Chapter 2315: Chapter 2316: Battle
Like Jin Yuwen who is behind Lin Chen.
Now, there is no longer a scene of tranquility. Earlier, he had a chance to escape through the gaps, but now surrounded by enemies on all sides, he cannot flee from here.
His face appears extremely anxious.
Lin Chen is unaware of this situation; his focus is entirely on Lu Kang right now.
Since he found out that Lu Kang was behind this, he knew the matter wouldn’t be easily resolved here.
Thus, he didn’t take advantage of Little White’s agility to escape.
If he really ran away, Lu Kang wouldn’t easily let him go this time and would definitely pursue him with all his might.
Holding the ancient sword, as spiritual energy infused into it, the ancient sword began to tremble slightly.
"Today, let’s use your blood to consecrate this sword."
Lu Kang squints his eyes, stroking the longsword.
Immediately, he steps forward and rushes ahead.
Almost as soon as he moves, the towering figures around him also spring into action. Their attacks are simple and pure, but not to be underestimated.
A punch lands, and the air currents contained within feel like a hurricane, stinging one’s face painfully.
The figures originally standing together quickly disperse in different directions as multiple fists fall, and those who react a bit slower are knocked down by these figures, smashed to a pulp.
All these people are dealing with the many towering figures on the field, and these figures, seemingly intelligent, do not touch Lin Chen at all.
Lin Chen and Lu Kang intertwine, the two longswords clash as they strike, causing wild vibrations. The sound of metal clashing, as the sword edges touch, is quite delightful.
Unlike last time, Lin Chen now has a clear consciousness, and his cultivation has slightly advanced, allowing him not to fall behind in the instant of collision.
The spiritual technique transmitted through the sword shocked Lu Kang, even causing him a little loss.
"It seems your strength has improved considerably over the past few days."
Lu Kang was not the slightest bit angry; instead, he carried a hint of amusement. He was unafraid of Lin Chen; previously, when Lin Chen was immersed, he had fought with Lin Chen before.
At that time, Lin Chen lacked autonomous consciousness, and although his cultivation was high, he lacked some agility, far less dynamic than now.
Lin Chen didn’t speak; he conserved his strength carefully, knowing that Lu Kang was challenging, and in battle, he naturally did not want to expend unnecessary energy.
Lin Chen’s sword swung in his hand like rain, flickering with cold light. With each swing, the spiritual energy was precisely managed without any waste.
This naturally shows Lin Chen’s great progress in controlling spiritual energy, and such progress might not seem significant normally, but in sustained combat, it becomes exceedingly crucial.
Lu Kang’s face revealed an astonished look. They had not seen each other for just a few days, yet Lin Chen’s cultivation level and combat abilities had improved incredibly fast, shocking Lu Kang.
"Then see how this strike fairs!"
Lu Kang chuckled coldly and placed the longsword in front of him.
He then extended his hands, constantly intertwining and overlapping them. After doing so, the longsword in front seemed to be drawn by some force.
The sword, already shrouded in sinister black energy, trembled fiercely like a heart slowly beating on the sword’s body.
With this throbbing, the sword suddenly turned, its tip soaring upwards, and when it flew above Lu Kang’s head, it suddenly fell!
As it fell, it seemed like an eagle attacking prey below.
And the target of this attack was naturally Lin Chen!
Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed, facing the already manifested momentum, he naturally dared not face it head-on. He retreats swiftly, traversing back and forth on the ground.
Meanwhile, he gripped his sword and unleashed several attacks, spiritual energy spewing from the tip of Lin Chen’s sword, constantly directed at the descending longsword.
Such thin attacks couldn’t make the longsword fall from the air, and naturally, Lin Chen didn’t have that intention. His attacks were merely meant to hold the longsword momentarily, giving him enough time to respond.
Lu Kang squints his eyes, seemingly with a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. He is in no hurry to capture Lin Chen under such circumstances.
After all, this is an isolated area, and although the Green Ripple Sect is thousands of miles away, even the closer Crimson Flame Sect wouldn’t easily venture here.
Moreover, having sent elders previously, the situation here naturally does not warrant worrying about others’ arrival.
Today, Lu Kang has enough time to deal with Lin Chen.
Finally, the sharp sword was swung downward; Lin Chen’s sword rose to meet Lu Kang’s fierce attack coming down.
Upon collision, an unusually strong noise erupts from above, its sound vibrating like muffled thunder, ringing in the ears.
This is not the most important thing; the crucial part is the black qi spraying forth from the sword body. The sinister energy emanating from the sword spreads into Lin Chen’s Tianyan Ancient Sword and then penetrates into his body.
At that moment, he let out a cold hum, bending his knees slightly as an extremely chilling aura creeps over Lin Chen’s body and ravages within.
With this evil qi entering his body, within Lin Chen’s mind, those intertwined, web-like sinister energies also start to move, quickly rising like weeds in Lin Chen’s consciousness.
It begins to occupy Lin Chen’s original consciousness, but this time, it lacks the previous aggressiveness.
Instead, they act like squads of soldiers, sweeping away those sudden sinister energies that have invaded Lin Chen’s consciousness.
Nevertheless, Lin Chen’s mind still experiences pain, like needles piercing through.
This pain makes it impossible for Lin Chen to gather his spirit, only able to steadfastly hold his sword, blocking the longsword before him.
The longsword continues emitting sinister energy as if naturally a gathering place for thereof, spreading around Lin Chen, shrouding him in a veil of sinister qi, its black energy so dense that it’s hard to see inside clearly.
At this moment, Lu Kang is smiling lightly. This sinister qi is under his control, meant to engulf Lin Chen’s consciousness, turning him into the sword’s slave like Zhao Mu before, making him belong under Lu Kang’s control as well.
"Once I can seize his body, the restoration of strength will be within reach!"
