In the Immortal Sect Martial Arts Arena of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, among the over one hundred thousand cultivators, almost no one dared to believe what Lin Xuankong had just said. These were Third-Grade Earth Immortals from several Immortal Sects, all towering figures renowned throughout the Central Divine Dynasty! Not to mention others, even just Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect was enough to suppress all the cultivators present!
However, in the face of the demands of so many Earth Immortals, Mu Shiba was so resolute, rejecting these Earth Immortals on the spot. How could they not be astonished or stupefied!
In the area where the disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect were gathered, the genius disciple Xiaoo Yan couldn't help but shake his head and say, "This Mu Shiba is strong, indeed strong, but he seems a bit oblivious to the situation! He can manifest an Initial Tier Earth Immortal Body, which is truly astonishing. His use of seven Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts to defeat four Demon King Level Earth Dragons on the spot is also certainly impressive! But the ones he defeated were merely Initial Tier Demon Kings. Right now, he's facing a group of Third-Grade Earth Immortals and even a terrifying late-stage Fifth-Grade Earth Immortal! How could he dare to speak like that? How could he dare to openly refuse them?"
Behind Xiaoo Yan, several other Five Elements Immortal Sect disciples also shook their heads repeatedly. They clearly thought that Lin Xuankong's insistence on keeping secrets at this time was extremely unwise! When facing powerful Third-Grade Earth Immortals, there are simply too many methods to make someone speak. How could he possibly keep his secrets!
Feng Lingling suddenly let out a burst of laughter. "Interesting, so interesting. This Mu Shiba is indeed different from anyone I've ever met!" She glanced at the genius disciple Xiaoo Yan beside her. "Even you, Senior Brother Xiaoo, would probably kneel and pay your respects immediately when facing those Third-Grade Earth Immortals, right? But this Mu Shiba dares to refuse a group of Earth Immortals in public. Hmm, this kind of courage is truly interesting and unique!"
The genius disciple Xiaoo Yan of the Five Elements Immortal Sect shook his head vigorously. "Courage taken too far is called recklessness. A wise man submits to circumstances!"
Feng Lingling giggled. "Submitting to circumstances is just an excuse for giving in. In my opinion, this Mu Shiba, merely because of his courage, is enough to make the over one hundred thousand cultivators here seem dull in comparison. Hmm, I'm becoming more and more interested in him!"
Xiaoo Yan looked speechless.
Heh, as if being the object of your interest is a good thing!
At this moment, in the clouds high above, many Third-Grade Earth Immortals were also somewhat surprised, especially those who had already taken out a large amount of Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade and many Spirit Herbs and Elixir! Seeing Lin Xuankong's resolute expression, these Earth Immortals' brows gradually furrowed. In the eyes of these Third-Grade Earth Immortals, with their status, position, and strength, Mu Shiba should have been willing to share everything he knew, even without them taking out Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade and Spirit Herbs and Elixir! Now, with their deferring to the virtuous, this Mu Shiba actually refused in public? Do Earth Immortals have no dignity?
Guo Haishan, a Third-Grade Earth Immortal of the Western Nether Immortal Sect, revealed a trace of coldness, his eyes narrowing slightly, as he said coldly, "Fellow Daoist Mu, it's your freedom to keep your secrets, but we haven't tried to bully you. We genuinely took out generous gifts to trade for your information! Your firm refusal, does it mean you hold the Western Nether Immortal Sect, the Beimang Immortal Sect, and the West Star Immortal Sect in no regard? Or do you intend to ask for more Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade? Rest assured, as long as you can connect us with that Super Refining Master, we can provide any amount of Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jades. We can even discuss other conditions with you!"
Several other Third-Grade Earth Immortals from various Immortal Sects gradually regained their cold expressions, each looking at Lin Xuankong with particularly icy eyes. These Third-Grade Earth Immortals from the various Immortal Sects had clearly interpreted Lin Xuankong's behavior as arrogance, believing he was over-relying on some hidden leverage!
Even Sect Leader Li of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'Er had deeply furrowed brows at this moment. Beside them, the late-stage Second-Grade Earth Immortal Huang Liutao kept signaling to Lin Xuankong with his eyes. This Earth Immortal Huang Liutao had personally witnessed Galin Bodhisattva of Spirit Platform Buddhism showing great respect to Mu Shiba. Therefore, he naturally couldn't treat Mu Shiba like the other Earth Immortals, who merely saw him as a Ninth-Layer Perfection cultivator with some tricks up his sleeve.
Unfortunately, Lin Xuankong seemed to completely ignore the signals from Earth Immortal Huang Liutao. He raised his head, looking at those Earth Immortals, at Sect Leader Li and Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'Er of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, then calmly said, "I appreciate the goodwill of the Earth Immortal seniors, but unfortunately, I truly cannot make introductions!"
"Very well, very well! You indeed have quite a character! But having such strength, you certainly have the right to be arrogant! However, your arrogance in disregarding us old folks—isn't that a bit too much?" the Third-Grade Earth Immortal Guo Haishan of the Western Nether Immortal Sect said coldly.
Faced with the threat from this Third-Grade Earth Immortal, Lin Xuankong suddenly smiled. He spoke calmly, "It seems the Earth Immortal seniors have misunderstood. The reason I can't make introductions for you or accept your gifts in exchange is because these Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts were not Refined by some Super Refining Master! These relatively crude Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts were actually Refined by me, Mu Shiba. Unfortunately, my Refining wasn't perfect or powerful enough, so they can only exhibit the power of Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts!"
"What? What did you say?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Haishan of the Western Nether Immortal Sect's face tightened. His body's Immortal Yuan showed violent Fluctuation. Evidently, at this moment, this Earth Immortal, who had cultivated for thousands of years, was emotionally stirred and could not maintain his calm demeanor!
The Third-Grade Earth Immortal of the Beimang Immortal Sect looked at Lin Xuankong with surprise. "You mean, you can Refine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts? And you possess seven Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts? This suggests that your success rate in Refining Immortal Artifacts is quite high! Are you speaking the truth?"
Another Third-Grade Earth Immortal of the West Star Immortal Sect also couldn't help exclaiming in astonishment, "How difficult it is to Refine Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts! The effort and time consumed are countless times more than that of cultivating the Martial Dao and Immortal Technique! But I see that in terms of cultivation, you surpass ordinary cultivators in strength and skill... This is truly hard to believe! Is what you said true?"
Lin Xuankong's expression was neither humble nor overbearing. He nodded and said, "Regarding such a matter, how could I, Mu Shiba, casually joke with the Earth Immortal seniors before over one hundred thousand cultivators? This is true, absolutely true. As long as I have sufficient and complete materials, Refining an Initial Tier Immortal Artifact is not a difficult task. The challenge lies in Refining higher-grade Immortal Artifacts, such as Third-Grade, Fourth-Grade, or even High-Grade ones!"
As soon as Lin Xuankong finished speaking, the entire Immortal Sect Martial Arts Arena of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect fell silent once again!
