CHAPTER 586: CHAPTER 586 NO OBJECTIONS

"Young Master Xue, do you have any objections now?"

Ling Chen raised his longsword, his left hand gently sweeping across the sword body as he spoke nonchalantly.

"No... none."

Xue Hua immediately shook his head frantically.

He couldn’t even take one sword strike from Ling Chen, how could he have the courage to dispute the qualifications to enter Burning Flame Valley?

"That’s good."

Ling Chen nodded slightly and then turned to the other three people who had come with Xue Hua, smiling, "How about you?"

"No objections!"

The three of them were so scared they retreated several zhang away before stammering their response.

"Hmm."

Ling Chen nodded again and looked towards the seasoned blue-clothed disciples.

At this moment, the eyes of the crowd still held a shocked expression, as if they had not yet recovered from the fight they had just witnessed.

He believed that the strength he had shown should stop these disciples from spreading any more rumors about him being just a pretty face!

"Steward Liu, no one has any more doubts about my qualification to enter Burning Flame Valley; we can set out now."

Ling Chen said with a slight smile toward Steward Liu.

Hearing this, Steward Liu took a deep look at Ling Chen, then turned towards Zhao Yu and the others, saying, "Alright, everyone follow, we’re going to enter Burning Flame Valley."

"Yes."

Everyone quickly responded.

They then followed Steward Liu, turning into beams of light shooting off into the distance.

Seeing Ling Chen and the others leaving, the sounds of discussion rose once again.

"Does anyone know what kind of technique Ling Chen used?"

"Yeah, Ling Chen is only at the first level of Palace Mansion Realm, but from the exchange between the two, Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power seems to surpass the third level Xue Hua, which makes no sense at all!"

"Could it be that Ling Chen doesn’t have a Sacred Body, but a Divine Body instead?"

"Impossible! When a Divine Body is born, it is accompanied by anomalies, and it seems like no such thing has happened in Qing Province, right?"

"Yeah, it’s strange! Not to mention his mysterious King Spirit Technique, I just can’t comprehend his Spiritual Power!"

...

Listening to the crowd’s discussions, Xue Hua’s expression darkened.

He glared hatefully in the direction Ling Chen had left, before turning into a beam of light and departing.

...

In just a quarter of an hour, Steward Liu came to a halt.

They were now between two mountain peaks.

"This is Burning Flame Valley."

Steward Liu said.

Everyone looked down but saw no Spiritual Eye, their faces instantly filled with confusion.

Steward Liu explained with a smile, "Burning Flame Valley is an important place for our Burning Flame Sect, naturally it is protected by a Spirit Array."

As he spoke, he produced a token in his right hand.

Spiritual Power was infused into it.

"Whoosh!"

A beam of light shot out from the token, heading downwards.

The space below rippled like water, and then ten stone platforms appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Beneath the stone platforms, there were ten towering columns of water.

These were the so-called Spiritual Eyes.

The columns were made entirely out of Spiritual Energy.

"Go on in!"

Steward Liu said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Zhao Yu and the other eleven immediately rushed downwards.

"After your cultivation is complete, you can leave on your own. This Guardian Spirit Array won’t hinder anyone coming out from inside."

Steward Liu informed them.

"The Spiritual Energy here is so dense!"

As soon as they entered Burning Flame Valley, everyone felt an unbearably dense Spiritual Energy rushing towards them.

The group didn’t rush to climb onto the stone platforms to cultivate.

Instead, they landed on the ground and observed the ten Spiritual Eyes.

The sizes of the Spiritual Eyes varied.

The one in the center was the largest and had the most abundant Spiritual Energy.

The remaining nine Spiritual Eyes were less than half the size and their Spiritual Energy considerably thinner.

Moreover, the nine peripheral Spiritual Eyes encircled and protected the one in the middle.

There were eleven of them who entered Burning Flame Valley.

But there were only ten Spiritual Eyes.

This meant that one of them would not be able to use the Spiritual Eye for cultivation, and could only absorb the nature’s spiritual energy that was escaping into the surroundings.

