Managing the Immortal Origin Holy Land was indeed not his ambition.

"This matter is not that simple," the True Martial Saint Lord turned his head to glance at Lin Yun and shook his head slightly.

A sigh welled up in his heart.

Why do some people always have such great ambitions?

Being an upper-level Saint Lord was already a considerable strength. It was said that breaking through a universe's New Layered Heaven and absorbing the energy bestowed by the heavens and earth during the breakthrough would make one a Child of Destiny for that universe.

With Langya having absorbed the energy of breaking through the New Layered Heaven in this universe, he would undoubtedly develop well even if he left this universe.

If only Langya had the same mindset as Lin Yun.

Thousands of years ago, he and Langya cultivated under the tutelage of Er Lee in the Immortal Origin Holy Land. Back then, they were both very young, having grown up together. If it wasn't necessary, he truly did not wish to conflict with the other party.

If it weren't for the task entrusted by Er Lee, what would it matter to him if he surrendered control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land to the other?

However, the task given by Er Lee absolutely could not be delayed. He knew that this period was the most critical moment for the task and it likely concerned the real life and death of Er Lee's friend.

"Lin Yun, I have spent thousands of years on Earth, where I have witnessed countless people and the rise and fall of countless forces, all sorts of struggles.

You might not understand that when you are just at the edge of a whirlpool, the right thing to do is to strive against the current with all your might, you must not entertain any thoughts of drifting with the flow; otherwise, by the time you regain the will to resist, you may find yourself unable to escape and inevitably get crushed by the whirlpool," the Saint Lord sighed softly and said.

"You may not wish to target anyone, but others certainly want to target you."

"If you agree to manage the Immortal Origin Holy Land, the True Martial Saint Lord and I can grant you an opportunity from the Immortal Origin Holy Land to break through another realm. But, if you refuse, this chance will go to Langya who just left. If he advances another level, just think about what your situation will be then..." the Saint Lord's eyes calmly looked at Lin Yun.

Upon hearing the Saint Lord's words, Lin Yun's heart jolted fiercely.

Indeed, that Langya Saint Lord had already harbored ill feelings towards him, something he was very aware of. Perhaps, Chu Lee's initial schemes against him were instigated by him.

When his strength was still weak, he was targeted and nearly killed by the summit Super Warriors of the Human Race. Who knows what Langya Saint Lord's next thoughts would be once he took control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land?

Perhaps, given his good performance and potential threat, Langya Saint Lord would target him. How should he face that?

Now, his strength was on par with a mid-level Saint Lord, and he could barely confront an upper-level Saint Lord.

But what if Langya's strength broke through to the Peak Saint Lord realm while he remained at the mid-level? How would he stand a chance? Langya might defeat him with a mere few moves!

Then, he would truly have nowhere to cry!

On the other hand, if he agreed to the terms of the True Martial Saint Lord and the Saint Lord to take control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, he could use the opportunity to break through to the third tier of the Super Warriors. Combined with the Bloodthirsty Sword, it was very possible that his strength could be comparable to an upper-level Saint Lord!

Moreover, as the True Martial Saint Lord had mentioned, if he could learn the method to break through New Layered Heaven and then break the universe's thirty-fourth New Layered Heaven, acquiring the vast energy bestowed by the heavens and earth, he could possibly reach the fourth tier of the Super Warriors right away. At that moment, he might even possess strength comparable to a Peak Saint Lord!

Even if Langya Saint Lord wished to engage him, what fear would he have?

Furthermore, as the energy bestowed by breaking through New Layered Heaven continued to ferment, no matter what means the other party used, they probably would never catch up to him again!

Two possibilities, one negative and one positive; the gap between them was truly enormous!

"Now, if you wish to take control of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, both the True Martial Saint Lord and I will support you. But if you choose to wait until the True Martial Saint Lord leaves, then this opportunity will be gone," the Saint Lord suddenly said.

This statement was just like the principle she had mentioned earlier: if you do not resist when you can, by the time you wish to resist, you may no longer have the chance.

Opportunities are fleeting.

