"It's frustrating. This is my shrunken form. Although this form doesn't consume energy, it still feels like my body is being stuffed into a narrow tube. This feeling is uncomfortable. If it weren't for seeing you, I wouldn't transform into this form.
form."
"Then it's really an honor for me... Forget it, let's get down to business. Why are you looking for me?"
Ai Li is a boy after all. Although he was surprised by Lu Chen's appearance, he quickly got down to business and Lu Chen quickly got into the mood.
Without any false temptation, Lu Chen said directly:
"I need your thunder."
"Body training."
"It seems you know very well."
"Of course, our tribe is very good at both thunder and body refining. When it comes to using thunder to refining the body, our clan is the best. When I saw your thunder-devouring magical power, I knew that you had the thunder body refining."
ability.”
Both Avery and Lu Chen are concise people. In just a few words, Avery understood Lu Chen's appeal. After understanding, Lu Chen said directly:
"Now that you understand, you can propose a price and make a deal as long as I can afford it."
"You can bear it. If you want me to cooperate with you in training, you can, but you have to stop challenging Yunzhou."
These words made Lu Chen silent. After a breath, he shook his head directly: "No way, try another one."
A firm refusal left no room for maneuver. Before Avery could say anything in reply, the handsome young man could not help but speak:
"Why, do you like to undermine the self-confidence of Yunzhou people so much? Now is the time to fight evil spirits. By doing this, you are weakening..."
After glancing at the handsome young man, Lu Chen's cold voice rang out before he could finish his words.
"Fighting against evil spirits requires a strong will. If the Yunzhou warriors can be hit so easily, there is no need to fight against evil spirits. Just nurse the baby at home."
"you……!"
Lu Chen's words made the young man angry, but he couldn't find a way to refute.
Lu Chen didn't care about him and looked directly at Ai Li: "I can see that you have good intentions and want to gather the power of mankind to fight against evil spirits, but challenging the Yunzhou warriors can make me stronger, even if it really hits the Yunzhou warriors
, I won’t stop either.”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ai Li to recover, Lu Chen continued to speak: "If the soldiers of Shanyunzhou are defeated by me, it means that I am stronger than all the young people of Yunzhou. In the face of evil spirits, I am stronger than the entire Yunzhou."
It’s useful for every state.”
Let me reiterate again, this is a world where great power belongs to individuals. Therefore, if one person is extremely powerful, it is normal for him to rival a state.
As a strong man, Ai Li also knew these things, so he hesitated. Taking advantage of his moment of hesitation, Lu Chen continued:
"I can promise that I will not kill anyone unless absolutely necessary, and this battle is also a test of the will of those Yunzhou warriors. You know, they are evil, cunning and have weird abilities. This is for their own good, so,
Let’s change the conditions.”
This time, it was Eli's turn to be silent.
After a long time, he finally said: "Why are you so anxious to increase your strength?"
"The evil spirits didn't give us much time. I just want to clear the treacherous environment."
"Are you sure?"
With these words, Ai Li had already used the Tianchi Criminal Law to try Lu Chen.
But just as Lu Chen said, his rapid improvement in strength was indeed to clear the treacherous situation. Therefore, Lu Chen's answer was without any hesitation.
"Sure."
"In this case, I agree to cooperate."
"What about the price?"
"free."
"Um!?"
Seeing the shocked expression on Lu Chen's face for the first time, Avery laughed.
"Lin Ye asked me to say hello to you. I acted with Lin Ye for a while in Zhongzhou, but that is my home, so I did not act with Lin Ye."
Speaking of Lin Ye, Ai Li's face was gentle, and Lu Chen's hard face also had a hint of warmth. He was a truly kind man for mankind. Even thinking of him, Lu Chen's heart aroused confidence in mankind.
"Then I'll give you more advice from now on."
With Lu Chen and Ai Li holding hands together, their cooperation was confirmed.
In response to this, the Sanchi monk had been eating, and the Taoist priest with jade-like features didn't say anything. Only the handsome young man could not accept it.
Unlike the other three, he is a pure Yunzhou person, so he does not want Lu Chen to become stronger by humiliating the Yunzhou people.
"Besides provoking our Yunzhou, don't you have any other way to become stronger?"
Considering that the young master in front of him came here with the three of them, Lu Chen still replied: "Yes, but it's not as fast as this."
After finishing speaking, seeing that the young master wanted to refute, Lu Chen said directly: "When my strength increases, I will not only clean up the wild and strange lands, but I will also help clean up the strange lands in your Yunzhou. Do you think it's your soldiers who suffer the consequences?"
