After listening to their description, Lin Chen also realized the seriousness of the matter. In just a few days, the Asura Domain had become so chaotic.
Li Jue explained, "Although the Asura Domain is an unclaimed land, it is divided into the North and South Domains. North of the Cold Ice Ravine and Dark Ice City, the Fallen Canyon serves as the dividing line."
Since ancient times, they have lived in peace. However, since the establishment of the Xuanming Sect and Tiansha Sect in the Northern Region, they have begun to annex other forces on a large scale. In just two or three years, they have become the hidden local tyrants of the Northern Region. This turmoil was instigated by them, and their purpose is self-evident: to unify the Shura Domain.
At this moment, Liu Yue interjected, "The Xuanming Sect's techniques are dark and bloodthirsty. If they were allowed to dominate the Asura Domain, there would be no peace. The Tian Sha Sect also uses yin and soft techniques, which are very strange."
Lin Chen and Ye Yao knew they also bore a significant responsibility and could neither escape it nor avoid it.
Ye Yao suddenly seemed to remember something, "The Heavenly Fiend Sect? I remember we met someone before who claimed to be the young sect master of the Heavenly Fiend Sect."
"If I remember correctly, his name is Du Yu. I could tell he wasn't a good guy just by looking at him in the Shura Ghost Market," Lin Chen replied thoughtfully.
"We shouldn't delay; after a short rest, we'll be setting off." Li Jue's expression was very serious.
"I have a favor to ask of you all," Lin Chen said, bowing to the group.
"Brother Lin, please speak frankly."
"This battle is no small matter; strength is the most important factor. I'm currently stuck at the bottleneck of the Supreme Saint realm, lacking a bit of opportunity and spiritual power. I was wondering if you could lend me your treasured high-grade crystal cores to help me break through to the Spirit Tempering realm. This would greatly increase our chances of victory."
“No problem, I’ll go first.” Liu Yue was the first to agree.
Two Saint-level [Spirit Pattern Leopard] crystal cores, three Saint-level [Cold Wind Owl] crystal cores…
“I have one too.” Li Feng took out a completely green object from the illusory space. It was a Spirit-Refined Level [Green Heavenly Serpent] Crystal Core.
...
Thank you everyone. Lin Chen, holding the collected crystal cores, disappeared into the crowd with Ye Yao. Of course, they were heading to the backyard to break through. Bringing Ye Yao along was to protect him, since breaking through a major realm required attracting heavenly lightning…
The next day, as they set off, everyone looked at Lin Chen again and felt that he was probably the strongest fighter in the Southern Region.
After crossing the Frozen Gorge, the army arrived at Dark Ice City to rest. During this time, Lin Chen found the group of spirit beasts that had previously attacked him and naturally "persuaded" them to join his ranks.
Currently, their overall strength is roughly equal, with most at the Void Breaking Realm and many at the Saintly Realm. There are very few at the Spirit Tempering Realm.
Lin Chen heard that the two sect leaders of Tian Sha and Xuan Ming were only at the Spirit Refining level, so they still had the strength to fight.
Fallen Canyon is separated by two massive mountain ranges, with an incredibly wide space in between. It wouldn't be surprising if it were a canyon plain.
When Lin Chen and his group arrived, they saw the dust swirling in the air and heard a huge roar in the distance, which told them they were not far away.
This is a vital passage between the northern and southern regions, and many conquests have passed through here. Li Jue and his men were not ones to sit idly by and wait for their doom, so they planned to strike decisively in this canyon, eliminating any future threat.
A dark shadow swept across the sky—a flying spirit beast? That's quite a grand gesture. Lin Chen thought the Northern Region was quite wealthy.
Those above naturally saw them, turned around, and sped down.
"Isn't this Li Jue, the Lord of Liuyue City? I haven't even come looking for you yet, and you've already delivered yourselves to my doorstep?" Du Tian, the Lord of Tian Sha Sect, was completely wrapped in a black Daoist robe, with only his eyes showing. Beside him was Du Yu, who was still dressed in white. The father and son looked like the Black and White Impermanence, Lin Chen thought to himself.
Du Yu remained unchanged, still staring intently at Ye Yao beside Lin Chen, seemingly whispering something to the person next to her.
Lin Chen was furious. This bastard still had his eye on Ye Yao. He'd beat him to a pulp.
Beside Du Tian was an old man holding a whisk, who, as expected, was Leng Lie, the Xuanming Sect Master. He had a white beard, wore a blue Taoist robe, and carried a whisk. If they were on the street, Lin Chen would never have guessed that he was practicing a dark and evil technique.
Leng Lie said to Du Tian, "Brother Du, the opportunity is right in front of us. As long as we take down these experts, we can sweep across the Southern Region."
"Enough with the nonsense, let's start killing. In the Southern Region, kill without mercy," Du Tian said to the group of men in black behind him.
"Keep that guy with the white and red spiky hair for me." Du Yu stared at Lin Chen with a cold expression.
That just so happens, Lin Chen was also thinking about how to get rid of him.
A major battle is imminent.
Spiritual energy was being released everywhere, with purple and orange Dao energy colliding.
Li Jue faced off against Xuan Ming Leng Lie... Lin Chen naturally clashed with Du Yu.
Du Yu only had nine purple spiritual waves on his body. In Lin Chen's eyes, he was already a dead man. A Ninth-Rank Saint, huh? I'm only at the Spirit Tempering level. I wonder how many moves you can withstand.
"Retrieve Attributes"
"Attribute retrieval successful".

[Innate Bloodline: Bloodthirsty Dawn]
Overall rating: None. Be careful not to let your own essence and blood be drained.
Lin Chen was confident. He activated the Heavenly Evolution Dao Technique and directly used the Spirit Void Ghost Shadow technique to clash with the opponent. Meanwhile, Du Yu unleashed his Dark Shadow Killing Technique, which was indeed of the dark attribute.
Neither of them were weapon cultivators, so hand-to-hand combat was the best way to fight. When their fists met, the space was actually torn apart. Lin Chen immediately drew his other fist into a palm and struck Du Yu's chest, manipulating orange light in his hand.
Du Yu was shocked. He hadn't expected that this guy would have broken through to the Spirit Tempering Realm after so long.
After dodging, Du Yu rolled to the side and escaped the close range.
[Shadow Slash] After dodging the close combat, Du Yu launched a black blade of light at Lin Chen. Lin Chen's [Blazing Phoenix] Fireball Integration Technique was also fully mastered. Without any reaction, he threw out a beam of fire to meet the Shadow Slash.
The fire beam broke through the Shadow Slash's attack and set Du Yu ablaze.
With a single strike, Lin Chen gave Du Yu no time to think. He dodged behind Du Yu and unleashed a Sunfire Annihilation attack.
With a deafening roar, the Sunfire erupted in a terrifying explosion, the epicenter of which was directly behind Du Yu. He had no chance to react, as Lin Chen's attacks were unpredictable and swift.
The young sect leader of the Heavenly Fiend Sect was already doomed after just two moves. Arrogance will inevitably come at a price.
