Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Treating Wounds, Sensing Impending Danger

"Damn, how does this guy have such a powerful puppet on him."

"We absolutely can’t leave him alive, he will become a major threat in the future."

Mao Yucheng and the others watched in shock as Lin Chen summoned the Green-Haired Giant Elephant puppet.

The aura of the Green-Haired Giant Elephant reached the fourth layer of the Heavenly Human Realm, yet Lin Chen, who was merely at the fourth level of the Reverting Void Realm in Cultivation, could control such a powerful puppet.

If Lin Chen’s Cultivation were to advance further, he might be able to control puppets comparable to warriors of the Nirvana Realm.

With this thought, Mao Yucheng and the members of the Demon Race couldn’t help but inhale sharply. If Lin Chen were to survive, he would undoubtedly pose a huge hidden danger to the Red Soul Hall and the Demon Race.

The warriors from the Divine Flame Alliance also furrowed their brows, for Lin Chen’s talent might lead the Formation Sect to become the leader of the Six Great Sects, which would be a good thing for the Divine Flame Alliance. However, they also worried that the Formation Sect could become too powerful and potentially harbor the intention to annex the other Sects.

In the fierce battle, the Green-Haired Giant Elephant puppet was ultimately destroyed, and it was the strongest puppet Lin Chen currently had.

In addition, more than fifty human-shaped puppets on his body had lost almost thirty, which pained Lin Chen deeply.

But with the cover of the Green-Haired Giant Elephant and the remaining puppets, Lin Chen and Wu Chao successfully escaped and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Shortly after, they found a hidden room to take refuge in.

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, are you hurt?"

Wu Chao asked, his heart equally struck with shock. The combined attack of Mao Yucheng and others was hard for even him to withstand, yet not only did Lin Chen endure the attack, but he also quickly recovered from superficial injuries, although his breath was still unstable, clearly suffering from internal injuries.

"It’s nothing serious anymore. I owe you thanks for your help this time, Brother Wu Chao."

Lin Chen once again expressed his gratitude to Wu Chao. He had only met Wu Chao twice, but Wu Chao was willing to give up the Exotic Treasure to help him, a gesture that made him worthy of a deeper connection.

"We’re brothers, why the formality," Wu Chao replied.

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, did you see any other brothers on your way here?"

As Wu Chao inquired, concern showed on his face. Lin Chen nodded; he had not only encountered his fellow brothers but also arrived at this place with them.

"How many of our Sect brothers who entered the ruins are still alive?" Wu Chao asked his most concerning question.

On hearing this, Lin Chen understood Wu Chao’s anxiety.

"Roughly a hundred or so."

He answered truthfully, causing Wu Chao to sigh. This meant that possibly only two-tenths of the five hundred brothers who entered the ruins had survived, those who had reached this place had undergone numerous trials.

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, what are your plans now? Will you join me in searching for other brothers?"

"We’ve explored almost all the opportunities in the ruins, and now the most important thing is to ensure our survival," Wu Chao stated calmly, looking at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen nodded in response.

"Brother Wu Chao is right, but I plan to heal first, and make further plans after my injuries have healed. With these puppets for protection, I have the power to protect myself, so Brother Wu Chao need not worry about me."

"Since Brother is set on looking for the others, I have a word of advice. Once you find our brothers, it’s best to leave this place as soon as possible. I have a premonition that there will be a big upheaval in the ruins soon."

Lin Chen thought of the Dragon Fang Dagger and Master Qingxu’s words, his tone growing very serious.

Wu Chao was taken aback and furrowed his brows upon hearing this. He understood the implication in Lin Chen’s words.

"Are you referring to those sinister and eerie beings from the Alien Races, the Evil Demons?" Wu Chao asked with a frown. He had joined forces with other warriors before and had killed a tribesperson from the Dark Demon Race, fully aware of their fearsomeness.

"Exactly, Brother has also experienced their terror. If there were only a few scattered ones, we might be able to join forces to fight against them, but what if they invade this place in large numbers?" Lin Chen shared his thoughts, with no need to hide them from Wu Chao.

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, Wu Chao’s eyes widened in shock, his face filled with astonishment, and the impact in his heart was beyond words. If what Lin Chen said was true, the consequences for everyone here—whether Human Warriors or various factions from the Demon Race—would be unimaginable, and they might all struggle to survive.

"Brother, won’t you come with us?" Wu Chao was worried about the other brothers, and having already obtained abundant opportunities in the ruins, he now only wanted to lead the brothers away from this place.

"Brother go ahead, I’m confident I can leave on my own," Lin Chen replied calmly. Currently injured, Lin Chen wasn’t in a position to move, but he also couldn’t keep Wu Chao waiting for no reason. This could possibly delay Wu Chao’s rendezvous with the other brothers—a burden Lin Chen did not want to become for the Formation Sect.

"Alright then, take care, Junior Brother Lin Chen," Wu Chao said, glancing at Lin Chen’s human-shaped puppets before turning to leave.

The extent of Lin Chen’s trump cards surpassed his expectations. Lin Chen was not a rash person and would not do something without being sure of it, so Wu Chao wasn’t worried about him.

As soon as Wu Chao left, Lin Chen immediately set up a defensive formation to conceal his aura around the area. Although this place was already very hidden, it was always good to be cautious.

Then, with the human-shaped puppets acting as protectors, Lin Chen began to heal. Lin Chen’s injuries were serious this time, and relying solely on the Healing Pills and Cultivation Technique he had refined, he would probably need three to five days to recover.

Consequently, Lin Chen decided to no longer hesitate and directly took out a hundred-thousand-year-old fifth-grade spiritual medicine that he had snatched from the Medicine Garden. A hundred-thousand-year-old fifth-grade spiritual medicine, its medicinal effect strong enough to refine dozens of elixirs, was something ordinary martial artists dared not consume directly.

But Lin Chen, eager to heal his injuries as soon as possible and at any cost, had a premonition that the Dark Demon Race people might arrive at any moment, so it was essential for him to recover quickly.

As the hundred-thousand-year-old fifth-grade spiritual medicine entered his mouth, Lin Chen hurriedly circulated the Primordial Transformation Art. The potent medicinal effect immediately spread throughout his body, integrating into his blood and meridians.
