Proving the Epic Tier
"Bai Wubian, what are you doing?!"
Qin Chuan stared at Bai Wubian, who had suddenly made his move, his eyes filled with shock and surprise.
Bai Wubian's attack was too sudden; he had no time to react and stop him.
"Buzz!"
Bai Wubian did not respond to him; the only response he received was a piercing, whooshing sound as it hurtled through the air.
After killing Su Jiujiu with a single palm strike, Bai Wubian rushed towards Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, determined to nip these two geniuses who had risen from Earth in the bud.
By killing Su Jiujiu, his identity as Human Traitor had already been exposed.
Let's just go all the way.
They killed Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan as well.
Eliminate the threat beforehand.
Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan's evolutionary talents are terrifying.
If left unchecked, it will definitely pose a huge threat to the Sun-Moon Sacred Land in the future.
If circumstances permit, he wants to take Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan back to the Sun-Moon Sacred Land to offer them as a sacrifice to the great Flower God.
However, given the current situation, this is simply impossible.
The only thing we can do is kill them both quickly.
If I can't have it, I'll destroy it!
"Buzz!"
A whooshing sound followed immediately.
It was Qin Chuan who made the move.
He hadn't reacted when Bai Wubian suddenly attacked Su Jiujiu.
Now, Bai Wubian is attacking Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan right in front of him, and with his greater strength, it's impossible for him not to react.
Soon!
A loud "boom" was heard.
Qin Chuan moved like a shadow, breaking through the Void to appear in front of Bai Wubian, and with a vast amount of blood and qi, he threw a punch at him.
This punch shattered the air and tore through space.
It was as if a giant meteorite had violently struck the Earth's surface.
It unleashed an extremely terrifying amount of energy.
In an instant, Bai Wubian was blasted into countless pieces of blood and flesh.
But the next second, the blood and flesh scattered everywhere quickly reformed into a human shape, which was none other than Bai Wubian, who had been blown up just a second ago.
Lin Zichen witnessed this scene up close and was deeply shocked.
Qin Chuan's precise control over energy was astounding; he could shatter a Legendary Tier powerhouse with a single punch without harming any bystanders nearby.
At the same time, it also shocked Bai Wubian's ability to regenerate flesh and blood. Even though he was blasted into a sky full of flesh and blood by a single punch, he could instantly restore his human form and look completely unharmed.
Is this the power of Legendary Tier creature?
Thinking this to himself, Lin Zichen quickly realized what was happening, grabbed Shen Qinghan, and pulled her away from the battlefield at top speed.
Qin Chuan's one-sided attack, a single punch, ensures that no one else will be injured.
But if things escalate into a fierce battle with Bai Wubian, the intensity of the aftershocks could be unpredictable, potentially destroying an area of dozens of miles in an instant.
This is a powerful Legendary Tier creature, possessing the power to destroy the world.
The others thought the same thing, and quickly moved away from the center of the battlefield to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Most of the Survey Team members were only Rare Tier creatures, and they could do nothing in the face of a battle between Legendary Tier powerhouses.
Rather than being shaken to death like a mosquito later, it's better to get away now and save your life.
No one will say anything about it, and no one will become a deserter because of it.
That's all.
In the blink of an eye, only three Legendary Tier powerhouses— Qin Chuan, Bai Wubian, and Shangguan Yuehua— were left facing off.
Qin Chuan, his face grim and eyes filled with anger, demanded, "Bai Wubian, which faction's lackey are you?"
"Sun-Moon Sacred Land"
Bai Wubian answered calmly, without refuting the highly insulting term "lackey."
It's the Sun-Moon Sacred Land again!
Qin Chuan couldn't understand. "You've already risen to the position of Deputy City Lord. In a few years, after I step down, you'll be the strongest contender for the new City Lord. Why would you want to be a lackey of the Sun-Moon Sacred Land?"
Bai Wubian remained completely unmoved. "I am able to sit in the position of Deputy City Lord today because of the Sun-Moon Sacred Land."
"You're worse than pigs and dogs!"
Qin Chuan cursed loudly, then said to Shangguan Yuehua beside him, "Yuehua, help me capture him alive and bring him back to the city for severe interrogation!"
"Good."
Shangguan Yuehua was extremely sparing with her words.
Bai Wubian laughed, "You want to capture me alive? I'd rather self-destruct than give you the chance to capture me alive."
Qin Chuan scoffed, "Lackeys are all cowards who fear death."
The moment he finished speaking, his eyes narrowed, and he directly broke through the Void to appear above Bai Wubian. He raised his palm, which was swirling with blood and qi, and slammed it down like Mount Tai.
Bai Wubian was unable to dodge in time and was immediately suppressed by a palm strike. He crashed to the ground with a loud bang, creating a large number of shocking spiderweb-like cracks and causing the earth to shake violently.
Qin Chuan did not pause at all.
They immediately broke through the Void and rushed into the billowing dust below.
