At last year's Youth Martial Dao Tournament.
Chu Sheng killed a clone of Orochi and harvested three Inner Cores.
He recycled the three Inner Cores on the spot, gaining 30,000 Life Essence.
It might not sound like much.
But back then, Chu Sheng was only at the Sixth-Grade!
Thirty thousand Life Essence was a huge amount for him at the time.
It was undoubtedly a massive windfall.
He even sighed in contentment back then.
'I hope a billion more of these "big scores" come my way.'
Who would have thought that a year later...
Orochi would deliver itself right to his doorstep!!!
'A Ninth Grade clone gave that much Life Essence.'
'The "reward" for a Divine Realm Orochi must be incredibly generous!!!'
'It might even be enough to push my Realm straight to the Peak of Emperor Realm!'
Iyamei noticed...
...that the way Chu Sheng was looking at her had suddenly become friendly.
Even...
...tinged with a hint of gratitude.
Even...
