I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 985

985 Taking Action, Shocking

Lin Chenxi looked at Chu Yunfan with a pair of determined eyes. From those eyes, one could see the words “you’re lying.”

Chu Yunfan did not know where Lin Chenxi’s confidence in him came from. In fact, she was the one who insisted on saving him. Otherwise, he would not have been able to join the convoy.

Of course, with his strength, even if he was seriously injured, it was impossible for him to die in the belly of a beast. With the strength of the Imperial Physique, even if ordinary monsters crushed their teeth, they would not be able to break his skin.

“No matter what, thank you for your help, Miss Lin. As a token of gratitude, I will help you in any way I can.” Chu Yunfan smiled and did not argue with Lin Chenxi.

!!
“Hmph, hope boastful!”

Nobody knew when, but Lin Haoren had walked over.

In his eyes, Chu Yunfan was just a braggart. There was even a hint of vigilance in his eyes, thinking that Chu Yunfan was using this method to get close to his little sister.

This guy of unknown origin was delusional. His little sister was the daughter of Tianhe’s city lord. Who knew how many suitors she had? Chu Yunfan was a toad chasing a princess.

“I’m telling you, you’d better stay away from her or you’ll regret it,” Lin Haoren warned Chu Yunfan telepathically.

Chu Yunfan wasn’t angry and just smiled faintly.

“Then it’s a deal. That’s great!” Lin Chenxi said excitedly as if she had just received an important promise.

After a short rest, the group resumed their journey. Chu Yunfan was still sitting cross-legged in the carriage and recovering.

After recovering to the Divine Abilities Stage, Chu Yunfan could use the divine power in his body, which made his recovery speed even faster.

The group advanced steadily. Just as they were about to leave the forest, the entire forest suddenly began to shake. The sounds of countless monsters galloping could be heard from the depths of the forest.

Everyone’s expression changed. A monster swarm!

“D*mn it! Why would we encounter a monster swarm at this time?!”

Lin Haoren’s face instantly changed. The most terrifying thing when walking through the mountains and forests was encountering a monster swarm. Once they encountered a swarm, they were basically finished.

Although most of the monsters in the swarm were not very strong, when their numbers reached a certain level, they could drown out everything they saw.

“Get into formation!”

Uncle Lin, the old servant of the Lin family, reacted quickly and shouted.

The guards immediately got into formation because they knew that it was too late to run. The speed at which the swarm spread was usually extremely fast.

Everyone was praying that this was only a small-scale monster swarm and that they would survive it. If it was a large-scale monster swarm, they would probably not be able to escape death.

Not long after the group had got into formation, the first monster appeared in front of them. It tried to charge at the carriage formation, but it was instantly killed by the joint forces of the guards.

However, this was just the beginning. The second, third, fourth… All the way until the overwhelming number of monsters arrived in the blink of an eye.

Apparently, the heavens had not heard their prayers. The swarm was overwhelming. It was clearly not a small swarm. It was at least a medium swarm.

Even if it was a small swarm, they could be completely annihilated, let alone a medium and above one. With their strength, they were almost certain to die.

A brutal fight instantly broke out. These monsters seemed to have encountered some extremely terrifying existence. They ran away frantically and attacked the carriage formation.

The formation formed by these dozens of people was extremely solid, especially Uncle Lin who was at the front. At this time, he finally displayed the powerful strength of a peak Innate. He could kill a monster with a casual attack.

Whether it was a large monster or a small monster, there was no difference in his hands. In a short while, the corpses had piled up like a mountain in front of him.

Even so, he was unable to stop the monsters’ crazy attacks. He had already consumed more than half of his True Energy, but the endless swarm showed no signs of stopping.

Lin Haoren also kept waving his long spear to block the charging monsters, but even so, the entire convoy was still being pushed back.

Finally, one of the guards was swallowed by a monster. The entire line of defense collapsed and was in a mess.

Lin Chenxi emerged from her carriage. She held a sword in her hand and continuously slashed out Innate True Energy. She was young but she had already entered the Innate Stage. She was extremely impressive.

“Protect the Young Master. Young Miss, you have to leave. We’ll hold them back!” Uncle Lin roared and used all his strength to carve out a safe passage, wanting to escort Lin Haoren and Lin Chenxi away first.

The other guards were also trying their best to get closer, but they had no choice. The entire formation was already in a mess.

Lin Haoren knew that this was bad. Just as he was about to send his little sister away, he suddenly spotted Chu Yunfan, who was still sitting cross-legged in the carriage, recuperating. He was not moving, like a clay sculpture.

At this time, a leopard-type monster broke through the defense line. It opened its jaws and pounced on Chu Yunfan, who was in the carriage.

“Watch out!” Lin Chenxi shouted and then rushed in Chu Yunfan’s direction.

‘He’s dead meat!’

Lin Haoren made a judgment in his heart for Chu Yunfan, but in such a chaotic situation, he couldn’t even protect himself, so how could he possibly save Chu Yunfan?

However, what happened next completely shocked Lin Haoren. Just as the leopard-type monster was about to bite Chu Yunfan, he suddenly opened his eyes.

In an instant, it was as if the world had been split open again. His right index and middle fingers came together and casually swept toward the leopard-type monster.

In the next moment, a stream of energy swept out from Chu Yunfan’s finger, and the leopard-type monster let out a blood-curdling scream as it exploded in mid-air.

“Amazing!”

At this time, a hint of horror flashed through Lin Haoren’s eyes. That leopard-type monster was at least at the Innate Stage. Although he could kill it, it was absolutely impossible for him to kill it as easily as Chu Yunfan had.

Could it be that his little sister’s guess was right this time? This weirdo who claimed to be surnamed Chu was actually a super expert?

If that were the case, it would be very awkward. He had treated Chu Yunfan coldly before. However, he didn’t have time to think too much in the chaos.

Chu Yunfan, who had just killed a leopard-type monster, seemed to have completely awakened. He stood up straight, and his figure flickered. After a few leaps, he rushed into the group of monsters, not afraid of being surrounded.
