Volume 1: Earth Volume Chapter 151 The Calamity of the Lin Family!

  "Head of the clan, under your leadership, Lin's family has not become stronger over the years, but instead has declined a lot. I think Lin's family needs new leadership! Lin Tian, if we remove Lin Zhen's position as head of the clan and punish him for killing your father, would you be willing to accept becoming the next head of the Lin family? Ah, the token of the head of the clan should be in your hands, right? I suppose you also found the token of the head of the clan and discovered your father's true identity!"

  Lin Chen's face changed drastically: "Great Elder, I am the patriarch of the Lin family, how can you say withdraw and then withdraw?" "You don't have the Patriarch Token, it was only because we four agreed that you became the patriarch. As long as two of us disagree, your position as patriarch must be given up!" The Great Elder said calmly, "What do you think?" This sentence was naturally directed at the other three elders. "I agree, I also think Lin Tian is more suitable to be the patriarch!" If a Dragon Group special advisor becomes the patriarch of the Lin family, the status of the Lin family will definitely increase greatly!

  The other two elders also nodded!

  Lin Tian coldly smiled as he watched all of this, thinking to himself that these four elders were indeed very pragmatic and ruthless. Lin Zhen wasn't a good person, but at least he had served the Lin family for nearly twenty years, without any merit, but with hard work! However, the four elders simply wanted to replace him just like that!

  Lin Chen angrily said: "Four elders, are you just going to disregard my years of hard work for the sake of Lin Tian? Although I was the one who killed Lin Tian's father, but back then you all also played a part in driving them out of the family. If Lin Tian becomes the head of the clan and gains real power, do you think he will treat you with the same respect as I do?! You may have high abilities, but don't forget that Lin Tian is the special advisor to the Dragon Group, and the Dragon Group has countless experts at his disposal. He can easily call upon a few of them to come over and it would be enough to get you all killed without even leaving a corpse behind! This position may elevate the status of the Lin family, but for you all, it's not beneficial!"

  The four elders' faces changed upon hearing Lin Chen's words, and although they wished the Lin family well, they did not want to end up with no bones left! "Are you done talking nonsense? Your fate has already been decided!" Lin Tian stood tall, looking down on them, "By the way, your information is outdated. Some time ago, I was indeed only at the Earth level of cultivation, but now I have reached the Heavenly level of Great Perfection!" As Lin Tian spoke, the powerful aura of his Heavenly level Great Perfection surged towards Lin Chen and the four elders!

  Four elders had the cultivation of Tianji Early Stage, although their faces were slightly pale, but they could still block Lin Tian's momentum without any problem. However, Lin Chen was only at the Earth Stage Late Stage, and now his chest felt like it had been struck by lightning, and a mouthful of blood spurted out!

  "Heavenly Great Perfection!" The four elders exclaimed in unison, while Lin Chen's eyes were filled with shock and amazement. How could such a cultivation level possibly appear on a twenty-year-old kid?! It was well-known that the vast Lin family's highest cultivation level was only Lin Chen's uncle, who had been closed up for years practicing and ignoring worldly affairs, but he was only at the mid-Heavenly level! The gap between the mid-Heavenly level and the Heavenly Great Perfection was enormous!

  Lin Tian said calmly, "Are you going to surrender or do I need to take action? Believe me, no one can save you from me!" Lin Tian's words were not empty boasts. Even if a Yuan Ying period master went crazy and tried to rescue Lin Zhen and the others, it would be impossible for them to succeed. His current boundary power was over 1 billion and 28 million, while an attack that could destroy a Yuan Ying period master only required 200,000 boundary points! In total, his boundary power was enough to wipe out all the Yuan Ying period masters on Earth four or five times!

  "Lin Tian, even if you don't agree to be the master of the Lin family, do you have to kill us so mercilessly? Although we were not good to your father back then, it was all for the sake of the family's interests!" The Great Elder said nervously. In his eyes, Lin Tian was no longer just a young man in his early twenties. He felt like he was facing a towering mountain that was about to crush him, and the pressure made even someone with heavenly-level cultivation like himself feel terrified!

  "I don't care about family interests, all I know is that because of you, my father died. As a son, if I can't avenge my father's death, how can I stand in this world?!" Lin Tian said with hatred, "All of you, go to hell!" He raised his palm and an invisible wave of energy surged towards the five people like a tidal wave!

