Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Backed by the Red Soul Hall

Lin Chen stored his Second Soul Division in the space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron and walked out of the secret chamber with Hua Lianxin, drawing the gazes of those waiting outside toward them.

Lin Chen had decided not to let his Second Soul Division appear because he intended to temporarily hide the news of its advancement to the fifth layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm, thinking that it might offer a chance for an unexpected effect in the future.

Moreover, the Second Soul Division had just refined the Blue Lotus Divine Fire and was not yet able to completely control it, unable to use it freely and precisely control the temperature of the Divine Fire, so further mastering was needed.

At this moment, Xu Lianyu, Zhao Yijing, and others also arrived outside the secret chamber, worried about Lin Chen, they came to see if anything had happened.

After all, the phenomenon in the sky was too eye-catching; considering some of the events currently happening in Divine Sun City, they reasoned that the phenomenon must have been caused by their junior brother.

"Look at you, junior brother! You bring this woman into the secret chamber during your seclusion, what exactly are you doing in there?"

When Xu Lianyu saw Hua Lianxin following Lin Chen out of the chamber, her brain short-circuited, and she immediately asked.

People like Xu Ma’an, whose attention had initially been riveted on Lin Chen, assessing him from head to toe, had not even noticed Hua Lianxin behind him; but upon hearing Xu Lianyu’s remark, they shifted their gazes to Hua Lianxin.

However, being savvy veterans, of course, they didn’t gossip like younger people, just shaking their heads internally and thinking that it was good to be young.

But they did notice the extremely cold aura on Hua Lianxin, which was nothing like the one she had at the conference before. They secretly thought that this woman must have also obtained some fortune; otherwise, Lin Chen wouldn’t have allowed her into the secret chamber. Xu Ma’an and the others didn’t believe that Lin Chen took this woman into the chamber for the reasons Xu Lianyu suggested.

Even if there were, that would be something of a pastime during a break in seclusion...

After everyone finished looking at Hua Lianxin, their eyes fell back on Lin Chen, causing his scalp to tingle uncomfortably as if he were standing there without clothes.

"Why are you all staring at me like this!?"

Lin Chen said helplessly, as anyone would find it peculiar to be scrutinized like this.

"You should see for yourself."

Yang Yuemin looked up at the sky and gestured for Lin Chen to take a look.

Confused, Lin Chen quickly stepped forward to Yang Yuemin’s position, noticing a fragrance but not minding it, he looked up into the sky.

In the sky, the black clouds gradually dispersed, and the originally darkened sky was slowly regaining the light of day. As these phenomena faded, another marvelous scene appeared on the horizon, where clusters of white clouds transformed into the shapes of lotus blossoms, which lingered long in the sky, creating a memorable spectacle.

Lin Chen was startled when he saw this, having not expected the Second Soul Division’s breakthrough in cultivation to provoke such a divine phenomenon, one that could perhaps be compared with the ascension of a Reverting Void Realm powerhouse.

"It seems I can no longer hide it, it is my avatar that has advanced in cultivation to the Heaven-reaching Realm."

Lin Chen said to everyone with a detached tone.

Since the news could not be kept secret any longer, he decided to just tell everyone, as these were all people he trusted.

"What!?"

Xu Ma’an and Yang Yuemin, among others, were shocked upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, their faces showing their astonishment and their mouths hanging open.

Everyone knew that a soul split was an exceptionally rare thing, a kind of mysterious spell. Throughout the entire Great Flame Dynasty, it had never appeared; even those in the Reverting Void Realm like themselves had not mastered it.

Moreover, everyone also knew that a soul split was refined in a similar way to a puppet, simply with some divine sense injected into it.

But even if divine sense was injected, it still couldn’t be like a real person.

The cultivation of a soul split was determined at the time it was successfully refined, and it would remain at that level forever, without any possibility of advancement.

However, Lin Chen’s soul split was actually able to grow, and it far exceeded his original body.

Upon reflection, everyone realized that Lin Chen’s soul split was no different from his real body, completely unlike those mentioned in legends. It didn’t seem like a puppet, but more like a real person.

This kind of method was unprecedented and unheard of by everyone present.

What sort of heaven-defying secret technique could this be for refining a soul split, they finally understood in their hearts that Lin Chen seemed to have obtained more than just that heavenly top-grade technique in the Descension Ruins.

Xu Ma’an’s heart suddenly grew hot, but with previous lessons in mind, he didn’t dare to become greedy again, nor did he dare to covet the treasures on Lin Chen’s body.

If it weren’t for Lin Chen, the Jade Cauldron Sect would have ceased to exist a long time ago. If they harbored any other thoughts towards Lin Chen now, wouldn’t they be biting the hand that feeds them? Xu Ma’an was not capable of doing such a thing.

But if he knew about the existence of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron and other treasures on Lin Chen, it was uncertain whether he could maintain his composure...

"With Lin Chen’s cultivation increased again, it seems we hold the winning ticket in the upcoming battle with the Black Cloud Sect. Even if they attack us again, we will not be afraid," Li Xuanming said, stroking his long beard, feeling extremely delighted. Previously, they had been worried about how to respond if the Black Cloud Sect attacked again.

But now that Lin Chen’s soul split had unexpectedly broken through his cultivation, the problem had been solved.

Indeed, when Lin Chen’s soul split was at the peak of the Melding Earth Realm, with the aid of those puppets and a formation, they were able to withstand the Black Cloud Sect’s onslaught, creating opportunities for a counterattack. Now that his soul split’s cultivation had improved, their combat power would surely be even stronger.

"The Black Cloud Sect is naturally not to be feared, but do you really think that if it was just the Black Cloud Sect, they would have the courage to directly attack Divine Sun City?" Li Xuanming asked after hearing Lin Chen’s words, shaking his head and stepping forward, looking deep into the west.

Xu Ma’an and the others felt a shock in their hearts upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, as if they realized something.

"Nephew, do you mean that behind this attack, there are other forces at play?" Li Xuanming couldn’t help but furrow his brows. In this war, the forces of the Great Flame Dynasty’s sects and families were almost all involved, and those who did not participate were mostly insignificant sects and families.

Everyone clearly understood that the other forces Lin Chen referred to would certainly not be the powers of the Great Flame Dynasty, but came from other places in the Eastern Domain.

With this, matters became more complicated.

Seeing everyone looking perplexed, Lin Chen moved his lips once more and spoke again.

"I wonder if any of you have heard of the Red Soul Hall."
