Chapter 80: Saving a Hundred Million! The Chaos Azure Thunder Art!
The cultivation method inscribed in the treasure bone—astonishingly, it was related to the Dragon Clan! Moreover, the technique had a bold and domineering name: True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art.
Inside the giant amber, even more remarkably, was encased a young dragon. The fledgling dragon was no larger than a snake wrapped around a wrist, its red scales arranged delicately like a sculpture carved from crystal. Dragon might flowed across the scales, radiating both artistic beauty and a sense of power—elegant yet fierce.
Sadly, the young dragon was already dead.
Yet, even in death, the dragon’s blood pulsed with vibrant vitality and energy. According to the inscription on the treasure bone, by refining the true dragon’s blood and then cultivating the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art, one could guide the dragon’s blood to temper a true dragon’s aura, thus acquiring the Dragon Clan bloodline!
Once the dragon bloodline was obtained, the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art would reveal its true power. As the bloodline concentration increased, the technique would automatically elevate in quality. In other words, so long as one possessed the dragon bloodline and cultivated this art, there would be no need to purchase higher-grade cultivation methods—the power within the bloodline would continually enhance the technique until one became a true immortal.
Upon reading of the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art’s extraordinary effects, Lin Qiye was utterly stunned.
It was outrageous—cultivating a single volume of this art could save tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, in walking points! Even true immortals would covet it, tempted to seize it for themselves.
Lin Qiye’s heart was aflame with desire.
Yet… Lin Qiye swiftly suppressed his excitement, quelling it into the faintest ember.
Across from him, Chen Fan, cradling the treasure bone and amber, wore an exaggerated grin. “Impressive, isn’t it, Night Bro? You’ll surely reach the Nascent Soul realm fastest. I’m entrusting these two treasures to you—when you reach Nascent Soul, refine them immediately, and don’t let anyone find out!”
Chen Fan pushed the treasures toward Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye frowned. “Little Fan, do you realize how valuable these two treasures are?”
Chen Fan nodded. “Of course! But no matter how valuable, they must be usable. I don’t want to be ‘guilty of possessing jade’, attracting trouble. Night Bro’s talent is exceptional, so refine them early, before trouble comes knocking!”
“Quick, keep them safe! The aura of these treasures might draw the attention of powerful beings. Don’t let them be stolen!”
Fear flickered in Chen Fan’s eyes.
Lin Qiye suddenly smiled. “You’re really giving them to me?”
Chen Fan’s expression was frank. “Absolutely. What’s our relationship? Yesterday, when those martial experts ambushed you, I was furious! So, Night Bro, take these treasures—you’ll make the best use of them.”
Seeing Chen Fan’s earnest face, Lin Qiye smiled and shook his head. “Refining the young dragon’s blood requires the strength of a Golden Walker. And breaking the bones inch by inch to forge the True Dragon Overlord Body requires a powerful recovery ability, or else the pain would be fatal. You’re lucky, Little Fan—you have your Night Bro.”
A spark of confidence shone in Lin Qiye’s eyes as he patted Chen Fan’s shoulder.
Chen Fan seemed to catch the implication in Lin Qiye’s words. His face changed, and he drew a sharp breath. “Night Bro, do you mean… you’ve already become a Golden Walker?”
Chen Fan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Seeing Lin Qiye nod, Chen Fan nearly collapsed in awe. “Night Bro, you’re incredible! Only three walks, and you’re already a Golden Walker? An S-grade talent is truly terrifying!”
Lin Qiye only smiled, reaching for the amber.
Milky-white divine thunder surged from his palm, splitting the amber open!
The young dragon was absorbed into Lin Qiye’s hand.
A fragrant dragon aroma filled the air, invigorating both Chen Fan and Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye’s gaze burned as he used his immense thunderous power to refine the young dragon into a ball of dazzling golden blood.
The blood was only the size of an infant’s fist, yet as heavy as a mountain! Even with Lin Qiye’s Nascent Soul Fourth Layer strength, it felt almost overwhelming.
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow in surprise. “As expected, this is extraordinary. If an ordinary person tried to refine this blood, they’d be crushed before succeeding. The failure rate is ninety-nine percent…”
“But, in my hands, failure is not an option!”
Supreme confidence radiated from Lin Qiye’s words, leaving Chen Fan speechless and full of admiration.
In just one day, Night Bro’s aura had transformed, exuding the dominance of a king. Truly worthy of an S-grade talent—a prodigy who became a Golden Walker in only three walks. Unstoppable! Absolutely unstoppable!
Chen Fan was in awe, silently chanting, “Night Bro, my eternal idol!”
While Chen Fan’s thoughts ran wild, Lin Qiye spoke.
