Chapter 165 Half-Emperor?
The nine-star peak Douluo is already the true pinnacle of the Douluo Continent and the strongest person in the world!
What kind of person can stand on equal footing with him?
"Li Pingan."
He looked at the Fighting Saints, nodded slightly, and greeted them.
"It's you."
Patriarch Danta and old man Shennong were shocked. A big thing happened on Dragon Island recently. Yao Chen, who was once the number one alchemist in Zhongzhou, became a Dou Sheng with the help of Zhu Kun.
Li Pingan brought Zi Yan to the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion at that time to reunite the Dragon Emperor and his daughter. Xiao Yan and Yao Lao were also there, and they were looked up to.
When he left, the two were still on Dragon Island. Zhu Kun just took care of them for a while, and their strength improved by leaps and bounds.
Later, the Soul and Ancient tribes continued to fight, causing the people on the continent to suffer. Many strong people took refuge in Dragon Island. Yao Chen was quite famous among them, not only because of his strength, but also because of his alchemy skills.
Yao Chen, who was originally able to refine eighth-grade nine-color elixirs, became a Douluo Saint. He went a step further and was able to refine ninth-grade precious elixirs. He was valued and flattered by many Douluo Saints.
Even a Fighting Saint needs elixirs!
It is no surprise that Yao Chen has this status.
Patriarch Danta and old man Shennong knew that Li Pingan was like this.
When Yao Chen was communicating with the two of them, he mentioned that his ability to become a ninth-grade treasure pill master had a lot to do with Li Pingan, and he learned a lot of medicine refining skills from him.
Even the birth of the Dragon Emperor was related to him, and he was the benefactor who helped him escape from trouble.
However, there was no mention at all about the Emperor Pill and the Ancient Emperor Cave.
Yao Chen could still tell what was more important than what was less important.
However, this also left a deep impression on Patriarch Danta and Elder Shennong. "I've heard of you a long time ago," they said, greeting him in a friendly manner.
When the other Douluo saw their attitude towards Li Ping'an, they also reacted and greeted them enthusiastically.
After some greetings, a group of saints returned to the meeting hall of Dragon Island to continue discussing the unfinished matters.
"Where's that kid Xiao Yan?"
Li Pingan was flattered by the saints and asked Yao Lao among them.
Yao Chen has already broken through to the level of Dou Sheng and is also a ninth-grade treasure pill master, so he is naturally qualified to participate in the meetings of the saints.
After taking a look at Li Ping'an, whose aura was unfathomable and who he was far inferior to even if he broke through to the level of Douluo, Yao Lao touched his long beard, spoke with a smile on his face.
"That kid was invited by Gu Xun'er to go to the Heavenly Tomb for retreat and cultivation. I heard that there is a remnant of the soul of an ancient ancestor of the Xiao clan there, guiding him. He may have reached Dou Zun now."
Li Ping'an nodded slightly.
Become a Dou Zun in one year?
It sounds a bit exaggerated, but the time in the Heavenly Tomb is three times that outside, so it should actually be three years.
With the guidance of Xiao Xuan, the ancient ancestor of the Xiao clan, who once stepped half a step into the realm of Dou Di and was only one wisp of source energy away from a breakthrough, it is normal that his cultivation speed is a little faster.
"Gu Xun'er came here on behalf of the Ancient Clan. She released Gu Yuan and the goodwill of the God of Dreams. She wanted to form an alliance with us to fight against the Soul Clan." Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun said from the side.
There is no hate without reason, and there is no love without reason.
Even if Gu Xun'er liked Xiao Yan, the Gu clan would not look down on a descendant of the impoverished Xiao clan, let alone make an exception and open the Heavenly Tomb for him to practice.
Elder Gushan's attitude at that time explained everything. He treated Li Pingan with caution, but was neither fair nor indifferent to Xiao Yan.
He left behind the words that perhaps only by becoming a Fighting Saint could the ancient clan look at him with respect.
This can indeed be called true. No matter how unwilling Xiao Yan is, it is of no avail. After all, the Douqi Continent is a world where the strong prey on the weak, and those who have no strength will be looked down upon.
The reason why the ancient clan’s attitude was arrogant at first and respectful later was that they invited Xiao Yan to the ancient tomb.
It was because of the existence of Zhu Kun, one of the strongest men in the world, that the other party looked up to Xiao Yan and they also showed goodwill.
Of course, all these treatments came from Li Ping'an. It was he who rescued Zhu Kun and made an agreement with him for the Emperor Pill. It was normal for Zhu Kun to value the two people who explored the ancient emperor's cave with him.
"It seems that the ancient clan is under a lot of pressure." Li Pingan said.
Otherwise, they would not have attempted to unite with Dragon Island to fight against the Soul Clan.
After a short while of communication among the saints, he understood the current situation. Compared with the ancient clan, the Soul Clan was more powerful.
The power of faith, to put it bluntly, is the lower-level people supporting the higher-ups. The power is concentrated in the gods. The combat effectiveness of the middle and high-level people is not high. Even if there are some divine arts that can feed back the gods, it has little impact on the Fighting Saint level.
