Chapter 507: Chapter 52: Lin Chen: Pulling the Rug Out from Under

Canglan Pearl, each one is the size of an apricot.

Lin Chen casually picked one up and tossed it into his mouth.

It melted the instant it entered.

In a moment, a fragrant taste blossomed on his tongue.

One, two...

Up until he ate over a thousand, Lin Chen finally stopped.

His stomach didn’t swell, but his entire being felt a sense of fullness, a fullness coming from his divine soul.

Inner observation of the dantian, the golden figure in Lin Chen’s dantian was slightly taller than before.

Seeing this change, Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, and he called up the panel in the next moment.

[Host: Lin Chen]

[Realm: Great Success of Refining the Viscera Realm]

[Nine Revolutions of the Refining of the Viscera: 7/9]

[Spirit Tier: Second Tier]

...

His Spirit Tier had directly advanced from the First Tier to the Second Tier.

"Other martial artists’ Martial Path Will is a spirit soldier, divided into nine tiers, and my Martial Path Will is the golden figure within my dantian, which has grown."

With the evolution to the Second Tier, Lin Chen’s biggest feeling was that his perception was much stronger than before.

He could clearly detect every little breeze and movement within ten zhang.

As for strength...

Lin Chen couldn’t estimate it, but he was sure it had definitely increased as well.

This is the power of the Canglan Pearl, directly affecting the Martial Path Will.

...

At this moment, in the stone chamber, there was a mountain pile of Canglan Pearls, only a small part had been reduced, and Lin Chen conservatively estimated there should be tens of thousands of Canglan Pearls here.

"It’s a pity, if I had a treasure like a storage bag, I could have packed all these Canglan Pearls away."

With his face showing resolve, Lin Chen took off his outer clothing, wrapped up dozens of Canglan Pearls, and tied it to his back.

Looking at the many remaining Canglan Pearls, Lin Chen’s eyes showed determination, and in the next moment, he struck out with a palm, the palm wind roaring as it fell on the mountain of Canglan Pearls, causing many of them to shatter instantly.

The entire stone chamber was immediately filled with fragrance.

Destroying these Canglan Pearls was Lin Chen’s reluctant move.

This place is the territory of the Canglan Sea Demons, he couldn’t take away these Canglan Pearls, and the energy of the Canglan Pearls could not only be absorbed by human martial artists but also by the demon race.

As for leaving these Canglan Pearls behind to take them later, it was impossible; he had eaten over a thousand Canglan Pearls already, and if the sea demons entered the stone chamber, they would surely notice something was wrong and would undoubtedly increase their guard.

After striking several palms, all the Canglan Pearls turned to dust, and Lin Chen decisively left the stone chamber, continuing to traverse the passage.

The journey was unimpeded, without encountering any sea demons, but he did enter several stone chambers.

There were treasures in these stone chambers, but unfortunately, many Lin Chen didn’t recognize; however, he adhered to a principle: if it could be taken, he would take it; if not, he would destroy it.

After destroying all twelve stone chambers, Lin Chen made it to the passage exit.

Swoosh!

Two golden arrows shot out, and the two crabs guarding the cave entrance, each about three zhang wide, were directly pierced through their shells by the arrows.

Against the Canglan Sea Race, Lin Chen showed no mercy.

Between alien races, there is no mercy.

After exiting the passage, Lin Chen had yet to move, but from not far away came the sound of something breaking through the air.

"Who dares trespass into the land of the Canglan Sea Race!"

Discovered?

Lin Chen’s pupils contracted sharply; he didn’t know how the Canglan Sea Race discovered him, and looking at the few figures in the distance, without any hesitation, he bent his bow and nocked an arrow...

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Golden arrows shot out, penetrating three of the five figures approaching, while the other two, seeing this scene, were shocked and turned to flee without hesitation.

Unfortunately, their speed was no match for Lin Chen’s arrows.

Five arrows in a row took down five sea demons, and Lin Chen experienced his increased strength.

Back at the Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy, firing three arrows at the three Yu Beichen brothers seemed easy, but after launching three arrows, he felt fatigue; this time, after firing five arrows in succession, he was not affected at all.

"These sea demons turning to flee shows that those powerful sea demons have indeed all gone to the Martial Arts Academy."

Lin Chen made a judgment; if the Canglan Sea Race had strong warriors left, those sea demons couldn’t possibly run at the sight of him; they could completely stall him, waiting for stronger clan members to come and aid.

"In that case, let’s collect some interest from the Canglan Sea Race side first."

After entering the Canglan Martial Arts Academy, Lin Chen learned from the local records in the academy’s Library Pavilion that before the academy was established, the Canglan Sea Demons often landed to abduct civilians.

Looking at the ground with the bodies of the five sea demons, Lin Chen struck each one until they shattered, erasing the arrow holes, and stopped only then.

After finishing all this, Lin Chen tore off a piece of cloth to cover his face, then headed off swiftly in the direction from which the five sea demons came.

...

...

Canglan Martial Arts Academy!

The air was thick with the scent of blood!

Especially at the Canglan Mountains, where Hua Qianwu and several vice-deans were battling opponents, and within the mountains, the instructors of the Canglan Martial Arts Academy, including those Grade-Entering Disciples, were also engaged in fierce combat with the sea demons.

This was a battle where neither side had any retreat.

Bang!

Hua Qianwu wielded a longsword, repelling a powerful sea demon, and glanced at the mountain below with anger in his eyes.

The number of Canglan Sea Demons far exceeded the academy’s disciples and instructors; if this went on, the academy couldn’t stop the sea demons.

"By calculation, the reinforcements should have arrived; could something have gone wrong?"

In addition to the Canglan Martial Arts Academy, there was also the Canglan Prefecture, where there were over a dozen Grade-Entering Martial Artists; logically, they should have noticed the commotion here and come to support long ago.
