Yang Jie was terrified. He didn't expect immortals to still exist in this world.
After all, this was an immortal they were talking about, an existence that only existed in legends.
Who would dare go against an immortal?
Lin Jin?
Even when his teacher told him that Lin Jin would come to save them, Yang Jie found it hard to believe.
No matter how powerful Lin Jin was, could he be stronger than an immortal?
And now, reality was slapping Yang Jie in the face. Looking out through the blood realm, he saw the immortal who single-handedly subdued his teacher, Ye Yuzhou, the Friar Association's mentors, and Lin Jin's female disciple. Now, he was half-dead and Lin Jin was pointing a finger at his head as he interrogated him about his origins.
This result was too shocking, too unbelievable.
Also, was that giant fire wolf Lin Jin's pet beast?
How could it be so powerful? It had only been a few moments and the immortal was brought back like a dead dog. It seemed like the man couldn't even put up much of a fight.
Was the immortal so weak?
Or was Lin Jin just too strong?
Yang Jie finally understood why the other party would send an immortal. It was because sending anyone else would have been a waste of time.
Moreover, Lin Jin had just killed an immortal.
Since when did immortals become so easy to deal with?
In fact, Yang Jie wasn't the only one who was shocked. Inside the blood realm, unless they were still unconscious, everyone else who witnessed this had the same expression on their faces.
Their eyes widened and their mouths agape, looking dumbfounded.
Among them, there was no lack of people who were familiar with Lin Jin. In the past, they had interacted with him on a daily basis. But now, it was as if they were seeing him for the first time.
Just then, another powerful aura surged toward them from afar.
Yet another immortal.
No.
It might not be just one.
Even with the protection of the blood realm's barrier, Ye Yuzhou and Yang Jie could still feel the presence of several powerful auras. They could feel it even from a thousand feet away. The pressure made it difficult for them to move as if they had fallen into an ice cave and their blood was frozen. "Teacher, this …" Yang Jie said.
"Master, this …" Yang Jie said. Beside him, Ye Yuzhou nodded. "I can feel it too. Given the current situation, there's nothing we can do to help. If we can feel it, Appraiser Lin must have noticed it as well. Don't say anything and just watch. If Appraiser Lin wins, then everything will be fine. But if he loses, none of us will survive."
Ye Yuzhou wasn't exaggerating. This was the truth. They couldn't even reach the edge of this battle. Other than watching, there was nothing they could do.
There was one thing that Ye Yuzhou didn't mention. This time, he could clearly sense that there was more than one immortal. One of them was so strong that it was simply unprecedented.
But now, as he said, there was nothing he could do other than stare at her.
Shang'er was more anxious than anyone else. She really wanted to go out and help, but she was not strong enough.
Outside, Lin Jin had noticed the arrival of a new immortal. However, he had asked all he needed to know. The Hollow Immortal that Xiao Huo was biting was still afraid of death. As long as he was afraid of death, Lin Jin had a way to make him talk.
Now, Lin Jin knew what was going on. He knew who the mastermind was and how the culprit managed to enter Middle Earth.
However, this immortal didn't know anything about this black fog either.
Clearly, this black fog was the real secret.
Just as Lin Jin had guessed, Patriarch Xue Pao was the one behind all this. Not long after Lin Jin left, Patriarch Xue Pao was rescued by the Beast God Cult's shaman. He was the one Lin Jin had cut into two.
As for the Beast God's religion, they had their own heritage and these immortals were from the Beast God's religion. Lin Jin also learned another secret.
The Beast God's religion had existed since the golden age of immortals. But during the great calamity of immortality, they didn't escape into outer space. Instead, they hid inside an immortal artifact called the 'Dark Prison Cage'.
This immortal artifact wasn't crafted by the immortals of the Beast God's religion but obtained from some ancient ruins. No one knew who made it but one thing was for sure, it was a carefree immortal. Immortal artifacts were rare to begin with.
Immortal Weapons and Dharma Treasures were rare to begin with. Even during the golden age of the Immortal Dao, they were still extremely rare. The Ghost Prison Cage that the Beast God Sect obtained was originally a Dharma Treasure that could imprison others. Basically, it would be difficult for anyone who was trapped in it to escape, be it a False Immortal or a True Immortal. Moreover, the unique black fog inside could isolate everything.
However, no one expected this immortal artifact to be used as a refuge.
The black fog could isolate everything, including the senses of Rank 9 immortal devouring beasts. Hence, for the past two thousand years, the immortals of the Beast God's religion had been hiding inside the Dark Prison Cage, not daring to come out.
Someone had come out before but there was no news of them. The immortals inside were even more afraid to come out.
That was until the immortals of the Beast God's religion mastered the method of using the black fog.
The black fog was able to block out the Rank 9 immortal-devouring beast's probing. After confirming this fact, the Beast God religion that had disappeared for more than two thousand years finally returned to the real world. Coincidentally, this happened about a month ago, which was when Lin Jin was out in the wild.
This explained why the Beast God's religion of Grassy Continent was just an empty shell without any actual strength. Hence, it couldn't influence the various kingdoms of Grassy Continent.
But things were different now.
With absolute power, the Beast God's religion was the true ruler of Grassy Continent.
The immortals of the Beast God's religion were ambitious. Perhaps because they had been trapped in the 'Dark Prison Cage' for too long, now that they had the chance to step into the outside world, they immediately began their plan.
First, they wanted to take control of Grassy Continent.
To the immortals of the Beast God's religion, this was their chance to take control of Middle Earth. Although the Beast God's religion wasn't bad in the past, they were suppressed by the other immortal sects. This time, they had a chance to take control of Middle Earth. Grassy Continent was only the first step. They would recruit experts and eradicate dissidents.
It was at this time that the Beast God's religion found Patriarch Xue Pao. With the black fog that could isolate immortal energy, Patriarch Xue Pao was finally able to see the light of day again. Although the immortal's corpse couldn't be extracted immediately, with the black fog around, Patriarch Xue Pao's movements were no longer restricted.
Just as Lin Jin had guessed, the Beast God's religion was targeting him because of Patriarch Xue Pao's instigation.
Of course, the immortals of the Beast God's religion weren't stupid. They couldn't just attack whoever Patriarch Xue Pao wanted to. But when Patriarch Xue Pao said that 'God's stone' was in Lin Jin's hands, the Beast God's religion began to target Lin Jin.
This was Lin Jin's second time hearing the word 'God's stone'. Moreover, it was Patriarch Xue Pao who said it, so there must be a special meaning behind it.
"What is a God's stone?" Lin Jin felt like he should figure this out.
Perhaps he could use this to make the Beast God's religion and Patriarch Xue Pao fight each other. After all, he didn't have any God's stone.