We must press our advantage and pursue the attack.
They gave Bai Wubian no chance to catch his breath.
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
"Buzz!"
As soon as Qin Chuan rushed into the smoke and dust, a piercing air explosion came from inside.
As the sound rang out, countless Thorn Vine shot into the sky, carrying terrifying power, and hurtled towards Qin Chuan like arrows.
Qin Chuan didn't take the attacking Thorn Vine seriously at all.
He directly shuddered, unleashing the terrifying pressure of Legendary high-level creature, instantly shattering the attacking Thorn Vine into a shower of wood chips.
Seeing the Thorn Vine cleared away in an instant, Bai Wubian's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
He knew Qin Chuan was stronger than him, but he didn't expect the gap to be so large.
After a moment of realization, he lost all interest in entanglement with Qin Chuan and immediately used his shield technique to escape.
However, Qin Chuan gave him absolutely no chance to escape.
Just as he was about to flee, Qin Chuan unleashed his Mental Power, swiftly and ruthlessly attacking his Consciousness Sea, preventing him from using any escape techniques.
Following closely behind, Shangguan Yuehua also rushed over, attacking Bai Wubian from both sides and completely blocking his escape route.
"Moonlight, it's hallucinating him!"
Qin Chuan gave instructions to Shangguan Yuehua was rushing over.
Shangguan Yuehua remained silent, silently unleashing her Mental Power to use a hallucinogenic skill.
The next second.
Qin Chuan suddenly felt a surge of the Consciousness Sea deep within his brain, his consciousness gradually becoming blurred, and his senses becoming chaotic.
He was subjected to psychological attacks.
The person who attacked him was none other than Shangguan Yuehua, who was not far away.
"Yuehua, what are you doing?!"
Qin Chuan's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Shangguan Yuehua.
Shangguan Yuehua said sparingly, "I'll kill you."
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
At that moment, he became acutely aware of one thing.
Shangguan Yuehua, the Deputy City Lord whom he had always trusted, valued, and placed high hopes on, was just like another Deputy City Lord, Bai Wubian —both were Human Traitor!
"Yuehua, you've been hiding this very well."
Qin Chuan, thanks to his higher Biological Rank Shangguan Yuehua, quickly blocked her mental attack, his face turning ashen and black as ink.
Bai Wubian and Shangguan Yuehua were always at odds in the city, like oil and water.
In the end, it turned out that both of them were Human Traitor and were in cahoots.
What a clever disguise.
"Yuehua, just deal with him; there's no need to try and kill him."
Having recovered, Bai Wubian quickly flew to the other side of Shangguan Yuehua and joined her in attacking Qin Chuan from both sides.
Bai Wubian has only one goal: to delay Qin Chuan so that his other accomplices can kill Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan.
Of course, it would be best if we could capture both of them alive and bring them back to the Sun-Moon Sacred Land.
On the other side.
Lin Zichen carried Shen Qinghan as they flew at high speed.
It left behind a series of ear-piercing sonic booms in the air.
It only took half a minute.
Lin Zichen carried Shen Qinghan and flew nearly a hundred miles away, instantly getting away from the center of the battlefield.
Um?
As they were about to fly over a grassland, Lin Zichen sensed a familiar presence below.
Very familiar with it.
It's Su Jiujiu's scent.
Lin Zichen looked down in the direction the aura was coming from, and what came into view was Su Jiujiu lying on the grassland below, barely alive, her body motionless.
Upon closer inspection, I realized she was still breathing.
His limbs didn't move, but his chest was still rising and falling.
Without hesitation, Lin Zichen unleashed his Mental Power to telekinetically pull the dying Su Jiujiu up from below and casually tuck her into his arms.
Looking at Su Jiujiu who had been rescued, and Shen Qinghan who was being held on the other side, her pretty face was full of disbelief.
She had personally witnessed Su Jiujiu being blasted into nothingness by Bai Wubian's palm strike, leaving not even a hair behind.
However, Su Jiujiu, who had been blasted into nothingness by a Legendary Tier expert with a single palm strike, was now reappearing intact on the grassland below, which was simply unbelievable.
Lin Zichen noticed the confusion and bewilderment on Shen Qinghan's face and explained to her, "She has the ability to Severed Tail Escape, just like a gecko, and can resurrect indefinitely."
"Infinite resurrection?"
Shen Qinghan opened her mouth wide, her face full of surprise, and said, "Then doesn't that mean she's immortal?"
Lin Zichen said, "Probably, but I suspect there are some kind of limitations. Every time Severed Tail Escape, they have to pay a price, otherwise it would be too outrageous."
Shen Qinghan didn't say anything, but just nodded, agreeing with Lin Zichen's point.
At this moment, looking at Su Jiujiu, who was so weak she was almost out of breath, she spoke in a soft, intermittent voice:
"Every time I Severed Tail Escape, I have to consume one tail..."
"Now only the last tail remains..."
