Chapter 75 From this moment on, Lin will be the first person to reach the pinnacle of the realm

Lin Che waved his sleeve, and the Human Emperor Banner, refined into a banned banner, soared into the sky. Countless golden chains, like immortal-binding ropes, extracted the souls of the fallen cultivators and merged them into the soul banner.

Seeing this, the cultivators present gasped in unison, unable to believe that this fellow had instantly killed hundreds of Spirit Transformation Stage experts, including more than a dozen Infant Transformation cultivators.

Zhu Quezi did not care about the lives of his subordinates; instead, his gaze greedily fixated on Lin Che, seemingly eager to extract all of his lifespan.

"Are you Lin Che?"

Lin Che looked in Zhu Quezi's direction and said indifferently, "If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency should be the Lord of Suzaku Star, the fourteenth generation Zhu Que, Zhu Quezi, right?"

Zhu Quezi narrowed his eyes, looking at Lin Che with undisguised greed, but due to his status, he still spoke slowly, "Lin Che, why did you kill my Zhu Que Country cultivators? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, don't blame this old man for being ruthless."

He said this entirely to give himself an out. After all, for him, as the Lord of Zhu Que Country, to personally take action had already shocked the cultivators.

But if he acted for the sake of Zhu Que Country's cultivators, then even if he slaughtered the entire Snow Domain Country, no one would utter a word of dissent.

After all, Zhu Quezi was doing this for Zhu Que Country, not for personal gain. That's why Zhu Quezi spoke in front of everyone about Lin Che killing Zhu Que Country cultivators.

Lin Che snorted coldly in his heart. Others might not know, but how could he not know Zhu Quezi's character? He merely wanted to make himself a scapegoat for Zhu Quezi to use to extend his lifespan through cultivation.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu Quezi, when you arranged for cultivators to go to my Zhao Country to slaughter the entire Hengyue Sect, did you ever consider that there would be a day like this?"

As fellow Dao Querying Realm cultivators, although Lin Che had just stepped into this realm, it didn't mean he feared Zhu Quezi. With the Pseudo Immortal Treasure, it was truly uncertain who would win or lose.

Zhu Quezi stood with one hand behind his back, looking down at Lin Che like he was surveying the heavens and earth, and slowly said, "Lin Che, if you can become a Protector of my Zhu Que Country, what happened today will be written off. What do you think?"

"Protector?" Lin Che said with a playful smile, "Senior Zhu Quezi, it's come to this point, and you still plan for me to go to Zhu Que Country and become a fish on a chopping block? Isn't that a bit too late?"

A cold killing intent flashed in Zhu Quezi's eyes. He hadn't expected this fellow to be so arrogant, speaking such words to him in public. It was simply conceited.

"Junior, considering the difficulty of your cultivation, this venerable one can allow you to join Zhu Que Country as a Protector, and can also allow your Zhao Country to be promoted to a Six-Level Cultivation Country."

Zhu Quezi's lifespan was nearing its end, and his disciple Qian Feng was still too weak to help him extend his life significantly. Only by killing Lin Che could he obtain a vast amount of lifespan.

Now, seeing that the other party disagreed, Zhu Quezi immediately dropped his pretense. He pressed his right hand downwards, "Since that's the case, don't blame this old man for being merciless."

"Kill him for me! Anyone who can kill this child will be rewarded with a Pseudo Immortal Treasure!"

As Zhu Quezi's voice fell, the cultivators present immediately brightened, looking at Zhu Quezi in disbelief, never expecting the Lord of Zhu Que to be willing to offer a Pseudo Immortal Treasure to kill Lin Che.

Under the temptation of the Pseudo Immortal Treasure, these cultivators were also eager to act. Even if their cultivation was no match for Lin Che, their numbers were vast, and killing Lin Che, who had just broken through to the Dao Querying Realm, shouldn't be difficult.

As the saying goes, 'people die for wealth, and birds die for food.' Lin Che was the Pseudo Immortal Treasure before them. If they could kill him, it would be immensely beneficial to their cultivation.

After all, this fellow must also have a large number of rare treasures on him. If they could obtain them, it would undoubtedly be an unimaginable opportunity.

Seeing the cultivators eager to move, Lin Che's lips curved into an arc, and then he spoke like a clap of thunder, "Within three breaths, those who remain here shall die!"

"One breath."

"Fellow Daoist, I know you've just broken through to the Dao Querying Realm, but your cultivation is unstable and not yet fully consolidated. If you're smart, surrender quickly, otherwise, offending Zhu Que Country of Suzaku Star will surely lead to your death!"

"Two breaths."

Lin Che's voice was chillingly cold, echoing like a Rakshasa in everyone's ears. Finally, someone couldn't bear the fear in their heart and turned to flee into the distance.

The experts in the field looked at each other, sensing the extraordinary nature of the newcomer, and turned to leave. However, Lin Che snorted coldly, "Now you want to leave? Too late!"

However, many cultivators still rushed towards Lin Che's position like madmen, but in front of him…

Lin Che raised a finger, and a blood-red azure lightning bolt crashed down, transforming into countless dense electric nets that wantonly weaved through the crowd, harvesting the lives of the cultivators present.

In just a fleeting moment, the Spirit Transformation Stage and Nascent Soul Stage experts who had just reacted were struck by the azure lightning. The tearing pain prevented them from reacting at all, and they didn't even have a chance to speak, their Nascent Souls scattering instantly.

Under the gaze of the Snow Domain Country experts, the cultivators in the air continuously fell from the sky like dumplings, their souls all forcibly extracted by Lin Che and absorbed into his Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Li Yuanfeng, the strongest expert of Snow Domain Country, swallowed hard. He had almost rushed forward just now… After all, Pseudo Immortal Treasures were simply too tempting for cultivators like them.

Even he couldn't help but want a share, because if he missed such a good thing, he would truly never encounter it again in this life.

But seeing the cultivators falling from the sky, Li Yuanfeng finally realized why Lin Che was so calm and composed; there was no trace of fear at all.

Lin Che conjured the Pseudo Immortal Treasure and slowly said, "From this moment on, I, Lin, shall be the number one person in the Dao Querying Realm. If you do not retreat quickly, you will all die here today."

"Arrogant!"

"Do you really think my Zhu Que Country has stood on Suzaku Star for so many years based on a false reputation?" Zhu Quezi's lips curled slightly, and he abruptly waved his sleeve. Several white lights shot out from his sleeve. These blue lights spread throughout the sky.

After a while, the blue light intensified, and countless blue threads extended out. In just the blink of an eye, these white threads covered the sky, finally forming a shimmering net that covered the entire sky.

"Since you are so unappreciative, then I shall make you understand what a true expert of the Dao Querying Realm is!"
