Chen Heng did not reveal any flaws. He only left for less than half a month, which was not too long enough to arouse suspicion.
At the ruins, he used his phone carefully shrouded himself in fog from the beginning to the end due to security concerns so that no one could spy on him.
Based on the current situation, this security method was undoubtedly suitable, allowing Chen Heng to avoid a lot of trouble. To Chen Heng, everything around him was very stable, and there weren’t too many surprises.
As for Lu Yao’s side, although the specific situation wasn’t clear, Chen Heng did make a call home. Lu Yao had already returned home at that moment, and there was nothing unusual about her.
After learning that Lu Yao had returned home safely after exploring the ruins, and nothing terrible happened, Chen Heng did not say much. He just quietly returned to his usual work. He worked hard to practice and accumulate strength every day, preparing to advance to the next level, and was very close, based on the current situation.
Chen Heng sat alone in the quiet room and closed his eyes silently. The sunlight from the outside world shone on his body, making his slightly pale face very conspicuous. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.
‘Soon…’ He thought.
The power in his body had been accumulated, and based on Chen Heng’s senses, he was not far from the next level. With his current strength, if he were to advance one step further, he would be at the fourth rank, the so-called general position in this world.
The fourth rank. This level of strength was top-notch even in the entire Qika Federation.
Chen Heng did not do anything recently. Besides his daily practice, he also tried his best to gather information through the channels of the Black Dream Group, and he had gained a lot of secret information.
In short, there were some pretty powerful forces in this galaxy, and the Five Knights were the top five among them. They roamed across various planets in the galaxy, and their forces were highly massive.
The Qika Federation was not weak among these powerful forces, as they also took control of a planet. Within the Qika Federation, the most powerful existence was suspected to be at the sixth rank. Of course, this was merely Chen Heng’s guess and was not confirmed.
A sixth rank, coupled with an Ancient Mecha that could significantly increase one’s strength, was the most powerful force of the Qika Federation in the galaxy.
Moreover, the planets ruled by the Qika Federation were far more than the Qika planet. Those sixth rank’s existence were not stationed on this planet. The strongest ones that stayed on this planet were at most a fifth rank. And even if there were, there are certainly not many, all of which act as backbones. Under such circumstances, A fourth rank was already the peak.
Once Chen Heng broke through the fourth rank, with the power of the Ancient Armor, only a few people could match him on the entire Qika planet. Even if it was a fifth rank that may exist, it might not be impossible.
The leap was considered huge. And from Chen Heng’s current senses, he was now one step closer to advancing to the fourth rank, and it was not far away.
If others knew about this speed, they would be scared to death. How old was Chen Heng now? According to the standards of this world, he was only 17 years old. He hadn’t even reached adulthood yet, but he had already achieved this level of strength.
It had only been a few months from when Chen Heng advanced to the third rank until now. This speed was still too exaggerated, even if it was a rebuild.
However, Chen Heng had a different view on this. He felt that the reason why he was able to advance so quickly and recover his strength, among other factors, the most important reason was that he had a good teammate.
Chen Heng had not forgotten Wang Zhong, who had been implanted with the seed of killing by Chen Heng when he had encountered Chen Heng in the Qika League.
Wang Zhong had not disappointed Chen Heng in recent times. Ever since he had left, Chen Heng had received a lot of killing power almost every day. The quality and quantity shocked Chen Heng and made him feel surprised.
With such a capable and diligent worker around, it would be strange if Chen Heng’s speed of growth was not fast. Thinking of this, Chen Heng could not help but shake his head.
…
“Kill!”
In the chaotic space, the aura of killing permeates. In this area, the surrounding has become a bloody battlefield. There were bodies strewn about, and a figure stood tall.
Among the corpses all over the ground, Wang Zhong’s evil face looked in all directions. Around him, terrifying ferocious monsters were roaring. Their bodies were covered with a hazy aura, and they looked nasty.
However, even these monsters could not help but be shocked by Wang Zhong’s aura when they saw him, and they did not dare to take a step forward. This was because Wang Zhong’s current appearance was too terrifying.
His entire body was drenched in blood, and there was a thick bloody smell everywhere. Every drop of the blood of these demons was a lethal poison. If it were to touch a person’s body, it would be enough to corrode the person’s flesh and turn into rotten meat.
