Two months later, three streaks of light descended into this sea area.
As the light dispersed, three figures appeared.
Two n and one woman!
The young girl, dressed in green clothes, had delicate features and held a compass engraved with strange inscriptions in her pale, tender hands.
She stared at the compass, her brows slightly furrowed, and murmured to herself, "Strange, it should be right here, how could it be gone?"
The man in white stepped forward and asked, "Junior Sister, what’s wrong? Could we be in the wrong place?"
The man in black looked around and suddenly his pupils shrank sharply.
"Look quickly, what is that?"
The girl in green and the man in white went forward to check and both were taken aback.
"This seems to be the arm bone of a one-eyed sea monster!"
The man in white and the man in black both turned to look at the girl in green.
"One-eyed sea monster?"
The girl in green nodded and said, "Mhm, my mother told that during her travels in the Human World, she found this Linglong Fruit before it was ripe, so she sealed it inside a barrier. Back then, there was a Third-grade Demon Beast, a one-eyed sea monster, guarding it!"
After speaking, she looked down again at the compass in her hand.
"There are traces of the barrier’s collapse here. Soone got here before us!"
Upon hearing the girl in green’s words, both the man in black and the man in white could not help but beco furious.
"Damn it, if I find out who took Junior Sister’s Linglong Fruit, I’ll skin them alive!"
However, before their words fell, a streak of purple lightning suddenly appeared in the distance.
It was a clear day with no clouds for miles; it couldn’t be natural lightning.
That leaves only one explanation—soone had made a breakthrough!
The girl in green, the man in black, and the man in white exchanged a look.
The man in black, the most impetuous of the three, was the first to speak, "Let’s go and have a look!"
The girl in green, staring at the lightning in the sky, appeared sowhat hesitant.
"Senior Brother Hei Fang, look at the ferocity of that lightning; it ans the other party is at least a powerhouse in the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt. Both of you are at Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt, and I have only just entered the Foundation Establishnt Stage. Even if the three of us team up, we might not stand a chance against them, right?"
Junior Sister Lvng, you’re underestimating ," he said.
After speaking, he forcefully summoned his True Yuan, and dazzling golden light shot up into the sky. The calm sea also stirred up a wave of shocking billows.
Seeing this, the beautiful eyes of the girl known as Lvng couldn’t help but sparkle.
"Senior Brother Hei Fang, when did you reach the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt?"
Hei Fang replied with a proud smile, "I had already made my breakthrough before coming here. Otherwise, how could Master and Mistress feel at ease letting Junior Sister go out alone?"
"Congratulations on your breakthrough to the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt, Senior Brother!"
Although that’s what was said, a faint shadow of gloom passed through the eyes of the man in white.
His na was Bai Heng, and along with Hei Fang and Lvng, he was a disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect.
Moreover, both he and Hei Fang were simultaneously courting the Sect Leader’s daughter, their Junior Sister Lvng. Never did he expect that Hei Fang would advance to the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt before him.
It seed that he too had to step up his efforts to catch up. Otherwise, the position of the future Sect Leader of the Immortal Sword Sect and the favour of Junior Sister might all fall into the hands of Senior Brother Hei Fang.
"Don’t worry, Junior Sister. As long as I’m here, no one can harm you!"
Hei Fang quite enjoyed the feeling of being admired, imdiately thumping his chest and swearing a solemn promise.
"Let’s go, I want to see who’s got the guts to steal the Linglong Fruit from our Immortal Sword Sect!"
Having said that, Hei Fang, Bai Heng, and Lvng transford into three streaks of light and flew towards the direction of the lightning strike.
At the sa ti:
Li Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, held his hands in the air above his head, creating a vortex of light that devoured the power of the lightning.
Only after the lightning was completely devoured did he suddenly open his eyes, shooting out two awe-inspiring beams that pierced through heaven and earth.
"Breaking through the bottleneck, advancing to Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt!"
Li Chen carefully inspected his body, finding that both the toughness of his physique and the richness of his True Yuan had significantly improved compared to two months ago.
Although he still couldn’t withstand a nuclear strike, he wouldn’t be as miserable as he was two months ago.
Just as Li Chen was about to stand up, his ears twitched slightly.
Soone is coming!
In the blink of an eye, Hei Fang, Bai Heng, and Lvng, three figures had already appeared in front of Li Chen.
Hei Fang looked surprised upon seeing Li Chen.
"You’re not from the Overseas Immortal Sect?"
Li Chen did not answer their question but instead retorted, "Are you from the Overseas Immortal Sect?"
