The five warriors guarding the pavilion surrounded Lin Chen with their swords drawn and murderous intent in their eyes.
"What? Is this how your Changchun Pavilion treats guests?" Lin Chen sneered disdainfully.
"Stop talking nonsense! Get it for me!" the shopkeeper scolded.
Kill! Kill!~
Five pavilion-protecting warriors, armed with sharp weapons, attacked Lin Chen.
"I'll put you to the test!" Lin Chen had a golden needle in his finger. He was just learning formations to fight against enemies, and what he lacked the most was actual combat training.
Phew!~
With a ray of sword light, a warrior protecting the pavilion struck from the front.
Flying needle!
Lin Chen's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick, and a tiny trace of light was as fast as an instant. It was silent, shadowless and invisible, and it was difficult to catch it with the naked eye. It was precise and neat. The oncoming Pavilion Warrior felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.
To be on guard, a golden needle that was so tiny that it could not be distinguished was pierced directly through his vital point.
In an instant!
The Pavilion Warrior was suddenly paralyzed, his whole body was stiff and motionless, his attack was frozen, his expression was horrified, and his eyes were filled with fear. Even now, he still doesn't know how Lin Chen took action? How did he get attacked?
Thunder flash!
Lin Chen flashed like lightning, his figure was ghostly, and he moved around strangely like a ghost. Between his hands, cold golden needles shot out quickly, and the cold light flashed as fast as invisible.
Phew! Phew!~
One by one, the golden needles pierced the key points of the other four Pavilion Protector warriors, sealing the Qi and locking the pulses, paralyzing the nerves. The five living masters of the True Martial Realm were inexplicably frozen in the blink of an eye, with expressions on their faces.
Full of fear.
In a flash, Lin Chen appeared gracefully, his eyes were cold and stern, and he smiled secretly: "Wonderful! The flying needle technique can defeat the enemy invisible. It is indeed a murderous weapon, much easier to use than my sword!"
"This!?" The shopkeeper looked at the scene in front of him, trembling, and completely stunned. Lin Chen was able to calmly control the five pavilion guards in a moment.
"Haha, it seems that you, the masters of protecting the pavilion, are not very good at it." Lin Chen smiled faintly, and there were traces of smile lines under his bamboo hat, giving people an unruly and intimidating look that people could not fathom.
The shopkeeper woke up, activated his true energy, and struck with an angry palm: "We in Changchun Pavilion must not be so arrogant and wanton!"
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper was actually a martial arts expert, and the power of this palm was enough to reach the fifth level of true martial arts. But this kind of cultivation was really insignificant in Lin Chen's eyes.
Suddenly!
Lin Chen instantly struck out with a palm, moving in a straight line and hitting it head-on.
The shopkeeper looked horrified. He clearly felt the force of Lin Chen's palm, and realized that his provocation was completely ignorant.
Bang!~
Both palms collided, and the shopkeeper was obviously outmatched. His energy and blood were boiling, and he couldn't suppress it. Blood came out of his mouth. He was knocked upside down and slammed into the counter. Wood chips flew everywhere, leaving a mess.
"I don't have that much time to waste time with you ants. If your pavilion master doesn't come out, then I will demolish your Changchun Pavilion!" Lin Chen stood proudly with his hands behind his hands and his tone was cold.
"This is Tianbao City, and it is under its jurisdiction. If you are so lawless, aren't you afraid of being punished?" the shopkeeper said angrily.
Just finished!
Deep in the Changchun Pavilion, a majestic voice came out coldly: "Don't neglect your distinguished guest, please invite him in!"
"Uh?" The shopkeeper was stunned, stood up in a panic, and saluted in the dark: "Yes, Lord Pavilion Master!"
The ceremony is over!
The shopkeeper glanced at Lin Chen coldly and with anger on his face, full of hatred. He suppressed his resentment and bowed tightly, saying: "I have offended you so much. Your Excellency, please come this way!"
"Recognize it earlier, why suffer in vain?" Lin Chen snorted softly.
"Please!~"
The shopkeeper almost gritted his teeth, with a face full of hatred, and walked in to welcome Lin Chen in an honest and polite manner.
