The more he cultivated the "Heaven's Stolen Fortune", the harder it became to cultivate. In these three years, Li Chen had already broken through to the seventh layer. Just now, his mind was in turmoil and he was so excited that he wanted to roar!

The extremely hard to break through to the eighth level! He had broken through! There was a violent rotation in the Ruins of Kun, and the [Heaven's Stolen Fortune] was engraved on the stone tablet, word for word!

"Go to hell!" Duan Ao Chuan grunted coldly as he abruptly increased his strength.

The Black Phoenix's body shook for a moment and was about to collapse. Suddenly, it felt a gentle power erupting from within its body.

This energy was abnormally gentle, yet it caused the black phoenix to involuntarily withdraw its mental energy. It was still in the midst of being shocked when that gentle energy began to expand, and it even faintly broke Duan Aozhe's Spiritual Awareness.

At this moment, Duan Aozhe was also extremely shocked. He abruptly compressed his strength, but it was all dissolved by the gentle energy. In fact, that energy was extremely strange. When he came into contact with it, his own strength was actually slowly being worn away.

"This is!" "Heaven's Stolen Fortune!"

No one understood the Heaven's Stolen Fortune better than Duan Aoyuan. However, he had never thought that one day, he would be defeated by a little kid who had only studied for three years.

Duan Aoyuan was extremely familiar with that power. He had been suppressing it from beginning to end, but he didn't expect that the two of them had actually started to fuse together!

Duan Ao was shocked. This kid actually planned on fusing with me!

If he were to be fused, then what kind of incident would happen? Even using one's toes, it was clear what would happen. Who would have thought that this brat would actually have such guts! He let out a cold snort and quickly chanted the chant for the Heaven's Stolen Fortune. He didn't believe that he had cultivated this technique for almost a hundred years! He actually lost to a little bastard who had cultivated for three years!

Li Chen sneered. Threads of black mist continued to send white spirit energy into the two of them.

Duan Aoyuan was horrified to find that a part of his body had started to turn white as well. He was then engulfed by Li Chen's black mist and sent into Li Chen's sea of consciousness!

"You!" Duan Aozhe was shocked and angry at the same time, "What realm have you reached!"

He didn't believe that he would lose this match. But the truth was right in front of him. The other side actually had the strength to refine him! This truly terrified him.

"The eighth stage of the Manifestation Art!"

Li Chen coldly replied, but his speed was not slow at all.

In the blink of an eye, a tenth of Duan Aoyuan's original several hundred feet of Spiritual Awareness had vanished. Duan Aoyuan knew that the remaining 90% would probably disappear very quickly as well!

The opponent had already broken through to the eighth level! He had wasted his entire life and now, he only had the strength of the sixth layer! This huge difference in strength truly shocked him.

Thinking like this, his spiritual consciousness that was over a hundred feet long was once again swallowed. This caused Duan Ao Diao to become anxious.

"Little brother!" If you have something to say, then say it! "

Li Chen was too lazy to waste words with him. The rate of melting increased yet again.

"You!" Duan Ao circulated his Qi to the limit, then he thought of something. "Don't you want to know the secret of this Manifestation Art?!"

Li Chen sneered, "Even if I refined you, I would still know."

What Li Chen said was indeed the truth. After refining his opponent, he naturally knew everything about his opponent. There was no need for him to do anything unnecessary.

"You can't do this to me!" At this moment, Duan Ao Diao's expression became ferocious, "Since that's the case, even if I die, I won't let you do as you wish!"

Li Chen seemed to understand what the other party was trying to do. His face was filled with disdain as he continuously circulated his melting speed.

Duan Ao told his heart that Li Chen wouldn't let him off. Suddenly, he released his aura and actually wanted to self-detonate in Li Chen's Spirit Sea!

However, Li Chen's Spiritual Sense suddenly pounced over. It was like a spark that was about to explode, but was instantly extinguished by a wave.

Duan Aoyuan silently disappeared from within Li Chen's body.

Li Chen's sea of consciousness gradually returned to its original golden color.

He looked at the Black Phoenix. It had been protecting and escorting Li Chen for the past three years. At this moment, it could no longer hold on and had long fallen asleep.

Li Chen let out a soft sigh. It had been three years, and Duan Ao Zong had already thoroughly touched Li Chen's body, he knew that Li Chen was only a second level Pulse Piercing Mysterious Scholar. Initially, he had not placed Li Chen in his eyes, but he never would have thought that it was this ant that he did not place in his eyes that had completely destroyed his consciousness, not even giving him the time to self-destruct!

Li Chen slowly stood up from the pool. After three years, his surroundings hadn't changed at all. From Duan Ao's memories, Li Chen already knew where he was.

That year, the Sword Inquisition Sect was provoked by someone. In fact, that person was just an itinerant cultivator, and upon hearing that the Sword Inquisition Way's Life Transforming Spell was very powerful, he came to ask for advice, but he didn't expect that the Life Transforming Spell would be so powerful, forcing him into a corner. At that time, he used a secret technique and forcefully sealed Duan Ao Zun in this small world.

Unfortunately, even so, his soul was still severely injured, so he could only slowly repair it.

Probably due to his heavy injuries, Duan Ao Zong had been using the Body Metamorphose Scripture to repair his spiritual power. After a few years in this secret realm, he was no longer able to trap Duan Ao Zong.

