“Die!”
Chi Feng made his move and struck towards Lin Sheng. Even though he did not use his combat body, Chi Feng was a planetary lifeform. When his palm landed, a terrifying pressure pressed down on Lin Sheng from all directions.
Sensing this terrifying power, Lin Sheng grabbed the weakened Lan Jing.
“Go!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Sheng and Lan Jing actually disappeared instantly.
Boom.
The terrifying force shattered the dungeon at once. Chi Feng’s eyes were bloodshot as he roared, “How is this possible?”
However, no matter how he scanned with his mental power, he could not capture any aura of Lin Sheng and Lan Jing. It was as if Lin Sheng and Lan Jing had disappeared into thin air.
“Running? Where do you think you can run?”
Chi Feng stomped on the dungeon and shattered it. Then, he suddenly flew into the air and quickly deployed his combat body. His massive combat body was already larger than Planet Aquarius, stretching across the universe.
“Huh? A million kilometers away?”
Chi Feng’s body moved slightly, and he suddenly charged in a certain direction.
Buzz.
In the dark and cold universe, two figures staggered and appeared out of thin air. They were Lin Sheng and Lan Jing, who had warped through space.
“Spatial warp?”
Lan Jing was shocked. Although she had only undergone five life transitions, she had roamed the universe for decades. How could she not know that this was spatial warp? Lin Sheng actually had an artifact for spatial warp. There was no knowing how precious such an artifact was. It could save his life at critical moments, yet he was actually using it like this.
“Run!”
Lin Sheng did not have the time to explain now. He did have an artifact for spatial warp, and it was the final trump card his father, Lin Feng, had given him. It was originally intended for saving his life. If the other party let their guard down, Lin Sheng could even escape from a Venerable.
However, that was if Lin Sheng was alone, when he could warp billions of miles, or even further. But now, he was carrying the severely injured Lan Jing. This was not as simple as an additive effect.
That artifact could warp space, but with one more person, the effect was greatly diminished. They could only warp for a million kilometers. If they were discovered by Chi Feng, they would still be in danger.
Lin Sheng immediately deployed his combat body and fled in a frenzy with Lan Jing. However, just as he moved, he realized that a terrifying aura had suddenly appeared behind him.
“Chi Feng has caught up!”
Lin Sheng was also anxious. He had not expected Chi Feng to catch up so quickly.
“Lin Sheng, you actually have an artifact for spatial warp, but how many of such artifacts can you possibly have?”
Chi Feng’s voice was like thunder, rumbling and exploding. Even Lin Sheng could not help but be shaken. His combat body paused for a moment, and his speed clearly slowed.
However, even if it were not slowed, it was meaningless in front of a planetary lifeform. Lin Sheng was not Lin Feng. He had not comprehended any Laws. In the universe, comprehending Laws was even more difficult than becoming a planetary lifeform.
Hence, it was almost impossible to challenge above one’s level and contend with a planetary lifeform. Lin Sheng could not do this at all.
As Chi Feng’s combat body erupted, a huge palm blotted out everything, enveloping the space around Lin Sheng. For the first time, Lin Sheng felt the threat of death.
Even though he had experienced many dangers when wandering the universe in the past, he had never been completely defenseless like this. Moreover, even if he used all the methods at his disposal, it was futile.
Even the artifact his father had given had been exhausted.
“Chi Feng, if you kill Brother Sheng, you’ll never get the technique for the artifact!”
With power that erupted from nowhere, Lan Jing gave a sharp yell, making Chi Feng’s palm freeze for a moment.
However, with this yell, Chi Feng stopped. Instead of killing Lin Sheng, he grabbed him.
Lan Jing’s eyes were bloodshot as she enunciated, “Chi Feng, let Brother Sheng go. I’ll give you the technique!”
“Give me the technique?”
Chi Feng looked at Lan Jing in surprise, as if he was seeing her for the first time.
“Back then, you suffered so much torture, yet still refused to reveal any of the technique. Now, you’re willing to give me technique just for this Lin Sheng? Heh, looks like he’s quite special to you.”
Lan Jing endured the pain and said coldly, “My matter has nothing to do with you. Let Brother Sheng go, and I’ll give you the technique. If you dare to harm a single hair on Brother Sheng’s head, you can forget about ever getting the technique for the artifact!”
“Lan Jing, you…”
Lin Sheng had already given up struggling. In Chi Feng’s grasp, he did not even have the strength to struggle. He had never felt so insignificant.
He had lived on his home planet since he was young, and had always been the center of attention wherever he went. There was only one reason—he was the son of the Sage of Salvation!
Later, his father went from the Sage of Salvation to the Dominus Guardian, and humanity also went from their home planet to the universe. However, even after entering the universe, his father was still a high-up and powerful Dominus. Even when he went out to travel, he actually had many trump cards.
But this time, he felt how painful it was to be helpless and powerless. He could not even protect the person he loved the most.
Only at this moment did he realize how difficult things were for his father, and what a great man he was. He only wanted to protect Lan Jing, to protect one person, yet he was so powerless. Meanwhile, his father wanted to protect his home planet and all living beings in the entire Guardian Domain.
Only now did he realize how heavy this burden was.
However, this understanding came too late. He could only watch helplessly as Lan Jing tried to save him at all costs, even offering Chi Feng the technique of the artifact.
When Lan Jing was halfway through explaining the technique to control the artifact, Chi Feng put Lin Sheng down.
Lan Jing hurriedly came to Lin Sheng’s side and asked anxiously, “Brother Sheng, are you all right?”
Lin Sheng shook his head and said, “I’m fine. Lan Jing, it’s my fault you had to hand over the technique for the artifact.”
“It’s just an artifact. It’s nothing much. Without you, sooner or later, I wouldn’t have been able to withstand Chi Feng’s torture, and would have handed over the technique anyway. Handing over the technique in advance now also means I can suffer less.”
After Lan Jing gave the entire technique to Chi Feng, Lan Jing said with a tired expression, “Chi Feng, you’ve already obtained the technique. Can we leave now?”
“I’ve finally obtained the technique. Never expected it to be so easy. Heh, of course you can leave. I’ll send you off!”
Chi Feng laughed menacingly, then struck out with his palm without warning, enveloping Lan Jing and Lin Sheng within.
“Look out!”
Lin Sheng held on to Lan Jing, but could only watch helplessly as the huge palm landed.
Now that Chi Feng had obtained the technique, how could he really let Lin Sheng go? Even if he was in the Prime Dragon Domain and was not afraid of Lin Sheng’s background, letting Lin Sheng go would still bring trouble.
Then, he might as well kill them both! Moreover, Chi Feng had never thought of letting Lan Jing go in the first place.
“Brother Sheng, it’s my fault you’ll die too.”
“No, we won’t die!”
Lin Sheng suddenly raised his head. He seemed to have sensed something, and a trace of joy appeared on his face.
