Chapter 836 Extreme Temptation

"There are actually such rules?" Lin Yun's expression changed slightly.

He wasn't stupid. He vaguely sensed something from the words of the True Martial Saint King. Could it be that the reason why some saints from the Immortal Origin Holy Land hadn't appeared in recent years was because of this?

Or perhaps, some saints chose to live in seclusion because of this.

Also, will the power of the laws of this universe sense the move that Zhenwu Shengjun just made?

"Yes, I first repaired the connection between the Netherworld and this universe, and then fought with those saints. I have already been sensed by the power of the laws of the universe. It won't be long before I leave this universe." True Martial Saint Monarch nodded slightly.

As he spoke, True Martial Saint looked at Lin Yun with a hint of envy. He could forget about breaking through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe, but Lin Yun had a great chance. Lin Yun's current strength far exceeded that of ordinary saints. Perhaps Lin Yun already possessed the power to break through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe.

At worst, if Lin Yun improves by one or two more levels, that will be enough.

He had received the gifts of heaven and earth when he broke through to a new heaven, and he knew very well how generous those gifts were. According to what Lord Li Er said, and the rules they had summarized earlier, the gifts bestowed by heaven and earth upon breaking through to the thirty-fourth heaven were at least several times greater than those bestowed upon breaking through to the thirty-third heaven.

Back then, he only received the blessings bestowed by heaven and earth upon breaking through the thirty-second heaven. In fact, what he received back then was not even the whole thing. In other words, the blessings bestowed by heaven and earth upon Lin Yun were at least dozens of times greater than what he received back then. How could he not envy Lin Yun?

Hearing Zhenwu Shengjun's words, Lin Yun's heart sank slightly. Zhenwu Shengjun's attitude towards them was good, and he seemed to have a good relationship with the Holy Mother. Naturally, he didn't want the other party to leave this universe so soon. But soon, he thought of another problem. His expression changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Then, when I made my move earlier, would it have been sensed by the power of the laws of this universe...?"

As he spoke, he felt extremely uneasy.

He estimated that the strength of super-strong individuals should be within the permissible range of power in this universe, because he had heard that many super-strong individuals had existed in this universe for hundreds of millions of years, and those super-strong individuals acted whenever they wanted without any restraint.

However, he was no ordinary super strong person; the strength he had previously displayed far exceeded that of an ordinary saint.

He speculated that there must be limitations to how powerful Saint-level experts could exert their power in this universe; otherwise, why hadn't any of the many Saint-level experts from the Immortal Origin Holy Land appeared in recent years?

"You don't need to worry. This strength refers to the level of power. The power of the Super Realm is unlimited in this universe. Only the power of Saint Realm experts is limited. If they don't fight frequently, a Lower Saint can stay in this universe for a maximum of one million years, a Middle Saint for a maximum of one hundred thousand years, an Upper Saint for a maximum of ten thousand years, a Peak Saint for a maximum of one thousand years, and a Lower Saint King can only stay in this universe for one hundred years..." True Martial Saint King smiled slightly and said, "This is if you don't fight frequently. If you fight frequently, you will soon be repelled by the power of the universe's laws."

"After breaking through to the Saintly Monarch realm, I have stayed in this universe for thousands of years, long past my limit. If it weren't for Lord Li Er leaving behind a concealment formation and passing on a concealment technique to me, I would have left this universe long ago. However, now that I have left the Immortal Origin Holy Land and made consecutive moves, I can no longer stay. I estimate that I will have to leave this universe in a year or two at most." After a pause, the True Martial Saint Monarch said.

"Is there no other way?" Lin Yun opened his mouth and said.

At some point, he had come to regard Zhenwu Shengjun as one of their own, and had begun to think of Zhenwu Shengjun's interests.

"Hehe, Lord Li Er once said that if I don't leave the Immortal Origin Holy Land and don't make a move, I can stay in this universe for tens of thousands of years. Once I leave the Immortal Origin Holy Land and make a move, I won't be able to stay in this universe anymore. Don't overthink it. My leaving this universe is not a bad thing. It's a new world for me to go towards a brighter future." Seeing Lin Yun say this, True Martial Saint Monarch laughed.

“Originally, I was a little worried that it would be difficult to handle the matters entrusted to me by Lord Li Er after I left, but now that you have appeared, I am not too worried.” After a pause, Zhenwu Shengjun said.

"Me?" Lin Yun asked in surprise.

In fact, he had already guessed it, because Zhenwu Shengjun had previously said that he planned to ask him to help with something, but even now he was still not quite sure what Zhenwu Shengjun planned to ask him to do.

"Before Lord Li Er appeared, Earth was just an ordinary planet. After Lord Li Er appeared, the qualities and environment of Earth's creatures changed. Whether you admit it or not, you have benefited from Lord Li Er's kindness in this respect," Zhenwu Shengjun said with a smile to Lin Yun.