A good beating is more important, or clearing the treacherous environment is more important."
There is no need to say more about the importance. At this point, the young man can't refute it at all.
But just when Lu Chen thought the matter was about to end, the handsome young master suddenly said: "You said in Ancheng that you wanted to marry the most popular princess in Yunzhou. Is this true?"
After saying these words, the young man's face showed anxiety, and Ji Hongdie's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Regarding this, Lu Chen wanted to say directly that it was a lie. He said it just to anger the talents in Yunzhou. When he really comes to Yunzhou, he will find the most beautiful one.
However, I am afraid that the young master in front of me will tell the people of Yunzhou what he said. If the people of Yunzhou are no longer angry and stop challenging me, it will be troublesome.
What's more, Lu Chen quickly thought that the princess who wins everyone's favor is probably the most beautiful. After all, for most humans, beauty is justice, so Lu Chen nodded directly and said: "That's it."
These words made the young master in front of him think of something, and his face turned pale. But soon, he took a look at Lu Chen's current appearance and nodded shyly.
"I understand. I'll ask for your advice in the future, Your Highness."
After saying these words, the young master in front of him was no longer angry and arrogant. Instead, he knelt down on his seat and bowed deeply to Lu Chen. After eating and drinking, only Lu Chen dared to move his chopsticks.
.
This performance of surrender still made Lu Chen quite satisfied.
"Hongdie, you see, I also have the skill of talking. After a few words, I can directly make the enemy surrender."
Lu Chen was happy, while Ji Hongdie looked at the proud Lu Chen and opened her mouth to say something, but she thought that even if she was right, if her husband became angry again, she would not be able to bear it, so she could only swallow what she said in her heart.
"Yes, my husband is mighty."
"Haha, of course. If you are happy today, I will reward you well."
"Alas...Alas!??"
…
With the agreement with Ai Li established, Lu Chen no longer had any reason to stay in Qilian City.
After some tidying up, Lu Chen's mission set off in the afternoon.
"Why don't you leave tomorrow? It will take you a day to go to another big city. It's already afternoon. If you leave now, you will probably have to march at night."
"Isn't that better? Or do you think the evil spirits in the wilderness can threaten us?"
Looking at the strong barbarian army, Lan Ye didn't say the rest of his words.
In this way, under the leadership of Lu Chen, the barbarian delegation headed towards another large city in Yunzhou.
But this time, except for Ai Li and Sanchi, no one from Ancheng and Qilian City followed them. They were severely beaten.
Lu Chen didn't care about this. They had been drained of their experience points and were not worthy of Lu Chen's attention again.
However, no one followed from behind. Where Lu Chen went, there were countless people waiting. They had not experienced the blow and did not know the dangers of the world.
"This won't work. Most evil spirits are scary and can absorb fear to grow. I have to let them understand what terror is. After seeing me and facing evil spirits again, they will feel that evil spirits have nothing to be afraid of.
"
"It seems like I'm a good person."
With the spirit of sacrificing himself for others, Lu Chen directly released the death crow, allowing the plague and curse to invade the bodies of those warriors.
Under the influence of the plague and curse, they will endure the torture of illness, and the feeling of death will remain in their hearts. Even after being accused of the dead crow again absorbing the plague, those people still have fear in the face of Lu Chen, looking at Lu Chen's
His eyes looked more like looking at a devil.
Lu Chen was very calm about this. He knew that although he controlled the plague and the curse and continued to stimulate the people of Yunzhou along the way, he did all this for Yunzhou.
"My heart and mind are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous!"
"When you are in hell, your heart is toward the light."
Looking at the people of Yunzhou who were tortured by the plague, Lu Chen had such a clear understanding in his heart.
Of course, these emotions were all sent by Lu Chen himself. Seeing the crow with an ominous aura eroding everything, Ai Li, the Taoist priest and the monk were all a little uncomfortable, but after discovering that the crow was controlled by Lu Chen, they did not say anything.
, at the same time, during the process of advancing, Lu Chen was also struck crazily by Ai Liyun's thunder and lightning.
What Lu Chen didn't expect was that the Taoist priest was also good at thunder. With the cooperation of the Taoist priest and Ai Li, the thunder struck at Lu Chen's head for more than half an hour.
When he first watched Lu Chen absorb lightning, Ai Li didn't care. In the tens of thousands of years of inheritance, it's not like there are no people in their tribe who can absorb lightning to make their bodies stronger.
But after Lu Chen absorbed it for fifteen minutes, he couldn't restrain the surprise on his face.
