A technologically powerful nation: The national treasure is actually myself.

"It's Lin Yang, he's back!"

People stared in shock at Lin Yang, who returned covered in blood.

He fought against sixteen opponents, killed eight of them, and returned to the ancient war city unharmed!
It's amazing.

"What Lin Yang? He should be called King Lin Yang now!"

"Ah, right, it's Prince Linyang."

"..."

People whispered, filled with awe.

After all, Lin Yang had indeed killed so many powerful foreign warriors who were at the king level.

Ignoring the intense gazes and whispers of those around him, Lin Yang quickly found an empty place to stay.

His counterattack, killing eight people, was far from as easy as it appeared to outsiders.

He is now seriously injured and urgently needs medical treatment.

"Fortunately, I received guidance from the senior Silver Armor Hero Warrior again before, otherwise I wouldn't have had such a good time this time."

Lin Yang sat down cross-legged to heal his injuries, feeling somewhat relieved.

I'm glad I went back to the cosmic region before and received new instruction.

Otherwise, facing the siege of sixteen foreign kings, it would have been impossible to kill so many people.

"The spear technique of the Silver Armor Hero Warrior is imbued with Daoist principles; it's incredibly powerful."

Lin Yang sighed and used his life force to heal himself.

It took a full half month for the injuries to be fully healed.

Afterwards, Lin Yang went to the Star Prophecy Tower to pay off his debts and also purchased some resources.

On his way back to his residence from the Star Prophecy Tower, a startling piece of news suddenly broke.

"King Bao Ning has successfully reached the Dao!"

This news made Lin Yang pause in his tracks.

King Bao Ning has actually reached the Dao realm?!
"My God, that's so fast!"

"It feels like King Bao Ning has become a completely different person since his battle with King Tianlu. His breakthrough speed is simply frightening."

People were also very surprised.

After all, I witnessed firsthand the birth of a being who transcends the Dao.

“On the road…” Lin Yang murmured, looking in the direction where the former residence of King Bao Ning was located.

Now, the person is long gone.

After reaching the Dao, they often leave the space-time zone, but Lin Yang doesn't know exactly where they go.

When Bao Ningwang reached the Dao, everyone was deeply moved.

Tianluwang felt it the most deeply.

He exposed himself in the tomb and fought against Bao Ningwang, but unexpectedly, he made Bao Ningwang a hero instead.

"Perhaps, I also need to fight!"

With a thought, King Tianlu looked in the direction of Lin Yang, then flashed and appeared in front of Lin Yang, saying directly, "King Lin Yang, are you interested in fighting me?"

He wanted to invite Lin Yang to join the fight.

Currently, within the entire ancient battlefield domain, only Lin Yang can exert significant pressure on him.

Lin Yang was somewhat surprised: "King Tianlu, do you want to fight me?"

“Yes!” King Tianlu nodded.

Lin Yang immediately understood the guy's intention.

Perhaps he wants to recreate his battle with Bao Ningwang to evoke a personal response.

The people around were all astonished upon seeing this.

The King of Tianlu actually invited Lin Yang to a battle?
Soon, everyone understood Tianluo King's intention and looked at Lin Yang.

only……

"Sorry, I'm not interested."

Lin Yang had no interest in fighting Tianluo King and refused outright.

He knows his own path very well.

Fighting was of little help to him at this point; it was simply a waste of time.

King Tianlu frowned immediately: "You're unwilling?"

The people around were somewhat surprised, and even a little disappointed.

Everyone wanted to see a battle between strong individuals of this caliber. Lin Yang nodded calmly and then prepared to leave.

However, Tianluo King suddenly transmitted his voice and said, "If you fight me, I will tell you about Bao Ning King's insights after breaking through to the Dao and the direction he guided me in."

"Hmm?" Lin Yang paused abruptly, looked at Tianluo King, and replied in kind, "You mean Bao Ning King gave you some pointers after his breakthrough?"

“That’s right.” King Tianlu nodded. “That battle back then was very beneficial to him. So after his breakthrough, he took the initiative to contact me and tell me some directions. If you are willing to fight me, I can tell you the truth.”

Lin Yang immediately fell into deep thought.

The guidance that Bao Ningwang received after his breakthrough was equivalent to the guidance of someone who had attained enlightenment.

This benefit... is considerable.

Seeing that Lin Yang was still hesitant, King Tianlu asked again, "What reason do you have to refuse? Is it because I stopped you from seizing the Dao Jade back then?"

Having said that, he quickly repeated himself before Lin Yang could speak:

"In the battle for the Dao Jade, before the curtain falls, everyone is their own opponent. It is the strong who prevail. Although I feel a little regretful that you have taken the Dao Jade, I have no intention of being your enemy."

"After all, we are both cultivators. If you are still not satisfied with my conditions, you can ask for more. I will definitely meet your requirements if I can."

"..." Lin Yang looked at King Tianluo and gently shook his head:

“King Tianluo, you’re overthinking it. I’m not that petty. After the Dao Jade Competition ended, I had no intention of making enemies of anyone who attacked me back then. Let’s keep things separate.”

"I just want to say that if you fight me, you'll probably find it difficult to replicate the breakthrough path of King Bao Ning back then, and you may not be able to gain any inspiration from fighting me."

Upon hearing this, King Tianlu smiled and said, "Of course I know that, but how can I be satisfied without trying?"

"Since that's the case, then I agree to fight you. However, don't have too many expectations." Upon hearing this, Lin Yang no longer refused.

The price paid by King Tianluo was more than enough.

"I understand, thank you!" King Tianlu was immediately delighted. "Then when can we begin?"

“Anytime is fine,” Lin Yang replied.

"Then, why not seize the day? Let's do it now!" King Tianlu was full of fighting spirit.

"Okay." Lin Yang nodded slightly.

"Alright, let's go to the training ground!"

King Tianlu was clearly well-prepared and seemed somewhat impatient.

Lin Yang then headed towards the training ground.

The training ground is a special area within the ancient war city, which can be used for duels.

The crowd around them became excited when they saw that Lin Yang had agreed to fight Tianluo King again.

Seeing the battles of top-tier fighters is also very beneficial to them.

However, when they saw the two heading to the training ground, everyone was somewhat disappointed.

Because of the duel between Lin Yang and Tianluo Wang, they chose not to make it public.

"This... could you make it public? If not, we're willing to pay to watch it!"

Someone shouted urgently.

"Yes, yes, we are willing to pay to watch it, we just ask that you two big shots let us watch it."

Hearing what everyone was saying, King Tianlu looked at Lin Yang and asked, "Why don't you take this opportunity to make some extra money?"

Lin Yang countered, "You don't mind?"

"I don't mind at all," Tianlu Wang said, shrugging.

"Everyone outside is saying that King Bao Ning has broken through. Among the remaining king-level experts, the outcome of your battle with me could have a significant impact on who is number one."

Lin Yang reminded him.

Tianlu Wang frowned almost imperceptibly: "I don't quite understand what you mean."

“If you fight me, you will undoubtedly lose, and that will cause some controversy.” Lin Yang stared directly at King Tianluo.

Tianlu King's expression also changed: "You're so confident?"

"Yes!" Lin Yang smiled faintly.

He wasn't the type of person who would easily utter such seemingly arrogant words.

However, there are some people in the ancient war city who are very fond of King Tianluo.

If Tianlu King were to lose in a public battle, it could negatively impact his reputation.

That's why he did it that way.

Because he was absolutely confident that Tianluo Wang was no match for him now.

Tianlu King frowned even deeper, but quickly said calmly, "It doesn't matter. I only seek a breakthrough; reputation is unimportant." (End of Chapter)
