Chapter 36: A Different World
A bloody hole appeared between Liu Chuanxiong's eyebrows, and white brain matter was vaguely visible. The next moment, his body fell down with a loud bang, and there was no sound anymore.
Kill with one finger!
Ling Chen was also somewhat emotional. Liu Chuanxiong, who had been so arrogant just now, was killed by Elder Lu Meng with just one finger in the blink of an eye. The gap in strength was indeed huge.
"You two were just doing a mission, how did you get into such a big trouble?"
Lu Meng floated down from the treetop, frowned, and looked at Ling Chen in a blaming manner.
"It's a long story."
Ling Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head, then turned his head to look at Xu Ruoyan beside him, "Elder Lu Meng, Xu Ruoyan is seriously injured, you should take her back to heal her first."
"Okay!" Lu Meng looked at Xu Ruoyan with an extremely distressed look and took Xu Ruoyan over.
"This girl is so badly injured. I have to take her away first," Lu Meng said anxiously, and then his eyes fell on Ling Chen. "Boy, how are you injured?"
"I'm not seriously injured. Elder Lu Meng, don't worry about me. Let's take her back to heal her."
Ling Chen said with a smile on his face.
"Well, take care of yourself."
Lu Meng picked up Xu Ruoyan, and his feet moved as fast as the wind, he stepped into the air and rushed in one direction.
After reaching the Grandmaster level, one will be able to fly in the air for a period of time. If one practices Qinggong, his speed will be much faster than that of warriors below the Grandmaster level.
This is also the reason why Ling Chen asked Lu Meng to take Xu Ruoyan away first. The latter was hit by the Ice-Breaking Palm. If the injury is not treated quickly, the consequences will be serious.
Phew.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, a trace of blood flowed out of the corner of Ling Chen's mouth. His injury was not as minor as he said. He was hit by the combined attack of two martial artists and a warrior. One of his ribs was broken and his injury was very serious.
Even so, Ling Chen did not say it in front of Lu Meng. The latter could only bring one person at most. Besides, he was not from Tianxu Palace, so the other party had no obligation to save him.
"We need to find a place to heal as soon as possible."
Ling Chen shook his head, then mobilized the remaining Qi in his body and rushed towards the cave from which he came.
…
Back in the cave, Ling Chen also sat down cross-legged, took a deep breath, and the true energy in his body began to circulate.
After taking a healing pill, the medicinal power immediately dissolved and, under Ling Chen's guidance, gathered towards the chest.
The first thing a warrior needs to do in his training is to strengthen his meridians. Among the many meridians, the heart meridian is the most important. Once the heart meridian is severed, the person will die.
He was in great danger this time, as the broken ribs almost pierced his heart, causing heavy bleeding in his chest. Although his meridians were sealed in time, this kind of injury could easily be fatal if not treated in time.
But what surprised Ling Chen was that after this injury, the magic ape blood in his body actually dissipated a little bit, but the violent power in it did not weaken at all.
Abundant power instantly filled Ling Chen's entire body, and even the pain from the wound was alleviated a lot.
"The power of this blood essence is extremely violent. First, repair the injuries on the body, and then refine it thoroughly."
With this decision, Ling Chen was neither hurried nor slow. He slowly closed his eyes and quietly adjusted his internal state.
After half a day, Ling Chen's injuries had mostly recovered.
After eating some dry food to fill his stomach, Ling Chen began to refine the magic ape's blood essence in his body.
A stream of Lingtian sword energy carrying a very sharp aura gushed out quickly, like a stream, continuously washing over the blood and essence of the black demon ape in the flesh and blood.
And with such a strong cleansing, the originally red blood of the demon ape actually began to become somewhat pure, and the violent aura in it was rapidly weakening.
Refining, under the miraculous effect of Ling Tian Zhen Qi, was somewhat smoother than Ling Chen had expected. However, even so, Ling Chen gradually felt a sense of impending exhaustion coming from his Dantian. Just when he was about to swallow the pill to support the refining, the traces of Dragon Ape blood essence in his body suddenly trembled slightly.
The dragon ape's blood essence covered the blood vessels, then seeped in bit by bit. In an instant, it merged with the blood in them and became one.
Ling Chen's eyes were also filled with scarlet blood at this moment, but he did not show any signs of irrationality as before. His blood-red eyes were still filled with calmness.
Feeling the huge power surging wildly in his body, Ling Chen's face also showed an ecstatic smile. He could feel that now, relying on this body alone, he might be able to compete with the strong men at the martial artist level. If he could use other means, he would have the confidence to fight head-on even against a martial artist of a higher level!
boom!
Ling Chen turned around and kicked out. Immediately, a large rock behind him was exploded into powder by his kick. Then he threw out a set of punches. Suddenly, the air in the cave exploded. The strong wind from his punches swept over the surrounding rocks, and the whole cave was shaken.
Ling Chen punched out, and the rocks inside the cave were shattered by this punch.
"happy!"
A hint of joy appeared on Ling Chen's face. If there were other people here, they would definitely be shocked. Is this a person who just got seriously injured? In such a short time, he could be so full of energy, as if nothing had happened.
He had already absorbed about 50% of the power of the demon ape's blood essence . Although he had not broken through to a higher realm, his strength had achieved a new breakthrough.
"I almost used too much force and collapsed the cave."
Ling Chen looked at the mess around him and smiled bitterly. However, when his gaze moved to the inside of the cave, he found a hole the size of a head behind the rock he had broken. A ray of light and a cool wind blew out from the inside of the hole.
"Is there something mysterious in this cave?"
Ling Chen was surprised, and then he made a prompt decision. He took two steps back, then circulated his true energy again and punched out fiercely, hitting the remaining stones continuously.
Bang bang bang!
The rocks shattered one after another, and then a larger space appeared in front of Ling Chen, four or five feet high, and more than ten feet long and wide, like a new cave.
Seeing this, Ling Chen's eyes lit up. Generally, this kind of cave is lost in such a small place because of the long time ago. Maybe it is some ancient relic. Of course, it may also be a tomb or something. It's hard to say.
The dangers in such places are often unpredictable.
However, Ling Chen had no worries. He took out a flint, lit a torch, and walked towards the interior of the cave.