Lin Chen looked alert and cautious, after all, this Changchun Pavilion was very suspicious, and it was very likely to be a secret place where the demon thieves were hiding. Thinking that he was about to face a powerful demon sect, the Dragon Soul Ring had secretly gathered strength, and the sky
Corpses lurk quietly.
This Changchun Pavilion has a large and extremely complex cabinet structure. The entire layout is like a maze. The shopkeeper faced Lin Chen and turned left and right along the gloomy corridors.
Other righteous monks might not be able to feel it, but Lin Chen can be regarded as a dual cultivator of good and evil. He secretly moved the earth's yin veins, and found that as he went deeper into the corridor, the earth's yin aura filling the air gradually became richer.
"Sure enough, there is something fishy!" Lin Chen secretly thought, increasing his vigilance.
finally!
When we got to the end of the corridor, the shopkeeper seemed to have manipulated a strange mechanism on the stone door, and the stone door opened slowly. There was a long dark stone staircase, and a few ghost lamps hung on the stone wall, flickering on and off, shaking and looking cold.
Xi, leading to the unknown.
"The master of the pavilion is meditating in the basement, and this basement contains the treasures and rare objects of our pavilion. It is an important part of our pavilion. In order to prevent outsiders from sneaking in, there are many mechanisms arranged by the master of the pavilion himself. You must be sure to
See you?" The shopkeeper sneered with a bit of contempt.
"So much nonsense!" Lin Chen glanced coldly, secretly alert, and stepped onto the ground floor.
"I wish you good luck!" The shopkeeper smiled sinisterly, fiddled with the mechanism, and closed the stone door tightly.
Bang!~
The moment the stone door was closed, the dark lights on the ground steps and walkways were extinguished one after another. Lin Chen frowned deeply and was in endless darkness, his vision blurred.
"Mysterious!" Lin Chen secretly thought, because he has a strong sense of perception, sees darkness as light, and is wary of all directions. His eyes flicker, and step by step, he follows the stone steps straight down to the dark basement.
Ten steps!
Twenty steps!
Thirty steps!
······
The stone steps seemed to be wandering along the edge in the dark, until fifty steps down, they were safe and sound. However, the danger alert brought by Lin Chen's instinctive perception became more and more intense.
Next step!
When Lin Chen landed on the ground, the stone steps suddenly fell into the air.
Lin Chen was secretly frightened, reacted very quickly, and shrank back. But as he shrank, the stone steps under his feet still fell into the air, so Lin Chen had to retreat in a hurry. But the stone steps collapsed, and there was no way to retreat.
Whoosh! Whoosh!~~
Streaming rocket arrows shot out from all directions in the darkness, accompanied by a roaring wind.
Phew!~
The sword came out, and the sword danced with sparks flying. Lin Chen hurriedly danced with the sword, cutting off the falling rockets. The stone steps under his feet were completely hollow, and Lin Chen had to use the last stone step to jump and escape.
The upper two stone walls.
Whoosh! Whoosh!~
Lin Chen's body was agile, flying over eaves and walls, scurrying around the stone walls on the left and right, and flashing downward along the underground secret passage. At the same time, he waved the red flame sword to cut off the incoming arrows.
Lin Chen's face was cold and stern, he moved swiftly, cut through thorns and obstacles, and continued to dodge downwards.
It seems, until the end.
suddenly!
Bang!~
A flying fire flying stone, filled with tyrannical momentum, shot forward.
Lin Chen was startled, his perception was sensitive, and his eyes were sharp.
Star marks!
The sword shoots out meteors, thunders rush forward, and the sword is straight and slashes forward.
Peng!~
The flowing fire and flying rocks were hard to resist, and split into two. Lin Chen dodged and skimmed, feeling that there was a flat ground under his feet. His body was stretched out, as light as a swallow, floating like a fallen leaf, and landed lightly on the ground.
Hoo ho!~
Waves of cold wind blew past, and ghostly lamps shone one after another from all directions, illuminating a spacious basement. A man in black clothes with a tight robe sat on a throne in front of him.
At first glance, the figure in front of him seemed a bit familiar, but his field of vision was not clear, and Lin Chen couldn't accurately judge it from a distance.
