The source of essence is a piece of meat cut from a special strange body. Swallowing it can effectively assist the strange person to speed up his practice.
However, this thing is quite rare. In the Zhiguai Division, only at the commander level, there is a monthly supply of bloodline source essence.
Of course, the quantity is not large, only four taels.
In addition to obtaining source matter through the Zhiguisi, it occasionally leaks out on the black market in Liangshan County, but most of it is bought instantly by several major forces.
And because of its scarcity, its price is also extremely high, and ordinary people cannot afford it. Lu Chen thought about Liang Fugui's gift. Now it seems that the essence is the most precious gift.
Thinking of this, the data on the panel changed.

After killing the strange Hu Zhongshan, he obtained 3 points of Source Seed, which now directly reached 8 points... Lu Chen's breathing was a little heavy, and the secret passage was worthy of the Source Seed of the Bloodline Realm.
"There are not many source seeds brought by weirdness of the same level. If you use high-level sources, such as bloodline realm and above, the source seeds that can be extracted will probably be beyond imagination."
Lu Chen's eyes flickered, thinking about how to obtain high-quality source essence.
But what is more important at the moment is to quickly improve his strength and prepare for Hu Yue who may come. Thinking of this, he feels a little pressure and sets his sights on the powerful Tiger Demon Fist.
He said silently in his mind, "Add more."

[Source species: 6 points]
Huh... Lu Chen exhaled turbid air, and the hot air waves distorted the air. He sat cross-legged in the darkness, like a giant beast dormant in the abyss.
Lu Chen's eyes were sharp and he murmured: "It's not enough, far from enough. Keep giving me more!"
The words on the panel twist and change, dismantled into strokes and then reorganized, turning into a brand new martial arts.

[Martial Arts: Mysterious Fire Refining Evil Technique (0/11) Concentration Technique (4/7)]
[Source species: 5 points]
The dantian is like a furnace, with streams of qi and blood melting in it, gradually evolving into a pill, and the red gold pill burns with blazing flames.
According to the introduction of the Xuan Fire Evil Refining Technique, this pill is called "Xuan Dan", which compresses the energy and blood to the extreme, forming a concrete manifestation of qualitative change.
Lu Chen opened his palms, and flame inscriptions could be seen on the skin. With a bang, red gold flames condensed in his palms, changing with the shape of his thoughts.
Sometimes it turns into a sharp dagger, sometimes it turns into a fire crow...
"After completing the Mysterious Fire Refining Art, you can control all the flames within ten meters of your body, and can gather and spread them at will according to your own thoughts, and change their forms..."
Lu Chen crushed the flames, his right arm turned as black as ink, and an extremely ferocious aura erupted, like a demon in the abyss opening its eyes.
This is the core of the Xuanhuo Evil Refining Technique, the evil spirit.
The main practice of this technique is the most ferocious evil spirit in the world. The method of controlling fire is just incidental, and the core lies in the use of evil spirit.
He can combine evil spirit with flames to create an effect like fire evil. There is no need to touch with his fists. As long as he is within the range of the flames, he will suffer similar attacks.
Moreover, when his whole body is filled with evil energy, his strength, speed, and energy and blood will explode dramatically, just like taking a stimulant, which will push his realm to a new height in a short period of time.
"However, if you want to reach Hu Yue's level, I'm afraid it's still a little short of that." Lu Chen thought for a moment and used the source seed to upgrade the Mysterious Fire Evil Refining Technique to the first level.
Then, he turned his attention to the Concentration Technique.
This martial art that specializes in mental power can be called a powerful weapon. Whether it is Gu Dao Ren or Hu Zhongshan, as long as it is pierced by the spirit, it will definitely cause temporary dizziness.
In a life-and-death fight, even uneven breathing can put one's life in danger.
Lu Chen decided to use the remaining 4 points of source seeds to maximize his concentration skills and deduce more powerful techniques.
The remaining 4 points of source seeds fell on the Concentration Technique. In an instant, Lu Chen's eyes became extremely clear, and his mental power surged like a tide.
In the quiet little courtyard, teacups, bowls, tables, stones... were floating silently in the air. Lu Chen's hair was flying, and his eyes were filled with ejaculation.

