Chapter 379

Mount Wudao.

Since arriving in the East Sea Region, he had been busy traveling and had not entered Mount Wudao again.

Now that he had entered Mount Wudao again, Lin Chen inhaled the air of Mount Wudao with some nostalgia.

After choosing the courtyard, Gao Zeming left after giving Lin Chen a sect disciple manual. After all, he was an Innate powerhouse; although he wanted to befriend Lin Chen, it was impossible for him to do everything for Lin Chen personally.

After Gao Zeming left, Lin Chen strolled around his courtyard a few times, and after confirming that all daily necessities were complete, he entered Mount Wudao directly.

Mount Wudao steps.

He had challenged six matches in a row, and the opponent currently displayed in front of him on Mount Wudao was also from the Canglan Sect.

Normally, encountering a fellow sect Lin Lin Shixiong, one should skip directly.

This is also an unwritten rule for genius disciples of various sects on Mount Wudao.

Otherwise, why would Mount Wudao allow challengers to see the opponent's name and information within the top ten thousand?

However, Lin Chen thought of the conversation between the Sect Master and his Master. Since he was currently on a winning streak on Mount Wudao, he would continue to maintain it; there was no need to care that the opponent was not a fellow sect Lin Lin Shixiong.

The rankings and records created by disciples on Mount Wudao would also bring improvements to the sect's reputation.

In a word, even for a super sect like the Canglan Sect, there are more than twenty in the entire Yan Huang Chao. When encountering those top geniuses, super sects will also compete for them, and the ranking of the sect's disciples on Mount Wudao will also affect the choice of those top young geniuses for the sect.

You say the sect's strength is strong and its foundation is deep, but the sect disciples' rankings on Mount Wudao are not prominent. Doesn't that just expose that the sect is not good at cultivating disciples?

Mount Wudao disciple ranking is similar to an advertising sign for various sects to recruit disciples. In his past life, it would probably be like a school producing a top scorer in the college entrance examination. If you add the top few, the city's top students will consider this school.

"Continue the challenge!"

Lin Chen chose to continue the challenge. This time, the scene changed to a square again, and at the same time, on one side of the square, there was a stone tablet engraved with the two characters "Canglan".

Regarding the scene in front of him, Lin Chen now knew where it came from. When he followed Lin Lin Shixiong Gao to the sect earlier, he had overlooked this square from the sky horse, right in front of the sect.

"Fellow sect member?"

Fang Ming appeared on the plains of Mount Wudao and was stunned when he saw this scene. Because of his confidence in his own strength, he didn't look at the challenger's identity information at all. Anyway, he was destined to lose the challenge, and there was nothing worth looking at for a defeated opponent.

But now that he saw it was actually the Canglan Sect's competition venue, it meant that the opponent was also a Canglan Sect disciple.

Don't challenge fellow sect members—doesn't this Lin Lin Shidi in front of him understand this rule?

Or, is someone targeting him?

The figures of those disciples who were in competition with him flashed through Fang Ming's mind, but his expression sank.

"Lin Lin Shidi Chen greets Lin Lin Shixiong Fang."

Lin Chen saw the Lin Lin Shixiong opposite him with a gloomy face, so he reported his identity and then explained: "I ask Lin Lin Shixiong Fang to understand. The reason Lin Lin Shidi challenged Lin Lin Shixiong is because of the requirements from above to maintain the winning streak on Mount Wudao."

Lin Chen?

Fang Ming heard Lin Chen report his name, and there was a sharp glint in his eyes. As for Lin Chen's subsequent explanation, he didn't listen to it at all.

What requirements from above?

Sect Elders would never suggest that these disciples on Mount Wudao choose fellow sect disciples to challenge. Even if they want to maintain a winning streak, skipping fellow sect Senior Brothers doesn't affect the winning streak; it's nothing more than one less match.

In his view, it was clear that this Lin Chen learned about the sect's situation as soon as he entered, and might even be eyeing the opening of the Canglan Secret Realm in half a year. This was a deliberate challenge to himself, wanting to defeat him so he could snatch the Canglan Secret Realm quota from his hands.

