Lin Shen looked at the two of them with a faint smile.

These two guys were trying to stalk him. Even in Xuandu Mountain, they were still chasing after him.

When Luo Deng heard the voice, he looked up and saw that it was Lin Shen. He was shocked and took out his weapon without hesitation.

The corners of Lian Xi’s eyes twitched when he saw this. He glared at Luo Deng, feeling disappointed.

He had originally wanted to feign civility with Lin Shen and wait for Lin Shen to let down his guard before launching a sneak attack. But now, Luo Deng had ruined that plan.

At this point, they could only make a direct attack.

Lian Xi sneered. Just as he was about to speak, his gaze landed on Lin Shen’s palm. His eyes suddenly widened.

“Mystic Essence Wood Spirit!”

After the shock, Lian Xi was overjoyed and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“I’ve searched high and low for it, only to find it without any effort!

“1 was still wondering where to find the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit later, but it has come knocking on my door!”

After laughing wildly for a moment, Lian Xi stopped laughing and stared at Lin Shen sinisterly.

“You’re a lucky brat. You caught the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit so quickly. Unfortunately, you can’t guard it. If you know what’s good for you, hand the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit to me, and 1 can let you leave!”

Lian Xi’s eyes flickered.

Of course, he didn’t really intend to let Lin Shen leave.

However, the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit was currently in Lin Shen’s hand. If he pushed too hard, Lin Shen might let the wood spirit escape. It would be difficult for him to capture it again.

Therefore, he planned to calm Lin Shen down first. When he took the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit, from Lin Shen, the brat would be at his mercy.

Lin Shen glanced at Lian Xi and immediately guessed his intentions. He couldn’t help but smile and casually put the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit into the beast trap bag he had prepared.

Lian Xi’s expression immediately darkened. He said in a cold tone, “Kid, you should take the offer while it’s still on!”

“Or what?”

Lin Shen narrowed his eyes, and there was a cold glint in them.

He didn’t move much, but seven streaks of sword-shaped energy suddenly condensed in the air and separated behind him like a peacock spreading its tail.

In the next moment, a sharp and short sound of air being torn apart suddenly burst out!

Seven streaks of energy shot out like lightning, piercing through the void and shooting toward Lian Xi and Luo Deng!

Sensing the terrifying power contained in the energy, Lian Xi and Luo Deng were both terrified.

Lian Xi reacted first. He let out a strange cry and immediately dodged to the side. At the same time, he took out a bone tablet and raised his hand, turning it into a large shield with a green face and fangs.

Clang! Clang!

The two streaks of sword energy hit the bone shield almost at the same time. Sparks flew everywhere, and two obvious dents instantly appeared on the surface of the shield!

When he saw this from the corner of his eye, Lian Xi was shocked.

The Ghost Bone Shield was the only superior-grade enchanted armament he had on him. He would have to nurture it with his spiritual essence for two weeks before it could recover from the damage.

He was also astonished by the power of Lin Shen’s attack.

Just two streaks of the sword energy could damage his superior-grade enchanted armament. If all seven streaks hit the shield, it might be completely destroyed.

At this moment, Lian Xi realized that he had made a big mistake.

The young man in front of him wasn’t what he had expected and only had three or four meridians.

Judging by the attack just now, he had at least thirty meridians!

Lian Xi couldn’t help but feel bitter.

This kid was clearly very strong. Why didn’t he show it before?

Even if he had only revealed a little of his strength and made Lian Xi retreat, the situation today wouldn’t have happened.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets!

At this moment, a miserable scream suddenly rang out.

Lian Xi immediately recognized Luo Deng’s voice. He turned around and was scared out of his wits.

Luo Deng didn’t react as fast as Lian Xi. By the time he reacted and wanted to dodge, it was already too late. He could only brace himself and swing the bronze hammers to meet the sword energy.

With only two dull clangs, the two copper hammers were knocked away by the two streaks of energy, and the remaining three hit him directly.

Mystic light lit up, and then it only lasted for an instant before suddenly dimming.

In front of the Seven Arts Sword Energy, Luo Deng’s middle-grade enchantment robe only lasted for an instant before it was destroyed.

The moment the light dissipated, Luo Deng was sent flying as if he had been struck by lightning. When he landed, there were three bloody holes in his chest, one of which happened to be in his heart!

Seeing this scene, Lian Xi felt a chill run down his spine, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Luo Deng wasn’t much weaker than Lian Xi, but he was killed as soon as Lin Shen made a move. If the fight continued, Lian Xi would undoubtedly follow in Luo Deng’s footsteps.

At this moment, Lian Xi no longer had any thoughts about the Mystic Essence Wood Spirit. All he had was the thought of escaping!

With a terrified expression, he took out something from his sleeve and threw it at Lin Shen. Then, without even looking, he turned around and quickly fled into the distance.

The object was only the size of a longan. It was round like a steel bead, but its surface was covered in dense lightning patterns.

Halfway through, the bead suddenly emitted a blinding light.

Accompanied by a light explosion that burned the air, a chain of blazing white light suddenly tore through the void and hit Lin Shen with a bang!

In an instant, lightning bolts splashed in all directions and hit the surrounding trees!

Amidst the explosions, more than ten thick trees were snapped in half. Then, they burned and turned into charcoal in the blink of an eye!

However, when the dust dissipated, Lin Shen, who was in the center of the lightning strike, wasn’t injured at all.. A layer of golden armor on his body protected him!
