Chapter 156: Burning Life
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Zonghai!”
Yu Yanyan looked at Sun Zonghai in disbelief. Her face revealed a desolate expression as she fell to the ground.
Sun Zonghai didn’t listen to Yu Yanyan. He didn’t even have the thought of capturing Guo Linshan to threaten Chen Fei. This was because Sun Zonghai did not know the purpose of Chen Fei’s appearance, whether it was to save them or for the metal plates on the three of them.
Sun Zonghai didn’t dare to take the risk. Although Guo Linshan was on the verge of death, his willpower was extremely strong, and he still had some combat strength left. If he wanted to use Guo Linshan to threaten Chen Fei, he would have to spend some time. In that time, Chen Fei would have caught up to him.
At that time, Sun Zonghai would have no chance at all.
“Trying to escape?”
Guo Linshan wanted to stop Sun Zonghai when he saw his movement, but he was injured by his internal organs. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and when his right foot moved, his body almost fell to the ground.
Chen Fei’s figure flashed past Yu Yanyan, and blood splattered from Yu Yanyan’s neck. Yu Yanyan did not look at Chen Fei but stared at Sun Zonghai and then fell to the ground.
When Sun Zonghai heard the commotion behind him, the blood in his entire body boiled, and he turned into a bloody shadow as he rushed forward.
Every step was a scene, and each scene was blood. He burned his blood, Qi, inner strength, and even his lifespan in exchange for extreme speed. In just a few steps, Sun Zonghai had crossed a hundred meters.
Chen Fei glanced at Guo Linshan and hesitated for a moment. He did not chase after Sun Zonghai.
With Sun Zonghai’s speed, Chen Fei would definitely be able to catch up to him, but it would take some time. Now, Guo Linshan was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
The concern was that when Chen Fei returned after killing Sun Zonghai, Guo Linshan might not be able to hold on till then. Moreover, the mystic realm was full of dangers. Even if Guo Linshan was persistant, it was difficult to guarantee that no other accidents would come.
Chen Fei paused for a moment before Sun Zonghai disappeared.
It had to be said that this technique was extremely powerful.
Although Chen Fei did not know what price he had to pay, from the tragic aura that he had emitted just now, it was likely that the side effects were severe.
If Sun Zonghai was willing to use such a move during the fight just now, Chen Fei would definitely not be able to defeat Yu Yanyan so easily. Unfortunately, Sun Zonghai was willing to flee, but he wasn’t decisive enough when it came to risking his life.
Chen Fei walked up to Guo Linshan and stuffed a healing pill into his mouth. At the same time, he applied the Golden Wound Medicine on Guo Linshan’s wound.
After dealing with the simple matters, Chen Fei walked in front of Yu Yanyan and took down the jade toekn and the bag behind her.
The disciples of the Sunken Water Pavilion were very emotional. They stared at Sun Zonghai’s back until their deaths. Even though Sun Zonghai had abandoned her, she did not scold him. Unfortunately, he didn’t entrust it to the right person.
“Senior Brother Guo, let’s go!”
Chen Fei helped Guo Linshan up, and his figure flickered as he disappeared from the spot.
Two hours later, Chen Fei brought Guo Linshan back to the cave. Chen Fei felt that this was the safest place. At least, nothing would disturb him during his cultivation for the next few days.
Guo Linshan had already fainted, but fortunately, his injuries had stabilized and did not worsen. At the same time, the Origin Connection Technique in Guo Linshan’s body was also circulating on its own to heal his injuries.
The vitality of a Visceral Tempering martial artist was actually extremely tenacious. From the outside to the inside, every part of his body had been tempered. Therefore, as long as it was not a fatal injury, with timely treatment, it would normally gradually improve.
The Origin Connection Technique, in particular, could connect internal and external energy, which was also very effective in healing injuries.
Chen Fei sat cross-legged and guarded by the side. Four hours later, Guo Linshan finally woke up.
As soon as he woke up, Guo Linshan immediately got up and looked around cautiously. He only relaxed when he saw Chen Fei. It was obvious that Guo Linshan had not recovered from the battle just now.
“Thank goodness you’re here.” Guo Linshan looked at Chen Fei and slowly leaned against the mountain wall, letting out a sigh of relief.
Guo Linshan really felt that he was dead. As for the Twin Stone’s reaction, Guo
Linshan did not notice it at all at that moment. All his attention was on Sun Zonghai and the other man.
“It means that you’re not destined to die!” Chen Fei handed the water bottle over and said with a smile.
“1 was just lucky, and I didn’t want to die, so 1 held my breath.”
Guo Linshan took the water bag, raised his head, and drank all the water in one go-
It was really too dangerous today. Guo Linshan could only blame himself for not recognizing people clearly and thought that Sun Zonghai and the other were just new acquaintances. He didn’t expect Sun Zonghai and Yu Yanyan to know each other long ago and were just waiting for the others to fall into their trap.
Chen Fei smiled and handed Guo Linshan’s parcel over. At the same time, he rummaged through Yu Yanyan’s bag.
There wasn’t much in Yu Yanyan’s bag, just a few herbs and some women’s belongings. Chen Fei took a glance and threw the package aside.
“Junior brother, take this jade token.”
Guo Linshan opened his bag and shook his head when he saw Yu Yanyan’s jade token inside. “My life was saved by you. How can I take this jade token?”
As Guo Linshan spoke, he threw the jade token to Chen Fei. Chen Fei caught it and looked at Guo Linshan’s expression. He knew that Guo Linshan was serious. Chen Fei nodded his head and did not decline. He put away the iron token.
“This is Thousand Rock Grass. 1 was here for this mystical ingredient.” Guo Linshan took out a medicinal herb from his bag and placed it in front of Chen Fei.
