The young man in the cave originally thought that Lin Feng, who could kill a Human Immortal phantom with one sword, must have extraordinary strength.
Not necessarily ninth or tenth tier, but at least eighth tier.
In the words of the outsiders, that would be level 80.
Otherwise, how could he deal with the powerhouses in future quests?
Those in the quests were several times, even dozens of times stronger than the Human Immortal phantom.
They were Human Immortal avatars, or even Human Immortal clones.
Although they couldn't compare to the true body descending to the mortal world.
They still possessed 10% or even 20% of a Human Immortal's strength.
If a Human Immortal clone with 20% strength appeared, let alone eighth or ninth tier outsiders.
Even tenth tier outsiders might suffer defeat.
But when he scanned Lin Feng's strength.
He discovered.
That the other party wasn't even first tier.
This dashed his hopes.
"Little brother, are you trying to trick me?"
He shook his head in disappointment.
With such strength, he probably used some powerful one-time item to defeat the Human Immortal phantom just now.
If he accepted the quest, he definitely wouldn't be able to complete it later.
If the quest failed, they would have to wait for the next fated person.
He felt a pang of regret.
"Alas, after waiting so long, all I get is an outsider with such weak strength."
When Lin Feng entered the cave.
He saw the scene resembling ruins after a great battle and his eyes lit up.
He didn't expect to find the location of the second part of the quest by such a coincidence.
He politely cupped his hands and asked.
"Your Excellency, do you require my assistance?"
He had originally thought.
That with his outstanding performance just now, he could smoothly receive the quest.
Unexpectedly.
The other party listlessly lifted an eyelid.
And waved his hand.
"Your strength is still a bit lacking.
Go back and cultivate before you return."
Lin Feng was stunned.
"My strength is still not enough?"
He couldn't help but retort, "Your Excellency, did you misjudge? I previously killed a Human Immortal."
"I've even killed a Human Immortal's true body with 50% strength, and I'm still not qualified to accept the quest?"
Before he could finish.
The other party impatiently said, "I saw it. What kind of accomplishment is killing one?"
"To find the key to this seal, you'll have to face many Human Immortals."
He originally wanted to say.
That they would have to face many Human Immortal avatars and clones, not just a phantom from outside.
But he stopped mid-sentence.
He felt that all of this was too distant for this young man who was less than first tier.
Saying it would likely scare him.
He waved his hand again.
"Go back and improve yourself before returning. Your current strength is far too lacking. Read books and find out."
Seeing the other party's firm attitude, Lin Feng had no choice but to give up.
Since the other party knew he had killed a Human Immortal's true body and still said this.
It indicated that the subsequent quests might involve an unusually large number of Human Immortals.
Perhaps he truly was no match for them.
As for the other party seeing through his lack of strength at a glance.
It was likely because his current combat power of several million was not sufficient.
Compared to the quest requirements, he was indeed still far from ready.
Thinking of this, he was suddenly startled.
"Could it be that in the subsequent quests, there might be Earth Immortals?"
His eyes lit up, and he nodded inwardly.
"It should be."
After all, the weakest Earth Immortal had a combat power of over five million.
Even facing one would be a struggle for him now.
If this Earth Immortal brought along a few Human Immortals.
In a chaotic battle, victory or defeat would be uncertain.
Lin Feng felt grateful to the other party.
It seemed.
The other party was sincerely considering his well-being.
He quickly bowed and replied, "Then I thank you for your reminder. I will go back and improve my strength before returning."
"Hmm, go ahead."
The other party grunted listlessly.
As Lin Feng was leaving, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask.
"May I ask Your Excellency, is there any time limit for my cultivation? For example, will the quest fail if I exceed the deadline?"
The young man looked up.
"Hmm, although your strength is a bit lacking, you are ambitious."
He thought for a moment, and with encouragement in his eyes, he generously said.
"Then I'll give you one month. Come back then, and it should be fine."
