Chapter 141
"Reject me?"
"Why would you reject me?"
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, roughly inferring the reason.
The evolvers he had selected were all extremely famous, with deep backgrounds or extraordinary talents, standing out in a whole star domain.
Such evolvers were already equivalent to 'celebrity' evolvers.
Who knew how many people were paying attention to them.
If every challenge from any evolver were to be accepted casually, then there would be no point in cultivation; one might as well just challenge endlessly from beginning to end.
Moreover.
Casually accepting challenges from unfamiliar evolvers.
Winning would be taken for granted.
But if one were to lose, it would be very embarrassing.
So.
Unless they were of the same rank and status as evolvers.
Otherwise, those 'celebrity' evolvers would not easily accept challenges.
"Since that's the case."
Lin Yuan's thoughts surged, "Then I'll apply for a challenge using my true identity."Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m
The so-called true identity naturally wasn't 'Lin Yuan'.
But rather, the identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage.
In terms of attention, the mysterious Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage.
Presumably, no evolver would not be curious.
And the status of the Thirteenth Peak Master was high enough; there probably wouldn't be many evolvers who would refuse a challenge initiated by the Thirteenth Peak Master.
Even if they were to lose, there would be reasons for it; after all, it was the Thirteenth Peak Master, wouldn't it be normal for me to lose?
If one could win, it would be defeating the Thirteenth Peak Master.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan immediately switched identities.
Virtual world of the Red Kun Lineage.
The Thirteenth Main Peak.
Lin Yuan's figure appeared in the main hall of the peak.
Since he had not yet reached the Sixth Rank, Lin Yuan had not recruited disciples or servants to the main peak, so the main hall appeared empty.
"As long as the identity of 'Lin Yuan' is not exposed, making some actions in the identity of the Thirteenth Peak Master will not have any impact."
Lin Yuan pondered repeatedly, then began to enter the arena area and choose opponents he desired to challenge.
Arena area.
A certain arena.
A black-skinned man appeared.
"I never expected that the illustrious Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage would choose to challenge me?"
This black-skinned man was somewhat flattered.
He looked at the figure appearing in the distance and slightly respectfully said.
As an existence that had reached ninety percent of soul transformation, about to step into the Sixth Rank.
The black-skinned man had long stopped accepting any challenges. His current most important task was to push the compatibility of his soul to perfection.
And then calmly step into the Sixth Rank.
The black-skinned man had originally done the same.
Until
Receiving the challenge application from the Thirteenth Peak Master of the Red Kun Lineage.
My goodness.
This was the Thirteenth Peak Master, a high-ranking figure of a star domain.
Even if the black-skinned man stepped into the Sixth Rank, his status was far inferior to that of the Thirteenth Peak Master.
So.
After receiving the challenge application.
The black-skinned man chose to agree without hesitation.
After all, it was just a challenge; it wouldn't take much time.
Being able to witness the legendary Thirteenth Peak Master, regardless of winning or losing, was worth it.
"Let's begin."
Lin Yuan looked towards the black-skinned man.
"Alright."
The black-skinned man said.
And then his figure disappeared from the spot.
"Thirteenth Peak Master, the evolutionary path I cultivate is called the Shadow Evolution Path, which can conceal in any"
Before the black-skinned man could finish speaking.
Lin Yuan took a step and arrived under a tree shade, raised his hand and grasped.
Only to see an almost invisible shadow being caught.
Immediately, this hidden figure quickly solidified, transforming into the black-skinned man.
"How... how is this possible?"
In a box at the arena, many members of the Red Kun Lineage gathered, admiring the Thirteenth Lord's various techniques.
"So this is the Thirteenth Lord?"
Fang Qing was among them, looking down at the ongoing battle.
At this moment, the simulated battleground resembled a desolate continent. But as the Thirteenth Lord and his opponent continued to fight, the continent was torn apart, with plates pierced through, and magma erupted, creating a scene reminiscent of doomsday.
"He's too strong."
Fang Qing felt a tremor in his heart.
If such battles were to occur on a living planet, it would likely have been reduced to a dead star by now, devoid of any living beings.
"We evolvers should be like the lord, capable of destroying heaven and earth with a wave of our hand."
