The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression changed drastically. “Heavens!” she exclaimed in astonishment. “An Lin, he… he can unleash five types of heavenly god powers at once?!”
Xue Yan was also transfixed to the spot upon seeing An Lin’s complete disregard for his own body as he fought to save Chen Chen.
An Lin could sacrifice so much for Chen Chen. What right did she have to criticize An Lin and Chen Chen’s relationship?
Rumble…
Another burst of power suddenly materialized in the mystic realm and lunged at An Lin!
“Sh*t! The Heaven Crushing Sect’s autonomous protection spell formation has been activated!” Cyril’s expression changed slightly, and he immediately used his powers to suppress the attacks of the spell formation.
The Heaven Crushing Sect’s autonomous protection spell formation had evidently categorized An Lin as a Heavenly God. After all, the powers that he had unleashed were far too similar to the Heavenly Gods’ powers. No… they were genuinely heavenly god powers…
An Lin had already discovered a tiny flaw in the Light Seed. However, he still needed more power to prise open and destroy it. The level of this heavenly light power was scarily high, and ordinary powers didn’t even possess the ability to near it.
However, An Lin wasn’t worried at all. This was because he possessed several heavenly god powers.
Both he and the Heavenly Light Goddess were using heavenly god powers. Although their levels were different, they were at least the same type of powers. As such, the repulsive forces that he experienced would be much lower, and he would definitely be able to drill a small hole into Heavenly Light Goddess’ power. If one heavenly god power wasn’t enough, then he would use two heavenly god powers. If two heavenly god powers were still not enough, then he would use all five of his heavenly god powers!
…
Within the eternally undying and unceasingly exploding orb of light…
There was the screech of metal, the roar of lightning, the tremor of mountains, the crackling of flames, and the howl of winds…
According to some peculiar pattern, An Lin’s five heavenly god powers relentlessly attacked the flaw that he had discovered. Under these ferocious attacks, a thin black line suddenly appeared on the pure orb of light.
“He actually succeeded?” A look of disbelief surfaced on Cyril’s face.
Xue Yan was so elated that she had already lost the ability to speak. She clenched her fists tightly as she stared at the scene before her, and she was completely oblivious to the fact that her fingernails had already dug into her palms.
Chen Chen had clearly placed himself in a state of voidness already. Yet, it was as if his and An Lin’s hearts were connected at this moment. He actively cooperated with An Lin’s power and started to launch a final assault on the orb of light in his chest!
Once the eternal nature of the light was shattered, it was plunged into a state of irreversible decay. The thin black line in the orb of light grew larger and larger, and in the end, it eventually engulfed the entire orb of light. Then, it disappeared into nothingness.
Without the relentless explosions of the Light Seed, the gaping hole in Chen Chen’s chest started to heal at a speed that was discernible to the naked eye. In no time, it had already made a full recovery.
“Pfff…” Chen Chen spat out a mouthful of black blood. He then started to cough violently.
“Chen Chen! Are you okay?” Xue Yan immediately ran over to help Chen Chen up.
“I’m fine…” Chen Chen nodded as he opened his eyes with great difficulty. He looked in front of him and said, “An Lin… thank you. I never thought that you’d be able to help me cleanse—”
His words lodged in his throat as his eyes eventually focused on the male before him.
An Lin’s eyes were bloodshot, and tears of blood were streaming down his incredibly pale face. Even his aura had become like a flickering candle, and it was as if his existence could be blown out at any moment.
“It’s good… to hear that you’re fine… I’ve finally managed to help you out… Your appearance before… made us all feel extremely anxious…” A smile appeared across An Lin’s face.
As he smiled, blood started to seep out from his nose and ears as well.
Chen Chen’s mouth gaped open. Your appearance now is what’s truly making us all feel extremely anxious!
An Lin still wanted to speak, yet a feeling of extreme exhaustion and dizziness had already engulfed his consciousness.
“An Lin!”
“Sect Leader An Lin!”
Chen Chen dashed forward and caught An Lin’s falling body. He didn’t care at all that blood was drenching his linen clothes bright red. His indifferent expression had been replaced with one of worry, and the rims of his eyes had already become red with emotion.
“An Lin, did you really need to do this…
“I clearly could’ve dealt with that power by myself…”
Chen Chen used all his powers to stabilize An Lin’s condition as he held onto his bleeding body.
“Initially, I didn’t understand why you risked enraging the Heavenly Light Goddess in order to capture the Heavenly Fire God for An Lin,” Cyril sighed and said. “Now, however, I feel that everything you did was very worth it…”
Xue Yan pursed her lips as she recalled her attitude toward An Lin. A feeling of shame welled up in her heart, and even her ice-cold face felt like it was burning in embarrassment.
As for the Ancient Dragon Empress, she already didn’t know what to say apart from shouting words of praise. Time and time again, An Lin had flipped her view of the world on its head. This was especially the case now, as An Lin had managed to eliminate the Light Seed that even Cyril couldn’t deal with. It was impossible not to feel impressed.
The cultivator who’d had to hide in a turtle shell when he first saw her had already grown to become a supreme being who was even more powerful than her… The Ancient Dragon Empress had initially thought that her growth was already extremely quick. Compared to An Lin, however, the speed of her growth paled into insignificance.
…
Within a vast expanse of darkness, everything was murky and unclear.
After what felt like an eternity, An Lin suddenly saw an expanse of pure light within the murkiness…
He had a feeling that his relatives, friends, disciples, and home were all contained within that expanse of pure light. That light signified all possessions and existence, beauty and hope, and everything that he craved for and desired to protect.
He wanted to go near that light, yet no matter what he did, he was unable to draw closer to it.
He could only stare at the distant light as he struggled within an infinite realm of darkness. Like a beached fish, he could only thrash about in agony as he waited for death to befall him.
“N-no…
“Save me! Let me head over there!”
An Lin extended his arms and grabbed toward the light. However, he discovered that the darkness before him was slightly coarse. Moreover, it also carried a hint of warmth…
The light became brighter and brighter.
An Lin finally opened his eyes.
He discovered that one of his hands was clutching at Chen Chen’s clothes while his other hand was lightly caressing Chen Chen’s chest…
“Er…” An Lin was slightly dazed. The atmosphere around him had become extremely awkward.
A dark expression had fallen across Xue Yan’s face.
However, Chen Chen’s expression was still fairly natural. He smiled happily and said, “An Lin, you’re finally awake. Do you feel better now?”
An Lin immediately retracted his hands and checked the condition of his body. To his surprise, he found that the wounds caused by the backlash of the heavenly light power had all been healed already. Not only that, but his body was also full of energy and vigor. He had already made a full recovery!
“This… I’m fine!” An Lin replied excitedly.
“Of course you are,” Xue Yan muttered softly. “Chen Chen fed you all of his most valuable pills.”
Chen Chen shot a glance at Xue Yan.
Xue Yan immediately shut up.
A short moment later, however, she spoke again, “An Lin.”
“Huh? What’s the matter?” An Lin looked toward the beautiful female.
Xue Yan took a deep breath and said, “I’m sorry. I went too far when talking to you before. I apologize for my words…”
“It’s okay. You also had Chen Chen’s well-being in mind,” An Lin said with a kind smile.
Like a blooming lotus on a snowy mountain, a beautiful smile appeared on Xue Yan’s face.
“Thank you, An Lin.”
