Almost three weeks later, Zhan Chen ushered in the Lin Family Martial Arts Tournament that he had been looking forward to. Since it was his first time to participate in this grand event, Zhan Chen set out early in the morning. After some inquiries and searches, he finally arrived.
The place where the competition was held was a huge ring-shaped mountain range. In fact, this place on Taihao Star
This kind of mountain range is rare, because ring-shaped mountains are formed by meteorites hitting the ground, and the atmosphere of Taihao Star is extremely thick, and most meteorites will burn out before they land on the ground. But on Taihao Star,
To create such a crater would require at least a meteorite the size of a 10,000-meter tall mountain range.
When he arrived there, Zhan Chen saw a tall stone arch standing in the center of the circular valley. In front of the stone arch, there were already more than a dozen elders of the Lin family maintaining order. At this time, there were not many people coming to compete, only a dozen or so.
That's all, Zhan Chen walked to the middle of them and waited quietly.
Not long after waiting, people came one after another from the direction of Tunyun City. In the end, as many as 4,000 people gathered here. Zhan Chen saw many familiar figures among them, including Lin Yue and Lin Meng.
Die, Tie Ruhua, Lin Weilong, Lin Yaoli and other senior brothers. To show courtesy, he greeted them one by one.
But he found that Lin Yue's attitude towards him was already very cold, and Zhan Chen didn't know what happened to him.
In addition, Lin Mengdie was still very hostile to him and was about to start a fight. Zhan Chen was only distressed about this. This woman had been pestering him endlessly since she lost to him, which was annoying.
dead.
It was not until noon that Lin Chongwu, the lord of Tunyun City, arrived late. He jumped on a boulder tens of meters high and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, the Lin Family Martial Arts Tournament, which is held every five hundred years, is about to begin.
At first, five hundred years seems to be a very long time, but it is just a small segment in the entire life course of us cultivators, and most people cannot make much improvement in such a short period of time."
"However, for some people who are talented and willing to work hard, five hundred years can make their strength develop by leaps and bounds, and the significance of the existence of our Lin Family Martial Arts Tournament is to enable these people to stand out and get adventures.
, hoping that they can go further.”
"I won't say anything unnecessary. Although most people have participated in our martial arts tournament more than once, I still want to repeat the rules to everyone here."
Then Lin Chongwu explained the rules again, which were very similar to what Zhan Chen had heard from Lin Xiaohan before.
After explaining the rules, Lin Chongwu did not forget to warn everyone: "Remember, you will be responsible for your life and death after entering the secret realm. Don't covet the treasures you shouldn't get, and don't try to resolve personal grudges in the secret realm. If we find out,
If someone wants to harm our compatriots, then we must deal with it according to the clan rules. If you are in danger, you can also activate the token issued to you last month and teleport out of the secret realm at any time. But in that case, your competition this time
The results of the conference will be reset to zero.”
"Finally, let me talk about the rewards of the competition. The first place can enter our Lin family arsenal to choose any treasure and be rewarded with 300,000 high-grade star stones; the second place will be rewarded with 100,000 high-grade star stones and two star weapons and one handle;
The third place will be rewarded with 50,000 high-grade star stones and ten tiger soul pills; the fourth to tenth place will be rewarded with 10,000 high-grade star stones."
Zhan Chen listened below and couldn't help but swallowed. The Lin family is really generous. There is such a big hemorrhage every five hundred years. The star stone reward alone is not a small amount, but the money may be a big deal for a person.
It's nothing to a big family. It's precisely because of the generosity of the Lin family that they can cultivate so many outstanding and powerful people, allowing the family to grow.
He listened to others discussing, and one person said: "Hey, guess who will win the first place in this martial arts competition?"
"Who else could it be? The strongest person in the Lin family below the Earth Star Realm is undoubtedly Lin Aoyuan. Yes, Lin Aoyuan is so perverted. He has mastered the secret of time. Our peers have no power to fight back in front of him, and he
He is the direct grandson of Lin Aotian, the eldest elder of our Lin family, and no one dares to compete with him."
"I think there's hope for another one," another said.
"Who are you talking about? Is it Nie Hong?" Everyone asked, but they were quite unanimous and they all guessed the same person.
"Yes, Nie Hong is the adopted son of another great elder, Lin Hongwen. I heard that he is extremely talented in cultivation. I heard that he has mastered ten secrets."
"The ten secrets combined are not as powerful as the secret of time!"
"Hey, you are wrong. I heard that Nie Hong lost the last martial arts competition with only one move. It was not easy for Lin Aoyuan to win. It's just that my strength is not good enough. I didn't even enter the competition site. I hope this time
If you can catch up, you should at least catch up to watch the battle between the two."
"Well, we'll see."
