Chapter 140: The Mandate of Heaven is Mine, Heading to the Southern Profound Domain!

The next second, everyone saw this Domain Lord 'Lin Yan's' expression suddenly turn cold, and he barked at Lin Potian: "Although Yin Shisan is at fault, you also bear some responsibility for this matter. For openly defying the rules and using force here in the Prodigy Camp, your death penalty may be waived, but you cannot escape punishment!"

"Very well, I shall strike you with one palm as a penalty! However, you must attend the Eastern Profound Domain Grand Competition three days from now. You will have to fend for yourself then, and there is no need for you all to hold back just because he is someone I recommended. If I see anyone going easy on him, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Having said that, a terrifying palm strike was imprinted toward Lin Potian!

Bang!

Lin Potian was instantly sent flying far away, coughing up a mouthful of blood, and said weakly: "Many thanks to the Domain Lord for showing mercy, Lin Potian thanks you."

However, the corner of his mouth curled slightly; the Holy Emperor's performance was controlled to perfection. The momentum was extremely frightening, but it was truly all thunder and no rain, causing no real damage. The mouthful of blood was something he, Lin Potian, had shaken out himself!

Just right, now he had time to go with Zhong Lin to that opportunity and search for the fragments of the Heaven-Reaching Token!

If the remaining two-thirds of the Heaven-Reaching Token fragments were all found, Lin Potian believed that the Heaven-Reaching Token would certainly be more than just a tool for changing the flow of time and running away quickly!

Swish...!

Seeing Lin Potian sent flying until he was no longer visible, the prodigies turned to look at each other in dismay!

The Domain Lord's palm strike was no light matter; it was enough to kill a Divine Lord!

It was clearly a display of genuine anger. Could it be that this Lin Potian wasn't some super-connected individual after all?

But since the Domain Lord had already said so, they would simply not hold back when the time came. Besides, given the combat power Lin Potian had previously displayed, no one would dare to hold back anyway!

"Alright, this matter is concluded. Everyone, cultivate well and participate in the Eastern Profound Domain Grand Competition three days from now. The top ten will enter the final All-God Land Grand Competition. I hope you all will fight with the flair of our Eastern Profound Domain. If you can take the top three in the All-God Land, you can be crowned kings; if you can take the championship, you will be the first in line to be the next Domain Lord!"

After Lin Potian was sent flying, the Holy Emperor stood with his hands behind his back and spoke a few perfunctory words, nailing the demeanor perfectly. In any case, this Eastern Profound Domain wasn't his family property, so he didn't feel a shred of heartache!

"Yes, kill, kill, kill!"

The emotions of the prodigies present were instantly ignited!

"Bearing expectations as vast as the mountains and seas, in this battle, I must press forward!"

Especially Yun Che, who came from the very bottom, clenched his fists tightly. He swore to use his pair of iron fists to punch out a bright and clear world!

Li Chunfeng looked calm, as if he had no interest in these generous rewards at all. His eyes, covered by a black cloth, gazed into the distance, and he said in a low, ethereal voice: "Conserve strength, just getting into the top ten is enough. I only hope that in the final battle, I can meet that Chongtongzhe."

"Good!" The Holy Emperor surveyed everyone with satisfaction. Finally, his gaze landed on Li Chunfeng, his pupils shrinking slightly before he shifted his gaze away, feeling a bit shocked in his heart: "It is actually the Sword Dao Emperor Body—the Ten Thousand Swords Pilgrimage Body!"

"If this person were placed in the Immortal Domain and walked the orthodox Immortal Path, he would absolutely be someone who could become an Immortal Emperor!"

"Pity... he was born in this Endless Divine Land."

"Wait, this is... there is actually another genius!"

Turning his head again, the Holy Emperor saw another prodigy, his eyes almost widening, his mind unsteady!

Reflected in his pupils was a man wearing a Golden Fist Gauntlet!

It was precisely the man who had walked out from a remote village—Yun Che!

"This person is actually the Undying Battle God Body. Wasn't this constitution extinct a million years ago due to being too heaven-defying and suffering a Heavenly Tribulation? It has actually appeared in the world again!"

The Undying Battle God Body is just as the name implies: undying and indestructible. Like a cockroach that cannot be beaten to death, one grows stronger the more one fights, until one is completely exhausted!

Truly and realistically troublesome!

"A tiny Eastern Profound Domain is actually able to give rise to two peerless prodigies..."

"It seems that in this great era, the winner is about to be decided, and the chess players behind the scenes can no longer resist entering the game!"

The Holy Emperor thought to himself, focused his attention on these two, Li Chunfeng and Yun Che, and then turned and left with a look of worry.

He knew a great deal, and there were even some things that, given Lin Potian's current cultivation, were still far from the level where he should know them!

Without reaching the level of an Immortal Emperor, one is not worthy of knowing certain secrets; doing so would only bring endless ominousness and great terror!

And after the Holy Emperor turned and left, a pair of invisible eyes in the void slowly closed, muttering to themselves: "What of a decisive battle? The mandate of heaven is with me; this time, I will not be defeated!"

These invisible eyes belonged to none other than the high and mighty God of Gods; he had been monitoring everyone!

However, he had not monitored Lin Potian. Perhaps it was because there was still some lingering familial affection in his heart, or perhaps for other reasons; after watching what happened in the Martial Arts Arena, these invisible eyes quietly dissipated.

At the same time, taking advantage of being knocked away, Lin Potian did not look back and instantly returned to his Cave Abode.

Zhong Lin was indeed still there, currently sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, waiting.