“Concentrate, hold your breath, prepare yourself. Let’s begin the tempering.”
With a word of encouragement, Lin Qiye used his formidable cultivation to forcibly divide the true dragon blood into tens of thousands of pin-sized droplets.
Then, he injected a single drop experimentally into Chen Fan’s spine.
“Ah—”
In an instant, Chen Fan cried out in agony. His spine shattered inch by inch, and the excruciating pain soaked him in cold sweat, his hair drenched.
Within a single second—
Chen Fan’s face paled, his body convulsing uncontrollably, like an animal drained of blood.
“Night… Night… Bro, you’d better refine it yourself! I knew it—my talent isn’t enough, I can’t bear it… You have an S-grade talent; you’ll make better use of it.”
Chen Fan’s heart was bleak.
“I’m dying—I can’t fight alongside you anymore… I remember clearly how you were ambushed by Golden Walkers yesterday. I wanted to avenge you, to help you defeat them! But… I’m just too weak…”
Chen Fan clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with reluctance and regret. He looked at Lin Qiye earnestly, as if saying his final words.
Lin Qiye: “…”
“Hold on! With me here, not even the King of Hell could take you today. Endure it—don’t utter a word. If you can’t withstand this pain, how will you avenge me?”
Lin Qiye’s words seemed to carry a mysterious power.
Chen Fan’s expression sharpened; he gritted his teeth. “Yes, if I can’t bear this pain, how can I defy fate?”
“I haven’t fought alongside Night Bro yet! I can’t die now—dying here would be disgraceful!”
A fire blazed in Chen Fan’s eyes.
He bit down, silent, even as his spine fractured and spasms wracked his body.
An indomitable will emanated from Chen Fan.
Lin Qiye nodded approvingly.
“That’s right—you must learn to adapt to such pain.”
“Stay conscious; actively refine the dragon blood while following my guidance to cultivate the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art.”
Lin Qiye’s voice was cold and resonant, echoing in Chen Fan’s ears.
Chen Fan nodded vigorously. “Let’s do it! I can take it!”
Lin Qiye’s eyes grew fierce.
Innate qi and Violet Star qi surged from his palm, guiding tens of thousands of droplets of true dragon blood throughout Chen Fan’s body.
Wherever the dragon blood passed, Chen Fan’s bones shattered with a crackling sound.
Because of the bone fractures, Chen Fan’s body softened, but his determination held him upright, refusing to collapse.
“Excellent—firm will, enduring the ordeal!” Lin Qiye encouraged.
Meanwhile, the innate qi and Violet Star qi rapidly repaired Chen Fan’s internal injuries.
Under Lin Qiye’s guidance, the true dragon blood quickly penetrated the depths of his broken bones, nourishing them and visibly transforming them.
After just a dozen breaths, the pulverized bones re-formed, binding together into a denser, tighter structure, suffused with golden dragon might!
When the tempering was complete, the bones in Chen Fan’s body erupted with the crackling sound of roasting soybeans. Each inch of bone glowed with dazzling golden light!
A wild power burst forth inside him, sweeping through the cultivation chamber.
At the same time, the energy within the true dragon blood surged into Chen Fan’s body, expanding his meridians and dantian.
His cultivation soared at a visible rate, like a spring flood!
In an instant, he leapt from Foundation Establishment Third Layer to the peak of the Golden Core!
Not long after, he advanced from the Golden Core peak, instantly forming a pseudo-infant and lighting up the eight heavenly gates!
“I’ve reached the level of a Golden Walker!”
“Night Bro, you’re amazing! Absolutely amazing!”
“You’re truly my big brother!”
Upon realizing he’d gained the true dragon’s aura and opened the eight heavenly gates, Chen Fan was so excited his voice broke.
He prostrated himself, exaggerating his admiration.
He was utterly awed by Lin Qiye—this was strength beyond comprehension! Truly worthy of Night Bro!
Chen Fan was full of respect.
For Chen Fan’s exaggerated gesture, Lin Qiye smiled gently. “Actually, it’s the true dragon’s blood and the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art that are extraordinary. Your opportunity is truly heaven-defying!”
Yet Chen Fan shook his head. “No, Night Bro is the most incredible. No matter how miraculous these treasures are, without you, I could only stare helplessly.”
Chen Fan understood the true priorities.
Without a doubt, Night Bro was the one who deserved the greatest credit.
He smiled, feeling the surge of power within his body, and was unconsciously filled with delight.
But when he looked up, trying to assess Lin Qiye’s cultivation, he found himself utterly unable to discern its depth.
Chen Fan was stunned once more, nearly speechless.
“Night Bro, why can’t I see through your cultivation? Are you really that terrifying?”
