Wu Dong: I, Lin Langtian, will not play a supporting role

Ten jade bottles flew towards him, and Lin Langtian quickly caught them.

Then he stared at the blood essence in those jade bottles, which were of different colors but all contained extremely pure and powerful spiritual energy. He was stunned for a moment before looking up.

In the distorted space in front of him, the Grand Elder stood in mid-air, though he looked somewhat travel-worn.

Noticing Lin Langtian's gaze, the First Elder's aged face showed a hint of annoyance.

"These are the divine beast essences I need? Did you personally go to the auction house to buy them, Elder?" Lin Langtian asked, suppressing his overwhelming joy as he held the ten jade bottles.

"Nonsense! Do you expect me to search everywhere for these divine beasts and then kill them one by one? Do you think these divine beasts are like stray dogs and cats on the roadside that you can stomp on and kill with one step?" The First Elder said somewhat irritably.

The Grand Elder continued, "It cost a fortune in Supreme Spirit Liquid to obtain the essence blood of these divine beasts. Moreover, the auction houses only sold them at a discount because of the Qiankun Sect. Others, even with enough Supreme Spirit Liquid, would not have been able to buy them."

Lin Langtian nodded upon hearing this. He naturally understood that the divine beast blood he needed was not simple, and one or two of the divine beasts were ranked quite high on the list of divine beasts in the Record of Ten Thousand Beasts.

This level of divine beast blood essence is generally quite rare and expensive, and it is extremely difficult to collect it all.

The auction houses sold these divine beast essences to the Grand Elder entirely because of the Qiankun Sect's influence; otherwise, if Lin Langtian had gone instead, he probably would have returned empty-handed.

"Thank you, Great Elder."

Lin Langtian held the jade bottle and expressed his sincere gratitude. He had no relation to the Grand Elder, so Lin Langtian was somewhat surprised that the other party would do such a thing.

Judging from the Elder's travel-worn appearance, one could guess that he had probably been traveling to various auction houses across the Qiankun Continent these past few days, collecting the essence blood of these divine beasts.

Upon hearing this, the First Elder waved his hand and said irritably, "You'd better not thank me. If it weren't for that girl Yinlan pestering me so much, I wouldn't have bothered with this mess of yours..."

"Because of Jiang Yinlan..." Lin Langtian was taken aback.

He had only casually mentioned it to Jiang Yinlan, after all, he wanted to use the Yinlan Palace's channels to inquire about the information on the essence blood of these divine beasts, but he didn't expect the latter to directly ask the Grand Elder for help.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian felt a warmth in his heart.

"Regardless, thank you very much, Elder." Lin Langtian said with a smile.

"Alright, no need for thanks. You are the new king of my Qiankun Sect, so consider these things as a reward from the sect." The Grand Elder waved his hand and said, "The Continental Hunting War is coming soon. Every bit of improvement you make will be a great help to my Qiankun Sect."

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian pondered for a moment, then said, "There should still be two months until the Continental Hunting War... Elder, could you tell me more about this Great Hunting War?"

Now I am also a member of the Qiankun Sect... If possible, I would like to contribute my share.

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder pondered for a moment, then said, "Actually, there's not much to say. The so-called Continental Hunting War is just a brutal war of survival of the fittest."

Since my Qiankun Sect lost its dominant position, numerous heroes have risen up across the Qiankun Continent, and top-tier forces have emerged. Therefore, the situation has always been one of coexistence among a pack of wolves, rather than a tiger leading all the beasts.

"Is this continental hunting war about wolves trying to become tigers?" Lin Langtian's eyes flashed as he asked.

“The world is never short of ambition,” the Grand Elder said calmly. “Only by unifying the Qiankun Continent can one stand out in this vast world and become a true overlord, rather than a local tyrant in a corner.”

"This is an unwritten rule of the Qiankun Continent. No one knows when it was passed down, but once the rule is established, no one can break it, because if it is broken, one must become an enemy of all other forces."

"So this continental hunting war has been passed down time and time again, but apart from my Qiankun Sect, no tigers have appeared since then... However, I think they might appear this time." The Grand Elder said with a solemn expression.

Lin Langtian was also slightly taken aback, staring at the Grand Elder, and asked, "Why?"

"Do you know the location of the Continental Hunting War?" the Grand Elder asked.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly and said, "Destroy the graveyard?"

