Chapter 1683 The Third Choice
A faint blue light flashed through Jialan’s eyes. Under the strain of her life force, her power surged again, easily tearing through the Han-style clothes that wrapped her body, and her aura began to rise rapidly!
Just as her energy was about to reach its peak, a hand suddenly pressed down on her shoulder, forcefully pushing her back.
“Just lie down quietly. You’re already so badly injured, why are you trying to get involved?”
Lin Qiye sighed helplessly.
“You…” Seeing her carefully accumulated power interrupted, Jialan was stunned for a moment. In the next instant, numerous Mi-Go descended from the sky, swarming toward Lin Qiye from behind!
“Watch out!”
Jialan grabbed Lin Qiye, trying to pull him behind her, but not only did Lin Qiye remain firmly in place, he even turned around to shield her in front of him.
At the same time, Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes, and countless cause-and-effect threads frantically emerged from beneath his blue robe!
These threads were formless and intangible. Except for Lin Qiye, no one could sense their existence. They easily cut through space, stringing together one Mi-Go after another, like a vast net covering the sky, ensnaring all the Mi-Go within.
“Don’t worry.” Lin Qiye looked down at Jialan’s eyes that were just inches away and calmly said, “They won’t get near you.”
Clang——!
The Amenonuhoko sword at his waist whistled out, a sword mark instantly flashed through the Mi-Go closest to him, directly cutting it in half at the waist!
Suddenly, the thousands of Mi-Go surging in the sky abruptly stopped.
A sword mark mysteriously appeared at their waists, separating their upper and lower bodies, as if an invisible sword had simultaneously cut through all the Mi-Go’s waists, even at the exact same angle.
Then, a second sword strike pierced through the head of the leading Mi-Go, directly shattering its tentacled head into a crimson mist of blood.
The same scene appeared on all the other Mi-Go. Streams of blood mist burst from the void, like simultaneously exploding bloody fireworks, instantly dyeing the gray sky red.
In an instant, over a thousand Mi-Go were all slaughtered!
This bizarre scene stunned Jialan. Blood rain mixed with falling white snow, sprinkling down onto Lin Qiye’s blue robe. The ground behind him resembled a scene from hell.
The invisible cause-and-effect threads withdrew from the Mi-Go corpses and returned to Lin Qiye’s body. From beginning to end, he never once turned to look at the battlefield.
His gaze remained fixed on Jialan, whom he was protecting in front of him.
Under the power of [Predetermined Outcome], all the Mi-Go were connected by him. Any damage inflicted on one would synchronize to all the linked Mi-Go. Even their life and death were bound by this web of cause and effect, where pulling one thread affected everything.
So, two sword strikes to kill one Mi-Go meant killing all Mi-Go… This ability was undoubtedly a dimensional strike against a race like the Mi-Go that relied on numerical advantage.
Jialan stared at the blood rain in the sky, her face full of disbelief.
The man before her was undoubtedly human… Could a human really possess such terrifying combat power?
After dealing with all the Mi-Go, Lin Qiye returned the Amenonuhoko sword to his waist and carefully examined Jialan’s injuries, his brow furrowing deeper.
“You’re already injured like this, why are you still forcing yourself to fight?” Lin Qiye said gravely.
“I… I didn’t know you were so powerful,” Jialan said softly. “This thing is extremely important and absolutely cannot fall into those monsters’ hands.
I had planned that if I couldn’t escape this time, I would destroy it first, then perish together with those monsters… Now since I’m going to die anyway, it would be good if I could give you a chance to survive.”
“Don’t you value your life?”
“Compared to it, my life means nothing.”
Jialan shook her head, slowly crouched down, and sat on the ground in the wind and snow. Looking at the dimly lit city in the distance, her entire body turned an unhealthy red, and even her voice grew weak:
“My time is running out… From now on, it’s up to you… If you’re willing, please take it to Mount Kunlun for me… However, every two days, those monsters will come again… No matter where you are, and in greater numbers…
If you’re unwilling, then destroy it…”
Jialan’s life force was like a flickering candle, rapidly dissipating in the wind and snow. When Lin Qiye had found her earlier, she was already hanging by a thread. Now after being dragged through the snow for so long and actively depleting her power to attack, her body had reached its limit.
Lin Qiye looked at Jialan before him, then down at the white medicine container in his hand. In his vision, a cause-and-effect thread had already connected him to her…
So that’s it…
This past cause and effect was actually initiated by me?
Lin Qiye’s gaze grew complex. Holding the medicine container, he slowly walked toward the weakened Jialan.
“Is there a third option?” Lin Qiye asked.
“A third option?” Jialan was stunned, frowning as if seriously pondering something. “There shouldn’t be a third… mmph mmph mmph…”
Before Jialan could finish, a hand holding something was directly stuffed into her mouth. The round object rolled down her throat, turning into a warm current that instantly spread throughout her body!
The next moment, Jialan’s life force, which was about to be extinguished, actually reignited, and became several times stronger than before!
The wounds on her body healed at a visible rate, the scabs disappeared, and even her realm began to rapidly climb, soaring to the peak of the “Klein” boundary, just half a step away from reaching the human ceiling.
The surging mental energy vortex stirred the flying snow, and a faint light flowed across Jialan’s skin, like an invisible film protecting her within.
“What… what did you feed me?!”
Jialan, feeling the earth-shattering changes in her body, looked at Lin Qiye in shock.
Lin Qiye smiled and raised the empty medicine container in his hand.
“!!!” Jialan jumped up from the ground, her eyes widening as she exclaimed, “You fed me the no-no-no… the Immortality Pill?!!! Are you crazy? Didn’t I tell you that it’s something crucial to the fate of the world! You…”
“But if I didn’t give it to you, you would have died.”
“So what if I died! You made me swallow it, how am I going to face the Queen Mother now!”
Jialan anxiously stamped her feet. She stuck her hand down her throat, trying to bring it back up from her stomach, but after several attempts, she failed…
“It’s over… The Immortality Pill has entered my body, and now it can’t even be destroyed… This way, those monsters will target me instead… If they capture me, everything will be ruined…”
