Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

”Then what should we do?”

Lin Chang’sheng naturally trusted Yan Zhen wouldn’t harm him—she must have a plan if she was speaking like this.

”Come with me!”

As soon as Yan Zhen finished speaking, she led Lin Chang’sheng toward the deepest part of the Imperial Palace.

Guided by Yan Zhen, Lin Chang’sheng quickly arrived at the palace’s most forbidden depths.

Up ahead stood a massive golden Great Hall, heavily guarded by elite cultivators stationed all around.

After entering the hall, he found five altars, each protected by a powerful warrior clad in white armor.

Covering the floor were countless formation seals, a testament to how formidable the array’s power was here.

At the center of the floor yawned a bottomless pit, its depths unfathomable.

”Your Majesty!”

As Yan Zhen arrived, the five altar guardians bowed to her in respect.

”How’s the array rift holding up?”

Yan Zhen asked.

”It’s still spreading. At first only a few Frost Outpost monsters could slip through, but now even Frost Warriors have begun escaping the array’s seal!”

One of the warriors in white armor answered gravely.

ROAR—

Just as he finished speaking, a deafening roar exploded up from the depths of the pit below.

”Looks like if we don’t repair the array soon, it won’t hold them for much longer!”

Yan Zhen said worriedly, glancing over at Lin Chang’sheng.

”To fix it, one person has to enter the array and repair the cracks from within, while someone else holds the Soul-Luring Lamp to point the way out. Without that, the person inside will never find the exit! Chang’sheng, I’m hoping you’ll be my lamp bearer!”

Yan Zhen’s gaze landed on Lin Chang’sheng, leaving him deeply shocked.

Yan Zhen actually intended to enter the array sealing the Frost Race herself? That was seriously dangerous.

”Sister Zhen, let me be the one to go into the array!”

Lin Chang’sheng replied.

Even though Yan Zhen’s cultivation had already reached the late stage of Tribulation Crossing, just a step away from the Immortal Realm,

right now, compared to Lin Chang’sheng, she fell a little short.

Because, at Lin Chang’sheng’s side, he not only had three late-stage Tribulation Crossing Corpse Puppets, but also the Wolf Race chief and two other powerful wolf warriors.

The Wolf Race chief possessed the strength of a Loose Immortal.

The Frost Race might not be able to stop him.

Plus, in Lin Chang’sheng’s hands was the powerful array sealed within the Holy Soul Banner.

Even if he came face-to-face with the Frost Demon Emperor, he might not be at a disadvantage.

”You want to go?”

Yan Zhen looked at Lin Chang’sheng, his determination nearly unbelievable to her.

”No way! You’re only at the late stage of Mahayana—a trip inside would mean certain death. How could I let you risk so much!”

Yan Zhen quickly shot down Lin Chang’sheng’s proposal.

In Yan Zhen’s eyes, Lin Chang’sheng was still someone she needed to protect.

Whether in the past or now.

To Yan Zhen, Lin Chang’sheng was always a child.

”Sister Zhen, have a look inside and you’ll understand!”

Trying to ease her worries, Lin Chang’sheng let Yan Zhen probe into his Storage Ring with her divine sense.

Inside, she could see the three Tribulation Crossing Corpse Puppets, plus the Wolf Race warriors.

After seeing that, surely Yan Zhen would believe him now.

”What is this?”

Yan Zhen was shocked after looking.

Were all these Corpse Puppets refined by Lin Chang’sheng? And were those other powerhouses really following him?

”These are all under my command. With them at my side, entering the array will be perfectly safe! Even if I encounter the Frost Demon Emperor, he may not be able to do anything to me!”

Lin Chang’sheng spoke his mind.

Hearing this, Yan Zhen began to hesitate. If Lin Chang’sheng truly controlled these formidable beings, his odds of survival inside were higher than her own.

”You’re not trying to fool me, are you?”

Yan Zhen stared him down.

”Of course not! When have I ever lied to you, Sister Zhen?”

Lin Chang’sheng chuckled.

”Even if you agree, your Dao companion has to as well! This mission is mortal peril!”

Yan Zhen assumed Guo Yunchu was Lin Chang’sheng’s Dao companion.

”Her? Sister Zhen, you’ve got it wrong—she’s not my Dao companion!”

Lin Chang’sheng hurried to clarify.

”That girl’s got talent—what, she’s not good enough for you?”

Yan Zhen laughed.

”She’s the Immortal Martial Hall’s young mistress—how could I ever be worthy of her? Not long ago, her dad was still sending people to hunt me!”

Lin Chang’sheng shared his story, making Yan Zhen burst out laughing.

The surrounding Frost City experts were totally bewildered by this.

The Empress of Frost was always so cold—who knew she could be so cheerful around Lin Chang’sheng?

Looks like these two had a special relationship!

”If she could leave but chooses to stay, doesn’t that mean she cares about you? You should seize the chance!”

Yan Zhen smiled.

Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t getting any younger. It was about time he found a talented Dao companion.

A mortal was out of the question—mortals only had a hundred years at best, while these powerful cultivators could live for thousands, ten thousand years—they were worlds apart.

”Seize the chance with her? No way—the young missy’s temper is way too much for me!”

Lin Chang’sheng didn’t want to be with Guo Yunchu. He could still remember how arrogant she used to be—it was all too vivid.

If he hadn’t spent time with her and realized she wasn’t all that bad, he would never have let her out—he’d have preferred to leave her in the storage ring forever.

”From what I can see, the young lady really likes you! Eyes never lie, you know!”

Yan Zhen could tell at a glance—Guo Yunchu’s look at Lin Chang’sheng was anything but simple. It was practically overflowing with affection.

”No way!”

Lin Chang’sheng refused to believe Guo Yunchu actually liked him that much.
