376: A fortuitous treasure awaits!

Lin Chen looked at the empty void ahead, his excitement beyond measure.

He did it!

Eternal Realm eighth-level, instant-killing a peak Eternal Saint Lord!

He crossed four Realms!

"What level has my current strength reached... can I fight a Half-step Ancestor Realm?"

This battle gave Lin Chen a completely new understanding of his true combat power.

However, he had no confidence at all in fighting a Half-step Ancestor Realm.

Anything that even slightly touched upon the Ancestor Realm represented a huge difference in life level!

It was like an Emperor Realm Being facing an Eternal Realm mighty being... the most fundamental difference between the two was—immortal substance!

"What about the difference between the Eternal Realm and the Ancestor Realm?"

Lin Chen shook his head slightly.

The Ancestor Realm was too mysterious; although a Half-step Ancestor Realm had only stepped one foot into that Realm, it was not something he could glimpse.

One must know, Eternal Saint Lords were everywhere in the Main World.

The Crimson Blood Star of the Blood Demon Clan alone had at least a million Eternal Saint Lords!

But what about the Half-step Ancestor Realm?

Lin Chen had also soul-searched and enslaved a few Blood Demons, so he knew a thing or two about this.

The elders of the Blood Demon Clan, who were Half-step Ancestor Realm Experts, numbered less than ten thousand in total!

This ratio was too exaggerated!

The Blood Demon Clan wasn't just in places like Crimson Blood Star; there were many other prosperous places similar to Crimson Blood Star!

The number of Eternal Saint Lords in those places was equally exaggerated, totaling hundreds of millions.

With so many Saint Lords, in the end, there were only less than ten thousand Half-step Ancestor Realms... After retracting his thoughts, Lin Chen still prepared to give it a try.

This years pearl was refined by 'Abyss' and could set up combat opponents of the Half-step Ancestor Realm level.

The next moment, he had a thought.

Another figure appeared in the distant sky.

Boom—

As soon as that figure appeared, a terrifying aura instantly brought the entire world to a standstill!

Lin Chen's pupils contracted sharply; that boundless pressure made him feel suffocated.

"The gap... is this big..."

Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Chen canceled this combat confrontation.

The strength of the two sides was not on the same level at all.

From Saint Lord to Half-step Ancestor Realm was a huge leap.

So great that even Lin Chen's strength, capable of instant-killing a peak Saint Lord, couldn't bridge this gap... "I wonder if 'future' me had broken through my current Realm when I watched those future fragments."

Lin Chen recalled some future fragments he had seen back then.

Future him, when facing 68 Eternal Saint Lord level experts.

He tried his best, but ultimately failed.

He still remembered that sentence—Don't give up!

"Let me try my Physical Strength again."

Lin Chen had a thought and set up another opponent.

This time, the opponent's strength was set to the mid-Eternal Saint Lord level.

Then Lin Chen's Physical Strength erupted, and he charged forward.

Boom boom boom—

The Golden Body at the Late Eternal Realm level had extremely abnormal defense and recovery capabilities, and the immortal substance within his Physical Strength was incredibly dense.

When Lin Chen fought, he didn't have to worry about Physical Strength damage at all.

He fought to a draw with this mid-Eternal Saint Lord opponent, with both sides exchanging blows.

After a long time, Lin Chen dismissed the opponent.

His expression shifted slightly as he recalled the details of the battle he had just fought.

"Seventy million Realms of power can only contend with a mid-Eternal Saint Lord."

"It seems there will be a huge leap when the Golden Body breaks through to the Eternal Saint Lord level."

Now Lin Chen was full of confidence for the upcoming battle.

Unless a Half-step Ancestor Realm made a move, he couldn't possibly fail!

After understanding this, Lin Chen differentiated several clones and came to Blue Star.

His main body and the other clones continued to comprehend the Grandmist Great Dao in the years pearl.

The Grandmist Great Dao had now also reached the final stage of the Eternal level.

