Chapter 2658: Chapter 2678: Double Evils? What a lousy name!

Under the scorching sun, the atmosphere in the North and South Camps was deafening with brawling auras soaring high.

By now, all competing sects had arrived, and the bloodthirsty contest officially began.

Five hundred contestants from the North and South Camps streamed out in succession, facing each other in the middle. Although no one had yet made a move, gazes collided in midair, and the tension suddenly escalated.

A few highly respected elders from the demon race and barbarian tribe came to the center of the teams and announced the competition rules to everyone.

Snatching tags to win by the number of the opponent’s tags obtained, besides that, there were no restrictions.

Metal tags fluttered up and landed with each contestant.

Lin Chen extended his hand to catch a tag before him, examining it. It was a metal tag, engraved with Array Formations on both sides. The difference was that the tags from the demon race’s camp were blue, while those from the barbarian camp were black.

With the distribution of tags complete, many Sect Masters made their moves together. Shortly, a Giant Light Door appeared between the North and South Camps.

"The battle begins as soon as you enter the Light Door. The competition will last ten days, and after ten days, everyone will be ejected from the Array Formation and return here."

"I wish you all good luck!"

Everyone lined up, a queue of demon race and a queue of barbarians, and entered the Giant Light Door in two columns simultaneously.

Lin Chen stood in the queue, calm and not the least bit nervous about the impending battle.

Although Lin Chen was only a lower-grade Great Luo Immortal and his realm and strength were among the lower end of all contestants, he feared nothing.

Even a top-grade Da Luo Supreme Immortal who wanted to completely seal the space and crush Lin Chen would find it impossible to do so.

After ascending to Da Luo Supreme Immortal, the power of Linglong Tower was greatly enhanced.

It might be very tough to deal with a Da Luo Initial Immortal, and escaping could be difficult, but against a Da Luo Supreme Immortal? Fear was not an option!

If he couldn’t beat them, then he’d run! With techniques like Carefree Walk, Five Elements Escaping Technique, Linglong Tower, Avatar Ability, and more, how could escape be difficult?

Stepping through the Light Door, Lin Chen’s vision blurred for a moment, his body felt suddenly heavy, and he found himself standing atop the island of the bloodthirsty contest.

Lin Chen glanced at the sun in the sky and quickly determined his direction, heading toward the rendezvous point he set with his three companions.

The gathering point set by the Illusory Serpent Sect was in the southeastern region of the island, in a relatively secluded Basin. Lin Chen and the trio had studied the map and decided on a central location for their meeting point.

Yes, the most dangerous central area.

Lin Chen planned to set up his Array Formation here before anyone else, then fortify his position and kill anyone who came his way!

Engaging in battle with a Da Luo Supreme Immortal, Lin Chen had a much higher margin for error. Even if the plan failed, as long as the three met, they could always retreat and change locations.

The bloodthirsty contest had been held several times before, and the map of the island was very detailed. Using characteristic mountain peaks or basins as landmarks, Lin Chen rode like the wind, swiftly heading for the central area.

By now, all five hundred contestants had entered the island, scattering at random. Lin Chen was fortunate; he wasn’t too far from the island’s center.

It took Lin Chen just an hour to reach the center, finding the peak marked on the map that reached into the clouds.

Lin Chen began to scout around. Following Yue Chengtian’s instructions, he searched for an ideal location to set up his Array Formation.

Just as he was circling the area, Lin Chen suddenly had a premonition and turned his head, only to see two streaks of Golden Light rapidly approaching from a distance.

Lin Chen scrutinized them and frowned slightly.

The newcomers were two barbarian warriors, enemies!

After some hesitation, Lin Chen decided to assess the situation before reacting.

The two barbarians were clearly targeting Lin Chen, and as they drew near, they surrounded him, one ahead and one behind.

"Heh, kid, you think you can just wander into the central area? Is this your first time at the bloodthirsty contest? Didn’t your Sect Elders teach you? The central area has the most people and is the most dangerous!"

The barbarians were naturally towering, with adult men often exceeding two meters, some even up to two meters sixty or seventy, imposing like towers, the quintessential warrior build, exerting immense pressure.

Lucky I’m flying, or else wouldn’t I have to look up to talk to you?

Lin Chenxin muttered to himself and casually responded, "Indeed, it’s my first time and I’m not very familiar. Maybe I should go?"

"Go?"

One of the barbarian warriors grinned, a rough and dominating smile on his face as he held a massive red-colored Battle Axe. "Since you’ve run into us, the Sinister Brothers, that’s just your bad luck. In your next life, be a bit smarter, will you?"

Sinister Brothers?

Lin Chen scoffed. What kind of ridiculous name was that? Didn’t they know that those named Sinister Brothers usually end up as throwaway side characters, the most likely to die off?

Lin Chen glanced at their tags hanging on their chests and noticed the projection Array Formation had been activated, slightly furrowing his brow.

Right now, I must be in someone’s sights.

Should I retreat now?

Lin Chen hesitated briefly before abandoning the idea.

The Seed of Abnormality and his Sword Bone could not escape the eyes of those top big shots. So be it then, let’s use them.

Since forming his Five Elements Path Crystal, he hadn’t yet had the chance to test its true power!
