Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

528. True Monarch Arrives!

With Lin Fei's fearsome reputation preceding him, virtually all the powerful entities, be they Martial Gods or Deity Transformations, chose to leave. Despite any reluctance or dissatisfaction, no one was willing to gamble with their lives. Even in the face of discontent, they opted to withdraw and observe from a distance.

Following the exodus of countless Martial Gods and Deity Transformations, the entrance to the Heavenly Secret Realm in the Divine Realm's void became crowded with numerous powerhouses. Some couldn't help but comment sarcastically, "Lin Fei sure is domineering, clearing out the field with just a word."

"What does it matter if you're unwilling? Lin Fei can slay both Deity Transformations and Martial Gods. Why don't you go and test his strength yourself?"

"As strong as Lin Fei is, can he really be stronger than a True Monarch? If he continues like this, I fear even a True Monarch won't be able to hold back."

"Lin Fei is not without backing. He's a member of the Ancient Covenant's Great Dream Sect, and the Great Dream Ancestor is known for his protective nature. Who would dare act recklessly?"

"Can the Great Dream Sect control the entire Divine Realm?"

Despite many being dissatisfied, they couldn't deny the reality – no one dared to stop Lin Fei in the Heavenly Secret Realm. At his command, they obediently vacated the realm.

Inside the Heavenly Secret Realm, Lin Fei was tirelessly punching, annihilating the realm's laws one after another. Having 'cleared' the Heavenly Secret Realm, it was time for him to accelerate its collapse. Consequently, as the laws of the Heavenly Secret Realm continued to be obliterated, the realm underwent intense tremors.

The sense of an impending apocalypse gripped the many inhabitants of the Heavenly Secret Realm. Under the current circumstances, the realm couldn't withstand the pressure for a month. Perhaps it would be half a month, maybe ten days, or even as soon as tomorrow when the Heavenly Secret Realm would collapse.

"Almost there," Lin Fei murmured as he observed the Heavenly Secret Realm, ready to crumble at any moment. All he needed to do now was to prepare and wait. With his extensive experience in collecting world origins, Lin Fei was well-prepared for this moment.

"Saber World!"

In the next instant, Lin Fei deployed his Saber World. His Saber World was significantly more powerful than the last time in the Heavenly Principle Realm. However, it was still impossible to cover the entire Heavenly Secret Realm completely.

Fortunately, Lin Fei had twenty-five world laws at his disposal, which allowed him to extend the reach of his Saber World further. The addition of seven more world laws since the Heavenly Principle Realm made it even stronger, but it could still only cover about seventy percent of the realm.

Lin Fei wasn't in a hurry for the remaining thirty percent. He planned to shift his Saber World gradually, moving to a new area once he had collected the world origins from one part. While he might not be able to collect all the world origins of the Heavenly Secret Realm, securing about ninety percent seemed feasible. The remaining ten percent that might be lost was acceptable given the limits of his Saber World's coverage.

Although Lin Fei had deployed his Saber World, he didn't use it to enhance his physical body. Therefore, his physical strength remained at the limit of a Martial God, at the critical point, without reaching the True Monarch level. This prevented the Heavenly Secret Realm from experiencing too much pressure and allowed it to continue its slow march towards collapse.

Ten hours passed, and finally, with a "crack," the Heavenly Secret Realm began to collapse.

A massive crack appeared in the void of the Heavenly Secret Realm, and through this rift, wisps of the realm's world origin began to seep out. All around the void, substantial amounts of the world origins permeated, exceptionally dense, and potent.

Witnessing this, numerous Martial Gods and Deity Transformation powerhouses outside the Heavenly Secret Realm gazed with widened eyes, filled with a sense of unwillingness.

These world origins, which they might have had a share in or at least a chance to contest for, were now tantalizingly out of their reach. They stood helplessly outside the Heavenly Secret Realm, watching the emergence of the world origins but dared not enter to compete for them.

"So much world origin... The Heavenly Secret Realm is even more vast than the True Spirit Realm. If I can obtain these world origins, I might even fully comprehend the secrets of the void and become a Void Transformation True Monarch!"

"Heh, thinking of becoming a Void Transformation True Monarch? That depends on whether there are enough world origins for you to squander."

"I only need a third of these world origins to pass the ninth thunder tribulation and possibly plunder three laws. Then, I can surely reach the realm of shattering the void!"

"With so much world origin, even I could greatly enhance my strength."

The eyes of countless powerhouses gleamed with greed and longing as they stared at the world origins within the Heavenly Secret Realm. Yet, the world origins were inside the realm, unlikely to completely disappear anytime soon. It would take at least three days for them to vanish entirely.

But would they dare to enter the Heavenly Secret Realm? Lin Fei was there, and his Saber World had begun to collect the trickling world origins. To gather them completely would take several days.

During this time, Lin Fei wouldn't let down his guard. Despite his fearsome reputation, there was always the possibility of someone taking a desperate risk.

As time passed, Lin Fei remained vigilant, constantly monitoring the entrance of the Heavenly Secret Realm. Three days flew by surprisingly fast, and Lin Fei found himself somewhat astonished. He had almost completely collected the world origins of the Heavenly Secret Realm—around ninety percent—a significant haul.

However, both inside and outside the Heavenly Secret Realm, things were unusually quiet, eerily so. Nevertheless, having secured the world origins, Lin Fei saw no point in lingering.

"Let's go," he decided, stepping out and leaving the Heavenly Secret Realm.

"Whoosh."

Lin Fei's figure appeared in the Divine Realm, surrounded by countless Martial Gods and Deity Transformation cultivators, all of whom turned their attention to him. Their gazes were varied, but none spoke.

Scanning the crowd, Lin Fei didn't rush to leave. Instead, he stood calmly in the void and said, "Since the True Monarch has already arrived, why hide?"

This statement caused a stir among the crowd.

"What does he mean?"

"Is there a True Monarch here?"

"Did a True Monarch come after Lin Fei?"

"Lin Fei just obtained so many world origins and isn't in a hurry to leave. Is he waiting for the True Monarch?"

"Heh, even if Lin Fei wants to leave, it's useless. A True Monarch can traverse space. No matter how fast Lin Fei is, how can he escape a True Monarch's pursuit?"

"Could it be that a True Monarch is targeting Lin Fei?"

The crowd's eyes lit up with anticipation, some even eager. A True Monarch taking action was something they had been looking forward to, especially given Lin Fei's recent actions that had garnered both awe and resentment.

Repeatedly dominating minor worlds and monopolizing their world origins, Lin Fei's domineering approach had left many Deity Transformations and Martial Gods uneasy. To them, Lin Fei was like a hanging saber, a constant threat looming over their heads.

Particularly for Deity Transformation cultivators, who once enjoyed relative safety even from True Monarchs, Lin Fei's rise had eroded their advantage. Against him, Deity Transformations found themselves utterly outmatched, filled with silent rage but powerless to act. In this context, many secretly wished for a True Monarch to intervene and eliminate Lin Fei.

As Lin Fei finished speaking, a ripple of space appeared in the void, expanding in concentric circles. Then, from the void, a figure in a green robe stepped forward, his gaze fixed intently on Lin Fei.

A True Monarch, beyond any doubt. The crowd witnessed the Daoist emerge from a void passage, a feat only possible for a True Monarch.
