Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Arrival

Lin Chen felt no pity at all for those water bandits who took the initiative to kill him.

Lin Chen also achieved many victories, as killing these water bandits was considered meritorious, given that they were wanted criminals by the Cloud Dragon Kingdom.

It’s important to note that the top ten in this competition would have the opportunity to be recommended to Yunlong Heavenly Palace. Lin Chen was somewhat curious about this highest academy of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom.

In a place like Central State, to be recognized as the highest academy of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom, it must have its exceptional qualities.

After reaching the Seventh Water Region, Lin Chen and his group planned to part ways with Shi Lijian and the others.

Shi Lijian and his group would head to the Eleventh Water Region, the main city of Xindi Waters, which wouldn’t take long and posed little danger.

Shi Lijian invited Lin Chen to join him in visiting the City Lord of the main city, but Lin Chen decisively refused.

In Lin Chen’s view, those people in the main city of Xindi Water City were nothing but selfish individuals.

They cared little about the lives and deaths of others, summoning others without regard for their circumstances when needed; Lin Chen held no fondness for them.

Afterward, the two parties split up, each heading to their respective destinations.

...

At this moment, in a peculiar location within the Seventh Water Region.

The water surface shimmered, with whirlpools surging from the depths to the surface.

At the center of these whirlpools, a massive space passage had formed, standing tall above the water.

This space passage was accompanied by a powerful pillar of light and aura that shot skyward.

Before them was a teleportation passage to an ancient ruin.

Heng Sanjin and his companions had stumbled upon a map, after a long search and confirmation, they finally pinpointed this location.

Thus, they had occupied Xindi Water City early on, intending to discover the exact location.

Yet now, even though the location is found, the commotion created is so significant that attempting to keep this teleportation passage to the ancient ruin a secret seems impossible.

The earlier huge disturbance, the pillar of light, would surely attract people from the Four Seas here.

Initially, they hoped to cover up their search for the ruins under the pretense of attacking Xindi Water City.

But who could have imagined that once the ruins were found and opened, it would cause such a commotion?

First of all, the City Lord of Xindi Water City, Gu Yong’an, had probably already received the news, despite hiding within the main city, he constantly dispatched scouts to keep an eye on them.

Even though they had killed many scouts, the opposition hadn’t halted, persistently throwing lives at the problem.

Previously, Heng Sanjin had thought of outrightly attacking the main city of Xindi Water City.

However, they weren’t successful, the main city’s defenses far surpassed those of other cities.

"It seems we need to hurry; currently, three factions are making their way here,"

Heng Sanjin furrowed his brow and spoke calmly.

He had just released his Divine Soul perception and discovered people rapidly approaching.

Heng Sanjin felt truly unfortunate.

If it were only Xindi Waters, he could handle it.

However, not far from Xindi Waters is Tian Que City, where the Four Great Families had chosen Xindi Water City as the trial site for their joint competition, sending Heavenly Pride disciples forth to eliminate these water bandits.

Though Heng Sanjin didn’t see those young Heavenly Prides as a threat, he was deeply apprehensive about the experts from the Four Great Families.

...

At this moment, four Creation Realm experts from the Four Great Families had sensed the opening of the ancient ruins’ teleportation passage.

Faced with such an opportunity, they were both thrilled and somewhat melancholic.

After all, the joint competition of the Four Great Families had yet to conclude, and they couldn’t enter Xindi Water City at this time.

Rules were rules, and these were the rules set by the Four Great Families. Although they were Creation Realm experts, they were the weakest among the Creation Realm experts in the Four Great Families, which is why they were assigned to perform this hard labor.

The four didn’t dare act recklessly, even if they agreed not to reveal their entry, it wouldn’t suffice.

They couldn’t guarantee their actions would remain undiscovered, and if found out, they would face the joint punishment of the Four Great Families.

After all, the Four Great Families had stood in Tian Que City for years, relying on adhering to rules.

It’s important to know, the disciples within Xindi Waters who crushed the distress tokens weren’t asking the four experts to enter and save them, but for the four experts to use their Great Dao of space powers, leveraging the crushed jade slip locations, to transport them out.

These jade slips already contained some formation power, allowing disciples who crushed them to be directly transported back to Mu Family’s flying boat.

In reality, these jade slips were somewhat like Lin Chen’s Qiankun Escape Talisman, though their teleportation ability didn’t match the Qiankun Escape Talisman, only enabling fixed-point transfer.

At this moment, some disciples who were transported back to the flying boat due to crushing their jade slips looked reluctant and longing, not expecting Xindi Waters to suddenly have a pillar of light, indicating a ruin or secret realm had opened.

This opportunity was even better than the trial, how they longed to explore it.

However, they had already been eliminated, currently unable to enter Xindi Water City.

Of the eighty-five disciples from the Four Great Families, only a few actually crushed jade slips to teleport out.

After all, in a real life-or-death situation, having the opportunity to crush the jade slips isn’t common.

...

At this moment, Lin Chen, accompanied by Su Yun and others, quickly reached the site of the ancient ruins.

Upon arrival, Lin Chen and Su Yun noticed that two groups had already gotten there before them.

These two groups were from the Yang Family and Mu Family.

Currently, twenty-five disciples from the Yang Family were reduced to eighteen, while the twenty disciples from the Mu Family were reduced to thirteen.

Clearly, both parties suffered losses within Xindi Water City, and perhaps some had crushed jade slips and were transported out.

At this moment, both parties had united and were in a standoff with the water bandits.

Heng Sanjin looked at Lin Chen and the third group to arrive, furrowing his brow, his expression extremely unpleasant.

At this moment, he couldn’t act against Yang Minghui and Mu Qinghe; despite the water bandits’ advantage in numbers and cultivation, Heng Sanjin didn’t dare easily provoke them.

Because he sensed that, aside from Lin Chen and his group arriving, there were several other factions also headed their way.
