Chapter 115: Accepting the Challenge

Lin Chen fought with the black silver crocodile for a short time. When the black silver crocodile that was blown away by Lin Chen reacted, the battle was over and Lin Chen won.

"Awoo!"

The black silver crocodile that was blown away before saw this and immediately cried out in grief. Generally speaking, two level 4 top-level monsters will not appear in the same area at the same time, but these two black silver crocodiles stayed in the same place peacefully. Obviously, they have recognized each other and have an extraordinary relationship.

At this moment, one of the black silver crocodiles was killed by Lin Chen, and the black silver crocodile was immediately furious.

However, the black silver crocodile that was killed by Lin Chen before was about to break through to the level 5 low-level monster, while this black silver crocodile was still at the top level of the fourth level and showed no signs of breaking through. Even the stronger black silver crocodile was killed by Lin Chen, so how could it be Lin Chen's opponent as a monster alone.

The black silver crocodile screamed in grief, kicked its four legs, and rushed towards Lin Chen with its huge body. Its heavy body stepped on the ground, making a series of dull sounds, full of momentum.

Lin Chen's face did not change, and he also moved his body, and suddenly the whole person was like an eagle, rushing forward. At the same time, the sword energy in his body was released, covering the cold iron sword again, and stabbing straight out.

Puff...

A slight sound sounded. Lin Chen's cold iron sword landed heavily on the head of the black silver crocodile, and the sword energy hit it, easily cutting off the head of the black silver crocodile with one sword!

The black silver crocodile did not even hum, and fell to the ground with a slight twitch. After a while, there was no breath.

"Roar."

"Ah~"

Almost at the same time as the black silver crocodile was killed, a series of low roars of monsters came to his ears.

Lin Chen is now in the depths of the swamp, and most of the monsters that appear are level 4 top monsters. At this moment, Lin Chen killed two black silver crocodiles, and a lot of blood gushed out. Monster beasts are very sensitive to blood. It may not be long before a level 4 top monster beast will come here.

Once these monster beasts come and surround Lin Chen, even if Lin Chen is powerful, he is very likely to fall here.

Hearing the roar of the monster beast, Lin Chen immediately walked to the two black silver crocodiles and cut off their skins with the cold iron sword. Then he used the cold iron sword in his hand to forcefully pick the chest of the black silver crocodile, and immediately two level 4 top inner pills appeared in front of him.

After putting these four things away, Lin Chen cut off the claws of the black silver crocodile.

The most valuable thing about the black silver crocodile is its black silver skin and inner pill, but its claws are also extremely hard, which is an excellent material for refining weapons. Lin Chen doesn't want to miss it.

After doing all this, Lin Chen stepped on the Qingyun Step and quickly went out of the swamp.

Almost immediately after Lin Chen left, several black shadows appeared at the place where Lin Chen and the black silver crocodile fought...

...

It took three days for Lin Chen to return to Tianji Sect from the swamp of Molian Mountain Range.

In the inner sect mission hall of Tianji Sect, many inner sect disciples were selecting missions at this moment, and Lin Chen walked straight in.

"Hey, isn't he Lin Chen?" An inner sect disciple noticed Lin Chen, paused, and said.

"Lin Chen? Where is he!" Hearing the words of this inner sect disciple, many inner sect disciples who were selecting missions turned their heads, as if they wanted to find Lin Chen.

"It's the late ninth level of the body refining realm!"

"Him? No way, it's really the late ninth level of the body refining realm."

"Awesome, the late ninth level of the body refining realm has entered the Tianji list. We haven't had such a genius in our inner sect for decades."

Many disciples looked at Lin Chen with admiration.

While everyone was talking, Lin Chen had already walked in front of the elder of the mission hall.

The elder of the Mission Hall obviously still remembered Lin Chen. When he saw Lin Chen coming over, he was stunned and said in surprise: "Lin Chen, have you completed the mission?"

Lin Chen smiled, flipped his hand, took out a complete black silver crocodile skin, and said: "Reply to the elder, it's done."

Seeing Lin Chen take out the black silver crocodile skin, the elder of the Mission Hall was stunned again, and then praised: "Not bad, the fourth-level top-level black silver crocodile is also the top among the monsters of the same level. You can kill a black silver crocodile, which is very good!"

He took the black silver crocodile skin, added contribution points to Lin Chen's nameplate, and smiled: "Lin Chen, this mission is a four-star mission, you can get 600 contribution points and 6,000 low-grade spirit stones."

As he said, he handed Lin Chen's nameplate and a storage ring to Lin Chen.

Seeing this scene, many disciples around him suddenly widened their eyes and looked at Lin Chen like a monster.

"What, a four-star mission?"

"What a joke, Lin Chen actually completed a four-star mission!"

"No wonder he can enter the Tianji list, he actually has such strength."

Four-star missions are generally accepted by disciples in the late and peak stages of the Tiangang realm. The mission is difficult, and it is almost impossible for warriors in the early and middle stages of the Tiangang realm to accept it. As for warriors in the body-refining realm, it is undoubtedly a suicide mission.

However, Lin Chen successfully completed a four-star mission with the cultivation of the ninth level of the body-refining realm.

Hearing the discussions of the disciples around him, Lin Chen was startled, and suddenly remembered that Xie Wei was the 489th on the Tianji list. He defeated Xie Wei, and naturally replaced Xie Wei's ranking on the Tianji list.

