Cosmic Trading System

That special resource could only elevate his realm by one level, but was unable to raise the realm of Langya Saint Lord by one level.

It made sense, after all. He was merely at the second level of the super realm; to advance one more level would only bring him to the third level of the super realm.

Whereas Langya Saint Lord was already in the upper echelon of the Saint Lord Realm, and the next step up for him would be Peak Saint Lord.

The resources required by the two were undeniably on a different scale.

Nevertheless, True Martial Saint Lord only spoke such words previously in order to persuade him to agree to take over Immortal Origin Holy Land.

Therefore, his conflict with Langya Saint Lord wasn't significant, whereas his conflict with Chu Lee was, perhaps Chu Lee also wanted that special resource?

Could it be because Chu Lee was Langya Saint Lord's disciple, and, when Chu Lee had plotted against him initially, he ended up at the losing end, so Langya Saint Lord took a disliking to him, which was why he was not agreeable to him becoming the Lord of Immortal Origin before?

Upon thinking of this, everything seemed to make sense.

"Master!!"

Hearing Lin Yun's words, Chu Lee quickly turned to Langya Saint Lord and said nervously,

He had just witnessed the power Lin Yun demonstrated, which was only slightly less than his master, Langya Saint Lord. If his master didn't care about him, he would almost surely be doomed.

At over three hundred years of age, he had cultivated to reach his current realm, with a boundless future ahead, naturally, he did not wish to die.

At this moment, he deeply regretted his past actions. If he had known how formidable Lin Yun was now, he would have never plotted against him, or rather, he should have gone all out against Lin Yun from the beginning, leaving no place for him to be buried.

"You blamed me for causing trouble earlier, and now you're blaming my disciple. You, as the Lord of Immortal Origin, really play by your own rules! But let me tell you, your domineering ways won't work on me, Langya. How my disciple behaves is my business as a master to discipline, it's not for you, the Lord of Immortal Origin, to worry about," Langya Saint Lord said with a cold smile.

As he spoke, Langya Saint Lord turned around, leaving behind a parting remark.

"I've heard that you come from the remnants of Immortal Origin Holy Land, and that there are still some of your people there? Don't push me to my limits, or I wouldn't mind reducing the old lands of Immortal Origin Holy Land to ashes!"

The voice of Langya Saint Lord was indifferent, yet it contained a trace of extreme coldness.

It left no doubt that if Lin Yun persisted, he would truly obliterate Earth.

"Buzz!"

A spatial fluctuation arose, and Langya Saint Lord and Chu Lee disappeared without a trace.

"Damn it!"

Lin Yun clenched his fists and said with a grim expression.

The words of Langya Saint Lord prevented him from stopping Langya Saint Lord from leaving with Chu Lee.

Earth was his homeland; he was only in his thirties, and it had been just over a decade since he left Earth. There were still many ties in his heart for Earth, and while Langya Saint Lord could use the survival of Earth as a threat, he could not remain indifferent.

"Lin Yun, Langya Saint Lord also came from Earth. The words he just said were probably just a bluff. There's no need to rush. Your potential is great. In no time, your strength will surpass Langya Saint Lord's. By then, he probably won't act like this anymore," the Holy Mother stepped forward, sighed slightly, and said.

After all, this was a world where strength was respected. Currently, Lin Yun's power was inferior to Langya Saint Lord's, and so Langya Saint Lord's arrogant words were understandable. Once Lin Yun's power surpassed Langya Saint Lord's, his demeanor was likely to change naturally, not necessarily deliberately, but as a natural shift.

"I understand," Lin Yun nodded expressionlessly.

Whether Langya Saint Lord was just talking or not, only he himself knew. Lin Yun did not wish to speculate about that.

Whoosh!

Meanwhile, Lin Yun's figure also disappeared, returning to Immortal Origin Holy Land.

Lin Yun planned to quickly deal with Immortal Origin Holy Land's matters, then return to check on Earth. On one hand, Langya Saint Lord's words had raised his concern for Earth. He wasn't necessarily worried that Langya Saint Lord would do harm to Earth.

Instead, it had been over a decade since he left Earth. At that time, Earth was in great turmoil, and he wondered whether it had settled down by now.

From the Holy Mother, he learned that over the years, she had been staying in Layered Heaven Blessed Land within Immortal Origin Holy Land to cultivate. A day in Layered Heaven Blessed Land was a year on Earth. Although the Holy Mother looked after Earth, the difference in time meant that some things might not have been taken care of.

On the other hand, there was the matter of Little White and Little Blue within the Bloodthirsty Sword. True Martial Saint Lord had said that it was best to deal with Little White and Little Blue's situation as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once they completely merged with the Bloodthirsty Sword, even with the help of the Yin-Yang Trees that gave birth to them, it might be impossible to separate Little White and Little Blue from the Bloodthirsty Sword.

"We must hasten the improvement of Lin Yun's strength..." Watching the place where Lin Yun had disappeared, the Holy Mother murmured softly.

True Martial Saint Lord would be leaving this universe soon, and it would be best to raise Lin Yun's strength before his departure. Otherwise, if Lin Yun's power fell short compared to Langya Saint Lord's, and without True Martial Saint Lord to keep him in check, she feared it would lead to more trouble.

The recent events had intensified her concern.

...

"What's happening..."

"Such a huge disturbance, seems to have affected the entire cosmic space?"

"Could it be the end of the world?"

The moment when the universe connected with the Netherworld, many cultivators across the universe were also shocked.

They looked up at the sky, unsure where the tremor originated, feeling it surge from all directions.

Only some cultivators who had participated in the Heavenly Principle Fruit Tournament vaguely recalled the parting words left by True Martial Saint Lord when he departed the tournament venue.
