C356 The Xie Family's Old Man
C356 The Xie Family's Old Man
After listening to Xie Yucen's words, Lin Yun was surprised. He didn't expect that Xie Yucen's background was not simple.
He knew about the Royal Families, which were the families of Inheritance Pool. There were actually 36 families in Great Xia. It could be said that they were very powerful. No wonder the Great Xia was able to stand tall in the center of the Eastern Continent. It was inseparable from these powerful families.
However, there was a very serious hidden danger behind the prosperity of the Great Xia. It was because these families were too hard to control, and the territory of the Great Xia was vast and boundless. Many of the provinces and counties were isolated from the outside world, making it even harder for the Great Xia to be fully controlled.
Therefore, it had led to the rise of the feudal vassals. It could be said that this was not only because of the Luo family. At most, it was just a fuse. The root cause of all the chaos and chaos was still the complicated problem of the forces within the territory.
Just think about it, there were 36 royal families, plus the huge sects within the Great Xia, as well as other large and small families, and some slightly weaker sects. How many forces were there in the Great Xia?!
Just thinking about it made Lin Yun shiver. He felt that the water here was much more muddy than in Loongteng Empire.
Due to the slow flow of time, the lifespan of the people here was much longer than in Loongteng Empire. This led to the fact that any family or power would have a senior guarding the place. The Immortal Soul Shangguan Family was the best example.
One. A small border city and such a small family, they actually had dozens of Venerables and countless of five elements. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
Perhaps to Lin Yun, even if he didn't achieve the Dao, he wouldn't be able to pose a threat to him. But to an ordinary person, Five Elements King Stage was already considered an extreme expert. Liu He Zun was a wealthy family that was in charge of a region. After all, the shackles of his cultivation talent were too great. Without talent, there was almost no pressure that could push one to the heavens if one wanted to attain the Dao. Regarding this point, Lin Yun had a deep understanding.
If it wasn't for the appearance of the reformation system, his Lin family and Lin Yun wouldn't have become what they were today. In the past, the strongest person in the Lin family was only a Five Elements King Stage, but now, he even had a Spirit Saint, which made him extremely powerful.
Although there was a huge limit to the cultivation of the soul, once one reached the Sovereign realm, they would be able to sweep away all the other Origin Qi Practitioners, especially the Ghost Cultivator.
This was because the spiritual energy of a cultivator had the characteristics of evolution. After evolving into the Dao energy of an Emperor, the spiritual energy would be given the attribute of Dao, and the destructive force would be extremely terrifying. A casual strike would be the power of Dao.
Therefore, the golden age of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors appeared in the history of cultivators. Even after being defeated by the great war in the outer realms and the inheritance was broken, they could still stand in the Celestial Spirit Continent. This was the charm of spirit cultivators.
However, before the Desolate Emperor, spirit cultivators were weaker than other origin cultivators. Because the nature of a spirit was peaceful and neutral, it did not have any special abilities. Unless all of them evolved into the power of the Azure Spirit. But the Azure Spirit was the advanced form of spirit energy. It was recorded that only Great Emperor Xuanyuan had succeeded before. Other than that, no one had ever heard of anyone completing this magnificent feat.
Hence, the Azure Spirit Power also became a legend. Apart from those few strands of Azure Spirit that were obtained in the Rebirth Realm, the Spirit Beings did not have the chance to obtain it in its lifetime.
Furthermore, the Azure Spirit that was obtained was used less and less each time. Many people even used it muddle-headedly in order to escape. This had to be said to be the sorrow of a cultivator.
However, although the Azure Spirit was powerful, it was also not the ultimate form of spirit energy. Legend had it that the ultimate form of spirit energy was the ultimate spirit, a kind of strong power of the Dao. Strong power that surpassed all things in the world, up until now, no one had ever achieved it before. Not even the Celestial Thearch has ever touched it.
Some people once said that the supreme spirit did not belong to the mortal world. It came from above the nine heavens, in the scorching sun. Of course, there was no way to verify the authenticity of these words, but there was also some truth to it.
As Lin Yun walked, he thought of all these things. When he arrived at the Xie family's mansion, he came back to his senses.
What entered his eyes was an ancient mansion. The layout of the mansion was pleasing to the eye, and it was very comfortable.
