Based on his desire to take revenge for Xue Chuan, he did not expect to be heavily injured by Han Chen. Xue Jing was like losing a man and a soldier. However, the current situation of the Colosseum was still a bit strange.
Shen Yu walked in front of Han Chen witrace of surprise on her pretty face, "I thought that you would have to wait until next year before you could enter the inner sect! If you're here, why don't you come find me? "
Han Chen laughed heartily and touched his nose, "I have not reached the standard that you set yet, so …"
"Standard?" Shen Yu was stunned at first, but then she seemed to have thought of something, as her charming face reddened slightly, "Um, I've long since forgotten that, so you don't need to take that to heart."
"Is that so?" For some reason, when he heard the other party's words, Han Chen actually felt a bit disappointed in his heart. That was an accident, and it couldn't be true.
The two began to chat like this, and the surrounding disciples couldn't stand up. Especially Huayun City, his handsome face was obviously a little gloomy. Not far away, Mei Ling saw through his brother's thoughts with a glance. He could not help but become more interested in Shen Yu.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At this moment, a muffled explosion sounded in the air. Soon after, bean-sized drops of rain began to pour down like soybeans. Only now did the disciples of the Colosseum realize that the weather had changed a long time ago. Since the commotion was over, they all dispersed.
"Do you like the rain?" Shen Yu asked with a smile.
"Hmm?" Han Chen was startled, before he could react, Shen Yu had already pulled his hand and ran down the stage.
"Move!" I'll take you in the rain. "
When Han Chen came into contact with the other party's fingertip, it was as if an electric current had passed through his body. As they ran, they waved at Xin Lan, Wu Jun and Dahwei, who were not far away from them. You guys go back first, I'll come back later to find you guys. "
The rain was getting heavier, and the cool air swept away the dust in the air!
Very quickly, Shen Yu and Han Chen disappeared from the Colosseum. Huayun City stood there without moving, with a gloomy face, his eyes filled with dense coldness. The woman he liked ran off with another man in front of him. Jealousy, anger, frustration, all sorts of negative emotions rushed into his mind.
"Damn it, damn it. Han Chen, I want to let you know, you are not worthy of her. "
Few people liked to run in the rain, and Shen Yu was one of them. The ground quickly formed a cheerful stream. Han Chen and Shen Yu were holding hands. They had no direction, and did not have any purpose in feeling the joy of rain.
Once the clothes on her body got wet, Shen Yu's beautiful and curvy body was sketched out. But Han Chen kept looking at her smiling face. Her curved eyes were like crescent moons, cute as a fairy.
After an unknown amount of time, there were no more roads in front of them. There was only a hill in front of them. Shen Yu stopped and turned, smiling: "Feels good? Doesn't it feel good? "
Her long hair stuck to her face and flowed with water, making her look even more charming than before. Han Chen watched in a daze and nodded his head.
"Do you know why I like the rain?" Shen Yu suddenly asked.
Han Chen shook his head honestly, "I don't know."
"Because I am a sinner. Inside my body, there is evil blood flowing." Shen Yu turned his head towards the lush and verdant mountains in front of him. His originally bright eyes were now filled with melancholy, a kind of strange and beautiful melancholy. The rain can wash away my evil, maybe it can. "
"Why do you say that about yourself? You are not evil at all. "
"Is that so?" Shen Yu scoffed, opened up her hands and started spinning on the spot, like a butterfly dancing in the rain, "I want to be an ordinary person, I'm an ordinary person. "Hehe, the rain is really good."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Thunder rumbled continuously from the clouds behind the dark clouds. The rain did not slow down at all. Although Han Chen still had injuries on his body, he didn't care about them anymore. All that was left in his sight was this adorable girl before him. An unfathomable emotion quietly sprouted within him.
When Han Chen returned that day, it was already evening. After being drenched in the rain for almost an entire day, he had a slight cold. However, he felt that it was the happiest day he had ever experienced in his entire life.
