The middle-aged man was just a peak Luotian Immortal. Faced with the pressure of Duan Lingtian's Immortal King level, he was like a lonely boat on the cusp of the storm, with the possibility of capsizing at any time.
"Run your cultivation techniques and break through the bottleneck!"
It wasn't until Duan Lingtian's voice came that the middle-aged man's originally vague consciousness became somewhat clearer.
Relying on this few moments of clarity, the middle-aged man secretly took a deep breath, then his thoughts became clear and he began to run his own cultivation techniques.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered from all directions and poured into his body, turning small Zhoutians, and the small Zhoutians converged into large Zhoutians.
After about a dozen breaths.
call!
As if a gust of wind blew by, Duan Lingtian withdrew his consciousness in a thought, and at the same time glanced at the middle-aged man lightly.
Wow!
At the same time, a vast and majestic aura spread out from the middle-aged man's body. At the same time, the middle-aged man also opened his closed eyes, and a light flashed in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man's temperament has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before.
Now, as he stood there, the aura exuding from his body seemed to be similar to that of the short middle-aged man who died in Duan Lingtian's hands before.
The moment the middle-aged man opened his eyes, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
"Congratulations."
"You must have been waiting for this day for a long time, right?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the middle-aged man calmly and asked calmly.
"Thank you for your help, sir!"
After hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the middle-aged man knelt down in the void, leaning down towards Duan Lingtian, "From now on, my life, Liu Guanglin's, belongs to you!"
"As long as you are willing to let me follow you, I, Liu Guanglin, am willing to be your slave, loyal to you, and never rebel forever!"
He, Liu Guanglin, has been able to break through to the peak level of Luo Tianxian for many years, but has not been able to break through.
It's not that his talent is poor, but that there are no monarch-level skills for him to practice.
Unless one has extraordinary talent, it is extremely difficult to break through and become an Immortal Lord with skills below the level of a Lord.
Just like the eldest brother he followed before, the short middle-aged man who died in the hands of the young man in purple in front of him, stayed at the peak Luotian Immortal level for a thousand years before he was able to successfully break through.
Although his talent is far stronger than that of his opponent, it will take at least hundreds of years to break through.
He didn't expect that decades later, he would be so lucky to get the help of a strong man and complete the Immortal Lord's breakthrough ahead of schedule!
"The momentum just now...even the Immortal Lord of the Ten Directions may not be able to achieve it, right?"
Although Liu Guanglin's cultivation level was not high, he happened to see the world once again by chance.
He still remembered that it was at the Alchemy Conference held by the top sects in the six southeastern regions nearly a hundred years ago.
At that time, he was just there to join in the fun.
However, it happened that the ancestor of Huanxi Zen Sect, Li Ping, the Immortal Lord of the Ten Directions, took action. At that time, Li Ping's momentum swept across all directions, and it also affected him.
However, Li Ping's momentum at that time was far inferior to the previous momentum displayed by the young man in purple in front of him.
"I will never rebel?"
Hearing Liu Guanglin's words, Duan Lingtian smiled again, "Aren't you now betraying your nine previous companions?"
"grown ups."
Liu Guanglin said sternly: "Of my nine companions, I owe my life to the boss. The rest of us cooperate and take advantage of each other."
"If I hadn't remembered the life-saving grace of the boss back then, I would have left earlier... I believe that with your kindness, sir, you would not kill me, a person who has not offended you, sir, nor this young lady."
After talking about it, Liu Guanglin and Duan Lingtian looked at each other, with wisdom shining in their eyes.
"Even if he is the boss, there is no master-servant or allegiance relationship between me and him... Today, I, Liu Guanglin, serve as my master and will never rebel!"
"There is no thunder-punishment oath in the heavenly plane like there is in the secular plane... But, I, Liu Guanglin, am willing to cut off one of my arms to clarify my ambition!"
The moment Liu Guanglin finished speaking, he raised his right hand again, and the sword flashed, swinging down towards the shoulder of his left arm.
In the plane of the heavens, it is far more difficult to be reborn after a broken arm than in the earthly plane.
In the secular plane, there are some rare medicinal materials called "immortal grass" that can make people in the secular plane regenerate after their broken arms. That is because the bodies of people in the secular plane are only mortal bodies.
As for people from the secular plane, once they ascend to the plane of the heavens, they will experience the baptism of the Immortal Pool. After the baptism, their bodies will transform from mortal to immortal.
Once the immortal body is damaged and you want to be reborn, no matter how much so-called immortal grass you take from the secular plane, it will have no effect.
Only by finding some rare and rare medicinal materials or some rare elixirs in the plane of the heavens can it be possible to regenerate the broken body.
Buzz!
The sword was shining brightly, and it was about to cut off Liu Guanglin's left arm.
call! call! call!
