Chapter 389 I deliberately let Void Devouring Flame go!
The person speaking at this moment was Zhu Chen.
Zhu Kun's eyes flickered, and he turned to Zhu Chen, asking, "Young friend, this seems to be your first time entering this ancient emperor's cave. Why do you know so much about the nascent emperor-grade pill?"
Zhu Chen stated frankly, "I not only know that it has taken human form and possesses intelligence, but I also know how to truly subdue it."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Kun's heart trembled violently.
Having been trapped in this dark and sunless cave for thousands of years, he naturally sensed the aura of that Emperor-grade embryonic pill.
The opponent's subtle yet immense pressure made him deeply wary, and he didn't even dare to approach their hiding place easily.
He had secretly speculated that the being formed from that pill was probably already at the true half-step Dou Di realm, with a solid foundation, far superior to the superficial state that Soul Emperor had previously achieved through evil methods.
I never expected that this young man would have a way to subdue him?
"I wonder what method you speak of for subduing it, young friend...?"
Zhu Kun couldn't help but ask further, and even Gu Yuan, who was standing to the side, cast a surprised glance at him.
Zhu Chen's lips curled up slightly: "Actually, I could have forcibly kept that Void Devouring Flame here just now. The reason I let it escape was because I wanted it to go and find that Emperor-grade embryonic pill."
Gu Yuan was exceptionally intelligent. After pondering for a while, he understood Zhu Chen's meaning: "Young friend, you want them to fight each other."
"More or less."
Zhu Chen nodded without hesitation and continued, "The Void Devouring Flame covets the power of the Emperor-grade embryonic pill, intending to devour its origin to help itself break through. And that Emperor-grade embryonic pill will probably not sit idly by and wait for its demise."
Zhu Kun still had some doubts: "That Emperor-grade embryonic pill is exceptionally powerful. Although Void Devouring Flame is second on the Strange Flame Ranking, its cultivation is ultimately only that of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng. Even with some special methods, it would probably be beyond its capabilities to subdue or even devour an Emperor-grade embryonic pill at the half-step Dou Di level, right? How can you be so sure that Void Devouring Flame can succeed, or at least pose a sufficient threat to it?"
Zhu Chen stated directly, "Because the Void Devouring Flame possesses the 'Core Transformation Ring' and the matching 'Core Transformation Divine Technique' left behind by the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe. This item is the key specifically designed to suppress Emperor-grade embryonic cores."
"What did you say? The Void Devouring Flame has a Core Transformation Ring on its body?"
Zhu Kun's eyes suddenly lit up.
Having been trapped in this place for a long time, he sensed some of the arrangements and lingering aura of Emperor Tuoshegu.
He remembered that Emperor Tuoshegu did indeed possess a "transformation pill" substance, but he had never seen it before and did not know its specifics.
Now that Zhu Chen had pointed it out, many fragmented perceptions and memories immediately surfaced in his mind, and he couldn't help but believe Zhu Chen's words to a great extent.
He looked at Zhu Chen and became increasingly horrified.
Who exactly is this kid? How could he know such secrets?
At this moment, Gu Yuan suddenly recalled the extraordinary nature of the black banner from earlier and couldn't help but ask Zhu Chen, "Young friend, were you able to easily restrain the Void Devouring Flame and even force it to flee in a sorry state? Was it because of the power of that magical artifact specifically designed to target the soul?"
In Gu Yuan's view, although Zhu Chen himself was strong, the black banner should have played a major role in his ability to suppress the Void Devouring Flame so effectively.
However, Zhu Chen gently shook his head.
He raised his arms and moved his wrists, his knuckles making a slight cracking sound: "That banner is just an auxiliary tool. What I cultivate is the physical body."
"Physical body? Body cultivation?"
Zhu Kun's eyes immediately lit up with intense interest.
"Hahaha, interesting. Young friend, do you know that my Taixu Ancient Dragon clan is the supreme of magical beasts? In terms of physical strength and power, we have never feared anyone on this Dou Qi Continent. Today, having met someone like you, I suddenly feel a bit itchy to show my skills..."
