C1201 Refuse to Join the Holy Land
Yet, Ling Jian was actually able to do it.
The Nine Heavens Saintess also looked at Ling Jian. Although he did not speak, his eyes were filled with excitement.
After all, with the status of the Nine Heavens Saintess, Li Jiankun and the other two were nothing to him.
Although Li Jiankun and the other two were considered geniuses in the Stairway, they were only in the Earth Realm. In the entire Heaven Realm, there were countless genius cultivators like Li Jiankun, let alone the other three great realms.
However, there were very few genius cultivators like Ling Jian.
Although Ling Jian’s cultivation was not high, the strength that he was able to unleash far surpassed the limits of his cultivation.
Moreover, what made the Nine Heavens Saintess even more surprised was that she was unsure if Ling Jian had used all his strength earlier.
If this was not Ling Jian’s full strength, how powerful was he?
“How… How is this possible?”
At this moment, Heavenly King Li and the other two leaders looked at the Ascending Sky Podium. Their eyes were filled with unimaginable shock.
If not for what had happened today, they would never have thought that the geniuses of the three major powers would be so vulnerable.
“Not good, this kid has to hurry up and stop him. Otherwise, the geniuses of the three major powers will really die.”
At this moment, Heavenly King Li also spoke loudly.
He had clearly sensed Ling Jian’s motive. Ling Jian clearly didn’t intend to let the three geniuses of the three major powers go. He was planning to kill them all!
Moreover, as soon as Heavenly King Li’s voice fell, his figure had already rushed up to the sky above the Ascending Sky Podium.
At the same time, the other two leaders also flashed and appeared above the Ascending Sky Podium.
“Stop right there, kid.”
“Show mercy.”
“Show mercy when you can.”
The three leaders of the three major powers shouted at the same time.
They had appeared above the Ascending Sky Podium. Even though they didn’t unleash a powerful aura, the invisible aura they emitted made the young cultivators in the Ascending Sky Podium feel a great pressure.
Moreover, with the interference of the three major factions’ masters, the cultivators who were still at the back of the Ascending Sky Staircase all stopped at this moment. Some of the cultivators couldn’t help but take a few steps back, afraid that they would be affected by the impact.
Unfortunately, although the actions of the three major factions’ masters had given many cultivators a great shock, they didn’t care about it at all.
At this moment, he also looked at the three geniuses who hadn’t been killed by him. He also didn’t care about the three major factions’ masters. He acted as if he hadn’t heard their words. He flicked his finger, and an invisible force shot out from his finger and pierced through the three geniuses’ Saint Souls.
“Brat, how dare you!”
Ling Jian’s actions were also noticed by the three major factions’ masters.
The three major factions’ masters’ faces became ice-cold at this moment.
They had never thought that Ling Jian would be so bold as to ignore their words.
“Brat, didn’t I tell you to stop just now? How dare you ignore our words?”
“How dare you ignore our words? Are you tired of living?”
“How dare you kill the pride of my Primordial Chaos Valley! We will not let you off!”
At this moment, the three masters of the three major powers were emitting a strong killing intent.
If the three geniuses’ bodies were destroyed, they would be able to recreate their bodies with their resources in a short period of time.
However, the three geniuses’ bodies had been destroyed, and even the Saint Nascent’s shadow had been destroyed. They had no way to restore the three geniuses’ glory.
“They were going to attack me and kill me just now. Why didn’t you stand up for me? If you had stood up for me, I would have stopped what I was doing,” Ling Jian said calmly.
However, when he said this, his black and white pupils were calm.
Even when he was facing three late Saint Spirit Realm masters, he did not show any fear.
Moreover, when he heard Ling Jian’s words, the three masters of the three major powers’ faces twitched.
However, because of this, the three masters of the three major powers became furious when they heard Ling Jian’s words.
“Humph, how dare you! You little junior actually dared to speak to this old man in such a manner. Are you tired of living?” The face of the Giant Sea Sect’s sect leader was also dark and solemn. He spoke in a cold voice. Immediately, his finger was suddenly extended. That finger was like a giant pillar that held up the sky. It drew an incomparably large light pillar and viciously twisted towards Ling Jian.
Ling Jian’s face had also become incomparably icy cold at this moment. A sharp killing intent also erupted from his eyes.
This Giant Sea Sect’s sect leader was clearly seeking death.
Ling Jian’s eyes also turned cold. In the next moment, he was preparing to attack. However, at this moment…
Bang!
