Chapter 39: Purple fire turns into sword, fleeting light and shadow! Life and death... in a flash! [5000 words long chapter]
On the deserted road, the huge Shangfu bird took two steps at a time and suddenly came to Lu Chen.
Looking at this tiny prey that is not even as tall as his chest.
A hint of excitement flashed in Shangfu Bird's eyes, and it suddenly pecked at Lu Chen with its sharp beak.
Boom! The hard concrete floor was as fragile as tofu in front of the sharp beak of the bird.
In an instant, a huge hole was created, stirring up countless pieces of rubble.
Fortunately, Lu Chen reacted quickly. He dodged Shang Fu's attack almost at the moment and instantly flew into the air.
Looking at the bird with its head still buried in the concrete, Lu Chen took decisive action.
Sword technique...Water Dragon Song!
Roar! The rapidly vibrating sword body made a metallic sound and pierced the neck of the bird with the force of breaking through the air.
But as a spiritual beast in the foundation-building stage in its prime.
The power of Shangfu Bird far exceeded Lu Chen's imagination.
Facing Lu Chen's attack, Shang Funiao did not show any sign of avoiding it and chose to exchange injuries for injuries.
The other two heads attacked Lu Chen in mid-air at the same time.
As a result, Lu Chen was instantly in a dilemma.
If he continued to attack, he could certainly cause serious damage to one of the Shangfu Bird's heads.
But he would not have time to dodge and would be hit by the beaks on the other two heads of the Shangfu Bird at the same time.
Judging from the attack power that Shangfu Bird had demonstrated before.
Not to mention he was hit by two bird beaks at the same time.
If he was hit by even just one of them, he would be skinned alive even if he didn't die.
Therefore, in a split second, the combat experience gained from dying hundreds of times in the dungeon allowed Lu Chen to make the most correct decision.
Body movement...Flowing Cloud Step!
Bang! Lu Chen stepped hard in mid-air, and the air under his feet was like waves on a lake, rolling up layers of air waves.
His body was able to flow through the air, passing between the beaks of the two heads of Yu Shangfu Bird and landing on an open space not far away.
Such a slippery scene was obviously a little beyond Shang Fu Niao's expectations.
Its head, which was originally inserted into the ground, was raised. The three heads looked at Lu Chen from afar, their eyes full of curiosity.
It seemed as if he was wondering why this guy, who hadn't even reached the foundation-building stage, had the ability to fly.
Bai Ling, who was standing in the distance, was also very surprised by Lu Chen's behavior.
At first, he was curious about why Bailing was in the noodle shop.
One reason was that she used her own special talent to sense Lu Chen's amazing spiritual root qualifications.
Secondly, she discovered that Lu Chen's aura was peaceful and calm, and it was obvious that he had mastered some righteous martial arts.
What do these two points show? They show that Lu Chen is not only extremely talented, but also has a high level of comprehension.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to master a certain righteous skill at his age.
It would be great if you can master one or two spells and bring your full strength into play.
But on top of these two things, Lu Chen gave her another huge surprise.
Despite the obvious difference in strength, this person was able to dodge Shang Fu Bird's attacks time and time again.
This was of course because Shang Fu Niao was not serious and only chose the most common physical attack.
However, it is not easy for ordinary Qi training cultivators to dodge these attacks.
Kind of interesting, this guy is so interesting.
At this moment, Bailing couldn't help but think of Lu Chen's information again.
A person who lost both parents at the age of eight has reached where he is today solely through his own efforts.
If she and Lu Chen switched places, could she achieve what he did?
The answer is a resounding no.
Because no one knows better than her what she has gone through to achieve her current strength.
Family background, talent, resources and luck are all essential.
But in Lu Chen, she only saw talent and luck.
Without family background and resources, she would never be able to achieve the same success as Lu Chen at his age.
In addition, Bailing also figured out one thing during the brief fight between Lu Chen and Shang Fu Bird.
