Chapter 417: Yu Yongnian: Junior Sister, run!

Canglan energy, surging like a tide.

Lin Chen stood there, but it was as if he had transformed into a bottomless abyss; the "Canglan Heart" at his heart position beat with unprecedented intensity, and the entire space seemed to pulse along with it.

"This is?"

Canglan Sect!

Du Du Xiaofeng and Zhao Zhao Yulin looked at each other, their eyes flashing with brilliance.

If they were not mistaken, Lin Chen should be displaying that set of martial arts.

However, there was doubt in Zhao Zhao Yulin's eyes; when did Lin Chen learn this martial art? According to sect rules, only martial artists at the second stage of the Innate Stage would begin to learn this martial art.

One of the three great ancestral martial arts of the Canglan Sect: Canglan Pupil.

The reason the sect required disciples to step into the second stage of the Innate Stage before they could cultivate it was not because they didn't give disciples a chance, but because the requirements to cultivate the Canglan Pupil were extremely high. Without reaching the Crystal Condensation Stage of the second stage of the Innate Stage, the innate power within the body simply could not support the cultivation of this martial art.

Even those who had just stepped into the second stage of the Innate Stage found it difficult to cultivate successfully; only by stepping into the mid-stage of the second stage of the Innate Stage would there be a chance.

Lin Chen, having only just entered the Innate Stage, how did he do it?

Du Du Xiaofeng saw the doubt in Zhao Zhao Yulin's eyes and knew in his heart what Zhao Zhao Yulin was doubting: Lin Chen's stage was not high enough, so how did he cultivate the Canglan Pupil?

Canglan Heart!

Du Du Xiaofeng thought of the matter of Lin Chen condensing the Canglan Heart. To be able to successfully cultivate the Canglan Pupil while in the Innate Stage, it could only be because of the Canglan Pupil.

The Canglan Heart made the tier of Canglan energy within Lin Chen's body higher than that of ordinary disciples, and the innate power that could be converted was also purer.

Perhaps, there were other reasons mixed in, but that would have to wait until Lin Chen came down from Mount Mount Wudao to ask.

On Mount Mount Wudao.

At this moment, Sima Kong no longer had his previous arrogance, frantically mobilizing the innate power within his body. The fierce tiger phantom behind him began to gradually become solid, emitting a heaven-shaking tiger roar, and the energy between heaven and earth seemed to converge toward it.

Boom!

Sima Kong punched out, and the fierce tiger behind him roared and arrived, with an attitude of looking down on the world, crushing the void.

Even if they couldn't hear the sound, many martial artists watching the battle at this moment, especially those below the Innate Stage, turned pale in the face of that tiger-coming-out-of-the-mountain posture.

Can Lin Chen really take this move?

Ceng Xi, Zhang Xu...

The innate martial artists who had been challenged by Lin Chen on Mount Mount Wudao were now staring fixedly at Lin Chen; they wanted to know how Lin Chen would deal with this punch from Sima Kong, because they admitted that if it were them, they absolutely would not be able to block it.

Lin Chen, eyes closed tightly, seemed as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.

At this moment, he was backtracking to the last deduction in the Wu Wu Yanjing on Mount Mount Wudao not long ago, the beam of light condensed from the extreme Canglan tide he had seen.

When the fierce tiger was only three zhang away, Lin Chen finally opened his eyes. In the depths of those opened eyes, they were no longer the pupils of an ordinary person, but a rotating, deep, and unfathomable azure vortex.

"Canglan Pupil!"

A cold, low shout came from Lin Chen's mouth. At this moment, his gaze also locked onto Sima Kong.

Swish—!!!

Two extreme ice-blue rays of light, as if traveling through ancient void, burst out from Lin Chen's vortex eyes! These two rays of light were only the thickness of a thumb, appearing extremely inconspicuous.

But it was these two seemingly inconspicuous rays of light that were fast to the extreme, even causing the space to emit a cracking sound as if it were unbearable.

