Having failed to persuade the six saints, it was now impossible to persuade them again.
The opportunity has been lost; all we can do is give it our all.
Lin Yun stopped thinking about it and focused all his attention on dealing with the attacks from the nine saints.
In fact, he currently holds a relatively advantageous position in his battle against these nine saints, but dealing with them won't be a matter of a short time.
Meanwhile, he had already sensed that the aura of the True Martial Saint King was slowly declining, which was the biggest problem.
He estimated that the problem was likely the poison from the Netherworld Water within the True Martial Saint King's body, and that dragging this out would probably be detrimental to them.
The other nine saints also possessed extremely strong sensory abilities, and naturally sensed this change as well. They were greatly encouraged and attacked Lin Yun with even greater vigor.
Ten minutes... twenty minutes...
One hour... two hours...
A dozen or so saints were fighting together, including powerful saintly experts such as the True Martial Saint King and the Langya Saint.
Although the Immortal Origin Realm is very stable and powerful, it is too small. It can withstand such a powerful attack for a while, but it cannot withstand it for a long time.
The entire thirty-third heaven of the Immortal Origin Realm has been shattered beyond recognition, even affecting the dozen or so heavens below, leaving them in a terrible state. The various formations set up within these heavens have long since fallen apart.
Naturally, the commotion here had already spread throughout the entire Immortal Origin Realm.
However, the Immortal Origin Realm only has two Saint-level experts, True Martial Saint and Langya Saint. Below the Saint-level, everyone is an ant. A freak like Lin Yun, who is still in the Super Realm but can already compare to the strength of a mid-level Saint, is still very rare. The Immortal Origin Holy Land does not have one, so they have no way to intervene in this battle.
Moreover, this is a battle between Zhenwu Saint Lord, Langya Saint, and Lin Yun.
Although Lin Yun is currently the nominal Lord of Immortal Origin in the Immortal Origin Holy Land, he has only held this position for a very short time, and the cultivators of the Immortal Origin Realm do not yet have a high level of recognition for him.
While Zhenwu Saint Lord was a veteran Saint Domain expert from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, Langya Saint was also a veteran Saint Domain expert from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, leaving the cultivators of the Immortal Origin Realm unsure which side to side to lean towards.
In fact, they probably knew in their hearts which side to lean towards. Although True Martial Saint Lord did not often manage the affairs of the Immortal Origin Realm, most of the high-ranking people in the Immortal Origin Realm always knew that True Martial Saint Lord was the number one figure in the Immortal Origin Realm.
Also present were the Holy Mother and Lin Yun, the current Lord of Immortal Origin; the three stood on the same side.
On the other side, there was only one Saint Realm expert from the Immortal Origin Realm, the Langya Saint, while the others were Saints from other races, and there were quite a few of them. At a glance, one could guess that the Langya Saint had joined forces with Saints from the outside world to invade the Immortal Origin Realm.
However, these cultivators dared not intervene in this battle. They were afraid that Zhenwu Saint Monarch, Langya Saint, or Lin Yun might order them to take action. They could only convince themselves that this was an internal war among the higher-ups of the Immortal Origin Realm, and that it was not appropriate for them to get involved.
However, all of these people were watching the battle closely, and they were also concerned about the outcome.
It is very likely that this battle will change the future landscape of the Immortal Origin Holy Land. The sooner they judge the outcome, the better it may be for their future status in the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
"pity……"
Lin Yun lowered his eyes and swept across the area, his gaze piercing through layers of space, seeing countless cultivators in the Immortal Origin Realm, and he shook his head slightly in his heart.
In fact, there is another main array in the Immortal Origin Realm. When external invaders attack the Immortal Origin Realm, the main array of the Immortal Origin Realm is activated, and all cultivators in the Immortal Origin Realm can unite and each input their power into the main array.
At that time, even some powerful Saint Kings might not be a match for them; this was the Immortal Origin Holy Land's greatest trump card.
Many top powers in this universe have similar arrangements.
Unfortunately, the one who invaded the Immortal Origin Realm this time was the traitor, Sage Langya. He first destroyed the Immortal Origin Realm's main array, preventing them from using it to deal with Sage Langya and his group.
Otherwise, even if True Martial Saint Lord were poisoned, the group of Langya Saints would be no match for him.
That said, these cultivators from the Immortal Origin Realm are truly disappointing.
Although the main array of the Immortal Origin Realm was destroyed, there are still some smaller arrays. If the higher-ups of the Immortal Origin Realm can work together, they can at least protect the various layers of space in the Immortal Origin Realm from being severely damaged, if not affect the overall battle situation.
