On top of the main peak, the muscular man checked out Ling Xian. Other than shock in his eyes, there was helplessness.
Shock at his powerfulness and helplessness at his powerfulness.
If this was anyone else, the man would've slapped them in the face for daring to humiliate the Extreme Sect. But against Ling Xian, he didn't dare and he couldn't.
Therefore, he looked at Ling Xian helplessly, "Young man, do you not know how to save some face for the Extreme Sect? You should've lost one round. "
"I wasn't sure if I would see you again if I lost. So, I had to not lose one round." Ling Xian shrugged and looked innocent.
"Then you should've at least puked out some blood. You aren't even hurt. How insane."
The muscular man was about to cry. If Ling Xian was hurt and puked out blood, then the Extreme Sect would at least have a cover. But he was unharmed.
If this gets out of everyone's mouth, they would say the Extreme Sect was too useless and couldn't even hurt Ling Xian.
"You were the one who set the rules. There is no need for me to get hurt." Ling Xian looked at the muscular man like he was looking at an idiot. He had no intention of hurting himself.
"Who would've thought you would be so insane? Even the rare genius of the Extreme Sect lost to you."
The muscular man wanted to cry but no tears came out. He wanted to hang the guard up and beat him up a hundred times.
"I didn't expect this either." Ling Xian shook his head with a smile. He truly didn't think he could defeat all the powerhouses of the Extreme Sect.
It wasn't that the Extreme Sect was too weak, it was that he was too strong.
Not only was he extremely close to the seventh level, but he was also at the peak of it. He was undefeatable.
"Talking about this with you is too much of a blow to my confidence."
The muscular man sighed and wisely changed the topic, "Tell me why you are here."
"I have two reasons. One is to break through to the seventh level. The second is to enter the Lang Ya House." Ling Xian got straight to the point.
The muscular man frowned, "Let me ask you something first. Are you looking for a way to improve your physique?"
"That's right. I am extremely close to the seventh level. All I need is an opportunity."
Ling Xian nodded softly and grinned, "I have heard of the Extreme Sect. I think you have the ability to help me break through to the seventh level."
"I do, but …" The muscular man's brows were tightly locked together and he didn't finish his sentence.
"Conditions can be discussed. As long as the Extreme Sect has a way, I will give you a satisfactory price."
Ling Xian faintly grinned. He had this much confidence. Ignoring all the treasures, the miscellaneous items in his storage pouch were already priceless.
"A satisfactory price …" The muscular man fell into deep thought.
If it was someone else, he would have flatly refused and closed the door to send them off. But against Ling Xian, he could not do that.
Although he had embarrassed the Extreme Sect, it was not his fault. Through this matter, he had already revealed his strength and potential, so how could the man refuse him?
"Let's put this topic aside for now and talk about your second goal."
The muscular man asked, "You want to enter the Langya Grotto-heaven?"
"That's right. I want to go inside and enlighten myself. The time is uncertain. I hope the Supreme Headmaster agrees." Ling Xian faintly grinned and did not mention the Fruit of Dao.
"I can agree to both of these goals, but you have to pay the corresponding price." The muscular man thought for a moment and said.
"Headmaster, please speak your mind. As long as it's not too much, we can negotiate." Ling Xian left some leeway.
The muscular man smiled, "My conditions are not too much. I just want you to promise me one thing."
"What kind of promise?" Ling Xian frowned.
"When the Extreme Sect is in trouble, I want you to lend me a hand."
The muscular man erased his smile, "This request is not too much. I only need to say the word."
"It really is only a word. But the responsibility is heavier than a thousand pounds."
Ling Xian lost his composure and chuckled. Before he can fulfill his promise, promises are light. But when the time comes, they are as heavy as a mountain.
He would rather pay a few hundred million spiritual stones than make a promise.
"That is true. But you only have two choices. Either you leave, or you agree."
"The Extreme Sect cannot claim to be as wealthy as a nation, but we are wealthy and do not lack what you have."
"What I value is your potential and your promise."
The muscular man smiled, "Now, it's your turn to make the decision. Are you going to agree or not?"
"Other than saying yes, I don't have any other choice."
Ling Xian softly smiled. Even if the muscular man doesn't want to make a promise, because of the fact that the Extreme Sect has helped him before, if something happens to the Extreme Sect, Ling Xian cannot just stand by and watch.
"Very well. Then this deal is done." The muscular man smiled. His smile was bright.
To him, Ling Xian was the future powerhouse. To be able to receive his promise was the same as gaining another layer of support.
"I cannot believe one word of mine is worth tens of thousands of gold." Ling Xian exclaimed. He didn't think he would reach such heights.
"It's worth more than tens of thousands of gold. If I don't make a promise, you will have to pay at least 500 million spiritual stones." The muscular man smiled.
"500 million … sure is a lot." Ling Xian exclaimed.
Merely a promise was worth 500 million spiritual stones. This, without a doubt, proved how extraordinary he was today.
"Haha, isn't this feeling good? One promise from me is not worth 500 million spiritual stones. "The muscular man laughed brightly.
"Not bad." Ling Xian softly grinned, "Let my physique breakthrough to the seventh level first."
"Okay, follow me." The muscular man nodded. Flapping around his sleeve, he carried Ling Xian across the sky.
After a few breaths, the two of them landed before a dense forest.
Instantly, Ling Xian frowned and his eyes flickered with seriousness.
This was all because he felt a terrifying aura from within the forest. Even he felt pressured.
"The Extreme Sect only has one method to help a living being breakthrough to the seventh level. It is a method of self-torture."
"This place is called the Forest of Geng Swords. However, the people of the Extreme Sect prefer to call it the Forest of Self-Torture."
"Just like the name suggests, the forest is filled with Geng Swords. Every single one of them has the power of the beginning stage of the seventh level."
The muscular man paused and continued.
"With a physique at the peak of the sixth level, one cannot handle this amount of power. However, it is not enough to kill."
"Every single Geng Sword has the ability to refine the body. After it enters the body, it increases its strength."
"When it reaches a certain point, it will naturally break through to the seventh level."
"However, even though this method will definitely succeed, it may not last until it succeeds. The process is far too painful. Even if one's heart is as hard as steel, it is hard to handle. "
"So before you enter, you better think carefully before you make a decision."
The muscular man's expression was serious as he spoke in a low voice.
"That's true. To break through, one has to withstand at least a few hundred attacks."
Ling Xian bitterly smiled. Even though he hasn't entered yet, based on the man's description, he knew that it will be a painful torture.
Just thinking about it made his scalp numb. However, he had no choice.
The seventh level of the physique was a hurdle he had to overcome. No matter how difficult it was, he cannot retreat.
"Since I am here, why should I retreat?"
Ling Xian faintly smiled. His demeanor was unparalleled and bright.
