Chapter 1086
The flaming spear stood silently on the ground as Lv Peng quickly rushed forward, hoping to take the first reward.
"Be careful."
A warning came from behind. At the same time, Lv Peng felt a dangerous aura coming from the side, heading straight for his heart.
Beside Lv Peng, the void silently tore open as a fiery-red shadow stabbed at Lv Peng's chest. Sensing the danger, Lv Peng's expression changed drastically. His body suddenly twisted in midair and dodged to the side.
"Pfft."
With a soft sound, blood splattered as a bloody hole appeared in Lv Peng's body. However, he dodged at the critical moment, dodging the fatal strike.
Blood gushed out, immediately dyeing the ground red. Lv Peng covered his wound and retreated a few meters. In front of him, the flaming spear dissipated like an illusion. The void began to distort as a burly man more than two meters tall appeared. He was wearing blue armor and holding a flaming spear in his hand. Blood dripped from the tip of the spear.
Upon seeing Lv Peng being attacked, Zi Chen flapped his Lightning Wings and rushed towards Lv Peng at extreme speed. However, no matter how fast his footwork was, it was impossible for him to outrun a weapon attack at close range. By the time he arrived beside Lv Peng, Lv Peng was already injured.
There was a bloody hole in his body. Thankfully, Lv Peng had appeared in time. The power in the spear didn't erupt, causing him to be seriously injured. The bloody hole wasn't big, nor did it completely penetrate his body. It looked like a superficial wound that wasn't fatal.
With Lv Peng's physique, such an injury could stop bleeding in three to five seconds. Furthermore, it wouldn't take long for him to recover. This was because Lv Peng also cultivated a Perfect Body. However, it wasn't as perfect as Zi Chen's.
However, the inconspicuous bloody hole didn't immediately stop bleeding. Blood kept flowing out of the wound and even seemed to be spewing out. Lv Peng's face turned pale from the excessive blood loss as his expression turned dispirited.
"What's going on? Your wound can't stop," Zi Chen asked when he saw Lv Peng's expression.
Lv Peng held his wound as blood gushed out and dripped down his clothes to the ground. His expression turned increasingly ugly as he shook his head and said, "It seems like a mysterious force is preventing the wound from healing. Furthermore, there's a large amount of vitality in the blood that flows out."
In just a few short breaths, Lv Peng's expression became even more unsightly.
Zi Chen's life force was still leaking out of his blood, and his injuries were not healing. Killing intent immediately appeared in Zi Chen's eyes, and he turned around to stare at the brawny man. The brawny man was five meters away, and the space around him was twisting as if he was standing in another space. He looked at Zi Chen, then at Lv Peng, and said, "You actually dodged my attack. How interesting!"
Zi Chen forcibly interrupted the other party's lamentation. He coldly stared at the burly man and angrily said, "You're the one behind this, aren't you?"
The burly man sneered, "Playing tricks, what tricks?"
Zi Chen suppressed his urge to kill and said coldly, "I'll give you one chance to heal his injuries, or die."
Zi Chen had already used his spiritual senses to scan Lv Peng's injury, but he did not find any other force in the wound. He could not find the reason for the bleeding, so he could not do anything about Lv Peng's injury.
"Hahahaha."
The burly man suddenly burst into laughter and said, "If I can't heal his injuries, I'm afraid he won't survive."
Zi Chen fiercely glared at the burly man. In order to prevent the burly man from launching a sneak attack, he did not turn around and said, "Hurry up and feed Lv Peng a pellet."
This pellet was not the kind that Zi Chen swallowed while flying. Instead, it was an enhanced version specially refined by Cauldron Spirit. It could be said that this pellet was refined by Cauldron Spirit in the Mortal realm. It was of the highest quality among pellets.
"Let alone a mere pellet, even a divine pellet would be useless. He will only bleed to death. This world needs delicious blood to irrigate it," the burly man laughed heartily.
As soon as the pellet entered Lv Peng's stomach, rich life energy spread throughout his body. However, it was ineffective. Lv Peng's injury did not improve in the slightest. The pellet could only provide him with a small amount of life energy. It must be known that in the past, even if one was seriously injured or on the verge of death, a pellet would be able to replenish all his life energy within a few breaths of time.
Lv Peng's face turned even paler. The life energy that he had just replenished was quickly draining away.
"My patience is limited. Heal him, or I'll make sure you die painfully," Zi Chen glared at the burly man.
"It's useless. He will die."
The burly man's gaze swept past Zi Chen and the others. He even swept a glance at the spirits who had stopped in the distance. With a hideous grin, he said, "All of you will die too."
The demonic ape could not stand the arrogance of the burly man. He coldly said, "Since he won't be healed, we'll beat him until he is healed."
Upon finishing those words, the demonic ape charged forward with his black stick. Zi Chen said worriedly, "Be careful. That spear is strange. Don't get hurt."
Demonic aura surged around the demonic ape. Demonic armor materialized on his body. Then, he charged at the burly man with his black stick.
Zi Chen turned around to check on Lv Peng's injury. There was a small wound that was bleeding profusely. What was this? Lv Peng was a Grandmaster of Formations. All of his strength lay in his attainments in the field of formations. If he were to die like this, it would be utterly humiliating.
More importantly, Zi Chen had never imagined that one of his brothers would die in front of him. Moreover, it was under such circumstances that none of them cared.
