A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 172 If you can’t beat me, just run away

Ji Lin originally thought he would suffer a severe injury, but to his surprise, the Emperor Armor automatically protected its master at the critical moment!

At this moment, Ji Lin, clad in imperial armor gleaming with golden light, appeared kneeling before the scene of the Overlooking Hotel, his figure exuding unparalleled majesty and power.

Just now, Alessa launched a fierce attack, heading straight for Ji Lin.

But the moment this evil force touched Ji Lin's body, a miracle occurred. The Emperor's Armor, representing light and justice, reacted swiftly, and a dazzling light screen suddenly appeared, tightly protecting Ji Lin.

As an evil spirit, Alessa was born to belong to the realm of darkness, and the evil aura she contained was completely opposite to the power of light represented by the Emperor's Armor.

Therefore, when her attack came, the Imperial Armor, with its powerful light attribute, immediately activated its protective mechanism and successfully withstood the fatal blow.

This is largely due to the Five Elements Bloodline within Ji Lin's body. As a system reward, the Five Elements Bloodline naturally has a much higher concentration of bloodline than the people in the Light and Shadow Village in Armor Hero.

Ji Lin slowly stood up from his kneeling position. With a wave of his right hand, he firmly grasped the Aurora Sword in his hand.

The sword gleamed with a dazzling light, as if it could sever all darkness and evil in the world.

Ji Lin held the Aurora Sword, its tip pointing directly at Alessa, and said coldly.

"Even if you kneel down and beg me now, I will never let you go! This place will be my main battlefield from now on!"

In fact, before this, Ji Lin had tried to summon armor in another realm at Elise's house, but for some reason, he could not succeed no matter how hard he tried. However, he did not take it too seriously at the time.

The sudden activation of the Emperor Armor's automatic protection startled Ji Lin, making him realize that there was still a huge room for improvement in his development and application of the armor and the Five Elements Bloodline within him.

However, this was clearly not the time to ponder this matter deeply, and Ji Lin strode toward where Alessa was.

With each step, the Imperial Armor emitted a crisp, melodious "crackling" sound—the unique sound of metal colliding with each other.

As his pace quickened, Ji Lin's speed changed from a slow walk to a jog.

As he approached Aresa, he suddenly swung the Aurora Sword he was gripping tightly in his hand, and in an instant, an extremely sharp sword light roared out.

The sword light initially appeared as a single line, but it expanded and extended at an astonishing speed in mid-air, eventually slowly weaving into a dense, impenetrable net-like encirclement.

In this way, Aresa was instantly trapped in a desperate situation with nowhere to escape.

The Aurora Sword's attack was exceptionally fierce; its power pierced directly through Jack's body, causing him some degree of injury.

However, since Jack was now possessed by Alessa's evil spirit, Alessa took the brunt of most of the damage from the attacks.

Just as Ji Lin was preparing to launch another attack, he keenly noticed the unusual change in Jack.

Jack, who had been so aggressive, suddenly became flustered and stood there as if he had lost the ability to move.

Ji Lin took in every little change in Jack.

He thought to himself that Alessa must have already left Jack's body.

It seems that even a powerful being like Alessa among the evil spirits could clearly sense the unparalleled power emanating from the Emperor Armor and was unable to contend with it.

Ji Lin sheathed the Aurora Sword in his hand and gently moved his slightly sore wrist.

Immediately afterwards, he moved swiftly in front of Jack.

With a flick of his arm, a tremendous force erupted, instantly sending Jack flying like a cannonball.

Coincidentally, Jack, who had been thrown out, crashed straight into Ji Lin, who was looking back at the hotel banquet hall scene.

With a loud bang, Jack crashed heavily into Ji Lin.

The sudden impact was so powerful that Ji Lin, who had been standing steadily, staggered and his entire figure vanished without a trace.

And the past scenes have simply vanished.

After witnessing this scene, Ji Lin was first slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized what was happening.

"So it turns out that the strange force I felt coming from behind was your doing!"

"Now all the old and new grudges have come together."

"Although Alessa was no match for me and fled in defeat, you will not escape from my grasp today!"

"I'll start with you. As for Aresa, I can settle the score with her after I've dealt with you!"

Just as Ji Lin gritted his teeth and said these words, Alessa, who was far away in another city, suddenly felt a tremor in her heart. A strong sense of deadly threat surged into her heart without warning.

At that moment, she didn't pay much attention to this strange feeling, but continued to focus on the task at hand.

Aresa expanded her city's territory slightly. Although the severe damage from the Imperial Armor hadn't killed her, it had left her teetering on the brink of death.

At this moment, she desperately needs a large amount of souls to nourish and repair her battered body.

Meanwhile, on the other side of a distant land, a crushing battle is unfolding.

Jack had been beaten so badly by Ji Lin that he was powerless to fight back.

Ji Lin looked down at his opponent, who seemed to have an exceptionally difficult time even standing up, and a slight, contemptuous smile appeared on his lips.

"Haha, the game's over, you pathetic wretch! Just accept your fate!"

Having said that, Ji Lin changed his mind and removed the gleaming imperial armor from his body.

Immediately afterwards, he mobilized all his magical power and rushed towards Jack like a surging torrent.

In an instant, Jack collided violently with that immense magical power.

In an instant, his figure swayed like a candle in the wind, and then vanished completely in a dazzling light.

Since Jack entered this alien land as a spirit, when his spirit vanished, his physical body in the real world also lost its vitality and became completely still.

Gradually, tiny specks of brilliant golden light began to slowly emanate from the stiff, lying body, like twinkling stars in the night sky.

However, these strange sights were beyond Ji Lin's comprehension, given his location in this foreign land.

After completely eliminating Jack, Ji Lin slowly turned around, his gaze once again fixed on the foreign land.

He looked around, but there was no longer any trace of vengeful spirits or evil spirits in this foreign land.

Time passed slowly, and after confirming that there were no longer any potential threats in this alien land, Ji Lin breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He took one last deep look at this place that had once been full of danger and the unknown, and then left without looking back.

Ji Lin's soul then vanished into another realm...
