Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 548 The True Goal of the Eight Desolations Sect
Blood Moon Sect!

Lin Chen frowned slightly upon hearing the name of the faction given by the sect leader.

Back in the Canglan Secret Realm, Yue Shan of the Blood Moon Sect targeted the disciples of their Canglan Sect. In the end, their conspiracy was foiled, and the elder of the Blood Moon Sect was killed by the Supreme Elder.

Afterwards, the sect leader, together with other sects, demanded an explanation from the Blood Moon Sect. The Blood Moon Sect compensated each sect, and the matter was considered closed.

Unexpectedly, the Blood Moon Sect did not stop there. This time, they sent over a thousand innate martial artists, which clearly shows their attitude.

Originally, it could be said that the Eight Desolations Sect paid a certain price to persuade the Blood Moon Sect to take action, but with the arrival of these thousand innate martial artists, it means that the Blood Moon Sect has also joined this sect war.

The Eight Desolations Sect and the Blood Moon Sect joined forces, along with the Yama Palace.

Our sect is facing two super sects and one sub-super sect at the same time, no wonder we suffered a defeat on the battlefield.

Lin Chen understood why the sect had chosen to retreat. If they hadn't, the number of Innate Martial Artists killed or wounded on both sides would have only increased, and the Blood Moon Sect would have inevitably sent even more Innate Martial Artists to join the fight.

As a super sect in the Blood Domain, the Blood Moon Sect has more than just a thousand innate martial artists under its command.

Although the Blood Domain is not as large as the Azure Domain and the Eight Desolate Domain, it still has at least five thousand innate martial artists.

"Sect Master, why is the Blood Moon Sect involved?"

Lin Chen was puzzled. The Blood Domain and the Azure Domain were separated by two domains. Helping the Eight Desolate Sect attack their Azure Domain didn't seem to be of much benefit to the Blood Moon Sect.

The Blood Moon Sect has no chance of getting the territory.

If you can't acquire territory, you'll lose money no matter what your purpose is.

The two super sects that started the battle did so for two reasons: firstly, they were sworn enemies, and secondly, they were fighting for territory.

Once you occupy the territory, you'll have a continuous supply of resources. Even if you deplete them all at the time, they'll recover in a few decades.

Lin Chen found it somewhat difficult to understand why the Canglan Sect and the Blood Moon Sect had no enmity or territorial interests.

"I do not know either."

Ji Cangtian shook his head. He had asked his uncle why the Blood Moon Sect would get involved, but his uncle only replied, "The Blood Moon Sect doesn't have any grudges with the Canglan Sect. It's just a coincidence. If the other two sects in the Yan Dynasty were to start a war right now, the Blood Moon Sect would also take the opportunity to join in."

As for why the Blood Moon Sect would participate in battles between other sects, the martial uncle did not provide a clear answer.

Hearing that even the sect leader didn't know why the Blood Moon Sect had joined, Lin Chen fell into deep thought, while Ji Cangtian's ears twitched, and then he said, "Lin Chen, come with me to see my martial uncle."

……

……

In the forbidden area of ​​the Canglan Sect, Lin Chen met the Supreme Elder Ye Feiran again.

Compared to back then, Lin Chen noticed that the Supreme Elder's face had aged considerably, and there was a hint of weariness in his eyes.

It's not normal to see fatigue on the face of a powerful expert at the Myriad Manifestations Realm.

"This disciple greets the Supreme Elder."

Ye Feiran scrutinized Lin Chen. As a powerful expert in the Myriad Manifestations Realm, he could see many differences in Lin Chen, and his old eyes shone brightly at this moment.

"Your soul has reached the sixth level of the Innate Realm?"

"Hmm." Lin Chen nodded: "Last time, disciple..."

"You don't need to tell me the details."

Ye Feiran raised his hand to stop Lin Chen from continuing: "This is your own opportunity. You just need to tell me the result."

"What level has the physical body reached?"

"If he can withstand a blow from a fifth-level Innate Realm expert, and if he uses his cultivation technique, an ordinary fifth-level Innate Realm expert will not be able to break through his defenses."

