Chapter 27: Exploding Yuan Qi Pellet

  "Exploding Yuan Qi Pill!" Yu Xiulian's hand froze again, and her eyes revealed an unprecedented look of shock, as she cried out in a voice that was not her own.

  Everyone's face changed, staring at the green pill in Xia Chen's palm, as if staring at the Grim Reaper's scythe. The entire courtyard was silent, and the air seemed to have solidified.

  Only Sun Li's face showed confusion, they had no chance to touch the Dan medicine, and did not know what kind of terrifying power these four small Dan pills that seemed harmless to humans and animals possessed.

  Everyone was motionless, and one Exploding Yuan Qi Pill could turn an area of three feet in diameter into nothingness. Four Exploding Yuan Qi Pills would be enough to flatten the entire courtyard! If Xia Chen detonated them, even Fang Ziqing might not be able to escape with his life.

  Chen Qiushui's beautiful eyes revealed a shocked expression, she didn't expect Xia Chen's trump card to be so terrifying, possessing the Exploding Yuanqi Pill, even if she didn't help him, absolutely no one could have hurt him.

  "Xia Chen, you don't have to threaten us!" Yu Xiulian's face changed again and again, "If you dare to crush the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill, you will also be shattered into pieces!"

  "Then try it and see how?" Xia Chen said calmly, "Aren't you going to cripple me? Come on, come and cripple me! See if I dare to crush the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill!"

  Yu Xiulian's silver teeth were clenched, her slender white hands trembling slightly, only a few feet away from Xia Chen's chest, yet she didn't dare to take another step forward.

  She didn't dare gamble, Xia Chen's ruthlessness far exceeded her expectations. Who knew if this young man would go crazy in the end? She certainly didn't want to perish with Xia Chen.

  "Master sister." Xia Chen also ignored her, loudly said to Chen Qiushui, "Thanks to Master sister's help, Master brother is very grateful, unable to repay, very ashamed, please Master sister leave quickly, your move today, I Xia Chen will never forget!"

  Before Chen Qiushui could respond, Xia Chen turned to Chen Lie and the other two and said: "You three leave immediately as well!"

  By this point, his tone had already carried a few parts of absolute determination. Wu Feng and Yu Xiulian were both shocked, could it be that this kid really wanted to burn everything down together? Several people's hearts suddenly rose with an ominous feeling.

  "Xia Chen, I won't let you go!" Chen Qiushui took a deep breath. "I know what's on your mind, and I understand how you feel, but I won't watch you destroy yourself. You have the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill, no one dares to harm you. Why not take a step back? Remember, as long as there is life, there is hope!"

  When she said the last two sentences, her tone also softened, and was full of deep meaning.

  "We won't leave either, Xia Chen! Don't be stupid!" Chen Lie bellowed, "Want to perish together with these guys? You're not making a profit, but rather letting them off cheap! Since they fear your growth, you should grow even more and show them what you're capable of. You are the sacred body of Gu Yuan, and your achievements will eventually surpass theirs. One day, you'll make them pay back a hundred times for what happened today!"

  Upon hearing this, Yu Xiulian and others' faces turned pale instantly. Chen Lie's words undoubtedly hit the most hidden worries in their hearts.

  Xia Chen's growth was so rapid, in just a few months he had cultivated to the third peak of the Acquired Realm, and could even defeat those at the fourth peak. This was simply an unimaginable speed. If given one or two years' time, it was likely that no one present, except for Chen Qiushui, would be able to stop him.

  Offend this person, and it's equivalent to cultivating a mortal enemy for yourself in the future!

  Xia Chen's face was unpredictable, but deep down he was burning with anger. Today, he almost got himself killed here, how could he let these people go scot-free? How could he swallow this insult?!

  Fang Ziqing's face was as calm as water, with a hint of lightning flashing in his crystal clear eyes. The ninefold true energy of the posterior heaven gathered silently and soundlessly, combining spirit, strength, and willpower in an unprecedented manner, planning to kill Xia Chen with a swift and decisive blow that would leave no time for escape.

  Although killing Xia Chen would bring about enormous trouble, there is no other way out now. In her heart, she was also extremely apprehensive that if she couldn't eliminate Xia Chen today, it would be equivalent to burying a huge calamity for herself!

  However, just then Chen Qiushui suddenly walked in front of her: "Fang Shimei, it seems that your heart is not calm, do you want sister to invite you to drink a cup of quiet tea and point out your cultivation?"

  Fang Ziqing's heart sank, knowing that Chen Qiushui had already seen through him and that he couldn't possibly land a fatal blow. He gritted his teeth and said: "Big Sister Master, you and I have always gotten along well, why must you turn against me for the sake of this insignificant insect?"

  Chen Qiushui said calmly: "We're on good terms? When was that? I don't know?"

  "Big Sister, since you're being like this, I have nothing more to say. Today, I won't let this ant off scot-free, but the future is long, and I don't believe you can protect him for a lifetime! Let's wait and see!"

  She swayed and was about to leap out of the courtyard.

  "Stop right there!" Suddenly, Xia Chen's furious roar echoed through the scene. "Fang Ziqing, I didn't let you leave, how dare you try to leave?"

  "You think you can keep me with just a few Explosive Yuan Qi Pills?" Fang Ziqing sneered.

  "You dare to try! See if I can't keep you here!" Xia Chen said calmly.

  One word, like a thunderclap on a clear day!

  Everyone was stunned at once. What kind of person is Fang Ziqing, the ninth rank tomorrow? Almost the first person under Chen Qiushui! Even the divine cultivators are polite to him, and now he is actually called a lowly person by a new disciple. This is truly unimaginable.