In the next few days, Xue Jing, Liu Wu, and the others didn't come looking for trouble. Han Chen's name had also spread far and wide. No one questioned him, the "number one disciple in the outer court" anymore. In the arena, a sword strike defeated Liu Wu. Xue Jing's arm had been cut off in an astonishing battle, causing those who had suspected him to shut their mouths.
Of course, Han Chen's stunning performance had also brought him potential trouble. Huayun City liking Shen Yu was no longer a secret. And the relationship that Han Chen and Shen Yu had, would definitely cause the Huayun City to take action.
And the Huayun City's strength, which was at the sixth level of Qi Refining, was not something that Xue Jing, Luo Zhong and the rest could compare to. He was the publically acknowledged genius of the inner court disciples.
Han Chen insisted on going to the Spirit Gathering Tower to cultivate everyday, and he had also explained to Wu Jun about "Sword Force" before. However, this sort of thing seemed to have something to do not only with talent, but also with luck. After a moment of comprehension, Wu Jun had no choice but to give up. On the other hand, there were faint signs of Xin Lan and Dazzling Spring breaking through to the Qi Refining stage.
Other than cultivating, Han Chen would frequently look for Shen Yu. The warming up of their relationship made many people gossip behind their backs. The reason was simple. Shen Yu's strength was at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, and Han Chen was only at the first level. The difference between the two was huge.
Spirit Gathering Tower, third floor!
Han Chen, who was in the midst of cultivation, slowly opened his eyes and let out a deep breath. He seemed to have reached a bottleneck. It wouldn't be long before he could break through to the second level of the Qi Refining stage.
In the dim tower, the lighting was poor. Only a few Night Pearls were illuminated on the wall. In this kind of environment, the majority of the people would not stay here for too long, so Han Chen had plans to leave.
Just as he stood up, two beautiful figures walked down the stairs, causing Han Chen's eyes to immediately light up. They were her good friend, Yu Fei and Shen Yu.
"Shen Yu." Han Chen quickly greeted.
"Han Chen, you're here too?" Shen Yu laughed lightly, and the two of them walked over. Han Chen knew Yu Fei, he had even been introduced to him before.
They nodded at each other and didn't wait to speak again. A somewhat ear-piercing voice echoed, "Hey, Junior Brother Han Chen is also here? "What a surprise."
Han Chen could not help but be startled, he looked up, and the person who spoke was Luo Zhong. Not only Huayun City, Lu Bai had also come. Even Mei Ling, who was at the first level of Qi Refining, came down.
On the surface of Mei Ling's body, there was a faint white light. It was likely because she had borrowed the strength of a certain treasure that she was able to reach the third floor.
Han Chen did not bother with the ridicule in Luo Zhong's words, and said to Shen Yu afterwards, "I was still thinking of looking for you in a while!"
"That's what you call having a common mind!" "Haha." Yu Fei who was at the side covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Humph, shut up!" "So annoying." Shen Yu glared at him snappily, and continued, "It's been a long time since I've been to the Spirit Gathering Tower, I can't be lazy anymore."
"Then I'll cultivate with you."
Just as Han Chen's words fell, the Huayun City walked over and replied in a bland voice, "I'm so sorry, but if Shen Yu were to follow me to the fourth floor, I'm afraid with your strength, you wouldn't e
ven make it there."
Chapter 29 - Layer IV
Hearing Huayun City's words, Han Chen finally understood that Shen Yu could go to the fourth floor with her strength.
Luo Zhong mocked from the side, "There are some people! You really don't know your place. Didn't you only win against a few small characters?
"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!" Shen Yu turned around and gave Luo Zhong a fierce glare, then said to Han Chen, "Ignore him, I'll stay on the third floor to accompany you."
The few of them were stunned, Han Chen only felt a warm feeling flowing through his body. However, Yu Fei who was at the side appeared a little unhappy, he pouted and said, "Shen Yu, we are already at the 4th level of Refinement, bringing along the 4th level of Qi Refining is equivalent to staying here for 6 hours."
Huayun City also frowned, "Shen Yu, stop messing around, come with me to the fourth floor."
