Chapter 944 - The Disparity of Different Energy Explosion Pills (2/2)
Zhao Xianlong frowned slightly, but he was relaxed now. As a master at the final stage of the Combination Realm, he naturally knew that although Qin Haodong was at a disadvantage on the surface, he had an absolute advantage in his strength.
Zhangsun Chengdu’s expression did not change much. Although he could see that Qin Haodong’s strength was not weaker than that of Chen Ruyi, who was at the early stage of the Combination Realm, even a little stronger than Chen Ruyi’s, Qin Haodong’s strength was limited to the early stage of the Combination Realm.
As long as Chen Ruyi swallowed the Energy Explosion Pill, his cultivation could be improved to the final stage of the Combination Realm in an instant. At that time, he could crush Qin Haodong with his cultivation.
Chen Ruyi in the arena was getting more and more anxious after not being able to touch Qin Haodong for a long time. He angrily shouted, “You always dodged my attacks. Let me see what you got. Don’t dodge if you’re a man.”
Qin Haodong had seen most of his fist skills and coldly said, “As you wish!”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and threw a punch at the incoming punch from Chen Ruyi.
With a muffled bang, the fist shadows all over the sky disappeared. Their fists collided.
Everyone present exclaimed in surprise. How did this young man find Chen Ruyi’s fist amongst the fist shadows which were all over the sky?
However, what happened next shocked them even more. After their fists collided, Qin Haodong stood absolutely still. However, Chen Ruyi flew back more than a dozen meters like a sandbag.
If it hadn’t been for his fast reaction and the fact that his feet were braced against the fence of the arena, he probably would have been thrown off the arena.
“What’s going on? Why did the situation suddenly change? Chen Ruyi had the absolute advantage earlier but now he’s been sent flying with a single punch…”
“Who is this boy? He looks younger than Chen Ruyi. How come his cultivation is not weak at all?”
“No wonder he dares to participate in the competition. He is really capable!”
Amidst the many discussions, Chen Ruyi became extremely angry because this was not the result he wanted.
“Boy, go to hell!”
In his opinion, Qin Haodong found his fist purely by luck.
Thus, he once again used the Eight-armed Divine Dragon Fist and threw a violent punch.
However, the result was still the same. Qin Haodong effortlessly found his fist among the fist shadows as before and punched him away again.
“I…”
Chen Ruyi stood in the arena. His internal organs had been severely shaken. Coupled with the sullenness in his heart, he nearly vomited blood.
At this time, a slight voice sounded in his ear. “You are no match for him even if you fight recklessly. Directly swallow the Great Energy Explosion Pill.”
The one who transmitted the voice was Zhangsun Chengdu sitting in the stand. He had clearly seen everything in the arena.
If this continued, Chen Ruyi might be punched out of the arena by Qin Haodong. At that time, Chen Ruyi wouldn’t even have time to eat the Great Energy Explosion Pill. Therefore, he did this to remind Chen Ruyi.
Qin Haodong said with a smile, “How about it? Do you still want to fight?”
“Boy, you forced me to do this!”
After that, Chen Ruyi raised his hand and swallowed a black pill. Then, his momentum suddenly began to soar, the middle stage of the Combination Realm, the late stage of the Combination Realm, and showed no signs of stopping. It seemed that he would soon reach the final stage of the Combination Realm.
“What pill is that? How could it improve his cultivation by so much?”
“That is a Great Energy Explosion Pill. Ordinary Energy Explosion Pills are unable to achieve this effect.”
“Young Master Chen’s cultivation is about to reach the final stage of the Combination Realm. Qin Haodong will completely lose…”
Zhao Xingyue’s expression drastically changed. She shouted, “Father, he actually took a pill to improve his cultivation. This is against the rules.”
Before Zhao Xianlong could speak, Zhangsun Chengdu, who was seated next to them, indifferently said, “Your Highness, that’s not right. The rules of the competition I announced before did not forbid taking pills. That boy can also take pills if he has any!”
“You… you are being unreasonable…”
Zhao Xingyue’s face was flushed with anger. Wu Yuenian and Zhangsun Chengdu firstly used rules to restrict the Three-Legged Golden Toad, and then let Chen Ruyi swallow a Great Energy Explosion Pill. This was blatantly shielding Chen Ruyi and openly cheating!
Wu Yuenian said, “Being unreasonable? There was no rule against taking pills previously.”
“Take a pill? I have one, too.”
After Qin Haodong said that, he also took out a Great Energy Explosion Pill and swallowed it.
The Energy Explosion Pills were the top ones among the sixth-level pills. It was extremely difficult to refine them. It was not easy for an Eighth-level Alchemist to refine high-quality Energy Explosion Pills.
He had just seen that the Great Energy Explosion Pill which Chen Ruyi had taken did not even have a vein on it. A pill of this grade could at most improve his cultivation to the final stage of the Combination Realm.
However, the Great Energy Explosion Pill refined by him was of extremely high quality and possessed three veins. It could directly improve his cultivation from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the final stage of the Combination Realm.
But he had just taken a Little Energy Explosion Pill. Although the effect would not be affected if he took a Great Energy Explosion Pill in succession, the period of weakness would be longer.
Chen Ruyi’s eyes widened when he felt Qin Haodong’s rising momentum all of a sudden.
He had assumed that he would be able to crush Qin Haodong after taking a Great Energy Explosion Pill. Unexpectedly, Qin Haodong’s momentum had risen faster than his. Qin Haodong was the first to reach the final stage of the Combination Realm.
Feeling the rapid improvement of Qin Haodong’s cultivation, Zhangsun Chengdu’s expression greatly changed. “What pill did this boy take? How can his cultivation improve so fast?”
