Qin He's face was paler than ever before. He was a cultivator at the Earth Profound Realm and an elder of the Supreme Pavilion, a mysterious organization with a history of thousands of years.
Although I left Daxia many years ago.
They fled overseas and lived under the roof of others, but with the powerful influence of their Supreme Pavilion, they could be considered a local lord even overseas.
Even when cooperating with the Federation of Superpowers.
It doesn't really count as merging into their organization.
On the contrary, they have the demeanor of being equals.
But at this moment, Qin He sensed a life-or-death crisis. After sensing the danger to his life, he actually knelt down in front of Lin Jinglong, just like everyone else.
He trembled all over and immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.
We were wrong!
"Please, sir, spare us!"
"Our Supreme Pavilion has no intention of being your enemy!"
"..."
Including Kawakami, they were all terrified and, together with Qin He, begged Lin Jinglong for mercy.
Seeing this, Lin Jinglong immediately felt bored.
That's it?
Lin Jinglong originally thought that the Supreme Pavilion, which had been passed down for many years, should still have some trump cards in its hands. After all, it could stand on equal footing with the Superpower Federation. Although it was isolated overseas, it should still have some skills.
I never expected them to be so easily defeated.
The courage of a dignified Earth Profound Realm cultivator is not even as great as that of the Martial Emperor named Harry whom I met before.
But speaking of which...
It's also because that Martial Emperor was too stupid.
"Fine, I won't make things difficult for you. After all, I have no grudges against your Supreme Pavilion, do I?"
Lin Jinglong smiled faintly.
Qin He and the others remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to get up.
They knew that Lin Jinglong's decision to let them go was not because he was soft-hearted. How could a powerful martial artist who had cultivated to such a level be so easily swayed by emotions?
Since a conflict has already occurred with them.
And they also have the power to easily suppress them.
Whether or not to suppress them is entirely up to personal preference.
The reason they weren't killed is probably because there's something they need to do.
"Answer two questions for me first."
"My first question is, did the guy I was chasing just now leave this area before the Shadow Formation was broken?"
Lin Jinglong's gaze fell on Kawakami's face.
The old Japanese man trembled slightly. He opened his mouth, but dared not lie.
He nodded and said, "When I was being chased by you, that figure had already escaped the Shadowfall Array. He must have been terrified by your strength, so he dared not hide in the Shadowfall Array any longer and forced his way out."
"This You Jiu is really smooth."
Lin Jinglong was starting to get a headache.
As expected of an ancient cultivator who survived the great calamity of the Absolute Heaven and Earth Connection, You Jiu's original plan was probably to hide in this Shadowfall Array and watch himself clash with the Supreme Pavilion and the Superpower Federation.
It even allowed the Shadow Array to keep him outside.
But after realizing that he had easily broken the Shadowfall Formation, he immediately fled the place.
"Then answer my second question."
What are you searching for in this fog?
"There shouldn't be many members of the Superpower Federation, or rather, people from your Supreme Pavilion, in Great Xia and Southern Border, right? The fact that you were able to pinpoint this area so precisely must mean you were following some clues!"
When confronted with the questioning, Kawakami fell silent.
He seemed to know something.
But he dared not speak in response.
Qin He, standing to the side, also opened his mouth, looking quite troubled, as if unwilling to reveal the truth.
Lin Jinglong's aura grew increasingly heavy.
The group, who had initially breathed a sigh of relief and felt they had found a way out, now began to panic again.
Qin He didn't even need to say a word.
One of the Martial Emperors said in unison, "We are here to find the Supreme Sword. This sword is an ancient sacred artifact, and it is said that it contains the secret to advancing to the Supreme Martial Emperor level."
"Oh? There are such treasures?"
Lin Jinglong immediately became interested.
He is now a Celestial Martial Emperor, and even among Celestial Martial Emperors, he can be considered an extremely powerful being.
However, regarding how to advance to the Supreme Martial Emperor...
But there was no clue whatsoever.
After all, that was originally a legendary realm.
Based on everything he knew, over the years, there had only been one true Supreme Martial Emperor: Lin Ruchu.
As for the others, they are just legends.
"Perhaps Hades, the King of the Underworld, also possessed the strength of a Supreme Martial Emperor, but that is just a legend."
Lin Jinglong felt the difficulty of advancing to the Supreme Martial Emperor.
It is even more difficult than becoming a cultivator in the Dao Integration stage, especially now that the world has begun to undergo tremendous changes and the Great Tribulation of the Severing of Heaven and Earth has ended.
Obtaining spiritual energy is not as difficult as before.
Furthermore, opportunities to achieve Dao integration will arise in the world. For example, Lin Ruchu refined the Ascension Platform and obtained the opportunity to achieve Dao integration.
As for the Supreme Martial Emperor, there was no path to him whatsoever.
"If the Supreme Sword is really here, I'll have to go and find it."
A smile appeared on Lin Jinglong's face.
Qin He shook his head repeatedly.
"Although you are very strong, even if you find the Supreme Sword, I'm afraid you won't be able to control it."
"Why?"
Lin Jinglong looked at Qin He with confusion.
This Earth Profound Realm martial artist from the Supreme Pavilion gritted his teeth and said, "The original purpose of our Supreme Pavilion was to find the path to becoming a Supreme Martial Emperor. However, for thousands of years, we have only been able to search for the Supreme Sword according to ancient legends, but the Supreme Sword is a sacred artifact of ancient body cultivators."
"It can be said that the origin of all martial artists in the world today comes from the ancient body-cultivating powerhouses."
"This sword contains extremely strong martial arts essence. Only someone from the Supreme Pavilion who cultivates the Supreme Body Tempering Method and possesses the strongest martial arts aptitude can control that sword!"
Lin Jinglong's expression was quite disdainful.
"What Supreme Body Forging Method? You haven't even seen the Supreme Sword. You're just searching for it based on ancient legends. It's as if only your Supreme Pavilion has the ability to obtain this sword."
Qin He was clearly unconvinced by these words.
Even the group of martial artists behind him, who were terrified by Lin Jinglong, looked displeased.
"The Supreme Body Tempering Method is the strongest body cultivation method in thousands of years. It integrates hundreds of immortal-level martial arts techniques, taking their essence and discarding their dross. Only members of the Supreme Pavilion are qualified to cultivate it, and only we have the ability to cultivate it."
"After all, we are the most outstanding martial artists in the world in terms of both innate talent and comprehension!"
"Even so, it will still take us at least ten years to even begin to grasp the Supreme Body Tempering Technique!"
Qin He and the others explained it to Lin Jinglong.
Although they were shameful, they highly praised the Supreme Body Tempering Method and wouldn't allow Lin Jinglong to question it.
In response, Lin Jinglong simply extended his hand.
"Let me see this body-strengthening method."
