211: Chapter 209: Lin Chen begged for mercy, but was still killed!

Gu Shengge looked down at him, once again condensing a lightning hand seal. Dense electric arcs slowly descended, like chains, binding Lin Chen's limbs and lifting him up.

Within the lightning barrier, Gu Shengge narrowed his eyes and swept a indifferent gaze around: "Actually, I came to kill you from the start. It was only because Jun Mengqing's identity was special that I kept feigning civility with you. But now, with the internal strife between the Saint and Saintess, if one dies, there's no way to investigate it deeply."

Lin Chen, bound and feeling the approach of death, continuously called out to the System in his Sea of Consciousness.

"[Host, at this point, make one last desperate attempt. This System will forcibly raise your cultivation to the Dao Conjoining Realm. Whether you can defeat Gu Shengge is up to fate!]

"Dao Conjoining Realm! That's great! If I'm in the Dao Conjoining Realm, I can definitely deal with him!"

He shouted excitedly in his mind. Gu Shengge scoffed, "A trash like you, even in the Dao Conjoining Realm, is still no match for me. You might as well calm down and just accept death."

Gu Shengge spoke indifferently, but his actions were extremely ruthless. A violent purple lightning bolt suddenly condensed into a long spear, piercing towards Lin Chen's glabella, exceptionally vicious.

Lin Chen was alarmed and quickly gathered all his cultivation, forming a golden barrier above his head, upon which divine light flowed and divine runes shimmered.

"Bang!"

The lightning spear struck the barrier, making Lin Chen's eyes roll back and his head throb as if it would explode at any moment.

It was at this moment that Lin Chen felt his cultivation soaring. The System forcibly elevated his cultivation to the Dao Conjoining Realm.

At this level, one was a powerful figure no matter where they were.

In an instant, Lin Chen felt as if he had grasped all the Dao of Heaven and Earth. His body suddenly exerted force, shattering the lightning chains that bound him.

Around him, Law surged, and the sound of the Great Dao rumbled. A Dao Conjoining Realm expert's comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth reached a certain depth, allowing him to stir the general trend of Heaven and Earth with every move.

After his cultivation was raised by the System, Lin Chen regained his confidence. He looked at Gu Shengge, a mocking smile on his face.

"Heh heh, Gu Shengge, you haven't reached the Dao Conjoining Realm yet, have you! Now, it's my turn!"

He raised his hand, and Law converged, forming a massive hand of Law. As it took shape, Heaven and Earth resonated, and the general trend crushed down, as if overturning the world.

He also condensed a massive hand of Law, tearing through the lightning, and suspended it above Gu Shengge's head. His purpose was simple: to use the same method to retaliate against Gu Shengge and wash away the humiliation of being controlled by him just now.

Facing the descending massive hand of Law, Gu Shengge's expression was indifferent, and his heavy pupils condensed with endless divine light.

Bang bang bang!

Several beams of heavy pupil divine light shot out, their violent, scorching energy slamming into the energy barrier in the sky.

The heavy pupil divine light inherently contained the energy of the Great Dao, instantly blasting several large, transparent holes through the massive hand of Law, completely unlike his earlier suppressed and pathetic state.

This scene instantly enraged him, and his face turned terribly gloomy.

Gu Shengge opened a spatial passage in front of him and stepped in, appearing above the massive hand of Law the next moment, heading straight for Lin Chen above.

Lin Chen was full of shock. It was truly unexpected that Gu Shengge could evade the suppression of the massive hand of Law.

He focused his gaze and struck continuously. The Great Dao Law in his hands flickered, condensing millions of Law divine blades, which suddenly unleashed, roaring to envelop all areas around Gu Shengge and pierce towards him.

Gu Shengge's expression suddenly changed, and divine light flickered in his eyes. The twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits moved in unison, soaring into the air and hovering around Gu Shengge.

Above the firmament, those flickering Law divine blades descended, blocked by the twelve towering Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits. Lin Chen's proud attack, under the twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits, couldn't even break through.

His face was full of ferocity as he roared, "Why! Why! I, this Saint, have clearly broken through to the Dao Conjoining Realm and can manipulate the Great Dao Law, yet why am I still unable to suppress you, who can only use the Law of Heaven and Earth!"

Gu Shengge scoffed disdainfully. Time, Space, Wood, Metal, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, and Weather—these twelve supreme Laws, if considered individually, indeed cannot contend with the energy of the Great Dao.

However, these Law attributes now had Primordial Spirit evolution. The twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits were the supreme Laws themselves. Lin Chen merely borrowed the Law of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, yet he dared to act ferociously before the Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits!

The twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits resonated, simply standing behind Gu Shengge gave off an immense sense of oppression.

Inside Lin Chen's body, the System's words were somewhat incoherent.

"[Host, this person's situation is truly strange. Although you are one Realm higher, his combat power is not weaker than yours!]

Lin Chen angrily said, "At this point, does this Saint not know? What this Saint wants to know now is how to kill this guy!"

"[Host, the System estimates a 20% chance of victory. The odds are too low. It is recommended that the Host immediately flee now!]

Hearing the System's suggestion, Lin Chen was incredibly furious. He had paid a great price to reach the Dao Conjoining Realm, yet he could only flee, unable to even heavily injure the opponent. What a loss!

As he thought this, his gaze swept around, seemingly searching for a way to escape.

Gu Shengge, seeing his appearance, laughed, "Your System is quite a good System. Even at this point, it hasn't chosen to abandon you, but instead wants to take you and flee together. That's quite good."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen angrily retorted, "Gu Shengge, don't get complacent! Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, don't bully a young man for being poor!"

Gu Shengge sneered, "The last person who told me that has grass nine zhang high on his grave!"

After he finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, the twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits quickly shot out, landing in all directions Lin Chen could escape, blocking him in.

"Today, you won't be able to leave no matter what."

Gu Shengge and the twelve Ancestral Witch Primordial Spirits resonated, and the Law patterns condensed around Lin Chen were instantly dispelled, and all the general trends of Heaven and Earth he controlled dissipated.

He was like an isolated island, cut off from all contact with the outside world.

At this moment, the unwillingness and anger in Lin Chen's heart finally collapsed. He gritted his teeth, as if making a huge concession: "Gu Shengge! Let our grievances end here! I will no longer covet Jun Mengqing, nor will I deliberately target you. All past grievances are canceled, and I will make a Heavenly Dao vow never to trouble you again!"

In his opinion, this was a sign of submission and surrender, and Gu Shengge should be satisfied.

His voice was loud enough for Jun Mengqing and Nie Ling below to hear.

Nie Ling exclaimed in surprise: "That's great, Young Master Gu won! And the Saint will never bother you and Young Master Gu again..."

Nie Ling smiled suggestively. Ordinarily, Jun Mengqing might have been happy, but now...

She looked indifferent and said bitterly, "He's definitely not doing it for me."
