Chapter 15: The Battle is Approaching
After leaving the black market, Ling Chen returned to Shen Yi Sect, Wu Chen Courtyard.
He poured most of the jar of nourishing spiritual liquid into the bathtub, and in an instant, the hot water turned dark green.
Without hesitation, Ling Chen took off all his clothes and jumped into the bathtub.
The extremely pure medicinal power penetrated into his pores and then spread to every part of his body.
Although the medicinal power of this Peiyuan Spirit Liquid is powerful, it is very gentle. While Ling Chen circulates his true energy, it merges with the true energy in his meridians.
The true Qi will grow stronger with each circle it circulates.
While blending with the true Qi, the medicinal power of the Peiyuan Lingye seemed to be baptizing the meridians wherever it passed, washing away impurities in the meridians and the body.
The powerful true qi is transported from the dantian to the meridians, and finally returns to the dantian through the meridians.
After one night.
A large amount of sticky impurities came out from the surface of Ling Chen's skin, emitting a strong fishy smell.
After repeating this process over and over again, the purity of the true energy in Ling Chen's body was greatly improved.
After putting on his clothes, Ling Chen picked up his sword and came to the backyard.
At this time, it was drizzling outside, and the raindrops hit Ling Chen's raincoat, making crackling sounds.
As if listening to the rhythm of the rain, Ling Chen remained motionless in the drizzle, like a living statue.
Be as quiet as a monkey and as swift as a rabbit.
Use stillness to overcome movement, and strike back to gain the upper hand.
Suddenly, Ling Chen took a step towards the ground, and countless water splashed up. His arms and legs seemed to have turned into a rapidly rotating turbine, rolling up countless water splashes.
With the help of the power of his legs, his body flew more than seven meters high. He let out a low roar and struck a piece of stone weighing hundreds of pounds in front of him with one palm.
boom!
The boulder was blasted high into the air. At this moment, Ling Chen swept forward again and swung his sword down fiercely.
boom!
When the sword fell, the stubborn stone weighing hundreds of pounds was smashed into pieces.
Ling Chen stared at the broken boulder with a bit of joy in his eyes, "The second move of the Dragon Seeking Sword Technique, White Dragon Passing Through the Crack, has finally been perfected."
The first move of the Dragon-Seeking Sword Technique, Hidden Dragon in the Abyss, was perfected not long ago. Any style of sword technique requires constant contemplation and practice in order to slowly grasp its essence. Learning and practicing to the level of perfection are two different concepts.
If you just learn it, you may only be able to use 50% to 60% of its power. But if you practice it to perfection, or even to perfection, you can exert 100% of its power.
After accumulating day by day, Ling Chen's martial arts cultivation finally reached the limit of the sixth level.
"Just a little bit more."
Ling Chen felt that his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and he was only one step away from successfully taking this step.
Ling Chen immediately tried two things at once, using the meridians in his body to absorb Dan Qi, continuously transforming it into True Qi and moving it to Dantian.
On the other side, he carefully controlled the true Qi and continued to circulate it in his Dantian, condensing the seventh ring of true Qi.
Trying to do two things at once is a huge test of a person's energy. Fortunately, Ling Chen's willpower is stronger than that of an ordinary person, and he actually succeeded despite trying to do two things at once!
The seventh Qi ring was condensed successfully!
Ling Chen's cultivation finally successfully reached the seventh level!
“Finally succeeded.”
Ling Chen slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, he quickly swallowed a pill that provided true energy, and began to operate the true energy ring in his dantian, quickly absorbing the true energy in the pill.
After his state of mind stabilized, he opened his eyes, and his pupils became extremely bright, just like two shining cold stars.
There are still three days left before the life-and-death battle with Yun Tianhe.
Next, just wait for the duel to come!
Ling Chen's eyes sparkled with brilliance.
…
The training ground west of Ye’s house.
