Chapter Eleven: Innate Primordial Spirit

At this moment, Ye Nichang exuded a fierce aura of the Heavenly King Realm. Clearly, Chu Tianchen’s newfound vitality had propelled her directly through the barrier and into the Heavenly King Realm.

Yet, Ye Nichang did not look friendly at all.

Her lively eyes seemed about to blaze with fire, and her entire being radiated an intense, fiery temperament.

“She’s already stepped into the Heavenly King Realm, yet the poison of the Yin-Yang Harmonious Powder within her hasn’t been cured?”

“To recover from such grievous wounds was possible, but this mere love poison can’t be dispelled?”

Chu Tianchen muttered to himself as he observed Ye Nichang.

Having just inherited the Dragon Emperor’s legacy, he was now well-versed in the art of alchemy. Although he could not yet concoct pills, preparing some spirit elixirs was within his capability.

The poison of the Yin-Yang Harmonious Powder could actually be expelled with a single Grade Three Clear Wind Pill.

But at present, not to mention having a Grade Three Clear Wind Pill, he didn’t even have the herbs to make one. Moreover, even if he did have the ingredients, he wouldn’t be able to refine it.

“Miss, don’t act rashly,” Chu Yang said, his mind racing for a solution.

“I have a way to save you.”

Within the Dragon Emperor’s inheritance, he found a peerless acupuncture technique capable of drawing poisons from the body.

Just as he prepared to take out a silver needle, Ye Nichang had already reached his side, and an intense heat surged towards him.

Looking up, Chu Tianchen saw Ye Nichang gripping his arm.

Feeling the heat radiating from her body, he frowned. “This isn’t Yin-Yang Harmonious Powder poison? Then what is it?”

His expression showing puzzlement.

In the next moment, Ye Nichang pinned him to the ground.

Her hands, burning crimson, pressed against his chest, the scorching heat causing Chu Tianchen, just reborn, to feel a burning pain.

With a ripping sound, his clothes were torn by Ye Nichang, revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

Chu Tianchen immediately sensed danger.

He wanted to resist, but the one pressing him down was a Heavenly King Realm expert. Though he had just unlocked his Ten-Thousand-Foot Chakra Wheel, he was still only a Tongmai Realm warrior.

If he had known this, he would have subdued her and cured her poison when he first reached the Land Immortal Realm.

At this moment, Ye Nichang had clearly lost her reason; the fire and rage completely engulfed her consciousness.

After struggling beneath her for several minutes, Chu Tianchen could no longer resist and had to surrender.

He looked at the woman. Though she had lost reason, she could not hide her peerless beauty. Her fiery gaze still held a hint of clarity, and from her eyes, Chu Tianchen even saw a trace of helplessness and despair.

Her skin was fairer than snow, delicate as cream, with a faint sheen, especially flush now, making one almost unable to resist touching it.

Her exquisite features bore no flaw.

Among his original seven fiancées, none could compare.

Now, with her clothing torn by him, her partially revealed skin caused Chu Tianchen to swallow hard.

Having just undergone rebirth, his youthful vigor could hardly withstand such temptation.

“Then come at me. Grandpa always taught me that suffering losses is a blessing,” he said.

“Today, I’ll suffer a little to save your life.”

Chu Tianchen spoke, eagerly removing his own clothes.

At this moment, he also understood what had happened to Ye Nichang—it was related to her constitution. She had ascended relying on her reborn vitality, but what dwelled within her seemed uncontrollable.

Chu Tianchen discerned that within her abdomen resided a fire-attribute primordial spirit.

An innate primordial spirit.

On the continent, every warrior, upon reaching the Martial Dao Grandmaster realm, awakens a primordial spirit. A primordial spirit is akin to a person’s soul, condensed through soul energy.

Primordial spirits come in many types: divine weapon primordial spirits—such as sword, blade, spear—formed by condensing soul energy, which, when summoned in battle, greatly enhance combat power.

There are also primordial spirits of beasts, divine beasts, elemental spirits like wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

Some with overwhelming soul energy and powerful primordial spirits can even elevate their combat prowess to another level.

However, it is well known that to condense a primordial spirit requires reaching the Martial Dao Grandmaster realm.

This demands immense mental and soul power, far beyond the capacity of ordinary warriors.

Of course, the continent is full of wonders.

The Dragon Emperor’s legacy records this clearly.

Some people are born with companion primordial spirits, also called innate primordial spirits.

Such a primordial spirit resides within the body from birth, absorbing the host’s vitality and blood energy from childhood. When it matures, it might even break through the body, escaping the host’s control and directly slaying its master.

Ye Nichang was undergoing the maturation period of her innate primordial spirit.

It was as if she were possessed by demonic fire.

Chu Tianchen had just received the inheritance of the Ice Yi Divine Dragon, his body suffused with Ice Yi Dragon Qi. So how could Ye Nichang possibly let him go?

...

Chu Tianchen and Ye Nichang embraced each other.

In the void, it appeared like a strange phenomenon of a Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix entwining with an Ice Yi Giant Dragon—two divine beasts locked in fierce combat.

...

Within the surrounding forest, spring flourished in full bloom.

After about two or three hours, Chu Tianchen suddenly felt darkness cloud his vision and fainted.

It was not until dawn the next day that Chu Tianchen slowly opened his eyes.

He hurriedly looked around; the place was barren, and he was naked, but Ye Nichang was nowhere to be seen.

He quickly dressed himself.

“This is no dream. It seems I truly lost control,” he muttered.

“Hiss!”

Then, a sharp pain shot through his waist.

“The Heavenly King Realm is truly formidable. Luckily, I passed out; otherwise, these bones would have been shattered.”

Chu Tianchen said lightly.

Though he spoke thus, a faint smile curved his lips, a trace of lingering satisfaction evident.

If there was one shortcoming about last night, it wasn’t that he couldn’t endure, but that he had been passive the entire time.

If there was a next time, he would certainly take the initiative.

He then hurried to the Medicine Valley, searched for some healing herbs, and rushed to the bamboo grove courtyard.

His grandmother’s injuries were severe and still awaited him.

Along the way, he also hunted and caught several mountain pheasants, worn out and hungry after the ordeal of the night.

After watching Chu Tianchen leave, Ye Nichang emerged from the shadows, clenching her fists as she gazed fiercely at his departing figure.

She was a dignified princess, yet she had lost herself in such a place—and to a mere Tongmai Realm warrior, no less.

“That’s not right. He’s only Tongmai Realm, so why could he withstand my Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix primordial spirit power?” she pondered.

“It seems my injuries were also healed by him. Could he also be from the Great World?” Ye Nichang said curiously.

“Forget it. Once I get that item, I’ll leave this wretched place. We won’t cross paths again,” she added.

Then, she turned and headed toward Yunhai Academy.

Unbeknownst to her, Chu Tianchen’s next destination was the very same place!
