"Whoa!"

Looking at Duan Chen and the others who were walking towards him and wanted to leave, the many disciples who were originally gathered together to watch the excitement hurriedly opened a way for them with a face full of fear.

"Fortunately, when he was down, I didn't specifically target him!"

Looking at the emaciated but ruthless figure, such a sentence came out of everyone's hearts.

"Hmph, what's the matter, do you already regret your brain-dead behavior now?" Just as he passed by Lu Qi's side, Ling Xiao suddenly took shape, and then mocked Lu Qi, who was also stunned by the sudden change in front of him.

"Hmph, it's just that one waste defeats another waste, what can this prove? After Xie Zhen from the Southern Courtyard is out of the customs, you will know that waste will always be a waste!"

Facing Ling Xiao's ridicule, Lu Qi said angrily after glancing at Duan Chen, who was more than ten meters away. And when Ling Xiao heard Xie Zhen's name, a trace of worry slowly appeared in her beautiful eyes.

After all, Xie Zhen is a fierce man known as the first person of the young generation in the Southern Academy!

At night, after saying goodbye to Ling Xiao and the others, at this time, Dan saw Duan Chen, who was sitting on the bed, not only did not have the slightest excitement because he defeated Wang Kang during the day, but even stroked his wrist, which was still a little swollen and painful, with a sad face, and fell into deep thought.

In his opinion, with his crazy practice these days, although he had already practiced that ironwood skill to the realm of Xiaocheng, but despite this, when he fought with that Wang Kang today, his tiger mouth was still somewhat hurt.

From this point of view, if he still can't make progress in martial arts, even if he can finally practice that ironwood skill to the fullest, once he meets an opponent who is one level stronger than Wang Kang, it will definitely be in vain, because the difference in strength between each layer of martial arts is too big.

Thinking about this, Duan Chen couldn't help but look at the light seal in his palm, and then after finding that he hadn't received a response for a long time, he directly raised his right hand and shook it violently in the air.

Sure enough, as he continued to shake, the figure of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape flashed in his mind again.

"Kid, why are you calling me out so late, aren't you already very beautiful during the day!" Although there was still a trace of guilt in his heart for Duan Chen, it was obvious that the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, who had always been arrogant, was still very unhappy with the latter's similar behavior of calling back and forth.

"Okay, don't look like someone else owes you millions, okay, I just called you out to ask, why I still haven't had any signs of promotion until now?" Glancing at the displeased Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen went straight to the point.

"Well, well, it stands to reason that according to your current Yuan Force thickness, you should have been promoted almost early, could it be because of the lack of muscles and veins in your body?" After his gaze swept around Duan Chen's body, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape said suspiciously.

"How is it possible, if the muscles and veins are blocked, how can I explain my promotion in the past few years, so my muscles and veins must be fine!" Listening to the words of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen retorted.

"Alas, that's it, I can't explain it to you for a while, so let me help you find out your specific situation first!" Looking at Duan Chen, who looked confused, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape directly turned into a red light and disappeared.

More than ten minutes passed, and just as Duan Chen was a little impatient and was about to ask the Blood Pupil Demon Ape that had penetrated into his body, suddenly the latter's panting figure reappeared in his mind.

"How is it?have you found the reason?" Looking at the slightly tired black shadow, Duan Chen asked with a nervous face.

"It's too bad, your muscles and veins are really too bad for Nima, with the current state of Kongtong Yin, even if it can provide you with some help, but if there is no help from external forces, there is little hope for you to make a breakthrough, I thought you couldn't break through before because I stole your Yuan Force!"

Later, in the bitter water of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen had a deeper understanding of his muscles and martial arts.

It turns out that with the continuous growth of the level of martial arts, it also has more and more stringent requirements for the muscles and veins of the practitioners. For example, when you reach the second level of quenching, you may only need to have five smooth veins in your body to activate all the Yuan Force in your body.

However, if you have reached the third layer of the quenching body or the initial strength of the transformation element, you may have to have ten or even twenty smooth veins in your body to withstand the impact of the yuan force.

Therefore, this is also the reason why when the Blood Pupil Demon Ape probed Duan Chen's muscles and veins, he couldn't help but burst out of foul language. Because, eighty percent of the muscles and veins in Duan Chen's body were in an unsmooth state!

"Then, what should I do, is there any hope?" Listening to the Blood Pupil Demon Ape's narration, Duan Chen hurriedly asked.

"Well, this is not easy to say, it stands to reason that you have now become the owner of Kongtong Yin, and there should still be a chance with its help, but you have also seen its current ruined situation, so relying on its help alone is obviously a little impractical, but you and I can make a fair deal, how about it?"

Looking at Duan Chen, whose face was becoming more and more solemn, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape's eyes turned around.

"What kind of deal, if it's too much of a request, or if it's an evil thing that damages your character, you don't have to say it!" Looking at the Blood Pupil Demon Ape with eager eyes, Duan Chen reminded.

"Besides, I'm not as evil as you think, it's very simple, I want you to help me collect the beast core!"

"Collect the core?"

Listening to the words of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen instantly understood the reason, obviously with the condensation of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape and now the demon spirit, if he wanted to become stronger again in the fastest time, I am afraid that it would only be most effective by devouring the beast cores of other foreign beasts.

"Boy, don't hesitate any longer, anyway, it won't hurt you if I become stronger, and maybe with my help, you may be able to advance again!" Looking at Duan Chen, who was deep in thought, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape who was afraid that the latter would not be willing hurriedly said.

"Wait a minute, what do you mean by that?" Facing the urging of the Blood Pupil Demon Ape, Duan Chen frowned slightly.

"Alas, what a difficult little guy!" Looking at Duan Chen, who was far more thoughtful than his age, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape continued: "You also know that I can only help you provide you with some formulas and elixirs to dredge your muscles and veins, but I can't guarantee whether it will have any effect, but as long as you help me collect the beast core, I swear I will definitely do my best to help you!"

"Understood, but don't worry, even if I still can't advance in the end, I will do my best to help you collect the beast core if I have the opportunity!" Looking at the Blood Pupil Demon Ape whose eyes were instantly filled with gratitude, Duan Chen smiled bitterly and continued: "You don't have to look at me like this, because I have also experienced the pain of life that is worse than death when a strong person falls in an instant!"

Listening to Duan Chen's words, the Blood Pupil Demon Ape suddenly became silent.

"Well, is Kongtong Yin about to wake up?" Just as the atmosphere became a little silent, suddenly the Blood Pupil Demon Ape shouted with surprise on his face.

And with his shout, Duan Chen immediately looked towards the palm of his right hand.
