Lu Chen slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air with a faint smell of blood, and jumped up from the ground.
He clenched his fists and felt the black black True Qi running like a river in his body, which was many times more powerful than before, as well as the meridians and body that had become tougher after being nourished by the new power. He felt an unprecedented sense of power in his heart.
Meridian Opening mid-level!
One break and then stand between life and death was better than his months of hard training.
He turned around and looked at Yang Xiong, who was holding a spear and had a pale face but full of joy in his eyes. His eyes no longer had the usual indifference, but instead had a real solemnity.
"Brother Yang, thank you very much." Lu Chen said solemnly, "Lu will remember this kindness."
This sound from Brother Yang made Yang Xiong feel flattered. He quickly waved his hands, clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Banner Sergeant is serious! If it hadn't been for Banner Sergeant, we would have been dead bones in the grave. All the actions of my subordinates are within their scope!"
His attitude was more respectful than before.
This is not only because Lu Chen saved their lives, but also because after witnessing that incredible breakthrough, the true awe of the strong was born in their hearts.
Wang Teng on the side also came closer timidly at this moment. He did not dare to look directly into Lu Chen's eyes as deep as the abyss. He just lowered his head and said, "Lu... Lu Banner Sergeant's divine power..."
Lu Chen glanced at him lightly and said nothing more.
He walked to the altar and collected all the Rebirth Hall and Storage Bag that had been confiscated before, as well as the most important body of Judge.
Then, he counted out the Spirit Stone, elixirs, talismans and other regular Cultivation Resources among the ordinary members Storage Bag and divided them into three parts.
He pushed two of the larger ones in front of Yang Xiong and Wang Teng, and said calmly, "This trip is dangerous, and the two of you are indispensable. You deserve this. As for Judge The matter of and the matter of Blood Sacrifice Array are of great importance and are far beyond the ability of Non-Self and others to handle. They must be handed over to Captain Li for final decision."
These words were reasonable and reasonable. They distributed the spoils and found a perfect excuse for themselves to take the most important part.
Yang Xiong had no objection at all. He knew that it was a great blessing to be able to get these alive. He gratefully accepted the resources.
Wang Teng looked at the pile of Spirit Stone and pills in front of him, greed flashed in his eyes, but as soon as he came into contact with Lu Chen's calm gaze, his heart felt cold, and he nodded and accepted it quickly, not daring to say anything nonsense.
"What are your plans next?" Lu Chen asked.
Yang Xiong pondered for a moment and said, "Banner Sergeant, Hidden Dragon Trial are not over yet. Wang Teng and I have hardly hunted monsters on this trip and have very few points. Now that this is over, we want to continue to go deeper and hunt some Demon Core to avoid poor results in the final evaluation."
Wang Teng also nodded in agreement.
The three of them reached a consensus unanimously.
The so-called Demon Emperor remnant soul thing is too dangerous and terrifying. Even Rebirth Hall Judge who is half-stepping Xiantian is so cautious. It is far beyond what Meridian Opening level warriors like them can plan.
Moreover, Blood Sacrifice Array has been destroyed, so the seal of Myriad Souls Cave may be more stable. Forcibly exploring it is tantamount to seeking death.
However, this consensus is exactly what Lu Chen wants.
He nodded and said smoothly, "You are right. I have just broken through, and my realm is not yet stable. I need to find a quiet room here to retreat for a few days to completely consolidate my cultivation. By the way... I will understand the gains from the battle with Judge. You go first, and we will meet at the exit at the end of the trial."
This reason is impeccable, whether it is to consolidate one's realm or to understand the gains from battle, it is a matter of course.
"Yes, Banner Sergeant!" Yang Xiong and Wang Teng bowed respectfully to him, and then stopped staying. After identifying the direction, they quickly left together, and their figures quickly disappeared into the depths of the dark passage.
In the huge underground dome, Lu Chen was the only one left in an instant.
There was deathly silence all around, and only the dim light emitted by the crystals on the dome stretched his shadow long.
He slowly turned around, and the calmness and indifference he had when facing Yang Xiong disappeared without a trace, replaced by a sharpness and heat like a predator.
His eyes were scorching towards the Myriad Souls Cave sealed sphere, which was huge, had cracks on its surface, and exuded endless resentment and ancient aura.
The corners of his mouth slowly curved into a cold and expectant arc.
What others see as a place of narrow escape, to him, is a great opportunity.
With its system, it originally needs to slay demons Longevity, and he must take this High Antiquity Demon Emperor.
It was confirmed that the auras of Yang Xiong and Wang Teng had completely disappeared outside the range of perception, and Lu Chen did not act immediately.
With a thought in his mind, several high-level talismans traded from Clerk Chen flew out and turned into streams of light, quietly blending into the shadows and rock walls of the cave entrance.
A set of composite talisman formations integrating alertness, concealment, and concealment was skillfully arranged by him.
After doing all this, he walked towards the huge mountain-like Myriad Souls Cave seal.
The closer you are, the more you can feel the vast soul pressure originating from High Antiquity.
On the surface of the sealed sphere, countless faces of resentful souls struggled and roared within it, but could not make any sound. And deep in the core of these resentful souls, there lurked an aura that was more terrifying, older, and like a sleeping king.
That is, Demon Emperor residual soul!
Lu Chen stretched out his hand, and from a few feet away, he could clearly feel the terror of that power.
If an ordinary Meridian Opening level warrior stood here, his soul would probably be crushed directly by this pressure.
But his soul has already reached the level of the same level due to the perfection of <Ten Thousand Year Black Tortoise Art>, and he is even immune to mental attacks.
In his mind, he issued the most direct instructions to the system in his body.
"The system directly absorbs this power."
[Warning! Ultra-high energy level soul aggregate detected!]
[The target's energy structure is extremely large and chaotic, containing High Antiquity Principle fragments and a collection of billions of resentments, which is too different from the host's current soul strength.]
[Forced direct absorption will cause the host soul to be exploded, polluted, assimilated, and ultimately completely collapsed within 0.01 seconds.]
[Absorption failure rate: 100%.]
The cold system prompt did not surprise Lu Chen.
If it could be absorbed so easily, the remnant soul of Demon Emperor would not have been suppressed for eternity, and it would not be his turn to take advantage of it.
His eyes didn't waver at all, this was part of his plan.
"System, change the order." His thoughts became clear and firm, "Based on all the information I currently have - including the knowledge about Blood Sacrifice Array obtained from the memory of Judge through [Soul Devour], about The weak point information of the Myriad Souls Cave seal, my own perfect <Ten Thousand Year Black Tortoise Art> characteristics, and the Demon Core of the Underground Blood Demon Spider - based on this, I was deduced a set of plans to safely and efficiently absorb the energy of the residual soul of Demon Emperor!"
This is the real and most advanced use of Gold Finger!
