How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 197 - 0194: He Brothers (Resuming Updates)

"...At that time, you better not hide your talents. If you perform exceptionally and brilliantly, there might be unexpected benefits."

Ye Luofeng seemed to have done some research on the hunting tournament.

This woman actually took the initiative to advise Chen Yu to make an effort to stand out at the tournament, and it would be best not to conceal his skill.

Chen Yu was slightly startled but somewhat skeptical at heart.

His focus was currently all on advancing to the Qi Transformation Realm; he had little interest in other matters.

He figured that as long as his strength was formidable enough, wouldn't the opportunities and benefits come his way without the need to vie for them?

Luckily, the hunting tournament was a month and a half away, which did not conflict with his plan to advance to the Qi Transformation Realm.

His advancement to the Qi Transformation Realm would take at most ten days to half a month.

"Among you ten, seven are native disciples, and three are guest elders. These are tentatively the ten spots for our Fu Family to participate in the hunting tournament."

Uncle Lin added from the side.

Seven native disciples, three guest elders.

At the behest of the family head and others, these ten young talents got to know each other a bit.

Native disciples, they all knew each other, so no introductions were needed.

Among the ten spots, having three guest elders was a form of "external assistance."

According to the rules of the hunting tournament, each clan or power could only send a maximum of three external assistants.

Besides Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng, there was a third guest elder spot on the scene.

That was a burly and tall man with a mole between his eyebrows.

This man wore a hostile expression, and his gaze occasionally swept toward Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.

Then,

Perhaps due to Ye Luofeng's peerless beauty and high cultivation, his unfriendly gaze ultimately settled on Chen Yu.

"Chen Yu, be careful of 'He Dabao'!"

Fu Yanzi warned him through a secret transmission.

"This person is a second-level minister of our Fu Family. He's not yet twenty years old, yet possesses the cultivation of the middle stage of postnatal, and was heavily recruited by the family head specifically for the hunting tournament."

He Dabao?

Chen Yu looked at the man with the mole between his eyebrows, giving him an extra glance or two.

He wondered what this had to do with himself.

Soon,

Fu Yanzi resolved the doubts in his mind.

"He Dabao also has a younger brother named 'He Xiaobao,' who is half a step into postnatal Qi Transformation. Originally, they were both definite choices for the three guest elder spots."

Fu Yanzi explained.

Upon hearing this,

Chen Yu had a sudden realization.

Not only did the hunting tournament carry rich rewards, but it also seemed to be a great opportunity that the younger generation yearned to partake in.

However,

The appearance of Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng had taken up two of those spots.

With a total of three guest elder spots, including He Dabao, the quota was filled, and his younger brother He Xiaobao lost the chance to participate this time.

After confirming their spots and getting acquainted with each other, the group of young people dispersed.

At the entrance of the hall.

Chen Yu had just walked out when a strong gust swept before him, bringing along an invisible surge of Qi pressure.

"What advice does Your Excellency have?"

Chen Yu looked unconcerned as he stared at the burly and tall man before him.

It was He Dabao.

This man's cultivation in the middle stage of postnatal surpassed that of Fu Hong and Fu Jing from this generation of the Fu Family.

His strength was almost comparable to some of the Hall Masters of the Yunyue Sect.

"Chen Yu, right? I believe you understand my purpose here."

He Dabao twisted his neck, his postnatal True Qi faintly radiating from him, the invisible oppression continuing to escalate.

If an ordinary cultivator at the Organ Refining Stage were in his place, their inner Qi would likely become chaotic.

The deliberate oppression of the Qi Transformation Realm also contained a level of mental pressure, not to be taken lightly.

However,

The young man in his view, dressed in tattered beast hide armor, seemed completely unaffected.

He Dabao was taken aback.

The other party was completely ignoring the pressure from his presence, which was a whole stage higher, and it was not a pretense of calmness.

"Chen Yu, the spot in the hunting tournament is of extraordinary significance to me and my brother."

He Dabao's voice then softened.

