17 HEISE CITY
Quadrillion miles away from the Inferior Land Cultivator Realm. An old geezer cleaning the Hall of Reverence was surprised to see one of the four Statues begin to emit a bright golden light.
"This th-is the ruler of the Universe reborn?" He stammered and prostrated himself before the shining statue.
The old geezer rose from his prostration again to see one of the flaming statues,
"This exciting thing must be reported to the chairman," said the old man, standing up and turning to leave for the exit.

Heise City
Now Lin Chen had arrived outside the City Gate. Heise City, as the name implies, is a City that is more dominated by the color Black, with a faint black mist scattered throughout the city.
He entered the city after paying the fee. Inside the city could be seen many people passing by.
Lin Chen, who saw the many people in the City who were said to be full of monsters and beasts, felt strange. He also asked a passerby.
"Sorry Senior, why are so many people flocking to Heise City? Aren't there a lot of monsters here?" Lin Chen asked politely.
The older man called senior looked back, saw Lin Chen's appearance, and then replied. "Don't you know? Even though Heise City has a lot of monsters, there are also many rare Weapons and Artifacts scattered about, if you're lucky it's possible to get a Silver tier Weapon," His answer explained.
Lin Chen, who heard the answer from the person in front of him, nodded, "Then where can I look for it?" Lin Chen asked again as he cupped his hands together.
"To search for it, you need to enter through the Dimensional Portal, which opens once a week. What happens is that the Dimensional Portal will reopen the day after tomorrow." He replied.
Lin Chen nodded slightly in understanding.
"Thank you Seniors. This junior, please withdraw first." Lin Chen said respectfully and then walked away.
'The scattered treasure? Although it's straightforward for me to get High-level Weapons from the system, it wouldn't hurt if I wished to get one of those," thought Lin Chen running around the city.
Lin Chen had been around the city visiting various inns to look for a rest room, but it was a pity that he didn't get an empty room.
"Ah, looks like it's an inn, hopefully this time there will be an empty room," muttered Lin Chen dashing towards a fairly large building.
After stepping into the large building, Lin Chen walked over to a young woman behind the reception desk.
"Excuse me, is there any room left?" Lin Chen asked hastily.
"Sorry, sir, all rooms are fully booked," replied the young woman with a slight bow.
"Oh, okay. Thank you." Lin Chen replied, slightly disappointed, and then headed towards the exit.
As he was only a few steps away from the exit, Lin Chen was stopped by someone holding his shoulder.
"Son, we meet again," said a voice behind him.
Lin Chen turned his head slowly when he heard a voice that he felt was quite familiar and was surprised to find that the person who stopped him was the older man he had just met.
"Oh Senior"
"Have you got a room yet?" asked the old man while stroking his beard.
"Not yet." Lin Cheng replied, shaking his head slowly.
"How about joining us?" The older man offered to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen raised an eyebrow when he heard the words of the older man in front of him.
"We?" Lin Chen asked confusedly and tilted his body to look at the grown man and the little girl behind the older man.
"Introduce. This is my niece Song Bin and granddaughter Song Xue Yin. Meanwhile, I am Song Qingyan." He introduced himself.
"Lin Chen," replied Lin Chen, introducing himself.
Lin Chen looked at the little girl in front of him with the appearance of about 8 years old, then frowned, "Senior, did this little girl join the search for treasures too?" Lin Chen asked.
Song Xue Yin, who was called a little girl by Lin Chen, was annoyed, "Hey! I'm not a little girl, and I'm already 10 years old!" He shouted a little.
Song Bin and Song Qingyan, who saw Song Xue Yin's behavior, only chuckled.
"Even though he is young, he is very talented," Song Qingyan said.
"That's right. At the age of only 10, he is already in the Peak Body Formation Realm," said Song Bin, continuing with Song Qingyan's words.
Song Xue Yin, who felt praised, started to puff out her chest proudly.
'Peak Body Formation? Are you guys kidding? Do you two want this brat to die?' Even if this old geezer is at the *5 Heavenly Emperor Realm, isn't it still quite dangerous? Wait a moment, the Patriarch of the Blue Clouds Sect is only in the Heavenly King Realm, whereas this old geezer is in the Heavenly Emperor Realm. Are there still many sizable powers hiding." Lin Chen thought as he scanned all the realms of the people in front of him.
"However, Senior. Isn't it dangerous to take this little girl?" Lin Chen asked, a little worried.
"It's fine, I can protect her, and there are still other bodyguards. Ah, let's sit over there." Song Qingyan replied, pointing at the table next to the window.
Lin Chen nodded, following Song Qingyan to the indicated table, and ordered a drink.
The chat again took place with Lin Chen first to initiate.
"Sorry in advance Senior, it's not that I doubt your abilities. I heard that there are many monsters and some have reached the Mahayana Realm," said Lin Chen, remembering the words of the passersby.
"It is true that there are some monsters in the Mahayana Realm, but they rarely come out." Song Qingyan replied.
Lin Chen was about to repeat something when the order came. They started eating their food with the noise of the chatty little girl beside him.
After eating their food, they entered their designated room. Lin Chen entered the room and then decided to sleep first. He wanted to do meditation, but the circumstances were impossible because he had to share a room with others.
The morning is approaching like the previous days. Lin Chen decided to go around the city buying various items that would likely be of great use when entering the Dimensional Portal that led to the abode of monsters.
thump…
thump…
thump…
The sound of a punching sound piqued Lin Chen's curiosity. Lin Chen turned his head and saw a large crowd of people covering his eyes without further ado. He walked over to the crowd.
How surprised he was when he saw the old grandfather being beaten by several youths, but strangely the people around only watched with pitying eyes.
"Look, it's the Young Master of the Shark Faction," said the resident who saw a young man with short brown hair hitting an old man.
"And next to her is the Young Lady of the Pufferfish Faction," another resident pointed at the young woman with purple hair who had a smug expression.
"There is also a Young Master from the Tuna Fish Faction. I heard these 3 factions formed alliances to suppress other factions." Another resident pointed at a burly young man with a bald head.
Lin Chen, who heard the ridiculous faction names, choked back his laughter. 'What kind of name is this? Do they like seafood? What a ridiculous name,' he thought.
Seeing the increasingly violent youth hitting the old geezer, Lin Chen dashed towards an inconspicuous place and took out his Technique.
"Thunder Control Technique, Second Move. Binding Thread!"
The blue radiance emitted from Lin Chen's five fingers quickly shot into the crowd and bound the bodies of the group of youths. Instantly their bodies stiffened, and they could not move and felt a tingling sensation.
"Who is bothering me! I will kill you!" Shouted the brown-haired youth, annoyed.
"Free! Don't you know who my father is? My father is already in the Heavenly King Realm *2," The young woman said, equally annoyed.
Lin Chen, starting to get irritated from a distance, mumbled a little. "Lightning!"
Then a fairly strong stream of lightning began to flow towards them and struck strongly but not to the point of killing.
Zzzttt…
Zzett…
Aaarrghhhh…
A scream rang out in everyone's ears. The onlookers opened their eyes wide in disbelief. The children of the leaders of the three factions were electrocuted unconscious in front of all of them. And again, they saw flashes surrounding the body and then falling unconscious.
Lin Chen, who was in the distance, smiled in satisfaction with his work and then left the scene for the inn.