Hei Fang replied with an arrogant face, "Indeed, we are from the Immortal Sword Sect. Now, I ask you, was it you who picked the Linglong Fruit?"
To this, Li Chen did not hide anything. He nodded and said, "It was . So what, do you have a problem with that?"
Lvng pressed on with another question: "Where’s the Linglong Fruit then?"
Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, I ate it!"
Lvng beca frantic and shouted loudly, "But the Linglong Fruit was first discovered by our Immortal Sword Sect, why did you eat it?"
Faced with her aggressive questioning, Li Chen’s response was short and to the point, just three words long.
"I felt like it!"
Infuriated, Lvng’s chest heaved rapidly and her teeth gnashed audibly.
"Hei Fang Senior Brother, Bai Heng Senior Brother, kill him for !"
Before Lvng’s words hit the ground, Bai Heng stepped forward and said coldly, "Junior Sister, he has only just advanced to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt. I alone am enough to deal with him; there’s no need for Senior Brother Hei Fang to take action!"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Heng struck out with a palm, like the Ancient Great Mountain, bombarding towards Li Chen.
"This is the Crack Stele Seal. Seeing the montum of this palm, it won’t be long before Senior Brother Bai Heng breaks through his bottleneck and advances to the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt!"
Upon seeing Bai Heng’s palm technique, Lvng exclaid in shock.
If she had consud the Linglong Fruit, she could have quickly advanced to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt and narrowed the gap with her two Senior Brothers. Yet, never in her wildest dreams did she expect all of her plans to be ruined by this detestable guy.
With these thoughts, the look in her eyes towards Li Chen held a bit more resentnt. She wished for nothing more than for him to drop dead on the spot.
"Perfect, I’ll use you three to practice and see just how strong I am?"
As he spoke, Li Chen, not to be outdone, swung his fist like a mountain and swiftly t the attack.
"Boom!"
Fist and palm collided mid-air, the ferocious True Yuan rampaging through the surroundings.
Li Chen’s enormous fist, like a train thundering through a tunnel, imdiately punched a hole through Bai Heng’s palm technique.
"Pfft!"
Bai Heng got knocked back, his blood churning violently, spewing out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Seeing this scene, both Hei Fang and Lvng were shocked.
From the situation just now, Li Chen had only just advanced to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt, seemingly weaker than Bai Heng.
But who could have thought that in just an instant, Bai Heng had already been defeated.
Bai Heng was furious and was ready to charge forward again.
However, he was stopped by Hei Fang.
"Bai Heng Junior Brother, although this lad’s cultivation is not high, his Cultivation Technique is imnsely powerful. You are no match for him; let handle this!"
The reason Bai Heng had made the first move was to showcase his prowess in front of Junior Sister Lvng, so that he wasn’t completely overshadowed by Hei Fang. But, to his dismay, not only did he fail to show off his skills, but he also made a fool of himself. How could he not be furious?
However, he quickly cald down. Realizing he was no match for his opponent, continuing would only lead to further embarrassnt. It would be better to let Hei Fang wear down the opponent’s strength. When both parties were heavily injured, he would then take his turn to regain his face.
After internally devising his wishful plan, he shouted to Hei Fang: "Senior Brother Hei Fang, be careful, this guy’s punch is extrely tricky!"
However, Hei Fang was dismissive, snorting arrogantly, "Hmph, so what if his punch is tricky? He is rely at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt. I am at the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt, utterly outclassing him by a level. No matter how strong he is, he cannot turn the tide!"
Having said that, Hei Fang suddenly lifted his foot and strutted forward.
The rocks beneath his feet started to sink due to the unbearable pressure, causing the surrounding ground to show a dense web of cracks like a spider’s web.
Seeing this scenario, Li Chen’s eyebrows slightly raised.
"Late-stage Foundation Establishnt, finally soone worth my attention!"
If we’re talking about cultivation, Yuann Family Ancestor is at the Peak of Foundation Establishnt Late Stage, surely suppressing Hei Fang by a notch. But in terms of the purity of True Yuan, he probably doesn’t even have half as much as him.
Moreover, these people are from the Overseas Immortal Sect. There, Spiritual Power is abundant, and Magical Treasures are nurous. Since these people are disciples of the Immortal Sect, they certainly have nurous life-saving trump cards in their hands.
Thinking of this, the fighting spirit in Li Chen’s eyes grew even more intense!
"Co on, today, let properly gauge the weight of your Overseas Immortal Sect!"
