Chapter 114: Black Fire Grows
The woman's name was Su Qingjun. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lu Chen knew her name, and he also knew that she was a gifted genius disciple of the Kunlun Sect, who was young and only one step away from the Jindan realm. She also has a very famous and powerful Yuanying Zhenren master, and even because the iron branch she was born in is the weak side, her master Kihara Zhenren and other elders of the iron branch are faintly pinning their hopes on her for the rise of the iron branch in the future.
She is the proud daughter of the sky, she is the top four-pillar wizard, she is one of the most dazzling young geniuses of the Kunlun faction today, in terms of momentum, even better than He Yi.
A miscellaneous disciple like Lu Chen could only look at her back quietly from a distance like now, and they were worlds apart from each other.
Perhaps only the red feather cape, which was so beautiful that it burned like a flame, could make him feel a little familiar and remind him of the small mountain village at the beginning, the mountain and the swallows in the mountain.
Lu Chen watched the woman's figure disappear into the depths of the incense garden, then turned around silently and left here.

After entering the list of spiritual power cultivation and coming to work in the Liuxiang Garden, Lu Chen's residence also moved over. Compared to the previous house in Shipan Valley, his current residence is obviously better, first of all, the place is half wider, the room is much brighter, including a lot more furniture, and there is even a desk in front of the window.
Perhaps it is these intangible benefits that make many miscellaneous disciples rush to this.
When Lu Chen returned to his house, it was already dark, and when he opened the door, a black shadow flashed, and Ah Tu greeted him.
Ah Tu is a hybrid descendant of two demon beasts, although it seems that the combat power of this thing is very inferior at the moment, and he is very sorry for its parents, but in terms of recovery speed, it is very good. When he first rescued it in the Confused Lands, Atu's broken leg was much faster than Yi Xin's severed hand. It's the same now, the first few **** just broke their bones out of nowhere, but now it's almost good.
Lu Chen squatted down and touched Ah Tu's head, Ah Tu wagged his tail, called him twice, and then kept looking out of the door.
"Hmm, do you want to go out and play?" Lu Chen asked.
Atu's tail wagged even more happily.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "You're not afraid of anything, it's good that the bones just broke, and now you don't remember it?"
"Wangwang......" Ah Tu snorted, as if he didn't care at all.
"Okay. Lu Chen smiled, "Whatever you want, I don't care about you if you want to be wild anyway, but don't make any more trouble for me." In addition, it is dark now, there is a curfew outside, and you can't go out when it's dark, so let's wait for tomorrow. ”
With that, he turned and closed the door. Because it was dark and there was no light in the room, so the surroundings were dark all of a sudden, and only the outline of some furniture could be vaguely seen, Lu Chen walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and Ah Tu also followed.
In the darkness, Ah Tu's eyes began to gradually brighten, and it was a strange gaze with a little green, shining in the darkness. It's a little creepy, a little eerie, and a little bizarre in beauty, like a pure and clear emerald.
Lu Chen looked at Ah Tu's eyes for a while, then looked away, lay on the bed, and then remained silent.
After a while, the sound of Suo Suo on the bed sounded, and it was Ah Tu who jumped on the bed, and then quietly lay down beside Lu Chen, his body curled up in a ball, and his two dark green eyes slowly disappeared, as if he had closed his eyes.
The night was deep, time passed little by little, and finally it was late at night, and there was no sound inside or outside the house.
Then, in the dark, Lu Chen, who had been lying quietly, suddenly opened his eyes.
His breathing, his heartbeat, was no change from before, and it was difficult for even the sharpest voyeur to detect the difference. In this darkness, where he could no longer reach his fingers, the pupils in his eyes seemed to have merged with the darkness around him.
It looks like a black flame that burns quietly.
Inside and outside, there was silence.
After waiting for a long time, he slowly raised his right hand and stretched it out to the place of his heart.
Seeing that his palm was about to touch his chest, suddenly, another strange arm stretched out from the darkness and pressed it on the back of his hand.
Lu Chen looked at it in a blink of an eye.
Two dark green flames slowly lit up in the darkness, right next to him. And what was holding the back of his hand just now was one of Atu's front paws.
Lu Chen was not surprised, nor was he flustered, he just quietly looked at Atu's strange eyes in the dark, and after a while, he suddenly smiled, and then said softly, "Do you want to go too?"
Ah Tu let out a low cry, as if in response.
"Good. Lu Chen said, then stretched out his other hand and took Ah Tu's body and held it in his arms.
In this process, Ah Tu was very cooperative, without the slightest struggle, and a warm body temperature came from it, adding a little warmth to this somewhat cold night.
In the darkness, Lu Chen hugged Ah Tu, then put his right hand on his chest again, then took a deep breath, and suddenly pressed down.

