At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

"Oops!"

Lin Chen frowned when he felt the dangerous breath coming from behind.

Lin Chen hurriedly accelerated and performed "Eight Steps of Heaven and Earth" to escape as soon as possible.

And this time, Lin Chen did not choose the escape route because that place was closest to the python.

He chose another escape route, which was a swamp, very muddy and soft, very suitable for escape.

Unfortunately, Lin Chen still underestimated the viscosity of the swamp mud, and the swamp mud seemed to contain some kind of toxin.

As soon as Lin Chen approached the swamp, his feet began to become sticky.

"Damn! This swamp mud actually contains a deadly poison, and my body is rotting!"

Looking at the swamp mud that was constantly rotting under his feet, Lin Chen's face suddenly changed.

The swamp mud, although it is mud in the silt, contains a deadly poison.

Once contaminated, Lin Chen will definitely be poisoned.

At that time, it would be even more difficult for Lin Chen to get rid of the giant python.

"Humph!"

Seeing Lin Chen trapped in the swamp, the giant python couldn't help but get excited secretly, and spoke in human language: "Hahahaha, you can't escape after all! I want to see if your skin can really resist my poison!"

However, despite this, the giant python did not pounce on him immediately. After all, this human was still a little capable, so he had to be more cautious.

However, at this moment, the giant python suddenly found that Lin Chen's figure in the mud seemed to disappear.

"How can this human move so fast? Is he shuttling through the swamp? No! There is no obstacle in the swamp, and the color of the swamp is also dark, and it is not clear at all, so how does he move?"

The giant python said in his heart.

As the giant python was puzzled.

At this time, black rays of light suddenly shot over from the swamp.

"Venom!"

The giant python reacted very quickly.

However, there were too many venoms shot out by Lin Chen.

And all of these venoms were highly toxic.

For a moment, the body of the giant python was covered with black liquid.

The giant python screamed miserably, twitched all over, and kept rolling. The flesh and blood in its body were also rapidly rotting.

"Such a strong corrosiveness! The toxicity of this venom is definitely comparable to the poison of the soul!"

Looking at the giant python festering and twitching constantly, Lin Chen's eyes became solemn.

"However, even if it is highly toxic, it can't kill me! My defense is very terrifying! I want to see how long your poison can last!"

"Roar!"

The giant python hissed angrily, opened its bloody mouth, and bit towards Lin Chen, trying to swallow Lin Chen into its stomach.

It can be seen that the giant python's mouth is full of black spikes, and the flesh and blood around its mouth has turned dark green.

Obviously, the giant python has eaten highly toxic.

However, although the poison is strong, it can't do anything to Lin Chen.

"I don't believe it! How long can your venom last?".

Lin Chen sneered, and dodged directly, while waving the thunder wand in his hand.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Hundreds of thunders exploded in an instant, turning into electric nets, covering the giant python's body.

"Ah!"

This time, Lin Chen's attack was not wasted at all, and the giant python was directly covered. The current quickly invaded the giant python's body along the giant python's body.

Moreover, after the current spread to the giant python, it actually generated high temperature, causing the giant python's scales to turn black, making a sizzling sound, which looked extremely terrifying.

"Damn human! How dare you hurt this king! This king will not forgive you!"

The giant python howled in pain.

This giant python was originally a poisonous snake. Although it was a poisonous spirit beast, its skin was very tough because its body was too big.

However, Lin Chen's electric current could burn the scales on the surface of the giant python's body into charcoal, which caused great damage to the giant python's body.

This severe pain also made the giant python completely furious. It suddenly opened its huge mouth and let out a shocking dragon roar, trying to swallow Lin Chen into its stomach.

Lin Chen's face changed.

This giant python actually wanted to swallow itself?

Lin Chen didn't dare to let the giant python swallow it.

So, Lin Chen's body suddenly turned around and prepared to escape from the swamp and leave here.

"Want to escape? Dream on!"

Seeing Lin Chen was about to leave, the giant python suddenly spit out a group of green mist from its mouth.

These mists are highly poisonous!

These venoms are enough to easily dissolve steel and even metal. Even a Yuanying stage strongman would be in danger of death if he encountered this highly toxic venom.

So, Lin Chen's situation is very critical.

Lin Chen's body had just rushed out of the swamp mud, but was hit hard by a ball of green poison and flew out and hit the mountain wall.

Puff! ~

Lin Chen couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

These poisons are really overbearing.

And the poison can penetrate into his internal organs, limbs, bones and tendons.

Ordinary practitioners will definitely die of poisoning after encountering this kind of poison.

And now, Lin Chen's condition is already very bad.

"No! You must find a way to save yourself as soon as possible, otherwise, you will definitely be eaten by this giant python tonight!"

Lin Chen thought secretly.

"Huh? Where's that giant python?"

Lin Chen looked around, only to find that the giant python had already fled far away, and there was no trace at all.

"No matter what! Find a way to treat yourself first!"

Lin Chen frowned slightly, then his figure flashed again and rushed forward.

Soon, Lin Chen's eyes suddenly opened up, and a majestic palace came into Lin Chen's eyes.

