139: Unrivaled in the same realm, enter the ancient burial!

As Lin You's Realm became equal to his own, Cui Yi's breathing grew increasingly ragged.

He stared at the figure before him, imposing and lofty like a God King.

For a moment, he couldn't even distinguish reality from illusion... "Lord Lin..."

"Forgive my offense!"

As his voice fell, Cui Yi launched a fierce attack. He gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his arms, and threw a punch!

The might of the blow was overwhelming, covering the sky and earth.

The pressure caused the Void Realm to tremble wildly.

For an ordinary Martial Immortal Realm expert, this strike would likely be unrivaled!

But Lin You acted as if he saw nothing, allowing the whistling fist wind to approach.

His eyes held an indescribable calm.

"A decent Divine Ability, broad and powerful, with unpredictable might."

The next second,

He gently raised his hand, not even utilizing the white tiger golden light sword.

He pointed a single finger.

The fierce fist wind instantly shattered like a deflated ball.

"But... it's still not enough!"

Lin You murmured softly, speaking as if instructing a Disciple, "Again!"

Another punch.

Mixed with Cui Yi's overflowing fury.

But the result was exactly as expected. This time, Lin You didn't even bother to raise his hand.

Just by standing still, the Sword Intent surging around him tore the fist wind to shreds.

"Too slow, too weak."

"Your power... is too thin!"

"Continue!"

"If one punch isn't enough, then throw ten. If ten isn't enough, then a hundred, ten thousand, ten million!"

"I will stand right here today. If you can force me back half a step, then I, Lin You, admit inferiority!"

As his voice fell.

The entire area erupted!

"This isn't a battle between equals in the same Realm; it's a complete crushing!"

"A one-sided affair, without any suspense."

"Is this the eighteen-year-old Prodigy, the one who unified the Two Realms, an existence even the Longevity Family tacitly approves of?"

"Too terrifying!"

Lin You's words were not only domineering but also carried a subtle, almost imperceptible disdain.

Cui Yi's emotions were unconsciously stirred up.

Staring at those eyes, stagnant like dead water, and that lofty posture, he was instantly enraged.

He swung his fists like a madman, allowing the Spiritual Qi within his body to surge out.

His face was pale... he spat out fresh blood!

He even smashed his knuckles until they were a bloody mess.

Yet, he couldn't even touch a corner of Lin You's clothes!

—Clang.

Lin You gently raised his hand, and a wisp of sword light shot out.

It instantly pierced his shoulder.

His entire aura suddenly weakened.

"Cui Yi..."

"You hesitated."

"Your fist contains only anger, not hatred..."

"I gave you a new life and a lofty status, but you forgot your original intention."

"Are you worried about me?"

"Your fist can contain rage, but it cannot only contain rage."

"If it is not enough to support you until the end, then abandon it, and embrace this brand new world."

Lin You's voice echoed between heaven and earth; he spoke the truth like a teacher.

"We are in the same Realm, yet you can't even withstand half a move."

"Why?"

"In this world... dignity can only be watered with fresh blood."

"Having walked this path without a master until today, you should understand how difficult it is."

"It wasn't the Liuguang Clan that killed your Family, but this lofty world, this decadent and tedious Star Domain."

"Carry the will of your Family forward."

"If the heart is like bedrock, metal and stone can be split open!"

—Rumble.

As the words fell, Cui Yi froze on the spot.

He looked incredulously at the guy two years younger than himself standing before him.

The gap between them was like the difference between heaven and abyss!

All this time, the only thing supporting him was hatred—hatred for the Liuguang Clan!

After the Liuguang Clan was annihilated by Lin You, he imposed this will—the need to prove himself—onto Lin You.

He wanted to defeat him... to prove his own worth.

But... what if he couldn't defeat Lin You?

Or perhaps... he shouldn't have attacked him in the first place.

Then what was the meaning of his life?

To end his own life and die with his Family?

No... Cui Yi roared, clutching his head, his eyes filled with agony.

He struggled, questioning himself repeatedly.

Why was he still alive?!

This easily obtained status was charity, was mercy!

Attack Lin You?

No... he couldn't! He had avenged the Cui Family's blood feud, and besides, he was no match for the opponent!

Even in a battle of the same Realm!

Vaguely, Cui Yi seemed to hear the silent whispers of his Family.

They seemed to be saying something.

The sound was very, very faint... almost too indistinct for him to hear clearly.

Were they saying... thank you?

A hint of confusion appeared in Cui Yi's eyes. He looked up, meeting Lin You's gaze.

Simple... pure.

Yet filled with an indescribable confidence.

Lin You raised his hand, constructing a token in the Void Realm. The front was engraved with the two characters Heaven Slaying ( Zhutian), and the back was a large Cui character.

His smile was calm, and he spoke softly.

"Are you willing to be my Zhu Tian Great Commander?"

"Follow me to see this world, to see how this corrupt system collapses."

"Let's go see if the heads of those Family Disciples who falsely claim eternal life and immortality are as hard as their mouths."

"You should live for yourself, not for hatred."

In that instant,

Cui Yi felt as if he had been enlightened. Tears streamed down the face of the man who hadn't shed a single tear in twenty years.

Grasping the crimson token of the Zhu Tian Department, he knelt on one knee.

"Your subordinate Cui Yi! Greetings to Lord Lin!"

"I shall serve with utmost devotion... until death!"

In an instant, Cui Yi's Qi began to fully sublimate.

The resentment buried for three hundred years was finally resolved.

The heavy shackles, like ten thousand great mountains, began to crumble. He slowly stood up, and his cultivation soared into the sky!

In just a moment, he had already reached the True Immortal Realm!

He passed three stages consecutively!

Everyone present was stunned.

"What's going on? He can Breakthrough like that!"

"Holy crap!"

"Haven't you understood yet? This isn't Cui Yi's achievement; it's the achievement of Lord Lin You!"

"He just gave a few casual pointers, and Cui Yi broke through! My goodness, I can't even imagine how powerful this guy truly is!"

Countless gazes of envy, jealousy, and hatred were cast toward Cui Yi.

This guy... now has status, strength, and backing!

This is the lifelong dream of so many people, damn it!

Lin You nodded in satisfaction. He looked at Cui Yi, "Go down. Make a trip to the Mengbo Lin Family; someone is waiting for you there."

"Cultivate diligently. I hope that the next time we meet, you will have Broken Through beyond the Quasi-Saint Realm."

Cui Yi looked at Lin You now, his eyes full of gratitude.

He knew that the man before him had granted him a new life!

"Yes, Lord!"

Below the Heavenly Ladder, countless Geniuses went completely mad.

They desperately climbed, just to ascend to heaven in a single step, to become an existence above ten thousand others!

Lin You, however, had lost the interest to continue watching.

He instructed, "The rest of the matters are entrusted to you and Fan Rui."

"I must make a trip to the Ancient Burial Ground."

"To settle some past grievances."