However, when the blood of these demons dripped onto Wang Zhong’s body, it was as if it was tickling him and could not cause any harm to him at all. On the contrary, on Wang Zhong’s body, a considerable amount of killing power surged and vaguely formed an invisible aura. It had a terrifying majesty as if a God from the legends had descended.
His appearance looked more like a demon than the surrounding demons. He didn’t look like a normal person anymore.
“Quick! Pull out the data!”
At this moment, a group of people was busy watching Wang Zhong’s body change from the outside. As Wang Zhong continued to kill, their faces were filled with horror, and they couldn’t help but gasp. Some of them looked disbelief as if they had seen something unreasonable.
“How could this be?” Someone muttered to himself.
At this moment, he was shocked. “From just now until now, Young Master Zhong’s strength has been increasing in all aspects. But how is this possible…”
He had not done anything, but his strength had continuously increased. This was an incredible thing even for the people of this world.
“Great!” The other members of the Wang family showed excitement on their faces.
The old man in the lead looked calm, but a smile appeared on his face at this moment. He seemed very happy. “He can continuously increase his power as long as he kills? Based on the test, is there a limit to this kind of ability?” He asked.
“N-No…” The researchers in charge shook their heads subconsciously and said, “Based on the test results, this improvement is all-rounded. Not only the physical quality but also the psyche power, spiritual power… all will be improved…”
“There are no shortcomings!” Someone continued, “Not only that, even his aptitude will be improved!”
“From just now until now, Young Master Zhong’s psyche power and martial artist’s talent have undergone varying degrees of improvement.”
Omnipotent! Everyone present could not help but reveal a pleasantly surprised expression. To them, the ability that Wang Zhong had awakened was undoubtedly a great surprise.
“There’s no downside. It was an all-rounded improvement. Even the most difficult talent can be improved…”
Even the old man couldn’t maintain his calmness at this moment. A strange light burst out from his eyes. “In that case, if I give him some time…”
The practice will become more difficult the further one progresses, as it was severely restricted by aptitude. With Wang Zhong’s original aptitude, even if the entire family provided him with strength, coupled with his hard work and good luck, he might still have the hope of advancing to the fourth rank and becoming a general in the future. Still, it was impossible if he wanted to advance further.
However, now, it might not be the case. The people present saw it very clearly. Ever since Wang Zhong had awakened this ability, he had been killing continuously. Within just one or two months, he had already broken through his original limit and was about to reach the fourth rank. If he continued to improve, it would be possible for him to reach a higher level.
When they thought of this possibility, everyone’s breathing quickened, and their faces flushed red. They were very excited because even if it had not reached that level, the possibility was good enough to make them feel excited.
As for the fact that this ability requires killing, no one thinks there is anything wrong. It was just a need to kill, and it wasn’t a big deal. Moreover, it didn’t mean that they had to kill people.
Based on their current test results, the killing target wasn’t important at all. It could be a person, a beast, or an alien creature. As long as it was a living creature, he could start killing. However, the stronger the target, the higher the level of life, and the more significant the improvement.
This was easy to solve. The target would be easy to find if it was just a simple killing. There were a lot of secret realms in this world, and many of them had strange life forms that needed to be cleaned up.
Worse come to worse, he could even kill wild beasts. As for killing people, of course, he could, but the cost-benefit ratio was not very high, so it was not the best option.
In short, with the Wang family’s ability and the extent of this universe, Wang Zhong would not lack targets to kill.
“It’s just that…” Looking at the excitement on the Wang family’s faces, the researcher could not help but hesitate for a moment before continuing, “This ability is not without its sequelae…”
“As his strength increases, Young Master Zhong will also become less and less conscious. He seemed to be affected by that unknown force, and he won’t maintain his calmness most of the time. It’s fine for now, but if this continues, Young Master Zhong’s condition will probably get worse…”
“This is indeed a problem.” Hearing the researcher’s words, the old man in the lead frowned. He also felt that there was something wrong.
This was indeed a flaw if he had obtained powerful strength, but he could not maintain his mind. If they didn’t make up for it, there would be some problems in the end. Of course, even if that was the case, it was impossible to make them give up this mysterious ability. Not to mention them, even Wang Zhong himself would disagree.