  "Ah!" Lin Chen let out a blood-curdling scream, and in the next second, all his meridians were severed, his bones also turned to dust in that soft and dark energy. Lin Chen fell onto the sofa like a puddle of mud, his seven orifices bleeding as he died on the spot!

  "Four elders, go with your clan leader!" Lin Tian pointed his fingers in succession, and the tips of his fingers shot out invisible sword energy, which flashed towards the four elders like lightning!

  Withstanding Lin Tian's palm strength was already a considerable challenge for the four elders, how could they withstand the even more condensed sword energy shot out from Lin Tian's fingertips?! In an instant, the hearts of the four were pierced by the sword energy and they died on the spot! The four early-stage Heaven-level experts were so easily defeated at his hands, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable! "Master, there's nothing strange about this. The gap between early-stage Heaven-level and late-stage Heaven-level is quite large. You can calculate it yourself: an intermediate Heaven-level expert can take on three early-stage Heaven-level experts, a late-stage Heaven-level expert can take on three intermediate Heaven-level experts, and a Heaven-level master can take on three or four late-stage Heaven-level experts. A Heaven-level master's strength can take on more than thirty early-stage Heaven-level experts! You only took on four early-stage Heaven-level experts, so it was naturally easy for you. Of course, in reality, strength can't be calculated like this. There are many factors to consider in battle. Even if an early-stage Heaven-level expert were to kill a late-stage Heaven-level master, it wouldn't be strange!" Little Spirit said in Lin Tian's mind.

  "Xiao Ling, sea of fire!" Lin Tian said lightly, turning around and walking towards the outside of the villa, just in time to collide with the fat man who had rushed in after hearing the sound and feeling that something was wrong, as well as two black-clad bodyguards! "Lin Tian, what have you done?" A raging fire erupted behind Lin Tian, engulfing Lin Zhen's and the four elders' corpses in flames!

  "It seems you said I'd rather die than live!" Lin Tian let out a cold snort, his hand flashing out like lightning to grab the fat man's shoulder, then with a flick of his wrist, the fat man's 200-300 pound body flew over Lin Tian's head and plunged into the sea of flames!

  "Ah!" A shocking scream, probably spread throughout the village. The temperature of the sea of fire was extremely high, and the fat man's clothes and hair instantly caught fire, turning him into a human torch in the blink of an eye. He tried to rush out of the sea of fire, but an invisible force prevented him from escaping!

  Two black-clad bodyguards, their eyes filled with shock and horror, scrambled to roll out of the villa. Lin Tian didn't have any grudges against them, so he let them go!

  Scorched by the flames, that kind of pain truly fulfilled Fatty's previous words - it's better to be dead than alive! In the midst of the flames, Fatty's eyes flashed with a desperate expression, knowing he had no hope of survival. Not wanting to suffer any longer, he suddenly struck his own heart meridian, severing it. His final thought before death was why he had been so foolish as to rush in...

  Lin Tian came out of the villa, and outside the villa, there were already many people surrounding him, but they all kept a safe distance from Lin Tian, not daring to get close. "You, what have you done?" The young man who had looked at Lin Tian with disdain earlier trembled as he spoke from afar.

  Lin Tian ignored him, staring at the burning villa, his childhood memories suddenly came alive. "Dad, mom, I've avenged you, rest in peace!" Lin Tian said silently in his heart. "Master, there's no heaven, but there is a hell, where souls reside, your parents' souls might be in hell, of course, it's more likely that they've been reincarnated!" Xiao Ling said in Lin Tian's mind. "Xiao Ling, does the underworld really exist?" Lin Tian's eyes sparkled with excitement as he asked in his mind.

  "Master, isn't it strange that there is a Hell? The Heavenly Realm and the Divine Realm have one, let alone the Hell which is half a level lower than the Heavenly Realm!" Xiao Ling said. "After a person dies, their soul will disappear after a short period of time, not annihilated, but entered into the Hell. However, most souls that enter the Hell are in a state of confusion. Those confused souls, if there's no special circumstance, will directly enter the Reincarnation Pool for reincarnation. Stronger souls have memories of their past lives, and many do not wish to reincarnate again. They can choose to live in the Hell instead. Of course, it's not a life of immortality, if they don't strengthen their own soul, after a hundred years, their soul energy will be depleted, and that would be true death!"

