Even though his cultivation level has fallen, he is covered in wounds, and he is already very old.
The sharp edge of a young man remains undiminished.
They naturally pinned their hopes on such a powerful figure to help them dismantle the "Immortal Ancient God Formation"!
Having survived that devastating battle, no aging, powerful survivor would want to see any more unpredictable changes.
They are also one of the driving forces behind the dismantling movement.
"My uncle has never had such a good temper; everyone knows how domineering he is."
"In this matter, they've chosen to remain silent and simply watch that ancient faction grow stronger...?"
"Perhaps, the power of this Demon Spear Lin Ye has reached a level that even my uncle, who was once a Mahayana stage cultivator, would be amazed by."
The congressman looked helpless and said in a low voice, "I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems... sigh!"
"Oh?" The other person was slightly taken aback.
"But those are Mahayana stage cultivators! Even in the ancient cultivation era, they weren't nearly as numerous as the Star Alliance nine hundred years ago!"
"Just who is Lin Ye? Does he command such respect from my uncle...?"
The other person's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "It's alright, the other ancient beings will definitely make their moves."
"Besides, this time they say it's being fed to the Demon Spear, but who would think it can actually eat it? It's just going to be destroyed anyway."
"Moreover, this matter can also be manipulated in terms of public opinion."
"That makes sense. We can't let him benefit too easily!"
......
Driven by several councilors, news that Lin Ye, an ancient person, had come into contact with the flesh and blood of the primordial giant began to spread rapidly.
Initially, the news carried a hint of panic as it spread.
But soon, the internet cleanup forces successfully rectified the situation, and it's unclear who was secretly helping Lin Ye.
......
Inside the isolation ward.
Lin Ye is exploring the various properties of the miniature world.
"Lin Ye".
Chu Lian'er's illusory image projected a communication message onto the screen, saying, "Mad Sword wants to talk to you."
"The Mad Sword God of War?" Lin Ye readily nodded.
"You obtained the flesh and blood of the Primal Giant?" A cheerful voice came from the other end of the communication.
Lin Ye couldn't help but think that there were quite a few people who paid attention to the flesh and blood of the Primordial Giant God. Even a busy person like the Mad Sword Martial God, who was training in the secret realm every day, had made a special trip to contact him.
"Yes."
Many thoughts raced through Lin Ye's mind before he asked, "What advice do you have for me?"
"It's nothing. More than two hundred years ago, I participated in the mission to destroy the original flesh and blood. At that time, I was not strong enough and caused a great disaster."
Kuang Jian shook his head and sighed, "Although it was due to insufficient preparation, it was indeed my dereliction of duty."
"Lin Ye, you must handle this carefully, I'm begging you."
"Once this is done, if any problems arise in public opinion, you can blame it on me..."
“Revisiting old topics can still attract some criticism.”
Kuang Jian laughed and said, "Brother, even if there is a difference in era, it won't cause the outside world to have any prejudice against you."
Lin Ye nodded: "Thank you very much. I'll treat you to a meal later."
"Haha, okay, that's settled for now."
Mad Sword chuckled and hung up the call.
Lin Ye's eyes flickered slightly.
At this crucial moment in the struggle against Dark Star, Mad Sword should have placed even greater emphasis on his reputation.
But he didn't seem to care much; he was indeed a carefree person.
Or perhaps, it was his feeling that he was slightly superior to Dark Star in terms of strength.
Chu Lian'er also said that although Kuang Jian is not good at group combat, his individual combat ability is very strong.
In particular, his spiritual sense and physical body have both surpassed his own level of cultivation, making them terrifying even among geniuses.
"Lian'er, what are the results of the divination?"
Lin Ye glanced at Chu Lian'er.
She was using a fourth-grade spiritual artifact needle inserted into the miniature world through the leaves to inject a small amount of nano-metal from the [Formless Sword] in order to explore its internal properties.
Even for geniuses throughout history, it is extremely difficult to obtain a new world with chaotic attributes.
Its potential must be fully explored!
.......
After the gambling match ended.
Chief Engineer Ji made a quick escape from the scene.
He was panting heavily, because he didn't know if Gu Xiulinye would directly and ruthlessly kill him, so he chose to lay low for the time being.
Therefore, despite the setback, there was still a sense of relief, like surviving a disaster.
"Hahaha...I never imagined he would be even stronger than I thought."
Chief Engineer Ji spread his arms and lay on the ground, saying, "The obstacles are stronger than I imagined... but I don't want to give up, Master."
"I must defeat Chu Lian'er!"
The remnant soul within the silver dagger hesitated for a moment, then said earnestly, "Why are you so persistent..."