Gu Yuan realized that Zhu Kun wanted to test Zhu Chen's strength, but he did not stop him.
Because he also wanted to see what the true foundation of this mysterious young man was.
While that banner was indeed terrifying, it was ultimately just an external object if one's own strength was insufficient.
Having lived two lives, Zhu Chen naturally understood Zhu Kun's thoughts: "Since the Dragon Emperor is in such a good mood, let's have a friendly spar. I also want to experience just how strong the physical strength of the Ancient Dragon Emperor of the Void really is."
"Great! That's awesome!"
Zhu Kun laughed loudly, and with a flash of purple-gold light, his enormous body soared into the air, heading directly towards the more open void above the Strange Fire Plaza.
"This place is too cramped; we can't fight freely here. Young friend, do you dare to battle in the air?"
"What is there to be afraid of?"
Zhu Chen did not move, but he transformed into a blurry afterimage and soared into the sky, facing the huge dragon head from afar.
"Young friend, be careful! This time, I won't hold back much when I charge!"
Zhu Kun's voice carried the pride and domineering aura unique to the dragon race.
Before he finished speaking, his enormous dragon body, as large as a mountain range, suddenly spun around. Covered in thick purple-gold dragon scales, his body, with an overwhelming and domineering aura, crashed into Zhu Chen with a thunderous roar!
This collision had no fancy fighting techniques, only the pure, extreme physical strength and speed that caused a spatial explosion!
Wherever the shockwave passed, the void twisted and rippled with countless dark waves, as if it could not withstand the immense force and was about to collapse completely at any moment!
Faced with the overwhelming impact of the dragon's body, which seemed capable of shattering stars, Zhu Chen hovered in the air, his figure appearing incredibly small.
However, he showed no fear on his face, and even closed his eyes, as if sensing something.
Just as the purple-gold dragon was about to strike, Zhu Chen suddenly opened his eyes!
Ancient runes seemed to flash in his eyes, and there was no dazzling aura or magical light erupting from his body, but his entire demeanor suddenly changed, as if he had transformed into an ancient god who created the world, and the space around him became stagnant because of his presence.
Zhu Chen pulled his right arm back and slowly clenched his fist.
The movements appear slow, but are actually extremely fast.
Wherever the fist passed, space silently vanished, revealing the deepest darkness.
at the same time.
An atmosphere that seemed to contain the fundamental laws of power quietly spread out.
"Power can overcome all laws!"
Zhu Chen suddenly threw a punch, and that seemingly ordinary-sized fist unleashed a terrifying power that made one's heart tremble.
"--Bang!"
Zhu Chen's fist collided violently with Zhu Kun's dragon body.
There was no earth-shattering noise between the two, only a ripple-like spatial wave that rippled outwards!
But in the next second.
Before Gu Yuan and the others' incredulous eyes, Zhu Kun's enormous purple-gold dragon body, capable of shattering mountains and crushing galaxies, was actually shaken backward by an irresistible and overwhelming force!
"--roar!"
Zhu Kun let out a dragon roar that was a mixture of pain and extreme shock.
His enormous dragon body tumbled uncontrollably in the void several times, crashing through large sections of rock walls and space before barely managing to stabilize itself.
Zhu Kun looked down at the dragon scales where his fist had collided with Zhu Chen's.
There, a purple-gold dragon scale the size of a house was covered with fine cracks, and the center was sunken!
In contrast, Zhu Chen's opponent only drifted back a few dozen feet before firmly standing still.
"What a brilliant move... using sheer force to overcome all laws!"
Zhu Kun's enormous dragon eyes stared intently at Zhu Chen, the shock in his eyes lingering for a long time.
He never imagined that a human could cultivate physical strength to such an extent.
It seems that what the other party said earlier was true.
If he had used that physical power just now, the Void Devouring Flame would probably have had no chance to escape.
