Dragon Blood Mountain Range.
The air was gloomy yet tinged with crimson, very humid; giant trees reaching the skies stood densely packed, blocking all sunlight.
The ground was moist yet soft.
Su Chen plunged into the Dragon Blood Mountain Range.
His body was covered in fresh blood, his complexion pale as wax paper, he had lost too much blood...
Managing to walk all the way from Wind Chant City to the Dragon Blood Mountain Range was actually a testament to his willpower.
Su Chen halted, carefully placing Ling Long on the ground, then sat down.
"Jiuyou, I need to rest!" Su Chen communicated with Jiuyou, his voice hoarse and weak.
"Sure, rest first. This should be the outer layer of the mountain range, and not too dangerous. You focus on healing; I’ll also help keep an eye out for us!"
Su Chen did not speak again, instead, he took out the Zixuan Stones!!!
Hundreds of Zixuan Stones.
In the following time, Su Chen frantically absorbed the Zixuan Stones, feeling as if he would burst every time he absorbed ten or twenty pieces, yet he kept on going, transforming the overflowing Spiritual Energy Flow into Mysterious Qi and Blood Qi, recklessly directing it towards his right hand and both legs.
He was relying on the accumulation of this Mysterious Qi and Blood Qi to regrow his arms and legs.
Su Chen seemed tireless, with no breaks, and as time passed, one could see the terribly mangled stubs of his arms and legs slowly extending, much like young sprouts growing.
This was the regrowth of his limbs.
But, the process was excruciating.
After all, it was regenerating flesh, extending the skeleton, reconstructing the meridians.
How could it not hurt?
Better dead than alive.
Sweat poured down Su Chen’s forehead, his teeth grinding incessantly, and even the capillaries on his neck and face began to bleed due to the sheer pain and ferocity.
But, even with such pain, he dared not pause or faint.
He was a divine healer, quite aware that during the process of limb regrowth, one should not stop, rest, or interrupt the process; otherwise, there would definitely be lingering effects.
Su Chen would not allow himself even a hint of such effects.
A day and a night passed.
Su Chen’s arms and legs had regrown, but he didn’t stop there; he continued to solidify them...
Another half day went by.
He finally opened his eyes, a trace of relief flashing through them.
He tested his newly regrown hands and feet.
Moreover, his originally shattered organs and many external injuries had also completely healed.
It’s worth mentioning that during this time, Su Chen had absorbed six hundred pieces of Zixuan Stones in one go!!!
With so many Zixuan Stones absorbed, his Mysterious Qi Realm had also been boosted.
Heavenly Eminent at Noble Peak Stage.
From Mid-phase Honorable Realm to the Noble Peak Stage of the Heavenly Eminent, the breakthrough speed was unimaginable.
However, for Su Chen, this did not excite him much, because his hidden cards and points of reliance were, in fact, "True Fire Body Refinement" and the Divine Mansion.
The breakthrough in the Mysterious Qi Realm was merely icing on the cake.
"There’s been some improvement in strength, roughly doubled," Su Chen murmured to himself.
His strength had suddenly doubled, yet he felt neither excitement nor thrill, even a bit dissatisfied. If other Martial Cultivators knew this, they would probably think about killing him...
For Su Chen, if "True Fire Body Refinement" could breakthrough to the second layer, his strength could increase tenfold, twentyfold. If the Divine Mansion could be upgraded by one level, his strength could increase thirtyfold or even fiftyfold.
In comparison, increasing strength by doubling through the Mysterious Qi Realm truly was insignificant.
Another point was Su Chen’s comparison of his current self to Xu Zhenxiong.
His current self, utilizing all his hidden cards, should have combat power roughly equivalent to an ordinary Hollow Void Realm Sixth Rotation Early Stage Martial Cultivator.
Compared to Xu Zhenxiong, he was still an ant!!!
"Xu Zhenxiong..." A trace of cold ice flashed in Su Chen’s eyes as he muttered, "Next time we meet, I will kill you with my own hands!"
In the same second, Jiuyou spoke, "Young boy Su, do you really plan to kill Xu Zhenxiong?"
