Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 272

Thunder Sea, Outer Realm

On the huge Zhenhai Black Whale, Lin Dong sat quietly on the back of the Black Whale with his eyes closed. Circles of powerful Yuan Power lingered around his body, as well as a strong vitality force, which flowed in and out of Lin Dong's body along with the Yuan Power.

But as the Yuan force was inhaled and exhaled, the vitality became increasingly thinner. It was obviously absorbed by Lin Dong and integrated into his body. At this time, the fluctuation of the Yuan force in Lin Dong's body had already reached the great perfection realm of Shengxuan Realm.

Back when he was on Xuanling Island, Lin Dong could have used the spiritual fluid in the earth's core to break through to the Great Accomplishment of Shengxuan Realm, but Lin Dong did not rush for success. Now, after such a long time, it can be said that it has come to fruition.

Even with the help of the remaining vitality of the spiritual pulp in the earth's core, he was able to stabilize himself at the peak of the Shengxuan realm.

"call!"

Lin Dong slowly opened his eyes and gently exhaled, letting out the frustration that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time. Finally, there was a hint of joy on his face.

Feeling the surging fluctuations of Yuanli in his body, Lin Dong couldn't help but reveal a smile. Now, after reaching the peak of Shengxuan Realm, he was only one step away from Shengxuan Realm Perfection. Coupled with his spiritual power cultivation as a minor success of Immortal Talisman Master, ordinary Shengxuan Realm Perfection strongmen were no match for him.

Apart from his cultivation, Lin Dong's Qing Tian Hua Long Jue was also extremely powerful. With the help of the Great Desolate Scripture, he could fight against ordinary Death Profound Realm cultivators.

If the Burning Heaven Cauldron, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman and many other means were used together, no strong person below the Wheel-Turning Realm would have an easy time. Even when facing a strong person in the Wheel-Turning Realm, there might be a chance to escape.

More than two years ago, on the top of Baichao Mountain, the three giants of Yuanmen forced the three brothers to suffer humiliation, which Lin Dong always remembered in his heart.

Back then, if the young patriarch had not protected the three brothers and fought against many powerful men of Yuanmen alone, the three brothers might have died.

Although Lin Dong never showed this matter on weekdays, he always kept it in his heart.

And now, he finally had a little strength to face the strong ones in the Wheel-Turning Realm. Although, it was still not enough to pose a threat to the strong ones in the Wheel-Turning Realm, let alone being the opponent of the real strong ones in the Wheel-Turning Realm. Moreover, the strength of the three old dogs of Yuanmen was no longer at the Wheel-Turning Realm.

But Lin Dong still felt a little excited. At least, he had barely reached the level of the three old dogs of Yuanmen. Next, he just needed to continue working hard to reach the level of the Wheel-Turning Realm, or even surpass the Wheel-Turning Realm. It would only be a matter of time before he surpassed the three old dogs of Yuanmen!

"I will personally pay back the humiliation I suffered back then!"

A hint of coldness flashed across Lin Dong's eyes. Yuanmen had always been a huge rock pressing down on Lin Dong, but now, he had begun to be able to shake it a little.

As for the Demonic Prison, don't be in a hurry. Let's deal with them one by one and deal with the Yuan Gate first.

When Xiao Diao saw Lin Dong like this, the tacit understanding between the brothers made Xiao Diao understand what Lin Dong was thinking almost instantly. He didn't say anything, but just reached out and patted Lin Dong on the shoulder. Xiao Yan on the side walked over silently.

The three brothers looked at each other in silence, but they all knew in their hearts that the debt owed back then would be repaid personally by the three of them!

"My brother-in-law just made a breakthrough. This is something to be happy about. There's no need to be so serious."

Seeing this, Gu Mengqi smiled and interrupted, making the atmosphere relaxed. Gu Yan was holding a sea chart, studying it and speaking softly.

"Although we have arrived at the outer area of ​​the Tianlei Sea, we still have about a day's journey to the real Tianlei Sea. That is the most difficult road to travel!"

At the end of her speech, Gu Yan's face became more serious. Although Xiao Diao was very powerful, the news of the emergence of the cave of a powerful warrior in the Samsara Realm in the Tianlei Sea still attracted too many powerful people to come, including many old monsters in the Death Profound Realm.

Among those old monsters in the Death Profound Realm, there might be strong men at the peak of the Death Profound Realm who are ready to make a final effort and break through to the Wheel-Turning Realm.

For those people, Xiao Diao is indeed strong, but it does not mean that they have no way to deal with him. If several people join forces, it will also be a troublesome thing for Xiao Diao.

In particular, the Sky Thunder Sea blocked strong men above the Wheel-Turning Realm from entering, and Xiao Diao, who was only at the peak of the Death Profound Realm but had a combat power that was not inferior to that of a strong man in the Wheel-Turning Realm, was undoubtedly an outlier, an outlier that was above everyone else and the biggest competitor.

