Chapter 805 Continuing the Scheme
The Ultimate System · 第805章 继续坑起
At the peak of the Guardian Land.
"Old man, I just got back and you invite me here—you must have a lot of questions for me, right?"
Lin Fan stepped out of the void passage, glancing left and right. This was truly his first time here.
What surprised Lin Fan was that there was another old man beside the old man.
But thinking about it, it made sense—being alone was too lonely, so naturally one would find someone to keep company.
"Is this your disciple? Quite a talent." The old man beside Feng Qingzi sized up Lin Fan and spoke.
He had only heard Feng Qingzi mention this disciple, especially when he heard that this disciple could fight fiercely against the ancient clan's supreme being—it left him astonished.
Among the countless races, the guardians of the four Guardian Lands could fight to the death with the ancient clan's supreme being.
As for other great cultivators, some had formidable cultivation, but they were still far from being able to contend with the ancient clan.
Unless, like the Water-Fire Emperor, one was exceptionally gifted and didn't need to attain the Eternal Throne—but how many such prodigies were there?
"Haha, I'm not a talent, I'm a genius. Old man, where's my Jie?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.
"Kid, tell me honestly, what happened in the end? How is Sheng?"
Feng Qingzi didn't answer Lin Fan's question but asked seriously.
This matter was very important to Feng Qingzi.
"Want to know?" Lin Fan smirked, thinking of a good idea. "I'm in urgent need of Sun-Yang Pills lately. If..."
"Here, this is all your master's Sun-Yang Pills."
Without any hesitation, Feng Qingzi opened his hand wide, and a vast river of Sun-Yang surged forth, with Sun-Yang dragons roaring ferociously as they flew out from his sleeve.
"Old man, so generous?" Lin Fan was stunned. He hadn't even finished speaking, yet Feng Qingzi was already so generous—it shocked Lin Fan.
Just a casual amount was one trillion Sun-Yang Pills. To Lin Fan, this was utterly astonishing.
"Alright, stop being mysterious and tell me quickly." Feng Qingzi's heart ached—that trillion Sun-Yang Pills was truly his entire savings.
Over the years, aside from covering the expenses of the Guardian Land, he had only saved this much.
Lin Fan didn't say much, but he felt grateful to the old man in his heart. Then, without hiding anything, he spoke directly.
"Sheng has been killed by me, and the Ancient Saint Altar is also in my hands."
"Indeed!"
Feng Qingzi and the other old man exchanged glances, their suspicions confirmed, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
"My good disciple, you've truly surprised your master. You didn't miss out on the Eternal Throne, did you?"
For Feng Qingzi, the slaying of the ancient clan's supreme being was exhilarating, but the most important thing was still the Eternal Throne.
"Heh, look, what's this?"
In an instant, Guheng appeared beside Lin Fan.
The moment Guheng appeared, a powerful aura burst forth.
Feng Qingzi and the others' expressions changed, immediately on alert, but then relaxed in an instant.
"This..." Feng Qingzi looked at the ancient clan member before him, utterly shocked.
Lin Fan laughed at the stunned expressions of the two old men.
"This is Guheng, the ancient clan's supreme being from ten thousand years ago, but now he has been subdued by me." Lin Fan said.
Now, with two supreme beings in hand, it was a formidable force. Even against a supreme being, victory was assured.
"Excellent, truly excellent."
Feng Qingzi let out a long cry, his mood uplifted. This was the most振奋人心的消息 in ten thousand years.
"Of course. Why would you have any doubts about my work? This time, because of the Ancient Saint Altar, I returned to the Xuanhuang Realm. Now the Xuanhuang Realm has been refined by me and is nurturing its first batch of power. But when I came up, I encountered the Heavenly Will." Lin Fan said.
"The Heavenly Will."
Hearing about the Heavenly Will, Feng Qingzi's expression turned serious.
"Now, with our current strength, we are evenly matched with the ancient clan's supreme being, but the key is the Heavenly Will."
