The joy of breaking through made Chen Ning smile. However, when he thought of the two rays of light in his Dantian, one purple and one green, the smile on Chen Ning's face gradually disappeared. He frowned and couldn't help but wonder what those two rays of light were. Could it be those two purple and green swords? After Chen Ning came out of the space in the jade pendant, the Azulet Sword Art and the mysterious senior were real. However, the two purple and green swords were nowhere to be found. Previously, he thought that the space collapsed and he did not bring them out. Now, it seemed that this was not the case.
However, that was not right either. How did the two swords end up in his Dantian? They even turned into two faint rays of starlight. Chen Ning immediately tried to absorb the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth to sense the movement in his Dantian. Now that Chen Ning was already at the peak of the Third Stage, the speed of absorbing Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was several times faster than before. Countless Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth entered his body through his pores and circulated the Azulet Sword Art to refine it. The crazy influx of Xuan Qi from Heaven and Earth caused Chen Ning to feel some pain. However, compared to the previous pain, Chen Ning could completely endure it.
The difference between this and the previous absorption of Celestial Chi was that the Celestial Chi that Chen Ning was absorbing now did not flow into his meridians. Instead, eighty percent of it flowed into his Dantian and was absorbed by the two faint purple-green lights. They were like the mouths of a baby, desperately absorbing. Only a small amount of Celestial Chi flowed into his meridians.
Chen Ning's expression turned ugly when he saw the drastic changes in his body. If he continued like this, wouldn't his cultivation speed be eight times slower than before? Although his injuries and previous breakthrough were all due to the purple-green gas, Chen Ning was not willing to see it affect his cultivation speed.
Chen Ning refused to believe it. The dantian was only that big. The two of them couldn't possibly keep absorbing it, right? There would always be a time when he was full, so he continued to absorb the Xuan Qi from heaven and earth. He did not keep track of time during his cultivation. A few hours passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Ning realized that the purple and green lights in his Dantian were like a bottomless pit. No matter how much he absorbed the Xuan Qi from heaven and earth, he could not fill them up. At this moment, the Xuan Qi in Chen Ning's body had also become extremely full. He was originally at the peak of the third level of the Xuan Realm. After a few hours of absorption, he was on the verge of breaking through. Chen Ning's solemn face lit up. The Azulet Sword Scroll was circulating wildly, and the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth surged into Chen Ning's body even more crazily. As the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth surged into Chen Ning's body, the Azulet in his Dantian seemed to have sensed something. It seemed to know that Chen Ning was about to break through. It did not absorb the Xuan Qi in Chen Ning's body, but instead, a purple-green gas leaked out from his Dantian. Chen Ning had sensed all of this, but at this moment, a breakthrough was imminent. He absorbed the Xuan Qi in the surroundings even more crazily.
As the purple-green gas slowly filled his body, the Heaven and Earth Celestial Chi that Chen Ning had absorbed into his body seemed to be attracted by some kind of suction force. It frantically fused with the purple-green gas and formed a spherical shape again. Then, it dispersed, and a pure and enormous energy spread throughout Chen Ning's body.
After a long while, Chen Ning opened his eyes and exhaled." Fourth level cultivator." Chen Ning stopped cultivating and began to examine his injuries. After the poison in his body was refined, he was fine. The only thing that still hurt was his external injuries. However, they had already formed scars. In some places, the scars had even fallen off on their own, revealing new skin. There was no sign of any injuries. Chen Ning was delighted. He knew how serious his injuries were." It seems that I'm only alive because of the purple-green light in my Dantian." It was them who automatically helped me recover my body when I was unconscious. If not for them, I might have died long ago.”Chen Ning muttered to himself. After thinking about the key point, Chen Ning was relieved that the two purple-green lights in his Dantian were absorbing the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. Compared to saving his life, absorbing a little Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was too insignificant.
Chen Ning lifted the curtain and looked outside. It was still dark. It seemed that there were still some hours before dawn. In that case, he could not waste any more time. Chen Ning continued to sit cross-legged in the tent and cultivate. He was still too weak. Although he was saved by the purple-green light in his body, Chen Ning knew that he could only be saved for a while, but not forever. An external force was an external force after all. If he relied too much on it, he would suffer the consequences one day. Only when he was strong was the last thing.
