Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3711 - 3730: Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella, Acquired!
Xi Dongcheng looked at the smile on Wu Haizhi’s face, and his mood was inexplicably complicated.
From the perspective of my own interests, I hope Wu Haizhi can agree, but deep down, I hope Wu Haizhi will refuse.
If I made the request and Wu Haizhi directly refused, then it wouldn’t be my fault, would it?
It’s not that I didn’t try, it’s that the Sect Leader didn’t allow it!
Just as Xi Dongcheng was feeling conflicted, Wu Haizhi readily agreed, "You can borrow it for observation, but you can only study it in the Sect Hall, you can’t take it with you."
He agreed!
Xi Dongcheng felt a thud in his heart, and his mood became even more complex.
It seems I’m destined to be a traitor.
Xi Dongcheng bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Sect Leader, I will study diligently and hope to gain something."
Wu Haizhi chuckled, "Good, how much time do you need to study it?"
Xi Dongcheng replied, "The Sect Leader’s most outstanding work must be extraordinary, with much to learn from. The more time, the better, but I leave it to the Sect Leader’s discretion."
Wu Haizhi thought for a moment, "I’ll give you three months, during which you can focus on closed door cultivation, learn as much as you can."
"Alright!"
Wu Haizhi waved his sleeve, "Follow me."
Xi Dongcheng followed behind Wu Haizhi into the depths of the Refining Artifact Peak’s main hall, where there were many Artifact Refining Rooms, connected to the earth veins’ depths to provide Earth Fire for all artifact refiners to use.
Wu Haizhi opened an Artifact Refining Room, entered, and with a wave of his hand, a dazzling black umbrella appeared in front of him.
Wu Haizhi chuckled, "Use your divine sense to observe, but don’t handle it directly. If something goes wrong, it’ll be troublesome."
Xi Dongcheng nodded, "Yes, I will be careful not to cause any damage."
Wu Haizhi acknowledged, and the Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella flew towards Xi Dongcheng, finally landing in his hands.
Wu Haizhi cautioned again, "You should study it in this Meditation Room, and don’t leave, nor take it outside."
Xi Dongcheng agreed again, and only then did Wu Haizhi wave his hand, "Study well, I’m leaving."
Xi Dongcheng closed the room door, feeling slightly excited.
Though he was doing something wrong, it’s finally about to succeed.
I’m about to be free.
Xi Dongcheng feared Wu Haizhi still monitored this place, so he didn’t rush. He sat in the room, opened the Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella, and began to study it.
This Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella was indeed Wu Haizhi’s masterpiece, of very high quality. After a simple look, Xi Dongcheng couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
Xi Dongcheng stayed in the Artifact Refining Room for several days, confirming that Wu Haizhi wasn’t watching him, then took out the Linglong Tower, contacting Lin Chen by the method he taught.
The Linglong Tower flashed with golden light, and Lin Chen’s figure appeared in the Artifact Refining Room.
Lin Chen wore a magic treasure mask that concealed his face, his gaze landing on the Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella on the table, and his voice was filled with joy.
"Did you get it?"
Xi Dongcheng looked tense, "The Sect Leader allowed me to study it for three months, but he said I can’t leave the Artifact Refining Room or take it out. How do we get out?"
Lin Chen laughed, "Leave that to me, your task is already complete."
The Linglong Tower gleamed brightly, taking Xi Dongcheng into the tower, and Lin Chen put away the Linglong Tower, then with a wave of his hand, also stored the Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella in his Spatial Ring.
The next second, Lin Chen’s figure vanished from the room.
Just as Lin Chen disappeared, a golden light shot in from outside, arriving at the Artifact Refining Room in an instant.
The golden light landed and revealed his figure; it was the Refining Artifact Peak’s Sect Leader, Wu Haizhi.
Wu Haizhi’s expression was cold and stern, his eyes sharp. Before his body reached, his divine sense already surged like waves, sweeping over the Artifact Refining Room where Xi Dongcheng had been. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
The room was empty!
The Top-grade Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella was also gone!
Wu Haizhi couldn’t wait to open the door, he directly charged over, breaking the door, and rushed into the room.
A few seconds later, Wu Haizhi’s face turned livid as he stormed out of the Refining Artifact Peak, seeming maddened, floating in mid-air, his divine sense extending in all directions.
"Xi Dongcheng!"
...
Inside the Linglong Tower, Xi Dongcheng naturally couldn’t hear Wu Haizhi’s roaring.
He was worried about how Lin Chen would escape when Lin Chen already appeared in front of him with a smile.
"Don’t worry, we’ve already left the West King Palace, no matter how crazed Wu Haizhi becomes, he can’t find us now."
Xi Dongcheng asked in surprise, "Already left? So fast?"
Lin Chen laughed, "Yes, not only have we left the West King Palace, but we’re now in the Sixth District."
Xi Dongcheng’s eyes widened suddenly; just moments ago they were in the Twelfth District, and now they were already in the Sixth District.
Being a Major Sect Disciple, Xi Dongcheng was naturally knowledgeable, and instantly guessed the reason.
"You possess the Star Chart Spirit, you can perform Star Sky Jump?"
Lin Chen nodded, "Indeed, although your sect has the Mountain Protection Array, this Array Formation can’t hinder a Star Sky Jump."
Xi Dongcheng’s gaze was complicated; Lin Chen, an individual from a Different Race, actually possessed the Star Chart Spirit!
How did he manage that?
Xi Dongcheng hadn’t had much interaction with Lin Chen before, except for that one battle, and then he was imprisoned. Recalling Lin Chen’s endless use of consumable magic treasures during their previous battle, he couldn’t help but ask, "During that time in the Holy Domain, you repeatedly used the Toad Treasure infused with Saint’s Power; was there a Saint in the tower then?"
"Indeed."
Lin Chen replied with a smile, "At that time, my tower had two Saints, one supporting the Magic Treasure Pagoda, and the other infusing treasures with all their might to counter you all..."
There really were Saints!
Xi Dongcheng had always wanted to ask this question, and finally got the answer today.
"Why would two Saints be willing to work for you, when you were only Sub-Saint strength at the time, and moreover, you were of a different race..."
Lin Chen laughed, "Because their lives are in my hands."
Xi Dongcheng looked bewildered.
The more he asked, the more confused he became.
How could a Sub-Saint control the lives of two Saints?
How exactly did he achieve that?
Not only did he have two Saints helping, but also the Great Divine Power of Star Sky Jump, and such a powerful magic treasure...
How is it, that as a core disciple of the Holy Land, he ended up so inferior compared to Lin Chen?
Lin Chen laughed, "Alright, all those things are in the past. Just listen to them, you’re not going back to the West King Palace, so live well here in the days to come."
Lin Chen brought Xi Dongcheng to the Wolong Sect and handed him over to Ning Hesheng, arranging a position for Xi Dongcheng within the sect.
Now that Lin Chen’s strength has approached the Saint Peak, with Charming Erosion at his side, Lin Chen already possesses enough power for self-preservation; even if the matters of the Holy Domain are exposed, it isn’t much of a problem.
The only thing that can’t be exposed is the existence of the Creation God.
As long as he doesn’t face a Heaven Deity directly, Lin Chen is fearless.