Not far away, a three-eyed man sat, his fist clenched.
"Rather than being like some people, talking about loyalty and helping friends, wasting time and resources."
The three-eyed man glanced at Fang Qing.
Not long ago, Fang Qing had called upon friends to help Canglan Star through a difficult time, which made the three-eyed man feel somewhat uncomfortable.
In his view, everything had its own destiny, and intervening in such a manner to help was undoubtedly altering that destiny.
Fang Qing remained silent upon hearing this.
In terms of status, the three-eyed man had surpassed Fang Qing in the Seven Star Cave Trial and had joined the Red Kun Lineage. In less than a hundred years, he would undoubtedly become a core disciple.
Fang Qing couldn't afford to offend someone of this stature.
In another box, twelve figures lounged around leisurely.
They were the twelve peak lords of the Red Kun Lineage.
With their status, they rarely watched arena matches below the sixth rank.
They were even too lazy to watch matches involving sixth-rank evolvers. Among the twelve peak lords of the Red Kun Lineage, aside from the first three who had surpassed the sixth rank, the remaining nine were all pinnacle-level among the sixth rank.
But they were naturally willing to come to Lin Yuan's challenge arena.
"Our junior brother..."
The second senior brother sighed and carefully scrutinized Lin Yuan. "He should have already begun soul metamorphosis. It's only been a few years, and he's reached this level of cultivation?"
The other senior brothers expressed similar sentiments.
Not long ago, they had joked that Lin Yuan would likely reach the sixth rank within several decades.
But now? How much time had passed? Lin Yuan had already reached the pinnacle of the fifth rank and was even beginning soul transformation?
Although it was true that some evolvers took hundreds or even thousands of years to complete soul transformation, those were evolvers without backgrounds, who had not received guidance from strong individuals before reaching the fifth rank and had chosen a less compatible evolutionary path for themselves, resulting in a longer process of soul transformation.
Evolver from the Red Kun Lineage would have their masters help choose their evolutionary paths before reaching the fifth rank.
With such compatible evolutionary paths, soul transformation naturally progressed quickly, completing in just a few years or decades.
In the eyes of the twelve senior brothers, Lin Yuan was a disciple of the Red Kun Star Lord. Now that he was undergoing soul transformation, he must have already been approved by the Star Lord. It was likely that in three or four years, he would complete his soul metamorphosis.
And then become a sixth-rank evolver.
How could this not be a cause for jealousy for such a genius under a hundred years old?
The twelfth senior brother sighed.
"Let's prepare over the next few years. When our junior brother reaches the sixth rank, he will definitely come to the main star. We should be ready to welcome him then."
One of the senior brothers suggested.
"Naturally."
The twelfth senior brother nodded.
He glanced at the arena below once again.
"That little guy who was only at the fourth rank before has grown to this height in the blink of an eye?" The twelfth senior brother's expression changed suddenly.
He remembered hesitating during the Seven Star Cave Trial about whether to take Lin Yuan as his disciple.
In the crimson palace, the Red Kun Star Lord and a man in white robes were playing chess.
"Red Kun, you've taken in quite the good disciple," the man in white robes said, finishing his move and sighing.
"Hehe."
The Red Kun Star Lord smiled but didn't say much.
"My new disciple suffered quite a loss at the hands of your good disciple," the man in white robes said, placing another piece on the board.
"Oh?"
The Red Kun Star Lord's interest was piqued.
Immediately, his vast consciousness began to 'search.'
Soon, he discovered Lin Yuan's recent challenges in the arena.
"My disciple, although talented, is having trouble defeating your disciple," the Red Kun Star Lord said, feeling puzzled.
He remembered that the man in white robes's disciple had already reached the fifth rank a hundred years ago and was likely only a hair's breadth away from the sixth rank now, with a soul compatibility rate of around ninety percent.
"Still pretending?"
The man in white robes glanced at the Red Kun Star Lord.
"Hmm."
The Red Kun Star Lord remained composed outwardly but felt a sense of doubt rising within him.
Then, he directed a thread of consciousness to carefully observe the scenes of Lin Yuan's arena challenges.
"This..."
The Red Kun Star Lord's face changed slightly, a look of surprise crossing his features.