"If I die again... then I'll really be dead..."
Su Jiujiu was worried that Lin Zichen would think she could be resurrected indefinitely and would treat her carelessly, disregarding her life or death.
Based on this, she had to make it clear to Lin Zichen that she only had one life left.
Lin Zichen did not choose to believe it after hearing this.
He didn't believe that Su Jiujiu really only had one life left.
Although he didn't believe it, he didn't verify it.
"Lin Zi, this isn't the way back to the city. Where are we going?"
Shen Qinghan noticed that the flight direction was wrong and immediately asked in confusion.
Lin Zichen patiently explained to her, "There are too many Human Traitor. Until the City Lord completely eliminates Human Traitor, the city is not a good place to go."
Shen Qinghan: "You mean... there might still be many Human Traitor in the city?"
"It's not a possibility, it's 100% certain."
After finishing his sentence, Lin Zichen added, "Even a Deputy City Lord of City No. 1 can be Human Traitor, so it's not surprising at all that someone is telling me that City Lord Qin Chuan is also Human Traitor."
Upon hearing his words, Shen Qinghan's expression changed slightly.
How can there be so Human Traitor?
Are there really this many Human Traitor?
How has Earth managed to continue existing?
If even the highest levels have been infiltrated to this extent, shouldn't they have been wiped out long ago?
Shen Qinghan was completely baffled.
Equally perplexed Su Jiujiu, who was on the verge of death on the other side.
As the Saintess of Qingqiu Ancient Mountain, she found it hard to understand how an organization could still function with so many traitors within its ranks; it was truly a wonder of the world.
In the blink of an eye.
Several minutes passed.
Lin Zichen carried the two women at high speed for hundreds of miles, but eventually, due to excessive Mental Power exhaustion, he had to stop and rest temporarily in a forest below.
He chose to land on a towering tree and casually sat on a thick, sprawling branch.
Then, with a thought, he took out various elixirs and medicines from his Storage Space to quickly restore his depleted Mental Power.
"Lin Zi, she looks so weak, should we give her a Blood Bath Pill?"
Shen Qinghan is kind-hearted and can't bear to see people suffer, so she wants to treat Su Jiujiu's injuries.
However, because she lacks her own opinions, she habitually asks Lin Zichen for his opinion before doing anything, and never makes any decisions on her own.
Lin Zichen said gently, "Of course you can. These are all minor matters. Do whatever you want. You don't need to ask for my opinion on everything."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghan picked up a relatively high-quality Blood Bath Pill and carefully placed it into Su Jiujiu's mouth.
The Blood Bath Pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, transforming into wisps of warm current that flowed into Su Jiujiu's body, nourishing every cell and repairing any damage.
Nourished by the Blood Bath Pill Elixir.
Soon.
Su Jiujiu, whose face had been completely pale, suddenly became rosy.
However, he still doesn't look well.
This is a severe injury to the soul, which cannot be healed by the Blood Bath Pill.
Seeing this, Shen Qinghan took another Soul Nourishing Pill and stuffed it into Su Jiujiu's mouth in an attempt to repair her soul.
However, the Soul Nourishing Pill only sounds impressive; its effect on repairing the soul is just so-so.
After Su Jiujiu consumed the Soul Nourishing Pill, her severely injured soul did not show any significant repair.
Shen Qinghan was powerless to do anything about it.
She had done everything she could to help, but Su Jiujiu still looked sickly.
From now on, Su Jiujiu can only rely on her own healing abilities to repair the damage to her body.
Beside him, Lin Zichen took out all of the dozen or so Blood Demon Flower from his Storage Space.
These are evolutionary resources that he and Shen Qinghan collected when they explored the dense forest.
Let's eat half of it each.
As he spoke, Lin Zichen handed half of the Blood Demon Flower to Shen Qinghan, instructing her to eat it, refine and absorb it, and enhance the strength of her blood and qi.
Shen Qinghan shook her head, refusing to accept the Blood Demon Flower, and said instead:
"Go ahead and eat. Your Biological Rank is already Rare, Tier 9. One more evolution and you'll be Epic. All the evolution resources you get from now on are for you to eat. Let's help you evolve to Epic level first."
"..."
Seeing that Shen Qinghan had already said so, Lin Zichen didn't stand on ceremony with her. "Alright, then I'll eat all these Blood Demon Flower. I'll make up for it for you after I evolve to Epic level."
After saying that, Lin Zichen ate all the Blood Demon Flower in his hand and swallowed them to refine them.
As time went on...
The Blood Demon Flower that Lin Zichen had swallowed were refined and absorbed one after another.
At the same time, the strength of Lin Zichen's internal energy and blood was also soaring, showing a tendency to break through to the Epic level.
This critical state lasted for about ten seconds.
Suddenly, Lin Zichen opened his eyes, and the biological pressure emanating from his body far exceeded that of Rare Tier 9 expert, reaching the Epic level that could make him a powerful figure!
