Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 486 The Temptation of Heavenly Martial Arts

Liang Jin's words were like an extremely sharp blade, stabbing straight at Jiang Lengxue without any mercy, and leaving her no mercy at all.

When Jiang Lengxue heard this, she was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and froze in place for an instant.

On weekdays, in her eyes, Liang Jin always looked kind, easy-going and easy to get along with. No matter what situation he faced, he could handle it calmly and with a pleasant expression.

But at this moment, Liang Jin, who had turned against her, made her feel extremely unfamiliar.

This sudden change made Jiang Lengxue's mind go blank and chaotic for a moment, as if countless buzzing flies were running around in it.

yes……

She repeatedly asked herself in her heart, who was she to him?

Why do you act on your own and make decisions for him without authorization?

In the sect, Liang Jin, as the leader, controls the power of life and death of the entire sect.

Although she was once the wife of the former leader, times have changed and she is now just an ordinary elder in the sect, not even the deputy leader. She has no qualifications to interfere in matters at such a critical moment.

In real life, there is no special relationship between her and Liang Jin. They are just acquaintances from the same school.

Therefore, whether from a public or private perspective, she had no reason to make the decision for Liang Jin.

"me……"

Jiang Lengxue opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be choked by something, and it was extremely dry, and she couldn't make a complete sound.

She was completely caught off guard by Liang Jin's rebuke, and for a moment, she couldn't find any suitable words to respond.

Liang Jin stretched out his hand, his movements decisive and cold, and gently pushed her away.

Jiang Lengxue's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground. An indescribable feeling of loss and grievance surged in her heart.

Then, Liang Jin walked towards Jiang Duanchao and Canxin step by step with his head held high.

As he walked, he shouted to the two of them:

"We didn't finish fighting just now, let's continue now."

"But fighting one against two is boring, fighting one against three is more exciting."

At the end of his speech, he raised his hand, pointed his slender fingers directly at Gu Jinfu, and shouted loudly:

"You eunuch over there, please join us."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Duanchao, Canxin and Gu Jinfu all raised their eyebrows, and murderous intent instantly flashed in their eyes, as if burning with raging flames.

This kid is so arrogant and looks down on others!

It seems that if he is not taught a profound lesson today, he really won't know his own limitations!

At this time, Jiang Lengxue was staring blankly at Liang Jin's back.

When she heard Liang Jin's words, she was shocked, her eyes widened in fear.

One against three?

This is simply courting death!
Jiang Lengxue subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop Liang Jin again, but just as she took a step forward, she suddenly stopped, as if she had been suddenly cast under a spell.

Only then did she realize that she had just been severely scolded by Liang Jin, so why did she almost impulsively approach him again?

"I...how did I become like this?"

Jiang Lengxue pondered in his heart, feeling confused and lost.

In the past, when her late husband Shao Hongbo was still alive, Jiang Lengxue took care of her nearly paralyzed husband wholeheartedly every day. She put all her thoughts on her husband and the focus of her life revolved around him.

But with the passing of Shao Hongbo, Jiang Lengxue seemed to have lost the direction of life and fell into deep confusion.

She longed to start a new life, but like a lamb lost in a dark forest, she had no idea where to take the first step.

Therefore, she could only devote all her energy to the affairs of the sect, trying to find a sense of comfort and belonging there.

But...is it really just that?

At this moment, Jiang Lengxue seemed to be illuminated by a light deep in his heart, and he suddenly woke up.

She discovered that she was not only focusing on the sect, but unconsciously, all her attention was focused on Liang Jin!

Because Liang Jin became the new leader!
Jiang Lengxue had long been accustomed to serving the head of the sect and to the lifestyle as the head of the sect's wife. This inertia caused her to inadvertently transfer her emotional dependence on her late husband to Liang Jin.

At this moment, Jiang Lengxue seemed to see his own heart more clearly, but at the same time, he fell into deeper confusion.

She clearly remembered that she was unwilling to remarry Liang Jin, so she decisively chose to refuse.

But why now, my thoughts involuntarily revolve around Liang Jin?

Jiang Lengxue was suddenly shocked.

Could it be that Liang Jin, the person whom I looked down upon at first, has unknowingly... quietly walked into my heart?
Do not!
It's impossible!

Jiang Lengxue screamed madly in his heart.

Liang Jin acts impulsively and never considers the consequences. Now he is going to die by fighting three people alone. How could I possibly fall for such a reckless man?
Jiang Lengxue's heart was in constant struggle and conflict, and he was caught in deep entanglement.

Just when Jiang Lengxue was feeling conflicted.

Over there, Canxin, Jiang Duanchao and Gu Jinfu had already gathered all their strength, with the aura around them surging like a surging tide, ready to attack.

