Ye Yao's clothes were tattered and covered in ice crystals, and her hair was also frozen solid. The situation was even worse for her brothers who had ascended with her.
You should know that Ye Yao was a powerful empress in her previous life, and she had never suffered such humiliation before.
Lin Chen's eyes changed, becoming even more bloodshot. In his eyes, the Frozen Ravine was about to turn into a living hell.
Although he didn't know the extent of his opponent's supernatural abilities to have done this to Ye Yao, Lin Chen was fearless at the moment. He had never backed down even in the face of Li Jue's Spiritual Tempering Realm strength.
"You, everything here, will die." Lin Chen said each word with gritted teeth, wishing he could tear them apart immediately, but reason told him it wasn't that simple.
"Lin Chen, you have injured two of my clan's direct blood relatives. I haven't even settled things with you yet, but today is your death day." At the forefront of the formation stood an old man with white eyebrows. His aura appeared and disappeared intermittently, making Lin Chen feel that he seemed like an old ghost.
"I didn't expect you to be able to get into the depths of the Frozen Abyss so quickly. The faster you go, the happier I am, because you've already fallen into the trap." The white-browed old man led the group and laughed heartily at Lin Chen.
"I've heard you have exceptional talent and unparalleled blood essence. My killing move hasn't been made yet, because there are many who want to kill you. I'm just doing you a favor." After saying this, Bai Mei led his men to retreat.
This left Lin Chen completely bewildered. What was going on? Did someone want to take his life? Before he could think, he heard the roars of spirit beasts coming from the depths of the Frozen Ravine and from the caves on both sides.
In the blink of an eye, all the spirit beasts appeared in a grand procession, densely packed in the sky and on the ground. Fortunately, Lin Chen only saw a few at the Heavenly Spirit level; most of them were Supreme level spirit beasts.
But they were outnumbered; no one could hold out for long. Lin Chen suddenly understood what the white-browed man had said earlier: "Incomparable essence blood, formidable talent." He must have been exaggerating his abilities, portraying him as a lone cub of a beast realm spirit beast. These spirit beasts were all after his essence blood.
"How despicable." Cold sweat broke out on Lin Chen's forehead. It was indeed a bit tricky to deal with, because most of the spirit beasts here were of the ice or water attribute.
There was also a White Eyebrows of unknown strength behind her, and she had to conserve most of her energy to fight him, otherwise Ye Yao would still be in danger.
We have no choice but to fight this battle with our backs against the wall.
Lin Chen took out two more spirit crystals and swallowed them in one gulp. His body shimmered with light, and his energy rapidly increased.
"Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique, activate!" A purple beam of light extended from Lin Chen's side, and at the same time, his size began to increase rapidly, his power growing exponentially. This was a system technique he had undoubtedly obtained in the lower realm, allowing him to break through his own limitations in a short period of time using external force, enabling him to grow instantly.
Moreover, as its size increases, the attacks it releases are also enhanced, allowing it to unleash wide-area damage and achieve eternal stillness.
"Howl!" The spirit beasts kept charging towards Lin Chen, their eyes filled with greed, wishing they could devour him alive immediately.
Bai Mei led Ye Yao and the others to the cliff behind them. Looking at the scene, he said bluntly, "Let's see how much ability this kid has. Today, I will collect his corpse."
"Come on, bring it on." Lin Chen's signature cold smile reappeared on his face, which meant that victory was assured and he was about to unleash a massacre.
【Blazing Phoenix, Rise】
[Endless Devouring, Now]
He used wide-range attacks for everything, as single-target attacks were impractical; this kind of situation was best suited for burning.
Everyone knows that ice counters fire, but they all forget a crucial prerequisite: bloodline. You must know what kind of bloodline Lin Chen possesses—a fusion with a divine-level spirit beast. Wouldn't these ordinary spirit beasts be utterly suppressed?
Wherever the Blazing Fire Phoenix swept past, the running spirit beasts were frozen in place and instantly burned to a crisp. Those spirit beasts that had reached the Void Breaking stage could still withstand the attack with their physical bodies. The endless devouring and reaping became their nightmare.
Before long, the once mighty army of spirit beasts became scattered. Lin Chen's enormous figure, with its dazzling wings, floated in the air, looking down at these ant-like beings on the ground.
"It's over. If you still don't turn back and want to suck my life essence, then I'm sorry." Lin Chen was like a holy lord looking down on the world.
The leader was a Frostblood Python at the Supreme Saint realm. Looking at the scene, it said to Lin Chen, "Honorable Spirit Beast Master, we had no intention of offending you. We only heard one side of the story from others. We hope you can let us go. From now on, all the spirit beasts in the Frost Valley will be at your command."
"Get out of here."
Lin Chen was too lazy to entangle with them for too long, after all, he didn't know Ye Yao's current condition. He quickly dealt with them, as his enhanced state couldn't be maintained for too long. He needed to strike while the iron was hot and quickly take care of that white-browed guy.
Lin Chen began rushing towards the cliff, continuing to consume spirit crystals to replenish his energy as he went. After all, there were spirit crystals everywhere along the way, although most of them were at the Supreme Spirit Crystal level, but that didn't affect his replenishment at all. He understood the principle of plenty.
Bai Mei felt a pang of panic as he looked at Lin Chen. He couldn't discern Lin Chen's strength, which was probably above the Saint Realm. But then he thought that he was already at the Half-Spirit Tempering Realm, so dealing with him shouldn't be a problem.
The corpses of the dead spirit beasts in the Frozen Valley had frozen into ice, standing behind Lin Chen like advancing guards.
Lin Chen arrived at the top of the ice cliff, his eyes fixed on Bai Mei. Bai Mei stepped forward and said to Lin Chen, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect you to be able to get here so easily. It seems I underestimated you."
"Enough with the chit-chat, let's get started."
"The system gave me the attribute to retrieve."
"Ding, retrieval successful"

[Overall assessment: It will take some effort to defeat him; his own strength is average, but you need to be careful of his chilling aura.]
Lin Chen scoffed, "Is that all?"
"Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique, activate."
Lin Chen was still preparing to launch a surprise attack from behind with "Spiritual Void Strike" to deliver a fatal blow.
"Heavenly Cold Dao Technique, activate!" Nine rings of spiritual energy emanated from Xing Mie's body, instantly transforming into a protective shield. Lin Chen's attack was also neutralized.
"Kill! Spiritual Shadow, appear! Blazing Phoenix, swoop down!" Another attack came from behind, and Xing Mie couldn't react in time, taking the hit directly. His protective shield shattered instantly.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, staining a patch of white snow red. A wave of shock washed over him; he couldn't even fathom its power. He suddenly realized that the Xing family had offended a monster.
