The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1139 Don't be afraid, I will take action.
"See? I wasn't wrong. Look, we've run into each other."

The voice of Fairy Xuanji rang out from the side, tinged with amusement.

Lin Chen smiled wryly: "It seems I'm really lucky."

Fairy Xuanji chuckled: "Although the immortal path emphasizes wealth, companions, methods, and land, the lives of those with true great fortune never follow the conventional path. You came from the mortal realm, and in just a few years, how many fortuitous encounters have you had? Not to mention anything else, you've already traversed three forbidden zones. If you include here, that makes four..."

Lin Chen blinked: "Didn't you help with the Eternal Graveyard and this place?"

Fairy Xuanji smiled and said, "Is it possible that my appearance is also a manifestation of your destiny?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "That seems to make sense, but now that you mention it, I'm really afraid that one day my luck will suddenly run out and then I'll have all sorts of bad luck. Right now it's like I've overdrawn my luck..."

Fairy Xuanji shook her head: "You won't, don't worry."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "You could tell? When we first met, you said I had great luck..."

Fairy Xuanji nodded: "I have studied divination, but I am not very good at it. I cannot see the exact future, but divination based on facial features is basically correct."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Immortal Calculation, does that mean fortune telling?"

"Correct."

Fairy Xuanji replied, "The concept of fate is mysterious and profound, like looking at flowers through the fog, yet it truly exists."

Lin Chen gave a thumbs up: "Fairy, you're really amazing. Can you tell how well I'll do in the future?"

Fairy Xuanji smiled slightly, her eyes revealing a subtle hint: "Through twists and turns, yet without real danger; the road is bumpy, but the future is limitless."

Lin Chen chuckled: "That's good, that's good... Fairy, shall we sneak over now?"

Fairy Xuanji nodded: "I'll say it again, it's your decision. Don't be afraid, I'll help if you encounter any danger."

Lin Chen was immediately relieved.

Lin Chen left the stone cave and headed towards the place where the rosy light was emanating, but before he had gone far, a huge commotion suddenly came from behind him.

"Boom boom boom!"

Lin Chen dodged and hid behind a large tree. Just as he finished hiding, he saw the giant white ape he had seen before rush out of the gray mist and head towards the rosy light.

The appearance of the white ape was just the beginning. Immediately following, the enormous Moses crocodile swung its tail and charged out rapidly. From another direction, the Golden-Crowned Titan Python, with its golden crest on its head, emerged like a bulldozer, crushing countless trees and exuding a ferocious aura. In the sky, the Terror Bird spread its wings and flew across the sky, blotting out the sun, before catching up and heading towards the direction of the rosy dawn.

Lin Chen was deeply shocked.

What treasure is emitting this seven-colored glow that can attract so many ancient beasts?

All the giant beasts rushed into the low-lying area where the rosy light was, and then there was no more movement.

Lin Chen wondered to himself, what was going on?
If they want to fight over the treasure, shouldn't they be fighting?

Lin Chen moved forward again, and soon he reached the edge of the hill.

Upon seeing it, Lin Chen's eyes widened suddenly.

Below the hill lies a deep valley, and at the bottom of the valley is a pool of water. The glow of the sunset shines from the center of the pool, whose water is so dark that one cannot see what lies below.

As the rosy light shone, countless white mists filled the pool, and the many giant beasts that had rushed over earlier all gathered around the pool, stretching their necks and desperately absorbing the white mist swirling on the water's surface.

"Immortal spiritual energy?"

The surprised voice of Fairy Xuanji rang in Lin Chen's ears: "It seems that the treasure beneath the pool must have originated from the Immortal Realm, possessing the ability to absorb the spiritual energy here and transform it into immortal spiritual energy. These giant beasts have been absorbing immortal spiritual energy all along, no wonder they are so powerful..."

Lin Chen lay on the hilltop, looking at the terrifying beasts, and asked in a low voice, "Why do these beasts only absorb the immortal energy on the shore, and not one of them goes into the water to search for or devour that treasure?"

Fairy Xuanji explained, "Perhaps the treasure is only useful here. Once it is taken away or devoured, it will no longer be able to generate immortal energy. Moreover, these giant beasts are very intelligent. If anyone touches this treasure and prevents other giant beasts from absorbing immortal energy, they will probably be torn to pieces by the other giant beasts in no time."

Lin Chen replied, "Let's take a look first."

Lin Chen dared not rush out at this moment. Judging from the situation, anyone who dared to take the treasure in the pool would definitely be besieged by all the giant beasts.

Let’s talk about it later.

The pool continuously emitted celestial energy, and the surrounding giant beasts scrambled to absorb it all.

As time passed, the celestial energy emanating from the pool began to thin, the seven-colored glow began to dim, and the area illuminated by the glow gradually shrank. The gray fog once again swept in, enveloping the earth and plunging the world into darkness.

Lin Chen lay there peacefully, waiting quietly.