At that time, most of those powerful people in the Death Profound Realm would join forces to fight against Xiao Diao. Although Xiao Diao could protect himself with the Space Ancestral Talisman, I am afraid they would not be able to achieve any success.

Lin Dong and Xiao Diao's expressions also became more solemn upon hearing this. They knew even more clearly that the emergence of the Thunder Emperor's Cave Mansion was definitely more dangerous than Gu Yan and the others had imagined. This was not just a cave mansion of a powerful person in the Reincarnation Realm, but the emergence of an ancestral talisman.

The Demon Prison will never give up this opportunity. It will definitely send strong men to mingle among the adventurer army, taking the opportunity to fan the flames and secretly create trouble or even crisis for them.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Xiao Diao's brows furrowed, his face instantly turned cold, he turned his head to look somewhere, and said in a cold voice.

"Who are you? Such behavior is somewhat beneath your status."

"Haha, what a crazy little fellow! This is consistent with my impression of your Heavenly Demon Marten clan. It seems that after the death of the Six-Fingered Holy Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Clan was unable to subdue you!"

The hearty laughter echoed between heaven and earth, causing Xiao Diao to frown slightly. That old thing seemed to know a lot about their Tian Yao Diao clan?
Lin Dong was also somewhat puzzled, but what puzzled him even more was Mu Lingshan’s reaction. After hearing that voice, Mu Lingshan actually kept hiding behind him, as if she was a little afraid of that person.

This made Lin Dong feel a little more alert, and he secretly gave Xiao Diao a look. The latter understood, and the space ancestral symbol in his body also released a space force to protect them.

"Haha, little guy, don't be nervous. I have no ill will towards you."

Mu Lan said with a smile, and then, his figure slowly emerged from the space. He looked helplessly at Mu Lingshan who was hiding behind Lin Dong like an ostrich.

"Girl, you really don't want to see Third Grandpa?"

Third Grandfather? Lin Dong was stunned after hearing this. It turned out that this unknown senior in front of him was actually an elder of the Mu Lingshan clan. Doesn’t that mean he is from the Immortal Holy Whale clan?

"No way, as long as Third Grandpa doesn't let Lingshan go back, Lingshan will definitely want to see Third Grandpa."

Mu Lingshan pouted and walked out from behind Lin Dong reluctantly, like a little girl who had been wronged, which made Mu Lan angry and amused.

"Girl, Third Grandpa is worried about you. You left the tribe secretly this time and were hunted by the Blood Demon Shark Tribe. If something happens to you, how will Third Grandpa explain to your Great Grandpa?"

As he spoke, Mu Lan also dodged and landed directly on the back of the Zhenhai Black Whale.

The little mink put away his guard and looked at Mu Lan's actions, and couldn't help but curl his lips, but he didn't say much. After all, the Immortal Holy Whale Clan can be said to be the dominant clan among sea beasts, and its status is no worse than their Heavenly Demon Marten Clan. "Humph, Third Grandpa, you know that those stinky sharks bullied me, and you didn't help me get revenge, but you are still laughing at me here, humph! I won't pay attention to you!"

Mu Lingshan snorted delicately and turned away without looking at Mu Lan, which made Mu Lan so angry that he couldn't help but shook his head, sighed, and had to explain softly.

"Don't worry. When your great grandfather is done with his work, he will personally go to the Blood Demon Shark Clan and make sure they give you an explanation. Is that okay?"

"Humph, that's more like it. But, Third Grandpa, I don't want to go back yet. You can't take me back. Otherwise, I will, I will..."

Mu Lingshan threatened Mu Lan for a long time but didn't know how to threaten Mu Lan. Then, she caught a glimpse of Lin Dong standing beside her, and an idea suddenly occurred to her, so she continued to speak.

"Humph, I'll elope with Brother Lin Dong!"

"elopement?"

Mu Lan's eyes narrowed instantly, and she subconsciously glanced at Lin Dong who was standing beside her. An extremely powerful pressure instantly fell on Lin Dong.

Xiao Diao at the side was stunned at first, and after he reacted, he hesitated for a moment, and still did not choose to help. Instead, he pulled Xiao Yan to the side, crossed his arms, and looked at Lin Dong with a gloating look on his face.

As for Lin Dong himself, he was completely stunned. He had never expected Mu Lingshan to say that, and he was not prepared for Mu Lan's sudden attack. He was directly pressed down on the back of the Zhenhai Black Whale by this pressure.

"Humph!"

After seeing Lin Dong lying on the back of the Zhenhai Black Whale, Mu Lan flicked his sleeves indifferently, retracted his own pressure, and spoke to Lin Dong nonchalantly.

"I never thought that Aokiji's successor would only be at this level. This is a bit disappointing."

