168: The ninth destined protagonist, Wang Xuanba!

"Dad! I'll help you!"

Duan Wenxian stepped forward to Duan Tianchou's side and also said angrily, "Since we want to torture him and force him to hand over the treasure, we must go to the extreme!"

As he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around.

In a few easy moves, he stripped off the pants and shirt of this foreign realm mighty expert.

His eyes stared intently at a certain object exposed to the air.

"You...!"

Duan Tianchou's eyes widened. So his son was this perverted?

Northern Wind Smile was dumbfounded.

As a civilized person, he had never witnessed such a scene. Although he didn't know what the other party intended, he already felt a faint unease in his heart.

"What do you want to do!?"

"Do what? Hmph hmph."

Duan Wenxian lightly snorted twice, a hint of effeminate cruelty appearing on his fair little face. "I'll let you know what I'm going to do right now!"

A moment later.

A series of shrill screams came from inside the cave, but were quickly buried in the drizzling rain.

...

[Collapse Value +100!]

[Narration: The father and son decided to stay in this cave for a few days. They vowed not to give up until they pried open the old man's mouth.]

Lin Sheng shook his head.

He watched for a while longer, seeing no more options pop up. Helpless, he could only close the light screen first.

"It seems this event will last for a few days."

"If I had chosen option B just now, it might have ended quickly."

"But that risk really couldn't be taken."

Regarding the future, Lin Sheng still had a little plan in his heart.

For example, after reaching the Dao One Realm, he planned to first try and subdue the Immortal Court Empress who was in his palm world. If he succeeded, that would naturally be best. If he failed, he would just pretend she didn't exist.

After that, he planned to fly outside the domain and eliminate the Star Sea Behemoths around his domain.

Star Sea Behemoths are super-giant species that roam between the Star Sea. From small meteors and cosmic dust in the starry sky to powerful cultivators traversing the starry sky and even entire realms, all are within their food range.

In the original work, after the nine Heavenly Mandated Protagonists left the East Heaven Domain and entered the Star Sea, the first thing they did was work together to kill the Star Sea Behemoths around the East Heaven Domain.

And after that...

After that was too far away, Lin Sheng didn't think that far.

He opened the system interface to take a look.

Current Collapse Value: 240!

As an Immortal Emperor at the fourth level, even if he rose two more levels, he would only be at the sixth level of Immortal Emperor, without a qualitative improvement.

Therefore, he planned to save it for now and break through to the next realm all at once when the time came.

He got up and got out of bed.

He pushed open the door and walked out, bathing in the sunlight, looking at the bright and colorful beauties in his sight, feeling extremely comfortable.

He had a very fulfilling afternoon and evening.

First, at Sheng Long'er's invitation, he played a game of Go with her.

Then he was taken by Mu Xianyan to Cijing Palace to taste eye-catching pastries until dusk.

Finally, under Su Yuyao's arrangement, he spent a luxurious night in the separate courtyard.

Time flew by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

During these three days, he traveled back and forth between Tianyun Mountain, Saintess Peak, and Chihuang Peak, focusing on improving his relationships with the various women.

Occasionally, he would also take them out of the Holy Land to go shopping.

As for the enthusiasm surrounding his breakthrough to Immortal Emperor and the merging of the three dynasties, it had also gradually faded away in these past few days.

On the fourth day, early morning.

Nangong Qing, wearing a thin golden gauze robe, knelt at the edge of the bed. After tidying Lin Sheng's clothes as he stood by the bed, she immediately lay back down with a tired look on her face.

Lin Sheng, feeling refreshed, walked out the door and was met by Bai Huaer (Demon Pool Holy Mother) who flashed before him.

"Master, I've finished investigating and returned!"

"Oh?"

The former's eyes lit up. He immediately took her hand and sat down at the stone table.

"Tell me, what's the situation."

"According to Master's instructions, I went to the extreme north to inquire about a young man named Wang Xuanba. As expected, he really exists!"

Bai Huaer, in a white dress, sat very naturally on Lin Sheng's lap. Her jade-like hands wrapped around his neck as she looked up at him.

"According to the investigation."

"That Wang Xuanba was an orphan since childhood, growing up on the peak of a snowy mountain at the extreme north. He was accompanied by wild beasts all year round, possessing innate divine strength and an extraordinary physique."

"Local herdsmen say he is the son of the mountain god, some say he is the lost descendant of an ancient supreme expert, and some say he is a born devil."

"However, I discovered that the other party is only fifteen years old, yet already possesses the cultivation of a True Immortal at the first level. Furthermore, he once brutally beat a True Immortal at the tenth level, Xue Yanluo, with his bare hands without using any spells, demonstrating extraordinary combat power."

Wang Xuanba!

Precisely the name of the ninth Heavenly Mandated Protagonist who had not yet appeared.

Lin Sheng wanted to quickly break through to the Dao One Realm, and the other Heavenly Mandated Protagonists were currently difficult to trigger events for, so he set his sights on this last Heavenly Mandated Protagonist.

He pondered.

Could he manually push him, allowing him to gain opportunities in advance and thus trigger events?

"I brought him to the outside of Wind Snow Remnant Old Village according to your instructions."

"Based on the time calculation, he should wake up soon."

Wind Snow Remnant Old Village.

This is precisely where this ninth Heavenly Mandated Protagonist obtained his core cheat.

Here, there are a large number of old powerhouses who have survived from the Primordial Era, each of them an Immortal King or Immortal Venerable.

After discovering that Wang Xuanba was the bloodline of their former old master, these old powerhouses, whose lifespans were nearing their end, collectively decided to pass on their respective unique skills to him.

Thus, Wang Xuanba spent three extremely important years of his life here.

During this period, he obtained unique spells and ultimate techniques from various powerhouses.

As soon as he left the extreme north, he stirred up the winds and clouds of the world!

He is the hexagon-shaped Heavenly Mandated Protagonist with the highest starting point, most comprehensive abilities, and strongest combat power!

His root bone, comprehension, and luck are all top-notch.

His only weakness might be that he doesn't like to use his brain and is always single-minded.

But thanks to his strength that always makes people drop their jaws and his exaggerated luck, even things that other Heavenly Mandated Protagonists weren't optimistic about, he could always succeed immediately!

"Well done."

Lin Sheng lightly pressed a kiss on Bai Huaer's moist, thin lips, causing the latter to smile slightly.

"It seems the event will be triggered soon..."

He softly muttered to himself, then asked Bai Huaer, "Speaking of which, how are you using the meteorite I gave you now?"

"Not yet."

Bai Huaer leaned forward, resting her head on his shoulder, her voice soft. "There's still some distance before breaking through to Immortal Emperor. They all suggested I wait until then to use it, and I think that makes sense too."

"That's fine too."

For others, breaking through to Immortal Emperor is not a simple matter.

On the contrary.

It is precisely because the difficulty of breaking through to Immortal Emperor is immense that over the past tens of thousands of years, there have only been the sparse three Immortal Emperors from the original Three Great Immortal Dynasties on the surface.

[Ding!]

[Heavenly Mandated Protagonist #9, Wang Xuanba, triggered a life event!]

Here it comes.

Lin Sheng curled the corner of his mouth.

If he hadn't given him a push in advance, the event for this last Heavenly Mandated Protagonist would probably have had to wait at least ten days to half a month.

Now...

While stroking Bai Huaer's snowy white long hair, he raised his eyes and looked ahead.
