Armor: I started with Watt at my peak

"It seems that my guess is correct. This is really the reward for the final level. Hmm... that's almost it. I didn't expect to have such a gain. My qi and blood have condensed." At this time, Li Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes, feeling the changes in his body.

The blood vapors transformed from the flesh and blood beasts he had killed previously had all been absorbed and refined by him, and the blood and qi in his body seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation.

From the perspective of body training, the human body is divided into essence, qi, and spirit. Essence is the skin, flesh, tendons and bones, qi is the blood, and spirit is the spirit and soul.

Many people think that physical training can only make the body stronger, and therefore think that the soul of a physical cultivator is poor. But in fact, if the spirit, energy and spirit are one, and the body is strong, the soul will not be that bad, especially the will.

The body and soul are complementary. If the body is strong, a strong soul is needed to control the body. If the soul is strong, a stronger body is needed to support it.

Therefore, when the physical body becomes strong, it will also benefit the soul, and vice versa.

Now Li Chen's blood and energy have undergone a transformation, and naturally his soul has also been fed back and improved.

"My blood... has become more solid?" Li Chen looked inward with his spiritual consciousness, and saw the changes in the blood in his body. Not only did the total amount of blood increase, the blood became more vigorous, but also the blood became much more solid than before.

For example, not only has the capacity of Li Chen's blood increased from 100% to 150%, but every bit of his blood has also transformed from the density of stone to the density of iron.

hum...

In order to verify his idea, Li Chen waved his hand, and a pool of crystal blood dripped out automatically and fell to the ground. Then, a burnt pit as small as a marble was burned on the ground.

Boom!

Li Chen's mind moved, and all the blood in his body burst out. Red blood steam boiled instantly, covering an area of ​​three or four meters around him.

Wherever the blood and qi passed, the grass and trees turned into scorched earth. Then Li Chen gathered the blood and qi in his hand and punched the ground. When the smoke dissipated, a large pit three or four meters deep and five or six meters wide had formed under his feet.

"Is the power of Qi and blood amplification so outrageous?" Li Chen saw clearly that the spatial density of this world was obviously stronger than that of the outside world.

That is to say, in the outside world, this punch of his could probably create a seven or eight meter deep pit. Then, Li Chen withdrew his blood power. This improvement did give him a surprise.

According to the classification of physical cultivators, his pure physical strength has reached the middle stage of foundation building. Taking into account his magic power, his strength can reach the late stage of foundation building.

However, in Li Chen's perception, his pure physical strength did not increase. The power brought by the transformation of qi and blood was no less than the added magic power.

Among the essence, energy and spirit, one's physical body and blood have already transformed. The next step should be to further strengthen the physical body until it feeds back to the soul. According to the progress of physical cultivation, when the essence, energy and spirit are united, there will be a great transformation.

"This is the harvest I've gained in the first level, so it's time to move on." After recovering a little strength, Li Chen explored in the direction where the bloody monster had rushed from before.

At first, Li Chen only saw the footprints of strange beasts left on the ground and found nothing else. Even the spiritual detection did not detect anything.

But after he advanced for about a few kilometers, the environment was completely different. The terrain had not changed, but there was a thick layer of gray fog covering it. With the naked eye, Li Chen couldn't even see the surrounding scene within a hundred meters.

"Fortunately, I have touched the threshold of the Yuanying-level Thunder Law, which has elevated my soul to the late stage of foundation building. Otherwise, I would be blind now."

hum...

With the spiritual sense detection launched and assisted by the power of wood and earth laws, Li Chen's field of vision suddenly expanded to a diameter of seven to eight kilometers.

However, even after using his spiritual sense to detect, Li Chen did not find anything different. There was nothing else except this layer of thick fog.

Next, Li Chen slowed down a bit and continued to move forward, at only twice the speed of sound. This was indeed very slow for him who was used to moving at thousands or tens of thousands times the speed of sound.

This time, after Li Chen had walked for hundreds of kilometers, he finally stopped and said, "Is this... a river in front? This color should be blood, a river of blood... That bridge, why does it feel so familiar?"

Looking around, this blood-red river that was more than ten meters wide lay in front of Li Chen, and there was a dark red wooden arch bridge spanning the two banks.

If it was just a river of flowing blood, Li Chen would not be so surprised, but this wooden bridge was so familiar that what came to his mind at this moment was: Naihe Bridge.

"This level should require us to cross the blood river, but is that all?" Looking at the lifeless blood river and the dark red wooden bridge isolated between the two banks, Li Chen knew that it would not be that easy to pass.

No matter what, I have to go over and take a look first. Just like that, Li Chen drew out the Qingyun Sword and rushed to the dark red wooden bridge at full speed.

boom!

