Chapter 2652: Chapter 2672: Your friendship is truly enviable

"Mr. Lin, do you want to participate in the Bloodbath Game?"

Elder Guo’s expression was one of surprise as he looked at Lin Chen. After all, such a deadly game was extremely dangerous; even a Saint Child who was a Pinnacle Daluo Supreme Immortal couldn’t be sure they would definitely come out alive.

In the game of death, anything could happen.

As a disciple of the Myriad Immortal Hall’s Battle Hall, Lin Chen’s status was illustrious. If he were to die in the Bloodbath Game, what would happen if the Myriad Immortal Hall came looking for trouble?

Lin Chen understood Elder Guo’s concerns and said with a smile, "I heard from Kong Ling that your sect has 20 spots. Could you allocate two spots for me? Elder Guo, rest assured, we will participate under the identity of Illusory Serpent Sect disciples, and all honors gained will be attributed to the Illusory Serpent Sect."

"This is merely because of my friendship with Kong Ling; I want to give him a hand so he doesn’t fall in this deadly game. Also, I will need his help with something afterward, so consider this a prepayment of sorts."

"No matter what we encounter in this competition, even death, it’s our own choice, and it has nothing to do with the Illusory Serpent Sect. I can make that clear in advance."

Elder Guo sighed in relief. If the Illusory Serpent Sect was not to be blamed, then if their strength was sufficient, letting them participate was not a problem. After all, with its waning talent, it was very difficult for the Illusory Serpent Sect to find 20 Daluo Supreme Immortals; they had to make do with Daluo Mysterious Immortals.

"Mr. Lin, did you just mention two people?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, I have a traveling companion whose strength is even higher than mine. She will surely be able to help Kong Ling, as well as aid the Illusory Serpent Sect."

Elder Guo nodded in understanding: "So you’re saying that your participation is solely to help Kong Ling achieve better results and thereby earn sect points to learn the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art?"

Lin Chen replied candidly, "Yes."

Elder Guo laughed, "For such a dangerous game, to risk your lives to help him, your friendship truly is enviable."

Lin Chen smiled, "A friend is there to offer help. I help him; he helps me; it’s good for us all. So Elder Guo, does this mean you agree?"

Elder Guo asked, "One last question, what are the strengths of you and your friend, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Chen replied, "I am a Lower-grade Daluo Supreme Immortal, and my friend is a Top-Grade Daluo Supreme Immortal. Both of our Combat Powers are far beyond that of immortals in the same realm."

Elder Guo didn’t doubt this at all. After all, disciples who had entered the Myriad Immortal Hall’s Battle Hall had extraordinary talents and, with the cultivation of various high-level techniques provided by the Myriad Immortal Hall, were naturally much stronger than cultivators of the same realm.

Since both Lin Chen and his companion were Daluo Supreme Immortals with notable Combat Power, adding them to the Illusory Serpent Sect’s team would not only be doing them a favor and gaining goodwill, but also taking advantage, resulting in a win-win situation.

"Okay, since Mr. Lin is so determined, our Illusory Serpent Sect naturally will not hinder such a kind gesture. We entrust the Bloodbath Game to the two of you," Elder Guo conceded.

Lin Chen thanked him with a smile, "Thank you, Elder Guo, for your graciousness."

After exchanging pleasantries, the matter was settled.

With half a month left before the Bloodbath Game, Lin Chen was invited by Elder Guo to stay within the sect, to which he readily agreed.

As a Myriad Immortal Hall’s Battle Hall disciple, Lin Chen naturally wasn’t subject to any restrictions and was free to come and go within the Illusory Serpent Sect.

Lin Chen strolled out of the Illusory Serpent Sect and met up with his original body and Shang Wenyin, who were waiting in a secluded area.

"Now that he has agreed, we should also lend a hand. Maybe the earth-element Dao Crystal will end up relating to this Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art," he said.

Shang Wenyin smiled, "Even if we can’t completely win out in the battles below the level of Daluo Supreme Immortals, we should at least be able to keep our lives safe."

Lin Chen turned to Yue Chengtian and said with a laugh, "Chengtian, with half a month left, you need to prepare some powerful Array Plates that we can carry. I’m sure they will come in handy inside."

Yue Chengtian’s eyes lit up, excitement filling him, "Don’t worry, Brother. I’ve got this. Crafting an Array Formation that could trap or even kill Begin Immortals, similar to the Lüxian Formation, is hard and requires too many materials, but dealing with Daluo Supreme Immortals is much easier."

Lin Chen laughed lightly, patting Yue Chengtian on the shoulder, "Whether we can make a big killing in the Bloodbath Game depends entirely on you."

With Lin Chen’s praise, Yue Chengtian was filled with fervor, "Brother, lend me the Phoenix Fire Spirit again, will you? With the Phoenix Fire Spirit at the core, I can set up an Eight Wastes Fire Spirit Formation. Once inside, any Daluo Supreme Immortal who lacks any special Magical Treasures or Divine Powers for escape will definitely find it difficult to survive!"

Lin Chen readily agreed, "Okay, what else do you need? I’ll help you prepare... and don’t just focus on offensive formations, prepare some with other functions too, like defense, teleportation, and so on. Since this is a matter of life and death, we must be thoroughly prepared and not capsize in a gutter..."
