Augustine looked at Craneshadow and said after a while, "Since Lord Craneshadow is here, then we won't fight today. However, the matter between Lin Zhen and me isn't over yet."
Augustine then looked at Lin Zhen, "Lin Zhen, you first expelled Li Nian from Sky Square City, then came to my Sky Flame City to kill people. These things aren't over yet. Your son is now in my hands. I won't hand him over to you, unless …"
Lin Zhen also removed the Black Hole Beast state. His body was covered in wounds.
He knew very well that it was impossible for him to win today's battle. Although he had done well to challenge the fifth place with the 98th rank, the main reason he could persist was the Divine Thunder of Destruction. Without it, he wouldn't have the slightest hope of winning.
Perhaps he really should talk to Augustine about the terms.
"Unless what?"
"Lin Zhen, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Although we won't fight today, we have to use another method to determine the winner. The challenge is about to begin. If you can surpass me in the final ranking, you can take your son away. Otherwise, he will be a miner here for the rest of his life!"
After that, Augustine looked at Craneshadow in the water mirror, "Craneshadow, this is what I mean. What do you think?"
Craneshadow smiled, "That's something between you two, but I think it's feasible."
Craneshadow looked at Lin Zhen again, "Lin Zhen, what do you think?"
Lin Zhen took a deep breath. He knew that it was impossible to save his son today. He had to take it slow.
"Sure, but I have a request. That is, you must guarantee my son's safety. He can't be tortured. He can only be locked up. Moreover, I can see his situation through the Dimensional Universe at any time. Otherwise, it's against the rules."
Craneshadow looked at Augustine again, "Can you agree to Lin Zhen's condition?"
Augustine's arm gradually grew back. He glared at Lin Zhen fiercely. "I'm not going to make things difficult for a little brat. Lin Zhen, if you have the ability, then surpass me in the Challenge Competition. Otherwise … your son is finished!"
After saying that, Augustine waved his hand and appeared in the cabin of the aircraft.
Soon, the captain of the Divine Stone Stage added Lin Zhen and showed the situation of Lin An to Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen and Lin An could not directly communicate with each other through a third party. Lin Zhen could only watch from afar.
Augustine didn't say anything else. With a wave of his hand, the aircraft activated and headed straight for Heaven Flame City.
Craneshadow's matter was over, and he disappeared from the water mirror.
Bai Yunyan ran to Lin Zhen's side. First, she checked on Lin Zhen's injuries. When she felt that Lin Zhen was fine, Bai Yunyan gave Lin Zhen a thumbs up.
"Brother! You can actually fight Augustine to a draw. There aren't many people I admire in my life, and now you are one of them. "
Lin Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "It's not a draw. If the fight had continued, I would have died without a doubt, but Augustine might not have died."
"I don't think so. Although you're at a disadvantage, to be able to achieve such a result as a Celestial against a Divine Stone expert is already a victory. Didn't you see how angry Augustine was when he left? He's probably never been in such a sorry state in his life," Yang Kai said.
Lin Zhen didn't say anything. This was the most difficult battle for him. Although there was only a difference of one realm between them, Augustine's strength made Lin Zhen very vigilant.
Right now, Lin Zhen was still no match for him. Both of them knew this, which was why Augustine had proposed such a harsh condition.
There was still a month before the challenge began. Lin Zhen was only ranked 98th. If he wanted to break through and surpass Augustine, it would be a very difficult process.
However, Lin Zhen had no choice. No matter what, he had to do this to save Lin An.
"Brother Bai, let's go to Skyfire City and have a look."
"Okay, let's go to Skyfire City. Brother, your task is very difficult."
"No matter how difficult it is, I will try my best and strive to complete it!"
"Don't worry. With Master Craneshadow as a witness, Augustine won't dare to play any tricks. As long as you can defeat him in the challenge, everything will be solved."
*****
Not many people knew about the battle between Lin Zhen and Augustine. Lin Zhen wouldn't talk about it, and neither would Bai Yunyan.
As for Augustine, he wouldn't talk about it either. As the fifth ranked in the Hall of the Exalted, he couldn't take down Lin Zhen easily. Even if he had the advantage, the battle couldn't be considered a victory.
Just like that, Lin Zhen and Bai Yunyan quietly arrived at Sky Fire City.
Skyfire City was located on a continent.
It was said that this continent had been around for countless years and was formed after the universe exploded.
The density of the continent was very high. No plants grew here because not only could plants not withstand the high temperature here, they couldn't even break through the soil layer and germinate.
The continent was called the Tian Chu Continent. Not only was it one of the main mining areas, but it was also the main battlefield of the Skyfire War.
Every time the Skyfire War started, the Hall of the Exalted powerhouses of the two races would go to the Tian Chu Continent and attack each other.
This incomparably sturdy continent was not broken even after numerous battles between the Hall of the Exalted powerhouses. It was obvious that it was different.
