573: Bloodbath in Yunque City, Lucky Beizhiyao (42k)

Lin Yang didn't say much, stood up, and smiled: "If the Inspector has no other instructions, I will return to cultivate first."

Hao Fang's eyes flashed. He stared deeply at Lin Yang for a moment, nodded, and smiled: "Please, do as you please."

Lin Yang's reluctance to become the City Lord was beyond his expectations.

However, it was merely a slight surprise.

In Kunyu Country, there was no shortage of people who wanted to be City Lord.

It was just...

"Refusing to be the City Lord, is it because you don't want to accept this connection with Kunyu Country?"

Hao Fang watched Lin Yang's departing back, his eyes flickering: "It is quite interesting. Does he think his talent is so exceptional that this Kunyu Country is too small for him?"

Although Hao Fang felt it was a pity, he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, Lin Yang's strength was indeed extraordinary, and he couldn't force him to be the City Lord. Besides, what would happen after the Guiyuan Realm was still uncertain.

Inside the Villa.

Lin Yang sat down cross-legged.

This Time, there were finally no accidents to interrupt his seclusion.

"With sufficient resources and Lingyuan Liquid, if I'm lucky, I might be able to step into the Returning Origin Realm in one go."

Before officially improving, Lin Yang adjusted his state, then suppressed the various messy thoughts in his heart before starting to focus on improving.

Time passed unconsciously.

The world changed, and seasons shifted.

More than fifty years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Lin Yang successfully stepped into the third level of the Boundary Realm.

"It's nearly twenty years earlier than I estimated."

Lin Yang temporarily interrupted the improvement, feeling quite surprised.

Originally, he estimated it would take at least sixty or seventy years to reach the third level, but now it had only taken a little over fifty years.

However, Lin Yang soon didn't care anymore; using less Time was a good thing.

"Lingyuan Liquid..."

Lin Yang took out the Lingyuan Liquid and ingested it.

The milky white liquid emitted wisps of vapor, and there was a cool sensation upon entering his mouth.

It was like drinking an iced beverage in the hot summer.

It was extremely refreshing.

In an instant, Lin Yang felt that his perception of the Dao Rhythm became clearer.

"The effect is this strong?"

Lin Yang marveled in his heart, not daring to waste any more Time, and immediately closed his eyes to start comprehending.

...

Meanwhile, just as Lin Yang ingested the Lingyuan Liquid to charge towards the Returning Origin Realm.

In the Mirror Ruins Realm, in a residential area of a city in the Mushen Country, another country far away from Kunyu Country.

A figure was also in seclusion.

Suddenly, this figure opened his eyes, and surging power surged around his body.

"Finally broke through!!"

The figure's eyes were full of excitement.

But immediately after, this excitement turned into deep killing intent, hatred, and anger.

"Lin Yang!!"

"This Old Ancestor swears to go back and kill you!!"

Yes, that's right.

The owner of this figure was none other than—Northern Branch Rock.

At this moment, Northern Branch Rock's eyes were filled with a mix of hatred and excitement.

"Lin Yang, oh Lin Yang, it was you who forced this Old Ancestor to enter the Endless Spacetime."

"But, you probably never imagined that this Old Ancestor would be so lucky to enter a high-level spacetime directly!"

"And, I even met an elder of my lineage!"

"Now, less than two hundred years after entering the Mirror Ruins Realm, this Old Ancestor has successfully broken through to the Boundary Realm. Now, it will be easy for this Old Ancestor to kill you!"

Northern Branch Rock's eyes were filled with excitement and smugness.

Back then, he was forced to flee into the Endless Spacetime by Lin Yang, Zi Yun, and others, but he was very lucky and arrived directly in the Mirror Ruins Realm.

And he even met an elder!

That's right.

He met an elder from his own Northern Branch Rock ancestry!

And that elder was an existence at the Returning Origin Realm!

He was even a figure second only to the Country Lord in this Mushen Country!

This allowed Northern Branch Rock to suddenly rise to prominence.

