159: The clone was killed instantly!

Lin Chuan thought the little girl would make a fuss.

After all, she was just a useless little girl.

In this world-class arena, where the world's sovereignty was being contested, she was nothing more than cannon fodder.

Without the Shadow Clone Lin Chuan gave her, she might not even survive!

The little girl's thick eyelashes trembled, and her cherry-pink lips turned white.

But unexpectedly, she didn't make a fuss; instead, she looked at Lin Chuan and asked, "Then, will you still come back?"

"We'll see. If I'm alive, I'll come back for you; if I'm dead, you'll have to figure it out yourself."

Lin Chuan's tone was light and dismissive, as if life and death meant nothing to him.

After all, this was just a dream.

Furthermore, he was even using a Shadow Clone.

If the Shadow Clone died, he would return to his main body.

If his main body died, he would wake up in reality.

It could be said that his sense of security was at its peak.

Aiya didn't know any of this; she just clenched her small fists and said, "Then, you must come back alive…"

"I'll try my best."

After speaking, Lin Chuan immediately used Instant Flash with his Shadow Clone and rushed towards the coordinates of the first-place ranking on the leaderboard provided by the Secret Realm!

Yes, he planned to use a Shadow Clone in the dream realm to meet another version of himself!

Every Lin Chuan in every world had a different experience.

But to be able to occupy the top spot on the leaderboard in this Secret Realm, where world sovereignty was being contested…

Undoubtedly, the Lin Chuan here was very strong!

Lin Chuan, controlling the Shadow Clone, was also very excited!

He was finally going to confront another version of himself!

Since it was in a dream, and he was using a Shadow Clone!

Lin Chuan could be said to be incredibly reckless and brave!

He used his Instant Flash Talent to demonstrate what it meant to walk on the sea without leaving a trace!

Approaching the coordinates of the first-place ranking, as Aiya described, the waves there were churning wildly, almost reaching the sky!

Normal boats simply couldn't navigate in such conditions!

Anyone else wanting to attack the first-place ranked player would have to abandon their boat and venture in alone!

Lin Chuan didn't have a boat, but the moment his figure paused, he was immediately tossed into the air by a wave!

He was so dizzy his head was spinning!

The crucial thing was that the Shadow Clone wasn't carrying any items.

He was completely empty-handed!

At this moment, Lin Chuan couldn't even use the blue wine!

Just as he continued to use Instant Flash, recklessly plunging into the churning waves.

His A-Level Talent Intuition activated.

He felt an extreme danger, a sense of death approaching!

It was as if his entire being was locked onto by the God of Death, and in the next second, he would bid farewell to the entire world!

Lin Chuan had rich combat experience and almost instantly judged—

He must have been "locked on"!

Among the more powerful professions in later generations, archers were one.

And the key to archers' power lay in the fact that their main weapons mostly came with a "lock-on" effect!

Once a player was "locked on," no matter how agile their movement technique, they couldn't evade an arrow that could lock onto its target!

However, Lin Chuan had previously obtained an A-Level Talent—Empty Firmament Barrier!

It could precisely clear all effects on himself!

That, of course, included the lock-on effect!

So, Lin Chuan reacted extremely quickly and cast Empty Firmament Barrier on himself!

But!

To his surprise, Empty Firmament Barrier did not clear the lock-on effect on him at all!

Even more, in the next second, a black light flashed!

Lin Chuan only felt a chill on his neck, and his consciousness completely dissipated!

His entire being went blank for a moment.

When his consciousness returned, he was already back in his own body in the library's reading room.

And his connection with the Shadow Clone was completely severed.

In other words, the Shadow Clone was dead.

Killed instantly by another version of himself!

Lin Chuan chuckled indifferently, even praising, "As expected of me!"

Very strong.

His Shadow Clone was instantly killed even before it could meet "himself"!

The main issue was that "lock-on" effect; Lin Chuan's Empty Firmament Barrier couldn't clear it!

Could it be that Empty Firmament Barrier was too weak?

No, it should be that the weapon used by that "Lin Chuan" was too strong.

That last black light…

Lin Chuan thought of a peerless divine artifact, invincible in one-on-one combat—the Death Scythe!

The Death Scythe's one-on-one invincibility was absolutely true invincibility!

As a divine artifact, it had only two simple effects—

1. Lock onto the target.

2. Reap the target's life!

That's right, it was that simple and brutal: directly reaping life!

Are you physically strong? Is your defense invincible?

All useless!

Why was the Death Scythe ranked first on the divine artifact list?

It was precisely because of its overbearing, almost unsolvable offensive capability!

Of course, the Death Scythe was not absolutely unsolvable.

Firstly, its reaping ability had a 1-minute cooldown.

As long as that minute was utilized well, there was still hope in group battles.

But the problem was, as soon as Lin Chuan encountered another version of himself,

the Killing Game would directly generate an Absolute Domain for the two of them!

Inside the Absolute Domain, it would be two Lin Chuans, a one-on-one duel!

What the heck!

How could he duel when the other party had the Death Scythe!

Wasn't this just asking for death?!!!

Lin Chuan flipped his palm, and a white jade bottle appeared in his hand.

With his experience from two lifetimes, he did have a way to deal with the Death Scythe.

It was just that the price was a bit high.

And, he needed to experiment.

Coincidentally, this dream hadn't ended yet.

Lin Chuan washed off the stinky mud, changed his clothes, but still carried an undeniable stench.

There was no other way; the smell of stinky mud usually lasted two to three days, which was why he was unwilling to use it in reality.

Anyway, this was in a dream.

Lin Chuan removed the illusion array disc and left the reading room.

The members of the Azure Jade Gang had gone on a guild upgrade quest and hadn't returned yet.

And the vending machine area was currently occupied by other forces.

In fact, several forces occupied it simultaneously, and they were full of hostility, ready to fight at any moment.

As soon as Lin Chuan came out of the reading room, he attracted countless gazes.

One by one, the hostile powerhouses instantly extinguished their fire.

Their bodies stiffened, and they looked at Lin Chuan with vigilance.

Some even, clearly scared to the point of weak knees, were still thinking of escaping at any moment.

Lin Chuan, however, was quite benevolent.

He waved at these people, his tone casual: "You guys continue, don't mind me."

After speaking, his figure disappeared from where he stood!

It wasn't that he used his Invisibility Talent.

Instead, he directly teleported to Kyoto.

Since it was in a dream, Lin Chuan was truly reckless!

He first flashed to the Su Family old mansion.

Because the stinky mud had already been washed off, all players in the world could sense his coordinates in real-time.

So the moment he appeared at the Su Family old mansion, the entire Su Family panicked!

The hidden powerhouses guarding the old mansion immediately moved out.

And the powerhouses who were out hunting monsters also returned one after another!

Lin Chuan didn't waste any words.

He didn't even use Two Extremes Change; he directly used Ice Mist Domain to control the field!

Then, iron wires, casually and wildly, reaped lives.

Directly demonstrating what it meant—

In reality, I am timid (?);

In the dream, I strike hard!

And Su Ling, Su Hai, and others were among those who returned from outside!

Lin Chuan didn't bother with pleasantries; he directly reaped Su Hai's life.

Then, he waited for Su Ling to aim her Ming Han Bow at him.

Yes, Lin Chuan's main purpose in coming here was to use Su Ling for an experiment.

He wanted to see if his Empty Firmament Barrier could indeed clear the "lock-on" effect.

Was it that the "lock-on" effect of the Death Scythe had too high a priority?

Or was this trash Empty Firmament Barrier simply unable to clear the "lock-on" effect!
