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

The noise of the training ground gradually subsided, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the continuous palaces of the Qiankun Sect, gilding them with a golden-red halo.

Lin Langtian stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the training ground, watching the sect disciples who were still excitedly discussing the battle just now, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

For ordinary people, the terrifying extent of Lin Langtian's increase in strength is indeed unimaginable.

After all, even in the vast world, it is extremely rare, if not unique, for someone to advance from a sixth-grade supreme to a supreme being in just two years.

But Lin Langtian was well aware of his situation.

He knew that the reason he was able to advance to the Earthly Supreme realm in just two years was because he had a great opportunity.

First, the abundant divine sea energy within the Divine Beast Plains, and the slow passage of time in that space, allowed Lin Langtian to accumulate unimaginable foundations in the Supreme Realm in just over half a year.

Secondly, as the ruler of the Tianxuan Continent, Lin Langtian was also able to obtain the energy support of a lower plane, which is why he advanced to the Earthly Supreme level at an extremely unbelievable speed after breaking through the peak of the Ninth Grade Supreme.

It can be said that Lin Langtian's growth path is something that even the strongest people in those top super powers cannot replicate.

"Vice Sect Master." At this moment, a respectful voice came from behind.

Lin Langtian turned around and saw a disciple in blue robes standing respectfully; he was a personal disciple of Sect Master Qian Tian.

"The sect leader requests your presence. Please, Vice Sect Leader, proceed to the Qiankun Hall."

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian nodded slightly and followed the disciple through numerous halls and pavilions, arriving at the most magnificent hall deep within the sect.

Inside the Qiankun Hall, the lights were on.

Qian Tian sat upright in the main seat. When he saw Lin Langtian enter, a smile of emotion and satisfaction appeared on his face.

He gestured for Lin Langtian to sit down, then dismissed the attendants on either side, leaving only the two of them in the hall.

"Disciple Lin Langtian greets Sect Master." Lin Langtian bowed respectfully.

Qian Tian waved his hand and said with a smile, "There are no outsiders here, no need for formalities, please sit down."

Lin Langtian sat down, his gaze meeting Qian Tian's. He could sense the deep emotion and satisfaction hidden in the latter's eyes.

"Langtian," Qian Tian spoke first, his voice low and gentle, filled with emotion.

"Even though I saw back then that you were no ordinary person, I never expected that you would advance to the Earthly Supreme level in just under two years. It seems that you have indeed obtained considerable opportunities during this time."

"In today's battle, you single-handedly defeated both Xue Mingzi and the Barbarian Emperor, greatly enhancing the prestige of our Qiankun Sect. Especially those newly joined powerhouses, after this battle, they will likely dare not harbor even the slightest arrogance."

Lin Langtian shook his head slightly: "Sect Master is too kind. This disciple has only done his best and lived up to the position of Vice Sect Master."

"Do your best?" Qian Tian chuckled. "You're quite modest, kid. Xue Mingzi and Man Di are both veteran Earth Sovereigns, with hundreds of years of fame. Even when I was an Earth Sovereign, I might not have been able to defeat them as easily as you."

"You, on the other hand, subdued two people with just a few punches and kicks, and you say you only did your best?"

Lin Langtian did not reply. With his foundation and the power of the Eight Heavenly Demons, he was confident that he could kill even some top-level upper Earthly Sovereigns, let alone two ordinary lower Earthly Sovereigns.

Of course, Lin Langtian would not easily reveal his trump cards. It was not that he did not trust Qian Tian, ​​but it was just a habit he had developed over the years.

At this moment, Lin Langtian raised his head and looked at Qian Tian with sincere eyes: "By the way, Sect Master, the first person I want to thank upon my return is the Sect Master."

If the sect leader hadn't sent a timely message informing me of the impending disaster on the Tianxuan Continent, I'm afraid I'd still be in the dark. And when I finally find out, I fear…”

He didn't finish speaking, but his meaning was clear.

Upon hearing this, Qian Tian waved his hand and said, "You don't need to thank me. I promised you back then that I would keep an eye on the news of the Tianxuan Continent for you. If I weren't at the critical moment of advancing to the Upper Earthly Sovereign, I probably would have taken action myself."

Moreover, you are the Vice Sect Master of my Qiankun Sect; your affairs are the affairs of the sect.

He paused, then suddenly laughed and said, "However, I never expected that your return would not only resolve the crisis in the Tianxuan Continent, but also cause your strength to surge, allowing you to step into the Earthly Sovereign realm in one fell swoop."