That is, Lu Chen is definitely not the evil Black Lotus Sect member who used the Five Spirit Blood Pill Technique.
The Five Spirit Blood Pill Technique is a kind of evil magic that is similar to a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest.
The core principle is to refine the spiritual roots of other geniuses into blood pills, so as to improve one's own qualifications which were not good to begin with.
But what belongs to others is ultimately just what belongs to others.
No matter how many methods you use, you can't make them completely your own.
Therefore, for any pseudo-genius who uses the Five Spirit Blood Pill Technique, it is almost certain that his realm will be superficial.
He would definitely not display the extremely profound cultivation skills like Lu Chen at this moment.
As for whether Lu Chen was pretending to be doing all this, absolutely not.
Because no one can hold back in a life-and-death crisis.
Bai Ling had used this tactic many times before: to increase the strength of the guys suspected to be from the Black Lotus Sect so that they would reveal their own weaknesses.
Although she was criticized by her superiors for this special investigation method that lacked procedural procedures and even received a lot of punishments.
But she still likes to do it.
The main point is that I admit my mistakes, but I will never change.
Because in her opinion, this is the most efficient way of investigation.
Even if I really misunderstood others in the end.
At worst, she could just apologize when the time comes. Anyway, she was just scare the other person with words, and her actions were still very effective.
But what Bailing didn't know was that not everyone in this world can be dismissed with a simple apology after being misunderstood.
After all, any rule that has been established for a long time is not a decision made on a whim.
They must have been tested by countless facts and are special laws that have been summarized.
The moment Bailing chooses to abandon the rules, she will have to bear risks beyond the rules.
On the road, Lu Chen looked at the Shangfu bird and the lark not far away.
I had no idea why they suddenly came to me, and I had no idea why they suddenly attacked me.
But he was very clear about one thing: the combination of this man and this bird was very powerful.
He is so strong that even if he uses all his means, there is only a very small chance that he can seriously injure the opponent.
What's more, he also found that he seemed to be pulled into an unknown space by Bailing.
If he couldn't find a way to leave this unknown space, even if he could luckily severely injure Bai Ling, he would still not be able to escape.
At this moment, Lu Chen only felt that he was trapped in a situation where he was doomed to die.
But the more times like this happened, the calmer Lu Chen's thoughts became.
At one time, you only have one chance to make a move.
Whether it is Shang Fu Bird or Bai Ling, their strength is far above his.
Once they get serious, there's no chance of winning.
Therefore, he must take advantage of Bailing's contempt for him in order to seize that fleeting opportunity.
Man proposes, God disposes.
Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, he will still try his best.
After all...what if he wins? Lu Chen raised his head, his eyes full of determination.
The sudden change in his aura also made Bailing's heart tremble, and she had a vague feeling of uneasiness.
But as soon as this idea came up, she immediately dismissed it.
What a joke! This guy is just a student at the fourth level of Qi training.
No matter how talented he was, he could never pose a threat to her who was at the fourth level of foundation building. Absolutely! Not to mention that she had the help of Shang Fu Niao who was also at the foundation building stage.
She couldn't see any possibility that Lu Chen would hurt herself.
Absolute strength brings absolute confidence.
And what absolute self-confidence brings is... absolute arrogance.
In this world, there will always be people who pay the price for their arrogance.
Although he was ready to fight to the death, Lu Chen did not rush to attack. Instead, he asked, "Who are you?"
Bai Ling was stunned, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "I am the assistant of the Qingzhou Mountain and Sea Division, Bai Ling."
"Do you and I have any grudges against each other?"
Bailing shook her head.
"No."
"Understood……"
Lu Chen nodded, then took out ten tall dark green puppets from his storage bag.
These ten puppets were dark green all over, and the aura they exuded was comparable to that of the seventh level of Qi training.
Lu Chen stood among the ten Qingxuan puppets and said calmly: "Although there was none before, but now... there is."