The light instantly pierced through the fierce tiger, and the fierce tiger phantom didn't even have time to let out a whimper before it instantly dissipated and vanished!

The smile on Sima Kong's face was replaced by horror. The moment these two ice-blue rays of light appeared, he felt danger, a sense of crisis so intense he had never felt since stepping into the Innate Stage.

Chirp!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a faint, light sound like ice crystals piercing through glass.

Those two ice-blue rays of light, condensed to the extreme, passed through the defense of Sima Kong's Tyrant Heaven Armor without any obstruction!

It was like two red-hot needles piercing through thin ice, easily tearing open the energy armor layer capable of withstanding attacks from the peak of the Gang-Transforming Stage, accurately and without error sinking into Sima Kong's body!

Sima Kong's body shook violently, as if struck by a thunderbolt!

That face full of confidence and arrogance instantly turned deathly pale, and all the surging power suddenly disappeared like a deflating balloon.

The light of the twenty innate crystals around his body instantly dimmed and extinguished, his entire person was frozen in spiritual sense and innate power, standing stiffly on the spot, his eyes left only with unbelievable horror and solidified pain.

After Lin Chen shot out this ray of light, his face was also deathly pale, as if all his strength had been drained in an instant, the Canglan energy within his body was also gone, and even his spiritual sense sent waves of weakness.

Canglan Pupil, displaying it at his current stage was still too much of a stretch.

Landing on the ground, after staggering a few times, Lin Chen finally managed to stabilize his figure, but those eyes, which had returned to their normal color, were as sharp as ever.

Lin Chen lost?

Seeing this scene, many people muttered in their hearts, especially those martial artists with lower stages who had not yet entered the Innate Stage.

After all, in their view, Sima Kong was still hovering in the air.

"Alas, this Lin Chen still failed to create a miracle."

"A pity, just one step away from the final pass, failed to break through."

Wangchuan Terrace, at the entrance of the small alley.

Su Qin comforted: "Young Lady, Young Master Lin being able to win second place is already very impressive; even if he lost, he is defeated with honor."

Elder Murong Yan shook her head, but her beautiful eyes had a strange brilliance; she didn't think Lin Chen had lost. If he had lost, Lin Chen wouldn't have this expression.

Two breaths later!

The scene suddenly erupted into an uproar; Sima Kong, who was hovering in the air, fell directly from the air and slammed heavily onto the ground.

Lin Chen landed staggering.

Sima Kong fell to the ground.

The difference in skill was immediately apparent!

The winner and loser had been decided!

Canglan Sect, heaven-shaking cheers resounded.

"Little Junior Brother... Hahaha... Too much face for my Canglan Sect."

"The final battle, and it was won using my Canglan Sect's Canglan Pupil, who dares to say another word of criticism?"

Chai Chai Daoqi was very excited, and a smile also appeared on the face of Open Qiao Yuan beside him.

Du Du Xiaofeng stroked his beard and laughed, his old eyes filled with unconcealable joy; with such a disciple, what more could he ask for?

Zhao Zhao Yulin listened to Du Du Xiaofeng's laughter, and there was a trace of regret in his heart, but after seeing his own disciple Open Qiao Yuan, that regret also disappeared.

At least, he had also received Open Qiao Yuan as a disciple. In comparison, Zhou Lin Shixiong and the others who competed with Lin Lin Shixiong Du at the time didn't know how much they regretted it in their hearts.

If they had known Lin Chen could achieve such accomplishments, Zhou Lin Shixiong and the others would have torn their faces off at the time rather than letting Lin Chen be so easily taken away by Lin Lin Shixiong Du.

Daliang.

At this moment, cheers also erupted in many places.

Martial Way Alliance.

Whether they were the innate elders who came first or later, at this moment, their eyes met, and they all saw the same answer in each other's eyes.

Daliang will be worry-free for the next hundred years.

As long as Lin Chen is still alive, no force will have designs on Daliang.

