My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1823 - 1792: Hope for Life

Li Chen had a dream, a very long dream.

In the dream, he saw himself when he was very young, pinching his nose while drinking bitter Chinese medicine, soaking in a medicinal bath, his whole body turning red from the scalding potion.

He also saw himself in his youth, full of ambition, walking out of Panlong Village.

Then, he arrived in Europe, starting from the very bottom, relying on his excellent skills and strong learning ability, surviving numerous dangers, amassing more and more capital, and finally, with a group of like-minded friends, founding the Palace of the Nether King.

Upon returning to Linchuan, he met... a woman named Lin Yi.

In his sleep, Li Chen’s lips couldn’t help but curl into a smile, but with half his body already lost and his body covered in scars, the smile looked somewhat grotesque on his face.

Afterwards, in a series of hard-won peaceful days, Li Chen met the most important people in his life one by one.

Lin Xiaoxiao, An Qin, Wang Qianqian...

As if a film was playing in reverse, one figure after another swiftly flashed through Li Chen’s mind, even some deeply buried memories replaying over and over in his head.

Yang Xin in the sky, with a bitter smile, silently watching him.

And a pure girl, smiling as she looked at him.

"Brother Li Chen, why are you so good to me?"

"From now on, I’ll live for myself!"

"If I could choose a way to die, I hope it would be... for you."

"Brother Li Chen, remember Lilith in the future."

...

Li Chen’s expression once again tightened.

"It’s me, the Sacred Mountain Sect Leader Lieu Zhanxiao, monster, prepare to die!!" Lieu Zhanxiao’s roar echoed.

"You are more suited to be a leader than I am; consider it a favor owed to me, live well and avenge me." Sulin’s dying wish.

"Li Chen, thank you, and... actually, I have a little crush on you." Patricia’s last words.

And Cherie’s final, satisfied smile as she gazed at him.

"... It would be great if Brother Cheen could see me, wouldn’t it?" Li Chen seemed to finally understand the meaning behind Cherie’s final smile.

...

Yet another girl in clothes as white as snow appeared in Li Chen’s mind.

"Who are you, and why are you helping me?"

"I have a brother too, his name is also Li Chen."

"You’re my third brother, aren’t you?"

"Brother, let’s leave here together!"

"Brother, don’t do this, let’s go together, don’t do this!"

...

"Netherworld! Protect mom, I’ll come back, and at that time, I’ll help mom recover her memory, and we’ll... be reunited as a family!!"

Li Chen’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, startling the Primordial Heavy Water beside him.

"No, I can’t die yet, I can’t fall here, there are still so many things I haven’t done, how can I die here?!" Li Chen opened his mouth but couldn’t make a sound, he could only roar in his heart.

The intense dizziness returned again, Li Chen could no longer feel pain, but this dizziness still hammered like a heavy mace against the depths of his mind.

Yet Li Chen gritted his teeth, blood-stained forehead showing bulging veins, forcing himself to stay awake.

Seeing Li Chen like this, even the Primordial Heavy Water was moved.

Having existed for so long, the Primordial Heavy Water had seen countless people.

Even her masters, each one was incredibly mighty and renowned.

But among everyone the Primordial Heavy Water had encountered, none had a will to survive as strong as Li Chen’s.

She could see that at this moment, Li Chen truly had no strength left, yet he relied on sheer willpower, unwilling to leave his fate to destiny.

He wanted to live, relying on his willpower to hold on.

"You..." The gaze of the Primordial Heavy Water was complex, silently locking eyes with Li Chen, as if understanding part of his mindset.

"The Eight, how are the preparations?!"

The Primordial Heavy Water called out.

"Ready!" The Eight Trigrams Array did not speak, instead, the voice of the Two-Yi Yin Yang Mirror came from somewhere unknown: "Relying on my power can only barely open this Life Essence Array, but it still needs true blood to be sacrificed to unleash the best effect."

"Where are Old Nine and Red Moon?" The Primordial Heavy Water called out again.

"We... are back."

Primordial Heavy Water turned his head and saw two young men standing at the cave entrance.

The Heavenly Dao Pearl had no changes, but on Red Moon’s small body, it was covered with traces of blood.

"Quick! Activate the Life Essence Array, inject vitality, otherwise he really won’t hold on much longer!" Primordial Heavy Water commanded in a deep voice.

"Alright!"

"Boom!"

I don’t know how the Bagua Array Diagram achieved this, but it embedded the entire Life Essence Array with the cave as its core into the entire mountain.

With deep rumbling sounds, intense Power of Vitality began to flow out from all around the cave, gathering toward Li Chen.

Originally, Li Chen’s body was continually collapsing into ashes, but the pace of the collapse finally slowed down.

