How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 438 - 0433: Successful Capture

"Impossible..."

Landing Clan Leader couldn’t accept this reality.

The Fire Horned Deer was at the Guiyuan Realm, and its self-destruction could inflict injuries even on cultivators at the Early Guiyuan Realm Peak. In addition to his "Blast Pill," the explosion’s power was greatly enhanced, even harboring the potential to kill someone at the Peak of Early-stage Innate.

However, in reality, Chen Yu had sensed the Fire Horned Deer’s self-destruction and had retreated in advance, distancing himself from the center of the explosion.

With the powerful defensive technique of Demon Scale Armor, coupled with his own body’s defenses, he had no problem ensuring his own safety.

"Run!"

Without a second word, the Landing Clan Leader turned and fled.

At this moment, within the tribe, he was the only one who could contend with Chen Yu, and of course, he also knew that he was no match for Chen Yu.

If they fought head-on, the Landing Clan Leader also risked perishing.

Escaping was the only way to survive, and if he could drag it out until reinforcements arrived, he could take his revenge.

Swallowing a few pills, the Landing Clan Leader felt his True Yuan gradually recover, and his speed surged, turning into a blue afterimage as he escaped.

"Clan Leader!"

The people of the Landing Tribe watched their clan leader escape, each filled with panic.

They had initially held an advantage over the people of Chu Country, but now their morale was scattered and their hearts wavered.

In truth, the Landing Clan Leader had no other choice; if he didn’t flee, he might have fallen.

"Commander Chen, we’ve won!"

Deputy Commander Wei looked up at Chen Yu in the sky, his emotions surging.

Although the Landing Clan Leader had fled, they had truly conquered this place and achieved a great victory.

Moreover, according to the alliance’s rules, the spoils of war obtained on the battlefield belonged to the individuals who acquired them.

Deputy Commander Wei couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of how many resources they could loot from the Landing Tribe.

However, what Chen Yu did next stunned Deputy Commander Wei.

Swoosh!

Chen Yu retrieved his Giant Ruler Sword and immediately gave chase.

He believed the real treasures were likely in the Landing Clan Leader’s storage bag.

Just like the elixir that had just increased the Fire Horned Deer’s strength, the one that enhanced the explosive power, as well as those that restored True Yuan and boosted speed.

As for the other high-ranking members he had just slain, he had left the Red Flame King to loot their spoils.

"This old fellow is really fast."

Without saying another word, Chen Yu took out a black remnant wing, stirring up a black wind as he swiftly pursued.

The Landing Clan Leader, who hadn’t fled far, suddenly felt the pressure behind him and the sound of breaking wind, causing his heart to pound fiercely.

"What’s that? A flying treasure that boosts speed?"

The Landing Clan Leader felt both dejected and terrified.

Chen Yu was already fast, but with the flying treasure, he was much faster, gradually closing in on the Landing Clan Leader.

In fact, even without this treasure, Chen Yu was confident he could catch up with the Landing Clan Leader, it would just take a bit more time.

Boom!

From behind, Chen Yu swung the Giant Ruler Sword, chopping through the air and releasing a shocking wave of black sword light.

Bang!

The Landing Clan Leader turned around, clapping his hands together to release a burst of blue flame palms. When the two forces collided, they created an explosion that propelled the Landing Clan Leader away for some distance.

Even so, he couldn’t escape.

Feeling Chen Yu rapidly approaching, the Landing Clan Leader suddenly stopped and turned around.

"I surrender!"

He immediately spoke up.

"Oh?"

Chen Yu’s lips curled into a slight smile as he looked at the Landing Clan Leader.

"I am no match for you and I can’t escape. I am willing to surrender, and I believe the Three Kingdoms to the south won’t refuse a pharmacist like myself."

The Landing Clan Leader stated his importance.

"Fine, if you swear a soul blood oath of loyalty to me, I’ll spare your life."

Chen Yu was naturally willing to take a Guiyuan Realm practitioner for his own use.

A soul blood oath was a special vow a person made to themselves. Breaking it would result in a heart demon affecting one’s entire life and could even lead to death from the backlash during a breakthrough.

"Okay!"

The Landing Clan Leader immediately agreed.

But the next moment, he took out an elixir from his storage bag and swallowed it.

"Chen Yu, you dream if you think I’ll serve you!"

He suddenly roared, emitting chaotic and dangerous energy fluctuations, "Chen Yu, you’ve slaughtered my people, I’ll make sure we die together!"

The Landing Clan Leader looked resigned to his fate as the winds howled around him, the scene terrifying.

Anyone else would have been scared into retreating frantically.

If the Landing Clan Leader got close to them and truly self-destructed, death would be certain.

However, Chen Yu, though surprised, didn’t retreat too far.

He only needed to maintain a certain distance from the Landing Clan Leader, relying on his own defensive capabilities; he didn’t need to be too concerned.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that Chen Yu hadn’t retreated far, the Landing Clan Leader cursed and then turned to flee again.

He quickly swallowed another pill, and the dangerous aura on his body rapidly diminished.

His feigned self-destruction was a ruse created by using a special elixir.

Unfortunately for him, Chen Yu had not retreated far enough, which was why he cursed.

"You’ve lost your chance to live."

Chen Yu spoke coldly.

Thump thump! Thump thump thump!

Chen Yu’s heart suddenly exploded with power, his speed drastically increasing.

With the boost from the black remnant wings, Chen Yu’s speed was incredibly fast, and he almost instantly caught up to the Landing Clan Leader again.

"Die!"

Chen Yu didn’t utter another word and slashed out with his sword.

