Chapter 38 Refraction and Breakthrough

"Don't know how to live or die!" The gray-robed monk with the treasure-hunting rat sneered when he saw Lin Chen attacking.

He knew that the other party wanted to take advantage of the distraction of everyone's attention to kill him, so as to avoid the news from being leaked and causing siege.

However, the other party didn't think that he could stand out from many casual cultivators, reach the perfection of Qi Refining, and was about to build a foundation. How could he be so easy to deal with?

"Let you, little bastard, see how powerful I am!" While speaking, the gray-robed monk took out a golden spirit sword from the storage bag, and then controlled it to hit Lin Chen directly.

The spirit sword attacked fiercely, emitting golden light.

And under the light of the golden spirit sword, an invisible spirit needle that was not easy to detect shot at Lin Chen's vitals at an extremely tricky angle.

Obviously, the spirit sword was only used to attract Lin Chen's attention. The real attack was the spirit needle hidden in the dark!

This spiritual needle is made from the tail of a very rare and special demon beast, the Jade Scorpion, and has two properties: breaking the law and being extremely poisonous.

Breaking the law can break the protective spiritual shield of most monks at one time, while being extremely poisonous can kill people!

Once it hits, even if the person is not dead, he will be poisoned.

At that time, the opponent will definitely not be able to deal with himself in his prime.

Operating two spiritual tools at the same time, attacking with false attacks in the open and real attacks in the dark, as well as the characteristics of breaking the law and being extremely poisonous of the spiritual needle, these various insidious means make him invincible in the struggle between monks.

Not only did he kill a large number of enemies and fat sheep, but he also allowed the gray-robed monks to plunder a large number of resources and have the possibility of looking forward to building a foundation.

And now, not only will he have another life in his hands, he may also get the method of washing the marrow to remove the hidden dangers of the body, and even get a precious spiritual object-a hundred-year-old jade.

"Die!" The gray-robed monk grinned, as if he saw the scene of harvesting the spoils.

He controlled the spirit needle to penetrate Lin Chen first, and then the golden sword slashed at the opponent fiercely.

Even if the opponent was poisoned, he did not hesitate to make another slash!

After all, if he did not make another slash, if he gave the opponent a breath and killed you together, it would be a wrongful death.

Buzz!

The golden sword fell from the sky with a sharp breath, splitting the unprotected Lin Chen in half!

"What, what's going on?!" Seeing this scene, the gray-robed monk not only did not show any joy on his face, but his original smile froze and he looked shocked.

Because the golden sword slashed through Lin Chen's body, not only did it not split him in half, but even blood and flesh did not splash!

On the contrary, the opponent seemed to kill him as if nothing had happened!

"This is impossible!" The gray-robed monk's face was full of disbelief.

If the opponent used a life-saving talisman or a defensive spiritual weapon to block it, or if he was a body-refining monk and used his body to resist it, he could still understand it.

But it was the first time he had seen a situation where a spirit sword cut through a body but seemed to ignore it!

‘Is it an illusion? No, it’s impossible. An illusion in the Qi Refining Stage is at most a false image, which is easy to distinguish. How could it be so realistic...’ The gray-robed monk gritted his teeth and revealed his trump card again.

His eyes flashed through many things like flowing light, and the eyes that finally condensed were upright, emitting a faint green light, like snake pupils.

This was a unique trick he obtained from the cave of an ancient monk - the green-eyed spirit pupil.

Not only can it be observed in detail and assist in combat, but it can also see through illusions to a certain extent.

However, when he looked at Lin Chen again, his pupils shrank suddenly.

Because in his eyes, Lin Chen not only had no illusions, but he could even see the details of every part of the other person's clothes, shoes, etc.!

According to all the current situations, the other party is either an illusion or a real person!

But how can a real person ignore his attack like a mirror image?

"This is not an illusion, but the refraction of light." As if sensing his shock, Lin Chen smiled gently.

"Refraction?" The gray-robed monk was stunned when he heard this.

However, at the moment when he lost consciousness, Lin Chen's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his entire figure became blurred, as if countless figures overlapped together, and then stretched out like a face, presenting a bizarre scene.

When the gray-robed monk reacted, Lin Chen had disappeared from a position not far away and appeared directly in front of him.

Such a rapid change, at the moment he was thinking, made him have no time to take out the defensive spiritual weapon in the storage bag!

"No!" The gray-robed monk who reacted was bloodshot, and a spiritual light flashed across his body to protect his body, and he wanted to fight back desperately.

But how could the defensive means he formed in a hurry resist Lin Chen's long-planned attack?