Hearing this, Bailing laughed, laughing at Lu Chen's overestimation of his own abilities.
They are just a few puppets in the Qi training stage. Do you think they can cause me any trouble?
Can the Qingxuan puppet cause trouble to Bailing? Of course not.
But their existence allows Lu Chen to seize the only fleeting chance to win.
Seeing that Lu Chen stopped talking, Bailing also felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.
It seems that I took the joke... a little too far.
If she had gone through the procedures first, stated her identity, and asked about Lu Chen's situation.
Judging from Lu Chen's personality as described in the information, he will most likely cooperate with the investigation.
But at this moment, she was too proud to bow her head, let alone admit her mistakes.
Moreover, given the current situation, even if I tell Lu Chen the truth, he will probably not let it go.
In this case, let’s resolve the misunderstanding between us using the monk’s way!
After all, in the world of immortal cultivation... strength is respected!
"Xiao Shang, go and dismantle those broken pieces of copper and iron for me."
"Ming!"
The Shang Fu bird chirped, and then rushed towards the ten Qingxuan puppets that Lu Chen had just released.
In response to this, Lu Chen followed the puppets and went forward to meet them.
Bang! The Qingxuan puppet made of thousand-year-old Qingxuan wood was as fragile as a toy in front of the Shangfu bird.
In just one encounter, four Qingxuan puppets were torn to pieces by Shang Fu Bird's peck.
The remaining six jumped high and hugged the head of Shangfu Bird in a suicidal manner.
Although their actions are undoubtedly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
But it also created a rare opportunity for Lu Chen.
Lu Chen, who had been holding back, burst out at this moment with astonishing speed.
It happened at the moment when Shang Fu Bird was briefly entangled.
It passed by it at an astonishing speed and went straight for the lark behind it.
Looking at Lu Chen rushing towards her, Bailing still looked relaxed.
Who gave you the courage to fight a physical cultivator in the foundation-building stage? Even if I stand still, you can't hurt me at all! Thinking of this, the arrogant Bai Ling was too lazy to even take the magic weapon, and just stood there waiting for Lu Chen to approach.
But the next second, Bailing's face changed.
Dragon roar...Heaven-breaking strike!
"roar!"
On the quiet road, a deafening dragon roar suddenly sounded.
Lu Chen held the sword in one hand, and the violently vibrating sword released amazing sword intent.
The spiritual energy around his body seemed to have substance, condensing into a lifelike silver-white dragon.
Looking at the silver-white dragon that was attacking Lu Chen fiercely, Bai Ling raised his arms suddenly.
A large number of mysterious golden lines appeared on the white arms, and a pair of golden gauntlets condensed on the arms to resist the terrifying silver dragon.
How could a person in the Qi training stage perform such a swordsmanship? ! Boom! The moment Lu Chen's silver dragon collided with the golden gauntlet, the light spot disappeared on the spot.
The magic sword in his hand was also broken in half because it could not withstand the impact of the collision.
Although half of the sword was still stuck between Bai Ling's arms, it could not move forward an inch.
After everything was over, Bailing looked at Lu Chen, who was pale and breathing weakly.
Understand that he is at the end of his strength.
It was a close call, we almost capsized in the ditch.
Bai Ling, who thought she had won, looked at Lu Chen who was so close.
He sighed, "What a pity! If the difference between our cultivation levels wasn't so huge, you would have been able to hurt me with this sword."
As he spoke, Bai Ling let go of Lu Chen's broken sword and was about to tell him that there was no need to fight anymore, as it was all a misunderstanding.
But just when she relaxed, Lu Chen smiled.
"Who told you...I only have one sword?"
Bai Ling's pupils shrank, and a strong sense of crisis surged in her heart.
[You consumed 3000 experience points, and your cultivation level was raised to the seventh level of Qi training]
[Cultivation: Qi training stage seventh level (7100/30000)]
[You have taken a large amount of Qi Gathering Pills, and your spiritual power is recovering rapidly...]
