"Although I didn’t manage to kill him with a single sword strike, causing him injury is also decent."
Lin Chen’s gaze fell on Xue Qing in the distance, inwardly feeling a sense of pity.
Despite the Purple Thunder Shield Beam being unable to fully unleash its power in this zone of restrictions, it wasn’t completely useless.
Had Lin Chen’s stealth attack with the sword struck Xue Qing’s heart just now, the battle would have ended.
However, as the top prodigy of Red Soul Hall, Xue Qing naturally wasn’t so easy to kill.
Therefore, Lin Chen wasn’t surprised by the opponent’s evasion.
At this mont, Xue Qing retracted the Blood Shadow Mad Lion back into his body.
The secret technique he had just used was ant to crush Lin Chen with absolute power.
However, even though the might of Blood Shadow Mad Lion was formidable, Lin Chen possessed an unpredictable movent technique, preventing the Blood Shadow Mad Lion from accurately striking its target. Continuing to use this move instead resulted in a great consumption of his Spiritual Power.
After withdrawing Blood Shadow Mad Lion, Xue Qing, holding his saber, watched Lin Chen warily, and the two of them imdiately entered a standoff.
For a ti, neither dared to make the first move.
As a premature strike might reveal a flaw to the opponent.
At this mont, Mu Qingxue’s heart was filled with shock. She had never expected Lin Chen’s strength to be so fearso.
If it weren’t for Xue Qing’s appearance, she dared not imagine her own situation right now.
Facing Lin Chen, Mu Qingxue didn’t dare to act rashly since even Xue Qing’s attacks had failed to deal a fatal blow to Lin Chen.
If she were to act recklessly, she would likely be easily defeated by Lin Chen.
And at this mont, Lin Chen was also watching Xue Qing, ready to launch an attack at any ti.
"Yo, yo, yo, what a refined interest the two of you have, choosing this place to fight. It really is quite lively."
"Since that’s the case, let join in the fun."
"Old friend, you should welco my arrival, right?"
Just as Lin Chen and Xue Qing were in a standoff, suddenly, the voice of a man ca from afar.
Lin Chen turned his head upon hearing the voice, only to see a figure walking out from the Blood Mist with a cold sneer.
Lin Chen looked at the person, his eyes narrowing slightly.
The newcor was Li Chu.
Lin Chen had been so focused on the intense fight with Xue Qing that he hadn’t even noticed Li Chu approaching.
At this mont, Li Chu, Xue Qing, and Mu Qingxue each took a position, causing Lin Chen’s expression to beco serious.
Because, however he looked at it, the positions of these three people resembled the Formation Eye of so Formation.
Lin Chen, proficient in formations, saw through this in an instant. It seed that Red Soul Hall had made preparations to deal with him a long ti ago.
Currently, the Formation was missing one corner, and presumably, that spot was reserved for Zhou Xiaoyun.
These three hadn’t used such tactics at the beginning likely because each one of them believed they had enough power to kill Lin Chen on their own, hence they did not imdiately activate the Killing Formation.
However, the battle between Lin Chen and Xue Qing made them realize that none of them could kill Lin Chen by re personal strength, and therefore they had no choice but to activate the Killing Formation.
Yet, the most important Formation Eye was unoccupied, presumably because Zhou Xiaoyun specialized in stealth attacks, and leaving this spot for him would allow for the greatest effect.
If things were as Lin Chen expected, the combined power of the four would indeed be challenging for him to deal with.
After all, the Killing Formation, along with the three people before him, added to Zhou Xiaoyun’s surprise attack tactics, would indeed make it quite difficult for Lin Chen to guard against.
"Lin Chen, oh Lin Chen, you were already a damned fellow, yet even after becoming a cripple, you still managed to display your might. Seems like the fortunes you acquired are not small," Li Chu said, his gaze coldly fixed on Lin Chen, the corner of his mouth revealing a smirk. Beneath that smile, however, murderous intent was hidden.
Hum——
Imdiately after, Li Chu waved his hand, and a blood wave like ripples instantly spread outwards.
The blood wave gradually expanded, eventually turning into Blood Mist, enveloping dozens of miles around within it.
Following that, a barrier ford outside the Blood Mist, its primary function being to prevent Lin Chen from escaping.
Lin Chen watched Li Chu’s movents with a grave expression.
Dealing with Xue Qing was already thorny, and now with the addition of Li Chu, it would be very difficult for Lin Chen to handle both of them simultaneously relying solely on his true strength.
Swoosh——
Naturally, Lin Chen wouldn’t just sit and await his doom; he imdiately employed his movent technique in an attempt to flee in all directions.
...
At the sa ti, Xiao Changkong was cautiously traversing a wetland in the Grey Marsh Plain.
He constantly kept an eye out for any movent around because one could not externally project their Soul Power in these plains, making navigation exceedingly difficult.
After entering Grey Marsh Plain, he deliberately avoided places that seed to promise opportunities and successfully stayed away from the Martial Artists of Divine Fla Alliance and Red Soul Hall.
But along the way, he encountered many terrifying poisonous insects, and Xiao Changkong barely escaped with his life.
Xiao Changkong’s heart was filled with hatred towards Lin Chen, Formation Sect, and even the entire Divine Fla Alliance.
Because his Bodhi Hall no longer existed, his martial uncles and sect mbers were trapped within Formation Sect, even subjected to Divine Soul Restrictions—an indignity they could not bear.
If he was not worried about being discovered by Lin Chen and the Divine Fla Alliance, Xiao Changkong would have long wished to attack the Martial Artists of the Divine Fla Alliance. However, such a risk was not worth taking.
However, three days ago, while on the run, Xiao Changkong heard a calling voice that echoed in the depths of his heart, as if beckoning him.
He could not suppress his curiosity and that call, so he set out towards it.
Xiao Changkong followed the calling voice into a cave that seed to lead underground.
He walked for three days and three nights, yet did not reach the end. With his pace, he should have covered several hundred miles in three days, making it unimaginable how deep underground he had gone.
Not until the fourth day did the path beco spacious, and the pitch-black space gradually showed signs of light.
Xiao Changkong’s heart surged with a mix of alarm and joy; he knew that so kind of opportunity must be waiting for him down below.
