《Justice of Hidden Heaven》


 C1

    Azure Silver Country.


    General''s Estate.


    Squeak...


    In an inconspicuous corner, there was a dark room. It was simple and remote. If one did not search carefully, it would be difficult to find it. A servant opened the door lightly, and a ray of blinding sunlight shone through the gap in the door, causing the youth who was sitting with his back against the wall to extend his hand to block it.


    Young master, it''s time to eat. It''s been three days since the last drop of water fell.


    The manservant brought the food into the house and closed the door, once again isolating the golden sunlight from the outside. With his sneaky look and fair and square behavior, he took the tray to the youth and put it down.


    Lin Qi rubbed his eyes as he looked at the leftovers on the tray. He knew that the manservant was lying. His father would probably kill him now. Why would he be worried about his body?


    "Ah Shan, you don''t need to say anything good about my father in front of me. Our relationship can no longer be reconciled. As for whether I live or die, he won''t even bother to ask." As Lin Qi spoke, he kept his fists clenched in front of his mouth and coughed lightly from time to time. Upon closer inspection, his face was pale and weak, as if he was suffering from internal injuries.


    He tried to channel the spiritual power within his body, only to discover that it had completely disappeared. He had almost forgotten that he was now just a lowly mortal.


    The house was closed, and once the door was closed, not even half a ray of sunlight could enter. Only weeds were strewn about, and bug rats were rampant as they scanned this small dark room. For the first time in his life, he felt despair and darkness.


    Ah Shan knelt on the grass, looking at the young master who was getting thinner and thinner, he sighed deeply and said: "Master also has his own difficult points, Master''s way of doing things is too extreme, I also know that young master wants to recover his strength as soon as possible, but you can''t go snatch the elixirs that are worth thousands of gold."


    "They came looking for us?" Lin Xing took a deep breath. This sentence was a waste of time. The Minister of State and his father had always been at loggerheads and would not let go of any opportunity to trip his father, who was also the Great General of the Azure Silver Country.


    "I didn''t. I heard that the Prime Minister spoke fiercely in the imperial court today and gathered several ministers to impeach and falsely accuse the old master. When the old master returned, his face was ashen, and he was sitting alone in his room, who knows what he was doing." Ashan Road.


    His eyes were so calm that it was frightening as he said, "When I entered the Heaven Sect in the past, the Prime Minister even wagged his tail and begged me, not to mention his appearance in front of my father. Now that I have turned into a mortal, he began to fall down and beat me up."


    "It''s a pity for young master''s body. If you were born in ancient times, you would have definitely become a powerful expert. But now, your Ancient God''s body has been gradually rejected by the heavens and won''t be able to return to its former glory." Ashan sighed.


    "Ancient god body? The mistake was when I was born, or should not have been born. " Lin Qi self-deprecated, and a mournful expression appeared on his delicate and pretty face.


    He then asked, "Has my Master sent someone else to seek compensation?"


    "Yes, he comes every month. Our General''s Estate is going to go bankrupt." Ashan sighed helplessly.


    He would rather not have the Ancient God''s body, and would rather start from the cultivation of a mortal. From the moment he was born, he had caused the death of his mother, and in the end, his entire family had been torn apart by him.


    Lin Xing''s mother was three years pregnant before she was born. When she gave birth, the green light shone brightly, shaking half of the Kingdom of Qingyin. His mother died in childbirth, but even so, his father didn''t blame him.


    Because he was born with an ancient god''s body, he was born with a strong spiritual energy. When he was two years old, he directly broke through to the second level of the Soul Formation stage, which was something many people would find difficult to cultivate.


    The truth was exactly like that. However, there was an elder in the Sky Sect who refused to believe it. He had taken Lin Xing as his direct disciple when he was five years old, and brought him back to the sect to be nurtured, even at the cost of the Sky Sect''s endless resources and all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures.


    Lin Xing''s contribution to Lin Xing could be described as painstakingly exhausting everything he had, and Lin Xing did not disappoint his master. At the age of sixteen, he had already stepped into the Heaven Smiting Stage and activated the Heavenly Cauldron''s descent, becoming the only Ancient God body in the past ten thousand years to break the curse.


    However, just as his Master was feeling overjoyed, a heavenly tribulation descended from the dome of heaven and struck Lin Xing. Although it did not turn him into ashes, all the years of training had gone down the drain.


    Not to mention him, even his father and master wouldn''t be able to accept such an outcome. Even the people from the Sky Sect were disheartened, and felt that the might of the heavens was so terrifying that it couldn''t be reversed.


    As the saying goes, the Ancient God of Cheng Yu lost because of the Ancient God, which was exactly how he had been for the past eighteen years.


    In the end, Lin Qi dragged his tired body back to the general''s manor. There was not a single person in the manor who came out to greet him. Compared to when he had come back, it seemed so empty and lonely.


    Not long after he returned, another incident that angered the entire General''s Estate occurred. The blame was all placed on Lin Xing.


    It turned out that his Master, the Elder from the Descending Heavens Sect, had sent someone to the General''s Estate to ask for the treasures that had once been wasted on Lin Xing. His Master had said that the resources that had been wasted on Lin Xing must be "doubled" in order for the General''s Estate to repay them.


    In his grief and indignation, Lin Xing had cut off all ties with his Master. However, he and the general''s household did not dare to not pay their debts.


    The Azure Silver Country was only a member of one of the many subordinate states of the Heaven''s Expanse School, and they were also the weakest of them all. They even had the control of the country''s ruler, so even though their father, Lin Shen, was a great general, he didn''t dare to resist and his position was in a precarious situation.


    "Cang Yushi is working too hard, it''s much more painful than destroying our general''s manor. Now that everyone in our manor is saving money, we have to pay off a large amount of debt to him every month and treat us as a bank." Ashan was filled with grief and indignation.


    "It''s all my fault." Lin Qi blamed himself. He had thought about suicide, but his death could not save him from defeat. If he could not prove anything, then he would be condemned.


    "Young master, how can we blame you for this? Cang Yushi clearly knew that the Ancient God''s body was irreversible, but he refused to believe that it was wrong for him to accept you as his direct disciple. In the end, it was all for nothing, and we still had to pay for it." Ashan said angrily. Sometimes, thinking about it, if the young master did not have the Ancient God''s body, with the resources of the General''s Estate, it was not impossible for him to cultivate to a slightly stronger cultivator.


    Even if he was born with the Ancient God''s physique, he could still cultivate to the Heaven Smiting Stage. This was already considered one of the top levels in the Azure Silver Country, but he still had to fight his way out with the azure jade stone.


    Ah Shan picked up a bowl of rice, placed a pair of chopsticks on top, and said to Lin Xing, "Young master, you are the lord''s only son, he won''t do anything to you, hurry up and eat. This is something the young master personally cooked for you, ever since you came home, the young master has only taken good care of you ¡­"


    "Pa ¡­"


    Before Ashan could finish his sentence, Lin Xing knocked over the food on the tray, causing him to be stunned on the spot with a smile.


    He asked, "Young master, you ¡­"


    "Do you know who instigated me to steal the elixir of the Prime Minister?"


    "Who?"


    "That''s the voice." Lin Xing calmly said.


    "This... How could it be him? " Ah Shan was startled, he could not believe what he had heard. The young master had always been refined and respectful towards his subordinates, unlike the bad guys in his heart.


    After Lin Qi returned home, he was naturally unwilling to become a mortal. He had always been thinking of ways to improve his strength, and the best way to increase his cultivation was to swallow elixirs. Two days ago, Lin Fei-ming had told him that the Prime Minister had a rare Hundred Mother Flower, which was a great tonic. It told him in detail where and when to go and snatch it.


    As a mortal, how could Lin Xing possibly be a match for these warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles? He was severely injured in just two moves, and in the end, he was still one of the eight great elephants, so Gu Yuan, who had a very close relationship with him, passed by and saved him.


    There were eight young generals under Lin Shen''s command. Before this, they were all orphans and were adopted by Lin Shen as his adopted sons. Each of them were powerful and had contributed greatly to the Azure Silver Country. They were known as the Eight Ascendants.


    Mu Feiming and Gu Yuan were the Eight Elephants Two. They lived in the general''s manor together, and the servants addressed them as Young Master.


    "In the future, all the food he cooks will be thrown away. "If he poisons me to death, Ah Shan, you won''t be able to escape death." Lin Qi said coldly.


    "Yes, yes, Young Master, I''ll remember." Ashan was trembling in fear. Under his eyes, he could not help but sweat profusely.

 C2

    In the recent days, everyone in the general''s manor was living a life of depression. Every month, they had to pay a large amount of debt to the Sky Sect as per regulations, thus they had to be frugal and save as much as possible.


    As for the culprit, he was currently locked up in the small dark room. When he thought of this, he gnashed his teeth in anger. If he wasn''t the only son of the general, he would have been minced into pieces long ago.


    The genius that the General''s Estate was once proud of had ultimately become the scourge that pushed the General''s Estate into a pit of fire, causing people to be unable to help from sighing with grief and indignation.


    Lin Xing stayed in his room, completely unmoved by the outside world. He had been busy with body tempering and bones tempering every day for the last few days. 100 meridians ¡­


    Before, his cultivation speed was like a thousand miles per day and his basics weren''t solid at all. Now that he was a mortal, the ancient gods lost all their advantages. The only way out for him was to refine his body.


    "Carrier Realm... Did I fail? But without spiritual energy, he is still a mortal. "


    When he thought here, he sighed deeply. His face was filled with unwillingness as he clenched his fists tightly.


    The carrier realm was just the first realm in the cultivation system. In fact, it was a simple tempering of the physique. Only when a certain degree was reached could one absorb the spirit energy and inject it into the body.


    He diligently trained, and slept for only four hours every day. The rest of the time he spent on body forging, and the results were remarkable; his skin color had undergone an obvious change.


    His whole body seemed to have grown taller, his shoulders wider. In the short period of time in this small dark room, his temperament had changed. The edges gradually flattened out.


    As he immersed himself in cultivation, his vision became increasingly dark, as if he had arrived in a dark space. He did not even sense this slight change and was sure that he was still in this room.


    In the distant room, a gleaming, cold metal burst out of the darkness, approaching him from a distance. Finally, it stopped right in front of him. Looking carefully, it was a metal weapon. It looked like a mace, with a length of half a meter. Its surface was covered with a layer of luster, making it look rather strange.


    Lin Xing''s body suddenly trembled. He suddenly remembered that this was the thing that followed the divine retribution into his body.


    He clearly remembered when he had advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage. He had summoned the Heaven Cauldron to descend upon him, causing a heavenly tribulation to seemingly crush the heavens and strike him. Although it didn''t kill him, it made his years of bitter training disappear instantly, turning him into a mortal. When he woke up and calmed himself down, he discovered that there was an additional item in his soul cave, which was this golden mace in front of him.


    He had tried to activate the mace, but it stood still as a dead thing, and he did not want it to come to him now, glowing with spirituality.


    The golden mace gently trembled, emitting a ringing sound that resonated with the ear-splitting metallic sound. Then, it turned around and slowly flew backwards.


    When Lin Qi saw this, he was shocked. Without any hesitation, he followed him. This golden mace was not normal, as if it was guiding him somewhere.


    Not long after, a neat red character appeared in the dark space. It was hanging in the air, giving off a strong and bloody scent.


    Obviously, these characters were all made of fresh blood. It was as if they were made of iron, as if they were made of silver. Lin Xing''s knees involuntarily trembled, and he forcefully resisted the urge to kneel down.


    After observing for a while, his expression became one of shock. A crazy and obsessed expression appeared on his face. At the same time, his eyes were filled with determination, and they were shining with a new light.


    "The Sky Concealment Technique ¡­" I never would have thought that the owner of this golden mace would actually be Hierarch Hidden Heaven.


    He was overjoyed and read the words again. These words recorded in detail the life history of Hierarch Cangtian, as well as the various incidents and processes of creating the Hidden Heaven Technique.


    In the short span of twenty years, I have risen to the vast earth, but the laws of the heavens cannot be shaken. I, the sovereign, will go all out, merging my will into the Dao of the Heavens, causing my sect to flourish and not weaken. However, I can only rely on you, the younger generation, to grow strong, and by the time I fused my will into the Dao of the Heavens, I had already fallen.


    This was the last line of information written by Zang Tian Zun. When Lin Xing read to this point, his blood boiled with admiration for Zang Tian''s courage and temperament.


    According to his knowledge, the Hidden Sky Sect only appeared on this land 800 years ago, but in such a short period of time, Hierarch Cang Tian was able to make this sect prosper. His disciples used trillions of them to become the sixth largest cultivation system along with the Celestial Sect, Divine Arts, Underworld Sect, Absolute Body, and Long Yan.


    It turned out that he had abandoned his physical body and fused his will into the world''s rules, in order to preserve the prosperity of the Hidden Heaven Technique. Although he had fallen, the Hidden Heaven Technique had been circulating ever since, and it was becoming more and more popular.


    However, in the end, there was no exception, no one that succeeded. Only the Heaven Repairing Technique was an anomaly, and it was able to forcefully squeeze into the laws of this world and travel side by side with the five paths that existed since time immemorial.


    Even so, the Hidden Heaven Technique was still miserably excluded. Those billions of disciples in this vast and boundless land were simply insignificant.


    But even so, it had once been a sensation on Hierarch Cang Tian who was worthy of everyone remembering his name.


    The Azure Silver Country was under the control of the Deities Templar. In this area, Lin Xing had never seen or heard of anyone who hid themselves.


    What made Lin Xing even happier was that the next part of the text explained the cultivation method of the Hidden Heaven Spell. The Hidden Heaven Spell was a heaven-defying technique. What he lacked right now was the courage to defy the will of the heavens.


    At least. He had to return to the Heaven Smiting Realm first.


    He didn''t say much, but the mace slightly shook, and couldn''t wait for him to practice the Sky Concealment Technique. His voice sounded as if it was filled with joy and intelligence.


    Currently, there were many cultivation methods of various sizes in this world, but only these six were able to stand out and were regarded as the correct path in this world.


    However, everything remained the same, as all techniques in this world must be cultivated according to the only cultivation system that was recognized by the heaven and earth. That was the only way to transcend the mortal world and step onto the great path of the Immortal God.


    No matter how strange or powerful the sect or cultivation method was, it had to be based on spiritual energy.

 C3

    This space was pitch-black and ice-cold, as if it was a world of its own. The spiritual energy in this realm was surging violently, to the point where it seemed endless.


    As he walked forward, he was cultivating as well. According to the records, he practiced the Hidden Heaven Technique. With each step, the symbols around his body gradually became densely packed. Before long, they shone brightly, appearing exceptionally resplendent in this pitch-black area.


    When he first started cultivating, there were many runes, but it was just some movements and techniques. However, after further interacting with it, Lin Xing realized how profound the Hidden Heaven Technique was. The more he tried to understand it, the more terrifying he felt.


    In his heart, he felt great admiration for Hierarch Cang Tian. Of course, the person who could create the sixth meridian naturally couldn''t be described as an ordinary person.


    Compared to the tyrannical and fierce divine arts that followed the steps to cultivate, this technique was more mysterious and mysterious, as if it had stepped into a vast universe, and was trying to understand the limits of the universe and its hidden powers.


    Deep within Cang Tian, the spiritual energy imperceptibly poured into his body. The lifeless sea of consciousness once again began to radiate with vitality and vitality. At this moment, it actually began to slowly recover, and the spiritual energy was no longer leaking out as it was completely stored away.


    His body trembled as ecstasy filled his face. He hadn''t felt this power in a very long time.


    At that time, he was struck by lightning, and everything in his body was destroyed by the divine retribution. All of his spiritual energy was erased, and his sea of consciousness was also severely injured, leaving behind scars that couldn''t be healed.


    At this moment, the divine reverse of the Hidden Heaven Spell didn''t trigger any spiritual power that was as tyrannical as divine power. Instead, it was gentle and filled with valiance.


    He was shocked and amazed, but even more so, he was ecstatic. He wanted to look up at the sky and roar.


    He wanted to tell his father the good news right away, so that the general''s estate would be happy with him. However, after thinking for a moment, he held himself back.


    First of all, after experiencing such a great fall, he had clearly seen many people. Many things happened in the peaceful Green Silver Country, but in reality, there were undercurrents. Even in this mansion, danger lurked everywhere. Furthermore, after he became a mortal, Lin Shen rarely visited him. In the two years he had been back home, he had seen her three times and never once had a good expression on his face.


    Perhaps, his father had already given up on him.


    In Lin Shen''s eyes, Lin Xing was not even comparable to a foster son. At the very least, the Eight Elephants were still able to support his image, giving him a bit of authority in the military and in the imperial court. Not making Lin Shen lose face was already a blessing in disguise.


    Retracting his thoughts, he started to train even harder, immersing himself in the endless darkness and never to return.


    It was unknown how much time had passed before someone pushed open the door. He was immediately startled awake, and his mind abruptly left the dark space, returning to reality.


    The man was short and dressed in servant clothes. It was Ashan. He pushed open the door and came in with a tray in his hands. The food on the tray was much better than usual. It was rich. There was wine and meat.


    Lin Qi looked at Ah Shan''s expression and was slightly surprised. There must be a story.


    "Young master, this is the food I brought for you. The lord left on the expedition, and now the mansion''s manager is not as serious as before. Hurry up and eat." Ah Shan chuckled.


    "Left? Although I am being held here, I have heard a bit about the affairs of the outside world. Lin Qi furrowed his brows. He knew that things were not as simple as A Shan''s, but rather, very deep.


    "I am not too sure either. Master left with reluctance this time and only took four Young Generals with him. And it''s a slow journey, only 80 miles in a day. " Although Ashan was a slave, for the sake of Lin Xing, he had thoroughly investigated these military affairs.


    In the past, I was a disciple of the Sky Sect, so the Prime Minister did not dare to push his father aside. But now that I had fallen, he did not have any scruples anymore, and as I had expected, the Prime Minister of the United Nations had deliberately ordered my father to go out to fight. Lin Xing guessed.


    "Young master, your guess isn''t unreasonable. The lord wields authority over the imperial court and the majority of the army of the Azure Silver Country. The king and the prime minister are extremely wary of him, but they''re not afraid of forcing the lord to do that sort of thing ¡­" Ashan wanted to say something, but he hesitated. It was such a disrespectful thing to say that he did not dare to continue.


    After a long time, he sighed and said, "Father is the Great General of the Kingdom, but he would not dare to act recklessly. After all, the King of the Kingdom has the backing of the Skysplit Sect, and I''m guessing that the Emperor and the Minister of the Kingdom must have some trump card or weakness to fight against Father, to make my father be armed and not dare to make a move."


    At this point, Lin Xing''s heart was completely disheartened. Before his father left for the battlefield, he had actually cast a glance at his father from the future. His heart was filled with mixed feelings, as if his heart had died.


    "Young master, once the old master leaves, no one in this house has the right to restrain you. After you finish eating, come out and don''t suffer in this dark room where even servants don''t live." Ashan said with a smile.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows as a sense of danger arose in his heart. With his father gone, it was clear that some people no longer had any scruples. No one could protect him anymore.


    Even though he was a mortal, he was still the general''s only son. It was impossible for him to say that he was so old that he would never recognize the general. Some people in the manor understood this point, so they did not dare to act.


    He asked, "Did Ling Feiming and Gu Yuan go with them?"


    "Neither of these young generals followed." However, Gu Yuan had always been the archenemy of the young master, and from the time he was young, he had always been unconvinced of Lin Xing''s feelings, so what was the point of worrying about his condition?


    So Gu Yuan was here. That was good.


    Lin Xing did not say anything, but he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At least Gu Yuan would not harm him. However, it was hard for Lin Qi to say anything about that. After that previous lesson, he had no choice but to beware of this person.


    Right now, his strength was low, and he had just started cultivating the sky technique, so he could only be considered as someone who had a basic understanding of its cultivation process and steps. Although he had comprehended a few things, his strength had not improved by much, and compared to the State Protector Eight Elephants, the gap was not small at all.


    He had already steeled his heart. If there was an emergency, he would immediately put down his face and ask Gu Yuan for help. Gu Yuan had been unconvinced with him since he was young. He was extremely proud and arrogant among the Eight Elephants. However, he only wanted a mentality that surpassed his, not his life.


    In the worst case scenario, he could just rip off the skin on his face and burn incense to save his life. Besides, after he had fallen into the mortal world, he had suffered a lot of sarcasm. What else was there that he couldn''t let go of?

 C4

    As it turned out, Lin''s hunch was correct. The crisis had arrived in this small dark room on the very night his father left for the war.


    Before Ah Shan left, he repeatedly urged Ah Shan to leave, but was politely rejected. Those people wanted to kill him, but wasn''t he also waiting for this opportunity?


    After cultivating for a few days, his strength hadn''t increased significantly. However, each move contained the power of the law of the underworld. It was several times more profound than the divine arts. Moreover, what was supposed to come would eventually come. Dodging was useless, so it was better to just face it calmly.


    As soon as the curtain of night fell, two shadows flashed outside the room and were immediately noticed by Lin Qi. However, his eyes were slightly closed, pretending to be asleep, and he did not open his eyes.


    A plume of white smoke blew through the gap between the door and door. Lin Qi immediately shut his mouth and nose. That was medicinal smoke, it could instantly make a person fall asleep like a dead pig.


    At the same time, he could not help but sigh with emotion. This group of people was simply too careful. First, they stayed in the general''s manor and did not dare to touch him.


    He fell to the ground on his side, pretending to be hit. In fact, when the smoke entered his nostrils, it made him dizzy, but it was quickly dispersed by the trembling noise. The drug was instantly useless, the sound came from the golden mace, full of spirit, and at that moment, the protector was a powerful and strange weapon.


    "Motherf * cker. This boy is truly a piece of trash. He fell for it so easily."


    The door was pushed open and the bright moonlight shone into the room. Two masked men walked in. Their facial features were obscured, and their bodies were big and muscular. They were two meters tall. One of them stepped forward and kicked Lin Xing''s body as he sneered in disdain.


    "Cut the crap. It''s more important to get down to business. The general''s residence is heavily guarded and can''t stay for long." The other man''s face turned serious as he picked up Lin Xing like a chick. He then walked out of the room.


    The man behind him had a grave expression on his face as he said coldly, "If Master had not wanted to kill him himself, I could have done it here."


    Lin Qi fainted from the herbal smoke. Killing him was easier than killing an ant, but they did not dare to disobey the master''s orders. They quickly walked out of the mansion.


    Along the way, Lin Xing slightly opened his eyes and narrowed them into a slit. Then, he immediately closed his eyes. It was very obscure, but the two muscular men did not notice it as they ran in a serious manner.


    His mind went cold. Although these two men couldn''t see their facial features, he could tell from their bodies and voices that they were definitely not from the general''s manor. But from their appearances, they seemed to know the situation inside the manor.


    Then there was only one explanation, there was a spy in the mansion.


    Moreover, the usually heavily guarded General''s Estate was currently devoid of any guards or servants, and it was deathly silent.


    There could only be one possibility, and that was that someone had plotted this carefully.


    Lin Xing felt his heart clench, and his heart felt as though it was being sliced by knives. He really didn''t believe it. Was this his house?


    At the corner of the house, there were two horses. One of the men threw Lin Xing onto the horse''s back and mounted it. With a wave of his whip, they rushed out of the city towards the outskirts of the city.


    After about an hour of galloping, two strong men woke up in a barren mountain while riding a handsome horse.


    The surroundings were filled with ravines, mountain valleys, hidden valleys, and winding paths. Two people had already been waiting here for quite some time in an open area.


    The two were both females, a young girl and a black clothed young woman. Strangely, the two of them stood quite far apart, especially the young girl. There was vigilance hidden within her eyes, and they did not chat too much.


    "Master, we''ve brought this piece of trash for you. What do you think we should do with it? Call him."


    As the two hulks approached, they took off their black masks, beards all over their face, and threw Lin Xing directly on the ground. They then dismounted their horses and respectfully greeted the young lady.


    Staring at Lin Xing who was lying on the ground like a dead pig, he coldly said: "The famous and mysterious genius of the past, now that she has fallen to this stage, it is truly a retribution. Back then, when you were showing off your strength, did you know the expression on my face while I was hiding at the side admiring you? But now that the heavens have opened their eyes to you, crippling your cultivation even further than a dog. Right now, I only have endless loathing for you, so if I kill you, your Lin Family will be wiped out. In the future, who dares to oppose my Fang Family in the Azure Silver Country? "


    Lin Xing''s eyes did not open, but from the voice, he knew that this young girl was the daughter of the Minister of State, Fang Jing. According to his tone, he had been infatuated with him before. This was something he had never expected. Now, his only other emotion was disgust. As he finished his sentence, his voice grew colder and colder.


    The black clothed young woman stood in the distance and couldn''t help but be slightly moved. She asked in surprise, "So he is that mysterious ancient genius. This is really unexpected." "But then again, Miss Fang, why didn''t you tell me his identity earlier?"


    "You are right. Black Wind Mountain and the country leader have an agreement to not invade each other, even if it is Lin Shen, he has no right to call on troops. If he wants to take revenge, he can only come to Black Wind Mountain to find me." The woman in black stared at Fang Jing, and then sneered, "But what if Lin Shen comes to take revenge on me? This was his only son, and the risk was too great. And don''t you know that, based on seniority, he''s still my junior brother Bu Tiantong? "


    When Fang Jing heard that, she said disdainfully, "You really know how to pull strings. Back then, you were just an outer disciple in the Heaven Sect, and this trash is still the head disciple. If you say you''re his senior, would you be able to do so?" Furthermore, you have long been expelled from the sect.


    As soon as she said that, Bu Tiantong''s expression clearly darkened. If she had not been ordered to come, she would have slapped Fang Jing twice already.


    "Then on this matter, whoever you choose to do it with, I won''t take the blame." she said coldly.


    "Then what do you want?" Fang Jing asked calmly.


    "Five hundred more spirit crystals." Bu Tiantong sneered.


    "What?! Are you crazy?!" Not only was Fang Jing stunned, but even the two hulks were furious. This was truly an exorbitant demand.


    "Otherwise, there''s nothing to discuss." With that, Bu Tiantong turned around and was about to leave.


    "Hold on." In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, "If I promise you, then five hundred. But you must promise me, after I kill him, you will take his corpse with you and hang it on Black Wind Mountain."


    As long as the Lin Family could be exterminated, no matter how much cost they had to pay, it would be worth it. Thinking of this, a more vicious plan emerged in Lin Dong''s mind.


    "You want to ¡­" Bu Tiantong was startled. This young girl in front of him was not any less vicious than her.


    "You don''t need to worry about that. Just do as I say. When the time comes, I have my own ways." An intense venom flashed across Fang Jing''s eyes.


    Black Wind Mountain was a forbidden area in the Green Silver Country, it was home to many experts from the underworld over the years, and there were also many rare experts who were extremely dangerous, and their killing intent was as deep as the sea. To the people from the underworld, Black Wind Mountain was undoubtedly a precious land filled with wind and water, even if ordinary people stepped in, they would not be able to return.


    It was a dark area with a large number of groups of people. It was also the best place for criminals from the Azure Silver Country to seek refuge.


    Fang Jing had killed Lin Xing, and Bu Tiantong was left with no choice but to hide behind Black Wind Mountain. Even the Great General of the Kingdom of Chen was helpless to do anything to her.

 C5

    According to Fang Jing''s plan, Lin Shen had experienced the pain of losing her son. Even if it was due to face, she would definitely take her revenge. But before the agreement was made, he had no right to mobilize his army and could only go to Black Wind Mountain by himself. Even if he did not seek revenge, he should have taken the corpse back.


    It could be said that he was meticulous in his calculations. Fang Jing had planned for Lin Shen and would definitely go.


    As the plan formed in her mind, a cold smile appeared on her face. Once she succeeded, it would be easy for the Fang family to obtain the River Mountain of the Azure Silver Country. Everyone would have to submit to her.


    He raised his head and looked at the moon hanging in the sky. A cold breeze caressed his hair, and with a gentle step, he approached Lin Qi, exuding a murderous aura.


    "It''s still too early to morning. During this time, I will torture you well and I will cut your bones into pieces. Of course, don''t worry, I will perfectly preserve your face. After all, your father still has to recognize you."


    At the same time, he drew out a flexible sword from his waist. The crisp sound of the sword vibrating resounded through the air, causing one to shudder in fear.


    Bu Tiantong was emotionally moved. Fang Jing was extremely vicious; she did not seem like a lady who lived like a prince. She was not one bit inferior to a person like her who spent all her time on Black Wind Mountain.


    Lin Qi was lying on the ground with his eyes closed and a peaceful expression on his face. It was as if he was in a deep sleep, oblivious to the bloody scene that was about to occur.


    A sinister look flashed across her face. Even though Lin Xing was now a mortal, he was still a prodigy that stood at the peak of the younger generation. Just thinking about him dying with his own hands was enough to excite anyone.


    "Pfft ¡­"


    When she was half a meter away from Lin Qi, the sword in Fang Jing''s hand trembled. It was as if she was stabbing through the void, aiming straight at Lin Qi''s shoulder. She planned to cut off one of his arms first and slowly torture him.


    Puff ¡­


    A sword slashed out like lightning, and at this critical moment, Lin Xing suddenly opened his eyes. His reaction was extremely fast, and he did not dodge. He used two fingers to catch the flexible sword.


    The sudden turn of events caught Fang Jing off guard. She did not expect Lin Xing to be so patient. He did not even bat an eyelid when he fell off the horse. He had hidden himself well.


    Just as quickly as that. Lin Xing gripped the flexible sword in his hand, and with a slight tremble, the flexible sword broke into pieces with a ''chi'' sound. Before Fang Jing could react, the broken flexible sword was sent flying backwards.


    At such a close distance, even Fang Jing was not on her guard. She had been shocked by the sudden turn of events and had no time to dodge.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Screams could be heard as the flexible sword slashed across Fang Jing''s face, leaving a trail of blood as she quickly retreated.


    In an instant, his entire face was drenched in blood. That scream was not painful, but rather angry. The wound was very deep, and it was almost a disfigurement. To a young girl in the prime of her life, her beauty was extremely important. Suddenly, his body trembled as he crazily and viciously shouted, "Kill, kill him! No, I want him to live a life worse than death. "


    The two hulks first went forward to support the nearly crazed Fang Jing. The latter waved her arms and immediately ordered, charging towards Lin Xing at the same time.


    The two were extraordinarily strong, just like wild beasts that caused large amounts of air to flow. The pressure from the two was so great that it almost caused people to suffocate on the spot. ) They all had the strength of the second level of the Soul Formation Stage, so their spirit energy was madly revolving.


    Bu Tiantong, who was standing to the side, did not move as she watched the show. She was surprised by Lin Qi''s sudden attack. She had been patiently waiting for this fatal blow for a long time. She touched her cheek, causing her to feel a lingering fear. It was a disfigurement that was even more painful than killing Fang Jing.


    Without waiting for Lin Xing to stand up, the two hulks arrived in an instant, bringing with them a bloody aura, each of them appearing extraordinary. With a slap of the palm, an ancient tree was uprooted. The scene was incomparably shocking.


    However, Lin Qi was not a pushover. Even though the two of them were like two giant beasts, agile and full of explosive power, he still easily dodged and retreated.


    Seeing that they had missed their target, the two of them once again charged forward. At the same time, they threw a punch at the ground.


    Immediately, the earth trembled like an earthquake. The surrounding flowers, plants, and trees trembled, and the ground violently shook.


    Even though Lin Qi had leapt into the air, he no longer dodged and chose to attack.


    As he charged into the formation, his moves flowed like the flowing clouds and flowing water. Although each move seemed slow, it was actually extremely fast. It was like lightning cutting through the sky, causing a light sound to ring through the air. Under the combined attack of the two strong men, he was actually able to move with ease.


    In less than two exchanges, the two hulks felt even harder and more shocked. It was so tiring to take care of a piece of trash. Not long after, their bodies were drenched in sweat as if they had been sucked dry.


    On the surface, Lin Qi''s moves looked ordinary, but each of them contained the art of concealing the sky. Don''t underestimate an ordinary attack. After two rounds, even these two strong men would not be able to withstand it.


    "Two buckets of rice, what use do I have you two for!"


    Clutching his bloodied face, Fang Jing''s expression was ice-cold and filled with fury. She then shifted her gaze to Bu Tiantong and coldly said, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and help."


    Bu Tiantong sneered and stood by idly, saying, "Miss Fang, you gave the wrong order." I only promised you that I would take the blame, but I didn''t say that I will help you take care of him. "


    "Let me cripple him. I''ll add another five hundred Spirit Crystals."


    Fang Jing gritted her teeth. Lin Xing had angered her, and she must make him suffer a fate worse than death. He had to give up five hundred spirit crystals, no longer looking as heartbroken as before.


    "Alright, I''ll take this job as well."


    Bu Tiantong smiled in satisfaction. This was exactly what she wanted. To take someone''s money, to help them get rid of this disaster. She had already made it clear that there was no reason for her to not make a move.


    She was too fast for the naked eye to catch, and before Fang Jing could react, she was already in front of Lin Qi.


    Right at this moment, the two hulks were completely paralyzed on the ground. It was as if their flesh and blood had been completely drained. They rolled on the ground and panted heavily, as if they had just moved a mountain.


    Bu Tiantong indifferently glanced at the two of them. He disdainfully smiled and then turned his gaze towards Lin Xing.


    "Junior brother, why don''t you let senior sister send you off?"


    Lin Xing''s expression turned more and more serious as he sized up the beautiful woman in front of him. Bu Tiantong was very strong. He had an illusion that even ten people on the same level as the two men would not be a match for her.


    "I have not been a disciple of the Sky Sect for a long time, and you were also kicked out of the sect. This Junior Brother, he really dares to kill me." Lin Qi said in an indifferent tone.


    In fact, he only had one thought in his mind ¡­ Flee.


    He had already achieved his goal for today. Fang Jing was the daughter of the Prime Minister, so it was not the right time to kill her now. It was enough to torture her to the point of destroying her appearance, but it also eased some of the hatred in his heart.


    Of course, this was far from enough. One day, he would definitely be able to kill Fang Jing. However, his current strength was too low, and it was not appropriate for the General''s Estate to directly fall out with the Minister of State.

 C6

    As Lin Qi was pondering, Bu Tiantong''s body disappeared in a flash. When he reappeared, it was above his head. There was no trace of it, it was unfathomable.


    He dodged to the side, but he was still a step too late. Bu Tiantong''s palm turned into a blade and cut into his shoulder by two inches. In an instant, blood splattered, and it pierced through his heart.


    However, Lin Xing was still very glad. If this palm strike had landed on his head, his brain would definitely have flown out.


    "Leave him alive. I will torture him to death and make him regret coming to this world."


    Fang Jing opened her eyes wide, her beautiful face slightly contorted. The hatred she felt for Lin Qi was indescribable.


    He endured the pain and slapped his palm onto the ground, causing his body to roll in the air and avoid Bu Tiantong''s next fatal attack.


    This was the only thought that appeared in Lin Qi''s mind. Strength could not be used, the difference between the two realms and spiritual energy was huge, and was not something that could be blocked with two simple moves.


    As soon as Bu Tiantong stabilized his body, without wasting any time, he rushed over once again. With a move of his shadow, he vanished into thin air.


    At the same time, a majestic aura of darkness swept out.


    "You''re quite bold. You gave up on your divine arts and started cultivating in the underworld sect. It seems like you also have a grudge against the Skypiercing Sect."


    Lin Qi was visibly moved. His facial expression quickly returned to normal as he observed the surrounding dark energy. Unexpectedly, he opened his mouth and spoke in a relaxed manner.


    If she wanted to cultivate the Netherworld Sect, she had to first give up all the divine arts or spiritual energy in her body. After Bu Tiantong was expelled from the sect, she unexpectedly had such bold actions to cripple the divine arts and change to cultivate in the Netherworld Sect. This made even Lin Xing admire her for a long time, and a lot of things must have happened to her.


    "So what?" When Bu Tiantong heard this, he stopped and said.


    Lin Qi''s simple guess was close to the truth. Bu Tiantong had a nightmare in her heart and was often woken up by it. It was the scene from when she first entered the Heaven Sect.


    "We all have a common enemy. Why don''t we join forces?" Lin Xing said.


    "With you? With your carrier realm strength, what do you have to form an alliance with me? If your father were in his place, things would be much better, but you''re just an abandoned son, who would value you? " Bu Tiantong laughed sinisterly out of the ordinary.


    As she finished speaking, a mass of black fog appeared from behind her and engulfed Lin Qi. It was accompanied by a ghastly roar, causing one''s hair to stand on end. Even Fang Jing and the two men watching from the sidelines were secretly shocked.


    "You will regret it."


    Lin Qi shook his injured arm twice and executed a set of moves. He used the Sky Concealment Spell and engaged in an intense battle with the black fog.


    Every time the black fog bit down, it would immediately be pushed away by Lin Qi. Once the fog dissolved, it would not even be able to enter his body.


    "What divine art is this ¡­"


    Bu Tiantong''s face could not help but turn pale. After looking left and right, he was still sure that Lin Xing was only at the carrier realm. As for the tiny amount of spiritual energy in his body, it could be ignored.


    However, this ant, who seemed like a mortal, was able to move easily in the ghost fog. The evil spirits could not even get close, let alone tear and bite at it.


    With a stuffy groan, she personally took action and quickly withdrew the ghost fog.


    Lin Qi''s expression changed. At this moment, he was able to quickly make his way into the forest while the black mist was still not completely gone.


    Like a wisp of smoke, they disappeared into the sea of trees ¡­


    "Quickly chase, we can''t let him escape." Fang Jing was flustered and exasperated as she yelled at Bu Tiantong.


    Bu Tiantong''s expression changed. He didn''t need her to remind him, he obviously knew the consequences of Lin Xing''s escape. Not to mention that his father was the Great General of the country, the ability Lin Xing had just displayed was shocking even to her.


    He disappeared in a flash.


    In front of them was a large forest, each tree was more than two meters tall, filled with strange flowers and plants. With Lin Xing''s small body, they rushed in and disappeared in the blink of an eye.


    A dense nefarious fiendish aura spread out not far behind them. It moved closer and closer, as if it was on the back of a mountain. It was heading in Lin Qi''s direction.


    "You won''t be able to run away. Stop, I can give you a quick death."


    Before he even got close, Bu Tiantong''s cold voice came from afar and reached Lin Xing''s ears.


    Lin Qi grunted and ignored him. He increased his speed and pushed his physical strength to its limit, swimming in the grass like a bug.


    When he reached this point, a large river stretched out in front of him, blocking his path.


    The water current was swift and turbulent. It was endless and ten miles wide. Without any hesitation, Lin Qi dove into the water.


    Cold water quickly submerged him. His nose was tightly shut. His breathing was restrained as he fell into the water.


    Traces of blood flowed from his arm, mixing with the sea water and quickly being swallowed. The water was too deep, so the blood couldn''t float up.


    Not long after, a huge wave of spiritual power came from above, accompanied by a dark aura that rushed over, causing the sea water to become even colder.


    The waves of the sea rose and fell unceasingly.


    Lin Qi was still at the bottom of the river. He did not know how much time had passed, but the water had gradually calmed down.


    "Come on up, the people chasing you have already left."


    An old and deep voice came from the water, directly penetrating into Lin Qi''s soul. This immediately roused his spirit and allowed him to quickly dig his way out of the seabed.


    "Huff ¡­ Huff ¡­"


    Panting heavily, Zhang Xuan floated onto the surface of the water. He felt his entire body turning ice-cold and the pain in his shoulders increasing.


    When he came back to his senses, he saw that the sea was calm and there was no trace of Bu Tiantong. A small boat was floating on the river not far from him.


    His eyes lit up as if he was holding onto a lifesaver as he desperately swam towards the boat.


    Soon, he boarded the ship. At the bow of the ship, there was an old man wearing hemp. He wore a hood made from weeds and was fishing.


    "Old man, did you chase that person away?" This old man was not normal.


    The elder''s face was ancient, and his beard was completely white. However, his eyes, which were hidden under his cape, were bright and full of spirit. They contained intelligence and the radiance of being able to see through all of the human world, and even after hearing his question, they didn''t waver in the slightest.


    "No, she scared herself away."


    "Hmm?"


    Lin Xing was stunned, he could not believe what he had just heard. After changing his position, the old man became even more enigmatic. On the surface, it looked like an old man next door. There was no spiritual energy fluctuation outside of his body and even the fishing rod was just a normal branch. However, the deeper he looked, the more Lin Xing was scared and terrified ¡­


    This is returning to its original nature ah ¡­


    Raising his head to look at Haoyue, and then lowering his head to look, he had an extremely strange look on his face. Where in the world did he go fishing in the middle of the night? Moreover, it was the latter half of the night.


    "Old man, what are you fishing for?" Lin Qi asked curiously.


    Hearing this, the elder smiled and looked around at the endless river as if he could see the end of it, "I''m fishing for the Divine Veins."


    "What is a Divine Vein?" Lin Xing asked again.


    "Divine vein? It could be called a divine meridian that reached the heavens. This river runs a million miles and its source is the Heaven Sect. This is where the Sect God Origin is.


    The old man said coolly.


    But, when it entered Lin Xing''s ears, it caused his scalp to go numb, as if he had fallen into an abyss.


    The ordinary and ordinary old man before him was too terrifying.

 C7

    Lin Xing had been in the Skysplit Sect for many years, so he naturally knew the importance of this divine meridian. This was the life vein and foundation of this great sect. According to what he knew, the Skysplit Sect had a divine meridian under its peak that contained an endless divine origin that the sect could use for cultivation and for the sect''s operations.


    Lin Qi could not see the head or the body of an ordinary fishing rod, but he could imagine that the Heaven Seeking Sect''s Divine Origin was leaking, and an endless stream of Divine Origin was gathering towards the old man.


    What was even more terrifying was that not a single expert in the sect could sense that the old man had ''stolen'' the Heaven Sect''s Deity''s Origin.


    It was obvious that the Skysplit Sect did not find out that the divine vein was the reverse scale of the divine arts great sects. If they found that the divine origin had greatly decreased, wouldn''t they be risking their lives?


    The old man was not fishing for the Divine Origin, but for the life of the Sky Sect.


    Thus, Lin Xing believed this old man to be too terrifying, and that he was simply not a human being.


    "Old man, those people from the Skysplit Sect are not easy to mess with ¡­" Lin Xing was flabbergasted.


    He was very clear about the strength of the Sky Sect. They ruled over millions of miles, and they controlled the life and death of hundreds of countries of all sizes.


    "I know, I don''t believe that the little fellows from the Deities Templar would be so stingy. A mere Divine Origin Realm cultivator can actually come and fight me to the death! "Hmph, if you piss me off, take away all of its divine veins." The old man said.


    "Little guy?"


    Lin Qi wiped off his sweat, knowing that this old man was not ordinary.


    Lin Qi was startled. This old man could tell that he possessed the Ancient God''s physique with a single glance. He picked up the book on the ground and felt as though he had obtained a treasure.


    "Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique."


    Flipping through a few pages, his spirit was immediately shaken. This was another heaven-defying cultivation technique. However, the ''heaven-defying'' cultivation technique wasn''t really referring to a cultivation technique. Rather, it was a cultivation technique that belonged to the category of ''heaven-defying''. It was suitable for a person like Lin Xing to cultivate.


    Even more precious was that the Nine Revolutions Divine Lamp was not a divine art, but a Celestial Art from the Celestial Sect of Six.


    The people in the Celestial Sect were also very rare, regarding the Celestial Arts they cultivated. Lin Qi had heard of these rumors and had always been curious. Now that he had satisfied his curiosity, he was looking forward to it even more.


    "Thank you, old man." Lin Xing thanked him.


    After the old man heard this, he didn''t even raise his eyes. The celestial spell was like a waste to him, so he didn''t care at all. "I''ll take you ashore."


    "Alright."


    When he had just taken two steps, Lin Xing inadvertently turned his head backwards and discovered that the old man had disappeared without a trace. There were no ripples on the surface of the sea.


    He was accustomed to this. This old man was not an ordinary person and could not be judged based on ordinary theories.


    At dawn, a red light appeared on the horizon. The moon slowly faded and the earth continued to sink into the darkness.


    At this time, everyone in the manor was asleep. Only a few guards stood up to patrol, opening the door.


    When Lin Qi stepped through the doorway, he felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He let out a breath of foul air and swaggered back through the entrance.


    The two guards who were standing by the door lazily and had yet to regain their senses looked at the young master in surprise. There was surprise, ridicule and even more disgust in their eyes, while their expressions were especially strange.


    Lin Qi didn''t even bother to look at their expressions as he walked into the manor.


    The rows of houses were still pitch black, and snoring sounds could be heard from time to time. He quickened his steps and headed straight for the room where the sound was coming from.


    Looking at the room that was equally dark, his eyes glinted with an icy glow as he stepped forward and kicked the door open.


    At the same time, a figure within the pitch-black room suddenly sat up from his chair. Under the light of the little rays of light, one could clearly see that this person was Lei Fei Ming.


    Two unremarkable dark circles appeared on his eye sockets. Judging from his appearance, he too had not slept the entire night. He had been sitting in his room waiting for some news.


    The crude sound of the door being knocked made him immediately feel as if he was facing a great enemy. When he saw that it was Lin Xing, shock flashed across his eyes, but it was well concealed. His expression changed to one of concern.


    "Brother Xing, where did you run off to tonight? You worried about your brother for the rest of the night. It''s good that you''re back. " Ling Feimu walked up and greeted him sincerely.


    "Is that so? I can see that the manor is as usual. I wonder how did big brother Feiming know that I ran out?" Looking at the man who had a close relationship with him since he was young, Lin Xing felt disgusted.


    If it weren''t for the fact that Gu Yuan had saved him last time, he wouldn''t have known about this even at death''s door. He thought of a way to deal with the mastermind behind his death.


    "Then I really have to thank Brother Feiming for his kindness, but are those guards really not here to kill me?" Lin Xing asked with his eyes wide open, his smile not a smile on his face.


    "Kill you? "That''s my trusted aides, they actually have that much guts. When they come back, I''ll immediately take them on the spot." His killing intent was overflowing, and he spoke as if he was speaking the truth.


    "I was just joking. I didn''t meet Brother Feiming''s subordinate. What a pity, they didn''t manage to seize this chance to earn merits. " Lin Qi laughed and patted on the shoulder of Qi Feiming. Then, he found a stool and sat down.


    He narrowed his eyes again and said, "But I really can''t figure out how I offended her to the point that she wouldn''t even let a mortal like me go."


    "Did Fang Jing want to kill you?" This is too presumptuous, to even dare to touch the people from my general''s household. Wake up little brother, don''t worry, I won''t let you eat this for nothing. " Mu Feiming gritted his teeth as he spoke.


    "No need, I can settle this myself. Besides, didn''t I also return safely? " Lin Xing chuckled.


    It caused Fei Ming to relax and wipe the sweat from his forehead. He also found a stool to sit down on and curiously asked: "How did you escape? I am very clear about Fang Jing''s strength. Could it be that an expert is helping us? "


    Lin Xing knew that this was what Feiming was trying to trick him into doing. Along the slope: "Brother Feiming is really smart, his guess is right, that master is not simple at all. Before I left, I was crying and begging for her to accept me as her disciple, but she was rejected by me.


    Listening to this from the bottom of his heart, he felt like vomiting. Crying and begging? He had never seen such a shameless person, so he wouldn''t believe it even if he was beaten to death. In his opinion, if Lin Xing was lucky enough to survive, then he must have been lucky enough to survive. His last sentence was true. With his physique, this was the only thing he could do for the rest of his life.


    He could not help but sneer in his heart, knowing his own limitations.


    But, the only one to blame is Lin Xing, you are Lin Shen''s only son. If you don''t die, then where will I make Flying Sonic rise to prominence?


    Brother Feiming, I''m injured. I heard that Fang Jing''s Hundred Motherland Flower is in your hands. This flower is a spirit refining divine medicine, and can also heal injuries. Lin Xing laughed.


    "I paid a high price to buy the Hundred Mother Flower from Fang Jing. I originally wanted to keep it for myself, but since Brother Xing asked, I couldn''t refuse."


    Flying Ming''s heart was bleeding, but he knew in his heart that Lin Xing most likely understood something. If he did not hand over the Hundred Mother Flower to him today, it would be very difficult for him to let this matter rest.

 C8

    He had to pretend to be sincere and sincere on the surface, but in reality, his heart was already bleeding like a river.


    The Hundred Mother Flower was half a meter tall, and its petals were fragrant. Its entire body was sparkling and translucent, emitting a gentle radiance. It was dazzling in this pitch-black room. A ray of sparkling light shone on Lin Qi''s injured shoulder. The wound immediately began to wiggle, slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. This could be seen from this.


    Lin Qi received it with both hands in joy. His face was full of gratitude as he continued to speak good words to make Fei Ming cry.


    The latter laughed dryly, showing a nonchalant attitude. There was killing intent hidden in the depths of her eyes, and her heart was like ten thousand horses galloping.


    After obtaining the Hundred Mother Flower, his goal had already been achieved. Lin Qi turned around and left without even looking back. He faintly felt the cold light that was being shot at him from behind. His expression was calm as the corner of his mouth curled up in a sneer.


    Returning to the small dark room, he closed the door and sat like a monk meditating on a pile of grass. The Hundred Mothers Flower was placed in front of him, and a gentle but holy halo was emitted from it.


    The flower petal contained a large amount of spiritual energy. Lin Xing didn''t go to cultivate the Sky Concealing Art and the celestial spell he got from the old man first, but started to refine his spiritual energy.


    A thin white smoke came out of his nose. His forehead was covered in sweat and he seemed to be very tired. He tried to cultivate again, but the Ancient God''s body was greatly weakened and his body wasn''t strong enough.


    At that moment, the golden mace, which had been stored in his sea of consciousness, lightly trembled and let out a loud sound. Instantly, the raging spiritual power within his body became obedient, as if it had encountered something terrifying.


    The mace contained the power of the laws, and this spiritual energy was the essence of the world. Obviously, the power of the laws was of a higher level.


    At noon, he opened the door and walked out of the small, dark room. He was brimming with vigor, and his eyes were as deep as the stars. He did not feel the least bit tired.


    The spiritual energy outside his body had almost become corporeal. He had advanced and stepped into the Realm of Flame Heaven and the Realm of Flame Heaven.


    After he withdrew all the spiritual energy in his body and changed into his previous appearance, he did not want to reveal his strength too early. There were many people waiting for him to "surprise" them.


    It was noon and the general''s manor was full of people. Many of them came with generous gifts.


    From the beginning of the line from Lin Fei-ming''s room to the streets outside the residence, most of them were officials from all over the country.


    It had to be said that Ling Feiming had great skills and had always been in high spirits. He was very interested in Lin Shen, and after he set off, he handed over all matters of the general''s residence to Ling Feiming to take care of.


    However, the usually clean and honest Ling Fei-ming was out of the ordinary today. He charged for things and clearly marked out the prices. This made many people dumbstruck.


    In the end, it was only natural to collect fees. Many people did not hesitate to spend a lot of money and carried a large number of precious items with them. They had been waiting from daybreak until now.


    As Lin Qi walked through the mansion, the servants that passed by all looked at him. None of them had a pleasant expression on their faces. Most of them glanced at him indifferently, before speeding up to avoid him like he was a god of pests.


    "Young Master, don''t bother with these servants." Ashan walked over and snorted.


    Lin Qi spread out his hands nonchalantly, not caring about these small details and asked, "What the hell is this guy trying to do today? Isn''t he afraid of destroying the image of justice that he painstakingly built in the past? "


    Ah Shan sighed deeply, he looked at Lin Xing with a sympathetic gaze and whispered in his ear, "You also know that Master is a tough and unyielding person, he dislikes this kind of corrupt practice the most. I heard from the servants that after the young master returned from the battle, they had already thought of a way to blame the lord. For example, in recent years, living in poverty, in order to maintain the expenditure, the fees are very necessary. Every month, the Sky Sect would come to collect debts, and if things go on like this, the people in the mansion will starve to death. "


    "So that''s what it means."


    Ah Shan could already imagine that after the old master came back and heard these words, not only would he not blame Qi Feiming, but he would also praise him greatly. When he thought about that good-for-nothing son of his, he smacked the table, and Lin Xing would be in trouble again.


    This caused Flying Tone to have ill intentions. In order to deal with Lin Qi, he had really gone all out.


    "Don''t think too much about it. We''ll talk about it on that day. "Accompany me out of the manor." Lin Qi said indifferently, clenching his fists tightly. The killing intent in his heart was very unbalanced.


    "Yes, young master. I''ll go and get some money. If you have something in your sights, you can also buy it. "


    Ah Shan was about to go get the money, but Lin Xing stopped him. "I won''t spend any of this General''s Mansion''s money. Besides, I''m just going out to get some fresh air, so I don''t intend to buy anything."


    "Yes."


    "Make way." Ashan walked in front of Lin Xing, intending to pass through the crowd.


    "Scram to the side. You dare to cut the queue in front of this old man? You are courting death."


    Ah Shan was pushed back by someone''s palm. He was so strong that he could not stop himself from being pushed back. Lin Xing grabbed his shoulder and steadied his body.


    "How dare you! How dare you block my young master''s way in this house!" I think you don''t want to live anymore. " Ashan said angrily and with a stern voice.


    The person who pushed Ah Shan back had a thick face and looked fierce. He was not afraid at all. Pointing at Lin Qi, he mocked, "Him? I have seen the eight protectors of the country, which family''s young master is he from? Could he be the infamous trash of the Lin Clan? "


    "How dare you!" Ashan raged and pointed at the big man''s nose.


    The big guy revealed a scoffing smile, not looking at him with contempt. Just as he was about to speak, a big slap came flying over.


    "Pa ¡­"


    A clear and melodious voice entered everyone''s ears. Immediately, they looked over with widened eyes, attracting everyone''s gazes.


    Surprisingly, there were five finger marks on the big man''s face, which caused him to feel a burning pain. When he regained his senses, he looked at Lin Qi and immediately flew into a rage.


    "Pa ¡­"


    Lin Qi did not even give him a chance to retaliate. He rushed forward and in one breath, slapped him five times.


    The big man felt dizzy and his mind buzzed. The huge force made his face completely unrecognizable. It was swollen like a pig''s head. He fell straight to the ground.


    "Isn''t it said that this young master is completely crippled?" "How can he have such great power? This person at least has the strength to leave the realm."


    "Yeah, I can''t figure it out either. Could he have been retrained?" But so what if he recuperates? After all, he was born with the Ancient God''s physique. He would never be able to cross that huge gap in his entire life. "


    When the crowd saw Lin Xing''s strength, they immediately whispered to each other.

    At this moment, Mu Fengming walked out of the room. Upon seeing the scene in front of him, his heart sank. Lin Xing was not only slapping the big fellow who begged him for help, he was also slapping him in the face.


    But on the surface, he still had to ask with concern, "Brother Xing, is your hand alright?"


    Lin Qi shook his hand and blew on it, saying, "My hand is hurting from the hit. Brother Feimu, shouldn''t you take out something to comfort me? You''ve received so many benefits today, hehe, everyone who sees it will have a share. "


    Even the deepest part of the city could not remain calm. His face fell and the people beside him also shot angry glares at Lin Xing.


    They swore that they had never seen such a shameless person in their lives.


    "Of course, of course." "Yes, Young Master!" Mu Feiming fiercely suppressed the anger in his heart as he nodded his head and instructed the servant beside him to go into the house to get it.


    Lin Xing laughed, "Brother Feimu, I''m really sorry for bothering you today, but he insulted me. I can''t bear it any longer."


    "Humph, all of you, remember, insulting my little brother is equivalent to slapping my face. Men, drag him out and beat him with another hundred heavy sticks."


    This caused Fei Ming to assume a righteous stance. His expression suddenly became incomparably majestic as he exuded a powerful aura. What moved Lin Xing was "a complete mess".


    The pitiful burly man, who was lying on the ground like a dead pig, was once again dragged out and beaten to a pulp.


    At this moment, the servant was carrying a sack and throwing it in front of Lin Qi. The bag was filled to the brim with sparkling and dazzling spirit crystals. There were over a hundred of them.


    Under Lin Xing''s gaze, Ah Shan hurriedly held the sack tightly in his hands, his expression showing that he had struck it rich. His face was full of excitement, even Lin Xing was moved, he did not expect that this would cause Fei Ming to be so generous.


    "Brother Xing, if you''re not satisfied, I will make it up to you next time." However, his heart was filled with darkness. No matter how many spirit crystals I give you, you still have to have a life flower.


    "Thanks a lot, Brother Feiming. I''ll be waiting." Lin Qi raised his head and stared at him, his eyes filled with a strange light.


    "That trash Lin Xing, come out here right now." Today, I will chop you into pieces. "


    Right at this moment, an explosive shout sounded out from outside the manor. It was like the rumbling of thunder, causing everyone''s eardrums to hurt.


    "Looking for me?"


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned ice-cold. He turned to Ah Shan and said, "You go back first. Put away the spirit crystal."


    "But, Young Master ¡­"


    Before he could finish, Lin Xing had already walked out of the manor under the watchful eyes of the crowd. His expression was calm and his eyes were filled with a terrifying calmness.


    At this moment, the expression on the face of Feng Feiming, who was behind him, was undisguised, cold and fierce.


    As he walked out of the manor gates, he saw that a large number of warriors were stationed outside, surrounding the entire manor.


    The leader was a young man with an arrogant expression. He was dressed in brocade clothes and was riding a handsome horse. He looked down from above with a domineering attitude.


    Lin Xing knew this young man. He was Fang Jing''s older brother, Fang Tan. He was here to collect debts.


    Beside him was another young man who was also mounted on a tall horse. He had a cold expression on his face, and was carrying a long sword on his back.


    He drew his sword, pointed it at Lin Xing and said harshly, "Lin Xing, you little piece of trash. How dare you disfigure my sister''s face?! Today, I will dismember your body into five pieces!"


    "Someone, capture him and execute him immediately." He even brought five horses. Everything was ready, and Lin Xing was just a step away from dismembering his body.


    Lin Qi''s expression was calm as he waited for him to catch him. At the same time, the spiritual energy within his body surged crazily. At worst, he would just use blood to wash away his wounds and drag a few people down with him before he died.


    That Yu Xiang stood in front of the mansion and looked on from the sidelines. He had no intention of saving Fang Tan, so he took this opportunity to tell Fang Tan to kill Lin Xing, which was exactly what he wanted. When Lin Shen came back, he would say that he couldn''t stop Fang Tan''s anger, it was very simple.


    "Stop! Let''s see who dares to touch him today!"


    At this moment, a person walked out from the manor and stood in front of Lin Qi. This was a young man with sharp eyebrows, a cold expression, and an indescribable chill that caused the air to freeze up and tremble.


    His appearance immediately attracted the attention of everyone.


    A warm feeling flowed through Lin Qi''s heart. This person was Gu Yuan, who had always had a terrible relationship with him. At this moment, he had exceeded everyone''s expectations and stood up for him.


    "Gu Yuan, have you gone mad? I''ve heard that you''ve always disliked this piece of trash, so why did you help him? I advise you not to meddle in other people''s business. " Fang Tan glared at him.


    "I do not like him, but no matter what, he is my foster father''s only son. Do you think I will just stand by and watch? If you want to touch him today, you have to get through me first. " Gu Yuan shot a stern glare at Lin Xing before turning towards Fang Tan and said indifferently, "Kill!" His every word was as sharp as a knife.


    Standing at the side, Gu Feiming''s expression was incomparably gloomy. The two of them had a discordant relationship, and from his point of view, Gu Yuan had taken the wrong medicine.


    Listening to Gu Yuan''s firm tone, Fang Tan wanted to make a move on Lin Qi with his presence, but it was probably impossible. He immediately rushed forward and spoke in agreement with Gu Yuan. Fang Tan''s ability to see the wind and order was not ordinary.


    "You''re right, Xing Di is the only son of my foster father, where did your Fang Tan get the guts and power to touch him? "I advise you all to leave immediately. I can pretend that nothing happened."


    Ever since Lin Shen had set off for the war, the authority of the General''s Estate had been taken over by Lin Fei-ming. The weight of his words was definitely heavier than Gu Yuan''s, so Fang Tan had no choice but to be wary.


    His face darkened as he looked down, snorting coldly, "This trash dares to ruin my sister''s face. If I don''t kill him today, others will think our Prime Minister''s Palace is easy to bully. This debt must be paid with his life."


    "I don''t want to repeat myself. I want to kill him. Ask if I agree." Gu Yuan''s words were like gold and he didn''t want to waste any words. Each of his words was as piercing and ice-cold as a sharp sword.


    Fang Tan was infuriated, but he was clear on Gu Yuan''s strength. He was actually intimidated for a moment.


    On the other hand, the youth with the sword on his back sneered disdainfully, "What nonsense are you spouting? Just grab him, and he''ll die."


    Everyone was stunned on the spot. Who was this person? How dare he be so arrogant? His gaze and tone clearly didn''t place any importance on the General''s Estate.

 C10

    As the youth with the sword on his back spoke, it immediately caused an uproar. Fang Tan, on the other hand, felt as if he had swallowed a pill.


    Fang Tan laughed and said to the surrounding people, "I forgot to introduce him. He is Lu Fan. Not only is he a Crown Prince of the Red Luan Country, he is also an outer disciple of the Sky Sect."


    At the same time, the youth with the sword on his back raised his gaze even higher. He was too lazy to look at the bunch of commoners below.


    No wonder...


    Now that the two identities had been revealed, no one could remain calm.


    Without mentioning his status as a Crown Prince, no one had thought that he was a disciple of the Sky Sect. Although he was only an outer sect disciple, it was enough to cause a stir in a small country like the Azure Silver Nation.


    Ever since Lin Ming woke up, no one in the Azure Silver Country had ever had the qualifications to enter the Heaven Sect again.


    Therefore, this person must be extremely talented, and his strength couldn''t be underestimated. His background was another story as well. The Sky Sect''s methods of recruiting people were extremely strict. Without a good physique, they wouldn''t accept anyone, no matter how powerful their background was. Therefore, no one would think that he had used any tricks to gain the upper hand.


    No wonder the king and the king dared to let their father go to war without fear of rebellion. So it was beside the great tree known as the Red Luan Country. Lin Qi thought to himself as he thoroughly understood the ins and outs of politics.


    "Okay, I don''t want to say any useless words. I don''t mind telling you, even if you are an inner disciple of the Heaven Ascension Sect, don''t think you can be touched by my General''s Mansion today." Gu Yuan said indifferently.


    "How dare you!"


    Lu Fan was filled with rage, as if he had suffered a great humiliation. He leapt up from the horse, his long sword at his back flying out from his scabbard as he charged towards Gu Yuan, his body following behind the sword.


    His moves were fast and the sword qi was unstoppable. The name of an outer disciple of the Heaven Ascension Sect was indeed well-deserved. The surrounding people couldn''t help but secretly take seven or eight steps back in shock.


    Gu Yuan''s face was expressionless and unperturbed. He immediately soared into the air and activated a divine art.


    Around him was a halo of light, flowing with light and overflowing with color. It then materialized into a solid mass of light, shooting out one after another, piercing through the void, heading straight towards Lu Fan.


    The two enormous forces collided, sending sparks flying everywhere. Lu Fan continued his charge with his long sword, producing a sharp noise that made people''s scalps tingle.


    Naturally, Gu Yuan was not to be outdone. All the lights gathered together and shot out from his sleeves.


    Puff ¡­


    Sparks flew in all directions as the light scattered. Lu Fan was defeated and flew back onto his horse. He frowned for the first time as he stared at the cold teenager in front of him.


    Gu Yuan retreated three steps before stopping. He stomped his heels on the ground lightly.


    This battle, including Lin Qi, was simply too thrilling. None of them were simple. This was especially true for Gu Yuan. His strength had increased by quite a bit since the last time he was here. Lin Xing was able to clearly detect his strength.


    "I never thought that your Azure Silver Country would have such a genius like you. Hmph, even this prince cannot help but praise you." Lu Fan looked at Gu Yuan with a grave expression.


    Gu Yuan said, "I don''t care about your praise."


    "Hmph ¡­"


    The two were at loggerheads, and their eyes were red with anger. They were at odds with each other, yet they were about to start a fight again.


    "Gu Yuan, we are all officials in the same dynasty, I don''t want to hurt your relationship, I''ve only come today to capture Lin Xing, I heard that he has already started cultivating again, and has refined some spiritual energy, how about this, I''ll send a soldier to fight with him, and no matter if he wins or loses, I''ll leave immediately."


    "This is interesting. I wonder how much the former prodigies of our Sky Sect are worth now." Lu Fan nodded in agreement, then looked at Lin Qi with a sneer.


    Gu Yuan pondered for a moment before turning his head towards Lin Xing, asking for his opinion.


    "Alright, I agree." Fine, I agree. Lin Xing walked up to him and gave him a strong response.


    Under Fang Tan''s command, a soldier walked up. The former lightly nodded, indicating that he wanted to be ruthless.


    Even without his warning, the soldier already knew that this was the chance to earn some merits. A surge of murderous intent spread out from his body as he stared at Lin Xing like a venomous snake.


    He was tall and fully armed. His entire body was wrapped in black scales, and one could not see his facial features clearly. His eyes were extremely cold and fierce, and he was also a ruthless character that crawled out from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.


    Raising the greatsword in his hand, he stomped his heels and shot out like a sharp arrow, causing a large number of wind sounds to ring out.


    Lin Qi did not move the slightest bit. He waited for him to stab him, and when he was an inch away from him, he immediately cast the Sky Concealment Technique.


    The armored warrior''s eyes were filled with shock. He wanted to retract the sword, but he couldn''t find any reaction. Instead, his body was involuntarily pulled away. This youth''s strength was too great, causing him to be dumbstruck.


    Clang! Clang ¡­


    Both palms loosened their grip on the great sword, and Lin Xing''s finger lightly flicked on the sword edge, causing the entire body to tremble, emitting a clanging sound. The armored warrior was caught off guard and flew backwards.


    Lin Qi didn''t even give him the chance to stabilize himself. He immediately leaped up and followed with three consecutive punches. The armored soldier flew out like a kite with its string cut and landed on the ground in front of Fang Tan''s horse.


    The corner of Gu Yuan''s mouth twitched slightly. He seemed to have seen the figure of the genius from the past. A nostalgic feeling arose in his heart as his will to fight rose. Lin Xing''s speed of improvement was too fast. It was clear that this was beyond his expectations. The janissaries that had experienced hundreds of battles before leaving the country were actually unable to withstand a single blow.


    Fang Tan already understood that it was impossible to kill Lin Xing with his cultivation base. If he had known earlier that he would have bet, he would have sent out his Acupoint Charging Armors to fight him.


    The poor soldier who had just gotten up, his feet still in the ground and had a dizzy spell, was slashed in the throat by Fang Tan''s sword. Blood spurted out three meters high, and his corpse fell on the ground with his eyes wide open.


    "Let''s go."


    With words coming first, killing Lin Xing today was already impossible, as all the efforts he had made had been for naught. He had taken the opportunity to eradicate Lin Qi, but who would have thought that not only would the process come to an end, but Lin Xing''s strength had also risen dramatically. He was the first to turn around and leave on his horse.


    "The next time I see you, I will ruthlessly trample your former limitless glory on my feet. "F * ck off." As a disciple of the Skysplit Sect, he knew how arrogant and proud the chief disciple was. If he could trample Lin Xing beneath his feet, it would be enough to satisfy his vanity.


    Lin Qi turned a deaf ear to his threats and completely ignored them.


    As Fang Tan and the rest left, the crowd gradually dispersed, especially Gu Yuan. He didn''t even give Lin Xing a chance to thank Lin Ming. He directly returned to his residence, leaving behind a proud and aloof figure.


    However, at this time, Ling Feiming walked up and examined Lin Xing''s entire body to see if he was injured. A burst of warmth and concern filled his heart, loving him to the extreme.

 C11

    He had originally wanted to go out on the streets to get some fresh air, but after the commotion caused by Fang Tan Yi, he was no longer in the mood for it. In the end, under Fevvers'' '''' concern '', Lin Xing walked back into the small dark room.


    While Ah Shan was waiting for him in the dark room, a sack full of Spirit Crystals had been poured onto the ground. It was bright and hot, illuminating the room like a bright light.


    "Young Master, we''re rich."


    Ashan jumped up in excitement, he had never seen so many spirit crystals in his life before. Spirit crystals were the general currency among cultivators. Not only could they be used for trading, they could also be used for cultivation. The interior stored pure spirit energy.


    He said to Ah Shan, "Ah Shan, you should be at the peak of the carrier realm by now. Take half of it and try your best to break through the boundary within two days."


    "Young master, this... You need these Spirit Crystals more than I do, I can''t accept them. " Ah Shan refused. Lin Xing was in a bad situation right now. Raising his strength was a top priority.


    Lin Qi shook his head in consolation. "Listen to me. Take half of it. This is my order. Moreover, after you break through, I have important matters to attend to."


    Lin Qi quickly helped him up, indicating that he did not need to be so polite, and said, "You have to act like you are not going to leave, you have to make sure that you advance within two days. "Don''t let me down."


    "Don''t worry young master, I, Ah Shan, promise you that I won''t let you down." Ashan pounded his chest, and with an excited expression, he picked up the gunny sack and began to store the Spirit Crystals.


    Not long after that, half of the spirit crystals were put into the sack, while Ashan carried him on his back, walking out of the room with a glowing face.


    After he left, Lin Xing stacked the remaining spirit crystals together and moved the remaining petals of the Hundred Mother Flower over. He found a place to sit down cross-legged and happily refined the pure spirit energy stored within the two items.


    With the assistance of the golden mace, refining the spiritual energy would have a faster effect. Every time spiritual energy circulated in his body, the golden mace would tremble, no longer remaining silent, and it would radiate with spirituality.


    Four hours passed, and the sky gradually darkened. A full moon hung high in the sky, as if it was within reach.


    At this moment, his expression was one of shock, and there was a hint of happiness in his eyes. In a short period of time, his strength had increased yet again, and his cultivation had skyrocketed as he stepped into the peak of the Realm of leaving.


    After that, he covered the remaining spirit crystal with the grass in satisfaction and, under the guidance of the golden mace, walked into the pitch black space.


    When his mind was completely immersed in the technique, the power of the Edicts in the air began to surge wildly. He executed the ''Hidden Heaven Technique'' slightly, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly.


    During the latter half of the night, he began to cultivate that immortal technique, the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern.


    This immortal technique was also very profound. Although it was not as profound as the Hidden Heaven Technique, it was still not something that could be comprehended in two or three tries.


    Puff ¡­


    A flame that was so cold that it could freeze one to the bone appeared in the vicinity. The most surprising thing was that the flame was emitting a strong fragrance. It could only be found in the sky, not in the mortal world. That lamp was also extremely peculiar. It was dark and unassuming, and its shape was eccentric and full of patterns.


    This was obviously an immortal lamp and flame; it was something that Lin Qi had spent a lot of effort to produce. Not long after, it disappeared, and he was drenched in sweat, feeling the strain.


    If he wanted to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern to its peak, he would need to display nine lanterns. Lin Xing did not dare to imagine how tired he would be with just one lamp.


    However, it was impossible not to fight for it.


    The next day, a group of people appeared outside of the general''s manor and began to circle around it. Some were reverent, some were open and honorable, and all of them emitted a fierce aura as they stepped from morning to night.


    The majority of it was covered by a black mist and was extremely cold. The Nether Cultivation Sect''s Nether Enlightenment Technique was obviously a group of Dark Dwellers from Black Wind Mountain. All of them were vicious and ordinary people would not be able to dodge it.


    Surprisingly, no one came to the capital to chase them away. Everyone knew that it was forbidden to enter the capital, and those who violated this rule would be killed without question.


    After asking around for a bit, it turned out that Fang Tan had issued a bounty for Lin Xing''s head with two thousand Spirit Crystals. Many people became excited after hearing this and even some rare old monsters came forward.


    From the last time when Fang Jing colluded with Bu Tiantong to kill Lin Xing, it could be seen that the people of Black Wind Mountain and the Prefecture had long colluded with each other. With Fang Tan''s position of power at their disposal, this group of Dark Dwellers could come and go as they wished in the capital.


    In order to kill Lin Qi, he didn''t hesitate to spend a lot of money.


    In the dead of night, Lin Xing was sitting on a pile of straw with a strange expression on his face. He couldn''t help but reach out his right hand to rub his head. This head of his was truly worth a lot of money.


    Since he had become a mortal, the General''s Estate had never been at peace. Not only had he angered the Sky Sect, he had even provoked the Prime Minister''s Estate, especially during this special period. For the General''s Estate, this was undoubtedly an even worse time.


    Squeak...


    Pushing the door open and entering, Ah Shan took advantage of the darkness to enter, nodding his head in respect towards Lin Xing. His entire body was filled with spiritual energy, clearly showing that he did not disappoint and successfully advanced into the next realm.


    "Move."


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold. He leapt up and rushed out of the room with Ah Shan in order to gain the upper hand.


    You want to kill me? You will have to pay the price. I just want to tell you, those two thousand spirit crystals aren''t that easy to obtain.


    Ashan had found two black cloaks from somewhere, and the two of them covered their faces with their cloaks. Taking advantage of the night, they climbed out of the general''s manor, and arrived outside.


    He had just exited the courtyard when he saw two figures not too far away who had jumped over the wall. After Fang Tan''s Bounty was given out, he called for the guards to leave, so these people fearlessly entered the manor to take action.


    "Should we make a move on them?" Ashan asked coldly.


    Lin Qi looked at the two of them disappearing and sneered, "No need, it''s not convenient for us to fight in the mansion." Let them go.

 C12

    Compared to the daytime, the general''s manor was much more crowded at night. They walked in groups of three or five, some of them minding their own business, wanting to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of others. Some of them directly jumped over the walls of the manor and dared to assassinate.


    The streets were filled with a chilling aura. The cold wind caressed the skin, and the coldness was bone-piercing.


    With their strength, dealing with three or five of them was almost impossible, especially Ah Shan. He had just stepped into the realm and his foundation was unstable, so the only people who could come to this place were all the powerhouses of the 2nd level of the Li He Realm.


    A person in black clothes was boldly walking down an alley, also wanting to climb over the wall and enter the general''s manor like those people. At the same time of the assassination, he might even be able to find something good to give him.


    With this thought in his mind, he hadn''t returned from the day before. The two thousand spirit crystals were simply too moving.


    Suddenly, the danger was approaching and the cold intent behind his back intensified. But as expected of the Dark Dweller who spent all his time on Black Wind Mountain, the first thing he did was to turn around and send a punch behind him at the same time.


    However, before he could turn around, a sharp dagger had already landed on his neck. Two men with black heads dropped from the sky and landed in front of him, glaring at him.


    He became frightened and immediately raised his hands. He did not dare to move again, otherwise, he would not be able to preserve his life.


    "Brothers, if you have something to talk about, then we can''t use our blades. This thing is not safe." The Ghost said in fear.


    Ah Shan wiped the dagger on his skin and sneered: "With your strength, you dare come to the General''s Mansion and cause trouble? "Are you tired of living?"


    Lin Qi was also sizing up this person in front of him. He could clearly feel that his fear came from the bottom of his heart, causing his heart to soften. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he really didn''t want to kill him.


    "I''m just here to play with the soy sauce, I don''t dare to fight with you two big brothers over that trash Lin Xing''s head. I beg you two to let me go, I''ll just roll back to Black Wind Mountain and never come out." The Ghost begged for mercy.


    "Pa ¡­"


    As soon as his voice fell, Ah Shan sent a slap across the face of the young master. Someone had insulted the young master in front of him, and it was unbearable.


    The five finger prints could clearly be seen. The Dark Dweller was in so much pain that his head was spinning, but he didn''t dare move, and said: "My two big brothers, what did I say wrongly? If you two want to kill Lin Xing with your swords combined, that would be a simple act. Two thousand spirit crystals is definitely yours. Don''t forget what I have said. "


    "Pa ¡­"


    It had to be said that he did not have any discernment ability at all. He was so angry that Ashan slapped him again. His entire body was dizzy, and he kept his mouth shut without saying a word.


    Under Lin Xing''s gaze, Ah Shan fiercely said, "Cut the crap, hand over everything you have. Otherwise you''ll have to lie here today. "


    After the Ghost was glared at by Ah Shan, he unwillingly took out all the things on his body. There were Spirit Crystals, Spirit Treasures, and even the pockets of the woman''s pants. He handed them to Ah Shan on his left hand.


    "Is that all?" Before Ashan came, he even prepared a gunny sack, put everything he looted from the Dark Dwellers into it, and felt around his body for a while.


    The Ghost said with a bitter face, "My two big brothers, I really don''t have any left. I''ve taken them all out. You''ve kept your word, but you have to let me go."


    Ah''Shan sneered coldly, "Did I say I won''t kill you?"


    "You ¡­"


    The man''s eyes widened in despair. Just as he spoke a single word, he was knocked unconscious by Lin Qi and fell to the ground.


    "Young Master, you''re too soft-hearted. He''s the one that came to kill you, and knocking him out was too easy of him." Ashan said earnestly.


    "These are just small characters. Killing him alone is useless. As for those who want to kill me, of course, I won''t let them go." Lin Xing said in a deep voice.


    "Yes."


    Both of them camouflaged themselves as night hunters and began to search for their next target.


    At an intersection, a person was kicked away by Lin Xing who was stepping on the wall. Ashan took the sack and immediately went to snatch it.


    By the time dawn arrived, the sack was already full to the brim. They ruthlessly plundered more than twenty people in one night. The harvest was huge, and the amount of spirit crystals alone was more than two hundred.


    The first thing to be mentioned was that of the twenty people, Lin Xing did not kill a single person. At most, he would only be severely injured. Then, he would snatch some items and immediately run away.


    Returning to the manor, Lin Xing and Ah Shan began to divide the loot, tidying up the mess. Lin Xin took out a few powerful spiritual tools and over a hundred spirit crystals and gave them to Ah Shan.


    Ah Shan declined and told Lin Xing that they had not used up all the Spirit Crystals yesterday and could not accept any more.


    "We''ll continue tonight." Lin Qi said with a profound tone.


    Hearing this, Ah Shan was overjoyed as he put the Spirit Crystals and Spirit Treasures into his pocket.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing and Ah Shan found a secluded place and hid all the stolen goods. They only took out some spirit artifacts and spirit crystals for temporary use before coming back to retrieve them.


    Afterwards, the two went back to bed in high spirits.


    That night, regardless of whether it was within or outside the Prefecture, it was not a peaceful night.


    The sky was bright, and there was a sea of people outside the general''s manor. People were gathering, and their faces were filled with fear.


    Following the crowd''s horrified gazes, they saw corpses lined up side by side in front of the mansion. From head to tail, there were a total of thirty corpses.


    It was rumored that these corpses were all killed by Gu Yuan alone from the person who had barged into the general''s estate last night.


    The General''s Estate was not to be trifled with. Gu Yuan retaliated forcefully, telling those petty thugs that they had the guts to come and cause trouble at the General''s Estate. This was the outcome.


    The name Gu Yuan shook the world, causing countless people to tremble in fear.


    At the same time, Lin Xing, who was sitting inside the house, naturally heard the news and was slightly moved. In this moment of crisis, he would never have imagined that Gu Yuan, who had once regarded him as his sworn enemy, would come forward and lend him a helping hand.


    He clenched his fists tightly. He had never yearned for such power before. He had to cultivate even more in order to live up to Gu Yuan''s expectations and have the qualifications to repay this favor.


    He immersed himself in the space of the golden mace as he cultivated the Sky Concealment Technique and the Nine Revolving Divine Lantern Technique. When he had the time, he would take out the spirit crystal and refine it.

 C13

    At the same time, Fang Tan had spread the word that the reward for Lin Xing''s head would increase from two thousand spirit crystals to four thousand spirit crystals. The number of people from the entire country mobilized, and the number of people rushing over to the general''s estate increased without any decrease.


    The capital was filled with a surging undercurrent as the winds and rain brewed. The various powers all mobilized, and all sorts of experts that were proficient in assassination also entered the fray.


    Gradually, the crowd realized something that made them jump. At this critical moment, there were actually people who began to engage in internal strife and merciless plundering.


    In particular, the Dragon and Tiger duo were the most daring and impudent. They didn''t kill, didn''t commit adultery, and only robbed houses. The most shameful thing was that they even singled out the old and weak.


    In just three days, hundreds of people had been robbed, and not even a single hair was left. Going back to the city had become a problem, and many people were gnashing their teeth in anger.


    Those who had been robbed formed a team on their own to form a common enemy and threw Fang Tan''s bounty to the side. They would definitely find the Dragon-Tiger duo and exterminate them for the common people.


    That night, in a corner of the general''s manor, Ah Shan proudly told Lin Xing, "Young master, the names this group of people have given us are truly impressive. Damn it, how could this young lord have such a good day?"


    Lin Qi hid his face behind the cloak and trembled slightly. He patted Ah Shan on the head and said, "Stop boasting. This is not a good thing. We need to restrain ourselves a little."


    Ah Shan pursed his lips. The young master was indeed shameless. He had brought him along as soon as the sun had risen, but he had not been able to see any signs of restraining himself.


    "Things haven''t been peaceful recently. The general''s residence has been under a lot of pressure and Gu Yuan can''t even hold it in any longer. If the situation continues like this, it''s not a good omen." Ashan reminded, he wanted to ask Lin Xing what kind of plan he had.


    Lin Qi nodded in agreement. He sighed and said in a cold voice, "Do they really think I have a good temper? Do they think I am just someone who can be slaughtered at will? "If I don''t teach them a lesson, they won''t even know how many eyes Prince Ma has."


    "Young Master, do you mean that we should start a massacre tonight?" Ashan was not the least bit afraid. Instead, he shouted excitedly.


    Lin Qi patted his head again and said in a low voice, "Keep your voice down." Even if we kill others to demonstrate our strength, this is our place. If we were to meet a true expert, it would be too late for us to escape. "


    "Young Master, I''m not stupid, I know what I''m doing." Ashan scratched his head and said.


    "Let''s go."


    The two of them hid in the dark and moved along the wall. Their figures were nimble like an ape''s as they moved swiftly.


    "Is everything ready? "Tonight, we will launch the offensive."


    At this time, a sharp female voice sounded, giving Ashan and Lin Xing a shock. They quickly hid and watched from the side.


    On the empty street in front of them, there was a row of black-clothed men standing side by side. There were about 20 people standing there, and in front of them was a figure wearing a black mask.


    When Lin Qi heard this voice, his eyes widened. As he expected, the masked woman was Fang Jing.


    "I''ll listen to whatever you say, Master." A row of men in black clothing looked as if they were about to die.


    "Remember, if you can capture Lin Xing alive, I will reward you heavily. I have already arranged everything within the general''s residence and no one will stop you. As for that Gu Yuan, he who blocks me dies."


    Fang Jing''s voice was sharp and filled with hatred. Every word she spoke was like she was spitting out through her teeth. She would not let Lin Xing die so easily.


    "Go!"


    With a wave of his hand, more than twenty black-clothed men scattered in all directions. They scattered and entered the general''s manor from different locations.


    Fang Jing did not follow. There were two men in black beside her protecting her, but she did not follow either.


    After the twenty-odd black-clothed men left, Lin Xing stared at Fang Jing. A wave of murderous intent suddenly appeared, almost as if it had materialized.


    Fang Jing stood at her original spot and coldly glanced at her surroundings. She intended to wait here for the black-clothed men to return and report a good news to her.


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, the sound of something tearing through the air rang out. A stream of sword Qi formed from spirit energy swept out in all directions. It was extremely swift and violent, causing Fang Jing''s beautiful face to turn pale.


    Fortunately, the two men in black beside her reacted nimbly. They moved at the same time and stood in front of her. An invisible force evolved, completely dispersing the sword Qi that shot towards her.


    Then two men in black cloaks fell to the ground.


    Lin Qi''s eyes, which were covered by the cloak, were shining brightly. Endless killing intent surged forth from him. Finally, he couldn''t help but take action.


    You are the Dragon and Tiger Pirates? "You have the guts to take note of me." Fang Jing looked at the two of them and recalled the rumors outside. She recognized them and spoke in a low voice.


    Ah Shan replied with disdain, "Who do you think you are?" "Later, I will strip your clothes and throw it on the city gate tower for everyone to see."


    "How dare you. Kill them. "


    Fang Jing was infuriated, and she ordered the two men in black to step forward.


    Ashan and Lin Xing had come to a tacit understanding. They did not need Lin Xing''s reminder to rush towards the two men in black at the same time. Meanwhile, Lin Qi stood on the spot, his gaze locked onto Fang Jing.


    After a short while, Ah Shan and the two men in black were engaged in a heated battle.


    Lin Qi looked around and knew that Ah Shan wouldn''t be able to delay any longer. He kicked off with his right foot, leaving a hole in the ground as he rushed towards Fang Jing at an extremely fast speed.


    The huge force of the shot caused Fang Jing to lose her color and step back, not daring to make contact with it. Fang Jing''s cultivation level was still at the Body Refinement Realm, but her combat experience was lacking.


    A black lamp appeared out of thin air, flickering with a bright light. It rapidly revolved around Lin Qi, striking a chill into Fang Jing''s heart.


    Shocked and terrified, she shouted, "Stop! I am the prime minister''s daughter. If you dare kill me, the Kingdom of Green Silver will not have a place for you."


    She was afraid. Although the person in front of her only had the strength to leave the country, his battle techniques and other techniques had all astonished her beyond belief.


    As for the two men in black, they were entangled tightly by Ah Shan and had no time to care about them. It was impossible for them to help her even if they wanted to.


    "Are you the daughter of the Minister of State? How can I not believe it? I have seen the daughter of the Minister of State before, if you have the ability, then take off your mask and verify your authenticity. " Lin Xing said.


    Fang Jing hesitated. It wasn''t that she didn''t want to, it was that she didn''t dare to.


    Seeing that she was hesitating, Lin Xing couldn''t wait any longer and said, "Then let me help you get it."


    As he said that, the black lantern shone brightly, chilling to the bone. Fang Jing could not bring herself to resist as she grabbed the mask.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Fang Jing had gone completely mad. Her face was exposed, and she seemed to have suffered an enormous humiliation as she roared loudly.


    Her face was not much different from before, but there was an eye-catching scar on her right cheek. It was shocking, and half of her face was unbearable to look at.


    "Weren''t you looking for me?"


    Lin Qi moved closer to her and lifted his black veil, revealing a sinister smile.


    "You ¡­ It''s you! " Fang Jing looked at the corner of Lin Qi''s face and saw him peeking at a leopard. In her mind, she saw Lin Qi''s face and yelled in resentment.


    However, before he could finish his sentence, a streak of flames flew out from the black lamp and pierced through Fang Jing''s neck, spraying out a large amount of blood.

 C14

    "Young Master, are you done over there?" Come and help me. "


    Ah Shan, who was fighting against the two men in black, shouted while struggling to hold on. Both of them were at the peak of the Deity Stage, and it was already quite difficult for him to resist until now. He was heavily injured with dark red blood dripping from his wounds.


    After getting rid of Fang Jing, Lin Xing activated the black light and came over to help him out of the encirclement. Strands of cold flames flew out, continuously shooting towards the two men in black.


    At first, the two of them were able to dissolve the flames, but as time passed, they could not withstand it at all. Like sharp swords piercing through their bodies, blood splattered everywhere and they fell to the ground with a loud thud.


    "Puff ¡­"


    Ashan felt as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders, and then his body went limp. He knelt down on one knee, spitting out a mouthful of blood.


    "How is it?" Lin Qi rushed over to help him, and while he was checking his injuries, he took out two elixirs from his waist and stuffed them into Ah Shan Kou''s mouth.


    With the elixir in his stomach, Ah Shan''s face looked a little better. He stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "It''s okay, I won''t die."


    Lin Xing didn''t say anything else, supporting Qin Wentian as they left. This was a place of conflict, where no one could stay for long.


    Just as the two of them lifted their feet, a black figure walked over from not too far away, slowly stepping in the darkness.


    The shadow''s footsteps were steady and his movements delicate. Huge amounts of energy revolved around it, echoing with the sound of wind and thunder, causing one''s scalp to go numb as they drew closer step by step.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows and stared straight at the black shadow. Ah Shan''s heart sank to the bottom and his face became deathly pale.


    The black shadow was very strong. On the surface, it at least had the strength of the peak of the leaving realm. The powerful aura caused Lin Qi to be moved.


    From afar, the shadow''s appearance could be clearly seen. He was wearing a tight black robe and a ghost mask. He looked extremely ferocious, and his appearance could not be seen.


    Even though his actions and actions had a history with the Underworld Sect, Lin Xing could still tell that this person was not a cultivator of the underworld.


    "Huff ¡­ Huff ¡­"


    The sound of the wind was like thunder, the shadow suddenly sped up, charging straight towards Lin Xing and Ah Shan, bringing along a boundless, brutal aura, just like a beast baring its fangs in the dark.


    "Get out of the way."


    Lin Qi tensed up and pushed Ah Shan away. A lamp appeared out of thin air, its two fingers held together as it activated the flames to stop Ah Shan.


    Immediately, rays of light shot out in all directions, and an ice-cold flame shot out like a sharp sword. It was extremely sharp, and incomparably ear-piercing. The black shadow leapt into the air and avoided the flames. Then, it flew down and struck Lin Qi''s head with its palm.


    Lin Qi''s eyes did not change. He immediately moved the black lamp above his head to block. As the two collided, waves spread out in all directions. The immense force caused his feet to sink half an inch into the ground, as if he was pressing down on a mountain.


    With a roar, the black light quickly surrounded the black flame. The flame slowly expanded until it completely surrounded the black flame. Instead of retreating, it moved up.


    He punched out three more times in the air before retreating far away.


    Divine power.


    An unprecedented look of concentration appeared on his face, as he made some guesses about Black Shadow''s identity.


    If his guess was right, the person in front of him was Suiren.


    However, from what he could remember, there was only one possibility for why Lin Ming did not refine out his divine force. He had hidden his strength deep enough, and this level of strength was rarely seen by anyone in the younger generation of the Green Silver Country.


    Division was the next stage of the second level. As the name implied, in order to enter this realm, one had to first differentiate the various elements in the world and cultivate only one. For example, amongst the people in the Celestial Sect, the only one who cultivated the Immortal energy was the person in the divine arts who trained in the divine arts.


    Spiritual energy was the lowest level of elemental energy and could be absorbed by any cultivator. However, as long as one advanced into the Dao splitting realm, they would be able to convert their spiritual energy into other types of energy, such as celestial spiritual energy or divine force ¡­


    After it was absorbed into the body, it would transform on its own and become a higher level of power.


    Both sides were covered in masks. Lin Xing had already recognized the identity of the black shadow, but whether or not Lin Feiming recognized him, he did not know. However, based on the situation, he was most likely aware of it.


    "I''ll surrender and spare your life."


    The black shadow''s throat moved slightly as it let out a hoarse voice, intentionally trying to conceal its identity.


    Lin Qi sneered. Did you take him for a three year old child?


    "Hurry up and leave."


    Right at this moment, Ah Shan, who was watching the fight from the side and was closer to the black shadow, grabbed his body, tightly wrapped it around him, and shouted towards Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi''s face darkened. He knew that Shadow was very strong, but if he were to abandon Ah Shan, it would be impossible for him to escape on his own.


    Taking advantage of this time, while Black Shadow was still in a daze, he rushed forward and used all his strength to activate two black lights. Veins bulged on his forehead, and ice and fire burst forth like small suns.


    A series of flames shot out, and at the same time, the Hidden Heaven Spell was fully unleashed. The power of laws flooded out and smashed into the brain.


    The black shadow''s body was entangled, unable to move for a while. Its body shook, sending Ah Shan flying more than ten meters away. By the time it had reacted, the various techniques that Lin Xing had used were already close by.


    Crackling noises and techniques filled the air. Even if the black shadow had one foot in the tunnel, he still wouldn''t be able to bear it. He flew backwards, rolling on the ground.


    "Let''s go."


    Lin Qi grabbed Ashan''s arm and turned into the alley. After a moment, the shadow returned to its senses, but there was already no trace of him.


    He flew into a rage and smashed the nearby wall into pieces with his palm. He had missed this great opportunity. In the future, if he wanted to kill Lin Xing, it would be even more difficult.


    Returning to the dark room of the general''s manor, Ashan vomited three liters of blood. His face was pale and his breathing was shallow.


    Lin Xing hastily fed the looted elixirs to him, regardless of whether they were black or white. After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, his complexion finally recovered and he drowsily fell asleep.


    Ah Shan''s wounds were too severe today. He was forced to endure by the two men in black until the black shadow came. Then, his exhausted body was thrown into the air and blood spilled all over the ground.


    After a simple cleaning up, Lin Xing also felt physically and mentally exhausted. He leaned against the wall and also fell asleep.

 C15

    After a hard night of fighting, both of them were physically and mentally exhausted, especially Ah Shan, who was severely injured and had almost died. In the end, it was Lin Xing who used a bunch of elixirs to revive him.


    Ah Shan''s face was pale. His internal organs were all injured and his body was weak. However, he could barely move. If he wanted to recover, he would need at least a month. Luckily, he wasn''t hurt at all. When he thought about the scene from last night, he still felt scared.


    Lin Xing was not that exhausted. After a night of rest, he felt much better.


    In his curiosity, Lin Xing told Ah Shan to ask a passing servant that Lin Shen had returned home tomorrow, and ordered Fei Ming to clean up the servants in the mansion. The house of the general was now in a completely new and clean state.


    "It''s only been a few days, how can he be so fast?" Lin Qi was deep in thought, and the peculiar light in his eyes trembled. No one knew what he was thinking about.


    After that, he told Ah Shan to go get some pen and paper, and wrote out a long line of words on the white paper. Then, he wrapped the letter in an envelope and passed it to Ah Shan, saying, "Ah Shan, give this letter to a servant. Also, give him some spirit crystals and have him pass it to Gu Yuan, tell him that his elder sister from the countryside sent it over."


    "Young Master, could it be that you want to send Young Master Gu away by writing this letter?" After such a long time together, Ah Shan was able to figure out what Lin Qi was thinking. His body trembled, and his expression was somewhat aghast.


    He advised, "Young Master, we have not reached the point where we can let the fish die and the net break. We can wait. Ling Feimu is not a good person. We witnessed his strength last night. "


    "There''s no need for you to persuade me anymore. I''ve already made up my mind. Also, after you leave, don''t come back." Lin Qi''s gaze was firm as he clenched his fists. He had decided to end this matter tonight.


    "Sigh ¡­"


    Ashan let out a long sigh. He understood his young master''s personality. Once he made a decision, he would not be able to pull back even eight horses. But he looked worried. He took the letter, clutched his chest and limped out of the room.


    If Lin Shen came back, he would never have the chance to kill Lin Xing again.


    Thus, Lin Qi predicted that he would definitely take action tonight. Even if he had to take the risk, he must kill Lin Xing tonight.


    Lin Xing''s thoughts were the same as his. He might as well help him and send Gu Yuan away. Everything would come to light tonight. If they didn''t die, then it would be the same as dying.


    As expected, it was as Lin Qi expected. After Gu Yuan received the letter, he hurriedly rode his horse out of the capital. And this action, of course I didn''t escape from the eyes of Flying Cry, the heavens really are helping me, tonight will be a rare opportunity.


    The general''s manor was bustling around as usual during the day, bustling with activity. But when night descended, it was as if all the people within the mansion had evaporated, disappearing without a trace. There wasn''t even a single sound, and it was deathly silent.


    "Ling Feimu, this is your last chance. You must seize it."


    The wind began to blow, and the rain started to fall heavily.


    Lin Xing sat inside the house and waited. However, he did not find anyone making him cry until midnight. He could not help but frown.


    He could not believe that with his decisive and vicious character, this was a good opportunity to strike.


    Lin Qi narrowed his eyes and then slowly closed them. The younger generation leaned against the wall, looking relaxed.


    "Are you waiting for me?"


    "Yes. "You are too cautious. You only dared to show yourself when the sun is about to rise." Lin Xing pretended to sneer.


    Black Shadow''s appearance was exactly the same as last night. He wore a ghost mask, his throat rolled, and his hoarse voice sounded as if it was being bitten by millions of ants as he said, "As long as you can disappear without anyone noticing, it''s also a good thing to be cautious. Was that you last night? "


    "That''s right, it''s me. What a coincidence. If you couldn''t kill me last night, then you can''t today either. Was there still a need to be so secretive at this point? I might as well take off my mask. " Lin Xing''s right hand gripped the crossbow under the cover of the weeds, and he entered into battle mode.


    "Haha ¡­"


    As the shadow laughed, it took off its mask, revealing a young face. This face, Lin Xing was extremely familiar with. If it wasn''t Lin Fei-Ming, who else could it be?


    "Brother Xing, the genius that others are proud of, the proud son of heaven who once stood at the peak of the young generation, let me end your life today. Don''t worry, I will give you a quick death." Ling Feimu said.


    "Then I must really thank brother Feiming."


    As he spoke, Lin Xing pulled out the crossbow hidden under the weeds and released more arrows. His right leg borrowed the force of the wall to follow suit.


    The crossbow was a weapon that he had looted and it didn''t have much power. After the arrow was shot, he threw it to the side just to catch Fei Ming off guard.


    "Hmph."


    With a wave of his sleeve, he dispelled all of the arrows that were shooting at him. Then, he struck out with his palm, and a huge white palm suddenly formed into a barrier in front of him.


    Divine force began to evolve one after another, as if they were coming from beyond the heavens. The sky was suddenly filled with dazzling and dense symbols.


    Lin Qi, who was rushing forward, did not hesitate as he continued his charge. A black light flashed and the white palm print was shattered into pieces.


    "This is a celestial spell ¡­"


    With his vast knowledge and knowledge, Flying Cry immediately recognized that the black lamp was an immortal technique. Shock appeared on his face; this Xing brother of his was also very well-hidden.


    "So what if it''s an Immortal Sect technique? I''m not afraid. You won''t be able to escape death today." As the cry flew out of the house, the divine force surged as it swept towards the black light.


    Lin Xing also followed out. The tiny wisp of divine force wrapped around the black lamp, making it unable to move. Thus, he decided to convert the black lamp to the Hidden Heaven Technique.


    "Do you recognize this arcane skill?"


    Cultivators were few in number within the Heaven Ascension Sect, but they were, after all, a large sect that had existed since the ancient times. With their illustrious reputation, it would not be strange for Fevvers to recognize them. However, the sky concealing technique was different. If he hadn''t been in the Skypalace Sect and had rich experience, he probably wouldn''t have heard of the Sky Concealment Method.


    After pondering for a long time, Feiming could not come up with an answer. He viciously said: "No matter what technique it is, it will turn into dust in front of powerful strength."


    The weak God Power, accompanied by the boundless Spiritual Energy, released the aura of the peak of the Unity Stage. His domineering aura leaked out from his body as he pressed forward.

 C16

    The pressure was like a mountain, almost suffocating. The surrounding flowers and plants were all snapped due to being unable to bear the pressure. Some of the rocks were even turned into fine powder.


    Lin Qi''s expression was solemn. He knew that he had made Flying Cry reveal his true strength, but he did not cower. He did not dodge, and instead, charged towards the pressuring region.


    He activated the Hidden Heaven Technique to its limit, and an invisible force appeared. It pushed away all of the pressure, and rushed straight towards Fei Ming''s head.


    Lin Qi''s fist contained the power of the laws. When it came into contact with his body, it immediately drilled into his body and madly strangled his life force.


    "Ah ¡­"


    "I''ve underestimated you." It made Fei Ming grind his teeth and charge around like a madman. His momentum was unstoppable as his consciousness began to blur. And all of this was due to the contribution of the rules.


    Lin Xing''s face was expressionless as he retreated ten meters back, looking for the flaw in Flying Tone, which he had fallen into a state of madness. His gaze was like lightning as he threw out another punch.


    With the strength of the laws, even with Fei Ming''s cultivation level, he was unable to suppress them. They wreaked havoc within his body, destroying his meridians and causing his entire body to be drenched in blood. In just a few moments, he had turned into a man made of blood.


    Lying on the ground, he seemed to want to say something, but his mouth could not think of anything. He struggled for a while and then fell silent.


    One of the Eight Protectors of the Azure Silver Country, Mu Feimu, had fallen just like that.


    Just as he closed his eyes, a group of people rushed in from the outside. A red light was already appearing from the east, and the sky was covered in fiery clouds. The red light was enough to make people shiver.


    This group of people were all dressed in exquisite armor, carrying armor on their backs. The one leading them was a middle-aged man around the age of forty. He had a beard and had a dignified expression on his face.


    Beside him stood four young generals and over a hundred awe-inspiring armored warriors. The four young men glanced at the corpse and then shifted their gazes to Lin Xing, their eyes filled with ill intent.


    Seeing the appearance of this group of people, Lin Xing''s expression was somewhat unnatural, especially when he stared at the middle-aged man, his mind was in a daze.


    This was because this person was none other than his father, Lin Shen.


    Scanning the mess around, Lin Shen''s face was ashen, as if she was disappointed. "I knew something was going to happen tonight, so I purposely sped up my pace, but I didn''t expect that there would still be people who died. Fei Ming, ah, Fei Ming, you are too rash."


    Hearing this, Lin Xing was immediately thrown into disarray. Was this still his father? Suddenly, his voice trembled as he said, "What you mean is, should I die?"


    He would have never thought that such words would come out of his own father''s mouth, causing his heart to turn cold.


    "Hmph, neither of you want anything to happen to me." Lin Shen stared at Lin Qi, a bone-piercing coldness in his eyes.


    Lin Qi turned his neck and replied, "This person tried to kill me time and time again. I''ve already left him with an intact corpse."


    "Extra-legal kindness? "Good, good, good, unfilial son, what an unfilial son." Lin Shen flew into a rage as he said the three words'' good ''. He was so angry that he turned around and left without looking back.


    The four young generals at his side shot him cold glares as they snorted in unison and left. The remaining armored soldiers also left.


    In the same place, Lin Qi''s face was ashen. Even though he had killed Ling Feiming, he could not feel any joy at this moment. His father''s tone was too harsh.


    In the general''s manor, in a pavilion, a stone table was filled with wine jugs. Lin Xing continuously poured wine into his mouth and drank by himself. He really wanted to get drunk.


    At this moment, his heart was in a mess. He felt that these eighteen years had been a dream. When he woke up from it, reality was so cruel and surreal.


    Master''s actions had already caused his heart to break once, but now even his own father was unable to understand him.


    The pungent wine was rolling in his stomach. Tears could be seen at the corners of his eyes as his intestines and intestines were torn apart.


    "Young Master." Ashan walked over slowly, but he did not stop him. He knew that he was suffering in his heart. There were too many emotions that needed to be vented.


    "You have a position in my heart, and it''s very heavy, but I''m not good at expressing it. You might not know this, but the lord did not hesitate to anger the minister of state and led troops to surround the prime minister of the country, forcing Fang Tan to revoke the bounty. Furthermore, he ordered someone to clean up your old room, saying that he wanted you to return to live there. And you even sent someone to deliver a large amount of heaven and earth treasures, as well as an uncountable amount of all kinds of spiritual medicines. From these, you can see that his heart loves you. " Ashan comforted her.


    "Sigh ¡­"


    Lin Xing stopped the wine jug in his hand and shook his head, letting out a heavy sigh.


    Within the Prime Minister''s Residence, a group of beautiful women were playing around naked in a luxurious pavilion. They stretched out their fingers and pointed at a young man who was chasing after them.


    "Don''t run, I''m coming to catch you." The young man was also naked, playing around. The scene was extremely obscene.


    At this time, Fang Tan walked in from the outside and said to the young man, "Your Highness, this trash''s life is too tough, Lin Shen has already returned. As long as he hides in the general''s manor, we cannot kill him."


    After the good news had been interrupted, Lu Fan''s face was filled with displeasure, and his spirits were greatly dampened. While the ladies served him, he said to Fang Tan, "You want to die? "In my opinion, you all are stupid. You can''t even take care of a single piece of trash. Say, do you think you''re stupid?"


    After being scolded, Fang Tan gritted his teeth, but he did not dare resist, and asked solemnly: "Then what does Your Highness think of it?"


    "There''s no rush in killing him. Let''s take a break for now. I''ve received news that an important figure will arrive in the capital city tomorrow. I need to personally go welcome him." This matter shall be left to you to handle, there must not be the slightest mistake. " Lu Fan said.


    Fang Tan''s eyes froze, and he said: "A big shot? "How old is it?"


    "So much so that you can''t even begin to imagine. If you can please that person, then the entire Azure Silver Nation will be yours." Lu Fan smiled mysteriously, allowing the surrounding girls to stroke him.


    "Yes, I will arrange it right away."


    Fang Tan''s body trembled. When he heard this, he was overjoyed. He guessed that most likely, the powerful figures mentioned by Lu Fan were from the Heaven Sect. If he could get close to this tree, then who would be able to oppose him in the future?


    It had to be known that the Azure Silver Country was a part of the Skypiercing Sky Sect, and their power and influence could be said to be monstrous in this million li area. Even if they were just trying to curry favor with an outer disciple, it would still be a profitable business.

 C17

    Time flowed like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.


    The atmosphere in the general''s manor was strange today. The servants within the mansion hurriedly left, and many people brought out large chests from the treasury. The two people moved the chests one after another towards the manor''s entrance.


    It was the day of debt collection for the Skypiercing Sect again. The boxes were filled with all kinds of elixirs, spirit crystals, and many other bizarre items. The General''s Estate was now in a state of absolute poverty. As long as there was anything of value, they would use it all to pay their debt.


    The entire general''s manor was almost in the air, and some people''s crotch pants had also been used as a pawn.


    What was strange was that the person who came to collect the debt today wanted to see Lin Qi by name. This was an unprecedented event, and after he became a mortal, the people from the Sky Sect saw that his brain was working on it and thought that there must be something strange about him.


    At this moment, Lin Xing was moving into a new room to practice cultivation when he was called over by a servant of Lin Shen. He walked into the front hall.


    The leader of the Sky Sect was a young woman who was as beautiful as a flower. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were white. Her temperament was cold and aloof, giving people a feeling that she was too high to reach. Lin Qi did not recognize her, but judging from her clothing, she was most likely an inner disciple.


    Beside her stood a large group of young people, with Fang Tan and Lu Fan impressively standing in line. The former, in particular, was standing at the very edge with a bent knee.


    "Miss Quan Li, this is my son, Lin Xing." Lin Shen''s posture was not considered respectful, but it was also very polite. After all, her life vein was still in the hands of this young woman.


    The moment Lin Xing stepped into the main hall, that group of people turned their gaze towards him, sizing him up as the former head disciple of the Heaven Sect.


    With a helpless expression on his face, Lin Qi shrugged and said, "That is just a matter of the past, there is no point in mentioning it."


    He took out a letter from his waist and handed it to Lin Xing, saying, "This time, I was able to personally come to your Lin Family to collect my debt completely because of Senior Sister Cang Xiaoxiao. This is the letter she wanted me to pass on to you."


    Lin Xing was stunned, his heart filled with melancholy and nostalgia. When he received the jade slip under the jealous gazes of Lu Fan and the rest, Lin Shen was also taken aback.


    Even if he was ignorant and ill-informed, he had heard of Cang Xiaoxiao''s name before. Cang Xiaoxiao was one of the chief disciples of the Skysplit Sect, and since a young age, she had an outstanding reputation that shook the entire world. Furthermore, she possessed a devastating beauty, and her pursuers could line up from the east side of the Skysplit Sect to the west.


    Especially for Lu Fan and the young disciples from the Heaven Descending Sect, their eyes seemed to be spitting fire and their faces were filled with jealousy.


    "Senior sister ¡­" Lin Qi mumbled with a bitter expression. Memories from the past kept rushing into his mind.


    He picked up the envelope and sniffed it. He missed the smell of Cang Xiao and was intoxicated by it.


    "Lin Xing, how dare you!" This action directly made Lu Fan and the group of young people unable to sit still. They were like a thunderstorm and really wanted to strangle him to death.


    Quan Li''s pretty face also turned cold. He had just taken out the envelope from her waist. It was still warm from then on and he felt extremely displeased as if he had been desecrated.


    "Wake up, quickly open it and take a look." Lin Shen observed the situation and saw the expression on Quan Li''s face. This master was the one in control of all the subordinate states of the Heaven Ascension Sect, so he couldn''t afford to anger her. Zhang Xuan urged Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi moved the letter away from his nose, his expression still unsatisfied. For Quan Li and Lu Fan''s group, there was no need to mention how hateful they were.


    After reading the letter, he folded the letter and placed it on his waist. Then, he let out a long sigh.


    He said that he also had his own difficulties. After his cultivation had been crippled, his master''s temperament had become extremely irritable, and she had locked him in her room, not leaving even the door. Cang Xiao''s words were filled with concern for Lin Qi. She asked how his life was and even said that she had time to personally visit him.


    Under the strict supervision of Cang Yushi, he did not even have the chance to go down the mountain. Since he was young, the person he had the most contact with was his senior, Cang Xiao.


    Cang Xiaoxiao had been adopted by Cang Yushi since she was young. She was an orphan without a name, and the name she had been given was given to her by Cang Yushi.


    She and Lin Xing were like childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was stronger than gold and steel, and they both had good feelings for each other. Cang Yushi also saw this point and promised the two of them that as long as Lin Xing advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage, they would get married.


    The Ancient God''s physique was cursed by the gods, and it was irreversible. Naturally, it was impossible for them to get married. Lin Xing left the mountain gate alone, and Cang Xiaoxiao stood on a mountain peak as she watched him leave.


    Just as he was lost in his memories, a large group of servants came over with wooden boxes, interrupting his thoughts with restless voices.


    Quan Li made a circle and nodded with satisfaction. He said to Lin Shen, "This month is not bad. It''s enough." Then, he suddenly changed the topic, "However, the number of people last month is vastly different from the number specified. This has already displeased the entire group of elders. General Lin, you have to put in more effort."


    Lin Shen''s heart skipped a beat. This month, still, Lin Fei-ming had been the one to steal from the General''s Estate. Just these few things were still far from enough to fill the gaps in the Sky Sect''s teeth.


    He pleaded, "Miss Quan Li, my family really can''t take it out. This is the last property of my family. Can you give me a few more days next month?"


    "How can you agree to such a thing?" Lin Shen, did you lose your head? This useless son of yours, back then in my sect, he spent so much heaven and earth treasures to make it so that other disciples have no way of cultivating. Now that he''s crippled, he has no value at all. "None at all." Lu Fan sneered, and the young man beside him also followed suit.


    He swore to himself that he must kill this person. Although his father did not like him, he was still his own father. How could he have fallen to the point of being humiliated by Lu Fan?


    Lin Shen did not get angry. With a worried look, she pleaded at Quan Li again, "Is there really no other way?"


    "I do, but I''m afraid that you won''t dare to do it." Quan Li bit his lips.


    Lin Shen''s eyes lit up. Seizing this sliver of hope, she quickly asked, "Why don''t you tell me first?"


    "In recent years, the Giant Spirit Sect has constantly provoked me to ascend to the Heavenly Territory, and the elders have repeatedly given in, but now, they have already sent their troops to the front lines, the situation has become increasingly fierce, and it is only a matter of time before the war breaks out. If you can send half of your army to kill the enemies, you can barely cancel some of the debt, and this is the only way to save the Lin Clan." Quan Zian replied.


    "No, I won''t." Without waiting for Lin Shen''s reply, Lin Xing decisively refused.


    The disciples of the sect were mainly focused on body tempering, and they cultivated the absolute bodies of the six sects. All of them refined their bodies like wild beasts, and with powerful experts as numerous as the clouds, there was nothing they could not destroy. The people in their territory were also just like this, and their battle prowess was extraordinary as Lin Shen led the army of the Green Silver Country, which was simply too dangerous.


    This wasn''t a one on one fight. When the two armies fought, the Giant Spirit Sect, which was famous for having a unique body, had an overwhelming advantage.


    Lin Shen gritted his teeth and shouted at Lin Qi, "You unfilial son, isn''t the current situation in my Lin Clan caused by you? If you don''t agree, then don''t agree. What are you going to pay back this debt for?" Then he turned to Quan Li and said firmly: "I''ll go."


    Lin Xing was bitter, miserable, and unable to refute her words.


    Fang Tan jumped out and scolded, "Lin Shen, if you want to die, I won''t stop you, but you are so selfish. You can''t let my people of Green Silver Country die with you."


    "Hmph, I, the Cyan Silver Man, should have been dismembered and died in battle. I believe that my army would be willing to follow me." For the sake of my land, I have only taken half of my legion with me to prevent others from looting us. " After saying that last sentence, Lin Shen coldly glanced at Lu Fan.


    Lu Fan''s gaze trembled. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Quan Li.


    Quan Li said: "Don''t worry about that, go to the front line and kill the enemy, even if it doesn''t have much of an effect, you''re still a meritorious official of our Sky Sect. I, Quan Li, am the first to disagree if anyone dares to touch the Azure Silver Country at this point. "Since you''ve already decided, we must set off in three days."


    "Yes." Lin Shen firmly nodded his head, not allowing any dissuasion. His temper was the same as Lin Xing''s; once he decided on something, even eight horses wouldn''t be able to pull him back.


    Lin Qi sighed, feeling incomparably guilty in his heart. His father was right, this situation was all caused by him.

 C18

    The second day after Quan Li left, he had his army move to the front of the army to report to the king only after he had traveled a great distance.


    The court was filled with the sound of impeachment.


    For the past few days, Lin Xing hadn''t been idling around. Lin Shen had taken four of the Eight Protectors with him this time, and two of them were guarding the border. Gu Yuan was the only one left in the manor.


    Every time he intentionally made Gu Yuan stay behind and acknowledge his ability, he knew that Gu Yuan had no other intentions behind him. He was righteous and righteous, allowing him to rule the estate. Lin Shen could be at ease. He could also be in charge of Lin Xing''s safety.


    This was equivalent to an invisible bodyguard. Presumably, this was also the good intentions of his father, who was difficult to talk to and didn''t like to communicate with.


    Because of Fei Ming''s death, Gu Yuan was not good at managing things, or perhaps, he was too lazy to ask. Instead, he spent the entire day in his room, fiddling with something. Lin Xing volunteered to take over this huge family business.


    In the morning, when the sky was still dark, Lin Xing was walking in the back garden, breathing in the fresh air and admiring the crystal clear dewdrops that dripped onto the leaves.


    Gu Yuan seemed to be enjoying the beautiful scenery as he walked towards them.


    "Thank you for helping me." Normally, meeting Gu Yuan in the manor was even harder than ascending to heaven. Since they rarely met today, he naturally had to show his gratitude.


    Gu Yuan didn''t even raise his head. His eyes that were hidden under his eyelashes were even sharper than sabers. As usual, he coldly said, "You misunderstand. I''m not helping you, I''m helping the general''s estate. This is also my home. So you don''t have to thank me. "


    Saying that, he took a step forward and left. Before Lin Xing could regain his senses, his body was already submerged in the white fog.


    Lin Qi faintly smiled, not caring much. It was as if he was once again seeing that stubborn young man. He wanted to spar with him, but he never gave up, and was as tenacious as ever.


    After taking over everything in the general''s mansion, Lin Xing finally understood the pain of having to deal with ten thousand things a day. He busied himself everyday and could not help but feel sympathy for Fei Ming. It truly was not easy. After admiring it for a while, he rushed back to the main hall and began his day''s work.


    Sitting at the top of the great hall, a large group of stewards went up to report that the general''s residence had been in trouble lately, and that there would be setbacks every day.


    Lin Qi listened attentively as a light flashed through his eyes. He was deep in thought.


    The group of stewards were talking inside and outside, and they were trying to figure out the financial crisis that the General''s Estate was in.


    There were also people who proposed to divert the military funds and make up for the deficit first before paying it back in the future, only to be glared at back at by Lin Xing. At this critical moment, the defense strategy of the Green Silver Country could not be slackened.


    Moreover, the General''s Estate was now a bottomless pit. Every month, they would come here to collect a large amount of debt, and in the future ¡­ If this continued, he would not be able to make up for it in his next life. In the future, he would only be dragging the entire country into a crisis. He, Lin Xing, was a sinner after all.


    "Ah Shan, how is the matter that I asked you to investigate?" After the group of stewards left, Lin Xing asked Ah Shan who was standing in a corner.


    Ever since Lin Xing had risen to prominence, Ah Shan''s status had also skyrocketed, becoming the general director of the General''s Estate. He was also Lin Xing''s most trusted assistant.


    After several days of rest, Ah Shan had regained his vigorous and vigorous state, his whole body was brimming with vitality, his spirit was lively and full of vigor. He respectfully said to Lin Xing: "It has been thoroughly investigated, Young Master, we do not know about it but this investigation is truly frightening. Not to mention the other cities of our Azure Silver Country, just in this capital city, a large portion of the businesses have already been contracted by the Prime Minister''s Estate, including brothels, restaurants, pill refineries, and numerous smithing shops. More or less. A month''s income is equivalent to ten years'' income from our General''s Estate. "He''s as rich as a nation."


    "Young master, in truth, all of this is only on the surface. According to my thorough investigation, the Prime Minister''s Palace''s greatest income comes from the withering thunder leaves." Ashan Road.


    The corners of Lin Xing''s lips curled up as he asked, "Withered Leaf?"


    Ah Shan nodded and explained, "This Thunder Wither Leaf is a special product of Black Wind Mountain and is a divine tool used only by the military. Ashan nodded and explained," This Thunder Wither Leaf is a special product of Black Wind Mountain and is a divine tool used only by the military.


    "I heard that the person in charge of selling the leaves is a woman called Bu Tiantong from Black Wind Mountain. She is currently a guest at the Fang family."


    "Bu Tiantong! What a coincidence. " Lin Xing narrowed his eyes and frowned.


    "Keep an eye on Bu Tiantong''s movements. Once you leave, report to me immediately." Lin Qi said solemnly.


    "Yes." Ashan replied.


    "My father has been in charge of the army for many years, and he has a lot of prestige in the army. Although many of his old subordinates have retired and are living in seclusion, my father can now use them. What do you think they will do?" Lin Qi pondered for a moment before replying.


    "Not to mention in the army, even in the entire Azure Silver Country, the Old Master is number one. They will definitely serve him and they will do it willingly." Ashan said confidently.


    "Fine, go to the shack and get the name list. Contact them and ask them to open another business next to the businesses under the government of the prime minister. These old men have all contributed greatly to our Azure Silver Country, and in their own territory, they can be said to be of great honor. It would be hard for them not to get angry and take care of the business." The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth curved into a smile, filled with confidence.


    Ashan Tong''s face was full of joy. He had built his own business and had funded by the military old man. He looked very practical.


    Lin Xing then ordered, "We will start from the edge of the city. If it is effective, we will then slowly infiltrate the capital and nibble at it."


    "As you wish. I''ll make the arrangements." Ashan was overjoyed. He turned around and walked away.


    Lin Xing stopped him and then reminded him, "Remember, you must watch over Bu Tiantong. I will also take over this business of withering thunder leaves."

 C19

    Following the order given by Lin Qi, everyone in the general''s manor moved swiftly and decisively. Every one of them forgot to eat or sleep as they immersed themselves in their work, in a position where they could rise to the top day by day.


    After receiving the order, they immediately gathered their juniors and juniors to start moving in a flustered manner. Moreover, they all knew that it was very difficult to get the general''s house to pay for their own finances, and many people were willing to fork out their own money to refuse to get the general''s house to pay for their own expenses.


    This caused Lin Qi''s heart to be filled with gratitude. At the same time, he also lamented his father''s high morale.


    He flipped through the account book in his hand and looked at the densely packed numbers on it. Even with his mental fortitude, a smile bloomed on his face.


    After a few days of hard work, the results were obvious, and the wealth steadily flowed into the treasury. After tasting the sweet taste, Lin Xing decisively sent people to continue expanding the business, forming a siege that spread to the capital city.


    It was so lively, pushing the cup and holding the lamp.


    If Lin Xing was here, he would have definitely recognized one of the young women and one of the young men.


    These two people were none other than Bu Tiantong and Lu Fan.


    Everyone at the table was circling around the two of them, and all the topics were surrounding them.


    Fang Tan raised his wine cup, and with a face full of flattery, he said to Bu Tiantong, "This time''s withering thunder leaves are not only of good quality, but also twice as many as usual. Our Prime Minister''s Palace and Black Wind Mountain will be interacting with each other frequently in the future.


    Bu Tiantong lightly smiled and nodded. She did not open her mouth and her eyelashes trembled. She did not mind.


    Fang Tan finished his glass of wine with a smile, but that smile was not real. There was a hint of worry on his face, it seemed like he had been worrying a lot.


    In the past few days, the business of the Prime Minister''s Estate in various cities had been pushed aside. A group of people had appeared out of nowhere, brazenly going against the Prime Minister''s Estate by opening shops next to their own businesses to steal business. If it was just one city, then it would be easy to get into a city like this, but most of the cities in the Azure Silver Country had these people.


    Currently, the properties owned by the Prime Minister''s residence could be described as desolate and desolate. Even the old customers had all been dragged away and people came to report them. Because there was no business, many property owners had no choice but to sell their businesses at a low price.


    Thinking up to this point, he couldn''t help but feel infuriated.


    However, when he saw Bu Tiantong, he felt much more peaceful. The business of the Prime Minister''s residence added up didn''t involve selling the leaves to earn money. As long as the owner was pleased with the deal, they could earn a lot of money in the same way.


    The alcohol had made his vision hazy. He shook his head and tossed aside all his worries. Under Bu Tiantong''s gaze, he continued to drink three cups in a row.


    Suddenly, his stomach felt a burst of heat. His face flushed red, and his entire body felt scorching hot. In front of him was a dazzling sight. Staring at the beautiful figure before him, his heart moved.


    Not good, he was drugged. His mind was suddenly shaken, but now that he knew it was too late. He couldn''t suppress his emotions at all. He looked like a spring breeze leaking out, afraid that he wouldn''t be able to vent.


    He left his seat and walked behind Bu Tiantong, his body swaying unsteadily. Everyone was baffled.


    Unexpectedly, Fang Tan reached out his pig''s hand and grabbed at Bu Tiantong''s chest. This move caused everyone''s eyes to fall on the ground.


    "Pa ¡­"


    Bu Tiantong clenched his fists and stood up. He turned around and sent a slap across the face.


    With this slap, Fang Tan spun three rounds in place, his consciousness fully restored. But before he could open his mouth, the medicinal properties spread to his body again. He directly carried Bu Tiantong to the table. Fortunately, the latter dodged quickly, causing Fang Tan to fall onto the table, his face full of leaves.


    "Brother Fang, you''re drunk! Someone, help him back!" Lu Fan was ashamed of him. Anger was written all over his face as he gave the order.


    "No. "I don''t have much, I can still drink."


    With the support of the two high-ranking officials, Fang Tan shouted loudly with a face as if he had been burned.


    "Young Master Fang, come, I''ll drink with you."


    A group of people emerged from the stairwell. Lin Xing led Ah Shan and a group of soldiers upstairs. His voice was coming from his mouth.


    "Lin Qi, this piece of trash is worthy to drink with me. Why don''t you take a piss and take care of yourself?" "Even your dad doesn''t have the right to drink with me at the same table." Fang Tan saw the person from afar in a daze. He knew that person even if he turned into ashes, he would still be able to recognize him.


    Bu Tiantong looked at Lin Qi, his eyes turned and he seemed to be deep in thought.


    The other high-ranking officials, including Lu Fan, looked at him with unfriendly expressions, indicating that they did not welcome him.


    Lin Xing shook his head with a helpless look on his face. He picked up a basin of cold water beside him and poured it over Fang Tan.


    Fang Tan''s mind was set. Although he looked to be in a sorry state, after being splashed with cold water, his mind was more or less at ease.


    "Lin Xing, you and I are irreconcilable."


    Even if he was a pig''s head, after seeing Lin Ming, he already understood everything.


    All of this was done by Lin Qi.


    In this Azure Silver Country, apart from the general''s manor, who would dare openly oppose the government of another country?


    He wanted to charge forward and tear this annoying young man into shreds, but just as he took a step, the armored warrior''s steel saber behind Lin Xing flared and his anger was immediately extinguished.


    This was prepared...


    If I take over the general''s residence now, I will have the responsibility of protecting the safety of the country''s ruler and the management of the city. Young Master Fang, do you have any disloyalty to the people of Black Wind Mountain that you colluded with? "


    Lin Qi paced back and forth as if there was no one around. He first glanced at Bu Tiantong and then changed the topic, questioning Fang Tan.


    "Lin Xing, what nonsense are you talking about? Your dad just left, and I wanted to let you enjoy a few more days of blessings. Are you really thinking that you''ve lived too long?" Fang Tan''s expression was stern. He was sure that Lin Qi would not dare to do anything to him, so he warned him instead.


    Lin Qi coldly snorted and said, "Men, arrest him."


    "You dare ¡­"


    The soldier stepped forward. Fang Tan''s face was pale, and he couldn''t help but retreat.


    "Right... We''re just talking business. " Although they had Lu Fan and Bu Tiantong on their side, Lin Xing was, after all, relying on his numbers. He only wanted to go out today to eat, so he did not bring any guards with him.


    Lu Fan''s expression was cold and stern. His thoughts were the same as Fang Tan, so he too did not speak.


    Bu Tiantong secretly shook his head and could not help but feel disappointed. He was frightened by Lin Xing''s words and was unable to show his true colors.


    However, Lin Xing had a much higher opinion of Lin Ming. After the battle at Mount Desolate Mountain, this young man''s ability had increased by a lot.


    Endure, courage, scheming, and the steadiness and shrewdness hidden in his eyes were obviously not what a seventeen or eighteen year old youth should have.

 C20

    Although there were many people on Lin Xing''s side, Lu Fan and Fang Tan were not weak either, especially Lu Fan and Bu Tiantong, who were both at the peak of the Acupoint Charging Realm. They were no worse than Lin Feiming, and if they were to fight against each other, their side would not be able to take any advantage. Moreover, with Lu Fan and Bu Tiantong''s strength, if they wanted to leave, they wouldn''t be able to stop them.


    Today''s objective had already been achieved, there was no need to be so aggressive. Lin Xing took a step back and slowed down his posture. He extended his arm and gestured to Bu Tiantong, "I am not here to cause trouble, but the people of Black Wind Mountain are here. I cannot ignore this matter." "Since your business has been settled, please ask Miss Bu to leave immediately. For the sake of insurance, I will personally escort you to the city gate."


    "Hmph." Bu Tiantong coldly snorted and started walking towards the stairs.


    Lin Xing and the guard beside him automatically opened up a path. The former smiled faintly, and a crafty look flashed across his eyes.


    "Hold on."


    The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. His enthusiasm was not quite right, he was a disciple of the Skypiercing Sect and a prince of the Red Luan Kingdom, when had he ever been threatened like this?


    As his mind raced to this point, he felt an inexplicable rage surge up in his heart. He looked at Lin Xing with murderous intent overflowing from him.


    "I wonder what Prince Lu wants now?" Lin Qi was about to step down the stairs when he heard this and turned around.


    "Lin Xing, do you really take yourself seriously? You might as well take a piss. " Lu Fan pointed at Lin Qi and said harshly.


    "What are you talking about? My young master is a hundred times stronger than you." Ashan cursed, jumping up and down in indignation.


    Lin Xing remained expressionless as he calmly replied, "Prince Lu is truly worthy of being a disciple of the Sky-rising Sect. He really is overbearing, and has made me look at him in a new light. Are you trying to stop me just because you want to insult me?"


    Lu Fan''s gaze became sluggish, and then his lips curled up into a smile, "I said, if we meet again, I will trample all over your former glory." "Scram, last time Quan Li was there, I barely allowed you to escape this calamity. If you weren''t a coward, you would have received three of my moves today."


    "Your Highness is right, Lin Xing, if you were a man." Just take this, don''t make the entire capital look down on you, you piece of trash. " It was obvious that he had just entered the advanced stage of the Body Fusion realm. With his strength, it would be difficult for him to even block one of Lu Fan''s attacks, taking all three of his moves. If he didn''t die, he would at least be crippled. Thinking of this, a smile subconsciously appeared on his face.


    "Alright, I''ll take it. It''s only three moves."


    Lin Qi stepped forward, his expression calm.


    Bu Tiantong''s beautiful eyes widened. She couldn''t figure out why Lin Xing was so calm. Could it be ¡­


    As for Ah Shan and the group of guards behind Lin Xing, they all had strange expressions on their faces. Did the news of Fei Ming being killed by Lin Qi not spread out? Three moves? Lu Fan was too ignorant.


    "Arrogant! Three moves are enough for you to lie in bed for the rest of your life." Lu Fan and Fang Tan looked at the strange expressions on their faces, bewildered and uncertain. The former had a bad premonition, but still spoke arrogantly.


    Lu Fan''s moves were quick and violent. As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed over. The long sword on his back instantly unsheathed and hovered above his head, letting out waves of sword-teeth sounds. Taking a big stride, he turned around and charged straight at Lin Xing.


    Real and intense sword intent gushed over. The divine arts and the sword blended together to weave out gaudy sword skills. Even if it was a horizontal slash, the lethality would be extremely great.


    Lin Xing''s hair was blown about in disarray. He held his ground and performed the Hidden Heaven Spell, easily knocking out Lu Fan''s attack.


    "It''s this move again ¡­" After the battle at Mount Desolate Mountain, Bu Tiantong had been carefully considering this move, but he had not been able to figure out the reason for it. Although this move was not one of the five paths that people were familiar with, she had a bold guess in her heart.


    That move was too ordinary and intangible, to the point that no one could understand how Lin Xing had managed to resolve it. Even Lu Fan was stunned. The long sword in his hand flashed, changing its angle to a tricky one, and he activated the endless sword intent to attack.


    "The second move." Lin Qi said in a relaxed manner.


    However, Lu Fan had a unique skill in his body, and with the lesson from last time, he had already predicted that Lu Li would have a weak point when Lu Fan tried to break the move. Lu Li''s body fell to the ground, the edge of his sword dancing in the air, not giving Lin Xing a chance to hit the ground.


    Lin Xing beckoned with his hand and Ah Shan immediately understood. He snatched the steel sword from the soldier''s hand and threw it to Lin Xing. With the steel sword in hand, he used it as a leverage to dive down. The two weapons clashed, causing sparks to fly everywhere. Lin Xing once again turned over, steadily retreating to the side like Mount Tai.


    "You''ve made great progress, you piece of trash, but I will definitely cripple you with this third move." Lu Fan''s expression was ashen, turning angry from embarrassment. With an explosive shout, a divine technique was displayed. A strange scene appeared behind him. It was a giant built out of steel, surrounded by a group of tall mountains. It did not get angry, but it still had its might.


    Everyone was fearful. This Lu Fan had really put in a lot of effort. In order to defeat Lu Fan in the third move, he did not hesitate to use a divine technique to expel all of the spiritual energy and willpower in his body.


    When the steel giant opened its eyes, a blinding light shot out from its pupils, as if it was rushing out from the void, passing through the endless mountains and rivers towards Lin Xing. Lin Qi''s expression immediately turned serious. Lu Fan became angry from embarrassment and started to take action. This was one of his trump cards.


    The tip of his finger cut through the air. No one noticed this subtle movement. The energy formed on the tip of his finger was invisible and colorless. Then, he wrapped it with his Spiritual Energy and pointed out with his finger towards the light.


    As the two attacks collided, everyone was forced to retreat. Some of them were so frightened that they almost fell out of the windows. However, the earth-shattering scene that everyone was worried about did not happen. It was like two motes of dust colliding.


    Wow!


    Even though the godly technique that Lu Fan activated had great killing power, it also had a strong side effect. Accurately speaking, it was a secret technique that one would not use unless absolutely necessary. Today, in order to embarrass Lin Ming, he was forced to use it. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale. Fang Tan went to support him before he could regain his footing.


    As for Lin Qi, he was forced to retreat to the wall before he came to a stop. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes. On the surface, he didn''t suffer much damage. The slight pain in his meridians was the result of the power of laws being broken.


    "Prince Lu, the disciples of the Sky Ascension Sect are truly powerful. I''ve finally experienced it today." Lin Xing suppressed the pain within his body and chuckled.


    His face was full of shame and shame, and he was simply ashamed. A dignified disciple of the Skysplit Sect was actually defeated by a piece of trash, there was no reason for that!


