Chapter 1344 - 1339: The Girl in Green
This woman is not from the Ghost Sect, truly unexpected for Lin Chuan. But judging from Mu Xing's tone, this woman is really terrifying.
Lin Chuan's mind was racing as he looked at Mu Xing and said, "I can work with you, but you must tell me who this woman is."
"Alright, I'll tell you. I don't know much about her either, but she's incredibly powerful. We suspect she's the snake demon here! In this water orb, our powers are suppressed, so we need to focus all our efforts on dealing with her, then break through this water orb. We only have a sliver of a chance of survival once we're in the outside forest."
Just as Mu Xing finished speaking, a green figure appeared on the other side of the water orb, facing Lin Chuan and the others. She coldly laughed, "Surviving under my watch? What a joke!"
The green-clad woman displayed a cold smile, her arms shaking violently as green threads shot towards everyone. No one dared to take them lightly, so they all gathered their True Qi to attack the threads.
Luo Feng stood at the forefront, wielding two large hammers, slashing heavily at the green threads.
"Boom!" A pale yellow light collided with the threads, creating a massive explosion in the water curtain.
Before Luo Feng could react, the threads struck him, making him cough up blood and sending him flying back.
Lin Chuan darted through the air, catching Luo Feng and concernedly asked, "Luo Feng, are you alright?"
Luo Feng shook his head and replied, "Brother Lin, I'll be fine. It's not fatal."
"Everyone, give it everything you've got, or we'll be stuck here today!" Mu Xing's face darkened, rallying the remaining True Qi within as fiery red light emerged.
"Will this save you? Foolish!" Seeing everyone attack, the green-clad woman sneered. She spread her hands as green light streaks blasted towards them.
Everyone launched their gathered True Qi continuously, creating endless explosions within the water orb.
At this point, Lin Chuan could only push his Inner Qi to its peak and join forces with Mu Xing to attack the green-clad woman.
"Demon Transformation!" Instead of fear, the green-clad woman met the colossal energy beam head-on, dispersing green rings that shattered the entire space.
The green-clad woman sneered. A series of green swords took shape behind her, which she hurled at the group.
At this moment, the green-clad woman's face changed. "How bold!" she hollered coldly, casually striking several fleeing individuals with blasts of True Qi, then charging towards the lake's center.
Jing Tian had already dashed towards the lake center. Amidst the battle between the green-clad woman and Lin Chuan, he had decided to act. There was only one opportunity, especially with something as sacred as the Nine Revolutions Thousand Spirit Fruit! Now, he was less than ten zhang from the fruit.
Jing Tian summoned his full True Qi, rushing towards the center. Within two breaths, he reached the Nine Revolutions Thousand Spirit Fruit. He could see the nine fiery reddish fruits on the resplendent orb.
Without thinking further, Jing Tian reached out to grab the Nine Revolutions Thousand Spirit Fruit!
"How dare you!" At that moment, a tender shout echoed in his ear. Jing Tian's expression changed sharply, retracting his hand without thinking, while swiftly dodging to the left.
As he withdrew his hand, a green light slashed across, striking his body. Jing Tian coughed up blood, retreating repeatedly. He should have realized that the opponent the green-clad woman could stand against, couldn't be him.
That face was astonishingly beautiful. Her bright eyes shone coldly. Her form was exquisitely delicate! A blend of cold fragrance and fresh scent wafted over the lake.
"Despicable human, you shall die!" The green-clad woman glanced at Jing Tian with unchanged expression, then struck, weaving green threads in the air, forming a violent burst rushing towards him.
The Heavenly Gang Seal timely emerged, clashing with the green torrent. His figure then dodged sideways, abandoning the thought of the Nine Revolutions Thousand Spirit Fruit; survival was what mattered! "Boom boom boom!" Pale golden shadows overlapped on the lake, forming a colossal palm that slammed down on the incoming green light band.
The lake surface shimmered, massive force spreading in all directions, leaving Jing Tian retreating too late and falling into the lake.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan and the others initially didn't plan to rescue, but Mu Xing shouted, "Lin Chuan, act now!"
Lin Chuan pivoted, shouting, "Blue Amber."
While dealing with the others earlier, Lin Chuan used the Sky-reaching Halberd. Now calling forth Blue Amber indicated he was fighting with everything.
Blue Amber emitted a fierce blue glow, rapidly assaulting the green-clad woman.
The green-clad woman shouted sharply, her fair hands sweeping fiercely as two potent blasts shot at Blue Amber.
