Chapter 108: A Drop of Kindness, A Spring of Gratitude

Tan Qingjiang and his group hadn't yet recovered from the shock.

There was no power fluctuation, yet a living person had been directly annihilated. They had never seen such eerie means.

"I understand, did you obtain the eighth Origin Ancient Artifact!" Tan Qingjiang was both shocked and happy, his eyes filled with greedy light.

This was the interior of the Gate of Apocalypse. Anything that could cause Student Zhuge Qianxing to fight so fiercely and even die must be a treasure not inferior to an Origin Ancient Artifact, even if it wasn't one.

If the other party possessed an Origin Ancient Artifact, then everything could be explained. Origin Ancient Artifacts were synonymous with terror to begin with.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lichuan and the others felt their breathing become heavy. That was an Origin Ancient Artifact; even the top job-changers would be moved by it.

But the people from the Job-Changer Guild didn't make a move, choosing instead to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

Ye Lin didn't explain anything, and with a wave of his hand, he cast a full-powered Fireball spell.

A red-gold sun appeared in the air and smashed toward Tan Qingjiang and the others.

Tan Qingjiang's expression changed, and he retreated rapidly. With a flip of his palm, a bow and arrow appeared in his hand.

The bow body was made of dark gold material, flowing with sharp luster, while the bowstring was woven from an unknown silver fiber, exuding a cold aura.

A cold glint flashed in Tan Qingjiang's eyes. He quickly pulled the bowstring tight, aiming at the incoming red-gold sun.

*Whoosh! *

A sharp sound of breaking air rang out. Tan Qingjiang released his fingers, and the bow and arrow in his hand transformed into a meteor, shooting straight at the center of the fireball.

The moment the arrow made contact with the fireball, it was like Hou Yi shooting the sun; the fireball was torn apart by the arrow's power, and the exploding flames were forcibly suppressed, turning into countless fire snakes that drifted away.

"Cover me!"

Tan Qingjiang issued orders to his subordinates, and immediately afterward, he pulled the bowstring tight again, aiming the arrow tip at Ye Lin.

He was a level 62 Holy Bow Hunter. At this distance, he was completely confident he would hit his mark!

*Whoosh! *

The sharp arrow transformed into a stream of light, attacking Ye Lin's glabella.

Before the arrow had even arrived, Ye Lin already felt a stinging pain in his glabella.

"Earth-Escaping Technique!"

Earth-Escaping Technique was sublimated into Space Leap. Ye Lin's figure shattered like a jigsaw puzzle, and that must-kill arrow also landed in empty space.

"Wood-type spell, fire-type spell, and now earth-type spell. What profession is this kid exactly?" Tan Qingjiang exclaimed, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

How could one person be proficient in three completely different types of spells at the same time? Could it be an Elemental Mage?

Just when he was surprised, Ye Lin's figure appeared again. He didn't choose to flee, but appeared behind a tall, thin man like a ghost.

Ye Lin didn't hold grudges; he generally took revenge on the spot. If his strength wasn't enough, he would wait until the next time they met to take revenge.

This tall, thin man had wanted to kill him in the Investigation Bureau prison before. A drop of kindness, Ye Lin naturally had to repay with a spring of gratitude.

"Water Curtain Tides!"

【Professional Talent 'Ultimate Sublimation' activated; Water Curtain Tides has been strengthened into Sea God's Wrath.】

【Forbidden Spell - Sea God's Wrath: The Forbidden Spell Master sacrifices their own two kidneys, condenses the surrounding water elements, and summons the phantom of the Sea God's Trident. When casting this forbidden spell in a place with abundant water sources, the power is amplified by 200%.】

The water elements in the surrounding air rippled violently, continuously converging together to form a golden trident phantom. A terrifying aura rose from the trident, and the surrounding space seemed to be locked by this power.

The tall, thin man felt a chill on his back, his hair standing on end. A strong sense of crisis made his soul fly away in terror. He wanted to run, but it was already too late!

The golden trident phantom stabbed down fiercely at the tall, thin man.

"No! My Lord, save me!"

The tall, thin man was shocked. He tried his best to escape, but the golden trident was like a maggot on a tarsal bone, locking onto him firmly and piercing directly from his back into his heart!

Blood gushed from the tall, thin man's mouth. He clearly felt that his life force was continuously flowing away.

When he locked eyes with Ye Lin's cold gaze, he subconsciously felt that the other party's eyes seemed somewhat familiar, only he couldn't remember. His consciousness slowly sank into darkness.

"Let's see how you run this time!"

Tan Qingjiang pulled the bow and nocked an arrow again. A sharp arrow shot toward Ye Lin's glabella.

He actually had the opportunity to save the tall, thin man just now, but he didn't, because the tall, thin man's life was insignificant compared to killing Ye Lin and obtaining the Origin Ancient Artifact.