In Fang Ming's heart, a quota for the Canglan Secret Realm already belonged to him.

"Since the higher-ups want Lin Lin Shidi to maintain a winning streak, then Lin Lin Shixiong won't say anything, but Lin Lin Shixiong won't show mercy."

Fang Ming sneered. If he wanted to step on him to make a name for himself, then he would let him know what a gap is.

Full potential is just potential; martial arts still rely on strength to speak.

"Lin Lin Shixiong, please enlighten me!"

Lin Chen cupped his hands. He felt that this Lin Lin Shixiong Fang had great hostility toward him, just because of a challenge. Logically speaking, he didn't know why there was such hostility toward him. Is there some inside story he doesn't know about?

But if given another choice, Lin Chen would still choose to challenge.

Having just entered the Yan Huang Chao, he didn't want to get involved in too much trouble, but he wouldn't give up the opportunity to improve his martial arts strength because he was afraid of offending people.

"Alright, then as a Lin Lin Shixiong, I will enlighten you."

Fang Ming stared at Lin Chen, his eyes narrowed slightly, and cold chill flowed from the bottom of his eyes: "Lin Lin Shidi, be careful."

Although he said it was a reminder, after Fang Ming's voice fell, his momentum climbed sharply. He pointed with his right hand, and Canglan energy surged above the two of them. An ice-blue finger fell suddenly.

Seeing the opponent perform the Canglan Finger, Lin Chen raised his eyes to look at the giant finger coming toward him, and also pointed with one finger.

The same Canglan Finger.

The sky, which had already been rendered ice-blue by Canglan energy, was completely covered by Canglan energy at this moment. In that Canglan energy, a giant finger much larger than Fang Ming's Canglan Finger broke through the air.

Boom!

The two giant fingers collided in the air, and endless Canglan energy leaked from the giant fingers. One could only see the two fingers collapsing rapidly, but in the process of collapsing, they moved toward Fang Ming's direction.

Seeing this scene, Fang Ming frowned. The power of his Canglan Finger was actually weaker than this Lin Chen's by a few points.

How is this possible?

But he was only surprised; he hadn't used his full strength just now.

"No wonder you dare to challenge me, but you think you can defeat me like this? Too naive."

Fang Ming chuckled, his right hand flowing with ice-blue light, and ice-blue spikes actually condensed on his fist.

"Canglan Space-Splitting Fist!"

With an angry shout, Fang Ming suddenly threw a punch. The Canglan energy in his body condensed on the surface of his fist at this moment. Where the fist wind passed, fine cracks appeared in the space, carrying an incomparable aura, fiercely coming toward Lin Chen.

"Heavenly Expansion Myriad Phenomenon Destruction Palm!"

Lin Chen also changed his fingers, turning fingers into palms, and the Heavenly Expansion Myriad Phenomenon Destruction Palm was pushed out suddenly. Instantly, wind and thunder surged. Amidst the bursts of wind and thunder, there were rolling clouds, and a terrifying force spread out. Even the air began to distort, and finally, it actually collapsed.

"What kind of palm technique is this?"

Fang Ming's pupils shrank. He could be sure that this was not a Canglan Sect technique.

As a personal disciple, he had understood all the techniques of the Canglan Sect below the Innate Realm, and then specially selected two techniques with great power, such as this Canglan Space-Splitting Fist. But under Lin Chen's palm, the Canglan Space-Splitting Fist was like the glow of a firefly competing with the bright moon. The ice-blue spikes disintegrated inch by inch in the sea of clouds, and dissipated completely in just three breaths.

"How can he be so strong?"

This time, Fang Ming's expression became unusually serious. He didn't have the upper hand at all in the competition of strength, and the bit of pride in his heart was completely restrained by now.

"Lin Chen, this is what you forced me to do. Originally, this trump card was intended to be saved until the start of the Canglan Secret Realm."

After putting away his contempt, Fang Ming took a deep breath, and the next moment another ice-blue spike appeared above his head.

But with the appearance of this ice-blue spike, Fang Ming's face gradually became pale.

"Soul Spike, go!"

