I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 343 Containment
The space storm outside the world barrier was getting bigger and bigger, and it was getting more and more urgent. Zhang Chen had to stop practicing and get up to avoid it.

Fortunately, Zhang Chen escaped very quickly.

As Zhang Chen swallowed and exhaled the power of the spiritual storm, black sand continued to fall from Zhang Chen's Hum acupoint. As Zhang Chen swallowed more and more spiritual storms, the black sand gathered more and more. As the Yinfeng vortex swirled, the black sand turned into runes, which were constantly linked together to form chains of order. Then countless chains of order twisted and began to transform into a vortex. After a while, they gathered together in the Yinfeng vortex and gradually turned into a vortex.

A spinning weak vortex!

Resonating coaxially with the vortex of dark wind.

How could the black gravel be gravel? It was clearly a series of runes, the most basic vortex particles.

"Not bad, not bad! You actually managed to practice it. I just don't know what level of power this mental storm belongs to." Zhang Chen looked at the storm vortex in the Hengzhiqiao acupoint with a look of relief in his eyes.

Although the vortex of the mental storm was weak and only in its embryonic form, it already had a foundation. Later on, Zhang Chen's speed of devouring the mental storm would only get faster and faster. Zhang Chen was not far from cultivating the second stage of the Hesha magic.

There are two layers in the vortex. The outermost layer is a vortex of dark wind belonging to the underworld, and the innermost layer is a vortex of spiritual storm.

The outer vortex of dark wind rotates, driving the inner vortex of spiritual storm to rotate. At this time, the second level of the Hesha magic has already taken shape.

As the vortex of the mental storm formed, Zhang Chen's speed of swallowing the mental storm also began to accelerate suddenly. Zhang Chen did not need to make any special incantations. As long as Zhang Chen breathed, the vortex in his acupoints would automatically draw the power of the mental storm in the air into the acupoints, and be swallowed by the rotating vortex.

Zhang Chen kept retreating, and the mental storm was getting closer and closer. Finally, after ten days, Zhang Chen's acupoints vibrated, and the mental storm vortex was completely formed, turning into a completely stable form, fitting together with the Yin Wind vortex, and then gradually merging.

Although it is a fusion, it is also clearly distinguished.

"It's done!" Zhang Chen was delighted at this moment, sensing the vortex formed in the acupoint. Looking at the spiritual storm that was sweeping faster and faster in the distance, he turned into a vampire bat and ran away without saying a word.

Now the speed of the mental storm has reached three meters per breath, more than ten times faster than before.

Zhang Chen turned into a vampire bat and rushed out of the storm, running towards the entrance of the space. He didn't want to be caught in the turbulence of space and be buried with it.

"With the destruction of the first heaven, there must be some essence left behind. If we can obtain it, there is hope of opening up the human body world." The Great Freedom Demon ran out and muttered.

"Do you think I can fight against the spatial turbulence outside this world?" Zhang Chen asked back.

Although he had the Wind-Fixing Pill to prevent the mental storm from harming himself, by that time the entire first level of the spiritual world would have disappeared, and he would have been trapped in the endless turbulence of space. What was the difference between that and death?
"Of course I can't resist it." The Great Freedom Demon's voice was full of regret: "What a pity!"

The greatest advantage of Zhang Chen is that he is self-aware. He knows how big his stomach is and how many bowls of rice he needs to eat. Once his spiritual world is destroyed, the spiritual storm will turn into space turbulence. The Wind-Fixing Pill will then lose its effect, and Zhang Chen will inevitably be strangled in the space turbulence.

Zhang Chen walked all the way to the entrance, looked at the laborers and soldiers carrying things from afar, revealed his figure, pondered for a moment, gathered some wild grass to cover himself, put on a hat and walked towards the entrance.

He did not use the invisibility talisman. There were beings in the Yang God realm watching the entrance to the space, so his use of invisibility made him even more eye-catching.

