The white demon wouldn’t know Li Fuchen’s close combat strength and it wasn’t on guard. It allowed Li Fuchen to successfully get close to the white demon.
There was a giant elephant’s trumpet!
The giant elephant spirit soared. The Joint-Heaven Sword weaved the blazing flame power and the dragon elephant power together before slashing at the white demon.
Crackle!
The bone sword was shattered and the white demon was sent flying.
Li Fuchen’s sword slash was too powerful as its power was increased by at least 20%.
The white demon’s innate ability, Bone Sword, couldn’t possibly block Li Fuchen’s attack.
After the white demon was sent flying, Li Fuchen moved rapidly and instantly harvested the Seven Stars Earth Demon Herb.
The Seven Stars Earth Demon Herb was ten times rarer than regular earth class peak-tier herbs. A single stalk would be worth 3000 contribution points and was equivalent to 20 Ancient Demon Fruits.
After the Seven Stars Earth Demon Herb was taken, the white demon was extremely enraged. There was a white flash in its hand before a long bone whip appeared.
Lash!
When the bone whip lashed out, the air was covered with whip shadows and invisible forces appeared in between each lash. Even Li Fuchen had a hard time dealing with this move and wasn’t able to do much.
“The Demon Ring Continent truly must not be underestimated. The class 5 demons from the East Unicorn Continent would only be considered normal class 5 demons in this place. This white demon is probably at the pinnacle among the class 5 demons.”
Li Fuchen didn’t wish to waste too much of his blazing flame power, thus, he dismissed the Heart of Blazing Flame and circulated the dragon elephant power with everything he had. He then smashed the Tiger Soul Fist at the white demon.
The giant elephant spirit and the fierce tiger spirit fused, causing Li Fuchen’s combat strength to reach the peak. A fist had boundless fist force that felt like it was shattering the void. The whip shadows were all smashed and the white demon was sent flying.
With dual cultivation, Li Fuchen’s strongest attribute was still his body refinement strength and not even the Heart of Blazing Flame could be compared with it.
The Dragon Elephant Body Forging Chapters was an earth class high-tier body refinement technique and earth class low-tier body refinement techniques were much more precious than earth class peak-tier qi cultivation techniques.
The South Forest Martial Institution had earth class mid-tier cultivation techniques but didn’t have any earth class low-tier body refinement techniques.
The Red Rainbow Sect was a monarch-class sect and had plenty of earth class peak-tier body refinement techniques, but they didn’t have any earth class high-tier body refinement techniques. They only had a few earth class mid-tier body refinement techniques. It was imaginable how precious body refinement techniques were.
“His body refinement strength is actually stronger than his qi cultivation strength?”
From a distance, Zhuang Sheng and the others were appalled.
“The white demon is from the Bone Demon race and they are an extremely dominant race among the demons. It is said that a pure blood Bone Demon could grow to become Demon Emperors and these Bone Demons are considered rulers among demons of the same class.”
After staying in the Red Rainbow Sect for many years, Zhuang Sheng had seen many monarch-class disciples but none of them were as all-rounded as Li Fuchen. It was possible that only emperor-class disciples were comparable to Li Fuchen.
Boom Boom Boom…
With the bone refinement strength utilized to the limit, Li Fuchen was simply oppressing the white demon.
But the white demon’s bone armor was too tough and Li Fuchen’s fists were only able to cause traces of cracks on the surface. It was nearly impossible for Li Fuchen to break through the bone armor.
“The Tiger Soul Fist’s grade is still too low.” Li Fuchen frowned.
The body refinement dao and the qi cultivation dao was too different.
The earth class low-tier Tiger Soul Fist’s enhancement to strength was already comparable to earth class high-tier martial arts.
But it was only comparable to earth class high-tier martial arts. If Li Fuchen could cultivate an earth class mid-tier body refinement martial art, a single fist would be enough for him to severely injure the white demon.
“After I return, I should redeem an earth class mid-tier body refinement art.”
