Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Entering the Ruins Again

Lin Chen detected a slight loosening in the formation that even a Sixth-Grade Array Master might not have been aware of.

However, having grasped the source of the formations within the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen was naturally able to easily discern it.

He planned to quietly infiltrate the ruins, keenly avoiding the leakage of information that could allow Martial Artists of the Heavenly Human Realm to also enter.

Moreover, Lin Chen currently lacked sufficient strength to fully protect the resources he would obtain from the ruins.

Just like this time, he was forcibly taken to relinquish tens of thousands of resources by the old fellows of the Formation Sect.

Therefore, Lin Chen had long refined a Divine Soul Puppet before this venture, to temporarily stand in for him within the Formation Sect, guarding this place.

With Lin Chen’s current strength, refining ten Divine Soul Puppets and manipulating them with Spiritual Sense posed no problem.

But to date, Lin Chen had only refined three. The first, with low cultivation, had been discovered and destroyed by the real Li Chu.

Now, including the one before him, Lin Chen only had two, so he was still capable of refining and controlling eight more.

The Divine Soul Puppet was different from ordinary human-shaped puppets. They possessed a certain self-awareness and were connected to Lin Chen’s Spiritual Sense, which meant they could receive his thoughts at any time and act according to his will.

Lin Chen had to transmit his intentions to this Divine Soul Puppet before leaving for the ruins, because once he entered the ruins, he would lose the connection with this Divine Soul Puppet on the Mysterious Heaven Continent.

As of today, Lin Chen had already inquired that early tomorrow morning, the Spirit Sword Sect would send a large army into the ruins.

Prior to this, major factions had actually already deployed armies into the ruins to scout.

Learning from the last experience, this time, the various factions sent their people in batches into the ruins to scout first.

However, none of the Martial Artists sent by the various factions, even those above the Eighth Layer of the Reverting Void Realm, have returned.

The various factions began to feel unease. Could something have happened within the ruins that exacerbated the danger?

Therefore, the factions no longer restrained each other. Regardless of any desire to prevent others from splitting up the resources, they freely sent forces without others’ interference.

Lin Chen, using a Talisman Inscription that concealed his form, managed to stealthily blend into the Spirit Sword Sect’s army, disguising himself as an utterly average, ordinary soldier.

Meanwhile, the Divine Soul Puppet Lin Chen had refined returned to the Formation Sect’s camp to stand guard.

This Divine Soul Puppet, apart from having a Divine Soul and physical body that were different from Lin Chen’s, was completely identical in appearance, speech, and demeanor.

When Lin Chen’s puppet arrived, Xia Wanxin and Yu Weilian were still vying for his attention. However, no matter how they tempted him this time, Lin Chen’s puppet remained unmoved.

Yu Weilian was puzzled, wondering if Lin Chen had grown so powerful that he was no longer susceptible to her Bewitching Technique.

Little did Yu Weilian know that Lin Chen’s puppet was not flesh and blood, and therefore lacked emotions. Following Lin Chen’s thoughts, the puppet directly ousted the two women from the tent, announcing a period of Seclusion for cultivation.

Yu Weilian felt a sudden sense of loss, while Xia Wanxin, although somewhat disappointed, was secretly pleased to see that Lin Chen showed no interest in Yu Weilian’s seduction.

...

As dawn broke, Lin Chen’s true self, along with the Spirit Sword Sect’s army, began to pass through the teleportation channel of the Luoyun Mountain Range and enter the ruins.

When passing through the Teleportation Array, Lin Chen executed a spell to alter his own aura. Seizing a loophole in the formation, he successfully infiltrated the ruins.

His eyes met a world of gloom and darkness, surrounded by an ominous and silent death qi.

The moment Lin Chen stepped into the ruins, his heart began to race.

Before him lay countless skeletal remains. Assembling was an enormous army of the Dark Demon Race, with cultivation not particularly high, but enveloped in a chilling death qi, far more numerous than he imagined.

Lin Chen finally understood why the armies sent by the major factions had not returned alive.

The instant they entered, they were met by the army of the Dark Demon Race in front of them.

Under the crushing force of the enemy’s death qi, Martial Artists from both the Human Race and the Demon Race were no match, perishing here and devoured by the Dark Demon tribespeople, turning into mere bones.

Lin Chen’s immediate thought was to return to the Mysterious Heaven Continent to warn everyone, to prevent further senseless deaths.

However, just as he was about to make a move, a powerful presence instantly locked onto the army he was with.

A single wave of this aura turned hundreds of Spirit Sword Sect soldiers nearby into skeletons.

Lin Chen’s body was immobilized under the pressure of this aura.

This pressure was even stronger than that of Demon General Hui Chu, whom Lin Chen had encountered before.

But Lin Chen was now a different person from back then. With a thought, he released the cultivation he had been suppressing, and with a Talisman in his hand, his figure vanished in an instant.

"Indeed, it’s this vermin! The one able to ignore the death qi of our tribe, a truly damned fellow," Xiu Yi mused.

Xiu Yi had not noticed Lin Chen when he entered the ruins. But Lin Chen’s free movement under the Dark Demon Race’s death qi, without turning into a skeleton, caught Xiu Yi’s attention.

He remembered the description from the Dark Demon tribespeople about the person who slew Hui Chu and immediately thought that Lin Chen might well be that person.

Xiu Yi suspected Lin Chen might be relying on some magic treasure, but he didn’t believe Lin Chen could use it indefinitely.

Therefore, he exerted his power, intending to capture Lin Chen for interrogation. However, he hadn’t expected Lin Chen to resist his formidable pressure and even make his escape.

Demon General Xiu Yi, enraged, unleashed his Divine Soul, spreading his Divine Sense nearly ten thousand miles in an attempt to find Lin Chen.

Yet, he could not detect any trace of Lin
