After Wolf died, the Wind Wolf suddenly let out a sad howl. Its whole body uncontrollably flew into the air and gradually became illusory. The light in its eyes faded away.

  Familiars were not creatures of this world. When an apostle died, their bodies would also collapse, and their life essence cores would return to the spirit world, waiting for the next summons. In a sense, they were immortal.

  Therefore, Chen Yue didn't bother to kill it because it was meaningless. The biggest weakness of a familiar was the apostle himself.

  The Wind Wolf was startled, Wolf's arm was cut off and he died. Until now, the familiar began to return. A series of events happened in the blink of an eye. At this time, Omar just managed to react and rushed over halfway.

  There was still the anger of realizing being ambushed in his eyes, but another emotion quickly grew and occupied all his nerves, and that was fear.

  Was an apostle killed so easily?

  Moreover, he was killed by another apostle in the way of a fighter.

  "This is impossible." Omar roared in disbelief. At this moment, he met Chen Yue's icy eyes.

  It was as if he was looking at a dead man.

  His heart trembled. Chen Yue had already slashed over with his sword at a high speed. The sword blade made a shrill whistling sound, and for a moment, he even had the feeling that he didn't dare to resist.

  What a terrifying sword skill it was. Omar felt it was ironic that it appeared on someone who wasn't a fighter.

  He had a realization that even if Wolf came back to life and they fought head-on with Chen Yue, they would probably still lose.

  The battle ended quickly. Under the pincer attack of Chen Yue and the frozen rabbit, Omar only held on for a dozen seconds.

  When Chen Yue pulled back his long sword from Omar, who was half frozen, with a "crack" sound, this ordinary long sword had already broken into several pieces.

  A third-rank fighter could already attach fighting spirit to weapons. Under Omar's desperate counterattack, Chen Yue inevitably collided with his long sword once. Coupled with the freezing effect, it had already pushed the fragile sword to the verge of collapse.

  Although Chen Yue's combat strength was no less than that of a fourth-rank fighter, it stemmed from his physical strength, which was very different from fighting spirit and couldn't be attached to weapons.

  "It seems that I should prepare a better weapon for myself in the future. Otherwise, when fighting against more powerful professionals, I won't be able to bring out my combat strength at all." Chen Yue thought so as he casually picked up the long sword that Omar had thrown aside.

  At this time, he finally had time to check his spoils of war. Poor Omar had nothing valuable except for a long sword, and this only weapon was also taken over by Chen Yue.

  Wolf was different.

  Chen Yue swept his eyes across the ground and locked onto the cloth bag that Wolf had never left his side.

  It was precisely because he noticed Wolf's strange behavior that Chen Yue cut off his right hand at the first time. Moreover, even during the fierce battle, Chen Yue also noticed that when Wolf realized he was being attacked, his first reaction was also to reach for something in the cloth bag.

  However, he wasn't a fighter after all, and his reaction wasn't that fast. Coupled with being intimidated by Chen Yue's momentum from the beginning, it would take at least two or three seconds from being attacked to getting the things. This amount of time was enough for Chen Yue to do many things.

  "What's inside?" Chen Yue picked up the cloth bag with his long sword. He had a vague idea in his mind, but he wasn't sure.

  He tilted it slightly, and with a "clatter" sound, several strange little things rolled out. Chen Yue took a careful look and his eyes immediately narrowed.

  Among them were two metal balls, exactly the same as the protective ball that Mo Ye had forced into his hand.

  "If what Mo Ye said is true and these protective balls can block a fatal attack." Chen Yue fell into deep thought, and his face didn't look good. Perhaps the battle situation would change. At least, Chen Yue's assassination this time might have failed.

  Because he lacked an understanding of these props, let alone had no idea about the functions of other props, he might be turned over by the other side if he was careless.

  Wolf died really aggrievedly. None of these props were used and they fell into the hands of the enemy. No wonder he was so unwilling to die.

  Chen Yue thought thankfully. Anyone would be very depressed when encountering such an aggrieved way of dying.

  He carefully put these props away.

  "Hmm? What kind of energy is this?" At some point, some faint green energy was floating in the air. Chen Yue accidentally inhaled a few mouthfuls and immediately felt extremely comfortable. A surging sense of pleasure swept through his whole body, making him feel as if he were floating on air.

  Especially the cells in his body, each one seemed to be cheering joyfully, greedily devouring this energy.

  After a brief identification, Chen Yue's face immediately changed greatly: "This is the life force."

  For apostles, the life force from the source of life was extremely precious. It was this life force that constantly nourished the body cells, changed their physiques, and extended their lifespans.

  Chen Yue turned his head and looked around. Immediately, he saw that the body of the Wind Wolf had completely become an outline, and some green energy was permeating inside it, which was constantly dissipating at this time. In fact, this life force came from the apostle. The body that the familiar shaped after descending from the spirit world was formed by absorbing the apostle's life force.

  This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

  Although this life force was attractive, Chen Yue's eyes didn't look at it at all at this time.

  In the middle of the life force, there was a dark cyan polyhedral crystal the size of a table tennis ball floating up and down. It had an irregular shape, and there seemed to be mysterious substances flowing inside the dazzling crystal, which was extremely mysterious.

  "Life essence core." Taking a deep breath, Chen Yue calmed down his surging mood.

  This was the first time he had seen the life essence core of another familiar. This was the essence of a high-level creature.

  A look of longing flashed in his eyes, but Chen Yue didn't try to approach it. He knew that the life essence core of a familiar had a terrifying deterrent effect on other creatures.