"Zhong Lin, let's go, let's set off immediately for that opportunity you mentioned!" Lin Potian said in a rush.

"What's the rush? You're so hurried now, what were you doing earlier?" Zhong Lin opened her eyes and gave Lin Potian a reproachful look. She was very unhappy in her heart; when there was an opportunity, he had this kind of attitude, but when there was no opportunity, he would hide from her as if he had seen a ghost!

Hmph, men!

"I don't have much time, only three days, I'm afraid it will be too late." Lin Potian rubbed his nose and gave a sheepish smile. If it weren't for the fact that he had to participate in the Eastern Profound Domain Grand Competition and reach the top ten to use the Teleportation Array to enter the Central Province and meet that God of Gods, Lin Potian really wouldn't want to engage in these meaningless fights!

The Endless Divine Land was extremely vast, no smaller in area than the Immortal Domain, and likewise contained three thousand great universes, three thousand Dao Provinces, and five great domains; it was unimaginably large!

Only by using a Teleportation Array could one quickly enter the Central Province; otherwise, if one relied on flying, even if the direction remained consistently good, it would take a hundred years to fly there!

If it were a low-level cultivator or a mortal, they would never dream of leaving their Imperial Dynasty in their entire life, let alone traveling to the Central Province tens of thousands of miles away!

"Three days is indeed too much, that opportunity is in the Southern Profound Domain..." Zhong Lin frowned slightly.

"Southern Profound Domain?? Zhong Lin, are you joking with me? In three days, how could we possibly go to the Southern Profound Domain and return?" Upon hearing this, Lin Potian lost all his strength and means, suddenly falling into a dilemma: should he go with Zhong Lin to the Southern Profound Domain to find the Heaven-Reaching Token fragments, or stay here in the Eastern Profound Domain to participate in the Grand Competition?

"How about I ask the Holy Emperor to see if there is a Small Teleportation Array in the Domain Lord's treasury?"

Lin Potian had a flash of inspiration and calculated the feasibility in his heart.

And Zhong Lin, looking at Lin Potian's conflicted expression, the next second, covered her mouth and chuckled, speaking softly: "Alright, I'm done teasing you. With this thing, are you still afraid you won't be able to return?"

Having said that, one could see that in her jade hand, there appeared an object similar to a wheel...

"Hiss—! How do you have the array eye of a Small Teleportation Array?"

Lin Potian looked down and was instantly shocked into gasping for air, seeing at a glance that this wheel was the array eye of a Small Teleportation Array!

With the array eye, carving a Teleportation Array was an extremely simple matter.

This was a rare treasure, and yet Zhong Lin possessed it. For a moment, Lin Potian couldn't help but speculate about Zhong Lin's identity...

Lin Potian looked at Zhong Lin seriously and said in a deep voice: "How exactly did you come to the Endless Divine Land, and what exactly... is your current identity?"

"This is a long story, so I'll make a long story short!"

"Good."

"That is, you guess?" Zhong Lin playfully stuck out her pink tongue; she did not want to confess everything to Lin Potian so quickly.

But it was certain she would not harm Lin Potian.

"I guess... my ass." Lin Potian's mouth corners twitched wildly; what could he possibly guess? A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea—he couldn't figure it out, he absolutely couldn't figure it out!

"Then getting down to business is what matters, Teleportation Array—activate!"

"Target—Southern Profound Domain!"

Following Zhong Lin's words, that Small Teleportation Array suddenly erupted with a brilliant, dazzling light, illuminating instantly!

The light contained endless spatial power, surging wildly to form a massive vortex that instantly enveloped both Lin Potian and Zhong Lin!

Lin Potian only felt the scene before his eyes distort as he was swept into an endless spatial tunnel, surrounded by nothing but flowing light and shadows...

Zhong Lin, however, remained expressionless, as if this ultra-long-distance traversal were already a daily occurrence.

It seemed as though they had traveled for a long time, but in reality, it hadn't even taken twenty breaths of time; yet, if one were to travel that distance by foot, it would be unimaginable, requiring light-years to calculate!

Before long, when Lin Potian and Zhong Lin emerged again, they were already stepping on the soil of the Southern Profound Domain.

The scene that met his eyes made Lin Potian's eyelids twitch!

"Are you sure the opportunity you mentioned is here?"

Lin Potian pointed suspiciously at the open ground ahead, wondering if Zhong Lin had brought him to the wrong place.

All he could see ahead was nothing at all—just an endless, boundless desert!

"Sometimes, what you see is not necessarily the truth." Zhong Lin smiled mysteriously.

Upon hearing this, Lin Potian closed his eyes again to carefully sense with his divine soul, and he discovered an entrance ten thousand miles deep beneath this desert!

"At the bottom of this desert?" Lin Potian asked softly, not entirely certain.

Zhong Lin snapped her fingers, "Correct!"

Then she stomped one foot...

Bang!

The yellow sand between the two instantly formed a vortex, the center of which rapidly sank to create a massive black hole, devouring all light and sound in the vicinity!

Lin Potian felt the ground beneath his feet vanish, his body falling uncontrollably with the quicksand, and the yellow sand in his vision was gradually replaced by gloom; in less than a single breath, they had reached the bottom of this mysterious and unfathomable desert!

"The burial place of the God of Wind."

Lin Potian's vision suddenly cleared; an ancient stone tablet was revealed ahead, and as he walked closer, he saw these seven large characters.

Just at this moment, the True Spirit of Yuan An Zhi Shen, which had been resting and recuperating within Lin Potian's body, suddenly became agitated, its voice sounding incomparably sorrowful:

"My best brother, even you... have fallen?!"
