337: Come together

After the recent clash, Lin Chen had a rough idea of the Man in Green Robe's true combat strength.

Although this Man in Green Robe had not comprehended a Supreme Level Great Dao, the Great Dao Combat Skills and secret arts he mastered were all extraordinary.

They were all Creation Level, initial stage!

Unfortunately, the opponent's basic power level was far inferior to his. Although his Realm was higher than Lin Chen's, his combat strength was no match for Lin Chen!

One must know that Lin Chen, at full power, could instantly kill a late-stage Half-step Eternal Realm cultivator!

Lin Chen was powerful in all aspects: Great Dao, bloodline, Great Dao Combat Skills, body techniques, secret arts... While not absolutely perfect, each aspect, at his current stage, was top-tier!

However, if his Great Dao Combat Skills, body techniques, and secret arts were a level lower, he might not have been his opponent.

"Supreme Level Great Dao, purple-gold bloodline, I am not your opponent..."

At this moment, the Man in Green Robe in the distance sighed, and his body slowly dissipated.

Lin Chen was slightly stunned. He just dissipated on his own?

These Supreme Ranking Prodigies, who knows how many epochs ago they lived? Are they still alive now?

Perhaps, in the future, there will be a chance to meet these former prodigies... *Buzz*—

The next moment, a wave swept over Lin Chen's body.

A figure identical to him instantly appeared beside him.

Hmm?

Lin Chen looked at this figure in horror.

This was not his clone, yet he could feel the immense life aura emanating from the other party's body.

"No need to be surprised, I am your replica. You don't need to worry; I can only exist within this Statue Space..."

It took Lin Chen a long time to recover. The Statue Space's ability to replicate life forms was terrifying!

Moreover, it even possessed independent consciousness, which was equivalent to creating life!

Perhaps... only that supreme existence could achieve such a feat.

Lin Chen looked at the figure before him and nodded slightly. His own figure slowly exited the Statue Space.

From now on, his replica would guard the 10,000th spot on the supreme ranking list!

Outside, when Lin Chen emerged, he immediately felt the entire continent was incredibly quiet.

All the trial-takers looked at him with complex expressions. Those who had mocked him earlier now had flushed faces.

Some trial-takers also had a hint of frantic jealousy in their eyes... Ji Changkong immediately stepped forward to congratulate him.

He hadn't expected Lin Chen to succeed in the challenge, after all, even that monstrous talent at the Mid-stage Half-step Eternal Realm had failed... Only now did he truly realize how terrifying Lin Chen's talent was!

As long as Lin Chen didn't die prematurely, his future was bright.

At the very least, he would reach the Half-step Ancestor Realm!

"Lin Chen, congratulations on successfully challenging the supreme ranking list!"

"I wonder what the combat strength of these Supreme Ranking Prodigies is like. Have they all comprehended a Supreme Level Great Dao?"

Lin Chen smiled and shook his head, saying:

"Brother Changkong, this Supreme Ranking Prodigy did not create a Supreme Level Great Dao, but he mastered Creation Level Great Dao Combat Skills and body techniques, coupled with his high Realm, which is why he was able to ascend the supreme ranking list..."

Ji Changkong's expression was shocked upon hearing this.

Creation Level body techniques and Great Dao Combat Skills?

How heaven-defying must one's comprehension be to create those?

Even if the body techniques might have been learned elsewhere, Creation Level Great Dao Combat Skills could only be self-created!

Because starting from the Emperor Realm, every living being would create their own Great Dao, and each Great Dao was unique!

It contained Great Dao profound meanings suitable for oneself... Wait a minute... Ji Changkong suddenly thought of the crux of the matter.

Such a terrifying peerless prodigy was defeated by Lin Chen, so what about Lin Chen?

Lin Chen's Realm was merely the initial stage of the Half-step Eternal Realm.

And it was the initial stage of the Half-step Eternal Realm after true spirit transformation.

Lin Chen should have had no advantage against that prodigy... Could it be... Ji Changkong suddenly recalled that in the Great Dao Space, Lin Chen had once told him how to create Great Daos above the ultimate level.

"Brother Lin Chen couldn't have..."