In the Endless Spacetime, few people were lucky enough to meet someone from the same Universe Zone.

Let alone a descendant of the same lineage.

Therefore, that elder of Northern Branch Rock was extremely caring and protective of him.

As soon as Northern Branch Rock arrived, he went to the Royal Capital of Mushen Country, enjoying the best resources and the best cultivation environment.

Originally, he was only at the third level of the ordinary Breaking Universe Realm Old Ancestor, and it would have taken a long Time to break through to the Boundary Realm.

But now, with the good cultivation environment and the accumulation of resources, he broke through in just over a hundred years.

This made Northern Branch Rock extremely excited.

"My clan's elder is also a powerhouse in the Endless Spacetime!"

"A high-level powerhouse of the Returning Origin Realm!"

"Lin Yang, so what if your talent is monstrous?"

"Under my clan's elder, you are nothing but an ant!"

Northern Branch Rock was also extremely smug.

"It's just a pity that the road to the various Universe Zones is temporarily sealed, and this Old Ancestor cannot go back to kill you personally right now."

"However, it will be soon. When the seal ends, this Old Ancestor will return to destroy you at the first opportunity."

Northern Branch Rock had also figured out why the Wan Qian Universe Zone was disconnected from the Endless Spacetime.

On one hand, survival in the Endless Spacetime was indeed difficult. Some Old Ancestors left the Universe Zone, and if they were unlucky, they died on the spot. If they were lucky, they could only struggle to survive and had no strength to return to the Universe Zone.

On the other hand, a large-scale turmoil targeting the Universe Zones had occurred in the Endless Spacetime.

Later, the top forces and powerhouses in the Endless Spacetime stepped forward, set rules, and sealed the road to the Universe Zones.

This move was to protect the Universe Zones.

However, this kind of seal was about to be lifted.

"Lin Yang, no matter how monstrous you are, it has only been a hundred or two hundred years. Even if you have broken through to the Old Ancestor Realm now, you are still an ant!"

"This Old Ancestor is now in the Boundary Realm. In a few years, this Old Ancestor might even be able to grasp the Dao rhythm power. When I go back, you and all your relatives and friends will suffer the ultimate pain!"

Northern Branch Rock pondered in his heart, having already planned how to torture Lin Yang and others to avenge the grudge of the past once the seal was lifted.

With his elder there, he could return to the Universe Zone without paying too much of a price.

Northern Branch Rock was thinking about this.

Suddenly.

A figure appeared in front of him.

Seeing this figure, Northern Branch Rock immediately stood up and bowed respectfully: "Old Ancestor!"

His elder hadn't actually reached the point of being called Old Ancestor.

But to express his respect, Northern Branch Rock still very obediently called him Old Ancestor.

And for this obedience, this "Old Ancestor" was quite pleased and satisfied: "Not bad, you broke through so quickly. It seems you have indeed worked very hard these years."

Bei Yuan looked at Northern Branch Rock for a moment and smiled gratifyingly.

He was genuinely happy to meet a descendant.

Although the environment and resources he gave to Northern Branch Rock would have allowed any other Old Ancestor at the same level to break through in that Time.

But he still praised Northern Branch Rock.

In the Endless Spacetime, he had only met two or three people from his hometown in the Ten Thousand Universes over so many years.

And they had all died due to various accidents.

For this suddenly arrived Northern Branch Rock, Bei Yuan spared no effort to cultivate him.

Northern Branch Rock immediately said obediently: "It is all due to the cultivation of the Old Ancestor. Branch Rock does not dare to disappoint the Old Ancestor, so naturally, I am working doubly hard."

Don't look at how he was a high and mighty Old Ancestor in the Ten Thousand Universes, extremely arrogant.

But now he behaved as obediently as a child.

After coming to the Endless Spacetime, he realized that the Old Ancestor Realm, and even the Boundary Realm he had just broken through to, were nothing. Only the Returning Origin Realm had status and position!

