The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3387 The Crack Opens, People Are Terrified
"So, what exactly does this quota refer to?"

Lin Chen was already thinking about how to deal with Immortal Lord Ranhai, since saving Gu Yue would expose his possession of the Linglong Pagoda and make an enemy of Immortal Lord Ranhai.

In that case, the best outcome would be to kill him before he becomes a saint. If we can figure out what the Immortal Emperor gave him, seize his opportunity, and break through to sainthood ourselves, then we'll be completely secure.

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled bitterly: "Since it wasn't for me, how would I know? But my master mentioned it briefly. It should be that when my master entered it, he discovered more than one Great Dao opportunity, but one person can only obtain one Great Dao opportunity, so my master controlled the Great Dao opportunity in a certain place through some means."

"Now, all that is needed for Immortal Lord Ranhai is to use the methods given by his master to successfully enter this star sea, find the great opportunity left behind by his master, obtain it, and then he can probably become a saint smoothly."

Lin Chen suddenly realized: "Simply put, you're just taking what's readily available, right?"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord nodded: "That's roughly the idea."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Since the Emperor chose Immortal Lord Ranhai, didn't he give you any other instructions?"

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled bitterly: "There were some explanations about the Star Sea, but they weren't of much help to the whole journey. He also didn't explain why he chose Burning Sea Immortal Lord. Of course, no matter who he chose, someone would be disappointed. And there really was no need to explain, since everything we have is what he gave us."

You know? I didn't know!
Tell me about it!
Lin Chen asked without any attempt to hide his curiosity, "Then tell me about it, right? You should be able to tell me, right?"

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord laughed and said, "There's nothing that can't be said, and it's not a secret. Perhaps Mu Tianjun will remind everyone later."

"This rift in the starry sky connects to a sea of ​​stars. It is an independent space, a continuous starry sky. In this sea of ​​stars, there are countless cosmic ghosts, as well as great opportunities hidden in unknown places."

"After entering the Star Sea, all you have to do is avoid those cosmic ghosts, then find the Great Dao opportunity hidden in the Star Sea, absorb this Great Dao opportunity, and you can successfully break through to the next realm. The moment you break through to become a Saint, you will be expelled from this Star Sea. Back then, the Emperor and the others were expelled after becoming Saints and left the Star Sea directly."

Lin Chen frowned: "Becoming a saint allows one to be automatically expelled, but what about those who don't become saints? How do they leave?"

The Seven-Colored Immortal pointed to the crack in the distance: "This crack will reopen for a short time in five years. That will be the opportunity to leave. After entering this crack, everyone will be transported to an ancient formation. That ancient formation is a safe place in the star sea and can block all attacks from cosmic ghosts."

"Five years from now, the ancient formation will be activated again, teleporting people out of it. So you must be careful. If you don't find a suitable opportunity for the Great Dao, don't stay there. Don't miss the five years. Otherwise, you may be trapped there forever until the ancient formation is activated again, which could be tens of thousands of years from now."

Lin Chen stared at the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord in shock: "An ancient formation? Who set up this ancient formation?"

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord shook his head: "I don't know."

Lin Chen replied, "Could it be the Celestial Race? After all, they are the rulers of the universe, possessing gods even more powerful than saints..."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord replied, "There was no answer to this matter before, but after learning of the existence of the Celestial Race, the Celestial Race may be the most likely answer. My master guessed that this place of opportunity might be a trial ground set up by the Celestial Race, specifically for people to improve their sainthood. It's just that we don't know why this trial ground appears next to the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm."

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "If it really is the Celestial Race, is it possible that all our actions while we were inside could have been under their watchful eyes?"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's expression was rather subtle: "It's not impossible, but for us, it's not important." Lin Chen roughly understood what the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord meant: "Because they don't care?"

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord nodded: "Yes, the three saints of the Immortal Realm and the four saints of the Demon Realm all broke through to sainthood in this land of opportunity and gained great benefits. The land of opportunity near the Demon Realm has even died, but no one cares. That's why I said I'm not important. Anyway, we just need to work hard to find the opportunity of the Great Dao and break through to sainthood."

Lin Chen's thoughts drifted away instantly.

If this place of opportunity is indeed a trial ground created by the Celestial Race, and if it is truly under the Celestial Race's attention, does that mean I might be able to make contact with the Celestial Race in this place of opportunity?

Seeing Lin Chen deep in thought and silent, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord laughed and said, "Don't overthink it. Whether we can even get in is another matter. Maybe we'll spend all this time thinking about it, only to find out we can't get in at all. Wouldn't that be a waste of effort?"

Lin Chen snapped out of his reverie and replied with a smile, "That's true. Let's just let things take their course."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord hummed in agreement: "Just wait!"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord closed his eyes, quietly rested, and waited for the rift to open.

Lin Chen walked around, greeted acquaintances such as Taixu Zhenren, Baiyu Xingjun, and Daosheng, and chatted for a while. The information he gained was roughly the same.

Everyone found a floating meteorite, sat cross-legged, and waited quietly.

This wait lasted for a month.

Finally, the white crack suspended in the starry sky grew larger and larger, like the Milky Way. Golden light burst forth from the crack, and the sea of ​​clouds inside the crack churned and retreated continuously. Gradually, black spots appeared in the sea of ​​clouds, eventually converging into a huge circle. The circle was dark, but within it, countless dark golden patterns emitted black light.

Lin Chen stood on the meteorite, observing the changes in the cracks from afar.

"Hey, Cong-ge, don't you think this crack looks like an eye?"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's face was also filled with shock: "Yes, my eyes were closed before, but now they are open. This scene is too shocking."

After a pause, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled wryly and said, "I am at least a peak Quasi-Saint, and I consider myself to have seen many grand scenes, but this scene still makes me feel insignificant."

The Seven-Colored Immortal looked up at the starry sky, gazing at the golden, shimmering crack that stretched for countless miles.

"If this was man-made, what immense power would be required to create such a magnificent scene?"

While the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord was merely sighing, Lin Chen was inexplicably startled.

If the opening of this rift was indeed controlled by a super strong person, then with his terrifying strength, how could he not have noticed so many people guarding the entrance of the rift?
