Chapter 1830: Chapter 1850: Can I get the reward first?_1

The Ancestral Dragon paused slightly, seemingly surprised by Lin Chen’s direct question!

This matter is still unresolved!

The Ancestral Dragon said with a smirk, "How was the Immortal Wine and Immortal Peaches you consumed earlier?"

Lin Chen gave a thumbs up and praised, "The Immortal Wine was excellent. It changed my physique and increased my speed of cultivation. The Immortal Peaches directly enhanced my strength. The effect was noticeable. It’s just a pity that there was a lack of it. Otherwise, with my current Mid-stage True Immortal strength, I might have been promoted directly to the peak of True Immortal!"

The Ancestral Dragon chuckled and promised, "How about one jug of Immortal Wine and fifty Immortal Peaches as a reward? Are you satisfied with this?"

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, his face full of excitement. He seemed a little embarrassed, but still asked awkwardly, "Senior, can I get the reward in advance?"

The Ancestral Dragon frowned, "The task isn’t done yet."

Lin Chen explained, "I am greedy. Having the item makes me feel at ease, and I can give it my all. Without it, I always feel unsteady and perform tasks anxiously. I suspect I wouldn’t be able to run away even if I wanted to, in this sacred land. Senior shouldn’t worry about not rewarding me for my work, right?"

The Ancestral Dragon watched Lin Chen, a slightly irked look in his eyes.

This kid hasn’t even done the work yet and is already thinking of reaping rewards. Though he’s saying it politely, isn’t he threatening me indirectly?

Talking about being timid in doing his job without the reward and giving it his all with the reward?

The underlying message is that if you don’t give me the reward in advance, I’ll slack off, and if something goes wrong, don’t blame me!

Cunning fox!

The Ancestral Dragon, after all, was experienced and understood the principle that if you want the horse to run fast, you must feed it. Moreover, this is a matter of life and death. Lin Chen asking for things in advance is not unreasonable.

Furthermore, even though he is the ancestor of the Dragon Clan and holds a noble status with strong power, Lin Chen, however, is the envoy of the Domain Lord, representing the most powerful force in this Immortal Domain. He is not his subordinate, it is normal for them to haggle.

The Ancestral Dragon sighed, "Fine, I’ll give it to you first."

The Ancestral Dragon waved his hand, and a jug of Immortal Wine and fifty Immortal Peaches appeared in the air. Lin Chen showed no courtesy, waved his hand, and collected them all into his Spatial Ring.

"Thank you, senior. For these Immortal Wines and Peaches, I will stake my life and accomplish the task well!"

The Ancestral Dragon nodded, "Do you have anything else you want to ask?"

Lin Chen thought for a while and asked, "I just heard someone mention something about devouring you, merging into one, what does that mean?"

"Merely devouring."

The Ancestral Dragon replied calmly, "We are now two separate entities, even though we were split from one person. But now he is him, and I am me. Eating me would naturally be beneficial for him."

"Devouring, in other words, means annihilating! If I get a chance, I will also use the Array Formation to eradicate him, completely severing this fetter."

Lin Chen asked again, "As long as we suppress or kill him, can we leave?"

"Yes!"

The Ancestral Dragon explained, "The reason I can’t let you leave now is that his power can interfere with the teleportation gate, and I can’t open the gate to send you away. Of course, there are some places to explore in the holy land, and if you are interested, you can explore and leave later."

"Okay!"

Lin Chen laughed, "Last question, will you tell Ao Yanjiang the truth?"

The Ancestral Dragon shook his head, "No, if I do, he may not be willing to cooperate, especially since it carries certain risks. Moreover, if he is prepared, it is easy to give himself away. Only if he knows nothing, he can be most authentic and most likely to disarm the other’s vigilance."

Lin Chen nodded, "Okay, I have no more questions."

The Ancestral Dragon handed over the pre-arranged Array Plate to Lin Chen, taught him how to use it, and finally gave him a golden orb.

"This is a magical treasure I’ve imbued with my energy. It’s a one-time consumable and can help you block one of his attacks. Remember, it can only withstand one attack, so you must enter the Core as quickly as possible. Once the Array Formation is activated, even if I haven’t passed through it yet, he needs at least five minutes to break through the protection shield outside the Core."

"As long as you complete the placement and activation of the array plate within five minutes, that’s when your task is done and you can ensure your safety."

Lin Chen committed everything to memory and said with a smile, "I have it memorized."

The Ancestral Dragon stared at Lin Chen, saying solemnly, "There’s only one chance. Once the Yin Center is exposed, it will fall under his control. No one will be able to come and go as they please, and I will lose the only opportunity to suppress him."

The Ancestral Dragon’s voice became grave, "Given his temperament, if we can’t suppress him smoothly, he will go berserk. Then everyone who enters the abyss will become his first batch of murder targets!"

Lin Chen turned solemn and nodded, "Understood."

The Ancestral Dragon said softly, "Thus, the lives of these Dragon Tribe elites are in your hands!"

Lin Chen suddenly laughed, "Don’t worry, senior. I will definitely complete the task. By the way, I have an off-topic question. Why do you have a human form, while he has a dragon form? His form is truly a Dragon Soul, right?"
