Chapter 2416: Chapter 2417: Devouring

The verdant spiritual energy started flowing over Lin Chen’s body, and he immediately felt a warm current attacking from behind him, spreading into all the limbs and bones in his body.

Lin Chen groaned softly, as the spiritual energy roamed through his body, before moving towards the places where Lin Chen was injured.

The invasion of this spiritual energy caused a slight tingling sensation in Lin Chen’s wounds. Having suffered too many injuries before, Lin Chen was quite familiar with this feeling, which indicated that his body was in a state of recovery.

However, it must be said that while Liu Qinghan’s role in battle was not very formidable, her ability to repair injuries was indeed quite effective.

Lin Chen’s injuries were undeniably severe. Earlier, during the confrontation with Pan Hao, he had already sustained multiple injuries. Although he had managed to recover a little bit, he barely had time to catch his breath before being plunged back into the current situation.

This situation caused Lin Chen’s injuries, which had initially been recovering slightly, to worsen, leading to fractured bones and spilled blood.

If Lin Chen were to rely on self-recovery, it would take at least half a day, but with Liu Qinghan’s healing, his body was recovering at a rapid pace.

Lin Chen felt rather amazed, as it was the first time he had been treated by Liu Qinghan. He felt that the Sect Master in front of him was unfathomably powerful. What he didn’t know was that although Liu Qinghan was enormously helpful in this regard, his combat ability was actually quite weak.

Bang!

A booming sound erupted from a distance, startling Lin Chen.

Although he was thrown out from there, that fat man was now right in the midst of the attack’s center. The fat man stomped heavily on the ground, forcing a depression to form on the ground underneath.

Lin Chen had witnessed that force; it far exceeded anyone he had ever seen! Even Liu Qinghan before him might not be able to withstand such an attack.

And that fat man’s age looked similar to Lin Chen’s; could someone like him really withstand that attack?

Lin Chen couldn’t help but swallow nervously; he felt extremely doubtful.

"Don’t worry, he can handle it. If he can’t manage it, then none of the people here would be competent enough."

Liu Qinghan seemed to have seen through Lin Chen’s thoughts and spoke calmly from behind him, continuously channeling spiritual energy into Lin Chen’s body without stopping.

This statement naturally astonished Lin Chen even more, making him eager to ask questions. However, with Liu Qinghan currently healing Lin Chen, it was clearly inappropriate to ask more now. Lin Chen had no choice but to hold back his curiosity and swallow the questions he was about to blurt out.

He watched the fat man and saw him leap from the ground into the air. Instead of preparing for defense before the palm imprint descended, he lifted his head and dashed upwards.

This scene completely cleared Lin Chen’s doubts and replaced them with utter shock.

Who would have anticipated that a palm imprint, which initially marked Lin Chen’s dire situation, did not seem to cause the fat man any discomfort?

He appeared to be oblivious to such force, surging upwards.

Although his body was plump, it was incredibly agile. The fat man’s toes touched the ground, and after a moment, his body was almost colliding with that attack.

"Seeking death!"

An angry shout roared from the gap in the crescent moon, drawing numerous gazes toward that place.

But the gap there seemed to be slowly closing, and after the hand launched an attack, it gradually faded away.

If the previous gap had been the size of a stone wheel, now it was no larger than a bowl’s mouth, startling everyone’s mind.

This meant that if the palm imprint was dispersed, they would all be safe.

However, the crucial factor lay on the fat man.

Yet, they seemed to have great confidence in the fat man, with no concern and only anticipation as they looked up at the battlefield.

This confidence was quite inexplicable, at least for Lin Chen, who couldn’t understand where their confidence originated. If there had been such a killer move from the fat man earlier, why bother bringing Lin Chen?

This was Lin Chen’s puzzlement.

However, Lin Chen didn’t remain puzzled for long, as moments later, his mouth opened wide, and he wore a look of surprise.

Actually, his astonishment was understandable, given the utterly incredible occurrence happening before him.

Who could have anticipated that the fat man flying from afar now had his mouth wide open and a slightly protruding belly? His originally somewhat bloated body seemed to swell even more with this contraction.

But the moment didn’t last long; in the next moment, the fat man’s slightly protruding stomach contracted abruptly!

As it contracted, his previously wide-open mouth instantly closed into a small opening, and in front of him, a rapid flow surged!

The air flowing in the space above was suspended under such circumstances due to all the breath being consumed by the fat man.

Not only that, but even the attack that had been about to land on the fat man quickly converged towards the center under such conditions.

At this moment, the fat man seemed like a vortex in the ocean, drawing in all the air and attacks.

"This..."

Lin Chen gaped in disbelief; how could such a thing happen, how could someone swallow another’s attack with their mouth.

Yet everything before him constantly reminded Lin Chen that it was indeed happening.

The originally fierce attack unexpectedly concluded with such an event.

This scene left not only Lin Chen in disbelief but even the likeness of Pan Jie in the breach showed signs of disbelief!

Such an assertive attack, albeit not comparable to the top experts of the continent, was beyond what ordinary people could resist. Now, that seemingly powerful attack was effortlessly countered!

How could he not be shocked?

"A gluttonous beast?!"
