Novel Full Chapter 1739: This Is Just for Self-Defense
An Lin was shocked upon seeing this.
Why was there an egg floating on his sea of vital energy?
How had another strange thing ended up in there?
An Lin turned his attention toward the egg on the sea of vital energy.
The egg was about the same height as An Kirin. It had an extremely smooth and pristine white surface. However, upon closer inspection, one could see that there were intricate golden patterns very faintly visible upon the surface of the egg.
“What is this egg, and why is it in my sea of vital energy?” An Lin was perplexed.
Could this be related to the White Tiger somehow?
After all, the egg had only appeared after he had swallowed the White Tiger.
Wait, if he obtained this egg after swallowing the White Tiger, then why was there no egg when he swallowed the Vermilion Bird?
An Lin could sense that there was a peculiar life form incubating within that egg. In order not to repeat the tragedy of their fourth brother, who was cooked by Yao Xiu, he immediately commanded An Kirin, the Holy Flame Vermilion Bird, and the little whale to get far away from the egg and prohibited them from hurting it.
He heaved a faint sigh of relief after taking care of matters there before turning his attention to the Spirit Patriarch Palace. The Spirit Maiden wore a suicidal expression on her face and had fallen into severe self-doubt following the heavy blows An Lin had inflicted upon her.
“Spirit Maiden, there are still two trials left. Let’s continue,” An Lin suggested.
The Spirit Maiden shuddered, and she turned toward An Lin with shock and horror in her eyes. “You… you want to continue?”
“Don’t you want to kill me? I’m giving you more opportunities to do so!” An Lin smiled.
The Spirit Maiden felt like a sword had been stabbed into her heart, and her chest rose and fell as she clasped a hand over it. “No, I don’t want to kill you anymore. I’m afraid of you now. If things continue like this, you’re going to take the whole Spirit Patriarch Palace apart! I beg of you, please just get out of here!”
An Lin chuckled coldly. “I go wherever I want, and no one has the right to impede me! If you don’t like that, then come kill me!”
The veins on the Spirit Maiden’s forehead bulged, but she couldn’t do anything.
She had never hated anyone as much as she did now.
A peculiar feeling of being conquered welled up in her heart, making her entire body tremble.
“You can continue, but you have to promise me not to absorb any more soul power essence or Holy Beast divine intent, is that alright?” the Spirit Maiden implored.
“Nope!” An Lin rejected in a firm voice.
“You!” The Spirit Maiden’s eyes widened. “You’re going too far!”
“Am I? Well, why don’t you come and kill me then!” An Lin laughed.
The Spirit Maiden finally broke down in tears. What an unreasonable man!
An Lin ignored her and made his way out of the White Tiger trial space before arriving at the Xuan Wu trial gate where he yelled in a loud voice, “I want to challenge the Xuan Wu trial! Open the gate!”
“No… You can’t do this… You’re a horrible man…” The Spirit Maiden shook her head to reject An Lin’s request, but her body moved of its own accord.
That’s right, she had no right to prevent a trial-taker from undertaking a trial. That was the equivalent of betraying the Spirit Patriarch, and it was something she absolutely could not do.
“I really want to kill you!” the Spirit Maiden spat through gritted teeth.
An Lin naturally had no patience for a psychopath artifact spirit who was always thinking about killing him. “Shut the f*ck up! If you want to kill me, then open the gate and show me what you’ve got!”
The Spirit Maiden pursed her lips and waved a hand to open the Xuan Wu trial.
Rumble…
The Xuan Wu trial that had already slain two Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures was activated.
An Lin strode into the trial with a fearless expression.
“Hahaha… Die die die! I’m going to kill you right here, right now!” A crazed expression appeared on the Spirit Maiden’s face.
A boundless crushing force came crashing down.
An Lin’s body shuddered violently, and his bones creaked as boundless gravitational force pressed down upon him.
If an ordinary Return to Void Stage mighty figure were here, they would definitely have been crushed into mincemeat in an instant. Even Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures like the Dark Soul Emperor and the Bright Soul Snake were temporarily immobilized by this crushing force. However, this was only the beginning. The indestructible Xuan Wu shells began to fall from the sky at this moment!
“I’m going to crush you!”
The Xuan Wu shells were covered in sharp divine spikes, and they crashed down from above with the weight to crush and flatten all things.
“Interesting…” An Lin smiled as an earthy yellow divine halo appeared above his head.
Whoosh…
A burst of paramount might began to proliferate forth.
Power of mountains, activate!
An Lin pointed a finger into the air, and the paramount power of laws erupted forth.
“Return to normal gravity!”
Peculiar ripples imbued with the power of paramount laws surged through the air, as if a heavenly decree were being delivered.
The terrifying gravitational force instantly disappeared.
The Spirit Maiden’s insane expression froze on her face, and her mouth gaped open. “This again! What kind of power is this? What kind of freak is this man…”
The Spirit Maiden could already envision what was going to happen next.
Sure enough, An Lin launched a fist into the sky, and the terrifying power of mountains imbued with the will to destroy all things instantly shattered the soul power Xuan Wu shell.
However, there was more than just one Xuan Wu shell in the Xuan Wu trial.
The Spirit Maiden waved her hands frantically through the air to send one Xuan Wu shell after another crashing down upon An Lin, each of which was smashed by An Lin with a single punch with no exception! The Xuan Wu shells that were indestructible to Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures were like papier mache structures to An Lin.
The Spirit Maiden experienced what true despair was once again.
At this moment, the mountain divine halo was absorbing the soul power essence in the trial space again.
An Lin’s soul power energy increased drastically again, and part of it flowed into his sea of vital energy to nurture that strange egg.
Soon, all of the Xuan Wu shells had been pulverized and absorbed by An Lin.
The Xuan Wu trial space was completely empty.
“How disappointing, Spirit Maiden, you failed again. But that’s alright, you still have one more chance.” An Lin spoke with a buoyant smile, “However, before that, it’s time to give me my Xuan Wu inheritance.”
The Spirit Maiden gritted her teeth. “Before I activate the Xuan Wu inheritance, can you explain to me why you’ve already summoned your whale?”
“Haha…” An Lin looked at the soul power black whale behind him with its massive mouth open, and he gave a slightly awkward smile. “I’m worried that Xuan Wu is going to attack me like the other two Holy Beasts, so I’ve summoned the whale for self-defense purposes!”
Self-defense?
F*ck off!
He clearly wanted to swallow Xuan Wu!
The Spirit Maiden’s breathing accelerated, but she still calmed herself down and forced a smile onto her face. “Then promise me that you won’t attack Xuan Wu unless it attacks you first.”
An Lin immediately shook his head upon hearing this. “I can’t do that. Why do I have to wait for the Holy Beasts to attack me before I retaliate? I’ve already been pushed around by two Holy Beasts, and I can’t let the tragedy repeat again. Attack is the best defense, and I’m going to take the initiative and attack this time!”
The Spirit Maiden: “???”
