"It's been a long time since I've seen Lin Jinglong. You've grown much faster than I imagined."
"so what?"
Lin Jinglong stared at him coldly.
The one who came was none other than Shenxiao!
Not long ago, he watched as the phantoms of Shenxiao and Lin Wudi engaged in a bloody battle in the air, though he was certain that Lin Wudi had not used his full strength.
He also cannot bear the full power of the Heavenly Dao of the Lower Realm.
But Shenxiao was ultimately the one who killed Lin Wudi!
This grudge must be avenged!
Upon hearing this, Shenxiao shrugged and said, "Although you are growing rapidly, it is not yet time for our final battle."
"A decisive battle? If I obtain the complete core of the Heavenly Dao of the Lower Realm, how could you be my opponent?" Lin Jinglong looked at him in confusion, and frowned, saying, "If you want to make a move, why not do it now? You are qualified to be my opponent now."
If it were a ninth-level elder from one of the other major sects, Lin Jinglong could kill them all in a one-on-one fight.
As for Shenxiao.
According to his calculations, at least thirty or even fifty lower realm Heavenly Dao Cores would be needed to defeat Shenxiao!
Therefore, if Shenxiao were to make a move at this time...
Lin Jinglong could only look for an opportunity to leave.
After all, Shenxiao's strength has recovered a lot during this period. Although he may not be as strong as he was at his peak, he is still incredibly powerful.
Shenxiao merely chuckled coldly at this.
"You want to acquire the Heavenly Dao Core of the Lower Realm, but don't I want to plunder the Heavenly Dao Core of the Upper Realm and become its sole controller?"
What does that mean?
Lin Jinglong was somewhat confused.
Shenxiao said to himself, "Only by allowing you to continue to grow and obtain the complete Heavenly Dao Core of the Lower Realm will I have a reason to strip the Upper Realm Cores controlled by the other powerful beings in the Upper Realm."
"Become the one and only strongest!"
"Only in this way can I defeat you, who has completely controlled the core of the Heavenly Dao of the Lower Realm."
Shenxiao's attitude surprised Lin Jinglong greatly.
He suddenly said sarcastically, "So you wanted to use me, an external enemy, to consolidate the power within your Upper Realm. I've become someone you can use."
“That’s right. If someone else had obtained the Heavenly Dao Record, it would have caused some trouble. But you, Lin Jinglong, got it, which suits me just fine.”
Shenxiao's expression suddenly turned somewhat gloomy.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I shouldn't have lost to Lin Wudi. He was already at his last gasp. But those bastards from the Upper Realm didn't keep their promise. After I was defeated, they risked the lives of one or two of them to kill Lin Wudi and rescue me."
"Therefore, this time, in addition to restoring my strength and dealing with the invincible bloodline, I also want to take revenge on those bastards in the upper realm!"
"Your existence is the best excuse!"
As Shenxiao finished speaking, golden light shone from his body.
An aura of majesty swept in all directions.
The members of the Tianlong Sect, who originally wanted to sneak over to spy on the situation, as well as members of the other major sects, did not dare to approach rashly and were swept away by this aura.
"Has Shenxiao Zhenjun made his move?"
Everyone present was extremely nervous.
Everyone realized that a major battle might be about to break out!
However, when they actually got close to that place, they found that Lin Jinglong and Shenxiao had all vanished without a trace.
What's going on?
Everyone frowned and looked around.
They all left!
Neither Lin Jinglong nor Shen Xiao made a move.
They looked bewildered, and all eyes were on Wan Xing's face. How could this Grand Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect know what the Divine Lord was thinking?
He looked around and met the skeptical gazes of the group.
His expression immediately turned awkward, and he waved his hand, saying, "Perhaps Shenxiao Zhenjun is letting that kid off the hook for now, otherwise, once he makes a move, Lin Jinglong will definitely be defeated!"
"What did you say?"
Someone rushed out.
He grabbed Wan Xing by the collar and said angrily, "According to you, Shenxiao is going to take action against Lin Jinglong, and it's impossible for them to just stand by and watch him steal the Heavenly Dao Record."
"If that's the case, why didn't he make a move immediately?"
"But now that Shenxiao has appeared and then quietly left, without any intention of making a move, it can only mean that he deliberately let Lin Jinglong go. Do you know something?"
How would I know?
Wan Xing pushed the person in front of him away.
He looked around, his face grim.
How could a ninth-rank elder be pushing and shoving in front of so many disciples?
However, he met the angry gazes of those people.
Wan Xing could only explain, "Perhaps the Divine Lord has other places we don't know, but that's not important. What's important is that the other True Lords besides Shenxiao wouldn't allow Lin Jinglong to act so recklessly, would they?"
"After all, above us, there is still the Heavenly Dao of the Upper Realm!"
"They are the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao!"
"Lin Jinglong is a huge threat to the Heavenly Dao!"
Wan Xing's words angered those people.
But there was nothing more to say, since they couldn't completely break ties with Wan Xing. Everyone looked at each other.
Suddenly, someone said with a gloomy expression, "So, it turns out that we four major sects originally thought we could be the ones to stalk the cicada from behind, but the Eternal Sect suffered heavy losses, and we dared not make a move while they were fighting Lin Jinglong."
"After their battle with Lin Jinglong ended, we paid the price of three ninth-tier warriors dying in battle, and then sent another round of supplies to Lin Jinglong."
"But in the end, we didn't have the courage to take action."
"It's all your fault, Wan Xing!"
The others cast reproachful glances at the people from the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
Wan Xing was completely enraged this time. His aura surged, and he roared, "You bunch of bastards, you actually blame me? You should know that if you hadn't hesitated just now, I would have rushed over and attacked Lin Jinglong long ago!"
"It is because you do not trust the Heavenly Dragon Sect and do not trust me, Wan Xing, that this result has occurred."
"If everyone attacks together, how can Lin Jinglong withstand it?"
The others looked on with disdain and contempt.
"You didn't help either, did you? You talk as if you trust us. If you had, we would definitely have helped you!"
"you……"
Wan Xing was completely speechless.
Meanwhile, after speaking with Shenxiao, Lin Jinglong appeared on an island with a celestial mountain permeated with the aura of the Heavenly Dao.
Zhao Qimen, standing beside him, had a solemn expression.
"Shenxiao's ambition is too great. What he wants is to first swallow up the other powerful figures who control the core of the Heavenly Dao in the Upper Realm. Whether by coercion or bribery, he will make this happen. But his next step is to fight you!"
"This is a good thing!"
Lin Jinglong narrowed his eyes and said calmly.
"After all, I also want to settle things with Shenxiao."
