Chapter 700: Chapter 700 Ascension to the Heavenly Human Realm

"Are you all okay?"

Lin Chen asked with concern. His physique was robust, and he had set up a defensive barrier during his breakthrough, so the powerful spiritual power fluctuations that occurred during the breakthrough had not harmed him.

However, Xia Wanxin and Qiu Ya had relatively weaker cultivations. Although Xia Wanxin had reached the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm, Qiu Ya was only at the Fourth Layer of the Reverting Void Realm, which worried Lin Chen.

"We’re fine too."

Xia Wanxin and Qiu Ya shook their heads, indicating they were not in serious trouble.

Lin Chen still wasn’t reassured and released his spiritual power to inspect their condition. Once he was sure that they were uninjured, he finally felt at ease.

"Brother Lin Chen, why don’t you move to my place? Your current home is no longer suitable for the three of us."

Xia Wanxin suggested with a hint of a smile in her eyes. She didn’t actually mind living with Lin Chen, but considering Qiu Ya’s presence, she made this proposition.

After a moment of thought, Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

Many eyes within the Formation Sect were now on them. With the rooms in this courtyard destroyed and no protective arrays left, it was indeed no longer suitable for living.

Additionally, the energy released by Lin Chen during his breakthrough had attracted the attention of many martial artists, including Hua Ying, who had just completed her investigation regarding Qing Qizheng’s affairs.

Hua Ying had ascertained that Qing Qizheng’s severe injuries and disability were indeed caused by a woman.

She was aware of Qing Qizheng’s misdeeds herself, and if it weren’t for her considerable cultivation and Qing Wanrong’s protection, she might have found it difficult to escape his clutches.

Now, looking at the golden light soaring into the sky in the distance, Hua Ying was shocked.

That was the peak where Lin Chen resided. The breakthrough of a mere seventh level of the Reverting Void realm martial artist was able to cause such intense energy fluctuations; Lin Chen’s ability to sever Qing Qizheng’s limbs was evident of his strength.

At the same time, Yu Chuan was on top of a True Heritage Peak, gripping his sword at his waist, with his gaze fixed on the golden light in the sky. His emotions were complex.

He had thought that Lin Chen’s real cultivation was definitely not just the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm—that perhaps he had broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm but had hidden his true cultivation.

However, feeling the surge of energy reaching for the sky, he realized that Lin Chen indeed had only the cultivation of the Reverting Void Realm.

Such fighting strength was truly shocking; merely with the power of the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm, he could defeat Qing Qizheng, and with just one move at that.

Lin Chen’s talent might far surpass anyone among the Ten Great True Disciples.

Having such a martial artist as an enemy was undoubtedly a nightmare. If he was not eliminated early, it would be difficult to sleep in peace.

"It’s all because of this guy. He’s always been ruthless, but at that moment, he actually showed mercy. And that waste, Qing Qizheng, actually issued such an order to sever Lin Chen’s limbs and to humiliate that woman in front of him!"

Yu Chuan was filled with rage at this moment.

He had investigated Lin Chen and knew that Lin Chen was never lenient with enemies.

If Lin Chen had killed Qing Qizheng that day, Qing Wanrong and Lu Min would have done everything to avenge their brother and would have put Lin Chen to death.

However, Qing Qizheng’s order was only to sever Lin Chen’s limbs, which allowed Lin Chen to spare Qing Qizheng’s life.

Later, when Lin Chen learned of Qing Qizheng’s identity and wanted to avoid trouble, he withdrew his hand.

Yu Chuan and Lu Min had thought about finishing off Qing Qizheng after the battle, pinning the blame on Lin Chen, but Qing Wanrong was no fool. If her brother really died, she would investigate thoroughly, and Yu Chuan and Lu Min did not want to bear that consequence.

Among the Ten Great True Disciples, Qing Wanrong could be very scary when infuriated, and even Yu Chuan did not want to face such a situation.

...

After his breakthrough, Lin Chen, along with Xia Wanxin and Qiu Ya, moved to Xia Wanxin’s place.

These days, he had been in seclusion, stabilizing his cultivation because this breakthrough from the seventh to the ninth level of the Reverting Void Realm was unexpected.

Of course, this was the result of his battles against the warriors of the Dark Demon Race in the ruins; now, the breakthrough had come naturally.

However, after stabilizing his cultivation for several days, Lin Chen realized that his breakthrough was not yet over.

Then, an energy pillar descended from the sky once again, and visions filled the heavens and earth.

This time, the phenomenon was even more magnificent than before and contained the True Intent of the Dao, a sign of a martial artist’s breakthrough to the Heavenly Human Realm.

Because Lin Chen had moved, the martial artists within the Formation Sect did not suspect that it was his breakthrough.

After all, Lin Chen had just experienced a breakthrough, which was widely known.

In a super sect like the Formation Sect, it wasn’t unusual for someone to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm.

"Why is everyone here?"

Lin Chen emerged from seclusion to find many people gathered at Xia Wanxin’s place, all his good friends from the Formation Sect, such as Qin Kaifeng, Dongfang Yun, Xu Hai, Ouyang Xuan, and others.

"Brother Lin, congratulations."

They all congratulated Lin Chen, celebrating his breakthrough to the Heavenly Human Realm.

Lin Chen’s pace of cultivation astonished them.

To think that Lin Chen had only been at the Second Layer of the Reverting Void Realm before entering the ruins and had broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm in just half a year, a feat that might take them ten years to accomplish.

In response to everyone’s congratulations, Lin Chen expressed his gratitude one by one.

"Brother Lin, in just a short time we haven’t seen you, and you’ve already got both arms around you."

Dongfang Yun teasingly looked at Xia Wanxin and Qiu Ya.

It was evident to everyone that Xia Wanxin liked Lin Chen.

What they didn’t expect was that Lin Chen would have them by his side in pairs.

"Stop talking nonsense here. Today we’re all here to celebrate Brother Lin Chen’s breakthrough in cultivation. If anyone else brings up something else, don’t blame me for losing my temper and issue an order to leave."

Although Xia Wanxin blushed at everyone’s words, dragging Qiu Ya into it made her somewhat displeased.
