Chapter 332 - Fierce Gale World Survivors!
"Fierce Gale World survivor, Lin Chao, pays respect to Your Excellency!"
After that bushy-bearded burly man burst into wild laughter, a person came forward to salute. It was precisely Lin Chao!
And how was the present Lin Chao some Crystal Formation Realm martial artist? He was shockingly already a Sea Transformation Realm expert!
Turned out that when he was traveling together with the Tranquil Cloud Sect, he had been concealing his strength all along. Even Ye Yuan surprisingly did not perceive it!
That bushy-bearded burly man shot Lin Chao a glance and said in a booming voice, "Was this Six Extreme Seals Grand Array broken by you?"
Lin Chao replied respectfully, "Yes! Us survivors have been lying low in this Endless World's Southern Domain for thousands of years and finally found the way to crack the formation and the location of the seal! Today, the fortune of cracking the formation is truly my Purple Mansion Sect disciples' several thousand years' long-cherished wish!"
The bushy-bearded burly man chortled with laughter and said, "Hahaha! Also considered that you guys have the heart! Back then, leaving you all in the Endless World was the divine stroke of the previous generation's Wind Emperor! To think that it finally bore fruit today! You're called Lin Chao, right? Good, I've remembered you. I'll report your contributions to the higher-ups!"
Lin Chao was overjoyed as he said, "Lin Chao dare not claim credit for himself! My Purple Mansion Sect all swallowed humiliation and shouldered heavy burdens to reside in the Southern Domain land just for today!"
The bushy-bearded burly man nodded and said, "Alright, you don't need to say anymore. I know well in my heart! Your strength is decent. It's just that such an appearance completely became this Endless World's wuss-like look!"
Lin Chao smiled and said, "Didn't our Fierce Gale World want to enter the Endless World in order to become like this?"
The bushy-bearded burly man was stunned, but then he laughed loudly and said, "Haha, what you said is correct! Oh, right, I'm called Lan Bao. These three are my clansman, Lan Hu, Lan Feng, Lan Yun."
Lin Chao clasped his hands and said with a salute, "I've seen the three lords!"
Lan Bao waved his hands and said, "No need to be so formal. Your strength is equal to theirs. Just address each other as brothers will do! This Six Extreme Seals Grand Array is unbelievably powerful. Although you broke the formation's base from this side, only Sea Transformation Realms can pass through right now. I've already informed the higher-ups. They will send people over very soon to continue cracking the grand array. Wanting to completely link the two worlds will probably still need half a year to a year's time! During this period, we have to guard this passageway well."
Lin Chao nodded and said, "What Big Brother Lan said is right! Actually, the Six Extreme Seals Grand Array is within a mystic realm in the Endless World's Southern Domain. I snuck inside the team exploring the mystic realm and came together this time."
As he spoke, Lin Chao briefly summarized the situation after entering the mystic realm to Lan Bao.
Lan Bao was completely indifferent when he heard it and said, "Turns out it's a bunch of Crystal Formation Realm little bastards. The few of us is enough! Brother Lin Chao, exterminate them together with the four of us brothers!"
Lin Chao said respectfully, "Yes!"
. . . . . .
After a long while, the rocking Eternal Splendor Palace finally quietened down. But it was already in a big mess.
The Eternal Splendor Palace had clearly been reinforced with array formations before. Although the swaying was extremely intense, it was not damaged at all.
"This . . . What on earth happened? Why did it shake so violently just now?" Wu Zhao's words were directed at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan shook his head, but suddenly thought of something and his expression involuntarily changed drastically!
His figure moved and came to a Purple Mansion Sect disciple's side. Grabbing his collar, he asked, "Quickly say! Where is Lin Chao?"
That Purple Mansion Sect disciple was first taken aback. Following that, he also had a sudden realization and said, "S-Senior Apprentice Brother Lin? Ah! Y-Yes, where is Senior Apprentice Brother Lin? When did Senior Apprentice Brother Lin disappear?"
Ye Yuan clenched his teeth and threw that Purple Mansion Sect disciple onto the ground.
