Chapter 2393: Chapter 2394: Obstruction

The intertwining of two energies made Lin Chen feel waves of pain, constantly assaulting his nerves, and gradually destabilizing his consciousness.

Wang Hao seemed to understand the power of this sword technique; his gaze became increasingly serious.

He knew the terrifying nature of this sword technique. Such formidable power exploding within the body could inflict unimaginable damage.

Indeed, as he thought, Lin Chen was now covered in scars, his internal meridians filled with fractures. The energy derived from those fractures wandered within his body, injuring his organs, causing Lin Chen to feel a constant chest tightness, with a faint sweet taste in his throat, ready to escape.

He clenched his lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, forcing back the crimson liquid, feeling a taste of rawness, but his attention quickly shifted back to the pain.

For Lin Chen, this was necessary. The necessity stemmed from Wang Hao.

"That’s enough."

Just as Wang Hao was about to speak, Bai Ning suddenly intervened, grabbing Lin Chen’s wrist.

Instantly, a force surged from Lin Chen’s wrist. With the influx of that force, the two energies in Lin Chen’s body seemed to find an outlet, entwining in his arm, ready to break free.

Now, with Bai Ning’s intervention, that force quickly attacked the energies flooding into Lin Chen’s body.

Spiritual energy, like threads, raced and appeared as transparent tails in Lin Chen’s meridians, rushing towards the intruder.

Several strands of spiritual energy intertwined rapidly, but Bai Ning’s spiritual energy engulfed Lin Chen’s like a river, leaving no ripples.

The spiritual energy rampaging throughout Lin Chen’s body quickly vanished under such influence, remarkably.

In Bai Ning’s palm, a blood-red hue quickly rose and fell, returning to normal in an instant.

In a brief moment, the violent spiritual energy within Lin Chen dissipated, absorbed by Bai Ning’s sudden intrusion. The seemingly uncontrollable energies couldn’t rival Bai Ning’s entering force, revealing Bai Ning’s formidable power.

As the guardian of the Book Pavilion, Bai Ning naturally had his unique capabilities, unquestionable.

With such intervention, Lin Chen’s raised right arm fell limp, as if drained of all strength, and sweat dripped heavily onto the ground.

"Are you alright?"

Wang Hao stepped forward, supporting Lin Chen, casting a grateful glance at Bai Ning.

At this point, Bai Ning had released Lin Chen’s wrist, keeping his hands behind him, his face slightly sweaty as if he too suffered from the previous intervention.

Wang Hao glanced at Bai Ning’s slightly trembling arm, indicating the previous action wasn’t effortlessly resolved.

"Thank you, Elder."

Lin Chen shook his head at Wang Hao, then, breathing heavily, nodded to Bai Ning in gratitude. Without Bai Ning’s help, Lin Chen’s injuries would likely have worsened.

Despite Bai Ning’s intervention, Lin Chen’s arm still felt discomfort; the force grew stronger as it continued gathering in his arm.

If Bai Ning hadn’t grabbed Lin Chen’s wrist, his arm might have been ruined due to the energy surge, highlighting the strength of Wang Hao’s sword technique.

"Youngsters these days learn nothing good, only dangerous things."

Bai Ning snorted coldly, raising his head slightly, then glared at Wang Hao, turning to leave.

"It’s really hard to be worry-free every day."

Bai Ning flexed his sore arm, injured by Lin Chen’s spiritual energy, thankful that Lin Chen’s current ability wasn’t enough to fully execute the sword technique. Otherwise, stopping it would be difficult.

Though Lin Chen didn’t use the sword technique, seeing his condition, Bai Ning let them off and didn’t pursue Wang Hao’s actions.

Anyhow, in Bai Ning’s eyes, Wang Hao was a troublemaker. Even if Bai Ning expelled him now, he would still cling to Bai Ning, proving ineffective.

Bai Ning intended to show Wang Hao that he must follow certain rules here, or face consequences.

Unexpectedly...

Thinking this, Bai Ning sighed, feeling burdened by such a troublesome person.

"It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have used you as a shield."

Wang Hao helped Lin Chen up, noticing the blood vessels in his hand had burst, releasing a faint blood mist, making him feel guilty.

"No problem, this is just an early trial. It’s no big deal."

Lin Chen glanced at the wound; minor injuries weren’t significant to him. Thanks to Bai Ning’s help, only minor cracks remained on his arm.

With Lin Chen’s strong recovery ability, this wasn’t a big problem.

"You’re quite optimistic."

Wang Hao frowned, seeing Lin Chen injured because of him, feeling uneasy despite Lin Chen’s reasonable words.

"I’d rather know more about the technique. When using it, there’s always something not quite right, but I can’t pinpoint it."

Lin Chen changed the topic, which was valid; the power of the sword technique was terrifying, feeling something was off despite his strong body seemingly unable to endure it.

The horror was evident.
