Chapter 459: Chapter 459 Watching Tigers Fight from the Mountain

Following Lin Chen’s addition of new Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills to the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion of Jade Cauldron Sect, even the elders of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion were shocked in their hearts.

The Martial Skill Techniques that Lin Chen brought this time were all of Earth Grade quality.

In the past, the highest-grade Martial Skill Techniques owned by the Jade Cauldron Sect were only at this level, and there were only a few of them.

Because of this, the disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect who got the news practically regarded Lin Chen as a godlike figure, flocking to exchange for these techniques.

...

Within the secret trial of Formation Sect.

A night had quietly passed, and Lin Chen and Xia Wanxin awoke.

Lin Chen released his Divine Sense to probe the group of martial artists ten miles away and discovered that two groups were engaged in battle there.

"Taking advantage while others fight has been off my agenda for quite some time."

A slight smile appeared on the corners of Lin Chen’s mouth.

Then Lin Chen led Xia Wanxin and the Purple-robed Maiden toward the area ten miles away with a deliberate slowdown to give the battling martial artists ample time to wear each other out.

Xia Wanxin, who did not quite understand Lin Chen’s actions, nevertheless didn’t say much. During the time they had spent together, she had become accustomed to having Lin Chen take the lead in making decisions.

"Gentlemen, hand over the treasures you possess."

"We are not here to give you a hard time. Simply hand over the command tokens and treasures you possess, and we shall grant you the chance to crush your Jade Slips. Otherwise, resign yourselves to death," said one of the martial artists, and it was none other than Ouyang Xuan’s group.

Seeing that the opposing group of martial artists outnumbered his own by twice as many, Ouyang Xuan let out a cold laugh.

His group consisted of Heavenly Prides with extraordinary powers. Although the martial artists coming to plunder them were twice their number, Ouyang Xuan did not believe they would be defeated.

"Gentlemen, since you are unwilling to part with your treasures, then do not blame us for being impolite," said the leading black-haired man from the larger group, with a smiling expression.

Suddenly, they drew their weapons, and powerful auras erupted from their bodies.

Chang Bai’s power had only reached the Ninth Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm, but within this month in the secret realm, he had led his group to plunder numerous treasures and distributed them among his allies, greatly enhancing their strength.

As for his own Cultivation, it had broken through to the Half-Step Reverting Void Realm just a few days earlier.

While Chang Bai was certainly aware of Heavenly Pride Ouyang, regardless of this, he was confident about taking him down.

His group consisted of martial artists who were merciless and ruthless.

"Attack!"

Upon seeing that Ouyang Xuan’s group had no intention of surrendering their treasures, Chang Bai immediately ordered his followers to move against Ouyang Xuan’s group.

Spiritual Light flickered, and the light from blades and swords burst forth in the valley.

Soon enough, Ouyang Xuan’s group was defeated.

Witnessing the combat strength of Chang Bai and his group, Ouyang Xuan couldn’t help but feel aghast, realizing where they had fallen short.

Ouyang’s team, although composed of talented geniuses, was a temporary alliance lacking true fighting spirit and willingness to seize command tokens from others. Thus, when Lin Chen sensed their presence the night before and they had likewise detected Lin Chen, they chose not to pursue.

The team led by Chang Bai, however, was different; these individuals thirsted for blood and were committed to fighting to the death.

They struck with lethal moves, fighting as if they had nothing to lose. As a result, Ouyang Xuan’s team was simply no match for them.

"Stop, we are willing to surrender the command tokens, just spare us," said Ouyang Xuan, resigning to defeat.

If the battle continued, they would surely die. It made more sense to hand over their treasures.

After all, for this trial, there was no need to gamble with their lives.

Furthermore, with the points Ouyang had obtained earlier, even if they were to be transported out of the secret trial now, it was not a given that they would be eliminated.

"Brother Xuan, do we truly have to concede? These fellows clearly aren’t as strong as us. They’re just more ruthless and only outnumber us a bit. With their way of fighting, as long as we hold out, we might still overcome them," said a martial artist standing beside Ouyang Xuan unwillingly.

Hearing this, Ouyang Xuan shook his head. Even though he did not have strong feelings for the others after their time together, he couldn’t bear to watch them die before him.

What the man said was true, but that only applied to the man himself and Ouyang Xuan. The other martial artists on their team simply wouldn’t be able to hold out.
