The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2422 Quasi-Saint
Lin Chen headed north.

Although the chances of re-entering the safe zone are slim, we should still go and take a look.

There are definitely quite a few adventurers trapped in this area, and they will surely instinctively move towards the safe zone.

Perhaps something will happen?
Inside the exquisite tower.

Lin Chen voiced his doubts: "A powerful being who has mastered spatial abilities must be a Great Luo Immortal, not a Saint. To be able to fold space like this and manipulate landmasses in the palm of one's hand, this skill is truly extraordinary. Are there really such big differences between Great Luo Immortals?"

Liu Yun is a Great Luo Immortal, Fu Yunzi is a Great Luo Immortal, Gui Zhenren is also a Great Luo Immortal, Mu Tianjun is a Great Luo Immortal, Tai Xu Zhenren is also a Great Luo Immortal, and the one who set up this secret realm must also be a Great Luo Immortal. The difference between them is not small.

Fu Yunzi replied, "You must know that the Great Luo Immortals are divided into lower, middle, and upper grades, right?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I know."

Fu Yunzi explained, “The higher the immortal realm, the greater the gap between each realm, and the greater the difference in strength between immortals within the same realm. Liu Yun, myself, Gui Zhenren, and Chen Guang, Xuan Neng, and even Kurong, whom you met before, are all top-grade Daluo Shixian, but as you have seen, there is a gap in strength between us.”

"Actually, above the Upper-Grade Grand Luo Immortal and below the Saint, there is another realm. Strictly speaking, this realm still belongs to the Upper-Grade Grand Luo Immortal, but it has also reached the threshold of the Saint realm, and even has one foot in it..."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "A half-step saint?"

Fu Yunzi nodded: "Yes, that's the idea. However, we are called Quasi-Saints, and their supernatural powers are definitely beyond our reach. If this Sacred Spring Secret Realm is man-made, then the other party is probably a Quasi-Saint."

Quasi-saint?

Lin Chen was completely numb.

If this secret realm is indeed the work of a Quasi-Saint, then what is that Quasi-Saint's purpose?
Lin Chen held back his question and asked, "Master, if you were to fight against a Quasi-Saint, what would your chances of winning be?"

Fu Yunzi curled his lips: "Talking about the odds of winning with a Quasi-Saint? Isn't that a joke? If a High-Grade Grand Luo Immortal has a chance of defeating a Quasi-Saint, then he is disgracing the word 'Saint'."

Okay, I understand.

A top-grade Grand Luo Immortal has a 0% chance of winning against a Saint!

Lin Chen thought for a moment and then asked, "If, and I mean if, the one who set up the Sacred Spring Secret Realm was a Quasi-Saint, and he had ulterior motives, causing the deaths of wave after wave of adventurers, wouldn't the Immortal Emperor do nothing about it?"

"Why should we care?" Fu Yunzi asked curiously. "In the eyes of a sage, even the Great Luo is not worth mentioning, and those below the Great Luo are like ants. Someone has trampled one batch of ants after another. Would a sage kill that person because of these ants?"

Lin Chen was speechless.

The path of immortality is indeed one of survival of the fittest.

Fu Yunzi sighed and said, "If this Quasi-Saint goes on a rampage, killing his way through one Immortal Realm after another, he will inevitably infringe upon the interests of the Immortal Emperor's lineage. For example, in the Myriad Gods Immortal Realm, if a Quasi-Saint indiscriminately slaughters people, it will certainly affect the interests of the Myriad Immortals Palace. The Myriad Immortals Palace will naturally intervene. Even if the Palace Master of the Myriad Immortals Palace cannot defeat him, he will report to the Immortal Emperor and ask the Immortal Emperor to make a decision for him."

"Now that this quasi-saint has set up such a secret realm, even if he kills all the adventurers who disappeared because of the secret realm's refresh, no one will blame him. After all, everyone knows that the secret realm refreshes. If you risk entering, then you can only blame yourself if you suffer a disaster. Who else can you blame?"

After a pause, Fu Yunzi smiled wryly and said, "Strictly speaking, we also came here because of the healing place. In fact, we were taking risks for something. Now it's just that the risks have turned into reality."

Lin Chen thought about it and realized that it made sense.

This secret place is like a bamboo cage for birds, with rice scattered under the cage. The birds outside are lured by the food and risk flying in to eat the rice under the cage. Some birds are lucky and fly away after eating the rice, while others are unlucky and the cage collapses, trapping them inside.

The unfortunate bird is already in a cage. Whether it is braised, stewed, or released is entirely up to the person who holds up the bamboo cage.

Lin Chen and the others were like birds caught in a trap.

Lin Chen asked unwillingly, "Master Kurong seems to be much more powerful than you. Is he a quasi-saint?"

Lin Chen has a token given to him by Ku Rong, which can summon his true form to descend once.

Fu Yunzi shook his head: "He is not a Quasi-Saint, he is just a very powerful High-Grade Grand Luo Immortal."

Lin Chen was immediately discouraged; it seemed his hope of seeking help from Master Kurong had been dashed.

A top-grade Grand Luo Immortal has a 0% chance of winning against a Saint.

Just as Lin Chen was feeling dejected, another person suddenly flashed through his mind, and he asked, "Master, do you know Master Taixu? Is he powerful?"