    As he thought about it, he still wasn''t able to see even the tiniest bit of Lin Xing''s technique. He had lost in a muddle, and if he continued to fight like this, he had a feeling that he would lose.


    Naturally, there was another reason as to why he was so thoroughly defeated. The space of this restaurant was simply too narrow. If it were a battle outside, he had the confidence to defeat Lin Xing in three moves. Not only that, but there was something else that surprised him. Lin Xing had grown up too fast. This was not a good thing ¡­


    "Lin Xing, don''t be too complacent. You are the one who killed my sister. Our Prime Minister will definitely take revenge on her sooner or later." The country''s leader will also act on behalf of our Prime Minister''s side. "


    Lin Xing asked, "Do you have evidence? The two brothers and sisters of your country''s Prime Minister Palace have done many evil deeds. They have many enemies, so what evidence do you have to believe that I killed them? "


    "You ¡­" Fang Tan gasped for breath.


    "Wait until you have evidence." Lin Xing turned around and led Bu Tiantong, Ah Shan and the other soldiers down the stairs.

    Outside the city, Lin Xing and Bu Tiantong were walking side by side with Ah Shan and a group of soldiers three meters behind them.


    The atmosphere was a bit tense. Ever since they left the restaurant, there had been no further discussions between them. They just quietly walked around.


    Lin Qi admired the scenery and buildings along the way, and his expression changed slightly from time to time. He completely treated Bu Tiantong as transparent and never took the initiative to open his mouth.


    "You''ve already left the city. Don''t you want to go back?" At this point, Bu Tiantong could no longer suppress his temper.


    "No rush, I''ll send you off again." Lin Xing''s face was expressionless, and his eyes darted around the room, never landing on Bu Tiantong. His tone was extremely moving, and he thought that Bu Tiantong was very close to him.


    Bu Tiantong stopped and turned around to look at him. With an unfriendly tone, he said, "I''ve already sent them far enough. "I know that Young Master Lin has taken over the general''s estate and is busy picking up loot to send me off. I am truly deeply grateful for that, so I ask you to go back. It would be better if I walked the rest of the way myself."


    She tried her best to be tactful, but the last sentence became very cold.


    "I''m busy right now. "He''s busy with the affairs of the General''s Estate." Lin Xing said.


    "Heh." Bu Tiantong sneered. He could not figure out what was going on in his gourd.


    Lin Qi turned around and looked straight at her. He then took out something from his chest, placed it on his palm and held it in front of her face.


    This was a leaf with a grayish-black appearance. However, the material used to make this leaf was iron. It flickered with a metallic luster, and its two sides were like gears. It was also as sharp as a blade. The whole thing was so clear that even the tiniest of lines could be seen.


    Upon seeing this leaf, Bu Tiantong immediately understood what was going on. He coldly smiled and said, "After arranging an entire day, in the end, you''re just thinking of capturing my Black Wind Mountain''s withering thunder leaf?"


    "That''s right. I''ve come to find you precisely for the withering thunder leaf." Lin Xing said.


    "I''m afraid I''ll have to disappoint you. The Fang Clan has been selling the Withered Leaf the entire time. If you want to buy them, you can go buy them." Bu Tiantong mocked.


    Lin Qi blinked and said, "But I prefer to take it from you." I heard that the leaf you sold to the Prime Minister''s Palace was worth two Spirit Crystals. If you guys were willing to sell it to me, I''m willing to pay five Spirit Crystals. "


    As he spoke, he pinched the leaf with two fingers. This small leaf was worth more than spirit crystals, and weapons made from it were even harder than steel blades. It was very suitable for military use.


    However, Bu Tiantong did not seem to be moved at all. On the contrary, he disdainfully said, "Our Fang family and our business have always been working together to advance, working together. This is not something that can be measured by money at all. "


    "Oh? "You mean that no matter how much you bid, you would never be able to cooperate with my General''s House?" Lin Xing asked.


    "That''s right." Bu Tiantong sneered.


    "Humph, if you refuse a toast, you will be punished. Young master, if she doesn''t agree, then we will capture her and sell her cultivation base to the brothel." Ashan showed his true nature again, his evil face.


    "You dare ¡­" Bu Tiantong''s face turned cold. His eyes started to tremble as he mocked, "But just with trash like you, if I want to leave, do you think I can stop me?"


    "Then let''s give it a try ¡­" Before Ashan could say anything, he was glared back at by Lin Xing, who then swallowed his words back down his throat.


    Lin Qi slowed down his tone and said with a laugh, "Miss Bu, please blame me for not being good with discipline. Don''t let your body go bad because of this."


    Bu Tiantong''s expression was not good. It seemed that Lin Xing was apologizing. In fact, it was simply a threat. It was evident that there were hidden meanings in his words. Ashan''s earlier words were spoken with his tacit approval. Otherwise, he would have been able to interrupt Ashan''s words earlier. But he didn''t. This proved that if she didn''t agree, Lin Xing really might use force.


    Lin Xing continued, "I''m sure you know that Fang Tan bought all the leaves and sold them to the Deities Templar''s subordinate states, and you, yourself, are like fire and water. You don''t want to see this kind of business situation, do you?"


    "Yes, I have no objection to what you have said. But since you said it in such a righteous manner, if you were to directly buy the withering thunder leaf from me, isn''t it to sell it to other kingdoms for money? "


    "I, of course I''m not. "I can promise you that I won''t sell the leaf to any other nation in the territory of the Skypalace Sect other than the Azure Silver Nation." A bold idea suddenly emerged in Lin Qi''s mind.


    "Is that true?" Bu Tiantong was moved and asked in surprise.


    Ah Shan and the rest were also shocked. Young Master''s words were like cutting off their own path of retreat. Even if they bought the leaf from Black Wind Mountain at a low price, where else could they go to earn money if they didn''t sell it? Are they all left in a pile at the General''s Estate to rot?


    "Seriously." Lin Xing said in a serious tone.


    "In that case, I promise you. But right now, you have only passed my test. Lei Ku Ye is an extremely important person and I have no right to decide about this matter. If you have the guts, come with me to Black Wind Mountain and personally convince that person. " Bu Tiantong stuck out his chest and said.


    "Alright." Lin Qi did not hesitate at all. As the saying goes, wealth comes from risk. He had to put everything on the line.


    "Young master, you can''t." Ah Shan turned pale with fright. Not only in the Azure Silver Country, but even in the entire Heavenly Sect territory, Black Wind Mountain was an infamous forbidden area. Those living there were all cultivators who were known for their ruthlessness and ruthlessness.


    "Don''t try to persuade me. Ah Shan, you guys go back. I will go with her alone." Lin Xing turned around and said.


    Ashan opened his mouth wide again. He truly admired his young master''s courage. To be able to face him alone, how could he be so calm and collected? In the end, he let out a helpless sigh and walked back to the city gate under Lin Xing''s orders.


    Before he left, Lin Xing handed over the matters of the General''s Estate to Ah Shan to take care of. Everything was going on as usual. If there were any important or unmanageable matters, he could consult Gu Yuan.


    Then, Lin Qi nodded to Bu Tiantong. The latter''s eyes quivered and she was the first to walk up ahead.


    Looking at her back, Lin Xing felt a little awkward. Even though Bu Tiantong was in her thirties, she had a graceful figure and an extremely graceful bearing. She had a mature charm to her as she walked. After calming down a little, she also quickly followed.


    Black Wind Mountain was about eight hundred miles away from the capital. With their physical strength and speed, it would only take four hours for them to get there.


    On the way, Lin Xing couldn''t help but ask, "Can you tell me what exactly happened to you in the Dancing Sky Sect? And why was he kicked out of the sect? "


    The moment those words were spoken, it was clear to see that Bu Tiantong''s expression had changed. He was filled with regret, anger, and even more so, a deathly pale expression ¡­


    "Qilong." The word came out of his throat with great difficulty. Without saying anything else, he quickened his pace.


    "Qilong ¡­"


    Lin Qi was dazed, and his face was filled with a dazed expression.


    If his guess was not wrong, the strange dragon that was mentioned by Bu Tiantong was most likely the youngest elder of the Heaven Ascension Sect. That person was not a simple person. His reputation was already widespread when he was young, and there was no one in the Skypiercing Sect who didn''t know about him. He was already selected as an elder at the age of thirty, and this was unprecedented in the Skypiercing Sect.


    From Bu Tiantong''s rapid breathing and pale complexion, it seemed that these two must have had a bad fate back then ¡­

 C22

    Black Wind Mountain, the number one forbidden area of the Kingdom of Green Silver, was enveloped in a black fog all year round. This small mountain had a total area of less than a hundred miles, yet it was filled with a large number of Nether Sect experts and notorious criminals from all over the country.


    This mountain was only eight hundred miles away from the capital and was a serious threat to the safety of the capital. Therefore, the king had sent a large number of troops to station outside the Black Wind Mountain all year round to guard against any movements from the Black Wind Mountain.


    At this moment, Lin Xing and Bu Tiantong had arrived at the outskirts of Black Wind Mountain. As Lin Xing gazed forward, the Yin energy in the valley was incomparably powerful.


    To his left was a military camp, and he could see quite a few armored soldiers moving about, but what surprised him was that there were also many women entering and exiting the camp.


    Most of the women were dressed up beautifully, with thick makeup on their faces. However, there were also many women with hidden bitterness in their eyes. Their expressions showed that they were struggling as they were carried by the soldiers into a tent.


    "Those women are soldiers, is this how your General''s Estate operates? Forcing the good to be a prostitute and forcibly abducting and selling. I don''t know how many women have been harmed in the nearby villages. " Bu Tiantong''s gaze was cold and her killing intent surged. She was also a woman, but she sympathized with those women.


    In the past, he had cultivated in the Heavenly Ascension Sect all year round, so he didn''t know much about the underhanded rules of the Azure Silver Country. If he hadn''t personally witnessed it, he really wouldn''t have known about this.


    "One day, if I hold the power, I will abolish the army." Lin Xing said with a serious expression.


    "If that''s the case, I''ll thank you on behalf of those girls." Bu Tiantong thanked him from the bottom of her heart. She could tell that her heart was also very kind.


    "Help ¡­"


    Suddenly, a woman''s cry for help could be heard. When she looked over, she saw a pretty girl running for her life. Her hair was in disarray, and most of her clothes were torn, revealing a large portion of her snow-white skin.


    Behind her were two more armored soldiers chasing her. She was a mortal, so before she could run twice, she fell to the ground. One of her shoes fell off, and the two soldiers rushed over in the blink of an eye.


    The woman''s face was filled with despair and fear. She tried to get up and run, but was pushed to the ground by a soldier.


    Puff ¡­


    In the next moment, like a kite with its string cut, it flew out and continuously rolled seven or eight times on the ground. Moreover, it was an extremely ferocious attack on its assailant; even two of its ribs were broken, and it vomited out a mouthful of blood.


    The one who had attacked just now was Lin Xing. Bu Tiantong had originally planned to teach the two soldiers a lesson, but he was stopped by Lin Xing.


    First, her status was special, she belonged to Black Wind Mountain. If they couldn''t handle her properly, the relationship between both sides would immediately turn rigid.


    Secondly, this was Lin Xing''s family matter after all. He did not care, but who would care?


    Although these two soldiers were under Lin Shen''s command, Lin Xing did not show the slightest bit of mercy. These two punches would definitely allow the two of them to rest for a month.


    "You two from Black Wind Mountain dare to attack us openly? Are you planning to start a war with our Azure Silver Country?" The two soldiers covered their chests and struggled to get up. Blood flowed out of their mouths at the same time. Their expressions were painful, but they still threatened in unison.


    They knew that the woman and the youth in front of them had very deep cultivations, so they were definitely not their match. However, this was, after all, the entrance to the military camp, so they had nothing to fear.


    As for the woman, when she saw Lin Qi and Bu Tiantong, she seemed to grasp onto a ray of light and ran towards them, disregarding her sorry state.


    "Please clarify this, I am not someone from Black Wind Mountain, and if you do not agree, I do not mind punching you twice more. "Then, report your general''s name." Lin Qi said in a cold tone.


    Hearing this, the two soldiers looked frightened, and they subconsciously retreated two steps. This young man was not simple, at the very least, he had the strength of the peak of the Deity Realm. If he were to send two more punches over, they would most likely die here.


    "Our general is Gu Yuan. Hmph, you must have heard of him. Do you dare to provoke him?" When the two soldiers mentioned the name Gu Yuan, they unexpectedly became a lot more forceful for a moment.


    Gu Yuan''s notoriety had recently flourished and he''d single-handedly killed many experts who''d come to the General''s Estate to cause trouble. This had caused a huge stir in the entire Azure Silver Kingdom. They were certain that once Gu Yuan''s name was announced, the teenager and the woman in front of them would feel slightly more fear.


    However, the truth was completely out of their expectations. The woman''s expression did not change at all. The youth was somewhat surprised, but it was clear that it was not fear.


    Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that this was an army under Gu Yuan''s command. However, after thinking for a bit, he realized that Gu Yuan wholeheartedly desired the Immortal God Great Dao and had always been lazy to ask about political affairs. From the fact that Gu Yuan spent his days in his own room, he could see this point.


    Your people? You don''t care, I''ll help you.


    "I have something on me right now, so I''ll deal with you guys later. You guys just go back to the barracks and tell the generals that you need to be mentally prepared," said Lin Qi. I will visit you in a while. "


    As he said this, he stepped forward. Seeing this, the two soldiers panicked. They turned around and ran, afraid that Lin Xing would punch them again.


    "Thank you, my two benefactors. Even if I were to work like an ox or a horse, I would have no way of repaying them." The woman who was saved kneeled on the ground and thanked him gratefully.


    Lin Qi quickly took her arm and helped her up. "You''re welcome. Since we''ve run into each other, I will not ignore it." Now that you''re safe, go home. "


    The woman revealed a bitter expression and softly said, "But I don''t have a home anymore."


    "No more homes?" Lin Xing muttered.


    The woman pleaded, "Two years ago, all my family died in a plague. Now, I am all alone. Can my two benefactors accept me? "


    "Follow me, I''ll arrange a good place for you to stay at Black Wind Mountain." As a woman, Bu Tiantong''s heart was moved.


    "This won''t do. Black Wind Mountain is as cunning as a tiger, everyone is famous for their ruthlessness and ruthlessness. How could a weak girl be fit to go to that kind of place? You should go to the General''s Estate." Lin Xing did not agree.


    Bu Tiantong was livid and did not have the strength to refute.


    "Go to the General''s Estate and find a person called Ah Shan. He will arrange everything for you. Tell him it was I, Lin Xing, who introduced you."


    "Lin Xing ¡­" The woman nodded her head in agreement. Then, following the direction that Lin Qi had pointed to, she thanked him profusely once more. She was reluctant to part with him again and again as she walked towards the capital city.

 C23

    Along the way, Lin Qi saw many bloody scenes. Each of them held a sword in their hand, and they started fighting the moment they heard the word "fight". Killing people on the street was like a common occurrence, and corpses were everywhere, but no one came to stop or clean them up.


    It could only be summarized with a single word.


    Walking on the street, there were rows of dark, tiled buildings on both sides of the street. The people beside them had cold expressions on their faces. Their eyes were filled with hostility as they stared at Lin Xing and Bu Tiantong.


    This place was filled with killing intent, and to the cultivators, it was a land of Feng Shui, and the people that lived here were all from the underworld, while the underworld was famous for being ruthless and heartless.


    With a plop, an old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks fell in front of Lin Qi and Bu Tiantong without any warning.


    This old man''s face was black, his hair was disheveled, and his entire body was emitting a terrible stench. The moment he appeared, he was lying down in front of Lin Qi.


    Bu Tiantong had a helpless expression. However, she was already used to this kind of situation. Her expression did not change much and a cold light flashed through her eyes.


    Lin Xing, on the other hand, was baffled by the old man''s actions and couldn''t help but frown. On the two sides of the street, the Nether Limitless started sneering. This was going to be a good show.


    This time, he came to Black Wind Mountain for the withering thunder leaves. Lin Xing did not want to cause any trouble, so he walked towards the left.


    "Brat, you injured me, yet you still dare to leave? If you don''t leave something behind today, I won''t let you die!" Who knew that the old man would actually hug Lin Qi''s thigh, refusing to let him go no matter what.


    Lin Qi instantly understood. So this old man was unfamiliar with him, and had lied to him.


    He took out a dagger from his waist. It was pitch black with a cold glint. This was a underworld weapon that he and Ah Shan had stolen from him. This dagger was extremely sharp and could cut through metal like mud.


    He said in a deep voice, "This underworld artifact is worth at least two hundred spirit crystals. I wonder if it will be enough for your medical expenses."


    When the old man saw the dagger, his eyes immediately lit up. His body, which was still in a faint state a moment ago, suddenly became full of vigor. He quickly got up from the ground.


    "Enough, enough." The old man was overjoyed and greedy.


    "Then you have to catch it."


    As he spoke, Lin Xing threw the dagger over his head. The old man jumped up in joy and grabbed the dagger, but before he could even touch a corner of the dagger, his entire body was sent flying.


    Wow... With a "wow", he fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    The old man thought that Lin Xing was just a hothead, so he was caught off guard when he tried to grab the dagger. Who knew that Lin Qi would suddenly launch an attack and send him flying with a punch?


    "Brat, you''re courting death." The old man dried his blood, and a vicious look appeared in his eyes.


    Many people slowly walked over with unfriendly eyes. What kind of place was Black Wind Mountain? Coming in was easy, but going out was hard.


    "Scram ¡­" Bu Tiantong shouted loudly. The power of the peak of the advanced realm was completely released. It was like a torrent of water that spread out in all directions.


    "Nether Energy ¡­" After feeling the powerful force, everyone''s faces changed. Even the old man was extremely terrified. He quickly ran back into the tile room and closed the door, allowing the world to return to silence.


    This was a power at the same level as the God Power of the God Arts, a power that only the Dao realm warriors could have. Even though Bu Tiantong hadn''t completely stepped into it, it wasn''t far and he easily scared off this group of evil spirits.


    "You must be joking. Let''s continue on our way."


    Lin Xing had just put away his dagger when he heard Bu Tiantong''s indifferent voice. He smiled indifferently and the two of them continued walking forward.


    Before long, they arrived at a mountain. The mountain was covered with vegetation, but those vegetation were pitch-black in color and had all sorts of shapes. Some of them even had facial features. It was extremely strange and astonishing.


    There was a small path paved with stone steps in the middle of the mountain. A middle-aged man was standing at the entrance of the path. He held a blade in his hand, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. It was obvious that he had killed many people.


    He asked in a deep voice, "Junior sister, why did you bring this pretty boy here?"


    Junior Sister? Lin Qi was surprised.


    Bu Tiantong looked at the big man expressionlessly. When he heard these words, his eyes revealed impatience as he coldly said, "Senior Brother Zhu Yanghua, there''s no need to report back to you, right?"


    "I am in charge of protecting Master''s safety, do you think it''s necessary? Furthermore, he is not from our sect. Just by this alone, I can kill him here. " The burly man spoke coldly, his aura spreading out. Unexpectedly, he was a Dao Seeking expert.


    This was not half a step into Dao like Bu Tiantong, this was a complete Dao Division.


    The pressure spread out like a mountain pressing down on him, causing Lin Xing to be unable to bear the pressure. His bones unknowingly cracked, and his face became extremely unnatural.


    "Enough, Zhu Yanghua. I know what you are thinking, but don''t you go astray. I only brought him here to talk about business. " Bu Tiantong pushed away the pressure and said with a frown.


    Zhu Yanghua withdrew his aura and instantly withdrew all of his power back into his body, as if he was secretly relieved. She said, "Like I said, with Junior Sister''s character, how could she fall for this kind of trash?"


    Lin Qi''s face turned black. He was actually treating him as a love rival.


    "Hmph." Bu Tiantong turned to Lin Xing and said, "Wait for me here. I will go up to inform my master." He then warned Zhu Yanghua, "I advise you not to act recklessly, otherwise you will be blacklisted for the rest of your life."


    "Alright, since Junior said so, I won''t touch him." Zhu Yanghua said.


    Bu Tiantong secretly let out a sigh of relief and walked up the stairs.


    Just as her figure submerged in the black forest, Zhu Yanghua impatiently asked Lin Xing, "You''re just a useless trash from the Li Territory, where did you get the qualification to do business with my master? Why not tell me what your background is?"


    "A nameless member of the younger generation, how could he have such a powerful background? Senior, you have worried too much." Lin Qi replied in a lukewarm tone.


    "Hmph. You truly don''t know how to appreciate favors. I didn''t touch you completely out of respect for my junior sister, or else you could be considered to have an enormous background. If you anger me, I will still kill you without any hesitation." Zhu Yanghua said in a deep voice.


    Lin Qi felt a headache coming on. The people of Black Wind Mountain really did live up to their reputation. Every time they tried to kill someone ¡­


    He was unhappy in his heart, but he did not dare to show it in front of a Dao Dividing Stage expert. He calmly said, "Then, many thanks to Senior for not killing me."


    On the surface, it sounded like thanks, but anyone could hear the sarcastic tone in his voice. When Zhu Yanghua heard this, he became even more furious. If not for the words that he had said first, he really would have killed Lin Xing Ge here.


    "What business did you come here to discuss?" he asked calmly.


    Lin Qi was speechless. Zhu Yanghua''s curiosity was still so strong. He replied, "A small business, not worth mentioning."


    "Why would this small business alarm Master? You aren''t here for the withering thunder leaves are you?" When Zhu Yanghua saw Lin Xing''s expression and tone, the rage in his heart was unable to be quelled. He suppressed his anger and asked.


    The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched, but he did not answer.


    Seeing this, Zhu Yanghua suddenly understood and said, "So it was really because of the Thunder Withering Leaf, it seems that the Fang family''s trash have never fought with you before, but you can actually persuade my junior. Do you know why my Black Wind Mountain''s Thunder Withered Leaf was monopolized by the Fang family?"


    "Because you are here." Lin Qi shifted his gaze and his heart froze for a moment.


    "Not bad, looks like you''re a bit smart. In the past, even if Fang Tan sold the Withered Leaf, I would still get 20% of it. But now that you''ve taken it, I want 30%." Zhu Yanghua''s words were shocking.


    This sentence entered Lin Xing''s ears as his mind buzzed. What a f * cking big mouth this was. I don''t even know how much money I could earn myself. He decisively refused, "Impossible, not even ten percent is possible."


    "Hmm?" Zhu Yanghua paused for a moment, then furiously said with killing intent, "I think you don''t want to live anymore. Since you don''t want to, your corpse will forever be left here at Black Wind Mountain."


    At the same time, the two-meter-long blade in his hand was raised high above Lin Qi''s head.

 C24

    The Qi field of the Dao Division was like a mountain, incomparably ferocious. When it was released, it immediately swept towards Lin Xing. The wisps of nether energy were like the purest elemental energy extracted from the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood, and they were incomparably poisonous.


    Just as Mo Dao was about to raise his blade, Zhu Yanghua bellowed and raised his hand.


    Lin Qi''s eyes widened as he channeled all the spiritual energy in his body and gathered it in the center of his palms, intending to block the blade with his bare hands.


    "Stop."


    At this critical moment, Bu Tiantong''s body came out of the black forest. Zhu Yanghua''s hand that was holding onto the saber paused slightly. Seeing this, Lin Xing hastily took three steps back to dodge to the side.


    "Zhu Yanghua, you''ve gone too far. I''ve warned you again and again, but you still refuse to listen. Do you really think that I have a good temper?" Bu Tiantong ran down the stairs and stood in front of Zhu Yanghua, questioning him in a low voice.


    Zhu Yanghua kept his saber and laughed out loud. He stared at Lin Xing and said, "I saw that he had extraordinary bones, so I wanted to spar with him. Who knew that just as I was about to make a move, I was met by junior sister."


    "Really?" Bu Tiantong naturally could not believe it. His gaze shifted to Lin Xing.


    Under Zhu Yanghua''s threatening gaze, Lin Xing dryly laughed and explained, "Yes, I also want Senior Zhu to teach me a few defensive techniques. It seems that Miss Bu has misunderstood."


    "Heh ¡­" Bu Tiantong sneered.


    Zhu Yanghua heaved a sigh of relief. This young man had good eyesight, but the killing intent in his heart continued to grow. It was filled with jealousy. Bu Tiantong''s concern for Lin Xing seemed to be a little too much, causing him to be jealous.


    "Let''s get back to the main topic. My master would advise you to go up alone. He will discuss the withering thunder leaves with you alone." Bu Tiantong said.


    "Thank you, Miss Bu." Lin Xing thanked him.


    After that, Bu Tiantong''s face became serious and he said, "You probably don''t know yet, Senior Brother Zhu Yanghua and I are disciples of the Yin Master Sect and our master is also an elder of this sect. He has a weird temper, don''t be too happy too early. Whether or not I agree to it is still up to debate. "


    "Yin Master School?" Lin Xing frowned, his face full of shock.


    If he didn''t have a new name, in his mind, the Yin Master School was just a gate to the underworld sect, and its overall power was not any weaker than the Sky Sect. However, the location of the sect was one million miles away, and he was shocked that the Yin Master School could reach out to this place as well.


    From the looks of it, many of the Dark World''s people should be from the Spirit Building Sect. Furthermore, there was probably more than one expert living here: Master Bu Tiantong.


    Withdrawing his thoughts, Lin Xing climbed up the stairs. Behind him, there were two pairs of eyes that were filled with killing intent staring at him, causing him to feel a chill down his spine. He didn''t need to guess to know that those eyes belonged to Zhu Yanghua.


    Looking down, the mountain top was not very high. However, Lin Xing walked along the stairs and did not reach the end even after an incense''s time, not to mention the fact that he did not see a single person.


    His steps were like flying steps. In just two or three steps, he was already more than ten meters away. He was shuttling through the black forest. He took seven turns and turned eight corners. He couldn''t see the end of the stone steps so he was shocked.


    After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he was still circling around the black forest. It was like a maze.


    Earlier, Bu Tiantong only used a moment to return. Now, after two incense sticks of time had passed, Lin Xing had yet to see his'' master ''. He couldn''t help but feel horrified.


    The most important thing was, with every step he took, it was as though he was treading on thin ice, and it was exceptionally difficult.


    His steps were not heavy, but it was extremely difficult for him to land. It was as if this place was rejecting him.


    "Is this a formation?" Lin Xing asked doubtfully.


    Stepping on the ground, the earth suddenly shook. The black forest on both sides started to move. Some of the plants with facial features actually opened their mouths at this moment.


    A large tree automatically pulled itself out from the ground and flew towards Lin Xing. Every single leaf on the tree was as sharp as a knife, and as it flew through the air, a piercing sound could be heard.


    "Withered Leaf ¡­"


    Lin Qi was shocked. He realized that the leaf on the tree was actually the withering thunder leaf.


    Using the Hidden Heaven Spell, he pushed the ancient tree away with a palm. Then, without looking back, he rushed to the front stairs.


    At the same time, all the black vegetation on both sides began to move. It was as if they were alive as they walked up or down. They were full of spirituality and a fishy stench filled the air.


    Lin Qi continued to cast the Hidden Heaven Spell one after another, pushing aside the vegetation on both sides as he ran. He was running as fast as he could.


    Although these plants were somewhat intelligent, they were definitely not as intelligent as humans. However, the advantage was that there were so many of them. Initially, Lin Xing was able to endure them, but later on, he gradually began to run out of steam.


    At this moment, a pavilion appeared in front of Lin Xing, which immediately roused his spirit.


    The moment his foot stepped into the pavilion, the black vegetation immediately quieted down and returned to its previous position.


    He took a glance inside the pavilion, and saw an old man floating in the air. He had a long hair, was dressed in grey, had his eyes closed, and had an extremely aged face.


    "To be able to charge up here with such ease despite the strength of a person leaving the territory, you are truly a formidable figure. Unlike that Tan, you still need me to help you, or you will die at that time." The grey-clothed old man was Bu Tiantong''s master, Wuchang. He opened his eyes and praised.


    "Greetings, senior. This junior was purely lucky." Lin Xing said in his heart.


    The grey clothed old man before him was unfathomable, and he didn''t dare slight him.


    Que Wuchang said nonchalantly, "If I''m not wrong, what you just displayed should be the Hidden Heaven Technique."


    Lin Xing knew that he had been seen through, and there was nothing much to hide. "Senior''s perception is like a torch, this junior cultivates the Hidden Heaven Dao," he replied.


    "Hidden Heavens? Hoho, you have to be careful. Eight hundred years ago, Hierarch Cang Tian swept the world and similarly provoked a lot of enemies. There were two or three in the Sky Sect. Xu Que smirked.


    "Junior will remember that." The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched. This was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing. It seemed that he would have to be more careful in the future.


    Xu Que shook his head and replied, "You don''t need to remember. I just said one more word. Besides, your life or death has nothing to do with me."


    Lin Xing had no choice but to think of Bu Tiantong''s instructions. Qu Wuchang was straightforward, and his temper was a little strange.


    "As for your purpose for coming here, I''ve heard it from Tian Tong. Since you''ve successfully barged in, I have no reason to reject you. It''s just that we still need to discuss the price." Xu Wuchang said.


    "In the past, the Fang family bought one leaf of the withering thunder leaf with two spirit crystals. I''ll give you five. Senior, what do you think?" Lin Xing said.


    "Five?" Xu Que was emotionally moved.


    He then asked with a strange expression, "I even heard Tian Tong say that you wouldn''t be selling the leaves to any of the countries under the Skypalace Sect. I''m curious, what''s the use of buying them?"


    It was no wonder why he asked this question. The Descending Heavens Sect was simply too vast, and Lin Xing obviously didn''t have the ability to sell the withering thunder leaves to other territories.


    "This... Please forgive this junior for not being able to tell. " A confident smile appeared on Lin Xing''s face.

 C25

    A thought-provoking smile appeared on his face as he said, "Young man, it looks like you''ve done something big. Although this old man can''t guess it, I can still see the boldness in your eyes. With just this, I will sell you the Thunder Withering Leaf."


    "Thank you for agreeing, senior." Lin Qi was overjoyed, and suddenly became slightly more respectful as he slightly bowed to Qu Wuchang.


    "As for the details of the purchase, you can go and discuss it with Tian Tong. Xu Que waved his hand.


    "Junior will take his leave."


    With that, Lin Qi bowed and walked down the stairs.


    "Hidden Sky ¡­" In the past, you stubbornly insisted on going with the sect and entered the Hidden Sky Sect. After two hundred years, I wonder how you are doing. " Looking at Lin Qi''s departing back view, Xu Que''s eyes became a little blurry as if he was reminiscing about something. His tone was aggrieved and full of melancholy.


    Compared to going up the mountain, it was much easier to go down the mountain. In half an hour, Lin Xing returned to the entrance.


    Bu Tiantong stood on the spot quietly waiting, while Zhu Yanghua had disappeared without a trace.


    "Where''s your Senior Brother Zhu?" Lin Qi''s vigilance increased as he asked in surprise.


    "I don''t know." Bu Tiantong shook his head. Then, he gently said, "From the looks of it, you must have succeeded in persuading my master."


    "Yes. I will have to thank Miss Bu for her help. I will give you a big gift in the future. " Lin Xing said.


    "Then I''ll wait. It''s just that you have to hurry up and leave now. I just received news that there are a lot of genius disciples in the Yin Master School that will rush to the Black Wind Mountain today. They have all heard of your fame before, but they didn''t know that you became a mortal two years ago. So you''d better not get caught. " Bu Tiantong said with a serious expression.


    Lin Qi rubbed his nose with a helpless look on his face. What did this Yin Master School disciple come a million miles here for? There must be a reason, but it was inconvenient for him to ask. Even if he asked, Bu Tiantong might not tell him.


    "On the fifth day of each month, just send someone to look for me at Black Wind Mountain with this command token. I will pass the Thunder Withered Leaf to them." Bu Tiantong took out a wooden token from his waist. There was an inscriptions on it. It was a bit blurry, but it was enough to make people remember it for the rest of their lives.


    Lin Qi carefully put away the token and thanked Bu Tiantong several times before heading out of Black Wind Mountain.


    Just as his figure disappeared from Bu Tiantong''s sight, Lin Xing immediately sped up and continued galloping forward. He had a bad premonition in his heart.


    At his current speed, it would only take him two cups of tea to make it out of the mountain. At that time, he saw the military camp from the end of his vision. It was not far from the outer perimeter.


    Right at this moment, a black shadow jumped down from a small hill and landed on the ground, blocking his way.


    It was a man around forty years old. He was tall, had bronze skin, and his muscles were squirming like a horned dragon. He had a fresh blade of grass in his mouth, and a two-meter-long blade in his left hand.


    His aura released outwards, shaking the space around him. Large amounts of nether energy flooded out like a flood; this was a genuine expert of the Dao Division realm.


    Seeing this person, Lin Zhi''s heart skipped a beat and his face fell. His eyes became a little calmer as he stared at him.


    "Kid, you stole away the Fang family''s business, and yet you refuse to give me a share of the profits? How could there be such a cheap thing in the world? I''ve said it before, your corpse will forever remain at Black Wind Mountain." Zhu Yanghua said in a deep voice. Killing Lin Xing was only a part of the reason, but it was also because of Bu Tiantong.


    "I made an agreement with Senior Que. If you kill me, how will you explain this to your Master?" Lin Qi asked indifferently. There was not much change in his expression. With all the spiritual energy in his body activated, there would be a tough battle coming up.


    Hearing that, Zhu Yanghua laughed and mocked, "You think too highly of yourself. We can do business with anyone else and sell them to anyone, do you think that you''re the only one coveting them? Furthermore, even my Master will not be able to stop the people I want to kill. "


    "You probably don''t know yet, but Miss Bu has already ¡­" Lin Qi said shyly.


    "Already what?" Zhu Yanghua frowned and asked impatiently.


    "Already ¡­"


    Lin Xing had just spat out two words, his body suddenly rushed forward, and punched towards Zhu Yanghua, creating a large sound of wind breaking.


    "Hmph, you''re courting death."


    Seeing Lin Xing suddenly attack, Zhu Yanghua''s face was filled with rage. He raised the black blade in his left hand and stopped on the ground. A huge wave of Qi spread out in all directions and he pulled out his black blade, aiming to kill Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi''s shoulder shook, dispersing the shockwave. It bounced off the surrounding trees, creating explosive crackling sounds. In the face of Zhu Yanghua''s grand blade technique, the Heaven Concealment Technique was displayed crazily, cleverly using formless techniques to resolve it.


    Each stroke was as heavy as a thunderbolt, weighing tens of thousands of pounds. As the saber cut into the ground, the earth trembled, and the leaves on the trees rustled as they fell.


    Lin Xing was unfazed by the sudden change. Every saber strike landed in front of him, and he deflected them with a single move, as though he was dismembering a mountain.


    "This is really strange."


    Even though Zhu Yanghua had the strength of a Daolord, it didn''t take long for his physical strength to completely collapse. Sweating profusely, his muscles started to ache. On the other hand, Lin Xing was carefree and at ease.


    He steeled his heart and stabbed the blade into the ground. An incomparably powerful force surged out, smashing towards Lin Qi in an earth-shattering manner.


    Wisps of black gas condensed and coalesced, forming a tight circle around him. This was all nether energy, and its offensive power was astonishing. It was as if rays of black light were being shot out.


    "Let''s see how you die this time." Zhu Yanghua looked at Lin Qi struggling to keep his body in check, and suddenly let out a cold laugh. In the next moment, his body was covered in nether energy.


    Puchi ¡­


    All of a sudden, the black nether energy that enveloped Lin Xing had sparks flying out, causing Zhu Yanghua''s sneering expression to freeze.


    Seeing the situation, he immediately shouted, "Celestial spell! It''s celestial spell!"


    A black lamp opened the way and rushed out from the surging nether energy. The black energy on both sides all retreated as if they were facing a great enemy. Those that were slightly slower were burnt to ashes by the flames on the black lamp.


    Out of the six paths, the Celestial Sect restrained the Netherworld Sect. The two paths were like fire and water, and the Celestial Sect was the sect''s nemesis. As a result, even Zhu Yanghua who was a Dao Seeking expert was unable to remain calm the instant he saw the black lamp.


    After recovering from his stupor and realizing that Lin Xing was only at the level of leaving, his expression turned blood-red. His murderous intent intensified as he flew into the fray. Mo Dao then unleashed his nether energies onto the battlefield.


    With a "pu" sound, another black lantern appeared. Two lanterns were hung on each side of Lin Xing''s body to block Zhu Yanghua''s nether energy. The middle part of his body immediately casted the Hidden Heaven Technique.


    When that blade cut down, Lin Xing was actually unable to move, and did not push him away for a moment. Zhu Yanghua coldly snorted, and with a loud shout, he increased his strength and aimed his blade at Lin Qi''s chest without holding back.


    That strike was very heavy, but Lin Xing had retreated just in time, not penetrating too deeply. Even so, it had only landed on his ribs, causing blood to gush out in a horrific manner. His eyes were like a tiger''s, he roared, and grabbed onto the blade with one hand, the other hand pushing Zhu Yanghua away. Without waiting for Zhu Yanghua to regain his footing, he used his blade to smash onto Zhu Yanghua''s forehead.

 C26

    Clang! Clang ¡­


    The sword and rod clashed against Zhu Yanghua''s head, unexpectedly producing a loud, ear-piercing sound like that of steel clashing. Although the top of his head was not cut open, blood still flowed out, causing his eyes to become slightly blurry.


    "Good, good. I swear I will make you wish you were dead. "


    Zhu Yanghua angrily roared, his face was covered in blood, causing his expression to turn incomparably sinister. His tone of voice sounded extremely tyrannical.


    A Dao Division expert had been forced to such an extent by his cultivation? This was simply unheard-of. This was not only a matter of face, Lin Xing was simply too heaven defying. If he could not kill him today, releasing the tiger would be even more difficult in the future.


    If it was anyone else, perhaps they would have already been scared to death by Zhu Yanghua''s fiendish look, but Lin Xing did not, not to mention now that the fight had reached this stage, it was either you or I who died, whoever backed off would die faster.


    Mo Dao was now in Lin Xing''s hands. If he said it was too late, he would take advantage of the moment when Zhu Yanghua was injured to turn around and use a move to sweep away thousands of enemies.


    Zhu Yanghua was caught off guard and had no time to dodge. He could only use his nether energy to block as a series of sparks flew in all directions. After that, Lin Xing chopped out another blade strike. Without waiting to see what happened next, he turned around and ran.


    Before he left, he didn''t forget to take Mo Dao with him.


    As the netherworld spiritual energy dispersed, Zhu Yanghua''s silhouette could be seen clearly. At this time, Lin Xing had already submerged himself within the forest, and immediately roared out towards the sky.


    "If I don''t kill you, I will never reach the Heaven Smiting stage."


    Zhu Yanghua swore with his dao heart that he and Lin Xing were already at a point where they were unable to tolerate each other. In the future, only one of the two of them would be able to live under this sky.


    The scene switched to Lin Xing, only to see him struggling through the woods with a saber in his hand. His face was pale, blood spewed from his mouth, his chest was exposed, and blood was dripping all over the place.


    This time, his injuries were truly too severe. In the past eighteen years, this was the most he had suffered.


    His breathing became more and more hurried. In the end, he slowly panted, and not long after, his breathing became like a thread once again. His face was completely devoid of blood, and it reverberated with his struggle and pain.


    He looked around and, seeing that there was no one around, he quickly sat down with his back against an ancient tree. He took out a bunch of elixirs from his bosom and stuffed them into his mouth.


    Before coming to Black Wind Mountain, he had already predicted that this business wouldn''t go smoothly. He had prepared a large number of elixirs beforehand, and now they were finally of use.


    As the spirit medicines entered his stomach, his breathing finally stabilized, and the blood in his chest stopped flowing. His wounds were slowly healing, and even with his mental fortitude, he sucked in a breath of cold air when he observed his injuries.


    "Hmm?"


    When he raised his head again, he discovered a figure sitting not far from him. The figure had his back facing him and wore a straw hat. His back was ancient, and he was sitting on a huge rock.


    "We meet again. What a coincidence. It seems that we are fated to meet again. Let me help you out." A black tree branch was stuck into the ground in front of him. As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible force burrowed out from the ground and rushed into Lin Qi''s mind.


    The surge of energy rushed into Lin Qi''s body, and his mind instantly rumbled as a majestic force began to emanate from within. To his delight, although this force was immense, it was gentle and did not seem overbearing at all.


    As the strength spread, the wound on his chest actually healed up at a speed visible to the naked eye. The flesh and blood were reborn, and they were tightly intertwined. In just the blink of an eye, it was completely healed.


    His body seemed to be brimming with vigor and vitality as he stood up, brimming with vitality.


    Soon after, his brows furrowed as he realized that even after recovering from his injuries, he had not used up most of the energy in his body. Amidst his ecstasy, he hurriedly sat down and refined it.


    After two incense sticks of time passed, he opened his eyes and a trace of black power appeared at the tip of his finger. He pointed at a nearby flower and the flower immediately withered before disappearing.


    "This ¡­"


    He was shocked that the refined spiritual energy had such great power. It instantly destroyed all the life from a flower and instantly died in its old age.


    "Death God Power, this is something rarely seen. Little fellow, do you have some sort of secret on you? " The voice of the man sitting on the rock came from the front.


    Lin Xing frowned as he walked up. He was clearly aware of this person''s appearance, and his expression was visibly moved.


    Wasn''t this the mysterious old man that appeared on the river when he was being chased down by Bu Tiantong and Fang Jing?


    He knew that the old man wasn''t simple and respectfully replied, "Thank you for saving my life twice. With senior''s intelligence, even if I have secrets, I''m afraid I won''t be able to escape your notice."


    In fact, when he was refining that surge of power, it had all been tempered by the golden mace in his sea of consciousness, which was why something strange had occurred.


    The old man smiled in a nonchalant manner. Saving Lin Xing was as easy as lifting a finger. He raised his eyes to look at Lin Qi, as if he wanted to see through his heart. In the end, he shook his head.


    "Senior saved my life twice, may I ask for your name?" Lin Xing said respectfully.


    "I hate it." The old man only responded with a single word, and a look of reminiscence appeared in his eyes, as if he didn''t want to say anything further.


    Seeing this expression, Lin Xing changed the topic and asked, "May I ask what was that thing that Senior instigated into my body?"


    "Oh, that. I was drawing some of the death aura here, and seeing that you were injured, I gave you some. It''s just that even I did not expect you to use this death aura to refine out the Death God Power. " The old man''s eyes glittered.


    Lin Qi was surprised, he did not know what the Death God Force was, but seeing how serious the old man was, he guessed that it was something extraordinary, and from the experiments just now, he had already experienced the terrifying power of Death God Force.


    Staring at the old man, he was extremely shocked. The divine origin energy that he had just extracted from the Heaven Sect was not finished yet, and now he had come to draw the death aura from the Black Wind Mountain? This old man''s ability and courage were comparable to ordinary people.


    If he was discovered, how many people would chase after his ass!?


    "Enough, don''t disturb my quiet cultivation." If fate wills it, we will meet again. " The old man gave the order to leave.


    Lin Qi nodded his head and saluted. Then, he tactfully moved away.


    After recovering from his injuries, he was in good spirits and did not feel the slightest bit tired. He rushed all the way back to the general''s manor after two hours.


    The moment he entered the general''s manor, he revealed a surprised expression. He saw that there was a sea of people gathered in front of the general''s manor. Most of them were young people, and most of them were descendants of big families. This could be seen from the clothes they wore, and there were also a lot of young people who were strong and didn''t seem like citizens of the Kingdom of Qingyin.


    The scene was extremely noisy, and from time to time, there would be people shouting and crying out in alarm.


    It took Lin Xing a long time to squeeze in. At this moment, Ah Shan was standing at the door with a group of soldiers, blocking the people outside.


    Seeing Lin Xing''s facial features, he was wild with joy, "Young master, you''re back! This is great! If you don''t come back soon, I won''t be able to last much longer!"


    As he said that, he actually started crying. It seemed like he had been feeling wronged for the past two days. His forehead had turned dark and his face was full of worry.


    "What''s going on with these people?" Lin Qi stepped forward, his face was covered with sweat. He had just left home not long ago, yet he had already turned into such a mess ¡­


    "Halt, no one is allowed to enter this mansion." At the door, aside from a group of guards, there was actually a young man standing there as well, blocking Lin Xing''s path.


    Lin Ming''s body trembled as he looked at Bu Tiantong. This person''s lips were thick and his facial features were good. The key was that this person was at the peak of the Acupoint Charging Realm. He was no weaker than Bu Tiantong.


    "Get out of the way, this is my master." Ashan said angrily.


    The man''s mouth twitched, and said in surprise: "Your master? "Alright, you can go in."


    Lin Qi''s face darkened. This is my house, alright? Since when did it have to be your turn to give out orders? With a gloomy face, he said to Ashan, "Ashan, come to my room and talk."


    "Yes."


    As the two of them entered the room, Lin Xing sat gloomily on a bench, his eyes cold.


    He asked, "Can you explain what happened clearly?"


    "Young Master, don''t mention it, not even an hour after you went to Black Wind Mountain, a group of uninvited guests came to our capital. The person leading is said to be a fairy from a big immortal sect, and I heard that she came here on a mortal trip to hell, so wherever she goes, she would follow a large group of young elites who admire her, willingly acting as her escort. However, she has set her sights on our General''s Estate and intends to stay here for a few days. It''s fine if she comes to stay, but a large group of people are crowding around our General''s Estate, there''s no way to stop them. " Ashan explained with a bitter face.


    "Immortal?" Dividing Dao Realm? " Lin Qi''s heart tightened and his expression changed.


    Ah Shan replied, "That''s right. That woman''s face was covered by a veil, but her beauty, charm, and charm was something that I couldn''t even imagine in my dreams. Young Master Gu Yuan had also broken through to the Dao Division and repelled many people. However, there were too many people, so there was nothing he could do. Many of the rooms have been divided up, and only one servant''s room is left. Many people live in one room for now, and I have to risk my life to protect your room, young master. "


    Gu Yuan breaking through to the Dao Division was something that would happen sooner or later. It didn''t surprise Lin Qi at all. The key point was that with so many people coming to the General''s Estate, it was a troublesome matter.


    Since they want to stay in my general''s mansion, how can I not let them. Ah Shan, you go and put up a notice at the door saying that everyone who wants to stay in my general''s mansion must pay five hundred spirit crystals as the room fee. Those who have already come in must pay the fee as well. Lin Qi said coldly.


    "Ah ¡­" Young Master, this method is too extreme, what if they get angry from embarrassment? " Ashan was shocked.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth rose in a self-confident smile. "From what you said just now, they are all infatuated with that fairy. If that''s the case, you just need to get rid of that fairy."

 C27

    Before Ah Shan left, Lin Xing handed the plate given by Bu Tiantong to him and told him that it was the fifth day of the month.


    The ruckus within and outside the general''s mansion continued without end. Lin Xing closed the door to his room and laid down on his bed to rest. He only woke up after it was dark and he had a hazy sleep.


    After obtaining the Death God''s power, his cultivation had increased a bit, and he had stepped into the peak of the Deity''s Realm. After that fairy had arrived, the Azure Silver Country''s situation had become more complicated, and he needed to increase his strength as soon as possible.


    Divine force was a characteristic of the Dao separation stage. The only reason he had this power was because of the transformation of his trump card. Although it was a destructive power, it did not raise his cultivation by much. Therefore, he still needed to refine the spirit crystal.


    He inhaled with all his might and a milky white light that could be seen with the naked eye seeped out of a pile of spirit crystals and entered his body through the pores of his body.


    Following that, the whole mace automatically ran into it, and with a slight tremble, it rushed out from the other side. The Spiritual Energy coming out from the mace was extremely pure, without any impurities.


    Circulating within Lin Ming''s body, he didn''t even need to refine the spiritual energy anymore. He could just directly absorb it.


    The spirit crystals in the room piled up like a mountain, but Lin Xing was immersed in the dark space of the mace. This was the world that Hierarch Cang Tian had once possessed, and there were rules within it.


    After cultivating for an entire night, when the sun rose, he had unquestionably advanced to the Fusion Realm. Feeling the thick energy within his body, a look of joy appeared on his face.


    All the Spirit Crystals in the room turned to dust after the Spirit Crystal was lost.


    Opening the door, he saw a large group of unfamiliar faces walking back and forth in the manor. The guards of the manor were no longer in use. It seemed like the manor had changed hands.


    Lin Xing then inquired about the location of the fairy''s room. There was a large crowd of people standing in front of the door, as well as several people who acted as escort. He stood there proudly, not allowing anyone to approach him.


    Ashan was bargaining with a group of people in front of the door, his face turning red.


    "Five hundred spirit crystals, this is my young master''s order, not one bit less." With a domineering expression, Ah Shan came to ask for the room fee as per Lin Xing''s order.


    "Five hundred spirit crystals, do you want to kill someone?"


    "A mere mansion, if it was before, I wouldn''t even have the qualifications to take it. Yet, you still dare to ask me for money, are you tired of living?"


    A fairy''s escort was not an ordinary person. They were all disciples of large sects or princes of kingdoms. Even with Lu Fan''s status, he didn''t have the qualifications to touch them. It was simply an honor for them to be able to live in the residence of a small country general. They never would have thought that their mansion''s master would be so ungrateful to them, even daring to charge a fee.


    "If you are not willing to stay, then immediately scram. I will not stop you. If you are willing to stay, then hand over the Spirit Crystal. My general''s mansion will definitely treat you well." The faint voice of a youth sounded.


    "Young master ¡­" Seeing Lin Qi, Ah Shan was immediately overjoyed. His eyebrows turned black and he was overwhelmed with anxiety.


    Lin Qi lightly nodded his head and pressed his hand down, indicating that he did not need to be afraid. Everything was under his control.


    "Kid, are you seeking death? No one in my country would dare speak to me like that. " A person shouted in anger.


    Lin Qi glanced at that person and then looked around everyone''s face. He noticed that there were two or three people standing closest to the door with the strength of a Daolord. Their auras were as terrifying as a wild beast''s, and no one dared to approach them.


    He said slowly, "Your country? I''m sorry, but please understand that this is not your territory and everything here is up to me. If you don''t want to, you can go back. "


    The moment these words were spoken, an uproar broke out. Everyone''s faces immediately darkened. This young man was merely at the level of the Unity realm. Where did he get the confidence to spout such arrogant words?


    "Listen to you? "That will depend on whether or not you are qualified."


    The person who had spoken earlier raised his eyebrows, and suddenly charged towards Lin Xing. The peak of the combined realm''s cultivation was leaked out, and endless spiritual energy surged up.


    However, just as his body approached Lin Qi, before he could even make contact with him, he was sent flying by Lin Xing.


    That technique was extremely strange. There were no traces of it that could be traced. Many people did not even see clearly what happened and that person was actually defeated.


    Even the faces of the three Dao Seeking experts changed as they stared fixedly at Lin Qi.


    Everyone was stunned by Lin Xing''s strength. Previously, Gu Yuan had been on the losing end against two Dao Division experts, but now another youth had appeared, defeating someone at the peak of the Northern Conclave Realm in one move. This tiny general''s manor was actually a place where crouching tigers and hidden dragons were hidden.


    Forgive their blindness, I didn''t realize it previously.


    At this moment, a young man with a jade-like countenance walked up to Lin Xing''s side. He was skinny, and his eyes were sharp like a sword. He was extremely cold, and was a genuine expert in the Dao Division.


    He said in a deep voice, "Scram right away. If you disturb my rest, I won''t forgive you."


    "Ha?" Lin Xing laughed, and then his gaze turned serious as he said, "This is my home, the one who should be scampered away is you. Of course, as long as you hand over the room fees, I will leave immediately."


    "It seems that I will have to teach you a lesson. Today, I will let you know what it means to have a vast world."


    The jade-faced youth looked angry. His skin immediately began to emit a bluish-blue glow. A terrifying energy began to spread around him, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.


    "Body Severing Cultivator ¡­" Lin Qi was visibly moved. This person actually cultivated the Absolute Body Branch, and he already knew the origins of this person.


    There was only one Giant Spirit Sect nearby that cultivated the body. If he wasn''t wrong, then this person should be a disciple of the Giant Spirit Sect. However, the Giant Spirit Sect and the Skysplit Sect were at the frontlines of the battle, yet he still dared to run here. It seemed like he had nothing to be afraid of.


    A tyrannical power took shape around him. The internal spiritual energy was low to the point where one couldn''t hear it, but the airflow was extremely fierce. It came crushing down on Lin Qi from the air.


    Squeak...


    Just at this moment, the door opened. The young man frowned, waved his sleeves, and withdrew his strength.


    At the same time, Lin Xing dispersed his Death God Power, but he also did not fire it. Everyone''s gaze moved towards the door.


    A woman in white slowly walked out of the room. She had long hair that fluttered in the wind. Her body was snow-white without a speck of dust on it. She was tall and had long legs. Her face was covered by a layer of white gauze.


    It was clearly very close to you, yet it gave off a feeling of being unreachable. Even though one could not see its face clearly, one could imagine its beautiful appearance.


    "Toll? This is the first time I''ve heard of it. "


    The woman in white looked at Lin Qi with astonishment in her agate eyes. Wherever she went, the stars would follow her and it was too late for others to welcome her. Today was my first time meeting someone who wanted to collect room fees from me.


    "Fairy, sorry for disturbing your rest. I will chase him out."


    Everyone looked at the white-clothed woman with fiery gazes. The jade-like youth took the lead and stepped forward.


    The woman in white waved her hand and said in an extremely empty voice, "Thank you, Senior Brother He Chen, for protecting me. Since we are living in his territory, it would not be right for us to not take out some Spirit Crystals."


    As she spoke, she waved her hand, and a blue porcelain bottle appeared in her palm. She said lightly, "I don''t have any spirit crystals. This is a bottle of fruit free water. This water is a miraculous elixir, I hope it will be of some help to you."


    Lin Qi sized up the bottle of fruit free water. His eyelashes trembled as he sucked the fruit free water into his hand.


    "Fairy, please don''t. I''ll help you get the Spirit Crystal. How can I let you spend it?" He Chen exclaimed as he turned his head to look at Lin Qi, "Brat, I advise you to return the bottle of fruitless water as soon as possible. If not, you should know the consequences."


    Everyone''s faces were filled with jealousy and passion. Putting aside how precious the fruit free water was, the key point was that this bottle was made by a fairy and had a huge meaning. Just by this point, it could be valuable beyond measure.


    Lin Xing Yan laughed and ignored him.


    "Alright, it''s just a bottle of fruitless water. Don''t mind it too much. You have been guarding me for so long. When I return to the sect, I will definitely deliver a gift to all of you." With that, the woman in white casually walked back into the room and lightly closed the door.


    The crowd sighed a few times, unwilling to give up. At this time, another Dao Seeking expert walked over, took out a book, and handed it over to Lin Xing.


    The man was dressed like a scholar, his body releasing a faint fragrance, and his eyes were soft as he said, "500 Spirit Crystals is nothing to us, not to mention that the fairy has already voluntarily paid for it, what else can we say?" This is a divine art and its value is only above five hundred spirit crystals. "


    Lin Qi nodded to that person and then his gaze lingered on everyone''s face for a while.


    It was a success. The following matter could be settled by Ah Shan. When he left, he heard a voice that was neither cold nor hot, "Ah Shan, you are in charge of collecting fees here. Those that do not have spirit crystals can use other things as collateral.


    After a short period of silence, the next moment, furious curses could be heard. This was too arrogant ¡­

 C28

    Under Lin Xing''s stratagem, the business of the General''s Estate continued to expand, showing a situation in which it was in full swing. He left all this to Ashan, while he himself spent his days in seclusion, immersed in cultivation.


    As for the people who came because of that goddess, under the lead of the fairy, they also handed in their room fees. As for the people who came because of that fairy, under the lead of the fairy, they also handed in their room fees.


    This fairy came from a big immortal sect, and her influence was great. It was said that there were quite a few chief disciples of the Heavenly Ascension Sect that were rushing over here.


    This was a matter that made the head of the Azure Silver Country extremely proud. It alarmed the country''s ruler, and he sent someone to the general''s mansion to issue an imperial decree to make Lin Xing his servant. He had to properly attend to this group of people. If there is not enough space, my palace can also be used for them.


    Fang Tan, Lu Fan, and the rest seized the opportunity to release the news that the door of the Prime Minister''s Estate was open for free. At the same time, they were also mocking the General''s Estate for not recognizing his kindness.


    There were also people who tried to persuade Fairy Maiden to move to the Imperial Palace or the Imperial Palace, but she tactfully rejected them. To her, it was the same no matter where she lived, she didn''t really care.


    Lin Qi sat on a wooden stool in his room. On the table in front of him was an imperial edict and a blue porcelain bottle. He stared at the edict, his eyes flowing. It was unknown what he was thinking about.


    Since the woman in white had arrived, the situation had become more and more complicated. The small capital had been flooded with the disciples of various great sects and noble clans. The security of the capital had also been greatly disturbed.


    He ordered the city guards to strengthen their management. If anyone dared to break the security of the city guards, they would have to deal with them. However, this was useless, as the guards of the city were unable to stop them.


    Staring at the porcelain bottle, he took a deep breath. Right now, he had no time to take care of all this mess. The most important thing right now was to raise his strength.


    These people could just cause a ruckus as long as it wasn''t too excessive.


    Actually, Lin Xing was just lying to himself. Now even the head disciple of the Sky Sect was here, this kind of situation was not something he could control.


    Squeak...


    While deep in thought, Ah Shan pushed open the door and entered, accompanied by a skinny middle-aged man.


    "Young Master, they''re here."


    With his thoughts interrupted, Lin Xing raised his head to look at Ah Shan and the skinny middle-aged man. With a serious expression, he said, "Ah Shan, guard the door well. No one is allowed to come near."


    "Yes." Ah Shan nodded in agreement, but was stopped by Lin Xing the next moment.


    Lin Qi suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did you mention a woman who came to rely on you?"


    "Ah ¡­" Wang Yan, you know, I even arranged for her to do some bookkeeping. " Ashan, who was usually straightforward, suddenly turned bashful at this moment. He even subconsciously scratched his head. He had an embarrassed look on his face.


    Seeing his face as red as a monkey''s butt, Lin Qi immediately smiled. He pointed at him and said, "You can''t be together with that woman ¡­"


    Ashan nodded with a bashful look on his face.


    "Alright, you can leave now." Lin Qi said with a faint smile.


    Ah Shan pursed his lips and left, leaving only Lin Xing and the skinny middle-aged man in the room.


    This person was around forty years old. He had a short stature, a sharp mouth, and monkey cheeks. His deep eyes were shining brightly. His cultivation base was not high, so he was also at the Body Fusion realm.


    As his eyes focused on Li Yao, a smile appeared on Lin Xing''s face as he said, "Uncle Li, it''s been three years since we last met, but you haven''t changed at all." "No, it''s an extra look of a cunning merchant."


    "Haha, my benefactor is getting more and more powerful. "Ahh, my benefactor! I don''t dare to be called Uncle Li by that name. If it wasn''t for you, I would have already lost my life." Uncle Li''s real name was Li Wu. Three years ago, he almost died from an accident, and it was Lin Xing who saved him. His heart had always been filled with gratitude towards Lin Qi. When they saw each other again, it was as if they were old friends that had not seen each other for many years, embracing each other happily.


    Lin Xing smiled and said, "Uncle Li is older than me, and this is what I, as a junior, should call you." Now that I am in a different situation, I should be in dire straits. "


    Li Wu let out a deep sigh. He felt sorry for Lin Qi and said, "My benefactor''s name once shook the heavens. No one would have expected it to be like this. The ancient god body had already been abandoned by the heavens, it was impossible to reverse. "But no matter, my benefactor is the only son of General Lin, and in the future, he will be the one to take over the position of general. Even if he cannot become an immortal god, he can still have a lifetime of reputation."


    "General?" Heh. But that''s not my ambition. " Lin Qi sighed, filled with helplessness. Even if he recultivated now, the shackles of the Ancient God Body would be almost impossible to break. It was very likely that he would forever be stuck below the space level.


    His heart was filled with unwillingness ¡­


    Even if he held great power and spent his entire life drinking and dreaming, he did not care about it.


    What he wanted was the great Dao of Immortals and Gods, which would allow him to step into the void and control his own destiny.


    "Forget it, let''s not talk about the old days. We''ll talk about it later. I came to find Uncle Li because I have a business to discuss with you. Ashan must have said something to you. " Lin Qi took a deep breath, trying to suppress the emotions in his heart as he returned to the main topic at hand.


    Li Wu said in a deep voice, "I said, my business is spread throughout the territory of the Giant Spirit Sect, it''s good enough for me to sell the leaves, but there are two points that are hard for me to do."


    "Which two points?" Lin Xing looked up at him.


    Li Wu smacked his lips and spoke sincerely: "First, the Giant Spirit Sect is currently at war with the Sky Sect, my benefactor has given me the leaf to sell, if the news were to leak out, the Sky Sect will definitely not forgive my benefactor, this is equivalent to the crime of betraying the sect." "Secondly, the Giant Spirit Sect pays attention to body tempering. It doesn''t matter if you use weapons and sometimes become useless. If you sell the withering thunder leaves in the Giant Spirit Realm, it will be extremely difficult to sell them."


    The corners of Lin Xing''s eyes twitched. He had also thought about these two questions before, but in this special period of the General''s Estate, there was nothing he could do about it.


    His voice was cold and harsh, "The withering thunder leaves are a specialty of the Black Wind Mountain. At that time, there would definitely be some people who would criticize me on the moral high ground, but it had already forced me into a corner. I had been immersed in it for two years, and now that I had left the mountain, during this lonely time, I kept thinking, when I leave the mountain, I will definitely give a huge gift to the Sky Sect, and they won''t let me and I definitely won''t let them off easy. I am protecting the Azure Silver Country, not being cannon fodder for the Sky Sect. "


    The more he spoke, the more excited he became. His pair of pupils actually gradually turned scarlet, and his face revealed a sinister expression. His appearance was extremely terrifying.


    Li Wu looked at him, his heart palpitating with fear. Lin Xing''s ruthless attacks were also very frightening.


    Thinking of the second question, Lin Qi suddenly shook his head and sighed, "I''ll try my best to sell as much as I can. I will also think of a way. "Let''s see if there are any other ways."

 C29

    "I can only do this. I will definitely do my best to accomplish the things that my benefactor has instructed me." Li Wu said.


    Lin Qi nodded his head and could not help but sigh. He suddenly asked, "You and Ah Shan can discuss the specifics. I need to temporarily raise my strength, so I don''t have much time to worry about it." By the way, you have travelled far and wide in your experiences, do you know where that fairy came from? "


    Li Wu nodded his head and said: "I have heard a bit about that fairy''s background, but I don''t know much about it. It is said that she comes from a great Immortal Sect called the Celestial Sect of Wonders. I heard that on the surface, she came here for an immortal excursion, but in reality, she''s actually looking for an ancient ruin. "


    "Gate of Heavenly Mystery? Ancient ruins? " Lin Xing was surprised.


    "Yeah, the ancient ruins that the fairy was looking for is a legendary Lost City. It used to be the residence of a supreme expert from an immortal sect. There are many immortal arts and magic treasures hidden inside." Li Wuyi had a fanatical face, but with his strength, he could only give up.


    Lin Xing asked in shock, "So that''s how it is, why did that fairy come to the Heavenly Sect? "Could it be that the ruins are close by?"


    Hearing that, Li Wu''s pupils constricted. He took a deep breath and said, "Benefactor, don''t say it, it really is possible." I once investigated that fairy''s path, and discovered a fact, she was heading straight for the Heavenly Sect''s territory. "


    "Really?" This is something to watch. Our small Azure Silver Country is getting more and more lively. " A playful smile hung on Lin Qi''s face as a glint of anticipation flashed in the depths of his eyes.


    "There''s an even more important matter. According to reliable sources, this fairy is also a Heavenly Cauldron Monster." When Li Wu said this, he was shocked.


    "What ¡­" It seems like she is intentionally hiding her cultivation. " Lin Qi abruptly stood up from the bench, a look of horror on his face. The words'' Heavenly Cauldron Monster ''was simply too shocking.


    Staring at the blue porcelain bottle on the table, he had a strange expression on his face.


    "Alright, Uncle Li, go out and talk to Ah Shan. I''m going to cultivate."


    Hearing the words'' Heavenly Cauldron Monster '', Lin Xing felt a surge of restlessness in his heart. This was an existence that he did not even have the qualifications to look up to! For such a powerful figure to enter the general''s manor made him feel slightly uneasy. If he were to hear Uncle Li''s words, then it would be extremely strange. He urgently needed to increase his strength.


    "Alright, benefactor, I''ll head out first. Once we''re done, I''ll head back to the Giant Spirit Land. I''ll come look for you after the business gets a bit better." Li Wu said.


    Lin Xing laughed as he sent him off, "Mm. Uncle Li, take care." I''ll leave the withering thunder leaves to you. "


    After sending off Li Wu, Lin Xing immediately closed the door and took the green bottle to the room to sit down.


    He pulled out the stopper and immediately, a fragrance came out from the bottle and spread throughout the room. It was a rich and indifferent smell. Just a whiff and it would make people feel refreshed.


    This fruit free water was created by a deity. Just by its fragrance alone, one could tell that it was extraordinary.


    Staring at the bottle, he could see that it contained a liquid similar to starlight. Looking further in, it seemed like the starry sky of the universe had been formed, sparkling and translucent. Then he took out the fruitless water from the bottle. It was like fireflies dancing in the room, strange and gorgeous.


    He opened his mouth to inhale, and the immense attractive force sucked all the fruitless water into his mouth. He then circulated his spiritual energy, and swallowed the water down his throat.


    The fruit free water flowed into his internal organs. In the blink of an eye, Lin Xing''s entire body was scalding hot as smoke rose from his seven orifices. A majestic energy seemed to be rushing through his meridians.


    The golden mace trembled slightly as it let out a cold aura, but what followed was pain. Gritting his teeth, he ignored the heat coming from his body and used his spiritual power to suppress it.


    After a quarter of an hour passed, the red light around his skin did not disappear, but instead became even redder. The raging inferno of his wings seemed to have set his entire body on fire.


    His expression kept changing, sometimes fierce, sometimes shocked ¡­ This force was too powerful. Although it was not life-threatening, the pain was not something that an ordinary person could withstand.


    How was this an item from an immortal? It was obviously poison, the fairy couldn''t have wanted to take revenge on him because of the fees, right?


    After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the red flame on the surface of his skin slowly faded away. A new energy appeared in his body, gentle and clear.


    "Immortal energy ¡­"


    A milky white halo flickered on the tip of his finger. It was hazy and dreamy. If he had guessed correctly, this should be the immortal aura from the legends.


    Right now, the celestial spiritual energy and divine power in his body coexisted with each other. He was both happy and worried.


    In fact, everyone could train multiple types of powers at the same time. Of course, this didn''t include nether energy. No matter which type of power one fused with, it would repel. However, divine force and celestial qi would reject it. However, it would not be as strong as one''s netherworld spiritual energy, and would cause one''s body to progress at a slow pace. This was a matter of loss and gain, and this was the reason why very few people chose to cultivate multiple energies.


    "Since I''ve already cultivated the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique, if I have the assistance of immortal energy, its might will be even greater. Two types of power?" I don''t refuse. Once again cultivating, I will work even harder and stronger than others. "


    Lin Qi''s eyes were brimming with new spirit energy, brimming with determination and anticipation. He continued to absorb more spirit energy and the two types of elemental energies advanced simultaneously, cultivating simultaneously.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Ashan hurried into the house.


    Lin Xing looked up, frowning as he asked, "What''s the matter?"


    "The Sky Sect''s Quan Li is here. He asked to see you by name." Ashan Road.


    "Quan Li? It should be because of that fairy. "By the way, I asked her about my father." Lin Xing frowned as he muttered to himself.


    "I think so too, the day to collect the debt has not arrived. She came to our general''s manor, most likely because of that fairy, Quan Li is waiting for you in the hall. Young master, you should hurry over, don''t provoke her, we can''t afford to offend the Skysword Sect now." Ashan urged.


    Lin Qi shook his head and said, "There''s no need to rush. The general''s household is a mess right now. Have her come to my room later. It would be more convenient to discuss anything in my room."


    "Yes, I''ll go call her." Ashan turned and left.


    "Wait a minute, I had you send someone to keep an eye on that fairy yesterday. What''s the situation?" Lin Xing asked.


    Ah Shan looked embarrassed as he said, "Young master, there are many Dao Division experts guarding this fairy. The people I sent to monitor her do not dare to approach her, but I am sure that she has never left her room before."


    "He didn''t leave?"


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows as he muttered to himself, "He really didn''t leave?"


    "Send people to keep an eye on her. Report every move she makes to me at any time." Lin Qi''s eyes were burning with fervor, as if some sort of opportunity had flashed past him.


    "Yes."

 C30

    The door to the room was pushed open and a young woman slowly walked in. She was dressed in luxurious clothing and a beautiful appearance.


    After entering the room, Lin Xing did not look at her first. Instead, he poured himself a cup of tea and drank from it.


    When Quan Li saw that his expression was icy cold and that he liked to ignore his words, his eyes became slightly gloomy. With a cold voice, he said, "You sure are arrogant. You even need me to find you personally. I''ll have to trouble you to know your identity. You are no longer the head disciple of my sect."


    He stared straight ahead, not looking at Quan Li. He said lightly: "You must have come to me for a reason, so you should be the one who should be asking for help."


    Then he turned his head and smiled: "Would you like some tea?" The person who came is our guest. "


    "Nope." Quan Li was infuriated, flames of fury burning in his heart.


    With her identity, no matter which country she went to, she would be treated as a guest of honor, even fawning over her with all sorts of heavenly materials. But now, not only did Lin Xing ignore her, he even planned on using a cup of tea to send her away.


    "I''m warning you, this fairy is very important and has attracted the attention of my school''s elders. You must not anger her, and no matter what help she needs, you must unconditionally obey." Quan Li said solemnly.


    Lin Qi looked over in a blink of an eye, his lips twitching as he chuckled, "You want to obey unconditionally? Are you ordering me? Furthermore, that fairy is at least a Dao Seeking expert. With my strength, what can I do to help? I will just shut myself up and sleep. Don''t help me out and ruin the big matter of your Sky Sect. "


    Quan Li''s eyes turned cold. He suddenly released a wave of killing intent, pointed straight at Lin Qi and said: "You''re right, this is an order, you''d better behave yourself for the time being. You must know, even if all the lives in your general''s household were put together, they wouldn''t even be worth a single strand of that fairy''s hair."


    "Haha ¡­"


    Lin Qi let out a wry laugh, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. It was as if two raging flames were burning in his eyes.


    "Also, someone from the Yin Master School came to visit us and challenged you. Seems like he didn''t know that you were already a trash. In the end, there was nothing for him to do. Senior Sister Cang Xiaoxiao will represent you in the battle, and they will fight to a draw. However, because of this, he actually fell for Senior Sister Cang Xiaoxiao and started to pursue her crazily. Elder Cang Yushi was also very satisfied with this person and took him in as an honorary disciple, and he also promised that as long as he can marry Cang Xiaoxiao, he will be willing to stay in our Heaven Sect from now on. " As Quan Li spoke, he stared at Lin Qi''s expression. There was a trace of ridicule in his eyes.


    However, to her disappointment, Lin Qi remained indifferent, as if he did not hear anything. He did not say a word, and in fact, his fists were tightly clenched.


    "Really?" Then I really must congratulate my senior sister. " Lin Qi suppressed the pain in his heart as he asked in a trembling voice, blood dripping from his heart.


    Quan Li smiled disdainfully, and said: "It''s just that Senior Sister Cang isn''t too interested in that person and has always been indifferent. But let me give you a word of advice, do not ever have any thoughts because of this. From the day you became a mortal, we are no longer people of the same world.


    "I understand. I don''t need you to teach me. "


    Lin Qi gritted his teeth as he panted heavily. He could not help but ask, "Is it convenient to tell me the name of the person from the Yin Master School?"


    "What is it? It can''t be that you want to challenge him, right? With your strength, it''s impossible for you to do so in your entire lifetime. However, telling you is a small matter. Listen carefully, his name is Yun Chi. " Quan Li kept laughing out loud, hands on his hips, face towards the sky.


    Cloud Cards...


    Lin Xing memorized the situation.


    He changed the topic and asked, "How is my father at the front?"


    Quan Li''s beautiful face twitched, his tone changed, and became gentle yet full of praise: "Hehe, that father of yours is really not simple. In order to help you pay your debt, he charged again and again, and took the lead. So far, you have rendered ten great merits to the Sky-rising Sect, and even the Elders Guild was alarmed. "


    Hearing this, Lin Qi''s heart was finally in turmoil and he could no longer remain calm. His face was filled with intense guilt, unease, and even more worry.


    "Thank you for the news." Lin Xing still had to thank Ye Chen. At the very least, he had a rough idea of what was going on in his mind.


    Quan Li chuckled and didn''t mind.


    After repeated warnings and warnings, Quan Li left. Lin Xing also walked out of his room.


    When he pushed open the door, he saw many unfamiliar and hurried figures. He could only sigh. It was not a good thing that the fairy had come. It had caused him a great deal of trouble and a headache.


    At this moment, Ashan hurried over, as if there was an urgent report.


    He walked up to Lin Xing and glanced at the passing crowd. Lowering his voice, he said, "Young master, we just received two pieces of news."


    "Speak one at a time." Lin Xing frowned.


    According to the reports from the sources in the Lin City, someone once saw a white-clothed female in a desolate mountain. She was extraordinary and possessed an unparalleled aura, making it hard for people to forget her. Ashan Road.


    "Could it be her?" Lin Qi gazed into the room of the celestial maiden and softly said.


    "It''s not impossible, but I''m sure she never left the room." Ashan said confidently.


    Lin Qi''s lips curved into a smile as he said in a profound tone, "Her strength is unfathomable. It is a piece of cake for her to not be seen. Sometimes, what she sees cannot necessarily be real."


    Then he asked, "What else?"


    Ashan bit his lips, wanting to say something but hesitated, "Not far from Capital City, a village was massacred. Not a single person was spared, and it was a tragic sight. Even their souls were taken away."


    "Humph, the underworld!"


    Lin Qi''s heart trembled as he released his boundless killing intent. His eyes were as sharp as knives.


    "Yes, from the looks of it, he was killed by the Dark Dwellers." Ashan''s face was ashen.


    "Let''s go, I want to personally take a look at some of the soldiers." Lin Qi clenched his fists.


    Ashan nodded, then he and Lin Xing led more than twenty soldiers to ride their horses out of the city gate.


    The village was only about fifty miles away from the capital. Lin Xing and his men arrived soon, riding fine horses.


    Sweeping his eyes over the mess of dead bodies, Lin Xing, Ah Shan, and the group of soldiers behind him were enraged.


    This was too vicious. The elderly, women, children, all of them had to be spared.


    The entire village was deathly still and looked miserable. From the looks of it, this was undoubtedly done by the people from the Netherworld Sect.


    "Buried these corpses and erected a monument. Before long, I''ll use the heads of those from the underworld sect to pay my respects to them." Lin Xing ordered with a murderous look on his face.


    After receiving his order, the group of soldiers immediately began to move. They cleaned up the corpses and buried them.


    Suddenly, a soldier on a handsome horse approached them. He was a member of the general''s manor.


    Seeing Lin Xing, he immediately dismounted and said in a respectful and anxious voice, "Young master, the situation is bad."


    "Speak."


    "Just now, there was a group of Dark Cultivators killing people in the city. They were coincidentally caught by Young Master Gu Yuan and have started fighting." the soldier said.


    "Ah Shan. You and the others stay here and continue to clean up the body. I''ll go back first. "


    As Lin Qi spoke, he mounted a handsome horse and rushed back to the capital without looking back.

 C31

    Because of the arrival of the fairy, the entire Azure Silver Country had sunk into a huge whirlpool, especially the capital city.


    Someone released the news that the fairy was preparing to preach in the capital.


    Furthermore, he was a fairy. This was enough to stir up a huge commotion within the territory of the divine arts great sects.


    Suddenly, many people from all directions rushed over.


    The Door of Immortality was the most holy and elegant of the six. If one could listen to an immortal''s teachings, it was a fortunate thing. Many people who were stuck at the bottleneck would benefit greatly from it.


    Currently, the capital city was packed with people. There were many people rushing in at every moment. Lin Xing was galloping on his horse on the streets, riding on his peerless horse. The crowd on both sides automatically moved to the side.


    After detecting Lin Qi''s level of cultivation, a wave of curses and curses came one after another. Unfortunately, Lin Xing had already disappeared into the sea of people.


    He dared to act so brazenly in the city with just his cultivation base. He was simply courting death. One had to know that there were so many cultivators at the Dao Division level in the city, and they were not worth much anymore.


    Looking ahead, the group of people were spectating, and the center of the arena flickered with saber lights, sword images, and flying sand and dust. The auras of the three Dao Division cultivators surged out, and the faces of the surrounding cultivators all changed.


    Lin Xing, who was mounted on a large horse, saw that one of the men was Gu Yuan. He was fighting against two, but he actually didn''t seem to be at a disadvantage at all.


    It had been ten years since a battle between three Dao Seeking experts had occurred in the capital. A massive wave of energy swept out in all directions, causing everyone''s faces to pale in comparison.


    Many people knew Gu Yuan and knew that he was one of the eight protectors of the General''s Estate. Whether it was in the imperial court or in the military, his influence was no weaker than the previous Ling Feiming.


    As for the two people he was fighting, although they were unfamiliar faces, their bodies were full of nether energy and were surrounded by a large amount of deathly aura. Clearly, they all came from the underworld faction.


    Gu Yuan fighting the two Nether Sect geniuses single-handedly with ease was something that would make every citizen of the Cyan Silver Country proud.


    "Get out of the way."


    Suddenly, a man on a handsome horse rushed in and disrupted the movements of the three people. Even those close to him couldn''t help but retreat backwards.


    When the dust settled, everyone looked at the owner of the horse with fiery eyes. When Gu Yuan saw this figure, his cold expression remained unchanged. However, he still walked to the horse and stood shoulder to shoulder with the figure.


    Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell in a second that this was Gu Yuan''s accomplice.


    When the group of people from the Netherworld Sect saw Lin Qi charging towards them, their expressions changed slightly. When they noticed Lin Xing''s cultivation, they smiled mockingly.


    "How is it? They didn''t hurt you, did they? " Lin Xing dismounted from his horse and asked Gu Yuan in a concerned tone.


    He shook his head lightly and said in a cold voice, "I''m fine. It''s just that you shouldn''t have come here to meddle. With your current strength, you won''t be able to control the situation. All you need to do now is to train behind closed doors and raise your cultivation."


    "I''ve been quiet for too long." Lin Qi said in a casual tone, but his tone was filled with an unquestionable determination.


    Gu Yuan''s eyes trembled as he laughed softly without saying a word.


    The two Dao Divisionaries from the Netherworld Sect were young men. To be able to cultivate to Dao Dividing at such a young age, they must be talented disciples of great sects. If Lin Xing''s guess was right, they should be the people from the Yin Master School.


    At this moment, the two of them automatically opened a gap, and a young man walked out from behind them. His eyebrows were sharp, and his clothes fluttered in the wind.


    Moreover, his power was profound and unpredictable, far surpassing the average Dao Division.


    Walking up, he gazed at Lin Xing and Gu Yuan with a hint of contempt in his eyes. He was like a lofty emperor, disdainful of everything.


    He stared at Gu Yuan and said, "This is the helper you invited?" An existence just like an ant dares to be so presumptuous in front of us. "


    Gu Yuan remained silent. His eyes were as cold as ever, like a block of ten thousand year old ice that emitted a bone-piercing chill.


    Lin Xing was disgusted by his gaze. He stared at the young man and asked tentatively, "Yun Chi?"


    "Hmm?" The young man stared blankly for a moment before asking in a deep voice, "How do you know my name?"


    Lin Qi''s eyes were as cold as ice as he sobbed, "You''ve killed countless citizens of my Azure Silver Country on your way here. Of course, those wronged souls told me. They told me to tell you that one day, they will come and claim your life."


    "Haha ¡­"


    Yun Chi and the group of Dark Dwellers laughed. Even a three year old child would not believe such words.


    Yun Chi raised his eyebrows and said: "A group of lowly people, dying under my hands is their honor. Why, do you want to take revenge for them?"


    The moment he said that, the group of Dark Dwellers by his side burst into laughter once again, their laughter filled with ridicule and disdain.


    "That''s exactly what I was thinking." Lin Xing gritted his teeth and said.


    "Hmph, boasting shamelessly." Yun Chi''s gaze turned as if he had thought of something. He asked: "Are you the trash of the ancient god?"


    Lin Qi did not answer him. Instead, he stared at him with an expression as cold as ice.


    Yun Chi continued to speak, "I had heard of your name two years ago, so I came a thousand miles to find you, intending to fight you head on. Who knew that you would not be able to cross that threshold in the end, what a pity, what a pity, Xiaoxiao will only be mine in the future."


    His tone was light and casual, and his gaze towards Lin Xing was laced with killing intent and mockery.


    However, he did not see the furious look on Lin Qi''s face. The latter only clenched his fists, not saying a word.


    "Senior Brother Yun, this piece of trash is not worthy to fight with you right now. Why don''t you let this little brother do the work for you and let him die under my Soul Training Skill?" A skinny young Dao Realm man said to Yun Chi.


    "Senior brother Qu He, take care of this trash. How can I let you dirty your hands? Let junior come."


    Following that, another person walked up and asked to come forward. He stared at Lin Qi with disdain. This was also a Yin Master School disciple with a cultivation base at the peak of the Acupoint Charging Realm.


    Yun Chi waved his hand, agreeing with his actions.


    It was a young man of about twenty years of age. He had an eye-catching knife scar on his face which was shaped like a centipede. It stretched from his nose all the way to his right ear. He looked extremely ferocious.


    "Kid, if you kneel on the ground and kowtow three hundred times, I might be in a good mood and let you go." The knife-scarred youth ridiculed.


    Lin Qi raised a finger and waved it in the air.


    The young man''s body moved and he charged forward with a punch that released a boundless, ruthless aura. He looked like a ferocious ghost.


    His Sect of Netherworld was ruthless in its moves. The moment it appeared, it was a killing move, and it did not even give Lin Xing a chance to counterattack. It executed seven or eight moves in a row.


    Lin Xing had fulfilled his wish, but he did not retaliate. Instead, he continued to retreat.


    The spectating Gu Yuan watched this scene indifferently, a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.


    "Still hiding." The knife-scarred youth was angry. He put his fists together and hit the ground. For a moment the ground shook three times.


    "Alright, I''ll do as you wish."


    Lin Xing then rushed over with his two fingers pressed together. A black light flashed on the tip of his fingers as he pointed at the scarred youth''s chest with unerring accuracy.


    The finger attack was weak and seemed soft. After feeling it, the knife-scarred youth laughed in disdain. He thought it was some kind of powerful divine technique.


    "Ah ¡­"


    However, in the next moment, his body trembled and his expression stiffened. He let out an appalling, blood-curdling scream.


    After struggling for two seconds, he fell straight to the ground. Blood flowed from his seven orifices and his flesh dried up. His appearance had instantly aged several decades.


    The life force in his body was instantly destroyed by the Death God power.


    "What?! You killed him?!"


    "You are courting death. No one has ever dared to provoke the dignity of my Unravel Yin Sect. "You''re dead this time."

 C32

    This time, Lin Xing didn''t show any mercy. Killing a Yin Master disciple on the street caused an uproar in the crowd.


    Of course, for him, killing this person alone was far from enough. He had said before that he would take the heads of this group of Dark Dwellers to the front of the monument to pay homage to the innocent Undead who had died tragically.


    A Yin Master had been killed, and it was in a small country. With Yun Chi leading the group of Dark Dwellers, it was as if they had received a serious challenge.


    The two Dao Seeking experts rushed towards Lin Xing, swearing to tear him into a thousand pieces.


    However, he was blocked by Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan remained unmoved as his eyes turned cold. This meant that if they wanted to touch him, they had to get past me first.


    "Get out of my way, or I''ll kill you too."


    Suddenly, Yun Chi walked over, bringing with him a large amount of deathly air of hostility. He was also enraged. Today, he would definitely kill Lin Xing to save himself from this humiliation.


    A heavy pressure descended. Due to Gu Yuan blocking his way, he withstood all of the force. He immediately felt like he was facing a great enemy, beads of sweat dripping down his face.


    Yun Chi was too strong, and even Gu Yuan was not his match. Under the pressure, no one could stand up to him.


    Gu Yuan''s face showed that he was struggling and his back was drenched in sweat. It was as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast. Coupled with the heavy pressure and pressure, he was actually unable to hold on and could not help but take a heavy step back. However, his eyes were firm and filled with determination.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing had to step forward and fight back with Gu Yuan at the same time.


    Gu Yuan couldn''t even hold on, much less him. The moment he entered that area, it was as if he had walked into a pitch black cage filled with evil spirits that screamed incessantly in all directions.


    That terrifying atmosphere directly hit their hearts. If it wasn''t for the fact that they had strong willpower, they would have very easily broken down.


    "Let''s see how long the two of you can last."


    Yun Chi stood high above them, looking at the two of them with a playful look in his eyes, especially when he looked at Lin Qi, his killing intent was endless.


    Suddenly, a powerful force swept through the crowd and pushed Yun Chi back. He couldn''t help but take three steps back.


    Lin Qi and Gu Yuan instantly felt a sense of relief. It was as if a mountain had been moved away from their shoulders, and they both retreated backward at the same time.


    A pretty figure slowly walked out from the crowd. The girl was about twenty years old, and her beauty was edible. She was elegant and refined, as if she was a beauty that could shock the world.


    Everyone''s attention was focused on her wherever she went. When she appeared, everyone''s gazes were attracted to her.


    He walked over with large strides, looking calm and composed, and his face contained a faint coldness.


    Yun Chi''s eyes narrowed into slits as he looked at the beautiful woman. He discovered that this woman''s strength actually made him feel like he couldn''t see through her.


    It was just as unfathomable...


    The surrounding people did not recognize this girl, and their expressions were all blank and surprised. This normally rarely seen genius had appeared one after another today.


    Lin Qi was surprised when he saw the girl''s face. He knew her. Her name was Yin Valley Spirit, and she was one of the top disciples of the Sky Sect.


    The most shocking thing was the woman''s other identity. She was the precious daughter of the Heaven Rising Sect Master Yin Sha. Her status was extraordinary and she had the authority to rule the world. They had only met twice, and they didn''t even seem to have spoken to each other. Yet now, they were actually extending a helping hand to him.


    "You are an accomplice of the two of them? I advise you to not meddle in other people''s business. If you offend my Yin Master School, no one will have a good ending. " Yun Chi warned with a solemn voice.


    The Yin Valley spirit raised its head, looked at him and said, "You already know that you are an accomplice, and you still dare to say such stupid words. This chief disciple of the Yin Valley is truly worthy of his reputation."


    "Hmph, are you really going to interfere?" Yun Chi''s face was gloomy.


    "So what?" Once again, the Yin Valley Spirit looked over with a sidelong glance. His words contained a hint of cynicism and cynicism.


    This woman''s strength was not any weaker than his. If he were to interfere, then it would be impossible for him to kill Lin Xing today.


    In the end, he released his clenched fist and said to Lin Qi, "I hope that you can live a little longer. If you fall into my hands one day, I will definitely make you suffer a fate worse than death."


    After he finished, he turned around and left, the group of people following closely behind him.


    "In three months, I will cut off your dog head."


    They didn''t even walk far before they heard Lin Xing''s murderous voice resounding in their ears.


    The Yin Valley spirit as well as the surrounding people immediately looked at him with wide eyes. Could this young man have gone mad? Some things don''t have to be said in person.


    "Alright, I''ll wait. Then we''ll see who dies miserably."


    As Yun Chi left, he threw down these harsh words. In his heart, he did not care about Lin Xing''s words at all. Instead, he was greatly angered.


    "Thank you. I never thought that you would be the one to help me." Lin Qi said to the Yin Valley.


    The Yin Valley spirit laughed and said, "I came to listen to the fairy''s sermon. Since I met her, I can''t just ignore her. After all, you were once my junior brother."


    Lin Qi could only helplessly smile. The Yin Valley spirit helping him was a piece of cake. He sighed in his heart, with his current strength, he still hasn''t obtained anyone''s acknowledgement.


    "Go to my general''s mansion and stay for the time being, so that your junior brother from the past can become the host''s friend." Lin Qi invited.


    In fact, the Yin Valley spirit was not only stunning, but it also had a very high status. As the daughter of the grand master, he did not want to offend her, and if he could befriend her, he would not miss this opportunity.


    "No need, I''ve already agreed to let them stay in the Prime Minister''s Estate." The Yin Valley spirit pointed at Fang Tan and Lu Fan who were standing at the front of the crowd.


    Lin Qi looked over and saw Fang Tan and Lu Fan staring at him with smiles on their faces. Not only that, he had also discovered a familiar face.


    Zhu Yanghua. When he saw this person, his heart couldn''t help but tremble.


    In such a short period of time, Zhu Yanghua had actually mixed in with Fang Tan and Lu Fan, becoming a small marten.


    Zhu Yanghua also felt Qin Wentian''s gaze, and similarly, directed his killing intent at him.


    Since the words had come to this point, Lin Xing couldn''t possibly cry and beg the Yin Valley spirit to stay at the general''s manor. Even with his personality, he couldn''t do it. Finally, he exchanged a few more pleasantries with the spirit of the Yin Valley before returning home together with Gu Yuan.


    The two of them knew each other''s hearts. At this special moment in the general''s manor, both of them were well aware of the danger they were about to face. There was no need to say anything, it was better than nothing.


    Nightfall. The full moon rose slowly, the stars were shining brightly.


    When Lin Xing returned to his residence, he did not do many things. He went straight back to his room and started cultivating.


    At this critical juncture, increasing his strength was a top priority. Otherwise, he would have a hard time facing the next series of dangers.


    Squeak...


    The door was knocked open by someone. Not bad, it was indeed knocked open by someone. It caused a huge commotion and caused Lin Xing to open his eyes immediately. His vigilance and alertness were greatly boosted.


    In the dark night, a white shadow rushed into the room. Because the room was airtight and was quite dark, a white flame appeared around the shadow to illuminate the room.


    "Fairy ¡­"


    With the help of the white light, he was able to see the white shadow clearly.


    It was a woman in white. Her face was covered by a white veil, and her legs were long and thin.


    The moment she entered the room, the door closed automatically. There was even a hint of stealth on her face. Her actions and behavior startled Lin Xing so much that his jaw dropped.


    "Hurry, there''s a cave two hundred miles away from the capital. Immediately send someone to put this thing into the cave, then bury the cave." The goddess spoke in a rush, her breathing weak.


    After which, he took out an object and placed it on the table. It was a small bronze cauldron. It was plain and simple, and its patterns were like that of a beast''s, making it seem completely unremarkable.


    Lin Qi did not immediately reach out for the small cauldron. Instead, he asked in surprise, "You''re injured?"


    "Nope." However, she still subconsciously sat on the bench.


    He then said angrily, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go! If you delay any further, all of us will die!"


    Hearing her urging tone, Lin Qi did not dare to be careless. Still, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is it dangerous there?"


    "Pa ¡­"


    The goddess could not take it any longer, and smacked the table until it was smashed into pieces. She angrily shouted, "If you continue to blabber like this, do you believe that I won''t kill you?"


    As the killing intent spread out, Lin Xing felt a chill down his spine. He felt a chill run down his spine, but in the next moment, the goddess''s aura completely dissipated, and he weakly sat back down on the bench.


    Suddenly, someone hastily slammed open the door, breaking the tense atmosphere.


    The person who came was Ah Shan. He rushed in, and before he could even see what was going on inside, he impatiently said to Lin Xing, "Young master, we just received the latest news. That fairy fought with a powerful existence two hundred miles away."


    Lin Qi made a face and pointed at the woman in white.


    Ashan''s expression turned blank as he looked towards the direction of the finger and immediately sat down on the ground in fright.


    "You sent someone to spy on me?" The goddess looked at Lin Qi coldly. If she wasn''t injured, she would have strangled this audacious fellow to death.


    Lin Qi rubbed his nose, his expression full of guilt, but he did not say a word. Were all the people in the immortal sects like this? Murder is often mentioned.


    With a frown, he handed the small bronze cauldron to Ah Shan and said, "There is a cave there. Bring some people with you and place this small cauldron inside the cave, and then seal the cave up. Remember, you must be careful."


    "Yes, yes." The appearance of the woman in white caused Ashan to be at a loss of what to do. When he heard Lin Xing''s words, his expression immediately changed, and he rushed out of the room with the small cauldron in his hand.


    "You must not let anyone else know about this, including the matter of me coming to your room. Otherwise, I will definitely tear the two of you into pieces."


    The woman in white''s cold voice reached Lin Xing and Ah Shan, who had yet to leave the house. The two of them were shocked.

 C33

    Inside the room, a hazy white light shone. The goddess sat on the bench, tall and straight, her surroundings emitting a gentle light. It was hazy and strange, like a fairy in a painting, pure and holy, not daring to profane her heart.


    Although her face was covered by the white gauze, it couldn''t hide her dream-like expression.


    "Remember what I said, don''t think that I''m joking with you. You must keep this secret in your heart forever." The goddess turned her head to stare at Lin Qi. Her voice was no longer ethereal and tactful, but filled with a ferocious intent.


    Lin Qi stared at her and nodded his head helplessly. He couldn''t afford to offend this fairy.


    The woman in white snorted lightly. She was disgusted by his gaze as she kept looking away. His gaze made her feel uncomfortable. She stood up, slammed the table, and turned to leave.


    However, just as he stood up, he lost his balance and almost fell to the ground, slanting to the side.


    Lin Qi hurriedly stepped forward to support her. As expected, she did not actually fall, otherwise the scene would have been extremely awkward.


    "Scram, stay away from me." However, the woman in white didn''t show any intention of thanking him. She turned her head to look at Lin Qi with disgust.


    Lin Qi rolled his eyes. He was so kind that he treated her like a mule, but he didn''t let go. Instead, he pushed himself to the limit and hugged the woman in white''s body.


    "If you dare touch me again, I swear, I will chop your hands into mincemeat." The white-clothed woman was furious. She tried to struggle free, but it was difficult for her to even move her arms.


    While smelling the faint fragrance of a woman''s body in front of his nose, he also felt the warm and fragrant jade in his embrace. Lin Xing looked at her cold eyes, his heart at peace, without a single ripple. He picked her up and placed her on the bed.


    It could be seen that the goddess''s injuries were too severe. She struggled to get off the bed, let alone walk.


    After doing all this, Lin Xing gazed at the delicate figure of the white-clothed figure in front of him as he lightly said, "You can rest in my room tonight. I will go to another room to sleep."


    The woman in white rested her head on the pillow and gently rotated it. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and her expression became extremely strange. For some inexplicable reason, she actually had a good impression of Lin Xing.


    "Wait, you will stay here tonight to heal my wounds. I have already promised you that I will be preaching in the capital in two days. My injuries cannot be delayed."


    "Me?" Lin Xing hadn''t turned around yet, but upon hearing this, he was startled. He pointed at his own nose and said, "You think too highly of me. How could I heal? How about I call a Godly Doctor for you?"


    "I don''t want to repeat that. No one should know about what happened tonight. With your help, I can teach you medicine. " The woman in white glared at Lin Xing. He was too unenlightened, it was a headache for him.


    Lin Xing reluctantly nodded his head and said, "Fine then, let''s fight to the death."


    As the white-clothed woman saw his half-dead expression, the fire in her heart began to burn. Then, she heard the following words, and her entire body collapsed. She even had the heart to die.


    He could only say that Lin Xing''s use of words was inappropriate. How could the exalted Celestial Gate fairy change its flavor the moment it came out of his mouth?


    This is blasphemy...


    Lin Qi had a reluctant look on his face. He could only do as she said. If he could send this fairy away as soon as possible, it would be worth it.


    In the eyes of others, he was merely a fairy. But in the eyes of Lin Xing, he was simply a god of plague. If those pursuers were to find out that he was lying on his bed, wouldn''t they be able to kill him?


    Holding onto the fairy, he half sat her down on the bed. His fingertips flashed with a white light as he pointed it at Lin Xing''s forehead.


    Lin Qi immediately felt his mind become extremely clear. Suddenly, a series of runes appeared out of nowhere and filled his mind with a holy and gentle light.


    "Do you want me to clear all the meridians in your body?" He asked in surprise as he sat on the edge of the bed and leaned on the goddess''s back.


    The goddess''s face turned black, and her heart burned with boundless flames. Her forehead began to heat up, and her delicate body began to tremble with rage.


    He didn''t know if he should call Lin Xing an ignorant hooligan or a hooligan.


    He said, "Use your spiritual energy and just follow the steps in the Pulse Pushing Method."


    "Oh." Lin Qi nodded his head in confusion. Then, his eyes darted around as he asked, "If I were to use immortal energy, would the effect be better?"


    "You possess immortal energy?" The goddess frowned, a look of disbelief on her face.


    Lin Xing did not say anything more and began to channel the immortal energy in his body. He followed the pulse pushing technique and began to treat her injuries.


    Two ice-cold fingers pressed against the woman in white''s back, and a steady stream of immortal energy flowed into her. This immediately caused her to let out a soft gasp of pain.


    Lin Qi could not bear it any longer, so he used part of his strength.


    "There''s no need to be so merciful, I can bear it." The woman in white''s voice was barely audible.


    Lin Qi had no choice but to obey. With a heavier force, the woman in white let out another series of delicate wheezing sounds, making his bones go numb.


    Lin Qi shook his head and quickly wiped away the evil thoughts in his mind.


    After a long while, the goddess''s breathing, which could make people bleed from their noses, gradually disappeared.


    "It seems like you are only able to refine immortal energy because you have no fruit water. Cultivating two types of energy at the same time is not worth it ah. I advise you to give up as soon as possible." She suddenly asked gently.


    Lin Qi did not answer her question. Instead, he was immersed in treating her injuries. He turned a deaf ear to everything that was happening outside and appeared to be extremely focused.


    The goddess was also slightly moved by his warm action. In her heart, she couldn''t help but feel a little better towards Lin Qi.


    After another long period of time, there were only two hours left before daybreak. Lin Xing had already treated Fairy Qingmei as she had before by using the Pulse Pushing Art.


    The goddess walked down the bed, looking full of energy and vigor. Her strength had also recovered by more than half.


    On the other hand, Lin Qi''s complexion was slightly pale. Because using that night''s worth of immortal energy made him feel as if he had overdrawn his body, and he was physically and mentally exhausted.


    Looking at the goddess''s expression, he was shocked by the effect of the Pulse Pushing Technique. He immediately felt as if he had obtained a treasure, and such a heavy injury was healed in one night. He didn''t dare to imagine it as a celestial technique.


    "Your performance was not bad. Tell me how I should thank you. How about this, I will be lecturing in two days. When the time comes, you can come listen as well." The woman in white said.


    Lin Qi wiped away his sweat and couldn''t help but roll his eyes. You''re lecturing on a lot of people, not just me, how can you be considered grateful?


    "No need, you preach. How can a small character like me understand that? If you truly want to thank me, then tell me your name." Lin Qi looked at her with a lively and spirited gaze.


    Puchi ¡­


    The exalted goddess actually had such a cute and unique name. Lin Xing couldn''t help but secretly laugh at her.


    The white-clothed woman gritted her teeth, staring at him with a gaze that seemed like it could spit fire. Lin Qi quickly covered his mouth, not daring to laugh again. This goddess had already recovered her strength. She wanted to teach him a lesson.


    The little guy''s eyes lit up as he said, "You are the first person here to know my name. If you dare to spread my name, you will know the result." Do you have any other questions? I''m in a good mood today, so I can tell you as well. "


    Lin Qi thought for a moment before his expression changed. "I want to see your face."


    "F * ck off."


    This guy really knows how to climb up the pole. This brat was so infuriated that he replied with a scram. All he saw was a flash of white light and his body disappeared into thin air.

 C34

    He was both physically and mentally exhausted. However, he only needed to rest for a short period of time before he immediately left his room. Riding on a handsome horse, he rushed out of the manor and headed outside the city.


    He had just recalled that Ashan had not returned from his visit to the cave last night, and his heart was filled with anxiety and worry.


    Looking at the faintly discernible red light in the east, his face was filled with anxiety. He rode his horse at an incredible speed and in the blink of an eye, he was already out of the city. He crossed over a barren mountain.


    After the time it took to make a cup of tea, he arrived at the location of the cave in the wilderness.


    Lin Xing took one look at Ah Shan''s silhouette and immediately let out a sigh of relief, riding his horse and galloping away.


    "Young Master, why are you here?" Ah Young Master asked Lin Qi as he helped him off the horse.


    Lin Qi''s eyes swept over the surrounding armored soldiers. His gaze was attracted by the piles of rocks piled together. "Since you haven''t come back tonight, I''ve come to take a look."


    A large group of soldiers were moving rocks in groups of three to five, moving towards the mountain of stones. Everyone was sweating profusely. After a busy night, they all felt that it was too much for them.


    "This cave entrance is too big, it''s like a mountain. Over a hundred of us, we spent an entire night, but still haven''t managed to fill it up." Ashan wiped his sweat.


    Lin Xing let out a breath and said, "Let them stop. That''s good enough. If there really is a powerful existence inside, then these stones will not be able to stop it." The fairy''s intention is to cover up the cave entrance so that no one will discover it. "


    "Young master told you to stop and rest." Ashan shouted at the soldiers.


    When the group of people heard this, it was as if they received amnesty. They immediately became paralyzed on the ground, and even laid down on the ground. They were extremely tired.


    This question was extremely important. From the cold and serious tone of the boy, one could tell that there was definitely a terrifying existence concealed within. That simple and unadorned small cauldron might be a rarely known unique treasure that could suppress it.


    "I put it in. I put it in myself." Ashan replied.


    "Tell me what''s going on inside." Lin Xing said.


    "As soon as I entered the cave, I saw a deep abyss. It was pitch-black and terrifyingly quiet, and in the darkness, I could clearly see two eyes that were like blood moons. I can''t describe their fiendish aura, and with just a glance, I had the illusion that I had fallen into the abyss. Then I quickly threw the small bronze cauldron into the abyss, and hastily ran out."


    "Are you sure it''s an eye?" Lin Qi''s heart trembled as he asked with a frown.


    "I''m sure. The black and white are distinct, and the bloody aura is like the sea. On the pair of eyes, there are countless wraiths running amok. It''s the same scene as the Underworld." Ashan''s body trembled.


    "Fierce Demon?" Lin Qi felt a strange shock in his heart.


    He could clearly feel that the wilderness was deathly still. The faint sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling came from the surroundings. If he were to listen carefully, he would feel his scalp go numb.


    Closing his eyes, the Death God power surged out from his body and drilled into the ground, extending deep into the ground.


    The Death God power quickly merged with the death aura, borrowing the death aura''s power to extend deeper and deeper.


    Soon, the bottomless chasm in Ah Shan''s mouth seemed to have appeared clearly in front of him. However, he did not notice that the giant eye was as black as ink and cold without any light.


    Bang, bang ¡­


    However, at this moment, rhythmic thumping sounds rang out one after another, like the subtle thump of a heart. Although the voices were low, it resounded through the entire space and caused six tremors.


    Lin Qi''s face turned pale, he immediately retrieved his Death God Power and retreated out of the abyss.


    He opened his eyes, and his expression was filled with cold sweat. This was too terrifying. Just the beating sound alone was not something that a human could emit. It was like the heart of a demonic deity, ancient, vigorous, tyrannical ¡­


    "Young Master, I just checked the historical data." Ah Shan''s voice entered his ears, causing Lin Xing''s body to tremble as he instantly regained his senses.


    "Speak."


    "600,000 years ago, there was an absolute body Great Sage called Big Tomb Slaughter that died in our Sky Realm. Later on, many absolute body experts came over to search for his corpse, but they all failed." Ashan said.


    Lin Qi was visibly moved as he asked, "So you''re saying that the pair of giant eyes belonged to the Beheading Body Great Honored Warrior from the Great Zang Zai Clan?"


    "It''s not impossible." Ashan guessed, but he wasn''t sure.


    Lin Qi was shocked, and then he remembered the sound of his heart beating. If that was the case, then it was very likely that the Great Tomb Slaughter was still alive, but it had been sealed in this place.


    Even if he died, his corpse would be a powerful weapon. It had to be known that the body of the body refiners was the best weapon for them, and even if they died for many years, their flesh would not rot.


    It was easy to understand why countless strong body practitioners rushed over in search of him.


    His expression was cold as he ordered in a serious tone: "Move some big trees over and cover the entrance."


    Then he said coldly, "Send people to seal this place off. Kill anyone who comes close to this cave. Also, do not leak out any news."


    "As you wish." Rest assured young master, the soldiers here are the trusted aides of our General''s House. " Ashan nodded his head heavily. He also knew that this matter was of great importance.


    If this piece of news were to leak out, their Azure Silver Country would be doomed to eternal damnation. If the Giant Spirit Sect were to know that one of their ancestors had been suppressed here, how could they not be enraged?


    A large group of soldiers began to move again, and at Ashan''s urging they began to work. They had to make the field perfect before dawn.


    Then, Lin Qi stared at the cave in front of him for a while. In the end, all he could do was sigh. This matter was more serious than he had expected, and if this news were to leak out, the consequences would be dire. Not only would the Giant Spirit Sect be enraged, but even the other sects would openly interfere.


    By that time, their Lin Family would definitely become cannon fodder.


    No wonder this brat Liang didn''t hesitate to drag his heavily injured body into his room. This matter was extremely serious, and it was very easy for it to cause the entire world to shake.

 C35

    The sun broke through the dark blue sky like a burning wheel and crashed into the horizon, a golden light shining through the treetops and onto the grass of the wilderness.


    At this moment, under the order of Lin Xing, the group of soldiers had already seamlessly laid out the cave''s surroundings without leaving a single trace of manmade evidence. They began to stop their work and were about to return home.


    Lin Qi stood upright on the ground and looked out into the distance. There was a black mountain range at the end of his line of sight. The place was lifeless and it was shrouded in a black mist.


    That was Black Wind Mountain.


    After which, he retracted his gaze and turned his attention to the entrance of the cave. He had already come up with an answer.


    Looking at the interior of the cave, it was obvious that it came from the underworld faction. In his mind, he immediately thought of Black Wind Mountain. Was there a connection between the two?


    After a long time, he finally shook his head. No matter what kind of powerful existence or seal was in the abyss, it was not something he could control.


    "Let''s go back to the manor." He called for Ashan and the hundred soldiers to ride back to the capital on their horses.


    Two days later, the capital city was bustling with noise and excitement. The streets were crowded with people, and all of them were converging towards one place. Because today was the day of the fairy''s sermon, it attracted countless onlookers.


    On a high platform, a little kid was standing in front of a crowd. His white clothes fluttered in the air without any wind, and his figure gave off an incomparably tall illusion.


    Below the stage, there was a sea of people, with shouts rising and falling one after another. Most people looked at them with dazed eyes.


    The boy was standing upright with an absolutely beautiful and unparalleled figure. His eyes were empty and deep, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, causing all the girls below the stage to lose their luster and feel ashamed of their inferiority.


    Even though she was a Taoist, she did not say a single word. Her graceful figure danced gently, her movements slow and light. However, every movement seemed to be in harmony with the heaven and earth, natural and natural.


    In the front row below stood a group of young people, the Yin Valley Spirit and Yun Chi were standing there. These people were all unrivalled geniuses among the younger generation. Not only that, but their statuses were high as well. Their strength caused some of the older generation members to feel that they were inferior, so it was only natural for them to stand at the very front.


    "Liu Fengyu ¡­"


    On a tall building, Lin Xing stood by the window with Ah Shan beside him, looking down at the scene before him.


    On the side of the Yin Valley''s spirit, there was a young man standing proudly. He was about the same age as Lin Xing, with beautiful facial features and a blade of grass in his mouth. He appeared somewhat playful.


    He stared at the boy with a fanatical look in his eyes. He had been staring intently the entire time and a proud look appeared on his face. Except for the boy, who could arouse his interest, he was indifferent to everything around him.


    Lin Xing naturally recognized this young man. He was one of the chief disciples of the Heaven Ascension Sect and had a natural talent. Two years ago, he had already stepped into the pinnacle of the Dao.


    Because Lin Xing was similar in age to Liu Fengyu, Lin Xing was the youngest prodigy in the Heavenly Ascension Sect at the time. He had always been ahead of Liu Fengyu, and the two of them had fought three times and had always ended up victorious, so Lin Xing had a very deep impression of him.


    Speaking of Liu Fengyu, his personality was very similar to Gu Yuan. He had never accepted defeat and had been defeated time and time again. Every time he came knocking on his door, Lin Xing would feel greatly embarrassed.


    "Young master, we just investigated the identity of the person standing next to Yun Chi. His name is Ju Li Si, he''s from the Giant Spirit Sect." Ah Shan looked down and softly said to Lin Xing.


    "It''s him ¡­"


    That person''s clothes fluttered in the wind, and his expression was indifferent. From the beginning to the end, he did not even blink his eyes, and his appearance was extremely beautiful. The corner of his mouth revealed a faint smile, and the more he looked, the more intoxicating he became.


    The Giant Spirit Sect disciple, He Chen, who had long since been following behind Kid Leng and acting as his escort, stood respectfully behind Giant Sharp. He didn''t dare to make any overstepping movements.


    Even though Lin Qi had never seen him before, his name had long since resounded through the ears. He was someone that the upper echelons of the Giant Spirit Sect considered to be the future pillar of support.


    It was said that Giant Creed was born with four elephants and had heaven-defying abilities. It had always been hidden by the Giant Spirit Sect. Only after reaching large success in the physique could Giant Spirit Sect allow it to leave the mountain.


    Speaking of which, the cultivation of the Giant Spirit Sect was completely different from the cultivation techniques of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. There was no reason for him to listen to them.


    In fact, listening to the fairy talk about the Dao was only a secondary matter. Little Liang came from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, a sect that was more powerful than the combined forces of the two great sects, the Heaven Ascension Sect and the Giant Spirit Sect.


    Therefore, the higher ups of the Giant Spirit Sect had sent out their capable general, Jiran. After all, he and Little Liang had the possibility of becoming deities in the future. As the saying goes, heroes cherish each other, so the fairy shouldn''t be indifferent.


    Yun Chi lightly stepped forward and closed the distance between him and the Giant Spirit. He said, "Brother Giant, you sure are bold."


    "Why do you say that?" There was a faint smile at the corner of Giant Spirit''s mouth as he turned to look at him.


    "I''ve heard that the Giant Spirit Sect and the Skysplit Sect are at war with each other. Aren''t you afraid that the people of the Skysplit Sect will be angered and hold you hostage if you walk in here alone?" At the same time, he indistinctly glanced at the Yin Valley Spirit and Liu Fengyu.


    Although his voice was low, with the Yin Valley''s spirit and Liu Fengyu''s cultivation, they could hear it clearly. It immediately caused their expressions to become unnatural. This was blatantly sowing discord.


    "Are you underestimating my worth?" Giant Thins blew his hair on his forehead.


    How could I dare to underestimate you? If the Sky-rising Sect dares to touch a single hair on your head, I believe that your sect will definitely erupt in a monstrous rage. Yun Chi said.


    The Yin Valley genie''s expression changed for a while. She turned her head to look at Yun Chi with eyes that seemed to be able to spit out flames. However, Liu Fengyu was still quite calm. What was the point of being sharp tongue-tied? The fairy was preaching. He didn''t want to cause trouble.


    "Alright, don''t say too much. You don''t have to worry about my safety." Giant Reed was also a little disgusted with Yun Que''s words as he said in a low voice.


    He originally wanted to please Ju Xin Si, but he did not want to make a mistake, so he immediately said: "I have always admired Big Brother''s character, but today, I see that he really has the potential and temperament of a Great Master, which makes me admire you. "Before we leave the mountain, the elders of the Yin Master School have warned me repeatedly that if I meet brother Ju, we must not be enemies."


    "Oh? How do you want to make friends with me? " Giant Reed smiled faintly. He was very pleased with Yun Chi''s flattery.


    "I want to go to the two sects'' battlefields and cheer for your sect." Yun Chi said.


    "Are you trying to befriend me?" Your sect mainly cultivates the soul. Going to the front of the battle is not just to help our Giant Spirit Sect, is this your sincerity? " The corner of Giant Lees'' mouth curved into a smile.


    Yun Chi said, "That''s right, I am also going for the sake of the undead, but I can promise you that I will only train the spirits from the Sky Sect."


    Giant thought for a moment and nodded: "I can promise you that."


    "I hope that we can cooperate happily." Under Yun Chi''s joyful gaze, Giant Remains spoke up with a smile.


    Although Yun Chi had his own little scheme, it was of no harm to the Giant Spirit Sect. Furthermore, it had helped them greatly, so why wouldn''t he do it? There was no reason not to.


    "Then we''ll meet on the battlefield."


    He had wanted to go to that battlefield for a long time, but the two sects had made an agreement that the disciples of the two sects were not allowed to participate in the battle, so he couldn''t carry out his ambition.


    At this moment, Giant Lees was the first to break the agreement, allowing Yun Chi to intervene. There was nothing much to say.


    While everyone was thinking, the boy Cool Breeze stopped his actions and let the curtain down on his lecture. Many people''s spirits were greatly shaken as they profited greatly.


    Giant Reese was the first to slowly walk up to the stage, as if he wanted to "chat" with the fairy.


    On the tall building, Lin Xing greeted Ah Shan and then went back home. He was not concerned about what was going to happen next.


    As soon as he entered, he saw a soldier rushing over, holding a letter in his hand. He passed it to Lin Xing and said, "Young Master, it''s an emergency military report from the frontline."


    Lin Zhi''s body trembled. He immediately opened the letter and read it. As his eyes moved downwards, his face gradually became gloomy.


    "Is Gu Yuan in the room?" Lin Qi asked the armored soldier in a loud voice.


    "Here." the soldier replied.


    After receiving his reply, Lin Xing dashed towards Gu Yuan''s room with an anxious expression on his face.


    "Young Master, what happened?" On the way, Ashan couldn''t help but ask.


    "The front line was defeated miserably. Father and the millions of soldiers of the Heaven Ascension Sect were trapped. The letter said that without any reinforcements, there is a possibility of the entire army being annihilated."


    (Today, I''m too tired to eat anymore, so my pace quickens.)

 C36

    Inside the room, Lin Xing and Gu Yuan sat across from each other with their gazes locked. Both of them had a slightly gloomy expression on their faces. After Gu Yuan finished reading the letter, his heart had also sunk to the bottom. Ashan stood beside Lin Xing quietly.


    "How many men do you have?" Time was of the essence, and Lin Xing did not even have the time to talk nonsense. He immediately went straight to the point.


    Gu Yuan''s expression shook. He was stunned before he said in distress, "Less than fifty thousand. All of them are stationed at the outskirts of Black Wind Mountain."


    "Fifty thousand? "Enough, hand these soldiers over to me. I want to go to the front and rescue my father." Lin Xing took a deep breath and said.


    "But ¡­" If he sent away those soldiers and horses, Black Wind Mountain would be even more fearless. I''ll go with you, just the two of us. Even if I have to go through fire and water, I must save my foster father. " Gu Yuan said solemnly. His expression was one of righteousness, as if he was looking at his own death.


    Lin Xing laughed, and stared at him: "The fifty thousand troops guarding Black Wind Mountain is actually just a decoration, if Black Wind Mountain really wants to massacre my Azure Silver Country, then that fifty thousand soldiers is impossible to stop. Whether or not they guard Black Wind Mountain, it doesn''t matter. It''s impossible for us to save father with just the two of us. " Lin Xing said frankly.


    "Therefore, I need those fifty thousand men and horses."


    Gu Yuan smiled bitterly. He did not refute what Lin Xing said. Fifty thousand soldiers and horses were just for show. Moreover, the Nether Sect cultivates baleful qi. The only place that can fit them is Black Wind Mountain, so it wouldn''t do much to occupy the other places.


    "Give me the command medallion. You should stay in the manor to prevent others from making trouble." Lin Xing pouted and said.


    "Foster father has treated me like a mountain, I can''t repay you even if I go through thick and thin. I''ll go, you stay." You are the only son of my foster father. " Lin Xing said with a sonorous and powerful voice.


    Lin Qi shook his head and said firmly, "No need to fight, I''ll go." If I stay, it will only be more dangerous. If you leave, some people will become even more arrogant. "


    Hearing this, Gu Yuan was speechless. What Lin Xing said made sense. After all, he had the strength of the Dao Division, so it wouldn''t be a problem for him to hold the general''s estate. If he were to leave, with Lin Xing''s strength, it would be difficult to suppress him.


    After all, that fairy hadn''t left yet.


    After struggling for a moment, he finally let out a deep sigh. He took out a golden command medallion and placed it on the table. He looked into Lin Xing''s eyes and said, "You must bring my foster father and the six elephants back safely."


    "Mm, don''t worry, I won''t let you down." Lin Qi''s eyes flashed like lightning as he confidently said this. However, his heart was a mess. A mere fifty thousand men and horses was enough to shake millions of soldiers? That was a very slim chance of that.


    "Ah Shan, go to the camp outside of Black Wind Mountain immediately with the order badge and have them leave their camp. After four hours, order the generals to release all their troops. Whoever dares to disobey will be punished by military law." Lin Xing turned to Ah Shan and said in a serious tone.


    "Yes." Ah Shan picked up the plate on the table and left. After he left, he brought along a few guards and headed straight for Black Wind Mountain.


    Ah Shan was the first to leave. Lin Xing had stayed behind to deal with Gu Yuan''s matters at the General''s Estate. With his life on the line, he didn''t know how long it would take. There were some things that he had to tell Gu Yuan about.


    When Gu Yuan saw the densely packed numbers on the bills, his jaw dropped in shock. All this time, he had been in seclusion, completely ignoring all the matters in the mansion. If it wasn''t for Lin Xing who took the initiative to tell him, he really wouldn''t have known that the mansion already had so much stock in it. He sincerely gave Lin Xing a thumbs up.


    Lin Qi rubbed his nose and bitterly smiled. Being able to obtain Gu Yuan''s praise was truly not easy.


    Four hours later, in a big tent in the military camp outside Black Wind Mountain.


    Lin Qi was sitting high up in a large bronze chair. There were many generals standing in two rows below. They raised their heads to look at him, then looked at each other in dismay.


    "Young master, everything is ready. We can set off at any time." Ashan and the group of border guards stood on either side of him.


    Lin Qi''s eyes lingered on the commanders for a second before he asked Ah Shan, "Have you released all of your men?" Has anyone violated the military order? "


    "Yes." Ashan called out, and a group of soldiers came into the tent with a general and seven or eight soldiers behind them.


    The general who was forced into the room, upon seeing Lin Xing sitting at the top seat, immediately started cursing loudly, feeling disgraced in front of his comrades.


    "Little brat, when I went to war on the battlefield, you were still wearing your underpants. How dare you tie me up? I''m not done with you, I don''t even have the chance to work for you."


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold like a poisonous snake''s. He stood up and said, "A while ago, I passed by this place and told the two soldiers to tell them that the army has been abolished. I will come personally to inspect this place." "Today, I will have Ah Shan come again to warn you, but you all still won''t listen to my orders. It would be strange if a general like you could win this war."


    "Slash!"


    As soon as these words were uttered, all the generals turned pale with fright. One by one, they came out to give their advice.


    "General, please don''t. Although Wang Shang has violated the military order, he shouldn''t be killed for such a small matter." Please reconsider. "


    "That''s right, Wang Shang was someone who had followed the great general and sold his life through blood and sweat. General, please think twice before you put in any effort."


    Hearing the word ''behead'', Wang Shang''s face changed again and again, but when he saw that the generals were all pleading for mercy, he immediately burst out laughing.


    "Haha, I don''t believe a brat like you would dare to kill me."


    "If there is merit, there must be reward. If there is punishment, there must be punishment. How can the two of them speak the same words?" What are you doing? Chop. " Lin Xing shouted.


    The soldier standing next to Wang Shang fell to the ground, blood splattering three meters away. A bloody head rolled on the ground.


    His eyes were wide open, and even at the moment of his death, he did not understand what was going on.


    This was too fierce. The generals paled, but before they could recover their senses, they heard Lin Xing say, "Who are these soldiers under?"


    "General, this is one of my men." The two generals fought their way out.


    "The same punishment, kill!" Without a doubt, there was no room for negotiation.


    In that moment, everyone was overwhelmed with shock. Was he taking the wrong medicine? It was chilling to kill three generals before the army had even begun to move. Many of the generals who had been unambiguous in their battles had already begun to retreat. How could they continue to fight?


    Of course, there were also a few people who admired Lin Qi''s boldness and decisiveness. He was decisive in killing, not holding back in the slightest, possessing the demeanor and temperament of a great general.


    "General, please reconsider. He Lei, Ming Yi, the two generals have rendered outstanding merits in battle. If we were to kill them as well, I''m afraid the morale of the army would waver."


    "General, you can''t do this. The situation isn''t certain yet. Behead the general first, this is an ominous sign."


    This time, the group of officers directly knelt on the ground to plead for mercy, and it could be seen that He Lei and Ming Yi had established connections within the army.


    "Young master, this is the time to hire people. How about letting the two generals make up for it?" Ashan stood to the side, also pleading for them.


    Ripples appeared in Lin Qi''s cold eyes. He said with a dignified expression, "I can spare the lives of you two and your subordinates. I''ll give you two a chance to earn merits. However, this will not happen for the next time."


    "Thank you for your mercy, General." The two of them knelt on the ground with dark expressions on their faces. They were not afraid of death and were not willing to die for no reason at all. Even if they had to die on the battlefield, they had to die standing.


    Now that things had progressed to this point, only then did many people understand the terror of Lin Qi. In a short moment, he had completely submissive towards this group of generals, vowing to serve them with their lives.

 C37

    When the generals finally understood the target and the enemy''s strength, their faces paled.


    He had challenged the several million strong army of the Giant Spirit Sect with fifty thousand men and a hundred times the number of enemies. They suspected that this young man had gone crazy. This wasn''t a war, this was a suicide.


    However, orders were like mountains, and they were going to rescue the general. They had to go and do it even if they had to risk their lives. After coming to this conclusion, the generals were relieved of their worries.


    The Azure Silver Country was still the closest to the battlefield, only 20,000 miles away. Lin Xing led his great army day and night as he dashed without stopping. Occasionally, he would stop to rest for a few hours before continuing his journey.


    After half a month, the great army arrived at a mountain range. Everyone was exhausted, so tired that they no longer had the strength to walk. Their morale was low, and they were like a group of defeated soldiers.


    "General, let''s stop and rest. The soldiers won''t be able to last long after running for so many days." The battle had not even begun, and he was already exhausted. If he were to rush to the front line, he would not be at the mercy of others even in this state.


    His name was Hu Jue, and he held the highest position in the army camp of Black Wind Mountain. He had followed Lin Shen to many battlefields, and his prestige in the army was outstanding.


    "Then let''s rest for the night. We''ll travel at dawn." Looking up at the sky full of stars, Lin Qi said lightly.


    The soldier shouted three times and all the soldiers collapsed to the ground. They were exhausted like a bear; some even fell asleep with thunderous snores.


    "General, aren''t we going to rescue the great general?" "Why do you seem to have taken a detour on this path? From the map, it''s clear that you''ve taken a detour." Hu Jue spread out a map on the horse''s back and observed the surrounding terrain with a puzzled look on his face.


    Upon hearing this, the other high-ranking officers also looked at Lin Xing with puzzled expressions. Even Ah Shan was confused.


    Lin Xing laughed as he unsheathed his sword and pointed it at the map. "Our goal this time is to save the Great General, but did I say that we would directly clash with the million strong army of the Giant Spirit Sect?" I''m going to take you all here. "


    Everyone''s eyes focused on the tip of the sword as their expressions suddenly changed, becoming incomparably pale.


    Crazy, this arrogant brat must be crazy. This was because the location the tip of the sword had pointed to was already deep within the territory of the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "General, you can''t. Our troops are simply courting death by going deep into the heart of the Giant Spirit. We can''t even bring up a single flower. There are at least a hundred cities there."


    Someone immediately jumped out and started shouting. This was more dangerous than directly clashing with the million strong army of the Giant Spirit Sect. Even if they couldn''t beat it, they could still run and still have the chance to escape. Once they entered the Giant Spirit''s territory, all avenues of retreat would be sealed. At that time, no one would be able to survive.


    "Our Sky Sect and the Giant Spirit Sect have always been on the same side at the front line. We can''t do anything to each other, but we lost so quickly? "Why is that?" Lin Xing looked at them and asked.


    The generals seemed to be deep in thought. For a moment, none of them answered as they waited for the next part.


    "I''m guessing that the army that the Giant Spirit Sect is garrisoned in is out in full strength, which is why we, the Sky Sect, have suffered such a crushing defeat. But now, this place must be empty, even if there are people left to defend, it won''t be too many. Lin Qi smiled confidently, full of confidence.


    All the generals nodded with shining eyes, as if what he said made sense. It seemed dangerous, but it was the most effective way to save the army.


    "If the Giant Spirit Army withdraws and comes back to our aid, we will return the same way we came. I guarantee that you will be safe and sound." Lin Xing fed them another tranquilizer.


    "At the command of the general." All the generals bowed in unison, their expressions serious.


    Lin Xing raised his head to look at Haoyue, his expression grave, without sadness or joy, and said: "As soon as our troops arrive here, we will immediately start the battle."


    Two days later, an ancient city with a city wall that was over ten zhang tall was standing in front of them. It looked ancient and simple, and after a long while, the atmosphere became heavier and heavier, blocking Lin Xing and his army''s path.


    On the city wall, figures could be vaguely seen. Banners were everywhere, the battle drums were roaring, and armors were flying everywhere.


    "This ¡­"


    The generals were stunned. No matter how they looked at it, it didn''t look like an empty city.


    "General, let''s retreat. If we are discovered, it will be too late." A high-ranking officer said slowly.


    "Hmm?" Lin Xing glared at him and viciously said, "If anyone dares to say that they want to retreat again, kill them!"


    For a moment, all the generals shrank back, not daring to speak anymore.


    He turned his head and looked at the city ahead of him. After a while, he said confidently, "I told you, all the cities here are empty. He Lei, Ming Yi, two generals, this battle will be your chance to gain merits. Charge, if you can''t take this city, you can meet me head on. "


    Then, the two of them took the lead, disregarding death and leading their subordinates to charge towards the city ahead to kill.


    However, the war had just begun, and everyone was dazzled by what they saw.


    The wall was ten meters tall, and even the most ordinary of soldiers had the strength of a carrier. It was easy for them to climb up, but they did not encounter the enemy''s encirclement.


    "General, it''s really an empty city." The generals were ecstatic. They could not help but admire Lin Xing''s'' conjectures''.


    The line of soldiers on the city wall was killed, then it was cut off. No one came up to support them. Ming Yi and He Lei easily attacked the city wall.


    He Lei stood on top of the city gate tower and excitedly laughed out loud. Holding a wooden head in his hand, he threw it down from the city gate and rolled in front of Lin Qi''s horse''s hooves.


    "General, the people from the Giant Spirit Sect are actually using a bunch of wooden puppets to make up the numbers. Do they really think we''re blind?" He Lei laughed loudly.


    "Wooden people?" Lin Qi looked over to where the sound had come from. The wooden puppets had all been covered in armor. If they hadn''t been exposed when the fight started, it would have been impossible to tell that they were fake.


    Lin Qi pinched the flesh on his waist and muttered to himself, "This commander of the Giant Spirit Sect is truly not simple."


    He raised his head and said to Ming Yi and He Lei, "Generals, I order you to be the vanguard and continue attacking the city."


    Although this area had over a hundred cities, because it was used as a base for the army, it was rare for civilians to live here. The number of people left in the city was very few, at most there were two or three guards.


    "General, let''s enter the city." Hu Jue asked for instructions.


    Lin Xing shook his head, "No, order the army to set up camp outside the city. No one is allowed to leave, send scouts at the same time to investigate the situation on the battlefield. If there is any movement, report back to me immediately."

 C38

    He Lei, Ming Yi, and the two generals were at the vanguard. Each of them led their subordinates and marched forward separately.


    At the same time, the Giant Spirit Sect army that was encircling and annihilating the Deities Templar actually showed signs of retreating, and all of their troops began to withdraw.


    The commander of the Giant Spirit Sect had already received the news that the city had been breached. If they did not retreat now, they might be bandaged. Once their escape route was cut off, it would be difficult to retreat.


    He made a prompt decision and the entire army roared in dissatisfaction as they retreated back into the army.


    Also, they didn''t know how many reinforcements the Dancing Sky Sect had in the rear. Just in case, they had no choice but to give up this opportunity to attack the Dancing Sky Sect and withdraw.


    Lin Qi was sitting in the tent, and when he heard the scout''s report, his expression did not change much. Everything was within his expectations.


    "General, let''s leave as well. If we were to be run into by the great army of the Giant Spirit Sect, we won''t have enough men to fill the gaps between our teeth." Hu Jue hurriedly asked for instructions.


    He pointed the tip of his sword towards one of them, then raised his head and said to him, "Command Ming Yi and He Lei to immediately withdraw, lead everyone to this mountain range and meet with me. We will go first."


    "Here? This is the place where the Giant Spirit army can return to. " The faces of the generals and Ah Shan were filled with shock. Wasn''t this equivalent to committing suicide?


    "I know, you don''t need to ask. Order the army to move out." Lin Qi said in a domineering tone, not daring to resist.


    Although the generals felt indignant, they could only follow his orders and each ordered their subordinates to set out.


    Two days later, Lin Xing led his army to a precipitous mountain range. This place was lush and verdant, filled with lush vegetation. The valley below was wide and spacious, with magnificent and steep cliffs on both sides.


    "We''re right here, let''s make an ambush."


    The moment the words left his mouth, everyone''s skin began to crack.


    Fifty thousand soldiers and horses for an ambush of five million? This young man had most likely lost his mind.


    Even if there were five million pigs, it would still be enough for them to kill for ten to fifteen days even if they stood still.


    In fact, when they first agreed to rescue the great general, weren''t they going mad as well? Since they had already gone mad once, they might as well go crazy once more. For a moment, everyone''s blood boiled and their hearts surged.


    "General, what do you think we should do?" Ming Yi and He Lei had successfully met and they asked excitedly without a shred of cowardice.


    Lin Qi exhaled and drew his sword. Pointing it at the valley below, he said, "Hide yourself first. Wait until the enemy troops leave the valley. Chase after them. Chase after them. Chase after them."


    "General, why is it like this? We can kill them both at once, making it difficult for the enemy to even look at the front and back. What a mess!" Hu Jue frowned.


    Lin Qi smiled lightly, rolled his eyes and said, "I think you''re crazy. I never said we could annihilate all of the enemy''s five million troops, do you think we have the ability to do that?" "Impossible."


    He continued, "This valley may be big, but it shouldn''t be a problem for it to accommodate the five million soldiers. If we block their exit, they will fight to the death for us. Even if we had an army of a million as well, we wouldn''t be able to stop them. Everyone has the desire to live, and sergeants are no exception. "


    "The general is truly brilliant. Even if we chase after him to create some momentum and cause the enemy to fall into chaos, they wouldn''t dare to retaliate." The generals sighed in admiration. Ever since they had dispatched their troops, Lin Xing''s use of troops had exceeded everyone''s expectations, and it could be said that he was the master of the art.


    Lin Xing didn''t mind and smiled faintly.


    Lin Qi ordered his army to hide in the dense forest on the mountain. They hid themselves very well and the enemy did not discover them.


    However, they were dazzled by the scene before them. Countless figures poured into the valley. They could not see the end of it. After walking for half a day, it still had not ended.


    Finally, a fault appeared at the outer edge of the valley, and a group of old and weak soldiers slowly walked behind. Due to their slow movements, they were left far behind the army.


    Seeing this scene, how could Lin Xing still need to give the order? Fifty thousand men charged out of the forest in an instant, bringing with them monstrous cheers and dauntless charges into the valley.


    "Kill ah ¡­"


    Suddenly, the flags in the forest stood up one by one, and the battle drums in the connected mountain range were like thunder as they rumbled and shook the sky.


    "The enemy is here. Run!"


    Soldiers could be seen everywhere on the mountains and fields. Immediately, the Giant Spirit Army was thrown into chaos. They threw away their weapons and started running for their lives.