Otherwise, if they were to meet those tyrannical people, they would be annihilated sooner or later.

On top of that, using the Manifestation Art to continuously repair his wounds was much easier than concentrating on his cultivation. Duan Aoyuan couldn't help but have a bad idea.

That year, after his incident, the Sword Inquisition Sect fell into a state of turmoil, and elected a new Sect Leader. Because only the Sect Leader was allowed to cultivate the Life Transforming Technique, the Sect Leader was shocked and enraged by Duan Ao Chuan's continuous absorption of Spiritual Energy, causing the Sect Leader's strength to not increase in the slightest. In the end, the Life Transforming Technique became a waste and more and more people cultivated it, causing Duan Ao Chuan to become even more unbridled.

It was a pity that most of these people were Pulse Piercing Profound Practitioners, with their strength at that level, even if Duan Aozhe were to absorb them, he would not be able to increase his strength by much.

Li Chen should be glad that Duan Ao Zhe only had his Spiritual Awareness left. If his physical body was here, then not to mention those who had cultivated the Life Transforming Technique, even the remaining people from the Sword Inquisition Sect would be sucked dry by Duan Ao Zong and die in the sect.

Thinking of the Heaven Stealing Art, Li Chen was slightly excited. The black phoenix was right, this was indeed an opportunity for him. If it were not for the black phoenix, he would not even know how to cultivate the Heaven Stealing Art.

Li Chen looked around. After so many years, the seal on the pool had long been broken. Li Chen easily found the exit.

Walking along the exit, Li Chen was surprised to find that the exit was inside the Misty Peak's main hall.

The Misty Peak's main hall had been abandoned for several years. In the air, Li Chen's body slowly appeared.

Looking at the empty main hall, Li Chen felt a sense of melancholy.

He had erased Duan Aoyuan's Spiritual Awareness. Duan Aoyuan was once the Sect Leader of the Sword Enlightenment Sect, so it was unknown how many glorious feats he had created in the great hall.

But unfortunately …

Now that he had completed the [Body Transformation Technique], the first thing he wanted to do was to get revenge on that old bastard, Gui Gu Zi. However, he knew that with his current body, if he fought against Gui Gu Zi, he would be at a disadvantage.

Li Chen walked around the valley for a long time and was surprised to find that there was not a single living person in the Misty Peak.

In the past, there were very few people walking around the Misty Peak, but in broad daylight, there were always a few delirious old men walking around.

Li Chen had doubts in his heart as he quietly walked into a courtyard.

Li Chen also came to this courtyard three years ago. He remembered that there was an old man who was over a hundred years old living here.

The entire courtyard was silent. Li Chen felt strange. When he came here, that old man was crazy, making such a ruckus that he was unrivalled. Why was it so quiet now?

Li Chen walked into the house lightly and saw that the old man's eyes were tightly shut. The muscles on his body were all sunken and his skin was tightly stuck to his body without any signs of life.

This person seemed to have been instantly sucked dry of all his anger and died!

Li Chen looked at it in astonishment. He seemed to have thought of something and hastily ran to another courtyard.

The man's muscles were all shriveled up as if he was just skin and bones. Surprisingly, the man's life force was also sucked out in an instant!

Li Chen ran back and forth across twenty courtyards and everyone died like the first old man.

At the end, Li Chen arrived at Xia Quan's courtyard next door. Xia Quan's originally young face had already turned gray. If it wasn't for him recognizing the ring on Xia Quan's hand, Li Chen wouldn't dare believe that it was Xia Quan!

Li Chen sighed. What he didn't know was that these few days, in order to suppress Li Chen in one go, Duan Aoyuan had forcefully absorbed too many people's spiritual energy, causing all of them to die.

This Heaven's Stolen Fortune was a divine art. If it wasn't good, it was an evil art.

In the end, Li Chen quietly left the Misty Peak.

From afar, the Misty Peak could be seen towering into the clouds, surrounded by palaces. It looked like a paradise on earth, but Li Chen knew that it would be difficult for the Misty Peak to regain its former glory.

There was also a small town at the foot of the Sword Inquisition Mountain. If Li Chen left, he would have to pass through this small town.

It had been three years since then, and he had no idea how his little sister was doing right now. Li Chen had originally planned to return to Beixuan City, but he did not expect to see a few familiar silhouettes nearby.

Those people were dressed in the clothes of a disciple who had just arrived at the entrance of the Sword Awareness Sect. One of them was giving orders to the others while the others were escorting some vehicles as if they had just bought some supplies.

Even though cultivators were different from mortals in terms of physique, it did not matter if they ate or drank anything for a short period of time. However, there were still some people who would occasionally train who would not be able to stop themselves from talking.

It was only because Li Chen had met Duan Ao Zhe at the bottom of the lake and been controlled by him for three years that his body was not destroyed. Now that Li Chen was in control of himself, he felt hungry.

He was planning to leave just like that, but Li Chen seemed to see a familiar face. Was that person Wen Feng?

Wen Feng looked clean and white, just like a wealthy young master from three years ago. Moreover, his talent in cultivation wasn't bad, so logically speaking, it was impossible for him to be at the Sword Ascension Sect even after three years.
