How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 168 - 0165: The Contrast of Reality
"You people, not only do you disregard the life and death of your fellow sect members, but why must you also obstruct me!"
Chang Xuan's face was filled with indignant fury.
Caught off guard, he was jointly restrained by Huangfulin and others, sealing off his inner breath.
"Junior Brother Chang, I only wish not to see a genius disciple like you throw away his life needlessly, which would be a great loss to the Yunyue Sect."
Huangfulin sighed, looking the very picture of righteousness.
But in truth,
he was filled with envy at the opportunities Chen Yu had found in the Blood Burial Garden and had not forgotten past grudges.
Chen Yu's previous acquisition of the Mysterious Water Moth Lotus had already left him fuming with resentment.
And now, it seemed that Chen Yu had stumbled upon a great fortune again, having killed Lu Zhuo by a stroke of luck.
This was definitely a tremendous opportunity!
He even suspected that Chen Yu might have benefitted from the Blood Soul Flower, an item of great fortune.
"You fools! Junior Brother Chen's strength is not much inferior to Mei Changqing's. If we join forces, we might still stand a chance..."
Chang Xuan was frantic with anxiety and seething with anger.
"Hehe, Junior Brother Chang, you are overestimating Chen Yu. Before, he abandoned Brother Kun, escaping alone—what?"
Huangfulin's face, which had been twisted into a sneer, suddenly froze.
At that moment.
Poof! Clang! Boom!
Chen Yu and Mei Changqing, in front of the ancient hall of inheritance, exchanged a couple of hard blows.
A burst of dark and explosive air swept around them for four or five zhangs, keeping the other Bone Demon Palace disciples from getting close.
Bang!
One particularly handsome young man with long hair was jolted back two or three zhangs, his face filled with shock.
It was none other than Mei Changqing.
"This can't be real!"
Huangfulin stood dumbstruck, as if petrified.
While he spoke, he was also observing the battle, anticipating Chen Yu's death.
However, the reality was vastly different from his expectation.
...
In the first exchange.
Chen Yu's bronze fist went head-to-head with Mei Changqing.
Mmm~
Just as the bronze fist was about to burst with power, an invisible fist spirit, filled with Evil Qi, surged towards Mei Changqing's soul first.
"This Evil Qi!"
Mei Changqing's face tightened.
The domineering and chilly spirit in the Evil Qi was stronger than a typical Postnatal True Qi, causing his mind to tremble and his blood and Qi to become somewhat disordered.
In the next moment.
A roaring python-shaped dark shadow powered by the True Qi, with dark patterns swirling on its surface, emerged as if from an ink painting, a bloodthirsty behemoth coming to life, chilling to the bone.
"Postnatal True Qi? Mid-stage of Refining... how is that possible..."
Mei Changqing's face shifted to one of terror.
Crack! Boom!
The mighty bamboo shadows and the dark Qi whirls conjured by his dark green bamboo staff were forcefully ripped apart by the opponent's punch.
Out of everyone in the Blood Burial Garden, only the previously defeated Lu Zhuo could have achieved this.
What followed.
Chen Yu transformed into a shadow, suddenly drawing near, his alarming speed resembling a second Lu Zhuo!
The fight was hand-to-hand combat!
Mei Changqing even had the illusion that the heaviness Chen Yu brought upon him was slightly greater than Lu Zhuo's.
As the second punch closed in.
Whoosh!

On Chen Yu's punching arm, besides a layer of dark green True Qi, a flash of nearly imperceptible black iron patterns gleamed on his bronze-patterned skin.
With a ding.
The second punch squarely hit Mei Changqing's dark green bamboo staff.
Boom!
Mei Changqing's figure was jolted back, his face filled with horror, his staff nearly slipping from his grasp.
In reality.
He was barely holding back a mouthful of congealed blood, refusing to let it out.
This scene left the Bone Demon Palace disciples who had not made their move, or were in the midst of making their move, in utter shock.
From the brief exchange, it was clear that Chen Yu had the upper hand over Mei Changqing.
In terms of strength.
Chen Yu was even stronger than Lu Zhuo, especially when charging up his heart.
