Chapter 489 280, Ruins of the Central Region! A Legendary Level Expert? Death is imminent!_2

And this accident soon turned into a surprise.

As traitors, they were well aware of the value of Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan.

Not to mention, capturing these two and offering them to the Flower God could net a handsome sum of Evolution Resources.

“Buy one get two, this is going to be a huge win!”

Excited, Bai Wubian immediately sacrificed Essence Blood to increase his Qi-Blood burst, and his flying speed soared to several times its normal rate in an instant.

Seeing this, Shangguan Yuehua also followed suit, sacrificing Essence Blood to enhance her flying speed.

She was more cautious than Bai Wubian and reminded, “Be careful, if Qin Chuan chose to flee here, he must be relying on something.”

Bai Wubian was unconcerned, “Don’t worry, I have been spreading my spiritual power to its maximum extent, always vigilant to any movement around us. If anything unexpected occurs, I can react in time.”

Since he had said so, Shangguan Yuehua did not say more and focused on boosting her speed to chase after Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan was seriously injured and not as fast as the two pursuing him from behind.

In just a few breaths, the gap had closed significantly.

Qin Chuan frowned deeply at this.

He also wanted to sacrifice Essence Blood to increase his flying speed.

Unfortunately, his circumstances did not allow it.

In the prior two-against-one battle, he had suffered heavy physical injuries and was in no condition to sacrifice Essence Blood.

Fortunately, he had entered this ruin on the edge of the Central Region several times and was very familiar with the environment here.

Using this advantage, he led Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan through a convoluted route, gradually increasing the distance between them and the two treacherous Deputy City Lords behind them.

“How is he so familiar with the environment here, has he entered this ruin multiple times?”

As Qin Chuan, once inside the ruin, became as comfortable as a fish in water, Bai Wubian’s face lost its initial composure and became more cautious.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yuehua said, “Old Dog Qin has gone into the pool ahead!”

Under the watchful eyes of the two traitorous Deputy City Lords.

Qin Chuan, along with Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan, plunged into a pool.

The moment they saw the bottom of the pool as they submerged, Shen Qinghan was first taken aback, then quickly realized and transmitted to Lin Zichen using Qi-Blood, “Lin Zi, it’s this pool.”

“This pool is the one that appeared in my Sea of Consciousness from the Palace of Water God, containing a large amount of water rich in Origin Force.”

“Look quickly, there are many oddly shaped aquatic creatures at the depths of the pool, just like the creature projections I saw in the Palace of Water God.”

“…”

Hearing Shen Qinghan’s words, Lin Zichen sensed the Origin Force contained in the water while examining the aquatic creatures at the pool’s bottom.

The Origin Force in the water was thick, so concentrated that it nearly crystallized.

The creatures at the pool’s bottom were extremely bizarre, similar to those in the Abyss, with life forms so unique they defied understanding, baffling anyone who saw them.

As Qin Chuan kept sinking.

Suddenly—

“Splash!”

A crisp sound of breaking water rang out.

The next second, Lin Zichen found himself no longer bathed in the cool pool water, but falling into a dimly lit space.

He immediately looked over at Shen Qinghan.

Seeing that Shen Qinghan was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, with a focused mind and alert, he carefully examined the surroundings of this strange place.

A quick scan revealed the area was surrounded by Source Crystals.

Most were columnar.

By their shape, they resembled the stalactites found in limestone caverns.

The only difference being, stalactites hung from the ceiling.

Whereas the columnar Source Crystals in front of him stood erect on the ground.

Sёarᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

If he wasn’t mistaken, they should have formed from dripping water.

Thinking this, Lin Zichen looked up above him.

The sight that met his eyes was an inverted water surface hanging overhead.

Above the water was the pool they had just been in.

So… this was a space beneath the pool?

How did the City Lord know about this place?

Had he been here before?

Lin Zichen’s mind was racing with thoughts.

At that moment, two powerful energy fluctuations came from the pool above.

Qin Chuan, who first sensed the energies, looked extremely grave.

Without any hesitation, he quickly turned to Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan and said:

“Head to the most secluded, most open spot!”

“Whatever you do, don’t get near the Source Crystals!”

“Fast!!!”

Qin Chuan shouted the last “fast” particularly loudly,

Worried that Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan might stand still in place.

Hearing Qin Chuan’s shout, Lin Zichen quickly scooped up Shen Qinghan and rushed toward a corner at their quickest speed.

He didn’t know the reason behind Qin Chuan’s instructions,

But in the current situation, he had no choice but to trust Qin Chuan.

Besides, there was no other way.

In just the blink of an eye,

Lin Zichen had taken Shen Qinghan to a hidden corner without Source Crystals.

Shen Qinghan asked softly, “Lin Zi, why does the City Lord want us to stay away from the Source Crystals?”

“I’m not clear on that.”

Lin Zichen finished speaking and then added, “For now, let’s stay quiet and watch for changes.”

“Okay.”

Shen Qinghan obediently agreed, then closed her mouth, staying silent.

Lin Zichen held his breath, his gaze remaining on the water surface above, quietly waiting for the two betrayers, Bai Wubian and Shangguan Yuehua, to come in.

At the same time, he spread out his spirit power, trying to sense the environment of the place.

However, the result was disappointing; the spirit power couldn’t diffuse at all, just like it was ineffective above the pool.
