When Li Chen returned to his room, Xiao Lin and his brother had already fallen asleep. Li Chen didn't need to worry too much. After all, the 3 Duan Qi symbol on his clothes was the biggest cover. No one knew Li Chen's true strength.
Li Chen sat on the bed and cultivated the Northern Dark Warrior Power for a while before falling asleep. Although he could continuously absorb the internal strength of others, Li Chen still needed to strive for perfection. The more he cultivated, the stronger he would become. Moreover, the purity of his energy would also become more tyrannical.
"Li Chen, Li Chen!" An excited voice woke Li Chen up from his sleep."Are you up yet? There's important news.”
At this time, it was impossible for Li Chen to continue sleeping. Yesterday, Li Chen went to bed very late. Although he felt that absorbing the three people's Dou Qi was very simple, if there was any mistake, Li Chen would probably not be able to stand here today.
After opening the door, Xiao Lin said with a strange expression,""Yesterday, something happened to the subordinates of the three great elders. Two of them are already dead, and one of them has lost all his Dou Qi.”
In fact, Li Chen had already guessed what Xiao Lin was going to say, but at this time, Li Chen still pretended not to know anything."What is it? Did such a big thing happen?"
Seeing Li Chen's expression, Xiao Lin was somewhat pleased with himself. After all, this also showed that he was well-informed. However, after a moment, Xiao Lin once again said worriedly,"Captain Payne has already given the order to double the patrol time for the next few days. Also, be careful when you rest.”
Pei En was indeed very capable. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the captain here. He had already started martial law so quickly. However, after all, such a thing hadn't happened for a long time. No one knew who did it, or was it targeting the Xiao family?
"Looks like I'll have to rest for a few days. It's really inconvenient.”Li Chen thought unhappily.
After all, he had just tasted the sweetness yesterday. However, Li Chen knew when to hide. Even if he was reluctant, he had to do so. If something happened, Li Chen's current strength was not enough to protect himself.
Li Chen pretended to be depressed." It's true. I just came and this happened. It's really frustrating."。。。。。”
"Don't say that. There's nothing we can do about it. When your strength increases, you can apply to be a guard at the Xiao Family. It'll be much easier than here.”Xiao Lin said indifferently.
"En, I understand." " Thank you," Li Chen said softly." You're so well-informed. I'll have to take care of you in the future."”
Li Chen could tell that Xiao Lin was also here to rope him in. After all, they were all in the same team, so it was impossible for another person to make the decision. However, Li Chen did not want to compete with them for these things. Raising his strength was the way to go. After all, most of the women that Li Chen wanted to eat were in the Xiao family.
Hearing Li Chen's words, Xiao Lin turned around and left with a satisfied expression. Clearly, he had obtained the result he wanted.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
In the next few days, Li Chen did not move again. Other than patrolling, he stayed in his room and constantly cultivated the Northern Dark Dou Qi. Because the level of the Northern Dark Dou Qi was very high, Li Chen's cultivation speed was also very fast. It was not any worse than eating pills.
After a few days, Li Chen could feel his Dou Qi increase by leaps and bounds. However, he had yet to break through to the sixth level of Dou Zhi. He still needed a chance to do so because nothing like this had happened in the past few days. Everything had slowly returned to normal, but Li Chen was a very cautious person.
Li Chen gently opened the box by the bed and looked at the hundreds of gold coins inside. Li Chen's eyes gradually became firm.
"It's settled then." Li Chen thought to himself.
Li Chen directly walked out of the room. This was not the time for patrolling, so it was still very leisurely. Li Chen came to a place that he usually patrolled. He accompanied Xiao Lin and his brother here, but their strength was just so-so. There was no potential to increase.
"Brother Li, you're here." When the shopkeeper saw Li Chen, he said enthusiastically,"If you need anything, just say it."
"Give me a Grade 1 Monster Core."
Hearing Li Chen's words, the shopkeeper looked at Li Chen in surprise and said,""Brother Li, the price of this monster core is not cheap.。。。。。。。”
"I have my own use for it," Li Chen said indifferently.”
Upon hearing Li Chen's words, the shopkeeper knew that there were some things that he could not ask too much about. He reached out and took out a wooden box from below. He gently opened it and a fiery red crystal was placed inside. It looked crystal clear and flawless.
"This is one of the best Grade 1 Monster Cores I have.”"Brother Li is also an old customer, and we need to take care of each other in the future. 450 gold coins will do."”
Li Chen nodded his head lightly and threw out the gold coin. He picked up the magic core and turned to leave. The shopkeeper looked at Li Chen's back and pondered for a long time. No matter what, he knew that he could not offend this person. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he could not take the risk.
This was the last bit of wealth left behind by Li Chen's deceased butler father. However, Li Chen had spent all of it now. As long as it could increase his strength, Li Chen didn't care at all. Li Chen had only done so because Darknorth's notes had mentioned that he could absorb all types of energy, so monster cores were no exception.
Li Chen quickened his pace and quickly returned to his room. At the same time, he kept an eye out and only relaxed when he realized that no one was following him. After all, magic cores were not something that ordinary people could afford. Moreover, most of them were needed by alchemists. After all, if a Grade 1 magic core was used to strengthen weapons, it would be somewhat useless.
"Don't think that I'll take the risk just because you've let your guard down.”Li Chen thought to himself.
No one knew if he was trying to lure the snake out of its hole or not. Before his strength had reached a certain level, Li Chen would not be too high-profile. He gently took out the monster core from the wooden box and circulated his Northern Dark Dou Qi. Waves of suction force continuously entered the monster core.
Slowly, red energy began to flow into Li Chen's body. However, because it was a magic core, the absorption speed was not very fast. However, this was enough.
As time passed, the Dou Qi in Li Chen's body slowly increased. Soon, it reached a bottleneck. Li Chen did not stop, but instead increased the absorption rate. As the energy in his body increased once again, the corner of Li Chen's mouth revealed a smile.
"Dou Zhi Li Stage 6."
In just a few short days, Li Chen had leveled up three times, and miracles would happen again. This was like leveling up in an online game. One had to take it step by step. With Darknorth, there were endless possibilities.
"Looks like this shopkeeper didn't trick me. This monster core is indeed not bad.”
Li Chen carefully examined the monster core in his hand. Although the light had dimmed, there was still a lot of energy inside. Li Chen estimated that this amount of energy was enough for him to reach the seventh level of Dou Zhi Power.