  The frozen rabbit squatted below as if nothing had happened. Its front paws were slightly raised, staring unblinkingly at the floating life essence core, and a strange look appeared in its big red eyes.

  The life force in the air gradually reached a very high concentration. In this small area, Chen Yue was breathing heavily with pleasure, feeling the life force constantly nourishing every cell in his body, and even a very small part flowed into the source of life.

  However, soon, Chen Yue felt that the cells in his body could no longer absorb this life force. After all, it was foreign energy, and the absorption efficiency was not high. In total, he only absorbed less than 10% of this energy. This was also because his body had been transformed by the "Health Cultivation Formula" and completed the first transformation. If it were other apostles, it would be good if they could absorb 1% of this energy.

  Looking at a large amount of life force that couldn't be absorbed, the feeling was definitely no better than a group of eunuchs visiting a brothel.

  If only I had practiced a few more postures, Chen Yue thought regretfully. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind.

  Both the "Health Cultivation Formula" and the life force had the miraculous effect of changing the physique. So, what would happen if he practiced the "Health Cultivation Formula" surrounded by the life force?

  As if inspired by a sudden whim, Chen Yue assumed the posture of the "Health Cultivation Formula" and began to practice wholeheartedly.

  At this time, a strange thing happened. As his body moved, the life force seemed to be attracted by a black hole and was sucked into his body one after another.

  The surging pleasure continuously washed over Chen Yue's nerves. Immersed in it, Chen Yue was completely unaware of the changes in the outside world and only knew to practice again and again.

  When he felt that he had reached a certain limit and stopped, he found that his body had assumed the 15th posture.

  Practicing surrounded by the life force was equivalent to an epiphany. A look of excitement flashed in Chen Yue's eyes. The only pity was that this kind of energy like the life force was completely uncontrollable and could only be obtained in a very few situations. In the future, even if he wanted to use it for cultivation, he couldn't.

  His limbs moved slightly, and immediately there was a slight popping sound. Chen Yue felt that his whole body seemed to be filled with extremely powerful force, and he could easily lift a huge boulder weighing thousands of catties.

  The life force around was already very thin, but Chen Yue discovered a strange situation. These green energies still flew towards him and merged into his body, as if his body had become an endless black hole.

  Chen Yue's face changed drastically. You should know that his body's capacity had reached its limit, but the life force still kept pouring in. This situation was like inflating a balloon without restraint. Then, the final result...

  And as this energy poured in and was no longer absorbed by the cells, Chen Yue felt that there was more and more power in his body...

  "Damn it." Unable to help shivering, Chen Yue finally understood the terrible disadvantage of this seemingly convenient shortcut.

  Fortunately, the amount this time wasn't much. Otherwise, it might have directly burst him.

  "I can't be burst by energy anyway." A cold and fierce look suddenly flashed in Chen Yue's eyes. Since he couldn't cut off the suction, he would release this force.

  "Goo, goo!" Suddenly, some anxious cries came from the side of the frozen rabbit.

  Chen Yue's heart tightened, and he immediately turned his head to look. He saw that the frozen rabbit was jumping up and down, leaping high on the flat ground, trying to pounce on the life essence core in the air, but an invisible force pushed it away.

  Chen Yue knew that this was the invisible passage for the life essence core to return to the spirit world. It wouldn't be long before the life essence core of the Wind Wolf would return to the spirit world.

  The frozen rabbit also realized this. It angrily spat out balls of freezing air to attack the invisible passage. The invisible passage trembled but didn't break.

  "Wu..." Seeing that the attack was ineffective, a look of loss flashed in the red eyes of the frozen rabbit, and it let out bursts of sad howls. It looked like a child who couldn't get a toy, looking both cute and pitiful.

  A fierce look flashed in Chen Yue's eyes, and for no reason, a violent emotion arose in his heart. He had an impulse to smash the invisible passage desperately.

  "Damn it, since I'm going to release the force anyway, I'll choose this."

  "Bang." There was a deep footprint on the ground. Chen Yue had already rushed out like lightning.

  He accelerated in a short distance to the extreme speed, and then the long sword drew an arc and smashed heavily on the invisible passage with the force of thousands of catties.

  "Boom." Dust flew everywhere. It was as if being hit head-on by a rampaging elephant. The invisible passage let out a pitiful moan but was still very firm and didn't break.

  "Again." Feeling that the sword had released part of the power in his body, Chen Yue ran back a certain distance with a relaxed body.

  Soon, there was another "boom" sound. The poor long sword, which had just changed its owner for less than half an hour, broke again.

  Without a weapon, he would use his fists.

  "Continue."

  ...

  The frozen rabbit looked at Chen Yue, who was desperately attacking the invisible passage and even had his fists stained with blood, with a somewhat bewildered look. The light in its big eyes changed rapidly, and finally, a friendly look appeared. That feeling was as if it had seen its own relatives...

  Finally, under the combined attack of Chen Yue's another fierce impact and the large ice pillar that the frozen rabbit had brewed, the invisible passage seemed to have been run over by dozens of elephants and could no longer withstand the blows. It broke into countless fragments in the expectant eyes of the two.

  And the life essence core that had lost the protection of the invisible passage, in the eyes of a certain rabbit, was like a delicious and tempting cake...

  In Chen Yue's shocked eyes, the frozen rabbit first looked at him with concern, and then leaped high and bit the life essence core of the Wind Wolf.

  "Crunch." A corner of the life essence core was obviously missing. Chen Yue seemed to be able to hear a clear breaking sound...
