421: I was never this strong?

"Lin Chen, an ancestor artifact-level Guardian Beast is no joke. We should wait for the other teams to arrive before challenging it together."

"I've already notified them... those few should be able to arrive within a day."

War Heaven said with a serious expression.

Mu Yun, who was standing nearby, also advised:

"Lin Chen, ancestor artifact-level Guardian Beasts possess at least Half-step Ancestor Realm Peak Battle Power. Some Legendary Level ancestor artifacts are guarded by Guardian Beasts in the Ancestor Realm Early Stage."

"You must not act rashly..."

Ancestor Realm Early Stage?

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

One must know that in the Tianqi Land,

even if an Ancestor Realm Expert arrives, their Realm will be suppressed to the Half-step Ancestor Realm level.

This Supreme heavenly dao will is a bit... cowardly... but Lin Chen still has great confidence.

When he fully erupts, he can possess over 570,000 points of Primal Origin Power.

He just so happened to want to test the limits of his Battle Power!

To be safe, his Main Body entered the Place of Origin, and the rest of his Clones would handle the challenge.

Anyway, the Clones' Battle Power is equivalent to the Main Body's... "Senior War Heaven, just tell me what to do. Even if I fail, I have a way to retreat safely."

Lin Chen said, a smile on his face.

At the same time, an Aura capable of destroying heaven and earth erupted from his body.

War Heaven looked shocked; only now did he realize Lin Chen had concealed his true Strength.

Forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, War Heaven pointed at the Massive Azure Peak and said:

"There is a Node there. As long as you attack it, you can activate the Guardian Beast challenge."

"Lin Chen, after activating the Guardian Beast, you only have one day to complete the challenge."

"If the Guardian Beast is not killed within that day, this ancestor artifact will disappear..."

"Are you sure you still want to challenge it?"

There's actually a time limit?

Lin Chen nodded and said:

"Thank you, Senior War Heaven. Just leave it to me..."

Hearing this, War Heaven found it difficult to say anything else. He quickly retreated with eight Human Race Saint Lord Level Prodigies, moving away from the area.

Lin Chen, meanwhile, locked onto that Node.

"Come on, let's see what level this ancestor artifact is..."

With a thought, Lin Chen summoned Clones from the Place of Origin, and they began forming a Battle Array.

A Blood-Red Long Saber appeared in his hand.

This saber was precisely the Legendary Level quasi-ancestor artifact gifted to him by Lu.

It could amplify Primal Origin Power by 20 times!

Holding the long saber, both Lin Chen and his Clones erupted with full power.

Various amplification abilities began to circulate: God Extermination Art, Heaven Devouring Demonic God Body, Bloodline Power... Lin Chen's Aura became increasingly terrifying.

The Space in this area twisted, seemingly on the verge of collapsing... War Heaven and the others, who had already moved far away, turned back in shock.

"This... what a terrifying Aura!"

"Lin Chen... is he really just Half-step Ancestor Realm?"

War Heaven's expression changed rapidly. Only now did he truly realize how powerful Lin Chen was.

He had only felt this terrifying Aura from a few Human Race Ancestor Realm Experts... At this moment, under a 953x amplification, Lin Chen's Primal Origin Power reached a terrifying 572,753!

Buzz—

He pointed a finger, striking the Node.

Instantly, centered around that Node, a twisted Black Hole began to appear.

The Black Hole continuously expanded... Owo—

A Beast's Roar sounded.

Subsequently, an extremely terrifying Aura emanated from the Black Hole.

"So strong!"

Lin Chen's Pupils contracted sharply.

This Aura involuntarily gave him a sense of Dread.

"Could it be... an Ancestor Realm-level Guardian Beast?"

"Does my Luck have to be this good..."

Just as Lin Chen was momentarily stunned, a Strange Beast with Golden Dual Wings on its back and nine Lion Heads appeared in the Void Realm before him.

"This is the Guardian Beast?"

Lin Chen's expression became solemn.

He realized he couldn't see through the Realm of this Strange Beast at all!

Then there was only one possibility... Ancestor Realm!

"It really is Ancestor Realm!"

Lin Chen frowned deeply, but he did not give up.

On the contrary, a powerful Battle Intent rose in his heart.

Since this Breakthrough, he had yet to truly fight with all his strength!

"Then let's see where my true limit lies!"

Roar—

Lin Chen roared, and the Blood-Red Long Saber in his hand erupted with dazzling Red Light.

He immediately executed the Legendary Level Primordial Battle Skill—Grandmist Dao Severance!

