Chen Lin led the crowd to flee, but soon discovered that there were more and more insect monsters chasing them, and one of the dozen or so super powerful monsters in the distance was also chasing them.
He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stopped and said, "Everyone, flee and return to the city on your own. I will cover your retreat!"
All the team members showed expressions of gratitude and respect. Most of them deployed their best tactics and quickly disappeared. Even Zhuge Liusha looked at Chen Lin deeply and turned into a beam of light and shot away.
But some team members did not leave. Instead, they looked at Chen Lin and said resolutely: "If the captain doesn't leave, we won't leave either. Let's fight these monsters today!"
Chen Lin said sternly, "Bullshit! Why are you fighting? Without you, I can move freely. With you, I am just a burden. I appreciate your kindness, but get out of here!"
After hearing this, the team members stopped talking and left one after another.
In the end, only He Yuqing was left.
Seeing that the other party was stubborn and refused to leave, Chen Lin did not continue to drive them away. Instead, he opened his mouth and spit out his life-saving magic weapon, the Thunder Sword, which turned into a beam of lightning and shot into the group of monsters chasing them.
In an instant, a large number of insect monsters were killed.
Then, he took out the golden axe and used the Soul-Destroying Finger to kill a blade monster that was rushing in the front.
He Yuqing behind him also took out a spiritual flying sword and wanted to fight the swarm of insects, but was stopped by Chen Lin.
He looked at the super monster that was approaching, grabbed He Yuqing, then retracted the Thunder Sword, turned into a ball of lightning and disappeared on the spot.
With the deepening of the practice of Nine Changes of Heavenly Thunder, the distance of Thunder Escape Technique increased several times, and the time that could be sustained was also longer. After several consecutive attempts, he left the army of monsters far behind.
Originally, Chen Lin planned to investigate further, find the frog, and test whether the willow jar was useful. However, with so many monsters around, he did not dare to continue and directly took He Yuqing back to the base camp.
Instead of going home and letting He Yuqing leave on her own, he went directly to the residence of the Silver Fairy.
"Oh? You figured out how to use the willow jar?"
After listening to Chen Lin's report, the Silver Fairy immediately showed a look of surprise.
"Yes, Master. After my unremitting efforts, I finally cracked this thing. But it has not been confirmed whether it has a specific effect on the frog."
After saying that, Chen Lin took out the willow jar and handed it to the Silver Fairy.
The Silver Fairy only took a glance and said with a strange look on her face: "Have you seen the guardian girl again?"
The evil energy on the willow jar was sealed. This was not something Chen Lin could do. Not to mention Chen Lin, even she and Master Wan Meng could not do it. The only one who could do this and was related to Chen Lin was the little scarecrow girl.
Since the things were taken out, Chen Lin had the intention to expose this matter, and nodded and said, "Yes, Master, I was summoned by Niuniu not long ago, and the method to activate this willow jar was also found with her help."
The Silver Fairy nodded without asking any more questions.
Everyone has secrets. Although Chen Lin is his direct disciple, it is impossible for him to report everything to her.
Moreover, the little girl was too mysterious, and her strength was incredible. If she asked too many questions, it might arouse her sensitivity.
She took the willow pot in her hand, activated it with her magic power, and opened her red lips slightly, "Sitting in a well and looking at the sky!"
In an instant, the frog mark on the bottom of the willow jar lit up.
The Silver Fairy's gem-like eyes showed surprise, and she exclaimed: "This thing in the demon world is really unbelievable. The activation of a dead object actually relies on a command. It doesn't make sense at all."
After waiting for a while, she put down the willow pot when she saw the mark dimmed, and said, "Did you ask the little girl what she thinks of frogs? Are they native to the demon world, or are they projected, or are they demonized creatures?"
Chen Lin shook his head and said, "The situation was very urgent at the time. I was sent out before I had time to ask."
He was telling the truth. He really didn't have enough time. Besides the frog, he had many other questions he wanted to ask, but he had no chance at all.
Later, he also wanted to use the amulet as a medium to project himself in, but he was unable to sense the existence of the scarecrow hut. It should be blocked by the power of the seal as the other party said.
The Silver Fairy also knew that Chen Lin would not lie to him about such a thing. Although she was curious about what Chen Lin had experienced, she refrained from asking.
She changed the subject and said, "If this thing is effective, it will solve a big problem for the Alliance. You may not know that since the Zerg army appeared, three Nascent Soul cultivators have died in the mouth of that frog. It's just that the Alliance kept it a secret in order not to affect morale."
Chen Lin was shocked when he heard this.
How many Nascent Soul cultivators are there in the alliance? How could three of them die in such a short time
He wondered, "Even a late Nascent Soul expert like Fairy Baihua couldn't deal with that frog? The will of heaven and earth didn't react to that frog at all?"
