Chapter 366: 304

For a moment, everyone’s gaze turned toward Kong Linfeng.

With a sense of resignation, Kong Linfeng sighed and said, “Li Cheng’s comprehension, I’m afraid, can be called unparalleled.”

Only he and Xiao Changting knew that Li Cheng was the one who had made the Demon Suppression Bell ring thirteen times.

Since the Demon Suppression Bell relied on one’s comprehension, it highlighted the strength of Li Cheng’s comprehension.

Others might not know this, but Li Cheng’s terrifying achievements in the Pill Artifact Array were enough to illustrate his strong comprehension.

Without powerful comprehension, how could someone enhance the Pill Artifact Array to such a degree?

Emperor Xuankong was about to speak when he suddenly sensed something and released his Divine Sense into the sea of flames, “Has he achieved enlightenment?”

“In the state of enlightenment, the speed of comprehending the Laws vastly exceeds hundreds or even thousands of times that of the ordinary. Not bad, not bad.”

Days passed by, and Li Cheng remained in enlightenment, which astounded Emperor Xuankong!

“What kind of comprehension does it take to be in prolonged enlightenment? Such comprehension, I’m afraid, is unprecedented, isn’t it?”

The higher the comprehension, the easier it is to achieve enlightenment, but to say someone is in enlightenment every day, that’s impossible.

Yet Li Cheng was in enlightenment every day, which left Emperor Xuankong both shocked and perplexed, yet he couldn’t reach a conclusion.

Half a year passed, and Li Cheng’s Rule of Fire went from seven hundred thousand to thirty million!

If it weren’t for the second round’s start time approaching, Li Cheng really wanted to stay and comprehend to his limit. In that case, he would definitely become a Law Envoy of the Rule of Fire.

In half a year, nine tenths of the competitors were eliminated in the various competitions.

Although Li Cheng had not appeared for half a year, he was still the focal point of intense discussion at the Hundred Dynasties Meeting, and with the second round approaching, many began to anticipate his return.

Li Cheng stepped out of the flame space, still in the palace, where Kong Linfeng waited for him.

Seeing Li Cheng, Kong Linfeng nodded in satisfaction, “Emperor Xuankong has provided a lot of alchemical and artifact materials. Although he didn’t say it explicitly, he means for you to refine them during the competition.”

With those words, Kong Linfeng took out two Storage Rings.

Li Cheng received the Storage Rings and inspected them, astonished, “As expected of the Xuankong Divine Dynasty, they readily provided materials for one hundred thousand Divine Monarch Pills and one hundred thousand high-quality Divine Artifacts. If these are refined, should half of the finished products be shared with them?”

Kong Linfeng sighed, “By the rules, yes. But who would dare? If Emperor Xuankong doesn’t speak, who would dare to keep half?”

Li Cheng pondered, “One million Divine Monarch Pills could cultivate a significant number of Complete Divine Monarchs. If just a few of these powerhouses break through to Divine King, it would represent a tremendous force, not to mention a hundred thousand high-quality Divine Artifacts…”

Kong Linfeng shook his head, interrupting Li Cheng, “That’s not for us to worry about. In the next round, Emperor Xuankong will probably bring out Divine King Pill materials for you to refine!”

Now with thirty million Rule of Fire, refining one hundred thousand batches of Divine Monarch Pills at once posed no pressure, but Li Cheng didn’t know how Emperor Xuankong planned to distribute them, which was somewhat troublesome.

After thinking for a few seconds, Li Cheng asked, “What is Emperor Xuankong’s current attitude toward the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty?”

“Naturally, he is prepared to nurture the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty. For Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses, their vision has already gone beyond racial boundaries and contains no malice toward the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty,” Kong Linfeng said with a smile.

Kong Linfeng understood Li Cheng’s concerns—as Li Cheng refined a large number of pills, it would strengthen the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty, potentially prompting Emperor Xuankong to deal with them.

But Kong Linfeng also knew that someone like Emperor Xuankong wouldn’t actually worry about the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty becoming stronger; in fact, he might even hope for it.

“Or perhaps, Emperor Xuankong simply wants to see if you can mass-produce one hundred thousand Divine Pills and Divine Artifacts. Don’t think too much. Once they’re refined, it will all become clear,” Kong Linfeng added.

Li Cheng nodded, put away the Storage Rings, and prepared for the second round to begin.
