Above South Sea, there are vast expanse of blue waves. The towering mountain-like Graveyard of the Gods, after the silver light door was completely closed, completely disappeared into the void and disappeared, as if it had never existed. Only two groups of people above the sea were left, clearly separated but silent to each other.
On one side, there is the number stem position Saint Realm including Linley, Desri, Olivier, Fain, Rosalie, etc. Among the strongest, most of them have unstable breaths, more or less injuries on their bodies, and some even have missing limbs, but their eyes are filled with happiness, fatigue, and a trace of excitement or loss that cannot be concealed. In the ten years of life and death fighting in the tomb, everyone has experienced too much.
On the other side, there are five God-level powerhouses headed by Lin Qin, War God, High Priestess, Dylan, and Cesar. They are suspended in the air, their auras are condensed, although some of them are wearing clothes that have not completely faded away. There are no traces of the battle, but the pressure and magnanimity of the gods are far beyond the comparison of the Saint Realm. Especially Lin Qin, just standing there calmly, has naturally become the focus of sight. Even Dylan and Cesar beside him have a vague aura of respect for him.
After a brief silence, there was a suppressed commotion in the Saint Realm crowd. Many eyes involuntarily drifted to Linley, or more precisely, to the inconspicuous Space Ring. Graveyard of the Gods tenth in his fingers. On the first floor, the news that Linley had won three Godhead (earth, wind, and Destruction) had already spread quietly in the Saint Realm circle. At this moment, there was envy, jealousy, desire, and deep calculation in his eyes.
Just when the atmosphere was slightly subtle, a gentle but boundless pressure came without warning.
Everyone felt that their souls were clear, and they couldn't help but restrain all their thoughts, and looked respectfully towards the direction from which the pressure came.
In the air not far away, Beirut's black-robed and black-haired figure quietly emerged. He held Bebe, who was still energetic, in his arms. With a faint smile on his face, his eyes swept over the people below, especially Linley, who paused for a moment, and then stayed on Lin Qin for a moment.
"It is good fortune to be able to come out alive after ten years." Beirut's voice was calm, but clearly passed into the depths of everyone's soul, "This Graveyard of the Gods trip ends here."
He looked at Linley in the Saint Realm crowd, smiled and said, "Linley, you are very good. It is an opportunity to be recognized by Godhead at the Saint Realm stage. Proof of your own strength. With your talent and accumulation, you will definitely become a god within ten years." As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a low uproar among the strong Saint Realm. Master Beirut personally predicted it! What this means is self-evident.
Beirut's eyes turned to Olivier, who had a cold breath and intertwined light and darkness. "Olivier, the path you take is very special. The two opposing rules of light and darkness can coexist, collide, and even begin to try to merge in your soul. This This kind of talent is unique. Future achievements may not be inferior to Linley." Olivier's body shook slightly, and for the first time a look of emotion appeared on his cold face, and then his eyes became sharper and firmer. He looked at Linley, and his fighting spirit disappeared in a flash.
Finally, Beirut's eyes swept over the other Saint Realm strong men with longing eyes and floating minds, and his voice was slightly deeper. "As for Godhead, it's an opportunity., is also a test. Those with similar attributes can be refined to become gods, but the way forward is basically cut off. The real path lies in understanding the world and becoming gods independently! I hope you and others will have firm faith and do not ruin the infinite possibilities of the future because of shortcuts."
These words were like pouring cold water on the head, making many Saint Realm strong men who had been carried away by Godhead sober up a little, but the desire in their eyes was not completely extinguished. After all, becoming an independent god is easier said than done?
"Okay, things are over here, let's all disperse." Beirut said no more and waved his hand.
As he finished speaking, the sea surface below suddenly surged violently, and a huge whirlpool appeared out of thin air. In the center of the whirlpool, the sea water separated to both sides, revealing a deep channel that led directly to the bottom of the sea. This is the submarine channel back to the Yulan Continent.
At this moment, a clear and somewhat tired voice came from down the passage. "Hey, everyone is here? You can let me wait."
I saw a young man wearing a blue robe, with long sea-blue hair, a handsome face and an enchanting face, lazily walking out of the passage.
"Tarosha!" Dylan saw him, his eyes moved slightly, and he called out his name.
This blue-haired young man is the manager of the first eleven floors of the Graveyard of the Gods Dao, the mythical beast "Ba Serpent" Tarosha! He has obviously been instructed by Beirut to open the passage here and wait.
Tarosha greeted Dylan with a smile, and nodded to War God and High Priestess. When his eyes glanced at Lin Qin, a trace of curiosity and inquiry flashed in his eyes, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Beirut nodded. "Tarosha, you can go back to the Yulan Continent with them. You will also know my rules from now on, so you don't have to break them again."
