High Martial World: I Gain Passive Skills Daily Chapter 107 - 97: No Empty Boasts

In the illusion a few monts ago.

"Swoosh—"

Chen Kuang sprinted through the rain at an incredible speed, his expression calm but his appearance extrely ragged, his entire right arm gone. Blood shattered countless raindrops as it splattered around him, then was completely obliterated by the gale.

The one chasing him from behind was none other than Di Wu, who in reality had already been slain by Shen Xingzhu’s sword.

In the illusion, Di Wu was at the peak of his power, his eyes like lightning, shooting forward like an arrow released from a bow, rapidly closing in on Chen Kuang.

Wherever he passed, buildings shattered like rain, collapsing with a roar, even causing the ground to cave in.

In the blink of an eye, he leapt forward, landing in front of Chen Kuang, turning around to strike with a palm.

"Boom!"

The force exploded, fierce as a lion, vaguely accompanied by a soul-stirring lion’s roar.

This palm was fierce and domineering, directly hitting Chen Kuang’s shoulder—this was already him dodging to the best of his ability by relying on his "premonition".

"Bang! Crack!"

The force unreservedly poured into his muscles, bones, and internal organs, destroying everything in its path.

Chen Kuang felt his right side had been instantly pulverized.

This wasn’t a taphor, but a fact.

Agonizing pain swept through his nerves, before he could react, he was already sent flying.

Originally, he wanted to use the opponent’s strike force to retreat and escape.

But Di Wu anticipated this, releasing all his montum, instantly suppressing the Spiritual Qi of the area, pressing down on Chen Kuang, causing him to carve a glaring blood trail on the ground as he flew out.

Chen Kuang crashed into a pillar, rolled down, looking at the blood mixed with fragnts of his internal organs flowing from his side, he sighed.

With only Di Wu as the opponent, the effect of "undamaged by divine intervention" wasn’t that effective.

This ti seed another failure.

Moreover, it wasn’t him willingly failing, but due to an accident, his whereabouts were exposed suddenly, discovered by Di Wu, directly hunted to this point.

Even with so many passive skills, this ti was truly unlucky, combined with Di Wu having only used two moves yet not triggering "miraculous reversal" once.

He realized how formidable Di Wu was when exerting full strength.

This person was incredibly strong, despite his reputation being insignificant.

Chen Kuang also understood why Lin Er You chose to use the thod of "framing" Zhou Yanwei to help him escape.

Di Wu’s Wind and Rain Pavilion, though not conspicuous, had alarmingly strong control over Jishao County, even the Earth Official knew a thing or two.

Di Wu himself wasn’t a brute as his na implied, but a person with extrely ticulous thoughts.

If not using such thods to confuse, mislead, and divert Di Wu’s attention, he would soon notice sothing amiss.

For instance, this ti, Chen Kuang just barely left the Tower Ship ahead, only to be traced right after.

Not long ago.

He left the Tower Ship ahead with Shen inan, bypassing the node where the Little Princess beca the Demon Sword’s host, returned to the Chen Mansion with several others.

Thus, Di Wu hadn’t died but, after an unexpected blunder, successfully took over the Civilization Official.

anwhile, since the world line had changed, Chen Kuang, unaware of the "Demon Sword", had no reason to visit Qi Sibai, nor did he actively contact the "Earth Official".

However, this ti, the Earth Official actively looked for him.

Therefore, Chen An learned of his identity earlier, was greatly shocked, and earnestly promised to safeguard this "secret", aiding them to escape.

Unexpectedly, it was this line with the Earth Official that exposed Chen Kuang, attracting Di Wu’s thunderous pursuit.

Just as they planned to leave using the waterway at South Pier with the Chen Family’s help during the rainy night, Di Wu descended from the sky, wreaking havoc.

Chen Kuang touched his wound, realizing he might not survive, contemplating whether to endure until past midnight to gain a new passive skill...

Yet this ti was too dreadful, he considered sparing himself the misery, decisively ending himself.

As Chen Kuang thought about this, he suddenly sensed a sowhat familiar person rapidly approaching.

Subsequently, a pair of hands lifted him under his arms and carried him on their back.

"Chen An?"

Surprisingly, Chen An, who had simply been there to send them off and had already returned, was back again!

Without speaking, Chen An braved the heavy rain, racing at his fastest speed toward the Earth Official’s hideout.

But indeed, he knew such actions were practically aningless.

The opponent’s strength was beyond his imagination, even finding the Earth Official might be futile.

Moreover, Chen Kuang’s life hung by a thread, possibly unable to survive until rescue arrives.

Yet he returned, rather than running away.

Chen Kuang’s right hand, resting on Chen An’s shoulder, regained a bit of strength; he tapped Chen An’s shoulder, unexpectedly joked:

"What? Do you want to repay for saving your life all those years ago?"

Chen An still did not speak but gritted his teeth and accelerated again.

The footprints left by the young man beca clearer, mixing with dark red blood, winding through the rain.

Chen Kuang continued, "Put down, escape yourself, the Chen Family still needs a pillar, to hold up that piece of sky, you’re more suitable than ."

He felt the vague repulsion and barrier within himself dissolve considerably.

At the mont Chen An turned back to save him.

The child once led away by the Naless Musician returned ho again.

Chen An paused, gritting his teeth, said: "You are also a mber of the Chen Family; it’s only right I save you! Stay put, watch take you ho!"

He had exerted his Spiritual Qi to the utmost, blood vessels in his legs burst, oozing blood.

Each step left a deep scarlet footprint.

But he dared not stop because stopping would an he could never move again!

Chen Kuang was astounded, letting out a silent laugh: "So you indeed weren’t boasting."

What boast have I uttered?

Chen An was pondering this when suddenly he felt a pain in his chest.

He paused, lowered his head, his chest was pierced by a sword.

Not far away, Di Wu stood steadfastly, his aura towering like a mountain, looking coldly at the two falling.

This sword was rely picked up casually and thrown.

To him, Chen An’s desperate flight was but a distance he could traverse in a blink.

Chen Kuang opened his eyes again, surprised to see a new passive appear.

Perhaps due to Di Wu contemplating the ant-like struggle, Chen An’s actions won him a little extra ti.

Before he died, the ti had already passed midnight.

The status refreshed, bringing a passive nad [Break to Rebuild].

...

The blackened layer on Chen Kuang scattered, turning to countless specks flying away.

The winds dispersed.

The steam above faded like vapor into the sky.

Chen Kuang was draped in white, graceful and poised, his wide-robe sleeves fluttering, newly reborn skin almost glimring with radiance.

Nobody could tell that this young man had been nearly unrecognizable just monts ago.

The aura around Chen Kuang gradually solidified and stabilized, causing Shen inan to be taken aback, doubting her senses.

But quickly, she realized she wasn’t mistaken.

At this mont, Chen Kuang had already achieved Innate Harmony!
