Chapter 2995: Chapter 3015: Could This Matter Concern a Saint?
Ranked top ten throughout the Immortal Realm?
Lin Chen was startled.
He knew the Linglong Tower was strong, but was it that formidable?
Seeing that True Person Tai Xu did not press further, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, “Such a powerful Innate Spiritual Treasure, it’s truly a pity it disappeared. With its power, its master must be quite formidable.”
True Person Tai Xu said with a laugh, “Such an Innate Spiritual Treasure naturally cannot be owned by just anyone. If one’s strength is not enough to possess it, it’s like a child holding gold in a bustling market, quite easily attracting deadly disasters.”
“Its master, alas, has long perished, all are ancient, bygone stories now. You should not inquire further, this matter is not for you to explore. Be careful, or you might attract trouble to yourself.”
When True Person Tai Xu said this, his gaze on Lin Chen seed profound, his words carrying a hint of a cautionary warning.
Lin Chen’s heart and mind tensed up, hoping True Person Tai Xu hadn’t suspected anything.
Lin Chen dared not ask further and said with a laugh, “Alright, I won’t ask. It just suddenly ca to mind, a casual remark.”
True Person Tai Xu humd softly, saying softly, “Above man is Immortal, above Immortal is Saint. The Immortal Path is boundless; one must always have a heart of reverence, otherwise, disaster will eventually strike one day.”
Lin Chen respectfully replied, “Thank you, Senior, for your instruction.”
True Person Tai Xu said with a laugh, “Each generation excels the one before. Take good care of your life. After this battle, perhaps you will also step into the Quasi-Saint Realm, and see a different Heaven and Earth.”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “I’m a person who fears death and is timid. On the battlefield, earning rits is secondary, saving my life is my priority. If there is real danger, I’ll definitely be the first to run!”
True Person Tai Xu simply laughed and made no comnt.
“Alright, I’ve said what I needed to say, you guys chat.”
True Person Tai Xu drifted away from the camp, leaving the three people in the tent behind.
Wen ngsheng and Gong Jianying had been listening all along without saying a word. Now that their master had left, they finally completely relaxed.
Gong Jianying said joyfully, “Lin Chen, you’re impressive! To have established such a reputation in just a few years!”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Senior Sister Gong, why have you also co? This battlefield is extrely dangerous.”
Gong Jianying said with a laugh, “I am a physician, after all. Being on the battlefield doesn’t necessarily an I have to fight on the front lines. Helping to save injured soldiers in the rear also contributes my part, and it can also improve my dical skills, killing two birds with one stone.”
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Gong Jianying’s strength was not bad, but knowing her kind-hearted nature, Lin Chen knew she was not suitable for the battlefield; hearing her say she was only here to serve as a physician gave him peace of mind.
Gong Jianying was beautiful and kind-hearted, and also very friendly towards him. During the destruction of the Demon Race’s teleportation plan, it was thanks to the Explosive Talisman she gave him; otherwise, with Lin Chen’s abilities, he would have probably only thought about fleeing, never considering blowing up the Sacrificial Altar.
Wen ngsheng said with a laugh, “Master is detached in nature, seldom caring about worldly matters or people, yet he seems quite concerned about Junior Brother. Junior Brother and our master indeed have a unique connection.”
Lin Chen shook the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror in his hand, saying with a laugh, “It’s just the elder loving the house and its crow.”
Wen ngsheng said with a laugh, “That’s certainly one reason, but more so because of what you have done, catching the eye of Master. This kind of connection is not sothing everyone can have.”
He paused, then Wen ngsheng cautioned, “The matter you just asked about, involving the tower, pertains to a major issue, and is considered a forbidden topic. So, no matter how curious you are, or how much you want to investigate, it’s best not to delve further, or it could easily lead to catastrophe.”
Wen ngsheng knew too?
Lin Chen concealed his thoughts and said with a laugh, “Hmm, just curious and asked. I didn’t expect such a vast connection. With such power even you are cautious, it must indeed involve soone extrely significant.”
Wen ngsheng said with a laugh, “That is only natural. In any case, if it’s irrelevant, you should forget about it. If it’s relevant, it’s best you forget about it too; avoid ddling with fate.”
Fate?
Senior Brother Wen, I appreciate your kindness, but I’ve already been involved with this fate.
If it weren’t for Linglong Tower and Qi, Lin Chen might have died countless tis already. Thus, he must investigate this matter thoroughly, no matter how great the fate he might ddle with.
Both True Person Tai Xu and Wen ngsheng repeatedly warned Lin Chen not to get involved in this matter, which shows it indeed involves significant stakes.
Lin Chen silently speculated. Even True Person Tai Xu doesn’t want to ddle with fate, who could be involved in all this?
If it were a Quasi-Saint, True Person Tai Xu shouldn’t have this attitude, right?
His strength ranks among the very top within the entire Quasi-Saint circle of the Immortal Realm; who does he need to fear?
There seems to be only one answer.
Saint!
Is it the Immortal Emperor, or another Saint?
Sun Yixiao once said that though Saints are few, there are still others besides the Immortal Emperor. They’ve already transcended, and the transformations of life and death in the world an little to them. Thus, they have long stepped out of the Three Realms, not bounded by the Five Elents, and coldly observe the changes in the world.
If it were not for matters involving them directly, they generally wouldn’t intervene.
If this matter really involves a Saint, then it seems many speculations can be made. The first intuitive guess would be that Qi’s previous owner offended a certain Saint, or, caught in the cri of possessing treasure, Linglong Tower caught the eye of a Saint. Then, a group of Quasi-Saints attacked him, wanting to seize Linglong Tower. Qi’s previous owner refused to submit, choosing death over compliance, and ultimately, they all burned together. In his dying monts, he sent Linglong Tower away, which finally ended up in the Barbaric Boundary and beca Ghost Tower.
Of course, it might be a different story, but either way, this matter likely involves a Saint.
Lin Chen restrained his heart and mind and said with a laugh, “Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother.”
Wen ngsheng said with a laugh, “It’s a pity it’s warti; otherwise, such a reunion day would surely call for fine dishes and wine to talk our hearts out.”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Let’s save that wine for later, after we finish this battle, we’ll drink properly.”
Wen ngsheng said, “Good!”
After chatting a bit more, Lin Chen took his leave, as the battle was about to begin soon and there were many matters to attend to in the camp, leaving no ti to waste here.
Gong Jianying escorted Lin Chen out of the tent and soon encountered the Thousand Demon Monarch, lying on a lounge chair.
After a brief chat with the Thousand Demon Monarch and declining his invitation for a small gathering, he returned to the camp.
Back in the Ninth Division’s camp, wherever he went, intense gazes landed on Lin Chen, filled with undisguised admiration.
Legendary!
Lin Chen was so young and yet had made connections with so many Quasi-Saints, even owing them favors. If soone had heard this before, they would have said it was a boast, but now that the fact was right before their eyes, they had to believe it.
It was awe-inspiring.
Lin Chen, under various admiring gazes, returned to the Third Squad, and as soon as he entered, he was surrounded by many people.
Lin Chen looked at the pairs of eyes burning with the Gossip Fire and spread his hands helplessly, “It’s just a coincidence. My strength is just this; don’t look at with these eyes, making feel like I’m not even human anymore…”
