The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3389 The Prey of the Trial Grounds?
"Lin Chen, what are your plans?"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord walked to Lin Chen's side, gazing at the deep starry sky in the distance, and asked in a low voice.

Lin Chen replied, "Wandering around and trying my luck seems to be the only option."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord nodded: "Be careful in everything."

Lin Chen whispered a reminder: "Cong-ge, be careful too. If you encounter a large number of ghosts chasing you, try to escape into the ground. That might help you avoid them."

Although everyone here is a competitor or rival in a sense, Lin Chen still whispered a reminder to Seven-Colored Immortal Lord, after all, they are friends.

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's eyes lit up: "The ghosts can't sense the underground?"

Lin Chen replied, "It should be. I used this trick to dodge ghosts before."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder."

Lin Chen glanced at the Burning Sea Immortal Lord on the other side, pondering how to follow him without being noticed.

Looking at Lin Chen, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord roughly understood Lin Chen's thoughts, and his gaze was slightly complicated: "Now quite a few people know that he was chosen by Master, and they are all paying attention to him."

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's words were a reminder to Lin Chen that he wasn't the only one eyeing Burning Sea Immortal Lord; quite a few others had designs on him, so he should be careful.

Lin Chen frowned, then smiled wryly and said, "It's no use me keeping an eye on him. He's so powerful, I can't do anything to him. Besides, if I really did something to him, and he went out and complained to the Emperor, I'd be dead for sure."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord chuckled: "While that is indeed the case, with such an opportunity before us, and a genuine chance to become a saint, who wouldn't want to take a gamble? After all, this is the only path to advancement; leaving here means there will be no chance of advancement in this lifetime."

"If I can become a saint, then even if I have to face my master's wrath after leaving, so what?"

Lin Chen looked up at the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and asked softly, "Brother Cong, if you were faced with such an opportunity, what would you do?"

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Some things you only know what choice you will make when the time comes."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord looked slightly ashamed: "But when you asked me this question, my heart did not immediately refuse, which makes me feel ashamed."

Lin Chen let out a soft breath: "How many people can resist the temptation of becoming a saint!"

As the two were quietly conversing, the gathered quasi-saints had already left the safe zone, transforming into streaks of light and heading into the depths of the starry sky, preparing to explore the sea of ​​stars.

Opportunities are limited, first come, first served, and nobody wants to fall behind.

Immortal Lord Ranhai took flight and set off, followed by several figures who immediately followed from a distance.

Lin Chen frowned and gave up the idea of ​​following him. After all, there were so many people following him, and even if he followed, there was nothing he could do.

"Take care of yourself!"

Lin Chen chose a direction with relatively few people, flew out, transformed into a streak of light, and headed towards the depths of the starry sea.

After flying for a distance, Lin Chen landed on a floating meteorite, looking around with a furrowed brow.

As he flew along, he discovered many fragments of various kinds: some were metal pieces, some were wood fragments, some were huge broken scales that looked like those of an animal, and he even found half a broken wheel.

These fragments floated in the starry sky, mixed among the endless fragments of meteorites.

This doesn't look like the starry sky, it looks more like a battlefield!
Lin Chen sensed something was amiss. Even if the Three Saints had fought the ghosts when they entered this place, it was impossible for so many different kinds of items to have shattered. The others were understandable, but how did he explain the broken scales?

Mu Tianjun said that any life form that did not enter through the rift would be strangled. The Three Saints did not bring any demonic beasts or pets with them when they entered.

Aside from the Three Saints, who else has visited this starry sea?

If there really is someone, who could it be?

Powerful life forms from other star systems, or perhaps, the Celestials?
Since they had already assumed that this star sea was a trial ground created by the Celestial Race, wasn't it perfectly reasonable for the Celestial Race to come to the trial ground to conduct trials?

Upon realizing this possibility, Lin Chen immediately tensed up.

If the Celestial Race truly exists here, then what are we, who have entered this sea of ​​stars, to be?
Lin Chen's thoughts suddenly began to wander, as he tried to connect all the hypotheses in his mind.

Celestial Race.

A place of trial.

The entrance to the rift exists near both the realm of gods and the realm of demons.

Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes wide. If this was the Trial Grounds of the Celestial Clan, then were their existence also part of the Celestial Clan's trials?

If what I suspect is true, then this expedition may not be as simple as I imagined.

Lin Chen continued forward, and soon, floating cosmic spirits appeared in the starry sky. These cosmic spirits, which emitted a faint light, sensed Lin Chen's presence and quickly approached him.

Lin Chen did not fight them. Instead, he turned around and struck out with his palm. A huge meteorite floating in the distance instantly exploded into countless meteorites, which flew into the starry sky in all directions.

Lin Chen's figure fell like starlight, instantly catching up with a large, rapidly flying meteorite. He then landed on it and used earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a technique in Chinese fantasy novels) to escape into the giant meteorite.

The rapidly approaching cosmic ghosts instantly lost their target and wandered around in place. The meteorite streaked across the sky, quickly moving away from the cosmic ghosts.

Lin Chen emerged from the meteorite, sat cross-legged on the rapidly moving meteorite, and pondered the next exploration plan.

This star field stretched as far as the eye could see, filled with broken meteorites, and Lin Chen had no way of knowing where the so-called Great Dao opportunity was hidden.

Just as Lin Chen was flying aimlessly for several days, two points of light suddenly appeared in the starry sky ahead, rapidly approaching him.

Were they targeting me?

Lin Chen stood up on the meteorite. At the same time, two points of light approached, enveloping two slender figures.

Before Lin Chen could even see clearly who the figure was, a small sword flew up from one of the figures, carrying immense power and extreme speed, and pierced towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen's pupils contracted, his figure flashed, and he disappeared in an instant.

"boom!"

The meteorite that Lin Chen had been sitting on exploded, and the powerful energy shattered it into dust.

Lin Chen appeared a hundred miles away and was greatly surprised to see the two figures appearing in the air.

The two people were a man and a woman. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were tall and slender with pointed and long ears and a purple mark between their eyebrows. The mark looked like a diamond-shaped crystal.

These two are neither human nor demon!
Could they be gods?
