Chapter 40: A Cry Under the Stars
In the Nine Heavens Qiankun Tower, a young man Chiguo sat in an empty hall, his eyes closed, and a trace of aura fluctuations faintly appeared on his body.
The young man was undoubtedly Ling Chen, who had more than doubled his dantian by transforming and breaking through to the late stage of the martial artist outside the Mortal Dust Palace, and the aura in the spiritual veins had also been consumed a lot, he could feel a trace of oppression in his mind, and he had to fill the aura in the dantian before leaving the small tower.
The aura in the hall was the same as the aura outside the hall, the same faint fluorescence, the only difference was that Ling Chen did not feel a trace of aura in the five rooms in the hall.
Ling Chen's current strength has been able to enter the exercise room, weapon room, and library room, and there is still a layer of prohibition at the door of the Dan Pharmacy and the Formation Room, but Ling Chen can feel that the prohibition of the Formation Room seems to have fluctuated, as if it has been affected, as if it has been opened.
Ling Chen didn't have time to take care of these now, he came to the hall because the empty aura outside the hall made him very uncomfortable to enter this hall, he must now replenish the Xuan Power and Spiritual Qi in the shortest possible time.
Previously, Ling Chen's chest was dull and painful, and the muscles and veins in his entire chest became chaotic, but now under the effect of that mixed qi and blood power, there was no longer those feelings, and the Zhou Tian operation of Xuan Li became smooth.
Five hours later, Ling Chen felt that his spiritual power was close to exhaustion, and there was a buzzing tinnitus in his ears, just as the Xuan Power in the dantian and the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins had been refilled, Ling Chen hurriedly recited out of the tower.
"Poof!"
A dark shadow descended from mid-air into the waterhole, making a "huge" sound in the quiet of the night.
Ling Chen hurriedly swam from the pool to the shore quickly, his face was full of depression, he had entered the small tower in mid-air before, and he was still in mid-air when he came out.
"Fortunately, there is a waterhole down there, and I guess I will feel better if it is a troubled world. Ling Chen thought about it and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, he was now thinking clearly, where he entered the small tower and came out was also there, there would not be the slightest deviation.
If this is known by a strong man with a heart, squatting in place and waiting for his mental power to run out of helplessness to get out of the tower, he will really have no power to fight back, so Ling Chen can't use the small tower casually, in case it is coveted by someone with a heart.
After all, "the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." "He still knows.
At this time, the sky was full of stars, and the wilderness of the night was blown by a breeze from time to time, and there was no heat at all during the day.
But the night wind did not bring refreshment to Ling Chen, but blew up the dust on the ground, bringing dust to Ling Chen's face, Ling Chen hurriedly covered his eyes with one hand, and waited for the wind to pass, only to see the scene around him with the help of the moonlight.
Ling Chen looked at the lifeless and desolate land beside him, and his heart was shocked, just one blow could destroy a life!
In addition to Ling Chen's shock, the fluctuations of the previous falling water had quietly dispersed among the mountains and forests, and many sensitive fierce beasts had already hovered around Ling Chen.
The three demon wolves were the first to appear in front of Ling Chen, the fifth-order fierce beasts of the demon wolves were comparable to the strength of the mid-stage human martial artists, the three demon wolves showed their fierce teeth and kept pacing back and forth around Ling Chen, the wolves were notoriously cautious They were there to probe Ling Chen's strength.
The expression on Ling Chen's face had a hint of a smile, this was all in his expectation, he had a deep understanding of the night in the wild forest, as long as there was a little big movement, it would inevitably attract fierce beasts, but what Ling Chen didn't expect was that it was a demon wolf, if one of them he could indeed win easily, and two of them could still barely win, but now there were three in front of him!
The three demon wolves are equal to the three martial artists of the human race, and the demon wolves surpass the martial artists of the same strength in terms of speed and reflexes, but these comparisons are that the beasts have no intelligence and can only be easily culled, although most of the human martial artists have never studied combat skills.
But there are also some routines, although these skills can't be killed immediately, but they can be killed to some extent, which is why low-level beasts with strong physique are not the opponents of human martial arts.
If the martial cultivator of the later stage of his martial arts strength saw the three demon wolves with the strength of martial artists, he would inevitably run away, and Ling Chen looked at the three demon wolves who regarded himself as their prey, the battle intent in his heart was actually raging, and the black knife had appeared in Ling Chen's hand at some point, and Ling Chen's eyes were full of excitement at this time.
