Chapter 13: Lethal Means

Zhao Changfeng, who was speeding on the road, only felt that his body was getting weaker and weaker, and his vision was becoming more and more blurred, but fortunately, the Blood Scorpion Martial Arts Hall was not far from his home, and Zhao Changfeng's speed at this time was much faster than his previous self, and with the support of his strong will, Zhao Changfeng finally returned home before he was completely unconscious.

At this time, his steps were staggering, his face was gray, and even his clear eyes had become cloudy, and now he was like a dying patient, except for the appearance of a seventeen-year-old young man, and he would die in the next second.

When Zhao Changfeng came to his bedside and stretched out his hand to push, he found that the bed in front of him was not moving at all, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect that a bed that was ordinary in his eyes before would now become the most difficult level in front of his hope of life. But Zhao Changfeng would not give up like this, at this time he propped up the bed with both hands, his feet kept strolling on the ground, and the whole person was standing here diagonally, and his whole body was trembling due to overload.

"You give it to me...... Open!" A hoarse voice came out of Zhao Changfeng's dry throat, perhaps supported by a strong desire to survive, Zhao Changfeng's weak body burst out with a force again, and finally pushed the bed away, revealing the dark grid below it, and Zhao Changfeng also fell to his knees weakly because he exhausted his last bit of strength. Watching the patterns on the floor flicker, Zhao Changfeng's brain was full of sleep.

"Can't sleep!" Zhao Changfeng gritted his teeth, he had a hunch that if he fainted, this would probably be the last picture he had seen in his life.

"I don't know if it works, so I can only gamble. Seeing the hundreds of bottles of potion in front of him, Zhao Changfeng only had time to pour one of the bottles of potion into his mouth, and then collapsed to the ground weakly. Feeling the flow of the liquid medicine in his chest, Zhao Changfeng could only pray silently in his heart.

With Zhao Changfeng's fall, the room also became silent, although Zhao Changfeng was motionless as if he was dead, but the rich death aura that surrounded him before gradually faded, and Zhao Changfeng also took advantage of this to have the strength to breathe and opened his eyes again.

"It's useful!" Zhao Changfeng was ecstatic in his heart, with an excited look in his eyes, at this time he got up with difficulty, and cast his eyes on these reagents, his face crawled with a ruthless color, and then in just a few minutes, Zhao Changfeng poured all these hundreds of bottles of liquid medicine into his mouth. As soon as these medicinal liquids were swallowed by Zhao Changfeng, they were quickly absorbed, and then turned into thousands of clear streams, scattered into the limbs and hundreds of remains, and then Zhao Changfeng only felt a powerful feeling immediately coming from all over his body. Later, I don't know if it was because the body became stronger or because of it, and the devouring of the life force in the heart gradually slowed down.

"A warrior is a warrior, and although my body has not gone through the process of being tempered by the Force, its essence has changed dramatically. Zhao Changfeng thought that he had pain all over his body when he used a bottle of medicine before, and now he used all the hundreds of bottles of medicine without the slightest pain, and he couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the strength of the martial artist.

But now everything is unknown, with the support of these elixirs alone, Zhao Changfeng is still not very relieved, at this time he sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and began to cultivate, as the exercise mantra continued to appear in his mind, the Force around his body gradually led out of the void, and then drilled into Zhao Changfeng's body. Although the force of cultivation in this way came very slowly, in the face of the current crisis, Zhao Changfeng still decided not to let go of this possibility of survival.

In this way, Zhao Changfeng resisted the devouring of the qi and blood in his body, and at the same time used the exercises to cultivate the Force, as time passed, the twelve qi and blood that had been consumed by him before finally recovered, and the terrifying suction in his body disappeared, and everything returned to normal.

"Whew-" Zhao Changfeng felt that although his body was not strengthened, he finally saved his life, and then let out a long breath, at this time, with the resolution of the life and death crisis, Zhao Changfeng also had time to think about something.

"What the hell is going on. Zhao Changfeng muttered in his heart, in fact, although Zhao Changfeng had just become a martial artist, he had already had a deep understanding of martial artists, like today when he suddenly felt the dantian, he had already found that his dantian had already existed, and then he felt those red silk threads around his dantian, they were wrapped around the dantian, and the dantian was wrapped tightly, although these silk threads only existed for a moment and disappeared, but he was sure that these silk threads were the culprits that caused his body to be abnormal for so many years.

