This was simply Lin Chen talking to himself. If others knew he could absorb the energy of the Fire God Crystal at the seventh stage of Divine Sense, they would likely be so shocked they might bite their tongues. But it's only thanks to Lin Chen having Xiaolian, such an extraordinary thing, that he's able to accomplish this.
Moreover, his body is still within the Divine Sense realm, and his absorption of the Fire God Crystal has reached saturation. It seems only when he breaks through to the Divine Spirit realm can he refine the fire crystal again.
Lin Chen shook his head, casting aside these random thoughts, then took out a map he'd bought earlier from his storage ring.
This map covers all locations in the Eastern Region, and is extrely detailed.
Looking at the map, Lin Chen thought to himself: "My current strength has reached the peak of the seventh level of Divine Sense. Further cultivation won't get
closer to breaking through, so it's ti for
to go out and train!"
"I didn't know before that the Eastern Region was so vast. The Heavenly Sword Tower is rely in the eastern part of the Eastern Region, while Zhao Xiaohua's Ten Thousand Beasts Gate is in the west. Hmm, let's see, I'm more suited to battling demon beasts in the mountains."
Frowning and thinking for a short while, Lin Chen's eyes suddenly lit up:
"I've got it! Here! The Magic Beast Forest in the south of the Eastern Region! Many rcenaries are known to gather around the Magic Beast Forest! The forest occupies a large mountain range, much larger than the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range, where the demon beasts are strong. Additionally, it has many natural treasures, attracting many rcenaries to stay there long-term!"
Lin Chen frowned, contemplated, then nodded, saying:
"Alright! Let's go there! Be a rcenary, accept tasks when there are any, and if not, either train or venture into the Magic Beast Forest myself!"
Lin Chen's finger fell on a place nad Southern Plain County on the map, and he smiled faintly, put the map away, and walked out of the cave.
He glanced back at the direction of the Heavenly Sword Tower, then turned with a confident smile and leapt into the skies!
"Magic Beast Mountain Range! Here I co!"
The distance between the Magic Beast Mountain Range and the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range is not short, so Lin Chen didn't plan to fly all the way by himself, and he wasn't in a rush to get to the Magic Beast Mountain Range. So, after leaving the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range, Lin Chen arrived at a small town nad Qingshan Town to find a convoy traveling in the sa direction.
Having demonstrated his seventh-stage Divine Sense cultivation, he was allowed to join the convoy, and the symbolic clothing of Heavenly Sword Tower disciples was already put away by him.
Given Lin Chen's decent strength within the convoy, he was treated with one horse-drawn carriage per person. At this mont, he closed his eyes to rest; the bumpy ride seemingly had no effect on him.
According to the schedule, this convoy would need a whole seven days to reach the destination — Southern Plain County. Lin Chen intended to use this ti to settle himself. Previously, his cultivation surged quickly; he killed a series of people and then refined the Fire God Crystal, making his state sowhat unsettled.
So he thought to take this opportunity to consolidate his aura and ensure he would be in his best state when reaching the Magic Beast Mountain Range.
Suddenly, Lin Chen noticed that the speed of the carriage had slowed down.
Indeed, not long after, under Lin Chen's divine sense probe, the entire convoy had stopped.
"Alright, everyone rest. We're more than halfway to Southern Plain County. We'll take a break overnight and continue tomorrow morning!"
The speaker was a potbellied middle-aged man, exuding the shrewdness of a businessman.
This person was the leader of this convoy, a rchant shuttling between the north and east of the Eastern Region, very shrewd, yet his cultivation wasn't weak, reaching the sixth stage of Divine Sense, which was impressive for a rchant with little ti to train. However, Lin Chen could tell his aura was fake, boosted by pills and treasures.
It was already dark, and the convoy had completely stopped. Traveling in the mountains at night was highly dangerous. Fires were lit all night long, and guards were arranged to stay vigilant at all tis; otherwise, they might encounter demon beasts.
The convoy mbers skillfully set up tents and lit fires. The stronger escorts, like Lin Chen, even went nearby to hunt so demon beasts to roast over the fire.
Lin Chen also stepped out of his carriage but did not approach the crowd. Instead, he quietly ate his dry food in a corner.
In the center of the crowd was a pretty and charming girl, with many escorts surrounding her.
A man with a gentlemanly smile said to the girl:
"Commandery Princess Yanran, here, I've roasted this at for you!"
Saying this, he offered a piece of demon beast at roasted to perfection, and the girl accepted without refusal, nibbling at it with little bites, her mischievous eyes darting around.
The Commandery Princess Yanran's birthplace was actually everyone's destination. She was the daughter of the Commandery Prince of Southern Plain County, delayed in Qingshan Town on business. The convoy leader was a friend of the Commandery Prince, so she traveled back with them.
The man earlier was notably esteed among the escorts; they seed to follow his lead. His cultivation had reached the late stage of the ninth level of Divine Sense, making him the strongest on this trade route with hardly any danger.
However, that didn't include Lin Chen. If Lin Chen wanted, he'd easily subdue him, even kill him outright!
The escorts laughed, drank, and ate together, while Lin Chen, alone at the corner, stared into the dark forest, appearing sowhat solitary.
The young Commandery Princess suddenly noticed Lin Chen and said:
"Brother Bai Nan, that seventh-stage Divine Sense boy seems quite aloof. Why doesn't he co over and join us?"
Bai Nan looked at Lin Chen and then let out a mocking laugh, saying:
"Commandery Princess, they, as loose cultivators, are destined to have such diocre strength for life, incapable of breaking through the Divine Spirit realm, unlike us with power and background. Just like , I will definitely break through to the Divine Spirit realm within a year!"
Despite Bai Nan's obvious self-praise, the Commandery Princess didn't seem to care and instead flashed a cheeky smile, saying:
"Brother Bai Nan, why don't you invite him over! He seems so pitiful; let's give him a piece of roast at!"