The basic power level had also been elevated several times, reaching a terrifying height.

Lin Chen wanted to use the remaining time to fully comprehend the Grandmist Great Dao to the perfect state of the Eternal level!

Time flew by, and Lin Chen entered a state of self-forgetfulness; at this moment, he instead released the pressure in his heart.

Outside.

The clone sat cross-legged in the palace left by Old Lei.

At this time, Blue Star only had the clone; the Blue Star Human Race and those other races had all entered the Inner Worlds of his four followers and gone to the Endless Realm.

Suddenly, the clone felt something and stood up.

The next moment, he instantly moved into the cosmic space outside Blue Star.

Rumble—

A huge spaceship emerged from the fifth dimension of space-time.

Then dozens of figures with powerful auras slowly walked out of the spaceship.

The clone watched this scene with a calm expression.

"Just like the future fragments I saw before, it is indeed 68 Eternal Saint Lords."

"13 peak Saint Lords..."

"If that's all there is, this catastrophe doesn't seem so terrifying..."

The clone just watched the many Eternal Saint Lords from afar, his expression very relaxed.

Li Tianchen followed beside a thin old man, and he saw Lin Chen at a glance.

"So strong!"

"What Realm is he in now..."

"How long has it been... how is this possible... it must be those opportunities he obtained in the Black Tower!"

Immediately, a strong feeling of jealousy filled his heart.

Li Tianchen originally thought that after breaking through to the Eternal Realm, he could narrow the gap with Lin Chen, or even surpass him!

But seeing Lin Chen again, the aura emanating from him gave him a suffocating feeling; he couldn't accept it for a moment... At this time, a middle-aged man in a yellow robe walked to the front, he looked at Lin Chen and spoke calmly.

"Are you Lin Chen?"

"You committed too many killings during the Black Tower Trial; if you're smart, hand over the opportunities and treasures you obtained."

"Otherwise... not only will you die, but all your clansmen will be buried with you!"

Lin Chen sneered at his words.

"Hmph~"

"How ridiculous; the Black Tower Trial is inherently a life-and-death trial; their deaths only prove their incompetence!"

Boom—

As soon as Lin Chen said this, many Saint Lords present immediately glared in anger, their auras erupting one by one.

"Why waste so much breath on this kid? Let's just follow what we discussed before and split the opportunities and treasures!"

"This Lin Chen killed my clan's Saint Son; I will be the one to kill him..."

"Heavenly Azure Venerable, I think I should be the one to act; this child Lin Chen cut off my Chen'er's opportunities; only by letting Chen'er personally kill him can he remove his inner demon..."

"..."

Lin Chen listened to their back-and-forth, finding it amusing for a moment.

The next moment, a giant tree radiating endless light instantly appeared in the void.

Immediately, under the shroud of light, the comprehension of all Saint Lords began to increase.

Lin Chen laughed mockingly:

"The opportunities and treasures are here; you can take them and divide them..."

The moment the ancient bodhi tree appeared, the entire void fell into a brief silence, followed by heavy breathing.

"Bodhi... ancient tree?"

"It's actually such a divine object!"

At this moment, the yellow-robed middle-aged man standing at the forefront looked at Lin Chen with a profound gaze, he smiled faintly, and his figure retreated to the rear.

The other Saint Lords, however, were now frantic.

The fastest reacting Saint Lords had already made their move.

They directly teleported next to the ancient bodhi tree.

"It's mine!"

Boom—

These Saint Lords instantly began to fight each other.

The other Saint Lords, seeing this, also joined the battle one after another.

For them, this ancient bodhi tree was their hope for reaching a higher level!

What did it mean to have comprehension increased by a million times?

Historically, any Saint Lord who obtained the ancient bodhi tree eventually broke through to the Half-step Ancestor Realm and then went to the mysterious Main World... These Saint Lords claimed to be seeking revenge, but in reality, they had intended to seize Lin Chen's opportunities and treasures from the very beginning.

And this ancient bodhi tree was what they longed to obtain!