The Destruction Graveyard is a forbidden area on the Qiankun Continent. It is said that in ancient times, when extraterrestrial races invaded the Great Thousand Worlds, they attacked the Qiankun Continent, and a fierce war broke out on this continent.

This devastated graveyard is now one of the ancient battlefields on the continent.

Countless top experts perished here in the past, hence the name "Destruction Graveyard" given to it by later generations. The name itself conveys a sense of cruelty and devastation.

This devastated graveyard was infamous throughout the Qiankun Continent because it contained the inheritances of many powerful figures, including quite a few super-powerful ones like the Earthly Sovereign. As a result, it once attracted countless powerful individuals to flock there.

However, few of those who attempted to enter the ruined graveyard in search of treasure ever came out alive.

Because so many powerful beings had perished in that devastated graveyard, the spiritual energy within it was as violent as a volcano, with spiritual energy storms erupting from time to time. Even super powerhouses at the Earthly Sovereign level were extremely wary of it.

Therefore, with more and more treasure hunters going there and never returning, the Destroyed Graveyard has become a notorious and forbidden place in the Qiankun Continent.

“Yes, it’s about destroying the graveyard.” The Grand Elder nodded slowly. He said, “In ancient times, some super strong individuals at the Earthly Sovereign level perished there, and the ultimate goal of the Continental Hunting War is to destroy these deceased Earthly Sovereigns.”

Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes.

"Do you know about the Spirit Elixir?" the Grand Elder asked again.

A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Langtian's eyes.

The Grand Elder said to himself, "When a powerful Earthly Sovereign falls, his Sovereign Sea will weather away with the passage of time."

When the Supreme Sea Breeze reaches its ultimate state, it will condense into Spirit God Liquid, which is the final essence of a Supreme Earth expert. "When the Grand Elder spoke of the Spirit God Liquid, a hint of covetousness unconsciously flashed in his eyes.

"That kind of spiritual liquid is extremely beneficial to those who have stepped into the Earthly Sovereign level... However, the spiritual energy storm in the Destroyed Graveyard is extremely terrifying, and only at certain special times will the storm weaken."

This time coincides with the continental hunting war.

"The Earth Desolate Palace has survived four great hunting wars without being destroyed. Back then, Huang Kurong was a peerless genius who was no less than the sect master. After betraying the sect, his strength improved day by day and became unfathomable."

Therefore, Huang Ku Rong is the person who has obtained the most Spirit God Liquid among all the top forces in the Qiankun Continent... And as far as I know, that guy is currently at the peak of the Lower Earthly Sovereign.

If he succeeds in obtaining the Spirit God Liquid this time, he will very likely break through and advance to the Upper Earthly Sovereign realm.

"Besides him, our Qiankun Sect Master could also be in this situation..."

"And once someone possesses the strength of a supreme being, almost no one in the Qiankun Continent will be able to stop him. At that time, he will become a tiger and eventually unify the Qiankun Continent."

"A Supreme Earthly Sovereign..." Lin Langtian's eyes narrowed slightly. This level of strength was not to be underestimated, even in the vast world.

The source of this brutal war, the Continental Hunting War, is probably that Spirit God Liquid. "This Great Hunting War will likely be the most thrilling one in history..." the Grand Elder said with some worry.

Others may not know Qian Tian's situation, but as the Grand Elder of the Qiankun Sect, he knows a thing or two. Ever since Huang Kurong betrayed and ambushed him, Qian Tian has suffered a fatal injury.

This injury was like a leech clinging to a bone, not only greatly suppressing Qian Tian's cultivation speed, but even causing his cultivation level to regress.

If it weren't for this, Qian Tian would probably have already advanced to the Upper Earthly Sovereign level without needing the Spirit God Liquid, and the Qiankun Continent would not have ended up in such a situation of many heroes vying for power.

Lin Langtian pursed his lips. Although the continental hunting war had not yet arrived, he could already faintly smell the strong stench of blood.

I wonder which top power will ultimately be divided and devoured in that continental hunting war...

Deep within the Silver Mist Palace.

Outside an empty stone pool, Lin Langtian sat quietly cross-legged.

He gazed at the stone pool before him, flicked his finger, and ten jade bottles appeared before him.

Lin Langtian stared at the ten jade bottles, his expression becoming more serious.

Although he obtained the legendary Dragon Kun Divine Body in the Dragon Kun Realm, he knew that his Dragon Kun Divine Body was only at the initial stage.

