378: Master Lei has arrived!

Xuantian Divine Palace?

Lin Chen's heart had sunk to the bottom at this moment; he had never heard of this force.

He hadn't seen any Half-step Ancestor Realm level existences appear in the future fragments he watched before.

"Could it all be predetermined... unchangeable?"

During this time, he had painstakingly ventured into Crimson Blood Star several times and cultivated for hundreds of epochs in the years pearl.

Only then did he finally possess the strength to kill a Peak Saint Lord!

But in the end, he still couldn't escape this calamity... Lin Chen looked at the illusory figure, an boundless rage surging in his heart, and he slowly spoke, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Kneel? Are you worthy?"

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man and Bone deep in the distance were stunned.

They hadn't expected Lin Chen to dare to contradict a Half-step Ancestor Realm level expert face to face.

At this moment, a slightly ancient voice sounded.

The voice shook the soul, containing terrifying pressure.

"To be able to easily kill a Peak Saint Lord at the Eternal Ninth Level, I really underestimated you..."

"You are a key focus of 'Yuan' and 'Hao', so I dare not kill you."

"However, the slaughter you've caused this time is too great; this ancient bodhi tree will serve as your punishment."

Boom—

The ancient bodhi tree, radiating endless light in the Void Realm in the distance, slowly flew towards the illusory figure.

Seeing this, the rage in Lin Chen's heart could no longer be suppressed, and he instantly erupted.

"What the hell are you pretending to be here for!"

"Punish my ass!!"

Boom—

More than twenty thousand Clones appeared, quickly forming a battle array, and a terrifying aura erupted from the five-colored long saber in Lin Chen's hand.

A dazzling saber light slashed towards the illusory figure.

"Lin Chen, how dare you!"

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man beside him roared, but a sneer formed in his heart.

To dare to attack a high and mighty Half-step Ancestor Realm could only be described as utterly foolish.

Originally, this Genius youth still had a chance to live.

But now that he had angered a Half-step Ancestor Realm, even if Lin Chen was a Genius, no one would say anything if he were killed.

Oh?

The illusory figure let out a soft exclamation.

He looked at the more than twenty thousand Clones behind Lin Chen, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The next moment, he slowly raised a finger.

"Break!"

His finger lightly tapped on the saber light that Lin Chen had unleashed with all his might.

Bang—

The saber light shattered, and then that finger pierced through layers of space, touching Lin Chen's body.

Lin Chen only felt an unimaginable power attack come.

His body crumbled inch by inch, then turned into a mist of blood.

More than twenty thousand Clones also instantly turned into dust.

However, the illusory figure held back with that finger; Lin Chen's true spirit body was not harmed.

"Speaking disrespectfully, I'll teach you a lesson..."

"This Universe never lacks Geniuses; before you grow up, you must learn to endure."

The illusory figure hovered in the Universe's starry sky, looking at Lin Chen and speaking in a calm tone.

As a Body Cultivator, Lin Chen's Physical Body recovery ability was Heaven-Defying.

With his true spirit intact, he recovered his Physical Body within a few breaths.

He looked at the illusory figure in the sky and burst into laughter.

Then, an invincible belief rose from Lin Chen's heart.

He roared with icy eyes:

"The humiliation of today, I will return a hundredfold in the future!"

"If you have the guts, kill me now, otherwise... one day I will surely kill you!"

The next moment, Lin Chen's figure slowly disappeared.

A hint of surprise appeared in the illusory figure's ancient, unchanging pupils.

He subconsciously wanted to deduce Lin Chen's whereabouts.

But no matter how he tried, he couldn't deduce it.

"Did he go to a special place? Or does he have some treasure that shields Karma perception?"

Just as he was wondering, this Void Realm was suddenly torn apart by a large hand.

A figure shrouded in the power of thunder descended, his terrifying aura even surpassing that of the Xuantian Divine Palace Master.

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man and Bone deep instantly widened their eyes.

"This is... Half... Half-step Ancestor Realm!"

Bone deep's heart also trembled at the sight.

In the past, he couldn't even meet such legendary existences.

He hadn't expected two to appear consecutively today.

"Xuantian! How dare you touch my man, who gave you the courage! Hmm?"

The face of the figure shrouded in thunder gradually became clear at this moment.

If Lin Chen were here, he would surely recognize him; it was none other than Old Lei, who had gone to the Main World!

"Lei Wuji, I didn't kill him; I just gave him a small punishment."

"You should stop making trouble here."

Old Lei scoffed at the words, saying:

"Don't think I don't know what you're plotting. You cut off my Opportunity back then, and today you want to cut off Lin Chen's cultivation path. With me here, I'd like to see who dares!"

"Hand over the ancient bodhi tree, otherwise... I will kill you today!"

The illusory figure chuckled at the words.

"Back then, you didn't listen to advice and forcibly killed 'Ying's' only blood relative; you can only blame yourself for provoking someone you shouldn't have."

"As for Lin Chen... I'll tell you, because of you, he will never reach the Main World!"

Boom—

Old Lei instantly went berserk at the words, and he violently punched the illusory figure.

"I remember I just said not long ago that the grudges between me and you all should not affect Lin Chen."

"It seems you didn't listen at all!"

"Fine... today I will kill this Clone of yours!"

"Go back and tell him that one day I will personally come and kill him too!"

The illusory figure was no longer as calm as before.

He also erupted with aura and fought with Old Lei.

"Lei Wuji, I thought you would sober up during these years of dormancy, but you're still the same, utterly foolish!"

"Just you? Hahaha..."

Boom boom boom—

The battle at the Half-step Ancestor Realm level was too terrifying.

Even the aftershocks alone turned vast swathes of stars into dust.

Fortunately, Old Lei intentionally protected Blue Star.

Otherwise, Blue Star would have long ceased to exist.

Boom—

The next moment, Old Lei suddenly dragged the illusory figure into another space-time.

Only the Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man and Bone deep were left standing in the Void Realm, looking at each other.

"This..."

Bone deep felt like dying at this moment.

If he had known that a Half-step Ancestor Realm stood behind Lin Chen, how would he have dared to snatch Lin Chen's Opportunity?

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man also had a drastic change in expression at this moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

Because he knew some inside information.

He knew that his Palace Master held an extremely high position in the legendary Main World.

And he was also a confidant of that great existence... Just then.

A figure instantly appeared before the two of them.

The newcomer wore black battle armor and wielded a five-colored long saber.

It was Lin Chen, who had exited Dreamland Traversal earlier!

"You... Lin Chen... you weren't..."

Bone deep cried out in terror, then turned and fled without hesitation.

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man beside him also had a drastic change in expression.

"Lin Chen... it's all a misunderstanding..."

Lin Chen said coldly:

"I, Lin Chen, never suffer losses. From now on, anyone from your Xuantian Divine Palace, I will kill every time I see them!"

"Today, it starts with you!"

Boom—

Lin Chen instantly erupted, unleashing a hundred saber lights in a row.

The Yellow-Robed Middle-aged Man and Bone deep turned into ashes amidst the saber lights.

Lin Chen then collected their treasures, his expression grave as he looked towards the ninth layer of space-time.

There, two terrifying figures were locked in a great battle!
