In the world of martial arts, one works tirelessly to attain enlightenment.

Chapter 111, Lin, who lacks martial ethics and is overly protective of her own.

Over the wilderness.

A shadowy hand emerged from the vortex, and Jian Linglong's broken cry echoed within the soul.

Lin Ran was caught up in the crisis and unable to respond immediately.

The ghostly hand pierced through his chest without any resistance, pinched a beating heart, and the icy breath stopped the heart from beating.

A chill ran through the curse clinging to Lin Ran's chest.

"Curse love!"

A faint voice echoed in my mind.

Lin Ran instantly became calm, all emotions vanished, and her consciousness became like that of a machine.

He activated the emergency response plan.

Eye Technique: Time!

Instantly, everything in sight turned gray-white, buying two seconds of time.

Lin Ran took a step back, letting the ghostly hand slash through her heart and free herself from its grasp.

Then, golden light appeared in the center of the collarbone, the palm of the right hand, and the base of the coccyx, and three portals appeared out of thin air. Immediately afterwards, a fourth portal appeared in the palm of the left hand.

Once the four gates are formed, they are opened simultaneously.

A vast and terrifying surge of blood energy erupted from the portal and rushed into Lin Ran's body.

The appearance of golden light and gates in the Eight Gates Formation actually serves as an attack boost.

With the gates wide open, the attack power is multiplied!

Lin Ran chose to increase the upper limit without hesitation.

Four gateways, four times the base attack.

With all three (pseudo-four) gates open, the boost is quadrupled once again!

The sixteen-fold attack multiplier applied to Lin Ran caused his forged physical body to begin to disintegrate.

At the moment of disintegration, the divine light of faith from Nangong Yu appeared, connecting all the disintegrating parts and taking the side effects in place of Lin Ran.

Lin Ran released the Demon Eye Cross Sword; its power had been exhausted when killing the fourth-tier ghost race, and it was not as powerful as his fist.

A second has passed.

Lin Ran raised her hand, her fingers ten centimeters away from the dark ghost hand.

Half a second remaining.

Instantaneous strike - craniotomy!

boom!

The punch struck the dark ghost hand, and time stopped continuing until all the punch's force landed on the ghost hand.

Time stop ends.

boom!

The dark ghost hand suddenly exploded, golden light transforming into a fist imprint that rushed into the vortex, and the sound of something being smashed could be faintly heard.

The effects of the curse haven't ended; calmness remains.

Lin Ran analyzed that this peak fourth-tier Shadow Clan member, even if he didn't die, would at least be seriously injured.

The distorted ripples disappeared, and the next moment a thick sword light pierced through the spot where the ripples had vanished.

After Jian Linglong noticed the anomaly, she rushed to provide assistance, but it was too late.

"Curse love!"

Two curses fell into Lin Ran and Jian Linglong's bodies.

The latter decisively accepted the curse, his consciousness instantly becoming extremely calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

Jian Linglong and Lin Ran exchanged a glance.

She waved her hand and grasped a sword aura, piercing it into Lin Ran's chest. The sword aura split into several parts, blocking the lacerated heart and temporarily replacing the muscles to provide the heart with the power to beat.

She then transformed into a sword beam, sweeping Lin Ran away and charging into the city.

"Curse!"

The curse descended upon Lin Ran, but it was to stabilize her physical body and prevent it from completely collapsing.

Lin Ran remained completely calm, showing no reaction whatsoever. After the four portals disappeared, he immediately used the four types of spiritual energy that he had not yet upgraded to heal his injuries, but he exhausted them in the blink of an eye.

The spirit, blood, and vitality have all completely disappeared.

Truly, the oil has run out and the lamp is burning out!

……

wilderness.

After Jian Linglong led Lin Ran away, several gazes crossed the void and descended upon this place.

A pair of merciless eyes materialized, analyzing the lingering aura of this place.