…
"Lin Aoyuan, Nie Hong." Zhan Chen murmured. If he wanted to be qualified to enter the Lin family's arsenal, he had to defeat the two of them. Lin Xiaohan was very confident in himself, but he felt a little unsure. With his own
Can the martial arts skills currently mastered be able to defeat the powerful Lin Aoyuan and Nie Hong?
At this moment, Lin Chongwu shouted to the audience: "Now, as the head of the Lin family, I announce that the gate to the secret realm is officially opened!"
As soon as the elders waiting in front of the stone arch gate heard Lin Chongwu's order, they immediately began to send huge star power to the stone arch gate. The originally inconspicuous stone arch gate underwent amazing changes after receiving the star power.
The rock layer began to fall off, and then a gorgeous arch made of metal was revealed. The arch was engraved with countless spiritual patterns, and at the same time, it began to bloom with a dazzling silver-white brilliance.
Then a huge whirlpool appeared in the center of the arch, which was the passage leading to the entrance to another world. For Zhan Chen, there were countless unknown mysteries behind this door.
"Okay, everyone can enter the secret realm. Remember that you must rush to the great abyss in the center of the secret realm within ten days. If you do not arrive within the specified date, you will not be able to participate in the competition."
As soon as Lin Chongwu finished speaking, the crowd began to move. Everyone moved towards the arched door and entered it.
Zhan Chen also followed the crowd into the portal. When he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scenery had changed drastically. He appeared in a lush forest.
Being used to seeing the Silver Gray Forest, Zhan Chen suddenly felt at home when he encountered a forest he was familiar with. He first walked around, explored the basic situation nearby, and got a lot of useful information.
First of all, the star power around here is very strong, equivalent to the level of Taihao Star, but the gravity is only equivalent to the level of Wanfa Star. He can even reach an altitude of tens of thousands of meters with just one jump, not to mention flying at full strength.
, it may take less than three days to visit the entire planet.
But at the same time, Zhan Chen also had a question in his mind. If he could do it, then everyone who comes here to participate in the competition can do it. So why are 90% of the people unable to reach the competition site?
"In short, there is no point in my daydreaming here. Let's take a look at the map first." Zhan Chen said to himself. He took out his identity token. This token is really a multi-purpose card. It contains both records.
He has his own identity information, has a teleportation function, and even has a map of the entire planet here.
Although he had read the map in detail before, it still took a lot of effort to know the approximate location of himself in the secret realm.
After looking at the map again, Zhan Chen thought: "There are more than 2,000 forests marked on this map, but the conditions of the forests are all the same, so it is difficult to use them as a reference. I need to find something with a reference topography.
For example, mountains, deserts, even the ocean or a lake."
So, he randomly found one and started walking. In order to find the target quickly, Zhan Chen flew high into the sky, thinking that the search would be faster. However, he didn't know how dangerous it was to expose himself in a wide space.
decision.
Immediately, Zhan Chen felt a powerful soul wave sweeping towards him from a distance, and then there was a heart-stopping roar from the distance. The whole earth began to shake, and a violent thunder blew from the sky.
The strong wind and even the clouds began to move rapidly. Zhan Chen felt an unprecedented danger approaching him.
"This is a star beast, and it is impossible for a one-star beast to have such a powerful power!" Zhan Chen immediately realized that the sound in front of him was probably a two-star beast. It is said that the weakest star beast is also an ordinary nine-star sight.
The strongest two-star beasts are three times as strong as those in the nine-star earth realm.
Zhan Chen couldn't help but become alert. If there really was a two-star beast, it would definitely not be an opponent he could handle now.
At this moment, a black shadow shot out from the forest and flew towards him. It was very fast. Only after Zhan Chen took a closer look did he see the true face of the person coming.
This star beast is different from the behemoths Zhan Chen has seen in the past. It is only four meters long and looks like a tiger, but it has a pair of wings, a long horn on its head, and the fur all over its body is golden yellow.
"This is the Star Winged Tiger!" Zhan Chen couldn't help shouting, then turned around and ran away. Because the Star Winged Tiger is a veritable two-star beast, its strength is comparable to that of a one-star earthly star realm powerhouse. Despite its petite size,
The attack power is much more terrifying than those giant beasts that are thousands of meters high. The reason why this Star Winged Tiger attacked him was because Zhan Chen broke into his territory.
"Thunder Ying Jue!" Zhan Chen immediately used his famous footwork and landed towards the dense forest below at the fastest speed, hoping that the dense forest could provide him with some protection.
"Roar!" the Star Winged Tiger roared, and chased Zhan Chen three steps at a time. Then he swung his claw out from the air, and a strong wind as if it was real material hit him.
"It's too fast, there's no way to avoid it!" Zhan Chen's pupils shrank, he immediately curled up his body, and immediately used the Vajra Divine Blessing to defend against the impact with all his strength.
