Petty Gambler

Chapter 1525: Compromise


"No, I must escape quickly, otherwise, I will only get lost in this illusion, sinking deeper and deeper, maybe never getting out, trapped here forever, eventually losing myself, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion." Tan Yu thought immediately after finding himself in the illusion.


He didn't expect Lin Chen to be a Formation Master capable of setting up illusionary formations, which shows that Lin Chen's formation quality was not low.


Thus, Tan Yu took out another powerful magical treasure from his body without hesitation, immediately exerted his force and transformed into a strong sword light, slashing across the world, instantly splitting it open.


Catching this opportunity, Tan Yu hurriedly flew out from the illusionary world, and then dared not linger, quickly fleeing with his shield skill.


"Lin Chen, I've remembered you. It's not over between us." After escaping from Lin Chen's illusion, Tan Yu fled using his shield skill, not forgetting to leave Lin Chen with a harsh remark.


Although he knew Lin Chen only had Seventh Level of Nirvana Realm cultivation, he had many means and was not simple, yet he never expected Lin Chen's methods to be so powerful beyond imagination.


This caused him to lose two powerful magical treasures in Lin Chen's hands consecutively, making him bleed a lot, as the value of two powerful magical treasures is immeasurable.


At that moment in the illusion, Tan Yu understood that Lin Chen was definitely the most troublesome opponent he had seen so far.


And within the illusion, Tan Yu knew very well, if he didn't quickly find a way to escape, what awaited him was only death.


Lin Chen was terrifying, with many means, though only at Seventh Level of Nirvana Realm, he was even more challenging than strong players at the mid or late Creation Realm.


Upon discovering himself in an illusion, Tan Yu hesitated slightly, directly used a powerful magical treasure, and fought his way out to escape.


Seeing Tan Yu so decisive, directly using a powerful magical treasure to break the situation, Lin Chen was surprised but also admired this guy's boldness, as he used a powerful magical treasure without a second thought.


Lin Chen was initially thinking of trapping Tan Yu in the illusion and then slowly taking care of him. Since the other party was caught in his setup, Lin Chen had countless ways to slowly torment Tan Yu, possibly even driving him insane.


However, what Lin Chen failed to foresee was that Tan Yu was so willing, directly using a powerful magical treasure and then escaping.


Watching Tan Yu escape, Lin Chen didn't pursue him, too lazy to bother, continuing to mine with Little Profound Turtle.


However, three days later, Tan Yu came again.


But this time, Tan Yu didn't get too close to Lin Chen, after all, Lin Chen's methods made him wary.


If Tan Yu got too close, and Lin Chen used a Flame Explosion Talisman to blast him again, he would be seriously injured again.


And this time, Tan Yu came with no intention of fighting Lin Chen, just slashing a sword forcefully from a distance, then immediately retreating.


He couldn't let Lin Chen trap him again, or he would have to use up his last life-saving trump card.


It's important to know that he only had three trump cards in total, and he had already used up two with Lin Chen. Who knew what kind of danger he would encounter in these ruins, without any life-saving trump cards, he'd have no confidence to explore.


Or if he encountered danger again, he feared he would only face death.


However, this sword by Tan Yu was actually incapable of causing any substantial damage to Lin Chen.


After all, Lin Chen possessed the Ancient Divine Body and had the Fiery Fire Profound Armor for defense.


Still, Tan Yu couldn't hurt Lin Chen but was enough to interfere with Lin Chen collecting those Green Crystal Stone veins.


Yes, Tan Yu's real intention was not to harm Lin Chen, but merely to disrupt Lin Chen's vein collection.


With Tan Yu coming by with a slash now and then, Lin Chen didn't dare to overly consume his inner spiritual power, needing to always be on guard against Tan Yu's disruptions.


The key was, with Tan Yu choosing to keep a watch on Lin Chen, occasionally launching a sneak attack, this way, Lin Chen couldn't release Little Profound Turtle to mine the spiritual ore.


This made Lin Chen very angry after Tan Yu made a move, Lin Chen would always chase and bombard him relentlessly, yet couldn't stop Tan Yu from escaping each time.


This almost drove Lin Chen mad, as with Tan Yu opposing him, the amount of Green Crystal Stone he mined these days was pitifully small.


Lin Chen had the Purple Thunder Shield Beam, his speed with movement technique wasn't inferior to Tan Yu, but if both fully exerted their spells, neither could do anything to the other.


"Lin Chen, how about it, want to give up this vein? With me here, you can't mine." Tan Yu said coldly from dozens of miles away, watching Lin Chen.


"Hehe, so what if you don't let me mine, even if I don't dig, I won't give this mining vein to you. Do you think that if I can't dig, this mine vein will be yours? If I can't dig, then don't even think about it either." Lin Chen looked at Tan Yu and said coldly.


Hearing Lin Chen's words, Tan Yu suddenly felt that it seemed to make sense.


Given the current situation between him and Lin Chen, neither could likely overpower the other.


"Lin, it's no good for either of us to be in deadlock like this. How about we make a deal? Let's split this vein, on a seven to three basis." Tan Yu said lightly, looking at Lin Chen.


Upon hearing this, Lin Chen raised his brows slightly.


"Seven to three? So tell me, who gets seven and who gets three?" Lin Chen looked at Tan Yu, his eyes slightly narrowed, asked.


"Naturally, I get seven, you get three." Tan Yu said directly without thinking.


"Hehe, Tan Yu, Tan Yu, I didn't expect you to be even less smart than that fool Tan Yingping. Haven't you seen the situation clearly? Right now it's not a negotiation, but me having the upper hand, and you're the one compromising with me, yet you unabashedly say it's you seven and me three." Lin Chen said coldly to Tan Yu.


Hearing Lin Chen's words, a trace of disdain appeared at the corner of Tan Yu's mouth.


"Lin Chen, don't be ungrateful. I'm the future Young Master of the Tan Family, being willing to give you thirty percent already shows that I hold you in high regard, don't be unappreciative." Tan Yu said coldly, looking at Lin Chen.
