Chapter 224: Distributing the Harvest, the Palace of Confusion!

Lin Chen was silent when he heard this and did not answer.

Old Taoyao looked unhappy when he saw this, but he still said:

"Are you going to look for Dragon Spirit Grass deep in the ruins?"

"Good boy...you are really greedy."

He thought for a while and said:

"For half a day, you can still stay in the ruins for half a day."

"I will send the other monks away first... If you still don't leave the ruins after half a day, it will be regarded as your second favor."

Lin Chen curled his lips after hearing this, this old Taoyao man was also a shrewd monster.

But he did not refuse, nodded and said:

"Okay, senior...just wait a moment."

After saying that, Lin Chen came to Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan and said:

"After you two leave the ruins, find a place to hide as soon as possible... I will contact you after Junior Sister Jiang and I go out."

With that said, Lin Chen took out two hundred spiritual peaches and handed them to the two of them.

"You keep these peaches first, and don't follow the ruins next."

Zhou Tieshan naturally listened to Lin Chen's words.

Although Li Zhenqian was reluctant to part with them, his eyes almost turned red after seeing these peaches.

How precious these spiritual peaches are can be seen from the monks who died before.

A spiritual peach is worth at least one hundred thousand spiritual stones or even more!

Moreover, this thing has a price but no market in the outside world!

Divided into two, Li Zhenqian would get at least tens of millions of spiritual stones.

This is much better than them exploring the ruins!

Thinking of this, Li Zhenqian accepted the peach and hummed:

"Ahem, if that's the case... Junior Brother Zhou and I will go out and wait for you first."

Li Zhenqian also knew that if they continued to stay, they would be held back.

Lin Chen nodded slightly towards the old man Taoyao.

Old Man Taoyao waved his hand, and two breezes enveloped the four of them.

Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan were sent out of the ruins.

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian were wrapped in one of the breezes, and their surroundings changed in an instant.

After a while, the two landed in a strange place.

At the same time, Old Man Taoyao's voice came to Lin Chen's ears:

"Junior, remember you only have half a day."

…

Jiang Liqian carefully observed her surroundings. In front of her was a palace, covering an area of ​​more than a hundred feet.

Above the palace, there is a quaint atmosphere of time.

Jiang Liqian took out the map, compared it carefully, and said in surprise:

"Then Old Man Taoyao sent us directly to the entrance of Luanxin Palace!"

"This is the last level outside the ruins! As long as you pass this level, you can enter the inside of the ruins."

After hearing this, Lin Chen felt a little surprised and muttered: "It seems that old man Taoyao is not bad."

Teleporting directly to the entrance of Luanxin Palace can at least save the two of them several hours of time.

Lin Chen did not rush into the palace, but took out a storage bag and handed it over.

"Junior sister Jiang, you have contributed a lot to entering the ruins this time... I will give you half of the remaining four thousand spirit peaches."

Jiang Liqian was slightly surprised after hearing this. Lin Chen was too generous.

These four thousand spiritual peaches, if converted into spiritual stones, are absolutely astronomical figures.

But Jiang Liqian shook her head and said:

"That's not okay. You got this spiritual peach in exchange for favors. You risked your life."

"And too many spiritual peaches are of no use to me... Well, I only need three hundred, that's enough!"

Jiang Liqian thought for a while, took away the three hundred spiritual peaches, and returned the rest to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen did not hesitate. After putting the peaches away, he looked at the palace in front of him and said:

"Where does this Labyrinth Palace come from?"

Jiang Liqian collected a lot of information, she said:

"The Labyrinth Palace is an important sect location of Longling Sect. Its palace is full of illusions..."

"It used to be used to hone the disciples' consciousness and mind."

"Only those with strong enough spiritual consciousness or outstanding minds can pass through the palace smoothly."

After a pause, Jiang Liqian said again:

"According to information, there are not many monks who can successfully come to Labyrinth Palace."

"There are almost no people who have passed this level. I heard that two Yuanying monks successfully entered the ruins... and picked a few dragon spirit grasses."

Lin Chen nodded after hearing this, "In that case, let's go in."

After saying that, Lin Chen gathered his body-protecting essence and took the lead in walking towards the entrance of the Enchanting Palace.

Since the test was about spiritual consciousness, there was no reason for Lin Chen to be afraid.

Seeing Lin Chen's relaxed steps, Jiang Liqian became even more curious about what Lin Chen's confidence was.

Lin Chen came to the entrance of the main hall of Mixin Palace and opened the door of the main hall.

The main hall was empty, with no objects placed.

There are only many mysterious patterns carved on the walls and floors.

It looks like a formation, but also like a talisman...

Lin Chen looked forward. About a hundred feet away, there was the other end of the hall.

A half-covered door seemed to be the exit of the labyrinth.

"Go through this labyrinth and go out through that door...even if you have passed this level."

Jiang Liqian came to Lin Chen's side and reminded him softly.

Lin Chen did not rush over, but squatted at the door of the hall, observing the wonderful words on the ground that looked like formations and talismans.

Seeing Lin Chen's curious expression, Jiang Liqian explained:

"This is a formation pattern. It is a method used by formation masters in ancient times. Nowadays, few people have mastered it."

