Chapter 903

~8 min read 1,403 words

100 meters underground.

Chen Yangting listened in shock to the grim voice transmission from afar, his face showing a stunned expression.

Just one second ago, he was overjoyed, even somewhat jealous, sensing that Number Four had already collided with Lin An.

He had thought the opponent could easily take down Lin An, but he never expected the situation to develop completely beyond his imagination.

Facing a Spirit Energy-depleted Lin An, as a Third Rank intermediate, Number Four somehow looked like he was about to die.

As the weakest in the team, he could barely sense that far away, the two were erupting in violent Spirit Energy collisions.

He was completely unaware of the situation on the scene.

Curse Quietly a piece of trash, he also had no time to think further, only able to grit his teeth and fly urgently.

For some reason, an absurd feeling welled up in his heart.

But we need to keep meaning. Maybe we can phrase: "After a Curse Quietly of 'trash,' he also had no time to think further, only able to grit his teeth and fly urgently." That still uses the term as a noun. Might be acceptable.

Logically, upon reaching Third Rank, battles between equals are hard to decide in a short time.

Before the Spirit Energy points are exhausted, any attack will be neutralized.

Just like a built-in shield, battles between Third Rank often involve prolonged attrition, then waiting for an opportunity to kill.

But now it seems...

Number Four, he won't really die, will he?

In midair, the silver-haired man who only made long-range attacks while continuously flying flashed a hint of strangeness in his eyes, his face sinking.

Unlike the two who could not understand the current scene, he instead let out a relieved sigh.

Thinking of how Chen Yangting and the others had previously not cared much that Lin An was a Perfect Being, he couldn't help but sneer.

As one of higher rank in the sect, he possessed more information.

Lin An's current performance did not exceed his expectations.

Third Rank intermediate, possessing a brief 'invincible' time?

Spirit control ability, combined with the Blink skill, and a series of form transformations.

Constantly piecing together Lin An's true combat power.

Unlike Chen Yangting and the others' guess that he was too lazy to go underground, he actually remained vigilant against Lin An at all times.

Even if his strength overwhelmed theirs, no matter how they thought, their side could easily kill Lin An.

But he actually had always regarded Chen Yangting and the others as tools for scouting the path.

Perfect Beings, none are easy to kill..

Therefore, after Lin An suddenly erupted and killed someone, he instead breathed a sigh of relief.

Stronger than intermediate, with all trump cards revealed, able to ambush and force Number Four to the brink of death.

It must be said, Perfect Beings are indeed Perfect Beings, but only to that extent.

Only unknown means are worth his vigilance.

If Lin An could only perform like this, the danger to him would already be infinitesimally close to zero.

As for the deaths of his subordinates, to him they were utterly unimportant.

As soon as the thought arose, he simply accelerated again, heading straight to the battlefield.

Spirit Energy surged; feeling the rapidly approaching presence behind him, Lin An's expression hardened, and he simply converted a bit of his physique into Spirit Energy once more.

The sword tip pressed down; this final addition of Spirit Energy was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The stalemate ended.

No!!!

With a roar of unwillingness, an strike containing all his Spirit Energy directly broke through the giant axe man's desperately resisting Spirit Energy defense.

Bang!!

The sword blade sliced into the brain, the rampant sword energy instantly shredding the most fragile brain tissue.

The Arcane Torrent that had been lying in wait also shot out instantly, exploding violently upon the man's body.

His body shattered, his brain turned to mush.

Within two seconds, this Third Rank intermediate Awakened One was dead beyond death.

Before death, the giant axe man's eyes were full of unwillingness.

He hated himself for being too careless.

If it weren't for Lin An instantly controlling him, that sword would not have directly broken through his bodily defense.

In a war of attrition, even if he couldn't kill Lin An, holding out until the silver-haired man arrived would be no problem.

He hated himself for not transforming his form immediately; that Arcane Torrent lying in wait seemed to have been timed precisely for him.

As long as he dared to slightly delay his Spirit Energy resistance, his flesh would be blown to pieces.

Hum

The sword blade trembled, shaking apart the red-and-white brain matter, and Lin An's face turned somewhat pale.

Ignoring the giant axe man's resentful gaze before death, he only felt his head swim, his memory seeming to constantly disintegrate.

That was the price, according to the Second Will, of repeatedly using the Causal Sequence.

His heart sank, and he gave a wry smile.

Lin An knew that if he used it a few more times, he'd probably be able to play mahjong in his brain.

("Try to use it as little as possible…")

Within the Thought Space, the Second Will's expression also looked somewhat grim as it gazed at a large amount of past memory fragments, constantly coalescing together, as if trying to piece together a completely new personality.

There was no way; in Lin An's true strength, the peak-state power was just those few moments.

With repeated use, past memories and strength were synchronously projected onto the present, so that, like junk files in a hard drive, they gradually appeared within the Thought Space.

There's no way around it; the peak-state power within Lin An's true strength is just those few moments.

With repeated use, past memories and strength are synchronously projected onto the present, appearing in the thought space like junk files on a hard drive.

"I know."

Not having time to glance at the pile of flesh on the ground, a hint of doubt flashed in Lin An's eyes.

The opponent..

Who exactly is it.

If he didn't have the Death-facing skill control and the Star Caller's set, he would have wanted to kill the opponent, but it wouldn't be that simple.

The opponent's strength is clearly greater than that of an ordinary Third Rank.

Moreover, the opponent hardly has any equipment worth mentioning; his whole outfit looks like nothing more than the common blue and white.

No time to think further.

As Lin An sighed, he quickly took out the Death Seed, trying to absorb a portion of the departed spiritual energy, when a system prompt suddenly sounded.

"Ding, killed YiKongjian mutant, gained 3 points of spiritual energy reward, gained 9 points of human honor."

"Ding, obtained Space-locking crystal *1"

"Ding, obtained YiKongjian materials *2"

"Obtained White Equipment, Resolute Armor, obtained Blue Equipment, Fist of Mighty Strength, obtained White Equipment, Armed Feet, obtained..."

Hmm!?

Just as he was about to rush out of the ground with full force, activating Blink to flee, Lin An stared in astonishment at the screen-filling system rewards.

He could understand the equipment reward, after all, killing an Awakened One could drop the opponent's equipment.

He had always looked down on the equipment he obtained before, so he simply threw it all back to Long An.

But...

Why do I get an "experience" reward for killing an Awakened One!?

Looking at the system rewards, it was obvious that only killing a Third Rank Mutant could yield spiritual energy reward, and Lin An's heart surged with shock.

The opponent, not human!?

What is a YiKongjian mutant!?

Within the Thought Space, the Second Will also obviously froze for a moment.

Merely sensing the breath constantly approaching from behind, he had no choice but to first urge Lin An:

("Let's go first, talk later!")

("We'll look again on the way!")

Sharing the same thought, Lin An desperately suppressed the doubt in his heart and hurriedly flew toward the ground.

"You help me control my body!"

Hand over control, and use two minds as one.

Lin An stared fixedly at the so-called YiKongjian materials, suddenly recalling the bodily structure he had obtained from previously killing mutants.

These people hunting him down are nothing but monsters!

Opening the system explanation, unprecedented information suddenly appeared before his eyes.
