Chapter 178: Eighth Level of the Saint Realm, Bei Nianyu Is Moved

Majestic and vast Dragon Qi surged frantically into his body from all directions, continuously tempering Zhou Chen's body.

Overbearing!

Exhilarating!

Zhou Chen was wild with joy.

The Primal Creation Scripture and the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill within him operated simultaneously. Instantly, an extremely surging spiritual power transformed into a small dragon circling above Zhou Chen's head, as the Dragon Qi on his body flowed incessantly.

Bei Nianyu held her breath, staring at Zhou Chen without even blinking, for fear that he might encounter some danger.

After a full half-stick of incense's time, Zhou Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Boom!

A terrifyingly powerful pressure suddenly exploded, causing even the mist in the entire valley to ripple in layers.

Zhou Chen's bronze skin was well-defined, and seven ancient dragon-elephants surrounded him, making him look like an ancient god or demon descending to earth.

Seventh level of the Saint Realm!

Seventh level of the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill!

"Congratulations on your successful Breakthrough, Big Brother Zhou!"

Looking at Bei Nianyu, who was sincerely wishing him well, Zhou Chen felt his meager conscience begin to ache slightly again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully intercepting the Opportunity of the Daughter of Destiny, Bei Nianyu—the Dragon Transformation Pool. Triggering Ten-Thousand-Fold Return, congratulations to the Host for obtaining an Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool. Would you like to claim it immediately?]

Holy crap?

A single Dragon Transformation Pool had already given him a huge boost; an Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool would be even more incredible.

However, Zhou Chen also vaguely felt that since he had already absorbed the Dragon Qi from the Dragon Transformation Pool, the effect of the Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool might not be as strong as imagined.

Looking at Bei Nianyu, who had been silently guarding him, Zhou Chen decided to return the favor; otherwise, it would be too heartless.

But he still needed to manipulate things a bit.

"Claim immediately!"

Rumble—!!!

The moment Zhou Chen's thought fell, the Dragon Transformation Pool beneath him, which had become somewhat dim, underwent an earth-shaking change instantly.

In the golden pool water, all Impurities were instantly purified, replaced by a more pure glazed color.

The pool water was filled with terrifying True Dragon Qi, emitting an indescribable Dao rhythm.

Compared to the original Dragon Transformation Pool, the energy of the Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool had surged by more than a hundredfold.

Bei Nianyu, on the shore, was now completely dumbfounded.

She clearly saw Zhou Chen jump in and Breakthrough his cultivation after absorbing the pool water.

Then, the entire pool suddenly burst with golden light, and the water changed color. The pool's attraction to her amplified by more than ten thousand times; she now desperately wanted to jump in and absorb the water, yet she forcefully suppressed the urge.

While Bei Nianyu was inexplicably shocked, Zhou Chen in the pool gave her a bright smile and waved his hand.

"Alright, Miss Nianyu, come down!"

"I've checked; it's not poisonous."

Zhou Chen said solemnly, "Moreover, I seem to have accidentally triggered a mechanism. The pool's energy has increased, and the effect is even better. Come quickly, don't waste it!"

Triggered a mechanism? The effect is even better?

Bei Nianyu's brain had completely stalled; she couldn't understand the principle at all, but she knew one thing: the Big Brother Zhou before her was simply incredible.

"Coming!"

Bei Nianyu cheered and, without any further doubt, jumped directly into the pool.

Oh my god, this power!"

As soon as she entered the water, Bei Nianyu let out a cry of surprise.

Dragon Qi, pure to the extreme, frantically nourished her body and Bloodline.

She felt the Bloodline within her begin to devour the energy in the pool water like a gluttonous beast.

"It's… it's too incredible. Big Brother Zhou, thank you!"

Bei Nianyu looked at Zhou Chen with immense joy, her eyes full of admiration.

"Don't talk, hurry up and Cultivate!"

Zhou Chen smiled slightly, not explaining anything, keeping his deeds hidden.

The two of them stopped speaking and immediately sat cross-legged to absorb the energy.

Zhou Chen fully absorbed the energy in the pool. The Ancient Dragon Qi circulated rapidly, continuously washing through his Physical Body, meridians, and blood… in an endless cycle.

As the Ancient Dragon Qi washed through him, the few remaining Impurities in Zhou Chen's body were gradually expelled.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, Zhou Chen's cultivation naturally reached the seventh level of the Saint Realm.

Zhou Chen felt his bones popping all over, his muscles filled with power, and every inch of his skin glowed with a faint glazed luster.

Even the Chaos Spirit Body within him took on a hint of the Ancient Dragon Qi's might.

The seven dragon-elephant phantoms originally surrounding him now became eight.

Behind him, the phantoms of eight Ancient Dragon Elephants seemed to roar at the sky, as if they could suppress mountains and rivers.

It's done!

Eighth level of the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill!

Zhou Chen felt that now, relying purely on physical strength, he could punch through an Ancient Divine Mountain and face the tenth level of the Saint Realm without fear.

On the other side, Bei Nianyu's gains were equally massive.

Bei Nianyu felt every pore of her body open up as countless True Dragon Forces flowed within her.

Her entire body was enveloped in a thick azure-blue light.

Behind her, an indescribably huge phantom slowly emerged!

That phantom looked like a fish but wasn't a fish, like a bird but wasn't a bird; it had wings that covered the sky and emitted an ancient, desolate aura that seemed capable of devouring heaven and earth.

The Ancient Heavenly Kun Bloodline had awakened!

Bei Nianyu's aura climbed steadily from the eighth level of the Saint Realm, all the way to the tenth level.

One could only say that comparisons are odious.

Zhou Chen's Azure Lotus Dao Body, Primal Creation Scripture, Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill, and chaos dao infant were all massive energy consumers, causing his progress to be less exaggerated than expected.

However, Realm did not represent combat power, and Zhou Chen was already very satisfied.

Zhou Chen's Realm also broke through directly from the sixth level of the Saint Realm to the eighth level in just half an hour.

One must know that in the Saint Realm, every step is like a new heaven. Even young Geniuses of Imperial Clans, taking various Medicinal Pills and Heaven And Earth Treasures, would find it difficult to achieve this degree.

Bei Nianyu was only able to progress so rapidly because of her Bloodline Awakening, and even then, it was with the assist of Zhou Chen's Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool.

After an unknown amount of time, the two of them slowly opened their eyes.

Zhou Chen's aura was more restrained and profound, but every movement carried a sense of power that could shake the heavens and earth.

As for Bei Nianyu, the air of silliness had faded, replaced by an ethereal and noble quality, as if she were a fairy descended to the mortal world; her temperament had undergone a total transformation.

"Big Brother Zhou…"

Bei Nianyu stood up and came before Zhou Chen, her beautiful eyes staring fixedly at him.

The emotions in her eyes were complex: gratitude, admiration, dependence, and a trace of… affection that she hadn't even noticed herself.

At this point, no matter how silly she was, she knew that the Ancient Dragon Transformation Pool just now was extraordinary.

Yet Zhou Chen had not chosen to use it alone, but instead shared it with her, helping her awaken the Ancient Heavenly Kun Bloodline, which was unique in the entire cultivation world. How could she not be moved?

She suddenly hugged Zhou Chen tightly.

"Thank you," the girl's voice was gentle yet firm.

"Little sister, let go first; I'm suffocating a bit."