  Fang Qing's shoulders shook violently, her pretty face turned white with rage, and her eyes seemed to be surrounded by countless thunderbolts.

  "You insolent ant dare to scold me? I'll fight with all my might and kill you today, even if it means getting seriously injured!" Fang Ziqing shouted angrily.

  The air around her crackled with energy, as the powerful aura of the Nine Heavens surged up wildly.

  Chen Qiushui's face turned solemn, and she quietly raised her true energy to be on guard. If Fang Ziqing really went all out, she would also go all out. The Nine Heavens of the Post-Heaven were not much weaker than her true strength.

  "You despicable person, I not only scold you, but also want your life! Today, all of you people will die!" The flames in Xia Chen's eyes grew stronger and stronger. Suddenly, under the gaze of everyone, he took out four more explosive Yuan Qi Dan.

  Eight Explosive Spirit Bombs!

  Hiss!

  Including Chen Qiushui, everyone took a cold breath. Four explosive yuanqi dan would be enough to flatten the entire courtyard, and eight... probably no one could survive.

  No one had expected Xia Chen to be so crazy, actually taking out eight Explosive Yuan Qi Pills in one breath!

  Fang Ziqing's surging momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he stared at Xia Chen in utter shock. If it were four Exploding Yuan Qi Pills, he might still have a chance, but eight...he was undoubtedly doomed.

  It was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her, and Fang Ziqing's anger vanished without a trace.

  "You wretch, you think I won't be able to keep you here! You think I won't be able to kill you!" Xia Chen said sternly.

  Fang Ziqing's silver teeth were clenched tightly, and with her proud personality, she would rather die than suffer such humiliation. But Xia Chen was even more fearless and proud! If he really enraged Xia Chen and detonated all the explosive Yuan Qi Dan, it was likely that everyone present would be buried along with him!

  She could not bear the consequences, so even if she was angry again, she did not dare to make any unusual moves.

  This young man is simply too overbearing!

  "Don't be deceived by him, this Exploding Yuan Qi Pill is definitely fake!" Suddenly, Zhuo Bu Fan's voice rang out, "With his cultivation level, it's impossible to refine even a Yuan Qi Pill, let alone an Exploding Yuan Qi Pill which has only one tenth the success rate of a Yuan Qi Pill? Even if Han Dong Yu himself took action, he wouldn't be able to refine so many pills. He's just trying to intimidate us, don't be scared, let's go together and take him down today!"

  Everyone was shocked, and immediately they all had their eyes wide open. Zhuo Bu Fan's words made a lot of sense. Even Han Dong Yu might not have been able to successfully refine the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill, let alone Xia Chen. So many Exploding Yuan Qi Pills, it must be fake.

  This principle is actually easy to understand, but Xia Chen suddenly took out the explosive Yuanqi Dan, and there were too many of them, so that everyone was shocked and didn't suspect anything.

  "Very well." Fang Ziqing's eyes flashed with cold light, and he sneered, "So the so-called reliance you spoke of is not even worth a single cent. You insignificant ant, I'll see how you escape alive today!"

  "Do you really believe what he said?" Xia Chen said calmly, "That's exactly why you deserve to go to hell!"

  "Xia Chen, stop pretending! Zhuo Bu Fan stared at Xia Chen, his eyes revealing deep hatred. "You think you can deceive us with just a few ordinary Yuan Qi Dan? You're dreaming, today I'll make sure to ruin you."

  "Zhuo Bu Fan, since you don't believe... " Xia Chen said lightly: "Then die first!"

  He snapped his fingers and a single Exploding Yuan Qi Pill was instantly activated by the true energy, shooting towards Zhuo Bu Fan.

  A burst of dark green light radiated from the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill, followed by a terrifying aura that made one's heart palpitate.

  It's really Bursting Yuan Qi Pill!

  "No!" The crowd erupted in a chorus of angry roars, their faces suddenly twisted in fury. The hearts that had just relaxed were once again violently shaken, almost to the point of collapse.

  Zhuo Bu Fan's face turned deathly pale, not a hint of blood color remained, he rapidly retreated backwards, wanting to avoid this deadly elixir, but where could he hide?

  At this time, he regretted it to the extreme, regretting why he had to challenge Xia Chen, and foolishly questioned Xia Chen, only to pay the price of his life!

  However, it was too late, and in the face of the explosive power of the Yuan Qi Dan, no one dared to save him, and everyone was shocked and frightened!

  "Halt!" A thunderous roar suddenly erupted, a massive aura descended from the sky, transforming into an incredibly powerful shield that enveloped the Exploding Yuan Qi Pill at the critical moment.

  Boom!

  A piercing emerald green light flashed across everyone's eyes, a violent explosion wave crashed inside the protective shield like a tsunami, battering it with countless holes.

  An invisible force blasted out, sending Zhuo Bufan and Li Yuanyao flying like straw, heavily crashing into the wall, instantly knocking them unconscious.

  The crowd seemed to be pushed back by an invisible hand, involuntarily retreating.

  Half a beat, the air wave produced by the explosion finally stopped, and with a "whoosh" sound, the storm shield also completed its mission, instantly turning into countless fragments, disappearing without a trace in the wind.

  Witnessing this scene, everyone's face was pale. If it weren't for the protective shield, Zhuo Bufan and Li Yuanyao would have been dead by now. Even Chu Zhenhai, standing beside them, might not have escaped unscathed.

  And this is just one Exploding Yuan Qi Pill! If Xia Chen directly throws out all the Exploding Yuan Qi Pills, what kind of terrifying power will it have?
