Why had the Yin Saint suddenly moved?
Could it be that because he had killed too many Yin souls, even the Yin Saint and the Saint could no longer bear it?
Or… could it be that the battle had escalated, and it was the turn of the Saint-level power to make a move?
Ling Han merely sprinted quickly. No matter what the reason was, in the face of Saint-level power, his only option was to flee.
Thankfully, the Phoenix Wings Divine Flight was already very fast in the first place, and added with the fact that he had been struck by the Saint, his speed had increased even further. There was absolutely no need for him to worry about the Yin Saint catching up to him.
Ahead of him, the Venerate Tier-level battle area was already close at hand.
This time, Ling Han did not have the time to bother about his identity being revealed. With a flap of his fiery wings, he did not have the slightest intention of slowing down or concealing himself. Instead, he communicated through divine sense, "Run, the Yin Saint has moved!"
Though there were Venerates from the Imperial Clans here, aside from them, there were also Venerates from a great many other forces.
Thus, Ling Han could ignore the life or death of the Venerates from the Imperial Clans, but he couldn't allow the other Venerates to die with them.
"Ling Han!"
"Yi!"
Seeing Ling Han flit past like a wild horse that had escaped its reins, everyone was extremely shocked. They had not thought that Ling Han would actually appear here.
However, they all shuddered upon hearing this.
The Yin Saint had moved?
Hiss, not good, a major event!
They hurriedly ran after him. At this moment, they all chose to believe Ling Han.
On this kind of matter, they were sure that Ling Han would not speak carelessly.
Immediately, large swathes of Venerates fled as well. At the same time, the members of the Imperial Clans also contacted their own Saints. At this time, they naturally had to ask Saints to come out and suppress the situation.
After Ling Han delivered the news, he immediately tore a rip into space and left.
He could not continue staying here.
When the Saints arrived, he wouldn't be able to leave.
Would the Imperial Clans spare him?
Hehe, wasn't this just a joke?
He had to flee now that the Saints hadn't arrived!
He entered into the Void and continued to use Phoenix Wings Divine Flight to increase his speed.
Half a day later, he finally came out of the Void. Then, he adjusted his position, and descended towards the planet closest to him.
He hurriedly went to investigate the situation.
Sure enough, a large number of Yin Saints entered the battlefield, escalating the scale of this battle. With the powerful push of these Yin Saints, the territories occupied by the Netherworld rapidly expanded. The areas around the Mountain Sea Heaven, such as Purple Gauze Planet and others, had all fallen.
The majority retreated, continuing to build a line of defense, while a great many did not manage to retreat in time. Naturally, they were killed by the Yin souls — even if they were not killed, their physical bodies would be taken, and it would be no different from death.
Ling Han hurriedly made contact with the large black dog and the others. Thankfully, they had not lost any members. Only a few of them had been slightly injured, but it was no big deal.
He breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were still alive, everything was fine.
Ling Han didn't return at the first instant. Instead, he hurriedly went into seclusion.
He had grasped a sliver of inspiration for his breakthrough, so he naturally could not miss it. Otherwise, who knew when he would be able to grasp it again.
Seven days later, he exited seclusion.
He had not broken through to Ten Stars, yet could clearly see a path ahead of him.
Ling Han returned to meet up with the empress and the others.
When everyone saw each other, they all felt fortunate that they had survived a calamity.
"How's the situation now?" Ling Han asked. He had only used the connection device when he had contacted the large black dog and the others. Usually, he would not be using the Galaxy Network, so he was naturally unable to grasp the latest situation.
"The various Imperial Clans and Holy Lands have all mobilized Saints. Even the Imperial Weapons have been moved over, temporarily suppressing the situation."
"Buddha Doga did not appear on our side. However, the Netherworld also didn't send out the Lord of the Blood Sea and the others."
"Thus, we were caught off guard by the Netherworld's concentrated troops. However, now that the Netherworld's battle line has spread out, we also have to face a situation of shortage of manpower."
