By the time Chu Feng and Wang Qiang steadied themselves, they were already standing at the entrance to the Ancestral Dragon Forbidden Land.
Though this world was minuscule compared to the largest worlds of the Martial Cultivation World, its territory was vast enough to contain countless copies of the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm. It was a world so expansive that many cultivators could spend their entire lives without traversing it, unless they used a teleportation formation.
Yet despite this immense expanse, the Sect Master of the Cangxian Immortal Sect could reach any location he wished in an astonishingly short time.
This was the Divine Lord Realm—the legendary realm of old.
A being whose existence a peak True God could only destroy by paying an immense price to unleash a full-power strike, and yet he needed but a single thought to accomplish.
But neither Chu Feng nor Wang Qiang had the luxury of marveling at this.
Not far ahead, a withered figure stood waiting for them.
Long Lin.
Under normal circumstances, they should have immediately contacted Long Lin and warned him about the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master. However, because of that robe, they couldn't transmit their voices secretly, nor did they dare make any other sudden moves.
As for Long Lin, he naturally had no idea that this was Wang Qiang and Chu Feng. He merely assumed they were helpers the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master had brought along. So he gave them only a cursory glance before fixing his gaze on the Sect Master.
"Sect Master, what brings you here?"
"Weren't you in the Age of the Gods?"
Long Lin wore a broad smile, eager to please, his eyes brimming with servility and fear.
"What, afraid to see this old man?" The Cangxian Immortal Sect Master smiled faintly.
Long Lin was about to respond, but before he could utter a word, a thunderous boom erupted.
A boundless oppressive pressure descended from the sky, and Long Lin was driven straight to the ground.
Though he held the exalted title of peak True God, his miserable state at that moment was scarcely different from what Wang Qiang had endured earlier.
Before a Divine Lord, all were treated equally.
There was virtually no distinction between a peak True God and a peak Demigod.
The Cangxian Immortal Sect Master strode forward and planted his foot on Long Lin's head.
"Long Lin, you've really grown bold. I helped you ascend to the position of Patriarch of the Totem Dragon Clan, and instead of being grateful, you sought out Jie Tianran as your backer and turned around to threaten me?"
His gaze was cold, and killing intent radiated from him.
"Sect Master, I had no choice. After all, I am still a member of the Totem Dragon Clan. I didn't want to become a sinner."
"I was foolish, and I have long since repented. In truth, even if you hadn't come to find me, I had already decided to offer the Ancestral Dragon's remains to you." Long Lin hastily confessed his wrongs.
It wasn't that he lacked backbone—it was simply that now was not the time for backbone. He had to lure the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master into the Ancestral Dragon Forbidden Land.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master's expression shifted. Not only did he lift his foot from Long Lin's head, but he also withdrew his oppressive pressure.
He had never truly intended to kill Long Lin in the first place. His plan had been to first intimidation, then threaten and entice, forcing Long Lin into submission.
He hadn't expected Long Lin to already have come to this realization.
"Long Lin, is what you say true?" the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master asked.
"Sect Master, I can take you into the Ancestral Dragon Forbidden Land right now." Long Lin raised his head and replied.
"Long Lin, had it been anyone else who dared betray me like this, they would already be dead."
"But I truly have a great appreciation for you, so I'll give you one more chance."
"If you dare try to deceive me again, I promise you will wish for death."
As he spoke, the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master helped Long Lin to his feet.
"Thank you, Sect Master, for giving me this chance."
"Sect Master, I have everything prepared. Please, follow me."
After rising, Long Lin formed a series of hand seals, and a barrier gate materialized in the previously empty space before them.
At the sight of this barrier gate, the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master's eyes burned with fervor.
Though the Cangxian Immortal Sect Master was already a Divine Lord, possessing the power to annihilate this entire world.
