165: Ancient Temple of the God King

"Lin Yang Saint!"

Some people recognized Lin Yang and exclaimed in surprise.

This name had not been mentioned for a long time.

Because Lin Yang had been missing for too long.

Two or three years were enough for him to completely fade from people's sight.

The Saint of the Holy Emperor Sect!

Is it really him!?

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, their eyes narrowing slightly.

He had been missing for nearly three years, completely without any news.

Unexpectedly, just when everyone was about to forget him, he suddenly reappeared!

"Haha, who said there's no one in our Lower Realm? Lin Yang Saint has returned, and even the Upper Realm's born Supreme Ji Bai was defeated by him. I believe he can contend with your proud four Flawless-Grade Prodigies!"

Some Prodigies from the Lower Realm were incredibly excited. Previously, they had been mocked by the Upper Realm's Geniuses for not being qualified to enter the ancient palace to seek treasures, and they were powerless to refute.

Because none of them could contend with the top Prodigies from the Upper Realm.

Without strength, they had no confidence.

But now, the former number one among the younger generation in the Lower Realm had appeared, giving everyone the confidence to fight back.

"Lin Yang, is it really you?"

Among the crowd, a young man stepped out.

"Xue Changming, long time no see."

Lin Yang looked sideways and found that the person who spoke was not unfamiliar; it was Xue Changming, who had joined the Holy Emperor Sect with him in the past.

Xue Changming was also one of the outstanding Geniuses in the Lower Realm.

After a few years, his strength had also improved significantly, and the Heaven-Grade Spiritual Vein in his body had successfully evolved into a Saint-Grade Spiritual Vein!

Among all the Prodigies from the Lower Realm, he was truly a rarity!

However, even so, when facing the outstanding Prodigies from the Upper Realm, he still lacked a lot of experience.

Now, he could only blend in with the crowd like everyone else, watching the Prodigies from the Upper Realm flaunt their power in front of them, yet being powerless.

"We, in the Lower Realm, also have people!"

Some people wept with joy, unable to help but want to let out a long cry, because they had been suppressed for too long.

During this past period, they had suffered too much injustice and humiliation.

Just like this time.

It was clearly an Opportunity and treasure ground of the Lower Realm, but when the ancient palace was about to open, the Geniuses of the Lower Realm were forbidden from going.

What kind of irony and humiliation was this?

It was simply infuriating.

But precisely, none of the Prodigies of the Lower Realm could stand out and lead the resistance.

While filling people with indignation, it also made them feel a sense of helplessness.

Because they had organized resistance before, but the result was shocking.

Even without the four Flawless-Grade Prodigies making a move, the young Geniuses in the Lower Realm were thoroughly crushed by the people from the Upper Realm.

After several consecutive times, the spirit of the young Geniuses in the Lower Realm had been completely shattered.

This led to their current cowardly performance of daring to be angry but not daring to speak.

"Is he the number one among your Lower Realm's younger generation?"

At this moment, many Prodigies from the Upper Realm were also observing Lin Yang.

They had also heard of Lin Yang.

Only because.

Three years ago, Lin Yang had a fierce conflict with the Upper Realm's Ji Imperial Clan.

Even, in the end, the Old Ancestor of the Imperial Clan, Emperor Anlan, returned defeated.

However, after the news spread, people realized that it was not Lin Yang's own combat power, but rather with the help of a mysterious drop of blood that he was able to achieve such a glorious record.

Some speculated that it was a drop of Immortal Dao Divine Blood, possessing unfathomable power.

But there was only one such drop, and it was impossible for it to appear again!

After careful consideration.

Many people believed that without that drop of blood, Lin Yang was just an ordinary Prodigy from the Lower Realm, not to be feared at all.

This was determined by the general environment.

The Cultivation environment in the Upper Realm far surpassed that of the Lower Realm.

Flowers cultivated in fertile land were always stronger than wild grass growing in barren land.

For a time, Lin Yang was surrounded by many Geniuses from the Lower Realm, the fervor in their eyes making him feel a little overwhelmed.

Among them were even Geniuses from forces that had previously had friction with the Holy Emperor Sect.

This also made Lin Yang sigh in his heart.

It seemed that during the two or three years he had been out of sight, the Geniuses of the Lower Realm had indeed been too severely suppressed by the Prodigies of the Upper Realm, suffering too many injustices.

Otherwise, they wouldn't behave like this.

They longed for someone to stand up for them, just once.

"What's in there?"

Compared to Lin Yang himself, many people in the distance were more concerned about what treasure was in the Chaos treasure chest in Lin Yang's hand.

Auspicious glow gushed forth, Chaos entwined. The Chaos treasure chest had a very ancient style, like something from prehistoric times, overflowing with wisps of white mist, like Immortal Qi, very mysterious.

