However, it did not appear weak, and as he stood up, the white giant stone behind him flickered with a faint glow.

The true Holy Light!

But for Xu Lingjun, who stormed into the Holy Hall, it seemed the stubborn defense from before had completely vanished.

Although the previous resistance was also quite weak, because the Holy Hall had already been mostly vanquished by Xu Lingjun. There were still quite a few remaining experts, but none who could pose any threat to Xu Lingjun.

But now, they gave up resistance, as if they had already surrendered.

However, with his current strength...

Even if the enemy had something hidden, it was completely meaningless.

He strode towards the deepest part of the Holy Hall.

The path was unobstructed...

He just kept walking.

Underfoot, there suddenly was a strange, extremely insubstantial feeling, as if walking on clouds.

"The Spiritual Qi... has become denser?"

Perhaps an ordinary person wouldn’t notice the anomaly.

But for Xu Lingjun, as a cultivator, using the Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique allowed him to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi directly into his body, and even detect the movements of Spiritual Qi around.

It was because of this that he could sense...

It wasn’t just about becoming denser... The Spiritual Qi here was very pure.

So pure it made him feel dizzy.

Similar to being intoxicated by oxygen.

Xu Lingjun couldn’t help but feel mildly surprised. For him to still feel intoxicated with his current strength... The Spiritual Qi here was no ordinary thing.

There was only one path.

Without any turns, and at the end, was a towering white grand hall.

He walked in with big strides.

The hall was vast and empty, with a red carpet stretching to the height at the end, where Laine and a white-robed old man stood.

The vast hall was only occupied by the two of them.

Yet Xu Lingjun’s gaze didn’t focus on Laine or the old man...

It fell onto that giant stone, even taller than him.

A Spirit Stone?!

A Spirit Stone bigger than a person?!

And this Spiritual Qi...

Xu Lingjun was just about to call out to Lu Ye to come and see when he surprisingly found that there was nothing around.

No wonder she hadn’t noticed this place before, as it didn’t even have any plants.

"I didn’t expect the King of the Secret Realm to be so young!"

The white robe’s gaze wandered back and forth over Xu Lingjun, and despite his heart being like dried water, he couldn’t help but sigh with admiration.

That mask, evidently, couldn’t hide his gaze.

"Your king is younger than I am!"

Xu Lingjun’s gaze appraised the white robe, and his expression grew solemn.

Spiritual Sense swirled around him...

Yet there was a sense that what stood before him was not a person, but clearly a stone.

This person, though separate from that huge stone behind, had already become one with it.

"But the king does not compare favorably to you."

Regardless of Laine being right next to him, the white robe seriously expressed his admiration for Xu Lingjun, "No wonder Uther regards you so highly!"

King Laine gritted his teeth but said nothing.

He knew his own circumstances; if it weren’t for Uther’s interest, he wouldn’t have had the qualification to become the new king at all.

Compared to the King of the Secret Realm, he indeed fell short on more than one account!

Xu Lingjun marveled, "Are you the foundation of the Baoxue Empire? Impressive... No wonder I’ve never heard of your name before, are you a Stone Spirit that gained essence?"

The old man before him had no heartbeat, no breath, nothing left.

Aside from having a human body, he was no different from that stone.

This old guy... is no ordinary being!

Thinking this, Xu Lingjun’s eyes burned even more intensely.

Hmm... That large Spirit Stone is certainly no ordinary thing.

I want it.