He had been eyeing that disciple's eyes the entire time. If he lied, it definitely could not escape his eyes. That Purple Mansion Sect disciple also did not know when Lin Chao disappeared or what he went to do.
This was even stranger. The things that Lin Chao was going to do, even his fellow sect members were actually unaware!
No wonder the first time he laid eyes on Lin Chao, he had a very strange feeling. Seemed like this fellow had a problem from the start!
When Wu Zhao saw Ye Yuan lose his composure like so, he was also greatly startled. He came forward and asked, "Martial Nephew Ye, what happened? Who is this Lin Chao?"
With Wu Zhao's status, he obviously would not pay attention to a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist.
Lin Chao's disappearance made Ye Yuan's heart give rise to an intense uneasiness. He had a feeling that the earthquake earlier definitely had a link to Lin Chao!
What in the world did he do?
Ye Yuan briefly described Lin Chao's identity. In truth, he also did not know who on earth Lin Chao was.
Looking at it now, Lin Chao most likely had some undisclosable identity. And his goal of entering the mystic realm was different from his group of people!
When Wu Zhao heard Ye Yuan's words, he also could not figure it out and was somewhat uncertain.
"We'd better leave this place quickly. I keep feeling like something is about to happen." At this time, Wu Zhao clearly also sensed trouble.
Ye Yuan let out a sigh and said, "Already too late. I'm afraid that our exit is already blocked off!"
His words had yet to fade, only to see a flash of light. Five silhouettes appeared in front of everybody.
When the eight sects' disciples saw these five people, they all felt an intensely oppressive feeling. The visual shock that Lan Bao and his three brothers' wild form gave everyone was too strong!
When Wu Zhao saw Lan Bao, his eyes involuntarily became intent!
"Fifth Level Sea Transformation Realm!" Wu Zhao s.u.c.k.e.d in a cold breath.
A Fifth Level Sea Transformation Realm expert was simply not somebody that they could contend with!
One Lan Bao could take care of all of them!
But Ye Yuan's gaze stopped on Lin Chao's body and similarly felt a wave of inconceivability!
Turns out, presently, that the Eighth Level Crystal Formation Realm Lin Chao was actually already Third Level Sea Transformation Realm!
Lan Bao's group of five. One Fifth Level Sea Transformation Realm and four Third Level Sea Transformation Realm!
How were they going to fight?
Seeing such a line-up, everyone revealed despairing looks.
"Brother Lin Chao, are these people the Endless World people that explored the mystic realm together with you?" Lan Bao asked as if there was nobody else present.
Lin Chao nodded and said, "That's right! A hundred of us came on this trip. The majority of the Sea Transformation Realm elders have already been smitten down by the Heavenly Thunder Essence Locking Grand Array. Only these people are left."
Lan Bao said with a disdainful face, "A bunch of ant-like existences! Are the Endless World's people all this weak?"
Lin Chao smiled and said, "How can the Endless World's natives be our Fierce Gale World's match? Back then, if not for the Grand Yan True Sect sacrificing the entire sect's strength to seal the realm passageway, the Endless World would have been our Fierce Gale World's long ago. How could they have the opportunity to wander these several thousand years freely?"
Lan Bao guffawed when he heard that and said, "Hahaha! What Brother Lin said is right! But before long,
the Endless World will be ours!"
At this time, a Purple Mansion Sect disciple asked weakly, "Lin . . . Are you Senior Apprentice Brother Lin? Y-You said something about Fierce Gale World just now? What is happening here?"
Lin Chao looked at him and said with a smile, "You probably don't know yet, right? Our Purple Mansion Sect's upper echelons are all Fierce Gale World survivors! Our mission for staying in the Endless World is to open up the two world's passageway to welcome the Wind Emperor's arrival! Junior Apprentice Brother Wang, you and I are fellow sect apprentices. If you pledge allegiance to my Fierce Gale World now, I can give you a way out."
Chapter 333 - Battling Lin Chao!
Junior Apprentice Brother Wang clearly did not know what Fierce Gale World was. But even if he was any dumber, he also knew that Lin Chao was not an Endless World native currently!