"Let me try." Su Mengyao, who had been standing at the periphery, suddenly stepped forward.
"It's useless. No one can save him." In the distance, the burly man who was fighting the demonic ape spoke again.
Su Mengyao leaned over and stared at Lv Peng's bleeding wound. She frowned slightly. At the same time, her eyes flashed with a strange light. A moment later, she pointed a few fingers at Lv Peng's wound.
With every finger, a mysterious power would come out of her fingers and fall on Lv Peng's wound. This was the power that Su Mengyao had cultivated. In terms of strength, it was naturally inferior to the Perfect Power. However, in terms of mystery, it was superior to the Perfect Power.
The mysterious power fell on Lv Peng's wound and fused into it bit by bit. Immediately after, Lv Peng's bleeding wound showed signs of healing. Moreover, the blood flow slowed down significantly.
Everyone stared fixedly at Lv Peng's wound. When they saw this scene, their faces immediately lit up with joy. However, before they could fully express their joy, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, their faces once again became gloomy and anxious.
Because the wound had just shown signs of healing, it returned to its original state. The blood flow accelerated again.
"Is it because the energy is too little?"
Zi Chen asked nervously. He hoped that it was because the mysterious energy was too little. If that was the case, as long as he added a little more energy, Lv Peng's wound would heal and save his life.
After a simple test, Su Mengyao's brows relaxed. Her slightly nervous expression also relaxed. She chuckled and said, "It's not that the energy is too little. It's just that the quality is a little low. However, it doesn't matter. I have a way to heal him and save his life."
Hearing this, joy appeared on everyone's faces again. However, Lv Peng's life was at stake, so no one said anything. They were all extremely nervous as they watched Su Mengyao's next move.
Su Mengyao's slender finger pointed again. A light lit up between her fingers and energy appeared. However, this time, the energy did not immediately shoot out. Instead, it condensed between her fingers as if it was being compressed and upgraded.
Everyone was silent. They even held their breaths as they quietly watched this scene. After about ten breaths, a drop of crystal clear liquid energy condensed between Su Mengyao's fingers. This drop of energy left her finger and dripped onto Lv Peng's wound.
After one drop, Su Mengyao condensed it again. As she pointed again and again, drops of liquid energy dripped onto Lv Peng's wound.
In total, seven or eight drops of liquid energy dripped onto Lv Peng's wound. At this moment, Su Mengyao's complexion turned pale. It seemed that she had consumed a lot of energy. However, under this consumption, there was an extremely obvious effect. Lv Peng's wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This kind of recovery speed was similar to when one swallowed a treasure pill in the outside world. In just a few breaths, the wound had completely stopped bleeding, formed a scar, and recovered.
Such a miraculous scene stunned everyone. Everyone clicked their tongues in wonder. Zi Chen was even more baffled as he asked, "Your Yuan Power is actually effective? It's even inferior to a treasure pill."
Su Mengyao's complexion was pale, but she still smiled. She shook her head and said, "My Yuan Power isn't that miraculous. The reason why it can heal Lv Peng's wound is because this Yuan Power just happens to restrain the mysterious power in his wound. Oh, perhaps you guys can't sense it. His wound can't be healed by a treasure pill because there is a mysterious power that can't be seen or sensed causing mischief."
Lv Peng's wound stopped bleeding and then healed. However, the vitality that had just passed away hadn't been restored. However, the treasure pill that he had swallowed and its effects had been suppressed. After the wound healed, it began to show its effects. A large amount of vitality fused into his limbs and bones, nourishing his vitality. His dispirited spirit was instantly restored to its peak.
Seeing Lv Peng recover, everyone let out a sigh of relief. After surviving a calamity, Lv Peng was in an extremely good mood. He repeatedly expressed his thanks. At this moment, everyone noticed the distant sounds of explosions coming from the battle between the devil ape and the demon ape.
Everyone turned their heads and saw that the devil ape and the burly man were in the midst of an intense battle. However, no matter how they looked at it, their attacks seemed to be separated by space. The devil ape's full strength was reduced to less than 05% by the time it passed through space. It was simply unable to injure the burly man.
And looking at the burly man's expression, he was like a cat playing with a mouse. He was constantly counterattacking, and he was also worried about being injured. The devil ape was also worried about attacking. Adding on the fact that the devil ape's strength was constantly being reduced, it was actually at a disadvantage.
"Demon Ape, I'll do it," shouted Zi Chen as he flew forward.
"Lv Peng has recovered." The devil ape turned its head and said.
Zi Chen replaced the devil ape and coldly stared at the burly man. At this moment, the burly man was just like the devil ape. He turned his head to look at Lv Peng. Seeing that Lv Peng was in high spirits and didn't show any signs of being injured, his face immediately lit up with joy. But when he looked at the burly man, his face was filled with shock. It was as if he had seen a ghost.
"How is this possible? After being injured, one's vitality will completely drain away until they die. How can he recover?"
The burly man paled. He hadn't paid attention to Lv Peng before, so he didn't know how his injuries had healed.
"I said that I wouldn't let you die a happy death. Now, I'll fulfill my promise."
While the burly man was still in shock, Zi Chen rushed over. The Broken Finger Gloves appeared and Zi Chen used his perfect strength to attack the burly man.
