The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2686 I almost died, I've become a demon in my heart!

"How many high-grade Grand Luo Immortals can your formation deal with at once?"

Kong Ling's expression revealed a hint of excitement; it was only the first day, and they had already obtained eight plaques!

Lin Chen and Shang Wenyan entered the killing game to help themselves; they didn't care about the rewards, meaning that all eight plaques counted as their own achievements.

It seems that after this deadly trap, I will be able to obtain the qualification to cultivate the Dragon Illusion God Technique.

Lin Chen is really amazing!

Thinking back to the first time I met him in Yin Yang Valley, what was his strength? He had no lineage, no background, yet he had come all this way to reach his current level.

He truly has a destiny with the immortals!

Kong Ling greatly admired Lin Chen, and since he owed Lin Chen a great favor for his ascension to immortality, he was willing to change bodies and return Lin Chen's father to him.

This can be considered a good deed, since with Lin Chen's current strength, if he's determined to deal with me, I probably won't be able to resist him at all.

Although he could resist to the death, he could also seize him and imprison him without time limit. This would be a lose-lose situation, with no benefit for either of them.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and replied, "If we're just talking about strength, as long as I'm in the formation and holding them back, I could probably trap ten or eight of them without any problem. But whether I can keep them here depends on their supernatural abilities or magical treasures."

Kong Ling nodded: "That's already pretty good. Although disciples from all the major sects will join forces, in the early stages they will mostly work as a unit of sect. In that case, the number of people won't be too many. With the Eight Desolate Fire Spirit Array, we can handle it all."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "We'll see. If it doesn't work out, we'll find a team and make a little bit of money. We'll just make it to the end safely and then call it a day."

As night fell, Lin Chen and his two companions did not find any more prey.

"We've fought several battles today, everyone get some rest and we'll fight again tomorrow."

Lin Chen summoned the Exquisite Pagoda and took the three of them inside.

This was the first time Kong Ling had witnessed the wonders of the Linglong Tower. He stared in astonishment at the world within the tower: "Is this the Ghost Tower with countless legends?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, it was only thanks to it that we were able to suppress the immortals who were chasing Yao Xuanji in the lower realm. Then, we managed to get through the ordeal and return to the immortal realm. Otherwise, the Desolate Realm might never have been able to ascend to immortality."

Kong Ling clicked his tongue in amazement: "So, it's probably even more powerful than the Human Emperor Seal, right? By the way, I haven't seen you use the Human Emperor Seal. Were you eliminated?" Lin Chen explained: "The Human Emperor Seal is quite powerful, but it pales in comparison to a Grand Luo Immortal. However, the Human Emperor Seal has a unique power against the Primordial Spirit, so it can be used occasionally."

Kong Ling exclaimed, "So, you obtained the Ghost Tower, and only then did you soar to great heights?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Its attack power isn't that great, but its defense is very strong. Moreover, the tower is a world of its own, which can block any sensing and tracking. If it weren't for it, I would probably be dead long ago."

The three of them each swallowed a pill and meditated to recover.

Just as the three were resting, a large barbarian group of at least twenty people swept across the sky, their terrifying divine senses sweeping across every inch of the ground like filters.

The exquisite pagoda stood quietly in a grove of trees, like a lifeless stone. Divine senses swept over it, but it did not react in the slightest.

Among the group was Hu Erlie, who had escaped with Lin Chen earlier. He scanned the surroundings with his divine sense, his face was cold and hard, and his eyes held a hint of madness.

The small team he had gathered earlier originally intended to search around and catch a few escapees, but they never expected to fall into the trap of three disciples of the Illusion Serpent Sect and almost get burned to a crisp. Even now, thinking back on it, he still can't help but feel lingering fear and apprehension!
I was so close to dying!
Thinking of Lin Chen, who was like a demon in the fire, Hu Erlie felt a shadow fall over his mind, a shadow that would bring him great trouble on his future path of cultivation.

Inner demon!

The best way to completely eliminate that shadow in your heart is to kill him!

Once he dies, all the terrifying impressions he left behind will vanish like smoke.

Even if you are like a demon in fire, so what? Didn't I still kill you?

Hurley was lucky; not long after escaping, he encountered a barbarian tribe that had just finished assembling, and this tribe was one of the strongest.

Hurlie joined them and recounted his experience, asserting that these individuals would inevitably become troublesome opponents for the barbarians in this deadly situation, and that if they were not eliminated early, they would certainly cause great damage to the barbarians.

Hu Erlie led the large group back in a roar, rolling back and forth in the central area like a plow, searching for traces of Lin Chen and the others.

However, Lin Chen and his two companions seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Hu Erlie stared at the endless night ahead, silently clenching his teeth.