Daliang has three places of innate energy, which are attractive to ordinary sects, but these types of sects cannot afford to offend Lin Chen.

Reaching the top of Mount Mount Wudao, and with a ten-thousand-match winning streak, this battle between Lin Chen and Sima Kong was absolutely the strongest battle for first place on Mount Mount Wudao in recent years.

The geniuses who reached the top of Mount Mount Wudao in previous years were at least at the fifth stage of the Innate Stage.

And for those major forces that could afford to offend Lin Chen, a mere three places of innate energy were not worth their attention.

This island has eight countries, and originally the Han country was the first.

Now the Han country's reputation is gradually not as good as the Liang country, but in terms of overall strength, it is still higher than the Han country, but it won't be long before the Liang country surpasses the Han country. With Lin Chen there, there will inevitably be many sects coming to the Liang country to recruit disciples, and talented young martial artists from other countries will also head to the Liang country. Within twenty years, the Liang country could be the hegemon of the island, or even unify the remaining eight countries.

Deep in the Daliang Imperial Palace.

Emperor Liang Jing looked at the documents in front of him, just glanced at them, and set them aside.

These documents came from the Zhao country, Qi country, Ze country... actively wanting to merge into Daliang; these royal families were willing to lower their status to become dukes and marquises.

Unification of the nine countries...

In the eyes of outsiders, the Liang country and the Han country had been fighting openly and secretly for many years, especially the battle to destroy the Northern Border Demon Clan, which was to compete with the Han country for this hegemony status and finally unify the nine countries.

But the fact was, their royal family didn't have such thoughts at all.

Before the threat hanging over the royal family's head was removed, the royal family would not have any other thoughts.

Lord Lingxiao City.

Jiang Jiang Duanchao also had a few good friends watching the battle at this moment. When he saw Sima Kong fall, he couldn't stop smiling.

"Haha, worthy of being my son-in-law, Jiang Jiang Duanchao, didn't lose face for me."

Chu Ming and the others on the side heard this and were speechless.

Lin Chen being able to reach the top of Mount Mount Wudao, what the hell does it have to do with you, Jiang Jiang Duanchao?

The face of a petty person who has achieved success!

"Pity, Qing'er is not here..."

Jiang Jiang Duanchao, while happy, thought of his daughter and felt some regret. Ever since Lin Chen went to the Yan Imperial Dynasty, his daughter also went to the Yan Imperial Dynasty.

But his daughter didn't leave on her own, but a powerhouse from the Yan Imperial Dynasty arrived in Daliang, took a fancy to his daughter's talent, and took her away.

That powerhouse took his daughter as a disciple because she heard that Lin Chen was taken a fancy to by the Canglan Sect and accepted as a personal disciple of an elder, and was curious to stroll around Lin Chen's hometown, only to meet his daughter and have the intention of accepting her as a disciple.

Raozhou Prefecture, Jiang family.

"My Lady, the little son-in-law has taken first place on Mount Mount Wudao."

"Hmm, Qing'er's eye for people is indeed good."

"My Lady, should we inform the Young Lady about this?"

"No need, Qing'er should be in seclusion breaking through now. After she breaks through, she will naturally know."

Zhuang Min waved her hand. Her husband thought that Qing'er's master was met by chance, but didn't know that this was something she had secretly arranged.

"What are the thoughts of those old guys in the clan?"

"The elders are very excited about the Young Lady's arrival, they just miss you, My Lady."

Hearing this, Zhuang Min's face was also a bit dim. Her actions at the time were indeed too willful, hurting the hearts of many elders.

But if she were to choose again, she would still do it.

"My Lady, with your precedent, I'm afraid the elders will watch the Young Lady very closely this time, and the little son-in-law..."

"Then leave that to Lin Chen to worry about himself."

Zhuang Min smiled cunningly; Lin Chen wants to marry Qing'er, but there are still many hurdles to pass.

Wu Garden.

Zhao Zhao Qianqiu, in a red dress, lay lazily on a rattan chair.

