"The order to capture me and my portrait were issued without warning from the headquarters of the Dongluo Sect in the Vermilion Bird planetary domain eleven years ago … Every branch of the Dongluo Sect in the Vermilion Bird planetary domain received the portrait and the order to capture me …"
This was the only piece of information that Ling Dong had found about himself after he had searched the soul of You Tiansheng, the sect master of the Woodworm Realm's Dongluo Sect, and sifted through the information he had obtained.
On the surface, Ling Dong still didn't have any clues. This was because Ling Dong was very clear that before the Dongluo Sect headquarters had issued his portrait and the order to capture him, Ling Dong had never even heard of the Dongluo Sect, let alone come into contact with them. How could he have formed an enmity with them?
What confused Ling Dong even more was that eleven years ago, Ling Dong's whereabouts were limited to the Heavenly Dipper Continent. The Dongluo Sect headquarters was located in the Vermilion Bird Realm, which was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the Heavenly Dipper Continent. How could they have obtained a portrait of Ling Dong? An identical portrait?
This caused Ling Dong, who had just received this piece of information, to be extremely puzzled.
However, Ling Dong immediately noticed a very special piece of information contained within the text: eleven years ago!
When the Dongluo Sect headquarters had issued the order to capture Ling Dong eleven years ago, Ling Dong didn't know. However, what Ling Dong had been doing eleven years ago, Ling Dong knew best.
Everything that had happened eleven years ago had involved Ling Dong's life and death. However, the most bizarre and dangerous thing had happened when Ling Dong had engaged in a life and death battle with the void incarnation of a powerful existence called Jin Chen after the three great sects had attacked.
At the time, Ling Dong had relied on the power of the Star-Controlling Ring to kill Jin Chen's void incarnation, but he had also been implanted with a purple origin brand.
Although this problem had been resolved later on, Ling Dong had a vague feeling that the mystery of the portrait's capture had something to do with Jin Chen. This was because that battle had been the only time Ling Dong had faced off against an expert from the outside world on the Heavenly Dipper Continent. Or rather, he had made an appearance.
"If all of this was really caused by Jin Chen, then it's fundamentally related to the Star-Controlling Ring?" After pondering for a while, Ling Dong suddenly helplessly discovered that after going one round, the matter still returned to the Star Controlling Ring.
With this discovery, not only was Ling Dong not afraid at all, he even had a trace of anticipation.
"If all of this was really caused by Jin Chen, who had persevered for more than ten years to hunt me down, or to search for the whereabouts of the Star-Controlling Ring, then it might be related to another amazing Divine Ability of the Star-Controlling Ring recorded in the inheritance of the Star Demon. Maybe …" Ling Dong revealed a complicated expression.
Of course, the premise of all this was that Ling Dong had not lost any important information when he searched You Tiansheng's soul this time. If he had lost some important information, then Ling Dong's current inference would have to be reconsidered.
"Boss, did you get anything?" Seeing that Ling Dong's eyes had cleared up after searching You Tiansheng's soul, Shi Qianbi asked.
"There's one thing, but it's very vague. I think that their ambush should have something to do with me seizing their Jinluo Hall!" Ling Dong shook his head. In the end, he added, "However, I think this time, Constellation Lord's Mansion should be rich!"
Under Shi Qianbi's astonished gaze, Ling Dong led the way, followed by Deputy Commander Du and a group of warriors. According to the information that Ling Dong had obtained from You Tiansheng's soul, he had unexpectedly discovered that there was a treasure trove in Dongluo Valley. It mainly contained Reiki.
However, although the number of Reiki in the Dongluo Sect's treasure trove was huge, it was nothing to Ling Dong now. Most importantly, the Dongluo Sect's treasure trove contained a jade talisman that recorded the organizational structure of the entire Jinluo Hall and its members.
Previously, Ling Dong had used the Inspection Golden Token to ask Commander Guan to search only the members of the Jinluo Hall that were known to the world. The rest, including information collection, price information, logistics, and so on, were independent.
Now that he had obtained this jade talisman, he only needed to find a few core members and a complete Jinluo Hall that could lay golden eggs would fall into the hands of Ling Dong and Constellation Lord's Mansion. That was why Ling Dong had told Shi Qianbi this.
When Ling Dong and Shi Qianbi reappeared in Qinggu City, it was already a day later.
After settling matters in the Dongluo Sect, Ling Dong and Shi Qianbi hurried over to Qinggu City. "Qianbi, I'll leave those matters to you. I'll have to trouble you to pass on a message to the Inspector. Due to the urgency of the situation, I won't be able to personally report to him."
In addition to Ling Dong, Shi Qianbi also had to come to Qinggu City to oversee the handling of the Jinluo Hall that was under the Dongluo Sect's name. Of course, there was an extremely official explanation as to how it would be handled. However, in reality, it would be handled by Ling Dong.
However, it wouldn't be handled by Ling Dong himself. Instead, it would be handled by Head Shopkeeper Yin Lizhi, who was appointed by Ling Dong. According to Di Nankun, it would be fine if only a few of them knew about Big Boss Ling Dong. There was no need to publicize it.
"Don't worry, Boss! Actually, killing a Celestial Official isn't a big deal. After all, the Dongluo Sect has already been destroyed. Master will be fine! "Shi Qianbi said.
Since they were about to part ways, Ling Dong took the initiative to tell them about how he had killed Big Dipper Celestial Official You Qianjun. Of course, there was a bit of subtlety involved.
