Chapter 247 Lin Chen’s Mortal Heart
“Oh?”
Lin Chen smiled and looked at the black-clothed protector in front of him.
At this moment, the protector in black turned his back to Emperor Yan, and his expression was not visible to Emperor Yan.
But Lin Chen could see clearly.
The black-clothed protector looked at Lin Chen with frightened and evasive eyes.
"Half-step Nascent Soul, your cultivation is not easy...why did you join the demonic path?"
Lin Chen asked softly.
After hearing this voice, the protector in black was shocked.
He hurriedly transmitted the message:
"No, I dare not...Senior, I am also forced to have no choice. I am a golden elixir cultivator in Qingshi Town..."
The pleading voice of the black-clothed protector kept coming.
It’s just that such harmful things are not from his nature.
He was someone who was forced to do nothing...
Lin Chen naturally sneered at this.
Emperor Yan was a golden elixir cultivator. He couldn't see Lin Chen's depth just now, he only knew that Lin Chen was stronger than him.
But the protector in black can see it very clearly.
He is a half-step Nascent Soul, but he thinks he cannot be where Lin Chen was just now.
He knew that the person in front of him was a real Yuanying monk.
Maybe it was just a thought to kill him.
Lin Chen glanced at the black-clothed protector lightly.
The mana is mottled and the real energy is weak.
Among the three Nascent Soul Passes, I have only passed the Mana Pass.
I haven’t even passed the soul barrier, and I can’t leave my body.
With such a half-step Nascent Soul, it really doesn’t take much effort for Lin Chen to kill him.
But Lin Chen was not in a hurry to take action, but looked at Emperor Yan again.
“So, just for these thirty-six blood pills, you gave up a hundred thousand people under your rule?”
Evidently Emperor Yan didn’t know what was going on, he looked at it The protector in black eyes thought of how powerful the Demon Sect was now.
At this moment, it is a good opportunity for him to show his loyalty.
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Humph, aren't mere mortals just ants?"
"It is their honor to be the nourishment for our monks!"
After hearing this, Lin Chen no longer had any pity in his eyes.
With a flick of his finger, a ray of true energy penetrated the center of Yan Huang's eyebrows.
The cassock on Emperor Yan's body shone with the light of the protector, but was torn off by Lin Chen in an instant.
The next second, Emperor Yan died.
The majestic lord of a country, a golden elixir monk who has lived for hundreds of years.
Being destroyed at the snap of a finger made every monk in the hall feel at risk.
"Fellow Taoist Yan..."
"Father..."
Lin Chen looked at the monks in the temple.
He did not come here to ask for an explanation.
Just to kill people.
If you can’t hear or see, Lin Chen might be able to ignore it.
But now, he was inside the incident and witnessed it all.
How can we ignore it?
Mortal humans are not animals, nor are they insects that can be trampled to death at will.
He came from among mortals.
Now that he has succeeded in practicing Taoism, he cannot forget the way he came. That was his original intention.
Lin Chen raised his eyes and looked at the other monks in front of him.
The true energy turned into thin threads and strangled all the Jindan monks in the Yanlai royal family.
The black-clothed protector witnessed all this and was trembling again, but he did not dare to stop it.
The head of the Meng family observed the look of the protector in black and quickly begged for mercy:
"Senior, senior, have mercy on me!"
"I am a cultivator in Yanlai City. The head of the aristocratic family has always been kind to others and made many friends...it is really the pressure of Emperor Yan..."
Lin Chen looked at the head of the Meng family who was begging for mercy.
He was no stranger to it.
In the past many years, he has cooperated with the head of the Meng family.
But more than twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Mortals will change, and so will monks.
In the past, the Cai family betrayed the Righteous Alliance and everyone in the family was killed.
Today's Meng family seems to have embarked on this path.
Lin Chen asked in a calm tone:
"The head of the Xiao family, was he tricked and killed by you, right?"
After hearing this question, the head of the Meng family was stunned. , astonishment flashed in his eyes.
The next second, he felt his eyes turning and saw his headless lower body.
The head of the Meng family died.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen killed all the more than ten Jindan monks in the hall.
Only the protector in black is left.
"Senior, senior, please spare me!"
"I am a half-step Nascent Soul, and I am willing to follow you and work as an ox and a horse for your senior!"
The black-clothed protector knew that with his ability, it was impossible to escape from Lin Chen.
Just keep begging.
"I am willing to make a soul contract with my senior, and spend the rest of my life working for my senior..."
Lin Chen did not answer, and only took out the demon-slaying knife.
To kill half-step Nascent Soul, it is easier to use a magic weapon.
The black-clothed protector had despair in his eyes, and he also summoned the magic weapon, trying to fight to the death.
“Ah!”
The black knife flashed past...
...
A moment later, Lin Chen walked out of the Yanlaicheng Palace.
He raised his head and looked at the distant sky. A spiritual boat was flying towards the southwest.
At the same time, many demon sect secrets, royal family, and monks from the Meng family in Yan Lai City were preparing to stop him.
As Lin Chen waved his hand, a sword box appeared.
Thirty-six flying swords were unsheathed and streaked over Yanlai City.
After a while, when the spirit boat was far away, Lin Chen stopped and looked at the royal square in front of him.
Lin Chen raised his hand, and the surging Nascent Soul essence bombarded the formation. As spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the formation, the huge formation was destroyed.
The red light disappeared, and all the surviving monks in the formation raised their heads in unison.
