Chapter 249: Chapter 249: Beyond the Shi Men, All are Magic Treasures

"Is this the Melding Earth Realm!?"

Feeling the turbulent and vast Spiritual Power within his body, Lin Chen’s Cultivation had finally broken through to the Melding Earth Realm.

After his breakthrough in Cultivation, the first thing Lin Chen wanted to do was to test his current strength, and he chose to continue the challenge without any hesitation.

Following a series of whooshing sounds, nine Yuan Soldier Puppets reappeared beneath the great hall.

Seeing this, Lin Chen did not hesitate to strike with his sword. In a flash, the Sword Qi burst forth and cleaved upon the Yuan Soldier Puppets, which all collapsed to the ground under this single stroke.

It must be known that these Yuan Soldier Puppets were all at the Peak Level of the Melding Earth Realm, possessing a Cultivation nearly reaching the Heaven-reaching Realm, yet Lin Chen was able to obliterate them all with one strike.

Witnessing such strength from Lin Chen, everyone around couldn’t help but turn their attention to him, their eyes showing awe.

Lin Chen himself had not expected his strength to have become so formidable. He was overjoyed, and after absorbing the pure Spiritual Power from the Yuan Soldier Puppets, he continued to face the challenges of the subsequent layers.

Every batch of Yuan Soldiers was always nine in number, and as the Spirit of the Cave Mansion had said, the more Yuan Soldiers one killed, not only would one receive more pure Spiritual Power, but there was also a higher chance to score well and earn the recognition of the Cave Mansion’s inheritance.

So Lin Chen wanted to see where his limits truly lay.

As long as the battle with the current batch of Yuan Soldiers didn’t endanger his life, Lin Chen would choose to continue to the next challenge after slaying them.

Before he knew it, Lin Chen had already killed twenty batches of Yuan Soldier Puppets, and the strength of these puppets had reached the Third Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm.

Lin Chen began to feel the pressure, needing to rely on his magic treasures and Talisman Inscriptions to defeat the Yuan Soldier Puppets. At this time, his Spiritual Power reached its peak once again, showing signs of a possible breakthrough to the Second Layer of the Melding Earth Realm.

For ordinary Martial Artists, it was already incredible to break through to the Second Layer, let alone after killing these twenty batches of Yuan Soldier Puppets, they could probably have advanced to the Seventh or Eighth Level of the Melding Earth Realm.

However, just as Lin Chen had slain the twentieth batch of Yuan Soldier Puppets and wanted to continue, the invisible barriers around the great hall suddenly descended and disappeared, and the Yuan Soldier Puppets also sank into the floor of the hall.

For a moment, all the Yuan Soldier Puppets in the great hall vanished, and then the huge stone door at the front of the great hall opened, revealing what was inside.

Behind the huge stone door were rows of small stone houses, and no one knew what was inside, but they weren’t foolish; they knew that these were likely the rewards or the challenges of the second major test for those who passed the first major checkpoint of the Cave Mansion.

People only hesitated for a moment before some rushed into the stone houses, with the pioneers pummeling open the small doors with their fists, only to find that each stone house was filled with magic treasures.

"Magic treasures, they are actually magic treasures!"

Now that there were pioneers, the others too saw that the stone houses contained magic treasures, and immediately they all showed greedy expressions, rushing behind the stone doors to break open the stone houses and collect the treasures inside.

There were many stone houses, yet it could not prevent some Martial Artists from fighting over the treasures, turning the scene into a chaos.

Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing didn’t linger any longer but also rushed in behind the stone doors.

The crowd followed behind Lin Chen, believing in his judgment, and with Lin Chen, they came before a relatively large stone door.

Strangely enough, although Lin Chen and his group were later to enter the stone houses, this stone house wasn’t farthest in the depth, yet no one had opened it.

"How strange, did they not see this stone house, leaving it here unopened?"

Xu Lianyu muttered in puzzlement.

But Lin Chen just smiled lightly and shook his head.

"Senior sister, you find it strange, don’t you? Why don’t you try to open it? See what’s inside."

Lin Chen said with a smile to Xu Lianyu.

Xu Lianyu, upon hearing this, didn’t think too much and slammed her fist directly at the stone door.

Hum——

However, when Xu Lianyu’s fist hit the stone door, contrary to her expectations, the stone door didn’t open. Instead, it trembled, and a powerful force of backlash erupted from the door, sending Xu Lianyu flying backward.

"What’s going on?"

Xu Lianyu was puzzled, rubbing her small fist, about to throw another punch at the stone door.

"Alright, little sister, little junior brother is just playing with you. There are Formations and restrictions on this stone door; it’s not something that can be so easily broken open."

Zhao Yijing immediately stopped Xu Lianyu, secretly thinking how cute the girl was to have not seen through Lin Chen’s teasing.

However, Zhao Yijing was already secretly looking forward to Lin Chen’s upcoming plight, knowing that he dared to tease Xu Lianyu, who was known as the "Little Witch" of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

"You little Lin, daring to play tricks on your senior sister."

After hearing Zhao Yijing’s words, Xu Lianyu immediately teleported in front of Lin Chen and reached out to grab his ear, pulling it high.

"Mercy, senior sister, I was wrong."

Lin Chen, feeling the pain in his ear, immediately sought mercy, thinking that in hindsight, he should not have teased his senior sister.

"Enough, there are too many onlookers right now, we should focus on finding treasures."

Zhao Yijing, watching the junior brother and sister acting like children, immediately spoke.

Hearing this, Xu Lianyu finally let go of Lin Chen’s ear.

Lin Chen gave a wry smile, thinking to himself that he’d better not tease his senior sister anymore, and proceeded to point a finger at the stone door. A few beams of Spiritual Light began to form a certain pattern on the door. Shortly after, the stone door began to vibrate and opened right before everyone’s eyes.

"It’s open, it’s open. You little junior brother, you had a way all along and let me punch it."

Xu Lianyu stared at Lin Chen, scolding him unhappily.

At that moment, as the stone door opened, the interior of the stone house was revealed to everyone. It was filled with numerous shelves, on which were placed a variety of magic treasures.

Helmets, armor, leg guards, arm guards, spears, swords, and more, no fewer than a hundred pieces, and all were at least Profound Middle Grade level Magic Artifacts.
