Chapter 266 Return
"I know." Huo Lin said as he jumped onto the platform.
Will it succeed?
Huo Lin opened the coffin lid and lay down in it. "At this point, there's no turning back. Whether we succeed or not, we have to try. Success or failure depends on this one move."
After the coffin lid closed automatically, Huo Lin raised his hand and made a complicated gesture, then chanted a spell and activated the formation below.
A dazzling red light burst out from below, and the iron chains connecting the coffins vibrated violently, making a clanging sound.
Huo Lin suddenly felt his whole body getting hot, as if his body was being pulled invisibly, and even his soul felt like it was burning, causing him unbearable pain.
However, the next second, something unexpected happened.
All I heard was a loud bang, as if the sarcophagus was exploding.
【What happened? Failed?】
【Or is it Li Zhi who came out? 】
Huo Lin was affected and spat out a mouthful of blood. He raised his hand, opened the coffin lid, and jumped out of the coffin.
Before he could stand firmly, his body was suddenly entangled by something, and then flew uncontrollably in a certain direction.
Huo Lin's expression changed. He looked up and saw Li Yanjing's body floating in the air with an expressionless face.
The originally black eyeballs turned golden, and they were filled with a biting coldness and indescribable pressure.
The whole person exudes a powerful and mysterious aura that makes people tremble.
He doesn't look like an ordinary child at all, he is extremely dangerous.
【What's going on? What's wrong with this child? 】
[Could it be that I made a mistake and made him an immortal?!]
Before Huo Lin could respond to the main personality in his mind, he was already controlled by Li Yanjing in front of him.
Naturally, he would not let himself be bullied like that, so he immediately resisted. However, all his blows to the opponent were bounced off by a golden barrier.
Li Yanjing lightly pointed his finger downwards, and saw Huo Lin falling directly from the air to the ground at a high speed.
With a "bang", a hole was smashed directly into the ground.
Huo Lin spat out another mouthful of blood. Several of his ribs were broken. It was obvious that there was a huge gap in strength between them. He was no match for his opponent at all.
The other party could beat him like this with just one finger.
Huo Lin endured the pain and climbed out of the pit. Looking at Li Yanjing who fell in front of him, his expression was filled with fear. He was sure that this was not a human at all.
He covered his chest and gasped, "You, who are you?"
Li Yanjing put his hands behind his back, looking mature for his age, and said slowly, "You are not worthy of knowing my name."
When Huo Lin heard him call himself "this master", he knew that he must be from an important background. Could it be that his ritual had attracted this powerful creature to possess the child?
But he didn't have time to think too much. The current situation was not a question of whether he could become an immortal. The most important thing was to save his life.
Huo Lin collected his thoughts and lowered his head. "I had no idea you were actually in this child's body. No offense intended. It was all just a misunderstanding. Can we please let this go?"
Li Yanjing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is it possible that this body originally belonged to me?"
“…”
Huo Lin's eyelids twitched. What the hell, this body is his?
【What should I do? Is there any way to escape? 】
Huo Lin did not respond to the voice in his mind. His eyes flickered and he was ready to use the same trick again to drag the man in front of him into the illusion. Just a few seconds would be enough for him to escape.
Although there is a price to pay, as long as he successfully escapes, he can extend his life later.
Huo Lin covered his mouth and coughed, saying in disbelief: "How is this possible? I've seen it, and this body is clearly that of a child..."
He was talking to buy time, and the hand stained with blood from his heart was quietly put behind his back as if nothing had happened.
Li Yanjing looked down at him and naturally saw all his little movements. Without saying any more words, he waved his hand and a golden ball of light with terrifying power flew directly towards Huo Lin.
[Oh no! Get out of the way!]
Huo Lin's pupils trembled and he couldn't react at all. Before he could create the illusion, he was hit by the ball of light.
The ball of light exploded on his body, turning into golden flames that instantly engulfed him.
But in the blink of an eye, he turned into a ball of ashes, his soul was shattered, and nothing was left.
Li Yanjing withdrew his gaze, and his eyes returned to their normal black color.
Sensing the fluctuation of spatial energy behind him, he turned around, raised his hand and waved it again, directly cutting through the space.
The next moment, Li Zhi, Tu Shanyue and Han Xuyan appeared in front of him.
Han Xuyan spat out a mouthful of blood, closed his eyes and fell to the ground, and stopped breathing instantly.
Li Zhi reacted and quickly glanced around, but didn't see Huo Lin. Her eyes then fell on Li Yanjing. She noticed something was wrong with him at first glance, and her eyes were full of vigilance. "Who are you?"
Tu Shanyue naturally noticed the change in Li Yanjing and couldn't help but widen her eyes, "This power is so strong..."
Li Yanjing looked up at Li Zhi with mixed feelings.
After all, this body originally belonged to him. Even though he had returned to his original body early due to special circumstances and recovered his original memory, he still inexplicably wanted to get close to Li Zhi, and the mother-son relationship naturally still existed.
However, what surprised him most was that Li Zhi was an old friend of his, and his entry into the six reincarnations was related to her.
But I didn't expect that this young person would become my mother in this life.
Li Yanjing was about to say something, but because his body had not yet fully merged with his soul, and he forcefully used his magic power, his mental energy was over-consumed, his eyes turned black, and he fainted.
Li Zhi's pupils suddenly contracted when he saw this, and he immediately flashed over and reached out to catch him.
Tu Shanyue walked forward, looked at Li Yanjing sleeping in her arms, and speculated, "Master Li, could it be that Huo failed and was reborn in Yanjing's body?"
Li Zhi used her spiritual power to investigate, shook her head, and said in disbelief, "No, the soul in this body is Yan Jing, not anyone else."
She lowered her hand and continued, "But this soul has changed. It possesses a powerful and profound strength. But I am certain it is just one person."
"Ah?" Tu Shanyue scratched her hair, "What on earth is going on?"
He paused, then suddenly thought of something and continued, "Or maybe something unexpected happened during the process of unlocking the coffin and Yan Jing became an immortal by chance?"
"No, this kind of immortal is just a ghost immortal, and is different from a real immortal. Yan Jing's situation is obviously not the case." Li Zhi said.
"Then why did he suddenly faint?" Tu Shanyue asked.
"It seems like he's been depleted of his mental energy." Li Zhi said, "Forget it, let's talk about it after he wakes up."
