Chapter 366: Lin Chen Breaks Through, The Final Step (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

~11 min read 2,115 words

Inside the Lord Lingxiao Great Hall.

The golden light cocoon hung in the air like a scorching sun. Every few breaths, surging Qi and blood would overflow from the cocoon, then crash toward the surrounding hall like a tide.

Inside the golden light cocoon, Lin Chen sat cross-legged. His acupoints were currently spitting out Lord Lingxiao golden light. At his dantian, the Canglan energy condensed into an ice-blue vortex, and inside this ice-blue vortex, the Lihuo transformed into petals and rotated continuously.

Within the flame petals, the original golden figure was now slowly becoming transparent, with green liquid continuously flowing around its transparent body.

Lord Lingxiao energy, Canglan energy, Mother Tree energy, Lihuo energy...

Innate Five Elements energy; by now, Lin Chen already had four.

He didn't know how much time had passed when a faint "crack" sound was heard.

The golden light cocoon suddenly cracked open. Behind Lin Chen, five energy phantoms manifested: the golden sun, the burning Lihuo, the circling Canglan dragon, and a green waterfall falling down.

Of the five energy phantoms, four were very clear, but the last one was as blurry as mist.

After a long while, Lin Chen opened his eyes, a trace of regret in the depths of his eyes.

"Five Elements entering the Innate Realm, but I lack the Water Phase, failing to take this final step into the Innate Realm."

Even with the blessing of the 【Natural Success】 fate, he still couldn't step into the Innate Realm with the Five Elements energy complete.

However, although he failed to break through to the Innate Realm, this breakthrough brought his realm to the First Rank, and it was the peak of the First Rank.

The moment he stood up, a golden film flowed across his skin, his internal organs vibrated in unison, and a terrifying momentum surged toward the surroundings.

Bang!

The entire Lord Lingxiao Great Hall emitted a heaven-shaking sound.

Outside the Lord Lingxiao Martial Way Academy.

Gao Zeming and Hu Yunhua were drinking tea in the courtyard. Hearing the direction the sound came from, Hu Yunhua's eyes shone: "Brother Gao, it seems your Canglan Sect's genius disciple has come out of seclusion."

The two had stayed in the Lord Lingxiao Martial Way Academy for five days. In these five days, Hu Yunhua had also learned about Lin Chen's situation from the mouths of Daliang martial artists.

His first feeling was shock and disbelief.

Originally, he thought this Lin Chen should have come from some Martial Way powerful family on this island, but he didn't expect him to be born in an ordinary fisherman's family.

A fisherman's son, rising against the odds, in just three years, leaped to become the number one genius of the younger generation. And this time, coming out of seclusion, he was highly likely to have entered the Second Rank.

Placed in the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao, this was an inconceivable thing.

Gao Zeming smiled. He hadn't told Hu Yunhua about Lin Chen's performance on the Martial Way Mountain, hadn't told Hu Yunhua that Lin Chen, facing the danger of being burned by Lihuo, chose to enter the Martial Way Mountain to seek help. How many geniuses in the history of the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao dared to try such a confident operation?

The gate of the Lord Lingxiao Great Hall, after Lin Chen entered for seclusion and breakthrough, finally opened again after several months.

The gate opened slowly, and the golden sunlight sprinkled into the space of the opened gate for the first time. In the eyes of the dozens of figures who rushed over the first time they heard the movement, the youth walked out slowly, as if bathing in the golden sunlight.

"It's Lin Lin Shidi."

"It's Senior Lin Lin Shidi."

Qin Yan and Gu Kong looked at the youth figure walking out of the great hall and recognized Lin Chen for the first time.

On the Martial Way Mountain, both had seen Lin Chen's appearance.

"This aura... First-Rank martial artist?"

Hu Yunhua saw Lin Chen walking out, surprise in his eyes, then looked at Gao Zeming beside him: "Brother Gao, you are not kind. You still kept a hand from me at this time. Could it be that you are afraid that I will snatch your Canglan Sect's disciple?"

Gao Zeming, feeling the aura on Lin Chen's body, also had surprise in his eyes. Lin Chen was clearly just breaking through, and the aura on his body couldn't be completely restrained yet. Both he and Hu Yunhua could judge Lin Chen's realm at a glance.

"Brother Hu, you are wronging me. When I set off from the Canglan Sect, Lin Chen only had the strength of the Third Rank. I also didn't expect that Lin Chen could break through to the First Rank in this seclusion."

Hu Yunhua looked at Gao Zeming's expression and knew that Gao Zeming was telling the truth. In his heart, he was also envious of the Canglan Sect. This time, the Canglan Sect really picked up a treasure, and it was picked up in a desolate land of the Martial Way. If it were said out, other sects would be envious.

"Brother Gao, your Canglan Sect has gained such a genius disciple. Should the Pei Qingming side be yielded to my East Sea Donghai Shengong?"

Lin Chen, he couldn't dig away.

Three Elders of the Canglan Sect personally transmitted their voices. If their East Sea Donghai Shengong still tried to poach people, it would be breaking with the Canglan Sect.

This responsibility was something he couldn't bear.

However, that Pei Qingming was not bad either, with flawless sword intent. In the case that there were no sword cultivators on this island, being able to comprehend flawless sword intent was enough to prove how high Pei Qingming's Martial Way talent was.

"This will be decided by Pei Qingming himself."

Gao Zeming laughed. With such a genius disciple as Lin Chen, he was interested in Pei Qingming, but it wasn't that he had to have him.

