In fact, the reason why Lin Jinglong can manipulate the power of the Heavenly Dao so skillfully is that he has already reached the pinnacle of his abilities.

Naturally, it was also thanks to Shen Ping's guidance.

After all, this cultivator from ancient times was once one of the competitors in the Heavenly Tribulation, although at the beginning, he was defeated by his old friend.

This led to his downfall and utter despair.

At this moment, Shen Ping looked at Lin Jinglong, who was continuing to receive the infusion of purple-gold spiritual energy, and his eyes also showed a complicated expression.

"This kid's physique is becoming more and more like that guy's from back then, and his bloodline..."

Why are they so similar?

The sound of him muttering to himself.

Lin Jinglong overheard it as well.

Lin Jinglong opened his eyes again.

He looked at Shen Ping with curiosity and asked the question that had been on his mind all along: the ancient mysterious expert who invented the Supreme Body Forging Technique and pioneered the path of martial arts.

Is there a blood connection between them?

"I wonder if Senior Shen could tell me if the person who created the Supreme Body Forging Technique back then was surnamed Lin?"

"His name is Lin Wudi!"

Shen Ping gave Lin Jinglong a deep look and said.

Lin Jinglong understood; his guess had been partially confirmed. The source of the Lin family's lineage might be that ancestor named Lin Wudi.

Shen Ping chuckled.

"I am almost certain that, with your bloodline talent, you are most likely a descendant of Lin Wudi, after all, you two are just too similar."

Lin Jinglong nodded.

"I wonder if Patriarch Lin, who pioneered the path of martial arts, survived to the end in the subsequent battle for the Heavenly Dao?"

Lin Jinglong had another idea.

When he tried to ask Shen Ping, the other party just shook his head repeatedly. After all, even Shen Ping had been killed by Lin Wudi at the very beginning.

"However, I can guarantee that with his talent, even if he is not the final winner, he will definitely be one of the top cultivators of that year."

Shen Ping was quite certain about this.

By this time, Lin Jinglong's supreme physique had finally been tempered, although he encountered some troubles on the path of cultivation to the Dao Integration Realm.

Because he tamed the two strands of heavenly secrets on his own.

It is no longer possible to merge with the Heavenly Dao again.

It's even more of a loss than a gain!

Therefore, this path is no longer viable, and we can only think of other solutions in the future.

His path in martial arts, however, has been remarkably smooth.

After receiving guidance from Shen Ping, one of the few practitioners of the Supreme Body Tempering Technique from years ago, he finally succeeded in breaking through.

"Thank you for passing on the complete Supreme Body Tempering Technique to me, senior."

"It's just returning it to its rightful owner. After all, you are a descendant of Lin Wudi, and this Supreme Body Tempering Technique was taught to me by him."

Shen Ping looked at Lin Jinglong with a complicated expression.

After giving Lin Jinglong guidance twice and revealing a great deal of ancient secrets, including the truth about the severing of the connection between heaven and earth, Shen Ping's Yin spirit body seemed to gradually become thinner.

He himself was aware of this.

"senior……"

Lin Jinglong looked at him with some surprise.

Logically speaking, given Shen Ping's Dao Integration Supreme Realm back then, surviving in the Yin Spirit state should have been a piece of cake.

But he seemed to be suicidal.

The other party waved his hand and said calmly, "For thousands of years, the Heavenly Dao has been hidden, and it has also hidden my wandering soul into the darkness. Now that the Heavenly Dao has been restored, and I have returned again, I should walk the original path of demise."

Will it disappear?

Lin Jinglong shook his head.

“Since you have helped me, I cannot bear to see you perish. If you wish to pursue the path of Yin Spirit cultivation, I can offer you some incense.”

"Never mind."

Shen Ping simply waved his hand.

He looked at Lin Jinglong with a complicated expression.

"The reason I died at Lin Wudi's hands was because I was too greedy and my mind was bewitched by the temptation of the Heavenly Secret. I tried to steal the Heavenly Secret from him, and it was my destiny to die at his hands."

"And he even built a grave for me."

"I have no face to live in this world anymore."

Lin Jinglong never expected such a cause and effect. He thought it was just a fair competition, and that Shen Ping would lose in the end. It turned out that he had launched a sneak attack first.

"That's right. In this battle for the Heavenly Dao, there is only one winner. With the talent of that invincible ancestor, Shen Ping said that he was destined to be among the top few. If he didn't make a move at the beginning, he would have no choice but to admit defeat in the future."

"Since he is unwilling to admit defeat, the only option is to launch a surprise attack before the strength of both sides has fully diverged."

"Even so, we still lost."

Lin Jinglong clicked his tongue in amazement.

Shen Ping is a Supreme Being who has attained the Dao.

They could be considered strong back then.

Did they really lose so badly?

He originally wanted to persuade Shen Ping to let his spirit remain in this world, even if he didn't want to live anymore, so that he could tell him about those things from back then.

Unfortunately, Shen Ping had long since lost interest in worldly affairs.

Lin Jinglong was only given a few pointers out of a sense of fate and because of his bloodline.

He soon disappeared into this secret treasure.

It was scattered by the wind.

"Now that the Heavenly Dao has been restored, perhaps Senior Shen can be reincarnated again and have the opportunity to be an ordinary person in his next life."

Lin Jinglong placed three incense sticks on the grave.

He then left the secret place.

After going outside, I saw a group of people surrounding me.

Master Yunxian quickly said, "Quick, chase after him! That bastard has escaped!"

"Who ran away?"
