Chapter 656: Chapter 656: In Danger

"What if it’s Yin Sha Qi?"

Lin Chen had already flown behind the elder of the Red Soul Hall, and despite sensing two more elders from the Red Soul Hall coming to support and launching an attack on him from behind, he did not intend to hold back.

Hisss—

Two sharp swords pierced through Lin Chen’s arms from behind him, splattering fresh blood.

However, Lin Chen’s sword, filled with powerful Sword Qi, directly decapitated the head of the Red Soul Hall elder who was battling Yang Yuemin.

"Disciple!"

Yang Yuemin shouted upon seeing Lin Chen injured and immediately attacked the two elders of the Red Soul Hall who had ambushed Lin Chen with his sword, with Xu Ma’an and Li Hanyi rushing to support.

Buzz—

A powerful presence burst forth from Lin Chen, emanating the power of the Death Qi Mysteries and the Blue Lotus Divine Flame.

The two ambushing elders of the Red Soul Hall who sensed this power drastically changed their expressions and immediately retreated.

Instantly, a strong greenish-blue lotus flower appeared beneath Lin Chen’s feet—if they had retreated a moment later, they would have been burned to ash by Lin Chen’s death qi Blue Lotus Divine Flame.

"What a pity!"

Lin Chen chuckled coldly at the corner of his mouth, secretly relieved by their swift reaction.

At this moment, Li Chu was filled with rage because Lin Chen had once again killed an elder of the Red Soul Hall in his presence, which was something he could not tolerate.

He swung the blood-colored spear in his hand, and a blood-colored dragon appeared in the sky, bursting with powerful Yin Sha Qi. Li Chu, holding the spear, charged directly at Lin Chen.

The fire dragon on Li Chu’s spear was immensely powerful, and even several elders of the Red Soul Hall felt apprehensive.

Boom—

However, when the blood-colored dragon collided with Lin Chen’s death qi Blue Lotus Divine Flame, most of its power was blocked.

Lin Chen quickly drew his silver bow and arrow and shot towards the fire dragon on Li Chu’s spear.

Twang—

Twang—

The Thunder Chasing Arrows successively struck the head of the blood-colored dragon, causing it to crack. Only after firing thirteen arrows was the blood-colored dragon annihilated.

Lin Chen’s body had also been severely damaged, covered with wounds and cracks. Using the Thunder Chasing Arrows had backlash effects on him as well.

Due to the previous consumption, his body was already somewhat unable to endure. If it was his main body, his strong physique could quickly recover, even ignoring the injuries, but the Second Soul Division’s body was somewhat weaker.

Although it was also recovering from the injuries, the speed was far slower than that of his main body.

Lin Chen used the Ground Shrink Talisman Inscription to move twenty miles away, immediately took an elixir, and recovered his strength and injuries.

"Damn it, I’m running out of elixirs."

"If my main body doesn’t arrive soon, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on."

Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division looked at Li Chu and the other Red Soul Hall elders in the distance, his expression becoming increasingly grave.

Lin Chen risked injury and provoked Li Chu to ultimately kill three elders of the Red Soul Hall.

However, this did not alleviate the pressure on Xu Ma’an, Yang Yuemin, and the others much because there were seven Heavenly Human Realm experts here besides Li Chu.

"Ancestors and patriarchs, I, Xu Ma’an, the fifty-third Sect Master of the Jade Cauldron Sect, fear that I may fall here today."

"But I have tried my best. Although the Jade Cauldron Sect was destroyed in my hands, it was on the path to glory, not in decline."

At this moment, Xu Ma’an was battling against two Heavenly Human Realm experts. Although at a disadvantage, it was not easy for the two elders of the Red Soul Hall to defeat him easily.

Even though Xu Ma’an had not reached the Heavenly Human Realm, his tenacious resistance was very dissatisfying to the two.

Xu Ma’an had no regrets about the Jade Cauldron Sect, as its development was still quite good.

Were it not for Lin Chen’s emergence, how could their Jade Cauldron Sect ever achieve such glory?

His only regret was that Xu Lianyu had been without parents since childhood, and as a grandfather, he would not be able to witness Xu Lianyu becoming a wife, having children, and forming a family.

Xu Ma’an naturally understood Xu Lianyu’s feelings, but he felt that Lin Chen did not seem to have that in mind, being wholly devoted to the Martial Path.

On this point, Xu Ma’an also admired Lin Chen, but he always felt that this was not a matter of choosing between fish and bear’s paw for Lin Chen.

At this moment, Yang Yuemin, looking at Lin Chen, had no regrets either, considering taking on such an excellent disciple as her life’s greatest achievement.

Li Hanyi, Li Xuanming, and others also felt regretful, secretly thinking that the possibility of defeating Lin Chen in this lifetime seemed forever out of reach.

Lianyu was battling with a group of Martial Artists from the Red Soul Hall with tears in her eyes, uncertain whether she was frightened of the impending death or of the impossibility of being with Lin Chen forever.

However, Lianyu felt happy inside because even if they all died here, Lin Chen would still live well, for the Lin Chen before them was merely one of Lin Chen’s Soul Splits.

"Little one, will you remember me in the future?"

While battling with the Martial Artists of the Red Soul Hall, Zhao Yijing thought to herself, feeling a tinge of melancholy, because Lin Chen would perhaps no longer remember her.

In the distance, not only Xu Ma’an, Yang Yuemin, and the others felt despondent, the army of the Jade Cauldron Sect felt the same.

In the face of life and death, everyone had a moment of contemplation; they were thankful to be under Lin Chen’s command and to have achieved today’s accomplishments—they were all gifts from Lin Chen.

All of them decided that as Lin Chen’s subordinates, they must display the demeanor fitting of Lin Chen’s subordinates.

Everybody exchanged glances and decided that upon the breaking of the formation above their heads, they would engage in close combat with the army of the Red Soul Hall, making their last struggle.

However, just as everyone was preparing for their final fight, Lin Chen issued a command, ordering everyone to retreat into the protection of the defensive formation, including Xu Ma’an and all the army.

On hearing the order, the crowd was startled because if everyone retreated into the Defensive Array, with no one to resist the Red Soul Hall’s attack, the defensive formation would soon break.

Nevertheless, they all complied, for it was Lin Chen’s command.
