"Ugh... I really can't hold on anymore."
Behind Chu Chen, Shen Qian also finally reached her limit. The young girl's vision was a blur, and her body involuntarily went limp. Luckily, Chu Chen in front of her had sharp eyes and nimble hands and helped her up, preventing her from directly falling onto the scalding sand.
Although Shen Qian's combat strength was very formidable, just in terms of cultivation, she could practically be said to be the weakest among everyone.
A mere Ninth Level Spirit Water Realm strength. If not for Chu Chen's light in the Secret Medicine Realm, Shen Qian probably would not have been able to hold on long ago.
And the others endured until the end. They were practically all at the peak of the Tenth Level Spirit Water Realm cultivation.
Shen Qian was also somewhat depressed in her heart. She originally thought that the so-called trial was merely fighting a few rounds with people. In the end, the entire trial was testing a person's cultivation and endurance from head to toe. And this point just happened to be her shortcoming.
She only felt waves of intense exhaustion unceasingly assaulting her, to the extent that she was unable to think about the surrounding environment normally.
After being supported by Chu Chen, her body went limp and completely collapsed into Chu Chen's embrace, completely leaning on him.
"Hey, are you alright?"
Looking at the young girl's exhausted face, Chu Chen's heart stirred slightly, and he called out softly. But he saw that the young girl had no way of answering at all. Her entire body went limp, and she could not muster up a trace of strength anymore.
"You..
. "Chu Chen was helpless and could only lower his body slightly to let Shen Qian lean on his back. Then, he slowly carried her on his back.
"Brother, you're really capable. At this stage, you still have the strength to carry others. "
Not far in front of Chu Chen, that burly man was wiping the sweat on his forehead while panting heavily, trudging arduously on the sand with deep and shallow steps. A cultivator whose spiritual energy was depleted would leave a deep pit in the sand with a single step. They needed to use even greater strength to pull their feet out before they could take another step.
He was a peak Tenth Level Spirit Water Realm expert who was practically about to dig out the Void Spring. But right now, he felt exhausted to his limits. Seeing Chu Chen carrying a person on his back, he could not help but be speechless. "Looks like that brat Huangfu Yun didn't lose unjustly in your hands."
"It's okay. If I can't carry her anymore, I'll just throw her away."
"How dare you!" Shen Qian, who was in a daze, immediately warned him. She opened her big eyes angrily for a moment before she quickly closed them and fell into a deep sleep.
Chu Chen shook his head helplessly. "Everyone is holding back. We've already run 14,000 kilometers, we can't possibly stay here for the last 1,000 kilometers, right? "
"Hahaha, Brother Chu is right! Everyone, do your best! The Medicine Palace is right in front of us. We have already taken half a step in, so we can't drop the ball at the last moment. Let's use all of our strength and squeeze the other half of our feet in! "The big man laughed out loud and was full of heroic spirit.
Everyone forced themselves to continue their journey.
Everyone bitterly persevered and continued forward. However, the sun soon set … In the desert, the temperature difference between day and night was extremely large.
During the day, the sun shone down and the temperature was extremely high. However, everyone still had spiritual power to support their bodies at that time, so the cold and heat did not invade their bodies. Thus, they did not feel anything strange.
When night fell, the entire world suddenly became strangely cold. A gust of wind blew past, and they could clearly feel their bodies shivering. It was as if they had once again returned to the environment of the Secret Medicine Realm where they were both hungry and cold.
Amidst the cold wind, the group walked for another six hundred or so li. Everyone felt that they could not hold on any longer … At this point, even a few Void Spring Stage experts fell limp and sat on the ground, gasping for breath.
"There's still two hours left. We're almost there. Everyone, hold on."
Chu Chen realized that everyone's energy consumption was extremely high. Shen Qian's stomach, who was on his back, kept growling.
Thus, Chu Chen helplessly stopped and indicated for everyone to rest for a while. He opened his storage ring and took out pieces of golden barbecued meat.
"Everyone, quickly eat something. There's still two hours left. Everyone, save your energy and finish the last part of the journey within these two hours! "
At this moment, how could the hungry crowd resist the temptation of delicious food? Smelling the aroma of the meat in the air, they all rushed forward like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.
They snatched all the golden barbecued meat that Chu Chen had distributed. Of course, Chu Chen had left some for himself and Shen Qian in his storage ring.
"Brother Chu, what kind of meat is this?"
A disciple could not wait to stuff the golden barbecued meat into his mouth. Immediately, a hint of joy appeared on his face. This unknown meat was not only fragrant and delicious, but when it entered his stomach, he could actually feel his body surging with power. Furthermore, what was even more surprising was that even the qi sea in his dantian, which had been dried up for a long time, could produce a slight fluctuation of spiritual power!
"This barbecued meat can actually recover spiritual power!"
"This is simply god-level barbecued meat, life-saving barbecued meat. How did Brother Chu obtain this?"
Chu Chen smiled and did not speak. This "god-level barbecued meat" was the barbecued meat left over from the Snow Crane that he had killed in the Secret Medicine Realm. The Snow Crane's body was huge, and the meat on its body weighed at least a few thousand pounds. After he and Shen Qian ate a small portion, the rest of the Snow Crane Spirit Meat was thrown into the cave.
After the snowstorm in the Secret Medicine Realm had stopped, Chu Chen immediately discovered that the seal on his storage ring had been removed. He hurriedly put the Snow Crane Spirit Meat back into his storage ring. He did not expect that it would come in handy now.
The Snow Crane's meat was rich in spiritual power. Therefore, when it was eaten by the many disciples, they could feel their exhausted spiritual power begin to gather again.
Actually, Chu Chen also had a little bit of evil in his heart when he distributed the Snow Crane Spirit Meat to everyone. After all, if that harsh and old-fashioned elder found out that he had killed the spirit beast under the guide elder, he would probably teach him a good lesson.
And now … almost all the trial disciples had eaten the Snow Crane Spirit Meat. This way, when the guide elder acted up, he would have some people to take the "blame" for. After all, there was a saying, "The law cannot punish the majority"!
Uh, Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers, I actually did not want to frame you all …
Seeing everyone eat the Snow Crane Spirit Meat with smiles on their faces, the corners of Chu Chen's mouth curled up slightly.
After they finished distributing the barbecued meat, everyone's faces could not help but reveal a hint of joy … They had recovered some spiritual power in their bodies. Although it was far from being comparable to his peak state, it was enough to cover 400 li in the last two hours!