Tarosha replied obediently, "Don't worry, Master Beirut."
Under the guidance of Tarosha, everyone entered the submarine channel one by one. The channel was wide and supported by soft aqua light, which isolated the pressure of the deep sea. The Saint Realm strong men were in small groups, chatting in low voices, and the topics were always about Godhead, harvests and future plans. The God-level strong men flew silently, and occasionally made eye contact with each other.
After walking through the long undersea passage, everyone felt completely relaxed. After living and dying in the tomb for ten years, they finally returned to their homeland.
Next, they parted ways. Saint Realm The strong men each flew towards their own power or place of cultivation. Linley took Bebe with him, and Barker The brothers and others gathered together and returned to Dragonblood Castle. Olivier turned into a black and white streamer and disappeared into the sky. Desri and other independent Saint Realm also went their separate ways.
On the God-level side, the atmosphere is a bit subtle.
War God O'Brien flew in silence for a while, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. With a sway, he came to Lin Qin's side and walked side by side with him.
The usual indifference on his face softened slightly, and he spoke carefully, "Lin Qin."
Lin Qin turned to look at him. "Sir War God, is there something wrong?"
War God looked at Lin Qin's calm eyes, secretly sighing in his heart at the depth of the opponent's aura after breaking through the middle position, and said directly, "You are on the 14th and 15th floors, can you gain Fire Element attributes - middle position Godhead?" He tried his best in tone. He is dull, but the fleeting desire deep in his eyes cannot be hidden from others. He has been trapped in Lowgod for too long, and Refine Divine Spark became a god. Without a great opportunity, he may not be able to make any progress in his life. A mid-level Godhead is the only hope for him to break through the current bottleneck and skyrocket in strength.
Lin Qin knew it in his heart. War God majored in Fire Element. Seeing his rapid improvement in strength and knowing that he had broken into a higher level, he naturally had a glimmer of hope. He pondered for a moment and did not answer immediately. Instead, he asked, "Your Excellency War God, do you want Fire Element Intermediate Godhead?"
War God nodded and made no secret of it. "Yes. If so, I am willing to pay the corresponding price in exchange." He glanced at Lin Qin, "I know that your Dragon Rock Territory foundation is still shallow. I, War God Mountain, have been operating in the O'Brien Empire for thousands of years. The resources, intelligence, and even some secret training ground information accumulated may be what you need."
Lin Qin looked at War God and shook his head slowly. "Fire Element Intermediate Godhead, I have it."
War God's eyes flashed, and his breathing became slightly faster.
"But," Lin Qin changed the topic, his voice was calm but firm, "Your Excellency War God, you should understand what the value of a median Godhead, especially a median Godhead with similar attributes, means. This is not something that can only be measured by resources."
War God's face darkened. "What do you want?"
"It's not what I want." Lin Qin said lightly, "It's what you can offer that is enough to match a mid-range Godhead and make me willing to exchange it."
War God was silent. His War God Mountain accumulation is certainly rich, but in the final analysis, Yulan Continent is just a Material Plane. There are too few things that can really impress a mid-level god, especially a mid-level god like Lin Qin, who obviously does not lack ordinary resources. Artifact?
Lin Qin himself has better wealth and power? It means little to God-level. A unique cultivation method or insight? He himself is stuck at a bottleneck, so what profound things can he come up with?
After thinking about it, it seems that there is only some scattered information about the ancient ruins of the Yulan Continent, and even some Higher Plane, which may have some value, but the authenticity and value of these things are difficult to estimate, and whether they can impress Lin Qin is even more unknown.
Seeing that War God was silent, Lin Qin didn't push it, but said calmly, "War God, you can consider it slowly. If you have something suitable for trading, you can come to Dragon Rock Territory to find me at any time. However, Godhead waits for no one, and maybe other people who need it will appear in the future."
This statement has been made very clear. I have things, but I will not give them away for free or sell them cheaply. If I want them, I will exchange them for something of truly equal value.
War God's face changed, and finally turned into a complicated sigh. He knew that Lin Qin was right, the other party had no obligation to help him, and all transactions should be fair. "----I understand." He said no more to Lin Qin nodded, then signaled to High Priestess, Dylan and others, then turned into a red stream of light and sped away in the direction of the O'Brien Empire, his back showing a bit of loneliness and unwillingness.
High Priestess Catherine watched this scene from a distance and shook her head slightly. She majored in Life Law and had no need for Fire Godhead. She also knew that Lin Qin was not from the Holy Mother, so the result was not surprising.
