Chapter 1027: Chapter 892 Two Options_2 Chapter 1027: Chapter 892 Two Options_2 “During this period, we have also gathered clear information about that Lin Yun and the True Martial Saint Lord, both from a place called the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Among them, Lin Yun is only in his thirties…” the mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner said slowly.
“In his thirties…” Upon hearing this mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner until here, the other Ghost Practitioners couldn’t help but their expressions change. They had already known this information, but hearing it again still caused their hearts to tremble.
Although, when they encountered Lin Yun last time, his strength was still far inferior to theirs, his immense power at such a young age was terrifying indeed. This was precisely why they actually feared Lin Yun the most.
In his thirties, possessing such terrifying strength, then, after breaking through the thirty-fourth layer of the universe and another five years passing, how strong must his power have become?
They really couldn’t wait any longer.
Lin Yun was a significant threat and had to be eliminated quickly.
“To sum up, Lin Yun seems to be a man of deep emotions. If we use the humans from the Immortal Origin Holy Land to threaten him, he is unlikely to remain indifferent…” the mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner concluded after recounting some matters concerning Lin Yun.
The universe they had opened, along with the second passage to the Netherworld, was within the bounds of the Immortal Origin World. However, not all of the humans in the Immortal Origin World, including those from the old Earth of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, had been killed.
It was fortunate that the dominion over spirits in both the Immortal Origin World and Earth was held by humans. They knew much about the information of spirit species, understanding that humans are the epitome of all spirits, starting weak, but capable of rapid growth.
After invading this universe, they realized this point and discovered that the universe was actually an unopened one. They then decided to turn this universe into a breeding ground and started to restrain their subordinates, prohibiting them from slaughtering humans in the Immortal Origin World and on Earth indiscriminately.
Therefore, the humans in both the Immortal Origin World and on Earth managed to survive, despite such circumstances.
“Unfortunately, we realized too late that this was an unopened universe. Most of the humans from the Immortal Origin World and Earth had already been killed. Otherwise, more spirits, might have had an even greater effect…” said the mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner with a sigh inwardly.
“As expected!” Some lower-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners thought to themselves upon hearing the words of the mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner. The situation was not complicated; in fact, they had also thought of it earlier but had never mentioned it.
“Given how weak those people are, and with Lin Yun and the True Martial Saint Lord being so strong, would they care about their lives?” Some other lower-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners voiced their doubts.
“Indeed, which of us mighty ones hasn’t emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood? Why should we care about the lives of those mere ants?” Another lower-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner nodded slightly, agreeing.
In the midst of talking, he also glanced back at a crowd of Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners in the distance.
Considering his past, some of those Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners were his subordinates. However, if there were a way to sacrifice those subordinates to strengthen himself, he wouldn’t hesitate to choose to sacrifice them.
Even, he had been pondering over the fact that this universe also had some Saint Lord Level spirits, but their realms weren’t very strong. If they, the Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners, devoured them, they too could increase their strength, but to a limited extent.
He was wondering whether to let those Saint Lord Level spirits consume a few of his subordinates first, allowing them to grow stronger before he devoured them.
“So, Lin Yun’s age is his weakness. Such a young spirit can’t have a mature psychology, and coupled with his character, if we threaten him with the lives of those humans from the Immortal Origin Holy Land, it will be difficult for him not to be moved!” the mid-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner, a Tri-Headed Dog, spoke with a slight grimace.
“And if he still doesn’t show up?” a persistent lower-level Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner questioned. This Ghost Practitioner had the appearance of a Bull Head and presumably carried Boivin genes, which might account for some of his bull-like temperament.
“Then we’ll kill those humans from the Immortal Origin Holy Land!” the Tri-Headed Dog’s gaze turned cold as he spoke.
“Kill… And then what?” A line of Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners choked up, with one of them querying.
The other Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners also looked towards the Tri-Headed Dog.
Indeed, if they kill them and Lin Yun still doesn’t appear, what then?
