Chapter 440: Four Strands of Martial Will, the Beginning of Martial Soul

【Racing Against Time: Absorbing four strands of Flawless-level martial will at this moment, the success rate of condensing Martial Soul increases.】

Seeing the reminder of Racing Against Time, Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. When he absorbed the first strand of Flawless-level martial will, Racing Against Time had already mentioned Martial Soul, and now it mentioned it again.

Only this time, the focus wasn't Martial Soul, but the success rate of Martial Soul.

"Is this a hint given by Racing Against Time based on the environment I am in right now?"

Thinking that 【Racing Against Time】 could actively perceive the environment he was in, after this blood moon appeared, he got this hint.

So the appearance of this blood moon made the probability of him absorbing four strands of Flawless-level martial will and condensing Martial Soul higher.

Although he didn't know what Martial Soul represented, if he wanted to break the situation right now, his current strength alone was not enough. Condensing Martial Soul would inevitably lead to an increase in strength.

"Brother Ceng, Qiao Yuan, and senior brothers, you all hold on first."

Lin Chen gave a word to Ceng Xi, Qiao Yuan, and his own sect's senior brothers. The next moment, his figure turned into a beam of extreme light, heading toward the Canglan sea surface, directly choosing to bypass the constantly emerging Canglan Beasts.

With his speed, erupting with full force, it was not difficult for him to avoid these Canglan Beasts.

As for the martial artists of other sects, Lin Chen didn't shout to them. Now that the blood moon had risen, the Canglan Beasts were no longer targeting only the Canglan Sect disciples; everyone was on the same boat. If they wanted to survive, they had to resist these Canglan Beasts together.

"What's the situation? Lin Chen ran?"

Seeing Lin Chen heading toward the Canglan Sea and finally entering a colored bubble, Mu Jun and others were all dumbfounded.

"I know, Lin Chen is deliberately hiding in the bubble so he doesn't have to suffer the Canglan Beasts' attacks. This guy is too hateful, leaving us here to attract the Canglan Beasts' firepower."

"Brother Mu, I don't think Lin Lin Shixiong is that kind of person. He must have a reason for doing this."

Ceng Xi shook his head. He didn't believe Lin Chen was hiding in the bubble to survive the three hours. As a disciple of the Qianji Sect, he had cultivated a technique called "Soul Observation Art."

After cultivating this technique, when he came into contact with a person, he could judge whether this person was worth befriending.

If it were that kind of insidious villain or a person who goes back on their word, it would make his soul have a kind of rejection toward them. But when he saw Lin Chen for the first time in the Canglan Sect, he had a very comfortable feeling.

Ordinary martial artists call it "eye affinity," but he knew that this was because Lin Chen was not that kind of insidious person, and it was the feedback his soul got from his "Soul Observation Art."

He was willing to befriend Lin Chen, besides Elder Bai's instructions and being truly conquered by Lin Chen's talent, there was also this reason.

In this life, having two or three good friends is enough.

These two or three good friends refer to those you can confide in and trust.

Like these sect geniuses, they are the hardest to make close friends with.

There are too many people who behave humbly and politely, even extremely enthusiastically, when they are with him, but under the "Soul Observation Art," he has rejection deep in his heart toward these people.

This shows that these people are not truly worth befriending.

It was precisely because he recognized Lin Chen that he helped the Canglan Sect disciples deal with the Canglan Beasts.

"What reason? He has already comprehended one strand of Flawless-level martial will. Could it be that he still wants to comprehend a second one?"

Facing Mu Jun's counter-question, Ceng Xi was also silent. He didn't know what Lin Chen wanted to do and couldn't answer.

"If Lin Lin Shixiong wanted to run, how would the situation have reached this point?"

Qiao Yuan spoke coldly, his gaze sweeping toward Mu Jun: "With Lin Lin Shixiong's strength, he could completely hide behind all of us. When everyone is dead, if three hours haven't passed, he could still hide in the bubble. In terms of speed, who among you can compare to Lin Lin Shixiong?"

