The two Great Demon Kings stared at Pei Xuanjing, ready to attack at any moment.
At this moment, Pei Xuanjing did not have any attention to spare for the outside world. As soon as he entered the Blood River and swallowed the Blood Pill, he immediately ran the Mysterious Skill and entered a profound state.
After the Blood Pill entered his mouth, it immediately turned into a thick force, circulating continuously in his meridians, organs, and flesh. This force raged within his body, causing considerable damage to the meridians and organs that Pei Xuanjing had refined. His robust body even oozed fresh blood, and in a blink of an eye, Pei Xuanjing was practically turned into a blood man.
The force passed through, riddling with holes, as if a steel knife cut through his body. Even with Pei Xuanjing’s tenacious will, he felt great pain.
But fortunately, Pei Xuanjing, who had refined his Yin Spirit, was able to endure this pain without falling unconscious, keeping himself awake.
He controlled the energy within his body, operated the Mysterious Skill, and had it continuously brushing over his acupoints.
Refining acupoints was nothing unfamiliar to Pei Xuanjing at this moment. He opened an acupoint in an instant, but the intense force that was rolling within him was not affected in the least.
This is the sixteenth acupoint that Pei Xuanjing has refined. According to his estimation, to step into the Spirit Realm Third Level, or to be a late-stage warrior of this world, at least twenty-four acupoints need to be refined. To step into the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm, or the king and marquis level, at least thirty-six acupoints need to be refined.
As for the perfect state of the Nine Realms of Spirit, it should be a complete refinement of the 365 large acupoints within his own body.
Pei Xuanjing accelerated his speed, constantly controlling the energy within his body to refine the acupoints rapidly.
Bang!
A terrifying aura burst out from the Boundary City, directly descending on the Demon Domain, causing countless demonic beasts to lay low. It was indeed Xuan King’s true form.
At this moment, Pei Xuanjing’s aura while refining the Jiaolong Blood Pill, was wide open for all to see, and no one could conceal it, so Xuan King headed in that direction without hesitation.
After he moved out, the aura of several other kings and marquises also appeared, and they, too, headed in the same direction.
Similarly, within the Demon Domain, more Demon Kings also arrived continuously.
However, whether the human race’s kings and marquises, or the Demon Kings of the Demon Domain, all they did was confront each other and did not immediately start fighting.
Pei Xuanjing sat cross-legged on top of the Blood River, with a red aura circulating around him. Endless Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, as well as Blood Qi, poured into his body. He was like a bottomless black hole, absorbing all this boundless energy.
The Demon Kings and the human kings and marquises stared at each other, standing in mid-air, their eyes complex as they watched Pei Xuanjing, who was meditating within the Blood River.
“Heh heh, never thought he would have such a day.” Someone among the Demon Kings in the Demon Domain laughed without a care.
This Xuan King had a domineering personality and was well-known even among the Demon Race. Some Demon Kings were pretty pleased that they could now see him make a fool of himself.
Xuan King had a cold expression, his face dark.
He knew that he had lost face big time this round. The ones laughing at him were probably not just from the Demon Race, but also the kings and marquises from the human race who didn’t get along with him.
However, the human race’s kings and marquises were just laughing to themselves. After all, they were currently confronting the Demon Race and couldn’t let the demons ridicule them openly.
“The fact that he dared to refine the Jiaolong Blood Pill is acceptable. But his daughter had used the blood sacrifice of human martial artists. She must be punished. This cannot continue. If it is not punished, it will be hard to convince the crowd.” One human king thought to himself.
The human martial artists who had escaped naturally spread the news, causing a great uproar and shock among countless people.
Only to think that even within the Demon Domain, people of the human race would fight each other because of their interests, but it was done privately. No one dared to do it so openly.
If the Princess had indeed done that, there would be nothing they could do without concrete evidence. But now there were witnesses, and the Town Guard Mansion had to do something or else they would not be able to convince the crowd.
“However, now we’ve got to see if this lucky lad can pull through!” A king from the human race thought to himself.
Bang!
A massive aura burst from Pei Xuanjing, and although the terrifying power couldn’t cause any harm to these Demon Kings and human race’s kings and marquises, everyone looked shocked.
“Did he succeed?”
“He actually managed to refine the Jiaolong Blood Pill.”
Many of the human kings had a smile at the corners of their mouths.
In the confrontation between the humans and the demons, ultimately, they had to rely on top-tier combat powers to make decisions. In this era when the emperor did not exist, the kings and marquises were the strongest.
If Pei Xuanjing had broken through, that meant the human race had one more top-tier combatant.
However, not everyone was happy about this. Xuan King watched Pei Xuanjing coldly, with thick killing intent in his gloomy eyes.
“Damn, he actually succeeded.” Xuan King did not expect that his plan would allow Pei Xuanjing to snatch the opportunity, and his anger was sky-high. He wished he could kill Pei Xuanjing on the spot.
But considering the many human kings and marquises around him, he had to suppress his impulse for now.
After all, it was no longer the same as before. If the other party was a warrior, he could suppress him with power, but now that the other party had advanced to the rank of king or marquis, he could no longer act in that way.
But while he had reservations, the Demon Race didn’t need to have any.
“A mere Demon General could withstand the power of the Jiaolong Blood Pill. This is truly unprecedented.”
“Having devoured the power of the Jiaolong Blood Pill, this boy must not be allowed to live.”
“That’s right. If we let him grow, he will definitely become a supreme king.”
The Demon Kings of the Demon Race were all talking, their eyes filled with killing intent as they looked at Pei Xuanjing.
Pei Xuanjing opened his eyes, withdrawing the divine light from his eyes, feeling the power within his body at the moment, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This Jiaolong Blood Pill was indeed a divine pill, allowing him to consecutively open and refine more than thirty acupoints. He had now refined forty-eight acupoints, stepping into the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Realm, which was the intermediate stage of King Marquis in this world.
He suddenly lifted his head, looking around at these people, coldly staring at them.
“I am Lan Yunhai, dare I ask for your honourable name, brother.” A king from the human race stepped forward and initiated the conversation.
Pei Xuanjing raised his eyebrows. He had heard of this Marquis’s name. This person was the king who guarded the Boundary City.
“So it’s Blue King, I am Lei Zhen.” Pei Xuanjing answered, giving the name of this body.
“So it’s Brother Lei. Today you have stepped into the realm of kings and marquises, giving us humans one more king and marquis. It is indeed a day of great jubilation.” Blue King said.
“Hm?” Pei Xuanjing raised an eyebrow in suspicion.
He had just snatched Xuan King’s opportunity, and the other party just let it slide like that?
Looking at the other party’s irritated expression, it certainly didn’t look like he planned to make peace with him.