Everyone was talking at once.
Under the wave of attacks from the Yin Saint's concentrated power, the defensive line of the Living Realm was instantly torn apart, but now, the Netherworld army's advance was also stopped. After all, if the Yin Saint directly entered into the Living Realm, even the Yin Saint's strength would fall drastically.
The Netherworld had to wait, and allow the Yin Qi to expand outwards, so that the Living Realm would continuously transform into the Netherworld. At least, it had to be half-way open, and only then would they be able to proceed to the next step.
Similarly, the Living Realm also had to race against time. Otherwise, starting a battle in a place that was half-Netherworld and half-Living Realm would also be disadvantageous to them.
Thus, one wanted to transform the environment into the Netherworld, while the other wanted to transform it into the Living Realm. This had become the focus of contention.
For the moment, one side would not be able to push the other side out, and the other side would not be able to chase the other side back, so they were stuck in a stalemate.
If there was no stronger power intervening, it was obvious that this stalemate would continue for a very long time.
Ling Han nodded. The situation was temporarily stable. As for how things would develop afterwards, it was actually not up to them to worry. It would depend on how the Master of Yin River and the others would play their cards.
"Yi, your cultivation levels are all improving so quickly!"
Ling Han was slightly surprised. This was because the empress, Hu Niu, and the others had all advanced to the level of Sect Master. Meanwhile, the large black dog, the little azure dragon, and the perverted pig had all reached the level of Nine Stars. They had already caught up to his cultivation level.
Not only that, but even though Ji Wuming and the others had started later and progressed slower, they had all advanced into the True Self Tier by now. Their speed was astonishingly fast.
"Hold on, just how long have I been battling with Yin souls for?"
He only found out after asking for a while. As it turned out, he had actually battled Venerate Tier-level great yin souls for a whole twenty-three years!
Heavens, it had actually taken so long!
Ling Han couldn't help but grit his teeth. After battling for a whole twenty-three years, he finally grasped a sliver of inspiration to break through to Ten Stars.
In terms of absolute lifespan, 23 years wasn't a long time. However, in these 23 years, Ling Han was always hovering on the border between life and death. If he had made a mistake at any step, he would be consigned to eternal damnation.
If it was another person, to say nothing of 23 years, they would not be able to last even 23 days.
—Just let any Sect Master try to withstand Venerate Tier-level attack, and they could become ghosts at any time!
Most importantly, even in such a state, Ling Han had only managed to grasp a sliver of inspiration.
From this, it could be seen just how difficult it was to break through to Ten Stars.
"Since it's all in the past, all of this isn't important anymore. What's important is that I have a chance of breaking through to Ten Stars!"
Ling Han decided to continue his seclusion, to charge up to Ten Stars in a single stroke.
"Little Han, you're actually a Nine Stars Sect Master?" The large black dog and the others found this inconceivable.
With how freakish Ling Han was, he should have long since broken through to Venerate Tier.
Ling Han nodded, anddidn't deny it.
"This isn't good!" the little azure dragon said. "The current Golden Generation has all advanced into the Venerate Tier, and those like Ding Shu and Origin have all broken through to the Venerate Tier. Their battle prowess is extremely terrifying."
Ling Han, whose battle prowess had once reigned supreme among the younger generation, couldn't even squeeze into the top ten now, what more leading the masses. How could this not make people sigh?
Ling Han explained. The fruit of cultivation was trapped by the shackles of heaven and earth, so he was unable to break through to the Fourth Extreme.
This caused everyone to frown. What could they do? What could they do now?
"It's fine," Ling Han said with a smile. "I already have some confidence that I can break through toTen Stars. Worse come to worst, I'll charge up to Twelve Stars, or even Fifteen Stars. One day, I'll be able to break through these shackles!"
Seeing how confident Ling Han was, everyone could only believe him and nod.
