Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 450 - 440: Got It

"No!" Gu Qingcheng immediately cried out with alarm and moved to rush forward.

"Don’t be impulsive!" Fu Xue hurriedly held her back.

"Don’t rush, don’t rush, Hao definitely isn’t someone who dies young, and both he and that girl are blessed with great Qi Luck, it’s not possible for them to die so easily." Fat Cat also said from the side, but sweat actually broke out on its face, obviously it was just saying this, not very confident inside.

The three women also knew that rushing forward would only be delivering themselves to death, all calmed down, but their hearts were still in turmoil, their only hope was for the ice encasing Chu Hao and the other to quickly melt, to prove they were still alive.

However, compared to Gu Qingcheng and the other two women who still had faith in Chu Hao, other people naturally didn’t think that way, all of them sighed repeatedly.

They had wanted to take advantage, to snatch the Black Soul Flower after Chu Hao and the other dissolved the Cold Liquid, but now Chu Hao and Su Wanyue obviously had failed. But come to think about it, this was normal, if even a War Venerate was helpless before the cold, if they could dissolve it, then there really would be no justice in this world.

Jin Yuanheng was also somewhat surprised, Su Wanyue was a War King, how could she be so foolish, knowingly heading to her death? What a pity, he didn’t even get to see her true face.

He could vaguely imagine that Su Wanyue must be an exceptionally beautiful woman, naturally feeling a reluctance at the thought of her beauty fading away like a flower wilting.

"Forget it, let’s go, even the War Venerate can’t claim it, so we have even less hope."

"There are still many Spiritual Medicines in the valley, we don’t have to focus on this Black Soul Flower."

"That’s right, who doesn’t want to become a War God, but how many can truly succeed?"

"Let’s go."

Some people gave up, but some did not, like Jin Yuanheng.

He was already a high tier War King, ordinary Spiritual Medicines wouldn’t catch his eye at all, what he needed were only those that could aid in breaking through to War Venerate and benefit War Venerate cultivation. For a prodigy like him, he naturally had an immensely strong will, he absolutely would not give up unless he tried every possible method.

People kept arriving, and also kept leaving in disappointment, as time continued to pass.

...

Chu Hao and Su Wanyue fell into great crisis, their bodies encased in ice, only a thread away from death.

The only thing preserving their slim chance for survival was that their Taiyin and Taiyang constitutions were ultimately the strongest in the world, now retreating deep into their bodies, just guarding vital areas like the heart and brain.

With the Yin Yang Qi flowing, Su Wanyue still refined the Cold Liquid, this was their only chance to turn the situation around.

Either Su Wanyue would refine the Thousand Cold Ice, or they would be forever sealed in ice by it.

Both Chu Hao and Su Wanyue were individuals with great perseverance, their will extremely firm and unyielding, facing such a life-or-death crisis not only did they not panic, but instead, they became calmer, their fighting spirit more resolute.

Although they seemed to be at an absolute disadvantage at the moment, because the two constitutions were only tightly guarding the last one or two areas, this power also became stronger, Su Wanyue finally took a substantial step.

She began to refine the Cold Liquid.

The process was slow, but it was the first step of a thousand miles, and also the most crucial one.

The refining process was very slow, after all, she didn’t have a Flame Furnace, and even as a War King, she could not compare with Chu Hao.

But one step at a time, she firmly continued forward.

As bits of the cold air were refined, Chu Hao also began to benefit, because of the dual supplement of Yin Yang Qi, not only Su Wanyue benefitted, though she was eating meat, he was only able to drink some broth, so to speak.

The Cold Liquid was continuously refined, and Chu Hao and the other began to regain lost ground, their blood flowing again, bursting with endless vitality.

Crack, crack, crack, cracks started to form on the ice encasing their bodies.

"Hahaha, they’re alive!" The Barbaric Girl immediately jumped up in joy, Gu Qingcheng was so excited that she even cried.

Jin Yuanheng’s gaze became tense, the "resurrection" of these two meant they had overcome the most difficult step, from now on they would advance triumphantly, unimpeded by any obstacles.

He took a deep breath, from this moment on, he had to be ready to seize the Black Soul Flower at any time.

Crack, crack, crack, the layers of ice on Chu Hao and the other’s bodies started to split open and fall off. At this moment, a powerful flame rose from Chu Hao’s body, while Su Wanyue’s was surrounded by disordered cold air, one fire and one water, though they should be incompatible, yet coexisted peacefully in an incredibly delicate balance, like vines entwined, nurturing each other’s growth.

As Su Wanyue refined more and more Cold Liquid, her refining speed also increased, because she had gained the upper hand in this unusual battle, as one grew stronger and the other weaker, she naturally became more powerful.

The originally calm surface of the Cold Pool began to emit mist, resembling boiling kettle water, and the surface started to ripple.

Chu Hao and Su Wanyue, through a marvelous union, sensed clearly that the level of the Cold Pool had not dropped at all, yet the substances inside that truly carried the icy effect had been nearly completely absorbed by Su Wanyue.

In at most one more hour, we’ll have achieved total success.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, forty minutes—Chu Hao was keenly aware, until finally, when the last trace of Cold Liquid had been absorbed into Su Wanyue’s body, he suddenly shouted, "Run!"

