Chapter 1547: Chapter 1547: Artifact Spirit, Golden Light Child
After following Dragon Fang’s suggestion, Lin Chen exposed a flaw during his battle with the Heavenly Level puppet, and then was defeated by the spiritual puppet of Heavenly Level combat power.
Seeing Lin Chen’s defeat, Zi Ling immediately felt pity for him, because from the recent battle between Lin Chen and the spiritual puppet with Heavenly Level combat power, Lin Chen almost won.
Zi Ling initially thought that if Lin Chen defeated the spiritual puppet with Heavenly Level combat power, would there be some unusual phenomenon, or a reward from the stele.
Yun Kaige, Shi An, Liu Yong, and others, upon seeing Lin Chen’s defeat, all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because Lin Chen’s combat power was terribly frightening. If he kept winning and even defeated the spiritual puppet of Heavenly Level combat power, they would lose too much face.
With Lin Chen’s defeat, a figure suddenly emerged on the stele, condensing into golden light, unexpectedly in the form of a child.
"Lin Chen, Earth-level top combat power, you’re quite impressive. If you were a bit stronger, you might have managed to defeat that spiritual puppet of Heavenly Level combat power."
"You should know that in hundreds of thousands of years, only ten people have reached the Heavenly Level combat power on the Tianliu Continent. Hundreds of thousands of years later, unexpectedly, someone like you has appeared again."
The Golden Light Child looked at Lin Chen and nodded with satisfaction.
"Senior, you’re overpraising me. My ability to defeat those spiritual puppets before was just good luck, no way I could defeat the spiritual puppet of Heavenly Level combat power."
Lin Chen responded with a smile, showing great respect to the Golden Light Child.
Looking at Lin Chen, the Golden Light Child slightly smiled at his words.
As the Artifact Spirit of this Combat Power Stele, it was more than clear about Lin Chen’s previous battle. Lin Chen indeed had a chance to defeat that Heavenly Level combat power spiritual puppet, or he wouldn’t have earned such high praise.
However, Lin Chen seemed to deliberately hide his strength, and the Combat Power Stele Artifact Spirit wasn’t sure why, so it didn’t expose Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen, are you mistaken? You treat me so disrespectfully, yet you are so polite to the Artifact Spirit of the stele."
"Don’t you know, if I were at my peak, this kind of Artifact Spirit wouldn’t even be worthy of carrying my shoes. I could slash it with one sword."
Dragon Fang felt dissatisfied with Lin Chen’s attitude towards the stele’s Artifact Spirit.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen ignored Dragon Fang.
Jokingly, Dragon Fang could be subdued by the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, but it’s different with the Artifact Spirit of this stele. The spiritual puppet it created could surpass Lin Chen, showing its true strength.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have passed the trial of the Combat Power Hall, and you can all enter the Treasure Canyon to undergo trials. The Treasure Canyon is where our Combat Power Hall stores treasures, filled with endless opportunities. What opportunities you gain will depend on your own fortune."
The Golden Light Child spoke calmly to the crowd.
Hearing the words of the Golden Light Child, everyone in the hall’s eyes brightened instantly, their hearts filled with excitement.
"Senior, could I possibly delay entering the Treasure Canyon and come at a later date?"
Lin Chen asked the Golden Light Child abruptly.
Lin Chen guessed that the Treasure Canyon mentioned by the Golden Light Child is the place with the exotic treasure, Water of Life. Since Lin Chen promised Xiao Chitai, he naturally needed to strive for it.
But currently, Lin Chen’s cultivation is too low, so he intends to improve his cultivation before vying for it.
After all, among the group, Yun Kaige, Shi An, Wang Shuo, Liu Yong, and those martial artists from the Black Yan Hall might appear. Although Lin Chen possesses the Flame Explosion Talisman, used for large-area damage it might be a treasure, but for individual opponents, it’s not that effective.
Hence, Lin Chen decided to first enhance his own strength.
"You may, since you have passed the assessment, you have earned the qualification to enter the trial. However, if you leave this place, when you return with a breakthrough in cultivation, you must still maintain the combat power threshold to enter the Treasure Canyon."
The Golden Light Child responded to Lin Chen.
Hearing this, Lin Chen immediately nodded, showing great happiness.
"Thank you, senior."
Lin Chen cupped his fists as a gesture of gratitude and then turned to leave.
"Lin Chen, where are you going? Aren’t you coming with us to the Treasure Canyon to seek opportunity?"
Seeing Lin Chen suddenly about to leave, Zi Ling flew over in front of Lin Chen, asking.
If Lin Chen were with them, given Lin Chen’s smart mind, they would find it much easier in the Treasure Canyon.
However, if Lin Chen left, Zi Ling might not be able to handle Yun Kaige alone.
"Senior Sister Zi Ling, I have some matters to attend to first. Wait for me to come back, it won’t take long."
"Until I return, try to keep yourselves safe and avoid conflict with them."
Lin Chen spoke calmly to Zi Ling.
Lin Chen planned to return to Yang Flame Island, set up a Teleportation Array, leave the Tianliu Continent, return to the Mysterious Heaven Continent, and then break through in cultivation.
But these words, Lin Chen couldn’t tell Zi Ling.
"Don’t worry, Junior Brother; we will wait for you to come back. With those talismans you gave us, Yun Kaige and the others can’t do anything to us."
"Just go and take care of your matters."
Even though Zi Ling didn’t understand what Lin Chen needed to do, she trusted Lin Chen unconditionally.
After instructing everyone, Lin Chen immediately turned and left.
"Does anyone else wish to leave?"
The Golden Light Child looked at everyone, asking calmly.
Hearing this, everyone shook their heads.
Joking, with a place of exotic treasure and opportunity right in front of them, they all wanted to fight for the opportunity. Why would they leave?
They thought Lin Chen was extremely foolish.
Lin Chen didn’t care about how others perceived him, instead, he turned and left the hall.
Outside the hall, there were many martial artists who had been expelled earlier.
At this moment, when everyone saw Lin Chen walk out, they were filled with doubt.
"Young Master Lin Chen, why have you come out, and walked out at that? Why weren’t you expelled?"
"And only you walked out, where are the others?"
"Yes, is there some opportunity inside?"
As soon as Lin Chen came out, the crowd started asking questions.
"They went to participate in the trial; I have something urgent and won’t go for now."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have pressing matters to attend to, so I must bid farewell for now."
