All nine tails were given to Su Chen in exchange for a hundred liters of chaotic current.
For Su Chen, a hundred liters of chaotic current is not a small amount. It would require the Divine Mansion to operate continuously for a day and night to produce that much.
Fortunately, Su Chen had some stored. In the Divine Mansion, he regularly stored at least two to three hundred liters of chaotic current to prevent any urgent need.
Exchanging a hundred liters of chaotic current for the nine tails was like netting a white wolf for Su Chen. He essentially paid nothing, as the chaotic current was a renewable resource for him—be it a hundred liters, a thousand liters, or ten thousand liters, it was all the same.
But the nine tails were different. These were nine Great Dao Rules!
For a martial cultivator, any one tail would be more valuable than a million-year-old Vermilion Fruit, wouldn't it?
Just one Great Dao Rule could make a great progress for a Tao Realm martial cultivator, let alone nine tails?!
A huge profit.
Su Chen had profited greatly, and in fact, even the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp itself believed it had gained immensely.
Why?
It wasn't a fool; it was a captive existence. Ultimately, its nine tails would be taken away by someone—that was certain.
Since it was bound to lose the nine tails, why not exchange them for some benefits?
With a hundred liters of chaotic current, its bloodline concentration could be purified and refined by at least a third. Don't underestimate this third; with it, its strength could be significantly enhanced, and its chances of survival and vengeance would be greater.
In those years, it was forcibly captured by the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion. The hatred had never been forgotten!!!
It dreamed of revenge.
"Su... Su... Su Chen, how did you do it?" Shen Yiyao, who had been hiding behind Su Chen, was still in a daze. That was the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp! Su Chen could actually communicate with it? That rampant, crazed, ravenous, all-slaughtering Nine-tailed Dragon Carp was actually placating and calm before Su Chen.
It was truly like a dream within a dream.
She kept pinching her arm, hoping the pain would wake her from the dream.
But facts were facts; the scene before her couldn't possibly disappear.
"Secret." Su Chen chuckled. Naturally, explaining it would involve mentioning the Divine Mansion, but it was best kept from anyone knowing.
Not that he distrusted Shen Yiyao, but the Divine Mansion was too important. Aside from himself, Jiuyou, and the Old Dragon, he wouldn't tell anyone else.
After all, in the world of martial cultivation, some things aren't unknown just because you don't speak of them. Strange methods like the legendary illusion realm hypnosis or soul extraction could glean all sorts of desired information.
The fewer people knowing about the Divine Mansion, the better.
"Hmph." Shen Yiyao huffed, pouting instinctively, then grew excited again. She stared at the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp and said excitedly, "Su Chen, look, it's plucking off its own nine tails!!! Could it be giving all nine tails to you?"
Shen Yiyao's beautiful eyes nearly popped out.
Since getting to know him, she truly understood what was meant by mythology, by the impossible possible, by dreaming the unimaginable...
Her mouth agape, she was so riddled with excitement and thrill, her scalp tingled as though coursing with electric currents.
Very soon.
The Nine-tailed Dragon Carp plucked off all its nine tails.
Its dragon claw held the nine tails, handing them to Su Chen.
This scene!
Utterly shocking!!!
Within the Jiucang Divine Pavilion, Dugu Nantian, the Floating Demon Old Woman, and others nearly slackened.
The scene displayed on the crystal screen looked like a giant hand grasping their hearts!
Utterly terrifying.
A divine entity like the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp, such an arrogantly formidable demon beast, actually voluntarily plucked off its own nine tails to give to Su Chen?!
This was not just a haunting apparition but as if seeing the King of Hell.
The trembling terror was utterly unimaginable, the kind even dreams couldn't conjure!
Back then, even as a juvenile, the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp was already extremely troublesome. To capture the juvenile Nine-tailed Dragon Carp, even Gu Tianmiao personally took action, yet they merely captured it without making it submit.
Its rearing in Dragon Carp Sea was, in fact, a form of imprisonment?!
The entire Taiyuan Divine Pavilion couldn't make the juvenile Nine-tailed Dragon Carp submit—not even a youthful one.
Yet Su Chen, alone, made the adult Nine-tailed Dragon Carp submit just like that.
Dugu Nantian, the Floating Demon Old Woman, and others genuinely felt an urge to die!
They were really going mad!
Why on earth?! They genuinely wanted to capture Su Chen and uncover all his secrets.
Dragon Carp Sea.
Su Chen stored all the nine tails into the Azure Mysterious Ring.
Meanwhile, the chaotic current, colorless and odorless, was already given to the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp.
"Roar, roar, roar..." At the instant it received the chaotic current, the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp went wild, excited, lost control, roaring, bellowing, its aura swelling. It soared skyward, its dragon claw undulating, grabbing the heavens and earth, its terrifying giant form visibly growing by about a third, and the purple-reddish armor on its body glowed even brighter. Within its eyes was a distinct expression of gratitude. Up high in the sky, with wide open mouth, it issued eerie calls, its teeth intimidating, fixing its gaze on Su Chen.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
The Nine-tailed Dragon Carp was venting, expressing, celebrating.
The blood-red seawater below churned and roiled under its roaring, with waves building one higher than the other, accompanied by fierce winds and storms, accompanied by intense blood-reek, clashing, and surging into a whirlpool.
Su Chen nodded with a smile.
This was the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp thanking him.
However, in the next moment, Su Chen's smile swiftly vanished.
"Yi Yao, find a place to hide next," Su Chen said firmly.
