NOVPUBChapter 992: Chapter 875: The Name of the Blood Emperor_2 Chapter 992: Chapter 875: The Name of the Blood Emperor_2 The expanse of gray fog was too vast, its speed of expansion too swift, making escape difficult even for cultivators of the superlative realm, let alone the lesser cultivators on Earth.
“If I’m not mistaken, there should be an invisible passage here connecting to the Netherworld, and now, this passage has also been broken. These Ghost Practitioners are coming from the Netherworld…” True Martial Saint Lord said with a tinge of bitterness.
The Immortal Origin World had been thoroughly destroyed. He hadn’t expected that in the end, it would not fall into the hands of Langya Saint Lord but into the hands of Ghost Practitioners from the Netherworld.
Thousands of years ago, he and the other seventy-two disciples had followed Taoists Ancestor Er Lee, growing stronger step by step, and had eventually established the Immortal Origin World, one of the cosmic pinnacle realms. He spent most of his life living in the Immortal Origin World.
Now, seeing the spirits of the Immortal Origin World in such dire straits, utterly ruined, his mood was not good.
“The Netherworld… So these Ghost Practitioners really are from the Netherworld…” Lin Yun took a deep breath and spoke softly.
In fact, he had his suspicions earlier, but it was only after hearing True Martial Saint Lord’s words that he felt certain.
He hadn’t realized that the connection between the Netherworld and the universe of spirits would result in such terrible consequences.
No wonder, True Martial Saint Lord had said earlier that this was a catastrophe for their universe.
No wonder, True Martial Saint Lord had previously shown mercy to those Saint Lords. Lin Yun thought pensive thoughts to himself.
In this kind of catastrophe, the power of nine Saint Lords could indeed be of significant use.
Take what happened just now; if not for those nine Saint Lords drawing away some of the more powerful Ghost Practitioners, he and True Martial Saint Lord would not have been able to escape that gray fog so smoothly.
However, the fate of those nine Saint Lords… was not good to say…
Lin Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly.
When in the midst of the gray fog earlier, although he hadn’t paid deliberate attention, he had seen that two or three Saint Lords seemed to have been killed by those top Ghost Practitioners. As for the remaining Saint Lords, likely very few managed to escape the gray fog in the end.
“What do we do next?” Lin Yun turned his head to look at True Martial Saint Lord and asked.
At this moment, he truly didn’t know what to do. The sudden breakout a moment ago had left the Immortal Origin World and Earth in disarray, not to mention, there were many very powerful Ghost Practitioners within the gray fog.
Rushing back in to rescue people was not realistic for him now, and also, he wasn’t the type to sacrifice himself for others, especially since those people were not closely related to him.
He could set fair rules for them, he could avoid oppressing them and prevent others from doing so, but to lay down his life to save them was out of the question.
Looking at the reaction of the Immortal Origin World inhabitants just now, he was the Lord of Immortal Origin, but how many of them had obeyed his command to confront Langya Saint Lord?
As they say, a gentleman has things he does and things he doesn’t do. He may lay down his life for True Martial Saint Lord but would not for those people, otherwise, forget being a gentleman, he would be an absolute fool.
“I sensed just now that among those top Ghost Practitioners, many are at the level of Peak Saint Lords, and with this passage just now being broken, we still don’t know if more formidable Ghost Practitioners will appear. You are no match for them at all. Right now, our only choice is to leave this place as soon as possible, wait for your strength to improve, wait for you to break through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe…” True Martial Saint Lord closed his eyes, sighed faintly, and said.
If he had not been poisoned by the Netherworld Water, if his strength had not been decreased, perhaps he could change the current situation, perhaps he could save many people. Now, it was impossible. 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝒐𝒎
“Break through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe?” Lin Yun’s heart tightened.
He had heard True Martial Saint Lord bring up this topic many times already, and even Langya Saint Lord had, because of this, betrayed the Immortal Origin World. He had gone so far as to slay his own Senior Brothers, kill his ancestor’s mother, and murder all his kinsmen.
Breaking through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe, New Layered Heaven, could one really gain tremendous benefits?
Quickly, he thought of the dozens of Sanctuary powerhouses that had continuously emerged from the Immortal Origin World thousands of years ago… A sense of agreement gradually formed in his heart. Perhaps, breaking through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe could indeed confer immense advantages.
Perhaps that was why Langya Saint Lord became so mad, right?
“Yes, I have a premonition that even if I recover my strength, I might not be able to withstand this catastrophe. Perhaps, only if you break through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe and gain the powerful blessings of heaven and earth, then you may be able to stop this catastrophe. You must elevate your strength as soon as possible…” True Martial Saint Lord nodded slightly while speaking.
“It’s a pity, the recent upheaval caused the Immortal Origin World’s millennia of accumulated essence to scatter who knows where. Otherwise, your strength could have quickly risen to the third level of the superlative realm…” he paused, and True Martial Saint Lord spoke regretfully.
If Lin Yun’s realm were to rise to the third level of the superlative realm, then the hope of breaking through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe would be greater. If he were only at the second level of the superlative realm, it was uncertain whether it would be possible. Once unable to break through, and the difficulty increased, even if Lin Yun’s realm were to rise to the third level of the superlative realm, it was not guaranteed that he could break through the thirty-fourth Layered Heaven of this universe.
“True Martial Saint Lord, you need not worry. I just picked up some fragments of the Immortal Origin World’s millennial essence and, in addition, I obtained a lower-grade Crystal from a Ghost Practitioner of Saint Lord level, which is also a very powerful natural treasure. It should not take long for me to enhance my strength…” Seeing this, Lin Yun spoke in an attempt to reassure.
