Chapter 41 Back to the top!
"It is rumored that the Fourth Prince is ruthless and loves women. Today I see that he is indeed true. Judging from his expression, I am afraid he will not give up."
At this time, Xiao Muyu also came over. She had a general understanding of the personalities of the princes and princesses of the Wind Kingdom.
"If he is a smart man, he should stop here. Otherwise, the chances of the fourth prince ascending the throne in the future will be very small."
Ling Chen said calmly.
He himself has no background, but Xiao Muyu and Xu Ruoyan, one is the daughter of the Xiao family, and the other is the jewel in the crown of Tianxu Palace. The Fourth Prince can't afford to offend them at all. If the Fourth Prince is a smart man, he should thank him for stopping it in time.
"Ling Chen, who told you to act on your own and be rude to me?"
Xu Ruoyan was still upset about Ling Chen putting a necklace on her. This guy actually did such an excessive thing without her permission.
"I'm just helping you get rid of the flies. If I were you, I would at least say thank you now."
Ling Chen knew the arrogant nature of this young lady, and it would be strange if she didn't come to settle the score with him.
"Whoever wants your gift, take it back."
Xu Ruoyan was about to take off the necklace and return it to Ling Chen.
"There is no reason for me, Ling Chen, to take back the things I give away. If you don't want them, just throw them away."
Ling Chen did not go to answer it, but continued walking forward.
"Junior Sister Xu, this is Ling Chen's gift, you should cherish it."
Xiao Muyu also smiled at Xu Ruoyan, and then followed.
"Just consider it as compensation for this guy's crime."
Xu Ruoyan originally wanted to just throw it away, but then she changed her mind and thought that if she just threw it away, it would undoubtedly mean that she and Ling Chen would have a complete falling out, so she decided to just wear it for the time being.
Besides, Ling Chen was wrong, and the necklace was also wrong. It would be a pity to throw it away.
After the three of them strolled around the black market in Wucheng, they left Wucheng. They had to rush back to Shenyi Gate before dark.
After agreeing with Xiao Muyu to set off together in three days, Ling Chen also returned to Wuchen Courtyard.
The biggest gain from this trip to the black market was the red fruit. Secondly, he also bought some elixirs for cultivation. In addition, Ling Chen also bought a map of the Wang family hunting ground. Before participating in the autumn hunt, he had to at least understand the terrain of the hunting ground.
The royal hunting ground is very large, including hundreds of miles of mountains and forests, and is adjacent to the largest forest in the five countries - the Demon Forest. In it, there are many rare and exotic animals, among which there are some that can compete with powerful martial artists.
"Before that, you should first improve your cultivation to the ninth level."
Ling Chen took out the red fruit he bought from the black market. The surface of the red fruit reflected a bright light, looking extremely tempting.
He licked his lips, then opened his mouth wide and stuffed the red fruit directly into his mouth.
boom!
As soon as the red fruit entered his mouth, it melted instantly, and a rich sweet taste emanated from Ling Chen's mouth. Then, the warm and pure medicinal power, like a stream of water, poured into Ling Chen's body.
The power of the medicine was so strong that it caused Ling Chen's body to tremble slightly, and his lips were tightly pursed.
"It is indeed the Vermillion Fruit, a rare treasure in the world."
Ling Chen did not hesitate at all. He only put his ten fingers together and quickly changed his techniques in a dazzling manner. As his hand seals changed, streams of rich light golden true energy began to condense between his palms.
The true Qi almost enveloped Ling Chen's entire body. The power of that true Qi was far beyond what Ling Chen could achieve under normal circumstances.
As the medicinal power spread, a vortex-like air mass suddenly appeared at Ling Chen's dantian, and all the medicinal power released by the red fruit was absorbed by this air mass.
At this moment, his mind was completely focused on this, not daring to be distracted or careless in the slightest. Normally, when he was refining, he would mobilize the Qi that he could control, so even if he failed, it would not cause too much damage. But now it was different. The Qi from the Red Fruit made the Qi in Ling Chen's body reach a very powerful level. If the failure caused the Qi to backfire, it would probably cause Ling Chen a lot of trouble.
Buzz.
As Ling Chen concentrated his full attention, the vortex condensed faster and faster. Faintly, one could see that a vortex as big as a fist had finally condensed successfully.
This is the imprint of true qi condensed by the practice method of Lingtian Sword Sutra, which can accelerate the absorption of energy.
"Everyone, go in!"
A low roar suddenly burst out from Ling Chen's heart, and he used all his strength to activate the true energy in his body, which all poured into the vortex. The medicinal power that was scattered throughout his limbs and bones was all absorbed into his dantian. However, after the medicinal power poured into his dantian, he felt that the true energy that had been quiet originally became a little turbulent at this moment. A strange wave rippled in Ling Chen's heart.
Feeling this fluctuation, Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, and then an unconcealable surprise surged in his heart.
This is... a sign that the true energy is about to break through!
The true energy in the Dantian quickly gathered together, and a sound like a cry of joy rang out in Ling Chen's Dantian. In this cry of joy, Ling Chen could clearly feel that the true energy in his body was rapidly becoming more powerful!
This increase lasted for a while before gradually slowing down. The ninth Qi ring in Ling Chen's Dantian, which was like a star ring, finally condensed successfully.
In the room, Ling Chen opened his eyes, his thin and handsome face was filled with joy. He stretched out his hands, and strands of true energy surged up, the purity and strength of which were more than twice as strong as before.
Ling Chen grinned and slowly clenched his palms. In less than four months, he had recovered his cultivation to the peak period. If this matter were to be made public, it would probably cause another storm.
The lost cultivation was finally fully restored...
Ling Chen lay on the wooden bed, feeling the power filling his body. To be honest, when he lost all his strength at the bottom of the Soul Burial Cliff, the feeling was despair. It was the feeling of falling from the top of the mountain in an instant. If it were someone else, they would probably have lost their will long ago.
Fortunately, he has now recovered all his skills. No matter what means he used, he has finally returned to his previous position.
I believe if my father were still alive, he would be very relieved.
Thinking this in his heart, Ling Chen pushed open the window and looked up at the starry sky. It has been almost four months since the last change in the Divine Will Gate, but up to now, he has not made any substantial progress.
If my father were still alive, he would have shown up by now. Given his personality, he would not sit idly by and watch the current state of Shenyi Gate.
And there is his mother, Liu Xiling, the saint of the Holy Witch Cult and a giant in the magic world. She is now reviled by the righteous martial arts world, but she has never shown up once from beginning to end.
Is she still the kind mother? Or is this her true nature?
There are still too many unknowns to be found out.
In Ling Chen's opinion, there is no one in this world he can rely on, and he must improve his own strength in order to find out everything and change everything.
