Chapter 241 Absolute Defense Xuanwu Armor
Chen Yang naturally paid extra attention to this Golden Core Condensation Pearl!
Speaking of this bead, he also has to thank that bitch Ma Xinran.
If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been able to obtain such a treasure!
What Chen Yang cared about more was the Spirit Turtle Bloodline Battle Skill that he would have a 100% chance of obtaining after consuming the Golden Core Condensation Pearl!
That's the legacy of a Golden Core Realm Spirit Turtle!
As for the beads' ability to significantly improve one's blood and qi, dantian meridians, and spiritual energy concentration, Chen Yang wasn't particularly concerned about these things.
It wasn't that he disliked it, but Chen Yang knew that with his current strength and physique, he simply couldn't absorb even one-thousandth of the energy in this Golden Core Condensation Pearl!
This is, after all, the transformation of a Golden Core Realm spirit beast after its death, and the energy it contains is truly terrifying!
If I were already at the Foundation Establishment or Divine Power realm, it would naturally be of great benefit. But right now I am only at the Golden Body realm, so being able to absorb one percent is already quite good!
Even worse, the energy might be so great that one simply cannot withstand it, causing one's dantian to burst!
While Chen Yang was still pondering, the Golden Core Condensation Pearl entered his body and suddenly exploded with a "boom"!
The next moment, a tremendous amount of energy surged from his stomach to his limbs, bones, and acupoints!
Caught off guard, Chen Yang collapsed to the ground with a thud!
Immediately afterwards, a strong surge of spiritual energy erupted from every pore of his body!
"Sizzle—Boom!"
Chen Yang's clothes were instantly torn to shreds!
At this moment, Chen Yangguang's bald body radiated golden light, like a golden chick hatching from its shell, dazzling and eye-catching!
Chen Yang quickly sat cross-legged and tried his best to absorb the energy of the Golden Core Condensation Pearl.
He inwardly lamented, "How much of this immense energy can I ultimately absorb?"
Just as Chen Yang was feeling regretful.
next moment.
The endless, surging energy within the Golden Core Condensation Pearl, like an ocean, rolled around his entire body and then converged at the back of Chen Yang's neck!
Those surging energies slowly condensed and coalesced, eventually transforming into golden cervical vertebrae in Chen Yang's spinal cord!
The human spine has a total of 33 vertebrae, including 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae, and 4 coccygeal vertebrae.
These thirty-three vertebrae are known as the "Great Dragon of the Body"!
The terrifying energy contained within the Golden Core Condensation Pearl ultimately transformed into only three cervical vertebrae!
Before the fourth cervical vertebra could even form, the energy of the Golden Elixir Condensing Marrow Pearl was completely exhausted!
Chen Yang sat cross-legged on the spot with his eyes closed, but his heart was filled with utter horror!
At this moment, he vaguely recalled the time when he met his great-grandmother Su Nuanyun in the Su family mansion.
When Su Nuanyun was treating her eyes, she asked him if his immortal bones had been extracted from his body.
At this moment, although Chen Yang did not understand what "immortal bones" were, he was slightly startled and felt that what Su Nuanyun said was true!
Perhaps, something truly terrible had happened to my body before, which is why the energy of the Golden Core Condensing Marrow Pearl is now specifically filling my spine!
As the energy of the Golden Elixir Condensation Pearl was completely absorbed by Chen Yang.
A surge of memories suddenly rushed into his mind!
While Chen Yang's body was absorbing energy, his brain was also receiving the Spirit Turtle Battle Technique contained in the Golden Core Condensation Pearl, the Absolute Defense Xuanwu Armor!
This is the strongest bloodline combat skill of a Golden Core Realm Spirit Turtle!
When the spirit turtle activates its Xuanwu Armor, a hard shell will cover its entire body, protecting it from any attack until the spirit turtle's immortal power can no longer sustain it and the Xuanwu Armor breaks, at which point the spirit turtle will be harmed!
Chen Yang perfectly inherited this skill!
This means that as long as Chen Yang's spiritual power is strong enough, he will be invincible when he uses the Xuanwu Armor!
However, the Xuanwu Armor consumes a lot of spiritual energy. If attacked, the greater the force of the attack, the faster and more spiritual energy will be consumed!
Chen Yang was immersed in the refining process.
More than five hours had already passed outside.
Ujina stood guard by his side, looking at Chen Yang with a complicated expression, her face flushed.
Because at this moment, Chen Yang was completely a bald, golden Arhat radiating golden light!
Yet, even in this state, Chen Yang's body was incredibly tough!
Ujina would steal glances every now and then, inwardly grumbling, "This guy, I wonder what kind of improper cultivation method he's practicing! Absolutely improper!"
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
It was Monkdo's subordinate who came to inquire about the situation.
Ujina immediately rebuked, "Get out of the way! Chief Monkdo and I are discussing important matters. If you dare to disturb us again, I'll break your legs!"
The subordinate was a Deadpool that Monk had paid a lot of money to keep. Upon hearing Ugina's angry rebuke, he immediately retreated in fear!
The subordinates around him thought that Monkdo and Ugina were doing something wonderful in the room, but little did they know that Monkdo had already been beheaded!
Ujina looked outside worriedly. It was already dark, but Chen Yang, the golden naked man who was shining brightly, still showed no signs of waking up!