…
Just when the sword light was only a short distance away from Liu Guanglin's left arm, gusts of breeze blew by, carrying with it waves of majestic and vast power.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Guanglin's dazzling sword light instantly fell apart and disappeared into the void, as if it had never appeared before.
"I believe you."
The person who took action was none other than Duan Lingtian.
After two lifetimes, he still had a good eye for people, and he could see that Liu Guanglin was a man who repaid his kindness and kept his word.
The Liu Guanglin in front of him was unwilling to leave before. Even though he knew he would die, he was still willing to live and die with his eight companions and share hardships, which made him quite fond of him.
In addition, Liu Guanglin never blasphemed Huan'er from beginning to end, so Duan Lingtian had no intention of killing him.
On the contrary, when his spiritual consciousness extended and he discovered that Liu Guanglin's cultivation level was only one chance away from that of the Immortal Lord, he had the intention of taking Liu Guanglin for his own use.
It was a long way to the central land. Huan'er was leading the way, but the speed was slow, and from time to time he would be blocked and robbed by some blind immortals.
If an Immortal Lord were to lead the way, not only in the central place but also in the border place, it would save a lot of effort.
"From now on, just stay with me."
Duan Lingtian said lightly: "My name is Duan Lingtian... As for the person next to me, you can call her Miss Huan'er, she is my sister."
"Thank you, sir."
After being stopped by Duan Lingtian, Liu Guanglin thanked Duan Lingtian repeatedly and saluted Huan'er next to Duan Lingtian respectfully, "Liu Guanglin, I have met Miss Huan'er."
However, Huan'er now has no time to pay attention to Liu Guanglin.
What Duan Lingtian said to Liu Guanglin kept echoing in her ears...
"younger sister?"
"So...he has always just regarded me as his sister?"
Although Huan'er had long known that Duan Lingtian deliberately avoided her feelings, and also knew that Duan Lingtian treated her like a biological sister, she still felt panicked when she heard Duan Lingtian say this at this moment.
"Sir, where are you and Miss Huan'er going?"
Liu Guanglin looked at Duan Lingtian and asked respectfully.
"We are preparing to leave the border land and go to the central land... Since you plan to follow me, you will lead us along the way."
Duan Lingtian said.
"Yes, sir."
Liu Guanglin respectfully accepted the order. At the same time, he only thought that Duan Lingtian was so powerful, but he did not personally lead the way. In all likelihood, it was because he wanted to practice or comprehend immortal magic, supernatural powers or something.
Just like that, there was one more person in Duan Lingtian's group.
"Sir, you...should be a powerful Immortal King, right?"
When he first set out, seeing that Duan Lingtian had no plans to practice or comprehend immortal magic or supernatural powers for the time being, Liu Guanglin couldn't help but ask curiously.
"It is."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"It is?"
Liu Guanglin looked confused and didn't understand what Duan Lingtian meant.
"Do you know about the consumable imperial artifact?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Consumable imperial artifact?"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Liu Guanglin was shocked, and then quickly responded: "Sir, I have heard of that kind of immortal weapon... It is said that that kind of immortal weapon, even if it is compared to the ordinary emperor-grade immortal weapon, is even rarer. !”
"However, once you obtain those kinds of fairy weapons, you can gain powerful power by consuming them... Moreover, you can use the powerful power given by those kinds of fairy weapons without any side effects."
Speaking of this, Liu Guanglin had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Duan Lingtian with shock and disbelief, "Sir, you suddenly mentioned this at this time..."
"Is it possible that you..."
Liu Guanglin's eyes were full of horror.
"yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded and said very calmly: "My current strength comes from a consumable imperial artifact... Before I help you, the power given to me by that immortal artifact consumed a lot, but It is still comparable to the Five Elements Immortal King."
"However, after helping you break through and become an Immortal King just now, my strength is only comparable to the 'Four Elephants Immortal King'."
"And the reason why I didn't take Huan'er on my way myself was because I didn't want to consume too much of the power given by the fairy weapon... Now, let you take us on our way, the same thing."
Having said this, Duan Lingtian looked at Liu Guanglin and added, "My real strength is weaker than Huan'er. I am just a small Mysterious Realm Luotian Immortal... Although I am about to break through, even if I break through, It’s just the Immortal of Luo Tian in the Earth Realm.”
It is also because Duan Lingtian's thoughts some time ago were spent on understanding the immortal arts, magical powers, and the method of alchemy. Otherwise, he would have successfully broken through to the level of the Earth Realm Luotian Celestial Immortal.
"Now, I'll give you a chance... you can leave, and I'll pretend I didn't hear the promise you just made."
After talking about it, Duan Lingtian looked at Liu Guanglin calmly.
Liu Guanglin took a deep breath and recovered from the shock. He immediately looked at Duan Lingtian and said with a straight face, "Sir, I am willing to continue to follow you."
