After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 143 Game
Looking at the yellow area that lit up on the array diagram, Lin Zhao took a deep breath, counted how many pills he had left, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. If you don't succeed this time, don't put too much pressure on yourself," Grandma Honghu advised.

Lin Zhao looked at the people in front of him: "The pressure on me is nothing, it's just that if I'm careless, they'll be gone."

Su Bai suddenly turned around and asked, "Sister Zhao Zhao, according to the formation diagram, who is the first enemy Yuan Yang Hui Golden Core cultivator we're facing?"

Lin Zhao said, "It should be Qingze from the Azure Phoenix Continent."

Su Bai looked at the people standing not far away and said with a wry smile, "It seems they've changed their formation."

Lin Zhao was startled, stepped aside from Su Bai, and looked up to see a beautiful figure standing there, seemingly having waited for a long time.

Lan Yingying...

I actually ran into her on the very first level?

Something flashed through Lin Zhao's mind in a flash, and she instantly realized something: "That guy must have placed a spiritual seal on the array flag!"

Seeing the spear in Lan Yingying's hand, Lin Zhao was briefly stunned but quickly calmed down. She looked around, thought for a moment, and said, "Captain Ning, please hold Lan Yingying back. I need some time to calculate how to temporarily change the formation."

Lei Yuanzi instinctively wanted to say something nonsensical, but when he met Lin Zhao's cold gaze, he suddenly couldn't say a word.

"Please continue to your designated positions as I previously instructed," Lin Zhao said.

"Aren't we going to change the formation?" Lei Yuanzi asked.

Lin Zhao nodded: "But the initiative to change the formation is not in our hands; it depends on what formation the other side is using now."

"We're going to hold off the Yuan Yang Hui Golden Core cultivator on the other side, what are you going to do?" Qu Shu frowned, staring into Lin Zhao's eyes, and asked.

Lin Zhao gripped the array diagram in his hand tightly. "I'm going to confront the allied array masters. I think they're waiting for me too."

This battle was less a life-or-death struggle between the two sides and more a contest between her and the opposing spirit talisman master.

"The enemy's formation master? That's Jiang Yan, isn't it? Captain Lin, you'll only have a slim chance of survival if you face him!"

Lei Yuanzi subconsciously looked at Su Bai, but Su Bai kept his head down, making it impossible for him to discern Su Bai's emotions.

Lin Zhao smiled slightly: "Don't be so pessimistic. At least if I can't beat them, I can still run away. I'll trouble you to complete the other core array eyes."

As the others gradually headed to their designated positions on the array, Lin Zhao looked at Su Bai, who had not yet left.

"Little Bai, I'm entrusting Mo Zun to you. His spiritual foundation is no weaker than yours, so be careful."

Su Bai looked up, and Lin Zhao met the boy's reddened eyes, and was momentarily stunned.

Su Bai's voice suddenly choked up, almost crying, "Sister Zhao Zhao, I'm a level five spirit talisman master, can I go and fight Jiang Yan?"

Lin Zhao wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. "No, I chose this path, so I should take responsibility for it."

Su Bai gritted his teeth, shook off Lin Zhao's hand, and his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Lin Zhao looked at the red area flashing with red light on the array diagram and slowly walked in one direction.

Soon, a white figure appeared in Lin Zhao's line of sight.

The long-haired boy looked at the girl in the blue dress walking towards him, his eyes filled with amazement and complex emotions.

"I thought I would see Su Bai," Jiang Yan said with emotion. "I never expected that it would be you who changed my formation and set up the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation."

Lin Zhao's hand flashed with spiritual seals, his expression cold, and his voice grew increasingly murderous: "I didn't expect you to be so cautious as to place sensing spiritual seals on the array flags as well, changing the array at the last minute. But at this point, you and I both know that your array change is incomplete. I guess it's because Mo Zun's side is unwilling to cooperate?"

Jiang Yan met Lin Zhao's eyes and understood: "Was the previous Zhu Che you were impersonating?"

Otherwise, how could Lin Zhao be so familiar with the relationships between the leaders of these four-way alliances?
Lin Zhao did not deny it; at this point, there was no need to hide anything.

"I never expected that despite all our scheming and maneuvering, we would suffer repeated defeats at your hands." Jiang Yan sighed. "However, your foundation is simply too shallow. Even if your talent is no less than mine, this is all you can go."

Lin Zhao flicked a spiritual seal at Jiang Yan: "Who knows who will win or lose until the very end?"

Jiang Yan shook his head and shattered the spirit seal with his palm: "It's useless to resist stubbornly. Lin Zhao, you are a smart man. It wasn't easy for you to get to this point from Cloud Peak. If you admit defeat now and come back to Vermilion Bird Continent with me, I will spare your life."