When Blue Amber attacked the girl in green, Lin Chuan simultaneously raised the Sky-reaching Halberd and charged forward.
Boom...
The force unleashed between the girl's hands was so powerful that it forcefully halted Blue Amber. At the same time, another surge of energy flew towards Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan swept the Sky-reaching Halberd outward, but it couldn't stop the intense force. He was forced several steps back, his chest clothes torn open by the energy, revealing the Yin Yang Jade hanging around his neck.
Lin Chuan's mind was in a haze, and a mouthful of blood spewed out, coincidentally landing on the Yin Yang Jade, creating a sensation of warmth on his chest.
"This is..." The girl in green was startled, staring at the Yin Yang Jade on Lin Chuan's chest, her heart in turmoil.
"An ancient divine artifact..." At this moment, a look of shock appeared in the girl's eyes, followed by a surge of greed. Without hesitation, she rushed towards Lin Chuan.
The green light faded, accompanied by the dispersal of a light purple beam. The girl in green charged forward, only to be absorbed by the purple radiance, her figure vanishing from sight.
This was a mysterious space, the ground beneath seemed like soil yet not soil, and above was a vast expanse of blue. Lin Chuan observed all this, his heart filled with shock: "So this is inside the Yin Yang Jade..."
A green shadow appeared; Jing Tian gazed intently and saw it was the girl in green from earlier, coldly glaring at Lin Chuan and said, "I never expected you to possess such a divine artifact!"
As for the secrets of the Yin Yang Jade, Lin Chuan actually didn't know yet, but it seemed it was that spurt of blood earlier that enabled him to open the Yin Yang Jade. This light purple space was vast, beyond what the eye can see. The girl in green briefly surveyed the area before turning her gaze back to Lin Chuan.
"Tell me, what is the purpose of this space? Otherwise, I will kill you!" The girl in green demanded, her eyes glinting with anticipation and excitement, barely able to conceal her inner fervor.
Lin Chuan glanced at her, then at the empty space around them, shaking his head, saying: "I truly don't know!"
He was speaking the truth, but in the eyes of the girl in green, it seemed a lie.
The girl in green extended one hand, emanating a powerful attraction, and Lin Chuan was irresistibly pulled towards her. She grabbed his chest, coldly stating: "I'll say it one last time, reveal the secret of this space, or you die!"
Lin Chuan stood right before her, feeling uncomfortable being held this way. Despite this, there was a gleam in his eyes.
At such close proximity, he could see clearly the exquisite and unparalleled face of the girl in green. It was a flawless face, skin like curdled cream; her attire was simple, merely some strips of green fabric, leaving large expanses of snow-white skin exposed to the air.
Lin Chuan's eyes lowered slightly, beholding the full, towering Jade Peaks, the green fabric barely covering the lower part, revealing the enticing cleavage clearly.
A faint fragrance wafted from her body straight into Lin Chuan's nose, refreshing his spirit.
"Bold!" The girl in green blushed slightly under Lin Chuan's gaze, then her face turned angry, demanding, "Will you speak or not?"
Bitterness welled up inside Lin Chuan; how could he know the secrets of the Yin Yang Jade? As for looking, well, it was her own choice of dress. He couldn't help but smile wryly, "I truly don't know…"
"Hmph, if that's the case, you can die now!" Murderous intent flashed in the girl's eyes, as a green glow condensed in her hand, striking towards Lin Chuan's chest.
How could Lin Chuan willingly resign himself to fate? With a thought, Blue Amber's light suddenly appeared, attacking the girl in green's body sharply.
The girl in green had no choice but to release him, retreating repeatedly. Lin Chuan also breathed a sigh of relief, stepping back to gain some distance from her.
"Such a snake-hearted woman, beautiful in appearance but within..." Lin Chuan sighed softly to himself, murmuring two lines under his breath.
Although his voice was low, it did not escape the ears of the girl in green. Her pretty face showed a moment of surprise, glaring at Lin Chuan, she asked, "Bastard, what did you say?"
Lin Chuan chuckled softly, not responding.
The girl, rather than getting angry, laughed with bell-like laughter, unsettling Lin Chuan's heart.
Before Lin Chuan could react, strands of green energy shot towards him. His countenance changed as he prepared to counterattack when a beam of purple light descended from the sky, enveloping him.
As that purple light encased Jing Tian, the girl's attack reached him! However, her strike hit the outer purple barrier instead.
With a crash, the purple flames surged, rebounding towards her. The girl in green spat blood, her body flung over ten zhang backward.
