Lin Ruchu's voice echoed in Lin Jinglong's mind.
"No matter how strong your bloodline is, it can't surpass Lin Xueying, whom I created using the Clay Figure Technique by fusing the essence of hundreds of children. He is an invincible bloodline monster!"
The essence and blood of hundreds of children?
Lin Jinglong's lips twitched.
"So, you had hundreds of children, then extracted their essence and blood to create this monster?"
He originally thought that killing the Hidden World Alliance members and extracting their blood essence to refine pills was already ruthless, but compared to Lin Ruchu, he was still ruthless.
He's just a greenhorn!
Lin Ruchu's sinister laughter echoed in his mind.
“They are my bones. Since I gave birth to them, how I use them is entirely up to me. Why be so surprised?”
"You win!"
Lin Jinglong, his eyes red, fought Lin Xueying head-on.
The hundreds of imperial sons born to the Lin clan's ancestor, top-tier monsters formed from the fusion of countless bloodline essences—could I really not defeat their bloodline power?
"Bloodline resonance, absorb it!"
The potential within Lin Jinglong's bloodline was fully unleashed. In fact, he and Ge Ling'er had already explored the path to enhance bloodline power through acquired means.
With their top-tier bodies modified by the Ten Transformations of the Heavenly Silkworm, they can consume supplements such as dragon blood and unicorn blood to forcibly modify their bloodlines.
However, the development time was still too short.
Lin Jinglong didn't even have time to conduct further experiments.
Immediately following was the battle of Qingxu Cave Heaven, and then there was the extremely urgent plan to achieve the title of Emperor Wu.
Even so, he and the terrifying monster Lin Xueying were evenly matched, and the scales of victory were beginning to tip in his favor.
"Lin Ruchu, it seems your bloodline is nothing special, not even as good as mine, a member of a collateral branch of the Lin family!"
Lin Jinglong suddenly burst into laughter.
But Lin Ruchu remained silent inside the palace.
He seemed unsure how to respond to Lin Jinglong's provocation.
"Perhaps you are the descendant of the main line, while I am the one from a collateral branch?"
After a long while, Lin Ruchu suddenly let out a cold laugh. Just now, he seemed to recall some unpleasant events from a thousand years ago that he still remembered vividly.
"Really? What you said makes sense."
Lin Jinglong nodded slightly.
His bloodline power is incredibly strong.
Lin Ruchu suddenly revealed her true feelings, and the almost sentimental words she uttered confirmed his suspicions.
They were not actually a branch of the reclusive Lin family.
Did they have other ancestral origins?
Without giving it any thought, Lin Jinglong suddenly drew his Five Elements Dragon Roar Blade as Lin Xueying's body began to wither and collapse. In order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, he unleashed dozens of dragon soul strikes at Lin Xueying's body.
The phantom of the true dragon pierced through Lin Xueying's body.
Already extremely weak, he finally succumbed to the heavy blow at this moment. After exhausting all the power of his bloodline, he finally turned into ashes and vanished into nothingness.
"broken!"
Nangong Ba fought with Situ Zhentian, but he kept a close eye on Lin Jinglong. He was not afraid of Situ Zhentian, but he had to be wary of the Zhenwu Seal in Lin Jinglong's hand.
After seeing Lin Jinglong defeat Lin Xueying.
Without stopping, he turned around and, at the cost of taking a punch from Situ Zhentian, spat out another mouthful of black blood, severely injured, and fled outside the Holy Realm.
Lin Jinglong, however, had no time to pursue and kill the guy.
His gaze fell upon the dark palace entrance.
Lin Ruchu, the first ancestor of the Lin clan whom he believed could not leave the palace, finally appeared before him for the first time.
This person looked to be in his seventies or eighties, dressed in a black and white Taoist robe with an air of otherworldly elegance. His long beard fluttered in the wind under his chin, and there was even a yin-yang symbol circulating on the front of his robe.
Judging from his demeanor, he doesn't seem like an old monster who would use blood sacrifices, nor does he seem like a pervert who would create a monster like Lin Xueying.
He's more like a transcendent immortal master.
But that's how things are in this world; what you see at a glance is often deceiving. Only by seeing through the true nature of people can you truly understand a person.
Lin Ruchu stood with her hands behind her back, looking over expressionlessly.
"Lin Jinglong, you've managed to force me to temporarily abandon opening the Sacred Realm, which shows your skill. But have you ever considered that once I step out of this palace, you'll have no chance of survival?"
"Boom..."
As they were speaking, lightning flashed overhead.
The celestial phenomena within this sacred realm even underwent drastic changes due to Lin Ruchu's appearance, with countless dark clouds sweeping overhead.
The roar of thunder was incessant.
The wind howled relentlessly!
The view gradually darkened.
Only the white light of thunder occasionally illuminated the surroundings.
Lin Jinglong stood at the foot of the palace steps, looking up at the old man with an air of otherworldly grace. The lightning made his aged face appear dim and indistinct.
But that terrifying aura belonged exclusively to the Celestial Martial Emperor.
But just one glance was enough to make him break out in a cold sweat!
Situ Zhentian rushed to his side, then suddenly asked somewhat nervously, "Are you sure you want to fight this person?"
"The opportunity to become Emperor Wu will only come once."
Lin Jinglong's expression remained unchanged. Although his hand holding the knife trembled slightly, he was still able to stand steadily and did not kneel down on one knee.
Situ Zhentian gritted his teeth.
"Damn it, I'll risk my life for you! You help me rescue my daughter, and I'll fight him to the death!"
Behind them, Ge Ling'er was already drenched in cold sweat.
She also looked up at Lin Ruchu.
Their gaze seemed to travel back to the glorious years of five thousand years ago, prompting them to exclaim in amazement.
"That's right, that's correct!"