The main thing was that he saw more clearly than Hu Yunhua. For someone like Pei Qingming who could comprehend flawless sword intent without anyone's guidance, his heart for practicing the sword was extremely pure. It was feared that except for the Guixu Sword Tomb, other sects would find it difficult to attract him.

The top sword cultivators in the Yan Yan Yan Huang Chao were almost all like this. "Lin Chen, come here quickly."

Hou Zhan Tian waved at Lin Chen and introduced him for the first time: "Master Gao of the Canglan Sect is here, specifically for you."

Lin Chen looked at Gao Zeming. Actually, without Hou Zhan Tian's introduction, he had also guessed that Gao Zeming was from the Canglan Sect, because Qin Yan and Gu Kong standing behind Gao Zeming were both seen by him on the Martial Way Mountain.

"This junior has seen Master Gao."

"Haha, Lin Chen, your form of address is wrong. You are a disciple of my Canglan Sect, you should call me Hu Hu Zhishi."

Gao Zeming stroked his beard and smiled, then introduced Hu Yunhua beside him: "This is Hu Hu Zhishi Hu of the East Sea Donghai Shengong. As for the two behind me, you shouldn't be unfamiliar."

"Hmm."

Lin Chen first saluted Hu Yunhua, then looked at Qin Yan and Gu Kong, cupped his fists and said: "Lin Lin Shidi thanks Lin Lin Shixiong Qin and Senior Gu Lin Shixiong for their help. This junior will keep the kindness of the two Senior Brothers in mind."

Lin Chen's salute was very solemn, bowing deeply to the two. A smile appeared on Qin Yan's face. This Lin Lin Shidi was really polite.

As an inner disciple, he had seen those top geniuses in the inner sect, all of whom were high-and-mighty. If these people were replaced by Lin Lin Shidi, they wouldn't perform such etiquette to him at all, only thinking that he was just acting on the orders of the sect Elder.

If Qin Yan was moved, then Gu Kong was a bit at a loss. He didn't expect Lin Chen to bow and salute him either. He hadn't helped Lin Chen at all. The only role he played was providing clues when the sect Elder was looking for Lin Chen's identity.

"Lin... Senior Lin Lin Shidi, you are too polite. I couldn't do anything."

Gu Kong explained a bit embarrassedly. As an outer disciple, facing an inner disciple was naturally a level lower, not to mention facing Senior Lin Lin Shidi, who had been designated as a personal disciple by the Elders.

"Senior Gu Lin Shixiong helped me a lot at the beginning."

Lin Chen smiled slightly. At the beginning, he learned the second layer of the Canglan Finger from Gu Kong. Because he didn't know that disciples were not allowed to pass on the Canglan Finger formula privately, especially since he wasn't considered a Canglan Sect disciple at the time, he didn't know if it belonged to violating sect rules. With Hu Hu Zhishi Gao present, he was afraid Gu Kong would be punished, so he didn't state it clearly.

Gao Zeming didn't think so much. Even if he knew that Gu Kong privately taught Lin Chen the second layer of the Canglan Finger, he would just pretend not to know.

He was quite satisfied with Lin Chen's attitude.

However, it was also possible that because Lin Chen came from an island, it was not yet known whether his character would change after entering the Canglan Sect and possessing the status of a personal disciple.

There were quite a few disciples in the sect who, because their background was not very good, were humble when they first entered the sect, but as their strength improved and their status grew, they gradually became arrogant.

In the courtyard where Gao Zeming temporarily lived in the Lord Lingxiao Martial Way Academy, Hu Yunhua was not there this time.

As Lin Chen finished telling how he later established contact with the sect, as well as the sect's reaction, the courtyard fell into silence.

Qin Yan and Gu Kong were shocked, shocked that in the few months from the time they set off from the Canglan Sect to here, Lin Chen had actually improved his ranking on the Martial Way Mountain by so many places.

Within ten thousand, and it was a winning streak.

This kind of record was something they wouldn't dare to dream of even when they were asleep.

Gao Zeming also listened with his mouth twitching non-stop. He finally knew why Elder Qu and the other three transmitted their voices, and why Du Zhanglao didn't transmit his voice through the Canglan Order.

Taking Qin Yan and Gu Kong away, Du Zhanglao must not have paid attention to the Martial Way Mountain.

And the Xing Youning that Lin Chen met later should have gone directly to the Elder Hall. And the ones on duty in the Elder Hall this session happened to be Elder Zhou, Elder Mei, and Elder Qu.

The Elder Hall of the sect rotated every three years. Each session would arrange three Elders to be on duty to handle the specific affairs of the sect.

Now the three Elders all knew about Lin Chen, and that sound transmission, in the eyes of outsiders, reflected the overbearing and powerful nature of the Canglan Sect, but falling into his ears, this was the Elders deliberately brushing favor in front of Lin Chen.

Otherwise, did they need to say their names?

A title of Canglan Sect Elder was enough to deter these sects.

Did the three Elders each need to transmit their voices?

He even suspected whether the three Elders were also using this to beat him. This was hinting to him that they already knew about Lin Chen's matter. If he still stood on Du Zhanglao's side, when he returned to the sect, he would have to face the suppression of these three Elders.

Du Zhanglao, it's not that this disciple doesn't stand on your side now. If you want to blame someone, blame Lin Chen's performance for being too dazzling.

Regarding Lin Chen's matter, he already had a decision. He would just be responsible for bringing Lin Chen back to the sect and not say anything else. When Lin Chen arrived at the sect, let these Elders fight it out.

An hour later, Lin Chen left the courtyard and, led by Meng Xing, headed to the courtyard where Pei Qingming lived.

"Is Brother Pei here?"

ps: It's the end of the month, everyone, don't keep your monthly tickets.
