Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

The Chen family ancestral home.

Chen Wu held the official seal in his hand, his face ruddy.

A continuous flow of earth energy entered from the soles of his feet and then surged into the official seal in front of him, which emitted a faint light.

Meanwhile, the remaining enlightened martial artists split up and each led a group of martial artists to various parts of Xingde County to search for survivors.

Now, the monstrous ash monsters that filled the streets have turned to ashes under the suction of that towering pillar of blood, and the place has become quiet.

Zhou Chen stood beside Chen Wu and did not go out.

Gao Tian and Yi Lianxing had already protected Yi Yan and hid him in the ancestral home, so there was no need for him to search for him.

The glaring black information on the panel seemed to dance in my mind's eye.

"Absorb earth energy?" Zhou Chen looked at Chen Wu, whose skin was tinged with earthy yellow by the earth energy, wondering whether he should agree to let the panel absorb it.

If agreed, the panel will drain the earth's energy that Chen Wu had stirred up with his life, preventing the creation of a path to the outside world.

Then he's really penny-wise and pound-foolish.

His face was solemn as he stood quietly beside Chen Wu, like a frozen statue.

Gradually, the earth energy surging from the ground became increasingly dense, to the point that even the Xingde official seal could not contain it.

The entire Chen family ancestral home was shrouded in a yellowish-brown mist.

As Chen Wu presided over the ceremony, his face grew increasingly pained, and blood mixed with yellowish-brown specks kept spilling from the corner of his mouth.

At the same time, a golden light suddenly shone brightly.

The light, almost tangible, emanated from the official seal, flowing to the ground like a stream of liquid, naturally extending into countless talismans.

Before long, the yellowish-brown liquid outlined an extremely complex magic circle pattern.

In the center of the magic array, a golden pillar of light slowly rose and shot straight into the sky, showing a power that rivaled the blood-red pillar of light in the distance.

"Zhou Chen, the Earth Qi Formation is complete. Quickly lend me a hand." Chen Wu's lips twitched, his voice barely audible.

Under the perception of his spiritual senses, Chen Wu's cunning expression, hidden beneath his pained face, was unmistakable.

Previously, when Li Mingde and others were present, they never mentioned that this magic array would require assistance from others to operate.

If that were the case, he wouldn't be the only one left in the Enlightenment Realm here.

Seeing the information still flashing on the panel, Zhou Chen stepped forward, placed his hand on Chen Wu's back, and poured his true energy into him like a trickle.

Nourished by the true energy of the Enlightenment Realm, Chen Wu's pressure decreased sharply, and his pained expression eased.

Chen Wu felt the true energy coming from behind him. Although it was like a trickle, it was continuous and unbroken.

"You truly are a genius. I misjudged you back then." Chen Wu swallowed the blood in his throat and spoke in a hoarse voice.

When he first met Zhou Chen, despite Hong Lie's strong recommendation, he only thought of Zhou Chen as a lucky person with some special abilities.

After all, without the support of a powerful force, the path of cultivation after internal strengthening is extremely difficult.

That's why, even though Zhou Chen played a significant role in wiping out the Wusheng Sect's stronghold, he still looked down on him.

Only now, seeing Zhou Chen chatting and laughing with his father as an awakened martial artist, did he realize that he had misjudged him all along.

But at this moment, none of that matters.

Nothing is more important than being alive.

As long as he survives, his body, which has been tempered by the earth's energy, can break through to the next level of enlightenment with a little care.

At that time, he will be a righteous and upright official who will risk his life and activate his official seal and sacrifice himself to save the surviving people of Xingde County.

He is the most dazzling new star in the entire Xijiang political arena.

The next moment, his slightly narrowed eyes suddenly widened.

The dense, almost tangible earth energy within his body flowed back towards the direction from which the true energy surged.

Once the formation beneath your feet is activated, it will continue to absorb earth energy and expand its power even without anyone activating it.

The reason why the person who activated the formation died was simply because the earth's energy was too heavy, and the person who activated the formation was contaminated by the earth's energy and could not escape.

However, if a highly skilled person is willing to replace the person who activated the formation after it is opened, then that is perfectly acceptable.

Now that Zhou Chen has been lured into the trap, it is the perfect moment for Chen Wu to slip away unnoticed.

Behind him, Zhou Chen noticed the earth's energy flowing back in reverse along the true energy transmission route.

Looking at the information prompts on the panel, Zhou Chen did not immediately start the panel to absorb the earth's energy.

He was also somewhat curious about the official seal and fortune that even the extremely strict collective punishment law established by the Great Qian Emperor had to protect.

And this earth's energy was stirred and activated by the official seal, perhaps offering a glimpse into its secrets.

The earth's energy traveled through Chen Wu's back, along Zhou Chen's palm that was pressed against his back, and spread throughout Zhou Chen's entire body.

In an instant, Zhou Chen felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, his whole body warm and comfortable, without any discomfort.

On the contrary, as the earth's energy circulates through the body's meridians, it constantly destroys and reshapes them, and the reshaped meridians become stronger with each cycle.

"Perhaps the magic array that the Great Qian Emperor ordered the imperial craftsmen to inscribe on the official seals would not cause the officials who manipulated the power of the seals to explode and die, but rather that the officials of later generations were too weak?" Zhou Chen guessed as he felt the changes in the meridians in his body.

After all, even though they are bound by the laws of the Great Qian Dynasty, officials who fight to the death to protect their official seals can be considered loyal to the human race and the Great Qian Dynasty.

It would be a great pity to let such a trusted minister die because of the formation.

As Zhou Chen pondered, the earth's energy flowing against the tide from Empress Chen Wu's heart grew stronger.

What was once a trickling stream has now become a mighty river.

Despite this, Zhou Chen's expression remained calm and composed, without the slightest trace of pain.

On the contrary, Chen Wu, who served as the bridge between the official seal and Zhou Chen, lost the support of the true energy transferred from Zhou Chen, and his body became increasingly swollen, like a balloon filled with earth energy.

"Ugh... Ugh..." Chen Wu sat cross-legged in the center of the magic circle, spitting blood from his mouth, unable to utter a single word.

At this moment, the meridians in his body had been modified to their limit by the earth's energy, but the earth's energy beneath his feet was still surging in.

He could feel his meridians cracking and his internal organs bleeding. If he couldn't escape soon, he wouldn't just be chosen as a model for rapid advancement; he would explode and die immediately.

"Why is that kid behind me still unharmed? Why can't I get away!" Chen Wu's eyes were bloodshot. The muscles in his arm, which was gripping the official seal, bulged and relaxed, but it was all in vain.

The continuous flow of earth energy within the magic array caused the official seal to adhere firmly to his palm.

"Save me... Zhou Chen..." Chen Wu's lungs had ruptured, and pinkish blood foam spilled from his mouth as he pleaded at the top of his lungs.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen slightly opened his eyelids, feeling the swelling sensation emanating from Chen Wu's body, and frowned slightly.

Given Chen Wu's current condition, he probably won't last long enough for the earth energy from the official seal to break through the blood-red network covering Xingde County before he explodes and dies.

Not only would you end up covered in blood, but you might also cut off your only escape route, which would be disastrous.

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Chen channeled his true energy into Chen Wu's body.

With the help of the true energy from Zhou Chendu, Chen Wu's body gradually returned to calm.

"Look, the patriarch is deflated again. It's all thanks to Senior Zhou's help." A member of the Chen family, unaware of the feud between Chen Wu and Zhou Chen, was overjoyed.

All they knew was that as soon as Zhou Chen made a move, their patriarch's swollen, ball-like body returned to normal.
