CHAPTER 546: CHAPTER 501: THE MARVEL OF THE PROGENITOR CORE, WINDS AND CLOUDS SURGING!

Upon clicking in, the official criteria for assessing the value of the toxic substance are listed.

After a quick glance, Meng Chuan nodded to himself.

The judgment is reasonable, the toxic substance’s value is indeed not low.

In comparison, the title Celestial Demon at the initial entry of the Three-Limit Master level is only worth ten points of special combat merit.

The toxic substance’s strength is not high.

The appraisal department also took into comprehensive consideration the harmfulness of the ability of this Celestial Demon to possess.

That’s why they provided a high price of 50 points of special combat merit.

He had saved up the national talent welfare from the past few months to exchange for Tiger Saliva Dates.

He looked at the balance, with 90 points left.

This wave counts as a little supplement to his special combat merit stockpile.

The body of the toxic substance could also be converted into money transferred to him.

Chief Xu mentioned a starting price of one hundred million.

Meng Chuan is not in a hurry; he is not interested in money...

Recently, the teaching earnings from short video platforms have been steadily rising.

His personal funds have once again exceeded nine figures.

Since there hasn’t been any major purchase recently, these funds should just be saved for now.

Wait until the Martial Arts Association auction offers something suitable for him before making a move.

Meanwhile, he also saw a call from Han Hai President Shen.

Shen Shuo expressed concern, having just seen the news about Meng Chuan’s counter-strike against the titled Celestial Demon.

He then mentioned another matter.

Over the phone, while puffing on a cigar Meng Chuan had gotten for him last time, Shen Shuo cheerfully said:

[Xiaomeng, there’s another piece of good news for you. Our company headquarters’ alchemy workshop has produced quite a lot of bulk this month, including elixirs related to the spirit that you need.

They’re still in the condensation stage; once finished, I’ll have them sent from Shanghai to me first for processing, and I’ll explain their specific effects to you later.]

On the other side, Meng Chuan laughed and replied:

[Alright, President Shen, I’m not in a particular hurry either, let’s get in touch when it’s time.]

Previously, after refining the Immortal Tear Gold obtained from Mixed Iron Hand Wang Jian.

He was just a step away from the Profound Iron Foundation.

Thus, he was in urgent need of spirit-related elixirs to reinforce.

Later, he obtained another piece to refine from Sect Leader Chen Tuan’s hand.

After the spiritual foundation advanced, he was not as lacking in such elixirs.

However, things that enhance spiritual power are still beneficial to have in abundance.

The Profound Iron Foundation is sufficient to support the bloom of the "Spirit" at the top of the Three Flowers.

But if it can further solidify the foundation, it would add extra security.

[Got it, see you. Next year, I’ll likely have to go down the Demon Nest with the company. Since you can fight against the titled Celestial Demon, I’m relieved.]

[Understood.]

Going down the Demon Nest is a clause written in the contract.

If there’s nothing else, Meng Chuan plans to fulfill it next year.

However, if it conflicts with the Dawn Martial Exercise mentioned by Lu Ang’s garrison, it can be postponed to the year after.

Returning to his senses, he used spiritual power to manipulate the Tiger Head Token, retrieving the true spirit of the toxic substance.

As soon as it emerged, a thick demonic aura rushed at him.

This was his first time obtaining a titled-level Celestial Demon true spirit.

Indeed, there was quite a difference from the true spirits obtained before.

Upper-rank Celestial Demon true spirits are mostly small cloud-like forms, far from solid quality.

But now, the item in his hand is like a five-centimeter-diameter dark blue glass bead, very beautiful.

Looking past the exterior, the toxic substance is also of the water attribute in the Five Elements.

Judging solely by appearance, it resembled the turquoise bead he confiscated while capturing Wang Jian.

Meng Chuan brought it closer for a detailed perception.

Penetrating the exterior, its interior was filled with dense thread-like networks.

Like the star tracks within himself, resembling meridians and blood vessel patterns.

At the very center of the true spirit, there was a shadowy outline that looked like a seed upon close inspection.

Meng Chuan had previously learned that this is the solid-type Celestial Demon’s deeply hidden origin within the true spirit.

Only the origins of titled-level Celestial Demons are solid enough to manifest.

As to whether it’s oviparous or viviparous, and other such details.

He wasn’t knowledgeable about it, nor was he interested...

Within the Great Chu’s senior martial arts group, this item is called the "original core."

Coreless-type Celestial Demons’ [core] is mostly used for alchemy.

Solid-type Celestial Demon, the true spirit’s [original core], is the core material for casting powerful True Martial beings.

The Fist Blade from Naihe Bridge Head Moon in his hand, its main material is comparable to the original core of the toxic substance’s true spirit.

Therefore, the value of this true spirit is imaginable, certainly worth more than a hundred million.

Holding this transparent glass bead, Meng Chuan sighed:

"It’s tough with a glutton back home, costly..."

Most importantly, the toxic substance’s true spirit can be converted through the Dragon Demon Conversion.

Refined into high-quality "Water Essence Qi," beneficial for the bones and muscles.

Enhancing his own soul attack and the physical body’s lethality to the spirit further.

If refined enough, the punch’s power is sufficient to shatter the enemy’s soul.

Summoning the Dragon Demon, Meng Chuan observed its initial excitement.

It had an expression as if never having seen such a high-grade treasure before.

With his permission, the Dragon Demon eagerly swallowed it.

It swiftly returned to the Middle Dantian, fully digesting it.

Observing internally, he found no abnormalities; the digestion process was smooth.

He then felt at ease.

What about titled Celestial Demons? The Dragon Demon has digested numerous true spirit cores, it’s quite the seasoned eater...

