Chapter 170 Past? Present?
Chapter 170 Past? Present?
Ji Lin stared coldly at the blurry figure in front of him. The figure slowly turned around and faced the two hideous evil spirits.
Because of the distance, Ji Lin couldn't hear what they were saying, but he keenly noticed that the two evil spirits' bodies began to tremble violently involuntarily.
Ji Lin frowned, slowly stood up, and stretched his slightly stiff muscles.
Although the fierce battle with the evil spirit had not endangered his life, the sneak attack he had suffered still made him feel quite uncomfortable.
After a slight adjustment, the figure seemed to have completed its communication with the evil spirit, turned around, and slowly moved closer.
As the distance gradually closed, Ji Lin was finally able to see the other person's face clearly.
This is a typical Western male image: a high-bridged nose, deep blue eyes, and slightly curly blond hair.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Jack, a demon agent," the man said, his voice deep and magnetic.
However, Ji Lin had no interest in this guy who introduced himself, and even thought that what he said was a bunch of nonsense.
With a wave of his arm, Ji Lin transformed the Gatling gun he had been holding into a gleaming golden spear.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Lin, spear in hand, charged straight at Jack like an arrow released from a bow.
Jack clearly hadn't expected Ji Lin to be so brave and fearless. Before he could react, Ji Lin had already rushed in front of him like lightning.
With a roar, Ji Lin thrust out his spear like a dragon emerging from the sea, its speed as fast as lightning and its momentum astonishing.
Caught off guard, Jack was sent flying into the air by this fierce attack.
He was secretly shocked by the speed and power of Ji Lin's attack, and had no time to make any effective defensive moves.
"We're even now about the ambush, but if you're lucky enough to survive my attack, perhaps then I'll be in the mood to sit down and listen to your so-called story."
While shouting loudly, Ji Lin gave Jack no chance to catch his breath, wielding his spear with impenetrable speed, and continued to launch wave after wave of fierce attacks on Jack in mid-air.
As Ji Lin's fierce and powerful attack drew ever closer like a storm, Jack's heart tightened, and he dared not be careless in the slightest.
He hurriedly leaped to his feet, his figure flashing rapidly, barely avoiding Ji Lin's fatal blow.
Jack suddenly swung his hands forward, and in an instant, a gust of cold wind howled past. The red-faced demon and the black-clad old woman appeared in front of him and rushed towards Ji Lin without hesitation, tightly protecting Jack behind them.
Immediately afterwards, the three quickly formed an encirclement, trapping Ji Lin in the middle.
Even so, Ji Lin showed no fear; instead, his eyes gleamed with excitement as he wielded his weapon with increasing ferocity, making it difficult for Jack and the two evil spirits to defend themselves.
As time went on, the fierce battle gradually intensified, and despite their best efforts, Jack and the two evil spirits were gradually losing ground.
Just as the battle was at a stalemate, Jack suddenly flashed and retreated swiftly to the edge of the battlefield, leaving only the red-faced demon and the black-clad old lady to continue their fight with Ji Lin in the center of the arena.
At the same time, Ji Lin keenly sensed an extremely sinister and terrifying aura sweeping in from all directions.
He was startled and hurriedly turned around to look, only to find to his surprise that the seemingly ordinary human Jack had disappeared, replaced by a ferocious monster dressed in black with a bright red face!
"Good heavens, they actually have this trick up their sleeve, they can actually combine?" Ji Lin stared at the bizarre scene before him and couldn't help but think to himself.
At this moment, the monster opened its blood-red maw and let out a terrifying roar.
"Hmph, I didn't want to resort to such methods, but you forced me to! Can't you just obediently die?" With that, it emitted billowing black energy and pounced menacingly towards Ji Lin.
The monstrous Jack emanated powerful energy fluctuations, gathering a dazzling light in his hands before unleashing a fierce attack on Ji Lin.
Ji Lin reacted extremely quickly, dodging the fatal blow in a flash.
However, before Ji Lin could catch his breath, Jack instantly moved behind him.
A pair of strong, large hands suddenly reached out and grabbed Ji Lin's shoulders tightly. Then, with a forceful jerk, Ji Lin flew out like a kite with a broken string, finally crashing heavily to the ground with a loud bang.
When Ji Lin struggled to his feet, he was astonished to find that his surroundings had changed drastically.
Familiar scenes kept appearing all around him, scenes that he had personally experienced in the past.
At this moment, Ji Lin couldn't help but recall the words that Iris had once told him.
“In this mysterious and exotic land, time and space intertwine and overlap, and sometimes you can even encounter your past self here…” Everything I saw before me confirmed what Elise had said.
Ji Lin dared not hesitate for a moment and hurriedly looked around, trying to find Jack's figure.
Soon, he noticed a scene unfolding in a nearby alley that shocked him.
That was the very place where he had been surrounded by a group of fierce-looking thugs sent by the pawnshop owner when he first arrived in this world.
At this moment, Jack was grinning maliciously as he approached Ji Lin, who was then powerless, step by step, about to deliver the fatal blow!
Upon seeing this scene, Ji Lin's heart leaped into his throat, filled with extreme anxiety!
He gritted his teeth, his legs instantly lifted off the ground, and he sprinted like lightning towards the dark and deep alley.
Ji Lin's figure flashed across the night sky like lightning, his speed astonishing.
Just as Jack was about to deliver the fatal blow, Ji Lin slammed into Jack like a cannonball.
The immense impact sent both of them flying, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye, entering another mysterious and unpredictable space-time.
"Damn it! You really are ruthless! You can't kill me now, so you actually tried to murder me in the past!" Ji Lin roared in uncontrollable rage.
Because Jack and Ji Lin were both in this strange, alien space, Jack was able to easily intrude into scenes related to Ji Lin's past.
Fortunately, their fierce clashes in that foreign land will not be noticed by those who witnessed it before.
Moreover, in this alien realm filled with unknown forces, certain scenes from the past can be devastated.
At this moment, the scene where Ji Lin and Jack are in appears to be looking out at the surface world of the hotel's forest maze.
In this seemingly peaceful environment, Xinghai and Huan'er suddenly appeared in sight without warning.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Lin mobilized all his magical power without hesitation, quickly clasped his hands together, and chanted incantations.
In an instant, an incredibly powerful energy erupted from his palm, transforming into a dazzling beam of light that shot straight toward Jack.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Lin moved with lightning speed, rushing towards Xinghai and Huan'er's location.
After reaching their side, Ji Lin extended his right hand and gently patted their backs.
With this action, the scene that was once clearly visible vanished completely in an instant, as if smoke had dissipated...
