That faint spirit body seemed to show signs of dissipating, perhaps it had paid an extremely huge price.Although he and the little fox were like gra.s.shoppers on the same rope, Lu Chen still felt warm inside when he saw the little fox"s action.
"Little fox, are you alright?" Hurry and return to the Eye of Merit! " Lu Chen said anxiously.
"Lord, don"t worry. Little Fox is fine."
When the little fox returned to the Eye of Merit, Lu Chen did not hesitate and directly let it devour one of the yellow Merit Pearls.After the Merit Pearl entered the little fox"s body, the spirit body that was almost faint became a little more solid. It was no longer as weak as before.
Only then did Lu Chen relax. This time, it was all thanks to the little fox.In the past few days, his karmic power had risen to the third stage, but the little fox"s spirit body had yet to take shape.
Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple.If the merit power had risen from the yellow level to the green level, and then to a higher level, the little fox could have absorbed it, and there would have been a qualitative leap in power.
Currently, the little fox was having an extremely difficult time dealing with a few Quasi-Earth Stage experts. It could even be said that it had reached its limit.
If this continued, the gains would not make up for the losses. He still had to think of a way to raise the power of karmic virtue. That way, he wouldn"t be restricted like today.After settling down the little fox, Lu Chen returned his attention back to the purple pearl in his palm.
Recalling the dire situation from before, he couldn"t help but feel a lingering fear and was extremely terrified.
At that time, the black mist formed by the vengeful spirit contained the might of a Quasi-Earth Stage Peak Rank self-destruct. It was as if it wanted to destroy the heavens and the earth, wanting to burn everything together.
Fortunately, this purple jade bead was able to help him in time and completely absorb the black fog. Otherwise, he might really die here.
Rumble rumble rumble!At this moment, the tomb shook violently once again, interrupting Lu Chen"s memories and thoughts.
He immediately came back to his senses and realized that the tomb was still collapsing and that he had not escaped safely.Now was not the time to lament over it. It was imperative to hurry up and leave.
Lu Chen once again put away the purple beads. He quickly looked around and found that the only path was blocked by the five-meter-wide boulder.
At this moment, there were still rocks falling from above. Sooner or later, these rocks would completely seal this place up.
If he didn"t think of a way to leave this place, he would be buried alive here.
Huge rocks came crashing down on Lu Chen"s head one after another, like a huge hail storm.
The power of these stones was not that great. Although they would not be able to kill him with a single strike, if he were to be hit by them, he would definitely suffer greatly.
Lu Chen made a prompt decision. He immediately channeled the power of merit into his legs, and a thunderous explosion sounded out.Dark purple lightning coiled around his feet, and he suddenly stomped on the ground. A bolt of lightning flashed, and he instantly disappeared from where he stood.
Right now, he was getting more and more familiar with the movement technique of the Heavenly Thunder Steps.The stones above his head continued to fall. Lu Chen shuttled back and forth among them, dodging the rocks like a bolt of purple lightning.
Although he was safe for a moment now, Lu Chen understood that this wasn"t a long term solution.No matter how nimble the Heavenly Thunder Steps were, it was only a temporary measure. If the entire tomb collapsed, there would no longer be any room for escape. In the end, he would only be buried alive here.
He had to get rid of the obstacles in front of him and leave quickly. Lu Chen"s gaze fell on the five-meter wide boulder, and had a plan in his mind.
At this moment, without the support of the black fog, this boulder was nothing more than an ordinary stone.Although it was huge, it could no longer hinder Lu Chen.
Immediately after, Lu Chen"s figure flashed and appeared right in front of the huge boulder. His fists landed squarely on the rock as if it was a familiar road.Half-step Collapsing Fist!
Lu Chen was using this martial skill to conserve the energy of his contribution. After all, directly using the Thunder Palm Lightning to break it was too extravagant.
When Lu Chen"s fists landed on the surface of the rock, the rock began to crack at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In this half-step Collapsing Fist, Lu Chen had more or less mixed together some karmic power. This ordinary stone was simply unable to withstand his bombardment.
In addition, Lu Chen himself had already reached the low-grade Profound Rank. With his strength, how could he be stopped by a rock?
As the punches continued, the number of cracks increased.
… ….At the same time, Murong Xin`er, the Duanmu family, and the others did not go far from the tomb.
Everyone already felt the ground shake and the mountains shake. As the undulations became more and more intense, everyone present couldn"t help but worry.
Mr Lu has been in for so long, why hasn"t he come out yet? With such a big commotion, he was afraid something unexpected had happened!
"What"s going on? Master hasn"t come out yet, could he be in danger?"Zhang Junwei felt the ground beneath his feet tremble more and more, and a look of worry appeared on his face.
At the start, he had thought that Lu Chen had only encountered a few ordinary monsters in the tomb.However, hearing the continuous series of explosions, it seemed somewhat abnormal.
"Looks like the tomb is about to collapse. Mr Lu is still inside. Will there be any problems?"
Duanmu w.a.n.g"s eyes narrowed into a line and his brows creased into the shape of a mountain. He similarly spoke with a somewhat tense expression.He discovered that it wasn"t just the rumbling sounds coming from the depths of the tomb where Lu Chen was, but also the vague feeling that quite a few of the sounds were coming from the entrance of the tomb.
At this moment, everyone present speculated that there was a high possibility that even the vicinity of the tomb"s stone door had started to collapse, causing the entire mountain to tremble.
"But... But Brother Lu is still inside! I want to go in and find him! "
Murong Xin"er looked at the scene in front of her. Her heart was already in a mess, and she couldn"t hold back her worry any longer.
Murong Xin"er made her move without any warning, charging straight into the tomb, wanting to go in and rescue Lu Chen.
Almost at the same time, Duanmu w.a.n.g noticed Murong Xin"er"s actions and quickly moved.
Duanmu w.a.n.g"s movement technique was extremely fast. In just an instant, he appeared in front of Murong Xin"er and stopped her, not allowing her to take another step forward."Old man, why are you stopping me? What are you trying to do?"
Seeing Duanmu w.a.n.g Di blocking in front of her, Murong Xin"er"s gaze darkened. Immediately, she circulated her true energy throughout her body and was about to make a move.
Even the heart devouring bugs in her body kept emerging, covering the surface of her body.
He had the look of "if you keep blocking me then I"ll fight you to the death".
"Holy Maiden of the Five Poisons Tribe, if even Mr Lu is unable to solve the problem, then it would be useless even if you enter now!"
Duanmu Feng Hua immediately stood in front of Murong Xin"er and politely said, "If we rush in now, it might cause Mr Lu to fall behind. You better not let your impulses run wild and cause trouble instead!"
