203: Chapter 201: Revealing Lin Chen's secrets, sending treasures to plunder Qi
Above the sky, dark clouds surged, and a fierce wind swept across the ground. Suddenly, a giant purple hand pierced through the dark clouds and grabbed downwards. The terrifying energy created ripples, and space fluctuated like water.
The ultimate target of the giant hand was Lin Chen, Li Mengran, and the others on the ground.
The three of them suddenly sensed the disturbance in the sky, their expressions changed drastically, and they quickly activated their Spirit Treasures to resist.
Three streaks of energetic divine light flashed, and a thick energy barrier appeared, directly blocking the giant hand descending from the sky.
"Boom!"
The energy barrier of the three vibrated violently. The giant hand pressed down on them, and the intense energy impact instantly turned Li Mengran and Zhou Qiluo's faces pale, causing them to vomit a mouthful of fresh blood.
Lin Chen's cultivation was, after all, more powerful, so his condition was much better than the other two. However, at this moment, he also exposed his true nature, not caring about the others at all.
Compared to gaining favorability and cashback treasures, his own life was more important. If they died, they died; he could always find others.
Zhou Qiluo and Li Mengran's eyes widened. Seeing Lin Chen flee without looking back, their faces were filled with disbelief, as if they were seeing him for the first time.
The huge claw continued to press down. The energy barrier above their heads had already shattered, and they were pressed into the ground by the giant hand.
During the process, Li Mengran's Physical Body disintegrated, her Divine Soul light flickering as she fled into the passage.
Zhou Qiluo, on the other hand, fell heavily into the passage below. Her Physical Body was still relatively stable, but her entire body's Qi was in disarray, and a red glow flickered in her mind, as if she was about to lose consciousness.
After they fell into the underground passage, the monster's giant hand could not continue to press down, being blocked by the ground.
Outside, there were still intense energy fluctuations and the roar of battle, presumably Lin Chen had been targeted.
Li Mengran, whose Physical Body had been shattered, leaving only her Divine Soul, her eyes flickering, said in a deep voice, "Why? Didn't the Saint have a good impression of me? Why would he abandon me?"
Zhou Qiluo, who had recovered some of her senses, heard Li Mengran's murmur, her eyes flickering.
She also wanted to ask why. Hadn't Lin Chen treated her extremely well, even sending her things? But in the end, why did he choose to flee?
At this moment, a figure fell from the hole above; it was Lin Chen, who landed beside the two.
The person they had just been complaining about suddenly appeared before them, and their expressions instantly darkened.
Lin Chen was also very embarrassed. He had originally fled, but he didn't expect these two to turn misfortune into fortune and actually find such a passage.
He also noticed their gloomy expressions and quickly took out Medicinal Pills, presenting them to the two.
"Qiluo, this is a High Grade healing Medicinal Pill. Take it first."
He said, without the slightest hesitation, and placed a Low Grade High Grade Saint Heart Origin Pill in front of her Divine Soul light.
"Junior Sister Mengran, this is a High Grade Medicinal Pill, the Saint Heart Origin Pill. Take it, and you'll soon be able to restore your Physical Body!"
Li Mengran looked bewildered, about to refuse, but Lin Chen had already refined the medicinal power and integrated it into her Divine Soul light.
Her Physical Body rapidly re-condensed and grew at a visible speed, and in just over ten breaths, it had completely recovered.
"You... Saint, you left us outside just now, why are you saving us now?" Li Mengran struggled for a long time but still asked the question.
Lin Chen frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "When did I ever abandon you? At that time, I was merely looking for a way to deal with that fellow."
Li Mengran and Zhou Qiluo were originally very angry, but the Medicinal Pills he had just given them were indeed of a very High Grade, allowing them to recover. This was a tangible fact, so they no longer doubted him.
"Then what do we do now?" Zhou Qiluo asked, puzzled.
Lin Chen's eyes flickered, staring intently at the two.
"No rush. To make up for my mistake just now, each of you will receive three High Grade Spirit Treasures. You must protect yourselves well!"
Lin Chen gave them the Spirit Treasures without hesitation. When the High Grade Spirit Treasures were placed before the two women, they were still somewhat slow to react.
Lin Chen didn't give them a chance to refuse, stuffing them into their hands, and they could only accept them.
Of course, the main reason was to save their lives. The previous impact had already shattered their defensive Spirit Treasures. Without the protection of Spirit Treasures, if they encountered danger again, they would likely perish.
While they were being affectionate in the underground passage, Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing and their group were standing by the window, looking at the deep pit in the distance. The giant hand had already retracted, but the danger remained, and the dark clouds above the sky were still rolling.
Jun Mengqing narrowed her eyes and watched for a long time, not seeing Lin Chen and the others emerge, and asked, puzzled, "What is their situation now?"
Nie Ling and the two Disciples beside her were also very curious. They had just seen Lin Chen directly abandon Junior Sister Li Mengran and Senior Sister Zhou Qiluo, but they didn't expect the two Senior Sisters to be blessed with good Luck and fall underground.
Gu Shengge's double pupils flickered with a faint light: "Lin Chen helped the two recover from their injuries and gave each of them three High Grade Spirit Treasures."
Under his double pupils, Gu Shengge saw their underground scene clearly.
Nie Ling and the others behind him felt puzzled upon hearing this. What exactly did the Saint mean by this? First betraying, then helping. How could one person's thoughts be so complex?
Jun Mengqing's gaze darkened slightly: "Then what is their situation?"
"Their Luck has dropped significantly, and they often stay in dangerous areas. I'm afraid they won't be able to survive and leave this place."
Everyone's expressions changed. Jun Mengqing said in a deep voice, "What a vicious method. Even at the brink of life and death, Lin Chen is still thinking of plundering Luck!"
Nie Ling's eyes flickered. She knew some things, so she told the two behind her about Saint Lin Chen's special method of plundering Luck.
Everyone looked at each other, but upon careful recollection, it was not difficult to find that women who had a close relationship with Saint Lin Chen either faded into obscurity, disappeared without a trace, or perished outside. It seemed none of them had a good end.
"Boom!"
Outside, another violent impact sound came. Thousands of thick tentacles descended from the sky, rampaging through the city, destroying all the surrounding buildings.
Some purple tentacles also fell underground, penetrating through the thick ground into the passage below.
Lin Chen and Zhou Qiluo had just settled down for a short while before they started fleeing frantically again. The tentacles almost blocked the entire hole below, rapidly rushing towards them.
They could only rush out to the surface, seeing the scene of the giant tentacles rampaging outside, their faces filled with terror.
In the current situation, they had nowhere to escape.
Zhou Qiluo's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "The palace in the center of the city seems to be unaffected, and there's still light inside. Perhaps that's the last refuge!"
Lin Chen and Li Mengran also looked in the direction of the palace, their eyebrows raised, and immediately fled in that direction.