Although Zhang Chen wanted to keep things peaceful, trouble still arose in the end.

Zhang Chen stepped out of the space passage, and as soon as he appeared, he saw a man who looked like a manager coming up and blocking Zhang Chen's way.

The steward blocked Zhang Chen, and dozens of people around him, also dressed like stewards, stood aside and watched.

"Brother, I am the manager of the Sun family. Have you obtained any good things in the fairyland? My Sun family is willing to purchase them at a premium." A middle-aged man in his thirties looked at Zhang Chen with a smile and said in a friendly manner.

"No! I got nothing! Only these grasses. Do you want them?" Zhang Chen looked at the Sun family manager who had gathered around and said slowly.

The Sun family steward saw Zhang Chen wearing a bamboo hat, looking as if he couldn't stand the light, and said with a smile:

"Of course! How about ten taels of silver?"

Ten taels of silver for a bundle of grass. Zhang Chen was stunned. No wonder those people would go to the spiritual world to work regardless of everything.

After the two sides settled the bill, Zhang Chen turned around and left without staying any longer.

However, Zhang Chen had not walked for long before he was stopped by a group of people in a wilderness.

He was a young man, who looked to be about twenty years old. He was wearing a white robe, and he remained spotless even in this desolate mountain.

The other person was as handsome as a jade, with no flaws on his beautiful face, and he looked like he was living a life of luxury.

Behind him followed dozens of armored warriors, standing respectfully behind him, blocking Zhang Chen's way.

"Please stay, sir." The young man stopped Zhang Chen and said with a smile.

Zhang Chen paused, glanced at the people in front of him, recalled what the Sun family manager had said before, and knew that trouble was coming.

"I haven't asked for your name yet?" the young man asked.

"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Chen asked.

Although he was afraid of Yangshen Zhenren being here and didn't want to cause trouble, he wasn't necessarily afraid of trouble. Jianxiaosi and Xie Lingyun were nearby, so he wasn't too afraid of trouble.

"You haven't answered my question yet." The young man said slowly, "My name is Gong Bao. You should know my origins by hearing my name! In order to avoid the trouble that follows, please take off your bamboo hat and tell me your name. If the power behind you is greater than mine, I will make amends and make way for you. If you don't have any background..."

"What if you have no background?" Zhang Chen frowned. "I'm going to search you!" Gong Bao smiled evilly, "In order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net and causing the mysterious object to be leaked, everyone leaving the Northland must be checked by us. Of course, if the power behind you is greater than mine, then even if I didn't say anything."

Zhang Chen was speechless when he heard this. He had been on high alert, but he never expected these powerful people to be so shameless and not give ordinary people any chance to take advantage of the situation.

And the guy opposite is even more of a snobbish one, he is simply the epitome of snobbery!

Gong Bao smiled and said, "In case you don't know your place and hurt the harmony, I have to remind you that as long as you don't have a big force behind you, you will be intercepted and searched by the big forces when you leave. The big families have set up a net in all directions. Even if you don't meet me, you will meet others. If you get the mysterious object, you will be forced to buy it. If you master the power of supernatural powers, you will be recruited as a thug by the big families!"

Zhang Chen didn't want to cause trouble, and he didn't want to be searched, so he looked at the young man in front of him and chose to lie: "I am from the Pingbian Palace. How dare you block my way?"

The most powerful forces in the north are the Pingbian Palace and the Inspection Office. Zhang Chen does not believe that the other party's power can be greater than that of the Pingbian Palace.

"Do you have any proof?" Gong Bao asked.

"No!" Zhang Chen replied.

"I'm sorry, but I have to search you!" Gong Bao waved his hand, signaling his soldiers to come forward and search you.

Zhang Chen frowned upon seeing this. He certainly couldn't allow himself to be searched because his slingshot and Golden Wind Flower would attract covetous attention once they were discovered.

