Chapter 210: Vanquishing the God and Demonstrating Power
Bei Wu's katana, swinging in mid-air, suddenly paused for a few seconds, and during this brief gap, Lin Chen deftly dodged Bei Wu's katana, reached out, and directly grabbed his neck.
"Crack!" accompanied by the crisp sound, Bei Wu's body fell to the ground.
The hall was deadly silent. Tian Zhong stared blankly at Bei Wu, who was lying on the ground, unable to accept the reality before him.
It was known Bei Wu was a master at the Golden Core Stage; how could he possibly die in Lin Chen's hands in a single round?
"Impossible, impossible, this must be an illusion!"
Standing nearby, Assassin was also dumbstruck by the scene.
It was known that Bei Wu was immensely powerful, one of the top figures in Huaxia, and yet, he had just died in an instant under Lin Chen's hand.
"Damn it, this guy is tricky!" An old man behind Tian Zhong stared at Lin Chen with a cold gaze, his eyes revealing a strange expression.
He had seen clearly the fight between Bei Wu and Lin Chen. Bei Wu had suddenly paused in the air for a few seconds, and for masters in combat, a few seconds of distraction could be fatal.
Bei Wu was battle-hardened; how could he make such a rookie mistake.
The old man was right. During their fight, Lin Chen had activated Tianyan's God-destroying Eye. Though Lin Chen and Bei Wu were evenly matched and it was difficult to kill the opponent, he could still cause a brief distraction, which, for Lin Chen, who was already at the Golden Core strength, was enough.
"All of you, attack together, kill him!" The old man's eyes were filled with murderous intent as he shouted.
Lin Chen was growing too fast. According to intelligence from a few months ago, he was only at the Qi Refinement level, but in just a short time, he had become a Golden Core powerhouse. If allowed to develop further, he would undoubtedly become a disaster for the organization.
Eight black-clad strongmen behind the old man leaped out, rushing directly towards Lin Chen.
Each of the eight black-clad strongmen possessed Foundation Establishment strength, and their collective attack was overwhelming, making even a Golden Core powerhouse need to avoid their edge.
Lin Chen's gaze chilled, golden light flickering in his eyes as he locked on to the man running at the forefront.
"Die!"
The golden light from his eyes flashed, and a beam of gold shot out, piercing the young man's forehead.
The black-clad man's complexion changed, and his body suddenly shuddered, freezing in place like a piece of wood.
By the time he regained his senses, Lin Chen's hand was already on his neck.
"Crack!" With a crisp sound, another Foundation Establishment expert fell.
The corpse collapsed, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
"How is this possible!" The remaining black-clad strongmen were utterly stunned, completely dumbfounded.
Why did that guy seem to lose his senses, letting Lin Chen slaughter him?
Lin Chen's gaze was ice-cold as he stared at the remaining seven black-clad strongmen, his chilling intent falling upon them.
The seven assassins trembled, the cold murderous aura emanating from Lin Chen causing a chill in their hearts.
After killing the black-clad man, Lin Chen's body flashed, ghost-like, appearing behind another black-clad man.
"Crack!"
Yet another crisp sound as that man's neck broke, his body falling to the ground.
Lin Chen was like a god of death, claiming the life of a black-clad man with each strike.
In just moments, all eight Foundation Establishment strongmen had successively fallen.
The entire hall was deathly silent, everyone was horrified by the scene.
If this were to spread, it would shock the entire Capital City.
After dealing with the eight Foundation Establishment strongmen, Lin Chen turned his gaze and focused on Tian Zhong.
Tian Zhong was completely panicked; he took two steps back and said to the old man, "Gui Wu, quickly, stop him."
Just moments ago, Gui Wu had planned to join forces with eight Foundation Establishment experts to kill Lin Chen, but after witnessing Lin Chen's eerie techniques, he had already lost the will to fight.
The eight Foundation Establishment experts, as if cursed, stood motionless, allowing Lin Chen to slay them; this was too bizarre.
Lin Chen took steps toward Gui Wu, his expression incredibly stern.
"Mr. Lin, please spare us, we will leave Huaxia immediately."
Feeling Lin Chen's oppressive aura, Gui Wu kept retreating, his face filled with terror, begging Lin Chen for mercy.
"Thinking of leaving now? Don't you think it's a bit late?" A hint of coldness appeared on Lin Chen's lips.
At that moment, Gui Wu suddenly produced a sharp dagger in his hand, planning to launch a surprise attack while Lin Chen was unprepared.
Whoosh!
A streak of cold light flashed, and the dagger in Gui Wu's hand, like a venomous snake, aimed directly at Lin Chen's throat.
Gui Wu, possessing the strength of the late Golden Core stage, was confident enough in his ability to eliminate a peer at such close range.
"I've long known you Island Nation bastards never change!" Lin Chen's eyes hardened.
"God Annihilating Light!" As Lin Chen's eyes hardened, a beam of golden light burst forth, controlled by his mind, shooting like lightning into Gui Wu's brow.
Buzz!
While advancing, Gui Wu's mind trembled as if struck by lightning, immediately feeling an excruciating pain in his head; he halted in front of Lin Chen, his eyes filled with panic.
"Die!" Seizing the moment when Gui Wu was dazed, Lin Chen's figure flickered and he easily snatched the dagger from Gui Wu's hand; a flash of cold light, like lightning, struck the bewildered Gui Wu.
"What's going on? Why isn't he moving?"
The crowd in the hall was stunned; the scene was too eerie, as anyone who dealt with Lin Chen would suddenly become vacant-eyed and then get killed by him.
The cold light faded, and the next moment, Gui Wu regained his senses, only to feel a stabbing pain and looked down to see a sharp dagger embedded in his heart.
Ah!
A scream sounded, and Gui Wu, with a look of disbelief on his face, stared intently at Lin Chen in front of him, falling face-up to the ground, his eyes still wide open in death.
Watching Gui Wu on the ground, Tian Zhong turned pale and sat down on the floor with a thump.
Eight Foundation Establishment experts and two Golden Core experts had been effortlessly annihilated by Lin Chen; how was this possible!
To think such a force could have easily wiped out a medium-level family in Huaxia, yet they had perished at Lin Chen's hands.
"Impossible, this must be a dream!" At this moment, Tian Zhong still couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Gulp!
Tian Zhong swallowed hard, eyeing Lin Chen who was slowly approaching him, his back drenched with sweat.
He had clashed with Lin Chen twice, each time ending worse than the last.
Now he knew that Lin Chen relied not on luck but was simply not human; he was a monster!
"Lin Chen, I must now admit you are a monster, the most outstanding person I've ever seen. If you join our organization, I guarantee you can enjoy a lifetime of wealth and honor!"
Tian Zhong's eyes blazed as he stared at Lin Chen; having such a person under his command would be a feat enough to cover any past failures.
"Join your organization?" A cold smile crossed Lin Chen's lips.
"Lin Chen, the organization behind us is more powerful than you can imagine; it can realize any of your dreams. The Cultivation Techniques you want, the wealth, the beauties, even helping you become a ruler; none of it is a problem."
Hearing Tian Zhong's generous offer, the crowd was in an uproar; such enticing conditions were irresistible to anyone.
"Is that so? But my dream is to kill all of you bastards who dare to invade our Huaxia—to the last man. Can you also help me realize this dream?" Lin Chen said, his lips curling into a cold, mocking sneer.
