Chapter 606: Chapter 606 Predicament

"Kid, hand over that spiritual medicine and I can spare your life," Mao Yucheng glared at Lin Chen and bellowed loudly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen paid no heed and quickly tucked the harvested spiritual medicine into his pouch, then immediately drew his spear and clashed with Mao Yucheng.

Moments later, Mao Yucheng realized he was no match for Lin Chen and, despite his rage, he could do nothing about it.

Thus, he could only turn his attention to another stalk of spiritual medicine.

Originally, there were only four stalks of spiritual medicine in the central area, and after Mao Yucheng and Lin Chen each took one, there were two left.

The remaining two were being contended for by Wuxiang, Liu He, Wu Yan, and others.

Seeing Mao Yucheng making a move towards the remaining spiritual medicines, naturally, Lin Chen would not let him succeed and immediately took action to stop him.

It wasn’t just Lin Chen who was stopping Mao Yucheng, but also Cao Zhixiong and the Spiky Great Demon, among others.

Facing the combined obstruction from the Divine Flame Alliance and others, Mao Yucheng found it difficult to compete; let alone snatching the spiritual medicine, even resisting was proving to be tough.

However, Lin Chen and the others all had their own calculations and did not fully commit to fighting Mao Yucheng; otherwise, what Mao Yucheng faced would be much more than simple obstruction.

Martial Artists from all around began to converge toward the location of the Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine, but before they could get close, they were repelled by the shockwaves of the fighting, showing fear on their faces and scattering in different directions.

They turned to contest for the fifth-grade spiritual medicine, and even though the fifth-grade spiritual medicine was also a hundred thousand years old and had many contenders, the odds of winning were better than competing with powerful Heavenly Prides like Lin Chen for the Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine, and the risk was comparatively lower.

Competing with Lin Chen and others for the Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine would likely cost them their lives.

Whoosh whoosh—

Suddenly, at the moment when Lin Chen was keeping Mao Yucheng in check, Cao Zhixiong made a quick move and successfully seized the third stalk of spiritual medicine.

Speaking of which, they had to thank Lin Chen for holding up Mao Yucheng.

If it hadn’t been for Lin Chen, they might not have been able to stop Mao Yucheng, and Red Soul Hall would have gotten more than just one stalk of spiritual medicine.

Now, only the last stalk of Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine remained in the area.

"This guy sure has some tricks up his sleeve. It seems I was narrow-minded and looked down on others with arrogance," Cao Zhixiong felt quite emotional after grabbing that stalk of Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine. At this moment, his view of Lin Chen had improved a lot, and he even felt some gratitude towards him in his heart.

After all, it was because of Lin Chen holding back Mao Yucheng that he had the opportunity.

Actually, the animosity between Cao Zhixiong and Lin Chen wasn’t very significant, it was merely due to Yu Weilian and Xia Wanxin.

As a man, naturally, he loved beautiful women, and Cao Zhixiong’s issue with Lin Chen was merely because Lin Chen, with his mere Fourth Level Reverting Void Realm cultivation, was not worthy of Yu Weilian and Xia Wanxin.

Having two nation-destroying beauties revolving around such a waste, Cao Zhixiong was of course dissatisfied.

So he had harbored great hostility towards Lin Chen before.

But now, thanks to Lin Chen’s help in obtaining a Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine and witnessing Lin Chen’s formidable strength, his prejudice against Lin Chen vanished in an instant, and he even felt a tinge of admiration.

At this moment, seeing the third stalk of spiritual medicine also snatched by someone from Divine Flame Sect, Mao Yucheng became extremely furious.

Buzz—

A surge of intense Yin Sha Qi erupted from Mao Yucheng. He infused the Yin Sha Qi into his weapon and slashed at Liu He, who was vying for the fourth stalk of spiritual medicine.

Liu He was close to successfully grabbing that stalk of Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine when he suddenly felt a bone-chilling aura attacking from behind.

Seeing this, Liu He’s face drastically changed.

But if he were to divert his attention to fend off Mao Yucheng now, he would miss out on the spiritual medicine.

If he passed up this chance, the spiritual medicine would surely be taken by someone else.

So, Liu He gritted his teeth and decided to endure Mao Yucheng’s attack just to secure the spiritual medicine before him.

Boom—

Mao Yucheng’s attack hit Liu He, who, while sustaining the blow, seized the spiritual medicine.

After obtaining the Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine, Liu He quickly placed it in a spiritual wood box and then into his Spatial Ring.

However, having withstood Mao Yucheng’s assault, he was severely wounded.

If someone around him made a move now, they wouldn’t even need to join forces; just about any one of them attacking him could probably snatch away the Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine from his hands.

Lin Chen squinted his eyes, his gaze falling upon Liu He.

There were many grudges between Lin Chen and the martial artists of Bodhi Hall, and inside the ruins, Lin Chen had killed warriors from Bodhi Hall more than once.

However, those guys had been asking for it, and Lin Chen killing them was only what they deserved.

But the current situation was different. With the Divine Flame Alliance and the Six Great Sects standing together, now opposing Red Soul Hall, Lin Chen naturally couldn’t commit an act of killing for treasure.

Not only that, but it was necessary for everyone to protect Liu He from Mao Yucheng’s attack.

At this time, the Spiky Great Demon, after clashing with the others, had suffered some injuries, but nothing too severe. Yet, their Demon Race had not managed to secure even one stalk of Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine.

Now, if the Demon Race wanted to obtain Sixth-Grade Spiritual Medicine, they only had two choices: either to strike against the people from Divine Flame Alliance or to launch an attack against those from Red Soul Hall.

However, neither option was easy for him because neither Divine Flame Alliance nor Red Soul Hall was someone he could provoke lightly at the moment.
