At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

Lin Chen asked him to stay here and wait, and he and Empress Jiuxuan went to the rock crevice in the center of the valley to find the Jade Spirit Flower.

The two walked along the narrow gap into the mountain.

A fishy smell hit my nostrils.

There is a world inside this mountain, and there is an underground pool inside.

The pool is not deep, about half a meter wide, and it is arranged like a giant fish tank.

In the fish tank, there is a bright purple-black flower, about an inch high, growing in the middle of the water, blooming, exuding a gleaming luster, like a crystal clear amber.

This small purple-black flower is the 'Jade Spirit Grass', and it is also one of the reasons why Empress Jiuxuan went out this time.

Neither Lin Chen nor Empress Jiuxuan noticed that a small snake with a dark body and a slender body, like a lizard, quietly crawled towards the 'Jade Spirit Grass', then got into the soil and disappeared.

"This is the 'Jade Spirit Grass'."

Empress Jiuxuan looked at the 'Jade Spirit Grass' in front of her with an excited look on her face.

"Yes. This is the 'Jade Spirit Grass'. Do you want to eat it?" Lin Chen asked.

Empress Jiuxuan hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head and said: "This thing is too precious, I dare not eat it, but you can give it away, my father will probably like it!"

"Oh? To whom?"

"My eldest brother. His cultivation qualifications are extremely poor, but he is kind and honest. My father likes him very much."

Empress Jiuxuan thought for a while and said, "Not only does my father like him, but the ministers also like him. This 'Jade Spirit Grass' can increase the speed of cultivation, but it is difficult for him to improve his realm, so this thing probably won't do anything to him. It works! But I think my father will be very happy!”

"You are quite thoughtful."

Lin Chen praised it, but still refused, "This 'Jade Spirit Grass' is also very useful to me. I don't want to waste it, so I'd better keep it!"

"you……"

Seeing that Lin Chen didn't want it, Empress Jiuxuan said anxiously: "Lin Chen, you don't have to worry about anything. Anyway, you have agreed to marry me, and I have decided to follow you in the future! What is yours is mine! This 'Jade Spirit Grass' You must eat!"

Lin Chen looked at Empress Jiuxuan in astonishment.

"Lin Chen, this 'Jade Spirit Grass' is the only rare medicinal material in the Tianming Continent. Now that you are getting more and more powerful, it will be more difficult for us to find the 'Jade Spirit Grass' in the future! But don't worry, I I will practice hard and try to help you in the future!”

Seeing Lin Chen looking at her in surprise, Empress Jiuxuan thought that Lin Chen felt that her words were a bit exaggerated, so she hurriedly explained a few words.

"You don't have to fight to help me in the future, you can help me now." Lin Chen said.

"Well……"

Empress Jiuxuan was stunned, a little dumbfounded.

"What's wrong? Did I just say something wrong?"

Lin Chen looked at Empress Jiuxuan with some surprise, "My strength is indeed top-notch here. However, after all, I can't stay here forever. I still have a lot of things to do. So, if you are willing to accompany me, I hope you can help me as much as possible!"

After saying this, he stared at the pretty face of Empress Jiuxuan, wanting to see what her expression would be.

"Lin Chen, you... do you really think so?"

The Jiuxuan Empress looked at Lin Chen blankly, her heart beating wildly. She had never been invited so sincerely, and this made her mind go into chaos.

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Yes, isn't it possible?"

"Okay!" Empress Jiuxuan nodded hurriedly.

She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this guy was finally a little shy and not as cold and heartless as the rumors said.

"Ahem!"

Lin Chen coughed dryly and said, "Um...when are we going to get married? I'm not ready yet."

Empress Jiuxuan's dull beautiful eyes blinked. She thought Lin Chen was going to propose to her, but she didn't expect Lin Chen to say such a thing.

puff!

Empress Jiuxuan was stunned for a moment, her cheeks were slightly red, she glared at Lin Chen and said angrily: "I hate it, you are so bad!"

