Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

However, at this moment, Xiao Chen was still recovering from his injuries.

He didn't know that the discord between Song Xuan and Ke Yongsheng had vanished because of the oath they swore.

After recovering for several hours, Xiao Chen rummaged through Huo Yan's storage ring and found a fruit that was entirely crimson red.

Scratching his head, he hesitated whether or not to eat it.

He sensed an extremely powerful fire-attribute power within it.

The egg-sized fruit was quite soft, feeling like kneading dough when squeezed.

Its surface had mysterious flame patterns that formed naturally.

When held in the palm, it felt as if the surroundings were enveloped in flames, and the escaping aura caused the surrounding space to twist violently.

His palm felt a burning sensation as if being roasted by flames.

Xiao Chen licked his lips and muttered.

"Screw it, what's the point of keeping this good stuff if I don't eat it?"

However, Xiao Chen was also afraid that Song Xuan would come looking for him.

After all, after they killed the Black Armored Guards, Song Xuan immediately chased after them from the Qihe Sect.

To be safe, Xiao Chen hid in the void, using Immortal Essence to construct a defensive barrier.

At least, it could ensure that he wouldn't be eroded by spatial turbulence for three days.

Drifting in the void for three days shouldn't be a big problem.

Layers of flame barriers were created.

Looking at the ten-zhang barrier space around him, Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction.

He took out the crimson fruit, took a deep breath, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Xiao Chen quickly sat down cross-legged, preparing to refine the power within.

However, the next moment…

Boom!

Xiao Chen's mouth and nose spewed fire, and that power rampaged through his body like a wild beast!

The crimson flames were extremely hot, instantly burning the robes on his body to ashes.

The entire ten-zhang barrier was filled with flames.

Xiao Chen screamed.

"Ah, damn it!!!"

He spewed fire as he spoke…

If Cao Yan were here, he definitely wouldn't have let Xiao Chen swallow it directly.

Because this fruit was called the 'Fire Demon Fruit,' and its grade was extremely close to the fourth rank.

It could improve cultivation, refine the fire-attribute Immortal Essence of cultivators, and this ability would permanently remain in the cultivator's Primordial Spirit.

But…

The power of this fruit was very overbearing. If there were no ice-attribute spiritual objects to neutralize it, it was very likely to incinerate the body of the cultivator who consumed it!

"Ahhhhh! Damn it!!!"

Realizing that he might be experiencing a life-or-death crisis, Xiao Chen immediately calmed down.

Immortal Essence surged, and his cultivation technique was operating at its peak, frantically refining the power within his body.

At that time, he could only wait to explode and die!

Xiao Chen's whole body was burned with scars, and he was extremely anxious.

Pfft!

The blood that spurted out was incinerated and vaporized.

As time passed, the pain in his body gradually numbed Xiao Chen.

The speed of refinement was only twenty to thirty percent of what it was before.

His dantian gradually enlarged, as if he had eaten three days' worth of food in one meal.

The meridians in his body were burned off by that scorching power.

Xiao Chen panted heavily, enduring immense pain.

But he used his strong willpower to keep his mind clear.

Countless methods flashed through his mind, but he rejected them all!

None of them could save his life!

Boom!

Xiao Chen's right hand was instantly enveloped in flames, the flesh was burned with a scorched smell, and even the bones began to burn with flames.

The speed of the flame spread was extremely fast. In almost a few breaths, the entire right arm was burned into charcoal!

Flames began to ignite on his limbs, and his lower abdomen bulged high. In at most an incense stick of time, he would be swallowed by this power!

The ten-zhang barrier and the dark void would be his burial place.

At the same time, Li Guanqi, who was flying through the air with a group of people, suddenly stopped.

Meng Wanshu frowned and asked.

"What's wrong?"

Li Guanqi didn't speak, and instantly took out a life jade slip of cyan and red colors, his face extremely solemn.

At this time, the jade slip was as hot as a red-hot iron, and the life jade slip was covered with dense cracks!

"Not good… something happened to Fourth Brother!!"

Taking out another jade slip, he frantically called out Xiao Chen's name.

But his message was like a mud ox entering the sea, unable to get any response.

Not only Li Guanqi, but Ye Feng, Cao Yan and others also noticed this.

Li Guanqi took out the jade slip and said in a deep voice.

"Who is closest to Fourth Brother? Go find him quickly!!!"

After speaking, Li Guanqi immediately turned his direction and took out the jade slip to ask Qiu Xin, the sect master of the Five Hells.

"I want to go to the Bo Continent!! What's the fastest way?"

Gu Li, who was in another state of the Bo Continent, suddenly changed his face greatly.

He took out a seal and stuck it on himself without hesitation.

Using the power of hundreds of thousands of teleportation seals to frantically shuttle through the void in the direction he sensed.

As time passed, Xiao Chen's body withered, his blood was burned, and his whole body was sunken like skin and bones.

"If… if it were… Big Brother…"

"Big Brother…"

Xiao Chen's consciousness became more and more blurred, and his aura was about to break through the ninth level of the True Immortal Realm at this time.

Just as he was at a loss, a picture suddenly flashed in his mind like a bolt from the blue, awakening him!

He suddenly remembered the scene where Li Guanqi used Immortal Essence to turn into silk threads to bind his broken arm and continue fighting in the battle.

Xiao Chen suddenly raised his head, looked at his only remaining charred left hand, and without hesitation, he suddenly joined it together in the shape of a hand knife and inserted it into his lower abdomen!

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"

Tearing out the rotten flesh in his abdomen, his meridians were broken.

Xiao Chen, roaring angrily, fully mobilized the Immortal Essence he could use, and used the power of the Great Heaven Xia Flame to reconstruct the meridians, replacing the previous flesh and blood meridians.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!!!

His left hand was like a knife, and in the blink of an eye, he had opened three bloody holes in his body.

Under the flow of Immortal Essence flames, a meridian constructed from the power of the Great Heaven Xia Flame was instantly connected.

Buzz!

The accumulated power in his body seemed to have found a vent, and frantically poured into this meridian.

Xiao Chen lowered his head, spitting blood, but his eyes were extremely bright.

"It… it works!!"

Xiao Chen no longer hesitated, frantically opening up bloody holes in his body.

The meridians that could completely operate the cultivation technique were reconstructed one by one.

The bulging lower abdomen visibly deflated.

Xiao Chen, who had walked around the gate of hell, was breathing greedily in the scorching air, his chest heaving violently.

After slightly stabilizing, Xiao Chen's divine sense vibrated, and six jade slips with flashing lights floated in front of him.

Xiao Chen smiled.

"I'm fine… I've worried my brothers… There's no need to come and find me."

Everyone took out his life jade slip to check, and found that the temperature had dropped, and the cracks were disappearing bit by bit.

Then, continuous angry scolding came from the six jade slips.

Xiao Chen smiled, suddenly being cheap.

"I'm going to… be a Half-Step Golden Immortal soon~"

【Let's talk about the recent situation…】

【There is a problem with my body. My neck is a little severely strained, and there are cracks in my lumbar spine L4L5. The situation is the same as last time. Xiao Xiaolaozi just came out of confinement and still needs to be taken care of at night. My energy is limited. I will still try my best to ensure that I update 3 times a day. Adding more updates is a bit impossible… Please understand, and please give me a five-star praise. Thank you.】
