Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 708 - 458: Assassin Phoenix (Part 2)
Once, she would feel heartache even stepping on an ant, but now, in order to protect those she cares about, she can choose to slaughter the world without hesitation.
"That would be a last resort." The old physician shook his head and advised gently, "Why don't we just observe the changes from here? If Lin Chen truly falls into a desperate situation, we can then lend a hand, it won't be too late."
Bai Ling was silent for a moment, but eventually nodded.
However, she had already made up her mind; if Lin Chen truly faced mortal danger, she would spare no cost, even if it meant exposing herself, she would ensure his safety.
Because Lin Chen had protected her countless times, this debt of gratitude was weightier than Mount Tai.
If she could turn a blind eye today, then she, Bai Ling, would not deserve to be called human!
...
Inside the Secret Realm, Lin Chen was unaware that a storm was brewing in the outside world.
The time finally reached the twenty-first day.
The dark golden cocoon that had been motionless at last showed the first sign of change.
"Crack..."
A faint sound came from the top of the cocoon. A barely perceptible crack appeared on the hard shell of the cocoon.
On the twenty-second day, the crack widened and began to spread like a spider web. The domineering aura inside the cocoon started to become restless.
On the twenty-third day, the entire cocoon began to pulsate rhythmically, like a giant heart.
...
By the twenty-ninth day, the surface of the cocoon was covered with cracks, and golden light radiated from within, dyeing the entire mountaintop in gold.
A terrifyingly powerful combat law force was brewing madly inside the cocoon, as if it could break out at any moment!
However, at this critical moment!
"Boom..."
The sky of the entire Secret Realm appeared like a shattered mirror with huge cracks; the ground collapsed, and distant mountains silently turned to dust.
The Secret Realm was about to collapse!
"Damn it!"
Lin Chen's face changed dramatically; it was the crucial moment for Xiao Hei's evolution, and it must not be interrupted!
Without a moment's hesitation, seeing the collapsing space, he decisively waved his hand and directly took the huge golden cocoon into the Beast Taming Space, instructing Xiao Hong and the others to look after the Big White Bear inside.
The next second, an irresistible force repelled everyone inside the Secret Realm.
After dizziness and chaos, Lin Chen and the others found themselves back on a valley outside Snow Dragon Mountain.
The Secret Realm's entrance behind them flickered a few times before completely dissolving into particles of light, disappearing into the air.
However, before they could get a clear view of the surroundings, a bitterly cold voice, filled with murderous intent, sounded from above. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
"Lin Chen, you've finally come out."
Lin Chen looked up sharply to see Gu Jing and Ji Changming hovering in midair, looking down on him as if he were already dead.
Although he didn't know these two people, he was more than familiar with the unique totemic attire they wore.
"Ancient Race... Ji Family of the Divine Tiger Race..." Lee Zhen's voice turned somber, "It looks like they're here for revenge."
Lin Chen nodded, but a cold smile appeared on his lips:
"For the Ancient Race and Ji Family to join forces against me, you really think highly of me, Lin Chen."
"You ruined our Ancient Race's Holy Maiden and seized her Divine and Demonic Power. This debt deserves to be settled." Gu Jing's voice was hoarse and devoid of any emotion.
Meanwhile, Ji Changming's gaze was locked onto Lee Zhen's right arm.
He had little feeling regarding Ji Shi's death, but for that legendary Phoenix Arm, he was filled with unwavering greed.
Ning Ye and the others did not hesitate for a moment, immediately summoning their Spirit Beasts and preparing for battle.
Gu Jing merely glanced at them and said, "My target this time is just these two. I don't wish to engage in needless slaughter."
How could Ning Ye and the others agree to that?
"You have others behind you, and I also have allies," Gu Jing's gaze returned to Lin Chen as he spoke with a calm tone, "If you wish to involve these people, I don't mind."
Lin Chen looked at Gu Jing, whose body was cloaked in black, and felt the lurking deadly threat. After deliberating for a moment, he finally nodded to Ning Ye and the others.
Ning Ye and the others, seeing this, were anxious but helpless.
They could only back away slowly, but everyone was poised, ready to provide support at any moment.
They were all in the same boat, and Ning Ye's group couldn't just stand by whilst Lin Chen and Lee Zhen encountered danger.
At the moment Ning Ye and others retreated...
The battle erupted suddenly!
...
Ji Changming summoned his Spirit Beast, transforming into a streak of white light, charging straight at Lee Zhen!
And Gu Jing, riding his Black Gold Phoenix, also at level ninety-four, locked his gaze on Lin Chen.
Lin Chen didn't hesitate at all, summoning the Little Fox.
"I've heard that your Divine Fox possesses multiple kinds of Anomalous Fire..."
Gu Jing, riding on the back of the Phoenix, looked down at the Little Fox with a hunter's scrutiny in his voice, "Today, I'll get a good look at it."
Facing an enemy as powerful as level ninety-four, there was no fear in the Little Fox's lively eyes, only a burning fighting spirit!
The moment the battle began, the Little Fox unleashed its full power!
It knew full well that against such opponents, any probing was a waste of opportunity. Only swift victory would do!
Its eight fox tails, ablaze with Anomalous Fire, swayed behind it, and with a burst from its mouth, several gigantic fireballs, more than five meters in diameter, shot out like meteors, sealing off all paths of retreat for Gu Jing and the Black Gold Phoenix from different angles!
