Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: Beating Up
In the grand hall of the Law Enforcement Hall, a comical scene unfolded, with Lin Chen alone chasing and beating up the others.
Though these Heaven Hall disciples all had higher cultivation than Lin Chen, none were his match.
It’s not that they couldn’t defeat Lin Chen, but during their confrontations with him, they dared not use their spiritual power.
Because once they used spiritual power, it would clash with Lin Chen’s overpowering physical strength, causing the power to implode and subsequently damage the facilities of the Heavenly Palace.
They couldn’t afford to compensate for the damage to the Heavenly Palace’s facilities.
So the group reluctantly resorted to battling Lin Chen using only their physical strength, yet this way, they were completely no match for him.
After all, even a strong figure like Liu Yong couldn’t withstand a single move from Lin Chen.
The group could only inwardly curse with frustration. In all their years, seeing many martial artists, they’d never encountered someone as formidable as Lin Chen.
Cheng Liang was also stunned by the sudden turn of events, initially thinking that he and Lin Chen were doomed to a beating.
But who would have thought it would end up like this? Lin Chen unleashed an overwhelmingly powerful force, beating everyone around them.
Though Lin Chen took advantage of everyone’s reluctance to use spiritual power, to avoid damaging the Law Enforcement Hall’s structures.
Before long, Lin Chen had knocked all the Heaven Hall disciples to the ground, then slowly approached the last one standing, "Shi An"
"Lin Chen, don’t come over, what do you want? I’m telling you, if you anger me, the Heaven Hall will not let you go."
Shi An’s eyes were filled with fear, continuously retreating backward.
However, after saying these words, he himself felt ashamed.
He, as a senior of Heaven Hall, was actually afraid of a new student, and one from Yellow Hall, with a cultivation much lower than his own.
At this moment, opening his mouth to beg for mercy felt like an utter humiliation.
After today, he didn’t know how the other disciples in Yunlong Heavenly Palace would view him.
"Run! As long as I escape the Law Enforcement Hall, I can use spiritual power to retaliate."
Shi An did not want to be beaten by Lin Chen. Although it wasn’t life-threatening, being taught a lesson by such a "waste" at the fifth level of the Nirvana realm, he would struggle to establish himself in Yunlong Heavenly Palace in the future.
So, without hesitation, Shi An turned and fled in one direction.
However, before he could take a few steps, a dark shadow flashed before his eyes, and naturally, it was Lin Chen blocking his path.
Lin Chen executed the Purple Thunder Shield Technique, his speed not inferior to a Creation Realm expert, making it impossible for Shi An to escape before him.
Facing Lin Chen’s mysterious movement technique, Shi An’s heart sank, realizing he had indeed underestimated Lin Chen.
For Lin Chen to possess such a mysterious speed, how could he be a mere ordinary martial artist in the fifth layer of the Nirvana realm?
Just from Lin Chen’s previously displayed incredible physical strength, it was clear Lin Chen was far from a simple martial artist.
"Lin Chen, let me go, and we’ll leave it at that."
"If you truly provoke me, consider the consequences carefully. Even if it means compensating with a few spirit stones, I must teach you a lesson today."
Shi An looked at Lin Chen and spoke coldly.
"Heh, if you’re scared, just say so. At this point, you’re still maintaining your high-and-mighty stance, threatening me. Do you think I’ll be afraid?"
"Since you want to teach me a lesson, I’m right here, why don’t you start immediately?"
Lin Chen looked at Shi An, let out a cold laugh, and said.
After hearing this, Lin Chen stopped wasting words with Shi An, directly raised his fist, and swung it towards Shi An.
With this punch, as with the others from Heaven Hall, Lin Chen used no spiritual power at all, relying entirely on his body’s strength.
Seeing Lin Chen make a move, Shi An gritted his teeth, thinking to himself that Lin Chen, being a mere fifth-level Nirvana realm "waste," couldn’t possibly possess such immense strength.
And he was a genuine half-step to the Creation Realm martial artist; even without using spiritual power, his physical strength shouldn’t be too weak.
Immediately, Shi An also threw a punch, colliding with Lin Chen’s fist.
Shi An didn’t use his spiritual power; although he claimed he’d spare no expense to teach Lin Chen a lesson, he was genuinely afraid of breaking too many facilities, unable to afford the compensation.
After all, no one knew how many facilities around the grand hall would break once spiritual power was used.
BOOM—
When Lin Chen’s fist collided with Shi An’s, Shi An finally realized the terrifying power of Lin Chen’s physical strength.
The immense force surged from the fist, Shi An couldn’t react in time; he only felt his fist lose control, hearing a cracking sound, followed by a crisp snap in his entire arm, possibly breaking a bone.
POOF—
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, and Shi An’s entire body flew backward.
Yet it wasn’t over; Lin Chen made a swift move, his figure appearing behind Shi An.
At this moment, Shi An had lost his ability to fight back, only able to let Lin Chen handle him.
Appearing behind Shi An, Lin Chen immediately kicked down hard, and Shi An’s whole body was crushed underfoot by Lin Chen, sinking into the ground.
BOOM—
The ground slightly vibrated, sand and dirt flying, and Shi An was instantly embedded into the ground, creating a large pit.
The disciples watching all around were stunned by this scene, utterly unable to believe their eyes.
This newcomer to Yunlong Heavenly Palace, who hadn’t been here for long, had actually defeated Senior Brother Shi An.
And he did it without using any spiritual power, which was the most terrifying thing.
Because a martial artist with such formidable physical strength must possess extraordinary talent and might accomplish great things in the future.
Watching Lin Chen beat up the disciples from Heaven Hall, the other disciples Shi An brought were all knocked down.
The surrounding Heaven Hall disciples intended to join the fight, unwilling to let Heaven Hall lose face.
However, witnessing Lin Chen’s terrifying strength, everyone fell silent, not daring to step forward to stand up for Shi An.
It’s a joke; with Lin Chen’s battle power so formidable at this moment, if they rashly rushed out, they feared ending up like Shi An.
Moreover, many primarily focused on cultivation, not caring about grudges like Shi An did.
