The barbarians were angry and anxious, whereas the red wedding dress was not in a hurry after Lu Chen put down his weapon and chose to approach him slowly.
Seeing that the dark void of the red wedding gown was about to cover Lu Chen’s face, a black and red palm suddenly came out from above and pressed the headdress of the red wedding gown.
The horrible power slammed the headdress down and completely covered the dark void in the wedding gown’s face. Then, the palm suddenly turned and grabbed the headdress and the wedding gown up together.
The sudden attack caused the other clothes on the hanger to stop suddenly. Obviously, they didn’t see such an unexpected turning to happen.
At the same time, Lu Chen had already raised his head. But now, there was no longer a confused expression on his face, but just an indifferent face.
Your charming ability is good, but the enchantments on my Willpower from the Conqueror’s Haki and Master Swordsmanship are not a joke!
Of course Lu Chen wasn’t deceived by it. Putting down his weapon was just so the wedding gown would come closer to him.
I am reckless, but I’m no idiot.
Acting rashly was just Lu Chen’s way to better unleash his advantage of having a strong body in the battles.
But if someone really thinks that Lu Chen was a reckless fool, he would make them understand how wrong they were.
While Lu Chen snickered at it, the clothes on the hanger finally realized the situation and they lashed their sleeves at him.
At the same time, the red wedding gown in Lu Chen’s Ghost Hand also started struggling frantically.
To that, the indifferent Lu Chen just clenched his left palm.
[Bloodlust]
As the skill was activated, Lu Chen felt a terrifying suction force from his palm. A series of dark Evil energy was drained into his hand.
The Evil energy was no good stuff. A slight touch of it was enough to make an ordinary human to fall ill or worse, drive them mad.
But it was Lu Chen’s cursed Ghost Hand that was draining the Evil energy.
Not only does the Evil energy not bring any discomfort to him, but it even calmed down in his left hand.
Furthermore, there was a part of the Evil energy was purified by the Ghost Hand and flowed into Lu Chen’s body. Lu Chen felt like he has eaten a tonic and his body strength has suddenly increased a lot.
So this is how Bloodlust increases the caster’s Strength.
When Lu Chen was in his thoughts, his Ghost Hand stopped draining.
Even though it was only for a short while, half of the wedding gown’s Evil power was condensed in Lu Chen’s palm.
A portion of it was purified by the Ghost Hand and increased his strength but most of it was gathered in his palm.
Without any hesitation, Lu Chen clenched his left hand again and the Evil power Lu Chen condensed in his hand exploded right on the headdress followed by a loud boom of an explosion.
Krong—
As the Evil power in his hand was equivalent to half of the wedding gown’s full power, having it exploding on top of the wedding gown was not something it could’ve taken.
Chi—
The red wedding gown died in an instant.
Followed by its death, the wedding gown turned stale and part of it was torn into pieces in the explosion.
He casually tossed the wedding gown on the ground and turned to the hanger.
However, soon, he realized that the other six colorful clothes also died along with the red wedding gown’s death, and the hanger also shattered to the ground.
Right after, a series of system messages sounded in his ears.
[System Message: Host has killed a Black Coffin Vicious Specter—Red Wedding Gown and earned 1200 Mastery Points.]
[System Message: Host has killed a White Wander Roaming Spirit—Ghost Clothes and earned 100 Mastery Points.]
[System Message: Host has killed a White Wander Roaming Spirit—Ghost Clothes and earned 100 Mastery Points.]
…
100 points for the ordinary Ghost Clothes and 1200 for the Red Wedding Gown. That’s a lot!
Although the Mastery Points awarded were lots, Lu Chen wasn’t all that happy. He was not dumb and quickly realized that having worthed 1200 Mastery Points, the Red Wedding Gown would naturally be extremely powerful.
Its defense is not that good, it won’t be worth that many points in this aspect. So this means the dark void underneath the headdress must be a very strong attack. Fortunately, I didn’t let it use its power.
I have to be more careful during hunting. I am not strong enough to ignore every danger.
Lu Chen’s dream was to be unbeatable as long as he was still standing. Sadly, Lu Chen was still too weak now. Hence, he would still have to use his brain in the battles and act rationally.
While he was thinking, he heard a running sound from a distance. He turned his head back around and discovered it was the chieftain while carrying Master Wuzu on his back.
“Where is the Black Coffin Evil? It escaped?”
As soon as he arrived, the chieftain’s loud voice could be heard shouting. At the same time, Lu Chen noticed he only had a piece of animal skin across his waist.
Clearly, he has rushed to the scene straight from his bed.
Whereas Master Wuzu’s attention was more on Lu Chen.
He got down from Da Shi’s back and walked to Lu Chen’s sides.
“Ah’Chen, are you… What’s with your hand?”
Lu Chen’s left hand has completely turned dark red in color from the infection of the Ghost Demons’ auras. It was clear that his left hand was cursed and so it was only natural Wuzu was surprised.
Lu Chen was placid about it, he already had prepared an explanation for this.
“It’s not a curse. My bloodline has awakened again. This the changes from the awakening.”
According to the information he listened in the past few days, Lu Chen understood that after the barbarians have awakened their bloodline, they could have mutations on their bodies. For example, growing a third eye, changing hair color, or a sudden increase in body size. It was perfectly normal.
In turn, it was only abnormal to have no changes at all. Hence, Lu Chen wasn’t afraid that his explanation would be questioned.
“Awakened again? Good, good. Pray the ancestors for their blessings!”
While Wuzu was happy, Lu Chen quickly changed the topic, he said, “Master Wuzu, I’ve killed the Evil, but two of our men died.”
Wuzu sighed when he saw the distorted bodies of the two barbarians and he said, “It’s a Black Coffin Evil, it’s lucky we only have two casualties. Don’t blame yourself for that.”
The chieftain also added from the side, “That’s right. We are the barbarians, we live and die in the battles. There’s nothing to be sad about. But you, your prowess is really improving so fast, you can even handle the Black Coffin Evil now.”
“I just got lucky.”
Compared to the rest, Lu Chen’s improvement was quick, but that wasn’t just because he was lucky, his hard work was also a big part of it.
For the past few days, Lu Chen has been going out hunting barbaric beast in the day and clearing Evils ar night. They have given him a lot of Mastery Points.
But one must understand, Lu Chen was putting himself at risk of dying anytime in the battles. If he was any weaker, he would’ve died during the battle with the drum Evil or the bowl Evil.
One could say, Lu Chen earned his prowess with his own life.
That, of course, Lu Chen wouldn’t mention anything about it. Whereas the chieftain also didn’t ask as in his opinion, Lu Chen’s fast increase in prowess was because of the awakened bloodline.
At the same time, the chieftain’s attention was quickly drawn to the shattered hanger and the broken clothes in front of him.
He looked at the shattered hanger, sighed and shook, and he said, “Two days ago, there was a black umbrella and now a hanger. A number of Evils with similar types have appeared together, this doesn’t look good. It feels like a Shadow Realm.”
Immediately, Master Wuzu slapped the chieftain’s hand with his walking stick.
“Don’t say it out, you might really attract a Shadow World here. It’s just two Evils that feel alike. It’s very normal. The Shadow Realms are not formed so easily.”
The conversation attracted Lu Chen’s attention and he quickly asked, “Shadow Realm? What is that?”