    The old and weak troops from the rear of the palace were truly putting them up. Before they even started fighting, they were already rushing forward, making the great army even more chaotic.


    It turned into a huge mess, and countless people were trampled to death.


    Meanwhile, Lin Xing''s fifty thousand men and horses were fighting in the back with great delight, causing the Giant Spirit Army to lose their armours and fall to the ground. As soon as they heard the news, their expressions changed as they rushed forward.


    In the valley, the formation of the five million strong army was too long. It was difficult for the commander to issue an effective order and send it into the ears of every soldier.


    But soon, a row of soldiers raised their shields and blocked Hu Jue''s path. After a short period of confusion, the Giant Spirit team was finally able to form an effective defense.


    Under the effective command, the soldiers holding the shields did not retaliate. They only defended and retreated at the same time.


    In the wilderness, it was hard to see just how many troops and horses the enemy had, so the Giant Spirit side did not dare to continue fighting. Moreover, if the Deities Templar followed up with the news, they would be in danger.


    Lin Xing raised his sword high up in the air and slashed downwards. The fifty thousand strong army rushed up, especially the generals. They took the lead, fearless and fearless. Those shield soldiers were instantly smashed into smithereens before they went on a mad slaughter.


    The generals laughed excitedly. It had been a long time since they had felt so joyful. The Giant Spirit Army that was known for its valiant military prowess was emitting a bloodcurdling scream as they drank their blood. Just thinking about it made their blood boil with pride.


    "Ah Shan, go and give the order that Hu Jue and the others will stop when they see it. Do not keep fighting. If the enemy comes back to his senses and retaliates, we will not be able to hold on." Lin Xing stared at the battlefield in front of him as he spoke to Ah Shan who was standing beside him.


    "Understood." Ashan rode down the hill.


    Hu Jue and the others had already fallen into a maddening massacre. This kind of situation was not a good omen, as it was very easy for them to be surrounded and annihilated by the enemy forces.

    The army was engaged in a chaotic battle. The drums were beating loudly. Hu Jue led the fifty thousand elite soldiers across the valley to kill them. They were vaguely surrounded by the enemy forces. However, Hu Jue and the other generals were not afraid.


    The valley was narrow, even though there were five million giant spirits, they could not be spread out horizontally, and it was very difficult to form an effective bandage. Furthermore, the giant spirit army relied on their strong physiques and each of them had the strength of a ferocious beast, they did not carry armor, did not carry weapons, and were bare-handed.


    The weapons of the Black Wind Army were all forged by the withering thunder leaves, they were extremely sharp and could slice through iron like mud. No matter how tough the body was, it could not withstand it.


    After Lin Xing bought the Withered Leaf, he donated it to the army of the Azure Silver Country for free. He ordered them to forge it overnight in case of a rainy day. He had already known that it would come in handy one day.


    Ashan rushed to the front lines and ordered Hu Jue to wait for the general to return to the army immediately, otherwise, he would be executed immediately.


    Although they were fierce and had defeated the Giant Spirit army, the enemy armies had a large number of enemies and this was a result of being caught off guard. If the enemy forces came back to their senses and began a series of counterattacks, it would be very difficult for them to defend against them.


    Hu Jue''s brain expanded as he fell into a crazed state along with a group of high-ranking officers, including 50,000 soldiers. All of them were not satisfied with the battle yet, as they were still not satisfied with it.


    Turning his head to look behind him, he saw Lin Xing standing on top of a mountain peak, coldly staring at them. Hu Jue''s eyelids jumped as he thought of the decisive scene of his killing. He roared in frustration and ordered the troops to retreat.


    When the Giant Spirit army saw them retreating, they immediately chased after them. But not long after, the battle drums sounded from behind them and all of them stopped. The commander of the army gave the order to call for reinforcements.


    "General, our army has won a great victory. We have beheaded 300,000 soldiers, but our army only has 300 casualties. This kind of battle record is almost never seen on the frontline of the battlefield."


    Hu Jue rode over on his horse, followed by a huge army. Dust flew everywhere, and the ground was slightly shaking.


    The generals walked up to Lin Qi, their expressions becoming respectful. Under the command of this unassuming young man, the fifty thousand strong army had achieved an unimaginable victory.


    Looking back down the valley and looking at the mountain of corpses, all the generals were numb to it. The 50 thousand strong army had lost 5 million soldiers, no one would believe it even if word spread out.


    "I saw it all." Lin Qi sheathed his longsword, his expression unperturbed as he revealed an unswerving determination.


    "General, why did you give the order to withdraw? If our army continues to pursue and kill them, we will definitely cut down another three hundred thousand. " Hu Jue and the group of generals roared in indignation.


    This kind of opportunity and terrain was extremely rare. Many people had never encountered one in their entire lives, so they were naturally unwilling to retreat.


    Lin Qi''s expression did not change, and he did not answer him. Instead, he calmly looked down the valley.


    Rumble ¡­


    A loud noise similar to an earthquake was heard. The soldiers looked over and saw the steep mountains on both sides of the valley had been pushed down by the Giant Spirit Army, raising dust and dirt into the sky.


    What replaced it was a large group of Giant Spirit Legion standing on top of the pile of ruins. There were at least a million of them, eyeing Lin Xing and the others like a tiger eyeing its prey.


    The soldiers were aghast, fear written all over their faces. If it wasn''t for Lin Xing giving the order earlier, they would have been surrounded by enemies already. At that time, no one would be able to escape from the fifty thousand man army.


    "Did you see that?" Giant Spirit''s 5 million strong army moved mountains and filled the sea, as if they were walking on flat ground. We should stop at a good point when we have occupied the terrain and continue to fight. The consequences are unthinkable. " Lin Qi said to the rest of the soldiers as he lifted his eyelids.


    The soldiers all nodded as their hearts throbbed with excitement. They had always been cautious and never risked anything along the way, but at this last moment, they lost their minds and fell into a frenzied battle, forgetting all the dangers. If not for Lin Qi''s warning, he would have already fallen into despair.


    In his heart, regardless of whether it was his feelings for Lin Qi or his admiration for him, they soared.


    Instead of choosing to attack out of anger, the Giant Spirit army pushed down the surrounding mountains, and instead ordered the retreat. Lin Xing could see that the Giant Spirit Commander was very calm, and did not panic in the face of danger.


    "Let''s retreat as well." Lin Xing ordered.


    "General, should we go to meet up with the army of the Heaven Ascension Sect or head back to the Azure Silver Country?" Hu Jue asked.


    Lin Qi pondered for a moment. This was indeed a difficult question. Soon after, he smiled and said, "I believe the Heaven Seeking Sect''s Commander has already led his army to this place. Why don''t we go meet him?"


    Ashan held his head and asked, "Young Master, what if the Head Commander of the Sky Ascension Sect doesn''t chase after us?"


    The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched. With a strange expression, he replied, "That person could be a useless person."


    "Retreat."


    Then, a group of people led by Lin Xing withdrew their troops and headed towards the campsite of the Sky Sect.


    After about an hour, the army arrived at an open area. Not far in front of them was a dense group of black shadows, spreading out horizontally. It was the army of the Sky Sect.


    The march was slow and cautious. They had walked only twenty miles in half a day, afraid that the Giant Spirit Legion would set up an ambush. Even if they led an army of a million soldiers, they were still afraid to become rats.


    Seeing this scene, Lin Qi couldn''t help but secretly shake his head. At such a speed, the Giant Spirit Sect had long since run away. Gradually closing the distance between them and Lin Shen, the row of generals standing at the front swept their eyes over them. They soon discovered Lin Shen''s figure, and their faces finally revealed a look of joy.


    This time, they were going far, far away. What was the purpose of this long journey? Wasn''t it all to save his father? As for the army of the Skysplit Sect, Lin Xing couldn''t care less. Even if they were all wiped out, what did it have to do with him? Seeing that his father was unharmed, the heavy burden in his heart finally dropped.


    When Lin Shen saw him, her expression turned into one of shock. Why did the Giant Spirit Army suddenly retreat without any reason? The answer had already been revealed.


    A few days ago, I heard that there were some strange movements at the rear of the Giant Spirit Legion. A group of elites ambushed the rear of the Giant Spirit Army.


    At this moment, his jaw dropped. He couldn''t believe that it was actually his own son.


    "Xing''er ¡­" Lin Shen, as a father, was not excited by Lin Qi''s achievements. Instead, he quickly moved forward and inspected Lin Qi''s body, checking to see if he was injured.


    "Father, it seems I''m not late." Lin Qi said with his eyes closed. There was always a issue in his heart that was difficult to resolve, and he still needed more time and energy to resolve it.


    Lin Qi sighed deeply. It was hard to understand in his heart. His face turned pleased as he said, "Not too late, not too late. It''s good that you''re fine."


    Then, with a cold expression, he turned hostile and said, "Without the army''s order, who allowed you to infiltrate the rear of the Giant Spirit Army?" "Hmph, brat, you really don''t know your limits."


    Lin Xing was speechless. Next to him, Ah Shan, Hu Jue, and the other old generals who had accompanied him on his campaign were also stunned. However, when they thought of the fact that Lin Xing was his son, they felt relieved.


    "General Lin, you''ve really given birth to a good son." A voice came from the Sky Sect army. Although it was praise, it was a bit sarcastic.


    Looking towards the source of the voice, it was a middle-aged man. He wore fiery-red armor, and on the surface, there was a drawing of a Red Luan.


    "Back in the days, those mysterious talents, those trash of the ancient god, after being immersed in it for these two years, didn''t he just follow General Lin to secretly study military strategies at home? Is he planning to take over your shift? " The red armored middle-aged man said with a strange tone.

 C40

    "Lu Kaiji, my son took the risk and went straight for the Yellow Dragon. Even if he is unable to step into the Heaven Smiting Stage for the rest of his life, this battle will still be recorded in the annals of history, and his name will live through the ages. " Lin Shen looked at the middle-aged man, his eyes were like daggers, the two of them were a bit uncoordinated.


    Lu Kaiji gave a mocking smile and said, "It went into the annals of history? Famous throughout the ages? "General Lin sure knows how to joke around. Your son is just a blind cat who met with a dead rat. This kind of battle record is not even worth mentioning in our eyes."


    Lin Xing, Ashan, Hu Jue, and the others'' faces instantly darkened when they heard this. They had taken the risk of attacking and luring away the five million strong army of the Giant Spirit Sect, but in the end, wasn''t it worth mentioning? His heart turned cold.


    "Then you should go and have a look." Lin Shen harrumphed.


    Lu Kai was livid, his face flushing red. Just as he was about to open his mouth to retaliate, he was interrupted by someone beside him.


    "Since the enemy has just retreated, it''s not proper for us to fight in this place." The man''s face was stern and dignified. Sitting on the horse was like a small mountain. His physique was astonishing, and his grandeur was imposing. He was the commander of the frontline troops of the Heavenly Ascension Sect, Gan Chi.


    Lin Shen and Lu Kaiji, who had been scolded by the marshal, were immediately left speechless. They glared at each other and no longer spoke.


    Qian Que looked at Lin Xing with calm eyes and said, "Since you have accomplished a great deed, I will report it to the Elders Guild. As for the reward, it will be decided by the Elders Guild."


    Lin Qi was silent, and a chill ran down his spine. The people from the Sky Sect were always so cold-blooded.


    Ashan and Hu Jue, as well as the fifty thousand soldiers beside him, were extremely indignant. Although the journey seemed to be dangerous, it was actually dangerous. In the end, they didn''t even say a word of thanks.


    "I am not here for the reward. I have come to save my father." Lin Qi said with a gloomy face.


    "Wake up, don''t be rash." Lin Shen scolded in a low voice.


    Qian Que waved his hand and said with a smile that didn''t quite reach his eyes, "Do whatever you want. If you don''t want it, I''ll give it to the soldiers for you."


    How could the commander of a troop be so shameless? These words were spoken in a dignified manner. If the hearts of the army were to be put away, Lin Xing and Hu Jue''s popularity would be ruined.


    Lin Xing hadn''t even said he didn''t want it, but Gan Chi had already set his mind on it. If he could, then Qian Que might even be able to snatch the credit for this. His heart was like ten thousand galloping horses.


    "Now, let''s go back to the army." With Qian Que''s order in hand, he first turned his horse around and headed towards the back.


    "Hmph." Before leaving, Lu Kaiji dropped a cold, disdainful voice.


    "Wake up, are you planning to go home or do you want to go to the military camp with me?" Lin Shen asked with concern.


    Lin Xing gazed at the departing back view of the great army as he smiled, "Since you''ve already come, why don''t you take a look around."


    "That''s fine too. I heard that the country is not in a good mood right now, but when you go back, I will not feel at ease. Lead your army and follow me. You should still be the commander of these troops." He knew many of the generals, and they were all his old subordinates.


    Lin Xing nodded and then led his soldiers to leave with Lin Shen.


    Qian Que led the army and withdrew it faster than a march. In a short while, they arrived at the military camp. The place was filled with tents, bright lights, and a dense crowd of soldiers.


    The surrounding mountains were tall and steep, and although they were easy to defend and difficult to attack, once they were seized by the enemy, they would be able to look down from above and gaze upon the great earth. In the distance, there would be a flat stretch of land, and this natural barrier would be used as the last line of defense.


    If Lin Xing was the commander-in-chief, he would definitely not place all his manpower in this place. At the very least, he would have to push forward a bit. The taboo for eggs was to keep all of them in one basket.


    With his status, there was no way that he would have the qualifications to point fingers and point fingers in the army. Not to mention, Qian Que was the general of the army that was chosen by the elders of the Sky Ascension Sect.


    Arriving at the barracks, Lin Shen circled a plot of land around his legions for Lin to set up camp in.


    Night quietly approached and in the camp''s tent, all the generals were drinking and holding celebratory banquets.


    Hu Jue and the other generals were familiar with the people under Lin Shen''s command. They used wine as their spokesperson and toasted them. It was extremely lively, and after three rounds of drinking, they were all drunk.


    Although there were no rewards or achievements, the feat of surprise attacking the heart of a Giant Spirit made everyone''s blood boil. It was enough to make them proud for the rest of their lives.


    Even Lin Shen was secretly impressed. He was resourceful and decisive, and he had the demeanor of a great general. He never thought that his own son had the ability to use troops.


    When the celebratory feast was halfway through, Lin Xing had already quietly left and arrived at a big tent.


    Sitting upright on top of a wooden stake, he closed his eyes and looked inside. Within his sea of consciousness, there was a dark green space. It was one meter deep, and its background was like the starry sky.


    However, this space was filled with cracks. Some were even as thick as a person''s body. In a corner, there was a blade lying horizontally at a completely undamaged location.


    As his realm rose, the Soul Cave would also become deeper and longer. It was said that the Soul Cave of some great Honored Warriors was the size of a million li of land, and that it could no longer be called a cave, but rather, a space.


    The blade he took from Zhu Yanghua''s hands was a powerful weapon. Not only was it inconvenient for Lin Qi to carry around, it would also attract the attention of others. Thus, he kept the blade in a corner of the Soul Cave that didn''t have any cracks.


    In the past when he advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage, he naturally refined his own soul hole. But later on, after being struck by the heavenly tribulation, not only did his cultivation become crippled, his soul hole also shattered into pieces. Now, this space was the soul hole that had survived all those years ago.


    Not long ago, he had helped this brat to cool down and heal his wounds. However, he was "forced" to cultivate the Pulse Opening Method. Afterwards, he discovered that this technique unexpectedly had the effect of repairing the soul cave.


    This was no doubt a pleasant surprise, but due to the complicated situation in the capital city, he did not have the time to repair it. He also had to spend some time to increase his cultivation, so he was delayed.


    At this moment, the Soul Cave began to vibrate slightly, as if it was a real space that was vibrating slightly.


    Streams of immortal energy rushed in as the spirit cave absorbed them by itself. The Pulse Pushing Art evolved again as it worked with the immortal energy. Some of the smaller cracks even began to slowly wiggle and heal.


    The slight movement of the Pulse Pushing Technique had a significant effect, causing him to be overjoyed.


    The boundless starry sky flickered with light. That light seemed to have come from the heavens as immortal energy surged outwards. The scene was hazy and mysterious.


    The importance of the soul cave went without saying. Not only could it be used to store items, it was also the place closest to the source of the universe. One day of enlightenment here was more important than an entire year in the outside world. After the Heaven Smiting Stage, one of the Dao arts was especially important since one''s cultivation level was lower.

 C41

    After one night of repair, the soul hole had undergone a complete transformation. Many cracks had appeared on the inside of the cave, and only a few cracks were left. There was now more space for the items to be stored inside. Stars floated in the distance and filled the entire space. They were bright and dazzling.


    Right now, the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Lin Xing ordered the guards outside the camp to not let anyone disturb him. He then continued to sit on the wooden stake, twitching the Death God power inside his body.


    A mass of black air came out of his pores and spread in the surrounding space. Then, he immersed himself into the dark space where the golden mace was and pulled out a small amount of power of law.


    It was unfathomably deep, vast and boundless, and it had its own set of rules and regulations. Lin Xing was practicing the Hidden Heaven Art, his mind was almost one with the space, and he could easily control the set of rules within it.


    His left hand held the Death God Power and his right hand held the Power of Rules. He clenched his teeth and let out a muffled groan. His two arms contracted as he tried to combine the two powers.


    The Death God power and the power of laws had similar effects. He boldly tried it out and said that it couldn''t have any miraculous effects.


    A vicious and domineering aura was released. His two hands seemed as if they were holding two pieces of magnets. They were extremely repulsive and seemed to be incompatible with each other. The two types of power were like water and fire.


    He did not give up. With a loud roar, sweat flowed down his body. The two forces made contact briefly, but in the next moment, they were repelled by each other.


    Again...


    They came into contact seven or eight times consecutively, but they were all very brief. The moment they came into contact with each other, they immediately separated, unable to even press down on each other.


    However, this time was the hope of Lin Qi. The more he tried, the longer the contact time grew. Sometimes, he would even be able to persevere for a quarter of an hour.


    Lin Qi originally wanted to add some materials into the Death God''s power, but who would have thought that it would be so strenuous, and then continuously come into contact with it. The power of laws was no longer repelled, and they actually stuck together.


    Then, he quickly stored the two types of energy into his body and refined them.


    With an even more powerful energy added to his body, it naturally attracted the attention of the golden mace. The mace trembled slightly, and the sound of a cry resounded in the air. It echoed within his mind for a long time, causing him to be stupefied.


    Refining this power required a process, and if one wanted to completely control it, at the very least, it would take half a month.


    Lin Qi was not anxious at all. Half a month''s time, to him, was equivalent to the blink of an eye.


    Three days later, while Lin Xing was still refining the Death God Power that was added to the power of the Edicts, Ah Shan walked into the big account.


    Lin Qi stopped his cultivation and opened his eyes to look at Ah Shan. He had already informed Ah Shan not to disturb him unless it was something important.


    "Young master, I have good news to tell you." Ashan said happily.


    "What good news?" Lin Xing asked.


    Ashan laughed, "Last time we ambushed the Giant Spirit Legion, we cut down 300,000 people, and most of that was due to the sharp weapons of our army. Ashan laughed," Last time we ambushed the Giant Spirit Legion, we beheaded 300,000 people, and most of that was due to the sharp weapons of our army, and most of the weapons were forged from dead leaf, and we cut down iron like mud.


    As he said this, Ah Shan was grinning from ear to ear.


    Lin Qi frowned, sighed, and said in a deep voice, "This is not good news, the two great sects are fighting fiercely, and if the Sky Sect finds out, then did I sell the Thunder Withered Leaf?" They''re not going to kill me. "


    "This ¡­" Ashan was jolted awake, and his face changed.


    "Young master, with the Sky Sect''s ability to spy on us, just a little investigation and this matter will be brought to light. If we let them know, our entire General''s Estate will be finished!"


    "That''s right. I already thought of this when I gave the Thunder Withered Leaf to Uncle Li." Lin Xing said.


    "Young Master, then why are you still acting like this? Are you confident that you can escape the punishment of the Skypiercing Sect?" Ashan sighed.


    "Yes." Lin Qi nodded his head lightly.


    "What confidence?" Ashan asked hastily.


    "You''d rather die than admit it."


    "Ugh ¡­" Ashan was speechless.


    "Reporting to the general ¡­"


    Hu Jue suddenly rushed in from outside the tent. He acted in a hurry and seemed to have something urgent to report.


    "What is it?" Lin Xing frowned and asked.


    For the past few days, our army has been fighting against the Giant Spirit Army, and both sides have suffered damage, but today, the Giant Spirit Army that usually does not use weapons, actually all have large blades in their hands. Their physiques are already stronger than our Danger Legion, and now with this huge blade, our army has lost seventy to eighty thousand soldiers. Hu Jue clasped his fists.


    Lin Xing''s expression remained unchanged. Ashan, on the other hand, had an ashamed look on his face. He felt so ashamed that he wanted to find a rat hole and hide in it.


    Lin Qi muttered to himself. The speed at which the Giant Spirit Army forged weapons was just too fast. It seemed that they were in a hurry to fight.


    "Where is my son, Lin Xing? I want to kill him."


    At this moment, another group of people rushed into the tent. They were led by their commander, Qian Que. Beside him was Lu Kai, gloating.


    As this group of people rushed in, Ah Shan''s heart skipped a beat. As for Lin Qi, he had already expected this to happen and was very calm.


    "Little brat Lin Xing, you are too presumptuous. You actually dare to sell the Thunder Withered Leaf to the Giant Spirit Army. Don''t tell me you want to rebel against the sect?" Qian Que pulled out his sword, pointed it at Lin Qi, and asked angrily.


    Lin Xing stood up, smiled gently and said, "Traitor? I never said I was a member of the Heaven Sect. "


    "Heh, take him down and force him into the Heavenly Sect. Kill him instantly." Qian Que shouted angrily.


    "Who dares to touch my son?!"


    Just as the soldiers on both sides stepped forward, they were intimidated by an angry shout. Lin Shen Long strode forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Lin Qi.


    It was all in words. The warmth in Lin Qi''s heart flowed like a river as he glanced sideways at the majestic figure beside him. Actually, Lin Shen had always been shielding him from the wind and rain.


    "Lin Shen, you want to rebel? Aren''t you afraid of dragging your entire Azure Silver Country into a fire pit? "


    Seeing Lin Shen had arrived, Qian Que''s face turned extremely gloomy. Beside him, Lu Jianji asked with a low voice, as a look of schadenfreude flashed past his eyes.


    "If you dare to touch Xing''er, so what if I rebel? We are already surrounded by my army outside. If you dare to act rashly, I guarantee that none of you will think of leaving this place alive." Lin Shen coldly snorted.


    "Are you threatening me?" He looked coldly at Lin Shen.


    Then, he warned Lin Shen, "Lin Shen, on account of the fact that we''ve worked together for so many days, I advise you to immediately exterminate your relatives and personally kill Lin Xing. I can even help you speak up in front of the Elders Guild so that you won''t be implicated."

 C42

    "No need. I''ve already said it. Today, no one should even think of touching my son. If you force me into a corner, I will perish together with you."


    Lin Shen had his hands behind his back, each word loud and powerful. His figure became more and more imposing as he stood in front of Lin Qi like a mountain.


    Lin Qi''s heart was moved to a complete mess, and his eyes began to ache. In this critical moment, only his loved ones would help him without hesitation.


    "I think you''re crazy. Your son has committed a heinous crime, and his death is not to be regretted. No one can protect him. " Qian Ji''s finger trembled as he pointed at Lin Shen and his son.


    "At the very least, you wouldn''t dare to touch him today." Lin Shen waved his sleeve and a deafening roar came from the outside.


    Looking at this battle, there were at least ten thousand soldiers outside. Qian Chi and Lu Kaiji''s faces were filled with uncertainty, Lin Shen had already gone crazy, just like he said, if he was forced into a corner, he might be able to do something.


    "Lin Xing, the evil merchant that sold the Thunder Withered Leaf to the Giant Spirit Sect has already caused your Azure Silver Country a monstrous hatred. If you surrender now, I can still send you off the hook. If not, when I report it to the Elders Guild, your entire Azure Silver Country will suffer."


    Lin Shen gave a cold snort and shook her head at Lin Qi. She couldn''t believe what she had just heard.


    Lin Qi rolled his eyes. Did they really think he was a three year old child? He wiped away his sweat and said, "You already know that you are a profiteer, but you still want to ask me? Do you really think that he would carve the word ''profiteer'' on his face?" If you didn''t say it today, who would have known that he was someone from the Great Spirit Land? Furthermore, I bought the Withered Thunder Leaf from Black Wind Mountain. I don''t think the Heavenly Sect has the right to ask about the matters of Black Wind Mountain. "


    "You and your father cannot escape the guilt of such a clever tongue of a child. The group of elders will definitely pursue this matter to the end. " Lu Kaiji took pleasure in Lin Ming''s misfortune and spoke in a righteous tone. Previously, when Lin Ming had defeated the Giant Spirit Army and made a meritorious military service, he had been extremely indignant.


    "Then let''s wait for the orders from the Ascending Elders Guild." Lin Shen harrumphed.


    "Let''s go. You two better behave yourselves. " Qian Que cast a cold glance at them and led the group of people out of the tent.


    After they left, Lin Shen waved her hand, signaling Ah Shan and Hu Jue to leave as well. The two of them were the only ones left in the debt.


    Lin Shen walked to the edge of the tables and sat down. Looking at Lin Xing, she let out a deep sigh and said, "You fool, I know you want to earn money to pay your debt. Didn''t I already go to the frontlines to fight and gain merits?" I don''t need you to worry about me. "


    Father, this is not a matter of repaying the debt. The Sky Sect is going too far and has been oppressing our Lin Family the entire time. They have not even given us a chance to live. Lin Xing said with bright eyes.


    Lin Shen sighed and said, "Even so, can we afford to offend the Sky Sect? It''s easier to wipe us out than to squash an ant. "


    "While we cannot afford to offend him now, it does not mean that we cannot afford to offend him in this lifetime." Lin Qi clenched his fists and said in a loud voice.


    Lin Shen bitterly shook his head. He was very clear about his son''s physique, but it would be inconvenient for him to say it out loud. His tone became tactful as he said, "Being ambitious is certainly a good thing. Forget it, forget it. You can stay in the army camp and are not allowed to run around. You are at least safe here. "


    Of course, he knew what his father was thinking. In Lin Shen''s eyes, with the curse of heaven suppressing his cultivation, it was almost impossible for him to break through the shackles of cultivation.


    Now that things had come to this, it was inconvenient for Lin Shen to speak any further. He left a few more instructions before leaving.


    Lin Qi stood alone in the big account. It was as if he had been abandoned by the heavens. The feeling in his heart could not be understood, and he felt extremely helpless.


    If the heavens do not allow me, I will defy the heavens.


    In this life or death crisis, he no longer had anything to fear. At most, he would just die.


    For the rest of the day, Lin Xing stayed in the large tent and worked hard to raise his strength, not even taking half a step out of the tent.


    After so many days of repair, the soul hole was in perfect condition. Space expanded, and it wouldn''t be a problem to even put down a large stone. This allowed Lin Xing to experience the powerful effect of the Pulse Pushing Technique once again.


    While he repaired his soul cave, his cultivation had also continuously risen. The spirit energy throughout his body surged, as if it possessed the energy of someone at the peak of the advanced realm.


    Three days later, Lin Xing was sitting on a wooden stake while Ashan brought him a bowl of rice porridge, sipping it carefully.


    "What has happened in the army camp recently? Take this opportunity to tell me." Lin Xing asked as he drank his rice porridge.


    "Young master, from three days ago, Qian Que has been purposely targeting the old master. In the recent days of war, the old master has been leading the way in every battle, and almost all of the troops under the old master''s command have been beaten up." Ashan said bitterly.


    "Dry Carving." The bowl of rice porridge in Lin Qi''s hand stopped in mid-air as a sharp glint of light flashed across his eyes.


    "Is the Giant Spirit Sect fighting here every day?"


    Ashan replied, "Yes, even if there comes a day when he does not come, Qian Que will order Master to take the initiative. He will use the soldiers of our Green Silver Country as cannon fodder."


    "Heh, I will repay this kindness with enmity. How many soldiers and horses did he consume in my Azure Silver Country? I will definitely make the Heaven Ascension Sect pay back double the amount." Lin Qi placed the bowl on the table and said in a low voice.


    "I wonder what kind of plan Young Master has?" Every time when Ashan thought of the surprise attack, he could not help but feel his blood boil. He really wanted to do that kind of thing again.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth curled up in a smile. His eyes flashed, and just as he was about to speak, Hu Jue walked in.


    "Reporting to General, General Lin has asked you to lead the army for a meeting." Hu Jue clasped his fists.


    "Recruit me for a meeting?" Lin Xing was stunned, while Ah Shan was also stunned.


    "Could it be a trap?" Ashan muttered uneasily.


    When Hu Jue received the news, he also suspected that General Lin had taken the wrong medicine. After all, the Central Army was a dried up army.


    Not to mention Lin Xing and Qian Que, even with his identity, he didn''t have the qualifications to do so.


    "Young master, it''s better to be a bit more careful. Why don''t I go and report to General Lin? Tell him that General Lin is not feeling well and is unable to go." Hu Jue was also bewildered.


    "No need. Since it''s my father''s order, I believe he won''t harm me. Bring me there."


    Lin Qi waved his hand to stop him, stood up and walked over, then ordered Ah Shan to stay behind to watch over the house and followed Hu Jue out.


    After passing through the camp, Hu Jue led him to a large tent. Lin Xin tidied up his attire and strode into it.

 C43

    In the tent, the generals stood side by side. Qian Que, as the commander of the three armies, could only respectfully stand at the side as he listened to the orders given by the youth on the stage.


    The youth had delicate features and a figure as sharp as a sword. He sat on a chair, his back facing the crowd, and his eyes were as deep as the stars. When he saw Lin Xing walk in, he smiled with a hint of regret in his eyes.


    Beside the youth stood a tall girl with long hair, beautiful face, and slightly cold eyes.


    "Wake up." Lin Shen saw Lin Qi walking in and gently called out to him.


    Lin Xing nodded his head in greeting, then gazed at the youngster and young lady before him with a reminiscent look on his face.


    Liu Fengyu. Revolving Jue.


    As he recited the names of the two people in his mind, memories of the past flooded into his mind.


    In particular, the eyes that Jue looked at him with were filled with melancholy, regret, and nostalgia ¡­ However, since two years ago, everything had changed. They might not even be able to match up to strangers now.


    "How dare you, Lin Xing, kneel down when you see Lord Liu." Qian Que shouted at Lin Qi.


    Liu Fengyu was the head disciple of the Dancing Sky Sect and had a natural talent and a high status. He heard that there was an old grudge between Lin Xing and Liu Fengyu, so he decided to show Lin Xing off and show off in front of Liu Fengyu.


    "This trash even thought that he was that mysterious genius from back then. Right now, he isn''t even qualified to carry Lord Liu''s shoes." Lu Kaiji agreed with a sinister smile.


    Lin Xing turned a deaf ear and completely ignored the two of them. He stared at Liu Fengyu and Jue Jue. His expression was indifferent and he did not show the unwillingness or pain that they imagined.


    "Forget it, forget it. I know a little about his temper. He has a body full of haughty bones. Even if his legs were broken, he would not kneel to me." Liu Fengyu gently smiled, and anyone could see the pride on his face.


    Then he stretched out his head and stared at Lin Xing, "The matter of you selling to the Giant Spirit Army''s Thunder Withered Leaf will be dealt with by the Elders Guild. I will not pursue this matter. I called you here today because I want you to witness something with your own eyes. "


    Lin Shen looked at Liu Fengyu with a tense expression, waiting for the next part. However, from the looks of it, she did not intend to do anything to him.


    Liu Fengyu pointed at Lin Xing, his eyes as sharp as knives, and said: "Back then, you relied on the Ancient God''s physique to defeat all of my Heaven Rising Sect''s genius disciples, even I felt that I was inferior. But now that you have lost all your strength, you actually helped my Heaven Rising Sect accomplish a meritorious deed, this is truly rare. If the Elders Guild sends me to the frontline and instructs the army to fight to the death with the Giant Spirit Legion, I will let you experience that the current me does not only have strength, but also that my intelligence is higher than yours. I will slaughter the Giant Spirit Army to the last man. "


    Hearing this, Lin Xing laughed. Liu Fengyu''s unyielding nature was still the same. This person was very arrogant and fierce, even among the younger generation, he had never given in to anyone, even the old Lin Xing was no exception.


    "Of course. Not only is Lord Liu peerlessly powerful, his intelligence is also peerless."


    "No matter what, Lord Liu is a hundred times stronger than that trash, Lin Xing, no, ten thousand times stronger."


    Other than Lin Shen, the rest of the generals were all flattering him.


    "Haha, Senior-apprentice Brother Lin, do you see that? Right now, the two of us, one is the sky, the other is the earth. There really is no way to compare ourselves with each other!" Liu Fengyu laughed proudly and hugged the girl beside him.


    Jue immediately sat on Liu Fengyu''s thigh, looking at Lin Xing with a look of guilt on his cold face.


    "You called me here today because you want to use your Revolving Jue to attack me?" Lin Xing''s expression was indifferent, not affected in the slightest.


    "So what?" Liu Fengyu laughed even more carelessly.


    Lin Shen saw this and felt blood dripping from his heart. He felt that his son was not worth it. He had also heard about the past events regarding Lin Qi and Jujue.


    At that time, when Lin Xing saw how pitiful she was, he felt a bit of sympathy in his heart. He used his status as the chief disciple to pressure the elder in charge of accepting disciples, thus he had broken through and accepted Juechen.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing brought Jue back to the mountain and carefully helped her cultivate. He also secretly gave her the heavenly materials that his master had given her in the Azure Jade Stone. It was because of Lin Xing that she had achieved her current achievements. Because of this matter, Cang Xiaoxiao had been jealous of him several times.


    Now, when Jue saw Lin Ming again, he was actually unmoved. Without any words of thanks, even Lin Shen''s heart was chilled to the core.


    However, Lin Xing turned a deaf ear to it all and did not care about it at all.


    Liu Fengyu sneered, then asked close to Jue''s ear, "Is everything ready?"


    "Reporting to Senior Brother, everything has been settled. We await Senior Brother''s order." Jue withdrew his gaze from Lin Qi and chuckled as he looked at Liu Fengyu.


    "Alright."


    Liu Fengyu let go of Jue and stood up, saying, "Generals, listen to me. Attack with all your troops. I will lead you to slaughter the Giant Spirit Legion to the last man."


    He exuded a domineering aura and his tone was sonorous and forceful.


    However, the moment he said that, all the generals turned pale with fright, including Gan Chi and Lu Kaiji, they could no longer remain calm.


    "Lord Liu, you can''t. The bodies of the Giant Spirit Army soldiers are extremely strong, and now with the help of weapons forged from Thunder Withered Leaf, our strength has increased by leaps and bounds. Our army is not suited to fight against the Giant Spirit Army head on." Qian Que stepped forward to dissuade him.


    "That''s right, my lord. Our army is absolutely not a match for a Giant Spirit." Lu Kaiji braced himself and stepped forward.


    After battling with the Giant Spirit Army for so many years, they knew exactly how terrifying they were. Otherwise, they wouldn''t have been forced into such dire straits by their five million strong Giant Spirit Army.


    "Humph, he''s definitely not a match for the Giant Spirit? Are you saying that I''m inferior to him? " Liu Fengyu''s eyes opened wide as he pointed his finger at Lin Qi.


    "I dare not, dare not. Milord, that is definitely not what I meant. " Lu Kaiji retreated in shock.


    "If he can win a battle, can''t I?" Liu Fengyu said angrily.


    Lin Xing puffed up his cheeks and praised, "Lord Liu possesses unparalleled wisdom and courage. I am unable to match him. If he were to fight, he would definitely return with a great victory."


    "Lin Xing''er, shut up." Qian Ji was furious as he pulled out his sword and faced it head on.


    "What are you doing? Trying to rebel?" Liu Fengyu''s eyes opened wide.


    "This lowly general doesn''t dare." Qian Que''s face was red and white. He retracted his long blade and looked at Lin Qi resentfully.


    "After not seeing you for two years, I noticed that your eyesight has increased quite a bit. You can just wait for me in the barracks. I will prove to you that I''m stronger than you." Liu Fengyu enjoyed Lin Qi''s flattery. It was rare for these words to come out of Lin Qi''s mouth.


    "Understood." Lin Qi lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth, hidden underneath the cover, lifted into a smile.


    Lin Xing knew it was almost impossible to win this battle. Before he left, he warned his father that he must act according to the circumstances and must not be used as a lance by those under his command. He also handed over fifty thousand of his elites to Lin Shen.

 C44

    Not long after Liu Fengyu led his army out to battle, the Yin Valley Spirit led a group of disciples to the barracks. Lin Xing was on his way back to his camp and just happened to run into them head on.


    The elegant and graceful Yin Valley girl swept her gaze across the spacious military camp. She could barely make out the silhouettes of people as she caressed her hair. She looked at Lin Xing and asked with a frown, "Where are the generals and junior brother Liu?"


    Before Lin Qi could reply, his eyelids jumped wildly as a bad premonition arose in his heart.


    "He went to fight against the Giant Spirit Sect." Lin Qi pretended to be surprised. Did the Yin Valley Spirit not know?


    "Why didn''t you stop him?" He lowered his voice again.


    Lin Qi spread out his hands. Could it be that the Yin Valley spirit had drank too much? With a helpless expression, he asked, "Have you forgotten about my situation?"


    "Yeah, even if it was before, with Junior Liu''s character, you wouldn''t be able to stop him, not to mention that you''ve fallen to this state." The Yin Valley spirit sighed. He then turned around and ordered a young man, "Quickly, order Junior Martial Brother Liu to retreat and return to the camp. Tell him that this is my order."


    "Yes." The youth replied and turned to run away.


    "It''s too late. I''m afraid the two armies have already reached the top." Lin Qi calmly said.


    The expression on Yin Valley''s beautiful face was uncertain. He scolded Liu Fengyu for being muddle-headed and not knowing his place. He actually dared to directly collide with the Giant Spirit Army that was famous for its powerful physique. The outcome was something even his butt could think of.


    Her eyes flickered with a cold light. She took a deep breath and said, "If he loses over a hundred thousand soldiers, I will have my father imprison him in the Universe Cave for three years. I will also let him learn a lesson to extinguish his spirit. Otherwise, it''ll bring about a great disaster to the Sky Sect sooner or later. "


    The Universe Cave.


    When Lin Qi heard these words, he did not feel his body tremble. Liu Fengyu was in pain.


    To put it bluntly, the Cosmic Hole was the soul space of the ancestors of the Skysplit Sect. Inside it were array formations, illusions, and evil spirits ¡­ If an ordinary person were to stay in there for even a day, they would definitely go insane.


    Having been locked up in the Cosmic Hole for three years was already a very heavy punishment for Liu Fengyu. From the Sky Sect''s point of view, even if he defeated all of the million strong army, they wouldn''t kill him. A great army is easy to obtain, but a strange one is hard to find.


    Liu Fengyu''s value was hard to estimate. With his talent, once he grew, he would be worth more than a million soldiers.


    "Why did you come here?" Lin Xing asked with a frown on his face.


    The Yin Valley was not only the head disciple of the Sky Sect, but also the precious daughter of the grand master. With his status, there was no reason for him to go to the front lines.


    If something went wrong, all the generals here would die a horrible death.


    "Impudent, where is Senior Sister Yin going? Is that something you should ask?" Don''t forget your status. " A young man snapped coldly.


    The Yin Valley Spirit stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, shook his finger again, stopping the person beside him from speaking. He stared at the prodigy who once belonged to the Heaven Rising Sect and explained lightly: "The Elders and the Giant Spirit Sect have reached an agreement to use this battlefield as the trial ground for the disciples of the two sects. I am here to recommend myself and bring my disciples here to participate."


    "Oh, so that''s how it is." Lin Xing suddenly realized that the front line was becoming more and more lively.


    Looking at the group of young disciples behind the Yin Valley Spirit, he saw many familiar faces. However, those geniuses had once not even possessed the qualifications to curry his favor. Yet now, not only were there not the slightest bit of pity in the gazes they used to look at him with, they instead took pleasure in his misfortune and disdained him.


    Afterwards, Lin Qi did not speak anymore. After bidding farewell to the Yin Valley Spirit, he returned to his tent.


    As soon as he entered the tent, Ah Shan, who was sitting on the wooden stake, immediately moved out of the way.


    As soon as he sat down, Lin Xing ordered, "Ah Shan, send someone to inquire about my father''s situation on the battlefield, and report every move you make to me."


    "Understood." Ashan stepped out of the tent.


    With regards to the battle that was going on at the front line, Lin Xing could have maintained a completely indifferent attitude, sleeping while lying down at home. However, the key point was that Lin Shen was also participating in the battle, so he couldn''t not concern himself with his father''s safety.


    Lin Qi did not stay idle during this time. Instead, he began to cultivate his spiritual energy in an attempt to break through to the Dao splitting stage as soon as possible.


    Right now, he had both divine death and immortal energy. He already had everything that a Dao splitting expert should have, so he was only a step away from breaking through.


    The cold moonlight gradually covered the land, and even though there was no longer an army in the army camp, the lights were still brightly lit.


    In the latter half of the night, the cultivating Lin Xing was awakened by the noise. He abruptly opened his eyes and quickly walked out of the tent.


    Back.


    As far as the eye could see, a group of people were injured and crippled. Their bodies were covered in blood, and their armor was torn apart. All of their expressions were gloomy as they limped over like a group of defeated soldiers.


    Lin Shen had a knife wound on his chest, and blood was dripping from it. He was supported into the military camp by two deputy generals.


    Lin Qi''s face darkened. He hurried forward to support his father, and looked around at the generals and soldiers. His expression kept changing, and his brows were tightly knitted together.


    "Father, what''s going on?"


    He had returned after battling for half a day, and he had lost so miserably. This was something he had never expected.


    How could he lose so badly? No matter how strong the Giant Spirit Army was, they wouldn''t be able to defeat millions of the Heaven Rising Sect''s troops in half a day, right?


    "Sigh, don''t mention it. We''ve lost. The entire army has been dispersed. Even the young girl, Jue, who was standing beside Liu Fengyu, almost became a captive. " Lin Shen sighed, tears streaming down his face.


    "Impossible! The Giant Spirit Army is on par with our army. However, they only have some advantage due to their powerful physiques. How could that be?" Lin Xing had a huge question in his mind.


    Hu Jue arrived in front of Lin Qi, his face was equally gloomy, his body was covered in blood, but he did not sustain any major injuries, and said to Lin Qi: "In the beginning of the battle, our army was on par with the Giant Spirit Legion, both sides were injured, but it was not to the point of suffering a crushing defeat. However, who would have thought, a group of young men suddenly rushed out from the Giant Spirit Army camp, all of them fierce, their strength was strong, and their strength was so strong that it was as if no one of them was able to stop our army. "Our army was defeated like a falling mountain. They dispersed in all directions and immediately turned into a mess."


    "Young man? Yun Chi? " Lin Xing could not help but frown as he thought about the scene of Yun Chi and Ju Xin Si whispering to each other.


    "We don''t know each other, but we are certain that they cultivate the Nether Sect. They are vicious in their methods, maiming or disabling, sucking in souls and tempering their bodies with blood." Hu Jue said confidently.


    Remembering the oath he had made not long ago, Lin Xing''s gaze turned as sharp as a blade. He nodded his head towards Hu Jue and said in a friendly manner, "Help my father go back to rest. I want to pay my respects to the injured soldiers."

 C45

    "General ¡­"


    Lin Shen and Hu Jue hadn''t even taken two steps before a weak call came from Lin Xing''s eardrums.


    Looking towards the direction of the voice, he saw that the owner of the voice was trembling. He quickly walked towards the source of the voice.


    At this time, the Yin Valley Spirit had also arrived with a large group of Sky Sect disciples. They were all gathering towards the person who had made the announcement.


    Lin Qi stepped forward and held the man''s right hand, observing his injuries. Immediately, he began to channel some immortal energy into the man''s body.


    The man was covered in wounds as he lay on the stretcher, breathing heavily. He was on the verge of death. He was one of Lin Xing''s war generals, Lei He.


    After carefully checking his injuries, a look of lament appeared on Lin Xing''s face. All the meridians in his body were broken, and all his organs were shattered. Even with the miraculous medicine that he had consumed, it was difficult to revive him, much less Lin Xing who was merely an immortal Qi.


    The Yin Valley Spirit stared at the seriously injured and dying Lei He with a cold expression, feeling helpless. No matter what, this was a general of the Sky Sect.


    "General, I know that my injuries are too severe, please stop." Lei He said weakly as he laid on the stretcher.


    "Hai."


    Lin Qi let out a long sigh. He wanted to save her, but he was powerless, so he could only give up.


    "General, this lowly general has made a great mistake in not disciplining this subordinate well, and only after listening to General''s teachings did this lowly general change his mind and recognize that he had made a mistake. At the moment of his death, this lowly general''s greatest wish is to beg General to forgive me and have this lowly general die in peace." Lei He''s tears flowed down his face. With a sorrowful expression, he looked pleadingly at Lin Qi.


    Lin Xing took a deep breath, raising his head to look up at the sky, slowly saying in a loud voice, "General''s unparalleled hero, surpassing the battlefield, invincible and invincible. Digging into the corpse of a Giant Spirit, consolidating an ancient foundation, the heroic soul shining in the sky, unparalleled divine might, now that the body of the General has vanished, I have a great responsibility. "Please rest assured General, I will definitely avenge you."


    "Heh ¡­"


    Lei He''s eyes were filled with tears, and he slowly closed his eyes. Until his death, he did not forgive the mistakes he made.


    And when Lin Xing said he would take revenge for him, it could also be considered another form of consolation.


    "Bury it." Lin Xing closed his eyes and said solemnly.


    "Is your heart too cold? Why can''t you agree to the last request of his life?" The Yin Valley Spirit was not satisfied, it asked Lin Qi with sympathy.


    Lin Qi shook his head, not wanting to answer.


    Following that, his body trembled as his voice grew louder and more powerful, "Those who still have combat prowess, follow me. I want to avenge General Lei He."


    "Now?"


    The surrounding people all looked over with widened eyes and faces full of disbelief.


    "Yes, now." Under everyone''s gaze, Lin Xing slowly nodded his head.


    "General, count me in. General Lei He and I are like brothers. I will personally go onto the battlefield to avenge him." Ming Yi stood up straight and slapped his chest with his large hand.


    Lin Qi nodded at him, his eyes full of confidence and determination.


    "Count me in."


    Another wave of sounds rang out. Everyone who was standing slapped their chests. Their morale was boosted, no longer looking like the handicapped veterans.


    "We''ll go too."


    Four young men walked over from the side. They were young, and all of them had a dignified appearance. They were the four of the eight phenomena of the general''s manor.


    Lin Xing nodded at them with a smile on his face. He and the Eight Elephants were all members of the same clan, there was no need for him to say anything more.


    "Lin Xing, are you crazy?"


    The Yin Valley opened its beautiful eyes wide. Its eyebrows were as cold as a spring on a snowy mountain. The great army had just returned from a great defeat, yet they were still charging towards the spear. This was no different from courting death.


    "Do I look crazy to you?" Lin Xin laughed, his expression was as if it had been frozen, "Soldiers, you''re very cunning." Although our army has been defeated, our morale is high. We should make a surprise strike now, and use our fangs in return. "


    After hearing that, the Yin Valley Spirit seemed to have thought of something. After a while, he pointed at the group of disciples and said, "Since you are so determined, I will support you from the bottom of my heart. As a core member of the Sky Sect, I wish you all the best. As a disciple of the Sky Sect, you can pick any one of my disciples. They are all very strong and should be able to help you. "


    "Senior Sister, his mind has been clouded by hatred. If he were to fight again now, he would lose for sure."


    "That''s right, Senior Sister. He wants to die, but we are not willing to die with him."


    The group of youngsters beside him were instantly unwilling. No one was optimistic about Lin Xing''s decision, and all of them began to speak out in disagreement.


    She bit her lips, unable to speak for a long time. In truth, she did not agree with Lin Qi''s actions, but in her heart, she was fighting for the Sky Sect, so she had to express herself.


    The group of disciples from the Skysplit Sect would rather not go with him. Although they were powerful and were a great help, they were all very proud and arrogant, so they were naturally not happy with Lin Xing. If they really followed him, then it would ruin their own plan of march.


    "Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Sister. This journey is full of danger and unfathomable. It''s just as they said, I can''t bring them to accompany me in death." I can''t afford that. " Lin Qi said indifferently.


    "At the scene at the front lines, it was a fight to the death. Even if my sect''s disciple dies here two or three times, my sect will not say anything." But unfortunately ¡­ "If anything happens to you, I will take care of the General''s Mansion in the future."


    "Many thanks, Senior Yan." Lin Qi smiled. He could not continue their conversation. Why did it seem like he was going to explain things later?


    "Senior is correct, but the reason why we''re not going is not because we''re afraid of death. It''s because we''re afraid that someone will use us. After all, there are some people who are like fire and water with our sect right now. A disciple of the Sky Sect said in a strange tone as he looked at Lin Xing, his eyes filled with ill intent.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi''s expression did not change, as if he did not hear what was said. He slightly bowed towards the Yin Valley Spirit, turned around and walked away.


    "Lin Xun, go count the number of people."


    "Gao Yan, send scouts to investigate the movements of the Giant Spirit Sect."


    "Ah Shan, bring me the map."


    Lin Qi issued a series of commands, and the Eight Elephants started moving as well. Time was of the essence, and time was of the essence.

 C46

    "General, there''s a total of a hundred thousand elites here. They''re willing to follow the general and go through fire and water."


    "These one hundred thousand people are the legions of our Azure Silver Country. At this moment, everything is ready for the general''s order. "


    "The Giant Spirit Army advanced for a hundred miles without stopping. It is slowly nibbling at our troops. "


    Lin Qi observed the map in front of him and drew out his sword. He used the tip of the sword to draw a line from one corner of the map to another. Finally, he stabbed the sword down and froze on the map.


    Then, he pulled out his sword, and Ashan put away the map. He looked up at the sky and said, "Let''s go."


    They mounted their horses and led the 100,000 elites of the Azure Silver Country that still had some fighting strength out. Their troops moved in an orderly manner and their march was swift. Before long, they were drowned by the darkness of the night.


    The Yin Valley Spirit and the group of disciples from the Sky Ascension Sect all looked at the departing army with the exception of the former. Their expressions were all filled with ridicule. They believed that Lin Xing would die here.


    The Yin Valley spirit seemed to be in a state of flux. It seemed to be in a trance, and it felt an inexplicable strong sense of confidence in Lin Xing. It was as if she could see the unparalleled, unparalleled youth who had once stood beneath the Heavenly Cauldron and had won the admiration of tens of thousands of people.


    In the wilderness, Lin Qi led his army and quickly attacked. They didn''t stop and all of them were ready to fight for their lives. They planned to fight a bloody battle tonight to make the Giant Spirit Sect pay a heavy price.


    The four elephants followed beside him, their faces showing that they were unaffected by death. They were not optimistic about Lin Xing''s decision. Previously, they had promised Lin Xing that they would fight because their blood had been fired up and they wanted to avenge their brother''s death. Even if they couldn''t destroy the Giant Spirit Sect, they could pay for it with their lives.


    "Brother Xing, why didn''t you go straight to the front line?" A young man asked curiously on the way.


    He was Gao Yan, one of the eight protectors of the nation. When he was young, he had befriended Lin Xing, and after Lin Xing entered the Heavenly Ascension Sect, their relationship gradually grew more ordinary.


    Lin Qi smiled but did not say anything. He had already said everything that needed to be said on the map. He did not answer him and instead urged the army to hurry up.


    Within a mountain range, there were rows upon rows of military camps. The bright lights illuminated the dark sky, adding a touch of brilliance to the pitch-black world.


    Within a large tent, a group of people were drinking until their ears were burning. They were singing and dancing, and were talking and laughing merrily. They were holding a celebratory feast right now.


    Yun Chi and a group of Yin Master disciples as well as Ju Si were among them. After this fight, the two of them had become slightly closer to each other.


    But what made people feel strange was that with his status of being a Giant Remains, he was only sitting on the side. The person sitting on the seat of honor was a young woman disguised as a man.


    The woman was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She was dressed as a man, dressed as a scholar. He didn''t look like the commander of the three armies at all, but more like an elegant scholar.


    Her appearance was not that beautiful, but she was also rather pretty and had a mature charm to her. Everyone looked at her with respect, including Giant Reed.


    Ye Feihua, the commander of the Giant Spirit Sect legion, was known as the most intelligent person in the Giant Spirit Land. Her background and background had always been a mystery. Apart from a few senior executives of the Giant Spirit Sect, no one else really knew.


    Although her cultivation was average and she was only at the level of a Body Fusion, her fame was widespread in the Giant Spirit Land. She also held a high position in the Giant Spirit Sect, and even the unrivalled genius Jing Si had to be respectful to her.


    "Brother Yun, it''s all thanks to you that I was able to defeat the army that had ascended to the sky so easily. It looks like my decision from the beginning was not wrong." "Yes." The man smiled and said to Yun Chi.


    Yun Chi laughed out loud at the same time: "Big brother is too courteous, everyone is just taking what you need. Actually, it was all thanks to Lady Ye that I was able to easily crush the army of the Sky Sect. Commander Ye was in command, and was able to plan things so that I could strike out at the right time to deal the Sky Sect a fatal blow. "


    When he first arrived here, he was surprised that the army had actually handed over such a weak female commander to Ye Feihua. At that time, he still looked down on them, and only after obtaining victory in this battle did he understand how frightening they were.


    "Haha, although Ye Shuai''s cultivation is average, he is still a member of our school''s elders'' group. Regarding important matters of our sect, we need to ask her opinion. " Giant Leviathan smiled.


    "Oh ¡­" These words startled all the disciples of the Gongyin Sect. Ye Feihua actually had such a heavy weight in the Giant Spirit Sect. It seemed that they had underestimated him.


    "Everyone, listen to what Rincewind has to say. You don''t have to take it seriously. I''m just an honorary elder of the Giant Spirit Sect." "I''m sorry, elder, but the group of elders think highly of me." Ye Feihua''s voice was shrill and did not match his age. It sounded like the voice of a three year old, pleasant to the ear.


    Yun Chi stared at her, a fanaticism rising in his heart. If he could obtain this kind of extraordinary woman, just thinking about it would be a wonderful thing.


    He cupped his fists and said, "Marshal Ye, if you have the chance, please come and be my Yin Master School''s guest. Our sect really likes to entertain intelligent people like Commander Ye."


    "Of course." Ye Feihua smiled.


    "Haha, Brother Yun, are you trying to poach me?" Giant Leviathan smiled.


    Yun Chi said, "Giant brother, if you give me ten guts, I won''t dare to dig a corner of the Giant Spirit Sect." I admire Ye Shuai''s grace and can''t help but praise him. "Speaking of which, it is a great regret that we were unable to leave Liu Fengyu and the woman beside him."


    Giant thought calmly: "What?" Big Brother, have you taken a fancy to that girl called Jue? "


    "The woman from the Heaven Sect ¡­" Hehe, to be honest, that Jue was quite pretty. I wanted to stay, but Liu Fengyu seemed to think highly of her and saved her with all his might. " Yun Chi''s expression changed slightly. Liu Fengyu''s power had exceeded his expectations. Both he and Giant Remains had joined forces, but they were still unable to keep him.


    "Liu Fengyu is indeed worthy of being the head disciple of the Sky Sect. His reputation is indeed well-deserved. If it wasn''t for the fact that my Divine Body was in the Slow Spirit Realm, I would have definitely kept him here today." It''s my fault that I didn''t use all my strength today. Otherwise, Brother Yun would have had a great time tonight. " Giant Reeves laughed softly.


    Yun Chi was overjoyed. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ye Feihua, who was sitting in the seat of honor, give a heavy grunt. She looked displeased as she said, "You two, to say all this in front of a woman like me, do you think it''s appropriate?"


    "Rincewind saluted." Ju Xin Si''s expression changed, he was ashamed. This was truly a close friend of his. After being in contact with Yun Chi for only two days, his own temperament had actually undergone an indistinct change.


    "Yun Chi is also lacking in manners." Yun Chi cupped his fists towards Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua frowned, unwilling to bring up the topic any further.


    "The army of the Sky Reaching Sect has suffered a huge loss in this battle. I wonder what Marshal Ye will do next?" asked Giant.


    Yun Chi waved his big sleeve, and said in a deep voice: "Of course, we should just directly kill our way into the Heavenly Sect''s camp, and kill them all."


    "No. If Liu Fengyu is not able to hold on and occupies the natural terrain, it will be very difficult for our army to move forward. I know Liu Fengyu is eager to help, so we should pretend to retreat and lure him to attack. " Ye Feihua spoke softly, each word clear and pleasant to the ear.


    A few days ago, she had finally forced the Sky Sect''s army into a desperate situation. She had the chance to destroy the army in one go, but was defeated by one person.


    Every time she thought of it, she would always bear a grudge.

 C47

    "Marshal Ye, what a brilliant plan. Liu Fengyu was so proud and arrogant that he would never admit defeat. We pretended to withdraw our troops, so he would definitely attack us. I thought we were afraid of him. "


    Liu Fengyu was a disciple of the Divine Arts Sects. They knew about his background, character, and strength. Of course, for a genius to become a chief disciple, who wouldn''t be proud and arrogant? If it was them, they would be the same.


    Boom ¡­


    Suddenly, the sounds of slaughter outside the tent shook the heavens, causing the expressions of Giant Leviathan''s and Yun Chi''s expressions to change drastically. Including everyone''s, they fell into a state of panic. Ye Feihua''s expression was equally astonished.


    "Reporting to the Sky Sect, the army is coming." A soldier hurriedly entered the tent and knelt on one knee.


    Aside from Ye Feihua and Giant Thoughts, everyone else abruptly stood up from their seats.


    What was going on?


    The army of the Skysplit Sect had just lost their troops and returned defeated. Liu Fengyu hastily retreated; where did he get the guts to counterattack?


    "How many men and horses do they have?" Ye Feihua stood up gracefully with light steps and walked to the center of the tent.


    "About a hundred thousand." The soldier replied.


    "A hundred thousand?" Ye Feihua stroked his long hair, his expression turning unnatural as he blurted out a name.


    "Lin Xing."


    To have such guts and a schemer, Lin Xing must have come here to take revenge. Ever since the withdrawal of the army last time, she ordered people to investigate who the Elite Armament surprise attack was and thoroughly investigated Lin Qi''s ancestry and past.


    "It''s him." "Hmph, well done. I will kill him myself." Yun Chi was infuriated as he issued a murderous voice. A ruthless aura spread out from his body, surging out like the waves of the ocean.


    "Could it be that ancient and mystical genius from back then?" Giant Reed was suspicious, and his eyes were clouded.


    "That''s right. This waste has the guts to kill a Yin Valley disciple right in front of me. If it wasn''t for the Yin Valley Spirit blocking him, I could have killed him back then." Yun Chi said with a face full of hatred as he turned around and walked out.


    "Hold on."


    Ye Feihua stopped him, took a deep breath, and ordered, "Withdraw your troops."


    "What?" "Retreat."


    "Why are you saying this, Commander Ye? He''s just a huge army of a hundred thousand. If he dares to come and die, how can we not grant his wish?"


    Everyone was stupefied, especially Ju Xin. He was stunned on the spot. He had never seen Ye Feihua display such a grave expression and issue such a helpless command to retreat.


    "My army is on the frontlines to invade the territory of the Heaven Sect, and the reinforcements closest to us are at least eight hundred kilometers away. This military camp of ours is actually an empty camp right now. "Lin Qi led a huge army of 100,000 to attack. I know that all of you are disciples of major sects and are considered outstanding talents among the younger generation, but do you think that you can match up to a great army of 100,000?" Ye Feihua said.


    "This ¡­"


    Yun Chi and the rest felt as if they had woken up from a dream, cold sweat trickling down their foreheads at Ye Feihua''s words. No matter how strong they were, they would not be a match for the huge army of one hundred thousand. The reason why they were able to fight their way to the top and enter a no-man''s land was all because of Ye Feihua''s ability to command. Using the Giant Spirit Army as cover, they were able to achieve such results.


    "But how did this Lin Xing know we were here?" The giant mind was slightly frustrated. It let out a roar of unwillingness, making a peerless genius like him retreat without a fight. This was undoubtedly the greatest wound.


    Ye Feihua sighed lightly. Lin Xing''s use of troops had also exceeded her expectations, counting this time, it was already the second time. Her heart was filled with unwillingness, the withdrawal of the central army meant that the entire army was being dragged out. Without her leading, it would be very difficult for the frontline army to carry out their next offensive plan, and if they did not pull back, they would inevitably fall into danger.


    "The mountain here is the tallest. Standing at the top, you can even overlook the territory of the Skypiercing Sect. This is exactly what we wanted. Lin Xing saw through this, so that''s why he is here."


    "But we aren''t willing to leave just like that." The person he hated was right in front of him, yet he couldn''t kill him.


    Ye Feihua bared her teeth and said bitterly, "I know you all are unwilling, but withdrawing the army is our only way out. Otherwise, even if a few of you are powerful enough to avoid being hunted down, you guys would have already lost some of our lives here. Of course, I will also order the army to come closer to this place and encircle and annihilate Lin Xing, leaving him with nowhere to run. "


    "But if that''s the case, the Heavenly Sect''s army will take the opportunity to attack. Our army is too tired to deal with them." Giant thought.


    "Killing Lin Qi is the most important thing, we must not let him continue to live. You can stay behind and guard less than half of the legion, bluffing and pretending to be suspicious. I don''t think Liu Fengyu would dare to attack. " Ye Feihua had made up her mind. Lin Xing was the most troublesome enemy she had encountered so far, so she should get rid of him as soon as possible.


    He did not hesitate to use millions of troops to encircle and annihilate a mere hundred thousand men of Lin Xing.


    "Are we retreating in the direction of the army at the front lines? Kill this trash, Lin Xing Yu, and then, according to our previous plans, lure Liu Fengyu into battle. " Yun Chi asked, his heart much calmer.


    But in the next moment, a bucket of cold water was poured over them. Ye Feihua shook his head gently and said, "I''m not going to take any risks. Although I''m confident that Liu Fengyu won''t dare to fight, in order to be safe, we have to retreat to the rear. I can''t joke about the lives of my men. "


    "Sigh ¡­" Yun Chi let out a deep sigh, unwilling to give up.


    From this moment onwards, it was destined that they would be defeated in this battle. In order to eliminate Lin Xing, the army had to retreat, lest there was a change in the situation.


    "Capture Great Perception alive, capture Ye Feihua alive, and kill Yun Chi."


    The sound of the slogan outside was deafening, and when it entered the eardrums of the people in the tent, they felt extremely upset. Especially Ye Feihua. His eyes suddenly turned ice-cold, as if he had been desecrated.


    Only ten thousand people were left to defend this place. They tried their best to resist, but they couldn''t hold on for too long either. The Great Perception tightly guarded Ye Feihua, leading the people of the Yin Master School to retreat in one direction.


    The battle quickly settled as Lin Xing led the army to occupy the barracks. They entered the camp where Ye Feihua and the others had just left. Sweeping his eyes over the delicacies on the table, his expression was indifferent.


    "Brother Xing, Ye Feihua, Ju Jin, and the others have fled in the direction of the Giant Spirit Realm." Gao Yan said.


    Lin Qi''s gaze was like lightning as he coldly replied, "Chase after him."


    "You''re still chasing?" This is the territory of the Giant Spirit Race. If we are surrounded by their great army, we will have nowhere to run. " The Four Symbols, Ah Shan, and the group of high-ranking officers were all dumbstruck.


    "Chase!" We have to chase. This is our only way out. The front lines were encircling us. If we wanted to break out, it would be almost impossible. The Yin Valley Spirit and Liu Fengyu definitely wouldn''t take the risk to save us. Only we can save ourselves. " Lin Qi said in a cold tone as he took a deep breath.


    This was a mental battle between him and Ye Feihua. It depended on who had the guts.

 C48

    A large group of dark clouds covered the sky and drifted over from afar, covering the bright moon. The dark mass hung low, and the ground was suddenly covered in darkness.


    Ye Feihua''s bare arms had incredibly smooth skin. Her slender hands trembled and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.


    Other than the former, all the disciples of the top sects were sweating profusely. Even with their cultivation, they were exhausted after running for so long.


    Giant Remains was born with four elephants. It had a natural divine strength and an incomparable physique. After running for an entire night without a single blush, it was the calmest amongst the group.


    Yun Chi and the other disciples of the Yin Master Sect were all horrified. The four bodies of the Yin Master Sect were indeed extraordinary. The moment their nether energies touched his clothes, they would immediately bounce back and cover his body like sharp swords.


    Next was Ye Feihua. Sweat dripped down her cheeks, but her expression was not as terrible as Yun Chi and the rest. Standing on the ground, not moving an inch, they even suspected if she was faking it.


    As for Yun Chi and the rest of the group, other than him, who could still barely keep his cool, two other Dao Seeking experts fell to the ground, panting heavily. Their faces and necks were red.


    "Report ¡­"


    "What''s wrong again ¡­"


    Before they could stabilize themselves, they saw a scout scrambling over. His helmet was missing and his hair was disheveled. His face was ashen, and he was in a sorry state.


    "Lin Xing is back with his army." The scout said. In fact, he didn''t even have the face to report on the situation. This was already the eighth time.


    "Motherf * cker. Could it be that Lin Xing is really tired of living and wants to continue living?"


    Yun Chi couldn''t help but curse. The egg had lightened because of his anger. This Lin Xing had gone too far. As the chief disciple of the Yin Master School, he held a high position. When had he ever been chased like this? Gritting his teeth, he couldn''t help but want to burn Lin Xing to ashes.


    A good-for-nothing dared to challenge his bottom line? It was intolerable.


    "I''m going to fight. I''m going to grind Lin Xing''s bones and scatter his ashes." Yun Chi and Big Rise said in unison, their voices cold.


    "There''s no need for that. After coming here, I''ve thought of a good place to go." Ye Feihua rolled his eyes.


    "Where?" A group of people opened their eyes wide and looked over.


    Ye Feihua lightly stroked her long, thick, jet-black hair. Lowering her head and playing with it, she said, "Molding Spirit Mountain."


    Yun Chi and the rest looked confused, it was as if they had never heard of this place before. The group of Giant Spirit Sect members led by Giant Spirit King were shocked, their eyes flashing.


    Yun Chi asked in surprise: "What''s so special about this mountain?"


    Brother Yun, you may not know, my Giant Spirit Land is filled with spirit beasts, the wilderness is everywhere, many large mountains have been left behind since the ancient times, and naturally, there are many spirit beasts of various shapes and sizes, the Molten Spirit Mountain is one of them, I have never been to this mountain, but I have heard that every single grass and tree has their own intelligence. Giant Rivers explained.


    "What Ye Shuai means is that we should bring Lin Xing into the Spirit Transformation Mountain and let the spirit beasts attack them?" Yun Chi''s eyes lit up as he turned to look at Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua nodded slowly, saying, "This place is three thousand Li away from our position. If Yi Yeyu were to escape, it would be ridiculed by others. However, it''s different for Lin Xing and his army. They will easily attract the attention of the spirit beasts, and with the help of Jing Si, even the Four God Bodies would not dare to approach them. "


    "But what if Lin Xing hasn''t been fooled?" Yun Chi asked with a dull look in his eyes.


    "Haha."


    "Brother Yun, you''re overthinking it. Although Lin Xing is chasing us, and our army has already surrounded him, we have no way out of the Spirit Transformation Mountain. Isn''t that the same for him?"


    Ye Feihua smiled and nodded in agreement.


    "Even if Lin Xing doesn''t dare to enter, it doesn''t matter. Once we enter the Spirit Transformation Mountain, all of the spirit beasts we kill will belong to you. This is also a gift from the Giant Spirit Sect." Ye Feihua stared at Yun Chi as he spoke slowly.


    Yun Chi was emotionally moved. He had long heard of the spirit beasts on the land of the Giant Spirit Beast. They were all descendants of ancient divine beasts, born with intelligence, and their bodies were filled with treasures, especially the beast cores, which were comparable to miraculous medicines.


    Without further ado, they rested for a moment before rushing in the direction of the Spirit Molding Mountain.


    About fifteen minutes later, a huge army of a hundred thousand arrived. The surrounding mountains were trembling, and muffled sounds rumbled as birds scattered in fright.


    The dark clouds drifted further and further away. The bright moon revealed itself in the dome of the mountain. The full moon was like a flower. The mountain forest was drunk, and the shadows of the trees were dancing in the wind.


    Lin Qi looked up at the starry sky and then lowered his head to look around. Another person walked up to him from the side. He held a jade pendant up high and said, "General, we found this thing nearby."


    He took the jade pendant and carefully rubbed his fingers against it to remove a layer of dust. Upon closer observation, there was an extremely small spirit character engraved on it.


    "Deliberately?" Lin Qi''s eyelids twitched as a doubtful look appeared on his face.


    "Hmm? Ye Feihua left it here on purpose? " Gao Yan stared at the jade pendant in his hand, bewildered.


    "Maybe not. We''ve chased them for so long, so we''re tired. Although Ye Feihua and the others have stronger cultivations, they might not be able to handle it. It''s not impossible for you to be left behind due to negligence. " Lin Qi said with a strange expression on his face.


    Lin Xun, who was also one of the Eight Elephants, agreed, "What Little Brother Xing said is not without reason. Ye Feihua isn''t a god, so she would also expose her flaws. My Little Brother Xing is chasing after her and beating her up." She couldn''t have deliberately left a trail. "


    Hm? Exposed traces?


    Lin Qi''s body shook as his eyes suddenly shone with a golden light. He quickly held the jade pendant before his face and observed it. After a long time, he asked the people around him, "Is there anything related to spirits?"


    "Yes, about 100 kilometers to the south, there is an ancient and divine mountain called Spirit Transformation Mountain." Gao Yan said.


    "Molding Spirit Mountain?" Lin Qi held the jade pendant in his hands and slapped his thigh. "Let''s go, we will advance into the Spirit Transformation Mountain."


    As soon as he gave the order, he impatiently spurred his horse forward and galloped towards the south. He was burning with anxiety, fearing that he would be a step too late.


    "Brother Xing." Gao Yan, Lin Xun and the rest exclaimed out in shock. They had yet to say how terrifying this Spirit Molten Mountain was.


    He rushed to give chase to the horse and caused a large amount of leaves to fly up. In an instant, the sounds of all the troops starting up and stepping on the ground resounded through the horizon.


    Gao Yan spent half a day to catch up with Lin Xing, and said in one breath, "Brother Xing, please wait a moment. There are many spirit beasts on the Spirit Molding Mountain, and the plants have turned into spirits. We can''t go in. "


    Lin Xing''s face was expressionless. Ye Feihua had purposely led him into the Spiritual Molding Mountain, so how could he not have guessed the dangers within? However, he had to make it. Ye Feihua had also anticipated this, which was why he dared to leave the jade pendant behind.


    "The Giant Spirit army is closing in on us. Within two days, millions of legions will surround us and we won''t be able to escape. Ye Feihua gave me a path to life. That''s where we can rest and recover. "


    "The way out for Ye Feihua?"


    Gao Yan was shocked and confused.

 C49

    In the wilderness of the desolate mountains, a hazy mist permeated the air. The road twisted and turned, and when looking into the depths, it seemed cool and empty.


    The roars of beasts echoed across the sky for a long time. No matter when it happened, there was never any peace. It seemed to be compatible with the void.


    As his gaze wandered over the green leaves of the barren mountain, Lin Xing''s eyes turned and a vicious look appeared on his face.


    "Let''s march." He''d given the order and was the first to set foot into the mountain, disregarding everyone''s persuasion.


    As the great army reached the mountain, the rumbling sound of footsteps almost drowned out the beast''s roar. In the depths of the forest, a pair of blood-red eyes could be seen, eyeing them from afar like a tiger eyeing its prey.


    When Lin Xing decided to move the army into the Spirit Metamorphosis Mountain, he had already fallen into a quagmire. If he wanted to pull them out, it would be extremely difficult.


    The Giant Spirit Army would not dare to advance, and they would not stay here forever either. As time passed, they would definitely withdraw, and at that time, it would be his chance to turn the tides.


    In his heart, he didn''t know whether to thank Ye Feihua or hate him. It seemed like he was going to die, but there was a slim chance of survival.


    "No one is allowed to fall behind. Count the number of people every four hours." Lin Xing gave the order solemnly.


    Afterwards, the great army continued to advance towards the center of the Shrek Mountains. This ancient mountain was endless, and there was practically no end to it. There were beast roars everywhere, but the strange thing was, they still hadn''t found a single spirit beast.


    They saw a few stalks of refined grass and wood that seemed to have smelled the scent of fresh blood. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws as they bit towards the soldiers. All of them were cut into two pieces by the soldiers.


    This place was full of oddities, and everyone had no choice but to focus all of their attention.


    After four hours, Gao Yan went up to report the number of people. When he said this, even he was shocked.


    "Brother Wake Up, ten members of our army have gone missing."


    "Missing?" Lin Xing frowned as he sat on his steed, his facial expression changing drastically.


    "Yes, it''s gone missing. It''s just like it disappeared into thin air."


    After four hours, all sorts of beast roars could be heard, but the number of spirit beasts they encountered along the way could be counted on one hand. One had to admit that this place was extremely strange and frightening.


    "Set up camp here. "Give the order that the saber will not leave his side and be ready to fight at any time." Lin Qi slowly said.


    The goal of the huge army of 100,000 was too big. When they had just entered, the powerful spirit beasts had already noticed them. Thus, Lin Xing did not bother observing the terrain and immediately set up camp there. This was because it was impossible for the huge army of a hundred thousand to conceal themselves to perfection. Not to mention that this was the spirit beast''s territory, so he knew every tree and grass like the back of his hand.


    Four hours later, Gao Yan reported back, "Twenty more from our army have gone missing."


    His face was gloomy and unnatural. He had disappeared mysteriously without a trace. It was just as the saying went, it was easy to dodge an arrow when it was open, but difficult to defend against an arrow in the dark. An uneasy feeling arose in his heart.


    Suddenly, Lin Xun hurried over. Just as he got close, he said, "There is a Yin Sect disciple''s corpse in front of us. I got someone to carry it back. "


    As he said this, two soldiers carrying a corpse walked over from a distance. Lin Xing was greatly alarmed and quickly stepped forward to investigate.


    This corpse''s face was completely unrecognizable. Its head was severely deformed, and up to now, blood and brain matter had flowed everywhere. This caused the surrounding air to be filled with a pungent smell.


    From the looks of its death, it seemed as though it had been slapped to death by a spirit beast. Even though his face was completely unrecognizable, and even Lin Xing couldn''t recognize him, based on the nether energy he exuded, he was able to determine that this person was an expert at the Dao Reaching Realm.


    An expert of the Dao Seeking stage had died on the spot, causing the entire army to become restless and terrified.


    "It seems like Ye Feihua''s business didn''t go as smoothly as she thought." Lin Qi muttered to himself. His eyes trembled as he took in a deep breath.


    Turning around to look at the gathered soldiers, he said, "Soldiers, I hereby swear that from now on, I will not let anyone disappear without a reason. I, Lin Xing, will bring you all back safely."


    All the soldiers lowered their heads and did not say anything. No one gave a reply, and their expressions were all ugly.


    Arriving here, there was an army on the outside and fierce tigers on the inside. They entered deep into the quagmire and were trapped in a dangerous situation. How could it be as easy as Lin Qi said it would be?


    Seeing this, Lin Qi sighed in his heart. There was no point in speaking any further. In order to convince the soldiers, they must show their true capabilities.


    He walked up to an ancient tree and sat down with his eyes closed, as if he was resting. When the soldiers saw his actions, they also became unwilling to leave. Only after Gao Yan''s persuasion did they disperse.


    The curtain of night descended once again on this piece of land. Tonight''s moon was incomparably large, and the moonlight that scattered down was abnormally cold. It shone on the skin of a person, as if a layer of white frost had descended.


    The cold wind blew gently, and a cold breath came out from the ground. Even though Lin Xing was in the Acupoint Charging realm, the spiritual energy in his body was boundless, causing him to shudder in fear.


    He took the lead to watch the night. Other than a few soldiers patrolling the camp, most of them had already fallen asleep. The four elephants were no exception.


    "Phew ¡­"


    Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew in front of Lin Qi, sweeping away the two leaves. At this moment, a faint cry for help came from a nearby tent.


    He quickly opened his eyes and slapped the ground with his palms. His figure was extremely nimble as he rushed towards the source of the cry for help.


    Before he could get close, a black shadow flashed by with lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, the shadow submerged into the forest and disappeared without a trace.


    He did not hesitate to follow up. Although the figure was extremely fast, he managed to catch a glimpse of a soldier in the mouth of the man. Although his breathing was weak, he did not die.


    They charged into the forest, which was covered by a large area of dense forest. The place was dark, devoid of any light, and filled with an incredibly cold aura.


    With a flip of his right hand, a black ancient lamp appeared out of nowhere, and a bone-chilling flame rose up, lighting up the surrounding area.


    With a tap of his finger, the black lamp automatically opened up a path. All of the surrounding spiritual plants quickly retreated, not daring to touch it.


    The black shadow continuously jumped about in the forest, occasionally sticking its head out. Its body was nimble, like a fish swimming in water. Lin Xing urged the black light to chase after it.


    After blowing out a breath, the light suddenly expanded greatly, and the black shadow that was currently moving entered his eyes.


    The black shadow''s entire body was covered in long black hair. It had the figure of an ape, the facial features of a tiger, and it walked in a human-shaped posture. In its right hand, it held a bone that was extracted from an unknown spirit beast. On his left hand, five sharp fingernails pierced into the back of the soldier, carrying him in a bloody fashion.


    The bone blade in its hand was extremely sharp. Subconsciously, it slashed lightly, causing an ancient tree to fall down, blocking Lin Qi''s path.

 C50

    The Divine Ancient Era was an era that was even older than the Ancient Era. From the beginning of the world to the early Ancient Era, it could be divided into the Divine Ancient Era.


    In that distant era, gods roamed everywhere, and hundreds of races were fighting with all their might, and the heavens did everything they could to control them. As a result, there were also many strange plants and strange beasts that opened their minds, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to cultivate, transforming into human forms, speaking human words, flying into the sky and escaping into the earth. There were even some powerful beasts and spirit trees that could compete with gods and devils.


    Later on, the world''s laws gradually improved, the beasts and spirit trees were exiled, and the stronger ones were directly exterminated by heavenly tribulation. Although a descendant''s bloodline was left behind, due to the suppressive laws of the world, they were no longer able to restore their divine splendor, and the most obvious point was that even the heavens were no longer allowed to speak human words or take human form.


    As he chased after the Tiger Ape in the dark forest, Lin Qi could clearly feel that its aura of viciousness was in no way inferior to that of a cultivator. How was this a spiritual beast? It was clearly a demonic creature. It should be accurately called a vicious beast.


    Its body moved like lightning, disappearing in an instant. If Lin Xing didn''t have the celestial lamp leading the way, he would have been thrown off a long time ago.


    Immortal qi gushed out, and the light on the black lamp became even more intense. The light from the lamp was capable of penetrating the heart, causing the tiger ape to have no place to hide.


    Lin Qi took out his blade from the Soul Cave and leapt out. Borrowing the momentum of the impact, a large tree sprinted out, directly rushing towards his front.


    At the same time, Mo Dao raised his saber high above his head. A sharp saber energy shot out and viciously chopped toward the head of the tiger ape.


    The cold eyes of the tiger ape turned to look at this scene with a savage expression. It tossed the soldier in its fingernails to the side and dodged to the side. Then, it dived into the forest.


    Lin Qi''s blade struck nothing but air as he landed beside the soldier. He leaned his saber against his back and assumed a battle-ready posture. At the same time, he lowered his body and began to circulate his pulse pushing technique to help him heal his wounds.


    Immortal qi gushed out of his palm and entered the soldier''s body through the wound. His pale, paper-like face gradually regained its rosy complexion. His breathing became more weak and steady, and black saliva dripped down from the wound.


    Lin Qi retracted his immortal qi. His heart relaxed; at least he had saved him.


    That black saliva was extremely corrosive. If it was a moment later, the soldier''s body would have rotted away and turned into a pile of rotten flesh.


    CHI *


    Right at this moment, a sharp sound of air being cut came from above his head. A black shadow jumped down from a big tree. The bone blade in his hand hacked down with all his might.


    Clang! Clang ¡­


    Sensing the danger from above, Lin Xing swiftly pulled out the saber on his back and placed it horizontally above his head. The two weapons collided and sparks flew everywhere.


    The buzzing sound made his eardrums itch and his arms go numb.


    Seeing that his attack had failed, the black shadow instantly disappeared into the forest. Hidden in the shadows, he prepared his next deadly attack.


    A black lantern appeared in front of Lin Qi''s chest, shining brilliantly like a bright moon hanging upside down. With his eyes focused on his surroundings, he stomped on the ground with his right foot, grabbed his machete and dashed into the grass.


    "He''s gone again."


    The tiger ape was like a fish in water in the jungle. It was unpredictable and could not be found at all. It appeared in the east and in the west, and it was extremely good at hiding.


    Suddenly, threads of grass came out from the ground and surrounded him. There was no way out.


    Mo Dao used a single move that could sweep away an entire army of enemies. Mo Dao slashed across the grass line, but the grass line unexpectedly didn''t move at all. It fell limply to the ground, and even he himself was bounced back several meters.


    At the same time, he noticed that not far away, there was another figure wrapped in grass. Looking through the darkness of the night, even though that figure was wearing men''s clothes, his figure was as slender as a woman.


    Quiet as a clear pool, moving like a ripple.


    Surrounded by the grass tendrils, he was able to move his fingers easily. With a flick of his finger, the sword Qi dissipated and all the grass tendrils turned into dust.


    Because there were too many blades of grass, the silhouette could not hold on any longer and was slowly being pushed back.


    Then, he looked at Lin Qi, he decided to put the blade back into his soul space and ignite two black lights, releasing bursts of flames and burning all the grass in the surrounding area into nothingness.


    However, he quickly came across the same problem. The strands of grass kept coming out of the ground without showing any signs of drying up.


    The grass was as thin as a cicada''s wing. It was almost impossible to see with the naked eye. It was sharper than a steel knife. Wherever it went, not even a blade of grass grew, and ancient trees would be broken. The two of them were not paying attention, and a small cut appeared on their bodies.


    Flames were spewing out in all directions, and a large amount of grass strings were annihilated. With the help of the black light, they opened up a path, quickly approaching that human figure who was not far away.


    The figure was clearly visible as he approached. It was a beautiful woman about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She was disguised as a woman and her nose was slightly upturned. Her face was like white jade and she had a beautiful face.


    "Ye Feihua?"


    An answer emerged in Lin Qi''s mind, so he asked in a probing manner.


    The woman''s expression was slightly astonished as she stared at the young man in front of her. Her eyes were like clear rain as she asked, "Lin Xing?"


    "Haha, you think that you can borrow the power of spirit beasts to completely annihilate my army here? Now, it seems like you have not succeeded as you wished. Instead, you have been trapped in a dangerous situation. " Lin Xing looked at Ye Feihua with a playful expression.


    There were many wounds on Ye Feihua''s body, and her clothes were torn in many places, revealing her snow-white skin, especially on her chest. Her chest was slightly exposed, and waves rolled violently, appearing and disappearing.


    Anger appeared on Ye Feihua''s face, but at the same time, she felt extremely ashamed. Under Lin Xing''s malicious gaze, she quickly used her hand to cover her chest as she coldly looked at Lin Xing, warning him.


    "Entering the Molten Spirit Mountain is the biggest mistake I have made in my life. The change that had occurred in the Spirit Mountain was even more dangerous and bizarre than usual. If you want to make it out alive, you have to join hands with us. "


    "Join hands with you? Do you think that''s possible? Your army has already surrounded the outside of the mountain. Even if I managed to walk out of the mountain alive, it would be difficult for me to escape your pursuit. However, the fact that these words can be said from the Giant Spirit Commander has really made me have a whole new level of respect for him. "


    Lin Qi pretended to laugh out loud, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. However, his heart trembled slightly.


    "So, you don''t want to?" So it turns out that the greatest enemy that I value most, is actually such a short-sighted person. The huge army of one hundred thousand that came with you, will all be buried here because of you. " Ye Feihua urged.


    Lin Xing disdainfully asked, "What happened to Ju Rui and Yun Chi?"


    When he said the name Yun Chi, his eyes revealed a strong killing intent.


    "As I said, the Spirit Mountain has changed and we are separated."


    Ye Feihua said, "If you are unwilling to join hands, I will not force you. I only hope that you will do your best."


    As he spoke, his two fingers turned into swords and a large amount of Sword Qi spread out in all directions, chopping all the grass in front of him into pieces.

 C51

    In truth, it wasn''t that Lin Xing didn''t want to work with Ye Feihua, but rather this woman was very scheming. The words she said were half true, half false, and half true.


    Ye Feihua''s fingers transformed into a sword. His posture was extremely graceful and his aura was sharp. Each and every one of his moves flashed like a sword as he struggled against the layers of grass.


    With each point of his finger, he slashed out like a sharp sword. The void sword intent revolved around him, forming a sword domain.


    Lin Qi stared straight at the figure and his eyes glazed over slightly. His expression became extremely strange.


    As soon as he retracted his consciousness, a large amount of grass cords interweaved into a net and swarmed towards him.


    With a stamp of his feet, he retreated seven to eight meters away from Ye Feihua. Although the grass tendrils were terrifying, the human heart was even more so. After all, they were enemies, so it was necessary to be on guard.


    Withdrawing his blade, he activated another powerful trump card, Death God Power.


    A punch struck the ground, causing a slight tremor to occur near his heels. A huge wave of aura of death, with him as the center, began to sweep in all directions.


    If the grass tendrils originated from the ground, it meant that there was definitely an Awakened Spirit Wood hidden underground. It was only after many years of cultivation that he had reached his current level of cultivation.


    But, everything depended on the circulation of vitality, and the Death God power was the greatest nemesis of vitality.


    A streak of black smoke spread across the ground. Wherever it passed by, all the plants turned into dust in an instant.


    The dense grass also disappeared in an instant.


    Standing up, Lin Qi gave a faint smile before walking into the open space.


    But soon, he felt a peculiar gaze behind him. He turned his head to look at Ye Feihua, his face covered in sweat. "Why are you following me?"


    "¡­"


    Ye Feihua''s pretty face turned cold with embarrassment. She was tongue-tied for a long time, but she could not say a single word.


    Lin Xing was a little strange, or at least that was what she thought. She had been stuck in this place for an entire hour, unable to charge out.


    "Are you following me? "Then I won''t go. Let''s just stay here and waste time."


    Lin Qi lazily sat on the ground. The Death God power was hidden in his palms and all the grass threads that approached him disappeared.


    "You ¡­"


    Ye Feihua was angry and anxious. No matter how scheming she was, she couldn''t do anything to Lin Qi here. If she hadn''t relied on Lin Qi to escape the area sealed by grass, why would she be so lowly?


    "Do you really want to continue? Aren''t you worried about your hundred thousand strong army? " Ye Feihua sneered.


    Lin Qi''s heart tightened, but he maintained a calm expression and said, "What''s the point of worrying, I was the one who implicated them." Now that I am under such heavy siege, I am powerless. However, before I die, I was able to pull you, this commander of the Giant Spirit Legion, down with me. It''s worth it. "


    "How about this, you bring me out and I''ll order the Giant Spirit army outside to create a gap for you to break through." How about this deal? " Ye Feihua said slowly.


    Lin Xing fixed his gaze on her and said with interest, "You think I will believe you? However, I am very interested in your suggestion. It''s just that you have the power to completely withdraw the army. "


    "Ha?" Ye Feihua sneered, "Are you bargaining with me? Do you think that the Giant Spirit army is my trusted aides? You have to understand. Yun Chi and Ju Si already hate you to the bones, if I let you go, how can they not hate me? I won''t do this bad guy. "


    Lin Qi fell into deep thought. Ye Feihua had already made the biggest concession he could give. As a matter of fact, he was tempted by this deal.


    He nodded lightly at Ye Feihua. He finally agreed.


    Ye Feihua mysteriously added, "I spent a lot of effort to force the Sky Sect''s army into a corner, but you destroyed it twice. To be honest, I both hate you and admire you. I challenge you now. I just said that I will show you a gap, but you still have to figure out where that gap is. One was a path to death, the other a path to death. "Let''s see how you choose then."


    "Interesting, interesting." Lin Xing laughed and said, "I''m flattered."


    "You agree?" Ye Feihua said.


    "Yes, I did." Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold as he said, "Use the lives of one hundred thousand men from your Giant Spirit Sect as the wager to challenge me. I have to say, you are the commander-in-chief." Doesn''t it look superficial? "


    Ye Feihua was rendered speechless. He shook his head, but remained calm and forceful as he said, "This is the way of the heavens, this is the way of the rules. "It may seem shallow, but it''s the best way to train the mind."


    "So, we are all... "A toy." As he spoke, Lin Qi extended a finger and pointed at the sky.


    Hearing these words, Ye Feihua''s heart suddenly became restless, a huge ripple appearing. In the end, he smiled bitterly and felt deeply helpless.


    "Let''s go." "Let''s kill our way out."


    Lin Xing supported himself up with his arms on the ground and spoke to Ye Feihua. Then he activated the Death God power and walked forward.


    Ye Feihua followed closely behind, as if she were flying.


    Boom ¡­


    The ground in front of him shook as if something was about to break out from the earth. A few large trees in the vicinity collapsed, and leaves drifted about.


    Lin Xing and Ye Feihua stopped in their tracks in shock, staring at the ground in front of them.


    After that, with a boom, countless grass threads drilled out like a python opening its mouth and devouring.


    The air froze as Ye Feihua''s right arm shook, sending out five or six sword qi.


    Lin Xing''s Death God power surged like a torrent as he fought alongside her.


    A large amount of fire erupted and a huge wave of air spread out, forming a black hole that seemed to devour everything.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    The string of grass dispersed, and a black shadow rushed out of the black hole. The snow-white bone in its hand drew a line in the air, and the sharp sound caused the two people''s scalps to go numb for a while.


    After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, Lin Xing swiftly countered with another attack. The Sky Concealment Spell was executed immediately, pushing away the shadow with a tyrannical force.


    A stream of sword Qi shot out from Ye Feihua''s hands in a series of ferocious attacks. The moment she saw the black shadow, her beautiful face lost all color as panic filled her eyes.


    "It''s it. I''ve seen its own kind before. With a single palm strike, it killed a cultivator of the Dao Division."


    Ye Feihua''s mind went blank, and he began to mumble indistinctly. He thought back to the scene that had just occurred to him not too long ago, and his heart filled with a lingering fear.


    However, it was an existence similar to the black shadow in front of it. It was much taller, and its fur was also relatively sparse. Its face was ferocious, and as it walked and limped, it moved like lightning.


    Since this black shadow''s appearance could be compared to that of an existence, then it must be a divine Ancient Devil Seed that could not be underestimated.


    Lin Xing stared at the indistinct shadow lurking in the darkness, his eyes dark to the extreme. Hearing Ye Feihua''s words, he felt his heart palpitate.


    The guy in front of him had quietly kidnapped thirty soldiers.

 C52

    Thinking back to the tragic death of the underworld sub-Dao Realm cultivator, who had been caused by the same person, Lin Xinghe''s expression changed again and again.


    A single palm strike had killed a dao realm expert. This kind of battle prowess was shocking to behold. This meant that this race was very powerful, and was also an overlord of beasts in the Molten Spirit Mountain.


    For example, the black shadow in front of him, its strength was comparable to a cultivator at the Dao Division. It was crafty and ferocious, always hiding in the shadows, giving others a fatal blow once it found an opening.


    However, Lin Xing and Ye Feihua were not ordinary people. Lin Xing could not even mention that Ye Feihua''s sword intent had entered his body, his aura was like thunder, and his sword skills had reached perfection.


    Especially when he slashed out the third time, it would erupt with immense power. The sword Qi soared into the sky, repelling the clouds.


    "Third charge, divine sword skill."


    When Ye Feihua inadvertently mentioned the name of the sword skill, Lin Xing secretly remembered it in his heart.


    The two of them fought hand in hand. As they moved forward, their expressions were that of seriousness. They were constantly paying attention to their surroundings.


    Woo ¡­


    Even the slightest sound of the wind could not escape their ears. The black shadow charged over and appeared above their heads. The massive darkness aura was like a mountain crushing down.


    The two of them reacted quickly and launched a barrage of attacks towards the sky. Sword qi surged, death god exploded.


    The black shadow tiger''s face was full of shock. It couldn''t avoid the attack and spat out a mouthful of black blood. It flew out and hung upside down on a tree.


    As the ripples dissipated, the sound of the wailing wind did not disappear. Instead, it lingered by the ears of the two people and the black shadow.


    Ye Feihua decisively charged forward. They could not let it hide, otherwise, they would be forced into a passive state again.


    "Be careful ¡­"


    But it was too late. Five sharp fingernails stabbed out horizontally, slashing down. Ye Feihua paled as he hastily pushed aside the five bloody wounds on his back.


    Lin Qi rushed forward and hugged the soft body. At the same time, he took out his blade and hacked down on Shadow''s head. His body was split into two halves, from head to toe, and a strong stench assaulted his nostrils.


    He landed steadily on the ground and placed the wounded Ye Feihua to one side. He noticed that within the shadow''s flesh, there was a black pearl that was flickering with light, which was especially eye-catching.


    The head of the blade straightened and lifted the black bead. The celestial spiritual energy circled it once, causing all of the black blood on the bead to evaporate, but the stench couldn''t be removed. Lin Xing felt helpless about this.


    This was a beast core. It was the essence of the Archaic devil seed and spirit beast, and it contained the power of its entire life.


    The stench made him retch. He put it into his soul hole. If he could get rid of it as soon as possible, he was sure that his strength would increase by a lot.


    When he turned around and saw Ye Feihua, he was shocked.


    Lying on the ground, his face full of struggling, his closed eyes constantly trembling. His two hands tightly gripped the grass by his side, a mess on them. He seemed to be in great pain.


    He almost forgot that the black shadow''s entire body was poisonous and filled with a highly corrosive liquid. Ye Feihua was hit and blood flowed through his meridians.


    The skin on his neck was darkening.


    Ye Feihua couldn''t die now. If he died here, all the deals they made would be for naught.


    Saving Ye Feihua was equivalent to saving himself and the huge army of a hundred thousand.


    Unleashing the Pulse Pushing Method...


    By the time Ye Feihua opened her eyes again, the clothes on her body had already changed greatly. If she wasn''t seeing things, wouldn''t that be the exact same clothes Lin Xing had just been wearing? As for her own clothes, they were thrown aside.


    Ye Feihua''s face immediately turned ice-cold. Seeing the innocent looking youth standing in front of her, her heart surged with resentment.


    "I''ll kill you."


    His eyes were spitting fire, and his originally beautiful face was now ashen. He suddenly stood up and pounced towards Lin Qi, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws.


    Lin Xing was stupefied ¡­


    He grabbed her arm and said coldly, "Please understand one thing, I saved you."


    He was furious that Ye Feihua would actually repay him with kindness.


    Ye Feihua steadied her body and pulled back her arm, saying calmly, "I know. "Thank you."


    Then, his expression suddenly changed, and he said with incomparable indignation, "What''s wrong with my clothes?"


    Lin Qi glanced at his thin clothes and rolled his eyes, saying, "The magic seed scratched the back of your clothes, so I gave my clothes to you."


    He said it casually, but when Ye Feihua heard him, his heart felt extremely uncomfortable, and his teeth itched with hatred.


    However, Lin Xing had saved her, and he had repeatedly thought about the gains and losses that he had suffered. comfort. In the end, she couldn''t hold it in anymore and asked shyly, "Your eyes ¡­"


    "Did you see anything you shouldn''t have seen?" Ye Feihua hesitated, gritting her teeth as she finished speaking.


    Lin Qi suddenly realized and said, "So that''s what you''re worried about, then you really worried for nothing. You even have a bra inside. Besides, I''m not interested in you. "


    How could Ye Feihua endure this? He even had the heart to smash his head into a wall.


    The more she looked at Lin Qi, the more she hated him. If they were on a battlefield, she would definitely slaughter him and his army to the last man.


    While the two were talking, a shocking light burst out from the forest in the distance. It shot straight into the clouds, shocking the soul and shaking the entire area within a hundred li.


    At the same time, faint dragon cries and tiger roars could be heard in the wind. It was deep and heavy, as if a demonic deity had appeared, resonating with the wind.


    "This is the sign of the Four Symbols Body being fully formed." Ye Feihua exclaimed.


    "Great Ris." Lin Qi blurted out a name.


    "It''s him." I believe that he must have found some great opportunities within the Spirit Transformation Mountain. " Ye Feihua said softly.


    "He is indeed worthy of being called a favored son of heaven. With luck on his side, he can pick up treasures wherever he goes." Lin Xing was full of envy.


    Rays of light flourished as they charged into the dome of the mountain. The spirit beasts worshipped them, and the spirit trees trembled. Boundless energy also rushed out from the heavens and gathered towards that light.


    After a long time, the light gradually dimmed. Then, two white figures flew into the sky and landed on the light.


    The two white shadows exuded a power that overflowed the heavens. They were incomparable, so powerful that it caused the sky and earth to lose their luster. The spirit beasts within the mountains were all concealed, and didn''t dare to make the slightest sound.


    Very quickly, two white silhouettes dashed out from the forest. Jumping up into the sky, Giant Reese lay in their arms like he was in a deep sleep.


    "It''s the clan elder. He''s here to bring Rincewind back to the sect." Ye Feihua wasn''t surprised by this scene.


    Ju Xin had great potential and was the Giant Spirit Sect''s number one genius. Even if he came out of the sect now, there would still be people secretly protecting his safety. They couldn''t let him die so easily.


    Lin Xin, on the other hand, was quite shocked. He had underestimated the value of Giant Remains. To think that two clan elders would personally come to receive it. One had to know that in the sect, the clan elders were even older than the elders. Each of them were powerful experts that could shake the entire sect. They could be called the pillars that supported the sky in the sect.


    Generally, the sects would not show themselves unless there were major events, and this was the strongest foundation of each sect.


    From this, it could be seen that the potential of Giant Spirit was almost unimaginable.


    "If my guess is correct, you must be a sword immortal from the immortal gate, right?" Lin Xing calmed himself down and narrowed his eyes at Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua pursed his lips and nodded. "Yes."


    "Then why did you appear in the Giant Spirit Sect?" Lin Qi asked curiously.


    "Your curiosity is too great."

 C53

    Sword immortals belonged to the Immortal Sect. They cultivated immortal energy, yet they used their sword arts to step into the Dao. It was said that the Sword Immortal''s Sword Controlling Technique could be used on a person from thousands of miles away.


    On the surface, Ye Feihua''s cultivation was only at the Unity Realm, but Lin Xing believed that she had the ability to fight even against those at the Dao Reaching Realm. The attacks of the sword immortals were extremely sharp, and they were even more powerful than the body exterminators. They were especially adept at fighting those above their cultivation level.


    There was a sword immortal standing beside her. After Lin Qi learned of her identity, he couldn''t help but pay more attention to her.


    What made him curious was that when a sword immortal appeared on the Giant Spirit Land, he seemed very surprised.


    But since Ye Feihua wasn''t willing to speak, he didn''t ask.


    The spirit wood had been uprooted, and the ancient demonic beasts had died. The danger had been averted for the time being. "Will you come with me?" Lin Xing asked.


    The Spiritfount Mountain was secretive and mysterious. It hid many Archaic devil seeds and spirit beasts. Who knows what might appear in the next moment.


    Of course, Ye Feihua did not want to travel alone. Lin Xing had many cards up his sleeves. He also had immortal qi and divine powers. There was always a power that could restrain the dangerous creatures within the Spirit Molding Mountain. At least it was safe to stay with him.


    "I''ll go back with you," he said.


    Lin Xing smiled and naturally understood what she was hoping for. To him, it wasn''t a bad thing for Ye Feihua to follow him.


    When he had chased the shadow here, he had unconsciously run 20 miles. The jungle was deep and the paths were winding. The grass reached his waist. In the wilderness, 20 miles wasn''t considered close.


    He looked around, carefully recalling the route he had taken when he first arrived. After pondering for a while, he walked towards a certain direction with large strides. Ye Feihua walked beside him.


    CHI *


    Not long after he walked out, the sound of wind breaking could be heard from a deep forest. At that location, the light and shadows of swords and the rumbling of thunder could be heard. It seemed that someone was fighting.


    A large amount of nether energy was emitted. The dark energy entered the whirlpool and a large number of ancient trees were emitted.


    "It''s the people from the Netherworld Sect." Ye Feihua''s expression froze.


    "Yun Chi."


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold as he spat out a name with a murderous intent.


    "You have enmity with Yun Chi?" Ye Feihua was stunned again.


    "Yes."


    At the same time, Lin Xing also walked towards the battlefield.


    Helpless, Ye Feihua could only follow.


    After passing through a large area of dense shrubbery, what greeted his eyes was a large swampy area. It was pitch-black and emitted an extremely fishy smell.


    At this moment, there were seven or eight people trapped within. Some of them had more than half their bodies sunk in. They struggled for a moment, but the deeper they sank, the deeper they sank. Some were like dragonflies touching the water lightly. Their toes landed on the ground, and then they flew up again.


    The swamp was swirling with mud, and from time to time, small creatures would rush out, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. With a body covered in mud, they would rush up and bite those seven or eight people.


    Lin Qi recognized them at a glance. These were the disciples of the Yin Master School. Yun Chi seemed to be walking right in front, leisurely strolling in the swamp.


    He could tell that Yun Chi and the rest did not fall into the swamp, but purposely headed deeper into the swamp.


    In the center was a small piece of flat land, surrounded by swamps. On top of it grew a small tree that looked like a Qilin and was covered in red fruits.


    The flowing lights and overflowing colors were like a ball of fire that was burning.


    "Blood Qilin Fruit." This is a Divine Ancient Spirit Fruit. " Ye Feihua cried out in alarm. She was experienced and knowledgeable, so she immediately recognized the red fruit.


    Blood Scale Fruit! Lin Qi''s expression changed. He had heard about this before. It was said that the Blood Unicorn Fruit was formed from the blood of Qilins, and that tree represented the blood of qilins.


    Whether or not it was really a qilin, one had to understand one thing. A qilin was a great beast from ancient times, and its power could touch the heavens. Something that could be hooked onto a qilin was definitely extraordinary.


    It was said that the Blood Unicorn Fruit was a divine medicine that refined blood. It could increase one''s blood vitality and also had the effect of increasing one''s lifespan. If a mortal were to eat one, they would definitely live another two hundred years.


    Yun Chi was naturally tempted by such a heaven defying object. He went deep into the swamp to pick it up.


    Moreover, the biggest flaw of the Blood Qilin Fruit was that once it was picked, it must be consumed immediately. Otherwise, it would burn into flames within a second and dissipate in the end.


    As for those Nether Sect disciples with average cultivation bases, and some of them were even in the Conclave Realm, they wouldn''t hesitate to take a risk in order to obtain the Blood Unicorn Fruits.


    The beasts that emerged from the swamp were like centipedes. They jumped three meters into the air, baring their sharp and bloody black teeth. After failing to land a single blow, they immediately returned to the swamp.


    Yun Chi waved his sleeves, sending a centipede flying. Then, it exploded, splashing black blood.


    When he saw Lin Xing appear here, he flew into a rage. His killing intent surged endlessly. Then, he noticed Ye Feihua standing beside him, his expression turned into one of extreme surprise.


    "Marshal Ye, please help me kill this trash." Yun Chi said with an ashen face.


    Ye Feihua''s expression did not change as he lightly said, "Sorry, I can''t help you with that."


    Hearing this, Yun Chi''s face turned even more green as he clenched his fists tightly. In such a short period of time, Lin Xing''s relationship with Ye Feihua had changed greatly.


    Lin Qi looked at the last Yin Master disciple. Half of his body was in the swamp, and he was struggling with a painful expression on his face. It was as if there was something underneath him that was biting him.


    He shouted for help, but no one was willing to. There were only Blood Lin fruits in his eyes, and people of the Netherworld Sect had always been cold and indifferent. Every one of them had once carried blood, and they were all ruthless characters who had slaughtered their way out of a large group of outer court disciples.


    "I''ll send you on your way."


    With a stomp of his right foot, Lin Xing flew out and landed right on top of that man''s head. He pressed down hard, causing that man to sink into the pit of despair. After stirring for a while, he was no longer able to move.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    Yun Chi and the other Yin Master disciples flew into a rage. They couldn''t bear to kill their sect''s disciples while they were in danger.


    Lin Qi let out a cold laugh and decided to kill. He didn''t show any mercy to this group of people from the Dark World. He kicked the tip of his foot again and a Yin Sect disciple landed a kick on the centipede that was about to bite him.


    Ka-cha ¡­


    The centipede opened its mouth wide and bit off a large chunk of flesh. The centipede descended into the swamp. The sound of the centipede biting was still heard by everyone through the black mud.


    Lin Xing executed the Hidden Heaven Spell. Borrowing the force from it, his body was as light as a swallow''s. Lin Xing was like a fish swimming in water in the swamp, and he was much more relaxed than Yun Chi.


    He killed another five or six people in a row.


    Although this group of Yin Sect disciples were not weak either, they couldn''t muster up any strength and all died in a grievance.


    "Kill the elite of my Yin Master School. Just you wait. My Yin Master School will raze your entire Green Silver Country to the ground." Yun Che''s eyes were wide open as he spat out each word from his mouth.


    At this moment, other than him, there was only one other Dao Breaking Stage expert left in the swamp. That person was also surrounded by large numbers of centipedes. Although it wasn''t too difficult for him, he wouldn''t have been able to survive if Lin Xing had interfered at this moment.


    He could not help but send a pleading look at Yun Chi who was at the very front.


    Yun Chi acted as if he did not see it, but he gave Ye Feihua a resentful look. Not long ago, people from the same faction had been watching coldly from the sidelines as Lin Xing killed him.


    Afterwards, Yun Chi flew out towards the Blood Unicorn Fruit. Although Lin Xing killing his junior brother caused him great hatred, this bit of hatred was nothing in front of the Blood Unicorn Fruit.


    Asking him to give up on the Blood Unicorn Fruit and turn around to save his junior apprentice-brother, he felt that he wouldn''t be able to do it.


    As long as he obtained the Blood Qilin Fruits, his strength would be able to rise to another level.


    Especially when he saw this with his own eyes, his heart was shaken when he realized that Giant Spirit had obtained such a great opportunity in the mountains. It was very unbalanced.


    Now that the Heaven Defying Fruit was right in front of him, how could he possibly give it up just for the life of one of his junior apprentice-brothers?

 C54

    Yun Chi dashed out towards the Blood Qilin Fruit and first grabbed it before swallowing it. It wasn''t too late to finish Lin Xing off.


    He had never imagined that Yun Chi would be so heartless and cold-blooded. Then, he laughed at himself; if it were him, he might not have given up on the Blood Lin fruit in front of him and gone to save others.


    There was a demon hiding in the swamp, constantly killing. To be able to reach this place was not easy. If Yun Chi came back to save him, then all his efforts would have been in vain.


    The later the better! No one wanted to stay here any longer.


    Lin Qi harrumphed coldly as he executed the ''Sky Concealment Technique''. Stepping onto the swamp, he took seven or eight steps forward, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the Dao Realm expert.


    Lin Xing''s quick and easy appearance caused him to turn pale with fright. He was truly a Dao splitting expert, and an outstanding genius within the sect. His reaction was fast, and as he channeled his nether energy, an endless dark aura gushed out.


    But Lin Qi was quick and nimble, easily dodging the attack. He leaped into the air and then punched out.


    As the saying goes, from the ground, that person couldn''t use his full strength, especially when his movements were restricted. He could only passively block.


    "Ah ¡­"


    He cried out in alarm. Although he blocked Lin Qi''s attack, he was actually bitten by a centipede. Poisonous fluid gushed out from its teeth, causing a painful expression to appear on his face.


    Lin Qi''s foot landed right on his chest, and his body flew up and landed on the swamp.


    Soon after, a group of centipedes flew over and bit him. Within two seconds, they were swallowed by the mud torrent.


    To be able to kill him, he had to make use of all sorts of opportunistic methods. If not, Lin Xing might not be his match.


    Also, compared to Zhu Yanghua, this person''s strength wasn''t weak at all.


    Taking a closer look, he saw that Yun Chi had already landed on that small piece of land and was reaching out his hands to pluck it.


    Lin Xing shouted out, causing him to be stunned for a moment. His arm froze mid-air as he turned his head around and stared dully at Lin Qi.


    Seeing that the Dao Realm expert had "disappeared", Yun Chi''s face turned pale as he scolded the trash.


    Just at that moment, Lin Xing dashed out. Stepping on a centipede, he leaped three times in succession and arrived next to the Qilin tree.


    Yun Chi''s eyes revealed a fierce look, but he did not attack Lin Xing first. Instead, he grabbed a Blood Qilin Fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing took out his blade from the soul hole and hacked downwards, stopping Tang Wulin from moving.


    In the time it took for a spark to fly off of a piece of flint, Yun Chi was unable to swallow the Blood Qilin Fruit in his hand.


    The Blood Lin beast was just like the legends; it immediately evaporated.


    "I will hack you into pieces."


    There were only five or six fruits on the tree, and now that he had destroyed another, Yun Chi was infuriated. He no longer cared about the Blood Lin fruits, he would first kill Lin Xing.


    Yun Chi was extremely powerful and his strength was unfathomable. Even though he knew that Lin Xing had activated the Heavenly Cauldron, he still dared to challenge him. This showed just how confident he was.


    It was not like he was on a swamp now, where Yun Chi instantly unleashed all of his power. He punched out with his fist and boundless nether energy blasted Lin Xing away from the land.


    Lin Xing was sent flying backward. He felt an excruciating pain all over his body, and blood trickled down from the corners of his mouth.


    Using the Hidden Heaven Technique, he slapped the swamp with his palm, then bounced back and returned to the land.


    Yun Chi could no longer hold it in. He threw out another punch, and cast a meditation technique. The surrounding wind blew strongly, and Yin Qi enveloped Lin Xing, causing him to feel as if he had fallen into purgatory.


    Unable to defeat him in terms of strength, Lin Xing hurriedly retreated. The Death God Power gushed out from his hands and when the two forces came into contact with each other, the void exploded.


    That Yun Chi could not quell his hatred and chased after him, sure to scatter the ashes of Lin Xing.


    With the help of the Sky Concealment Technique, Lin Xing''s body was even more agile than a cloud. He shot out a large amount of Death God Power, turning it into a sharp sword.


    Taking advantage of the opening, Lin Qi dashed towards the Blood Unicorn Fruit, uprooted the Qilin tree, and threw it into the soul hole.


    Seeing this scene, Yun Chi''s mind shook. He had put the Qilin tree into his soul hole, why hadn''t he thought of this before!


    At the same time, Ye Feihua saw this and was also stunned. He sincerely gave Lin Xing a thumbs up.


    "Hand over the Qilin tree. Kowtow a hundred more times towards me, and I might be able to let you go. " Yun Chi''s face was ashen.


    Lin Xing ignored him and rushed out.


    The Qilin tree being pulled out immediately caused the swamp to shake. Countless centipedes drilled out at the same time, and Yun Chi, who was chasing after Lin Xing, appeared. He was actually stopped by a group of centipedes.


    From within the centipede''s encirclement came a heaven-shaking roar.


    "Hurry up and leave." Steadying himself on the ground, Lin Xing did not wait for Ye Feihua''s reply and immediately dashed off into the distance.


    Although Yun Chi was entangled by the centipede, he would only be for a short period of time. His strength was unfathomable. With Lin Xing''s current cultivation, even ten of him would not be able to defeat him.


    Once he caught up, he would die without a doubt.


    Ye Feihua decisively caught up with him. He sped along at top speed until he reached the front of the army camp.


    Seeing that the army was still there, Lin Qi finally let out a sigh of relief. He was safe now.


    Some of the soldiers cried out in alarm as they noticed Lin Xing returning.


    At this moment, the sky was bright. Lin Xing had disappeared for an entire night and everyone was burning with anxiety.


    The four elephants ran over quickly. Seeing that Lin Qi was fine, they all let out a sigh of relief. Gao Yan asked, "Xing Di, where did you run off to last night?"


    His words were laced with blame. If something were to happen to Lin Xing, his morale would collapse.


    "I went out to take a look." Lin Qi did not want to say much, so he gave her a perfunctory answer.


    He then asked, "Was there anything abnormal last night?"


    "No, aside from you, there is another missing soldier. He returned in the middle of the night. Everything else is normal." Gao Yan said.


    After hearing that, Lin Xing nodded his head slowly. It seemed that it was normal.


    He turned his head to look at Ye Feihua and said, "In an hour, I will break out of the encirclement."


    Ye Feihua laughed lightly, "Sure. I''ll go out and prepare. "


    Lin Xing asked in surprise, "You won''t be tempted by the Blood Lin fruits?"


    "Of course I''m tempted. This thing is extremely useful to anyone. However, if I catch you later, everything on your body will belong to me. " Ye Feihua smiled mysteriously.


    "Hur hur, let''s see if you have the ability to do so." Lin Qi pursed his lips.


    Ye Feihua rolled her eyes at him and then walked out of the mountain.


    Not long after he left, Gao Yan scratched his head and curiously asked, "Who is this woman?"


    Not only did Lin Xing disappear for an entire night, he even brought back a young lady with him. This was a rarely seen spiritual mountain.


    "Don''t you know him? She''s Ye Feihua. " Lin Qi was surprised.


    "What?" "Ye Feihua!"


    All the officers jumped up in shock. It was simply inconceivable.


    "Hurry, send people to chase him. We must capture Ye Feihua alive."


    Gao Yan snapped out of his daze and issued a forceful command.


    Soon after, a large group of people dashed out of the military camp in pursuit of Ye Feihua.


    In response, Lin Qi helplessly shook his head. He did not stop them because it was already very difficult to catch up to them.


    He ordered, "Prepare to set off. We''ll break out of the encirclement in an hour."

 C55

    The army was ready to go, everything was ready. After a night of rest, every one of them was brimming with vigor and vitality.


    Lin Xing sat on a rock, holding a branch in his hand and lightly scratching the ground. The scouts kept snooping and reporting, and now they''d laid out a complete map of the sect''s defenses.


    Staring at the picture on the ground, he mused for a long time, but still couldn''t find a single flaw in Ye Feihua''s plan, the so-called path of survival.


    "Brother Xing, an hour has already passed." Lin Xun, who was also one of the Four Symbols, reminded him.


    Letting the army waste their time here was no big deal.


    Suddenly, Lin Qi''s body shook. The tree branch touched the ground, then he casually threw it away. He stood up and said, "Let''s go."


    Then, he jumped onto his horse and dashed out of the mountain.


    He led the army towards a steep mountain area, where a large number of Giant Spirit Corps soldiers were stationed. As soon as he saw this, he drew his sword and gave the order. A hundred thousand men charged up behind him.


    The mountain peaks overlapped with each other here. The steep mountain peaks on both sides of the road were like sharp swords that pierced the hearts and souls of those who saw them.


    Whether it was the mountain or the foot of the mountain, they were all filled with a vast number of Giant Spirit Legion.


    When Ye Feihua heard that Lin Xing had broken through the encirclement, her lips curled up in a cold smile. She commanded the army to annihilate the entire battle.


    Although the terrain here was dangerous, as long as one crossed over a hundred li, they would be flat land. It seemed to be dangerous, but there was still a chance of survival, wasn''t there?


    Furthermore, when Lin Xing ambushed the Giant Spirit Army, the terrain was exactly the same as this.


    Ye Feihua did the same to get her revenge. It was also a matter of course.


    The army fought with all their might. Lin Ming was the first to wake up, his body covered in blood. He threw out the Death God Power, causing the group of soldiers in front of him to fall down, and their bodies to instantly wither.


    This scene caused the Giant Spirit Army to be shocked, but it also excited the one hundred thousand men of the Azure Silver Country.


    After a single charge, they finally made it out of the encirclement after suffering heavy casualties and paying a heavy price.


    At this moment, everyone was bleeding or wounded. Even the four elephants'' bodies were covered in wounds.


    On the other hand, Lin Qi was not injured in the slightest. His Death God Power was too tyrannical, causing large amounts of damage and death.


    He was covered in blood, from the enemy. His eyes glazed over. Killing so many people had caused him to lose his mind.


    However, when he thought of the fact that this was a battlefield, his heart became much calmer.


    "General, there are enemy troops on all sides. We are surrounded again." A scout came to report.


    When these words were said, everyone''s faces turned pale. From the looks of it, the Giant Spirit Army had not thought of letting them leave this place alive.


    Lin Qi''s expression was also extremely gloomy. He raised his head and looked at the sky. After a long time, he lowered his head again, clenched his teeth, and pointed his long sword towards the direction of the Heavenly Sect''s territory.


    "Continue charging."


    He sent out an order and sped towards the Heaven''s Reaching Realm.


    Before long, they came across a large black legion that stretched out in front of them like a mountain. No one under Lin Xing''s command dared to act cowardly. With an expression as if they were facing death, they rushed forward.


    "Could it be that I''ve guessed incorrectly? This isn''t a way out?"


    Lin Qi felt a chill run down his spine as he took a deep breath.


    Or perhaps it could be said that Ye Feihua went back on her word and didn''t give him a chance to live.


    The huge army of 100,000 was once again obstructed. Whether they would die or be crippled, there were only seventy to eighty thousand people left who could continue to fight.


    However, no one retreated. Even before they died, they didn''t forget to carry a corpse on their back. They were all immersed in a bloody battle.


    "General, look! That''s the flag of our army!"


    "Reinforcements have arrived."


    Some people noticed an anomaly in the distance during the battle, while another large group of black shadow swept over like a tidal wave.


    It was the reinforcements from the Heaven Sect. They had come to save them.


    Everyone''s expression was one of great shock and ecstasy. After another chance at survival had appeared, they became more and more courageous as the battle continued.


    Lin Qi saw that the troops behind him were just fooling around, there were at least 700,000-800,000 soldiers and horses behind them. After exchanging blows with them, the Giant Spirit Army soldiers were defeated and had no choice but to retreat.


    The two of them met. Hu Jue cupped his hands and said, "General, I am too late."


    "Not too late, not too late." Lin Qi patted the horse''s back.


    "General, you''re being too willful this time. The general has been worried about you for several days, and he has not been able to borrow any of these troops or horses." Hu Jue sighed.


    Lin Xing frowned and said, "No matter what, I can still borrow a horse?"


    Hu Jue sighed and said, "It was the great general who first moved the spirit of Yin Valley. He gave me eight hundred thousand soldiers and horses with the spirit power of Yin Valley. "To rescue the general."


    "When I return, I really should thank this senior sister from the past."


    The group of people led by Gan Chi did not even bother to ask if he was alive or dead. It would be more straightforward if he was dead.


    If there were no Yin Valley Spirit Stones, he would have been completely covered in horse hide''s skin and corpses.


    "Return to the army. There are still millions of soldiers of the Giant Spirit Sect. They are currently surrounding us. Quickly retreat!" Lin Xing said.


    Hu Jue solemnly nodded his head and with a wave of his hand, all the soldiers and horses retreated back into the Heavenly Reaches.


    Along the way, Hu Zheng told Lin Xing another thing, Jue this time unexpectedly, against Liu Fengyu''s act of not saving the dead. Lin Shen also stood on Lin Shen''s side, and together with the Yin Valley Spirit, they pressured Liu Fengyu and Qian Que.


    "She has a little conscience." Lin Xing pursed his lips and said.


    When the army returned to the camp, Lin Shen stood outside, anxiously waiting for Lin Xing and the four elephants to return.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that he had yet to recover from his injuries, he would have accompanied Hu Jue to kill his way over.


    Lin Xing dismounted from his horse and ordered the army to return to their respective camps. Then, Hu Jue and the four elephants walked up to Lin Shen.


    Lin Shen also quickly walked over. As soon as he arrived, he cursed loudly, and even his fingers were trembling.


    "You unfilial son, you were so willful that you almost caused the loss of one hundred thousand soldiers of my Azure Silver Country in the battlefield. Immediately scram back to your homeland."


    Lin Qi was helpless and did not dare to refute. There was no need to refute. This was indeed a hot-blooded decision he made without thinking.


    "Foster father, didn''t we all return safely? This matter cannot be entirely blamed on Brother Xing, we are also responsible. " The four elephants came up to comfort her.


    "Hmph, there''s still the four of you. I haven''t said anything yet. After battling with me for so long, could it be that he''s also so ignorant? "A trivial one hundred thousand soldiers actually dare to go in alone. It is fortunate that Miss Yin came out to borrow my help this time. Otherwise, all of you would be cold corpses now." Lin Shen berated.


    Hu Jue couldn''t bear to see this any longer, so he walked up to them and said, "Great General, these young generals might have been wrong, but they have done well." They chased Ye Feihua''s middle army for two thousand miles, proud and proud of our Sky Sect. "


    Lin Shen grunted and waved his hand, "You can all go back and rest. I''ll deal with you guys another day."


    Lin Qi rubbed his nose with a helpless look on his face. His father was cold on the outside but hot on the inside. His temper hadn''t changed at all.

 C56

    "Young Master, Liu Fengyu was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he heard that you had returned safely."


    Inside the tent, Lin Xing was sitting on a wooden stake. Ah Shan laughed as he thought about Liu Fengyu''s flustered and exasperated look.


    "Liu Fengyu''s talent is extremely high, and he has a very high position in the Sky Sect. If you also hate me, then my days in the future will not be good." Lin Xing frowned.


    With this reminder, Ah Shan stopped laughing and sighed: "Liu Fengyu is a proud and arrogant man, he has never accepted defeat, but after suffering such a huge blow this time, it would be hard for him not to hate you. The key point is, Young Master, after his defeat, you led your men and horses to raid Ye Feihua''s center, this is simply slapping him in the face."


    Lin Qi smiled bitterly. He did not think of this at the time.


    Ashan proudly said, "Speaking of which, it''s that Liu Fengyu who is not as skilled as others and does not know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. He really thinks he is invincible."


    "Shh."


    Lin Qi quickly made a silent gesture to make him lower his voice.


    The more Ah Shan said, the more excited he became. He was not afraid at all as he said, "Heh heh, you still want to win against our young master? In your next life?"


    Just a moment ago, a delicate figure walked into the tent silently, listening to everything that Ashan had said.


    She was a Yin Valley Spirit, and her cultivation was extraordinary. She appeared at the entrance of the tent like a ghost.


    Ashan''s back was facing her and did not notice her appearance. He wanted to continue bragging about Lin Qi, but the latter abruptly stood up and slammed his hands on the table.


    He shouted at Ah Shan, "Enough, Liu Fengyu is the dignified chief disciple of the Sky Ascension Sect. Many people want to cling onto him, but have no way to do so. If he wants to kill me, it will be easier than crushing an ant."


    Ah Shan was stunned. It was the first time he had seen his young master so angry. It was also the first time he had seen his young master flattering someone without holding back.


    Lin Qi raised his hand up to his waist and pointed a finger at Ashan''s back. Ashan turned around in shock, and was immediately scared out of his wits.


    "The head disciple of the Sky Sect was actually called worthless by you?" The Yin Valley spirit walked over with graceful steps, bringing with it a sweet scent.


    Ashan was at a loss for words. His face was pale and his scalp was trembling, unable to utter a single word.


    Lin Qi waved his hand to tell him to get out of the tent as quickly as possible. Ah Shan acted as if he had received amnesty. He dared not stay in this tent any longer. He ran out like a wisp of smoke.


    "Even if Liu Fengyu doesn''t understand military matters and is losing troops, he is still one of the top five disciples of our Sky Sect. Isn''t it a little unreasonable for you to criticize him like this?"


    The Yin Valley Spirit knew that Lin Qi''s last flattering words were just for her to see. She was a little angry with what Ah Shan had said.


    Lin Qi laughed, ashamed to the extreme. He quickly changed the topic and said, "Thank you so much for your assistance this time."


    This time, if it wasn''t for the fact that the Yin Valley''s spirit had helped them out, he and the hundred thousand soldiers would have been buried in the land of the Giant Spirit.


    "No need to thank me. Like I said, you were once my junior. You''ve been a sensation, a glory. It''s worth my help. " The Yin Valley spirit said.


    Lin Xing forced out a smile and said, "I still have to thank you. One day, I will also help you."


    The Yin Valley spirit gave a noncommittal smile as she did not think much of it. Lin Xing''s Ancient God Physique could only allow him to reach the Heaven Smiting Stage, and she had already entered the Heaven Calamity Realm. What could Lin Xing possibly do to help her?


    "She''s even leading a hundred thousand strong army to help her kill the enemy?"


    "Speaking of which, I do remember something. With your current cultivation level, you can absolutely join my Sky Sect and become an inner disciple. With this title, at least no one will dare bully you in the Heavenly Mystery Realm in the future. " The Yin Valley''s Spirit Eyes were like starlight as they slowly opened their mouths.


    It was good that this matter was not mentioned. Lin Xing''s heart was filled with derision. He already felt a chill in his heart. Even if he was an elder, he would never enter the Heavenly Ascension Sect again.


    He mocked himself, "My Master and those elders couldn''t wait to kill me right? After all, I haven''t paid my debt. "


    The spirit of the Yin Valley sighed, mixed with the sound of regret. If Lin Xing was able to break through the shackles of the Ancient God''s body, who could contend against him now? Even Liu Fengyu had to stand aside.


    If he was able to successfully step into the Heaven Smiting Stage, he would also be the pride of the heavens who had the most hope to compete with Giant Leviathan in the future.


    Unfortunately, there was no such thing as'' if ''.


    Although Lin Qi had been recultivating and had advanced at a god-like speed, it was still impossible for him to break that curse.


    The entire general''s estate, and even the entire Azure Silver Country, had fallen into a vortex of disaster.


    Especially two years ago, he was like a street rat scolding the wrong way.


    Subsequently, he chatted with the Yin Valley Spirit for a long time and inquired about news about his old friends.


    For example, Senior Sister Cang Xiaoxiao was forbidden from leaving the mountain by the azure jade stone, and even more so, she was forbidden from coming to find Lin Xing.


    Just the last letter, she had spent a lot of effort to deliver it.


    He heaved a long sigh, feeling moved in his heart. He missed that beautiful countenance of hers so much that he wanted to hug her. But with his current strength, he had no qualifications to do so, much less have the face to enter the Skysplit Sect.


    After the Yin Valley spirit had left, Lin Xing also slowly walked out of his tent and arrived at Lin Shen''s residence.


    Lin Shen saw him walk in and turned her back to him.


    "Father, who wouldn''t be hot-blooded when they were young? Why are they still angry?" Lin Xing walked up to him and coaxed him.


    He then gently said, "I heard that back then, because a small soldier was killed by the Red Luan Country, you directly ordered five hundred thousand soldiers to attack the city. Hmm, if my grandfather was still alive at that time, he would have surely been angered to death by you."


    "Hmph, let''s not talk about the matters of the past." Lin Shen said with a complicated expression.


    Lin Qi smiled craftily as he replied, "Since this is an old affair, why are you still angry at me?"


    "I''m angry at you, not because you are hot-blooded and recklessly want revenge, but because this battlefield is too big, it''s not something you can control. You are no longer the genius of the ancient times, there''s no need to force your way out." Lin Xing could not help but let out a deep sigh.


    "I know, Father, I know I was wrong," Lin Xing replied with difficulty.


    Lin Shen waved his hand, stood up, and said to him, "Recently, Qian Que and Liu Fengyu have been colluding to cause trouble for you. Especially since you have been trying to sell the leaf to the enemy every day, you should go back to the country tomorrow."


    Lin Qi nodded his head. Since the Giant Spirit Army had retreated, there was no need for him to stay here any longer.


    "Father, I have something I want to give you." Lin Xing said.


    "What is it?" Lin Shen did not take it seriously at all.


    Lin Qi gave a mysterious smile and said, "Close your eyes and open your mouth, and you will know."


    "Could it be some miracle medicine?" Lin Shen''s face finally started to ripple.

 C57

    Lin Shen hesitated for a moment, but chose to do so. Closing her eyes, she gently opened her mouth.


    "No, father, you have to open your mouth a bit more." Lin Qi reminded.


    Lin Shen hesitated for a moment and thought for a long time. Finally, she reluctantly opened her mouth wide.


    With a wave of his hand, Lin Qi took out a Blood Qilin fruit from his soul hole and forcefully stuffed it into Lin Shen''s mouth.


    Then, before he could even react, his palm had propped up his chin, causing him to directly swallow the palm-sized Blood Qilin fruit into his stomach.


    Lin Shen''s body shook as he held his throat and retched. He wanted to vomit but was unable to do so.


    "Little bastard, what did you give me to eat?" Lin Shen flew into a rage.


    Lin Qi did not reply, but observed his every move. Soon, Lin Shen''s skin was burning, red and hot, smoke rising from his seven orifices. His entire body seemed to be burning.


    His hair was tied up, the veins on his arms and forehead were popping out, thick smoke was constantly coming out of his mouth and nose, and his face was slightly contorted, showing an expression of pain.


    "You little bastard, are you trying to kill me?" Lin Shen was truly a little angry. In fact, it was really painful.


    Lin Qi was stupefied, and his face was filled with astonishment. In fact, he didn''t know what reaction the Blood Lin fruits would have if he swallowed them.


    He had been too careless. He should have allowed his father to swallow this first. Wasn''t this a scam?


    However, he was able to discern that although the Blood Unicorn Fruit caused Lin Shen to feel pain, it wouldn''t cause his life to be in danger.


    As he thought of this, his heart relaxed. Seeing how his father was enraged, his legs softened, and he ran away gloomily.


    When they were far away from the camp, they could still hear their father''s roar. They were so shocked that a large number of the soldiers were at a loss, thinking that an assassin had barged in.


    Lin Xing reminded him that the great general was currently training, so there was no need to disturb him.


    Only then did everyone return to their posts with weird looks on their faces.


    On his way back to his tent, he met an old friend, Jue.


    If they collided head on, it would be impossible to dodge. Especially for Jue, the embarrassment on his face was obvious.


    "Have you been doing well these past two years?"


    The two of them stopped and looked at each other. Jue guiltily lowered his head and asked gently.


    Lin Xing was unperturbed. He calmly replied, "It''s quite alright. What about you?"


    Jue raised his head, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes as he said, "I''m doing quite well too."


    It had been two years, but when they met for the first time, they were speechless. When he chose to follow Liu Fengyu, he was destined to break off all ties with Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi was clear about this, and a gap had already formed in his heart. What happened in the past was like a wind blowing into the distance, and in the future, they would be the same type of people.


    "Since it''s all right, then I will go back. It''s not good to be seen by Brother Liu." Jue sighed, also feeling some regret. He sympathized very much with what Lin Ming had experienced.


    He brushed past him.


    "Hold on."


    She had only taken two steps when she was stopped by Lin Xing. She turned around with her hands clasped together, twisting and turning her fingers. For some reason, she felt uncomfortable in front of Lin Qi. Perhaps it was due to guilt.


    "I heard that I was able to return safely this time. You spoke up for my father, which is why I have a chance to mobilize eight hundred thousand soldiers. Thank you."


    No matter what, since Jue had helped him, no matter what happened in the future, he still had to thank her.


    "Then I will accept your thanks, big brother Lin Xing." Xuan Jue''s face was gentle as it emitted a faint red light.


    Hearing her address him, Lin Qi felt as if his heart had been pierced by needles. His face revealed a look of melancholy and nostalgia.


    Calming himself down, he opened his mouth and smiled. Then, he took a step forward and left. His back was facing the opposite direction and they would never meet again.


    That Xuan Jue shook his head and bitterly smiled. With his back facing them, he also left. Lin Qi was destined to stop at the Heaven Smiting Stage for his entire life, but she still had the potential to reach even higher heights.


    He returned to his tent and rested for the night. The next day, he quietly left with Ah Shan.


    The 50,000 officers of Black Wind Mountain that came with him had also stayed behind. His father spoke softly here and needed the army to increase its strength. As for the affairs of the Azure Silver Country, he was confident that he could handle them.


    In addition, there were two elephants guarding the border. They also had an army in their hands, so if there really were any special circumstances, it wouldn''t be too late for them to transfer them over.


