“Wait a minute!”

Lin Shen’s eyes flickered, but he wasn’t in a hurry to continue attacking. He smiled and said, “Why? Do you want to admit defeat now?”

The woman’s expression froze. When she recalled what she had just said, a trace of embarrassment and anger flashed in her eyes.

However, the situation wasn’t in her favor. She could only suppress the emotions in her heart and say in a low voice, “Don’t think for one minute that I’m afraid of you. If I really want to fight to the death, I’ll drag you down with me!”

After a pause, she softened her tone slightly and continued,

“But we’re not archenemies. Why fight to the death? I don’t want this glossy ganoderma anymore. How about we stop here?”

Lin Shen laughed and said, “You were the one who attacked first, and you were the one who wanted to stop. Don’t you think you’re asking for too much?”

The woman said in a deep voice, “Then what are you going to do?”

Lin Shen smiled, but his words were extremely cold.

“Just die!”

She was a cultivator master. Since they had formed a grudge, if he didn’t kill her before she recovered from her serious injuries, She would definitely take revenge later.

Although Lin Shen wasn’t afraid of her, being targeted by a cultivator master was still a troublesome problem!

Hearing Lin Shen’s words, the woman looked displeased. She said coldly, “Do you really think I don’t dare to fight you to the death?”

“It’s not like that.”

Lin Shen had no fear on his face as he smiled faintly.

“I just feel that you can’t take me down with you.”

As he spoke, more people suddenly walked out of the surrounding forest.

The woman looked around in shock and was terrified to discover that these people all looked exactly the same as Lin Shen.

There were six of them!

Were they clones or something else?

The woman suppressed her astonishment and said coldly, “Are these clones what you rely on?”

Lin Shen smiled but didn’t say anything. The six clones around him instantly attacked at the same time, charging at the woman with their swords.

The sword light that filled the sky swept out and enveloped the woman like a storm. In the blink of an eye, she was drowned.

As they fought, the woman’s forced calmness was quickly replaced by intense shock.

She suddenly realized that each of these clones actually had a cultivation level that wasn’t inferior to Lin Shen’s!

“What’s going on?”

The woman couldn’t believe it.

As far as she knew, clones were mostly used to interfere with the opponent’s perception in battle. They usually had at most 30% to 40% of the cultivator’s strength.

Only clones condensed from a few cultivation techniques could reach about half the strength of the cultivator.

Such cultivation techniques were all unique divine powers of large sects!

The strength of these clones was almost equal to that of the cultivator. Apart from the difference in Dharma treasures, be it martial techniques or spells, they were all identical. It was simply unheard of!

The woman almost thought that she was under an illusion!

But soon, she had no time to feel shocked.

She almost couldn’t defeat Lin Shen in a one-on-one battle, let alone six against more clones.

Under the siege of the six clones, the woman was immediately in danger and almost lost her life several times.

Even if she wanted to kill Lin Shen at the cost of her own life, she wouldn’t be able to.

As for perishing together with his clones… What was the point?

Thinking of this, the woman could no longer hold it in and shouted, “Wait, stop. You won!”

However, Lin Shen remained unmoved and only looked at her indifferently.

The woman became even more anxious when she saw this. At the critical moment, she finally had a flash of inspiration and said loudly, “I know a place where a thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit is. If you let me go, I’ll tell you where that place is!”

A thousand-year Mystic Essence Wood Spirit!

Lin Shen’s expression finally changed.

So far, the two Mystic Essence Wood Spirits he had captured were only around two to three hundred years old.

They were far inferior to a thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit.

If he could capture the thousand-year-old one, the Mystic Essence Liquid he took out would probably be enough for him to break through to a cultivator master in one go!

Thinking of this, Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel tempted. He got his clones to stop, but they still surrounded the woman to prevent her from escaping.

Once the clones stopped their attacks, the woman finally had a chance to rest. She heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Shen with a look that was hard to describe.

Who would have thought that a dignified cultivator master like her would be forced to beg for mercy from a Bright Aperture Stage cultivator one day?

Lin Shen was in no mood to care about the woman’s complicated emotions. He said calmly, “How did you discover the thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit?”

The woman replied, “I was looking for treasures for my injury when I accidentally discovered it.”

“Then why didn’t you catch it yourself?”

“That Mystic Essence Wood Spirit is very vigilant and cunning. I couldn’t catch it right away and was in a hurry to heal my wound, so I didn’t attack.”

“How do I know you’re telling the truth?”

“I can swear an oath!”

The woman swore an oath without hesitation.

Once a cultivator swore, karma would be established. They couldn’t lie. Once they violated that oath, they would have to pay a huge price.

When Lin Shen heard this, he believed most of the woman’s words.

However, he still shook his head and said, “Although the thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit is precious, it’s not worth me letting you off.”

That was true. Even without the thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit, Lin Shen was confident that he could find enough Mystic Essence Liquid in the remaining time.

Compared to the thousand-year-old Mystic Essence Wood Spirit, the potential trouble of a cultivator master was more worthy of attention.

The woman panicked and hurriedly said, “I can swear that I won’t find trouble with you in the future!”

“It’s not enough.” Lin Shen still shook his head.

Although the oath had a huge restrictive effect on cultivators, once a cultivator made up their minds, it wasn’t impossible to break it—as long as they could bear the heavy price of breaking the oath.

“Then what do you want?” The woman frowned.

Lin Shen glanced at her and suddenly said, “You’re a demon cultivator, right?”

During the fight just now, he had vaguely sensed that the woman’s spiritual essence was different from Wu Ji’s. It had a hint of wildness and was somewhat similar to Wu Luo’s incarnation. Therefore, he had a vague guess about the woman’s background.

As expected, the woman’s expression changed slightly when she heard this. He had guessed correctly.

Seeing this, the woman decided not to hide it anymore. She gritted her teeth and said, “So what if I am?”

Lin Shen smiled and said, “In that case, as long as you sign a soul contract with me, I’ll spare your life!”