"What kind of means is it to isolate other people's dantian without knowing it? There is also that mysterious qi and blood, although they can be controlled by me and increase my strength three times in an instant, but they do not hesitate to devour me frantically in order to make up for their own consumption, and they don't take my life seriously at all. Zhao Changfeng thought of this, and suddenly found that from the beginning to the present, all the problems that appeared in his body were something he had never understood, and just as he, at this time, in his mind, a person suddenly appeared.

"Bai Changtian. Zhao Changfeng muttered, at this time he suddenly remembered that when he became a martial artist at a critical moment, although Bai Changtian hid it well, but the unbelievable color that surpassed everyone did not escape his eyes, although it was indeed incredible to reverse the situation and become a martial artist at that time, but Bai Changtian's expression was more surprised than everyone else.

"I have never known him in my life, why did he have to put me to death? Zhao Changfeng muttered to himself, he had a feeling that his various questions might be answered by the Bai family. At this time, he just wanted to think about this matter in depth, but unexpectedly, the suction that had just subsided appeared again at this time, and its momentum was far stronger than before, and it was already beyond Zhao Changfeng's tolerance as soon as it appeared.

"Not good!" Zhao Changfeng's heart trembled, because this suction force caused the blood in his whole body to boil, Zhao Changfeng only felt that his chest was hot and unbearable, and a blood gas was about to spurt out, but it was absorbed in an instant. At this time, he realized that the mysterious qi and blood that had been in his heart before had rushed out of his heart at this time, and then it was like a cell, split into two, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into twenty-four broken blood qi, which continued to devour like twenty-four black holes, and it was now devouring more than just life force. Zhao Changfeng raised his arm to take a look, and was horrified to find that just a moment later, his full arm had shrunk a circle, and it was still shrinking rapidly, and after a few breaths, there was no trace of flesh and blood, only the crumpled dry skin was tightly wrapped around the bones, Zhao Changfeng put down his arm weakly, he already knew without looking at it, and his whole body must have become like this at this time.

"I see, these blood qi are black holes, there is no time to eat at all, before my dantian was sealed, the force I introduced into my body is a rootless wood, these blood qi can't find the source, can only absorb these rootless forces. And now that I have the dantian, the Force has a root, and after these blood qi absorb the Force, I can continue to absorb my life through my dantian. From the moment I broke the seal, I was doomed to die, what a good means. The feeling of dying made Zhao Changfeng's brain run quickly, and he thought about it clearly in an instant, but now that he couldn't escape death, it was useless to think about it any more.

"Who is it that calculates me so much and puts me to death?" Zhao Changfeng was still thinking about this question in his heart at the last moment when he lost consciousness.

......

The universe beyond the sky is boundless and lifeless, and darkness and death are constantly intertwined, which makes people despair, but in the boundless darkness, I don't know how far, there is a strange object floating in the boundless void, its shape is neither a broken meteorite, nor a round planet, but a flat object like a compass. Although this compass was only a few zhang in size, like a helpless leaf in this terrifying void, it gave people a sense of security even more than that of a star countless times larger than him, perhaps because of the figure in the center of this land.

I saw that in the center of this compass, there was an unusually tall figure sitting cross-legged, the whole person was wrapped in a robe, although I couldn't see the specific appearance, but the ancient aura it exuded was unusually clear, as if he had existed in this universe for countless thousands of years.

"Why did this die so soon?" a voice sounded in the robe, the sound of the vicissitudes of the ancient well had an unconcealed surprise, the presence in the robe stretched out a thick arm, and a gray cloud appeared between his palms. This gray cloud was like a living thing, struggling violently in the huge palm, and if you looked closely, you could vaguely see a frightened face in the surging clouds, it was Zhao Changfeng.

"No! there's not enough time... That's all I can do. Looking at the gray cloud in the palm of his hand, the existence in the robe groaned for a long time, and finally there was a hint of decisiveness in his eyes, and the palm that held the gray cloud qi before gradually loosened, and there was an extra golden mark in the cloud than before.

"Go ahead. With a wave of the man's hand, the gray cloud immediately turned into a streamer and flew away, disappearing into the void in front of him.

"The last chance, we must seize it, this time we must not allow failure!" In the dark void, there was a sigh of vicissitudes.
