404: Lu Xinghui's revenge!

The place where Lin Chen was currently located was a palace specially refined by the Ancestral Land for Saint Lord Level Prodigies.

This palace possessed a certain ability to shield against Karma perception.

Coupled with the quasi-Ancestor Artifact grade years pearl that Lin Chen possessed, which could also shield against Karma perception, the Human Race High Command was still unaware of his Breakthrough to the Half-step Ancestor Realm.

But as soon as he stepped out of the palace, he would immediately be perceived by the Human Race Experts who had a Karma connection with him.

A method capable of shielding against the Karma perception of an Ancestor Realm Expert was truly Heaven-Defying.

All Karma in the world could hardly escape the perception of an Ancestor Realm Expert.

Even thinking about matters related to a certain Ancestor Realm Expert might lead to being perceived by them... Lin Chen was quite worried at first, fearing the System wouldn't be able to deduce it.

But after he simply informed the System of his thoughts, the System instantly began its deduction.

Finally, after spending a few months, it deduced a set of Battle Technique related to concealing aura—Karma Concealment Art (Supreme).

Lin Chen understood after taking a brief look at the introduction of the Battle Technique.

After this set of Battle Technique reached Perfection, it could not only shield his own Karma aura but also imitate the Karma aura of others.

This had the same wonderful effect as One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, except the imitation ability of One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones could only be executed by the Clone, not the main body.

Next, Lin Chen spent some more time raising this set of Battle Technique to Perfection.

Subsequently, he adjusted his own Qi aura to Saint Lord Middle Stage through the Karma Concealment Art.

"I actually have another year to rest in the Ancestral Land, but staying here now is meaningless."

"After I plunder the Crimson Blood Star, I'll return to continue my Breakthrough!"

Lin Chen had a premonition that this trip to the Crimson Blood Star would definitely yield astonishing rewards!

Boom—

Lin Chen soared directly into the sky, heading straight for the exit of the Ancestral Land.

The moment Lin Chen stepped out of the palace.

In the Treasure Hall, the old man wearing a moon-white robe paused.

He looked in Lin Chen's direction with disbelief.

"He's already reached the Half-step Ancestor Realm?"

"And he learned a Karma concealment technique. Interesting..."

'Gu' put down the book in his hand. A faint light flickered in his pupils, as if he was deducing something.

He cultivated the Great Dao of Destiny, and Lin Chen's Karma concealment technique had no effect on him.

After a long time, he murmured with a complex expression:

"It seems this time... my Human Race is headed for turmoil..."

Lin Chen had now arrived at the Ancestral Land's exit, having long since clearly understood the information regarding the Ancestral Land.

The Ancestral Land allowed free entry and exit.

However, strict inspections were required for entering and exiting the Ancestral Land. The purpose of this was to prevent infiltration by the Guixu Clan.

The Guixu Clan had many branches, and their abilities were all strange and mysterious.

For example, the Illusion Clan, one of the three main lineages, possessed the ability to mimic any life form. This Clan was also the one that inflicted the greatest casualties on the Human Race.

The Illusion Clan excelled at infiltrating the Human Race Faction, then seeking opportunities for mass slaughter... After Lin Chen explained his destination, he directly stepped into a teleportation array.

This teleportation array was also constructed by 'Hao'.

It allowed all sentient beings to travel back and forth to the Tenth Layer Spacetime.

After all, to enter the Human Race Ancestral Land, one must first be able to enter the Tenth Layer Spacetime.

Buzz—

The teleportation array lit up, and when Lin Chen reappeared, he was already on a planet.

This planet was the ancestral star of the Human Race in the Main World, named Sky Dome Star.

The Spiritual Qi on Sky Dome Star was extremely dense, and the planet's diameter was a thousand times that of Crimson Blood Star!

The Experts of the Human Race Faction, along with their Family descendants, basically lived on this planet.

Because this planet was the safest planet in the Human Race territory!

Sky Dome Star was the origin of the Human Race.

Countless epochs ago, the first Ancestor Realm Expert of the Human Race was born on this planet.

That Ancestor Realm Expert was named 'Gu'... Just as Lin Chen arrived at Sky Dome Star, in an incredibly magnificent palace in the Ancestral Land.

A young man wearing purple-gold battle armor was gloomily staring at a light screen.

