'Wait until you become powerful, and then return the bloodthirsty sword to yourself?' Lin Yun's heart stirred slightly.
This method is feasible, otherwise, he really cannot conjure a sacred realm strongman.
'I wonder, what kind of strength do I need to reach before you will feel at ease?' Thinking this, Lin Yun asked.
Hearing Lin Yun's words, the old man was also pleased.
No matter what Lin Yun was hesitating for, this sentence meant that Lin Yun was considering the second possibility. If that was the case, he would also have more time to use the Bloodsucking Sword.
Originally, he was worried that if Lin Yun directly transmitted a message to the powerful people of the Immortal Source Holy Land, and the powerful people of the Immortal Source Holy Land rushed over immediately, the whole process would be too fast, leaving him not much time to use the Bloodsucking Sword.
In that case, he doesn't have to worry.
'My current strength is half a step above the great power, which is above the level of the pinnacle of the twelfth level. I feel that I can almost control this blood-sucking sword at the pinnacle of the twelfth level,' the old man paused and said.
Now, the opponent's realm is late stage 10th level, but he is only in his twenties. So, breaking through to the pinnacle of the twelfth level shouldn't be too much to ask for, right?
As he spoke, the old man thought to himself.
'Half a step to great power?'
Hearing the old man's words, Lin Yun was surprised.
He knew that in many cultivation systems, there were often terms like half a step before the great realm, which was very difficult to break through.
For example, in the realm of martial arts, there are terms like half a step to golden fruit, half a step to realm, and so on.
Half a step to great power should be very close to the realm of great power, and at the very least, the strength far exceeds that of an average peak-level practitioner of the twelfth level.
He didn't expect that this old man actually had such terrifying strength.
No wonder he was able to seriously injure a Level 12 golden beast.
'Level 12 peak?' Lin Yun then frowned slightly and said, "I wonder if it's my realm that has reached Level 12 peak, or if it's my strength that has reached Level 12 peak?'
'It doesn't matter which one reaches Level 12 peak," the old man nodded with a smile.
Although the other party is now at the late stage of the tenth level and has a strength that surpasses the average eleventh-level peak, that is only with the Bloodsucking Sword. Without the Bloodsucking Sword, he is only at the late stage of the tenth level.
Although, he is not weak.
However, the further you go, the more difficult it is to fight above your level.
He can see that the reason why Lin Yun has such a strong ability to fight above his level is because of his deep accumulation in the past.
The difference between the eleventh and twelfth levels is huge.
After level 12, each level is vastly different.
Lin Yun wants to reach the pinnacle of level 12, so he needs to at least reach the mid-level of level 12, or even the late-level of level 12.
Late-level 10, breakthrough to mid-level 12? Late-level?
This will not be a short period of time.
Although Lin Yun has only reached his current level in his twenties, he still does not think that Lin Yun will be able to breakthrough to the mid-level or late-level of level 12 anytime soon.
'Perhaps the other party will not realise how difficult the later breakthroughs are, and by the time they do, who knows how much time will have passed...' the old man mused.
'May I ask, if I have reached the pinnacle of the twelfth level, how do I find you?' Lin Yun asked.
'The ninth-level civilisation star domain, the Nanyuan galaxy, my name is Nan Weng. You'll know once you go there and ask around,' the old man laughed.
'Thousands of years ago, I heard the sage preach at the Xianyuan Holy Land and benefited greatly. I never expected that thousands of years later, after the Xianyuan Holy Land was closed, I would still be able to meet someone from the Xianyuan Holy Land again. It is also fate that you and I meet. I will give you these spiritual crystals.' After a pause, the old man continued, 'In the end, he decided to give some benefits away, just in case the other party did not break through for a long time and no longer chose the second option, but instead chose the first option.
If the powerful person from the sacred land of immortals came and decided that he wanted to take advantage of the other party, then there would be trouble.
Hoo——
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a spatial ring appeared in front of Lin Yun.
'This is one hundred trillion spirit crystals. I will take my leave now,' said the old man as he waved to collect the bloodthirsty sword and turned to leave.
'Senior, please wait a moment,' Lin Yun said.
'Huh?' The old man looked at Lin Yun.
'This golden beast and I have fought together, I wonder if you could let it go?' Lin Yun looked at the golden beast and asked with a fluttering heart.
He knew full well that this golden beast was not cheap, and he really didn't know if the other party would let it go. This old man was terrifyingly powerful, and in theory, even if he took the Bloodsucking Sword, as long as he didn't kill him, he would be considered very kind.
Now, not only has he been given one hundred trillion spirit crystals, he has also been promised that he will return the Bloodsucking Sword once he has reached a certain level of power. However, he still makes such a request, which really feels like he is taking advantage.
But after all, this golden beast has known him for a while, and they have gotten along quite well. If he doesn't ask, he feels bad in his heart.
'This...' The old man frowned.
The golden beast is extremely valuable. If he cannot use the Bloodsucking Sword to break through to the realm of great power and has to rely on this golden beast to hold things together, it is clear that this golden beast will become his possession...
'Roar—roar...'
At that moment, the golden beast over there heard Lin Yun's words and could not help but roar repeatedly towards Lin Yun, as if in response.
'Stop! Stop! Stop!' The old man sighed when he saw this.
The friendship between this golden beast and the other party had already been established. If he did not agree, this young man would definitely hold a grudge against him. If an ordinary person held a grudge against him, he naturally would not care.
But the other party was from the Xianyuan Holy Land.
He also obtained the Bloodsucking Sword from the other party.
Now, let's use this golden beast to make amends!
Hopefully, if a powerful being from the Xianyuan Holy Land really comes looking for him in the future, the two sides can end amicably because of this golden beast!
Hopefully, he can use the Bloodsucking Sword to break through to the realm of great power, and it won't be in vain for him to give up this golden beast now!
Hoo——
Thinking this, the old man waved his hand, and the large transparent palm that was binding the golden beast there dispersed.
'My friend, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave,' the old man looked at Lin Yun and said.
'Thank you for your understanding,' Lin Yun said with a bow.
At this point, he already knew that the golden beast was most likely the prey that the other party had long been eyeing. It had never been captured, and it should be a means of subduing it. He had seen this kind of method on the Universal Trading System.
To let the other party give up like this was really not an ordinary kind of courage.
At this moment, he was also very sincerely grateful to the other party.
'Hum——'
A spatial fluctuation, and the old man teleported away.
Lin Yun's eyes flickered a few times, and he turned his head to look in one direction in the starry sky.
There was one more thing that he didn't say.
That was, just now, because of the arrival of this old man, Ming Du had run away.
For so long, Ming Du had already run away to an unknown location.
However, he had just asked for too much, and he was afraid that if he continued, the old man would become impatient and retract the promise he had made earlier.
After all, he didn't have any power behind him, and he didn't have the backing to speak with conviction.
Anyway, Mingdu is in this star system, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to find the other party by sending out some monitoring equipment, right?
As he thought about this, Lin Yun couldn't help but think about the one hundred million spirit crystals that the old man had left behind.
With one hundred million spirit crystals, he could purchase a lot of powerful detection equipment, and even some more special detection equipment.
The other party was worthy of being a half-step Daineng powerhouse, and he had used one hundred million spirit crystals in one move.
Previously, when he planned to sell the Bloodsucking Sword on the universal trading system, he was not even sure he could sell that many spirit crystals.
Of course, the fact that there were Xiao Bai and Xiao Lan inside the Bloodsucking Sword was not something that could be measured in terms of spirit crystals. Even if he was offered a lot of spirit crystals, he would not sell it.
