"Ling Xian, hand over the Soaring Key!"
"Hurry up and hand it over so we don't waste each other's time."
"I will give you the time it takes for an incense to burn to think about it. After that, don't blame me for making a move."
Many powerhouses descended and unleashed their Qi. They had no intention of respecting Ling Xian at all.
Their words were extremely rude. They were obviously asking for someone else's item, yet they spoke as if it belonged to them.
This made Ling Xian's expression turn cold. His gaze paused on the most arrogant ones and he said softly, "Everyone, aren't you crossing the line by saying this right off the bat?"
"I don't have time to waste with you. I don't care if you are crossing the line or being rude, just hand over the Soaring Key!"
"That's right. You have no right to negotiate with me. Hand it over and I'll spare you some physical pain."
"Hehe, what do you mean crossing the line? Before the bigger picture, you can only compromise. You have no way to resist! "
Everyone spoke again. Their words were even more rude and they didn't think much of Ling Xian.
"It seems like you are treating me like a soft persimmon." Ling Xian's expression was dark as anger burned in his chest.
The Soaring Key belonged to him. Yet these people were demanding it from him. Who wouldn't be angry?
Even though he had predicted that he would be threatened, compared to everyone in the world, he was so insignificant. It was reasonable for him to be threatened.
However, he didn't think some people would be so rude and not give him any face. This made him furious and he suddenly didn't want to hand over the Soaring Key.
However, this thought only lasted for a second before he dismissed it.
If he doesn't hand it over, then he would be placing himself on the opposite side of the bigger picture. The only result would be him getting crushed by everyone.
Plus, handing it over was beneficial for him.
Since he felt like the Soaring Door was very eerie, then why not let these people test it out for him?
This was the best of both worlds. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had to be patient today.
"I sure want to see if you can break through the sky and ascend!" Ling Xian coldly snickered and suppressed the anger in his chest.
The bigger picture had been set. He had to be patient. Or else he would become the enemy of the entire world.
This was something that everyone was very clear about.
This was why some people were so arrogant and didn't think anything of Ling Xian.
"The opportunity to become an Immortal is right in front of us. Anyone who stands in our way will die. If you don't want to die, hand it over!"
"If you speak any more nonsense, don't blame me for being merciless and sending you on your way."
"In front of the big picture, you are just an insignificant ant. If you know what's good for you, hurry up and hand over the key. My patience is limited."
Those people continued to clamor, putting on a haughty expression that was full of disdain.
This made Ling Xian even angrier, but he suppressed it and did not explode.
However, he had already sentenced them to death in his heart. As long as he had the chance, he would definitely kill them!
"Good, very good."
Ling Xian suppressed his anger and took out an ancient key from his storage pouch. He tossed it to everyone.
Immediately, everyone began to pant as they reached out to grab the Ascension Key.
Boom!
Space exploded into pieces. Everyone fought each other, and a chaotic battle actually broke out because of their selfishness.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Everyone had their own selfish motives. They all wanted to grasp the key to increase their chances of becoming an immortal. Therefore, it was reasonable for a chaotic battle to break out.
This made Ling Xian smile. He silently retreated hundreds of meters away, not wanting to get involved in the battle.
The Ascension Key was a treasure, but under the circumstance that everyone in the world knew about it, it was a hot potato. No one could gain anything from it.
He had already gotten rid of this hot potato. What happened next had nothing to do with him.
"It looks like you are not that angry." Thieving the World's eyes flashed with strangeness.
"There is no need to be angry. Giving up the Ascension Key may not be a bad thing."
Ling Xian's eyes flashed with killer's intent, "But I must kill these people."
"But what if they ascend?" Thieving the World teased.
"Then they will be lucky."
Ling Xian's expression was cold, "No matter what happens after they open the Door of Ascension, as long as they are still in this world, I will use their blood to wash away the humiliation I suffered today."
"Of that, I have no doubt."
Thieving the World nodded and probed, "You seem to know something."
"You are wrong. I don't know anything." Ling Xian smiled and didn't want to say more.
At this, Thieving the World didn't ask any more questions.
At this time, the chaotic situation had been stabilized by a highly respected powerhouse. Then, he led the crowd towards Zhulu Mountain.
The key was now in his hands. Next, it was time to open the Door of Ascension.
"I will follow them. Maybe I will be the first to ascend." Thieving the World teased and turned into a silhouette before following.
"Become an immortal …"
Staring at the silhouettes that were getting further and further away, Ling Xian squinted his eyes and mumbled, "Such tempting words. But, is it to become an immortal for eternity or to fall into hell?"
Then, he turned around and returned to his cottage.
He no longer needed to worry about the Door of Ascension. There were countless people who would scout out the path for him. Therefore, he only needed to watch from behind.
"You all thought you forced me to give up the key. You don't know that I am also using you."
Grinning, Ling Xian no longer thought about this. He took out the Marrow of the Real Dragon from his storage pouch and planned on increasing his capabilities.
This item was a rare treasure that could change a living being's body. It was the same as experiencing nirvana. Every time the nirvana happened, one's capabilities would increase.
When the Door of Ascension appeared, Ling Xian's cultivation level reached the peak of the intermediate stage of the Blending Realm because of the presence of immortal energy. He was only one step away from the intermediate stage.
Therefore, he decided to use the Marrow of the Real Dragon to break through to the intermediate stage.
"Let's begin. Don't waste this opportunity."
Ling Xian wiped off his smile and used his Qi to dissolve the Marrow of the Real Dragon. Then, he absorbed it into his body.
He didn't inhale it through his mouth, but through all of his pores.
Instantly, the Marrow of the Real Dragon entered his body and flowed through his organs and meridians.
Then, this item began to take effect. As much as Ling Xian felt comfortable, he also felt a heart-wrenching pain.
This was a very contradictory feeling. But when used to cleanse one's meridians, it was normal.
After all, he was cleaning out the impurities in his body. Of course he would feel pain. But after the cleansing, he would feel comfortable.
Just like that, Ling Xian felt both pain and happiness as he accepted the cleansing of the Marrow of the Real Dragon and waited for the moment of his breakthrough.
Time passed by little by little.
Three days later, black matter poured out of Ling Xian's pores. It was the impurities in his body.
After the impurities were expelled, his Qi strengthened. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the bottleneck and reached the intermediate stage of the Blending Realm!
"Not bad, I have achieved it."
Ling Xian opened his eyes and felt his strength increase by multiple folds. He revealed a joyous smile.
It's been less than a year since he broke through to the sixth level. To breakthrough again in such a short period of time was an extremely difficult task.
Yet he did it. Why wouldn't he be happy?
However, the two worlds fell into silence.
