Chapter 126: Cai Xukun Attacks!

"Ancestor, I think I can also sense that kind of Original Force you spoke of?!"

Lin Bufan spoke in surprise; not only had his flesh and bones been nourished, but he had also actually sensed the Original Force the ancestor spoke of.

Hearing this, Lin Potian opened his eyes and looked over. Seeing that he could indeed sense the Original Force, he nodded slightly and said, "Although I do not wish to admit it, I am indeed of the bloodline of this Endless Divine Land. As my descendant, it is perfectly normal for you to be able to comprehend the Original Force. Just comprehend it well; the mysteries of this Original Force are truly infinite, and its strength can even rival Immortal Power!"

"Yes, Ancestor!"

Lin Bufan did not doubt him and hurriedly sat down to cultivate, his heart shocked. The strength of this Original Force could actually rival Immortal Power?

That was Immortal Power! He was currently only a Great Emperor, still very far from being a True Immortal. He had not expected to be able to absorb another type of force that was no less than Immortal Power ahead of time.

"Sigh, it is a pity I do not have the bloodline of this Endless Divine Land. I can only use this Original Force to temper my body, but I cannot retain a single bit of it."

Seeing this, Di Tian felt envious tears stream from the corners of his mouth.

After finishing his explanation to Lin Bufan, Lin Potian continued to close his eyes and focus. The amount of Original Force drifting in the air was exceptionally high. After all, this was the corpse of the Yuan An Zhi Shen, one of the Twelve Pillar Gods. After it had all voluntarily sacrificed itself, Lin Potian estimated it would take about ten days to finish absorbing it.

Moreover, because the strand of True Spirit of the Yuan An Zhi Shen had merged into Lin Potian's body, every wisp of drifting Original Force seemed to have received a summons, all surging toward him and flowing into his dantian!

"This Original Force follows a completely different path from Immortal Power. It follows the ultimate path of Word Manifestation, even capable of severing a Star Galaxy with a single thought, or breaking ten thousand laws with a single thought. Gods... no wonder they call themselves gods; they truly have their own unique aspects." Lin Potian sighed inwardly. Imagine two people facing off: one uses all their divine abilities, while the other stands with hands behind their back, resolving everything with just Word Manifestation. It truly has the composure of a god.

Lin Potian looked inward at himself again. At his dantian, a tiny vortex was gradually forming, like a newborn galaxy, slowly rotating and attracting more Original Force to join it, causing his aura to climb step by step. His body was surrounded by colorful radiance, like a phoenix in Nirvana!

"Furthermore, my Original Force has now surpassed the Immortal Power within my body. If converted, I fear it has already reached the strength of the early Immortal King Realm!"

Lin Potian felt a surge of joy. Just as he was preparing to wholeheartedly comprehend and absorb this Original Force, the Saint Emperor walked over and whispered to Lin Potian, "That God of Slaughter on the eighth floor of the Tongtian Tower is showing some unusual movement. I am going to suppress her; you be careful."

"Alright." Lin Potian responded softly and continued his cultivation, becoming even more absorbed.

…………

Time passed like a white horse galloping past a crevice; in the blink of an eye, ten days went by.

A huge, angry shout suddenly rang out from outside the cave:

"Huang Gou, Li Tie, where the hell did you two die?"

"Get out here!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Following the words, there was a continuous sound of divine ability strikes and footsteps!

Di Tian was the first to wake from his cultivation. He slapped his head and whispered, "Damn it, I forgot about that Cai Xukun business!"

He suddenly remembered that Lin Potian had previously said Cai Xukun would come to collect the Black Oil in three days. Now it had been ten days, and the two of them still hadn't left. He figured Cai Xukun couldn't wait any longer and had entered on his own!

Furthermore, Lin Potian had said that this Cai Xukun was equivalent to the Immortal King Realm, while he was only a Peak Great Emperor. Although his physical body had been greatly enhanced and could rival a True Immortal Artifact, this Cai Xukun was clearly stronger!

