Chapter 128: Victory Outside the Chessboard

"Hmm?" Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, and felt the inquiring eyes of the other four people. He didn't say much, but nodded.

"You guys should leave first." Changqing Zhenren said lightly.

The four people looked at each other, and Zhang Zhiming wanted to say something, but after hesitating again and again, he bowed and left.

After the others left, Changqing Zhenren stroked his beard and said slowly: "Lin Chen, do you know why I kept you here?"

"Isn't it for the benefit?" Lin Chen asked innocently.

"Humph!" Changqing Zhenren paused and snorted coldly, "You kid, why do you only think about the benefits? Aren't you worried about this operation at all?"

"No worries." Lin Chen told the truth.

If the sky falls, there will be tall people to support it. Why should he worry about it? It is more important to do the current things well.

"You!" Changqing Zhenren's face twitched, and he threw his robe, "I am now very doubtful whether you can be trusted?"

"The key to whether you can be trusted is not trust, but benefits." Lin Chen said sincerely, "As long as the ancestor gives more, even the stars in the sky can be picked for you in the future."

Changqing Zhenren looked at Lin Chen and didn't know what to say for a while.

He hadn't even started to do the job, but he was already thinking about adding money.

Forget it, forget it, I'd better not argue with this kid.

Changqing Zhenren took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked: "What do you think is the chance of you winning against those little bastards from Xuanyin Sect?"

Lin Chen thought for a while and said: "If it's one-on-one, our side is not inferior to the opponent, but if it's a team battle..."

Although the true disciples were replaced before the battle, their team may not be inferior to the previous one.

Wang Cheng didn't talk about it, and he didn't count the other party as an effective fighting force, but even so, the other four of them were not simple either.

Zhang Zhiming was a natural spiritual root, and he practiced the sect-guarding skills of Qingyun Sect. He was originally the top strength among the true disciples.

Zhang Mengyao followed the path of sword cultivation, and his fighting power was unique.

He himself was an outlier. As long as he was familiar with the environment and controlled the situation, he could definitely beat the opponent to doubt his life.

And Zhang Hao was suspected to be the protagonist of luck. God knows what opportunities he will gain and what kind of backhand he has.

If the four of them were one-on-one, the opponent would not be a match, but if it was a team battle, it would not be certain.

Because this involves a question of who listens to whom.

If it was before, Zhang Zhiming could still rely on his own identity and strength to forcibly integrate the other true disciples together, but now it is different.

Lin Chen doesn't like to hand over the control to others, not to mention that the other party is weaker than himself. Zhang Hao is an outsider, and when it comes to this kind of life and death struggle, he will not listen to the orders of others.

Zhang Zhiming and Zhang Mengyao don't trust their new disciples.

So they seem to get along well now, but if they really want to fight as a team, I'm afraid they will do their own things and can't form effective cooperation at all.

But...

"... If it's a coordinated fight, we are indeed not at an advantage, but it doesn't matter. I will take action at the critical moment." Lin Chen said lightly.

"Yes, that's what I mean." Who knew that Changqing Zhenren actually nodded along with Lin Chen's words.

"Huh?" Lin Chen looked at him in surprise. He dared to say this because he was confident in his own strength, but Changqing Zhenren had never seen it, so why did he trust him so much?

Facing Lin Chen's puzzled eyes, Changqing Zhenren did not respond, but pointed out something else: "The true qi in your body is atomized, and your soul is close to the foundation-building level. It shouldn't be difficult to impact the foundation-building period, right?"

"That's right." Lin Chen nodded when he heard it. His current state is the result of research, so he naturally has a clear grasp of it.

"The atomized true qi in my body is close to three-fifths of the total amount of Dantian. As long as it is filled, I can advance to the foundation-building stage by myself, and I don't even need to go through the three stages of foundation-building."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Changqing Zhenren looked at Lin Chen with a little surprise, "I originally set up a state of mind test for you in advance, just to train you so that you can quickly pass the soul level. I didn't expect you to be able to do this, but it's just right."

"Please explain it to me, Master." Lin Chen frowned slightly. In the absence of sufficient information, he didn't understand what Changqing Zhenren said.

"The Land of the Fallen God will initially exclude high-level cultivators, but as time goes by, it will allow the existence of foundation-building cultivators."

"And there is a distance from the entrance to the core of the Land of the Fallen God, which is neither long nor short."

"No matter which side wins or loses in your battle at the Land of the Fallen God, it is enough to give birth to the [Enlightenment Stone]."

"Plus, you can break through the foundation-building as quickly as possible, and then rush to the valley entrance and block it."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Chang Qing Zhenren said a few points one by one, and then looked at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen lowered his head and thought for a while, then his eyes condensed, and he looked up at Chang Qing Zhenren: "Grandmaster means that the key to the victory or defeat in this battle for the Land of the Fallen God is not in the Land of the Fallen God, but outside it?"

"That's right." Chang Qing Zhenren nodded and sneered, "Xuan Yin Sect killed our outstanding disciples, in the final analysis, just to weaken our Qi Refining Stage combat power."

"Not only that, I can also be sure that they will definitely have some back-up plan to enhance their advantage in the Land of the Fallen God."

"We don't have the upper hand in the first place. If we still follow the opponent's wishes, we will be asking for death. So instead of fighting head-on with them who have a huge advantage and gambling on luck, it is better to think outside the chessboard and calculate!"

