Just as Lian Shang and Lin Ye were facing off, the battle between Lin Jinglong and Ye Chen was actually coming to an end.
Ye Chen, already severely injured, had a dim gaze.
He shook his head and said, "Fine, I'll let you go this time. Everyone else, come with me and we'll leave!"
The surviving members of the Night Clan finally received orders to flee, as they had long since given up on staying and fighting Lin Jinglong.
After all, they didn't even have a chance to make a move.
The battle at the ninth rank is terrifying!
But the elders are still fighting here, and they can't leave immediately, so they can only stay and accompany them.
Hearing what Ye Chen said made them flee the place as quickly as possible.
Lin Jinglong did not continue to pursue them.
Qi Shenglong said with a pained expression, "You're just going to let them go like this? Once they go back, everything we've planned will be exposed!"
"It's too late. They've come in hundreds; it's impossible to kill them all."
Lin Jinglong said in a calm tone.
Qi Shenglong was immediately helpless.
At this moment, Lin Jinglong sneered, "Why continue to hide my identity? I already have ninth-tier combat power. After absorbing Ye Chen, I will be even stronger than I am now. Therefore, you can also accept my protection!"
"I... will accept your protection?"
Qi Shenglong looked dazed.
Not long ago, Lin Jinglong was just a young junior with considerable potential in his eyes.
But only a few days have passed.
Instead, he became the junior whom Lin Jinglong needed to protect.
His expression became quite interesting. He glanced at his apprentice not far away, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Lian Shang.
He waved his hand helplessly, frowned and said, "Lin Ye, let Lian Shang go and hurry up and come protect your master. I'm too weak right now!"
Lin Jinglong had drained too much of his life force and vitality. If he continued like this, the fluctuations in the battle could very well cost him his life. Therefore, he needed Lin Ye's protection.
Besides, it would probably take him several years to replenish his qi and blood, which filled his heart with gloom.
But what Lin Jinglong said still made him somewhat tempted.
"Many things will be exposed. If we can really get Lin Jinglong's protection, then maybe we can change our course of action. I, Qi Shenglong, don't necessarily want to be trapped inside the Tianlong Sect."
"In fact, if Lin Jinglong really rises to power, then what does the Heavenly Dragon Sect amount to?"
"The invincible Lin once even crippled the Eternal Sect!"
Qi Shenglong was also thinking to himself.
As he watched Lin Jinglong chase after Ye Chen, he inexplicably felt that the image of the former Lin Wudi had appeared in this guy.
Meanwhile, after Lian Shang successfully escaped, he disregarded the gazes of others present and fled the place in a disheveled state. If Qi Shenglong hadn't spared him during the previous battle with Lin Ye, he would have died soon afterward.
"We must hurry back and inform the others what happened here. Lin Jinglong has appeared. He is Qi Tianyang, or rather, that guy named Lin Youtian from before. He is also Lin Jinglong. The Zhexian Hall is a scam. It's all Qi Jinglong's conspiracy!"
His eyes gleamed with a sharp light. Once he returned and found Elder Qin Tai, a ninth-level elder, and explained the situation, what could Lin Jinglong do?
And he also lost one of his strongest rivals, Lin Ye.
The election of the patriarch will even be brought forward!
With this in mind, he made his escape as quickly as possible.
At this moment, Lin Jinglong was also chasing Ye Chen all the way. He did not chase after the other members of the Ye family, but was determined to keep Ye Chen. His persistence caused Ye Chen's expression to change.
His face was taut, and he roared as he coughed up blood, "Lin Jinglong, what exactly do you want to do?"
"What's the problem?"
Lin Jinglong looked at him with amusement.
At this point, he was becoming increasingly adept at handling the situation.
Ye Chen said angrily, "I am a ninth-level elder. It won't be easy for you to kill me. Why waste so much energy and energy chasing after me? Anyway, what you've revealed is already destined!"
"Killing you is not to silence you, but to devour your Heavenly Dao power and your life force. After all, in such a vast Upper Realm, there aren't many ninth-rank beings like you, are there?"
Lin Jinglong looked at him with a cold smile.
Keep the hunt going!
This Nightfall itself is an exposure of the Heavenly Dao. Next, the Heavenly Dao Records of the Lower Realm will appear, and more Heavenly Dao cores will emerge. Therefore, if he can obtain the power of the Heavenly Dao of the Upper Realm...
It can speed up the process of refining and devouring the Heavenly Dao Core.
His level of understanding can continue to rise, perhaps even reaching an unprecedented level.
But all of this is predicated on his desire to seize the Heavenly Dao Record!
Before that, he needs to consume Ye Chen to replenish his energy consumed in the battle and unleash his potential.
After Ye Chen sensed Lin Jinglong's astonishing killing intent,
His mind was filled with panic. This guy was really too crazy. A dignified ninth-level elder was being hunted down to this extent.
Such a thing is extremely rare in the entire history of the Upper Realm.
“Having reached our level, there’s no need to fight to the death. You, Lin Jinglong, are too naive, just like Lin Wudi back then. He was even stronger than you are now, but he still died in the end, didn’t he?”
You are not qualified to judge him.
Lin Jinglong looked at the defeated general with a mocking expression.
Unbeknownst to them, the two had already arrived near the Heavenly Dao Cave, which was not far from where they had been before. The Heavenly Dao Record had also appeared there.
Lin Jinglong had barely approached when he sensed a subtle resonance with the Heavenly Dao, as if a Heavenly Dao diagram existed at the end of the cave or at another entrance.
“The people of the Eternal Sect have sealed off this place. Although Ye Chen was in a panic, he knew where his only way out was. However, I cannot allow him to successfully enter the territory of the Eternal Sect and accept their protection.”
"Die!"
Lin Jinglong raised the Heavenly Dao Spear and threw it, piercing Ye Chen's chest and causing the Ye clan elder to stagger and fall at the entrance of the Heavenly Dao Cave.
The elite troops of the Eternal Sect who remained here rushed out.
Among them were members of the Punishment Hall.
Qian Wu, who had already recovered to the early stage of the sixth rank, was also speechless with astonishment when he saw Lin Jinglong in his current state.
As for the others around him, their focus wasn't on Lin Jinglong, but rather on Ye Chen, whose heart had been pierced by the Heavenly Dao Spear.
After seeing the person's face clearly, they were all shocked.
"A ninth-level elder was pierced through by a spear and nearly perished!"
What happened here?
Who exactly is that young man?
The crowd rushed out, including Xie Tianlai, the incoming head of the Punishment Hall who had previously clashed with Qian Wu.
He sternly rebuked Lin Jinglong.
"Halt! Elder Ye is a member of our Eternal Sect! How dare you injure him? Who are you?!"
