Chapter 1189: Chapter 1209: Fear Nothing if You Can Run Fast Enough_1

The proper way to use a slave?

Well, it really is like that!

If the goal is to collect Guilingzhi, and there are giant beasts guarding them, then the beasts need to be lured away. Every one of these beasts is incredibly strong, and luring them away involves great risks. It’s most appropriate to let the Human Clan slaves do this work.

As long as they can pick Guilingzhi, it doesn’t matter if the Human Clan slaves die.

Even if one slave dies for each Guilingzhi picked, it’s still not a loss!

"You hide first, and when it runs far away, you come out!"

"Alright!"

Nalan Wushuang had a Death Mark stacked on her, and she quietly hid, like a stone.

Lin Chen boldly flew out and was quickly spotted by the giant mantis. Its dark green eyes stared at Lin Chen, with cold killing intent swirling inside.

It had never seen prey that looked like this before, but it didn’t matter.

As long as it’s alive, it can be eaten!

The mantis used its powerful limbs to suddenly launch itself, collapsing the surroundings. Its 40-meter-tall body rocketed toward Lin Chen, its forelimbs like the scythe of the Death God, slashing at him at lightning speed.

Lin Chen took a step and his figure instantly shot out a couple of hundred meters. He raised his hand and a large stone with a diameter of about one meter soared up from the ground, striking the mantis directly.

The stone hit the mantis, but it didn’t leave any injury on its body.

As expected of an ancient exotic species!

Its defensive power is outstanding!

Lin Chen didn’t throw the stone to actually hit the mantis, but just to mock it. Indeed, the mantis became angry after being hit by the stone, and a hint of red emerged in its dark green eyes. It flapped its wings and flew toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen turned around and fled, with the mantis chasing him rapidly.

Without using Reducing Land to Inches, Lin Chen kept flying forward, leading the mantis away. They moved swiftly and created some distance between them.

Nalan Wushuang emerged from the jungle and hurried toward the dark fog. She successfully found a Guilingzhi in the central area of the black fog.

Nalan Wushuang quickly picked it and put it into the spirit medicine box. With the collecting of Guilingzhi, the surrounding black fog, lacking traction, began to drift like rootless duckweed. A mountain breeze blew, and the fog slowly dissipated.

Nalan Wushuang didn’t dare to stay longer. It’s not that they couldn’t defeat the mantis, but such a battle would be meaningless.

Why fight head-on when you can outsmart the foe?

Shortly after Nalan Wushuang left, the mantis returned.

Its intelligence was limited, but it knew that if it couldn’t catch up, it should stop chasing and return to guarding the Guilingzhi instead. However, it saw the dispersed black fog at a glance.

Its enormous body shot out and landed right where the Guilingzhi had grown, leaning its head over to take a few glances before letting out an angry hiss.

"Boom!"

The mountains and forests were instantly devastated, countless thick giant trees were snapped, and even the cliffs behind were collapsed by its frenzied attack. For a moment, a huge commotion could be heard from far away.

"Hehe, this guy is going crazy."

Lin Chen and Nalan Wushuang had already regrouped, and they both smiled at each other as the distant rumble reached them, after all, their cooperation this time was too smooth.

They continued on their way and, after some effort, found another Guilingzhi, still guarded by a giant beast - a giant python.

Lin Chen lured the enemy again, while Nalan Wushuang picked the Guilingzhi. The two cooperated seamlessly and took it with ease.

When they met, Nalan Wushuang handed Lin Chen a spirit medicine box to check: "The first one is around twelve hundred years old, and the second is a thousand. The value is similar, so you get one and I get one. But I’ll have to wait until we get out to give you yours. Once we’re out, we’ll have to calculate our gains. The one with the highest rank will get the reward..."

"It’s okay, I’m not in a hurry."

Although Lin Chen urgently needed various natural treasures to enhance his strength, what he wanted most now was Bodhi Blood.

Reviving Xuan Ji was the top priority!

The huge gap between humans and immortals means that only immortals can fight immortals!

To deal with Weijiao’s upcoming attack, only reviving Xuan Ji could possibly stop her.

Lin Chen asked, "I see that the teams from other sects have ten, twenty people. It won’t be easy to win against them..."

Nalan Wushuang replied, "Of course, it would be great if we could win first place, but even if we can’t, it doesn’t matter. As long as we collect enough Guilingzhi, we can exchange them with the winning faction afterward, and there should be no problem."

"Okay, let’s continue."

The two continued to advance toward the central area, and just before nightfall, they found more black fog.

This time the black fog was even thicker than before, and the area it covered was even larger!

The two flew over and landed on a mountain peak.

The source of the black fog was a huge cave at the bottom of a cliff. The black fog seeped out of the cave and condensed in the sky, forming a dark, pillar-like cloud.

"Such a huge cave... There must be a giant beast living inside..."

"Who cares? In any case, I’ll lure it away, and you go in to pick."

Lin Chen relied on his speed and showed no fear, but before he could set off, Nalan Wushuang grabbed his arm.

"There’s someone over there!"