Dylan flew to Lin Qin and said coldly, "Then O'Brien, I'm afraid it will take a long time to give in." He got Destruction Godhead as a gift from Lin Qin. Although it was not refined, he remembered this feeling in his heart and naturally stood by Lin Qin.
Cesar also came over and said with a smile, "War God, that old guy, used to have his eyes higher than his head, but now he knows how to ask for help? But Lin Qin, brother, you did the right thing, the middle Godhead, that is a treasure that can create a middle god, how can you change it casually."
Lin Qin nodded slightly to the two of them, without explaining much. He had his own rules for doing things, and he was not stingy in helping his companions fighting side by side (such as giving Dylan, Cesar, Godhead), but he would never give indiscriminate favors, especially when facing an old God-level like War God with whom he had little relationship. Everything must be exchanged at equal value.
"Everyone, if we meet again by chance, I will go back to Dragon Rock Territory first." Lin Qin said. He needs to go back as soon as possible to join up with me, integrate this huge harvest, and plan the next step.
Dylan said, "Farewell, if you have something to do in the future, you can come and look for me in the depths of the Magic Beast Mountain Range." He got Godhead, experienced the war, and gained a lot of insights, which he was eager to digest.
Cesar also said, "I also have to find a place to hang out and study the doorways in this Darkness Godhead. Lin Qin brother, Dragon Rock Territory can call you anytime if you need anything!" After that, the two of them turned into streams of light and left.
High Priestess Catherine smiled gently at Lin Qin: "Your Excellency Lin Qin, thank you for taking care of me. Yulan Empire is close to Dragon Rock Territory. If you have time in the future, you are welcome to visit Yulan Empire." She kept her posture very low, obviously recognizing Lin Qin's current strength and status.
Lin Qin returned the gift. "High Priestess You're welcome."
In the blink of an eye, only Lin Qin and Tarosha were left. Tarosha looked at Lin Qin with interest. "Hey, it seems that you are doing well here Yulan Continent. Someone came to visit you just after you came back."
Lin Qin looked at him. "Tarosha, what are your plans?"
"Me?" Tarosha stretched, "Just take a stroll and see how this Yulan Continent is different from tens of thousands of years ago.
Maybe I will go to Dark Forest to find Mr. Beirut, or maybe I will go somewhere else to have fun. What, you want to invite me to your Dragon Rock Territory?" There was a joke in his eyes.
"Dragon Rock Territory welcomes any friends." Lin Qin said calmly.
Tarosha raised his eyebrows and half-smiled, "Okay, let's go take a look when we get the chance." He waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" The figure turned into a blue light and disappeared into the sky in an instant, without knowing where to go.
At this point, the God-level strong men who returned from Graveyard of the Gods dispersed.
Lin Qin stopped staying, determined the direction, and flew away towards the location of Chaos Territory and Dragon Rock Territory. He kept the situation of the territory in mind, and was eager to turn this harvest into real strength.
And not long after he flew away, a thin figure shrouded in black robe slowly appeared on the shore of the South Sea. Looking at the direction Lin Qin left, it was Beirut. Bebe in his arms had disappeared.
"The middle god----Fusion Profound Mystery----Dragonblood Warrior----" Beirut whispered to himself, a hint of approval flashed in his black stone eyes, "Yulan Continent This pool of water has been silent for too long, it's time for some new waves. Lin Qin----Linley----
Ha, that's interesting."
His figure slowly faded, and finally disappeared as if blending into the air. Only the sea breeze remained, blowing on this coast that had just experienced the return of a legend.
Lin Qin returned home as fast as an arrow, and at full speed, in less than half a day, it had already crossed the vast area and returned to the sky above Chaos Territory. Looking down, Chaos Territory, which once suffered from frequent wars and poor people's livelihood, has now changed greatly.
With the original Dragon Rock Stronghold as the center, a large-scale and well-planned majestic city rises from the ground. The city wall is tall and thick, made of neat Black Granite, glowing with a steady luster in the sun. Flags are fluttering on the city wall, and people wearing standard armor can be vaguely seen.
Soldiers with strong auras patrolled. Outside the city, there were large tracts of fertile farmland that had been reclaimed. There were criss-crossing streets and canals, and farmers were working in the fields. Further away, new villages and towns were dotted here and there, extending to the end of the field of vision. A wide and flat official road was winding like a giant dragon, connecting all directions. Caravans and horses were constantly coming and going, making it appear full of vitality.
"It seems that Soros they have done a good job." Lin Qin felt slightly pleased in his heart. He has been away for ten years, and Dragon Rock Territory is in Soros,
Under the governance of Aileen, Old Jack and others, instead of declining, it has flourished and has become somewhat stable and strong.
