Luo Chen's conditions were not difficult in the eyes of Li Jinfeng and others. For the second condition, he only needed to find two male cultivators with weak willpower. There was no need to force them. There would definitely be people who would voluntarily cooperate with Luo Chen. As for the first condition...

"But no matter what the result is, I'm going to pretend I don't know you. I think you just don't believe we can win, so you want to leave a way out."

Zhong Jun looked at Luo Chen with dissatisfaction. He was very unhappy with the idea of ​​being afraid before fighting, but the other party just chuckled and said.

"It's just a precaution. If you fail, as long as you use the teleportation talisman to escape in time, at most you will lose the reward for this competition. If we fail, we may even lose our lives. Of course, we have to leave a way out. Just tell me whether you want to sign the contract or not, right?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jinfeng and the other two gathered together to discuss for a while and agreed to Luochen's request. The content of the contract was: Luochen's identity cannot be revealed during the competition. If anyone thinks of revealing Luochen's identity, the memory of the past few days will be automatically forgotten and never recovered.

After all the people had signed the contracts, Luo Chen selected two people from several male cultivators who volunteered to cooperate with her. The people who were selected were quite happy, and their lustfulness was so great that Li Jinfeng and others could not understand.

After that, everyone rehearsed several times, and after confirming that there were no problems, it was time for a long wait.

Lin Ji, who was being plotted against, was still collecting spiritual plants along the way. During this time, he finally met two female cultivators. He easily defeated them and obtained several books introducing the Ten Thousand Stars Realm.

From the books, Lin Ji learned about the division of cultivation levels of the cultivators in this universe, the names of several large worlds, and a very important piece of information: the strongest being in this universe, the Immortal Emperor, had disappeared for more than 15,000 years, which has led to constant wars in all walks of life now.

……

Inside the Formation Hall of Tianshu City.

More than 50 formation masters, including Xiao Ningxue, gathered in the largest square in front of the Formation Hall. In the center of the square stood a huge black ring with densely packed and complex formation patterns drawn on it. The lines of each formation pattern were very clear and coherent, looking like an ink painting.

"City Lord, everything has been checked. We can start the experiment."

He Ming walked back from the ring and spoke respectfully to Xiao Ningxue.

"Well, let's get started."

Xiao Ningxue nodded, but her eyes were always fixed on the ring, praying that nothing would go wrong. Otherwise, without Lin Ji's presence, no one would be able to clearly point out whether there was a problem with the space.

As Xiao Ningxue gave the order, He Ming activated the formation. The patterns on the ring began to glow, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

"Om~!"

Suddenly, the ring vibrated slightly, and then a circular portal slowly appeared in front of everyone, with a dim light emanating from all around the portal.

At this time, a foundation-building cultivator appeared on the side. He controlled a ninth-level Qi training monster and let it enter the portal.

"Boom~!"

After the monster entered the portal, the ring began to rotate, then the portal slowly closed and disappeared, and everything returned to calm.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the portal to open again to complete the most important part of the experiment.

A few minutes later, the ring began to vibrate, and the portal appeared again. Then a left hand stretched out from it, and then Deng He's whole body passed through the light gate, and his right hand grabbed the monster that was used for the experiment.

"City Lord, we succeeded!"

Deng He shouted happily.

"Yes, it finally worked!"

Xiao Ningxue was also very happy, and the expression on her face showed her excitement at the moment. The formation masters around her also began to celebrate.

"Everyone, you have worked hard. We will hold a banquet tonight to celebrate and reward you. Now pack up and go back to rest."

After calming down her excitement, Xiao Ningxue said that all the hard work during this period finally had a happy ending.

"Thank you City Lord."

"Thank you City Lord."

Everyone bowed to Xiao Ningxue, and then He Ming pointed to a few people to stay with him to clean up the scene, and the rest left with Hu Xiatian.

After seeing everyone leave, Xiao Ningxue went back to the City Lord's Mansion to get something, and then went directly to Xuantian City to find Luo Youran.

Xuantian City.

"The improved teleportation array was successful? Now it can be used anywhere in the East Continent, even to the moon!"

Luo Youran, who was handling affairs, was shocked by Xiao Ningxue and looked at her in a daze. Previously, all matters concerning Tianshu City were handled by Lin Ji, and Luo Youran only had to arrange for his servants to provide resources. He really didn't understand the situation there.

"It's more appropriate to call it a portal now. My brother is not here, so I told you first."

Xiao Ningxue used wood spiritual power to create a chair, sat in front of Luo Youran, and explained the specific details of the portal.

"Ningxue, is it true as you said that this portal consumes very little energy and can be opened and used just by absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy?"

Luo Youran asked in surprise.

"Well, the consumption is indeed very small. The portal only needs to absorb enough spiritual energy to open. However, it can only last for three minutes at most. If the time limit is exceeded, the portal will be closed. You must get out in advance, otherwise you will die. It will take a few minutes to reopen it, and the formation master needs to check it every once in a while."

Xiao Ningxue said seriously.

"Well, let's put it this way, Ningxue. I will arrange for the equipment refinery to make 10 circles first. After the formation is drawn, I will try it out in a few cities. After confirming that there are no problems, I will mass-produce it and spread it across the cities of the East Continent."

As he spoke, Luo Youran's tone became excited. If all these things were produced, then the cultivators and even mortals in the East Continent would be able to use the portal, and the impact on the entire continent would be endless.

"You decide for yourself. I don't understand this. This is the improvement plan for the ring. You can hand it over to the refinery when the time comes. I'm going back first."

Xiao Ningxue handed a copy of the improved drawing to Luo Youran.

