264: The final chance elimination match!

Lin Chen's martial and physical cultivation had both reached the Nine-Step Emperor Realm level.

This realm, within the Endless Realm, was a hegemonic existence.

Without Great Emperor Realm Experts appearing, Lin Chen was invincible!

As for the Half-Step Emperor Realm, Lin Chen felt he could contend with them using the Taiyi Blade Art.

After all, he had already comprehended the Taiyi Great Dao to the Half-Step Emperor Realm level.

At the very least, he should be able to deal with experts who had just stepped into the Half-Step Emperor Realm.

“Let’s see how much Physical Strength the Extreme Path Blood Burning Art can still amplify.”

This time, Lin Chen’s strength had increased too much; he was eager to know his true combat power!

Boom—

As Lin Chen performed the Body Art, the blood throughout his body began to burn rapidly.

The Extreme Path Blood Burning Art was akin to a desperate technique, capable of unleashing terrifying combat power in a very short time.

Within a few breaths, Lin Chen’s Physical Strength surged to its peak!

He looked at the system panel.

Physical Strength: 1 Yuan Power (1 Yuan Power = 100 trillion Dragon Elephant Power)

Energy Points: 400,000 stones

“1 Yuan Power?”

Lin Chen pondered for a moment before realizing.

This 1 Yuan Power was equivalent to his 1000 trillion Dragon Elephant Power amplified by 10 times!

The Extreme Path Blood Burning Art had decreased from its previous 25-fold amplification to a current 10-fold amplification.

This Yuan Power had very likely reached the Half-Step Emperor Realm level!

“If only I could put it to practical use.”

Having mastered such immense power, Lin Chen wanted to have a good fight!

“Soon…”

Lin Chen slowly reined in his aura, then exited the Origin Chamber.

Now, he just waited for the third trial to begin… After coming out, he found several trial participants, including Ye Shaoyang, meditating in the main hall.

Except for Savage Iron, all these trial participants had condensed a second-tier Gui Markings on their bodies!

Ye Shaoyang had even condensed a third-tier Gui Markings!

Lin Chen shook his head slightly at the sight.

These trial participants only saw the immediate benefits; their future was destined to be one of decline… Ye Shaoyang also noticed Lin Chen.

He stared at Lin Chen for a long time, a glint in his eyes, seemingly realizing that Lin Chen was greatly different from before.

“Nine-Step Emperor Realm?”

Ye Shaoyang was inwardly shocked; only now did he begin to take this young man seriously.

In less than two hours, Lin Chen’s martial arts realm had rapidly advanced to the Nine-Step Emperor Realm level.

He knew about the Origin Chamber; even with a million-fold time acceleration, two hours was only a little over 200 years.

He himself couldn't achieve this in such a short time.

Unless… this young man possessed a powerful treasure!

Thinking of this, Ye Shaoyang immediately became excited.

He stared at Lin Chen with burning eyes, his greed undisguised… Lin Chen naturally sensed Ye Shaoyang’s gaze; he glanced indifferently at the other party, then walked towards Savage Iron.

Under Lin Chen’s suggestion, Savage Iron had not rushed to exchange anything.

Lin Chen handed him the thousand-core ancient lamp, and only then did he exchange for some rare treasures that could stack comprehension.

As for the Origin Chamber, he exchanged for 10 hours, which was a thousand years!

“Go, cultivate well, and when you come out of seclusion, you can withdraw.”

“The later trials are too dangerous; I might not be able to look after you either.”

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Savage Iron was very grateful to Lin Chen.

If not for Lin Chen, he would have died countless times already… “Thank you, sir!”

Savage Iron’s eyes were slightly red; people of the Barbarian race valued emotions the most.

In his heart, he had long regarded Lin Chen as the most important person in his life… Lin Chen waved his hand, then found a spot and sat down cross-legged.

Time flew by, and soon Savage Iron emerged from seclusion.

After ten hours of seclusion in the Origin Chamber, his realm had also broken through to the One-Step Emperor Realm level!

Savage Iron’s talent was actually very strong; it was already extraordinary for him to reach the Emperor Realm in such a short time.

In this, his thousand-core ancient lamp also played a significant role.

If he were normally in the outside world, Savage Iron would have taken at least ten thousand years to break through to the Emperor Realm… Lin Chen secretly left a clone in Savage Iron’s Inner World, and he left the Black Tower with him.

Because he guessed that the old fogeys from those empires and kingdoms would likely cause trouble for Savage Iron.

After all, in this trial, the prodigies from those empires and kingdoms were almost all dead.

For a trial participant from a small kingdom like Savage Iron to survive and even break through to the Emperor Realm, he would definitely be targeted by those old geezers.

With his clone present, as soon as they exited, his clone could take Savage Iron into the sixth layer of space-time… With Savage Iron gone, there were now only 7 trial participants left, including Lin Chen.

Lin Chen’s surging strength brought him strong confidence; he was very much looking forward to the start of the third trial.

Soon, the ten-day adjustment period was over.

The ethereal voice sounded again.

“Trial participants, the Black Tower’s third trial will begin in 10 seconds!”

“Trial participants who wish to withdraw may do so now!”

Lin Chen scanned the other trial participants, and he noticed that those who had condensed Gui Markingss all had a look of madness in their eyes at this moment.

They had no thought of withdrawing… Soon, the countdown ended.

Buzz—

A mysterious power swept over Lin Chen’s body, and his figure instantly disappeared from the main hall.

The next moment, Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes, curiously surveying his surroundings.

Hmm?

All trial participants were together again?

Lin Chen found the other 6 trial participants standing not far away.

It wouldn’t be an Illusionary Fiend again, would it?

Lin Chen immediately swept with his true spirit.

His true spirit, enhanced by the Eye of All-Seeing, was capable of detecting anomalies.

In just a moment, Lin Chen discovered that the trial participants beside him this time were all real.

Then Lin Chen’s true spirit continued to extend outwards, and he found that the place he was currently in was actually on a floating continent.

The continent was very small, only a million kilometers in size.

Around the floating continent, countless light spots shimmered.

He carefully observed these light spots, constantly zooming in, and suddenly he discovered a shocking scene.

These light spots were actually also floating continents!

And on those continents, he could vaguely sense the aura of living beings!

The floating continents were blocked from his true spirit’s prying by a layer of mysterious energy; he couldn't perceive the specific situation on the continents… “Could it be… that the beings on those continents are also trial participants of the Black Tower?”

“Just from other dimensional worlds?”

Lin Chen knew that there were many Black Towers, just like the seed trials; Black Towers existed in many dimensional worlds.

Just as Lin Chen was wondering, the ethereal voice sounded.

“Third Trial: Final Opportunity Elimination Tournament!”

“Each floating continent is a faction; after the trial begins, different factions will be randomly matched to battle!”

“Only by killing all trial participants of the opposing faction can victory be achieved!”

“The faction that achieves 100 victories will advance!”

100 victories? Lin Chen’s expression became solemn.

One must know that beings capable of passing the first two trials of the Black Tower were definitely not simple!

For example, Ye Shaoyang… This was just the trial participants of one Black Tower.

When the base number was amplified, the prodigies of countless dimensional worlds first went through ranking matches to gain entry to the Black Tower, and then were filtered and improved through the first two trials… Lin Chen understood that this third trial would likely be exceptionally difficult!

However… he had no fear!