Several people were walking and chatting there. The leader was Yun Tianhe. Next to him was a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was dressed in black, with a sword on his back. He had a resolute face and exuded a faint aura of iron and blood murder.
"Brother Yun Tianhe, can you postpone your fight with Ling Chen in three days?"
The young man in black suddenly turned his head and looked at Yun Tianhe and asked.
"That's definitely not possible," Yun Tianhe shook his head, "How can we postpone the agreed date? If I don't accept the challenge, won't people think I'm afraid of Ling Chen?"
"The current Ling Chen is no longer the same as he was in the past. He is definitely not your opponent, Senior Brother Yun. Why bother to fight him? Why not give me this opportunity? If I win, it proves that he does not have the strength to fight you. If I lose, it will not be too late for you to take action later."
The young man in black said with a smile.
The battle between Ling Chen and Yun Tianhe has become known to everyone in the Shenyi Sect. Three days later, even many important figures from other forces will come to watch the battle. If he can defeat Ling Chen in the duel three days later, he will be able to replace Ling Chen's position as one of the four talented disciples and become famous in one battle.
The young man in black thought that he was no match for Yun Tianhe, Xiao Muyu, or Gu Lingfeng. Only Ling Chen was now much weaker than before, and this was a great opportunity for him to defeat his opponent and become famous.
"Well, since you are so persistent, I am not incapable of helping you. I will give you a chance when the time comes."
Yun Tianhe nodded and agreed. Of course, he didn't really want to help the other party, but he wanted the black-clothed boy to help him test Ling Chen's background first. Regardless of winning or losing, he would only gain and not lose.
"But whether Ling Chen is willing to accept the challenge at that time is hard to say. I can't guarantee that he will accept your challenge."
"Don't worry, he will definitely accept the fight."
The young man in black is full of confidence.
"It seems that Junior Brother Zhao is very confident. But I have to warn you that Ling Chen is not as easy to deal with as you might think. Even Junior Brother Feng Chong died at his hands a month ago."
Yun Tianhe reminded.
"Feng Chong?" The young man in black was stunned for a moment, then he sneered, "I think Feng Chong probably underestimated his enemy, otherwise with Ling Chen's strength, how could he kill him? I don't believe that a person with damaged meridians can cause such a big storm."
"Besides, I, Zhao Wuxiu, am not an ordinary person. I became a disciple of Master Qianmo Ke when I was thirteen years old. For more than three years, I have traveled around the world with him, to the prairie, the desert, and the ancient kingdom of Loulan. I have experienced training at the ends of the earth. I am not comparable to ordinary disciples of other sects."
"My cultivation is only one step away from breaking through to the ninth level, while Ling Chen is only at the sixth level at most. As long as I don't underestimate the enemy, what can he use to fight me?"
Zhao Wuxiu talked freely and was not worried at all about the battle between him and Ling Chen.
"That's true. Even if I face you, I can't guarantee victory. But I have a condition. As long as you agree, there will be no problem with this matter." Yun Tianhe suddenly said with a gleam in his eyes.
"What conditions?" Zhao Wuxiu also narrowed his eyes, looking as if he was listening attentively.
"You must kill Ling Chen on the fighting stage."
There was a fierce light in Yun Tianhe's eyes.
"Kill Ling Chen? This..." Zhao Wuxiu hesitated a little. After all, Ling Chen was not an ordinary disciple who could be killed at will.
“Don’t worry, no one in the sect cares about Ling Chen’s life or death. If you kill him, no one will hold you responsible.” Yun Tianhe stared at Zhao Wuxiu, his eyes motionless. “I only have this one request. If you can’t agree, then let’s forget about it. I’m afraid you’ll never get the title of one of the four genius disciples in this lifetime.”
Yun Tianhe's face was full of regret.
"Okay, I promise."
Zhao Wuxiu gritted his teeth and revealed a hint of murderous intent on his face. If he wanted to accomplish great things, he would inevitably have to be ruthless . Ling Chen, I'm sorry.
