Under the electric light, Xiao Chen's hair all stood on end. Although he was not struck by the lightning, the air seemed to be filled with electricity. His skin already had a significant static reaction.
Not good! Xiao Chen thought to himself, The Lightning Ox's intelligence is actually so high. The lightning that seemed to be randomly fired out was actually following a certain pattern, gradually gathering together.
"Shua!"
In the sky, nine bolts of lightning as thick as an arm quickly gathered together. They were like five pillars supporting the heavens as they headed for Xiao Chen.
"Heavenly Lightning Shield!"
The speed of the lightning was too fast. Furthermore, it was gathering from all directions. Even if Xiao Chen's Movement Technique was exquisite, he would not be able to pass through it. Xiao Chen could only defend.
Chi chi chi chi …
When the nine huge lightning pillars collided with the Heavenly Lightning Shield, they gave off a 'zi zi' sound. The Heavenly Lightning Shield had the ability to absorb lightning. However, the strength of this lightning was too strong.
It did not last for long before it shattered with a 'pa' sound. The remaining lightning struck Xiao Chen's body. There was a 'pi li pa pa' sound on Xiao Chen's body. The clothes on the surface of Xiao Chen's body were all torn apart.
Xiao Chen's body was revealed to be filled with explosive muscles. The electricity continued to jump around on his skin.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Lightning Shield absorbed most of the electricity. The remaining might was still somewhat weakened. Xiao Chen did not receive any fatal injuries.
Xiao Chen endured the pain in his body and leaped into the air. He arrived beside the Lightning Ox. At this moment, the Lightning Ox had used its trump card. It was at its weakest.
After it recovered, it would take a lot more time to deal with it.
"Flight On Wings, Disordered Dance of a Thousand Years."
Xiao Chen's hands moved, changing the original sword move into a fist move. His figure flickered and the wind from his fist howled. In the blink of an eye, he had sent out more than a thousand punches around the Lightning Ox. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! " Every punch contained more than two thousand kilograms of force. When they landed on the purple body of the Lightning Ox, it cried out in pain. However, it could not do anything to Xiao Chen, who was moving around at high speed.
Die!
When the Disordered Dance of a Thousand Years was completed, Xiao Chen landed beside the Lightning Bull. The Fengyan Acupoint on his right palm opened, and the Blue Dragon inside transformed into a ball of cyan light, wrapping around Xiao Chen's entire right arm.
In an instant, Xiao Chen once again felt the feeling of his right hand being filled with power like yesterday.
With a bang, a series of crisp sounds rang out from within the Lightning Ox's body. All of its internal organs had been shattered and its huge body was sent flying back dozens of meters.
Black blood flowed out of the corner of its mouth. This Lightning Ox was dead.
Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged and slowly expelled the electricity in his body. The Qi whirlpool in his dantian spun rapidly. The surging Essence instantly squeezed or swallowed the electricity in his meridians.
After a while, Xiao Chen got up and changed his clothes. Then, he walked towards the Rank 6 Phoenix Blood Vine and carefully picked it. Then, he placed it in his Universe Ring.
After taking a look at the corpse of the Lightning Ox, Xiao Chen slowly walked over. He took out a small knife and started to dissect it. The corpse of a Rank 5 Spirit Beast was filled with treasures. Xiao Chen did not want to waste it.
This was especially so for the silver horn of the Lightning Ox. It should be several decades old. It had been tempered by electricity for a long time. It could be used to forge a lightning-attributed bone weapon. Its value was not lower than the Phoenix Blood Vine.
Xiao Chen took out a jade bottle and collected the blood. Then, he took out the Spirit Core and cut off the most delicious parts of the Lightning Ox's body. Only then did he leave in satisfaction.
Originally, he wanted to stay for a while longer and collect all the herbs in the surroundings. However, the earlier Battle Medicine had attracted the attention of the other Spirit Beasts.
It was relatively easy to deal with one Rank 5 Spirit Beast at a time. However, if there were many of them, it would be very dangerous. Furthermore, among the auras, Xiao Chen could feel the aura of a peak Rank 6 Spirit Beast.
That was a Spirit Beast guarding the center of the herb field. Earlier, Xiao Chen had checked the place with the densest Spiritual Energy in the entire herb field. There was a Flowing Light Marigold growing there.
The Flowing Light Marigold was an extremely precious Rank 7 Herb. Just one Flowing Light Leaf had the healing effects of a Rank 6 Medicinal Pill. Furthermore, there were several rare Medicinal Pills in the Compendium of Cultivation that required this leaf as a medicinal catalyst.
However, the most precious thing was the Flowing Light Flower. The Flowing Light Flower only bloomed once every eight hundred years. Just one petal was enough to increase a person's intelligence.
This was what cultivators referred to as comprehension ability. After consuming it, it would increase a cultivator's comprehension ability greatly. They would be able to comprehend Cultivation Techniques or Martial Techniques much faster than ordinary people. It could allow a person with mediocre talent to immediately become talented.
For example, Xiao Chen had yet to comprehend the highest realm of the Clear Wind Chop. If he consumed this Flowing Light Flower, he might be able to comprehend it immediately.
Of course, all of this could only be wishful thinking. Beside the Flowing Light Golden Lamp, there was a peak Rank 6 Spirit Beast guarding it all year round.
In the surroundings, there were several Sixth Rank Spiritual Beasts eyeing him. With so many Sixth Rank Spiritual Beasts, before Xiao Chen could even get close to them, he would probably die.
Recollecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen steered the silver warship away before the spirit beasts arrived. He stopped in front of a towering tree not far from the herb field.