Although it was also dense, compared to the Spiritual Energy of the Spiritual Eyes, it was completely not at the same level.

"This Spiritual Eye, I’m taking it!"

Zhao Yu pointed at the Spiritual Eye in the middle, his tone full of domineering force.

He was ranked first among the New Disciples.

Others had also witnessed his strength.

Knowing they were no match for him.

The other nine immediately nodded in agreement, showing their consent.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Ling Chen provocatively and asked, "Do you have any objections?"

Having seen Ling Chen’s tactics from before, however, he did not consider Ling Chen a match for himself.

Because his Cultivation was at the fourth layer of the Palace Mansion Realm!

An entire level higher than Xue Hua!

He could overpower Xue Hua effortlessly!

Should he use his true power, he would be capable of killing Xue Hua instantly!

He didn’t believe Ling Chen would dare to compete with him.

Ling Chen originally didn’t want to dispute with this person.

But now that this guy was provoking him like this, Ling Chen was certainly displeased.

Since that was the case, there was no need to leave this person any face!

"No objections!"

Ling Chen responded with a faint smile.

"Hmph!"

Zhao Yu saw Ling Chen seemingly yielding and immediately let out a cold hmpf, his disdain for Ling Chen growing even stronger.

However, just at that moment.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a brilliant Spiritual Power erupted from Ling Chen’s body.

"Traceless Snow Steps!"

Ling Chen instantly executed the inferior Body Technique King Spirit Technique, his figure dashing toward the stone platform above the central Spiritual Eye like lightning.

The stone platform had an Array set up, which was attracting the Spiritual Energy from the Spiritual Eye in such a manner.

"You dare, kid!"

The smile on Zhao Yu’s face froze as he shouted out loud.

Ling Chen verbally stated no objections, but with his actions, he was directly trying to seize the most abundant Spiritual Eye for Cultivation.

"Heh heh."

Ling Chen chuckled.

"Seeking death!"

Zhao Yu’s expression turned extremely cold, his eyes almost shooting out flames of rage!

"Swoosh!"

Zhao Yu immediately used an inferior Body Technique King Spirit Technique and charged towards Ling Chen.

At the same time, a Longsword appeared in his hand, into which Spiritual Power surged, and a Sword Qi slashed towards Ling Chen.

Trying to intercept Ling Chen.

"Petty trick!"

Ling Chen let out a slight smile, two Green Lotus Sword Qis bursting out, slashing towards Zhao Yu.

He hadn’t even used a King Spiritual Weapon.

After all, Green Lotus Sword Qi was a King Spirit Technique.

Even without the amplification of a King Spiritual Weapon, it was enough to counter Zhao Yu’s ordinary strike!

One Green Lotus Sword Qi blocked Zhao Yu’s Sword Qi.

The other streaked towards Zhao Yu to attack him.

"Bang!"

Zhao Yu, wielding a King Spiritual Weapon, cut down with a sword, shattering Ling Chen’s Sword Qi.

"My apologies, Young Master Zhao!"

Ling Chen smiled slightly.

Taking advantage of Zhao Yu intercepting his attack, his figure had already rushed into the stone platform.

"Ling Chen, you’re courting death!"

Zhao Yu roared, his eyes fixated on Ling Chen.

He hadn’t expected to be outmaneuvered by Ling Chen.

Ling Chen stood on the platform, looking at the nearly frenzied Zhao Yu with a hint of a smile on his lips.

At this moment, with his entry, the Guardian Spirit Array atop the stone platform was already activated.

Even in his anger, Zhao Yu could only accept defeat!

"Don’t get cocky, Ling Chen! Once you come out, I will let you know the consequences of offending me!"

Zhao Yu said in a chilling tone.

His voice was filled with a cold killing intent!

"Haha!"

Ling Chen glanced at Zhao Yu smugly, "I’ll be waiting for you. However, I’m going to start Cultivating first. It would be a shame to waste such a dense and infuriatingly rich Spiritual Energy!"

With that, he sat down cross-legged.