So looking at the warriors surrounding him, Zhang Chen sighed softly and drew the long sword from his waist: "So we have no choice but to take action, right?"

Although the warrior was wearing armor, his movements were still agile and he tried to lock Zhang Chen's body joints.

If it were before, Zhang Chen might still find it difficult to deal with warriors in armor, but since he practiced the mountain-moving technique, he felt that he could do it again.

Although the initial stage of the Mountain Moving Technique only allows Zhang Chen to move a weight of 12,000 kilograms, rather than saying that Zhang Chen has the strength of 12,000 kilograms, he can still do a lot of things.

For example, when the soldier in front of him came towards Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen dodged the attack of the soldier in front of him, then grabbed the opponent's belt and directly performed the moving method. The soldier weighing only 200 kilograms was like a ball of cotton in his hand, and he smashed it directly towards another person.

Zhang Chen's blood control technique has evolved to the fifth level. His physical fitness far exceeds that of human warriors. Whether it is reaction speed or attack speed, coupled with ultrasonic waves, he has become a martial arts master.

The warrior had already developed great strength, but he had no power to resist in Zhang Chen's hands and was directly picked up by Zhang Chen and turned into a weapon.

Then there were the sounds of armor colliding and screams. Zhang Chen swung the armored soldiers with great force. Even though dozens of armored soldiers around him were wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, they could not get close to Zhang Chen at all.

"Use the crossbow! Kill him!"

After seeing Zhang Chen's actions, Gong Bao gave an order with a cold face, not caring at all about the life or death of the soldiers caught by Zhang Chen.

Dozens of warriors kept their distance and tried to draw their crossbows, but how could Zhang Chen give them the chance?

The armor in his hand was like a cannonball, accompanied by a whistling wind, and smashed towards the group of armored soldiers. Then Zhang Chen turned his body and pounced towards Gong Bao.

"You want to catch me?" Gong Bao shook his head, his eyes full of mockery. "My Gong family is born sacred, and we have mastered the power of the wind. How can a mortal like you understand it? Although you are a little more powerful, you are still a mortal, just a firefly."

Looking at Zhang Chen rushing towards him, Gong Bao stood where he was and grabbed at the void with his palm. The next moment, dozens of wind blades shot towards Zhang Chen silently.

He no longer held back and had already made a fatal move on Zhang Chen.

"Master the power of the gale?" Zhang Chen looked a little strange when he saw the other party's method.

What Zhang Chen fears least is the power of wind. Does he really think his Wind-Fixing Pill is just a decoration?

The wind blade was invisible and had no shape or whistling sound, making it truly impossible to guard against.

Zhang Chen did not block it, but let the wind blade pierce him and continued to pounce on Gong Bao. Gong Bao looked at Zhang Chen's actions and shook his head, then sneered: "Little ant, how ridiculous."

However, when the wind blade approached Zhang Chenmisu, the wind-fixing pill in his magic power flashed a faint light, and Gong Bao's wind blade dissipated directly.

The palace guard over there was waiting to see Zhang Chen being chopped into pieces, but he saw Zhang Chen actually rushed directly in front of him, and before the palace guard could react, Zhang Chen had already slapped the palace guard on the shoulder.

"Stop! Don't hurt the young master!"

The soldiers watching over there were horrified at the scene and rushed towards Zhang Chen, but it was too late.

"Ants!"

Facing Zhang Chen who was rushing towards him, Gong Bao remained calm. A green light shield appeared on his body surface, which was a strong gale transformed by the high-speed wind.

If Zhang Chen dared to place his hand on his shoulder, it would surely be shattered into pieces by the strong wind.

But at the moment when Zhang Chen's palm fell, the strong wind disappeared out of thin air. Before Gong Bao could react, Zhang Chen had already grabbed the opponent's shoulder, and the immobilization talisman turned into golden light and directly penetrated into the opponent's body.

Then Gong Bao was stunned, staring blankly at Zhang Chen in front of him, his eyes full of disbelief.