"Lin Ran, a human, has been identified. Her peak combat strength is at the peak of the fourth tier."

"The Shadow Clan assassin has been confirmed dead."

"Qi and blood have returned... the Eight Gates Formation! It's her disciple!"

After analysis, the eyes that appeared suddenly became chaotic and panicked.

Before they could react, space was torn apart, and a single eye looked over.

boom!

Four golden bolts of lightning descended from the sky, precisely striking four pairs of illusory eyes before disappearing along with them, their power tracing back to their original forms.

Lin glanced at Lin Ran, whose physical body was disintegrating, from afar. A few golden rays flew out from her pupils and entered Lin Ran's heart unnoticed.

The spatial rift disappeared, but a sound rang out.

"Human, you have crossed the line."

"You disagree?"

There was no sound from the other side, but they must have felt very frustrated.

……

Inside the building of Bafang City.

Jian Linglong transformed into sword energy and returned with Lin Ran.

As the divine light of faith was exhausted along the way, she used her sword intent to forcibly lock Lin Ran's physical body, preventing it from collapsing too quickly.

It's a pity that Ling Qiqi's healing ability was taken away, otherwise Lin Ran wouldn't have suffered such a terrible fate.

When everyone saw Lin Ran, they were momentarily stunned.

"Curse love!"

Zhou Yu immediately used a curse to temporarily block out everyone's emotions, leaving only reason, and the process began immediately.

Jian Linglong made Lin Ran stand upright, pressed one hand against Lin Ran's heart to maintain its activity, and sealed the residual power of the ghost hand within it.

Nangong Yu pressed his right hand against Lin Ran's back, and a phantom figure appeared behind her. The divine light of faith flowed smoothly into Lin Ran's body, quickly beginning to heal her wounds.

While there may be conflicts in faith, the connection between the divine light of faith and the recipient of faith can be even greater than that between the believer and the recipient.

Lin Ran's physical body has stabilized temporarily, but the aftereffects are still very strong.

Yan Lingfei waved her hand, conjuring a miniature Yan Emperor Death Arena. She then entered it with Meng Yu, Ling Qiqi, and Yun Zhu, and controlled it to connect with Lin Ran.

Through some adjustments, efforts were made to continuously supply power to Lin Ran, further offsetting any remaining weakness.

Zhou Yu glanced at Lin Ran, then pressed down on her shoulder to withdraw the side effects of the curse, preventing any accidents during the treatment process.

Xingluo held Lin Ran's hand and placed it on her chest. Her whole body emitted a light blue, starlight-like power that dispersed and fell into Lin Ran's body.

With everyone working together, Lin Ran, who was frantically probing the King of Hell, was slowly pulled back.

Fifteen minutes later.

Jian Linglong and Nangong Yu both breathed a sigh of relief. They had directly observed Lin Ran's condition and knew that they had finally pulled him back from the brink of death.

At this point, Lin Ran's self-healing speed had exceeded the rate at which her injuries were worsening.

The treatment continued, and Yan Lingfei removed the Yan Emperor Death Arena. The group swayed and almost lost their footing.

Xinglu reluctantly let go of Lin Ran's hand, carried Yan Lingfei and the others to the sofa, and activated the technology to help them recover.

Jian Linglong withdrew her sword energy first. Lin Ran's internal condition had stabilized. If the sword energy continued to exist, it would cause damage.

Next was Nangong Yu. She didn't withdraw her power until the divine light and human figure behind her had almost dissipated. By this time, Lin Ran had begun to recover noticeably.

Zhou Yu helped Lin Ran sit on the sofa, and then Xing Luo carefully cleaned Lin Ran and changed her clothes.

During this process, Zhou Yu did not come into contact with the curse, so no one experienced any emotional fluctuations.

Lin Ran didn't either; his consciousness was communicating with Lin.

Within the mental space.

Lin created a temporary mental vacuum space and pulled Lin Ran inside.

"How do you feel?"