In an instant, a strong pressure suddenly rose up, pressing Li Chen so hard that his whole body trembled: "I knew it wouldn't be that simple. It's equivalent to a gravity field five times that of the outside world. It's fierce enough."

However, for Li Chen, whose pure physical body has reached the middle stage of foundation building, this is just adding weight, and his movements will be slow. If it weren't for the soul-sealing formation, Li Chen could have directly ignored this gravity field.

roar roar...

Just as Li Chen was about to move forward and cross the wooden bridge, the lifeless blood river "moved". The blood river that was originally flowing slowly suddenly surged.

Under the dark red wooden bridge, the bloody river water rolled and churned, and then condensed into bloody men. These bloody men had no other facial features but only mouths, which was very creepy.

Watching the bloody men gradually taking shape, Li Chen had already gathered his strength and was waiting for these bloody men to launch an attack.

"Come on, Demon Slaying Technique, command!" The Qingyun Sword turned in Li Chen's hand and killed the bloody people who climbed up the wooden bridge along the river bank. These bloody people were tall, about three meters tall, with hands over the knees, legs bent, and walked like monkeys.

puff!

But Li Chen slashed with his sword horizontally, cutting off the bloody man's long curved legs, and then slashed with another sword diagonally, cutting through the bloody man's shoulders and arms.

The bloody man should have lost his balance and fallen to the ground, but in Li Chen's surprised eyes, his chopped-off limbs turned into blood and grew back on his torso, as good as new.

"What the hell, how can it recover without any damage after regeneration? There will be some damage after all, right? There is no bloody water being mobilized from the blood river, which means it is repairing itself."

Then, Li Chen swung his sword at these bloody men again, and swung dozens of times in a row, but the result was the same. The bloody men recovered after just a moment.

The current situation is very stalemate. Even though Li Chen can easily destroy the bodies of these blood men to stop them from moving forward, his speed is slowed down by the high-pressure gravity and he has no way to directly escape the siege of the blood men and rush to the other side.

Of course, if Li Chen wanted to, he could use the power of the laws to pass through quickly.

However, this level should be set according to the strength of the foundation-building level. It would be meaningless to use the rules, as it would not serve the purpose of a test.

"Wait, if what I'm thinking is correct, then these guys are all made up of Qi and blood. It seems... I need to give them some shocks, break them for me!"

After putting away the magic weapon Qingyun Sword, Li Chen thought about it, and the mighty blood in his body suddenly burst out, and the area within three or four meters around him was all covered by blood-colored steam. In an instant, those blood people who came into contact with Li Chen's blood began to be vaporized.

Just like cold water coming into contact with extremely hot fire, the river water that made up the blood man quickly evaporated, like a ghost encountering the scorching sun.

"Roar... Roar, roar, roar!" The blood people affected by Li Chen's blood and energy let out deafening roars. If it were a weaker-willed challenger, his soul would be affected.

"In that case, evaporate it all, go!" Li Chen exerted his strength, his blood and energy became more surging, evaporating all the "river water" in the bloody body.

After a while, Li Chen slowly withdrew his Qi and blood power, and no more bloody people appeared around him. The bloody river under the bridge returned to calm and flowed slowly. It was as if all this had never happened, and it was as quiet as before.

bass……

A strange sound was heard, and then the thick gray fog covering the area dissipated, and the scene on the other side of the bloody river appeared directly in front of Li Chen.

It was a pavilion also made of dark red wood, but without any seats, and instead had a blood-red step in the center.

"Does this mean I've passed the level? Let's go and take a look at the reward for this level." Seeing this, Li Chen rushed directly to the other side of the bloody river.

When he looked behind him again, he found a stone tablet with three large characters engraved on it - Mingyan River!

After taking a look at the stone tablet, Li Chen looked at the pavilion again. When he walked into the pavilion, he instantly felt the endless heat coming. Moreover, this was not the high temperature of the flame, but the temperature of the extremely powerful Qi and blood.

"Such a strong Qi and blood force. This is at least the Qi and blood that a physical cultivator at the Golden Core Realm can possess. It is so vast, could it be..."

With his spiritual sense exploring, Li Chen saw the source of the scattered Qi and blood. Under the blood-colored steps, there was a huge lake with endless "magma". These were all compressed and condensed Qi and blood!

Going deeper, Li Chen saw that these surging blood and energy were extracted from the blood-colored river.

No wonder the water in the Blood River flows slowly, it is because the surging blood and energy essence in it has been extracted under the pavilion. No wonder it is called the Dark Flame River.

"What do you mean? Do you want me to go up?" Just as Li Chen was thinking, the surging power of qi and blood directly enveloped the entire pavilion, and a pushing force emerged behind him.

Seeing this, Li Chen did not resist, but secretly prepared the fully-charged Star Lock. Once something went wrong, he would immediately activate the Star Lock to amplify himself and force his way out of the pavilion.
