<h4>Chapter 692: Atmosphere</h4>
The White Bone Devil Emperor didn’t believe that the Flying Corpse Emperor wasn’t interested in a body refinement emperor.
As long as the Flying Corpse Emperor was interested, it would be time for Li Fuchen to die.
“White Bone Devil Emperor, why are you at my Flying Corpse Mountain?” It was a voice that sounded frictional like two pieces of metal grinding against each other.
The White Bone Devil Emperor’s heart was beating slightly faster as he said, “Flying Corpse Emperor, I have a great opportunity to give you.”
“Opportunity! What opportunity?! Do I need you to give me opportunities?! If you are here just to bootlick me, don’t me me for being ruthless.” The Flying Corpse Emperor spoke with an unfriendly tone.
The White Bone Devil Emperor said, “I wonder if you are interested in a body refinement emperor?”
“Hmph, which body refinement emperor doesn’t have a powerful backer in the Heaven Pir Continent. If they didn’t have any backer, I would have sucked their blood dry.” The Flying Corpse Emperor’s voice was getting increasingly fearsome and seemingly impatient.
The White Bone Devil Emperor continued, “This body refinement emperor doesn’t have any backer, as he isn’t from the Heaven Pir Continent.”
“What?” There was a sh of stench, as an imposing figure with dark green color appeared in front of the White Bone Devil Emperor.
“If you deceive me, I will kill you.” The Flying Corpse Emperor looked at the White Bone Devil Emperor intently.
The White Bone Devil Emperor cupped his fist and replied, “I wouldn’t dare to deceive you.”
“Alright, bring me there. Once the deed is done, I will owe you a favor.” The Flying Corpse Emperor couldn’t wait.
If he absorbed the blood of a body refinement emperor, he might be able to be a great emperor. By then, no one in the entire Heaven Pir Continent would be able to deal with him.
The White Bone Devil Emperor responded, “Just a favor? I am taking too much of a loss like that”
The White Bone Devil Emperor might have fulfilled his wish to eliminate Li Fuchen, but he wouldn’t give the Flying Corpse Emperor a benefit for nothing.
“Then what do you want?”
“500,000 high-grade spirit stones and you have to pay 200,000 first.”
“You are insane, do you want me to give you my entire wealth?”
The White Bone Devil Emperor said indifferently, “Is 500,000 high-grade spirit stones a lot? A body refinement emperor might be able to let you be a great emperor. By then, millions of high-grade spirit stones would mean nothing to you.”
After a long consideration, the Flying Corpse Emperor nodded. “500,000 high-grade spirit stones it is.”
Aspared to a body refinement emperor, 500,000 high-grade spirit stones was nothing indeed. Let alone 500,000 high-grade spirit stones, even if it was 5 million high-grade spirit stones, he would do his best to gather enough.
...
Without putting all hopes on the purchase of herbs, Li Fuchen was focusing most of his attention on the Hand of God.
The Hand of God had a total of seven stages.
First stage, Hand of Blood. Second stage, Hand of Force.
The first two stages were equivalent to heaven ss mid-tier body refinement arts.
Third stage, Hand of Star. Fourth stage, Hand of Moon. Fifth stage, Hand of Sun
These three stages were equivalent to heaven ss high-tier body refinement arts.
Sixth stage, Hand of Cmity was equivalent to heaven ss peak-tier body refinement arts.
Seventh stage, Hand of God was already beyond heaven ss martial arts and reached a whole new ss.
Currently, Li Fuchen was at the peak state of Hand of Force and was just one step away from reaching the Hand of Star.
Once Li Fuchen achieved the Hand of Star, his strength wouldn’t just be increased by ten times, it would be at least dozens of times.
After all, the Hand of God was a body refinement methodology and it consisted of body refinement technique and body refinement arts.
It was unfortunate that the Hand of Star was much harder than Li Fuchen imagined.
He had a feeling he was stillcking something.
Perhaps, it was because he couldn’t observe the revolution of stars from a close proximity and wasn’t able to understand and feel the massive prowess from the stars.