Lin Qiye chuckled. “Your True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art can conceal your cultivation. Hide it—not until necessary should we reveal ourselves; for now, we’re just ordinary Silver Walkers.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan gave a strange laugh of understanding and quickly concealed his cultivation at the Golden Core Third Layer.
After hiding his power, Chen Fan looked at Lin Qiye with gratitude and a hint of hesitation.
“If you have something to say, say it,” Lin Qiye said coldly.
Chen Fan finally spoke: “Night Bro, do you have a million walking points? Could you lend me a million? If I reach Nascent Soul First Layer, I’ll obtain a treasure—I want to retrieve it.”
Lin Qiye didn’t hesitate.
As a tycoon with seventeen million and five hundred thousand in walking points, a mere one million was nothing.
In an instant, Lin Qiye completed the transaction with Chen Fan.
Seeing the new million in his hands, Chen Fan was stunned, his breath quickening.
“Night… Night Bro, what kind of monster are you? Can you really just hand over a million walking points?”
Lin Qiye’s expression was calm, radiating a relaxed air as if it were nothing.
Chen Fan could only sigh in awe, then quietly spent the million walking points to raise his cultivation to Nascent Soul First Layer.
Upon breaking through to the true Nascent Soul realm, Chen Fan was elated, his eyes shining with wonder and excitement.
His hands trembled as he retrieved a treasure bone from the space within his life lamp gem.
“Night Bro, the boy I saved was actually the reincarnation of a celestial immortal. He gave me another opportunity.”
“Look—this is the Chaos Azure Thunder Art. It requires a thunder-root bone to cultivate.”
“The stronger the root bone, the higher the quality of the Chaos Azure Thunder Art. The cultivation method in this treasure bone is even stronger than the True Dragon Immortal-Slaying Art!”
As he spoke, Chen Fan carefully handed the Chaos Azure Thunder Art to Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye raised his brows. “Your luck is truly heaven-defying!”
Chen Fan smiled, unable to help but shower praise, “No matter how lucky I am, Night Bro is even more impressive—my idol, my god.”
“Night Bro, I really can’t cultivate this one! Surely you won’t refuse again?”
After his flattery, Chen Fan spoke seriously.
Lin Qiye nodded. “I’ll take it. Thanks, Little Fan.”
“This miraculous cultivation method could save a hundred million!”
Lin Qiye clicked his tongue in astonishment.
Chen Fan was full of pride.
“What are you thanking me for? I should thank you! You helped me refine a super opportunity. Such a chance, I might not manage even after a hundred, two hundred walks. Night Bro, you were a huge help!”
Chen Fan grinned with innocent joy.
Lin Qiye patted his shoulder. “Good brother!”
With that, Lin Qiye calmed himself and crushed the treasure bone to cultivate.
Soon, Lin Qiye mastered the Chaos Azure Thunder Art.
Currently, the Chaos Azure Thunder Art could be cultivated to Nascent Soul peak, but fifth layer required five million walking points, and sixth layer required six million.
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment.
“To fully master six martial arts requires eight million walking points. Let’s max out martial arts first—they boost combat power by six hundred percent.”
After considering, Lin Qiye burned eight million walking points, raising all six martial arts to perfection.
Then, he spent five million walking points to reach Nascent Soul Fifth Layer.
At this moment, Lin Qiye was an undisputed veteran Golden Walker.
Even against Platinum Walker Li You, he could escape for twenty minutes.
“Not bad—the increase in strength is obvious. Unfortunately, only four and a half million walking points remain… not enough.”
Lin Qiye sighed softly.
Beside him, an exhilarated Chen Fan was overjoyed.
“Night Bro, it’s almost evening. Let’s barbecue in the villa! Today we shouldn’t walk anymore. Eat, drink, and rest—that’s the way!”
Chen Fan suggested enthusiastically.
Lin Qiye nodded. After a life of hardship, he deserved some enjoyment.
Thus, Lin Qiye and Chen Fan relaxed, leisurely barbecuing in the villa garden.
The meat came from the most delicious beasts of the main world.
Roasting over charcoal, sprinkled with cumin and spices, the sizzling fat and enticing aroma filled the villa, making passing walkers salivate uncontrollably.
Perhaps the fragrance was too tempting, for ‘Jiang Qingxue’ in her blue combat attire descended gracefully.
Upon seeing Jiang Qingxue, Chen Fan, mouth full of meat, nearly choked.
“Isl… Isl… and… Lord!”
Facing Jiang Qingxue, Chen Fan was a little nervous; after all, her aura was cold and distant.
Yet Chen Fan’s anxiety was directed at the wrong person.
Because… the girl before him was not actually Jiang Qingxue.
Though she looked identical to Jiang Qingxue, her temperament was obviously different.