"Alright, I agree," Lin Yun said with a wry smile.

"Good, let's notify them right away to prepare the ceremony..." the True Martial Saint Lord said with a slight smile.

"Ceremony?" Lin Yun was mildly surprised.

Could it be as complex as the coronation ceremonies of ancient emperors?

"Don't worry, it's not too complicated. It's just a matter of informing some of the upper echelons of the Immortal Origin Holy Land to be present and to announce the matter," sensing Lin Yun's thoughts, the True Martial Saint Lord smiled and said.

"However, you will need to wear some formal attire," the Saint Lord nodded and said.

Whoosh!

In the midst of speaking, she waved her hand, and a jade chest appeared before everyone.

Then, as the jade chest opened, a robe in moon-white edged with gold, along with a matching pair of shoes, a golden jade crown, a belt, a jade pendant, and other accessories appeared before everyone, each exuding elegance and clearly very high-level treasures.

"These are..."

Lin Yun stood dumbfounded.

"These are the standard accessories of the master of the Immortal Origin Holy Land, usually worn like this on formal occasions," the Holy Mother said with a smile.

"But I haven't become the master of the Immortal Origin Holy Land yet," Lin Yun said, troubled.

"Isn't this ceremony being held for you? Naturally, you have to wear these!" the Holy Mother said, shaking her head with a chuckle.

"I've already notified everyone, Lin Yun, hurry up and put them on, let's head over!" At that moment, the True Martial Saint Lord looked up, nodded to the crowd with a light smile.

"Alright!"

It really was pushing the duck onto the perch, Lin Yun sweated mentally and could only nod in agreement.

Since all were magical treasures and, moreover, Lin Yun's strength was already at the universe's top echelon, with a wave of his hand, he donned the magical treasures and, after exerting a trace of his power into them, he performed a simple refinement.

Lin Yun's hair had grown long ago and had never been cut short. The golden jade crown perfectly bound his black hair, along with the moon-white robe, and so on, he truly looked like an ancient scholar who had stepped out of a painting.

The right clothes make the man, as the saying goes. Undeniably, after changing into these garments, Lin Yun's entire demeanor became more detached, exuding even more the majestic aura of a leader.

It seems there's a reason why the master of Immortal Origin Holy Land wears such standard accessories on official occasions.

"Wow!"

"That outfit's great!"

"So handsome!"

Xia Qingqing, Lin Mengmeng, and Lianshan saw Lin Yun dressed up like this and could not help expressing their amazement out loud.

"Let's go!" At that moment, the True Martial Saint Lord said with a light smile.

Whoosh!

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a powerful force wrapped around everyone, quickly moving them in a certain direction.

In just an instant, everyone appeared inside a grand hall.

One by one, the Super Warriors were already waiting there.

"Greetings to the Holy Mother! Greetings to the Saint Lord!"

"Greetings to the Holy Mother, greetings to the True Martial Saint Lord!"

Seeing Lin Yun and his group appear, each of the Super Warriors promptly paid their respects to the True Martial Saint Lord and the Holy Mother.

"The strength of these people..."

Lin Yun glanced over them.

Soon, he sensed the strength of each of them.

At the moment, there were roughly one hundred and thirty or forty people in the grand hall, among whom thirty or forty were at the Super Warrior level, and about one hundred were in the later or peak stages of the twelfth level.

Not a single one was at the Saint Lord Realm.

Clearly, that Langya Saint Lord hadn't come.

I wonder if all the high-ranking officials of the Immortal Origin Holy Land have arrived.

Lin Yun thought in silence.

However, the strength he had seen so far had already surprised him.

Because, as far as he knew, Super Warriors were extremely rare. In a twelfth-level Civilization Star Domain, if a power had just one average Super Warrior, it would be considered a super force, renowned throughout the universe with an exalted status.

Those top-tier super forces wouldn't dare boast of how many Super Warriors they possessed. If they had a dozen or so, it was considered formidable. Just like the Human Race's three ultimate super forces, which were said to have only about a dozen Super Warriors.

That the Immortal Origin Holy Land would have so many, how could he not be astonished?