"Haha!" Lin Chen smiled, ignoring Empress Jiuxuan's coquettishness, and continued: "Take me out first before we talk. It stinks in here and I can't stand it anymore!"

Empress Jiuxuan's cheeks were hot, and she quickly changed the subject and said, "This cave is a little slippery, so it's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's get out of here quickly."

Lin Chen nodded and followed Empress Jiuxuan towards the exit of the cave. Suddenly, he stopped suddenly and looked at the messy dead branches and leaves on the ground. His eyes fell on a black line under a dead tree. On the little snake.

The little snake has a long and slender body, and its whole body is as black as black ink. It is about three feet long.

Its tail has circles of silver-white scales, as if made of steel, and its sharp fangs show its aggressiveness. Its eyes are light green, with shrunken pupils and a cold glow.

Lin Chen frowned and looked at the little snake.

Although this little snake did not bring any sense of oppression to Lin Chen, Lin Chen could clearly feel that this little snake contained terrifying and destructive energy, which definitely reached the level of a golden elixir.

Lin Chen even felt that the soul level of this little snake had reached the peak of the early stage of the Golden Elixir!

If you fight with this little thing, your winning rate is less than one in ten thousand!

Before he could speak, Empress Jiuxuan had already noticed the little snake. Her body tensed up in fear, and she screamed in fear: "Snake...snake! Run quickly, it's a black-scaled python!"

"Black-scaled python!"

Lin Chen was also startled, and quickly took Empress Jiuxuan's hand and ran out, running away.

He thought to himself, this girl is really as timid as a mouse, and she was actually frightened by a snake.

Little did he know, because this little snake was so ferocious and ferocious that even Empress Jiuxuan was used to seeing all kinds of creatures, she was frightened out of her wits.

Lin Chen pulled the Jiuxuan Empress and flew out of the cave. Just after running a few hundred meters away, he heard a rumbling sound and a black snake rushed out from the heart of the mountain.

The black snake was seven or eight meters long. The thick snake made a hissing sound while its scarlet eyes stared at Lin Chen and the two.

Lin Chen and Empress Jiuxuan stopped. Both of them looked solemn. To them, snake monsters of this level were simply behemoths. Even if they joined forces, they would definitely not be their opponents.

Lin Chen glanced at the Jiuxuan Empress's chest from the corner of his eyes, and murmured in his heart. Seeing that this woman usually looked aloof, she didn't expect that her chest was bigger than Su Xiran's, and her skin was as smooth as suet-fat white jade.

Suddenly, Lin Chen's expression changed and he shouted: "No! Get out of the way!"

After saying that, he pulled Jiu Xuan Empress to dodge to the side. At the same time, a huge black shadow fell on the ground with a muffled bang, dust flew up, and the entire mountain wall shook, and rocks rustled. It fell down.

It turned out that after the black snake landed on the ground, it crashed directly into the rock, and it came out at this moment. Although its body was small, it was extremely fast, faster than the speed of sound.

At this moment, hovering in the air, the cold snake eyes were staring at Lin Chen and Empress Jiuxuan, their eyes were bloodthirsty and full of cruelty and violence.

Empress Jiuxuan was so frightened that her face turned pale, while Lin Chen frowned and said, "We are in trouble."

"Yes." Empress Jiuxuan responded lightly.

Lin Chen looked around. There were many caves here. They were so dense that they couldn't be seen clearly. He asked, "How many caves like this are there in this cave?"

"Six places." Empress Jiuxuan replied.

"There are these little snakes in all six caves?"

"Um."

"It seems that we are very unlucky and encountered a group of monster beasts living in groups!"

Lin Chen frowned. The strength of this group of monster beasts was basically equivalent to that of a strong person in the Hedao Realm.

He wasn't afraid, but the giant black-scaled python looked a little weird. If it were a head-on fight, he probably wouldn't be his opponent.

Empress Jiuxuan also noticed this situation, and her face turned pale. Although she also had the cultivation level of Hedao realm, compared with the black-scaled giant python in the middle stage of Hedao realm, there was a huge difference.

