Chapter 2968: Chapter 2988: Seeing Sun Yixiao Again, the Center of Attention

As these words were spoken, the longing in the eyes of many team leaders who looked at Lin Chen was evident.

Who wouldn’t want to earn military merits?

Military merits could be exchanged for time to cultivate in the Spirit Ascension Hall or for natural treasures that aid in comprehending how to break through to the next level.

Who wouldn’t want to rise higher?

The people were envious, but more than that, they were shocked.

When Lin Chen took over as the Hao Ran Sect Master, his first appearance at the War God Mansion revealed him as a Daluo Ultimate Immortal. In just a few years, he had already become a Middle-Grade Daluo Initial Immortal.

Who could compare with such rapid progress in cultivation and breaking through realms?

Aren’t they envious to the point of tears?

Before this battle, most people believed that once Lin Chen joined the battlefield, given his strength, he would not be able to charge and compete at the forefront. Most likely, he would summon a Great Demon to fight for him, or he would hide within the defenses of the third squad.

The reality slapped everyone in the face—Lin Chen did not summon a Great Demon; instead, he plunged into the fray at the front lines!

He not only charged forward but also killed many Demon Venerable-level enemies. Those powerful Demon Venerables were almost unable to last a single exchange against Lin Chen!

Lin Chen was unstoppable!

In addition to their astonishment, everyone was perplexed. How did Lin Chen do it? He was a Middle-Grade Daluo Initial Immortal, so why was his combat power so formidable, and how could he use so many Divine Powers?

Gao Ming couldn’t help but ask, "Lin Chen, you’ve used so many Divine Powers, what exactly is your innate Divine Power? Can you reveal it?"

Lin Chen’s Five Elements Great Escape technique had already been exposed on the battlefield. There was no need to conceal it any further, so he calmly replied, "My innate Divine Power is the Five Elements Great Escape. I have condensed a Five Elements Dao Crystal, which is why I can use the Five Elements Divine Techniques. Additionally, I also practice the Sword Dao..."

Five Elements Great Escape!

In an instant, everyone understood, all being powerful Daluo Initial Immortals themselves, they naturally knew the reputation of the Five Elements Great Escape.

Practitioners of the Five Elements Great Escape Divine Ability are unharmed by the Five Elements and can wield the Five Elements Divine Techniques. Not to mention anything else, simply the fact that they’re unharmed by the Five Elements is incredibly powerful. After all, there are countless Divine Powers in the world, but most magical treasures belong to the Five Elements. With the Five Elements Great Escape, one is unharmed by the Five Elements. How can you beat such an opponent?

Chen Chong said enviously, "Legend has it that with the Five Elements Great Escape, one can practice the Five Elements Techniques. The more powerful the technique, the more formidable the resulting Dao Crystal, the stronger the combat power. Lin Chen, you must have practiced some powerful techniques to be able to fight across realms, right?"

Lin Chen humbly responded, "It’s decent."

Someone curiously asked, "I saw you use the Wood Dao Divine Ability, releasing the Taotie Divine Tree. What kind of technique is that?"

Lin Chen answered, "From the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain, the Divine Spring All-Wood Technique of the Dragon Mountain Sect. I once joined the Dragon Mountain Sect, which is how I received this teaching..."

Not wanting everyone to continue prying into his techniques, Lin Chen changed the subject, "Team leader, during the previous battle, I saw someone rush into the Demon Camp. What was that about?"

Kong Wenlong, though also curious about Lin Chen’s background, knew better than to press on when Lin Chen deliberately diverted the topic. He replied, "The purpose of this battle was to investigate why the Immortal Demon Channel opened ahead of time. The First Corps attacked the main camp to draw out many Quasi-Saints, pushing close to the Demon Camp, all to provide an opportunity for those with the Space Divine Ability to act."

Lin Chen pressed on, "What were the results, and what happened with the explosion in the Immortal Demon Channel? Were our people trying to destroy it?"

Kong Wenlong shook his head, "It was our people who did it, but I don’t know the specifics. After all, I’m just a division leader, such secrets are not for me to know."

Seeing that Kong Wenlong was also unaware of the details, Lin Chen thought for a moment, then walked aside, took out a Communication Stone, and sent a message to Sun Yixiao, the Saint of Thieves.

He planned to meet with Sun Yixiao to see if he could glean some inside information.

After all, he and Sun Yixiao were friends, and he hadn’t even greeted him since his arrival.

Sun Yixiao’s reply came very quickly, "Eh, you’ve come to War God Mansion, kid? Where are you?"

Lin Chen replied, "I am currently serving as the team leader of the Ninth Division Third Squad of the First Corps, stationed below the defensive line. I also took part in that battle earlier. I saw you emerge from the Demon Camp, so I wanted to greet you."

"Wait up!"

A few minutes later, a figure crossed the sky, flew over the defense line, and headed straight for the skies above the camp.

Seeing Sun Yixiao in midair, Lin Chen couldn’t help but give a wry smile. We could have met privately; why make such a grand gesture?

Sun Yixiao identified the military flag and flew directly towards the Ninth Division. Then, without any reservation, he hovered in midair and called out, "Lin Kid, where are you?"

Lin Chen felt an urge to cover his face with his hand and couldn’t help but say, "Senior, I’m right here."

Sun Yixiao’s gaze swiftly turned toward him, and upon seeing Lin Chen, his eyes lit up. In a flash, he was standing in front of Lin Chen, examining him up and down. His eyes shone with surprise as he exclaimed, "Hey, not bad. You’ve improved a lot during the time we haven’t seen each other..."
