That special resource could only raise his realm by one level, but it could not raise the realm of the Langya Saint by one level.
It makes sense when you think about it; he's only at the second level of the Super Realm, and the next level up is only the third level of the Super Realm.
The Sage of Langya is at the level of a superior sage, and above that is the peak sage.
The resources required for the two are vastly different.
However, True Martial Saint King only said that to get him to agree to take over the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
Therefore, his conflict with the Sage of Langya was not significant; his conflict was with Li Chu. Perhaps Li Chu also wanted to obtain that special resource?
Perhaps, because Li Chu was the disciple of the Sage of Langya, and Li Chu had schemed against him but ultimately suffered a loss, the Sage of Langya disliked him and refused to accept him as the Lord of Immortal Source.
Thinking about this, everything seemed to start to make sense.
"Master!!"
Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Li Chu immediately looked at the Sage of Langya and asked nervously.
He had just witnessed Lin Yun's strength, which was only slightly inferior to his master, the Sage of Langya. If his master, the Sage of Langya, hadn't intervened, he would have been doomed.
He has cultivated to his current level in his three hundred years of life, and his future is limitless, so naturally he doesn't want to die.
At this moment, he felt extremely regretful. If he had known that Lin Yun was so powerful now, he would not have schemed against Lin Yun in the first place. Or, he should have gone all out to deal with Lin Yun from the beginning and made sure that Lin Yun died without a burial place.
"You pinned the blame on me earlier, and now you're pinning it on my disciple. You, the Lord of Immortal Origin, are truly domineering! But your domineering ways won't apply to me, Langya. As for my disciple's conduct, I, as his master, will handle it. You, the Lord of Immortal Origin, need not worry about it!" The Sage of Langya said with a cold smile.
As he spoke, the Sage of Langya turned around, leaving behind a single sentence.
"I heard you come from the old site of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, and that some of your people are still there? Don't push me to my limits, or I won't hesitate to annihilate the old site of the Immortal Origin Holy Land!"
The Sage of Langya's voice was calm, yet it contained an extreme chill.
There is no doubt that if Lin Yun continues to cause trouble, he will really destroy the earth.
"Buzz!"
A spatial fluctuation arose, and the Sage of Langya and Li Chu disappeared.
"hateful!"
Lin Yun clenched his fists, his face grim.
The words of the Sage of Langya made him stop stopping the Sage of Langya from leaving with Li Chu.
Earth is his home. He is only in his thirties and has only been away from Earth for a little over ten years. Earth still holds many ties for him. The Sage of Langya can threaten him with the life or death of Earth, but he cannot be indifferent to it.
"Lin Yun, the Sage of Langya also comes from Earth. What he said just now was probably just talk. Don't rush things. You have great potential. Before long, your strength will surpass that of the Sage of Langya. At that time, he shouldn't be like this anymore." The Holy Mother stepped forward, sighed slightly, and said.
Ultimately, this is a world where the strong are respected. Right now, Lin Yun's strength is inferior to that of the Langya Saint, and it's understandable that the Langya Saint is arrogant and doesn't respect Lin Yun. Once Lin Yun's strength surpasses that of the Langya Saint, the Langya Saint will naturally change his ways.
It's not necessarily intentional, but rather a natural change.
"I understand." Lin Yun nodded expressionlessly.
Whether it was just talk or not, only the Sage of Langya knew the truth, and he didn't want to speculate on it.
call!
As they spoke, Lin Yun's figure disappeared, having returned to the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
Lin Yun planned to deal with the matter of the Immortal Origin Holy Land as soon as possible, and then return to Earth to take a look. On the one hand, the words of the Sage of Langya made him worry about Earth, not because he was afraid that the Sage of Langya would take action against Earth.
Rather, he has been away from Earth for over a decade. When he left, Earth was in chaos, and it's unknown whether things have calmed down now.
From the Holy Mother, he learned that in recent years, she had been cultivating in the thirty-third heaven of the Immortal Origin Holy Land. One day in the thirty-third heaven is equivalent to one year on Earth. Although the Holy Mother had taken care of Earth to some extent, due to this time difference, there must have been some aspects that she couldn't take care of.
