Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1956: Chapter 1957: The Iron-Tailed Tiger Appears

This task, Lin Chen dares say, he might be the only one in the outsider inner circle confident enough to complete it.

The Iron-tail Tiger, even among those at the ninth level of divine martial power, is a formidable beast. Most martial artists at that level might struggle not only to defeat it but to slay it. And it’s not just one Iron-tail Tiger, but an entire den, including two ninth-level Iron-tail Tigers and an unknown number of cubs.

To Lin Chen, this task isn’t particularly difficult, but for other powerful figures from the outsider inner circle, it’s almost an impossible task. Sword Bone’s selection of tasks is highly accurate, pushing top disciples to either barely succeed or fail. If Lin Chen succeeds, it proves his strength far exceeds all other disciples, making it hard for Sword Bone to stop him from venturing out.

Lin Chen smiled slightly, then handed the token to the steward, saying:

”I want to take on this task!”

The steward took the token, frowned slightly as he looked at it.

”Are you sure? With your seventh-level martial power, isn’t this mission a suicide?”

Lin Chen frowned upon hearing this, but explained:

”The Sword Bone Elder personally instructed me to complete it, rest assured, Steward, I have the ability to do it!”

The steward looked at Lin Chen with skepticism, still not quite believing him, but before he could say more, the previously napping Elder Qin opened his eyes and said lightly:

”Let him take it!”

After speaking, he glanced at Lin Chen and closed his eyes again.

When Elder Qin looked at him, Lin Chen felt as if all his martial power was exposed, deepening his understanding of Elder Qin’s strength.

Seeing Elder Qin speak, the steward dared not delay further, immediately registered the task token and returned it to Lin Chen, reminding him:

”Lin Chen, keep in mind to complete this task within seven days!”

Lin Chen nodded, glanced at Elder Qin, then turned and walked towards Mo Wan’er and Li Ping.

Li Ping stepped forward and asked:

”Lin, where is your mission destination?”

Lin Chen replied:

”I need to head to the southern part of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range, the Yin Wind Forest, to slay a beast!”

”What a coincidence, we’re also heading to the Yin Wind Forest, but our mission is to gather herbs from the outskirts. By the way, what beast do you need to slay, brother?”

”Iron-tail Tiger!”

”What? Iron-tail Tiger? Is it the one whose strength is rumored to have reached the pinnacle of the ninth level of martial power?”

Both Li Ping and Mo Wan’er were quite surprised, but thinking of Lin Chen’s extraordinary combat ability made them more at ease. They had heard the steward’s words that, within a month, Lin Chen jumped two levels to reach the seventh level of martial power.

However, Lin Chen did not mention that he was to slay not one, but a group! Yet, there’s no need to reveal that, it would only shock Li Ping and Mo Wan’er even more.

”If that’s the case, we can head out together for the mission, I’ll escort you to the outskirts, free of charge!”

Having companions on the journey lifted Lin Chen’s spirits, he even cracked a joke.

After some planning, there was nothing else to prepare, thus they immediately set off for the Yin Wind Forest!

Not long after their departure, the news of Lin Chen, Mo Wan’er, and Li Ping setting out together for the mission reached Qian Jin’s ears. As once the number one among the outsider five strongest, he had many eyes and ears, especially since Lin Chen took the task openly and simply left without any concealment, and people nearby all knew where they were headed.

”Alright! You finally dared to come out!”

Qian Jin’s face was ominously dark, Lin Chen had become his bane, no matter how he trained, his martial power seemed shackled, showing no progress.

”You seized the Millennium Stone Heart Milk, defeated me in the secret realm, and snatched my rightful share from the Heavenly Pool journey, Lin Chen, I cannot rest until I avenge these grudges!”

”Heh! I admit your fighting prowess is strong, but no matter how strong, can you fend off five attackers at once?”

Qian Jin chuckled darkly, took out his token, and began contacting other members of the outsider five strongest. Suddenly, a stifling atmosphere encompassed the entire outsider circle.

As Qian Jin started gathering allies, Lin Chen and the others laughed and chatted en route. After half a day’s journey, they finally arrived at their destination, the Yin Wind Forest.

At this moment, the three were at the outskirts of the Yin Wind Forest, gazing at its depths.

Li Ping looked at Lin Chen and said:

”Lin Brother, we should part ways here. Our task is only to gather spirit grass, it shouldn’t be dangerous, besides, you’ve already driven away many beasts for us along the way, nothing unexpected should happen.”

Lin Chen nodded upon hearing this, glanced at them, and said:

”Alright, you complete your task first, while I head into the forest’s depths for mine. If you finish early, feel free to return without waiting for me!”

”Alright, Lin Brother, take care!”

After speaking, the three separated, Mo Wan’er and Li Ping started searching for the required spirit grass on the outskirts, while Lin Chen headed straight into the depths of the Yin Wind Forest.

Along the way, trees quickly receded, and the distance between Lin Chen and the Iron-tail Tiger rapidly closed.

According to the task token’s description, the Iron-tail Tiger’s lair was deep within the Yin Wind Forest, where ninth-level martial beasts appeared in abundance, even those of divine realm existed, with no outsider disciples daring to enter.

Finally, Lin Chen stopped within a dense forest, and on a nearby hillside lay a deep cave, emitting several powerful breaths, alongside occasional tiger roars.

Lin Chen held his breath and calmed his mind, lowering his aura to the minimum. On top of the trees, the dense foliage left only his eyes visible; even a martial artist scrutinizing might not detect him, let alone a beast.

Lin Chen silently waited; although facing two ninth-level martial beasts alone might not lead to defeat, he’s uncertain about other dangers within the cave, thus cannot rashly enter, opting to wait for the Iron-tail Tigers to emerge, then reveal himself and deal with them one by one.

After waiting for a while, a tiger roar echoed, Lin Chen then saw an Iron-tail Tiger stepping out of the cave.
