Chapter 2038 (Raw 2133): Acquired Divine Body

Night fell in Condensing Cloud City. As Xiao Chen walked the streets, the city remained bustling and bright despite the lateness of the night.

After three months of cultivation, Xiao Chen’s Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art was already very close to Peak Consummation of the sixth layer. He could break through at any moment.

Hence, he chose not to leave immediately. He found lodging at an unremarkable inn.

After Xiao Chen checked into the inn, he sat down cross-legged and entered a state of cultivation.

His energy flowed for the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art. His breathing rhythm changed with the circulation method.

After a while, azure Dragon Qi soared up from Xiao Chen’s body, blazing like a flame.

The impurities in his body burned up in the flames, slowly eliminated from his body.

The Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art continuously altered Xiao Chen’s physical body, quietly transforming it into an acquired Divine Body.

An acquired Divine Body was not achieved in one day. From the moment Xiao Chen started cultivating the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art, his body already started changing.

Dragon bones, dragon veins, and dragon blood. Xiao Chen had not realized that these changes were to prepare for the acquired Divine Body.

When the first light of the sun shone into the room from the east, brightening the sky, purple Qi appeared.

Following that, the purple Qi flowed into the room in a steady stream under the sunlight.

Xiao Chen’s body gave off an azure mist, and crunching sounds came from his entire body, which wriggled nonstop.

His altered appearance returned to normal.

Xiao Chen experienced excruciating pain like tens of thousands of knives cutting his body while countless hammers smashed down on him.

This was an unspeakable pain. Obtaining an acquired Divine Body meant going through rebirth; one needed to experience this metamorphosis.

Xiao Chen’s torment ended only when the blazing sun hung high in the sky.

He opened his eyes with some difficulty, and the piercing sunlight hurt his eyes.

However, his physical body acclimatized to the intense sunlight in the next moment and released a bright light.

Xiao Chen succeeded in cultivating the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art to Peak Consummation of the sixth layer!

He spat out a long breath of turbid air. His eyes turned extremely sharp. His entire body, from top to bottom, had undergone rebirth.

With a thought, Vital Qi condensed in his body. The originally invisible Vital Qi coalesced into faint azure lines as it swam through his body.

The moment Xiao Chen clenched his right hand, the countless faint azure lines of Vital Qi in his body immediately amassed into a dragon-shaped clump of Vital Qi in his fist light.

The force contained within his fist light felt extremely terrifying—two hundred Cauldron Force.

“This...this is my body?”

Xiao Chen was shocked. The change was monumental, far surpassing his imagination.

To think that you did not cultivate the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art that I gave you!

What nonsense Divine Dragon War Body is that? Stop embarrassing me.

Quickly go and cultivate the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art. Stop wasting time...

The past disdainful words of the Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor came to mind as Xiao Chen sighed.

The Blood-Soaked Dragon Emperor had not lied to him.

Back then, Xiao Chen did not focus on cultivating the Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art. It turned out to be a great treasure, and this was just the beginning.

Obtaining an acquired Divine Body meant that Xiao Chen’s physique had changed from the very foundation.

Previously, Xiao Chen only had astonishing comprehension ability. However, his physique and foundation were not considered top rank. Now that he gained an acquired Divine Body, his comprehension ability remained excellent, but his potential turned unimaginably scary.

“Gurgle! Gurgle!”

Suddenly, an unusual sound came from Xiao Chen’s stomach. Strangely, he felt hungry.

At his cultivation realm, he could abstain from mundane food. He only needed to satisfy the desire of the tongue.

Nevertheless, he felt hungry. This was really strange.

After tidying up and changing his appearance, Xiao Chen went to the second floor of the inn, found a table by the window, and sat down.

Then, he ordered many dishes in one go.

Once all the food was served, Xiao Chen started gorging himself. He felt very carefree. He had not eaten to his heart’s content like this in a long time.

“Customer, your appetite is enormous. Even those hulking cultivators can’t finish the entire table of food.”

The inn’s waiter walked over, smiling as he looked at Xiao Chen. It seemed like he was trying to get a tip.

Xiao Chen smiled without saying anything.

Xiao Chen just formed his Divine Body, so he needed replenishment. Naturally, others would not understand.

“From your looks, it seems like you have not eaten anything for several months.”

Seeing that Xiao Chen remained silent, that waiter did not stop smiling as he sat down across Xiao Chen and started eating and drinking.

Xiao Chen’s heart sank as he swept his Spiritual Sense through his surroundings.

After carefully sizing everyone up, he was shocked to discover that all the customers on the second floor had become experts with withdrawn killing Qi at some point in time.

It’s the Blood Dragon Guards!

As Xiao Chen struggled with his shock, the face of the waiter sitting across from him changed, turning into a familiar face after a while.

It was Vice Hall Master Li of the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s Law Enforcement Hall.

