In this battle, Lin Xin didn’t use all his strength, but he did reveal most of his trump cards.
The power he displayed was beyond the level that an Earth Immortal should possess. Besides killing Fang Yu, this battle also truly engraved his imnse power into the minds of these people.
All the cultivators and arhats, upon eting his gaze, involuntarily lowered their heads, not daring to et his eyes.
It wasn’t out of cowardice, but because Lin Xin’s strength had swelled to twenty tis his original power after surviving the Sword of Rage twice!
Previously, he had accumulated vast power with the Sword of Joy, and then doubled it by twenty tis!
Such power was unimaginable even for an ordinary Heavenly Venerable.
Now, anyone who saw Lin Xin’s eyes could clearly feel a terrifying burning sensation.
It was as if their eyes would spontaneously combust if they looked too long.
It could be said that once these people left the Shadow Realm, the na of Lin Xin, the Divine Monarch of Sherie, would truly beco famous throughout the Great Void Myriad Realms, not because of his background, but because of his own strength!
"Let’s go, let’s search Shadow City and check the loot!"
He waved his hand.
He also needed to find the antidote for Sister Yaoyang.
The team naturally ford around him as the center.
Many had already noticed his body’s abnormality at this ti.
Standing seven ters tall, with four arms, his body glowed with what seed to be the Primordial Spirit Holy Light, all these signs indicated that Lin Xin was definitely one of the top Heavenly Venerable.
Heading towards the direction of Shadow City.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!
A group of cultivators floated in the air, followed by countless soldiers resembling clouds, who launched into the air towards the main part of Shadow City.
The entire Shadow City was already in a semi-paralyzed state. Inside the giant black quadrangular city, faint wisps of black fog and black light occasionally shot out; these were the Shadow City cultivators trying to escape.
But they were quickly caught up by the soldiers who swiftly executed them. The countless soldiers set up a grand formation, completely covering Shadow City, making it impenetrable.
Lin Xin and his group slowly flew above Shadow City and descended from the sky.
Shadow City was divided into five large districts, each comprising thirteen smaller sectors, with each sector having at least hundreds of black stone buildings of different structures.
Together, the entire city could be described as a massive, exquisite structure.
"I’ll go to Yunxiang Hall first to look for the antidote." Lin Xin instructed Guanyin and others before flying straight to Yunxiang Hall within the city.
With a few flashes, he appeared in front of a gigantic black building shaped like bull horns.
Inside the building, there were so cold-faced ladies dressed in purple skirts, staring indifferently at the white-clad soldiers surrounding them.
The ladies gathered together without any resistance, just letting the soldiers completely surround them.
Lin Xin landed, his towering height of over seven ters imdiately drew gasps of amazent. So people even instinctively covered their eyes, feeling a sharp pain.
Hiss....
Lin Xin quickly shrank his true form, forcibly contracting his body to just over a person’s height.
Wearing a white Taoist Robe from Green Lake Mountain, condensed from Purification Light.
This prevented people from being unable to look directly at his body. His true form was too powerful now, causing potential life-threatening harm to anyone with lesser cultivation if they looked at him directly.
The commander of the soldiers, a tall man clad in white armor, hurriedly ca forward to salute.
"Third Legion Commander Su Han greets the Divine Monarch!"
"Also from Green Lake Mountain?"
Lin Xin noticed the insignia of Green Lake Mountain on him.
"Yes, I am a mber of the Watchtower." Su Han respectfully answered.
"Have you checked inside?"
"Not yet, Commander Yao ordered us to surround but not attack." Su Han responded.
"Then let’s go in." Lin Xin took a step forward, his figure suddenly appearing at the gate of Yunxiang Hall.
Whoosh!
The female cultivators gathered together were startled and stepped back.
"Who is the person in charge here?"
Lin Xin’s gaze fell on the won.
"I am!"
A woman standing at the forefront, with the most resolute and fearless eyes, loudly responded.
"We are rely an organization dedicated to studying dicine and stones. Divine Monarch, please don’t make things difficult for us weak won. The elixirs in Yunxiang Hall, each one of us here can refine. Every mber here is a top-tier Pill Master."
"Pill Master? The Pill Masters of Huiyang City are the top-tier ones!"
A sudden flash revealed Nine-Headed Bird Huiyang not far behind Lin Xin, still with silver hair down to her waist and a figure so striking it caught the eye.
But she had a disdainful attitude towards the people of Yunxiang Hall.
"Huiyang!?"
The Yunxiang Hall woman’s eyes turned cold.
"You sure know how to bend with the tis, surrendering to anyone you et."
"Hall Master of Yunxiang, knowing how to adapt is being wise." Huiyang smirked, not catching the deeper aning.
Lin Xin was speechless.
The Yunxiang Hall Master hinted that Huiyang surrendered too easily and that soone could betray again and again, suggesting Lin Xin should be wary.
But clearly, Huiyang didn’t understand the subtleties.
"Alright, I’m here for the antidote to the Fragrant Residence Soul Extinguishing Pill."