He didn't alert anyone, he restrained his breath, and like an inconspicuous breeze, he fell silently into the depths of the Lord's Mansion.
Everything in the mansion was as usual, except for the added heaviness of time. His true self had already sensed the return of Divine Clone and walked out of the deepest Black Jade Stone practice room.
The combination of the two is the complete Lin Qin!
At the same time, he also clearly felt the progress of his body. Ten years of continuous extreme training, coupled with the baptism of the soul when Divine Clone broke through the laws of heaven and earth, also indirectly affected the body. Now his physical strength has firmly entered the level of Midgod Artifact! Based on such a powerful body, the power that the Dragonblood Warrior blood can burst out is even more terrifying.
"Huh----" After a long time, Lin Qin slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, with a bright light in his eyes. This trip to Graveyard of the Gods, the harvest was huge, far beyond expectations.
His thoughts moved slightly, and Divine Clone turned into a ray of earth-yellow light, submerged into the body of the deity, hidden in the divine sea of dantian, and could be called at any time. And the deity became the leader.
He put on an ordinary blue robe and walked out of the practice room.
Dragon Rock Territory's core senior executives, including Soros, Aileen, Hosen, Bader, Old Jack, Murphy, who had already received his secret message, were waiting respectfully in the outer hall.
Seeing Lin Qin walk out, everyone's eyes showed excitement and relief. Ten years is not a long time for the Saint Realm and God-level, who have long lifespans, but for an emerging force, the long-term absence of the leader is always a stone hanging in the heart.
"Lord!" Everyone bowed and saluted.
Lin Qin glanced at everyone. Soros became more calm and capable, with the wisdom in his eyes restrained; Aileen's temperament became more graceful, his magic power fluctuated solidly, and his cultivation was obviously improved; Hosen Bader has an iron-blooded aura, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth level, not far from the Saint Realm; Old Jack is energetic; Murphy is like a sharp sword hidden in a sheath, with a vague aura.
"I have worked hard for you all these years when I was away." Lin Qin spoke, his voice calm, but with a reassuring weight.
Soros took a step forward and briefly but clearly reported the development of Dragon Rock Territory in the past ten years: in terms of internal affairs, population surge, land reclamation, commercial prosperity, and the legal system are becoming increasingly perfect; in terms of military affairs, military reorganization and training Training, equipment updating, absorbing many wandering strong men, the strength has steadily improved; in terms of diplomacy, it has maintained good relations with the O'Brien Empire and Yulan Empire, and the rule of Chaos Territory has been unshakable.
Lin Qin listened quietly and occasionally asked one or two key questions. He was very satisfied with everyone's work. Dragon Rock Territory's foundation has been laid.
"Aileen." Lin Qin looked at her, "Magic Tower and the construction of the mage group, how is the progress?"
Aileen bowed slightly and said in a clear voice, "Sir, according to the plan before you left, we have built foundations Magic Tower in three major cities in the territory, recruited and trained a group of potential magicians, and established communication channels with Ernst Institute.
Although high-end capabilities are still lacking, the framework is in place, and given time, it will surely reach scale."
Lin Qin nodded. Magical power is an indispensable part of the long-term development of the territory.
He then asked Hosen and Bader about the army and border defense, Old Jack about logistics and people's livelihood, and Murphy about intelligence and surveillance, and everyone answered them one by one.
Lin Qin also took out some of the rare materials and ores obtained from Graveyard of the Gods and gave them to Soros to store in the warehouse as territory reserve resources for rewarding meritorious people or future transactions.
Finally, he left Aileen alone.
Looking at the woman in front of him whose temperament became more gentle and calm, but whose eyes could not hide the affection, Lin Qin said in a gentler tone, "Thank you for your hard work these years."
Aileen shook her head slightly and said with a smile, "It's not hard. I'm very happy to see Dragon Rock Territory getting better and better on the road you planned." She paused, with a trace of curiosity and expectation in her eyes, "You seem to be different this time."
Lin Qin knew that she had a keen sense, and did not hide it. "Some opportunities have slightly improved her strength." He took out a light cyan crystal that exuded soft life and Wind Element fluctuations (refined with the remaining leaves and other materials), and handed it to Aileen, "This object is useless to me, but for those who practice life magic or Wind Element magic, it has the effect of nourishing the soul and purifying magic power, please accept it."
Aileen took the crystal and warmed it. A comfortable breath came, which lifted her spirits. She knew that this was by no means an ordinary thing, and a warm current surged in her heart, and she whispered, "Thank you."
