Chapter 279: Leaving a Hidden Hand
Bang!
Blazing white lightning suddenly appeared on the ground, and the entire market was covered by lightning, and the ground was directly cut off by more than several feet!
A huge pit was blasted out of the entire ground, and all the land in it completely disappeared, and was directly blasted into ashes. The air was full of sand and dust, and the smell of scorched earth was everywhere.
The huge explosion sounded for hundreds of miles, and even in the original place of the market, the aftermath caused a small mushroom cloud to rise, which slowly dissipated at this time.
Although the result is unclear, such a terrifying explosion, which flattened the entire market in one fell swoop, is enough to show the fierceness of the battle.
However, all the phenomena disappeared soon, and the sound also subsided, leaving only the sound of rain in the night.
"Who... won?"
At this moment, on a small hill not far from Jiatai Market, Ye You and others stood there, with a look of doubt on their faces.
Long before, when Taiyin Old Demon used the means left by them to perform remote clone projection, he used the Five Ghosts Moving Technique to send these three people out of the market.
After all, they are already foundation-building cultivators, and they are also true disciples. For the demon cultivators, they are no longer dispensable. It is impossible to let them die in the aftermath of the battle.
And the battle between high-level cultivators is not something that low-level cultivators can watch casually. If you are not careful, it is easy to kill a lot of people by mistake.
"Ye You, what should we do now?" At this time, a demon cultivator who became an iron-armored evil corpse in the place where the gods fell said in a deep voice.
Ye You looked at the front with a cold look and was silent for a while: "Observe the situation. When necessary, we can participate in the battle and help Taiyin Patriarch kill that guy!"
"Huh?!" The latter's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this, and looked at him in disbelief.
They had just realized the horror of the other party, which was enough to compete with the Jindan Zhenren.
But now he actually wants to intervene, isn't that courting death?
As for both sides being hurt and then taking advantage, that's a joke.
The high-level cultivators in this world, no matter how bad their condition is, are enough to easily crush low-level cultivators.
Unless the latter has high-level means, such as Zhang Hao, who has a Yuanying-level soul magic weapon in the foundation-building period and is immune to possession, otherwise no matter how lucky he is, he can only be slaughtered.
It's like a lion and a tiger fighting, unless both die, those who can intervene must at least reach the level of a wolf or leopard!
"Ye You!" Another demon cultivator sneered, "If you want to die, go by yourself, don't drag us along!"
"Under the attack of Taiyin Patriarch, he will be seriously injured if not dead. Now is the best time for us to take action..." Ye You turned around and said coldly.
But as he was talking, his whole body suddenly froze, and his eyes suddenly tightened, staring at the backs of the two people.
"Huh?!" The two of them were shocked when they saw his move and turned back suddenly.
After seeing the scene behind them clearly, they were shocked, and the hair on their bodies exploded at this moment. A chill went straight from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads!
Because behind them, a figure appeared at some point, and they were particularly familiar with this figure.
"You, you..." Ye You pointed at Lin Chen, and felt his heart beating violently, and a sense of absurdity rose in his heart.
The other party could actually appear here, which meant that the clone of Taiyin Patriarch not only failed, but was also killed by the other party.
To be honest, facing this result, although he felt incredible, it was not incomprehensible considering the other party's mysterious means.
But as a foundation-building cultivator, killing the clone of a late Jindan cultivator, not to mention the dangers and losses, but at least it should be a hard battle.
But the person who came down now not only had no injuries on his body, but also his clothes were not damaged at all, and there was not even a trace of being wet by the rain!
‘Escape, escape! ’
Ye You no longer had the energy to think about it, he just felt his heart pounding, and this thought kept flashing through his mind.
Judging from the opponent's strength and mystery, escaping might not be an easy task.
‘Sell the two people around you and try to escape! ’Ye You made this decision without hesitation.
But when he was about to execute it, he turned his head and his face froze.
Because the two figures around him suddenly dissipated, it was obvious that they had already used a method similar to [Shapeshift] to run away!
When Ye You was still struggling to make a decision in his heart, they had already run away.
When it comes to selling teammates and running away when the situation is not good, every demon cultivator will not think that he is inferior to anyone!
