When they met again this time, Lin Yan's feelings to Han Shangyan changed greatly, and he really couldn't understand how Lin Yan managed to improve his strength to this point in such a short period of time!

If according to the normal situation, after a martial artist breaks through to the innate realm, the cultivation progress will unconsciously slow down, which has nothing to do with diligence or not, at this level, every step forward needs to be accumulated, and it is not possible to achieve it overnight.

However, Lin Yan's progress speed can be called terrifying, and the laws of ordinary people do not seem to apply to him, and his cultivation is like a rocket.

Han Shangyan felt a strong threat from Lin Yan, and if the other party made a move against him, he might not be able to stop it.

On the way, Han Shangyan said with an exclamation on his face: "Juzi, I'm afraid it won't be long before you can compete with the helmsmen of those transcendent forces!" ”

When this sentence came out, even he himself was startled, after all, how old is Lin Yan, and those people are all strong people who have been famous for a long time, and now the back waves of the Yangtze River are pushing the front waves, with a character like Lin Yan in charge, as long as there are no accidents, Momen will definitely be prosperous!

For Han Shangyan, this is a good thing, after all, he is a person from Wanbaolou, and he is inextricably linked with Momen, which can be regarded as both prosperity and loss, and Lin Yan's strength will become their help.

Not long after, Han Shangyan took Lin Yan to meet Xiao Miaozhi, the master of the merchant hall who did not appear much in Wanbao Building on weekdays, and was basically hidden behind the scenes.

Seeing Lin Yan's arrival, Xiao Miaozhi did not seem too shocked, as if she had expected this.

Lin Yan didn't procrastinate, he directly explained the intention, and after listening to the cause and effect of the whole thing, Xiao Miaozhi frowned slightly, and only said after a moment of silence: "Recently, some unusual breaths have increased suddenly, and it turns out that the source is here." ”

Although she controls the Shang Hall, and Wanbaolou's influence covers a wide range, after all, her own level is not yet at the level of the academy dean, and it is impossible to know some ancient secrets and real insiders.

However, after experiencing the initial shock, Xiao Miaozhi also quickly calmed down, and she spoke: "I've actually been paying attention to these things recently, and now that I know the reason, some joints that I can't figure out can be connected." ”

Recently, there has been a big gap between the style of the Xuantian Sect and the Buddha Sect compared to the past, and now it seems that they should have reached some kind of cooperation with the people of the upper realm.

Moreover, the people they sent out seemed to be looking for something purposefully, but in fact, the people who actually did it didn't know the inside story at all, they just passively discovered some anomalies, and then reported back the information they obtained, and even the specific direction they were looking for was a little vague.

It is reasonable to infer that what they are looking for must be extremely important that this is why they have done this level of secrecy.

Moreover, there has been a strange thing recently, and that is that something seems to have happened within the Nanban that has caused them to join the ranks.

Xiao Miaozhi's red lips opened lightly, and said: "Maybe there is also the shadow of the people of the upper realm behind Nanban, and it has even been controlled by it, and now it is just acting passively. ”

Her suspicions are very reasonable, because after Yang Guang ascended the throne, his style of acting has been extremely fierce, intending to use strong force to completely control the Nanban in his hands and continue to expand his territory.

It can be seen from the fact that Yangguang dealt with the forces in the territory at the same time and sent troops to the Eastern Tang Dynasty that two-front operations not only require huge troops, but also strong national strength!

After all, "the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first", there can be no war without adequate logistical support, and the hungry soldiers will mutini sooner or later.

This time, coupled with the Western Wilderness's battle against Tang, in fact, Yangguang's strategy is basically correct, if it were not for many changes, Nanban could solve many problems once and for all, and completely calm down the chaos at home and abroad!

The sudden change in his actions should be due to the influence of external forces, and in this sensitive period, it is easy to guess what he is!

Lin Yan said: "Behind them, it should be the 'Holy Courtyard' of the upper realm!" ”

He learned a lot of secrets from the dean, and there are also forces in the upper realm, after all, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and it is difficult for immortals to truly transcend.

