Chapter 1247 - 1244: Accepting the Challenge
The person's spiritual power forcefully took over Lin Chuan, naturally making him very angry. This time, it wasn't the Blue Amber in Lin Chuan's hand that was controlled, but a large steel pipe nearby, weighing at least several thousand pounds. The person found it a bit difficult to control, but Lin Chuan couldn't avoid it. The person used the steel pipe as a weapon and swept it across. Even if Lin Chuan wanted to dodge a certain range now, he didn't have the time. All of that person's abilities seemed to come from his eyes. Lin Chuan envied it greatly, but all he had was True Qi, not superpowers. Lin Chuan longed to have a special ability like theirs, but after countless attempts and this long feeling, Lin Chuan was truly disappointed. He was just an ordinary cultivator, nothing unique about him!
Lin Chuan couldn't dodge, but that didn't mean he would just stand there waiting to die. The fastest response Lin Chuan could make was to forcibly activate all his True Qi, whether yellow or red, with the same effect.
Lin Chuan's body felt very uncomfortable, not because of the opponent's attack, as it hadn't arrived yet. Lin Chuan's discomfort was due to the conflict between yellow True Qi and red True Qi. Wang Penglai had said that when the two types of True Qi met, it would be the end for Lin Chuan. Now it seemed exaggerated, but not untruthful. Every cell in Lin Chuan's body felt like it was splitting open. Without even starting to fight, an internal territory battle had already begun in his body, with the winner being able to let Lin Chuan use their power smoothly. However, their battle was at the cost of Lin Chuan's pain.
Lin Chuan felt very bitter because he was already facing a life-threatening danger, and now these two disobedient True Qi started fighting each other. What should he do? Lin Chuan absolutely didn't want the two True Qi to bring him down in responsibility. He made a choice in his heart: the red True Qi was slightly superior, and even though it was hard to control, Lin Chuan decided to first use red True Qi to save his life.
The yellow light on him disappeared instantly, and the red light seemed triumphant, very excited. It played a significant role by gathering all True Qi into his hands, striking fiercely at that spot, not intending to stop it completely, but to slow it down a bit.
Lin Chuan struck out a dozen palms in succession, which had some effect. With Lin Chuan's interference like this, the person's control wasn't so perfect, showing some trembling, but the speed was still fast. Lin Chuan couldn't continue striking and guarded his chest with his hands, protecting his body as much as possible.
Whoosh...
Lin Chuan was suddenly sent flying, penetrating a stone wall and landing on a nearby small hill, creating a large pit and stopping there.
Lin Chuan even stopped thinking. Although he didn't feel pain, even his thoughts seemed frozen. Lin Chuan didn't know what part of his body he could still control, but his hands were out of control for sure. Upon careful feeling, Lin Chuan smiled bitterly in his heart. Unexpectedly, he could only control one foot and one hand now!
Looking again at where he flew from, he felt fortunate. At the last moment, Lin Chuan had stimulated all his True Qi to its maximum, not for attacking, but to protect himself. That's why only some areas lost sensation. If it had been like before, he might have died already.
The person might not have the strength of the Sword Control Stage, but he could fly with objects, solely relying on his superpower. As long as there were metal objects around him, he could soar into the air.
"You're quite lucky not to be dead yet, but if I kill you now, nobody seems to dare say anything!" the person said with a smile.
Lin Chuan had no strength to speak, but the disdain in his eyes made the person very unhappy. Nobody had dared look at him like that for so long!
A slender small sword, the tip pointing at Lin Chuan, spinning continuously. With just a thought, Lin Chuan would meet his doom. Lin Chuan could feel the man's killing intent aimed at him, feeling very bitter inside. Once again, he experienced the pain of being at another's mercy, the powerlessness of being a pitiful insect.
"Actually, I'm not afraid to tell you now, the most unfortunate thing isn't your defeat. Many of us here could defeat you. Even my strength is mediocre. Those above me could deal with you easily, but they won't kill you. Unfortunately, I've always wanted to kill you." The person's eyes flashed with cold light, knowing if he didn't act now, he wouldn't have another chance.