    Lin Xing and Ah Shan were in a good mood as they strolled along the road, enjoying the scenery and sightseeing. It took them a full twenty days before they returned to the general''s mansion.


    What made him surprised was that two months had passed, and that fairy called ''Kid Liang'' still hadn''t left. This included many Flower Protectors.


    Of course, there were also a few Flower Protectors who left impatiently, leaving behind people who were blindly obsessed with fairies.


    After returning to the manor, Lin Xing returned to his room to rest.


    Although he had left for a very long time, the system had not changed. There were also those businesses that were still operating, and every day, a large amount of spirit crystals would enter the treasury.


    Lin Xing had just fallen asleep when Gu Yuan burst through the door. After he received the news that Lin Xin had returned, he couldn''t wait to find him.


    Lin Xing knew that he cared about his father. Otherwise, with his impassive personality, nothing could make him panic.


    "What is the situation on this trip? Is there anything wrong with your foster father? " Gu Yuan rushed into the room and asked this question. Furthermore, he asked two questions in a row.


    Lin Qi smiled as he shook his head. Walking up to him, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Father is fine. The front lines have regained their calm."


    Gu Yuan nodded with ease. It could be seen that he was truly happy from the bottom of his heart.


    He was the adopted son of Lin Shen, who lived with his sister until he was three years old. Lin Shen saw that he had extraordinary roots, so he brought him back to the mansion to be nurtured.


    Lin Xing asked, "How is everything in the estate?"


    "Everything is normal. That fairy also strictly ordered that no one was allowed to disturb her cultivation, so no one dared to cause trouble." Gu Yuan said.


    Lin Qi knew that this was all just the surface talk of this kid. Who knew where he had gone to look for the Lost City behind his back? However, this was good as well. Even the general''s manor was basking in the light, intimidating a group of small fries.


    After that, Lin Xing recounted his experiences in detail to Gu Yuan.


    Gu Yuan was also extremely shocked as the corners of his mouth twitched.


    After that, Gu Yuan left and Lin Xing slept soundly. Everything in the general''s manor became quiet.


    According to the rules, those who came with the fairy could not stay in the general''s manor without the spirit crystals. Every day, there would be people who came after the news.


    Lin Xing ordered his men to expand the general''s mansion, building it for the people to live in. This was a huge income.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing issued another rule: I can only stay here for five hundred spirit crystals for one month. After one month, I have to collect the fees, or else I will pack up my bags and leave.


    Immediately, the entire city was abuzz with curses and insults, all aimed at him. Someone was holding a Pig Slaughtering Knife and was speaking out in front of the general''s manor, wanting to challenge his authority. Lin Xing must be crazy to think about money, right?

 C58

    In the dead of night, the bright moon hung high in the sky, as if it was within reach.


    Inside the room, Lin Xing was sitting cross-legged. His entire body was suffused with a red glow, as if a ball of fire was burning. The radiance radiated in all directions, blinding everyone''s eyes.


    The intense pain caused the youth''s face to twist slightly. Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead as he gritted his teeth.


    In the blink of an eye, he swallowed a Blood Qilin Fruit, and the moment it entered his mouth, it dissolved into a stream of warmth that flowed into his internal organs.


    Subsequently, it filled every meridian in his body. Accompanied by the circulation of his blood, that strand of fiery energy could be clearly felt.


    The next thing he felt was endless pain, as if he was being tortured in his intestines. His life force had been burnt dry, and his skin was cracked from the explosion.


    He finally understood why his father would roar like that.


    In fact, it really did hurt.


    However, the effect was also very obvious. Just from his aura alone, it was as if he had transformed into a divine beast. The pressure he exuded was astonishing, and he radiated with a fierce aura.


    The blood in his body circulated rapidly as his meridians slowly expanded. A large amount of spirit energy poured into his meridians from the outside. This Blood Qilin Fruit actually had the effect of changing his physique?!


    He was shocked and excited.


    He was born with the Ancient God''s body. When he was struck by the divine retribution back then, not to mention his cultivation level, the Ancient God''s body also became half disabled. Once again, the effect was greatly reduced.


    Now, after swallowing a Blood Qilin fruit, he actually discovered that this fruit could heal the ancient god''s body. How could this not make him ecstatic?


    He knew better than anyone how terrifying the Ancient God''s body was. If it wasn''t for the rejection and curse from the heavens, he would definitely have become a God.


    Compared to the Four Appearances Body, it was even better.


    That was why Cang Yushi was still willing to put in all his effort to nurture Lin Xing even though he knew that the Ancient God''s body had been exiled.


    Once he grew up, it would be the birth of a Great Honored Warrior.


    Enduring the intense pain, the youth''s cool eyes revealed determination and tenacity, and he withdrew a Blood Qilin Fruit from his soul hole before swallowing it in the blink of an eye.


    For an ordinary person, swallowing a single Blood Qilin fruit would be an arduous task. However, the endless pain was unbearable. But Lin Xing had to swallow two of these in a short period of time; he simply didn''t want to live.


    At that time, the Qilin tree had been uprooted by him, and along with a large amount of soil, he had put it into his spirit cave. Afterwards, there was the phenomenon of exhaustion. Lin Xing found a mud basin and planted the Qilin tree inside it, alleviating its rate of withering.


    However, the Soul Cave was not like the real world after all. It was difficult to sustain its vitality for too long.


    This was also the reason why he had gone all out. If he did not refine it now, it would be the end of him. It would truly be a loss to him.


    After a long period of time, the flames around his body dispersed and his skin gradually returned to its original state. He opened his eyes and shot out a fierce light, as if he was being targeted by a divine beast from ancient times.


    At the same time, his cultivation base had risen to the peak of the Unity Realm, and he was half a step into the Division Dao Realm.


    In reality, he had already refined either divine power or immortal energy. He was suppressing them and accumulating his strength, so he had a bold idea in his mind.


    This thought was derived from an unknown force.


    The power was strange and subtle, no longer one of the five paths he was familiar with. He guessed that it was most likely the Heavenly Origin of the Dragon Faction.


    With the mace in hand, spiritual energy first rushed into the mace, then refined and drilled out. At the same time, it gave birth to a type of Heavenly Source.


    In reality, of the Six Paths of the Heavens, only four types of power were recognized: divine power, Immortal energy, nether energy, and Heavenly Source.


    As for the Body Severing Faction, they focused on body and soul cultivation, and as such, they focused more on their divine power cultivation. It was the same as the sword immortals in the immortal gate. However, their absolute bodies were inherited from the ancient times and were acknowledged by the heavens. However, the sword immortals were only fully formed in the ancient times and had never been able to break out of the immortal gate.


    As for the Hidden Sky Meridian, it was the art and Dao created by Zang Tian Zun. He hadn''t created a new type of power yet, so it was fine whether he was a Deity or an Immortal.


    In the morning, the light was still bright as it penetrated through the thin fog. The hazy, blazing sun was faintly discernible.


    When a servant saw Lin Xing "finally" leave the room, he hurried to inform Ah Shan.


    Seeing the servant''s expression, Lin Xing''s heart skipped a beat. While he was in seclusion, something must have happened in the mansion.


    When Ashan heard that the young master had come out of seclusion, he rushed over in a flustered manner.


    "Young Master, you''ve finally come out."


    "What happened?" Lin Xing frowned and asked.


    "Two days ago, I sent someone to Black Wind Mountain to buy the Withered Leaf. I didn''t expect that on the way back, all three carriages of Withered Leaf would be robbed, and all the soldiers that were being escorted would be killed as well." Ashan''s face was full of self-blame.


    Lin Qi''s expression changed as he asked, "Why didn''t you tell me about such a big matter?"


    Ah Shan lowered his head, and said with worry, "You were in closed door cultivation at that time, so I didn''t dare to disturb you. I notified Young Master Gu Yuan first, and he went to investigate personally. "


    Lin Xing then nodded his head and asked, "Have you found any clues?"


    "Nothing." Ashan shook his head, his expression bitter and cold.


    Lin Qi''s expression was gloomy, the light in his eyes like a sword. To dare to attack the general''s manor, he must have had nothing to fear.


    After a moment of consideration, he already had a rough idea of what was going on.


    "Young master, there are so many dragons and serpents in our Azure Silver Country. Is it possible that it was one of Fairy''s Flower Protectors who did it?" Ashan was surprised.


    "That won''t happen. They came from far away, and they are all disciples of large sects with powerful backgrounds. Besides, the withered thunder leaf is not a miracle medicine, so what use do they have in seizing it?"


    Lin Xing''s eyes turned cold as he said, "The person who stole the withering thunder leaf, there''s no need to guess. He must have a grudge with our General''s Estate."


    "Prime Minister''s Estate." Ashan exclaimed.


    "Mm. Inform Gu Yuan that tonight is the night that we will head to the Prime Minister''s residence." We must snatch the withering thunder leaf back. " Lin Qi''s face was extremely gloomy as he secretly clenched his fists.


    After that, Ah Shan walked towards Gu Yuan''s room, while Lin Xing walked around the mansion minding his own business.


    Unconsciously, he arrived at the place where the boy lived. From start to finish, a large group of people would gather there every day to escort the celestial maiden. Whenever there was a bit of instruction, a group of escorts would go through fire and water without any hesitation.


    When he walked over, there was immediately a person who stood in front of him, preventing him from going over.


    He was He Chen from the Giant Spirit Sect, a Dao Seeking expert.


    "This is my territory. Can''t I pay a visit to the fairy?" Lin Qi sneered.


    "This won''t do. We have already paid for the spirit crystals, so the place we are living in temporarily doesn''t belong to you." Moreover, fairy''s body is extraordinary, who do you think you are to pay a visit to? " As a disciple of the Giant Spirit Sect, He Chen was still one of the top geniuses even though he couldn''t compare to the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "Exactly, a mere cultivator from a small country actually dares to come and make fun of me."


    "Even if we wanted to meet Fairy, it wouldn''t be easy. Where did your courage come from?"


    The crowd burst into laughter, not leaving a single shred of face for Lin Xing.


    What really made Lin Xing angry was He Chen''s next sentence.


    "It''s fine if you want to go over, but you have to crawl under my crotch first."

 C59

    He Chen was laughing in a high and mighty manner, not noticing Lin Xing''s expression at all.


    His face sank as killing intent surged from the bottom of his heart. He Chen was too arrogant, stirring up his killing intent.


    This was a powerful force that was enough to destroy the entire Green Silver Country. Recently, the general''s mansion had not been in a good position to create unnecessary trouble and provoke a large number of powerful enemies, so he held it in. He didn''t attack out of anger.


    Squeak...


    Just then, the door opened and a figure dressed in white appeared.


    He Chen''s maniacal laughter instantly froze. He put on a scholarly air as he turned around and walked over.


    The kid''s clothes were like snow, his black hair was like ink, and his long body was like jade. It was smooth and beautiful. He didn''t pay attention to He Chen''s every move. Instead, he stared at Lin Xing as a melodious voice drifted out of his ear. "Come in and take a seat."


    "What ¡­"


    The gentle smile on He Chen''s face stiffened. He had also stopped walking. The crowd, including those around him, were all abuzz with shock and disbelief.


    In their minds, there had never been anyone who had entered the Fairy''s room before. Even the Yin Valley Spirit and Giant Spirit Stone that had come to visit couldn''t do it. How could a small person in the advanced realm be able to get the fairy''s favor?


    The group of people were astonished and jealous, especially He Chen. A cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, making everyone''s heart palpitate.


    Lin Qi faintly smiled, taking in the expressions of the people around him. It was now his turn to be proud of himself.


    In the end, his gaze fixed on the boy. He stood tall and had a hazy immortal aura. It was impossible to see through the hidden beauty behind the white sand, but he looked even more beautiful than before. His cultivation had also increased by a lot.


    He strode into the room and brushed shoulders with He Chen. A provocative smile appeared on the latter''s face as his mind trembled. An endless killing intent surged out, locking onto Lin Qi. If it wasn''t for Fairy Lin present, he would have really taken action.


    He closed the door and took a look at the furnishings, but it was very ordinary. A faint fragrance filled the air, refreshing the heart and soul. It was also very bright.


    Kid Cool sat on a bench. Pouring a cup of tea, he poured himself a cup and took a sip.


    Lin Xing did not hold back and sat down as well. He poured a cup of tea into the cup in front of him and savored it.


    The water was sweet and refreshing, but once it reached his stomach, it turned into a warm current, causing his body to tremble. Looking at the tea in the cup, he drank it all in one gulp and poured another four to five cups of tea.


    It was obvious that this water was not something from the general''s manor, but something that he had brought along with him. It could be called immortal water, and was extraordinary. It had the effect of calming the heart and calming the heart, as well as raising one''s cultivation.


    Seeing him like this, the brat Leng Xiao couldn''t help but twitch his mouth and say in a deep voice, "If you want to drink, I''ll give you two pots. Take it back and slowly drink. Please pay attention to your image in front of me."


    Lin Xing was overjoyed. With a grin, he nodded his head and said, "Sure, sure."


    The brat''s mouth twitched as he glanced at him. Then, he took out two porcelain bottles from the soul hole. These bottles had exquisite patterns on their surface, and a faint blue light could be seen on them.


    Lin Qi hurriedly stuffed the two porcelain bottles into the soul hole, afraid that they would be snatched away if he was a step too slow.


    Upon seeing this scene, the boy was slightly surprised. If her senses were not wrong, it should be a soul fluctuation. After staying here for a long time, he had also heard of Lin Qi''s deeds and could not help but feel regret.


    "Do you think I''m your group of Protectors? I have a dignified appearance and I don''t have any good intentions behind the scenes. Their elegance will only show in front of a goddess like you." And to me, you''re not that interesting. " Lin Xing had just taken someone else''s gift, but was immediately thrown back at them.


    The little guy was angry, as if he was being desecrated. His eyes shone with a cold light as he said, "You''re even worse than them, and you even sent people to monitor me." "If it weren''t for the fact that you helped me treat my wounds, I would have long since destroyed this general''s mansion."


    Lin Qi laughed and said, "Fairy, I think you''ve misunderstood. With your strength, who in my Mansion will be able to find a trace of you?" In this period of time, you have almost traveled the entire Azure Silver Country, haven''t you? "


    "With your identity, how would you know my purpose in coming here?" The kid was surprised and looked at him with ill intentions.


    "You don''t need to know. I just want to tell you that I''m very interested in that Lost City!" Lin Xing shook his head, his tone tactful.


    "You?"


    The little brat coldly laughed, feeling extremely disdainful. Lin Xing really did not know how high the sky and how deep the earth was.


    "Let me tell you, the majority of the people following me are also here for the Lost City. With your strength, do you dare to fight against them? " Little Liang said.


    Lin Xing then poured out another cup of tea from the porcelain bottle and gently crushed it in his mouth. This was truly an endless aftertaste.


    He shook the cup in his hand and said confidently, "If I don''t give it a try, how would I know?"


    The little brat sneered in disdain. He didn''t look favorably at all. Furthermore, that ancient city had disappeared for so many years. Rumor had it that it was extremely dangerous, and even she wasn''t completely confident, let alone a nameless person like Lin Xing, who was in the same realm as him.


    "But then again, let''s find it first. Otherwise, everything will just be empty talk. " Lin Xing said seriously.


    The kid gave a cold snort. Why did it feel like he was being used? There was anger in his heart. Although she knew that the group of Flower Protectors were most likely here for the Lost City, Lin Xing''s words made her a little angry.


    In fact, she already had a rough idea of where she was going to be. If things went according to her expectations, then she should be able to gain something in the near future.


    "And what about that Great Tomb Slaughter?" Lin Xing directly asked.


    "Are you investigating this? Even the Great Tomb Slaughter has been pulled out! " This time, Lin Xing''s curiosity was too great.


    "No. I was just asking. " Lin Xing said.


    In fact, he truly did not. Due to the curiosity in his heart, he asked that question.


    "It''s best if you don''t, I''m warning you, don''t spread the news of the Great Tomb Slaughter, or else it will cause a huge stir in the entire world. That''s also a secret I unintentionally discovered. " The kid said coldly.


    "That serious?" Lin Xing was stunned, he had already exceeded the limits of what he could bear. After a moment of silence, he continued, "If even someone stronger than you were here, would you be able to discover it as well?"


    The young man let out a sigh and nodded. "I can''t rule out that possibility because too much time has passed and the seal has loosened. That''s why I found out that it was only then that I was able to barge in and get injured." Even just thinking about it caused my heart to palpitate. "


    "If that''s the case, then this matter cannot be hidden for too long!" Lin Qi pondered. Think of a countermeasure. If this matter were to be exposed, it would be just as Kid Liang said. It would cause all the other absolute large sects in the world to tremble, so he could not not not take it seriously.


    "As long as I can hide it." The kid sighed.


    Glimmers danced in Lin Qi''s eyes as a question arose in his heart. He had a nagging feeling that this brat had his own selfish thoughts and wasn''t just concerned for the safety of the Kingdom of Qingyin.

 C60

    The matter regarding the Great Tomb Slaughter had been greatly implicated. He was a genuine Great Honored Warrior with a power that covered the skies, comparable to gods and demons of ancient times. If one didn''t handle this situation well, it was very likely that it would lead to a bloody war.


    This was no longer as simple as assigning the army to a "small fight". Who knows, even the clan elders would come forth to fight. This kind of existence was destined to turn into a river of blood the moment they made a move.


    Furthermore, they were in the territory of the Green Silver Country. Once the war started, the Green Silver Nation would be the first to be used as cannon fodder. It was not impossible to overturn the territory of the Green Silver Country, and there would not be any waves.


    Lin Qi had no choice but to pay more attention to this matter. He chatted with the boy for a while longer before leaving. First, he found Ah Shan and ordered him to send out more manpower to supervise the area within a hundred miles of the cave.


    Anyone who stepped into that realm would be killed. Any powerful expert who did so would be lured away at all costs.


    This had to be done in secret and not leak out the slightest bit.


    In fact, he knew that this matter was destined to be hard to conceal for a long time. It could be three to five years, or it could be decades, or it could even be a hundred years. What he needed the most now was time to cultivate. Only by becoming stronger would he be able to protect himself in the future conflicts.


    At night, the lanterns were suspended in the air. The surroundings emitted a halo of light, hazy yet holy.


    The Prime Minister''s Mansion was as bright as day. There was a huge brazier burning everywhere, and from a distance, it looked like there was a fire going on.


    Ever since this boy Liang had entered the capital, he had attracted a large group of young elites. Whether they were disciples of large sects or princes of some country, they all came to catch a glimpse of the fairy.


    Half of the residences of the generals were taken by Fang Tan and Lu Fan to the Prime Minister''s residence.


    Every day has the delicacy of the mountain and the sea, the night and the song, every day gathered together to talk about life.


    As for the expenses, Fang Tan did not care about them at all. To the Prime Minister''s estate, they were nothing more than a drop in the ocean.


    The people in front of him were all people with extraordinary backgrounds. Their own faction was even stronger than Fang Tan in the Azure Silver Country. As long as they could get on good terms with each other, this small amount of money was not worth mentioning.


    Tonight, another large group of people sat down and chatted merrily as they enjoyed themselves. They were both young men and women, and each of them had extraordinary charm. Their origins were not simple, and Zhu Yanghua was also among them.


    They talked about their dreams, sparred about their strength, exchanged cultivation experiences, and found good friends with each other. Fang Tan served them so well that they became intoxicated with him. Many of them even wanted to stay and not leave.


    Of course, the most talkative topic amongst them was still Lin Xing.


    When Lin Xing was mentioned, Fang Tan could feel a burning anger rising from his nostrils and mouth. Recently, he had been slandered quite a few times.


    This was especially the case since the business of the Thunder Withered Leaf had been robbed, blocking his path to wealth.


    Placing his finger on his waist, he placed a leaf on the table and smiled complacently. Coincidentally, his gaze met Zhu Yanghua''s as they raised their wine cups in their hands.


    "Lin Xing, if you break my road to riches then don''t even think of making a fortune. I will make sure that the debts of your General''s Estate are never clear. I will snatch away as many withering thunder leaves as you send."


    He had Zhu Yanghua as his backing, and if Lin Xing dared to go against him, he would be the one to die a horrible death. Not long ago, Lu Fan had also broken through to the Dao separation stage, and he had two Dao realm experts as his guards. The General''s Estate was now nothing in his eyes.


    "Brother Fang, I heard that there was a guy called Lin Xing who was very arrogant and dared to bully you. Is that true?" During the banquet, a youth held a wine cup as he walked towards Fang Tan.


    Fang Tan returned the salute, picked up his wine cup, and just as he took a sip, he put it down.


    "Don''t even mention it, isn''t that the mysterious ancient genius from the past? Even if he were to fall down now, he wouldn''t put me in his eyes, and he even threatened to cultivate again and defeat all the geniuses from the great sects." "How arrogant." Fang Tan said with tears in his voice.


    "What?"


    "Arrogant! Tomorrow, I will go meet him. If I don''t break a few of his ribs, I''ll go with his surname."


    The group of people slapped the table and stood up, indignant.


    "I know that everyone wants to beat him to death, but that fairy lives in his general''s estate, so we can''t anger her." Fang Tan came out to stop them, his face grave with righteousness. I''ll consider it for all of you.


    "That''s right, I already can''t bear to see Lin Xing. If it wasn''t for the fact that I was afraid of disturbing the goddess''s cultivation, I would have rushed into his mansion and captured him alive. I would have let everyone beat him up to ease the anger in my heart." Someone spoke up.


    "I can explain the situation, I only want to challenge Lin Xing and lure him out for a duel. That should be fine, right?" The person from before said.


    Fang Tan nodded his head in agreement. "That''s a good plan," he praised.


    After saying that, everyone burst out into laughter. In their minds, they could already see the image of Lin Xing begging for mercy.


    "There''s no need to lure them out. I''m already here."


    A clear young voice entered everyone''s ears, causing them both to be alarmed and angry.


    Looking in the direction of the voice, Lin Xing flipped himself over from the roof and landed steadily in front of the crowd. He was confident and carefree.


    "Lin Xing, you really dare to come." Fang Tan stood up abruptly. His rage was boundless, but he was also bewildered and uncertain.


    Zhu Yanghua and Lu Fan jumped up from their seats at the same time, jumping in front of Lin Xing, two killing intents locked onto him.


    As well as everyone else in the area, all of them shot him unfriendly looks.


    Was he here to send himself to his death alone?


    However, from the look of his calm demeanor, he didn''t look the same. This caused a great amount of doubt to arise in the hearts of the crowd.


    "This is a small country''s Prime Minister''s Estate. I can come and go as I wish. If anyone here disagrees, feel free to come and fight." Under the unkind gaze of so many people, Lin Qi remained calm.


    Arrogant, arrogant, domineering ¡­


    It was exactly the same as what Fang Tan had described, he didn''t even put them, the disciples, in his eyes at all.


    "Hmph, you came today. If you don''t leave me with my life, I''m afraid you won''t be able to escape." White smoke was coming out of Zhu Yanghua''s nose. When he saw Lin Xing, he was on fire, wanting to tear him into a thousand pieces.


    Lu Fan also agreed. He coldly said, "That''s right. Today, you will undoubtedly die. You will pay the price for your arrogance."


    Lin Xing disdainfully smiled and said, "Do you two really have that much confidence? Since I dared to come here, it means that I am not afraid of you. "


    "Haha ¡­" I know your background very well, Lin Xing. The General''s Estate is your backer, and Lin Shen is your backer. Where did you get the courage to say those words? I don''t believe that fairy will help you. "Oh right, why didn''t you call Gu Yuan here to accompany you in death? Forget it, if I kill you, Gu Yuan will follow closely behind you. No, everyone in the general''s household will accompany you in the Underworld''s underworld."


    Fang Tan laughed with his hands on his waist. Lin Xing had come alone just to seek death.


    Not considering the others, just Zhu Yanghua and Lu Fan, the two powerhouses of the Dao, could not be ignored.

 C61

    "Yes, I won''t deny what you said. Why are you all hesitating? Why aren''t you all coming over to kill me?"


    Lin Xing stretched out his neck, clearly showing that he was going to let him be cut, yet his tone was laced with a thick sense of ridicule.


    This was truly a great mockery. Everyone present was so angered that their eggs were about to turn green.


    He had barged into the Prime Minister''s residence alone and was not afraid of death. They all suspected that Lin Xing had taken the wrong medicine. Or drunk?


    "Little bastard, today I will dig out your heart and drink wine."


    Zhu Yanghua moved like the wind, thunder roared and the surrounding air momentarily froze.


    Suddenly, he closed in on Lin Qi, moving as fast as lightning. He looked flustered as he quickly retreated. With a stomp of his feet, he jumped onto the roof and rushed out of the Prime Minister''s Mansion.


    "Little bastard, like I said, if you don''t leave your life behind today, don''t even think about leaving."


    Zhu Yang''s body trembled, and his Dao-Splitting Qi spread out in all directions as he charged forward to catch up.


    "Let me give you a hand." Lu Fan leaped up and caught up.


    As Zhu Yanghua was running, he turned his head and nodded at him twice, but he did not refuse. He could not miss the chance to kill Lin Xing again.


    "Everyone, let''s continue drinking and wait for the two of them to return with Lin Xing''s head in their hands."


    Fang Tan held the wine cup, his gaze sweeping across everyone''s face. He was the first to drink it all in one gulp, wiping the wine stains on the corner of his mouth as he shouted happily.


    This time, Lin Qi''s intrusion was very strange, appearing very unusual. However, no matter how many tricks he tried, it was all useless in front of his formidable strength.


    Not to mention that both of them had taken action at the same time. Victory and defeat were already decided, and there was no suspense any longer.


    Today, his mood was elated and he wouldn''t leave until he was drunk.


    The scene shifted to Lin Xing, who was running fast. After leaving the Prime Minister''s residence, he ran out of the city and into the wilderness.


    Lu Fan and Zhu Yanghua were in hot pursuit, almost catching up every time. However, the strange thing was that they were ditched. Then, Lin Xing''s figure appeared in their line of sight.


    Without a doubt, even using the brain of a pig, he could tell that Lin Xing was intentionally luring them somewhere.


    The two of them entered the wilderness at the same time, their killing intent locked onto a figure that had their back towards them.


    The man had one hand behind his back and was standing tall and straight. He turned around, revealing his appearance. It was Lin Xing.


    Following that, another person jumped down from a large tree. His face was solemn and his surroundings were filled with chilliness. It was as if he was a piece of ten thousand year old ice that no one could approach.


    "Pick one." Lin Xing calmly said to Gu Yuan.


    Gu Yuan said indifferently, "Zhu Yanghua, he''s a little stronger."


    Lin Qi nodded his head, his eyes focused on Lu Fan. This was the opponent he would be facing in the future.


    "Just the two of you?"


    Zhu Yanghua and Lu Fan were astonished. There weren''t any of the ambushes that they had imagined, only Gu Yuan and Lin Xing were waiting for them.


    Following that, they started to sneer disdainfully. Lin Xing and Gu Yuan had chosen their own opponents, completely ignoring them. How could they bear with this in their hearts? Instantly, rage filled their hearts.


    "Lin Xing, with your current strength, you actually dared to challenge me? You are truly boasting shamelessly. "After I kill you, I will cut off your head and take it to the sect for the disciples to watch. I will cripple your name for ten thousand years."


    Lu Fan viciously opened his mouth and charged towards Lin Qi at the same time, bringing along endless killing intent and power. In an instant, a violent wind blew and a large tree swayed.


    CHI *


    The Death God power rushed out, turning into a sharp sword that stabbed forward. Lin Xing followed closely behind, sending out yet another shower of black light.


    As the two fought, sparks flew in every direction, and the void trembled. For a time, they were evenly matched. No one could suppress him.


    This caused Lu Fan''s face to turn extremely gloomy. This trash''s growth speed was too fast. He couldn''t kill him by himself today. It would be impossible for him to do so in the future.


    At the same time, Gu Yuan and Zhu Yanghua also engaged in an intense battle. The two of them were equally strong and were on par with each other.


    Seeing that the battle was not over yet, the Death God power was completely blocked by Lu Fan''s Divine Arts. They couldn''t even touch the corner of his clothes, so they could only take out their blades and hack down horizontally.


    Mo Dao had appeared out of nowhere in his hand, clearly out of Lu Fan''s expectations. He had not expected that Lin Qi would have this kind of move. Because he was caught off guard, his right arm was struck and one of his arms flew off.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Lu Fan let out a miserable roar. One of his arms had been cut off and was dripping with blood. He was like a gushing spring. It was as if he had been possessed by a devil.


    His long hair fluttered in the wind without any cowardice. His hatred was boundless. Enduring the pain, he once again charged forward.


    "It''s my Phoenix-Dark Blade."


    Zhu Yanghua noticed this scene, and his face fell. That blade was the one that Lin Xing had snatched from him.


    At this moment, the sharp blade chopped off Lu Fan''s arm, breaking the deadlock and causing it to fall into a disadvantageous position.


    "Lin Xing, I will make you beg for death."


    Lu Fan roared non-stop. His face was pale. He performed a one-handed technique and activated a divine technique. Suddenly, a scene appeared behind his back.


    It was a group of majestic mountains, and every single one of them towered into the clouds with a majestic demeanor. In the middle of the mountain stood an iron giant. Its eyes were slightly closed as it sat on the ground. It was taller than the mountains, and its might was terrifying.


    Clang...


    Suddenly, the silent and ice-cold Iron Giant seemed to hear Lu Fan''s summons. It opened its eyes and shot out two incomparably sharp rays of light.


    The light was like the sun, causing the mountains to tremble and the sky to lose its color. It was as if it had penetrated through time and space to come here.


    Seeing this scene, Lin Xing was shocked. Lu Fan was truly worthy of being known as the Prince of the Red Luan Country and a disciple of the Heaven Ascension Sect. His trump card alone was not something an ordinary person could block.


    If it was a Daolord, even if he didn''t die, he would at least lose a layer of skin.


    This was also a secret art. With the activation of this art, Lu Fan instantly collapsed onto the ground, his face completely drained of blood. It was as if his flesh and blood had been sucked out.


    Puchi ¡­


    Death God Power, Immortal Qi ¡­ Any strength that Lin Qi possessed all appeared in front of his chest to block the attack. In an instant, a barrier was formed.


    That piercing light had already locked onto him. No matter what he did, he couldn''t dodge it. He could only take it head on.


    In the blink of an eye, their gazes arrived and collided with the barrier. Immediately, an explosion occurred, and sparks flew in all directions. They destroyed a large portion of the ancient trees and stirred up a large amount of dust.


    Seeing this, Gu Yuan''s expression turned livid. Zhu Yanghua, on the other hand, had a look of excitement on his face, while a sneer appeared on Lu Fan''s tired face. He finally heaved a sigh of relief.

 C62

    "Cough, cough ¡­"


    However, the next moment, their expressions froze as they stared in disbelief at the dust cloud.


    The flames soared into the sky, stirring up a large cloud of dust. However, one could vaguely see a figure standing behind the thick miasma.


    "Impossible, impossible."


    Lu Fan let out a loud cry. His face was filled with disbelief. At this moment, his mind was about to collapse.


    Using that secret art, he had used all the strength in his body. From the side effects that he displayed, it was obvious that even if a true Dao splitting expert were to receive this move, he would not be able to stand. Even if he did not die, he would be seriously injured, or even crippled.


    Meanwhile, Lin Xing was still standing upright on the ground as if nothing had happened.


    The dust fell back to the ground, and the flames dissipated into the air. Lin Xing''s appearance was once again clearly visible.


    His clothes were tattered, his hair was long and messy, and blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth. Although he looked to be in a sorry state, his vitality was not reduced by much, and his vitality was still very strong.


    Gu Yuan took a deep breath. While his face was filled with shock, his hanging heart was finally relieved.


    On the other hand, Zhu Yanghua was filled with fear and shock. For a moment, he stood rooted to the spot with his eyes wide open.


    Gu Yuan took the opportunity to attack and sent him flying with a punch. Following that, he released a series of fierce attacks.


    "No, you are too terrible. You can''t kill me, I''m a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Sect. As long as you let me go, I''ll give you whatever you want. "


    Lin Qi held a blade in his hand as he pressed closer to Lu Fan with the steps of a death god.


    Lu Fan cried out in fear, his face full of despair and regret. His physical strength was exhausted after activating the secret technique, and he didn''t even have the strength to stand. Lin Xing wanted to kill him like a pig or dog.


    "Originally, I did not wish to kill you. However, when I found out that you had come to retaliate against me, not only did you snatch away my leaves, you even killed dozens of soldiers from my general''s manor. If I did not kill you, how could I not face their souls in heaven?" Lin Qi raised his blade. His eyes were like swords, filled with boundless killing intent.


    Lu Fan used his last bit of strength and knelt on the ground, kowtowing as he pleaded, "This is all Fang Tan''s idea, it has nothing to do with me! I''m a disciple of the Sky-rising Sect, if you kill me, my Sect will not let you go! Brother Lin, you must reconsider!"


    His face was full of fear, and his head was banging loudly against the ground.


    "Too late."


    A head fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere, and the stench of blood assailing the nose.


    He took a deep breath and retracted his blade. In the blink of an eye, he looked at Gu Yuan, who was still fighting.


    "Can it end now?"


    "What a freak."


    Gu Yuan inwardly roared. The Lin Xing from before had returned. He then listened to the words, and a great sarcasm arose in his heart. His face darkened as his attacks became even fiercer. They were all killing moves.


    No matter how strong Lin Qi was, he would not admit defeat.


    Zhu Yanghua, who was already spent, had a look of astonishment and horror on his face. Why did this Gu Yuan suddenly go crazy? In order to kill him as soon as possible, she was willing to risk her life.


    He forced himself to open his mouth and said, "I am a disciple of the Yin Master School. If you kill me, the elders of Black Wind Mountain will definitely raze your country to the ground."


    "Really?" "Then come on, if I remember correctly, what you said just now seems to be the same." Lin Xing said in a deep voice.


    "Damn it! Even if I die today, I will drag you down with me!"


    Zhu Yanghua''s hatred for Lin Xing was indescribable. Even though he had been hit on the back by Gu Yuan, he still charged towards Lin Xing, gritting his teeth with a fiendish expression on his face.


    Did he really think that Lin Xing was at the end of his tether?


    Lin Qi''s gaze turned cold as he raised the blade in his hand once again. A single move was enough to sweep away an entire army of enemies. His head was immediately chopped off, rolling together with Lu Fan''s head. His eyes were wide open.


    "I''ll help you deal with it." Lin Xing shrugged his shoulders.


    Gu Yuan''s expression darkened as he wiped away his sweat and said, "That''s fine. I can already send him on his way with my final move. If it wasn''t for your knife, he would still have died."


    Feeling helpless, Lin Xing exchanged glances with Zhang Xuan. At the same time, he was smiling inside his heart.


    After that, Lin Xing put the blade into the soul hole, and then lifted up Lu Fan and Zhu Yanghua''s heads.


    After that, they rushed back to the city.


    At this moment, Fang Tan and his group of young elites were still gorging themselves. Most of them had drunk too much, especially Fang Tan, whose face was flushed and whose entire body was reeking of alcohol.


    "Brother Fang, are the two of them really Dao Division experts?" I am very suspicious of the authenticity of the situation. Would it be so troublesome to deal with a Clasping Yuan Realm cultivator? " A colon appeared above someone''s head.


    Fang Tan did not mind at all. He downed another cup of wine and said dizzily: "Rest assured, I know the strength of Brother Zhu and Brother Lu. They are both outstanding talents in their generation. However, that Lin Xing is cunning, and may even be playing some sort of plaything game, afraid that he will have to put in a bit of effort. "


    "I''m just afraid of a bad idea coming out of it." One of the women had a worried look on her face.


    "Sigh, Brother Fang is right. In the face of great power, any schemes and tricks would be nothing but ashes." Another young man said with a smile.


    Even though they were happy, they were only waiting for Lu Fan and Zhu Yanghua to bring back Lin Xing''s head. Some even ordered their servants to fetch more wine, afraid that they would not have enough to drink.


    Amidst the cheers and laughter, a bloody head fell from the sky and rolled on the floor for a long time. Finally, it landed on the floor in the middle of the tables, causing the women to scream.


    "Haha, as I''ve said, this is Lin Xing''s head. Brother Lu and Brother Zhu did not disappoint me."


    When Fang Tan saw the head, he stood up and shakily laughed out loud.


    However, someone rubbed his eyes and carefully observed the scene for a while. Then, with a face full of shock, he jumped up in fear.


    "This seems to be Brother Lu''s head." That person exclaimed.


    "What? Impossible."


    As soon as those words were spoken, everyone''s faces changed dramatically. Fang Tan was drunk again, so he shook his head hard and squinted his eyes.


    Not long after, he took a deep breath and felt a chill on his back.


    It really was Lu Fan.


    "Heavens, can anyone tell me what happened?" He growled and was shocked.


    "Let me tell you something."


    A youth''s voice rang out, and what followed was Lin Xing''s body. In his hand was a human head, which everyone recognized as Zhu Yanghua''s head.


    Two experts chasing after a man at the level of power, yet they were killed in the opposite direction? This was enough to shock anyone.


    No, perhaps he had an expert backing him, and it was impossible for him to have killed him by himself. Someone must have helped him, or else it would be unpractical no matter how one thought of it.


    Lin Qi''s clothes were neat and tidy, and he did not look like he had fought. It was very likely that he had not even fought yet.


    In fact, before Lin woke up, he had already gone back to the general''s manor to shower and wash. He had put on new clothes in order to maintain a sense of mystery and let them make wild guesses.


    "You killed them both?"


    Fang Tan was still in a daze. He still couldn''t believe what he saw.


    "Yes, you''re next." Lin Qi said with a gloomy face.


    Fang Tan''s eyelids jumped, his heart was anxious, his face was filled with panic, but he forced himself to calm down, and laughed: "Hmph, those two are all sect disciples, how long do you think you can live after you kill them all? "Moreover, I still have so many geniuses from so many great sects. How are you going to kill me?"


    The young elites sitting here, including many Dao Seeking experts, gave Fang Tan some courage.

 C63

    Lifting his eyes to look at the young elites around him, Lin Qi''s lips curled up into a smile. With a hint of fierceness in his tone, he said, "One is a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Sect and the other one is a disciple of the Yin Master Sect. Furthermore, as far as I know, your powers are a million miles away from here. Even if I kill all of you, there are two ways to say if I can muster up a large group of people to help you take revenge. "


    Everyone''s gaze froze as they couldn''t help but shrink back. It was obvious that they were intimidated by his words.


    They were well aware that it was impossible for Lu Fan and Zhu Yanghua to die by Lin Xing''s hands. It was clear that there was a powerful expert behind him, and that he was hiding in the shadows.


    For a moment, there was complete silence. No one had any intention of helping Fang Tan.


    "Brother Fang, I drank a bit too much today. Please forgive me for being unable to accompany you. I''ll head back to rest first."


    Some people even pretended to be confused as they bid farewell to Fang Tan. A moment later, more than half of them left.


    "You all ¡­" Fang Tan was infuriated, but he couldn''t stop her even if he wanted to.


    When he saw Lin Qi''s eyes brimming with killing intent, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart. He could not help but kneel on the ground.


    "Brother Lin, I know I was wrong. I will return the Thunder Withered Leaf to you immediately." "In the future, I will never dare to oppose the General''s Estate again. I only hope that Brother Lin will not remember this lowly one and spare my life." Fang Tan''s face was covered in snot and tears. His head was banging loudly against the ground.


    Lin Qi shook his finger and said, "You are the dignified first son of the Prime Minister, how can you be only worth the price of three carriages of withering thunder leaves? You don''t want to lower your own price?" Send someone to bring three more spirit crystals to my residence tomorrow. "That makes sense."


    "Three cars? Or is it a spirit crystal? " Fang Tan''s face turned black. This was the sound of their Prime Minister going bankrupt.


    He was about to bargain, but as he saw the murderous intent in Lin Qi''s eyes, his expression changed again and again. With a pained expression, he said, "Okay, three carriages is three carriages."


    "Your head will temporarily be hung on your shoulder, but remember, it is only temporarily. If I were to find out that you are going against me, your fate will only be worse than theirs." Lin Xing pointed at the two heads, full of threat.


    "Yes, yes, I will definitely keep that in mind." Fang Tan broke out in a cold sweat, not daring to breathe.


    The reason why Lin Xing did not kill Fang Tan was because he thought that Fang Tan still had some value to him, so he thought for a while, then said: "Tomorrow, we will make two coffins, Zhu Yanghua and Lu Fan''s corpses will be found ten miles away from the city, then you can send people to retrieve them and put them back together, put them all back together, then we will bury them after three days. No matter what, when they were alive, they were best friends with you. "


    Hearing this, Fang Tan''s heart skipped a beat. He slightly raised his head and looked at Lin Qi with a strange expression. He didn''t understand what Lin Ming was thinking. Was the world going to know about such a big commotion? Wasn''t he afraid of the Sky Sect and the Yin Master School coming to him?


    "I will listen to Brother Lin."


    In truth, Lin Qi wanted to court death, but he was also a bit worried. Since the two of them had died in the capital, he had a responsibility he could not shirk. If he became angry and overturned the city, that would be a matter he could not decide.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing left in a carefree manner.


    The next day, as expected, Fang Tan sent someone to deliver three wagons of Thunder Leaf and three wagons of Spirit Crystals.


    The spirit crystals piled up like a huge mountain were pulled over. Even the escort of the fairy who had seen the world was taken aback and looked over in a daze. The Prime Minister''s estate was too rich. The General''s Estate was about to make a fortune.


    At the same time, the news of Zhu Yanghua and Lu Fan''s deaths spread like wildfire. Within a short period of time, it had spread to several nearby countries.


    The people of Black Wind Mountain were even more arrogant and threatened to turn the capital of the Kingdom of Green Silver into a river of blood. The people of Black Wind Mountain were even more arrogant and threatened to turn the capital of the Kingdom of Green Silver into a river of blood.


    At this time, Lin Qi was not in the mansion. Instead, he was alone by the side of the river.


    The river was flowing through the territory of the Deities Sect like a dragon, lying dormant on the ground. It was filled with mountains and rivers, surging without end.


    After quietly observing for a while, he took a step and left. Not long after, he arrived at Black Wind Mountain again.


    This was a forest filled with shrubbery. There were tall and scattered rocks standing like tombstones. This place was deathly still.


    This was the place where he had refined the Death God power all those years ago, and when he had revisited, he had not seen the old friend that he had been trying so hard to find.


    The two places he had passed by were both places where he had once encountered the old man. There was a bottleneck that he could not solve in his heart. He was looking for the old man, hoping to find the answer.


    This person was an unfathomable expert. He was not an ordinary expert, and was the most capable that Lin Xin had ever seen. The Nine Revolutions Divine Light and Death God Power were both created by him.


    Unfortunately, he was rarely seen. Even when Lin Qi walked past many places near Black Wind Mountain, he did not run into any of them.


    He sighed, but was not discouraged. This bottleneck determined his success in stepping into the Dao Division, and also made him invincible within it.


    Suddenly, a young woman dressed in palace clothing walked out from the forest. She was beautiful, elegant and charming. Looking at Lin Qi, her expression could not help but change.


    "Now, all the powerful warriors of the Cult of Yin have come to find you. How dare you come to the Black Wind Mountain?" Bu Tiantong was surprised.


    The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched, he then laughed in a crazed manner, "Why would I not dare? Let them cause a ruckus, wait for me to go back first." I just wonder, what does your Master mean by this? Did you interrupt our business? "


    After not seeing Bu Tiantong for a few days, he realized that Bu Tiantong had also stepped into the Dao Division. However, when he recalled that she was already at the peak of the Acupoint Charging Realm, he did not find it strange.


    "My master did not display the so-called rage. The full power of the withering thunder leaf is under my master''s responsibility. Even if someone else wants to break it, they have no right to interfere. Master told me to tell you that business was as usual. " Bu Tiantong gently smiled.


    "Oh?"


    Lin Qi could not help but feel shaken. He had killed all of the disciples of Wuchang, but he did not expect Wuchang to remain calm. He did not know if there was something he wanted to say or if he was being too cold-blooded, and everything was for the sake of his own interests.


    "But that is only if you are still alive. "However, considering your cultivation level, it would be difficult for you to survive under the hands of so many Dao Realm experts. The goddess will leave one day, and you can''t possibly stay here forever. In one breath, Bu Tiantong spoke so many words. However, every word was done in an orderly manner, aiming straight at Lin Xing''s vitals.


    Lin Qi broke into a cold sweat as he regained his composure and said seriously, "The reason why I came to look for you this time is to increase my strength. I heard that Black Wind Mountain has an item called the Enchantment Grass. This plant is the first choice for anyone who advanced to Dao Division, so I came here to find out where I can pick it from. "


    Back then, when he was cultivating in the Heaven Ascension Sect and was preparing to step into the Dao Division, the Green Jade Stone gave him a large pile of Wing Ying Grass to consume, allowing him to advance without a problem. After further inquiry, this grass came from Black Wind Mountain.


    After recultivating once again, he no longer received such good treatment. There were no longer any heavenly materials left for him to squander as he continued to rely on for his own self-support.


    "Embracing the Warbler Grass?" Bu Tiantong revealed a surprised expression.

 C64

    "That''s right, the more the Enchantment Grass grows in a place of extreme yin, the more exuberant the life force. Our Black Wind Mountain does indeed have this thing." Bu Tiantong said.


    Lin Xing walked up to her and looked at her facial features. "Can you help me point the way, or take me with you?"


    Bu Tiantong bitterly shook his head and refused, "I''m sorry, your situation is special right now. I can''t get too close to you, so I can guide you."


    "Thank you." Lin Xing pursed his lips. He knew that she was in a difficult situation. Being able to guide him was already her greatest effort.


    "Our Black Wind Mountain is a dangerous place with many dangerous places. There are even many places that are extremely dangerous, and even people from our sect would not dare to rashly enter. As for the Enchantment Grass, it grew in a forbidden area. So, you have to be prepared. " Bu Tiantong said.


    Lin Qi nodded his head solemnly as he took this to heart.


    He gestured with his right index finger on his left hand, and a black talisman instantly took shape. Then, it flew out of his hand, hung in the air, and floated along with the wind, appearing and disappearing.


    "It will guide you. Follow it." Bu Tiantong said.


    As soon as she finished speaking, the black charm character immediately flew towards a certain direction. Lin Xing greeted her with a bow before calmly following behind her.


    Under the guidance of the black spell, Lin Qi followed closely behind, moving as fast as he could as he passed through a large forest and crossed two or three mountain ranges.


    After a quarter of an hour passed, the black charm led him into a dark jungle. The setting sun was blood-red, and the red light illuminated everything, adding to the terrifying and mysterious atmosphere of the black jungle.


    Reaching this place, the black runes gradually dimmed, and then all the nether energy was lost, turning into a black light and disappearing.


    After the black incantation disappeared, Lin Qi stopped and looked around at the surrounding black forest. He could not help but reveal a strange expression on his face.


    He vividly remembered the appearance of the Enchantment Grass. It was a glowing plant, and even in the daytime, it was very dazzling. However, after looking around, he did not find anything conspicuous in the dark forest.


    However, thinking about it, it made sense. If the Enchantment Grass was so easily obtainable, then it wouldn''t be so precious. He stepped forward and looked around, his eyes constantly searching the surroundings.


    In such a quiet forest, he felt a sense of foreboding. It was so quiet that it was frightening, not even the sound of insects could be heard.


    A black lamp appeared in front of his chest, and a large area of greenish-white light suddenly lit up. Accompanied by the breeze blowing past the light, it emitted a bone-chilling cold. At the same time, the surroundings were clearly visible.


    Every time the light touched a blade of grass or plant, it would quickly retreat as if it had a mind of its own. It moved along with the roots, as if it had met its natural enemy.


    The abnormal movements of the surrounding vegetation immediately caused Lin Qi to be extremely shocked. Under the illumination of the black lamp, all of them began to tremble, continuously retreating backwards, out of the range of the light.


    This made him think of the Molten Spirit Mountain. It was also a spiritual object, but the Spiritual Wood of the Molten Spirit Mountain was purified by Spiritual Energy while the plants of the Black Wind Mountain were nourished by the fiendish aura all year round.


    Celestial Arts were the natural enemies of the Dark Faction and Baleful Yin Force. Just a little light and they would be in so much pain that they would wish they were dead. It wasn''t strange at all.


    The surrounding grass and trees retreated without restraint while Lin Xing walked towards a certain direction as if there was no one around. Black lights flashed as if he was walking on flat ground.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, the sound of wind breaking sounded out. It pierced through the void and came out from the black forest in front, heading straight for Lin Qi''s forehead.


    It was a vine, and at one end of the vine was a single facial feature. It had no flesh, blood, or color, but it was incredibly lifelike, and was shockingly ferocious.


    He activated the Hidden Heaven Spell and dodged to the side. He then flicked his finger and sent the vine flying. Then, he quickly retracted it.


    This vine was intelligent and bizarre, obviously unafraid of the celestial spiritual energy and flames on the black lamp.


    Without waiting for Lin Xing to regain his senses, he rushed out once more, bringing with him the sound of thunder. He was as fast as lightning, catching people off guard.


    Lin Qi took out his blade and held it in front of him. Then, he rushed forward and hacked at that person''s face.


    CHI *


    Mo Dao slashed into the face, revealing a sinister and painful expression, as if he was howling in pain. Lin Qi held Mo Dao in his hand, and continued to advance. The vines continued to split apart, creating a large amount of sparks.


    After reaching the source of the vine, Lin Xing drew his saber back. The vine that had been split in half fell to the ground without a sound.


    As soon as he got close, his gaze was attracted by two plants. The first thing he saw was a small piece of Escort Grass.


    The shape was like an oriole, dancing gracefully. The entire thing flowed with brilliant light, dazzling and dreamlike and real. Even though Lin Xing''s expression was joyful, his mind was very calm. He did not immediately pick it, instead sizing up an object beside him.


    Zhang Xuan lowered his gaze and realized that it was a corpse. The corpse was extremely weathered, and its skin and bones were completely shriveled. Its eyes were sunken in, and it had no eyeballs.


    Clearly, this was a corpse that had been dead for many years. However, what made Lin Qi feel strange was that aside from his head, his entire body was wrapped in vines and vines.


    There were even two rattan vines that entered his nose. As for how long they extended into his body, Lin Xing did not know.


    The vines around the area were ingrained, and their roots circled around the corpse as they grew. The vines wrapping around the corpse actually shone with a faint, black light. In particular, the two vines that had been inserted into its nose were radiating bright lights as they continuously poured in Baleful Yin Force.


    Lin Qi looked at the corpse for a while. He was sure that it was a dead body. There was not even the slightest trace of life left in its body. However, he was puzzled by what the rattan was doing.


    Even when the Celestial Lamp was lit up, the vine remained motionless, no longer fearing it.


    Right now, Lin Qi did not have the mood to think through the cause and effect of this matter. He could not stay here for too long, so he quickly crouched down to pick some Yingying Grass and prepared to leave.


    Mo Dao was stuck in the ground, squatting down and using both his hands to crazily pluck the stone. After that, he put it into his soul hole and completely harvested it in an instant.


    However, just as he was about to stand up with his blade in his right hand, he heard a bone-piercing cold and faint breathing coming from his neck.


    His expression could not help but change, and he instantly picked up Mo Dao and swung him backwards.


    Clang ¡­


    However, it was as if Mo Dao was chopping a piece of iron that was ten thousand years old. A loud sound exploded and the body of the blade violently shook, causing his arm to go numb.


    He raised his head and looked at the object that Mo Dao had chopped down. His expression changed drastically as he saw a two tall, dried up corpse standing in front of him. Its face was shriveled and there was not a trace of blood on it. Mo Dao accurately chopped at its head, yet he didn''t even take a single step forward.


    Its body was tougher than steel, and Lin Qi couldn''t help but be aghast.


    Just as he came back to his senses, Lin Xing quickly retreated, running away. This desiccated corpse was strange and fierce, he was absolutely no match for it.


    If he didn''t guess wrong, this thing should be the legendary Prison Corpse. After death, the corpse would be nourished by the infernal energy and would develop spirituality, becoming a type of existence.


    Prison corpses were extremely rare in ancient times, but they were almost unheard-of today. No one would have thought that there was actually one in Black Wind Mountain.


    It was rumored that when a Prison Corpse''s strength reached its peak, they could compete with a Great Honored Warrior to become a Giant Demon.

 C65

    A corpse stood up, stirring up strong gales in all directions. The air currents were mixed with a cold aura, causing the space to distort slightly.


    Its face was repulsive, and its entire body was shriveled, appearing somewhat wooden. One could not discern even a hint of emotion from it, as if it was a corpse standing on the spot.


    Phew...


    Although it was surrounded by vines, its movements were not restricted by anything. It stomped on the ground and charged forward, bringing with it a large amount of vines and mud.


    Feeling the fierce aura coming from behind him, Lin Qi ran very fast. He could not help but feel goosebumps all over his body, the Prison Corpse was too powerful, the strength of the Prison Corpse he encountered was obviously comparable to a Heaven Smiting Stage warrior, he could not defeat it no matter what.


    The prison corpse was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it was already not far behind him. In the next moment, it directly pressed against his back.


    Both feet landed on the ground and with another stomp, he used his head as a weapon and rammed forward. It was an unstoppable force.


    Lin Xing was caught off guard and was sent flying several dozen zhang away. His chest struck a large tree and he felt as if several of his ribs had been broken. The tree swayed uncontrollably.


    The Prison Corpse that was wrapped in vines jumped over. Its appearance was a little funny, but Lin Xing couldn''t bring himself to laugh. He leaned against the tree with a shocked expression and his heart sank.


    Boom ¡­


    The Prison Corpse stopped its death-like jump and flew out, once again using its head that was as hard as steel to strike at it. When it was just inches away from Lin Xing, a huge golden arc of lightning suddenly came down from the sky, directly striking its body.


    The corpse was struck by the lightning and fell to the ground. His entire body was covered in green smoke and even the vines were turned to powder. The wind blew on them. He raised his head again, and his shriveled face finally revealed a trace of fear.


    Looking back at Lin Qi, he could see a ball of golden energy gathered in his palm. He let out a breath, and the energy expanded with the wind, turning into a ball of golden light that enveloped him, making him look like the incarnation of a child of the sun.


    Although the corpse did not have eyes, but once its skin was exposed to the golden light it began to emit green smoke and a burnt smell. It didn''t dare to move forward as it was forced back ten meters. He looked bewildered.


    In that instant, Lin Xing''s two fingers pressed down and another bolt of lightning struck its body. It immediately collapsed to the ground, the smell of burnt flesh filling the air, accompanied by a foul stench.


    After suffering heavy injuries, the corpse''s dry skin had been burnt dry. All of the fierce aura had been restrained and it did not stay any longer as it began to escape in the opposite direction.


    Looking at the green smoke that was left behind on its path, Lin Qi''s brows twitched, and he followed closely behind.


    The plot was reversed, and the hunted became the anti-pursuers.


    Lin Qi was puzzled by the appearance of this corpse. Curiosity was piqued, and he couldn''t help but chase after it, wanting to find out what was going on.


    As for the golden light he released, it was the "Sky Origin" that he refined from the trump card not long ago. This was the power cultivated by the Dragonrise Branch.


    Long Yan, this line in the six meridians unique, advocated going with the sky, reverence the earth, willingly to be a "mackerel." (Rookie dog.) Some people said that the dragon''s face was the eyes and fangs of the heavens.


    And the power they cultivated was extracted from the heavens, so it was called Heavenly Source. Their greatest ability was to summon the wind and rain, to mobilize all the forces of nature.


    Lin Xing had heard that existences like the Prison Corpse who risked their lives in adversity were especially afraid of Heaven''s Might, so he activated Heaven''s Origin Stage to bring down heavenly tribulation, cleverly injuring the Prison Corpse.


    Along the way, because the Prison Corpse''s movements were secretive and it was as fast as lightning, Lin Xing was almost thrown off several times. In the end, he had to rely on the smell of burnt flesh in the air to track it.


    After a while, Lin Xing walked to the entrance of a cave. The entrance was covered by a large pile of grass, making it look very remote and secretive. At the entrance of the cave, the smell of burning flesh could still be smelled.


    He pushed aside the tall grass on both sides and looked into the cave. It was pitch black inside with less than half a meter of visibility. Lin Xing threw a small stone into the cave. It was like a clay ox entering the sea, not a single sound could be heard.


    He took a deep breath and strode into the cave. However, the moment his left foot touched the ground, he stepped on a hard rock.


    With a surprised voice, he lowered his body and pushed aside a thin layer of dust. He found a two-meter tall stone monument beneath his feet. It was ice-cold and filled with a cold and gloomy aura.


    "Great Rudra Immortal Manor."


    There were six eye-catching words carved on the stone monument. They were like iron paintings and silver hooks, full of vigor and power, incomparably ancient. A faint immortal energy was being emitted along with the outermost layer of yin energy.


    Sssii...


    Lin Qi grinned and took a deep breath. He could not help but feel cold air seeping out from every pore of his body.


    If he didn''t guess wrong, the entrance to this cave was the Lost City that this little brat had been bitterly searching for.


    Now that he saw it, he didn''t feel happy at all. Instead, he felt a chill run down his spine. So the rumors were all true. It wasn''t empty talk.


    However, the current situation in the Azure Silver Country was extremely complicated. There was already a Master Tomb causing Lin Xing to be extremely anxious. If another immortal cave were to appear, who knew how many great sects it would cause?


    He had never thought that he would be able to find it so easily and coincidentally. This was not a good thing at all.


    He originally wanted to develop for a period of time. If this brat could find the Lost City, he could also fish in troubled waters and seize a few treasures. If they didn''t find him, he wouldn''t force them. In fact, he could even stabilize the situation in the Kingdom of Azure Silver.


    At this moment, the Lost City appeared right in front of him. How could he not be shocked, but how could he not be happy?


    Whatever, that''s what Lin Xing meant. I''ll keep it a secret for as long as I can. If I can''t keep it a secret, then we''ll decide based on the situation.


    After that, he suppressed the thought of rushing into the cave. Lost City had been abandoned for so many years, and it was extremely dangerous. With his current strength, going in was no different from courting death.


    To be able to deal with the Prison Corpse simply was already a stroke of luck. Only the heavens knew what kind of terrifying existence was inside, or something even more mysterious and terrifying than the Prison Corpse.


    After that, he picked up the stone tablet and stored it in his soul cave. It took up more than half of the space in the soul cave. Including Mo Dao and the Spirit Crystal, it was already packed to the brim.


    He then covered the entrance of the cave with a layer of grass. After observing the cave for a while, he exhaled a mouthful of foul air and left.


    Then, after walking a short distance, he found a hidden place to sit down and set up a small illusion array around him.


    This was a divine art that could cover up the internal scenes and change the appearance. Lin Xing sat like a monk in meditation on the ground. His next step was to prepare to advance into the Dao realm.

 C66

    Night descended. The moon was like a silver hook.


    In the depths of the black jungle, rainbow-colored light swirled around him like a large river.


    This scene was completely blocked by an illusion technique. It was impossible for an ordinary person to see what was going on inside from the outside.


    All sorts of elemental energies were mixed together, but they were arranged in an orderly manner, neither contending nor fighting. In the end, everything was in order and they all gathered in Lin Qi''s palm.


    In the instant before he advanced to Dao Division, he had absorbed a massive amount of baleful qi, which had then been refined by his golden mace and converted into nether energy.


    Right now in his body, all four types of energy circulated at the same time. Right now in his body, all four types of energy circulated at the same time in his body.


    Immortal energy, divine power, nether energy, and the last bit of Heavenly Energy were all relatively weak, but they could still be considered a part of him. He spent a lot of effort and energy, and after half a night of struggling, he finally managed to perfectly integrate these four pieces of energy into his body.


    Among them, the netherworld spiritual energy was tyrannical, and it let out a scornful hum to the other three powers, making them extremely incompatible. However, after being suppressed by the golden mace, even dragons and tigers would have to lie down. In the end, he was unable to bear the combined power of Lin Qi and his golden mace, blending in with the other three powers.


    "Divide ¡­"


    When the sun rose, a faint light shone. Lin Xing''s calm expression finally became excited.


    At the same time, four explosive powers burst forth from within his body and rushed up the dome, as if they were going to tear a huge hole in the sky open.


    Although the four energies were "fused." However, it was not the so-called blended blending. It was a mutual acceptance that belonged to one person''s body and was no longer rejected. Of course, this was not a completely new type of power.


    Even Hiding Sky Sovereign hadn''t been able to create such a power, let alone a minor character like Lin Xing.


    He only borrowed the power of the golden mace to merge the four types of energy into his body.


    He stood up and tidied up his clothing, realizing that his back was covered in sweat. He had been tossing and turning the entire night, but he was not exhausted. Instead, he was brimming with energy and excitement.


    Then, he strode out of Black Wind Mountain towards the capital.


    Before he even stepped into the capital, from afar, he could already see snowflakes dancing in the air. However, the snowflakes were not white, but as if they had been stained with ink. They were pitch-black and bloody.


    Snowflakes drifted about, as a chilling aura enveloped the entire capital. The sounds of wailing could be heard, as well as a desolate atmosphere.


    It was said that an elder of the Yin Master School stationed at Black Wind Mountain heard that his disciples had been killed and came personally to see who had dared to make a move on Taizu. He threatened to slaughter the entire Green Silver Country to pay tribute to their disciples.


    As these words were spoken, everyone from the Azure Silver Country fell into a state of panic. Many of them didn''t hesitate to move their clan and flee this land.


    The king was cowering in his palace, not daring to step out. This caused chaos within the imperial court, and even the officials were unable to protect themselves in time.


    As for the name of Lin Xing, almost everyone was gritting their teeth and cursing him. This was a god of pests, and upon his return two years later, he never stopped, constantly bringing disaster to the Azure Silver Country.


    Right now, the capital city was filled with a large number of people. There were disciples of the Heaven Descending Sect, experts of the Yin Master Sect, and quite a number of onlookers.


    After the Elder of the Gongyin Faction said this, it immediately alarmed the elders of the Dancing Sky Sect and sent an elder to interfere. After all, this was the territory of the Dancing Sky Sect, and they had no choice but to ask, otherwise, the countries under them would be disappointed.


    The agreement was that this elder would personally send people to apprehend Lin Xing, and then escort him to the imperial palace. In front of the two great sects and the heroes of the realm, he would execute Lin Xing in public to express his anger.


    In the end, after a series of negotiations, the elder from the Yin Master School called Wei Zheng agreed. However, he still had one condition, which was that Lin Xing''s life was not enough to vent his anger.


    After considering for a moment, the Elder from the Sky Sect nodded his head. He knew that the Yin Master School had already made the biggest concession.


    Moreover, just slaughtering a mere general''s manor was completely within the tolerance of the Skypiercing Sect. There wasn''t even the tiniest ripple. Who told Lin Xing to be so arrogant as to take advantage of himself?


    Moreover, the Sky Sect and the Giant Spirit Sect were at loggerheads, so they had to fight to the bitter end at the front line. They must not offend the Yin Master School again, or else the Sky Sect would fall into a passive situation.


    Before Lin Xing entered the capital, he had used a piece of cloth to cover his face. The current situation was very complicated, everyone wanted to capture him, so no one would recognize him.


    Soon after, he walked unhindered all the way to the front of the general''s manor. As he looked at the corpses lying on the ground, his heart surged with a monstrous rage.


    Those corpses were all wearing armor, and they were obviously soldiers from the general''s manor. Their death appearances were extremely miserable, and some of them were actually dismembered by the saber, chopping into pieces of minced meat.


    Lin Ming''s eyebrows shot up, and his expression became incomparably solemn. A cold light flashed in his eyes; the killing intent in Lin Xing''s heart could be imagined.


    He wanted to walk into the mansion, but he was stopped by a group of people. Most of these people were at the level of the Body Nether Realm, they could not be considered as the Yin Master School''s disciples.


    As they sought refuge, they listened to the elders of the Yin Master School. This time, Black Wind Mountain was furious. He sent out all of these people and even said that whoever could take Lin Xing Jian''s head would directly become a disciple of the Yin Master School.


    The Yin Master School''s recruitment was even stricter than the Sky Sect, and the competition was fierce. Each of the Yin Master Sects came out of the mountains of corpses while stepping on the corpses of their own martial brothers and sisters. There were some people who did not dare to attempt the slaughter trial, even after they had advanced to the Dao Division realm.


    Now, as long as they could kill Lin Qi, they could easily become a Yin Master Sect disciple. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity for them.


    Therefore, they surrounded the general''s manor day and night, waiting for Lin Xing to appear and kill him.


    In reality, if it wasn''t for the fact that there was a fairy staying in the manor, with their violent tempers, they would have long since destroyed the general''s estate.


    "Why is this guy wearing a mask? Isn''t it shameful?" Also, this mansion is under the strict orders of Elder Wei that we are not allowed to enter, so please return. "


    The person blocking Lin Qi''s path was a muscular man with a ferocious look on his face. However, he was still somewhat polite with Lin Qi''s tone of voice.


    He noticed that Lin Xing was also surrounded by a large amount of netherworld spiritual energy. He was also a nether and was also at the same stage as him, so he spoke politely.


    "Can''t you enter? If you want to see my face, then I''ll show you. " Lin Xing stood on the spot as he spoke, his voice somewhat sluggish. The killing intent in his heart was endless, but he forced himself to remain calm.


    As he spoke, he took off the black cloth, revealing a delicate and pretty face.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    The muscular man who was closest to him saw his face first and recognized it at a glance. He immediately let out a cry of surprise as excitement and greed flashed across his eyes.


    His appearance had long turned into hundreds of pictures that were pasted onto the walls of the city. Although the burly man had never seen his true appearance before, he could still recognize him from the outline and the images.


    Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. Lowering his head to look, he saw a blade piercing through his chest, the blade sticking out from his back, dripping blood.

 C67

    His eyes were bloodshot and his face was filled with horror. He looked down at the blade stabbed into his chest and all the hairs on his body stood up. Lin Xing''s move was too decisive and quick. He almost couldn''t react before his chest was pierced through.


    CHI *


    Mo Dao drew out his saber. The blade was stained with blood. He opened his mouth to spit out words, but his vitality was insufficient. He fell straight to the ground, his eyes bloodshot. Up until now, he had seen the reflection of a person''s saber.


    "It''s Lin Xing, he appeared. Since we killed him, we''ve done a great deed."


    When the group of people saw Lin Qi appear, they were stunned for a moment before quickly being overwhelmed by greed. They did not cower at the sight of the underworld expert being killed, but rushed towards him instead.


    With a flip of the saber and rod in his palm, his entire body shook violently as he let out a buzzing sound. Then, with both hands gripping together, he swept away thousands of soldiers with one move and slit the throats of seven or eight people.


    His long hair fluttered about, and he was bathed in blood while fighting for his life. He rushed towards the manor''s entrance, killing all before him as if he were a god of death that descended into this world.


    His expression was incomparably cold, without a hint of emotion. With every step he took, a large amount of corpses appeared beneath his feet.


    He had just stepped into the Dao, and after fusing the four types of supreme powers of the world, his power had increased tremendously. Virtually no one could stop him, not even Dao Seeking experts. His blade spun, and a large number of people died.


    As he rushed forward, corpses littered the ground. The surrounding people''s faces all changed color. They looked at his figure with panic.


    "Kill!"


    The location where Lin Qi was battling was about ten meters away from the manor gate. This ten-meter distance was currently filled with corpses. Just as he was about to step into the manor gate, someone shouted out. Another large group of people charged forward.


    Puff ¡­ Puff ¡­


    Before he could move, his arm shook and the blade flew out. He threw out three or four blade marks consecutively. The group of people who were charging over exploded and had their bodies smashed to smithereens.


    Turning his previous self around, Lin Xing''s entire body was like a sea of blood, like a primordial giant beast, exuding a breathtaking yet majestic aura. Especially the look in his eyes, which seemed to be able to shatter a person''s soul.


    Everyone slightly touched it, and their scalps immediately became numb. The weaker cultivators couldn''t help but fall flat on the ground, foaming at the mouth while twitching. The stronger ones quickly retreated as well.


    Soon after, he withdrew his blade and swaggered into the manor. No one dared to stop him anymore.


    Not too long after he entered the manor, two figures could be seen flying through the air. They landed in front of the manor and looked at the bloody corpses on the ground with a dark expression.


    "Brother Li, look. This is the disciple who was once regarded as a heaven''s pride expert in your sect. His attacks were so vicious, even more vicious than those from my sect." It was fortunate that he did not cross that threshold back then. Otherwise, if such a vicious person had allowed him to grow up, he would have been able to do so. It will definitely be a huge disaster for the whole world. "


    The one who spoke was a ruddy old man. He wore a black robe and his entire body was enveloped in a thin layer of black mist. His voice was extremely eerie and his voice was extremely hoarse.


    Beside him stood a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body and a face full of pockmarks. He was extremely ugly and his mouth was crooked. He was the elder who came to negotiate with the ascension sect, Li Leng.


    Even though he had a crooked face, no one dared to discriminate against him. Their eyes were filled with reverence. He and Wei Zheng were of the same realm, and both were supreme experts.


    Li Leng smiled bitterly and could not help but roll his eyes secretly. Wei Zheng, this old freak, had actually come pretending to be a good man and a good woman, and was even acting the same way. On the surface, he said, "Brother Wei is right, but heaven has decreed that this child will not be able to grow. It wouldn''t hurt to let him live for two more days. It''s a pity that you''re Brother Wei''s disciple. "


    "Hmph." These people are just juniors of the Netherworld Sect who have received the protection of my sect. They died with regrets, but I didn''t expect Lin Xin to still dare to be so impudent. He is clearly slapping my two sects in the face. If we don''t grind his bones to dust, where will our sect''s face go! " The black mist around him roiled, and from time to time, evil and ghastly roars could be heard coming from within.


    "We will definitely kill him, but we missed this great opportunity and let him slip into our mansion. With that fairy here, we don''t dare to act rashly." Li Chuang pursed his lips and said embarrassedly.


    Wei Zheng was enraged as he said coldly, "Fairy? "I know that fairy was extremely talented, and her strength is not that much inferior to us seniors. How about this, the two of us will charge into the mansion together and capture Lin Qi and her son. If that fairy makes a move, you can stop her for me."


    "You can''t. I''ve come to the elder group and repeatedly told them not to anger the fairy. If they displease her because of this matter, then the gains won''t make up for the losses." Li Leng''s expression turned serious.


    "Hmph." Wei Zheng''s anger had not been vented and his heart was burning with fury. He said, "I know this woman belongs to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, but so what? Do you really think our two sects are afraid of her? Moreover, this is still your sect''s territory. No matter how strong the Gate of Heavenly Mystery is, it can''t possibly burn its anger at your sect for such a small matter, right?


    "Brother Wei, you might have misunderstood my meaning." Li Chuang''s mouth was crooked, and his facial features looked even more unsightly. He put his head close to Wei Zheng''s ear and whispered, "Does Brother Wei really think that the Heavenly Sect would be so afraid of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery? According to the news our sect received, this fairy is also a Flying Immortal. "


    "Flying Immortal Disciple!"


    Wei Zheng''s body shook as his expression alternated between green and white. His eyebrows couldn''t help but furrow as a sliver of fear flashed across the depths of his eyes.


    He didn''t think that this goddess''s background was so great that it exceeded his expectations. If he was able to confirm his identity as a Flying Immortal disciple, even if the Sect Leader of the Yin Master Sect came, he wouldn''t dare to be disrespectful to this fairy, let alone a normal elder like him.


    "Is this true?" He was bewildered and doubtful. This was too shocking, so he asked once more to confirm.


    "It''s pretty close, so Brother Wei can''t act rashly. I don''t need to introduce this Flying Immortal, right?" "That''s wandering around the edges of the world''s specifications ¡­" Li Chuang lowered his voice and whispered.


    Before he could finish his last sentence, Wei Zheng had already raised his wrist and said, "Brother Li, there''s no need to speak any further. I am naturally clear on the background of this Flying Immortal."


    Then, he let out an unwilling roar and said: "But if I don''t destroy Lin Qi, it will be hard to quell the hatred in my heart. I just received a secret report just now that this kid killed seven or eight of my elite disciples in the Spirit Transformation Mountain not long ago, he has already severely challenged our sect''s dignity. My sect''s Seventh Elder ordered that he be captured alive, brought back to our sect, and that he be imprisoned in our sect forever, to experience the endless suffering of the world. "


    After hearing the word "Yin Prison", everyone who knew about it couldn''t help but shiver. Even Li Chuang felt a chill in his heart.


    "No, no matter what you say, this Lin Xing was previously my sect''s disciple. You can punish him here, and even if you were to hack him into a thousand pieces my sect wouldn''t care, but how can you take him away?" Li Leng flatly refused. This matter was related to the face of the Ascension Sect.


    Wei Zheng sneered, then said lightly, "Seventh Elder said that as long as your sect agrees to this request, our sect is willing to send out five million troops and twenty elite disciples to assist your sect in the war between your sect and the Giant Spirit Sect."


    "Is that true?" Li Leng''s eyes lit up.


    In his astonished field of vision, Wei Zheng smiled and nodded.


    Not to mention the five million strong army and twenty elite disciples, once the Yin Master School intervened, it was clear that they would be on the same side as the Heaven Sect. Even the Giant Spirit Sect, which was as strong as a tiger, would have to bow their heads to the two sects.

 C68

    "My sect''s Seventh Elder is well-known for his fame. I believe Brother Li has heard of his reputation. Since it was promised by him, it must be true." Wei Zheng said calmly.


    Li Gui pondered for a moment before slowly nodding and said, "Then I will decide for myself. I will let your sect handle this matter as it pleases."


    "That''s right." Wei Zheng smiled, then said resentfully, "But I just heard from Brother Li that the fairy identity is guarded by her. If we want to kill Lin Xing, that would be quite a difficult problem."


    "Brother Wei, don''t be impatient. I have a plan." Li Yu said.


    "Oh? You might as well tell me. " Wei Zheng''s expression faltered as he asked, seemingly interested.


    After that, Li Rou put her lips next to his ear. Although her lips were trembling, she could not make out her voice. Before long, Wei Zheng''s face was full of joy.


    The scene shifted to Lin Xing. After he entered the mansion, he went straight to the main hall.


    At this moment, everyone in the general''s manor was gathered in the great hall. The soldiers and servants were either squatting in a corner or making preparations for battle.


    "Young Master."


    When the sound of footsteps entered their ears, it immediately caused their taut strings to twitch. They reflexively took out their spirit sabers and wanted to go up and fight, but after seeing the appearance of the person, they breathed a sigh of relief and retrieved their sabers.


    "Young master, you can''t go out at this special moment. It''s too dangerous out there. The people who killed you are everywhere." The young master came forward and said anxiously.


    Lin Qi waved his sleeves, and his face was as gloomy as water. He ignored him and sat down on a bench.


    He raised his eyes to observe the shadows of the people in the hall. There were women crying in a corner. Some of the armored warriors were attacking with swords. If anyone rushed in, they would be the last barrier.


    Everyone''s faces were filled with fear, and their expressions were ugly.


    Gu Yuan was also present at the scene. He stood still, his face equally gloomy. Even when Lin Xing stepped in, his expression didn''t change much. From the beginning to the end, he didn''t utter a single word.


    "What''s the situation?" Only then did Lin Xing set his gaze on Ashan, and asked with a frown on his face.


    "Hai." Ah Shan let out a low sigh, his face was gloomy and gloomy. He took a deep breath and said, "Currently, as long as we are in the General''s Estate, no one has come back alive. Now, we are encircled by the cultivators of the two Sects, unable to even fly out a single bird. Furthermore, all of our business outside is also paralyzed. "


    "Are they serious? This is a tempo that is going to kill us all. " Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold as he mumbled to himself. His arm that was resting on the table could not help but tremble slightly.


    "Yes, Young Master, you should hurry up and think of a countermeasure. I also heard that Lu Kaiji brought eight hundred thousand elites to our capital to seek revenge for the murder of his son. He ignored the persuasion of the Heaven Ascension Sect and was determined to start a war with our Azure Silver Country. Ah Shan could not help but ask despite knowing that even Lin Qi was powerless to stop him.


    "Oh. My father should have received the news as well. Has he returned? " Lin Xing furrowed his brows and asked.


    Gu Yuan, on the other hand, answered first, "Foster father originally wanted to lead the army back, but he was detained by Liu Fengyu and Qian Que."


    Lin Xing tilted his gaze towards Gu Yuan and said indifferently, "This is good as well. Father will not be able to help if he leads the army back, and I don''t want to implicate him."


    "Young master, what do you mean by this? Are you giving up on resisting?" Ashan asked in a daze, leaning back.


    Everyone looked at him with disappointment. Even if Lin Xing gave up resisting, he would still have no chance at all with the blemish on his character. It would be better to risk it all and drag him down with them.


    "Give up on resistance? I haven''t even born a person who can make me wait for death to come. " Lin Qi sneered coldly.


    Hearing this, the disappointment in everyone''s eyes turned into confusion. Could it be that in this kind of ambush, Lin Xing still had some tricks up his sleeve?


    "How is the fairy?" Lin Xing asked again.


    After Ah Shan calmed his emotions, he scratched his head and replied: "After the two great sects'' army pushed down their borders, in order to avoid a fire from burning their bodies, more than half of Fairy''s envoys have left in the past two days. Only a small portion of them remained by Fairy''s side. However, the past two days have been quite abnormal for Fairy Lin. She often came out to walk around the Mansion. "


    Upon hearing these words, Lin Qi felt a tinge of emotion in his heart. This brat, Liang, was actually trying to protect the general''s manor.


    He had never met this brat in his life and had only met him twice. He was actually able to extend a helping hand in this moment of crisis. This caused him to feel endless gratitude and even tears in his eyes.


    His thoughts quickly came to this point. It seemed like Lin Xing had still underestimated this brat''s worth. To be able to make the two great sects angry without saying a word, it showed that her background was not as simple as being a disciple of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery.


    "Although we can''t leave the manor, with Fairy Maiden here, we are temporarily safe. Everyone can stay in the manor as per usual, everything will continue as usual." Lin Xing said.


    "Understood."


    Although everyone was at a loss, they still replied at the same time with miserable cries coming from the group of children and women squatting in the corners.


    They were all servants of the general''s manor for generations, so their loyalty to the manor was obvious. No one wanted to see the manor fall into an eternal disaster.


    Then, with a calm and composed expression, Lin Qi strode out of the main hall and returned to his room.


    After he left, everyone returned to their posts, and their daily lives remained the same. In addition, two courageous and experienced soldiers ran to stand guard in front of the manor gate.


    Such an abnormal action from the general''s manor naturally caused the group of Dark Dwellers to be at a loss. Some people suggested killing the two armored guards, but were stopped by Wei Zheng with a wave of his hand.


    That was because the two warriors were confident. Even under the gazes of so many vicious Dark Dwellers, they were still able to remain calm. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were reckless.


    But where did their courage come from? Wei Zheng and Li Fei were at a loss as to what to do.


    Could it be driven by that fairy? This possibility was not non-existent.


    All of the inns and restaurants on the outskirts of the General''s Estate were already rented out by the cultivators of the two sects. At every moment, there would be countless pairs of eyes watching the general''s Estate''s every move.


    At night, after Lin Xing comforted them during the day, the taut strings of the manor''s people fell off. They all returned to their rooms and laid on their beds, snoring loudly. Even the cultivators who were besieged outside could hear the deafening snores.


    This caused them to be greatly taken aback. Could it be that they didn''t know that this group of people were about to die? The butcher''s blade was already at his neck, yet he was still able to remain so calm. They couldn''t help but feel admiration for him.

 C69

    At night, Lin Qi lay in bed, unable to sleep at all. His mind was filled with countless thoughts and worries, as well as a lot of worries, especially concerning the life and death of the General''s Estate. He had to be cautious, taking responsibility for every step he took.


    The irritation in his heart increased and he was unable to fall asleep for a long time. He decided to just sit up and cultivate. In this world where the strong preyed on the weak, only strength was the truth.


    Now that he had fallen to such a state, he could only hate himself for being useless. He only hated himself for being weak like an ant, or else he would not have been able to survive.


    If he wasn''t even able to protect his home, how would he have the face to continue living in this world?


    The four different powers operated at the same time. They came out of his pores orderly and surrounded his body. They connected with each other, then went back into his body, poured into his golden mace, and refined it again.


    At the same time, his Ancient God Physique unleashed its full potential. The speed and frequency of the four types of energy circulating in his body was extremely shocking.


    The next morning, everything outside the inner mansion returned to normal, and a short period of peace and quiet was restored.


    A figure unknowingly appeared in the sky above the general''s manor. The figure stood in the air, his long robe fluttering in the wind. If one were to look from afar, one would see that he had the appearance of an expert.


    He was a member of the Elders Guild of the Sky Ascension Sect, Li Liu.


    "Fairy Maiden, I have long heard that you have come to the Skypiercing Sect to visit, and this really brings light to my humble abode. My Skypiercing Sect Master has heard of my great name and originally wanted to pay a visit personally, but because I have business with you, I was unable to do so."


    Although Li Leng''s voice was low, it was clearly audible. It was as if he had descended from the heavens, filling the ears of everyone in the manor.


    Everyone came out of their rooms and looked up at the elder who stood in midair.


    Lin Qi was no exception. The moment he heard this, he impatiently walked out of his room. Gu Yuan was standing not too far away, similarly to him as he looked up at Li Chuang with a thoughtful expression.


    That voice spread to every corner of the general''s manor, and even after a long time had passed, it still reverberated within the manor, lingering and lingering.


    Seeing that the fairy showed no signs of activity, Li Chuang did not seem to be in a hurry. Instead, he maintained a gentle smile, looking calm and composed.


    "Your Sky Sect''s method of making amends is really special. Now that you guys have arrived at the city and set up this ambush, isn''t this what you meant by making amends?" The youth did not appear, but his cold voice came from within the house.


    After hearing that, he shook his sleeves and spoke gently: "The reason why my sect''s cultivators are gathered here, is purely to capture a junior named Lin Qi. This person has done many evil deeds, was merciless and mercilessly killed my disciples, my sect''s disciples were furious, and wanted to challenge him, but who would have thought that he would actually act like a turtle that was hiding its head, and did not want to stay alive any longer. I heard that the goddess was cultivating here, so as to prevent the disciples from intruding, so as to not trample on the fairy''s clean land, when we leave, I will personally capture him."


    His intentions were profound and profound. He was clearly warning the kid that he couldn''t possibly live under his protection for the rest of his life.


    As these words were spoken, Lin Qi''s expression remained calm and his eyes sparkled like flowing light. On the other hand, Gu Yuan, who was standing nearby, had the corner of his mouth twitch. He raised his eyelids and shot a sidelong glance at Lin Qi.


    "What if I don''t leave?" This brat asked in a calm and emotionless manner.


    "Not leaving?"


    Li Leng''s smile froze, his expression extremely strange. He was very clear in his heart about the Fairy''s purpose for coming here. It was to find the legendary City of Lost.


    The Immortal''s cave was too illusory; he believed it only existed in legends, and could not possibly exist. After a long time, the goddess will definitely return without any success. But these words, is it that she intends to stay here for the long term?


    Soon after, he chuckled and said, "Fairy is truly humorous. If fairy is willing to stay in my Heaven''s Expanse Palace for a long time, then my Heaven Sect will have no problem at all. However, right now, my sect''s elders have sent an invitation to Fairy. They want to invite Fairy to our sect to drink some tea and enjoy the flowers. "


    "Not interested." The brat replied coldly.


    "Fairy Lin, don''t be in such a hurry to refuse. If you can come to my sect to be a guest, my sect will definitely have a big gift for you." Furthermore, Fairy Bao is satisfied. " Li Jun said coldly.


    "I''m not interested. Neither the divine arts nor the divine artifacts of the Sky Ascension Sect are of interest to me. If you have nothing to do, feel free to do as you please." The little brat''s displeased voice sounded from within the room.


    "Fairy, I wonder if the Flying Immortal Scripture can move your heart?" Li Chuang asked with a smile, his tone laced with a sense of pride.


    "Impossible ¡­" "The Flying Immortal Scripture disappeared during the ancient times, and even the great sects did not have it. Yet, you, a mere divine cultivation expert of the Skypiercing Sect, actually boasted that the Flying Immortal Scripture was hidden within. Do you really think that I can fool you?" The boy''s cold voice was first shocked, then assured, and then he began to sneer again, with an air of impatience.


    Of course I don''t have the true Flying Immortal Scripture, but there is a senior in my sect who coincidentally obtained a fragment of the Flying Immortal Scripture. Although it is only a small number, to a fairy, it is extremely important. Li Jun said coldly.


    The youngster was silent and did not reply for a long time.


    The expressions of Lin Xing, Gu Yuan, and the others darkened. In order to attract the attention of this kid, the Heaven Seeking Sect did one thing after another. They didn''t even hesitate to take out the sect''s immortal scriptures, all in order to slaughter the general''s manor.


    "Since it''s an apology, you should present it to me. Why do you want me to come to your sect? Wouldn''t that be superfluous? " Kid Leng finally responded. Her voice was calm as it came from the distance.


    Li Chuang crooked his mouth and said: "Fairy Lin might not know, but after my senior obtained the Flying Immortal Scripture''s remnant page, he imprinted that remnant page onto our sect''s Heavenly Stele. Furthermore, the Heavenly Stele is also our sect''s most valuable treasure, and unless there is a life or death situation, he will not easily move it. Second, since the fairy has descended upon the great land, it would be a good idea for the sect to visit the landscape of our sect, and to give some pointers to the younger generation of our sect. After all, many people in my sect have admired the fairy''s name for a long time, and only hate being unable to meet her. "


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, a woman in white clothes flew out from the room, also flying over. Separated by twenty meters, she stood opposite to Li Liu.


    The boy''s cool robe fluttered in the wind. His peerless appearance was extremely eye-catching. His peerlessly beautiful appearance made it so that people couldn''t control their emotions, and they were unable to feel even the slightest bit of blasphemy.


    "I can go with you, but I have a condition." The kid said coldly.


    "Please speak, Fairy!" Li Chuang said happily.


    "Lin Xing must come with me." He faintly glanced at Lin Qi, who was standing below him.

 C70

    Lin Qi was lost in thought as he stared at the white-clothed woman in the air. He finally understood why this brat didn''t hold back to protect him, to protect the General''s Estate.


    "This ¡­" Li Leng gnashed his teeth and fell into a dilemma. After pondering for a long time, he calmly said, "Since this is a fairy''s condition, how could I dare not agree. Let Lin Xing revisit his old location."


    "No ¡­"


    The young man''s voice was very decisive and straightforward. Lin Xing raised his head to look at the two silhouettes as he stated, "I can''t go. If I go to the Manor, I''ll be in danger."


    The little guy''s pupils shrank like pearls as he looked at him subtly, "How about this, you follow me to the Skysplit Sect, I will leave this jade pendant at my residence. If there really is an accident, as long as I crush this jade pendant, I will immediately sense it and rush over."


    With a flip of her palm, a small jade pendant appeared in her slender and jade-like hands. The entire pendant was glowing with a faint blue light as she threw it down. Lin Xing caught it and after a slight pause, he handed it over to Gu Yuan.


    The kid was afraid that Li Chuang might not feel reassured, so he warned Li Chuang, "This mansion is currently my place of cultivation, I don''t want to see a drop of blood here. If there really is a scene of blood splashing three feet away, you will definitely regret it. "


    His voice was like a demon''s voice that pierced his ears, causing Li Chuang to sweat profusely. He discovered that this brat''s cultivation was only stronger than his, and if they were to fight, he might not be a match for him.


    "Fairy, you''re overthinking it." Li Leng nodded with a smile that didn''t reach his eyes.


    "You can go with Fairy. There''s me in the manor." This was also a way to build relations with the fairy. With the fairy supporting him, the General''s Estate would at least be safe.


    Lin Qi thought for a moment and finally nodded his head. The goddess waved her hand and he rose up from the ground. A rainbow colored cloud appeared beneath his feet and carried him towards the goddess.


    "Please." Li Chuang tilted his mouth, revealing two rows of yellow teeth as he made a "please" gesture.


    The little brat''s eyes were as cold as the stars and the moon. Lin Xing was also calm as the moon. He controlled the rainbow clouds to fly towards the location of the gates of the Heavenly Ascension Sect.


    The Heavenly Ascension Sect wasn''t too far away from the Azure Silver Country. Furthermore, they were flying through the air, so they soon arrived above the sect.


    The mountains were encircled by mountains, the mountains were lush and verdant, ten thousand trees were verdant and lush. From above, the scene was overflowing with greenery, and the shadows of black figures could be faintly seen below. On top of the tallest mountain stood a magnificent, pitch-black hall. The entire area around the gates of the Skypiercing Sect could be seen from that spot, and that was the Deities Templar, which represented the supreme authority.


    It had been two years, but when he gazed at the outline of the scenery below him, he could not help but fall into a trance. His gaze shifted and inadvertently came across a mountain peak, and his heart was filled with a myriad of emotions.


    "Our sect has strict rules, and flying is forbidden in the sky above the sect gate. If there is any disobedience, then the sect''s law will govern. However, the fairy is an important guest of our sect, so we are naturally the exception." While they were flying in the air, Li Leng spoke softly.


    Kid Leng stared at the black palace in front of him, his expression did not change much, and he led Lin Qi straight into the palace.


    The two of them landed steadily at the same time. This brat was so beautiful that he seemed to float like a fairy. In an instant, he attracted the attention of many people on the mountain peak, and even though Lin Xing was also a delicate and pretty boy, he appeared slightly dimmer in comparison.


    The next step for them was to step onto the peak of the mountain. Li Chuang had a faint smile on his face. He had finally invited the fairy over. She was someone that even the various sects wanted to curry favor with.


    "Fairy Maiden, wait here for a while. I will go inform the Sect Master." After which, without waiting for the brat to nod his head, he directly walked into the black hall.


    "Isn''t this Lin Xing?" I''m not seeing things, right? "


    "That''s right, it''s really him. If he had not appeared before me today, I would have forgotten about him."


    Many young men and women were standing on the mountain peak. Their appearance on the Heaven Seeking Palace indirectly proved that they were all core disciples of the Heaven Seeking Sect. Many of them had been cultivating in the Heaven Seeking Sect since childhood and recognized Lin Xing, who had ''disappeared'' for two years.


    That year, when Lin Xing activated the Heavenly Cauldron and caused a great stir in the world, the news of that incident had still been deeply imprinted into the minds of the crowd. Thus, these disciples had instantly recognized him.


    "Lin Xing, it''s really you. God damn, the heavens truly have eyes. I can actually see you again. "


    A youth around the same age as Lin Xing walked over. His face was filled with excitement, and he couldn''t help but curse out loud. As he saw Lin Xing, he seemed very excited.


    "Wang Yin, it''s you. Long time no see." Lin Xing recognized the young man''s identity. With a slight smile on his face, he walked forward and clasped his arm.


    The two of them used to have a good relationship and were Lin Xing''s only friends in the Heaven Descending Sect. In the past, they were his shadow, following him wherever he went. It wasn''t an exaggeration to say that the two of them grew up in the same pair of pants.


    Wang Yin laughed heartily. "That''s right! Long time no see! I almost thought I would never see you again."


    "Aren''t you a disciple of Tianning Peak?" Why have we come to the Heaven Seeking Palace now? " After two years, they had just met again. Lin Xing was genuinely happy, but from Wang Yin''s appearance, it was clear that she had advanced.


    Since you left, those people have bullied me quite a bit in the past. With your big backer gone, I had no choice but to put my life on the line in order to cultivate, and because of my outstanding performance, I was transferred by the Elders Guild to the Hall of Heaven Seeking Palace, where I became a Hall Protector Disciple. However, only now do I understand that there is no shortage of other things here. "


    As he said that last sentence, he intentionally cast a cold glance at the three or four youths beside him.


    "You are quite talented, but too lazy. If you could diligently cultivate, then one of the five chief disciples positions would be yours." Lin Xing also followed Wang Yin''s gaze and discovered that there were a few youths standing there looking at them with unfriendly eyes. It was likely that they were the enemies of Wang Yin, who had provoked them in the Hall of Heavenly Mystery.


    Wang Yin''s talent was extremely high, even though he could not compare to his Ancient God''s physique, he was not that bad. Wang Yin''s talent was very high, even though he could not compare to his Ancient God''s physique, he was not that bad.


    Later on, Lin Xing was expelled from the sect, and there was no longer any Lin Xing to protect him. After that, his enemies all came rushing towards him, looking for trouble every day, forcing him to improve his strength, and only then did he, risking his life to train, fiercely charging into the Dao Division, defeating all those people, and even alerting an elder in the sect, begging him to be transferred to the Heaven Seeking Palace.

 C71

    "You are the ancient mystical genius from back then? I want to issue a challenge to you. "


    A provocative voice sounded. Looking towards the direction of the voice, they saw a few youths who had unfriendly gazes walking over.


    A young man wearing a crown pointed at Lin Qi''s head as he stepped forward to provoke him with a proud smile on his face. Judging from his aura, he too was a Dao Seeking expert.


    Upon seeing this scene, the young lad acted as if he didn''t see it at all, completely ignoring the group of small shrimps.


    "You want to challenge him? "Why don''t you take a piss first and try to act like a dog, even if Lin Xing is down and out right now, with me around, who would dare bully him?" Wang Yin stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Xing, his voice filled with rage.


    The Crown Prince''s face instantly turned ashen. He glared at Wang Yin and said, "Wang Yin. Mind your own business, we will settle our debts later. If he, Lin Xing, is a man today, then come out and fight me. "


    "Haha, the reason why you want to challenge him is simply to satisfy your vanity. Who doesn''t know about your little scheme? I said it already, you don''t have the qualifications to challenge him, so I advise you to scram as far as possible. If you disappoint this young master, don''t blame me for being ruthless. Wang Yin raised his middle finger and warned as if no one was around.


    "You ¡­" The Crown Prince and a few other youths around him all had incomparably gloomy expressions. To slap their faces in broad daylight was something intolerable.


    "Wang Yin, thank you for your good intentions." However, for you disciples of the Skysplit Sect to challenge me, I am truly flattered. How can I not fulfill your wish? " Lin Qi stretched out his arm to pull Wang Yin''s body away. He had a calm and composed expression on his face.


    "Haha, did you hear that, Wang Yin? You want to be a good person, but you don''t know how to put your hot face on that cold butt of yours." The Crown Prince laughed in ridicule, and an expression of satisfaction flashed across his face.


    Wang Yin said to Lin Qi in a dazed and dazed manner, "He is at the Dao Division realm, and you are not the same as you were in the past."


    In fact, Lin Qi was deliberately restraining his cultivation and the spiritual energy in his body was also faintly discernible. It was very difficult for them to identify his true strength with their abilities.


    "No problem, you can give it a try." Lin Qi pursed his lips, lifted his head and stepped forward.


    The Crown Prince sneered and waved his hand, signaling the others to retreat. His eyes suddenly focused as he shot out a punch towards Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi turned his body to the side and approached him, his shoulder striking out at his chest, causing his entire body to fly out. But before he could vent his anger, Lin Qi had already punched out, striking his chest.


    Puff ¡­


    The young man wearing the crown landed on the ground in a sorry state, and a clear red fist print seemed to have appeared on his face, causing the surrounding people to burst out in laughter.


    However, before they could even laugh twice, their voices suddenly stopped. Then, their expressions changed. They finally regained their senses. The person that was sent flying was not Lin Qi, but a young man with the strength of a Dao separation cultivator.


    Everything had happened in a split-second. Apart from this boy, no one could clearly see what had happened. The crowned youth had been sent flying, but they were certain that Lin Xing had only used one move.


    This was especially true for Wang Yin, who was pleasantly surprised and shocked.


    He then shifted his gaze to Lin Qi, only to see that he was still calm and composed, with a calm expression on his face, as though he was an expert with one hand behind his back.


    Seeing this scene, the crowned youth felt as if a fire had burned through his heart. Incomparable fury gushed from his seven orifices as he roared, "I''ll kill you!"


    His embarrassment turned into anger as he charged forward, wanting to use his killing move to vent his anger.


    Wang Yin let out a cold snort. His body flashed as he stood in front of Liu Ming.


    "Enough."


    However, just as the Crown Prince took half a step forward, an explosive shout sounded out from the entrance of the hall, like a clap of thunder. Instantly, he lost all his strength and collapsed onto the ground.


    Looking at the group of people walking out of the Heaven Seeking Palace, the Crown Prince''s face turned pale with fright. He quickly got up from the ground and stood there respectfully with his back bent.


    Wang Yin also restrained his smile and slightly lowered his head, not daring to speak again.


    The one walking in front was a bearded middle-aged man. He was dressed in silk clothing and had a stern expression and a stern expression. He had the dignity and domineering attitude of a person in power.


    Around him stood three white-haired old men and a young man. Li Liu was among them, and Lin Xing had noticed a familiar figure among them.


    The woman was wearing a light green robe with a string of pearls hanging from her neck. Her face was extremely white and tender, like butter, and seemed as if it was about to drip out water.


    He looked at Lin Qi with a slight frown, and astonishment flashed in the depths of his eyes.


    This woman was the Yin Valley Spirit.


    She stood beside the middle-aged man in embroidered clothes. This was his father, the famous Sect Master of the Heavenly Rising Sect, Baleful Yin.


    "All disciples, return. You don''t need to be on duty today." Baleful Yin said sternly.


    The Yin Sha were born in a noble clan of the underworld, and they were a murderous person in their early years. Only after they joined the Heaven Seeking Sect did they gradually refine out the evil Qi, but every time they got angry, they would still release it.


    Although today was a small matter, and was only a conflict between disciples of the younger generation, Fairy Maiden was an esteemed guest, representing the Profound Sky Sect. He did not want to lose face in front of Fairy Maiden, which was why he became incomparably solemn.


    "You go too."


    All the disciples had left, but Wang Yin was still reluctant to leave, pushing and shoving, unwilling to leave.


    Upon being scolded by the Yin Sha, his expression immediately changed. After Lin Zhi nodded in relief, he reluctantly turned around and left.


    Ten years ago, when I went to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery as a guest, I heard from the Profound Sky Sect''s Sect Master that the talent of the goddess was extraordinary and she was definitely not someone from the pond. Seeing her today, not only did she grow up to be such a great person, her cultivation could even make me speechless.


    Yin Sha sized up the kid''s cold and spirited appearance and couldn''t help but be startled. He walked forward and forced a smile on his face.


    I do not want to hit the smiling face of another person, furthermore, it is a Sect Master of a Divine Arts Sect. I, Xiao Leng, bowed and said: "Sect Master Yin is too courteous, ten years ago Sect Master Yin was fortunate enough to be a guest at my Gate of Heavenly Mystery, today I have come to visit you, and have already formed a deep friendship with you. Although the two sects are too far apart, we still need to get to know each other better."


    "Fairy Maiden''s words are very true. My Divine Arts Faction and Immortal Sect share the same roots and have some connections. If the disciples of the two Sects can interact frequently, they will definitely benefit from it and improve greatly." Our sect is currently building a teleportation formation. When it''s completed in the future, we will first open the formation with your sect. " Yin Sha said.


    "Teleportation circle? If that''s the case, then it would be a great blessing for our two sects. " The first thing that came out of his mouth was an astonished tone, followed by a soft chuckle.


    It was a formation that could directly cause one to jump into the void, and could reduce the gap between them by a lot. If the two sects communicated with each other, the distance between the Sky Sect and the Gate of Heavenly Mystery would only be one step.


    Two years ago, Lin Xing had heard that the Sky Sect was building a teleportation formation. This could no longer be considered a secret, which was why Baleful Yin was so outspoken.

 C72

    "Let me introduce you. This is my daughter, the Yin Valley Spirit."


    Yin Sha took a step back, and the Yin Valley Spirit standing next to him stepped forward, and gently smiled at him. They were both heaven''s pride experts of the younger generation, and after chatting for a while, Yin Sha had sent his daughter to get closer to him.


    "Before I entered the territory of the Sky Sect, I had already heard of Miss Yin''s great name. Now that I see her again, she is truly a beauty like a crown jade among jade." A look of amazement flashed across his cold eyes.


    "Fairy Maiden, for you to put it this way, you are truly trying to kill me. Compared to Fairy Maiden, I am slightly inferior." "Excuse me for asking, can you take off your veil and let me have a look, so that I can broaden my horizons?" The Yin Valley spirit stared at the boy coldly and said.


    Lin Xing discovered that the two beauties clashed, and that there was a sharp contrast between their words and words. The two of them were both very beautiful, but they were not the same type of beauty.


    This young man had a heavenly body that transcended the mortal world, akin to a fairy descending to the mortal world.


    The spirit of the Yin Valley was beautiful and graceful, elegant and leisurely like an orchid in a valley.


    "Please forgive me for being powerless at Miss Yin''s request. My veil was a gift from Master, and it has a deep meaning. On the other hand, Miss Yin praising me in such a manner really flattered me. I thought I was incomparable to her beauty. "How about this, let Lin Ming decide who is more ''breathtaking''."


    The little brat changed the topic, shifting the topic to Lin Xing. Lin Xing immediately felt his scalp tingle, as if he wanted to die. Even his body couldn''t help but shiver.


    With that, everyone''s gazes locked onto him.


    Especially the way the boy Liang and the spirit from the Yin Valley looked at him, the sharp glint in their eyes and the ice-cold look in their eyes made Lin Xing even more afraid.


    He was scared, scared from the bottom of his heart. Even though he was surrounded by the army of Giant Spirit soldiers, he wasn''t scared at all. However, right now, his heart was trembling with fear.


    "Both of you are rarely seen, one out of ten thousand devastatingly beautiful women. If you want me to tell who''s prettier, I really won''t be able to. " Lin Xing fought for his scalp and said with a sullen face.


    Hearing this, the two girls simultaneously withdrew their sharp gazes.


    The boy Liu was the first to break through the awkward atmosphere. He said to Yin Sha: "Sect Master Yin, you should be clear about my purpose in coming here. Can you bring me there now?"


    The Yin Sha laughed and waved his sleeves. He said, "I was just reminding you to follow me. I almost forgot the important matter."


    As he spoke, Yin Sha led a group of people into the grand hall. Lin Xing carefully followed behind him.


    The grand hall was magnificent, its interior resplendent in gold and jade. The interior was grand and resplendent, with a vast expanse of land. The great hall was grand and imposing, with a vast and resplendent copper door.


    The crowd nodded in agreement, but Lin Xing didn''t object. After all, this boy was the main guest and he was the accompanying guest. He had even less right to enter this heaven and earth.


    "No, Lin Xing must come in with me." At this moment, Kid Leng interrupted the Baleful Yin Fiend''s order and turned his body to the side, stroking his long hair.


    Hearing this, everyone''s expressions changed. They were all members of the upper echelons of the Skysplit Sect, so they were strictly prohibited from entering. Where did Lin Xing get the qualifications from? Fairy''s suggestion was too difficult.


    That Yin Sha''s face also darkened as he said in a muffled voice: "I cannot agree to this fairy''s suggestion. I will ascend to the heavens. I am not someone who can be accepted by any little cat or dog."


    "If Sect Master Yin does not agree, I am not willing to enter. Goodbye." After saying that, Lin Qi followed her out of the main hall.


    "Please wait, Fairy."


    The Yin Sha shouted with a helpless tone. Then, the two of them stopped and turned around to look.


    "I agree to Fairy Lin''s request, but Lin Xing can only stay at the outermost region and cannot enter any further." Yin Sha sighed helplessly.


    "Sure."


    In fact, this little brat didn''t really want to leave. This move was to retreat in order to advance, and it made Lin Xin tremble with fear. What if the Yin Sha was unyielding and didn''t agree? Doesn''t this mean that this kid will lose the chance to read the remnant page of the Flying Scripture when he''s cold?


    "This is the opportunity that I''ve fought for you. Take advantage of it." the boy whispered in his ear.


    Lin Qi was moved. It was just as the little brat had said; this was a chance he had won over him. As for whether or not he could grasp onto it, that was up to him.


    Since the Yin Sha had already agreed, the other Sky Sect executives didn''t know what to say.


    The three of them stepped through the bronze door. There was another world within, a world where the stars scattered everywhere. There was no end to the divine sense, and the starry river was resplendent as it burst forth with starlight.


    "This is a soul space, and it''s able to separate my consciousness." Kid Liang said to Lin Qi with a frown on his face.


    Hearing this, the Yin Sha appeared baffled, but Lin Qi''s heart tightened. This brat was telling him that if something were to happen to the general''s estate, she wouldn''t be able to sense it even if Gu Yuan crushed the jade pendant.


    "You are the previous head disciple of my sect, you have come here before as well. You know the rules, so I don''t need to say it, but I still have to remind you, you are only allowed to absorb this internal divine power, and are not allowed to randomly probe. "Also, you can stay here. You can''t go any further." Yin Sha stopped and solemnly said to Lin Xing.


    Lin Xing bitterly smiled and nodded his head, then sat down.


    Seeing him in such a state, Yin Sha laughed dryly in satisfaction and continued to walk forward with Xiao Yan.


    Soon, the two of them were engulfed by the sea of stars.


    This was a soul space, the largest form of a soul hole. His previous self was the soul hole of an elder disciple of the Skypiercing Sect.


    According to his knowledge, the Heaven Seeking Sect''s precious treasure was hidden within this soul fragment. After many years of refining it, it had already merged with this space, and if he didn''t have a secret technique to summon it, it wouldn''t be able to appear.


    The Heaven Sect had a rule that when an outer sect was promoted to an inner sect disciple, they could enter this space to cultivate for two hours to absorb the God Power inside, and when the inner sect was promoted to become the head disciple, they had the right to cultivate inside for two days.


    Lin Ming had awakened in this space three times before. One time was to advance to the position of chief, and the other two were obtained for him by his master, the Azure Jade Stone.


    The divine power in this space surged and absorbed the spirit energy from the outside. Then, it was refined into divine power by the formation.


    Although this method was slow and stupid, after so many years of accumulation, the God Power within had already reached an enormous degree.


    Lin Qi hurriedly sat down cross-legged to absorb the energy. He definitely couldn''t let go of such a good opportunity. He didn''t know how long it would take to finish this, so he fought against time to absorb as much of it as he could.


    Even if the divine force entered his body, it would still have to pass through the trump card. After rushing out once more, the color had clearly changed, and it had become even more pure and sturdy.


    CHI *


    Right at this moment, the entire golden mace trembled slightly, emitting a buzzing sound. Like a thunderclap, it exploded in Lin Xing''s head, causing his eyes to glow with golden light.

 C73

    The golden mace trembled, emitting a suction force that instantly caused Lin Zhi''s will to sink into that pitch-black space. At this moment, the space was not pitch-black, with specks of starlight shooting out into the distance.


    He steadied his mind and frowned as he walked forward. The starlight grew brighter and brighter, gradually growing larger in his eyes.


    Before long, two figures appeared in front of him. In front of them was a green wall that was translucent. There was a golden page floating on the wall. The place was densely covered with symbols, and the golden light almost covered the entire river of stars.


    Seeing the two people''s faces, Lin Xing''s expression immediately changed, a look of disbelief on his face.


    This was because the two people standing in front of him were precisely that brat Leng Ning and Yin Sha who had walked into the depths of his soul space a moment ago.


    Lin Xin could clearly see their every move, but the two of them did not notice Lin Qi. It was as if they did not notice him, a living person, at all.


    Towards this scene in front of him, Lin Qi thought hard for a long time before finally finding the answer.


    The space inside the golden mace overlapped with the space inside of the spirit space for a short while, and when Lin Qi''s mind entered the space, he could see everything outside clearly. Yet, he couldn''t see Xiao Liang and Yin Sha inside the space.


    Secretly thinking about it, this was perhaps the most reasonable explanation.


    He focused his gaze on the green translucent wall in front of them.


    That eighty percent was the Heavenly Stele. Under the summoning of the secret technique of the Yin Sha, it only revealed the tip of the iceberg.


    After observing for a long time, he still couldn''t figure out what was going on. He then walked towards the deeper parts of the soul space.


    A starry river spanned out in front of them. Within this river of stars, there were specks of halo and brilliant starlight that shone with a dazzling golden luster.


    Stars were born and destroyed one after another, sinking into an endless cycle of death.


    Buzz ¡­


    The golden mace trembled again and let out a humming sound. That sound came out from his seven orifices and resounded within the river of stars.


    Soon after, a golden light rushed out like lightning. It enlarged to the limit in his eyes, and in a blink of an eye, it rushed into his forehead and then into his mind.


    Shocked, he immediately closed the door to take a look inside. His face was green and white. When he opened his eyes again after a long time, they were filled with joy.


    "Fake destruction."


    What came into his mind was not only a divine art, but also a supreme secret art. At the same time, it was also a rare eye art.


    The Supreme Realm secret technique, as its name implied, was a divine technique created by the Great Honored Warrior. Every secret technique was a secret technique that the various sects never passed on to outsiders, so it was called a secret technique. The average possessed immense power and infinite mysteries, possessing an unfathomable might.


    Moreover, what was even more rare and precious was that this technique was also a rarely seen eye technique. The eye technique was known for its strangeness and ferocity, making it impossible to guard against.


    At the same time, in a cave of the Skypiercing Sky Sect, sat an old man in his prime. He was as thin as a match, and his hair was scarce. As the golden light shone into Lin Qi''s mind, he suddenly opened his eyes.


    "How dare you! How could you possibly spy on my school''s Secret Techniques?!"


    With an explosive shout that sounded like rolling thunder, his two fingers tapped on the empty space in front of him and a black light suddenly jumped out. In the next moment, it actually pulled a big hole in the air and rushed in.


    That black light was incomparably sharp, and it moved through the void as it wished. After breaking through the soul space, it went back into the mace space and went straight for Lin Xing''s head.


    Lin Qi was the first one to sense the danger. The next time he saw the void tremble, black sparks would burst out. He could not help but turn pale with fear as he activated all four types of strength in an instant.


    A black light shot out in an instant. The destructive power was enormous, causing even the void to tremble. With Lin Xing''s cultivation level, there was no way he could stop it as it directly entered into his head.


    At this moment of life and death, the golden trump card released a huge trembling sound that was as ear-piercing as a sharp sword. It automatically shot out a power to block that streak of black light outside, and after colliding for a long time, the two sides still did not stop.


    Boom ¡­


    Finally, it exploded right in front of Lin Xing''s face, erupting with astonishing power. His face was deathly pale from fright.


    The dust settled. Although the black light had disappeared, he was still pained by the fact that his trump card had become extremely dim, as if he had lost all of his spiritual power and turned into a piece of scrap metal.


    However, after some testing, he let out a long breath. The dark space was still there, but his golden mace had fallen asleep. This meant that he would no longer be able to help him refine the four types of powers.


    Because it was blocking the black light, the mace released all of its power. In the end, the black light was extinguished, and the mace lost all of its strength as well, falling into a deep slumber.


    When the golden mace fell asleep, it was as if he had cut off one of Lin Ming''s arms. At this moment, his heart was in unbearable pain, and there was no need to even mention how uncomfortable it was.


    Fortunately, the dark space could still be maintained by itself. Lin Qi did not dare to hesitate any longer. He withdrew his consciousness and returned to his original body.


    He opened his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. The disciples of the Sky Sect were still as barbaric and tyrannical as before. They had started to kill him immediately. If he didn''t take revenge for this, what face would he have left in this world?


    Right now, experts from the Sky Sect had discovered that he had obtained a secret technique, so he couldn''t stay any longer. Looking deeper into the sect, he couldn''t see the figures of Xiao Liang and Yin Sha.


    He was a disciple of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery and did not dare to do anything to her, but Lin Xing had no backer. If the Sky Sect wanted to kill him, it would be a piece of cake, they would not even be stained with blood.


    Not only that, if he continued to stay here, he would only drag this brat down.


    But as soon as he left the main hall, he started worrying about how he was going to get out of the huge mountain gate of the Skysword Sect.


    "Lin Xing, come here quickly."


    There was no one outside the hall, and all the disciples on duty had already withdrawn. Looking towards the source of the voice, he didn''t know when Wang Yin had appeared or when he had been waiting for a long time. He carefully called out to him.


    "Wang Yin, quickly take me away." Lin Xing said anxiously as he ran over.


    "Mm, quickly come with me. There is an order from a senior in the school that you must be captured alive. I heard that you''ve obtained a heavenly opportunity on the Heavenly Stele, right?" Wang Yin asked.


    "So fast?" It''s not really a lucky chance, but it just absorbed a bit more of the divine power. " It wasn''t that Lin Xing didn''t trust Wang Yin, but he didn''t want to implicate him.


    "That fairy has already been invited by our sect''s experts to ask the group of elders. This is a very serious matter, they''ve already spoken the truth, even the fairy cannot easily leave." Wang Yin said in fear.


    Lin Xing asked in surprise, "The fairy has already come out?"


    "Not bad, I was invited by a group of experts as soon as I came out. This matter should not be delayed. Come with me quickly, I''ll bring you out of the mountain gate." Wang Yin said anxiously.


    However, just as he was about to take two steps forward with Lin Xing, he was stopped by three figures.


    These three people appeared without a sound, causing Lin Xing and Wang Yin to jump in fright.


    There were two people that Lin Xing recognized; they were the Yin Valley Spirit and Li Chuang.


    Between the two of them stood a man of about thirty years of age. His facial features were as delicate as a knife. He was handsome, elegant, elegant, and had a refined smile on his face.


    "Hand over the secret skill and cripple your own cultivation. I''ll spare your life."


    The scholarly man''s smile remained on his face, but his tone was sharp. He gave off a feeling that he could not resist.

 C74

    "Secret technique? What secret technique?"


    Lin Qi knitted his brows as a hint of confusion flashed across his eyes. He then looked towards the three people in front of him with a sluggish expression.


    The corner of that scholarly man''s mouth raised, and then his eyes turned cold. He said in a stern voice, "Stop pretending to be stupid, the Great Elder has already examined that fairy once, and the secret technique was not something she obtained. Then there can only be one possibility, you have obtained the secret technique of my sect, and you have also been in the Skysplit Sect, so you should know the importance of this secret technique.


    "But I really don''t know what you''re talking about. I have never seen your so-called secret technique in my soul space. Oh right, what does it look like?" Lin Qi asked with his mouth wide open.


    "Enough, Lin Xing. Hand it over and I will have my father spare your life." The Yin Valley spirit said in a deep voice.


    In reality, the secret arts that Lin Xing had obtained were none other than secret arts. The Heavenly Stele Steps were the guardian treasure of the Skysplit Sect. Not only was it powerful, it was also extremely mysterious, having been left behind since the Primordial Era. If they wanted to obtain a secret art from it, they would need a great opportunity. They guessed that the secret art that Lin Xing obtained might never appear in the future, so they placed even greater importance on it.


    "What nonsense are you talking about? This person refuses to accept a toast. I will make him kneel in front of me and beg me to hand over the Secret Skill." Li Leng smiled sinisterly.


    "Mm, whatever, I''ll leave this person to you. Our sect''s secret technique must not fall into the hands of outsiders, if he doesn''t hand it over, then we will grind his bones into ashes. " A fierce expression appeared on the face of the scholarly man.


    Li Liu nodded in agreement. The Yin Valley spirit bit its lip, as if it couldn''t bear to do so.


    "Ha ha!"


    Lin Xing let out a miserable laugh, his clothes fluttering in the wind, his long hair fluttering in the wind, and his eyes filled with an incomparable sharpness. He then retracted his laughter, pointed at the scholarly man and shouted, "This is indeed a good method. "No wonder Bu Tiantong is in such dire straits right now."


    "What?" "Tian Tong!"


    Hearing this, the smile on the scholarly man''s face completely disappeared. His face was filled with shock and his body couldn''t help but tremble.


    His eyes were bloodshot as he spread out his power, causing a large amount of air to flow backwards. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and a black cloud covered the sun.


    "You know her? Where is she? What did they tell you? "


    He spoke incoherently as he asked three questions in a row. His face was slightly distorted, and he looked quite ferocious.


    Seeing his appearance, the Yin Valley Spirit Master and Li Shi were both shocked. Everyone in the upper echelons of the sect knew about the past between him and Bu Tiantong. It was a nightmare for him for the rest of his life. Now that he had been stirred up by Lin Qi, it was as if he had been possessed by a devil.


    Lin Xing''s guess was right. The scholarly man was the one that Bu Tiantong had mentioned to him before. He was the youngest Elder of the Heaven Ascension Sect, Qi Long.


    As soon as he heard the name ''Bu Tiantong,'' he went insane. Without waiting for Lin Xing''s reply, he flashed and appeared right in front of him.


    "Be careful!" Wang Yin exclaimed.


    It was unfathomably deep, and its movement was like that of a rabbit''s. Lin Xing did not even have the time to react before he was sent flying by a golden light. He rolled over twenty meters away, spitting out blood.


    He stood up quickly in shock, because he saw that Qi Long did not intend to let him go just like that.


    Lin Xing was dead for sure this time. The Yin Valley''s Spirit Heart could not bear it anymore, but it could not stop it either. It could not help but let out a deep sigh, full of regret.


    Qi Long''s strike was extremely powerful, over a hundred times more powerful than the previous one. If it were to land on Lin Ming''s body, then he would definitely die without a trace of his corpse.


    Lin Qi''s face was pale white as he used all of his strength to resist.


    Boom ¡­


    And in this moment of life or death, an explosive power that did not lose out to the dragon''s activation blocked Lin Xing''s body, completely blocking the dragon''s might and sending out a large amount of sparks and dust.


    Not long after, all the ashes dispersed, only to see an old figure appearing in front of Lin Qi. This figure''s stature was incomparably imposing in his eyes, almost causing him to break out in tears.


    "Master!" He covered his face with his hands as he cried out in disbelief and sorrow.


    It was a white-haired old man. He wore a large white robe, and his temples were like frost. His aged eyes seemed somewhat lifeless. He was Lin Xing''s former master, the Azure Jade Stone.


    It was two years later, and Master had become more experienced and haggard. There was a hint of worry on his face the entire time.


    Cang Yushi turned around and looked at him with the eyes of a parent looking at their own child. Her face was kind and there was an extra trace of kindness on it. She couldn''t help but take two steps towards him.


    However, his expression soon returned to normal. He stopped walking and raised his arm to wave his sleeves. All of his benevolence turned into a long sigh.


    "Wake up, you were once my pride, but now you have become my scar. Our relationship as master and disciple was severed two years ago. I will never be your master again." Cang Yushi sighed as tears streamed down her face.


    He thought of how his Master had doted on him so much in the past, and how he had offended so many elders in the Heaven Seeking Sect to give him better resources to cultivate. Taking the matter of entering the Heaven Stele dimension for example, he didn''t know how much face his Master had put up to him in order to get it for him.


    Back then, Lin Xing had been his pride, his hope.


    Lin Qi trained diligently, his cultivation level kept rising, and he was never disappointed. However, the Ancient God''s body was not to be trifled with, so without any warning, a heavenly tribulation struck down, extinguishing all of the Azure Jade Stone''s hope.


    Needless to say, the heavens had played a big joke on him.


    Suddenly, with a flip of his hand, Cang Yushi retrieved a white talisman from the soul hole. It flew out and stuck it on Lin Xing''s head.


    "Flying Talisman."


    Lin Xing suddenly felt his body become light and light. His feet lifted off the ground, and the azure jade stone released a majestic energy that sent him flying high into the sky.


    "Hurry up and leave." The azure jade stone sent out another surge of energy, pushing him out of the entrance of the Heavenly Sect.


    Qi Long''s expression changed. Just as he was about to give chase, he was stopped by Cang Yushi. He said, "Today, no one can touch him."


    "Hmph." Elder Cang, you have truly gone mad. I want to see how you explain this to Great Elder. "


    Qi Long''s face was gloomy. He let out a roar and waved his sleeves as he left.


    The azure jade stone was older than him, and its cultivation base was higher than his. With the azure jade stone blocking it, Qi Long had no other choice.


    Lin Qi was originally a fish on the chopping block, allowing him to slaughter them as he pleased. However, he had never expected that an azure jade stone would appear here.


    However, the Great Honored Warrior technique did not allow for any mistakes. He had only taken two steps when he instructed Li Leng: "Send people to chase him. If he is alive, we need to see him. If he is dead, we need to see his corpse."

 C75

    That flight talisman directly sent Lin Xing out of the gates of the Heaven Ascension Sect, then flew him another five hundred miles before his spirit completely vanished.


    This was a secret talisman crafted from Azure Jade Stone. Although its duration wasn''t long, it was still extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it was already 500 miles away from Lin Xing.


    The symbols dissipated due to the exhaustion of his spirituality. At this moment, Lin Xing appeared within a barren mountain. He did not stop, rushing towards the capital city of the Azure Silver Country. With the Sky Sect''s personality, they definitely wouldn''t let go of the Venerate Heavens Sect''s secret arts. They would definitely have more troops chasing after them.


    Moreover, there was always a bad premonition in his heart that originated from the general''s estate, so he had to rush back even more impatiently.


    Because the distance was too far, even if Lin Qi galloped, the horses galloped and the whips lashed, he did not stop for a moment. In order to avoid being chased down, he purposely took a long detour and finally arrived at the capital two days later.


    He was already severely injured, and after running for two days, he didn''t have the time to use the Pulse Pushing Method to treat his wounds. His face was pale and he looked sickly, as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind.


    At this moment, he was in a sorry state. His hair was in a mess and he was emitting a strange smell. His clothes were torn in many places by tree branches.


    He walked quickly through the city gate. As soon as he entered, he saw that there was no one on the street. It was a desolate and quiet place with a strange atmosphere.


    His heart skipped a beat when he saw this. The unease in his heart grew stronger and stronger as he sped towards the general''s estate.


    As soon as he entered, he lifted his eyes to take a look, and his expression immediately changed. He saw corpses strewn across the ground, and blood was everywhere. It was too horrible to look at.


    There were armored soldiers, women, children, and elderly people. They were all people from the general''s manor.


    He let out a bellow of rage and charged toward the main hall.


    There were two people lying in the lobby, one was Gu Yuan and the other was Ashan.


    Gu Yuan was lying on the wall with his back against it. His face was pale and bloodless. Lin Xing hastily stepped forward to investigate and discovered that Gu Yuan''s breath was faint and he was on the verge of death.


    He immediately took out a bunch of spiritual medicines from his soul cave, and with the help of the Pulse Pushing Method, refined them into strands of fresh air, and then drilled it into his nostrils.


    After a while, Gu Yuan''s breathing calmed down and his face returned to its normal color. Lin Xing let out a long sigh of relief. He had finally recovered. Due to the severe injuries, he had fallen into a deep sleep.


    "Young master ¡­"


    Ah Shan was lying in the corner of the hall, still breathing. He called out to Lin Xing weakly.


    Lin Xing quickly rushed over and immediately executed the Pulse Pushing Method to help him heal his injuries.


    "Don''t talk, I won''t let you die."


    In truth, Ah Shan''s injuries were much lighter than Gu Yuan''s, but what made Lin Qi sad was that his right arm had been chopped off, and his bloody arm was right beside him. Blood kept flowing out of his wound, and if he had been even a little later, Ah Shan would have died.


    Circulating his Pushing Pulse Technique, he stopped the blood from flowing out of Ashan''s shoulder. He said weakly, "Young Master, I thought we would be separated forever. It''s good that you came back safely."


    "No, I won''t die, and neither will you." Lin Xing shouted in anger, taking a deep breath to comfort his opponent.


    He gritted his teeth and asked, "Who did this?"


    Lin Xing knew very well who had slaughtered the General''s Manor, but he still wanted to know clearly.


    "It''s the people from the Yin Sect. They are too vicious. All of them, with the exception of Young Master Gu Yuan and me, died tragically." If not for Fairy Lin rushing over at that last moment, both of us would have died long ago. " Ashan lay on the ground crying, his face filled with resentment and grief.


    "Where did you go now?" Lin Xing asked in a calm tone.


    "He went after Wei Zheng. I wonder how things are going now." Ashan said weakly.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi''s eyes were bloodshot. The hatred in his heart was simply incomparable.


    He calmed himself down and comforted Ah Shan, "Stay with Gu Yuan in the mansion and wait for me. I''ll be out for a while. I''ll be back soon."


    Then, he turned around and dashed out. Just as he walked into the courtyard and swept his gaze over the corpses on the ground, he suddenly faced the sky and let out a long howl. Two streaks of blood flowed down from his eyes.


    "The Heavens are unfair."


    In the next moment, he ran out of the manor and headed outside of the city.


    This enmity was irreconcilable!


    He was about to take his revenge!


    Half a month later, in the grand hall of the Giant Spirit Sect, which was located an unknown distance away from the Heavenly Domain, the Giant Spirit Sect Sovereign and all the elders held their breath as they stared at the scene before them.


    It was a pitch-black scene, as unfathomable as a black hole. Among them, two of them had blood-red eyes as big as the moon, which were especially eye-catching. From time to time, heavy and ancient gasps could be heard from them.


    At this moment, the senior executives of the Giant Spirit Sect had watched this scene more than ten times.


    Everyone''s expression was incredibly solemn, but they were still a bit bewildered. They held their breath and watched again and again without making a sound.


    "Fourth Elder, who brought this scene over?" The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader emitted a dignified aura as he solemnly asked the person below.


    An old man with bright eyes came out from below and answered respectfully, "This is an outer disciple that was found outside the mountain gate. As for who it was, I''m sending someone to investigate. I believe the results will be out soon."


    He could not help but shiver, causing him to feel a chill on his back. He said: "Could this be an ancestor of my Absolute Body Faction? Looking at his appearance, he should be suppressed by someone right now. From the looks of it, this was done by Ming Zong."


    As he said that, his killing intent surged from the bottom of his heart.


    "I think so. Although this is an ancestor of our sect, the person who sent the image was even more sinister, obviously trying to sow discord between our sect and the underworld sects. Right now, our sect and the Sky Ascension Sect are at war, it is no longer appropriate to provoke any strong enemies." Another old man said.


    The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader thought for a long time before finally nodding in agreement, "That is true. Fourth Elder, send someone to investigate the authenticity of this information. You must give me a definite answer."


    "Yes ¡­" As soon as the Fourth Elder said that word, a heavy voice came from the back mountain of the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "There''s no need to investigate. I can tell you all right now that the person being sealed is one of my ancestor''s from the Body Severing Faction."


    That voice was deep and ancient, as if it came from a distant time and place and entered everyone''s ears.


    Everyone in the hall was shocked. All of them revealed looks of reverence. Even the Giant Spirit Sect leader stood up and bowed towards the back of the mountain.


    "How many years has it been? Is everything of that year finally going to come to an end? Old Ancestor, how much have you suffered all these years? "


    The voice traveled forth once again, as if it was mumbling to itself.


    "Master, which ancestor is this?" He actually survived until now. " Giant Spirit Sect leader sucked in a breath of cold air.


    "For the time being, you all do not need to ask. Saving the Old Ancestor is the most important matter right now. Our sect''s experts have all come out, all the elders and higher ups have all moved, heading towards Black Wind Mountain. "Then, we will recruit five million elite warriors from the countries under our command and charge towards the Shadow Sect to build a sect. I will make this group of Dark Sect members pay with their blood." That ancient voice suddenly overflowed with killing intent and continued to roar.


    When these words were spoken, everyone paled. Was this for real? They all tried to guess who the Old Ancestor was. He wanted the sect elder to send out all of the sect''s experts to rescue him, and he also wanted to break all ties with the Anchor Sect.


    "Then what about the Sky Sect?" The Giant Spirit Sect leader was dazed for a moment.


    "Hmph, it was just a small fight between the Sky Sect and us. What was it? It was not worth mentioning. "Now that the Yin Master Sect is our mortal enemy, I order you to bring the old ancestor back safely." The ancient voice issued a stern order.


    "Yes sir!"

 C76

    Night, Black Wind Mountain.


    Black clouds covered the moon, not a trace of light could be seen.


    The world was completely silent!


    "Who is it? Who was it that leaked the secret of our sect? I will make him beg for death!"


    A furious roar broke the silence. Although the voice was old, it was like a thunderclap, and it resounded through the sky, causing the earth to tremble violently.


    For a time, endless angry roars shook the heavens, and an incomparable force field spread out in all directions.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    In the next moment, a giant descended from the sky. It was over a hundred meters tall, and its body was incomparably huge. One of its feet was as big as a mountain, and its entire body was surging with energy, comparable to a divine beast.


    Boom ¡­


    The two gigantic feet landed on Black Wind Mountain, creating a large wave of air. The ground shook as if there was an earthquake, causing all the plants to fly up.


    "Giant Spirit Sect, you''re crazy!"


    The angry roar immediately stopped and turned into a terrified one.


    The giant punched the ground again, and an even more shocking wave appeared, causing the sound to completely disappear.


    At the same time, another group of people descended from the sky. They all released a shocking aura, landing a hundred meters above the ground as they stood there.


    "Those who go into the underworld will not be kept alive. They will be killed without question." The Giant Spirit Sect leader''s voice was choked with anger and killing intent. With a wave of his sleeve, he led the group of Giant Spirit Sect experts towards the place where Big Tomb Zai was sealed.


    In the next moment, his body disappeared and the group of Giant Spirit Sect experts reappeared.


    The mountain range there was originally extended, but now it had all been moved away, forming a huge black pit. There were also ten giants standing tall outside the giant pit. Each of them were like divine beasts from ancient times. Their sharp eyes were capable of capturing people''s souls as they strictly forbade anyone from approaching.


    Looking down from the pit, there was a giant human body lying down in the abyss. He was a thousand meters long, his face was dark, the skin on his body was shriveled up and pitch black, and the entire body was covered with cracks, it could be said that he was in a state of devastation. What was even more shocking, was that from the cracks one after another, sinister spirits kept coming out, as if they were consuming his flesh.


    "Old Ancestor ¡­"


    When they saw this scene, all the experts of the Giant Spirit Sect kneeled down and kowtowed. Some of them even cried out in pain as their liver broke and their intestines ruptured.


    The men from the Dark Sect were too cruel, they sealed the Great Honored Warrior here, but because of his strong physical body, it was difficult to kill him, so they used their ghosts to eat his flesh and blood, slowly obliterating his will and body.


    After so many years, even a supreme expert would not be able to withstand it. Their breathing was very weak, and their life force was running out.


    "My absolute body and the Underworld Sect are irreconcilable. "If we are to increase the number of troops, we must make the Yin Master School pay with blood."


    When the Giant Spirit Master swore that he still had some scruples at first, then when he found out about the giant''s identity and saw the scene before him, he went crazy. Without caring about the consequences, he sent more troops out to fight.


    The Absolute Body Branch placed particular emphasis on bloodline inheritance. To put it bluntly, the Giant Spirit Sect''s predecessor was an alliance formed by many families that cultivated the absolute body. After generations of inheritances and fusing together, they formed the Giant Spirit Sect.


    Therefore, the descendants of the absolute body would all respectfully call them their ancestors.


    Over a hundred layers of invisible energy revolved around him, enveloping him in layers. They were used to suppress his seal, and although they were not black qi, they were extremely ferocious, causing the expressions of the Giant Spirit Sect''s experts to change.


    At this moment, the seven or eight people were discussing how to break the seal and figure out a way to break it.


    "When can we break the formation?" the Giant Spirit Grandmaster asked.


    One of them sighed and said, "This seal is too strong. Although it has been eroded by the wind and rain for many years, it still has some traces of loosening, but for us, it is still a thorny problem. The person who placed this seal must be one of the great Honored Warriors of the underworld."


    "No need for nonsense, just tell me when you can release the seal." The Giant Spirit Sect leader said impatiently.


    "We''ve already figured out the solution, but it will take us at least half a month." An array master said.


    "Half a month?" The Giant Spirit Sect leader''s eyes turned cold, then he sneered: "As soon as possible. This place is not the territory of my Giant Spirit Sect, so as to not cause too much trouble, saving the Old Ancestor is the greatest priority of our sect. "


    "Yes sir!" The seven or eight array masters nodded in agreement.


    The fact that experts from the Giant Spirit Sect had come out to rescue the Dazhou Gang quickly shook the world. In that moment, all sects were shaken and the world was in an uproar.


    The most unfortunate one was the Azure Silver Country. Whether it was the powerful officials or the ordinary citizens, they all felt as if the sky had fallen.


    Hearing the news, the king had just issued an order to move to the capital. He couldn''t afford to offend her, but he could avoid her.


