Originally he would not let Wang Zhentian go, but when he saw the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast being knocked back by a single move, he changed his mind.
The inner elixir of the crystal-eating beast is a rare treasure. Killing this beast is undoubtedly a huge gain. Killing Wang Zhentian has no such benefits. What's more, Wang Zhentian has not yet reached the end of his life. If he really has to fight hard, Lu Chen himself
It doesn't feel good either.
So he decided to stay and deal with the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast.
The Crystal Eater was already covered in scars. Several sword wounds on its head and back could be seen with thick white bones, indicating that the injuries were serious.
Lu Chen suddenly raised his breath, concentrated all his profound energy on his fingers, and pointed at the wounds on the Crystal Eater's body.
The Crystal Eater roared again and again. It was already seriously injured, but Lu Chen's fierce attack caused its wounds to expand continuously, and blood flowed all over the floor.
Despite this, the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast is still very ferocious. This kind of monster is full of energy and has strong ability to continue fighting. It will not die for a while.
However, Lu Chen did not fight it head-on. He kept moving and dodging. When the crystal-eating beast attacked, he would defend. If the crystal-eating beast wanted to escape, he would pursue it.
As this consumption continued, the Crystal Eater's wounds became more and more serious, and with the loss of blood, its body showed obvious signs of weakness.
After a full hour, one person and one beast went back and forth, Lu Chen was exhausted from the torment, and the crystal-eating beast finally let out an unwilling roar and fell down.
There are still no fatal injuries on this monster beast, but Lu Chen's attack caused it to bleed non-stop, making it unable to heal, and in the end it bled to death.
Lu Chen let out a long breath. In order to kill this monster, his hands and feet became weak. Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain.
After resting for a while, Lu Chen began to dissect the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast and take out the inner elixir.
A bead as big as an egg was placed in his hand. In the darkness, this inner elixir gave off a crystal-like luster like jade, and its compelling aura seemed to have condensed the spiritual power of countless crystal stones.
This is due to the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast swallowing crystal stones for a long time, and its spiritual power is integrated into the inner elixir, and finally forms the extremely precious spirit beast essence.
The spirit beast essence is extremely special. Under normal circumstances, only the legendary top monsters can form such a spirit beast essence. However, the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast is a different species from heaven and earth. With only the strength of the innate realm, the spirit beast essence has already been completed.
The spiritual energy contained in the essence of the spirit beast is extremely sufficient and can be used as the purest crystal. However, it would be a waste if it is only used as a crystal for cultivation. Lu Chen plans to use it to refine elixirs.
After putting the spirit beast essence into his storage bag, Lu Chen was not in a hurry to leave the mine. Now that the danger had been lifted, he could wander around in it calmly.
Soon after, Lu Chen came to the deepest part of the mine, where the mid-grade crystal stone was found.
The quality of mid-grade crystals is naturally impossible to compare with the essence of spiritual beasts, but it is much stronger than low-grade crystals. When practicing with mid-grade crystals, the speed of practice is ten times faster.
Lu Chen's cultivation has always been based on ordinary herbs and ordinary elixirs refined by himself. There is a serious shortage of crystals. Now that he has discovered a storage place for medium-grade crystals, he will not let it go.
This is also an important reason not to chase Wang Zhentian. He wants to stay and refine these medium-grade crystal stones.
The spiritual energy here is much stronger than that in other parts of the mine, and this hole was dug by the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast. It has obviously not been discovered by anyone yet. If the news is leaked, these mid-grade crystal stones will not belong to him.
Lu Chen thought clearly and simply sealed the small hole and hid in it to practice alone.
Sufficient spiritual energy and mid-grade crystal stones made his cultivation speed suddenly increase. In just two hours, the spiritual power in Lu Chen's body reached the critical point. With a bang, a rushing air wave exploded in his body, and he
His profound energy cultivation was instantly raised to the eighth level of acquired life.
Even though his realm had improved, he still sat quietly on the ground with his five hearts pointing toward the sky, embracing Yuan Shouyi, and quickly refining the spiritual energy without worrying about the problem of being unable to digest the spiritual energy.
Now his physique has been greatly improved through the tempering of Aoki Dafa and medicinal baths. Even if there is sufficient spiritual energy, his physique can fully withstand it.
In this way, Lu Chen had been practicing non-stop, entering a state of selflessness, and the growth rate of his profound energy was terrifying.
Ten days have passed, and Lu Chen's profound energy has soared to the mid-eighth level of the day after tomorrow.
However, the momentum of growth still did not slow down, and after another ten days, Xuan Qi reached the late eighth level.
A month later, Lu Chen's profound energy made another major breakthrough, reaching the acquired ninth level.
Lu Chen stood up and moved his muscles a little. His whole body was filled with profound energy and his momentum was astonishing.
I have made great progress in my cultivation this month.
The physical body and profound energy have reached an unprecedented peak state. At this moment, the spiritual energy in the cave has been almost depleted. The spiritual power of all the middle-grade crystals has been directly absorbed and refined by Lu Chen. If he continues to practice here, he will have already.
no need.
If you want to take the final step and be promoted to an innate master, you still need more spiritual energy and time.
But now the spiritual energy has become thinner, and there is not enough time. The Shifeng City martial arts tournament will start in two days.
This is a great opportunity for Lu Chen to enter the Nebula Sect, and of course he cannot miss it.
During the month Lu Chen was immersed in cultivation, many changes occurred outside.
News of Sun Pengcheng's death has spread throughout Shifeng City. This seeded player who had a chance to win the first place in the competition died inexplicably in the mine, causing shock to the Sun family.