The Dao Sect and the Buddha Land are inextricably linked to the Xuantian Sect and the Buddha Sect of the Metaverse Realm, and they can easily do some things through the huge forces established by the latter.

However, the Holy Academy is different, in a sense, their positioning is more awkward, because the Academy of the Metaverse is not friends with them, but most likely enemies!

The strength of the dean of the academy is extremely strong, and even the immortals of the upper realm are afraid of him, so as long as the dean still exists for a day, it is impossible for the academy to be truly used by them.

And when they come to the completely unfamiliar Metaverse, the so-called immortals of these holy courtyards also need to find their own power, and it is estimated that Nanban is the target they can find.

It is still unclear the specific strength of these people from the upper realm, but for most people in the Metaverse, it may be crushing, and forcibly controlling a mortal realm is not too difficult!

It's just that Lin Yan knows in his heart that Yang Guang is not a good-looking character, even if he gives in on the surface, he can't really be driven by people willingly in his heart. Once there is a chance, it will inevitably bite these Upper Realm Immortals fiercely!

Yang Guang will not frown when he kills his father and usurps the throne, he is scheming, and he will naturally not be soft when dealing with these people!

Although Lin Yan very much needs to see the picture of "dog eats dog", it is too negative to pin his hope on the enemy's own destruction, he has to take the initiative to think of effective ways to give these immortals a lesson that they will never forget, so that they can understand that this world is not an existence that they can take and want!

Of course, in order to do this, he also needs the help of layout and companions, after all, he is not strong enough to push everything sideways.

If Lin Yan had the strength of a dean, all these guys who came to the Metaverse to make trouble would have to be completely buried here!

Xiao Miaozhi said: "Next, I will disperse the power of Shangtang and get as detailed information as possible." But for now, the best enemy to deal with is probably what you call the Sanctuary! ”

The so-called "persimmon should pick the soft pinch", when facing such a powerful enemy, the best way is to find their weak points, and then concentrate a little to disintegrate them!

Compared to the people of the Dao Sect and the Buddha Land, the people of the Holy Courtyard were obviously easier to deal with, mainly because they did not have a strong local force to help. Even if the Nanban was under their control, it would be difficult for the forces of the mortal realm to affect their level of battle!

It can be said that if they deal with the people of the Holy Courtyard, they can concentrate their combat power without having to be distracted elsewhere.

And even the immortals of the upper realm are in a competitive relationship, so if Lin Yan does something to the people of the Holy Courtyard, the Dao Sect and the Buddha Land may not help, and it is good to watch from the sidelines, maybe they will fall into the ground!

They are ostensibly on the same front, but this kind of cooperation may only be limited to breaking through the seal of the passage of the two realms and successfully reaching the lower realm, and then this cooperation is extremely fragile, and it will not even have any binding effect on them at all!

It is conceivable that once what they are looking for is actually present, these people will definitely turn their faces in an instant, so there is no need to worry too much about what kind of "offensive and defensive alliance" they will form.

Moreover, for these people from the upper realm, there is still an attitude of contempt and contempt for the martial artists of the Metaverse in nature, they are already extremely powerful existences, and they don't bother to join forces with other forces at all.

These people will only grab as much strength as possible in the shortest possible time, so Lin Yan must give them a thunderous blow when they don't react, otherwise once these people are alerted, they will be together, and the possibility of success will become even slimmer!

While waiting for information, Lin Yan was not idle, Xiao Miaozhi is an extremely smart woman, and she is also a qualified controller of Shangtang, for the current situation, with her by her side, Lin Yan will be much easier.

Moreover, Xiao Miaozhi herself also has good attainments in mechanical arts, and during this time, Lin Yan can just discuss with him in order to confirm what he has learned.

There are many aspects covered in the "Book of Instruments" of Gong Yin, and the knowledge is extremely complicated, even if Lin Yan has mastered some of the contents, most of the things are difficult to completely digest in a short period of time.

The in-depth exchange with Xiao Miaozhi in terms of mechanism techniques has made De Lin Yan constantly have new insights, and some places that were originally incomprehensible also have a feeling of being opened.