"Excellent skills, you are really a born killer!" A soft yet tough female voice came with a smile.
Lin Chen was shocked and surprised, and exclaimed: "It's you!?"
good!
The man in black in front of me is the spirit I just fought with yesterday.
"Haha, thanks to your mercy, I can meet you again." Ling smiled slightly and said: "I have heard about today's events. Do you want to find out the murderer behind the scenes? Then let me tell you two things.
, First of all, you are looking in the wrong place, and secondly, the murderer is not our Paradise League. Our Paradise League will never implicate irrelevant others when assassinating the target, let alone kill someone with a borrowed knife, which will insult the reputation of our Paradise League!"
"Okay, I made a mistake." Lin Chen had no choice but to use Gu Qi's guess and the unannounced visit with the help of Tianzhi. The Changchun Pavilion was indeed extremely suspicious. But he never expected that he would find the members of the Paradise League branch.
Hidden secretly.
"I know in my heart that you suspect that the murderer behind the scenes is a member of the Demon Cult. To you, the corpse is originally a property of the Demon Cult. I am not interested in how you control it." Ling's eyes were sharp and he said: "But if I am not mistaken,
, you found this place with the help of the Sky Corpse’s induction, right?”
"Yes!" Lin Chen nodded slightly.
"Your direction is correct, but our Paradise League secret land itself is not an upright place. The hidden secret land is always in darkness and has a heavy yin energy, so it is understandable that it will mislead you."
Spiritual way.
"It was indeed my mistake. I thought a little too simply." Lin Chen looked directly at Ling and said in a deep voice: "But now I am on the black list of your Paradise League. You failed to assassinate me yesterday. Now I
I unintentionally dug up your secrets, so are you planning to take my life now?"
"Yesterday you spared my life. I owe it to you. Although I am a killer, I don't want to owe you anything!" Ling said calmly: "It is rare to meet you again by such a coincidence. I can show you a clear path!"
"Is it possible that you want to help me find the murderer?" Lin Chen's eyes lit up.
"I don't want to owe you any debt. I will pay it back to you this time. I won't owe you anything in the future." Ling's tone was cold.
"No matter what, I let you live, but why are you so heartless?" Lin Chen joked. Ever since he learned about Ling's past, Lin Chen felt sympathy and pity for Ling Youde. Of course, only he understood in his heart.
"I don't want to waste my time with you." Ling said calmly: "You are going in the right direction, but you have been negligent. I suggest you go to Baicao Hall."
"I checked Baicaotang, and there is nothing unusual." Lin Chen replied.
"Haha, there are many powerful people in Tianbao City. If it is really Anza, a member of the Demon Cult, who is in Tianbao City's clutches, do you think you are exposed so easily?" Ling smiled faintly and said: "There are some things that cannot be seen through on the surface.
The people in the sect can actually hide in Tianbao City and have their own means to hide it. At least we, the Paradise Alliance, have been unable to penetrate Baicaotang! Of course, it is just my personal suspicion, and you must have your own thoughts in mind."
"Yes!" Lin Chen looked startled, and indeed his investigation was not detailed enough. He said gratefully: "Thank you then!"
"You don't have to thank me, I just don't want to owe you anything." Ling said coldly: "After all, I exposed your list. Although the assassination failed this time, I will never let it go. When we meet in the future, either you will die or I will.
, you don’t have to be merciful anymore! Of course, now that I have been completely exposed, with your ability, you can still kill me now!"
"I don't like killing women, especially women as beautiful as you. Farewell!" Lin Chen replied with a smile, turned around, and left gracefully.
"What an arrogant guy, I will never let you go!" Ling was so angry that he stamped his feet, but he could only let Lin Chen leave.
Outside the basement!
The shopkeeper waited quietly and said with a sinister smile: "At this time, that bastard deserves to die, right?"
Just finished!
The stone door suddenly opened, Lin Chen strolled out, glanced at the astonished shopkeeper coldly, and said disdainfully: "Grow your brains in the future, some people are not the ones you, a little person like you, should mess with!"
Say it!
Lin Chen walked away, leaving the shopkeeper alone with a dull look on his face.