Moreover, judging from today's battle, your foundation is so solid, and your power so domineering, that even I could not match you back then."

Lin Langtian smiled slightly: "This disciple also had some fortuitous opportunities. I broke through to the Ninth Grade Supreme in the Divine Beast Plain, and then broke through to the Earth Supreme with the help of the power of the Tianxuan Continent."

"I see. I never imagined that you, Langtian, possessed such great fortune that you actually gained the recognition of a plane."

Upon hearing this, Qian Tian understood why Lin Langtian's strength had improved so quickly, and couldn't help but sigh.

As a supreme being, how could Qian Tian not know that unimaginable powers exist in the Great Thousand World, such as the power of continents or the power of planes? If one could obtain the blessing of these powers, even an ordinary strongman could soar to the heavens and stand proudly among all heroes.

However, neither the power of the plane nor the power of the continent can be touched by ordinary strongmen. The power of the continent can only be mobilized by Heavenly Sovereigns, and it is an extremely precious resource that ordinary forces and strongmen cannot access.

As for the power of a plane, it is the most fundamental and powerful force of a plane. Even if some powerful beings from the Great Thousand Worlds go to the lower plane and go through great hardships to try to gain the recognition of the plane's embryo, it is not so easy for them to gain recognition because they are 'outsiders'.

The talisman ancestor is a typical example.

Therefore, upon learning of Lin Langtian's extraordinary encounter, Qian Tian couldn't help but feel envious.

Lin Langtian remained calm and said solemnly, "Sect Master, you flatter me. I owe my success today entirely to the Qiankun Sect's nurturing and the kindness of their messenger."

This kindness and gratitude will be etched in my heart.

Qian Tian waved his hand and smiled, "No need to be polite. Speaking of which, I owe you a favor for that perfect-grade spiritual liquid. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to advance to the upper-level Earthly Sovereign and restore the Qiankun Sect to its former glory."

"From now on, you will be the Vice Sect Master of my Qiankun Sect, and this will also be your home."

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian nodded. Although he had always had an idea in his heart, which was to establish his own foundation in the Great Thousand World and then bring his relatives and friends from the Tianxuan Continent here.

But Lin Langtian also knew that with his current strength, he was probably not strong enough to support his ambitions.

At present, relying on the Qiankun Sect to strengthen our power is not a bad choice.

Upon seeing Lin Langtian's agreement, Qian Tian also smiled.

In his view, Lin Langtian was no longer a hidden dragon, but had grown into a true dragon, and the latter's future might far exceed his imagination.

Just as Qian Tian was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed, as if he had remembered something.

"By the way, Langtian," he said, his gaze slightly narrowing, "you are now a Supreme Being, what are your plans for the future?"

Lin Langtian pondered for a moment and said, "This disciple plans to first consolidate his cultivation in the sect, while continuing to search for Brother Dong's whereabouts. When the time is right, he may travel to the deeper parts of the Great Thousand World."

Qian Tian nodded slightly, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes.

Immediately, he lowered his voice and his expression became serious.

"Since you have this intention, I do have some news that might be useful to you."

Lin Langtian's gaze sharpened: "Please enlighten me, Sect Master."

Qian Tian slowly rose, walked to the window of the main hall with his hands behind his back, looked at the night sky outside the window, and spoke in a deep and distant voice.

"An ancient ruin has been opened on the Wuji Continent."

"The Boundless Continent?" Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow slightly.

It was a continent not far from the Qiankun Continent. Although he had never been there, he had heard of its name. It was a continent that was much older and more vast than the Qiankun Continent.

It is said that on that continent, more than one peerless powerhouse at the Heavenly Sovereign level was born.

"Who left those ruins?"

Qian Tian turned around, looked directly at Lin Langtian, and said, word by word.

"The Undying King".

The moment those three words reached his ears, Lin Langtian's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Undying King!
Even though he had only recently arrived in this world, he had heard of this name before.

He was a peerless powerhouse who truly stood at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand Worlds. It was said that he had already stepped into the realm of Heavenly Sovereign, and even among Heavenly Sovereigns, he was an extremely top-tier existence.

He was known as the Immortal because of the strength of his physical body, which was almost immortal. He once withstood the siege of several powerful opponents of the same level without being defeated, and his prestige shook the world.

In addition, the reason why the Undying King was able to obtain such a title is because he cultivated one of the five original Dharma bodies of the Great Thousand World, the lower Dharma body of the Eternal Immortal Body, the Immortal Golden Body!

So, his ruins... (End of Chapter)
