“I choose the second path!” Soon after, the Tri-Eyed Emperor raised his eyes, looked at Lin Yun, and declared with determination.
“Good, then I’ll cultivate you according to the second path!” Lin Yun said with a slight smile, knowing that true heroes know how to make choices. With his support, the Tri-Eyed Emperor was bound to become a formidable figure renowned across myriad realms.
“Here is a lower-grade godhood and a middle-grade godhood. Once you’ve refined the lower-grade one, you can start refining the middle-grade one, and then you’ll become a mid-level Divine Realm Practitioner!” Lin Yun flipped his hand and handed over two pieces of godhood to the Tri-Eyed Emperor.
“Tri-Eyed is deeply grateful, my Lord!” The Tri-Eyed Emperor took them and once again bowed in thanks.
“Mm, refine them well,” Lin Yun nodded in approval.
“In fact, with your Divine Eye Ability, which is something ordinary Divine Realm Practitioners do not possess, once you break through to the Divine Realm, you should familiarize yourself with your Divine Eye Ability. Ordinary practitioners of the same realm may not be your match!” Lin Yun said after a pause, with a faint smile on his face.
He had said so earlier just to test the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s determination, and now, it seemed like a pleasant surprise for the emperor too.
In truth, this was also one of the reasons why he was willing to offer a high-grade godhood artifact for cultivation later on; because other cultivators didn’t have the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s talent. If they were to refine godhood, they would just be ordinary beings of the Divine Realm, but if Tri-Eyed Emperor refined a high-grade godhood and reached the peak of the Divine Realm, he would indeed be somewhat stronger than an average peak Divine Realm Practitioner.
“Really?” Indeed, upon hearing Lin Yun’s words, the Tri-Eyed Emperor was overjoyed.
“There shouldn’t be a mistake about that, now you may leave,” Lin Yun nodded slightly and said.
After he had spoken, Lin Yun turned his head to look towards another direction where Xia Qingqing, Lin Mengmeng, Purple Cloud, and the others had sensed his presence and came over.
The Tri-Eyed Emperor tactfully excused himself.
In the following period, Lin Yun spent time with his friends and family of this life, and in his spare time, he provided guidance to his followers in their cultivation.
Three months later.
The Tri-Eyed Emperor became a mid-level Divine Realm Practitioner and triumphantly emerged from seclusion. He fought against Frubor and the Lily Emperor, defeating Frubor in three moves and the Lily Emperor in five.
His performance shocked all those who witnessed the battles, except for Lin Yun.
Subsequently, the Tri-Eyed Emperor sparred with Lin Yun. Lin Yun defeated the Tri-Eyed Emperor in just three moves, once again astonishing everyone present.
These people did not believe that Lin Yun and the Tri-Eyed Emperor were putting on an act, as based on their observations, the Blood Emperor’s naturally bestowed talents would not warrant such behavior.
Under the scrutiny of the public, any discovery of deceit would be greatly detrimental to one’s character, especially for the Blood Emperor who has demonstrated extraordinary and unparalleled talent—there was no need for him to do so.
Furthermore, the aura emitted by the Tri-Eyed Emperor and Lin Yun could not be faked, surpassing that of both Frubor and the Lily Emperor.
The facts proved that the strength of the Blood Emperor, whom they followed, was truly unfathomable.
After the battle.
“Indeed, Tri-Eyed, having reached the mid-level Divine Realm, is far stronger than ordinary practitioners of the same level. How could an ordinary practitioner swiftly defeat two lower-level Divine Realm Practitioners in just three and five moves?” Lin Yun nodded slightly, clearly very pleased with Tri-Eyed Emperor’s increase in strength.
On the other hand, Frubor and the Lily Emperor were quite frustrated after being defeated by the Tri-Eyed Emperor. They had worked hard to break through to the Divine Realm and surpassed the Tri-Eyed Emperor in strength, but upon the Blood Emperor’s return, they didn’t expect Lin Yun to so quickly elevate the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s power to a level far surpassing their own, leaving them feeling upset.
The aura emanating from the Tri-Eyed Emperor made them realize that he had surpassed them by a whole level—a feat not easily achieved through regular cultivation. Furthermore, the Blood Emperor had mentioned that the Tri-Eyed Emperor was an Acquired Ghost Practitioner, who couldn’t normally reach the Divine Realm. Likely, the Blood Emperor had given the Tri-Eyed Emperor something special.
It was then that Lin Yun stepped forward to defeat the Tri-Eyed Emperor, also using three moves, alleviating their frustration somewhat. After all, their strength paled in comparison to the Blood Emperor, who was far beyond anyone’s reach. However, a hint of that frustration still lingered.
Later, Lin Yun summoned them and told them about the Tri-Eyed Emperor’s process of refining godhood, mentioning its drawbacks, and gave them the choice to follow that path if they wished, promising rapid advancement to mid-level Divine Realm if they chose.
Only then did they understand the situation with the Tri-Eyed Emperor. Apparently, the Blood Emperor had sensed their thoughts and consequently informed them, leaving them ashamed of their previous mindset.
They let go of the slight resentment they held deep inside.
As for whether they wanted to choose the same path as the Tri-Eyed Emperor, honestly, they were tempted by the thought of quickly gaining much greater power. But they soon gave up the idea since they could become countably few powerful Ghost Practitioners in the Netherworld, filled with pride and not content with a path that would sacrifice their potential.
In the Netherworld, as the breakthrough to the fifty-fourth High Layered Heaven has only been made, with many more unbroken higher-layered heavens left, and with each new Layered Heaven broken through, a major opportunity would arise. With so many great opportunities yet to appear, how could they willingly choose such a path now?
Especially, Lin Yun had mentioned that the Tri-Eyed Emperor was a special case with the Divine Eye talent, which included control over the flow of time, an advanced Divine Ability, making him stronger than an ordinary mid-level Divine Realm Practitioner. If they chose this path, they would indeed become ordinary Divine Realm Practitioners.
