Then he had to recover from his injuries as soon as possible and refine the Demon Qi in his body. Only then would he have a chance to escape from the old man's clutches … But after he escaped, he would probably be wanted by the Lan City Warrior's Guild again. What a headache!
As time passed, the old man seemed to be very patient. He did not care about the time Xiao Chen needed to recover. It seemed that this was the only way to give Xiao Chen psychological pressure and force Xiao Chen to tell the truth.
However, this gave Xiao Chen time to recover. The old man probably did not expect Xiao Chen's self-healing ability to be so strong. If it was an ordinary cultivator, they would only be able to regulate their breathing and suppress their injuries. It was absolutely impossible for them to fully recover.
It was probably because of this that the old man ignored Xiao Chen.
Finally, Xiao Chen's internal injuries were completely healed. However, he did not stop and continued to dissolve the Demon Qi in his body! The Demon Qi that the old man had injected into his body was thick and violent. It was even more ferocious than Leng Youxiang's. However, once it was dissolved and turned into Yuan Qi, the increase in Xiao Chen's strength was very significant!
With the help of the Spiritual Jade, Xiao Chen felt that his strength was constantly increasing. He had a faint feeling that he was about to break through the barrier! But how was this possible?
A few days ago, Xiao Chen had just broken through the barrier of the peak of the 7th level of the Qi Refining Stage and stepped into the 8th level. Even though he was now at the peak of the 8th level, he still did not dare to believe that he could immediately enter the 9th level.
However, the truth was right in front of him. Xiao Chen felt that after the demonic aura was dissolved, the Primordial Qi was colliding with his barrier again and again with the help of the Spirit Jade. The originally indestructible barrier actually had a tiny crack!
Seeing this, Xiao Chen was both surprised and happy. If he could successfully break through this time, he would definitely have the strength to fight against this old man! Thinking of this, Xiao Chen could not help but speed up the circulation of the mantra, speeding up the transformation of the Demon Qi.
The transformation of demonic energy was a very painful process. The faster the process, the more painful it was. The demonic energy was not absorbed by the meridians. Instead, it was piled up together. This was a very dangerous and uncomfortable situation.
However, this was exactly the situation that Xiao Chen wanted. The little bits of Vital Qi accumulated into a mickle, continuously battering against the barrier, one after another … …
"Boom!"
Finally, after the Spiritual Jade shattered into powder, Xiao Chen successfully broke through the barrier and advanced to the 9th level of the Refinement Stage!
"Phew …" Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the old man not far away.
"Not bad, you do have some skills!" The old man saw that Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at him. At this moment, he opened his eyes as if he could see through Xiao Chen's movements at any time. He said slowly, "Being able to suppress my Demon Qi in such a short period of time, you really do have some skills!"
Of course, the old man only thought that Xiao Chen suppressed the Demon Qi. He would not believe that Xiao Chen could refine the Demon Qi and use it for his own use. If he could not do it, how could Xiao Chen do it?
"We have no enmity between us, and I have already told you what you asked me. This Spiritual Jade is really for my cultivation, but you don't believe me." Xiao Chen said with a bitter smile.
"Hmph, you better think carefully before you speak. Your life is in my hands now. I can kill you at any time." The old man's face was a little ugly. He did not expect that Xiao Chen would dare to not tell the truth at this time.
"I am very clear about this." Xiao Chen nodded and said, "But I really did not lie to you."
"Good, in that case, I will fulfill your wish!" A sharp glint flashed in the old man's eyes as he stared at Xiao Chen and suddenly made his move …
Xiao Chen did not dodge at this moment. He faced the blade head on and rushed towards the old man. He secretly circulated the mantra in his heart and activated the tenth form of the Dark Flame Palm that he had never used before!
The old man only wanted to teach Xiao Chen a lesson, so he did not use his full strength. However, Xiao Chen went all out! In fact, when the old man saw that Xiao Chen actually dared to clash head-on with him, a disdainful smile appeared on his face.
"Boom — Boom —"
Two loud sounds rang out. Xiao Chen was hit by the old man's fist, and the old man was hit by Xiao Chen's palm!
In the next moment, both of them flew out at the same time. Xiao Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, but at the same time, the old man also spat out blood! He looked at Xiao Chen who flew in the distance in horror. He was a little surprised and a little confused!
The power of this palm made him feel that Xiao Chen had the strength of a Stage Ten Inner Force master! Of course, this was actually an illusion. Xiao Chen's palm was at most comparable to a Stage Ten Inner Force master. It was not even at the peak, let alone the Stage Ten Inner Force master.
After all, Xiao Chen had just broken through and his strength had not stabilized yet. It was purely a stretch for him to activate the tenth form.
It was just that he was not prepared, so the power was infinitely amplified. In his opinion, only a master of Stage Ten Inner Force master could beat him up like this.
