Death Grip
It should be noted that although Xing Chen is not a kind person, he wouldn't have such a strong Demonic Aura surging out with just a slight movement.
Currently, Xing Chen is undoubtedly a powerful practitioner of demonic arts, and the magic he practices is quite formidable. After all, being able to step into the void and traverse the air in the Yang Spirit Realm is definitely not something an ordinary Cultivation Method or Martial Arts can achieve.
"Stop overthinking. I haven't obtained any Inheritance. Otherwise, how could my cultivation still be at this level?" Xing Chen said.
"Then why did you suddenly switch to practicing demonic arts? And it's such an impressive form of magic?" Meng Xiner blinked in confusion and asked Xing Chen.
"Because only by practicing demonic arts can I fully unleash my power," Xing Chen replied. "What about you? According to logic, after obtaining the Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance, your cultivation should have progressed rapidly. Why are you still at the Yang Po First Level?"
Xing Chen looked at Meng Xiner, puzzled by her current level. Normally, once someone obtains the Inheritance of a powerful figure, their strength would surely skyrocket. Just like Yun Qing, who originally had a slow cultivation speed but experienced a sudden surge in power after receiving the Inheritance from the Thunder True Monarch. He not only established the Azure Cloud Gang, but also developed it into the largest gang in the Sun Kingdom within just a few years, placing himself among the top three powerful figures in the kingdom.
"It's all your fault," Meng Xiner shot a glare at Xing Chen, huffing as she said, "If you hadn't taken things from me at the site of the Thunderfire Deity's Legacy, I would have already reached the level of Yang Spirit Peak, or even become a strong practitioner at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm."
"What does that have to do with me? Although I took some items from the site of the Thunderfire Deity's Legacy, your strength shouldn't be affected by that, right?" Xing Chen was slightly taken aback. Even though he had taken many pills and a Divine Weapon from the site, including items like the Thunderfire Pearl and the Thunderfire Divine Ring, which symbolize the identity of the Thunderfire Deity, it shouldn't have impacted Meng Xiner's ability to improve her strength.
"How could it not be related to you? Hmph, the power of the Thunderfire Deity is sealed within this Thunderfire Pearl. Since you took it from me, I couldn't access that power, so my progress has naturally slowed down," Meng Xiner huffed, casting a resentful glance at Xing Chen.
"Alright, even if it's my fault, can't I just return the Thunderfire Pearl to you now?" sighed Xing Chen.
"By the way, how did you end up in this sea area? Were you also transported here by the Teleportation Array of the Thunderfire Deity?" Meng Xiner dodged past him to avoid taking back the Thunderfire Pearl, glancing at him as she asked.
"I didn't come to the sea area out of necessity. The Eastern Region has already fallen, completely under the control of the Demon Sect. It was the Teleportation Array left by my Master, the Homomorphic Sword Elder, that brought me here," Xing Chen sighed again, simultaneously informing Meng Xiner about what had happened in the Eastern Region.
"So you came to the sea area to seek refuge, yet you still want to target the Dragon Ball? However, what surprises me is how quickly the Eastern Region has declined, being occupied by a Sect from the Central Domain," the voice of the Hate Emperor echoed again in Xing Chen's mind.
"Did you peek into my thoughts again?" Xing Chen said angrily. The Hate Emperor was truly unpredictable, and most importantly, as long as her soul wavered slightly, he could know what she was thinking.
"I merely glanced at it; do you think I really care about your thoughts?" The Hate Emperor's voice carried a hint of disdain.
"The Eastern Region has really fallen..." Meng Xiner's delicate face also showed a trace of disbelief.
Although the strength of the Eastern Region had already dropped to an extreme low, she never expected it to fall so quickly.
"So you came to the sea area to increase your strength and then go save the Eastern Region, driving out the people from the Demon Sect?" Meng Xiner asked.
"Yes, that's my purpose for coming to the sea area this time. However, I didn't expect to encounter you here," Xing Chen nodded and then looked at Meng Xiner.
"That's because we have a special connection; otherwise, with such a vast sea area, how could we coincidentally meet like this? Plus, you saved me," Meng Xiner said with a playful smile, winking at Xing Chen.
"You should quickly absorb the power of the Thunderfire Pearl. Once your strength increases, we'll be much safer here; otherwise, there could be life-threatening dangers at any moment. Even with my current strength, I can't roam freely in Snow Wind Island," Xing Chen rolled her eyes and said.
"Hehe, with you protecting me, I feel very secure. Whether I absorb the power from the Thunderfire Pearl or not doesn't matter," Meng Xiner giggled.
"At a time like this, don't joke around. Quickly absorb the Inheritance power from the Thunderfire Pearl so that you can have more self-defense capability. Otherwise, if I'm entangled by some Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm experts and can't take care of you, you'll be in danger," Xing Chen said.
"Alright, I understand. I'm going to absorb the power of Inheritance. Once I fully absorb the power from the Thunderfire Pearl, my strength will definitely surpass yours." Meng Xiner walked into the Mountain Valley, then took out an Earth Grade Top-Tier Divine Weapon. With a few swift strikes against the rock wall, he opened up a cave, then sat cross-legged. The Thunderfire Pearl floated above his head, emitting waves of purple-red light that enveloped Meng Xiner.
"Child, be careful. A strong individual at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm is heading this way. This person is from the Liu Family." At that moment, the voice of Hate Emperor suddenly resonated in Xing Chen's mind.
"Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm?" Xing Chen's gaze flickered slightly, and then a cold smile appeared on his face. At this moment, he no longer feared the strong individuals at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm. Even though he couldn't truly crush them with his current strength, he was confident that he could face them head-on.
"I just want to see the gap between myself and the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm. Since someone is delivering themselves to me, I might as well give it a try." There was no trace of worry on Xing Chen's face; his eyes were filled with endless sharpness and cold light.
Then he took a step forward, and a Demonic Aura surged beneath his feet, allowing him to float in mid-air again. As he walked forward step by step, his momentum continuously soared.
