Of course, this is for other living beings.

Lin Chen is not among them.

Possessing an innate Taoist body, he is the best in the Zhenwu World in terms of aptitude and comprehension. As early as when he was in the True Spirit Realm, he had clearly defined his own path of cultivation.

Guard the sword.

Now, he has comprehended the Law of Protection and the Law of Sword, and integrated these two top laws into his own way of cultivation, forming a special way of cultivation that is unique to him but comparable to the strongest way.

In other words, Lin Chen has now met the second and third requirements for advancement to the Transcendent Realm. As long as he increases his magic power to the limit of his current realm, he can try to break through to the Transcendent Realm.

Therefore, after returning to the Lin family, Lin Chen couldn't wait to enter a state of seclusion.

In order to make the best use of it, he chose to activate the most cost-effective 100x time passage, which could last for ten years and cost one million merit points.

With all his hard work, Lin Chen's remaining merit points were draining away like water.

After a thousand years in the outside world and a hundred thousand years of hard practice in the middle thousand world, he had used up all his remaining merit points, including those earned during this period.

"With 330 million caves, the sword-guarding path has taken another step forward based on the initial level. The most important thing is that the remaining several supreme magical powers have all been cultivated to perfection."

Feeling the terrifying power in his body, Lin Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of intoxication on his face.

He is now several times stronger than he was before his retreat.

If I were to face the Bloodthirsty Demon Palace Master again, I could defeat him even without the help of the Eternal Sword. But if I were to use the Eternal Sword as a backup, I guess I wouldn't be able to resist even one of his moves.

"The Lin family can now bring me 6,300 merit points a year, which means 63 million merit points in 10,000 years, and this is still a conservative estimate."

"According to the cost of opening up a complete cave heaven with three merit points, as long as I accumulate 450 million merit points, I can open up 480 million cave heavens and reach the limit of the realm master realm."

"That is to say, even if the merit points derived from the Lin family do not improve at all, I only have to wait for 70,000 years at most."

“However, if we add in the continuous flow of forces joining us, the merits of integrating the continent, and the merits of preaching intermittently, and then add in the increase in luck points derived from the Lin family every year, it may actually take less than 40,000 years.”

When he thought of this, Lin Chen's gaze seemed to penetrate through layers of space and saw the large and small continents outside the Yanhuang Continent. A smile flashed in his eyes.

Ever since he destroyed the Bloodthirsty Demon Palace, because of his heroic deeds.

Many passionate forces and powerful people came to join them, especially in the southeast region, especially the forces that had been oppressed by the Bloodthirsty Demon Hall and the Bloodthirsty Demon Palace before.

They would not hesitate to pay a huge price to cross the vast distance of tens or even hundreds of light years and migrate their forces to the vicinity of the Yanhuang Continent.

In addition to this, his reputation as the "Martial Saint" attracted many powerful forces and experts.

As the saying goes, it's nice to sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade.

With their strength and background, it cannot be said that it is a bad thing for them to join those high-ranking supreme sects and immortal families, but they are definitely at the bottom of that big ship, and it is difficult for them to climb up. Once they encounter any major crisis, they are likely to be arranged on the front line of the war.

This is what they don't want.

However, under the great crisis of demon invasion, they would have no way to survive if they did not join forces with a powerful force. At this time, Lin Chen's name as the Martial Saint spread, and their eyes immediately lit up.

After some inquiries, the current popular scene has emerged.

"Wow, there are six large continents, thirty-six medium-sized continents, and more than a hundred small continents. If all of them were integrated into the Yanhuang Continent, wouldn't it be possible to upgrade it to the supercontinent level?"

After so many years of development, the area of ​​the Yanhuang Continent has more than doubled compared to when it was promoted to a large continent, and it is no longer the bottom of the large continents.

Although there is no top-notch existence among these six large continents, and it can even be said that the strongest one is only slightly better than the current Yanhuang Continent, but with the support of thirty-six medium-sized continents and more than one hundred small continents, it is not impossible to reach the level of a supercontinent.

"Last time, when Yanhuang Continent was promoted to a large continent, I was rewarded with 20 million merit points. If it is promoted to a supercontinent, wouldn't the reward be ten times or even dozens of times higher?"

"If we add the luck support from all the major forces."