The familiar feeling of ups and downs suddenly hit, and there was a whistling sound in his ears that seemed to be far and near, and that moment seemed to be extraordinarily long, but after an inadvertent moment, when the light in front of Lu Chen's eyes lit up, his body had already changed places.
Lu Chen and Ah Tu fell on the ground in the "tree hole".
Of course, the fall was not serious, nor painful, but at least Ah Tu jumped to his feet, and then ran to the side with great excitement and joy, and began to smell and sniff around curiously.
Lu Chen sat up from the ground and looked around.
He hadn't entered this "tree hole" for a while, of course, because the last time he fought with the White Lotus, the branch of the girl's divine tree suddenly echoed strangely with the seed on his body, and then sucked the two of them into it, including Ah Tu. Fortunately, Bai Lian was suppressed by some kind of force that day, and she remained unconscious in this tree hole, so she didn't discover Lu Chen's biggest secret.
Compared with the past, this tree hole has undergone great changes, the ancient mottled tree walls have added some vitality again, and the misty green qi that wanders and entangles in the tree patterns has also become a lot stronger, and Lu Chen even saw that some of the tree walls looked like branches and tree nodules, and a little new green shoots reappeared.
Of course, all of this was due to the essence he squeezed out of the branch of the Divine Tree that day, but it was said to be the only remaining branch of the Divine Tree in this world, and at that time, Lu Chen felt that the essence of life contained in it was almost endless like an ocean. Only that abundant power can bring this ancient tree hole back to life.
Among all the changes brought about by the elite branches of the Divine Tree, what attracted Lu Chen's attention the most was not the changes on the tree wall in this ancient tree hole, but the outlines of the two doors that suddenly appeared in the depths of the ancient tree wall in two directions, one in front and one behind.
It was really just an outline, because even if Lu Chen walked close and touched it with his hands, he couldn't find any gaps at all. The two doors were like mysterious things hidden behind the mottled bark of the trees, visible but untouchable and unopened.
Lu Chen tried many methods, but to no avail, and even if he tried his best to recall what he had seen and heard when he lived in the Demon Sect, including all the legends of the Demon Sect that he had heard and seen, there had never been anything similar to these two gates.
The door is used to open, so what is the world behind the door?
Lu Chen subconsciously thought of that day, the starry sky in his memory, and the seemingly boundless dark void.
He suddenly felt a little cold.

"Wang, Wang......"
A barking sound came from the side, waking Lu Chen from his contemplation. He looked back, and saw that Ah Tu had run to the edge of the puddle in the middle of the tree hole at some point, lying on the side and looking at the water carefully, occasionally calling twice to the water, as if he was a little nervous.
Lu Chen walked over, looked into the water, and saw Atu's shadow reflected underwater, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't make a fuss, it's your own shadow." ”
Ah Tu glanced up at Lu Chen, snorted twice in a low voice, and suddenly raised his head and shouted into the water.
"Woo Woo, Woo Woo ......"
Lu Chen was a little surprised, and walked closer, following Ah Tu's gaze, only to see the black dog lying on the water's edge, but his eyes seemed to pass through the reflection in the water, and in the clear water, he looked deeper.
He fell silent suddenly.
He looked at Ah Tu in silence, looking at the dog as if the hair on his neck was slightly standing up because of nervousness.
After a while, he walked over, crouched down beside Atu, and hugged its head. In his arms, perhaps sensing the familiar body temperature and taste, Ah Tu quickly calmed down, no longer screaming and nervous, and his body relaxed.
"It's fine. Lu Chen whispered to it, "It's just a nasty fire." ”
Ah Tu didn't answer, didn't react, still leaned quietly beside him. Lu Chen looked down and crossed the water, and then saw that in the depths of the clear water below the water, behind the sparkling and shaking, a shadow was gradually revealed.
It was a black fire that burned silently deep underwater.
But the next moment, Lu Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.
The black flame seemed to have become a little bigger than he remembered.
The black flames burned silently, and it seemed as if the familiar image could never disappear from his memory, forever engraved in the deepest part of his memory like a demon.
Lu Chen slowly raised his head, his brows furrowed, looking at the ancient tree hole around him that seemed to be showing vitality, and suddenly thought, in this piece of vitality, could it be that the mysterious black fire also absorbed the power of life essence and slowly grew like this tree hole?
Could it be that the black fire, like this ancient tree hole, has some kind of unimaginable life?
