Chapter 440 - In Purgatory!

Chapter 440 In Purgatory!

Chu Xun was badly injured. His whole body was lacerated and his internal organs were dislocated.

If Chu Xun hadn’t been protected by the Ancestral Dragon’s Bone, he would have been doomed this time. His internal organs might have been crushed.

If he couldn’t receive proper treatment now, his vitality would be sapped and he would have long-term complications.

Moreover, since he had used the True Blood, he had dropped to the middle-stage of Gold Core, which meant that his essence had been hurt.

Emperor Ao opened Chu Xun’s Storage Ring with a special method, planning to use the resources inside to heal Chu Xun.

Upon seeing the inside of the Storage Ring, Emperor Ao couldn’t help but be stunned. He was confused and looked at the unconscious Chu Xun. What had this guy done in the past few years? The resources in the ring were abundant. There were even a few rare exotic fruits, and also countless spiritual herbs, spiritual elixirs, rare flowers, and spiritual fruits.

“Fire-Amber Bamboo, Soul-nourishing Lotuses, Spirit Flux of thousands of years, Sacred Dew of the Sun...” Emperor Ao was shocked.

Emperor Ao even cried out in surprise when Suan Ni rushed out after he opened a jade jar.

“Suan Ni True Blood.”

After a long time, Emperor Ao laughed.

No wonder the outside world called this guy Chu Xun the Devil. He deserved that name. Even Emperor Ao admired him for his means and speed of collecting resources.

However, when he saw the Ancestral Dragon’s Bone, he didn’t want to laugh at all. His face turned grim. The bone used to be on his father’s tail, but it was hidden by this brat.

“This brat is such a hoarder.” Emperor Ao stared angrily at Chu Xun, who still hadn’t woken up.

“Forget it. When you recover, I’ll get even with you.”

Emperor Ao muttered a few words. He flipped his hand over, and a big cauldron appeared. It was floating in the air more than one meter above the ground and was as tall as a person. It was dark all over. No one could see what it was made of. There was a faint red light flowing on its surface.

Emperor Ao made a magic signet, and a Blazing Flame Formation formed at the bottom of the cauldron. The dark-red flames burned the big cauldron, making it scorching hot.

Next, he poured all of the Spirit Flux of thousands of years and Sacred Dew of the Sun into the cauldron and filled it up.

Then, he began to refine those spiritual herbs and elixirs to extract their essence, which would be poured into the cauldron.

Emperor Ao was very good at refining, so in the blink of an eye, countless spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs were refined.

The divine water in the cauldron seemed to be in a viscous state. The flames surged and the water was boiling.

Emperor Ao stripped Chu Xun naked and threw him into the cauldron. Then, he set up another magic formation around it to prevent the steam of the divine water from escaping.

When Chu Xun fell into the cauldron, the boiling divine water all rushed toward him and was immediately absorbed through his pores.

The unconscious Chu Xun felt a sharp pain. He couldn’t help trembling and unconsciously ran his Qi to resist it.

“Boy, if you want to recover as soon as possible, don’t try to resist it. The Ancestral Dragon’s Bone is in your body, and you have cultivated the Hong Meng Scripture, so only you can make full use of these things,” Emperor Ao told Chu Xun through the sea of consciousness.

“Ouch!” Chu Xun’s skin became red, and the intense pain made him groan.

The water with herbs and elixirs went into his body like burning steel needles and was running along his veins, meridians, and bones.

Chu Xun was still unconscious, so he could only subconsciously run his Qi to resist, destroy, and refine the water.

“Boy, enjoy it!” Emperor Ao looked at Chu Xun and seemed to take pleasure in his misery.

Chu Xun then fell into endless pain and could not break free from it.

...

Time flew by. Half a year had passed.

“Master, he will be fine, won’t he?” After coming back, Jing Hong had never left but had stayed there watching over Chu Xun.

Emperor Ao was still the same old him—eating, drinking, and having fun.

He threw the carp he had just hooked into the pond and glanced at Chu Xun, who was still in the big cauldron.

“He seems fine.”

“But why is he still unconscious?” Jing Hong was not relieved. After all, there was more than one herb and elixir in the water, and the Spirit Flux of thousands of years and the Sacred Dew of the Sun had different properties.

“Don’t worry. Others may not be able to succeed, but this boy is an exception,” Emperor Ao said. He had the Ancestral Dragon’s Bone and had practiced the Hong Meng Scripture. More surprisingly, he had two Golden Cores in his body, a very strange thing that even Emperor Ao had never seen in his life.

The Gold Core was the origin of a person, and one’s combat capability depended on that. Chu Xun actually had two. What did this mean?

Emperor Ao had never heard of such a thing. He didn’t know if it was good or bad. Now he could only think about it in a good way.

The sticky divine water with herbs became clear now after being absorbed by Chu Xun for half a year.

Lord of Healing was confused. Chu Xun should have woken up a long time ago.

However, they had no choice but to wait.

However, to their surprise, they waited another half a year.

There was still no sign that Chu Xun would wake up.

However, the outside world had been thrown into chaos.

Strong warriors of the alien races appeared one after another.

Although there were not many, each of them was very powerful.

They had learned that almost all of their member’s deaths had something to do with Chu Xun, so they announced they would take revenge on Chu Xun.

Now the whole world wanted to know where Chu Xun was and whether he was alive.

It was said that there were actually warriors of the Immortal Level among them.

They were very cruel. They had slaughtered cities and plundered villages. There were no human warriors of the Immortal Level, so human beings were defeated in the battle and forced to retreat.