"To avenge my other mentor."
"Also because of... jealousy."
Chief Engineer Ji took a deep breath, his eyes reddening, and said, "After seeing such a work, no weapon refiner wouldn't be jealous of her talent!"
"But you shouldn't repeat the same mistake."
Chief Engineer Ji clenched his fists slightly and said, "Master, I want to try one last time."
"I left a challenge letter for Chu Lian'er... next year, as a fourth-grade weapon refiner."
"I will break through to the Nascent Soul stage before that!"
"Whether it's the Demon Gun or anyone else, she can choose whoever she wants as her partner. I will face both of them alone and decide the winner solely through weapon crafting."
Chief Engineer Ji's gaze gradually hardened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "I will vindicate the ancient art of weapon crafting!"
The silver dagger fell silent, unwilling to offer any further advice.
In his opinion, his disciple was quick-witted and had a constant stream of inspiration, perhaps more suited to modern weapon crafting techniques.
If it weren't for the oppression of the giant god, which brought too much pressure to the cultivators of this era, his path forward would have been much freer.
'Perhaps my presence is holding him back...?'
'If I lose this duel again, I might as well throw that demonic spear at him!'
'This person looks like he has a bright future...'
The remnant soul within the silver dagger gradually became more active, yet hesitated: 'But given the era he lived in, he must possess many insidious methods... I don't want to bring about my own demise. I'd better reconsider!'
......
Meanwhile, in the Dark Ages.
Fengfeng!
The longsword stopped, hovering half an inch in front of Long Yin's neck.
Kun Zhengqing breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed, "This kid is amazing!"
"You actually forced me to use my Nascent Soul stage cultivation, you win!"
Long Yin clasped his hands and smiled, "If Uncle were soaring in the sky, I would be helpless."
"Haha, modest lad."
A cheer erupted from below the stage.
The prodigies from all the major powers couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed.
The experts under Prince Lin Ye's command are truly fierce. The two in front of us are outstanding among the younger generation!
People of this caliber, who can vaguely see the hope of ascension, are almost never easily subservient to outsiders, let alone fellow cultivators.
However, both of them held Lin Ye in high esteem, and Xiao Peng Wang was especially loyal.
And Long Yin is the heir of the Demon Emperor's crown prince...
They actually risked public outrage by coming to seek refuge with the Fifteenth Prince, Lin Ye!
As Lin Ye's competition preparations progressed, the popularity of the Demon Subduing Workshop increased day by day.
This is a rare grand event amidst the bloodshed, attracting positive responses from all sides!
In reality, the Spirit-Slaying Array, which was forcibly sold upon entering the venue, was something that many forces could only dream of.
But the imperial palace just happens to have a lot of array masters and talisman masters.
This is a good time to clear out inventory.
It's only in the initial stages of preparation, but the Demon Subduing Workshop is already bustling with activity, and all the major powers in the Eastern Divine Continent have sent advance teams to be stationed there.
On the other side of Huangzhou, the year-on-year revenue has increased by 30%.
More importantly, Lin Ye needs top-quality spirit stones, and since the start of the event preparations, a total of 80 have already been collected.
To be honest, Lin Ye only had a total of 150 in stock before.
I really don't know how popular it will be when the competition officially starts.
Long Yin's gaze swept over the bustling Demon Subduing Workshop, his eyes filled with mixed emotions.
Although he didn't want to.
But deep down, he was gradually won over by Lin Ye's skillful methods.
With the bloodshed imminent, the only place that could be considered safe and prosperous was this Demon Subduing Workshop.
'Father... perhaps you shouldn't have gone against Uncle Fifteen.'
Long Yin gazed into the distance, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
......
Inside the isolation chamber, chains of binding spiritual energy rolled like thunder dragons soaring through the sky.
Chu Lian'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "Lin Ye, I have reached a preliminary conclusion."
"This miniature world harbors a fear of isolation from the outside world, yet at the same time craves its energy from it."
"Perhaps, it is the result of the remnant souls of the Star Alliance predecessors fighting against the instincts of the Titans."
"In other words, as long as forcing your way in doesn't cause damage, it's possible to interact with it by force."
Chu Lian'er said, "Perhaps you can try using your spiritual energy to exchange for a trace of chaotic energy, which might be useful to you."
Click!
Lin Ye took a bite of the radish-shaped rare herb and nodded.
The energy of chaos!
Although it is not the primordial chaos energy from the time when Pangu created the world, it is clearly not the same thing as ordinary spiritual energy.
I'll get my hands on it and study it; it might be very useful.
"Since it can interact with you, can you cultivate together with it?"
Lin Ye asked subconsciously.