Monk Sanchi also looked at the Taoist priest with twitching corners of his mouth: "Thunder and lightning can indeed temper the body, but I remember that thunder and lightning are violent, and they can also hurt the body during the tempering process. Can't you at most only bear it one by one? Nine in a row.
You can call it a genius, how can this guy persist for so long?"
Thunder tempering will indeed hurt the body. Even Lu Chen, after being struck continuously for fifteen minutes, felt a kind of numbness and burning in his body. There was even the smell of barbecue in the air.
This is a sign that the body has reached its limit. When the people of the Ai tribe reach this point, they need to cultivate for a period of time before they can undergo thunder and lightning tempering again.
Of course, if they were to fully withstand rather than resist, they would have to rest after just two or three lightning strikes.
But the situation changed when Lu Chen came here. The violent thunder and lightning did hurt the body, and the paralysis and burning also had the effect of inhibiting the recovery of flesh and blood. However, Lu Chen himself was too strong. Even if he did not resist but completely withstood it, it took fifteen minutes for Lu Chen to
Chen's body was completely paralyzed.
What's even more terrifying is that when his body was damaged, the Avalon in Lu Chen's body continued to send spiritual energy to restore his incomplete body, which allowed Lu Chen to persist for half an hour.
Half an hour of thunderous strikes was still very effective. When the thunder stopped, Lu Chen's height increased by another 13 centimeters.
However, half an hour later, Lu Chen also discovered that he could not persist again, otherwise, it would be easy to hurt his roots.
"That's enough, you guys can calm down."
Seeing Lu Chen stop, both Ai Li and the Taoist priest who had always been calm breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Chen, who had been tempered by thunder and lightning, made them feel that their world view was about to change.
"Fortunately, this guy is not a real monster. He finally has a personality."
"Although half an hour is a long time ago, there are geniuses in our family who have reached the standard... I guess."
They breathed a sigh of relief at Lu Chen's call to stop, but soon they found that they had relaxed too early. When two hours passed, Lu Chen actually called them again.
"Summon the thunder, I'm ready to rest."
These words made the three of Avery look at each other. Finally, Avery cautiously said, "Are you sure you can bear it?"
"Of course, don't worry, I won't make fun of my body."
Seeing Lu Chen's determined expression, they could only follow Lu Chen's wish and bombard him with thunder again.
In this way, another half hour passed, and Lu Chen's body grew another ten centimeters.
To Ai Li's helplessness, two hours later, Lu Chen called Ai Li again.
"Brother Eli, please continue, I'm ready to rest."
"But I didn't get a good rest!"
Looking at Ai Li's tired look, Lu Chen felt embarrassed. He had forgotten that summoning thunder consumes a lot of spiritual energy. Especially since Lu Chen's body was strong, Lu Chen's thunder had to be strong if he wanted to temper it. This made Ai Li tired.
What's more.
Lu Chen was embarrassed, but Avery was even more embarrassed. He didn't expect that one day his enemy would tire him to death just by standing.
While embarrassed, Ai Li was also surprised at why Lu Chen recovered so quickly.
This is the unity of heaven and man in Wuji Kendo, the protection of the sun, and the effect of Avalon. The three recovery abilities allow Lu Chen to absorb spiritual energy from the heaven and earth, the sun, and his own small world. With the blessing of the three,
Lu Chen's recovery speed was naturally explosive.
Ai Li and the Taoist priest were tired, and Lu Chen had no choice but to rest for a while.
Fortunately, his rest time did not last long. It was not the arrival of the big city, but the nightfall.
The wilderness in Yunzhou is not peaceful either. After the sun sets, a strange atmosphere fills the wilderness, and evil spirits are also lurking in the dark night.
These things prevent humans from going out and block the connections between towns.
Unfortunately, they met Lu Chen. Lu Chen, who could not be struck by lightning, directly summoned death crows all over the sky, spreading plague and curses across the land.
[Ding, the system prompts that the host has killed the Baiyou-level evil spirit. Because the host level is too high, it is no longer possible to obtain experience points]
[Ding, the system prompts, the host kills the black coffin-level evil spirit and gains 3 experience points]
[Ding, system prompts, host killed...]
The gain in experience points is not a lot, but a little bit is good, and Lu Chen is not picky.
What he didn't know was that such a large-scale raid had made Avery and the monk feel much better about him.
"His Royal Highness Prince Chen did not lie. His challenge to the Yunzhou people was not against you, but because he cared about the world and felt that there were too many hardships in the world, so he wanted to become stronger quickly."
"Indeed, if it were targeted, His Highness Prince Chen would not waste any effort to wipe out evil spirits."
"Although such a brave man who hates evil is a bit warlike, we need such a hero in this era. It is not a mistake to help him."
