Chapter 311: Chapter 38: Severing the Nine Revolutions Golden Core with a Blade, Pursued by the Blood Pupil Old Fiend! (Part 2)

At the same time, Lin Chen was frantically fleeing in Fog Mountain.

He was very familiar with the terrain of Fog Mountain!

In recent years, whether setting up the Mist Array or digging tunnels in the depths of Fog Mountain, Lin Chen had explored its terrain thoroughly.

Even though his Divine Sense was greatly disturbed, Lin Chen could still use the locator to determine the location of the underground safe house.

“In Fog Mountain, the nearest safe house… is less than a hundred miles away!”

Lin Chen took a deep breath.

A hundred-mile distance was just a matter of one or two minutes for him.

But this was a life-and-death minute… because the Ghost-Eyed Old Monster behind him was even faster.

At this moment, within Lin Chen’s perception, the Blood Pupil Old Monster was already less than ten miles away from him.

In a few more breaths, he might catch up…

“Damned old demon…”

“Hmm? This place seems familiar…”

Lin Chen’s heart stirred, and he did not head directly for the safe house, but took a slight detour.

This detour brought the Blood Pupil Old Monster even closer.

…

The Blood Pupil Old Monster, looking at Lin Chen getting closer, became increasingly excited.

“Young body, here I come…”

The Blood Pupil Old Monster couldn’t help but lick his lips; he had had enough of his current decrepit flesh body.

But as he turned around, Lin Chen, who had originally been only a few miles away from the Blood Pupil Old Monster, suddenly disappeared from his senses.

“Hmm? This is… an Illusion Array!”

The Blood Pupil Old Monster was immediately anxious, his eyes turning scarlet.

He used a Technique to try breaking this array.

…

Successfully luring the Blood Pupil Old Monster into the Mist Array, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thankfully, this Mist Array set up by the Righteous Alliance finally came in handy.”

Lin Chen thought to himself.

This Mist Array was something he had personally helped set up back in the day, so he was naturally more than familiar with its routes and array triggers.

After leading the Blood Pupil Old Monster into the Mist Array, Lin Chen ran another twenty miles in one breath.

He had to escape quickly, as that Mist Array couldn’t trap Blood Pupil Old Monster for long…

Just as this thought rose in Lin Chen’s mind, he felt the array’s disruption being breached behind him.

The Blood Pupil Old Monster locked onto Lin Chen again and pursued him.

The Mist Array only delayed the Blood Pupil Old Monster by a few breaths.

But it was enough!

Behind him, the Blood Pupil Old Monster continued to chase relentlessly.

But suddenly, Lin Chen disappeared again from his Divine Sense perception.

“Huh? Where did he go…”

The Blood Pupil Old Monster was dumbfounded; he arrived at the place where Lin Chen had last disappeared and searched carefully around but still didn’t feel Lin Chen’s presence.

“Could it be, trapped by another array?”

The Blood Pupil Old Monster frowned tightly, but he could still detect if there was an array around him.

After searching for a moment, the Blood Pupil Old Monster became increasingly frantic.

“Damn it! Damn it!”

“How could that little rascal have run away… I had already caught up!”

The Blood Pupil Old Monster went mad, furiously searching through the Fog Mountain range.

He was destined never to find Lin Chen, who had already delved into the depths of the earth.

But instead, he found many Golden Core Cultivators from the Righteous Alliance who were also fleeing.

The result, needless to say…

…

Meanwhile, deep beneath the Fog Mountain range.

Lin Chen was using the Earth Escape Technique, desperately fleeing.

With his current Seven-Turned Golden Core level, combined with his peak mastery of the Earth Escape Technique, his tunneling speed was astonishing.

Within just a few breaths, Lin Chen had tunneled to a depth of a thousand feet underground.

Afterward, Lin Chen dared not linger, fleeing all the way.

A hundred miles, five hundred miles…

Not until Lin Chen escaped to the safe house a thousand miles deep underground did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

“Phew, it’s finally over…”

Lin Chen took out Spirit Stones and Pills to restore his True Essence Magical Power while beginning to heal his injuries.

In the battle with Puppet Luo Ming, Lin Chen had sustained some injuries.

After half a two-hour, Lin Chen’s injuries were mostly healed, yet he still did not dare return to the surface.

Instead, he directly tunneled to the area beneath Qinghe City.

