Chapter 318: One Against Four
For some unknown reason, when Han Jinlong met Lin Qiye’s gaze, his heart trembled slightly, and he suddenly had a sense of foreboding.
However, things had already reached this point, and there was no possibility of turning back. Han Jinlong firmly believed that under the influence of the Town Ruins Monument, Lin Qiye would only be able to reach the level of a Chuanjing at most.
If he wanted to go higher, it would only be possible if Lin Qiye were originally a Wuliang or a Klein, but considering his age, that was simply impossible.
Moreover, the four of them were all Chuanjing, and with four against one in the same realm, he couldn’t imagine how he could lose!
Among the four, the first to act was the thin man!
He casually picked up a handful of pebbles from the ground and flicked them at Lin Qiye with his fingertips at high speed. At the same time, a white light appeared on the surface of the pebbles, causing them to rapidly enlarge in mid-air. By the time they reached Lin Qiye, each pebble had transformed into a massive boulder with a radius of four to five meters!
Several giant stones, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, crashed toward Lin Qiye like cannonballs!
Yet Lin Qiye merely stood there, showing no intention of dodging. Just as the boulders were about to touch his body, he extended his hand and lightly snapped his fingers.
Snap—!!
A blinding golden light suddenly flickered on each boulder, and then these boulders, following their original trajectory, converged at a single point, colliding with each other and then bouncing away…
After bouncing apart, a tiny gap appeared.
And this gap just happened to be right in front of Lin Qiye!
The several boulders, merely brushing against each other, perfectly missed Lin Qiye’s body, not even touching a single hair!
This scene was incredibly bizarre; even the thin man who threw the stones was stunned in place. Such a low-probability event was something he had never encountered in his life, and now it was happening right before his eyes…
Theoretically, these boulders could indeed collide and create a gap that missed Lin Qiye’s body.
It was possible, but the probability was extremely low!
It met the triggering conditions for a miracle.
And Lin Qiye’s current mental power was sufficient to create this small miracle, resulting in the astonishing scene just witnessed.
Seeing the thin man fail, Han Jinlong cursed him as useless, and with a powerful stomp on the ground, he leaped almost instantly to Lin Qiye’s front!
He clenched his left fist and suddenly swung it out!
His fist, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, broke through the surrounding air, producing a piercing sonic boom!
In fact, even an ordinary power-enhancing type of Forbidden Ruins could exert formidable lethality once it reached a high realm!
His punch was fast, but in the darkness, Lin Qiye was even faster!
Lin Qiye’s figure left a blurred afterimage in the air, narrowly dodging Han Jinlong’s punch. Then, a brilliant magical radiance erupted from his body!
In the next moment, Lin Qiye’s body rapidly expanded, transforming into a towering green giant!
Transformation magic!
The green giant clenched his fists high above his head, like a massive hammer suddenly swinging down toward Han Jinlong’s back!
Almost simultaneously, a soft chant emerged from the green giant’s mouth:
“The heavens connect to the Five Ridges, silver shovels fall; the earth shakes, the Three Rivers’ iron arms sway!”
Boom—!!!
The ground around them trembled violently, and a dull roar erupted. Han Jinlong’s body was smashed into the earth like a chick, the ground beneath him fracturing inch by inch, creating a massive circular pit!
The rolling shockwave sent debris flying, splattering at the other three who were dumbfounded.
What just happened…?
At this moment, Han Jinlong’s back had completely caved in; Lin Qiye’s hammer blow had directly shattered his spine. If it weren’t for the fact that his Forbidden Ruins could significantly enhance his physique, he would have already been dead.
However, he was indeed not far from death now.
Amidst the rising clouds of dust, the massive green figure gradually shrank back to the form of a young man. Lin Qiye stepped on the barely conscious Han Jinlong’s cheek, his indifferent eyes revealing a faint killing intent.
He couldn’t let that useless man die! Lao Zhang shouted, quickly conjuring several barriers in front of him, forming a pair of large hands—one reaching for Lin Qiye and the other for Han Jinlong.
The other two quickly reacted; if Han Jinlong died, their plan to escape through the sewer would be ruined.
Lao Zhang and the bearded man exchanged glances. The former gently patted the bearded man, and a flash of white light passed. The bearded man’s body rapidly grew until he became a giant nearly five meters tall.
Then, the bearded man radiated a ghostly green light and instantly transformed into millions of flying mosquitoes, surging toward Lin Qiye like a tidal wave!
Though called flying mosquitoes, each one was the size of a leech, made entirely of metal, with glowing red eyes and menacing mouthparts resembling thick steel needles, as if they could drain a normal person dry in one bite.
Lin Qiye tore through Lao Zhang’s barrier with the night, and upon seeing this terrifying scene, a grave expression appeared in his eyes.
This was the first time he had seen a Forbidden Ruins that could decompose itself into other creatures. Just from the appearance of these flying mosquitoes, he could tell how destructive they could be. If he were truly bitten, even if he didn’t die, he would be severely weakened.
However, he believed that this ability wasn’t originally so troublesome. The thin man had first enlarged the bearded man’s body, and only then did the latter decompose into flying mosquitoes, which was equivalent to enlarging each mosquito, resulting in such a terrifying effect.
As he watched the overwhelming tide of steel mosquitoes surge toward him, an unusual light flickered in Lin Qiye’s eyes. He raised his hand again, and a summoning magic circle appeared in front of him. In the next moment, a small mummy walked out from it.
The little mummy seemed exceptionally excited upon seeing Lin Qiye, completely oblivious to the impending crisis, bouncing around and waving at him.
Speaking of which, this little guy hadn’t seen Lin Qiye for over a year. It had been extremely bored alone in the other world for such a long time.
Lin Qiye smiled wryly and patted its head, then pointed at the incoming wave of mosquitoes. The little mummy instantly understood his meaning, and its bandages quickly unraveled, revealing thick cannon barrels extending from within…
At the same time, Lin Qiye’s body once again radiated the glow of transformation magic, rapidly shrinking and transforming into a second war mummy in the blink of an eye!
The little mummy, seeing the identical Lin Qiye beside it, was momentarily stunned, then began clapping excitedly, thrilled as if it had found a kindred spirit!
Transformed into a mummy, Lin Qiye helplessly exchanged glances with it, and then thick cannon barrels extended from his body as well…
The two little mummies instantly transformed into two massive war fortresses, simultaneously raising their arms, and blinding flames erupted from their palms!