Ye You had already greeted their ancestors in his heart, and Lin Chen's chuckle suddenly sounded beside his ear:
"When the wind is favorable, you are quite ruthless and united. But once the wind is against you, and you are in danger of life and death, you run away very quickly."
Looking at Lin Chen's playful eyes, Ye You's face changed, and then he knelt down immediately: "Master, please accept my respect!"
Hmm? Lin Chen paused.
Kneeling so quickly? !
Should we say that he is worthy of being a hero who knows the times?
Afterwards, Ye You was afraid that he would be killed because of his worthlessness, so he quickly revealed the valuable information on him:
"Master, I know all about the conspiracy and tricks of these demon cultivators..."
Did he become "these" demon cultivators so quickly?
Lin Chen raised his eyebrows, but then his face returned to a calm look: "No, I would rather do it myself than listen to you..."
Ye You was startled when he heard this, and something bad came into his heart. Just when he was about to resist, he saw a blur in front of his eyes. Lin Chen came directly in front of him, and then directly covered his head with one hand. .
"Ahhh!"
At this moment, Ye You felt unprecedented pain coming from the Heavenly Spirit Cover.
Not only that, the memories of the past were constantly appearing in his mind like a picture played backwards at this moment!
"There are a lot less restrictions on the soul. Is it because I am worried that it will put too much burden on the soul and affect the promotion breakthrough?" Lin Chen sensed this scene and said thoughtfully, "But it is still quite troublesome, just right. You can try out my newly developed method."
After saying that, Lin Chen gently raised his hand. The next moment, his hand began to dissipate little by little, turning into a flying bloody worm!
This is still not his true body, but the blood ant clone that he created by combining the flesh and blood cloning technology with the earth, earth, and earthworms!
"Oh, I really like using my avatar to travel more and more. It seems that I really have the potential to be the mastermind behind the scenes..." Lin Chen said with some emotion.
Then, the blood ants separated from his hand actually brought out crystal clear white eggs, which flew out from his body and landed in Ye You's head and brain successively, absorbing various nutrients, and began to Little by little incubation and growth.
For a moment, Ye You felt a pain that was crushing his bones and sucking his marrow. He even felt that his soul was being bitten and broken into pieces, and he let out even more miserable screams.
But he was constantly struggling on the spot, unable to move. That was because Lin Chen used the aura of spiritual energy to restrict his whereabouts.
Lin Chen just looked at his miserable situation with an expressionless face. At the same time, he glanced at the two demon cultivators in the direction where they were running away, and his expression changed:
"Have the divine soul spirit insects successfully parasitized..."
Although he was just a clone, Lin Chen had made a special trip. Otherwise, with his abilities, whether it was curse killing or long-range attacks, he would not have come here in person.
The reason why he came here was, on the one hand, to capture one person alive and get the information, and on the other hand, he wanted to leave some behind.
After all, he will have to go to Xuanyin Sect sooner or later, so it is necessary to have more secret hands.
And the two demon cultivators who escaped were parasitized by him with divine soul insects, which he used to detect memory information.
Of course, this was only a superficial method. Lin Chen didn't think that with the concealment of the soul spirit insect, he could hide it from Taiyin Zhenren who was playing with the way of the soul.
Therefore, this soul insect was only used to attract others on the surface, but secretly, Lin Chen had engraved a strange illusion on it that could affect the monks' thinking.
It will continuously affect the parasitic host, thus giving birth to an existence similar to a second personality. This is Lin Chen's real secret hand.
"Um...success?"
At this time, soul insects flew out of Ye You's head one after another, and the latter was already lying on the ground, his consciousness was silent, his soul dissipated, and he became a dead person.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chen stretched out his broken arm and let the spirit insects fly in along it.
"You still can't eat away the Soul Restriction? Hmm... This is to be expected, but I still plundered a lot of memories before self-destruction, which can be considered a bit of a gain..."
Lin Chen continued to integrate and analyze the information obtained. Finally, a look of surprise appeared on his face and he said in amazement:
"Huh?! If I'm not wrong, these true disciples of the demon cultivator are actually also decoys?"
"Their role is to fish out Qingyun Sect's master Jin Dan?"
