Chapter 825: Chapter 797: The Legendary Existence

"Li Changcun? Hmph!"

In the depths of a mountain range, a group of people unexpectedly emerged from a cave, their attire somewhat antique, yet exquisitely crafted.

"This monster has been missing for over twenty years. This is a rare opportunity. If our Yu family doesn’t come out and make a move, I’m afraid we’ll be forgotten!"

"But young master..."

"Hmm?!" At this address, the man’s gaze shifted, looking towards the old man beside him.

"O... old master!" The old man seemed to remember something and immediately changed how he addressed the man.

"Don’t forget, I’m the one who calls the shots in the Yu family now!" the man said with a somewhat displeased expression.

The man was in his forties, sporting a beard, and appeared quite respectable, except that he exuded an air of complacency.

Because, not long ago, the old master of his family had a mishap while practicing and succumbed to demonization.

As the eldest son of the Yu family, he naturally took over the control of the family.

Already suppressed for too long, he decided to take some people out for a walk. Though opposed by most of the Yu family, ultimately, under the absolute authority of the family head, they chose to comply.

"Back then, our Yu family merely provided some information. Even Li Changcun didn’t do much to our family. After so much time, do we still need to fear that person? Besides, hasn’t he been missing for over twenty years now?"

"But master, our Yu family had an agreement with Li Changcun that unless the Yu family Barrier is destroyed, we would no longer appear in the secular world..." The old man tried to persuade him further, but was immediately interrupted by the man.

"Enough, I don’t want to hear these nonsense." The man waved his hand and said: "Now, follow me outside, let’s have a good stroll!"

With that, he swiftly dashed towards the distance.

His speed was beyond any ordinary person’s imagination.

Seeing the man leaving far behind, the old man shook his head helplessly, waved to the large group of people behind him, and then quickly followed in the man’s direction.

Their speeds were astonishingly fast!

All these people were in fact Martial Artists!

...

"Ha!!"

Li Chen twisted his body and flipped a monster with deer antlers and a lion’s body onto the ground, then leaped up and landed a heavy punch on the creature’s head.

Suddenly, the monster twitched twice and ceased to move.

Lifting up the monster, nearly twice his size, Li Chen carried its corpse and ran towards the lakeside.

There, he had already set up a barbecue grill.

"Your physical condition has almost fully recovered now." An old man walked out of the house, came to Li Chen’s side, felt around his body, and then spoke.

"Third Grandpa, I’ve told you before, I’ve always been healthy, this little injury is nothing!" Li Chen patted his chest as he spoke.

But upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Third Grandpa’s expression turned grave: "Do you really think it’s just because you’re physically fit?"

"Do I have something special?" Li Chen couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Of course!" Third Grandpa looked at Li Chen, nodded, and said: "Your body flows with the ’Blood of Heaven’!"

"Blood of Heaven? What’s that?" Li Chen curiously asked as he placed the freshly cut meat onto the grill.

"Generally, the blood flowing in the descendants of a Heavenly-level Expert can be referred to as ’Blood of Heaven,’" Third Grandpa said slowly, stroking his beard.

Upon hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but shudder violently.

"Third Grandpa, what did you say? Heavenly-level Expert?" Li Chen’s eyes widened in shock.

"That’s right, and as the first-generation direct descendent, the Blood of Heaven in your body is especially rich," Third Grandpa nodded and said.

"Are you saying that my father, he was... a Heavenly-level Expert?" Li Chen said in disbelief.

"Didn’t Fourth Grandfather tell you?" Third Grandpa asked curiously upon hearing Li Chen’s words.

"No! Fourth Grandfather only told me about my origins and my father’s name. He didn’t mention anything about his strength," Li Chen hurriedly explained.

"I see," Third Grandpa nodded.

"You should focus on your training. Your injuries are almost healed, only the poison is still a bit troublesome; however, once you break through to the Mysterious Level Advanced Stage, that shouldn’t be a problem," Third Grandpa patted Li Chen’s shoulder and said.

"It seems nearly impossible not to make a breakthrough while training here," Li Chen looked around and shook his head. Initially, he estimated that it would take him at least another six months to make a breakthrough.

But judging from his current progress, it might only take half a month.

"Right, I’ve refined the pill for you." Third Grandpa said as if he remembered something, took out a bottle, and handed it to Li Chen saying, "Who would have thought, my boy, you’re so lucky to have found a rare thing like the Vermilion Fruit. I didn’t see this even on the second or third layer."

"This is..."

"Correct, this is the genuine Purifying Body Pill. After consuming it, even if your talent is poor, you can become a genius," Third Grandpa said with a smile.

"I’ll keep one for research, and you can take the rest."

As he spoke, Third Grandpa waved his hand at Li Chen and said, "Alright, I won’t stay any longer. I’m heading back now."

Hearing Third Grandpa’s words, Li Chen’s face immediately turned bitter.

"Third Grandpa, stay for a couple more days, it’s boring here by myself."

"No, I recently found some new herbs on the third layer, and I need to study their medicinal properties," Third Grandpa said eagerly.

Li Chen’s bitter smile deepened.

Upon his arrival, he learned about the existence of a third layer space beyond the second layer of this relic.

However, with his current strength, he simply couldn’t enter the third layer.

It wasn’t for any other reason; Li Chen’s current strength was too weak while the spiritual energy in the third layer was too rich. If Li Chen were to enter the third layer now, there would only be two outcomes.

One was being burnt by the uncontrollable surge of spiritual energy, and the other was having a breakthrough induced directly by the spiritual energy.

However, neither outcome was what the four elders hoped to see.

Although Li Chen is now a Mysterious-level expert, in the eyes of the four elders, he is still in the foundational stage.

This kind of forced promotion not only fails to bring any benefits to Li Chen but could also hinder his future training.

"Fine." Watching Third Grandpa leave, Li Chen began to tear into the roast meat, his eyes fiercely set on the nearby forest.

"Then, I better make a breakthrough quickly!"
