A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 183

Chapter 183: Confronting the Immortal Sovereign, One Punch to Annihilate!

“Indeed, the Lin Family has long been prepared.”

Meanwhile, on Wu Yifan’s side, when they took action again, both he and Duan De appeared much more cautious. With the help of the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl, they carefully surveyed the area around the target’s tomb for a long time until they finally discovered a hidden Intermediate Stage Immortal Sovereign nearby.

Sensing the opponent’s level, Duan De turned to Wu Yifan with a serious expression and asked, “Holy Son, do you have the confidence to deal with him?”

“It’s not a big problem; I can take him down in one move. However, if I do, it will definitely attract the attention of other Lin Family experts. So, we must resolve things here quickly, first understanding the situation inside, ensuring we can take away what’s inside the tomb at the fastest speed after we act.”

Wu Yifan nodded in agreement. His Ancient Sacred Body at the twelfth level was powerful enough to easily deal with an Immortal Sovereign, but if the commotion here attracted the attention of the Lin Family’s Immortal Venerables, it could lead to an inestimable amount of trouble if they were bogged down.

Hearing this, Duan De also nodded. The two then used the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl to enter the tomb and, after clarifying the situation inside, prepared to take action.

“Strange, why do I keep feeling an ominous sensation?”

Lin Zhenying felt somewhat surprised. The family had sent him to guard the Ancestor’s tomb for some time, and he didn’t believe anything dangerous would happen. Although the recent events had made the family’s members anxious, those two little thieves had merely escaped from the hands of an Immortal King.

If they faced him, the worst they could do was run away, could they really destroy him?

Thinking this, Lin Zhenying calmed his mind, chuckled, and shook his head.

But the next moment, he felt an icy chill behind him. Without thinking further, he summoned his spear and thrust it backward.

Wu Yifan didn’t expect the opponent’s reaction to be so quick, but he merely sidestepped slightly to avoid the attack and then directly punched the opponent.

The terrifying power instantly made the opponent disappear in an instant, killed outright.

At the moment the opponent died, Lin Tian’en in the Lin Family couldn’t continue his closed-door training any longer and said with an extremely grim expression, “Not good, something has happened!”

Almost simultaneously, Wu Yifan and Duan De charged into the tomb, sweeping through the burial items, not even sparing the clothing. After all, the garments worn by an Immortal Sovereign could not possibly be ordinary items; someone would definitely want those.

As the saying goes, time waits for no one. In just a few seconds, Wu Yifan and Duan De completely cleared the entire tomb and then quickly escaped the scene.

However, just a few seconds after they left, a terrifying aura enveloped the area around the tomb, unmistakably belonging to Lin Tian’en, who had arrived at lightning speed.

However, even with Lin Tian’en’s extraordinary speed, he was unable to intercept Wu Yifan and Duan De.

After leaving the Lin Family Ancestor’s tomb, Wu Yifan activated the Fate Concealing Mystic Pearl to obscure their trail, making it impossible for even Lin Tian’en to determine their whereabouts.

“Damn it, these two little thieves have reached a level capable of competing with the Immortal Sovereign so quickly?”

Lin Tian’en’s expression darkened like a pot, clearly shocked that Wu Yifan and Duan De could kill an Immortal Sovereign in such a short time. Although the element of surprise played a significant role, it was evident that Wu Yifan and Duan De were truly exceptional.

This made Lin Tian’en begin to worry faintly; his son had mentioned that he could easily kill them on their first encounter, yet within less than a century they had reached the point of killing an Immortal Sovereign. If they were given another thousand or ten thousand years, would he even stand a chance against them?

Thinking this, Lin Tian’en took a deep breath and quickly returned to the Lin Family to convene a family meeting.

As news from Lin Tian’en spread, the upper echelons of the Lin Family gathered in the clan’s great hall. Their expressions were extremely grim, clearly aware of the earlier incident.

“Everyone, you must already know that the descendants of the Duan Family have reached the level of killing an Immortal Sovereign in such a short time. If we give them a little more time, it is likely that the Lin Family will no longer have any opportunity.”

“The treasure that allowed them to break through to a level matching the Immortal Sovereign in such a brief period; if we in the Lin Family could obtain it, it might enable us to nurture an Immortal Emperor.”

“Therefore, I plan to request Rufeng Pavilion to deduce the locations of those two youngsters for us. I ask, who is in favor and who is against this?”

With that, Lin Tian’en stood up and looked at the high-ranking members of the Lin Family, his tone firmly non-committal.

However, Lin Tianyu and Lin Tianqin stood up in unison and said, “Absolutely not! We have very little information about those two thieves; if we rashly ask Rufeng Pavilion to deduce their whereabouts, the cost could be beyond what our Lin Family can bear.”

“What does ‘beyond what we can bear’ matter? Do not forget, we are now in a life-and-death battle with them. If we do not eliminate them before they grow stronger, the Lin Family will undoubtedly be the ones who perish!”

Lin Tian’en stood up, his tone filled with anger.

Seeing this, Lin Tianyu and Lin Tianqin hesitated for just a moment before agreeing. Indeed, it was a life-and-death situation. While they could still kill the Immortal Sovereign, waiting until their opponent could kill an Immortal Venerable would put the Lin Family in grave danger.

Once everyone agreed, Lin Tian’en stood up, went to the family treasury to gather sufficient resources, and then set off toward Rufeng Pavilion in the Central Region.

At that moment, Wu Yifan and the others were still unaware that Lin Tian’en had headed toward Rufeng Pavilion, as they were contemplating their next course of action.

“Holy Son, what should our next step be?”

Duan De looked at Wu Yifan with eyes full of admiration, while Wu Yifan said without hesitation, “We should strike while the iron is hot and rob a few more tombs of the Lin Family Ancestors, then we can lay low and develop our strength. Otherwise, given the situation with the Lin Family, the next arrangement will be a powerful Immortal Venerable!”

“Alright, Holy Son, I’ll follow your lead!” Duan De nodded in agreement without hesitation.

The two of them then hurried toward the location of the next Lin Family Ancestor’s tomb. Meanwhile, Lin Xukun was stationed nearby with ten powerful Immortal Sovereigns and an Immortal Venerable to guard the area around that tomb.

As for the other two Immortal Venerables, they had been recalled to the Lin Family, allegedly for urgent matters.

At this moment, however, Lin Xukun inexplicably shivered, as if something very bad was about to happen.