For someone like Bei Yuan, who could be considered a powerhouse even within the Returning Origin Realm, and was also his own Old Ancestor, he naturally behaved increasingly obediently and sensibly.

Those who know the Times are outstanding.

Northern Branch Rock knew very well that everything he possessed now was brought by Bei Yuan.

Therefore, he didn't dare to have any of the temper or airs he had as an Old Ancestor in the Universe Zone.

And the more obedient and sensible he acted, the more Bei Yuan liked him:

"Very good. Many people have been Old Ancestors in the Universe Zone for too long. When they come to the Ten Thousand Universes, it is hard for them to change their nature, and they inevitably suffer losses. You know how to be flexible, and you will definitely achieve something in the future."

Northern Branch Rock smiled obediently again: "Branch Rock wishes to follow behind the Old Ancestor forever."

"Haha, you guy, you only know how to please me."

Although Bei Yuan knew Northern Branch Rock was flattering him, he was still very happy. He beckoned with his hand, and a high-level weapon appeared, which he gave to Northern Branch Rock.

"This is a spirit armament. You can use it until you reach the Returning Origin Realm without any problems. Consider it a reward for your breakthrough. You must keep it well and don't lose it. This spirit armament is worth ten billion."

Northern Branch Rock's heart trembled instantly: "Ten billion?!"

He naturally knew what ten billion meant!

If it were normal circumstances, for an Old Ancestor like him who had just entered the Mirror Ruins Realm, let alone ten billion, earning one hundred million or even ten million would require risking his life!

Ten billion could buy hundreds of lives of people like him!

But now...

A spirit armament worth ten billion was just given to him so easily!

"Old Ancestor, this, this is too precious...!" Although Northern Branch Rock wanted it very much, he still feigned a refusal.

"Accept it." Bei Yuan didn't say much.

"This... Thank you, Old Ancestor!" Northern Branch Rock feigned a bit more, then bowed deeply, showing extreme respect.

"Continue cultivating. I will also provide you with ordinary resources for the Boundary Realm. You first reach the third level, and then leave seclusion to try to grasp the Dao Rhythm." Bei Yuan said again.

"Thank you, Old Ancestor!" Northern Branch Rock bowed respectfully again, looking very excited.

Bei Yuan waved his hand.

The reason he cultivated Northern Branch Rock so vigorously was because both were of the same root and origin.

That was why he wanted Northern Branch Rock to reach the third level of the Boundary Realm and grasp the Dao Rhythm as soon as possible.

Without grasping the Dao Rhythm, one is truly at the bottom in the Endless Spacetime!

Only after grasping the Dao Rhythm could he let Northern Branch Rock help him do some things.

Some things are only truly trusted when handed to one's own people.

"Old Ancestor." After bowing, Northern Branch Rock couldn't help but ask: "How long will it take for the seal to return to the Universe Zone to be lifted?"

"Hmm? You want to go back for revenge?" Bei Yuan naturally knew the reason why Northern Branch Rock entered the Endless Spacetime long ago.

"Yes." Northern Branch Rock nodded, "If I don't kill that kid, I really feel uncomfortable, and I can't even focus on cultivation."

"Keep your cool!"

Bei Yuan frowned:

"That kid you mentioned, even if his talent is exceptional, the Old Ancestor to Boundary is a threshold, and Boundary to Returning Origin is an even bigger threshold. You don't have to worry about him improving fast and not being able to take revenge!"

"No matter how fast he improves, as long as I take a slight action, he will only be at your mercy. Are you still afraid that you won't be able to take revenge?"

Northern Branch Rock immediately bowed his head: "Yes, Branch Rock understands."

"Alright, clear your mind and continue cultivating. When the seal is lifted, I will tell you immediately. By then, in the entire Wan Qian Universe Zone, none of your enemies will be able to escape!"

Bei Yuan said faintly, and his figure disappeared directly.

Northern Branch Rock looked at the spirit armament worth ten billion in his hand, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes.

...

Time flew by, and Time passed like sand in the palm of one's hand.

