Chapter 40 Melee

Lin Chen's curiosity was aroused, and he reached out and grabbed the box. The box looked a bit old, and the sides were even a little faded, as if it had been here for a while.

When he opened the box, there was a snow-white jade pendant inside, which looked nothing special.

Lin Chen injected a trace of true energy into the jade pendant, but there was no reaction at all. Seeing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but wonder.

"General spiritual objects will react as long as they are injected with true energy. This jade pendant was injected with my true energy, but there was no reaction at all. What's going on?"

Logically speaking, the fact that this box can hinder his soul power is enough to show that this box is unusual, and the things it contains, the jade pendant inside should not be ordinary things.

Unable to figure out what the jade pendant is for, Lin Chen didn't think much about it, and put it into the storage spirit ring together with the box.

The most urgent thing is to break into the secret realm of Tianluo Mountain!

As for the function of the jade pendant, it won't be too late to explore it after becoming an inner disciple.

After putting away the jade pendant, Lin Chen stepped on the Qingyun Step and quickly headed towards the exit of the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm.

After a cup of tea, Lin Chen passed through a hall and came to a square. At this moment, more than 20 disciples were standing in the square, and the lowest cultivation level was the late seventh level of the Body Refining Realm.

More importantly, right in front of the square, there was a tightly closed door that was more than ten meters wide!

That door was exactly the same as the one Lin Chen passed when he entered the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm. It was undoubtedly the exit of the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm!

Seeing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face.

After working hard for a long time, he finally arrived here before the exit opened.

At the same time, Lin Chen's arrival also attracted the attention of dozens of people in the square.

These dozens of people, whose cultivation levels ranged from the late seventh level of the Body Refining Realm to the peak of the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm, turned their heads and looked at Lin Chen when they saw him coming.

"The sixth level of the physical realm?"

When they saw that Lin Chen's cultivation was only the late sixth level of the physical realm, everyone's faces suddenly showed surprise.

A warrior in the late sixth level of the physical realm could actually arrive here before the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm was opened!

You should know that there is a long distance from the entrance to the exit of the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm. More importantly, there are various puppets blocking the way. The closer to the exit, the stronger the obstacles of the puppets. Even a disciple of the seventh level of the physical realm will find it difficult to rush through the obstacles of the puppets and arrive here within two hours.

And Lin Chen, with the cultivation of the late sixth level of the physical realm, arrived at the exit earlier than the average warrior of the seventh level of the physical realm.

"This kid is quite capable!"

"Humph, but the cultivation of the late sixth level of the physical realm, even if it is powerful, it is not that powerful. If he is sensible, he will stay where he is, otherwise..."

The warriors around whispered, and after being slightly surprised by Lin Chen's arrival, they immediately looked disdainful.

Compared with them, Lin Chen, a disciple in the late sixth level of the physical training realm, seemed the weakest and most vulnerable.

Many disciples also recognized Lin Chen and were secretly alert in their hearts.

Dozens of people in the square stood aside, closing their eyes to rest.

"Interesting, interesting! If I remember correctly, this Lin Chen was still in the early sixth level of the physical training realm ten days ago."

In the crowd, Yuan Fei, who was standing against a large bluestone with a big knife on his back, looked at Lin Chen with interest.

As the first disciple of the outer sect, Yuan Fei was powerful and was the first to arrive at the square, so he was closest to the gate of the square.

"In the early sixth level of the physical training realm, he easily defeated Ma Liang. Now that his cultivation has broken through, I wonder how strong he is."

Yuan Fei had a smile on his face. After taking a deep look at Lin Chen, he also closed his eyes to rest and waited for the exit of the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm to open.

At this moment, there was still half a quarter of an hour before the exit of the Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm opened. As time went by, more and more disciples came here, and the number of disciples in the square had reached half a hundred.

These disciples are all elites of the outer sect of Tianji Sect. They have profound cultivation and powerful strength. They are also ambitious and want to compete for the top ten in Tianluo Mountain Secret Realm.

Lin Chen stood in an inconspicuous corner without any expression.

When the disciples in the square saw Lin Chen like this, their disdain became stronger, and no disciples paid attention to him.

Time passed little by little.

The atmosphere in the square began to become solemn. Everyone opened their eyes and looked at the door in front of them nervously.

Dang!

Suddenly, a dull bell sounded in the whole square, and at the same time, the door in front of them slowly opened.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the whole square was solemn to the extreme. Everyone held their breath and stared at the door in front of them.

Click!

After a moment, the door opened completely, making a loud click. And the disciples in the square also boiled at this moment.

"The top ten is mine!" A warrior in the late seventh level of the physical training realm roared, and slapped a disciple in front of him.

"Humph, I almost made it into the top ten last time, I can definitely make it this time!" On the other side, a disciple at the peak of the seventh level of the physical training realm snorted coldly, drew out his long sword in an instant, and stabbed at the disciple in front who was blocking the way.

Like a gunpowder barrel, the whole square was instantly ignited at this moment, boiling and fighting.

Even Yuan Fei, the first outer disciple in the front, was not spared. He was surrounded by Pei Liangping, the second outer disciple who was second only to him, and several other outer disciples who were in the top ten, and attacked each other.

