reax;
Fang Chen had already accumulated enough energy, and now he was being tempered by the scorching aura in the pool.
As the Star Elixir took effect, the Vital Essence in his Qi Sea started to fuse with every corner of his body.
In the blink of an eye, his Sea of Vital Energy was empty.
If it was any other time, Fang Chen would be shocked when his Sea of Vital Energy dried up.
However, he wouldn't make a fuss now.
Because he was breaking through.
Weng.
The scorching aura in the pool kept pouring into his Sea of Vital Energy.
At the same time, the Astral Essence in heaven and earth was being absorbed by Fang Chen.
Fang Chen's breakthrough affected the other seven.
Murong Bing was the first to discover the abnormality. Her pretty face revealed a trace of surprise, but she immediately closed her eyes and continued to cultivate.
"As expected of a genius who broke through to the pinnacle level. Brother Fang Chen is really amazing." Man Long smiled.
Among the eight, besides Fang Chen, Man Long was the most relaxed.
His physical defense was too strong, and he could withstand the scorching aura's attack.
Tie Yizun and the others also opened their eyes and looked at him enviously.
They didn't expect Fang Chen to break through in just two hours.
Breaking through from the Heaven Dipper Tier to the Heavenly Body Tier was a very slow process.
During this time, the Sea of Vital Energy had to absorb enough Astral Essence.
Moreover, the physical body had to digest all the Astral Essence in the Sea of Vital Energy.
However, Fang Chen was well-prepared.
He had already taken the most difficult step, and the rest was only a matter of time.
Whoosh …
Fang Chen also felt the changes in his body. The Astral Essence was tempering his body, and he felt extremely comfortable.
Then, he closed his eyes.
On the shore, Senior Brother Chen was also stunned.
"It's only been two hours, isn't it too exaggerated?"
Although they knew that Fang Chen had Heavenly Body Pills, being able to break through to the Heavenly Body Tier within three days under the tempering of the scorching aura of the pond was already a feat that could be considered as a supreme prodigy. However, Junior Brother Fang Chen had actually completed it in two hours.
"Freak."
At this moment, Senior Brother Chen had no choice but to admit that this junior brother of his was too monstrous.
Inside the pool, rich star power was condensing into a Star Pagoda in Fang Chen's sea of qi.
The symbol of advancing from the Heavenly Dipper Tier to the Heavenly Body Tier was to form a Star Pagoda.
For Heavenly Body Tier elites, the Star Pagoda would increase by one level with each increase in level. Eventually, the Star Pagoda would become a nine-level Star Pagoda. This was the source of power for Heavenly Body Tier elites.
After another two hours, Fang Chen suddenly opened his eyes.
Inside his Qi Sea, the Star Pagoda had already taken shape and was providing him with an endless supply of energy.
The pores all over his body opened up, constantly absorbing the power of the stars in the world.
Fang Chen inspected his body with his inner vision and found that his physical body had become even stronger.
Crash
Fang Chen came out of the pool, feeling full of energy.
"The current me should be able to kill a cultivator at the fourth level of the Heavenly Body Tier with a single punch, right?" Fang Chen mumbled to himself.
Senior Brother Chen walked to Fang Chen's side and said with a smile, "Junior Brother's potential has shocked me."
"Senior Brother Chen, please excuse me," Fang Chen said with an awkward smile.
"Junior Brother Fang, since you've broken through to the Heavenly Body Tier, I'll take you to a place," Senior Brother Chen said with a smile.
Fang Chen glanced at the seven people in the pool and left with Senior Brother Chen.
On the way, Fang Chen finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked Senior Brother Chen.
"Senior Brother Chen, why is the First Heaven so quiet?"
"The Demon Subduing Realm only recruits elite disciples, so there aren't many disciples. So far, there are only about 300 disciples in the First Heaven," Senior Brother Chen said.
Fang Chen was shocked.
The disciples in the First Heaven were all geniuses who could challenge Heavenly Body Tier elites when they were in the Heaven Dipper Tier.
There were more than 300 of these geniuses.
Then what about the Second Heaven and the Ninth Heaven?
Just thinking about it was terrifying.
"However, many of them are out on missions, and there aren't many who really stay in the Demon Subduing Realm to cultivate," Senior Brother Chen explained.
Fang Chen nodded, finally understanding.
The First Heaven was very large, but it was eerily quiet.
"Senior Brother Chen, where are you taking me?" Fang Chen asked.
"After stepping into the Heavenly Body Tier, every disciple has to go out on missions. This is the Demon Subduing Realm's test for you," Senior Brother Chen said. "I'll take you to the Mission Hall."
Soon, the two of them arrived at the Mission Hall.
"Beginner's mission."
Senior Brother Chen said to the elder of the Mission Hall.
The elder of the Mission Hall chuckled, and then threw a token to Senior Brother Chen.
"En."
Senior Brother Chen was a little surprised after seeing the token.
"Senior Brother, change the mission," Senior Brother Chen said.
The elder of the Mission Hall shook his head and said, "Junior Brother Chen, this is what Junior Brother Qing told me to leave for Junior Brother Fang."
Fang Chen was also a little surprised when he heard this.
Of course, what he was surprised about was not what the mission was, but that the elder of the Mission Hall was actually of the same generation as him.
As if knowing Fang Chen's doubts, the elder of the Mission Hall smiled and said, "Junior Brother Fang, you don't know, but in our Demon Subduing Realm, apart from the higher-ups, everyone else calls each other senior and junior brothers. You'll get used to it in the future."
"So it's what Senior Brother Qing told me."