Besides, the human warriors who had participated in the massacre of the alien races in the battle of the Nether Mountain a year ago were being hunted down.

In remote areas, some towns had fallen into the hands of the alien races, and all the residents had been slaughtered.

The amiable old man was very aggressive this time. He warned the alien races that if they dared to kill innocent people again, he would not be kind to them.

A wolf king of the Lycan race at Grade Nine of the Great Completion was very disdainful of the old man. On the same day, he plundered another city and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people.

The amiable old man was furious and ordered to fire a small nuclear bomb into the city.

Before, he didn’t use nuclear bombs because he was afraid of hurting innocent people. But now that this city was occupied by the Lycans, he didn’t have to worry about that.

No one dared to underestimate the power of a nuclear bomb. It could shatter everything. The small nuclear bomb completely flattened the city. Even the wolf king was blown to ashes.

This move had completely shocked the alien races. They did not dare to act rashly now.

Half a year had passed, and the city, which had been flattened by nuclear bombs, was still devoid of any vegetation. This made the alien races even more fearful.

Since the government had stepped in, the alien races didn’t dare to make unbridled attacks, but they kept doing little tricks.

The nuclear bomb could intimidate the alien races, but it had a disadvantage. When those of the alien races hid among the humans, the country could do nothing about it. It could not fire at the cities where human beings were.

In Emperor Ao’s Purple Mansion on Dragon’s Back, Chu Xun was still in the big cauldron and had absorbed the herbs and elixirs inside.

“It’s time to wake up.” At first, Emperor Ao was relaxed, but now he began to worry.

Another month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Chu Xun finally woke up. When he opened his eyes, he looked a little confused.

The water was up to his chin, so when he opened his mouth to say something, he accidentally gulped down a few mouthfuls of water. He was choked to tears and came to his senses completely.

“Boy, you’ve finally woken up.” Emperor Ao and Jing Hong came over and couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

“How long have I been unconscious?” Chu Xun asked.

“One year, one month, and seven days,” Emperor Ao said.

Chu Xun rolled his eyes and thought, “This man is crazy. Isn’t seven days a week?”

“How do you feel?” Jing Hong asked with concern.

Chu Xun clenched his fists and stretched in the water. His bones cracked. He said with a smile, “I feel better than ever.”

He had endured the pain of being shot by the flaming needles for a year, so he had to be fine. If not, that would mean that he had suffered the pain for nothing.

Chu Xun was about to get out of the cauldron, but was slapped back by Emperor Ao.

“What are you doing?” Chu Xun was very angry. The slap was so hard that he felt dizzy now.

“It’s not the time to come out now. I have something good for you.” Emperor Ao smiled strangely.

Seeing Emperor Ao’s mischievous look, Chu Xun was alarmed.

Emperor Ao took out a jade jar. Chu Xun recognized it at a glance. It was the jar that contained Suan Ni True Blood.

“What are you going to do?” Chu Xun looked at him warily.

“This is a good thing, a great treasure. It can not only improve the soul, spirit, and bones, but also can greatly benefit one’s cultivation,” Emperor Ao said.

“I know that.” Chu Xun was not a new cultivator, so he naturally knew the benefits of Suan Ni True Blood.

“Good. Refine and absorb it now.”

“No.” As Chu Xun said this, he tried to jump out of the big cauldron.

“You don’t get to decide.” Emperor Ao moved quickly. He sealed Chu Xun’s cultivation and set up a magic formation to trap him in the cauldron.

Then, he opened the lid of the jade jar, and Suan Ni rushed out while spouting red flames. It was the size of a palm, but it was fierce. Emperor Ao turned over his hand and slammed it into the big cauldron where Chu Xun was.

Suan Ni roared at Chu Xun and then rushed toward him.

The cauldron was not big enough and Chu Xun’s cultivation was sealed, so he couldn’t dodge it and was hit in the chest.

A sizzling sound rang out.

A puff of white smoke rose, and the place where Chu Xun was hit suddenly turned red. He felt like his flesh was burning.

“Ah...” Chu Xun let out a heartbreaking wail. He was in so much pain that he felt as if his heart was torn apart and his soul was trembling.

The pain of being pricked by the flaming needles was nothing compared to this burning pain.

“You bastard! Unseal my cultivation!” Chu Xun felt so much pain. He stared at Emperor Ao and screamed.

“Unseal your cultivation? Then how can you refine yourself?” Emperor Ao looked at Chu Xun, who was still screaming, and said, “When you were slapped, your skin and flesh were torn open, so you should know how fragile you are. You disgraced the Azure Dragon’s Nine Transformations Technique of my race. I can’t afford to lose my reputation.”

“That’s because your technique is lousy. It has nothing to do with... ah...” Before Chu Xun could finish his words, he was hit on the shoulder by Suan Ni. His shoulder turned red and white smoke began curling up. It was so painful that he couldn’t help but let out a shrill cry.

It was really painful. It was as if someone was scorching his flesh with a red-hot iron. It not only made his skin and flesh painful, but also his bones and soul.

“Boy, you’d better save some strength to deal with this Suan Ni,” Emperor Ao said gloatingly.

“Jing Hong, help me. This old man wants to kill me. If you don’t want to be a widow, save me now.” Seeing that Emperor Ao ignored him, Chu Xun began to plead with Jing Hong.

He felt like he was in purgatory. The part that was hit was painful, and his whole body seemed to be burned by raging fire. It was so painful that he couldn’t see anything. His soul trembled, and his whole body spasmed.