In terms of cultivation, he had also condensed Postnatal True Qi, and after taking the Blood Soul Bud, the spiritual aspect of his fist's Evil Qi became even stronger!
Regarding bloodline.
Chen Yu had acquired Lu Zhuo's "Emperor's Bloodline," which he could use purely and directly through his mysterious heart.
At this moment.
Chen Yu's only concern was not to reveal the "Emperor's Bloodline," using it only subtly to amplify his inner breath and strength.
Even so.
In one or two exchanges, Chen Yu had forced Mei Changqing back, causing the latter to suffer minor internal injuries.
Right after Chen Yu repelled Mei Changqing.
The battles elsewhere were also nearing their conclusions.
"Giggle..."
Tong Yuling chuckled, her delicate fingers flicking a point that lit up with a bloody gleam.
Pop! Clang!
That flick struck Jiang Ping's tightly stretched Black Profound Silk.
Instantly.
A thread of bloody Qi pattern, running along the black edge, backlashed onto Jiang Ping's body.
"Postnatal True Qi!"
Jiang Ping shrieked in horror, her figure flying backward a couple of zhangs, her body sliced with several bloody cuts.
With just one hit, the bloodline-powered Jiang Ping was wounded and defeated.
Mei Changqing's expression drastically changed.
He had thought their numerical advantage would ensure victory, despite his own suppression by Chen Yu.
"Ah..."
A dreadful scream echoed from the battle between War Armor Yuan Li and the cold-faced man nearby.
Swish! Rip!
A flash of purple afterimage was seen as Chen Ying'er's Purple Fox dashed like a phantom past several Bone Demon Palace disciples.
Immediately.
A newly advanced Late Stage of Organ Refining Bone Demon Palace disciple had his throat slashed, blood spurting wildly as he fell dead on the spot.
Hiss! Ah!
The cold-faced man's arm fell to the ground after being swept by a streak of purple afterglow.
War Armor Yuan Li's shoulder was also left with a bone-deep gash, narrowly missing his heart by a fraction.
"Qi Transformation Realm!"
"This fox has actually recovered to a complete Qi Transformation Realm."
Yuan Li and the cold-faced man, who survived, turned pale and took a sharp breath.
That Purple Fox, obviously an ancient beast, had regained the cultivation of the Qi Transformation Realm, and its strength might be even stronger than Mei Changqing.
Fortunately.
As the fox was protecting Chen Ying'er, after one round of attack, it returned to the girl's side, not pursuing them to the death.
"Full retreat!"
Mei Changqing was shocked, took a deep breath, and made a rational decision through gritted teeth.
His gaze swept over Chen Yu, Tong Yuling, and the Purple Fox, sweat breaking out on his forehead, and his heart stirring up a storm.
Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!
The disciples of the Bone Demon Palace, leaving behind one or two corpses and limbs, retreated in terror.
From encirclement to launching an attack, and then retreating, the whole process took less than ten breaths of time.
Just one exchange.
The Bone Demon Palace suffered a complete defeat, with even Mei Changqing, the number one talent of the palace, being defeated in a head-on battle.
Not to mention Mei Changqing.
Even if Lu Zhuo were to come back to life, facing such a powerful lineup, he too would have to retreat.
This scene.
Fell into the eyes of the nearby disciples watching the battle, every one of them inexplicably shocked.
"How could this be!"
Several disciples from the Yunyue Sect, such as Huangfulin, were as if petrified.
Huangfulin's smile froze on his face, his lips trembling slightly, turning from pale to red.
Just a moment ago.
They stopped Chang Xuan from going to rescue Chen Yu, waiting for the latter's demise.
But it was only one round of attack.
Chen Yu overwhelmed Mei Changqing, and with one pet, completely defeated the strong formation of the Bone Demon Palace.
"Hahaha..."
Chang Xuan struggled to his feet, laughing with shock and ecstasy.
"Senior Brother Huangfu, is this the Junior Brother Chen you refused to rescue, the Junior Brother Chen you didn't want to overestimate?"
There was mockery in Chang Xuan's laughter.
At this moment.
He felt an immense sense of relief, particularly when he saw Huangfulin's almost green face.
"Senior Brother Chang, you can't blame us for this."