It had to be said that the timing Tan Qingjiang chose was excellent, exactly when Ye Lin's old strength was exhausted and new strength hadn't yet arisen.

If an ordinary mage were here, having released four skills in succession, they would definitely have some consumption.

But unfortunately, the one he was facing was Ye Lin, this monster!

After the Eternal Balance was repaired by Student Zhuge Qianxing, Ye Lin's Undying Body became even more terrifying, even reaching the point of regeneration from a drop of blood.

The organs he had just sacrificed could even grow back in just a few breaths.

"Earth-Escaping Technique!"

Ye Lin's figure disappeared again. When he appeared again, it was another plain and ordinary skill, directly taking away the life of one of Tan Qingjiang's subordinates.

"What?!"

Tan Qingjiang was shocked and angry. He hadn't expected that Ye Lin could actually perform another teleportation in such a short time. Did this guy's skills have no consumption and no cooldown?

"Attack him for me!"

Tan Qingjiang was clearly a person who had experienced great storms and waves. He forced himself to calm down and then drew his bow and nocked an arrow again.

It was just that this time, he didn't make a move easily, but let his subordinates attack Ye Lin first.

Although skills like this that could teleport were powerful, when the other party cast them, as long as one paid close attention, one could capture the spatial fluctuations and predict the other party's landing point.

By then, the other party would be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!

Tan Qingjiang's subordinates attacked one after another. Fire, frost, lightning, gale, sword aura, blade aura—various skills smashed toward Ye Lin all at once, covering the sky and earth.

This time, Ye Lin didn't choose to dodge with Space Leap, but raised his hand directly.

Great Sumeru Ring, activated instantly!

Any attack from Tan Qingjiang's subordinates that was in energy form was swallowed directly by an invisible force the moment it touched Ye Lin's body, all pouring into that ancient ring on Ye Lin's hand.

The Great Sumeru Ring, runes flowing, luster flickering, as if a universe shrunken countless times was rotating within it.

【Sumeru Hides the Mustard Seed: The wearer can absorb energy-form attacks into the Great Sumeru Ring and convert the energy into a temporary mental power bonus.】

In an instant, the mental power bonus of the three-star refined Great Sumeru Ring increased from 160% to 220%!

As for physical attacks, Ye Lin dodged if he could, and if he couldn't, he just took them head-on.

After his mental power was boosted, Ye Lin raised his hand and cast a fire-type area-of-effect skill.

"Fire Rain Descent!"

Under Ultimate Sublimation, Fire Rain Descent became a forbidden spell: Heavenly Fire Extinction.

Only to see dark, ink-like clouds gathering above the sky, as if the end of the world had descended.

Countless red-gold high-temperature flames condensed from the dark clouds, and then, with the might of destroying the world, poured down toward Tan Qingjiang and the others!

"Not good, hurry and dodge!"

Tan Qingjiang's expression changed drastically. He sensed the terror of this strike and hurriedly shouted a reminder.

However, the speed of the heavenly fire was too fast, and the range was too wide. Tan Qingjiang's subordinates had nowhere to hide and could only watch helplessly as the fire rain fell, submerging their bodies. They struggled in the flames, unable to break free, letting out shrill screams.

Tan Qingjiang's expression changed again and again. He truly couldn't understand why a single Fire Rain Descent could have such terrifying power!

Seeing Ye Lin standing there calmly, he gritted his teeth, sweat sliding down his cheeks. Even if he made a move again, he couldn't possibly hit the target. Since that was the case...

A fierce look flashed in Tan Qingjiang's eyes, and then he turned and shot an arrow at Student Zhuge Qianxing's corpse!

He had already seen that Student Zhuge Qianxing seemed extremely important to the man before him. Rather than aiming at a target that could teleport, it was simpler to aim at a dead person.

He was gambling! Gambling that Ye Lin would block this arrow! As long as Ye Lin wanted to block this arrow, it would inevitably give him a chance for a one-hit kill!

Tan Qingjiang didn't hold back at all for this arrow, sweeping out with a violent aura. With his level as high as 62, this arrow was enough to leave Student Zhuge Qianxing without even bones remaining.

However, just at the moment the arrow was about to hit Student Zhuge Qianxing's corpse, a violent fluctuation came from the space in front, and Ye Lin's body teleported, appearing in front of Student Zhuge Qianxing.

*Pfft! *

Tan Qingjiang's arrow instantly pierced through Ye Lin's chest, and the violent power attached to the arrow exploded with a bang, blowing a blood hole the size of a human head in Ye Lin's chest!

Seeing this, Tan Qingjiang's eyes revealed a look of wild joy. He had won the gamble!

This kid was actually stupid enough to use his own body to block an arrow for a dead person! He was truly stupid beyond saving! ===== CHAPTER 109 =====