Then, without giving Shen Yiyao time to ask anything, Su Chen raised his head, fixating on the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp!!!
Sound transmission to the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp.
"Help me, of course, that would also mean avenging yourself. Besides, after it's done, I'll give you a hundred liters of Chaotic Current as revenge."
The Nine-tailed Dragon Carp barely thought for a second.
It nodded directly.
That gigantic head nodded heavily.
Of course, it wanted revenge. Even if Su Chen didn't say anything, it would have taken action.
Unexpectedly, Su Chen still wanted to give revenge.
A tremendous good fortune.
At this moment, the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp had a very strong fondness for this human, Su Chen. This human was much, much, much better than that bunch of bastards from the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion.
"Su Chen!!! You are audacious! Seeking death! Hand over the Nine-Tailed, and I'll spare your body!" At that second, a deep, furious middle-aged man's voice enveloped the Dragon Carp Sea. That voice, like endless Heavenly Fire, directly halted and evaporated the pervasive rainstorm.
The middle-aged man spanned the heavens and earth, standing atop the void, with several elders beside him.
The middle-aged man's face was ashen, his square face bore a grim murderous intent, and his not-so-large eyes shone with a dazzling cold light. His gaze locked onto Su Chen, brimming with murderous intent, his whole body exuded a bloody aura.
The middle-aged man was, of course, Gu Tianmiao.
The enraged Gu Tianmiao was quite terrifying!
The aura of that Sixth Layer Peak in the Tao Realm was fully displayed, intimidating the Eight Desolations, almost suppressing and crushing the entire sea surface.
"Hahahaha... You must be the Pavilion Master of the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion, right? After scheming for countless years and sacrificing so much blood and vigor, you ended up making a wedding dress for someone else; aren't you furious, wanting to kill everything and everyone? Who do you blame? You insisted on letting your son provoke me. You insisted on letting the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion provoke me. Do you think I'm so easy to mess with?"
Yet, facing the furious Gu Tianmiao, Su Chen unexpectedly... had not a trace of fear or dread. Instead, he wore a mocking smile and shouted.
Su Chen was not someone to be trifled with.
If I don't provoke people, yet they provoke me, then it's a fight to the death.
Originally, the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion and I had nothing to do with each other, just passersby, but Gu Taisheng insisted on provoking me, even sending Liu Kuo to kill me.
Fine, then I'll mess with the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion.
Who's afraid of whom?
I've already got an undying battle with the Jiucang Divine Pavilion, so why fear another Taiyuan Divine Pavilion?
"Damn little wretch!!!" Gu Tianmiao gnashed his teeth: "Are you really not going to hand over the Nine-Tailed?"
Mentioning the Nine-Tailed, Su Chen was stabbing Gu Tianmiao's heart with a knife.
The Nine-Tailed was incredibly important to the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion, even being the pavilion's top priority in the recent millions of years!!!
The Taiyuan Divine Pavilion had paid an unknown price for the Nine-Tailed.
Now that the Nine-Tailed was mature, yet was snatched away by Su Chen, Gu Tianmiao was so enraged he was almost about to Deviate.
Su Chen even dared to provoke him further, in an instant, Gu Tianmiao's eyes were somewhat bloodshot.
"What do you think?" Su Chen suddenly laughed, then... then...
He performed an action that would drive everyone crazy and chill their hearts.
Hmm.
Even the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp was stunned by the action.
Under everyone's gaze.
Eight Tails from the Nine-Tailed suddenly appeared in front of Su Chen.
It was sudden.
Without any forewarning.
Then.
Su Chen opened his mouth wide.
Those Eight Tails transformed into flowing light and astonishingly... astonishingly... astonishingly were devoured by Su Chen directly.
Just like that, with Gu Tianmiao watching, Su Chen devoured the Eight Tails.
As for the remaining one tail, Su Chen planned to leave it for Shen Yiyao. One tail was also not insignificant for Shen Yiyao because, with her current strength, even devouring one tail would be considered overloading.
As for Su Chen himself, devouring Eight Tails alone wasn't easy, he was practically a madman among madmen, even Gu Tianmiao, or Dugu Nantian wouldn't dare to devour Eight Tails alone.
But Su Chen dared.
After all, after devouring it, he could store it in the Divine Mansion and slowly digest it.
Not to mention Eight Tails, even eighty tails would be okay.
At this moment.
The entire Dragon Carp Sea was deathly silent, deathly silent, deathly silent.
Even the bloody waves and tsunamis were at a standstill.
Gu Tianmiao stood in the air, the bloody Evil Qi around him directly turned into black Demonic Qi.
He was about to Deviate!!!
He had witnessed with his own eyes, saw the Eight Tails being devoured by Su Chen.
The grand plan of millions of years, vanished in an instant.
Countless years of effort, wasted in an instant.
All expectations, annihilated in an instant.
That kind of feeling is indescribable; for Gu Tianmiao, even if Gu Taisheng dies, it wouldn't compare to his current loss of control, anger, madness, slaughter, right?
In his mind, there was only one thought: to tear Su Chen into a million pieces, to drink Su Chen's blood, to grind Su Chen's bones.
"The Nine-tailed Dragon Carp, leave it to me, the rest is yours." In the next moment, just as Gu Tianmiao was about to make a move, Su Chen first borrowed the power of the Old Dragon, and also activated the Ancient Soul Ancestral Vein, pointing at Gu Tianmiao, shouting to the Nine-tailed Dragon Carp.