"What is it?" Shen Yu raised her eyebrows, and replied in a dissatisfied and delicate voice, "So it seems that I'm very familiar with you, so what if I'm on the third floor?" Then, he turned to look at Yu Fei, "Humph, if you're not willing, then you can go down yourself!"
"Alright, alright, I'll accompany you." Yu Fei was so angry that his cheeks bulged, and he quietly muttered, "Pay more attention to beauties and friends".
Huayun City was so angry that even if he was angry, he could not release it.
Instead, it was Han Chen who spoke up at this time, "Shen Yu, you should go to the fourth floor! The help there is greater for you. "
"Why? "Don't you want to stay with me?"
"Of course not, I just don't want to drag you down. Besides, I've been cultivating here for quite a few hours already and I want to go out to change the air. "
"Mm, alright!" Shen Yu was not too stubborn. She immediately waved her small hand, "Then Yu Fei and I will go down first."
"Alright." Han Chen revealed a clean smile as he watched the two of them walk down the stairs to the fourth floor.
"At least you know your own limitations." Huayun City glanced at Han Chen indifferently, and then turned around and warned Mei Ling, before heading to the fourth floor.
Luo Zhong and Lu Bai were both at the 3rd level of the Refinement Realm, so they could only stay at the 3rd level. Mei Ling had come down here using a treasure, so he naturally had his own limitations. Aesult, the atmosphere here was somewhat strange.
From beginning to end, a few ridiculing expressions hung on Luo Zhong's face. As far as he was concerned, the only reason Han Chen could defeat Xue Jing was only because his methods were more ruthless! However, because of Shen Yu, he would not recklessly look for Han Chen for his misfortune. After muttering a few unsatisfied words to himself, he called over Lu Bai, and Mei Ling found a place to sit down.
Han Chen originally wanted to go out, but just took a few steps. He could not help but think back to what Huayun City had just said and gently heaved a sigh of relief. He stopped and sat back down, sinking into his cultivation.
The few people from Huayun City had undoubtedly stimulated his heart. Indeed, there was still a large gap between the current him and Shen Yu. He needed to work even harder.
Currently, there weren't many people on the third floor of the Spirit Gathering Tower. Mei Ling was looking at the other side from afar, and it was unknown what she was thinking in her heart. In the few months since she had first met Han Chen on the outer sect's life and death arena, she had been greatly moved.
Mei Ling understood that if she did not work hard, the gap between her and Han Chen would get bigger and bigger. In fact, she had even sensed that this youth might even becomhreat to his brother Huayun City in the future.
"Forget it, let's not think about that. It's impossible for him to catch up with big brother."
Han Chen focused on absorbing the surrounding Spirit Qi, and suddenly he had a thought. He secretly circulated his innate ability 'Devour'. In a split-second, a layer of faint black light appeared on the surface of his body as the hidden Devouring Power unfurled. The speed at which he absorbed Spiritual Energy was actually many times faster than in his usual state.
What made Han Chen even more surprised was that he could clearly feel that the pressure of the spirit power inside the tower had decreased by a lot, and the degree of pressure was about the same as when he was at the first floor.
"This is?" Han Chen couldn't help but be happy, as if he had lit a candle in the middle of the night. Since his own devouring ability was able to quickly absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, then the pressure exerted on him by the Spirit Gathering Tower was greatly reduced.
When he thought about it, Han Chen actually opened his eyes and turned his gaze towards the entrance to the fourth floor, maybe he could go down there right now.
Han Chen did not know that the The Supreme Divine Diagram's power could help him reach the fourth floor. However, that would be too obvious. If he managed to attract the attention of some of the elders from the Mystical Peak, he might even cause himself trouble.
"Yi, what, Junior Brother Han Chen also wants to go to the fourth floor? "Heh heh." Coincidentally, Luo Zhong, Lu Bai and Mei Ling had awoken from their cultivation at this time, and laughed sarcastically.
Lu Bai also agreed, "I'm afraid there are people worried that Junior Sister Shen Yu and Senior Brother Yun Cheng would be intimate, and that's why they are worried, right?"