"The formation pattern is a combination of formation techniques and talisman characters. The power of the formation technique is hidden in these patterns..."

After hearing this, Lin Chen looked at Jiang Liqian in surprise.

He had read many ancient books, but had never heard of this formation pattern.

Jiang Liqian's knowledge seemed so profound that she could even recognize such unpopular ancient skills.

Just when Lin Chen was surprised, Jiang Liqian had already taken a step forward.

After entering the hall, Lin Chen clearly felt that Jiang Liqian's eyes were dull for a moment.

After a moment, he regained consciousness and took the next step.

In just over ten breaths, Jiang Liqian took several steps.

But Lin Chen also keenly discovered that Jiang Liqian's pace was getting slower and slower.

"Interesting... Every time you take a step, you fall into an illusion?"

"The closer you are to the exit, the stronger the illusion and the more confusing it is... This Palace of Confusion does have some tricks."

Lin Chen carefully observed the palace.

The two doors are a hundred feet apart and are composed of different square floors.

There are thirty-six floors on the shortest route to the exit.

If you step on each floor, you will need to pass through at least thirty-six illusions.

This difficulty... is not low.

"But can we just step over it?"

While Lin Chen was thinking, Jiang Liqian had already passed through seven illusions and took seven steps.

She turned back and said, "Brother Lin, don't stand there... There is no shortcut for this level. You need to pass through all 36 illusions. Otherwise, the exit will not open."

Lin Chen blinked after hearing this, and took the first step without any hesitation.

Boom!

After Lin Chen took the first step, he heard a burst of laughter.

Lin Chen saw several beautiful women with good looks surrounding him, tempting him crazily.

"Hehe, a rosy skeleton."

Lin Chen sneered, easily saw through the illusion, and took the second step.

After he took the second step, the illusion around him changed again.

The beauty became more real, and she wore fewer clothes...

However, with Lin Chen's consciousness in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, he could still see through it easily.

Then, Lin Chen took more than ten steps in ten breaths...

He caught up with Jiang Liqian in one breath and came to her side.

Jiang Liqian was surprised when she saw him, and exclaimed:

"Brother Lin's consciousness... I'm afraid it's comparable to that of a Yuanying cultivator?"

Lin Chen smiled and nodded:

"I had a chance before and got a good spiritual consciousness technique..."

Jiang Liqian didn't delve into it after hearing this. Cultivators all have secrets, and sometimes it's more important to grasp the right measure.

Jiang Liqian smiled and said:

"In that case, I won't wait for Brother Lin..."

"Brother Lin, let's see who can reach the exit first?"

After saying that, Jiang Liqian moved forward again, and walked five or six steps in just ten breaths.

Lin Chen smiled, and without much reservation, followed Jiang Liqian.

This Palace of Confusion, which is as difficult as ascending to heaven for Jindan cultivators, seems to have little difficulty in front of the two.

In just a few dozen breaths, the two have walked more than thirty steps.

Thirty of the thirty-six illusions have been passed by the two.

Only the last six are left...

Jiang Liqian looked at Lin Chen beside him with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"Brother Lin, it looks easy! But these last six illusions... don't look that easy!"

Lin Chen frowned slightly and looked at the array pattern on the ground.

The array patterns engraved on the last six floors were obviously more complicated, and the corresponding illusions might be more difficult.

However, Lin Chen didn't care, just smiled and said:

"In that case, Brother, let me start with a brick..."

After that, Lin Chen took the lead and took a step forward.

After that, he stood there without moving.

Jiang Liqian was on the side, counting silently.

"One, two, three..."

When he counted to the seventh time, Lin Chen opened his eyes and successfully got rid of the illusion.

"Brother, it took seven breaths, it's my turn next."

As he said that, Jiang Liqian also took a step forward, and then stood there in a daze.

Lin Chen also counted silently.

Looking at Jiang Liqian who was completely unable to move and frowned, Lin Chen sighed:

"This Palace of Confusion has to guard against more than just illusions..."

"If two strangers try to break through at the same time, I'm afraid there will be others who will be in trouble."

Luckily, at this moment, only Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian are left in the ruins of Longling Sect.

They trust each other enough, so there is no need to worry about this.

At the same time, Lin Chen whispered in his heart: "One, two..."

When Lin Chen counted to the tenth breath, Jiang Liqian opened his eyes.

It is difficult for cultivators trapped in illusions to perceive the passage of time, so Jiang Liqian asked with a little doubt:

"Brother Lin, how long did it take me?"

Lin Chen pursed his lips and smiled: "Five breaths, Sister Jiang is really amazing."

Jiang Liqian smiled sweetly and said:

"Then Brother Lin has to work hard!"

Lin Chen nodded and took another step.

Ten breaths, fifteen breaths, twenty breaths, thirty breaths...

The more realistic the illusion becomes, the higher the difficulty.

Lin Chen stayed longer and longer, but never more than fifty breaths.

Jiang Liqian stayed longer than Lin Chen, but the difference was only 20%.

This surprised Lin Chen even more.

"Junior Sister Jiang's spiritual power... seems to have reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?"