Moreover, there were two rows of guards standing outside the palace.

"Huh? This is it? Is this the city lord's palace?"

Lin Chen looked at the palace with doubts in his heart.

This palace does not look luxurious, and the cultivation level of the guards outside the palace is only at the golden elixir level.

Although this is the largest city in Xizhou, and the royal family here is also very powerful, with the cultivation of these guards, Lin Chen does not need to worry about anything.

That's why Lin Chen dared to enter here directly.

Lin Chen was just about to move forward.

However, at this moment, the guards saw Lin Chen and quickly knelt down respectfully and said, "See you, sir!"

"grown ups?".

Hearing these two words, Lin Chen's mind flashed.

These guards saw themselves and called themselves sir.

Then, this is probably the city lord's palace in Xizhou City!

And these guards call themselves adults, so obviously, they should be the lord of Xizhou City!

Lin Chen smiled slightly and asked, "Am I the lord of Xizhou City now?"

"It's the Lord of the City!"

The guards nodded respectfully.

Lin Chen was slightly startled.

"Lord City Lord, we all know your identity, so you are now the Lord City Lord of Xizhou City! But Lord City Lord, don't get me wrong, we are only responsible for maintaining the peace of Xizhou City! If anyone dares to invade, We will kill without mercy!"

The leading guard said quickly.

After hearing his explanation, Lin Chen suddenly realized.

So this is ah……

However, Lin Chen didn't think these people would really protect him! Because they are not afraid that they are the lord of Xizhou City.

Lin Chen would not believe the nonsense they told.

"I have something to do now, please step aside!" Lin Chen waved his hand.

Although these guards do not know what is going on with the new city lord, they will still not disobey the city lord's orders.

Now these people left one after another.

Lin Chen sat down in the lobby of the city lord's mansion.

At this time, Lin Chen carefully observed the city lord's mansion.

This city lord's mansion is not like other city lord's mansions, which have magnificent decorations. Instead, it is a simple wooden house, which looks very simple.

But that’s fine too.

This kind of architectural style can hide Lin Chen's identity.

Moreover, Lin Chen could feel that there were many powerful beings inside the city lord's palace, and the auras of these powerful beings were many times deeper than his own.

This shows that everyone in the city lord's mansion is not weak in strength.

"It seems that if I want to survive now, I have to be careful."

"But there are so many powerful beings in this city lord's palace, so if I want to save myself, it will be much more difficult."

"However, in my current situation, I can only rely on myself..."

Lin Chen shook his head, no longer thinking about this matter, and began to adjust his condition with his legs crossed.

After all, he had just been injured.

Now, Lin Chen just hopes to recover his physical condition as soon as possible so that he can leave here as soon as possible.

Although Lin Chen's cultivation level is only at the fifth level of the foundation building stage.

However, Lin Chen's soul has reached the ninth level of the foundation building stage.

The strength of the divine soul is more than ten times that of ordinary people! Moreover, Lin Chen's body and body have also reached the eighth level of the Golden Core stage. Therefore, Lin Chen's current comprehensive quality of body and body is even comparable to that of a peak person at the ninth level of the Golden Core stage. The strong one.

However, Lin Chen's current situation is very special.

His body was severely injured, and there were still toxins left in his body, so if he wanted to recover, he had to use the elixir!

Moreover, Lin Chen himself did not have much of this kind of elixir.

After much deliberation, Lin Chen could only use his soul to get rid of those toxins.

And the effect of soul is the best!

Therefore, Lin Chen was going to try to use his soul to get rid of the toxins in his body.

At this time, Lin Chen's soul also quietly lurked into the body of the spiritual grass.

Although Lingcao's body is huge, its spirituality is very low. The moment the soul lurks into its body, it immediately becomes vigilant.

However, when it saw clearly who the soul lurking in its body was, it was startled again.

Because, this spiritual grass is Lin Chen's soul!

"Are you a soul monk?"

Seeing Lin Chen's soul, Ling Cao exclaimed, seemingly not expecting that Lin Chen was also a soul monk.

"it's me".

Lin Chen said lightly.

When Lingcao heard Lin Chen's words, he was surprised.

Unexpectedly, in this world, there is someone with a higher cultivation level than himself, and he is also a soul monk whose cultivation level is much stronger than himself!

"Okay! Since you know me, help me detoxify!"

Lin Chen said.

"No problem," Lingcao nodded.

"However, you need to remove the toxins from your body first! Otherwise, even if I help you detoxify, there is no way I can guarantee that you can successfully remove all the toxins from your body. When the time comes, you will still have the toxins in your body." There are residual toxins, so you will still die!"

Lingcao said.

Hearing this, Lin Chen also nodded.

"Okay, I will follow your instructions," Lin Chen nodded and said.

As a result, the spiritual grass began to control the black mist in the body, which continued to surge, and then formed a strange pattern on Lin Chen's chest.

Lin Chen was shocked when he saw Lingcao's imitation.

Spiritual grass actually possesses such superb attainments.

What kind of terrifying method is this?

It is indeed a top power that has been inherited for tens of thousands of years!