"Hehe, let's talk about it. Junior Sister Shen Yu has a cultivation at the fourth level of Qi Refining at such a young age. Other than Senior Brother Yun Cheng, who else was worthy of her? "Some people think that it's ridiculous thaoad would want to eat a swan's meat. It's really laughable."
Luo Zhong and Lu Bai spoke each other out, while I pointed at Sang Huai. This attracted the attention of the other disciples who were currently training. Everyone was a little dissatisfied, but they didn't say anything more. Instead, they all looked at Han Chen with interest.
Han Chen raised his eyebrows, he immediately stood up and revealed a look of disdain: Luo Zhong, you are accusing others of being weak, what ability do you have?
"What did you say?" Luo Zhong couldn't help but be taken aback, he didn't expect Han Chen to retort against him.
"I said it very simply." Han Chen pointed to the stairs leading to the fourth floor, "If you have the ability, you can go down. If you don't have the ability, then please shut your stinky mouth. "
Shut your stinky mouth! With these words, Han Chen emphasized. Everyone present was startled. Luo Zhong's face instantly darkened, he suddenly stood up and fiercely replied, "What? If you think you have the qualifications to teach me a lesson, don't think that you have Junior Sister Shen Yu backing you up and think that you are incredible. "If you are capable, then go down to the fourth floor and show me."
"And if I go down?" Han Chen raised his eyebrows and replied with interest.
"If you go down and stay down for an hour, I, Luo Zhong, will have your surname. "But if you can't do that, then you must kneel down and kowtow three times to me."
"Hehe, then wouldn't I be at a disadvantage?"
"You, what do you want?" Luo Zhong's playful and flirting expression made him feel extremely unhappy from the bottom of his heart. With a glare, he shouted angrily, "If you can stay on the fourth floor for an hour, I'll call you grandpa."
"Haha, deal!" Han Chen had an evil grin on his face, which caused Luo Zhong, Lu Bai, and the others to spew fire in their eyes. But no one present believed that Han Chen truly had that capability.
"Good grandson, watch carefully."
Han Chen was annoyed, and walked towards the stairs of the fourth floor after he finished speaking. As soon as they reached the end of the passageway, they felt an intense pressure. After that, he immediately activated the devouring ability, and the surrounding spirit energy was consumed by Han Chen, reducing the pressure on him to the lowest.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Han Chen raised his foot and slowly walked down the stairs on
the fourth floor. After a while, he disappeared around the corner.
"In, in? He really, really went to the fourth floor. "
"Oh my god!" How is this possible? How could he possess such strength? It's unbelievable. "
"How did he do it?"
The entire third floor of the Spirit Gathering Tower instantly fell into chaos, especially Luo Zhong and Lu Bai, they were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground.
"He, really succeeded?"
Luo Zhong's head buzzed for a moment, his face looked as though someone had slapped him hard, and he actually lost? This was definitely impossible, he thought to himself, even if Han Chen were to continue, he would definitely not last more than an hour, but he would not be as confident as before.
Mei Ling's almond-shaped eyes opened wide, sher heart was in turmoil, and she was unable to calm down for a moment. Is Han Chen a monster? In the past when he was still in the outer sect, he had heard the most about how useless he was and how useless he was. But the ability he was displaying right now was definitely not inferior to a genius like the Huayun City.
Han Chen who had entered the fourth floor felt extremely carefree in his heart. To hit Luo Zhong was nothing, but the most important thing was that he could cultivate together with Shen Yu.
Speaking of which, Han Chen's feelings for Shen Yu couldn't even be considered as love right now. It was merely a good impression. More of it was friendship.
The spiritual energy on the fourth floor was almost three times denser than the third floor, and a distinct golden radiance floated in the air. Looking around, there were only a few tens or twenty people.
In contrast to the third floor, in the middle of this floor, there wahree-four meter tall and half-a-meter wide greatsword. The blade was smooth and bright, and if you looked carefully, you would seelatively small sword engraved on the blade.
"This should be the mystery of the fourth floor." Han Chen muttered, at the same time he had sensed that there were more elders who used swords in Mystical Peak.