"But if that's really the case... it's too difficult... comprehending nine ultimate Great Daos..."

Ji Changkong couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and transmitted a message to Lin Chen, asking:

"Lin Chen, you couldn't have already created a Supreme Level Great Dao, could you?"

Lin Chen glanced at Ji Changkong and smiled, nodding.

Upon receiving the affirmative answer, Ji Changkong instantly froze in place. His face twitched violently, and a monstrous wave of shock had already surged in his heart.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh.

Even knowing how to create a Supreme Level Great Dao, what good was it? Only a very few monstrous talents of Lin Chen's world-shaking caliber could achieve it...

He looked at Lin Chen, his heart stirring. If such a prodigy could help his Ji Family in the future, it would be far easier than him seeking revenge alone!

"Brother Lin Chen, I, Ji Changkong, am also considered a prodigy in the Tiangang Star Field, but compared to you, it's like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon."

"Our acquaintance is also a form of destiny. I present this sacred sword to Brother Lin Chen; I hope Brother Lin Chen will accept it!"

Ji Changkong held the sacred sword and spoke with an expectant look.

Lin Chen immediately refused upon seeing this, saying:

"Brother Changkong, you're being too polite. I've long considered you a brother. Keep the sacred sword; this is an item of your Ji Family Ancestor. Preserve it well."

"We are brothers, and your Ji Family's matters are my matters. I also can't stand the actions of those old geezers."

"Once I break through to Eternal Saint Lord, I will come to the Tiangang Star Field to find you. I think... that day will come very soon."

Ji Changkong's hand, holding the sacred sword, trembled slightly. His eyes were slightly red, and he slowly nodded, then put away the sacred sword.

Just then, several figures with terrifying auras suddenly descended beside Lin Chen and the others.

Lin Chen frowned slightly. He looked up.

The newcomers were all humans, and their cultivation Realm was at least Mid-stage Half-step Eternal Realm!

There were 8 people in total, male and female, including the young man in dark armor who had failed the challenge earlier.

The 8 of them came together, slowly walking towards Lin Chen. The other trial-takers were all shocked by their powerful auras and quickly made way.

Lin Chen looked at the crowd and said calmly:

"What is it, everyone?"

A hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes at this moment. If this group dared to make a move, he would not hesitate to kill them one by one!

However, the imagined battle did not occur.

After these people approached Lin Chen, they all reined in their auras and smiled.

"Brother, don't misunderstand. The few of us came together because we wanted to ask you about the true combat strength of those prodigies on the supreme ranking list, and if there are any techniques to defeat them..."

"We mean no harm."

The speaker was a tall young man. He was handsome and had a cheerful demeanor. The aura he inadvertently revealed made Lin Chen feel a slight tremor in his heart.

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. So, they were treating him as a dungeon guide.

He sneered inwardly.

Each trial-taker only had ten challenge opportunities, and each opportunity was very important.

Among the tens of thousands of trial-takers this time, only these 8 were at the Mid-stage Half-step Eternal Realm, giving them the highest chance of success!

However, they didn't dare to challenge rashly because they weren't sure of the exact strength level of the prodigies on the supreme ranking list... Now that they saw Lin Chen succeed, they immediately had an idea.

He still had nine challenge opportunities, which meant he could probe the true combat strength of Supreme Ranking Prodigies with nine different rankings!

He could even spar with these people outside to make them understand the gap in their combat strength... But why should he do that?

"Sorry, I'm busy."

Lin Chen looked at the crowd and said calmly.

As soon as these words came out, all the trial-takers present were shocked.

The 8 trial-takers' expressions all changed slightly. Their originally smiling faces instantly turned furious.

"Kid, you're too arrogant!"

"Exactly, we're all humans, what's wrong with helping each other?"

"I think he just got lucky; that Supreme Ranking Prodigy happened to be the weakest."

At this moment, the young man in dark armor beside him darkened his face.

What did they mean by "weakest"?

He had been instantly killed by that Man in Green Robe with a long spear in one encounter, without even getting a clear grasp of his true combat strength... Lin Chen's eyes turned cold upon seeing their attitude.

"If you want my help, you can have it!"

"One eternal sacred artifact per person!"

"Otherwise... scram!"