Unfortunately, those high-ranking officials in the Immortal Origin Realm failed to do so.
He gave orders, the Holy Mother gave orders, and even the True Martial Saint King gave orders, but these people did not listen properly.
That's why, in just about two hours, the Immortal Origin Realm has become like this.
"Perhaps, even if the main array of the Immortal Origin Realm hadn't been destroyed in the first place, it wouldn't have necessarily been able to do anything to the Sage of Langya and his group..." Lin Yun smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head inwardly.
He recalled the time when cultivators from the Immortal Origin Realm attacked the headquarters of Qingyun Company on Earth. Back then, the cultivators of Qingyun Company were not so weak; they all did their best to resist.
At this time, few of the cultivators and high-ranking members of the Immortal Origin Realm were willing to carry out his orders.
Lord of the Immortal Source?
At this moment, Lin Yun felt it was all a joke.
He had considered that there were problems with the management of the Immortal Origin Realm, but he hadn't expected that the management of the Immortal Origin Realm was this problematic.
His initial thought was indeed correct; it would have been better for him to create a new force himself rather than take over the Immortal Origin Realm.
Picking peaches?
Peaches aren't so easy to pick.
One wrong step and you could fall from the tree!
Back then, True Martial Saint Lord and Holy Mother promised him many benefits in order to make him the Lord of Immortal Source. And now? The Immortal Source Realm is almost completely destroyed, and the so-called blessed lands are practically nonexistent!
He figured he couldn't count on the source power accumulated over thousands of years in the Immortal Origin Realm. They might not even be able to win this battle. At that point, they'd be lucky to even survive!
As for breaking through the new heaven, he still doesn't know how to do it!
They gained nothing, yet ended up in this predicament!
"Fortunately, Qingqing and the others have already left this place..." Lin Yun thought to himself as he glanced at some spaces in the lower heavens.
Previously, based on the strength of Xia Qingqing and her group, he arranged for them to cultivate in different heavenly spaces of the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
Just as the war broke out, he gave the Holy Mother the opportunity to inform Xia Qingqing and her group, instructing them to immediately come to Earth and take everyone from their Qingyun Company away.
Furthermore, they can take as many of Earth's elites as they can.
Lin Yun knew that if they were defeated, they might not be able to care about others in order to save their own lives.
Sage Langya has been cultivating in the Immortal Origin Holy Land. When the time comes, he may not necessarily do anything to the cultivators of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, but he might take action against the humans of Earth. He knows that Sage Langya has always looked down on the humans of Earth and does not consider them to be the same kind of people as the humans of the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
"True Martial Saint Lord, we must leave this place, otherwise, as your injuries worsen, we may not be able to leave..." Lin Yun looked up at True Martial Saint Lord and quickly transmitted his voice.
Xia Qingqing and her group possessed the most advanced warship in the universe, and in two hours, they should have already traveled a considerable distance.
Furthermore, with them keeping these saints in check, their departure now should not affect the safety of Xia Qingqing and her group.
"Lin Yun, I'm sorry, I didn't keep my promise to you and I've dragged you into this..." Zhenwu Saint Monarch said with a bitter smile.
"What's the point of saying all this now? Let's leave quickly!" Lin Yun shook his head and transmitted his voice.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll stop them, you take the Holy Mother and leave!"
This is the method to break through the new heavens; remember it!
In fact, breaking through the new heavens doesn't necessarily require relying on the setting of the Immortal Origin Realm!
That's a setup that obscures the secrets of heaven, allowing many people to break through to a new heaven together!
However, if a person is strong enough, they can break through to a new level on their own, without needing that setting or a specific place... However, if a person fails to break through to a new level the first time, they will need even stronger power to do so again!
So I've been thinking of telling you this when you're stronger, it'll be safer that way!
Now, there's no need for that. Without the source power accumulated over a thousand years in the Immortal Source Realm, it would take an unknown amount of time to break through to the third level of the Super Realm. And after the Sage of Langya and the others occupy the Immortal Source Realm, they will probably try to break through the thirty-fourth heaven very soon!
You must break through the thirty-fourth heaven before them, otherwise, the thirty-fifth heaven will be even harder to break through, and you may not be able to do it. By then, their strength will be increasing, and you will have a harder time in this universe!
According to Lord Li Er, the power required to break through the new heaven at the core of the universe might be weaker!
You take the Holy Mother to the core of the universe, to the Heavenly Dao Tower. Once inside, tell the spirit of the Heavenly Dao Tower what has happened. Even if it doesn't help you, it should be able to protect you..."
Zhenwu Saint Lord transmitted his voice, and at the same time, a message about breaking through the new heaven was also sent to Lin Yun.