The person looked at the red glow on Lin Chuan's body with greed, not realizing that greed could lead one quietly to demise!
The sword's spinning speed increased, without any doubt, if it pierced him, Lin Chuan would be torn apart. Lin Chuan's heart wasn't filled with despair or sadness. It was like his body, without any feeling. Lin Chuan wanted to reminisce about pleasant memories from his life but found his mind obscured by red True Qi, unable to express any feelings.
Lin Chuan closed his eyes, having no interest in watching his own death.
"Huh!" Lin Chuan felt puzzled. He had closed his eyes for at least thirty to forty seconds! Why hadn't the attack landed yet?
He opened his eyes slowly, seeing a familiar figure. It was Zhang Wenzheng, who had brought him here.
Zhang Wenzheng stood in front of Lin Chuan, not even having the chance to speak, striking continuously, forming dozens of forceful True Qi blasts.
Those people couldn't resist Zhang Wenzheng's attacks, flustered and disorganized. No matter how strong, everyone has weaknesses, and Zhang Wenzheng just grasped that person's weakness.
"Lin Chuan, these are the main enemies we're here to deal with." Seeing Lin Chuan open his eyes, Zhang Wenzheng didn't attack the others but spoke while looking at Lin Chuan.
Hearing this, Lin Chuan immediately knew this was Zhang Wenhui, the reincarnation of Ksitigarbha. Surprised, he quickly scrambled up, holding Blue Amber, watching these people.
Lin Chuan didn't know the origin of these people, but given Zhang Wenhui's words, these people were naturally enemies.
"Lin Chuan, I'll handle these people first. You quickly meditate to recover your Inner Qi," Zhang Wenhui said to Lin Chuan while fighting those people.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan sat cross-legged, starting the Heavenly Heart Skill to restore his depleted Inner Qi.
While Lin Chuan meditated to recover Inner Qi, two more experts arrived, attacking Zhang Wenhui together, making it hard to tell the outcome.
The Heavenly Heart Skill circulated in his body for several cycles. Somehow, Lin Chuan found his Inner Qi recovering rapidly this time.
In less than half an hour, Lin Chuan's Inner Qi was completely restored. He rose up, attacking the closest person to him.
That person's True Qi cultivation wasn't weak and managed to block Lin Chuan's attack. However, after a few moves, realizing he wasn't Lin Chuan's match, he started to dodge.
That person's every dodge inadvertently revealed his actions, perhaps never expecting such a situation!
Lin Chuan's moves were both real and feigned, primarily to divert the person's attention, allowing him to more easily send him to his demise.
Sure enough, the person was at a loss for what to do. Being a superpower bearer, combat wasn't his forte, especially when Lin Chuan was close. Only then did he realize Lin Chuan's true strength. Having never fought close combat with Lin Chuan before, he wasn't familiar with Lin Chuan's power. Now with Lin Chuan close, his regret came too late. Alone, Lin Chuan's strength was equivalent to the combined strength of those three. Especially Lin Chuan's bizarre attacks, like some conspiracy, but the person just couldn't figure it out.
Lin Chuan was delighted, knowing this blow would surely injure the person before him!
Using Blue Amber to block the small sword aimed at him, Lin Chuan resolved that if this strike couldn't kill or wound this person, he should retreat early.
Just as Lin Chuan had thought, a significant flaw appeared. As long as Lin Chuan seized this opportunity, he could kill this person.
Several people rushed forward. While dealing with one person, he had no energy left. Now, adding three more people...
The person was thoroughly doomed, ironically killed by his small sword.
After handling these three, Zhang Wenhui suddenly turned around, ran towards Lin Chuan, and said, "Lin Chuan, this guy is yours to deal with."
Lin Chuan had already noticed the person fighting with Zhang Wenhui. His cultivation was much higher than the others.
"Your opponent is me!" Lin Chuan stepped forward, gripping Blue Amber tighter, ready for any movement from the opponent to react immediately.
"Do you think you're worthy to be my opponent?" The person became serious, intimidatingly. Although he had seen Lin Chuan's strength, Wang Shitian wasn't concerned. No matter how impressive Lin Chuan was, he wasn't a match for him.