Originally, Pei Liangping and the other outer disciples who were in the top ten would not be able to unite, but at this moment, Yuan Fei was closest to the gate and was most likely to leave here first, so these people tacitly cooperated to deal with Yuan Fei at this moment.

"Ah..."

"Get out of here!"

"You want to grab the top ten!"

Screams and scoldings came from time to time in his ears. Lin Chen drew out his fine steel sword and walked straight towards the gate.

Originally, Lin Chen stayed in the corner, and his cultivation was the lowest among the crowd, so no one came to trouble him. At this moment, as soon as he walked out, two disciples attacked him immediately.

"Boy, get out of here!"

"You dare to compete for the top ten at the sixth level of the Body Refining Realm? You are simply ignorant."

The two disciples are both at the late seventh level of the Body Refining Realm, but they are unknown in the outer sect. They are obviously hiding deliberately, hoping to make a splash in the secret realm of Tianluo Mountain.

However, just as the two disciples walked to Lin Chen's side, Lin Chen suddenly raised the fine steel sword in his hand and slashed out two swords in succession.

Swish!

Two flashes of sword light flashed by.

Before the two disciples could see clearly how Lin Chen drew his sword, they felt a sharp pain and their bodies could not help but retreat violently backwards.

Seeing this scene, the pupils of the disciples next to him shrank sharply, and a flash of fear flashed in their eyes.

One sword, kill two warriors at the late seventh level of the Body Refining Realm in seconds!

Lin Chen's cultivation level broke through, and his strength increased again. Now he can deal with warriors at the late seventh level of the Body Refining Realm without any effort.

After repelling the two warriors, Lin Chen held the fine steel sword and continued to move forward.

The square was still in chaos. Yuan Fei fought with Pei Liangping and several other top ten outer disciples the most fiercely. What surprised everyone was that Yuan Fei was still firmly in the upper hand under the siege of these people, but he was repeatedly stopped by Pei Liangping and others when he was about to rush into the gate. .

As time passed, more and more disciples were injured in the square, but at the same time, basically few disciples came to trouble Lin Chen. Because in their opinion, Lin Chen, a warrior with the cultivation of the sixth level of the body refining realm, was not worth fighting with them for the top ten. It would not take long for him to be beaten down and he would never dare to join the ranks of the top ten again.

In this way, Lin Chen easily came to a place hundreds of meters away from the gate.

A hundred meters is not far for a warrior, and it can be reached in a breath. Therefore, this place is almost the place that all disciples pay attention to. Seeing that Lin Chen, a disciple of the sixth level of the body refining realm, actually rushed here, everyone was stunned.

A few disciples in the eighth level of the physical training realm also turned their eyes to Lin Chen.

At this moment, the top three have not yet decided the winner. Lin Chen standing here is not just a simple grab for the top ten, but the first place!

For a moment, Lin Chen suddenly became the focus of everyone.

But soon, a burst of scolding started.

"How dare you, boy, you are only in the late sixth level of the physical training realm, and you dare to grab the first place!"

"Come down quickly, or you will know how to write the word death!"

The disciples around cursed in a low voice. They were in the seventh and eighth levels of the physical training realm, and they could not rush there. Lin Chen was only in the late sixth level of the physical training realm, but he took the lead and was about to grab the first place.

Immediately, some disciples lost their temper and attacked Lin Chen directly.

"I, Chen Xiaofeng, didn't get the first place, and you want to grab the first place!"

A young man in the middle eighth level of the physical training realm shouted angrily, raised his big knife, and chopped at Lin Chen.

It was Chen Xiaofeng, who ranked third in the outer sect!

The blade was very fast, and the wind was whistling. If this blade was used by another sixth-level warrior in the Body Refining Realm, there would be no way to dodge it, and the only outcome would be being attacked. The consequences of being attacked would be absolutely disastrous.

Seeing this, Lin Chen, who was about to step into the gate first, could not help but stop helplessly. He was also surprised to be able to come to this place so easily, but as he expected, someone would attack him immediately.

"Phantom Sword!"

Lin Chen shouted in a low voice, and the fine steel sword in his hand quickly struck out, and the speed was much faster than Chen Xiaofeng's blade speed. Immediately, after leaving several afterimages in the air, he accurately attacked his broadsword.

Dang!

Sparks flew at the intersection of the two weapons, and the next moment, a look of surprise flashed across Chen Xiaofeng's face. In the previous attack, he used 80% of his true energy, but he failed to defeat Lin Chen, but only pushed him back a few steps.

After Lin Chen retreated a few steps, he raised the fine steel sword in his hand and stabbed several swords in a row.

The warriors around were all shocked. They thought that Chen Xiaofeng could injure Lin Chen, the ignorant guy, with one blow. But Lin Chen just took a few steps back and raised his sword to fight back.

The contempt on Chen Xiaofeng's face was swept away, and he showed a solemn look. The true energy in his body was agitated, and he raised his big knife and chopped several times.

Bang bang bang bang...

In an instant, the sound of swords and knives clashing in the square came one after another. Every attack made the disciples around tremble with fear.

You have to know that Chen Xiaofeng is a warrior in the middle stage of the eighth level of the body refining realm, ranked third in the outer sect, and his strength can be said to be the top in the entire outer sect. If it were them, they would probably have been hit by the big knife and fell to the ground unconscious.