On the other hand, on the Soul Clan side, the Zanpakuto technique developed by the reincarnator who had experienced the world of the Death God and allowed the people of the Douqi Continent to use it was different.
Soul weapons can be used by everyone from Douluo to Douluo and Douluo Zong, and can directly increase strength by several star levels.
Even if you reach the level of Douluo, the increase will be weaker, but you can still increase it by one or two stars.
This is extremely terrifying. A one-star difference in the rank of a Douluo Saint can be regarded as a chasm. A Douluo Saint with one star higher can defeat several Douluos with lower stars together.
"In fact, Emperor Hun Tian and Gu Yuan have already fought each other."
Zhu Kun spoke, surprising the saints in the meeting hall.
The two strongest men in the Douqi Continent were fighting each other, and they had no idea about this.
"How is the result?"
The Medicine Clan's Elder Wanhuo asked, looking nervous.
The Soul Clan killed people and sacrificed souls, and the first to bear the brunt were the alchemists with naturally powerful souls. The Medicine Clan was almost defeated, if not for some factors that destroyed it, they would have succeeded.
Therefore, after this incident, the other eight ancient tribes also took it seriously, united with each other, and wavered in their positions between Dragon Island and the ancient tribes, and they were also a powerful force.
Not far from him was a young man in a six-line robe. Li Ping'an looked around the hall and found that there were several other reincarnations besides him. Most of them had the strength of a Fighting Saint or close to it, and had also mixed into the Dragon Island camp.
There is nothing special about the reincarnationists. They lack strength and can only go with the flow.
They also noticed Li Ping'an's gaze and nodded with a smile. Li Ping'an had no fighting spirit and seemed to be practicing other systems. This characteristic almost marked him as a reincarnation.
If it were those powerful worlds, it would not be like this. They would have many different cultivation systems, and it would be difficult to recognize who is a reincarnationist based on this alone.
Unless some other world-famous means are used directly, such as the Rinnegan and Zanpakuto, which can be seen at a glance.
"The two were just testing each other. They fought in the depths of the void and were evenly matched."
Zhu Kun spoke with a serious expression.
“However, the two of them are originally Emperor Realm souls, and their fighting spirit has been accumulated to the extreme. Only their physical bodies are slightly inferior to mine. Now that they have received external help, they have already stepped into the realm of the Emperor Realm.”
"His strength has improved on that of a Nine-Star Peak Fighting Saint. He can be called a Half-Emperor! I am not able to defeat him."
Half Emperor!
As soon as these words came out, the entire meeting hall fell into silence.
"Even you, the Dragon Emperor, can't fight them?" The voice of Patriarch Danta was a little difficult.
Zhu Kun nodded slightly, his voice a little deep: "Although I haven't fought them formally, but at my level, I can feel their specific strength."
"The most important thing is that they have found the way forward, and as they continue along that path, they will become stronger and stronger."
"And I am still staying where I am." In fact, what Zhu Kun did not say was that he was still sensing the breath of other people in the void at that time, the Dream God, the guy behind the Soul Clan, and the Void Devouring Flame.
On the surface, Dragon Island is called a third-party force, but in terms of top powerhouses, it is actually far inferior to the other two parties.
However, although his strength is weaker, Zhu Kun's weight is still very important, and he can even affect that side's victory, otherwise the ancient clan would not have tried so hard to win him over.
He was even given the title of 'Dragon God', allowing him to participate in the belief and deification plan.
If it weren't for the Emperor Pill in Li Ping'an's hand, which guaranteed him direct access to the Dou Emperor, Zhu Kun might have been tempted to join the Ancient Clan. In fact, he was also very tempted, and this was part of the reason why he tacitly allowed the Ancient Clan's priest to preach.
You have to pave a way out for yourself.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat gloomy, Zhu Kun smiled slightly and reassured them: "Of course, things are not as hopeless as you think."
"We also have the means."
He looked at Li Ping'an, and the other Douluo Saints followed his gaze and looked over with curiosity.
What methods does this person who is so valued by the Dragon Emperor have?
Several reincarnations among the saints also exchanged glances. The competition in the Douqi Continent became more and more intense. At this moment, the strong ones who were qualified to compete for the final victory had already appeared.
And with what identity does this newly emerged character come onto the stage of this decisive battle?
Facing the curious gazes of the saints, Li Ping'an smiled faintly, with no intention of hiding anything. He said this to calm people's hearts.
Otherwise, if half-emperors appear on the other two sides and are about to sweep across the continent, it will be difficult for people to follow you if you don’t have this ability.
"We still have an emperor-grade embryonic pill in our hands, which contains source energy. As long as we practice it, it will be a piece of cake for the Dragon Emperor to break through to the Dou Emperor. Naturally, he will not be afraid of the Hun and Gu clans."
"Emperor Grade Young Pill?!"
"Is this true?"
The most powerful alchemists on the continent, Yao Wanhuo, Old Man Shennong, and Old Ancestor Danta, who was the incarnation of the ninth-grade Xuandan, were suddenly shocked and excited.
Li Ping'an stretched out his hand and waved, and an invisible space wormhole appeared, connecting to Danhuang Cave Heaven.