"Yes," Lin Yun nodded.

He was born in Xianyuan County on Earth, which is said to be the birthplace of the Taoist patriarch. He had heard many legends about the Taoist patriarch and admired him greatly. In addition, due to his connection with the Holy Mother, he felt indebted to her.

"As far as I know, when you were on Earth, you had a conflict with some people from the lower realms of the Immortal Origin Holy Land. At that time, your strength was relatively weak. If it weren't for the Holy Mother's intervention, your fate would have been precarious. Do you accept this favor?" True Martial Saint Lord asked again.

"The Holy Mother's love is as heavy as Mount Tai, and Lin Yun naturally accepts it," Lin Yun nodded again.

"As far as I know, when you entered the Star Sea, you encountered some powerful enemies. It was because you came from the Immortal Origin Holy Land that you were able to escape danger several times. Do you accept this favor?" True Martial Saint Monarch nodded.

"Yes." Lin Yun nodded again.

"That's good. I hope that after I leave, you will take charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land to repay these favors. Are you willing?" True Martial Saint Monarch clapped his hands and laughed.

"What? You want me to take charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land to repay these favors?" Lin Yun's eyes widened, almost thinking he had misheard.

What kind of operating model is this? Is this how you repay favors?

"Of course, you're not only in charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, but you also have the task of finding the reincarnation of Lord Li Er's friend. Actually, you don't need to search for him much; you just need to protect him when you find his whereabouts," True Martial Saint Lord said with a smile.

“This…” Lin Yun hesitated.

He had no objection to helping Zhenwu Saint King, or the Holy Mother, or that Dao Ancestor do some things. However, he knew nothing about the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Was it really a good idea for him to agree to let Zhenwu Saint King take charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land?

"Actually, the Holy Lord doesn't need me to take charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Holy Mother, the Holy Lord has saved Lin Yun several times, and Lin Yun has also received many favors from the Dao Ancestor. Since you've already asked, all you need to do is protect the reincarnation of the Dao Ancestor's friend. As long as Lin Yun hears about his whereabouts, he will naturally do whatever it takes." After a moment, Lin Yun cupped his hands and said.

He had been confused by the words of the True Martial Saint King and subconsciously thought that only by taking charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land could one accept this mission. But upon closer reflection, he realized that he could accept the mission without taking charge of the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

"Have you thought this through? The Immortal Origin Holy Land is no ordinary force. It contains many blessed lands and grotto-heavens, the largest of which is the Thirty-Three Heavens, which concentrates the essence of this universe. Its environment far surpasses that of the higher levels of the Heavenly Dao Tower!" True Martial Saint Monarch gave Lin Yun a deep look and said.

Lin Yun was astonished. He knew very well how good the cultivation environment was in the upper levels of the Heavenly Dao Tower. Could the environment of the Immortal Origin Holy Land even surpass that? This made him realize that it was indeed an extraordinary place!

Leaving aside himself, if he were to cultivate in that kind of environment for a long time, he would definitely make rapid progress. Even the people around him, if they were to cultivate in that kind of environment for a long time, would definitely make great progress every day, and the benefits would be enormous.

However, Lin Yun quickly put these thoughts aside and shook his head slightly, saying, "I've thought it through. After thousands of years of development, the Immortal Origin Holy Land should have its own system. I don't want to get involved in such a system easily."

He thought of Li Chu, the envoy from the Immortal Origin Holy Land. He guessed that he must have affected the other party's interests in some way to make the other party scheme against him.

If he were to take control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, who knows how many people's interests would be affected, and how much turmoil would it cause? The Immortal Origin Holy Land is not a simple existence. It contains various methods left behind by the Dao Ancestor, also known as the extraterrestrial powerhouse Li Er, as well as a powerhouse like the True Martial Saint Monarch. Who knows what else it holds...

He learned from Mo Dan that the Holy Mother's position in the Immortal Origin Holy Land was not very stable. If the True Martial Saint King, with his strength, were to side with the Holy Mother, then it was clear that the Immortal Origin Holy Land would have at least one opposing force that was not weak.

He didn't want to get involved rashly.

Therefore, he was willing to give up the great temptation of controlling the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

"If you agree to take control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, I can give you a gift that will at least raise your current strength by another level. You should know that although the Bloodthirsty Sword in your hand can help you increase your strength quickly, it requires killing a large number of powerful individuals. With your current strength, it's estimated that you won't be able to increase your strength quickly without killing one or two Saints, and Saints are not so easy to kill," True Martial Saint Monarch said with a smile.

Lin Yun's heart skipped a beat at Zhenwu Shengjun's words.

