C850 He Wanted to Kill Lin Cheng
Lin Cheng had high expectations for this mighty warrior from the Myriad Sword Sect, but the result disappointed him.
This was not a Half-step Sovereign, but a mighty warrior who had regained control of the rules of the heaven and earth.
This mighty warrior was certainly stronger than the other mighty warriors Lin Cheng had encountered before. His combat strength was also shocking. More importantly, this man also had divine sense.
However, in the end, this man was only a mighty figure. He still hadn't stepped through the gate and entered the Half-step Sovereign Stage.
Therefore, the challenge that Lin Cheng had been looking forward to was to temper himself.
However, there was one advantage to this. Lin Cheng could use this opportunity to verify some of his previous deductions.
After becoming a mighty figure, there were countless divine abilities and combat skills in Lin Cheng's mind. The so-called divine abilities were merely a method to utilize the natural laws of heaven and earth. However, compared to combat techniques, divine abilities were much more ingenious in utilizing the Laws of the Heavens and Earth. At the same time, it also possessed greater power.
However, his battle experience was still lacking, so he always felt that he was lacking in power when he wanted to create divine abilities.
It wasn't because he hadn't reached his realm, but because he didn't have enough experience.
In fact, divine abilities didn't have much of an effect on powerful beings. The reason he wanted to create his divine ability was to teach Green Snake. At the same time, it was also to make the disciples of Longevity Sect stronger.
Lin Cheng knew that he might not be a match for that devil. If that devil hadn't fully recovered after being suppressed... Perhaps Lin Cheng still had the strength to fight, but if that devil had already recovered... It was an existence that could fight against supreme beings. It was absolutely not something that a mere mighty figure like him could withstand.
However, he had no idea when the devil would suddenly explode. Therefore, he could only hope that the Dongzhou would be plunged into misery and suffering. He could do his best to increase the strength of Green Snake and the people of Longevity Sect, so that they could protect themselves. If it was within his ability, he could also bring some people to other provinces.
This was the only thing Lin Cheng could do for the living beings of Dongzhou. He only had this much ability.
If that was the case, Lin Cheng would use this so-called Half-step Sovereign to train himself.
Therefore, Lin Cheng suppressed the disappointment in his heart and continued to fight his opponent.
However, Lin Cheng, who was in the midst of fighting, didn't know that his opponent was both shocked and angry at the same time.
Liang Shijin was incomparably angry in his heart, but at the same time, he was also filled with shock.
He was an almighty expert of Myriad Sword Sect, and also the Old Ancestor of Myriad Sword Sect. Even the previous generation's Sect Master had to call him Old Ancestor when he saw him. Currently, he was more than four thousand years old.
Three thousand years ago, Liang Shijin was already an almighty expert. He was one of the few powerful experts in Dongzhou.
At that time, Liang Shijin was in high spirits. He almost thought that he was the future supreme being, the ruler of Dongzhou and even the entire Nine-prefecture Continent.
However, as time passed, Liang Shijin gradually panicked.
Because he discovered that he was stuck at the level of a supreme being. He was actually unable to break through even after a long time. Not to mention breaking through, he didn't even make the slightest progress. What kind of realm and Cultivation Level was it when one became a Supreme Elder? It was still the same even after several decades. This caused his confidence to be somewhat lacking.
He had found countless ways to break this deadlock and break through, but he was still unable to advance an inch.
Liang Shijin gradually felt despair. He realized that he might end up like the other seniors of Myriad Sword Sect, stuck at the Great Power Stage until the heavenly tribulation descended and turned him into ashes.
This made Liang Shijin extremely unwilling. In the end, he decided to seal himself up.
He had the experts of Myriad Sword Sect who could still attack him set up a formation. He had completely concealed his Qi and entered a state of false death.
In this way, a thousand years had passed. He had waited until the disciples of Myriad Sword Sect accidentally obtained a magic treasure from a secret realm. He sensed the magic treasure and woke up from his deep sleep. He discovered that it was a Sovereign Artifact, an Intrinsic Magic Treasure used by the supreme beings of Ancient Times.
It was by borrowing the aura of the Sovereign Artifact that Liang Shijin finally broke through. However, he didn't break through to the Half-step Sovereign. Instead, he regained control of the rules of heaven and earth, and became a mighty being once again.
In fact, during the long period of his slumber, his realm had fallen, and this was the price he had to pay for sealing himself. Because almighty beings once controlled the laws of heaven and earth, if their cultivation base did not fall... It was impossible to completely hide from the Laws of Heaven and Earth. It was just a matter of time.
Liang Shijin, who had just broken through and became an almighty expert, was pleasantly surprised to find out that he had actually touched the threshold of the Half-step Sovereign. His overall strength and Cultivation Level had improved a lot compared to before he fell into a deep sleep, especially during his deduction with the other major powers in the sect. He found out that his strength had actually surpassed the other major powers by more than a level. This made Liang Shijin incomparably pleasantly surprised. He realized that perhaps he had found the right direction. In the future, as long as there was an opportunity, he would be able to become a major power.