“Bone strengthening and blood regeneration. Senior Brother, you can directly consume it tomorrow. It will be beneficial to your injuries.”
Chen Fei looked at the Thousand Rock Grass. This was a rare spiritual ingredient, far from what ordinary medicinal herbs could compare to. However, compared to the Zhuhong fruit, the Thousand Rock Grass was slightly less valuable.
“It’s too wasteful to swallow it directly. If we take it back to the sect, we can exchange it for 6,000 contribution points.” Guo Linshan smiled and shook his head.
So many!” Chen Fei was a little surprised. Although it was a mystical ingredient, the Contribution Points it gave were quite shocking.
“Because this is the medicinal ingredient for refining the Aperture Breaking Pill, so the sect values it a lot.”
Guo Linshan looked at Chen Fei’s expression and explained, “Last time 1 told you about the mystic realm, there was one more thing 1 forgot to mention. If he really became a legacy disciple of the sect, the sect would actually give him an Aperture Breaking Pill. And this was the most important thing besides true inheritance.”
“The Aperture Breaking Pill can help you break through to the Aperture Tempering realm?”
Hearing the name of the medicinal pill, Chen Fei guessed.
“Right. When one cultivates to the peak of the Visceral Tempering realm and consumes the Aperture Breaking Pill, one can use the essence energy in the body to directly transform it into mental strength, allowing the mental strength to soar.”
” Yes.” Guo Linshan nodded and said, “We martial artists in the Body Tempering realm have weaker mental strength, so it’s extremely difficult to train our apertures. A single Aperture Breaking Pill could greatly increase the possibility of breaking through. That was why the Aperture Breaking Pill is so precious. The sect was willing to give so many contribution points for the mystical ingredients needed to refine the Aperture Breaking Pill.”
Chen Fei nodded slightly. There were actually such benefits after becoming a true disciple. Chen Fei thought of Ge Hongjie and the others. He reckoned that he could only rely on his own strength to try to break through.
“But senior brother, we shouldn’t think about contribution points at this time.
This Thousand Rock Grass can speed up your recovery, so it’s better to eat it directly.”
Chen Fei thought for a moment and advised. In this mystic realm, it was very dangerous to have injuries.
Although the cave looked safe now, other accidents might happen in the next second. Chen Fei insisted on using things that could be immediately converted into strength.
Guo Linshan pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. Looking at the Thousand Rock Grass in front of him, Guo Linshan waved his right hand. A small part of the Thousand Rock Grass fell into Guo Linshan’s hand, and the remaining half was pushed by Guo Linshan to Chen Fei.
“These are enough for me to heal my injuries.”
Guo Linshan looked up at Chen Fei and said with a smile, “Although the Thousand Rock Grass doesn’t help with the growth of inner strength, it can strengthen one’s bones and produce blood. It can increase one’s foundation and slightly increase one’s strength.”
Chen Fei was slightly stunned. He was about to speak when Guo Linshan waved his hand and said, “Your strength is already stronger than mine. This mystic realm has changed, so the stronger you are, the better. I still want you to take care of me.”
Guo Linshan smiled at the end of his sentence. He bit the Thousand Rock Grass in his hand and closed his eyes to heal his injuries.
The whole plant would have to wait until tomorrow, but it wouldn’t be a big problem if it was just this little bit.
Chen Fei knew Guo Linshan’s personality. He looked at the Thousand Rock Grass in his hand and hesitated for a moment before biting the Thousand Rock Grass and swallowing it.
A warm medicinal effect spread out from his stomach. The Thousand Rock Grass did not mutate and was considered normal. After a moment, Chen Fei opened his eyes and swallowed the remaining Thousand Rock Grass.
The medicinal power flowed through his limbs and continuously warmed Chen Fei’s body. A sense of relaxation that came from the bottom of his heart arose spontaneously. It felt a little similar to the feeling of refining the Zhuhong fruit, but it was also very different. It was difficult to describe it with words.
After an unknown period of time, Chen Fei opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
Chen Fei looked at the interface, and his expression could not help but change slightly. The value of his inner strength did not increase, but the limit required to break through to the Visceral Tempering realm had decreased by a large margin.
The fifth level of the Origin Connection Technique also had the ability to lower the upper limit of a breakthrough. The effect of the Thousand Rock Grass was even more obvious, as if it had increased Chen Fei’s Innate Ability.
Originally, after refining the Zhuhong fruit, Chen Fei’s Marrow Tempering realm progress was 45%. Now that the upper limit of breaking through had been lowered, it was 55% and above, which indirectly increased Chen Fei’s cultivation.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Guo Linshan’s injuries were finally fully recovered.
It was already the tenth day after entering this Mystic Realm. Chen Fei had already discovered that the jade token’s senses had suddenly increased by a notch today. It was only at this moment that Guo Linshan was shocked to realize that the iron plate actually had such a function.
“This direction seems to be that pool.”
Guo Linshan sensed the fluctuations coming from the iron plate. At this moment, a group of owners of the iron plate closest to them had gathered in one area. There were quite a number of them.
“Pool? Was there anything special about that place?” Chen Fei also sensed that a large number of jade tokens were gathering together.
“I heard from Sun Zonghai and the others that there’s a Dreamlike Lotus there,” Guo Linshan whispered.
“Dreamlike Lotus?” Chen Fei’s expression changed slightly. This was a mystical ingredient that could greatly aid in the use of Mental Energy.
Compared to other mystical ingredients that could help one’s inner strength cultivation, the true seeds actually hoped to obtain this kind of powerful mental strength because it would pave the way for the future aperture tempering realm.
Ten miles away, at a pond.
More than 20 people gathered together and looked at the pool in the distance. It was quiet there, and only the Dreamlike Lotus was swaying in the wind..