Senior Brother Chen handed the token to Fang Chen, and then warned, "Junior Brother Fang, the difficulty of your mission this time is a little high, be careful."
Fang Chen took the mission, and was a little dumbfounded when he saw it.
"Are all the beginner's missions of the Demon Subduing Realm so difficult?" Fang Chen asked.
Senior Brother Chen shook his head and said, "No, their missions are all very simple, and can be completed almost easily."
"Then I …" Fang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Was it because he was a genius who broke through the pinnacle level that he received special treatment?
Sure enough, Senior Brother Chen nodded. "It should have something to do with your identity, but since Senior Brother Qing gave this mission to you, he must be very confident."
Senior Brother Chen patted Fang Chen's shoulder and said, "I'll take you away."
After that, the two left the Mission Hall.
They came to the teleportation array of the First Heaven.
"There are 36 teleportation arrays in the Demon Subduing Realm, and you can teleport to 36 islands in the vast universe at will. Your mission is at the Old Hua Islands, go in," Senior Brother Chen said.
Fang Chen was very shocked. The more he came into contact with the Demon Subduing Realm, the more he felt that it was too mysterious.
"After completing the mission, activate your identity token, and you can return to the Demon Subduing Realm.
Remember, you must complete the mission. If you fail, there will be a punishment. "Senior Brother Chen reminded.
Fang Chen nodded and entered the teleportation array.
In the next moment, a white light flashed, and Fang Chen disappeared.
Whoosh!
In the sky, a figure appeared. It was the person in charge of the First Heaven, Senior Brother Qing.
"Senior Brother Qing." Senior Brother Chen cupped his hands and greeted.
"This mission is very difficult. What if …"
Senior Brother Qing shook his head. His gaze was distant, and he said softly, "He's a genius who broke through to the pinnacle level, so he can't be nurtured like ordinary people."
Fang Chen opened his eyes and found that he had appeared in the void.
His body was falling rapidly, and his mind was filled with many thoughts.
"This is Sky Island?"
Fang Chen muttered to himself.
Below, on a certain plain.
Two cultivators at the first level of the Heavenly Body Tier were fighting.
"Little Five, you're no match for me."
"Humph, I don't believe you."
The two cultivators were fighting, and suddenly, there was a peng, and their battle was forced to stop.
Beside them, a huge crater appeared.
"What's going on? A precious treasure fell from the sky?" The cultivator called Little Five stopped fighting, and his eyes shone with a golden light.
When the two cultivators approached the large pit, Fang Chen slowly climbed out of the pit.
"There's someone …"
The two cultivators were shocked. Did this person fall from the sky?
Fang Chen stretched his body and climbed out of the large pit. He saw the two cultivators looking at him strangely.
Cough, cough.
Fang Chen explained awkwardly, "I was cultivating, and didn't control my power well."
"I see. Seeing that you've just broken through to the Heavenly Body Tier, you must be very excited."
"Brother, we can understand. We've also been like you."
The two martial artists were unperturbed, lecturing Fang Chen as if they had been through this before.
Fang Chen scratched his head awkwardly. If the two of them knew that the person they were talking about could shatter their heads with a single punch, what would they think?
"This is my first time here, so I don't know where this is."
"This is the heaven's lightning region of Sky Island."
Fang Chen chatted with the two cultivators for a while, and then hurriedly left.
Fang Chen took out the mission token, and the mission was listed.
"Kill the only disciple of the Black Demon Ancestor."
This was Fang Chen's mission this time. If it was just to kill the disciple of the Black Demon Ancestor, it would be easy.
According to the information, the disciple of the Black Demon Ancestor was a Heaven Dipper Tier cultivator. For Fang Chen, he could kill him with a single punch.
However, the difficult part was the Black Demon Ancestor.
The disciple of the Black Demon Ancestor was inseparable from him.
It was almost impossible to find a situation where he was alone. Under such circumstances, if he wanted to complete the mission, the Black Demon Ancestor would definitely be alerted.
Fang Chen didn't have the confidence to escape from the Black Demon Ancestor.
The Black Demon Ancestor was a seventh level Heavenly Body Tier cultivator.
Although Fang Chen had stepped into the Heavenly Body Tier, he didn't have the confidence to withstand the fury of a high-level Heavenly Body Tier cultivator.
"We need to consider this at length," Fang Chen said to himself.
Fortunately, there was no time limit for this mission, so he could carefully think of countermeasures.
The heaven's lightning region of Sky Island was a region near the Void Ocean.
The Black Demon Ancestor was cultivating in seclusion on a mountain peak in the heaven's lightning region.
Fang Chen came to a city in the heaven's lightning region and entered an inn.
The easiest place to gather information was naturally an inn.
Fang Chen found the largest inn here. There were all sorts of people inside.
'As expected of the core of the Old Hua Islands. There are Heavenly Body Tier cultivators everywhere,' Fang Chen thought to himself.
Heaven Dipper Tier cultivators were nothing here.
Fang Chen drank leisurely. At the same time, he listened to the movements in the inn.
After a while, Fang Chen heard some useful news.
"Have you heard? In three days, the disciple of the Black Demon Ancestor will fight the disciple of the Soldier Star Lord. At that time, the Black Demon Peak will be open to the public for everyone to watch."
"Is the Black Demon Ancestor trying to promote his disciple?"
"Isn't the Black Demon Ancestor afraid of embarrassing himself? What if the Soldier Star Lord's disciple wins?"
Fang Chen, who was drinking in the corner, was secretly happy.
"Three days later, the Black Demon Peak will be open to the public?"