Lin Zhao: "..." She was so disgusted that she almost made a mistake when forming her next spiritual seal.

"You mean you want me to be your plaything?" Lin Zhao was probably disgusted and angry, and she laughed in a fit of rage.

Amidst this laughter, Jiang Yan's expression softened slightly.

Just when Jiang Yan thought she had agreed, the girl suddenly appeared in front of him and punched him in the face when he was caught off guard.

"Who do you think you are, humiliating me like this?!"

Lin Zhao summoned the Heavenly Phoenix Sword, and for the first time, she used this long, slender sword as if it were a broadsword, aiming to slash at the heads of the Japanese soldiers.

Jiang Yan was caught off guard by the punch, but he quickly reacted, his spiritual energy surging in his hand, and he knocked Lin Zhao to the ground with a single blow.

Fortunately, Lin Zhao's physical body was strong enough that he withstood the attack and stood up the next instant. With a swift movement, he activated the Heavenly Phoenix Step and turned to run.

Jiang Yan was taken aback, then burst into laughter: "Lin Zhao, I thought you had made some thorough preparations before daring to come before me, but it turns out you just came here to die?"

Lin Zhao ignored his words. Faced with the opponent's foundation of more than fifty spiritual streams, all her methods were just paper tigers.

Jiang Yan clearly understood this principle as well. He condensed a fireball with a half-smile, his eyes revealing the mocking and sarcastic look of a cat catching a mouse.

"I just gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. So don't blame me for taking action against an enemy like you before you've fully grown."

Although their four-way alliance's tactical changes were not thorough, so what?
If Lin Zhao, as the enemy's strategist, is killed by them, then this time the victory will still belong to their four-way alliance!

As his attack landed, Lin Zhao's speed slowed down. This wasn't because she lacked spiritual energy, but because the opponent's attack had indeed injured her.

"Alright, little hedgehog, it's time for you to get going." Jiang Yan raised his hand, spiritual energy gathering in it.
Lin Zhao stood there, panting, looking at the spiritual energy in his hand, and curled her lips into a smile: "You underestimate me too much."

A spirit seal fell to the ground in her hand. When Jiang Yan saw the spirit seal land, he understood that Lin Zhao had not only been dodging, but was also constantly setting up an array.

Even knowing this, he still shook his head mockingly: "Did you think you could turn the tide using the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation you set up before? How foolish. Don't you know I've already changed the formation?"

The spiritual seal used for the core array eye of the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Array could not have been completed in the short time it took to evade.

Jiang Yan laughed and said, "You don't need to use such tricks in front of me."

A strange glint flashed in Lin Zhao's eyes: "Then why don't you try attacking me with your spiritual energy now?"

Would Jiang Yan be intimidated by her?

With a wave of his hand, he unleashed the spiritual energy that had gathered earlier.

The spirit flow transformed into the shape of a dragon and rushed towards Lin Zhao.

The moment it reached Lin Zhao, it seemed as if thousands of fragments condensed in front of Lin Zhao. The dragon crashed into those fragments, melting into them in wisps. The next moment, an even stronger spiritual current erupted from the fragments, counterattacking towards Jiang Yan.

As Jiang Yan watched in shock, Lin Zhao's voice rang out.

"I have to thank you for your last-minute change of formation."

Lin Zhao said, "As a spirit talisman master, you also understand that modifying half of the formation will result in a split and backlash."

Jiang Yan finally managed to neutralize the spiritual energy he had unleashed, and his gaze towards Lin Zhao was filled with uncertainty.

He had already guessed what was going on, but he couldn't believe that Lin Zhao would actually abandon her own plans.

"Therefore, the core spiritual seal I placed was merely a reversal formation based on the array flags set up by my people and the formation you modified. It did not complete the Qiankun Forbidden Yuan Formation that I was supposed to set up. Jiang Yan, you people who formed an alliance with the four sides, taste the bitterness of playing with fire and getting burned."

Jiang Yan took a few steps back, realizing that his side was doomed to lose in this formation. Without hesitation, he cast a teleportation talisman on himself and disappeared from this world.

Lin Zhao watched Jiang Yan disappear, breathed a sigh of relief, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell heavily to the ground.

Having withstood the attacks of fifty cultivators with profound spiritual energy, her injuries were far more severe than she had imagined.

Therefore, Jiang Yan's previous thoughts were not without reason, but he did not expect Lin Zhao to be so resilient and to be able to respond so quickly.

Lin Zhao opened the scroll and saw the spiritual light illuminating all three colored areas. Knowing that the disciples of the four-way alliance should have all evacuated under Jiang Yan's orders, he breathed a sigh of relief and then completely disappeared into darkness.

I'm sorry, my tooth really hurts. I'll update a lot more once my toothache is gone.