His tone became much more gentle, as if implying a negotiation on equal terms.

"Is that so? The hunting tournament is a grand event encompassing the territory of an entire manor; it seems to be a rare opportunity for any talented youth."

Chen Yu said with a half-smile.

He had previously been indifferent about the hunting tournament.

Now, someone was actually coming forward to dispute a spot, and coupled with Ye Luofeng's reminder, he suddenly became interested.

If He Dabao knew what he was thinking, he might feel the urge to cough up blood.

"A hundred thousand lesser Grade Essence Stones."

He Dabao produced a bargaining chip.

As long as Chen Yu was willing to give up his spot to his disciple, a hundred thousand lesser Grade Essence Stones would be his gift.

Chen Yu was slightly moved but did not agree.

"Plus, a mid-grade treasure and a three-hundred-year-old Blood Ginseng."

He Dabao clenched his teeth slightly.

"Understand that with your Organ Refining Stage cultivation, it will be difficult for you to gain fame at the hunting tournament and attract the attention of those major figures."

He Dabao spoke earnestly.

"Sorry, I've decided to participate in this hunting tournament."

Chen Yu shook his head.

Without giving He Dabao any further attention, Chen Yu walked away directly.

He Dabao watched as Chen Yu departed, his expression shifting unpredictably.

"The hunting tournament, held only once every three years, is an opportunity for a carp to transform into a dragon. My brother absolutely cannot miss out on it!"

He Dabao took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind.

Moments later,

At the Fu Residence, atop a pavilion on the water.

A Fu Family's Disciple stood before He Dabao, with a servile demeanor.

"...That's everything I know about the origins of these two."

The Fu Family's Disciple finished speaking.

Learning about the deeds of Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng, He Dabao's frown deepened.

"That Ye Luofeng, even I may not necessarily be able to defeat her."

"As for Chen Yu, according to the description at the time, and the details of how he killed the Cloud Pattern Leopard, it might be exaggerated, and perhaps assisted by Ye Luofeng, who is in the late stage of postnatal."

He Dabao contemplated.

If he made a move to challenge, he was confident he could crush Chen Yu.

But,

when his brother He Xiaobao issued the challenge, the odds of winning were hardly more than fifty percent.

He Dabao pondered for a long time before a hint of coldness flashed across his face, seemingly coming to some resolution.

...

Returning to his courtyard residence.

Chen Yu prepared for his breakthrough into the Qi Transformation Realm, making final preparations.

At this very moment,

his cultivation had reached the Peak of Organ Refining, possessing Cloud Evil True Qi, with an astonishing maturity in his power.

Both his physical and mental states, especially on the spiritual level, became even clearer and more lucid after being adjusted by the Moon Spirit Ore Mother.

Lastly,

before advancing, Chen Yu took out a small piece of high-quality Moon Spirit Ore.

Using the method he learned back at Yan Family Castle, he crushed the Moon Spirit Ore into powder and brewed a simple pot of Moon Spirit Liquid with boiling water.

That pot of boiling water transformed instantly into a mysterious silver liquid, emanating a faint glow reminiscent of moonlight.

Chen Yu remembered clearly

that at Yan Family Castle, his rapid progress, which exceeded expectations, was the result of the effects of the Moon Spirit Liquid.

Afterward,

he concluded that the Moon Spirit Liquid's enhancement of one's intrinsic quality and physique was mainly due to its first-time use; the effect of subsequent consumption was minimal.

But this time,

he was using high-grade Moon Spirit Ore, excavated near the ancient Transmission Array's Moon Spirit Ore Wall.

Glug!

Chen Yu tipped back his head and downed a pot of high-quality Moon Spirit Liquid, completing his final preparations for the assault on the Qi Transformation Realm.

In an instant,

a long-missed cool and moist sensation began permeating and moisturizing Chen Yu's body bit by bit.

His flesh, bones, and organs were undergoing a mysterious cleansing and purification under the influence of the Moon Spirit Liquid.