There were still many people waiting around, hoping to catch their chance by surprise. Startled by this sudden roar, they all jumped in response, some instinctively turning to flee, while most did not move, stunned into a daze by the shout.

Whoosh, the Barbaric Girl had been ready to spring into action, and at once her legs powered up and she shot forward like a bolt of lightning.

Being a Body Cultivation expert, every bit of her flesh was imbued with formidable power, and when it came to explosive speed, she absolutely crushed all of her peers at the same High Tier. But at that moment, another figure flew out, even a hair’s breadth faster than the girl.

Jin Yuanheng! War King!

Damn it, Gu Qingcheng and Fu Xue internally cried out in alarm—no one expected that Jin Yuanheng had such great patience, and he managed to maintain his state at its best, seizing the brief moment to react.

Jin Yuanheng couldn’t help revealing a hint of a smile; the Black Soul Flower was merely a foot away from his hand, about to become his personal spoils.

Boom!

A fist suddenly burst out from an angle, aiming straight for Jin Yuanheng’s chest.

It was Chu Hao!

Jin Yuanheng snorted, merely extending his left hand to meet Chu Hao’s fist while his right hand continued unwaveringly towards the Black Soul Flower.

Chu Hao couldn’t help but reveal a smile, promptly withdrawing his fist.

In fact, all of his power was currently assisting Su Wanyue in Refining the Cold Liquid; he didn’t have any spare strength to deal with Jin Yuanheng. That punch was just for show. But let’s not forget the special nature of this place.

A hum, Jin Yuanheng’s fist reached in front of Chu Hao, imprints on both individuals lit up simultaneously, and a mysterious power emerged without warning, blasting Jin Hengyuan away.

Jin Yuanheng was stunned and immediately burst into fury, shouting, "How despicable!"

Those with the same mark could not fight each other; whoever took action would be the one sent flying. Chu Hao seemed to strike first but withdrew before reaching a "safe distance." Jin Yuanheng, however, did not withdraw, making it look as though he was the one attacking Chu Hao.

As a result, the one sent flying was he, Jin Yuanheng.

It didn’t harm him in the slightest, but the problem was... the Barbaric Girl had already swept in, gently plucked the Black Soul Flower, and stowed it away.

"Damn it!" Jin Yuanheng roared in anger. He had already dissipated his initial momentum and instantly sprang back into action, glaring at the girl with a terrifying gaze, "Hand over the Black Soul Flower, or else, you die!"

"You make it sound as if I’m so scared!" The girl patted her chest and stuck out her tongue, "Sheesh, I’m not afraid of you. Come on, if you dare, make your move." She wasn’t dumb—forget the War King, even a War Venerate couldn’t touch her. Who could take anything from her when they were from the same tribe?

Jin Yuanheng’s eyes were ablaze. He could hardly believe that, as a prodigy, he had been outmaneuvered! Instinctively reacting to an attack is a natural response, especially for those with great Martial Talent—it’s a very strong inclination. Who wouldn’t react to an attack?

But Chu Hao had taken advantage of exactly this instinctual response to deal Jin Yuanheng a severe blow.

Jin Yuanheng was quivering with rage, bellowing as his hands slashed repeatedly, creating an immense flurry of explosions within the valley, causing numerous rocks to crumble and fall—a terrifying sight indeed.

A War King’s rampage was not to be taken lightly.

After venting for a while, Jin Yuanheng eventually calmed down. He gave Chu Hao a cold look, said nothing threatening, and simply turned to leave.

—Now was not the time for empty talk which would only invite ridicule. A prodigy like him was a man of action, and once the holy war was over, he would surely settle accounts with Chu Hao.

Chu Hao watched him go, utterly unconcerned, for such a vast war would likely last a year or two, and by then he’d definitely have entered the ranks of the War Kings. Who would he fear then?

He simply focused all his effort on helping Su Wanyue Refine the Cold Liquid. Although her Realm was higher than his, her physique was far inferior, and the closer their physiques, the better the effect of the Dual Cultivation of Taiyin and Taiyang.

The people around watched the Barbaric Girl with immense envy, but members of the same tribe could not make a move against each other. Even if the girl was just a Martial Disciple instead of a Body Cultivation War General, who could forcibly take from her?

Everyone could only disperse, after all, Red Flame Ridge still held other opportunities, and there was no need to hang onto this one tree.

Some time later, Su Wanyue ceased her cultivation efforts, and a hint of undeniable joy emerged on her beautiful face, though she had already redonned her veil, hiding her charming smile away from prying eyes.

She had completely refined the Thousand Cold Ice. However, to fully convert the benefits of the Cold Liquid into a boost in her physique would take time to manifest, but it would only be a matter of a month or two.

Chu Hao laughed heartily, saying, "Congratulations, congratulations."

"Thank you," Su Wanyue nodded her head. Without Chu Hao’s help, she would have never achieved this. And after surviving Ghost Gate Pass together, a bond of absolute trust had been forged between them.

"Enough gazing into each other’s eyes, let’s get a move on!" Gu Qingcheng said discontentedly, taking the lead to move on. (To be continued.