Over 570,000 points of Primal Origin Power were channeled through this single strike and slashed out!

Instantly, a Bloody Saber Light spanning millions of light-years appeared between heaven and earth.

The saber light swept toward the Ancestor Realm Guardian Beast with devastating force.

The Void Realm began to fluctuate violently.

A moment later, where the saber light passed, everything shattered inch by inch!

The Guardian Beast with nine Lion Heads also erupted with Aura at this moment, directly striking the saber light with a claw.

Boom—

A massive explosion occurred in the Void Realm, and terrifying Shockwaves swept across endless light-years.

"Quick! Let's get out of here quickly!"

War Heaven had originally intended to stay and watch the Battle, but now he was so frightened he rapidly retreated further.

"Lin Chen can actually directly confront an Ancestor Realm Guardian Beast... This is unbelievable..."

At the Massive Azure Peak, after the Void Realm stabilized, Lin Chen widened his eyes.

He discovered that his single strike had actually severed one of the Guardian Beast's Foreclaws.

"Was I... this strong?"

Lin Chen himself found it hard to believe.

He sensed that the Guardian Beast's Vitality had dropped by 1%... Lin Chen realized what level of power over 570,000 points of Primal Origin Power represented!

Owoo—

The Guardian Beast howled in pain, and then one of its heads erupted with Golden Light.

The Foreclaw that Lin Chen had severed instantly regenerated.

The 1% Vitality that had been lost also recovered!

Huh?

"It can do that too!"

"Wait until I chop off all nine of your heads, then let's see if you can still recover!"

Lin Chen let out a cold snort, and his figure continuously Teleported.

Streaks of Bloody Saber Light appeared, twisting and killing toward the Guardian Beast.

His target was those nine Lion Heads!

After that exchange just now, Lin Chen realized he possessed the Strength to crush the Guardian Beast!

However, an Ancestor Realm-level Guardian Beast was not so easily killed; Lin Chen was thinking too simply... Just then, the nine Lion Heads simultaneously erupted with Dazzling Golden Light.

Finally, the nine heads merged into one!

Instantly, the Guardian Beast's Strength Soared!

The saber lights Lin Chen had slashed out were directly shattered by its strike!

"Is this... a Body Technique? Or a Racial Secret Technique?"

"So it wasn't using its full strength just now..."

Lin Chen's Pupils violently contracted. This Guardian Beast's Battle Power had at least doubled!

He roughly estimated.

Before going Berserk, the Guardian Beast's Primal Origin Power was only around 300,000.

He could completely crush the opponent!

Now that its Battle Power had doubled, it possessed around 600,000 points of Primal Origin Power!

That was even more terrifying than his full eruption!

A gap of at least 30,000 points of Primal Origin Power... Boom boom boom—

The Guardian Beast locked onto Lin Chen's position, its body continuously leaping through the Void Realm.

Golden Giant Claws aggressively attacked Lin Chen. The Void Realm was torn open with Spatial Rifts as easily as if it were made of paper.

Lin Chen merely clashed once with the Berserk Guardian Beast, and hundreds of his Clones were shredded.

However, he was not anxious. His Main Body was continuously condensing Clones within the Place of Origin.

The Clones in the outside world also tried their best to avoid direct confrontation with the Guardian Beast.

A 30,000 Primal Origin Power difference actually isn't that significant in a battle at this level.

Lin Chen's attacks could also cause Damage to the Guardian Beast.

He was surprised to find that after the Guardian Beast's nine heads merged, the speed of its Physical Body Regeneration slowed down... Lin Chen's eyes gradually lit up.

Following this, both sides began a War of Attrition.

Lin Chen's One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones consumed very little Qi when condensing Clones.

He could completely afford the consumption!

Later on, Lin Chen even resorted to Trading Injuries for Injuries!

Soon, the Guardian Beast's Vitality was Ground Down to 49.9%.

Just at this moment.

A Stream of Information suddenly rushed into Lin Chen's mind.

"This... this is... information about the Massive Azure Peak?"

Lin Chen stopped in astonishment.

He looked up and saw that the Heavily Injured Guardian Beast had vanished into thin air.

"So, success only requires grinding down the Ancestor Realm Guardian Beast's Vitality to below 50%."

Slowly retracting his Aura, Lin Chen's Main Body walked out from the Place of Origin.

He looked at the massive Mountain Peak, his expression extremely excited.

The moment he successfully challenged the Guardian Beast, this Legendary Level ancestor artifact was automatically Refined by him.