This could be considered another thing that Ling Dong would do for the Big Dipper Continent before he left. At least with a Celestial Official, there would be someone to protect the Big Dipper Continent. If something big happened, they would be able to protect the Big Dipper Continent.
"That's great!" Ling Dong nodded with a smile. "Then we'll part ways here. You should do what you want to do as soon as possible!"
"You too! Boss, be careful. I'll be waiting for you at the Constellation Heavenly Monarch's Mansion! "After saying that, Shi Qianbi turned around and led his guards to the Heavenly Monarch's Courtyard in Clear Ancient City.
After seeing Shi Qianbi leave, Ling Dong determined the direction and flew towards the Clear Ancient City Spiritual Academy.
Clear Ancient City, Spiritual Academy Number 359.
"Dong 'er, you're back!" A powerful aura suddenly appeared in the academy, startling Guan Xingzi and Yang Cheng, who were cultivating.
Yang Cheng, who had rushed out of the house, saw Ling Dong and was overjoyed. "Yang Cheng greets Master Ling Dong …" But before he could finish his sentence, Yang Cheng's voice suddenly stopped as he looked at Ling Dong in shock.
Similarly, the joy on Guan Xingzi's face froze. He pointed at Ling Dong and was tongue-tied, as if something was stuck in his throat. He couldn't say anything for a long time.
"Ling Dong greets the Old Ancestor!" Even though Guan Xingzi had requested for Ling Dong to address him as Junior Brother, Ling Dong still had to follow the etiquette every time he saw Guan Xingzi.
"Senior Brother Ling, you, you, you broke through to the Qui Star Realm?" Yang Cheng's reaction was the quickest. He pointed at Ling Dong, his heart filled with shock.
If there was one person in the Wood Puppet World who had witnessed Ling Dong's miraculous growth, that person would be Yang Cheng.
From the moment Ling Dong ascended to the Wood Puppet World, Yang Cheng had known Ling Dong. And now, it could be said that Yang Cheng was a witness to Ling Dong's miraculous breakthrough!
His lips trembling, Yang Cheng started counting with his fingers. "One, two … four and a half years. In less than five years, you broke through to the Qui Star Realm from the First Level Transforming Star Realm. Senior Brother Ling, you are definitely the most talented martial artist in the history of the Wood Puppet World."
Seeing Yang Cheng counting with his fingers, the shocked Guan Xingzi's face finally turned into a trace of self-mockery and some other complex emotions. "Four and a half years, ah, to break through from the First Level Transforming Star Realm to the Qui Star Realm. What a pity, it took me twelve years to break through from the Second Level to the Eighth Level!"
Hearing Guan Xingzi's shock, Yang Cheng acted as if he had been wronged. He stretched out four fingers and sighed. "Senior Brother Guan Xingzi, actually, you can be considered a genius. But compared to Senior Brother Ling …" Yang Cheng shook his head. Clearly, Ling Dong's cultivation speed was simply indescribable.
"Look at me. If I were to be compared to you, then I would be miserable. Miserable to the point of wanting to hang myself! Forty years, I used forty years to cultivate from the First Level Transforming Star Realm to the Eighth Level. These last few levels of cultivation were all thanks to Senior Brother Ling's help! Senior Brother Ling, on the other hand, only used four and a half years to break through from the First Level Transforming Star Realm to the Qui Star Realm! "
Hearing Yang Cheng's words, Guan Xingzi bitterly smiled again. "Indeed, comparisons are odious." But immediately, a trace of pride appeared on Guan Xingzi's face. "What this old man is most proud of is the good karma I formed with Ling Dong back in the Lower Realm. Otherwise, how could this old man have a share in the Spiritual Academy? How could I have enough pills to take? Not to mention my current cultivation! "
As he spoke, Guan Xingzi looked back. To be honest, if it weren't for the Spiritual Academy and Ling Dong's orders, Shopkeeper Yin Lizhi wouldn't have sent him cultivation pills every ten days. This allowed his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds in the past two years. Otherwise, his cultivation wouldn't even have reached the Seventh Level Transforming Star Realm.
"Ancestor, Junior Brother Yang, I actually want to say that my true cultivation is …" At this time, Ling Dong was a bit hesitant. They were already so shocked. Wouldn't it be too much to tell them the truth?
However, Ling Dong had no choice but to do so. This was because Ling Dong needed this shock to pave the way for him.
"What, could it be that you're about to break through to the First Level of the Qui Star Realm?" Guan Xingzi was extremely shocked when he heard Ling Dong's words.
"No …" Ling Dong's lips curled into a bitter smile. "Actually, my cultivation base is already at the peak of the Qui Star realm …"
"Peak of the Qui Star Realm?" Hearing these words, Yang Cheng subconsciously dug his ears. Instinctively, he thought that he might have heard wrongly.
"Peak of the Qui Star Realm? Dong Er, you're saying that your cultivation has reached the peak of the Qui Star Realm? Did I hear wrongly?" Guan Xingzi's reaction was exactly the same as Yang Cheng's.
Seeing Guan Xingzi and Yang Cheng's reaction, Ling Dong knew that this achievement was simply too shocking. However, in order to pave the way, he could only shock the two in front of him until they were dizzy.
"Ancestor, you didn't hear wrongly. My cultivation is indeed at the peak of the Qui Star Realm!" Ling Dong used an extremely slow speed to affirm.
The two were immediately petrified.