Under Xie Yucen's lead, he arrived at a large courtyard. When he stepped into the courtyard, an old man with white hair playing chess in the courtyard attracted Lin Yun's attention.
This old man stroked his beard and always had a faint smile on his face. He looked ordinary and ordinary, but Lin Yun's eyelids twitched and his heart palpitated.
He secretly exclaimed. This old man actually gave him the feeling that he was facing Chiang Zishan. It was truly terrifying.
He had never thought that this tiny Xie family would have such a peerless expert. This made him give up the idea of looking down on him.
He sighed in his heart, "It seems like the Great Xia really has a deep pool of water! This tiny Xie family actually had an expert as strong as Chiang Zishan. Wouldn't the Luo family and the other top families who rebelled be even more terrifying? "
As he said this in his heart, Lin Yun felt a chill run down his spine. He secretly rejoiced in his heart.
If such an expert had emerged from the imperial family when he wreaked havoc in the palace of Great Xia, given his current strength, he would have died on the spot.
It seemed like no family or sect with history could be underestimated!
As he thought to himself, Lin Yun could not help but raise his vigilance. These old monsters had lived for an unknown period of time. Although he was very confident, he would not blindly become invincible under the heavens.
It was true that his body wouldn't die, but it wasn't absolute. Under the extremely powerful impact, he was also in danger of dying. Just like the battle in Poison Sect, he almost died.
Now, if he was asked to repeat the process of survival in the midst of death, he wouldn't have any confidence.
Moreover, the energy used by a cultivator was single. After the explosion, it was impossible for elemental energy to appear. Hence, if it was the Spirit Beings that attacked him that day, he was afraid that he would not be able to survive.
This had to be said, he was lucky!
Thinking of this, Lin Yun tensed up and followed behind Xie Yucen. He slowly walked past the white-haired old man.
At that moment, he clearly felt the old man's white hair tremble for no reason, and it shocked him so much that he almost retaliated.
"Cen'er! Where did you go?" The old man's aged voice suddenly sounded, causing Lin Yun to calm down for no reason.
Hearing this, Xie Yucen, who was leading the way, turned around agilely and said in surprise, "Ancestor! You actually spoke while playing chess?"
"Hahaha... With the arrival of an esteemed guest, if my old man still doesn't speak, wouldn't he become arrogant and rude, and neglect an esteemed guest?" As he spoke, the old man stroked his beard and slowly stood up.
He faced Lin Yun directly, and his eyes sparkled with a profound light. His face, which should have been aged, was actually flushed and full of vigor.
He looked at Lin Yun for a moment, then slowly said, "May I ask your name, little brother?"
Seeing how polite he was, Lin Yun returned the salute and said, "Junior Lin Yun greets senior!"
"Oh? You are the young man who was wanted by the Dao Poison Sect and made the two sects go crazy?" The old man revealed a surprised expression.
Hearing this, Lin Yun was neither servile nor overbearing as he calmly replied, "It is true that I am merely a lowly one!"
"Hahaha... They have a bounty of 500 million gold to buy your head! And the price is still soaring! "
" Oh? Senior means..." Lin Yun suddenly became nervous. A trace of purple light appeared in his pitch-black eyes. He was ready to escape.
As if he could see through his nervousness, the old man laughed once again. "Hahaha... Don't be nervous. I don't have that thought in mind. Besides, the Tao Sect and the Xie family have never interfered with each other's business. I don't need to work for them for a mere gold! Most importantly, I'm afraid I can't catch you... "
Upon hearing this, Lin Yun cupped his fists and looked at the warm and smiling old man. "Senior is truly an expert. Junior admires you!"
" Hahaha... How am I an expert? I am a person who is about to be buried!" He waved his hand. Although his tone was modest, his expression was somewhat arrogant.
Following which, he instructed Xie Yucen who had not spoken all this while, "Cen'er, how can you bring such a distinguished guest here?! This little brother should be living in Great Harmony Hall!"
"Old Ancestor... This... I..."
"What about me! Why aren't you taking Little Brother to rest!?"
"Yes, Cen'er understands!" Xie Yucen cutely stuck out her tongue, turned around and was about to leave.
At this time, Lin Yun stopped her and pretended to be apologetic as he said, "It is still not enough. Junior has important matters to attend to, so I will not be staying for long! Miss Xie, you should take me to the transmission array as usual!"
"Uh... this..."
"What's going on? "
