Supreme Devouring God

Bloodline Warriors differed from other martial artists in one unique aspect: within their bodies, special bloodlines were born.

Some Bloodline Warriors had an abundance of bloodlines within them, while others had fewer.

The most crucial point.

These Bloodline Warriors could absorb the bloodlines from within a Demon Beast Inner Crystal.

Thus, they could use an ability known as 'Bloodline Awakening,' which would imbue their own strength with a special amplifying power.

That's why the combat power of many Bloodline Warriors was extremely terrifying.

Obviously, a Qin Chen at the Second Layer of Body Refinement, yet with a strength comparable to the Third Layer, led them to the mistaken belief that Qin Chen was a Bloodline Warrior.

"No! Qin Chen is not a Bloodline Warrior!"

Someone shook their head.

"When Bloodline Warriors use Bloodline Awakening, their aura becomes suddenly stronger, but Qin Chen did not."

"It must be that Qin Chen's Cultivation Technique inheritance is special!"

Someone spotted the key point.

"If that's the case, then Qin Chen's Cultivation Technique inheritance must definitely be above Earth-level, right? Even Earth-level Techniques might not have such capabilities!"

They expressed their amazement.

On the Fighting Platform.

"How about it? Admit defeat?"

Qin Chen smiled, looking at Zhu Yan.

His Cultivation was at the Second Layer of Body Refinement, but his strength had fully caught up with that of the Third Layer.

With equal strength and superior Martial Arts,

Zhu Yan could hardly be anything but defeated, under such circumstances.

"You think you can make me admit defeat? Dream on!"

A burst of rage exploded inside Zhu Yan, who, despite the pain, tried again to counterattack against Qin Chen.

"Zhu Yan is already defeated!"

Seeing Zhu Yan's actions, many people below the platform shook their heads repeatedly.

With such severe injuries, his condition had become extremely poor.

Such a counterattack was meaningless.

Whoosh!

As expected.

Faced with Zhu Yan's counterattack, Qin Chen's casual punch sent him flying out.

Zhu Yan lay on the ground, his injuries even worse.

"If you won't admit defeat, then I will keep you company to the end!"

Qin Chen said with a smile.

Zhu Yan glared with fury in his eyes, then suddenly stopped.

He knew, despite his unwillingness, that the result was that he had already lost.

Seeing that Zhu Yan didn't continue the counterattack, Qin Chen reached out with a smile.

"The stone coins, please."

Qin Chen looked at Zhu Yan with a smile.

As soon as Zhu Yan heard this, he spat out another mouthful of fresh blood.

Reflecting on the whole affair, he felt like crying.

It was utterly nonsensical.

To think that he had just lost five stone coins!

Five stone coins,

Which he would have to save for half a year to earn.

And now...

All gone in vain.

And the key point was,

He had lost them all to the same person.

Suddenly, Zhang Chengfeng from below the Fighting Platform spoke up.

"Qin Chen, are you sure that for a mere three stone coins, you want to offend Zhu Yan?"

Zhang Chengfeng looked at Qin Chen.

Anyone could hear the threat in Zhang Chengfeng's tone.

Qin Chen remained impassive.

He then looked indifferently at Zhang Chengfeng.

"Do you have a say in this matter?"

Qin Chen's words were shocking.

Everyone below the Fighting Platform was startled.

Dominant. Such a commanding statement.

"You!"

Zhang Chengfeng was incredibly aggravated.

"If you're unwilling to accept it, then come up here and fight me."

Qin Chen smiled at Zhang Chengfeng.

Suddenly, Zhang Chengfeng was speechless.

His strength was roughly on par with Zhu Yan's, or even a bit lower.

Zhu Yan had been so brutally defeated, and for him, well, there was no need to discuss it.

Going up there meant he would be the target of a beating.

"Don't even have the courage to fight me, was I wrong in what I said just now?"

Qin Chen's expression was icy.

Previously,

Zhang Chengfeng had mocked and insulted him, but Qin Chen, having a grand heart, did not take him to account.

However...

This doesn't mean Qin Chen was a good-natured person.

"You just wait! My brother will teach you a lesson!"

Seeing that Qin Chen was not at all afraid, Zhu Yan immediately became furious.

With so many people watching, he couldn't go back on his word.

He had no choice but to hand over the three stone coins to Qin Chen and then left angrily.

"Threats?"

Qin Chen smiled faintly.

He would handle whatever came his way.

He wouldn't give up the three stone coins he had just earned just because of Zhu Yan's threat.

Qin Chen stepped down from the Fighting Platform.

Below the platform, a path was consciously cleared for him.

"A new disciple has such courage?"

Seeing Qin Chen's calm demeanor, everyone was quite surprised.

"Isn't Zhu Yan's brother the strongest disciple in Yi Courtyard? Qin Chen is going to be in big trouble now!"

Someone discussed.

...

Inside the Saint Institute's room.

Qin Chen was sitting cross-legged.

In his hands, there were five stone coins.

"Body Refinement Third Layer, I wonder what secrets lie inside this God Devouring Crystal?"

Qin Chen was filled with a bit of anticipation.

The five stone coins were enough for Qin Chen to break through to the Body Refinement Third Layer.

Qin Chen was very much looking forward to the secret that was about to be revealed.

God Devouring Enlightenment Technique, activate!

Shua shua!

Streams of energy were absorbed from the stone coins and surged into Qin Chen's body.

The absorption was incredibly fast!

In just a few minutes, one stone coin was completely refined by Qin Chen.

"Continue!"

Qin Chen relentlessly pressed on.

Today, he was determined to break through the Body Refinement Third Layer.

Then!

Two coins! Three coins! Four coins!

Body Refinement Second Layer Mid-Stage!

Body Refinement Second Layer Late Stage!

Body Refinement Second Layer Peak!

Soon, four stone coins were completely refined by Qin Chen.

At the same time.

Qin Chen could also feel the abundant power within his body.

The feeling of being on the verge of a breakthrough became even stronger.

"Charge!"

Qin Chen roared lowly.

The God Devouring Enlightenment Technique operated frantically.

Rollicking energy poured in, striking against the Realm Barrier.

Boom!

In an instant, Qin Chen felt a thunderous roar within his body.

At the same time.

A surge of power many times stronger than before burst into Qin Chen's entire body.

He had broken through!

Body Refinement Third Layer!

A gleam of ecstasy shot from Qin Chen's eyes.

He had finally reached it.

The Body Refinement Third Layer was now achieved, and next was the most crucial step.

To unlock... the God Devouring Crystal!

"Now, let me open this God Devouring Crystal and see what secrets it holds!"

Qin Chen's heart was brimming with anticipation.

During this period.

He had been practicing his cultivation relentlessly, all to reach the Body Refinement Third Layer as soon as possible and uncover the secrets within the God Devouring Crystal.

He had a feeling that the secret was far from simple.

Having waited so long to open the God Devouring Crystal, Qin Chen was naturally filled with expectation.

Power, activate!

Rolling strength instantly enveloped the God Devouring Crystal within Qin Chen's Dantian.

Then, Qin Chen realized.

His power was directly swallowed by the God Devouring Crystal.

"Swallowed? What's going on?"

Qin Chen was startled, confused.

However, the next moment, an unexpected change occurred.

Boom!

Qin Chen only felt a severe jolt in his mind, as if a light dizziness was setting in.

And when Qin Chen opened his eyes, his gaze revealed a flicker of astonishment.