“Little Brother Xiao Chen, your disguising skills are rather inadequate.” Vice Hall Master Li looked at Xiao Chen with a wide grin, appearing somewhat cocky. Xiao Chen had not seen through his disguise.

Xiao Chen wiped the grease off his lips, then said softly, “I underestimated the Blood Dragon Guards’ ability. I thought that I managed to hide from the world, preventing everyone from discovering me along the way. It turns out that the Blood Dragon Guards have been watching my every move.”

If Xiao Chen did not realize that the Blood Dragon Guards knew everything he did, he would really be stupid.

Vice Hall Master Li smiled and said, “Don’t be humble. The Blood Dragon Guards still had to put in a lot of effort to search for you. If you were not in the Divine Dragon Empire, we probably could not find you.”

“How is the First Palace Master?”

Xiao Chen did not ask about anything else, just the thing that concerned him the most.

Vice Hall Master Li sighed softly and said, “You are still the Xiao Chen I know. You do not ask me why I am not capturing you first. The First Palace Master is fine. With his prestige in the Heavenly Dragon Palace, no one would dare to truly touch him. However, he still can’t escape punishment; he will just be locked up for a few decades. Compared to that, you should be more concerned about yourself.”

Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. “If you wanted to capture me, you would have done so long ago. You would not wait until now. If my guess is right, it is thanks to your efforts that the Golden Dragon Palace is always one step late?”

“Indeed, that’s right. The Blood Dragon Guards’ Shadow Dragon Sovereign personally ordered us to protect you as you leave. Don’t ask me why; I do not know.” Vice Hall Master Li shrugged, indicating his ignorance.

The Shadow Dragon Sovereign personally ordered for my protection as I leave the Divine Dragon Empire?

Xiao Chen felt shocked in his heart. This was truly unexpected since he had never met that person.

Furthermore, he could not anticipate the actions of an expert at the Shadow Dragon Sovereign’s level, someone who stood at the peak of the entire Central Great Realm.

“Go on, then. We took control of this city in advance. The people from the Golden Dragon Palace and the Dragon Protecting Corps will not be able to find you here,” Vice Hall Master Li said as he got to his feet.

Xiao Chen left behind a few Spirit Jades and stood up to leave. However, he could not resolve the doubts in his heart.

Vice Hall Master Li walked with Xiao Chen. As he promised, Xiao Chen successfully crossed the border without encountering any interference.

Xiao Chen turned his head back to look at Condensing Cloud City behind him. Then, he considered the vast, endless, ancient marsh before him.

This place was known as Cloud Water Marsh.

There was a spring every five kilometers and a river every fifty kilometers. When one looked into the distance, all one saw was a hazy mist. Who knew how far this ancient marsh stretched?

Once Xiao Chen entered this Cloud Water Marsh, he would no longer be in the Divine Dragon Empire; he would be completely safe.

However, Cloud Water Marsh was not a peaceful place. Ferocious beasts roamed it, and the environment was harsh.

As Xiao Chen gazed into the distance, a burst of killing Qi came at him. He immediately sensed danger.

It was Vice Hall Master Li. He actually launched an attack at Xiao Chen!

Xiao Chen had no time to think. In the time it took for a spark to fly, he threw a punch.

“Bang!”

Xiao Chen’s fist light landed on Vice Hall Master Li’s right shoulder, while Vice Hall Master Li’s palm strike landed on Xiao Chen’s left shoulder.

“Pu ci!”

Vice Hall Master Li vomited a mouthful of blood, in so much pain that he nearly fainted. The bones on his right shoulder shattered, forcing him to clench his teeth.

As for Xiao Chen, the other party’s attack knocked him away. When he landed, he was in Cloud Water Marsh.

Xiao Chen did not sustain any injury at all.

Xiao Chen suddenly startled awake. Vice Hall Master Li was putting on a show, his final act of sending off Xiao Chen.

Vice Hall Master Li wiped the blood off his lips as two Blood Dragon Guards supported him on both sides. He smiled bitterly. “This fellow is really ruthless in his attacks. He nearly struck me half-dead. This is good, as well. My injuries will serve as a good explanation. Let’s return.”

As Xiao Chen watched Vice Hall Master Li’s group leave, he gave silent thanks in his heart.

Now that Xiao Chen had left the Divine Dragon Empire, his emotions were complicated. Previously, he put in a lot of effort to enter it. Now that he left, he paid an even larger price than when he arrived.

Fate was truly unfathomable. The affairs of the world were genuinely unpredictable.

However, Xiao Chen would return sooner or later. He would openly return with honor.

Xiao Chen took one more look at the empire’s border, at the last city. Then, he turned and entered the hazy, white mist of Cloud Water Marsh.

However, was Xiao Chen truly safe after entering Cloud Water Marsh?