"It was Huangfulin who instructed us to do so, actually, everyone really wanted to save Junior Brother Chen..."
The accompanying Yunyue Sect disciples, their faces changing faster than the weather, immediately betrayed Huangfulin.
Seeing Chen Yu overpower Mei Changqing of the Qi Transformation Realm, they couldn't be clearer that a new prodigy of the Yunyue Sect had emerged.
Possibly.
Chen Yu now had the strength to challenge the position of Chief Disciple.
"You... you..."
Huangfulin trembled with rage, his blood rushing to his head, nearly fainting on the spot.
At this time.
Chen Yu, along with Chen Ying'er, arrived at the nearby area and seemed to notice the few people from the Yunyue Sect.
"Junior Brother Chen... oh no, Senior Brother Chen!"
"Senior Brother, you were awe-inspiring just now, defeating Mei Changqing and truly bringing glory to our Yunyue Sect."
"With Senior Brother's strength, you deserve the title of number one prodigy of all three sects... No! The number one talent of Chu Country!"
Several Yunyue Sect disciples, one after another, rushed forward to greet him, lavishing flattery.
Chang Xuan looked on with a contented smile, not saying a word, just gazing at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu casually dealt with the others, his eyes stopping on Chang Xuan, and the two brothers exchanged smiles.
On the other side, Huangfulin's face was stiff, and he was cold-shouldered by all the disciples.
At this moment.
Chen Yu, being the person involved, made Huangfulin extremely uncomfortable, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.
Fortunately.
Chen Yu didn't quite understand the specific situation here and didn't pay any attention to Huangfulin, simply talking with Chang Xuan.
"Junior Brother, I thought I saw Tong Yuling just now, why hasn't she come over?"
Chang Xuan asked with a puzzled expression.
"Her situation is a bit special..."
Chen Yu transmitted his voice and briefly explained a thing or two to Chang Xuan.
After repelling the people from the Bone Demon Palace, Tong Yuling greeted Chen Yu and then left alone.
Chen Yu had an intuition.
Tong Yuling would no longer be the Senior Sister Tong of the past, and perhaps would never return.
It was evident.
She was quite familiar with this secret space, and may have a myriad of connections with the former owner of the Blood Burial Garden.
This could be discerned from the Blood Lotus Robe worn by Tong Yuling, which resembled the statue of the blood-colored woman, and her knowledge of numerous secret techniques.
A moment later.
The Yunyue Sect members arrived at a stronghold in the Central Garden.
Here.
Chen Yu saw the severely injured Fang Haofei and others, as well as Xie Jing and other disciples, caring for them on the side.
Upon hearing that Chen Yu had defeated Mei Changqing, Fang Haofei and the other injured were overjoyed.
"Junior Brother Chen, we overestimated ourselves before and tried to stop Lu Zhuo, Brother Kun he..."
Fang Haofei thought of something, smiled bitterly.
"It seems, Junior Brother Chen, you have already taken revenge on Lu Zhuo..."
Xie Jing's eyes were moist and red, feeling a sense of relief when she saw the animal hide armor on Chen Yu.
After Kun Ling's death, she had sworn an oath to avenge her beloved.
Even though Xie Jing understood that the possibility was almost nil.
Meanwhile.
Her gaze at Chen Yu was complicated, gratitude was not the word, hate? It couldn't rise within her.
Remembering Kun Ling's death, and how it was in vain, Chen Yu sighed in his heart.
Suddenly thinking of something.
Chen Yu took out three portions of Mysterious Water Moth Lotus, giving one to each Chang Xuan, Fang Haofei, and Xie Jing.
At present.
Chen Yu had refined the Cloud Evil True Qi, advanced to the Late Stage of Organ Refining, and even breaking through to the Qi Transformation Realm wouldn't be too obstructed.
And he had consumed a small portion of the "Blood Soul Bud," still having a lot of potential to digest, lessening his need for the Mysterious Water Moth Lotus.
After a good while.
Chen Yu announced, "Fellow disciples, the Blood Burial Garden may close ahead of schedule. We must seize the last bit of time and scavenge for more heavenly materials and earthly treasures before we return."
