Reincarnation of the Hero
Ch.225 - Different Places
Gu Chen could no longer move his body in this condition, what an unlucky fate for him.
A moment later, Han Shizu landed beside Gu Chen.
"I told you, even though you have cultivation above me, you who only have one shard will not be able to fight against me who has already fused 3 Lightning Soul shards!" Han Shizu said in a flat voice "Now it's time to pick up your Lightning Soul!"
Han Shizu stuck his right palm on Gu Chen's back, then drained the Lightning Soul energy to lure Gu Chen's Lightning Soul out.
"Bagcock...!!"
Gu Chen cried out in pain because his Lightning Soul was forcibly taken away, he did not want that to happen so he put up a resistance, making him feel the pain.
"Stop fighting so you don't feel more pain!" Han Shizu kept trying to lure Gu Chen's Lightning Soul using his Lightning Soul.
A while later, Gu Chen's body was enveloped in ferocious lightning, yet it did not injure Han Shizu at all.
Gu Chen instead shouted increasingly louder as every cell of his body felt crushed.
Han Shizu also pulled out Gu Chen's Lightning Soul.
The process lasted for 1 hour, until finally Gu Chen's Lightning Soul was successfully ejected by Han Shizu.
Han Shizu took out a jade slip, then made the Lightning Soul sealed into the jade.
Before entering the small dimension, Han Shizu was given that jade by Xiang Yang
Han Shizu wanted to move away, but she remembered one thing and then looked towards the lifeless Gu Chen.
Han Shizu took Gu Chen's dimensional ring, then she darted away, looking for a safe place for him to be able to fuse the Lightning Soul.

After his meeting with Xiang Jun, the two began to get along with each other.
Xiang Jun became no longer awkward when talking to Yong Li, and vice versa.
They encountered Spirit Beasts more often than any other cultivator.
During the journey, they gained many valuable resources. But it was only precious to Xiang Jun, whereas Yong Li considered it ordinary.
Obviously their differences in background make their perspectives different as well.
Passing through the many obstacles just the two of them with Yong Li, made a foreign feeling grow in the young man's heart. He wanted to have the girl, but Xiang Jun was also aware of her position, making him unable to expect too much.
Currently Xiang Jun and Yong Li darted from one tree to another. They did not fly because it consumed a lot of Qi.
In a foreign place like this, they had to save even more Qi energy. In addition they can better see around by moving lower.
Suddenly Xiang Jun stopped on a tree branch. Yong Li reflexively stopped as well.
"What's Xiang Jun?" Yong Li turned his head towards Xiang Jun who looked down with a complicated expression.
A moment later Xiang Jun raised his head then turned towards Yong Li with an expression full of constancy.
"Is something wrong?" Yong Li was confused by Xiang Jun's behavior which he thought was a bit strange.
"Yong Li, I like you!"
Instantly the atmosphere became silent, Yong Li fell silent, still processing Xiang Jun's words in his brain.
Second first.
"Oh." Yong Li turned his eyes forward.
Second second second second
"Ah." He should have realized something.
"DOLL?!" Yong Li was instantly shocked after the third second.
It was truly unexpected that the girl would get a sudden statement like this from Xiang Jun.
"Is..is that a strange thing?" Xiang Jun himself did not really understand how to proceed.
"It's not just..." Yong Li's face turned red "Ahhh, never mind!"
Yong Li darted away leaving Xiang Jun, he could not describe what his current feelings were like.
"Yong Li's..." Xiang Jun was not quick to chase Yong Li "Am I rejected?"

Somewhere else.
Xiang Ba and Ling Shi roamed the cave together.
They had already started to get quite familiar with each other because during these few days, the two of them were shoulder to shoulder in the face of problems amidst their circumstances that could not use Qi energy.
Xiang Ba for this one and a half years lived in a forest filled with Spirit Beasts. Every day he could not relax his vigilance due to the dangers lurking everywhere.
That made Xiang Ba's instincts forged until now he had the instincts of a savage beast.
His sense of smell and hearing also became extremely sharp, as well as physical strength that exceeded cultivators who were at the same level as him.
Even so Xiang Ba was still quite troubled in these few days of being inside the cave which made him unable to use his Qi energy, as it was only the first time he had faced this situation.
But Xiang Ba did not complain at all as he considered this to be an exercise for him.
As for Ling Shi, the woman often complained of not being able to use Qi energy. Honestly speaking he became a burden to Xiang Ba, although he was still quite useful in some certain situations.
At least even though Ling Shi complained often, he still had some gratitude.
Actually Ling Shi felt bad for Xiang Ba who continued to protect him selflessly, but somehow he even so often complained to cover up his bad taste.
One thing that made them both arrogant was the absence of resources in this place.
There were absolutely no herbs or anything like that, there were only Spirit Beasts that despite not having any cultivation, yet possessed powerful body strength.
Eventually, they found a dead end.
"Are we really going to stay locked up in this cave? Is there no way out?!" Ling Shi clenched his hands in anger.
For days they searched the cave but what they got was a dead end.
Xiang Ba himself frowned, staring intently at the end wall of the cave.
A moment later Xiang Ba walked forward and placed his palm on the wall of the end of the cave.
"What are you doing?" ask Ling Shi.
Xiang Ba did not immediately reply, the young man instead took a punch.
By concentrating the power on his right fist, Xiang Ba struck the wall of the end of the cave in full force.
*Baaammm!!
In one blow, the wall cracked, then collapsed, revealing a small space behind it.
There looks only a round shaped object like a board, has strange carvings on it.
Just as Xiang Ba wanted to grab the thing, it suddenly gave off a bright light making the two of them become wary.
The object kept getting brighter and brighter, making Xiang Ba and Ling Shi close their eyes.
As the light began to dissipate, the two of them opened their eyes, finding themselves in a different place.
