School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 1875 - 1961: Desolate Divine Dragon Armor (Part 1)

A wave of embarrassment washed over Chen Nan as the Nine Nether Evil Emperor spoke. A significant portion of his six Divine Fire Avatars, specifically the most formidable Demon Venerable Avatar, had originally been forged with the invaluable assistance of the Nine Nether Evil Emperor.

This immense debt of gratitude was still outstanding, and now, with the Nine Nether Evil Emperor offering aid in fusing his battle armor, even Chen Nan, despite his resilience, felt a profound sense of unease.

"Senior Nine Nether's cultivation continues to ascend, potentially reaching the Supreme Eighth Layer. The Immortal Spirit Qi he possesses is the very essence of the Hidden Dragon Body, and it would be a shame to squander it on me."

After careful consideration, Chen Nan decided to politely decline the offer.

His intention was to attempt the refinement of the Ancient Shield and Heavenly Stone Battle Armor independently.

Leveraging his deep understanding of these two potent artifacts, combined with his current cultivation prowess and the supplemental power of Chaotic Power, he believed there was a viable path to a successful fusion. Moreover, given the inherent defensive attributes of the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor, even a failed fusion would not compromise its protective capabilities.

While judicious use of external aid was acceptable, becoming overly reliant on it throughout one's cultivation journey could, in the long run, hinder advancement, even for someone possessing the formidable Chaos Sacred Body.

Noticing Chen Nan's refusal, the Dragon Emperor and Nine Nether exchanged knowing smiles.

These two titans, once locked in mortal combat, now shared a moment of levity, letting bygones be bygones.

"Indeed, with your Chaos Sacred Body and the omnipresent Chaotic Power as your foundation, you possess the capability to attempt the refinement of the Ancient Shield and the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor. However, the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor remains an external artifact, and its successful integration with the Ancient Shield is ultimately a matter of destiny."

"Take your time; there's no need for haste. Both the Dragon Emperor and I will stand guard. Our next destination is the Outer Domain Battlefield anyway, so a slight delay is inconsequential. Did not the Demon Path Supreme also emerge from the secret realm?"

The Nine Nether Evil Emperor cast a glance towards the distant Death Star Domain Secret Realm as he spoke.

Chen Nan was poised to enter a state of meditation within the void, preparing to commence the refinement of the Ancient Shield and Heavenly Stone Battle Armor, intending to simultaneously fuse the Dragon Emperor True Body Essence. However, upon hearing the mention of the Outer Domain Battlefield, vivid images of several figures flashed through his mind.

Jiang Xiaomi and Eastern Yun Fei, due to their comparatively lower cultivation levels, had not accompanied them on this journey. He felt a pang of uncertainty about when their paths might cross again during this venture into the outer domains.

Settling into a cross-legged position in the void, Chen Nan activated his Fire Element Heavenly Skill. Trails of Purple Divine Fire began to manifest around his body as he embarked on the process of refining the two treasured artifacts.

From a distance, the Dragon Emperor and Nine Nether moved in unison. The Outer Heaven Demon Souls, which had been held in check by Demon God Mountain, were met with their swift and decisive attacks, resulting in their immediate obliteration.

Faint echoes of residual souls could be heard, emitting venomous curses and railing against the Nine Nether Evil Emperor for his perceived betrayal, wishing him dire misfortune.

The Nine Nether Evil Emperor let out a hearty laugh, retorting, "Had you not acted at my behest within the Ancient God Demon Battlefield, I could have easily subdued all of you. To speak of honor and promises with invaders like yourselves is a laughable absurdity!"

Wielding chains forged from a Supreme Sacred Weapon, he unleashed a relentless assault, reducing the remnants of those souls to mere ashes in an instant.

In the following moments, he and the Dragon Emperor assumed commanding positions in the void. Each projected forty-nine intricate runes, shimmering with an almost sentient glow. These runes, like guided projectiles, rapidly converged towards the spatial coordinates of the Ancient God Demon Battlefield, streaking through the void like bolts of pure light.

"Nine Nether, your rate of progress is nothing short of astonishing. It is truly fortunate that the Hidden Dragon Body manifested within you. During the Heavenly People Clan's occupation of Panlong Star, had they dared to breach Purple Cloud Peak, the repercussions would have been unthinkable."

The Dragon Emperor, with his profound cultivation, could acutely grasp the formidable and terrifying nature of the Nine Nether Evil Emperor.

Just as the Dragon Emperor concluded his statement, a brilliant cascade of rune light erupted from the distant void. Countless piercing shrieks gradually diminished, and finally, silence descended.

