109: reject

In a villa at the Human Federation’s military headquarters in the capital, Lin Chen’s figure slowly appeared.

He was just about to look for Bai Hong when he suddenly realized Bai Hong wasn’t on Blue Star.

His Mental Energy sensed Matthew and Lu Hui were in the command center of the headquarters.

Most of the high-ranking Martial Emperors of the Human Federation were present.

Immediately, Lin Chen teleported and appeared beside Lu Hui.

Everyone was startled to see Lin Chen, then their faces broke into smiles.

Lin Chen was now a legend for humanity on Blue Star!

He had, by his own power, helped the Human Federation overcome a crisis of extinction.

Although Lin Chen was still very young, the human high-ranking officials present were all very respectful towards him, with no hint of looking down on him.

“Lin Chen, you’re back. Come, sit here.”

Lu Hui said with a smile.

At this moment, Lu Hui was filled with relief and pride.

He had thought highly of Lin Chen ever since Lin Chen participated in the martial arts examination trials.

Although he had barely taught Lin Chen anything, merely providing Lin Chen with some conveniences for his cultivation.

But just the fact that he was Lin Chen’s teacher made his prestige in the Human Federation second only to Bai Hong and Old Li.

Lin Chen nodded slightly and sat beside Lu Hui.

“Teacher Lu, what are you all doing here…?”

“Why haven’t I seen Senior Bai?”

Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

Lu Hui chuckled at his words.

“Commander-in-Chief Bai went into seclusion by himself; he’s preparing to break through to Martial God.”

“The reason we’re gathered here this time is because something big happened in the Azure Cang Realm!”

Bai Hong was about to break through? Lin Chen’s heart surged with joy, feeling happy for the Human Federation.

Something big in the Azure Cang Realm? He had been in the Azure Cang Realm all this time, how did he not know?

“Teacher, what big event?”

Lu Hui paused, then continued.

“Our scouts found out an hour ago.”

“The Nether Spirit Clan was annihilated by a mysterious powerful individual.”

“We are currently discussing whether we can take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits.”

Everyone in the command center already knew this news, and at this moment, their faces were still filled with excitement.

Lin Chen, however, was stunned at the words.

He rubbed his nose, thinking, *Aren’t they talking about me?*

“Um… Teacher Lu.”

“You don’t need to discuss it.”

“I’m the one who annihilated the Nether Spirit Clan, and I have some things to give you.”

Then Lin Chen handed Lu Hui a spatial ring.

Just then, he noticed the entire command center was unusually quiet.

Everyone stared at him like clay figures, their eyes filled with disbelief.

“Lin… Lin Chen… what did you say?”

“You annihilated them?”

Lu Hui’s eyes widened, and he grabbed Lin Chen’s arm, shaking him as he asked.

“Teacher, you’ll know if you look at this spatial ring.”

Lin Chen smiled slightly, and slowly said.

Lu Hui subconsciously took the spatial ring and probed it with his Mental Energy.

“This… this is!”

Lu Hui was utterly shocked by the resources inside the spatial ring!

His mouth hung wide open, and he stood dumbfounded for a long time, then his expression became excited.

He slapped Lin Chen’s shoulder hard.

“Good! Good! Good!”

“Lin Chen, I thank you on behalf of the Human Federation. With these resources, our human powerhouses will experience explosive growth!”

Everyone looked at Lu Hui’s series of excited words, all becoming curious.

“Old Lu, what’s in that spatial ring?”

Matthew, also curious, probed with his Mental Energy.

Inside the spatial ring were mountains of battle armor, cultivation techniques, spiritual treasures, exotic fruits, various materials… “So many resources!!”

“Lin Chen… are these…?”

Matthew asked in shock.

Lin Chen smiled slightly and nodded.

Seeing this, Matthew took a deep breath, then also became ecstatic.

He directly projected the resources from the spatial ring for everyone to see.

Hiss—

Gasps of cold air came one after another.

Everyone looked at Lin Chen, all with excited expressions; the human race was about to rise!

“Teacher Lu, you can decide how to distribute these resources. I plan to go check out the other Peak Races.”

“I will leave three clones to guard the three Super Bases.”

Lu Hui’s expression became serious at his words.

“Lin Chen, Martial God powerhouses are not like Mentalists. The other Four Peak Races are not that simple.”

Lin Chen smiled faintly and slowly spoke.

“Teacher Lu, I am very strong now, don’t worry. If we don’t take the initiative to attack, one day, these alien races will come knocking on our door!”

His tone was filled with an invincible confidence!

“Lin Chen, do you need our help? We also want to go.”

At this moment, everyone was infected, and they all wanted to fight alongside Lin Chen.

