Chapter 423: Chapter 423: The Self-Important Deng Yu

Hiss——

Hiss——

Sword Light danced, with Lin Chen’s figure continuously weaving through the space.

The dazzling Sword Light and Lin Chen’s afterimages completely stunned everyone.

Every time Lin Chen swung his sword, several Spiritual Puppets would be taken down.

Under Lin Chen’s sword, these Spiritual Puppets were as if they were merely slicing vegetables.

"This must be some kind of joke, this guy’s combat power... is freakishly abnormal!"

"Am I hallucinating, or is he actually chasing down those Spiritual Puppets with his sword?"

"Ten, twenty, fifty..."

Watching Lin Chen wield the Flowing Light Sword, Du Feiyu and the others saw him shatter dozens of Puppets in no time, and he looked set to break through to a hundred.

Witnessing all this, everyone’s minds were in complete disarray, even harboring the illusion that there might be something wrong with these Spiritual Puppets, thinking they could take them on themselves.

But as much as they thought this, they were very clear on the strength of these Spiritual Puppets; they didn’t dare to rashly charge out and try to kill them.

Although shattering a Spiritual Puppet yielded a very tempting amount of energy, they needed to be alive to enjoy it.

"Senior brother, we should make our move too."

Seeing Lin Chen destroy nearly a hundred Spiritual Puppets in a short time with simple swings of his sword, Du Feiyu grew restless.

He couldn’t stand idly by any longer; if they didn’t take action, Lin Chen might take out all the Spiritual Puppets by himself.

At this moment, they finally understood why the other members of Lin Chen’s team had such ample Spiritual Power and were unharmed.

It seemed that the other members didn’t even need to lift a finger in the previous three levels, as the Spiritual Puppets were mere fodder for Lin Chen.

"Junior sister, take good care of your senior sister."

The middle-aged man said, immediately drew his weapon, and together with Du Feiyu, leapt up and charged at the Spiritual Puppets.

Because Lin Chen’s Sword Qi was so fierce, no Puppet could withstand a single strike from his sword, making Lin Chen instantly attract all the enmity of the Puppets.

After Du Feiyu and the middle-aged man joined in, it was indeed easier to kill the Spiritual Puppets than it had been on the third level.

However, even so, it took a great deal of effort for the two of them to kill one Spiritual Puppet.

While they took down one, Lin Chen could crush twenty or thirty.

This gap made them almost go crazy.

Du Feiyu was extremely shocked; in just ten days, Lin Chen’s strength had increased again, and it was this kind of heaven-defying combat power.

If they were to fight again, Du Feiyu would surely be no match for Lin Chen and would quickly be defeated.

However, Du Feiyu had no idea that Lin Chen’s abnormal combat strength was due to the Primordial Transformation Art having a strong suppressive effect on these Spiritual Puppets.

But if Lin Chen were to fight Du Feiyu again, he would indeed be able to defeat him quickly.

For Lin Chen had truly improved a lot compared to his strength ten days ago.

"This guy is too terrifying."

The distant onlookers watched as Puppet after Puppet quickly shattered under Lin Chen’s sword, their hearts filled with utmost shock.

Half an hour later, Lin Chen sheathed his Flowing Light Sword as the Spiritual Spring within him expanded another two layers.

At this rate, just two more floors up the tower, and he would be able to expand his internal Spiritual Power to the Reverting Void Realm level. Moreover, after several rounds of battle, Lin Chen’s Divine Body had stabilized, fulfilling the requirements to step into the Reverting Void Realm.

"Congratulations, Brother Lin Chen, on your advanced cultivation."

The middle-aged man and Du Feiyu, seeing that Lin Chen had absorbed over two hundred Spiritual Puppets in one go, were incredibly shocked. They immediately approached Lin Chen to offer their congratulations.

"You two didn’t do so bad yourselves."

Lin Chen dismissed their flattery with a wave of his hand and a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, Du Feiyu and the middle-aged man felt a burning shame on their faces. Their gains compared to Lin Chen’s were nothing.

However, if it hadn’t been for Lin Chen’s heaven-defying combat power drawing all the enmity of the Spiritual Puppets, they indeed wouldn’t have been able to kill so many of them.

So, even though they envied Lin Chen, they had to acknowledge that he truly did help them.

Soon, the Trial Tower made another sound, and everyone was teleported to the fifth floor.

Lin Chen and the others encountered more than ten Martial Artists, and this time, they met Deng Yu.

This man had exceptional talent and had received full marks in evaluation; his Cultivation had reached the Half-Step Return to Void Realm, with strength far surpassing Du Feiyu.

Therefore, upon reaching the fifth floor, he looked down on Lin Chen and the others with nothing but contempt.

The Martial Artists following him seemed to be old acquaintances, so their combined strength when working together was not insignificant.

Upon seeing Du Feiyu and Lin Chen together and noting that the five people on Du Feiyu’s team were weak from exhausted Spiritual Power and even injured, he assumed Lin Chen and his group had fought desperately to barely make it to this floor.

"Don’t get in the way later. If you’re scared of dying, just stay far back so you don’t obstruct me from exerting my full strength to annihilate the Spiritual Puppets," Deng Yu said to Lin Chen and the others, his voice cold and mocking.

Lin Chen, hearing this, did not respond. After all, everything had to be spoken for by strength. He knew Deng Yu was strong, but to snatch Spiritual Puppets from him would at most mean getting a few scraps of meat, not even enough to count as drinking soup.

"You..."

Qiu Ya, hearing someone looking down on herself and others was one thing, but to see them looking down on Lin Chen got her instantly irritated.

Somehow, Lin Chen’s invisible protection of Qiu Ya had planted an emotional seed in her heart, making her dissatisfied with anyone who showed Lin Chen ill will.

This action by Qiu Ya caught Lin Chen’s attention, and he thought to himself that this girl actually knew how to stand up for him.

Humming—

At that moment, a buzzing sound echoed all around. With the flashing of Spiritual Light, numerous Spiritual Puppets materialized, with a full five hundred walking out from the walls of the surrounding area.

And among these five hundred Spiritual Puppets, there were even ten whose Cultivation was at the Half-Step Return to Void Realm level.

"With so many, and some at the Half-Step Return to Void Realm level, after this test, you take Qiu Ya away through the teleportation window," Lin Chen told the man with the scar and the others.

"Reaching the fifth floor is a score good enough to give you a chance to enter the Formation Sect Outer Sect. If we reach the sixth floor, I’m afraid it’ll be hard to ensure your safety."

Lin Chen said to the man with the scar and the others, looking at them.

Although he had no particular friendship with these people, they had followed Lin Chen’s lead obediently through these floors, so naturally, he didn’t want to let them down. He didn’t want them to risk their lives if they made it to the sixth floor.

"Yes, Senior Brother."

"Being able to reach the fifth floor, we’re already very satisfied."