Of course, Xiao Miaozhi herself has also benefited a lot, although Lin Yan can't easily teach the "Book of Instruments" to others, but the few words that are occasionally revealed are hidden places for Xiao Miaozhi to ponder, and Lin Yan corroborates each other, she feels that her mechanism has other possibilities, which makes her a little shocked!

The previous time I naturally knew that Lin Yan knew the trick, but the research on this path can only be said to be pretty good, after all, a person's energy is limited, Lin Yan can make rapid progress in the martial arts, it doesn't mean that he can easily play with the tricks in the palm of his hand.

And when she saw it this time, Xiao Miaozhi found that Lin Yan's mechanism technique had improved by leaps and bounds in a very short period of time, which was the most incredible thing in her opinion!

Because unlike martial arts cultivation, the refinement of the mechanism requires a lot of time and energy to constantly trial and error, so that it is possible to catch that fleeting aura in a large amount of experimental data!

It can be said that as long as you have high-level exercises and martial arts, and practice diligently for a period of time, you can also change from an ordinary person to a good master of the rivers and lakes.

However, even if a person is presented with the knowledge and research results related to mechanical arts, it will take a lot of time and energy to study these things, and the income at that time may be extremely disproportionate to the initial effort, and it will be difficult for most people to carry it on.

Cramming is one way to do it, but it's going to be a long process to really understand it, to make it all the way, even to the point of fingers!

And Lin Yan in front of him seems to have broken this common sense, Xiao Miaozhi originally thought that she had a good talent in mechanical arts, but this time she was hit hard by Lin Yan!

She complained in her heart: "What a demon! ”

As the two continued to communicate, Xiao Miaozhi also had some new ideas about her ink lion. After all, a large part of his combat power comes from it, and the ink lion can be regarded as an extremely powerful hole card of Shangtang, if he can further improve his combat power, the benefits will definitely be huge!

Through the news in Lin Yan's mouth, in the coming days, this Metaverse will inevitably encounter unimaginable chaos, and in such chaos, only strong strength is the key to ensuring the safe existence of Shangtang!

It will take some time for the news to be delivered, and after Xiao Miaozhi has a new idea, she can't wait to take action, and she wants to make some new transformations to the ink lion, so that she can obtain more powerful and stable combat power!

And Lin Yan was not idle, he calmed down his heart, digested the content of the "Book of Instruments", and at the same time integrated some of the insights that Xiao Miaozhi discussed with himself into it, and gradually absorbed these things into his own.

He was not in a hurry to improve his realm, because the leap he had achieved with the help of the "Otogi Essence" was already quite huge, even if the foundation he had laid in the past was extremely solid, it actually took some time to precipitate, so that he could truly take the power into his own hands!

In addition to the accumulation, the most important thing for the breakthrough of the realm of heaven and man is the understanding, this matter cannot be rushed, it can only be done slowly!

Buddhism has a saying of "becoming a Buddha on the ground", when it accumulates to a certain extent, if you have the right sense of chance, you can naturally step into the extraordinary realm!

But this kind of thing is unavoidable, it can only be done to the best of the people, after all, there have been countless Tianjiao throughout the ages, and it is not easy for Pu through the river carp, who has been blocked outside the gate of the realm of heaven and man all his life, to jump over the dragon gate!

……

While Lin Yan was preparing, Xichen and the others in the Holy Courtyard had already begun the next move, although Nanban was under their control, but this could not satisfy these Upper Realm Immortals.

They need more forces to serve them, so that they can get what they want before the other two forces.

This time, Xichen set his sights on the wasteland, which borders on the four major powers, although it is a chaotic place, but I heard that there is a force here to control the wasteland, as long as this force is suppressed, the progress of finding that thing may be much faster.

Originally, Yang Guang still wanted to pry Xichen and the others to deal with Tang Guo, but the latter was not stupid, and at this stage, they didn't want to directly confront the academy, so everything had to wait for the game between the academy dean and the giants of the upper realm to settle!

Countless thoughts and malice are intertwined, and the gears of fate begin to turn, but fate makes them finally converge on the same trajectory......
