Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2204: Chapter 2205: Spirit Realm

”You all going this time might encounter some trouble; he might do some small tricks inside.”

When Chen Lin arrived, his tone was heavy. He glanced at the elderly man with disgust in his eyes. Initially, the Sect Master had already sent him to do chores, but unexpectedly, Lin Chen and the others got mixed in, giving him the opportunity to take some measures.

”What can he do in there?” Lin Chen was indifferent; as long as it wasn’t the elder going personally, he wouldn’t be too worried.

”Are you stupid!”

Chen Lin, annoyed, gave Lin Chen’s head a pat, saying, ”He can manipulate the time and position when you enter. Although it’s not precise, he can ensure you stay within a hundred-meter range of those people.”

”Can it really be done like this?”

Even Chen Jie was stunned; she hadn’t thought of such a method.

”Of course, he can. All these trifling duties have been handed to him. If he tweaks a bit, who would know? Last time you embarrassed him in the hall, now he resents you...”

Chen Lin helplessly shook his head, his gaze full of concern fixated on Chen Jie. She was his only daughter and she too had to go, which made Chen Lin extremely worried.

Finally, he discreetly pulled out a few ornaments from his sleeve and handed them to Chen Jie, softly saying, ”Keep these items with you for when the need arises.”

After finishing this, Chen Lin coughed, then walked away.

Chen Jie lightly parted her lips, almost speaking out, but reconsidered and stopped the thought of calling him back. Instead, she pinched the items in her hand.

A surge of Spiritual Energy lingered above them, connecting the items together, merging them in her hand, as if they were a single entity.

These were the items Chen Jie had previously failed to find. With these, they could quickly gather in the spiritual realm.

After distributing them, as the final few figures landed on the plaza, the elder had already moved to the plaza’s center, beneath several statues.

He coughed a few times, cleared his throat, and after scanning the crowd, he slowly began, ”The contest has already started. This time, the spiritual realm you will head to is the Wood Spirit Realm, opened by the former Sect Master. According to the registration order, the wooden plaques will guide you; follow them.”

As he finished speaking, a jade-like object appeared in his hand, exuding a green aura with a profound hue, far superior to spiritual stones.

He then turned to the right, bowed slightly to a statue, then straightened up, his expression heavy, placing the jade stone on the statue’s leg. As the jade was set down, the statue emitted a burst of green light.

The green light intensified, painting the sky a lush shade, especially making the statue’s eyes seem alive, gazing from the clouds.

”What is this...” Lin Chen had never seen such a spectacle, his eyebrows raised instinctively, scanning the statue with gathered Spiritual Energy.

Yet within it, as if a barrier existed, Lin Chen’s opened eyes had no effect, remaining several meters in front of the statue, unable to see clearly.

At this moment, the green light around the statue swiftly gathered towards its chest, revealing a grand scene within.

A seemingly endless green unveiled a rugged angle from its chest.

”Is that the spiritual realm then...”

Lin Chen’s expression was solemn as he gazed at that place.

”Sect contest, now officially begins!”

The elder flicked his sleeve, and several figures emerged from the crowd, led by Tao Yuyu and his group.

They held wooden plaques, symbols of identity, and passes to enter the spiritual realm.

Tao Yuyu handed the plaque to the elder, and with a gesture, the plaque seemed to guide Tao Yuyu, floating half a meter in front of him, carrying him towards the statue’s chest.

About to enter the spiritual realm, Tao Yuyu turned, looking at Lin Chen, his gaze icy as he made a throat-slitting gesture with his hand before his figure vanished in a flash of light.

In mere moments, several others stepped forward, replicating Tao Yuyu’s actions, handing their plaques to the elder, and disappearing in the same way.

...

Soon enough, only a few dozen figures remained on the plaza, and the wait grew longer.

”Brother Sun, I shall go first!”

Within the statue, Guo Zhi’s figure flashed and entered, slightly bowing to Sun Tianming before vanishing inside.

Among these people, Lin Chen recognized only the not-too-close acquaintance, Guo Zhi. Besides Tao Yuyu, there were many with dense Spiritual Energy, comparable to Tao Yuyu. Indeed, many powerful contestants had emerged in this contest.

More peculiar was someone in the group, wrapped in black clothing, masked, a look drawing much attention. Yet he seemed entirely enveloped in black, impossible to discern.

”Just as Elder Chen said, some tricks have been played.”

Sun Tianming frowned, observing the distant statue with a serious expression.

”What tricks?” Chen Jie was curious.

”Look.”

Lin Chen raised his head, following Sun Tianming’s pointing finger to see several people fading into the statue.

Among them was one person Lin Chen remembered clearly; he had followed Lin Chen since he registered, the irritable man.

”Originally, we should enter according to registration order, but obviously, my turn has been delayed...”

Sun Tianming furrowed his brows; this was quite unfavorable. Such delays meant those entering first could prepare earlier.

”Hah, I shall see what more tricks he can play!”

Lin Chen was angry too, he narrowed his eyes, focusing on the elder, anger in his gaze.

As time passed, soon only Lin Chen and a rather large man were left on the plaza.

The vast space was empty.

”Let’s go.”

Finally, Lin Chen’s wooden plaque moved slightly; they were finally allowed to enter the spiritual realm.

”Second to last, why not make it the very last?” Lin Chen sneered.

Then, his gaze swept behind him to see only the single bulky figure lingering there. He appeared unperturbed, standing alone, undisturbed, munching a large pork knuckle with greasy lips.

This peculiar sight made Lin Chen take one more look before his figure disappeared into the statue’s chest.