“That would be the worst-case scenario. By then, we can’t keep waiting. As tempting as it is for an unopened universe to become our breeding ground, we can’t monopolize this universe anymore. We must let stronger Ghost Practitioners get involved in this matter, even if they get the meat and we only get a little soup. It’s still better than giving up on the universe entirely and getting nothing…” the Tri-Headed Dog said gravely.
“Stronger Ghost Practitioners?” The other Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners’ expressions changed.
An unopened universe becoming their breeding ground was a benefit they fully understood could be a continuous source of resources for them, potentially a tremendous force for their rise in the Netherworld.
Once they divulge this information to stronger Ghost Practitioners, the best outcome would indeed be that they could only drink soup. Worse yet, they might not receive anything at all, and the disparity between those two outcomes is not minor.
“Actually, among Lin Yun and the True Martial Saint Lord, the greatest threat to us is Lin Yun. Brother Mastiff is right. Lin Yun is very young, and that is his biggest weakness. If we threaten him with the lives of so many of his clan members, he will definitely be moved. Even if he doesn’t come out in the end, his spirit will have been greatly affected. At that time, it will be extremely difficult for him to cultivate to higher realms…” A lower Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Hearing the words of the lower Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner, the other Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners turned their heads to look. One of them spoke up, “Brother Wood, are you suggesting…”
“What I mean is, perhaps we don’t need to tell those more powerful Ghost Practitioners about this matter! If Lin Yun’s strength can no longer grow, he’s simply not our match!” The Ghost Practitioner who had just spoken, which was the one referred to as Brother Wood, with a face as green as nature itself, bit his teeth and said after hearing these words.
Listening to his words, the other Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners seemed thoughtful.
“Brother Wood’s reasoning is very sound!
We are all aware of the difficulty for a powerful being to cultivate in an unopened universe!
If Lin Yun’s spirit is affected, his progress may become even more difficult in the future!
Moreover, when he entered the Heavenly Principle Tower, he was only at the third layer of the Superlative realm, his strength merely comparable to an upper Saint Lord. Even if he breaks through to the Saint Lord Realm, he might not have the strength to threaten us!
Once he breaks through to the Saint Lord Realm, he won’t be able to stay in this universe for much longer!
We just need to wait until he leaves this universe, and this unopened universe will fall into our hands!
At most, it will take one million years to see the outcome!”
A Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioner was moved and nodded in agreement.
For them, who are such mighty beings, one million years is just the blink of an eye.
Although the space channel connecting a spirit universe and the Netherworld will slowly repair itself over time, they can actively reinforce the space channel and use some special methods to maintain the channel between the universe and the Netherworld for hundreds of millions, even billions, of years.
In this way, owning an unopened universe as their breeding ground would be greatly beneficial, well worth the risk they were taking.
“No! We can’t gamble!
Don’t forget the other piece of information we have obtained!
Under normal circumstances, it’s very hard for the top cultivators of an unopened spirit universe to make further progress!
But, thousands of years ago, this spirit universe produced a powerful being named Er Lee!
In just a few thousand years, he led dozens of people to break through more than ten layers of heaven in this universe!
He even helped these people cultivate dozens of Saint Lords and a few Saint Lord Level powerhouses within thousands of years!
Now, Lin Yun has already broken the thirty-fourth layer of heaven in this universe, and with the assistance of the True Martial Saint Lord who has experienced those events before, would his cultivation speed really be slow?
Let’s not talk about cultivating to the Saint Lord Realm in a few thousand years; he only needs to reach the upper Saint Lord Realm, the Peak Saint Lord Realm, and we would find it hard to deal with him!
We really could end up with nothing if we take such a risk!”
Right at that moment, the Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner shook its head, very certain in saying so.
“If we threaten him with the humans of Immortal Origin Holy Land and Lin Yun still doesn’t come out, we only have two choices!
First, we inform some powerful Ghost Practitioners about this place, they get the meat, and we get the soup!
Second, we quickly slay all the spirits of this spirit universe, and then we can abandon this spirit universe!” The Tri-Headed Dog’s gaze flashed with determination as it spoke.