The night passed quickly and the mercenaries gradually woke up at dawn. Chen Ning was still immersed in his cultivation. Other than stabilizing his newly broken through realm, he had also improved the Celestial Chi in his body. It was only when Black Panther came to visit Chen Ning that Chen Ning stopped his cultivation.
"Brother, what's going on? I was planning to come over to see if you were awake, but you're already cultivating? And your injuries have healed?"
When Black Panther arrived at the tent, he saw that Chen Ning was completely fine and was still cultivating. His eyes were filled with disbelief as if he had discovered a monster.
Chen Ning smiled bitterly at Black Panther's expression. However, he could understand why. No one would be surprised that a severely injured person had suddenly recovered completely overnight. This was only in the Xuantian Continent. If it was in his previous life, he would have been dragged into a laboratory to be a guinea pig.
Chen Ning, on the other hand, did not know how to explain it to Black Panther. After all, everything that had happened was too strange and subversive. He paused for a moment and nodded to Black Panther."Big brother, I don't know what happened either. When I woke up, I was already fine.”After saying that, Chen Ning felt that his words were too far-fetched. Chen Ning was undoubtedly touched by Black Panther and treated him as a true brother. His clothes were not the same as before. They must have been corroded by the poison. The reason why he could wake up so quickly was firstly due to the Azulet Sword Art, and secondly, because Black Panther had applied high-quality medicinal herbs and pills on him.
Just as Chen Ning was about to tell Black Panther about the Azulet Sword Technique, Black Panther's face, which was originally filled with disbelief, turned into a smile of ecstasy. He quickly walked up to Chen Ning and patted his shoulders with both hands."Brother, you're really fine. This old brother isn't dreaming. Hahaha, I told you, I, Brother Black Panther, am blessed. How can I die? Pei, pei, pei…It's unlucky!" With that, Black Panther burst into laughter.
The more Black Panther behaved like this, the more Chen Ning felt that he was not human. How could I, Chen Ning, have such a brother when Big Brother Black Panther treated me so well? Thinking of this, Chen Ning immediately looked at the smiling Black Panther and said guiltily,"Big Brother Black Panther, there are actually some things that I have not told you. The reason why I can recover so quickly is because…" Just as Chen Ning was about to tell Black Panther everything, Black Panther's palm stopped in front of Chen Ning's face and interrupted Chen Ning's words."Younger brother, you don't have to be like this. I know you have your own secrets. I'm not a muddle-headed man. However, these are not important in my eyes. What's important is that we're brothers.”
Chen Ning was moved by Heibao's words. He had been an orphan in his previous life. Other than the dead dean and Uncle Li Dacheng, who had just arrived in this world, he had no other close friends. Chen Ning looked at Heibao and nodded heavily."Big brother, we are brothers, brothers for life.”
The two of them looked at each other and saw the deep brotherhood in each other's eyes. In an instant, they laughed out loud. Everything was said without words.
Just as the two of them were laughing, the tent flap was lifted. Hu Wen, who had been saved by Chen Ning, came to visit Chen Ning after waking up. When he saw Black Panther and Chen Ning, Hu Wen said happily,"Brother Chen Ning, you're awake. That's great.”"Hello, Captain!" After saying that, he looked happy and honest.
Chen Ning recognized Hu Wen. It was the mercenary he had saved yesterday. Hu Wen was about 1.7 meters tall, half a head shorter than Heibao and Chen Ning. He looked to be in his twenties and had an ordinary appearance. However, the smile on his face was sincere. His silly look made Chen Ning and Heibao feel a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and smiled at the two of them.
Chen Ning knew that his name was Hu Wen from Heibao's introduction. Chen Ning smiled and nodded to greet Hu Wen. Then, the three of them went out for breakfast. When they saw that Chen Ning had recovered completely today, all the mercenaries looked extremely surprised. Chen Ning understood the surprise in everyone's eyes and smiled without saying anything. Only Zhou Qing, who was not far away, was surprised when he saw that Chen Ning had recovered. Then, he rolled his eyes. He muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear clearly,"Looks like this Chen Ning isn't simple. He's either hiding his strength or he has some kind of treasure. The former is unlikely. There's nothing in our team that's worth his attention, so it must be the latter.”Although Zhou Qing did not know what treasure Chen Ning had, he had personally witnessed Chen Ning's two fatal injuries yesterday, yet he was completely fine. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person. Thinking of this, a sinister glint flashed across Zhou Qing's eyes, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. He also smiled and greeted Chen Ning and Black Panther.