Lin Xin couldn’t be bothered with their conflict, directly stating his intent.
"We can give you the antidote, but you must agree to our three conditions!"
The Yunxiang Hall Master fearlessly looked straight at Lin Xin.
"Hmm?"
Lin Xin stared at her in surprise.
Daring to set conditions with him? Interesting.
A hint of a dangerous aura slowly spread out.
"If you don’t agree, the antidote has no current form and activation thod. I am the only one who knows how to refine it. Even if you kill , I won’t make a second batch for you." The Yunxiang Hall Master coldly said.
The atmosphere suddenly turned tense.
Lin Xin looked at the Yunxiang Hall Master with interest, while Huiyang stood by, gloating.
The other won from Yunxiang Hall also remained resolute, although fearful, they did not retreat, still gathering around their Hall Master.
After a long silence.
Suddenly, Lin Xin smiled faintly.
"Let’s hear them."
The tension instantly eased.
The Yunxiang Hall Master also subtly relaxed, letting out a breath of relief.
"The first condition, in this upheaval, none of our Yunxiang Hall mbers should be hard. We’ve always been independent in Shadow City, only providing elixirs, and not involved in anything else.
We are rely Pill Masters, unrelated to warfare."
"This can be done." Lin Xin smiled.
"And next?"
The Yunxiang Hall Master slightly relaxed.
"The second condition, Yunxiang Hall, as the supre Holy Land of the Alchemy Realm in the entire Shadow Realm, holds imnsely important roles and influence. We hope that the Divine Monarch will not interfere with our inner structures and mber acquisition systems for so ti afterwards. Let us remain an independent entity."
Lin Xin thought for a while.
"This can be allowed if you prove your value."
The Yunxiang Hall Master seriously nodded.
"The third condition."
She looked around at the others, paused.
"We hope the Divine Monarch will marry one of our Yunxiang Hall mbers."
Snap!!!
Instantly, sothing hit her right cheek, with a crisp and piercing sound. The Hall Master of Yunxiang Hall was sent flying sideways, crashing into the pillar at the edge of the hall, then rolling to the ground.
"I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you just said."
Lin Xin’s face remained calm. He didn’t even move, just a flicker of his divine will, using the force field around him to deliver the slap.
Facing the Hall Master with rely Fifth Rank cultivation, he didn’t need to lift a finger; a re pressure of his divine will was enough to crush her to a pulp.
"Hall Master!!"
"Are you alright, Hall Master!?" A group of female Pill Masters rushed forward to support her, glaring at Lin Xin with hate-filled eyes.
"I’m fine... I... Ugh!"
Before the Hall Master could finish her sentence, she spat out a mouthful of blood as she turned away.
Lin Xin’s power was too overwhelming. Even his light touch with divine will was beyond what she could bear.
"Alright, now you may restate your third condition...."
Lin Xin said indifferently.
Seeing her old rival in such a miserable state, even Huiyang had a hint of pity in her eyes.
"May I ask, Divine Monarch," the Yunxiang Hall Master struggled to stand, "why did you accept Huiyang as your subordinate?"
"Because of the Realm Artifact."
Lin Xin directly transmitted the answer, succinctly.
"Then, if I tell the Divine Monarch I could increase Nine-Headed Bird Huiyang’s success rate in refining Realm Artifacts by twenty percent?"
The Yunxiang Hall Master seriously transmitted.
"And the terms?"
Lin Xin was intrigued, asking indifferently.
"Given that the Divine Monarch has soone in mind, the third condition can be reserved for the future. Is that acceptable?"
Seeing Lin Xin was prone to sudden violence, the Yunxiang Hall Master realized it was best to concede while ahead.
"Agreed."
Lin Xin accepted.
"However, since you have three conditions, I’ll also give a reminder."
"Please, Divine Monarch."
The Yunxiang Hall Master responded quickly.
"If you choose to submit to and be under my protection, but I find any of you deceiving, betraying, or causing issues with elixirs," Lin Xin smiled, "then each of you must bear a hundred healthy children within a hundred years for my Underworld children in my Land for God Worship!"
"You!!"
The Yunxiang Hall Master’s cheeks flushed with rage, a fire of fury burning from her heart. She stood, glaring at Lin Xin.
To give birth to a hundred children for the Underworld within a century, wasn’t that practically making them prostitutes!? Even for cultivators, constant childbirth over a hundred years would severely damage their essence. If they truly gave birth to that many, their cultivation and lifespan would be greatly diminished. Essentially, they’d be ruined!
"Agree, and we can work together. Disagree, and you can die."
Lin Xin said nonchalantly.
Even if these Pill Masters were killed, he could extend Lin Yaoyang’s poison with Purification Light, find records in Yunxiang Hall, and work with top-tier Pill Masters to find a solution.
He was not in a hurry. With Purification Light, Lin Yaoyang could be kept safe.
And in her coma state, it wasn’t bad; during a catastrophe, not even Heavenly Venerables could guarantee safety. She’d be better off not running around.