Lin Chen spoke with unwavering confidence. In his battle with Xi Zeliang, Xi Zeliang had used the Eight Desolations Sect's strongest Creation Halberd, yet Xi Zeliang had only managed to inflict minor injuries on him. At that time, Lin Chen hadn't activated the Immortal Technique and was relying solely on his physical strength to withstand the attack. If he had used the Immortal Technique, Xi Zeliang wouldn't have been able to harm him at all. "Good!"

Ye Feiran had a smile on his face; this was the best news he had heard in two years.

"I suppose your progress is related to the destiny you obtained from Wudao Mountain."

Ye Feiran didn't intend to delve into the details of Lin Chen's opportunities, but he could offer Lin Chen some guidance on his destiny.

"After descending from Martial Arts Mountain, the disciple obtained the destiny of Divine Illumination Without End."

"Divine Illumination Without Bounds?" Ye Feiran pondered, "Is this destiny related to the soul?"

Ye Feiran originally thought that Lin Chen's destiny should be related to his physical body, since Lin Chen's physical body was already far superior to that of ordinary martial artists. As for his soul, Lin Chen originally had an unusual soul, but now that he was at the peak of the fourth realm of the Innate Realm, it was acceptable for his soul to cross over to the sixth realm of the Innate Realm.

"Yes, according to my deduction, this disciple's destiny allows the soul to grow infinitely regardless of one's own cultivation level."

"What did you say?"

As a powerful expert in the Myriad Manifestations Realm, Ye Feiran had witnessed many ups and downs in the Yan Dynasty and rarely lost his composure in the face of even the biggest events. However, at this moment, Ye Feiran was also taken aback by Lin Chen's destiny.

"This was just a test by the disciple. At that time, the disciple happened to have an opportunity to absorb a lot of spiritual objects. At that time, the disciple was only at the second level of the Innate Realm, but the spiritual object had already reached the sixth level of the Innate Realm, which is why this result was obtained."

Lin Chen didn't understand why the Supreme Elder's expression had become so agitated. Even though his destiny was very powerful, it was extremely difficult to improve his soul at his current level.

There are not enough treasures to enhance one's spiritual power for one to absorb.

"Lin Chen, you wait here."

Ye Feiran left in a hurry, leaving Lin Chen speechless. This was the first time he had ever seen the Supreme Elder so out of control.

This wait lasted for a quarter of an hour.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Chen saw the Supreme Elder return, accompanied by another old man.

"Lin Chen, take this fruit."

A seven-colored fruit appeared in Ye Feiran's hand. Strangely, the fruit's light wafted like a fragrance. The light drifted to Lin Chen's side, and upon smelling it, Lin Chen's soul felt a sense of hunger.

"Yes."

Lin Chen took the fruit offered by the elder and took a bite. He knew in his heart that this fruit should be a treasure that enhances one's spiritual power.

The fruit was sweet, and after swallowing it, it felt like eating a ginseng fruit. Lin Chen felt like he was floating on air, and this comfortable feeling came from the depths of his soul.

Meanwhile, in his dantian, the nebula composed of divine soul stars was also rotating faster than before.

After Lin Chen consumed the fruit, Ye Feiran and another old man stared intently at him. After a short while, they exchanged a glance and saw the answer in each other's eyes.

Lin Chen's judgment on his destiny was correct.

The Divine Illumination Without Boundaries destiny can indeed infinitely increase one's spiritual power.

Otherwise, Lin Chen would definitely not have been able to withstand the spiritual energy brought by this fruit, and he wouldn't be in this comfortable state now.

Even after confirming Lin Chen's destiny, neither of them smiled; instead, their faces showed sadness.

"Lin Chen, do you know why the Eight Desolations Sect chose to go to war with my sect?"

Ye Feiran looked at Lin Chen, who shook his head but showed a listening expression. He knew that the Supreme Elder was about to tell him the secrets of this battle.

"Because our senior brother is in seclusion and is breaking through, if he succeeds, the Eight Desolations Sect will be suppressed by our Canglan Sect for hundreds of years. The Eight Desolations Sect wants to use this battle to stop our senior brother's breakthrough."

Senior brother?
Lin Chen was taken aback, but then he realized that the senior brother mentioned by the Supreme Elder must be the First Supreme Elder of the sect.
