Chapter 867 Absolutely Reluctant
So many resources, if he got his hands on all of them, his power would definitely increase greatly!
"It's just that, with so many resources, I probably couldn't bear it, I have to wait until I have broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm before I can even attempt to absorb those resources," Lin Yi muttered to himself, as he was far from being able to control so many resources yet.
Lin Yi also knew that achieving this step would be extremely difficult.
But Lin Yi was absolutely unwilling to spend his life in mediocrity!
"No matter what, I must strive to break through! I must become the Martial Sovereign of the Myriad Demon Valley!" A hint of madness showed in Lin Yi's eyes!
This was an ambition, a pursuit for the future, a desire to become a Martial King!
Lin Yi knew that only by becoming an elder or a direct disciple of the Myriad Demon Valley would he possibly be able to advance at the Martial King level!
Lin Yi knew that the Martial King was a mountain that needed to be climbed, that required bravery!
He had to have enough courage to be able to climb that mountain!
And now, he had already traversed two mountains, yet he had only walked half of the journey.
Thus, he still had a long road ahead of him.
...
A month later.
Lin Yi's figure silently appeared in the valley.
The valley, still like a barren mountain, was silent all around.
Only Lin Yi, with light steps, slowly walked towards the center of the valley.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a faint sound caught Lin Yi's attention.
Lin Yi turned his head towards the direction of the sound.
"Is it a spirit beast?"
Lin Yi frowned slightly, thinking to himself.
For, he discovered that there was a person standing in the middle of the valley!
It was a young man in a green gown, handsome in appearance, with the air of a graceful young master, looking rather debonair.
"Eh, is that a spirit monkey?" Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
His figure also instantly shot forth, landing beside the man in green.
"What are you doing here?" the man in green glanced at Lin Yi, asking coldly.
Lin Yi smiled and said, "I am Lin Yi, the elder brother of Lin Xuan!"
"What!? You are Lin Xuan's brother?" the man in green was suddenly stunned.
Lin Xuan's brother?
Hearing the man in green's words, Lin Yi's expression couldn't help but brighten.
Because he knew Lin Xuan's nature, which was very similar to his own.
Lin Xuan was also somewhat solitary and had a violent temper. Anyone who offended him, he would definitely not leave alive!
And his brother Lin Xuan, had a temperament even more like his.
The two of them were both cold and solitary!
Lin Yi knew that his brother and Lin Xuan had similar personalities, but there was one difference.
His brother was not alone.
Whereas Lin Xuan's solitude had been nurtured from a young age.
Lin Yi looked at the young man in the green gown, a trace of coldness flashing through his eyes.
Lin Yi, although Lin Xuan's elder brother, was a ruthless person.
This man in the green gown had dared to rebuke Lin Xuan in such a manner, which made Lin Yi very angry.
Moreover, it was clear that the man in the green gown did not pay any respect to Lin Yi.
His gaze didn't even treat Lin Yi as a person!
"Lin Xuan, your brother? Hmph, that kid Lin Xuan doesn't even qualify to be my master!"
The man in green chuckled coldly.
He naturally knew that among the disciples of the Myriad Demon Palace, only Lin Xuan was regarded by Lin Yi as his master; he was not at all surprised.
Lin Yi snorted coldly, "Although Lin Xuan might not qualify to be your master, I can!"
Lin Yi sneered, "I am now a Martial Venerable of the Myriad Demon Palace!"
"Haha!" Hearing Lin Yi's words, the man in green scoffed in disdain, "Martial Venerable? Haha! Do you even qualify to be called a Martial Venerable of the Myriad Demon Palace?"
"Now, I am a Martial Monarch! You, still have a long way to go!"
The man in green, his face full of mockery.
Lin Yi, although a disciple of the Myriad Demon Palace, had practiced cultivation for too short a time. His foundation was unstable, so his strength had barely entered the Innate Realm.
Therefore, the man in the blue shirt looked down upon him with such disdain.
Upon hearing these words, Lin Yi was also taken aback.
He had not expected that his cultivation had already reached the level of a Martial Monarch!
Although it was only the early stage of Martial Monarch, the speed of his progress was extremely terrifying!
Such cultivation, placed within the sacred lands, was definitely top-tier!
However, among Martial Kings, it was just an ordinary existence!
Lin Yi could already be considered a top-tier powerhouse within the sacred lands.
"Martial Monarch? Haha! What a huge joke!" the man in the blue shirt scoffed coldly, before suddenly swinging his arms.
A fierce wind blew out abruptly, heading straight for Lin Yi like a whirlwind.
The wind, sharp as a blade, sliced through the air.
In that moment, Lin Yi's clothes were instantly shredded!
Yet, Lin Yi was not at all panicked. His sword, in his hand, came out of its sheath in an instant, striking at the raging wind.
Sizzle!
The wind was severed by Lin Yi's sword.
At the same time, the sword light also struck the body of the man in the blue shirt.
"Puff!"
The chest of the man in the blue shirt was pierced by the sword, and blood spurted out!
"What!?"
Seeing that his own sword had actually injured the man in the blue shirt, Lin Yi was also shocked.
Because the man in the blue shirt was a true Martial Monarch, yet he had been severely wounded by Lin Yi's sword!
Lin Yi's face suddenly turned ugly.
This was an embarrassing situation for him.
The man in the blue shirt was a Martial Venerable!
In the Myriad Demon Mountain Range, he was a top-tier powerhouse.
But now, he had been pierced through the heart by Lin Yi's sword!
This was an immense irony!
Lin Yi felt as if all his strength had been drained from him.
"How about that, defeated by me, huh?" The man in the blue shirt looked at Lin Yi and mocked.
"You, you…" Lin Yi pointed at the man in the blue shirt, so angry he could hardly speak.
"Hmph!"
The man in the blue shirt snorted coldly, then turned and left.
"You just wait!"
"If you don't die, I swear I'll take your head!" Lin Yi shouted angrily, clenching his fists.
But the man in the blue shirt paid him no heed and walked straight ahead, disappearing from sight.
Lin Yi took a deep breath and glanced at the sky-reaching tree in front of him, then turned and walked outside.
His target was the Sky-reaching Ancient Tree!
Lin Yi had seen that there was a token on the trunk of the Sky-reaching Ancient Tree, engraved with a red flower.
It was Lin Xuan's token.
Lin Yi wanted to take back this token!
Lin Yi was Lin Xuan's elder brother!
How could he stand by idly at such a crucial moment?
"The trunk of this Sky-reaching Ancient Tree contains a strand of Innate True Yuan, and, in the center of the trunk, there is a Treasure Pill embedded!" Lin Yi looked at the trunk of the Sky-reaching Ancient Tree, his face showing a hint of joy.
Because the Treasure Pill in the middle of the trunk was an Innate Elixir!
Innate Elixirs were divided into six grades.
Each grade had different effects!
Moreover, the efficacy of each grade varied.
Lin Yi's Innate Pill was a type of elixir that enhanced one's realm, capable of helping a person break through to the realm of Martial Venerable within three months!
