Chapter 1453: Chapter 422: The 10-Year Deadline Has Arrived! Chaos War Imminent! (Part 2)
How could Lu Changsheng have six hundred thousand Immortal Techniques?
Many immortals in the Exchange Hall were shocked, and there was an uproar.
But they knew the Immortal Technique system wouldn’t make a mistake.
It seems Lu Changsheng indeed has five hundred thousand Immortal Techniques.
Soon after, Lu Changsheng took these Immortal Techniques back to his Cave Mansion.
And immediately went into closed retreat again.
The people in the Exchange Hall looked at each other in confusion.
No one knew what was happening.
A few hours later, suddenly an immortal seemed to have received some incredible news.
"Look quickly, there’s news, big news!"
"Immortal Monarch Longevity has officially challenged the Ghost Race ’Lin’, to a life-and-death battle in the Chaos ten years from now!"
"Boom".
With this news out, many immortals were dumbfounded.
This news was truly explosive.
"Didn’t Immortal Monarch Longevity miss the appointment ten years ago?"
An immortal asked.
"Yes, ten years ago Immortal Monarch Longevity did indeed miss the appointment, but that was because Immortal Monarch Longevity was in a closed retreat, and there was simply no way to notify him."
"The challenge from ten years ago has long passed. And now Immortal Monarch Longevity is actively challenging the Ghost Race ’Lin’, I wonder if ’Lin’ will agree?"
"Why wouldn’t he agree? He will definitely agree! Although there is still ten years, during these ten years, Immortal Monarch Longevity will surely fight hard to enhance his power. But won’t ’Lin’ enhance his power as well? ’Lin’ is of the royal bloodline of the Ghost Race, the more time passes, the stronger ’Lin’ becomes."
"This battle, I fear Immortal Monarch Longevity still doesn’t have much chance of winning. Given ’Lin’s’ current strength already comparable to an Immortal Venerable, let alone ten years from now. If Immortal Monarch Longevity wants to have a chance, unless ten years later he can become a Golden Immortal Venerable!"
"Ten years to become an Immortal Venerable? Impossible..."
"If not an Immortal Venerable, then by actively challenging, Immortal Monarch Longevity is just seeking death."
"Now I finally see why Immortal Monarch Longevity was able to redeem items worth six hundred thousand Immortal Techniques at the Exchange Hall that day, it’s probably because he challenged ’Lin’, and the Heavenly Court awarded Immortal Monarch Longevity as a reward."
"In fact, this might even be the Heavenly Court using some underhanded means to force Immortal Monarch Longevity..."
Actually, many immortals could understand the kind of pressure Lu Changsheng was under.
Under such pressure, everyone knew what the Heavenly Court would do.
Of course, the Heavenly Court would certainly not admit it.
But look at the enormous Immortal Techniques granted to Lu Changsheng by the Heavenly Court.
This must be some kind of "compensation".
More obvious than clear.
As for whether Lu Changsheng could win?
There was almost no suspense anymore.
Lu Changsheng is almost certainly going to his death.
The Immortal Clan was in an uproar, and the Ghost Race also received the public message conveyed by the Heavenly Court.
It was an official challenge message.
On this day, the Ghost Race Commander came to ’Lin’s’ residence.
"’Lin’, Immortal Monarch Longevity has left his retreat and proposed a ten-year challenge, do you accept?"
The Ghost Race Commander asked.
"Swoosh".
’Lin’ opened his eyes.
"Ten years?"
"He finally dared to leave his retreat."
"Agree, whether it’s ten years or a hundred, agree to him!"
"’Qi’ is dead, he must also die!"
’Lin’s tone was ice cold.
It’s been ten years already.
He has repeatedly swept through the Immortal Clan in Chaos.
Driving the Immortal Clan’s defenses to retreat again and again.
Obviously, this wasn’t a useless effort, but had a purpose.
It was precisely because he repeatedly swept through Chaos that the Immortal Clan felt immense pressure.
This time, Lu Changsheng left his retreat and even proactively challenged, probably due to pressure from the higher-ups of the Immortal Clan.
But that doesn’t matter.
Whether coerced or voluntary.
To ’Lin’, it doesn’t matter.
The important thing is, he must kill Lu Changsheng.
That’s enough!
"Alright, then prepare well for these ten years."
The Ghost Race Commander left.
He didn’t say much.
Despite a ten-year buffer period.
But how much change can there be in these ten years?
In his view, Lu Changsheng’s active challenge is essentially the Heavenly Court admitting defeat.
Putting Lu Changsheng forward to calm ’Lin’s’ anger.
Some minor trickery.
However, this little trick does work.
He understands ’Lin’.
As long as Lu Changsheng is killed, avenging ’Qi’, ’Lin’ will not care about the battlefield between the Ghost Race and the Immortal Clan.
As time passed.
The Immortal Clan finally received a reply from the Ghost Race.
’Lin’ accepted.
And, ’Lin’ also ended his sweep through Chaos.
This couldn’t help but make the high ranks of the Immortal Clan breathe a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, they felt aggrieved.
The dignified Immortal Clan, the dignified Taiyi, forced by a small Ghost Race to this extent.
Truly a disgrace!
In the end, they still have to rely on an Immortal Monarch like Lu Changsheng to solve the Immortal Clan’s dilemma.
But, given the situation, they couldn’t do anything.
So, the message spread quickly.
’Lin’ accepted Lu Changsheng’s challenge.
Many immortals had complex emotions.
Some were dejected, some eager, and some excited.
However, most immortals understood deep down, from now on, this battle was already lost for Lu Changsheng...
This is the sorrow of the entire Immortal Clan.
Perhaps, only a miracle could "save" the Immortal Clan, save Immortal Monarch Longevity.
Regarding the sorrow of many immortals, Lu Changsheng did not know, even if he did know, he would not care.
He actively challenged ’Lin’, naturally with his considerations.
Actually, if it was truly to delay time.
Then he should have set it for twenty years, thirty, or even fifty.
Even a hundred years would work.
That would truly be delaying.
But Lu Changsheng didn’t want to do that.
He feared that if the challenge time was too long, by that time he would become a Golden Immortal Venerable, then it would be too much bullying for the Ghost Race.