Fang Ming whispered, and this ice-blue spike shot out. Lin Chen's palm wind did not affect the spike at all, as if the two were not in the same space.

"Lin Chen, being able to force me to use my trump card divine sense attack, you should be happy even if you lose."

Divine sense.

For martial artists below the Innate Realm, only a very small number can separate it from their divine soul.

But separating divine sense is only the first step. To make divine sense aggressive, one also needs to refine and control the divine sense.

Without a powerful divine soul, this cannot be done.

This is the trump card Fang Ming is proud of.

"Divine sense attack?"

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze condensed, and a flying knife appeared at his brow center, then went to meet the spike.

The collision of the two in the air dissipated silently at the same time.

"He can also use divine sense attacks?"

Fang Ming looked in disbelief at the flying knife that disappeared at the same time as his spike, but at the same time, Lin Chen's Heavenly Expansion Myriad Phenomenon Destruction Palm also arrived in front of him. The terrifying palm wind energy swept over, shaking him back dozens of steps on the spot before he stopped.

"Then let's see whose divine soul is stronger."

Although his state was a bit embarrassed, Fang Ming didn't intend to admit defeat just like that, and separated a divine sense again, but his face turned pale again.

However, before he could shoot out this divine sense, when he saw Lin Chen in front, he was completely stunned.

Around Lin Chen, six flying knives were suspended.

Six attacking divine senses!

It took him a lot of divine soul to condense one attacking divine sense, while Lin Chen condensed six attacking divine senses in one breath.

This means that Lin Chen's divine soul is far stronger than his own.

He was not an opponent in the collision of strength, and now he was not as good as Lin Chen in divine soul, and the gap was even greater than in strength.

How can this fight still be fought?

"I lost."

No matter how unwilling he was, Fang Ming still struggled to say the two words "admit defeat".

"Thank you, Lin Lin Shixiong Fang, for letting me win."

Lin Chen took back the flying knife and cupped his hands in salute.

The reason he condensed six flying knives in one breath was to make Fang Ming admit defeat.

Show his strength and subdue the enemy without fighting.

"Lin Lin Shidi, you... forget it."

Fang Ming wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything, and after admitting defeat, his figure disappeared from the square.

Within ten thousand, both sides of the battle can actively admit defeat, without needing to defeat the opponent.

At this ranking, even if they are from the same sect, no one will be willing to admit defeat and lower their ranking.

……

Defeating Fang Ming was just a small episode for Lin Chen, which did not affect his state of mind, and he soon chose to challenge the next opponent.

……

Fang Ming withdrew from Mount Wudao with a very complicated expression.

He lost, lost to that Lin Lin Shidi.

He originally thought about going to find that Lin Lin Shidi to give him a show of force. Fortunately, he fought on Mount Wudao. Otherwise, if he had really gone to find Lin Lin Shidi, the show of force would have been set up, but he would have been defeated by Lin Lin Shidi instead. I'm afraid it would have caused ridicule from all the inner disciples.

In this way, Lin Lin Shidi choosing to challenge him on Mount Wudao really came at the right time and saved his face.

Half an hour later, the inner disciple who came to report the news earlier appeared outside Fang Ming's courtyard gate again.

"Lin Lin Shixiong Fang?"

It had been half an hour; Lin Lin Shixiong Fang should have time now.

"I want to concentrate on challenging on Mount Wudao. I won't go to Lin Lin Shidi's place for now. You go back."

Hearing this, the inner disciple outside the door was full of confusion. Lin Lin Shixiong Fang isn't going again?

If Lin Lin Shixiong Fang doesn't go, how can he report back to Lin Lin Shixiong Zhu?

"What, do I have to go?"

After a long while, Fang Ming's cold voice came from inside the door. The inner disciple trembled all over: "Lin Lin Shidi doesn't dare. Then Lin Lin Shidi will take his leave first."

Feeling the sound of the other party's departing footsteps, there was also chill on Fang Ming's face. He didn't think so much before, but now that he lost to Lin Chen, he recovered his calm instead. Thinking back carefully, he knew that he had almost been used as a gun by others.
