With a long howl from Li Fan, the dungeon began to shake again, and rubble continued to fall.
Li Fan stood in the middle of the shattered rocks, but when these shattered rocks landed near his body, they would all be shattered by his true energy!
He sat cross-legged on the ground and endured his pain. He allowed his spirit to be fully immersed in his cultivation, controlling the true energy within his body and beginning his breakthrough to the seventh acupoint!
This kind of impact was not controlled by Li Fan because it was driven by Wang Sen's power, crazily rushing towards the seventh acupoint!
Li Fan felt as if he had been repeatedly struck by a sledgehammer, and every time he felt a bone splitting pain!
Persistence... If he could not persevere any longer, he would be finished! If it was light, he would disperse his cultivation, but if it was heavy, he would go berserk and die!
The seventh acupoint's defensive door was extremely sturdy, like a city with an impregnable strength! No matter how the two streams of true qi clashed, they remained unmoved!
Li Fan felt that this was not an option. He suddenly had an inspiration and endured the pain. His two streams of zhenqi intertwined together to form a drill point shape as he charged towards the seventh acupoint!
Just like a drill, a crack finally appeared in the seventh acupoint's defense!
However, the pain on Li Fan's body had also reached its limit. He could not hold on any longer!
There was no other way. Li Fan could only send Wang Sen's power into the Invigorated Meridian. There was a very secretive place on this Divine Path. Normally, he didn't know what it was used for, but at this moment, it could be used to store true qi.
Li Fan temporarily stored the Qi he absorbed from Wang Sen there and his body relaxed a lot. He was also lying in the ice-cold water, feeling that he would have to take a bath when he got back …
To encounter such a situation … It was hard to tell if it was luck or bad luck. In short, he couldn't let Yin Wu Chao find out that he came here. He kept Wang Sen locked up, so it was naturally useful. Now that Wang Sen was dead, he would probably go into a rage.
He couldn't alert the enemy before rescuing the young miss of the Yin family.
As Li Fan was about to leave, he suddenly realized that the posture of Wang Sen's corpse was very strange. He was clearly lying there, but his finger seemed to be pointing into the distance, as if wanting to tell Li Fan something.
Li Fan followed his finger and saw that he was pointing at a wall in the dungeon.
The construction of the dungeon was rather exquisite, the surrounding walls were carved into the wall. The statues depicted the appearances of several Wise Kings, each of them had a ferocious expression, more like that of an Asura.
Wang Sen pointed at one of the statues with his hands held high, while Li Fan walked over and carefully examined it. He felt that this statue's eyes were different from the others. There seemed to be gaps in its eyes.
Li Fan was a smart guy. He reached out his hand and pressed it against the crack. With a ”ka” sound, he pressed down those eyeballs that had a crack in them.
The sculpture suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a piece of parchment onto Li Fan's palm.
”Huh?”
Li Fan raised the torch he had previously placed to the side and carefully examined the parchment paper.
The picture on it was very familiar. It was a monastic design, but the posture was slightly different. The image of the monk from before was that of a monk sitting cross-legged, but this one was completely independent from the others. On top of that, there was also an acupoint diagram, and it was similar to Li Fan's diagram; the true qi was retrograde!
”Why is it like this again …”
Li Fan was very confused. These two diagrams definitely had some connection to each other, but what kind of martial arts could use such a retrograde method to practice?
Li Fan didn't understand, and now was not the time to study these things. It was getting late, and he had to hurry back to his room so that no one would notice.
He stuffed the parchment into his tattered clothes and followed the passage out of the cave. Even the cliff outside wouldn't be too difficult for Li Fan. He climbed up in a few seconds, borrowing the moonlight to return to the courtyard.
The lights in the hut in front of the courtyard had all been turned off, and it was obvious that the maid, Xiao Wu, had also gone to sleep. Li Fan snuck back into his room and closed the door.
He simply washed himself and lay down on the bed in the room.