Qiao Yuan's counter-question made Mu Jun and others fall silent, because what Qiao Yuan said was indeed reasonable.

The strength Lin Chen displayed was unique among all of them.

"Don't think so much. Since we are all on the same boat now, we should cooperate with one heart. As for Lin Chen... perhaps he discovered a clue to break the situation, or he has other ways. Let's just wait quietly."

Ji Shixuan of the Xuanhuang Sect interrupted Mu Jun's words. He also had Mu Jun's suspicion, but what Qiao Yuan said was also a fact. If Lin Chen really held this intention, they had no way to deal with it.

They were separated from the bubbles on the sea surface by dozens of Canglan Beasts. Besides Lin Chen, no one else could cross the Canglan Beasts and hide in the bubbles.

Moreover, every bubble has a time limit. After defeating the Canglan Beast, you either obtain the martial will or give up the martial will. It's impossible to stay in the bubble forever, at most delaying for a few hundred breaths of time.

"Since Lin Chen let us hold on, then we can only choose to believe in Lin Chen. I advise you all not to hide your strength anymore. The result of hiding strength is being broken one by one by the Canglan Beasts."

Ceng Xi reminded everyone. These Canglan Sect disciples had been targeted by the Canglan Beasts from the beginning, so the senior and junior brothers joined forces without any reservation.

But others were different. Mu Jun and others didn't go all out. Even if they had the strength to defeat the Canglan Beasts in front of them, they didn't defeat the Canglan Beasts to relieve the Canglan Sect disciples, but instead preserved their strength.

People have selfishness; he can understand that.

But in this situation, if the Canglan Sect disciples are allowed to be killed by the Canglan Beasts, the final result is that after the Canglan Sect disciples die, it will be their turn next.

Relieving the Canglan Sect disciples is also leaving a line of life for themselves.

Hearing Ceng Xi's words, Mu Jun and others' expressions changed slightly, and they looked at each other, finally nodding slightly.

It cannot be denied that Ceng Xi was right.

Preserving strength and letting the Canglan Sect disciples be strangled by the Canglan Beasts—they wouldn't be able to run either.

Boom!

Mu Jun smashed a Canglan Beast in front of him with one punch, and his figure headed toward a Canglan Sect disciple on the side.

Others were the same.

"Everyone of the Canglan Sect, you might as well rest for a while and recover your Innate power."

The dozen or so people at the scene formed a fan shape. According to the order, after one side defeated a Canglan Beast, they immediately retreated, and then others topped up.

Lin Chen stepped into another bubble again.

Unlike the scene of spear intent last time, this time it was a desert scene with yellow sand filling the sky.

A Canglan Beast completely condensed from quicksand and shaped like a fierce tiger roared silently. Its huge sharp claws rolled up a violent sandstorm, and every grain of sand contained tearing power.

Yellow sand filled the sky, not only blocking the line of sight but also blocking the soul.

And right in this yellow sand filling the sky, a cold light suddenly killed its way over.

Bang!

Lin Chen, upon entering the yellow sand, first had flames spread on his body, but the part hit by this cold light had its flames directly annihilated, leaving a deep-to-the-bone knife wound.

"Is this a Flawless-level martial will of the blade type?"

Lin Chen's eyes were serious.

Lin Chen's eyes were serious. Flames covered his whole body, his golden wing shoulder guards vibrated, and his speed was raised to the extreme, shuttling through the yellow sand filling the sky.

Upon the first exchange, he felt pressure.

This Canglan Beast was shaped like a fierce tiger, and its power was extremely domineering and heavy. Every strike was like a mountain collapsing, purely using force to suppress people.

In terms of continuous attacks, it wasn't as good as the spear; in terms of agility, it wasn't as good as the halberd, but it had the domineering power to crush everything...

This is the terrifying aspect of blade martial path.

It doesn't need to suppress continuously; it only needs one blade.

Just one blade is enough to defeat the enemy.

If it were at a normal time, Lin Chen would fight this Canglan Beast slowly, but at this moment, time was incomparably important to him. ===== CHAPTER 441 =====
