Sect Goes Bankrupt, Sect Master Mines

A long cry echoed through the sky. Lin Yu's clothes flapped fiercely as he tilted his head back to face the rising sun, slowly spreading his arms. Then, he activated the Divine Power throughout his body and began to inhale and exhale.

In an instant, the scorching sunlight was pulled by a mysterious force, solidifying and turning into streams of brilliant golden light. These streams, carrying immense and unparalleled essence of the fierce sun, poured into his nose and mouth like tired birds returning to their nests.

"Bang!"

In the deepest part of his body, a particle suddenly exploded, and an even more immense Divine Power erupted like a surging tsunami. A terrifying aura spread out from him like ripples.

The entire oasis seemed to have pressed the pause button, falling into a brief, deathly silence. However, after only a few breaths, it completely boiled over!

At the headquarters of the Holy King Sect, many cultivators were busy with their own tasks. Some were focused on cultivating profound techniques; some were meticulously repairing the palaces; others were patiently guiding the newcomers, teaching them cultivation experience.

At this moment, they were all attracted by the sudden surge of power and stopped what they were doing, discussing amongst themselves.

"So terrifying, I feel like I can't even breathe!" a young cultivator said with a flushed face, speaking with difficulty.

"What's going on? Could a master have come to attack?" another cultivator asked nervously, looking around vigilantly.

"Look, there's someone in the sky!" a sharp-eyed cultivator was the first to spot Lin Yu in the air.

"It's our Sect Master! The Sect Master's aura is so terrifying!" someone in the crowd recognized Lin Yu and exclaimed.

"Everyone, don't panic. This is our Sect Master having a breakthrough in cultivation," several elders quickly stepped forward to calm the panicked crowd.

At this moment, Lin Yu had no time to pay attention to the discussions below. He focused entirely on looking inward, seeing that the twenty-first particle had awakened.

Now, Lin Yu's entire body was filled with plump muscles. Every muscle, every blood vessel, every bone, every meridian, seemed to have been tempered to the extreme, radiating a heavy, metallic texture.

His entire body had already transcended the realm of humans and was gradually transforming into something akin to a deity, radiating a sacred, noble aura that surpassed everything.

The Divine Elephant Source was quietly changing his life form. As his cultivation continued to improve in the future, the gap between him and those so-called heaven's favored divine bodies and other special physiques would be completely widened.

Once all the Giant Elephant Particles awakened, eight hundred and forty million times the Life Source would make him a complete cultivation freak, a peerless monstrous talent!

Give the locals a little shock from the Divine Elephant! This thought flashed through Lin Yu's mind, and a mischievous smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

"I heard that after the Eight Restrictions comes the Divine Forbidden. If one day I can fight across more than a dozen realms, would I be considered Divine Forbidden or not?"

After all, the "Divine Forbidden" required the Five Great Secret Realms to resonate and integrate with the Great Universe, thus infinitely increasing combat power. As for him, he only needed to continuously awaken the Giant Elephant Particles.

However, after the previous operations, the Source collected after destroying the five major sects was already running low. If he didn't find a solution soon, the Holy King Sect, which had only been established for a few days, might even have trouble paying "salaries" to its disciples.

The sun set in the west, its afterglow scattering across the land. The sky was filled with colorful clouds, like a magnificent painting. Following the memories of the Green Mist Sect's Sect Master, Lin Yu arrived at a village built of stones.

This village was not large, with only a few dozen households and a total population of just over two hundred people.

Lin Yu descended from the air and found that the villagers were indeed fierce. Regardless of gender or age, all the villagers held sharp knives.

Then, a white-haired old man was the first to step forward, bowing deeply to Lin Yu and respectfully saying, "Greetings, young immortal. This old man pays his respects."

"Old sir, there's no need for such courtesy. My surname is Yang; you don't need to call me immortal," Lin Yu nodded in return and then asked, "Are you Grandpa Zhang Wu?"

"This old man's surname is indeed Zhang. May I ask why young Mr. Yang has come here? We have already paid this month's Source on time," Grandpa Zhang Wu asked nervously and cautiously.

"I have a few things to do here. The first is to tell you that the Green Mist Sect, which used to oppress you and act tyrannically, has been destroyed by our Holy King Sect!" Lin Yu said with a smile, his voice clear and loud.

"What?! The Green Mist Sect was destroyed just like that?" This first piece of news was like a heavy hammer, stunning everyone into a daze.

"That's right, not only the Green Mist Sect, but all five major sects have been destroyed. Their territories are now all under the control of our Holy King Sect."

"If you have any difficulties, feel free to come to us for help. Also, after some time, we will have disciples come over to check the aptitude of your children. If their aptitude is good, they can join the Holy King Sect."

First shock! Second shock! Third shock!

"The Green Mist Sect was really destroyed by you?" Grandpa Zhang Wu still looked disbelieving.

"Don't worry, take a look at whose head this is," Lin Yu said, casually throwing out a head. It landed on the ground with a "bang."

A group of people immediately gathered around, examining the head for a long time. Finally, they confirmed its identity and immediately cheered.

"That dog Big Beard Chen, he did so many bad things over the years, he finally got his comeuppance."

"And the Green Mist Sect, they weren't good people either."

"Wuwu..." Among the crowd, some people remembered their relatives who had died at the hands of the Green Mist Sect and couldn't help but feel sorrow, crying out in pain.

"It seems the five major sects really tormented the local residents," Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh as he watched the reactions of the crowd.

"It's a good thing we destroyed them, otherwise who knows how much more evil they would have done!"

"Thank you, Holy King Sect, for helping us get revenge. If you need anything, just say the word!" Grandpa Zhang Wu came before Lin Yu, his face full of gratitude.

"You're welcome. I plan to go to Purple Mountain. I heard that your ancestor was a Source Heavenly Master and explored Purple Mountain. I would like you to tell me the route map."

Now, all of his Holy King Sect disciples had become "miners," the elders acted as overseers, and he, the Sect Master, had no choice but to go out and find some "sideline business" to pay his employees.

Purple Mountain is one of the largest Dragon Veins in the Northern Region. The Source Heavenly Master said: Nine dragons guarding a pearl, exhausting the ultimate mysteries of the changes in heaven and earth!

Its two previous masters, the Undying Heavenly Sovereign and the Great Emperor Wushi, both used it as their dojo. The Undying Heavenly Sovereign even cultivated his Heavenly Sovereign's Son here using the Creation Source Eye. After the Undying Heavenly Sovereign left, his Undying Heavenly Empress and Eight Divisions Divine Generals continued to stay here.

Later, the place was controlled by the Great Emperor Wushi, and now the Wushi Bell is guarding the Great Emperor Wushi's inheritance within it. The feng shui here is excellent; just digging a couple of shovelfuls yields enough resources for him to cultivate.

In Lin Yu's opinion, only by mining could he achieve his dream of making the Holy King Sect "rich."

However, to start mining, he first needed to find the Source Heavenly Book that the Zhang family ancestor had lost in Purple Mountain.

Thanks to the great master [nki7] for the monthly ticket!