Consciousness problems could be made up with other methods. The technology in this world was very advanced. There were many ways to appease the mind and solve this problem. Many secret treasures in the universe could also strengthen and eliminate the distracting thoughts in his mind. After that, he just needed to send more people to pay attention to these things. The old man thought and then gave the order.
In the secret realm in front, Wang Zhong was still crazily killing. As the killing continued, streams of blood-colored aura gradually gathered around his body, forming a blood-colored halo. It was exceptionally bright and unique, making him look highly terrifying, like a blood-colored demonic God.
The feeling of continuously strengthening oneself through killing was indeed great. He continued moving forward as he felt the power surging within his body. His heart became even more excited as he crazily charged forward.
However, he didn’t know that when he started the killing, a large portion of the killing power within his body followed a specific trajectory and surged toward a person in the distance. This portion of the killing power was even more than the killing power he had obtained himself. In other words, the more he killed and the stronger he became, the person in the distance would become much stronger than him.
However, it was clear that he still didn’t know anything about this at this moment. Chen Heng raised his head in surprise in the distance.
“He was so diligent.” Sitting on the sofa, he felt the endless killing power surging in his body and could not help but feel a little surprised. He did not expect Wang Zhong to be so diligent.
Ever since he planted the seed of killing into Wang Zhong’s body, besides the initial moment when Wang Zhong restrained himself, he had been engaging in killing the rest of the time. That frequency and density surprised Chen Heng, and he felt ashamed.
Now, Chen Heng increasingly felt that planting the slaughter divinity into Wang Zhong’s body back then was the right choice. He would have had enough things to do daily if it were him. How would he find spare time to search for targets to kill?
The only person who could do this was Wang Zhong, born in a large clan and willing to become stronger. However, judging from the current speed, his rationality would quickly fade.
After all, even though the killing power was mighty, as the killing power continued to fuse into one’s body, it would slowly interfere with one’s rationality and cause it to change slowly.
However, Chen Heng decided to stop thinking about it, as his worries might not be something that Wang Zhong could not solve. After all, this world was big, and there were a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
If Wang Zhong could think of a way to alleviate this problem, it would not be surprising. As long as he could purify the impurities that gradually appeared in his spiritual power and expel them, it would not be difficult for him to maintain his consciousness. Of course, Chen Heng was not optimistic about this.
Theoretically speaking, as long as Wang Zhong could purify the impurities that appeared in his body, there would not be any problems. However, in reality, based on the extent of Wang Zhong’s current performance, it would still be challenging even if he had the means to purify the impurities.
After all, Wang Zhong’s speed of obtaining the killing power was too fast that even Chen Heng himself might not be able to withstand it if not for his exceptionally high essence coupled with meditation and the assistance of the divine power.
Chen Heng felt that the possibility of Wang Zhong being able to withstand it was not too great. Of course, this also had nothing to do with Chen Heng.
Although he planted the slaughter divinity, how Wang Zhong became, in the end, was Wang Zhong’s own choice and had nothing to do with him.
After meditating silently, Chen Heng walked out. It was about time for him to find a place to advance steadily.
That’s right. After Wang Zhong’s constant efforts and a few days of training, the last obstacle to Chen Heng’s advancement to the fourth rank had disappeared. Now, it was about time for him to advance to the fourth rank, based on the methods in this world.
Under normal circumstances, if Chen Heng wanted to advance to the fourth rank, he would first obtain the corresponding technique, which was a threshold for ordinary people.
After all, the technique to advance to the fourth rank was a rare inheritance in this world. It would be challenging to obtain if one did not have a large force to rely on. If Chen Heng were in his actual situation, he would probably depend on the Black Dream Group.
However, it was not so troublesome now. At the very least, the nameless tempering technique he obtained from the stone tablet contained the technique to advance to the fourth rank. And it was not just the fourth rank, but there were even techniques to advance after the fourth rank.
From Chen Heng’s point of view, even though this nameless tempering method was incomplete, its contents were undoubtedly rich.
Even if he had applied through the Black Dream Group, the inheritance he obtained wouldn’t be better than this.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and he continued walking forward.. Soon, he arrived at a basement.
