Chapter 2651: Chapter 2671: Why don’t you help me kill someone?

Since the Giant Sand Demon Snake Atlas was not reliable, Lin Chen temporarily set it aside and brought the conversation back to the original topic.

"Let’s put aside the Giant Sand Demon Snake Atlas for now. Let’s get back to the matter of body swapping. What do you think?"

Kong Ling pondered for a moment, then spoke solemnly, "I am satisfied with this body. After the Spirit Separation, when I possess it, it will only take some time to adapt. From then on, the speed of my cultivation will be much faster, and the success rate of Crossing Tribulation will also greatly increase. As long as there are no accidents, perhaps it won’t take too much time."

"However, right now I cannot agree to cooperate with you for the Spirit Separation and body swap. For one thing, I am still with the Illusory Serpent Sect. If I suddenly switched bodies, it would definitely cause a series of troubles. Moreover, Jiang Wanchun is the War Hall Master of the Myriad Immortal Hall. What if the Sect Master has met or recognizes him?"

"Additionally, I have to carry out a mission recently. Upon completing it, I may be able to accumulate enough points to qualify for observing the Giant Sand Demon Snake Atlas and learning the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art."

"You already know the purpose of my coming to the Illusory Serpent Sect. Before learning the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art, I don’t want any accidents to happen. Otherwise, wouldn’t my many years of effort be a waste?"

Lin Chen frowned, understanding what Kong Ling said, but this matter still needed to be resolved after all.

Hadn’t he traveled thousands of miles from the Western Hell to the Southern Wilderness just to deal with this matter?

"So what do you suggest?"

Kong Ling replied, "How about you wait for me for some time—allow me to complete the mission, observe the atlas, and learn the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art. Then, I can find an excuse to leave the Illusory Serpent Sect. After that, we can exchange bodies. I can also take the opportunity to leave the Illusory Serpent Sect, killing two birds with one stone."

Lin Chen hesitated, "How much time will you need?"

Kong Ling spread his hands, "That’s hard to say. It could be several years, or even several decades, but this time isn’t long for us. Rest assured, I am not trying to deceive you, nor am I trying to delay things. If you don’t trust me, I can swear the Heavenly Dao Oath."

Kong Ling’s attitude was sincere, and he spoke the truth. If they were to swap bodies now, he would indeed face many troubles and would waste a lot of time, which would greatly affect him.

Lin Chen nodded, acknowledging Kong Ling’s statement, "You mentioned you are going to carry out a mission. What mission is that?"

Kong Ling said with a slight smile, "The mission is simple, to kill."

Lin Chen looked at Kong Ling in surprise, "What do you mean, kill who?"

Kong Ling explained, "The rulers of the Southern Wilderness are the demon race and the Barbarian Tribe, you know that, right?"

"I know."

Kong Ling nodded, "That’s good. Both the demon race and the Barbarian Tribe have their own territories, and there are wars all the time, non-stop, over territory and resources."

"The Illusory Serpent Sect is located in a disputed area. Throughout ancient times, the demon race and the Barbarian Tribe have fought each other, sometimes pausing, sometimes intensifying. Over time, within a certain range, the demon race and Barbarian Tribe simply agreed to hold a hunt every hundred years."

"Each tribe would decide how many people to send, and then they’d fight each other within a mutually agreed-upon range until the scheduled time of the competition is over, and then see the ratio of the remaining number of people on both sides, where the side with more survivors is the victor."

"Before each competition and fight, both sides would confirm the bet, which is incredibly huge. The winners of the killing would receive a large amount of cultivation resources as rewards."

"The strength of those who participate in the fight is limited to within the Daluo Ultimate Immortal realm. That is to say, those at the Daluo Ultimate Immortal level and below can normally fight within the range without being affected. However, if someone’s strength exceeds the Daluo Ultimate Immortal, reaching the Daluo Initial Immortal, they will be directly thrown out by the Array Formation mutually arranged by both parties."

"Not everyone is eligible to fight in this battleground. The Illusory Serpent Sect, as an Ancient Immortal Sect with a long history, has always been highly respected. Therefore, the Illusory Serpent Sect also has a seat, allowing them to send within 20 people with the strength of Daluo Ultimate Immortal or below to participate in the fight. But, generally, everyone is a Daluo Ultimate Immortal, just differing in realms."

Kong Ling explained up to this point, paused, and suddenly smiled, "Lin Chen, you are already at the strength of a Daluo Ultimate Immortal. Would you like to join in and help me fight against the Barbarian Tribe, to get points? As long as I have enough points, I can earn the credentials to learn the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art."

Lin Chen widened his eyes, "Me? Help you fight the Barbarian Tribe?"

Kong Ling laughed, "Though you are one realm below me, your Combat Power is definitely not low, and you have many tricks up your sleeve. If you and I work together, we can surely wreak havoc."

Lin Chen thought for a moment, confirmed again, "Are you sure that after completing this mission, you will fulfill the point requirement and gain the qualification to learn?"

Kong Ling nodded affirmatively, "On my own, the chances may be uncertain. But with your help, the probability of my success will significantly increase."

Lin Chen frowned, "But I am not a disciple of the Illusory Serpent Sect, am I?"

Kong Ling laughed heartily, "But you are a disciple of the Myriad Immortal Hall’s War Hall, aren’t you? With this status, if you offer to help the disciples of the Illusory Serpent Sect get points in exchange for various materials, they simply cannot refuse."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Chen made up his mind, "Alright, I will help you!"
