Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2002: Chapter 2003: Recovery

As soon as the giant serpent appeared, after glancing at Lin Chen and Wu Yunqi, it immediately fixed its cold gaze on Wu Yunqi. This was because, when comparing the strength between Lin Chen and Wu Yunqi, it was naturally Wu Yunqi who appeared more suspicious. Moreover, Wu Yunqi was striking a pose of attack, how could the giant serpent not be suspicious?

At this moment, Wu Yunqi’s expression also became very grave, and he murmured:

”It’s actually a Black Iron Python of the third realm of the divine spirit!”

The Black Iron Python is an extremely powerful and troublesome beast, with a robust physical body and tough, thick skin. Not only is it poisonous, but these creatures are notoriously petty and vengeful!

Now, it’s obvious that this Black Iron Python has set its sights on Wu Yunqi. Although Wu Yunqi’s strength surpasses Lin Chen’s by quite a margin, in the face of such a troublesome Black Iron Python, he also found himself in a headache-inducing situation.

At this point, Lin Chen showed a mischievous smile that made him look quite exasperated, and then said:

”Haha! The gift I prepared for you is not bad, right? Take your time playing with it! I’m leaving now!”

Having said that, Lin Chen’s figure moved, heading towards the outer mountain range at a distance!

Previously, when everyone was executing their mission, they were in the southern region of the mountain range. But now, Lin Chen’s direction was towards the north, clearly worried about getting surrounded by other members of the Blood Refining Mercenary Corps outside. Therefore, he went straight for the northern outer mountain area, which was much larger. If Lin Chen really fled into the mountain, the Blood Refining Mercenary Corps would have no other way to capture Lin Chen except waiting for him to come out voluntarily.

Wu Yunqi also understood the situation and immediately wanted to chase after to stop Lin Chen. But just then, the Black Iron Python let out a sudden screech, followed by a thick iron tail sweeping towards Wu Yunqi!

If Wu Yunqi didn’t dodge it, even though his cultivation surpassed that of the Black Iron Python, he wouldn’t fare any better upon getting hit. Therefore, in desperation, Wu Yunqi had no choice but to activate his divine essence, gathering a gray palm imprint that furiously repelled the Black Iron Python’s attack!

With this, Lin Chen’s speed took a sharp turn, sprinting swiftly away, and Wu Yunqi’s attack completely enraged the Black Iron Python, leading it to launch an even more furious assault!

In response to this, Wu Yunqi was also ignited with rage. Initially, he was already feeling oppressed due to Lin Chen’s actions, and now the Black Iron Python was continuously obstructing him in such a manner.

Immediately, Wu Yunqi unleashed his full momentum, and sensing his aura, the Black Iron Python hesitated slightly but still attacked!

Wu Yunqi, being a mercenary, had rich combat experience with beasts. Coupled with his swift actions, he drew his long knife, and after just a few moves, the Black Iron Python suffered severe injuries to its vital spots, collapsing on the ground, critically injured.

With a gloomy face, Wu Yunqi sheathed his long knife, looked up, and saw that Lin Chen’s figure had long disappeared from sight!

Just then, Fan Li finally arrived with the others. Upon arrival, they were met with the sight of Wu Yunqi, filled with murderous intent, and the gigantic corpse of the Black Iron Python on the ground. Curiosity arose in his mind, and he immediately asked:

”Elder Wu! Where did Lin Chen go? What exactly happened?”

Wu Yunqi, looking displeased, glanced in the direction of Lin Chen’s disappearance and coldly said:

”That Lin Chen used trickery, somehow lured this Black Iron Python to attack me, and then took the opportunity to escape into the northern outskirts of the Demon Beast Mountain Range!”

”What? What should we do then? The mountainous area to the north is quite large! Catching him will be difficult!”

Fan Li, upon hearing Wu Yunqi’s words, furrowed his brows, though he acted recklessly, he was still quite smart.

Yet, now Wu Yunqi clearly had the determination to kill, immediately saying:

”Young master, rest assured! Lin Chen has a Divine King’s treasure on him and has caused considerable damage to our Blood Refining Mercenary Corps! We must capture him!”

”Although he escaped into the northern mountain range, which is large indeed, there’s only one exit in the northern mountain range, and that’s the edge of this forest. Otherwise, he’d have no means of coming out without venturing deep into the inner perimeter of the Demon Beast Mountain Range!”

”Send people to guard this forest, then summon all members of the mercenary corps to conduct a search of the entire mountain range! I refuse to believe he can disappear into thin air! Rest assured, he’s definitely too scared to escape right now and is hiding. This gives us time to set up; he absolutely won’t get away!”

Upon hearing this, Fan Li nodded, and the two immediately set about making arrangements. Leaving Wu Yunqi stationed there with people, Fan Li returned to Nanping County City to find manpower for a large-scale search of the entire mountain range!

As they began their moves, at this time, within the mountain range, in a secluded valley, Lin Chen had entered a cave, evicted a divine eight-ranked bear, and then set up two simple formations at the entrance before going inside the cave.

After this journey of fighting and fleeing, Lin Chen was significantly depleted, with nearly all his energy exhausted.

Be it the battles with Fan Li, the clashes with Li Fengxing, or the far distance chased by Wu Yunqi, his divine essence had been burning at a maddening pace. If not for Xiao Lian’s support, he would likely have been completely drained and caught by them.

At this moment, Lin Chen took three divine crystals from his Storage Ring, placed them beside him, sat cross-legged, and quickly entered a state of cultivation. Soon, his cultivation began to slowly recover. Under the absorption of Xiao Lian, streams of pure divine energy gradually entered Lin Chen’s meridians, and the divine essence he had expended gradually started to replenish.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Chen finally opened his eyes, and his aura reached its peak.

Letting out a breath, Lin Chen clenched his fists, then murmured:

”It seems I’ve reached the point where I can break through to the ninth realm of divine scholars!”

It turns out that during this period of tasks as a mercenary, Lin Chen frequently fought beasts. In these past few days, battles had ensued endlessly, and even consistently fleeing afterward, his internal divine essence remained in a turbulent state. Adding to this, his foundation of strength was immensely solid, without any signs of illusory power. Naturally, under such conditions, he swiftly approached the point of breaking through to the next realm.