The Red Rainbow Sect had a few earth class high-tier body refinement arts but they required plenty of contribution points and Li Fuchen wasn’t able to afford them yet. Even earth class mid-tier body refinement arts would need a few tens of thousands of contribution points and the price was already comparable to earth class peak-tier qi martial arts.
(TL note: Do not confuse body refinement techniques with body refinement arts)
Bang!
After sending the white demon flying with his fist, Li Fuchen used the recoil of the force to skim towards Zhuang Sheng and the others.
“Go!” Li Fuchen yelled out.
Zhuang Sheng and the others were long prepared to escape and their burst in speed was on par with Li Fuchen.
“Roar!”
The white demon let out an enraged roar before chasing with thousands of demons.
The pursuit went across the third and fourth rings. During this period of time, other demons had also rushed over from other directions.
It was fortunate that Li Fuchen’s awareness was exceptional and could detect the demons’ positions in advance.
A few days later, the five arrived at the fifth ring.
After throwing a massive number of low-grade spirit stones into the cavity at the center of the teleportation platform, a radiance lit up and the five vanished without a trace.
…
Red Rainbow Sect’s teleportation plaza…
One of the teleportation platforms lit up while Li Fuchen and his group appeared.
“What a close call.” Yun Wei patted on her chest while having lingering fear.
The Demon Ring Continent was too dangerous. It was normally fine to explore the fourth and third ring. Only the second ring was a little more dangerous. The first ring was extremely dangerous but if a person wasn’t lucky, it was possible to encounter extremely powerful class 5 demons at the fifth ring too.
Demons like the scarlet demon that was protecting the Ancient Demon Tree and the white demon that was protecting the Seven Stars Demon Herb, would normally appear in the second and first rings.
“Riches are only found in danger. This mission is much more profitable than multiple previous missions.”
Guo Wenwu was very happy to return alive. The rewards of this mission made him even more happy.
Apart from four Ancient Demon Fruits, Guo Wenwu had also found a few of the herbs required for the mission. After exchanging them, he would have 1200 points and it was enough for him to redeem the first 27th ranks of an earth class high-tier cultivation technique.
“Senior Li, I live at the No.385 courtyard in the outer sect. If you are free, please come over to visit.” Yun Wei spoke with glistening eyes.
Li Fuchen was a monarch-class disciple and it wasn’t difficult for him to reach the Primary Sea Realm. If he could become her dao partner, she would definitely be very well-off in her lifetime.
“Everyone, Nobody Li shall leave first.” Li Fuchen smiled with a cupped fist before flying towards the monarch district.
Yun Wei bit her lips with a hidden bitterness on her face.
…
“A total of 15,100 contribution points. I can exchange for an earth class mid-tier body refinement art now.”
Li Fuchen’s profit for the trip to the Demo Ring Continent was extreme. He had obtained 67 Ancient Demon Fruits, one Seven Stars Earth Demon Herb, and other mission requirement herbs, giving him a total of 14,100 points. With his remaining 1000 contribution points, Li Fuchen had a total of 15,100 points and it was equivalent to one and a half years of contribution points that would be bestowed by the sect to monarch-class disciples.
With enough contribution points, Li Fuchen headed to the secret manual tower again.
At the second floor of the secret manual tower, Li Fuchen picked up the earth class mid-tier body refinement arts and read through them.
“Blood Dragon Leg, earth class mid-tier body refinement leg art. When cultivated to completion stage, one could activate the blood dragon spirit. When attacking an enemy, it would be the same as attacking the enemy with a violent and ferocious dragon. First half of the manual requires 5000 contribution coins and the second half requires 15,000 contribution points.”
“Purple Blood Armor, earth class mid-tier body refinement art. When cultivated to completion stage, one could use the qi power or extraordinary qi power to condense an armor. First half of the manual requires 6000 contribution coins and the second half requires 18,000 contribution points.”
“Vicious Dragon Fist, earth class mid-tier body refinement art. When cultivated to the completion stage, one could activate the vicious dragon spirit. The fist force is tyrannical and compact. It is the same as the vicious dragon emerging from the cave. First half of the manual requires 8000 contribution coins and the second half requires 24,000 contribution points.”
