Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 5299: Second form?

Translator: 549690339

With its strong body, the brain-eating insect wasn’t afraid of Lin Yi’s tricks at all. It didn’t hesitate to use its steel claws to block Lin Yi’s attack. Last time, it used these steel claws to destroy the Qi pellet bomb, and this time was no exception.

However, Lin Yi wasn’t stupid enough to go head to head with it. With the strength of the opponent’s body, even a xuansheng stage cultivator wouldn’t be able to gain the upper hand, let alone a peak Foundation Stage cultivator like him. It would be suicide if he really did that.

Accompanied by a deep dragon roar, a stream of killing Qi of the five elements, which seemed to have materialized, left his hand and met the steel claws first. The result was unsurprisingly that he was caught by the other party in an instant, leaving nothing behind. It was a classic example of hitting a rock with an egg.

“Hehe, is this all you’ve got?” The brain-eating insect sneered. In its opinion, this method was much weaker than the true Qi pellet fire bomb just now. Although the true Qi pellet fire bomb was simple and violent, its power couldn’t be underestimated. It could still cause some damage by stuffing it into its mouth just now. As for the seemingly delicate five elements killing Qi, it was nothing in front of it.

Before he finished his words, another killing intent of five elements had already arrived in front of him. The brain-eating insect suddenly became more contemptuous and lazily stretched out its steel claws again. At the same time, it sneered,””This little power is not even enough to scratch an itch. It’ll be the same even if you do it a thousand or ten thousand times. It’s a waste of energy!”

However, this time, there was a layer of dense Eight Trigrams patterns on the five elements killing intent. It was many times more profound than the previous five elements killing intent. It was like a real five elements Eight Trigrams flood Dragon!

Kengchi! Not only did the brain-eating insect’s steel claws fail to tear it apart, but it was also bitten by it. The entire Steel Claw was instantly broken at the root, and blood spurted out in an instant, splashing all over the sky.

The brain-eating insect suddenly howled in pain. Although it was careless, its fighting instinct was not weak. Its brain did not react in time, but the poisonous tail thorn had already stabbed back. However, before it could stab, the five elements Eight Trigrams Dragon roared again and sent it flying with its tail. It smashed into the mud below and could not extricate itself.

This scene happened too quickly. Even Duanmu Yu was dumbstruck, let alone the brain-eating insect that was beaten to a pulp.

It was the same five-element killing intent, and it couldn’t even take a hit just now-how did it become so strong all of a sudden? what was even more shocking was, where did Lin Yi go?

Duanmu Yu was confused, but the brain-eating insect wasn’t stupid. It was caught off guard and suffered a big loss. Its brain worked extremely fast. It looked at the five elements and Eight Trigrams flood Dragon in the sky and said, “You’re Lin Yi?!”

The Dragon didn’t say anything, but it had a human-like expression on its face. It was clear that the brain-eating insect was right-it was Lin Yi!

“How … How is this possible?” Duanmu Yu didn’t know what to say anymore. She knew that Lin Yi was a spirit, but a spirit was just a spirit. From what she knew, a spirit could only take on the form of a fog, and it couldn’t change into any other form. She couldn’t say that Lin Yi’s real form was a Dragon, could she?!

Lin Yi, of course, wasn’t a Dragon. The only reason he could become like this was all thanks to her, Duanmu Yu.

Originally, Lin Yi’s low level of Foundation Stage was far from enough to use the killing intent of the five elements and Eight Trigrams, but this time, with the Enlightenment, his strength was completely different even though he was still in the same stage. This was because he’d learned the rejuvenation of withered leaves.

Of course, what he comprehended wasn’t the original version of ‘rejuvenation of the withered leaves’. It didn’t recover true Qi or heal his own injuries, but it was related to his primordial spirit!

The human body had a self-protection mechanism, and so did the primordial spirit. In theory, after being severely injured, the primordial spirit would not collapse directly, but would enter a state of self-dormancy like the body. In other words, one could only use 70% of one’s strength at most, and the remaining 30% was used for self-protection. There was an extremely strong gate between the two, and it was impossible to use it normally even if one wanted to.

Spirit leaf sect ‘s’ rejuvenation of withered leaves ‘could open up the gates of the physical body after it was injured and allow it to recover to its peak state in a short period of time. However, this state was like the final radiance of the setting sun, so there were great side effects.

And now, after three days of meditation, he’d successfully found the valve that locked the essence spirit!

Once the valve was opened, the strength of the spirit would increase by more than 30%, or even more. Lin Yi’s strength was already at the peak of Foundation Stage, and after the 30% increase, he would immediately become a golden core Master. Even if it was temporary, the extra strength was not fake.

Of course, with such a huge gap in strength between him and the brain-eating insects, not to mention a temporary golden core, even a real golden core was useless. At most, the power of the true Qi pill fire bomb was stronger, but the effect was still limited against the brain-eating insects.

There was no need to mention the killing intent of the five elements, but it did not include the killing intent of the five elements and Eight Trigrams!

In terms of level, just the killing intent of the five elements was far above that of a golden core stage cultivator. After all, this was a move that was invincible even in the original infant stage. It was just that Lin Yi’s level was too low, and he was facing a monster like the brain-eating insect at the same time, so it seemed so powerless.

But the [five elements Eight Trigrams] killing intent was different-it was on a much higher level than the [five elements Eight Trigrams] killing intent, and the level of suppression it displayed against the brain-eating insect was far beyond the actual suppression of the insect’s strength. To put it bluntly, the [five elements Eight Trigrams] killing intent was enough to completely reverse the balance between the two.

However, even if Lin Yi had reached the temporary golden core stage, he still wasn’t strong enough to use the killing intent of the five elements and Eight Trigrams. So, he thought of a way, using the advantage of being a spirit to merge his entire spirit into it. This way, not only did he successfully form the killing intent of the five elements and Eight Trigrams, but he also created a living Dragon!

“You can actually transform into a flood Dragon? Could this be your true form?” The brain-eating insect was completely shocked. It looked at the five elements and Eight Trigrams flood Dragons circling back and forth in the sky with great fear. In the entire world of spirit beasts, the dragon clan had always been synonymous with power and invincibility. Even the flood Dragons were the same. Although the brain-eating insect was naturally gifted, it could not help but feel fear in the face of the dragon clan. This was an instinct, a tremble that came from the depths of the soul. No matter how hard it tried to suppress it, it could not be suppressed.

“Can you make a guess?” The Dragon suddenly spoke-it was Lin Yi’s voice.

“That’s not right. You clearly have the scent of a pure human on you. It’s impossible for you to be a spirit beast. Could it be that you actually have the ability to transform into a flood Dragon? or is this your second form?” The brain-eating insect’s eyes rolled.
