The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2155 Was I asking a pointless question?
"How big is the difference between the third and fifth realms?"

Inside the Exquisite Tower, Lin Chen hovered in front of the Dark Ancestral Dragon, earnestly asking, "Is there a way to victory?"

The Dark Ancestral Dragon's enormous dragon eyes were full of mockery: "What, you want me to fight a Great Luo Immortal at the Great Perfection for you? You might as well let me just smash my head against a wall and die..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Senior, you misunderstand. I already have Xiangxuan Realm experts under my command. I was just asking about the difference in strength for reference. I didn't mean to ask you to help."

The Dark Ancestral Dragon asked in surprise, "You subdued the Elephant Profound Realm?"

Lin Chen nodded: "By chance and a little bit of my scheming, not counting my wife and disciples, I have already subdued one Xiangxuan, two Pohuan, and two Tianyuan. Give me some more time, and perhaps I can add another Xiangxuan... The Three Saints Sect only has Yu Shoudao, who is at the fifth level, left, and he is my last barrier against the Three Saints Sect."

Surprise flashed in the Dark Ancestral Dragon's eyes: "Are you making a snowball effect, getting bigger and bigger?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I guess so. But even if they die, they can be reborn. So what they sold me is just this life right now. If I don't make good use of it and they die, then they will have nothing to do with me anymore."

"You were once a powerful figure standing at a high level, and you personally experienced that stage. Tell me about the specific differences between the third and fifth realms, so I can have a better understanding..."

The Dark Ancestral Dragon was silent for a few seconds before finally advising, "If you only have subordinates at the third level, I advise you to be cautious. Compared to those at the fifth level, the third level is practically a free gift; he can easily and decisively kill you all!"

"Instant kill?"

Lin Chen's pupils contracted slightly: "Is the difference really that big?"

The Dark Ancestral Dragon sighed, "Above the Great Luo realm, each realm is a different world. A difference of one realm is like the difference between heaven and earth. As you have seen, I am now barely at the third realm. It only takes me a moment to deal with Nangong Ye, while Nangong Ye can deal with someone at the first realm in about the same amount of time."

"If this is the case even when there is only one realm difference, then what about two realms? The difference in strength is simply incomparable. If you want to defeat Yu Shoudao by joining forces at the three realms, there are only two possibilities."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Please speak, senior."

"First, you used underhanded tactics on him, such as drugging him. However, after experiencing the fourth level of the Jade Flawless Realm, their bodies have a terrifying sensitivity to and resistance to drugs. It is very difficult to drug him. Moreover, once he realizes it, as long as he can still unleash his combat power instantly, he may kill you all instantly, or escape instantly, leaving you with no way to pursue him."

"Second, we can use some special treasure or a pre-arranged formation to limit his combat power to a certain level. However, such treasures are not something ordinary people can possess. As for formations, not to mention how difficult they are to obtain, the cost of setting up a formation is astronomical, not to mention the difficulty of actually operating it."

The Dark Ancestral Dragon concluded, "So, while there are methods, they are almost all very difficult to implement. At this level, if someone around you could easily kill you with a little medicine or a simple formation, what's the point of cultivating immortality?" Lin Chen was slightly disappointed: "So, there's basically no way?"

"Yes."

The Dark Ancestral Dragon answered crisply, "The best way to defeat a fifth-level Grand Luo Immortal is to find a Grand Luo Supreme Immortal to take action. This method is the most reliable!"

Lin Chen was speechless.

I already know this method, do you need to tell me?
After all that, you just asked a pointless question?

Well, this has made the difference in strength between different realms clearer, and made us aware of the drawbacks of using drugs, so we won't fall into the same trap in the future.

There was still some time before the Heavenly River Secret Realm closed. Lin Chen was currently surrounded by good fortune, and it would be a waste to just sit there. Lin Chen decided to go out for a stroll again and see if he could encounter any opportunities.

Fu Zongjing was recovering from his injuries and was temporarily unable to fight. Since that was the case, Lin Chen told the others to stay behind as planned and wait for the secret realm to end, while he quietly left with Nangong Ye and the others.

To others, Lin Chen and the others never appeared; everything seemed normal!
Lin Chen followed his heart and stayed away for several days.

Along the way, Lin Chen keenly noticed that his luck had really improved a lot, and he always managed to find valuable elixirs or other items unexpectedly.

Although the elixir was good, it was not what Lin Chen desired.

What he wanted wasn't a few valuable medicinal herbs, but an opportunity!

"boom!"

The earth-shattering noise startled Lin Chen, who was resting atop a mountain, awake.

He turned around abruptly, only to see a terrifying shockwave approaching from afar, causing all the mountain peaks to crumble like dominoes.
