Chapter 1096: Chapter 1068: Li Chen’s True Strength!

"Destroy it?"

Li Chen’s voice didn’t hide his intentions, and Miao Zheng heard it, sneering coldly: "Boastful talk, Myriad Gu can infinitely evolve according to the opponent’s situation until it becomes the most perfect state against its enemy. No matter how strong you are, Myriad Gu will adapt and eventually kill you!"

"Is that so?" Li Chen calmly looked at Miao Zheng: "What if I destroy it before it adapts to me?"

Miao Zheng hesitated for a moment, then sneered again: "Do you possess such ability? Then show me!"

Li Chen gave Fan Bayin a glance, and Fan Bayin hesitated.

He was not worried about Li Chen’s life or death; he was more concerned about himself.

After all, the pill Li Chen gave him had been a nagging concern for him, and after Li Chen left, he had also checked his own body but found no abnormalities.

Precisely because of this, he became even more cautious and dared not act rashly.

A poison undiscoverable even to an Earth-level expert—how formidable must it be?

Li Chen understood Fan Bayin’s concerns, shook his head, and said, "Don’t worry, I’m not stupid, I won’t act recklessly. If I can’t beat it, I can still escape. I’ll remove your poison after I return, but for now, please lead them away. A big battle is coming, and I might not be able to look after them."

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Fan Bayin finally felt a bit reassured: "Alright. But make sure you don’t die; I’m still young and don’t want to be buried with you."

Li Chen looked at the guy with some helplessness. While considering a martial artist’s lifespan, Fan Bayin could indeed be described as young, but in Li Chen’s eyes, this guy surely wasn’t young.

"Fine, hurry up and leave! Otherwise, don’t blame me if you get injured by accident during the fight!" Li Chen’s voice sank.

"Nonsense, accidental injury..."

Before Fan Bayin could finish his words, a terrifying aura made his hair stand on end, emanating from Li Chen’s body.

At this moment, he felt the person standing beside him was no longer Li Chen, but a dreadful monster brimming with murderous intent.

The intense killing intent made him feel a chill down his spine.

Without further ado, Fan Bayin turned and ran.

At this moment, he finally understood that Li Chen’s claim to destroy Myriad Gu was not mere bragging; he truly had that ability!

"This guy has been hiding his strength all along!"

Summoning the ghost spirit, not allowing An Cheng and the others to resist, Fan Bayin immediately sprinted into the distance, as if he couldn’t bear to stay here a second longer.

Because he knew very well that soon, this place would become a battlefield for real monsters.

"King of the Netherworld. Now that the small fry are gone, you should show how you’ll destroy my Myriad Gu, shouldn’t you?" Miao Cheng ridiculed Li Chen with a cold smile.

"Rest assured, you will soon see." Li Chen’s voice suddenly became a bit hoarse.

Inside Li Chen’s body, True Qi suddenly transformed into flame, burning within his veins.

And it was because of the intense pain brought by this burning that his voice became like this.

Simultaneously, accompanied by this intense pain, the blood originally circulating slowly in Li Chen’s body began to boil.

Under the incredulous gaze of Miao Zheng and others, Li Chen’s hair suddenly extended until reaching his back.

And his hair color completely transformed from black to blood-red at this moment.

Most terrifying was that Li Chen’s body was undergoing strange changes.

Li Chen’s original physique was quite well-proportioned, but now his body began to expand bizarrely.

In several blinks, a nearly two-meter-tall monster enveloped in a blood-red glow appeared before Miao Cheng, others, and Myriad Gu.

"I still somewhat dislike this form." After completing the transformation, Li Chen’s voice seemed to become more robust due to the change in his physique.

"I now understand how Li Xinmei felt back then." An odd thought suddenly emerged in Li Chen’s mind.

Of course, he didn’t continue this train of thought.

Because at this moment, Myriad Gu was already screeching as it charged toward him.

"Since my cultivation breakthrough, I haven’t fought with full force. It seems this time, I can enjoy it thoroughly!" As Myriad Gu rushed forth, a gleam of essence flashed in Li Chen’s blood-red pupils.

The next moment, he was crazily battling against the massive figure of Myriad Gu.

Originally, he neither wanted nor wished to engage Myriad Gu head-on.

But with all concerns gone, Li Chen was filled with the desire to compete with this monster.

"Now, I could also be considered a monster, right? How about we see who is more of a monster?"

Li Chen’s Red Moon fiercely stabbed into Myriad Gu’s body, and the True Qi wildly stirred within Myriad Gu, causing it to twist in agony.

Its tail swept aside, snapping several large trees nearby; even Miao Zheng and others retreated dozens of meters in terror, observing the battle from afar.

In severe pain, Myriad Gu opened its huge mouth, biting fiercely at Li Chen.

Li Chen moved his feet but didn’t completely evade, and Myriad Gu bit onto one of Li Chen’s arms.

