324: Delivery coming?
"Hm? Is that Brother Changkong?"
Lin Chen looked up, puzzled.
He noticed that Ji Changkong was incredibly disheveled at the moment, clearly having gone through a major battle.
"Strange, with Brother Changkong's strength, someone actually managed to push him to such a state..."
Immediately, he teleported and appeared in front of Ji Changkong.
Upon seeing Lin Chen, Ji Changkong quickly approached him.
"Brother Lin Chen, I'm afraid I'll be causing you trouble."
"I'm being hunted by Chen Zishan. Let's hide quickly. Is your treasure for concealing aura still usable?"
Lin Chen looked at the anxious Ji Changkong, slightly stunned.
Chen Zishan?
Who is this?
He hadn't had much contact with the other trial-takers, so he didn't know that this Chen Zishan was the Chubby Youth who had once stolen an Eternal Artifact from him.
However, later, under the threat of his clone, the other party returned that weapon.
"Brother Lin Chen, there's no time to explain, he's coming!" Ji Changkong said with a worried expression.
He came here to find Lin Chen, hoping for Lin Chen's treasure that concealed aura. He didn't expect Lin Chen to be able to defeat Chen Zishan.
After all, Lin Chen's martial arts Realm was only at the Eighth Stage of Great Emperor.
Even if he possessed Half-step Ancestor Realm level bloodline power, he couldn't kill Chen Zishan, who had acquired immortal matter... It could be said that immortal matter was too heaven-defying!
Once immortal matter was controlled, below Half-step Eternal Realm, no matter how powerful the attack, it would be useless!
Unless it was like Lin Chen's Spirit Slaying Art, with a trace of immortal characteristic attached to the attack.
Lin Chen smiled faintly, stepped forward, and patted Ji Changkong's shoulder, saying, "Brother Changkong, there's no need to panic. They're already here."
Ji Changkong looked at Lin Chen's confident expression and sighed slightly. He understood that the upcoming battle was inevitable.
The two of them stood there quietly, waiting.
A few breaths later, three figures successively descended upon this star.
Their auras erupted, and their eyes were filled with fervent desire.
"Interesting, you actually didn't hide."
"Ji Changkong, do you know about the true opportunity in this Great Dao Space?"
"We are of the same human race, it's not good to hog all the good stuff..."
"That's right, the opportunity belongs to everyone, you can't monopolize it. I advise you to be sensible, don't force our hand!"
The three spoke one after another, their tones full of threat.
Ji Changkong's expression was incredibly solemn at this moment.
He hadn't expected even these three to come.
"This is real trouble now... No, I can't implicate Brother Lin Chen."
Ji Changkong thought to himself, immediately sending a voice transmission to Lin Chen:
"Brother Lin Chen, this matter started because of me and shouldn't implicate you. I'll hold them off for a bit, you find a place and use your treasure to hide!"
Lin Chen couldn't help but look at Ji Changkong with new eyes upon hearing this.
When people experience great life-and-death calamities, they always desperately cling to a lifeline. As long as they can live, anything is possible.
He patted Ji Changkong's shoulder again, giving him a reassuring look.
Then, with a flash, he appeared before the three men, a terrifying killing intent surging forth.
"Within ten breaths, leave your Eternal Artifacts and get out of here, otherwise... die!"
As soon as Lin Chen said this, everyone fell silent.
Including the more than 80 trial-takers who were currently observing the situation.
"Is this Lin Chen an idiot? Just hand over the opportunity, why bother pretending for the sake of face?"
"Well, this is good, there's a show to watch now..."
Ji Changkong stood behind Lin Chen, activating his golden bloodline power once again.
He hadn't expected Lin Chen to be so reckless, but there was nothing he could do now. He could only fight to the death... "Ten breaths? Tsk tsk tsk... Lin Chen, you're really trying to make me laugh."
"We gave you face, and you really took advantage of it. I'd like to see what you can do to us after ten breaths."
The demonic youth with a vertical eye between his brows said with disdain.
The other two also looked at Lin Chen as if he were an idiot.
