C35 (2/2)
”You're awake?”
During this period of time, he had tried to communicate with the Black Phoenix. Unfortunately, the Black Phoenix was in a deep slumber and did not show any signs of awakening.
The black phoenix nodded. ”Although I haven't recovered much of my strength, I have to thank you for providing me the crystal core. It has finally improved a little, but the distance between my strength and my previous peak state is really too far!”
Li Chen was secretly surprised. The black phoenix had once said that her current strength was not even one tenth of what it used to be. He had once compared the black phoenix's strength with that of a human transcendent martial saint.
However, was there really a Transcendent Martial Saint on this continent?
Li Chen had asked himself this many times in his heart.
Even though the answer was unknown, Li Chen still did not give up on his own cultivation. The path of the strong was destined to be filled with the unknown, but one day, those unknown things would all be easily solved!
Li Chen fished out something from his body. The eyes of the black phoenix lit up. This thing is not bad. Seems like it will be sufficient for me to cultivate for a period of time! ”
Li Chen smiled and said, ”Before you start cultivating, let's go do something!”
The Dark Phoenix's face was filled with suspicion. ”What are you doing?”
The corner of Li Chen's mouth revealed a cold and cruel smile. He spat out two words, ”Kill!”
The Skypiercing Mountain Range at night was much more dangerous than the daytime. Most mercenary groups would camp somewhere close to the water to rest, but they would definitely send guards to guard it. After all, it was normal to bury one foot in the mouth of a magical beast in such a place!
The person on duty tonight was quite a coincidence. He was the three Profound Practitioners who chased after Li Chen a while ago!
One of them looked around in boredom and started to chat with the people beside him, ”How many days do you think until the day of the sect's selection? When that time comes, do we have any chance of winning the selection?”
Another laughed, ”If nothing unexpected happens, the clan probably won't be willing to part with the three of us. After all, many things can't be done yet, and the clan will most likely send the dragon out.”
The one who spoke up at first was speechless. These three were considered the elites of the Long Family and had already reached the peak of the Xuan Wu Realm before they were thirty. They were given a little more time and soon crossed the threshold to become the Cast Divine Martial Sect!
Cast Divine Martial Sect? This was what it meant to be an expert. Dot! Unfortunately, their 3-fate wasn't good enough for them to back up. For example, even though Ji Longzhi's strength was clearly inferior to theirs, he was able to attract the attention of the other clans.
The more this warrior thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He then started to walk towards the side.
”Where are you going, Long San?”
Someone from behind shouted. Long San could tell it was Long Da's voice, so he didn't even turn around as he said, ”Go and clear it!”
Long Da wanted to say something, but Dragon 2 walked over and patted his shoulder. ”Don't bother with him. It's good for him to take a stroll.”
The three of them had grown up together, and they had a very good relationship with each other. They knew what Long San was thinking, and they also abhorred the injustice of the clan.
Long San didn't actually go far. He walked along the river and sighed.
”Everything's fine. What's Third Young Master Long sighing about?”
A voice suddenly sounded that frightened Long San. He hastily turned his head and saw that the figure under the moonlight was a bit blurry. That person slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of obsidian eyes.
”It's you!” Li Chen! ”You're not dead?”
Long San's heart skipped a beat when he saw Li Chen. His fingers seemed to be in pain again! This guy fell into the pool and didn't die!
”Third Young Master Long's memory is not bad, you still remember me!” The corner of Li Chen's mouth slightly lifted.
When Long San heard this, he couldn't help but sneer. ”The black pool of water was your lucky day, I didn't expect you to actually dare to appear in front of me. Since that's the case, don't blame me for being rude!”
As he finished speaking, Long San's body leaned forward and a green light flashed. His fingers were filled with green light as he reached for Li Chen's neck in an instant.
Long San's body rapidly enlarged, but Li Chen did not retreat a single inch. He slowly raised his fist, but there was an extremely strong stream of air surrounding it as it smashed towards his opponent!
As their fists and claws intersected, Long San let out a miserable cry and quickly retreated backwards. He looked at Li Chen with wide eyes: ”You! What kind of cultivation technique is this!? ”
At this moment, a layer of skin had almost peeled off from Long San's fingers. He looked at Li Chen in horror, as if he had seen a terrifying ghost.
The corner of Li Chen's mouth curled up in a casual smile. ”Come and taste the taste of corrosion!” Having said so, Li Chen's body was as fast as lightning. In Long San's eyes, he seemed to transform into a giant that could support both heaven and earth.
Li Chen stretched out his hand. The surroundings of his fist seemed to be ignited in flames! Long San was caught off guard and hastily used his spiritual energy to block. However, the energy barrier around him shattered the instant Li Chen touched it, and Long San immediately felt as if an extremely strong wave of heat was coming towards him. He didn't even have the time to scream before he was corroded to nothing.
