Chen Fan was speechless. He had taken the risk to enter the Fire Apes’ territory, yet Nie Tao wasn’t letting up. If the Fire Apes discovered them, they both would die.
He suddenly smiled coldly. Since Nie Tao was so relentless, he would use this opportunity against him.
He immediately rubbed his palms together, forming the Heaven Piercing Spear. He hurled it toward a young Fire Ape, who was in the Yuanfu realm.
Next, he quickly withdrew his aura, suppressing it using the Heaven Seizing Furnace, and plunged, like he was diving into water.
Puchi!
The Heaven Piercing Spear, carrying terrifying rotational power, turned that young Fire Ape into a mist of blood. The nearby Fire Apes were all stunned.
But this act of aggression was like lighting a powder keg.
“Roar!”
“Roar, roar!”
“Roar, roar, roar!”
The Fire Apes were enraged,
They were completely furious!
Someone had dared to invade their territory and kill one of their own.
Their roars filled the sky, and their flames burned even more fiercely as they pounded their chests in anger.
These Fire Apes immediately caught sight of Nie Tao and assumed he was the attacker. They charged at him like a swarm of fiery meteors.
Nie Tao quickly realized the situation. The madness in his eyes faded, replaced by resentment. He noticed that Chen Fan's aura had completely vanished.
Chen Fan, as still as a stone, had withdrawn his aura entirely and plunged downward.
Because his aura was withdrawn, those Fire Apes did not sense him. They only sensed Nie Tao and rushed toward him, their murderous qi overwhelming, intent on tearing him apart.
Nie Tao cursed out loud. Chen Fan had cunningly used the Fire Apes against him.
Under normal circumstances, Nie Tao wouldn’t fear facing these apes. He could easily escape. However, his true primeval was nearly exhausted. He was running on empty.
Chen Fan took a deep breath. He immediately sensed his insides growing restless, as if the blood-colored rice were fatally attractive to him.
He immediately realized that these rice ears were not ordinary.
He strode over, plucked off a rice ear, and extracted the grain of rice. He discovered that the rice grain was also crimson, translucent, and shaped like a true dragon.
The grain of rice was three inches long and one inch wide. It wasn’t big but was as heavy as a block of iron.
As he examined it closely, his restlessness grew even more intense. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Chen Fan. He remembered a name: Dragon Blood Rice.
“This is... Dragon Blood Rice!”
He saw records about the Dragon Blood Rice in one of the ancient books in the Spring Autumn Sect.
This was a very rare and precious variety of rice. It only grew in places with large amounts of a true dragon’s divine blood or next to a dragon’s tomb.
This kind of rice grew by absorbing the blood of a true dragon and their qi. Each crop produced a single ear of rice, bearing just one grain of Dragon Blood Rice. These grains were incredibly valuable, containing the power of a true dragon’s bloodline.
Consuming Dragon Blood Rice for a long period would not only slowly imbue a person with a true dragon’s bloodline, but also strengthen their physique, granting them some qualities of a true dragon.
Typically, martial artists stopped eating regular food after breaking through to the Yuanfu realm.
Their life-sustaining energy transitioned from food to primeval qi, elixirs, and primeval stones. They could go without food for a hundred years without issue.
Moreover, ordinary food couldn’t meet the energy needs of martial artists, regardless of how much they consumed.
This gave rise to the old saying, "Those who consume qi are undying like gods."
Dragon Blood Rice was different, however. They contained the energy of a true dragon’s bloodline and could temper one’s flesh. Consuming it over a prolonged period would make someone's flesh unimaginably strong, eventually rivaling that of a true dragon.
“What a jackpot, what heavenly luck I have. I didn’t expect to pick up such great benefits. I must be the favorite child of heaven and earth!”
Chen Fan nearly burst out in laughter.
It would not be easy for his Myriad Elephants Divine Art to break through to the fifteenth layer.
He had killed many demonic beasts that possessed a trace of a true dragon’s bloodline. Refining their blood had loosened the Myriad Elephants Divine Art bottleneck, but it was still far from enough.
Originally, Chen Fan had somewhat given up on it. He had planned to borrow the powers of his heavenly tribulation to advance his Myriad Elephants Divine Art when he broke through to the Divine Nascent realm. But now, with this Dragon Blood Rice, there was great hope.
