Cultivation Begins with Skill Points

"I also wonder what kind of title Senior Brother Zhong will have after breaking through to the King Realm?"

Watching the people around discussing, Gu Chen felt as if a bucket of ice water was poured over his head, chilling him to the core.

"Master... Master."

Gu Chen didn't know what kind of feelings he should express.

Happy?

No.

Desperate?

Not quite.

Resentful?

Not achievable.

Just very disheartened, feeling like he lost something most important.

Gu Chen lowered his head, silent and mumbled as he looked at the blazing flame in his hand.

Crack!

With a sharp sound, Gu Chen's figure vanished.

"Master, one day I will surpass you."

Gu Chen uttered a low murmur.

He needed to find new opportunities to make himself stronger.

...

Zhong Lin slowly opened his eyes, the Wuhuang Holy Tower transformed into a stream of light and entered his dantian, occupying a space along with the Form and Spirit Sect and the Donghuang Bell.

With the acknowledgment of the Wuhuang Holy Tower, the entire Wuhuang Secret Realm trembled constantly.

"Quickly leave, the Wuhuang Secret Realm is about to collapse."

"How did this happen?"

"Quickly crush the jade token to leave."

Feeling the changes in the entire Wuhuang Secret Realm, many Martial Artists' faces changed drastically, not daring to linger, they quickly crushed their jade tokens to leave the Secret Realm.

"Indeed, the Wuhuang Secret Realm was far too vast, not something a mere Imperial Realm expert could open. Wuhuang merely stumbled upon this place in ancient times, then forcefully stabilized it with the Wuhuang Holy Tower to create a trial ground, but it collapsed along with the tower's acknowledgement."

Zhong Lin sighed lightly, and with a flickering movement, also left.

"Look quickly, they have all come out."

"I wonder if anyone obtained the Wuhuang Inheritance?"

"There should be!"

"Hard to say, Wuhuang was a peerless expert from ancient times, even founding a Holy Land, not just anyone can catch his eye."

As people from the Secret Realm were forcibly teleported out, many great abilities waiting outside were alarmed, rushing forward to inquire about the situation. When they learned Zhong Lin acquired the inheritance, their gazes shifted, not knowing what thoughts were running through their minds.

But to Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, there was immense envy, with many forces starting to show interest because this was an Emperor's Inheritance, from Wuhuang himself, who founded a Holy Land in ancient times.

An Emperor's Inheritance can significantly boost the foundation of a Holy Land, whether it's the Emperor's Cultivation Technique, Divine Skills, Secret Technique, or resources accumulated by the Emperor, all could drive people mad.

"Void King, if I remember correctly, this Zhong Lin is the junior who previously obtained the Undying Evil Emperor's inheritance, causing trouble for God Desolate King."

Wind and Thunder King from Thunderbolt Sacred Land suddenly spoke.

The mention made God Desolate King's face darken as a coldness flashed in his eyes.

Void King's brows also furrowed, hearing the pit in Wind and Thunder King's tone; he coldly said, "So what if he is?"

"The Undying Evil Emperor was merely a Loose Cultivator in ancient times. Although the 'Undying Scripture' claims immortality, it strictly speaking is just a Turtle Technique. But Wuhuang was different, he founded a Holy Land in ancient times, and had it not been for a surprise attack by the Blood Demon Clan, he might even have broken through to the God Realm, ascending to a deity."

"What exactly are you implying?" Void King impatiently interrupted.

"Fine, I'll be direct then."

Wind and Thunder King glanced at the leaders of various Holy Lands and raised his voice, "There must be numerous resources in the Wuhuang Inheritance. Now, with two-realm war impending, we must quickly convert these into combat strength."

"Us?" Void King sneered, "Wind and Thunder King, have you misunderstood, or do you have some thoughts you shouldn't have?"

Faced with Void King's mockery, Wind and Thunder King's expression didn't change as he continued, "You should know, ever since the start of this two-realm war, the Blood Demon Clan has always held the upper hand while we Qingyuan World Human Clan could only desperately resist, eventually relying on the advantage of home territory to exchange dead for wounded, forcefully stalling the Blood Demon Clan's advance until the passage closed. And according to multiple Emperor's observations, the distance between Qingyuan World and Blood Flower Realm is getting closer, meaning the passage will stay open longer. This two-realm war will be the most brutal in ten thousand years, so we must find ways to increase strength."

"So you're thinking of breaking the alliance to seize a junior's chance?" Void King mocked.

"Not exactly, as Sealing King Martial Artists, you're aware that one needs enlightenment rather than resources for further advancement. Unless it's a true celestial treasure, it does little for our cultivation improvement, but for younger talents it's different. If supported by Wuhuang's leftover treasures, their cultivation will undoubtedly increase significantly, possibly breaking through to the King Realm before the war arrives. You understand the importance of King Realm Martial Artists to war." Wind and Thunder King stated.

"Nonsense."

Even the good-natured Void King couldn't help but curse, "So self-righteous, still just trying to seize others' opportunities. Wind and Thunder King, when did your face become so thick?"

"It's not only my thought, surely everyone agrees, right?"

Wind and Thunder King ignored Void King's anger, but rather asked other Sealing King experts across various Holy Lands.

None answered him, though silence was the best answer.

Void King's face grew grim.

The Emperor's Inheritance was indeed extremely important, especially when aligned with the critical point of the two-realm war, everyone wanted a piece of it. Otherwise, they wouldn't have jointly pressured True Yang Sacred Land to open the Wuhuang Secret Realm, only now it became Heavenly Sword Sacred Land's possession.

Heavenly Sword Sacred Land was the strongest, but couldn't possibly resist all the other Holy Lands alone, especially when some were even stronger than Heavenly Sword Sacred Land.

Buzz!

Along with the spatial tremor, Zhong Lin's figure appeared.

With a face full of smiles earlier, he instantly sensed something wrong in the heavy atmosphere ahead.

Stepping forward, he appeared directly behind Void King, his eyes sweeping across the kings in front, smilingly said, "Elder Taixu, the Wuhuang Holy Tower has been refined by me, want to borrow it? Oh, and the Form and Spirit Sect too, you can borrow them together."

"Hahaha, good kid, Xi Xuan truly accepted a good disciple, keep the Emperor's Artifact safe for now." Void King heavily patted Zhong Lin's shoulder, full of smiles.

After speaking, he turned towards Wind and Thunder King and raised his voice, "The Wuhuang Holy Tower is now property of Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, don't think you can use any pesky righteousness to exert pressure. If you want it, come take it yourself, we Heavenly Sword Sacred Land never succumb to threats."

Wind and Thunder King stepped forward with a laugh, "Void King, don't misunderstand, the East Desolation Ten Domains are interlinked, especially with the imminent two-realm war, it won't do good to make foes fast over friends."

Finished speaking with a meaningful smile, he then turned and left.