[You have taken a large amount of blood-replenishing pills, and your body is recovering rapidly...]
Lu Chen was seen controlling the game character on the phone in his pocket remotely in some unknown way.
The game character added the experience points to his cultivation while taking drugs crazily to make up for his almost depleted spiritual power and the damage to his body caused by the violent spiritual power.
In an instant, Lu Chen not only recovered to his full-time state, but his own cultivation base also skyrocketed!
And all this happened in just one second.
Magical power: Purple Fire! Purple fire turns into a sword, fleeting light, life and death... in an instant! Lu Chen's empty left hand held a knife, and the purple magical flame condensed into a flaming blade, attacking Bailing's throat at an astonishing speed.
This caught Lu Chen off guard, who mistakenly thought he was exhausted, or who was indeed exhausted but recovered in an instant.
At the critical moment of life and death, Bailing had to react instinctively. She leaned back to dodge and subconsciously punched Lu Chen in the chest.
Swish!
Bai Ling took a step back, covered her throat, and looked in disbelief at Lu Chen who was knocked away by her punch and fell into the ruins beside her.
Tick-tock, tick-tock…
Fresh blood flowed from her fingers and fell onto the asphalt road.
Almost, just a little bit...
Bai Ling looked down in shock at the Pisces jade pendant on her chest that had broken into pieces, and was very scared.
If it weren't for this protective magic weapon, he might have been successfully ambushed by Lu Chen.
Lu Chen, who was lying in the ruins in the distance, looked up with difficulty and saw this scene, with regret written all over his face.
"One inch, after all, it's still one inch short..."
"If I had used a familiar long sword just now, perhaps this strike... could have put an end to her."
"After all... I still lacked a bit of luck."
Although the situation was already decided, Lu Chen still forced himself to sit down against the wall despite his serious injuries.
His arms were taut and several of his ribs were broken.
With such an injury, it is not easy to sit up.
And this was just a subconscious punch from Bailing.
But even in such a miserable state, he looked at Bailing not far away and still smiled, and his smile was very free and easy.
"Next time, if there is a next time, you... won't be so lucky again."
"This time, I lost."
Looking at Lu Chen who was seriously injured and unable to fight anymore, Bailing fell silent.
At this moment, Bailing didn't care about his injuries.
Because it was only a superficial wound, she was worried about her own punch.
She really didn't hold back with that punch just now! It's bad, it's really bad now.
How did things develop to this point? Just as Bai Ling was about to take out the elixir from her storage bag to treat Lu Chen's body first.
A long golden stick broke through the "mountain and sea painting" she had set up, and smashed hard in front of her.
The next second, a tall figure walked out from the cracked space next to him, emitting endless pressure.
The pressure was so strong that Bai Ling and Shang Fu Niao, who was not far away, fell to their knees on the ground immediately.
"Bai Ling, I think I should have warned you to be careful."
"Your Shanhai Division... are too overbearing."
Yu Tianqi came in front of Bailing with a gloomy face.
He looked at Bai Ling who was kneeling on the ground and said in an emotionless tone: "If you like to break the rules, then even if you are the granddaughter of old man Bai, I must teach you a lesson today."
"After all, rules represent more than just constraints; they are also a form of protection."
"Stand up. This time... I will be your opponent."
Bailing looked at Yu Tianqi who suddenly appeared, her heart filled with bitterness.
You reap what you sow. You really are reaping what you sow.
If I had known earlier, I should have followed the Shanhaisi's law enforcement rules, presume the crime to be innocent, and ask questions first before taking action.
Now I am asked to build the foundation and fight the golden elixir, even if the opponent’s golden elixir has an injured foundation.
But do I…have that ability? ! PS: I am sweating profusely. Really sweating profusely. My brothers gave me full intensity in the last chapter. Fat Tiger was sweating profusely. I had to write tomorrow's plot quickly. This chapter is equivalent to two chapters.