    The capital city was too close to the place where Big Tomb Slaughter was suppressed. It was only two hundred miles away. The people living in the city could only raise their heads to see the giant figures standing not too far away.


    The news had just been released that Lin Shen was leading his army back to the imperial capital. He had entered the imperial court alone, and he was rejecting public criticism by persuading the king to issue a report to the world in order to stabilize the people''s minds.


    The king was afraid of his military power, so he agreed to cancel his move to the capital. But what Lin Shen did not expect was that night, the king sneaked out of the capital with his concubines and officials.


    At the same time, more than twenty Elders were sitting cross-legged in a circle in the Heaven Seeking Palace. In the middle, there was a flame that was even more dazzling than sunlight.


    "Elder Li, can you be a little more promising?" The reason why you went through so much trouble is to kill Lin Qi. Because of your actions, you almost made my sect stand against you, fairy. What do you have to say for yourself? " Yin Sha shifted his gaze to Li Chuang and coldly said.


    Li Chuang''s eyelids jumped, but he nodded his head and said, "Sovereign, I was too careless on this matter, who would have thought that the guard would be so impulsive and mess up my plan, but don''t worry Sovereign, this is not a bad thing, the general''s residence has all died by the hands of the guard, it has nothing to do with the Sky Sect, even if the fairy is angry, she will only hate the Yin Sect."


    He did not dare to breathe too loudly here. His tone was tactful, and his face was filled with reverence. In fact, although he was also a member of the Elders Guild, he was not at all ranked, being at the bottom. He was only slightly stronger than an ordinary Elder.


    "It''s best if it''s like this. If you anger the fairy, I''ll punish you." Yin Sha looked over with cold eyes.


    "Sect Master, now that the Giant Spirit Sect has sent out all of their experts, they are obviously planning to take action. Should we take advantage of this moment to take action?"


    An old man frowned and changed the topic. This was the main topic of their discussion.


    "This is a huge matter, so I have recruited all of the elders to discuss with each other. The Giant Spirit Sect is a group of lunatics, so I suggest that our school not act rashly for the time being." Yin Sha looked away and said.


    What the Sect Leader said is reasonable, a Great Honored Warrior has appeared, there are many more people who are more anxious than us, why should our sect take the lead, moreover the one who is in such a difficult situation should be the Yin Master School, I heard that after the battle at Black Wind Mountain, the Yin Master Sect had already lost three Heavenly Lake Stage old monsters, haha, let them fight, our sect will reap the benefits of the people, isn''t that better?


    The person who spoke was an old man. He was as thin as a twig, and there was only a skeleton left on him. His eyes were gloomy.


    The moment he opened his mouth, everyone''s gaze turned towards him. He was the Great Elder of the Heaven Ascension Sect. Being in charge of the Elders Guild was even more important than the Yin Sha.


    Then, everyone in the hall began to laugh.

 C77

    Just as the commotion was boiling over, someone noticed something important. A lowly but important person had gone missing.


    Lin Xing seemed to have vanished into thin air. Even Lin Shen didn''t know where he had run off to.


    Furthermore, he possessed the secret arts of the Supreme Realm, and the Sky Sect had sent people all over the world to capture him.


    At this time, in a faraway pavilion on the Giant Spirit Land, Lin Xing and Li Wu were looking at a black bow.


    The black bow was simple and unadorned; it looked like it was forged with ordinary steel. It was placed on top of a copper table and sealed in the deepest part of the pavilion.


    This was a treasure chamber filled with all kinds of treasures. Even Lin Xing was dazzled by it. Li Wuquan did not hesitate to spend a large amount of money to hire experts to guard it.


    Lin Qi sighed with emotion. It was an eye-opener for him. Li Wu''s family was very rich.


    The black bow was inconspicuous when compared to many precious treasures, but for Li Wu to value it so highly, it must be extraordinary.


    "Benefactor, an expert appeared in my ancestor as well. This Black God Bow was my ancestor''s lifeblood weapon. The bow was made of Myriad Profound Iron and weighed ten thousand pounds. The bowstring was even a Black Flood Dragon''s spine. The Black Flood Dragon was an extremely cold and abnormally tough creature. Thus, it did not fear water or fire, nor did it fear swords and spears. The highest range is eight hundred kilometers. Li Wu pointed to the black bow on the table and introduced it to Lin Xing.


    "Oh? The damage is actually so terrifying? " Lin Xing was shocked.


    At the same time, he grabbed the black bow. Just as he was about to raise it, his expression changed and he mustered all his strength. With a low roar, he lifted the Black God Bow with one hand.


    "It really weighs ten thousand Jin." Sweat began to form on his forehead when he mentioned the Black God Bow. Even with his cultivation, he was unable to withstand it.


    Li Wu''s eyes were like torches as he smiled and said: "I know that my benefactor is currently surrounded on all sides, and with my strength, I cannot help you, but I am willing to do my best to give this bow to my benefactor."


    "Thank you very much. This kindness, I shall forever remember. " Instead of being polite, Lin Qi kept the Black God Bow into his soul hole and thanked Li Wu.


    Then, he walked up to the window, looked out at the territory of the Skypiercing Sect, and said in a deep voice, "I''ll use this bow to kill my way back."


    "Go back?" Li Wu was stunned, then he laughed bitterly: "My benefactor, you cannot be rash. According to my investigation, the Sky Sect has pushed you to the heart of the struggle, and people are looking for you everywhere. If you go back now, I''m afraid something bad is going to happen, so why don''t you stay here for a while and wait for the news to pass?"


    "But this is my home, there are my family. Even if there is a fairy protecting my general''s manor, if I don''t return soon, there is no guarantee that the Heaven Sect will do something out of line." Lin Xing sighed.


    Blame it on the fact that he had the Art of the Great Honored Warrior. The importance of the Art of the Honored Warrior was self-evident, causing the Heaven Seeking Sect to be unable to remain calm. They would never stop until they got it back.


    Li Wu sighed and no longer tried to persuade her. He then led Lin Xing out of the pavilion.


    During the night, he would drink with Lin Xing at the same table as he did before.


    The next morning, Lin Xing left alone.


    Before he left, he had Li Wuming help him forge a mask. Once his face stepped into the Heavenly Domain, he would definitely become the target of public criticism. He didn''t want to attract too much attention.


    Moreover, Li Wu gave him a hundred Darksteel arrows, which he stored in the Soul Cave together with the Black God Bow.


    As he was on his way back to the Sky Sect, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around, took out his blade from his soul hole, and rushed into the mountain.


    Not long after, the miserable shrieks of low level spirit beasts could be heard from within the mountain.


    He was tempering himself with the fact that the Spiritual Molding Mountain was the best place for him. In this place where no one was around, he used all of his trump cards and released all kinds of power. He slaughtered everyone in every direction, leaving not even a blade of grass behind.


    In the mountains, sand and dust flew everywhere. The screams of the spirit beasts rose and fell, shaking the entire sky.


    At night, he finally became tired. His entire body was covered in blood, and many bloody wounds were also revealed on his body. He collapsed on the grass, his expression incomparably solemn, without a single trace of emotion.


    It was because he was too tired, physically and mentally exhausted. He was drowsy, and really wanted to sleep until the end of time.


    But he couldn''t.


    He gritted his teeth and climbed to his feet with great difficulty. With the bloody saber in his hand, he charged into the depths of the Spirit Molten Mountain.


    Two days later, Lin Xing was sitting cross-legged on the ground in a dense bush. His eyes seemed to be infinitely large.


    In the depths of his pupils, it was as if there were two enormous black holes. They were so vast and deep that they struck into one''s soul, and they shrank an inch forward as if they were able to swallow this entire world.


    Suddenly, two balls of green light shot out from the black hole. They were extremely sharp. They pierced through the air and landed on the body of a spirit beast that was hiding nearby.


    Before the spirit beast could react, its expression turned dazed and confused. The ominous aura completely disappeared and it quietly looked at Lin Xing, as if it didn''t know what to do.


    After a while, the spirit beast finally came back to its senses. It seemed to have regained its consciousness. It looked at Lin Xing again, fear written all over its face as it ran into the grass.


    This was the secret art of the Great Honored Warrior, the Fake Destruction.


    The biggest effect of this technique was to cause a person to be stunned for a short period of time and remove all of their consciousness. Of course, this was also the reason why Lin Xing had just started cultivating this technique.


    Other than dizziness, the power of the technique was even greater. A pair of eyes seemed to be able to swallow everything, and it was good at catching people by surprise.


    Then, Lin Qi withdrew his black hole like pupils and returned to their normal state. His pair of eyes were deep and bright, glowing with a light that could easily captivate a person.


    This was the result of his two days of practice. Not only had his combat experience greatly increased, but his temperament had also evolved.


    After going through the baptism of blood, it was not a bad thing. The mind received an unprecedented ''purification''. It only recognized one principle, and it only survived through slaughter. Natural selection, survival of the fittest.


    "Finally, one day, all living things in the universe shall be killed by me!"


    After he said this, he withdrew his mind and looked at the large pile of colourful items beside him.


    It was a pile of beast cores. It was something he had taken out from the body of the spirit beast he had killed in the past two days.


    The beast cores were the most valuable items for a Spirit Beast. They contained the purest Spiritual Energy within the world. Even if you sold the lowest grade of beast cores, the minimum price would be five hundred Spirit Crystals.


    He grabbed all the beast cores in front of his feet and held them in both hands, absorbing the spirit energy from the two beast cores at the same time.


    He had already advanced to Dao Division, so his spiritual energy definitely wouldn''t be enough to satisfy his needs. After entering his body, he immediately refined it into immortal energy or divine power.


    At the same time, he thought to himself bitterly, if the mace wasn''t asleep, how could he have spent so much effort to refine it? At that time, after entering his body and being tempered by the golden mace, it would directly transform into a type of energy.

 C78

    In the forest, Lin Qi was wielding a bloody blade, his eyes were cold. Although he was wearing a mask, others could still sense the ferocity in his face.


    Beside him, there was a spirit beast whose stomach had been cut open. Large amounts of blood intestines rolled out of its body, along with a pungent smell. Within the large pile of blood intestines, there was a multi-colored beast core shining.


    From the looks of it, this was only the lowest grade of Spiritual Beasts. However, Lin Xing had never seen a Beast Pill before. Compared to other Beast Pills, it was not monotonous and overflowing with light and color.


    "Ye Feihua said before that there was a change in the Spirit Creation Mountain. Could it be a change in some sort of power?"


    At that time, he thought, Ye Feihua did not say what exactly it was. Perhaps even Ye Feihua himself did not know.


    Moreover, although this low level spirit beast''s battle power could not be considered strong, it had an extremely strong explosive strength and tenacity. In the end, Lin Xing cut open its stomach, yet it was still breathing and even twitching.


    After pondering for a long time, he finally shook his head, unable to find an answer. Then, he used the Mo Dao to pick up the Rainbow Beast Pill and stored it in his soul cave.


    The forest shook and grass and rocks were shattered. A mutated spirit beast appeared in the distance with explosive strength. It tore through everything as if it was made of rotten wood and was unstoppable. Large trees collapsed and were snapped in half.


    It had a pair of wings on its back, and its body resembled that of a tiger''s. Its wings seemed to be made up of countless sharp blades, incomparably sharp.


    The two young men and women that were fighting were all agile and extremely agile. They were able to easily withstand the attacks of the spirit beasts, but because the spirit beasts'' bodies were too strong, they couldn''t kill them in a short period of time.


    Especially the man, who was wearing a daoist robe and holding a crystal gourd. When the blade came from the back of the spirit beast, he slightly twisted the gourd''s mouth and directly put away the entire blade.


    As for the young woman, she was elegantly dressed in purple. Her body was suspended in midair with the help of a tree branch, giving the spirit beast a heavy blow from above.


    The two of them were very strong, but the spirit beast was even stronger. It was obvious that it was not a low ranked spirit beast. It had a fierce aura, but its body was as big as a bird, and it was as fast as lightning.


    It raised its hooves and let out a shocking roar as a large wave of air surged out from its mouth.


    "Shadow, be careful."


    The shock wave broke all the ancient trees around her, and with a slight misstep, the young woman was knocked over ten meters away, causing the man below her to let out a scream and quickly rush over.


    The spirit beast opened its mouth wide and bit out. When the woman flew out and saw the scene in front of her, her beautiful face immediately turned pale. The man''s expression also changed and he immediately released the unique aura of the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    CHI *


    Right at this moment, a sharp piercing sound rang out. An arrow pierced through layers of grass from afar and shot into the mouth of the spirit beast. It then pierced through the beast''s body.


    The speed of the arrow was astonishing and it was extremely powerful. An electric arc streaked across the sky. The Spirit Beast was struck by the arrow before it could recover from its shock.


    Following that, it gave two low growls, and in the next moment, its massive body collapsed with a loud bang, completely taking its life.


    The man and woman looked surprised, especially the woman, who couldn''t help but look towards the direction the arrow had come from.


    There was a young man standing there. He wore a bronze mask and seemed to be deliberately concealing his identity. In his hand was a plain and unadorned black bow. The arrow was shot by him, and the bowstring was still trembling slightly.


    Lin Qi slowly walked over and put the Black God Bow back into his soul hole. He then took out his blade and cut open the stomach of the dead spirit beast. He then took out the arrow he had shot just now as if there was no one around and put away the Rainbow Beast Pill.


    Seeing his actions, the two men and women did not say anything, nor did they have any intention of fighting. Instead, they revealed expressions of surprise.


    If they hadn''t seen wrongly, the masked youth had taken out the blade from the cave of souls. But after several tests, they were convinced that this youth was only at the Dao Seeking stage.


    As everyone knew, only those in the Heaven Smiting Stage could open a soul hole, and even those in the Dao Division Stage already had a soul hole. With their experience, they had never heard of such a soul hole.


    Perhaps this was a genius from a big sect, even though the daoist-robed young man was only at the Heaven Smiting Stage, he did not underestimate Lin Xing. He hung the Amethyst Gourd by his waist, cupped his hands and said: "My friend, you are indeed right, thank you for saving my junior sister''s life."


    "That''s right. This little girl, Zi Yin, is here to thank you." Ziying also walked over, giving Lin Xing a slight bow.


    Fellow Daoist ¡­


    Lin Xing''s eyes glazed over as he sized up the two of them. He immediately understood the identity of the two of them. Just like Ye Feihua and Kid, they were from the Celestial Sect.


    He calmly said, "No need to thank me. I wanted to take the beast cores from the spirit beasts, so I took action. Moreover, even without my arrow, with this brother''s abilities, your junior sister should be fine."


    Being stared at by Lin Qi, the daoist-robed young man instantly let out a hollow laugh.


    He frowned and asked, "The two of you are from an immortal clan, why would you appear in this Spirit Transformation Mountain? From what I know, even the closest immortal sect, the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, is a million miles away. "


    "How did you know we were from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery? We came here using the flight talisman, and lost our spiritual energy when we got here. That''s why we landed on this mountain. Then, this scene appeared in front of us. We came here ¡­"


    The young woman had a very cute appearance and a very innocent heart. Hearing Lin Qi''s words, her beautiful face revealed a very excited expression, and she straightforwardly said everything.


    However, before she could say anything, she was interrupted by the daoist-robed young man. He then cupped his hands politely and said, "We''re going to the Dancing Sky Sect to settle some matters."


    The identity of the masked youth was unknown, and Ziying didn''t know of the dangers of the human heart. He always told the truth when meeting others, and this wasn''t a good habit.


    "The Sky Sect?" Lin Xing''s heart tightened.


    Suddenly, he raised his head, including the two young men and women, and looked up at the sky.


    Then, the faces of the three of them changed, and they were filled with shock.


    The visual impact was too terrifying.


    Beneath the dome, four hundred-meter-tall giants were walking in the air. On their shoulders, they were carrying a thousand-meter-long black coffin. They radiated an incomparably ancient aura, as if they had come from the ancient times.


    The surface of the huge coffin was engraved with strange beast patterns, which had an inexplicable, fierce, and cold, yet heavy, aura. It made people shudder in fear.


    The four giants were walking towards the territory of the Skypiercing Sky Sect.


    "Nine Yin Coffin, so the legends are all true."


    While the daoist-robed young man was still in shock, he muttered to himself in an inaudible voice.


    Even after the four of them had carried the coffin for a long time, the three of them were still in a daze.


    "Fellow Daoist, the two of us have important matters to attend to, so we won''t be accompanying you. If fate wills it, we''ll meet again."


    After Lin Xing politely nodded his head, the daoist-robed young man quickly rushed toward the Sky Sect.


    As soon as they left, Lin Xing retracted his trembling heart and also stepped onto the same piece of land.

 C79

    Because of the matter with the Great Tomb Slaughter, Black Wind Mountain was in chaos. The Giant Spirit Sect was furious and issued an iron order. Anyone, regardless of their status, would be killed without question.


    However, the capital city of the Green Silver Country had not been affected at all, because this was the territory of the Sky Sect after all. The Giant Spirit Sect had broken with the Yin Master Sect and did not want to provoke another powerful enemy, so they did not dare to be too domineering.


    Compared to before, the capital city was bustling with activity, bustling with activity as people came and went. There were many powerful experts from large clans that came to observe the presence of the absolute body. It was hard to tell if they had any other intentions.


    When the Giant Spirit Sect brought the Nine Yin Coffin over, it caused another wave of commotion. At the same time, a small rumor spread out that the seal was about to be unsealed and that the coffin was used to nourish the Great Tomb Slaughterer''s body.


    Five hundred kilometers away from Black Wind Mountain, within the desolate wilderness, it seemed particularly quiet. On the valley path, the leaves fell like rain as they passed through layers of dense forest. There were a lot of people moving around here.


    Because of the Giant Spirit Sect''s order to hunt them down, the group of Dark Dwellers scattered in all directions. This was a hiding spot for over a hundred people.


    At this moment, a young man walked in with a masked man. He immediately attracted a large amount of unfriendly gazes.


    "Li Xing, who is this person?" A tall and sturdy man walked over. His face was repulsive, and his face was full of beard. He sized up the masked man in front of him with a malicious expression.


    The youth called Li Xing could not help but shudder in fear as he whispered, "Lord Touch Ghost, this is also a Dark Dweller that is being chased down by the Giant Spirit Sect. I saw that he is also in the Dao Division Realm, so I brought him here on my own initiative since we are lacking manpower."


    "The Dao Seeking stage?" The brawny man called Touch Ghost emitted the aura of a peak Dao Realm cultivator, silently suppressing the masked man.


    The masked man didn''t resist, but his expression was calm as he remained silent.


    Detecting the thick nether energy around his body, Ji Hao lowered his guard at the same time and frowned, "Take off your mask, I will see your true appearance."


    When the masked man heard this, he didn''t do anything. It was as if he didn''t hear it. Immediately, Touch Ghost''s gaze turned cold and he stretched out his hand to personally remove the mask.


    "Ahh, he was born to be a mute. In the past, his face was completely unrecognizable after being burned in a great fire. That''s truly miserable. I''m afraid that if I take it off, it will frighten the adults." Li Xing hurriedly came out to stop her and said with a sincere expression.


    In reality, he hadn''t even seen the masked man''s true appearance. At that time, he was being chased by the experts from the Giant Spirit Sect. In the final moment, the masked man had appeared and saved him. His powerful fighting strength completely stunned him. He approached the masked man to fawn over him, but the masked man remained silent, as if he was a fool. His eyes were dull as well. Then, he brought the masked man here, as if he was accompanied by a bodyguard.


    "Scared me? "Heh!" He had killed countless people, what kind of scene had he not seen before? Then, he changed the topic and seemed to have lost interest. He waved his hand and said: "Forget it, forget it. There''s no need to pick it."


    Then, he turned around and walked back to his original place, and began sharpening the blade with the group of Dark Dwellers.


    The masked man followed Li Xing to a secluded area and sat down. However, what no one noticed was that a thick killing intent flashed through the depths of his eyes, causing people to tremble in fear.


    "Be careful, the Dark Dwellers here are not kind people. All of them are ruthless characters that came out of the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood. Stay by my side and I will bring you back." Li Xing''s voice was so low that it could not be heard, but it was filled with satisfaction and satisfaction.


    With such a powerful yet foolish bodyguard by his side, his heart was bursting with laughter. He had really picked up a treasure.


    On the surface, he still pretended to be a fool. Not to mention that he pretended to be very similar, even his eyes were very blank and glazed, as if he was a child with a low IQ.


    Seeing this, Li Xing couldn''t stop smiling.


    In the dead of night, everyone fell asleep. However, because the Giant Spirit Sect had been hunting them for so long, they had to take turns to guard the area. Thus, this unfortunate assignment was naturally given to Lin Xing without any hesitation.


    At that time, the person who touched the ghost did not agree. Seeing how foolish he was, he was worried that he did not have good eyesight. However, other than Lin Xing, no one was willing to do this job, so he could only give up in the end.


    That night, in the wilderness within the forest, sounds of snoring could be heard like thunder. Lin Xing sat cross-legged on a huge rock, turning his head to scan the group of sleeping Dark Dwellers. The murderous intent in his heart surged without limit.


    After pondering for a long time, he finally managed to suppress the crowd. There were over a hundred people here, and he did not have three heads and six arms, so it was impossible for him to kill all of them.


    He withdrew his ice-cold gaze, and turned his head back again. At this moment, he discovered a black shadow passing by in front of him.


    The forest was dark, and Lin Xing could not reveal his identity. He did not use the Void Burst or the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern and instead activated his nether energy to charge towards that blurry figure.


    As soon as they made contact, the two of them started battling. The figure''s cultivation base was at least at the peak of the Dao realm, and his moves were extremely fierce, but they flowed like the clouds and flowed like the flowing water.


    No one could do anything to stop the two attacks. The surrounding ancient trees trembled, streams of green nether energy arced through the air like lightning.


    "Stop."


    Suddenly, a berating voice came from behind him. It came from the mouth of the ghost. A large area of fire lit up, and the shocking sound of fighting woke them up.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows and quickly retreated, falling back in front of the Tentacle Ghost.


    "Impudent, do you know who she is? If I didn''t stop you in time, your little life might have been lost. "


    Unexpectedly, the ghost-touching scream was directed at Lin Xing. His eyes were narrowed, and he appeared very angry.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth twitched as he looked towards the figure. This was a woman of about twenty years of age with her long hair tied behind her head. She wore a snow-white robe and had a beautiful face.


    "Humph, listen carefully. She is our senior apprentice Cloud Fox and an inner disciple of the Yin Master School. I already told you that you can''t stay up late without any eyesight. If you anger her, then I will kill you." Touch the Ghost in front of Cloudy Fox, and sternly berated Lin Xing.

 C80

    Touch Ghost and Yun Hu were both at the peak of the Dao Division, but their tones were filled with respect and they even called her senior apprentice. There was no helping it, Yun Hu''s status was there and he was an inner disciple of the Yin Master School.


    Other than that, anyone else who could become an inner disciple of the Yin Master Sect would have great potential, and their future achievements would be limitless. As for Li Xing, he was also a Yin Master School disciple. However, he was only an outer sect disciple.


    Moreover, the Yin Master School was the holy land for all the other underworld people nearby, and was their spiritual support. It was natural for them to respect an inner disciple.


    "Lord Touch Ghost, he''s new and doesn''t know the rules. He has also never seen Senior Cloud Fox before, so let''s just forget about it this time." Li Xing quickly pulled Lin Xing to the side and said while nodding and bowing.


    "Hmph, who doesn''t know that our Senior Sister Cloudy Fox is extremely beautiful. Although he is dumb, he is not blind. How can he make a move like this?" On the surface, Touch Ghost was scolding Lin Qi, but anyone could hear the flattery in his words.


    At the same time, everyone''s eyes began to shine. She was just too beautiful, with a graceful figure that caused nosebleeds, and caused everyone''s hearts to surge with excitement, lust, and random thoughts. However, this kind of thought only lasted for a short while before it was suppressed by them.


    Yun Hu was a follower of Yun Chi, then who was he? He was the chief disciple of the Yin Master School, one with unlimited potential and a high position. Furthermore, he was ruthless and had a cultivation base at the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    "Night, night." Li Xing once again hurried out to smooth things over and dryly laughed twice.


    "He was obviously blind. How could Senior Sister Yunhu''s beauty be hidden by the dark night?" Another person shouted.


    "Don''t blame him, I''m fine."


    The protagonist Cloudy Fox finally spoke. He raised his hand to suppress the flurry of fawning. Then, he gave Lin Xing a coquettish look that immediately captivated the hearts of the crowd.


    However, Lin Xing acted as if he did not see anything. His eyes were glazed as he stared ahead, without a single ripple appearing.


    It was her first time seeing someone who could remain calm in front of her. Moreover, the man in the mask in front of her was very strong, so even though they had only exchanged blows for a short time, she was able to clearly feel his strong nether energy and formidable techniques.


    "Senior apprentice-sister Cloudy Fox, don''t be offended, he''s a fool." Li Xing smiled.


    "Oh." Soon after, Yun Hu retracted his gaze and no longer paid any attention to it.


    Then he said to everyone, "The Giant Spirit Sect has gone too far. Everyone has been living a life of hiding and hiding, and they''ve suffered greatly. I hereby vow that if the Giant Spirit Sect dares to treat us like this, we will definitely make them pay the price."


    "Senior apprentice-sister Cloudy Fox, tell us what to do. Everyone is waiting for your order."


    "That''s right. If we don''t teach them a lesson, they might think that people from our sect are easy to bully."


    The entire audience was in an uproar as they spoke passionately. Their sect did not have any good intentions, especially people like them who were not part of any sect. They were all extremely vicious and could not take this lying down.


    During this period of time, he had been gathering up his men and accumulating his strength. It could be said that he was sharpening his blade and waiting for the order to be given. He wanted to let the Giant Spirit Sect know that bullying their sect would not end well.


    Cloud Fox took a good look at everyone''s expressions, and revealed a satisfied expression, and said: "I am here because of Senior Brother Feng Yun Chi''s order to lead you back. This time, the Giant Spirit Sect has sent out all of their experts to occupy Black Wind Mountain and the surrounding hundred of miles. A large number of strong people with absolute bodies are gathered there, and regardless of our strength or our manpower, if we directly rush over, we will undoubtedly be courting death. "


    At this point, Yun Hu paused for a moment. It was obvious that he hadn''t finished speaking. Everyone lightly nodded and didn''t say anything, quietly waiting for the next part.


    Yun Hu suddenly said with overflowing killing intent, "And I have received the latest news, because we do not have enough manpower, the Giant Spirit Sect has also recruited a group of strong warriors from their territory, to ensure that we will be able to kill them all once we return to the Tomb. They will all be led by the Giant Spirit Sect disciples. Thus, senior brother Yun Chi''s intention was to intercept them.


    Hearing this, everyone was shaken. They didn''t expect the Giant Spirit Sect to send out all of their experts. This still wasn''t enough, and they wanted to recruit more Death Soldiers. This was just too terrifying. They didn''t know how important the Great Tomb Slaughter was to the Giant Spirit Sect!


    "Senior sister Cloudfox, may I ask, what cultivation level are those Death Soldiers at?" Someone asked hesitantly.


    "All of them are in the realm of Dao Division. There are hundreds of people in each path, roughly three thousand in total." Cloudfox said.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Even the expression on Lin Qi''s face, which was hidden behind the mask, had completely changed.


    If the Deities Templar didn''t intervene, then this force would be enough to sweep away the entire territory of the Skypiercing Sect.


    The people from the Giant Spirit Sect had truly gone mad. They had clearly taken out all of their resources, and no matter the cost, they had to welcome them back to the Tomb.


    Yun Hu said: "The Giant Spirit Sect knows that they will not be able to easily save Big Tomb Slaughter, which is why they have made their preparations early, using this kind of suicidal method to inflict heavy injuries on our sect. I can also divulge to everyone a piece of information, all sects do not wish to see a Great Honored Warrior revived, if not, the structure will be broken and the entire Giant Spirit Sect will become the strongest, no one is willing to see this kind of situation, other than us, the Yin Sect, there will be other strong people acting from behind the scenes."


    Once these words left his mouth, the entire crowd was once again in an uproar. However, this time, their expressions were no longer one of fear, but one of pleasant surprise.


    "It''s getting more and more lively. Senior sister Cloudfox, we''ll listen to you. We''ll do whatever you say." Touch of the Ghost laughed loudly and spoke in an unrestrained manner. He waved his large fist, and the space around it trembled.


    "That''s right, Senior-apprentice Sister Cloud Fox, give the order."


    The crowd was in a frenzy, wishing they could go back and kill them right now.


    "Yes." Yun Hu nodded his head in satisfaction as he smiled and said, "We have over a hundred people, and most of them are also at the Dao Division. I will lead you to ambush one of the Giant Spirit Sect warriors, and with our strength, even if we can''t kill them all, it will make them panic and completely collapse. "Our sect head has already given the order that anyone willing to move with me, regardless of victory or defeat, should all be promoted to become our sect''s inner disciples."


    "Alright, let''s do it."


    Everyone was so happy that their faces were filled with zeal. This was a huge temptation. As long as they could become disciples of the Yin Master School, not to mention the inner disciples. That was to rise to the heavens with a single step, and the resources for cultivation would be endless. Even someone like him, who had been stuck at the peak of the Dao Reaching Realm for many years, would have the possibility to break through once again.


    Lin Xing caught the hint of hidden cunning in Cloudy Fox''s eyes and could not help but sneer in his heart. Letting this group of people directly collide with over a hundred of the Dao Seeking Deathsworn was akin to striking a stone with an egg.


    "Stay by my side. If you follow me, I won''t treat you unfairly. When you enter our Yin Master School, we''ll make a blood alliance and form a bond of brotherhood." Li Xing''s eyes shone with a golden light as he spoke to Lin Qi with an excited expression.

 C81

    The mountain valleys were hidden, the twilight was deep, and the setting sun was blood-red.


    The orderly sound of footsteps resounded through the mountain forest, like a golden spear or iron horse, shaking the wilderness.


    He approached them step by step, and walked through the forest in the distance. His attire was clearly visible.


    The line consisted of over a hundred people, each of which was four to five meters tall, with muscles that expanded like horned dragons. They were armored and armed to the teeth, and their eyes were filled with an incomparable emptiness, as if they were cold war machines.


    The leader was a majestic middle-aged man. He had a dignified appearance as he sat atop a spirit beast with a majestic and stern expression.


    That spirit beast was shaped like a leopard, its body was covered in patterns, and it was short and sharp. It exuded an indescribable aura of violence. The surrounding birds and beasts couldn''t help but tremble in fear.


    As he reached this point, the stern middle-aged man suddenly raised his hand, and hundreds of people behind him stopped in unison.


    His face was solemn as he surveyed the scenery around him with narrowed eyes. His gaze was sharp as a knife. Suddenly, a group of black shadows gradually grew larger in his eyes.


    "Let''s go to war."


    With an angry shout, hundreds of Death Soldiers rushed out from behind him and surrounded him, ready to fight against the enemy.


    "Kill!"


    A group of over a hundred Dark Dwellers, led by Touch Ghost, flew down from the mountain peak. They surged with an enormous wave of nether energy.


    The death warrior of the Giant Spirit Sect didn''t want to be outdone, so he licked his lips and revealed a bloodthirsty and excited expression.


    "Kill them all!" With another order from the strict middle-aged man, the spirit beasts sat down and roared angrily.


    Both sides were fearless, fighting head on with their weapons everywhere. Both sides were immersed in bloody battles, with injuries and deaths on both sides.


    The Death Soldiers of the Giant Spirit Sect had extremely strong bodies. Ordinary weapons could not cut through them, and they were both incomparably tall. With a single punch, their might was like thunder, and the two Dao Breaking Underworld cultivators were instantly killed.


    Not long after the fight began, the group of Dark Dwellers was dumbfounded. These Death Soldiers didn''t fear death at all, and the group of Death Soldiers weren''t afraid at all. Otherwise, how could they be called Death Soldiers?


    It was a strategy of mutual destruction. In an instant, their motley group of people were defeated and scattered in all directions.


    Even Lin Xing was scared witless. This was simply a group of perverts. There was not even a shred of fear in their eyes. Furthermore, their skin and flesh were so thick that they could not even be hit.


    Under the circumstance of hiding his strength, it would be extremely difficult for Lin Xing to kill a Death Soldier, let alone the other weaker Nether Masters. Large chunks of flesh and blood flew in all directions.


    To put it bluntly, the Giant Spirit Sect was the reinforcements that he had brought over. Even if he could kill one or two Death Soldiers, he wouldn''t kill them. At most, he would just injure them and leave them to deal with the enemies that they had in common.


    "Retreat, these are a bunch of madmen."


    The group of Dark Dwellers were completely annihilated as they scattered in all directions, their expressions full of fear.


    All of these Death Soldiers were the most elite warriors of the countries under the command of the Giant Spirit Sect, and they all had military experience, and their hands were covered in blood no less than these Dark Dwellers. When they heard about the Sovereign''s conscription this time, they didn''t hesitate and didn''t even frown.


    The Giant Spirit Sect was the belief of the absolute body, and since this matter concerned the prosperity of the sect, they were even more fearless.


    "Stop the chase."


    The strict middle-aged man simply did not care about this motley group of people.


    However, Cloudy Fox, who was watching the fight from the distant mountain peak, didn''t think the same way. From the hair on the back of the Jade Hand''s head, two strands of hair suddenly shot out.


    "Whoever dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"


    Cloudy Fox''s eyes were as cold as ice. Her pretty face turned cold as she issued an unquestionable order.


    Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Their faces were ashen as they took a deep breath, gritted their teeth, and shouted, "Underworld Sect brothers, follow me back!"


    He took the lead in turning around and dashing towards the death warrior of the Giant Spirit Sect. Soon after, the rest of them followed behind him, looking as if they did not care about death.


    Although they were already afraid of the Giant Spirit Sect, they were more afraid of the Yin sect''s methods. From Yun Hu''s actions, it was clear that they were using him as a tool, but they didn''t dare to disobey him. Otherwise, even if he didn''t die, he wouldn''t be able to escape from them.


    Li Xing was also trembling with fear. His face was bloodless as he grabbed onto Lin Qi''s arm, gesturing for him to protect him.


    Ah ¡­


    Miserable screams rang out incessantly from the mouths of those who had died. They truly regretted it. Only now did they know just how terrifying this group of death warriors were.


    Cold and fearless, like a war machine.


    The stern middle-aged man who was sitting on top of the spirit beast suddenly locked his gaze onto Cloudy Fox. With a whoosh, he flew towards Cloudy Fox, and at the same time, spread out his power that was unique to the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    Cloudfox''s beautiful face immediately paled. He wanted to dodge, but it was already too late. He was too fast, and a single fist from him sent him flying into the distant mountain forest.


    The middle-aged man''s feet landed on the ground, and it was as if the sky had collapsed and the earth caved in. The giant trees trembled, and the entire forest began to shake violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.


    He was incomparably powerful. Although he did not have a large physique, his physique was incomparably valiant. He was comparable to a divine beast, and nothing could stop him.


    He took one earth-shattering step at a time, walking straight towards the place where the Cloudy Fox had fallen. He didn''t plan on letting her go just like that.


    "Quick, save Cloudy Fox."


    Someone had noticed this scene from the battle and immediately cried out in alarm. Afterwards, everyone''s minds were filled with shock. They never would have thought that this unassuming middle-aged man would be so powerful that even Yun Hu was not a match for him.


    The remaining Dark Dwellers all retreated, planning to save Cloudy Fox before fleeing for their lives.


    Yun Hu was an inner disciple of the Yin Master School, so he couldn''t die here. Otherwise, all of them would be endlessly hunted down by the Yin Master Sect.


    "Chi!"


    The Cloud Fox rose up from the forest and stood in the air for a moment, emitting strands of fine hair. Wherever it went, ancient trees would be snapped, and leaves would dance in the air, emitting an ear-piercing screech.


    Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth as her face turned pale. The punch from the strict middle-aged man had caused her quite a bit of harm. Her snow-white clothes were covered in dust, making her look very pathetic.


    The middle-aged man grabbed the hair that was shooting at him. He coldly snorted and casually threw it back towards the cloud fox. Compared to the cloud fox, he was much stronger and faster.


    Cloudy Fox was so scared that his mouth was wide open and his face was pale. He quickly fell down to the ground to avoid the attack.

 C82

    CHI *


    Strands of hair in the hands of the strict middle-aged man turned into a miracle as he erupted with astonishing power. He waved his sleeve and all of them shot towards Cloudy Fox.


    The news of the Cloud Fox''s true body flew like the wind. Her stockings were full of dust, and her face was drained of color from fright. It was a deathly pale face.


    A strand of hair passed through her hair that was coiled around her head. Immediately, her long hair fell down and scattered. Following that, another strand of hair penetrated through her chest. After that, without losing any strength, it continued to move forward until it disappeared.


    Cloud Fox''s body fell vertically into the grass.


    "Stop him." The group of people surrounded the middle-aged man and attacked him.


    At the same time, the ghost personally brought the group of people to where the Cloudy Fox had fallen.


    Ah ¡­


    All of the Netherezim who were besieging the middle-aged man flew out. A large amount of flesh and blood flew out. Some of their heads were half a meter deep in the ground while others hit the hard stones. Their brains were splattered all over the place.


    As for that middle-aged man, he seemed completely at ease and unharmed, yet he was expressionless, and an icy cold sheen suffused his eyes.


    She was worried that he did not have good eyesight, so she went to find the Heaven Smiting Stage powerhouse and killed him too. When she got close enough to where Cloudy Fox was landing, she saw that she was lying on the grass, her face pale and her breathing sluggish, with blood flowing out of her chest and abdomen.


    "Withdraw."


    The ghost picked her up and led the remaining ten or so people to escape in one direction. In a blink of an eye, they were all submerged in the sea of trees.


    Along the way, Touch Ghost took out a black pill that emitted a fishy smell from his waist and fed it to Cloudy Fox.


    The smell of the pill assaulted the noses, and as soon as he took it out, it caused everyone to vomit. Lin Qi was no exception, he felt as if he was rubbed down from the ashes of a ghost.


    If Cloudy Fox were to know that Touch Ghost had given this pill to her to consume, she would probably go into a frenzy.


    The smell of the pill was not good, but it had a miraculous effect. Yun Hu stopped the blood from flowing out of his chest and his breathing started to steady. His face gradually turned rosy.


    "What do you guys know? I got this pill by chance. It''s called the Flame Conversion Pill. It is used to treat internal and external injuries." Touch Ghost looked at the expressions of those people and said indignantly.


    Everyone rolled their eyes.


    In order to avoid being chased by the Giant Spirit Sect, they ran for a long distance before stopping. Their heads were covered in sweat and they were panting heavily.


    Lin Xing appeared to be the most indifferent as he sat cross-legged on the ground, resting. Li Xing lazily leaned against him. Because he was too tired, he had a drowsy look on his face.


    "Touch a ghost. Are you tired from carrying it? It should be my turn to carry it for a while."


    Touch Ghost sat on a rock and hugged Cloudy Fox, not willing to let go. He stared at the beauty in his arms, his eyes obscene, his heart burning with anger. If not for the presence of someone else, he would have taken care of her on the spot.


    "That''s right, touching ghosts makes you sweat profusely. It''s time to rest and quickly switch places with us."


    The remaining 10 or so people who had escaped from death all gathered around with indignant expressions. Looking at the beautiful Cloudy Fox, they all wanted to kiss. Their gazes were intoxicated, and they were slightly dazed.


    Then, the look on that idiot''s face turned into fanaticism as he desperately squeezed forward.


    "That won''t do. Senior sister Cloudy Fox is injured and cannot be moved easily. As long as she can lie comfortably in my arms, I won''t hesitate to die of exhaustion." Touch the Ghost said righteously.


    "That''s precisely the reason. Even if we die, we die first. Quickly hand the Cloud Fox over to me."


    Li Xing was no longer listless. He suddenly jumped up from the ground. He did not feel the least bit tired. His whole body was brimming with vigor, and he was eager to give it a try.


    There was a constant clamor at the scene, and the fight was so intense that everyone''s faces and ears were flushed red. They were just about to start a fight. Then, everyone looked at each other and laughed obscenely.


    "How about we take turns serving Senior Yun Hu ¡­" Someone said with a lewd smile.


    "Pa ¡­"


    Before that person could finish his sentence, a slap sounded out and that person was stunned.


    The man with the slap said, "I have practiced the Duo Cultivation Technique since I was young and have never looked at anyone else. The reason I have accumulated so much strength over the years is just so that I can show my skills today. We are clearly treating Senior Sister Yun Hu''s injuries. When she gets better, she will definitely thank us a thousand times. "


    "Yes, what you said makes sense." The person who was slapped first blanked out for a moment before smiling awkwardly.


    The others looked at him with disdain. They had never seen such a shameless person before.


    "I''ll go first."


    Since everyone agreed, there was nothing left to say. Touch of the Ghost could no longer suppress the restlessness in his heart. He threw his head back and roared excitedly, then placed his pig hand on the Cloud Fox''s chest and ripped off its clothes, revealing its snow-white skin.


    Puff ¡­


    However, just at this moment, a person spat out a large amount of blood, which splattered on Touch Ghost, Cloud Fox, and four or five other people.


    This action immediately made them feel as if they were facing a great enemy. They thought that the people from the Giant Spirit Sect had come chasing after them.


    A blade shining with black light appeared on the chest of the man. Someone had stabbed into his back, accompanied by a deathly aura that instantly destroyed his life force and caused him to lose his life in an instant.


    "Are you crazy?"


    Everyone''s gaze turned to the person behind him. They saw a masked young man holding a blade in his hand. When no one was looking, he had killed that person with a single slash.


    Seeing that it was Lin Xing who had done it, Li Xing instantly cried out in fright with a face full of disbelief.


    "You want her, right? "Rest assured, I will make her go to hell to accompany you guys."


    Lin Qi took out his blade and the man fell onto the ground with a hoarse voice.


    "You''re not dumb?" Li Xing had an expression of astonishment.


    Lin Qi slowly nodded his head. His eyes were no longer empty, but filled with an eerie feeling instead. Blood dripped from the edge of the blade as he held the blade. His killing intent was extremely decisive, and his grip was not the slightest bit softer.


    Since he had a blood feud with people from the Ghost sect, he would not be soft-hearted.


    "Fuck, Li Xing, can''t you see the situation clearly? He''s not one of us at all, he''s our enemy, and he''s deliberately hiding his identity from us. " Touch Ghost placed the Cloud Fox''s body on the rock, turned his head a few times, and walked over.


    "Very smart." Lin Qi let out a cold laugh.


    "Hmph, but you are very stupid. If your identity is revealed right now, do you think you can kill ten of us?" "Since you''re so anxious to die, I''ll grant your wish."


    Touch Ghost, the other eight Dark Dwellers, and Li Xing all surrounded him with cold smiles on their faces. If the ten Dao Seeking experts couldn''t kill a single person, they could run into a wall. Only Li Xing looked as if he was grieving for them.


    These were all experts who had fought their way out of the dead under the hands of the Giant Spirit Sect warriors. Their strength was undoubtedly outstanding among the hundred or so people, and there were even some peak Dao Seeking experts like Touch Ghost.


    Ten streams of turbulent nether energy pressed down on Lin Qi, causing him to not dare to neglect it in the slightest.

 C83

    "Kill!"


    The ghost let out a furious roar and took the initiative to launch an attack, throwing out a large amount of nether energy towards Lin Qi.


    The moment he made his move, the others, including Li Xing, also launched a fierce attack towards Lin Xing.


    Suddenly, the black fog spread out, carrying along with it a deathly aura. The howls of the ghosts echoed out in all directions, and all the attacks were directed towards Lin Xing.


    The blade in his hand turned, instead of retreating, he slashed towards the side, and then unleashed three more fierce attacks. One of his arms was cut open, and instantly, black smoke emerged from his entire body, his body quickly shriveled up like grass, and when his life force was completely gone, he seemed to have aged for a few decades.


    He didn''t even have time to cry out before he was instantly killed.


    "Everyone be careful, his knife is highly toxic." The ghost let out a cry of alarm.


    He didn''t need to remind them; they weren''t blind at all. That person''s death was still echoing in front of their eyes, causing them to tremble with fear. Their relaxed expressions were replaced with solemnity.


    One person had died, and the remaining nine people all released a large amount of black fog which engulfed Lin Qi. The black fog was also poisonous, and one could vaguely see evil spirits roaring within it.


    CHI *


    However, just as the black mist was about to engulf Lin Qi, a black lamp appeared in front of him. It emitted a soft white light. The moment the light touched the black mist, it let out a scream of fear and scattered away.


    Lin Qi let out a cold snort, and a black lamp emerged from his left palm. The white light was exceptionally bright, dispersing the black fog and then disappearing into thin air.


    "Celestial Arts ¡­"


    The nine of them were incomparably shocked, and their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost. Underworld energy and immortal energy being cultivated together in one person''s body was something they had never heard of before.


    As everyone knew, celestial spiritual energy was the natural enemy of nether energy. It was similar to fire and water. If one wanted to fuse these two types of energy into a person''s body, it was equivalent to the boundary between water and fire.


    Their faces were filled with shock and disbelief. However, something that was unbelievable to them had actually appeared before their eyes.


    "This kid is very strange, finish him quickly." Touch Ghost moved forward with his mouth wide open, gritted his teeth and said.


    The others were also in a daze. Hearing this, it was as if they had just awoken from a dream. Lin Xing seized the opportunity and beheaded two people with a single slash. Blood splattered three feet into the air like a fountain.


    The remaining people were even more terrified. Some of them even felt their legs go soft and had thoughts of escaping.


    However, they quickly and fiercely suppressed that thought. Like they said before, ten people wouldn''t be able to kill a single person. They could really run into a wall and feel completely unreconciled.


    Lin Qi laughed coldly as he launched a counterattack, turning passivity into initiative. Death God Power was scattered everywhere like fine powder, and another person was hit by the attack. He immediately let out a devastating cry.


    "God Power! How is this possible? He actually cultivates three different powers at the same time!" Everyone was so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. This was too inconceivable.


    "Ah ¡­"


    The person that was struck by the Death God Power was a peak Dao splitting Nether Realm cultivator. His screams immediately stopped as Lin Xing''s saber split his body into two halves. His bloody intestines flowed all over the ground, emitting a thick stench of blood.


    "Quick, run."


    He was truly afraid. Then, without caring about anything else, he took the initiative to run.


    When the remaining people saw his actions, they immediately split up and ran away. Their faces were filled with fear, wishing that their parents could grow more legs and run as fast as they could.


    It was only at this moment that they finally realized that Lin Xing was an existence that they could not afford to provoke. His entire body was filled with a strange aura.


    There was only one person who did not escape, sitting paralyzed on the ground. His face was pale, and he was scared out of his wits. He was Li Xing, and he stared blankly at the strange but hideous mask that Lin Xing wore.


    Lin Qi withdrew his blade and did not give chase. His eyes became more and more cold. He turned around and took out the Black God Bow and the black iron arrows from the Soul Cave.


    Zhang Gong pulled the arrow, and it instantly took the shape of a full moon, shooting towards the ghost first.


    Whoosh ¡­


    The power of the Black God Bow was astonishing. The arrow shot out with a speed faster than lightning. It pierced through the trees, causing Li Xing to be even more terrified.


    "You ¡­"


    Without a doubt, that arrow had passed through the ghost''s throat, causing blood to splatter. Moreover, it did not stop as it continued to shoot forward, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye. The ghost gripped its neck with both hands and turned around to look at Lin Qi with despair and resentment. It didn''t even struggle for two seconds before collapsing onto the ground.


    Lin Xing''s face was expressionless. His eyes were like daggers as he took out a Xuan Iron Arrow from his soul hole and shot it at another Dark Dweller who was running for his life.


    Whoosh.


    Whoosh.


    After firing four arrows consecutively, all the escaping Nether Masters were killed without exception. The arrow had pierced through their throats and died very straightforwardly, with almost no pain.


    Withdrawing the Black God Bow, he turned and looked at Li Xing who was slumped on the ground, the Death God power was released from his fingertips.


    However, he couldn''t bear it anymore. After pondering for a long time, his heart softened. He took back his Death God Power and coldly said to Li Xing, "Before I go back on my word, go as far as possible."


    "Yes, yes ¡­"


    Li Xing acted as if he had received amnesty, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to Lin Qi with a look of gratitude.


    "Hurry up and leave." Lin Xing impatiently said in a deep voice.


    Li Xing acted as if he was granted amnesty and quickly walked into the mountains. He didn''t even dare to look back.


    After he left for a long time, Lin Xing finally sighed deeply. He had been soft-hearted, but had the Netherworld Sect ever treated the General''s Estate with the slightest bit of kindness? If this brat hadn''t appeared at the last moment, Gu Yuan and A Shan would have already died.


    Then, he shook his head with a bitter smile and withdrew his gaze. His gaze fell upon Cloudy Fox who was sleeping on the rock. His gaze turned cold once again.


    In his heart, he wouldn''t have any thoughts of showing mercy to the fairer sex. Since he was the enemy, he didn''t mind ruthlessly destroying the flower.


    Not to mention that Yun Hu''s heart was like a snake and scorpion. Killing her could be considered acting on behalf of the heavens.


    With this thought in mind, Lin Qi walked over step by step.


    However, at this moment, Cloudy Fox''s eyelashes trembled, and in the next moment, he opened his bright eyes.


    His eyes were filled with confusion. He didn''t know what had happened, but the smell of blood assaulted his nostrils. He couldn''t help but frown.


    At the same time, a group of people rushed over from the distance. The one leading them was a woman, and Lin Xing recognized her. She was Quan Li, who had not appeared for a long time.


    As expected, Quan Li led a group of people and ran towards them.


    Lin Qi sighed helplessly. He withdrew his murderous intent and stopped in his tracks.

 C84

    Quan Li led a group of people over from the distant mountain forest. They rushed over like lightning and arrived in the blink of an eye.


    There were about twenty people, all young men and women. Some of them were even known to Lin Xing, and it was obvious that they were all disciples of the Skysplit Sect, and each of them had a cultivation base at the Dao Seeking stage.


    Quan Li''s clothes fluttered in the wind as he moved closer to the group. He scanned the surroundings together with the group of people and his gaze became strange.


    The strong stench of blood was particularly pungent. The scene was scattered with blood and meat. There were four or five corpses lying on the ground in the distance. All of them had their throats pierced by an arrow. It was a tragic sight.


    After that, their gazes were all fixed on the ghost mask wearing Lin Xing. Their eyes were filled with amazement and shock.


    Quan Li looked at him coldly with suspicion, then asked: "You killed all these people?"


    Lin Qi''s eyes became dull once again. He nodded his head, as if he understood the meaning behind his words, and continued to pretend to be mute.


    Hearing this, Quan Li and the group of disciples sucked in a breath of cold air. Shock even flashed across some of their faces.


    If they hadn''t sensed wrongly, the corpses that lay there were all split up into Nether Realm cultivators. However, this masked man had actually killed all of them by himself. It was simply shocking. They had never been able to do such a thing.


    At the same time, Cloudy Fox, who had already opened her eyes, stood up with difficulty. A hint of shock also appeared in the depths of her eyes. She stared at Lin Qi, her gaze like lightning, and asked, "Why did you kill them?"


    Her face was still very pale, and as she spoke, she could not help but cough a few times. Her expression was somewhat cold.


    When the others heard this, their eyes widened as they looked over.


    Lin Qi continued to pretend he was deaf and pointed his left index finger at Cloudy Fox''s chest. Only then did Cloudy Fox notice that the clothes in front of him were badly damaged, revealing a large area of snow-white skin.


    Even so, under the gaze of so many disciples, she didn''t feel the slightest bit of shame. Instead, she puffed out her chest, making the eyes of the male disciples shine with a golden light.


    The female disciples of the Skysplit Sect all let out low groans of disdain and turned their faces to the side.


    Cloudy Fox then shifted his gaze to the four corpses. After thinking for a while, he finally understood what had happened.


    The most reasonable explanation would be that Touch Ghost and the others had ill intentions towards her, but the masked man in front of her was too angry, so he killed them all one by one.


    Thinking of this, a proud smile appeared on her face as she said to Lin Qi, "I will remember your kindness for protecting me this time. As for my Netherworld Sect, I will repay you for that, so you will follow me in the future. When this matter is over, I will take you back to the sect and have my master take you in as his personal disciple."


    Lin Qi''s eyes were still glazed, like a wooden block. Hearing these words, he nodded his head, seeming to understand what was going on. Seeing this, Cloudy Fox couldn''t help but smile.


    At this time, Quan Li''s gaze shifted to Cloudy Fox''s face. He asked with expectation: "What''s the situation like?"


    "Not bad, it''s quite troublesome." Yun Hu pondered for a while and said these words.


    Hearing that, Quan Li revealed a serious expression. He then stuck out his tongue and said: "It''s all thanks to you guys this time. We lost so many Dao Realm cultivators."


    "It doesn''t matter. These people are not my Yin school''s disciples to begin with. Even if they die, it won''t be painful nor itchy. Besides, they died for our school. They are willing to do that, so there is no need to worry." Cloudy Fox smiled indifferently, looking all the more coquettish. Her hair fluttered in the wind, giving off an indescribable charm.


    The disciples couldn''t help but feel a chill in their hearts when they saw his nonchalant expression. There were more than a hundred Dao Breaking Stage underworld cultivators, and only the underworld sect would be able to do something so cold-blooded.


    When he heard this, Lin Qi finally understood that Yun Hu was using Touch Ghost and the rest as tools to test the strength of the Giant Spirit Sect Death Soldiers. It was similar to a cannon fodder; he would first make an alluring promise and then send them for an ambush.


    "Is there any way to deal with it?" Quan Li asked with a deep voice.


    "Yes, our sect is prepared." Cloudfox sneered.


    Quan Li nodded his head: "It''s for the best, my sect won''t make a move on the surface unless it''s a last resort. Our sect doesn''t want to cause too much trouble with the Giant Spirit Sect for now, all we have to do is to stop them from returning to the Tomb of Slaughter."


    "At least you know what I mean. It''s good that you know it. If the Giant Spirit Sect really did rescue him, then all the other sects in the world would have to bow down to them. This situation, I believe, is one that no ruler would want to see. "


    "Yes." Quan Li nodded solemnly, but couldn''t help but roll his eyes at Yun Hu.


    "I heard that the seal is about to be broken. We can''t wait to save Tomb, so we have to take action." Cloudy Fox stared at Quan Li and said.


    But unexpectedly, Quan Li flatly refused: "No, if the operation requires our sect''s higher ups'' instructions, if we rashly alert them, I''m afraid they will double their guard. Furthermore, in a situation where there are so many experts gathered, what does it matter to us? "


    Yun Hu chuckled, "Even so, don''t you see that the Giant Spirit Sect has been sending out a steady stream of people? They must have been prepared for this. How could they not understand what we''re thinking?!" We can take action in secret and cut off their death warriors and slowly remove their power bit by bit. This way, we can let the Giant Spirit Sect know that it''s easy to think of leaving the territory of the Skypiercing Sect, but difficult to leave. "


    "This is exactly what I want to say. This time, I came to find you because I followed my school''s elders group''s instructions to cooperate with you." Quan Li said.


    Yun Hu asked, "How many people did you send?"


    Quan Li spread out his five fingers, smiled, and did not speak.


    Cloudy Fox gave a knowing smile and said, "We''ll act five days later at the agreed location."


    He asked in surprise, "I heard that your Skypiercing Sect has been chasing and killing someone called Lin Qi the whole time without holding back at all. From the looks of it, you seem to be even more anxious than stopping the Giant Spirit Sect from rescuing Big Tomb Sage."


    Hearing his name being mentioned, Lin Qi''s heart couldn''t help but be slightly moved.


    "Yes. This person killed a disciple of the Ascending Sky Sect and already seriously provoked our sect''s dignity. If this person doesn''t die, then where will our sect''s face go to?" Quan Li said angrily.


    "Really?" Is there nothing else that I can''t tell you? " Yun Hu squinted his eyes, staring at the change in Quan Li''s expression.


    "Cloudy Fox, you have too many questions." Quan Li replied coldly.


    "Ha ha!" Yun Hu coldly smiled and no longer bothered with this matter.


    Then he turned to Lin Qi and said, "Follow me."


    Subsequently, the two of them headed towards the forest.

 C85

    A strange expression appeared on Quan Li''s pretty face as she watched Lin Qi''s leaving figure. She kept having the feeling that this figure looked somewhat familiar.


    "Do you think he looks like a person?" He turned to the group of disciples standing to the side, flabbergasted.


    As these words left his mouth, everyone turned to look at Lin Xing with bright and clear eyes. At this moment, they had turned into a deeper part of the forest, being submerged by a layer of green sea.


    "I don''t know him. Who does Senior Sister Quan think he looks like?" That group of people shook their heads in confusion.


    "Lin Xing." Quan Li bit his lips.


    "What?" Everyone was astonished. Some of them wanted to chase after him.


    However, Quan Li stopped him and said: "There''s no need to chase after him. Perhaps I was wrong. Right now, business is more important."


    In her heart, she was also bewildered, she only felt that it was similar. But as far as she knew, Lin Xing had never cultivated netherworld spiritual energy before, and that masked man''s nether spiritual energy was extremely strong. It was obviously not a day or two.


    Thinking of this, the possibility of him being Lin Qi was eliminated.


    Afterwards, he led the group of disciples away, running in the opposite direction of Cloud Fox. In the blink of an eye, they were engulfed by the green ocean.


    "My wounds have not healed yet, carry me on your back."


    After walking a short distance, Cloudy Fox turned around and glanced back. It was obvious that he was wary of Quan Li and the others. He finally stopped here and said lazily to Lin Xing.


    Lin Xin smiled wryly in his heart. Cloudy Fox had acted very domineeringly in front of Quan Li, but once he left, his face immediately turned pale. It could be seen that she was indeed severely injured.


    On the surface, Lin Xing feigned ignorance as he nodded his head, and then bent down in front of Cloudy Fox.


    Cloudy Fox wrapped his arms around his neck and leapt onto Lin Xing''s body.


    Afterwards, after receiving the directions from Cloudy Fox, Lin Xing proceeded forward with her on his back.


    Along the way, Lin Ming had once had the urge to kill. Cloudy Fox had been severely injured, and his internal organs were all injured. Especially that strict middle-aged man''s punch, it had almost caused her to lose her life.


    Now, it was as easy as flipping his palm to kill her.


    But after thinking twice, he dispersed the killing intent. Today, from the conversation between Yun Hu and Quan Li, he found out a lot of information, looking at Yun Hu''s attitude, he already completely trusted him. He wanted to use Yun Hu to find out more useful information.


    "You are so powerful, why have I never heard of your name, it is the ghost that has died under your hand. Although you are not a disciple of my Yin Master School, you are still a famous figure outside. If you can kill so many Dao Master Cultivators, you are probably not a nameless person." Cloudy Fox pressed his nose against Lin Xing''s back and sniffed his clothes.


    Lin Qi pretended to be in a daze as he shook his head, as if he didn''t understand what Yun Hu was saying.


    Cloudy Fox stretched out a hand and caressed his back, then said in an alluring voice, "Oh, so you were cultivating in the wilderness somewhere, right after being born?"


    This time, Lin Xing understood and slowly nodded his head.


    "Hehe, I just came out of the mountain, and I didn''t expect to meet such a genius like you. If I were to return to the sect, the elders of the sect would definitely be very happy, but speaking of this, I am very curious about your true appearance."


    With this final sentence, Cloudy Fox''s voice was instantly ice-cold. At some point, a jade hairpin had appeared in his hand, and he suddenly thrust it at Lin Xing''s neck.


    "Hmph."


    Lin Qi had been prepared for this, and had been on guard against her all along. He gave a muffled groan, and thunder rumbled through the air. Yun Hu''s arm was unconsciously numbed, and the jade hairpin left his hand, falling to the ground.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing grabbed her arm and swung his left arm backwards, sending her flying seven or eight meters away.


    Puff ¡­


    In reality, Lin Xing''s attack wasn''t too heavy, but the Cloudy Fox was already wounded. After being struck by the attack, it caused the old wounds to appear and it coughed out a mouthful of blood.


    He sat on the floor and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth as he smiled gently and said, "What are you doing? I just want to see your true face. Why are you being so fierce towards me? Don''t you know how to treat women with mercy?"

 C86

    Lin Qi sneered. Did they really think he was that easy to fool? His body flashed and arrived in front of Cloudy Fox. He then pinched her mouth and fished out a dark pill from his soul hole.


    Cloudy Fox had no way of resisting and allowed Lin Xing to bind him. The pill directly entered his stomach and turned into a strange force.


    "Ah ¡­" What did you give me to eat? "


    Just as the pill was swallowed, the Cloudy Fox''s skin underwent an obvious change. Wrinkles appeared on both of its arms, and its originally snow-white skin instantly aged up.


    She exclaimed in fear and touched her face subconsciously. When she felt her smooth and smooth face, she finally let out a sigh of relief. Fear and trepidation still flashed through her eyes.


    That pill had the ability to extinguish a person''s life force, causing them to instantly age, especially a young woman like Cloudy Fox. It was even more painful than killing her.


    "No, I beg you, quickly cure my poison. From now on, you are my master." Cloudy Fox could no longer remain calm. He was truly afraid. His face was filled with terror as he pleaded.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that he thought she was useful, Lin Xing would have long since crushed her. That dark pill was condensed from Lin Qi''s Death God Power, forcing Yun Hu to swallow it. Whether it lived or died was up to him.


    Lin Qi continued to pretend that he was deaf and mute, but his eyes were no longer dull and empty. Instead, they had become very lively. He stared at the Cloudy Fox, warning her without words.


    Cloudy Fox could not help but quiver in fear. He looked at him with a pleading and blurry gaze, and continuously begged for mercy. However, he remained unmoved, and his killing intent overflowed in all directions.


    In the next moment, he carried Cloudy Fox on his back. Cloudy Fox was a smart person, so he didn''t need to remind him. He continued to walk on the path he had pointed out earlier.


    Along the way, Cloudy Fox was honest and cried out at the same time. When he saw the old wrinkles on his arms, his mind couldn''t help but become cold and frightened. He no longer dared to play any tricks.


    Cloudy Fox continued to plead pitifully on the road. Even Lin Xing was annoyed by his pitiful appearance. He turned his head to look at her with a cold gaze and immediately shivered. He then shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.


    Although Cloudy Fox was not clear about Lin Qi''s identity, but with her intelligence, she was able to guess what he was thinking. In her heart, she felt an inexplicable sense of admiration for Lin Qi.


    She guessed that Lin Xing was a spy from the Giant Spirit Sect. Entering the tiger''s cave alone, his courage and insight could only be described as astonishing.


    Although fate was in Lin Qi''s hands, Cloudy Fox was naturally unwilling to easily lead him into a hidden stronghold of the Yin Master School. On the way, he had carried her on his back and wasted a large portion of the road.


    How could Lin Xing not know what she was thinking? He suddenly activated the Death God power in her body, and those old wrinkles immediately extended towards her body. Cloudy Fox was once again frightened and screamed.


    At daybreak, Lin Qi carried Cloudy Fox into a valley. Both sides of the valley were a thousand feet long, grand and steep. As far as the eye could see, not a single blade of grass grew, and the ground was littered with scattered boulders and boulders.


    At the front of the valley, there was a natural gourd. The inside of the gourd was covered by layers of rock so it could not be seen from the outside. Yun Hu pointed to the place and told him that it was the hiding place of the underworld.


    Lin Qi cautiously walked into the gourd and found that there was a cave in the gourd. There was a large black jungle growing inside, and each plant was surrounded by a thick aura of evil. The inside of the gourd was pitch-black, like a black hole.


    As Lin Qi stepped into the dark forest with Yun Hu on his back, a pair of dark green eyes lit up in the darkness. They were cold and lifeless, yet they exuded a cunning and savage aura, clearly something that no living person could possess.


    Furthermore, Lin Xing was certain that they were not spirit beasts. Although the spirit beasts'' gazes were vicious, they were tyrannical. The pairs of eyes in the forest clearly exuded a cunning aura, and they were dark and gloomy, like ghosts that were hibernating.


    A pair of large hands could be vaguely seen waving in the night sky. The dense eyes in the forest immediately hid again, becoming pitch-black and silent. Only three blurry figures could be seen walking out from the darkness.


    As they slowly walked over, they saw that the three of them were big and tall brawny men. Each of them was emitting a raging aura, and their eyes were as sinister as a poisonous snake''s.


    The person in the middle was relatively young, around twenty-seven to twenty-eight years old. His aura was especially tyrannical, and around his neck hung finger-sized mini skulls. There was a knife scar on his face, making him look slightly sinister.


    He first looked at Cloudy Fox, who was lying on Lin Xing''s back, and asked with furrowed brows, "Why did you suddenly come back? Is there anyone following them? "


    "Nope." Cloudy Fox shook his head gently. Annoyed and irritated appeared in the depths of his eyes, as if he really hated this strong man.


    After that, he patted Lin Qi''s shoulder, indicating for him to continue walking forward. Between the valleys on both sides of the road, there were many caves that were forcibly cut open. Some dim blue flames flickered in the wind.


    "Wait, who is he? This is a serious matter, how dare you bring an outsider here? If the news gets out, do you know how serious the situation is? " The brawny man roared in anger and stretched out his huge arm to block Lin Xing''s path.


    Lin Qi''s eyes glazed over, but he still stopped in his tracks. The cloud fox on his back said, "This time, I used over a hundred Dark Dwellers to test the death of the Giant Spirit Sect warriors. Everyone died, even I suffered heavy injuries, and it was all thanks to him bringing me back, what about it? I, a dignified inner disciple, don''t even have this kind of privilege? "


    Although Cloudy Fox knew that Lin Xing had other motives, she was more disgusted with the man in front of her. Moreover, her life and death depended entirely on Lin Xing, so she did not dare to play any tricks on him.


    Perhaps it was just a feint to show Lin Xing, but it was not impossible. Lin Xing was unable to figure it out for a while, but as long as Yun Hu could move his evil thoughts, he could guarantee that Yun Hu would die in front of him.


    "What?! Over a hundred Nether Realm experts have all died!"


    The brawny man and the two people beside him could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Their expressions were somewhat aghast.


    "Since those Death Soldiers have such terrifying battle prowess, then will we Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals be able to fight against them?" Someone muttered.


    Hearing this, Yun Hu''s face turned cold, and he immediately changed the topic, "This time, my injuries are very serious, and it''s all thanks to him bringing me back. When we return to the sect, you can help him speak a few nice words in front of the elders, with his strength, he can directly be promoted to an inner sect disciple."


    Hearing this, Lin Xing''s heart tightened. This Cloudy Fox obviously had something to say.


    Who knew that the three people all sneered and said: "Cloud Fox, did you eat the wrong medicine? What identity does he have? Where did he get the qualification to let us speak up for him? You are Yun Chi''s trusted aide, you did not ask him to help, and instead came to find us, you truly are stupid. "


    "That''s right, Cloudy Fox, if you can change your mind and follow our senior brother Tian Zong, not to mention helping him speak nicely in front of the elders, it might even be possible for you to be promoted to the position of the chief disciple." Someone beside the sturdy man sneered.

 C87

    Yun Hu was immediately deflated. Deep in his heart, he wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He wanted nothing more than to curse at this group of idiots.


    "Hmph, carry me into the cave." Yun Hu frowned and said to Lin Xing.


    This time, the Tian Zong trio no longer bothered with this matter and chose to let them through. Looking at their backs, Tian Zong spat and cursed at them.


    The cave that Lin Xing chose to enter did not have any facilities. It was empty, with a dark blue lamp wick burning in the innermost area. The light from the lamp was so small that it was almost indiscernible.


    Lin Xing placed the Cloud Fox on the ground. Finally, he couldn''t hold himself back anymore and coldly asked, "How many Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals do you have?"


    His eyes were extremely cold and gloomy as he stood in front of Cloudy Fox and stared at her.


    "Ah?" What did you say? What Ghost Soldier or Ghost General? " Cloudy Fox pretended not to understand.


    The Cloudy Fox immediately died from the pain and rolled on the ground. Old wrinkles started to extend to its neck, and only its face remained undamaged.


    "I will speak, I will speak." Yun Hu was frightened. A cold aura came from the depths of his soul. The masked man in front of him didn''t have the slightest intention of showing mercy to the fairer sex.


    "Are you really a spy from the Giant Spirit Sect?" Cloudy Fox''s mouth was wide open as he carefully asked.


    Lin Xing impatiently said, "You don''t need to ask me about my identity. Just answer my question and tell me everything that you are secretive about. I will help you cure the poison."


    Yun Hu nodded with great difficulty, then suddenly raised his head and said, "No, I''m telling you, the elders of the sect will not let me go, I will die even more miserably. If you want information from me, you might as well kill me."


    He blew a breath at her and said: "I won''t kill you, I will cut your lifespan down to the last ten years, and let you live by reason. Also, if you tell me everything, I can guarantee your safety, and I can let my master accept you as a disciple, you should know that as long as we welcome you back to the Tomb, no one in the world dares to disrespect us again." This might be a good thing for you! "


    Lin Qi confided in his heart and threw out this tempting olive branch. He had the intention of rebelling against Cloudy Fox.


    That Yun Hu was clearly moved, but he was quickly suppressed and said in a deep voice, "Good, very good. Other than a Giant Spirit Sect member with sharp eyes, I didn''t think that you would be here. I believe your position in the Giant Spirit Sect is not low at all. Could it be that Ye Feihua sent her? Maybe she''s the only one who can train such a bold, experienced, and astute spy like you. "


    "Speak, my patience is limited." Lin Qi didn''t want to hear her bullshit, so he gloomily stared at her.


    "I can only tell you part of the information. If you want to know more, then kill me." Yun Hu righteously said.


    Lin Qi suddenly laughed. Cloud Fox was afraid of the Yin Master Sect''s method of torturing the traitors, so he said with a hint of fear, "Speak." "Tell me about the Ghost Soldier General."


    "The moment the Giant Spirit Sect ambushed the Black Wind Mountain, our sect had already predicted that the war would start, so we made our preparations at that time. After getting the Sky Sect''s support, our clan elders sent out one hundred and eighty thousand ghost soldiers and three hundred ghost generals to enter the territory of the Sky Sect in batches, while twenty thousand ghost soldiers and thirty ghost generals were hidden here." Cloudy Fox said with a struggling expression.


    "What level is the Ghost General at?" Lin Xing asked.


    "The Ghastly Soldiers are all at the second level of the Soul Formation stage, while the Ghastly Generals are at the Dao realm as well." Cloudy Fox replied.


    "So that''s how it is." Lin Qi gently smiled. This information was very useful.


    After that, he did not ask anymore. He was worried that the fox would jump over a wall in a hurry. Instead, he sat down in an empty space and closed his eyes to recuperate.


    Seeing his actions, Cloudy Fox became even more furious. He suspected that this masked man was a man after all. Even a great beauty by his side could remain unmoved.


    One had to know that with her beauty, the number of pursuers could be said to be innumerable. Even Tian Zong had coveted her body for a long time. But Lin Xing had actually ignored her. This was simply inconceivable for Cloudy Fox who was used to seeing wind and moon.


    Although Lin Qi''s eyes were closed, he had not really fallen asleep. His mind had always been on guard, and no matter what happened in his surroundings, he could not escape his ears.


    Puff ¡­


    Not knowing how much time had passed, a sound of someone falling from the sky came from outside the cave. It immediately alarmed the entire mountain wilderness, and it naturally entered Lin Xing and Cloudy Fox''s ears.


    The two of them looked at each other. Lin Xing grabbed Cloudy Fox''s wrist and helped her walk out. It was just that the strength he used was a little too much.


    Because of the commotion, the eyes of the people in the black forest lit up again. The first people that caught their eyes were the three people from Tian Zong''s group.


    In front of them, there was a bloodied body with wounds all over. There was blood all over the body, and it lay on the ground as if it was breathing. At the same time, it continuously twitched and let out miserable cries.


    The aura of the Heaven Smiting Void Stage was released and crushed towards that person. Immediately, miserable cries sounded out as a series of blood spurted out from his body.


    "Death Soldiers from the Giant Spirit Sect. Hehe, you really are brave. You actually dared to steal my Demon Soldiers'' map by yourself. You''re a fool. Give your flesh and blood to my Demon Soldiers to enjoy." Tian Zong viciously kicked out with his right foot. That person''s body flew into the air and descended into the black forest.


    "Ah ¡­" Miserable screams sounded one after another, and only after a long time did they completely disappear.


    Hearing the words'' map '', Cloudy Fox''s complexion completely changed. As for Lin Xing, his heart was shaking. This was the most useful piece of information he had.


    "Cloudy Fox, you think you''re being smart all day. I already told you not to come here easily. Look at you now, you don''t even know if you''re being followed." Tian Zong turned around and shouted angrily at Yun Hu with an incomparably ashen face.


    "You think I''m smart?" Yun Hu coldly smiled. He didn''t know that you had revealed all of your secrets without any warning.


    She was too lazy to continue talking to these idiots. Just as she was about to turn back and return to the cave, she let out a sigh and said half-mockingly: "Look after your ghost soldiers'' map. Don''t let others steal it."


    At the end of her sentence, she intentionally glanced at Lin Qi.


    Tian Zong didn''t notice her expression and immediately laughed disdainfully, "Whoever dares to snatch it away, I will use its flesh and blood to feed the ghost soldiers. Moreover, unless an Elder from the Giant Spirit Sect personally comes, who else can snatch it from my hands?"


    At the same time, the aura of the Heaven Smiting Stage was completely released, causing the expressions of the two people beside him to change. Their faces were filled with reverence, and they gave off an indescribable might.


    His face turned serious as he said, "Our foothold has been exposed. We will leave as soon as the sky turns dark."

 C88

    The setting sun was blood-red, and the twilight was heavy.


    No matter if it was day or day, the valley sank into endless darkness.


    It was going to be dark soon, and time was of the essence. Lin Xing steadied his mind and opened his eyes. He took the opportunity when Yun Hu was not paying attention to knock her out, then his body flashed and disappeared.


    At this moment, Tian Zong was also sitting alone in a cave, cultivating with his eyes closed. The thick nether energy that surrounded him was almost corporeal as a dark energy shrouded him.


    At this moment, he suddenly felt something strange in his surroundings. He opened his eyes, activated the nether energy in his body, and shot out a palm.


    However, the next moment, his gaze was filled with horror. He saw a black hole, a black hole that could devour everything. It immediately caused his entire body to fall into it, and a short blank space appeared in his mind.


    In that split-second, Lin Qi rushed up and took out a piece of fabric from his waist. He then took a quick look and used his photographic memory to remember everything. Then, he stuffed the cloth back into Tian Zong''s waist.


    Then his body disappeared in a flash.


    When Tian Zong regained his consciousness, he did not understand what had just happened. However, he was certain that someone had barged in, so he first touched his head and then the map on his waist. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief and let out a cold snort of disdain.


    Then, he walked out of the cave, looking through the layers of dark clouds at the scene under the dome. He shouted, "Let''s go!"


    Following his order, rows and rows of eyes in the dense forest lit up, causing a commotion, and then floated out.


    They were all ghosts, with varying ages. The elderly, women, and children were all present, and they were all undead that had died an innocent death, refined by the Yin Master School.


    As soon as Lin Xing returned to the cave, he patted Cloudy Fox awake. She looked at him in confusion, her face pale. She was sure that while she was unconscious, he must have made some moves.


    "Can it be that map?" When he thought here, he felt that it was not practical. No matter how strong Lin Xing was, he was only in the Dao Division. And that Tian Zong was a Heaven Smiting Stage expert who wanted to snatch something from his hands? It was as difficult as ascending to heaven.


    "Cloudfox, Senior Martial Brother Tian Zong ordered us to move." A burly man walked in, speaking bluntly.


    Yun Hu coldly nodded his head, told him that he knew, and then walked out with Lin Qi supporting him.


    Looking at the Ghost Soldiers, Lin Xing was extremely shocked. Endless killing intent surged out from him. Those who were alive were all commoners, and even after death they would not be able to find peace. The ruthlessness of the Dark Sect was truly chilling.


    Tian Zong glanced at Yun Hu and Lin Xing coldly and said, "The two of you follow behind."


    After that, he did not care about Yun Hu''s expression anymore and directly led the large group of ghosts out of the valley.


    Since the Cloudy Fox was injured, Lin Xing decided to carry it on his back.


    At this moment, the sky outside had turned completely dark. The surroundings were completely silent. Although there were a lot of ghost soldiers, they still moved forward lightly without making a sound.


    Four hours later, Tian Zong, who was walking right in front, suddenly got into a fight with his eyelids closed. He waved his hand and told the ghost soldiers to stop and carefully scanned his surroundings.


    The cloud fox''s expression also became extremely strange. It turned around and looked back, only to see that it was pitch black. Lin Xing also did not become happy, feeling that something was off.


    He raised his foot, and suddenly felt his mind shake. Carrying the Cloud Fox on his back, he quickly retreated.


    The next moment, the ground under his feet trembled. A gigantic arm rose up from the ground, followed by a head and a body that was slowly lifted up from the ground. At this moment, Tian Zong and a large group of ghost soldiers were standing on the body of the giant.


    "Ambush." "Retreat."


    Tian Zong was both shocked and furious. He stood on the head of the giant and leaped into the air when the giant''s body was completely revealed. He flew out and dodged the giant''s furious attack.


    It was half a meter tall, and its skin looked somewhat petrified. It was slightly different from the Giant Spirit Sect from before. It looked like a giant stone beast, and was extremely hard, as if it didn''t have the slightest flaw.


    As for the ghost soldiers, they were also in the air, rushing towards the giant and launching a fierce attack.


    Some of them could even transform into various forms or weapons, and their bodies were extremely light. They were as fast as lightning, and their attacks were as clear as lightning.


    The giant''s fist came crashing down, creating a huge wave of Qi that knocked away many of the ghost soldiers that were wrapped around him.


    At the same time, a group of black figures rushed out from the forest. When Cloudy Fox saw this scene, his expression couldn''t help but change.


    Those were the death warriors of the Giant Spirit Sect, and the leader was the strict middle-aged man who had appeared not long ago.


    He was sitting upright on top of a spirit beast, calm and composed, commanding in a steady manner. It was as if there were sharp blades hidden in his eyes, ready to kill at any moment.


    "Fight."


    Tian Zong was greatly shocked in his heart. He still shouted out in a loud voice. He did not show much fear. However, he stirred up his fighting spirit and charged straight towards the stern middle-aged man.


    Because Lin Qi had anticipated the danger, he immediately retreated far away while hiding at the side with the Cloud Fox on his back.


    Suddenly, he put the Cloud Fox on the ground and rushed up. To Yun Hu''s surprise, Lin Xing''s attack was not aimed at the Cult of Yin, but at the Giant Spirit Sect.


    In addition, their moves were fierce and each strike was fatal. After a series of attacks, the flesh and blood of the two Death Soldiers were splattered all over as they died completely.


    Yun Hu was truly dumbfounded. He didn''t understand what kind of medicine Lin Xing had bought from the gourd.


    With the Giant Spirit Sect''s support, he could easily reveal his identity and then work together to kill the ghost soldiers. However, he did not do so and instead chose to help the Yin Master School retreat, which made Yun Hu question Lin Xing''s status for the first time.


    "Good, not bad."


    For such a powerful battle force to erupt from a Dao Seeking stage cultivator, it must have attracted the attention of everyone and ghosts. That Tian Zong excitedly praised.


    The strict middle-aged man coldly snorted, his expression extremely gloomy. Lin Xing had killed 10 deathsworn in the blink of an eye. To them, this was undoubtedly a fatal attack.


    However, on the next scene, both of their expressions froze. After killing the dozen people, they didn''t even bother to look as they left, carrying the cloud fox on their backs and running away.


    Tian Zong was stupefied and stood blankly on the spot. It was time for the strict middle-aged man to start laughing.

 C89

    On a mountain peak not too far away from Black Wind Mountain, Giant Spirit Sect''s experts were everywhere. At this time, the strict middle-aged man had just returned from an ambush.


    All of them were wounded. The middle-aged man also had a knife wound on his back, which made him look like a defeated soldier. This ambush was not as easy and simple as he had expected.


    The crowd that was welcoming them back from their triumphant return couldn''t help but have a gloomy expression on their faces when they saw their sorry appearances.


    Standing at the very front was the strangely dressed Ye Feihua, who stared at the strict middle-aged man and asked with a frown, "What''s going on? You actually did not bring back the head of Tian Zong despite sending so many experts. "


    This battle had originally been a victory within his grasp, but he never expected it to turn out like this. This was outside of Ye Feihua''s expectations, so his voice was a little cold.


    "Marshal Ye, your subordinate is useless." The strict middle-aged man had an ashamed expression.


    The strict middle-aged man was a Heaven Smiting Stage expert, but Ye Feihua was still at the same level as last time. He was able to cause the strict middle-aged man to be respectful towards him, and with respect from the bottom of his heart, his identity could be seen in the Giant Spirit Sect.


    Ye Feihua exchanged a glance with Giant Thoughts on the side, then whispered to the strict middle-aged man, "Tell me what happened first."


    Tian Zong has twenty thousand Ghost Soldiers and at least thirty Ghost Generals under his command. Although we are an ambush, it is impossible to suppress them in a fight, let alone annihilate them. Furthermore, there is also a man wearing a mask. The strict middle-aged man had a bitter expression.


    "Twenty thousand ghost soldiers and thirty ghost generals?"


    A rare look of surprise appeared on Ye Feihua''s pretty face.


    "Ye Shuai may not know, but Tian Zong is the direct descendant of the Head Elder of the Sword Sect. He has always been favored by him, so it is not surprising that he has such great power." Giant Reed was brimming with energy and vitality as he smiled.


    "So that''s how it is. This time, I am to blame for not understanding this enemy. I originally thought that Tian Zong was just a chief disciple and didn''t take it to heart. I threw out the bait and found their hiding spot, just using a little trick to kill him. Ye Feihua sighed and turned to the stern middle-aged man to comfort him. "Lei Ying, order your subordinates to go back and rest. Anyone who''s injured can go retrieve their own pills."


    "Thank you, Commander Ye." Lei Ying cupped his hands in thanks. Just as he turned around and took two steps, he was suddenly stopped by Ye Feihua.


    "Wait a moment."


    "Hmm?" Lei Ying turned around and looked at Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua noticed the bodies of the ten or so Death Soldiers. His face lit up in surprise as he pursed his lips. "The wounds on these corpses are so strange."


    "Strange?"


    Everyone looked at the corpses with confused expressions. They couldn''t tell what was going on, nor did they find anything strange.


    Staring intently at the corpses, Ye Feihua suddenly had a crazed expression of joy, as if he had discovered a new continent. Using his fingers, he pointed out a dozen or so corpses and said, "Quickly place these corpses neatly in place.


    Hearing this, Lei Ying and the people beside him were stunned. After recovering from their shock, they immediately ordered their men to follow suit.


    After taking off their clothes and seeing the wounds on the corpses, everyone''s expression became incomparably shocked.


    This was because the scars on every corpse were very similar to the terrain, as if they were carved by someone using a sword. It was very eye-catching.


    No matter how foolish they were, they knew what it was.


    "Copy this terrain down immediately." Ye Feihua took a deep breath. With all this, victory was in sight.


    "Commander Ye, could you be up to no good?" Giant Reed asked, puzzled.


    Ye Feihua temporarily did not answer this question. Instead, he stared at Lei Ying and asked seriously, "Do you know who killed these people?"


    "This is the masked man that this subordinate mentioned earlier. His battle prowess is unrivalled, and he instantly killed ten of our Dao Seeking Deathsworn. That''s why this subordinate has a very deep impression of him." If this was really the map of the ghost soldiers of the Yin Court, then these ten deaths were worth it.


    "That shouldn''t be a plan." Ye Feihua said with certainty.


    He then continued, "From the time we intentionally leaked the information about Tomb Slaughter to the time at the Giant Spirit Sect, to when they secretly told us the locations of the ghost soldiers, it seems like there has always been someone behind the scenes."


    "Is he our friend?" asked Giant.


    From this, we can see that he is not our friend. However, the two of us should have a common enemy, the Yin Building Sect. "The old man smiled and said.


    Speaking up to here, Ye Feihua''s mind immediately conjured up the image of a youth. His pair of beautiful eyes were wide open, dazzling to the eye. He already had a suspect in them.


    "Jing Si, this time, you will personally lead the troops. You must remove all of these ghost soldiers." Ye Feihua''s expression became extremely solemn.


    "I will not fail my mission." When Giant Creed heard this, he felt that his blood was boiling. The fighting spirit in his heart soared. He waved his sleeve and immediately began to act.


    The west wind was still blowing. Within the city, there were rows upon rows of buildings, and under the setting sun, the golden tiles were especially resplendent. It was a scene of twilight.


    The streets at the center of the city were bustling with activity. There were businessmen walking the streets, nobles wearing fine clothes, and awe-inspiring law enforcers ¡­


    After a day and night of travelling, Lin Xing and Yun Hu arrived at the city. This was the capital of the Star Origin Country, and the Star Origin Country was one of the top ten countries in the Heavenly Sect''s territory.


    Cloudy Fox looked at all kinds of delicacies and trinkets on the street and revealed the nature of a young girl. He skipped and hopped, taking care of his own business as he ran forward, stopping from time to time to admire, taste, and play.


    Lin Qi smiled helplessly, but he still calmly followed. He was certain that the cloud fox did not dare to run, and had already told her clearly the night before that there was no one in this world other than him who could solve that problem.


    Of course, this didn''t rule out the possibility of him threatening her. If there really was a peerless expert who was willing to expel the poison for her, it wasn''t impossible that he wouldn''t succeed.


    Although she was playing around very happily, she still managed to keep her distance from Lin Xing. Who could guarantee that he wouldn''t have any suspicions? She didn''t want to end up with the old demoness'' face.

 C90

    Cloudy Fox arrived at a stall. There were all kinds of strange items on it. Some of them were flowing with light, while others were sparkling and translucent. They were all glittering with golden light.


    The stall owner was an old man over his years of age. He had white hair at his temples and after checking for a while, he realized that his cultivation base was still in the right level, so he was constantly shouting and selling. However, because he was only selling playthings from the secular world, and was in the Star Country that was filled with God Cultivators, no one was interested in him.


    Cloudy Fox, on the other hand, seemed to have broadened his horizons. He unconsciously looked over and picked up a bracelet and wore it on his wrist. The more he looked, the more he liked it.


    "May I ask how much this is?" Yun Hu asked with his eyes wide open.


    The old man looked at her with a smile and said, "I see that the young lady really likes them. Why don''t we just take them two spirit crystals?"


    "Two Spirit Crystals?" Cloudy Fox widened his eyes in shock.


    "What is it? Could it be that the lady was unwilling? You might as well ask around, the price of things this old man sells has always been fair and honest. " The old man said with a displeased expression.


    "No, no, two is two. Deal." Cloudy Fox quickly shook his head.


    She immediately reached for her waist. Her expression could not help but become awkward. She was penniless and even took out half of her money. She then threw a pleading look at Lin Xing who had just arrived.


    At the same time, he took out two spirit crystals from his soul cave. Just as he was about to give them to the old man, an embroidered arm reached out from beside him, pushing his arm back.


    Following the direction of the arm, he looked at the body of the man. It was a young man in brocade clothes. He looked spirited and stared at the fox with a fire burning in his eyes. He looked a little surprised.


    Beside him was a group of people that all followed him respectfully, showing their reverence and respect.


    "Girl, I''ll help you pay for these two Spirit Crystals. Take a look and see if there''s anything else you like, I''ll buy it as well." The young man in embroidered clothing chuckled as he spoke.


    With a wave of his hand, more than ten spirit crystals fell out of his sleeve and landed in front of the old man.


    Lin Qi, who wore the mask of a ghost, helplessly kept the spirit crystal. At the same time, he couldn''t help but sigh with emotion.


    Yun Hu did not refuse his good intentions and revealed his two rows of white teeth. He slightly bowed towards the young man in embroidered clothes and said, "Many thanks, Young Master. "Then I won''t be rude."


    "This is nothing. There are many things in my residence that are even more beautiful than this. If you are interested, why don''t you come with me to have a look? You can take whatever you want with you." The young man in embroidered clothing looked at the cloud fox and said without blinking.


    "Sure, sure." Cloudy Fox immediately revealed the excitement of a young girl as he jumped up and down.


    In fact, as an inner disciple of the Yin Master School, Yun Hu was used to seeing flowers, snow, and moon; she was used to seeing evil in people''s hearts. With her mentality, how could she not know what the young man was thinking?


    "However, I still have to ask if my young master is willing to go. Only if I get his permission will I dare to go with you. Otherwise, he will beat me to death." Yun Hu whispered to the young man in embroidered clothing. He stole a few glances at Lin Xing and cautiously asked.


    "What?! This is your young master?!" "That''s impossible." The young man in embroidered clothing was astonished. He looked at Lin Qi, who was wearing a mask and playing tricks on him. No matter how he looked at it, he didn''t feel good. He didn''t believe that he would have such a beautiful servant girl.


    "That''s right. This kind of person who dares not show his true face even while pretending to be mysterious, could he be your young master, miss?" Why don''t I believe it? "


    "Hmph, why don''t you come and seek refuge with our Seventh Prince? He is the prince of the Star Origin Country, and is of great authority. If you follow him, you can guarantee your wealth and wealth in the future."


    When the old man with the stall heard the words'' Seventh Prince '', he immediately kneeled on the ground with a face full of reverence. The Seventh Prince, on the other hand, had a very satisfied look on his face.


    "But, Young Master and I have already signed the indenture contract." The cloud fox was stuttering. Its expression was difficult, revealing the cowardice of a young girl.


    Seeing her expression, Seventh Prince suddenly burst into laughter. His gaze swept over Cloudy Fox''s body, and the more he looked, the more satisfied and excited he became. He then turned to Lin Xing and said, "This brother here, can you give me your servant girl.


    Lin Qi coldly smiled and said, "Fifty thousand spirit crystals."


    "What?" "You''re crazy." The Seventh Prince and the surrounding people were astonished, looking at him like he was a madman.


    Who knew that Cloudy Fox would walk over to Seventh Prince, and rub his clothes with his arm a few times. "Does Your Highness think that I am not worthy of this price?" I think the value that our young master offered is very reasonable. "


    "Reasonable?"


    The two of them seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. No matter how beautiful Yun Hu was, fifty thousand spirit crystals was really too much. One had to know, fifty thousand spirit crystals was enough to buy a city of sorts.


    "Your Highness, he''s clearly blackmailing us. How about you let me teach him a lesson and see what kind of ability he has to not put us in his eyes."


    Someone had volunteered to take the field. The Seventh Prince''s eyes were slightly gloomy. He didn''t say a word, so it could be said that he had acquiesced.


    That person immediately released the Qi of the Dao Division as he pounced towards Lin Qi. Accompanied by a wave of wind blades, they cut towards him like blades.


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold as he dashed forward, casting the Hidden Heaven Spell. That person didn''t even have the time to see the situation clearly before he was sent flying with a palm strike. With a ''kacha'' sound, two or three of his ribs were broken and he fell to the ground spitting out blood.


    "How dare you use violence on my territory?" His Highness Seventh Prince was furious. He waved his hand and a group of people surrounded Lin Qi. Moreover, some law enforcers in the distance also heard the commotion and rushed to support him.


    Yun Hu''s charming face revealed a trace of cowardice. He hid behind Lin Qi like a little kitten. When he saw the vicious crowd around him, he could not help but shiver in fear.


    Lin Qi was speechless. Cloudy Fox''s acting skills could be described as peak-level, yet he still managed to attract a lot of enemies towards him.


    "Miss, don''t be afraid. I won''t let anyone hurt you. Right now, I''m saving you from the jaws of death." Seventh Prince looked at Cloudy Fox''s fearful appearance, which made him look like a needle was pricking his skin. He felt very proud of himself.


    "Yes, yes." Cloudy Fox grabbed onto the corner of Lin Xing''s shirt and nodded in confusion.


    "Seventh Prince, today is the time for the Northern Tomb King to return from the Heavenly Cauldron. The elders of the Skysplit Sect have personally come to congratulate us, so we can''t delay them. So, we''re lacking in manners." Someone came forward to persuade the Seventh Prince.


    Seventh Prince revealed a proud smile and then sneered, "My uncle has returned today. Haha, in the future, even the Sky Sect would have to give us some face. Go to his house and inform him that I will be there soon. If I want to destroy him, it will only be a piece of cake. "


    Heavenly Cauldron ¡­


    When the surrounding people heard these two words, their minds were completely shaken. Even Cloudy Fox was unable to remain calm. Deep in his eyes, a deep sense of horror flashed.


    "Northern Tomb King? So it''s really him. When I heard this news, I almost couldn''t believe it. " Lin Qi secretly said in his heart.

 C91

    Three months ago, when Lin Xing led the army to attack the position of the Giant Spirit Sect, an explosive news spread throughout the territory of the Sky Sect like a pair of wings, spreading all the way to the border.


    The Stellar Kingdom''s Northern Tomb King had become the only person to trigger the Heaven Cauldron in the past hundred years. Of course, he didn''t include Lin Xing. After all, he only triggered it back then, and didn''t enter.


    The Heavenly Cauldron was an ancient and mysterious space that had existed since the ancient times. It only appeared when an unrivaled freak broke through to the sky tribulation and then entered it to cultivate for three months.


    It was said that there was dense spirit energy and was extremely pure. Rare treasures could be found everywhere. There were also all kinds of ancient ruins. Any normal thing would bring out a shocking treasure.


    Those who were able to attract the attention of the heavenly cauldrons were all peerless geniuses, and there were also five or six other great sects nearby. In the past hundred years, only a few people had been able to enter the heavenly cauldrons.


    However, because he had grown in age, his cultivation level could not be raised, so he was expelled from the sect. When he returned to the country, he relied on his status as the sect head to be bestowed the title of king, which could be considered as a glorious life, but he spent his days in seclusion outside the sect, playing some tricks. Finally, at the age of forty-five, he broke through to the sky tribulation and even activated the Heavenly Cauldron, causing a huge commotion in the surrounding area, such as the Giant Spirit Sect, Yin Sect, and so on.


    This was because they all knew that the future of the Heavenly Cauldron monster was incalculable.


    So many prodigies and geniuses had dreamt of entering the Heavenly Cauldron, but unfortunately, they had not been able to do so. To think that the Northern Tomb King had broken the record, it had to be said to be a miracle.


    Forging swords over ten years, their sharpness was revealed, and they didn''t cry out for a long time, shocking everyone with a single brilliant feat.


    He would never have imagined that it would be the King of Northern Tombs who had activated the Heaven Cauldron. He and the King of Northern Tombs had met twice, and he was an honest man who appeared to be extremely loyal to his master. Even though his bones were weak, his mind was firm and he could not hold back.


    "Is it really the Northern Tomb King?"


    Lin Qi asked the Seventh Prince in a daze. He still couldn''t believe it. After he came back from the border, due to his busy schedule, he didn''t inquire about the authenticity of the news.


    "How can that be false? The Northern Tomb King is my blood uncle, with his rise, even the Heaven Sect would have to give face to our Xing Yuan Kingdom. If you are afraid now, hand over your servant girl and then kneel and beg for mercy, I will spare your life."


    Seventh Prince''s arrogance reached the heavens when he thought of this matter. In fact, even he did not expect that the trashy uncle who had humiliated his clan would become the legend that had triggered the Heavenly Cauldron. It was simply inconceivable.


    Shock was shock, and in that case, his uncle''s achievements would definitely be immeasurable, and even their country would rise to prominence.


    "Get out of the way, I''m going to visit him myself." Lin Xing said in a deep voice.


    Cloudy Fox hid behind him. His eyes also revealed a strange light. A look of surprise appeared on her pretty face. She too wanted to see the legendary freakish appearance of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "You? What is your identity? Did he take the wrong medicine? "My uncle is now in his 95th year of age. Even I have rarely seen him, how could you have the qualifications to speak so arrogantly?"


    Seventh Prince''s expression froze. Obviously, he was startled by Lin Xing''s words. Then, he began to laugh with the people around him in disdain.


    His Highness the Seventh Prince especially held his stomach and laughed, as if he was amused.


    Puff ¡­


    A figure quickly rushed over, causing his laughter to suddenly stop. He was caught off guard and was suddenly sent flying by Lin Xing''s punch.


    "You''re courting death. Kill him."


    However, he was truly worthy of being a prince of the Star Country. His cultivation was comparable to an inner disciple of the Heaven Sect. After flying for more than ten meters, he landed on the ground steadily with both hands covering his chest.


    With a single command, the seven to eight Dao-Opening Realm cultivators, including the city law enforcers, began attacking Lin Xing.


    A crafty look appeared in Cloudy Fox''s eyes. He immediately ran to the side and hid in a corner as he watched the battle.


    Lin Qi wanted to strangle her to death so much he thought, ''Aren''t you the one who caused all this trouble?''


    The seven or eight Daolords and the group of Enforcers at the level of Deities Templar attacked at the same time. Under the condition that they didn''t reveal their trump cards, it was quite difficult for Lin Qi to defend against them, causing him to be continuously pushed back.


    The three of them flew over from the sky. Each of them used a divine technique, bursting out with boundless divine power.


    One of them had the most terrifying divine technique. It was able to create a dream-like phenomenon. As the divine technique was used, a large amount of fresh flowers and weeds grew on the ground.


    Although the scenery was beautiful, when it approached in front of Lin Qi, it immediately became sharp. The petals were like blades as they rolled over, and the sound of wind being torn rang out. It was abnormally sharp and ear-piercing.


    Lin Qi pulled out his wooden sabre and held it in front of him to block. At the same time, he waved it to block all of the flower petals, causing sparks to fly out.


    Then, he used his blade to slash horizontally. Seeing the opportunity, he first slashed at the three people in the sky. The trio turned pale with fright. They had not expected that he would still have this move. They were all sent flying with blood dripping from their chests, falling to the ground heavily injured.


    "The Heaven Smiting Stage!"


    This was because they were sure that Lin Xing was only at the Dao Seeking stage, and that he had a weapon hidden in his body. Mo Dao had appeared out of nowhere and attacked them, and had struck them hard in the head.


    That Lin Xing''s cultivation realm was even more obvious, he must be a Heaven Smiting Stage powerhouse.


    Yun Hu''s eyes were wide open as he stared at Lin Qi in disbelief. After interacting with him for so long, he had just discovered that Lin Xing was actually a Heaven Smiting Stage powerhouse that had hidden himself very deeply, but after thinking for a while, his expression became extremely strange. No matter how he investigated, he was only at the Dao Division Stage.


    The others withdrew their attacks and retreated to the side, dazed. They were shocked by Lin Xing''s action of taking out Mo Dao from the soul hole.


    The blade in Lin Qi''s hand was thrown heavily. He didn''t attack anyone else, but instead shot towards the Seventh Prince. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of him like a black ray of light.

 C92

    His Highness was scared out of his wits and immediately came back to his senses. He took out his palms to catch the blade that was flying towards him. Due to the terrifying force, he had to take seven or eight steps back to stabilize his body.


    Before he could react, Lin Xing''s body had already arrived in front of him. He slapped his palm on the saber hilt, causing both of the Seventh Prince''s arms to tremble and feel numb. When the blade''s edge was three inches away from his chest, he used all his strength to block the blade.


    Just a little bit more and the black blade would pierce through his heart. As he looked at the blade underneath his skin, cold sweat began to pour out of his forehead.


    Lin Qi didn''t even give him a chance to catch his breath. He immediately condensed the power in his palm, and appeared behind the Seventh Prince in a flash, striking out towards his back.


    The inertia from the blade hadn''t completely disappeared yet. Lin Xing''s palm struck out and the Seventh Prince''s body flew forward with a "Ah!". When he hit the blade, a black shadow appeared out of nowhere and kicked Mo Dao away.


    Lin Qi followed the dagger and flew over. He caught it in one hand and then put it back into his soul hole.


    "Doesn''t this friend not feel that he''s too vicious?"


    The black shadow revealed his true form. He was a young man in a white robe, clean and spotless, emitting a faint fragrance and an elegant demeanor. He was two meters tall, looking down at Lin Qi from above.


    After that, a large group of young men and women surrounded the white-robed middle-aged man. The women looked at him with infatuated eyes.


    At this moment, Seventh Prince was standing beside him, his body drenched in sweat, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat. He looked at Lin Xing, his heart palpitating, but soon it turned into resentment and anger.


    "Even if you don''t save him, I won''t kill him." Lin Qi did not say much and just replied casually.


    Previously, he only wanted to frighten the Seventh Prince and kill him, but he didn''t really want to kill him. After all, he still wanted to visit the Northern Tomb King, and if he were to kill his nephew first, the situation would become awkward.


    "You''re lying. You clearly wanted to kill me just now. If brother Shen hadn''t appeared in time, I would have been dead by your sword." The Seventh Prince said in a stern voice.


    "Shen?" When Lin Qi heard the word, his eyes narrowed.


    No wonder the white-robed young man in front of him looked familiar. Upon hearing the word ''Seventh Prince'', a person suddenly appeared in his mind.


    Shen Shan, was also one of the top five disciples in the Heavenly Ascension Sect. However, the number of people who saw his true face was not many. He was ordered to study in Sikong Sect five years ago, and he had probably just returned not long ago. Lin Qi was fortunate enough to meet him twice, but it was still seven or eight years ago, so he did not have a deep impression of him.


    It was said that she did not even put him in her eyes and had already cultivated to the Dao Reaching Realm before she left. In the five years that Sikong Zhaixing had been studying, with his qualifications, he had definitely entered the Heaven Smiting Stage long ago. Furthermore, he could feel the Qi that he emitted when he easily sent Mo Dao flying.


    Sikong Zhaixing was from the same Divine Arts Sect, also from the same branch as the Heavenly Ascension Sect. However, it was extremely far from here, and the round trip would take about a year.


    Of the young men and women that followed beside him, none of them were people that Lin Xing recognized. Presumably, they were the Sikong Sect disciples that followed him back.


    Standing side by side with Shen Shan, he raised his eyebrows very high, as if he was looking down on the people around him, and furthermore, his aura was also emitted without any concealment, as if he was in a calamity.


    "Regardless of whether or not you have the intention to kill him, since I have already seen him, I won''t sit by and do not ask. Moreover, the Seventh Prince is my best friend, immediately apologize to him, I can forgive your mistake." Shen Yi casually said.


    The moment he said those words, the surrounding Sikong Zhaixing women immediately became enraptured. They secretly sent out Qiufeng and displayed an extraordinary measure and sharpness. Even Cloudy Fox was stunned by him. His eyes turned to look at her, unable to shift away for a moment.


    "How can that be? Apologizing is letting him off too lightly. Brother Shen, just now, this person wanted to kill me." The Seventh Prince shouted in indignation.


    Shen Shan lightly smiled and paid no attention to him, instead paying no attention to him.


    "I wonder, what kind of apology is that?" Lin Qi asked without batting an eyelid.


    "Kneel down and kowtow three times to the Seventh Prince. That''s enough." Shen Shan said.


    "Impossible." Lin Qi did his best to suppress the anger in his heart.


    "Hmm? You dare to disobey? "


    Shen Shan''s face did not have much of a reaction, but that elegant young man coldly looked at Lin Xing, his gaze was like a blade, extremely sharp, seemingly able to penetrate through Lin Xing''s body.


    "So what if they disobey? Where did you get the right to point fingers in front of me? If you want me to kneel down, that''s fine, but why don''t you kowtow three times first. " Lin Xing Yi Ran was not afraid as she replied strongly.


    As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was shocked. So what if Lin Xing was in the sky level? So what if there were two air raiders in front of him? Was he really not afraid of death?


    Looking at the ghost-like mask on Lin Xing''s face, the elegant youth''s face darkened.

 C93

    The young man''s face darkened as he stared at Lin Qi with unfriendly eyes. Suddenly, he clenched his fists, wanting to use force.


    Lin Xing Yi Ran was not afraid. She was calm as she stared at the group of people in front of her. Although her face was covered, her eyes revealed an incomparable calmness.


    "Hey, Brother Yu, this is my sect''s territory, it''s my family''s business, there''s no need for you to use violence. Just leave it to me. "


    Shen Shan was like a jade-like goddess as he happily opened his mouth. It was as if he treated himself as an emperor that pointed the rivers and mountains, aloof and aloof. As for Lin Xing, he was like a small child that had made a mistake.


    Shen Shan''s every word and action were relaxed and elegant, immediately capturing another large wave of her heart.


    Lin Qi couldn''t help but sneer, his eyes emitting a sharp light as they locked onto him.


    He was very angry, all the good people were done by Shen Shan, with a few words he pushed him to the heart of the matter, and even put him under the hat of a bad guy.


    "Brother Shen, could it be that every single nameless junior in your Heavenly Sect''s territory is as arrogant as him? "If that''s the case, I will have to teach him a lesson. I don''t want to embarrass my Divine Arts faction." The youth surnamed Zhu said coldly.


    Shen Shan smiled but did not say anything. Suddenly, she raised her head to look at Lin Qi and her body moved. In an instant, she appeared in front of Lin Qi. She was as fast as lightning and had no trace of her movements.


    "Since Brother Arc has said so, I''ll let him teach me a lesson." His words filled the air.


    When they saw him take action, the girls screamed and jumped up in excitement.


    Lin Qi was prepared for this, and his face did not reveal much panic. Facing the powerful attack of this Heaven Smiting Stage expert, he did not dodge. He immediately took out his blade and slashed it towards the shadow.


    His speed was too fast, to the point that afterimages were everywhere. Lin Xing''s saber slashed through the air, and then slashed out four or five times. At the same time, a massive shockwave burst out, spreading out in all directions.


    "What incredible speed." Lin Xing was alarmed as he caught sight of the surrounding afterimages.


    Shen Shan''s speed was so fast that it shocked him. Mo Dao had already slashed all the afterimages.


    Suddenly, a crisis came from above his head, and a sharp voice sounded out. At this critical moment, he could no longer afford to hide his trump card, so he immediately used the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique.


    A black lantern appeared out of nowhere, emitting a dense immortal energy with a resplendent halo. This caused Shen Shan to be slightly startled; he never expected Lin Xing to know any immortal arts.


    "Celestial Arts..." How is that possible? If I didn''t detect incorrectly, his power must be nether. "


    The youth surnamed Arc, the Seventh Prince, Yun Hu, and everyone around were all greatly taken aback and felt that it was inconceivable.


    The combination of netherworld spiritual energy and immortal spiritual energy had completely overturned all of their knowledge. It could even be said to be unprecedented.


    "The nether energy in his body should have been formed from a magic technique and was used to confuse us. What he really cultivates should be immortal energy." The youth surnamed Arc was in a daze, using these words to comfort himself.


    Seventh Prince heard these words and bitterly shook his head. He could confirm that Lin Xing had used nether energy to attack him.


    Turning the camera to the battlefield, he saw that after Lin Xing activated the black light, he easily blocked Shen Yi''s attack. At the same time, a second black light appeared on his left shoulder, burning with ice-cold flames.


    Shen Shan''s brows turned wide open as he smiled at Lin Qi. The power of the Heaven Smiting Stage was fully released as he activated his Divine Arts.


    A strange scene appeared behind him. It was a vast expanse of white space with white mist everywhere. There was a sun in the depths of the white mist, faintly discernible through it as it emitted a weak red light.


    He waved his sleeve, and the white phenomenon engulfed Lin Qi. The latter paled in fright, unable to defend against the black lamp. All he could do was to retreat quickly.


    At the same time, from afar, a woman riding a crane coincidentally landed next to Lin Qi and gracefully landed on the ground.


    When Shen Shan saw the girl appear, he immediately retracted his white abnormal sign. His smile did not decrease, and he changed to a gentle and refined temperament, smiling as he looked over.


    When the surrounding people saw the girl''s appearance, a hint of amazement flashed across their eyes.


    Lin Qi, on the other hand, was greatly shocked. He felt a sense of indescribable emotion, melancholy, and excitement, as well as the beautiful memories of his past ¡­


    The woman was dressed in green and had a picturesque appearance. She had a beautiful face that was behaving like a fish falling and geese falling. Her temperament was unimaginable, and behind her shoulders was a graceful and elegant figure.


    She was Cang Xiaoxiao, whom Lin Xing would never forget.


    Lin Qi had not expected to meet her at such an occasion, and wearing a mask at that. Maybe Cang Xiao did not recognize him.


    "Xiaoxiao, what a coincidence. You should be here to congratulate the King of Northern Tombs for activating the Heaven Cauldron, right?" Shen Shan gently smiled and said.


    A look of admiration appeared in his eyes. Even though it was very minute, Lin Xing was able to catch it with his eyes. If he remembered correctly, Shen Shan had already publicly confessed Cang Xiaoxiao five years ago.


    "So it''s Senior Shen. It''s been five years. Senior has finally returned. I wonder if senior has been doing well in the Sikong Sect during these five years?" Cang Xiaoxiao stretched out her hands and caressed the head of the crane. The crane understood and spread its wings, flying towards the sky.


    "Everything is not bad. I heard that our sect has been through a lot of troubles recently, so I specially came back to do my best. Moreover, I even brought back many of Sikong Zhaixing''s geniuses. Xiaoxiao, come, let me introduce you." Shen Shan pointed to the youth surnamed Qu and said, "This is You, Sikong Zhaixing''s second genius. He has already trained Di Yifan to the fourth level, even I am willing to admit defeat."


    Hearing this, the youth surnamed Yin pretended to be modest and said: "These are all Brother Shen''s Liao Pao. Miss Cang, there is no need to take it seriously. When I was at Sikong Sect, I had heard of Miss Cang''s name.


    Cang Xiao smiled and revealed a surprised look on her face, "What? If that''s the case, Senior Brother Yu is truly a genius. "


    He had cultivated the ''Monarch Occult Force'' secret art to its peak, possessing the power to topple mountains and overturn the seas. To be able to reach the fourth stage of the ''Monarch Occult Force'' technique at such a young age, it was truly extraordinary.


    As for Sikong Zhaixing''s number one genius, Lin Xing had also heard of him. It was said that he was a peerless genius who had entered the Heavenly Cauldron like the Northern Tomb King.


    Not every genius had the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Cauldron. And once they entered the Heavenly Cauldron, they would become characters that were set to become gods.

 C94

    "I heard Senior Brother Shen say that our sect''s recent complications are actually just a small matter, not something Senior Brother needs to worry about. However, now that the Giant Spirit Sect is at war with the Yin Master School, we should pay more attention to this matter. " Cang Xiao said as if he was deep in thought, as if he was trying to divert Shen Shan''s thoughts away.


    Shen Shan slightly smiled and said: "I know Lin Qi was once Xiaoxiao''s junior brother, it is only natural for you to care about him. As for the war between the Giant Spirit Sect and the Yin Sect, there will be a group of Elders to handle it, and the thing that I will need to do after returning is to apprehend Lin Xing and bring him to justice.


    Upon hearing this, the corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched involuntarily as a cold light flashed across his eyes.


    Cang Xiao immediately stopped smiling and said in a deep voice, "I know that my junior brother made a mistake, but no matter what, he is still my junior brother. You can capture him, but you absolutely cannot kill him. Otherwise, we will not be able to get along."


    Hearing this, Lin Qi was so moved that he almost cried. In this world, besides his father, perhaps no one else would care about him this much.


    "Xiaoxiao, he has already been expelled from the sect, and is no longer your junior brother. Even if it was before, the people who followed him have all turned into ashes with his cultivation, and this person has become a useless person, I know that he has escaped now, but I will go to his house and capture his father, and force him to show himself. However, Xiaoxiao, you can rest assured, as long as he is obedient, I will not do anything to him."


    When Lin Qi heard his words, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart and feel murderous intent.


    Cang Xiao laughed, "You can''t. You are too despicable and despicable. I won''t allow you to do that."


    "Then let''s see if Xiao-Xiao can stop me." Shen Shan groaned.


    He stared at him for a moment before changing the topic. He asked, "Senior Brother Shen, if you don''t go and congratulate the Northern Tomb King, why are you still staying here?"


    "This man is too arrogant, he wants to kill people on the street. If Brother Shen did not stop him in time, he would have succeeded."


    Seventh Prince also jumped out and fiercely said, "That''s right, if it wasn''t for Brother Shen saving me, I would have already been decapitated. "Miss Cang, let''s see if you should kill this person."


    Shen Shan was silent as he watched all of this with a smile on his face.


    "Him?"


    Cang Xiao turned her gaze towards Lin Xing. Her heart trembled slightly and her expression could not help but change slightly. A peculiar glint flashed across her eyes.


    He then shifted his gaze onto Shen Shan and said in an extremely casual manner, "Senior Brother Shen, can you let me off this matter for my sake?"


    "How can I do that?" It''s not a good thing for such a vicious person to appear in our Star Origin Country. If we don''t kill him now, even more people will die. " Seventh Prince jumped up and shouted.


    Shen Shan pushed him back down and glanced at Lin Xing before shifting her gaze to Cang Xiaoxiao, "Since Xiaoxiao has already pleaded on his behalf, how could I not agree?"


    Then he took two steps forward and said with a smile, "Xiao-Xiao, come with me to congratulate the Northern Tomb King."


    "Alright." Cang Xiaoxiao said in an amiable manner after seeing him agree.


    Then, under the lead of Shen Shan, the group of them walked away. The Seventh Prince went to the front to lead the way, and before he left, he gave Lin Xing a fierce look and hinted to him that a person should follow Lin Xing.


    "Why aren''t you coming over?" After everyone had dispersed, Lin Xing coldly snapped at Cloudy Fox who was hiding in a corner.


    Like a child who had made a mistake, Cloudy Fox timidly walked over. He lowered his head and did not say a word, waiting for Lin Xing''s words.


    However, Lin Qi was not in the mood to berate her. He stared at the back view of the group of people as they left. He rubbed his chin, as if he was deep in thought.


    Soon after, he followed, and when Cloudy Fox saw his actions, he could not help but pout his mouth, feeling somewhat surprised. He did not expect Lin Xing to be so bold.


    However, at this moment, his heart was filled with doubt regarding Lin Xing''s origins. He had previously assumed that Lin Xing was a spy from the Giant Spirit Sect, but now he had overturned this belief.


    By the time Lin Xing rushed to the Prince''s Mansion, the sky had already turned completely dark. A bright moon hung in the sky, and red lanterns covered the entire entrance.


    Although it was night time, the number of people who came here increased without end. Many of them were people sent by large clans or large clans, and there were even servants carrying gifts behind them.


    There were not a single person at the entrance, but what was strange was that all of them were people who had come to congratulate them. However, not a single servant from the Palace of Northern Tombs went out to receive guests and receive gifts.


    The door was five meters wide and two meters tall, allowing a large group of people to enter at the same time. Many people squeezed in together, unwilling to fall behind.


    "Why is it that in such a large palace, there isn''t even a servant?" Cloudy Fox said with a strange expression.


    Lin Xing smiled and said, "That is because you do not know the Northern Tomb King. You are extremely wise and foolish. It is difficult for ordinary people to see through this person''s thoughts. "


    Cloudy Fox strongly agreed that a person who was able to enter the Heavenly Cauldron must not be based on ordinary theories.


    The most terrifying thing was that many of the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters had obtained the favor of the gods because of their exceptional talent, causing the descent of the Heavenly Cauldron. On the other hand, the Northern Tomb King had only advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage at the age of forty.


    To put it bluntly, if not for the Heaven Cauldron, no one would have noticed him even if he had advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    "I would really like to meet this Heavenly Cauldron Monster." I shall witness the glory of the Great Honored Warrior in advance. " Cloudy Fox was eager to give it a try with a face full of anticipation.


    "Let''s go."


    Lin Qi looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, and immediately released his boundless nether energy, sweeping towards that area and crushing it.


    The nether energy was as swift as the wind and as domineering as thunder. It was chilling to the heart when it touched a tiny bit, directly piercing into one''s soul as if it was blown by a cold wind.


    Everyone retreated in shock. The masked figure had a face of terror. The entire arena was incomparably silent as he automatically opened up a path for Lin Xing to walk through.


    This was an expert from the Nether Sect. They had long since heard of his ruthlessness, so they were afraid.


    Even some of the Dao Seeking experts were stunned. They had no intention of starting a war with Lin Xing.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing and Yun Hu calmly walked into the residence.


    A large area of land within the mansion was covered with dense vegetation that was like a small forest. It had not been pruned for many years, and many doors were covered with dust and spider webs. There was no one living inside.


    Obviously, in this enormous palace, only the Northern Tomb King resided here.

 C95

    As they passed through the wilderness of the mansion and followed the stream of people, Lin Xing and Yun Hu arrived in front of an empty jade platform.


    The high platform was as new as a piece of crystal clear. The moonlight reflected off it seemed to be able to emit light and heat. There was not a single speck of dust on it. It was obvious that it had just been recently built.


    The place where the high platform stood was where the Northern Tomb King had activated the Heaven Cauldron three months ago. The king had ordered someone to build a jade platform here to welcome him with a grand ceremony, revealing the importance he placed on the Northern Tomb King.


    On the stage, the gray-robed Beiling King stood proudly as he received the admiration of countless people around him. He was about forty years old, and his appearance was somewhat slovenly.


    At the back of the high platform, there was no one there, but there was a layer of light covering the ground in a semicircle. Every five or six meters, there was a weapon or divine medicine on the ground, and as long as one was not blind, they would be able to see those extraordinary items.


    The people closest to the high platform were all the chief disciples of the various sects. From there, Lin Xing saw Cang Xiao, Shen Shan and a group of people. Furthermore, he also discovered a white-clothed youth.


    The appearance of Yun Chi here had indeed exceeded Lin Qi''s expectations. It seemed that under such circumstances, the Yin Master School would have to send someone to congratulate this Heavenly Cauldron freak. Even if they could not win him over, they could not offend him.


    He scanned the surroundings, but didn''t find anyone from the Giant Spirit Sect. In fact, Giant Spirit was a Heavenly Cauldron monster. Normally, he would also send someone to congratulate them. However, in this situation, they couldn''t afford to be distracted. Thus, he just laughed it off for the Beiling King.


    When Cloudy Fox noticed Yun Chi''s body, his eyes were filled with fear and respect. His delicate body couldn''t help but tremble three times. Subconsciously, he grabbed onto the corner of Lin Qi''s clothes and tightened his grip.


    Yun Chi seemed to have sensed something and turned his head to look behind him. His gaze locked onto Yun Hu''s body.


    Immediately, he lowered his voice and said, "Cloud Fox, come here."


    The tone was extremely unyielding, as if it was an order.


    When his words left his mouth, many people shifted their gazes away from the Northern Tomb King and towards Lin Xing and Yun Hu.


    Seeing this scene, Seventh Prince first sneered, because he realized that Yun Chi''s tone wasn''t very friendly, it was more accurate to say that he was scolding.


    Yun Hu''s expression changed, but he did not immediately reply. Instead, he looked at Lin Qi, as if asking for instructions.


    When Yun Chi saw this, his brows immediately furrowed. His eyes became colder and colder, as if he was shooting two rays of sharp light at the man wearing the ghost mask.


    "Go ahead. If there''s a chance, I will help you cure the poison." Lin Xing said in a low voice, his tone calm.


    Yun Hu shrunk his wrinkled wrists, bitterly nodded his head, and walked towards Yun Chi.


    Lin Xing saw that Yun Hu had just walked in front of Yun Chi, who grabbed her by the neck and pushed her down, saying in a low voice, "It''s been a few days since we last met, and you''re not even going to listen to what I say?"


    Everyone was moved, Yun Chi was too cold-blooded, he did not have any intention of showing mercy to the fairer sex, and was extremely furious, but because of Yun Chi''s powerful cultivation, no one dared to step forward.


    Cloudy Fox nodded pitifully. Two drops of tears fell from the corners of his eyes and landed on the ground with a bang.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing''s gaze turned cold. The murderous intent he had towards Yun Chi grew even stronger.


    Cloudy Fox had suffered such grievances because of him, so he felt inexplicably guilty and a little uncomfortable.


    "Today is the day that I will return from the Heavenly Cauldron. I do not wish to see anyone feeling wronged in my residence. If you have any business, please go outside and cause trouble."


    Standing on the high platform, the amiable expression of the Beiling King disappeared and was replaced with an ice-cold expression. Looking at the pitiful appearance of the Cloud Fox, it seemed as if his heart was moved with sympathy.


    He might not be envious of evil, but if he met with an injustice, he would certainly interfere. Moreover, right now, it was his territory, so who would not say anything?


    Yun Chi knew that it was impolite so he unhurriedly released the hand that was holding onto Yun Hu''s neck and swung his hand. After that, he raised his head and smiled apologetically at the Northern Tomb King: "This one is impolite. Please do not blame the Northern Tomb King."


    "There won''t be a next time. Otherwise, please leave immediately." The Northern Tomb King said with a deep voice.


    He swept his gaze across everyone one by one, then returned to his amiable smile. He cupped his hands towards the people around him and said, "Many thanks to everyone for congratulating me for being honoured to enter the Heavenly Cauldron. I am eternally grateful.


    After pausing for a moment, he pointed to the white and boundless space within the barrier, and said: "Everyone has been kind enough to gift me something, I will naturally pay you back with gifts, and give you some back, this is an array formation, and it contains a lot of the treasures I brought back from the Heavenly Cauldron, those who are confident in their abilities can enter it to retrieve their treasures."


    "What?! That''s really a treasure that I brought back from the Heavenly Cauldron."


    "Heavens, no wonder he''s so extraordinary."


    "This is actually the first time I''ve seen something that can be taken out of the Heavenly Cauldron."


    Everyone was moved and widened their eyes. After all, not everyone was qualified to see the treasures of the Heavenly Cauldron. Each and every one of them was a rare treasure.


    Even if some freaks brought back something from the Heaven Furnace, they would keep it for themselves to enjoy. They wouldn''t treat others as part of their family. But he didn''t expect that the king would be so generous as to place the treasure on the ground and set up a formation, allowing others to take it.


    Yun Chi, Shen Shan and the other geniuses from the great sects could not help but have their expressions change. Their eyes shined brightly, revealing their joy and excitement.


    Especially for prodigies like them, the Heavenly Cauldron was their dream, but they were unable to enter because of regret. They were extremely curious about the inner world, and now that the Northern Tomb King had returned with so many treasures and was ready to selflessly offer them up, how could they not be excited?


    But looking at the Northern Tomb King''s confident appearance, it made them somewhat bewildered and uncertain. That formation looked simple on the surface, but it was actually extremely profound. Every part of it contained a profound mystery.


    With just this bit of eyesight, Shen Shan, Yun Chi and the rest did have it.


    He temporarily suppressed the greed in his heart and stared thoughtfully at the white and boundless field as he tried to think of a way to break through the formation.


    The expression on Lin Qi''s face, which was hidden behind the mask, was also shocked. The personality of the Northern Tomb King was extremely strange, just like a beast race. No one could guess what was on his mind.


    Even the wisest Ye Feihua that Lin Qi had ever seen could not figure it out.


    "Is what you said true, King of Northern Tombs? "We can take any treasure we want from that cauldron."


    After all, there were people who were unable to hold back their temper and led the way up the platform, staring at the Northern Tomb King''s dao.


    "It''s true. I can give it a try, regardless of your cultivation base." The Northern Tomb King replied cordially.

 C96

    The one who ascended the platform was a young man who was at the Dao Seeking stage. He wore tight black robes and held a three foot long blade in his hand. His entire body was suffused with a green luster and a faint rune flow.


    After obtaining a precise answer, with a face full of ecstasy, he jumped off the platform. Carrying the three-foot-long green mountain, he rushed into the white barrier.


    The king of the Northern Tombs stared at this scene with a smile, indifferent and full of spirit.


    Everyone was also looking in that direction with rapt attention, paying attention to the black-clothed youth''s every move.


    Lin Dong''s eyes shone brightly as he closely observed the scene. A trace of surprise flashed under his eyes.


    The formation was invisible, and apart from the Heavenly Cauldron treasure and the vast expanse of white, there was nothing else to be seen. After the black robed youth rushed in, he did not see anything around him that could attack him.


    The long sword was turned around and the sword qi was surging. A divine art was suddenly unleashed. Suddenly, a huge green light fell from the sky.


    Sparks flew all over the place as the muffled thunders exploded, but nothing could be seen attacking the black-clothed youth. He seemed to have gone crazy as he continued chopping at the ground. Soon after, he was drenched in sweat.


    "According to the location of the treasures in the cauldron, this is only the first stage. He has already activated a divine art."


    Everyone was emotionally moved as they stared fixedly at the black-clothed youth.


    Other than the people who entered, no one else was able to see what was inside the barrier, much less know what kind of frightening thing was inside.


    However, looking at that black-clothed youth''s strenuous appearance, it was likely that there was nothing good in the array formation.


    Tap Tap...


    Veins popped out on the black-clothed youth''s forehead as he used a lot of effort to slash out with his sword. Then, he could no longer withstand it, as if a tremendous force had bounced him off the white barrier.


    Although he was sweating profusely and his skin was flushed red due to the explosive force, he was not injured. He was just a bit tired and wiped the bean-sized sweat off his face. Then, he bowed towards the Northern Tomb King and walked back into the crowd with a gloomy expression.


    A large group of people immediately surrounded him and started asking all at once, but his face remained sullen the entire time, not saying a single word. In the end, everyone tactfully shut up and bitterly left.


    Lin Qi cast a sidelong glance at his black face, shaking his head in fear. To be able to cause such a great trauma to the soul of a cultivator of the Dao Reaching Realm, the items within must be terrifying.


    "Who else is willing to give it a try? Anyone who can clear the entire trial can take away all the treasures." The Northern Tomb King said with a slightly enticing tone. His face was filled with anticipation.


    His words caused a commotion among the crowd. The next moment, another person jumped up onto the stage and went straight for the stage.


    He was also a Demigod, and his power seemed to be on par with that of the black-robed youth from earlier.


    The outcome was without a doubt. Even though he lost, he took one more step forward than the black-clothed youth. He was one step closer to reaching the first treasure.


    Then, five to six geniuses from different sects appeared one after another, all returning in defeat. They gloomily walked back to their original spots, like the black-clothed youth, and didn''t make a sound.


    In the end, an expert at the peak of the realm appeared on the stage. His cultivation base was higher than everyone before him, and he had expended a tremendous amount of effort just to obtain the first treasure.


    After obtaining the first treasure, he looked forward with a face full of trepidation. He turned around and walked out without looking back. He did not have the courage or stamina to try and break through again.


    What he took out was a divine medicine. It was shaped like a white rabbit and was as white as snow. It was like sparkling snowflakes that accumulated together. It was crystal clear and pure.


    When they saw him walk out complacently with the treasure in his hand, everyone''s pupils suddenly contracted. Their feverish eyes were filled with greed and coveting. If it weren''t for the large number of people present, many of them would have already taken action to snatch it away.


    The person who took the first treasure turned around and thanked the Northern Tomb King. Under the coveting gazes of the surrounding people, he remained calm and didn''t immediately leave. Instead, he calmly stared at the formation.


    Although it cannot increase one''s cultivation, it has the effect of perpetuating one''s appearance. At that time, I was in the Heavenly Cauldron, and because I was being chased by a group of young women every day, I was battered and exhausted because of it. I fled for my life every day, and in the end, I handed over two flower petals.


    Thinking of this matter, the Northern Tomb King shook his head with a bitter smile. Those days of being hunted did indeed mean that he''d suffered a lot.


    "Celestial Moon Flower, your appearance will forever remain."


    After finding out that this flower could not increase his cultivation, a clear look of disappointment flashed across his face, but the next sentence from the Northern Tomb King immediately caused him to be ecstatic and excited.


    An eternal beauty, just what kind of heaven-defying effect was this! It was almost unheard-of.


    Even if he could not directly refine it to increase his cultivation, he could take it out and auction it off at a high price, and at the highest price, he could know with just his ass that it would be an astronomical price. With that money, he could buy large amounts of miraculous medicines and could also be considered to have indirectly increased wealth and cultivation.


    Everyone was extremely shocked as they stared at the Immortal Moon Flower. Many of them were secretly rubbing their fists and palms, and could not help but move closer to it.


    Especially those females. They let out earth-shaking screams. They were so excited that they couldn''t help themselves. They directly threw flirtatious glances at that person, hoping to get a small piece of broken leaf.


    That person immediately held the Immortal Moon Flower in his arms. At the same time, seven to eight Dao Seeking experts rushed in and surrounded him. They had all come prepared, so most people immediately gave up on the idea of seizing it.


    Speaking of which, if there was such a heaven defying divine medicine in the first stage, then wouldn''t the other seven be even more heaven defying?


    Perhaps even the elixir of life might appear, but that was not necessarily the case.


    However, the first stage had already made so many Dao-splitting cultivators cower in fear, and the second stage had scared off a peak Dao Realm cultivator. The next seven stages were probably more difficult than the first one, and even if one was in the Heaven Smiting stage, it would still be very difficult to obtain all the treasures.


    "Let me try."


    At this moment, Yun Chi stepped onto the stage, his head held high and chest puffed up, he had the aura of someone who could sweep the world.


    "Alright, please give it a try." The Northern Tomb King looked at him with great interest. Finally, a figure that he could take seriously had appeared. The corner of his mouth hooked into a warm smile.


    Yun Chi slightly nodded his head, the eyes of the group of Dark Dwellers following him all flashed with interest. As the head disciple of the Yin Master School, Yun Chi''s cultivation level was naturally higher than others'' since he had already stepped into the Heaven Smiting Stage three years ago.


    Lin Qi looked over with a cold expression, but his eyes didn''t show much emotion. Sooner or later, the head disciples of these great sects would come on stage.


    "Brother Shen, if you still don''t take action, the treasures here will be taken by someone else."


    For the first time, a serious expression appeared in Arc''s eyes. He could clearly sense that Yun Chi was very strong and very dangerous.


    "No rush, no rush." If he can take all of them away, I will let him take them. " Shen Shan said casually with a nonchalant attitude.

 C97

    Yun Chi stepped onto the stage, striding like a dragon and striding like a tiger with an imposing appearance. He instantly attracted everyone''s attention. He was young, but he had strength, and his nether energy surged. He was extremely extraordinary.


    Then, he jumped into the white formation. The first stage treasure had already been taken away, and even the formation had disappeared. As a result, that area was like an empty space. Without any resistance, he directly jumped to the second stage.


    The formation within the second stage caused a peak Dao Seeking expert to be scared off. The moment Yun Chi stepped into it, his expression changed.


    With a solemn expression, he held his breath and a huge energy was instantly released from his palms. He then threw them out and two dark black spheres of light suddenly appeared in the air.


    Before the ball of light could get within half a meter, an earth-shattering explosion occurred, creating layers of shockwaves. Because there was a barrier blocking the shockwave, it couldn''t spread out.


    Yun Chi was obviously prepared. He had formed a barrier in front of him a moment ago. Even though the damage from the explosion was huge, he was completely unharmed.


    After the aftermath completely dissipated, he removed the barrier in front of him and calmly took three steps forward.


    After three steps, he stopped and did the same thing as before. He continued to use the dark energy balls. After the explosion ended, he continued to push forward.


    After a while, he took nine steps and was only one step away from the treasure. However, when he walked up to this point, his face was covered in sweat. activating the dark energy every time consumed a lot of physical strength.


    "Brother He, why did you retreat without fighting when you just entered the second stage? What exactly is inside?"


    Someone asked the person who obtained the Immortal Moon Flower with widened eyes.


    Under everyone''s gaze, that person''s face carried a hint of fear, and he said with a slightly desperate tone, "I saw a tall mountain made of refined iron."


    Everyone inhaled a breath of cold air. If there really was a mountain made of refined iron blocking their way, it would make them feel desperate. Even someone of the Heaven Smiting Stage was no exception.


    Lin Qi revealed a strange expression. He lifted his right hand to rub his chin. Yun Chi immediately used the most violent method to blow up that iron mountain into fine powder and then pushed it forward.


    Following that, just like before, he destroyed Tie Shan who was standing in front of him at the end, and obtained a treasure.


    It was a simple and unadorned gavel about two feet long. It was simple and unadorned, and it looked very hard and boring.


    Upon seeing Yun Chi obtaining the treasure, he was actually happy for him from the bottom of his heart. He explained with a smile: "This is a Withering Thunder Hammer, I am not too sure exactly what the material was used to refine it, but its power is great, able to attract lightning. I have used it to push back three people at the same time."


    "Hiss ¡­"


    The entire audience was in an uproar as the sounds of cold air being sucked in rose and fell.


    To simultaneously repel three Heaven Smiting Stage experts, this weapon was even more heaven-defying than the Immortal Moon Flower.


