The battle for the soul crystal is over, whether it is the demon beasts that have already grabbed the soul crystal, or those who have failed in the snatching, once they lose the attraction of the source crystal, they will inevitably continue to attack the surrounding humans.

Liao Fan dragged his seriously injured body and could no longer fight again, and the only thing he could do now was to find a place to hide.

Fortunately, there was also a Wei Jun who had just gotten by his side, who could find a hiding place for him, and after a period of searching, the two found a medium-sized supermarket.

Walking into the back space of the supermarket, they came to an underground warehouse, the warehouse is not large, only about 30 square meters of space, all sides are very closed, the space is also black and pressing, and it is not transparent.

Liao Fan dragged his tired body, limped to the corner of the wall, immediately leaned his body against the wall, and seized the time to close his eyes and recuperate.

Thinking back to the fierce battle just now, his face also showed a bitter taste.

The combat power of the tree spirit clan is quite good, in order to snatch the second-level source crystal, Liao Fansheng used his body to carry several attacks from the flower demon, if it weren't for the protection of the battle armor, I am afraid that he would have been killed by the flower demon long ago.

Rao is like this, and Liao Fan's physical condition is not optimistic.

His back was blasted open, and a small part of the poisonous powder emitted by the flower demon entered his body, causing his back to be numb, and as time went by, he couldn't even sense the existence of his body.

If it's just a trauma, it's okay to say, but the nerve paralysis toxins contained in these pollen can act on humans for a long time, even if Liao Fan has a superhuman-like physique, it is really difficult to immune.

He could only rely on the energy provided by the second-level source crystal, slowly adapting, and gradually decomposing the flower demon toxins in his body.

But this process is relatively long, and it can never be completed in a moment and a half, in order to ensure that during the period of recuperation, he will not be disturbed by the monsters outside, Liao Fan can only open his eyes tiredly, and tell Wei Jun who is guarding not far away,

"It will take me at least three days to regain my mobility, and in these three days, I will ask you to hold the warehouse passage for me, and don't let anything disturb me."

"Okay!"

Wei Jun nodded, looked at Liao Fan's tired appearance, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and whispered, "Then ...... you now?"

Before he finished speaking, Liao Fan shook his head and said, "If you can't die, you just need to do what I say." ”

After sending the Wei army away, Liao Fan continued to lean his back against the wall, and after looking around briefly, he closed his eyes again.

Although he was injured all over the body during this operation, compared to the gains, the injuries were nothing.

The energy in the air, as well as the strong body of the Ability, can help speed up the recovery of injuries.

What's more, that second-level source crystal is still in his body, as long as a certain amount of time is given to allow Liao Fan to fully refine these energies, the injuries in his body can recover on their own.

Of course, this process will take a little time, so after sending away the Wei army, Liao Fan immediately carried out the state of refining energy.

He settled his thoughts, emptied all the clutter, and slowly closed his eyes, examining himself as he drew the remaining source crystal energy in his abdomen.

At this point in the battle, half of the energy stored in the second-level source crystal has been consumed, but the remaining energy is already considerable.

Liao Fan had no way to completely refine them in a short period of time, so he could only spread his consciousness and constantly pull it, so that these energies poured into his limbs and meridians, making up for his own consumption while constantly strengthening his physical body.

The second-level source crystal did not disappoint Liao Fan, the vast energy stored in the source crystal was so strong that it made him palpitate, and through the fusion of these energy sources and his body, Liao Fan also clearly felt that both his physique and his bearing capacity continued to grow in a way that was visible to the naked eye.

Such progress made him fall into ecstasy.

Ever since he had completed the first stage of refining, Liao Fan had felt that his body had become saturated, and no matter how hard he tried to capture the source qi in the air, it seemed that he could not meet the needs of a stage of evolution.

To complete the second stage of evolution, the energy required is at least ten times that of the first stage, and relying on Liao Fan's own talent for energy refining alone, it will take at least several years to barely accumulate enough.

But now it's a different story.

The energy provided by the secondary source crystal is like a monstrous flood, inexhaustible, and after Liao Fan's subconscious guidance, all these energy sources have turned into trickles, flowing freely in the blood vessels and meridians.

And Liao Fan also uses these endless sources of energy to continuously enhance himself and steadily improve his evolutionary level.

It only took him a few hours before he felt an invisible barrier, as if evolution had touched a bottleneck, and he was only one last step away from completing the phased jump.

However, it is obviously not easy to break through this last barrier.

After several hours of continuous refining, Liao Fan stopped absorbing the source crystal, and then opened his eyes, staring at the blackened ceiling and walls, and muttered to himself,

"The second-level source crystal is too precious, I'm afraid that in a short period of time, there will not be a second one in Lin Cheng, if you want to break through this threshold as soon as possible, the current opportunity is only this one, I must concentrate all the energy and try to break through that realm, I hope the result can satisfy me......"

Even with the second-level source crystal in hand, Liao Fan still had some doubts in his heart about whether he could successfully break through the second-level combat power.

After all, in the previous life, even at the peak of his life, he only mastered the primary combat power.

What it would be like to be a second-level powerhouse, Liao Fan couldn't describe it, after all, he had never experienced it himself.

He only knows that this breakthrough can only succeed, and must not fail.

Once you fail, you will inevitably lose the opportunity to evolve and be surpassed by a large number of talented and powerful abilities.

And if the opportunity for evolution is lost, it will be difficult to grasp the initiative in the end times.

He forcibly suppressed his emotions and took a deep breath, but he was not in a hurry to hit the realm of the next layer, but slowly turned his gaze and looked at Wei Jun who was squatting alone in the passage of the warehouse.

At this time, Wei Jun was still holding the machete, and was sitting on the steps very anxiously, looking at the passage above him from time to time, as if he was worried that the monster might break in at any time.

It wasn't until he sensed Liao Fan's eyes that he stopped looking around, stood up with a little doubt, and slowly walked towards Liao Fandao, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, next, I have to go through a long retreat phase and try to break through the second-level combat power, but this process is very dangerous, and I am not too sure, so I must ensure the safety of the surroundings."

After several hours of adjustment, Liao Fan's body had obviously recovered, but he still pretended to be weak, leaning his back against the wall, his voice was also weak, and while speaking, he used his afterglow to observe Wei Jun's reaction.

Wei Jun was stunned, and said, "Don't worry, I will guard this passage for you, and I won't let anything disturb your recuperation no matter what." ”

Is it?

Liao Fan smiled, but his expression became playful, and he picked the corners of his mouth at Wei Jun, "Haven't you thought about killing me while I'm weak, and then snatching the things from me?" ”
