Chapter 872: Chapter 875: Arrival_1

Seeing Lin Zhen step in front of him, Mu En’s face darkened. “Lin Zhen, although your elixir is beneficial for the squad, it does not mean you can overstep. Remember, in this small team, you are at the bottom!”

Lin Zhen glanced around, noticing a group of people approaching from behind. He snorted through his nostrils, “Since Brother Mu is so concerned about position, you can go ahead.”

Mu En did not stand on ceremony and strode forward, pushing Lin Zhen to the back.

Just then, the team from behind arrived, and Mu En, in his rush to move ahead, pushed them to the side as well.

The leader of the other team, was glaring at him. With a razor-sharp gaze fixed on Mu En, he declared, “Kid, you’re courting death!”

Mu En felt a chill run down his spine as the man glanced at him. He felt as if he could be crushed to death by the man at any moment.

Mu En recognized this man, though the man did not recognize him. Very few among the martial artists of Tianfang City wouldn’t recognize this man.

The King-sealing Powerhouse of Tianfang City, The Demigod, Soul Chasing King!

“Elder…elder…I…I…I…”

The massive power disparity, compounded by his fear, left Mu En unable to articulate a complete sentence.

Soul Chasing King sneered. “It seems you recognize me. You should know then why I’m called the Soul Chasing King. All who catch my eyes lose their souls. Are you a Tianfang City martial artist? How dare you push me! It seems you’re tired of living!”

Soul Chasing King now towered in front of Mu En. His towering body seemed to overshadow him, stretching out a hand and clutching Mu En’s skull.

Mu En was trembling all over during this process, scared out of his wits.

Lv Tianhua and others in front saw this and wanted to intervene. But Soul Chasing King was not alone. Along with him were two demigods and two in the Divine Stone Realm. The cold glare sent their way was enough to halt Lv Tianhua and the others.

Such is the difference brought about by power. Nobody dares to act rashly in the face of absolute power.

Mu En felt that he was done for. The Soul Chasing King could crush him like an ant here, and no one would be able to save him. It would take a being of the Soul Chasing King’s stature to possibly change his mind.

However, Mu En knew no such powerhouse. No one would stand up for him.

He deeply regretted squabbling with Lin Zhen. If he had observed more carefully then, nothing like this would have happened.

“Elder Soul Chasing King, this man is part of my team. May I ask you to spare him?” A voice sounded.

The crowd, who were initially watching the scene unfold, all turned their heads.

To Mu En’s disbelief, the one pleading for him was Lin Zhen!

Chen Yuan and the others looked anxiously. While Lin Zhen was indeed a Saint Master, how could he compare with Soul Chasing King?

That was a King-sealing powerhouse who commanded the Endless Battlefield. He had seen all manner of big shots, and might not necessarily favor Lin Zhen.

However, much to everyone’s surprise, upon turning around and seeing Lin Zhen, the Soul Chasing King flashed a brilliant smile.

“Haha! It turns out it’s young Brother Lin. I didn’t recognize you. Had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have made this misunderstanding. Since he’s your team member, let’s consider this matter settled!”

With that, the Soul Chasing King released Mu En. Clapping his hands, he moved over to Lin Zhen and draped his arm around him. “Thanks to you last time. That God Crystal suited me perfectly. After this storm ends, I will definitely become a god. I will surely repay you for your kindness!”

“Oh, please, you paid for it.”

“No, compared to the 7 billion that guy Wuqing paid, I only spent 6 billion. I made a profit! And the crystal was a perfect match. You helped me at a crucial moment and even helped me defeat Wuqing once. Rest assured, Brother, I will remember this favor.”

Soul Chasing King gave Lin Zhen a hearty pat on the shoulder. “This isn’t the place to chat. If we meet again at Windstorm Eye, let’s have a good talk.”

Lin Zhen nodded in agreement. Soul Chasing King then turned to Mu En.

“Hey, kid! Today, I am sparing your life out of respect for my brother Lin Zhen. Next time, watch your steps. Many could crush you like an insect in this place. Understand?”

With that, he actually pinched Mu En’s cheek, causing him considerable pain. Mu En could only nod and put on a strained smile, not daring to show anger.

“Alright, Brother Lin. Take care. Feel free to find me if you need anything!”

The two demigods and the two in the Divine Stone Realm who were with the Soul Chasing King also bid Lin Zhen goodbye with smiles on their faces, and went ahead.

The squads who were queued ahead and saw the Soul Chasing King and his companions coming, all laughed and made way. They all passed through the crowd without any obstructions.

It was only then that Lv Tianhua and others came beside Lin Zhen. Lv Tianhua didn’t spare Mu En a second glance. Instead, he directed his words to Lin Zhen. “Junior brother, you actually know Elder Soul Chasing King?”

“Yes, we’ve met before.”