Their eyes were filled with murderous intent as they stared at Liang Jin, as if they were going to eat him alive in the next second.

But Liang Jin seemed unaware of it. He walked towards them step by step without stopping, looking calm and fearless.

at this time.

Zhao Xiling suddenly spoke, her voice clear and loud, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley:

"Okay, stop it now."

"That woman is right. It would be bad if both sides were hurt in a fight."

"I haven't been kidnapped. We are all here as guests at Shenlu Peak. There's no need to resort to violence."

Zhao Xiling had her own plans in mind. She also wanted to recruit all the masters present under her command.

So how could she be willing to see them suffer heavy casualties in this battle and lose the opportunity to use it for her own benefit?
Upon hearing this, Canxin immediately took the order and quickly stood behind Zhao Xiling, like a loyal guard.

Although Jiang Duanchao and Gu Jinfu were filled with resentment, like burning anger, due to the princess's status and orders, they could only suppress the murderous intent in their hearts and slowly put away the surging aura on their bodies.

Only Liang Jin remained imposing, like a towering mountain, unshakable.

He said coldly:
"I said, you don't have the final say here."

"Now, it's not like you can just not fight if you don't want to!"

As he spoke, he released all his aura without reservation.

At this moment, the entire Shenlu Peak seemed to feel this powerful aura. For a moment, the birds were startled and the beasts fled.

Even the Jade-faced Fire Monkey on Liang Jin's shoulder was frightened by this breath and trembled all over, looking at Liang Jin in horror.

The Jade-faced Fire Monkey kept rubbing his round eyes, as if he couldn't believe what he saw, and then looked at Liang Jin carefully.

It was just feeling extremely surprised. The Liang Jin in front of it clearly looked like a human, but why did he faintly exude the aura of a ferocious beast?

Moreover, this aura was so violent and fierce, like a raging tsunami. Even the Jade-faced Fire Monkey felt a deep fear, as if he was facing a higher and more powerful existence.

Of course, the Jade-faced Fire Monkey didn't know that Liang Jin had already merged with the essence and blood of the divine beast, and naturally also carried the aura of the divine beast.

However, this kind of aura is difficult for humans to clearly distinguish.

But even so, Canxin, Jiang Duanchao and Gu Jinfu could still feel the strong murderous intent coming from Liang Jin.

This made the three of them frown and become secretly alert.

Gu Jinfu snorted first, his voice so cold that it seemed to freeze the air:

"Boy, we didn't take action out of the princess's respect, not because we were afraid of you."

"If you insist on being shameless, then our family doesn't mind fulfilling your wish."

He was the third in command of the detective agency and was well-known in the underworld. When had he ever been bullied so many times?
At this point, no matter how cunning Gu Jinfu was, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.

Canxin and Jiang Duanchao also had cold eyes, revealing the same anger and dissatisfaction.

Even Zhao Xiling frowned, obviously she didn't expect Liang Jin to not give her, a princess, any face at all, and she couldn't help feeling a little angry.

Immediately, Zhao Xiling could only continue to say:

"Great and Good Master, you are a person from outside the world after all, why do you have such a bad temper?"

"Can't you just listen to what I have to say first?"

"What I'm going to say next will bring you great benefits!"

Liang Jin was dismissive of this, as if Zhao Xiling's words were just wind in his ears.

Zhao Xiling had tried to recruit Liang Jin before, offering him high positions and generous salaries, but failed each time. Yet, she still refused to give up. Liang Jin had no interest in these worldly fame and fortune.

So he did not stop, and a raging flame once again appeared on the Youlong Sword in his hand. The flame danced in the wind, as if foreshadowing the upcoming fierce battle.

Zhao Xiling had no choice but to continue:

"I know you don't want to be an official, nor do you want gold, silver, or money."

"But there's one thing that will always interest you, right?"

"I'm talking about—Heavenly-level martial arts!"

After these words were spoken, Liang Jin finally stopped and his face finally showed some emotion.

He slowly turned his head and looked at Zhao Xiling with surprise.

Not only was Liang Jin extremely surprised, but everyone present was also stunned and gasped in surprise.

Heavenly-level martial arts is just a legend in the martial arts world.

It is illusory, like a mirage, difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

If someone else said this, everyone would just laugh it off and not take it seriously.

And the person who said this was Zhao Xiling!

She is the only princess of Daqian, with an extremely noble status. The royal secrets she can access are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Now that she mentioned the heavenly-level martial arts, everyone had to think seriously about it, with countless speculations and expectations surging in their hearts.

Zhao Xiling was secretly pleased to see the effect. She put her hands behind her back and walked gracefully to Liang Jin.

"Well, are you interested?"

"Let's find a quiet place and I'll explain it to you slowly."

