I Have Countless Clones
/ I Have Countless Clones Chapter 41 – 41 Token
41 Token
Without the help of the cat general, Hao Tu was no match for Lin Shen and Clone 3.
While Hao Tu was flustered, Lin Shen activated the Shadows movement technique. In a flash, he instantly appeared behind Hao Tu and struck his back.
With the help of his Pure Yang body, Lin Shen's Blazing Sun Palm was as powerful as one that had reached Perfection. In an instant, a fierce, blazing force transformed into a violent wave that struck out.
Feeling the threat coming from behind him, Hao Tu immediately felt his scalp tingle, and the fear of death instantly enveloped him.
He shouted in shock and anger. Without thinking, he turned around and counterattacked. His five fingers curved into claws that tore through the air and grabbed fiercely at Lin Shen's incoming palm.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shen's strike was only a red herring. He swayed and dodged to the side to avoid Hao Tu's claw. He wouldn't fight Hao Tu head-on at all.
Hao Tu was slightly stunned. Then, he suddenly realized what was about to happen, and his expression changed.
“Damn it!”
Unfortunately, it was too late.
In the next moment, a scorching heat wave suddenly erupted behind him. A scarlet palm struck Hao Tu's back heavily with an incomparable force.
Thump!
Hao Tu felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his body trembled violently as if he had been electrocuted. After that, he flew forward like a cannonball and smashed into the alley wall with a bang!
Instantly, blood splattered and gravel flew everywhere!
Swoosh!
Lin Shen's figure flashed a few times and reappeared in front of Hao Tu. He threw a backhand punch and hit Hao Tu's throat.
Crack!
There was the sound of bones cracking.
Hao Tu's eyes suddenly bulged, and blue veins popped out on his forehead. Unwillingness and despair appeared on his face. In the end, he froze, and his head tilted. He was no longer alive.
Not far away,
the cat general, who had just escaped the joint attack of the three clones, paused. It turned around and took a long look at Lin Shen. Then, it sheathed its sword and slowly dissipated into the air.
Seeing this scene, Lin Shen heaved a sigh of relief.
Compared to the dead Hao Tu, the cat general gave him even more pressure.
After all, it was a Long Breath Stage cultivator. Even with the help of four clones, he didn't have much confidence in defeating it.
Fortunately, he was right. As long as the person who summoned the cat general died, the cat general would naturally disappear.
After calming himself down, Lin Shen retracted his clones and squatted in front of the two corpses. He began to search for them.
He couldn't figure out why these two people had come to ambush him. The only person he remembered who had a conflict with him was already dead, and these two didn't look like they knew the truth and wanted to avenge him.
“Could someone from the black street follow me here because they saw my money and wanted to kill me?”
As soon as this thought appeared, Lin Shen shook his head and rejected it.
He had only bought two boxes of Condensing Liquid on the black street tonight. The total value was no more than 20,000 spirit coins. It was not enough to make two cultivators at the ninth level of the Qi Transformation Stage have wrong ideas.
But if that wasn't the reason, what was?
Lin Shen was confused.
The two attackers didn't have any storage jade plates on them, so they didn't carry many things with them. It didn't take Lin Shen long to search through them. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything that could prove their identities. He only found some spirit coins, which added up to only two to three thousand.
Other than that, there was the token that summoned the cat general.
The token wasn't big, but it was unexpectedly heavy.
Lin Shen looked at it carefully. The token was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. It was about half the size of a palm. There was a colorful picture of a white cat holding a sword engraved on it. It was vivid and lifelike, and the drawing was the cat general he saw just now.
There was also a circle of exquisite stones embedded at the edge of the token. Lin Shen counted and saw there were a total of 19 stones.
There were nine embedded on the left and right sides, and the largest one was in the middle of the token.
“How do I use this token?”
Lin Shen fumbled around for a long time but still couldn't find the trick to using it. Having no choice, he could only put it away and prepare to study it carefully when he had time.
After using the Melting Liquid to melt the corpse and briefly cleaning up the scene, Lin Shen quickly left.
Nothing else happened on the way back. Lin Shen returned home without any incident and heaved a long sigh of relief.
“Unfortunately, I still don't know who those two people were.”
Lin Shen sighed softly.
However, if he was given another chance, he would still kill those two fellows.
Keeping the enemy alive to interrogate them for information was something that could only be done when he had a huge advantage and victory was in his grasp. Even so, he might still fail at the last moment.
At that time, he didn't know the identity and strength of his enemies. The first thing Lin Shen had to consider was protecting his own life.
Then, the cat general left him with no room to hold back.
“Forget it. If they're really after me, we'll meet again in the future. I'll just be more careful next time.”
Lin Shen quickly made up his mind.
However, in his opinion, the two of them were most likely not here for who he really was.
Recalling the killings taking place in the Northern District that Kong Hong had mentioned before, Lin Shen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
A moment later, he came back to his senses and shook his head, putting this matter to the back of his mind for the time being. Instead, he thought about his next arrangements.
“I've already obtained the Condensing Liquid. I shouldn't need any other resources before I reach the ninth level of Qi Transformation. I can focus on cultivating for a while.”
Lin Shen quickly made the arrangement.
Clone 2, who had the talent of God's Jealousy, naturally focused on absorbing the Condensing Liquid to increase its cultivation.
Clone 3, who had the Pure Yang Body, would focus on cultivating the Blazing Sun Palm. He wanted to reach Perfection before the exam.
The remaining two clones focused on cultivating Shadows.
The practicality of Shadows had already been verified in tonight's battle.
If not for Shadows' agility, Lin Shen would have to pay a huge price to kill those two criminals.
The importance of movement techniques in actual combat was obvious!
If he could cultivate Shadows to Proficient or even Mastery realm before the exam, he would be more confident in obtaining outstanding results in the exam!
“If the two clones cultivate with me, I should be able to reach Proficient in more than 20 days. I'm not sure about Mastery, but it's still possible.”
After muttering to himself for a moment, Lin Shen suddenly thought of the battle with the cat general tonight.
The cat's fierce sword technique really gave him a huge pressure.
“It's still too disadvantageous to be unarmed in actual combat.
“However, if I practice weapon-related martial techniques now, it'll slow down the speed of my cultivation. Moreover, they aren't so easy to find.”
Lin Shen thought for a moment and came up with a compromise. That was to cultivate the Physical Enhancement martial technique.
In this way, not only could he temper his body and strengthen his vitality, but he also had the confidence to resist weapon-type martial techniques.
However, there were other problems. Just like weapon-type skills, an ordinary civilian like him had no way of obtaining a suitable Physical Enhancement martial technique.
“A powerful martial technique is still too difficult to find…”