On the other hand, there's still the matter of Xiaobai and Xiaolan inside the Bloodthirsty Sword. Zhenwu Shengjun said that it's best to deal with Xiaobai and Xiaolan's situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, once Xiaobai and Xiaolan are completely integrated with the Bloodthirsty Sword, even with the help of the two Yin-Yang Trees that gave birth to them, it might not be possible to free them from the Bloodthirsty Sword.
"We must improve Lin Yun's strength as soon as possible..." the Holy Mother said softly, looking at the place where Lin Yun had left.
The True Martial Saint Lord will soon leave this universe. It would be best to improve Lin Yun's strength before the True Martial Saint Lord leaves. Otherwise, if Lin Yun's strength is not as good as that of the Langya Saint, and there is no True Martial Saint Lord to suppress him, she is afraid that more trouble will arise.
What had just happened intensified her worries.
...
"What happened...?"
"Such a huge tremor, it seems to have affected the entire universe?"
Is this the end of the world?
The moment the universe and the Netherworld connected, many powerful cultivators across the universe were shocked.
They looked up at the sky, but they didn't know where the tremor came from; they only felt it coming from all directions.
Only some cultivators who participated in the Heavenly Dao Fruit Competition vaguely recalled the words left behind by True Martial Saint Lord when he left the competition site.
The three top super powers, Huoshi, Aolai, and the Immortal Human Race, took away the magical artifacts that suppressed the Netherworld and the connection point between this universe. That connection point has collapsed, and this universe is about to descend into chaos.
At the time, because this statement was left by the True Martial Saint Lord, some cultivators took it very seriously. However, some cultivators believed that this was because the three top super powers of the human race had offended the Immortal Origin Holy Land. They thought that the True Martial Saint Lord's statement was actually meant to sow discord among the three top super powers of the human race, causing many forces to hate them. They believed that the True Martial Saint Lord was just exaggerating.
However, they no longer believe this is an exaggeration; the commotion that shook the entire universe and made various parts of the universe feel like the end of the world was absolutely enormous.
"Damn it! The three great families of Huoshi, Aolai, and Yongsheng!"
"It's all their fault that this universe is in such a dangerous situation!"
"Countless lives have been lost; the Huoshi, Aolai, and Yongsheng families are unforgivable!"
Some practitioners were very angry.
Because of this commotion, the family power of some of them was also greatly damaged. Various formations collapsed, various planets and even stars collapsed, and various subordinates and clansmen perished. These losses on the surface alone were considerable, not to mention the intangible losses.
Some cultivators who suffered no losses were also afraid that this chaos would bring them danger, and naturally they also hated the Huoshi and Aolai families for bringing about this great disaster that affected the entire universe.
A mysterious place.
The nine Saints who attacked Lin Yun earlier are discussing matters here.
The absolute suppression exerted by the True Martial Saint Lord on them terrified them and made their understanding of the Saint Realm even more blurred.
They gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
"The strength that True Martial Saint Lord displayed when he attacked us earlier is undeniable; he is very powerful. However, he ultimately did not kill us. Whether it was because he disdained to kill us, did not want to kill us, or was unable to kill us, is a very important question..."
"Although the True Martial Saint Lord exerts strong pressure on us, if we scatter and flee, it should be impossible for him to kill us all. Therefore, I believe the True Martial Saint Lord doesn't want to offend us to death..."
"If that's the case, then we won't be completely powerless against the True Martial Saint King..."
"I'm afraid he might not even bother killing us, in which case his strength would be terrifying beyond measure... But if that's the case, that would be good. He didn't kill us before, so it's unlikely he'll do it again. As long as we don't provoke him or the people from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, we'll be fine... On the contrary, if he was unable to kill us all at the time, we would be in the most danger. We need to be careful that he attacks us one by one, eliminating us one by one..."
The nine sages discussed the matter with great concern.
This discussion lasted for a long time. Before a conclusion was reached, they dared not separate, fearing that the True Martial Saint Lord would divide and attack them, annihilating them one by one.
Until the entire universe trembled.
They all looked in horror toward the direction of the tremor. Unlike some weaker cultivators who couldn't even sense the change, they were all Saints, having reached the pinnacle of power in this universe. They could clearly sense where the tremor had occurred.
"That's where we obtained that spirit-type magic item!"
"Could it be that what the True Martial Saint King said is true, that that place is the connection point between the Netherworld and this universe, and because we took the magic treasure there, this universe is about to descend into chaos!"