The screen displayed the scene of Lin Chen arriving at Sky Dome Star... This young man in purple-gold battle armor was Lu Xinghui!

Lu Xinghui stared intently at Lin Chen on the screen. His Qi and blood surged continuously, and the killing intent in his heart spread out uncontrollably.

The last life-or-death battle with Lin Chen had nearly shattered his Dao Heart, leaving him almost permanently disheartened.

Not only did Lin Chen defeat his main combat Clone by crossing realms, but he also claimed all of his treasures.

Especially the legendary quasi-Ancestor Artifact bestowed upon him by 'Ying', which Lin Chen had actually taken and sold... Originally, he had planned to use his status to reclaim it from the Treasure Hall.

But when he learned that the one who purchased the nether shadow sword was 'Gu', one of the Human Race's nine great Ancestor Realm Experts, he immediately collapsed... At this moment, another figure with a terrifying aura was seated cross-legged in the hall.

This figure was shrouded in black light and shadow, making his face indiscernible.

Sitting there, it seemed as if the entire world revolved around him, and all Laws and Great Daos bowed in submission.

"Hui'er, do not let external possessions affect your Dao Heart."

A majestic and ethereal voice echoed in the hall.

Lu Xinghui, whose emotions were about to spiral out of control, shuddered and gradually regained his composure.

"Thank you, Revered Master, for your guidance!"

A hint of his former confidence returned to Lu Xinghui's eyes.

When he looked at the light screen again, he no longer held that frantic expression.

That terrifying figure was 'Ying', one of the nine Ancestral Realms of the Human Race, and also the Revered Master of the person of heavenly mandate, Lu Xinghui!

"Lin Chen... is also a variable."

"He is harder to deal with than Lei Wuji; I cannot see his future..."

"However, that is not important..."

"Hui'er, you shall go with Xuantian to Sky Dome Star, personally slay Lin Chen, and recast your Dao Heart!"

Lu Xinghui was stunned upon hearing this, followed immediately by wild joy.

"Revered Master, if we go so blatantly, won't it..."

'Ying' gave an evil laugh and said:

"Hui'er, you are the one chosen by the Supreme Heavenly Dao."

"You are destined to achieve the Ancestor Realm in the future."

"Lin Chen's talent certainly seems stronger than yours right now, but his future is not guaranteed to achieve the Ancestor Realm."

"What the Human Race needs now is an Ancestor Realm, not a Genius whose future is uncertain!"

"Go ahead without worry. Even if those few discover it, they will just turn a blind eye..."

Lu Xinghui's eyes gradually brightened, and that invincible confidence from the past returned.

He looked at Lin Chen on the screen, the corner of his mouth slightly curving.

"Lin Chen, blame your weak background..."

On the other side, Lin Chen did not know that he had been monitored since the moment he left the Ancestral Land.

After flying to an uninhabited area, he immediately exited the Dreamland Traversal state.

A few breaths later.

Boom—

A powerful aura descended.

"Huh? He was just here a moment ago. Where is he?"

A low voice sounded.

If Lin Chen were here, he would definitely recognize that the speaker was Xuantian, the Palace Revered Master of the Xuantian Divine Palace in the Primordial World—that Half-step Ancestor Realm Expert!

He was the one who had tried to seize Lin Chen's ancient bodhi tree back then.

His name was Xuantian, and he belonged to 'Ying's faction. He was also a Half-step Ancestor Realm Expert who originated from 'Ying's home world, highly valued by 'Ying'.

Lu Xinghui was beside Xuantian, his eyes gloomily staring at the spot where Lin Chen had vanished.

"Young Lord, this must be some kind of evasion secret technique. Lin Chen has already left Sky Dome Star."

Xuantian sensed briefly and slowly said to Lu Xinghui.

His tone was respectful, and his expression was full of flattery.

As 'Ying's sole Personal Disciple, Lu Xinghui held an honored position within the entire 'Ying' faction.

Everyone knew that Lu Xinghui was destined to achieve the Ancestor Realm position in the future.

Therefore, everyone in 'Ying's faction was extremely respectful toward Lu Xinghui.

"It doesn't matter. I don't believe he won't return to the Ancestral Land. We will just guard this place!"

Lu Xinghui said through gritted teeth. A violent intent that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time was supposed to be released now, but he had missed his target.

But how could he give up this opportunity to slay Lin Chen...
