Being penetrated through the chest by Shiqian was clearly not an easy injury to recover from.
Even with Lu Zixun’s undying trait, after taking the Repair Liquid, his recovery was still abnormally slow.
At this moment, Lu Zixun was in the most pain.
The wound couldn’t heal quickly because there was a mysterious spiritual energy on Shiqian’s claw that greatly reduced the speed of Lu Zixun’s bodily recovery.
Unexpectedly facing a severe injury debuff, Lu Zixun, feeling beyond despair, endured the pain and began to regenerate his spiritual energy.
If Shiqian made a move to strike again, things would get really messy.
At that moment, hearing noises outside the house, Lu Zixun suddenly opened his eyes.
The Night Evil Sword floated beside him, ready to strike at any moment.
Hearing this, Lu Zixun sighed in relief, Tang Tianyu and the others had finally found him.
He said weakly, any movement, including talking, caused tearing pain throughout his body.
Shining a tactical flashlight, they entered the dim room, and a pungent smell of blood hit their faces.
Tang Tianyu’s eyebrows furrowed as he strode forward.
Upon finding Lu Zixun deep inside the room and seeing the wounds on his body, Tang Tianyu inhaled sharply.
Now, Lu Zixun looked frightfully dreadful, his hair matted in clumps with dark, coagulated blood.
There were also several scratch marks on his head.
The most horrifying was the wound that penetrated from his back to his abdomen, where one could vaguely see his beating heart.
It could be said that the fact Lu Zixun could still barely speak was due to his strong willpower.
Feeling somewhat clueless at first, Tang Tianyu quickly asked Chen Yue to fetch a stretcher from the truck while he took out the Repair Liquid, intending to pour it on Lu Zixun’s wounds.
"No need to pour it, give me two Spiritual Power Crystals."
Feeling his brain becoming foggy, Lu Zixun quickly spoke.
He had to restore his spiritual energy before passing out and use the Spiritual Fire to burn off the evil energy near the wound, or else it would be over if he fainted.
After taking out the Spiritual Power Crystals, Tang Tianyu placed them into his mouth, and Lu Zixun fiercely bit them to pieces.
The spiritual energy entered his spiritual energy acupoints, and Spiritual Fire appeared on the wound, starting to burn.
The reason the wound couldn’t heal, besides the evil energy permeating around it, was also the blood in Shiqian’s claws, which was trying to infect Lu Zixun.
Having dealt with these issues, the wound began to heal at a visibly fast rate.
Lu Zixun collapsed on the ground, entering a state where he couldn’t move.
He closed his eyes and softly said, "Quickly go to Zone 7... also notify Sha Fei’s commanders in each area, there is a Human Ghost called Shiqian, extremely dangerous."
After giving these instructions, Lu Zixun passed out.
Afraid of hurting Lu Zixun with his rough handling, Tang Tianyu didn’t dare to lift him but instead asked Bing Xue Ning and Ran You to come.
The being capable of gravely injuring Lu Zixun was definitely not something they could handle.
Tang Tianyu immediately contacted Xiong Kang to relay what Lu Zixun had said.
When Lu Zixun woke up later, he opened his eyes to find himself lying in a cozy room.
Turning his head, he could see Long Ya cultivating spiritual energy, and he himself... had been wrapped up like a mummy cat.
Lu Zixun, feeling beyond despair, felt this scene was eerily familiar.
He couldn’t casually remove his bandages this time; he had to wait patiently for his recovery.
At this moment, Long Ya stopped cultivating, opened her eyes, and came to the bedside, softly calling out, "Uncle Xun, long time no see."
Lu Zixun thought to himself, it seemed there was no issue with Long Ya addressing him that way.
What made Lu Zixun sigh was that when he first met Long Ya, she was just a little girl.
Now, Long Ya had attained S-level strength, and her mentality had also matured significantly.
Lu Zixun nodded in greeting and asked, "Am I in Zone 7 now?"
Long Ya nodded, smiled, and said, "Uncle Xun, you gave me quite a scare when you arrived, but now I’m really glad to see you awake."
Lu Zixun sighed silently, he was awake, but he was the only one who knew the extent of his injuries.
His Undying superpower seemed to be suppressed.
Normally, his injuries would heal within an hour, but now, it would take a whole day.
Watching Long Ya go to call Xiong Kang, Lu Zixun opened the system and looked at his personal template.
The previously lit Undying was now dimmed.
"Undying Nirvana, defended the host against a lethal attack once, currently in recovery state, will recover in two days."
Indeed, there was a problem with Undying, but this defense against a lethal attack...
Lu Zixun thought for a moment, it must have been when Shiqian’s blood entered his body.
The wound was too close to his heart, and at that moment, Lu Zixun had no time to deal with the blood, thankfully there was Undying.
Lying there for a day, Lu Zixun thought to himself that it was quite comfortable, except for the bandages wrapped around him feeling a bit hot.
"It seems like an old friend has returned."
Before Xiong Kang even entered the room, hearing that annoyingly cheap voice, Lu Zixun knew Xiong Kang had arrived.
At this moment, Xiong Kang, with an aura close to J-level, entered the room,
and sat beside Lu Zixun: "You little rascal, your luck is really terrible."
Giving Xiong Kang an annoyed glance, Lu Zixun said, "You think I wanted this? I thought it was just a small shrimp, but dammit, it turned out to be a big boss. Good thing it was me who encountered it; you would have been dead for sure."
He handed the video chip that recorded the battle with Shiqian to Xiong Kang.
Letting him watch it first, Lu Zixun said, "Such a thing was actually created by Zhenfei and sent over to Sha Fei, you guys surprisingly didn’t even know about it, I’m speechless."
Dragging the progress bar to where Shiqian appeared, Xiong Kang frowned, "It’s really Shiqian, but something feels off."
"Do you know this person?"
Hearing this, Lu Zixun raised an eyebrow, his gaze falling on Xiong Kang.
"I know him, when Tang Tianyu mentioned him before, I thought he was just someone with the same name, but now I see..."
Pausing for a moment, Xiong Kang’s emotions were complex, "It really is him, he used to be the Commander of Zone 9, and went missing during a mission."
Lu Zixun, sensing the complexity of the story, was not too interested in diving deeper and continued, "Human Ghosts are much more formidable than the Insect Clan. His blood can infect humans and turn them into Human Ghosts, their combat abilities are off the charts, and they have the characteristic of being undying."
"I will report this matter, but first, we need to confirm where Shiqian has run off to."
Narrowing his eyes, Xiong Kang asked seriously.
One could imagine how powerful Shiqian was if even Xiong Kang couldn’t damage Lu Zixun as heavily.