They saw the sky.
There was doubt in their eyes.
In the formation, there was no sky, only blood-colored light, making them continue to fight.
But now, the red curtain faded, and they saw the real world.
Lin Chen saw surprise, relief, and enlightenment in the eyes of these monks...
He thought for a while and then sent a message:
"You are free."
This voice was wrapped in true energy and reached the ears of all the monks.
Perplexity flashed across their eyes at the same time.
For half a month, the daily fighting and the deaths of countless monks and mortals seemed to have made them numb.
"You are free...escape, escape from this city, escape from Yan Lai's territory."
After Lin Chen said this, he turned into a stream of light and turned around to leave.
After a long time after Lin Chen left, these monks seemed to finally react.
The nightmare of the past half month is over.
They tried their best to escape from the square and ran towards home and out of the city.
......
Lin Chen left Yanlai City.
Came to Guangyuan Town.
The old Guangyuan Auction has long since moved away.
Lin Chen walked around the town and only saw some old, weak, sick and disabled people.
This market town, which used to gather thousands of monks, also died.
Major shops have long been closed. Occasionally, you can still see towns that have been smashed and looted, and you can see the exhausted mortals.
A monk can travel thousands of miles a day and escape with his life.
But what about mortals? There is no escape...
Not to mention the robbery cultivators that can be seen everywhere, and the demon sect army that may be encountered at any time.
Just a thousand miles away, an ordinary mortal would have to travel for half a month.
Eating and sleeping in the open air along the way, encountering wild beasts and plagues, will lead to another dead end.
It is only a few thousand miles from Yanlai City to Guangyuan Town.
Lin Chen saw the destruction of countless cities and towns, and was used to seeing pagodas all over the place...
In the past, during the thousands of miles between Yanlai City and Guangyuan Town, countless cities and towns were destroyed. Villages, ordinary people.
Jie Xiu can only be encountered occasionally, and bandits and the like are even rarer.
But now, banditry can be seen everywhere, and refugees are moving south and west.
In the wilderness and on both sides of the official road, floating corpses of starved to death can be seen everywhere.
"The Demon Sect has not yet reached Guangyuan Town after all. It is just a rumor, so why is it like this?"
Lin Chen thought silently in his heart.
"Is this the so-called immortal?"
"What is the difference between monks and mortals...and devils?"
"When monks have power, they can treat mortals like grass and ants...and deal with their lives at will?"
"And mortals, even if they want to resist, have no power to resist at all..."
< br> Along the way, Lin Chen encountered many things and thought about many things.
If you are a monk, if you are an immortal, you are just aloof and untainted by the mortal world.
That is the best for mortals...
Because mortals will not be harmed, let alone be disrupted by monks.
But the current situation has made mortals become the nourishment of the monks, and even become... resources to support the monks!
The world of immortality has always been like this for thousands of years.
Mortals respect immortals, and immortals regard mortals as ants.
But it has always been like this...is it right?
Lin Chen is not from Qingzhou, but he is now the top monk in Qingzhou.
But he has a mortal heart, and he is willing to protest for the common people of Qingzhou.
"So? If mortals want to change this situation, they can only cultivate immortality..."
"There are only one or two out of ten people who have the qualifications to practice; and among these one or two, There is not even one person who has achieved success in cultivating the Tao..."
"Even if there is one Foundation-Building monk among thousands of mortals...the one who achieves success in the end will be just another evil dragon."< br>
Lin Chen was in a state of confusion at the moment, and for the first time he had doubts about the way he cultivated.
There is nothing wrong with power, but is it the people who are wrong?
"So...can we let everyone in the world have power!"
"Let all the people in Qingzhou have the power to resist the monks?"
" In this case...the Demon Sect, what is there to be afraid of?"
At this moment, a seed was planted in Lin Chen's heart.
An idea began to take root in his heart.
"Now, maybe it's not the time yet...but that day will come eventually."
Lin Chen didn't stay for too long, and flew towards the southeast again.
……
At the foot of Changchun Mountain, Fangshi.
Lin Chen walked into a shop.
The owner of the medicine shop is a foundation-building monk that Lin Chen has never seen before. His beard and hair are all white.
“Fellow Taoist, do you want to buy some elixirs?”
After seeing Lin Chen, the shopkeeper stepped forward and asked diligently.
"Fellow Taoist is a bit unfamiliar, but you just escaped to Changchun Mountain?"
"It's a coincidence, fellow Taoist, the elixirs in our store are on sale recently, all at 40% off..."
Lin Chen looked around I walked around the store and was in no rush to buy. , but asked:
"Fellow Taoist, I see that most of the shops in this market are closed."
"I heard that the Demon Sect has entered the Yan Lai Realm... Why don’t fellow Taoists escape?”
After hearing Lin Chen's words, the shopkeeper smiled, and while wiping the dust in the shop, he replied:
"Escape? Where can you escape?"
"Huh... …The underworld is so powerful that their territory covers tens of thousands of miles.”
“I escaped from the Yan Lai Realm... That journey to the west, more than 100,000 miles, there were countless tribulations along the way...”
“Not to mention the foundation-building monks, that’s it. A master of Jindan may not be able to finish the journey alive..."
Lin Chen was silent after hearing this.
Yes!
Go west for a hundred thousand miles to reach the Humanity City.
It is difficult for the Golden elixir monks to complete this journey, let alone the foundation-building monks...
How about the mortals?