  "Where is the underworld?" Lin Tian hastily asked in his mind. Xiao Ling chuckled and said: "Master, with your current strength, you can't enter the underworld. The underworld is in a different space. Master, to enter the underworld, you must at least have the cultivation of the combined period. Otherwise, you won't be able to withstand the invasion of the underworld's yin energy. Living people who go there will be invaded by that yin energy and will become zombies in just a few days!"

  "Unity stage? What kind of cultivation is that? Little Spirit, tell me about each stage of cultivation!" Lin Tian furrowed his brow and thought to himself. "Master, the Unity stage is a term used in the Cultivation Civilization, because the Cultivation Civilization is the most mainstream civilization in this universe, so basically, the division of power is based on the Cultivation Civilization's standard. I won't mention anything before the Nascent Soul stage, but after that, there are five stages: Nascent Soul, Leaving the Mundane World, Division of Souls, Unity, and Transcendence. After reaching the late stage of Transcendence and passing the Lightning Tribulation, one can ascend to a higher-level world. Each of the five stages is divided into three small stages: early, middle, and late. Master, if you were to ascend to the next level, it would be the Immortal Realm, but I won't mention the division of power in the Immortal Realm for now!" "No need to say more, I'm already feeling quite defeated. I'm still far from reaching the Nascent Soul stage, and ascending to the Immortal Realm is still a distant dream!" Lin Tian's face revealed a hint of bitter smile, knowing that he was weak, but not realizing just how weak he actually was.

  "Master, don't be dissatisfied, like Zhou Yao's great-grandfather, it took him over a hundred years to reach the Heavenly Great Perfection, but you've only used a little more than two months!" Xiao Ling said, "Moreover, you now have a lot of boundary power, your actual strength is much stronger than what appears on the surface!"

  Lin Tian took a deep breath: "I know, the heart can't eat hot tofu!" "Hehe, master, attitude is important, people who are too proud and arrogant will never become great!" Xiao Ling said.

  "You, you murderer and arsonist! The police won't let you off!" The young man, seeing Lin Tian ignore him, plucked up the courage to shout again. This shout almost made Lin Tian burst out laughing. This was considered a dispute in the martial arts world, but for a large family like the Lin's to have an incident and think of calling the police instead of handling it themselves, this was truly rare!

  "Alright, go ahead and call 110! Let's see if the police dare to arrest me!" Lin Tian laughed loudly, feeling avenged. His mood greatly improved, he couldn't help but tease the young man. "Get out of here, aren't you ashamed enough? Hurry up and go call the Elder!" a middle-aged man scolded.

  "Taishang Elder, yes! Taishang Elder's cultivation is astonishing, he can definitely take down that madman!" The young man exclaimed with excitement, and immediately ran in a certain direction. There, was the place where Lin Tian sensed the mid-stage Heaven-level expert who was in seclusion.

  "Lin Tian, you killed the head of our Lin family and wiped out our four elders. If you don't give us an explanation today, how can our Lin family still stand in the Jianghu?" The middle-aged man said, as more than 20 people with earth-level cultivation surrounded Lin Tian!

  Lin Tian said in a cold voice, "A father's hatred cannot be shared under the same sky. Today's outcome is the result of their past actions. Scram, I don't want to create more bloodshed. If you insist on keeping me here, don't blame me for being impolite. I, Lin Tian, am not a kind person!" "The clan leader has done something, but we have no right to evaluate it. However, today you can't just leave like this. The reputation of the Lin family will plummet from now on!" the middle-aged man said coldly.

  "The Great Elder has arrived, the Great Elder has arrived..."

  In the distance, the young man who had just run out came rushing back, and behind him, an old man in a green robe was following slowly, but what made people feel uncomfortable was that his pace was so slow, yet his speed was not at all slower than the young man running in front!

  "Great Elder!" The Lin family members present all bowed their heads and paid their respects at the same time. The old man nodded slightly, his eyes fixed on Lin Tian without blinking for a long time before saying, "You really look like your father!"
