Looking at the person running away quickly, a sneer flashed across Long Chen's face.
Long Chen knew that if he allowed this person to escape, his whereabouts would be discovered immediately. With the strength of the Long family and Xie family, it would not be difficult to find him.
As soon as he thought of this, the murderous intent flashed in Long Chen's eyes, and his lightning step burst out with powerful power. In an instant, he caught up with the man.
With his strength comparable to that of a three-star Qi Gathering Realm, when he performs the Lightning Step, his speed is naturally far beyond what a guy at the peak Qi Refining Realm can match.
"Go to hell!"
The moment he approached the man, Long Chen shouted softly and punched out his right fist like lightning.
The man was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder burst. At the critical moment, his body stopped, and the spiritual energy in his hands boiled, and he slapped forward. Looking at the posture, he used his own hands to block Long Chen's fist.
However, Long Chen's punch was so powerful and heavy, how could he, a mere Qi Refining Realm being, be able to block it?
Just hearing a bang, Long Chen's fist fell heavily on his arms.
Click...
The man's arm was shattered in an instant, and blood flowed across it. Along with his body flying upside down, he finally fell heavily to the ground. Blood spurted from his mouth, his eyes bulged, and he was completely dead.
After easily killing three people, Long Chen let out a long breath.
If any of these three people escape, he will face countless threats and pursuits, so he will not have any psychological burden to kill these three people.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Long Chen threw their belongings into the storage ring. Looking at the real three thousand gold coins, Long Chen curled his lips and said, "Three poor ghosts!"
After muttering quietly, Long Chen turned around and left.
"Long Chen, are you just leaving like this?"
Dragon Soul said eagerly, "Although these three people are dead, their souls are of great benefit to you!"
"soul?"
"You mean..."
Long Chen was startled for a moment, then a hint of resistance appeared on his face, "You want me to swallow their souls?"
"Yes, the soul of a warrior still has a lot of spirituality. For you, it is a good tonic to strengthen your soul!"
Dragon Soul earnestly persuaded, "Moreover, even if you don't refine their souls, their souls will still dissipate between heaven and earth in the end."
"This..." Long Chen hesitated, refining other people's souls, which made him feel a little conflicted deep in his heart.
"Why are you still hesitating? In this world, the strong are respected and the weak eat the strong. If you hadn't had some skills just now, you would have been the one who died. Put away your pity!"
…
For a long time, under the persuasion of Dragon Soul, Long Chen's expression became determined. He came to a corpse, used the powerful suction force of the Ancient Dragon God Art to attach to the palm of his hand, and gently touched the person's head.
One catch.
Suddenly, an illusory figure was pulled out by him.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me..."
After the man's soul was pulled out, his eyes were filled with panic and fear.
"What are you waiting for?"
Dragon Soul scolded, causing Long Chen to grit his teeth and suck the soul into his mouth.
boom!
The moment the person's soul entered the body, the Ancient Dragon God Art started to use itself. In a short time, the person's soul was refined into pure soul power.
Buzz!
After absorbing that pure soul power, Long Chen's whole body was slightly shaken, and the next moment, a mysterious aura spread out from his body.
This kind of breath is invisible and has no quality. It looks very strange and makes people feel like surrendering.
"Dragon energy, hahaha, this guy finally condensed the first trace of dragon energy..."
The dragon soul in the sea of consciousness suddenly became ecstatic after feeling this strange aura.
"It took only a few months of practicing the Ancient Dragon God Art to refine dragon energy. This talent is much more powerful than those dragons with pure blood in the clan."
…
Long Chen didn't know about the dragon energy in him, and the dragon soul didn't tell him. Just like this, after he refined the souls of the three people, he felt that his spirit had become much better, and even his perception had become much sharper.
.
It feels like entering a hot spring, extremely comfortable.
"This feeling is really... so comfortable!"
Long Chen stood up and stretched. He felt full of energy and not at all tired.
After briefly tidying up, Long Chen cautiously walked towards the Monster Mountain Range again.
…
This is a land of rocks. On top of a huge rock, Xie Yu, who is wearing a red outfit, has an evil look in his eyes as he looks at a trembling middle-aged man kneeling below.
"You mean, one of the thirty teams we sent out is missing?"
With the man's face full of panic, Xie Yi Xie Yu finally looked away and spoke leisurely.
"Exactly so!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded heavily, wiped a cold sweat, and said, "Just now, all our teams agreed to release a signal once an hour, but it turned out that one was missing!"
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to even look at it.
"waste!"
Xie Yu's face was gloomy, "There are three people in a team, each of them is at the peak level of Qi refining, but they don't even have a chance to release a signal?"
Seeing that Xie Yu was angry, the Xie family guards who were standing around knelt down one after another, lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Xie Yu has changed tremendously in the past few days. Not only has his temper changed drastically, but his methods are also shocking. In just a few days, he seems to have changed into a different person.
Not only is he ruthless, but his character has also become extremely vicious.
Once, because a woman did not serve him well, he was beheaded on the spot, and her death was extremely miserable, as if she had been drained of her essence and blood by something.
In just a few days, Xie Yu used terrifying methods to bring everyone in the Xie family into submission.
Although the current Xie family nominally belongs to Xie Yuan, Xie Yu's father, the Xie family knows that Xie Yuan is just a puppet.
The real person in charge of the Xie family is Xie Yu in front of him.
"Give me the order to report every hour and change it to half an hour!"
After a long time, Xie Yu's gloomy voice came out.
"As you command!"
The people kneeling around him flew away one after another as if they were being pardoned.
After watching those people leave, Xie Yu showed an evil sneer on his face, "If these losers weren't of some use to me, why would I have kept you here till now?"
"I, the Soul Eater Clan, practice by devouring souls. The higher the talent and the stronger the soul, the stronger the origin it contains. I am bound to win this Long Chen, Jie Jie..."
…
Three hours later, Long Chen finally arrived at the edge of the forest. He only needed to walk a hundred meters forward to completely walk out of the forest.
When we arrived here, we could already hear the roars of monsters echoing in front of us.
"As long as you pass through this mountain forest, you will have entered the outer reaches of the Monster Mountain Range!"
