Chapter 2372: Chapter 2373: Fusion

Lin Chen’s disdain naturally had its reasons. From the situation before his eyes, this kind of Demonic Sect Cultivation Technique was extremely difficult to get started with, and its weaknesses were also starkly obvious.

Take the few priests right now for example: not only had they become feeble and frail from cultivating this method, but after the demonic creatures they summoned died, they themselves would suffer a tremendous backlash.

With this kind of cultivation, Lin Chen really couldn’t see what meaning it had.

"It’s said these people were originally unable to step onto the path of cultivation at all. Joining the Demonic Sect and cultivating this pathway is, in a sense, still a method."

Zheng He looked at Lin Chen’s utterly disdainful expression, then straightened his face and said, "Also, don’t underestimate the Demonic Sect’s Cultivation Techniques too much. Their conditions may be harsh, but the few pinnacle experts said to have appeared are not people who can be easily looked down on."

"Mm."

Lin Chen nodded. No matter what the matter, once it is taken to the extreme, the effects it brings are far from ordinary.

It’s just that there are thousands upon thousands of paths in this world, and unfortunately the one these people chose was the hardest of them all.

"Now they’re dead, so what am I supposed to do like this?"

Lin Chen could only give a bitter smile and sigh.

He stretched out his hand; the skin on his hand was still pitch-black like ink, which made Lin Chen extremely uncomfortable. He couldn’t possibly go see people looking like this for the rest of his life, could he?

"Actually, it’s not that bad. Look, at night you can still be an assassin—no one will be able to see you. What a wonderful feeling."

Zheng He leaned closer to Lin Chen’s shoulder, teasing him with a face full of mockery.

"Then let’s switch!"

"No, no, no, that’d be stealing your good fortune."

Zheng He hurriedly shook his head; he absolutely did not want to turn into what Lin Chen looked like now.

Hearing what Zheng He said, Lin Chen couldn’t help feeling dejected. The priests were already dead, and he’d lost someone he could ask for answers.

Just as they were talking, an anomaly suddenly appeared in the sky above.

It was Lu Kang from earlier; at this moment he had already rushed to his own true body. His expression was somewhat greedy as he used Kong Jingyi’s body to press the two heads together, brow to brow.

Lu Kang’s hand was still caressing his original true body, and the way he did it was downright sickly.

But this was only natural. After all, Lu Kang had been separated from this body for nearly a hundred years.

With such a long span of time, even though Lu Kang still retained his consciousness, with only that consciousness alone, he couldn’t stir up any great waves.

He was a Body Cultivation cultivator of the Demonic Sect; the toughness of his body could be easily imagined.

Lu Kang took a light breath, and immediately a tiny hole opened at the center of Kong Jingyi’s brows. The hole was extremely small, yet a stream of aura sprayed out from within.

And on Lu Kang’s true body, the center of his forehead displayed a similar scene, the circular opening seemingly accepting that flashing stream as it entered.

In just a few short moments, Kong Jingyi’s eyes suddenly shut. He lost his original luster, and his body plummeted down from midair with a thunderous crash.

As he fell, one could clearly see the flesh and blood of his body evaporating away, leaving only a few white bones dropping from the sky.

From such a height, of course those bones shattered into fragments when they hit the ground.

Lin Chen was startled by this disturbance and immediately raised his eyes with Zheng He and the others to look up.

Up above, Lu Kang finally began moving slowly.

He first raised his hand; a faint light appeared within his previously dull pupils as his gaze fell upon that arm.

He looked it up and down, his expression all the more obsessed.

Lu Kang suddenly took a deep, forceful breath, as if testing whether the air this body inhaled was still the same as before.

But just as he sucked in sharply, something seemed to be lurking in his nose, and with that heavy inhalation, it shot into his nostrils with a swishing sound.

Through the connected throat, it actually rushed straight into his intestines!

And in the process, an intense putrid stench spread out from within. That smell was extremely pungent, darting up and down inside Lu Kang’s body, making him feel unbearably nauseated.

"Heh heh, wonder how that tastes."

Seeing this, Lin Chen immediately understood. He stroked Little White’s smooth fur, a sly glint flashing in his eyes.

Earlier he had forcibly stuffed that strip of cloth into the nose of Lu Kang’s true body; from the outside, there was no sign to be seen.

If Lu Kang’s mouth hadn’t been so hard to pry open, Lin Chen would have wanted him to swallow those strips of cloth whole.

Little White tilted its head up, seeming somewhat proud. It let out a soft whimper, its voice carrying far, landing right in Lu Kang’s ears.

"Ah! It’s you damned beast playing tricks again!"

Lu Kang couldn’t help but roar in fury. From Little White’s excited cry and the disgusting feeling rushing around inside him, Lu Kang also pieced it together. This was clearly the work of Lin Chen and Little White at his side.

He raged nonstop, and after forcing down much of the nauseating stench in his body, he charged violently toward Lin Chen and Little White.

"You think you can stop me?"

Just as he was rushing forward, Liu Qinghan suddenly appeared in front of Lu Kang. He hovered there lightly, his expression showing neither joy nor anger, only a faint calm. He blocked Lu Kang’s path here; faced with Lu Kang’s fury, he had no intention of yielding.

"Courting death!"

Lu Kang bellowed. He instantly clenched his fist, the veins on it bulging as it gathered an extremely terrifying power.

He stepped forward, and after spitting out those two words, his fist was already swinging out.

The fist he threw wasn’t large, just about the size of a normal human’s, but the power it unleashed left everyone dumbstruck.

With that single punch, even though Liu Qinghan had raised a defense, it still had no effect at all.

The pale blue light barrier before Liu Qinghan shattered in an instant, like a jade mirror exploding into pieces. Immediately after, Liu Qinghan’s body was sent flying.

But Liu Qinghan’s strength was formidable after all. Though he was sent soaring like that, there wasn’t the slightest injury on his body, and his aura remained steady.

He might not have much combat ability, but how could his cultivation itself be something to underestimate?

Besides, what Liu Qinghan cultivated wasn’t offensive techniques to begin with, so under these circumstances, even though he was blasted away, he suffered no damage.

It’s just that after taking such a strike, Liu Qinghan found it hard to intercept Lu Kang’s forward momentum again. Lu Kang’s true body before them now was far beyond what it had been just moments ago; in terms of both strength and speed, it had gained an enormous boost.

"Lin Chen, be careful!"

Far off in the distance, Sun Tianming shouted.
