Chapter 436: Chapter 436 Enlightenment Ends

After Lin Chen had executed his movement technique and roamed around the Enlightenment Stone Forest for a while, he looked back and saw the resentful look in Deng Yu’s eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Chen knew he had probably made an enemy of this guy.

As for Deng Yu, Lin Chen did hold some wariness towards him. After all, the man was strong, with superior talent, and might even be chosen as a Core Disciple of the Formation Sect.

If that child targeted Lin Chen in the future, Lin Chen would indeed face some trouble within the Formation Sect.

Even without considering the far future, there were also some troubles in the current assessment.

In the past, Deng Yu had always been the center of attention in front of everyone. But now, the person who had received all the attention, praise, and admiration had suddenly changed to Lin Chen, and Deng Yu naturally harbored deep hatred towards Lin Chen.

"Brother Lin, it seems your talent is far above mine," Qin Kaifeng came up to Lin Chen and offered his congratulations.

During these ten days, Qin Kaifeng had always been very close to comprehending the true intent, but comprehension is such that, even if it’s just half an inch away, as long as you haven’t grasped it, it amounts to nothing.

So, after witnessing Lin Chen’s enlightenment, he returned to his original spot to continue his efforts.

According to the rules of the Formation Sect’s recruitment competition, everyone had fifteen days to comprehend the Great Dao.

Now that ten days had passed and only five days remained, Qin Kaifeng and Deng Yu became extremely anxious.

If they couldn’t surpass both Lin Chen and Qiu Ya, Deng Yu wouldn’t even be able to respect himself.

Not just Deng Yu, Xia Wanxin, the Heartless Monk, Ouyang Xuan, and others all became very anxious. They wanted to comprehend the true intent within the remaining five days as well.

Time flew, and four more days passed.

Many martial artists became nervous because only the last day remained, and they still hadn’t even touched the threshold of the Great Dao. With only one day left, it seemed they were fated to miss out on the Dao within the stone pillars.

Meanwhile, some martial artists gave up on the Dao of the attribute they practiced and attempted to comprehend the Dao of other attributes, but this approach only diminished their hopes even further.

At this moment, people like Qin Kaifeng had entered a meditative trance, which suggested they had touched the threshold of the Great Dao and were in the midst of comprehension.

Elders like Tang Yuntian were overjoyed, for among this group of disciples, there seemed to be over ten showing signs of comprehension, indicating this could be the most extraordinary batch in many years.

Humming—

Spiritual power fluctuations emanated from Deng Yu’s body, clearly indicating the signs of comprehending the true intent.

Soon after, Xia Wanxin, Qin Kaifeng, the Heartless Monk, and Ouyang Xuan all manifested signs of activity, suggesting they too had comprehended the true intent.

As for Lin Chen, he also entered a meditative trance at this moment. After comprehending the True Meaning of the Wind, Lin Chen continued to seek comprehension of other Great Daos.

Between the flame technique and the thunder technique, Lin Chen chose the Power of Thunder and Lightning.

Flame technique, which means mastering the power of fire, Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division had refined the Blue Lotus Divine Flame and therefore already possessed powerful flame powers.

Even if he master flame technique, the actual increase in strength it provided was still not higher than that of the Blue Lotus Divine Flame, so Lin Chen simply chose thunder technique instead.

Both thunder technique and flame technique are among the two powerful destructive Great Dao paths, which have a suppressive effect on creatures with dark attributes.

The reason Lin Chen chose thunder technique to comprehend was also because of the golden bow and arrow he used, whose arrow feathers were infused with the power of thunder and lightning; thus, if Lin Chen could grasp the thunder technique, it would inevitably enhance the power of the arrow feathers shot from his golden bow.

On the last day, martial artists like Qin Kaifeng finally comprehended the Great Dao True Intent, though each of them understood only one true intent.

Comprehending a single true intent in half a month’s time was already a very remarkable achievement.

Because the martial artists of the Formation Sect who had comprehended the Great Dao True Intent and left their marks actually did not achieve this during the recruitment trial, but after they joined the Formation Sect, spending Contribution Points to enter this place alone and comprehending for a long time to reach that goal.

One must fully grasp the Great Dao to leave marks on the Enlightenment Stone Pillar.

Therefore, the trial that Lin Chen and the others were partaking in was just a taste of sweetness offered by the Formation Sect.

Lin Chen had comprehended two true intents, an event that had never occurred in the history of the Formation Sect’s annual trials.

Lin Chen’s talent could only be described as terrifyingly exceptional.

Everyone present was looking at Lin Chen with disbelief, unable to trust their own eyes; during the second round of aptitude testing, Lin Chen was merely considered superior, among those present like Qin Kaifeng, Xia Wanxin, Heartless Monk, Deng Yu, and Ouyang Xuan, all had stronger aptitude than Lin Chen, yet they only comprehended one true intent each, while Lin Chen had grasped two.

Everyone was wondering if there was an issue with the testing stele during the second round, suggesting Lin Chen’s aptitude was far beyond what had been recorded.

Otherwise, how could Lin Chen’s performance in the Trial Tower and now be stronger than the other Heavenly Prides?

Zhao Zhongtian and Zhao Zhongchuan were standing in a corner at this moment, their gaze towards Lin Chen brimming with complexity.

Given Lin Chen’s demonstrated talent, it seemed he would definitely earn the spot of an Inner Sect Disciple, and after the trial was over, it was likely an Inner Sect Elder would approach him and accept him as a Core Disciple.

Becoming a Core Disciple of the Formation Sect signified an unlimited future, by then he would definitely be beyond what the Zhao Family could afford to provoke.

Zhao Zhongchuan and Zhao Zhongtian felt incredibly stifled at this moment, as they had irreconcilable hatred with Lin Chen; now that Lin Chen had become so powerful, how could they settle their accounts with him?

"Even if he is a Heavenly Pride, what of it, his Cultivation is ultimately only at Melding Earth Realm, as long as we have the opportunity to eliminate him before he has fully grown."

Zhao Zhongtian’s face was filled with hatred, as he and Zhao Zhongchuan’s enmity toward Lin Chen had reached an irreconcilable level.

They had to snuff him in the cradle before Lin Chen could grow up, which was why Zhao Zhongtian had already made contact with some assassins within the Formation Sect, paying for Lin Chen’s life with money.

Although the Formation Sect conducted very strict investigations into the killings of Heavenly Prides, the people they were in contact with had abundant experience, always cleverly evading the Sect’s investigations.

The fifteen days had passed, and many Heavenly Prides had also comprehended the Great Dao; Tang Yuntian was satisfied and led everyone away from the Enlightenment Stone Forest.

After everyone had left the Enlightenment Stone Forest, a formation immediately appeared around its perimeter, transforming into restrictions to protect it.
