Chapter 239 Five Candidates for Holy Son
However, just as Lin Hanzhou's immense spiritual power surged into the other party's sea of consciousness...
"Buzz—!"
A strange, restrictive force suddenly erupted from the depths of Liu Qingqing's soul!
"Pfft!"
Liu Qingqing's soul shattered before she could even utter a scream, shattered by the backlash of the restriction.
His soul and spirit were annihilated on the spot, and he was completely lifeless.
Because the backlash from the restriction came so suddenly, even Lin Hanzhou was unable to stop it immediately.
Lin Hanzhou slowly withdrew his hand, looking at the corpse in front of him with its eyes wide open and fear still lingering on its face, and fell into deep thought.
"As expected, the person behind this is very meticulous in their actions."
"Such a sophisticated restriction was planted in her soul beforehand."
Clearly, the other party has no intention of leaving Liu Qingqing behind, such an obvious threat.
If she shows any signs of being searched, the restriction will immediately activate, erasing her along with all her secrets.
Under these circumstances, he was indeed unable to obtain any more information from Liu Qingqing.
Lin Hanzhou couldn't help but frown slightly.
"This is a bit tricky."
"Looks like I'll have to use my brain this time."
Unable to find any other useful clues, Lin Hanzhou could only calm down and carefully search through the original owner's memories that he had already merged with.
In particular, we will focus on the interpersonal relationships of the original owner, Chen Shan.
When discussing the original owner's interpersonal relationships, one must mention the five quasi-holy sons of the Taiyan Holy Land in this generation.
The original owner, Chen Shan, was one of them.
The remaining four are:
Chief Quasi-Holy Son, Li Daoyi.
His grandfather was the Second Elder of the Taiyan Holy Land, second only to the Taiyan Holy Lord and the First Elder!
The opponent is not only the strongest quasi-saint, but also has the largest backing. He will undoubtedly be the next saint.
The second potential Holy Son, Zhao Wen.
His master was the head of the "Hall of Punishment" in the Holy Land, who was in charge of punishments. He was also a terrifying powerhouse at the eighth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, with immense power!
Jiang Chen, the third potential Holy Son.
Behind him is also an eighth-level Holy Land elder, whose father is currently an elder in charge of resources in the Holy Land.
The last one is the only woman among the five.
The fifth quasi-holy son, Su Muqing.
Her support was rather limited, consisting of only an ordinary seventh-level elder master from within the Holy Land.
Among these five quasi-saints, Li Daoyi, Zhao Wen, and Jiang Chen all have terrifying backers within the Holy Land who can command the wind and rain!
They are all strong contenders for the position of the Holy Son.
Among these five, the original owner Chen Shan and Su Muqing appeared somewhat weak and outnumbered.
The backing and influence behind them were clearly incomparable to those three.
Fortunately, the original owner wasn't stupid and didn't have any designs on the position of Holy Son.
He didn't offend the other four prospective saints; on the contrary, he got along quite well with them.
This is precisely why Lin Hanzhou is somewhat puzzled.
Under normal circumstances, the other four quasi-holy sons would have absolutely no reason to take such a huge risk to poison the original owner.
First of all, among these five quasi-holy sons, the original owner, Chen Shan, was the weakest in terms of both his own strength and the power behind him.
He posed no competitive threat to the three top contenders, so killing him would be pointless.
Secondly, there is the Taiyan Holy Land, with its strict rules that have been passed down for tens of thousands of years.
The Holy Land explicitly prohibits any potential Holy Sons from killing or plotting against each other!
The death of a quasi-saint son would definitely cause a huge uproar throughout the entire holy land.
They might even send those eighth-level elders who have been in seclusion for years to personally investigate the matter.
After all, being able to stand out among countless talented disciples in the Holy Land and be named a "quasi-holy son" is a rare achievement.
Which one of them isn't a peerless genius with a heavenly-grade spiritual root?!
As long as these geniuses don't perish along the way, their minimum achievement will be a seventh-level cultivator with a "superior" world foundation.
There is even a possibility of breaking through to the eighth-order "Tribulation Realm".
The fall of any one of these prodigies would be a huge blow to the Taiyan Holy Land!
In the past, the "Battle for the Holy Son" in the Taiyan Holy Land was also full of fierce competition.
However, it is almost impossible for a quasi-saint to perish in a battle.
After much thought, Lin Hanzhou still had no clue about the real culprit hiding behind the scenes.
"Forget it, there are still too few clues, and I can't figure it out."
"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."
"Anyway, with my current strength, within this Taiyan Holy Land, as long as those eighth-level old monsters don't personally take action, no one can do anything to me."
Lin Hanzhou decided to give up on the matter.
Now, because of his sensitive status as a "quasi-holy son," he is not in a position to leave the holy land at will to break through to the seventh rank.
They could only stay in the holy site for a while and observe the situation.
Fortunately, according to the original owner's memories, the [Void Seed] secret realm, which is specifically used to select holy sons, will open in one week.
At that time, these five quasi-saints, all of whom have reached the peak of the sixth-order Void Return Realm, will travel together to that secret realm.
In this secret realm, they must compete for the only "Supreme Void Seed".
Whoever obtains it will be able to open up the supreme Void Realm, which is the foundation of the supreme world.
Whoever can open up a top-grade Void Realm will be able to create a huge gap between themselves and the other quasi-saints and become a true saint.
Furthermore, they will remain in seclusion in that secret realm for a hundred years.
They all used the "power of the Void Origin" in the secret realm to break through to the seventh level in one fell swoop.
For Lin Hanzhou, this trip to the secret realm was an excellent opportunity.
He can also take this opportunity to break through to the seventh level safely and steadily in that secret realm.
As for the so-called "top-grade Void Seed" and the position of Holy Son.
Lin Hanzhou glanced at his [Backstab] talent, which he was already eagerly awaiting.
"Hehehe..."
Thinking this, Lin Hanzhou raised his hand and flicked out a small ball of ordinary spiritual fire, which landed on Liu Qingqing's unseeing corpse.
"call--"
The moment the spiritual fire touched the corpse, it burned it to ashes.
Lin Hanzhou naturally didn't need to worry about causing any unnecessary trouble by killing the other party.
The other party was nominally the original owner's personal maid, but in reality, she was no different from a personal item.
Her life and death were in the hands of the "quasi-holy son".
Let alone one death, even if ten people died in a day, no one would ask a single question.
In the cultivation world where the strong are respected, the weak are not entitled to any human rights.