Ujina rested her chin on her hand, her eyes involuntarily looking at Chen Yang, then subconsciously glancing down at his lower body.
For a moment, Ujina was completely stunned!
Two more hours have passed!
Chen Yang finally completely absorbed the bloodline combat technique from the Golden Core Condensation Bead. As for the enormous energy contained in the bead, he absorbed it all, and it transformed into three golden vertebrae at the back of his head!
At the same time, Chen Yang's meridians became incredibly powerful under the nourishment of the Golden Core Condensation Pearl!
"Hahaha!"
Chen Yang suddenly opened his eyes, a golden light flashed in them, and he burst into wild laughter!
He turned to look at Ujina, only to find the little girl staring at him blankly!
Chen Yang leaped forward, instantly appearing beside Ujina. With a flick of his finger, he sent a sharp slap across her forehead, teasingly saying, "You little rascal! Sneaking a peek at me while I'm practicing, you've got some nerve!"
Ujina's face instantly turned bright red, and she quickly waved her hands in protest, "Pah! Who was peeking at you? I was just spacing out, don't accuse me wrongly!"
The two were arguing when suddenly hurried footsteps sounded outside the room!
This time, the footsteps sounded like those of seven or eight people, all rushing towards the door at the same time!
Upon hearing the sound, Ujina looked nervously at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang, however, remained calm and unconcerned.
Soon, the men arrived at the door, but dared not barge in. They respectfully greeted them, saying, "Chief Monkdo! We have urgent business to report to you!"
Chen Yang deliberately lowered his voice and said indistinctly, "Speak."
Those outside had no suspicion and immediately reported, "Clan Chief! The Qitian Alliance meeting is about to begin in one hour! This time, the Alliance Leader has personally ordered that all clan chiefs attend! You promised before, and now that the time is almost up, it's time to set off!"
Chen Yang hadn't paid much attention at first, but when he heard the name "Qitian Alliance," he couldn't help but frown!
Of course he knew what kind of people the Qitian Alliance was!
This is an organization composed of elite demons, and the humans it recruits are all scoundrels who collude with the elite demons!
Chen Yang immediately asked, "I understand. Where is the meeting location?"
The subordinate quickly replied, "Have you forgotten? The meeting is being held at the rhinoceros tribe chief's house!"
"Alright, I'll go. You may all leave," Chen Yang said in a deep voice.
After his subordinates left, Chen Yang took out Monkdo's storage ring again.
Previously, he only focused on the spirit stones and ignored the miscellaneous items inside. Now, after carefully searching through them, he indeed found a token of the Qitian Alliance inside!
This token is exactly the same as the one I got from Xiao Daoyun, except that Monkdo's token is of a much higher grade!
Holding the token, Chen Yang understood immediately—this must be the token for attending the meeting!
But he didn't care, since he was going to deal with the Qitian Alliance anyway!
However, since this place is near the headquarters of the Qitian Alliance, it's best to be careful.
Chen Yang turned to look at Ujina and said, "I'm going to the Qitian Alliance meeting next. You should find a place to hide and wait for me to come back."
Ujina chuckled and immediately said, "Don't worry! This is my territory! I could even steal my father's Heavenly Khan's token and escape to the Great Ming Dynasty while being pursued by him. Think about it, who can catch me in this Royal City?"
She paused, then added with a worried expression, "But Chen Yang, you must be careful! The Qitian Alliance is a mysterious organization that has recently emerged, and it's incredibly powerful!"
Chen Yang smiled and said, "Of course I know."
He then checked his status—he still had 32 spirit stones left!
Without hesitation, Chen Yang took out the Yin Fire Sword and chose to upgrade its level!
After all, we're going to the Qitian Alliance meeting next, and having an extra spiritual treasure will provide an extra layer of protection in case of danger!
[Ding! 15 spirit stones have been consumed, and your superior-grade spirit weapon, the Yin Fire Sword, has been upgraded to a Yellow-rank spirit treasure!]
The next moment, the longsword in Chen Yang's hand, which was emitting black flames, suddenly grew larger and thicker!
At the same time, the black flames on the sword began to burn with fierce evil energy. With each slight swing, the sound of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard, accompanied by endless skeleton phantoms and evil energy spreading out!
Chen Yang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "The Yin Fire Sword's destructive power is actually stronger than the Yang Thunder Sword! Moreover, the Yin Fire Sword and the Yang Thunder Sword, one yin and one yang, are actually separate parts of the same weapon!"
Just then, the system prompted again:
[Ding! Host has obtained a Yellow-Rank Spiritual Treasure - Yin Yang Thunderfire Sword! You can consume 30 spirit stones to upgrade this item to a Profound-Rank Spiritual Treasure!]
Chen Yang looked at the prompt and was overjoyed, but then he was speechless—it required 30 spirit stones to advance to the Xuan rank, and he only had 17 left, which was not enough at all!
However, with a Yellow-Rank Spiritual Treasure in hand, it's enough to handle today's meeting!
Chen Yang took out a new set of clothes from his storage ring and put them on. Then he picked up Ujina, kicked the window, and climbed onto the roof!
In a few leaps, the two quietly left Monkdo's mansion and headed straight for the Qitian Alliance's meeting place!
