In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 189 Making an Enemy of the Entire Holy Lake Region

Ge Yefeng left in a hurry, and the other powerful beings in the Spirit Realm were all surprised when they heard that Shen Xing was preparing to go to the capital immediately.

Because it was really quite sudden.

However, it seems perfectly normal when applied to Young Master Shen.

The other party probably didn't take this matter too seriously, but it was they who had to take it seriously.

"Hopefully, the capital is prepared," a powerful cultivator at the Spirit Realm muttered to himself, then narrowed his eyes, a look of worry on his face. "Especially our Emperor, he shouldn't be senile."

"So what if he's senile?" Ba Dao scoffed. "At worst, we'll just get a new emperor, and a few more Spirit Realm experts will die. Otherwise, would we drag the entire Sacred Lake Region down with us?"

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

The other Spirit Realm cultivator clearly still harbored some affection for the Lan Kingdom, and at this moment, he glared angrily at Ba Dao.

"Alright," Yan Dong finally spoke, "Let's hurry over there."

In his heart, he actually thought that Ba Dao was right.

If things really come to that, compared to risking the entire Sacred Lake Region being destroyed, it's obviously easier for people to accept replacing the emperor and having a few Spirit Realm experts die.

However, I hope it doesn't come to that.

Despite their heavy hearts, Yan Dong and his companions all smiled and acted gently when they arrived in front of Shen Xing, as if this trip to the capital was nothing more than a leisurely journey.

"Get on the flying car," Shen Xing said. "If we go fast, we should be there in half an hour at most."

Yes, the tank can easily reach ten times the speed of sound, covering thousands of miles in an hour.

Upon hearing this speed, the group, though already aware of it, were still somewhat astonished.

If it were them, it would take at least a day and a night to fly.

But this was not the time to marvel at such things; the group immediately boarded the chariot.

They were all powerful beings at the Spirit Realm. Although they were quite curious about the chariot, they were still able to control it.

No one was looking around.

Moreover, the Sacred Lake Region is not without flying golems, they just aren't this powerful.

"The fourth-grade pills you sent last time were quite good." Shen Xing looked at the eight native spirit realm cultivators in front of him and asked, "It also takes me three days to refine one, but the quantity is too small. How can we get more?"

"One can be refined in just three days!?"

Everyone took a deep breath.

Even if one had anticipated it, these seven or eight days of seclusion must have been spent refining elixirs.

But three days?

Even if they were to consume it, it would take them one to two years to refine it!

Is the opponent really only at the Innate Realm? Even if their strength is comparable to the Third Realm, this refining speed is simply too terrifying!

"How many coins does Young Master Shen need?" Ge Yefeng, despite his age, couldn't help but swallow hard.

"If I had twenty, I might be able to break through to the third realm within three months," Shen Xing said calmly.

"—!" This time, everyone really couldn't control their expressions.

Break through to the third realm within three months?

This guy in front of me isn't even sixteen yet!

He has only been practicing martial arts for a few months!

If that were really the case, wouldn't one be able to leap directly to the level of a grandmaster after just one year of cultivation?

A Grandmaster of the Third Realm is a powerful figure throughout the entire Sacred Lake Region, and if he takes over some weaker territories, he will even become a hegemon.

This unprecedented speed of cultivation cannot even be described as "terrifying"; it is simply like a dream!

How long will it take to reach the Fourth Realm? One year, or two years? And the Fifth Realm, the Mountains and Seas?

Even if it takes more than ten years, it will be like the blink of an eye for them, and they may not even be able to improve their strength by a small margin. But the other party may even have the hope of reaching the Mountain and Sea realm, which is a level that they may never be able to reach in their lifetime!

"No wonder," Yan Dongdu couldn't help but mutter to himself.

No wonder he can only compare himself to his peers. If everyone had this terrifying speed, then even if he was only half a year older, he might have already become a whole realm stronger!

The prodigies of these families have completely surpassed their understanding of martial arts cultivation!

"Twenty of them, is that possible?" Shen Xing ignored their reactions and looked at Ge Yefeng, asking again.

That's right, what he said about three months is true. Although refining this kind of pill requires him to fully circulate his cultivation technique and cannot cultivate other martial arts realms, it can indeed compress his cultivation time in the Innate Realm to a terrifying degree.

Three months, even including the time needed to familiarize oneself with the force and hone one's Yuan energy.

To avoid instability in strength.

Upon reaching this conclusion, Shen Xing himself was also somewhat surprised.

Because the shortest time it took the previous batch of freshmen to break through to the third realm was thirteen months!

This is also the shortest recorded time in the entire Federation of Humanity.

Based on past trends, this record is being achieved earlier each year.

However, it will only be a few days in advance at most, and at most ten days in advance.

But if he really had enough Grade 4 Dragon-type Treasure Pills, he could get it three months ahead of schedule!

