Chapter 1139: The danger of death
It's not a big effect, but it's better than nothing.
"Let me go back and say goodbye." After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he quickly flew to his residence.
Maria and the others were waiting, and they were immediately relieved to see Zhou Chen come back, but then Zhou Chen said about their situation, which made them worry again.
"It's okay, I'll be fine, you guys wait here for me to come back." Zhou Chen sighed, didn't dare to look at Maria's eyes, gritted his teeth, and left the room.
Xu Shengnan hugged Maria and said softly: "Master, don't worry, the master will definitely be safe." β
ββ¦β¦ Kindness. β
β¦β¦
"The Condensation Pill has limited healing for your injuries, but you can also try it." The Master of Compassion sat in the car and said to Zhou Chen: "But you have to be mentally prepared, because if this elixir does not work, it means that Satan's qi cannot be eradicated from your body, and you can only break through the restrictions of Satan's qi if you find a way to enter above the god refining level." β
"What if I can't get to the god refining god?" Zhou Chen said worriedly.
"Then within half a year, you will be occupied and become another person......"
Zhou Chen's heart shrank suddenly, although he had already thought of this possibility, but after hearing it, he still couldn't believe it.
This is on the way to Ciguang Tanyuan, Zhou Chen and Ci Pei sat in a car, and after a while, Zhou Chen arrived at Ciguang Tanyuan, and he was not in the mood to look elsewhere, so Zhou Chen entered a room, asked for a copper tripod, and began to refine the condensation pill.
Half an hour later, Zhou Chen gave up trying, and the gas in the small copper ingot really did not condense.
Zhou Chen didn't expect that it would be so difficult to take out the satanic black qi in his body, and with his cultivation that was almost infinitely close to refining gods, he couldn't even expel it. In this way, he endured the pain of lovesickness and came to the Ciguang Temple, was all this hard work in vain?
Zhou Chen pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and entered meditation again.
This time, Zhou Chen had no patience, temporarily suppressed all his scruples, swallowed the condensation pill, ran the internal qi at full speed, and began to urge Satan's black qi.
After almost three or four hours, Zhou Chen's forehead was already sweating profusely in pain, and suddenly he let out a painful wail, and a mouthful of black blood sprayed on the side of the bed.
Zhou Chen only felt a sharp pain in his brain, which made his body dance uncontrollably, and his face was pale without a trace of blood.
Fortunately, there were no bystanders in this room, otherwise he would have thought that Zhou Chen was suffering from madness. Zhou Chen barely managed to control the movement of his hands and feet, the muscles of his whole body twitched slightly, slapped it on his chest, and ripped off his clothes, only to see that a strange black mass on his chest was spreading along the heart position, and when he touched it lightly, it was like a needle prick in pain, Zhou Chen hurriedly took out the condensation pill, scratched it, felt that the pill turned into ice chips, and immediately covered the black gas on his chest.
After more than ten minutes, the black qi in Zhou Chen's chest began to dissipate, but there was still a blurred black shadow of fangs enveloping the heart area, and the fangs seemed to be wriggling, as if quietly devouring Zhou Chen's heart.
Zhou Chen was in a gloomy mood, according to the Master of Compassion, when the condensation pill has no effect on Satan's poisonous gas at all, then it will be poisoned once every five or six days, and in less than half a year, he will be completely occupied by the poisonous gas, and then he will seduce the Satanic black gas that dissipated back then into his body and become another person.
Who this person is, Zhou Chen doesn't have to guess to know, the veteran of the knight order who dissipated between heaven and earth when he entered eternal life, Satan.
I have finally cultivated to the present, and I have given it all to others as a dowry.
This matter is unacceptable to anyone, and it is no wonder that the five knight chiefs will do whatever it takes to enter the god refining, and it turns out that they are all forced to do so.
Under the light, Zhou Chen's face was cloudy, but after all, he had a lot of worries in his heart, it was impossible to lose his conscience like the Knights of the Holy Coffin, and he would rather be buried all over the world than live by himself, Zhou Chen couldn't do it.
"It's really not good, you can only transform the body, but fortunately, although Augustus is Yoland's apprentice, he has already mastered the secrets of the research laboratory, helped him kill Yoland, and then used Filia as bait, I believe he will help himself." Zhou Chen made the worst plan in his heart, but once he transformed his body, whether Maria would be able to accept himself at that time, Zhou Chen was not sure in his heart.
After a long time, Zhou Chen sighed, looked at the black fangs on his chest, and slapped his palm on the side of the bed in annoyance, and with a bang, the bed collapsed.
"Mr. Zhou, what's going on inside?" The waiter at the door asked.
"It's nothing, I didn't sleep honestly, I just fell out of bed." Zhou Chen said lightly.
The waiter was stunned, laughed twice, and then realized that his attitude was disrespectful, so he hurriedly closed his voice again, listened for a while, and found that the room was quiet, and then he was relieved.
This guest is different from the big people in the door, and he is very peaceful.
He thought.
At the same time, in the inner hall of the Tsz Kuang Temple, in front of a stone table several meters long, there were several middle-aged people, at this time several people were teaching their heads to ears, occasionally quieted down and looked at the innermost part of the stone table, and saw that the old man in the innermost part did not speak, so he whispered again.
