Chapter 711: Chapter 711: Volunteering to Go Ahead

Seeing Qin Shangfeng stand up, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It was because of his trust in Qin Kaifeng that Lin Chen dared to confront Ouyang Jin so boldly.

After all, although Lin Chen had the Dragon Fang Dagger and the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron as trump cards, this was after all Golden Light Peak of the Formation Sect, inhabited by the ancestral masters and other old monsters of the sect.

If Lin Chen really got into a situation where he had to take action against Ouyang Jin, and he managed to kill Ouyang Jin, it would surely provoke the ancestral masters of the Formation Sect to intervene. At that point, whether the Dragon Fang Dagger could protect Lin Chen from the Formation Sect was an unknown.

After all, the power restored by the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron and the Dragon Fang Dagger was too little, and whether it could handle an ancestral master of the Formation Sect’s level of martial artists, and how many of them, was also unknown.

In his heart, Lin Chen did not truly wish to completely fall out with the Formation Sect since behind him was not only himself but also the existence of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

With troubled times approaching, if Lin Chen wanted to elevate the Jade Cauldron Sect, even to the level of the Formation Sect, then he must make use of the Formation Sect as a stepping stone.

"Deputy Sect Master, your proposition just now was indeed a bit too much. As the top figures of the Formation Sect, we should seek benefits for our disciples and help them grow, not squeeze the resources out of them,"

spoke the Great Elder Xu Mingzhen, who had a good relationship with the Qin Family, also stepping out to support Lin Chen.

"Indeed, if we, like the Deputy Sect Master, do such things, the Formation Sect may have difficulty commanding respect in the future."

At this moment, Pavilion Master of the Talisman Pavilion, Liang Zixuan, did not remain neutral, and directly stood up to support Lin Chen as well.

Lin Chen’s talent for formations was something he had only seen once in his life; in the future, Lin Chen’s achievements in formations were bound to surpass his own, so naturally, he stood up.

He wasn’t doing so to curry favor with Lin Chen, but rather out of a sense of fairness.

It should be noted that, within the Formation Sect, those who had the privilege of being in this great hall, whether they were Pavilion Masters, Hall Masters, or Law Enforcement Elders, all spoke with their strength, with powerful cultivation and combat strength earning the right to enter this hall.

For instance, individuals like Mu Qianqiu, a half-step into the Nirvana Realm, also had the right to come here, but she was not good at socializing and even less willing to attend such meetings.

At this moment, Ouyang Jin’s expression was extremely ugly.

His gaze swept over Qin Shangfeng, Liang Zixuan, and Xu Mingzhen, and he silently took note of these old creatures.

These individuals were openly defying him, of course due to the influence of the Qin Family.

Shi Wanshan did not speak much at this moment and maintained neutrality.

His position as the Sect Leader was essentially nominal; in other places within the Formation Sect, he could perhaps show off some authority, but in this great hall, his identity did not carry much weight.

Because among the elders, Pavilion Masters, Hall Masters, and even the Ten Great True Disciples present, all had their own stances, and very few stood with him.

The majority were from the forces of the Ouyang Family and the Qin Family.

This was also because he had focused solely on cultivation in his early years and neglected to socialize, failing to form his own power base.

However, Shi Wanshan wasn’t particularly concerned about this; he didn’t enjoy debating such matters and was focused solely on cultivation, seeking higher realms.

Had it not been for the news of the Sixth-Grade Spirit Medicine on Lin Chen’s person, he wouldn’t have attended today’s meeting.

"Enough, if you all disagree with that outcome, then let’s hear your own views," he conceded.

Ouyang Jin looked at the defiant Qin Shangfeng, his heart swelling with rage.

He had thought that today’s meeting would go according to his plan, but he didn’t expect the situation to become so complex.

For years, the Qin Family had been suppressed by their Ouyang Family, since the Qin Family’s ancestor didn’t have much time left.

However, today, this guy Qin Shangfeng was suddenly so unwavering.

The Great Elder Xu Mingzhen, who usually stirred the pot, was unexpectedly standing on Qin Shangfeng’s side.

Even Liang Zixuan from the Talisman Pavilion followed suit. As for Liang Zixuan, Ouyang Jin wasn’t surprised by any private motives; the old man had even been praised by his own master. He was someone wholly focused on work, dedicated to the Sect’s future and prosperity.

It seemed that Lin Chen’s talent in talisman inscription had earned his recognition.

But no matter what, currently these three major forces stood with Lin Chen, and if Ouyang Jin maintained his attitude, things probably wouldn’t end well, so he had to step back a bit.

Regarding Qin Shangfeng, it wasn’t hard for Ouyang Jin to guess that the opponent wanted to accomplish something before the old ancestor’s lifespan ran out to prevent the Qin Family from falling after the ancestor’s demise.

Ouyang Jin silently decided in his heart that for the time being, it was best not to have too many direct conflicts with Qin Shangfeng.

After all, the Qin Family’s ancestor was a dying man. If they were pushed too hard, who knew what craziness the old guy might resort to.

In the end, everyone agreed to let Lin Chen hand over a sixth-grade spiritual medicine that was ten thousand years old, as well as ten thousand fifth-grade spiritual medicines.

But at the same time, Lin Chen was granted the status of holding a first-class meritorious service order.

Upon this, Lin Chen gave a forced smile and accepted. He knew that even with the backing of the Qin Family, if he wanted to not bleed a little, those old things in the current Elders Council hall would never agree.

After all, making contributions to the Sect ultimately meant that the spiritual medicines Lin Chen provided had to be enough for these elders present to share.

Lin Chen silently noted this in his heart, the debt these people were taking from him today; one day, he would surely repay them ten-fold.

Afterward, what everyone discussed was the alien evil demons that had passed through the transmission channel into the ruins.

They had searched the ancient books and learned that those were the Dark Demon Race that had once appeared above the Eastern Domain of the Mysterious Heaven Continent, a very terrifying existence.

Although that transmission channel could only let martial artists below the Heavenly Human Realm pass through, who knew if there would be any restrictions for the Dark Demon Race.

And even the Dark Demon Race with cultivation below the Heavenly Human Realm possessed a tremendously formidable and terrifying power.

Thus, after deliberation, it was decided that strong practitioners would guard the transmission passage, ready to join forces and kill any alien evil demons that came through from the other side.

After the discussion, it was determined that Mu Qianqiu would lead the Formation Sect’s War Department’s troops to guard the transmission entrance in the Luoyun Mountain Range.

At the same time, some strong experts from the Formation Sect would be dispatched to accompany them.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen immediately requested to join the campaign.

This puzzled everyone, as accompanying the troops was highly dangerous; they wondered why Lin Chen would proactively seek to face such peril.