She trembled: "What should we do? What should we do? I'm so scared!"

"Don't worry, I will try to delay as much time as possible and let you leave safely."

Lin Chen comforted him, then looked at the giant black-scaled python and shouted: "Little beast, since you are a monster, then let's get out of here if we are sensible enough! Otherwise, you will definitely die today!"

Roar!

The black-scaled giant python let out an angry roar. It is a descendant of the black python. Although it is only a cub, it is also intelligent, can understand human language, and is even more vengeful.

These two despicable humans dared to break into its lair and deserved death.

A ball of flame burst out from its head, then flapped its wings and instantly turned into a stream of light, rushing towards Lin Chen.

It was extremely fast and rushed in front of Lin Chen in a blink of an eye. It opened its fangs and bit Lin Chen's neck fiercely, trying to tear Lin Chen into pieces!

boom!

Lin Chen raised his leg and kicked the black-scaled python. The black-scaled python was in pain, rolled over, and hit the mountain wall.

The scales on its body were tough, and Lin Chen's kick did not hurt it.

It got up, neighed, twisted violently, and rushed towards Lin Chen again.

This time, it opened its mouth and sprayed out purple-black mist, which was filled with poison and corroded the air, creating bursts of green smoke.

"snort!"

Lin Chen snorted coldly, and the figure disappeared. In the blink of an eye, he was on top of the black-scaled python, punching out, and the air exploded.

Poof!

With a crisp sound, the black-scaled python's head jerked away, and blood spurted out from its head.

Immediately afterwards, the black-scaled python fought back and whipped its tail towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen dodged sideways, seized the opportunity, and slapped the black-scaled python with his palm. The body of the black-scaled python flew backwards and hit the ground.

Empress Jiuxuan was stunned by this scene.

In her impression, Lin Chen was not as strong as the Qi Refining Realm, but at this moment, he showed speed and terrifying power that was comparable to that of a strong person in the early stage of Nascent Soul.

This really made her unbelievable!

"Little snake, are you convinced?"

Lin Chen looked down at the black-scaled giant python lying on the ground, struggling, and said indifferently.

The black-scaled python roared angrily, seeming to express its unwillingness and begging for mercy.

"If you don't want to surrender, then what's the point of keeping you?"

Lin Chen shook his head and sighed, then he made a fist with his right hand, burning red flames in his fist, and then aimed at the black-scaled python's head and smashed it down.

"Ouch!"

Feeling Lin Chen's murderous intention, the black-scaled giant python let out a shrill scream. After all, it did not dare to provoke Lin Chen anymore. It knew that if it continued, its fate would be very tragic.

Uh-huh!

When Lin Chen saw this, he jumped onto the back of the black-scaled python, stepped on its back, and ran towards the distance.

Rumble…

A powerful pressure came from the black-scaled python, as if a giant was standing next to Lin Chen, weighing him down and making him breathless.

"ah!"

Empress Jiuxuan screamed in surprise, because she suddenly discovered that the tail of the black-scaled python was actually lashing towards her.

"court death!"

Lin Chen snorted coldly, the Xuanyuan gun appeared in his hand, and stabbed the black-scaled python's swinging tail. There was a click sound, and the black-scaled python's tail was pierced by Lin Chen.

"Ouch!"

The black-scaled python wailed, tears came out of its eyes in pain, and it twisted wildly, trying to throw Lin Chen away.

Lin Chen turned over and rode on the back of the black-scaled python, grabbed the black-scaled python's head with his left hand, and stabbed it hard with the Xuanyuan spear in his right hand.

Bang!

"Plop!"

Accompanied by a dull sound, blood spurted out, and the black-scaled python's head was pierced by Lin Chen's spear, and the smelly blood spilled all over the ground.

"Ah, alas..." The black-scaled python screamed unwillingly, and after twitching a few times, it stopped moving and died.

"Ah! Lin Chen, you, you killed it? You killed it! Do you know that if this happens, both of us will die!" The Nine Mysterious Queen was terrified and shouted to Lin Chen.
