Chapter 25 Pregnant Sword Qi
Slowly, while watching the battle, Ling Chen closed his eyes. In his mind, the only thing left was the posture of Feng Piaoling swinging the sword and the trajectory of the sword energy.
At this moment, the Lingtian Sword Sutra began to operate involuntarily.
Buzz buzz buzz...
The long sword at Ling Chen's waist, and even Xu Ruoyan's sword, began to tremble slightly.
"Um?"
Xu Ruoyan felt the trembling sword and looked at Ling Chen beside her in surprise.
Ling Chen closed his eyes tightly, his mind focused, as if he was asleep, but a faint and sharp aura could be sensed from him.
"This is?"
The surprise in Xu Ruoyan's beautiful eyes grew stronger. Ling Chen's aura was extremely strong at this moment, giving people a feeling of being unfathomable.
It's like a sword, sometimes sharp, sometimes restrained.
"Isn't that a person who has gone crazy?"
Xu Ruoyan was a little worried. Ling Chen now looked very much like someone who had gone astray.
Swish!
Suddenly, Ling Chen opened his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"So this is the essence of the external sword energy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Chen suddenly pulled out the sword from the scabbard, turned it around, and suddenly swung it forward.
laugh!
A crescent-shaped sword energy, with a layer of light golden ripples, passed through the air and dissipated .
"Although the distance is a bit short, I believe that with more practice, there should be a lot of room for improvement."
Ling Chen looked reluctantly satisfied.
"Is this... external sword energy?"
Xu Ruoyan widened her eyes. Even with her calmness, she found it hard to believe what she was seeing.
Ling Chen, a mere warrior, could actually emit sword energy. Wasn't this a privilege only enjoyed by swordsmen at the martial arts master level? How on earth did this guy do it?
Just when Xu Ruoyan was about to ask a question, Ling Chen suddenly sat down cross-legged on the ground. At this time, because of the breakthrough in his martial arts just now, the magic ape blood in his dantian also spread out with the flow of true energy.
The Lingtian Sword Sutra successfully broke through to the second level of "Pregnant Sword Qi". This means that Ling Chen does not need to break through to the martial artist level to be able to emit sword energy, and the power of the sword energy is even stronger.
After all, that was the sword energy condensed by Ling Tian's true qi.
At this moment, Ling Chen did not have the energy to indulge in the joy of his breakthrough. The power of the Demon Ape's blood essence was already somewhat out of control, causing a violent commotion in his Dantian.
The violent factors in the essence and blood also erupted. If not controlled properly, it would definitely cause a terrible backlash.
The rampage state that didn't appear last time might appear this time.
The aura on Ling Chen's body quickly changed from being fierce to violent.
"What's going on here?"
Xu Ruoyan was also surprised by Ling Chen's ever-changing aura. How many secrets did this man hide? It seemed that her nominal fiancé was not as simple as he seemed.
Being able to quickly recover from the state of complete loss of cultivation to the current state is probably impossible without some extraordinary means, and if such means are used, there will definitely be a corresponding price to pay.
It is impossible to predict what this person has done behind the scenes.
If she also lost all the support she had now, would she be able to achieve the same level as Ling Chen? How much could she bear?
Suddenly, Xu Ruoyan's heart, which seemed to be frozen, softened a little.
"Forget it, we can't just sit back and do nothing."
Xu Ruoyan sighed, then walked behind Ling Chen and sat down cross-legged. After forming a seal, she placed her pair of jade hands on Ling Chen's back.
Suddenly, a stream of icy energy entered Ling Chen's body from behind.
Inside Ling Chen's body, the magic ape's blood essence was like a ball of flame, constantly sending sparks to Ling Chen's meridians and various parts of his body, activating the violent factor in Ling Chen's body.
But after Xu Ruoyan's icy true energy entered, the raging flames in Ling Chen's body finally began to stabilize.
Xu Ruoyan's true energy seemed to have a soothing effect. It was extremely clear and could not only clear the violent power in Ling Chen's body, but it also seemed to be able to cleanse the dirt in his soul.
"Ling Chen, repeat after me."
Xu Ruoyan's very pleasant voice came to my ears.
"The five aggregates are empty, the mind is free from worries, neither dirty nor clean..."
Ling Chen calmed his mind and started reciting as well.
The effect of this spell was indeed very obvious, and with the help of Xu Ruoyan herself, the originally extremely violent aura began to stabilize after a few minutes.
The boiling blood of the demon ape also calmed down again.
At this moment, the eighth Qi ring has been successfully condensed in Ling Chen's Dantian.
While calming the blood of the demon ape, Ling Chen absorbed a lot of power from it. This immediately allowed him to advance from the peak of the seventh level of warrior to the eighth level.
"He actually took the opportunity to break through the realm."
Xu Ruoyan looked at Ling Chen strangely. In such a dangerous situation, Ling Chen could actually find an opportunity to break through. This guy was becoming more and more difficult to understand.
"Thank you for this time."
Ling Chen dusted himself off and bowed to Xu Ruoyan, "I didn't expect that under such a cold appearance, there is such a warm heart. It's really surprising."
"Don't be surprised. If it was anyone else, I wouldn't sit idly by either." Xu Ruoyan waved her jade hand. "But I have a question. What is that violent power in your body? With your cultivation level, it should be difficult to suppress this level of power. I advise you to be careful in the future, otherwise you won't be so lucky next time."
"Thank you for your advice. I know this."
Ling Chen naturally knew what was happening to his body, and he immediately continued, "But let's be honest, you helped me after all, and I, Ling Chen, am not someone who won't repay a favor. If you have any requests, just ask. As long as I can, I can agree to them."
"Can you agree to this as long as it is within your power?"
Xu Ruoyan's beautiful eyes moved around. Originally, she didn't intend to make any requests, but then she thought, wasn't she troubled by something related to Ye Xuan right now?
"I want to...cancel our engagement."
Xu Ruoyan thought about it and brought up the matter.
Ling Chen did not show any surprise at this. He just pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, we are not familiar with each other anyway. Three months later, I will go with you to Tianxu Palace and personally ask Palace Master Xu to cancel our engagement."
Ling Chen didn't want to owe anyone a favor , and marriage was not something that could be taken lightly. It would be extremely painful to spend a lifetime with someone you didn't get along with.
Xu Ruoyan didn't want to be entangled in an engagement, and Ling Chen would not let a marriage contract bind him.
Xu Ruoyan was a little stunned by Ling Chen's decisive decision. She originally thought that Ling Chen would refuse in every possible way and would be extremely reluctant to keep the engagement.
After all, she was very confident in her beauty. Moreover, she had the huge Tianxu Palace behind her, and Ling Chen could completely rely on her as a backer. In this way, she would not be able to convince her father unilaterally, and the engagement would be difficult to cancel.
But this guy agreed so easily.
Is this engagement so unattractive?
"The battle is about to end."
At this moment, Ling Chen's voice interrupted her thoughts, and she saw that the confrontation on the fighting stage was nearing its end.