Lin Chen didn’t return directly to Qinghe City but took out the spoils of this battle.

Several Storage Bags from over ten Golden Core Demon Cultivators, two Spiritual Artifact Long Spears…

And, Puppet Luo Ming!

Lin Chen broke the Restriction on the Storage Bags, extracting the valuable resources from them.

Such as Spirit Stones, Pills, ancient books…

Regarding things like Magical Treasures, Lin Chen destroyed them all, along with the dozen or so Storage Bags.

Magical Treasures are the easiest to leave behind Restrictions and tracking marks.

After doing all this, Lin Chen looked at the two Red Spears in his hands.

He gently stroked the spear shafts, feeling the chill and faintly sensing an infinite battle intent.

“So heavy!”

As soon as the spear was in his hand, Lin Chen felt an extreme weight.

He estimated that just these two Long Spears weighed nearly a million pounds.

A regular cultivator would find it difficult even to lift them, let alone use them.

“Although I am very strong, long-term use of these spears… would be a bit strenuous.”

“However, once I break through to Martial Monarch, this weight should be just right.”

Lin Chen thought secretly, observing for a moment longer.

As he sensed a slight anomaly from within the spears, Lin Chen’s heart stirred.

“These two Long Spears seem to have a degree of Spirituality…”

At this time, the Celestial Derivation Pearl spoke.

“Master, the spirit of this spear is already dead…”

The spirit is dead?

Lin Chen was curious, “Hmm? What do you mean?”

The Celestial Derivation Pearl then explained:

“These two Long Spears are Spiritual Artifact-grade treasures… They should have birthed spirits long ago!”

“Of course, the spear spirits were definitely not as high-level as myself… But they should have developed a rudimentary wisdom.”

“However, in battle, the spear’s spirit perished along with its master… thus only a faint Spirituality remains.”

Pausing for a moment, the Celestial Derivation Pearl continued:

“However, the material of these two Long Spears is indeed extraordinary!”

“If an appropriate spirit can be found to nurture it for a while… maybe this spear can regain its former might.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen’s heart was subtly stirred. He asked:

“Oh? You mean… the material of these spears can foster Spirituality?”

“What if I were to melt these two spears down into a blade… then what?”

After hearing this, the Celestial Derivation Pearl hesitated for a moment.

For him, recasting the spears, which are also Magical Treasures,

is akin to breaking down a person, and remaking them?

However, after thinking for a moment, he agreed:

“It’s possible. The most important thing in Artifact Refining is the material… The material of these two spears is very rare even in Qing State.”

“I guess it must have been passed down from above.”

“But, if the Artifact Refiner’s skills aren’t sufficient in the reforging, this material would be greatly wasted.”

“Moreover, these Treasures of Heaven and Earth cannot be smelted with ordinary flames; at least a Spiritual Fire ranked in the top fifty is needed…”

After hearing this, Lin Chen was indifferent.

A Spiritual Fire ranked in the top fifty?

That means it needs extremely high flame temperatures!

In the natural world, the temperature of mortal flames is limited, hard to smelt…

But isn’t this a coincidence?

In the Artifact Refining Room of the Great Xia Country, even flames of hundreds of thousands, millions of degrees can be generated.

“Hmm, this Long Spear might also have Restrictions.”

“I should take it back to Blue Star and have an expert reforge it…”

Lin Chen thought silently.

Afterward, he set his gaze on Puppet Luo Ming.

After Puppet Hall Master Wu Xing’s death, this puppet lost its master and ceased moving.

It sat silently in front of Lin Chen, expressionless and motionless, like a dead person.

Lin Chen extended his hand, tapping on the puppet’s body.

Then he revealed a look of amazement:

“No wonder it’s the flesh body of a Nascent Soul Body Cultivator… Whether it’s the recovery power or toughness, both are astonishing.”

Lin Chen observed the previous injuries he inflicted; in less than a two-hour, it had healed considerably.

“Even the surface of this skin seems to have been refined using special Treasures of Heaven and Earth.”

“Its defense is terrifying…”

If it weren’t for Wu the Old Monster foolishly tunneling into this puppet’s body,

with just the instinct left in this flesh body, Lin Chen might not have won.

“A mere physical shell of such strength, how strong was Senior Luo Ming once?”

Lin Chen couldn’t help but ponder.

“However, regardless of how strong… this puppet cannot appear in the Cultivation Realm for the time being…”
