"Lin Ruchu, you've gone mad!"
Qian Fuhai remained hidden in the crevice, quietly following Lin Ruchu and rebuking him.
"You're planning to sacrifice millions of lives in Tianbao City? Are you even human?"
"Hmph! What do you know?"
Lin Ruchu's expression was dismissive.
"This sacred realm hides countless ancient mysteries and is related to whether the path to immortality can be reopened in the mortal world after the severing of the connection between heaven and earth. No matter the cost, I must open this sacred realm!"
“A thousand years ago, I, Lin Ruchu, had only practiced martial arts for a hundred years when I reached the Celestial Martial Emperor realm, thus reaching the end of my cultivation path.”
"If there is a chance to become an immortal, how could I miss it?"
Lin Ruchu said firmly.
"Even at the cost of millions of lives, we would not hesitate?"
"Of course, what do I care about other people's lives or deaths?"
Lin Ruchu laughed heartily.
Qian Fuhai fell silent.
In his view, even if it was to open up a new path and reconnect the dead end of martial arts, Lin Ruchu's methods were too radical.
But he was powerless to stop them.
"What if it's not a fairyland inside, and there's no immortal inheritance there, and it's just empty?"
"Hehe, the ancient powerful beings used this peculiar method to merge the two spaces together in order to conceal the existence of the true Saint Realm. If there was nothing inside, why would they go to such great lengths?"
Lin Ruchu was determined to gamble on this opportunity.
The price was the entire Tianbao City!
After figuring out the true secret of the Holy Realm, Lin Ruchu immediately ordered Lao Zui to take action and activate the blood sacrifice array in Tianbao City.
You can rest assured that I'll handle things well.
The ancient heretical cultivator, Old Drunk, laughed arrogantly.
He was also very interested in the mystery of the sacred site.
The grand formation within Tianbao City was also personally set up by him and Lin Ruchu over the past year. With the assistance of his Drunken Dream Immortal Scripture, there was absolutely no possibility of failure.
But Lin Ruchu felt it was still not safe enough.
He relayed his findings to Lin Tianwei, the head of the Lin family, who was hiding in the distance, and asked him to inform the higher-ups of other families.
This includes some reclusive celestial ancestors.
They even notified the people of the Superpower Federation.
"Tell them I'm absolutely certain I can open the Sacred Realm and find the treasure left behind by the ancient immortals, and have them send all their experts over."
"If anyone dares to block our way, whether it's the Elders' Council or any other force, we will kill them all!"
"Once the Holy Realm opens, I'll have the advantage, and others will naturally get a share too!"
Lin Tianwei was extremely excited after receiving the news.
It seems the Lin family is about to make a big splash this time!
This is related to the mystery of becoming an immortal, or even a major event that will allow the immortal path to be revived in the mortal world. No force would want to miss it.
Meanwhile, inside Tianbao City...
A cluster of purple-gold spiritual energy is gathering in the northwest corner.
Inside the Dark Star Manor, Lin Jinglong was in a secret room attempting to break through to the Martial Emperor realm. After obtaining the opportunity and having sufficient resources, successfully breaking through was a natural outcome for him.
Outside the secret chamber, the other three Martial Emperors had almost recovered their strength, but were still somewhat weak, especially Situ Zhentian, who had fought Lin Ruchu several times and was also suffering from the side effects of the Di Xue Ba Dan.
If it weren't for Qingdi Fengpeng's expertise in healing...
Even if he doesn't die, he'll be crippled.
"We finally escaped a calamity. I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky. After Qian Fuhai appeared, Lin Ruchu simply let me and Lin Jinglong go. I just don't know what the Qian family's situation is now."
Situ Zhentian muttered to himself.
His face also showed lingering fear.
Just then, several powerful members of the Elder Council rushed into the Dark Star Manor.
Huangfu Qingming was the leader, with his confidant Huangfu Chao beside him, as well as Wu Xuan, the head of the Dark Division. Behind them were many elite warriors transferred from the Elders' Council.
They booked out Dark Star Manor entirely.
"Huangfu Qingming, what brings you here?"
Situ Zhentian stepped forward with a gloomy face.
Huangfu Qingming was blocked on the lawn of the manor. He looked up at the purple-gold spiritual energy gathering in the sky and poured it all into the manor. He knew without a doubt that Lin Jinglong had broken through the limit of the Martial Emperor and was about to break through.
"I came here to retrieve the Zhenwu Seal."
Huangfu Qingming said calmly.
Wu Xuan, the head of the Dark Guard beside him, said in a low voice, "Now that you have returned from the Holy Realm, the Zhenwu Seal should be returned to the Elder Council. It is the Elder Council's sacred artifact."
Situ Zhentian sneered.
"You certainly know how to pick your time, deliberately choosing a moment when Lin Jinglong is breaking through and unable to spare any attention to demand the Zhenwu Seal."
"What business is it of yours when we come to pick it up?"
Huangfu Chao scolded him with a smug look on his face.
He crossed his arms, looked around, and said with a sneer, "Either hand over the Zhenwu Seal, or we'll make our move right here and prevent Lin Jinglong from breaking through!"
"You have such wicked thoughts."
Feng Peng's face was also very ugly, and he stepped forward to block the way.
Huangfu Qingming raised his hand, signaling the others not to say anything. He looked Situ Zhentian up and down and nodded slightly.
"You truly deserve to be the owner of Dark Star Auction House. Although your martial arts foundation has been damaged and you haven't recovered yet, you at least managed to escape from the clutches of the Celestial Martial Emperor."
"They even rescued tens of thousands of ordinary people."
"I have to admire your skills."
"But the Zhenwu Seal is a sacred artifact of the Elders' Council. You either hand it over, or you will be considered treasonous, and I will not show any mercy."
Huangfu Qingming looked at the people in front of him with a cold smile.
Besides wanting to seize the Zhenwu Seal while Lin Jinglong was breaking through, he also had another purpose: he knew that they had just escaped from the Holy Realm and must be in a very weak state.
This was the perfect opportunity for him to make his move.
The three people in front looked at each other.
Unable to contain her explosive temper, Ge Ling'er charged out with the Gaia Greatsword. Although her power had not fully recovered, she could not accept these people's threats.
"Your elders council is doing nothing. The people in the Holy Realm were personally brought out by me, your ancestor. How dare you come here to snatch the Zhenwu Seal?"
"It's our property, let's stick to the facts!"
Wu Xuan said indignantly.
But Feng Peng just chuckled.
"The Grand Elder said he would lend the Zhenwu Seal to Lin Jinglong, but he didn't say when it would be returned. You probably have no right to try and take it."
"You won't pay, huh? Then we'll beat you up!"
Huangfu Qingming snorted coldly.
He charged forward with two Martial Emperors beside him, while nearby members of the Dark Guard formed a formation to try and suppress the three in front of him.
Dark Star Manor is in complete chaos.
At this moment, Lin Jinglong was accumulating his last bit of strength, absorbing the purple-gold spiritual energy above his head, and breaking through to the final step.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
"Is Huangfu Qingming here to cause trouble?"
He threw the Zhenwu Seal out from his sleeve.
"Situ Zhentian, use this seal to suppress Huangfu Qingming, don't let them gain any advantage."