[Source species: 0 points]
Invisible spiritual power washed through the small courtyard like a tide. It took a long time before Lu Chen got used to the surging power and waved his right hand forward.
Things floating in the void fell silently, and flying hair fell quietly.
The next moment, his sword finger was swung forward, and a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and a cold light exploded instantly, shattering a falling leaf ten meters away.
He raised his finger slightly, and a cold light, like a swimming fish, stopped silently in front of him. It was Ning Xiaochan's dagger.
"This is almost the same as a flying sword. If you use such a move unexpectedly when facing an enemy, your brain will explode!" Lu Chen was a little excited.
The fairy sword culture in his previous life made him yearn for this kind of ability to control objects.
Moreover, mental power has more attack methods, which are no longer limited to simple mental piercing, such as mental power suppression, mental control...
After deducing two brand new techniques, Lu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief, "At least, I should be able to protect myself when facing Hu Yue."
He doesn't think that with these two new martial arts, he can kill Hu Yue, who is at the fourth level of the bloodline realm. "If you want to kill Hu Yue, this level of cultivation may not be enough. Source seed, source seed..."
Looking at the empty panel, Lu Chen couldn't help but have a headache. The 8 points of Source Seed he just earned were all spent like this.
…
In the early morning, as usual, he bought steamed buns and sweet soy milk at Songji. Lu Shen walked through the revived streets and headed towards Zhiguisi.
According to Commander Cheng's plan, a special team will be formed today to investigate Hu Yue's whereabouts, and Lu Chen will be solely responsible for this team.
The door under the quaint roof was already open. Lu Shen stepped over the threshold and entered the inner courtyard. At this time, there were already many team members, all doing simple activities.
When they saw Lu Chen come in, the team members smiled one after another, and voices sounded one after another.
"Road team, good morning."
"Hello, road team."
"The road team is early."
…
As he entered the lobby, greetings continued one after another. Lu Chen responded with a smile and came to his seat.
The pens, inks, paper, and inkstones on the black wooden desk were in order, and the tabletop was wiped spotless. There was a teacup placed just where the right hand was placed.
On the upper left side of the desk, there is a flat wooden sign with the four characters "Captain Lu Shen" written in flying colors on it.
A female team member with a beautiful face and cute eyes came over with hot water, picked up the teacup, and asked: "Team Road, this is the latest green tea, Biyu Chun."
"Thank you. What's your name?" Lu Chen took the tea cup with both hands and said to himself that this treatment was completely different. No female team member had made tea before.
The female team member smiled lightly, a dimple appeared at the corner of her mouth, "My name is Oriole. I just joined the Zhigui Division this year. Because of my lack of experience, I spend most of my time doing odd jobs."
Oriole's cheeks were flushed. According to the gossip in the team, Captain Lu will be the new deputy commander, which made her a little nervous.
"Okay, thank you." Lu Chen nodded in thanks.
Not long after Oriole left, a familiar voice sounded in his ears, "We haven't seen each other for a few days, and we even drank tea. This treatment is not ordinary."
Lu Chen looked up and saw Ning Xiaochan standing in the sunshine, her hair blowing gently in the wind.
She was still wearing a slim-fitting red fish suit, with a black knife on her waist, but the girl's figure was curvy, and she looked quite heroic standing in the sunshine.
Her eyebrows were long and slender, her eyes were smiling, and her skin was frosty and snowy. Just standing there with a smile attracted a lot of attention.
Lu Chen took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The injury healed so quickly?"
"You remember that I'm still injured, and you didn't say you came to visit my teammate." Ning Xiaochan joked and walked into the lobby, "I've heard about Hu Yue."
Speaking of this matter, Lu Chen rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Yeah, it's a bit troublesome."
"I'm here to help you." Ning Xiaochan blinked, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
"You?" Lu Chen looked at her and frowned: "If I remember correctly, your strength is not even at the third level of blood accumulation."
She raised the corner of her mouth slightly, took out a document and put it on the table. Lu Chen picked it up and looked at it. It turned out to be an order from the commander-in-chief.
Asked Ning Xiaochan to help him deal with Hu Yue's matter.
Lu Chen was puzzled and asked, "Why do you want to get involved? Your strength is far from enough."
"Vice Commander Hu took something from me. I have to ask him to get it back." Ning Xiaochan looked outside the courtyard, her eyes turning cold.
Seeing how persistent she was, Lu Chen didn't hesitate to ask, "That's okay, but I might not be able to take care of you. Please pay attention to your own safety."
After waiting for an hour, the special team targeting Hu Yue assembled in the courtyard.
Including Lu Chen and Ning Xiaochan, the team has a total of thirteen people, all drawn from various teams, mainly prefecture-level players.
The average strength of the entire team is probably at the sixth level of the Blood Condensation Realm, and this is already the majority of the elites that the Zhiguai Division can mobilize.
The team members, wearing uniform red fish uniforms and carrying black knives at their waists, stood solemnly among the team members.
Lu Chen looked at the team members, "Everyone should know the goal this time. Next, we will work in groups of two to focus on screening Hu Yue's relationship network.
"All relevant information must be results within one day. Hu Yue's recovery time is about seven days, so time is extremely tight. Sorry to trouble you."
After giving specific tasks, the team members took action with extremely high efficiency.
However, in the next two days, there was no useful information at all. Hu Yue was like a cow in the sea, unable to get any information about him.
Whether it was former acquaintances or places he frequented, although a lot of evidence of his guilt was uncovered, no trace was found.
It's like evaporating from the world.
This is even if there are players in the team who are extremely good at tracking.
Lu Chen even suspected that he did not return to Liangshan County, but fled to other places.
Until the third day, the bodies of two team members appeared in the courtyard of Zhiguisi. One of them was the Oriole who poured tea for Lu Shen...