So a hand wrapped in red light directly broke through the protective spiritual shield and strangled his neck tightly!

Click, click!

Bang!

In an instant, the gray-robed monk's head was torn off by Lin Chen. Then, under the influence of a huge force, the head in his hand broke on the spot like a crisp melon, splashing a large amount of red and white liquid!

"What?!"

The noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

At this moment, whether it was the monks who were blocking or the people who were fleeing from the nearby station, they were shocked when they saw this scene, especially the monks who blocked Lin Chen.

You know, just now they caught the trace of the monk who bought the foundation-building secret method, so their attention was diverted for more than ten seconds.

It took more than ten seconds, only a few words, but within this short period of time, Lin Chen actually took action and killed the gray-robed monk who was a little famous among their casual cultivators.

Moreover, what made them even more incredible was Lin Chen's method of teleporting through changes in light and shadow, ignoring attacks.

Because they have lived for so many years and have never seen such weird methods!

What is the origin of the other party?

This thought flashed through the minds of everyone present.

Lin Chen walked forward expressionlessly, while all the casual cultivators who were standing in front of him subconsciously took a step back, and no one dared to catch his gaze.

If the opponent is powerful, as long as they are still in the Qi refining stage, they will still dare to fight with their strength in numbers.

But the problem is that the methods used by the opponent, such as ignoring attacks, teleportation, etc., are so weird that no casual cultivator dares to stop him, or even fears that he will be killed if he takes a second look!

'Fortunately, I used the invisibility technique immediately and frightened them. Otherwise, if I were surrounded by them and fell into a group fight, I'm afraid there would be a lot of trouble...'

Lin Chen's face was cold, but this thought flashed through his mind.

Of course, the invisibility technique he was talking about was not the ordinary templates sold on the market, but improved ones.

The invisibility skills sold on the market not only emit spiritual energy fluctuations when used, but are also easily seen through pupil techniques and other methods, so Lin Chen thought of many ways to improve them.

In Lin Chen's view, the function of invisibility is to complete unexpected attacks during combat.

So, based on this, he thought of two ways to improve it.

One is to blind others' perceptions and make others subconsciously ignore themselves, which is the so-called invisibility in the psychological sense.

However, human perception and consciousness are related to the soul. Lin Chen's cultivation during the Qi refining period cannot explore the soul, and naturally he cannot achieve this level of improvement.

So Lin Chen adopted the second method, which was to use the refraction of light.

Anyone who has speared fish knows that when spearing fish, you should not spear the body of the fish, but the lower part of the fish.

This is because light refracts in water, resulting in position misjudgment.

The essence of invisibility is to use spiritual energy to form a layer of material similar to an invisibility cloak to cover the body.

So Lin Chen combined the principle of light refraction and changed the invisible substance in the invisibility technique to a substance similar to water, and then expanded the range, thereby affecting the enemy's misjudgment of his position.

The gray-robed monk saw Lin Chen's body from beginning to end. However, due to the refraction of light, he misjudged Lin Chen's position every time, causing the attack to miss, so the situation just happened.

And because he misjudged his position, Lin Chen, who was clearly in front of him, was judged to be five meters away, so he had no time to defend himself.

The strangeness at the time of the battle was precisely because Lin Chen combined some theories from his previous life to create a scene that was incredible to the monks in this life.

In fact, Lin Chen's improvements in invisibility didn't stop there.

Light break lines and misjudgment of positions are only the first step in improvement.

The next step is to blind perception and achieve something similar to psychological invisibility.

In the later stage, it distorts time and space, making the world unable to detect its own existence. It even jumps out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements. Even the vast river of time cannot detect its own existence!

This is his real pursuit!

And at this point, this method should no longer be called the invisibility technique, but should be called one of the Thirty-Six Methods of Tiangang - [Stand Upright without Shadow]!

Bringing his thoughts back to reality, Lin Chen walked forward step by step with an expressionless face, and no one in the venue dared to stop him.

Seeing Lin Chen walking out step by step without any intention of competing for the secret method, everyone in the venue couldn't help but let out a long breath in their hearts.

After all, no one wants to face such a powerful and weird guy.

But just when he reached the edge of the chasing crowd, a sudden change occurred.

In the center of the crowd, the person who bought the foundation-building secret technique suddenly moved.

I saw a small black ball appearing in his hand at some point, and then he squeezed it hard.

Suddenly, several rays of lightning flashed, alternating and forming a ball of lightning. In an instant, it continued to expand, swallowing up everyone present who had no time to react!
