Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Killing the Ambusher

"This guy, his talents are indeed outstanding. How long has he studied the True Meaning of the Wind and the thunder technique? He’s already able to fuse them together."

Watching the dazzling lights on the sword in Lin Chen’s hand, the man in grey was filled with terror.

After fusing the two powers and channeling them into the Flowing Light Sword, Lin Chen’s eyes brimmed with a cold murderous intent as he slowly turned his gaze to the man in grey.

"Unfortunately for you, you want to kill me, and I share the same idea," Lin Chen said.

"And it’s not just your command token I want, but all the cultivation resources and treasures on you," he added, a hint of arrogance playing on his lips.

"Boy, your talents indeed make one envious and jealous. However, being so high-profile before you’ve fully grown will only hasten your death," the man in grey retorted.

"Do you really think you’re the only one with such methods? Today, I will cripple you. Just thinking about crushing your bones one by one later fills me with an exhilarating pleasure," the man said, his lips curled into a cold smile as if slaughtering Lin Chen was an immensely enjoyable affair for him.

Hum—

As he spoke, the man in grey took out a Jade Vial from his bosom, took a swig, and then his aura began to change.

Lin Chen sensed that the man’s original Wood Attribute cultivation, after drinking a mouthful from the Jade Vial’s contents, actually transformed into Fire, and it was an extremely violent Fire Attribute energy at that.

Hum—

Humming—

The man opened his mouth wide, and a massive Flame Breath spewed out, heading straight towards Lin Chen.

"Such intense flames, but compared to the Blue Lotus Divine Flame of the Second Soul Division, they’re quite insignificant," Lin Chen remarked.

Lin Chen, looking at the flames rushing at him, didn’t dodge but instead raised his palm towards the incoming Flames.

Whoo, whoo—

The Primordial Transformation Art within Lin Chen’s body circulated, creating a powerful suction force that instantly absorbed the Flame Breath from the man.

"Impressive power, but the energy is not very high," Lin Chen commented casually, his eyes landing on the Jade Vial in the man’s hand, which suddenly intrigued him.

"You can absorb my Flame Breath?" The man in grey, seeing Lin Chen’s unexpected absorption technique, was momentarily stunned.

Immediately, his face lit up with manic joy because he knew that Lin Chen must possess an enormously great opportunity. If he were to kill Lin Chen, that opportunity would be his.

Hum—

At that moment, atop the broadsword in the man’s hand blazed wild flames; then, he brandished his flaming broadsword and charged at Lin Chen.

"Just in time," Lin Chen declared.

Wielding the Flowing Light Sword, Lin Chen leapt into action, clashing with the man.

Sword light and blade shadow burst forth in the secret realm’s woods, leaving countless marks on the surrounding trees due to their attacks.

Strangely, despite the ferocity of their assault, the trees were not destroyed, indicating that the trees in this area of the ruins were anything but ordinary.

Boom—

Rumbling—

The ground bore numerous deep ravines due to their skirmish.

Sometime later, the man in grey’s expression had turned sour.

After a series of exchanges, he found to his dismay that he was completely suppressed by Lin Chen, barely managing to hang on.

"I must say, your defensive power is commendable. If the commotion we caused here wasn’t so large, I might have considered keeping you around as a sparring partner," Lin Chen remarked.

"Alas, now is not the time."

"So, you can die," he concluded.

With that, Lin Chen brandished his sword and struck again, then instantly disappeared from the spot.

The disappearance alarmed the man in grey, who quickly released his Spiritual Sense in all directions but couldn’t sense Lin Chen’s presence at all.

"Fool, whom are you looking for?" Just when the man in grey was startled by how Lin Chen had managed to escape, Lin Chen’s voice suddenly came from behind him.

Startled, the man in grey changed his expression and swung his broadsword toward his back, but a sharp sword pierced his body from behind, skewering him completely.

"You..."

The man in grey felt the Flowing Light Sword entering his body, with two powerful forces instantly beginning to ravage his insides.

His eyes widened as he was filled with infinite regret.

If he had another chance, he certainly would not have provoked Lin Chen.

Lin Chen’s fearsomeness was not something he could have ever afforded to provoke.

"Next life, be smarter," Lin Chen advised.

Lin Chen pulled the sword out of the man’s body and pushed him to the ground.

Subsequently, Lin Chen picked up the man in grey’s Storage Bag and took out a command token from it.

After examining the contents of the Storage Bag, Lin Chen found that although the man’s cultivation wasn’t profound, the treasures inside the bag were considerably abundant.

Finally, Lin Chen identified a small Jade Vial hidden in a corner of the Storage Bag.

"Essence Blood of some Fire Attribute Magical Beast, huh? To think he used it to stimulate his Wood Attribute as a Bloodthirsty Medicinal Guide; what a waste," Lin Chen thought.

Lin Chen recalled that the man in grey had consumed it to temporarily gain Fire Attribute powers. Due to his Wood Attribute nature, he could utilize the essence blood of this Fire Attribute Magical Beast to its fullest potential. Alas, it was such a pity for him to encounter Lin Chen, for if he had faced any other Martial Artist, perhaps he indeed could have used this power to dominate his opponent.
