Near the north gate of Shuicheng.
As Xiao Chen was Rapid Movement, a long sword suddenly appeared in his hand. A red light flashed on the sword, and the next moment, a Sword Qi blasted towards the nearby woods.
"Ouch!" A scream rang out.
A figure was seen falling directly from the tree, splitting in two while still in mid-air.
Strangely, after the two halves of the body landed, they each stood up on one leg.
To Xiao Chen's astonishment, a Masai occurred, and each area transformed into its own independent location.
One is divided into two, one becomes two.
"It's you? What the hell are you?" Xiao Chen recognized him; this was the man with the mustache he had seen in Secluded Passage Forest last night.
Although there are countless martial arts techniques and skills, I have never heard of anyone who, after being split in two, not only survives but also transforms into two.
This is too bizarre.
Xiao Chen carefully Perception them and found that both of them were Martial Practitioner at the Body Tempering Realm Ninth Layer, and both were physical entities.
It is not Clone that has been Transformation.
"Hey, aren't you going a bit too far? You attacked me with a sword the moment we met. If I didn't have some skills, I'd be dead!"
"Oh, let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Bei, Lin as in forest, Bei as in north, and I'm a professional Blood Droplet."
"Why are you following me?" Xiao Chen's longsword flashed with red light, as if he was about to unleash a powerful attack at the slightest provocation.
"I'm a little short on cash lately, can I borrow some Yuan Crystal )?"
"Whoosh!" Xiao Chen slashed out with his sword horizontally, without any wasted words, showing decisiveness and ruthlessness.
It's clear that Xiao Chen isn't someone who's indecisive.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he, Tianji, and Meng Po were chased all the way from Northern Yuan.
Even the slightest hesitation could mean the difference between life and death.
The two Lin Bei were cut in half at the waist into four pieces.
But the next moment, a Masai pulsed and grew, and in the blink of an eye, the four halves of Lin Bei became four independent and complete Lin Bei.
Two became four.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen felt a chill run down his spine.
This scene was truly bizarre.
"Hey, I just want to borrow some Yuan Crystal, no need to be so nervous, right? Besides, I don't need much, just a Sixth Pin storage bag and one hundred million Yuan Crystal," one of Lin Bei's said.
"I didn't even say we'd split it in half when we meet. You should be content with just a third!" another Lin Bei added.
"Don't worry, as long as we take this money, I guarantee no one will know what happened in Salt City," said the third Lin Bei.
"Stop drawing your sword! You can't kill me! Damn it, you're not a martial arts expert... Ouch!"
Before Lin Bei could finish speaking, he was sliced into hundreds of pieces by dozens of terrifying Sword Qi.
Xiao Chen stared coldly at the Masai on the ground. He didn't believe that Lin Bei could still be alive after all this.
However, what happened next made Xiao Chen gasp in shock.
Lin Bei, which was originally Cutting hundreds of Masai pieces, looks like it's sprouting bean sprouts.
Each Masai was Rapid Speed expanding and growing, and in the blink of an eye, a dense Lin Bei had sprung up again before our eyes.
This scene made Xiao Chen's forehead tingle.
What kind of Kung Fu Hustle is this? How can such a skill exist in this world?
If that's the case, doesn't it mean that Lin Bei can never be killed?
How is that possible?
"You idiot, I told you you couldn't kill me, and you still tried? Did you think I couldn't beat you?" Lin Bei, the leader, said, picking up a tree branch from the ground.
The other Lin Bei Clone followed suit, some picking up tree branches, and others plucking a blade of grass leaf if they didn't have any.
"Drink! Kill!" Almost all of Lin Bei's attacked at the same time.
A deadly killing intent instantly enveloped Xiao Chen's entire body.
Xiao Chen could clearly feel that an Perception and terrifying force had locked onto him.
Although Xiao Chen had not yet Dao Comprehension, he was very clear that this was the power of the Dao.
"Hey, do you really want to die? At least give me some kind of response!" Lin Bei couldn't help but remind Xiao Chen when he saw Xiao Chen just standing there dumbfounded.
He never intended to kill Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen reached into his waistband and a small white pouch, no bigger than the palm of his hand, appeared in his palm.
He casually tossed it to Lin Bei.
Lin Bei inspected it and nodded in satisfaction.
With these Yuan Crystal, there would be enough for his younger sister to use for a hundred or two hundred years.
"Hehe, thanks!" Lin Bei withdrew his aura, and the next moment, all his Clone rushed towards the center, instantly merging the hundreds of Lin Bei back into one.
"What kind of cultivation technique are you practicing?" Xiao Chen couldn't contain his curiosity and asked again.
"I don't know either!" Lin Bei shrugged.
Seeing Xiao Chen's expression, Lin Bei explained, "This is an ability I suddenly and inexplicably gained. It allows me to devour living beings and acquire their innate Innate Divine Ability."
"For example, this Clone Technique is the ability of some kind of water insect. As long as it is not instantly reduced to ashes, even if it is divided into thousands or tens of thousands of parts, each part can grow into an independent individual."
Xiao Chen frowned and asked, "A sudden ability?"
He couldn't help but think of his ability to synthesize Yuan Artifact, which also seemed to have appeared suddenly.
Xiao Chen opened his mouth as if to ask something, but then heard Lin Bei say, "I suspect this is related to Ling Yi, related to Ling Yi's Heavenly Dao Blessing ability!"
"How do you know all this?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Well, you can probably understand it as another ability of mine: if I want, nothing within a radius of ten thousand miles can escape my eyes and ears."
