Chapter 1038 Number of places (2/2)
Zhou Yuan nodded obediently.
Chi Jing tossed something over, which Zhou Yuan quickly caught. It was a scarlet-red bamboo slip engraved with complex runes. It even faintly emitted a red-hot aura.
“This is the little Saint Art you had asked me to find to help you improve your bodily strength. This technique is called the Purgatory Great Flame Devil, and it is considered a top little Saint Art. It’s much stronger than your Mythic Saint Body.”
Zhou Yuan’s face lit up. The Mythic Saint Body was only a top Heaven Genesis Technique, and although it had displayed remarkable power in the past, it had gradually reached its limit when his strength had increased. Regardless of how hard Zhou Yuan had tried, the amount of golden blood refined and born in his heart was still no more than 300 drops, and the increase was slowing.
This was the limitation caused by the Mythic Saint Body’s level. To quickly raise his bodily strength, he needed a more powerful Genesis Art to strengthen his body.
”You have obtained a large amount of Law Domain Source in the Fallen Abyss, and it should be enough for you to master this art.”
Filled with joy, Zhou Yuan nodded repeatedly. ”Thank you, senior sister Chi Jing.”
If one were to exchange war credits for this kind of Genesis Art, one would have needed to use a ton of war credits, but Zhou Yuan luckily didn’t need to.
This was one of the benefits of revealing his identity. Even if Chi Jing gave him a top-level little Saint Art, the other three grand elders had to turn a blind eye because Zhou Yuan, an official disciple of the great master, had the right to such a technique.
Chi Jing waved her hand. ”During this period of time, concentrate on training and leave the Heavenly Yuan brush to Aunt Ni.”
She paused, then seemed to have thought of something. She couldn’t help chuckling, ”When the list of names is announced, you will likely be where the wind and the waves are the fiercest again.”
Zhou Yuan shrugged, not caring. After all, this kind of matter was a frequent occurrence.
The Tianyuan Region and the Great Five Alliance didn’t conceal the matter regarding the mythical creature battle, and so, within a few days, the matter had become both sides’ focus of attention. Many other forces in Hunyuan Heaven also paid close attention to this matter.
Therefore, as Chi Jing had said, the provision list for the mythical creature battle in the Heavenly Sun Tower caused a huge uproar when it was released.
Unsurprisingly, the list of names shocked the countless Heavenly Sun experts in the Tianyuan Region. Of course, their shock wasn’t directed at Qin Lian, Bai Yu, Bian Buji and Mu Youlan but at the fact that Zhou Yuan, an initial Heavenly Sun expert, had made it onto the list.
After the initial shock, a wave of fierce opposition broke out.
Of course, the majority of the Heavenly Sun experts who opposed hadn’t participated in the battles on the Chiyun Prefecture battlefield. In contrast, those who did were much more rational. After all, they had witnessed Zhou Yuan’s remarkable skills, but even so, many still expressed their concern about the provisional list:
“Sect master Xuan Kun is right. One needs to rely on true strength in the mythical creature battle, and no tactics or means can change anything.”
“Zhou Yuan's ability indeed isn’t bad, but he is only at the initial Heavenly Sun stage!”
“The ones chosen for the mythical creature battle need to be top Heavenly Sun stage experts!”
“There’s still a huge gap in strength between Zhou Yuan and them, isn’t that right?”
The release of the list of names also led to many arguments in the Tianyuan Region.
Moreover, the matter didn’t end there. The list had disseminated at the fastest speed possible and had spread throughout not only the Tianyuan Region but also the other eight regions, causing quite a stir.