This made many people envious, as it was clearly a rare treasure chest!

It most likely contained something extraordinary.

Moreover, this item had rushed out of the ancient palace by itself, perhaps the treasure inside the chest had already gained sentience, making everyone present feel a burning desire, wishing they could just rush up and snatch it away.

Even Dongfang Xiang, Lan Qiaomeng, Zhou Aofeng, and Shen Tanlang, the four Flawless-Grade Prodigies, stopped their fight and cast their gazes over.

Facing everyone's gazes, Lin Yang smiled faintly and weighed the Chaos treasure chest, exerting a little force with his palm, also wanting to open it and explore its contents.

"Wait!"

Just then, a deep shout came from afar.

A burly man in a black robe stepped out.

"Something wrong?"

Lin Yang glanced sideways at the other party, his eyes a little nonchalant, his hand movements not stopping as he tried to open the Chaos treasure chest.

However, what surprised him slightly was that this Chaos treasure chest was astonishingly sturdy; with his current strength, he was unable to force it open.

"Fellow Daoist, the Chaos treasure chest comes from the God King Ancient Palace. It is an ownerless item and should not belong to you."

The black-robed man had an extraordinary demeanor, with a flame Saint mark on his forehead, and his long hair glowed like waves of fire, giving off a very strong sense of oppression.

Clearly, he knew who Lin Yang was, but he still dared to step forward and speak, his neither humble nor arrogant attitude clearly showing that he was not afraid of Lin Yang's reputation as the number one among the younger generation in the Lower Realm.

Many people from the Lower Realm's expressions changed slightly.

They knew that this person coming out to speak at this time definitely had ill intentions.

This was a public provocation to Lin Yang, wanting to gauge whether their strongest young person in the Lower Realm was worthy of his reputation.

Behind this, perhaps someone was instigating it!

"An ownerless item, once it falls into my hands, then it has an owner."

Lin Yang clearly thought of this point, and his gaze, full of authority, swept coldly over the other party.

At the same time, he also learned the origin of that ancient palace from the other party's words.

God King Ancient Palace!

Could it be that an ancient God King was buried inside?

"What a terrifying aura!"

On the other side, the black-robed youth, swept by Lin Yang's gaze, immediately felt a chilling sense of dread, as if falling into an ice cellar. His heart seemed to skip a beat, and his inner being trembled.

This number one person of the Lower Realm actually possessed such power!?

Just a glance, and it could make my heart feel fear?!

The black-robed youth's eyes flickered slightly.

However, he did not retreat, but instead took several large steps forward.

"Fellow Daoist, your words are mistaken!"

"Since it is an ownerless item, it should be handed over, and its ownership can only be discussed after everyone has unanimously deliberated."

Upon hearing the black-robed youth's words, many Prodigies from the Upper Realm remained silent, only their eyes flickering with a playful light, watching the show from not far away.

The Geniuses from the Lower Realm, upon hearing this, all showed angry expressions, extremely upset.

"Hmph!"

Xue Changming snorted coldly and stepped out, speaking up for fairness: "You are Wei Dingfeng of the Upper Realm's Blazing Flame Saint Clan, right? I know you. Your Flame Divine Ability is formidable, and you have the title of one of the Ten Prodigies below Flawless-Grade."

"But to jump out like this and stir up trouble is a bit presumptuous. Why should you stop us from the Lower Realm from obtaining treasures?"

"Fellow Daoist, you speak too seriously. I am merely discussing the matter at hand, all for the sake of fairness."

Wei Dingfeng smiled faintly in response to Xue Changming's accusation.

Afterward, he looked at the others present and said, "Fellow Daoists, am I not right? An ownerless item should be decided by everyone through common deliberation. There's nothing wrong with that, is there?"

The people from the Lower Realm were all indignant upon hearing this.

This person was truly full of malice.

He claimed it was for fairness and for everyone to deliberate, but how would they deliberate?

In the end, wouldn't it still be about who had the stronger fist?

And when it came to martial power, their Lower Realm would definitely be the weaker party.

By then, this Chaos treasure chest would certainly have nothing to do with them.

"Deliberate your mother's head! The treasure we people from the Lower Realm snatched, of course, belongs to our Lower Realm!"

Someone with a fiery temper, immediately unable to contain his anger, burst out with a curse.

"That's right! You Upper Realm bandits, who wants to deliberate ownership with you!"

Many people echoed, releasing all the resentment they had accumulated over these days.

"Fellow Daoists, I am advising you kindly, yet you are being so unreasonable, making things very difficult for me..."

Facing everyone's accusations and curses, Wei Dingfeng's eyes slowly darkened, and his words became chilling.

"Difficult?"

Seeing this, Lin Yang looked at Wei Dingfeng with contempt.

"Then don't do it!"
