C673 Talisman of Protection
C673 Talisman of Protection
Just as Wu Chen was about to fall into despair, a loud shout came from his body all of a sudden.
"This is?"
The sudden shout stunned Wu Chen and the Nether Lotus. Then, they saw a golden figure appear in his body.
"So it's this old man."
Staring at the figure, Wu Chen looked at it. It was Taoist Tianchi.
Before this, Taoist Tianchi had given him a talisman called the Life Protector. When his body was corroded by the external force, if he couldn't resist it, the power would explode out.
"Old man, why didn't you come out earlier?"
Seeing this old man, Wu Chen heaved a huge sigh of relief. Although this old man came out late, he still came out. If he didn't come out soon, his life would be in danger.
The Nether Lotus stared at this old man who had suddenly appeared and was stunned. Obviously, it didn't expect that such a change would occur at this critical moment.
However, it wasn't afraid at all. It had even suffered a backlash from someone like Xuan Mo, let alone a mere figure.
Without saying another word, it immediately gathered all of its strength and crazily rushed out towards the figure.
When it saw the attack of the Nether Lotus, Taoist Tianchi's image also burst out with a brilliant light. Golden energy kept bursting out, blocking the flames of the Nether Lotus.
Taoist Tianchi was expert at Legendary Stage, and he was extremely powerful. The Life Protector that he had created... The power of the ___ was also incomparably powerful. It contained nearly one-tenth of True Body's power. Even a Ninth Empyrean of Dragon Transformation Stage warrior wouldn't dare to fight him.
Seeing Taoist Tianchi's image blocking the Nether Lotus, Wu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. It was a close call just now. He was almost finished.
"You guys take your time. I'll take a rest first."
Before this, before this, Wu Chen had used up too much of his energy and needed to replenish it. Therefore, he immediately circulated the Fire Phoenix Formula and began absorbing the surrounding Universal Spiritual Qi to recover his energy. He wanted to fight again.
Just like that, the image of the Nether Lotus and Taoist Tianchi was centered around Wu Chen's body. An intense battle began. Both of their strengths were very powerful. The battle was also very exciting. Unfortunately, this battle was happening in Wu Chen's body. No one except Wu Chen could sense it.
After an unknown period of time, Wu Chen's strength recovered slightly. He circulated the Di Shui Jing and launched a massive counterattack.
"This time, if I can't deal with you, my surname won't be Wu."
Wu Chen's heart was filled with ruthlessness. Not only did he circulate the Di Shui Jing, he also circulated the Fire Phoenix Formula, combining water and fire together. Together with Taoist Tianchi's image, he was going to deal with the Nether Lotus. He had to suppress it.
Under the joint effect of Wu Chen and Taoist Tianchi's image, the Nether Lotus could no longer resist and began showing signs of losing.
"Nether Lotus, you have such a day as well. Weren't you very arrogant just now?"
Wu Chen smiled coldly. Without saying another word, he circulated his energy and suppressed the ___.
Very quickly, the Nether Lotus could no longer hold on and began to collapse. It kept retreating, unable to resist these two energies.
Seeing that he couldn't defeat the two of them, the Nether Lotus was a cunning old fox. Without any hesitation, it turned around and fled.
Now, it had already come out of the Ghost Blood Ridge and had arrived in the outside world. There was no longer any power that could restrain it. Naturally, it could do whatever it wanted.
As a Hellfire, the Nether Lotus didn't have to possess its body. It could live in flames. Furthermore, even if it wanted to possess its body and live in a human form... It could also use the body of another person to survive. It didn't necessarily have to possess Wu Chen.
"Do you want to escape? Have you asked me if I agree?"
This fellow was trying to invade his body. If he allowed the other party to escape, wouldn't Wu Chen's previous suffering be in vain? Naturally, he wouldn't allow it to do as it wished.
Without saying another word, he immediately sealed his entire body, forming a completely sealed condition. He blocked the Nether Lotus inside, not giving the other party a chance to escape.
Seeing that his path had been blocked, the Nether Lotus flew into a rage. It gathered its strength and wanted to fight to the end with Wu Chen.
However, at this moment, Wu Chen was no longer fighting alone. He still had Taoist Tianchi's image to assist him. Naturally, he was not afraid anymore.
Very quickly, the Nether Lotus's energy was suppressed. It could no longer stir up any waves.
"Are you going to have this day as well?"
Wu Chen looked at the Nether Lotus coldly, and his eyes didn't contain the slightest bit of emotion. This guy, he had to refine it for sure. When he was still in his previous life... He wanted the Nether Lotus, but he had never seen it before. He had never heard of such a thing existing anywhere. Now... Now that he finally saw the Nether Lotus, he naturally wouldn't let it go.
Right at this moment, the light of Taoist Tianchi's image suddenly dimmed, and the golden light quickly faded away.
Seeing this, Wu Chen knew that this was a sign that his energy was depleted and was about to be damaged.
The Life Protector's energy was limited. Once it exceeded a certain limit, it would automatically be destroyed, turning into ashes and disappearing into thin air.
"Ka!"
Very quickly, a dull sound echoed out from Wu Chen's body. He saw a crack appearing on the Life Protector.
Wu Chen sighed. He understood that this Life Protector could no longer hold on. It would soon be completely destroyed.
"Crack crack."
The crack quickly expanded and soon covered the entire Life Protector's body. The light had also completely dimmed down.
A moment later, with a 'bang' sound, the Life Protector that Taoist Tianchi gave him completely collapsed and turned into nothingness.
"Thank you, old man."
Wu Chen was very grateful to Taoist Tianchi. If it wasn't for the Life Protector that he had given him, he would have been devoured by the Nether Lotus by now, and there would no longer be a person like him in this world.
Immediately, Wu Chen looked at the Nether Lotus. Although the Life Protector had been destroyed, the overall situation had already been decided. The Nether Lotus could no longer stir up any waves. He could completely refine it now.
"Refine it for me."
Circulating the Di Shui Jing, a powerful force rushed out and pressed down on the Nether Lotus.
Refine the Nether Lotus was not something that could be done overnight. Wu Chen's current cultivation base... He was only at the Eighth Empyrean of True Martial Stage, so he couldn't be compared to Xuan Mo. Even though he had the Di Shui Jing, a magical technique that could suppress the Nether Lotus, he still couldn't do anything about it. It wasn't something that could be done in a day or two.