Ling Chen had just broken through to the late stage of martial arts in the tower, and his strength had not yet been completely stabilized, so the demon wolf sent up at this time was really good to help Ling Chen stabilize his cultivation.
"If you treat me as a prey, you will definitely pay the price, you are just a cultivation thing on my martial arts path!" Ling Chen said loudly to the three demon wolves, exuding a fierce battle intent all over his body.
The three demon wolves also seemed to feel Ling Chen's provocation, and looked at Ling Chen with bared teeth, the ferocity of a beast in their eyes.
"Come!" Ling Chen roared, and with the operation of Xuan Li, the momentum of his whole body rose sharply, and the essence in his eyes became even brighter!
The demon wolf was roared by Ling Chen, and all of them became extremely angry, the mane on his body was completely erected, and the expression on the wolf's face was not fierce, but hideous! A hideous desire to tear the prey apart!
Although they are not the kings of the entire forest, they are also a small king among the beast clans on the periphery, and the human martial cultivators have to walk around them when they see them, but now they are being provoked by a young man with a young face like this, they must tear Ling Chen apart and swallow it into their stomachs!
The three demon wolves quickly dispersed in Ling Chen's three directions, but they did not attack immediately but continued to look at Ling Chen, hoping to find some weakness, this is the hunting instinct of wolves, and they usually strike when their prey is destroyed.
Ling Chen saw that the demon wolf didn't mean to strike first, but kept looking at himself, and directly lifted the black knife in his hand and slashed at the one in front of him.
Seeing that Ling Chen actually took the initiative to attack, the demon wolf was not afraid, and his eyes showed an angry color, and he directly accelerated forward, and jumped up with sharp claws to meet Ling Chen's black knife directly.
Ling Chen originally thought that the demon wolf would dodge his attack, but this demon wolf ignored himself and resisted his attack with his minions.
"Khooth!"
The demon wolf's minions collided with Ling Chen's black knife and made a sound like blades colliding, Ling Chen and the demon wolf both thought that the momentum of the previous collision took a few steps back, Ling Chen's eyes flashed with shock, the demon wolf on the hillside was so vulnerable before, but now it can resist the blow of his own eighty percent strength.
Ling Chen advanced to the late stage of the martial arts, and his strength also soared, and now Ling Chen's strength is about eight hundred catties, plus the weight of the black knife itself can also reach a terrifying more than one thousand and one catties, this demon wolf actually resisted!
And after the demon wolf took a few steps back, his feet were weak, and he almost fell to the ground, and his front paws that collided with Ling Chen were trembling slightly.
Seeing this scene, Ling Chen was a little relieved, a fifth-order fierce beast could easily resist his own blow, so wouldn't a higher-order beast be able to kill himself lightly.
But Ling Chen didn't let his guard down, he knew that what demon wolves were best at was attrition and using speed advantages to carry out sneak attacks and attrition battles, and these nearly two-meter-tall demon wolves were not only amazingly fast, but also terrifying in the hardness of their bodies!
Before Ling Chen could think of a countermeasure, a demon wolf had already quietly walked behind him, and directly raised his claws like the previous demon wolf, grabbing directly towards Ling Chen's head with a fierce momentum.
Ling Chen noticed the strangeness behind him, and hurriedly turned around, and when he saw that the demon wolf had jumped into the air and was less than two feet away from him, he hurriedly poured the Xuan power in the dantian into the black knife frantically, and raised the knife to his shoulder to prepare for fire.
Ling Chen's face was stern, the mysterious power on the knife was constantly compressed and condensed by Ling Chen, a transparent but shining white scabbard seemed to appear on the black knife, Ling Chen held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, one hand was slightly bent and accumulated, and his eyes suddenly shot out a fine light. With a loud shout, a sword shadow as strong and fast as a violent wind rushed towards the demon wolf.
This blow is the first form of "Blood Shadow Blade": Tempest!
Now that Ling Chen has broken through, both his power and strength have increased a lot, and the previous actual combat has also allowed Ling Chen to accumulate a lot of deeper understanding of the move of the wind.
Ling Chen used the wind this time, whether it was the condensation of Xuan Power or the speed at which it was swinging, much earlier than before, and the strong speed directly raised the fine dust on the ground, and the air was instantly filled with dust.
