Towards the Path of Heaven
Chapter 316

How could the genius be happy to be called a test subject by Lin Chen? Regardless of what Lin Chen's intentions were, as a test subject, there was a 50% chance he would die as a test subject.

So, how could the genius agree?

"Lin Chen, you're dreaming!"

However, never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that Lin Chen did not respond after he finished speaking. Instead, someone from the group of geniuses behind him, who should be on the same side as him, spoke up.

"Male brother Zhao, we must leave this water region and ascend to the Dragon Peak. Since that's the case, why don't you listen to big brother Lin Chen? If anything happens, we'll save you soon."

"That's right, junior brother Zhao. We'll be ready this time. We won't let junior brother Zhao be in danger anymore."

The genius who was previously furious, immediately agreed with Lin Chen and forced him to do as he said.

This caused the face of the genius surnamed Zhao to become extremely ugly. How could he imagine that this so-called Chosen one would be a helpless coward?

"Are you all crazy? Don't you know what Lin Chen's intentions were since the beginning ?!"

However, the one who answered him was an indifferent voice.

"I don't care what he thinks. Big brother Zhao, we need you to contribute now."

These words completely extinguished the hope that the jemius had. However, how could he be willing to be treated like a puppet? Immediately, the boundless spiritual energy in his body surged and he would attack.

But at this moment, all the geniuses seemed to have anticipated his actions, and they actually moved at the same time to suppress him forcefully.

"You idiot. Now that you treat me as a test subject, you will be next. However, you helped the tiger commit a crime. You are the biggest idiot in the world!"

The jemius roared furiously, but no one noticed him. How could the geniuses around him not understand what he meant? However, even if they did, what could they do now after being in this position?

Even seals were unable to send them out of this dangerous region of water. Only by following Lin Chen's instructions would they have the greatest chance of reaching Dragon Peak and gaining security.

Moreover, even if a miracle was unwilling to admit it, they still had this thought in their hearts. With so many people, wouldn't they be the subject of the test?

As he watched this scene unfold, the geniuses around him were already speechless. This is especially true for those who regret that they did not take advantage of the opportunity. Now, it's getting harder for them to talk.

Because how is this an opportunity? It's clearly a trap. The audience saw the game clearly. How could they not see that this was a situation that Lin Chen had long anticipated?

As he looked at this scene, a mocking expression appeared on Yan Chutian's face.

However, at the same time, he had also raised Lin Chen's danger level by several levels. Even if the latter's cultivation wasn't very strong, this plan was enough to be considered a hidden danger.

In his previous life, Yan Chutian had faced countless enemies. However, what he feared the most was not the powerful and invincible enemy in the rumors. Instead, it was a dangerous and cunning enemy like Lin Chen!

Scene changed. At this moment, the genius surnamed Zhao, who had been suppressed by everyone, had been treated as a test subject and was forced to aim the ground forward.

However, his luck was not that good. Or maybe Lin Chen did it on purpose. The ground only advanced a little before it was swallowed up by the black river, and there was no more sound.

...

The genius surnamed Zhao was not the end. After that, more and more people continued to test the path. Even if they were unwilling, they could only face the gazes of the people behind them. Otherwise, their fate would be similar to that of the genius surnamed Zhao.

When a genius becomes more and more cooperative, it is not because the other does not try to save him, but always ends in failure. In fact, if they tried to force it, it seemed like they would be swallowed by the black river as well.

However, such a large price was not without results. At the very least, the crowd was getting closer to the Dragon Peak, now less than ten feet away.

This made the remaining geniuses happy. The Dragon Peak was right in front of them, and so far, they were not unfortunate enough to be the subject of the test.

They could not imagine how a disciple from a second-rate faction could approach Dragon Peak. By his status, the test subject was not so much. He should have died tragically when he left the group. Not only did he not die tragically, but he was also very close to Dragon Peak?

Not only them, but the many geniuses watching from the periphery were also shocked. They also thought that Yan Chutian should have long been swallowed up by the black river. However, he forcefully walked through this dangerous body of water as if it was flat land, and even approached Dragon Peak.

This subconsciously made silly thoughts appear in their minds. Could it be that the genius of this second-rate faction was the one who had actually seen through this dangerous body of water, and all the strangeness of this body of water ?!

Yan Chutian's location naturally caught Lin Chen's attention. He looked into the distance, his dark eyes silently staring, as if there was an indescribable color within.

After a long while, he averted his gaze, and a gentle whisper that only he could hear slowly sounded.

"Yan Chu, right? Heh, interesting …"

Fifteen minutes later, two more test subjects had died, and Lin Chen had finally reached Dragon Peak and set foot on this piece of land.

As soon as he set foot on Dragon Peak, Lin Chen knew that he could no longer limit the geniuses behind him, so he immediately headed to Dragon Peak.

When the genius behind him had also reached Dragon Peak, Lin Chen had disappeared in the precipitous mountain path.

Seeing this, the genius who had climbed the peak was naturally furious. They had been holding back for a long time, and had been restless for a long time. Seeing that they would erase their humiliation, if they attacked together, no matter how high the achievements of Lin Chen's formation were, he would definitely die.

However, Lin Chen was actually very wary, and instantly disappeared from the foot of the mountain.

However, this did not mean that they would let him go. This debt is remembered. If they saw Lin Chen again, they would definitely make him pay ruthlessly.

Amidst their anger, the prodigy also looked towards Yan Chutian. Right now, their expressions were a bit awkward, as some of them had previously mocked him for coming out of the group and approaching death.

However, now it seemed that he was not seeking death, but had the ability to cross dangerous bodies of water alone safely.

They also thought that if he took them across the water body, no one would die, and they did not need to be threatened by Lin Chen, and were agitated for fear of being the subject of the test.

It was precisely because of this that someone became angry, and inevitably shouted at Yan Chutian. "Sir, you are truly generous. As a fellow genius, you see through danger but only care to cross the river alone."

Hearing this, Yan Chutian inevitably felt that it was extremely laughable. His gaze swept over the furious genius, and also swept over the other geniuses.

Seeing he had the ability, they called him master and looked at him as a fellow genius. Just now, when he left the group, they all shouted that he was looking for death and did not know the vastness of heaven and earth.

Not to mention whether he had an obligation to lead them across the river, if he said that he had the ability to cross the river safely, they would mock him and laugh at him.

Therefore, Yan Chutian could not even be bothered with them. As he walked towards the rugged mountain road, a disdainful grin slowly sounded.

"The pathetic person .. definitely has something to hate about him!"

Such words immediately made the genius speechless. How could he not know that Lin Chen was mocking him? But even if he knew, what could he do? Because when he thought about it carefully, he was unable to find words to argue with. He could only stare at Yan Chutian's back as he walked away.

At the same time, the geniuses around him had bitter expressions on the face. Their hatred for Lin Chen increased.

If it wasn't for him, they wouldn't be in a difficult situation and wouldn't be ridiculed here!

Following the steep mountain path, Yan Chutian became even more excited. Because Qiu Yu and Yan Ningzhu were also at this Dragon Peak.

After a long time of not meeting, even Yan Chutian had to admit that he missed the woman he had lost and then rediscover her.

However, as he walked and walked, Yan Chutian felt that the mountain roads around him had become strange. White fog enveloped him. Although it was not dense, it seemed to be quietly changing the world around it.

Yan Chutian could only sigh. As expected, places of opportunity like this were not simple.
