The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3423 Ambush
Battle Axe wanted to retreat, but the countless tree branches, like poisonous dragons, locked down all the space.

They grew wildly, entwining themselves around the battle axe. The demonic spirits on the battle axe struggled and roared frantically. Although they broke off many branches, more and more branches wrapped around them.

These branches tightly bound the battle axe, and those branches, sharper than blades, did not stop there, but instead pierced towards the demonic spirit.

The spirit of a demon beast is created by fusing the primordial spirit of a demon beast with a magical artifact using a special refining method. Although the form of life has changed, the essence of its powerful energy remains the same.

Countless branches pierced into the phantom of the demonic beast spirit, sprouting countless red roots that frantically absorbed the spirit's spiritual power. Furthermore, numerous gaping maws searched for openings and charged at the phantom like starving ghosts, tearing at it with madness.

The phantom of the demonic beast was instantly torn to pieces, and its light quickly dimmed.

At the same time, countless branches and flower buds transformed into gaping maws flew towards the burly man.

The burly man stared at the scene before him, his eyes filled with terror.

His own magical artifact fell into the opponent's control in a single encounter, completely beyond his control. Not only that, the tree was also devouring the demonic spirit on the magical artifact!
That's brutal!
I am no match for the other party!

The burly man had long lost his previous courage and turned to run. However, just as he turned, he suddenly felt as if something invisible had struck his brain. His mind went blank, and the scene before him changed in an instant. Many terrifying monsters surrounded him, their eyes gleaming with greed, as if they were about to pounce on him and tear him to pieces at any moment.

This is?

Isn't this a scene I've experienced before?

I was in dire straits back then, almost dying, so how did I end up in this place again?

Why am I filled with such fear? Why is my body trembling uncontrollably?

Something is wrong!
This is not reality!
This is a fantasy!

Just as he realized he was in an illusion, all the terrifying monsters launched their attack, rushing towards him like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing him.

"what!"

The intense pain, coupled with his strong will, caused him to suddenly break free from the illusion and escape from the terrifying monsters that had pounced on him.

He gasped for breath, as if a drowning person had suddenly breathed in air.

However, the next second, he was horrified to discover that although he had escaped the illusion and was no longer surrounded by those terrifying monsters, his body was covered with sprawling branches, many of which had pierced into his body and were frantically sucking his life essence.

The people on the platform stared in horror at the burly man who was quickly entangled and disappeared among the countless roots, and they couldn't help but gasp.

They had a general idea of ​​that man's strength; even if he wasn't the most outstanding among them, he was definitely not the weakest.

With such strength, he couldn't even withstand a single round!
Not only did it lose, but it was also captured cleanly and efficiently, then completely drained and turned into nutrients for this big tree!
Soul fly away!

In the blink of an eye, the Gluttonous Divine Tree had drained the burly man dry, even consuming all the demonic spirit on the axe, causing it to collapse completely.

The branches that had been wrapped around him loosened, but the man in the middle had vanished without a trace, not even his bones or clothes remained, as if he had never existed.

A bright green branch, wrapped around the battle axe, was presented to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen reached out and grasped the battle axe, glanced at it casually, tossed it into his spatial ring, and then looked up again, his gaze falling on the people below.

"Is there anyone else who wants the Spirit of the Great Dao?"

The six or seven people all took a step back in unison, their faces filled with fear.

This is amazing!
We can't beat them!
Next!
Lin Chen sneered, "If you don't want it, then get lost!" The men's eyes were filled with anger, but none of them dared to stand up. They could only silently retreat, making way for the exit.

The Taotie Divine Tree in the air rapidly shrank and withered. In the blink of an eye, all the endless spiritual power returned to the seed and once again entered Lin Chen's brow.

Lin Chen strolled towards the exit, with Wu Heng and You Kun following behind him, their eyes filled with awe.

too strong!
With this level of strength, he probably has no rivals even among the Quasi-Saints.

These people all thought Lin Chen was a wood-elemental spiritual root trial participant, but they didn't know that Lin Chen had five elemental spiritual roots. This was only a demonstration of the power of wood-attribute divine abilities. If he added the other four elemental divine abilities, who could stop him?

Invincible below the level of a sage?

Probably.

No wonder his first reaction upon hearing that the spirit of the Great Dao could be stolen was to try and steal someone else's spirit of the Great Dao.

If I had that ability, I'd want to steal it too!
With no one stopping them, Lin Chen and his two companions easily crossed the plaza of the Completion Trial Path teleportation portal and arrived at the teleportation portal at the end.

Passing through this door, you can leave the trial grounds and return to the bronze hall outside.

Lin Chen stopped at the doorway, turned around and said, "You guys go first!"

Wu Heng and You Kun knew that Lin Chen was taking precautions, fearing that someone might have set up an ambush outside, since everyone had to leave from here.

The two had no choice but to fly up and simultaneously enter the teleportation portal.

After waiting for two seconds, Lin Chen stepped into the portal.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up; he was back in the familiar bronze hall.

The magical artifacts in front of Wu Heng and You Kun floated, and blood spilled from the corners of their mouths, clearly indicating that they had been attacked the moment they emerged.

Lin Chen's gaze swept over them, and his eyes immediately sharpened.

Ning Hesheng!
A black shadow floated on Ning Hesheng's chest, seemingly without substance, yet it gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.

Ning Hesheng's gaze fell on Lin Chen, and he laughed heartily, "We really are destined to meet again. It seems you have successfully absorbed the Wood Attribute Great Dao Spirit."

Lin Chen ignored Ning Hesheng and turned to look at Wu Heng and You Kun.

"How does it hurt?"

Wu Heng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "As soon as we came out, his magic weapon attacked us. Fortunately, there were two of us, and we worked together to resist, so we were not killed in one hit."

You Kun replied, "It's a minor injury, nothing serious."

Lin Chen then turned to Ning Hesheng and said, "So much time has passed, and you're still here. Didn't you manage to snatch even a single Dao Spirit?"

Ning Hesheng smiled slightly: "I've already managed to snag one."

Lin Chen said coldly, "You only needed to seize a portion of the Great Dao Spirit to exchange for it, as you said yourself. Now that you've succeeded, why are you still guarding this place? Are you bored and looking for fun killing people here?"