In the blink of an eye, another hundred years passed.

On this day, in the high-level residential area, Lin Yang interrupted his seclusion again.

"The effect of the Lingyuan Liquid has disappeared. It's a pity, it's still a sliver away from breaking through the threshold of the Returning Origin Realm."

Lin Yang sighed.

The effect of the Lingyuan Liquid could last for a hundred years, but he failed to successfully break through to the Returning Origin Realm within these hundred years.

Even though he had mastered the Dao Rhythm early on and even mastered the Dao Method, and had taken the Lingyuan Liquid, he still felt the difficulty of breaking through to the Returning Origin Realm!

"This is simply hell-level difficulty. No wonder that even in the high-level spacetime, once one breaks through to the Returning Origin Realm, their status and position will be vastly different."

"I prepared so fully and am still a sliver away. One can imagine how difficult it is for others to break through!"

Lin Yang sighed, and couldn't help but have a headache.

Because if he wanted to charge for a breakthrough again now, he would need another portion of Lingyuan Liquid to stabilize his primordial spirit.

And the Lingyuan Liquid would cost another twenty-eight billion.

Although Lu Chongguang could give him a little discount, it would still be at least around twenty-five billion. It was very difficult for him to get so much money at once now.

"It would be great if there were some more big underground forces that I could loot."

Lin Yang muttered, then the World-in-a-Flower condensed in his hand.

The current World-in-a-Flower was still transparent, but the blooming petals had reached one petal.

In terms of power, Lin Yang estimated it could injure the Returning Origin Realm.

Although he didn't break through, his one hundred and fifty years of seclusion had also yielded great improvements.

The power of the World-in-a-Flower had improved the most significantly.

This was not his self-righteous delusion, but because he had previously felt the aura of the Inspector Hao Fang.

Hao Fang should be an average or medium existence in the Returning Origin Realm.

And now, the feeling that the World-in-a-Flower gave him was somewhat similar to Hao Fang's Returning Origin aura.

This meant that the current power of the World-in-a-Flower could cause damage to the Returning Origin Realm!

But what kind of damage specifically, he still couldn't be sure, because there was no experimental subject.

Not only that, he also mastered the low-level Dao Rhythm method of the World-in-a-Flower.

He could release the World-in-a-Flower with Dao rhythm power.

Although the power was much worse than the complete version of the Dao Method World-in-a-Flower, it had the advantage of very low consumption.

At the same Time, condensing multiple weakened versions of the World-in-a-Flower, Lin Yang made a preliminary estimation, and it should also be able to cause damage to the Returning Origin Realm.

Although he didn't break through, his combat power was already comparable to the Returning Origin Realm.

Subsequently, Lin Yang stood up.

After being in seclusion for more than one hundred and fifty years, he didn't know what was happening outside, especially with the He Family and He Linxue.

He wanted to go and see.

Meanwhile.

Outside Yun Que City, Squads were quietly approaching, stopping at the very edge of Yun Que City's defense early warning system.

A tall and thin figure stared dimly at Yun Que City:

"The new City Lord of Yun Que City has just taken office, and his control over the Formation Array in the city cannot reach a perfect level. Inspector Hao Fang has already left. This is a good Time to invade Yun Que City!"

He turned his head to look at the people in the Squads behind him, and said in a deep voice: "This invasion, kill without mercy! Loot all the property that can be taken away in Yun Que City, don't leave anything!"

"The Lord said, bloodbath Yun Que City!"

As the words fell, another person beside the tall and thin figure couldn't help but say: "Lord Jin Shi, there is a powerful character in this Yun Que City who is also taking care of the He Family. How should we handle him?"

"Hmph, warn him first. We can spare the He Family and let him not interfere. At the same Time, let him join our Jin Shi Kingdom. If he refuses, then the Lord will naturally take action to destroy him!"

The tall and thin figure, Jin Shi, snorted coldly, then waved his hand, and ordered coldly:

"Do it!"

"Bloodbath Yun Que City!"
