Chapter 281: Stone Man Array
Traveling with Huang Tao and his group, Lin Yun didn’t have to worry about his safety at all. Here, no genius from any faction could challenge a Direct Disciple of Celestial Eagle Valley.
"Brother Lin, you’re truly the most gifted person I’ve ever met. Your talent is comparable to our Eldest Brother’s." Huang Tao and Lin Yun had grown familiar with each other on the journey, and the two were chatting idly.
"Eldest Brother?"
"Haha, surely you’ve heard of our Eldest Brother, Brother Lin? He’s one of the Five Great Demon Fiends of the Eastern Domain, Lin Jianhong." At the mention of Lin Jianhong, all the Direct Disciples of Celestial Eagle Valley swelled with pride. That name represented the very peak of the Eastern Domain’s younger generation.
’The Five Great Demon Fiends.’ To the Lin Yun of the past, they had seemed so impossibly out of reach. Yet now, Huang Tao was already discussing him in the same breath as them.
"Brother Lin, I’m sure that in a few years, you’ll become the Eastern Domain’s sixth Great Demon Fiend," Huang Tao said with a laugh.
Lin Yun just chuckled and shook his head without a word. ’A few years? Perhaps I’ll have broken through to the Primordial Ocean Realm by then, but would the other Five Great Demon Fiends have stagnated? As you improve, they are certainly improving as well.’
This didn’t mean Lin Yun lacked confidence, however. In his heart, he firmly believed that one day, he would stand with the Five Great Demon Fiends to vie for the peak of Taishan and contend for the title of number one in the Eastern Domain’s younger generation.
As they continued on, Huang Tao’s presence ensured Lin Yun’s journey was peaceful. No one came looking for trouble. The Crown Prince and the Third Prince could only glare at him coldly, not daring to make a move.
On the sixth day, the dozens of young geniuses who had made it this far finally reached the final trial.
