Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Lu Chen Falls into the Water and Disappears!

Using the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, Lu Chen witnessed firsthand the moment when the Spiritual Power in his Dantian was suddenly drained, the Spiritual Energy in the air swiftly surged towards him!

He had no time to react before the Spiritual Energy naturally entered his body and transformed into Water Spirit Power!

Although it wasn’t enough to fully replenish Lu Chen’s Dantian in one go,

it was recovering at an extremely fast pace!

"What’s going on?"

Lu Chen was first stunned, but then overwhelmed with joy!

Clearly, it was the change in his body after spending days transforming Fire Spirit Liquid for the Pure Jade Bottle!

It was as if his body could cultivate on its own!

"Great," Lu Chen was elated. For him at this moment, it was not so much sending charcoal in a snowy day, but rather the icing on the cake!

The more abundant the Spiritual Power in his body, the greater his chances of winning became!

"However, I don’t know how the body started to absorb the Spiritual Energy and refine it on its own, but at least, it has now pointed me in a direction for cultivation! It seems that from now on, I can confidently seek breakthroughs with the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique!"

He remembered the words spoken to him by the totemic stone statue and couldn’t help but anticipate the rewards he would reap if the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique broke through to another level!

Through the sea of fire, Lu Chen could not see Zheng Linyin’s situation.

Of course, Zheng Linyin was also unaware that Lu Chen’s Spiritual Power was slowly filling up.

Even so, she thought that Lu Chen, in his consecutive efforts to intensify the flames, must have been nearly exhausted by now!

However,

being cautious by nature, and even more cunning at her level of cultivation,

consider, for instance, how Shang Xiu and Liu Ruyan, both in the Qi Refinement Realm, were so calculating, let alone Zheng Linyin who came to carry out the task!

But she had no idea that her slight plan to deceive Lu Chen had given him the chance to turn the tables on her!

It could be said that Lu Chen’s tactics had taken her completely by surprise!

And who would have expected a Xuan Bead that could merge into water?

Such a treasure, even if taken outside of Tianyuan, would surely cause a frenzy in the Cultivation World!

The blaze was enormous. Under Lu Chen’s frenzied Imperial Command, he could not see Zheng Linyin.

Similarly, Zheng Linyin could not see Lu Chen!

Both harbored their own schemes, yet Lu Chen had the upper hand!

By the time the Fire Spirit Liquid in the Pure Jade Bottle was completely used up, Lu Chen was already not far from the beach.

Feigning a flash of panic, Zheng Linyin retreated into the sea. Lu Chen sneered inwardly, threw the Pure Jade Bottle back into his storage bag, and with a thought, took out the Xuan Bead!

But to be on the safe side, he did not directly hold the Xuan Bead; instead, he tucked it into his chest!

"I’m going to kill you—"

Having retreated into the water, Zheng Linyin was only submerged up to her thighs. The surging waves battered her, making her sway as if she might tumble into the water at any moment!

Lu Chen, appearing utterly frenzied, gripped the Jiao Snake Horn and charged over!

Zheng Linyin was delighted in her heart.

She did not know if the end of the fire was Lu Chen’s doing or if the Spiritual Liquid had been exhausted.

But at the moment, Lu Chen advancing was all meaningless for her!

She simply waited for him to deliver himself to her doorstep!

Unexpectedly, just as Lu Chen stepped into the water, about thirty steps away from her, he stumbled, and then his whole body plunged into the water!

"With that ability, you still want to kill me?"

Zheng Linyin chuckled to herself. One hand crossed over her chest while the other was already forming a spell!

That was enough. She decided to wait for Lu Chen to get up and then use a spell to kill him!

After all, staying in the water for a long time might make her body too damp!

But after waiting for more than half a stick of incense, she did not see Lu Chen get up, leading her to wonder, "Didn’t this boy just drown?"

Zheng Linyin stared at the spot where Lu Chen had fallen for a long time, and even searched the surrounding area, finding no trace of him. A strange thought inevitably popped into her head.

A cultivator drowning was no less a joke than a mortal dying from bumping into tofu.

"If he’s not dead, could it be that the water has pushed him somewhere else? That won’t do, I still want the bottle in his hands!"

Zheng Linyin frowned slightly and headed towards that location.

But little did she know, Lu Chen had long since submerged himself behind her with the Xuan Bead, lying close to the bottom of the water.

Waiting for Zheng Linyin to be unprepared, he would directly stab her in the lower back with the Jiao Snake Horn!

And now, the opportunity had arrived!
