The sky seemed to have a hole in it.
A massive amount of spirits surged forth from the breach.
Three hundred and thirty people rushed towards the sky, bathing in the ocean of spiritual energy.
Wow!
At a certain moment, an elderly man with gray hair suddenly radiated a dazzling golden light, and his aura seemed to have broken through a certain critical point.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"The Three Flowers Gather at the Top, the Five Elements Return to the Origin, Daoist Master, I see it! I finally see it! Hahaha!"
It turns out that the old man was a successor of the Celestial Masters sect, and had been at the peak of the Profound Realm for hundreds of years. He was one of the most outstanding cultivators among the hidden sects. To be able to cultivate to this level was to be a genius among geniuses. If it weren't for the suppression caused by the depletion of spiritual energy, he would probably have already achieved the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and the Five Qi Converging at the Origin.
However, this moment has not come too late!
Boom boom boom!
One powerful aura after another erupted.
All those present were at the peak of the Profound Realm or the Great Perfection of the Martial Saint realm. They were responding to Lin Yu's call and seeking an opportunity.
We've finally succeeded!
The Emperor did not deceive them, nor did he betray them.
This vow was worth it!
However, those who left their seats in the distance were filled with regret.
Who the hell has ever seen anything like this before?!
Since Pangu separated heaven and earth, there probably haven't been many times like this.
You must know that it is a spiritual essence, an existence on the same level as primordial spiritual energy. It was formed due to the compression of the dome for tens of thousands of years, and the conditions were extremely special, making it extremely rare even in ancient times.
Of course, it's a non-renewable resource, unlike in ancient times. But does it matter?
Whatever!
With such a large quantity, it's hard to imagine how many years it could last. Just like oil, it seems inexhaustible.
Moreover, the hole wasn't always open. The dome seemed to have a life of its own, and it was slowly repairing itself. In just a short while, the hole that Lin Yu and Taiyang had worked together to create had healed by one-third.
"Oh no, that vulnerability doesn't last forever! We need to hurry, or we'll miss out on everything!"
The hundreds of people who had originally left now had red eyes.
At this moment, they disregarded their pride and frantically ran towards the top of Tianchi Lake.
"Huh? You chose to leave yourselves, do you even deserve to steal our achievements?"
brush!
With a wave of his hand, Lin Yu sent a fire dragon soaring into the sky, turning the entire sky red.
The fire seemed to form a circle, enclosing the area with the leak.
Those who were leaving their seats were immediately blocked. Some of the leaders ignored the warnings and continued to rush forward, only to plunge headlong into the sea of fire and be instantly melted.
This immediately served as a warning to others, and the people behind dared not approach any further.
"Your Majesty! You are the Emperor, why are you so petty and narrow-minded!"
"That's right! You're too narrow-minded! You have no tolerance for others!"
"We just didn't agree to your oath, and you're turning us away like this? Don't you think that's going too far?"
"This is the resource of the entire cultivation world, why are you blocking us!"
"You are not worthy to be the Human Emperor!"
The crowd erupted in angry curses at Lin Yu, condemning him as the most hated person in the world.
However, Lin Yu simply smiled coldly at this.
"I am the emperor, I can take whatever I want!"
"But on the condition that you are my subjects!"
"Although you possess great strength and cultivation, you are unwilling to take responsibility and always want to stay out of things. You are unwilling to take risks but want to reach out and take benefits. Where is there such a good thing? Even a child knows that only by giving can you receive. Now you are criticizing me like this. You are not even as good as a child. It is really ridiculous!"
Faced with Lin Yu's response, everyone blushed and couldn't say a word.
Lin Yu is right!
They just don't want to take risks; they only want to reap the benefits.
After all, for a long time, they have been the pyramid of the entire human race, and have never had to worry about resources.
They can even get their branches, and even some prominent families in the mortal world, to offer them their best things simply by talking to them.
Having become accustomed to being waited on hand and foot, they are unlikely to be willing to make sacrifices or take on responsibilities.
After all, aren't cattle and horses meant to be used?
Who will take responsibility for the cattle and horses?
In fact, this is the mindset of most strong people, and even those who swore a poisonous oath to Lin Yu are not without such people.
But they are willing to swear a solemn oath, and that's enough; they have a stance, and that's enough.
In Lin Yu's eyes, a person without a stance is worthless and might as well be dead.
His motto was just one sentence: "A true man born between heaven and earth should not fail to benefit all living beings; that would be truly shameful."
Shameful people don't deserve to live!
But those cascading spirits were just too tempting.
Some people are already nearing the end of their lifespan, but they would rather risk their lives.
"Our lifespans are nearing their end; if we don't break through, we'll die anyway. We might as well fight to the death!"
"I'm willing to lend a hand, who will help me!"
"I am willing to die to fulfill the wishes of my fellow Daoists, solely to protest against the Emperor's dictatorship!"
Boom boom boom!
One master after another emerged.
Many are at the peak of the Profound Realm.
Such an outburst would likely force even immortals to temporarily retreat.
Because if an immortal makes a move, they will surely be punished by heaven!
They assumed that the Emperor only wanted to intimidate them and wouldn't dare to actually kill them.
Finally, several elders at the peak of the Profound Realm broke through the Heavenly Fire's blockade and arrived before Lin Yu. "Attack together! Hold him off, we'll take turns absorbing his spiritual essence!"
An old man made the first move, sending a large handprint towards Lin Yu.
The Great Handprint of Desolation!