Although the diffuse powder and ash blocked the demon wolf's vision, the powerful Xuan power fluctuations directly impacted the demon wolf through the layers of dust, and the demon wolf's originally hideous face instantly turned into horror, and it hurriedly went to the side slightly, wanting to avoid Ling Chen's attack.
But Ling Chen's blow was so fast and sharp, even if speed was the specialty of the demon wolf, but now it had no place to help in mid-air, although he successfully sideways Ling Chen's knife shadow, but he was still injured by the sharp knife qi, and a bloody mouth more than five inches long appeared on his hind legs, and his mouth continued to wail.
Ling Chen looked at the blow he had condensed earlier, and had already guessed some doorways in his heart, what the Hurricane move wanted was swift and fierce! Only by grasping the condensation of the sword swing and the Xuan Force could he truly exert the power of this move.
Ling Chen's guess is good, but is it just this kind of Cheng dรน produced by Xiaota?
The demon wolf fell to the ground and kept wailing, Ling Chen's face and expression looked at the demon wolf on the ground who was originally menacing, but now he was wailing, his thoughts were a little wandering.
Just as Ling Chen's attack had just ended, a bloody mouth bit directly on Ling Chen's bare shoulder, Ling Chen only felt his shoulder sink, and a huge pressure seemed to bite his shoulder.
Ling Chen's eyebrows furrowed, his face showed a look of pain, he directly gritted his teeth, and the Xuan Li in his left hand gathered wildly, Ling Chen's strength in the later stage of the martial artist was already more than eight hundred catties, plus this time Ling Chen used nearly thirty percent of the Xuan Power to increase his strength to nearly a thousand catties, Ling Chen's face was ruthless, his teeth were clenched, and he quickly and forcefully grabbed the back of the demon wolf's head with one hand and dragged it down directly, and fell to the ground fiercely.
"Bang!"
When the demon wolf was thrown to the ground by Ling Chen, there was a muffled sound, and the slightly quiet dust was raised again.
Ling Chen looked at the wound on his shoulder painfully, Ling Chen guessed in his heart that this time there might be another bloody hole in his shoulder, but to Ling Chen's surprise, there was no blood on the shoulder, only a row of red tooth marks.
Ling Chen's eyes were full of joy, it was not difficult to bite through the martial artist's skin with the bite of the demon wolf, he knew very well that this was the previous molt and rebirth that made the skin more tough, and there must also be a credit to the aura.
At this moment, the demon wolf that had launched the attack first rushed towards Ling Chen with its bloody mouth open.
Ling Chen's eyes froze, the black knife was held in his hand, and he directly poured the Xuan Power into the amplification power, and suddenly turned around and slashed towards the head of the demon wolf, and the demon wolf was slashed by Ling Chen without any chance to react.
Ling Chen's attacks were too fast, swift and ferocious, and in order to prevent future troubles, he turned around directly, and chopped off the head of the fallen demon wolf with both feet.
Seeing the tragic death of the two companions, the demon wolf with an injured foot made a puppy-like "huh" sound, dragging the injured leg and fleeing in a hurry towards the dense forest.
Ling Chen didn't chase after him, because he knew that this demon wolf would also die in the mouths of the wild bloodthirsty ants.
Looking at the two corpses of the originally fierce and brutal demon wolves on the ground, Ling Chen's eyes were extremely indifferent, and his thoughts kept thinking, the three demon wolves could be said to rule a small area, they were the overlords here, but they were ruthless invaders, they regarded themselves as mouths, but now they turned into corpses in their own hands.
The continent is like this, there is no place for a corner of paradise, there is no quiet paradise, in this continent where people eat people, people are more than people, ruthless and dark, no one can survive peacefully.
I don't offend anyone, but people come to offend me, which means that I am weak!
Failing to protect the people I cherish shows that I am weak!
Being slandered and ridiculed but unable to fight back shows that I am weak!
Only with strength can you be qualified to speak, only with strength can you not become a corpse under the feet of others, and only with strength can you protect the most precious things!
Ling Chen's green face was more resolute at the moment, his eyes were shining, the fire of dreams in his eyes had already been raging, his heart was surging like waves, his fists were clenched, looking at the bright stars in the sky, he shouted in his heart:
"What about cannibalism? I will be a cannibal!"
"How are people compared to people? It starts from the end, but being proud of the sky is what I yearn for!"
"What about the darkness? I will surely light up my own natal star among the stars, and I will be the right god!My star may not be the largest, but it must be the most dazzling!Dazzling enough to dispel the darkness of the entire continent!" I1387
