Chapter 660 - 665: Fierce Battle with Lin Tong (2)
Chapter 660: Chapter 665: Fierce Battle with Lin Tong (2)
Lin Tong’s fingers were fast, but Ling Chen’s steel saber wasn’t slow either.
If Lin Tong didn’t withdraw his hand, even if he managed to hit Ling Chen’s body, his own arm would be ruined. A high-ranked martial artist of the Earthly List would certainly not risk his body carelessly.
As expected!
Seeing the steel saber chop down, Lin Tong immediately pulled back his fingers and stepped back, increasing the distance between the two.
However, Ling Chen did not let go of such a good opportunity. As Lin Tong retreated, he strode forward, lifting the steel saber high above his head and slashing down towards Lin Tong’s crown.
Feeling the strong gust of wind coming towards him, Lin Tong took another step backward.
Yet, what Lin Tong overlooked was a very important point. Ling Chen’s strength had already reached the stage where Inner Strength could be projected outward. Even with a gap as narrow as the width of a finger, the concentrated Qi Force could still inflict injury on Lin Tong’s body.
Hiss!
Suddenly, Lin Tong’s chest was riven by a sharp Qi Force, leaving a ten-centimeter-long rip in his clothes with a red mark clearly visible on his skin.
Unfortunately, Ling Chen’s Power was still a little lacking; otherwise, even if the blow wouldn’t take Lin Tong’s life, it could have severely wounded him.
Seeing the torn cloth on his chest, Lin Tong’s face immediately revealed a cold and harsh expression, his eyes bursting with a chilling coldness and a surging intent to kill.
"Good! You do have some skills. It looks like I need to take this seriously."
With these words, Lin Tong tapped the ground with one foot and leaped high from his position, swooping down like a great roc spreading its wings, his index finger aiming straight for Ling Chen’s brow.
The same move again!
Ling Chen flicked his wrist, and the sharp edge of the saber swiftly cut through the air, targeting Lin Tong’s arm. He realized Lin Tong’s deadliest technique was nothing but his ten fingers. As long as he could restrict those fingers, he would prevent Lin Tong from getting close. The rest... he could only hope Du Kang would prevail.
First, he needed to hold Lin Tong at bay. As long as Du Kang defeated Ji Gang and returned to reinforce him, all difficulties could be smoothly resolved. However, what Ling Chen currently worried about was whether Du Kang could win at all.
In the midst of his contemplation, Lin Tong’s figure had already closed in. Ling Chen did not back down, brandishing his steel saber and bringing it down with a fierce wind.
However, just then, Lin Tong suddenly changed his tactic, lightly tapping the blade with his index finger. In a flash, Ling Chen felt a powerful force strike the saber, causing his wrist to uncontrolledly deviate to the side, narrowly missing Lin Tong’s body.
This move from Lin Tong took Ling Chen by surprise; he had not expected the other’s fingers to contain such formidable strength.
At this moment, there was no time for further thought. Lin Tong’s fingers kept tapping the blade, the force transmitting through the saber into Ling Chen’s wrist, making his whole arm feel numb.
Seeing this, Ling Chen decided to let go of the saber with his right hand. As he made this movement, he also twisted his waist. Before the steel saber hit the ground, his left hand had already caught the hilt, and following the rotation of his waist, the saber swung like a giant windmill, viciously aiming for Lin Tong’s neck.
If this strike landed, Lin Tong’s head would surely be severed from his body.
Confronted by Lin Tong’s formidable strength, Ling Chen did not hold back at all, exerting his full strength, with all his Power converging on his left arm.
Just when the blade of the steel saber was less than two centimeters from Lin Tong’s neck, the blade suddenly came to a halt.
Ling Chen looked intently, his face instantly turning pale.
Ling Chen could only stare in disbelief as Lin Tong’s fingers actually managed to grip the blade of the sword.
This... Ling Chen’s face was filled with disbelief as he gazed at Lin Tong’s two fingers.
This is way too freakish!
He could actually use two fingers to block his steel sword; were these even human fingers? Though Lin Tong was an Earthly List master, his strength was only at the bottom among those ranked on the Earthly List, and the gap between them wasn’t this terrifying.
At that moment, Ling Chen finally understood why the porridge girl had warned him to be wary of his fingers. This fellow’s ten fingers must have undergone many years of arduous training to possess such formidable strength.
While contemplating, Lin Tong flicked his fingers, instantly causing Ling Chen’s arm to be stretched out, and his body involuntarily pulled towards Lin Tong. Being dragged by that force, Ling Chen had no choice but to let go of his steel sword and jump back to avoid being hit by Lin Tong’s fingers.
However, having lost his steel sword, Ling Chen’s position undoubtedly became more perilous.
Hmph!
Lin Tong sneered, casually tossing the steel sword behind him, and then began walking toward Ling Chen.
Facing Ling Chen, who was now without his steel sword, Lin Tong didn’t seem the least bit cautious, moving with a light step, completely undeterred by Ling Chen’s presence.
As Lin Tong kept advancing step by step, Ling Chen had no choice but to retreat, quickly considering his options.
"Ling Chen!" noveldrama
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out. Ling Chen turned to look and saw Yi Shuiyan, who had somehow risen from the ground, picked up his steel sword, and swung it down.
However, Yi Shuiyan’s attack was not aimed at Ling Chen, but at the porridge girl, who was under Wei Bo’s control.
Seeing the sharp blade about to fall on porridge girl’s body, Ling Chen’s expression changed drastically, he promptly shouted, "Don’t!" As he spoke, he lightly tapped his toes on the ground, instantly accelerating to his maximum speed, and charged towards where porridge girl was.
But before Ling Chen could run a few meters, a powerful force suddenly struck.
Feeling the fierce wind of the attack, Ling Chen turned his gaze just in time to see Lin Tong quickly close the distance, step behind him in a few strides, and jabbed his finger, hitting the middle of his back.
In a split second, Ling Chen felt all his strength drain away, a painful sensation wracked his spine, feeling as though it couldn’t support his body, and he collapsed to the ground with a ’bang’, unable to get up.
"You... you attacked me by surprise!"
Ling Chen clenched his jaw and gasped for air, struggling to prop himself up with his hands, attempting to stand again. However, each movement brought intense pain to his spine, as if it had snapped in half.
Not only that, but a numbing sensation began to spread over his entire body, even his hands and feet began to disobey him.
Seeing Ling Chen unable to rise from the ground, his face pale, Yi Shuiyan immediately withdrew his steel sword.
"Ling Chen!"
The porridge girl anxiously looked at Ling Chen, her beautiful eyes filled with concern. If her arms and legs hadn’t been tied up, she would have rushed to his aid immediately.
Hearing the porridge girl’s voice, Ling Chen opened his mouth to respond, but as the words reached his lips, he realized that the numbing sensation also affected his mouth, and he couldn’t utter a single word.
"Ling Chen, how does it feel? Is it not very comfortable?" Lin Tong played with his fingers, lifting the corners of his mouth with a smile: "I forgot to tell you, the technique I’ve cultivated is called Five Poison Finger, which requires me to immerse my fingers in poison constantly over the years. Eventually, the poison permeates the blood and becomes one with it. Whenever I wish, I can transfer the poison from my fingers into anyone’s body."