Immersed in the searing Purple Divine Fire, Chen Nan's Star Technique, the Third Move: Power of Crossing, coursed through his thirty-six Dead Acupoints. The potent Purple Divine Fire enveloping his form possessed a destructive energy capable of incinerating all it touched.

Nevertheless, he keenly perceived that this formidable power was still insufficient for his task.

The Ancient Shield, having undergone countless enhancements, was now vastly superior to its original state. Melting the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor alone presented a significant challenge, and the prospect of refining and subsequently fusing it with the Ancient Shield appeared exceedingly difficult.

Sweat beaded and continuously cascaded from Chen Nan's body, only to vanish instantly into the Purple Divine Fire.

"I never imagined the Star Technique, which could pierce thirty-six Dead Acupoints, would overwhelm my physical body. It seems I require even more Star Power to absorb."

With a mere thought, the Yin Yang Star Plate ascended into the void. Countless threads of starlight were drawn from the surrounding dozens of planets, converging and then showering down upon Chen Nan.

This Innate Spiritual Treasure, once the most cherished artifact of the Yin Yang Saintess, now acted as a catalyst for Chen Nan's Star Technique practice. Like adding wings to a tiger, it proved incredibly valuable, despite his prior unfamiliarity with its use.

"Chen Nan, infusing Yin Yang Qi into the Yin Yang Star Plate will unlock its true potential. Allow me to assist you," Ji Yueshen chimed, her laughter echoing. The Chaos Sky Silk she wielded shot forth, settling upon the Yin Yang Star Plate and channeling an endless stream of Yin Yang Power.

In the very next moment, Chen Nan observed the Ancient Shield commencing its refinement process, while cracks began to surface on the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor, signaling its imminent refinement as well.

His heart swelled with elation, and his Divine Power surged instantly to its zenith.

An hour elapsed!

Two hours passed!

...

Days blurred as Chen Nan remained in a state of quiet contemplation within the void. Whenever his Divine Power faltered, he promptly consumed Immortal Pills. While the Five Infant Immortal Pill was unavailable, he possessed abundant supplies of both Four Infant and Three Infant Immortal Pills.

Yet, the sheer expenditure required to achieve the fusion of the battle armor was so immense that perhaps only he, within the entirety of the Four Extremes World, possessed such financial wherewithal.

As Chen Nan ingested a Four Infant Immortal Pill, Yunhua Heavenly Monarch, observing from a distance, nearly protruded his eight-character eyebrows. His topknot seemed poised to pierce the very heavens in sheer indignation, lamenting, "What a colossal waste of precious treasures..."

On the fourth day, the Ancient Shield and the Heavenly Stone Battle Armor finally began their fusion. Chen Nan seized this critical juncture to embed the Dragon Emperor True Body Essence into them.

The instant the golden diminutive dragon, forged from the Dragon Emperor True Body Essence, was integrated into the two merging treasures, Chen Nan was subjected to an overwhelming surge of formidable power, unlike anything he had experienced before.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, having suffered grievous internal injuries.

"Chen Nan, my relic contains thirty percent of my peak might. Should you succeed in refining this power entirely, you would instantaneously ascend to the Supreme Realm. However... that is an unattainable feat, as this power vastly exceeds your capacity to endure, leading to but one inevitable conclusion—utter annihilation!"

The Dragon Emperor articulated, his demeanor stern.

"Ah, so that is the situation!" Chen Nan realized immediately.

"Attempt to channel this power through the Source Power within your meridians, emanating from the Origin Heavenly Emperor, and then integrate it into the newly forming battle armor. Subsequently, you can harness the strengths of your adversaries to temper this power, thereby refining it effortlessly to elevate your cultivation realm."

Having imparted his counsel, the Dragon Emperor fell silent.

Chen Nan promptly adhered to his advice, drawing upon the Source Power within his meridians. To his astonishment, the previously volatile Dragon Emperor Power, upon encountering this residual Source Power of the Origin Heavenly Emperor, instantly became quiescent.

He urgently funneled this refined power into the merging battle armor, preparing to execute the final sequence.

"Blast it, the continuous operation of the Fire Element Heavenly Skill has destabilized my Chaotic Power..." Chen Nan experienced a physical constriction, a premonitory sense of dread suddenly engulfing him.

The inherent nature of the Fire Element Heavenly Skill inflicted substantial bodily harm. He had maintained its continuous operation for several days and nights, and despite not having transformed into the Six Great Avatars, the mobilization of this Divine Fire Power proved to be a considerable challenge.
