Jun Tianding looked at Xia Liu with a face full of envy. His youth, his talent, everything about him was so dazzling. "Hey, it's all just luck. Without Senior Jun's guidance, I wouldn't have progressed to the third level of cultivation this quickly." "Young Friend Xia, you're too modest. To have such capabilities at your age, you truly are a dragon among men." Jun Tianding said politely. "Haha, Senior Jun, you're joking. I came today to show you my progress over this period, and then return to the sect to attend to some things." Xia Liu said plainly. "Alright, I won't delay you for long. Next, let me see your progress with the Wood Origin." Jun Tianding said with a kind smile. Xia Liu didn't hesitate, he activated his spell, and Wooden Spirit Energy surrounded him. Immediately, a powerful Life Force filled the scene. Under the black robe, Jun Tianding's eyes almost bulged out. This aura, Xia Liu really cultivated the Spirit Wood Art to the third level! Moreover, his Wooden Spirit Energy is extremely pure, indicating that his Wood Origin is very genuine! Jun Tianding was almost drooling. This was the first time he had seen another cultivator, besides himself, train their Wood Origin to such an extent. Noticing Jun Tianding's body trembling slightly, Xia Liu retracted the Wooden Spirit Energy. "You have indeed mastered the Spirit Wood Art to the third level, congratulations!" "Haha, congratulations to both of us." "Indeed, congratulations to both..." Jun Tianding murmured. "Senior Jun, if there's nothing else, I'm planning to return for a while and then come back to the Immeasurable Sect to discuss with you." Xia Liu pretended not to hear Jun Tianding's murmurs, wanting to see if he could leave safely. If not, then it was time to reveal Dragon and Phoenix Suppressing Heaven. "Ah, young friend Xia, no need to rush. I have something I'd like to ask your help with." After a moment of silence, Jun Tianding said leisurely. "Haha, here it comes!" Xia Liu sneered in his heart and then asked, "I don't know what Senior Jun wants me to do. As long as it's achievable, Xia Liu will not refuse." "Haha, you said it yourself." Jun Tianding laughed heartily: "I don't need anything else, I just want the Wood Origin from your body. This request you can fulfill." Xia Liu's gaze changed instantly. Jun Tianding had ulterior motives! Luckily, he didn't attack directly. Taking this chance, Xia Liu wanted to know why he needed his Wood Origin. "I want to know the reason." Xia Liu's expression was very calm, his heart and soul gradually calming down. He was already prepared for this day, it was only a matter of time.

My lifespan is nearing its end, and my Wood Origin hasn't improved, so I need a more powerful Wood Origin to maintain the Life Force of my body." Jun Tianding didn't show a hint of shame. In this world, the strong are revered. Xia Liu, having such capabilities, surely understood this principle well. "To recognize the trend is to be a hero. You are doing well. If you hand over your Wood Origin, the future Immeasurable Sect will be your strong backer." Xia Liu let out a cold laugh. As his Life Force dwindles, he desperately seeks out cultivators with Wood Origin, gets them to cultivate the Spirit Wood Art. When they reach the peak, he jumps out and drains them of their Wood Origin. What a vicious method! What a tyrannical approach! What an Immeasurable Sect! "What if I refuse to give it to you?" Xia Liu asked sharply. "Standing here, you no longer have the right to decide. With your level of cultivation, you can't even leave the Immeasurable Sect." Jun Tianding spoke leisurely, as if he had Xia Liu firmly in his grasp. He had been dominating the Immeasurable Sect for over two hundred years. In the realm, he'd been a formidable figure for several hundred years. His life had only known a few enemies because after crossing paths with him, they all ended up dead. "Even if you're wearing Qingyun Sect's attire, it won't help. If I wish, the destruction of Qingyun Sect would be just a thought away." Looking at Xia Liu's clothing, Jun Tianding said with confidence. "If you perish, are you certain the Immeasurable Sect can withstand Qingyun Sect's assault?" "Ha! Young lad, your joke is so cold, it's giving me goosebumps." Jun Tianding chuckled disapprovingly, Xia Liu actually considered killing him. Where did his confidence come from? From the twelfth level of Qi Cultivation he just reached a few days ago? Or from that mysterious mind capable of breaking formations? Xia Liu was still too young. With his talent, without actual power, how could he defeat someone at the fifteen levels of Qi Cultivation. Besides, Jun Tianding's cultivation had surpassed the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation, amounting to a Half-Step Foundation Establishment early-stage cultivator. He was confident that not even ten Xia Lius could be his match. If it weren't for his low profile, this world would have long been subjugated under his feet. "I never joke. You want my Origin Power, which is beyond moral bounds, I will not agree." Xia Liu thought for a moment and continued: "You gave me the Spirit Wood Art to cultivate, aiming to enhance my Origin Power for you to devour, so there's no affection left between us." "Indeed, there's no affection between us, but if you willingly hand over the Wood Origin, we will have a connection. I will take you as a closed-door disciple, and the Immeasurable Sect's vast resources will be available for your cultivation." Not until the last resort did Jun Tianding want to forcibly extract Xia Liu's Wood Origin through powerful means. If he willingly handed it over, then that Wood Origin would be wholly his. A forceful extraction would not only endanger his life but also damage the Wood Origin. Thinking it over, Xia Liu willingly handing over the Origin was undoubtedly the best option. "Being your disciple, I'd rather commit suicide and be reborn into an ordinary family in my next life." Xia Liu swiftly replied. "If that's the case, don't blame me for harming your life." Jun Tianding's tone turned completely cold. In his life of many glories, when had he ever been looked down upon by a junior ? "Many have sought my life; you're just one among them. As for their fate, I suppose the weeds before their graves grow taller than men." Xia Liu said indifferently. "Ha! Show me your confidence, let me see if it's worthy of my True Martial!" Jun Tianding was amused. In his lifetime, to come across such a junior was truly interesting! As Jun Tianding's voice fell, eight auras surged from different directions. The aura they emitted had all reached the fourteenth level of Qi Cultivation. These were, evidently, the eight elders of the Immeasurable Sect! In the further background, hidden in the shadows, a person sighed silently. Eventually, the Honored Master still took this step. Wang Liang was full of emotion, he didn't show himself. Xia Liu had always given him a mysterious and powerful impression. He even had a premonition. The Immeasurable Sect would fall to an irrecoverable decline because of this incident.