The old man at the end of the stone table is the contemporary dean of the Ciguang Tan Academy, similar to the master of mercy of the Ming Sect, this old man is already very old, his face is wrinkled, if it were not for the faint undulating chest to prove that he is still breathing, I believe that many people will think that this is a seated enlightened monk, beside him, standing two children in short robes, only about ten years old, a man and a woman, the man is holding a willow branch, and the girl is holding a gossip plate.
At this time, the middle-aged people were arguing about something, and they gradually became excited.
"This time, like the incident of the hidden sect entering the mountains and forests, it is a major event that has not been encountered in a hundred years! As long as we catch Zhou Chen, force him to say how to run the Three Yang Dao Qi, and then study the meridian structure in his body, won't the Four Sects let us ravage at that time? I hope you can agree with my approach and arrest Zhou Chen. A fierce-looking middle-aged man on the left side shouted angrily, he has been operating in the three northeastern provinces for many years, and he has seen a lot of fighting and killing things on weekdays, and he doesn't want to be too roundabout at all, so he said his reasons when he opened his mouth.
"Hmph, Uncle Hei, you are naturally good at fighting, it's just too naΓ―ve! Zhou Chen's cultivation is almost back to the pinnacle of emptiness, if we rush to arrest him, what if something goes wrong and lets him escape? Who in the sect can face the revenge of a master who has returned to the peak of emptiness alone? At that time, we will all shrink into this sect and dare not go out, won't the sect be dragged down? On the other side of the stone table, a man in a white suit with eyes said dissatisfiedly, and when he saw that the man was still talking, he immediately retorted: "Besides, even if Zhou Chen is caught, won't the outside world put pressure on us?" Zhou Chen has many new enemies, but after all, the high-level people who resisted him are dead, and now the group of ministers who supported him are in power, they will definitely want us to release them, will we let them go? β
"Of course they won't let it go, they asked us to do research, and now they want us to release it when they see that we have arrested someone? When we are the Tsem Temple, what is the little brother who is casually called? The man said dissatisfiedly.
"Don't let go?" The man with glasses sneered and sneered: "After all, we are a Huaxia sect, and we have provoked those in power, our supply will be reduced by half first, don't forget that we are not the kind of sect that does not enter the WTO of the Four Sects, which of us here has no industry and manpower, once we deliberately make things difficult, the people below will definitely complain, which of you dares to say that you can ignore them ruthlessly?" β
The face of the man in the rivers and lakes was blue and white for a while, he was playing the underworld, and he naturally didn't dare to say it, although the rivers and lakes knew that it was a bargaining chip, but on the surface, everyone always had to keep face, once it was punctured, there was no good fruit to eat.
"Would the higher-ups really do that to us?" Someone next to him asked suspiciously.
"Possibly. Don't forget, those high-ranking people who died this time, Zhou Chen just didn't save them, those people were actually killed by the Holy Coffin Knights, the nature of the Holy Coffin Knights and the sect is not much different, and the new authorities will definitely worry that they themselves will suffer this kind of thing. We must be careful now, otherwise, even if there is only a little dissatisfaction with them, they will be suppressed at the crushing level, we have some foundation over the years, but if we are suppressed, it is difficult to guarantee that the four sects will not rob us of our resources. β
"But we're just watching the great opportunity slip away from us? We don't know what the high-level thinks after all, but Zhou Chen is alive in front of him, if I don't study it well, I'm always a little unwilling in my heart. A man in a lab coat sighed and said regretfully.
Seeing that the problem was back to the beginning, the man in glasses was about to speak again, but the man in the green suit sitting next to him gave him a look and asked the man in the glasses to stop, and the man in the green suit stood up and said, "Seven brothers, listen to me." We can discuss with the high-level to ensure that we will not rebel, and we can also let their children come to our sect to study, and directly become inner disciples to study the classics, so that they will not act extreme against our sect for the sake of their descendants. On the other hand, we can first talk to Zhou Chenxu and ask him to help us do the few things we promised, if he can overcome Satan's anger, we will not have happened in today's meeting, and cooperate with him with peace of mind, if he can't overcome it, we can naturally kidnap him and study him. β
The man in the green suit said this, smiled slightly, and his voice suddenly became gloomy: "After we get the secret of his success in cultivating the Three Yang Dao Qi, we will turn him into an obedient zombie or vampire, and then it can be regarded as adding the strongest hole card to our sect, and even those threats from the top can be ignored to a certain extent." A slave who returns to the peak of strength has no problem resisting nuclear bombs. β
The other people groaned for a while when they heard this, and immediately applauded excitedly, and the old man who was sitting in the depths opened his eyes, and a trace of essence flashed in his old eyes, and he closed his eyes again, and seemed to be asleep again.
"You're playing with fire, too! Don't forget, after the destruction of the Red Dust Outer Domain, the Four Sects will definitely not believe in the secular high-level anymore, the only thing they believe in is Zhou Chen, let's arrest Zhou Chen, it is equivalent to becoming a mortal enemy with the Four Sects, Zhou Chen has a lot of friends in the Four Sects, God knows if the Four Sects still have hidden masters of returning to the void, in case they break in to find us and ask for someone, what will we do? A middle-aged woman next to the man in the green suit said coldly, swept everyone around, and said: "Don't steal chickens and rice, we didn't get it, but we provoked several masters of returning to the void." β
"Yes, although the four sects are crippled, they have not hurt the core, so we can't easily ignore this variable." A man in a black tunic sitting closest to the old man said in a deep voice.
