449: Chapter 449 The Last Resort

For the past half month, Chen Yi has been performing Energy Guidance for The girls every day.

Under the ten-fold amplification effect of Elemental Resonance, the energy of these treasures was extracted and absorbed to the maximum extent.

Visible streams of colorful light surged out from various heaven and earth spiritual treasures, and under Chen Yi's guidance, they were divided into thirteen strands and injected into each girl's body!

This process lasted for almost fifteen full days!

All the stored heaven and earth spiritual treasures in the Crystal Palace were completely exhausted!

Thanks to this, the Rank of all The girls broke through to above Tier 12.

This can definitely be called top-tier powerhouses in this world.

Half a year ago, Tier 12 was already the level of top combat power for various countries.

But now, Chen Yi suddenly has eleven more by his side.

Hua Liuli even broke through to the Thirteenth Rank.

She was originally at the eighth stage of the eleventh Rank, just one step away from the Thirteenth Rank.

With the support of Elemental Resonance, she not only broke through the Bottleneck but also rushed directly to the initial stage of the Thirteenth Rank, her strength skyrocketing.

After finishing Cultivate, Hua Liuli felt the surging power within her, and her eyes looking at Chen Yi were filled with amazement.

"Chen Yi, this secret technique of yours—it's simply Heaven-Defying!"

She has lived for hundreds of years and seen countless Cultivate methods, but she has never seen such an efficient way to improve!

A mere fifteen days is worth fifty years of bitter Cultivate for an ordinary person!

Chen Yi smiled: "It's all because of you, Liuli!"

"Me?"

"Yes! I mean it!"

Chen Yi was telling the truth!

After all, if it weren't for contracting Hua Liuli, who contributed a large amount of Enhancement Points and SSS-Rank Talent.

He wouldn't have been able to sustain this kind of Cultivate progress!

Besides this, Chen Yi also helped Hua Liuli reincarnate a large number of Demon Emperors.

In total, thirty-seven Demon Emperors were reincarnated!

Unexpectedly, Chen Yi even recognized most of these Demon Emperors from their past lives.

Extremely absurd!

An extremely ridiculous thought surged into Chen Yi's mind at this moment.

Could it be that these reincarnated Demon Emperors were only able to reincarnate because they would intersect with Chen Yi in the future?

Just like Black Rose, because she had interactions with Chen Yi in her past life, even after demonization, she retained a trace of clarity and could eventually be redeemed.

Then, are these Demon Emperors—perhaps they are also similar fated people?

It's really a bit bizarre—

Fate is something that is sometimes chillingly coincidental.

Hua Liuli did not deprive these Demon Emperors of their memories, but instead gave the choice to them.

After the reincarnation ceremony, every Demon Emperor regained the memories of their past life.

They remembered who they were, how they died, and the pain and struggle after being demonized.

Although they hated it, hated that they died without knowing why, they all chose to cooperate with Chen Yi's group to jointly resist future dangers.

Because they knew that the real enemy was not humans, nor each other.

But the source that created all these tragedies—world malice!

Perhaps after killing world malice, they would be able to return to this world!

When the time is right in the future, they will announce their identities.

Now is not the time.

If the outside world knew that there was a group of former Demon Emperors around Chen Yi, public opinion might become chaotic again.

Moreover, these girls also need time to adapt to their new identities and new powers!

At this point, all preparations were ready.

Strength improved, troops replenished, internal unity—Chen Yi's side was ready for total war.

However, Chen Yi discovered a problem.

No matter what, he could not break through to Tier 14.

For the past half month, through the feedback from his contracts, his attributes had improved to an astonishing degree.

It had already far exceeded the theoretical limit of the tenth stage of the Thirteenth Rank!

But no matter how he tried, no matter how he pushed, the threshold of Tier 14 remained unmoved.

It was as if an invisible barrier was firmly locking his power within the scope of the Thirteenth Rank.

He had no idea what was going on.

Emilia explained: "Your Physical Body is still essentially human. If you want to break through above Tier 14, a human's Physical Body cannot withstand this power!"

"When I broke through from the Thirteenth Rank to Tier 14, I was no longer human at that time, but a vampire."

"Although I still looked human on the outside, my inner essence of life was completely different."

"The human Physical Body has its limits. This limit cannot be broken through by Cultivate; it is an Innate limitation of the life level."

"Just like no matter how much an ant exercises, it won't grow into an elephant; this is determined by the blueprint of life!"

Chen Yi nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

After all, the only two beings he had seen above Tier 14 were those two.

Emilia and that Skeleton Progenitor were not human.

Emilia is a vampire, and the Skeleton Progenitor goes without saying—it is a Demon Emperor!

But what could be done?

He couldn't just stop being human, could he?

Chen Yi frowned.

He had never thought about giving up his human identity.

This was not only about personal identity, but more importantly—he looked at The girls beside him.

If he was no longer human, no longer a Beast Tamer, how would they see him?

Could they still get along as they do now?

But if he couldn't get past this hurdle, even if he borrowed the array eyes left by the Demon Abyss Cult in various places, it would actually be of no help.

Hua Liuli's original plan was—to inject the final potion, become a full-form Demon Emperor, and then use the array eyes located around the world to gather energy and forcibly break through to Tier 15, which is to become a god!

Now the array eyes were still there, and the method of gathering energy was still there, but the prerequisite was—to inject the final potion.

What should he do?

Chen Yi was in a dilemma.

On one hand, he needed stronger power to confront the main body of world malice that was about to descend;

On the other hand, he did not want to give up his human identity.

Just then, Hua Liuli suddenly suggested: "Chen Yi, actually I have a method, but it depends on whether you are willing to accept it!"

Chen Yi frowned: "What method is it?"

"The final potion!"

Hua Liuli said word by word, "Chen Yi, you are now also an array eye for the Space-Time Rift! In my opinion, if you inject it, the effect should be the same as mine!"

"Inject the final potion?"

Chen Yi was stunned, "Are you sure? This—are you sure nothing will go wrong?"

He knew exactly what the final potion was!

Once the final potion is injected, one will directly transform into a full-form Demon Emperor.

Hua Liuli had wanted to use this item, combined with the array eyes buried in Secret Realms around the world, to gather spiritual energy and break through to become a god.

Now it was actually going to be used on him?

And turning into a Demon Emperor, how could one think of that as anything but strange?

In Chen Yi's mind, an image of himself with horns, a tail, and covered in Devilish Qi appeared—

He couldn't help but shiver.

Wouldn't his future sexual happiness be gone?

This thought flashed through his mind, but it was indeed a realistic problem.

After all, male Demon Emperors don't need to reproduce; he wouldn't lose that thing, would he?
