The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3074 Just because he can't be killed doesn't mean I can't!

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the clone: ​​"How does it feel?"

The clone assessed its own condition and replied, "I've lost a lot of life force, but... thankfully, this monster isn't very strong, and the life force I just injected wasn't too much."

After a pause, the clone added, "To activate the formation in the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror, life force needs to be injected beforehand, and the amount of life force injected determines the power of the formation after activation."

"How much vitality needs to be injected to deal with a stronger opponent still needs to be tested multiple times."

Lin Chen understood: the more life force is injected into the formation within the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Realm, the greater its power will be.

However, it is still unclear how much needs to be injected, how much power it will unleash, and what the ratio should be.

Of course, there is also good news: Lin Chen's clone can use the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Realm. The effects of the loss of life force will only affect Lin Chen's clone and will not affect Lin Chen himself.

This is actually quite easy to understand. The clone technique that Lin Chen has mastered is a bloodline technique, which is very mysterious. The clone was originally formed from Lin Chen's essence and blood. It was created by consuming part of Lin Chen's life force and has a unique life, so it can control the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror.

The more essence and blood used to create a clone, and the more vitality it possesses, the higher the clone's realm and the stronger its combat power. Similarly, the power to control the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror can also be greater.

However, if such a clone were to die, Lin Chen would also be injured and weakened as a result.

After testing the Yin-Yang Immortal Slaying Technique, Lin Chen put away the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror and returned to the Linglong Tower.

Zhen Liuxue's gaze fell on Lin Chen: "How is it?"

Lin Chen nodded slightly: "I did a simple test, and it works fine. However, this thing damages life force, so it's best not to use it unless absolutely necessary."

Zhen Liuxue's eyes flickered with a hint of inexplicable anticipation: "If the controller is a Quasi-Saint, can it kill a Quasi-Saint?"

Lin Chen instantly knew what Zhen Liuxue was thinking and said with a wry smile, "I estimate it will be difficult. If it were easy to kill a Quasi-Saint, then Huo Tianyu might not have disappeared without a trace back then."

Zhen Liuxue thought for a moment: "Huo Tianyu is not a quasi-saint."

Lin Chen understood instantly.

To kill an enemy, the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror must first invest enough life force as fuel. The life force of a Quasi-Saint is incomparable to that of a non-Quasi-Saint; it is many times deeper. Even if a high-grade Great Luo Immortal sacrifices his own life force, he may not be able to kill a Quasi-Saint; he may only suffer a slight pain.

Huo Tianyu's inability to kill a Quasi-Saint does not mean that Zhen Liuxue cannot kill a Quasi-Saint.

If the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror is also useful to the Saint, then as long as Zhen Liuxue is willing to risk her life, she can use the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror to kill Si Dao Wang and avenge her master.

Zhen Liuxue was willing to give up her own life to kill Si Dao Wang, let alone sacrifice some of her life force.

Lin Chen did not rush to refuse Zhen Liuxue, but instead said gently, "If there is an opportunity later, we can try it out."

Zhen Liuxue breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay!"

She was somewhat worried that Lin Chen would not agree to her using the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror. It wasn't that she was worried that Lin Chen would be stingy, but rather that Lin Chen was worried that she and Si Dao Wang would both suffer heavy losses and would not agree to her desperate approach.

Lin Chen was in a good mood. Although he was trapped in the Demon Realm and forced to take refuge in the Great Wilderness Palace, not knowing when he would be able to return to the Immortal Realm, finding the Yin-Yang Immortal Slaying Technique was still a considerable gain. Although this thing had many side effects, keeping it on him would be a powerful weapon, and it might come in handy sometime.

Zhen Liuxue took out a pair of small black arrows from before and waved them at Lü Shuyi: "Tell me about it."

Lu Shuyi answered frankly, "This is the Heartless Mother-Child Arrow, a top-grade spiritual treasure with immense power. Normally, you can charge the spiritual energy within it, and it can be released directly when necessary. Its power is astonishing. Most importantly, releasing the Heartless Mother-Child Arrow does not require circulating spiritual energy, making it difficult for people to defend against."

"A close-range sneak attack is easy to succeed. If you weren't a quasi-saint, you definitely wouldn't be able to withstand this arrow. Even if you didn't die, you would be seriously injured..."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Is this the thing that killed me?"

Zhen Liuxue nodded and tossed the Heartless Mother-Child Arrow to Lin Chen: "Yes, she raised her hand and you were shot to pieces."

Lin Chen immersed his consciousness into it and quickly realized its ingenuity.

The Heartless Mother-Child Arrow contains an array that can absorb a large amount of spiritual energy, which is what Lü Shuyi referred to as "charging." In peacetime, energy can be added to it, making the Heartless Mother-Child Arrow essentially a sleeve arrow held close to the forearm. It can be activated instantly through subtle manipulation, making it impossible to defend against.

If this magic weapon is used in a direct battle, it is not particularly amazing. At most, it is of very good quality. But apart from that, it is not much different from other combat magic weapons. However, it is very easy to succeed in close-range sneak attacks.

Aside from the Heartless Mother-Child Arrows, there was also that magic weapon resembling an ancient tortoise shell, which was also a top-grade spiritual treasure with extremely powerful defensive capabilities. However, since Lin Chen had the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, he naturally had no need for this tortoise shell.

Besides these, Lin Chen also seized many other powerful magical artifacts and numerous rare and precious materials, but these things were of little use to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen now possesses two innate spiritual treasures, not to mention top-grade spiritual treasures. Although these things are quite good, he has no use for them. However, he can give them to others, and if anyone needs them, they can refine them themselves.

After a round of questioning, Lin Chen asked about some old matters, but none of them were of any particular value.

"Isolate her and imprison her temporarily."

Lin Chen was very careful, worried that Lü Shuyi had tampered with the Yin-Yang Immortal Slaughtering Technique and might try to kill him before she died, so he spared her life for the time being.

Since she's already inside the Linglong Tower, there's no way she can escape, so there's no need to rush to kill him.

Thus, the journey to Sixian City can be considered complete.

Although Lin Chen visited Lü Shuyi, no one knew what they talked about. He left after the visit, and Lü Shuyi disappeared afterward. No one would connect Lü Shuyi's disappearance with Lin Chen.

The secret palace was a secret, and Zhao Yang and Chen Song would not reveal it for the sake of their lives. They would even try to absolve themselves of responsibility and completely conceal the secret.

Lin Chen embarked on his journey home in high spirits, and returned to the Great Wilderness Palace smoothly all the way.

Lin Chen had just entered the Great Wilderness Palace and hadn't stayed long when the head guard, Shi Haoyu, arrived at the Dawn Camp with a cold face.

"The Palace Master wants to see you!"

Lin Chen had promised the Palace Master of the Grand Palace that he would do something for her. He had barely settled in when this person arrived. Clearly, someone had been watching him and would report back as soon as he returned.

Is the palace master in such a hurry?