A young pill appeared, emitting colorful light, surrounded by countless Danhuang fires, revealing the aura of a supreme elixir, and shocking the heavens and the earth.
"Gudong."
The Fighting Saints could hardly control the expressions on their faces as they were filled with great greed.
Even Zhu Kun, who had an agreement with Li Ping'an, had a fiery look in his eyes, wishing he could swallow it up immediately and attack the Dou Emperor.
The eyes of several reincarnations were also shocked.
Is there such a treasure hidden in this Douqi Continent?
They were sent to this world by the main god space to carry out missions. The difficulty was naturally similar. Basically, their strength was improved during the time they entered this world.
Therefore, even though they now have six-star strength, they do not have six-star plot cards and rewards before carrying out the mission, and the information they obtain is not much, and they cannot bring it into the Douqi Continent.
There are reincarnations who are powerful, capable and knowledgeable, but the missions in the Douqi Continent are too simple, so the Lord God would not send them over.
This situation also applies to other mission worlds, so most reincarnations do not have enough understanding of the mission world. Only by reviewing it afterwards do they know what they encountered and what opportunities they missed.
"There are actually pills of this level in this world."
Yao Wanhuo was shocked. Even a Golden Core Grandmaster had not appeared in the Douqi Continent for a long time.
I can’t even find the ninth-grade golden elixir, let alone the emperor-grade elixir.
"The task of refining the Imperial Pill can be handed over to our Medicine Clan. Our Medicine Clan has the best alchemy skills in the Douqi Continent and will definitely succeed."
Yao Wanhuo immediately spoke up, wanting to ask for the qualification to refine medicine.
"Humph, your clan is full of old antiques. When it comes to alchemy, I have the Flame of Life, so I have a better chance!" Old man Shennong spoke immediately.
Refining the Imperial Pill! There is probably no alchemist in the world who can refuse, and the two of them started arguing directly.
"The Emperor Grade Young Pill... contains source energy... This pill is probably even more powerful than the Dragon Emperor. It can rival the two guys Gu Yuan and Soul Emperor, who is also a half-emperor!"
Patriarch Danta spoke quietly at this moment. As the incarnation of elixir, he knew the different grades of elixir best.
After the ninth-grade Mysterious Pill took shape, he, who had accumulated strength for thousands of years, now had the strength of a six-star Douluo. After the Golden Pill took shape, he had the strength of a seven-star Douluo, all the way up to a nine-star peak Douluo.
This level of elixir is actually not much different from a human being, it is just a strong person of the same level.
The Emperor Grade Young Pill, which contained source energy, was undoubtedly superior to that of the Douluo Saint.
He is the one who is most qualified to be called a half-emperor.
In the original novel, there is a record of one against four, fighting against Zhu Kun, Gu Yuan, Hun Tiandi, and Xuwu Tunyan by himself. If he had not been restrained by the Dan Hua Divine Art and the means left by Tushe Ancient Emperor.
It is not known whether it is the human who refines the elixir or the one who is refined.
Yes.
After hearing what Patriarch Danta said, the others began to calm down. The Emperor-grade Young Dan had the strength of a half-emperor, so what about the person in front of them who had subdued the Emperor-grade Young Dan?
They reacted and looked shocked.
No wonder Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun attaches so much importance to this person and treats him equally. He is obviously also a super powerful person, maybe even stronger than Gu Yuan and Emperor Hun Tian.
After they figured it out, their attitudes suddenly changed and their faces became flattering.
"Senior, you are extremely powerful, but you need a pharmacist to make the elixir. I wonder if you need our help."
Yao Wanhuo directly changed his words and called him "senior". In order to refine the imperial pill, he had completely lost his dignity.
"Me too." So did old man Shennong.
"That's not necessary." Li Pingan saw that the scene was calm, and waved his hand to erase the space wormhole connecting to Danhuang Cave Heaven, hiding the whereabouts of the Emperor Grade Young Pill: "I already have a way to refine the Emperor Pill, I just lack some medicinal materials."
During this year, Dan Yao not only served as his protector, but also was refining this imperial grade embryo pill. Now, only the last step is left.
Because it is the emperor pill of the Douqi Continent, some local medicinal materials are needed for blending and refining.
"Are those flame formations used to refine the Emperor Pill?"
Yao Wanhuo and Elder Shennong calmed down at this moment, and looked back at the Emperor Grade Young Pill in the Danhuang Fire just now. The countless flame formations changed continuously, which was obviously a method of refining medicine.
Even though they didn't understand it very well, they could still feel the formation and the other party's superb medicine refining skills.
"I don't know what medicinal materials you need, but we will try our best to get them together." Yao Wanhuo said. Even if it weren't for the greatest achievement of this alchemist, just considering the current situation, their Yao clan would also help in every possible way.
"I don't know if my flame of life is useful." Old man Shennong also said.
"Then I'll trouble you. You can watch while this pill is being refined."
Li Ping'an nodded, and just like he did to Yao Lao, he threw out two blank checks, which made the two men look happy.
Since I can't practice the Emperor Pill myself, it's good to watch others practice it.