"Sure enough, those who follow Lin Ye are not bad people."
Thinking like this, Ai Li directly took his elixir. He wanted to use the elixir to speed up his recovery and help Lu Chen grow.
You know, Avery is very strong, and the spiritual energy in his body is very large in both quality and quantity, which makes the elixir that wants to restore him very precious. But even so, Avery, who was "touched", still spent his own money to help
Lu Chen.
With the help of the elixir, Ai Li and the Taoist priest could barely keep up with Lu Chen's recovery speed, allowing Lu Chen to be struck by lightning just after he had rested... Well, I feel that this word is not a very good one, but in the thunder
Under the tempering process, Lu Chen's body grew taller at a speed visible to the naked eye. For a strong person who practices blood energy, a taller body also means an increase in strength.
In this way, they advanced steadily during the day, swept away evil spirits at night, and directly provoked the whole city when encountering towns. Lu Chen and others moved forward very quickly.
However, despite their fast speed, they did not reach the royal city because the road Lu Chen took was crooked. And the behavior of provoking everyone along the way also made Lu Chen's reputation completely spread among the geniuses in Yunzhou and Zhongzhou.
.
Of course, it's not a good reputation, but notoriety is also a reputation. At least, Lu Chen made the whole Yunzhou talk about him.
What Lu Chen didn't expect was that in this situation, his second ghost god, Pu Ruimeng of Corrosion, gained the most benefits.
Due to Lu Chen's rampage, there are rumors in Yunzhou that Lu Chen is an eight-foot-tall monster with a green face and fangs, can eat living people alive, and is also good at plagues and curses.
This image, coupled with the demonization of Lu Chen's behavior, made the ordinary people in Yunzhou very afraid of Lu Chen. In some places, Lu Chen has even become an evil ghost who can stop children from crying. This fear has been eliminated by the ghost.
After sensing it, it turned into the food of the second ghost god, Corrosion's Universal Violence, allowing it to grow rapidly.
The second ghost and god, Pu Meng of Corrosion, is a ghost and god that corrodes people's hearts and arouses fear in humans. Due to fear, as Lu Chen's enemies, their mental resistance will be reduced and they will be more susceptible to erosion. At the same time, the third
The two ghosts and gods can also absorb fear and grow.
Because the entire Yunzhou was fearful, Lu Chen's second ghost and god accumulated enough fear in a short period of time. Lu Chen even had a feeling that the second ghost and god was about to awaken.
"The awakening of Kazan, the first ghost god of Blade Soul, brought me the Demon Hell Bloodbrake. Although the fourth ghost god, Saya of Frost, has not awakened, but coupled with Frostmourne, she also has the power of awakening. She can fight against gods.
If the incarnation of the second ghost god Pumeng of Corrosion awakens, he will also have the power to fight against the incarnation of God."
This was a good thing, but Lu Chen suppressed the awakening of the second ghost and god. There was nothing he could do about it. After all, the ghost hand was not a colorful myth, but a black taboo, and it would backfire.
"Now I cannot bear the power of the awakening of the three ghosts and gods. I must first improve my will."
With this in mind, Lu Chen directly clicked on the Overlord color.
[Ding, the system prompts that the host's domineering color is advanced, and it requires 1.83 million experience points to upgrade to perfection]
[Ding, the system prompts that the overlord color and domineering spirit are the spirit of a king. Only those with the qualifications of a king can possess it. The host follows the way of the overlord, conquering everything with oneself. The more people the host conquers, the overlord color and domineering spirit increases.
the faster]
There is always more than one way to improve skills. You can practice by yourself, you can integrate the heavenly materials and earthly treasures connected with the skills, and experience value is only the fastest way.
At the same time, after practicing or integrating some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, the experience points Lu Chen needs to improve his skills will be much less.
This is the case with Overlord's Haki. Unlike other skills, Overlord's Haki cannot be cultivated through ordinary methods. As a king's qualification, only when Lu Chen conquers more people and gains recognition or fear from more people can Overlord's Haki improve.
Although what Lu Chen did in Yunzhou was for the purpose of gaining experience points, it could also be regarded as a kind of conquest. His continuous victories made countless people fear him, and this fear also made Lu Chen's kingly aura more fierce.
, that is, the demand for experience points is reduced.
"Now I only need 1.8 million experience points to improve my skills, but I still can't get them. I have to work harder. After challenging several wealthy families in big cities again, whether it's experience points or everyone's fear, I can make them better."
My overlord color and domineering energy have been raised to perfection."
