Chapter 2479: Chapter 2480: Burning Bones

The words of the Green Elder plunged everyone nearby into confusion once again, wondering how exactly to solve this problem.

So, everyone stood up, looking at the Green Elder in front of them, hoping he could provide a definite answer. After all, he only spoke halfway, and they couldn’t discern the method hidden behind his words.

The Green Elder merely smiled faintly and slowly turned around to look at them.

"I have something in my hand called Burning Bones. It’s a special poison. Once it’s put into the dragon vein and then merges into the boy’s body, he’ll wish for death over life."

Upon hearing this, a sly grin appeared on everyone’s faces.

"No matter how powerful that brat is, what’s the use? He’ll still fall into our hands today."

"When the time comes, follow the plan. You must adhere to my arrangements, got it?"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded firmly, agreeing without saying much more. Just then, an eerie sound of footsteps came from outside.

"Why are you all still wasting time here? Hurry up and awaken him. Kuang Tian is about to revive."

Upon hearing this, they all wore faint smiles, then opened the door and stepped outside. Shortly after, they went to the room where Lin Chen was.

"Nephew, have you made enough preparations? We are about to awaken the sleeping power within you fully."

Lin Chen looked up at them and then nodded firmly after a moment, fully prepared.

"In that case, I’ll leave it to you all."

On the surface, Lin Chen seemed polite to these people, but internally, he felt no goodwill towards them.

He had a deep understanding and experience of their malicious hearts.

"Well then, young brother, please come with us to the Tianshan Stone Forest."

The Tianshan Stone Forest gathers the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon. Only there can the power that once slept be fully awakened.

Lin Chen stood up and followed them outside.

Although Lin Chen knew these people might not genuinely want to awaken his power, he still thought it best to follow their arrangements.

Before long, the group arrived at the Tianshan Stone Forest, where the stones were towering and majestic, piercing the sky, exceptionally grand and magnificent.

The Tianshan Stone Forest has always been a natural landmark, and soon they reached the very center where a grinding wheel was.

"Nephew, please sit on that big wooden plaque now. We will awaken the power within you."

Everyone wore a sinister smile, and once the power within him was truly awakened, Lin Chen’s death wouldn’t be far off.

The Green Tianshan Elder was inwardly pleased. Initially, he was worried that his plan might go wrong, but now it seemed this guy was far less formidable than he imagined.

The Green Tianshan Elder extended his right hand, bringing out the dragon vein, which shone with a dazzling golden light under the sunlight, too bright to look at directly.

"Nephew, do you see it? This is the legendary dragon vein, containing the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon, incredibly powerful."

Lin Chen looked at the dragon vein in his hand, eyes calm, showing no sign of greed.

This impressed the Tianshan Elders, who were somewhat astonished by the young man’s indifference to the legendary dragon vein.

Such audacity at a young age was indeed remarkable.

So, the elders channeled all their strength into the dragon vein, inching it closer to Ling Chen’s neck.

The Green Tianshan Elder had already injected something from his body into the dragon vein, which now carried deadly poison.

But the poison, Burning Bones, wouldn’t act immediately; instead, it would slowly transform, becoming incurable when it finally struck, leading inevitably to death, beyond the help of even a miracle healer.

As they watched the dragon vein getting closer to Ling Chen’s neck, their eyes filled with arrogance, but just before they could place it, he stood up suddenly.

The elders were somewhat astonished and surprised, unclear why the youth changed his mind suddenly.

"What are you doing? Sit down quickly; we can’t let this fail now."

Lin Chen slowly turned to look at them, his heart clearly angry. How did they take him for?

Did they think they could use him so easily with such a simple trick? How foolish.

"Did you really think such a simple trick could take me down? Don’t even think about it."

Lin Chen’s words left the people around him puzzled, not understanding why he just said this, as it wasn’t clear what he meant.

"Young brother, what do you mean by this? We are helping you awaken your power."

Lin Chen didn’t know exactly how these people intended to deal with him, but instinct told him they harbored ill intentions.

"Maybe you think I’m just a naïve boy you can easily manipulate, but if you really think that, you’re underestimating me."

Lin Chen’s calm words were met with a collective gasp from those around him, who looked at him with growing concern.

It seemed they had indeed underestimated this young man.

Lin Chen slowly stood up, his eyes burning with rage.

"Don’t think I don’t know you have tampered with this dragon vein."

Lin Chen looked at the dragon vein in the Green Tianshan Elder’s hand, clenching his fists tightly. How dare they scheme against him behind his back?

The Tianshan Elders, wearing a feigned smile, looked at Lin Chen with curiosity. Why did he say this?

In other words, how did he find out?