Lin Feng nodded.
Although he felt he wouldn't need that long.
Within a month, he might be able to face realms above Earth Immortals.
However, since the other party was generous, he couldn't complain.
He nodded in thanks and left.
Outside the cave.
Lin Feng saw that the quest prompt indeed showed that the deadline for accepting the quest had been extended to one month.
He thought to himself.
It seemed his current strength was indeed insufficient.
He needed to improve quickly.
In the Immortal Realm.
In a exquisitely decorated room filled with immortal energy.
A young Daoist priest was intently watching a round bronze mirror.
On the bronze mirror, everything that happened when Lin Feng entered the cave was clearly visible.
He had been somewhat excited when he saw Lin Feng kill a Human Immortal phantom with one blow and enter the cave.
"It seems he's about to accept the quest."
Beside him.
Were as many as six Human Immortals.
The leader was enveloped in immortal power, truly extraordinary.
His aura was no less than that of an ordinary Earth Immortal.
Hearing the Daoist priest's murmur, his eyes were also filled with anticipation.
"It's time for the strongest Human Immortals of our Immortal Realm to show their skills!"
Unexpectedly.
The young Daoist priest was about to wait for Lin Feng to finish accepting the quest and then teleport these six people to the mortal world to teach Lin Feng a lesson.
But unexpectedly.
The young man in the cave claimed Lin Feng's strength was low and rejected him.
This made the young Daoist priest completely lose his composure.
He became so angry that he cursed.
"What kind of trash is this?"
"He's already killed a Human Immortal's true body, what eyes did you use to see that he's weak?"
"Has he been in the mortal world for too long and become an idiot?"
The Human Immortals behind him remained with their eyes on their noses and their noses on their mouths, looking straight ahead.
As if they hadn't heard these angry and vulgar words.
Just then.
The light at the entrance of the room flickered, and an elder Daoist priest entered.
The six Human Immortals respectfully bowed in unison.
The elder Daoist priest smiled slightly and nodded.
He approached the bronze mirror and saw the young Daoist priest in a rage.
He was somewhat curious.
"Junior Brother, why are you so angry?"
The young Daoist priest said angrily, "This quest-giver in the mortal world actually told that outsider to go home and cultivate, and gave him a month's time."
"Senior Brother, you tell me, isn't this delaying our business?"
The elder Daoist priest glanced at the bronze mirror, understood the cause of the matter, and chuckled.
"Junior Brother, calm down. This is not a big deal."
"I happen to know this person. I'll send him a telepathic message to fix it."
The young Daoist priest was overjoyed.
"Then I'll trouble Senior Brother."
The elder Daoist priest smiled faintly and closed his eyes.
A moment later.
He opened his eyes.
Looking at the young Daoist priest's expectant gaze, he comforted him.
"Junior Brother, don't be anxious. I have already communicated with the person in the mortal world."
The young Daoist priest was a little curious.
"Senior Brother, what did you say?"
The elder Daoist priest stroked his beard and said, "I used the will of the Immortal Realm as the reason, stating that there have been recent abnormalities in this seal, and it must be dealt with within three days, so as to shorten the time."
The young Daoist priest's eyes lit up.
"Senior Brother, this move is brilliant!"
"Not only does it not violate heavenly laws, but it also creates a sense of urgency for that outsider."
"Even with an extra three days, he won't be able to contend against the backup we've prepared."
The elder Daoist priest nodded.
"These six people were all carefully selected, and each of them is far stronger than Ling Xu."
"And Ao Sheng is an outstanding figure among Human Immortals, invincible in the same realm, and can even fight across realms."
The leading Human Immortal bowed and smiled, expressing his gratitude.
The elder Daoist priest continued.
"I believe that no matter how fast the outsider improves, he won't be able to undergo a complete transformation within three days."
Everyone present nodded in unison.
"Then let that outsider live for another three days!"