    Even his body was trembling as he stared at the weapon in Yun Chi''s hand. His pupils slowly contracted.


    Shen Shan also withdrew his smile and put on a calm expression as he stared at that direction.


    Yun Chi kept the small wooden mallet into his soul hole and channeled his nether energy. The sweat on his face immediately evaporated and he took a deep breath as he walked towards the third trial.


    In the third trial, Yun Chi changed his attack methods and took out a soul sail. He released a large amount of ghosts and let them bite through it.


    The entire soul sail was eerie, and from it endless streams of resentful ghosts that were floating in the air were coming out. It was extremely terrifying.


    These were all people he had killed before. He poured his soul into the soul sail and then refined it into a malicious spirit. The greater the resentment, the more powerful the power. Some of them even grinned at the people outside the barrier.


    Seeing this scene, most of the people were expressionless. They didn''t find it strange that people from the underworld sects were always like this, and there were also some Gods who were more cold-blooded than the underworld sects. In this world where the strong preyed on the weak, no one would sympathize with the weak.


    The kind-hearted King Beiling shook his head with a wry smile. His face revealed a look of helplessness as he felt sorrow and pity for the group of ghosts.


    Lin Qi gently closed his eyes and then suddenly opened them. His pupils were like ice and frost and his killing intent surged. Among these ghost, a portion of them were the innocent people of the Green Silver Country.


    Calming himself down, he lifted his eyelids and looked towards Yun Chi coldly. He saw Yun Chi releasing a large number of ghost spirits, crazily biting and devouring them, as if he had just seen a fresh delicacy.


    A large number of ghosts were at the front clearing away the obstacles, but Yun Chi seemed to be in a desolate area as he leisurely walked out, as if he was taking a walk in his own backyard.


    One step, two steps, three steps ¡­


    At this moment, he was only a step away from the treasure of the third stage. And judging from his appearance, he was much more relaxed compared to the second stage.


    A complacent smile appeared on Yun Chi''s face, he did not forget to stretch his body, and then he walked towards the treasure.


    Suddenly, a large amount of golden light shot out from that direction. It was incomparably dazzling and as resplendent as gold, causing Yun Chi''s complacent smile to instantly disappear. In the blink of an eye, his expression greatly changed.


    What was surprising was that the people on the outside could not see what was inside, but the bright golden light could be clearly seen. Some people had puzzled faces, while others were squinting their eyes to look at the king.


    The king of the Northern Tombs watched everything with a smile from start to finish, not saying a word.


    When the ghosts touched the golden light, they let out miserable howls, and disappeared into the golden light. After a short while, they turned into dust.


    With his ghost destroyed, Yun Chi suffered a backlash, his face instantly turned pale, as though his flesh and blood had been sucked dry, his entire body was retracting slightly, looking quite miserable.


    As a result, he was unable to bring out his nether spiritual energy in a short period of time. However, looking at the third treasure that was within his reach, he was unwilling to let it go, so he took a step forward.


    Just as he approached the golden light, it did not submerge him. Instead, it rebounded his body and caused him to fly out of the barrier.


    Yun Chi shakily stabilized his body, and then with a step on the ground, he jumped up onto the stage.


    "Northern Tomb King, you actually cheated, and even destroyed the ghosts that I refined with all my effort."


    His face was ashen as he pointed at the Northern Tomb King with anger filling his chest, gnashing his teeth.


    Without even thinking, one could tell that the golden light was caused by the Northern Tomb King.


    If he hadn''t interrupted him at the last moment to secretly urge out that golden light, the third treasure would have been within his reach. Moreover, what pained him even more was that he had lost a large amount of ghosts that he had refined with his blood and sweat.

 C98

    "I can''t bear it anymore. I don''t want those ghosts to never be at peace again."


    The Northern Tomb King restrained his smile and answered indifferently without making any excuse.


    "Hmph, do you know how much effort I put in to refine those ghosts into this form? You must give me the treasures from the third realm as compensation." Yun Chi sneered and clenched his fists at the same time.


    He had been in the Heaven Smiting Realm for many years, and was an established character in the Heaven Smiting Realm. Even if the Northern Tomb King was a freak with the heavenly tribulation, if they were to fight, it was unknown who would win.


    As for the formation, it was clearly created by special runes and then maintained by a large amount of Spiritual Energy. Although the Northern Tomb King could control it as he wished, it was clearly not practical to use it against an enemy.


    Hearing Yun Chi''s words, everyone could not help but roll their eyes, including the group of Dark Dwellers that followed him, but they did not dare to show it.


    Of course, if Yun Chi could obtain another treasure, his strength would increase by a step and the group of Dark Dwellers would be happy as well.


    The Northern Tomb King couldn''t help but shake his head and smile bitterly, as if he was amused by Yun Chi''s words.


    His tone was indifferent as he said, "Sure, but you have to exchange for the treasure of the second stage."


    "What? Are you kidding me? I want both. " Yun Chi said angrily.


    "Are you joking? Do you really think that with my good nature, you can bully me? " The Northern Tomb King''s face suddenly turned cold, and the surrounding temperature plummeted. His eyes were as sharp as swords as he said in a deep voice, "Remember, this is the Xing Yuan Country of the Dancing Sky Sect, not your Yin Sect."


    "What Royal Uncle said is right. A human''s heart is not worth swallowing an elephant. For you to obtain a treasure, it was also bestowed upon you by my Royal Uncle. Don''t not know what''s good for you, and think clearly about your situation." Prince Seven raised his head and coldly echoed.


    Not only him, even You You, Cang Xiaoxiao and the rest had faces full of indignation. Yun Chi was too greedy.


    Just as Seventh Prince had said, he was able to obtain a treasure because of the favor of the Northern Tomb King. If they continued to argue, he was afraid that he wouldn''t even be able to obtain a treasure.


    "Yun Chi is truly arrogant to the extreme. As a member of the Netherworld Sect, I feel ashamed for you. I''ll have to trouble you to hurry up and leave, so that you won''t be making fun of on the high platform. "


    Lin Qi said, deliberately making things difficult for Yun Zuiyue. He felt displeased the moment he saw him.


    Upon hearing this, Yun Chi''s face immediately darkened. Following his prestige, he turned toward the figure wearing the ghost mask. Killing intent raged outside his body as he locked onto Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi laughed lightly and hooked a finger at him, provoking him.


    "Hmph ¡­"


    The Northern Tomb King''s muffled voice was like thunder, dispersing all of Yun Chi''s killing intent. He said coldly: "What he said was exactly what I wanted to say. Do you dare to kill people here? As long as I give the order, are these chief disciples of the Skysplit Sect going to help you or me? I promise you, you won''t get out alive. "


    Yun Chi was jolted awake, his expression incomparably cold. He glared at Lin Xing as if he was a venomous snake, desperately trying to calm himself down. Then, without a word, he withdrew his gaze and walked down the stage.


    After returning to his original spot, he did not leave. Instead, he stood there and stared coldly at the Northern Tomb King.


    The Northern Tomb King changed his attire. As Yun Chi left the stage, the unhappiness on his face was swept away and replaced with a warm smile.


    He cupped his hands and said apologetically, "Please do not take my displeasure from before to heart. I will treat it as a pleasure. Next, please continue to challenge the trial. Is there any other great genius who is willing to try?"


    When he heard the two words "playful", Yun Chi''s expression became even more gloomy, as if black water was dripping out of it. His gaze was incomparably cold and stern, causing the cloud fox beside him to uncontrollably shiver.


    "Let me do it."


    He walked out in large strides, then he ascended the platform step by step. He was filled with confidence as he stood there proudly.


    Although many people did not recognize him, the Heaven Smiting Divine Energy that was not weaker than Yun Chi still radiated from his body, causing many people''s faces to continuously change as they tried to guess his identity.


    "Oh? "May I ask who you are?" The Northern Tomb King looked at him with interest as a dignified expression flashed past his eyes.


    "Greetings to the Northern Tomb King. I am You You, from Sikong Zhaixing." Although Arc Tour was even more arrogant than Yun Chi, his manners were quite polite. He immediately won the goodwill of a large group of people.


    The Northern Tomb King smiled and nodded, praising: "No wonder he is so handsome, it turns out he is a genius from Sikong Zong. Speaking of Sikong Zong, he is the same as us, who are also part of the Divine Arts Faction."


    The enthusiasm of the Northern Tomb King made him unable to endure it any longer. He nodded with an embarrassed smile: "Yes, yes. Can I pass the test now? "


    "Of course you can. Please, congratulations in advance on obtaining the treasure." The Northern Tomb King said with a smile.


    When Arc Swallow heard these words, he hastened his steps and waved his arm before jumping into the formation.


    The first two trials had ended because the treasures were taken away, so the formation disappeared and he arrived at the third trial. The golden light had completely disappeared, leaving behind only a vast expanse of white.


    He took a step forward and at the same time, his right arm quickly rotated. Not long after, it formed a whirlpool, attracting the huge suction force and causing the outer barrier to deform slightly.


    "This Senior Brother You You is truly not simple." Below the stage, Cang Xiao praised.


    "Yeah, he''s the number two genius in Sikong Zhaixing. He was only below that person. If that person did not enter the Heavenly Cauldron and thus obtained a great opportunity, you might have surpassed him." Shen Shan, who was beside her, lightly sighed.


    Senior brother Shen is too simple. Since that person is able to enter the Sky Cauldron, it does not mean that he is relying on luck. Moreover, I have also heard that that person has established a great reputation within the Sky Cauldron. Cang Xiao said with a smile.


    Hearing this, Shen Shan gently closed his eyes. His face was bitter and unwilling. The fist hidden in his sleeves was clenched even harder than steel.


    At the same time, everyone''s gazes were locked onto You You. They wanted to see what ability this genius from Sikong Zhaixing had.


    His right arm quickly turned and a huge suction force came from there, pulling everything in front of him into his sleeves. It was like a divine art, his movements seemed rough and simple, but they were extremely profound. In the blink of an eye, he appeared at the end of the third stage, just inches away from the treasure.


    His strength was deep and unpredictable. Passing the third trial was even easier than breaking through the clouds.


    Finally, he retracted his right arm, shrugged his shoulders, and happily picked up the third treasure from the ground.


    There was a small crack at the edge, and it seemed as if there was something hidden inside. After looking around happily for a bit, he returned to his soul cave and continued to walk towards the fourth trial.

 C99

    The fourth test changed the attacking style and used another invention. However, the one used this time was very different from the one used in the third test. The third test was to absorb the energy but the invention used in the fourth test was pushed out.


    It was as if a sharp sword had erupted from his body. A tiny stream of air entered the air and then instantly enlarged, causing the stream of air to rewind and refract in the air one after another.


    The explosion was earth-shaking. Even the people outside couldn''t help but be stupefied. Some even covered their ears, and the ones with weaker cultivations had a splitting headache.


    After temporarily blocking the sound with his cultivation, he shifted his gaze to Arc Swamp in the protective barrier. He strode forward in large strides, as if he were a dragon. He appeared to be uninhabited and very relaxed.


    However, just as he walked halfway, the airflow he released was blocked by something. He wrinkled his brows and groaned. He then mobilized an even greater force to sweep forward.


    However, the force that struck forward was like a clay ox sinking into the ocean. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to advance a single step forward.


    At the same time, his face was covered in cold sweat. His complexion was a bit purple and he was feeling quite tired. From how he walked on flat ground to how he walked on thin ice, all of this happened in the blink of an eye. He had encountered an insurmountable chasm.


    After that, surging God Power surged out from his body and transformed into a huge black sharp sword.


    That sharp sword seemed to have come from the ancient times, and it brimmed with an ancient aura. It was heavy, simple, and extremely divine. With a loud shout, it struck forward with a ton of damage.


    When the people outside the screen saw this scene, their faces all changed, including Shen Shan and the Northern Tomb King both had serious expressions on their faces. This Wanderer was clearly risking his life to activate a Divine Technique.


    From the looks of this divine art, its power was infinitely close to that of the Supreme Realm secret art. It was extremely terrifying and extraordinary.


    "Heaven Descending Sword."


    Lin Xing stared fixedly at this scene. His lips moved as he muttered to himself. He recognized this godly technique.


    Sikong Zhaixing and Sky Sect shared the same origin, therefore, there was also this godly technique. Only the Chief Disciple had the qualifications to learn it, Lin Xing had also learned it before, and later on he felt that this technique was too useless, so he gave it up.


    Although it was extremely powerful, the aftereffects were very significant. It was very easy to drain the flesh from one''s body and then become a corpse. If the sound was too loud, it would be very easy for the enemy to dodge.


    And when he used this technique at this moment, it was clear that there was a huge gap in front of him that could be used to shake it.


    However, even though he had spent a lot of strength, he couldn''t shake the thing in front of him even though he had activated a divine technique which was close to the Darchu secret technique. Moreover he reflected a huge elastic force which pushed him out of the array.


    "Impossible ¡­"


    Arisaema was stunned on the spot. His face was filled with confusion and shock, as well as unwillingness. As a result of this, he roared out three times. His fists were clenched to the point that they were harder than steel.


    Many people sighed. Originally full of confidence, Sikong Zhaixing''s genius was stuck in the fourth stage, unable to enter even a single inch. In his heart, he thought it was impossible for him to not be disappointed.


    The Northern Tomb King still had a smile on his face as he looked at this scene, gentle but without sympathy.


    He said softly, "If you want to completely pass through this formation, not even some freaks within the Heavenly Cauldron will be able to do it, so you don''t have to be discouraged."


    "Really?" Arisaema took a deep breath. Upon hearing these words, his heart unavoidably felt much more balanced.


    After the Northern Tomb King nodded with a smile, he still walked back to his original place somewhat unwillingly, and stood at the place where the disciples of the Dancing Sky Sect were.


    "Brother Shen, it''s time for you to give it a try." Arc wandered back to that place, stood side by side with Shen Yi, and said to him.


    When he said that, everyone turned to look, only Shen Shan, the Heaven Smiting Stage powerhouse did not make an appearance, many people were looking forward to his performance, especially the female disciples beside him, who were dancing with joy and were looking at him with infatuated eyes.


    Who would''ve thought that Shen Shan still said calmly: "No rush, no rush, let the others break through first, I''ll be at the back."


    "Senior-apprentice Brother Shen is truly funny. He hasn''t even passed Senior Brother You You You in these four stages. Do you think anyone else would be able to pass?" Cang Xiao narrowed her eyes as she stared at him, a glint of light flickering in her eyes.


    "Is it really gone?" "Then I''ll ¡­" Shen Shan''s eyes slightly squinted, slowly spitting out these words. But halfway through his sentence, he was interrupted by a youth''s voice.


    "I''ll do it!"


    The moment that voice was heard, it attracted everyone''s gazes. They looked at the ghost mask on the person''s face, and then examined their cultivation. Everyone was shaking their heads, and mocking laughter rang out.


    "You?"


    He was the first to laugh, his face full of mockery. Moreover, it was a bit cold, and there was a hint of killing intent, and as he looked at this masked man, anger and hatred filled his heart, he couldn''t even pass the fourth trial.


    Standing next to him, Cloudy Fox''s eyes flashed with surprise. She had never seen through this masked man before. He was just like the Northern Tomb King; perhaps he could create a miracle.


    At the scene, there was another person who saw Lin Qi. Two rays of golden light shot out from his eyes, filling the depths of his eyes. He was firm and confident, and the more he thought about it, the faster his expression changed.


    "It would be embarrassing to go up if he doesn''t know his place." The Seventh Prince scoffed. He had a grudge with Lin Xing, so he naturally had to seize this opportunity to scold him.


    "Since he intends to pass, let him go. I''m also curious about his capabilities. " Shen Shan faintly smiled and said.


    "Brother Shen is right. Let him go. He brought shame upon himself." He knew better than anyone how terrifying the fourth stage was. He had expected Lin Xing, who was at the Dao Division realm, to not even last three seconds inside.


    Under countless disdainful gazes, Lin Xing walked up to them. He looked calm and composed, and every step he took brought him to a higher level. His mood was not affected in the slightest as he came to the high platform.


    "May I ask who this is ¡­"


    Staring at the young figure wearing a ghost mask, a surprised look flashed across the Northern Tomb King''s eyes. He gently laughed and said, without a hint of disdain.


    "Me? I am a rogue cultivator of the underworld. "


    Lin Qi pointed to his nose, then cupped his hands towards the Northern Tomb King and replied indifferently.


    "Hehe, your underworld wandering cultivator is not ordinary."


    As if noticing something, the Northern Tomb King had a strange expression as he pointed out.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing''s heart chilled. On the surface, he maintained a calm expression, but he did not say anything. He leaped off the high platform and walked into the vast white arena.

 C100

    After Lin Qi rushed into the array, he directly arrived at the fourth trial. After he exited the Arc Roar, everything returned to how it was before.


    Looking at the pile of boulders in front of him, Lin Xing furrowed his brows. His expression was not looking too good.


    Each of the huge rocks was ten meters tall, and there were different kinds of beast markings carved on them. Some of them looked as if they were real, while others looked as if they were real.


    This was a huge rock formation. As Lin Xing walked in, the scene behind him immediately changed. There was another large group of boulders and they were all constantly moving.


    He had just taken the second step when he hesitated for a moment. Then, he withdrew it and carefully observed the surrounding boulders'' movement patterns and routes.


    "If he doesn''t dare to pass the trial, the Northern Tomb King would ask you to blast him out. Don''t just occupy the latrine pit and waste time."


    Seeing Lin Xing''s frightened expression, some people sneered in contempt. Even after a quarter of an hour had passed, Lin Xing still hadn''t moved an inch. He just stood there in a daze. Could it be that he wanted to wait for the giant rock to automatically erode?


    The Beiling King retracted his smile. The person who did not make a sound also stared blankly at Lin Qi with an expectant expression.


    At this moment, Lin Xing moved. At the same time, he pulled out his blade from his soul hole and charged into the group of boulders in front of him.


    His path was very strange and he moved like lightning. From the outside, he was able to travel half the distance in the blink of an eye, but the stone in front of him was also cut apart by his blade.


    He found the flaw in the movement of the huge rock and used his fastest speed to pass through it. With the smallest strength and price, he slashed open the huge rock blocking his path. It was not like using Arc Swamp to directly push the divine power horizontally. That kind of method was clearly not something that could be done with effort. Lin Xing was unwilling to do so.


    He stopped when he got there. He looked at the black shadow in front of him and felt his scalp tingle. It was a wall created by countless boulders. It was probably blocked by this strong force earlier on.


    He opened his eyes and tried to run up, but just as he jumped two or three meters away from the wall, another wall appeared above his head, blocking his path and forcing him to give up.


    He landed on the ground once more and stopped moving. Then, three black lanterns appeared in front of his chest. They burned with ice-cold flames, creating a dazzling white light.


    Previously, when he had been stuck in this place, it seemed that his divine strength was useless. Moreover, this stone wall was even harder than steel, and it was immeasurably thick, so he couldn''t use brute force.


    "Immortal qi!"


    Everyone exclaimed in unison, their faces filled with disbelief. They were completely shocked.


    They were not shocked by the immortal energy, but rather by the fact that Lin Xing possessed both the power of netherworld and immortal energy. To them, this was an unprecedented event, simply inconceivable.


    "Interesting." He had not even heard of cultivation of both celestial and nether energies before. He had seen a weirdo who cultivated both nether energies and divine energy in the Heavenly Cauldron, and was considered one of the most outstanding talents among the peerless geniuses of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Both the God Power and the nether energy would not reject it, but if it were to be refined at the same time and stored in the body, it would waste a lot of energy and blood, but it was not impossible. On the other hand, cultivating both celestial energy and netherworld spiritual energy was unprecedented and unheard-of.


    "It really is celestial qi." You You and Shen Shan were also shocked.


    The camera turned back to the array formation. After Lin Xing activated the immortal qi, the white light shined onto it and the stone walls turned into dust layer by layer. Then it disappeared along with the wind.


    Looking at the open space in front of him and locking onto the treasure of the fourth stage, a smile appeared on Lin Qi''s face. With a smile, he dashed forward and picked up the treasure.


    It was a gray colored pill about the size of a palm. The fragrance of the pill was refreshing and would make one feel refreshed just by smelling it. Moreover, the four strands of energy that had been in his body for a long time had actually jumped.


    Without guessing, it was obvious that this pill had the effect of increasing one''s cultivation. As if he had obtained a precious treasure, he carefully placed it in a corner of the soul hole.


    "Impossible, impossible ¡­"


    He had not even passed the fourth stage of the Heaven Smiting Stage, so how could he possibly pass the fourth stage?


    Anger and unwillingness surged in his heart. He turned his head towards the Northern Tomb King, suspecting that he had deliberately let him go.


    The Northern Tomb King naturally noticed the malicious gaze and immediately said with a smile: "Could it be that everyone thinks that I am pulling my leg? I would like to ask, I am not related to this person, why did I help him? The reason why he was able to pass the fourth trial was because of the immortal energy. Although the stone wall was part of the formation, it was left behind by the ancient gods, and had been eroded by the rain and wind for a long time. Even though it is still tough, it has undergone a qualitative change.


    When everyone heard this, they pondered for a moment. Some of them still had an unconvinced look on their faces.


    "Does that mean he''s relying on immortal qi for his trial? Hmph hmph, immortal qi is not omnipotent, so I want to see if he can still use it after going down stage. " Even though Seventh Prince hated Lin Qi, he was the Northern Tomb King''s nephew. At this moment, he had to step out and smooth things over.


    Arisaema unwillingly nodded his head. His lips were a little purple as he turned his gaze back to Lin Qi.


    "Let''s keep watching. I don''t believe that his immortal qi will still be useful in the fifth trial." The smile on Shen Shan''s face disappeared and was replaced by a serious expression. Lin Xing had obtained the treasure of the fourth stage. This was something he had never expected.


    However, in the next moment, everyone''s eyes froze as they saw Lin Xing unleash a brand-new energy.


    "What is this? "Could it be the legendary Heavenly Origin?"


    They had never seen that kind of power before, they had only heard of it from their seniors in the sect. If they didn''t guess wrongly, then it was most likely the Heavenly Source for the Dragon Faction.


    "That''s right, it''s Tianyuan." The Northern Tomb King had once seen a genius from the Long Yan bloodline in the Heavenly Cauldron, so he said with confidence. His face was full of surprise, and wasn''t Lin Xing cultivating all three of his strengths at the same time?


    This was unprecedented.


    "This ¡­"


    Lin Xing was too mysterious and evil. In fact, no one knew that Lin Xing still had another power within him, and that was the Death God Power that had been injected into Yun Hu''s body. With such thoughts running through his head, Yun Hu didn''t dare to think any further.


    He only felt that this young man wearing a ghost mask was too terrifying and heaven-defying.

 C101

    Stepping into the fifth stage, he scanned the endless sea of lightning before him. A haze shrouded Lin Xing''s heart, as if he had suddenly recalled the heavenly tribulation that had destroyed his future. His right arm heavily slapped his body, and without any hesitation, he released his Heavenly Source.


    Thunder and lightning interweaved. Lightning flashed, thunder rumbled, and dense lightning surged. Every single lightning was over a hundred meters long. They streaked across the sky, flickering with golden light with frightening might.


    Tian Yuan rushed out from his body and surrounded him, protecting him layer by layer. Then he walked straight ahead, the surrounding lightning automatically avoiding him, not daring to come into contact with him.


    The origin of heaven came from the heavens, the heavenly dao, and nature. It could control all natural powers, although Lin Xing did not have the ability to completely control this land mine, the origin of heaven represented the heavenly dao, so naturally the lightning did not dare to cross it. That was why Lin Xing did not dare to touch the origin of heaven upon its appearance.


    Soon, with the help of the Heaven Origin Sect, Lin Xing arrived at the end of the fifth trial. He bent down and picked up the treasure with a smile on his face.


    It was like a grain of black rice, about the size of a little finger. It was pitch black and flowed with multicolored light, and amidst the amazement, Lin Xing was fiddling with it. After a while, he suddenly felt that the skin on his palm had turned a bit redder.


    It seemed as if a ball of blood and Qi had solidified there. The ground was swollen and slightly wiggled, as if it wanted to break out of the body.


    Shocked, Lin Xing immediately placed the black rice into the soul hole. He then abruptly clenched his fist, dispersing the blood energy there.


    If he didn''t guess wrong, this should be a body refining divine medicine that could increase blood energy, shape bones, and even build up the body. Body refining medicines were the most common, but the ones that could truly be counted as divine were extremely rare, so it was likely that this black rice was a type of rarely seen body refining divine medicine.


    Presumably, the Northern Tomb King had obtained quite a few treasures from the Heaven Cauldron, and those that were casually placed in the formation were Divine Medicines. The rumors were indeed correct. The Heavenly Cauldron was a mysterious and colorful Holy Land.


    Heavenly Cauldron? What a great place.


    Lin Qi suddenly looked up, his eyes shooting out a strange light. He could not help but feel restless and excited.


    Calming himself down, he used his middle finger to flick the clothes on his chest. With a sharp look in his eyes, he immediately stepped into the sixth test.


    The people outside saw his actions clearly, and their expressions were all as if they had seen a ghost. This youth wearing a ghost mask was too mysterious and unfathomable. Most people were looking forward to what kind of method he would use in the sixth test.


    Of course, there were also a few people who had pale faces, their faces were filled with envy and unwillingness. Yuliu and Yun Chi were both dumbfounded, but their eyes were filled with killing intent.


    Shen Shan''s lips were trembling, and his intestines were turning green from regret. No matter what, he would never have dared to dream about a mere Dao Severing Stage cultivator stealing away the treasures of the two stages.


    Let alone that, even the Northern Tomb King was at a loss of what to do. His face was full of shock. All three of them had cultivated together. Sorry, but this wasn''t a joke. Even in the Heavenly Cauldron Monster''s body, they had never seen such a thing.


    At the same time, two more people walked in from outside. They were a young man dressed in a daoist robe and a young girl dressed in purple. They were all extraordinary and had an otherworldly air about them, and wherever they went, they would attract the attention of others.


    "Senior Apprentice Brother Ma, don''t you see that he is the person we met at the Spirit Transformation Mountain?" Seeing Lin Qi, Zi Yin could not help but exclaim in surprise. Her pretty face showed some happiness as she had helped her before.


    The daoist-robed young man had a crystal gourd hanging from his waist, and he was standing beside Zi Yin under a tree. He was staring at Lin Xing who was in the formation, and slowly nodded his head, "That''s right, that''s him.


    "Just now, we were passing by, and that''s why we walked in when we heard the exclamations in the manor. The three of them were training together, so it should be him, right? But was that possible? I don''t quite believe it. " Ziying touched his head and said.


    Ma Yu pursed his lips as shock flashed past his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head and said, "I also think that''s impossible. I dare not say anything else, but the immortal qi of our Door of Immortality would never fuse with the netherworld''s spiritual energy in a single person''s body. "


    Zi Yin frowned and instead relaxed, saying, "I know about this. Senior Martial Brother, you have also entered the Heavenly Cauldron before. Take a look at his talent, is there any possibility for him to enter the Heavenly Cauldron?"


    Although he is powerful and is almost invincible in the same realm, the chances of him trying to attract the Sky Cauldron is also very small. For example, the Northern Tomb King only managed to enter at the age of 45, which means that he has been saving up because he was not confident previously that I would be able to attract the Sky Cauldron to descend. At that time, I spent a total of three years at the peak of the Dao Reaching Realm. Ma Yu rubbed the crystal gourd on his waist. At the end, he also had a sad expression on his face.


    When Ziyin heard this, he softly sighed and bitterly smiled, "In that case, I have no hope."


    "That''s not necessarily true. From birth, some people are destined to have the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Cauldron, because their physiques meet the requirements of the heavens, such as the Giant Spirit Sect''s Giant Remains, a natural born four-elephant body. From the beginning until now, they were able to cultivate unimpeded and advance into the Heaven Smiting Stage without any effort, and the reason why the Heavenly Cauldron descended is because their physiques meet the requirements of the heavens, allowing them to easily blend into the world''s orbit." Ma Qi said.


    "Giant Thoughts? Hehe, this person is indeed not bad. Now that our sect and the Giant Spirit Sect have teamed up, why don''t senior take this opportunity to spar with him? I really want to know which one of you is stronger! " Ziying chuckled as he spoke.


    Ma Qi rolled his eyes and shook his head with a bitter smile, "Me and him? It''s hard to say right now. In two years, I will be inferior to him. I heard that he roamed around the Heavenly Cauldron for eighty thousand miles without anyone being able to defeat him. Even the peerless geniuses would feel fear from him upon hearing his name. "


    "Is he really that powerful?" Zi Yin''s face was filled with shock, then he curled his lips at Ma Qi and didn''t seem to mind. She was very clear on the strength of his mistake, it was impossible for Giant Remains to easily win against him. Even if another two years passed, it would still be the same.


    "I will fight with him in the end. He is also the only person in the large sect that I truly value." Ma Chenyi''s eyes shot out a sharp gaze.


    Then, he waved his hand and said in a rather bored manner, "Let''s go. Although I am interested in this formation, I am not interested in the people and treasures that will pass this trial."


    "Yes." Ziying pouted his lips.


    However, just as they turned around to take a step, a large white light suddenly shone from behind them. Ma Qi abruptly turned his head to look at the two bright and cold black lights. His face was filled with shock.


    "Wait a minute." This person has an immortal ¡­ "

 C102

    "He really does have immortal qi."


    At the same time, Zi Yin had withdrawn the three inches tall lotus. He turned his head and looked at Lin Xing, who was still in the sixth stage of the test, with a shocked expression.


    It turned out that she had not heard wrongly when the cries of surprise sounded out from outside the manor earlier. It turned out that the person wearing the Ghost Face Mask was truly a cultivator with three forces.


    "No, this person has a Celestial art!" Ma Qi''s voice was trembling, and his fingers were trembling.


    "What!?" Those two black lights are a secret Immortal technique? " Compared to before, Ziyin was even more shocked, his mouth was wide open, and he was more than capable of stuffing in an apple.


    "Yes, that''s an immortal cultivation technique, and it was a technique that was lost in the ancient times. This technique was created by a senior from our Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Great Rudra Immortal. Our Celestial Sect of Wonders does not know the exact name, but it has vaguely described it to me." Ma Qi''s voice trembled, and a single word with incomparable certainty jumped out from between his teeth.


    It was not an exaggeration to say that there were very few supreme techniques in the entire world, and they were extremely rare and rare. Even in a great sect like the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, there were only two of them that could be considered supreme techniques.


    Even an elder didn''t have the qualifications to train, much less these disciples. Only a monster like Ma Que, who had cultivated a little bit of the Ancient Cauldron''s remnant scrolls, was incomplete.


    At this moment, in the territory of a great divine arts sect, seeing a dao realm cultivator unleash a secret technique of the celestial sovereign was like a dream to them.


    In the sixth trial, Lin Xing once again used the Nine Divine Lantern Technique. His steps were extremely fast, and after a while, he was able to leisurely walk to the end without any danger.


    Picking up the sixth treasure, he lightly glanced at it and put it into his soul hole. This was a weapon and he planned to take it out after leaving this place to carefully observe it. After all, there were so many eyes staring at him which made him feel uncomfortable.


    "King of Northern Tombs, didn''t you say that even Heavenly Cauldron Monsters can''t all clear the level?"


    Some people gnashed their teeth and roared at the Northern Tomb King. There was still one more sentence that had yet to come out, so how could he so easily break through to the seventh stage? It looked very relaxed.


    The pupils of the Northern Tomb King contracted even more. He ignored that person and his eyes were locked on Lin Xing, who was walking into the seventh trial.


    The darkest person at the scene was Shen Shan, because of his arrogance, he had given up the two treasures, causing the egg to almost turn green. Besides, who would have thought that even You You and Yun Chi could only pass through one of the stages, and the masked man in front of them had successfully reached the seventh stage?


    Yun Chi let out an unwilling growl as he pressed against Yun Hu''s neck with his palms. He asked in a sinister voice, "Tell me, where did this person come from?"


    Yun Hu''s face fell and his body trembled due to fear. He did not dare to hide anything from Yun Chi and said hoarsely, "Senior Brother Yun Chi, I do not know where he came from. I only know that he intends to make an enemy out of our sect."


    "Really?" Yun Chi suddenly increased the power of his fingers as a bluish-purple color emerged from Yun Hu''s neck.


    "Really. Cloudfox didn''t dare to hide anything from you, Senior apprentice-brother. " Cloudy Fox replied timidly, his face showing pain.


    "Hmph. It''s best if you don''t dare. You should know what happens when you deceive me." Yun Chi released his finger and let out a deep snort. After which, he shifted his gaze towards Lin Xing as a cold glint flashed past the depths of his eyes.

 C103

    In the seventh trial, Lin Xing once again used the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique. His path was smooth and carefree as he leisurely strolled through the streets. Everything was disintegrating into dust in the end.


    In order to get out of this hurdle as soon as possible, he had activated four black lights in the middle of his journey. In order to get out of this hurdle as quickly as possible, he had activated four black lights in the middle of his journey.


    The most shocked of all was still the mistake of the horse. He had unmistakably recognized the origin of this immortal technique. His two eyes shot out two sharp glints as he stared fixedly at Lin Xing, wanting to see through him.


    Under everyone''s stupefied stares, Lin Xing entered the eighth trial.


    What entered his eyes was a dark starry sky, filled with life, the distant river of stars rippling, the stars flashing and leaving, the proximity was ice-cold yet dark. Lin Xing had just taken a step, when sinister God Ancient Devil Seeds rushed out from the void.


    Each of these ancient devil seeds were comparable in size to a mountain. They fused together from the void and rushed towards Lin Xing. They failed, continuing to merge into the void, waiting for the next attack.


    Moreover, there were also many of them, constantly charging and disappearing. This caused Lin Xing to feel a headache as well, and his heart skipped a beat.


    Before this, he had tried out all sorts of powers and spells in his body, but they had no effect on him. Even if he activated four black lights and let out a large amount of cold light, the Archaic Devil Seed still wouldn''t be afraid.


    Lin Qi''s actions seemed to have angered them, and his attacks were even fiercer. His heart could not help but beat erratically as he retreated.


    With his current strength, he could only activate four black lights at most, and it would be very strenuous. If he could activate the fifth black light, he might not even have the ability to protect himself, but he could not do it now.


    After a long while, he was finally tormented to the point of being on the verge of death. His entire body was sweating and his flesh and blood seemed to have been sucked dry. He couldn''t even muster up a single ounce of strength.


    Suddenly, a black figure of a magic seed appeared in his vision, causing him to panic. It was too late for him to dodge.


    At this critical moment, he brought out the last type of energy that was hibernating within his body.


    Suddenly, his body seemed to be releasing an endless aura of desolation and desolation. His entire body seemed to have transformed into an ancient beast. His aura was extremely astonishing, and a large wave of Qi spread out in all directions.


    This was the power that he extracted from the Rainbow Beast Pills he obtained from killing the spirit beasts in the Soul Forming Mountain. Lin Xing called it beast power. It had been hidden deep within his body the entire time and was finally released at this moment.


    When the approaching demons sensed this power, they couldn''t help but become fearful. Their mountainous bodies also trembled as they prostrated themselves on the ground, as if they had met their king. They didn''t dare to defy him in the slightest.


    Lin Xing waved his sleeve and took a step forward. Those demon seeds scattered in all directions and fused back into the void.


    Although the people outside could not see what was going on inside, they could still sense the beast powers that Lin Xing had activated. They were also taken aback by Lin Qi''s actions, as if he was walking in a completely uninhabited place.


    "Although the heavens did not recognize the fifth power, why do I feel that it is no weaker than immortal energy or divine power?"


    His face was filled with shock, and his lips were trembling. Everyone was overwhelmed with shock and disbelief, because today, this masked man had brought them far too much shock. Many of them had thoughts of killing or roping him in as soon as possible.


    No one at the scene noticed that when they saw Lin Xing use his beast power, the eyes of the Northern Tomb King almost popped out and his heart was filled with waves of shock.


    "I don''t believe that Great Master Feng, who wants to fuse the powers of the heavens, has only been born for half a month. How could he possibly do that?" The Northern Tomb King was extremely shocked, and the shock in his heart overflowed to the heavens.


    And just as they were lost in their thoughts, Lin Xing placed the eighth trial treasure into the soul hole. This pill was even more extraordinary than the previous one. It was shining brightly, like a seven-colored gem.


    After finishing the eight trials, the white field suddenly disappeared, revealing Lin Xing''s figure.


    Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, he jumped up onto the platform and scanned everyone''s face. He stopped on Cang Xiaoxiao''s face for two to three seconds before landing on the person who had obtained the Flowerflower.


    "Can you transfer your Celestial Moon Flower to me?" Lin Xing said to the man.


    Hearing that, that person''s eyes were stunned, then he became angry and said, "Impudent! The Immortal Moon Flower is a priceless treasure. No matter how many Spirit Crystals you offer, I will not sell it."


    "Oh, really?" Lin Qi sneered and pulled out a palm-sized gray pill from within his soul. This was the pill he had obtained in the fourth trial, and had the effect of instantly increasing his cultivation base.


    "What if I use this pill in exchange?"


    The man''s eyes glazed over once more as he tried to determine the strength of the pill''s medicinal properties. He found it hard to believe what he saw, and everyone was staring at Lin Xing as if they were looking at a monster.


    As long as one was not a fool, everyone would know that this treasure was more precious than the previous one. The gray pill in Lin Xing''s hand was obviously more valuable than the Immortal Moon Flower.


    "Are you kidding?" The man asked in surprise.


    "No, I will sincerely exchange with you. Can you just directly say that you want to trade with me or not?" Lin Qi said impatiently, as if he was trying to retrieve the gray pill.


    "Wait a moment." That person did not hesitate and directly said, "I will change. Since you have the heart, how can I not fulfill your wish?"


    Lin Xing laughed and threw the gray pill at the man, as if it were a piece of trash.


    That person received it with one hand and his eyes flashed. After pondering for a long time, he took out the Immortal Moon Flower and threw it to Lin Qi with a pained expression.


    When he saw Lin Xing act so casually just now, he had thought of taking the two treasures for himself. However, when he thought about the various skills Lin Xing had displayed in the array and the many eyes watching him, he gave up on this idea.


    Holding the Immortal Moon Flower in his hand and examining it, he brought it close to his nose and took a deep sniff. He then took a deep breath and revealed an expression that he did not want to finish yet.


    After which, his gaze landed on Cang Xiaoxiao, who was below the stage, as he asked, "Miss, may I come up?"


    "Me?" Cang Xiao pointed at the bridge of her nose. With a slightly moved expression, she smiled and walked up.


    Many people seemed to have guessed something, and they stared at this scene in astonishment.


    Especially those women. After the Immortal Moon Flower changed its owner, they constantly threw flirty glances at Lin Xing, trying to seduce him.


    Lin Xing grabbed Cang Xiaoxiao''s wrist. The latter did not struggle at all and her arm was lifted up by him just like that.


    Under everyone''s astonished gaze, Lin Xing placed the Celestial Moon Flower in Cang Xiaoxiao''s hand.


    "The crescent moon is as beautiful as you. May you be the same as it, forever unwithered."

 C104

    Holding the Immortal Moon Flower in his hand, Cang Xiao''s small mouth revealed a satisfied and gentle smile as he recalled many beautiful memories in his heart.


    She was now certain that the masked man before her was Lin Xing, her junior brother whom she hadn''t seen in two years.


    Lin Qi still hadn''t loosened his grip on her wrist. Seeing her smile, his heart raced. He exerted a little strength and pulled Cang Xiaoxiao into his embrace.


    In front of so many people, Cang Xiaoxiao was originally a bit shy. She then pursed her lips and snuggled into Lin Qi''s embrace, not letting go at all.


    Yun Chi and Shen Shan were extremely jealous. The two of them loved to laugh at the sight of their lover being carried by a man, and their hearts were filled with a feeling of wanting to die.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    Shen Shan furiously roared. In this world, the only person who could cause Cang Xiao to reveal such an obedient appearance was Lin Xing.


    "What?! It''s Lin Xing."


    Upon hearing this name, killing intent immediately overflowed from Yun Chi. Black Qi surged from his entire body as he gnashed his teeth. His hatred for Lin Ming was monstrous to the heavens.


    At the same time, the Northern Tomb King narrowed his eyes. Lin Xing had caused a sensation back then, so he naturally knew of this name. Moreover, he had also heard about the story between him and Cang Xiao.


    "Lin Xing? "Who is he? You must have recognized the wrong person. I have never heard of this name before." Lin Xing let go of Cang Xiao''s arm, turned his head, and asked with a dazed look in his eyes.


    "You''re still pretending? I know you''re Lin Xing. If you dare to appear here today, you won''t be able to escape." Shen Shan''s eyes revealed killing intent, his face was gloomy as he clenched his fists.


    Today, because of Lin Xing, he did not obtain a single treasure, although he had reasons of his own, Lin Xing was still the one in charge of this pot. Today, because of Lin Xing, he did not obtain a single treasure, although he had his reasons of his own, this pot was left to Lin Xing.


    Thinking of this, the resentment in his heart disappeared. Instead, it was replaced with a cold sneer and glee.


    So what if Lin Xing had more skills and strength? The two of them were truly in the Heaven Smiting Stage, and judging from Yun Chi''s appearance, he clearly had a grudge against Lin Xing. Even Cang Xiao couldn''t stop them, at most, he would give the two treasures to Yun Chi.


    "Sorry, I didn''t understand a single word of what you were saying. Are you trying to covet my treasures and find an excuse to kill me? And then take it for herself? " Lin Xing calmly said.


    Hearing this, the rest of them wiped their sweat away as they shifted their gaze onto Shen Shan. If he really had this idea, then the people here were not easy to deal with. So what if you are the head disciple of the Heavenly Ascension Sect? You dare to snatch this masked man, we dare to snatch you.


    Shen Shan''s tone turned serious as he pointed at Lin Xing and said, "Even if you are not Lin Xing, how could you not know Lin Xing''s name? How about this, in order to prove your identity, take off your mask if you have the ability. If you didn''t have Lin Xing, I definitely wouldn''t have done anything to you. Furthermore, I will even respect you as my esteemed guest in the Heaven Ascension Sect, but I''m afraid that you won''t be able to see the light of day. "


    "I''m sorry, but I''m really not from the Sky Sect. As for my face, if I were to reveal it, I''m sure you would all be shocked." His heart had long since died to the Sky-rising Sect. He then said the last part of his sentence in a cold voice.


    "Heh, why are you wasting words with him? Let me rush forward to take off his mask." Yun Chi once again suspected that the masked man in front of him was Lin Xing. Hatred filled his heart as he flew into a rage and his body flashed onto the stage.


    Cang Xiaoxiao suddenly walked forward and blocked Yun Chi''s path. Her expression was extremely cold.


    "Miss Cang, I know that your relationship with Lin Xing is not ordinary. I can''t bear to hurt you. Please move aside." Yun Chi said gloomily.


    Cang Xiao shook his head, unmoved. He did not intend to retreat and coldly replied, "Regardless of whether he is Lin Xing, as long as he gives me the immortal moon flower, I will not let you touch him today."


    As these words fell into Lin Zhi''s ears, he couldn''t help but sigh in his heart before it turned into an incomparably resolute expression. Cang Xiaoxiao was the most important woman in his life, and there was no other.


    "Brother Yun, go ahead and kill Lin Xing. I''ll stop her with a smile."


    Shen Shan''s voice rang out. His body flashed as he leapt onto the high platform. His entire body''s divine force surged out, forming a green light curtain that enveloped Cang Xiaoxiao.


    Cang Xiaoxiao waved her sleeve and activated a blazing starlight, blocking the light screen. However, Shen Shan did not intend to stop and the light screen instantly pressed down. Cang Xiaoxiao could only helplessly continue to use the starlight to resist.


    Both of them were the top disciples of the Sky Sect. Even if Cang Xiao was a little weaker, he wouldn''t be much weaker. However, he could only block them now. It would be impossible to stop Yun Chi if he was free to do so.


    Without needing Shen Shan to remind him, Yun Chi stared at Lin Qi, his eyes revealing a fierce light. His body flashed, and he rushed towards Shen Shan, his attack was his deathblow.


    Regardless of whether he was Lin Xing or not, he had to kill this person as soon as possible today. This person was simply too heaven-defying.


    Lin Qi calmly stood on the spot, waiting for him to attack. At the same time, he secretly activated the Death God power in order to resist.


    "Enough."


    Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, and it was as if the crowd was struck by lightning, directly scattering the power that Cang Xiao and Shen Shan had channeled into their bodies, at the same time suppressing Yun Chi''s body.


    Everyone looked towards the source of the explosive shout. This voice came from the Northern Tomb King. His expression changed from his former state as he stared at the people around him in an unfriendly manner.


    "Northern Tomb King, he is Lin Xing, he is a wanted criminal in our Sky Sect."


    Shen Shan angrily looked at the Northern Tomb King.


    "Isn''t he Lin Xing? This conclusion is a little too premature. Although Lin Xing possesses the Ancient God''s body, his cultivation was crippled by heavenly tribulation two years ago. Even if he were to cultivate anew, do you think he would be so heaven-defying?" The Northern Tomb King powerfully replied with a question.


    When these words were spoken, Shen Shan and Yun Chi''s faces flushed red. The Northern Tomb King''s words were reasonable and well-founded, making it impossible for them to refute him.


    The reason why they had such suspicions was because Cang Xiaoxiao and him were so close. However, if Lin Xing was able to grow so fast and had all five types of powers at the same time, they would not be able to believe it themselves.

 C105

    "I''ve already said it before. This is my residence. Who would want to attack in my residence? That is my enemy, and I will not be lenient."


    The Northern Tomb King''s tone was extremely cold and fierce, surging with divine power. He was a freak with the heavenly tripod, if they wanted to offend him, Shen Shan and Yun Chi had to think twice before doing anything.


    "Then please allow the Northern Tomb King to remove his mask. If it was not for Lin Xing, I would have immediately let this matter go." Shen Shan''s face was filled with dissatisfaction.


    "That won''t do. This is his private property, so I have no right to interfere. As long as it''s in my residence, none of you are qualified to interfere." The Northern Tomb King flatly refused.


    At this point, anyone could see that the Northern Tomb King obviously had the intention of favoring this masked man.


    Standing at the back, Lin Xing looked at the Northern Tomb King leaning on him, and a strange expression appeared on his face underneath the mask. He was not related to the Northern Tomb King in any way, and had not even spoken to him before.


    The Northern Tomb King turned around and gently smiled at Lin Qi while cupping his hands in salute, "Little brother, can you stay in my manor for a few days?"


    Lin Xing understood that the Northern Tomb King was protecting him. He exchanged a glance with Cang Xiao and smiled, "I wish for nothing more."


    "Alright, you can pick out the rooms in my mansion. As for what you need, just instruct Xiao Qi Zi." The Northern Tomb King pointed at Seventh Prince, whose face was dark.


    "Thank you for the Northern Tomb King''s hospitality." Lin Qi nodded slightly.


    Hearing the conversation between the two, Yun Chi, Shen Shan and the rest all had ashen faces.


    "I will guard you outside the door. I don''t believe that you will never return to this mansion." Yun Chi immediately threw out the next ruthless sentence.


    Lin Qi helplessly spread out his hands. Right at this moment, a person from the underworld rushed in with a panicked expression. He quickly ran to Yun Chi''s side, as if he had something to report to him.


    "Alright, I''d like to see who can afford to consume energy for themselves." Lin Xing said with a smile.


    The Ghost ran to Yun Chi''s side and whispered something into his ear. Yun Chi''s expression immediately darkened, as if black water was dripping out from his body.


    "The Giant Spirit Sect has gone too far." He was enraged, and clenched his fists tightly. The fire in his eyes burned even hotter.


    After that, he coldly glanced at the ghost mask on Lin Qi''s face, waved his sleeve, turned around and led the group of Dark Dwellers away.


    If Lin Xing guessed correctly, the news that the Dark Dweller came to report should be the news of all the ghost soldiers of the Yin Master Sect being uprooted. The Giant Spirit Sect was busy fighting, but Yun Chi was still in the mood to come and join in on the fun, and now that all the ghost soldiers had been annihilated, they had lost a great deal of their strength.


    He had yet to remove the Death God Power for Yun Hu, but as long as it was not activated, it would not cause much harm to Yun Hu. After a long time, Yun Hu would automatically refine it, and if she was able to absorb it, it would be treated as a gift to her.


    "Yun Chi does not have time to waste with you, but I do, and aren''t you worried about your family? I have sent men to arrest them. Let me tell you, this is a very important matter, even fairy goddesses can''t stop it. " Shen Shan sneered as he observed Lin Xing''s every move.


    Lin Qi''s heart skipped a beat, but he did not show it on the surface, nor did he say anything.


    She looked at Cang Xiao and asked gently, "Could Miss accompany me for a walk?"


    "You gave me the Immortal Moon Flowers, but I was unable to find the time to thank you. This is great." Cang Xiao laughed happily.


    Afterwards, the two of them walked down from the high platform and headed towards the manor.


    The Northern Tomb King watched this scene with a smile, then ordered the Seventh Prince to accept the gifts and left as well.


    At the same time, Ziying, who was standing at the periphery, asked Ma Qi, "Senior Brother, should we leave now?"


    Mubai shook his head and said in a serious tone, "We won''t be going. We''ll stay here for now and put the matter of the Giant Spirit Sect aside. I want to find out everything about this person and the celestial spell he cultivated."


    "Yes." Zi Yin nodded, feeling a little touched.


    Lin Xing and Cang Xiaoxiao arrived at a secluded room in the mansion. They pushed open the door and entered. The dust was as white as snow. Because no one had lived here for a long time, every room was covered in dust and cobwebs.


    However, the facilities inside were quite complete. All the tables, chairs, chairs, and beds were available. With a wave of Lin Qi''s sleeve, all the dust was swept away. Then, he led Cang Xiaoxiao into the room.


    Closing the door, he walked in front of Cang Xiaoxiao, removed his mask and turned around once again.


    "It''s really you."


    When Cang Xiaoxiao saw the long-awaited expression on Lin Qi''s face, tears welled up in her eyes as she sobbed uncontrollably. Then, she threw herself into Lin Qi''s embrace.


    "It''s me! Senior sister, I haven''t seen you in two years. How are you?" Lin Qi suddenly felt his eyes turn red and swollen, as if they were about to drip with water. He extended a hand and gently caressed Cang Xiaoxiao''s cheek.


    After Cang Xiaoxiao heard this, tears fell like rain, hugging Lin Xing even more tightly as she sobbed in excitement, "Fine, everything is fine for me. It''s just that in the past two years, I''ve heard that you''ve suffered greatly, and I''ve always wanted to help you, but Master confined me to the sect, so I''m not allowed to see you. "I''m sorry."


    Lin Xing used a cold finger to wipe away the tears on her cheeks and soothingly said, "It''s nothing much. I just stayed at home and thought about it for two years. Master was right not to invite you to see me."


    "Master also has his own difficulties ¡­" Cang Xiao suddenly lifted her head from Lin Qi''s chest.


    Before she could even finish, a cold finger pressed against her lips. Lin Qi smiled and said, "I know, the last time I was trapped in the Sky Sect, it was him who saved me. I have never blamed him, I only blame the Elders of the Sky Sect for being too cold-blooded, and everything is for profit.


    A desolate look appeared on her beautiful face, and then, she recalled the various strengths Lin Xing had within the array. Immediately, a glint flashed across her eyes as she asked, "Junior brother, I''ve heard that you have quite the reputation recently. I heard that during this war between the Yin Master Sect and Giant Spirit Sect, they did not forget to apprehend you.


    As for my strength, I have indeed met with some fortuitous encounters recently. However, even if I were to recover to the peak, I am still not a match for Shen Shan and Liu Fengyu. After all, they have been improving for a long time. Lin Xing said.


    "I believe that you will definitely surpass them and break through the shackles of the Heavenly Path." Cang Xiaoxiao had an incomparably resolute expression on her face. She had always had confidence in Lin Xing, and she had always been, and would always be, and always be, in the future.


    Then, she let go of Lin Qi''s waist and followed him to the edge of the bed to sit down.


    The two of them reminisced about the past, occasionally feeling joyous and occasionally sighing deeply. Lin Xin recounted some of the recent happenings that happened to him, which were naturally colorful and thrilling to the extreme. Hearing this, Cang Xiao couldn''t help but laugh and cry out in surprise.


    However, there were still some important things that were hidden. For example, the golden trump card, the Hidden Heaven Technique, and the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique that existed in his mind.


    After all, these items were of great importance. If he told Cang Xiaoxiao that there would only be harm in these items, it would not bring her any benefits.

 C106

    After reminiscing about the past with Cang Xiao for a long time, he recounted the bitter journey he had gone through for the past two years. It was only when dawn arrived that Lin Xing reluctantly left, walking towards a house to the side to temporarily stay for the time being.


    The room was also covered in dust. Lin Qi waved his sleeve and cleaned it before walking to the side of the bed and sitting down in a daze.


    Bang, bang ¡­


    Hearing the knock on the door, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. He put on his mask once again and called out to the door, "Come in."


    With a squeak, the door of the room was gently pushed open. Dressed in a long robe and with a gentle expression, the Northern Tomb King walked in and casually closed the door.


    Seeing him walk into the room with a smile on his face, Lin Xing sat on the edge of the bed and did not stand up. Instead, he asked with a slightly cold tone, "Did the Northern Tomb King come to find me to retrieve my treasure?"


    He immediately raised his two palms in front of his chest and shook them continuously as he said with an apologetic smile: "No no no, I didn''t come here for you, and since you succeeded in breaking through, that is what you deserve. I won''t say a word but you will still keep your promise."


    Lin Qi smiled and the person sitting on the edge of the bed suddenly stood up. He made a gesture to invite the Northern Tomb King, and then sat down in front of a round stone table with many colors drawn on it.


    The Northern Tomb King shook his head with a bitter smile and sat down as well.


    Lin Xing had become the master, but he had become the guest.


    Their gazes met, and Lin Xing''s face, hidden behind the mask, remained expressionless as he quietly waited for the Northern Tomb King to speak.


    He directly went straight to the point and asked, "I don''t care about your identity. Even if it was really Lin Xing, I wouldn''t say anything about capturing you to receive rewards from the Heaven Ascension Sect. I came to find you to ask you, what was the source of the power you used in the eighth trial?"


    Hearing that, Lin Qi''s eyebrows unconsciously tightened into a knot, he was quite surprised, his eyes squinted as he asked, "What?" You recognize that power? "


    "That''s right, I know him." The Northern Tomb King let out a long breath, his face full of anticipation as he looked at Lin Qi. In addition, a trace of fanaticism flashed in the depths of his eyes.


    Just as he was about to continue, he heard Lin Xing ask, "I wonder if you could tell me about the difference in power between the two of you?"


    When these words fell into the ears of the Northern Tomb King, he immediately smiled bitterly with a helpless expression. This Lin Xing was the one who took the initiative, I was the one who took the initiative to ask you if you were alright.


    However, he did not have the intention to hide it. He slowly closed his eyes, and then suddenly opened them. They shot out a sharp light, and there was even a trace of reverence and shock on his face.


    "If I am not mistaken, the power you used in the eighth test should be Feng Li. This power is the power that Senior Feng Li wanted to fuse with the Heavens, and he has already succeeded, so he used his name. I have seen a Heavenly Cauldron freak use this when I was in the Heavenly Cauldron. " The Northern Tomb King said.


    "Great Master Feng Li? has already succeeded? " Lin Qi frowned, indicating that he had never heard of this name before.


    Thinking of this, Lin Qi was deeply shocked. Since the ancient era, there had been people constantly creating all kinds of powers, and they were all putting in all their effort to merge them into the Heavenly Path, but without exception, none of them succeeded.


    Even the godly figure, Hierarch Cang Tian, who founded the Hidden Heaven School, failed. However, he didn''t expect that there would actually be someone who could do it today. This was an event that could shock the world and even shake the heavens.


    The things that many great Honored Warriors had dreamt of doing were actually succeeded by the Great Honored Warrior Feng Li mentioned by the Northern Tomb King. This person''s achievements were not inferior to any other founder of the sect.


    "I once met a descendant of Great Honored Warrior Feng Li in the Heavenly Cauldron. Although that descendant had already refined this power and entered his body, he had never used it until half a month ago, when Great Honored Warrior Feng Li successfully fused the mane into the Heavenly Path and created a resonance with it. That person released a rainbow of light, and with a single move, he killed three of the Heavenly Cauldron''s freaks." The Northern Tomb King said.


    He continued, "And I found it hard to believe that you had the power of a lemon today, so I came here to pay a visit and look for the answer."


    Hearing this, Lin Xing already understood everything. He had also found an accurate answer to the change that had occurred in the mountain.


    "The real body of Great Master Feng Li should be an ancient beast, right?" Lin Xing probed.


    "How do you know?"


    The place that Great Honored Warrior Feng Li had ruled was hundreds of millions of miles away from here. Even the various sect elders might not have heard of his name, let alone know his real identity. And the masked man in front of him seemed to be very clear about it.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that the descendant of the Great Master Feng Li had secretly told him, he wouldn''t have known either.


    "I guessed." Lin Qi steadied his mind and thought through all the causes and effects of the change in the Spirit Transformation Mountain.


    At that time, the spirit beasts in the mountains were undergoing a change. This meant that at that time, Great Honored Feng Li had already started integrating Feng Li into the Heavenly Trail, and later on, he entered the shapeshifting spirit mountain to kill some mutated spirit beasts and obtain the Rainbow Beast Pill. At that time, all of the spirit beasts had successfully integrated with him.


    As time went by, the changes in the world had naturally left a lot of bloodlines scattered throughout the land. Although it was very thin, to the point where it was barely visible, the descendant spirit beasts who possessed the bloodline could sense it at the first moment, and a qualitative change followed.


    "You should know about the Molten Spirit Mountain in the Giant Spirit Land, right? That''s where I absorbed and refined the lime in my body." Lin Qi did not hide anything as this matter would be discovered by others sooner or later. Moreover, the Northern Tomb King treated him sincerely and he did not want to disappoint him.


    "A Spiritual Molding Mountain?"


    The body of the Northern Tomb King trembled. His eyes turned and he thought for a moment. Then, he seemed to have understood something. His face was filled with fanaticism and restlessness.


    It could be seen that he, too, yearned to obtain that power.


    That descendant in the Heaven Cauldron unleashed Feng Li, beheading three of the Heavenly Cauldron freaks in an instant, bringing him quite a bit of shock.


    "I will leave tomorrow, so you don''t need to worry about me, Northern Tomb King, so hurry up and go. If you''re late, someone will beat you to it. Oh right, you should be able to find the Spirit Transformation Mountain, right?" Lin Xing saw through what he was thinking, so he said this.


    "Thank you for your honest words today. This king is extremely grateful." You may stay here, but no one will dare to step into my mansion. I will instruct Xiao Qi Zi to mobilize heavy soldiers to protect you. " The Northern Tomb King''s heart was as good as dead. He would repay any kindness that he owed, and it was very easy for him to be moved by Lin Xing to the point of being a complete mess.


    Lin Qi smiled bitterly. He did not even need to say three words. Then, he waved his hand, signaling the Northern Tomb King to hurry up and leave.

 C107

    Not long after the Beiling King left, just as Lin Xing was about to refine the pill he obtained from the array formation, another person appeared in the room.


    Yes, he did not just walk in from the door. He appeared in front of Lin Qi just like that.


    It was a woman in white. She was gorgeous and had peerless grace. Her body was surrounded by a hazy immortal aura. She was gorgeous and smooth, as if a fairy descended to the mortal world. She was extraordinary and refined.


    "Fairy ¡­"


    Lin Xing jumped up from the bench and exclaimed as he rubbed his eyes. Are you sure that he wasn''t seeing things?


    After confirming over and over again, who else could it be other than the kid?


    After being shocked for a while, he felt relieved. This kid was cold and unfathomable, and his cultivation was at the same level as someone from the older generation. It wouldn''t be strange for him to silently appear here.


    But, how did this kid find this place? This puzzled him.


    The boy''s face was still covered by a white veil. Seemingly seeing the doubt in his heart, the boy explained to him in a melodious voice: "I used the clothes you left in the house and your smell to cast the Immortal Trail Technique, so I found this place."


    "Oh."


    Immortals were experts in all sorts of strange and strange arts. Then, he frowned and asked in a low voice, "Did something happen in the manor again?"


    "Not at the moment, but soon. The Sky Sect has been trying to suppress me for a long time, and I''m afraid I won''t be able to stop them. I''ve come to find you to report to you." The kid said in a euphemistic tone.


    "Go ahead." Lin Xing frowned.


    If there is no reinforcements, within five days, the city will definitely be destroyed. Now, all the people in the general''s household are grounded, and your father wants to save you, but is unable to do anything about it. Therefore, this heavy responsibility can only fall on you. The kid said coldly.


    "Lu Kaiji." Lin Qi clenched his fists and suddenly stood up straight. He gritted his teeth and said, "I''ll go."


    "Are you alone? That''s a grand army of five hundred thousand. " Kid Leng stared at him and said.


    Hearing that, Lin Qi let out a deep sigh. His eyes were still determined as he said, "Is he alone? Even if it''s a mantis trying to stop a car, I still have to go. "


    The boy looked at him with praise, then with a flip of his hand, he took out a bronze token. There was an eye-catching character carved on it, and it was given to him.


    Lin Qi took it and asked with a frown, "This is?"


    "Walk five kilometers south from the city. There are three hundred Giant Spirit Sect Death Soldiers stationed there. You can use this token to move them and accompany you to battle." Kid Leng explained.


    "A token from the Giant Spirit Sect?" Lin Xing was shocked and his eyes fell on the little brat''s cold eyes.


    "Our Gate of Heavenly Mystery has already made a deal with the Giant Spirit Sect to help them welcome Big Tomb Slaughter." The kid said coldly.


    "Oh? Weren''t you afraid that others would find out about this matter? After all, once we return to the Great Tomb Slaughter, our position as the overlord of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery will not be preserved. " Lin Qi felt puzzled and surprised.


    "I''m not too sure about the specific reason either. This was a decision that was discussed jointly by the immortal elders of our sect. I was only following orders and contributed a bit more strength." The kid said coldly.


    Lin Qi seemed to have thought of something and slowly nodded his head.


    The little guy then continued, "I''ve already told Ma Tian and Ziying to leave first, and they found out that you had the Celestial Secret Art so they temporarily stayed in the mansion. I''ve already explained it to them, so they won''t make things difficult for you in the future."


    The first thing he did after entering the mansion was to look for Ma Qi and Zi Yin. When she heard from Ma Meng that Lin Xing had the technique of the celestial sovereign, she was shocked.


    Perhaps because Lin Xing knew some of the secrets that she was bitterly searching for, his eyes were filled with anticipation when he looked at her.


    Wrong horse and shade?


    After Lin Qi broke through the array, he did notice the two of them, but because he was surrounded by Yun Chi and Shen Shan, he did not pay them any heed.


    Seeing the look of anticipation in the boy''s eyes, he pursed his lips and said, "As for the origin of the Immortal Martial Technique I cultivated, I will tell you when I have the time. Moreover, I will even tell you the location of the Lost City that you are looking for."


    "Do you really know where it is?"


    The kid had already guessed what was going on in his heart. Now that he heard this, he was emotionally moved. His delicate body trembled as excitement emerged in his heart.


    Since Lin Xing had agreed, she would know sooner or later. Even if she did not say anything, she had already found the general location, and finding the specific location was only a matter of time. Furthermore, right now, the matter of the Tomb Slaughtering had become a hot topic, so she was unable to open the Lost City for the time being.


    "I know a few things, but I''m not sure." Lin Xing said.


    "That''s enough. After all, the Lost City has disappeared for so many years. How could it be found so easily?" The kid slightly raised his head.


    "You must be the one who leaked the matter regarding the Big Tomb Slaughter to the Giant Spirit Sect, right?" The kid asked again.


    "Yes." Lin Qi''s killing intent filled the air.


    The young lad gave a faint smile, not reprimanding Lin Xing. The Shadow Sect had gone too far. If Lin Xing did not think of retaliating, the young lad would look down on him instead.


    "There''s no time to lose, I''ll just send you out of the city. I can''t come out for too long, just in case there''s a change in your residence." Little Liang urged.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi slowly nodded his head and looked at the room next door with an affectionate expression. The feelings in his heart were mixed, and it was hard to explain.


    Were they about to part after just meeting? In his heart, he was always reluctant to part with her.


    The boy coldly curled his lips and snorted in a disdainful manner. His nose also wrinkled as he asked in a bad mood, "Have you seen enough?"


    Lin Xing''s nose twitched as he retracted his thoughts. With a wave of his sleeve, a hazy immortal energy enveloped the two of them and their bodies disappeared from the room.


    Lin Qi seemed to have entered into a space-time turbulence. Space flashed, dazzling but blurry. Countless scenes seemed to flash across his eyes, and in the next moment, he appeared in the wilderness outside the city.


    After he landed on the ground, he didn''t waste any more words, directly shooting into the sky. All he saw was a streak of white light streak across the sky, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the horizon.


    Then, Lin Xing calmed himself down and pulled at the clothes covering the upper half of his body. He gripped the command medallion in his hand and rushed towards the south.


    After approximately an incense stick of time had passed, Lin Xing arrived at the location where the three hundred Giant Spirit Sect Death Soldiers were stationed.


    They stood side by side, their movements orderly, not one of them seated or different from the others, as if they were waiting for orders, their eyes cold and unfeeling.


    Lin Qi raised his hand high in the air and the token shone brightly. A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the three hundred dead men, and they all bowed towards him.


    Afterwards, with a wave of Lin Qi''s hand, everyone advanced towards the Azure Silver Country.

 C108

    Looking towards the end of the mountain range, the terrain there was flat, flat, and flat. In the distance stood a black ancient city, and around the city was a large military camp, from time to time there were beacons of smoke and candles burning in the sky.


    The three hundred Death Soldiers took up positions and spread out. They all straightened their waists, wore their armor on their backs, and were ready to go. There was a layer of blood floating around them, and if they didn''t intentionally suppress it, it would cause the forest to change color.


    General, this subordinate has already investigated and ordered the eight hundred thousand man army to attack the city day after day, regardless of the cost. There are still fifty-five men left, but the city has run out of ammunition and food, and only a bunch of old and weak veterans are left.


    A Death Soldier covered in armor ran down the mountain and reported respectfully to Lin Xing.


    "Three days?" Lin Qi could not help but let out a breath of relief. He had come rather late.


    He raised his head and looked at the city that was filled with lights. His eyebrows raised and his gaze returned to the deathsworn in front of him. He asked softly, "I heard that you were all experienced generals who knew how to use troops. "No matter how you say it."


    The Death Soldier raised his head. With a vicious look in his eyes and an aggressive attitude, he answered without hesitation, "We will launch a surprise attack from the back. We will kill everything in our path." When the people of the city saw that reinforcements had arrived, they would surely join forces with us and attack us from the inside. The enemy will certainly be in chaos. "


    Lin Qi pursed his lips and nodded, then shifted his gaze to the other person and asked, "What do you think? This battle is a matter of life and death for all of us. If you have any good ideas, just tell me and I''ll consider it. "


    "If we were to fight, then the three hundred of us would definitely not be a match for the five hundred thousand strong army. If we were to launch a surprise attack, we would be surrounded by the enemy forces for sure, so I suggest that we send someone to contact the people in the city and escort us into the city, and then send some people to rescue them. Then, we can defend this city together and wait for reinforcements to arrive."


    "Reinforcements? Now that your sect is fighting with the Yin Master School, it is already very hard for you three hundred people to come out, there is no need for reinforcements. "But you''re right."


    He did not panic nor did he rush to attack. Although these three hundred people were Death Soldiers, Lin Xing did not want them to die. He treated them as his closest subordinates, and losing even one of them would make him feel guilty.


    Actually, he already had a plan in mind, but this plan had the intent of deflecting the sword, causing the people in the city to be overwhelmed. Thus, he asked them what plan they had, and maybe they could adopt it.


    "Everyone, hide in the mountains. No one is allowed to make a sound. We shall wait here until the day of the general attack. " Lin Xing gave the order.


    The three hundred of them did as they were told, each of them hiding in a corner of the forest.


    Lin Qi had killed Lu Jianji''s most beloved son, and in his heart, he had already chosen him to be the best candidate to be the Crown Prince. But now, he was being brutally killed by Lin Qi, and every time Lu Kai thought of this, he would grit his teeth and grit his teeth in grief and indignation.


    However, Lin Shen still had two foster sons to guard the border. When the officials beside him reminded him of this news, he immediately made a decision and led the eight hundred thousand strong army to the border to launch a fierce attack, even if the army of eight hundred thousand soldiers were to be wiped out, he would not hesitate to do so.


    The attacks were getting fiercer and fiercer every day. Even the warriors below him were almost unable to endure it. However, no one dared to touch the enemy when they saw the angry look on his face.


    Right now, even though Lin Shen''s two foster sons were forced into a corner, it still stirred up their stubborn resistance. Every day, when they attacked the city, they would suffer heavy losses, and corpses would littered the ground beneath the city walls.


    Finally, on the third day, someone came to report the situation of the battle. He told Lu Kaiji that all the remaining strength in the city had been used up by them, and if they attacked again today, they would be able to easily seize the city.


    Lu Kaiji''s expression could not help but be overjoyed. He pressed all five of his fingers against the table, and then smacked it with his palm, growling: "Pounce all the men and horses on, and even my troops will join the battle. You must capture Lin Shen''s two adopted sons to me.


    "The country lord mustn''t. Send all of your army to attack the city. Who will protect you? If an enemy army attacks, then there will be chaos behind me." Someone hurriedly tried to dissuade him.


    "Reinforcements? Now that Lin Shen was unable to protect himself and the military power had been lifted, where would he get reinforcements from? Besides, it''s been so long. Do you think reinforcements will come? Just do as I said, I can''t wait to tear those two little bastards to pieces. " Lu Kaiji disdainfully chuckled sinisterly.


    "Understood." The troops all responded to the order to return to their respective camps and reorganize their horses, preparing for the final attack.


    In the distant mountain forest, Lin Xing saw the army moving, surrounding the city. He pushed out his siege equipment, and when he heard the sounds of drums and horns, his expression finally changed.


    "General, should we launch a surprise attack as well?"


    The three hundred death warriors of the Giant Spirit Sect were also excited. With Lu Kaiji''s center army right in front of them, he had revealed a fatal flaw. If they were to launch a surprise attack, they would definitely be able to achieve complete victory.


    Lin Qi gently shook his head, a serious expression on his face. He calmly replied, "Wait a little longer."


    Lu Kai Ji''s army had just moved, and their attacks had yet to be launched. If they were to rush over now, and if their attacks were to fail and Lu Kai ran away, they would still be surrounded by their army.


    After the battle at the Spirit Creature Mountain, Lin Xing finally understood the value of a subordinate''s life and became even more determined. He could not rashly take risks, and would definitely not fight a battle that he was confident in.


    A long time passed. Lin Xing saw a portion of the army leap over the city walls and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the veterans trapped in the city. His expression suddenly changed and with a flick of his sleeve, three hundred Death Soldiers dashed out from the forest.


    At the same time, he also rushed forward, condensing all the Death God Power in his body. His whole body was surrounded by a violent aura, rushing forward with a speed as fast as lightning.

 C109

    Three hundred branch Dao Realm death warriors charged forward. Their damage was already a ton, and they moved as fast as lightning. They were unstoppable, and no one could stop them.


    Moreover, all the armies had been dispatched by Lu Kaiji to attack the city, and only a little more than 20,000 troops remained in the central army. Although the number was still more than 10 times that of Lin Qi, the 300 men he had brought were all at the Dao separation stage.


    "How is this possible, where did they get reinforcements from?!"


    Lu Kaiji''s gaze swept over the more than three hundred men who were rushing over like wolves, tigers, and vicious. He could not help but reveal a terrified expression. His face was also filled with disbelief as he immediately raised his saber and stood out.


    "Retreat the army, surround and annihilate this enemy army." Lu Kai let out a cold, sinister snort. After a short period of shock, his face turned ashen. The aura of the air robbery stage spread out completely, as if a layer of air waves had been scattered all over the place.


    He took the lead and charged forward, clashing with the death warriors of the Giant Spirit Sect. His cultivation had already entered the sky, and his attacks were fierce. With a wave of his broadsword, he killed two people in an instant.


    "Lu Kaiji."


    Lin Qi noticed this and gave a loud shout. He took out his Phoenix-Dark Saber and rushed towards Lu Kai.


    He was wearing a ghost mask, so Lu Kaiji did not recognize him as Lin Qi. However, he also guessed that he was the leader of this group.


    Killing intent rose from the bottom of his heart. He gritted his teeth and coldly said, "Lin Xing?"


    Hearing this, Lin Qi ignored him and used his blade to slash at him. At the same time, a large amount of Death God Power condensed on the blade, containing a strong corrosive force.


    "Hmph."


    Lu Kaiji coldly snorted. He already knew the answer in his heart. This masked man was definitely the Lin Xing who had disappeared for half a month. Otherwise, who would even care about the lives of Lin Shen''s two godsons?


    With that thought in mind, his killing intent surged incessantly. With eyes wide open, he released all the aura of the Heaven Smiting Stage, attacking towards Lin Xing.


    CHI *


    The two blades collided, creating a series of sparks as a huge wave of air blasted out in all directions.


    However, as soon as the two blades separated, Lu Kaiji could see the blade in his hand corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye before turning into ashes.


    Amidst his shock, Lu Kaiji hurriedly waved his hands. Lin Qi''s saber was highly toxic, so they could not touch it.


    To him, not having a weapon was not very important. This was because his cultivation base was one stage higher than Lin Xing''s. Thus, he was able to display a set of divine arts and use his surging divine strength to crush Lin Xing.


    As soon as the Divine Arts was displayed, Lin Qi saw seven or eight rays of green light shooting towards him. The lights were sharp and cold, as if seven or eight sharp swords were piercing through.


    CHI *


    Mo Dao placed the blade horizontally in front of his chest, yet a green light penetrated the blade, then continued shooting towards Lin Qi''s body. If he did not dodge in time, his heart would have been torn apart.


    "Hmph, I won''t let you die that easily. If I don''t chop your head into eight pieces, how can I let my son''s spirit in heaven down?" Lu Kaiji brought his fingers together, and ten more beams of green light shot out from his fingertips. Each of them was two feet long, sharp as a sword, piercing through the void like a bolt of lightning.


    After dodging the green light, Lin Qi saw more than ten rays of green light shooting towards him. No matter how hard he tried to dodge the green light, they were still pursuing him like a shadow.


    During this process, there were two Death Soldiers that were relatively close to him that were shot through his chest due to being unable to dodge in time. Their hearts shattered and they died instantly.


    "Haha." Run, the longer you run, the more people will die. "


    However, after calming down for a while, he had nothing to fear anymore. It was because he had a high cultivation base, so it would be a bit unrealistic if the three hundred death soldiers wanted to kill him in a short period of time. As long as he could delay them, the attacking army would come back to their senses and encircle and annihilate them.


    Furthermore, he knew that the only person who could save his godsons was Lin Xing. Therefore, he definitely could not run away. He definitely could not let this opportunity to kill Lin Xin slip by.


    How could Lin Xing not know how to dodge it? It would only be a disadvantage, it would not bring him any benefits. However, he was currently in a difficult situation, and there was no other spell or technique that could block the green light.


    Suddenly, his expression changed. He stopped his running steps and took out the Black God Bow from his soul hole. Then, he flicked his finger on the bowstring. The bowstring immediately trembled violently. Then, ten arrows shot out.


    The ten arrows hit the green light respectively, and the moment they hit the green light, the arrows were immediately broken into pieces. They couldn''t block it at all, but it was obvious that the green light''s color dimmed down.


    For Lin to wake up and say, That''s enough.


    When the ten rays of green light arrived in front of him, a black screen appeared in front of him. As he had expected, the green light shot onto it and even though it shook a few times, it was still blocked unwillingly.


    Then, he took out another arrow. At the same time, his pupils rapidly turned hollow and unpredictable. A black hole appeared within him as if it could devour everything. At the same time, it shot out a sharp light and the arrow on the Black God Bow.


    He struggled with his cultivation to suppress the dizziness brought upon by that look, but the moment he recovered, an arrow shot through his throat, causing a string of fresh blood to spurt out.


    He clutched his throat with both hands in despair. After a few moments of struggling, his body fell to the ground, dying. His neck was sticky with blood.


    Lin Qi walked over with his saber, which had a hole in it. When he reached Lu Kai, he took off his mask and threw it on the ground. He would not be able to use it in the future.


    Lu Kaiji lay on the ground, breathing heavily. Blood kept flowing out of his throat and mouth. He raised his finger to point at Lin Xing, and saw the face that he hated to the core. It was filled with hatred and indignation.


    Lin Qi did not want to waste time talking to someone who was about to die. He waved his saber and chopped off that person''s head. Blood splattered in the dust. With a lift of his saber, Lin Qi caught the head of the person in his hand.


    Raising their heads high, the troops that had just returned from the siege were immediately thrown into disarray. No one dared to move forward, and after a few shouts, they scattered in all directions.


    The road had been paved and the monkeys scattered. Even the general felt a chill in his heart. No one had the mood to continue fighting.

 C110

    Lu Kaiji had been decapitated, including the guards around him. When the army saw this scene, they were terrified and fled for their lives.


    Lin Qi counted the number of people and realized that more than twenty men had died, and more were wounded. However, not a single living person was left standing. Even though they were covered in blood, they were still tough and upright.


    He casually threw Lu Kaiji''s head on the ground and walked towards the city.


    After days of war and chaos, many parts of this ancient city were scorched earth. Corpses littered everywhere within the city, piling up into mountains. There were soldiers who died in battle as well as innocent people.


    Not far away, two figures were supporting each other as they walked out of the bonfire. They were two young men wearing armor and had vicious eyes. Their hair was messy and their faces were covered in dirt and blood.


    Even after two years, Lin Xing still recognized them at first glance. The two people who were limping over were Lu Hen, the head of the Eight Symbols, and Lin Qian, who was ranked second.


    Lin Qi quickly stepped forward to support the two of them. Tears streamed down their faces as they sobbed. Their eyes swept over the corpses on the ground, and their faces were filled with deep guilt and indignation.


    Tears flowed down their faces and the wound in their hearts. This was something they would never forget for the rest of their lives.


    "Brothers, I''m late." Lin Qi lowered his head and sighed.


    "Ai, it''s good as long as you''re okay. You''re my foster father''s only son, you can''t harm you because of us." Although both of them were filled with grief, they did not forget to grab onto Lin Qi''s hand as they spoke.


    Lin Qi''s face was filled with a sorrowful smile. He felt a deep guilt in his heart. He tightened his grip on his brothers'' hands and said, "This matter was caused by me to begin with. I''ve harmed everyone."


    "Stop talking, this is your fate. We are waiting for you to rise up and bring us to take revenge. " Lu Hen was hot-blooded.


    Lu Kaiji has already been killed by me, so now is not the time to talk about revenge. We can''t stay here any longer. Lin Xing said.


    "Good, there are only seven or eight hundred people left in the city, and most of them are injured, so the journey should be slow. Xing Di, you go first, I will bring them to follow you." Lu Hen said firmly.


    Lin Xing flatly refused, saying, "No, if we were to walk together, I will fall behind on my own."


    However, the Red Luan Congress had sent people with prestige to clean up the mess and avenge the Emperor. At that time, this dilapidated city could not be stopped no matter what, and even if they were to retreat, leading seven hundred, eight hundred old, weak, and handicapped soldiers, it was very easy for the Steel Cavalry to chase them down.


    After all, the journey from here to the General''s Estate was not that close.


    "Help them up on their horses and retreat back to the city."


    As soon as Lin Xing gave the order, the two Death Soldiers came up to support Lu Hen and Lin Qian. After struggling for a while, they obeyed and were carried onto the horses by the two Death Soldiers.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing ordered the other Death Soldiers to search every corner of the city, pulling everyone who was still alive away, not a single one of them was allowed to stay.


    After all the preparations were made, Lin Xing mounted his horse and left with Lu Hen and Lin Qian. He had brought about a thousand men with him.


    The soldiers and civilians under Lu Hen''s command were mostly of low cultivation, not to mention the fact that they were injured. As a result, their movements were extremely slow, and even their travel speed was slowed down.


    Five days later, they had finally traveled more than half the way to the capital without stopping.


    There weren''t any pursuers chasing them from behind either. The journey could be considered smooth sailing, and everyone''s worries were finally relieved.


    However, right at this moment, Lin Xing was the first to notice that at the end of the River of Stars, a figure had appeared. Although it was very small, the divine power emitted by that figure could make all the stars lose their luster.


    His eyes rapidly turned, and when they clearly saw the appearance of the figure, his heart sank to the bottom again.


    Li Chuang.


    That man flew through the air in a flash. He was short, vigorous, and extremely ugly. He was one of the elders of the Sky Ascension Sect, Li Liu.


    "Heavens, a powerhouse of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm."


    When the crowd heard Lin Qi''s cry of alarm, they immediately turned pale with fright. Many of them fell to the ground, despair written all over their faces.


    There was nothing that could not be done. It completely exceeded the scope of mortals, and was no different from a true god. It was not something that could be stopped just by having a large number of people, and even if they had an army of five million people, they would still be massacred by it.


    Shifting the mountains and filling the seas, he pinched down with his bare hands. The ground beneath him shook, and the heavens collapsed and the earth cracked.


    "Calm down, brothers. Take your men and leave first. My men and I will stop Li Chuang to buy you some time." Lin Xing did not fall into disarray as he calmly spoke.


    "No, we''re here to stop him. Wake them up, brother, take them away." Lu Hen and Lin Qian''s eyes were like lightning as they disagreed.


    "No, no one can leave if we keep fighting. "Believe me, I''ll be fine." Lin Qi spoke in a sonorous and forceful voice. Without waiting for them to reply, he immediately ordered the two Death Soldiers to carry them away. When the others saw this, they also followed him.


    "Brother Xing, you have to be careful and stall for some time. Hurry up and come after us." The roars of two people came from not far away.


    The truth was, even after they said these words, their own hearts were not convinced. Although Lin Xing and these Death Soldiers were strong, it was still impossible for them to fight against a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant. There was no suspense at all.


    Lin Qi took a deep breath and waved his sleeve. The remaining Death Soldiers scattered and hid themselves in the forest. He just stood there alone with his eyes burning with cold flames.


    Suddenly, Li Chuang''s body landed on the ground. He looked at Lin Qi, who was standing in front of him, and a smirk appeared on his face.


    "I knew you would come and save them, so I had been keeping watch over the entire Red Luan Country. I did not expect you to actually come, but in the end, you were unable to escape my net. Since you''ve appeared today, there is no way you can escape anymore, so hand over the Supreme One''s secret technique and cripple your cultivation, and I''ll spare your life." Li Leng said in a low voice.


    "Elder Li''s planning and planning is indeed extraordinary, his calculations are really accurate. However, if you want me to hand over the Great Zun secret technique, it''s not impossible. My cultivation does not need to be crippled anymore. I can kill myself right in front of your face, but only on one condition. " Lin Qi''s lips turned purple. Against a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant, he was unable to remain calm.


    "Oh, it doesn''t matter what the conditions are."


    Li Chuang''s interest was piqued, and he couldn''t help but feel proud of himself. He wanted to keep all of the secret arts for himself. Since Lin Xing was so tactful, he might as well fulfill his last wish.

 C111

    "After my death, please treat my family well. I have no other requests." Lin Xing pouted and said.


    "Treat your family well? "I can guarantee that I won''t be angry at your family, but whether the Yin Master School can be as kind as me, that is not certain." Li Chuang smiled sinisterly.


    Lin Qi''s eyes dimmed as he deliberately took two steps back. Despair and unwillingness appeared on his face as he said, "Then, even if I were to die, I will not hand over the Supreme Realm secret technique to you."


    He took three steps forward and closed the distance between them. He sneered: "Do you think you still have the qualifications to negotiate with me?" I want to kill you now, like slaughtering a dog. "


    As he spoke, the unique aura of the speed of light was released. The entire mountain forest was trembling in fear, and the might was like a prison, enveloping the entire area.


    Lin Qi sighed deeply, and then said with a frown, "Besides the Great Honored Warrior Secret Art, I have another secret. This is also the reason why my cultivation level has increased so rapidly in such a short period of time. Don''t you want to know?"


    Li Chuang quivered as he recovered some of his aura and asked in surprise, "I am really curious about your secret. If you tell me everything, I can still spare your life."


    In fact, in the short span of a few months, Lin Xing had been able to cultivate from a mortal back to the Dao Division stage, which was something that many people did not notice.


    This secret was perhaps even more important than the Venerable One''s secret arts. His heart could not help but feel anticipation and endless greed and excitement.


    "It''s not enough. Like I said, you have to treat my family well. You have to protect them as well." Lin Qi said loudly.


    Li Chuang stared at him and spoke softly, "I agree to your last wish. As long as you tell me all your secrets, no one will dare to touch your General''s House."


    Lin Qi nodded his head bitterly. His eyes were uncertain. At the same time, he waved at Li Chuang, gesturing for him to come closer and speak.


    Li Chuang''s face lit up and he walked over with a cold smile. He was not prepared for this as Lin Zhi could not do much in front of him and could easily kill him with a flip of his hand.


    When he was two meters away from Lin Xing, Lin Xing''s expression suddenly turned cold. He took out a wooden sabre from his soul, and chopped out with the divine power of death.


    As Li Liu walked over, the pressure gradually intensified. He felt like he couldn''t move a muscle. If he didn''t act now, he wouldn''t have a chance.


    At such a close distance, Li Chuang had no time to dodge, and a white light subconsciously condensed in his hand, shooting out the blade. In his fury, another white light shot out and sent Lin Qi flying like a kite with its string cut, crashing into a thick tree trunk.


    When he retrieved the strand of white light, he didn''t even notice that the Death God Power that was attached to the blade had also been absorbed into his body.


    "You are courting death. Originally, I wanted to give you a quick death. But now, it seems that I am truly too merciful.


    Li Chuang was furious. Right after he said that, he had a weird feeling from his body. The Death God Power was frantically strangling his vitality in his body, and his right arm was quickly festering.


    "What the hell is this thing!"


    Li Chuang was extremely shocked, but he was still worthy of being a rider of the Heaven''s Perception. With a stuffy groan, he suppressed the Death God''s power. His arms stopped festering, and they slowly returned to normal.


    However, Lin Qi did not give him the chance. The path splitting death warriors hidden between the trees on both sides of the road rushed towards Li Chuang, bringing with them a fearsome aura.


    These people were like hungry wolves, and their bodies were extremely strong. If Li Chuang did not bring up a large amount of God Power, it would be difficult to kill them, but if he were to bring the God Power into play, it would be impossible to suppress the Death God Power.


    "Death Soldiers of the Giant Spirit Sect, hmph, all of you will die!"


    The Death God power was very strange, it also made it difficult for him, a Celestial Realm warrior, to remove it from his body or to expel it, so he could only suppress it. However, those Death Soldiers had used this kind of suicidal method to pounce on him, forcing him to only use half of his body''s power to suppress it.


    Moreover, every time he killed a person, the festering on his arms would increase in number. Moreover, it was spreading towards his body.


    The strange power in his body made even him, who was at the speed of lightning, feel a sense of evil. With a flash of white light, more than ten Death Soldiers were sent flying, and all of them died. Their corpses fell to the ground.


    After a short period of recovery, Lin Xing picked up the blade that had fallen not far from the ground and joined the battle. He was waiting at the side for an opportunity.


    His eyes were like a cold venomous snake, hiding among the many deathsworn that surrounded and killed Li Chuang, looking for Li Chuang''s weak point. Each slash of his blade was like a black dragon leaving its hole, fast as lightning, making Li Chuang feel as if he was a great threat and impossible to guard against.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Finally, under the violent assault of three hundred Death Soldiers, the Celestial Phenomenon Realm warrior revealed an opening. Lin Xing took advantage of this opening and used all his strength to slash down on Li Chuang''s right shoulder. Blood splattered all over Lin Qi''s body.


    Li Chuang howled in pain. He never thought he would suffer such a huge loss in the hands of Lin Xing and the rest, even losing a shoulder. At this moment, he quickly pulled out his left hand and crushed Mo Dao.


    After rolling on the ground for a few rounds, he quickly got up. Then, he took out the Black God Bow from the soul hole, nocked the arrow, and instantly pulled it into the shape of a full moon. He passed through the gaps in the bodies of the numerous Death Soldiers, accurately hitting Li Liu''s left wrist.


    He was still bleeding from his right shoulder, so he didn''t have enough time to stop. He didn''t expect his left wrist to be shot at again, and with the surrounding Giant Spirit Sect Death Soldiers taking turns attacking him, he felt a trace of fear in his heart.


    He wanted to retreat, but he was unwilling. With a wave of his palm, he sent a group of deathsworn flying as fast as lightning towards Lin Xing.


    He was incomparably powerful, and the pressure of the Heaven Smiting Stage was fully exerted at this moment. His body flickered, and he appeared right in front of Lin Xing.


    Lin Xing also encountered an unprecedented crisis. With a face full of panic, he brought up Feng Li at this critical moment.


    The wind blew strongly, and the power of a prehistoric beast descended upon him. The entire thing was imposing, and the trees in the area were moving crazily. He pulled on the air above his head with his big hands, and a layer of magical and ancient beast''s might formed on his chest.


    At the same time, the incoming Li Liu had already launched a fatal attack on him. His palm turned into a blade and the fire in his hair burned like a small brazier.


    "He blocked it ¡­"


    The remaining Dao Seeking Deathsworn wanted to save him, but it was too late. As soon as they moved, they saw Lin Xing launch his defense and successfully block the flaming palm blade.

 C112

    Blocked...


    The lemon wind that Lin Xing brought out made him look like an ancient beast. His aura was intimidating and his eyes shone with a murderous light. A wave of air rushed up to the sky and successfully blocked Li Chuang''s palm strike.


    All the Death Soldiers were shocked when they saw this scene, including Li Chuang himself. They all felt that it was inconceivable.


    What kind of expert was the Celestial Phenomenon Realm? That was a terrifying existence that could change the heavens and change the earth, capable of anything. Even a Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator would not be able to block a finger of his strength.


    To everyone, this was a shocking matter.


    Those Death Soldiers in particular felt as if they were dreaming. In the battle just now, they were well aware of how terrifying Li Meng was. With a wave of his finger, he had crippled them. They thought that Lin Xing would die because of this, but they did not expect him to successfully block it.


    "What kind of power is this!"


    Li Leng''s face darkened. It was as though a mountain had been pressed down on his heart as he roared loudly in shock. He could not believe that Lin Xing was really at the Dao Division realm.


    Although Feng Li blocked his attack, Lin Xing was still injured. His internal organs were trembling, and a heart-wrenching pain emanated from his body. He immediately let out a furious roar and threw out a punch, which was accompanied by a boundless aura of desolation.


    He was fighting back!


    Facing an individual at the Celestial Realm, he was actually able to retaliate. No one would believe him if they spread the news, but he had actually appeared in front of them.


    Lin Xing''s ultimate counterattack was something even Li Chuang did not expect. He swung his left arm in front of him and easily neutralized Lin Qi''s attack, but that heavy blow also forced him to take three steps back.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    Li Chuang stopped and took in a breath of cold air. He was more frightened than anyone else than him. Lin Xing was too heaven defying, he had not expected this to happen.


    At this moment, that group of deathsworn charged forward again. He let out an angry roar and killed a group of people. His body flashed as he charged into the sky.


    If he continued fighting, even if he could kill all of Lin Qi''s remaining hundred or so Death Soldiers, he himself would have to pay a heavy price. He did not want to bear this consequences.


    Moreover, the figure that he left behind now appeared rather miserable! Saying something that was hard to listen to was like running away.


    As soon as his feet touched the ground, Lin Xing and the remaining Death Soldiers let out a long breath as if they had been relieved of a heavy burden. They were finally able to withstand this terrifying attack.


    Lin Qi bit his lips. He felt a sharp pain coming from his chest, causing a pained look to appear on his face. However, what hurt him more was his heart.


    Li Meng was extremely powerful, and could not even be compared to a cultivator of the Dao Division. In a short span of time, he had killed seventy to eighty death soldiers, and fresh, bloody corpses littered the ground. The remaining people were also more or less injured from the shock. Some even bled from their seven orifices and became dazed.


    Lin Qi took out the few pills he had left in the Soul Cave and fed them to the severely injured person. However, he did not swallow a single one. This action was very warm, causing many people to reveal their true feelings.


    After a short period of recovery, Lin Xing was worried again. He said seriously, "Although Li Chuang has retreated, he will not let this go easily. This place is not safe. Everyone, quickly follow me to the capital. We will pass this crisis."


    More than a hundred Death Soldiers nodded in agreement. Soon after, Lin Xing took the lead and ran away, followed by the rest of the group.


    Those who were severely injured also recovered some of their energy after the effects of the pills. Although they had internal injuries, they still had quite a bit of physical strength.


    Four hours later, Lin Xing did not manage to catch up to Lu Hen''s group. Instead, he noticed the marks he had made along the way. He looked ahead, and with a wave of his hand, the people behind him followed closely.


    At this very moment, the moon had not risen yet. A red sun slowly rose from the mountains in the east corner. The sky was as red as blood, beautiful and magnificent. Behind those red clouds, there seemed to be a hidden terror.


    Suddenly, three balls of golden light flew out, moving as fast as lightning, moving at a thousand miles in an instant. The golden light was incomparably dazzling, and every single one of them was like a small sun, overshadowing the red sun in the east.


    Bringing with it a sky-high power, the energy of the universe surged towards Lin Xing in an earth-shattering manner.


    "Sky Sect, Golden Scale Guards."


    Lin Qi felt a chill run down his spine, as if he had fallen into a deep abyss. His heart sank to the bottom, and he felt a bit of despair.


    The power exuded by these three golden balls of light was no weaker than Li Liu''s.


    Who would''ve thought that in order to capture Lin Xing and retrieve the Supreme Realm secret arts, the Deities Templar would even send out their Golden Scale Guards.


    The Golden Scale Guard was the central pillar of the Dancing Sky Sect, and it was all trained and formed by the Great Elder. The lowest standard was to have a cultivation of the Heaven''s Perception Realm, they were responsible for apprehending the traitors of the Dancing Sky Sect, patrolling the mountains and rivers, and killing all potential threats in their cradle.


    However, most people could not see the Golden Scale Guards. They appeared and disappeared mysteriously, and only in major incidents would they reveal their real bodies. Even Lin Qi had never seen them.


    They were all two meters tall, and their scales were glossy and shiny. Their eyes were cold and ruthless, even more fearless than the dead warriors of the Giant Spirit Sect, and they did not have the slightest emotion. They were just like cold war machines, only capable of obeying orders.


    More than one hundred Death Soldiers were also horrified. Previously, when they had pushed back Li Chuang, they had lost seventy to eighty people, which was extremely painful to deal with. Now that three warriors of the same cultivation level as Li Chuang had appeared, they were unable to take it anymore.


    "This place is only fifty miles away from the capital, hurry and run in this direction!" Lin Xing shouted at the top of his lungs, waking up the group of warriors and running in the direction of the capital.


    However, these three Golden Scale Guards were two full realms higher than them. A thousand miles was not an easy distance to travel.


    The three Golden Scale Guards flew through the air like three meteors streaking across the horizon like lightning. In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived in front of Lin Xing and more than a hundred Death Soldiers.


    The three of them wielded different weapons. Each of them wielded a five-meter long giant golden crystal sword. They waved their swords across the void, and a layer of sharp blade lights appeared out of nowhere, chopping downwards.


    The ten-odd deathsworn couldn''t dodge in time, and were all killed by the blade radiance. Their flesh split open, and their brains flew everywhere. Corpses flew into the sky.


    It was unrivalled in power and invincible. It was as if a sun god had descended upon the earth, judged the earth, and massacred all living things.


    "Protect the general and retreat!" Protect the general and retreat!


    A Death Soldier roared angrily after being frightened. He pulled a large group of people to charge towards the three Golden Scale Guards and fearlessly rushed forward to kill them.


    Although Lin Qi was not a member of their Giant Spirit Sect, he was their master since he possessed the orders. Their mission was to follow the orders and protect their master even if they had to die.


    Lin Qi suddenly turned his head and saw that the group of people who had rushed up had been cut into pieces by one of the soldiers. His heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife.


    His whole body turned cold, causing the air around him to freeze slightly. His eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were clenched harder than steel.

 C113

    Lin Xing was carried away by two Death Soldiers. He took this opportunity to run another 20 miles.


    He knew that this twenty miles of road was exchanged for the lives of a large group of Giant Spirit Sect warriors. He could not help but feel endless hatred and hatred. Endless killing intent was born from the bottom of his heart.


    His mind returned to reality, and after fighting only for twenty miles, the three Golden Scale Guards once again linked up and crossed the distance with a single step.


    There was still thirty miles left, and they couldn''t possibly escape.


    The golden guardian brandished his greatsword once more, locking down on Lin Qi''s position. This was because he was the one with the highest numbers of people. If he swung his sword, a large number of people would die.


    Everyone fell into despair, including Lin Xing. No matter how many spells he had and how much strength he had, it was impossible for him to block the strongest attack from a Heavenly Lake Stage cultivator. However, no one was timid, and no one was afraid.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, in this moment of life and death crisis, a hazy, holy and incomparably powerful Immortal Qi flew over from far away and completely dissolved that sword attack, saving Lin Xing and the others'' lives.


    After which, a white-robed female appeared, floating through the air. Her white robe fluttered in the wind, exuding an extraordinary aura. This was none other than the young boy, Leng Ning.


    As soon as the three golden-armored men saw the brat appear, without a word, two of them charged forward, begging to stop her. The last remaining person continued to rush towards Lin Xing and the others.


    Kid Liang and the two armored warriors clashed head on. They fought each other with ease and were able to suppress the two golden-armored men. As streams of immortal qi flew out, they felt their scalps go numb.


    Just as the last soldier was about to brandish his sword again, a figure dashed from the distant earth. In a flash, the figure arrived in front of him and soared into the air, rushing towards him.


    This was a young man whose clothes fluttered in the wind as he attacked ferociously. His entire body seemed to have been formed from the heavens and the earth, and every attack was accompanied by the roar of dragons and tigers.


    But his realm was only at the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    He was the Giant Spirit Sect''s Heavenly Cauldron Monster, a soul figure in the younger generation of the Giant Spirit Land. Even though he was at the Heaven''s Lake Stage, he was not at a disadvantage at all, and even faintly held the upper hand. His physique was peerless, and every fist he threw out dealt a ton of damage.


    "Giant Creed!"


    Lin Qi suddenly understood. His heart trembled as he looked at that proud figure. He knew in his heart that the gap between him and Ju Xin Si was not small at all.


    If it was the him of the past, perhaps he would not be his match.


    Ju Xin was not only powerful enough to shake the Great Spirit Land, even in the eyes of the geniuses of the various sects, he was an existence that people could only look up to and not touch.


    Especially the group of Death Soldiers beside him. When they looked up to Giant Spirit, their faces were filled with excitement and fanaticism, because Giant Spirit Stone was the hope for the Giant Spirit Sect to rise to prominence in the future.


    Just as they were in a daze, a golden-armored man was knocked over by the brat and fell to the ground. He was riddled with wounds and his golden armor was split open in several places.


    Little Cold and Giant Remains were both strong opponents. If they continued to fight, it would be impossible for them to even leave.


    In reality, this brat had already had the chance to kill him. However, he didn''t want to start a fight with the Sky Sect, so he stopped.


    When the three of them retreated, Giant Spirit seemed to still be angry. Just now, they had killed over a hundred Giant Spirit Sect Death Soldiers, so they couldn''t help but chase after them and punch out a few more times.


    The youth landed on the ground, glancing at Lin Qi indifferently. With a flick of his sleeves, a white light descended upon Lin Qi and the group of death warriors.


    The white light shone on their bodies like holy light, and their wounds began to slowly heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Their faces gradually became rosy, and even the dust on their clothes was completely dispelled.


    At the same time, Giant Spirit had also landed on the ground. He glared at Lin Qi with ice-cold eyes that contained a murderous intent. This time, because of Lin Xing, the Giant Spirit Sect lost more than two hundred elites, leaving only eighty or so people.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that this boy was cold on the side, he would have definitely let Lin Xing die here.


    Lin Qi sighed helplessly, unable to come up with an opinion. His heart was filled with guilt and shame. Because of him, three hundred of his men had suffered heavy casualties. If it weren''t for this brat, he would have been completely annihilated.


    "Have my brothers returned?" Lin Xing asked the kid.


    "Hmph."


    After hearing these words, Giant Spirit became even angrier. Because of him, three hundred warriors had suffered heavy casualties, but Lin Xing was still concerned about his brother.


    "They have already safely returned to the mansion. There is nothing much to talk about here, so let''s go back first."


    After the youth replied, his body was covered in a white mist, which then enveloped everyone within. He then steered them high into the sky.


    After a while, their figures appeared in the general''s manor. After everyone landed smoothly on the ground, they followed the young lad to the main hall.


    After inhaling the air that he hadn''t breathed in in a long time, Lin Xing''s face was filled with bitterness and bitterness. He was actually quite afraid that he would never be able to return.


    He could see that there were a lot of people in the manor, and these people were involved with the general''s manor. They were being hunted down by the Deities Templar and the Yin Building Sect, and those who came to seek refuge discovered the soldiers who were blocking the road at the border.


    Walking into the main hall, Lin Xing saw many familiar faces that made his eyes fill with tears. For example, Lin Shen, Gu Yuan, Ah Shan ¡­


    "Young Master is back." Ashan cried out in alarm. He and Lin Xing were the most intimate of each other, and so he immediately threw himself at Ashan.


    Lin Shen, Gu Yuan and the six elephants all walked over and looked at him with a gratified expression. Lin Shen walked up and patted his shoulder. She couldn''t help but sigh and say, "It''s good that you''re back. It''s good that you''re back."


    "Your son is incompetent and has implicated the entire general''s manor, but he does not have the ability to pass through." With a plop, Lin Xing dropped to his knees. Tears the size of beans dripped onto the ground, clearly audible.


    Upon seeing his actions, everyone was emotionally moved and sympathized with Lin Xing. They had all heard of his achievements, and it was indeed not easy.


    "Wake up, quickly get up. I believe that you will definitely return to your peak state and spread the name of our Lin Clan." Tears streamed down Lin Shen''s face as he helped Lin Xing up.


    Lin Qi''s face was filled with an incomparable determination. Under everyone''s attentive gaze, he closed his eyes and then abruptly opened them. He shot out a sharp ray of light and forcefully lowered his head.


    "Fairy, this matter is over. Can you come with us?"


    Suddenly, a voice as sharp as a little girl''s rang out in the hall, breaking the tense atmosphere.


    Looking in the direction of the voice, Lin Xing saw that the speaker was Ye Feihua, dressed in a strange disguise, looking towards the goddess.


    "Leave?"


    Suspicion arose in Lin Xing''s heart. Ye Feihua and Ju Se appearing in the general''s manor did not seem normal.

 C114

    The youth coldly pursed his lips, his eyes pausing on the faces of the people from the General''s House. He then looked outside of the main hall, his clean eyes filled with a trace of reluctance and not being able to bear it for even a moment.


    After pondering for a moment, he said to Ye Feihua, "Wait a little longer. I''m worried about following you guys right now."


    "Waiting? According to the original plan, our sect''s operation was delayed for so long. Fairy, do you think we can afford to wait? Moreover, this is your sect''s immortal elder''s order; he wants you to follow us and act as we do. " Ye Feihua sneered, and then said in an amorous tone.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing finally understood. The reason Ye Feihua appeared in the general''s manor was because he was trying to trick this brat.


    In fact, after the unremitting efforts of the Giant Spirit Sect''s formation masters, the seal on Big Tomb had already been lifted ten days ago. However, the Yin Master School and the other hidden experts definitely wouldn''t let them return to Big Tomb so easily.


    In order not to alert the enemy, the Giant Spirit Sect did not act rashly. They sent people to the other absolute sects to help them and paid a huge price to form an alliance with the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. After all of these were prepared, they were ready to take action.


    Although the cultivation of this brat was also very high, in this kind of situation, it was still not enough. However, her status was still a Flying Immortal and she could be used as a deterrent, so the Giant Spirit Sect forced the kid to participate in the battle. In the end, when the benefits were huge, the Celestial Sect of Wonders agreed readily and sent out Ma Que and Zi Yin to deliver the order.


    After a moment of thought, Lin Xing looked at Ye Feihua with a strange expression. He was sure that Ye Feihua was behind this.


    Ye Feihua''s eyebrows drooped as he noticed his strange expression. He couldn''t help but smile, before turning his gaze back to Cool Breeze.


    Ye Feihua was still domineering even in the face of this heavenly lake realm fairy. It was clear that she was strong enough in her heart.


    "If I leave now, this place will be in dire straits." I can''t bear it.


    "This is not something I can handle. Fairy, you should know that our sect''s matters are even bigger. If one of our matters is not handled well, then blood will flow like rivers, and life will be annihilated." Ye Feihua said righteously.


    The kid was shaking his head and frowning. For a moment, he couldn''t make a decision. This caused his fairy to fall into a dilemma.


    The youth''s actions were very warm, causing Lin Xing, the Divine General Lin and the rest to reveal their true feelings. They were all moved beyond belief as they sincerely and sincerely gazed at this white-clothed woman.


    "I''ll go with you. It''ll be much safer without my General''s Estate." Lin Xing stood up straight.


    "You? "You should just stay in the manor. If you go, you will only be a burden."


    Moreover, not long ago at the Soul Molding Mountain, Lin Xing had led a huge army of 100,000 to chase him down for two thousand miles. Every time he thought of this, he would fly into a rage, and this was the biggest stain on his life for a proud son of heaven, and it was simply a humiliation.


    The boy Liu muttered to himself for a long time before saying, "Sure, you can come with me."


    Then, she looked at Ye Feihua with a pleading look.


    Little Liang was an exalted goddess, and for the sake of the safety of the general''s manor, he had to act subserviently. This was truly inconceivable. Lin Xing and Lin Shen''s heart was filled with warmth, and they imprinted this favor on their hearts.


    Ye Feihua naturally understood the meaning of this brat''s words. Curling her lips into a smile, she turned to the group of Heaven Smiting realm elites beside her and ordered, "Lei Ying, for you to command twenty of you to stay and defend this place, even if it means sacrificing your life, you have to protect every single blade of grass and tree in this mansion."


    "Understood." With Lei Ying in the lead, the group of Heaven Smiting Stage elites replied with a sonorous tone.


    "Is that enough?" Ye Feihua said coldly while looking at Lin Xing and the brat.


    Ye Feihua''s gaze stayed mostly on the youth''s face as he watched her expression change. She kept having the feeling that this child was betting on the future of the general''s estate, or perhaps the future of a certain person. It wasn''t as simple as it seemed to be.


    Could it be Lin Xing?


    Doubts arose in his heart. In truth, even Ye Feihua felt that he could not decipher them.

 C115

    After reuniting with his family for a short time, Lin Xing and the brat left with Ye Feihua and the rest of the Giant Spirit Sect experts without even breathing out a breath of hot air.


    Before their departure, Ye Feihua had held more than twenty experts of the Heaven Smiting Stage back in the manor, allowing the two of them to stand by the front lines of the Divine Spirit Sect with all their hearts.


    They flew in the air and arrived in the sky above Black Wind Mountain in a quarter of an hour. They descended in front of the experts of the Giant Spirit Sect.


    There was a bottomless black pit there, and beside it was a thousand-meter-long black coffin. From within, one could vaguely sense a rich and ancient aura, as well as the deafening sound of a heartbeat.


    Inside the huge black coffin lay the body of the Great Zang Zhen. The surroundings were filled with strong warriors, their eyes were dense and vigilant.


    Beyond them were the hundred-meter-tall giants. They were as strong as tigers and had ferocious glints in their eyes. The air around them surged as they slaughtered all the enemies.


    The area was densely packed with experts. Streams of air swirled about, causing the sky and earth to change color. Even those in the Heaven Speeding Stage were not enough. The head of the Giant Spirit Sect and the group of elders were even more so powerful.


    "Fairy, I''ve finally brought you here." When the Divine Spirit Sect Master saw the arrival of the youth, he immediately led a group of people to welcome him. His face was filled with joy and he was ready to move now.


    The young lad smiled and bowed towards the Giant Spirit Sect leader, saying, "Because I have things to attend to, I can''t come for a while. I''ve made the sect leader wait for a long time, I hope you can forgive me."


    Hearing this, even at the age of the Giant Spirit Sect''s leader, no matter how scheming he was, he couldn''t help but roll his eyes in his heart. At the same time, he directed his gaze towards the inconspicuous young man beside him.


    Just for the sake of a small general''s house, the goddess pushed and shoved all over the place, ignoring the matter with the Great Honored Warrior. It was impossible to not be angry, he thought.


    However, on the surface, he still smiled with a face full of flowers and said, "It''s fine, I am already extremely grateful that I was able to accompany my sect through this crisis."


    "Sect Master is too courteous, I also came under orders." I hope we can do our best. " The kid smiled back.


    "If you meet with danger along the way, I will not ask for your help. I will only ask for you to stay by our side and not leave. I will also send experts to protect you." The Divine Spirit Sect Master said.


    "Thank you, Sect Master, for your love."


    The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader''s intention was clear and cold. He blinked his watery eyes and spoke in a gentle voice.


    "Since the goddess has already arrived, my sect will begin to move. In these few days, I have sensed that there are a lot of tyrannical auras around here that are hiding in the dark and eyeing us covetously. We can no longer stay here."


    In recent days, although he appeared calm on the surface, there were actually a lot of people lurking around. Many experts were hiding in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to strike, they wouldn''t let the Giant Spirit Sect easily send the Great Sage Zhong back, but he was calm on the surface, and Lin Qi wouldn''t be able to detect the hidden auras.


    "I shall follow the orders of the grand master."


    The experts around him shouted in unison, their faces full of malice. When they saw the thousand metre huge coffin, they calmed down and became fearless.


    However, what was strange was that they did not use their ability to fly, but chose to walk instead. The four hundred-meter-tall giants directly carried the nine yin coffin on their shoulders, and with one step, they shook the heavens and earth.


    Their formation was strong, and while they were walking, they had set up a defensive formation, protecting the Nine Yin Coffins in the center. It could be said that they were impregnable.


    This kind of formation was enough to make the experts hidden in the dark feel desperate and not reveal any flaws.


    However, the expressions on the faces of the experts from the Giant Spirit Sect, as well as those of Lin Qi and Little Liang, weren''t relaxed at all. Instead, they revealed an unprecedented look of seriousness.


    Even Ye Feihua was frowning. There was an expression of worry on his face, without the slightest trace of the one who had planned everything previously.


    Five hundred miles away, the sky had already turned completely dark. Dark clouds covered the sky, and the sky was completely dark.


    Lin Xing was a cultivator of the Heavenly Origin Stage. The moment the black aura appeared, it caused his heart to tremble. This was because he could feel that the black aura did not originate from nature.


    The Spirit Master''s expression also became unsettled. He stopped and ordered everyone to stop. Then, with a wave of his hand, three powerful cultivators of the Heaven''s Perception Realm rushed out from the formation and pounced towards the dark aura.


    However, something strange happened. After flying into the area, the three Chalcedony Realm experts disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was as if they had been devoured by a black hole.


    Those three were at the Celestial Charging Realm! Just like this, it had disappeared without a trace, leaving everyone feeling shocked and shocked.


    "Black Curtain Killing Array, Ancient Death Formation."


    Ye Feihua was not only extremely intelligent, but he was also very experienced and knowledgeable. He first called out the origin of the dark aura in front of him, and his face turned incomparably gloomy.


    Those who had heard of this formation sucked in a breath of cold air.


    The expressions of the Giant Spirit Sect''s leader and the group of experts beside him changed again and again.


    The lips of the youth behind the white sand quivered slightly. He opened his mouth and asked Ye Feihua, "Since you recognize this formation, do you have a way to break it?"


    When the others heard this, they immediately shifted their gaze to Ye Feihua, their eyes filled with anticipation.


    Ye Feihua pondered for a moment, before finally shaking his head. Helplessly, he sighed and said, "This is an absolute array, it has no solution. The only way is for experts to charge into the formation and kill all the people who laid the formation. "


    "This ¡­"


    Everyone was stunned. In a situation where the enemy was unclear, even a top rank expert rushing in would be equivalent to courting death.


    Moreover, as he felt the boundless aura being emanated from the darkness, even the head of the Giant Spirit Sect couldn''t help changing his expression. It meant that there was certainly an expert whose cultivation was no weaker than his hidden within it.


    Unless the Giant Spirit Sect''s leader personally led a group of people to charge in, only then would they have the hope of breaking through the array. However, who would protect the Nine Yin Coffins?


    "Giant Spirit Sect leader, please listen to me. Leave behind the Nine Yin Coffin. I can let bygones be bygones for the small fight."


    Suddenly, a domineering voice rang out from the darkness, resounding through the wilderness. Before the voice could fade away, a black figure walked out from the darkness. His steps were subtle, as if he didn''t know where he would go next.


    His entire body was covered in black qi, and his appearance was indiscernible. One could vaguely see the outline of a human figure, and there was a purple flame circling around his head. There was a black and white eyeball hidden inside, looking like an eye.


    Moreover, his entire body was like an ocean, and his power was monstrous. With a single step, it was as if he could crush the heavens.


    "Sect Master Yin, Demon Flame. You''re saying we should let bygones be bygones? "My Giant Spirit Sect also doesn''t have any plans to apologize. You want me to give up on my ancestor? You''re really wishful thinking. Today, I''ll kill whoever dares to stand in my way." The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader fiercely countered.


    Asking him to give up the Big Tomb Slaughter? There was no room for negotiation at all. It was absolutely impossible.

 C116

    "Giant Spirit Sect, heh heh, you really don''t care about the price in order to welcome me back." But there are so many of us, can you kill them all? Aren''t you worried that you''ll bring a calamity down on your Giant Spirit Sect? "


    The might of the devil fire was like a prison, enveloping everything under the heavens. It overlooked everything beneath, as if it was trying to judge the world. Every word was like a thunderclap, making people''s ears ring.


    "Yeah! Sect Head Giant Spirit, can you kill all of them?"


    Another person walked out from the darkness. Black gas lingered around him and his appearance could not be seen. However, his might was similarly overflowing. He was also a master level expert.


    "You are too arrogant. If you have the guts, then come and challenge the formation. Even with our status, we would not even bother to argue."


    Following that, another expert walked out from the darkness. Black gas similarly surrounded the area, intentionally concealing his identity.


    And then, to the astonishment of the people below, seven more people walked out from the darkness.


    Each of them was incomparably powerful and unparalleled.


    Including Demonfire, at this moment, a total of nine sect heads appeared.


    Aside from the Devil Flame, these nine people all had their true appearances concealed. However, one thing was certain: each of them was a powerful expert, or an old monster that could hide from the world.


    Although the people from the Giant Spirit Sect weren''t willing to give up and weren''t afraid, they were truly in despair.


    This kind of luxurious lineup had never been seen before, and it made everyone feel terrified.


    "You all ¡­ Are you really planning to fight to the end with my Giant Spirit Sect''s blood? "


    The Giant Spirit Sect leader''s voice was extremely gloomy and cold, and he was not afraid. For the sake of Big Tomb, he was going to risk it all.


    Even though these nine people''s appearances were all concealed, he didn''t need to guess to know that they were experts from several nearby great sects. They had all planned to kill them here.


    Looking at the situation, it was almost impossible for the Giant Spirit Sect to bring Big Tomb Slaughter back to the Giant Spirit Land. And now, he and the Giant Spirit Sect had stepped on the same old boat, if the Giant Spirit Sect were to lose, then he would not have a good ending.


    Of course, with the arrival of the nine Sect Leaders, the outcome of the battle was already decided. There was no suspense anymore.


    "Do you still recognize me, Giant Spirit Sect''s head?"


    At this moment, a black shadow moved away from his body and revealed his real body. This was a young man with a pale face and no beard. His eyes were gentle, especially when he looked at the Giant Spirit Sect leader.


    "Cough, cough ¡­"


    As he spoke, he held a piece of white cloth in his hand and lightly coughed a few times. His face was pale and weak, as if he was terminally ill, as if even a gust of wind could blow him over.


    "Ghost Saint Yuan Ming."


    However, when he revealed his true appearance, many of the elders of the Giant Spirit Sect immediately paled and cried out in alarm.


    Even the other eight black shadows in the air couldn''t help but cry out in surprise when they saw his appearance.


    It was obvious that he had not known of his true identity.


    Although he gave people a sickly look, no one dared to look down on him.


    Below him, Lin Xing, Ju Xin, and the rest all revealed puzzled expressions, indicating that they had never heard of this name before. However, when they looked at him, their eyes were very serious.


    "He is the sect master of the Evil Ghost Sect. Many years ago, he had a battle with the sect master, and in the end, he was defeated. The battle that year injured his soul, and he has not recovered from it until now." Ye Feihua explained.


    "So that''s how it is. No wonder he has such hatred for the school head."


    Giant Thread clenched his fists. Although his current cultivation was not worth mentioning in front of these experts, as long as he had enough time, he had the confidence to completely stomp these experts from the various sects under his feet.


    Lin Qi had heard of the Demonic Ghost Sect''s name before. It was a branch of the Nether Sect, and its overall strength was slightly stronger than the Yin Sect''s. This was because the evil ghost sect cultivated a forbidden technique, which was strange and ruthless.


    However, the evil ghost sect was not very close. It seemed like Mo Yan had already been prepared. When the battle at Black Wind Mountain started, he should have already sent people over to the evil ghost sect to get help.


    When the Sect Leader saw the pale face, his pupils suddenly shrank. He then said in a low voice, "You''ve lost to me in a fight, and you still dare to come in front of me and be so arrogant? "If you do not leave now, it will not be as simple as injuring your soul back then. I will definitely destroy you in body and spirit this time."


    "Haha ¡­"


    His expression was fixed on a resentful look as he released a boundless hatred, saying, "Do you know, over the years, every single day, I have been tormented by the soul, causing me to suffer a fate worse than death, and all of this is thanks to you? Today, with the great army suppressing the land, you still dare to boast shamelessly, if I don''t burn all the bones of your Giant Spirit Sect members to ashes, you won''t be letting down your arrogance."


    He opened his mouth and spat out a drop of blood essence. The drop of blood essence plummeted down, then rose in the air and turned into a sea of blood that pressed down on the Giant Spirit Sect disciples.


    "Hmph, let me see just how much strength you''ve gained over the years."


    With an angry roar, the Sect Leader rose into the air and sent out a fist imprint at the same time. The two of them collided into each other.


    A large amount of blood blossomed and floated down from the sky. It was as if a rain of blood had rained down on the trees and flowers below. The vegetation immediately withered and turned into a puddle of black water.


    The elders of the Giant Spirit Sect had long since been prepared for this, so they had long since pulled up a barrier in the air to block off all the blood.


    In the sky, the two fought. It was as if the sky was going to fall and the earth was going to fall. Fortunately, it was high in the sky, otherwise, this land would have been torn apart or even sunk.


    Since the Giant Spirit Sect doesn''t know how to appreciate favors, then we shouldn''t just stand there. It''s time for us to take action, I''ve received the secret report, they''ve long sent people to send reinforcements to the sect, because the sect is too far away, so the troops they sent out have not arrived yet. Furthermore, there are experts from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery who are rushing over as well.


    The devil flame''s voice was fierce. The eye on the head continued to expand and shrink, looking extremely sharp.


    However, Lin Xing had heard that the Heavy Sect was a sect with a body stronger than the Celestial Sect of Wonders. It was like a monster that could attract the attention of the younger generation, and it was said that there were many of them, making it a true hegemony of the world.


    When Devil Flame''s words came out, the remaining seven sect masters also expressed their agreement. Once the people from the Profound Sky Sect and Heavy Sect arrived, it would be too late for them to make a move.


    In the blink of an eye, eight people moved at the same time. They all used shocking magical techniques, and some of them even unleashed supreme secret arts. Instantly, the heaven and earth began to tremble, and the sky began to shake.


    They were all supreme experts here and were completely capable of using the Supreme Realm secret techniques to the peak of perfection. So, their might gave the people below a feeling that it was as if the sky had fallen and the earth had crumbled.


    Although the Giant Spirit Sect Sovereign was entangled with the Ghost Saint, the Elders of the Giant Spirit Sect were no pushovers. Three experts of the same strength as the Giant Spirit Sect head immediately flew out to meet them.

 C117

    Boom ¡­


    A great battle broke out. A group of Sect Master level experts engaged in a chaotic battle. One technique after another and surging energy swept across the sky, causing the sky and earth to lose their color. It was a horrifying scene.


    Other than the Giant Spirit Sect Sovereign being entangled by the Ghost Saint of Yuanming, there was also a group of Elders overseeing the Giant Spirit Sect. Some of them were even slightly stronger than the sect master in terms of cultivation.


    The most eye-catching was an old man. His hair was white, his face full of wrinkles, and he looked like a lamp that had run out of oil. However, his skin was shiny, and was filled with vitality, his body was comparable to a divine beast.


    He was Gongsun Oak, the Great Elder of the Giant Spirit Sect. His cultivation was at the peak and was even stronger than the Giant Spirit Sect Master.


    Moreover, there were five elders with cultivations comparable to Sect Master level characters who each fought against a black shadow.


    He had blocked all seven attacks.


    At this moment, there was still one more person that no one could stop. This was the Demon Flame, and he stepped through the air and approached the Giant Spirit Sect step by step. The surging nether energy almost made a big hole in the sky.


    The Giant Spirit Sect''s side had already sent out all of their experts, leaving behind only those with weaker cultivations. Of course, those with weaker cultivations were only a bit weaker than the sect head. At least, they were a hundred times stronger than that brat.


    Even though Ye Feihua was scheming, she was helpless in the face of absolute strength. She couldn''t help but be dazed.


    Kid Liang, Lin Qi and Giant Leviathan also felt powerless. Even the most powerful of the three Kid was nothing but an ant in front of the Devil Flame.


    You only need to move your fingers to turn them into ashes.


    "Protect the Nine Yin Coffin." An expert shouted. With a wave of his right arm, he flew above the Nine Yin Coffin, blocking in front of the Demon Flame.


    He was currently the strongest within the camp, and as he stared at the demonic flame, his eyes narrowed as a sinister light flashed past them.


    "Hmph, overestimating yourself." Whoever blocks me shall die. "


    The eye on the head of the Devil Flame suddenly shot out an infinitely elongated red beam, shooting towards the Giant Spirit Sect camp. Its destructive power was incomparable, and it directly split the ground into two halves.


    The expert blocking the path had a look of horror on his face. Subconsciously, he circulated the Blood Qi in his body. He was a supreme body cultivator, so he was proud of his physical body. That was why he was prepared to use his physical body to block the red light.


    His skin immediately turned golden, emitting light and heating up. The fluctuations were astonishing, as if he turned into a small sun, dazzling and dazzling.


    Even though he was using all of his abilities, when that red light hit him, he could only resist for two seconds. He couldn''t hold on any longer, and his body was directly exterminated, then evaporated.


    The red light continued to shoot out and its target landed on a hundred-meter-tall giant who was carrying a Nine Yin Coffin. His chest was penetrated and a huge bloody hole formed there.


    Boom ¡­


    After struggling for about two seconds, his life force was completely gone. His huge body collapsed with a loud bang and the corner of the Nine Yin Coffin on his shoulder also fell to the ground, causing the surroundings to shake.


    "Withdraw and protect the Old Ancestor with all your might."


    When the Giant Spirit Master who was fighting with the Netherworld Ghost Saint saw this scene, his expression immediately changed. He cried out in surprise, then called out to the other experts of the Giant Spirit Sect and all retreated backwards.


    However, their actions were too slow. The demonic flame continued to send out red light towards the Nine Yin Coffin, and was definitely going to split it into pieces first. Seeing this scene, everyone in the Giant Spirit Sect went crazy.


    The person inside was their ancestor. Although the red light could not destroy his body and could only destroy the Nine Yin Coffins, it could not tolerate others from desecrating him.


    However, those who were near couldn''t be stopped. The Giant Spirit Sect members who went out to fight were too far away to stop them even if they wanted to.


    At this critical moment, a majestic energy swept over from far away and suddenly turned into a giant hand seal. It tore open a big hole in the killing array and sent the devil fire flying with a slap, stopping his movements.


    "A Morning Star old monster ¡­"


    The Demon Flame immediately reacted, but even with his strength, he couldn''t stop it. He was directly sent flying hundreds of miles away. Although he wasn''t injured, he still had a face full of shock as he cried out.


    He could sense that the giant hand had been lenient, or else he would have lost his life.


    As he shifted his gaze to the black curtain array, he saw that a long hole had been cut open in the originally dark space. A large amount of starlight poured down from there like a river, as if the heavens had caved in.


    Lin Xing was dumbstruck as he watched this scene. This was a true peerless powerhouse who controlled laws and regulations of the world. He could do almost anything, and his strength was infinitely close to that of the legendary Great Honored Warrior.


    "Jiu Yao, you old thing. Do you still want to be a bit shameless? This is a small fight between the younger generation. As old people, we shouldn''t interfere."


    Suddenly, an old voice came from the direction of the Yin Court, bringing with it an endless amount of dark energy, which filled up the hole in the black curtain of the killing array, blocking out a large amount of starlight, and causing the dark energy to cover the entire land.


    From his tone, it was obvious that he was an old monster from the Yin Master School, and that giant hand was also an elder from the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "Sigh ¡­"


    A helpless sigh came from the Giant Spirit Land. The voice lingered in the sky for a while before disappearing in the dust.


    It wasn''t that he didn''t want to make a move, but in all four directions, there were similarly old monsters of the sect''s rank eyeing him covetously. This made him feel extremely helpless and powerless.


    "All of you, retreat."


    Taking this opportunity, all the experts from the Giant Spirit Sect that were fighting had completely escaped their entanglement and returned to the camp. Giant Spirit Sect leader let out an explosive shout, and then he grabbed the one kilometer long Nine Yin Coffin and retreated backwards, one step at a time.


    Upon seeing this, the others immediately followed suit.


    The nine Sovereign level experts, led by the Devil Flame, only sneered as they watched this scene. They weren''t in a hurry to chase after it. Their path had already been blocked, so where else could they run to?


    After charging and ultimately returning in defeat, they once again returned to Black Wind Mountain.


    Boom ¡­


    The Divine Spirit Sect Master put down the Nine Yin Coffin and frowned. At this moment, they were surrounded on all sides and were filled with experts. It was almost impossible for them to break out of the encirclement.


    "Hateful that the Heavy Sect is too far away. Otherwise, if the army arrived, how could Mo Yan and the rest stop us?" The Giant Spirit Master pounded his chest and took a deep breath.


    "Right now, all we need to do is stall for time. I''ve received the news that our Gate of Heavenly Mystery has already sent someone to help your sect. As long as we can stall for three to five days, it''ll be fine." The kid leisurely walked out.

 C118

    "We are very clear about what you have said, Fairy. But will Mo Yan and the others give us time?" Even if that is the case, we will be caught up in less than an hour. " The one who spoke was the Great Elder of the Giant Spirit Sect, Gongsun Oak. His tone wasn''t gentle, but was a bit cold. No one could get along well with him in this situation.


    "Sigh ¡­"


    The Giant Spirit Master gave a long sigh and subconsciously looked at Ye Feihua, wanting to see if she had a plan.


    Ye Feihua''s cultivation was not worth mentioning here, but she was a scheming, scheming, and decisive person. Moreover, with regards to her background, if it was revealed, it would scare a group of people to death.


    Therefore, the Giant Spirit Sect leader had to be polite to her as well.


    Ye Feihua shook her head in front of the gazes of several of the Giant Spirit Sect''s higher ups. In this kind of situation, a scheming wouldn''t be of any use. Even if she was, she was powerless to turn the situation around.


    "I have a way to delay them for four to five days."


    Suddenly, a clear and loud voice of a youth sounded out. It was quite abrupt. It swept away the haze that covered everyone''s heads and their eyes immediately lit up.


    However, after seeing the face of the person speaking, their eyes immediately dimmed.


    For no other reason, this person was a junior in the Dao realm, and he wasn''t a disciple of their Giant Spirit Sect.


    He was the Lin Xing who had no status here.


    "Kid with a yellow mouth, don''t even think about speaking such arrogant words." Gongsun Oak stared at Lin Xing and yelled.


    The other high-ranking members of the Giant Spirit Sect also retracted their gazes. They didn''t take his words to heart at all.


    As for Kid Leng and Ju Si, one of them had astonishment in his eyes while the other was as cold as a knife. He also didn''t believe that Kid would be able to do anything.


    One had to know that the surroundings were filled with Sect Master level experts. How could a mere Daolord like him dare to speak such arrogant words? Could it be that he was pretending to plead for peace?


    Ye Feihua''s eyes were still shining as he asked with a frown, "You have a way?" You might as well tell me. "


    Ye Feihua knew that although Lin Xing would often do things where the sword was off course, it always worked. For example, two Elite Armaments raids? At the same time, an indescribable confidence grew in his heart.


    As expected of a bosom friend.


    Lin Xing sighed in his heart and gave Ye Feihua a determined and grateful look.


    Then, Lin Qi pointed to a mountain not far away and said to the Giant Spirit Faction leader, "Sovereign, please send someone to move this person away."


    Everyone looked over and saw a mountain range stretching for a hundred miles. In the southeast corner of Black Wind Mountain, the vegetation was pitch-black, and the death aura was especially heavy.


    The Giant Spirit Sect leader was surprised for a moment before looking at Ye Feihua. The latter nodded slightly, then with a wave of his sleeve, a hundred-meter-tall giant flew over.


    His fist immediately smashed into the Hundred Miles Mountain Range. His arm went twenty meters deep into the mountain range, causing the earth to tremble and rubble to fly everywhere. Smoke and dust flew everywhere, and ancient trees tottered and swayed.


    Then, with a loud roar, his entire mountain range was overturned. He blew out another breath, blowing all the remaining rocks into the distance.


    Seeing this, the people from the Giant Spirit Sect also rushed over with the Nine Yin Coffins.


    Looking down, they could see that there was a huge hole in the ground. However, they could still see the bottom of the pit. The layers of rock were closely packed together, and did not bring them any surprises.


    "You mean to say we should hide in the pit and then bury ourselves there to avoid you?"


    The white-haired Gongsun Oak was instantly enraged, shooting a sharp light at Lin Xing. Of course, what he said was also angry words. Even if he hid inside, he could easily sense them with his will.


    The Giant Spirit Sect leader and some of the higher ups also looked over coldly.


    Only Ye Feihua was watching the situation below. His eyes narrowed and he exclaimed, "That''s not right."


    "What''s wrong?" Everyone asked in unison.


    Lin Xing was the first to answer, "You are all old monsters that have lived for thousands of years. Don''t you see that there''s something strange about this rock? "May I ask where the rocks are so dense and smooth?"


    When the experts heard this, they all became furious and fiercely stared at him. This brat was truly too arrogant.


    However, the moment his gaze touched the rock, he couldn''t help but gasp in astonishment.


    "Why does this look like an impregnable fortress ¡­"


    Someone muttered. It was like a stone that gave rise to a thousand ripples, causing everyone''s expression to change immediately.


    "Please do it yourself, Sect Master, to break this layer of rock." Ye Feihua stepped forward and said solemnly.


    "Alright, I''ll come personally."


    The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader agreed without thinking. He jumped down towards the huge pit and smashed into it with his body. His body was extremely strong and it immediately split the layer of rock into pieces. All the rocks in the pit also crumbled.


    It revealed a cave entrance with a radius of thirty miles.


    Following that, a large amount of sacred and surging energy rushed out from that place and directly rushed into the clouds. It was as if a white pillar of light had formed, creating a huge hole in the heavens.


    The light there was resplendent and resplendent. The divine light there was brilliant. The white light was holy and holy, but it was majestic and surging. It shook the entire area for tens of thousands of li.


    The sect head expert led by Mo Yan noticed the commotion and impatiently flew over. In the blink of an eye, he landed around the white light and stood in the air as he sized everything up. He then took in a breath of cold air.


    "Immortal energy, what a thick and ancient Immortal energy."


    Everyone was in an uproar. Furthermore, they were all shaken. There was a shocking secret hidden here.


