90: Chapter 90 The Sacred Realm's Plans

pure white flipped twice on your wrist before you retracted it.

Watching you retract your sword, Venerable Li Kun finally relaxed his tense shoulders and let out a long breath.

He could feel that the move you just executed was not something an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could unleash. At least, when he was in the Nascent Soul Realm, even at the Peak, he could not have done it, let alone the fact that Venerable Li Kun could sense you were only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

"Monster, an absolute monster!" Venerable Li Kun thought to himself.

If you only had the cultivation of the Golden Core Realm, Venerable Li Kun might have risked a fight to see if he could occupy this Inner World, but since you were at the Nascent Soul Realm, he abandoned that idea.

Venerable Li Kun now made up his mind to befriend you. He felt that a Prodigy like you would have boundless prospects if you reached the Tianheng Continent, and he also believed that when you became a powerful figure, you would certainly not treat him poorly.

Moreover, with his pseudo-Soul Transformation cultivation, he couldn't handle this Inner World anyway. The safest method was to report this news to Wanbao Pavilion and receive a reward from them.

"Fellow Daoist, this old man is named Venerable Li Kun, with a cultivation at the Soul Transformation Early Stage, and I come from the Tianheng Continent." Venerable Li Kun looked at you and spoke softly.

Tianheng Continent? You silently repeated the name in your heart. It seemed this was the world where the Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon resided.

"You can communicate?" You looked at him and said.

Venerable Li Kun smiled: "I know Fellow Daoist has many doubts right now, but please rest assured, Fellow Daoist, I can answer all of your questions!"

Inside the highest command room of the Saint Realm.

Marshal Ye had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and a pile of ash nearly a full tray high had already accumulated in front of him.

Ever since you brought Venerable Li Kun into the Saint Realm command center, the entire command room had been in an uproar.

You sat in a chair with a lollipop in your mouth, as if none of this had anything to do with you.

At this moment, Venerable Li Kun was waiting in the lounge outside.

You watched the noisy crowd before you and shifted the lollipop stick in your mouth to the right.

The people arguing were mainly divided into two factions. One faction believed that this Venerable Li Kun was an Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon, and judging by his description, he was the supreme boss of the so-called Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon, so they wanted to kill him immediately. Setting aside whether they could defeat the opponent, this group's attitude was very resolute.

The other faction believed that Venerable Li Kun did not seem to have any malice. Although they also knew that Venerable Li Kun was wary of your strength, regardless, he currently held no ill intent. This group believed they could learn more about the Tianheng Continent from Venerable Li Kun.

"Befriend him?" A Martial Saint slapped the table: "Are you joking? How many of our brothers have died over these past few hundred years because of this guy."

"I told you to calm down!" An elderly Martial Saint scolded.

"Calm down? Old man Liu, your son and grandson both died at the hands of the Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon. It's not just you; how many of our relatives present here have died in this war against the Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon! They are heroes! They are martyrs! We promised them, and I promised my father that I would kill all Extra-territorial Heavenly Demon. Now that this opportunity is right before our eyes, you tell me to calm down!"

Marshal Ye watched him and extinguished the cigarette in his hand: "Then go ahead and kill him, no one is stopping you!" Marshal Ye's voice was low, but as soon as he spoke, the entire command room fell silent.

That Martial Saint did not speak for a moment, but instead looked at you. They all knew that Venerable Li Kun was only willing to befriend them because he was wary of you.

Marshal Ye looked at him: "Didn't you tell others every day not to let emotions affect your judgment? Sometimes you even said this in my ear. Why is it that when it comes to this matter, you demand it of others, but can't do it yourself! You're not young anymore, yet you act like a child. Aren't you ashamed!"

Hearing this, the Martial Saint's face turned slightly red.

"Venerable Li Kun has already told us that the world we are currently in is called the Inner World, while the outside world is called the Tianheng Continent. The cultivation levels there are divided into Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, Void Return, Body Integration, Undergoing Tribulation, and Mahayana, a total of nine Realms. A Martial Saint only corresponds to Foundation Establishment, and a Martial God is merely a Golden Core!" Marshal Ye said, lighting another cigarette: "Regardless of how you look at it, the gap between us and the Tianheng Continent is enormous!"

He sighed: "According to what Venerable Li Kun said, our best way out now is to report this world to a super power over there called Wanbao Pavilion, and then have this Inner World taken over by that super power."

After a pause, Marshal Ye continued: "I agree with this suggestion, what do you think!"

When Marshal Ye said this, he looked at you. Regardless, the gap in strength between the Tianheng Continent and here was too great; they had absolutely no way to handle it.

You took the candy out of your mouth and looked at Marshal Ye: "I think it's fine too!"

Marshal Ye nodded: "Then it is decided."

Marshal Ye did not consult the other Martial Saints present; he simply asked for your opinion and then made the final decision.

The Martial Saint who had been clamoring to kill Venerable Li Kun merely muttered: "I also obey the order!"

After the others left, only you and Marshal Ye remained in the command room.

You looked at Marshal Ye. In fact, the look in his eyes just now seemed to suggest he had something he wanted to tell you.

"Senior Lin." Marshal Ye actually didn't quite know how to address you now. Calling you 'Fellow Daoist' definitely wouldn't work, and 'Fellow Daoist' wasn't quite right either. After thinking about it, he could only call you Senior Lin.

In the martial arts world, having higher cultivation makes one a Senior, so there was no issue with that.

Upon hearing Marshal Ye call you that, you hurriedly waved your hand: "Just call me Lin Heng, the same way you call Mu Xue."

Marshal Ye did not decline: "Alright, Lin Heng. Actually, I have been wondering in my heart, could the Inner World that Venerable Li Kun speaks of simply be the Saint Realm, and not include the outside?"

Hearing this, the lollipop stick in your mouth suddenly stopped.