Swish. Thinking of this, Lin Chen could no longer sit still. His figure flashed and disappeared into the middle thousand worlds.

After some conversations and discussions with the top leaders of various major forces.

Soon, a ninety-nine-story altar for offering sacrifices to heaven stood in the center of the current Yanhuang Alliance headquarters, the Central Imperial City.

After some solemn prayers, all major forces officially joined the Yanhuang Alliance family.

A series of system prompts also came from Lin Chen’s mind.

[Congratulations to the host family for receiving the luck support from the Liu family of the Yanhuang Alliance and gaining 21010 merit points.]

[Congratulations to the host family for receiving the luck support from the Haoran Sect of the Yanhuang Alliance and gaining 867,497 merit points. ]

【.】

Hundreds of reminder sounds in a row made Lin Chen very happy.

In just a blink of an eye, he gained more than 80 million merit points.

But this is just the beginning.

Big head, I am still waiting for the heavenly reward after the fusion of the continent.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath. His figure flashed slightly and he came to the sky above the Yanhuang Continent. A vast aura suddenly spread from him, and in an instant it enveloped the Yanhuang Continent and hundreds of surrounding continents.

Then, under the shocked gazes of countless creatures.

Giant hands that were big enough to cover the entire continent suddenly penetrated the clouds and pushed these continents to a position within reach of the Yanhuang Continent.

The creatures on these continents only felt dizzy, and then when they opened their eyes, they saw the Yanhuang Continent which was only one step away from them.

This horrifying scene left everyone stunned and dazed.

"Fuck, what kind of trick is this? Such a large continent was instantly moved to the edge of Yanhuang Continent, and there was not even a single ripple?"

"As expected of the leader of the Yanhuang Alliance, this method deserves the title of Martial Saint!"

"There are hundreds of continents, six of which are large continents. Even if I count all the 'Martial Saints' of all generations, I have never heard of any one who possesses such terrifying means."

"The Lin family's ancestor is absolutely a terrifying existence that has never been seen before."

"Being born in this era is both a sorrow and an honor for all the geniuses. Being able to witness the rise of such a monster is a blessing in itself."

“.”

There are some things that you can only know their horror if you experience them.

For example, these powerful people who have newly joined the Yanhuang Alliance originally did not have a concrete concept of Lin Chen’s strength, but now, they do.

With a wave of his hand, he moved hundreds of continents, some of which were large continents, without causing a single ripple. With such great power, even if all of them were combined, they would not be able to be his opponent.

It can even be said that this itself is something that goes beyond what an ordinary Realm Lord can do.

However, the more powerful the methods Lin Chen displayed, the happier they were.

Joining the Yanhuang Alliance is itself to resist the catastrophe of the demon invasion. The more they have a powerful leader, the greater their chances of surviving the coming catastrophe.

"Continent, together."

Just when everyone was thinking different things, a domineering roar suddenly sounded in their ears.

Look up.

As soon as these words fell, an extremely terrifying force suddenly poured out from Lin Chen's hands. The dazzling light instantly covered all the borders bordering the Yanhuang Continent. The terrifying power of the earth veins surged, like an ancient true dragon flipping its huge body, causing these continents to shake violently.

It was at this time.

An incomparably terrifying soul force instantly spread out from Lin Chen's body and poured into the dozens of borders below that were adjacent to the Yanhuang Continent. It began to sort out and connect the power of the earth veins between the continents.

Rumble. As this power poured into many continents, these continents first shook violently, and then gradually calmed down.

The hundreds of continents that originally surrounded the Yanhuang Continent were now perfectly connected to it.

"The continental integration was successful."

Looking at the endless Yanhuang Continent before them, everyone was filled with surprise.

It was at this time that the sky suddenly became stormy. Strands of golden light suddenly fell from the sky, condensing into golden light pillars ranging from tens to thousands of feet in size.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Then, these pillars of merit light split into two.

Fifty percent of it fell on Lin Chen, and the other fifty percent fell on the Yanhuang Continent under the feet of all living beings.

[Congratulations to the host, you have successfully merged the continents, sorted out and repaired the earth veins, and received the Heavenly Merit Reward of the Zhenwu World. 】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 160 million merit points. ]

"It's a pity that we didn't even break through to the supercontinent level."

Looking at his personal panel, Lin Chen couldn't help feeling a little regretful as he saw that the balance of merit points had exceeded 240 million.

