Chapter 1032: Chapter 1004 Black Rope Hell

"Earth Level has eight minor realms. Each realm is a step forward, and with each step, the power undergoes significant changes."

"Earth Level is also Hell Level, and each rank means stepping into another hell."

"Where I stand now is in the Living Hell, so the next step is the Black Rope Hell."

Such thoughts constantly wandered in Li Chen’s mind.

For him, the barrier before the minor ranks had completely ceased to exist.

As someone with a Lucid Body, as long as the insight is sufficient, one can break through without any restriction.

During his time in this world, Li Chen was not only recovering from injuries, but also constantly cultivating and absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy for his own use.

In this world where the spiritual energy is even more abundant than in the Enchanted World, Li Chen felt a completely different experience from when he cultivated before.

It was a feeling like ... each time he absorbed it, it was akin to a whale swallowing.

An endless stream of spiritual energy filled his body.

Beside him, there were quite a few energy stones.

Of course, these were taken from Earth Demon Ancestor Elvis.

With the originally dense spiritual energy, coupled with the aid of these spirit stones, Li Chen could feel his cultivation progressing step by step.

The so-called Eight Great Hells actually appear as eight gates within the body after stepping into Earth Level.

For ordinary cultivators, each breakthrough requires exerting all effort to push open these gates, but Li Chen didn’t need to do that.

Because for someone with a Lucid Body, these gates are always open.

Just walk through them.

"Snap!"

As if water flowed naturally, the True Qi within Li Chen’s body crossed the threshold from Living into Black Rope with a terrifyingly stable speed.

From this point on, Li Chen is no longer the most basic level of Living, but a true Black Rope Hell expert.

"Hmm?"

It wasn’t until Li Chen slowly awakened from his slumber that he realized, at some point, there was another person in his room.

At this moment, this person was cautiously standing by his side, seemingly very uncomfortable.

"Cherie, what are you doing?" With eyes slowly opening, Li Chen asked with a smile.

Cherie stood by, and on the table beside her, there was some food. However, Cherie’s face was slightly red, and there were strands of sweat on her forehead, making her look uncomfortable.

Seeing Cherie’s flushed face, Li Chen was momentarily surprised but then understood.

He slightly opened his mouth, and an unparalleled strong suction came from his mouth.

In an instant, the exceptionally dense spiritual energy hovering in the room was swallowed by him.

"Phew—"

Only when Li Chen absorbed the excess spiritual energy in the room to a level similar to outside, did Cherie finally let out a long breath and sat down beside him.

"Brother Cheen, were you cultivating? It looked so scary; I felt like I was suffocating!" Cherie said softly.

Li Chen smiled. With his current strength, such spiritual energy was almost necessary for cultivation, but for Cherie, who had just stepped into Yellow Rank, it was a bit excessively dense.

It’s like someone who normally only drinks beer being suddenly given a bottle of seventy-degree liquor, they would feel overwhelmed.

"Once your cultivation improves, it won’t be like this." Li Chen said with a smile.

At this moment, Cherie stared at Li Chen: "But I don’t like cultivating; I think being a professional pharmacist is fine."

Upon hearing this, Li Chen shook his head helplessly.

A strange silence suddenly fell between the two.

For some reason, both suddenly stopped talking, and the atmosphere turned a bit peculiar.

In this oddity, Cherie seemed to muster courage, slowly moving closer to Li Chen, until he could faintly smell her scent.

Li Chen felt a bit conflicted inside.

To be honest, he also had quite a good impression of this girl.

However, when it came to women, Li Chen was already quite troubled. If he messed around here, his family back home might strip him several layers.

Luckily, at this moment, a commotion came from outside the room, interrupting the peculiar and ambiguous atmosphere inside.

Li Chen immediately stood up: "Something seems to have happened outside; I’ll go have a look."

Cherie didn’t get up but watched Li Chen’s departing figure with slightly resentful eyes.

"What’s wrong?"

"Someone’s injured!"

The place where Li Chen stayed earlier was a house resembling a tree hole.

In the gathering place of the Elf Race, almost all the elves lived in such tree-hole houses.

Moreover, the trees here were incredibly thick and tall.

Based on Li Chen’s estimation, in this place that served as the elves’ gathering area, even the smallest trees would require seven or eight people to wrap their arms around fully.

And at the center stands the giant tree known as the ’Tree of Life’ by the elves.

Its size was indescribable even by Li Chen.

He only knew that standing under this ’Tree of Life,’ he felt as tiny as an ant.

When Li Chen walked out of the tree-hole house, he saw a group of elves gathered together not far off.

At the center of the elves was a male elf with a somewhat pale face.

In the Elf Race, most elves were female; male elves were even considered rare creatures. And now, this male elf’s condition clearly wasn’t good.

On his abdomen was a long wound as if torn by some beast, deep enough to reach the bone. Although he had temporarily stopped the bleeding himself, it was clear if he didn’t receive treatment soon, it was truly dangerous.

"He’s gravely injured; we must quickly tend to the wound!" An elf said with a frown.

As she spoke, a series of bright green lights flashed across her hands.

And as these bright green lights appeared, the wound began to heal rapidly at a visible pace.

Yet even so, the male elf’s pale face showed no sign of change.

Li Chen stood aside, observing for a while, then suddenly approached and grasped the hand of the elf healing the male elf: "Stop."

"Human! Are you trying to kill him?" Having her healing forcibly interrupted, the elf healer glared angrily at Li Chen.

At the same time, many surrounding elves also looked angrily at Li Chen.