"If you were a feline, my arm might be gone, but too bad you are a snake." Li Chen glanced at his left arm, which was being bitten, frowning slightly, then sneering coldly.

Though it had no teeth, the terrifying bite force nearly shattered his arm, yet Li Chen appeared unconcerned.

The next moment, Li Chen’s Red Moon fiercely stabbed into Myriad Gu’s eye.

Under intense pain, Myriad Gu had to let go.

Li Chen’s left arm immediately emitted ’crackling’ sounds, indicating fast self-healing of his bones.

As he said, now he could undoubtedly be classified as a monster.

Such terrifying healing power, it’s completely beyond what a human can possess. Even True Qi can’t achieve such super-speed regeneration.

The Myriad Gu struck Li Chen’s side fiercely with its tail, and Li Chen’s body instantly turned into a cannonball, being blasted an unknown distance away, with blood splattering everywhere.

But before long, Li Chen had run back again, as if he hadn’t been injured at all, and once more he engaged fiercely with the Myriad Gu.

Gradually, the Myriad Gu felt its disadvantage, desperately trying to shake off Li Chen to evolve again, but Li Chen wasn’t giving it that chance at all, clinging to it desperately.

"Come on! Don’t run! I’m not done having fun yet!"

"Hahaha!!" Li Chen’s terrifying laughter echoed among the trees.

Red hair flying, the fiercer the battle, the wilder he became.

At this moment, compared to the Myriad Gu, he even looked more like a monster.

"Swoosh!"

The Myriad Gu’s snake tail swept again, but this time, instead of knocking Li Chen away, it wrapped around him tightly, and the Myriad Gu’s body coiled up instantly.

It wanted to strangle Li Chen alive!

Hearing the cracking sounds of bones from within his body, Li Chen’s expression changed.

If things continued like this, even with his super-speed regeneration, there was a possibility he might be strangled to death by this giant snake.

Once the heart and other internal organs were crushed, he wasn’t sure if he could regenerate.

"Risking my life?" Li Chen’s face twisted into a snarl.

"Who have I ever feared?"

With a twist of his wrist, Li Chen reversed his grip on the Red Moon and fiercely stabbed it into the Myriad Gu’s body.

"Absorb for me!!"

And at this moment, Li Chen also suddenly opened his mouth wide, disregarding the Myriad Gu’s disgusting body and the corrosiveness of its internal green blood, and bit down hard onto the Myriad Gu’s body.

Listening to the continuous cracking sounds inside his body, Li Chen wildly sucked in everything from the Myriad Gu’s body.

Energy, life essence, including that poisonous green blood.

As the green blood met with the boiling blood inside Li Chen’s body, a more bizarre and abundant energy erupted.

The green blood had actually undergone a peculiar neutralization with Li Chen’s blood.

From then on, the speed at which Li Chen and the Red Moon absorbed increased even more.

"Crack! Crunch!!"

Unpleasant sounds emanated from Li Chen’s chest and limbs, the sound of bones being forcibly snapped.

The Myriad Gu was also shrieking, from its sounds, it too was enduring an indescribably terrifying sensation.

That was the feeling of having its life force siphoned away!

Miao Zheng and the others watched this scene with extreme tension. Although they had absolute confidence in the Myriad Gu’s victory, after seeing Li Chen’s crazed state, they were no longer sure of the final outcome.

This stalemate lasted for a long time.

After a long time, Miao Zheng and the others finally noticed that both the Myriad Gu and Li Chen had become motionless.

There was no movement whatsoever between the two.

"What happened?"

"Who won?"

"Could it be... they’re both dead?" A tribe member of Miao Zheng spoke with some difficulty.

"Impossible!" Miao Zheng said decisively: "The Myriad Gu is a legendary existence, how could it die so easily? It can’t possibly lose!"

"But..."

"Stop with the ’but’, let’s go over and take a look." said Miao Zheng, as he cautiously moved towards the battlefield which he dared not approach before.

The few people behind him initially didn’t want to go, but seeing Miao Zheng take the lead, they gritted their teeth and followed along.

"It moved! The Myriad Gu moved!"

Once closer, someone excitedly pointed to the Myriad Gu’s snake body.

He had just clearly seen the Myriad Gu’s body twitch.

"It’s really moving!" The Myriad Gu’s body twitched again, and this time, even Miao Zheng saw it clearly, revealing a look of wild joy.

The next moment, a gigantic roar echoed.

"Boom!!"

The Myriad Gu’s body, in that instant, shattered into pieces, falling onto the center of the battlefield.

"He... he..." The people stared at the figure standing in the midst of the Myriad Gu’s scattered remains, unable to utter a word.

"Run!!" Miao Zheng immediately let out a fierce roar, then took the lead, running wildly toward the path behind.

Li Chen twisted his neck, the bones throughout his body erupted with a roar.

Turning to look at Miao Zheng and the others fleeing, a wicked grin spread across Li Chen’s face.

"Run?"
