A Treasure for a Beauty

Fortunately, when Agumon fell, the strength in his arms loosened considerably, allowing Liu Lin and Rou Rou to break free and avoid being pinned down by Agumon.

"Agumon, what's wrong?"

Lin Chen leaped off Agumon's back and hurriedly came to Agumon's side, anxiously asking, "What's wrong?"

"Lin Chen, I feel so hot inside," Agumon murmured in pain, his eyes tightly closed.

Lin Chen reached out his right hand and touched Agumon's head, immediately letting out a loud "Ah!" from the heat.

"What happened? It was fine just now, how did it suddenly become so hot?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

Rou Rou walked up to Agumon, observed it carefully, and then reached out to feel the high temperature on Agumon's body. After pondering for a while, she said, "Agumon was probably injured when it fought against that middle-aged man's high-level magic, Heavenly Flame Funeral."

"But when Agumon came out, everything was fine, wasn't it?" Lin Chen pressed.

"Agumon was probably afraid that if it fell, it wouldn't be able to intimidate the middle-aged man and his group anymore, so it held on until just now when it couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground," Rou Rou guessed.

"What should we do now? Agumon looks a bit bad." Lin Chen started to lose his composure.

"Use the Azure Spirit Ear. The Azure Spirit Ear contains a lot of vitality, which can replenish the life force lost by Agumon. With the rest, Agumon's own fire resistance should be enough to withstand it," Rourou said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen immediately took out a small wooden box that Liu Lin had given him from his pocket, opened the lid, took out the Azure Spirit Ear inside, and put it to the mouth of the Agumon.

However, at this moment, Agumon, who was already seriously injured, had completely fallen into a coma and was unable to swallow the Azure Spirit Ear on its own.

Having no other choice, Lin Chen had to pry open Agumon's mouth and feed it Qingling Ear.

But when he touched Agumon's body again, he was immediately burned by the intense heat.

"Let me help you," Liu Lin said as she walked over.

"Ice Vines - Cover".

White frost descended around Agumon, colliding with its intense heat and instantly turning into water vapor.

However, the frost also caused Agumon's body temperature to drop significantly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Chen pried open Agumon's mouth and poured all of the Azure Ears into it.

After Lin Chen put the Azure Spirit Ear into Agumon's mouth, he was just about to figure out how to get Agumon to swallow it when Agumon's mouth began to move involuntarily. Before long, it had chewed up the Azure Spirit Ear and swallowed it whole.

As time passed, the effects of the Blue Spirit Ear began to take hold, and Agumon's listless aura gradually returned to normal, as did its body temperature.

Seeing Agumon's current condition, Lin Chen finally felt relieved, but his hatred for the group of young men with kidney deficiency deepened.

Even if they don't cause me any more trouble, I won't let them off easily.

"Lin Chen, Agumon has successfully advanced and its condition is starting to improve. What should we do next?" Liu Lin asked Lin Chen.

"I plan to follow the red light to the location after Agumon recovers," Lin Chen said after a moment of contemplation. "Two major tremors and two bursts of red light in one day mean something extraordinary must have been born there."

"But those going to that place are either commander-level crocodile pseudo-dragons or high-level mages. Wouldn't it be too dangerous for us with our strength?" Liu Lin said with some concern.

"Let's be careful and not rush in recklessly. We should be fine," Lin Chen said, glancing at Agumon.

Agumon has now advanced to the Warrior level, and after the battle just now, it has probably adapted to its current power. As long as Agumon recovers, Lin Chen believes that with the right evolution, Agumon will evolve into Greymon, and not just in a temporary state.

Liu Lin sensed a strange confidence from Lin Chen's words. Although she didn't know why, she subconsciously chose to believe Lin Chen.

"Okay." Liu Lin nodded, turned around and walked to an open space to recover her magic power.

While everyone was recovering, Lin Chen played with the young man's Ice Soul Sword and tried to immerse his mind into it.

Lin Chen was surprised to find that he was not hindered at all and could easily leave his soul imprint on it, forming a magical artifact mark.

"This weak-willed youth didn't even leave a mark. It seems this demon-slaying tool isn't his either. I guess I've snatched a treasure." Lin Chen muttered to himself thoughtfully.

When Liu Lin had fully restored all the magic power in her body, she opened her eyes and saw Lin Chen standing beside her, looking at her with a smile.

Before she could even ask what was going on, Lin Chen handed her the Ice Soul Sword he was holding.

"What are you doing...?"

Before Liu Lin could finish speaking, Lin Chen's voice rang in her ears.

"Sister Lin, this Ice Soul Sword is for you. I tried it out and found that you can leave a magical artifact mark directly inside it."

Liu Lin wanted to refuse, after all, a decent demon-slaying tool would cost hundreds of thousands, while the Ice Soul Sword that the young man with kidney deficiency possessed was obviously extremely powerful and worth at least a million.

"This Ice Soul Sword is clearly ice-based. It's not very useful for a summoner like me, and besides, I don't plan to awaken ice magic as my second magic type."

Looking at Lin Chen's sincere expression, Liu Lin remained silent for a moment before accepting the Ice Soul Sword that Lin Chen handed her.

Just as Lin Chen had expected, Liu Lin easily left her own magical artifact mark on the Ice Soul Sword.

Furthermore, through Liu Lin's experiments, Lin Chen and others discovered that the power contained in this Ice Soul Sword was far more than what the young man with kidney deficiency had demonstrated.

……

In the Poyang Lake wetlands, a vast open space, wisps of crimson flames occasionally rise from the ground.

A dozen or so people were gathered outside the open space. Many of them were seriously injured. The leaders of this group were Sun Yang and Sun Shuang, who had appeared earlier.

Before long, a commotion arose from the crowd, and Sun Yun and Sun Bai walked in from the outside with three of their men.

"You've come at the perfect time. Quickly, give the Ice Soul Sword to your uncle." Sun Yang's face lit up with joy as he looked at the person who had come before him, and he gave the order.

However, Sun Yun remained silent, his whole body trembling, and he did not take out the Ice Soul Sword.

Sun Yang immediately sensed something was wrong. His brows furrowed, his face darkened, and he shouted sharply, "What happened! Where's the Ice Soul Sword?!"

Looking at Sun Yun's appearance, Sun Bai shook his head, stepped forward, and described what had happened.

Snapped!

Sun Yang slapped Sun Yun hard across the face.

Sun Bai was somewhat puzzled: "Patriarch, even if the Ice Soul Sword is temporarily lost, as long as we are fast enough, we can still find it. Moreover, with the strength of the three of us, we can subdue that spirit seed even without the Ice Soul Sword, right?"

Things have changed.

Before Sun Yang could finish speaking, a deafening roar rang out again, and the faces of the subordinates surrounding Sun Yang and his group immediately turned ugly.

"It's here again!"