Finally, he caught up on the mental exercises he hadn’t completed today.

Other practices could be lessened, but not a day goes by without practicing the Demonic Heart Method, as it’s become as routine as eating and drinking water.

No, after opening the Spring Well, he can already survive on the essence of nature.

No eating or drinking is also possible...

...

Meng Chuan was practicing in the hotel, not knowing that outside, a great wave had already arisen.

That night, the internet was abuzz.

The news of [Second Limit Master counterattacking titled Celestial Demon] topped the hot search lists on major media platforms.

Apart from the widespread interest in such events due to the martial arts flourishing era.

The state is also behind the scenes, fanning the flames as a driving force.

Intending to take Meng Chuan as a role model.

The airport as the backdrop, a fierce battle with Celestial Demons.

With a ten-meter divine demon body, Meng Chuan was wrapped in golden lightning, punching forward to meet the sky demon.

This scene, a classic image that makes one’s blood vessels surge.

Printed by countless young people in Great Chu aspiring to Martial Arts.

Hung on the wall as an idol to look up to.

Just like when Meng Chuan was a child, with Principal Sui’s portrait hanging on the wall.

The 88th session of the United University [Martial Extreme True Inheritance], its fame once again resonating across the land.

...

Yong’an Lishan Mountain, United University branch campus.

In the room, Lu Zhuxiao, who was still in a standing stance, saw the news.

He was dumbfounded.

"Damn, even this brat can beat a titled Celestial Demon?"

Lu Zhuxiao found it unbelievable; having lived so long, he had occasionally heard of one-limit counterattacking two-limits.

But for a two-limit body to fiercely beat a titled Celestial Demon on par with a Three-Limit Master,

such news could be described as unheard of.

Using the Martial Arts Family’s internal structure as an example, the further in cultivation, the greater the gap in Qi Blood between realms.

Without mentioning others, the gap between one-limit and two-limit is at most a few thousand Qi Blood.

But the gap between two-limit and three-limit is several tens of thousands of Qi Blood!

The difference can be imagined.

The levels among Celestial Demons are similarly logical.

Therefore, the news of Meng Chuan challenging across levels this time is particularly shocking.

He deeply suspected whether Wudang had some great empowerment technique that was brutally transmitting power to Meng Chuan...

Or if some Wudang old monster had possessed Meng Chuan...

In any case, even personally verifying this news, he still couldn’t believe it.

Returning to his senses, Lu Zhuxiao swallowed the bitterness in his heart.

Damn, keep standing!

...

In the city under the mountain, Huayun Prefecture.

Meng Yongzhi and Xue Na stared at the phone screen, also seeing the video of Meng Chuan’s astounding actions.

The two elders were both gratified and a bit worried.

Although they didn’t know exactly how risky it was inside,

the media’s description and the demon, whose size was taller than skyscrapers,

made them both aware of the child’s difficulties.

Picking up and putting down the phone, they eventually did not make the call.

After figuring it out, Meng Yongzhi also stopped Xue Na from making the call.

"Don’t call, the child knows in his heart. He’s not stupid; for him to achieve what he has today, he’s smarter than anyone."

Xue Na lowered her eyes and said softly,

"Yes, we can only say things like be careful and pay attention to safety, which are irrelevant words, and can’t do anything.

The child himself knows, doesn’t he, without us needing to say it..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Yongzhi couldn’t help but say with a sigh,

"Truly grown up."

"Yes, grown up..."

After saying this, Xue Na couldn’t help but watch the video again.

She still found it difficult to understand how Meng Chuan became as tall as a three-story building...

...

Late at night, Fengtian City.

Northern United University headquarters.

Principal Sui’s "Forge of Wealth," still brightly lit.

No lights were on; it was his own energy converging, illuminating the room like a furnace.

The entire room was made of extremely rare high-temperature-resistant materials.

These special materials were obtained from the Demon Nest or the Celestial Demon Realm, not available in the human world.

Because his surface body temperature at this moment was completely the same as the rising and setting sun.

The secretary stood outside but hadn’t spoken when his voice came from inside the room.

"It’s about Meng Chuan, right? I know."

"Understood, then I’ll leave first."

The purpose of coming to remind was instructed by Principal Sui.

Regarding any news of Meng Chuan, it was to be reported to him immediately.

In the room, Sui Chunqiu’s figure was gone, leaving only a dazzling flame.

Learning that Meng Chuan had counter-killed a titled Celestial Demon, even someone as strong as him was slightly shocked by it.

He felt that he had just been in seclusion for a while, and how could Meng Chuan suddenly change so much?

"This kid truly is a fine jade..."

For the human race, it is a great fortune!

As for giving him more means of self-defense, Sui Chunqiu thought about it and felt it was unnecessary.

The birth of a strong person must endure a baptism of blood and fire.

He believed Meng Chuan was born at a time of great calamity, destined by fate.

With the great fortune of heaven and earth upon him, the possibility of perishing halfway is extremely small.

Most importantly, there’s the backup plan with disciple Yang Huan.

It is enough.

...

In a desolate area of Jin Land.

Li Xiao saw the news and angrily wanted to crush the phone.

"Damn, Outer Heaven is truly a group of incompetents!

Can’t they arrange more manpower? With just one more Three-Limit Demon Path Master, this kid could be slaughtered!"

He couldn’t help but lament that this kid was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with.

Could it be that he really has to take action personally, despite it being too demeaning?

After pondering for a moment, he put the phone away.

Sitting on the chair, repeatedly tapping the armrest, his gaze became increasingly fierce.

This period, it seems humans are planning a major action against the Mountain Range Divine Master.

Due to the information being limited to the high levels above Martial Arts Grandmaster, he had investigated extensively and still hadn’t learned the specific plans.