The few of them were all dragons among men, each at the Ninth Stage of Great Emperor Realm, powerful in strength. How could they be scared by a single sentence from Lin Chen?
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, silently counting the time.
After a long while.
"Ten breaths are up. If that's the case... be more careful in your next life!"
The next moment, a purple-gold light soared into the sky, and Lin Chen's physical aura rapidly climbed to its peak.
The three men's expressions instantly changed drastically, and the terrifying pressure filled their hearts with dread.
"Not good! All together!"
The three of them were all battle-hardened prodigies, rich in combat experience.
Immediately, their auras erupted, and the demonic youth with a vertical eye between his brows even activated his golden bloodline power.
Many trial-takers were shocked.
"Such powerful pressure!"
Although they were far from this place, the pressure from Lin Chen and the others' erupting auras directly radiated throughout the entire Great Dao Space!
"Charge!"
The demonic youth roared, taking the lead and charging towards Lin Chen.
The two behind him also unleashed combat techniques, striking at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen remained calm throughout, slowly raising one hand, then joining his palms together like a blade.
Tai Yi Immortal Severing!
Boom β
A terrifying grey-white blade light appeared.
Lin Chen had already activated the Unity Secret Art; his physical combat power had reached the Half-step Eternal Realm early stage.
This strike was augmented by a 50,000-fold power increase from his physical Realm.
This didn't even include the 12,000-fold Great Dao power increase from the Genesis-level combat technique itself!
At this moment, heaven and earth were silent, everything frozen in this instant.
Only a grey-white blade light streaked across the sky, and the three, including the demonic youth, cried out in terrified screams.
From the moment Lin Chen drew his blade, they began to regret.
Unfortunately, that strike was too fast!
Bang, bang, bang!
As the blade light swept through, the entire void instantly shattered, and the three human trial-takers at the Ninth Stage of Great Emperor had no power to resist. Their bodies directly turned into nothingness!
Subsequently, their intrinsic worlds were also destroyed by this single strike.
Buzz β
Ten streaks of light appeared, and Lin Chen waved his hand, collecting them all.
These streaks of light were precisely the Eternal Artifacts of those three individuals.
Lin Chen's face was filled with wild joy; he now had 17 Eternal Artifacts!
"Sure enough, murder and arson lead to riches..."
"Did these three come to deliver goods to him?"
Lin Chen glanced at the trial-takers outside, his eyes burning with intense fervor.
"I'm not asking too much if I ask each of them for one Eternal Artifact, am I..."
The trial-takers outside were all terrified at this moment; Lin Chen's gaze seemed to penetrate layers of space, chilling them to the bone.
Just as Lin Chen was planning how to trick the trial-takers out of their treasures, a terrifying figure descended.
It was Chen Zishan, who had arrived late!
Chen Zishan looked at Ji Changkong in the distance with an expression of intense anger, wishing he could flay him alive.
Earlier, on his way here, he had actually been observing the battle situation here.
He hadn't expected Lin Chen's bloodline power to be so strong, and the combat technique this young man used was terrifyingly powerful as well.
However, that still couldn't threaten him.
"Very good! Very good!"
"Kid, your purple-gold bloodline is quite interesting. If you hand it over, I'll spare your life later, how about it?"
"Oh, right, and the true opportunity here must have been discovered by you too."
"My patience is limited. I'll give you ten breaths to consider."
Lin Chen was slightly stunned; wasn't that his line?
"Lin Chen, be careful! This fat guy's true spirit has already evolved a trace of immortal matter; he's impossible to kill!"
Half-step Eternal Realm early stage?
Lin Chen's expression was shocked upon hearing this. He hadn't expected someone to break through to the Half-step Eternal Realm so quickly.
He naturally remembered this fatty; he had previously stolen a treasure from him, only to return it in the end.
He hadn't expected the other party's combat power to be so terrifying.
Had he been hiding it all along, or had he just broken through?
After regaining his thoughts, Lin Chen chuckled softly.
For him, even the Half-step Eternal early stage was not enough to contend with him!
Immediately, he flipped his hand, and a long blade appeared in his grasp, a surge of battle intent rising to the sky!
