Chapter 1291: Chapter 1311: No matter what I say, I am better than them, right!?_1

Lin Chen looked at Zhao Jia in front of him and laughed, "Why did you surrender so easily? Weren’t you so loyal to Li Wudao?"

Zhao Jia wiped a corner of his mouth that was dripping with blood, speaking with an attitude of abandonment, "I’m already on the verge of death, what does being loyal matter now? At the end of the day, we are just a bunch of robbers."

"I failed to stop you before, which was my mistake. I was bound to be punished cruelly. I couldn’t bear that kind of punishment. So, I chased after you, hoping to catch you to make up for my mistake and avoid punishment."

"Since I’ve fallen into your hands now, if I don’t surrender, it’s death. Isn’t that worse than punishment? To survive, I have to surrender. I’ve only just been resurrected, even if I’m only a semi-immortal, who would want to just fade away and die?"

Reality!

Lin Chen laughed, "I’ve pretty much investigated all the secrets of Mystical Immortal Island these past few days. It seems like you don’t hold much value."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jia immediately grew anxious, "Anyway, my strength is still stronger than theirs, right? In a one-on-one battle, none of them are my match..."

Ji Ruxue and others exchanged a look, not uttering a word.

Although they were a bit reluctant to admit it, what Zhao Jia said was indeed the truth. If it weren’t for them ganging up against him, they really wouldn’t be able to beat him.

Lin Chen laughed, "Don’t feel discouraged. You cultivators consume Immortal Yuan Dan to become semi-immortals. They are genuine divine spirits reborn through possession. Their bodies may be cultivators’ bodies, but their divine spirits are authentic immortals. This level of semi-immortality is not something that ordinary cultivators can achieve by taking medicine..."

Upon saying this, Lin Chen found it interesting. The Immortal Slave had to get a new body, an immortal body with the divine spirit of a cultivator. But the semi-immortals of Mystical Immortal Island had the divine spirit of an immortal in a cultivator’s body.

Comparatively, the divine spirit of an Immortal seemed more high-end, mainly because the divine spirit of an Immortal was cultivated, genuine and valuable, while the Immortal Body hadn’t undergone the tempering of Thunder Tribulation. It relies on Immortal Yuan Dan to transform, strictly speaking, it can only be considered as a pseudo-immortal body. Without an opportunity, it will remain like this for a lifetime.

Reborn by possessing an Immortal’s divine spirit?

Ji Ruxue asked curiously, "Boss, why are there so many Immortals’ Divine Spirits on Mystical Immortal Island?"

Lin Chen took out the Wind-Banner and let Chu Jiaxue out.

As soon as Chu Jiaxue landed, she saw Lin Chen smiling at her, which instantly eased her tense feelings by a large margin.

"We escaped?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Yes, not only did we escape, but we also captured an Immortal Envoy..."

Chu Jiaxue’s eyes swept over the group of people around her, looking a bit confused.

Lin Chen gave a brief introduction one by one, "They are all my subordinates...Chu Jiaxue, my wife."

Ji Ruxue and others respectfully saluted, "Nice to meet you, Madam."

They felt a hint of gratitude in their hearts for Lin Chen’s introduction of them as subordinates instead of servants.

Contract servants are also subordinates, but the feelings invoked by the labels servant and subordinate are entirely different.

Chu Jiaxue’s eyes widened in shock. These four semi-immortals were actually Lin Chen’s subordinates.

Has Lin Chen’s ability grown this much?

Lin Chen briefly recounted his experiences since entering the Mystical Immortal Island. Everyone was stunned, including Zhao Jia who was dumbfounded.

Who would have thought that there would be thousands of divine spirits sealed on Mystical Immortal Island in this Barren Wilderness? They even didn’t anticipate that those who entered the Mystical Immortal Island with the Bewildering Immortal Order for so-called Immortal Fate were actually being seized and reborn!

So many people fight fiercely to seize the Bewildering Immortal Order, but they are actually going to their doom. This is simply a huge irony!

Moreover, they didn’t expect Lin Chen to be so fierce. He dared to start against the Immortals, killing off hundreds of fragile divine spirits of Immortals all at once.

Hundreds of Immortals!

Chu Jiaxue looked at Lin Chen, with almost little stars in her eyes.

In the Human World, even if he wasn’t the strongest, there was never anything he couldn’t solve, no enemy he couldn’t handle. Now in the Barren Wilderness, he was still the same, as fierce as ever!

Even the Immortals couldn’t stop him!

Yan Chusheng asked, "Does that mean that from ancient times to now, quite a few spirits of Immortals have entered the Barren Wilderness?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Yes, but those are basically the spirits of Immortals with relatively weak strength. After tens of thousands of years of sealing, their divine spirits are on the verge of dispersion. Even if the people who go in have poor qualifications, the Immortals have no choice. So, the achievements won’t be too high, they may even not be able to become semi-immortals."

"Also, because of their special circumstances, once they’ve been reincarnated after possessing a body, it’s highly unlikely that the divine spirit will escape again and be reborn through possession. Meaning, it’s a one-time deal."

"Those people are simply living a few hundred or a couple of thousand years longer in this world before they return to the dust. They don’t have much impact on this world."

Thinking of the many semi-immortals on the island and thousands of Immortal spirits, Ji Ruxue felt a bit of a creepy crawly sensation on her scalp.

In such a dangerous situation, Lin Chen not only survived but also saved Chu Jiaxue, killed hundreds of Immortals, and incidentally advanced to the Great Circle of Void Separation.

Even though she was a gifted individual with a high pride, if she put herself in Lin Chen’s shoes, she would definitely be on a road to doom.

He was much stronger than she initially was!

Impressive!
