The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 681 This guy doesn't hesitate to kill people at all!

Murong Feng was ultimately a proud and arrogant cultivation genius. In his mind, Lin Chen was just a newcomer from outside who had gotten the Water and Fire Mirror by sheer luck. He had nothing else to offer, so why should he compete with him for Su Mubai?

Is he worthy?
Lin Chen's words thoroughly enraged Murong Feng.

He slammed his palm onto the sword gourd.

The gourd's mouth flashed with light, and countless flying swords shot out like beams of light, heading towards Lin Chen like a rain of swords.

Lin Chen's water mirror shimmered, and the water light shone brightly.

An ice storm burst forth from the water mirror with almost violent force, instantly engulfing the incoming flying swords.

The extremely cold ice storm instantly froze the flying swords into blocks of ice, and the powerful spiritual energy contained within the ice storm blew these flying swords into pieces.

Murong Feng's expression changed drastically. Although he had seen Lin Chen use the Water-Fire Mirror before, he realized how terrifying its power was when he actually faced it!
Lin Chen's water mirror swayed again, and an ice spear instantly appeared in the air, carrying endless chilling energy, and rushed towards Murong Feng in the distance.

Ice spears are extremely fast!

Murong Feng's expression changed drastically. He stretched out his right hand, and a cyan umbrella appeared in his hand. The umbrella opened, and endless radiance rose up, enveloping him within it.

The ice spear pierced the umbrella surface.

The radiance instantly dimmed, the umbrella surface tore apart inch by inch, the umbrella ribs first straightened, then bent, and finally shattered, but the ice spear also shattered, turning into a large cloud of cold air that dissipated in the air.

Murong Feng coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with terror.

Green silk umbrella!
Such a powerful defensive magic weapon only managed to block one of Lin Chen's attacks!
An ice spear actually shattered the Azure Silk Umbrella!
Murong Feng slapped the gourd, dragged the green umbrella, turned and ran. The flying swords that were originally attacking Lin Chen instantly flew back, following Murong Feng's fleeing figure, and then flew into the sword gourd.

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow. That umbrella is quite powerful; it actually blocked Shui Jing's fierce attack!
It seems that before I can truly master my Three-Foot Sword Curtain, I need to find some powerful defensive magic weapons for myself, otherwise I'll be at a great disadvantage in battle.

Although he had the Xuan Turtle Shield and the Green Silk Armor given to him by Qiao Wei, Lin Chen had roughly assessed that these two items could only be considered relatively good defensive magical artifacts, and were still a bit far from being true magic treasures.

The Water-Fire Mirror is an incredibly powerful magic weapon, but it focuses more on attack and is less effective in defense. If Murong Feng had controlled the flying swords to fly around him from all sides instead of charging at him all at once, the Xuan Turtle Shield would have been unable to withstand the attack, and he would have suffered a great loss.

Lin Chen silently kept the matter of searching for powerful defensive magic treasures in mind.

The fight was extremely swift and brief. Because it took place in mid-air, there were no bystanders and no one was alerted, as if it had never happened. However, Lin Chen knew that he and Murong Feng were now locked in a fierce battle.

This guy has a handsome appearance, but he's narrow-minded. Logically speaking, the three of them were fighting the tree demon together, so they should be considered comrades-in-arms facing life and death together. But just because he got a little closer to Su Mubai, he wanted to kill him. Thinking about it carefully, perhaps it's because Murong Feng has never respected him. And because of this, the more Su Mubai gets closer to him, the more humiliated he feels.

Ask Qiao Wei how to handle this matter.

Lin Chen returned to his cave, took Mei Nu out of his pocket, and laughed, "You need to get stronger quickly. Look, you almost got bullied."

Mei watched the whole thing from inside the bag and gained a new understanding of Lin Chen's ruthlessness.

That ice spear strike was absolutely merciless!
If Murong Feng hadn't possessed a powerful defensive magic weapon that blocked the attack, he probably would have been killed instantly.

This guy doesn't hesitate to kill people at all!

“Master, your cave has a spirit-gathering formation that can gather spiritual energy. I can absorb spiritual energy here to cultivate, but if you use the Life-Gathering Pearl to help me, I will grow faster.”

The cave dwellings were all concealed by arrays, so Lin Chen didn't need to worry about being seen by anyone. He threw Mei Nu on the ground and said, "Find a place for yourself."

The thirty-centimeter-long Vine waved its roots and stopped in a fertile field behind the cave. The roots extended and instantly plunged into the soil, with only a small section protruding above the ground.

Lin Chen took out the Life-Giving Pearl, touched it to the Vajra Vine, and took out the Water-Fire Mirror, pointing the slightly damaged water mirror at the Life-Giving Pearl.

The abundant spiritual energy instantly transformed into boundless vitality, continuously flowing into the Vajra Vine.

On the Vajra Vine, Mei Nu's adorable little face revealed an expression of utter contentment: "Master, it would be even better if you could have some more spiritual herbs."

Lin Chen took out a few spirit fruits and threw them to Mei Nu. The vines danced and quickly wrapped around the spirit fruits, and then Mei Nu remained motionless with a look of enjoyment on her face.

Lin Chen looked at Mei Nu, then at the fields, and a thought suddenly struck him.

Miraculous medicine!

You don't necessarily need to go into the secret realm to collect them; you can grow your own medicinal herbs.

Although many rare and top-grade spiritual herbs cannot be artificially cultivated, most spiritual herbs can be cultivated. You can buy spiritual herb seeds, grow spiritual herbs, and collect resources to exchange for Xuan Tie Wu Jing to cultivate the Three-Foot Sword Curtain. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
perfect!
