Yan Baichen suddenly disappeared, startling Long Chen because at the very moment he vanished, Long Chen couldn't detect his presence.
"Boom!"
At that moment, Feng You's golden spear shot out, piercing the ground at Long Chen's feet. With a loud explosion, the earth split apart, flying stones flew and a figure emerged in response—it was Yan Baichen.
"Earth Elemental Ability" At that moment,
Long Chen suddenly understood. No wonder he suddenly couldn't sense him—it turned out he had merged underground. Moreover, this guy wasn't stupid—he used his powerful blood energy to mask his earth power.
Even Long Chen fell for it. According to his estimation, this guy should have lunged at him, but unexpectedly, underground, if Feng You hadn't intervened, Long Chen would have been caught off guard and probably suffered a huge loss. Damn, this guy was actually playing dumb to outsmart the tiger, and he was acting so convincing.
"Boom!"
Feng You struck, forcing Yan Baichen back. All the Beast Fusion Clan experts entered combat mode simultaneously, taking up a stance. At Feng You's command, they would unleash their full power.
It must be said, the Fusion Beast Clan has long been harassed by major powers, fighting year after year. Their reaction speed and instantly ignited fighting spirit are rare. So far, aside from the Dragonblood Legion, this is the most lethal team Long Chen has ever seen.
"Yan Baichen, as long as I'm here, I won't let you lay a finger on Long Chen. Whether we fight or not, a single word is decided."
Feng You held a long spear, standing in front of Long Chen. His golden hair fluttered in the wind, exuding heroic spirit and murderous intent—an indescribable sense of coolness.
Watching Feng You's back, Long Chen smiled. The feeling of being protected by a woman behind him seemed pretty good, especially when he saw Yan Baichen's fiery gaze, which gave him an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
Long Chen poked his head out from Feng You's side and quietly gave Yan Baichen the middle finger, his expression as deserving of a beating as it could be.
Yan Baichen was trembling with anger, but with Feng You blocking him, if he wanted to kill Long Chen, he had to defeat Feng You first.
He was filled with apprehension toward Feng You, and at the same time, he dared not rashly start a conflict. After all, the two sides were evenly matched, and if they fought here, not only would there be no winner, but it would also result in massive casualties.
Such casualties were unbearable for both the Fusion Beast Clan and the Black Rock Nine Nether Python Clan.
After all, the Xuanling Realm and the Void Spirit Realm were about to open, and no one wanted to cause more trouble.
"Alright, let's wait and see." Yan Baichen pointed at Long Chen, his fingers trembling, and finally gritted his teeth and led his men away.
Watching Yan Baichen and the others walk away, Feng You breathed a sigh of relief. In truth, she didn't want to fight this idiot either.
There have been too many battles these days. Although the strong warriors here are the elite of the Fusion Beast Clan, they are truly exhausted soldiers and need rest what they need most. In contrast, the Black Rock Nine Nether Python members are all fully recovered and at their peak. If a real fight breaks out, they will definitely suffer.
"Let's slow down!" Long Chen said.
Feng You nodded. If she slowed down, it would be harder to meet with other forces, and she wouldn't run into enemies on a narrow road and have another headache.
Later, everyone simply found a relatively secluded place to rest, and Long Chen took advantage of this opportunity to begin refining some medicinal powder with the Qiankun Cauldron.
When he saw the Qiankun Cauldron again, Feng You looked shocked and said, "You actually know how to refine pills?" "
Not exactly skilled, just to make a living. As the saying goes, 'the more skills you have, the better you are.' After all, the more things you master, the more surviving trump cards you can use." Long Chen chuckled.
Anyway, Feng You and the others knew nothing about alchemy, and Long Chen could just brush him off, so they wouldn't press further.
Inside Long Chen's chaotic space, countless rare herbs had already matured. It was inconvenient to refine pills now, but it was still necessary to prepare the powder in advance.
If it were an ordinary rare medicine, Long Chen wouldn't need help; with Huo Ling'er and the Qiankun Cauldron working together, it would suffice. But Saint-grade rare medicines are different—Long Chen must get involved.
At first, the strong members of the Fusion Beast Clan were very curious about alchemy, but when they saw Long Chen repeatedly refining some powder, they gradually lost interest.
And Long Chen didn't intend to reveal his alchemy skills, which made Feng You even more convinced that Long Chen knew more than he was skilled. Although his strength wasn't great, he had countless tricks and could join the ranks of experts with all sorts of flashy tricks.
Because she remembered that Long Chen had once used medicinal powder to confuse the golden monkey's eyes and successfully ambushed it, causing it to die in the chaos. Although this technique was somewhat low-level, it sometimes produced miraculous results.
Thus, everyone walked along the way, stopping and stopping. When they stopped, Long Chen began refining various powders to prepare for future pill refining.
Three days later, the Beast Fusion clan experts began to advance quickly, and on the fifth day, they encountered another team of Beast Fusion clan experts.
Only then did Long Chen understand that the Beast Fusion Clan was like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, and there were secret bases elsewhere.
However, Feng You was definitely the leader among the younger generation of the Beast Fusion Clan. Even among those powerful prodigies, they all treated Feng You with utmost respect.
However, a few people weren't so friendly toward Long Chen. Although they weren't provocative, they always appeared cold and distant. Even when Long Chen and Feng You got closer, their eyes carried a certain inexplicable jealousy.
Of course, Long Chen wouldn't feel uncomfortable because of their jealousy. He had seen this kind of thing many times. He was here mainly for convenience, so he wouldn't be wasting time wandering around like a fly.
However, Feng You seemed completely unaware, still chatting and laughing with Long Chen, occasionally asking him about the situation beyond the Ninth Heaven. Long Chen would pick out interesting things to tell her, which made her feel very intrigued.
However, as everyone advanced, more and more tribal races appeared. The faces of the Fusion Beast Clan experts gradually grew serious, and they were on full alert at every moment.
Soon, Long Chen saw a group of human powerhouses, and those human experts also saw him. However, they lacked the warmth of their kind; from their eyes, Long Chen could only see coldness and rejection.
Some human experts even made a throat-slitting gesture at Long Chen and threatened the Fusion Beast Clan to drive Long Chen away as an invader, threatening to attack him in rebellion.
However, Feng You was extremely tough, only responding to their one sentence: if you want to die, go ahead and fight. Although many powerful members of the Fusion Beast Clan were displeased with Long Chen, no one expressed any intention to drive him away. This actually moved Long Chen a little.
As they advanced, more and more factions began to provoke the Fusion Beast Clan. They even tacitly formed groups to intercept them. Just as Feng You was about to kill to assert his authority, a sudden cold wind swept in, and those blocking them fled as if they'd seen a ghost.
When Long Chen turned to look, his scalp tingled, and sweat broke out on his back all at once.
"Run!"
Feng You's expression changed, and she grabbed Long Chen and ran.
