Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor - Chapter 45
Chapter 45: Ridiculous?
“Hmm?”
Su Han frowned and turned over to look, only to see Chen Feng sitting with his legs crossed, smiling coldly as he held a stack of spirit items in his hand.
“Are you saying that you’ve opened more than eight dragon veins?” Su Han asked calmly.
Chen Feng revealed disdain but did not answer Su Han’s question. Instead, he swallowed the spirit items.
Naturally, Su Han was able to guess what Chen Feng was really saying.
Ten dragon veins was the limit on the Martial Dragon Continent. If Chen Feng said he had a lot of potential for opening eight, then wasn’t he really saying that Su Han had very little potential?
Why would he have very little potential? Naturally, it would be because Chen Feng had already opened more than eight dragon veins!
“You will only have one day’s time!” Ping Yuzi yelled out helplessly after seeing that some people still remained idle.
Instantly, everyone sat down with their legs crossed and swallowed the spirit items. With their eyes closed, they began to cultivate wholeheartedly.
Naturally, the dragon veins were also fake since the spirit items were fake. After they left the plaza, any dragon veins they opened would naturally disappear.
Although several thousand people had already sat down, there was one person who was still standing quietly as he held the fictional stack of gold grade spirit items in his hand.
“Aren’t you going to cultivate?” Ping Yuzi frowned.
Su Han shook his head slightly. “This stack of spirit items won’t be of much use to me.”
“You think I don’t know it won’t be useful to you?”
Ping Yuzi said unhappily, “It’s useless to everyone. However, these are the rules of the Frost Cloud Sect. This is a test of your potential. Even if you aren’t able to open any dragon veins, at least the Frost Cloud Sect will be able to assess you. However, if you don’t even swallow the spirit items, how will we be able to assess you?”
“Then please assess me as you would assess a person who doesn’t open a single dragon vein,” Su Han said as he threw away the spirit items from his hand.
Su Han was speaking the truth. With his number of dragon veins, even with high quality gold grade spirit items, he probably wouldn’t be able to open any dragon veins.
The only things that could be useful to him were spirit stones and tonic pills.
“Are you messing with me?”
Ping Yuzi said angrily, “If you don’t wish to swallow, why did you follow us here?”
“I’m just following the rules set by the Frost Cloud Sect,” Su Han said calmly.
“You!”
Ping Yuzi was angry but speechless.
According to Frost Cloud Sect rules, one could not be denied his right to join the second and third stage despite lack of accomplishments in the first stage.
Otherwise, with all his anger, Ping Yuzi would have probably already disqualified Su Han from the competition.
Su Han decided to ignore Ping Yuzi and sat down with his legs crossed as he threw a tonic pill into his mouth.
The tonic pill was an Elder Spirit Pill.
An Elder Spirit Pill didn’t have much use for Su Han now. However, their effects did add up, and Su Han didn’t want to waste any of his time.
With his number of meridians, digesting an Elder Spirit Pill was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the pill melted and was quickly absorbed.
After absorbing it, Su Han swallowed another.
Just like that, Su Han swallowed the pills one after another.
Ping Yuzi stood there with his gaze fixed on Su Han. He noticed that Su Han was throwing things into his mouth every now and then, and couldn’t help but get curious.
“What are you eating?” Ping Yuzi finally couldn’t resist asking him.
Su Han stopped what he was doing and lifted his head, smiling. “Tonic pills.”
“Tonic pills?”
Ping Yuzi snorted coldly, “Ridiculous. How could you have so many tonic pills? Even if they were tonic pills, there’s no way you could digest them so quickly.”
Su Han shook his head and ignored him. He went back to eating his tonic pills.
Ping Yuzi almost failed to resist puking out blood.
He was the Frost Cloud Sect’s Chief Inner Elder and held a much more prestigious position than Xiao Yuhui and the others. Let alone someone who hadn’t even joined the Frost Cloud Sect, even the Frost Cloud Sect disciples had to treat him with utmost respect when meeting him.
However, Su Han had completely ignored him.
“What is your name?” Ping Yuzi asked as he suppressed the anger within him.
“Su Han,” Su Han said as he lifted his head to look at him.
Su Han considered himself to already be very polite. After all, with his past life’s status, why should he care about what anyone thought of him?
If anyone went against him, Su Han could just kill them.
“I have heard of you.”
Ping Yuzi said, “You’re pretty famous in the Far Mountain Province. However, you ended up with berserk Qi deviation. But I think that if you were lucky enough to be given a second chance to cultivate, then you still have a chance to get to the top. However, you choose to waste away your potential. The mindset you have is not what a cultivator should have. If you continue to behave like this, you probably won’t pass the second stage.”
“Wasting away my potential?” Su Han paused.
“What else can it be?”
Ping Yuzi said with a heavy tone, “You have the opportunity to let the Frost Cloud Sect see your potential but you decide not to do it. You think being presumptuous and cocky is going to get you into the Frost Cloud Sect? You think that will make people want to take you in as their disciple?”
“I will definitely be joining the Frost Cloud Sect. However, not as a disciple. None of you are capable of teaching me anything,” Su Han said, shaking his head.
Hearing this, Ping Yuzi felt his suppressed anger start to rise again.
“You’re ridiculous!”
Ping Yuzi snorted coldly and decided to ignore Su Han.
Su Han also ignored him and directed his attention to eating tonic pills as he felt the meridians that had already been opened within his body.
After swallowing the last twenty poor quality spirit stones, Su Han had already opened a total of fifty-six meridians. He was only fifty-two more meridians away from opening all the meridians in his body.
Ten dragon veins was the limit of the Martial Dragon Continent. However, one hundred and eight meridians was Su Han’s limit.
This was because there were only one hundred and eight meridians in a human’s body.
If Su Han were to open all one hundred and eight meridians, then Su Han’s body would experience a state change.
Other people required sitting down with legs crossed to absorb the spiritual Qi of the world. However, after Su Han opened all one hundred and eight meridians, the spiritual Qi would flow into him naturally.
Eating, sleeping, walking…
In other words, Su Han then would be cultivating in every single moment with a cultivation speed naturally much much faster than any other person’s.
When someone else was a Dragon Blood Realm cultivator, Su Han would be a Dragon Vein Realm cultivator. When someone else became a Dragon Spirit Realm cultivator, Su Han would still be a Dragon Vein Realm cultivator. When someone else ended up as a Dragon Core Realm cultivator, Su Han would still remain as a Dragon Vein Realm cultivator.
However, so what?
When Su Han opened all one hundred and eight dragon veins, he would rapidly overcome everyone else!
Moreover, Su Han’s past life had lived for one hundred million years and had travelled over the entire galaxy. His methods of cultivation and ways of increasing strength were simply too numerous.
In Su Han’s opinion, the Martial Dragon Continent was really weak.
…
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
Ping Yuzi couldn’t care less about Su Han. After all, no matter what he had to say, Su Han would refuse to listen. Su Han’s life and death had nothing to do with him anyway.
Hum~
At that moment, a tremor suddenly appeared.
Immediately, among the few thousand men, a golden radiance suddenly erupted on the body of a man dressed in blue robes.
He had opened a dragon vein!