An invisible energy light wave shot out from the side. After which, it directly wrapped around the enormous light pillar and forcefully erased the killing force contained within the light pillar.
Seeing this, the Giant Sea Sect’s sect leader’s face also became ferocious. He hurriedly turned his head. After which, he saw the enormous figure of a peacock not far away. Granny Silver was maintaining the action of attacking earlier.
“Giant Sea Sect’s sect leader, you attacked in front of me without putting me in your eyes, right?”
At this moment, an icy cold voice was slowly transmitted from the Nine Heavens Saintess’ mouth without any emotion.
In the sky, when his attack was directly blocked by Granny Silver, the Giant Sea Sect’s sect leader became a little unnatural.
After hearing the words of the Nine Heavens Saintess, he cursed in his heart.
Although he was the master of the three major powers in the Earth Realm and had reached the late-stage Saint Spirit Realm, he was nothing in front of the Nine Heavens Saintess.
After all, although the Nine Heavens Saintess was only at the early-stage Saint Spirit Realm, she was the Saintess of the Nine Heavens Realm in the Heaven Realm. In comparison, his status was nothing.
“Saintess, what are you talking about? I definitely have you in my heart. How could I have that intention?”
The Giant Sea Sect Master quickly said. At the same time, he couldn’t help but cup his hands. He didn’t dare to be careless about the Nine Heavens Saintess.
“Is that so? Since you don’t dare to, why did you attack him?”
The Nine Heavens Saintess didn’t understand the Giant Sea Sect Master’s action. She looked at him and said coldly.
“What about the Saintess? I was too impulsive just now. I definitely have you in my heart.”
The Giant Sea Sect Master hurriedly said. At this moment, his heart broke out in a cold sweat. He even scolded Ling Jian in his heart.
It could be said that if it wasn’t for Ling Jian, he wouldn’t have spoken to the Nine Heavens Saintess like this.
“Hmph, I hope this is the last time. Otherwise, if there is a next time, I don’t mind making your entire Giant Sea Sect disappear from the Earth Realm, do you understand?”
The Nine Heavens Saintess said coldly.
Although her cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Saint Spirit Realm, her aura wasn’t any weaker than that of a cultivator at the late stage of the Saint Spirit Realm.
Moreover, as the Nine Heavens Saintess had thought, although the Giant Sea Sect was one of the three major powers in the Earth Realm, if he was willing, many cultivators would come down from the Heaven Realm and wipe out the Giant Sea Sect. It wasn’t impossible.
The Giant Sea Sect Master was also very clear about this. Therefore, he didn’t dare to show any hostility to Ling Jian during this process.
Moreover, at the same time, Heavenly King Li and the Valley Master of the Chaos Origin Valley were also very clear about this. Although the Nine Heavens Saintess had said this to the Giant Sea Sect Master earlier, they could still feel a killing intent from her words. It was obvious that her words were also effective on them.
“This little girl is not bad.”
The voice from the outside world spoke in his mind.
At this moment, Ling Jian also looked at the Nine Heavens Saintess. Although the Nine Heavens Saintess was covered in a thin white veil, it was impossible to see her face clearly. However, he could still see that the Nine Heavens Saintess’s exquisite figure was extremely outstanding.
Now that he heard the words from the Infinite Worlds, he nodded at the Nine Heavens Saintess.
Indeed, the Nine Heavens Saintess’ action earlier had given Ling Jian a good impression.
“Young Hero, what’s your name?”
At this moment, the Nine Heavens Saintess had also sensed Ling Jian’s gaze. She immediately asked Ling Jian.
His voice was very pleasant to listen to. It was as clear as a cuckoo’s chirp. When he said those words, his tone was extremely gentle.
“My name is Ling Jian,” Ling Jian said indifferently.
Even when facing a woman as outstanding as the Nine Heavens Saintess, he still maintained an unflustered attitude.
“Ling Jian, what a good name,” the Nine Heavens Saintess muttered to herself. She repeatedly muttered the names Ling Jian had given her before saying, “You reached the late Saint realm at the age of less than a hundred years. Your talent is indeed very good.”
Although Ling Jian’s cultivation was not very strong, judging from the combat strength he had displayed earlier, he was still very strong.
After all, there was still a gap between the mid-stage Saint realm, the late-stage Saint realm, and the peak-stage Saint realm. This was especially true when Ling Jian was not facing a peak-stage Saint realm cultivator earlier. He had managed to kill three people in one strike. There were very few people who could achieve this in the entire Heaven Realm.