The method of this spiritual grass is indeed extraordinary. It is enough to simply control the black mist in the body.

Soon, the black mist condensed into a strange rune on Lin Chen's body.

After this strange rune was formed, it quickly penetrated into Lin Chen's chest.

Then, it wandered inside Lin Chen's chest.

Inside Lin Chen's body, the black mist was constantly absorbing the remaining poison in Lin Chen's body.

Lin Chen's body was corroded by toxins.

The black mist is devouring these toxins and tempering the body.

Soon, Lin Chen's body surface was covered with dense black toxins, and these black toxins were continuously inhaled into his body by Lin Chen.

As the black toxin continued to integrate into Lin Chen's body.

Lin Chen's body slowly became stronger and stronger, and his body was filled with a majestic power, which made Lin Chen a little excited.

"call……"

Breakthrough!

Finally a breakthrough!

Lin Chen opened his eyes and sighed.

Breakthrough to the fifth level of foundation building stage.

"As expected of the spiritual beasts in this city! They are indeed amazing! Whether it is the corpses of these spiritual beasts or the various elixirs and rare materials here, they are all of the best quality! This trip has made a lot of money!"

Lin Chen murmured to himself.

However, this city is too dangerous.

Therefore, Lin Chen didn't want to stay any longer.

"The body of a spiritual beast?" Lin Chen's eyes fell on the large cave next to him.

"I want to take its body away."

Lingcao said.

"Oh? This corpse is worth a lot of money, isn't it? Could it be some kind of fairy weapon? Or a magic weapon?" Lin Chen asked doubtfully.

"Haha, it's not that, it's just some rare spiritual materials, and it has no effect on me, so I plan to give it to my master!"

Lingcao said.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your master must be that old man, right? However, your master is a bit too stingy, right? He can't even bear to give you such a precious elixir!"

"Hmph, although these elixirs are precious, in our eyes, these elixirs are nothing! Therefore, my master doesn't bother to collect such elixirs," Ling Cao said proudly.

"Really? Thank you then"

Lin Chen said with a slight smile.

Although he didn't bother to collect these elixirs, being able to exchange them for a spiritual herb would naturally be a huge profit for Lin Chen.

"You're welcome," Lingcao said before flying towards the cave.

Lin Chen followed the spiritual grass and flew into the cave. Soon, the spiritual grass arrived at the heart of the mountain.

The spiritual grass rushed directly towards the huge cave. During the impact of the spiritual grass, all the surrounding soil and stones were thrown away.

Boom! ~

There were waves of shaking sounds.

Lin Chen saw that in the deepest part of the huge cave, there was a long floor passage that led directly to the depths of the ground.

The floor passage extends unknown how far.

It seems that that place is where the giant beast king lives.

As the floor passage extends downward, the beast king becomes even larger.

At this time, Lin Chen finally understood why Lingcao was so afraid of the giant beast king.

It turns out that there is such a terrifying existence deep in the underground.

At this time, Lingcao had brought Lin Chen to the deepest part of the earth, where the underground king lived.

Deep underground, it was pitch black without any light.

However, within Lin Chen's field of vision, he saw many elixirs, and some of them were emitting bright light.

"Not bad, not bad." A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Lin Chen's face.

Although there are a lot of elixirs in his storage ring, this elixir is far less dazzling than the light emitted by that elixir.

Moreover, the spiritual grass here seems to be more pure.

"Spiritual grass! Spiritual grass! I want a lot of spiritual grass! I must cultivate your spiritual roots! Let you completely become my pet!"

At this time, this thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind.

Moreover, Lingcao also said that the elixirs here are all top-quality elixirs, and they all have spiritual intelligence. If they can be tamed, they will be of great help to themselves.

After all, with his own soul fire, he can perfectly grasp their will.

Therefore, he must cultivate spiritual plant masters as soon as possible, so that their will can be completely integrated into his soul fire.

In this way, he can fully exert the power of spiritual herbs.

Lin Chen said in his heart.

"Spiritual herbs! Spiritual herbs! Wake up! I want a lot of spiritual herbs! Wake up quickly, follow me, you will become my spiritual pet!"

Lin Chen shouted in his heart.

However, what disappointed Lin Chen was that he shouted for a long time, but there was still no movement in the underground cave.

"It seems that it is really an old monster that has lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years?"

Looking at the spiritual medicines, Lin Chen muttered in his mouth.

"It seems that this time, I'm really rich..."

"However, this underground cave is too weird! There are so many corpses of spirit beasts here, and it seems that there are a lot of them! Moreover, the space in this underground cave is also very special. It seems to be more than ten times larger than the space outside, or even a hundred times! This kind of regional gap is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear. I wonder how this place was made? Is it really designed and excavated by the Heavenly Court?"

Lin Chen said secretly.

"That's right! Since there are so many precious spiritual medicines here, how could that senior give up these treasures? And he is unwilling to trade them?"

Lin Chen thought secretly.

"Forget it! Let's go and take a look first!"

Lin Chen said in his heart.

Then, Lin Chen followed closely behind the spirit grass and rushed forward.
