Starting with an orphanage, I mass-produced peerless empresses.

While the three were still looking at each other in bewilderment, Lin Yun, the culprit, had already left with the Golden Sacred Fruit.

"These three idiots are pretty good at fighting, but they're not very smart."

Lin Yun looked at the golden fruit in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected of a legendary item, I really want to swallow it whole."

This golden sacred fruit seemed to possess some kind of magic, attracting Lin Yun, but reason told him that he couldn't eat it like that.

And if we calm down and think about it, almost all the treasures in this place are guarded by mythical beasts, but how come such a precious golden holy fruit is not?

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly seemed to sense something, abruptly stopped, and frowned as he looked at the ground.

"Wait, this is..."

Without saying a word, Lin Yun dodged backward.

Immediately afterwards, with a deafening roar, the ground where they had just been standing was suddenly torn apart, and a thick, long shadow shot out from it!

An angry roar came from the front!

Lin Yun raised an eyebrow, looking at the impressive black dragon in front of him, which seemed to have gone mad as it attacked.

"A mystical beast comparable to a peak-level emperor..."

Clearly, this guy must be the guardian beast of the Golden Sacred Fruit.

At this moment, the black dragon burrowed underground and was rapidly approaching his location.

The three people under the golden tree nearby also heard the commotion, exchanged a glance, and rushed over together.

As soon as I arrived, I saw Lin Yun and the golden fruit still in his hand!

"The Golden Sacred Fruit, so you stole it?!"

The three men had grim expressions. After all, they had fought tooth and nail to the death, only to have their chicken stolen by a newcomer. Naturally, they were furious.

At the same time, they all recognized Lin Yun, and the Sword Alliance cultivator snorted coldly.

"Hand over the treasure, or you will be killed without mercy!"

However, Lin Yun didn't even look at them, his gaze remained fixed on the ground, and seeing this, all three of them were about to make a move.

"This guy dares to ignore us?!"

But just then, the ground beneath Lin Yun cracked open again!

The enormous black dragon attacked again, seemingly intent on swallowing him whole, but Lin Yun easily dodged it once more.

But this froze the three who were about to make a move.

"This, this is... a peak-level Emperor-level Mystic Beast?!"

The three men's expressions changed slightly. If it were before, they could have killed such a mystical beast with a single slap!

But now, with their cultivation suppressed to the first level of the Emperor realm, this dragon could probably tear them apart with a single claw!

"This is probably the guardian beast of the Golden Sacred Fruit. This is troublesome."

"Why didn't it appear during our fight?"

"In my opinion, they're probably waiting for us to be exhausted so they can take advantage of the situation and devour us whole!"

Now that things have come to this, Lin Yun's theft has ironically saved their lives.

Even so, it doesn't mean they're willing to give up.

Now that the fruit is in Lin Yun's hands, they naturally form a temporary alliance.

"Lin Yun has also been suppressed to the first level of the Emperor Realm. He is no match for this Xuan Beast. Keep a close eye on him and don't let him escape with the items!"

From the first level of the Emperor Realm to the peak of the Emperor Realm, the difference in combat power is more than tenfold, making it impossible to challenge opponents of a higher level!

Therefore, in their view, Lin Yun only had one choice: to escape, to escape at all costs!

All they need to do is intercept them halfway!

Even the best-case scenario would be for the dragon to severely injure Lin Yun, at which point they could simply steal the dragon's loot!

Lin Yun noticed their approach but ignored them, his attention remaining focused on the dragon ahead.

"At this speed, I might not be able to outrun it..."

After all, none of his talents could amplify speed, so he really still had to...

A cultivator from the Heavenly Demon Palace, not far away, suddenly frowned.

"Wait a minute, isn't this guy planning to run away?"

The three looked in the direction of the sound and found Lin Yun confronting the dragon, showing no intention of fleeing.

Instead, he put away the golden holy fruit and took out a long sword.

"Judging from this, they actually intend to fight that dragon?"

"With his strength, can he break through this dragon's defenses?"

"He's insane, this guy must be insane!"

The three men had grim expressions, not so much concerned about Lin Yun's safety.

Instead, they were worried that if Lin Yun were swallowed by the dragon, the Golden Sacred Fruit would be completely out of their reach!

Even the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hey you over there, run! You can't beat that mystical beast!"

Unfortunately, Lin Yun had no intention of paying him any attention.

His gaze was fixed on the black dragon, which was about to burrow back into the ground and launch another attack.

A moment later, he sensed the dragon approaching, and this time, he did not simply dodge!

The dragon that pounced out at this moment was shrouded in black mist, which enveloped the surrounding area. A strong sense of oppression made people's souls tremble!

