"Amulet!"
Lin Chuan's eyes narrowed, his mind racing!
He appeared unprepared, but in reality, he was well-prepared. Under his precise control, the golden shield shifted horizontally in an instant, firmly blocking the path of the yellow light!
"clang-!!"
A deafening explosion!
The yellow light slammed into the golden shield, unleashing a powerful burst of spiritual energy that caused the golden light on the shield's surface to ripple violently.
The yellow light was blasted back.
Behind the bushes.
A blue figure slowly walked out.
The yellow light flew back to his side, the aura faded, revealing a small, exquisite yellow throwing knife that emitted a heart-pounding aura, slowly circling around him.
The newcomer was a middle-aged man in his thirties, his face covered with crisscrossing, ferocious scars. He had narrow eyes, a hooked nose, and tightly pursed lips, and exuded a strong, bloodthirsty aura. His cultivation level was clearly at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining!
"Feng Yue?" The woman in white frowned slightly upon seeing him, her tone clearly displeased. "What do you mean by this? Are you trying to steal my prey?"
The scarred man, Feng Yue, twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hehe, Zhou Bao, didn't you just say—not to kill this person?"
I just didn't want to waste it.
"I was just teasing him! Who said I wasn't going to kill him?" Zhou Bao seemed to have his competitive spirit ignited, letting out a cold snort as he turned his gaze back to Lin Chuan. "This man is mine now!"
As the two of them fought over it like it was prey, Lin Chuan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.
Even a clay figure has a bit of fire in it.
Besides, it's him!
He had previously adhered to the principle of "it's better to avoid trouble" and was unwilling to get easily involved in the chaotic battle in the original story, but that did not mean he was truly afraid of the two people in front of him!
However, his anger did not cloud his judgment.
He calmly analyzed the situation: if he were to take action now, he had to ensure that both Feng Yue and Zhou Bao were killed, and that neither of them could escape!
These two individuals come from the Hidden Moon Sect and the Heavenly Palace Fortress, respectively, and have extraordinary backgrounds. If either of them escapes, the news will spread, and they may face retaliation or punishment from their respective powerful forces or family elders when they leave the Crimson Forbidden Land.
The Lin family is now at the bottom among cultivation families and cannot withstand any difficulties from any important figures.
"So what does that mean now?"
Feng Yue crossed his arms and looked at Zhou Bao with a leisurely air.
"Of course I'll do it!"
Zhou Bao said arrogantly, seemingly about to vent his dissatisfaction with having his prey stolen on Lin Chuan.
With a flick of her sleeve, two beams of white light shot out, aiming straight for Lin Chuan's face.
Lin Chuan was prepared. With a flash of light, the golden shield easily blocked the two beams of white light (which seemed to be some kind of flying needle-like magical artifact).
It makes two crisp "ding-ding" sounds.
"A top-tier defensive magic artifact? Not bad."
Seeing this, Zhou Bao didn't get angry but laughed, his interest growing even stronger.
She immediately took the initiative and used the white flying sword she had used earlier to stab at Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan snorted coldly, and the Azure Cloud Sword transformed into a streak of azure light to meet the attack. The two top-tier flying swords clashed in the air, their sword energies crisscrossing.
"A top-tier flying sword? Hmph, too bad—"
Zhou Bao's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he lightly flipped his free left hand.
The next moment, a small, palm-sized bronze mirror with an antique design appeared in her palm.
It is one of her signature magical artifacts—the Azure Condensation Mirror!
She aimed the mirror at the Azure Cloud Sword, which was locked in combat in the air, and infused it with her magic power. The mirror immediately emitted a soft blue light, instantly enveloping the Azure Cloud Sword.
The next moment, a strange scene unfolded.
The Azure Cloud Sword seemed to be stuck in an invisible quagmire. Its spiritual light faltered, and it stopped spinning in mid-air. No matter how Lin Chuan urged it, it could not move forward or backward even an inch, as if it had been frozen in place!
"As expected, the Azure Condensation Mirror exists."
Lin Chuan understood; in the original story, this mirror was specifically designed to counter magical artifacts, capable of temporarily immobilizing them. However, he didn't show any panic. Was simply immobilizing one of his magical artifacts enough?
With a thought, another crimson flying sword flew out of his storage bag.