"We're done for, we're done for!"

Di Tian turned his head to look in Lin Potian's direction. The latter was completely immersed in cultivation and showed no signs of waking up. If he were to rashly wake him, he might suffer a cultivation deviation!

Di Tian turned his head to look at Lin Bufan. The latter had just finished his cultivation; hearing the sound of divine ability strikes, he immediately stood up in alert, assuming a fighting stance.

Seeing this, Di Tian shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I really am clutching at straws. He just became a Great Emperor, what use could he be? Though his courage is commendable."

Hearing this, Lin Bufan felt a bit indignant and said, "Senior Di Tian, don't look down on me. Although my realm hasn't broken through much, my strength has increased quite a bit. In the past, I couldn't even take one of your moves, but now..."

Di Tian looked expectant, "And now?"

"Now? I can at least take ten of your moves without dying, Senior!" Lin Bufan looked proud, one might even say he was beaming with joy.

Hearing this, Di Tian felt as if he had been struck on the head, his mouth twitching wildly, "Are you here to be funny?"

"Big brother, we are about to die! A powerhouse equivalent to an Immortal King is about to break down the door!"

Di Tian was irritable. At a time like this, this descendant of Lin Potian was still playing around with humor; he really didn't realize a great enemy was at the gates!

Step, step, step...

"Come out, I see you!"

"What happened to those miner corpses outside? Where is my Black Oil?"

Cai Xukun's footsteps outside the cave were getting closer and closer. Every step felt like it was treading on Di Tian's heartstrings, making him increasingly nervous. His angry voice shook the air, bringing endless pressure.

"Equivalent to an Immortal King?"

Lin Bufan was stunned. This was a realm above a True Immortal; the person outside was truly terrifying!

And now that the ancestor had not yet awakened, and that powerful Tower Spirit, the Saint Emperor, had drifted off to parts unknown, relying on just himself and Senior Di Tian, they were likely doomed!

"Don't panic, he is bluffing us. The position from which his voice is coming is at least several hundred steps away!" Di Tian whispered. Although he was anxious, he still stood in place, feigning composure.

Lin Bufan nodded and said nothing, his face solemn as he secretly calculated how to stall for time, waiting for the ancestor to wake from his cultivation.

And he must not let this intruder disturb the ancestor's cultivation!

Tap, tap, tap...

Outside, Cai Xukun's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Di Tian's eyes brightened slightly. In an instant, he looked through the stone wall and saw Cai Xukun's figure gradually appearing at the cave entrance. His pupils suddenly contracted. He couldn't help but turn his head and exchange a glance with Lin Bufan. Neither dared to communicate, fearing they would be heard, but their eyes clearly said...

We've been found!

"Heh, so you were hiding here. I give you five breaths to come out!"

Outside the cave, Cai Xukun's black robe fluttered in the wind. His expression was cold, his eyes flickering like cold stars, revealing killing intent. But for some reason, he did not want to enter rashly.

However, Di Tian and Lin Bufan did not know Cai Xukun's concerns; instead, they became even more nervous. They had really been found!

"Senior Di Tian, what do we do?"

Lin Bufan glanced at the ancestor, Lin Potian, who was still cultivating and showed no sign of waking, then tried his best to remain calm and asked via voice transmission.

Di Tian's expression was grave as he replied via voice transmission: "Wait a bit longer, stall for more time. When he counts to one, we will go out and fight for our lives to stall him!"

But at the cave entrance, Cai Xukun's countdown had already begun.

"Five!"

"Two point five!"

Hearing this, cold sweat poured down Lin Bufan. This guy actually counted five and then went straight to two point five?!

Is that how you give people time?

"It seems I cannot hold them off any longer..."

"Then I shall exhaust all my strength to protect you this one time!"

Di Tian's eyes sank, he took a deep look at Lin Potian, who was still cultivating, and stepped through the stone wall in a single stride!