"So, you know everything we talked about yesterday?"
"That's right, otherwise why would I dare to blackmail you?"
Damn it, extorting others and talking so self-righteously, I want to stab him again, he's so damn despicable.
"Do you really think this is related to Ling Yi, or to the Heavenly Dao Blessing?" Xiao Chen asked rhetorically.
"If our reasoning is correct, we don't know if the Heavenly Dao Blessing is truly real, but our unusual situation is definitely related to Ling Yi."
Xiao Chen nodded. "Based on our speculation, Ling Yi's Heavenly Dao Blessing is likely real, but Ling Yi probably can't control it."
"As long as you stay by Ling Yi's side, there's a chance you'll receive Heavenly Dao Blessing. You should know that we're enemies with Ling Yi, even though I was implicated by Meng Po and Tianji."
"If Ling Yi can truly control the Heavenly Dao Blessing, then he will definitely take back the abilities from the three of us."
"Is that so? I live right next door to Ling Yi," Lin Bei said.
"Whether it's true or not, just ask Ling Yi."
Xiao Chen was dumbfounded. "How should I ask? Just ask directly?"
"Perhaps, we should beat him up first and then ask?"
Xiao Chen was speechless. "Do you think someone who can Heavenly Dao Blessing upon others is that simple? Anyway, with Superpower Person, improving your own strength as quickly as possible is the most important thing."
"Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Ling Yi could just take it back once he was able to control it."
"That makes sense. But I've already explored most of the Demonic Beast in the area. It seems we'll be traveling together for a while."
Xiao Chen did not refuse.
Through their brief interaction, he could tell that Lin Bei was a man with a strong sense of principles.
Otherwise, with Lin Bei's strength, killing him would be a piece of cake.
At that time, everything in my storage bag will belong to him.
"To get from Water City to Stone City, you need to pass through Ten Thousand Longevities Valley, where countless Demonic Beast dwell, including some said to be at the Venerable Grade Demonic Beast."
"Then what?"
"Cooperate!"
After a pause, Lin Bei said, "Of course, cooperation is based on a win-win situation for both parties. I can create ability orbs, which means that the abilities I obtain from other Demonic Beast can Copy into these orbs."
Xiao Chen's eyes widened. "You don't mean that if someone uses this power ball, they can gain your power, like Clone?"
"Right!"
No side effects?
"You want side effects? Then I can give you some."
Xiao Chen rolled his eyes. Only a fool would want side effects. But Lin Bei's words were also telling him that the power ball could be used, but the power could be withdrawn at any time.
Lin Bei has now been quite frank.
"I provide you with Yuan Artifact, and you give me ability orbs?"
That's perfect.
He has absolute control over the Yuan Artifact he synthesizes, and even if he gives them away, he can take them back at any time.
It's the same as Lin Bei's ability ball.
"Yes, shall we cooperate?" Lin Bei asked.
"Cooperation!" This is a powerful alliance; only a fool wouldn't cooperate.
It's much more comfortable to cooperate with Lin Bei than with Meng Po and Meng Po Tianji.
These two women are incredibly cunning; if I stay with them, I'll be sold out sooner or later.
Lin Bei immediately created a Clone and handed the Yuan Crystal to Clone, saying, "Take this to my sister and protect her while you're at it."
"That's my sister too!" the Clone said.
The next moment, it transformed into a gust of Gale and vanished.
"Won't this Clone of yours betray you?" Xiao Chen asked curiously, glancing at the departing Clone.
"I can't betray you; I can recall my Clone at any time."
"That's good!"
"Let's go, after we get back from Stone City, we'll go see Ling Yi."
Xiao Chen nodded.
The two then headed north.
Around nine o'clock in the morning, Ling Yi, along with Yaoguang, Yuan Ziyi, and Situ Wan'er, left through the Ximen and headed towards the most Heavenly Baleful Energy City.
Heavenly Baleful Energy City is located at the center of four cities: Medicine City, Salt City, Water City, and Stone City.
To reach Heavenly Baleful Energy City, one must pass through Secluded Passage Forest, cross Qilin Cliff, Hengduan Grassland Sole Venerable Peak Plain, and finally arrive at Sole Venerable Peak, where Heavenly Baleful Energy City is located.
The entire journey is approximately two hundred kilometers.
" Secluded Passage Forest is just a plain and mountain forest," Situ Wan'er explained.
"It's called Secluded Passage Forest because it's densely wooded, half of it is willow trees and half is bamboo."
"Walking through the woods, there's a sense of Nether Communion."
Ling Yi nodded; the environment here was indeed quite nice.
None of them were in a hurry to get going, so they neither used any movement techniques nor flew through the air.
We Liuliu along for a while, and it wasn't until around three in the afternoon that we arrived at this Secluded Passage Forest.
"The scenery is beautiful, but unfortunately, there are always some people who spoil the view, which is a bit annoying!"
As soon as they reached the boundary between the willow trees and the bamboo grove, Ling Yi couldn't help but frown.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a volley of crossbow bolts rained down from the Lin Zhong, heading straight for Ling Yi and his companions.
Just as Shangguan Wan'er and the other two women were about to make their move, they saw Ling Yi raise his right hand and push it forward into the Void.
The crossbow bolts that were originally flying towards them were all frozen in mid-air.
"Snap!" Ling Yi snapped his the Snap, and the crossbow bolts were instantly shattered into powder.
With a gust of wind, Piu-piu and fell to the ground.