Skyfire City was located in the center of the Tian Chu Continent. It was a fiery red city, but this fiery red color didn't mean that it was scorching hot. These red walls were actually used for fireproofing so that the people in the city could live comfortably without being attacked by the heat waves.
This was the strangest city Lin Zhen had ever seen. This was because the surface races and the endless races could coexist peacefully in the city.
If it wasn't for the fact that this was the gathering place of the two races, there was no doubt that this was a very developed city.
The technology here was very advanced. With the protection of the city walls and array formations, Skyfire City's climate was fresh and pleasant. High-tech items could be seen everywhere, far surpassing any city Lin Zhen had ever seen.
Moreover, the residents of Skyfire City were all extremely strong. As Lin Zhen arrived, he discovered that those that could live in the city were all at the Divine Transformation realm.
Those miners might have a lower boundary, but they couldn't be considered residents of Skyfire City.
In order to obtain the qualifications to live in Skyfire City, one first had to be at the Divine Transformation realm.
After arriving here, Lin Zhen felt that everything was strange and novel. Moreover, there were many goods that he couldn't see in the surface races' cities.
"Hey! Brat, watch where you're going! "
With the sound of rumbling footsteps, several tall stone giants passed by. As they passed by Lin Zhen, they glanced at him with contempt.
Lin Zhen could casually kill these Divine World realm stone giants, but Lin Zhen certainly wouldn't do so.
Bai Yunyan looked at Lin Zhen's indifferent expression and couldn't help but say, "Brother, your self-restraint is quite good."
"Haha! I can't say it's good, but it's not enough to bicker with these people. "
"That's right. There are many things that aren't worth bickering over, but when it's time to attack, you can't be soft."
"Old Brother Bai, introduce Skyfire City to me. You should have a good understanding of this place."
"I don't know too much, but I've been here before so I know a bit. Skyfire City is the only city in the entire Primordial World where the surface races and endless races live together. There are rich mineral resources here as well as many goods from both races. But, compared to other cities with 10 billion people, Skyfire City's population is less than 500 million. It can be considered a small city.
"Although the population isn't great, all of them are elites. Only those at the Divine Transformation realm can apply to become permanent residents. Because their cultivation is too low, they cannot survive in Skyfire Galaxy. Moreover, once a war breaks out in Skyfire City, these residents can quickly evacuate."
Lin Zhen thought for a moment. "What about the currency? What is the currency here? "
"The currency of Skyfire City can be endless coins or divine stones. This is the only place where divine stones can be exchanged."
"I want to buy some beast god blood. Where is the best place to buy it?"
Lin Zhen was still thinking about cultivation. There was still a month before the start of the challenge, but with his time deceleration, this one month was equivalent to two years. If he used it well, he could do many things.
After the battle with Augustine, Lin Zhen saw that he was still lacking. He needed more power.
Moreover, this was related to his son's safety. Lin Zhen had no reason to not work hard.
"Beast god blood can be bought here. How about this, let's go to a place where we can find someone to reserve it. It's much more convenient than blindly looking for it."
"Oh! Where is it? "
"Chaos Bar!"
"Bar?"
Bai Yunyan laughed. "Don't underestimate this bar. It's the place with the most experts below the god level in the entire Primordial Realm. The Hall of the Exalted powerhouses, would-be Hall of the Exalted, and Regal Kings who come to Skyfire City all like to drink here.
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
"Haha! Don't say that. I have my own selfish motives. You're a rich man. Chaos Bar is expensive. If I follow you, I can drink some good wine for free. Tsk tsk! I haven't tasted the Rainbow Wine in that bar for tens of millions of years. I really miss it. "
Under Bai Yunyan's lead, the two of them walked through streets and alleys. After more than an hour, they arrived at the entrance of a bar.
The bar was about a thousand square meters. It had dark gold walls and a silver door. It gave off a feeling of a combination of classical and modern.
The words "Chaos Bar" were bold and powerful. It seemed to contain some kind of profound law within.
Two beautiful women stood in front of the door. When they saw Bai Yunyan and Lin Zhen arrive, they immediately bowed and greeted them.
"Welcome Bai Yunyan and Lin Zhen, two Hall of Fame powerhouses, to Chaos Bar!"
Lin Zhen was stunned for a moment. These two girls were too unique.
One was wearing a white robe with pure white wings behind her. She was actually an angel!
The other was wearing black tights that outlined her hot and sexy figure. She had pointy ears and a tail behind her. She was actually a woman from the Demon Tribe!
Even with Lin Zhen's experience, this was the first time he had seen an angel and a demon combination.
"Haha! Are you shocked? This is the specialty of Chaos Bar. It serves both surface races and endless races. Moreover, the ladies here know every powerhouse above the King level. As long as they're at the King level, they'll be able to recognize them. It's impossible to hide. "
"Indeed, it's too unique."