"Elder, Lin Chen has successfully reached the top of Mount Mount Wudao."

Yan He'an on the side hurried in to report the good news.

Hearing Yan He'an's news, Zhao Zhao Qianqiu suddenly sighed, her voice filled with helplessness.

Yan He'an was a bit puzzled; why did Elder Zhao sigh?

"Old Yan, I am already the General Elder of the Gold Garden, and the next step up is the Deputy Garden Master of the Wu Garden."

Zhao Zhao Qianqiu sighed faintly, and Yan He'an also instantly understood Elder Zhao's mood. Let alone Elder Zhao, his own mood was also a bit complicated.

Because of discovering Lin Chen, Elder Zhao's status in the Wu Garden rose all the way, and he followed suit. Although because of his strength, he couldn't serve as an elder, but the elders of various Wu Gardens would call him "Old Yan" when they saw him.

As for Elder Zhao, one step further, that would be the Deputy Garden Master.

The first person under the Garden Master.

Besides the improvement in status, Elder Zhao's strength was also rapidly improving under the cultivation of the Garden Master; it is said that she had already touched the threshold of the Innate Stage.

And looking at the entire Daliang, there were quite a few people who benefited from Lin Chen's light.

Truly, when one person achieves the Dao, the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

"Old Yan, did you ever think that Lin Chen could reach this height at the beginning?"

Facing Elder Zhao's inquiry, Yan He'an replied with a bitter smile: "Elder, I didn't even know there was a Yan Imperial Dynasty outside at that time."

"Not counting the Yan Imperial Dynasty, just the nine countries, did you ever think Lin Chen could become the number one in the nine countries?"

"No."

Yan He'an answered truthfully. When he first saw Lin Chen, he valued Lin Chen's maturity and diligence far beyond his peers, and that firm heart for martial arts.

"To tell you the truth, Young Master Lin becoming a model for Daliang martial arts students already shocked me very much."

Any higher, Yan He'an didn't dare to think at all.

Zhao Zhao Qianqiu's beautiful eyes flowed, and Yan He'an's words also represented her.

However, after becoming the General Elder, she knew more about the Wu Garden, especially after contact with the Garden Master. Lin Chen's current achievements exceeded her expectations, and the Garden Master's strength also exceeded her original judgment.

If she really rises again this time, she is very likely to step into the Innate Stage. By then, she should also go to the Yan Imperial Dynasty to venture.

Raozhou Prefecture, Yu Mansion.

A carriage was driving out of the back door of the mansion in a hurry.

In the carriage, Shu Shu Suwan looked amused. When the news of Lin Chen reaching the top of Mount Mount Wudao came, after her husband was excited for more than ten breaths, the first thing he did was to simply pack his luggage and take her out by carriage.

"Senior Sister, don't laugh. If we don't leave, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave later."

Yu Yongnian was also a bit helpless. He had experienced this scene too many times. If he were any slower, I'm afraid the adults from the government office and the Martial Administration Office would have to come to report the good news in person, and as Lin Chen's instructor in the Martial Hall, he would inevitably face everyone's praise and flattery, followed by the awards given by the imperial court.

"Then may I ask the model martial arts instructor of Daliang, where are we going this time?" Shu Shu Suwan asked with a smile.

"Touring mountains and waters, enjoying the beautiful rivers and mountains of our Daliang."

Yu Yongnian gave the answer. He had no pursuit for martial arts now; he knew his own situation.

With his martial arts talent, being able to have the current seventh-rank stage was all piled up by the resources given by the imperial court. These resources, if used on talented martial artists, would be enough to give birth to three or four seventh-rank martial artists.

There was no need to waste the imperial court's cultivation resources; leaving them for more talented latecomers was better.

It's a pity that the adults above didn't listen to him. If he didn't leave this time, I'm afraid the imperial court would waste resources again to make him a sixth-rank martial artist.

Using it on himself was too wasteful.
