''s still a chance!"
The Misty Fox couldn''t reject the possibility of freedom and agreed to help the immortals.
"The more the merrier." Yuan smiled.
<Your understanding of Immortal Qi has significantly increased!>
After consuming Immortal Qi directly, Yuan''s understanding of Immortal Qi skyrocketed, causing the Immortal Qi he exuded to be more apparent and profound.
''This is the perfect opportunity for me to understand Immortal Qi.'' Yuan found a reason to fight these immortals.
The five immortals, each restricted to the Divine King, began bombarding Yuan with techniques infused with Immortal Qi.
To Yuan, enduring these hits with his bare body felt like being struck with a sledgehammer. However, unlike before, it wasn''t enough to destroy his body and merely bruise it.
<Your understanding of Immortal Qi has increased!>
Moreover, whenever their attacks struck Yuan, his Heaven Refining Immortal Physique would automatically absorb some of the Immortal Qi, weakening the force of their blows and strengthening his body even further.
Suddenly, Yuan''s aura surged, and his Dantian expanded.
<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>
<You have met the requirements for a breakthrough!>
<You have reached First Level Spirit Emperor!>
Amid the battle, Yuan had a breakthrough and finally escaped Spirit King, bing a Spirit Emperor!