    "What is this place?" The Giant Spirit Sect leader exclaimed.


    The experts of the Giant Spirit Sect, Demon Flame, Ghost Saint Yuan Ming, and the others all locked their gazes on Lin Xing, as they urgently wanted to know the answer.


    At the scene, only the little brat Cool Breeze sighed in his heart, as he finally understood what Lin Qi was trying to do.


    Ye Feihua seemed to be thinking the same thing, as if he knew something.


    Lin Qi didn''t waste time speaking. He directly took out the stone tablet from the soul hole and held it in his hand for the onlookers to see.


    "The Great Celestial Sovereign Manor ¡­"


    Yet another Great Honored Warrior ¡­


    Including Big Tomb Slaughter, Black Wind Mountain actually had the secret of two Great Honored Warriors. Even Demon Flame did not expect that if he knew that there was still such a big secret, he would have asked a clan elder to watch over this place.


    "There must be layers upon layers of restrictions in the celestial sovereign''s mansion. The strong must not make a move. If we hide in it, not to mention staying here for three to five days, even three to five years would be fine." Lin Qi said loudly.


    "That''s right, what you said makes a lot of sense." The experts of the Giant Spirit Sect were all deeply in agreement. They gave Lin Xing a thumbs up. This young man was very meticulous and did not panic in the face of danger. He was very extraordinary.


    "Wait. Come to my Giant Spirit Sect. I''ll accept you as my personal disciple." The Giant Spirit Sect leader praised.

 C119

    "Thank you for your kindness, sect head, but this junior is too lazy to accept any restrictions." Lin Qi bowed and replied in an indifferent manner.


    "You refuse?" The Giant Spirit Master was stunned, everyone looked at Lin Qi with strange expressions.


    Even the floating Fiery Demon was shocked. He suspected that this youth had gone mad. Where would he find such a great opportunity to rise to the heavens in a single step?


    Lin Qi smiled but did not say anything. He then slowly nodded his head.


    "Whatever, everyone has their own aspirations." The praise in Giant Spirit Sect''s head''s eyes became even stronger as he looked at Lin Qi.


    "Celestial sovereign''s residence?" The secret that has been buried underground for hundreds of years, is about to be born? "


    An old man was mumbling to himself. This was another elder of the sect, he had been observing every single movement on the battlefield. The moment the immortal qi rushed out, they had already noticed it.


    "Yeah, I never thought that Black Wind Mountain would have so many secrets, it''s really getting more and more interesting." The sect elder from the Yin Master School said through the air, his hoarse voice filled with killing intent. The Underworld Sect and Immortal Sect had always been at odds, and this was a well-known fact.


    The enmity between the two could be traced back to the ancient times.


    In that era, the conflict between the Celestial Sect and the Underworld Sect was even stronger than it is today. As long as they met, either you died or I died.


    "Hmph, my sect disdains things that belong to the Celestial Sect. Let me reseal it."


    The old voice of the Yin Master School came again, hoarse and hoarse, as if millions of ants were biting and tearing at its throat.


    Suddenly, a boundless amount of energy evolved in the sky. Black star-like runes covered the sky as they poured down towards the ground. As soon as they touched the ground, they turned into pitch-black pieces of steel and rocks.


    The scene was horrifying, as if the sky had fallen and the earth had collapsed. The entire audience was shocked, this sect elder from the Underworld Sect was very angry, he actually wanted to bury the immortal palace again and suppress it in the netherworld.


    However, those giant iron rocks only stayed in the air for a short while before sweeping out from the direction of the Skypiercing Sect. It blocked all of the giant stones and blasted them away, disappearing in the darkness.


    "Brother Tian You is too rash. Back then, the might of the Great Rudra Immortal shook the entire world, and he was known as the Overlord. His immortal estate naturally had many secrets, and inside, there weren''t just Immortal treasures and weapons, but also a secret art of the underworld sect."


    The ancient voice from before sounded out from within the mountain gate. It was extremely calm, and no one could feel the ripples in his voice. Anyone who heard it would feel as if their heart had been pierced through.


    "Hehe, old freak from the Heaven Ascension Sect. I think it''s you who is coveting the treasures in the celestial sovereign''s mansion. I heard that your lifespan is almost up, and you won''t live more than a hundred years. The sect elder from the Yin Master School laughed sinisterly.


    After a long time, there was no response from the entrance of the Sky Sect. That person didn''t seem to want to retort.


    In reality, with an immortal palace in front of them, no sect could stand. Even the sect elders were no exception, clearly wanting to fight for it.


    This was because it was very likely that the interior was filled with traces of that period of time, as well as many secret techniques and weapons that had been hidden underground for millions of years.


    Each item that he took out was a treasure that would shake the world.


    The old monster from the Yin Master School also had the intention of making Ning Yingyu into pieces. In reality, he was also very tempted. However, this was still something from the Celestial Sect, so he was worried that it would expand because of this.


    With our cultivations, the two of us can clearly see the powerful restrictions in the inner city. Even if we go in, we won''t be able to get anything out of it, but I do realize that if cultivators below the Heaven Smiting Stage were to go in, they can still go in without any restrictions. A gentle breeze blew across the entrance of the Sky Sect.


    "Sure, but I don''t have any plans to split the treasures equally with the Giant Spirit Sect." Fine, but I don''t have any plans to split the treasures equally with the Giant Spirit Sect. The sect elder from the Yin Master School said.


    "Haha ¡­"


    A few sounds of laughter could be heard from the entrance of the Sky Sect, but very soon, the tone of voice turned cold. Turning the topic of conversation, he shouted out, "Attack!"


    As soon as he said that, Lin Xing saw the three Sect Master level experts in the air take the initiative to attack the crowd from the Giant Spirit Sect.


    Without a doubt, the three of them were Sky Sect experts.


    He was previously afraid of the "future" of the Giant Spirit Sect and the Great Tomb Slaughter, so he had concealed his true identity. Now that there was an immortal palace in front of him, the benefits were huge, not to mention the sect elder''s orders.


    "Kill them all! We will split the treasures of the Immortal estate evenly between the two Sects."


    The next moment, the distant gate of the Yin Master School released a dense killing intent.


    Seeing this, Mo Yan and the rest of the Sect Leaders no longer hesitated and rushed towards the Giant Spirit Sect members.


    "Protect the Old Ancestor. Everyone, retreat to the immortal palace."


    The Giant Spirit Sect''s leader roared and a group of experts dashed out, rushing towards the group of Sect Master level experts.


    The rest of the people quickly entered through the leaking walls. The two of them opened up a path in front, and four hundred-meter-tall giants rushed in with the Nine Yin Coffins on their shoulders. Soon after, the rest of the people entered as well.


    "Stop them."


    The eye on the head of the Devil Flame rapidly expanded and contracted. It shot out a red light that shot towards the Nine Yin Coffin. Wherever it went, the space was torn apart.


    However, just at this moment, another shocking wave of energy came from the direction of the Giant Spirit Sect and blocked the red light.


    Taking advantage of this, the four giants carried the Nine Yin Coffin and disappeared into the ground. When the Giant Spirit Sect leader and the others saw this, they were overjoyed and quickly retreated.


    While he was fleeing in panic, the Great Elder Gongsun Oak had cut off the rear. He had temporarily blocked the attacks of the nine great sect masters, but because of this, his flesh had been split into pieces and his blood had evaporated. Fortunately, the Giant Spirit Sect Master had caught him and he did not die completely.


    In the blink of an eye, everyone from the Giant Spirit Sect rushed into the immortal palace.


    "Jiu Wei, you shameless bastard. Since you like to join in the fun, why don''t you let me play with you."


    In the distance, a thick killing intent locked onto the Giant Spirit Sect as a dark aura permeated the air.


    The temper of the Sect Leader was uncontrollable. He had been angered by the interference of the Giant Spirit Sect''s Ninth Elder.


    The Giant Spirit Sect Elder wasn''t willing to be outdone. He immediately launched a counterattack. As soon as the two king level powers came into contact, they saw that the sky above the Giant Spirit Land seemed to collapse.


    And this scene, was the final scene Lin Xing saw when he stood outside the immortal estate. He then turned and rushed into the immortal estate.

 C120

    Stepping into the immortal palace, what entered his eyes was a vast city mottled with rust. It was ancient and heavy, lined with rows upon rows of different shapes and sizes. It was like an array of stars in the sky.


    This is the Lost City, the Immortal''s cave.


    But as far as the eyes could see, the immortal energy was not very dense. Instead, it was filled with a solemn and dense atmosphere.


    Raising his head to look up, he saw a group of palaces floating in the sky. The immortal mist formed into butterflies, and the white crane danced in the air. It was a group of palaces in the sky.


    After the Giant Spirit Sect disciples entered the mansion, the Giant Spirit Sect''s leader consulted a group of formation masters to see if there was anything mysterious about this place. After the Giant Spirit Sect disciples entered the mansion, the Giant Spirit Sect leader asked a group of formation masters to observe this area.


    After entering this place, Lin Xing could clearly feel that this place was covered with layers of restrictions. There were some places that were extremely dangerous because he could feel that there was immortal energy, so he couldn''t tolerate experts using force.


    Even though the Divine Spirit Sect Master and the other experts'' cultivations weren''t suppressed, they still felt pressured in their hearts. If they were to rashly use their inner strength, they would definitely be killed by the powerful restrictions in this place.


    They did not dare to raise their strength and even more so did not dare to do so. Moreover, their Giant Spirit Sect was mainly focused on physical training and did not have any strength, but they still had a powerful physical body. If they were to fight now, it would be obvious who was stronger.


    "That might be the inner city mentioned by the elder of the Sky Sect."


    With his experience, he also seemed to be surprised. It was because the celestial spiritual energy there was like an ocean, and if a disciple of the sect were to enter it, the results would be twice the result with half the effort.


    "The clan elder said before, the inner city can only be entered by people below the Heaven Smiting Stage. If anyone above the Heaven Smiting Stage were to enter, although he did not say it out loud, I believe they would only end up dead. Although this outer city is heavily fortified, it is completely ordinary. Presumably, all of those secret manuals are hidden in the inner city. " Ye Feihua''s eyes glowed with starlight. She was also from the immortal gate, so the temptation of this place was too great for her.


    The white-clothed youth, Leng Xiao, nodded in agreement, "That is reasonable. Although I have been searching for this Lost City, I do not know much about it. I only know that this entire Lost City is a dragon head weapon."


    "Head weapon!"


    Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Their expressions were all incomparably aghast; this was simply too shocking.


    Rumor has it that the Heavenly Cauldron is actually a dragon head weapon.


    The dragon head weapon represented the ultimate power of the world. It was not an exaggeration to say that with a dragon head weapon, one would have the power to control life and death in the world and dominate all living things.


    The dragon head weapon was too terrifying and scarce, even the Sky Profound Sect and the Heavy Sect did not have it. In the entire world, there were only a few, and all of them were grasped in the hands of the Giant Tyrant Mountain Sect.


    Upon hearing the words "dragon head weapon", everyone in the Giant Spirit Sect went crazy, revealing undisguised fanaticism and greed.


    The kid blinked his eyes and said coldly, "Please do not have any other thoughts, it is hard to be obedient, but how can your Giant Spirit Sect control the dragon head weapon? Furthermore, from what I know, this is not a secret. I believe that all the sect elders are aware of this matter and do not dare to covet it. This means that this dragon head weapon is not that easy to obtain. I just want to tell everyone, we are only temporarily hiding here and waiting for reinforcements. We absolutely cannot use the elemental energy in our bodies, or once we are discovered by the weapon''s inspiration, none of us will be able to survive. "


    The kid''s tone was cold and laced with sarcasm, making those of the Giant Spirit Sect not dare to retort.


    How could they obtain something that even the ancestors did not dare covet?


    "What Fairy said is true. If it wasn''t for Fairy''s words, I would have almost walked into the Dao." The Giant Spirit Sect leader smiled bitterly.


    Then, he calmed his emotions and raised his gaze to the sky above the palace. He said: "Any disciple below the Celestial Realm can go up voluntarily, and this is your chance. I think you all should know the importance of this, and if you all were to obtain a bit of good fortune, then you all will have the possibility to ascend to the heavens in one step. When you return, no matter what treasures you obtain, you will not have to turn them over to the sect."


    When they heard this, the Giant Spirit Sect disciples, led by Giant Spirit Race members, all had ecstatic expressions and indescribable excitement.


    To them, this was an opportunity to rise to the sky in a single step.


    "Lin Xing, come with us." Ye Feihua said to Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi''s face darkened, and he could not help but curse in his heart.


    Aren''t you talking nonsense? This mansion was opened for me to begin with. If I don''t enter, wouldn''t it be impossible for the heavens to tolerate?


    Besides, with such a great opportunity in front of them, who wouldn''t be tempted?


    He had the nagging feeling that Ye Feihua was about to force him to a corner, but the way she looked at him was full of ill intentions.


    He immediately shot back a supercilious look.


    "You will stay by their side if you go. Although this inner city seems normal on the surface, it is filled with dangers inside. There are some things that should not be provoked." The youngster reminded Lin Qi out of the kindness of his heart, as if hinting at something.


    With Little Charmer''s cultivation level, he was unable to enter, so he could only warn Lin Qi. Otherwise, if he stayed by her side, at least he wouldn''t be in danger.


    If a cultivator of the Heaven Opening Realm or above wanted to enter, they would first have to break this restriction. However, it seemed very difficult to do so. This had undoubtedly exceeded her expectations.


    This proved that her previous efforts had all been for naught. Thankfully, she still had a trustworthy friend by her side, Lin Xing.


    As soon as the words left his mouth, he secretly brought his two fingers together and shot a weak white light into Lin Qi''s palm.


    Lin Qi secretly lifted up his palm to observe, and found that there was a map in his hand. The map was white, with mountains and rivers and a large number of palaces on it. On the map, there were three red dots jumping.


    "Each of these three red dots is hiding something. Go and bring them over to me, and in four or five days, strong practitioners from my Gate of Heavenly Mystery will descend. I guarantee that your General''s Manor will never be under the control of the Heaven Sect again."


    Suddenly, the cold voice of a woman sounded out in Lin Qi''s mind. He subconsciously turned his head towards Little Cold. Just now, Little Cold had used another Immortal technique to transmit his words to Lin Ming''s mind, but no one else could hear it.


    Hearing this brat''s cold words, his heart couldn''t help but sink. On the surface, this brat meant that the General''s Residence was safe, but he was also hinting to Lin Xing that the lives of everyone in the General''s Estate were in the hands of her and the Gate of Heavenly Mystery.


    If Lin Xing did not do as he was told, then the entire general''s mansion would be in dire straits.


    From the looks of it, this brat''s shrewdness was deep enough. Only at this moment did he reveal his fangs in front of Lin Qi.


    Presumably, the location of the three red dots on his palm was an object of incomparable importance to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. Perhaps it wasn''t just because he was being alone.

 C121

    Puchi ¡­


    With a wave of his sleeve, a large number of green charm characters flew out from the Soul Cave. Each charm was pasted together and dropped into the hands of the Giant Spirit Sect disciples, including Lin Xing.


    "Here are the flight talismans. You guys keep them properly and go back and forth." The Divine Spirit Sect Master said.


    Some of the Giant Spirit Sect''s disciples that were in the sky realm also did the same thing. As for those who did not have a soul hole, they could only stick close to the clothes, which not only could fly, but also could preserve their lives.


    Afterwards, all of the Giant Spirit Sect disciples became excited. Their fiery eyes stared at the sky palace as someone impatiently activated a flight talisman. Both of their feet left the ground and flew straight into the sky.


    Giant Leviathan''s and Ye Feihua''s expressions were also quite pleasantly surprised as they flew up into the air.


    Lin Qi didn''t want to be slow either. He activated the flight talisman and transformed into a green stream of light that entered into his body. His entire body became light as he floated, and his feet left the ground as well.


    He had just flown five to six meters when he felt a cold light behind his back. It made him feel as if he was being stabbed in the back. This was a warning to him.


    Lin Qi''s expression did not change, but he increased his speed. In an instant, he was as fast as lightning, overtaking a group of people. In an instant, he arrived in the grand hall of the Heavenly Palace.


    When he stepped into this hazy white sky palace, Lin Qi was surprised to find that the scenery around him had changed.


    The palace was still there, but it seemed as if it was at the end of the horizon. The dense white mist also disappeared and was blown away by the wind.


    A person stepped forward and saw that the white fog in front of him was rolling away like a tidal wave, revealing a large area of dense vegetation.


    This surprised them greatly.


    "Could all these flowers and plants be immortal medicine from the legends?" I''ve never seen such a plant outside. "


    Looking at the surroundings, some people widened their eyes, their faces were filled with curiosity and shock.


    Lin Xing also lowered his head and observed the vegetation around him. He saw that the flowers and plants in front of him were all glistening with dew. The petals were all of different colors, but they were all sparkling and translucent.


    Some people impatiently plucked a fresh flower and stuffed it into their mouths. They chewed on it for a while, but their expressions didn''t change too much.


    "That''s not right. Although it is sweet to eat, it cannot increase one''s cultivation." The man who had eaten the petal frowned.


    "You are not cultivators, so it is useless for you to eat them. These are the plants that can only be seen in the outside world. After being nourished by immortal energy for so many years, their appearance has changed."


    Ye Feihua''s eyebrows drew together like a painting. She crouched down and plucked a leaf. Then she opened her red lips and put it in her mouth. Following that, a thin layer of immortal Qi emanated from her skin.


    "There is only immortal energy in this plant, there is no spiritual energy, and there is also no divine power, so eating it is useless. Ye Feihua smiled.


    Ye Feihua was from an immortal clan, so this wasn''t a secret in the Giant Spirit Sect. Many people were well aware of this; she was a sword immortal, majoring in the way of the sword, secondary cultivation of celestial spiritual energy, and her cultivation base was based on celestial spiritual energy.


    If she ate the plants here, she would be able to easily absorb the celestial spiritual energy and absorb it into her body, which would have the effect of increasing her cultivation level.


    "Commander Ye, you have to finish eating all the plants here. With this much immortal qi, you''ll definitely be able to advance two realms in a row and reach the Heaven Smiting Stage." Giant Reed joked.


    Ye Feihua did not know whether to laugh or cry. He lightly shook his head, grabbed a leaf and stuffed it into his mouth, saying at the same time, "It''s useless, the immortal qi has been settling for many years. Although it''s pure, it''s difficult to refine it after eating too much.


    "Then let''s rush inside first. The other great sects won''t let go of this opportunity, lest someone overtakes us first and overtakes us." Giant thought.


    "That''s right, let''s quickly go inside. Those good things can''t be taken advantage of by others. Our Giant Spirit Sect is going to pack them all up." Someone impatiently echoed.


    "I''ll listen to you." In the Giant Spirit Sect, Ye Feihua''s prestige was even higher than the Giant Spirit Race. He seemed to be the backbone of everyone present.


    "Sigh, what is he doing ¡­" Is he crazy? Didn''t they say that only those from the Celestial Sect of Wonders can use it?! "


    They had just taken a step when they saw Lin Xing crazily plucking the plants. He was like a reincarnated hungry ghost, stuffing the plants into his mouth and wolfing them down. There was no need to mention how crazy he was.


    Everyone looked down at him with disdain. Ju Xin Si coldly snorted. This was enough for Lin Xing. He was like a barbarian that had just come out of a desolate mountain. No matter what good stuff he saw, he couldn''t walk anymore.


    However, at the next moment, their expressions changed to one of shock. They saw Lin Qi also emitting a thin layer of immortal qi, as if he was puffing out clouds and mist. His entire being seemed hazy and hazy.


    "He also cultivates Immortal energy ¡­"


    They were dumbstruck. Some of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces. Lin Xing seemed to have always been a member of the Heaven Ascension Sect. How could he have cultivated immortal energy?


    Lin Xing acted as if he did not hear the question and continued to gobble down the meat. Only when Ye Feihua walked over and patted his shoulder did he raise his head and look back.


    "Are you full?" Ye Feihua asked as he wiped his sweat.


    "Burp ¡­"


    Lin Xing was at a loss for words. He held his breath for a while before letting out a burp. He even looked like he wanted to die. Seeing this, Ye Feihua really wanted to strangle him.


    Wiping the broken leaf at the corner of his mouth, he said with a smile, "I''m full. I can continue on my journey."


    "Hmph."


    "Humph!" The Giant Spirit Sect disciple that was led by Giant Spirit Ape humphed in disdain. He turned around and walked away, no longer bothering to look at Lin Xing.


    Lin Xing and Ye Feihua looked at each other and followed at the same time.


    In just a short period of time, Lin Xing had eaten a large amount of plants, and each of these plants was filled with a thick immortal energy, causing him to feel extremely satisfied.


    Originally, the celestial spiritual energy within his body was the weakest energy apart from the Heavenly Source. Now, it was extremely boundless and was almost on par with the Death God''s divine power.


    The more he ate, the weaker the immortal qi became, but he did not care. Even if it was just a tiny bit of immortal qi, he would not let it go, because in the Land of Buried Gods, there was no immortal qi for him to refine. Of course, he would not let this perfect opportunity go by.


    Unfortunately, he really couldn''t take it anymore. A gentle immortal energy stirred within his body, making him feel as if his body was about to explode.


    Furthermore, after the slumber of the golden mace, he could no longer refine it directly like he usually did, and could only rely on his own efforts to cultivate it.


    After weighing the pros and cons, he kept up with the Giant Spirit Sect.


    There must be something bigger ahead.

 C122

    As a group of people walked over, the white mist in front of them automatically moved to the side, revealing a large piece of land brimming with vitality.


    "This is ¡­" "Could it be that this is the legendary Thunder Leaf? I heard my master mention that this is a body refining divine medicine that can use heavenly lightning to create a body."


    A sharp-eyed Giant Spirit Sect disciple was the first to notice that under the cover of layers of vegetation, a plant covered in yellow light was quickly uprooted and grasped in his hand. He couldn''t help but cheer out in wild joy.


    "It really is the Thunder Leaf!" Ye Feihua also recognized the plant and couldn''t help but exclaim in surprise.


    When the person heard this, he felt as if he had found a treasure. He put the thunder leaf back into his waist and vigilantly protected that spot.


    The other disciples looked at him with greed in their eyes, but none of them had the intention to fight for it.


    Firstly, they were all sect disciples, there was no reason for them to kill each other.


    Second, he had only taken two steps when he saw such a godly medicine. It was unknown what else was in front of him.


    Aren''t we letting others see us as jokes if we were to engage in internal strife now?


    "This scene reminds me of the Heavenly Cauldron." Giant Reed said with a nostalgic expression.


    "Heavenly cauldron!"


    As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shaken. The meaning behind his words was that this place was in no way inferior to the legendary Heavenly Cauldron.


    The Heavenly Cauldron was a place where one could pick up divine artifacts on their way. Rare treasures were everywhere.


    With their talent, it was impossible for them to enter the Heavenly Cauldron in their lifetime. However, being fortunate enough to enter this immortal estate was definitely not a wasted life.


    They were all restless, unable to suppress the desire in their hearts, and could only hurry forward as one.


    Lin Xing focused his mind and also quickly followed, afraid that he would be one step too slow for the others.


    Fortunately, they were all disciples of the Giant Spirit Sect. If they were in the same place with a group of people they didn''t know, then that lightning leaf would cause a storm of blood and gore.


    No one could remain calm. No one wanted to be one step slower.


    When they reached this place, they stopped in their tracks. The white mist in front of them no longer retreated, but instead formed a protective screen that prevented anyone from entering.


    Some people tried to rush in, but they were bounced back twenty meters and rolled awkwardly on the ground. Luckily, they were not injured.


    "Reese, blast it open." Ye Feihua frowned.


    "Yes."


    Giant Thread slowly nodded his head. He rolled up his sleeves and the skin on his right arm suddenly turned red. He gathered his strength and punched the white mist, dealing a ton of damage.


    Lin Qi saw that the white mist immediately dispersed under the bombardment of Giant Sharp''s punch. Some even evaporated into thin air. If he was not mistaken, he could faintly hear a beast-like howl.


    In the next moment, the white mist rebounded back. After being scattered for a short period of time, it returned to its original state. It was gentle yet forceful, and was even more difficult to move than an iron mountain.


    Giant Thread narrowed his eyes, revealing a rare serious expression. He asked Ye Feihua, "Commander Ye, you''re from the Immortal family. Do you know what this white fog is made of?"


    "This is an Immortal mist. What is blocking our path should be a mist beast." Ye Feihua said with an unnatural expression.


    "Mist beasts?" Lin Xing and Ju Xin''s eyes widened at the same time.


    Looks like this immortal palace is much more dangerous than I thought. Before us is a low level mist beast, and it can only defend and not attack. However, there''s a chance that there''s a spirit opening mist beast in front of us. Ye Feihua was worried.


    The group of people were shocked and all of them shut their mouths.


    Giant Spirit gave a cold snort and angrily attacked again. He almost used all of his strength, but like before, the white mist only dispersed for a short period of time and quickly returned to its original appearance.


    "Excuse me."


    Lin Qi saw Lin Fan''s strenuous expression, stepped forward, and pushed him on the shoulder as he said rather impatiently.


    "Heh, it can''t be that you have a solution to this problem, right?" When Giant Remnant turned around and saw that it was Lin Qi, he immediately laughed in disdain.


    The others were also constantly mocking him. Only Ye Feihua''s bright eyes stared at him with a glint in them.


    "Of course I have a way. Do you think I''m stupid like you and can only use brute force?" Lin Qi Feng calmly said.


    Hearing this, Jirin''s face immediately darkened. He clenched his steel-like fists, suppressing the anger in his heart with all his might. He smiled sinisterly and said, "I can''t wait to see you sent flying."


    Lin Qi chuckled and no longer argued. Under everyone''s gaze, he took a big step forward with his right foot touching the white mist. Then, an invisible force appeared in his arms and pushed the white mist away.


    That white mist was very resilient, and was clearly still rebounding. Lin Qi charged forward, casting the Hidden Heaven Technique to its limit. The powerful force pushed the white mist to the side seven or eight meters under the astonished gaze of the crowd.


    "Hidden Heavens!"


    Ye Feihua''s lips quivered, making it even harder to see through this youth. He was actually involved in the concealment of the heavens and earth? Just how many secrets was he hiding?


    Although the others did not recognize the ''Sky Concealment Technique'', they were still shocked. They did not understand how Lin Xing was able to push away the white fog.


    Just now, even Giant Creed had been unable to do anything.


    "What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and enter." Lin Xing turned around and roared angrily at the people behind him.


    He used the Hidden Heaven Technique to open a path in front of him and expended a great deal of effort. The group of people behind him were still in a daze, causing him to almost fly into a rage.


    The white mist that had been pushed aside was still very tough and had a tendency to reunite. It was just that because it had been pushed far away, their speed was very slow. However, it wouldn''t be long before it returned to its original appearance.


    Hearing this, the group of people weren''t angry, but they had no strength to retort. Under the leadership of Giant Leviathan''s and Ye Feihua, they followed Lin Xing through the thick white fog, forcefully pushing out a gap.


    Lin Qi strode forward like a hot knife through butter as he used the Hidden Heaven Spell repeatedly. He pushed the white mist in front of him to the side.


    At this moment, both of Lin Qi''s arms were in a layer of white fog, but he could not push it away. He gave a loud roar and pushed again, but he was still unable to push it away.


    This layer of white mist had a strange shape. It was dancing in the air, and a tiger-like face was faintly discernable. It was sinister and astonishing.


    "Be careful!" Ye Feihua''s reminder came from behind.


    Lin Qi was shocked. He saw the beast''s face move in the white mist. It opened its huge mouth and bared its fangs and brandished its claws at him. Its body was still moving, and it pounced like lightning. It was fast and nimble.


    Lin Qi suddenly felt his whole body go cold, and he subconsciously retreated backwards. His reaction was also very fast, and he dodged the attack.


    However, the beast had no intentions of letting him go. It flew out of the fog sea as a whole, three meters long. It had the physique of a jackal, the face of a tiger, and the head of a leopard.


    From the looks of it, it was obvious that his spiritual wisdom had been opened and that he had reached perfection.

 C123

    The mist beast emerged from the white mist. Its entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of white frost. It was cold and gentle as it absorbed a large amount of immortal energy from its surroundings and poured it into its body.


    It was elegant and graceful, like a swimming dragon, lifelike, and exuding a breathtaking aura.


    It first bit towards Lin Qi, its attack hitting nothing but air. It opened its mouth wide and continued to attack, causing the white fog to roll in all directions.


    Lin Qi dodged the attack and quickly retreated seven or eight steps back. When the mist beast pounced at him again, he immediately went up to fight it.


    Clang...


    The four Gargantuan Constellation Elephants were incomparably tyrannical. After taking two heavy punches, the mist beast''s body, which was formed from the white mist, unexpectedly became dispirited. Its eyes revealed a strong look of fear.


    His entire body was like a sharp sword, standing tall and straight on the spot. There was nothing he could not do, and his aura of sharpness was intimidating.


    The mist beast knew that the young man in front of it couldn''t fight back, so it let out a muffled roar. Its voice was like an eggplant as it charged into the white mist.


    Its body seemed to grow larger as it merged with the white mist, instantly increasing a large amount of immortal energy. Furthermore, it commanded the white mist in all directions to envelop everyone.


    Giant Remnant leaped up and pounced towards the mist beast. In an instant, the white mist exploded like a tornado, and the blade-like blades continued to cut through the air as they flew in all directions.


    At the same time, the four directions of the white mist underwent a magical transformation. A circular passageway appeared, with a diameter of about two meters, large enough to accommodate a person''s body.


    The tunnel was extremely long, so deep that one couldn''t see the end of it. White mist roiled about within, as though it was the path to an immortal estate.


    Roar ¡­


    All around them were roars of beasts. When the beasts heard the commotion, they all rushed over along with the white mist.


    "Everyone, quickly enter the tunnel. This is the only way to survive through the fog region." Ye Feihua shouted.


    Three or four people immediately charged into the same passageway. In this seemingly sacred Immortal estate that was filled with dangers everywhere, it was best to group up and leave together. If they split up, it would be difficult to deal with danger.


    However, just as the first person reached the tunnel entrance, they saw a mist beast rush over, blocking the front and covering the entrance. The group of people who were unable to enter the tunnel could only enter another one.


    Even Lin Qi stopped in his tracks. After a moment of thought, he immediately entered the passageway that was closest to him.


    The next moment, he turned his head around and saw Ye Feihua also entering a tunnel. The giant reaper stopped pestering the mist beast and charged into another tunnel.


    In the blink of an eye, the Giant Spirit Sect disciples were all split up by the White Mist Passage. Everyone present was submerged. Lin Xing no longer hesitated and immediately rushed towards the passageway he had chosen.


    With a dash, his figure moved as fast as lightning through the white mist. However, he could not see the end of it. He felt as if he had fallen into a vast white mist, unable to find any traces of light.


    He ran along the tunnel like this. After an unknown period of time, he finally began to feel tired. He was almost at the limit of his stamina, so he had no choice but to slow down his pace to a minimum.


    After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, an intersection appeared in front of him, forming three white mist tunnels. In one of the tunnels, there was a puddle of flesh and blood less than 20 meters away from him.


    His pupils unconsciously constricted as he looked warily at that place. At the same time, he slowly retreated towards the other passageway.


    He was completely unable to recognize that puddle of flesh and blood. However, the figures of the Giant Spirit Sect disciples immediately appeared in his mind. Only the few of them went into the passageway. He didn''t even need to think to know that the pile of rotten meat definitely came from one of them.


    From the looks of it, this white mist tunnel wasn''t completely safe, and it also contained a hidden danger within.


    "Huff ¡­ Huff ¡­"


    The white fog around him roiled violently. Lin Xing steadied his mind and sprinted towards the front of the passage. Before he turned around, his eyes reflected a mass of blood fog that exuded the smell of blood as it rushed out of the white fog.


    It was obvious that the blood mist was the person who had just swallowed the piece of rotten meat.


    He rapidly dashed, and the bloody mist rolled about on top of the white mist. It was like a fish in water as it continued to chase and kill him.


    This was another Fog Beast that had its mind opened. Judging from its appearance, it was stronger than the ones that were blocking the road outside. Even a Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator might not be able to defeat it.


    In the blink of an eye, it had already pressed up against his back. A bone-piercing chill came from behind him as he quickly activated the two black lights and waved them behind him.


    The black lamp was simple and unadorned. It burned with a white flame, yet it was extremely cold and terrifying. It blocked the attack of the blood mist.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing did not even turn his head back as he rushed forward.


    The blood mist had no intention of letting him go. Within the blood mist, a pile of flesh could be vaguely seen moving around, as if it was digesting the food it had just swallowed.


    This immortal estate had been hidden for over a million years, and all sorts of strange things had changed. Even the most common white fog was no exception, and there was even a terrifying thing like a prison corpse.


    Every place was filled with killing intent. Lin Xing had to be careful.


    "Light ¡­"


    After a short while of running, Lin Xing finally saw the end of the tunnel. This almost made him cry. He immediately channeled all the energy in his body and ferociously rushed towards that direction.


    The blood mist behind him was like a shadow as it chased him relentlessly. The moment he rushed out of the passageway, the blood mist immediately rushed out, biting towards him.


    However, perhaps even the blood mist itself didn''t notice that the moment it charged out of the white fog area, its celestial spiritual energy suddenly decreased by a lot and its aura became 10 times weaker.


    This caused Lin Qi to be stunned. He could not leave the white fog region, otherwise it would be very difficult for him to survive. He had to rely on the fog to survive.


    How could Lin Xing let go of this opportunity? Without hesitation, he once again cast the Nine Divine Lantern Technique. Immediately, two black lanterns came smashing down on him.


    "Roar ¡­"


    The blood mist finally revealed a hint of fear. At this moment, its aura was not even comparable to that of a Dao Division cultivator. Just as it was about to return to the fog region, it saw Lin Xing counterattacking.


    A deep scream sounded out as the light from the two black lamps annihilated the blood mist around it. It struggled for a few seconds before its entire body turned into blood and dripped onto the ground.


    A pungent smell of blood spread on the ground. Lin Qi could not help but pinch his nose as he walked forward to check. Other than the puddle of blood and flesh, he also found a droplet of water on the ground.


    The water droplets were about the size of a palm, white and rosy, sparkling and translucent. Inside the droplets stored pure immortal energy.


    This was the essence of the mist beast, a type of beast core.


    With a wave of his sleeve, the blood and flesh around him were all swept away. He then picked up the water droplet and examined it with his hand. His expression changed again when he saw that the water droplet had traces of dissipation.


    Then, he suddenly gripped the water droplet tightly and calculated in his heart. He must refine this water droplet as soon as possible, otherwise, it would completely evaporate in less than two hours.

 C124

    Looking at the surroundings, what entered his eyes was an extremely lively and lively land. The flowers and plants formed a shade, and the immortal aura drifted about. The scenery truly made one feel relaxed and happy.


    In the distant mountains, there stood many resplendent and magnificent palaces. It was as if a sun was hanging above each of the great halls. It was emitting a blazing and magnificent radiance, making everyone amazed.


    Lin Qi tugged at the corner of his clothes and stared at the palace with a sharp gaze. He held the water droplet in his hand tightly and walked forward.


    Not long after, he arrived at a pond. The vegetation here was lush and deeply rooted, and the water vapor within the pond was dense and sparkling. Furthermore, the immortal aura here was extremely dense.


    It was like a celestial cave; an excellent place for cultivating.


    After observing for a while, he came to a relatively hidden place and sat down. He lightly closed his eyes and began to refine the water droplet in his hand.


    Celestial spiritual energy appeared in his hand and scattered the water droplets. Then, streams of celestial spiritual energy surged out from his body and sucked all of the celestial energy onto his skin like a magnet.


    After that, the refined immortal energy began to surge crazily within his body. The immortal energy around him seemed to sense something as it entered his pores and entered his body.


    The moment the two came into contact, they fiercely stuck to each other like dog skin plaster, circulating the unrefined immortal energy.


    During this process, Lin Xing continued to refine the immortal qi, nibbling it away until it returned to his body.


    After about an hour, Lin Xing finally opened his eyes. His pupils had become much more profound than before, as if they could accommodate the universe and the starry sky.


    His temperament had also undergone an obvious change. There was a clear and unobstructed feeling, but it was difficult for others to see through it. It was an unspeakable otherness that could not be described.


    The celestial spiritual energy inside his body was originally the smallest amount of energy besides Tian Yuan, but now it was completely full. Right now in his body, he had the qualifications to replace the overlord status of the Death God''s divine power.


    In the past, it was mainly because there were no immortals to cultivate. Even though there was a little bit of nature, he did not have a cultivation technique nor did he know how to absorb it. That bit of immortal energy could be ignored.


    Yet now, just after entering the immortal estate for half a day, he received such a huge benefit. It would be a lie to say that he wasn''t excited.


    Because of this, his cultivation base had advanced to the great circle of the Dao Division. He was only a step away from the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    Suddenly, Lin Qi stood up and gazed at the palace for a while. Then, he retracted his gaze and looked at the map in his hand.


    According to the diagram, there was a red dot that was relatively close to him. The map also seemed to sense it, so the red dot jumped very violently.


    This was the task that the brat Liang had given him. The brat Leng was his only backer, he did not dare to forget it, because if he angered the Gate of Heavenly Mystery again, there would be no place for the general''s household in the entire world.


    Without further ado, he followed the route shown on the map and headed towards the nearest red dot.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    Lin Qi took two steps forward, but before he could even raise his head, he heard the cold female voice.


    Standing in front of him was a group of youths. The leader was Quan Li, who he hadn''t seen for a long time, and he was looking at him with a cold and proud expression. Next to him was a group of disciples from the Heaven Seeking Sect, as well as two men and women from the Underworld Sect.


    When enemies meet, their eyes will turn red. Everyone looked at him with a fierce look.


    "Miss Quan Li, long time no see." Lin Qi realized that the person in front of him was at most at the Great Circle of the Dao Reaching Realm. As a result, he was not the least bit afraid. Unexpectedly, he had a calm and collected expression on his face.


    With the appearance of the celestial sovereign''s manor, the various sects would definitely not let this huge benefit slip by. They had sent out their sect''s elite disciples to investigate, and from the conversation between the two old monsters, they could infer this fact.


    They entered the Giant Spirit Sect a step later than Lin Xing. Lin Xing had just cultivated here for a long time, and just as he walked out, he coincidentally bumped into this group of people.


    "That''s right, long time no see. It really was hard for me to find you." It''s truly like stepping on broken iron shoes without any place to look for you. You actually let me meet you here. " Quan Li sneered.


    As she spoke, her gaze was still scanning the surroundings, her eyes filled with vigilance.


    "There''s no need to search. I''m the only one here."


    Of course, Lin Xing knew what she was looking for. It was none other than the people from the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "Oh? Then why don''t you kneel down and beg for forgiveness? I wonder where you got your confidence from to be so calm. " Quan Li''s face was stunned at first, but soon after, he sneered.


    "I don''t plan to fight with you guys, please get out of my way. I don''t want to kill anyone right now." Lin Xing said in a deep voice.


    "Haha ¡­"


    "Don''t you know what your situation is? So what if you have cultivated to the Dao Division? "We have more than ten Dao Seeking experts."


    The group of people beside Quan Li immediately laughed mockingly. Their expressions were all extremely disdainful. Lin Xing was already like a piece of meat on a chopping block. He was at the mercy of others.


    He could only blame his bad luck, running into them as soon as he got up.


    He had just entered the immortal estate not too long ago and had yet to pick up two treasures, but he had first captured Lin Qi. This could be considered a happy occasion.


    "Hand over the Venerable One''s secret technique and I''ll let you go." Quan Li said.


    "Really?" Actually, I want to hand it over to you guys, but you promised to let me go? "Then will the two of them agree?" Lin Xing playfully shifted his gaze onto the two disciples of the underworld.


    "That''s none of my business." Quan Li had a helpless expression as he chuckled.


    "That''s right, you are not stupid. Our Yin Master School has never said that we will let you go." The two disciples of the Yin Master School sneered.


    He suddenly raised his head, and with a death look on his face, he said, "Then there''s nothing left to say. You guys go ahead, the Great Honored Warrior Art is in my body. If you kill me, you will have it."


    "Why are you so impatient to die?" Quan Li frowned.


    "Senior Sister Quan, don''t waste your breath with him. Kill him. We can take back the secret arts of the Great Honored Warrior as well. Let me take his little life."


    Just as he finished speaking, a young man rushed towards him. He raised his hand, drew out a long sword, and ruthlessly hacked towards Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi''s expression was the same as usual. He didn''t move at all and was waiting for him to slash down. When the sword was only three inches away from his head, his figure disappeared and the youth was sent flying.


    Puff ¡­


    A deafening sound reverberated in the surroundings. The young man flew more than twenty meters away before landing on the ground in a sorry state, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.


    Lin Qi stood on the same spot, not moving an inch, as if nothing had happened.


    "Kill him."


    Quan Li waved his arms, and the young men beside him flew out and swarmed over.


    As for the two men and women of the Yin Valley, they also drew their swords and followed them.


    So many people, so many weapons! This was the tempo of someone wanting to mince Lin Xing into mincemeat!

 C125

    The fourteen or fifteen Dao-Reaching Realm cultivators attacked Lin Qi together. They unleashed all kinds of deadly attacks, and the divine power created from all kinds of spells was incomparably powerful.


    Lin Qi first dodged two strikes, then frowned. He took a step forward with his right foot and launched a counterattack. Two ancient black lights appeared out of thin air. With a flick of his fingers, a large expanse of immortal light lit up.


    Following that, he displayed Hidden Heaven Art, using his ingenious strength to the extreme. He instantly arrived in front of Quan Li and the others, blasting them over a hundred meters away.


    "Die ¡­"


    At the same time, a man and a woman who were not sent flying also came up to him. They were surrounded by nether energies as if they were all the inner disciples of the Yin Master School.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth lifted into a smile. He purposely did not send the two of them flying because he could not kill the disciples of the Heaven Seeking Sect. But the Underworld Sect, especially the Yin Master School, had a blood feud with him.


    His eyes turned cold as he rushed to the woman and grabbed her neck.


    Ka-cha ¡­


    With a ''kacha'' sound, the woman''s neck turned, and blood dripped from the corner of her mouth onto Lin Xing''s wrist. She glared at him, her eyes filled with hatred and despair.


    Puff ¡­


    At the same time, the man''s attack was also close to his back. He quickly retracted his arm and immediately activated the Hidden Heaven Technique. A formless energy evolved around him, directly crushing all of the man''s internal organs.


    Falling to the ground, completely dead.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    Quan Li and the group of disciples from the Sky Sect, who had originally planned to continue charging forward, suddenly halted their steps when they saw this scene and sucked in a breath of cold air.


    "Do you still want to come back?" Lin Qi''s mouth slightly curled, emitting a behemoth''s power that froze them in place.


    He had the cultivation of an alligator, so if he let it out just a little bit, he could transform into a divine beast. His might was terrifying, and Quan Li''s group could not help but shudder.


    Lin Xing had killed two Dao Seeking experts in an instant. This level of combat prowess was shocking even to someone of the same cultivation level. The way she looked at him was as if she was looking at a monster.


    After that, Lin Xing shrugged his shoulders, no longer paying any attention to them as he walked off into the distance.


    "Senior Sister, two years ago, was his cultivation really crippled?"


    Someone asked in a dry voice. In his mind, he recalled the scene from two years ago, when Lin Xing was the center of attention and stunning everyone. After two years, he had once again overlapped with the figure in front of him.


    Quan Li slightly closed her eyes. Her pretty face was filled with bitterness, but she eventually sighed and shook her head.


    Lin Qi followed the map and headed straight for the red dot that was closest to him.


    After a short moment, he arrived at a vast mountain range.


    In front of them were magnificent mountains and valleys. There was an aura of an ancient deity coming from them, making them feel as if they had stepped into the ancient deities'' era.


    The vast mountains were vast and endless, the heavens and the earth never ending. When Lin Xing arrived here, he felt as if he was incomparably tiny.


    "The Yin Master disciples ¡­"


    Suddenly, he stopped and lowered his head to look at a corpse in front of him.


    This was the corpse of a young man. Looking at his clothes, he seemed to be an inner disciple of the Yin Master School.


    Lin Qi observed his surroundings for a while and did not leave. The expression on his face became even weirder.


    He discovered that the corpse in front of him had no wounds on its body. Its clothes were shiny, and its face looked peaceful. Even before it died, it didn''t suffer from any struggle or pain, but the more it did so, the weirder it felt.


    "So it''s a soul ¡­"


    Lin Xing sent a strand of Death God Power into the body and finally found the answer, causing his pupils to contract.


    The corpse in front of him looked as good as new, but its soul had been completely destroyed, which was why it had died.


    But what kind of thing could silently destroy the soul of a Dao Seeking expert?


    With this thought in mind, his expression became unnatural and he immediately looked around vigilantly.


    After a long time, seeing that there were no sounds coming from his surroundings, he calmed himself down, gritted his teeth, and continued on his way.


    Not long after, he climbed over a large mountain and stepped onto an altar. His face suddenly became extremely gloomy.


    The altar was rectangular in shape, two meters tall and seven meters long. It was ancient, yet it gave off a murderous aura. It went deep into the ground like a coffin.


    On the altar, he saw two more corpses. One was a disciple of the Heaven Ascension Sect, and the other was a disciple of the Yin Master Sect.


    "Great Rudra Immortal Mansion ¡­"


    Under the corpse of a person, Lin Xing discovered a stone tablet. Amidst his shock, he immediately took out the immortal tablet from the Soul Cave. The two stone tablets were actually identical.


    There were six eye-catching words engraved on it. It was cold, but it had celestial spirits.


    He turned the corpse over and also placed the stone tablet into the soul hole. He guessed that this stone tablet was not as simple as just the insignia of something; it might be of great use.


    Lin Qi stood on the spot and observed his surroundings for a while. After confirming that there was no danger, he continued to rush forward.


    After arriving here, he was one step closer to the red dot in his palm. He was about seven or eight miles away.


    To him, seven or eight kilometers was a very short period of time, but in this place where danger lurked in all directions, he didn''t dare to be anxious. Every step he took was cautious and prudent.


    He ran forward, crossing two tall mountains. Along the way, he saw another altar like this one. It was as if there was a similar altar between each of the ravines, causing Lin Xing to be even more amazed.


    If his guess was correct, this should be a formation array.


    He raised his head and saw that in the middle of the forest was another altar, also a rectangular shape. However, this altar was clearly much larger than the previous one, and it was about twenty meters in length.


    Moreover, the beast totems engraved on it were all legendary mythical beasts like qilins and true dragons.


    There were more than twenty figures on and around the altar. They were jumping and soaring from time to time as if they were trying to escape from the pursuit of something. The scene was somewhat comical, but everyone''s expressions were extremely grave.


    Lin Xing saw Ye Feihua among them, as well as Yun Chi and the rest of the disciples of the great sects.


    Ye Feihua fought alone. Not only did she have to avoid the pursuit of something, but she also had to deal with the fierce attacks of Yun Chi and the other disciples of the Yin Master School.


    "Marshal Ye, thank you so much. If it weren''t for you, we really wouldn''t have made it here." While Yun Chi was attacking Ye Feihua, he laughed sinisterly.


    "Hmph, don''t be too proud too early. This is still the outer perimeter, and the treasures are still inside."


    Ye Feihua''s sword Qi was sharp, each move was decisive and deadly. With his combined strength, under the attacks of Yun Chi, he was actually able to move with ease.

 C126

    This was what a Sword Immortal was. Their attacks were sharp and fierce, surpassing levels in terms of combat prowess and they were especially adept at close combat.


    Although Ye Feihua did not have a sword in her hand, every blade of grass and trees around her could turn into sharp swords because of her sword intent. With a tap of her fingers, a large amount of sword Qi surged outwards.


    In particular, every time she attacked, she would deal a ton of damage.


    "Third charge, divine sword skill!" Lin Qi watched the battle with a frown on his face, his heart in turmoil.


    I never would have thought that you would actually be a sword immortal. Seeing the sword immortal''s technique today, you truly live up to your name, and as a member of an immortal family, you will definitely be like a fish in water if you enter the Immortal''s Mansion. Furthermore, you are extremely intelligent, so you will definitely know some things. As soon as I entered, I sent people to look for your figure. I didn''t expect that I would actually find you. I secretly followed behind you, so I came here. Although I am unable to see through the mysteries of this place, I know that there are great secrets here. "


    After all, he was a Heaven Smiting Stage expert, so what if he was a sword immortal that defied the will of the heavens? The difference in their realms was enormous, so Ye Feihua wouldn''t be able to hold on for long.


    "Really?" I suddenly feel honored. So it turns out that you think so highly of me. " Ye Feihua had a cold smile on her face, but no one noticed that deep in her eyes, there was a look of accomplishment.


    "Ye Shuai, join our sect. Our sect will not give you any less treatment than the Giant Spirit Sect." Yun Chi said enticingly.


    "Thank you for your kind intentions, but it seems like you really can''t come up with anything that could move my heart." Ye Feihua laughed coldly.


    "Arrogant! I''ll make you submit to me under my crotch."


    Yun Chi was infuriated, and a smirk appeared on his face. He immediately cast a meditation technique, intending to finish the battle quickly.


    At the same time, Lin Qi, who was hiding in the corner, noticed a circle of light appearing under his feet. His expression immediately changed and he quickly moved to the side.


    The ring of light appeared on the ground. It was very sudden, and the moment it appeared, it began to shrink. If he didn''t react fast enough, his feet would have been bound.


    Although he did not know what the halo of light was, he saw that Ye Feihua, Yun Chi and the rest had been avoiding it. It must have been an extremely dangerous object.


    Just as he steadied his body, another ring of light appeared under his feet. It quickly shrank and he dodged to the side, but then another ring of light appeared under his feet.


    He narrowed his eyes and saw that the surrounding ground was covered with rings of light. He quickly responded by dodging to the side and running towards the altar.


    Because the area around the altar was relatively less filled with rings of light. At the very least, there were still places to set foot.


    However, the outer ring seemed to be completely enveloped by rings of light. There wasn''t even a place to land. Lin Qi slowly stepped forward and before the ring of light shrunk, he was already next to the altar.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    Ye Feihua, Yun Chi, and many other disciples that were battling, noticed Lin Xing''s sudden appearance. Their faces were filled with shock and coldness.


    When Ye Feihua saw the sudden appearance of Lin Qi, a look of surprise appeared on her face.


    "The path of enemies is narrow. Today, your life will be lost here." Yun Chi suddenly sneered even more fiercely. Not only did he capture Ye Feihua, he even managed to kill Lin Xing, the person he hated to the core. This was truly killing two birds with one stone.


    From the looks of it, this Immortal estate was simply a blessing for the people of the underworld.


    "Hoh, you''re wrong. Today should be the day of your death." Lin Qi said coldly to Yun Chi at the same time he dodged the halo of light below his feet.


    At the same time, he approached Ye Feihua, lowered his head to look at the ring of light, and asked in surprise, "What are these things?"


    "This is a soul touch. Once you are bound, the soul in your body will be strangled to death. So be careful, don''t touch it." Ye Feihua stroked her hair, the surprise on her face immediately disappearing as she gently warned Lin Xing.


    "No wonder ¡­"


    Lin Qi recalled the corpses he encountered on the way here.


    Brother Wandering, you can stall Ye Feihua for some time. Hand over to me, I will personally grind his bones and scatter his ashes. I only want his life. Yun Chi said to Arc Swamp.


    He turned his neck a few times and slowly nodded after hearing this. The corner of his mouth raised into a faint proud and aloof smile.


    After all, Lin Xing was a Dao Division cultivator. If Yun Chi wanted to kill him, even if it took more effort, it wouldn''t take too much effort. As long as he could delay Ye Feifei for a moment, he would be able to get the Great Honored Warrior''s secretary.


    "Help me delay Arc Swirl and leave Yun Que to me." Lin Xing''s tongue moved around in his mouth for a bit before he spoke to Ye Feihua.


    These words were clearly said by Yun Chi. He had taken the initiative, but once Lin Xing said it, he felt an inexplicable pressure in his heart, causing him to be slightly passive.


    "No problem." Ye Feihua smiled.


    After receiving confirmation, Lin Xing''s eyes suddenly turned cold. Two black lights appeared out of nowhere in front of him. He took a step forward, and with a speed as fast as lightning, he charged straight towards Yun Chi.


    "Immortal qi again ¡­"


    When Yun Chi saw the black lamp, his mind recalled the scene at the Prince''s Mansion in the Northern Tomb. Back then, when Lin Xing used his immortal qi to break through two stages, even his balls almost turned green from anger.


    He flew into a rage. At this moment, he had finally found a place to vent his anger.


    At the same time, Wandering, Ye Feihua, and the disciples of the various sects were quietly watching the battle from the sidelines. The first two people had no intention of fighting.


    "Although I really want to fight against Sword Immortals, your cultivation is too weak. I will absolutely not bully the weak with my strength. Furthermore, you are a weak woman. Thus, we should not fight." He stood there proudly, calm and collected.


    Ye Feihua laughed, a strange laugh. His expression was stiff, but hidden within was a hint of ridicule.


    "Just what I want." Ye Feihua pretended not to care.


    On the battlefield, Lin Xing and Yun Chi were fighting side by side. The two of them were using their most powerful spells, each move containing a ton of damage.


    The holy immortal energy danced and interweaved in the air. Two more black lamps appeared above his head. Adding the previous two, a total of four black lamps appeared, all of which smashed toward Yun Chi.


    Yun Chi also cast a meditation technique at the same time. He first took out the soul refining flag from his soul hole, and countless ghosts floated out and appeared behind his back.


    Suddenly, all the ghosts fused together on top of his head, turning into a huge, hideous face. His two white eyes were especially terrifying, and there were even drops of blood on them.


    He opened his mouth wide and shot out a stream of black Netherworld Ghost Flame. It fell down from the sky like a meteor, and with the unique aura of a Heaven Smiting Stage expert, it was like a mountain pressing down on Lin Qi''s head.


    Lin Qi sent out four black lights, one after the other, blocking the attack in midair. The flames were cold and resplendent, blocking all of the descending ghost flames.


    "Let''s talk temporarily. Since we haven''t taken the treasures, let''s fight to the death. They''re not worth it."


    Out of everyone''s expectations, Yun Che said this for the first time.


    In fact, Lin Xing''s strength had exceeded his expectations. Today, if he wanted to kill Lin Xing, he would have to pay a heavy price.


    And this result was obviously unacceptable to Yun Chi, who had just entered the immortal estate and still hadn''t obtained a single treasure.

 C127

    Peace talks?


    All the disciples present were stunned.


    If this had been said by Lin Qi, they would not have been that surprised. However, they would never have imagined that the word ''peace talks'' came from the mouth of Yun Chi, who was in the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    In the eyes of the spectating Arc Ward, he could not help but let out a stuffy snort. In his opinion, the Yun Chi in the Heaven Smiting Stage did not live up to his name.


    Ye Feihua''s expression was the same as ever. Hearing these two words, her expression remained unperturbed, as if everything that had happened was within her expectations.


    Lin Qi suddenly laughed. It was very hot, very cold, and very ironic.


    He didn''t show any signs of stopping. Instead, his eyes became increasingly cold and there was a cold sheen on them. He took out a weapon from his soul hole and then rushed towards Yun Chi.


    "Yun Chi, you are too naive. You and I have a blood feud, is there even a possibility for a negotiation? If you do not leave your dog life here today, I will definitely not agree to the peace talks that you have said. "


    The weapon that Lin Xing had used was an icicle, pure and clear. Cold flames burned as well as the entire weapon was spinning at high speeds. A sharp noise pierced through the clouds as wisps of cold flames flew out.


    This was a weapon that he had obtained from the Northern Tomb King''s formation. It was called the Luan Ice Spike. It had been hidden deep within the cave of souls until this moment before it was used.


    "Impudent! You''re too arrogant! I originally wanted to let you live for a few more days, but now that you''re anxious to die, I can only grant your wish."


    Yun Chi was infuriated. His nether energies surged as a large amount of black qi enveloped his entire body. A bloody mark was formed on his forehead.


    For a time, fierce winds raged. His long robes fluttered in the wind, and his hair danced as he stood tall and straight amidst the darkness. It was as if he had transformed into a demonic deity.


    His aura surged and his nether energies surged. This was the true strength of Yun Chi, fully displaying it at this moment.


    The group of people present were terrified as well, and their eyes were filled with deep reverence.


    Even a hint of fear flashed across his face. The title of the head disciple of the Yin Master School was not for show.


    "Then let''s see who dies first."


    Lin Xing tapped both his fingers together, and with a loud shout, the icicle shot out along with the four black lanterns.


    The place was covered in a hazy glow, and everyone was shocked. This Lin Xing was clearly not someone to be trifled with.


    When the immortal qi and nether energies collided, they were actually stuck in midair and engaged in an intense battle. No one was able to do anything to each other.


    And at the same time that Lin Xing launched his attack, he once again activated the Feng Lilac in his body. His entire body seemed to have transformed into a divine beast, spreading out a terrifying might as he rushed towards Yun Chi.


    The two energies were still in contact with each other. Yun Chi did not expect Lin Qi to still have another trump card up his sleeve. That majestic aura directly penetrated through his nether energy and slammed into his body.


    "Puff ¡­"


    He was forced to take five steps back, and every step left a deep crater in the ground. If it wasn''t for his fast reaction, he would have already been engulfed by that ring of light.


    The difference in just one move had caused him to be at a disadvantage. Lin Xing had used all sorts of strength, so he should have been prepared for this.


    However, he was a Heaven Smiting Stage expert and the head disciple of the Yin Master School. He had his pride, even if the Lin Xing in front of him was the genius from two years ago, he would not be afraid! What''s more, it was a mere Dao-split stage?


    "You''re just like an ant. Die for me!"


    His feet stomped on the ground, and his entire body flew up into the air. Lin Xing saw that his body was splitting apart, and before long, clones appeared in front of him. Each of them was extremely real, and their strength was equally tyrannical.


    He immediately activated the Hidden Heaven Spell and sent all the shadows flying. At the same time, he took large strides forward and pointed his Ice Spike at the Luan, ready to kill it all.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, a black ring of fire appeared in front of him. There seemed to be many dark cities within the empty space. The Netherworld Udumbara Flower was lying in front of him like a ghost.


    Lin Qi gave a loud shout and without fear, he continued advancing forward. The Luan Frost Thrust directly destroyed the black ring of fire, and the black light disappeared in a flash.


    Then, the terrified expression on Yun Chi''s face appeared in Lin Xing''s eyes.


    The icicle accurately pierced through his chest, then passed through him. A large stream of blood spurted out of that wound.


    Yun Chi''s face was filled with despair and hatred as he stared at Lin Qi. Then, he lowered his head towards his chest and let out an angry roar.


    He used all his strength to send Lin Qi flying, but he did not attack again. Instead, he turned around and fled.


    His life force was very strong, and even if the icicle were to pierce through his chest, it would not be able to kill him completely. His movements were still very nimble, appearing five hundred meters away in an instant.


    Lin Xing, who had been sent flying, also stopped in his tracks. Blood trickled down the corner of his mouth, and his face was no longer flushed. He was also wounded.


    Without panicking, he took out the Black God Bow from his soul hole, immediately nocked it with a bow and arrows, and pulled it into the shape of a full moon.


    Whoosh ¡­


    The sound of wind breaking resounded as an afterimage flashed through the air, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.


    Yun Chi, who was desperately running away, also felt the danger on his back and immediately turned around, ready to defend.


    Puff ¡­


    However, before he could even react, an arrow shot into his left eye and flew out from the back of his head. The huge inertia pulled his body back more than ten meters.


    The arrow was powerful and continued to fly forward. As it disappeared, the crowd caught sight of a black and white eyeball stuck into the arrow.


    Yun Chi fell to the ground with a savage look. His face was completely unrecognizable, his face was covered in blood and there was a shocking bloody hole in his left eye.


    At this moment, everyone''s hearts were filled with terror.


    A genius of the Heaven Smiting Stage had fallen just like that? They all felt like they were dreaming, and their hearts were filled with raging waves.


    You You was no longer calm. His eyes were glazed over with disbelief as he looked at Lin Xing. It was rare to see a trace of reverence mixed within.


    As for Ye Feihua, his expression changed again and again. His almond-shaped eyes narrowed, and his impeccable appearance changed.


    The most shocked of all were the underworld disciples. Yun Chi was their spiritual leader, and yet he had been mercilessly slaughtered by a Dao Seeking expert. To them, this was something completely unbelievable.


    In the next moment, the shock on the faces of all the disciples of the Netherworld Sect disappeared and was replaced by endless fear. This was because they saw that after Lin Xing had dealt with Yun Zhe, he had turned his cold gaze over to them.


    "Run!"


    "Retreat!" No one knew who shouted in fear, but all the disciples of the Netherworld Sect fled in different directions.


    After all, this was a ruthless person who had killed Yun Chi. If even a Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator was killed by him, who in the Nether Sect would be able to fight against him?


    "None of you will escape."


    Lin Xing would never show mercy to people from the underworld sects, especially the Yin Court. He would kill anyone he saw.

 C128

    Under Lin Qi''s control, the ice awl flew out and flew towards a certain direction. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the throats of three Dark Dwellers, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out.


    Soon after, the Luan Frost Thrust continued to pursue and kill the fleeing Dark Dwellers. Lin Qi did not stay idle either. His body flashed and instantly appeared in the distance. After another two flashes, he directly appeared behind the two Dark Dwellers.


    A black lamp appeared. Ice-cold flames shot out like sharp swords, instantly sending the two of them onto the Road to River Styx.


    Then, he caught up to the other two Dark Dwellers, using the same method as before. The ice-cold flames were like the scythes of death that took their lives.


    After a round of slaughter, Lin Xing returned to the altar, and the Luan Frost Thorn also drilled into his soul hole. He looked around at the corpses on the ground, and sighed a mouthful of impure air.


    At the scene, someone stretched out a finger and counted the corpses. The final result made him suck in a breath of cold air.


    Including Yun Chi, all eighteen of them were killed by Lin Xing alone.


    Their expressions all changed, but without exception, they turned to look at Lin Xing once more. Regardless of what expression it was, it was all filled with reverence, and even fear.


    At the scene, besides Ye Feihua and Wandering, there were eight other Dao Seeking disciples. They were either disciples from the Heaven Ascension Sect or the Sikong Sect disciples who had followed Arc Roaming to this place.


    "You guys can leave now. Don''t make me want to kill you."


    Lin Xing stared at Arisaema and the other disciples of the great sects. With a single word he silenced them.


    A moment ago, he was a little dazed, but when he came back to his senses, he immediately shouted angrily: "You think you can show off your strength in front of me just because you killed Yun Chi? I''m warning you, it''s best to restrain yourself a bit. Otherwise, you will die a terrible death. "


    "I don''t want to repeat myself." Two black lights appeared in front of Lin Qi, ready to fight. This action caused the faces of the disciples to suddenly change.


    "You ¡­" Arc pointed at him. His lungs were about to explode from anger.


    In fact, even though he was confident that he could defeat Lin Xing, he didn''t think too much about it. After entering the immortal estate, without even obtaining a single treasure, he had first gone against Lin Xing who was at the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    After killing Yun Chi, Lin Xing did not suffer much damage. If they fought with blood, he would not be able to win. Even if he could kill Lin Qi, he would have to pay a heavy price.


    The thoughts in his heart were exactly the same as the Yun Chi from before. He did not want to be injured here, and thus, delayed the rest of the journey.


    This time, there were many experts at the Heaven Smiting Stage that entered the immortal estate. He had to maintain his peak state at all times and avoid a bloody battle.


    "Miss Ye, let''s ignore this madman. Quickly tell us what kind of mysterious and precious treasures this place has!" Arisaema glared at Lin Xing before speaking gently to Ye Feihua.


    He couldn''t wait to find the treasure. However, it didn''t matter to him who Lin Qi was. After all, by relying on their own methods, they would be able to snatch him away.


    Hearing this, the corner of Ye Feihua''s mouth raised into a mocking smile. With a face full of smiles, he said, "Yuanyou, head disciple of Sikong Zong, I would like to ask, with your brain, how did you manage to reach this position? Now it seems that you are even more naive than Yun Chi. "


    "Besides, did I say there are treasures here? As for the mystery behind it, won''t you go and see for yourself? " Ye Feihua smiled.


    "What do you mean!" Arc Swamp couldn''t stay calm anymore. It felt like it was in a deadlock.


    "What do you mean? Lin Xing has already helped me relay the information to you." Right at this moment, a circle of light appeared at the bottom of Ye Feihua''s feet. She lightly jumped away, her actions and expression somewhat mischievous.


    When her feet touched the ground again, her body appeared beside Lin Qi, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. The two of them stared at the arc like tigers stalking their prey.


    Seeing Ye Feihua''s actions, no matter how foolish he was, he understood that Lin Xing and Ye Feihua were determined to make him their enemy.


    His expression immediately became gloomy, and he let out an angry roar from his throat. His killing intent wantonly stirred outside his body.


    "Even if there is a treasure here, do you think we will split it equally with you? "Of course, the fewer there are, the better." Lin Xing said expressionlessly.


    "I''ll kill you."


    Arisaema couldn''t suppress the anger in his heart anymore. He had to do something no matter what the consequences would be. If he dared to lie to him, he would definitely make the man and woman before him pay the price.


    "Senior brother, you can''t! He''s the one who killed Yun Chi, and Ye Feihua, his sword skills are at the acme of perfection. To be able to match up to a Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator, senior brother must think twice."


    Just as Arc Swamp was about to charge over, the eight people beside him held him tightly.


    He suddenly clenched his fists. His knuckles issued an ear-piercing ''kacha'' sound. He calmed his mind a little and had no choice but to withdraw his foot that had just lifted up.


    That person was right. Lin Xing and Ye Feihua were both different types. Even if he could defeat even one of them, it would be difficult, let alone teaming up with them.


    "The eight of you, help me stall for some time. As long as I kill Lin Xing, I''ll come back to help you." Arisaema said coldly.


    "This ¡­"


    The eight of them hesitated, but none of them dared to agree.


    Arisaema knew that these eight people were actually just decorations in front of the Heaven Smiting Stage. They were not a match for a single move from the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    Although Lin Xing and Ye Feihua were not in the Heaven Smiting Stage, their fighting capabilities were even more terrifying than the air raiding stage.


    "I will not let this matter rest. You just wait and see."


    After thinking about it again and again, he finally gave up on the idea of fighting. He coldly said these words. Each word was like a broken tooth. There was no need to mention how angry he was.


    "Sure thing!" Ye Feihua smiled.


    "Humph!"


    Arisaema led his group of eight away. He didn''t even turn his head back as his footsteps quickened. This was because the moment he saw Lin Xin and Ye Feihua, he couldn''t help but feel an unquenchable rage in his heart.


    After the surroundings were quiet, Lin Xing dodged the halo of light at the bottom of his feet while asking Ye Feihua, "Can you tell me the mysteries of this place now?"


    Ye Feihua gave a mysterious smile. He did not answer, but sword Qi floated around his body, spreading out in all directions.


    From afar, one could hear a faint puffing sound. The Dark Dwellers, who had been killed by Lin Xing earlier, had their heads sliced off by the sword qi, blood flowing from their necks.


    Following that, Ye Feihua waved her sleeve and sucked the scattered heads onto the altar, placing them in a mysterious manner.


    Lin Qi quietly watched the scene unfold. Ye Feihua was currently using his actions to tell him the secrets of this place.


    After the bloody heads were placed in place, the sky above the altar immediately lit up with a green light that vaguely appeared in the air.


    "Not enough." Ye Feihua stared at this scene and suddenly frowned.


    "What''s not enough?" Lin Qi asked in surprise.


    "We don''t have enough heads, we still need to kill more." Ye Feihua replied.


    Upon hearing this, a cold aura seeped out from the depths of Lin Xing Ling''s soul. Seeing the shadow not far away from him, his face unexpectedly became shocked for a moment.

 C129

    At this moment, in Lin Xing''s eyes, Ye Feihua had turned into a wicked woman with a heart like a snake and a scorpion, causing him to feel a chill in his heart.


    In that case, hadn''t Ye Feihua purposely lured Yun Chi and co. here?


    She knew that the head of the sect was the key to opening this inheritance. However, when she thought about it, since she was alone and only had the strength of one, what right did she have to cut off the head of this group of disciples?


    Presumably, she was also concealing her trump card. This was the only reasonable explanation. As Lin Xing''s thoughts reached this point, his eyes involuntarily narrowed.


    "It seems like you didn''t leave me any hope of survival when I was at the Spirit Transformation Mountain." Lin Qi suddenly thought of this question, and his eyes couldn''t help but turn cold.


    Ye Feihua was stunned for a moment, then said with a faint smile, "I didn''t say that I would leave a path for survival amongst the heavy armies of the Spirit Molding Mountain. Your path for survival lies with the Skysplit Sect."


    "If not, how would your father and the Yin Valley Spirit know that you are surrounded, and that you are in the land of the Spiritfount Mountain?" Ye Feihua smiled slyly.


    "Haha ¡­"


    Hearing this, Lin Qi could only laugh out loud. He had originally been full of anger, but now he could not vent it out.


    "Don''t talk about other things. The most important thing right now is to gather a hundred people, otherwise, it would just be empty talk." Ye Feihua glanced at the altar and spoke in a low voice.


    "A hundred?" Even with Lin Qi''s mental fortitude, when he heard this, his complexion could not help but greatly change.


    Right now, there were only eighteen heads on the altar. There were still eighty-two more left, where could he find these eighty-two?


    Ye Feihua saw the doubt in Lin Xing''s heart and said, "This time, not only are there Yin Master Manor''s disciples, but there are also people from the Evil Ghost sect. Adding all of them together, there won''t be less than 500 people.


    The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched twice. He calmed himself and looked at Ye Feihua, furrowing his brows as he asked, "Enough. But on this premise, you have to properly explain the mysteries of this place to me."


    Ye Feihua nodded his head slowly, at the same time dodging a circle of light that grew at the bottom of his feet, she said, "This is a sword immortal''s tomb, before we died, we were also an existence with a cultivation level extremely close to the Great Honored Warrior. There are many restrictions here, but because our cultivation is weak, we are unable to trigger it, and only the lowest level soul touch can detect us. Furthermore, when this sword immortal was alive, he hated the disciples of the Netherworld Sect a lot. If he wanted to open up his legacy, he would have to sacrifice one hundred of the Netherworld Sect''s heads with his blood. "


    "So that''s how it is." Lin Qi nodded his head.


    Ye Feihua was a sword immortal. If an incomparably powerful ancestor was lying here, it would be natural for her to covet him.


    "You came here on my orders, did you come to take away the flag?" Ye Feihua''s eyes rested on Lin Xing''s face as he asked.


    Lin Xing''s heart tightened and his eyebrows unconsciously knitted together. Ye Feihua was meticulous and intelligent, his guess was very accurate.


    He must have thoroughly grasped this kid''s cold heart.


    "Is the flag being hoed a treasure?" Lin Qi asked in surprise.


    Ye Feihua nodded his head and said, "Yes, it is a treasure. A treasure that this sword immortal snatched from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. This matter is rather interesting, as our land is separated by an endless sea, and on the other side of the sea, there is also a piece of land, which is an extremely flourishing Sacred Land of the Divine Mountain, the mountain gate of the Heavy Sect is there, and if you want to cross this sea, you not only have to pass through the teleportation formation three times, but also have to fly for two months. The journey is extremely long, and the Gate of Heavenly Mystery has always wanted to develop their influence there. But they plotted for three thousand years, and in the end their treasures were stolen away.


    Ye Feihua laughed in schadenfreude as he said that last sentence.


    This was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing. In the past, he had only faintly heard his Master mention the Heavy Sect before, and at that time, Cang Yushi''s face had clearly become extremely emotional. This was a colossus that even the Heavenly Sect looked up to.


    The Heavy Sect came from the Sacred Land of the Divine Mountain, which was also the place that the Profound Sky Sect and other great sects wanted to reach.


    Thinking of the incident with the Great Tomb Slaughter, the Giant Spirit Sect''s leader was prepared for rain, so he immediately sent people to the important sects to help them. He even spent countless resources to reactivate the fourth formation that they had failed to repair, which greatly shortened their travel time. This allowed the experts of the Heavy Sect to arrive here within a month.


    "So you''re saying that the Gate of Heavenly Mystery wants to move the entire sect to the Sacred Land of the Divine Mountain?" Lin Xing asked.


    "That''s right, that''s why I don''t mind being a villain and using your family to threaten you. After all, this is something that the Profound Sky Sect planned for many years, they definitely will not allow any mistakes to occur." Ye Feihua chuckled, clearly guessing at the deal between Lin Xing and Little Liang.


    If that was the case, then hoeing the sea flag was indeed incomparably important to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. It would not be surprising for the brat to use his general''s residence to threaten him.


    Suddenly, he snapped out of his thoughts and looked warily at Ye Feihua.


    "Keep your heart in your stomach. I''m not interested in hoeing the flag." Ye Feihua covered his mouth and chuckled.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing finally relaxed. He could tell that Ye Feihua''s tone was very casual, as if a treasure like the flag of the sea was nothing in her eyes. Presumably, there was something even more heaven-defying than the flag of the sea.


    "Alright, let''s hurry up and move. Even though You You have left, it doesn''t mean that he won''t send reinforcements back to kill us." Ye Feihua''s expression turned serious.


    Lin Qi nodded his head slowly in agreement. Suddenly, a strong killing intent flashed across his eyes. Perhaps killing innocent people was not his intent, but towards the Dark King, he would never be lenient.


    Ye Feihua continued, "I''ll move with you. We''ll meet here in an hour."


    "It''s a deal." As Lin Qi spoke, his body flashed and appeared in the distance. He then dashed off in a certain direction.


    Ye Feihua did not dilly-dally any longer. She ran in the opposite direction from Lin Xing, her entire body covered in sword Qi. She also charged in one direction, searching for the scent of the underworld.


    They were all elite disciples of the various sects, and although they were hostile towards each other, if there were no coveted treasures, it would still be difficult for them to fight.


    Suddenly, a head fell onto the ground, breaking this deadlock. The stench of blood quickly spread through the air.


    A Ghost was caught off guard and was successfully attacked from behind by a youth. An icicle that was bone-chilling cold directly cut off the head of the Dark Dweller.


    After that, the youth calmly lifted the head into his hands. With a flip of his palm, he immediately disappeared.


    Following that, under the astonished and stunned gazes of the crowd, the youth left, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

 C130

    In the lively mountain forest, two corpses were lying on the ground. Their heads were cut off and rolled to the side, blood was flowing from their necks up to this point. Their corpses did not have any wounds, indicating that they were unprepared and killed.


    Lin Xing stood at the side, his eyes glinting with a cold light. His face was expressionless and emotionless. In truth, he had already become numb from killing so many people in such a short period of time.


    Although these people were from the Ghost sect, which had a blood feud with him, they had all been fresh lives before.


    However, there wasn''t much guilt in his heart, only numbness.


    He shook his head and quickly calmed himself down, returning to his normal state of mind. His heart was numb and cold-blooded, almost corroding his mind because of this. This was not a good omen.


    He didn''t want to become a Berserk Demon that only knew how to kill and kill.


    After calming his mind, his expression changed from cold-blooded to cold. He stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips. Then, he picked up two bloody heads and ran towards another direction in search of his next target.


    By this point, he had thirty-two heads in his soul cave, and the target he had set for himself was fifty heads, which was still a bit off.


    As for the rest, he believed that Ye Feihua would have a way to get it.


    That merciless woman was no pushover. Whether it was strength or intelligence, she was much stronger than ordinary people.


    Quan Li and a group of Heaven Sect disciples stood at a certain location.


    Opposite them, there were also eighteen Yin Master School disciples. Both sides seemed to be discussing something, each one of them looked very gloomy and angry.


    "Miss Quan, is this true? The one who suffered a thousand cuts from Lin Xing killed two people from my Yin Master School? " One of them roared, and when he saw Quan Li nod, he immediately clenched his fists.


    "This Lin Qi is getting more and more audacious. If we don''t behead him in public, it will be hard to quell the anger of the crowd." The other members of the Sky Sect shouted in anger as well.


    "Behead them all? How can that be enough, I will pull his body out, refine his soul, and let him experience purgatory torture for all his life. " The Yin Master School disciples who had spoken earlier narrowed their eyes and let out cold glints that were as sharp as blades.


    "Is that true?" When I hear it in my ears, I get a little scared. "


    A clear and melodious voice of a youth sounded out, causing everyone to immediately feel as though they were facing a great enemy. Not too far away on the left, a graceful youth appeared out of nowhere.


    "It''s you ¡­"


    When they saw Lin Que''s appearance, the fire of anger was burning in their chests.


    "That''s right, it''s me. I''m here to collect the heads." Lin Xing said in a casual tone.


    "Arrogant, I''ll definitely make you lose to me in life and death."


    A person from the Yin Master Sect shouted. With a wave of his sleeve, all the disciples from the Dark World charged towards Lin Qi, instantly arriving in front of him. All sorts of spells from the Dark Master School came crashing down on him.


    Quan Li and the other disciples of the Heaven Sect were all dazzled. With so many Dao Division disciples attacking at the same time, even if Lin Xing didn''t die, he would still be crippled.


    However, in the next moment, their eyes went wide with shock. Who would''ve thought that the disciples of the underworld would see Lin Xing''s body change the moment they activated their spell?


    An ancient aura descended from the heavens and enveloped everyone. The aura was both ancient and powerful, making people feel as if they were in its presence. It was as if giant beasts with a physique comparable to that of mountains were appearing everywhere.


    The Underworld Sect disciples who had rushed over immediately felt as if there was a mountain pressing down on their heads. The magic that had just been launched into the air had all been pushed back and dissipated, unable to bear the pressure as they sat down on the ground.


    "Swish ¡­"


    At the same time, Lin Xing''s eyes flashed with a cold light. He activated the Luan Ice Thorn and began a crazy slaughter of this group of people.


    At that very moment, the disciples of the underworld sect saw the two people in front of them and their heads separated from their bodies. They rolled down from their shoulders.


    They wanted to fight back, but they couldn''t move. They could only allow Lin Xing to slaughter them as he wished.


    Screams sounded out one after another, causing Quan Li and the other disciples to feel a chill run down their spines.


    How was this even the harmless looking youth from before? In the blink of an eye, he had turned into a god of death, and in a short period of time, he had beheaded all eighteen disciples of the Netherworld Sect.


    Lin Qi waved his sleeve, and put all of the heads lying on the ground into his soul hole.


    After that, he left without even looking at Quan Li.


    In reality, Quan Li and the other disciples of the Heaven Rising Sect were dumbstruck. They were completely numb to it. The viciousness and power of Lin Xing had also shocked them to the extreme.


    Staring at the eighteen headless corpses in front of them, their hairs stood on end and their hair stood on end.


    These were the elite disciples of the Yin Master School. They originally came here for a treasure, but they died a horrible death. When the senior executives of the Yin Master Sect heard this news, they would burn the sky to ashes.


    This wasn''t just a matter of face for the Yin Master School, the most important thing was that these disciples were the future of the Yin Master Sect. Losing so many of them at once was a huge blow to the Yin Master Sect.


    Lin Xing was also using his actions to tell the Yin Master School that this was the result of provoking him.


    The scene changed and Lin Xing returned to the primitive mountain range.


    From what Ye Feihua had said, the surrounding small altars were all being buried by the Sword Immortal''s disciples. The deeper they went, the larger the altar became. This also showed the noble identity of the owner of the tomb.


    In the center was the Sword Immortal''s tomb.


    Lin Qi rushed back to the center of the altar, and looked ahead. His eyes were filled with surprise, and his face turned slightly pale.


    From the looks of it, Ye Feihua still hadn''t returned. But the key point was that the eighteen heads that were originally on the altar had also disappeared.


    "Ye Feihua lied to me." With a cold face, Lin Qi was burning with anger.


    He had spent so much effort and killed so many people, but in the end, he discovered that he had been deceived, and this became a joke.


    He believed that he had been on his guard at all times and had always been cautious, but Ye Feihua had always been cunning. He had come up with a story so meticulously that he actually believed it.


    Thinking back now, Ye Feihua had claimed that this was a sword immortal''s tomb, but he could not sense any sword intent. This was also his fault for being careless.


    However, he was not satisfied. He did not leave immediately. Instead, he walked forward with flying speed.


    His eyes immediately lit up as he flipped over a mountain. Within his vision was the image of Ye Feihua.


    At this moment, Ye Feihua was standing on a small altar. He placed forty to fifty heads in a mysterious manner, and his hands were even forming strange seals.


    Suddenly, a large amount of green light appeared in the sky. It was much brighter than before, and there were many things flickering within the green light.


    Lin Xing let out a cold laugh and shot the icicle at Ye Feihua. He would not let Ye Feihua succeed so easily.

 C131

    Ye Feihua sensed the danger from behind and had no choice but to interrupt the seal. He sidestepped and at the same time shot out a sword Qi that spun around her body.


    Upon seeing that the person who had arrived was Lin Xing, Ye Feihua immediately dispersed the sword Qi surrounding him. He smiled and said, "You''re a step too late."


    Lin Qi was stunned for a moment before asking with ill intentions, "The situation doesn''t seem too slow. After all, you didn''t obtain the treasure."


    Ye Feihua''s expression froze, then she suddenly smiled mischievously. Lin Xing must have misunderstood her and explained, "You misunderstood me. I don''t have any intentions of keeping it for myself. I know with your intellect, you will definitely find this place."


    "Really?" If I didn''t find this place, then wouldn''t my previous efforts have all been in vain? " Lin Qi said in a cold voice.


    "If you are unable to find this place, then I cannot do anything either. This place is only a mountain away from the Sword Immortal''s Tomb." Ye Feihua wiped away his sweat.


    "Ha!"


    Ye Feihua''s glib tongue could make the dead seem alive. Lin Qi did not want to argue with her anymore, so he asked, "Didn''t you say that all the treasures are in the Sword Immortal''s Tomb? What are you doing here? "


    Hearing this, Ye Feihua''s face revealed melancholy and uncertainty. With her intelligence, she also encountered a problem.


    "The treasure might not be in the sword immortal''s tomb. This tomb is the corpse of a young disciple of a Sword Immortal. The Sword Immortal dotes on this person and it is possible that he might have left those treasures here. Ye Feihua said as he rubbed his temples with his fingers.


    "You guessed all this?" Lin Xing narrowed his eyes.


    "Yes, I guessed it, I activated the inheritance earlier, but I could not see the accompanying items clearly, so I am not certain. Right now you have another fifty heads, adding them together with mine, there are a total of a hundred, but if you use these hundred more to trigger the inheritance, they will definitely succeed, but their heads will also scatter because of this. As for whether it''s a sword immortal treasure or his disciple''s accompanying item, that would depend on luck. "If that''s not the case, then we can only go and kill another one hundred disciples of the Nether Sect." Ye Feihua frowned. This was the first time she encountered something that made her unable to make a decision.


    "Impossible. The disciples of the Ghost sect have already made preparations and must succeed on their first try. However, since you think you''ve passed your legacy down in the Sword Immortal''s disciple''s tomb, you must have a special relationship with him." Lin Xing sized up the small altar and asked Ye Feihua quietly.


    "This disciple is a woman."


    Ye Feihua didn''t say it out loud, but Lin Xing had a plan.


    "Then let''s do it." Lin Qi''s expression was resolute.


    "Alright."


    Ye Feihua nodded his head solemnly. Then, tonight, he took fifty bloody heads out of the soul hole and rolled them on the ground. Ye Feihua quickly finished arranging them.


    Then, Ye Feihua performed a strange incantation gesture with both hands and began to open the Sword Immortal Legacy.


    After a while, the sky above them lit up with a green light. Burial objects could be vaguely seen.


    Ye Feihua suddenly increased his strength. With a flick of his finger, immortal qi swirled about. The one hundred heads rapidly shriveled up, and the azure light grew brighter and brighter.


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, an object emerged from the green light and fell to the ground.


    This was a painting scroll that looked somewhat old and yellow. It wasn''t very eye-catching, but it emitted a dense ancient aura, making people feel that it wasn''t ordinary.


    Ye Feihua didn''t even glance at the scroll. Her expression was especially grave as she continued to activate the magical seal and activate the legacy.


    Lin Xing calmly picked up the painting without opening it. He calmly put it away in the Soul Cave.


    Since Ye Feihua disdained this painting, then he would not be so polite.


    Following that, a huge pile of items fell from the green light.


    Most of them were pills or weapons, and there were also two pieces of female clothing.


    Ye Feihua was still looking down on him, while Lin Xing''s hands had gone soft.


    Soon after, another object appeared from within the azure light. It was a flag with a snow-white body. On it were some famous mountains from the time of the Valley of the Gods. It was extremely ancient and heavy.


    "So this is the Waving Flag. So my guess was correct. So the Sword Immortal Legacy is truly here." Ye Feihua smiled.


    Lin Qi was ecstatic. He immediately jumped up and grabbed the flag in his hand.


    Although it looked light and light, it was actually very heavy, even heavier than the Black God Bow. Lin Xing immediately casted the sky concealing technique and the flag followed his arm and entered the soul hole.


    Everything had been completed. Lin Xing could not contain his joy. The task that this boy Liang had given him could be considered completed in less than half.


    However, Ye Feihua was still activating the inheritance. What she really wanted had yet to appear.


    She was drenched in sweat, and her delicate body was trembling. It was extremely tiring and tiring. The joy she felt not long ago quickly turned into despair.


    "Impossible ¡­" The flag hoe is all here, I don''t believe that his legacy will not be here. "


    Ye Feihua let out a low growl, its sharp sound ripping the air apart.


    At this moment, from within the azure light, a golden skull peeked out. Seeing this, Ye Feihua was immediately overjoyed.


    When all the golden heads emerged from the azure light, Ye Feihua immediately gave up on the seal and grabbed at the golden skull. The azure light in the air also disappeared.


    But in the end, Ye Feihua was still a step too slow. Lin Xing who was quick on the uptake snatched the golden skull away.


    "I don''t want the flag or those treasures. Hand over the skulls."


    Ye Feihua''s lungs were about to explode from the anger, his expression extremely cold. Lin Xing''s move had touched her reverse scale.


    "I didn''t say I wanted it. I just wanted to observe it." Lin Qi looked at the skull in his palm and said with a faint smile.


    "Hmph. You''ve seen enough right? Quickly return it to me." Ye Feihua had changed from her usual self, her face showing no signs of calmness. In front of a parietal bones, even she could not maintain her composure.


    Lin Xing could tell with just his ass that this skull contained the lifetime worth of ability of a sword immortal. This was also a true inheritance. It would be strange if Ye Feihua wouldn''t go crazy.


    He said, "Marshal Ye, there is no need to be so anxious. I will take a look and return it to you immediately." Come to think of it, I have long admired the third sword technique that Ye Shuai practiced. I wonder if Ye Shuai can teach me a few moves! "


    "Don''t get ahead of yourself." Ye Feihua was infuriated, wishing he could swallow Lin Xing whole.


    If looks could kill, Lin Xing would have died countless times over already.


    Lin Xing suddenly stretched out his palm, smiled at Ye Feihua, and said, "Then I ask that Ye Shuai be a bit generous, and lend me this skull for a bit more time. I have to take a good look at it. "


    "Fine, you win. I''ll give you the cultivation method for the first three stages of the third charge. " Ye Feihua saw Lin Xing''s stubborn look and understood that if he were to hand over the third wave divine sword skill to him, he would not let the matter rest. Suddenly, a symbol appeared in his palm and landed on Lin Xing''s forehead.


    Lin Qi did not resist and allowed the runes to enter his mind. After a while, he said, "Three levels is three."


    Lin Xing gritted his teeth and reluctantly returned the skull. He couldn''t really force Ye Feihua into a corner, otherwise, neither of them would be able to get anything easy.


    Ye Feihua was so overjoyed that he quickly carefully put away the skull. He then coldly glared at Lin Xing for a moment before leaving without even turning his head back.


    Lin Qi followed behind him with ease.


    Just as they left the mountains, Lin Xing and Ye Feihua received a message.


    The Heavy Sect and the Gate of Heavenly Mystery had already arrived and sent their disciples to search the immortal palace''s treasure trove.


    It was said that someone had secretly seen a peerless genius of the heavy sects beating the head disciple of the Sky Sect, Liu Fengyu, to the point of vomiting blood in three moves.


    When this news was released, it caused an uproar and shocked everyone.

 C132

    Three moves?


    It only took three moves to beat the Chief Disciple of the Sky Sect, Liu Fengyu, to the point where he vomited blood?


    One must know, the highest cultivation level that could enter the Residence of the Celestial Sovereign was only the Heaven Smiting Stage. And this disciple from a heavy sect only used three moves to defeat Liu Fengyu who was at the same realm as him!


    What kind of concept was this?


    Terrifying!


    When Lin Xing and Ye Feihua heard the news, the former could be said to be extremely shocked, causing shock to rise in their hearts.


    Ye Feihua smiled and said that this level of combat strength could only be considered mediocre in the Holy Land of Martialism.


    Lin Qi trembled as he imagined the scene. After a while, he could not help but feel the hairs on his body stand up.


    His heart was filled with yearning and anticipation for the golden land.


    Although he had the strength to kill Yun Chi, Yun Chi and Liu Fengyu were on the same level. With his current strength, he was still far from being comparable to those true geniuses of the major sects.


    The road was long, and he still had to walk slowly.


    After slightly organizing his emotions, he fixed his gaze on the various deities'' halls in the distance. Every single one of them was magnificent and magnificent.


    "Let''s go." Ye Feihua urged, the two of them travelling together towards the main hall.


    It was located in the center of the immortal palace where the Great Rudra Immortal used to live. All kinds of elixirs and treasures were hidden there.


    Everyone was moving towards that direction.


    Although the palace seemed very close to the immortal palace, it was actually very far. Lin Xing and Ye Feihua had to walk for nearly an hour before they arrived.


    Finally, they arrived in front of one of the halls. This place was filled with people gathered in groups of three or five. Each one of them had a vigilant expression as they surveyed their surroundings.


    Lin Qi was surprised to find that someone was holding a stone tablet that looked exactly like the one he had in his soul cave. He walked towards the door of a hall that was tightly shut. At the same time, a group of people also approached, strictly prohibiting anyone else from coming near.


    "Great Rudra Immortal Manor."


    Lin Qi rubbed his chin. The two stone tablets were carved out of the same mold as the one in his soul cave.


    Soon after, he saw the person holding the stone tablet directly insert it into a hole.


    Not long after, the doors of the great hall suddenly opened, and an incomparably ancient aura blew in from the front.


    That group of people were all overjoyed. They were clearly a group of people. Just as they were about to enter, a domineering voice came from behind them.


    "Scram ¡­"


    This voice was very domineering, sonorous and powerful. It was also filled with magnetism.


    He looked over and saw a tall young man standing behind them. The voice he had just heard was coming from his mouth.


    His eyes were vicious and his gaze was sharp. The aura of a king was as deep as the ocean. As he took a step forward, an imposing and fierce aura shot into the sky.


    The feeling he gave others was that he was like a giant made of steel, his body shining with a brilliant light, and his handsome face could be said to be perfect.


    Surprisingly, he was an absolute body expert.


    Lin Qi narrowed his eyes as he stared at Qin Wentian, as cold sweat unconsciously oozed out of his forehead. He could sense that Qin Wentian was extremely dangerous, and that Qin Wentian was someone not to be trifled with so easily.


    "He is the genius who defeated Liu Fengyu in three moves. Oh my god, that is too scary."


    "It''s him ¡­"


    Everyone was shocked and looked at him with reverence. The group of people who opened the door were also rooted to the spot, not daring to overstep their boundaries.


    This person wanted to kill them like slaughtering pigs and dogs.


    "Scram ¡­"


    The genius from the major sects had an impatient expression on his face as he let out another loud shout. At the same time, his footsteps gradually sped up, as if a giant beast filled with ferocity was charging over.


    The group of people blocking the entrance of the palace became silent like cicadas in the winter. They hurriedly scattered and didn''t dare to stop them at all.


    As soon as they opened the door, it was taken away by someone else. They could only blame their bad luck. Who would dare to provoke a strong warrior who had defeated Liu Fengyu in three moves?


    Lin Qi''s sharp eyes locked onto that figure, and his expression gradually turned unnatural.


    The genius from a major sect seemed to have sensed something. Just before he entered the great hall, he suddenly turned around, just like Lin Xing. A flash of surprise also appeared on his face.


    He discovered that Lin Xing and Ye Feihua were the only two people here that dared to look him in the eye without a shred of reverence.


    The corners of his mouth curled up in a cold smile. He looked away, and in the blink of an eye, was in the main hall. Then, the door closed behind him.


    After he walked past them, everyone looked at each other. The wariness in their eyes also suddenly disappeared, replaced with sympathy.


    Seven or eight people had already entered the hall. The only way to enter the hall was to use the key to open the door. Now, the last stone tablet had been stolen away.


    Some people were unwilling to accept this and went to other places to search for the key. In a short period of time, many people had left.


    "Take the key out and we''ll choose a hall." Ye Feihua turned his head towards Lin Xing.


    Key?


    Lin Qi thought of the stone monument, then nodded slightly and lifted his palm to the corner of his eye to examine it.


    After obtaining the flag, one of the three red dots had disappeared. Now, there were two more who were jumping around. One of them was constantly expanding as if it wanted to rush out.


    Under the guidance of the red dot, Lin Xing arrived in front of a large hall. Within this hall, a second treasure was hidden.


    Everyone present was staring at Lin Xing and Ye Feihua''s figures. Seeing them walk straight towards a large hall, their expressions were full of surprise and surprise.


    Under their watchful eyes, Lin Qi took out a stone tablet from the soul hole, and inserted it into a eye-catching hole on the door of the palace.


    Seeing this, everyone present went crazy and quickly gathered over.


    Boom ¡­


    After the stone tablet was inserted into the hole, the heavy stone door slowly opened. An incomparably ancient aura rushed over, mixed with a strange smell. The interior was completely dark without a trace of light.


    Lin Xing hadn''t even stepped into the main hall before a group of people rushed in behind him, all of them frantically trying to squeeze their way in.


    Without waiting for him to make a move, Ye Feihua immediately released his sharp sword Qi, killing the person that was charging over.


    "This palace hall doesn''t even belong to you two. Why don''t you let us in and force us into a corner? Don''t blame us for dismembering you."


    Not long ago, the person holding the stone tablet that opened the main hall shouted. His previous main hall had been snatched away by a genius from a major sect. Although he was indignant, he did not dare to show it.


    "Pa ¡­"


    Just as he finished speaking, an afterimage flashed in front of him, and a clear sound entered into everyone''s eardrums. The next moment, he was sent flying, his face swollen like a pig''s head.


    Everyone was stunned. As they stared at Lin Qi who had returned to his original spot, they too revealed expressions of reverence.


    The person he just sent flying was a genuine Great Circle of Dao Division.


    "What is it? You didn''t dare to vent your anger on that person just now, and now you''re bullying me? "


    Lin Qi looked around at the surroundings. His eyes were cold and filled with a chilling light.

 C133

    Everyone was startled, and then some lowered their heads bashfully. Of course, most of them still had unwilling and decisive expressions on their faces.


    They had to enter the hall where the celestial sovereign lived. The treasures were all hidden inside. Otherwise, wouldn''t they have run away empty-handed?


    As for the treasures and immortal energy in the surroundings, they were basically useless to the bunch of Dark and God''s people.


    They were not cultivators. If they were, they would willingly stay outside to absorb the Immortal qi. They would accept it, but they were not.


    However, no matter how eloquent their words were, Lin Xing and Ye Feihua remained unmoved.


    Naturally, the fewer people there were, the better.


    "Marshal Ye, we want to follow you in."


    Suddenly, five people squeezed into the crowd. They were all disciples of the Giant Spirit Sect. They were separated because they had rushed into the passage in the immortal mist.


    Lin Xing did not discover the figure of Giant Spirit. With his abilities, he should have already entered a certain hall long ago.


    Ye Feihua thought for a moment, feeling a bit awkward. If this example was broken, the others would go even crazier.


    "Big brother Lin Xing, can you bring us in?"


    Suddenly, another crisp female voice was heard. A young girl walked out from the crowd and stopped not far away from Lin Qi.


    She was Jue, and her lips were lightly pressed together. She would occasionally raise her head and look at Lin Qi with a pleading look in her eyes.


    Beside her stood a group of disciples from the Sky Sect, with Quan Li standing amongst them.


    This was especially so for the group of people following Quan Li. They did not dare to breathe too loudly in front of Lin Xing. They had deeply experienced Lin Xing''s brutality and strength.


    Lin Qi lifted his head and gazed at Jue, contemplating for a moment. In the end, he nodded his head and said, "Okay, you can enter."


    When Jue called out ''big brother'', his heart felt like it had been pierced by needles. An indescribable pain pierced his heart, so he made an exception in front of Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua''s eyes made contact with the slight change in his expression. His expression suddenly turned somewhat sorrowful, but very quickly, it turned into a cold smile.


    He said loudly to everyone, "You can all enter."


    The huge contrast between Ye Feihua and everyone else present was enough to stun even Lin Xing.


    This turn of events happened faster than flipping a book. Even if he were to scratch his scalp, he would still not be able to figure it out.


    Ye Feihua leered at Lin Xing for a moment, then led the five Giant Spirit Sect disciples into the main hall.


    The rest of the group also rushed in. None of them wanted to be slow.


    On the other hand, Lin Xing stood blankly on the spot, completely baffled by Ye Feihua''s actions.


    Jue walked up to him, his face gentle like water. He gently said, "Big Brother Lin, let''s go in too."


    Quan Li and all the disciples of the Heaven Seeking Sect also looked at him dryly. No matter how they looked at it, it seemed like they wanted to curry favor with him. If he didn''t give the order, this group of people wouldn''t dare to enter.


    "Mm, let''s go in." Lin Xing gently shook his head, regaining his composure. He licked his lips and led Jue and the others in.


    When the last person walked into the hall, the stone door closed once more, and the scene in front of them experienced a tremendous change.


    A setting sun appeared at the end of his vision. The setting sun was as red as blood, and the tall mountains were flickering in and out of existence in front of him. They brought a bit of light to this dark space.


    A faint red light shone on the path, but it was still dark on both sides. Ye Feihua was at the front leading the way, leading a team of two hundred or so people as they walked along the road.


    The interior of the hall was also a soul space.


    Whether it was the mountains, the setting sun, or the roads paved with bluestone, they all seemed very similar, as if they existed in reality.


    "Where is Liu Fengyu?" Aren''t you supposed to be by his side? " As he walked, Lin Xing''s eyes slanted towards Jue.


    When Jue heard this, he felt a great irony in his heart. He couldn''t help but bite his lips.


    After struggling for a long time, he gently said, "He was injured by that disciple from the Heavy Sect. He was no longer able to continue the treasure hunt, so he went back."

 C134

    "Oh, so it''s like that." Lin Qi nodded his head but did not say anything else.


    At this moment, Quan Li suddenly spoke up. He shot a respectful look towards Lin Xing and said, "Senior brother Lin Xing, will you still return?"


    His face froze for a moment, then he bitterly smiled and shook his head, "If I were to enter the Sky Sect again, Miss Quan wouldn''t be coming to my General''s House to collect debts, right? But as Miss said not long ago, I still have a clear understanding of myself."


    As soon as these words were spoken, Jue, Quan Li, and the other disciples of the Dancing Sky Sect were immediately startled.


    If not for Lin Xing''s reminder, they would have forgotten that he still had the Ancient God''s curse on him.


    Even if he could cultivate to his current strength, so what if he defeated a large number of disciples? In the end, however, he was still unable to break through the shackles of heaven and earth, and could never break through the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    And for them, even if they were disciples with the lowest cultivation here, their accomplishments in the future would far exceed even the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    After coming to this realization, their minds immediately became more balanced.


    When he looked at Lin Qi again, there was still that tinge of fear, but there was no longer any trace of respect in his eyes.


    Quan Li immediately shut his mouth about inviting Lin Xing into the Sky Sect.


    The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Jue''s pretty face flashed with a look of absent-mindedness and bitterness, but she didn''t say anything else.


    Lin Qi took a glance at their expressions and smiled wryly in his heart. He did not say anything else and gradually quickened his pace.


    Ye Feihua had always been in Lin Xing''s heart, always being enigmatic and mysterious. No one could guess what she was thinking.


    He led the five Giant Spirit Sect disciples to open a path in front of them. Their momentum was like a hot knife through butter. They broke through all the restrictions as if they knew the Immortal Sovereign Mansion like the back of their hand.


    As for the large group of people from the other sects, they closely followed behind Ye Feihua. From time to time, they would stretch out their eyes to scan the surroundings to see if there were any treasures.


    Lin Xing''s gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on Ye Feihua, a puzzled and strange expression on his face. He kept having the feeling that Ye Feihua knew a lot of things.


    There were many secrets about this Great Rudra.


    Suddenly, Lin Qi felt a burning sensation on his palm, causing his heart to tremble.


    When the others weren''t paying attention, he secretly glanced at his palm and discovered that the red dot seemed to be about to break out of his body.


    When he had obtained the flag, the red dot that had disappeared earlier had shown this situation. This meant that the second treasure was not far from him.


    "Tempest."


    Lin Qi sensed the presence of a large amount of lime in the air and his expression changed.


    "Be careful!" He cried out to Ye Feihua in front of him.


    Before the group in front of them could come to their senses, they saw spirit beasts rushing out from the mountains in front of them.


    In the mountains under the setting sun, the cold wind was fierce and bone-chilling. It filled the air with the netherworld''s aura. Everyone suddenly widened their eyes as spirit beasts came out of it.


    No, it would be more accurate to say that each and every one of them were from the netherworld. Their bodies were enveloped in a netherworld aura, and they were even more vicious than the beasts that mutated at the Spirit Molten Mountain.


    There were even some that only had skeletons. They didn''t have any flesh, and within their skulls hung pale-white eyeballs. It was extremely horrifying.


    The largest one was about twenty Zhang long, while the smaller one was slightly bigger than a tiger or a leopard.


    The nether beasts charged into the group in front of them in an instant. Some of them were devoured by the nether beasts before they could come to their senses.


    Very quickly, blood and flesh splattered everywhere. Ye Feihua and the five Giant Spirit Sect disciples were also surrounded.


    Lin Xing took a quick look around and realized that there were at least a hundred nether beasts. Almost every one of them was as strong as a Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator.


    In an instant, thirty or so people were massacred by the nether beasts.


    Fortunately, Lin Xing was far from the group of Sky Sect disciples and was not affected by the shockwaves.


    Lin Qi could sense that some nether beasts had lemons in them, which meant that these were not illusions. They were real, because the nether beasts that had lemons must be the descendants of the Great Honored Warrior.


    Apart from Lin Qi, the others quickly retreated far away.


    Jue Jue was dripping with sweat. It was obvious that she was scared. Even the normally domineering Quan Li was currently trembling.


    They had no intention of coming forward to help.


    Seeing Ye Feihua being besieged by the nether beasts and getting beaten into a miserable state, Lin Xing could not bear it anymore.


    Just as Jue wanted to stop him, he was the first to rush in.


    Two black lanterns appeared out of thin air. A large amount of immortal qi gushed out and headed straight for Ye Feihua.


    For him to be able to obtain the treasures of the first stage, Ye Feihua was of great help to him. Although in the end he could only take what he needed, Lin Xing was still very grateful in his heart.


    In addition, he still needed Ye Feihua''s help with the other two treasures. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to obtain them.


    Thus, he definitely could not allow Ye Feihua to die here.


    With a flash of immortal light, even the Heaven Smiting Stage nether beasts did not dare to touch it. They quickly dodged to the side, while Lin Xing quickly rushed in front of Ye Feihua.


    "Hmm? You''re not going to stay with your little lover anymore? " The sword aura around Ye Feihua rippled, but he was not injured in the slightest. Seeing Lin Ming approach, his tone was somewhat sarcastic.


    Lin Qi did not know whether to laugh or cry. Although they were fighting, he did not forget to exhale leisurely. He jokingly said, "You couldn''t be angry just now because of this, right? A dignified sword immortal like you can''t be jealous, right? "


    "Hmph, you think you''re worthy?" Ye Feihua puffed up his cheeks as he angrily cursed.


    Lin Qi wiped the sweat off his face and beheaded a nether beast standing in front of him. Countless rays of white light penetrated its body.


    I was angry just now because I felt a pain in my heart. To put it in my heart, after going through so many things, I now hold you in high regard, yet you were just so short-sighted and impulsive. I always thought you were very serious.


    Ye Feihua''s sword Qi grew even sharper and did not want to be outdone. Similarly, it slashed one of the nether beasts to death. Instantly, blood and flesh splattered, and a pungent stench assaulted the nostrils.


    "Really?"


    Although Ye Feihua was making a mockery of him, he was still quite happy to hear it. To be praised by Ye Feihua, he still felt somewhat flattered.


    "It''s fake." Ye Feihua chuckled.


    "Scram ¡­"


    Lin Qi could not help but curse, rolling his eyes.


    He looked around at the disciples of the various sects fighting with the nether beasts. Suddenly, his expression changed and he was jolted awake.


    He leaned close to Ye Feihua and whispered, "You knew there were nether beasts, so you deliberately let them come in to help you share the weight?"


    "That''s right. I did that on purpose, and only pretended to show them how to be angry. However, there''s one thing that you''re wrong about. Not only am I helping me, I''m also helping you." Ye Feihua smiled coldly.


    Seeing her smile, Lin Qi felt his scalp tingle. Her calculations were really deep.


    "What about the five Giant Spirit Sect disciples? That''s your subordinate, do you have the heart to? " Lin Xing asked.


    "They? "Look around." Ye Feihua suddenly turned as gentle as water.


    Lin Qi was stunned. He quickly scanned everyone''s face, but couldn''t find a single Giant Spirit Sect disciple.


    When did they disappear? He didn''t even notice.

 C135

    "Did you see that setting sun? That''s our target." Ye Feihua''s expression suddenly turned serious.


    Lin Qi also solemnly nodded his head. The red dot in his palm was constantly pointing in the direction of the setting sun, indicating that the second treasure was there.


    The two of them activated their celestial lamps and celestial swords. Instead of retreating, they charged forward and started to fight, quickly charging towards the setting sun.


    "Hurry up and follow them. They definitely know where the treasure is."


    The large group of people behind saw Clear Forest Awakening and Ye Feihua fly forward and immediately cried out in alarm.


    However, before they could finish speaking, they were suppressed by the roars of the nether beasts.


    With their strength, being able to protect themselves in the midst of the nether beasts'' siege was already a huge effort on their part, not to mention breaking through this barrier.


    For a moment, another seventeen or eighteen people were killed by the nether beasts.


    Afterwards, the smaller nether beasts immediately swarmed forward and devoured their bodies.


    Ye Feihua was the first to arrive under the setting sun. Stepping onto a small hillside, she flew up into the air and into the setting sun, immediately being submerged by the light.


    The setting sun was actually not too big nor too high. It could not be considered a real sun, but more like an artificial one.


    Lin Qi followed suit and jumped up as well. In a flash, his body was engulfed by the setting sun.


    The inside of the setting sun hid the universe. The path under their feet was the same as the outside. It was made up of green mountains, so there wasn''t anything special about it.


    On the other hand, there were two mountain and river paintings on the two sides of the road, extending forward so far that one couldn''t see the end of them.


    At this moment, Ye Feihua stood in place, wholeheartedly looking at the two paintings. From time to time, she would turn around, and from time to time, she would look back, her eyes flickering with a strange light.


    Lin Xing also discovered the strangeness of the two mountain and river paintings. The descriptions in the two paintings were actually exactly the same.


    Would one of them be reflected in a mirror? Doubts arose in his heart.


    Ye Feihua strode forward, her gaze still locked onto the two paintings.


    Lin Xing did not know what was going on either. He just followed behind her and occasionally raised his head to look at her.


    "Eh ¡­"


    Suddenly, Lin Qi cried out in surprise. The red dot on his palm began to jump violently. Even his palm was attracted towards the location of the painting.


    In the end, his palm landed on a green mountain on top of the painting. Ye Feihua noticed this action and quickly turned around. Her eyes narrowed as she looked at the spot where his palm was placed.


    Suddenly, Lin Qi turned his head and stared at the painting behind him, his eyes fixed on the painting. All of a sudden, he felt as if his illusions had been shattered.


    The item inside the two paintings seemed to have been removed, but with the support of the destroyed illusion in Lin Xing''s eyes, he immediately discovered that the spot where he had placed his hands earlier had an extra leaf on it compared to the painting on his back.


    The leaf was actually very big, but compared to these high water trees, it was completely insignificant. It was so small that if one did not pay close attention, it would be impossible to notice.


    His expression changed into one of shock. Then, he seemed to have understood something.


    He then extended two fingers and took out the leaf from the painting.


    "I''ve long since heard that the Great Rudra Immortal is actually a painting Immortal. I never thought that the rumors would actually be true. He sealed the treasure inside the painting, and then let the person come by to find out what''s different." Ye Feihua said, deep in thought.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth raised. He realized that this Great Rudra Immortal was rather interesting, to think that he could come up with such a method.


    That leaf was very ordinary. It didn''t emit any celestial spiritual energy. It looked like a normal leaf. It landed on his palm and was on the verge of collapse.


    Lin Xing squinted his eyes and suddenly blew out a breath of immortal qi, tearing the leaf into several pieces and then floating down to the ground with the wind.


    In the center of his palm, there was actually an extra pill.


    The light it emitted was extremely dazzling and overflowing with color, and the strong smell of medicine assaulted his nose.


    Following the appearance of the pill, the remaining two red dots on Lin Xing''s palm suddenly disappeared. He knew in his heart that this pill was the second treasure that this boy wanted.


    "The Supreme Dan ¡­" Ye Feihua was experienced and knowledgeable. With a single glance, he recognized the origin of the pill and immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.


    "Is this Ancient Era''s Pill a type of cultivation pill?"


    Lin Qi asked in surprise. Since this was a treasure that this little brat wanted to obtain by name, then there must be something special about it.


    "Not really. This is a divine medicine that can allow a person who is infinitely close to the cultivation level of Tai-level to have the strength of a Tai-level for a short period of time." Ye Feihua was surprised.


    Even if he was ignorant and inexperienced, he still knew about the name Tai Yin1.


    The Supreme One was an existence that was only beneath the Great Honored Warrior. Although it was not the supreme ruler of the world, it was still a supreme expert. It was a bit of a heaven-defying great being, and its strength was comparable to the Great Honored Warrior.


    Every single one of them was a well-known figure in the universe.


    At the very least, from ancient times till the present, there had never been such a terrifying figure as Taijin.


    "The first action of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery has not even started, yet they have already thought of the second step. It seems like they have really put in a lot of effort and plotted for many years. If the Gate of Heavenly Mystery wants to gain a foothold on the sacred ground of the Divine Mountains, then the sect must have an expert at the first level of the Grand Elder level in charge of it. The Gate of Heavenly Mystery obviously does not have an expert at the first level of the Grand Elder level, so they have to step back to gain a foothold. Ye Feihua said slowly.


    "So that''s how it is. "I was thinking quite far." Lin Xing said.


    "However, this is far from enough. The waters of the Holy Land of the Divine Mountain are very deep. In order to obtain resources, the great sects often fight each other to the death. How could they possibly allow an outsider to get a share?" Ye Feihua sneered.


    "Stealing resources? Didn''t you say that the flower bloomed everywhere? Why do we still need to snatch resources? " Lin Qi was stunned for a moment before he asked with a puzzled expression.


    Ye Feihua smiled and curled his lips at him. "The resources I''m talking about are not the Spirit Crystals in your heart, but are all kinds of ancient ruins and heaven-defying medicines."


    I am suddenly very curious about the third treasure. Forget it, I might as well help you to the end, and go with you to search for the third treasure. That land should have new forces attacking it, perhaps it will be very lively. Ye Feihua laughed softly.


    Lin Xing smiled wryly. Ye Feihua''s cleverness could be said to have shown no restraint in front of him. He had the urge to force her hand.


    "Let''s go, although this painting still has many treasures, it will take us a lot of time and effort to find them. The final destination of this passage below us is the Great Rudra Immortal Palace where the Great Rudra Immortal Palace is located, which is where the immortal cave is located. I think that Ris and some of the top experts of the younger generation should have already reached there, we should also head there quickly." Ye Feihua said.


    Lin Qi felt that this made sense and nodded his head without a second thought. The last red dot on his palm was also guiding him towards the end of the tunnel.

 C136

    The two unfurling paintings quickly reached their ends, and on both sides of them appeared another set of ancient doors, carved with ancient characters.


    Weapons Hall, Spiritual Medicine Hall, Alchemy Hall... Everything.


    As he walked deeper and deeper into the road, he noticed that there were more and more treasures. He was sure that the Great Luo Immortal Palace was not far away.


    Along the way, Lin Xing did not stay idle either. He separately rushed into the Alchemy Hall and the Spiritual Medicine Hall, taking a small portion of expensive elixirs and elixirs and putting them into the soul cave.


    In front of the treasures that were kept by the celestial sovereign, Ye Feihua was also moved. However, due to the lack of a soul hole, he looked at Lin Xing with jealousy and could only take away two long swords.


    If it was refining a sword, a weapon would also be indispensable. He also took two sharp swords from the Weapon Hall, but did not put them into the cave of souls. Instead, they crossed over and stuck them in his back, because the cave of souls was no longer able to contain them.


    Before long, the two of them had arrived at the end of the road. Flames could be seen burning in their eyes.


    In front of him was yet another great hall. Around the hall, there were many passageways and lanterns that lit up the corners of the hall. Although the light was very weak, it was exceptionally bright.


    In succession, some of the more powerful chief disciples of the great sects walked out of the tunnels and hurried over.


    Before Lin Qi even stepped into the hall, he heard the shocking sound of fighting coming from inside.


    The next moment, he was stopped in his tracks by Ye Feihua.


    "Xiaoxiao, hand over the Tianqi flower. You are alone and weak. Even junior sister Yin would not choose to help you. You will not be able to fight against me and Brother You You."


    Hearing this voice, Lin Xing did not need to guess to know who it was. He was Shen Shan.


    "That''s right. Junior Sister Cang, why did you stand up for that Lin Xing? As long as you hand over the Heavenly Seven Flower, we will also give you some other elixirs as compensation." Then, there was the sound of an arc.


    "No, this Tian Qihua has miraculous effects on my junior brother''s Ancient God Body. If you ask me to hand it over, you can forget about it." Cang Xiaoxiao''s voice was soft and weak, yet it was also extremely domineering.


    Upon hearing this, Lin Xing finally understood in his heart. The reason for Cang Xiaoxiao''s actions was all for him.


    His nose turned sour and sparkling tears rolled in his eyes. The next moment, he suddenly clenched his fists.


    In fact, Tianxiong Hua couldn''t be considered a high level spirit medicine. However, Shen Shan and Arisaema clearly knew that this was very effective for the Ancient God''s body. They both had a huge grudge against Lin Xing, so they definitely wouldn''t let Cang Xiaoxiao succeed.


    "Then I can only blame myself for being impolite. If I hurt Junior Sister, I''ll come back to the sect and apologize to you." Shen Shan said in a deep voice.


    Just as he was about to charge forward, he was pushed back by a powerful aura.


    "I can''t stand seeing girls being bullied the most. Furthermore, it''s you two men who are not free from embarrassment."


    Upon seeing this person''s appearance, everyone in the hall was emotionally moved. This person was the genius who made Liu Fengyu spit out blood in three moves, Sheng Haoying.


    Even if his strength was comparable to a Giant Sharp Feather, it wouldn''t be much worse. He had only used three moves to beat Liu Fengyu to the point of spitting blood? With this kind of combat power, Shen Shan and Liu You admitted that they were unable to defeat him.


    Seeing Sheng Haoying interject, Shen Shan''s expression changed again and again, eventually becoming ashen.


    To be honest, he didn''t want to offend such a heavyweight genius, but he also didn''t want Lin Xing to become the Heavenly Seven Flower, and then his strength would rise to a whole new level.


    After weighing the pros and cons, he made up his mind. He looked at Sheng Hao Ying and said: "Brother, you must know that this place is not the territory of your important sect, but our Sky Sect. This one only wants Xiaoxiao to hand over the Tianqi Flower, I am not bullying her. "


    "It''s just a small divine sect, I really don''t care about it. Today, I will protect this lady. If you want to fight with me, I don''t mind playing with you."


    Sheng Haoying came from the divine mountain sacred land, and he had his own pride. To him, a place like the Skysplit Sect was even worse than an uncultivated barbarian land.


    "You ¡­ Are they really going to intervene? " Shen Shan and You You''s faces were ashen. They never thought that this Sheng Hao Ying would be so presumptuous.


    "Thank you, senior, for drawing your sword to help. I am extremely grateful, but this is my personal matter. Senior, please do not interfere." Unexpectedly, Cang Xiao''s indifferent voice rang out.


    Hearing this, Sheng Hao Ying was startled, and then a sullen look appeared on his face.


    His gaze towards Cang Xiaoxiao became increasingly appreciative. Suddenly, he felt a sense of infatuation. This was the first time he had seen a mysterious lady who had the courage to reject his good intentions.


    "Hehe, it seems that Xiaoxiao does not appreciate Brother Sheng''s good intentions." Shen Shan immediately smiled mockingly.


    Sheng Hao Ying ignored him. He looked at Cang Xiao''s devastatingly beautiful face and smiled faintly. Then, he turned around and retreated to the side.


    When Cang Xiaoxiao was really in danger, he might not be able to make his move in time. Perhaps, it might even have some miraculous effects. The corner of his mouth curled up in a smug smile.


    "Xiaoxiao, now you are alone again. Hand over the Heavenly Seven Flower and you will still be my junior apprentice sister." Shen Shan walked forward with vigorous steps.


    There were many other disciples of the great hall, such as Tian Zong and Yin Valley''s spirit, who turned a blind eye. No one had any intention of helping.


    Cang Xiaoxiao did not say anything and only firmly shook her head. Her pair of big eyes were blurred.


    "Hmph."


    Shen Shan let out a muffled groan and immediately rushed over. At the same time, he performed a divine technique.


    Cang Xiaoxiao was also the chief disciple. If he did not use his full strength, it would be very difficult for him to defeat her.


    He had only taken two steps when an ancient beast''s aura suddenly swept out from behind him, approaching his head in a flash.


    At the same time, it enveloped both Shen Shan and Liu You.


    At the same time the two of them were shocked, they subconsciously turned around and activated the godly technique that they had just activated.


    The collision of power was extremely shocking, and the entire palace was shaking as well. Everyone looked towards that direction in astonishment.


    At this moment, Feng Li''s power was displayed so vividly that even the two Heaven Smiting Stage geniuses were almost unable to block it. They had to take seven or eight steps back to stop themselves.


    The faces of all the sect leaders and disciples revealed their shock. Two of them were actually unable to withstand the attack, what kind of battle power was this?


    However, what caused them to be even more shocked was that the person who attacked was only at the Dao Division.


    After confirming repeatedly that he was indeed in the Dao Realm, they rubbed their eyes vigorously to confirm that he was indeed in the Dao Realm.

 C137

    "Junior brother!"


    Cang Xiaoxiao''s eyes shone brightly. When she saw the appearance of the newcomer, happiness immediately lit up on her face as she walked up to Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi grabbed her wrist, his eyes soft and filled with sincerity.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    Shen Shan and Arc Swamp narrowed their eyes at the same time. Their gazes were as sharp as knives and two killing intent locked onto Lin Qi at the same time.


    The next moment, another wave of killing intent rushed towards him. Lin Xing looked over and saw that this killing intent originated from Tian Zong, the arrogant young man from the Netherworld Sect.


    But now, he had obviously restrained his temper a lot. He was no longer as arrogant as he had been before, but instead had an exceptionally gloomy and cold expression.


    All of the two hundred thousand ghost soldiers were pulled out by the Giant Spirit Sect in a short period of time. Due to his incompetence, he was punished by the sect, because this matter was of great importance, even if the direct ancestor were to speak up, it would be useless.


    Although this punishment did not cripple his cultivation base, nor did it directly kill him, it was even more terrifying. It was a torment to his soul that, when thinking about it up to this point, he broke out in a cold sweat.


    Later on, he finally knew that all of this was caused by Lin Qi. It was this young man in front of him who caused him so much pain.


    Not long ago, he received another piece of news. Lin Xing had stayed in the immortal palace and not only had he killed Yun Chi, he had also brutally killed hundreds of the elite disciples of the underworld.


    Without a doubt, this caused his hatred for Lin Qi to deepen by quite a bit. The two of them were absolutely irreconcilable.


    Beside him stood a beautiful woman in a green robe. She was also in the Heaven Smiting Stage and was also one of the chief disciples of the Yin Master School. After knowing Lin Xing''s identity, she also released a killing intent towards him.


    As for the Yin Valley Spirit, it stared at Lin Qi with a dazed and complicated expression. It also released a wave of energy that pressed down on him.


    Although she also had a good impression of Lin Xing, this sort of good impression wasn''t worth anything in front of the righteousness of the sect.


    Perhaps Lin Xing had taken the initiative to hand over the Great Honored Warrior secret technique. Otherwise, she would have to intervene.


    There were also many chief disciples of major sects present. They had no enmity with Lin Xing, nor did they have any friendly relations with him. They were just watching from the sidelines or watching a good show.


    The Northern Tomb King, Ma Tian and Zi Yin were also among them. They quietly watched this scene with bright eyes, but did not make a sound.


    Giant Thoughts had also arrived early. Previously, he had been studying the murals on the walls of the great hall. As he leapt into the air, he saw that Ye Feihua had also appeared, so he immediately jumped down.


    Seeing Ye Feihua standing next to Lin Xin Hua, looking as if he was about to fight alongside him, Giant Thoughts sighed helplessly. He then rolled his eyes at Lin Xing and walked over to the Lin Xing faction.


    The five killing intents locked onto Lin Qi, immediately attracting everyone''s attention.


    Many people who didn''t know him guessed who he was! He had pulled out so much aggro the moment he entered the field.


    In addition, Giant Creed had also joined his side, which immediately brought the two sides a lot of balance of power.


    Sheng Hao Ying''s face was brimming with excitement as he looked at Lin Xing with an interesting expression. He then shifted his gaze to Cang Xiaoxiao. With a turn of his mouth, he actually stood next to Shen Shan.


    This scene caused many people to be flabbergasted.


    Wasn''t the Heavy Sect the reinforcements that the Giant Spirit Sect had hired? How could he be on the opposite side of Giant Leviathan? How could he be on the same side as the Sky Ascension Sect and the Yin Master Sect?


    Although he knew that he was a disciple of the Giant Spirit Sect, the two of them did not have any relationship. As for the matters outside, it was a business deal between the senior executives of the two sects and they did not have a great relationship with the younger generation. Furthermore, Sheng Hao Ying had always held a playful attitude.


    Moreover, when he saw Lin Qi, an indescribable feeling of discomfort arose in his heart.


    When Ju Si saw his actions, his face collapsed. Hao Ying was very strong, making him aware of the danger. His physique was no weaker than his.


    Lin Qi, on the other hand, was calm. His cold gaze swept over the six people''s faces and suddenly let out a sneer.


    "Sister Xiaoxiao, help me stop the Yin Valley Spirit. Ye Shuai, help you stop the female disciple of the Zong Yin Sect. Giant brother, help me stop the Heavy Sect disciple, Sheng Hao Ying."


    Lin Qi pointed out the name, and the division of labor was very clear. He began to call Giant Reed his brother too.


    "What about Shen Shan, Yu You and Tian Zong?" Cang Xiao smiled in surprise.


    "I''ll stop one of them."


    An astonishing youth''s voice rang out, emitting a boundless immortal aura. Ma Yu and Zi Yin walked over at the same time, and stood not far from Lin Xing, ready to join him.


    "Thank you. Please help me stop Tian Zong."


    Lin Qi clasped his hands and said gratefully, "Two of you. However, Ziying only has the strength of a Dao Division, so it''s obviously useless. Only by making a mistake can he stop Tian Zong."


    "There are two more people ¡­"


    Everyone had a question mark above their heads, Lin Xing''s ultimate goal was definitely Shen Shan, but what about Yu You? Who would stop him?


    After being stared at for a while, the Northern Tomb King smiled shyly and shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to say something, he was caught by surprise by Lin Xing, who said, "I alone am enough to deal with the two of them."


    "What?" The Northern Tomb King''s expression froze, and the others also had faces of astonishment.


    "Junior apprentice-brother." Cang Xiao held Lin Qi''s right arm with both of his hands and shook it with all his might. Clearly, this was not a wise decision.


    Weird, Lin Xing also knew that this was an unwise decision. Under Cang Xiaoxiao''s persuasion, he did not move an inch, a resolute look appearing in his eyes.


    Was he that confident? One had to know that his cultivation was only at the Dao Division, and he had no idea how many years Yuanyou and Shen Shan had already stepped into the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    With regards to Lin Xing''s decision, everyone was stunned. As for Shen Shan and Liu You, their faces turned ashen as if they had just received a serious challenge. It seemed that Lin Xing did not put them in his eyes at all.


    The two of them were the chief disciples of the Divine Arts Sects. They had stepped on the heads of countless young elites. Which one of them wasn''t arrogant? But now, they were being challenged by Lin Xing, who was at the Dao separation stage, making them fly into a rage, their killing intent dancing crazily in their eyes.


    "Hmm? Arrogant, hehe, since you insist on challenging both of them at the same time, I don''t think there''s a need for all of us to fight.


    An arrogant person like Lin Qi was rarely seen in the Holy Land of the Divine Mountain, because this kind of person was destined to not live more than three seconds.


    Tian Zong was no exception. He hated Lin Qi to the bones. Even though he could not personally kill him, it was worth being pleased to see him die tragically in front of their eyes.


    "Lin Qi, if you want to challenge both of us at the same time, then we''ll grant you that wish. Even if you die, you''ll die because of your own stupidity." Shen Shan coldly said.


    Before the sound of his voice had even faded, everyone saw an afterimage appear where Shen Shan was. However, his real body had already disappeared. The speed at which it happened was so fast that it left people speechless.


    In the next moment, Arc Traversing also took action. He moved like a dragon or tiger as he dashed forward like lightning. The fierce and oppressive aura was suffocating as he released a large amount of divine light from his body.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Xing''s face was expressionless. He subconsciously activated the Fake Destroyer Technique and found Shen Shan''s position, causing a black light to fly over.


    Following that, he summoned his second black lamp. It emitted a seemingly gentle white light, but in reality, it was bone-chilling cold. It collided with the divine technique that Arc Travelling Technique used.

 C138

    Shen Shan was adept at speed, and his figure was extremely fast. Lin Xing was simply unable to catch him and his surroundings became a blur, causing the corners of his eyes to blur.


    With a wave of his two arms, he spread out like a pair of wings. His entire body was evolving, and like a Golden Winged Peng, he pounced forward with a killing blow, accompanied by a surging stream of divine power.


    Lin Qi immediately activated his illusions to search for Shen Shan''s figure. Following that, a black light shot out, bringing along a sharp air current and a cold radiance as it shot towards Shen Yi.


    The next moment, a second black lantern lit up, and a large white light shone out, forming a screen of light that blocked his figure.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, a crisis came from behind Lin Qi. A large amount of divine power swept over. Shen Shan had circled behind him. Behind him was a black light.


    His speed was even faster than the black lamp. Even though the black lamp was like a maggot attached to a bone, like a shadow that was following him closely, it was still unable to catch up to his footsteps.


    The first move of the Art of the Emperor performed by the Arc rover was also abnormally powerful. This was a divine art that was infinitely close to the Supreme Realm secret art. In his hands, its power increased by multiple times.


    The strength of the two Heaven Smiting Stage geniuses were both very shocking. They were both the chief disciples of large sects and they were figures that would attract the attention of all the stars to support the moon no matter where they went.


    Even many of the older generation recognized their strength as inferior.


    However, at this moment, if word were to spread out, no one would believe it.


    Including Tian Zong and some of Lin Xing''s enemies, they all broke out in a cold sweat for him.


    However, what was even more unbelievable was that under the combined assault of the two of them, Lin Xing was able to move with ease without the slightest bit of panic.


    Even though Shen Shan and Arc You both shot their killing blows at him at the same time, he still did not compromise. His handsome face was as calm as ever, and it was filled with determination.


    Just as the killing intent reached his back, two more beams of white light appeared in front of his chest and back, blocking his attacks.


    At the same time, the Luan Frost Stinger flew out from the soul hole, striking towards the arc in front of him.


    Then, he took out his Black God Bow and nocked an arrow with it. With a "sou" sound, he shot it into the air.


    The Luan Frost Thrust was temporarily able to block the Emperor''s battle technique. He could not help but grunt. With a wave of his right arm, boundless energy swept out, and the Luan Frost Thrust could only rapidly fly backwards.


    At this moment, Lin Xing had already shot out the Xuan Iron arrow.


    Puff ¡­


    In a certain space, a string of blood splattered out. The blood splattered onto the bodies of a few people.


    After that, a white robed figure appeared from the void and rolled on the ground in a sorry state.


    He was Shen Shan, who had been lying in wait in Lin Xing''s surroundings. Lin Xing had shot him in the stomach, causing a bloody hole to appear. One could even faintly see the intestines wriggling inside.


    Seeing this scene, everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.


    Shen Yi''s speed was extremely fast and his surroundings were filled with afterimages. As for his real body, it was impossible to catch him. Even Jain Si and Sheng Hao Ying had difficulty finding him in a short period of time.


    But how did Lin Xing find him?


    "It was a prediction." Ye Feihua''s eyes lit up.


    Upon hearing these words, most of the people nodded their heads thoughtfully. Lin Qi had clearly figured out Shen Shan''s movement trajectory and had fired out that arrow a moment ago.


    However, there was not only luck, but also calculation. They all knew that this was definitely not a coincidence.


    As for this point, even Giant Creed secretly shook his head and admitted that he was inferior.


    Shen Shan fell to the ground with heavy injuries, fresh blood continuously flowed out from his abdomen. What was even more terrifying was that Lin Xing''s arrow contained Death God Power.


    Although it wasn''t many, it still made him feel unbearable pain. Cold sweat poured out of his body, and he lost the ability to fight again.


    The reason for this was that he did not have any deep grudges with Lin Xing, and Lin Xing did not wish to kill him. Otherwise, the Death God Power that was attached to the arrow would not be this tiny bit.


    Shen Shan had been defeated, and was sitting aside to recuperate. The Yin Valley Spirit had also come to help him suppress the Death God Power.


    Lin Xing turned his attention to Arc Swamp.


    When Arc Traveller saw Shen Shan being hit by the arrow, his face immediately became gloomy. He raised his head and roared. A series of explosions immediately occurred in the air.


    Following that, streams of air that were sharper than the edge of a blade shot out from the space that was split open. The Arc Swamp''s palms slashed forward as the air current came crashing down in all directions.


    Standing beside Lin Xing, Ye Feihua, Ju Xin, and the others all backed away in shock.


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold, and all four of his black lanterns rushed forward to meet the incoming attack. A curtain of white light instantly formed around them.


    Puchi ¡­


    After a series of crackling sounds, a figure fell to the ground under a large amount of white light, smashing into the ground.


    As expected, the figure that fell to the ground was Arc Swamp. His expression was ashen, and blood flowed unceasingly from the corner of his mouth. His gaze towards Lin Xing was filled with disbelief.


    The pride of a genius from a great sect had been easily trampled into pieces by a mere Dao splitting expert.


    On the other hand, Lin Xing was completely unscathed, except that his face was slightly pale due to the excessive consumption of his physical strength. The other parts of his body seemed to be fine.


    Everyone present at the scene first glanced at Shen Shan and Su You, then cast their gazes at Lin Qi. They were all shocked to the point that their eyeballs were popping out of their sockets.


    Today was truly an eye-opener.


    The prodigy from two years ago had only just returned, yet he had already defeated two great experts. He was proving to the world that even if he were to fall into despair, he would still be powerful.


    "Trash."


    At the scene, only Sheng Haoying was still looking at Lin Qi with disdain.


    Hearing this, everyone was helpless, Shen Shan and Yu You almost spat out a mouthful of blood, their faces were full of shame.


    "Is there anyone else who wants to fight me?"


    Lin Xing''s sharp eyes paused on Tian Zong and the girl beside him for a while. The two of them did not utter a single word as they directly turned their faces away and did not meet Lin Xing''s gaze.