"And after the Overlord Color's domineering energy is completed, the second ghost god, Pu Meng of Corrosion, can awaken directly without being suppressed."
Thinking like this, Lu Chen already had a plan in mind.
"It's coming soon. If I visit two or three more houses, I can get promoted. However, the next stop is the Xiang family. I remember that this family is also good at using thunder and lightning. I think we can bring out some of their family's geniuses to assist Ai Li.
In this way, my Thunder Body Refining can be accelerated again."
Thinking like this, Lu Chen looked at himself. Continuous training made Lu Chen's height become 6.7 meters.
This is all the effect of Thunder Tempering. However, as Lu Chen's height skyrocketed again, Ai Li gradually became unable to do what he wanted. What's more important is that most of the strong physiques have the passive ability of adaptive evolution.
Adaptive evolution means that after being crazily hit by a certain ability for a long time, the body will gradually evolve resistance to this ability.
This kind of evolution is almost an instinct engraved in the genes of all living things, and it is also the origin of the theory of biological evolution.
For example, creatures living on ice sheets will grow thick fat and hair, and their bodies will also turn white, which can reduce predation from the world. When the earth's oxygen decreases, huge creatures will slowly shrink, and there are other
All these indicate that organisms have the ability to evolve.
Ordinary creatures can evolve, but people with special physiques like Lu Chen can evolve more easily.
Even because the will is initially integrated into flesh and blood, and the cells have sufficient energy, this evolution has accelerated thousands of times.
Lu Chen was like this. He was struck wildly by thunder, which made him extremely resistant to lightning in just a few days. Now, Lu Chen's body will only be damaged after being bombarded by thunder for an hour. This
This kind of resistance requires Eli to persist for a longer period of time.
But Ai Li was unable to let the thunder and lightning roar for an hour, which forced Lu Chen to look for more lightning kings and ask them to give him electrotherapy.
"I hope the Xiang family has more people who are good at thunder and lightning. Well, it would be great if their army could gather everyone's strength to summon thunder like the Lan family's army."
With such thoughts, Lu Chen's team approached the Xiang family.
However, after getting closer, Lu Chen discovered that there were more young and powerful people around the Xiang family than he imagined, and the strength of those people was not weak either.
"Is it possible that these are all preparing to challenge me? They feel that they are giving away one by one, so they gather together to challenge me."
Thinking like this, Lu Chen didn't feel much discomfort on his face, but instead had a smile on his lips.
He was never afraid of challenges. Even in Lu Chen's eyes, the people standing were not human beings, but cash machines spitting out experience one by one.
Lu Chen was in an excited mood. Those people were also looking at the barbarian convoy, but no one stepped forward to challenge it.
"What's going on? Why don't you say that you don't need to talk about moral principles when facing barbarians? Why don't we all come together and then swarm over like a nest?"
Lu Chen was wondering, but his words made Ai Li, who was resting in the car, look helpless.
"Hey, you guy, you think so badly of us Zhongzhou warriors!"
"Isn't that so?"
"Of course not."
After finishing speaking, Aili said helplessly: "The people here are not waiting for you. I remember that it was the Flying Swordsman You Guifeng who was preparing to fight the Crazy Sword in the nearby Chongshan Mountain. This attracted many people to come and watch."
"Can a duel between two people attract many people to watch?"
These words made Lu Chen thoughtful, but Ai Li didn't know what Lu Chen was thinking, so he said directly: "They are not ordinary people, they must be strong to fight. The Flying Swordsman and the Crazy Sword are both strong in the last ranking.
, their battle is an exquisite demonstration for the strong men who use swords and swords. Those who are lucky can even learn something from the battle between the two. Whether it is for benefit or to watch the excitement, they will naturally
There are a lot of people coming.”
After Ai Li finished speaking, Lu Chen seemed to understand something, and then he directly ordered Ji Hongdie: "Invite heroes from all over the world, and say that I will challenge on March 15th... Well, you can just find a famous person
The strong man issued a challenge and said I would challenge him."
Faced with Lu Chen's words, Avery nodded: "It's a good idea to send out a challenge message, and it's much better than running to someone's door to provoke them."
Ai Li was relieved, but what Lu Chen said next made him confused.
"The location of the challenge must be placed on a traffic thoroughfare. You should also hire more people to spread the word about my challenge as much as possible. Be sure to let the Yunzhou warriors know about this challenge. If possible, use those who are willing to come to watch the battle.
Cars and horses will be used to transport us here... Forget it, it costs too much money."
Such words completely confused Ai Li, but the handsome young man thought of something and stood up in horror.
"You...you are not going to beat up the spectators who came to watch after your victory."