Such a comparison is enough to illustrate the power of the top-grade Earth-level Ten Thousand Dragons Technique and the fourth-grade pills.

Faced with Shen Xing's shock, Ge Yefeng couldn't help but shudder. He temporarily put aside his amazement at the efficiency and began to think of a solution.

"Young Master Shen, there are definitely no twenty Crimson Dragon Soul Tempering Pills to be found in the entire Sacred Lake Region right now." Ge Yefeng racked his brains, but in the end, he could only show a bitter expression. "Let alone twenty, even if we searched the entire region, we could only find four or five more at most. Therefore, if Young Master Shen has a need, we can only refine them again. As for the Crimson Dragon Vermilion Fruit, it is only available in Dragon Valley now. Other materials are also extremely rare. One hundred and fifty years ago, it took the Artifact and Pill Pavilion twenty years to gather all the materials. If we want to gather them all in a short period of time, it would be impossible unless we searched the entire stockpiles of the three great dynasties and even many other forces."

The meaning behind these words is quite clear.

It's not impossible, but it really requires the combined power of the entire region!

Upon hearing this, even Shen Xing couldn't help but frown.

Although he had considered that fourth-grade pills were not easy to obtain, let alone middle-grade fourth-grade pills, the difficulty still exceeded his expectations.

However, if they could get their hands on the cannons, plus the people in front of them...

Shen Xing kept thinking.

These eight powerful cultivators at the Spirit Realm, seeing the furrowed brows of Young Master Shen, were all somewhat apprehensive.

They even regretted giving such a gift.

If this young master Shen is really determined to do this, then he might end up making an enemy of the entire Sacred Lake Region!

Unless a follower from the Classic of Mountains and Seas actually appears, it's simply impossible!

This is because it requires not only each family to bring out their most precious and rare treasures, but also to concentrate manpower to conquer Dragon Valley!

"A mere fourth-grade pill, and it's this troublesome?" Shen Xing's expression seemed somewhat serious, and his gaze gradually sharpened. "It seems I overestimated your region. But do you know that I received another message from the clan a couple of days ago? The clan's prodigy, currently ranked first among his peers, is almost at the mid-stage of the Innate Realm!"

With a wave of his hand, an image projection appeared directly.

The scene depicts a young boy with terrifying strength and a terrifyingly powerful appearance, radiating the power of lightning, sparring with another young boy who also looks young on the arena.

The two immediately became fierce in their battle, displaying terrifying strength that moved many powerful figures in the Spirit Realm!

Especially that thunder boy.

It was as if it were the embodiment of thunder, with every move accompanied by a tremendous roar, and clearly visible images bursting forth from the screen!

They had never seen such a powerful innate being!

It even felt like throwing a grandmaster into this kind of battle would only result in an easy slaughter.

What surprised them even more was that the two fought without any mercy and with extraordinary ferocity!

Until a certain moment, another prodigy youth had his arm severed by the thunderous youth with a single strike, causing even several powerful figures in the Spirit Realm to gasp in shock!

A severed arm!

This was a devastating blow to a prodigy.

But even so, the battle is not over!

The scene only ended when the one-armed man was struck again, coughing up blood and flying backward, seemingly with severe internal injuries.

Ge Yefeng was heartbroken at the sight, his eyes filled with fear.

"Young Master Shen, this is just a friendly sparring match, how could you resort to such a cruel method?"

This is a top-tier genius, a genius they can't even imagine!

Did they really fall in an internal competition like this?

"Huh?" Shen Xing was taken aback, then suddenly realized, "This is nothing, just a severed arm. Our clan's techniques can regenerate bones and restore flesh to the dead. Even if someone is beheaded, they can be brought back to life in a short time without leaving any permanent damage."

"."

Everyone was stunned.

"I was naive," Ge Yefeng muttered to himself.

Even though he had exaggerated the status of Young Master Shen's family to an extreme degree, each time he managed to create even more shock.

Besides, the strength of these two is also terrifying beyond imagination!

More importantly, both of them looked very young, and judging by their age, they were clearly only fifteen or sixteen years old!

There is actually more than one prodigy like Young Master Shen!

How can those who are older, or even those who have truly matured, become strong?

Everyone was moved.

In comparison, especially for Ba Dao and others, nothing demonstrates power better than witnessing it firsthand.

"You all saw it too." Shen Xing's expression was quite grave. His gaze slowly swept over everyone. "That was footage of the first and second place players sparring ten days ago. To be honest, I have absolute confidence in winning against the second-place player, but it's different against the first. Therefore—whether it's resources or divine will, I must obtain something better and stronger!"

That's right. The reason Shen Xing showed this video was not only to further highlight the power of his family, but also to demonstrate his determination to acquire resources!

He originally planned to release the footage when he arrived in the capital of Lan Kingdom.

But now, it's being presented first.

At the very least, we must not let these people in front of us waver!
