Chapter 19 Cao Meng
At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of horse hooves approaching from far away. After leaving the city gate, they drove quickly towards the east along the road.
"Fifth brother, it is indeed the Chen family's caravan! I just don't know if that kid from the Chen family is in it." An informant from the Zhao family who was ambushing in the distance ran back and said respectfully to the middle-aged man, the fifth brother.
"It should be so. Everyone, please pay attention. After they leave, we will follow. It is not appropriate to take action now. Wait until there is no one before taking action. Be sure to do it cleanly!" Fifth Brother spoke again, with a flash of light on his face. Bloodthirsty color.
Others naturally did not dare to refute. After the Chen family's motorcade slowly walked away, the Zhao family's twenty-odd people took out their horses and vehicles, disguised as a caravan, and followed not far behind the Chen family's motorcade.
When the last ray of the setting sun returned to the horizon, the sky became darker and darker, but Chen Xiao's motorcade did not stop. Instead, it accelerated towards the east.
On the last carriage of the motorcade, Chen Xiao's closed eyes slowly opened with a faint smile on his face.
Just now, he made another breakthrough.
Although it is not very convenient to practice on a carriage, who is Chen Xiao?
Coupled with the magic of the Void Body Refining Art, Chen Xiao can easily practice and improve his cultivation even without absorbing the nearby spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Two Qi Gathering Pills only allowed me to advance to the middle stage of a four-star warrior. Although it's a little worse than expected, it's still pretty good!" Chen Xiao showed a faint smile on his lips, especially after he just discovered the one inside his body. The special purpose of the Void Tower brought a bigger smile on his face.
The Qi Gathering Pills on his body were naturally bought by Chen Xiao from the Art Refiners Guild. After winning more than 200,000 gold coins, Chen Xiao immediately spent more than 100,000 gold coins to buy a hundred Qi Gathering Pills. At the same time, He also purchased heavenly materials and earthly treasures for various purposes, among which medicinal materials for improving cultivation were the most numerous. If he hadn't had the Qiankun Ring that could be used for storage, Chen Xiao could have even exchanged all those gold coins for elixirs.
After all, gold coins are of little use to him, but pills are different!
After these elixirs were purified by the black flames in the mouth of the black dragon entrenched on the void tower in the sea of consciousness, their efficacy was more than twice as good as before. Not only could Chen Xiao quickly refine and improve his cultivation, but it could also be further fed back to that person. The strange black dragon itself lights up the dragon scales.
Most importantly, Chen Xiao discovered that after communicating through the sea of consciousness, he could directly borrow the power of those dragon scales!
From the first time Black Fire took the initiative to purify the elixir, Chen Xiao noticed something strange. After the test just now, Chen Xiao completely confirmed that after Black Fire purified the medicinal liquid for Chen Xiao, although most of it was He gave it back to Chen Xiao, but Black Fire himself also withheld some of the medicinal power and gave it directly to the strange black dragon.
This was discovered by Chen Xiao after he accidentally looked at the scale at the end of the black dragon's tail.
At that time, Chen Xiao discovered that after the black fire returned with the medicinal liquid, the medicinal liquid flowed directly into the black dragon's mouth. Finally, on the black dragon's tail, a palm-sized dragon scale was slowly lit up.
If the black dragon is dark in color as a whole, then the scales that are lit up are deep black, which is particularly eye-catching!
Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Xiao found that once he communicated with the dragon scales, the power inside the dragon scales would directly act on Chen Xiao's body, as if Chen Xiao himself possessed this power, and there was no problem in controlling it. Feeling unfamiliar.
Although it has not been tested yet, Chen Xiao can roughly feel that the dragon scale has at least increased his strength by nearly a hundred kilograms!
One dragon scale weighs one hundred kilograms. Looking at the eighteen thousand dragon scales in the sea of consciousness, Chen Xiao could not imagine it!
Once all these dragon scales are lit up, how terrifying will my power be?
Even when Chen Xiao reached the peak of the Martial God, his physical strength was only about one million kilograms. This was an effect that Chen Xiao could only achieve by paying special attention to physical training. An ordinary Martial God strongman could even reach 800,000 kilograms. Even a kilogram may not be achieved.
Once I light up all the dragon scales, I am afraid that even my physical body will be able to defeat the powerful warriors in the Martial God Realm, right?
This is just the power of dragon scales. What if you add your own power?
Of course, it's too early to think about this now. At this moment, Chen Xiao doesn't even know how much energy is needed to light up a dragon scale. All of this needs to be explored slowly by himself.
Just when Chen Xiao was planning to continue swallowing pills to practice, the motorcade had already stopped.
"Everyone come down to help. We will sleep here tonight and set off on our journey tomorrow morning!" A slightly low voice sounded, enough for the entire convoy to hear clearly.
Chen Xiao knew that this was the voice of the team leader Cao Meng.
Cao Meng, a capable guard of the Chen family and a member of the Chen family's guard team. Because his cultivation had reached the level of a three-star martial artist, he was sent to escort the Dongyun Mountain ore caravan. This time Chen Xiao came over. People have talked on the road.
Sure enough, before Chen Xiao could stand up, Cao Meng's voice rang out from outside the carriage: "Master Chen Xiao, I'm sleeping here tonight, why don't you come down and have something to eat?"
"Okay!" Chen Xiao nodded with a smile, then opened the curtain and walked out.
After coming out, Chen Xiao discovered that he didn't know what kind of suburb this place was anymore. Except for a ten-meter-wide road, it was surrounded by low trees on both sides. At this moment, in an open space on the left, the servants of the motorcade and Chen Some members of the family began to light bonfires one after another.
When Chen Xiao came down, all the people's eyes naturally gathered on Chen Xiao involuntarily. It was not because Chen Xiao's current status was so noble, but because these people were very curious about Chen Xiao. A young master of the Chen family whose cultivation had been abolished was actually sent to the Dongyun Mountain Mine. Although it was not mining, but just supervision, it was enough to prove how unpopular Chen Xiao was in the Chen family now.
"What are you all in a daze? Hurry up and work, I'm almost starving to death. Don't sleep tonight if the tent is not set up!" Cao Meng took two steps forward and scolded those people, and then dispersed them.
As for being watched by the crowd, Chen Xiao seemed to be indifferent. This scene surprised Cao Meng a little. Although he didn't care about Chen Xiao, he was told by the head of the Chen family before going out to take good care of Chen Xiao along the way, so he naturally didn't dare to disobey the head's order.
Following Cao Meng to a campfire, many people had taken out game and started to grill it. After a while, a burst of fragrance floated out.
A Chen family guard held a large plate with a whole roasted chicken on it and brought it to Chen Xiao and Cao Meng, saying to them, "This is freshly roasted, Captain, Master Chen Xiao, you guys try it!"
"Thank you!" Chen Xiao took the initiative to speak, which surprised Cao Meng and the guard who brought the food, and then they smiled and nodded and left.
