Chapter 154 Strength increases again
After arriving at the backyard, he found several people tied to wooden stakes and seriously injured. Zhou Chen went forward to check and found that they were still breathing. He immediately swung his knife to cut the ropes on their bodies. At this time, Leng Ningshuang and the other girl also rushed over.

"Brother Zhou, you."

"This is my clone, and the one fighting the monster in the front yard is my main body." The two girls were shocked when they heard his words. They were all from the Demon Suppression Bureau and had heard of the magical power of clones, but they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw it with their own eyes.

At this time, another woman said, "Brother Zhou, you are so awesome."

After hearing this, Zhou Chen scratched his head and said, "It's just a side path." Leng Ningshuang introduced, "This is my good friend Li Rongrong, from the ninth team of Suzaku Hall. I came here to help at his invitation. I didn't expect that this rat demon is so powerful. If it weren't for you, we would have all been trapped here."

As for his teammates, Zhou Chen used his magical powers to rejuvenate them. The clones could also wear or change the magic patterns, so Zhou Chen saved them and healed them at the same time.

The rat poison that infected Leng Ningshuang and the other person only limited their cultivation, and there was nothing else wrong with it. Zhou Chen's rejuvenation was ineffective against the poison that infected the two of them, and those injured colleagues also had the poison in their bodies.

The battle between Zhou Chen and the rat demon in the front yard has reached its most intense moment. The rat demon has used all his tricks but still cannot hurt Zhou Chen at all. At this time, he has already decided to retreat.

"Boy, it's not easy to practice. How about I stop here?"
"Haha, you want to stop here? You're dreaming." Then Zhou Chen instantly condensed the Fengyun Sword and chopped down. Seeing this, the rat demon immediately gathered all his demonic power to resist, but his defense was instantly broken and his body was frozen.

Although his body was frozen, his physique was strong and not completely frozen, it was just restricted.

At this moment, the rat demon's face was filled with fear. Although he was not dead, he no longer had the strength to fight. The remaining demonic power in his body was not enough to support him to break through the ice outside the body.

Zhou Chen immediately retreated ten meters and a huge magic circle appeared behind him. A giant ice sword immediately flew out and killed the rat demon on the spot. At the same time, the power of the Gale Sword continued unabated, and it flew towards the house behind him.

With a loud bang, the house collapsed. Zhou Chen's clone in the backyard smiled and said, "Okay, the trouble is solved." Without waiting for anyone to react, Zhou Chen's clone disappeared into the air. Then Zhou Chen's real body came closer.

Before they could say anything, the scene around them began to change. Within a few seconds, the originally new house immediately became dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, and there were many spider webs hanging on the walls.

"how so"?
"The rat demon is dead, so the illusion here will naturally disappear." Zhou Chen then took a few people out of the yard and found a new place to set up camp. As for the rat demon's lair, there was nothing there that excited Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen was in charge of keeping watch at night, letting them have a good rest before heading back to Wu'an County tomorrow. Zhou Chen then began to check the harvest this time. The two big rat monsters each contributed a sixth-grade monster pattern to him. As for those lower-grade rat monsters, Zhou Chen did not look at them carefully, and directly chose to decompose them to obtain 500 strengthening points.

The two sixth-grade demon patterns, one ordinary and the other rare, were of no use to Zhou Chen. After thinking about it, he also chose to decompose them and obtained seventy strengthening points.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen spent 500 points to strengthen the God Killing Technique to the great perfection realm. In an instant, all the surrounding air gathered towards Zhou Chen's body. An hour later, his God Killing Technique directly broke through to the great perfection realm and increased his strength by a hundred years.

In an instant, his martial arts skills directly reached the level of 345 years, and the improvement of his martial arts skills made up for his previously lost martial arts skills instantly. In this instant, Zhou Chen returned to his peak state.

The next morning, Zhou Chen led a few people to start their journey. To his surprise, their internal strength began to recover slowly. Although it was not fully recovered, it was recovered a little. Zhou Chen originally planned to let them rest for a day until they were fully recovered, but they were in a hurry to travel, and Zhou Chen had no objection to this. They returned to Wu'an County before the city gate was closed. It was safe to enter the city, so Zhou Chen did not continue to escort them but let them go back.

At the Li Mansion, the patriarch of the Li family was practicing in seclusion. There was a knock on the door and someone said, "Master Li and his men have failed. As for Zhou Chen, he disappeared in the city on the day Master Li and his men left the city and only came back today. So I suspect that he was most likely the one who did it."

Li Mu, the head of the Li family, slowly opened his eyes and said, "It's this guy again. It seems he wants to fight to the death with me." Then the door suddenly opened and the person outside walked in.

On the second day, Zhou Chen received an invitation letter. The person who invited him was none other than Li Mu, the head of the Li family. Looking at the invitation letter in his hand, Zhou Chen wondered, "Why did this guy invite me? Does he want to make peace with me?"

Leng Yiyao had already prepared the meal by this time, "Brother Chen, come and eat," Zhou Chen responded and went. After the meal, Zhou Chen went to the Demon Suppression Division, leaving Leng Yiyao alone.

After clearing away the dishes, Leng Yiyao went to the yard to practice swordplay. The swordplay she practiced was a set of swordplay that Zhou Chen had exchanged from the library in the Demon Suppression Bureau. Although the Demon Suppression Bureau did not allow it to be passed on to outsiders, as long as Zhou Chen did not say anything, such things would generally be fine, and the Demon Suppression Bureau would just turn a blind eye.

Suddenly, a voice came from his heart, "If you keep practicing like this, how long will it take you to achieve success? You have a good talent, but it's a waste of it to practice this kind of swordsmanship."

Hearing the sudden voice, Leng Yiyao looked around in panic, "Who is it?" But after looking around, she didn't see anyone. She couldn't help but wonder if she had heard it wrong.

Then he started practicing with the sword again, but after a while he heard another burst of giggles. This time he was sure that someone was watching him.

"Who are you? Come out now and stop hiding."

Following a burst of laughter, a ball of black mist appeared in front of his eyes, and then the black mist condensed into an illusory figure. Without waiting for Leng Yiyao to speak, the figure spoke first and said, "Do you want to become stronger? I can help you."

This guy has an evil aura all over his body and he doesn't look like a good person. Leng Yiyao said with a look of disgust, "I can practice on my own without your help."

"Haha, do you really think that you can cultivate to your current level with your own strength? If it weren't for me, you would be at most just a mere ninth-grade warrior now."

Leng Yiyao asked doubtfully, "What do you mean? What does my current strength have to do with you?"
The black shadow smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I have always been in your body. It is because of my secret help that you have reached your current level of cultivation. That is why you have made such rapid progress."

Leng Yiyao was shocked after hearing this, "What? You said you have always been inside me?"
"Yes, I have been attached to your body since the day you were born."

Leng Yiyao looked incredulous, "How is this possible?" The black shadow was about to speak, but Leng Yiyao directly split the black shadow in half with a knife. The black shadow did not expect Leng Yiyao to do this suddenly.

However, with his strength, he could not hurt himself at all. The black shadow that was split into two halves by the knife reunited and condensed into a virtual shadow.
