Chapter 26

"Scoundrel?"

"You and your whole family are scoundrels.

M"

As Ye Han spoke, he suddenly punched out, directly locking onto Luo Tianzheng's face.

If he could kill today, he would!

After plundering the two treasures, Ye Han no longer had any reservations. He could see that Luo Tianzheng was in poor condition; otherwise, he wouldn't have failed to stop him.

"Blind fool!"

Luo Tianzheng gritted his teeth, burning with anger.

He never expected that Ye Han would dare to attack him head-on. What virtue or ability did a Ninth Rank Yuan Gathering Realm martial artist have to challenge him, a Ninth Rank Divine Power Realm martial artist?

If anyone could succeed, they wouldn't be human but a mutant, a true prodigy, a divine embryo of heaven and earth.

His body trembled, and Luo Tianzheng suddenly struck out, his arms wrapping around in a manner that seemed to effortlessly deflect a thousand pounds with four ounces of force.

In one strike, Ye Han's fist light was neutralized. The two sides' understanding of combat was not on the same level. Luo Tianzheng's strength lay not only in his realm but also in his combat experience accumulated over the years.

"Hmm?"

Ye Han's body was pushed back by an invisible force, and he couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Just from this one strike, Ye Han understood the gap between them. Even in his injured state, Luo Tianzheng was still beyond his ability to kill. Even more, Ye Han vaguely sensed that Luo Tianzheng still had the strength of a Third Rank Divine Power Realm.

Such combat power meant that although he could escape from him, there was no way to win.

"Those who do not offend me, I will not offend. Those who offend me, I will destroy them!"

Ye Han glanced deeply at Ye Zhexuan not far away, then, after speaking, he retreated with the two treasures, quickly disappearing from their sight.

Bang!!

Luo Tianzheng stomped the ground, roaring to the sky.

He had never been so angry in his life!

A Ninth Rank Yuan Gathering Realm servant disciple had snatched the demon beast's essence blood and beast core right in front of him, which he could not accept.

Ye Han had not only succeeded in snatching the treasures and fleeing far away but, after gaining the upper hand, even dared to try to kill him?

How arrogant, how reckless, how blind to his own mortality was this person?

This was a complete disregard for him, a complete lack of respect for a stronger opponent.

"Alright, Senior Brother Luo, don't be angry!"

Ye Zhexuan's eyes flickered, and she now remained calm, having accepted the reality.

"This Ye Han is just a lowly servant for now. When we return, we can punish him." Ye Zhexuan said.

The word "servant" instantly became an outlet for Luo Tianzheng's anger. His eyes flashed: "Junior Sister is right. I am just one step away from advancing to the Inner Gate. At that time, killing a useless servant disciple will have no consequences."

A monk can run, but a temple cannot. No matter how arrogant Ye Han was, he was still a disciple of the Wheel Academy. Could he never return to the academy in his life?

Several hundred meters away, in a dense forest, Ye Han sat cross-legged.

Luo Tianzheng probably never dreamed that Ye Han would be so bold, not fleeing but hiding nearby instead.

Although the Beast King was dead, his residual power still lingered. The corpse lying there was still a great deterrent. For a short time, this five-mile area would remain a sanctuary. If Ye Han ran out of this place directly, that would be the act of a fool.

"These two treasures absolutely cannot be taken back!"

Ye Han stared at the Beast King's essence blood and the beast core in front of him, pondering deeply.

Luo Tianzheng and Ye Zhexuan had suffered a great loss this time and would not let it go. After returning, they would spare no effort to deal with him, retrieve the two treasures, and might even involve the Wheel Child.

"Treasures in hand are not treasures until they are truly absorbed and refined, and used for oneself. It would be better to refine this Beast King's essence blood!" Ye Han had this thought in a moment.

Thinking of it, he acted. After sensing that Luo Tianzheng and Ye Zhexuan had completely left, Ye Han opened the crystal bottle in front of him and, with the strong smell of blood, fed the half bottle of Beast King's essence blood directly into his stomach.

Demon beast essence blood, this was... a great tonic.

In an instant, Ye Han's body trembled, his pupils glowing as if flames were surging out.

"What's happening?" Ye Han was alarmed.

He felt a burning sensation in his body, his muscles and bones enveloped in flames. With each breath, even his bones seemed to turn to ashes.

His whole body began to ache, and Ye Han groaned, his throat hoarse, trying hard not to scream.

"Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique!"

He hurriedly activated the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, mobilizing his yuan energy to suppress the situation.

Not only that, but the divine bone inside his body seemed to be activated as well, emitting a thread of power to help Ye Han suppress the burning and backlash.

"Am I courting death?"

Suppressing everything inside his body, Ye Han's thoughts changed, and he suddenly understood some things.

Before, he had at most refined the essence blood of first or second rank demon beasts, which was nothing. This was the essence blood of a Ninth Rank Demon Beast King.

It was a great tonic, but it was clearly too much of a good thing.

His body felt like it was about to burst, to melt!

A quarter of an hour, an hour, five hours...!

At some point, night fell, and Ye Han finally relaxed, the danger passing, the burning sensation gone.

Every inch of his meridians, bones, and flesh had absorbed the power of the demon beast essence blood, and after being influenced by the divine bone, it was like a rebirth, a perfect refinement.

With every movement, Ye Han felt his physical strength increase tenfold, a punch could kill ten oxen.

At this moment, Ye Han took out the beast core.

When the beast core first appeared, his divine bone was activated, and during the refinement of the essence blood, the divine bone seemed to be drawn to the beast core.

Now, Ye Han had an impulse to try refining the beast core.

If he took it back, he definitely couldn't keep it!

Without reaching the Divine Power Realm, he couldn't refine the beast core, but now Ye Han tried to activate the divine bone inside his body and channel yuan energy into the beast core.

The moment the yuan energy entered, Ye Han felt a connection with the beast core.

Inside the beast core, an unknown, immense power flowed up through his hands and arms, eventually spreading throughout his limbs and bones, transforming into new yuan energy and entering his dantian.

"Indeed, although I am not a Divine Power Realm martial artist, with the advantage of the Eternal Unvanquished Dragon Body and the help of the divine bone, I can initially refine the beast core!" Ye Han was extremely excited.

Inside Ye Han's body, a surging current of energy flowed.

Explosive power began to proliferate, and in the dantian, pure yuan energy continuously gathered and compressed.

"Roar...!"

Ye Han growled, the powerful sensation making his spirit soar, his strength surge, his mind broaden, and his entire body feel incredibly refreshed.

If the demon beast's essence blood focused on refining a martial artist's foundation and potential, then refining the beast core was purely about increasing strength.

Under the powerful effect of the Nine Heavens Dragon Control Technique, even if the power in the beast core was extremely violent, Ye Han could transform and condense it all.

His vitality underwent a second revival, the essence of life changing, breaking through barriers, transcending, and reaching a new level of truth!

At this moment, he had a new understanding of cultivation, martial arts, and power.

Boom!!

At a certain moment, his dantian experienced a violent tremor.

Deep in the dantian, after countless yuan energy was compressed to the limit, a new power was born.

This power was domineering, pure, and noble....

This was divine power!

Ye Han finally broke through the Ninth Rank Yuan Gathering Realm, divine power was born, and he stepped into the First Rank Divine Power Realm.

"Good, very good, Luo Tianzheng, Ye Zhexuan, now that I return to the academy, I will shed my servant status and directly advance to the Outer Gate disciple. You can only watch helplessly."

Ye Han stood up and let out a long howl, his long hair dancing wildly, his spirit soaring.