"True Martial Saint Lord, what do you mean by this? Aren't we going to leave together?"
Upon receiving the telepathic message from the True Martial Saint Lord, Lin Yun was greatly surprised.
Why does Zhenwu Shengjun's words sound like he's giving his last words?
“There’s no need. The poison of the Netherworld Water is difficult to remove. Once it erupts, the poisoned person’s power will continue to be lost. If we leave together, I’m afraid none of us will be able to leave in the end. Even if I leave, I will not escape losing all my power in the end, aging and dying. There’s no need for that…” Zhenwu Saint Monarch smiled bitterly and transmitted his voice to Lin Yun.
Not long ago, he was preparing to leave this universe and ascend to a higher level of space.
Full of ambition and excitement, he was about to reunite with the Dao Ancestor from beyond this universe and so many fellow disciples to cultivate together to a higher realm.
Unexpectedly, he soon fell to such a state, and the one who caused him to fall to this state was his junior brother, who had followed the Dao Ancestor to cultivate together since they were weak.
So that he could break through the primordial energy that descended from heaven and earth when the thirty-fourth heaven of this universe was broken?
He felt a bitter, self-deprecating, and ridiculous feeling.
"No, if you're going to leave, then leave together. The Holy Mother and I won't abandon you and leave alone..." Lin Yun said firmly and confidently in a telepathic message.
On the other side, Zhenwu Saint Lord felt very comforted upon receiving Lin Yun's message.
As expected, the Holy Mother and he had not misjudged Lin Yun; Lin Yun was indeed a trustworthy person.
In comparison, it's incredibly ironic that the Sage of Langya, with whom he cultivated for thousands of years, growing from weak to strong, and still being fellow disciples, would secretly harm him.
And then there are those cultivators from the Immortal Origin Realm below…
“Thousands of years ago, the Dao Ancestor entrusted the Immortal Origin Holy Land to me, but I failed to manage it well. As a result, many people in the Immortal Origin Holy Land, which seemed to always stand at the pinnacle of the universe, became restless and fraught with danger, ultimately leading to this disaster. I have no face to answer to the Dao Ancestor. Only by dying here can I…”
True Martial Saint Lord looked up at the dilapidated Immortal Origin Realm around him and slowly transmitted his voice to Lin Yun.
Thousands of years ago, when the Dao Ancestor was still alive, how glorious was the Immortal Origin Holy Land?
Now, they've fallen into such a predicament!
Thousands of years ago, when the Dao Ancestor Li Er left, he entrusted the Immortal Origin Holy Land to him, but the current situation makes him feel extremely ashamed!
He was reflecting on his actions during his battle with the Sage of Langya!
Was the Sage of Langya like this from the beginning?
Definitely not!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been chosen by Dao Ancestor Li Er!
So, did they already harbor rebellious thoughts when the Dao Ancestor left? That's unlikely!
When the Dao Ancestor left, although he was only at the Saint King level, he was no ordinary Saint King. At that time, the Langya Saint was only at the intermediate Saint level, and the difference in strength between him and the Dao Ancestor was enormous!
Even if Dao Ancestor Li Er couldn't see through the personality of the Sage of Langya, he should have sensed it roughly, and he certainly wouldn't have said such things to him when he left...
The Thirty-Fourth Heaven!
The Thirty-Fourth Heaven!
Hehe, how could the Sage of Langya know that when Dao Ancestor Li Er led everyone to break through layer after layer of new heavens, he had already calculated this matter and thought about whether this benefit could fall into the hands of the Sage of Langya?
Breaking through the thirty-fourth heaven, the energy descending from heaven and earth is extraordinary!
Everything changed... thanks to the reincarnation of Lord Li Er's friend!
Unexpectedly, the Sage of Langya had such thoughts ahead of time!
Perhaps, this is fate!
Before Dao Ancestor Li Er left, Sage Langya might not have had such thoughts, but after Dao Ancestor Li Er left... True Martial Saint Lord also felt very guilty, as he had not communicated with Sage Langya enough, which led Sage Langya to this point!
Perhaps the Sage of Langya was right; he cared too much about himself!
He promised Lin Yun benefits, one thing after another, but overlooked the fact that these were benefits that the Sage of Langya was very likely to receive...
Because he was leaving this universe, and all the benefits of this universe were no longer relevant to him, he was able to do something so generous with other people's money.
He has been focused on his cultivation and is not too concerned about his cultivation level.
His selfishness led to these results!
How could he possibly face Dao Ancestor Li Er, who had entrusted the Immortal Origin Holy Land to him?
