Almighty King Of Medicine Chapter 378

Seeing that Lu Chen had withdrawn his hand, Ma ZhengRan looked at Ma Qun with a burning gaze.

It was clear that he wanted to see what would happen to Ma Buqun after Lu Chen stopped.

With Ma Buqun's current situation, he did not need Lu Chen to continue using the power of merit to stabilize him for the time being.

As long as the Merit Bead in his body gradually released its power, although his cultivation would still slowly decline, his speed would be relatively slow and it was still acceptable.

Lu Chen naturally understood Ma Zhengliang's true intentions.

This was to prevent his own strength from colliding with the power that he was probing.

Firstly, it would affect his judgement. Later on, when the two powers overlaid each other, once there was a conflict, it would definitely cause a second damage to Ma Buqun's body.

Seeing that Lu Chen had withdrawn his hand, Ma ZhengRan even waited for a few seconds on purpose before he finally reached out and pressed between Ma Buqun's eyebrows.

Lu Chen watched his every move nervously, not even blinking his eyes. At the same time, he was secretly storing his strength. If he discovered any flaws, he was prepared to take action at any time.

Ma ZhengRan sat up straight and looked extremely solemn.

Following that, Lu Chen saw a faint black qi being emitted from Ma ZhengRan's palm. It was actually very similar to the black qi formed by the toad Gu within Ma Zhengliang's group.

As for the black qi, it swirled and gathered between his palm and Ma Qun's body. After a while, it started to slowly seep into his body …

As the wisp of black Qi flowed into Ma Qun's body, Ma Zhengran suddenly frowned. A cold light flashed in his eyes, followed by a look of shock.

Ma Zhengliang clearly felt that Ma Buqun's limbs and bones had all been shattered, and his meridians were broken inch by inch.

Just now, he had only used his pulse to determine that Ma Buqun was seriously injured, his vitality was severely damaged, and his breath was weak.

But from the looks of it, this was no different from a corpse.

The only difference was that there was a strange power that maintained Ma Buqun's vitality so that he would not lose it.

Very quickly, Ma ZhengRan made a new discovery.

Just this body alone was fine, but most importantly, Ma Buqun's primordial spirit was also severely damaged.

The soul that should have dissipated was also engulfed by an invisible force. It neither dissipated further, nor was it swallowed by the dung beetle Gu worm!

For the same reason, since both of them had suffered such heavy injuries, their cultivation bases had also been restrained.

This completely overturned Ma ZhengRan's understanding of power.

"Hiss!"

After understanding the true situation of Ma Buqun, Ma ZhengRan couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Although Ma ZhengRan had long since been mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but to seriously glance at Lu Chen, who was beside her.

His eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief.

"Mister, if it weren't for the fact that he suffered such a fatal blow, there would have been no chance for him to survive."

"But right now, he is still alive. His soul is quite stable and his cultivation has been confined. This is incredible and unimaginable!"

Lu Chen was also astonished.

As expected of the Ma Clan's Patriarch, just this ability of discernment wasn't something an ordinary person could possess.

Lu Chen respectfully cupped his fists towards Ma ZhengRan and said, "Senior Ma doesn't know that the reason why Senior Ma Buqun became like this is because he stood up and saved me in the nick of time!"

"Lu Chen is not talented, so he naturally knows how to repay favors. That's why he did not hesitate to use a secret technique and temporarily confined the injuries and strength on his body, trying to buy as much time as possible."

Lu Chen's words were half true and half false. After all, there were many things that could not be said openly.

When Ma ZhengRan heard what he said, he didn't question it too much.

The truth was that this situation had already exceeded his knowledge. Even if he had doubts in his heart, he could not ask any more.

Ma ZhengRan nodded and hurriedly looked over with rapt attention.

After further investigation, Ma ZhengRan was surprised to discover that not only was the toad Gu of the dung beetles in Ma Wu's group very stable, but judging from its aura, it had actually stepped into the upper tier Profound Rank.

This was simply unbelievable...

Ma ZhengRan sighed again.

Who would have thought that Ma Buqun would really do this!

One had to know that even in the earlier years, there were very few people in the Ma Family who had grown dung beetles to this extent.

Needless to say, in the apocalyptic era where spiritual energy was thin.

It was a pity that Ma Qun had become like this. Otherwise, with Ma Jia's current cultivation, he would have been able to take off the t.i.tle of a second-rate aristocratic family and charge toward a first-rate aristocratic family.

If he could grasp the methods to let the Gu worm advance quickly, he could even look forward to the position of the nine families of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

While he was lamenting, a puzzled expression flashed across Ma Zheng's mind like a bolt of lightning.

He had a faint feeling that the reason the beetle Gu within the Ma Clan had been able to grow so fast was very likely because of Lu Chen.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain how the mantis Gu would appear so docile under such circ.u.mstances.

In addition, he thought of another important matter.

With Ma Qun's current strength, what kind of situation would he have to suffer such a terrifying injury just because of this young man in front of him?!

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

As the current Patriarch of the Ma Clan, Ma Zheng Ran asked himself how much he had experienced in this lifetime.

However, this situation was unheard-of. Even if he had seen it, he still couldn't understand what was the reasoning behind it.

During the Ma Family's heyday, he was also an existence that could not be ignored in the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

However, as the spiritual energy became thinner, it became increasingly difficult to raise the life Gu.

Like many other aristocratic families in the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the recent generations were getting more and more out of hand.

But the more it was like this, the more the Ma family desired to find a new way to break the deadlock.

Otherwise, they would all become sinners and wouldn't be able to see their ancestors after death.

When the Possession skill was mentioned, although he previously thought that it would be difficult for Lu Chen to achieve it, now Ma Zhengliang's heart was burning with pa.s.sion.

The path of a voodoo Gu, especially the Gu raising technique, consumed a lot of cultivation resources.

Relatively speaking, these few generations of the Ma family were constantly searching for the way to break through. They did a large amount of experiments and used up a lot of resources.

If they were able to protect Ma Buqun's cultivation, to the Ma Clan, no matter what price they had to pay, they wouldn't hesitate.

While Ma ZhengRan was lost in thought over who he wanted to possess, someone called out to him softly from the side.

Soon after, Ma ZhengRan came back to his senses and no longer tried to deduce the mystery behind it. Instead, his gaze landed on Lu Chen.

"Just what kind of person could have injured our nephew to such an extent …" he asked in a low voice.

Although he was a bit anxious, he could not be impatient anymore.

The main thing was still to see how confident Lu Chen was and how determined he was.

Therefore, he decided to figure out what kind of experts had injured Ma Buqun.

One had to know that Ma Buqun had used the high-grade Profound Rank dung beetle to display a strength that was at least at the Earth Stage.

In the Celestial Sect of Wonders, unless a low-rank Earth Realm expert were to take action, it would be impossible to injure Ma Buqun to such an extent.
