In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Evil God Ridge. This place, located deep within the Fallen God Mountain Range, was home to terrifying Star Beasts, most of which were at least level one hundred, reaching the Peak Grandmaster level. Even the talented members of the Exorcism Sword Sect would not venture out lightly without a protective talisman and the presence of a Four-Star Grandmaster elder.
Not long after their arrival, members of the Lin family came to greet them. The cultivation methods of the Exorcism Sword Sect were known for their sinister nature, so these individuals exuded a palpable aura of darkness.
Among this group, Su Chen spotted an old acquaintance. Su Chen was the young master of the Lin family, and at that moment, Lin Chongzhi's pale face immediately twisted with hatred upon seeing him. He recalled the day of the National Examination when he was on the verge of hunting a rare Azure Thunder Deer, only to have Su Chen interfere, resulting in both his National Examination ranking and his chances of success being dashed.
It was indeed unfortunate for Lin Chongzhi; after entering the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, he had kept a low profile and avoided trouble, only to encounter this unlucky fellow, Su Chen. In his eyes, he believed he was the true victim while blaming Su Chen for his misfortunes.
Now that they met again, it was only natural that he glared at Su Chen with hostility. Noticing Lin Chongzhi's menacing gaze, Su Chen awkwardly rubbed his nose. It wasn’t entirely his fault; after all, opportunities in the outside world were scarce and often taken by those with strength. Moreover, if Lin Chongzhi hadn’t acted first, he wouldn’t have faced elimination.
“Chongzhi, don’t be foolish!” At that moment, a middle-aged man beside Lin Chongzhi reprimanded him. This man was none other than Lin Zhen, the current head of the Lin family. Due to the peculiar nature of their family’s cultivation methods, every successor underwent a process that involved freezing tadpoles and then purifying themselves; thus, Lin Zhen's voice carried a somewhat soft tone.
Hearing his father speak up, Lin Chongzhi could only clench his fists tightly. It must be said that Lin Chongzhi's situation was truly pitiful; not only had he been robbed of his opportunity but now he faced scolding from an elder as well. At that moment, Su Chen couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sympathy for him.
He had also heard that Lin Chongzhi’s birth had been incredibly difficult for the Lin family. As the sole heir to their lineage and with their unique cultivation method, it took nine pregnancies filled with girls before Lin Chongzhi finally came into being on the tenth attempt. Thus, from a young age, he was treated as a treasure by the Lin family; anything he desired was readily granted to him.
However, misfortune struck again when an accident occurred when he was ten years old. This incident allowed him to begin cultivating the Lin family's techniques prematurely but ultimately severed their lineage with him. This contributed to his twisted psychological state today.
Su Chen secretly wondered whether he should ask him about the truth of this rumor another day. Before long, they arrived at the Evil Spirit Sword Manor. Lin Zhen was preparing to host a banquet for them when he was stopped by Lin Aoxue.
"This is serious; we should first check the barrier," she suggested.
"Alright," Lin Zhen nodded, but as he turned around, an enigmatic smile appeared on his face.
Soon, under Lin Zhen's lead, they reached the depths of Evil God Ridge. Before them lay a vast expanse of ancient city ruins, ravaged by wind and frost. This ruin had long been buried under yellow sand, and the interior of the ancient city was filled with Restrictions that made it difficult to enter.
"To think there would be such an ancient city within Evil God Ridge," Lin Aoxue exclaimed, her eyes widening in surprise.
"This ancient city was originally buried underground and has only recently emerged," Lin Zhen explained.
"You're not mistaken; this place is likely an ancient relic that the Evil Spirit Cult is targeting," Lin Aoxue analyzed.
Upon hearing her words, everyone present couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. Especially those from Stellar Academy, who were all captivated by the mention of an ancient relic.
With such a complex barrier, it must be sealing some kind of Rare Treasure inside. Who would have thought they would stumble upon such good fortune!
"Lin Shijie, how about we use the Void Mirror to break this barrier and explore inside? Whatever opportunities we find, you can choose first!" Wang Lin couldn't help but suggest.
The allure of the ancient relic was too great; aside from Xiao Long Nu, who seemed distracted, everyone else was drawn in by the prospects within the relic.
