Chapter 51

At this moment, the abnormal phenomena in the Fentian Mountain Range gradually disappeared, and Long Chen could also feel that the scorching heat of the ground beneath his feet was diminishing.

The two people in the battle must have seen the iron plate, which was the source of this heaven-defying flame, and at this point, they were fighting with bloodshot eyes!

"Chen Xiongzhou! Are you really courting death! I told you long ago, this time you should let me have it. If I get the benefit, you will naturally share in it!"

"Do you take me for a fool? If you get the benefit, the first thing you would do is kill me to silence me! This iron plate can cause such a great disturbance, how could it be something simple?"

"Fine! Fine! Since you insist on courting death, don't blame me, Feng Mingyang, for being ruthless!"

"Sharp Aura Punch!"

The two experts at the eighth level of the Dragon Vein Realm were now using their ultimate skills, fighting to the death!

Seeing their suddenly changing expressions, Long Chen also recalled the words of the old ancestor of the Yang family. In this world where martial arts were revered, trusting brothers too much would eventually come at a cost. Of course, if you met someone truly passionate, it would be different!

This battle was extremely fierce. The two experts at the eighth level of the Dragon Vein Realm were actually more powerful than Bai Zhanxiong. Fortunately, in this desolate beast domain, there was not much to destroy, otherwise, the scene of their battle would have been a mess!

The two were evenly matched, and the final outcome would depend on who reacted better. Feng Mingyang was much more agile than Chen Xiongzhou, so in the end, Chen Xiongzhou was finally killed with a punch, filled with infinite regret. At this moment, Feng Mingyang was also drenched in blood, clearly severely injured!

But thinking of finally defeating Chen Xiongzhou and being able to obtain that strange iron plate, his eyes immediately became hot.

"Chen Xiongzhou, I told you not to compete with me. You didn't know your place, and now you deserve to die! But don't worry, once I obtain this mysterious iron plate and my cultivation soars, I will take care of your wife and children! Your wife is more beautiful than mine!"

Spitting a few times at Chen Xiongzhou's corpse, Feng Mingyang was surprised to find that it was mixed with blood. He paused, then glared at Chen Xiongzhou with hatred before limping toward the mysterious iron plate.

Thinking of the iron plate, which had caused such a great disturbance, he became increasingly excited!

"This scoundrel, he was calling me brother just now, but now he killed the other person for the treasure and even has designs on the dead man's wife and children, Long Chen!"

Seeing Feng Mingyang act like this, Ling Xi felt indignant. Her big eyes in her small body showed disgust.

Seeing Ling Xi urging him to act, how could Long Chen not move? He was already in Dragon Soul Transformation, much stronger than Feng Mingyang, and suddenly appeared in front of him like a red whirlwind. The black iron plate was now behind Long Chen, and Feng Mingyang had to get past him to obtain it!

"Beast Warrior?!"

Feng Mingyang's eyes suddenly filled with shock, but seeing Long Chen blocking the iron plate he had worked so hard to get, his eyes turned wild. Despite his severe injuries, he attacked Long Chen fiercely.

"Still think you can win me?"

Long Chen smiled coldly. With the powerful Dragon Soul Transformation, his speed was greatly enhanced, making him more agile. Feng Mingyang was only a few meters away, so just as he was about to use his battle skills to attack Long Chen, he was punched away by Long Chen!

His internal organs were already severely injured, and this blow from Long Chen made him spit blood and fall to the ground, barely alive, unable to get up.

Thinking that he was so severely injured and in this desolate beast domain, if Long Chen didn't save him, he would definitely die, Long Chen, who had already injured him, had no reason to save him.

Struggling to stay alive, Feng Mingyang forced his eyes open, looking at Long Chen approaching, and said with regret, "Who... who are you?"

Seeing the intense regret in his eyes, Long Chen, who had been pretending to be a pushover for so long, sneered and canceled the Dragon Soul Transformation!

When Feng Mingyang saw Long Chen's appearance, he was first shocked and disbelieving, then intensely regretful. In this intense mental upheaval, he gasped for breath and soon died.

Long Chen looked at his corpse and smiled coldly, "It was you who wanted to kill me. Now you're just dead at the hands of Chen Xiongzhou. It's not my fault."

"Hey, he gave us the Dream Spirit芝, is it right to kill him like this?" Ling Xi was a bit hesitant.

"Not all kindness needs to be repaid. They just wanted to use benefits to get rid of me so they could get what they wanted. It's a transaction, nothing more."

Ling Xi's face darkened as she thought, "Then, when I saved you twice, and now you're finding the Dream Spirit芝 for me, is that a transaction?"