It was the same as toprehend the sword daow, but if you didn’t even touch a sword or know what a sword was, how would you be able toprehend the sword daow? It was useless even if you had the best perception.
“In order to achieve Hand of Star, I need a fated opportunity.”
Li Fuchen looked up to the sky and suddenly rushed up into the sky.
The sky was very high and much higher than Li Fuchen’s imagination.
100 thousand meters, 500 thousand meters, 1 million meters.
Strong winds howled and blew through like des.
In this high altitude region, regr monarchs wouldn’t be able to survive.
Because the wind here was concentrated wind dao energy and there was some metal thread-like radiance. If Li Fuchen didn’t guess it wrongly, the concentration of wind dao energy essence wasn’t inferior to Law Phase Realm emperor’s qi.
The wind dao energy in the high altitudes might be extremely concentrated, but it was too violent. As such, it wasn’t suitable for martial artists to absorb and refine.
Two million meters, five million meters.
Tss Tss Tss Tss Tss Tss...
It felt as though countless void des were slicking over and it was causing Li Fuchen’s Sky Ring Sword Armor to vibrate violently.
50% of the wind here was wind dao energy essence and Li Fuchen felt rather strenuous here.
Eight millions meters, 10 million meters...
Pfff!
On the Sky Ring Sword Armor, there was a crack and a strand of the wind dao energy essence turned into a thin de and sliced on Li Fuchen.
It was fortunate that Li Fuchen was covered with an invisibleyer of membrane. It was the formation of body refinementw and vitality field. The defensive power of the membrane was even higher than the Sky Ring Sword Armor, therefore, Li Fuchen wasn’t injured.
“This ce is entirely filled with wind dao energy essence. It is truly terrifying.”
Li Fuchen continued to ascend.
One might be able to see the stars from under the night sky, but that was just the projection of the stars. It was impossible to see any detail and could only see a spot of light. As such, it was useless when cultivating the Hand of Star.
15 million miles, 20 million miles...
Creak Creak...
Li Fuchen’s Sky Ring Sword Armor was already disintegrated and only thew field was still supporting Li Fuchen.
But now, even thew field was already unable to endure and was constantly distorting.
Bang!
A resplendent thunderbolt snake suddenly slithered over and smashed onto Li Fuchen’sw field.
Pfff!
Thew field was instantly ripped apart, and Li Fuchen descended rapidly due to the shock.
ording to what Li Fuchen knew, the atmosphere was made of fouryers. The firstyer was the windyer, the secondyer was the thunderboltyer, the thirdyer was the heatyer, and the fourthyer was the vaporizeyer.
The first windyer had the biggest altitude range.
The second thunderboltyer contained countless types of thunderbolts. Even the weakest thunderbolt would be able to kill a regr Law Phase Realm emperor. The strongest thunderbolt was able to kill a great emperor.
Of course, such thunderbolts were very rare.
The thunderbolt that Li Fuchen encountered was an extremely powerful thunderbolt called the Mystic Yin Heaven Thunder.
The Mystic Yin Heaven Thunder’s power was simr to the Mystic Yang Heaven Thunder.
Li Fuchen’s Mystic Yang Heaven Thunder incantation was able to summon the Mystic Yang Heaven Thunder.
But the summoned Mystic Yang Heaven Thunder would be weakened as it descended through theyers of atmosphere. Therefore, the power was less than a hundredth and was iparable to the Mystic Yin Heaven Thunder and Mystic Yang Heaven Thunder in the thunderboltyer.
As for the third heatyer, it was extremely horrific and even a great emperor would perish once they entered.
Thisyer gathered all nes of heat from the stars and also the cosmic rays.
In order to reach thisyer, one would need to be at least a saint, otherwise, it would be certain death.
It was fortunate that Li Fuchen didn’t have to reach the heatyer and only had to reach the thunderboltyer.
ording to ancient records, one would be able to observe the stars clearly from the thunderboltyer. There were some stars that were closer and one could even see the surface features.
“With my current strength, I am still unable to reach the thunderboltyer. It is a pity.”
Earlier on, Li Fuchen’s eyes saw the outline of an entire star, but the time was too short and he didn’t have time toprehend anything.
