Chapter 821: Chapter 793: The Power of the Bagua Mirror

Agonizing pain, the kind of terrifying agony that words fail to express.

This intense pain, even for someone with the unwavering willpower of Li Chen, evoked a feeling of preferring to pass out.

For Li Chen, at this moment, he indeed wished nothing more than to lose consciousness.

Although he had grown accustomed to pain and his endurance far exceeded that of ordinary people, the sensation of his shoulder bone being savagely crushed had long surpassed the threshold of human tolerance.

Li Chen did not pass out, and it was solely by sheer willpower that he was desperately holding on.

"I... cannot die yet!"

Faintly, Li Chen felt that some mobility had returned to his body.

Inside his body, an intense energy had also emerged.

The source of this energy... was the blood of the Blood Lion!

Li Chen, whose body had been paralyzed, finally regained a trace of movement.

But because of that, the pain intensified even more.

Li Chen’s left arm had completely lost all strength, but by his right hand lay the Red Moon.

Yet now, he didn’t even have the strength to lift the Red Moon, let alone slay the Blood Lion.

Maintaining his position of hanging from the Blood Lion’s body, Li Chen continued to suckle the blood, but his slightly strengthened right hand had reached into his bosom.

What appeared in his hand was a tiny... Bagua Mirror!

"This time, I must rely on you again."

A bitter smile appeared on Li Chen’s face.

He was very clear that he no longer possessed any strength in his body; once he let go, it would mean his death. And now, the only thing he could count on was this Bagua Mirror.

A stream of True Qi slowly flowed into it, and the Bagua Mirror began to flicker gradually.

Beams of light started to shine from the surface of the Bagua Mirror.

The Blood Lion seemed to sense something and attempted to stop Li Chen but realized that with Li Chen’s biting posture, it was truly difficult to attack him.

"Drip, drip, drip."

When the flickering light of the Bagua Mirror stopped, Li Chen found that, unlike last time, he had not been teleported to another place, and the Blood Lion had not disappeared either.

He was still in the same location, but the Blood Lion was now more than ten steps away from him.

"It’s over."

When Li Chen looked to the other side, his eyes filled with even more despair.

Because, on his other side, what appeared was none other than the... Seven-Colored Being he had encountered before!

"It looks like I really have bad luck."

Li Chen looked at his palm, where a segment of his pinky had turned pitch black.

That was the Insect Poison he had forced out using the last of his strength.

With the effects of the Insect Poison gone, if he were given more time, he was confident in regaining some combat power.

However, with both the Blood Lion and the Seven-Colored Being appearing simultaneously, Li Chen was left with few options.

"ROAR!!!!!"

When the Blood Lion realized that Li Chen had finally released his bite and, inexplicably, appeared a distance away, a trace of cruelty and excitement gleamed in its eyes.

At last, it could finally kill this detestable human.

Without a second thought, the Blood Lion lunged at Li Chen immediately.

Watching the Blood Lion pouncing towards him, Li Chen shook his head helplessly. This time, he truly had no solution.

"Boom!!"

When Li Chen opened his eyes once again, he astonishingly discovered that he hadn’t died.

The Blood Lion that had been pouncing towards him had unexpectedly been sent flying backward.

"Hmm?"

Li Chen looked on with a puzzled face at the Seven-Colored Being standing before him, who had appeared at some unknown time.

"Did he save me?" Doubt filled Li Chen’s heart.

However, the next moment, his speculation was confirmed.

Because the Seven-Colored Being charged straight towards the Blood Lion, attacking it.

"Roar!!"

Struck by the Seven-Colored Being and thrown into a rage, the Blood Lion instantly engaged in a fierce battle with the Seven-Colored Being.

Originally, the Seven-Colored Being’s strength should have been inferior to that of the Blood Lion.

After all, the Blood Lion was a Mysterious Level Advanced Stage being, while the Seven-Colored Being, according to Li Chen’s estimate, was at most between the Mysterious Level Beginner Stage and the Middle Rank.

But, after the previous fierce battle, the Blood Lion was already somewhat injured, and what was more severe was the crazy bite from Li Chen just now.

Perhaps Li Chen hadn’t realized, only feeling that his body seemed to have calmed down a lot.

But that single bite had sucked away a full one-third of the Blood Lion’s blood.

This would be extremely fatal for any creature.

The Blood Lion was a Primordial Beast, and a powerful Mysterious Level Advanced Stage one at that, barely managing not to fall. However, its remaining strength was also much diminished.

"Bang!"

"Thud!"

The Blood Lion’s fierce claw struck the chest of the Seven-Colored Being, who in turn landed a punch on the Blood Lion’s head.

The Seven-Colored Being, still as Li Chen had first seen it, faceless and silent, showing no expression or emotion at all. After exchanging blows with the Blood Lion, it quickly stood up and continued the death struggle with the Blood Lion.

Watching the Seven-Colored Being engaged in a deadly battle with the Blood Lion, Li Chen, holding the Bagua Mirror, couldn’t help but feel a wave of confusion rise in his heart.

He remembered that the Bagua Mirror was given to him by Great Grandfather through Wang Qianqian, saying that at some time, this object would save his life.

Could it be that what he meant was not the initial battle with the Seven-Colored Being, but this moment?

Li Chen clearly remembered that initially, commanding the Nether Army, they had the power to fight the Seven-Colored Being head-on, it was just that he didn’t want to increase casualties, which was why he used the Bagua Mirror.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the Bagua Mirror indeed saved his life.

The Seven-Colored Being had also changed from his mortal enemy into the person who saved him.

"Perhaps this was Great Grandfather’s intention all along?" Li Chen thought secretly in his heart.

After recovering for a while, Li Chen managed to suppress the rampaging Mysterious Energy within him, and he stood up once more.

However, the injuries on his body were not something that could be recovered in a short time.

Fortunately, Li Chen had previously swallowed a White Lotus Seed in advance, and at this time, its medicinal power began to take effect. Combined with having devoured a large quantity of the Blood of the Blood Lion, Li Chen felt that the power within his body had almost unknowingly been restored.

But due to his injuries, his current combat power was probably less than seventy percent of his peak.

"But this should be enough," Li Chen thought as he tore strips of cloth from his clothing and firmly bound his shoulder, picking up the Red Moon from the ground.

When his gaze shifted back to the battlefield between the Blood Lion and the Seven-Colored Being, it was filled with a renewed fighting spirit.

"I’ve said it before, I won’t die! At least, not here."

"Now, I’ve done it!"