The tree was several meters wide and towered into the clouds. Its branches were luxuriant, and Xiao Chen looked extremely small standing beneath it. There were many treasures in the herb field, and Xiao Chen did not plan on leaving.
He intended to use this place as his base of operations. Every once in a while, he would go to the herb field and cultivate there.
Taking out the Phoenix Blood Vine, Xiao Chen revealed a smile. This Phoenix Blood Vine should be at least a hundred years old. If he brought it to the market in the Heaven Viewing Platform, it would be worth at least sixty Inferior Grade Spirit Stones.
Taking out a sharp knife from the Universe Ring, Xiao Chen peeled off the Phoenix Blood Vine. Then, he cut off a small piece and placed it in his mouth. After chewing it a few times, he swallowed it.
The Phoenix Blood Vine instantly turned into a warm current that flowed into his body. The Qi and blood in his body surged. Xiao Chen felt like every cell in his body was burning, filled with energy.
Directly chewing natural treasures was very dangerous. Previously, when he consumed the Seven Leaf Flower and Seven Leaf Fruit, the timing was rather special. It was when his body was in dire need of energy, so he was not afraid.
However, this time was different. Xiao Chen's Qi and blood were already flourishing. If he directly consumed the entire Phoenix Blood Vine, his vigorous Qi and blood would immediately burn up. His body might even spontaneously combust.
Xiao Chen chewed the Phoenix Blood Vine piece by piece. When he had consumed a third of the Phoenix Blood Vine, he felt like his body was about to explode. So, he quickly stopped.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged and started to circulate his energy, completely refining this huge medicinal energy.
His Essence slowly flowed along the meridians in his body, catalyzing the medicinal energy of the Phoenix Blood Vine.
After half an hour, Xiao Chen finally finished refining this medicinal energy. He felt his blood boil like it was on fire, filled with energy.
Xiao Chen looked around and found a huge rock about one meter tall that he could encircle with both hands. He walked in front of it and casually punched it.
"Chi!" The hard rock was like mud. Xiao Chen directly punched through it before withdrawing his hand.
Xiao Chen revealed a faint smile, "Before I consumed the Phoenix Blood Vine, a casual punch would only have the strength of 1,500 kilograms. After I circulate my Qi, it can reach 4,000 kilograms. A full-powered punch can reach 2,500 kilograms.
"Now, I have only consumed a small portion of the Phoenix Blood Vine, and a casual punch can already reach 3,500 kilograms. If I were to consume the entire Phoenix Blood Vine, it would probably increase my previous strength by 500 kilograms. "
While he was thinking excitedly, Xiao Chen punched with all his might. A force of 2,500 kilograms struck the huge rock. The huge rock shattered into countless stone shards, flying in all directions.
Xiao Chen was stimulated by the Corpse Monarch that day. The physique that he had always been proud of was not worth mentioning in front of the Corpse Monarch.
To him, it was a form of humiliation. It made him have an intense and urgent desire for the strength of his physical body.
Now that he had such a good opportunity, he had to treasure it properly and continue tempering his physical body.
Most cultivators would not be like Xiao Chen, stubbornly cultivating their physical body. In their opinion, cultivation realm was the most important.
When one's cultivation realm was higher, one's Essence would naturally be stronger. If one's physical body could reach several thousand kilograms of force, one could do the same with strong Essence.
However, Xiao Chen did not think this way. He had a vague understanding that the cultivation of a cultivator was inseparable from the physical body. Only by cultivating the strength of the physical body to the peak would one be able to go further in the future.
Perhaps these people, like Ji Changkong, Mu Chengxue, Chu Chaoyun, Hua Yunfei, and Duanmuqing, were geniuses with innate Martial Spirits and incomparable talent.
Right now, their cultivation realm was rising very quickly. The highest was probably already a Medial Grade Martial Saint. However, in the future, they would surpass Martial King, then Martial Monarch, or the lucky ones would enter the Sage realm. Without a strong body, they would not be able to reach Emperor Wu's realm.
In the following two days, Xiao Chen practiced the Clear Wind Chop during the day. He comprehended the third stage of the Clear Wind Chop, only seeing the cool wind and not the saber. After practicing unceasingly, Xiao Chen's comprehension of the final stage of the Clear Wind Chop had already reached the threshold.
As long as he had a period of time, he would definitely be able to enter the next stage and enter the Great Perfection stage.
At night, Xiao Chen would continue to consume the Phoenix Blood Vine. After refining it, he would strengthen his Qi and blood and increase his Vital Qi.
On this particular day, Xiao Chen placed the last piece of the Phoenix Blood Vine into his mouth and chewed it gently. When he felt a warm flow, he immediately sat down cross-legged and started refining it.
Xiao Chen slowly circulated his Essence. When the last strand of Medicinal Energy from the Phoenix Blood Vine was completely refined, the Phoenix Blood Vine that had been fused with Xiao Chen's body for the past three days suddenly surged.
The Qi and blood in Xiao Chen's body surged continuously. Strands of white smoke came out from the top of Xiao Chen's head.
"Boom!" After a while, Xiao Chen felt the Qi and blood in his body explode. "Pa! Pa!
Pa! Pa! Pa! "
All the bones in Xiao Chen's body gave off crackling sounds. All 361 acupoints in his body opened up. Beams of azure light came from the acupoints.
If there was an outsider looking at Xiao Chen from afar, they would discover the image of a Blue Dragon coiled around Xiao Chen's body, wrapping around him.
This sudden situation did not surprise Xiao Chen. On the contrary, he felt it was somewhat familiar. It was as if he had experienced this scene ten thousand years ago.