Hearing Lin Chao's words, Junior Apprentice Brother Wang's face involuntarily became the color of dirt. For a moment, he did not know what he should do.
But at the moment, Lin Chao's gaze landed on Ye Yuan.
"Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, we meet again! This entire way, I'm really indebted to Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's care!" Lin Chao said with a smile.
Everything that was happening right now seriously far exceeded Ye Yuan's expectations.
Even if Ye Yuan calculated everything, it was also impossible to predict such a drastic change.
During this trip, the greatest adversary from start to finish was the Heavenly Sky Sect. Ye Yuan's focus would naturally be placed on Wu Zhao.
Ye Yuan obviously would not think that an Eighth Level Crystal Formation Realm could stir up such a large storm, let alone think that this mystic realm trip would actually involve the dispute between two worlds!
At this very moment, Ye Yuan finally understood what the contents of that jade slip fragment meant!
'Invasion' did not point to a powerful opponent in the Endless World, but the invasion of the Fierce Gale World!
In his previous life, Ji Qingyun was born in the Divine Realm and grew up in the Divine Realm. Most of what he knew about the Lower Realms were understood from records.
There were countless lower planes. Some worlds did not intersect with other worlds, while there were worlds with a realm passageway to other worlds.
Once this passageway opened up, the two worlds would frequently have a fierce battle!
There were even realms that would have a large-scale war erupt every few hundred years if things continued this way!
Living in such a world was unfortunate. Because they did not know when they would die.
The origin of this sort of war was normally to plunder resources. But later on, it would become a mortal feud.
Very clearly, the Fierce Gale World attempted to invade the Endless World several thousand years ago, but the passageway was sealed by the Endless World.
And now, this seal was broken by Lin Chao!
The passageway opening up again could mean that the Endless World would be plunged into an abyss of suffering from now on!
Ye Yuan's current expression was not too good either. Lin Chao suffered quite a loss at his hands. Looking at it now, seemed like he was enduring it patiently. His goal was in order to infiltrate the Eternal Splendor Palace!
Right now, Lin Chao had already completed his mission and even displayed his true strength. Using one's toes to think and one would also know that he wanted to regain face.
In truth, Ye Yuan knew that not a single person here could escape. It was just that Lin Chao was probably going to place heavy emphasis on him, right?
If it was Lin Chao alone, then things could be settled. But that bushy-bearded burly man was simply not who Ye Yuan could presently match, even if he possessed 18 sword puppets currently.
At this time, Ye Yuan was already spinning the gears in his head at full speed to think of a strategy to escape. He quietly entered Heart Like Still Water State.
Under Heart Like Still Water State, his thoughts would become even calmer and more acute!
Ye Yuan had no way of making himself maintain the Heart Like Still Water State all the way. That would exhaust too much mental strength.
But with the passing of time, Ye Yuan's cultivation in heart realm already advanced further.
The time he spent in Heart Like Still Water State now was already far longer compared to during the Dan Wu Academy's time.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Lin concealed so deeply. If Senior Apprentice Brother Lin displayed your cultivation sooner, I also wouldn't dare to show off my inadequacy in front of you. However . . ." Talking up to here, Ye Yuan's gaze became sharp. "Since you concealed your cultivation back then, then Senior Apprentice Brother Pang's score, I've noted it down!"
Looking at it now, back then when Lin Chao lured the wolf pack over, it was clearly because he did not wish to expose his strength in front of his fellow sect members.
No matter what objective Lin Chao wanted to achieve, since it was intentional and it harmed people close to him, then this was completely a different case!
Lin Chao's scheming was deep. Presently, their side had the absolute overwhelming strength. Why would he take to heart Ye Yuan's threat?
"Hur hur, what a coincidence. I also came to find Junior Apprentice Brother Ye to settle scores," Lin Chao said with a chuckle.
Ye Yuan suddenly thought of something and put away his cold expression, changing into a smile and said, "Oh, right, I nearly forgot. Looks like Senior Apprentice Brother Lin wants to take back the soul jade on me."
But these words from Ye Yuan were said to Lan Bao.