“That’s great! Lord Soul Chasing King is a King-Sealing Powerhouse. If you encounter any danger in Windstorm Eye, you could mention his name. Many people would give face to him.”

Lin Zhen laughed: “It’s better not to report it.”

“Yes, that’s right, we should keep a low profile.”

After Lv Tianhua finished speaking, he looked at the gloomy-faced Mu En: “What were you thinking? If Lin Zhen did not know Soul Chasing King today, our team might have been implicated because of you. As a Martial Artist, don’t you even understand the basic rule of respecting the strong ones?”

Mu En bowed his head and did not speak, looking incredibly despondent.

Lv Tianhua didn’t say much else. He led the group to continue lining up.

After queuing for about an hour, they finally arrived at the check-in.

The so-called check-in is to verify their identities, ensuring that those eligible to enter the Storm Eye are allowed, and to prevent other Martial Artists from sneaking in.

At the check-in, the inspector checked their identities carefully.

All five of them could enter the Storm Eye, but other intelligent beings couldn’t just come in, such as Lin Zhen’s Nine-headed Lion, Double-headed Dragon etc.. These creatures were forbidden to leave Lin Zhen’s inner world during the Storm Eye period to prevent taking a large number of other life forms into the Storm Eye.

This also included Lv Tianhua’s Dragon Car coachman, who was prohibited from leaving Lv Tianhua’s inner world.

“You’re clear now, team from Tianfang City. You can proceed to the Storm Eye, but I need to remind you before entering – if you find a Divine Stone and want to exchange it for Treasure, you need to place the Divine Stone in your inner world, imbibe it with a trace of your World Power, then take it out to exchange for the Treasure you want on the exchange panel. A Divine’s Envoy will then locate you based on your World Power and come to you for the exchange. Take out only as many Divine Stones as are needed for the exchange. Understand?”

They all nodded gradually, expressing their understanding.

“Furthermore, you can also gain Points by fighting the Endless Species, which can help elevate your Star level, so the Endless Battlefield encourages fighting. However, eliminating the Ground Clan will not earn you any Points.”

Having understood, Lin Zhen and the others quickly passed the inspection and the checkpoint.

After the checkpoint, there was a suspended bridge ahead, hundreds of meters long, pointing straight towards the Storm Eye.

The slowly rotating storm had already stopped, and they could now enter the Storm Eye.

Upon reaching the bridgehead, Lv Tianhua summoned the Azure Dragon Car and they all got in.

Now it was Lv Tianhua himself driving the car.

“Let’s go!”

The Azure Dragon let out a long chant and, shaking its head and swinging its tail, it sped towards the Star System of Storm Eye.

The flight this time took almost a day. Only after quite some time did they gradually enter the Star System of Storm Eye.

Looking out the window, they saw floating light blue fragments everywhere which, without the wind, just floated in the air. The Dragon Car had to carefully avoid these objects when moving.

Occasionally they would encounter a planet which looked torn and scattered, like a broken ball, unsure of what force had caused its destruction.

Aboard the Dragon Car, Lv Tianhua was examining a map.

“I checked the terrain when I came here. Our target is the Planet Graveyard. It was a battlefield of a major war, suitable for our adventure. Even if we meet rivals, they should be of similar strength to us. If we can establish ourselves at the Planet Graveyard, this Storm Eye journey won’t be in vain.”

“Can the exact location of the Planet Graveyard be determined?”

“Yes, it can. Based on our current coordinates, the Planet Graveyard is located 50,000 light years west, whereas the Intersecting Continent lies 80,000 light years east. There are several teleportation circles en route. I’ll share their coordinates with you shortly.”

Arudi asked, “What about Wind Thunder Valley?”

“Wind Thunder Valley is straight ahead, about 100,000 light years away. These three places are the main hotpots of the great war. The Planet Graveyard suffered the greatest losses and had the largest scale. The Intersecting Continent was the elite battlefield, and Wind Thunder Valley was the ultimate battlefield.”

“Are there Divine Stones in other places as well?”

“Yes, but comparatively less. We’ll keep an eye out as we travel. If all goes well, we should reach the Planet Graveyard in about a year. Then our good days will begin.”

Knowing that Divine Stones might also be found in other places, they all looked out of the window.

“Boss, if we travel inside the car, we might miss the Divine Stones on our route. I think we should do this. The five of us should spread out a bit and search as we move forward. This way, we will not miss any Divine Stones. Then, we divide the total number of Divine Stones according to the rules we agreed upon before.”

Hearing Chen Yuan speak, Lv Tianhua nodded. After seeing the list of treasures, each of them was eager to find Divine Stones.

A single Heavenly Spirit Fruit could be exchanged for three Divine Stones. If they were to sell this fruit in the outside world, it would fetch several millions for each, or even tens of millions!

“Alright, since everyone agrees, let’s start right now.”

All five of them left the Dragon Car, keeping a distance of ten thousand meters from one another, ready to proceed in a net-like formation.