It must be said that this True Martial Saint King is very good at tempting people. He first tempts people with a powerful force, saying that as long as they agree, they will immediately become a person second only to one person, above tens of millions of people, and can run rampant throughout the entire universe. It has to be said that this is a great temptation.

Then, he was tempted by a high-level blessed land. If he agreed, not only could he quickly improve his strength, but the people around him could also improve their strength at an astonishing rate.

When he refused, they finally resorted to directly tempting him with a boost to his strength, and the temptation was astonishing.

The combination of these three temptations was so alluring that it made Lin Yun's heart clench.

"No need, no need, I'm perfectly fine now. If you need any help, just let me know." Finally, Lin Yun took a deep breath and waved his hand.

He decided to stick to his principles.

"Haha, as expected of someone chosen by the Holy Mother. With that, I am even more at ease entrusting the Immortal Origin Holy Land to you." However, upon hearing Lin Yun's words, True Martial Saint Lord laughed loudly.

"Really, there's no need. Even if the Holy Lord leaves this universe, there should be many suitable people to manage the Immortal Origin Holy Land. The Holy Lord really doesn't need to hand over the Immortal Origin Holy Land to me." Lin Yun smiled wryly and waved his hand again.

“I know why you don’t want to take over the Immortal Origin Holy Land. The Immortal Origin Holy Land now is not the same as it was thousands of years ago. I’m really worried about leaving. I’ve analyzed it, and you are the most suitable person to take over the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Don’t refuse anymore, otherwise, the Immortal Origin Holy Land may become an obstacle to your mission. For this reason alone, you must take over the Immortal Origin Holy Land.” True Martial Saint Monarch shook his head and said.

"Huh?" Lin Yun was taken aback.

"Are there any other Saint Realm experts in the Immortal Origin Holy Land..." Lin Yun hesitated for a moment before asking.

"There is another superior saint in the Immortal Origin Holy Land who has been in seclusion." True Martial Saint Monarch nodded slightly and said calmly.

There wasn't much evaluation of that superior saint in his words, but there seemed to be a strange implication in his tone.

Think about it carefully. Even a lower-level Saint King can only stay in this universe for a maximum of one hundred years, while a higher-level Saint can stay in this universe for a maximum of ten thousand years.

The strength of a superior saint is not weak either. This time, however, the opponent did not make a move. Instead, it was True Martial Saint who made the move. Something seems amiss.

"A superior saint..."

Lin Yun's expression changed slightly.

He vaguely guessed that this powerful figure was very likely the source of his biggest conflict with the Immortal Origin Holy Land.

"Your Majesty, could you tell me how many lower-level saints a superior saint can deal with?" Lin Yun thought for a moment and asked again.

“Under normal circumstances, a mid-level Saint can deal with two or three low-level Saints, a high-level Saint can deal with two or three mid-level Saints, and a high-level Saint can deal with six or seven low-level Saints at the same time. If they were to deal with them one by one, the number would be even greater…” True Martial Saint Monarch smiled slightly and said.

“I see…” Lin Yun frowned.

He wields the Bloodthirsty Sword and can deal with about three lower-level Saints at the same time. This means that his strength is only equivalent to that of a mid-level Saint, at most slightly stronger than other mid-level Saints.

One superior saint can deal with two or three intermediate saints...

His strength is quite different from that of a superior saint!

In addition, the other party is a Saint Realm expert from the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Who knows if they have any other tricks up their sleeve?

For example, the three major human families all possess magical artifacts that can influence the souls of saints. Does that superior saint from the Immortal Origin Holy Land possess one?

The three major families' magical treasures were of a lower grade, so the Bloodthirsty Sword could withstand their power. But what if that superior saint from the Immortal Origin Holy Land possessed a magical treasure of a higher grade, and the Bloodthirsty Sword couldn't withstand its power?

After all, the Bloodthirsty Sword is only at the fourth level of the Super Realm, which is too low a level!

I'm afraid that once he clashes with the other party, he'll be at their mercy!

“If your strength increases by another level, you can be compared with the strength of a superior saint!” At this moment, True Martial Saint King spoke.

Lin Yun's expression changed slightly.

Temptation...

This True Martial Saint Lord is tempting him again!

"If you agree to take control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, I will teach you how to break through the new heaven. With your strength, you might be able to break through the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe. At that time, you will receive the blessings of heaven and earth, and breaking through to the Saint Realm will be a piece of cake. Afterwards, your vast foundation will allow your strength to continue to improve at an extremely fast pace. Before long, it will not be difficult for you to even reach the Saint King Realm." At this moment, the True Martial Saint King spoke again.

"The realm of a saint! The realm of a saintly ruler!" Lin Yun gasped.

This True Martial Saint Lord really went to great lengths to tempt him!