“Thanks, but you’re not bad yourself.” Ling Jian nodded at the Nine Heavens Saintess. The Nine Heavens Saintess had reached the early-stage Saint Spirit Realm before she was a hundred years old. She was a genius.
After all, no one else in the entire realm could do this. She had reached the early-stage Life Realm before she was a hundred years old.
“I’m not bad myself?” The Nine Heavens Saintess murmured.
A strange expression appeared on his face.
Was this Ling Jian’s praise for her?
Moreover, this praise came from a young cultivator from the realm. Moreover, this cultivator was only at the late-stage Saint Spirit Realm.
“How dare you! How dare you be so rude to the Saintess!”
On the huge peacock, Sun Huang immediately shouted at Ling Jian after hearing this.
“Sun Huang.” The Nine Heavens Saintess recalled. She looked at Sun Huang and said coldly, “Don’t interfere with me without my order.”
“But, but the Saintess has already offended you.”
“Hmph, then why are you still saying that?”
Sun Huang immediately shut his mouth after hearing the Nine Heavens Saintess’s angry voice.
However, even though Sun Huang had already closed his mouth, his gaze became incomparably vicious when he looked at Ling Jian.
However, Ling Jian did not take Sun Huang’s vicious gaze to heart. Although Sun Huang’s cultivation was not bad, he was merely at the initial-stage of the Saint Spirit Realm. To Ling Jian, he was as weak as an ant.
“Ling Jian, do you only know about the Nine Heavens Sacred Grounds?” The Nine Heavens Saintess suddenly asked Ling Jian.
After hearing the Nine Heavens Saintess’s words, Ling Jian’s eyes flickered with a trace of brilliance.
Nine Heavens Sacred Grounds.
During the process of heading to the Heaven Realm, Ling Jian had already inquired about many things related to the Heaven Realm. He had also obtained the information from the Blood Sea Sect’s Sect Master, Blood Saint Ling.
There were four great powers in the Heaven Realm, and these four powers were divided into the Nine Heavens, Five Elements, Supreme, and Heavenly King Realms.
They were the Nine Heavens Realm, the Five Elements Realm, the Supreme Being Realm, and the Heavenly King Realm.
Moreover, the Nine Heavens Sacred Grounds was the most powerful cultivation holy land in the Nine Heavens Realm.
“Oh, could it be that you are a member of the Nine Heavens Sacred Grounds.” Ling Jian looked at the Nine Heavens Saintess and could not help but ask.
So that was the case. No wonder a cultivator at the late-stage of the Saint Spirit Realm like him was respectful to him.
After all, the Jiutian Holy Place was one of the four great forces. If the Jiutian Saintess came from the Jiutian Realm, it was normal for her to have the right to speak.
“That’s right. I come from the Jiutian Realm. I cultivate in the Jiutian Holy Place. My name is Kong Jiutian,” the Jiutian Saintess said. Then, she looked at Ling Jian and said, “By the way, Ling Jian, are you willing to follow me to the Jiutian Holy Place to cultivate?”
“Saintess.”
Sun Huang couldn’t help but change his expression as soon as the Jiutian Saintess said that.
Ling Jian hadn’t reached the top of the Sky Stairwell yet, but the Jiutian Saintess had already given him such a benefit.
“Sun Huang, shut up,” the Jiutian Saintess frowned. She looked very displeased.
Then, she looked at Ling Jian and said slowly, “The Jiutian Holy Place is one of the four great holy places of cultivation in the Heaven Realm. If you are willing, I can let you join the Jiutian Holy Place without taking the exam. You can cultivate in the Jiutian Holy Place from now on.”
Ling Jian heard the Jiutian Saintess clearly.
According to his original plan, he had planned to go to the Heaven Realm and join a great cultivation force. He knew very well that if he had a background, everything he did would be much easier. He wouldn’t lack resources for cultivation.
However, Ling Jian had no intention of joining the Holy Land to cultivate for the time being.
“I appreciate your good intentions, but I have other matters to attend to, so I can’t join the Holy Land to cultivate for the time being.”
Ling Jian spoke indifferently.
He didn’t feel that there was anything inappropriate about doing so.
If he hadn’t found out about the Heavenly Yuan Fruit, he might have chosen to agree to it. However, the first thing he had to do after entering the Heaven Realm was to obtain the Heavenly Yuan Fruit. That would be the greatest help to his own improvement.
After all, the age of the Heavenly Yuan Fruit was a hundred thousand years old. A Heavenly Yuan Fruit of a hundred thousand years old was a rare treasure even in the entire Holy Land.
