Chapter 685

You want people? I'm here.

Cultivation knows no time; ten thousand years pass in the blink of an eye.

Unbeknownst to them, tens of thousands of years had passed since Lin Yang went into seclusion again.

One day, a shocking secret was revealed in the Chu Kingdom.

The Grand Elder Zhen Sheng has successfully reached the half-step Dao realm and has emerged from seclusion!
The news caused significant volatility at high levels.

This means that the Chu Kingdom is the only super kingdom in this era to have two experts who have reached the level of a half-step cultivator!

Far surpassing all other forces!

Within Lanlou, the expressions of Wan Fei, Tian Heng, and several other elders were not very pleasant.

"That old bastard Zhen Sheng actually took this step..."

There was a hint of envy in Tianheng's tone.

He was just a little short of reaching the half-step path, but unfortunately, his years of seclusion always left him just short, forcing him to temporarily give up his obsession.

Now that Zhen Sheng has successfully broken through, he is somewhat envious, but at the same time, it also ignites a desire to continue striving.

“Zhen Sheng has broken through, and with the king absent, he might come to our Lanlou Kingdom to seek revenge.” Wan Fei said with some worry.

Tianheng nodded slightly: "He will definitely come, but there's no need to worry too much. There's a magic array suppressing him in the capital, so he can't cause any trouble."

Wan Fei gave a wry smile: "I'm not afraid of him coming to the capital, I'm afraid he'll attack people outside."

Upon hearing this, Tianheng and Yanhao's expressions changed slightly, becoming somewhat unnatural.

Of course, within the capital, they were not afraid of someone at the half-step level causing trouble.

However, apart from the capital, other places cannot guard against a being who is deliberately targeting them at the half-step level.

After a pause, Tianheng said softly, "If it were just Zhen Sheng alone, I wouldn't be afraid of him with the supreme treasure Dao weapon that protects the country. At least I could hold him off for a while. But with Xu Shanzang and a few other old guys around, it's a bit more troublesome."

Yan Hao and the others nodded involuntarily upon hearing this.

Even if Tianheng can hold back Zhensheng now.

The four of them had little chance of defeating the other elders of the Upper Kingdom.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, and Ting Lie's injuries have healed.

First of all, they are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.

Moreover, Xushanzang's strength is a notch above theirs.

They will have a hard time holding off those old guys from Xushanzang.

"If Lin Yang could also take a small step and come out of seclusion now, that would be great. I don't expect him to reach the half-step Dao realm, but just to reach the level of Xu Shanzang, who is only a hair's breadth away from the half-step Dao realm."

Wan Fei suddenly sighed.

Lin Yang's seclusion this time has lasted for nearly 60,000 to 70,000 years.

Previously, it took Lin Yang less than 100,000 years to go from the Transformation Realm to the Tribulation Realm.

This seclusion is almost as long as the time it took him to break through from the Transformation Realm to the Tribulation Realm, but there is still no sign of him emerging from seclusion.

But this also made Wan Fei and the others even more reluctant to easily interrupt Lin Yang's seclusion.

They all knew that, given Lin Yang's personality, if he couldn't make any further progress in his seclusion, he would definitely come out and wouldn't waste any more time.

This time, being able to go into seclusion for so many years must have been very rewarding.

Therefore, they never considered waking Lin Yang to help hold off one or two elders of the Chu Kingdom.

However, with Lin Yang absent and Zhen Sheng having already broken through, they were indeed under great pressure.

"Let's see how things go first, and drag it out for as long as we can."

Then, Tianheng sighed softly and stopped discussing the matter. Instead, he asked everyone to adjust their state and recalled some Dao Realm experts who were outside.

It can reduce some casualties.

However, after Zhen Sheng left the pass, he did not immediately go to Lanlou Kingdom. Instead, a thousand years passed before he finally arrived in Lanlou Kingdom with Xu Shanzang and the others.

"What was bound to happen has finally happened."

In the capital, Tianheng and his companions exchanged glances, then rose from the ground and soared into the air to meet the gazes of Zhensheng and the others.

"Tianheng, hand over that brat, and we might not have to bother with your Lanlou Kingdom so much. Otherwise, this time, at least half of your Lanlou Kingdom will die!"

Zhen Sheng was a tall, thin man with dark, sinister eyes. He looked at Tian Heng and the others and spoke in a detached tone.

His words lacked strong emotion, as if he were merely discussing a trivial matter.

But the ruthlessness and chill in his tone were bone-chilling.

He openly declared his intention to annihilate at least half the population of the Lanlou Kingdom.

Tianheng's expression changed slightly: "Zhensheng, you've only just broken through, and you're already planning to commit such an act of annihilation? Aren't you afraid of being completely hopeless on the path to enlightenment in the future?"

He did not refute Zhen Sheng's words.

Because Zhen Sheng can indeed do what he says.

He wields a national treasure-level Dao weapon and possesses strength above the half-step Dao realm.

In the present state of Lanlou, no one can stop them!
They could only rely on the magical array power of the capital city to protect themselves.

As for the ruler.

Although they were notified, they did not receive an effective response.

Clearly, the Chu Kingdom must have informed Chu Jin that they would obstruct the return of the Lanlou Kingdom's ruler.

Zhen Sheng's expression was indifferent: "The path to enlightenment is too far away; I only care about today."

"Tianheng, I'll give you the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to consider. Will you hand over the person, or will I unleash a massacre right here today?"

Tianheng's eyes darkened: "Zhensheng, no need for further words. You want to go on a killing spree? It won't be that easy!"

boom.

As soon as they spoke, Tianheng and the others unleashed their respective Daoist weapons and magical treasures, and immediately began to fight.

"Overestimating yourself." Zhen Sheng waved his sleeve, and a vast amount of Dao power pressed down.

In an instant, Tianheng and the others suddenly felt their bodies become heavy.

“Zhen Sheng, you…” Tian Heng’s expression changed again.

The power of Zhen Sheng after his breakthrough was far greater than he had imagined.

In just one encounter, they were completely outmatched.

"Even if I regret it now, it's too late."

Zhen Sheng spoke coldly, suppressing Tian Heng while his Dao power swept across the area outside the array's coverage.

Even though Tianheng and the others had done their best to disperse the population and block Zhensheng's power, many people still died from Zhensheng's attack.

"Tianheng, this is just the beginning. Today, I will slaughter every place in your Lanlou Kingdom except for the capital!" A cold smile appeared on Zhen Sheng's lips.

Tianheng felt a sudden tremor in his heart, but he couldn't utter a single word.

The strength of the poison far exceeded his expectations.

When faced with absolute overwhelming power, nothing you say matters.

Before Zhen Sheng could make another move, Ting Lie coldly shouted, "Tian Heng, are you really not going to hand over the person?"

His hatred for Lin Yang was the strongest!
Killing the people of Lanlou Kingdom wasn't that important; he wanted to kill Lin Yang more!
Tianheng did not respond, but said in a low voice, "What your Chu Kingdom has done today, my Lanlou Kingdom will repay in kind in the future!"

"Fine, very well!" Ting Lie's face instantly turned cold. "Then let's watch as your Lanlou Kingdom is largely destroyed!"

hum.

Zhen Sheng made his move again.

A far more vast power than before began to engulf a wider area, preparing to massacre the city.

However, at this moment.

A silver spear pierced through the void, pointing directly at Zhen Sheng.

At the same time, a figure soared into the sky from within the capital, rushing into the void and blocking all of Zhen Sheng's power.

It was Lin Yang.

"Zhen Sheng, you want people? I'm coming." (End of Chapter)
