Chapter 661: Chapter 661

The man in black revealed a grave expression on his face and yelled at the people behind him, "All of you, attack together and kill him."

Suddenly, black aura entwined around the seven people as they pounced towards Lin Chen.

Watching the seven people charging at him, Lin Chen's eyes slightly narrowed.

All seven of them had fluctuations of Qi, but the Qi within them was completely different from his own.

This meant that the Qi in their bodies was applied by the artifacts they carried, not because they were supernatural beings themselves.

The fact that they had so many Magic Artifacts, turning these ordinary people into supernatural beings, was enough to prove the power of this organization.

Watching the seven charge over, the corners of Lin Chen's mouth slightly lifted.

Although the seven people possessed seven different attributes, the ones wielding them were still just ordinary people, nowhere capable of maximizing the potential of their supernatural powers.

Lin Chen snorted coldly as a net of fire instantly spread from beneath the ground.

Before the seven in black could even get close to Lin Chen, they were ignited by the flames and fell to the ground, howling in agony.

Just then, Lin Chen suddenly sensed a cold presence attacking him.

Lin Chen snorted, his body slightly shifting to the side, dodging the attack that turned from black flames into a long spear.

The man in black saw Lin Chen dodge the spear attack, his expression slightly changing as the spear instantly transformed into a chopping blade that swung horizontally towards Lin Chen.

This foe was extremely ruthless—if Lin Chen were to be hit, his body would likely be cleaved in half.

Lin Chen's eyes glimmered coldly, and with a flick of his wrist, he managed to scatter the chopping blade that had transformed from the black flames.

In the next instant, he heavily placed his palm on the chest of the man in black.

The body of the man in black flew backward like a kite with its string cut, slamming heavily into the wall behind him.

"Are you guys from the Black Alliance?"

Lin Chen slowly walked towards the man in black, his eyes flashing with chilliness.

Hearing Lin Chen recognize his organization, the man in black's face abruptly changed, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

He slowly stood up, wiped the blood from his mouth, and popped an Immortal Pill into his mouth.

After swallowing the Immortal Pill, the man in black groaned in pain, and his face suddenly twisted fiercely.

By then, the black aura around him was denser than before; all his veins bulged, and a murderous aura instantly enveloped his entire body.

"Kid, go to die!" The man in black sneered as his body transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing towards Lin Chen.

"Oh, the pill from the Black Alliance seems to be more potent than before, let me see how much it can increase your strength." Lin Chen smirked wickedly, watching the approaching man in black without dodging, slowly raising his right arm.

Seeing Lin Chen seemingly ignoring his attack, a trace of euphoria appeared on the face of the man in black.

However, just as he was about a meter away from Lin Chen, he suddenly felt a paralyzing sensation throughout his body.

The body of the man in black was entangled by a net of electricity, and he started to howl in agony.

By then, Lin Chen's figure had already appeared in front of him, throwing another punch.

Thunder roared, and the man in black was once again sent flying, slamming heavily onto the ground.

This time, the aura emanating from the man in black instantly became even more feeble.

"You, you're supposed to be a fire attribute, aren't you?" the man in black stared at Lin Chen in terror.

"Who said I only have one attribute," Lin Chen said with a slight smile.

At that moment, the man in black was thoroughly frightened. This guy's power was too strong, beyond what they could resist.

The man in black swung his hand and threw a spherical object on the ground; instantly, the entire forest was shrouded in black fog.

The other men in black also fled the forest one after another. Lin Chen did not chase after them but instead approached Sharen.

Sharen looked at Lin Chen with an embarrassed expression, "Thank you, sir, for saving me, but please, don't send me back to prison. There are their people there, and I will die."

Lin Chen nodded, "Of course, but I need you to tell me everything you know."

Sharen's eyes darted nervously, and Lin Chen's gaze turned icy, "Remember! I don't want to hear lies, or you know the consequences."

While speaking, Lin Chen flicked his wrist, and a fire serpent spewed out, instantly turning a huge ancient tree into ashes.

Witnessing this terrifying scene, Sharen swallowed and said cautiously, "I'll tell, I'll tell everything."

"Why are both the underworld and the law enforcement after you? Where is the sunken ship located? What exactly is inside it?" Lin Chen asked.

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Sharen's face slightly changed, but seeing Lin Chen's icy gaze, he gritted his teeth and honestly confessed.

It turned out that Sharen was a tomb raider. Recently, he had stolen from an ancient tomb in China and acquired an ancient document.

According to the document, during the Qin dynasty, a Magician had found an Immortal Pill overseas. However, on his way back to the Qin state, he encountered a storm, and the entire ship sank, burying the Magician and the Immortal Pill at sea.

Only one sailor survived by sheer willpower and returned to the Qin dynasty, reporting this matter to Emperor Qin Shihuang.

Emperor Qin Shihuang was overjoyed, and was just about to send men overseas to retrieve the ship and the Immortal Pill. However, he died of over-excitement on his way back to Xianyang.

Subsequently, peasant uprisings erupted throughout the region, and the matter became buried in history until recently, when Sharen and a few other tomb raiders uncovered this secret by robbing a Qin dynasty tomb.

Listening to Sharen's story, Lin Chen asked dubiously, "How can you be sure that this so-called Immortal Pill is real?"

"I thought it was just a legend too, but somehow the news about the Immortal Pill was leaked to these people. Originally, I planned to sell them the treasure map. However, later I learned that several of my fellow tomb raiders had died mysteriously. I'm sure it was these people who did it. Besides, if it's indeed a treasure ship, it must contain numerous treasures. And if the news about the Immortal Pill is true, I could attain immortality, so I decided to sneak into the ancient ship last night to search for treasures, but then you caught me," Sharen explained gloomily.

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. The historical fact that Emperor Qin Shihuang sought the Immortal Pill did exist, but most of the 'pills of immortality' found by the Magicians were fakes. So why did the Black Alliance value the treasure ship so greatly? There must be something they needed on it.

The Black Alliance was essentially an archenemy to him. Whatever they wanted, Lin Chen naturally wouldn't let them have it easily.

Lin Chen untied the ropes binding Sharen who then looked at Lin Chen pleadingly, "Sir, I am willing to give you the treasure map, please let me go!"

"Let you go? That is possible, but you must help me find that sunken ship," Lin Chen said coldly.

"But as that man just said, the Black Alliance already knows the approximate location of the sunken ship. Going there to compete with them is like seeking death, isn't it?"

Lin Chen's eyes remained cold, "Don't worry, as long as you cooperate honestly, you won't die."