At this moment, the Sun family was in the lobby. The head of the Sun family was losing his temper. Standing next to him was Wang Zhentian, who looked unhappy.
"what is going on?
Wang Zhentian, I asked you to assassinate Lu Chen, but you caused my son to lose his life?"
The head of the Sun family asked Wang Zhentian rudely.
Originally, Wang Zhentian was an important guest in the Sun family. Even the head of the family was polite to him. But now that something like this happened, he could only admit that he was unlucky and said with a sad face: "The news was wrong. Originally we thought that the mine
Hidden inside is a colorful tiger, who knew it was an innate-level monster. When I was dealing with the monster, that guy Lu Chen attacked the eldest young master, and there was nothing I could do."
Wang Zhentian added fuel and jealousy and put all the blame on Lu Chen.
The head of the Sun family was so angry that his face was livid, his hands were rattling, and he said in a cold tone: "Lu Chen, it's Lu Chen again. Last time I shot Wu Rong and crippled him, that kid was able to recover. Now my son
He died in his hands again, could he be the nemesis of our Sun family?"
"That kid is just lucky. Don't worry, Master, I guarantee with my head that I will kill that kid and avenge the eldest young master."
Wang Zhentian hurriedly expressed his position.
He was so active not because he really wanted to avenge Sun Pengcheng, but because he was thinking about Lu Chen's secret skills.
The head of the Sun family asked: "Have you found Lu Chen's whereabouts?"
Wang Zhentian shook his head and said with a strange look on his face: "I don't know where the kid is hiding. No one saw the kid come out at all. I took people to search the mine many times and couldn't even find the shadow. I
I wonder if that kid is hiding somewhere."
The place where Lu Chen practices and meditates is secret to begin with, not to mention that he has already blocked the medium-grade crystal mine, so of course others cannot find him.
"No matter where he is hiding, I have to find him. No matter what, Lu Chen must not be allowed to appear in the martial arts competition the day after tomorrow, otherwise it will be a disaster for our entire Sun family."
The head of the Sun family looked serious, with a cold flash in his eyes.
He understood that if Lu Chen appeared in the martial arts competition, he would definitely win the first place and become an inner disciple of the Nebula Sect.
If Lu Chen were to be touched at that time, there would be no chance.
On the other hand, if Lu Chen succeeded in practicing in the Nebula Sect and came to take revenge on them, they would definitely not be able to resist him.
"Okay, I will send people to closely monitor the mines and the inside and outside of Shi Feng City. Once Lu Chen appears, I will kill him personally and never let down the trust of the family master."
Wang Zhentian said swornly.
When Lu Chen walked out of the mine, many miners cheered loudly.
"Brother Lu, you've come out. Where have you been hiding for so many days? One or two hundred of us have been looking for you for more than half a month, but we haven't seen you."
said a miner.
Lu Chen smiled and said: "I had a big fight with the colorful tiger and was seriously injured. I hid in a small cave and was in a coma for half a month. I finally recovered from my injuries."
Naturally, it was impossible for him to tell the truth.
Everyone was amazed and said: "Brother Lu, you are a lucky person. If you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future."
Lu Chen smiled and nodded.
A miner said: "Brother Lu, Su Xuan has been looking for you for a month. He has searched inside and outside the cave. He is almost dying of panic. You are still in the cave and you haven't come out yet."
"oh?"
Lu Chen thought that Su Xuan must be really anxious when he thought that he hadn't come out for so many days, "I'll go find him again."
As he said that, he turned around and went back into the mine.
Unexpectedly, a cold voice came from outside: "Lu Chen, long time no see."
When Lu Chen heard this voice, he couldn't help but frown. The person who came was none other than Wang Zhentian.
"Are you so patient that you stayed at the entrance of the cave for a month?"
Lu Chen turned around and looked at Wang Zhentian walking from a distance.
Wang Zhentian had a satisfied smile on his face. He had been waiting nearby. As soon as he heard the news, he rushed over at an urgent speed and finally caught him. At this time, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I've been waiting for you for a long time.
Thank you for your hard work, boy, you dare to kill the eldest son of the Sun family, you are really smart, I admire you very much."
Everyone was in an uproar, and everyone looked at Lu Chen in surprise.
Everyone knows how arrogant and domineering the Sun family is, and no one has a good impression of the Sun family, but they never dare to provoke them. However, Lu Chen dared to kill Young Master Sun, which was tantamount to waging war against the Sun family.
"Old man Wang, you are framing me again. You obviously killed Master Sun. You covet the Sun family's treasures and you still blame me?"
Lu Chen laughed and immediately framed Wang Zhentian.
Everyone was confused and stared at Wang Zhentian again, talking about it one after another.
"Yes, Brother Lu dared not kill Master Sun. Maybe it was really this man named Wang who did it and framed Brother Lu."
"Yes, that's right. I remember that day, the man named Wang obviously went into the mine with Master Sun. If Brother Lu really wanted to kill Master Sun, there was no way that the man named Wang would ignore him."
Everyone kept their voices low, but with Lu Chen and Wang Zhentian's cultivation, they naturally heard these discussions.
Things became confusing for a while, with some suspecting that it was Lu Chen who did it, while others thought that it was Wang Zhentian who did it.
Little did they know that Sun Pengcheng's death had nothing to do with either of them, but was caused by the blue-eyed crystal-eating beast.
Wang Zhentian was on guard. Originally, his purpose was to anger Lu Chen, but Lu Chen could not treat Lu Chen as an ordinary person and defused his verbal offensive with an understatement.
