Lin Jin knew full well that he was quite capable. Back in Middle Earth, he could do whatever he wanted. Even if he had to face premium countries and top forces, he could do whatever he wanted. He didn't need to care about others at all.
Strength was his source of confidence.
But the problem was, they were in a foreign land. Forget about their treasures, just their physical strength alone was enough to crush Lin Jin.
They were all immortals.
Fortunately, Lin Jin could make up for his weaknesses in other areas.
He had many powerful treasures that could rival immortals. In addition, he had the immortal-level ghost-blood beast to protect himself. If a fight broke out, Lin Jin wouldn't give them away for nothing.
The problem was, Lin Jin couldn't retrieve any of the spirit pond's water. All of it had been sucked into the Four Seas Freedom Gourd. Lin Jin took a closer look and concluded that the water had most likely been 'swallowed' by the Four Seas Freedom Gourd's water reservoir armor.
In other words, it had already been swallowed into his stomach.
What was swallowed couldn't be spat out, nor could it be spat out.
The situation was tense. What surprised Lin Jin was that Giant Spirit's Zuo Men and Huangshi didn't abandon him. Instead, they stood guard around him, waiting for an opportunity. The Silly Bear also seemed to have sensed the hostility in the surroundings, and a terrifying battle intent also emanated from its body.
After all, Silly Bear was already full. Once he was full, his strength would multiply. Silly Bear alone could take on multiple immortals.
Lin Jin assessed their combat strength. Even so, if a fight broke out, Lin Jin would be the one at a disadvantage. Moreover, he would be dragging Zuo Men and Huangshi down with him.
They treated him as a friend so Lin Jin couldn't drag them down with him.
However, there was no way he could take out the spirit pond's water.
Explain?
Even if he told them the truth, no one would believe him. Lin Jin couldn't be bothered to explain either. If he wanted to resolve this crisis, he would have to find another way.
Just then, an idea struck Lin Jin.
Lin Jin spotted the immortals and immediately saluted them. "My friends from Xuan Dao Sect, I'm acquainted with your esteemed sect's Chen Xuankong. It was my master who taught you how to chase away the black mountain honey badgers. I'm here to visit Xuan Dao Sect as well."
The moment those words came out, all the celestials were startled. They all looked toward the Xuan Dao Sect's celestials.
The Xuan Dao Sect was very famous in the foreign lands. It was a true celestial sect. During the golden age of the celestial path, it was an existence that stood at the peak.
Even now, they were one of the most powerful forces in the foreign territory, especially the Xuan Dao Sect's Daoist Miao Yan. He was a true true celestial that had lived for 3,000 years. Normal loose celestials wouldn't dare to provoke him.
The celestials from the Xuan Dao Sect were also startled.
The leader looked surprised as he sized up Lin Jin before asking, "Could you be the disciple of Immortal Unfettered that Senior Brother Xuan Kong mentioned?" Lin Jin nodded.
Hiss!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present gasped in shock.
Great Immortal Xiaoyao?
What a joke!
Ever since the fall of the immortal path two thousand years ago, no one had heard of Immortal Xiaoyao. Now, in the foreign lands, true immortals were revered and Immortal Xiaoyao had become a legend.
So when they heard the Xuan Dao Sect's celestial call Immortal Xiaoyao's disciple, including the fat monk Du Shui and Old Immortal Du, they all felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads.
The disciple of Immortal Xiaoyao was not an existence they could provoke.
Forget monopolizing the spirit pool's water, even if the other party beat them up or spat on their faces, they wouldn't dare to say a word.
Those who were more timid were already sweating and thinking about running away.
But there were also those who were skeptical.
The great calamity of the immortal path, the power of the heavens, had instantly killed all the Immortal Xiaoyao. In other words, there could no longer be any Immortal Xiaoyao in this world.
For thousands of years, who had ever seen one?
No one had.
For a disciple of Immortal Xiaoyao to suddenly appear out of nowhere, no matter how they looked at it, it was impossible.
'Could it be that Lin Jin and Xuan Dao Sect are working together to put on a show? 'someone mused. Clearly, quite a number of people shared the same thought.
After all, this meant that the Xuan Dao Sect could monopolize all the spirit pool's water.
It wasn't impossible.
For a moment, shock and doubt filled the immortals' minds.
Lin Jin nodded at the Xuan Dao Sect immortal. Then, he led Zuo Men, Huang Shi, and Han Xiong over. Along the way, no one dared to stop them.
"How should I address you, my friend?" Lin Jin asked the Xuan Dao Sect immortal. The latter was obviously much older than Lin Jin but he didn't dare to be rude.
He quickly saluted and said, "Xuan Dao Sect's Liu Xuanji."
"Oh, Brother Xuanji!" Lin Jin returned the salute. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was actually secretly delighted.
Not bad, not bad at all.
Lin Jin didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He was just trying to use Xuan Dao Sect's strength to help him get out of trouble.
But he didn't expect Liu Xuanji to be so tactful. Even Lin Jin blushed when he heard him call him Immortal Unfettered's disciple.
But this wasn't a matter of shame. As long as he could get out of trouble, he didn't mind losing face.
Moreover, this was actually a matter of pride. Once the title of Immortal Unfettered's disciple got out, basically no one would dare to provoke him.
Even the aggressive Old Immortal Du and the other Itinerant Immortals had all given up and behaved themselves. No one brought up the matter of the spirit pool's water again.
It was still the same saying. No matter where you go, the one with the bigger fist is the one in the right.
Hence, only by being in the right can one travel the world!
"I was planning to pay a visit to the Xuan Dao Sect and happened to run into you, Brother Xuanji. Would you be willing to lead the way?" Lin Jin asked politely.
Liu Xuanji couldn't have asked for more.
He had long forgotten about the spirit pond's water. Or rather, he didn't dare to pursue the matter any further. Moreover, he was still wondering who Lin Jin was to be able to collect all the water in the spirit pond in such a short period of time.
Now, the mystery was solved.
Wasn't it normal for a disciple of Immortal Unfettered's level to be capable of this?
Perhaps Lin Jin was here to collect the spirit pool's water on his master's orders.
Xuan Dao Sect didn't want the spirit pool's water anyway. Now that Lin Jin wanted to pay a visit to the sect, he immediately took the initiative to lead the way.
Still, no one dared to stop him.
It was one thing to be suspicious, but no one dared to go up and stop them.
What if he was Immortal Unfettered's disciple? Wouldn't that be suicide?
Even if they were reluctant, there was nothing they could do.
And so, they could only watch as Lin Jin swaggered away.
Giant Spirit's Zuo Men and Huangshi felt like they were in a dream. They had planned to fight with their lives but who knew there would be light at the end of the tunnel.
However, if Lin Jin was Immortal Unfettered's disciple, they couldn't help but feel a sense of distance. The group left the valley. Once they were outside, Zuo Men and Huangshi wanted to bid farewell.