However, if he wants to reach the level of truly possessing the power of the Dragon God and the Kun God, he needs to go through arduous training.

And right now, we're taking that first step.

Lin Langtian removed all his clothes, revealing his slender body that contained terrifying power. On his chest and back, there were patterns of the Dragon God and the Kun God.

Lin Langtian looked down at the dragon god and Kun god patterns. He gently touched them with his palm. They were not simple patterns, but rather gave people a strange feeling as if they were alive.

According to the Dragon Kun Divine Technique, cultivating the Dragon Kun Divine Body is divided into three stages.

The first stage is the activation of the true spirit, the second stage is the transformation, and the third stage is the appearance of the dragon-kun.

What Lin Langtian needs to do now is the first stage of 'activating the true spirit'.

Lin Langtian let out a soft breath, then without hesitation, he flicked his finger, and a beam of spiritual light shot out, shattering a jade bottle.

Chi Chi.

As the jade bottle shattered, several drops of dark red, viscous blood suddenly fell out of thin air.

The essence blood eventually dripped into the huge stone pool, but immediately afterwards, it began to expand at an astonishing speed.

In just a few breaths, those drops of essence blood transformed into a surging pool of blood, rippling within the stone pool.

A surge of violent spiritual energy and a strong stench of blood suddenly rose into the sky, like a tangible divine beast, sending chills down one's spine.

"Truly worthy of being the essence of an ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex..."

Lin Langtian gazed at the churning blood pool and couldn't help but sigh. Just a few drops of essence blood were enough to turn into an entire pool of blood. This ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex truly lived up to its ranking on the Divine Beast List.

This divine beast's blood essence has not undergone any refinement, so it is full of aggression.

However, this is exactly what Lin Langtian needs. Only with the most primal essence of divine beasts can the spirit of the Dragon God Kun be activated.

Lin Langtian gazed at the churning blood pool, his hands slowly clenching. Then, without any hesitation, he stripped off his clothes and leaped directly into the crimson blood pool.

Pfft!
Blood splattered as Lin Langtian sat cross-legged in the blood pool, his hands forming a seal. Instantly, the blood pool churned, and a crimson vortex formed. At the source of that vortex was Lin Langtian, who was sitting cross-legged.

Chi Chi!

At this moment, countless angry roars seemed to resound from within the blood pool. As the blood churned, it transformed into a Tyrannosaurus Rex, which then viciously tore at Lin Langtian's body.

Lin Langtian endured the excruciating pain, changed his hand seals, and began to activate the Dragon Kun Divine Technique.

Then, the dragon and Kun patterns on Lin Langtian's chest and back began to emit specks of spiritual light, followed by what seemed to be a deep dragon roar and Kun howl.

Immediately afterwards, the crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex was shattered, turning into streaks of blood that flowed continuously down Lin Langtian's skin, and were finally devoured without mercy by the Dragon God Kun Divine Pattern.

Although the essence of this ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex was powerful, it was clearly a level below the spirit of the Dragon God Kun.

His absorption process lasted for a full four days.

During these four days, Lin Langtian could vaguely sense that something was gradually regenerating from the flesh and blood of his chest and back.

By dusk on the fourth day, the water in the stone pool had gradually dried up.

At the same time, Lin Langtian flicked his finger again, and this time, both jade bottles shattered simultaneously.

Several drops of blood of different colors rolled down, eventually turning into a torrent of blood that submerged the entire stone pool, including Lin Langtian's figure.

Lin Langtian sat cross-legged at the bottom of the stone pool, his body completely still.

The light from the dragon god pattern and the Kun god pattern on its chest and back grew brighter and brighter.

The original patterns, however, began to come to life as they were nourished with more and more divine beast blood.

A wisp of bloody light gradually wrapped around Lin Langtian's body, slowly covering it up.

For the next two weeks, Lin Langtian never left the stone pool.

As more and more divine beast blood dripped down, the bloody aura almost formed a beam of blood-red light that shot into the sky, causing a commotion within the Silver Mist Palace.

This turmoil even startled Jiang Yinlan, who was in seclusion. She rushed to the stone pool and, after checking and finding no accident to Lin Langtian, breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the area to be sealed off.

Meanwhile, Lin Langtian in the stone pool was still refining the essence blood of the divine beast day and night… (End of Chapter)