"Mm? Soul jade!"
Lan Bao had clearly also heard of the name soul jade before. Hearing Ye Yuan mention it currently, he could not help showing a curious look.
But Lin Chao was secretly alarmed and wished that he could tear Ye Yuan into pieces immediately.
This move from Ye Yuan was too ruthless!
To Sea Transformation Realm martial artists, soul jades were essentially an irresistible temptation!
Even if Lan Bao did not know the function of soul jades, Ye Yuan would likely say it out too.
This was a blatantly open plot, an undisguised sowing of dissension!
But Lin Chao was also somebody with an exceedingly sharp mind. The expression on his face did not change at all as he said to Lan Bao unperturbedly, "Prior to this, I was fortunate enough to acquire some soul jades. But along the way, the greater part of it was extorted by this brat! I was just planning on killing this brat to retrieve the soul jades to offer up to Big Brother Lan Bao!"
Although Lan Bao's strength was powerful, in terms of mind games, he clearly could not compare with Lin Chao. He involuntarily nodded and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Leaving such a priceless treasure like soul jade on a Spirit Condensation Realm brat's body, isn't that a waste of God's good gift? Quickly kill him and be done with it!"
This Lan Bao evidently had a violent and tyrannical personality. He could not even be bothered to waste any breath on these people.
Lin Chao sniggered coldly and looked at Ye Yuan. Third Level Sea Transformation Realm aura was suddenly released as he attacked Ye Yuan!
But what awaited him were sword puppets!
18 sword puppets appeared abruptly. Lin Chao instantly fell into the Lesser Nine Revolutions Interlocking Formation.
Lin Chao was frightened by this scene at first and thought that Ye Yuan unleashed some mighty move. After he saw that these sword puppets only had late-stage Crystal Formation Realm strength, he involuntarily sneered coldly and said, "Paltry tricks!"
But he discovered very soon that he was too naïve!
These dense sword shadows forced him until he simply did not have the strength to counterattack!
Lan Bao's aura locked onto Wu Zhao, Mei Zhen, and Elder Zhu, these three people the whole time. As long as the three of them dared to move, he would give a thunderbolt-like attack,
In Lan Bao's opinion, Lin Chao, a Third Level Se
a Transformation Realm, dealing with an Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm was definitely gave an instant kill as the conclusion.
Who knew that Lin Chao was actually blocked by a bunch of late-stage Crystal Formation Realm puppets?
"Did Brother Lin Chao stay too long in the Endless World and your combat strength fell until you can't even beat a group of Crystal Formation Realm puppets?" Lan Bao said with slight disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.
Fierce Gale World martial artists all revered their own personal strength and completely did not understand profound things like array formations. Hence, he totally could not see through the actual situation with these sword puppets.
Lin Chao was crying bitterness in his heart. There was simply no way of talking reason with this boorish fellow!
Even a fool could tell that these puppets were extraordinary. Are you poking fun at me?
"Big Brother Lan Bao, these puppets are controlled by Ye Yuan using an abstruse array formation. It's very powerful! I . . . I can't handle it alone!" Lin Chao said while dealing with the sword puppets.
Although he really did not wish to admit it, he truly could not take down these sword puppets within a short period of time!
Even if this was not Ye Yuan's true combat strength, Lin Chao still felt very disgraced to ask Lan Bao for help.
He originally even thought about showing a good performance. Who knew that he lifted up a stone to smash his own feet!
Chapter 334 - Forcefully Withstanding Four Mighty Sea Transformation Realms!
Lan Bao impression of Lin Chao was originally pretty good. After all, to the Fierce Gale World, he performed an outstanding service.
But now, Lan Bao's disdain towards Lin Chao came from the bottom of his heart!
The Fierce Gale World's martial era was extremely prosperous. Martial artists all had extremely strong faith in their own combat strength.
Lin Chao, a Sea Transformation Realm, actually asked him for help to deal with a Spirit Condensation Realm!
The way Lan Bao saw it, Lin Chao had stayed too long in the Endless World and already lost the pride that a Fierce Gale World martial artists should have!
