Quasi-Saint!
Can, indeed can!
Lin Chen was delighted. His wife had furthered her strength, ascending to Quasi-Saint, which ant he could lean on her support from then on.
And who wouldn’t prefer supporting his wife over anyone else?
Although this adventure was perilous, the gains were still good.
Zhen Liuxue had taken a major step forward in comprehending the Heavenly Dao. Though her strength might not have increased much, her capability to apply this understanding in using Divine Powers would be perfected and seamless.
Chu Jiaxue had genuinely advanced to Quasi-Saint. Now, Lin Chen had three Quasi-Saints by his side. Should another Quasi-Saint act pretentiously in his presence, he could directly knock their teeth out!
Lin Chen left and headed to the next eting point where he successfully regrouped with other disciples led by another avatar.
After retrieving his avatar, Lin Chen inherited all the mories of the journey.
Aside from devising so strategies when crossing the Domain Gate, which caused a slight delay, his return to the Black Sky Demon Domain and the Great Wilderness Palace proceeded smoothly.
Zhen Liuxue and Chu Jiaxue had used up much of the Holy Taoism Ball’s insights, though so still remained. Lin Chen no longer sought to push further, as these were intended for Quasi-Saints and would not be as effective at the peak of Daluo realm due to realm discrepancies.
Duan Tian was using a borrowed body to return to the Quasi-Saint realm. The item might be useful to him, but Lin Chen wouldn’t entertain that idea.
Should Duan Tian be lucky and comprehend a breakthrough, that could complicate matters.
It was best to keep Duan Tian as a reliable fighter, without burdening him with other expectations.
Lin Chen led everyone back to Dawn Camp, where he t with Master Floating Cloud who had stayed behind.
"Master, has anything happened during my absence?"
Master Floating Cloud shook his head: "The Great Wilderness Palace has been aggressively expanding its territory. There have been many battles, but the palace lord hasn’t assigned us any. She stated that by accepting us, it was not intended to treat us royally."
Lin Chen sneered, "Don’t mind them. Those who are incompetent resort to petty talk. If they were truly capable, the palace lord wouldn’t have needed an outsider like for tasks."
Master Floating Cloud asked with a smile, "So, how did your mission go?"
Lin Chen nodded, "We circled under the Demon Emperor’s watch, and even a Quasi-Saint tried to secretly manipulate us. Thankfully, our plans were sound and we completed the mission without major incidents."
Master Floating Cloud smiled, "That’s good to hear. I’ve been quite worried while you were out."
Lin Chen chuckled, "Thank you for your concern, Master."
Master Floating Cloud sighed and said, "I’m safely here, what’s there to worry about? It’s you, racing around for a safe place for us all, risking yourself. It makes , an old man, feel rather useless."
Lin Chen guided Master Floating Cloud to sit down and comforted him: "Master, you were originally an expert, like a free-spirited crane. Now, for the sake of the Immortal Realm and Dragon Mountain Sect, you’ve entered the battlefield and made many sacrifices."
"In the past, when my abilities were ager, it was you who protected , which led to beco who I am today. Now that I have so abilities, just rest easy, Master. If there’s anything, I’ll take care of it."
"Although we don’t know how long we will be here, we’ll surely return. We won’t end up like the ancestors of the Great Wilderness Clan who settled here, married, and procreated."
Master Floating Cloud looked gratified. "Speaking of which, I feel quite ashad as your master. Although I took you as my disciple, you haven’t even visited Dragon Mountain, and I haven’t really taught you for long..."
Lin Chen smiled warmly, "Master, the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique, the peerless skill of our sect, was taught to by Master. Without learning the Cloud Dream Technique, comprehending the several peerless Heart thods I later encountered would not have been as manageable."
"I admit, I didn’t learn too many cultivation techniques or extraordinary skills at the Dragon Mountain Sect, but I did grasp the very essence of it, setting the optimal foundation for my later path."
Master Floating Cloud laughed, "That’s because you have excellent comprehension. Many others have studied the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics, but only you truly understood and mastered it."
"It’s all fate."
Lin Chen chuckled, "When I first arrived, I t my master, and everything since then has been predestined."
Master Floating Cloud stroked his beard and laughed, "Heaven has been good to , to the Dragon Mountain Sect. In the future, the sect will certainly be proud of you, and I, this surrogate master, might even be rembered for my greatest achievent, which isn’t how powerful I am or how many rits I’ve accumulated, but that I took you as my disciple."
Lin Chen offered a complint, "Master, your discerning eyes recognize the pearl, as expected."
Lin Chen didn’t deny being the "pride of the Dragon Mountain Sect." Considering the current pace, as long as he didn’t die, he was destined to be incredibly formidable, perhaps even legendary, due to this Immortal-Demon War.
Yes, Lin Chen was that confident!
Leaving aside everything else, after the Demon Emperor ascended to saintliness, it wasn’t like no one had ever targeted the Magic Balls of Saintly Taoism within the Demon Saint Valley; it was just that no one had succeeded before.
Hadn’t he succeeded? Wasn’t that making history?
Escaping safe and sound from right under the Demon Emperor’s watch, wasn’t that making history?
Though saints were incredibly powerful, they were not omnipotent.
As they were chatting, Shi Haoyu, the Guard Commander of the Great Wilderness Palace, ca again.
"Lin Chen, the Palace Lord summons you."
Shi Haoyu looked at Lin Chen with a complex expression, having received news that Lin Chen, leading the Human Clan powerhouses, had attacked the ancestral grounds of the Quasi-Saint Baili Zhan, leveling Baili Town and utterly slaughtering many strong mbers of the Baili Family.
After the massacre of the Baili Family, an abnormality occurred within the Demon Saint Valley inside the Demon God Temple, causing an explosion; for a long ti, the temple was in chaos, and the murderer was not caught.
Knowing about the Holy Taoism Ball, Shi Haoyu roughly guessed that this matter was related to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen had actually managed to do such a thing!
He even slaughtered the ancestral grounds of the Baili Family and created such a massive issue, yet he returned safely without a scratch!
In Shi Haoyu’s eyes, Lin Chen and his group were remnants and defeated generals of the Human Clan from the Immortal-Demon Battlefield, coming to the Great Wilderness Palace seeking refuge from calamities; thus, he had always looked down on Lin Chen with a deep-seated sense of superiority.
Now, seeing Lin Chen again, Shi Haoyu felt a peculiar sense. A person he usually despised and considered inferior, suddenly accomplishing a significant deed, a feat he himself couldn’t achieve even if he gave his life for it his entire life, wasn’t this a slap in the face?
Aren’t you proud?
Don’t you think you’re aweso?
Why don’t you give it a try?
Give it a try and perish!
Lin Chen, however, didn’t care about Shi Haoyu’s gaze, as he had never considered this Guard Commander worthy of his notice.
At the pinnacle of Daluo, who dares to show off in front of him?
The ones he dealt with were all various Quasi-Saints, and the opponents and enemies he provoked were also Quasi-Saints. You, a re Guard Commander, what level are you to show your superiority in front of ?
