Chapter 3320 - 3340: Got it!
Since the specters couldn't phase through walls and the ground could block their senses, what initially seemed overwhelmingly complex became incredibly simple.Earth Escape it is!
Lin Chen had a myriad of techniques. Surely, one of them would suit him!
Once the results of his experiment were clear, Lin Chen didn't hesitate further. He began a careful descent along the stone wall, inching downward.
His pace was deliberately slow; after all, the greater the disturbance, the faster the movement, the stronger the surge of energy would be. What if he alerted a horde of specters and they started attacking the cliffside?
Time was not against Lin Chen.
Though these specters were pure energy entities, Lin Chen, even deep within the ground, could sense them due to the relatively short distance.
Using the specters as guides, Lin Chen moved unhurriedly, descending steadily.
Reflecting on the current scene, it was honestly quite terrifying.
Inside the rocky cliff, Lin Chen had merged with the earth, sinking deeper and deeper. Meanwhile, outside the cliff, countless specters clung densely to its surface. And the distance between the two—wasn't very far...
Who knows how long had passed, but suddenly, Lin Chen's perception of the specters' presence weakened. Ahead, an energy fluctuation of immense force emerged.
In truth, it wasn't that the specters had disappeared but that their energy fluctuations were overshadowed by this overwhelming force. It was akin to a swarm of fireflies suddenly engulfed by the blazing Sun—who could possibly notice the fireflies' glow?
Lin Chen understood—he had reached his destination.
By mapping the specters' positions, Lin Chen had roughly deduced the situation outside. Deep within the fissure, a small object emitting an intense energy signature lay quietly. Surrounding it, countless specters lay submissively, scattered across the area.
This object, pulsating with immense energy, had a buffer zone of at least several hundred meters around it. Not a single specter dared to approach this zone—all stayed beyond that boundary, clustering densely.
Were the specters afraid of the energy radiating from this object?
Or was there some other reason?
Lin Chen silently approached the energy source. Through his senses, he noticed that while the object released a significant energy wave, its actual size was relatively small.
Carefully nearing the energy source, Lin Chen's form emerged subtly from within the ground. His face broke through the surface.
Opening his eyes, Lin Chen was greeted by the sight of a multifaceted crystal, about the size of a soccer ball, emanating a crystalline radiance in the pitch-dark depths.
The radiance wasn't particularly strong—not even comparable to a light bulb—but the colors were vivid and ever-changing, exuding an extraordinary, deeply enigmatic aura.
Kryptonite!
Lin Chen exhaled a sigh of relief. While he had suspected earlier that this was kryptonite, he couldn't be absolutely certain. Now that the kryptonite was right before him, he finally let go of his apprehension.
This trip wasn't in vain!
With this, defeating the Abyss Demon now seemed possible!
and ensured no specters were tailing them. Only then did they stop atop a massive meteorite.
"What does the kryptonite look like?"
Lin Chen retrieved the kryptonite from his spatial ring. Qingluan Immortal Monarch's gaze settled upon it, and her face lit up with joy.
"So this is it—this will restrain the Abyss Demon?"
Lin Chen laughed. "Since the elder clan chief said so, and we've now found the kryptonite, it should work as expected."
Qingluan Immortal Monarch laughed heartily. "Fantastic! With the kryptonite, we can vanquish the demon. This trip was worth it; we've accomplished something great!"
Lin Chen nodded. "Indeed. If it proves effective against the demon, our contribution will be immense."
Qingluan Immortal Monarch pulled her gaze from the kryptonite and looked into Lin Chen's face, her eyes tinged with emotion.
"I did nothing. This kryptonite—it's all thanks to you for retrieving it from the countless specters. The credit is entirely yours..."