Lin Chen surveyed everyone, a faint smile on his face.

“You only need to guard the human race’s rear. Leave the rest to me!”

Everyone nodded solemnly at his words.

Then Lin Chen instantly disappeared. He first returned to the villa, then directly activated his dream travel.

This time, he arrived in the Northern Region’s Endless Sea, which was closest to Super Base No. 3.

After several spatial shuttles, Lin Chen arrived at Super Base No. 3. He left three Mental Energy clones and then directly teleported to the Central Region via the teleportation gate!

“Among the remaining Four Peak Races, the Three-Eyed Clan is the weakest. You’re next!”

Lin Chen’s eyes revealed killing intent, and he began to rush towards the Three-Eyed Clan’s territory at full speed.

An hour later, Lin Chen arrived at the Three-Eyed Clan’s territory.

At this moment.

A female figure suddenly appeared above Super Base No. 1 in the Eastern Region.

She wore light blue battle armor, with a red mark between her eyebrows, and the aura she naturally exuded filled the human race in the entire base with fear.

Lin Chen’s clone also discovered this powerful woman immediately.

*A Blood Phoenix Clan powerhouse! Judging by her aura, she seems to be in the Half-Step Transcendence Realm!*

Lin Chen’s heart skipped a beat.

He directly transmitted a message to the general in charge of this base, telling him to organize an evacuation if the situation turned sour.

And he himself instantly appeared in the sky.

Lin Chen looked at the stunning woman, his expression vigilant.

This clone of his could only use the Chaos Saber Art once, but he didn’t know if it could defeat her.

“Senior, are you from the Blood Phoenix Clan? Your esteemed presence today is an honor, and I apologize for not welcoming you sooner!”

Lin Chen was neither humble nor arrogant, smiling slightly as he slowly spoke.

Huang Xinlan, seeing this, couldn’t help but look at this human youth in a new light.

This youth gave people a very steady feeling, without the arrogance of a peerless genius.

Then she also reined in her aura and smiled faintly.

“You don’t need to be nervous. I am here today by order of our clan leader of the Azure Cang Realm lineage, specifically to recruit you.”

Recruit?

Lin Chen was puzzled.

“Don’t be in a hurry to refuse. You are already at the late-stage Martial God, and the next realm is the Transcendent Realm.”

“The Transcendent Realm is already the limit of the mortal world. To continue increasing your strength, you must go to the Endless Realm.”

“Competition in the Endless Realm is extremely fierce. It will be very difficult for someone who has just reached the Transcendent Realm to establish themselves in the Endless Realm.”

“Our clan leader thinks highly of you and wants to invite you to join our Blood Phoenix Clan’s forces!”

“Our Blood Phoenix Clan is one of the three hegemon-level forces in the Lingxiao World, with an Invincible Venerable overseeing our clan!”

Invincible Venerable!

Lin Chen was inwardly shocked.

The Venerable Realm is divided into nine stages, and the Invincible Venerable Realm refers to terrifying powerhouses who are at the ninth stage of the Venerable Realm and have mastered ultimate law combat techniques!

Such powerhouses can even battle those in the Dao Realm!

For a moment, Lin Chen was tempted. The ancestral lands of the Five Peak Races were merely small worlds.

Super forces like the Blood Phoenix Clan, which dominated a medium-sized world, controlled countless small worlds!

Their racial branches were even spread throughout the myriad worlds!

However, after a brief thought, Lin Chen dismissed this idea.

While a large force could give him a higher starting point, it also came with many restrictions.

He didn’t want the secret of his system to be exposed!

“Thank you for your clan leader’s kind offer, but I am not considering joining other forces for now.”

Huang Xinlan was stunned at his words, then sneered lightly.

*He refused?*

*So all that composure before was just an act.*

At this moment, in her eyes, this human youth was incredibly arrogant and conceited.

Well, she hadn’t thought highly of this small human genius anyway… She turned and left quickly without looking back.

“A reminder, the Black Dragon Clan is also one of the three hegemon forces of the Lingxiao World.”

“The current clan leader of the Black Dragon lineage in the Azure Cang Realm is in the Transcendent Realm, and he will soon come to seek revenge on you.”

Seeing the Blood Phoenix Clan powerhouse’s displeased expression, Lin Chen also sighed slightly.

“Thank you for the reminder. If I ever decide to join a force in the future, I will definitely choose the Blood Phoenix Clan.”

Huang Xinlan snorted coldly at his words, and her figure slowly disappeared.

At this moment.

In the Three-Eyed Clan’s territory.

Lin Chen’s main body also knew everything.

“Transcendent Realm, huh?”

“It seems the Three-Eyed Clan is destined for annihilation today!”

Lin Chen urgently needed energy points now!
