Chapter 941: Chapter 961: The Thousand Mechanism Umbrella, A Versatile Magical Treasure_1

Lin Chen looked up at Su Mubai.

Su Mubai smiled gently at Lin Chen, his eyes clear and sincere.

After a moment, Lin Chen let out a breath, his brows unfurled.

"You’re right, he will eventually reveal his true nature. As long as I cultivate diligently, there will come a day when I will slay him!"

Su Mubai laughed, "Others may not have the ability, but you are the one chosen by the Emperor’s Seal. As long as you are strong enough and righteous in your heart, one day, you will become the new Human Emperor. At that time, all cultivators in the world must obey your orders. Will you still be afraid to annihilate a few evil sects?"

Lin Chen smiled bitterly, "It’s too early to talk about that. Right now, I don’t understand the seal at all. It didn’t help me against such a wicked, cold-blooded and ruthless person. It just watched as I fought for my life, completely indifferent..."

After pondering a moment, Su Mubai said, "The will of the Emperor’s Seal is that of the entire Human Clan. The Refining Path has existed since ancient times. Although there are people killing and eating each other, it is nothing more than survival of the fittest within the human race. The people of a city may not necessarily be regarded as important by it."

After thinking about it, Lin Chen felt that Su Mubai’s words made sense.

A few hundred thousand people are nothing compared to the disaster befalling the entire Human Clan. How many people have died in the wars throughout history? Countless, right?

He felt that this is a big deal because he only saw the tragic scene of the city filled with white bones. But for the Emperor’s Seal, which spans the river of history, this is nothing.

Although he suffered a miserable defeat against Chen Tianqiong, he didn’t face certain death. The fact that the seal didn’t care for him doesn’t seem like a problem, does it?

After all, the Emperor’s Seal is not his nanny.

"That makes sense. No matter how powerful the Emperor’s Seal is, it is ultimately just a Magical Treasure. To do anything, the Human Clan must rely on themselves."

Lin Chen laughed, finally understanding completely.

People must rely on themselves!

"Shall we go back?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Back to Jianqi City."

Su Mubai nodded apologetically, "I’m sorry that I couldn’t be of any help."

Lin Chen laughed, "This was my decision, so you don’t have to worry. In any case, I’m used to such dangers. To put it arrogantly, what doesn’t kill me will only make me stronger."

Jianqi City.

After listening to Lin Chen’s account, Yue Shanhe was shocked.

Lin Chen was just too strong!

He single-handedly destroyed the Three Ghosts Gate!

It is truly deserving that he is the direct disciple of the Cave Master - even he, the Sect Master, couldn’t compare to such combat power!

Yue Shanhe bowed seriously, his attitude respectful, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for avenging the 400,000 lost souls of Kong Yuan City!"

Lin Chen waved his hand, "No need to worry about it. It was my duty. With this matter resolved, I will return to Fei Pu Peak."

Without staying in Jianqi City, Lin Chen directly took Lu Daoren and returned to Fei Pu Peak.

While recuperating at the Cliffside Cottage, Lin Chen began to sort out all the spoils of war.

Lin Chen had no use for the Cultivation Techniques, books, Jade Slips, and other items that he had packed up from the Three Ghosts Gate’s sect treasure house, as they were only suitable for disciples below the Nascent Soul Stage.

Nascent Soul Stage disciples, although not considered very powerful in any sect, were deemed as key disciples and usually received their sect’s attention. They had access to personal guidance from elders and didn’t need these items from the sect treasure house.

Other than these, there were large amounts of alchemy materials, numerous completed elixirs, many Magical Treasures, refinement materials, and so on. Their value was quite considerable since this was a sect’s treasure house.

The real treasures were in the spatial rings of Chen Tianqiong, his son, and several other Nascent Soul Experts since cultivators usually carry their valuables with them.

After a thorough investigation, Lin Chen finally put all the useful and valuable items in front of him.

Chen Xinghe’s Pill Furnace, a rare Nine Curves Refining Furnace in the cultivation world, was considered a treasure among Pill Furnaces. Compared to ordinary Pill Furnaces, its unique structure and manufacturing process greatly improved the pill success rate by ensuring that the alchemy materials were heated more evenly and easier to control.

The Great Luo Danjing, half a book, most of which detailed various alchemy methods and the pill prescriptions and refining techniques for five elixirs.

A white token with the character "guǐ" (ghost) on it; Lin Chen examined it carefully and found that it was made of human bones, the token of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect’s disciples, as mentioned by Chen Xinghe.

A defensive Magical Treasure, the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella.

The umbrella was famous in the Magical Treasure World for its flexibility and multiple forms. The most common forms were umbrella, spear, and cannon shape.

When in the shape of an umbrella, the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella served as a defense. Its canopy was made from Flood Dragon Skin, and defensive array formations were drawn on it. Its structure was made from the incredibly resilient Bone Spurs of a Thousand-Year Devil Lizard, capable of withstanding extremely powerful attacks.

When the umbrella took the shape of a spear, the spearhead was made of the single horn of a Spirit-breaking Rhinoceros, renowned for its ability to break through Spiritual Qi shields. It was extremely hard, resistant to blades, and highly effective against Spiritual Qi shields.

As a cannon shape, the user simply needed to infuse Spiritual energy from the handle at the back. The Spiritual energy would be compressed to the extreme before transforming into a Spirit Qi Cannonball, which would be shot out at an extremely fast speed, long range, and with amazing power. It also had a powerful explosion effect.

Creating a Thousand Mechanism Umbrella was extremely difficult, and there were probably only a few in the entire Barren Wilderness. However, Lin Chen didn’t expect Chen Tianqiong to have one...
