Chapter 1297 - An Lin on Standby Mode
Chapter 1297: An Lin on Standby Mode
Xu Xiaolan, Xuanyuan Cheng, and the others also joined in on the fun.
Liu Mingxuan was quite powerful after all. He unleashed a few extremely terrifying sword projections, which injured Kui and Zhu Xuze and also managed to eliminate ten powerful beings.
However, he was then swamped by countless terrifying spell techniques.
A golden protective light appeared around his body.
No one even knew who had landed the killing blow. They were all perpetrators anyway…
“No… Save me, Mingxuan… Ah…!”
An agonized scream erupted.
Zhu Shan was bashed to the ground. Her hair looked like a bird’s nest, and there was blood trickling down the corners of her lips.
A golden protective light appeared around her body. If it weren’t for that, she would probably be dead in less than a second.
“Look at the pitiful wretch, wasn’t she all arrogant and cocky not too long ago?”
“She thinks she’s bad*ss just because she’s got a powerful backer!”
“What an anti-climax! This b*tch is way too weak even as a punching bag!”
All of the mighty figures harrumphed coldly with disdainful expressions.
Zhu Shan’s wounded body trembled as she stared at the mighty figures before her with pain and horror.
She really was scared. She didn’t think that these living beings would be so resentful toward her and so merciless in their attacks.
Sometimes, the person who ran their mouths evoked more hatred than the one who was actually doing the fighting.
“Bye-bye, Liu Mingxuan, Zhu Shan, I’ll be sure to work thrice as hard in order to make up for your absences!” An Lin waved his hand from within the coffin.
Zhu Shan threw up another mouthful of blood from rage.
She hated An Lin so much that she wanted to rip him to shreds, and she was enraged to the verge of tears. Come to think of it, she had never come out on top in altercations with An Lin, and she had always left in an extremely sorry state.
This time, An Lin didn’t even do anything aside from instigating everything from within his coffin, yet Liu Mingxuan and herself were both pummeled into elimination…
“An Lin, you better…”
Zhu Shan pointed at An Lin and was just about to deliver a threat when an extremely potent spatial power enshrouded her body, upon which she instantly disappeared from the spot.
In the next instant, she appeared within the Heavenly Palace healing formation.
“… Remember this!”
Zhu Shan’s finger was still pointing up ahead when she reappeared, and she was greeted by the sight of a pig monster looking at her expressionlessly.
A sly smile appeared on the pig monster’s face. “Remember what? Did something happen between us? Hehehe…”
Zhu Shan finally burst into tears. “Waah!”
She didn’t even get a chance to finish her threat, how infuriating!
Within the Dao Observation Space.
Everyone was very satisfied with the outcome of that altercation, and all of them rushed into the cherry blossom forest.
As everyone had played a part in bashing Liu Mingxuan, they had become comrades in a way, and none of them wanted to eliminate anyone else before entering the cherry blossom forest.
Thus, everyone made their way into the cherry blossom forest in a peaceful and orderly fashion.
“An Lin, we’ll be enemies once we are in there. You better be on your guard! Hahaha…” Kui laughed heartily with an eager expression on his face.
An Lin’s expression darkened. “Senior Kui, I’m a disabled man trapped in a coffin. Wouldn’t you be embarrassed to push me around in my current condition?”
“Of course not! If I don’t take the chance to push you around now, it’s going to be quite difficult for me to do so in the future.” Kui chuckled as he put on a menacing display of crackling lightning before skipping into the entrance with his lone leg.
“Don’t worry, Big Boss An Lin, I’ll protect you!” Lan Xiaoni transmitted her voice as she aimed a surreptitious wink toward him.
An Lin was elated.
He had both his dao partner and his underling to protect him. Life was good.
Even though he was as feeble as a mortal and lying in a coffin, he was very happy.
“Don’t worry, Mr. An Lin, I’ll protect you.” Hong Dou patted the coffin with his large hand, and he turned around to reveal what he thought to be a very reliable smile.
“Thank you, Mr. Hong Dou.” Even though An Lin wasn’t very convinced, he still offered some obligatory words of gratitude.
“Follow me. There’s something not quite right about this cherry blossom forest. We can clearly see people in there from the outside, but all of the people inside seem to be wandering around with no sense of direction.” Xu Xiaolan led from the front, and she drew her Dragon Sparrow Sword as she instructed Hong Dou.
Hong Dou nodded before entering the cherry blossom forest with An Lin on his back.
The space around them transformed drastically upon entering the cherry blossom forest, and all of them were struck by a rush of dizziness.
“Not only are there illusionary and slaughter formations, but there is also a spatial formation!” Hong Dou’s expression shifted drastically, and he let loose a cry of surprise.
After the space settled around him, he discovered that he had lost sight of Xu Xiaolan.
“Crap, the interior of this cherry blossom forest is completely different from what it looks like on the outside…” Hong Dou was struck by a sense of foreboding. This was an extremely high-level spell formation, at least Dao Integration Stage that was for sure.
They were using a Dao Integration Stage spatial formation to deal with tenth-stage Dao Body cultivators like them…
So much overkill!
“Don’t worry, An Lin, I… I’ll protect you!” Hong Dou tried to reassure An Lin, but it was more like he was reassuring himself.
He patted the coffin that was strapped to his back as a comforting gesture.
However, his hand met his own backside instead.
Hong Dou: “???”
Boom!
Hong Dou yelled as if he had been struck by lightning, “Ah… An Lin! Where are you? Oh my God… I’ve lost him!”
Meanwhile, An Lin was having a mental breakdown.
There was a coffin constructed from blood jade sitting silently on a path paved with flower petals.
An Lin lay within the coffin with a suicidal expression on his face.
“Let me out… Somebody help me!”
An Lin was in complete despair. He had not recovered much of his strength, so he was unable to push open the lid on this immortal tool coffin. In other words, he was trapped in this bloody thing!
This was an environment fraught with peril, but he could only lie in this coffin like a sitting duck.
What a hopeless situation.
“Why does this cherry blossom forest feel like an alternate world? Everyone had been split up as well. How troublesome,” An Lin grumbled.
Hong Dou was still carrying him on his back one second ago, and in the next second, Hong Dou had disappeared.
An Lin naturally fell to the ground along with the coffin.
“Sigh, it looks like I’m destined to be a spectator during this battle for the heavenly peaches.”
He heaved a forlorn sight. Actually, even spectators could travel around and choose what they wanted to see. He didn’t even have that choice open to him. He was in complete standby mode.
About ten minutes later.
“Master, Master! Look over there, there’s a crimson coffin!” a crisp, yet excited voice sounded.
“Be careful, my disciple, that must be a demonic creature sealed within this formation! It’s an extremely dangerous trap, and we should just leave it alone!” an elderly voice analyzed.
An Lin was enraged to hear this. You’re a demonic creature! Your whole family consists of demonic creatures!
He was clearly a peerlessly handsome young man who had been sealed in this coffin!
