第260章 不是我鸡仔胆小，是你不给我上

Chapter 260: It's Not That I, Chick, Am a Coward, It's That You Won't Let Me Fight

Lin Fan was almost in tears at this moment. This place was simply no place for humans.

He swung the Eternal Axe in his hand at those black hands. But the dense, endless black hands filled the entire underground palace.

"Damn it, you leave me no choice." At this moment, Lin Fan was caught off guard, but facing danger, he couldn't show weakness; he had to display his dominance.

"Heavenly Sword."

After the beast tide incident in Qingling Prefecture, Lin Fan had condensed his second sword.

And this sword was named by Lin Fan as the "Sword of Benevolence and Righteousness."

The Three Heads and Six Arms Dharma Form instantly appeared, providing all-around defense, while behind him, the "Heavenly Sword" and the "Sword of Benevolence and Righteousness" carried infinite sword intent, severing the attacking black hands.

At this moment, Lin Fan felt much more relaxed, no longer as constrained as before.

"Chick, come out."

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..."

At this moment, Chick emerged from the backpack. Just as it was about to crow proudly, its cute eyes suddenly froze, then it flapped its wings in fright as a black hand shot past from the side.

"Chick, stop crowing, we're fighting..." Lin Fan had now created a vacuum zone around himself. The Three Heads and Six Arms Dharma Form defended the rear, cutting off the black hands, while Lin Fan wielded the Eternal Axe to clear the path ahead.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..."

Chick looked at the surroundings, spread its featherless wings, crowed, then quickly ran on its claws across the ground, leaped up, and jumped into the air.

"Cock-a-doodle..."

In an instant, a red light burst from Chick's body, covering the entire underground palace. The countless black hands twisted and writhed, finally dissipating completely in the red light.

Lin Fan raised his hand slightly to shield his eyes; the red light was a bit dazzling.

When the red light faded and all the black hands had vanished, Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chick, you're amazing." Lin Fan had to admit that if Chick hadn't unleashed its ultimate move, they might not have been able to handle everything.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..." Chick tossed its head, then swaggered over to Lin Fan, leaped onto his shoulder, and rubbed its tiny head against Lin Fan's cheek.

"Alright, I'll credit you with a major achievement today." Lin Fan's previously tense heart relaxed.

Just then, Chick jumped onto Lin Fan's head, raised its head, and crowed a few times, as if expressing that its status had risen again.

Lin Fan rolled his eyes. This chick sure knew how to show off.

"Bang, bang..."

Just as Lin Fan and Chick were showing off, a series of sounds suddenly reached their ears.

The man and the chick looked at the scene before them, then blinked at each other.

The iron chains that had bound the palace were now snapping inch by inch, and the runic marks on the chains gradually dimmed.

"Chick, what did you just do?" Lin Fan turned his head woodenly and asked.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo..." Chick blinked its big, cute eyes and shook its little head, as if saying, "I don't know."

Lin Fan looked at the situation, swallowed hard, and suddenly shouted.

"Chick, let's get the hell out of here!" At that moment, Lin Fan took off running, grabbed Chick, and dashed toward the exit.

Based on his familiarity with tropes, this was when the big boss would appear.

Normally, the appearance of a boss would be exciting, but for Lin Fan, an uninvestigated boss was the most dangerous.

Chick had gotten rid of the black hands, but why did it have to break the chains? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?

"Rumble, rumble..."

The palace, which had been suspended in midair by the chains, now had no restraints and began to descend. The bloodstains on the palace seemed to come to life, emitting a chilling aura.

Lin Fan looked at the exit, just one step away.

Just as he thought he could escape, a giant hand suddenly slapped in from outside.

Seeing the black flames on the giant hand, Lin Fan's heart tightened. It was the Flame Giant.

"Bang..."

"Ding, congratulations, Immortal Demon Body experience increased by one hundred thousand."

Although he wasn't injured, the force sent Lin Fan flying.

When Lin Fan stood up, the Flame Giant had already blocked the entrance, transforming into a black light barrier. The barrier flickered and then turned into a cliff, blocking all exits.

Lin Fan looked around; there was no way out.

"Chick, we're doomed." At this moment, Lin Fan was almost in tears. He frantically searched for a way to escape before the boss inside the palace emerged.

When he found no escape, Lin Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead, a look of sorrow in his eyes.

"Think about it: no matter what, I'm a promising young man. If I fall here today, it would be a loss to the sect and to the entire Eastern Spirit Continent."

For Lin Fan, this was the most heartbreaking moment. But even if he died, he couldn't die without a name.

Then, using his finger as a pen, he wrote on the ground.

"Year 6385 of the Eastern Spirit Continent, Lin Fan, the sixth patriarch of the Holy Demon Sect on the Nameless Peak of the Holy Sect, to prevent the devastation of all living beings, perishes today alongside the evil spirits to ensure peace in the world."

...

Lin Fan looked at the words on the ground and nodded with satisfaction.

"Cock-a-doodle..." At this moment, Chick nudged Lin Fan, as if saying, "What about me?"

Lin Fan glanced at Chick and finally added a line below.

"Pet Chick perishes here."

Then Lin Fan even carved a portrait of Chick.

"Is that enough?" Lin Fan could only use this method to ease his inner tension. Although he didn't know what was inside the palace, he had to prepare for the worst.

Chick couldn't read the words, but when it saw the portrait, it flapped its wings and crowed a few times.

At that moment, Lin Fan stared intently. When the palace landed steadily on the ground, an irresistible aura suddenly burst forth.

Clatter, clatter...

The tiles on the palace fell continuously, and the bloodstains on the palace glowed with an eerie red light, seeping inside.

Lin Fan frowned deeply.

Chick shrank its wings and hid behind Lin Fan in fear.

Cowardly when facing the strong, bold when facing the weak.

That was the motto of Chick's life.

The aura from within the palace was very unsettling. Lin Fan knew this enemy would not be easy to deal with.

"Chick, hide first." Lin Fan patted Chick and said.

Chick trembled and crowed a few times, as if saying, "I, Chick, can handle it."

"Don't hold me back. Go away." Lin Fan kicked Chick a few times.

Chick looked at Lin Fan, turned its back dejectedly, then looked back at Lin Fan with its tiny head, as if saying, "It's not that I, Chick, am a coward; it's that you won't let me fight."

Then Chick scurried away and hid far off, occasionally poking its little head out to watch the situation.
