The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1400 Refining Sword Bones, the Path Has No End

It must be said that Meng Gongxin's choice was very much in line with Lin Chen's consistent thinking.

Can a person win for a lifetime?
Losing isn't the end of the world; the important thing is that even if you lose, you can escape and have a chance to make a comeback.

If you can win once and lose a hundred times and still escape, that's fine. You'll always win next time. But if you win a hundred times and lose once, and can't escape, then you're completely finished. There's no future for you.

The Light Chasing Boots, a speed-enhancing magical artifact, can greatly increase movement speed. When combined with one's Shrinking Earth Technique, the speed will be multiplied.

The Qilin Cloak is a defensive magical artifact. A lifelike Qilin is engraved on the black cloak. It is said to be made from the true soul of a Qilin and can provide great defense. Moreover, it can summon the true soul of a Qilin to fight, and its combat power is comparable to that of a true immortal. As for how long it can fight, that depends on the strength of its owner.

The Great Teleportation Token is an escape magic item. This Great Teleportation Token is incomparable to the Great Teleportation Token that Lin Chen used in the Wilderness Realm before. Or rather, the Great Teleportation Token used in the Wilderness Realm can be said to be a replica. The effect is similar, but the efficacy is far inferior.

With the Great Teleportation Order activated, unless the opponent possesses extraordinary abilities, they can ignore illusions and traps, teleporting three hundred miles in a specific direction, making it a true escape artifact.

"Thank you. With these three magical treasures, I'm much more confident in escaping."

Seeing Lin Chen smiling happily, Meng Gongxin said with a smile, "Safety first. You are still young, there is no need to compete with others for short-term gains. In time, how many people can compare to you?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's what I think too."

After bidding farewell to Meng Gongxin, Lin Chen returned to Tianjian Peak and told Su Wu about his impending departure.

Su Wu said lazily, "It's good to go out for a walk. There's no way out in asceticism. All the geniuses who have made a name for themselves in history have gone through all kinds of dangers and obtained all kinds of opportunities. None of them have truly achieved success through their own asceticism."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Then, Fifth Uncle, why don't you go out for a walk?"

Su Wu laughed and said, "My talent is limited, and this is how my life will be. I am all alone, without relatives or friends. Going out is just the same, so I might as well stay here and find some peace and quiet."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I'll take those four people with me. I'll take two with me this time and leave two behind. If anything happens, just tell them to do it."

Su Wu nodded: "They all ate Immortal Essence Pills to extend their lives by ten thousand years. They are still a little short of becoming immortals. They need to undergo a tribulation of lightning to temper their bodies and replace them with immortal spiritual energy before they can truly become immortals."

Lin Chen casually asked, "This tribulation lightning is probably different from the normal tribulation lightning for ascension, right? People at their level can no longer trigger a tribulation lightning..."

Su Wu smiled and said, "That's the difficulty. But the world is vast, and there are always some unique places. For example, Thunder Cave is full of thunder power, which is very suitable for their situation. Of course, there are other ways as well. It all depends on fate." Lin Chen was not in a hurry. He had already fulfilled his promise to them and had no debt to them. He would not deliberately help them. If there was such an opportunity, Lin Chen would go along with it and help them out.

"You can drink your tea slowly, I'll go and ponder it some more."

Lin Chen returned indoors, took out the peculiar stone tablet, and began to study it.

Ordinary scorpions can grow into powerful beings capable of contending with human immortals by eating just a little powder. If I were to absorb all the special substances from this entire stone tablet, how strong would my body become?
The stone tablet was made of very hard material, but Lin Chen casually took out a captured battle axe and chopped off a small piece of it without any trouble.

It wasn't as hard as I expected.

Lin Chen sat cross-legged, holding the stone that resembled raw ore in his hand, and channeled his energy according to the method of refining sword bones to absorb the essence of black iron.

Soon, Lin Chen felt a subtle change in the stone in his hand.

Lin Chen seemed to have established a mysterious connection with it. Its interior was like a starry sky, with bright stars shining in the dark night sky, like a galaxy.

As Lin Chen circulated the refining technique, the bright stars seemed to be pulled by a black hole, moving rapidly and eventually leaving the stone and entering Lin Chen's body. Then, under Lin Chen's control, they entered the finger bone of his index finger.

Lin Chen was overjoyed; it actually worked!
How's the effect?

Whatever, let's try it first.

If an ordinary scorpion can become so powerful, then I am much better off than a scorpion. Surely a scorpion can withstand it, but I can't?
In one day, Lin Chen absorbed all the special minerals from that stone. The stone, which was originally very hard and radiated a dark luster, has now become dull and lifeless, like a lump of yellow earth.

Lin Chen gently squeezed the stone, and it instantly shattered into countless grains of sand.

Lin Chen raised his hand and examined his index finger.

The bones, which were originally blood red with gold intertwined, have now turned completely black, even blacker and shinier than the scorpion shell that Lin Chen had seen!
Lin Chen waved his left hand, and an extremely sharp sword aura sliced ​​through his right index finger, cutting through flesh and bone with a crisp clang.

Unscathed!