Not only that,

but even Chen Yu's spiritual consciousness was bathed and moistened, feeling ethereal.

In the depths of his being,

Chen Yu felt his body and physique crossing a certain threshold, accompanied by an indescribable sensation.

And then,

he practiced the Yunyue Sect's central cultivation technique, the Yuan Sha Divine Skill. The internal breath and True Qi within his body moved more vigorously through his meridians than ever before.

The flow remained unobstructed.

However, the affinity between the True Qi and the meridians had noticeably increased.

"Could it be that my Spiritual Body's quality has improved?"

Chen Yu had a bold thought.

A Half Spirit Body's innate qualities shouldn't have such compatibility with the energy of the primordial essence.

Just as Chen Yu was puzzling over this,

"Chen Yu, if you don't come out right now..."

A sharp teenage voice came from inside the courtyard.

Who is it?

Chen Yu's expression turned grim; before he had sequestered himself, he had informed the servants outside not to allow any disturbances.

It hadn't even been half a day.

At this moment,

two young men stood in the courtyard.

One with a birthmark between his eyebrows, the burly man was He Dabao.

Before He Dabao stood a teenager who had a similar facial contour and a birthmark at the corner of his mouth.

This young man was He Dabao's brother, He Xiaobao.

"Lord He! I swear I'm telling the truth! Guest Chen... just started his retreat today."

A servant said with a wry smile.

"Hmph! This Chen Yu is really cunning. Worried about being challenged for his spot, he has resorted to such tricks."

He Dabao said, his face betraying his anger.

Following the breakout from the council hall, he had sent someone to monitor Chen Yu.

It turns out,

the first thing Chen Yu did upon returning was to close his doors to visitors, and He Dabao finally lost his patience.

"Xiaobao! That Chen Yu has just begun his retreat; he's bound to come out."

He Dabao whispered.

"When it's your turn, execute the plan as discussed, use that secret technique, and with the small dose of the 'Bursting Qi Pill' you took in advance, your strength will be guaranteed to double."

"Don't worry, big brother. I'll guarantee to defeat him in an instant to a point where he won't be able to leave his bed for a month or two, and the spot will naturally be mine."

He Xiaobao's birthmarked corner of the mouth curled into a hint of a smile.

Creak!

At that moment, the door opened and a young man clad in a beast hide armor emerged.

Seeing Chen Yu come out, both He Dabao and He Xiaobao's eyes brightened, revealing a smug look of triumph.

Chen Yu's face, however, didn't look too good.

After all, he was prepared to break through to the Qi Transformation Realm, and all was in readiness.

"It's just as well, better to deal with these buffoons early than to be disturbed during the critical moment of breaking through to the Qi Transformation Realm."

Chen Yu quickly came to this conclusion.

This further strengthened his resolve to deal decisively with the challenger.

"Chen Yu! Enough chitchat. My brother is here to challenge you for the spot at the Hunting Contest."

He Dabao said with full confidence.

Without a word, Chen Yu walked onto the open courtyard floor.

The He brothers were slightly taken aback, not expecting Chen Yu to be so forthright.

Zing!

He Xiaobao, carrying an aggressive and violent wind with him, dashed onto the open floor.

His eyes showed traces of bloodshot, and a tumultuous surge of internal breath erupted from within him, nearly on par with Postnatal True Qi.

Mixed into this, there seemed to be an essence of elixir strength.

Moreover,

He Xiaobao's Qi Sea condensed, and his internal breath surged like a torrential flood, explosively erupting.

Boom!

He Xiaobao's face nearly contorted as he swung a single fist, sending out a layer of faint grey fist energy visible to the naked eye, resembling a rolling millstone with a ring of thick dust and rock debris, enveloping Chen Yu with a crash.

Whoosh!

The force of the punch left a trench in the courtyard, a foot deep and several meters long, as the fierce wind howled.

"Comparable to a strike from the Postnatal Qi Transformation stage, slightly better than the Postnatal Early Stage!"

He Dabao, observing from the side, had a trace of joy flit across his face.
