Li Jue's Heavenly Brightness Control Technique completely blocked Lin Chen's attack without causing him any damage. This made Lin Chen lose face, completely forgetting that Li Jue was a Spirit Refining level expert who could defeat him with ease.
But at this moment, Li Jue felt a slight pang of fear. He looked at Lin Chen's bloodshot eyes and the flames swirling around his two pairs of wings. Especially the "king" character on his forehead, which shone as brightly as the sun, resembling that ancient divine beast that descended to the mortal realm.
Lin Chen waved his claws and said to Li Jue, "Come on, let me show you what the power of an ancient divine beast is."
"Ye Yao, may I borrow your spiritual energy?" In the blink of an eye, as he watched the continuous flow of spiritual energy from Ye Yao's body into Lin Chen, Lin Chen's aura suddenly began to rise infinitely.
"What kind of secret technique is this? I've only heard that beast tamers can improve together in battle, how can they also borrow power, and in a way that reverses the primary and secondary roles, with the spirit beast borrowing the master's energy?" This puzzled Li Jue greatly. Could this be some kind of secret from the Beast Realm?
Lin Chen, who was at the sixth level of the Void Breaking stage, broke through to the bottleneck of the ninth level peak in the blink of an eye, and his energy showed no signs of stopping.
"Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique, activate."
As Lin Chen's Daoist technique was activated, his size grew larger and larger.
"Host Fusion" is a technique that Lin Chen has never used before. It is not a technique he obtained from there, but one that he created himself.
Using his own essence and blood as a guide, and the essence and blood of countless divine beasts as supplements, he combined all his cultivation techniques into one. He poured all the energy of himself and his host, Ye Yao, into his right palm.
The right wing has evolved again, and is almost longer than the body.
"Let me show you my fusion technique, Lord City Lord." Lin Chen said, then slapped his palm forward.
A gust of fiery wind arose, scorching the earth to an unbearable heat, causing it to crack. A powerful current of air rushed towards Li Jue, who once again unleashed the Heavenly Brightness Control Technique. However, it was clear that this time he was serious and was about to use his full strength.
With a single palm strike, the orange protective shield shattered, and a mouthful of blood spurted from Li Jue's mouth, shocking the guards. They had never seen the city lord injured before.
However, Lin Chen's condition wasn't much better. Blood was flowing from his right paw, showing no signs of stopping. His right wing also suddenly shrank, and the energy in his body rapidly dissipated. In an instant, he seemed to have turned into an ordinary spirit beast.
"Ding, mission complete. Reward: a set of Celestial-level armor."
A bitter laugh escaped Lin Chen's lips. "Is that all?"
"Ding! You have successfully challenged someone of a higher level and injured Li Jue. Your strength has been recognized. The system rewards you with 10,000 Dao Spirit Points."
Upon seeing this, the guards immediately surrounded the two of them. You should know that the two of them probably couldn't even defeat an ordinary supreme being.
"Let them go. From now on, they will be guests of Sheng'an City." Li Jue said to the group with his eyes closed, as if he were healing his injuries.
"Lord City Lord, I don't know why. Those two were so audacious as to injure you. They should be executed by being cut into a thousand pieces," the head guard said.
“You don’t understand. This little tiger’s bloodline is not as simple as you think. At that moment, I could actually feel the breath of death. This is the suppression of bloodline.”
"Although I still know what kind of spirit beast it is, I can say with certainty that it must not be an enemy. Who knows if its family might be one of those legendary creatures?"
After hearing the city lord's explanation, everyone gasped. This grandson's bloodline was so powerful! No wonder he had such great talent and broke through to the Void Breaking Realm in no time.
"Send them to the city lord's mansion to recuperate and heal. Do not disturb them without my orders." After giving these instructions, Li Jue vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.
The next day, Lin Chen opened his blurry eyes and found himself lying alone in Ye Yao's arms, but the scene was not the familiar place.
"Lin Chen, where is this?" Ye Yao also woke up.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the interior of the City Lord's Mansion. It seems we've succeeded."
"You never listen to me again, you stinky Lin Chen! Didn't I tell you not to force yourself? And how could you possibly increase your strength so much in such a short time? I was stunned!" Ye Yao said coquettishly, seemingly still angry with Lin Chen.
"That? That's a secret I discovered by chance. I never intended to use it, but I just wanted to test its power."
"Is it the effect of the Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique?" It seemed that nothing could be hidden from Ye Yao.
"Yes, that's right, it's the Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique. This technique can be said to have been tailor-made for me, fusing with essence blood to enhance my strength. I thought to myself, isn't this describing me?" Lin Chen explained.
After a brief exchange, the two resumed their cultivation journey. Lin Chen felt as if he had reached a bottleneck. This battle had given him a lot of insights, so he needed to absorb them as soon as possible.
Lin Chen took out the Heavenly Spirit-level armor he obtained by completing a task in the system. Needless to say, he gave it to Ye Yao, since he couldn't wear it either, right?
Lin Chen remembered that he had received 20,000 Dao Spirit Points, and decided to use them for the lottery first, since the lottery was the most exciting thing.
"Enough with the nonsense, let's get started. System, please give me something good!"
"Ding! You have won five Heavenly Dao Fruits in one lottery draw."
"Ding! Second draw! Congratulations on winning six Heavenly Dao Fruits."
"Ding! You have won six Heavenly Dao Fruits after three draws."
...Several times in a row, it was all Heavenly Dao Fruits, which Lin Chen couldn't figure out.
"Brother, give it your all! I'll make you smoke again, you believe me?"
"Ding! Congratulations on winning the Heavenly Spirit-level cultivation technique [Soul Extinction Technique] after six draws!"
"Ding! Seven draws! Congratulations on obtaining the Heavenly Spirit level cultivation technique, [Chaotic Rain Sword Technique]!"
Lin Chen acquired three more Daoist manuals. He remembered that the lottery system now had a guaranteed reward, so he was sure to get a Heavenly Spirit level treasure.
"It all comes down to this."
"Ding. After ten draws, the guaranteed reward mechanism of the Godly Lottery Pool has been triggered. Congratulations on obtaining the Saint-level movement technique [Thunder Flash]. After activation, you will enter a state of ethereal emptiness for thirty seconds, making you untargetable by any cultivation techniques or Daoist arts."
Lin Chen finally smiled. He was overjoyed to finally have something decent, especially since these cultivation techniques and Daoist manuals seemed to be tailor-made for Ye Yao.
Let's continue then, there are still 10,000 points left.
Another Void-Breaking Pill and two Heavenly Spirit-level Daoist techniques—these are indeed quite good, but that's not what Lin Chen wants. He wants to take a shortcut to increase his strength.
Only spirit crystals from spirit beasts were available, because they contained more energy and could be directly absorbed by Lin Chen.
