I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

"Impossible! Impossible! My body is so hot, how can it not show on the outside?" Zhang Chen simply tore off his clothes in the cave, sitting naked inside. Although the cave was extremely cold, it couldn't affect Zhang Chen in the slightest.

"Damn it, does it want to burn me to death?" Zhang Chen only felt a ball of fire inside his body, constantly scorching his internal organs.

Zhang Chen silently circulated the Light of the True God, but it was useless.

He lowered his head and looked at his palm, only to see that it was completely normal, seemingly without any abnormalities.

"Impossible, my body is so hot, how can there be no sweat at all?" Zhang Chen stared at his palm, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Just then, Zhang Chen seemed to remember something. He quickly opened his Divine Eye. As the Divine Eye opened, Zhang Chen was completely stunned. Looking at his arm, he was speechless and didn't know what to do.

In his Divine Eye, his entire body was shrouded in a layer of red light. The red light was like a flame several meters high, firmly enveloping him. The Light of the True God that he had cultivated was actually suppressed by the fiery red flames.

Zhang Chen stared at his arm with both eyes. His arm was shrouded in a layer of fiery red flames. The flames flickered and twisted, appearing full of a bloody aura.

"What's going on? What kind of mutation is happening to my body?" A hint of horror appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes.

Looking closely at the flames, he saw countless ancient symbols flickering within. The countless ancient symbols combined to form tiny chains, and the chains intertwined, flickering according to some mysterious law.

"What the hell is this?" Zhang Chen looked at the chains in the red light, his eyes full of horror. For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he didn't know what was happening.

Zhang Chen forced himself to calm down, then stared intently at his arm, quickly summarizing two clues in his mind: "The first possibility is that my third skill devoured some unknown liquid, and that liquid was left behind by some powerful being. That powerful being wants to seize my body. However, my Light of the True God has no reaction, and my mental will remains unchanged, not affected in any way, so this possibility can be ruled out. The second possibility is that I am undergoing marrow cleansing and experiencing some kind of special change. Once this change is endured, it will be extremely beneficial to me."

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind as he felt the powerful heat within his body. Even breathing felt suffocated by the heat.

"I can't dig the cave today!" Zhang Chen slowly stood up, feeling pain in every part of his body, so much so that he grimaced. It was as if his body was being torn apart, the feeling like being burned by flames and splashed with chili water, so painful that he was about to faint.

"What exactly was that blood? This third skill of mine seems a bit strange!" Zhang Chen staggered towards his home, but before he could reach it, a sharp pain struck, and he fainted directly.

At this moment, Zhang Chen didn't realize that all the blood in his body had completely evaporated, turning into streams of red liquid, combining with the runes attached to the red light around Zhang Chen, and intertwining according to some mysterious law, gathering towards Zhang Chen's heart. Before long, it had gathered within Zhang Chen's heart.

At this moment, there was no blood left in Zhang Chen's body. All the blood had transformed into rune form, gathering within his heart.

Of course, a single heart couldn't fully bear all the blood in a person's body, but when the blood was transformed into rune form, it actually self-compressed and rotated, twisting according to some peculiar law. Before long, a crystal the size of a grain of rice appeared in Zhang Chen's heart.

The crystal was formed by compressing all the blood in Zhang Chen's body along with the runes. If it were taken out and examined closely, it would be exactly the same as the crystal that Zhang Chen had dug out of the tombstone before.

At this moment, the crystal emitted a dazzling red light, illuminating Zhang Chen's body as if it were a piece of transparent jade.

Fortunately, after three breaths, the crystal's light faded, and then a stream of golden blood flowed out from the crystal, dripping into Zhang Chen's heart. Unfortunately, the blood was too small and couldn't fill the entire heart.

Then, the drop of golden blood suddenly evaporated, turning into a cloud of mist, filling not only Zhang Chen's heart, but even beginning to fill Zhang Chen's blood vessels.

"Boom!"

The withered heart began to beat, and the golden mist seemed to replace the blood, supporting the blood supply throughout the body and the transportation of energy.

As the heart beat, Zhang Chen's entire person began to revive little by little. The blood-producing function of the liver began to recover, and drops of bright red blood slowly flowed out, gradually submerging the golden mist in the bright red blood.

Suddenly, at a certain moment, Zhang Chen, who had fainted on the ground, opened his eyes. An indescribable sense of weakness filled his entire body. At this moment, Zhang Chen only felt dizzy and his mind was in chaos, as if he had lost too much blood and fallen into brain death.

At the same time, a huge sense of hunger swept through his body, causing Zhang Chen's abdomen to rumble like thunder.

Zhang Chen wanted to struggle to get up, but without any blood in his body, where would he get the strength to get up?

At this moment, the blood in Zhang Chen's body had not yet recovered.

"Damn it! Why am I so weak?" Zhang Chen's eyes were full of confusion as he constantly checked his condition. He felt like he had lost too much blood.

But after looking through all his skills, it seemed that there was no way to solve it.

"It seems there's only the Blood Absorption skill left!"

Zhang Chen struggled to open the lid and grabbed the immovable pheasant.

Regardless of whether blood absorption would work or not, this was the only thing he could do!
