Chapter 1406: Chapter 1426: You, The Cheating Kid_1

Min Huakun’s robes were in tatters, with fresh bloodstains all over, revealing an alarming sight of white bones, with a lot of missing flesh.

Half of his face was missing, revealing the dark red flesh and white teeth, with the other half of the face being pockmarked and covered in bloodstains. He looked just like a hellish demon with half a skull face.

What happened to him?

Lin Chen subconsciously thought of the Metal Array that they had just passed through. Could it be because Zi Feng gave him the wrong coordinates, and therefore he became like this?

Upon seeing Lin Chen, Shu Zi Feng’s eyes filled with joy. She quickly got up from the ground and ran over.

"Master, you’re here!"

Lin Chen gave her a once-over, noticing that she was unharmed from head to toe, and breathed out in relief.

"What happened to him?"

Shu Zi Feng whispered, "The map I gave him earlier was wrong. By the time he passed the Immortal Crossing Bridge, I had already passed the Metal Array. He followed me and stepped to the wrong place, almost dying in there."

"He wanted to kill me on the spot, so I told him that I’ve joined the White Crane Immortal Sect, and that I’m your disciple, and the Sect Master is my Senior Brother. With everyone watching, he didn’t dare to do anything, so he came and sat next to me. I guess he’s waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble."

Lin Chen scanned the crowd, but he didn’t see Guan Xinyue. He asked, "Where’s Guan Xinyue?"

Shu Zi Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, a trace of satisfaction flashing through them. "She and Min Huakun confronted the Array Formation together. After Min Huakun was seriously injured, he used Guan Xinyue as a sacrificial pawn. Guan Xinyue then directly turned into ashes, her body and soul concurrently exterminated by the thunderbolt. However, it is precisely because of this that Min Huakun survived. Otherwise, they both might have died."

Lin Chen laughed, "Nicely done, Guan Xinyue must regret giving Min Huakun your information, allowing him to take you away. And I bet Min Huakun regrets letting you draw the map..."

Shu Zi Feng closed her mouth into a line, "No matter when, as long as I’m alive, none of them can get away!"

Lin Chen nodded, "What’s the situation now?"

Shu Zi Feng shook her head, "Someone previously said a word, ’Wait.’"

Upon remembering the "Eh" he had heard, he asked in a low voice, "You didn’t see anyone, though?"

"No."

Shu Zi Feng whispered, "Everyone suspects that it should be the primordial spirit avatar of the master of this place. They must be very powerful. Since they said to wait, naturally no one dared to move."

Lin Chen nodded and sat down cross-legged at a spot to the side.

Shu Zi Feng moved to Lin Chen’s side and sat down cross-legged. Her originally anxious heart suddenly calmed down.

Min Huakun shot Lin Chen a resentful look, hating him more than he did Shu Zi Feng.

If it weren’t for Lin Chen’s interference, the issue would have been resolved long ago. There wouldn’t have been so many problems afterwards. How could he have ended up looking neither like a human nor a ghost?

If he had to choose between killing Lin Chen or Shu Zi Feng, he would undoubtedly choose Lin Chen without hesitation!

Lin Chen ignored Min Huakun’s resentful gaze, sitting quietly, waiting.

There were still over twenty people on site. If this was the final selection, and the destined person had to be chosen from among these people, the chances were still not high, but much higher than before.

They waited for another two days.

The crowd of cultivators were patient. After all, every single one of them was immortals who would spend years, even hundreds of years in closed-door cultivation.

A light-shadow silently appeared on the shoulder of the massive white jade statue, looking just like the statue itself. The figure was sitting comfortably, one foot on the statue, the other hanging in mid-air.

"I was hoping for some extraordinary geniuses to come along, but all I got were some extras..."

The sudden voice startled everyone, causing them to quickly look up.

As they looked at the young man who looked exactly like the white jade statue, everyone’s heartbeats quickened.

It must be the primordial spirit avatar!

Looking at his appearance, he should be the master of this place. After all, the white jade statue erected here was of him.

However, when the crowd heard his appraisal of them, their mood turned strange again in an instant.

Extras?

Although they wouldn’t call themselves extraordinary geniuses, wasn’t everyone here the pride of their sects and extraordinarily gifted?

If someone else said something like this, they would undoubtedly take issue with it. But now, everyone harmoniously kept their mouths shut.

Who asked for him to be so powerful?

Even though they didn’t know his identity and strength, someone capable of establishing such a place couldn’t be an ordinary immortal, right?

He should at least be a celestial immortal, or even higher.

The young man’s eyes landed on Lin Chen, "For the third trial, others used the cultivation techniques and sword techniques that I left behind to deal with it. But you cheated, forcing your way through..."

Min Huakun suddenly became excited, cruel intentions rising in his eyes.

Lin Chen remained calm, cupping his hands in respect, "The instructions left for breaking the trial only mentioned the prohibition of using defense treasures. It did not rule out not using one’s own abilities to surpass the trial. Besides, if I use my own abilities to surpass it, doesn’t that show that I’m even more capable?"