At this time, a light of escape appeared, and the Five Elements Boots returned.

"This is some life materials I’ve gathered from the surroundings." The Five Elements Boots rushed in holding a large bunch of Spiritual Medicine.

Primordial Heavy Water nodded, taking these Spiritual Medicines.

Li Chen couldn’t move at all now, unable to open the ring and the Five Elements Space. To save Li Chen, they could only rely on themselves.

With a slight movement of his hand, a black light enveloped the Spiritual Medicine, which continuously decomposed under the black light. This wasn’t alchemy but a kind of alchemy ability. Primordial Heavy Water was using his ability to continually dispel impurities and things useless to Li Chen from the Spiritual Medicines.

In the end, a misty glow containing rich Power of Vitality appeared in the air, and with a wave of his hand, this glow directly poured into Li Chen’s mouth.

The injuries on Li Chen were numerous, but the most severe was the internal Power of Destruction triggered when the world collapsed.

Why is the destruction of a world so terrifying? It’s because when a world collapses, it also produces a Power of Destruction. Moreover, this Power of Destruction is even higher level compared to Li Chen’s current one.

The disparity is like the First Realm and the Fourth Realm of Li Chen’s Space Law.

Even though the Immortal Treasure Realm is not large, it is a world. The Power of Destruction it formed wasn’t strong, but its realm was extremely high. Coupled with the injuries Li Chen already had from the Law of Destruction, the entire connection led to a major collapse of Li Chen’s body and soul.

If it were anyone else, they would likely have already died directly.

But Li Chen is different.

He originally possessed the Law of Destruction, and more coincidentally, not long ago, Li Chen had just comprehended the Life Law.

Under the premise of forcibly extending life with the Life Law, the Law of Destruction also somewhat resisted the massive collapse, allowing Li Chen to barely hold onto half a life.

But even so, now he is truly on the brink of death.

Looking at Li Chen, lying still with his eyes wide open, Primordial Heavy Water’s face gradually became grim.

"Big sister, what’s wrong? Boss..."

"Big sister?"

Primordial Heavy Water’s expression was quite grim: "Although the Power of Vitality has forcibly sustained his life force, this sustenance is a mutual consumption correspondingly. It can preserve his life, but it cannot let him recover."

"Then boss..." The Heavenly Dao Pearl tightly clenched its fist, and Red Moon lowered his head, the blood light on his body faintly flickering.

"The Law of Destruction has already completely eroded his body, even every drop of blood has been infected by the power of the Law of Destruction. When the Power of Vitality is exhausted, he will still be completely decomposed." Said Primordial Heavy Water grimly.

Infected by the Law of Destruction, the final outcome is decomposition, completely breaking down into basic Energy Particles, and now Li Chen’s state is in a forced-maintenance of life state.

Once the Power of Vitality is exhausted, his body will still collapse completely, eventually infecting the soul, even the soul will decompose into Energy Particles, with no chance of being reborn in reincarnation.

"What do we... do?"

"I... have a way." At this moment, Li Chen, who had been gritting his teeth, said with difficulty.

"Boss you..."

Nourished by the vitality, Li Chen finally recovered a little strength, barely able to speak, though his voice was like a land that had been dried out for countless years, full of a sense of exhaustion.

"Indestructible Body!" Li Chen struggled to utter a word.

"Indestructible Body, you want to advance to an Indestructible Body, and then be reborn through it?" Hearing this phrase, Primordial Heavy Water instantly realized.

"But your whole blood is now infected by the Law of Destruction. Even if you want to advance, there is no way to do it unless you can find your own Undamaged Blood." Primordial Heavy Water, knowledgeable and experienced, quickly figured it out.

Li Chen shook his head: "Mirror... lend me a bit of strength."

The Two-Yi Yin Yang Mirror said nothing, directly coming to Li Chen’s side, and pure Power of Yin and Yang frantically infused into Li Chen’s body.

Li Chen cautiously moved his right hand slightly, a finger lifted slightly, but even such a simple movement covered Li Chen’s forehead with cold sweat.

"Help me out." Li Chen smiled wryly: "Can you lift my hand?"

Red Moon stood by silently, quietly helping Li Chen raise his arm. What a hero the master is! No matter how powerful the enemy, he never backed down, yet now he has fallen to such a state!

Li Chen looked at Red Moon, his gaze gentle.

His finger made a slight stroke, and a crack appeared beside Li Chen’s body, this is Li Chen’s... Five Elements Space, or rather, it can now be called a small world.

The moment he opened his own world, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Chen’s mouth, unexpectedly, the unintentional action from before might become the key to saving his life now.

Remotely, through the cracked gap, Li Chen sensed the Qi-Blood Power belonging to himself in the world inside the gap!