They were shocked.
Their expressions shifted, unsure whether they should go and check.
...
The universe and starry sky are vast and boundless.
From the perspective of a planet, the universe has night and day. In the night, you can see countless stars in the sky, which is very mysterious and beautiful.
In the universe, the starry sky has no day or night; it is filled with colorful planets and stars, making it even more mysterious, beautiful, and splendid.
The universe has a center and an edge.
On the edge of a bright starry sky, a dark place suddenly appears.
If a powerful individual is nearby, they can sense that a powerful force of the underworld is spreading outwards from that dark place.
The power of the netherworld is also what many cultivators refer to as the power of the spirits, the energy cultivated by ghost cultivators.
However, this kind of energy is extremely rare in this universe.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Powerful explosions echoed continuously from this dark place.
If a powerful individual were to approach this dark place, they would see a powerful figure unleashing tremendous power, preventing the shadowy figures from leaving.
If their knowledge were more profound, they would have recognized that these powerful figures, whose bodies resembled shadows, were the legendary ghost cultivators.
"At first, there were only ordinary-level ghost cultivators. Later, there were higher-level ghost cultivators. Then, there were ghost cultivators at the half-step super realm. And then, there were ghost cultivators at the super realm... This space is too big, and it is still expanding. The strength of the ghost cultivators is also constantly increasing. I'm afraid I can't stop all the ghost cultivators from leaving here by myself alone..." The powerful figure who took action to stop them murmured with a solemn expression.
This powerful figure was none other than the True Martial Saint King.
"The only solution is to summon the powerful beings of all races in this universe to deal with this matter..." Soon, True Martial Saint King made up his mind.
"Buzz!"
He flipped his hand and took out a communication artifact, and began to contact various races in the universe.
In particular, he did not keep the contact information of the saints who appeared at the Heavenly Dao Fruit Competition. However, the Immortal Origin Holy Land had once been kind to all the races of the universe, and those races were very grateful and wanted to befriend the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Naturally, they all left their contact information with the Immortal Origin Holy Land.
...
"Hmm? Information about the True Martial Saint Lord?"
"True Martial Saint Lord! Alright, I'll go right away!"
"Rest assured, Lord Zhenwu Saint!"
Upon receiving the message, the powerful members of a cosmic race were all alarmed and quickly agreed.
From the information from the True Martial Saint King, they knew the seriousness of the matter. If those ghost cultivators were allowed to escape from that space, it would likely cause great harm to the living beings in this universe.
They are all practitioners of this universe, and naturally they don't want this kind of thing to happen.
In particular, this matter was initiated by the True Martial Saint Lord. Not long ago, the True Martial Saint Lord displayed extremely strong power. Whether they wanted to express their gratitude for the past kindness of the Immortal Source Holy Land, whether they wanted to befriend the Immortal Source Holy Land and the True Martial Saint Lord, or whether they were afraid that not going would cause the Immortal Source Holy Land and the True Martial Saint Lord to hold a grudge.
In short, powerful figures from various races set off quickly.
There is no need to go to anything below the Super Realm.
This is what Zhenwu Shengjun said.
The speed of super strong individuals is extremely fast, not to mention some saints in the super realm.
Soon, one powerful figure after another arrived at the place mentioned by the True Martial Saint King, that dark space.
"This is the point where this universe connects to the legendary underworld..."
"What terrifying Yin energy!"
"A ghost cultivator! That's a ghost cultivator!"
Each powerful figure gazed at this dark space, their hearts filled with awe.
“Now, many super-strong ghost cultivators have entered our universe. You should join forces to enter the dark space and kill them. Ghost cultivators have spiritual crystals inside their bodies, which are treasures that increase soul power. You can obtain them after you kill them…” Just then, the voice of the True Martial Saint King entered their ears.
"What? The ghost cultivator possesses a treasure that increases soul power?"
"Quick! Let's go in!"
The cultivators who had come were hesitant, wondering whether they should enter this dark space, when they heard the True Martial Saint's voice transmission and they all became excited.
Treasures that increase soul power are extremely rare in this universe; they are true treasures.
Now that such a treasure is placed before them, how could they possibly let it go?
Whew! Whew! Whew!
Immediately, many cultivators entered this dark space.