Its blood-red eyes, filled with murderous intent, were locked onto Lin Yun as it roared and pounced on him!

"Very good, this is the time we've been waiting for!"

Lin Yun narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.

He gathered all his profound energy into the sword, releasing a blazing sword aura. At this moment, he seemed to have merged with heaven and earth!

As he slashed with his sword, the space seemed to be cut open wherever he passed, leaving a tearing mark, and he went straight for the dragon!

"That guy, what a powerful sword strike..."

"But why do I feel that it might not be able to harm that dragon?"

"Indeed, this is still a bit lacking compared to the peak of the Emperor realm..."

The three men's gazes narrowed slightly. For someone with the cultivation level of a first-level emperor, the power of his sword strike was simply too heaven-defying!

But the beast opposite him was a mystical beast nine minor realms higher than him.

However, what happened next was too shocking. When Lin Yun's sword energy landed on the dragon, its power seemed to suddenly increase dozens of times!

In an instant, the attack condensed by the black dragon was blasted away.

Then it let out a miserable howl, its huge body was torn apart by the sword energy, and suddenly exploded into a rain of blood pouring down!

In an instant, there was no other sound except for the rain of blood falling.

The three people in the distance opened their mouths, staring in disbelief at Lin Yun, who had killed the dragon with a single sword strike.

"What the hell, how is this possible?!"

They couldn't understand why Lin Yun's attack had suddenly increased so much in power.

The reason is actually quite simple: too many talents and too much buff.

So much so that even a casual sword strike can unleash power far beyond what is ordinary!

After dealing with the black dragon, Lin Yun glanced at the three people in the distance and smiled.

"Is there anything else you three wanted to see me about?"

Upon hearing this, the three looked grim and exchanged glances.

"Hey, you from the Heavenly Demon Palace, didn't you say who discovered whom? Aren't you going to take it back?"

"Get lost! Why don't you go?"

The corpses of the peak-level Xuan Beasts next to them weren't even cold yet; they didn't want to be the next ones.

In their view, only their own team could handle Lin Yun's terrifying strength.

"You can argue about it all you want, but I don't want it."

The cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect were quite decisive; they simply snorted coldly and gave up, leaving.

He could still distinguish between murder for treasure and courting death.

The cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Palace also gave up, but before leaving, they glared at Lin Yun with cold eyes.

As for the Sword Alliance cultivators, they spoke coldly to Lin Yun.

"Your methods are truly impressive, but I hope you remember that what our Sword Alliance has its eye on is not so easy to obtain!"

After exchanging harsh words, he quickly made his escape, seemingly afraid that Lin Yun would also attack him.

Lin Yun couldn't help but chuckle at this.

"These guys are really good at making threats."

However, this is not important anymore.

The key point is that my own child will soon have access to good medicine!

After confirming that there were no other problems, Lin Yun set off and continued towards the tower.

Strangely enough, this secret realm also has day and night. As we got closer to the tower, the sky gradually darkened.

And you can clearly feel that after nightfall, a white mist rises from the forest.

And the numerous mystical beasts within this sea of ​​trees also began to stir.

During this time, Lin Yun even encountered a beast tide. If he hadn't been invincible in defense, he would have been devoured by the large number of mystical beasts.

If it were just a matter of increased danger, that would be fine. The key issue is that the white mist seems to have a special effect, which can greatly suppress the perception of Xuan Qi. Even if Xuan Qi light is released, it can only illuminate a few meters away.

This caused Lin Yun to wander around in the woods several times.

"That Empress Chi Yuan is so boring, always coming up with so many gimmicks..."

Lin Yun shook his head; clearly, Empress Chi Yuan did not want them to continue their operations that night.

Although I really want to complain, I can only find a safe place to rest for now.

As he was searching, he suddenly sensed something and looked sharply into the darkness behind him.

"who?!"

Just as his Xuan Qi perception began to react, Lin Yun also heard light footsteps behind him.

Lin Yun frowned, then immediately entered battle mode. Then, a white figure emerged from the mist.

When they saw each other, they were both stunned.

"Dean Lin?"

"Miss Lu?"

That's right, the white-clad figure we encountered was none other than Lu Xian'er, who was on the same team this time!

"This is wonderful! I never expected to run into you again!"

Lu Xian'er was overjoyed, but also relieved.

However, at this moment, her situation was far more disheveled than Lin Yun's.

Judging from the numerous severe wounds on his body and his weak breathing, it was clear that he had just been through a fierce battle.

But after seeing Lin Yun, she felt a strange sense of security...
