Chapter 68 - 68 Trying to Escape? Too Late!
68 Trying to Escape? Too Late!
Luo Yi had immersed himself in the Quicksand Saber Manual for many years and had long cultivated this martial technique to Mastery.
Once it was used, the saber beam was like a sandstorm in the desert. It was fierce and endless, covering the sky and earth as it enveloped Lin Shen!
Lin Shen’s expression didn’t change. He opened his mouth and let out a long roar. A surging sound wave swept out and collided heavily with the saber light that filled the sky. Both of them exploded!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Shen didn’t retreat but advanced instead. He pounced forward and engaged in close combat with Luo Yi in the blink of an eye!
As a Long Breath Stage cultivator, Luo Yi believed in terms of cultivation and combat experience, he was enough to crush Lin Shen, who was only at the ninth level of Qi Transformation and was only a student.
But when they really started fighting, he realized he had underestimated Lin Shen.
Lin Shen’s martial techniques were so exquisite that he had far exceeded the level of ordinary Qi Transformation cultivators.
He had reached Perfection in both Shadows and Blazing Sun Palm and even knew a powerful sound-type martial technique!
It was hard to imagine how a young man who was not even 20 years old could cultivate to such an exquisite level while mastering three powerful martial skills at the same time.
What shocked Luo Yi, even more, was the martial arts skills that Lin Shen had displayed in the battle. He didn’t look like a student who had just graduated from an ordinary school at all.
“What’s going on with this guy?”
Luo Yi was bewildered.
In fact, the moment the battle began, Lin Shen had already switched his talent to Superior Martial Arts.
[Superior Martial Arts: Martial Technique Cultivation Speed+100%, Martial Technique Power+50%, Combat Skills+50%]
The bonus effect brought about by his talent allowed Lin Shen to hold his ground even when facing a Long Breath Stage cultivator.
As a result, Luo Yi even had a feeling that if he hadn’t had his formidable weapon, he might not have been Lin Shen’s match!
This made Luo Yi very angry, and he attacked even more mercilessly.
He didn’t believe he would lose to a young man who wasn’t even 20 years old!
At this moment, Lin Shen suddenly retreated.
Luo Yi was slightly stunned. When he regained his senses, he snorted and chased after Lin Shen without hesitation.
“Trying to escape? It’s too late!”
“I didn’t say I was running away.”
Lin Shen smiled.
The reason why he fought Luo Yi head-on was mainly to test the gap between him and a true Long Breath Stage cultivator.
He was very satisfied with the result.
Excluding the effect of the saber, he was already on par with an expert at the first level of the Long Breath Stage!
Since he had already gotten the answer he wanted, Lin Shen naturally didn’t want to keep fighting with Luo Yi.
He was unarmed right now. Unless he summoned his clones, he could at most repel Luo Yi and not kill him.
Fortunately, his clone wasn’t his only trump card!
With a flip of his wrist, a token filled with rune stones appeared in Lin Shen’s palm.
Holding the token, Lin Shen quickly chanted an incantation.
In an instant, the void in front of him distorted, and a large number of ripples appeared out of thin air. The cat general placed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and slowly walked out.
“The cat general!”
Luo Yi’s expression changed drastically when he saw this. He looked at the token in Lin Shen’s hand in shock.
“God Seeking Token! Dai Geng and Hao Tu died in your hands!”
Lin Shen raised his eyebrows and quickly realized Luo Yi was talking about the two criminals who ambushed him that night.
In that case, those two people were also hired by the new boss that Luo Yi mentioned just now!
Lin Shen was enlightened.
He finally understood why the two of them had attacked him. It turned out they had taken a fancy to his body and treated him as prey.
“What an undeserved calamity…”
Realizing that he was just unlucky that night and had been treated as prey, Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel speechless.
However, he quickly composed himself and said solemnly to the cat general,
“Divine Lord, I’ll have to trouble you!”
“No worries.”
The cat general nodded gently and patted the hilt of the sword at his waist.
In an instant, the sword vibrated and buzzed.
Amidst the trembling sound, a beam of light suddenly flew up. It pierced through the void like a bolt of lightning and flew toward Luo Yi.
Luo Yi’s expression changed instantly.
He had long heard of the cat general’s God Seeking Token. He knew the strength of this clone depended on the number of rune stones lit up on the God Seeking Token.
In that glance just now, Luo Yi had seen the number of luminating rune stones on the token in Lin Shen’s hand.
There were a total of five!
In other words, the cat general’s clone was at least at the fifth level of the Long Breath Stage!
It wasn’t an existence that Luo Yi could fight against at all!
Without any hesitation, Luo Yi retreated and made the decision to escape.
At the same time, the Military Bugs, who had been standing motionlessly at the back, charged at the cat general in unison, wanting to stop him and buy time for Luo Yi to escape.
Unfortunately, just as Luo Yi turned around and before he could run far, he suddenly felt a flash in front of him. Lin Shen had already blocked his path and was looking at him with a faint smile.
“Trying to escape? It’s too late!”
Luo Yi had just said the same thing a moment ago. Now that it came out of Lin Shen’s mouth, it became rather sarcastic.
Luo Yi was so angry that his face turned green. He shouted angrily and swung his saber at Lin Shen, wanting to force him back so that he could escape.
Lin Shen was fearless and dodged to meet the attack.
The Protection Talisman on him still had most of its effect left. It was enough to offset the sharpness of Luo Yi’s weapon in a short period of time, so Lin Shen wasn’t afraid.
In just a few breaths of time, the battle on the other side had ended.
The Military Bugs were first slaughtered by Lin Shen, and there were only about a hundred of them left. Now that they were facing the stronger cat general, the outcome was obvious. In the blink of an eye, they were completely slaughtered by the cold sword light.
After dealing with the Military Bugs, the cat general rushed toward Luo Yi without stopping.
When he saw this scene from the corner of his eye, Luo Yi instantly felt a chill run down his spine. He was so frightened that his scalp went numb.
If the cat general and Lin Shen joined forces, how could he survive?
At the thought of this, Luo Yi was terrified and shouted anxiously,
“Wait a minute, Lin Shen!! We can talk about it!”
“Okay.” Lin Shen smiled. “Tell me who sent you first.”
Luo Yi’s expression froze, and he hurriedly said, “I’ve made a law contract with them. If their identities are exposed, I’ll immediately lose my life!”
The effect of the law contract was irrefutable. Once it was made, the law would be established. It couldn’t be faked at all.
If Luo Yi had really made a law contract to not reveal the secret of the organization behind him, he would definitely not be able to say it.
The moment he said the first word, he would be dead!
“Then there’s nothing to talk about.”
“I’m telling the truth!”
Luo Yi was flustered and exasperated. In a moment of distraction, he made a wrong move and was almost beheaded by the cat general. Instantly, he became even more terrified.
“I can give you whatever you want. What do you want? Money? Martial techniques? Or pills?”
Lin Shen was unmoved. He wouldn’t trade with a jackal. Otherwise, no one knew when the jackal would bite back.
The best way was to kill this jackal for good!
