My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 29 Slaying the Crimson Flame Monster

Unlike before, this time he couldn't sense the presence of spatial power at all.

Is it because spatial forces have solidified?

Li Chen hesitated slightly, but still didn't dare to act recklessly. He didn't try to collect spatial attributes again, lest something unexpected happen.

A dizzying sensation washed over him, and he found himself at the exit of the Wilderness World.

A familiar chill pervaded the air; this was a characteristic of nights in this wild world.

Li Chen looked back and found that behind him was also a world passage with a diameter of 100 meters, formed by a light blue mist.

Furthermore, this area is no longer a wild, overgrown wasteland, and the thick layer of decaying leaves on the ground is gone.

The military had clearly cleared the area; the ground was clean and appeared to have been burned.

However, those towering giant trees are still preserved, probably because it was felt that cutting down such giant trees would be too much of a waste of time and energy.

Moreover, so many towering trees can also serve as a defensive barrier, protecting against attacks from the sky.

Li Chen looked up and saw the guards in the distance, as well as rows of assembled cannons.

There were even many talismans pasted on those cannons, presumably to guard against sneak attacks from ghosts or monsters.

In addition, there were soldiers on top of the giant tree, some standing guard with rifles, others aiming their sniper rifles into the distance.

All the soldiers here possess cultivation.

Compared to the other side of Earth, this place is practically armed like an iron barrel.

At this moment, Hu Zhongming also came through: "Brother Li, there are no houses here. You're not going to go out on an adventure right now, are you? The nights in the Wilderness World are dangerous. It's said that there are all sorts of evil spirits and strange creatures, and even eerie beings like the Great Wilderness Night Walker."

"What is the Great Wilderness Night Guest?" Li Chen's heart skipped a beat.

"I've heard it's a curse that comes at night in the form of humans or other creatures, and you can't get rid of it."

Hu Zhongming said, "I don't know the specifics, because I've never seen it."

Li Chen couldn't help but think of the faceless man he had seen on the giant tree before, but then he felt that it probably wasn't the Great Wilderness Night Guest.

Because he wasn't entangled by that strange faceless man.

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked again, "You said before that there are no more than ten people on Earth who have reached the strength of ten thousand jin in the Body Tempering Realm. How many people have a strength exceeding ten thousand jin?"

"A force exceeding ten thousand jin? That's a legendary existence."

Hu Zhongming sighed, "I heard that two years ago a peerless genius appeared who possessed the strength of 20,000 jin while still in the Body Tempering Realm. He must be incredibly powerful by now, right?"

"Is a force of 20,000 jin already legendary?"

Li Chen's eyes flashed, and then he strode into the darkness.

"He asked about the strength of 20,000 jin... Could he be trying to reach that legendary level?"

Hu Zhongming was secretly surprised, but after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't dare to follow.

After all, the nights in this wild world are truly dangerous, and strange things can happen at any time.

He didn't know what gave Li Chen the confidence to act at night.

Based solely on the strength the opponent has previously demonstrated, they might be fine against ferocious beasts, but if they encounter evil spirits, they won't even know how they died.

Because the only way to kill evil spirits is through targeted supernatural abilities such as lightning or fire, or through talismans or similar items.

……

After leaving the passage and getting away from the military garrison, Li Chen headed straight for the location of the Crimson Flame Monster, following the directions he remembered.

The reason he went there was to obtain more Fire Essence in order to enhance his potential and increase the upper limit of the Qi and Blood attributes that his body could accommodate.

The issue of cultivation methods can be resolved gradually.

However, the issue of the upper limit must be addressed in advance.

Otherwise, if one accidentally breaks through to the second realm of mortals, it might stifle their potential.

He dared to walk at night, which naturally indicated that he had some confidence.

It's not just because of his fire-based abilities, but also because he now possesses a mysterious and profound divine quality.

Ordinary evil spirits probably wouldn't dare to approach him at all.

In addition, this area has been cleared by the military, so as long as you don't go far, there shouldn't be much danger.

Just as he had predicted, he did not encounter any danger until he reached the cliff, not even wild beasts.

"I wonder if that Crimson Flame Demon is still around? Am I strong enough to deal with it now?"

Li Chen pondered for a moment, then climbed down the cliff and arrived at the entrance of the cave from before.

The area has been burned black, but the entrance to the cave is still there, and it has been dug open by the people of Black Sheep Village.

Therefore, he did not spend much time before successfully entering the cave.

After entering the cave, he used his spatial powers to sense his surroundings as he moved forward.

The further you go, the higher the temperature gets, which must be from the underground caves.

Soon, he arrived at the entrance to the underground cave, which was in a terrible state of destruction, with many places even crystallized.

"This crimson demon might be stronger than I imagined."

Li Chen was secretly on guard, trying his best to conceal his aura, and cautiously poked his head out.

Finally, he saw the Crimson Flame Monster.

The other person had curled up into a ball and lay motionless on the ground, seemingly in hibernation, showing no reaction to his appearance.

"It's good that they're still here. As long as they're not awake, my chances are pretty good."

Li Chen took a deep breath, then tiptoed into the underground cavern, arriving behind the Crimson Flame Monster, which was over three meters tall even when curled up. He then stretched out his left hand and began to attack.

"I want the source of fire, I want the source of fire."

He tried to interfere with it using his subjective will.

[Fire Essence +1]

Soon, a source of fire was collected.

Li Chen was overjoyed and quickly continued collecting.

[Fire Essence +1]

[Fire Essence +1]

In the blink of an eye, two more sources of fire were collected.

Just as he was about to continue gathering, the Crimson Flame Monster finally sensed something was wrong and was awakened, as a terrifying high temperature appeared.

Li Chen was about to run away when he discovered that the high temperature no longer harmed him, because he also had the source of fire within his body.

In particular, my own intuition failed to alert me to any sense of crisis.

This gave him a thought, and he resisted the urge to run away immediately, instead gritting his teeth and continuing to collect.

[Fire Essence +1]

Another source of fire has been collected.

The next moment, the Crimson Flame Demon, which was about to awaken, lay down again, its movements becoming extremely stiff.

Even the rising temperature in the underground caves is dropping rapidly.

"As expected, the Crimson Flame Demon's energy source is the essence of fire."

Li Chen was overjoyed and immediately continued collecting.

Finally, after another source of fire was collected, the Crimson Flame Monster seemed to have been killed and completely lost its movement.

However, the temperature in the underground caves drops to around 100 degrees Celsius and then stops decreasing.

At this point, no matter how hard he tried to interfere with it using his will, he was unable to collect the source of fire again.

So he turned to collecting the [Fire Affinity] attribute.

Fire Affinity +1

Fire Affinity +1

……

As each element of fire affinity was collected, the temperature inside the underground cavern dropped again.

After he collected more than twenty fire affinity attributes in one go, the fire element in this underground space seemed to dissipate, and the temperature dropped rapidly to a level slightly higher than normal.

"Phew, let's leave it at that for now. This Crimson Flame Demon's aura is quite strong; let's keep it here to intimidate other creatures. From now on, this will be my cultivation cave."

Li Chen exhaled a breath of stale air, and then, with a hint of excitement, began to integrate the attributes he had just collected into his body.