Then, he looked at Lin Chen solemnly: "And the key to this calculation lies in you! The key to the fight for the Enlightenment Stone in the Land of the Fall of the Gods is not the strength of your team, but your breakthrough The speed of the foundation period!”

"It will take at least a quarter of an hour to break through the foundation building stage during the Qi refining stage. If you include the previous preparations and adjustments, it will take at least more than a day. But you are different. You can completely succeed and break through as quickly as possible!"

"After you break through, rush to the exit of the valley as quickly as possible and intercept those true disciples of the Xuanyin Sect who have won the Enlightenment Stone!"

"On the way out of the valley, there is also the shroud of the power of the fallen god. The golden elixir cannot get in. Foundation-building monks and our senior leaders are here to contain it. In addition, you use foundation-building to refine Qi, and the strong defeat the weak, so this is The best time to seize the Enlightenment Stone!"

After hearing this, Lin Chen completely understood the plans of the senior officials of Qingyun Sect.

Instead of being led by Xuanyinmen, it is better to think outside the chessboard.

The key to the calculation lies in Lin Chen's current special state!

For ordinary monks, even Tianlinggen monks, it would take at least half a quarter of an hour to break through. This time would have been enough time for the true disciples of the Xuanyin Sect to hand the Enlightenment Stone into the hands of Master Taiyin.

But Lin Chen is different. In his current state, he can break through in a very short time, then reach the intersection of leaving the valley and intercept him!

In the view of Qingyun Sect Jindan Zhenren, it is impossible for Lin Chen to fight five against one within the same realm, but if he uses foundation building to refine his Qi, he can definitely defeat him!

"Is the decisive victory beyond the chessboard..." After thinking about this, Lin Chen said softly.

The idea of ​​the Qingyun Sect's Golden Pill Patriarchs is very simple. Since the other party is constantly playing dirty tricks to increase their own chips on the chessboard, why should they follow the other party's wishes?

So simply put the key to the layout outside the chessboard to determine the outcome!

"This is exactly our plan." Seeing that he understood what he meant, Master Changqing couldn't help but smile.

"But..." Although he understood, Lin Chen showed hesitation, "Grandmaster, you must also know that the risk of breaking through the foundation building as quickly as possible is not small, so you have to increase... "

"Hmph!" Master Changqing still didn't understand what Lin Chen meant, so he snorted coldly, took out a storage ring and handed it over, "Are these enough?!"

"Huh?" Lin Chen took the storage ring, felt it carefully, and his eyes narrowed.

He originally just wanted a ray of golden elixir origin, but he didn't expect that the golden elixirs of Qingyundan would directly give him a complete golden elixir!

Not only that, the storage ring also contains many foundation-building breakthroughs, even spiritual elixirs for foundation-building monks, as well as hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones!

Not to mention the unique spiritual plants given by Qingyun Sect, Jiu Sui He, Huai Meng Cao, Holy Wood Mandui, Chuanyin Flower, Shouting Peach... and the rights of true disciples to browse all the exercises recorded in the sect at will. Classics and so on.

I'm afraid that all the wealth of a foundation-building elder who has lived for hundreds of years may not be as rich as the resources in this storage ring!

‘Holy shit! So generous? ! I just asked for a little bit, and they gave me the whole thing! Take a look, take a good look, the bosses in the previous life should take a good look, this is the attitude towards talents! ’

"That's enough, that's enough, Patriarch, don't worry! Not to mention the opponent's five Qi Refinings, even five Foundation Buildings, I can get the Enlightenment Stone back!" Lin Chen looked upright and awe-inspiring, "In this fight, Lin Chen must I will devote my whole life to the sect and die!”

"That's enough, you kid, stop pretending in front of me. If you give me so much, all I ask is to take back the Enlightenment Stone!" Master Changqing waved his hand.

"Yes." Lin Chen said decisively, then bowed directly and left.

"Senior Brother Qingyang, this is too much." Looking at Lin Chen's retreating back, Master Changqing sighed softly, with a look of pain on his face.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared next to Master Changqing. It was Master Qingyang, the leader of Qingyun Sect.

"If you don't give a lot, how can you let a genius do his best?" Master Qingyang smiled nonchalantly, "For us, these resources are not much, so why should we be so stingy?"

"But senior brother, do you think he can really win the Enlightenment Stone?" Master Changqing hesitated and finally asked.

Even though he was the one he recommended, Master Changqing was still not sure about the overall situation concerning the life and death of the sect.

"Don't be suspicious of people, don't be suspicious of people you employ." Master Qingyang said calmly, "Besides, he is not the only one who has my plans."

"Huh? Senior brother, do you have other plans?"

"Junior Brother Zhentian is already breaking through the golden elixir." Master Qingyang said, "Junior Brother Zhentian has always been our back-up man. The Xuanyin Sect doesn't know at all that he has already reached the point of breaking through the golden elixir."

"With my junior brother's years of accumulation and the help of the sect, the probability of breaking through the Golden Core is as high as 90%. Once we break through the Golden Core, the four of us can form the [Four Elephant Spirit Sealing Formation]!"

"However, Junior Brother Zhen Tian is the back-up man after all, and is the key to protecting the sect. If possible, it is best not to be exposed..."

…

Lin Chen didn’t know about the conversation between the Qingyun Sect’s Jindan Zhenren after he left.

As soon as he got the storage ring, he rushed back to the mountain where the laboratory was located.

He actually got a complete Jindan, so Lin Chen naturally studied it carefully, explored its secrets, perfected the inner alchemy technique, and paved a way for himself to make Jindan!
