Chapter 593: Chapter 613: Success or Failure Depends on This Moment, Let’s Bet on It! _1

The mountain range of Mount Taiyue stretched thousands of miles with steep and desolate peaks that supported no human population.

Lin Chen found a hidden cave and entered it, even moving a giant rock to seal the entrance for extra concealment.

Once the Water and Fire Mirror was taken out of the Spatial Ring, the Spiritual Qi would surge and maybe cause a phenomenon in the sky. Even though he’d traveled far, it was wise to be careful.

Who knew if the opponents had some special means?

After confirming that the entrance was sealed, Lin Chen took out a flashlight and turned on the diffused lighting mode, illuminating the entire cave.

Only then did Lin Chen take the Water and Fire Mirror out of the Spatial Ring. As soon as it appeared, a powerful Spiritual Qi column suddenly burst out in a spectacular scene.

What rich Spiritual Qi!

Lin Chen had been to the Yaochi and Wuhua Ponds, both of which were lands of spiritual energy, but compared to the spiritual energy gushing out from the Water and Fire Mirror now, those places were like apprentice witches meeting a Great Witch.

Lin Chen didn’t pay attention to the gushing Spiritual Qi, instead, he took out a bottle of water and washed the Water and Fire Mirror clean.

The Water and Fire Mirror resembled an ancient bronze mirror with a smooth surface despite a hazy appearance. Both sides were mirrors, but one side was blue and the other red. Complex and simple patterns adorned the mirror surface and the frame.

After studying it for a long time, Lin Chen couldn’t figure out how to manipulate the Water and Fire Mirror.

Lin Chen let out a helpless sigh. In the end, he was a cultivator, not a true practitioner, and he did not possess the skills that practitioners had in using Magical Treasures.

In just a short while, the Spiritual Qi spewed out by the Water and Fire Mirror had filled the entire giant cave, making the air so full of Qi that even breathing it in induced an exhilarating feeling.

Lin Chen glanced at the Water and Fire Mirror, which gushed out Spiritual Qi without stopping, and pondered. The reason for the alternating winter and summer phenomena in the entire area was clearly due to the Water and Fire Mirror. How much energy would be required to create such a scene covering hundreds of miles?

The amount of Spiritual Qi in here must be incredibly terrifying, right?

Realizing this, Lin Chen wondered, could he take the Breaking Yuan Pill and attempt to breakthrough the Innate realm?

Chu Jiaxue had told Lin Chen that beyond the Innate realm, Spiritual Qi was consolidated into a pill. This stage was called the Golden Core Stage, a true starting point for immortal cultivators to step away from their mortal bodies and have a long life. To reach the Golden Core stage was to truly step onto the main road.

It was precisely because of this that the Cultivation World had the saying: below the Golden Core, all are ants.

Should he take a gamble?

What if he failed?

Lin Chen hesitated for only a few seconds before making a decision.

Take a gamble.

The Breaking Yuan Pill was found, the Water and Fire Mirror was stolen, and he didn’t know what dangers he would face in the Cave World. The more strength he had, the more self-preservation he would have.

Moreover, since he stole the Water and Fire Mirror, there was a chance that his identity might be revealed. After all, Han Qinglei had seen him before and had said that Lin Chen looked familiar. What if he remembered?

If his identity was exposed, he would face not only the Han Family but perhaps the cultivators of the entire world, including Ji Yusheng and those practitioners from the Cave World.

If he lacked strength, he would undoubtedly be killed cleanly by his opponents.

He would gamble!

Success or failure all depended on this!

If successful, he would have enough strength to protect himself. If he failed, he would run away immediately!

When the Spiritual Qi in the cave could get no denser, Lin Chen took out the Breaking Yuan Pill that he had acquired from Liu Sansheng, crushed it, and swallowed it down.

The medicinal effect of the Breaking Yuan pill permeated throughout his body, and Lin Chen felt as if he had become a black hole of Spiritual Qi, frantically absorbing the surrounding Qi.

The Spiritual Qi that filled the entire cave surged like a river flowing into the sea, rushing into Lin Chen’s body and ultimately gathering in his Dantian.

At this moment, Lin Chen’s Dantian was also undergoing tremendous changes, like the vicissitudes of life and the mutation of mountains and rivers. With more and more Spiritual Qi, it gradually turned into a viscous liquid, then slowly transformed into a solid state.

As Lin Chen rapidly absorbed Spiritual Qi, the Qi in the cave was quickly consumed. Although the Qi gushing out of the Water and Fire Mirror was fast, it couldn’t keep up with Lin Chen’s swallowing speed.

Lin Chen grew anxious, picked up the Water and Fire Mirror, and aimed it directly at himself.

Lin Chen’s frantic swallowing of Spiritual Qi seemed to have triggered some switch in the Water and Fire Mirror. The Spiritual Qi inside the mirror surged out at an accelerated speed, at least ten times faster than before, pouring directly into Lin Chen’s body.

The previously slowed changes in his Dantian started moving again.

After absorbing the Spiritual Qi so frenziedly for an unknown amount of time, the commotion in his Dantian gradually subsided.

In his Dantian, a golden Inner Pill quietly floated, emitting a faint golden light. Each time it flickered, there was a powerful force, like a dormant thunderbolt, its potential giving chills to those who could sense it.

Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes, his pupils seemingly golden, shimmering like a divine spirit.

Lin Chen’s emotions surged, and he jumped up in excitement.

He did it!