He had witnessed the strength of the Fairy of Flowers with his own eyes. No matter how strong the frog was, it was not truly invincible in this world. The will of heaven and earth had only been weakened, not collapsed. If the frog's strength exceeded the scope of the Nascent Soul stage, there should have been some reaction.
Fairy Baiyin shook her head and said, "Our current enemies are not only the Zerg army led by the frog, but also the evil creatures of Tianyuan Island, the demons in the seabed, the ghosts in the underworld, and the strange spirits outside the domain. How can we let a strong person like Fairy Baihua take the risk to face the frog?"
Seeing Chen Lin frowning, she explained, "The frog's call has the ability to shock the soul. Even a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage cannot resist it. Although the insect army is huge in number, its overall strength is not strong. Except for the dozen strongest ones, ordinary Jindan cultivators can resist the others."
"So the alliance's response strategy is to use Jindan monks and foundation-building monks to devour the monster army, find the frog, and then use space treasures to send a large number of monks in batches to the frog and kill it with human wave tactics. After all, the frog is only strong in attack power, and its body is really just a weak frog."
Chen Lin was silent for a while after hearing this.
If this really required a pile of people, I don't know how many monks' lives would be consumed.
The number of monks is decreasing sharply every day. If this happens again, the overall strength of the human race will drop significantly again. Will they still be able to deal with other monsters
When the nest is overturned, all the eggs will be broken. He handed over the willow jar with the idea of getting rid of the frog as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that he was still a step too late.
The main reason is that the Elders Council has blocked the actual situation, otherwise when the Zerg army appeared, he would take out the willow jar instead of thinking about taming the frog himself and using it as a pet.
At this time, Fairy Baiyin stood up, put away the willow pot and said, "There is no time to lose. If we delay for a moment longer, we don't know how many cultivators will die. It just so happens that I, your teacher, have become the elder of the meeting with my cultivation in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Other forces have complained about it. I will use this achievement to shut them up!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Lin hurriedly said, "Master, the effectiveness of this willow jar has not yet been confirmed, so don't be impulsive!"
Fairy Baiyin smiled and said, "Why, are you still worried that your master and I will never come back? Even if the willow jar is ineffective, at most we will return empty-handed. It is wishful thinking for that frog to keep me here."
Even so, Chen Lin was still worried. He touched the amulet on his chest and said, "The creatures in the demon world are extremely secretive. It is possible that the frog has other means besides croaking. Master, you can't be careless. Let me go with you."
Fairy Bai Yin waved her hand and said, "You have a family and a business, and you have a lot of beautiful wives and concubines. You should not take risks lightly. If this is successful, I will not have to worry about other people's opinions and arrange a non-combat position for you because of your contribution of presenting the willow jar. Aren't you most willing to hide in the back? I will satisfy you."
Chen Lin's face was now as thick as a magic weapon, and he did not even react to this bit of ridicule. However, since the other party was confident, he did not need to be a burden and just said goodbye and left.
"Husband!"
"Husband!"
As soon as he reached the door of his house, he saw Qin Lingyu and Sun Caiyi looking out worriedly in the yard. When they saw him, they immediately came over quickly.
Chen Lin felt warm in his heart, knowing that they must have heard the news from the team members who escaped back first, so he smiled and comforted them: "Don't worry, your husband may not be able to fight, but his ability to save his life is still first-class."
After saying that, he took the two girls' hands and walked into the yard.
Housing in the city was extremely tight. Even though he was a disciple of the Silver Fairy and a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, he was only assigned such a small courtyard. He had no choice but to live in one courtyard with three people. However, this was already considered good, as other Jindan cultivators did not even have a courtyard.
As for the foundation-building monks, they can only live in small single rooms in townhouses, and some even have to squeeze several people together.
Entering the room, Chen Lin said solemnly: "The situation may be more dangerous than expected. It is hard to say whether this base camp can be held. You two don't need to do anything during this period of time. Hurry up and improve your cultivation."
After that, he took out a few bottles of pills and handed them to the two of them, saying, "Don't worry about the drug harm at this time. Hurry up and advance your cultivation to the perfect foundation building stage, and then try to form a pill. In this environment, the chance of a foundation building cultivator dying is too high, and I can't protect you all the time, so you can only rely on yourselves."
The two women nodded, took the pills in their hands, talked for a while, and then went back to their rooms to practice.
Chen Lin was very pleased. Although the two girls were sometimes petty, they got along well with each other and were very obedient, so he didn't have to worry too much about them.
Otherwise, he would have to deal with the outside world and take care of household chores, which would make him even more exhausted.
After sitting for a while, he was about to go back to the house to practice, but he saw that the two communication talismans on his body emitted vibrations almost at the same time.
He looked at the communication talisman, then looked at the two women's room, and was in a dilemma for a moment.
