Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 122 A desperate situation leads to survival

Looking at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear so close at hand, Lin Chen felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. He couldn't care less about anything else at that moment, and immediately unleashed his full mental power, once again using the Mental Sword technique he had used against Ma Xiaotao.

A small blue sword flew out from between Lin Chen's eyebrows and attacked the dark gold dinosaur in front of him.

The moment the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear saw the blue sword, it felt a chill run down its spine, but it couldn't care less about anything else. It slammed its claws towards Lin Chen, its speed increasing even further.

He's willing to risk injury to save his life.

This choice was undoubtedly correct. If the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had switched from attack to defense, whether it could defend against the attack was another matter. This single action would have already caused it to miss the best opportunity to kill Lin Chen. Moreover, Lin Chen's mental attack was not something that the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's tough fur could defend against. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had no mental defense.

Accompanied by a vast amount of spiritual power, it instantly entered the space between the eyebrows of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, which was less than five meters ahead.

At the same time, Lin Chen's last three spirit rings exploded.

Lin Chen felt as if his blood was about to boil. Although most of the energy had been channeled into his weapon spirit, the energy of a 100,000-year spirit ring was immense, and the Seven Kill Sword's attack power had already reached its peak under the infusion of spirit ring energy.

In addition, the energy from the four soul rings that Lin Chen had previously detonated had not completely dissipated, and the sharpness emitted by the Seven Kill Sword had now reached the attack strength of level 97, and even showed signs of breaking through to the next stage.

The energy of three 100,000-year spirit rings was immense, instantly pushing the Seven Kill Sword's attack power to its maximum capacity. The rest could only be withstood by Lin Chen's body. If more energy were poured into the Seven Kill Sword, there was a risk of his spirit shattering.

These forest dusts have all been studied and experimented with.

Therefore, Lin Chen stopped when he sensed that the attack rate of his Seven Kill Sword had reached the peak of level 97, and did not let it break through to level 98.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's mental strength was not high, and it was completely unable to defend against Lin Chen's move. At this moment, it felt as if its mental sea was about to be pierced.

The immense mental anguish caused him to roar, but his claws did not stop at all. At that distance, it would have taken less than a second to strike Lin Chen. Even if he was ambushed, he would only have a little over a second to dodge.

As a 100,000-year-old soul beast, he wasn't particularly clever, but he wasn't stupid either.

After unleashing a mental attack and infusing the Seven Kill Sword with the power of his soul ring, Lin Chen gripped the sword with both hands and slashed fiercely upwards at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's claws.

All of this was accomplished in the blink of an eye.

The loud collision between the claws and the Seven Kill Sword rang out again. Unlike before, this collision only lasted for a few seconds before Lin Chen's Seven Kill Sword severed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's arms.

Under the influence of Lin Chen's spiritual sword, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had no time to adjust its attack, and was thus defeated by Lin Chen in an instant.

Two bloody, thick arms fell from mid-air, while the remains of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear plummeted straight down, undergoing freefall.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's massive body smashed into the ground, creating a deep crater and kicking up a cloud of dust.

Lin Chen then flew back to the ground.

Upon returning to the ground, Lin Chen's body lurched forward uncontrollably, but fortunately, the Seven Kill Sword provided support, preventing him from collapsing.

"Cough...cough cough..." Lin Chen also coughed up blood. His condition was not much better. His soul power was in complete chaos. If another ordinary ten-thousand-year soul beast came, he would probably die here today.

However, Lin Chen felt no fear whatsoever. This was a life-or-death trial, and if he were to perish prematurely, he could only blame his own lack of strength. Even if he died, Lin Chen would have no regrets.

Fortunately, the sounds of their battle had already scattered the surrounding spirit beasts, so they shouldn't be able to find this place for a while.

Without its claws as weapons, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear posed no threat to Lin Chen whatsoever.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had not yet recovered from Lin Chen's mental shock. The pain in its brain, coupled with the pain from having its arms severed, made its roar even louder, to the point that its voice began to become hoarse.

"Heh, is this what it feels like to be put in a life-or-death situation and then survive?" Lin Chen muttered to himself.

At the last moment, the angel intervened to filter out the excess energy from Lin Chen's body, preventing irreversible damage. However, this all happened after Lin Chen severed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's arms.

"You're crazy! If you can't hold on, you can tell me. If you die, we're both finished," Qian Renxue said.

"Haha, Sister Renxue, I can't always rely on your strength, can I? I have to learn to face crises on my own, right?"

Qian Renxue was speechless, because what Lin Chen said was absolutely correct.

So I decided to drop the subject. "You're right, but the most important thing right now is to get out of here. I can sense a spirit beast of the mental type coming this way."

Lin Chen nodded and walked towards the struggling Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

A sword slashed across his neck, and the dark gold dinosaur bear instantly lost its life.

"Well, that's enough to give you a quick death."

Lin Chen collected the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's body and arms, put them into his storage bag, put on an invisibility veil, deactivated his Seven Kill Domain, and used his Life Domain to conceal his aura and the smell of blood before quickly leaving the area.

Just five minutes after Lin Chen left, a small but large-limbed soul beast, resembling a dog, found the place.

Although this soul beast was not large, its face was extremely ferocious, with a long and ugly face and protruding fangs.

If Lin Chen were here, he would have discovered that this spirit beast was none other than the Silver Spirit Beast that became Huo Yuhao's fifth spirit ring.

Having read the original work, Lin Chen's knowledge was considered high-level in this world.

The Silver Beast arrived here, sniffed the air, and then activated its mental perception to detect Lin Chen's whereabouts.

However, Lin Chen's disguise was not to be underestimated. The Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger was even rarer than the Silver Elite Beast, so its mental power was also stronger. Naturally, Lin Chen, who possessed the Blue-Eyed Divine Tiger skull, could not find the Silver Elite Beast.

Tiger-type spirit beasts are generally carnivorous, and their innate abilities are usually offensive. Looking across the entire continent, there are very few mental-type tiger-type spirit beasts. Lin Chen was incredibly lucky to encounter such a rare blue-eyed divine tiger.

As for Silver Elite Beasts, they are at most one in ten thousand.