"That time, I learned from the supreme being that the Guardian Land is just a glimmer of hope given by the Heavenly Will to the countless races. If the Heavenly Will truly awakens, the Guardian Land may cease to exist." Feng Qingzi said.
"How can that be?"
Lin Fan was hearing this for the first time. He had originally thought the Guardian Land was the only hope in the crisis, but he never expected it was a lifeline given by the Heavenly Will to the countless races.
"What benefit does the opening of all realms bring to the Heavenly Will?" Lin Fan asked.
"This question involves many things. Initially, the myriad realms were worlds without life, but the Heavenly Will of the Ancient Saint Realm already existed. To strengthen itself, the Heavenly Will of the Ancient Saint Realm let the myriad realms nurture life on their own, perfecting the rules of each world. When the time is right, the Heavenly Will of the Ancient Saint Realm will devour the myriad realms, breaking its own barriers and entering a higher level."
"A long, long time ago, traceable to the ancient turmoil period, the countless races didn't need to ascend. The Ancient Saint Realm was all ancient clans. Then, geniuses rose everywhere, dominating regions. The Heavenly Will wanted to devour the myriad realms but faced resistance. That time, the Heavenly Will failed, but the strong of the myriad realms were decimated, with less than one in ten surviving. Because the Heavenly Will had consumed too much, before falling asleep, to prevent this from happening again, it established the rule that all beings in the myriad realms must ascend upon reaching a certain cultivation level."
"This keeps the power of beings in the myriad realms weak, while allowing the ancient clans to slaughter and devour them, thus strengthening themselves."
Lin Fan listened to everything Feng Qingzi said, gaining some understanding.
So this was a case of once bitten, twice shy.
The Heavenly Will of the Ancient Saint Realm had also been foolish before, but after failing once, it revised the rules.
It seemed that this time, the Heavenly Will of the Ancient Saint Realm was determined to succeed.
But for Lin Fan, no matter how great the flood, if it dared to act recklessly, he would suppress it to the end.
"So that's how it is. But old man, where's my Jie?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Kid, can't you offer some opinion? Your Jie is here, don't worry." Feng Qingzi had spoken gravely just now, expecting the kid to make a grand speech, but who would have thought he had no interest at all—it left Feng Qingzi somewhat helpless.
"What's the use of talking now? Did you experience the ancient turmoil?" Lin Fan asked.
"No, I heard it from the older generation." Feng Qingzi said.
"There you go. Old man, let me tell you, people nowadays—one tells ten, ten tells a hundred, and in the end, it gets more and more terrifying. So don't overthink it. We'll deal with things as they come. When the time really comes, we'll study it properly." Lin Fan waved his hand and said.
"I need to take my Jie out. I'm in urgent need of Sun-Yang Pills lately. I'll find some strong cultivators to refine Sun-Yang Pills for me exclusively."
Lin Fan's only thought now was to find some strong cultivators, forcibly convert them, and have them refine Sun-Yang Pills for him day and night.
Also, he would rob some ancient clan strongholds, clean them out completely, and accumulate enough Sun-Yang Pills. Then it would be time to truly take off.
"Alright, I'm done talking. I'm off. I see this Guardian Land isn't very safe anymore. Are you familiar with the guardians of the other three Guardian Lands?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Why do you ask?" Feng Qingzi asked.
"If you're familiar with them, tell them to contribute some Sun-Yang Pills. If not, I'll go and swindle them." Lin Fan said.
Feng Qingzi looked at his disciple and finally shook his head silently. "Not too familiar."
"Hey, hey..."
After Feng Qingzi said that, Lin Fan directly left the place.
"This kid doesn't know the first thing about respecting his teacher." Feng Qingzi was speechless that the kid left without a word.
"Haha, your disciple is interesting."
"Sigh, I don't know how I ended up taking a liking to this kid back then." Feng Qingzi shook his head and said.