After breakfast, everyone began to pack up and continue to move forward. Chen Ning had basically recovered by now. Other than some scabs on the surface of his body that had not fallen off, he was no longer in any serious condition. Naturally, there was no need to throw away the stretcher.
Following that, Black Panther led the team on their way to the Monster Mountain Range. The team traveled for a few hours. Hu Wen was unusually close to Chen Ning along the way. Perhaps it was because Chen Ning had saved his life, he kept chatting with Chen Ning. Chen Ning smiled wryly. He would occasionally reply to him at the beginning, but he did not stop talking after that. Chen Ning simply ignored him, but Hu Wen did not seem to care at all. He continued talking without stopping.
They did not encounter any demon beasts for several hours. Not only did Chen Ning find it strange, but even Black Panther and the other mercenaries were also puzzled. However, sometimes the silence in the Demon Beast Mountain Range did not mean safety. On the contrary, it was often accompanied by greater danger. Black Panther reminded everyone to be more careful. Chen Ning walked in the middle of the group, ignoring Hu Wen. His eyes flickered. His divine sense could already scan a radius of 70 to 80 meters. Chen Ning could clearly feel some subtle movements on both sides. From time to time, there would be demonic beasts hiding in the grass and watching Chen Ning and his group. However, for some reason, these demonic beasts would stop watching for a while and then leave. Chen Ning was puzzled. He couldn't help but think to himself," Could it be that these demonic beasts are afraid of attacking us because we have so many people?" However, that was not right. Yesterday, those demon beasts did not care about their group at all and quickly launched an attack.
After pondering for a while, Chen Ning couldn't help but ask Black Panther,""Big Brother, do you feel that something is wrong? We've been walking for so long, but we haven't encountered a single demonic beast.”
Chen Ning's words were undoubtedly what the confused crowd wanted to know. The group stopped and looked at Chen Ning and Black Panther. This was the first time Black Panther had encountered such a situation. He nodded and said,"Something is wrong. Did you discover something, brother?”
Chen Ning nodded. He walked to the front of the team and took out his long sword to cut down a few meters tall reeds and weeds. He pointed at a piece of grass that had been crushed to the ground and said to Black Panther,"Big brother, look, there was obviously a demon beast moving around here just now. It's not difficult to see from the broken roots of the weeds. It's been a while, and the broken roots are obviously still fresh, suggesting that this demon beast just left not long ago.”Hearing Chen Ning's words, Black Panther and the other mercenaries also walked towards Chen Ning. They saw that the place Chen Ning was pointing at was exactly as Chen Ning had said.
"Could it be that these demonic beasts saw that our team had more people and were afraid to leave? However, that shouldn't be the case. Demonic beasts were extremely ferocious by nature, especially first and second-tier demonic beasts. They basically had an instinctive hostility towards humans. How could this be? Something's wrong." Black Panther frowned slightly and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Captain, is it because this demonic beast just happened to leave when we came?”Zhou Qing had also left and explained. After that, Zhou Qing gave Chen Ning a meaningful look.
Chen Ning was observing the area with his divine sense, so he naturally knew about Zhou Qing's appearance and the profound look in his eyes. He was a little puzzled. Along the way, Chen Ning felt that Zhou Qing seemed to be staring at him from time to time from the back of the group. Although he did not know why Zhou Qing was staring at him, Chen Ning instinctively felt that Zhou Qing was looking at him with an unfathomable expression. He could not help but look at Zhou Qing, but the latter smiled at Chen Ning. This made Chen Ning even more suspicious. There must be something fishy going on. Chen Ning trusted his own feelings and could not help but secretly keep an eye on Zhou Qing.
Everyone thought for a long time but could not come up with a reason. Then, Black Panther patted Chen Ning's shoulder to signal that they did not need to worry. He ordered the entire team to continue moving forward. After walking for another ten minutes, they passed by an extremely dense tree branch. There was a strange movement from inside. Then, a black figure suddenly appeared and attacked Chen Ning and Black Panther.
As Chen Ning had been injured twice yesterday, Black Panther had been walking very close to Chen Ning. He was not too far away from Chen Ning. When he saw a black shadow appear, Black Panther immediately noticed it. They had not encountered a single demonic beast for a day, and everyone was itching for a fight. Black Panther laughed heartily and shouted," Everyone, be careful." After saying that, he held a spear in his hand. Then, he cut through the air and stabbed it at the panther that was charging at him.