Long Chen was taken aback and said irritably, "Are you a donkey?"

"You are!"

"Alright... I won't argue with you, but Xiaoxi..."

Looking at the small figure on his shoulder, glowing faintly and enveloped in mist, Long Chen said softly, "If this is a transaction, I hope it continues, and never ends."

Ling Xi understood the meaning in Long Chen's words and her face turned red, whether from anger or shyness.

At this moment, Long Chen was already standing near the iron plate. Now the iron plate was completely silent, just a regular piece of iron. Long Chen picked up a stone and threw it at the iron plate.

Seeing no reaction, he cautiously touched the iron plate. To his surprise, it was somewhat cold.

Long Chen knew that the endless sea of fire had been unleashed by it. According to his estimation, this iron plate should have been very hot.

Now he examined the iron plate. On the front was a carved fiery sun, and nothing else.

"Ling Xi, do you know what this is? Is there anything strange about it?"

Ling Xi frowned and flew around the iron plate for a while before shaking her head, "I'm not sure. There's a powerful force inside, but it's sealed. This iron plate seems to be a key to the inheritance of some powerful figures from the Middle Ancient Era..."

"Middle Ancient Era? The era after the Ancient Era, with many sects and powerful families? It's said that the powerful figures of that era left many inheritances, and you mean it's true?"

"Indeed, but it's just a guess. You've only obtained a key, not the treasure, so it's not useful for now. Better to hide it and return to the Yang family as soon as possible."

Long Chen agreed and nodded, putting the iron plate into his spatial bag. Just as he was about to leave, he saw the corpses of Chen Xiongzhou and Feng Mingyang. They had just died, and the blood was still fresh. Long Chen, still in Dragon Soul Transformation, felt a surge of bloodlust, as if he had seen delicious food. His originally red eyes became even more bloodshot.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Long Chen's dazed expression, Ling Xi asked anxiously.

"They're already dead. This blood is being wasted. If I use Blood Cultivation to Qi, I could probably enhance my strength even further..."

Long Chen's tone was as if he was strongly restraining himself, but he couldn't help but express his desire.

In his body, the blood-red dragon shadows were roaring wildly, their mouths wide open, forming a powerful mental force, urging Long Chen to use Blood Cultivation to Qi on them...

Seeing Long Chen's abnormal state, Ling Xi suddenly pulled on the Ling Xi Sword, hurting Long Chen and snapping him out of it. She then said sternly, "Listen carefully, I have something to tell you..."

Long Chen didn't know what had happened. Seeing their corpses, his body had entered a very hungry state, and if Ling Xi hadn't been there, he might have refined their blood into true qi!

Actually, since obtaining the Blood Cultivation to Qi technique, Long Chen had always felt that using it on humans was inappropriate. This technique involved plundering and harming others to benefit oneself, which was too bloody and cruel.

Previously, with Bai Zhanxiong, it was because he hated him to the extreme.

Moreover, according to Long Chen's moral standards, plundering others' blood to strengthen oneself was not a good method. It was fine for beasts, but using it on humans would likely cause outrage.

"I don't know what kind of dragon blood you obtained from the ancient divine dragon, but it's probably an evil dragon. The Blood Cultivation to Qi technique is so bloody, clearly an evil dragon's technique. In Baiyang Town, it's fine, but in larger places, it's best not to use it openly, or the powerful figures will consider you evil and cripple you..."

"Moreover, using it too much might affect you. Blood-type divine dragons are usually filled with killing intent. I'm afraid you might lose yourself one day, so it's best to be cautious..."

Ling Xi's words were like a wake-up call to Long Chen.

When he obtained the Blood Cultivation to Qi technique, he was very excited and killed many underground blood lizards, but he didn't consider the impact on his character. Now, thinking about it, if he only wanted to become stronger and kept killing, he might really lose himself.

Moreover, steady progress in cultivation is very important. Such a method to rapidly increase true qi might also make his cultivation unstable. Thinking about this, Long Chen decided to use Blood Cultivation to Qi as little as possible. There are many ways to become stronger, and it's not necessary to use Blood Cultivation to Qi.

"Even if I use Blood Cultivation to Qi less, my speed of becoming stronger won't slow down!"

Seeing Long Chen change his mind, Ling Xi's worries dissipated. She smiled, "That's best. Let's return to Baiyang Town now. I estimate the Yan Shen Fruit will ripen in about eight days, but there might be some deviation..."

"..."

Long Chen's curses echoed in the Fentian Mountain Range...
