The next morning.
Situ Xue and Hei Yue came out of their respective rooms and saw that Lin Jinglong was still on the sofa in the living room.
The jade slip in his hand was already sweaty from being gripped so tightly.
Situ Xue sighed and shook her head, saying, "That puppetry technique is Yang Xinhu's reliance in dominating the southern border, so it's destined not to be easy to break."
"Today's journey to the spiritual veins is likely to end in grave danger!"
"Yang Xinhu sent other puppets here last night to force you two to take the pill. He definitely won't wait long before he turns you two into puppets!"
Situ Xue's words made Hei Yue's face turn dark.
She hurried to Lin Jinglong's side, intending to wake him, but suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Situ Xue said quietly.
Black Moon's expression was solemn.
"He's entered a meditative state, a state of sudden enlightenment. Could it be that he can truly comprehend the Yang Family Puppet Technique overnight through a fragmented technique?"
Just as the two were filled with surprise.
Footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Mingbai Lian entered with several of his men. Before entering, he gave instructions to his nervous subordinates.
"When you meet Master Lin, you must be as respectful as possible. You absolutely must not make him angry, do you understand?"
"President, how could we dare to anger him?"
"A younger subordinate said in a trembling voice."
Another middle-aged Martial Emperor looked pained.
"When I first learned this Immortal Sitting on the Mountain Technique, I thought I could follow the guild leader and act arrogantly. Who knew that I would be schemed against by that Zhuge Zun? Last time he attacked, more than a thousand people in our guild were killed or injured, and most of the survivors also dropped in cultivation level. This is a fatal matter!"
Lian also let out a helpless sigh.
Their White Lotus Society is a first-rate force in the Southern Frontier. For many years, they have been hiding behind the scenes, wielding power and influence by relying on the Mountain-Sitting Technique.
Although with his talent, he dared not hope to reach the Martial Emperor realm, the ninth rank was already within his grasp. Who would dare to underestimate them?
If there were no other choice, why would someone be someone else's dog?
"I heard that Master Lin took the Spirit Essence Pill. If Yang Xinhu turns him into a puppet, will we be free?"
The young Martial Emperor suddenly spoke in a low voice.
Minglian's eyes flickered. In fact, he had also had such thoughts in his heart, but he dared not say them out loud.
"Don't talk nonsense. Master Lin is a lucky man. Perhaps he really has a way to master puppetry and break the effects of the Spirit Essence Pill?"
He gestured to the people around him not to speak.
We followed him into the villa building ahead.
Upon entering the living room, I saw that Lin Jinglong had just opened his eyes, which were bloodshot, indicating that he hadn't slept all night.
"Mr. Lin, how are you feeling right now?"
Mingbai Lian leaned closer and said ingratiatingly.
Lin Jinglong grinned at him.
"You lot, you're not hoping I die, are you?"
"We dare not!"
Lian waved her hands repeatedly, understanding the situation.
But Lin Jinglong had already slowly gotten up.
"I have already mastered this puppetry technique, and I have also mastered the method of refining the Spirit Essence Pill. As for breaking the soul seed left behind by Yang Xinhu..."
"Easy as pie!"
In front of everyone, he took out several top-grade talisman papers and drew an unnamed talisman, which was obviously a new development he had made after learning the puppetry technique.
Lian and the people behind her were dumbfounded.
Lin Jinglong casually drew talismans of the seventh and even eighth rank, quickly reaching over a hundred.
"This talisman is called the Soul-Breaking Talisman. It is specifically used to eliminate the soul seed of puppetry. Although we do not yet know what Yang Xinhu's purpose is in this spiritual vein trip, these talismans may give him a surprise."
Lin Jinglong had a faint, cold smile on his lips.
They want to turn him into a puppet?
Ambitious but incompetent!
Yang Xinhu is destined to suffer a loss!
"As expected of Master Lin!"
Although Minglian was half-believing and half-doubting, she still quickly led the people around her to flatter him.
Lin Jinglong and Hei Yue did not use the talisman immediately.
To avoid alerting Yang Xinhu, they planned to find out Yang Xinhu's specific purpose and whether the Lin family was behind him before attempting to solve the case once they reached the vicinity of the spiritual vein.
As long as Yang Xinhu doesn't rush to take action before then, it's fine.
Just as Lin Jinglong was drawing the talisman, Yang Ruolin, yawning, appeared in another villa within the manor.
Ying Qingyou looked extremely respectful and ingratiating.
“Young Master Yang, our Ying family and the Yang family have been friends for generations. My father has also specifically asked Uncle Yang to reserve a good position for the Ying family in the spiritual vein.”
"You will be richly rewarded in the future!"
Yang Ruolin glanced at him.
“Ying Qingyou, it is precisely because our two families are old friends that I have come here specifically to advise you not to go on this trip to the spiritual vein, so as to avoid unpleasantness between our two families in the future.”
"On what grounds?"
Ying Qingyou simply couldn't understand it.
His face suddenly turned somewhat gloomy.
"Yang Ruolin, this time the Holy Realm is in turmoil and a spiritual vein has emerged. Your Yang family seized the initiative, sending thousands of martial artists to occupy the entire spiritual vein and recruiting hundreds of other forces to go together. Does our Ying family not even have the right to participate?"
Yang Ruolin scoffed upon hearing this.
"Those who don't heed the advice of their elders will suffer the consequences!"
"you……"
"I can give you a heads-up."
Yang Ruolin suddenly lowered his voice.
"The reason our Yang family was able to seize the spiritual vein so quickly is because its appearance was deliberately orchestrated!"
"What?"
Ying Qingyou suddenly froze.
