The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3530 Holy crap, they can even combine?
Lin Chen frowned.

The jade slip does indeed describe the process of entering a mountain passage, then venturing into the mountain's interior, where they encounter monsters blocking their path. They join forces to defeat these monsters and continue forward.

Lin Chen and the others walked along the passage without any forks, and they arrived here in the same way.

Could this be the location of the monster blocking the road mentioned in the jade slip?
Not quite like it.

There is no trace of any demonic beasts here.

As Lin Chen was wondering, there was a sudden commotion in the cave.

Sparkling crystals fell from the sky and scattered on the ground inside the cave, but the quiet ground suddenly stirred as earthen figures made of rock and soil emerged from the ground.

Each native corresponds to a dazzling crystal, which is then inserted directly into the native's head, causing the native to emanate a powerful aura.

Lin Chen and the others felt a chill run down their spines as they watched this scene.

Inside this enormous cave, countless natives surrounded them. Was it necessary to kill all the natives to pass through?
As the natives appeared, a portal of light, seemingly illusory, suddenly appeared on the distant stone wall. In front of the portal was a magical artifact protected by a barrier. The artifact resembled a container with an opening, like a funnel.

The light on the gate was not strong, appearing and disappearing intermittently, indicating that the gate was not fully activated.

The portal doesn't appear out of nowhere; the answer is yes, this is the path to departure.

To leave this place, you need to activate the portal. So the question is, what can activate the portal?

Lin Chen's eyes fell on the peculiar device. He looked at the not-so-large opening, then at the increasingly powerful aura of the earth people in front of him, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him.

"Crystal!"

Lin Chen said excitedly, "We need to kill the natives, seize the crystals in their heads, put the crystals into that magic weapon, activate the portal, and then we can leave through the portal."

Ning Hesheng had obviously thought of this as well, and added, "Judging from the size of the device, it should require more than one crystal. In addition, the activation of the light gate for teleportation consumes energy, so the crystals that were previously placed may be rendered unusable and need to be replaced."

"We need to kill as many natives as possible and seize the crystals; otherwise, once those in front are gone, it will become increasingly difficult for those behind to kill more natives."

In the short time it took to speak, the natives had come to life, charging towards the group with a powerful aura.

The crowd unleashed their magical weapons and launched an attack on the natives.

Logically speaking, since everyone here is a quasi-saint, a full-force attack would be enough to tear apart the land and shatter the sky. Wouldn't it be easy to kill a few people made of mud?

The reality was cruel: although their attacks were powerful, when they landed on the natives, the natives suffered nothing but getting covered in mud.

Even if half of its body is blasted off in the first impact, it will instantly recover as the soil swirls around it.

"Brain!"

Lin Chen shouted, "Bomb their heads! The crystal should be inside their heads!"

There was clearly a barrier or seal inside the cave. With everyone attacking with such full force, outside, mountains and rivers would probably be shattered and land torn apart, but inside the cave, apart from some large pits on the ground, there was nothing else.

Lin Chen summoned the Exquisite Pagoda, which grew larger and, carrying immense power, crashed into the charging earth people.

Lin Chen's strength was already at the peak of Quasi-Saint, and he had also absorbed the Wood Attribute Great Dao Spirit. Ning Hesheng and Sun Yixiao had also completed the initial absorption of the Great Dao Spirit in the previous period, and their strength had been further improved.

"boom!"

The bodies of the several natives were instantly smashed to pieces.

The Linglong Pagoda is unparalleled in defense, but when it crashes into someone, its power is equally unstoppable.

Lin Chen finished off the remaining enemies from behind, his targets all being the heads of the natives. One by one, the native heads exploded, and crystals flew out, which Lin Chen caught in mid-air and manipulated to throw them towards the magical artifact device opening in front of the portal.

"Ding!"

A crystal flew into the mouth, slid directly into the tube, and fell into the magic artifact. The artifact shone brightly, and the previously illusory light gate instantly became brighter.

Keep throwing!
Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng were both top-tier fighters. In this training ground designed for adventurers below the Saint level, they felt some pressure, but not much.

Even Sun Yixiao and his clone Lin Chen were safe and sound thanks to the combined efforts of Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng.

One crystal after another was thrown into the magic weapon, and the light above the gate shone brightly. Finally, the light merged into one, completely covering the entire gate.

Above the gate, golden light rippled like water.

Portal activated.

"You go."

Without a word, Lin Chen's clone took flight and, through the path he had created, entered the portal of light and vanished instantly.

The golden light on the portal dimmed instantly, returning to its previous dim appearance. Clearly, this teleportation had exhausted its energy.

Lin Chen's expression remained calm: "Ten. Activate once. We need thirty more. Let's keep killing!"

The natives couldn't stop Lin Chen and his group's slaughter. One crystal after another fell into Lin Chen's hands, but this time, Lin Chen didn't rush to activate the light gate.

He needs to collect thirty of them before starting the machine continuously; otherwise, the people following behind will be in great danger.

They seem to be doing well working together, but if one person is facing an overwhelming horde of natives, it won't be so easy.

Once you get entangled, you might not be able to leave and could be worn down to death here.

Soon, all thirty were collected.

Lin Chen placed the crystals into it one by one, and the light gate lit up again.

"Old Sun, let's go."

Without any hesitation or excuse, Sun Yixiao turned around and left, passing through the portal and exiting the cave.

The clone that left earlier did not disconnect from the sensor, which means that the clone left safely, so this way out is safe.

At that moment, the local people in the cave suddenly changed.

They seemed to realize that they couldn't defeat Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng this way. All the natives instantly huddled together, merging into a gigantic native that exuded a terrifying aura that made people's hearts tremble.

Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng both changed color.

Holy crap, they can even combine?
During the time it took for these natives to combine, the ten crystals were placed back into the magical device, and the portal opened again.

Ning Hesheng said without hesitation, "Give me the gem, you go first."

As a servant whose life was in his hands, Ning Hesheng was very aware of his situation and took the initiative to stay behind to intercept them, preparing to leave one last time.

Lin Chen manipulated the exquisite tower to smash towards the charging giant earthen man, while shouting, "Are you as good as me? Stop talking nonsense, go first, I'll cover your retreat."