More importantly, this new breakthrough had made his control over the natural laws of Heaven and Earth even purer. He almost thought that he was the ruler of this world.
As for the emergence of the Great Devil later on, it was nothing to Liang Shijin. It wasn't that he didn't put the Great Devil in his eyes, but in his point of view, the birth of the Great Devil had no effect on him at all.
He wasn't a match for the Great Devil, but he wasn't afraid of it. If he really couldn't do it, he could continue hiding and even lose his way to other provinces, just like how he had been sleeping and avoiding the heavenly tribulation all those years ago.
When he became a true supreme being one day, he would be able to fight the Great Devil again. Perhaps, he would become the only supreme being in Nine-prefecture Continent.
In particular, when he comprehended the dao aura within the Sovereign Artifact, he had even given birth to his Divine Sense, which gave him even more confidence.
As for whether the Great Devil would be plunged into misery and suffering after its birth, it had nothing to do with him. Even the disciples of Myriad Sword Sect could die, so how could he care about the lives of others?
However, he still needed the disciples of the Myriad Sword Sect to gather resources for him. In particular, he needed to search for the Sovereign Artifact or the remains left behind during the war in Ancient Times, and find a way to break through to the Half-step Sovereign. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to save Wu Juyuan.
Besides that, there was another important thing. When he heard that the person chasing Wu Juyuan was Lin Cheng, his interest was immediately aroused, because Lin Cheng had the Sovereign Artifact in his hand. This was too important.
The reason why he broke through once again was because he had comprehended the Dao Charm within the Sovereign Artifact. How could such a divine weapon fall into someone else's hands? Especially since it was a rogue cultivator who didn't have any foundation, he would definitely seize it.
Of course, this was only what he thought in his heart. He wouldn't tell those disciples about it.
However, what Liang Shijin never expected was that he, the ruler of Dongzhou... Furthermore... Most importantly, Lin Cheng wasn't any weaker than him. Whether it was his combat strength, his magical equipment, or his Divine Sense!
That's right!
Liang Shijin did not expect Lin Cheng to have Divine Sense as well. When he first discovered it, he was shocked.
How could this be?!
Divine Sense!
That was something only Half-step Sovereign warriors could possess. How could Lin Cheng possibly have divine sense?
The reason why Liang Shijin was so confident and believed that he would become the ruler of Dongzhou and even Nine-prefecture Continent in the future was because he had Divine Sense. No other mighty figures could compete with him.
It was also because of Divine Sense that Liang Shijin didn't even think that he was a mighty figure, but a Half-step Sovereign warrior who had already stepped into the Half-step Sovereign. That was why he called himself his true self.
But today, Liang Shijin had encountered an opponent.
Lin Cheng was actually able to fight him in an intense battle, and he was even able to fight him equally. He even found out that Lin Cheng's Divine Sense seemed to be stronger than his own!
This discovery really shocked and infuriated Liang Shijin, causing his original idea of thinking that he was a Half-step Sovereign to be shaken.
Furthermore, when Liang Shijin found out that he might not be able to defeat an almighty expert, he started to panic.
This was impossible!
According to his understanding, this Lin Cheng was just a kid who had just broken through to become an almighty expert not too long ago. How could he be so powerful? If this continued... Wouldn't that mean that Lin Cheng had a very high chance of breaking through to the Half-step Sovereign, or perhaps even... the Supreme Being realm?
He couldn't let this continue, he had to kill him!
Lin Cheng was already a mighty figure at such a young age. If he continued to grow, what would happen?
At this moment, a strong killing intent rose in Liang Shijin's heart.
Lin Cheng had already planned to temper himself. When the two of them clashed, an incomparably intense battle finally broke out.
Both of them were mighty figures, even though Liang Shijin had already touched the threshold of the Half-step Sovereign. Furthermore, his means were not much different from the other mighty figures. In fact, at the level of a mighty warrior, combat skills and divine abilities were no longer important. As for Lin Cheng, who had cultivated the Grain God Spell, whether it was the Elemental Spirit, the spiritual sense, or his Divine Sense... He was not any weaker than Liang Shijin.
Furthermore, Lin Cheng's physique was also shockingly strong.
In addition, Lin Cheng had the Sovereign Artifact. Although he hadn't used the Imperial Bow yet, just the Monarch Spear alone was enough to make Liang Shijin feel fearful.2
In this way, the two of them could be said to be evenly matched, equally matched.
Seeing that Liang Shijin also seemed like he wanted to have a life-and-death battle, Lin Cheng became even more excited. While taking advantage of this opportunity to train himself, he kept unleashing the divine abilities and combat skills he had created. Then, he would look for flaws and gradually perfect them.
During this process, Lin Cheng had never used the Rule of Power. He didn't use the Imperial Bow either, because he didn't know what other tricks he had up his sleeve. Furthermore, even if it was a life and death battle, he would still refine his own body. Not the Sovereign Artifact.
Furthermore, what Lin Cheng hoped for the most was to find a way to reach the Half-step Sovereign Stage from a person's body.
And the origin of his Divine Sense!
