Chapter 703 Don't Come Out and Embarrass Yourself

This creature is extremely rare. Even in the entire world, the number of Nine Nether Scorpions can be counted on one's fingers. However, Lin Chen never expected that he would actually encounter a Nine Nether Scorpion.

Moreover, the Nine Nether Scorpion is extremely powerful, comparable to level 500.

The Nine Nether Scorpion's body trembled violently, and its scorpion tail began to shake violently. Wisps of dark purple poisonous gas spread out, like a poisonous snake, and coiled around Lin Chen's body.

A sharp light flashed across Lin Chen's eyes, and his wrist shook lightly. Suddenly, a sharp pain was transmitted into the Nine Nether Scorpion's mind. It groaned, and its eyes suddenly became sharp. It opened its mouth and spit out a purple light, which penetrated through layers of space and went straight to the center of Lin Chen's eyebrows.

Lin Chen waved his palm upwards, and a water curtain appeared out of thin air. Purple light shot into it, and instantly stopped in mid-air, unable to move forward an inch.

"How dare you show this up and make a fool of yourself." Lin Chen said sarcastically.

The Nine Nether Scorpion hissed angrily, as if it had suffered a great insult. Its pair of dark eyes were red and filled with extremely strong hatred.

Its body was suspended in the air like a fighter jet. Its scorpion tail swung, leaving a trail of afterimages and slamming hard on the water curtain. A rumbling sound of explosion was heard, and circles of visible ripples spread out, tearing the water curtain apart and then sweeping towards Lin Chen.

Although these water curtains were destroyed, the Nine Nether Scorpion's tail became much dimmer, obviously consuming a lot of energy.

The Nine Nether Scorpion's tail is its tool for survival. Every bit of damage will cause it increased pain, so it will do whatever it takes to kill Lin Chen.

"As expected of the Nine Nether Scorpion, its patience is quite good." Lin Chen's eyes showed a hint of surprise. From the Nine Nether Scorpion's reaction at this moment, it can be seen that it is fully prepared to fight him to the death.

Lin Chen moved his feet slowly and ethereally. He waved his hand, and a soft yet vast sword energy burst out, instantly turning into a dazzling sword curtain that enveloped the vast void.

Crisp friction sounds were heard, and water curtains shattered. However, the Nine Nether Scorpion seemed to be crazy, and endless purple thunder gathered together to form thunder balls that whistled towards Lin Chen.

"Thunder energy?" Lin Chen suddenly thought of something. The Nine Nether Scorpion is a poisonous creature bred by the Nine Nether Demonic Poison. Its innate ability is to control the Nine Nether Demonic Poison.

No wonder the purple lightning just now gave him a familiar feeling.

The Nine Nether Demonic Poison is said to be able to corrode the blood of a strong man of the same level. Even if someone as strong as Cao Qiudao is infected with the Nine Nether Demonic Poison, he will be seriously injured and dying.

Of course, if you practice some special skills or secret treasures that can resist the Nine Nether Demon Poison, then you don’t have to worry.

But it was obvious that the Nine Nether Scorpion had not practiced any secret techniques, and had not even entered the ranks of Yuan Kings. It simply relied on the power of its bloodline to control the Nine Nether Demonic Poison.

Lin Chen's expression became more serious. The Nine Nether Demonic Poison was extremely threatening and it was definitely not something that ordinary people could contend with. Even a level 500 character would probably have to avoid it.

However, Lin Chen was not afraid. He had talked with real strong men before, so he naturally knew about all kinds of rare treasures. Although the Nine Nether Demon Poison was powerful, it was not worth his fear.

With a low shout, Lin Chen raised his arm, and a scorching flame leaped out from his palm, burning everything. He slapped forward, and flames gushed out, burning the Nine Nether Demon Poison to ashes.

There was a look of shock in the Nine Nether Scorpion's eyes, and its body suddenly rushed out, sweeping across the army with its scorpion tail, trying to destroy Lin Chen.

Lin Chen sneered, and his body turned into a phantom, floating around. The Nine Nether Scorpion could not catch any trace of Lin Chen at all.

The Nine Nether Scorpion's face turned pale. It knew that Lin Chen was extremely fast, but it didn't expect him to be so fast. It was simply unbelievable. This kind of speed could probably only be possessed by a fourth-level Yuan Wang, right?

"Go to hell." Lin Chen uttered a voice coldly, and the next moment, a sharp blade appeared silently on the back of the Nine Nether Scorpion and pierced through its body with a "whoosh".

An extremely miserable roar was heard. It was the wail of the Nine Nether Scorpion. The tail of the Nine Nether Scorpion was pierced with blood and the blood was spilling down, which was shocking.

The Nine Nether Scorpion was extremely angry. It made a mistake again. This human was too cunning.

Lin Chen did not continue to attack. As the Nine Nether Scorpion was a demon beast, it had extremely strong vitality. The knife he had just struck was not fatal, but it was enough to cause it some trauma.

The Nine Nether Scorpion went mad. Its body was shaking, and the purple scales on its surface became increasingly scarlet, faintly emitting a layer of eerie luster. A powerful wave spread out from its body.

The ground suddenly shook, as if the entire forest was shaking.

Lin Chen was stunned. He felt an inexplicable force coming from under his feet. Then the ground under his feet began to crack, densely packed like a spider web. At this moment, a huge rock flew out from the crack, blocking Lin Chen's vision.

This rock is several feet high, earth-colored, and has a smooth surface like a mirror, reflecting dazzling light under the sunlight.

A series of loud roars were heard, and the cracks in the surrounding ground became deeper and deeper. Pieces of rocks broke away from the soil and flew into the sky. Under the control of the Nine Nether Scorpion, they blasted towards Lin Chen.

Each rock was extremely hard and fell like a meteorite, carrying with it a terrifying killing force. The space seemed to collapse, and the scene was quite spectacular.

"Such a terrifying energy." Lin Chen stared at the scene below, his pupils shrank slightly. There was terrifying spiritual power flowing through those rocks, and the pressure was powerful and boundless. Every stone seemed to have experienced countless years, exuding a vicissitudes of life and ancient atmosphere.

In an instant, rocks flew out, covering the sky. Lin Chen's eyes flashed, and he swung his fists. A burst of hot fire power surged out from his fingertips. At the same time, there were bursts of shrill dragon roars. Dragon claws stretched out, and dragons and snakes appeared in the air, entwining around Lin Chen, baring their fangs and claws, causing the rocks flying towards him to be annihilated in an instant.

But this was not the end. Strands of black lightning shot out from the ground, cut through the sky, and headed straight for Lin Chen's body. Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged, and he suddenly took a half step back to avoid the black lightning. However, two black lightning bolts still struck Lin Chen, making a hissing sound and emitting white smoke.

"That was a close call." Lin Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead. If not for his extremely strong body, those two black lightning bolts would have been enough to seriously injure him.