The change in the ranking of the Tianji Sect also caused a great uproar in the inner sect. The previous Lin Chen was unknown, but now he defeated Xie Wei with the cultivation of the ninth level of the body-refining realm, which attracted the attention of many veteran disciples in the inner sect.

Hearing the discussion of the disciples, the elder of the Mission Hall smiled slightly. Of course, the more disciples like Lin Chen, the better. The more talented disciples, the stronger the sect.

"Okay, Lin Chen, don't forget that you still have two tasks to do this month. Otherwise, some of your contribution points will be deducted." The elder of the Mission Hall kindly reminded.

"Thank you for the reminder, elder." Lin Chen nodded slightly, turned around, and accepted two more four-star tasks in the four-star task column. After registering with the elder of the Mission Hall, he turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing this, many disciples in the Mission Hall who were selecting tasks took a breath and looked at each other.

"Another four-star task, so amazing!"

"As expected of a genius disciple on the Tianji list, I can only take one three-star task. Lin Chen took two four-star tasks in a row."

But soon, these disciples showed envy on their faces. The four-star task rewards are quite generous. After completing the four-star task, Lin Chen will get a lot of contribution points.

Lin Chen walked out of the mission hall slowly and was about to leave, but at this moment, a cold voice suddenly came: "Lin Chen, stop."

Then he saw a group of six people coming straight towards Lin Chen from the square, led by a warrior in the middle stage of Tiangang Realm with a blank expression on his face. It was him who spoke just now.

Lin Chen took a look at the man, who was about 20 years old, with a sharp sword on his waist, and a powerful aura, which was no less than Xie Wei.

But Lin Chen didn't know him at all. Lin Chen said expressionlessly: "What's the matter?"

"Lin Chen, I, Zhuang Hongfei, formally challenge you!"

Zhuang Hongfei's voice was loud.

Many disciples on the square heard this and immediately turned their heads and looked at Lin Chen with excitement.

"What, Zhuang Hongfei challenged Lin Chen?"

"Lin Chen is the 489th on the Tianji list. Zhuang Hongfei must want to defeat Lin Chen and get on the Tianji list."

The Tianji Sect stipulates that if a disciple challenges a disciple on the Tianji list, the disciple on the Tianji list must fight back. This also causes frequent changes in the rankings on the Tianji list. More importantly, under such fierce competition, the disciples will work hard to practice and do their best to improve their strength.

Lin Chen defeated Xie Wei and replaced Xie Wei's ranking on the Tianji list, making his reputation famous in the inner sect, and many inner sect disciples noticed Lin Chen.

It is precisely because of this that some disciples with extraordinary strength who want to be on the Tianji list want to enter the Tianji list by defeating Lin Chen.

After all, Lin Chen's cultivation is the lowest on the Tianji list, but he is in the late ninth level of the body refining realm, which seems to be much easier to deal with than other disciples in the early and middle stages of the Tiangang realm.

"Okay! But I don't have time now, let's talk about it in a few days." Lin Chen said, he still has to do the sect mission, no time to delay here.

As he said, Lin Chen continued to walk forward.

Hearing this, a smug look flashed across Zhuang Hongfei's face. He flashed his body and blocked Lin Chen, saying: "Lin Chen, I don't know how you defeated Xie Wei, but if you want to stay on the Tianji list, it's best to practice for a few years first. Don't worry, I will show mercy in the battle later, you don't have to delay time."

Zhuang Hongfei obviously thought that Lin Chen was afraid, so he delayed time.

Hearing Zhuang Hongfei's words, the eyes of the disciples around him lit up. Yes, Lin Chen's cultivation was only in the late ninth level of the body refining realm. Even if he had good talent and strength, compared with the Tiangang realm warriors, the capacity of true qi in his dantian alone was much more than him.

Some disciples were even more annoyed. Now Zhuang Hongfei had challenged Lin Chen first. If Zhuang Hongfei defeated Lin Chen, it would be too late to defeat Lin Chen to get on the Tianji list.

Some disciples also waited and watched. Lin Chen was able to defeat Xie Wei, so his strength must be extraordinary, not to mention that he had completed the four-star task.

When Lin Chen heard Zhuang Hongfei's words, his brows slightly frowned. He had already said that he would accept Zhuang Hongfei's challenge when he returned to the sect in a few days. Who knew that the latter would still block his way.

When Zhuang Hongfei saw Lin Chen frowning, his face became more proud, and he was more certain that Lin Chen was worried about losing to him, so he delayed the challenge time.

"Lin Chen, I will fight quickly and will not delay you too much time." Zhuang Hongfei said with a faint smile.

Lin Chen nodded slightly. Since he couldn't avoid it, he had to fight. He immediately said: "Okay, let's start now."

"Well, you be careful." Zhuang Hongfei laughed, and with a clang, he drew out the sword from his waist and stabbed Lin Chen.

Zhuang Hongfei's attack was simple, just using the true qi to attack, but the power was not something that ordinary ninth-level warriors of the body refining realm could resist.

Seeing this, Lin Chen also pulled out the cold iron sword from his waist with a clang.

Then, the cold iron sword in his hand flashed and stabbed Zhuang Hongfei's sword accurately.

Bang!

Sparks flashed where the two swords intersected, and then both of them retreated. Zhuang Hongfei smiled lightly and said, "Not bad, you have some strength. It seems that you are different from ordinary warriors in the body refining realm. But with your strength, I am afraid you can't keep your place on the Tianji list."