If the Yanhuang Continent could be promoted to the supercontinent level, he might even be able to gather enough merit points to open up 480 million caves.

"But it's not a big problem."

Naturally, there were more ways for him to earn merit points than just this one. Although given the Lin family's current situation, they could generate enough merit points by waiting for tens of thousands of years, he couldn't wait.

He must open up 480 million caves as soon as possible and then try to break through to the transcendent realm.

Only if he reaches this realm before the demon invasion, he will have some power to protect himself.

At worst, if he has enough merit points, he can use the system's equivalent exchange function to temporarily improve his strength in dangerous moments.

Therefore, after the welcome celebration, Lin Chen stepped into the Middle Thousand World again.

This time, he did not go into seclusion to practice immediately.

Instead, it brought together many powerful members of the Lin family.

"Next, I will open up a training area in this area that will last for ten thousand years, a hundred times longer than the time in the outside world. All you have to do is work hard to improve your cultivation. When the training effect of this area disappears, go to all parts of the Zhenwu World and find out the distribution of the major forces of the demon race."

Lin Chen explained it in great detail, allowing many powerful members of the Lin family to immediately understand his plan.

Naturally I wouldn't refuse.

Instead, he patted his chest with excitement and promised: "We will definitely live up to the trust of our ancestor."

Nodding with satisfaction, Lin Chen didn't say much. With a wave of his hand, he spent 50 million merit points to open up a training area that could last for ten thousand years, where the passage of time was a hundred times faster than in the outside world.

Then, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he disappeared from the spot.

"We are waiting to see you off, old ancestor."

Seeing this scene, many Lin family warriors suddenly showed a hint of excitement on their faces.

Then he quickly walked into the training area.

A hundred times the time passes, and it lasts for ten thousand years.

This almost means that they have a million years to practice.

It is enough to bring about earth-shaking changes in their cultivation.

"Hahaha, with my intermediate holy body qualifications, I should be able to be promoted to the realm master in a million years, right?"

"As expected of the ancestor, his actions are magnanimous."

“I don’t know if this area has any effect on Realm Lords. If it does, that would be great.”

"It's unlikely. This world has just been promoted to the middle thousand world. If we want to reverse time and transform a cultivation area suitable for the realm master realm, the burden on the origin of the world will be a bit too heavy. Even if the ancestor has great means, he probably won't do this. The cost is too high."

"good."

“.”

Feeling the changes in the surrounding environment, the many powerful Lin family members present couldn't help but talk excitedly.

It took me a while to suppress my inner excitement.

Then they began to practice.

For a moment, the sky in the entire area returned to its previous calm, with only the roaring sounds of torsions of spiritual energy ringing in the air.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

"After they come out of retreat, my Lin family should have many more Realm Masters. With such cultivation, it won't be too dangerous to investigate the distribution and stationing of the major forces of the Demon Race."

In fact, with the current situation in the Zhenwu World, even with their current cultivation level, it would not be very dangerous for them to investigate the bases of the major demon forces.

After all, with the destruction of the Bloodthirsty Demon Palace by Lin Chen and the restoration of the origin of the Heavenly Dao, many supreme sects and immortal families began to frequently appear in the Zhenwu World, scaring those powerful demons into hiding in their own palaces, no longer daring to be as high-profile as before.

In this situation, even if the major demon forces knew that someone was investigating them, the first thought in their minds was not revenge, but to hide and conceal themselves deeper.

However, the Cave Heaven Realm is just the Cave Heaven Realm after all. Such a strong man may be able to investigate the demon forces in the southeast region, but he is somewhat unable to investigate the demon forces in the other eight territories.

Because the distance is too far.

With the speed of a Cave Heaven Realm expert, even the nearest East Region and South Region would take hundreds or even thousands of years to travel through the void, not to mention other territories that are farther away? And it would take time to investigate.

In comparison, the situation is different for those at the Realm Lord level.

A strong man in the Cave Heaven Realm needs to spend hundreds or even thousands of years on the journey, but for a strong man in the Realm Lord Realm, it only takes ten to eight years or even less.

The most crucial thing is that the efficiency of the Realm Lord Realm powerhouses in investigating the major forces of the Demon Race is many times higher than that of the Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses.

Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood.

You can only gain if you give up something. (End of this chapter)
