476 Fortune and Misfortune Come Hand in Hand
“Not good! With the Elder King in this state, I’m afraid he’ll end up like that demonic path cultivator.”
In an instant, Qin Chen could feel that the demonic energy in the body of the demonic path cultivator in front of him seemed to be out of control and was rushing toward him. What was going on?
...Qin Chen seemed to have lost consciousness in an instant.
His consciousness hadn’t gone into slumber. Instead, it was suppressed within his body and protected by the Chaos Divine Ring.
This was the only way to prevent Qin Chen from being demonized and ending up like the demonic path cultivator.
Now, the demonic energy from the demonic path cultivator seemed to be out of control and was all rushing toward Qin Chen.
It should be known that that was demonic energy that could even demonize a God Emperor expert. The amount was huge and was instantly absorbed into Qin Chen’s body.
In an instant, Qin Chen felt as if his body was about to explode.
He had just swallowed the Demon God’s blood who was a peerless expert that was on par with ancient great emperors. The power of the blood was naturally self-evident.
The power that this drop of blood could contain was so ridiculously strong that it could even turn Qin Chen into a demon temporarily.
It was also because Qin Chen had become a “legitimate member” of the demon race that he had triggered the stone tablet and absorbed all the demonic energy in the demonic path cultivator’s body.
The demonic energy seemed to have found its master and rushed into Qin Chen’s body from the demonic path cultivator’s body.
In an instant, the demonic path cultivator lost all life force and turned into a dried corpse. The life force in his body had been taken away by the demonic energy and entered Qin Chen’s body.
Qin Chen could feel his body becoming extremely powerful. Wisps of demonic energy emerged from his body, and countless cracks appeared on the surface of his Chaotic Divine Body.
Demonic energy appeared on Qin Chen’s body like a spider web as if his body had been torn apart by the energy.
Everyone was shocked. Even the true dragon could not get close to Qin Chen.
This was because the demonic energy that Qin Chen was emitting was too terrifying. If it insisted on getting close, it would likely also be infected by the demonic energy that would corrode its body. At that time, it was afraid that it would be demonized on the spot.
How could this place be so terrifying? Just a stone tablet had managed to give Qin Chen and the others such a big shock. It made them feel as if they had fallen into an unfathomable abyss, unable to escape.
Holy Maiden Mu Xue and the others did not dare to get close to Qin Chen either. Qin Chen’s current appearance was extremely strange. He seemed to be floating in the air while surrounded by boundless demonic energy.
The never-ending demonic energy was still flowing out of the stone tablet and into Qin Chen’s body.
If this went on, even if Qin Chen was demonized, his body would likely explode from the energy. If that happened, he would die without a doubt, and there would be no possibility of saving him.
“Detestable!” The big scorpion clenched his fists. Qin Chen had been his life-and-death friend and had saved him from many near-death situations. How could he bear to see Qin Chen die like this?
“Elder King, I’ll return my life to you!”
With that, the big scorpion suddenly unleashed his strength and rushed toward Qin Chen. He wanted to drag the latter out, regardless of the consequences.
At this moment, Qin Chen was enveloped by demonic energy. If this continued, he would definitely die.
The big scorpion decided to sacrifice himself. Even if he was demonized in the end, he would bring the Elder King out of the demonic energy.
At the thought of this, he charged at Qin Chen recklessly. Even Holy Maiden Mu Xue and the true dragon could not stop him.
The big scorpion rushed into the demonic energy, and in an instant, the demonic energy tried to burrow into his body like countless small insects.
The big scorpion’s eyes instantly turned red from the provocation, and he panted heavily.
He grabbed Qin Chen and wanted to bring him out of this area. Only then would the latter have a chance of survival.
Qin Chen gritted his teeth. He could feel that the big scorpion wanted to take him out.
However, the demonic energy did not have eyes. If the big scorpion touched him and entered the demonic energy area, he would definitely be demonized.
With that, he relaxed his body even more to attract the boundless demonic energy. This way, the big scorpion should not be eroded by the demonic energy.
The big scorpion could feel that the demonic energy suddenly seemed to be avoiding him. His mind cleared and he worked to bring Qin Chen out.
He grabbed Qin Chen with both hands and rushed out madly, finally bringing Qin Chen far away from the stone tablet.
At this moment, the big scorpion was also exhausted. He had just felt the horror of the demonic energy, and he had almost been demonized.
Qin Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He was currently suffering from great pain because there was too much demonic energy flowing in his body.
If the big scorpion hadn’t helped by bringing him out of the area, it was very likely that the stone tablet would continue to generate endless demonic energy. By then, even if Qin Chen had the Chaos Divine Ring to protect his divine soul, his body might explode after being demonized.
In that were to happen, even the ancient tree of life would not be able to save him. Thinking of this, Qin Chen quickly refined the demonic energy in his body. All he could do now was to refine the energy but not expel it from his body.
This was because the demonic energy was currently like something that originally existed in his body. The energy had no way out.
Therefore, he had to take advantage of the Demon God’s blood had temporarily turned him into a member of the demon race. He had to seize the time to refine the boundless demonic energy.
Otherwise, once the Demon God’s blood lost its effect and he returned to his human body, he would definitely be corroded by the endless demonic energy.
Qin Chen gritted his teeth and began to refine the demonic energy. This was a huge project because the demonic energy in his body had been compressed to an unimaginable level.
All the demonic energy in that region had been absorbed by Qin Chen.
If Qin Chen released all the demonic energy in his body, it would probably cover a large area.
For ordinary human cultivators, even a wisp of such pure demonic energy would almost kill them.
Yet, Qin Chen had absorbed so much demonic energy.
Seeing that Qin Chen’s condition wasn’t too good, the true dragon and the others didn’t know what method they should use to make him regain consciousness.
No one could expel the demonic energy in Qin Chen’s body.
Slowly, Qin Chen’s body began emitting fluctuations and his cultivation seemed to be constantly rising. Immediately, everyone was surprised. Could it be that Qin Chen still retained his consciousness?
