102: The little beggar has changed, have you seen it?
“The first 2,500 lives, I died under those two sword lights.”
“I thought breaking the sword light would be fun, but then I found out that he also had a move, Sword Opens Heavenly Gate, which could instantly kill me too.”
“This move is very strong; its speed is a bit slower, but he uses a giant sword, so the force is very heavy. Even with a divine weapon, I couldn't block it.”
“By the 4,000th life, I understood. I borrowed 10,000 points from the System and put it all into agility. It was easy.”
“Then, that was the beginning of the nightmare.”
“Four thousand five hundred and twelve lives in, Jun Lingxiao used a move called Heavenly Sword, and I couldn't play anymore.”
“It was too strong. I had nowhere to hide, nowhere to evade. My legs even started trembling, and in the end, I could only stare blankly as that sword descended upon my head.”
“Finally, on my 7,140th life, I broke down and started begging the System to stop. It was impossible to win.”
“The System didn't agree, but it lent me another 100,000 points. After several trials and errors, I bought a substitute doll, which granted immunity from death and temporary invincibility. With this, I successfully approached Jun Lingxiao.”
“But…”
“You can even open a Domain???”
“Jun Lingxiao even realized that my Golden Finger was related to Rebirth. He was too strong, too smart; he could even guess that. I broke down and started slacking off.”
Help me!
Brother, stop killing, I was wrong.
Stop killing, I'll never dare again!
Damn it! I'll curse your ancestors!
Do you think you can kill me!?
Come! Kill me!!
Again!!
Ling Tian thought about everything that had happened before and felt like a piece of his memory was missing.
The first 7,000 lives were relatively clear, but after that, he no longer knew what he was doing. It seemed to be nothing but painful memories.
Originally, the System had stopped lending him points around the 8,500th life and had given up on the mission, even advising him to give up.
But at that time, Ling Tian was already like a madman, his mind unclear, his spirit collapsing. He didn't know what happened afterward until the System's voice sounded in his ear, and he woke up as if from a dream.
Now, thinking about it, he only felt lingering fear.
But... “I went through so many Reincarnations, and it still had some effect. As long as I cling to this thigh, wealth and glory are within reach!”
Ling Tian thought excitedly. He had always liked to take risks, and this time was no exception.
“Young Master! You haven't packed yet! What? Not going to the Secret Realm?”
“Didn't you finally get this token after so much effort?”
The maid came in, tilting her head as she looked at him. One should know that even the large Ling Family only had this one token.
“Go! Why wouldn't I go?”
Ling Tian quickly called the little maid over to help him pack, while thinking about what excuse he should use to acknowledge Jun Lingxiao as his elder brother.
“He's so wary... Should I be more subtle?”
“No, no, if I become his enemy again, I won't be able to revive this time. I need to find a way…”
Ling Tian here began to scheme, but other Families were not idle either.
Ten Directions Immortal Court, Qin Family.
The Qin Family also began its journey to the Secret Realm, and at this moment, inside a room, two men were conversing.
“Cousin, didn't you say you were quite interested in that Jun Lingxiao? Then why aren't you going to the Secret Realm this time?”
Qin Chengan, one of the Qin Family Twelve Kings, was at this moment anxiously trying to persuade his cousin, Qin Mùdào, to participate in the Secret Realm with him.
Although Qin Chengan was one of the Qin Family Twelve Kings, he knew very well that his cousin, the Qin Family New King, was a top-tier expert. He couldn't even last a few moves in front of him.
If Qin Mùdào went, then this Secret Realm would surely be a guaranteed success!
However, Qin Mùdào merely wiped the blade in his arms and then glanced at him indifferently.
“Qin Chengan, you have selfish motives.”
At these words, Qin Chengan was stunned for a moment, then relaxed.
“Brother, what's wrong with having selfish motives! Yes! I do have some dealings with Fang Sheng, and going to the Secret Realm this time is specifically for Jun Lingxiao.”
“But Brother, our Qin Family is too low-key. We are clearly one of the Three Heavens, so why does it seem like the Ten Directions Immortal Court is named after the Jun Family? In my opinion, that Jun Lingxiao is just one of many Prodigies; he hasn't reached the point where he can overturn the heavens.” Qin Chengan said confidently.
It wasn't that he was arrogant and underestimated Jun Lingxiao; on the contrary, he valued him quite a bit.
After all, he knew Fang Sheng's strength. The two often sparred, and Jun Lingxiao's ability to defeat Fang Sheng was indeed impressive.
But at the same time, he didn't believe Jun Lingxiao was invincible.
In a flourishing era, with changes in the Law, Prodigies emerged frequently.
Under such a prosperous age, who dared to claim invincibility?
Ordinary Prodigy, peerless Prodigy, monstrous Prodigy, Supreme Prodigy—there were countless divisions among Prodigies. No matter how powerful Jun Lingxiao was, there were still people above him, preventing him from soaring.
Moreover, as one of the Ten Chiefs and Three Heavens, with their reputation at stake, there was no way Jun Lingxiao would actually kill him.
Qin Chengan, as one of the Qin Family Twelve Kings, was among the top tier of the Qin Family. Harming him would be equivalent to starting a war with the Qin Family. Unless Jun Lingxiao was a fool, he wouldn't cause such a thing.
And the same applied to him; killing Jun Lingxiao was impossible, but suppressing him for a bit was feasible.
This time, he was going specifically to challenge Jun Lingxiao to a match, which could also be considered revenge for Fang Sheng!
“Qin Chengan, don't blame me for not reminding you. Although you also have a Sacred Body, there are still differences between Sacred Bodies.”
“I will go find Jun Lingxiao, but not now.”
With that, Qin Mùdào got up and left.
He had a calm temperament, pursuing the ultimate extreme his entire life.
In his view, rankings, the Ten Chiefs, and the Three Heavens were all secondary. Only Cultivating, only becoming powerful, was everything.
A spar was inevitable, but it would only be meaningful when both he and Jun Lingxiao were ready for a fair duel.
Qin Chengan watched his cousin leave. Although he was unwilling, he eventually gave up. After all, his cousin was truly strong.
“Depart!”
It didn't matter that he didn't get his cousin to come; Qin Chengan was determined to succeed on this trip!
At the same time, it wasn't just the Jun Family and Qin Family setting off; even the Chu Family and Ye Family had sent people to the Secret Realm.
The Great Emperors Treasury was already extraordinary, and after four years of dormancy, even the Ten Chiefs wanted to send people in to see what had happened inside.
Of course, the Qiu Family was also among them.
Inside the Qiu Family at this moment.
Qiu Jinyao, veiled in white gauze, sat on a chair, listening to everyone's reports, but her thoughts drifted far away.
“The Great Emperors Treasury... will he go too?” She murmured softly, lowering her head, her brows rarely curving, revealing tenderness.
Looking up, the younger generation of Disciples in the Qiu Family all knelt before her, none daring to disobey.
After their separation that day, the little beggar from back then had changed completely.
Jun Lingxiao, do you see it?