"I……"

Lin Dong was beginning to doubt his life at this point. He had done nothing, but was suddenly "attacked" by Mu Lan's coercion and was also criticized. This made Lin Dong feel a little aggrieved.

"Why, you're still not convinced?"

Mu Lan looked at Lin Dong with a smile on her face. Seeing that Lin Dong had a slightly indignant look on his face, she glanced at Lin Qingtan out of the corner of her eye, then chuckled and said.

If it was the case that Mu Lan was planning to take action against Lin Dong before in order to give Bo Xuan a face and give Lin Dong some pointers, then now Mu Lan simply wanted to see Lin Dong's strength and, by the way, give Lin Dong some pointers on his practice.

How dare he abduct the precious daughter of the Immortal Holy Whale Clan and elope? Shouldn't this kid have a good look at the strength and means of the Immortal Holy Whale Clan?

“Lin Dong doesn’t dare!”

Lin Dong said while gritting his teeth. He could guess that the reason why Mu Lan suddenly started to make things difficult for him was definitely related to Mu Lingshan's unintentional words.

This made Lin Dong feel helpless. This was definitely an unexpected disaster!

What's more, this senior from the Immortal Holy Whale Clan was acquainted with his master, the Azure Dragon King Aokiji, and could be considered his elder. It was impossible for Lin Dong to contradict Mu Lan even though he was somewhat in the wrong about such a matter.

"Don't say that I won't give you a chance. I will suppress my strength to the same level as you. As long as you can survive ten moves in my hands with the Qingtian Hualong Jue, I will no longer ask about your affairs with Lingshan. How do you think?"

Lin Dong knew that those were unintentional words from Mu Lingshan, and Mu Lan naturally knew it as well. But for some things, it is often these unintentional words that can better reflect one's inner thoughts.

In addition, Mu Lan had heard Lin Xuan talk about the secrets between the Ancestral Talisman of Life and Death and the Ancestral Talisman of Devouring before. To be honest, Mu Lan didn't know how to deal with Mu Lingshan's "unintentional words".

After all, Lin Dong himself has outstanding talent. He is also the controller of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, the heir of the Ancestral Stone, the direct descendant of the Talisman Ancestor, and has a relationship with the Azure Dragon King and the Sword Saint. So he is indeed a good match.

That's right, this boy is really too romantic.

However, it is not easy for them, the Immortal Holy Whale Clan, to interfere in the affairs between Mu Lingshan and Lin Dong. The connection between the two ancestral talismans is there. Unless they really seal Mu Lingshan completely and let her return to the origin of the ancestral talisman of life and death, that is absolutely impossible.

For the Immortal Holy Whale clan, Mu Lingshan is equivalent to the second Lord of Life and Death cultivated by the entire clan. Apart from the ancestor who escaped into reincarnation and whose whereabouts are unknown, Mu Lingshan is the most important Lord of Life and Death.

"Senior, this..."

Lin Dong was stunned and subconsciously turned his head to look at Gu Yan and Lin Qingtan beside him. Gu Yan pursed her lips tightly but didn't say anything. On the contrary, Lin Qingtan glared at Lin Dong in dissatisfaction but also didn't say anything.

"Lin Dong, what are you thinking about? Agree to it first. This person wants to teach you how to practice. Strength is the most important thing."

Just when Lin Dong didn't know how to respond, Yan's voice suddenly sounded in Lin Dong's heart, making Lin Dong sigh slightly. However, Lin Dong didn't realize that in fact, in his subconscious mind, he did not reject it, or he instinctively had a special feeling for Mu Lingshan.

Otherwise, Lin Dong would not have subconsciously looked at Gu Yan and Lin Qingtan instead of Mu Lingshan. In fact, after Mu Lingshan finished speaking and was forced to the ground by Mu Lan's pressure, he would not have felt aggrieved and guilty.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Dong would definitely explain it clearly first instead of reacting like this.

“Since the senior is willing to give me advice, how can Lin Dong refuse? Please!”

After taking a deep breath, Lin Dong solemnly clasped his fists towards Mu Lan and spoke in a deep voice. Mu Lingshan, who was standing behind Lin Dong, gradually blushed after hearing Lin Dong's response, but there was a bit of youthful charm in her eyes as she stared at Lin Dong's back.

Mu Lan felt a little heartbroken when she saw this scene, but she also understood that perhaps this was fate, so she could only shake her head helplessly.

At the same time, he understood Bo Xuan's feelings more and more, because at this moment, Mu Lan just wanted to catch this brat in front of him and beat him up.

"You have courage and have not embarrassed Aokiji, but that alone is not enough!"

Mu Lan chuckled, and with a move of her body, she arrived above the sea. Upon seeing this, Lin Dong quickly activated his Azure Dragon Wings and followed.