Due to the heart explosion, the might of this sword was world-shocking and outrageous, causing the Landing Clan Leader’s spirit to tremble slightly as he defended with all his might.

Boom!

Chen Yu’s strike obliterated the Landing Clan Leader’s defense layer like it was rotten wood and hammered into his chest.

The Landing Clan Leader spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood as his figure was sent flying backward.

Facing off against Chen Yu in the state of heart explosion, the Landing Clan Leader essentially had no power to resist and was wounded by Chen Yu in a single blow.

Swoosh!

Not giving the Landing Clan Leader a chance to react, Chen Yu swept out with his sword and rapidly closed in on him.

He swung the Giant Ruler Sword, releasing a field of gravity as the blade bore down with overwhelming pressure, targeting the Landing Clan Leader’s head.

"No..."

The Landing Clan Leader felt the crisis of death looming, his voice trembling in horror.

His initial intent was to hold Chen Yu off and wait for reinforcements, but Chen Yu knew this as well, so he didn’t hesitate to use some of his trump cards and finish the battle with lightning speed.

Bang!

Chen Yu’s sword came down, shattering the True Yuan protection and directly smashing the Landing Clan Leader’s head.

Taking the Landing Clan Leader’s storage bag, he watched the headless corpse of the Landing Clan Leader fall to the ground.

With the matter resolved, Chen Yu quickly returned.

At this moment, inside the Landing Tribe, many tribemates were still fighting with Chu people.

But as soon as Chen Yu appeared, the tribespeople were struck with a severe blow, their expressions horrified and some in panic.

They didn’t know whether the Landing Clan Leader was dead or alive; they only knew that with Chen Yu’s arrival, the outcome of the war was decided.

Inside the valley, the fighting gradually ceased and fell silent.

"Everyone, submit or die!"

Deputy Commander Wei immediately shouted.

"I’d rather die than submit to you!"

One of the tribemates roared and charged out, only to be killed by a Chu warrior in the next moment.

"I surrender!"

Among them, the majority chose to surrender.

After all, most people cherished their lives more.

Afterward, the entire army began looting the Landing Tribe, including not only rare materials and elixirs but also some unique treasures and alchemy furnaces, among other things.

The Iron Moon Strange Insect was devouring the internal organs of a Fire Horned Deer.

Chen Yu didn’t join the looting of the Landing Tribe but checked his spoils of war, believing that the good items would be in the hands of these high-ranking individuals.

"There are quite a few elixirs."

Chen Yu glanced at the Landing Clan Leader’s storage bag, which contained dozens of small and large elixir bottles, of which thirty percent were elixirs that Chen Yu had never seen before.

However, upon closer inspection, there weren’t many high-grade elixirs.

For instance, the "Blast Pill" that the Landing Clan Leader had used, Chen Yu couldn’t find a second one.

There were four "Recovery Pills" for restoring True Yuan and only two Origin Transformation Pills; besides that, other precious elixirs only had one or two pills each.

Concocting such high-quality elixirs required a great deal of resources and time, so even alchemists couldn’t possibly have too many precious elixirs.

"This pill!"

Chen Yu took out an elixir about the size of a baby’s fist from a purple wooden box.

Chen Yu didn’t recognize this elixir, but its scales were bright and profound, radiating a strange medicinal scent that made one’s blood boil. A single breath made Chen Yu feel warm and comfortable throughout his body and even caused a slight throbbing in the dragon scales bloodline within his mysterious heart space.

In Chen Yu’s estimation, this elixir was presumably of the highest quality among all the elixirs.

Of course, without knowing the specific use of the elixir, Chen Yu didn’t dare to consume it rashly.

Just as Chen Yu was about to put the elixir back.

"Wait a moment, boy..."

The Red Flame King, who was lying down resting, suddenly got up and called out to Chen Yu.

"This elixir is of great use to this king!"

The Red Flame King spoke bluntly.

"What use?"

Chen Yu asked.

"This pill can stimulate the bloodline of the Blood Scale Beast and likely promote bloodline advancement. Plus, it’s rich in vital essence, which can heal wounds and also advance cultivation."

The Red Flame King didn’t conceal anything and disclosed it all.

Chen Yu thought for a moment. Considering the reaction of the dragon scales bloodline just now, it probably had effects on the dragon scales as well.

But since the dragon scales bloodline was extracted by the mysterious heart and not originally his own, using a bit meant there would be less left, and now there wasn’t much remaining.

For Chen Yu to consume this elixir would be a complete waste.

"Besides, this elixir seems to be formulated for demon beasts and ancient beasts; it’s not suitable for humans."

The Red Flame King added another point.

With that, Chen Yu felt even less right about using the pill.

Nevertheless, giving it to the Red Flame King seemed fitting; he would likely achieve a breakthrough to the Guiyuan Realm shortly.

In addition, Chen Yu found the last essential rare material that the Red Flame King needed in the storage bag of a dark-faced elder.

With this, the Red Flame King’s plan could also proceed.

"With this pill and the formula for the medicinal liquid from my memory, who knows what effect it will ultimately have!"

The Red Flame King showed a rare hint of anticipation.

"It seems this trip was indeed worthwhile."

Chen Yu let out a sigh.

Elsewhere, after the Iron Moon Strange Insect finished with the Fire Horned Deer’s organs, it continued searching for other powerful demon beasts, though there weren’t many that could fulfill its requirements.

"Retreat!"

At a certain moment, Chen Yu suddenly issued the command.

While everyone was still scavenging, most people were reluctant to leave even after Chen Yu gave the order.

"If you don’t leave now, stay here and wait for death."

Chen Yu spoke indifferently and took to the skies.