Liang Jin looked at Zhao Xiling, his eyes sparkling like the twinkling stars in the night sky.

It has to be said that he was indeed interested in the heavenly martial arts that Zhao Xiling mentioned.

After all, Liang Jin has already learned many earth-level martial arts so far, but there is still a vacancy in the heaven-level martial arts. This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for him who is pursuing continuous strengthening.

Finally, he said:

"Let's go to the secret room on the top of the mountain and discuss it in detail."

Naturally, not everyone is qualified to hear such valuable information as Heavenly Grade Martial Arts.

Most people could only stay outside to keep watch.

There are only five people who are qualified to enter the secret room of Shenlu Peak: Liang Jin, Zhao Xiling, Canxin, Jiang Duanchao and Gu Jinfu.

Liang Jin originally planned to talk to Zhao Xiling alone.

But Zhao Xiling told Liang Jin that if he wanted to obtain heavenly martial arts, he needed the cooperation of many people.

Liang Jin thought about it and agreed.

He just wanted to hear what Zhao Xiling had to say before making any plans.

After the five people entered the secret room, the heavy door slowly closed with a dull sound.

The moment the door closed, the sunlight was completely blocked out, and the secret room fell into darkness. At the same time, the sounds from outside were also isolated, and the entire secret room seemed to have become an independent space isolated from the world.

Everyone slowly sat down on the chairs, and then all looked at Zhao Xiling, their eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.

This is exactly the effect Zhao Xiling wants.

As long as everyone pays attention to her and is willing to work under her orders, these people will sooner or later become her subordinates.

Immediately, Zhao Xiling said:

"This is a royal secret and should not be disclosed to the public."

"But the few present here are all people I admire."

"I am willing to share this secret, and I hope everyone will remember me."

"Those who have no objection may stay and listen. Those who do not wish to remember this favor may leave."

Naturally, no one present would leave.

When they reach this level, they basically know one earth-level martial art.

At the same time, it is basically difficult for them to make further progress in their realm.

If you want to continue to improve, you must either condense your martial arts or obtain more advanced Tianji martial arts.

But martial will is something so mysterious. What kind of person can condense it? What method can be used to condense it? These questions have no clear answers.

Even those who have already condensed the martial spirit mostly do not understand the real reason why they condensed the martial spirit.

In the end, it can only be attributed to talent and understanding.

But martial arts secrets are different. They are real things. As long as they get them, everyone will believe that they can practice them.

After all, warriors who can reach the third level are all rare geniuses in the world!
Even if it is a heaven-level martial art, they are confident that they can master it!

Zhao Xiling continued:

"I wonder if you have ever heard of a place called Dragon Burial Ridge?"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked and their faces were full of surprise.

Even Jiang Duanchao couldn't help but ask:

"Let me ask you a question."

"Your Highness, the Princess is talking about... Jinzhou Dragon Burial Ridge?"

Zhao Xiling nodded.

Now, everyone's expressions became more solemn, as if shrouded in a heavy haze.

The people present were well-traveled and knowledgeable. From their heavy expressions, one could tell that they all knew this place.

But Liang Jin didn't know.

After he came to this world, his original body was on duty in the palace all day and had no time to travel around. The other clones also had their own areas of activity and there was really no chance for them to travel around.

So he didn't know much about the geography of this world.

Especially when Liang Jin saw the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, he knew that the place was definitely not a simple one.

"I never heard."

Liang Jin spoke directly and clearly.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned around and looked at Liang Jin with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Zhao Xiling glanced at Canxin.

Canxin understood immediately and explained to Liang Jin:

"The land of Jinzhou is filled with towering mountains and dense forests, and is inhabited by countless wild beasts and poisonous insects."

"Among those 100,000 mountains, some areas are already restricted areas where people cannot easily set foot."

"Dragon Burial Ridge is one of them. The trees there never shed their leaves, wild geese can't reach it, and there's a poisonous miasma all year round. Once you go there, there's no return."

This explanation is very simple and clear.

Canxin is a cold-hearted person who likes to be concise and unwilling to say more.

After listening to this, Liang Jin only had a general understanding of Zanglong Ridge.

But he knew the place called Jinzhou.

Jinzhou is located northwest of Qingzhou, with most of its area on the border of Daqian and a small part in the heart of Daqian.

If you go north from Qingzhou to the capital, you will need to go through Jinzhou.

Thinking of this, Liang Jin's heart suddenly moved.

"and many more!"

He seemed to have seen this place name!
Immediately, Liang Jin hurriedly opened the panel of the [Thousand Mile Tracking] feature to check.

When he saw this, he couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise in his eyes.

Dragon Burial Ridge, this place his original body had just checked out a while ago.

Because... Zanglong Ridge is where the young eunuch Zhao Bao is now!