"Okay, then I won't waste your precious time."

Luo Youran took the drawing, put it on the table, waved goodbye to Xiao Ningxue, and then Xiao Ningxue quickly left Xuantian City.

……

Two days had passed in the Ten Thousand Beast Realm at this time, and the formation protecting the space crystal had been automatically unlocked, but Lin Ji still hadn't appeared, causing the group of cultivators in ambush to become a little impatient, and Zhong Jun couldn't help but speak.

"What on earth is that alien doing? It's already the second day and there's still no trace of him. What should we do now?"

"What should we do? Just keep waiting. The best place to get rewards in the entire competition is the Beast King Peak. The Outsiders will definitely come. It's just a matter of time."

Li Jinfeng curled his lips, looking indifferent. Luochen, who was playing chess with Luomo in the corner, heard the noise and said to Zhong Jun who was still impatient.

"Brother Zhong, you are so impatient, it's not good for your cultivation. Why don't you calm down by playing a game of chess?"

Zhong Jun turned around and looked helplessly at the three-dimensional Go board and the densely packed chess pieces floating between Luo Chen and the other person.

"Forget it. I can't play chess like you. Let's practice."

As he spoke, Zhong Jun also found a corner and started practicing.

Half a day later, the monk who was giving warning tens of thousands meters away from the Beast King Peak finally sent a message that a monk who looked like an alien was heading towards the Beast King Peak.

Upon receiving the news, Li Jinfeng immediately informed the surrounding monks to hide their bodies. Luochen in the corner also dispersed the chessboard and began to prepare for the performance.

……

Lin Ji is in a good mood now. He has gained a lot in the past two days. Not only did he fill the space bead with spiritual plants, he also met some cultivators and obtained more than a dozen new books. Of course, there were a few people who did not cooperate and were killed by Lin Ji.

"It's time to go to the central Beast King Peak. There must be a lot of people gathered there."

Thinking of this, Lin Ji quickened his pace and soon arrived at the foot of the Beast King Peak. Looking at the behemoth in front of him that was bigger than Kaiyang Star, Lin Ji used his mental power to search the surroundings while climbing the mountain to see if he would find anything.

But the Beast King Peak was too huge. Lin Ji had been looking for a long time but couldn't find any human figures. He could only speed up and fly to the top of the mountain.

"My benefactor, here, here."

A voice came into Lin Ji's ears, making him frown. He turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from. Yuehua was standing under a towering tree, waving at him happily.

"How did you avoid my mental search?"

Lin Ji came to Yuehua and asked curiously, and he also focused his attention, ready to subdue her if anything unexpected happened.

"Hey, don't underestimate me. My master prepared a magic weapon for me. It can block mental scanning. I was careless when I was discovered by those two people before. It will definitely not happen again in the future."

Yuehua showed off the jade bracelet on her wrist and said proudly, her beautiful eyes blinking, looking very cute. However, Lin Ji didn't buy it and continued to ask.

"Why did you call me?"

"I found a space crystal and wanted to take it away directly, but two people came in from behind. I knew I was no match for them so I ran away. I didn't expect to meet you, my benefactor."

Yuehua said this and blinked at Lin Ji, looking flattering.

"where is it?"

After listening to Yuehua's words, Lin Ji asked further. In the past two days, he also learned from other cultivators what the rewards of this competition are. One of the rewards, the space crystal, can allow people to comprehend the rules of space, which is what Lin Ji wants most.

"My benefactor, it's on the cliff on the mountainside. I'll take you there. With your strength, you will definitely be able to get the space crystal."

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Yuehua smiled and agreed to Lin Ji, and led him to fly up the mountain.

Lin Ji didn't say anything and followed Yuehua quickly to the top of the mountain. Soon they flew to the cliff platform on the mountainside. The whole platform was shrouded in fog, and the situation inside could not be seen. Even the mental power was blocked. Lin Ji became suspicious and asked Yuehua.

"Yuehua, are you sure there's nothing wrong here?"

Hearing Lin Ji's suspicious tone, Yuehua immediately became unhappy and pouted angrily.

"Humph, how could there be a problem here? I just came out from inside!"

Lin Ji didn't reply but looked at Yuehua calmly. His meaning was very clear: you have to come up with a reason that convinces me.

Seeing that the other party still didn't believe her, Yuehua was a little annoyed, so she pointed a slender finger at her forehead and spoke directly.

"Tell me your name, and we'll sign a soul contract. Then you'll believe it, right?"

After she finished speaking, her eyes turned slightly red, tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at Lin Ji pitifully.

Seeing this scene, Lin Ji's doubts disappeared a little, but the soul contract still had to be signed. This was the strongest constraint on cultivators in his opinion, and at least it had never gone wrong in the history of Kaiyang Star.

"My name is Lin Ji, let's start signing the contract."

Lin Ji spoke out his real name. There was no other way. The soul contract must be signed with the real names of both parties. Anyway, he had already told the dragon before, so it would be okay to tell one more person.

A ray of light flew out from Yuehua's forehead and entered Lin Ji's body. Then a piece of text floated out from his mind. This piece of text was the contract. There was no problem with the treaty, but the final signatories were Lin Ji and Luo Chen, not Yuehua. This made Lin Ji look at the other party again.

"My master said that when traveling outside, using a pseudonym can better protect myself. My real name is Luochen."

Noticing Lin Ji's gaze, Luo Chen began to explain and then continued.

"Lin Ji, you can go in now, don't worry, there is only one illusion array inside, there is no danger, otherwise I can't get out."

Hearing this, Lin Ji nodded, then walked into the fog side by side with Luo Chen.