Xiao Chen quickly healed his internal injuries, but the old man obviously could not. He could only suppress his own injuries. The two of them stared at each other at the same time. Their hearts were secretly vigilant, but neither of them moved.
Both of them were healing, so it was only a matter of who could move faster. Obviously, this person was Xiao Chen. Although the old man was stronger, he might not be able to suppress his injuries as well as Xiao Chen's healing.
Xiao Chen stood up and walked toward the old man step by step. The old man's eyes were filled with incomparable fear. He had never thought that a half-step martial master like him would be beaten by a martial artist.
"How is this possible? How are you fine? You took two of my attacks in a row. How is it possible that you are completely fine? " The old man looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief. Judging from his state, he was not injured at all.
"Old man, I already said that we have no enmity between us. I told you everything you asked, but why don't you believe me?" Xiao Chen was just threatening him. He did not really want to take this opportunity to kill the old man. Otherwise, the hatred would be too inexplicable. He did not even know who the other party was.
"Are you really using it for cultivation?" The old man asked.
"Yes, I was at the peak of Stage Nine Internal Force. You can see that, right?" Xiao Chen asked.
"That's right!" The old man nodded. This was the truth. He was still wondering how Xiao Chen broke through in the blink of an eye.
"That's why I almost broke through. Then, I just used the spiritual jade that I just bought to complete the breakthrough. Now, I'm at Stage Ten Internal Force!" Xiao Chen said, "Although this thing is expensive and the effect is slow, why wouldn't I buy it when others are paying for it? Moreover, I can't find other better materials for cultivation, so I can only use this. "
As Xiao Chen spoke, he reached into his pocket and took out the pile of broken jade powder. He sprinkled it in front of the old man.
Although there was no energy in it, there were some parts that were not completely broken. It could still be vaguely seen that this was the spiritual jade from before.
Looking at the broken jade in front of him, the old man had no choice but to believe what Xiao Chen said. He was a little speechless. "Is that really the case? Then you really have money to burn. With this money, you can buy a lot of other cultivation resources! "
In his opinion, Xiao Chen was only a step away from breaking through. That was why he used the spiritual jade to help him break through. Because he had also used spiritual jade before, the effect was very weak. It was basically negligible.
"I already said that others are paying for it." Xiao Chen shrugged. "And I'm used to it. Do you have any?"
"No, you're not weak. How about we cooperate? If you agree, you can get a lot of spiritual jade. " The old man suddenly spoke. Even his attitude towards Xiao Chen had changed from the haughty attitude from before to a more equal one!
Stage Ten Internal Force was equivalent to the Great Circle of Stage Ten Internal Force. It was enough to hurt a half-step Martial Master like him. An expert of this level was similar to him!
Although he was a half-step Martial Master, he had not become a Martial Master. It could only be said that he had touched the threshold and was slightly stronger than an ordinary Great Circle of Stage Ten Internal Force.
"Cooperate? What kind of cooperation? "Xiao Chen was slightly stunned.
"Eh?" The old man did not continue. Instead, he looked at White Fox carefully. After a while, he suddenly said, "White Fox, White Fox … I'm Clayden!"
"Pfft … Cough, cough, cough!" Xiao Chen almost spat when he heard that. Clayden? Wasn't that the one who issued the mission to look for him to explore the ancient ruins? Why was he here?
Clayden was also a little embarrassed. He did not expect the person in front of him to be White Fox! He had felt that White Fox's name was very familiar, but he did not think too much about it. After all, White Fox could not be from Lan City. It was from Songning. Moreover, he did not remember the name White Fox very clearly. He had only added him as a friend on the Warrior Guild's app.
He was a little puzzled that White Fox wanted so many spiritual jade, but it was not convenient to ask on the app! He had used spiritual jade before, but the effect was not very good. After he came out of seclusion, he had planned to buy a piece of spiritual jade at the antique market to see what was so special about it.
However, when he went in, he found one. When he asked about the price, it was too expensive. He felt that it was not worth it, so he decided to go to another shop. In the end, he saw Xiao Chen and Tan Jita coming in and buying the spiritual jade.
He followed them out curiously and saw what had happened. He felt that there was something strange about Xiao Chen, so he brought him here to ask. He did not expect this person to be the White Fox who wanted to explore the ancient ruins with them. No wonder he was wearing a fox mask.
"You want the Spirit Jades from the Primordial Relic for cultivation?" Clayden asked.
"Yes, what else can I use it for? It's not like I can eat it," Xiao Chen said. "I just feel that it's safer to use spiritual jade for cultivation. Many a little makes a mickle!"
"Alright, you have the money. Do whatever you want." Clayden was speechless, but he did not ask further. After all, White Fox's strength was similar to his. If he asked too much and attacked him, he would be in trouble.
He had not recovered from his injuries yet!