It slashed at Zhou Bao with a scorching heat.
Upon seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Zhou Bao's eyes.
With her other hand, she revealed another magical artifact—a fist-sized, crystal-clear pink crystal ball!
She raised the crystal ball above her head and cast a spell.
The crystal ball immediately emitted a bright red light, began to spin rapidly on its own, and sprayed out streams of viscous pink liquid.
The liquid quickly gathered and formed a pink liquid cloud about ten feet in size above her head, constantly churning and obscuring the sky above her.
"Go!" Zhou Bao pointed at Lin Chuan's crimson flying sword, and a small wisp of the liquid cloud immediately separated and flew over as if it were alive.
Lin Chuan knew the power of this pink liquid; the original text described it as having strong corrosive properties, capable of damaging or even dissolving magical artifacts.
He dared not delay and quickly manipulated his crimson flying sword to fly back and avoid the liquid.
At the same time, his mind raced, and he glanced at Feng Yue, who had been watching him intently but had not made a move.
"Now!"
A glint flashed in Lin Chuan's eyes. He seemed to be overwhelmed by Zhou Bao's endless stream of magical artifacts, but he secretly made a hand seal, and a beam of green light shot out silently from his sleeve!
It was the superior-grade weapon for trapping enemies—the Azure Rope—that I obtained from Senior Brother Lu's belongings!
This rope has a similar effect to the Dragon-Trapping Ring, but its power is far inferior to the Dragon-Binding Ring.
The green rope moved with incredible speed, like a serpent emerging from its hole, instantly covering several meters in an instant. Before Zhou Bao could react, it had already wrapped around the protective aura surrounding her and quickly tightened!
"Hmm? You think a mere high-grade magic artifact can trap me?"
Zhou Bao was taken aback for a moment, then felt that the binding force from the green rope was far less than expected, and couldn't help but sneer.
The magical power within his body surged, ready to shake off this "overestimating one's abilities" restraint.
At this moment, her attention was mostly drawn to the two flying swords that Lin Chuan was "panicking" to control and the golden defensive magic artifact in front of him.
He didn't pay much attention to this mediocre weapon for trapping enemies, and was even a little overconfident. He only maintained the most basic protective aura and did not use any stronger defensive measures.
however.
Just as Zhou Bao was channeling his magical power, and the green rope was stretched to the point of shimmering with spiritual light and about to break, Feng Yue, who had been coldly observing from the side, made a move!
His eyes flashed with a fierce light; he had been waiting for this opportunity!
He had already noticed that Lin Chuan's golden shield was incredibly defensive and had been on guard in secret. Zhou Bao, on the other hand, was temporarily restrained by an "ordinary" magic weapon and had not yet used his defensive magic weapon. This was the perfect opportunity to launch a sneak attack!
"die!"
Feng Yue grinned maliciously. The small yellow dagger talisman that had been hovering beside him suddenly burst out with dazzling yellow light, transforming into a yellow lightning bolt that shot straight at Zhou Bao's back with a terrifying speed far exceeding that of ordinary magic weapons!
The yellow dagger Fu Bao was incredibly fast; it was upon Zhou Bao almost the instant he sensed danger!
"Sizzle—!"
The condensed yellow blade light, as if piercing through a thin sheet of paper, easily tore apart the ordinary-quality trapping magic weapon, the Azure Rope.
Immediately afterward, it pierced through Zhou Bao's protective spiritual light, and finally, with unparalleled precision, it pierced through Zhou Bao's back heart and emerged from his chest!
The sneer on Zhou Bao's face froze instantly, his eyes filled with extreme astonishment, confusion, and horror.
Before she could even scream, she felt a chill in her chest, all her strength drained away, and her consciousness sank rapidly into darkness.
With a "thud," this wealthy elite of the Hidden Moon Sect, who possessed numerous magical artifacts, collapsed to the ground, his face filled with resentment and confusion, lifeless.
Feng Yue struck successfully, and the yellow dagger Fu Bao flew back in a circle. He didn't even glance at Zhou Bao's corpse; his cold gaze, like that of a venomous snake, was fixed firmly on Lin Chuan.
"Now, it's your turn."
He licked his lips, his scarred face contorting into a bloodthirsty grin.
