Chapter 772: Chapter 772: Safe Return

Whoosh—

Lin Chen employed the Qiankun Escape Earth Talisman and instantly vanished from the spot.

Regarding this, the Dragon Fang Instrument Spirit, although feeling somewhat disgruntled and embarrassed, did not say much.

It had already sensed that the Creation Realm strength member of the Dark Demon Race was rapidly approaching and about to arrive.

As for Lin Chen’s actions, the Dragon Fang naturally wouldn’t say much, as its pride was already greatly hurt. If it tried to explain anything further, it would only be even more embarrassing.

Should Lin Chen question why it, with all its boasts, did not use its power to deal with the Creation Realm’s Dark Demon adversary, the Dragon Fang Instrument Spirit would find itself speechless.

Indeed, the strength that the Dragon Fang Dagger had recovered was not enough to contend with that Creation Realm strong member of the Dark Demon Race.

Otherwise, given the Dragon Fang Dagger’s character, it would have long shown off in front of Lin Chen, explaining that if Lin Chen begged and fed it more magic treasures, it could help resolve the adversary for him.

However, Lin Chen did not hear such words from the Dragon Fang Dagger at all; therefore, he could be certain that the Dragon Fang was simply not capable at the moment.

So, given the Dragon Fang Dagger’s nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, in the face of an enemy more powerful than itself, it certainly wouldn’t boast in front of Lin Chen. Yet, when it truly had the capability to handle an enemy, it would become exceptionally active in bragging about its power.

Through the years of association, Lin Chen had seen through the essence of the Dragon Fang Instrument Spirit, so he did not bother to criticise it at this time. After all, the Dragon Fang had indeed taken action to help him avert a crisis.

As for the Creation-Realm strong member of the Dark Demon Race, Lin Chen was well aware that the Dragon Fang was not a match for him at the moment, hence he did not suggest that the Dragon Fang should confront him.

At this moment, the First-Rank Demon General felt a sense of relief in his heart upon seeing Lin Chen escape.

After all, if Lin Chen were to launch another attack like the one before, he definitely would not have the strength to fend it off; his Heavenly Demon Shield was already shattered, and he had no other protective magic treasures.

Just now, he truly felt like he had walked through Ghost Gate Pass, experiencing nothing but horror and frustration. After all, who could have imagined that a mere ant like Lin Chen, at the First Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm, would possess such formidable power?

Whoosh whoosh—

However, at this moment, a powerful presence suddenly approached, and a black silhouette appeared in front of Xiu Yi. It was indeed Elder Wuse from the Dark Demon Race’s Dark Night Tribe.

"I pay my respects to the Great Elder. How come you are here?"

Upon seeing Wuse, Xiu Yi hurriedly flew forward to greet him and respectfully spoke.

"Hmph, why do you think I would come?"

"Do you know that the Dead Qi Earth Vein of the Shadow Tribe was forcefully absorbed by a third, causing damage to our foundation?"

"Why do you think I would come?"

Wuse’s eyes fell coldly on the First-Rank Demon General. He had always thought highly of Xiu Yi and had entrusted him with this significant task among the many demon generals. However, today’s outcome had profoundly disappointed him in Xiu Yi’s abilities.

After giving Xiu Yi a cold look, Wuse did not linger on the spot. Instead, sensing Lin Chen’s aura, he quickly pursued. This was not the time to hold Xiu Yi accountable; the priority was to capture the Human Race thief who had stolen the Space Crystal Stones and absorbed the Dead Qi foundation of their Shadow Tribe.

Upon hearing Wu Se’s words, Xiu Yi, the First-Rank Demon General, was shocked to his core. He had originally thought Lin Chen merely stole the Space Crystal Stone; however, he never expected that Lin Chen would also absorb the death qi at the root of the Shadow Tribe’s Dead Qi Earth Vein through the Spatial Spirit Spring, taking nearly a third of it and damaging its very foundation.

Such actions would not be redeemed even if Lin Chen were to die a hundred times over.

However, as the Great General who was responsible for this operation, he, too, could not shirk his responsibility, as it was his failure to capture Lin Chen that had led to these events.

A glint of deadly chill flickered in Xiu Yi’s eyes as he swiftly followed in Wu Se’s footsteps. He had to capture Lin Chen; otherwise, he could never wash away his own responsibility.

At this moment, Xiu Yi could no longer afford to fear that golden light Lin Chen had released.

If Great Elder Wu Se perceived his fear of a mere Human Race ant, Xiu Yi could forget about having a future among the Dark Demon Race.

Besides, though that golden light was formidable, now that Great Elder Wu Se was personally present, there would naturally be a way to deal with it.

...

Two hours had passed, and Lin Chen, flying at full speed and using the Qiankun Escape Earth Talisman, had finally arrived at the Teleportation Channel Entrance.

Lin Chen’s body was once again on the brink of collapse, having suffered serious spatial compression injuries.

If he could not escape from the pursuit of the Dark Demon martial artists this time, Lin Chen might truly meet his end here, as he was now devoid of any fighting strength.

The vicinity of the channel was swarmed by countless armies of the Dark Demon Race, who were continuously descending into the Eastern Domain through the Formation.

Alert and vigilant, they all looked in Lin Chen’s direction, evidently having received word from above that Lin Chen was en route to this place, and they were tasked with stopping him from teleporting back to the Eastern Domain.

Faced with the wariness of the Dark Demon tribespeople, Lin Chen did not hesitate and instantly used an Earth Grade Qiankun Escape Earth Talisman to reach the Teleportation Channel Entrance.

The nearby Dark Demon tribespeople reacted, extending long spears in their hands to thrust at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen raised his hand, and a powerful force burst forth from him.

Although his body was on the verge of collapse and he could not battle with Xiu Yi, the First-Rank Demon General, or any powerful Heavenly Human Realm fighters, it was impossible for these lowly Dark Demon tribespeople of the First Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm and the Second Layer to detain him.

Lin Chen’s Spiritual Power vibrated, releasing the Power of Thunder and Lightning in an instant. The dozen or so Dark Demon martial artists attacking him were struck by the formidable power, instantly turning into dust. Lin Chen seized this opportunity to leap into the Teleportation Channel.

The next second, Lin Chen’s body finally appeared within the Luoyun Mountain Range of the Eastern Domain.

Back on the Void Continent, Wu Se and Xiu Yi, who were rushing towards the Teleportation Channel at full speed, arrived just in time to see Lin Chen kill over a dozen Dark Demon tribespeople before his body disappeared into the channel.

This instantly turned Wu Se and Xiu Yi’s faces dark with rage.

"Send out the order; mobilize the entire Dark Demon Army of the Shadow Tribe immediately to the other side of this channel to the world beyond, and exterminate every living being in that realm to cleanse the humiliation suffered by our Dark Demon Race today."

Wu Se’s expression was icy, his heart filled with immense fury. On this occasion, their Shadow Tribe had lost all face because of Lin Chen, suffering a most humiliating disgrace.
