Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 389: Calamity Pill

As Li Yong's voice fell, the entire hall instantly descended into a deathly silence, and everyone present looked utterly shocked.

If it were one of the three kings or the seven supremes possessing ten million merit, they naturally wouldn't be surprised.

However, the person before them was merely a nobody with a cultivation at the Seventh Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm, yet he also possessed ten million merit. How could they not be astonished?

"What is his name?"

Dongfang Ren asked with an incredibly grim expression.

"Wang Ruoxie."

Although he had already guessed in his mind, Dongfang Ren's pupils involuntarily contracted upon hearing these three words.

"What... he's the guy who earned ten million merit points in just one short month?"

"How is that possible? With just a mere cultivation at the Seventh Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm, how could he possibly earn ten million merit in one month?"

"He must have used some deceitful means; otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible."

...

After a brief silence, everyone in the hall started looking at Wang Ruoxie with skeptical eyes. Almost no one believed, or rather, no one was willing to believe, that Wang Ruoxie could achieve such a feat.

"So, you are Wang Ruoxie."

Dongfang Ren's eyes flickered as he spoke to Wang Ruoxie.

Unlike the others, he didn't doubt Wang Ruoxie, because his father had mentioned that this person seemed to own an extremely powerful warship, equipped with inscribed cannons that were very likely Annihilation Cannons.

According to his father's speculation, this individual's warship was at least a middle-grade Saint Tier vessel, and it might even be an upper-grade Saint Tier vessel.

One must know that even among the Black Dragon Guard, or in the entire Outer Battlefield, there weren't many middle-grade Saint Tier warships from all the forces of the Nine Major Regions of the Yuanwu Continent.

As for upper-grade Saint Tier warships, there wasn't a single one, which implied that with just one warship, this person could contend against major forces.

"If you encounter him, you must befriend him at all costs, even if it means paying a high price to win him over."

This was a sentence Dongfang Ren recalled his father saying in his mind.

"Does my merit not disappoint you? Do you still think you can afford my seat now?"

Wang Ruoxie looked at Dongfang Ren indifferently as he spoke.

Upon hearing Wang Ruoxie's words, Dongfang Ren's face couldn't help but turn even more unsightly. He had just tried to use fifty thousand merit points to buy a seat from Wang Ruoxie, who had ten million merit, and now he felt his face burning as if receiving a hard slap.

Though he intensely hated Wang Ruoxie in his heart, Dongfang Ren didn't show it any further, for he clearly knew that Wang Ruoxie, with his powerful warship, was not someone he could contend with.

However, this humiliation today, he vowed to repay it manifold, and most importantly, he needed to get his hands on that powerful warship no matter what.

Dongfang Ren never realized that he had brought this upon himself, for if he had not tried to force Wang Ruoxie's seat, none of this would have happened.

Ignoring Dongfang Ren, Wang Ruoxie turned his gaze toward Li Yong and said, "Help me convert all my merits into Calamity Pills."

Originally, he planned to exchange for some heavenly materials and earthly treasures or higher-tier demon beast essence blood to enhance his cultivation power. However, since the Treasure Pavilion offered Calamity Pills for exchange, he no longer needed to exchange for other cultivation resources.

It could be said that for a martial cultivator at the Purple Mansion Realm, the Calamity Pill was the best cultivation resource.

The Calamity Pill is among the top tier of Eighth Grade pills, and when it comes to the best pill for enhancing cultivation at the Purple Mansion Realm, it would undoubtedly be the Calamity Pill.

However, generally, martial cultivators at the Purple Mansion Realm, especially those in the late stage, find it not so easy to use Calamity Pills to enhance their cultivation, or achieve breakthroughs unless they have a sufficient quantity.

Typically, a martial cultivator at the Seventh Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm would need at least ten Calamity Pills to break through to the Eighth Layer. As for Wang Ruoxie seeking to break through to the Eighth Layer, without dozens, if not hundreds, of Calamity Pills, it's almost impossible.

Fortuitously, he had gained ten million merit points this time. Otherwise, with each Calamity Pill priced at two thousand merit points, he would have struggled to exchange for enough to enhance his cultivation realm, let alone attempt to reach the Pocket World Realm.

Soon, Li Yong converted Wang Ruoxie's ten million merit points into five hundred Calamity Pills.

Receiving the Identity Jade Plate and Calamity Pills from Li Yong, Wang Ruoxie walked straight out of the Treasure Pavilion.

"Continue your arrogance for a few more days. Once I break through to the Pocket World Realm, I will take your life."

Watching Wang Ruoxie's back, a cold glint appeared in Dongfang Ren's eyes.

"It's best not to provoke me, otherwise, regardless of your status, you will die."

Of course, Wang Ruoxie sensed the killing intent from behind and secretly smirked to himself.

Moments later, Wang Ruoxie returned to his residence.

Without delay, he prepared to use the five hundred Calamity Pills he had just exchanged to enhance his cultivation realm and, if possible, directly strike for the Pocket World Realm.

Operating the Nine Transformation Primordial Scripture, which had already reached the Great Success of the Second Transformation, Wang Ruoxie began refining the Calamity Pills.

The potency of the Calamity Pills was extremely strong. Even for him, the refining process would not be fast.

Fortunately, his Blood Soul had broken through to the First Grade of the Saint Tier not long ago. Otherwise, refining these five hundred Calamity Pills might have taken him at least a year and a half.

As time slowly passed, Wang Ruoxie continued to refine one Calamity Pill after another, and the aura emanating from him rose rapidly as a result.

"Boom!"

A muffled sound echoed from within Wang Ruoxie's body as his cultivation realm finally broke through to the Eighth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Wang Ruoxie did not stop and continued refining the Calamity Pills.

Eighth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Peak of the Eighth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Ninth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

After refining three hundred Calamity Pills, Wang Ruoxie's cultivation finally advanced to the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Next, he would use the remaining two hundred Calamity Pills to strike for the Pocket World Realm.

In order to break through to the Pocket World Realm, one must transform the Purple Mansion Space within into a true Pocket World.

Although a Pocket World is not exactly a true independent micro-world, it still requires the support of the Power of Space. Therefore, without comprehending Space Profound Technique, it is impossible to step into the Pocket World Realm.

One could say that the most challenging aspect of breaking through to the Pocket World Realm is not enhancing the cultivation realm or accumulating cultivation resources, but rather comprehending Space Profound Technique.

However, understanding the Space Profound Technique is far more difficult than enhancing one's cultivation. Without great fortune or exceptional insight, it's nearly impossible to comprehend the Space Profound Technique.

This is precisely why countless individuals at the Purple Mansion Realm spend their entire lives unable to break through to the Pocket World Realm.

However, Wang Ruoxie had already comprehended a trace of Space Profound Technique during his Qi Condensation stage. Now, with his cultivation rising to the late stage of the Purple Mansion Realm, he finally had complete mastery of this trace of Space Profound Technique.

Thus, in his attempt to break through to the Pocket World Realm this time, he hardly faced any barriers.
