Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 350: Chapter 348: The Path of the Dragon Pill (4 more!)

“Next up is the Dragon Pill Realm…” Su Han muttered to himself.

For Su Han, whether it was the Dragon Vein Realm, the Dragon Blood Realm, or the current Dragon Spirit Realm, they were all no different from an ordinary person.

It wasn’t because he possessed a mage’s cultivation base, but rather, the Dragon Pill Realm would represent a qualitative leap for Su Han.

The Dragon Pill Realm, as the name implies, is about condensing a Dragon Pill to be considered as having reached the Dragon Pill Realm.

And the Dragon God Realm is the same, except what is condensed in the Dragon God Realm is the Primordial Spirit.

After the Primordial Spirit is condensed, one will possess a second life, while after the Dragon Pill is condensed, it can store a large amount of nature’s spiritual energy for emergency needs.

...

Others cultivate by condensing Dragon Pills with nature’s spiritual energy. In his previous life, Su Han also condensed with nature’s spiritual energy.

But this life is different.

This life, Su Han has the Demon Dragon Emperor Technique and the memories of nearly a hundred million years, having seen various methods of condensing Dragon Pills, as well as immortal cultivators condensing Golden Cores.

Condensing with nature’s spiritual energy is merely lower-class.

“Demon Dragon Emperor Technique, while using the Dragon Vein Emperor Technique to absorb nature’s spiritual energy, and the Dragon Spirit Emperor Technique to devour it. But what is devoured is not only nature’s spiritual energy!”

“What is nature’s spiritual energy? Is it the spiritual energy that exists between heaven and earth?”

This question, Su Han had asked himself countless times.

But after he took his seat at the Holy Domain and became the Sovereign, he finally thought of an answer.

This nature’s spiritual energy is not only the spiritual energy that exists between heaven and earth, but everything that exists between them!

People live in the world, amongst heaven and earth; this very fact is a manifestation of nature’s spiritual energy.

They live by absorbing nature’s spiritual energy, they are born borrowing it, and they exist by using it.

They themselves are nature’s spiritual energy!

Just like the Demon Cores of demon beasts—it can’t be said that they condense Demon Cores because their cultivation base is sufficient, since starting from First Order Demon Beasts, Demon Cores exist.

And how do they absorb nature’s spiritual energy? How do they learn to condense Demon Cores?

Like humans, who have different aptitudes: some are ordinary, some are mediocre, some are geniuses, some are freaks.

Why is that?

This all because, inherently, they are a product of the blend of heaven and earth’s spiritual essence, born from nature’s favor.

They have always been nature’s spiritual energy!

Su Han does not need to absorb nature’s spiritual energy to condense his Dragon Pill, but rather… he needs to merge with others’ Dragon Pills!

Within the Dragon Pills, the entire dragon power of cultivators is stored, as well as various comprehensions of heaven and earth, collectively referred to as realm.

By devouring their Dragon Pills, integrating their Dragon Pills, one can extract all their realm and transform it for personal use.

Many people think the higher the cultivation, the stronger the realm.

But in reality, in his previous life, after Su Han ascended to the Sovereign Realm, he finally understood that realm has nothing to do with cultivation base.

Like the Laws of Five Elements, which is the most common law between heaven and earth; like the Destruction Law, which belongs to the High-Grade Law; and like the Law of Time, which is the Ultimate Law.

Some people, with the Laws of Five Elements, condense High-Grade Divine Personality and become Upper Rank Gods.

While some, with the Law of Time, condense Lower-Class Divine Personality and become Lower Rank Gods.

Upper Rank Gods are immensely stronger and more terrifying than Lower Rank Gods, and yet their laws are worlds apart.

How, then, can one say that realm is related to cultivation base?

Learning others’ realms, comprehending others’ realms, integrating others’ realms, that’s what constitutes the superior path!

Just like ordinary people, some are erudite, some have never been to school, but sometimes, those who have never been to school might unintentionally say something that causes the erudite to be lost in thought.

Su Han knew that with the memories of his past life, the cultivation realm of his past life, he was far superior to the people of Dragon Martial Continent.

But, this was not the end.

His goal in this life was not to reach the Sovereign Realm, but to… break Destiny!

“Nine is the limit, one is the beginning; fusing with one Dragon Pill is indeed Breaking Life, fusing with eleven, is just the same!”

Su Han’s eyes shone brightly, as the Demon Dragon Emperor Technique inside him roared into action, drawing in endless spiritual energy from all directions, swirling into a vortex, vying eagerly to merge into Su Han’s body.

However, with a thought, Su Han immediately blocked all this nature’s spiritual energy from entering his body!

“To others, the Dragon God Realm might require a realm, but for me, from the very beginning, I needed a realm.”

Su Han murmured, “This nature’s spiritual energy contains too many impurities. Although it is ubiquitous, simple, and easily absorbed, ultimately, it is only spiritual energy.”

…

Half a month later, Su Han emerged from his room.

Dressed in white, with his hands clasped behind his back, he radiated an aura yet remained at the peak of the Dragon Spirit Realm.

People around were greeting Su Han, but he did not respond; his eyes were filled with contemplation.

When his contemplation ceased, Su Han had reached the square.

At the moment, thousands of people were gathered there, their gaze fixed on the Phoenix sculpture.

Next to the Phoenix stood two figures.

It was Xiao Yuran and Xiao Yuhui.

They stood to the left and right of the Phoenix’s head, with their right hands open and index fingers extended, as if about to point down.

But after standing for half an hour, their fingers remained suspended in the air, their eyes closed, not falling.

This Phoenix was purposefully crafted by Su Han for the Dragon God Realm!

Just as with the three paintings in the plaza of the God-Slaying Pavilion before.

Now, those three paintings were gone, blasted to pieces by the Grand Elder of the Jade Void Palace, leaving only the lifelike giant Phoenix standing in the square.

When it was being made, Su Han had instructed the artisans not to create the eyes of the Phoenix.

The artisans were puzzled, as the giant Phoenix seemed perfect in every aspect except for lacking eyes.

To those artisans, this felt like a fishbone stuck uncomfortably in their throat.

They did not know, Su Han did this to enhance the realm of the Dragon God Realm!

For the Dragon God Realm, a hint of realm is still the Dragon God Realm, a mass of realm is still the Dragon God Realm!

Yet between the two, even with the same cultivation base, there would be a vast disparity in strength.

“It’s not like this…” Xiao Yuhui suddenly spoke, murmuring to herself.

A struggle appeared on her beautiful face, as if she was wrestling with something.

And in the moment she spoke, Xiao Yuran suddenly opened her eyes, and her index finger abruptly touched upon the eyes of the Phoenix.

“Hum~”

In that instant, the Phoenix, a thousand meters long, suddenly emitted a humming sound. Immediately thereafter, a colossal illusion erupted from its body.

Everyone was stunned, disbelieving.

Because that illusion was of Xiao Yuran!

Only in this illusion, Xiao Yuran’s body had expanded to ten meters, just like Liushui Wuhen’s Giant Spirit Body!
