Chapter 677 Hiding is not an option

Lin Chen frowned, took a step forward, his figure turned into an afterimage, avoiding the quicksand, and then pointed a finger at Qin Yang's chest.

However, at this moment, Qin Yang's body suddenly became illusory.

When Lin Chen withdrew his arm, he found that Qin Yang had disappeared.

"I'm here."

Qin Yang held a long knife in his hand, the blade was shining with a dark light, and there was black demonic energy entwined on the blade.

"cut."

Qin Yang roared, jumped up, and with murderous intent, slashed out a terrifying sword light.

Facing this knife, Lin Chen quickly moved aside, but the blade still cut off the sleeve on his shoulder, leaving a huge wound on his shoulder.

As the severe pain came, Lin Chen groaned.

Qin Yang raised his sword again and was about to make a second strike.

Lin Chen's face suddenly turned gloomy. He swept his right leg across, hitting Qin Yang's abdomen and kicking him to the ground.

"I'm quite capable." Lin Chen threw out his right fist nonchalantly, hitting the opponent in the face.

This punch was unreserved, and Qin Yang suddenly felt as if his head was hit by a hammer, with unbearable pain.

He groaned, and flew backwards, hitting a big tree. The tree exploded, and Qin Yang vomited blood and flew backwards.

"No other tricks?"

Lin Chen grinned grimly and chased after him again.

He did not stop his attack.

Because he knew he couldn't lose.

His own strength, which has been verified many times, is enough to crush his peers. Only those powerful people who have retired or those old monsters can be his opponents.

As for the other side?

Judging from his many years of traveling experience, this person's strength is, at most, not much different from his own.

But he possesses extremely strong defense, and with his constantly improving level, he has pushed his strength to a peak.

How could he compete with me with just his awakened power?

"If you don't take action, you will die."

The moment the words fell, Lin Chen's feet suddenly accelerated, and in a flash, he was next to Qin Yang.

He punched Qin Yang in the chest, but Qin Yang showed no sign of resistance and even closed his eyes, as if he was prepared to be beaten.

Lin Chen's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm. He knew that this guy was only capable of showing off his courage. In that case, he would save himself the trouble of wasting energy. He only needed to use a little skill to defeat him. After all, the environment here was too suitable for him.

All it takes is a delay.

But at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly felt a sense of danger emerging.

In a flash, Lin Chen's hair stood on end, and a deadly chill spread throughout his body.

However, he had no time to react.

Because what he just thought of has completely become a reality.

A sharp claw covered with black scales pierced through Lin Chen's chest and directly tore his internal organs.

Lin Chen opened his eyes wide, lowered his head, and saw the ferocious dragon's claws piercing his chest, and blood splattered all over Qin Yang's body.

Qin Yang raised his head and roared, then swung his arm and threw Lin Chen away.

His body gradually returned to normal, and at the same time, the black scales covering his body also collapsed one after another.

Qin Yang was coughing violently and his face was pale.

The series of actions just now were completely instinctive, and he couldn't control himself. If Lin Chen hadn't looked down on him, he wouldn't have been able to get close and launch a successful sneak attack.

Lin Chen just smiled and took a step back, but Qin Yang was knocked to the ground by the huge rebound force, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

He climbed up with difficulty, stood shakily in place, and stared at Lin Chen with cold eyes.

He never expected that Lin Chen was so strong. He was obviously much weaker than him, but relying on his strong body, he managed to withstand two of his attacks and did not die on the spot.

Qin Yang changed his mind and made up his mind.

He had tried his best, but still couldn't kill the opponent. Since he couldn't win, he might as well give up and wait for the opportunity to escape.

Unfortunately, his idea was beautiful, but he was destined to be disappointed.

"Hiding is not an option."

Lin Chen shouted loudly, and looked around. Seeing that there was nothing special around except the trees, he frowned and looked at Qin Yang: "Stop pretending, get out of here."

Qin Yang looked indifferent, as if he didn't hear Lin Chen's words. He just adjusted his breathing silently.

He could clearly feel that although his injuries had not healed, they had at least stabilized, and his strength was gradually increasing.

This was because he had just activated the Black Scale Demon Body, and this set of skills was obtained from the remains of an ancient demon.

The Black Scale Demon Body is an exclusive skill of an extremely powerful demon lord in ancient times. It can improve one's strength under extreme conditions. The only flaw of this skill is that after using it, the body will suffer permanent damage, and it may even affect the lifespan and talent potential.

Qin Yang once thought about throwing away this martial art, but after careful consideration, he gritted his teeth and kept it.

His talent and potential have surpassed that of ordinary humans. Although this technique is cruel, it is the only way for him to improve his strength, and he believes that one day he will find a way to solve this problem.

But I didn't expect that I would be forced to this extent when I entered the secret treasure this time.

Now I just hope that this damn Lin Chen doesn’t recognize me, otherwise, I will definitely not be able to escape. Once I fall into his hands, I’m afraid I won’t even know how I died.

Seeing that Qin Yang ignored him, Lin Chen became angry and took a step forward. He raised his hand and grabbed, and a fierce gust of wind whistled towards Qin Yang's head.

Faced with this violent gale, Qin Yang did not choose to resist or defend, but continued to swing the hammer and rushed towards Lin Chen.

Seeing this, Lin Chen's eyes narrowed. Is this guy crazy? He actually dares to fight with him.

The next moment, his right fist blasted out, and a surge of true energy gathered in his right hand, forming a dazzling golden sphere. As the sphere flew out, it suddenly expanded and turned into the size of a house in an instant, and hit Qin Yang with a bang.

Accompanied by a series of hair-raising sounds of breaking bones, Qin Yang's bones shattered and he was thrown backwards like a cannonball, hitting the ground heavily and cracking the solid bluestone slabs.

However, that was not all. As soon as he stood up, Lin Chen kicked him in the chest again, and he was kicked away again.

Lin Chen's body flashed and moved several times in an instant. As soon as he paused, a ball of dark flame appeared out of nowhere, burning fiercely and covering Lin Chen's whole body.

A scream suddenly rang out, and a raging black flame burned on Lin Chen's body. The whole person fell to the ground like a meteor.