    Finally, Lin Zhi''s gaze landed on Sheng Haoyin. The provocative look in his eyes was extremely strong.


    "Hmph, do you think you have the qualifications to challenge me just because you defeated these two trash? It won''t be too late for you to come and challenge me after you enter the Heavenly Cauldron. As for you right now, you''d better keep that provocative gaze of yours, otherwise I''ll definitely make you pay. "


    Sheng Hao Ying''s voice was like thunder, each word was sonorous. A fierce aura was emitted from the surface of his body, striking fear into the soul.


    When everyone heard this, they came to a sudden realization. Sure enough, this Heavenly Cauldron Monster was not as strong as Giant Leviathan''s strength that came from the same Broken Body faction.


    Lin Qi pursed his lips, no longer bothering with this matter. Right now, it was impossible for him to defeat a Heavenly Cauldron Monster.


    Without absolute confidence, he would not attack again.


    Then, he walked to the four walls and observed the murals carved on them.

 C139

    "Void Tomb." Great Rudra Immortal, you truly are amazing. "


    Ye Feihua walked up to Lin Xing''s side and stared at the mural for a while before letting out a surprised tone.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi began to carefully study the murals, his expression becoming more and more amazed. At the same time, he extended his right hand to gently touch the murals.


    When his fingers touched the wall, they didn''t emit the icy cold aura they should have. Instead, they gave off a warm feeling.


    The scene in the mural around him was like an endless sea of stars. There were stars and moons inside the mural, and the milky way was filled with stars and moons. Bright rays of light were flickering, and it was shocking, as if it was a real starry sky.


    In fact, this was a real starry sky. It hung in the sky, a corner of the universe where the Great Rudra buried his body.


    "This mural should be the tunnel to the starry sky." Ye Feihua''s eyes glittered.


    Once he said this, everyone in the hall surrounded him.


    "How do I get in?"


    Cang Xiaoxiao, who was standing on the right side of Lin Xing, observed the mural for a long time before asking Ye Feihua.


    Ye Feihua smiled slightly and said, "This is very simple. All you need to do is blast open the wall. However, let me remind you that there is a real void inside. Once you step in and get lost, you will never be able to come back. No one knows where exactly it will be sent to, and it''s not impossible for it to be sent to the void. "


    These words fell into everyone''s ears, and they simultaneously revealed a look of contemplation. It seemed ordinary, but in fact, it was even more dangerous than the obstacles they passed through. If they were not careful, they would sink forever into the sea of stars, until they died of old age, or be exiled into the void.


    "Now that things have come to this, who''s willing to back out? I''m in favor of it with both hands. It''s better to have a few less people to share the contents." Tian Zong sneered. He was not afraid of death.


    Everyone was silent as they heard this. Their expressions were all in deep thought.


    This starry sky was undoubtedly the burial ground of the Great Rudra Immortal. The treasures inside were much more powerful than the ones outside. As the saying goes, wealth comes from danger. Many people gritted their teeth and made up their minds.


    "Let me break this wall."


    The huge beast took a big step forward. At the same time, a blood-red light rushed up into the sky from its entire body. It released an endless amount of power. The surface of its right fist seemed to be burning with a flame.


    Ju Li Si possessed an unparalleled physique. Once he revealed himself, he attracted everyone''s attention. Astonishment also flashed through the depths of Sheng Hao Ying''s eyes. Ju Li''s strength had caused even him, a prodigy from a major sect, to be shocked.


    Boom ¡­


    A fist landed on the wall, and the mural instantly underwent a shocking transformation. It also emanated an ancient and ancient aura, as well as a boundless immortal aura.


    In the next moment, the entire hall began to shake. Dust fell from the ceiling, scattering dust all over the hall.


    Before the crowd could disperse the dust, a huge attractive force suddenly gushed out from the wall that was blasted open. The huge brute was not paying attention and was directly sucked in.


    There was no need to mention the others, they were all instantly swallowed by the boundless starry sky.


    As soon as he stepped in, Lin Xing could feel the space growing infinitely larger. Before he had entered, Cang Xiaoxiao and Ye Feihua were only half a meter away from him, and now, he could only faintly make out two shadows in the distance, getting further and further away.


    After calming himself down, Lin Qi took a step forward. Soon, not even a single shadow could be seen. It was as if he had stepped into the vast sea of stars by himself.


    Even though there was life and light, in his eyes, it was as pale as death.

 C140

    The sea of stars was boundless. One part was bright, and the other part was dark. The Milky Way spanned across the horizon, and the scene was dreamy and astonishing.


    Suddenly, the last remaining red dot on his palm jumped up and down, ready to burst out of his body at any moment.


    Lin Qi suddenly gripped his hands and stepped on the air. Under the guidance of the red dot, he headed towards a certain direction.


    His expression was solemn, and his eyes shone with a strange light. Every step he took was filled with caution.


    This place was densely covered with teleportation formations. They were hidden in the void and could not be sensed. They could only rely on their luck, because if they were not touched by it, they would immediately be teleported out.


    As for whether he would be transported outside the celestial sovereign''s estate or deeper into the sea of stars, Lin Xing did not know.


    If it was the former, it could be considered lucky. But if it was the latter, it represented those who had been sent out, forever banished to the depths of the sea of stars until their deaths.


    Not long after, under the guidance of the red dots, he arrived at a place filled with treasures. The void here was filled with floating elixirs, elixirs, or other weird-looking weapons.


    But strangely, these things were all very ordinary. Whether it was elixirs, elixirs, or weapons, they were all not of high quality in this immortal palace.


    In fact, it wasn''t even comparable to what Lin Xing had obtained in the stone palace.


    However, to Lin Qi, these things were still rare treasures. However, he did not take them. Instead, he continued to walk forward, because he could no longer hold them in his soul cave.


    "Replenishing Saber Sword Technique!"


    Suddenly, he encountered a green glyph hanging in the air. Lin Xing''s curiosity was aroused. He reached out his hand to touch it, and the glyph immediately transformed into a green light that drilled into his body and appeared in his mind.


    This was a sword technique cultivated by sword immortals. Looking at this level, it was far inferior to the third sword technique. It did not seem to have any profoundness, and it was extremely simple.


    However, the first sentence attracted Lin Qi''s attention, causing him to shudder.


    "In the ancient times, sword immortals had to learn this technique."


    This sword art was something that only sword immortals had to learn in the Ancient Era. Later on, in the Ancient Era, it was broken, and even some sword immortal sects today only practiced incomplete scrolls.


    In other words, the sword technique that Lin Xing was using to make up for his mistakes was the most complete one in this era.


    This... Things were precious when they were rare, and this could be called a godly skill. It was even more valuable than the Supreme Realm secret art.


    Now that he had two divine weapons and a sharp sword, he could increase his strength by another level after a brief training with the Third Tier Divine Sword Technique and the Saber Replenishing Technique.


    There was a technique for sword immortals that needed to be supplemented. Immortal energy was the natural enemy of nether energy, and the sword immortals were also the opposites of the absolute body.


    While the sword immortal''s technique was recognized as the sharpest attack in the world, the body of the body was like a shield in front of the sword immortal, and the sword immortal was like an unstoppable sharp sword.


    If Lin Xing could successfully cultivate the sword skill, then he wouldn''t have to worry about not being able to deal with Sheng Hao Ying.


    The journey was calm and uneventful. Lin Xing finally arrived at the destination indicated by the red dot.


    "Celestial Medallion!"


    Not far from Lin Xing''s eyes hung a simple and unadorned token. The ancient aura was mixed with celestial spiritual energy and was emitting from it. On the token was carved the word ''Immortal''.


    Lin Qi held the token in his hand. The next moment, the last red dot on his palm disappeared. Even the entire map had turned into nothing.


    This is the third treasure that this brat, Leng Ning, wants!


    This token didn''t have any earth-shattering power, nor was it mysterious. It looked simple and simple, not the slightest bit inconspicuous. Compared to the two treasures from before, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.


    Lin Qi examined the token for a long time, but still couldn''t figure out what was going on. He squeezed out a palm-sized hole in the soul hole and stuffed the token in.


    Since this token could be used to accompany the burial of the Great Rudra Immortal, it must not be an ordinary object.


    It must be of great use, just that Lin Xing did not know about it.


    Since he had entered the Star Sea, his journey had been smooth sailing, and he hadn''t run into any danger. He suddenly became a lot braver. After thinking for a while, his eyes fixed and he stepped out.


    The deeper one went, the more treasures there would be, and the more treasures there would be. This was probably where the secret of the end of the ancient era would be buried.


    In fact, there might even be a secret about why the Ancient God''s body was abandoned by the gods. These were all things that he desperately wanted to know.


    "Crap!"


    However, as soon as his foot landed, his expression sank into panic as he sensed the aura of the teleportation portal.


    He wanted to pull it out, but it was too late. Purple rays of light suddenly radiated from his body, wrapping around his body. He was unable to move, unable to resist.


    But at the last moment when he was about to leave the sea of stars, his eyes touched upon a figure.


    It was a person floating in the depths of the sea of stars. He was floating in the sky with his eyes closed, clad in hemp. His body was lifeless, and his face was peaceful. He was a corpse.


    However, when Lin Qi saw the facial features of the corpse, he was immediately filled with shock.


    Wasn''t this the mysterious old man that he was desperately searching for?


    The Death God Power and Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern, these two heaven-defying powers and the Supreme Realm secret technique were both directly and indirectly created by this person.


    Mystical, had always been his synonym. His entire person was filled with oddity and strangeness, and from his tone, the Sky Sect was just a junior.


    Lin Xing had been searching for him, wanting to ask him about the method to break the Ancient God''s curse.


    Unfortunately, this person was extremely elusive and had no results.


    And now, Lin Xing actually saw this person in the tomb of the Great Rudra Immortal. Not only that, it was a corpse.


    How could he believe this!


    Could it be that he had just fallen, and he came to the tomb of the Great Rudra Immortal to obtain some soul force?


    While he was guessing wildly in his mind, his body had already arrived at a barren mountain wilderness.


    In just a split-second, he was teleported out.


    After a moment of shock, he withdrew his consciousness from Galaxy and the corpses. He fixed his eyes on the surrounding terrain.


    A reminiscent look flashed across his face for a while before he finally let out a long sigh of relief.


    He patted his chest. It seemed that his luck was good, and he was teleported straight back to the Azure Silver Country.


    And this place was an unknown mountain in the country of Green Silver.


    Lin Qi had passed by this place before when he was being chased by Li Liu. Due to the crisis, he didn''t pay much attention to the terrain. However, some vague memories remained in his mind. He recalled them after a long time.


    He looked in the direction of Black Wind Mountain and saw that it was still submerged in darkness.


    Afterwards, he madly ran in the opposite direction of Black Wind Mountain, and didn''t return home. He wanted to go to a place where no one could find him, so he could have time to cultivate sword skills and improve his strength.


    Moreover, he had killed so many elite disciples of the underworld. Now that this matter had been exposed, how could those old monsters of the underworld let him go? If he went back, he would die.


    Since he had obtained the three treasures, he believed that Xiao Liang would not go back on his word. At the very least, he would be able to protect the general''s manor.

 C141

    Lin Qi ran as fast as lightning. Before long, he had crossed over a large group of mountains and rivers and arrived at an even further mountain range.


    There was a small interlude in the middle. As Lin Xing was on his way, he caught sight of Giant Spirit. However, he wasn''t too close to him. He only saw him from afar in the forest, so he didn''t greet him.


    Giant Grace didn''t notice him and just stood there in a daze, as if he had just been teleported out of the sea of stars.


    Lin Xing had discovered him. His skin was sculpted, and the vicious aura around him had become much stronger than before. Obviously, he had also encountered an opportunity in the sea of stars.


    This person was born to be a proud son of heaven. No matter where he went, he would be able to pick up treasures as he wished. Back then, this was the case in the Spirit Transformation Mountain, so Lin Xing did not find it strange.


    Three days later, on a barren mountain, a youth''s figure was looking around while executing a formidable sword skill. The surrounding sword qi surged as he slashed out, causing flowers, plants, and trees to shatter with a crack.


    His sword techniques flowed smoothly, but they were incomparably fierce. Especially his third attack, its power would increase exponentially.


    "Third charge, divine sword skill!"


    The sword in his left hand was placed horizontally across his chest as he pounced forward. A large piece of leaf passed by him, and when he landed, each leaf was broken into several pieces.


    He sheathed his three meter long swords and stabbed them into his back. A satisfied smile appeared on his face.


    In these three days, he painstakingly practiced the sword, whether it was the third level Divine Sword Technique or the Saber Replenishing Technique, both had already reached the beginning level.


    Now, he could be considered half a sword immortal.


    At this moment, his eyes suddenly glazed over, and his brow creased slightly. Then, it relaxed.


    A white shadow appeared in the dense forest in front of him. With a few flashes, the shadow appeared in front of him.


    "Fairy, you came really quickly. I was just about to go find you."


    The white-clothed figure that appeared in front of him was none other than Little Rascal Liang. Seeing her beautiful figure, Lin Xing forced a smile on his face.


    "No need, your situation is very dangerous, it''s better if I come looking for you. Fortunately, you have hidden yourself well, if you were to be captured by the people from the Heaven Seeking Sect and the Underworld Sect, it would be a huge loss for me." The youngster leisurely strode forward as he paced back and forth around Lin Qi.


    Lin Xing smiled and asked, "How is my family?"


    "Don''t worry, they are all very good. Our sect has already sent many experts here and no one dares to touch them. Now, you should hand the things over to me right?" The youngster stopped in his tracks. His voice was suddenly rather cold as his gaze locked onto Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi sighed lightly, he did not immediately take out the three treasures, and said with a grave expression, "Please bring my family back to live in your Profound Sky Sect, and protect them strictly."


    "Are you bargaining with me? Actually, I have also considered this matter, my immortal gate experts cannot stay here to protect you all forever. I also suggested this to your father, but he did not agree. "How about this, I''ll talk to him when we get back." The kid said coldly.


    Lin Qi sighed. He naturally understood his father''s temperament. This was a place where he would rather die than leave.


    As long as Lin Shen did not agree, the other seven would not leave.


    "Thank you." Lin Xing said coldly to the little brat.


    He then sighed helplessly and said, "If my father is unwilling to leave, no one can force him. I ask Fairy to persuade him again. Your celestial sect people should go back, I will protect my family. "


    "You protect!" The little brat''s eyes glazed over.


    Could it be that he didn''t know that at this very moment, the Shadow Sect had sent out an expert who was as powerful as the Golden Scale Guards of the Descending Sky Sect, and was currently on a bounty for him?


    Furthermore, the Great Elder of the Heaven Seeking Sect had also said that he must capture him. Just because he was not a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Sect and had the secret technique, the Heaven Sect would not let this matter rest.


    Lin Qi was silent for a moment before he lightly sighed and took out the three items from his soul hole. With a wave of his sleeve, he threw them at Little Liang.


    The three items stopped in front of the boy''s cold body and were supported by a layer of immortal energy. Her gaze swept across the three items as a look of ecstasy flashed past her eyes.


    These three things were related to the future of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, and it was impossible for her to remain calm. She also did not expect that Lin Xing would actually be able to do it.


    Of the red dots the brat gave him, one would disappear after he obtained a treasure. She could sense that if he were to take one or two items for himself, he definitely would not be able to bear the crazy pursuit from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery.


    "Are you coming back with me? I guarantee that you will not be harmed in the slightest. You can also personally go and advise your father to follow us back to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. Little Liang put the three items into his soul cave as he spoke with a pleasant surprise in his eyes.


    "No, I still want to train here for a while." He knew that his father would not agree.


    Next, he still had to make preparations to break through to the Heaven Smiting Stage. The matter of advancing to the Heaven Smiting Stage was extremely important, and it was related to his future success or failure; the General''s Estate was undoubtedly not the best location.


    Hearing this, the boy, Liang, bitterly shook his head and did not try to persuade further. He turned around and left.


    She had only taken two steps when she suddenly turned her gaze towards Lin Qi and smiled, "Why are you so bad at cultivating the sword?"


    Before he finished his sentence, he had already disappeared, leaving behind a stunned Lin Xing.


    Judging from his cold tone, he did not seem to like sword immortals at all, even though they both came from the same line of descent.


    Soon after, Lin Xing also left.


    Two days later, he appeared in the territory of the Skypiercing Sect, in a small city of some unknown country.


    Without hiding anything, he walked into a restaurant, ordered two side dishes and a jug of wine, and began to drink leisurely.


    "Did you hear? The experts from the Heavy Sect and the Gate of Heavenly Mystery have arrived. Now that the nearby major sects are forced to act like cowards, they don''t even dare to fight anymore."


    "Sigh, I also heard that the people from the Heavy Sect are too strong and they heavily injured the Sect Master. Even the sect elders did not dare to take revenge and some of the top experts in the sect had already retreated back into the sect."


    These news spread like wings across the territory of the Skysplit Sect and became a topic of discussion after the meal. They gathered in groups of three or five, and it didn''t matter if it was the rumors or the news that came through official channels, they could complain as much as they wanted.


    I just received news that in the Lin Family of Green Silver Country, there is a person called Gu Yuan. He was brought here by a mysterious woman from a powerful sect to observe the beauty of the body. She said that she wanted to take him in as her direct disciple and bring him back to be groomed, but that Gu Yuan actually disagreed.


    Someone exposed a huge force that immediately shook everyone''s spirits, and they all surrounded him.


    Hearing these words, the wine cup that Lin Qi had just raised instantly froze, and his eyes became filled with excitement.


    This Lin Family, not only is they insane, they also have Gao Yan, who was also heavily injured by that elite Yin Master from the Heavy Sect, saying that he is a rare and rare physique training genius, and that his physique is not much weaker than Ju Li Si, yet they wanted to take him in as their disciple. Another person spoke with spittle flying everywhere. His expression was incomparably excited; this matter was exactly the same as what he had personally experienced.


    "Right, right. Lu Hen and Lin Xun were also chosen by the Leader of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. However, the two of them were not moved at all. Tell me, this small Lin Family is like a crouching tiger, hidden dragon, and yet each of them is a madman. "


    When Lin Qi heard the news, his face turned extremely strange and interesting.


    At the same time, a youth walked into the restaurant, causing him to frown.


    This person wore a white robe, had a handsome face, and had a straight chest. His temperament was quite extraordinary.


    Lin Xing did not know him, but if Lin Xing was not mistaken, this person should be cultivating the Hidden Heaven Technique.


    Ever since he started cultivating, this was his first time seeing a hidden expert, so he couldn''t help but be amazed.

 C142

    The white-robed young man''s gaze met with Lin Xing''s at the same time. Surprise flashed across his face, and then, with a thought-provoking smile, he walked towards Lin Xing.


    The white-robed youth walked to the table that Lin Xing was sitting at and sat down as if there were no one around.


    "Brother, I am Xuan Ze, may I sit here?"


    The white-clothed man smiled and spoke in a euphemistic tone. Although he said so, his butt had already sat on the bench before he opened his mouth.


    Lin Qi didn''t mind at all. He raised his wine cup, placed it next to his mouth and lightly smacked it before putting it down at a leisurely pace.


    "I wonder where Brother Xuan Ze came from?" Lin Qi asked softly.


    "Oh, I came from far away, and this is where I was born, so I came back to see you." Xuan Ze said with a smile as he stared at Lin Qi.


    "Just taking a look!" Lin Qi''s mouth moved slightly as he drained the cup of wine in one gulp.


    Xuan Ze moved a glass of wine from the table to the side and poured himself a cup as well. Hearing Lin Xing''s words, he slowly raised his head.


    He smiled and said, "Yes, let''s take a look. However, I also wish to meet the young elites here. I have already prepared a tea party to invite the elites of the world to have some tea and share some cultivation experiences. The head disciples of the Yin Master School have all agreed to come to the meeting, are you interested? "


    "Are you from the Yin Sect?" Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold and the surrounding air was instantly filled with cold air.


    Xuan Ze''s expression froze as he hastily waved his hands and explained, "No, no, I''m not from the Yin Master School. That''s only the place of my birth, and Elder Wuchang is my martial uncle, so it''s natural for me to know this group of people."


    "So that''s how it is."


    Hearing the name "Qu Wuchang", Lin Xing''s heart skipped a beat. He suddenly thought of his abnormal behavior. This person was a recluse, not seen in the Black Wind Mountain war. He had a strange temperament and was hard to fathom.


    "What, do you have enmity with the Yin Master School?" Xuan Ze made a few insinuations and tried to guess Lin Xing''s identity.


    "Nope." Lin Xing replied indifferently.


    "Would you like to attend? The publically accepted number one genius, Giant Wisdom, as well as that senior brother of the Heavy Sect has also agreed to come. For any young person, this is a matter of pride and satisfaction. " Xuan Ze seemed to value Lin Qi a lot as he continued to invite him.


    "Sorry, I''m not interested."


    Lin Qi suddenly stood up, leaving behind a stiff sentence as he turned around and left with his two swords strapped to his back.


    On the surface, he didn''t seem to care, but his heart was in turmoil. Xuan Ze was a hidden expert, yet he had just come back and had such a huge network of connections. He even invited Ju Li Si and Hao Ying.


    Not to mention the fact that Jardiness was a typical overweeningly arrogant person who would never sell anyone''s face, it was truly unbelievable that she would agree to Xuan Ze coming to join them.


    Xuan Ze watched him leave with a strange expression on his face. He picked up a glass of wine and gulped it down.


    Thinking back to the indistinct aura Lin Xing released, his pupils suddenly contracted.


    "Weird, weird. This person''s cultivation is only at the Dao Division level, but he could bring me a fatal danger."


    He shook his head and bit his lips a few times. After some thought, he turned around and left as well.


    He had just left the restaurant when his figure flashed three to five times, appearing outside the city.


    "This person is extraordinary." I''m curious to know who he is. "


    He was chasing after Lin Qi, but Lin Xing''s silhouette had long since disappeared. A mere Dao Seeking expert had vanished without a trace in front of him, this was something that he couldn''t believe.


    Four hours later, the entire world was dark. There were no stars or moon, not even a sliver of light. It gave people an extremely depressing illusion, as if they were trapped in a dark cage.


    At this moment, at the foot of the mountain, in a hidden forest, Lin Xing sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. The Death God Power around him had increased tremendously.


    The most dangerous place was also the safest place. Lin Xing Zhen arrived at the foot of the mountain of the Heaven Seeking Sect and dashed towards the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    However, this was also a gamble. If he could lure the heavenly cauldron down, then he could escape death. If he couldn''t, then it would mean that he would eventually be unable to break the curse and everything would go back to two years ago.


    If the worst came to the worst, the two sects wouldn''t have to send experts to kill him, and he might just die under the heavenly tribulation.


    If he didn''t succeed, he would die. He was risking his life.


    When the Death God power surged to its peak, it immediately soared into the sky, as if transforming into a pitch black pillar, as though it was going to split the sky open.


    At this moment, the forest trembled and shook the world. The disciples who were patrolling the sky on the night watch were all shocked. Those who were so sleepy that they couldn''t keep their eyes open also felt refreshed.


    However, before they could regain their wits, the boundless Death God Force immediately scattered and engulfed the entire sky, enveloping the entire black curtain.


    At this time, not to mention the disciples of the Skysplit Sect, even some of the elders were startled. The higher-ups of the sect all flew out of their caves to watch this scene.


    "What a dense Death God Power. From the looks of it, this person is trying to break through to the Heaven Smiting Stage."


    "That''s right. Look at this power. It has even resonated with the heavens and the earth. It is certain that the Heaven Cauldron will be activated."


    "Haha, the Heavens have eyes! After hundreds of years, a Heavenly Cauldron freak is finally about to appear!"


    The group of seniors in the Heaven Ascension Sect were all pleasantly surprised. Some even cried as they looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh. This was too exciting.


    The Northern Tomb King was not counted because he was not a disciple of the Heaven Rising Sect after all.


    "Send out the Golden Scale Guards and seal off that place. Kill whoever dares to go near."


    The Great Elder of the Heaven Ascension Sect issued an order with his iron blood. It was not easy to produce a Heavenly Cauldron monster. He couldn''t let someone disturb him at such a crucial moment and let him off the hook.


    Following the order, a total of eight golden lights flew out from the gates of the Skypiercing Sect, completely sealing off the area within a hundred mile radius around Lin Qi.


    "Tell me, which disciple of our sect is this? Even his master is about to bask in the light."


    "Wang Jian? Feng Yuan? Guo Huai Xuan? "


    The group of seniors were whispering to each other, saliva flying from their mouths as they continuously discussed. The three names they said were all ultimately rejected by the person with a shake of their head.


    "I don''t think so. Take a look. It won''t be long before we know the answer."


    "Mm ¡­"


    However, just as they finished their words, another wave of netherworld spiritual aura rushed out from the foot of the mountain and soared into the sky, dispersing into another wave of netherworld. The entire world was filled with terror.


    "What?! This is netherworld spiritual energy? How is this possible?! Could it be that he is not a disciple of the Sky Sect?"


    The old monsters from the Dancing Sky Sect were no longer calm. Their eyeballs had dropped from their sockets, and their faces were filled with rage and unwillingness.


    After a long while, it turned out to be a black dragon.


    "Haha, your sect is quite knowledgeable. If your sect were to think of a Heavenly Cauldron freak, it would take another two hundred years. Whether it is the previous divine power or the nether energy, both of them contain a large amount of death aura, so they must be disciples of my Yin Master School."


    Suddenly, a group of figures flew over. Leading them was an old man with a pair of grim eyes. Behind him was a group of armored soldiers wearing rhinoceros armor. They were not any weaker than the Golden Scale Guards of the Dancing Sky Sect.

 C143

    "Yin Master, Seventh Elder."


    Upon seeing the old man''s appearance, many of the older disciples of the Heaven Seeking Sect cried out in surprise. A look of surprise appeared on their faces.


    This person was famous for his brutality. He once massacred millions of people by himself and absorbed their souls to refine the soul flag.


    Moreover, his cultivation was extremely strong, almost on par with the devil flames. Thus, no one would be willing to provoke this devil.


    "All of you should also go and seal this place off."


    The seven elders of the Yin Master School shouted. A group of black armored men behind them scattered and landed next to each Golden Scale Guard.


    "Haha, what a freak! No matter which elder''s disciple he is, this old man will take him in."


    His wild and arrogant laughter was just this tyrannical. Anyone who stood on the ground and heard his name were all silent.


    However, in the next moment, his laughter suddenly stopped. A wave of energy from nature swept through the entire universe, causing the entire sky to tremble.


    "Tianyuan ¡­"


    All those who saw this scene couldn''t help but cry out in shock. Their expressions became extremely complicated and intensely shocked.


    The moment the three different types of powers were released, everyone was dumbfounded.


    However, before they could regain their senses, a holy force once again soared into the sky.


    At this moment, the crowd looked as though they had seen a ghost.


    Especially the high-ranking members of the Sky Ascension Sect and the Seven Elders of the Yin Master Sect, their faces were full of uncertainty, and became exceptionally marvelous.


    As soon as this force appeared, a large group of people floated over in less than two seconds.


    "Immortal Qi ¡­" Nether Force ¡­ How is that possible? "


    This group of people were all dressed in bright clothes and were emitting an undisguised aura. There was a halo above their heads. They came from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery and were reinforcements brought over by the Giant Spirit Sect.


    When they saw the scene in front of them, they were stunned into a daze with expressions of shock.


    At the same time, in a nearby city and restaurant, many young men and women were also dumbstruck by this scene.


    Many of Lin Xing''s old acquaintances were gathered here.


    For example, the Yin Valley Spirit, Ye Feihua, Giant Thoughts, Sheng Haoyin, and many other top characters of the younger generation.


    They were all invited by Xuan Ze.


    The tea party had just begun. Xuan Ze hadn''t even spoken two sentences before he was drawn towards the four powers that had shot up into the sky. He walked over to the window and stared blankly at them.


    "Lin Xing ¡­"


    The second type of netherworld spiritual energy appeared in Ye Feihua''s mind, and the image of a young man appeared. It was only when the immortal spiritual energy appeared that she was able to confirm her thoughts. She spoke the name confidently.


    "It''s really him!" Giant thought took a deep breath.


    The other people''s expressions all became marvelous. Their expressions were all different. Some of them were lost in thought, while others were gnashing their teeth ¡­


    "Is that the Lin Xing that you just mentioned?" Four types of power cultivation, unprecedented in history. Even with my experience, I''ve never heard of such a thing. I am very curious, just what kind of monster is this person. " Xuan Ze was stunned. His face was also filled with shock. His face slightly contorted because of this.


    The restaurant was brightly lit. They stood next to the windows, looking in the direction of the Skypiercing Sect with a gentle breeze blowing. No one could maintain their calm as they cultivated all four powers together. This talent was simply too heaven-defying.


    "Hmph. But that prerequisite is that he can break the curse or else everything will be useless. I''m afraid that the scene from two years ago will return to this day once again. That would truly be a joke." Immediately, someone sneered. He was Lin Xing''s enemy, Tian Zong.


    When these words were spoken, many of the youths who hated Lin Xing felt comforted, and their hearts suddenly became much calmer.


    "That''s right. If he can''t break the curse, then you two sects won''t need to do anything. I''ll be the first to kill him. Although killing a weakling will dirty my hands, I don''t mind this time." Sheng Haoyin spoke with a domineering tone.


    "How many ancient gods have their bodies been destroyed by the hands of the heavens? How can the curse be broken so easily?" The Yin Valley spirit lowered its head and sighed.


    Most of them maintained their silence, staring fixedly in the direction of the Heaven Ascension Sect.


    At the same time, on the peak of one of the mountain peaks, stood a lady clad in green. Her long hair fluttered in the wind as she stared at the scene before her with a peculiar glint in her eyes.


    "Junior brother, is that you?"


    The woman whispered. Her expression was very serious. She didn''t even glance at Shi Mu as she held her breath.


    At this moment, another force surged out like a torrent from the foot of the mountain.


    Roar ¡­


    This kind of power was different from the immortal qi or the nether energy that people knew about. It was very unfamiliar to anyone, but it was more tyrannical than nether energy, more violent than divine power, and even more intimidating than Heavenly Origin.


    Once it was released, the entire world seemed to have returned to the time of the ancient gods, and a thick aura of desolation and desolation rushed towards one''s face.


    Roar ¡­


    A world-shaking beast''s roar resounded under the dome, lingering for a long time.


    The faces of the older generation members of the Sky Ascension Sect and the Seventh Elder of the Yin Master Sect turned ashen. They felt as if they had been slapped in the face. Many of them were even furious.


    They knew in their hearts that this was definitely not a disciple of either of the two Sects.


    "It''s Feng Li. This person is not simple at all."


    In the restaurant, Xuan Ze felt the aura of a ferocious beast and was startled. He recovered his breath and rubbed his chin with an odd expression on his face.


    "What is lemons?"


    Many of those who didn''t understand immediately asked, but Xuan Ze didn''t answer them. Instead, he solemnly stared at the scene in front of him.


    At the same time, the sky in the sky above the Skypiercing Sky Sect started to shake violently. It seemed as though there was something terrifying descending from the sky, as though it wanted to break through the heavens.


    Boom ¡­ Boom ¡­


    Sounds of collisions could be heard from the sky, causing the world to turn pale and the entire universe to tremble.


    In the next moment, a bronze wall broke through the curtain of darkness and slowly descended from the sky.


    Only one side of the bronze city wall was revealed, and it was as if it was only the tip of an iceberg. A thick aura engulfed the entire world, giving off an incomparably ancient feeling.


    There was also a black bronze door on the bronze wall. Right now, it was closed; this was the door to the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "Heavenly cauldron ¡­"


    He really did it.


    At this moment, the heavens shook and the earth quaked.


    "No matter who he is, since he has advanced in my sect, he will be the head disciple of my sect. Whoever dares to come and snatch him, my sect will overturn the power of my sect and kill him."


    The Great Elder of the Deities Templar was extremely anxious. He was an unparalleled genius, and he had to be captured in his hands.


    And to Lin Qi, the activation of the Heavenly Cauldron was just the beginning.


    He suddenly opened his eyes and shot out two rays of sharp light. Then, he slowly stood up and raised his head to look at the cauldron.


    Suddenly, his body floated into the air and floated up into the air. The Sky Cauldron sent out a surge of power to receive him.


    Just as he emerged from the forest, everyone could clearly see his appearance.


    When they saw this young face, only a few people revealed looks of surprise. Most of them had an appearance that was as expected.


    The same was true for the seventh elder of the Yin Mountain Sect, as well as other senior figures of the Sky Sect.


    In reality, they had already guessed that it was Lin Xing. That was because he was the only one who had revealed five different types of power in this world. However, he knew his identity, so no one revealed it, nor did they reveal an expression of displeasure.


    Their two sects had grudges with Lin Xing, but no matter how big the grudge was, compared to the status of the Heavenly Cauldron Monster, it was negligible.


    Therefore, they might as well pretend to be deaf and mute, using the most unfamiliar form to rope Lin Xing into their own sect.

 C144

    Of course, under this premise, Lin Xing had to reverse the shackles. If he did not succeed, then so be it. The higher-ups of the two sects would let him know what was worse than death.


    The descent of the Heavenly Cauldron shook the world.


    Two years ago, at the same place, all those who saw the same scene could not help but fall into a trance. It overlapped with just this moment, as if it happened yesterday.


    This youth, just like two years ago, was the center of attention and received the admiration of countless people.


    Lin Qi was attracted by the energy radiating from the Heavenly Cauldron. He stood tall and straight, floating in the air as he raised his head slightly. The depths of his eyes were filled with determination as he stared at the bronze city walls that peeked out from the sky, his eyes brimming with vitality.


    "It''s him ¡­" Seeing Lin Qi''s appearance, Xuan Ze''s face froze for a moment before a funny smile broke out on his face.


    As his body floated into the air, the connection above him trembled. Thunder rumbled, and a large cloud formed in the sky.


    Soon after, there was an explosion. The void completely shattered, and the space shattered. It was as if something from the sky had rushed out, causing everyone in the desolate lands to be terrified.


    At the same time, he activated the Heavenly Origin Stage in his body. This was a nine days tribulation that only the space realm had to endure, but this heavenly tribulation was much more powerful than the normal ones that could trigger the Heavenly Cauldron.


    The might of the heavens was vast, as if a vast ocean had suddenly appeared. An astonishing amount of energy descended, directly enveloping Lin Ming within.


    Lin Qi raised his head and looked at the display of Heavenly Might. There was no expression on his face, only sadness and joy. Two cold glints flashed past his eyes.


    Boom ¡­


    All of a sudden, the void was completely shattered by the mysterious force. A black hole formed in the skies above Lin Xing, its interior pitch black, not allowing him to see anything. The heavenly might it exuded lasted for a long time, an incomparably oppressive feeling.


    He frowned. Suddenly, a large amount of black Qi flow appeared in his vision. He then activated the Heavenly Source outside his body, turning it into a green light flow. Then, he started to fight against the sky.


    The black stream of air descended in large numbers. It was sharper than a blade, and as it passed through the air, ear-piercing sounds continuously rang out.


    The green stream of light collided with it, directly crushing the most violent stream of air in the center into pieces. The air flow that did not suffer any impact on the two sides immediately turned a corner in the air, and pounced towards Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi instantly took out two sharp weapons from his back and sent out seven or eight sword qi, blocking the black gas flow.


    After the black gas completely disappeared, Lin Xing''s speed suddenly increased. However, this was not his intention. Rather, he could not help but speed up. This was the power of the Heavenly Path, and he could not control it.


    Two years ago, Lin Xing had already passed through the calamity. He could not be considered familiar with the path, but he was prepared for it, so he did not appear to be in a panic.


    His rising speed became faster and faster, finally comparable to the speed of lightning. And at this time, not too far away from his head, an iron mountain had actually appeared.


    Tie Shan was very large, and he was able to block out half of the sky. Lin Xing was also unable to control his speed, so he directly slammed into the mountain.


    Boom ¡­


    With a boom, that iron mountain suffered a heavy blow. The two sword glows cut through the night sky like arcs of lightning. The iron mountain was immediately torn to pieces, turning into black light and dissipating.


    Lin Qi was already prepared. The moment before he had rammed into Metal Mountain, he had released a powerful sword Qi.


    The second heavenly tribulation was safely over. It seemed as if the heavens couldn''t wait any longer and directly brought down the last two heavenly tribulations.


    These two heavenly tribulations were a giant arc of lightning and a black ball of light. The arc of lightning flashed and disappeared within the black hole. When it reappeared, it was already above Lin Xing''s head.


    However, that black ball of light was even faster than a bolt of lightning. Before Lin Ming could even react, it had already enveloped him.


    What Lin Qi saw was naturally pitch black, and his vision was covered by the black blob of light.


    In the next moment, the black blob of light suddenly produced the howls of the evil spirits. On the black wall of light, a scene similar to mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared.


    Faintly visible were many black ancient cities in the distance. They were filled with undead souls as miserable screams echoed in the air. That evil aura directly rushed into Lin Xing''s heart, making him feel like he had fallen into purgatory, as if he was in hell.


    "A great tribulation? That''s a very rare calamity. Someone who could trigger a great tribulation is a monstrous genius that the heavens hold in high regard."


    "Yeah, back then Jiran didn''t trigger any great tribulations, but this Lin Xing cultivated five strengths at the same time. Was he trying to defy the will of the heavens?"


    The group of seniors below were all stunned as they discussed incessantly.


    This scene did not occur two years ago, causing Lin Qi to panic a little.


    Two years ago, lightning first struck and then that black coloured light ball appeared. Now, it descended at the same time. Therefore, Lin Xing was at a loss. He clearly did not expect this to happen.


    The lightning bolt arrived in an instant. Without giving him any time to think, it immediately activated Void Illusions and shattered them. Two rays of sharp light shot out from the depths of its pupils. In the next moment, it charged into the black wall of light.


    Then, one could see the ancient city within the wall of light, as well as a few black mountains, collapsing in groups.


    Soon after, the black ball of light disappeared, and Lin Xing saw that the lightning bolt had also arrived right above his head.


    He rushed forward and slashed twice in the air with the sword in his right hand. When the third sword appeared, its power increased exponentially as it aimed at the electric arcs.


    In the restaurant below, when Ye Feihua saw this sword, she did not feel Jiang Hong''s lips tremble twice. What Lin Xing had used was the Third Tier of the Divine Sword Technique.


    The electric arcs collided intensely with the third thrust of the godly sword, causing sparks to fly everywhere.


    Lin Xing leapt into the air and stabbed his sword into the electric arc, chopping it in half from head to toe.


    As expected, the arcs of lightning had dissipated, and Lin Xing had passed through four to nine days of tribulation. Lin Xing was now only a few feet away from the Heavenly Cauldron.


    However, an unprecedented look of concentration appeared on his face. If he remembered correctly, the heavenly tribulation that had destroyed his cultivation had descended at this moment.


    As for everyone who was standing on the ground and could clearly remember the scene that happened two years ago, they all held their breaths at this moment.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, an unexpected event occurred, and a voice resounded throughout the sky.


    That sound was like a drum but not a drum. It was like a bell but not a seed. It did not stop for a long time, as if it had merged with the world itself. In short, it was extremely strange.


    "The Voice of Heaven."


    Many of the seniors were shocked.


    Just as Lin Qi raised his head to look at the sky, a giant bolt of lightning suddenly shot out of thin air beneath his feet.


    His attention was completely focused on the voice of the heavens, and he did not notice the abrupt change below. By the time he had regained his senses, the lightning had already arrived in front of him.


    This lightning bolt was more than ten times bigger than the previous one. Its might was also several times stronger. Merely its might could cause others to feel despair.


    "The heavens are actually playing in the dark." Some people could not help but curse loudly, simply overturning their understanding.


    At this critical moment, even Lin Xing''s nemesis, Tian Zong, Shen Shan and the rest all broke out in a cold sweat for him.


    If Lin Qi wanted to use his power, it would be too late. He could only use the Hidden Heaven Technique. An invisible force evolved and pushed the giant electric arc to the side, almost brushing past the electric arc.


    When the electric arcs failed, they quickly fused into the air and disappeared along with the sound of the heavens.


    "Is it a success?"


    The heaven and earth calmed down. Lin Xing''s mind was unable to calm down. He did not feel happy at all. Instead, he felt an inexplicable heaviness.


    "He really did it." As Giant thought of Lin Xing''s past, he couldn''t help but sigh.


    Ye Feihua, however, did not mind. He stared at Lin Xing high up in the sky and muttered to himself in a voice that only she herself could hear.


    "This is just the beginning. To you, the nightmare of the Ancient God Body has only just begun."


    At the same time, Cang Xiaoxiao, who was standing on top of the mountain peak, started to shed tears. Sparkling tears continued to flow from her bright eyes.


    On the adjacent mountain peak, tears fell down from the old man''s eyes. At last, he felt somewhat gratified in his heart.


    Lin Qi took a glance at the ground below him, and let out a long sigh. His expression changed to one of unswerving determination, as he knew that he still had a long way to go.


    He turned around and pushed open the black bronze door. Just as he took one step inside, he heard a gentle voice coming from the entrance of the Sky Sect.


    "Little Friend Lin, you don''t have to worry about the future, you can practice as much as you want in the Heavenly Cauldron. I will protect your family."


    The person who spoke was the Yin Sha, representing the will of the entire Sky Sect.


    It was only at this moment that the Sky Sect''s attitude towards Lin Xing took a 180 degree turn.


    When Lin Qi heard this in his heart, he chuckled lightly without saying a word. With the second step, his silhouette instantly vanished.

 C145

    In the dense forest of the barren mountains, a winding path led to a serene place. Dense spirit energy surged unceasingly.


    Even though the Heavenly Cauldron was the holy land of cultivation and was the place countless youths yearned to enter in their dreams. However, there wasn''t any immortal energy or divine power within, there was only spiritual energy. However, the spiritual energy was so dense that there was no way to describe it.


    After absorbing it into one''s body, one would still have to refine it.


    This barren mountain did not look much different from the outside world, but it was filled with an ancient aura. The depths of this mountain felt like it had returned to the ancient era.


    Everything was full of vitality. It was luxuriously purple in color, with mountain valleys hidden in the distance while the clouds and mist were hazy.


    Lin Qi glanced at the sacred ground that had existed since the ancient times, and a look of surprise flashed through his eyes. The truth was that he had not imagined that there would be flowers blooming all over the ground.


    Finally, he shifted his gaze to the front of his body and fixed his gaze on the face of an old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.


    "Kid, do you know that you have to respect the elderly and cherish the young? If I am old and weak, can you really make a move? And I saw this Chihuahua first. You have to be reasonable. "


    Not far in front of Lin Qi was a sloppy-looking old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He held a beautiful flower in his arms as he yelled at Lin Qi while jumping and kicking.


    Just a moment ago, he had arrived at the same place as Lin Xing, colliding directly into the ground. At that time, there was a beautiful flower growing on the ground. It was extremely enchanting and moving, and one could tell with a single glance that it was no ordinary item.


    Unfortunately, before Lin Qi could react, the old man was like a reincarnated hungry ghost, rushing towards him and uprooting him, tightly holding him in his arms.


    Before Lin Xing could react, the old man made the first move. He scolded nonstop, causing Lin Xing''s face to be covered in dirt.


    "You''re already so old, how did you attract the Heavenly Cauldron''s descent? Do you think you''re so thick-skinned as to be even thicker than a city wall?" Lin Xing was amused. This was not a freak with the Heaven Cauldron, but a weirdo.


    "Who cares what I''m doing. I''m currently teaching you how to respect your elders and love your children. You''d better not do anything rash."


    As the old man spoke, he slowly stepped back with a vulgar expression on his face.


    Lin Xin rolled his eyes and said, "You keep it, I won''t rob you."


    "Hmph."


    The old man gave two dissatisfied snorts before putting the flower into his spiritual cave.


    Lin Qi stared at him and couldn''t help but roll his eyes. He then took out two pills from his soul hole and swallowed them.


    When he was undergoing his tribulation, even though he hadn''t been injured, a large amount of his essence energy had been consumed. Now that he had consumed the medicine, he was once again brimming with vitality.


    When it came to soul caves, after he had advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage, the area of the soul cave had doubled, reaching a depth of five meters.


    As the depth of the soul hole deepened, the interior immediately became more spacious and empty. Looking at the spacious and empty space, Lin Qi was dissatisfied. In the end, he simply pulled out the two sharp swords from his back and kept them.


    However, he was not in a rush. He had just arrived at the Heavenly Cauldron, so he had plenty of time to find resources.


    "Kid, what is your name? Is this your first time coming to the Heavenly Cauldron?" The old man looked at Lin Qi and smiled sinisterly.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing was stunned, looking at him with a strange expression.


    "Ah, a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue. Did I say that you just arrived at the Heavenly Cauldron?" Embarrassed, the elder quickly covered his mouth with his palm.


    "Yes, my name is Lin Xing. May I know where you are?" Lin Xing politely said.


    He noticed that the old man had a strange personality and was disrespectful. As they chatted, it was rather interesting.


    Furthermore, he had just entered the Heavenly Cauldron, so he urgently needed to know everything about this place. If he could find out from the old man, it would be a shortcut.


    "Hmm hmm, look at this. Pull up your ears and listen carefully, this old man is very strange."


    The old man immediately pretended to be a ghost, with one hand behind his back and his head slightly raised, as if he was a master of the dao.


    But then again, this old man was from the immortal sects, so he didn''t need to intentionally provoke him. There was really something going on.


    However, in the next moment, his true form was revealed. Suddenly, he heard a whistling sound coming from the forest in the distance. He was scared out of his wits and immediately laid down on the ground.


    Lin Qi wiped away his sweat. He really wanted to beat him up.


    "Brat, if you don''t want to die, then hurry up and lie down." The old man yelled at him in anger.


    Lin Qi shifted his gaze, his heart trembling slightly. Listening to the tone of the old man''s voice, it was obvious that he was not joking.


    He immediately did as he was told and laid down on the ground as well. He then raised his head slightly and saw three figures dashing through the forest. The sound of the wind breaking was like a clap of thunder.


    The two figures in front were in a sorry state. Their faces were ashen, as if they were fleeing for their lives.


    As for the person behind him, his face was filled with a sneer. His body was covered in a flame-like red glow, and any plants that touched him immediately turned into ashes.


    This was a monster with a peerless body.


    At the moment, he was acting the role of a hunter as he chased after the two people in front of him.


    In the next moment, Lin Qi saw a man being chased by a monster with a broken body. With a single palm, he turned the head into a pile of meat paste. He did not even have the chance to resist.


    It wasn''t that he didn''t want to resist, but that the pursuer was too strong.


    When the other saw this, his face was filled with terror as he ran forward with all his might.


    As Lin Xing saw this, he was shocked. He simply couldn''t remain calm at all.


    Those who were able to enter the Heavenly Cauldron were no ordinary people, they were all freakish level 1 geniuses.


    However, that absolute body cultivator was actually able to kill a monster like a pig or dog. It was extremely easy and casual.


    Only when they were far away and the sound of wind had completely disappeared, did Old Man Sang Qi slowly stand up from the ground. He didn''t forget to wipe off the dust on his body.


    "Did you see how dangerous this Heavenly Cauldron is? Luckily, you met me. Otherwise, you wouldn''t even know how you died." The old man said with a complacent expression.


    At this moment, Lin Qi also stood up from the ground and took a deep breath. Even now, he still hadn''t recovered from his shock.


    He had a feeling that if he was the one who killed the Heavenly Cauldron Monster, would he be able to avoid another fatal blow from that monster?


    He couldn''t help but ask with a trembling voice, "We''re all Heavenly Cauldron freaks, and they''re all in the Heaven Smiting Realm. Why is the difference so huge?"


    "Ignorant." Old Sand rolled his eyes at him and said, "The Heavenly Cauldron Monsters are divided into three grades, nine grades. People like you are only the lowest level of Qi Scholars. As for that body sculptor, he is a level higher than Qi Scholars."


    "Chee? "A hero?" Lin Xing''s eyes widened.


    "You don''t know? I thought you were ignorant, but you refused to accept it. Let me tell you, there is a higher level genius known as Tianshu. That kind of person is a genuine Heaven''s Pride. Any one of them would be enough to scare you to death." This old fart actually made a face at Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Hearing the old man''s words, he was truly shocked in his heart. The water in this Heavenly Cauldron was very deep.


    "Anything else?" He suddenly opened his eyes, shooting out a sharp gaze, and asked powerfully.


    Hearing his question, the old man was stunned, and then he disdainfully said, "You really dare to continue asking. If I''m not lying to you, then there are indeed others who are above Tianshou. However, I''ve heard that the Heavenly Cauldron hasn''t appeared in five hundred years. Whoever can obtain the title of Grand Duke and become a Great Honored Warrior in the future will have no doubt about it. "


    "Is this a Grand Preceptor?"


    Lin Qi bit out these two words with his teeth. What the old man didn''t notice was that a bright light flashed through his pupils.

 C146

    Qi Shi, Tian Shou, Tian Shou.


    This was the difference between the strength of a Heavenly Cauldron Monster and the strength of a monster.


    To tell the truth, a freak like Lin Xing who had just entered the Heavenly Cauldron could only be considered to be a Qi warrior.


    He knew clearly in his heart that every freak here was comparable to someone like Sheng Haoyin. They were far from something that Shen Shan and Yu You could compare to.


    He cleared his throat and slightly raised his head to look at the old man, saying, "Can you take me to explore the Heavenly Cauldron? Also, can you let me see the world?"


    Since old Feng Qi was able to enter the Heavenly Cauldron at the age of sixty, he must also be a highly intelligent and foolish person. He must have a lot of hidden skills, at the very least, it would be safer to stay by his side.


    "Hehe, this suggestion isn''t impossible either." The old man''s voice paused for a second, then he immediately blew his beard and glared: "But I''ve already said that as long as it''s something I see first, you can''t fight with me for it."


    Lin Qi was speechless. Fortunately, he did not finish his sentence and nodded in agreement.


    However, as soon as the old man''s voice fell, more whistling sounds rang out from the forest in the distance, and afterimages began to rush over from both the front and back.


    The old man was scared out of his wits, looking for a hole to burrow into. Seeing his actions, Lin Qi really wanted to give him a good kick on his butt, regretting his earlier suggestion.


    He was slightly surprised, but he immediately returned to normal. It seemed that these figures did not have any ill intentions towards him.


    In the blink of an eye, two young and beautiful women appeared in front of Lin Xing. Both of them had the appearance of a fish that had fallen from the sky, especially the girl with big eyes in front. Her pretty face seemed carved out of a piece of wood as she stared at Lin Xing with her big eyes shining with a strange light.


    At the same time, a group of people also appeared on his back. He turned around and hastily counted. There were about 12 people, all young men and women. Leading them was a young man with a serious expression on his face.


    The other people looked at them, and their expressions revealed obvious respect. If Lin Xing''s guess was right, then the two of them should be the so-called elites of Old Shangqi.


    "Hmph, scaring this old man. And here I thought it was some damned bastard coming to get revenge on me. So it''s your World Alliance group of juniors."


    The old man''s head was upside down, his eyes peeking out from his trousers, and when he saw the two groups of people who had just arrived, he let out a long breath and pointed at their noses, cursing loudly.


    "It''s you again, old thing." The wide-eyed woman stared at him, and the others shot hostile looks at him.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows. Looking at their expressions, it seemed that they really disliked this old man.


    Have I offended them in any way?


    However, thinking about it, with the old man''s personality, it was indeed very easy to offend others.


    The old man was taken aback, but seeing that they had so many people, he quickly pulled back his neck and moved behind Lin Xing.


    She blinked her eyes at Lin Qi and said with a smile, "It''s not too late to see me here. The first thing I sensed was a teleportation Qi, and I immediately rushed over here. It has been a long time since our Hall of the Abyssal Moon came to visit a newcomer. Congratulations, from today onwards, you are a member of our Hall of the Crescent Moon."


    The large-eyed woman said with a smile, but her tone of voice gave Lin Xing an irresistible feeling. To say that it was an invitation, it was more like an order.


    Master Meng Luo Yu, are you ignoring our Black Fish Palace? We discovered this rookie together. As for who he is going with, we still need to listen to his own opinion, right? "


    Behind Lin Xing, a pretty girl beside the handsome young man said in a cold voice.


    "Luo Yu, because our two halls are at the boundary, and your Dian Yue Palace is the weakest in terms of strength, in recent times, I have already asked five people to give you this. This time, even if I wanted to give this new disciple to you, do you think that the people from our Palace can agree? You should know that I have not much time left in the Sky Cauldron, and other than me, there are no other talented people in my hall. Once I leave, my hall will definitely be excluded by the other World Alliance, and even the other halls, so I need to increase the strength of the new person.


    The young man Chen Yi had changed from his usual expression. His face was stern and his voice was sonorous. He was determined to win against Lin Qi.


    "What a loyal Wang Yu. Even if he leaves the Heavenly Cauldron, he still has to deal with the rest of the matters behind him. His heart is thinking about the Black Fish Palace, and I, Luo Yu, admire him for that."


    "But let me tell you, my feelings for the palace will only be higher than yours. Since you know that my hall is the weakest in the World Alliance, then you should know that my hall has already reached the point where we can''t receive new blood. If we don''t get fresh blood, then perhaps one of the seven branch halls of the World Alliance will be missing."


    "Who can we blame? We can only blame you for not managing the operation properly and for not being able to keep people around." The beautiful woman beside the handsome young man sneered.


    "Ah, everyone is well aware of my origins. Do you believe that once I rise to the top, the other World Alliance will have countless heroes, and even Tianshou will be willing to follow behind me. It''s just that I don''t want to do this, so there''s no need to mock me." Meng Luo Yu said coldly.


    Yes, the leader of World Alliance personally invited Sister Luo Yu, and also said that as long as Sister Luo Yu came, she would give her a high position as the deputy chief of the Alliance. If it wasn''t for the fact that she had a deep relationship with the Palace, she would have given up on this a long time ago. The girl beside Meng Luo Yu said.


    Wang Yu''s expression was somewhat heavy, he was visibly moved. He had heard of Meng Luo Yu''s background, otherwise he wouldn''t have allowed her to do as she pleased.


    However, the deadline was approaching, and he was about to leave the Heavenly Cauldron. This time, he would not choose to give in.


    "Luo Yu, I can promise you anything else, but I can''t say anything about it this time. My Black Fish Palace will definitely accept this new person." he growled under his breath.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi''s complexion turned pale. He felt honored, disappointed, and conflicted.


    He was honored that he was so popular. The moment he arrived at the Heavenly Cauldron, the faces of the two groups of people turned red.


    What made him disappointed was that these two groups of people had been competing for half a day without considering his feelings, much less asking for his opinion. This was clearly disregarding him.


    "Let him decide which hall he wants to go to. How about that?" Meng Luo Yu said.


    This was also like a personal speech. Lin Qi finally felt a bit of comfort in his heart. However, he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with his new life. With just a few words, it was difficult for him to make this important decision.


    Once he decided on who to go with, he would definitely offend another group of people. These were all Heavenly Cauldron freaks, and none of them were weaker than him. Therefore, he had to be extremely careful.

 C147

    He lowered his head to ponder over the matter. He happened to glance at the vulgar face of the old man, so he came up with an idea. He decided to leave this difficult problem to the old man.


    "Old mister, I have just arrived and do not know much about the Heavenly Cauldron. Why don''t you help me make a decision?" Lin Qi turned around with a respectful expression and said to old Feng Qi with a troubled expression.


    Hearing this, the old man''s face immediately fell. He was afraid for a long time, but he could not utter a single word. He also had a troubled expression on his face, not knowing what to make of this decision.


    "This... "This one."


    Lin Xing snickered in his heart. Old Cangqi was also troubled, as if he was very afraid of offending members of the World Alliance.


    "Old thing, you help him make his decision. If he''s willing to come to my Dian Yue Palace, after that, I''m willing to give you an immortal medicine to repay you." Meng Luo Yu said.


    "I can offer two immortal medicines." Wang Yu gently said.


    The old man''s strange immortal qi was very interested in immortal medicines. Not only that, but with his greedy personality, he was actually unable to agree to them all at once. His entire face darkened as he fell into a dilemma.


    He did not expect that a new person would be so valuable to this group of people. One must know that the Heavenly Cauldron was different from the Ascending Heavens; this place was filled with strange creatures that had gathered from all over the world.


    He was taken aback for a moment. He looked at the old man and said, "Old mister, please tell me about the powers of the World Alliance and the Heavenly Cauldron. Let me decide for myself."


    "Alright, then I''ll have a good talk with you." The old man''s face revealed a hint of happiness, but he didn''t forget to look at Lin Qi grudgingly.


    Afterwards, he slowly said, "In fact, the Heavenly Cauldron is no different from the place we live in. There are all sorts of powers that occupy a region and occupy a large amount of cultivation resources, and the Heavenly Cauldron is no exception. All of the cultivation resources are monopolized by the twelve World Alliance, and those who enter the Heavenly Cauldron must join a World Alliance. Although everyone could only train here for three months, the World Alliance could still pass on their legacy from generation to generation. There were also many branch halls under the World Alliance, such as the Battling Heavens brotherhood, which consisted of seven branch halls. The World Alliance has existed for seven hundred years. I don''t really understand much about their branch halls, but from their conversation just now, you should be able to hear a thing or two. "


    Before I came to the Heavenly Cauldron, he had repeatedly instructed me to join the Battle Alliance as well. He had a deep attachment to the Battle Alliance, and there are some of the more ancient alliances, which are even more exaggerated than this, which are monopolized by some large sect on the surface. Anyone who enters the Heavenly Cauldron can join a designated alliance. In order to win Lin Xing''s favor, Wang Yu also explained the situation.


    "So that''s how it is." Lin Qi nodded, as if he understood something, and fell into deep thought.


    "Have you decided?" Meng Luo Yu asked impatiently.


    As for Wang Yu, he calmly waited for Lin Xing to reply.


    Just as Lin Xing was at a loss as to what to do, another whistling sound came from the forest, attracting everyone''s attention.


    "Haha, since you are unable to make a decision, then don''t. Why don''t you come to the Green Thunder Palace of my Xing Wu World Alliance?"


    A youth appeared out of nowhere in the distance, standing on a tree branch as he looked down from above.


    His face was grave and stern, and his skin was covered with a red glow. It was the same person who had chased after him not long ago.


    "Who is he?" Lin Qi did not reveal any expression of fear as he asked in confusion.


    "He is the number one follower of one of the Three Great Leaders of the Star Dance World Alliance, the demonic beast. At the same time, he is also the hall master of the Green Thunder Palace of the Star Dance World Alliance, Goat''s Tongue." Meng Luo Yu explained to him.


    Meng Luo Yu then looked at the letter coldly and said, "Sheep''s Nest, this is Zhan Tian''s territory. What are you doing here?"


    "Brother Sheep House, there''s nothing else. Please leave as soon as possible. This is Zhan Tian''s family matter, so there''s no need for outsiders to interfere." Wang Yu still seemed to be acquainted with the goattongue letter as he coldly spoke.


    It was just as he''d said. After all, this was Zhan Tian''s family matter. How could he allow others to interfere?


    "With Zhan Tian''s lousy territory, if it weren''t for the two traitors being hunted down, you wouldn''t even have come even if you begged me while kneeling. However, since I met him, I naturally would have fought over him." The Goat''s Tongue was very arrogant. He didn''t even put the World Alliance in his eyes at all.


    When those words were spoken, everyone immediately became gloomy like water. Their gazes towards him seemed as if they could spit out flames.


    At this moment, Old Ceng Qi suddenly came close to Lin Qi''s ear and whispered to him, "Battling Heavens brotherhood is a troublesome affair, I don''t recommend you join them. Why don''t you join the Star Dance Alliance with the Sheep''s Note? The three giants of the Star Dance are all Heavenly Hunters. You''ll be able to get protection if you go."


    Lin Xing was stunned, why would this old man kindly remind him of this? Was there anything that was hard to say?


    In fact, the Star Dance World Alliance was the only organisation that Elder Feng Qi had never offended.


    "What did you say?"


    Although the old man''s voice was low and inaudible, it was still heard by those Heavenly Cauldron freaks. Meng Luo Yu instantly became furious and glared at him with cold eyes. She wanted to eat him alive, and was even more hateful than a sheep''s tongue.


    "Haha, although I don''t like this old thing, his words today were indeed pleasing to the ears. So it turns out that you aren''t as hateful as the rumors say. Kid, how is it? Will you come with me? I''ll only give you three seconds to think about it. If you miss out on this village, you won''t have this shop. " Sheeptongue said in an overweeningly confident manner.


    At the same time, everyone from Battling Heavens brotherhood shot a strange look at Lin Xing, imploring him to do so. If Lin Xing decided to follow Zhan Tian, not only would they lose their reputation, but they would also follow others.


    "I''ll go with you."


    Lin Qi struggled for a while before suddenly raising his head to look at Meng Luo Yu, then took two steps towards her.


    "Really?"


    The goatee almost thought that he had heard wrongly, and his expression was clearly startled. When he saw Lin Qi''s actions again, his expression immediately darkened.


    "Seriously." Lin Qi did not look at him, only resolutely spitting out these two words.


    "Hmph." He gave a cold snort, coldly glanced at Lin Qi, then turned around and left.


    "Hey, don''t go. I''ll go back with you." The old man jumped up and shouted at the goat-tongued letter.


    "Scram ¡­" In the distance, the figure of the goat-tongued letter had already disappeared. The word had been tossed out from there.


    The old man''s expression changed, he bitterly lowered his head and sighed while sitting on the ground.


    Seeing this action, Lin Xing really wanted to give him a good beating. It turned out that all of this was due to his selfishness.


    "I hope you take care of yourself. The beast tide is about to arrive, and when it comes time to attack, our Black Fish Palace will definitely not send reinforcements."


    Although Lin Qi wasn''t dragged away by the goat-tongued messenger, he still didn''t return to the Black Fish Palace. Wang Yu''s expression immediately turned ugly. After throwing out those words, he led the group of people behind him away without looking back.

 C148

    "Thank you!" Meng Luo Yu walked up, her eyes exuding a gentle color, and said to Lin Xing Zhen sincerely.


    Lin Qi suddenly felt very flattered. The corners of his mouth slightly raised as he joked, "No need to thank me, I''ll follow you from now on."


    Puchi ¡­


    When the two girls heard this, they couldn''t help but laugh.


    "Oh right, what line are you cultivating? Return to the city so that I can arrange a place for you to stay. Try to arrange a place for you to stay with friends of the same path so that you can communicate with each other." Meng Luo Yu asked with a smile.


    Lin Qi thought for a moment before replying at a leisurely pace, "Major in hiding, minor cultivation of the divine power."


    After all, if this matter were to be exposed, he believed that even if the Heavenly Cauldron was exposed, it would still cause a sensation.


    "Hidden Heavens ¡­"


    Meng Luo Yu''s and the girl beside her immediately lit up, while the old man, San Qi, who was sitting on the ground also raised his head and stared at Shi Yan.


    The Hidden Sky Sect had only existed for eight hundred years, and the Hidden Sky Sect was very rare even in the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "What a coincidence, our palace has three hidden talents. At that time, I will arrange for you to stay next to them so that we can communicate with each other." Meng Luo Yu''s face was full of smiles. Her large eyes were staring at Lin Xing, as if she was also surprised by the novelty.


    Due to the fact that the Hidden Sky Sect was relatively mysterious and had extremely profound techniques, many of the Hidden Sky users had made a name for themselves in the Heavenly Cauldron. As a result, no one dared to look down on the Hidden Sky Sect.


    If Wang Yu found out that Lin Xing was cultivating the Hidden Heaven Path, he wouldn''t give up so easily, no matter what he said just now.


    Lin Qi was slightly moved. Just now, he had said that he cultivated hiding the sky, and it was mainly because he wanted to give it a try.


    Ever since he started cultivating, he had only met one hidden expert, Xuan Ze, and he didn''t interact much with him. Furthermore, the Hidden Heaven Technique was extremely profound, so he really needed to communicate with his peers.


    "Let this old gentleman return with us." Lin Qi looked at the old man sitting on the ground, then looked at Meng Luo Yu.


    The old man''s face revealed an obvious joy. He quickly stood up from the ground, intentionally releasing his immortal energy, and puffed up his chest in front of Meng Luo Yu. He really did have the feeling of an otherworldly expert.


    If he didn''t know his personality, Lin Xing would have believed him already.


    Besides, Meng Luo Yu was also clear about his past, so she rejected him decisively: "No, do you know this person''s past? If you pull you to our hall, you will bring the entire place along with you. "


    Lin Xing was stunned, he scratched his head and asked, "What has happened to him before?"


    This time, the woman beside Meng Luo Yu explained to him, "This old thing came to the Heavenly Cauldron two months ago and has already visited seven World Alliance. Who would want a villain like him? The most shameful thing is that he often has women chased after him every now and then. Now, it can be said that he has enemies everywhere in the Heavenly Cauldron and his reputation is even louder than the three giants of Xing Wu. "


    As the woman spoke, she would occasionally look at the old man with disgust, revealing all of his scars. Her tone wasn''t the least bit polite either.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi felt his head go blank. He could not help but curse a few times.


    "How about this, let him stay by my side, but he won''t join the Dian Yue Palace." He also had a selfish intention in speaking up for the elder. He always felt that this person''s words and actions were a bit strange, perhaps he could tell him some unknown things.


    "No." Meng Luo Yu still refused. There was no room for discussion.


    Meng Luo Yu''s attitude was very unyielding, she repeatedly refused, making Old Cangqi unable to keep his face straight. He immediately became furious, and snorted, "What do you think is so great about your You Yue Palace? You want me to go, but I''m not willing to go."


    "Humph, if you have nothing else, then please leave. The Warring Heaven Alliance does not welcome you." Meng Luo Yu hated traitors, not to mention the fact that this old man had switched to seven other World Alliance members in a row.


    "Master Meng Luo Yu, if he leaves, I will leave too." Lin Xing said in a deep voice.


    "What, are you crazy? Is this old thing worth it for you to be like this? "


    Meng Luo Yu''s face suddenly became gloomy, the woman beside her said with a flustered face.


    Even Old Feng Qi was moved. He walked over and tugged on Lin Qi''s arm, gesturing for him to stop caring about a useless person.


    Lin Xing remained unmoved. His expression was very decisive.


    The atmosphere froze, and after a while, Meng Luo Yu sighed, "Fine, I promise you, we''ll let him stay by your side. But my temple is too small, so I can''t become this great deity. He can''t enter my palace."


    "Thank you." This time, it was Lin Xing who actually thanked her.


    "Follow me back."


    As soon as he finished his sentence, Meng Luo Yu started walking towards a direction with the woman following closely behind her. Lin Xing and Old Shangqi looked at each other and chased after her.


    Along the way, Meng Luo Yu gave Lin Xing a hand order with the word "Month" engraved on it. She also told him that with this order, at least in the whole Alliance, the area would be unobstructed.


    Lin Xing then asked her about some matters related to the World Alliance, and she was not stingy with her words.


    The size of their forces had always been around six hundred or so. As for the various major branch halls, their strength was also different, and the Discarded Moon Palace was the weakest among them, having only fifty-three people. This was only including Lin Xing''s situation.


    "Old mister just said that the World Conqueror Alliance has been a troublesome matter recently. Can the Hall Master explain to me what is going on?"


    Lin Xing recalled the words that Old Monarch had said to him earlier. Since he dared to say it out in front of so many Heaven Fighting elites, it meant that these words were definitely not empty words.


    Hearing this, Meng Luo Yu suddenly stopped. She turned around and looked at old man Yan Qi, then stared at Lin Qi for a while. Then, she turned around and continued walking forward.


    At the same time, he said to Lin Xing, "This can''t be considered a secret. You''ll find out sooner or later because this is the sorrow of Zhan Tian. Not long ago, our Demonic Spirit Hall''s Hall Master Chu Jin, together with the one hundred and eighty-two Qi warriors and two elites from the Demonic Spirit Hall, betrayed us.


    "Self-established sect?" Lin Xing was slightly startled, this person''s ambition was truly not small.


    However, he wants to establish his own clan and stand shoulder to shoulder with the Twelve World Alliance, so it is still impossible. I heard that Chu Jin obtained the support of the Black Tortoise World Alliance, otherwise, he would not dare to betray us. It''s been three months since Chu Jin betrayed our Demon Spirit City, so our chief has yet to send anyone to take back that Demon Spirit City. The city within the Heavenly Cauldron is more important than any other resources, and we can take anyone with him, but we definitely can''t take over Zhan Tian''s city. Meng Luo Yu said word by word.

 C149

    "Why does the city play such an important role in the Heavenly Cauldron?" Lin Xing asked in confusion.


    Meng Luo Yu''s face changed, and said with a trembling voice, "Because of the demon beast horde, it won''t be long before you know."


    Since she didn''t want to say it, there was no need for Lin Xing to continue asking. He shut his mouth and followed behind her.


    Before long, they arrived outside of a city. The city was mottled with rust, and as they got closer, their auras became increasingly thick and filled with an endless ancient aura.


    Lin Qi stared at the colossal creature in front of him, his face filled with shock. If he had guessed correctly, this colossal city in front of him should have been left behind since the Primordial Era.


    Meng Luo Yu, the woman, and the old man beside her, on the other hand, didn''t change their expressions at all. They continued to lead Lin Xing into the city.


    "This is the Moon''s Edge City. Seven hundred years ago, an ancestor of the Warring Heaven Alliance occupied this city and changed its name to Moon''s City. He established this branch of ours here." Meng Luo Yu explained.


    Lin Qi thoughtfully nodded his head. As he walked into the city, he saw more than a dozen figures.


    Seeing Meng Luo Yu come back, they all went up to greet her.


    "Hallmaster, you''ve brought a newcomer back. He''s just a newcomer, there''s no need for you to go. Just let me go." A girl walked up and said to Meng Luo Yu.


    Although these were the words spoken, their gazes were still filled with enthusiasm as they gazed at Lin Xing. Currently, the Hall of Argent was in dire need of fresh blood.


    Lin Qi sized up the group of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters. At first, he was fine, but his gaze suddenly stopped at a single person. He then felt as if his heart was struck by raging waves.


    The person he was looking at was a child who was about seven or eight years old. His voice was soft and gentle, and he had a porcelain doll face that people couldn''t help but want to pinch.


    When Lin Qi saw this child, his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. What kind of monster was this tiny Heavenly Cauldron Monster?


    "What, you were shocked by this little fellow?" I heard that there''s a two year old monster in the Black Tortoise Alliance. " Meng Luo Yu walked over and pinched the child''s cheek, then turned around and smiled at Lin Qi.


    "Ugh ¡­" Lin Qi was numb. Other than being speechless, there was nothing else he could say.


    Humph, there''s actually someone younger than me in the Heavenly Cauldron. Let''s see when I won''t go to the Black Tortoise Alliance and trample over him. The child brandished his fists, and his small face that was like a porcelain doll rolled up as he spoke in an extremely domineering manner.


    Lin Qi could not take it anymore. This was too much of a blow to him.


    Meng Luo Yu then took her hand away from the child, and ordered the beautiful woman beside him: "Take this newbie to where the Hidden Lord lives, and find a room for him."


    "Yes, Palace Lord." The beautiful woman replied with a smile.


    "From now on, you are a member of my palace. Rest in peace for now, and every five days I will send someone to bring ten spirit crystals to your residence. If there''s anything you don''t understand, you can ask Tan Zhen." Meng Luo Yu said to Lin Xing.


    "Spirit crystal?" Lin Qi was stunned for a moment.


    "Hehe, the Spirit Crystals in this Heavenly Cauldron are not ordinary Spirit Crystals. They are all of the highest quality and the Spiritual Energy contained within them is even more useful to us than divine powers or celestial spiritual energy." The lady called Tan Cheng explained with a smile.


    Lin Qi replied with an "Oh" and did not continue asking. As for how useful it was, he would know in five days.


    "Alright, follow me. I''ll take you to find a place to stay. I''ll settle you down first." Tan Cheng walked towards the depths of the city with large strides.


    Lin Qi and Old Shangqi also followed him naturally.


    The buildings inside the city were rather ancient, and most of them emitted an ancient aura. They were mottled with rust, but the construction was very regular.


    As he walked, Lin Xing saw a few young men scattered around. When he saw Tan pure, he nodded and smiled. Some people even smiled at Lin Xing, treating him as a simple form of courtesy.


    Not long after, Tan Chun brought Lin Xing and Old Feng Qi to a row of stone houses in an alley. The houses seemed to be made of piles of boulders and were filled with cracks. They were also very old.


    "No one lives in these two rooms, the two of you stay here for now. If you need anything, come find me. If you can''t find me, then ask someone." Tan Jie pointed at the two stone houses in front of them.


    Lin Qi nodded his head as he looked around.


    "Also, since you''re the one who brought the person here, you have the responsibility to look favorably upon this old fogey. He doesn''t have the orders from my World Alliance, so if anything happens here, my hall won''t be responsible." Tan Chun looked at old Feng Qi with cold eyes, and said sternly towards Lin Xing.


    "Got it, I will take responsibility for the people I brought with me." Lin Qi answered seriously.


    "That''s good. I have a plan in mind." Tan Cheng nodded his head in satisfaction. The latter part of his words seemed to be hinting at Lin Qi. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left.


    Lin Qi turned around and said to that wretched face, "You old fart, you can stay in the room next to mine. You heard what that woman said. If you were to be mistakenly killed by the Qi Scholar from the Mt. Everlasting Palace, they would not be responsible."


    "Humph, you little fellow, you seem to have a good eye, but why are you so blind? Come, tell me, with this old man''s strength, who can kill me with this Sky Cauldron?" The old man''s face was filled with displeasure as he roared in anger.


    Hearing him boast, Lin Xing felt a headache coming on. He could not be bothered with him and pushed open the stone door.


    "Sigh. "However, little brother, thank you so much this time. The beast tide is about to arrive. Without the protection of the city, this old man''s old bones will really fall apart." Old Cangqi pulled Lin Qi''s arm and said in a very euphemistic tone.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing''s heart chilled. He turned around and stared into the old man''s eyes as he asked, "Beast tide, what kind of beast tide?"


    After hearing the word "beast tide" twice, Lin Qi couldn''t help but be surprised in his heart.


    As soon as the word "beast wave" came out of his mouth, Lin Qi saw that old man''s face had changed drastically, becoming the color of a pig''s liver. In addition, more or less, fear was revealed in his eyes.


    "Don''t ask, you''ll know after a while." The old man did not answer Lin Xing''s question. Instead, he pushed open the stone door in front of him, entered the room in a sorry state, and heavily closed the door behind him.


    Lin Qi was helpless, but he secretly remembered the word "Beast Upheaval" in his heart. He remembered that when Meng Luo Yu said those two words, her face was filled with fear.


    A monster tide that could cause so many Heavenly Cauldron Monsters to be afraid of it must be something extremely dangerous.

 C150

    On the walls on both sides of the room, there were two Night Pearls hung there, emitting a gentle blue light. The furnishings were very simple: a stone bed, a stone table, and three stone stools.


    There was a layer of bedding on the bed, emitting a light fragrance. Evidently, there was a woman who stayed here for a short while not too long ago. She didn''t even have the time to clean up the bedding, which "benefited" Lin Xing.


    The deadline for each freak to enter the Heavenly Cauldron was three months. Every day, new people would enter, and every day, old people would be sent out. They were in a hurry and no one knew who the owner of the house was.


    What was left in his heart was only an unforgettable memory.


    Lin Qi found a golden jade pendant under his pillow. The pendant was suffused with a golden luster and was faintly surrounded by immortal energy. The word "emperor" was engraved on the pendant. From this, it could be determined that the previous owner of the house was a fairy.


    He also discovered that this jade pendant was obviously a pair, and the one in his hand was only half. He pondered for a long time, then casually threw the jade pendant into his soul cave.


    Regardless of whether this jade pendant was important to the goddess, meeting her was fate.


    However, Lin Xing''s thoughts were a bit whimsical. The world was vast, and a great land would have a million miles of land, let alone those ancient sects? Within the vast sea of people, it was impossible to meet the owner of this jade pendant.


    He also had a playful mindset, so he treated it as picking up a small accessory.


    Bang Bang...


    Just as Lin Qi was about to lie down on the bed to rest, he heard the sound of a door being smashed outside. The door was very thick, so if the strength was too small, no one in the room would be able to hear it.


    "Come in." Lin Xing furrowed his brows, tidying up his clothes before sitting down on a stone stool.


    In the next moment, the stone door was pushed open, and with the help of the blue light from the Night Pearl, he could clearly see that the person that walked in was a handsome and dignified young man.


    "I am Mo Zi Shi, sorry to bother you." A handsome man walked in and cupped his fists towards Lin Qi.


    Staring at the handsome man before him, Lin Xing smiled and gestured, "I am Lin Qi. Brother Mo, please take a seat."


    After a long time, he smiled and said, "I heard from Miss Tan that another new disciple has arrived from our palace, and one of them is a hidden genius at that. At first, I didn''t believe it, but now I see that Brother Lin really practices the Hidden Heaven Meridian."


    "Brother Mo, could you also be from the sky?" Lin Xing was overjoyed.


    "Yes, I come from the Rebirth Sect, I practice the ''One Heavenly Hidden Art'', and I view the Great Master Cang Tian as my idol. I have always carried out the last wishes of the Great Honored Warrior to practice the ''Sky Concealment Technique'', but my ''Sky Concealment Sect'' has only been established eight hundred years ago, and is extremely weak in the six meridians, and I also have very few cultivators. After I entered the Heavenly Cauldron, I only met twenty-three Sky Concealers. This is truly a pity for me." Mo Zi Shi spoke calmly with a happy expression on his face.


    Lin Xing was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully, "The Rebirth Sect?"


    "Hmm? Brother Lin, you are also a Hidden Sky Sect disciple, don''t you know about the Hidden Sky Sect? "


    When Lin Xing asked this question, Mo Zi Shi was obviously shocked as well. Normally speaking, most of the Hidden Sky Cultivators were from these seven big Sects. Even if they were from other small Sects, they should have heard of their names.


    Lin Qi smiled bitterly for a while, then said embarrassedly, "Brother Mo, to be honest, I, this'' hidden ''Sky Spell was given to me by a senior, and I live in an extremely remote place, so I''m not familiar with many things."


    "So that''s how it is." Mo Zi Shi suddenly cupped his fists towards Lin Xing again, his face showing gratitude as he praised, "If that''s the case, then Brother Lin can abandon his sect and specialize in training our Hidden Heaven Faction. I''m truly impressed. Zi Shi, thank you on behalf of all Hidden Heaven Faction in this world."


    Lin Qi gave a bitter smile, but didn''t say anything. Mo Zi Shi''s tone made him speechless, it was just too exaggerated.


    However, it could also be seen that he really loved to hide his talent in the Heaven''s Path. He treated everyone who hid themselves as his soulmates.


    "Brother Mo, why don''t you introduce the seven Hidden Sky Sects to me at this time? This way, I can broaden my horizons and witness the glory of our Hidden Sky Sect." Lin Xing said with a smile.


    Hearing this, Mo Zishan was even more agitated, he couldn''t help but puke on Lin Qi''s face right after he said that word, not even a little bit of the previous handsome man''s chastity.


    He awkwardly smiled and said, "Brother Lin, I''m really sorry. I was too excited."


    Lin Qi wiped the saliva off his face and waved his hand, signaling him to continue.


    After the Great Honored Warrior created the Hidden Heaven Technique, he personally created seven sects. These seven sects are known as the Seven Hidden Sky Sects, they are also regarded as the orthodox sects in the hidden heaven and earth, and are sacred grounds in the hearts of all the hidden heaven''s masters. Although there were people who started the Hidden Heaven Sect, none of them were able to take over the positions of the seven sects, and most of the smaller sects are attached to the seven sects. He finally finished introducing the stone, then stared at Lin Xing, waiting for his praise.


    Lin Xing gave a sincere thumbs up and said, "One day, I will definitely go to the seven sects and obtain their scriptures. I will contribute a tiny bit of my power and expand the scope of my ''Sky Concealment Technique''."


    "Brother Lin, this is a good idea. No one among the 23 ''hidden'' individuals that I saw in the Heavenly Cauldron had said these words. Brother Lin, you are truly a close friend of mine." I have a skill called the ''Sky Concealment Technique''. If Brother Lin does not mind, I will use it to cultivate it. " Mo Zi Shi was so excited that he couldn''t even pull himself out, wishing he could hug Lin Qi in his arms.


    "Ugh ¡­"


    Lin Qi was emotionally moved. He did not think that this handsome man would be so generous. His first move was the Hidden Heaven Technique, and this was also what Lin Xing needed the most.


    In the golden mace, he had obtained the Dao of the Hidden Sky Sect, not the Art. The Sky Concealment Technique that he had previously used was developed from that Dao, but it could not be considered a Art because it did not have a complete and profound technique, and his attack was also very ordinary. If he were to fight with an expert, it would be very difficult for him to effectively unleash it.


    "Hmm? Brother Lin, do you think it''s not enough? I still have half a month before I leave the Sky Cauldron. Brother Lin, why don''t you take it and give it a try? If it is not suitable for Brother Lin to cultivate, I will help you change it before I leave. " Mo Zi Shi frowned and said.


    "No, no, no." Lin Qi quickly shook his head and said, "That''s good enough. As for whether it''s suitable or not, I think I''ll be fine with it."


    "Fine." Mo Zishi pursed his lips and nodded, after which, a golden spell symbol flew out of his palm and flew into Lin Qi''s mind.


    After the rune entered his mind, Lin Qi closed his eyes and observed it for a while. He could not help but feel ecstatic.


    If his guess was correct, then this technique should be a secret and only the head disciple had the right to learn it.

 C151

    A single drop of water was enough to repay a favor, not to mention such a great benefit to him.


    Immediately, Lin Xing cupped his fists towards Mo Zishan, and said with an incomparably serious tone, "Brother Mo, I will remember this kindness. If you have any orders, I will do my best."


    "Brother Lin''s words are foreign. You and I are both heaven hiding beings, so we should help each other." Mo Zi Shi said with a smile.


    "Brother Mo, you''re right. Could it be that brother Mo has something he needs my help with?" Lin Qi''s eyes suddenly narrowed, and his tone changed.


    He said, "It''s not helping me. I have a few people on my side who are willing to take me to the minefield to find opportunities. Today, Brother Lin and I have a good encounter, how could I not pull Brother Lin over to our side?"


    "Brother Mo, thank you for your kind intentions. You won''t forget me for such a good deed." "I can''t disappoint you, brother Mo. You just have to say hello to me when you''re leaving." Brother Lin burst into laughter.


    Mo Zishan stood up, patting Lin Qi on the shoulder, laughing out loud, "Brother Lin is straightforward, I have an appointment with them to set off tomorrow, and tomorrow morning I will come to call for you, so let''s do it this way then. Today, I will not disturb Brother Lin''s rest, and if you have any questions about the Samsara Heart Technique, you can come and ask me.


    "Of course."


    Lin Qi saw Mo Zi Shi out respectfully, then shut the door heavily behind him. His body flashed across the air, and he sat down on the bed with his legs crossed.


    At this moment, he no longer had any sleepiness and could not wait to cultivate that Reincarnation Heart Technique.


    However, in his heart, there was an extra thought. As the saying goes, one must be on guard against people, and the warmth of Mo Zishan was unbearable to him. Whether it was true or false passion, he had to be on guard to prevent him from tampering with the Reincarnation Heart Technique.


    However, after cultivating for a while, Lin Xing felt that he had been worrying too much. He followed the cultivation method of the Samsara Heart Technique, and his body did not feel anything strange at all.


    Immediately, he immersed his entire mind into the Reincarnation Heart Technique and entered into a mental world that he had created.


    Lin Qi closed his eyes. As he operated the Rebirth Heart Technique, a scene appeared in his mind. His mind was completely immersed in it.


    The impact of the image was extremely intense, causing him to feel as though he was in the middle of a dream. It was extremely realistic as he stepped on the ice-cold ground, taking one step at a time.


    After taking three steps, his body suddenly changed. His body was shrinking rapidly, and his facial features instantly turned into the face of a child. Familiar faces also appeared all around him. At this moment, he felt as if he had returned to his childhood.


    Lin Xing knew that this was an illusion created by the Samsara Heart Technique, so he did not panic. Instead, he calmly stepped forward.


    Familiar faces appeared in his vision. Although it was an illusion, the feeling it gave him was very real. It made him reveal his emotions and look very sad.


    He saw his father when he was young, and he saw his own father waving his fist in the air under his father''s strict supervision. He also saw himself from a third angle.


    He shook his head, his mind trembling for a while. Then, he stopped looking at those scenes and started to think about those memories as if they were just passing clouds.


    As he walked further away, the steps he took grew larger and larger. His height was growing rapidly, and his facial features were changing as well. Before long, he had returned to his original appearance.


    However, it was only then that Lin Xing realized that this was only the beginning.


    The Lin Qi in the illusion was not as lucky as he was in reality. He did not obtain the golden mace, nor did he choose to cultivate anew. After giving up on himself, he chose to be an ordinary mortal.


    Under the protection of Lin Shen, Lin Xing was safe and sound even before he was 30 years old. He had been hiding in the Azure Silver Country the entire time, but during this year, Lin Shen had died in battle, his eight elephants had fallen, and because of that, Lin Xing had become a stray dog.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Seeing the fictional scenes around him, Lin Qi also aged until he was 33 years old. When he stopped, he suddenly stopped and let out a loud roar.


    Lin Qi was stunned. He looked at the surroundings and realized that they had completely disappeared. The surroundings were completely empty. He wiped the cold sweat from his face with a face full of fear.


    Just now, when he had reached the end of his life, a feeling of despair filled his mind. It was so real, as if he had just died once.


    He calmed himself down and vigorously shook his heavy head. Feeling somewhat at a loss, he stared in front of him and took another step forward.


    As he took this step, his body rapidly changed, and the images of his childhood appeared around him once more.


    "Freshness and Destruction... Is this Samsara? "


    Lin Qi seemed to have realized something and the blankness on his face disappeared. Immediately, he quickened his pace.


    His fate this time was slightly different from the previous one. The first eighteen years had not changed, but three years after Lin Xing recuperated, he had once again stepped into the sky level. However, just as he was undergoing his tribulation, a heavenly tribulation descended from the heavens, instantly burning him to ashes.


    "This... "Is this the destiny that the heavens have arranged for me?"


    Lin Qi was stunned. His mind had suffered a huge blow. The power seemed to have come from some unknown source, ethereal and real at the same time.


    The ''Hidden Heavens'' focused on comprehending the laws of the universe, and the ''Sky Concealment Technique'' was also closest to the ''Heavenly Trail''. Although these were all illusions, Lin Xing still believed that if he hadn''t encountered the trump card ''left behind by the'' Sky Sovereign ''then perhaps his fate would have ended like this.


    Or being a mortal, ending a dying breath at the age of thirty.


    They could either cultivate anew, then return to the Heaven Calamity, and then be killed by the shock of the heavenly tribulation.


    There were many possibilities in his life, but in the end, there were only these two outcomes.


    Because this was fate!


    "You''ve gone too far. Even if the heavens wanted to kill me, it wouldn''t be that easy."


    Lin Xing clenched his fists so tightly that they were harder than steel. Five different kinds of powers simultaneously surged out from his body. His aura was incomparably astonishing.


    Then, he withdrew his strength and let out a long breath. His face revealed an unswerving determination as he continued to walk forward.


    "Twenty three times, twenty-three different lives, but there are only two outcomes. Haha, I''ve advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage, and successfully avoided the calamity of the heavens, can you be considered to have passed the first stage? Just you wait, I will definitely put the Heavenly Rail Palm in my hand, and I will personally destroy the Heavenly Rail that will arrange my fate. "


    He didn''t sleep for the entire night. When the sun shined brightly in the sky, Lin Xing''s mind left the illusion created by the Samsara Heart Technique and returned to reality.


    Recalling the twenty-three different lives he had experienced last night, two of which had the same ending, he laughed a little maniacally.


    Only after a long time had passed did his expression gradually become calm. When he heard the sound of the door being knocked on outside, he immediately withdrew his cold gaze.

 C152

    Opening the door, the person who came was the Sable Stone. A faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth as the spring breeze caressed his face, causing Lin Xing to have a good impression of him.


    "Brother Lin, did you rest well last night?" The mink stone stood at the door. When it saw Lin Xing walk out of the room, its face was bright and clear.


    Lin Qi did not bat an eyelid and replied with a smile: "It''s quite alright. Brother Marten, shall we set off now?"


    "That''s right. It looks like we are going to be late. They are already waiting for us at the city gate." Sable stone said.


    Lin Xing nodded his head and said, "Then we should also hurry up and go."


    Just as he finished his flowery voice, he saw the small marten stone walking forward and he quickly followed. When he passed by the entrance of the stone house where old Fang Qi lived, he knocked heavily on the stone door twice with his fist.


    At the same time, he shouted into the house, "I''m going out. While I''m not here, you should behave yourself. I don''t want to see only a corpse when I return."


    "Humph!"


    Only a cold snort came from the room, filled with disdain.


    Lin Qi gave a noncommittal smile as he swiftly caught up with the marten stone.


    The mink stone was well-connected with the people of the Vault Moon Hall. Everyone who saw him greeted him courteously, and some of them even smiled towards Lin Xing.


    After a while, the two of them left the city gate. Three figures stood at the city gate, waiting for them to arrive.


    The three figures were two women and a man. One of the men and one of the woman''s movements were more intimate. They were all young men and women.


    "Brother Marten, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Why have you only come now?"


    The person speaking was a young man with a crown on his head. His appearance was dignified and his entire body was faintly flowing with electricity. If one were to listen attentively, one would even be able to hear the sound of wind and rain.


    This was also the first time Lin Qi had met a Heavenly Origin Stage cultivator. His heart trembled and he couldn''t help but secretly size up the youth.


    "Zi Shi, you''re here." As for the woman who had been isolated earlier, she walked over to the Sable Stone and spoke in a gentle manner.


    The woman had a beautiful appearance, at least a bit more beautiful than Xun Jue. There was a faint sword qi stirring around her; clearly she was a sword immortal.


    "Kunyun, as well as Brother Gao and Miss Qu, I''ve made you two wait for a long time. I''m truly sorry." The small marten looked at the two girls and the man, and said with a bit of shame.


    Lin noticed that when he looked at the woman named Kunyun, his eyes were filled with tenderness and care.


    At the same time, the corner of Kun Yun''s eyes landed on Lin Qi, and an expression of surprise flashed across his face. He asked the mink stone: "Zi Shi, didn''t you say that only the four of us will go? Why did you bring a new person here? "


    At the same time, a man and a woman beside him also shot Lin Qi a displeased look. Their intention was clear, they didn''t want to welcome him.


    Sable also sensed the sudden awkward atmosphere and immediately said, "He is Lin Xing. Yesterday, he had just joined our Fuyue Hall and trained to be a Hidden Heaven Faction. Brother Lin and I were on good terms so I pulled him over on our own."


    "Hidden Lord ¡­"


    The three of them were astonished.


    "However, Brother Marten, the lightning position is one of the sixteen great forbidden grounds of the Heavenly Cauldron. It is not an ordinary place and if you rashly send a newbie to go with us, how will we explain anything to the hall master when we return to the hall?" The youth surnamed Gao was still unwilling to give up. As a newcomer, Lin Xing''s strength was lower than that of an average Qi Scholar, and he would only be a burden if he went.


    "Brother Gao, don''t worry. You don''t need to worry about that. I will protect his safety." Even if something happens, I will take responsibility for it, and I will not implicate any of you. " The small marten''s voice suddenly became somewhat cold, and its heart had an inexplicable sense of restlessness.


    "Zi Shi. Brother Gao, it''s also for your own good. Why are you being so petty? Kun Yun shook the mink stone''s right arm and gently advised.


    "That''s right. Brother Marten, I will just casually mention it. Since it is someone you have brought, we will naturally agree. Why are you still angry?" The youth surnamed Gao said as if he was trying to persuade a child.


    He turned around and looked at Lin Xing, pointing at Kunyun as he introduced him, "Brother Lin, let me introduce you. This is Kunyun, my friend in the Heavenly Cauldron, and she is also a rare sword immortal. Her swordplay is superb, even I have to admit defeat."


    "Don''t listen to nonsense from the stone. Although Sword Immortals are rare, they aren''t anything special. Speaking of which, I rather admire those who cultivate the Heaven''s Path." Kun Yun slightly nodded at Lin Qi, then gave Mo Zidao an intimate smile.


    Lin Xing replied with a smile, "You are very kind, Miss Kun. However, I have practiced sword arts for two days. If I have the time, I would like to learn a few moves from you."


    "What? Brother Lin, you are also involved with sword immortals?" The mink stone was extremely excited.


    As for the other three, they couldn''t help but smile. They didn''t take Lin Xing''s words to heart at all, treating him as a joke.


    "Sure," she said perfunctorily.


    Mo Zishi continued introducing the two to Lin Xing, "This is Gao Changming, from the Heavenly Origin Faction. This beautiful girl is Miss Qu Ying, and she cultivates a divine art. The two of them are lovers who met each other in the Heavenly Cauldron."


    Lin Xing nodded at the two of them as a form of greeting.


    Then, he couldn''t help but ask with a strange expression: "As far as I know, under this sky, no matter which land''s people it is, as long as they advance to the Heaven Smiting Stage, they will have a chance to trigger the Heaven Cauldron. Since the four of you have established a relationship with it, what about after you go out? "It''s fine if we''re close, but if we''re too far away, it would be difficult for us to continue our relationship."


    Lin Qi''s gaze paused on the four of them. He suddenly felt unnecessary.


    Hearing this, Mo Zishan and Gao Changming both let out long sighs, and the two girls let out sighs as well.


    "No matter how far away Kunyun is from me, I will go find her. This is an agreement between her and me." Mo Zi Shi''s face was filled with determination, and he looked straight into Yun Yun''s eyes, both showing their sincerity.


    "Me too." Gao Changming spoke.


    "Brother Lin, if there is a chance, I will also introduce one to you." Mo Zi Shi joked.


    Lin Qi hastily waved his hand and said, "Forget about me."


    "Mo Zi Shi, be careful when you speak, don''t lead us new disciples down the path. We came here to find treasures for cultivation, not to talk about love."


    A graceful woman slowly walked out of the city, her voice filled with annoyance.


    "Hall Master, I was just joking with Brother Lin." Mo Zi Shi laughed embarrassedly.


    When Lin Qi and the other three people saw this figure, they all simultaneously called out for Hall Master.


    "Better." Meng Luo Yu curled her lips, then asked, "Are you planning to go to the minefield?"


    "Yes, Hall Master." Gao Changming answered first.


    Meng Luo Yu pondered for a moment, looked at Lin Xing, then said to Mo Zi Shi and the rest, "He is a newcomer, his strength is inferior to yours. You guys better take care of him." Also, the demon beast horde will be arriving soon. You must return within three days. "


    "Don''t worry Temple Master, I will definitely bring Brother Lin back safely." Mo Zi Shi said in a responsible tone.

 C153

    Meng Luo Yu''s expression softened as she instructed, "Also, the minefield is in the Demonic Spirit Hall''s territory. Currently, my Battle Alliance and the Demonic Spirit Hall are quite nervous. You must take this to heart and not ignite the flames of war."


    With that, Meng Luo Yu turned around and walked back into the city without waiting for their reply.


    After she left, Lin Xing could no longer suppress that wave of curiosity in his heart, he looked at Mo Zizhi and asked, "Brother Mo, I''ve only been in the Sky Cauldron for two days, but the word beast tide has already appeared in my ears no less than five times. I''m really curious, what kind of thing is a beast tide?"


    These words flowed into the four people''s eardrums. Lin Xing saw the fear on all their faces, and his expression changed again and again.


    Mo Zi Shi''s face instantly turned pale, as if he was trying his best to wipe away that horrible memory in his mind.


    Finally, he opened his mouth and said, "Brother Lin, it''s getting late, I''ll tell you as we walk.


    On the way, the mink stone explained, and the other three people occasionally chimed in. Only then did Lin Xing finally understand the terrifying existence of the beast tide.


    According to what Mo Zizhi said, there were three kinds of harm from the Heaven Cauldron, namely the beast tide, the dead spirit, and the earth fire. The beast tide was ranked first among the three evils.


    In fact, the latter two were as terrifying as a beast tide. However, because they were not common, they were ranked last ¡­


    However, the beast tide was something that would be sent out on a small scale or on a large scale throughout the entire Heavenly Cauldron. There were many different kinds of beasts, but they would often move out together.


    Every time the beast tide appeared, they would attack the city they lived in. Without the protection of these cities, even a monster would die without a doubt.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing recalled what Meng Luo Yu had said. She had once said that the city was more important than any cultivation resource in the Heavenly Cauldron. Thinking about it now, it was indeed reasonable.


    If there were no cities to stop the beast tide, he was certain that none of these Heavenly Cauldron Monsters would be able to survive, let alone cultivate.


    According to what Mo Zizhi said, at least half of those freaks who died in the cauldron died under the claws and claws of the horde of beasts.


    Speaking to this point, Mo Zishan patted the spot where his heart was, sighed and said, "I''ve been in this Heavenly Cauldron for two and a half months, going through fifteen different kinds of beast tide, and six of them were extremely dangerous. Now that I think about it, it must have been a life-and-death training."


    "So terrifying?" Lin Qi was stunned.


    Sigh, the Heavenly Cauldron is a place where fortune and danger coexist. Don''t just look at the people outside trying to squeeze their way in, there will definitely be people who will regret coming here. This place is too dangerous. Gao Changming also let out a sigh.


    The girl named Qu Ying next to him glanced at him, then said to Lin Xing, "Don''t listen to his nonsense, how can it be so dangerous. Before the beast wave arrives, as long as we hide in the city, it''ll be fine.


    With that, she rolled her eyes at Gao Changming, "Don''t say too much, don''t scare the newcomer. In short, being able to enter the Heavenly Cauldron itself is a type of supreme glory. Even if there''s some minor dangers, compared to this glory, it''s nothing."


    "Yeah, my sect used so much resources to cultivate me to become a Heavenly Cauldron freak. Even if I can''t get out alive, it would bring honor to our sect." Kun Yun said rather dejectedly.


    Mo Zi Shi''s face turned cold as he glared at her and said, "Kun Yun, what nonsense are you talking about? We''re only half a month away from death, how could we possibly die in the Sky Cauldron?"


    "Zi Shi, I heard that there''s another wave of beasts that''s rarely seen in a hundred years ¡­" Before Kun Yun could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mo Zishan, and said with a sullen face, "Don''t talk nonsense, even a huge beast tide cannot break our city. As long as we don''t go out, our lives will not be endangered."


    While chatting, they had unknowingly come to an open area, and in the distance stood an old city. Mo Zishan told him that this was the Demon Spirit City.


    "According to what the Palace Master said, the Demon Spirit Hall has already turned traitor. If we were to come to their territory, will it be detrimental to us?" Lin Qi stared at the Demon Spirit City as a red light flashed through his eyes.


    "No, unless the people from the Demon Spirit Hall have gone mad and the minefield is the territory of our World Alliance." No, unless the people from the Demon Spirit Hall have gone mad and the minefield is the territory of our World Alliance. Mo Zi Shi said confidently.


    There are many ruins or ancient cities that have been left behind from that era, and have been developed to this day. Among these, there are hundreds of large and small ruins, and among them are the sixteen most dangerous ones, the location where lightning strikes is one of them. As long as we are in the territory of the Alliance of Heavenly Secrets, as long as we have a hand order, we can openly enter any of the ruins, but we cannot cross the border. Brother Lin, you must remember this. "


    The four of them could be considered old people within the Heavenly Cauldron. They wouldn''t be able to stay for long, and Lin Xing still had three months to go. It wasn''t in vain for him to tell them a few things.


    "Thank you for your advice." Lin Xing thanked him sincerely.


    Mo Zishan waved his hand and pushed this matter aside, leading the way towards the south of the Demon Spirit City.

 C154

    He looked into the distance and saw a vast expanse of land in front of him. In the distance, the sea was changing, and the mood was profound as an ancient wind blew over his face.


    At the end of his vision, there was an endless darkness. Electric arcs constantly flashed as if they would never stop. They densely interweaved together.


    In the darkness, there were two precipitous mountain peaks appearing and disappearing amidst the endless electric arcs. Lin Qi was shocked to discover that the two mountain peaks were emitting a terrifying sword intent, as if two sword gods were standing between the heaven and earth.


    Rumor had it that during the ancient times, it was a Sect of the Dragon Lake Sect. As time passed, the sect''s strength was unable to balance, resulting in the appearance of all sorts of chaotic forces of nature.


    Whether it was wind or thunder, or other natural elements, they were all vastly different from the outside world.


    The wind gradually grew stronger. As the five people were in a state of confusion, they couldn''t help but shiver.


    Gao Changming came from the Dragon Fairies. He was a heavenly being and had the power to control nature. He volunteered and took the lead. He arrived in front of everyone, and with the Circulatory Cycle Revolution, he blocked all the raging winds.


    The four of them followed him, reducing a lot of the resistance as they relaxed a little.


    But not long after, Lin Xing furrowed his brows. He also had a dragon''s face and a Heavenly Source within his body. When he arrived at this place, he sensed that there was something wrong with the wind and there was something wrong with Gao Changming as well.


    Gao Changming was standing at the front, blocking the wind. He had a troubled expression on his face, but it was filled with excitement. There was even a hint of enjoyment in his expression.


    When he looked at the wind, Lin Xing had not been able to sense anything strange about it before. However, as he went deeper, the wind became stronger and stronger. He realized that the wind actually contained Heavenly Energy.


    At the same time, he stepped out of Gao Changming''s protective shield and rushed forward.


    At the same time, he silently activated the Heavenly Origin Stage in his body and absorbed the energy from the wind into his body. Everything he did was done in secret, but the other four people did not notice.


    However, seeing that his figure had escaped Gao Changming''s protection, Gao Changming looked over and frowned, reminding him, "Newbie, quickly come back. There is a Heaven Origin Stage in this wind, if you are not my dragon face, you will be blocked by this wind for a long time, and the consequences will be unimaginable."


    As soon as Gao Changming spoke, Mo Zishi and the other two ladies noticed Lin Qi''s actions, and after realizing the severity of the situation, they quickly tried to dissuade him.


    Lin Xing knew that they were warning him out of good intentions, but he did not plan to reveal the source of the energy in his body. He could not help but lie, "Thank you for your reminder, but you do not have to worry, I have a secret technique to protect the source of the wind. If there is one more person I can protect, brother Gao will be under a lot of pressure, so I took the initiative to leave."


    "Alright then, be careful. If you can''t hold on any longer, hurry up and come behind me."


    Lin Xing''s words had won Gao Changming quite a bit of good will, and the latter told him this with a serious expression.


    Seeing this, Mo Zishan and the other two couldn''t stop them any longer, and the two girls sighed in admiration.


    In their eyes, as a newcomer, Lin Xing was simply too arrogant. In this land of lightning, even old men like them would have to give it some thought.


    Lin Qi extracted the Heavenly Source from the wind and simultaneously refined it in his body. Not long later, he felt an enormous amount of energy in his body.


    In fact, even in the ordinary wind, there would be a heaven''s origin. However, that small heaven''s origin was nothing compared to this place.


    This was one of the benefits of cultivating the dragon''s face. One didn''t need immortal energy or divine power; one could just stand in nature and sense an endless amount of power.


    The Heaven Cauldrons were generally filled with spiritual energy, but there were a few places that produced other powers, such as this land of lightning.


    It was unknown how much time had passed before they finally walked out of the violent wind. They arrived at an open area with black shadows appearing in a straight line on the ground. Further away was the sea of lightning.


    At this time, Kun Yun picked up three spirit crystals from the ground and covered them under the grass. If it wasn''t for the white light that shone from the crystal itself, it would have been extremely difficult to discover them.


    "Top-grade spirit crystal." The three of them cried out in alarm, and their faces were more or less filled with joy.


    Lin Qi looked at it and saw that the Spirit Crystal was not much different from ordinary Spirit Crystals. It was only a little brighter than ordinary Spirit Crystals. The Spiritual Energy contained within it was not something that ordinary Spirit Crystals could compare with.


    "Give these three Spirit Crystals to the newcomer. This might be the first time he''s seen them." Kunyun said.


    "That''s right, we''ve already obtained a great deal from the Heavenly Cauldron. We''ll give these three to Brother Lin as a greeting gift." Mo Zi said.


    There were a total of four people, and since two of them had spoken, Gao Changming and Qu Ying didn''t have much to say.


    Lin Ming happily received the three spirit crystals and carefully examined them. He smiled in embarrassment. Kun Yun was right, this was indeed the first time he had seen such a top grade spirit crystal.


    "Many thanks to the four of you. Then, I won''t be disrespectful." Lin Qi put the top quality spirit crystal into his soul cave and smiled shyly at the four of them.

 C155

    "Hmm? That''s not right? There seems to be more over there! "


    From the corner of his eyes, Lin Qi saw a white light hidden under the grass and pointed at it.


    Kunyun frowned and walked over. He picked up another two Spirit Crystals. The quality was not any worse than the three that he picked up before. They were all top quality.


    "Why are there so many top quality spirit crystals here?" Qu Ying, who was beside Gao Changming, asked with a frown.


    Gao Changming shook his head. His body flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in the distance. He bent down to pick up something from the ground.


    "And ¡­"


    He picked up another two spirit crystals from the ground, which caused the four to exclaim in surprise.


    It was common for top grade spirit crystals to be found in the Heavenly Cauldron, but all of the known spirit mines were monopolized by the World Alliance. They had never seen anything like this where spirit crystals could be picked up from the ground before.


    "Brother Mo, come here quickly, there''s a cave here!"


    Gao Changming in front of him suddenly cried out in surprise. His shocked tone was filled with ecstasy and excitement, as if he had discovered a new continent.


    Lin Qi and the other two quickly walked towards the cave. There was a cave entrance in front of Gao Changming, covered in weeds. It seemed like someone wanted to hide the cave, but it could still be seen faintly, with white light flickering inside.


    Gao Changming was wild with joy. He pushed aside the obstruction at the entrance of the cave and stepped in, and immediately afterwards, the sound of him sucking in a breath of cold air could be heard.


    "Brother Gao, what''s inside?" The mink stone asked.


    "Spirit crystals, top quality spirit crystals are everywhere."


    As these words came out of the cave, it immediately caused the four of them to be shocked and they stepped into the cave as well.


    "It really is a top-grade spirit crystal. And there are actually so many of them. "


    The cave could not be considered large and was somewhat moist. However, it was filled with spirit crystals that shone white light everywhere, nearly blinding the five people.


    "We were too lucky. We just arrived at the mineshaft and found a spirit library. This trip was not in vain. " Gao Changming was extremely excited.


    "Spirit warehouse?" Qu Ying frowned.


    Gao Changming nodded and explained, "This unhindered area was a Sect of the Dragon Face Sect during the Divine Ancient Era. I''m guessing that this is the sect''s spirit library that holds spirit crystals."


    Brother Gao''s guess is reasonable, the spirit crystals here are all of the highest quality and there are so many of them. Even in the Dragonface Sect, there should be quite a lot of them, and I just detected the aura of an illusion array outside the cave, which means that no one has noticed it before because of the illusion. And now, as the power of the array has been consumed, it has revealed itself. Mo Zi said.


    Gao Changming laughed, "That''s right."


    She didn''t forget to ask Kunyun half-jokingly, "Miss Kun, it can''t be that these Spirit Crystals have all been given to a newbie. Even if you give them to him, he won''t be able to keep them all."


    Kunyun didn''t know whether to laugh or cry and urged, "Let''s quickly put these Spirit Crystals into the soul hole. We can store as much as we can. As for the rest, we''ll leave some here for the people behind."


    How could they not understand what Kun Yun meant? Their soul cave was only so big, even if all five of them combined their soul crystals, they still wouldn''t be able to store them all. If they found a gunny sack and carried it on their back, the people outside would see it and no one would covet it.


    While the four of them were busy arranging the spirit crystals, Lin Xing did not move. He was constantly observing the minute differences.


    "No, there was a fight here not long ago." Lin Xing said.


    Hearing this, the four of them immediately stopped their actions, and said with furrowed brows, "Brother Lin is extremely cautious, if it weren''t for your reminder, I really wouldn''t have noticed it. There are indeed traces of a fight here, and the spirit crystals that just appeared also have a reasonable explanation.


    Mo Zi Shi then gave a long speech, but his speech was still straightforward, and Gao Changming and the two girls nodded in agreement.


    Only Lin Qi shook his head and said, "No, someone purposely dropped the spirit crystal outside in order to expose this spirit warehouse. Also, the other party should only have two people. This can be seen from the traces of a battle."


    "Deliberately exposing this spirit warehouse?" The four people were astonished. Their expressions were very puzzled, but there was even a trace of disbelief.


    There were so many valuable top grade spirit crystals here. If anyone were to discover them first and take them all for themselves, who would be so brainless as to intentionally expose themselves?


    From a different perspective, if there are only two people, both of you have thoughts of taking sole possession of the Spirit Crystal here. If you are one of the two, but do not have the strength to fight the other person, will you have thoughts of revenge against the other person in your moment of despair? Lin Xing said.


    "That makes sense." The four pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded their heads.


    "Sigh, let''s not bother about those useless things. Since we''ve been discovered, then we''ll have a share of the Spirit Crystals here. Let''s hurry up and pack it up and leave." Gao Changming said impatiently.


    "That''s true. No matter what happened here not long ago, it has nothing to do with us. Mo Zi said.


    Including Lin Xing, all five of them began to pack spirit crystals. Soon, half of the spirit crystals had disappeared from the cave. Lin Qi''s spirit cave was completely filled up, leaving a palm-sized open space.


    With everything completed, the five of them smiled happily.


    Mo Zi Shi said, "Let''s go. With these spirit crystals, even if we don''t go any further, we''ll be rich."


    "Sigh, Brother Mo, what you just said is too bad. Our luck is heaven-defying this time. We already got such a huge harvest right when we arrived here, which means that there must be a lot more good stuff waiting for us. Didn''t you say that someone told you that there was a cave dwelling not too far away? Since they are all here, they must go and take a look. " Long and bright.


    Mo Zi Shi smiled bitterly and said, "That cave was told to me by a friend of mine before he left the Heavenly Cauldron. If he didn''t leave immediately and didn''t have the chance to explore the cave again, he wouldn''t have revealed this to me. But as for whether it''s true or not, I can''t say for sure."


    "Zi Shi, we''re all here, we must be going. The four of us will be leaving the Heavenly Cauldron in half a month, so we''ll try to bring back as many things as possible. Even if there are some that are useless to us, we can hand them over to the sect." Kun Yun gently advised from the side.


    "Alright, since that''s the case, let''s go take a look." Mo Zi Shi had made up his mind.


    However, just as he finished speaking, he heard a crisp voice.


    "I want to stay here and refine these spirit crystals, so I won''t go with you. The person who spoke was Lin Qi.


    Brother Lin, we already have so many spirit crystals in our soul cave, you can take them back and slowly refine them. Why must we stay here? Mo Zi Shi looked serious.


    Lin Qi shook his head and smiled wryly, "I''ll stay here and wait for you. You don''t have to worry about me. Besides, I know my own strength, so I won''t get involved with you."


    Seeing the resolute look on Lin Qi''s face, Mo Sui Shi sighed lightly, and said no more, "Fine, you just wait here for me, don''t leave until we return."


    Seeing Lin Qi smiling and nodding his head, the four of them walked out of the cave.

 C156

    After the four of them left, Lin Xing placed some more weeds at the entrance of the cave, acting as a hiding spot. After that, he sat down in the cave, held a spirit crystal in one hand, closed his eyes and started absorbing.


    After absorbing it for a while, Lin Xing''s face slightly contorted. The spiritual energy contained within this top grade spirit crystal was astonishing even to him.


    Compared to it, normal spirit crystals were like the difference between heaven and earth.


    That pure spiritual energy rampaged within his body without restraint, and was not suppressed at all. After a quarter of an hour passed, Lin Xing finally heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he immediately grabbed the two spirit crystals.


    The spiritual energy in the top quality spirit crystal was too pure and dense. With Lin Xing''s ability, refining two spirit stones took up a lot of time and effort.


    However, the benefits were also considerable. The energy that was refined from the top quality spirit crystals was not inferior to any other power in his body.


    There was a saying that goes'' when in the world, follow the customs''. Just as he was hesitating about which force to turn that spiritual energy into, he remembered that this was once a Sect of the Dragonface Sect, so he decided to refine this spiritual energy into Heavenly Source.


    Roughly seven or eight hours later, more than half of the Spirit Crystals in front of Lin Xing had disappeared. His face was a little tired, but he was instead overjoyed.


    In the short span of seven to eight hours, his gains had been enormous.


    The Heavenly Source Energy in his body was sufficient to be on par with the Immortal Qi and Death God Power.


    He opened his eyes as if he didn''t want to stop, but what he saw caused his expression to change and he subconsciously moved to the side.


    "You ¡­ You are courting death. " A furious roar resounded through the entire cave.


    The moment he opened his eyes, a young face came into view and struck him with a fatal blow.


    If not for his quick reaction, he would have been struck.


    This person was tall and strong, with a square face. He was in a sorry figure, and both of his eyes were bloodshot as he swept his gaze over the spirit crystal piles around him. He then shifted his gaze to Lin Xing.


    "Who allowed you to touch the Spirit Crystal here? I have spent a great deal of effort to break this illusion, but you are still reaping the benefits of the fisherman. Today, I will definitely grind your bones into ashes. "


    The tall youth clenched his teeth as a monstrous hatred surged in his heart.


    "This spirit storage isn''t yours? Only you are allowed to take it, and I''m not allowed to take it? " Lin Qi sneered. He did not panic, because he was sure that this man did not have any companions.


    And although the person in front of him was a Qi Shi, if Lin Qi wanted to deal with him, he should have more than enough strength.


    "What do you know? For this spirit library, I came to the Heavenly Cauldron to study this illusion technique for two months and look for a way to break through the array. But you ¡­ you took that spirit crystal without even expending a single bit of your strength. The tall youth said fiercely.


    "Hehe, didn''t you already kill your companion?" Lin Qi sneered.


    Hearing this, the youth''s face grew dark as he roared, "Since you know, then I can''t let you live!"


    Before he could finish his sentence, his surroundings were suffused with a layer of black mist. Only his pair of blood-red eyes could be seen clearly as it pounced towards Lin Xing like a fierce tiger.


    He found out from the senior figures in the sect that there was a spirit library in the Thunder Dominion, and gave him a clear location. For this spirit library, he had studied illusions for two months, and not long ago, he had just broken this formation and seen the piles of spirit crystals, so he immediately became greedy. While his comrade who broke the formation with him wasn''t paying attention, he ambushed that person and seriously injured him, then chased him until he killed him before happily returning here.


    However, he didn''t expect that all of this would benefit others.


    The hatred in his heart was truly able to make the heavens and earth tremble.

 C157

    A wave of nether energy surged out like a wave, and a large amount of black gas appeared. It instantly enveloped the entire cave, even suppressing the bright white light from the top grade spirit crystals.


    Lin Xing naturally did not dare to be negligent as he sensed the black prison in front of him. His eyebrows pricked up as a sharp cold light shot out from his eyes, and his pupils immediately turned into two endless black holes, as if it could swallow up all darkness.


    The illusions were shattered.


    He did not hesitate when he made his move. He immediately activated the Supreme Realm secret technique and found the silhouette of the youth in the darkness. He then summoned two black lights.


    The white light of the black lamp suddenly appeared. A blinding white light flashed, and the darkness around the area began to rapidly dissipate.


    Using the two black lanterns as a guide, Lin Qi dashed out and appeared in front of the young man in the blink of an eye, causing all the darkness around him to disappear.


    "Celestial Arts ¡­"


    The young man stopped and let out a low growl of shock.


    His hand grasped at the side of the darkness and a black pearl appeared in his palm. The surface of the black pearl overflowed with blue flames. With a flick of his middle finger, the black pearl flew out and the flames also expanded greatly, blocking Lin Xing''s white light.


    Lin Xing still had three months to go before the Heavenly Cauldron, so he did not want to reveal too much of his strength. Since he had already revealed his immortal skills, it meant that he wanted to kill him.


    Puff ¡­


    Two more black lights appeared in an instant, and the white light suddenly increased dramatically. When the white light from the two black lights from before fused together, its power increased in a straight line.


    The black bead was barely able to resist the two black lights, let alone the four of them. They instantly fell to the ground from the pressure and seemed to have lost their spirituality.


    Lin Qi commanded the black lantern to continue its charge. He had no intention of giving it any time to catch its breath. The white light illuminated the entire cave, making it impossible to evade.


    The young man''s face finally revealed a hint of panic. He wanted to use the nether energy in his body, but the moment he appeared, he was mercilessly killed by the white light.


    Moreover, he had expended a lot of his nether energies to chase down his companions. Not only that, his body had also suffered some damage, which was why he had attacked in rage. He thought that it would be easy to kill Lin Xing, but who would have thought that it would be so troublesome.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that he was injured previously, he would have been able to kill Lin Qi. But now that he was injured internally and the Underworld Sect''s natural enemy had suppressed him, he felt like he had fallen into an abyss.


    Lin Qi was a cultivator, something he could never have imagined.


    "Wait, I''ve given you all the Spirit Crystals here, I don''t want a single one."


    He rapidly retreated until he reached the corner of the mountain wall. When there was no way out, despair arose in his heart and he couldn''t help but open his mouth to beg for mercy.


    Lin Qi remained unmoved. The four black lanterns shone with a bright white light, causing the young man to be unable to open his eyes.


    "You''ve gone too far. I''ll fight you to the death."


    Having witnessed the decisiveness and indifference of Lin Qi, he felt endless rage in his heart. The nether energy within his body actually rushed straight out from his chest, carrying with it his blood essence.


    His face instantly turned pale, and his expression became extremely dejected.


    He was risking his life, risking his strength to make Lin Xing pay a heavy price.


    Needless to say, his desperate final attack had actually managed to block all four of the black lights that Lin Xing had activated.


    This was, after all, a Heavenly Cauldron Monster''s final desperate counterattack. Lin Xing did not dare to underestimate it. The four black lights wildly revolved as massive amounts of immortal energy condensed in his palms, pressing his nether energies back into his chest.


    "Ah, I''ll kill you."


    The final counterattack was easily resolved, causing him to go insane with an expression of disbelief.


    Although he was also a Qi warrior, he hadn''t cultivated much in the two months he had been in the Sky Cauldron. He was also one of the lowest ranked Qi warriors, but he shouldn''t be so weak under the hands of a newcomer, right?


    The truth was that the problem lay in the immortal arts. The Celestial Gate was the nemesis of the Netherworld Sect. If Lin Xing wasn''t an immortal cultivator, it would be very difficult to take him down.


    He bared his fangs and brandished his claws as he pounced, but he was already at the end of his strength. With a wave of Lin Xing''s sleeve, he crashed into a mountain wall, causing a "boom" sound to echo throughout the cave.


    His life force was incredibly powerful. Even after he landed, he did not die. His body lay on the ground, twitching and spitting out blood continuously from his seven orifices.


    Lin Qi also didn''t want to waste words with someone who was about to die. The Death God Power scattered out and landed on his body, causing him to not even have time to scream before he turned into a pool of blood.


    Soon after, Lin Qi walked up with an indifferent expression and made a grabbing motion about three feet from his forehead. This was the location of every single hole in the sky. After his death, he had lost the protection of his soul force and could easily open it.


    After fumbling in the soul hole for a long time, his right hand took out a bunch of things and threw them on the ground.


    Lin Qi picked up two weapons and three types of Dark Arts from the ground and stored them in his soul hole. He then kicked the rest of the items into the pool of blood.


    He would not take care of this pile of things. It was all here, waiting for the others to witness a lesson of self-inflicted harm.


    He turned around and looked at the entrance of the cave. After pondering for a long time, he walked out. Before leaving, he casually covered up the entrance of the cave.


    To be able to leave a trace behind was the law of survival for the Heavenly Cauldron. Meng Luo Yu had once mentioned this to him.


    After exiting the cave, Lin Xing headed straight for the two mountain peaks that were flickering in and out of the darkness. That place was shrouded in a sea of lightning all year round, and looking from afar, it gave off a sense of oppression.


    Putting aside the power of thunder and lightning in the Dragon Faction, just the two mountains radiating a terrifying sword intent was enough for Lin Xing to investigate what was going on.


    He had just left the cave when he saw a beautiful figure on the boundless plain. She was also walking straight into the darkness.


    The two of them followed the same route, and soon, they collided into each other.


    Lin Qi''s eyes narrowed as he stared at the woman, and his expression changed. This woman brought him a fatal danger, and her strength was unfathomable.


    The girl glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and then continued walking forward without a care in the world.


    Her hair was tied up into a bun, and her long, slender hair was tied up to set off her peerless appearance. Her long, shapely eyebrows were slightly creased, and she appeared to be obstinate, refusing to let anyone see her from a thousand miles away. Her indifferent eyes, however, did not have a single ripple in them.


    Lin Xing stared at the girl''s side profile. He couldn''t help but be mesmerized. Regardless of beauty or temperament, he was comparable to this little brat.

 C158

    After a long period of time passed, Lin Xing and the plain-clothed woman simultaneously walked towards the dark area. Lin Qi withdrew his consciousness from the woman and began to gaze at the dark sea of lightning. His gaze then stopped at the two separate mountain peaks, deep in thought.


    The woman stared straight ahead as she retrieved a bronze disc from her spirit cave. On the surface, there were carvings of strange beasts, which gave off a feeling that it could pierce into a person''s soul. Then, the woman chanted a spell that only she herself could hear, and in the next moment, the bronze disc flew out on its own and entered the depths of the lightning sea, disappearing without a trace.


    Lin Qi silently observed this scene, his eyes filled with amazement.


    The girl in plain clothes stood on the spot with a peerless temperament that was rarely seen in the world. At this moment, she gently closed her phoenix eyes, and a large amount of heaven origin appeared on her jade-like skin.


    Without a doubt, this was another heavenly being that came from a great sect with the appearance of a dragon.


    The Heavenly Source entered the black lightning sea and quickly connected with the bronze disc that had disappeared. Deep in the darkness, the bronze disc was shining with a brilliant green light that could be clearly seen at that moment.


    Due to the arrival of the bronze disc, the descending electric arcs seemed to be attracted to it and all of them landed on the plate. They fell down densely, as though they were all sucked in.


    Then, an enormous bolt of lightning shot down from the bronze disc, falling onto the woman in plain clothes and enveloping her entire body.


    Lightning enveloped her, causing her impeccable appearance to change. There was even a hint of happiness on her face.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing finally understood. The plain-clothed woman used a magic treasure to absorb the Heavenly Source in the lightning sea and then directly transferred it into her body.


    That bronze disc was not simple, she didn''t even need to refine it.


    With this thought, Lin Qi withdrew his gaze and began to wholeheartedly gaze at the two mountain peaks.


    Before long, he seemed to have understood something and slowly closed his eyes to feel the impact of the sword intent.


    The sword intent that spread out from the two mountains was domineering yet unique. It had a creepy feeling to it, perhaps because it was constantly being overshadowed by lightning. If Lin Xing wasn''t a sword immortal, he wouldn''t have even sensed it.


    That sword intent was very special. On the surface, it was as domineering as lightning, but from the depths of his heart, there was a dense, cold intent, as well as a terrifying feeling.


    At first, that feeling of fear was very weak, but as Lin Qi delved deeper and deeper into it, the feeling only grew stronger. Not long later, his mind started to waver as a chill went down his spine.


    This feeling was inexplicably terrifying. Two words, frightening. Three words, very terrifying.


    An unknown amount of time passed by as a shocking sword intent spread out from his body and gathered around him, continuously roaming about. It made the air seem as if it was terrified, and it could not help but shiver.


    "Fear Sword Intent ¡­"


    Lin Qi abruptly opened his eyes, his expression one of great excitement. In the midst of his excitement, he immediately retracted his sword intent.


    Just now, he had comprehended a sword intent that came from the deepest part of his heart, the sword intent that he feared the most.


    He turned his head to the side and saw that the plain-clothed woman was still absorbing the Heavenly Source in the lightning sea.


    Right at this moment, the girl in plain clothes opened her eyes and turned around to look at him. Her phoenix eyes slightly narrowed and her expression changed.


    Obviously, Lin Xing''s sword intent had also startled her.


    After finding out that Lin Xing was a sword immortal, the woman remembered this person by heart.


    To be honest, the Heavenly Cauldron only had a tiny bit more Sword Immortals than the Hidden Heavens. Furthermore, most Sword Immortals were rather well-known.


    As they looked at each other, Lin Xing smiled sinisterly, causing the girl in plain clothes to sneer and straighten her face.


    Suddenly, a woman appeared between the two of them. This woman was running towards them from a distance. Since her speed was too fast, Lin Xing would not be able to notice her if his gaze did not touch her.


    The woman who had just appeared was breathtakingly beautiful. She was wrapped in red clothing, and her devilish body was accentuated with exquisite elegance. Her upper and lower body were very obvious, as if she was the world''s most beautiful woman.


    "Oh! Beast Ji, this place is not the territory of your Stardance World Alliance. You actually came to my Demonic Spirit Hall''s territory to absorb Heaven Origin Stage cultivators, aren''t you looking down on my Demonic Spirit Hall?" The woman in red first sneered, then sneered, and then a cold light flashed in her eyes.


    At that time, Meng Luo Yu had told him that the origin of the tongue letter was not to tell him where this person worked, but to tell him that he was the number one follower of Ji Beast. This meant that this woman''s position in the Heavenly Cauldron was very heavy, which meant that this woman''s background seemed to be a bit big.


    The girl in plain clothes was expressionless but her impeccable appearance was still calm. She replied with a question, "So what? "Do you dare to stop me?" The prototype of Ji Beast was a female beast.


    However, she still sneered: "As one of the Three Great Leaders of Xing Wu, you are the first to break the rules of the World Alliance. I don''t dare to stop you, but wouldn''t it make sense for my hall master to go to the ruins of the World Alliance and search for treasures?"


    "Really? Do not hesitate to let him come, I will guarantee that he will not leave this place alive before I do anything. Besides, I have come here with the consent of your Alliance Master, Lu Qi. What sort of status do you have? When did it become your turn to gossip?"


    Ji Beast''s tone suddenly turned cold, and the temperature around them plummeted. Lin Xing and the woman in red couldn''t help but reveal expressions of shock on their faces.


    The lady in red felt humiliated. Her knuckles cracked, but she didn''t dare to do anything to Ji Beast.


    Ji Beast''s name was on the outside, and he was a famous Heavenly Hunting monster within the Heaven Cauldron. He was one of the three Great Leaders of the Star Dance World Alliance, and his followers were innumerable.


    "If you have nothing else to say, then hurry up and f * ck off. I don''t want to waste words with the villain''s lackey." Ji Beast let out another cold growl.


    Lin Xing knew that the "villain" she was referring to was Chu Jin.


    "You ¡­ "Hrmph."


    The woman in red was almost driven mad by his words. Unconcealed hatred and resentment flowed through her eyes. Finally, under her grief and indignation, she coldly snorted and left without looking back.


    After the woman in red left, the scene became much quieter than before. Ji Beast lifted his eyes to glance at Lin Qi, and then he continued to absorb the Heavenly Source from the electric sea.


    Lin Xing calmed himself down and erased the memory of what happened. He then activated his Heavenly Source and formed a channel with the lightning sea to absorb the Heavenly Source.


    Sensing that the surroundings did not belong to him, Ji Beast opened his eyes once again. He looked at Lin Xing''s silhouette and surprise flashed across his eyes. Evidently, he had not expected Lin Xing to be from the Dragon Faction.

 C159

    "Sword immortal ¡­" "Tianyuan ¡­"


    Ji Shou furrowed his brows, his beautiful eyes were filled with longing as he stared at Lin Xing, his face filled with emotion.


    Then, he withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes once more, continuing to absorb the Heavenly Source stored in the lightning sea.


    Lin Xing used his own Heavenly Source to absorb the lightning essence without holding back. He then used the Heavenly Source to link a path of light to the lightning sea. The lightning element in the lightning sea borrowed the light sea to continuously instill the energy.


    What troubled Lin Qi was that he still had to absorb the Heavenly Source into his body first. Unlike Ji Beast, he could not use the help of the bronze plate to absorb this step.


    His heart felt a little unbalanced, and he couldn''t help but miss his golden mace.


    The poor mace was still asleep, showing no sign of awakening.


    If he had a trump card, how could he go through so much trouble?


    However, even without his golden mace, he was still not willing to give up. Although the lightning sea contained endless heaven origin energy, it was still attached to the electric arcs. Most of the descending electric arcs were immediately absorbed by the bronze disc.


    Thus, the Heavenly Source that Lin Xing absorbed was only a little bit of what was left over from others.


    He sped up the process, and at the same time, increased the rate at which he was absorbing the Heavenly Source energy.


    Puff ¡­


    He fought with all his might as the Heavenly Source inside of him gushed out. He connected the five light channels and went straight to the deepest part of the lightning sea, madly absorbing the energy.


    "Hmm? "You overestimate yourself."


    Ji Shou noticed this and his lips curled up into a mocking smile. To think that she dared to snatch the Heavenly Source from him, she would let Lin Xing know the difference between heaven and earth.


    However, in the next moment, Ji Beast couldn''t help but exclaim, "How is this possible?!"


    Because the suction force of the bronze disc had suddenly decreased, the lightning around it had actually turned a corner, heading straight for the six beams of light that Lin Xing had activated.


    In fact, it wasn''t that the suction force of the bronze disc had weakened, but the suction force emitted by the six rays of light had completely covered the bronze disc. Ji Shou was very clear on this point, but the more it was like this, the more she was shocked.


    The bronze disc that she used was of great origin and its power was not to be underestimated. Wearing it would allow her to revolve the natural power and allow her to easily absorb and refine it. It was a supreme treasure to any heavenly being.


    But such a treasure, which could make Heaven''s will more powerful than a tiger''s, was actually pressed down by a Qi Scholar?


    This caused Ji Mo Beast to be slightly dazed, and his face was filled with disbelief.


    The tides had turned, and Ji Beast was unwilling to give up, especially when compared to a Qi warrior. The grief in its heart was simply incomparable.


    She decided that she might as well take back the bronze disc. The Sky-source rolled and directly connected the ten paths of light in the lightning sea. Only then did the descending electric arcs turn back.


    Lin Qi sensed that Tian Yuan had become weaker in an instant, and turned his head to look at Ji Shou with a strange expression on his face.


    Then, he saw that on Ji Beast''s face was a youthful, youthful, complacent expression.


    This time, Lin Qi could not help but reveal a wry smile. He did not argue and continued to absorb the Heavenly Source from the lightning sea. Only, this time his strength had lessened and he was no longer as crazy as before.


    He wanted to save some face for Ji Beast, not to mention that she was a Heavenly Hunting monster. If he really pissed her off, Lin Xing would definitely not have a good ending.


    After absorbing for a very long time, about four hours had passed. Lin Xing was still wanting to withdraw the six paths of light, but he didn''t forget to burp, as if he had eaten his fill.


    He suppressed the restlessness in his body and saw that Ji Beast was still absorbing the spiritual power from within his body. Then, he calmed himself down and turned around to leave.


    He had an agreement with the four of them that they would wait for them in the cave. If they stayed out for too long, he would worry about them if he couldn''t find them.


    At this moment, Ji Beast turned his head and stared at the departing back view of Qin Wentian. His eyes were filled with longing, as though he was deep in thought.


    Lin Qi quickly returned to the cave. When he saw the cover of the cave entrance, his expression immediately changed. He realized that the cave entrance had undergone a slight change.


    He was certain that someone had come here after he left.


    He took a quick look inside the cave, and realized that there was no one around, not even a single spirit crystal was missing. He guessed that Mo Zi Shi and the others had come back to find him, and seeing that he was not around, he left again.


    "They went back? "With Mo Zi Shi''s personality, he won''t just leave, I''ll go find them."


    Lin Qi answered his own question and walked out of the cave. Once again, he covered up the entrance to the cave. Afterwards, he walked in the direction of the mine.


    After around half an incense''s time, he found Mo Zi Shi and the others.


    However, right now, Mo Zishan was in a rather bad situation. Five young Dark Dwellers blocked their way, each of them releasing a great amount of nether energy from their bodies.


    None of the five were weak, all belonged to the Qi warriors, while only four people like Mo Zi Shi were at a disadvantage in terms of power.


    At this moment, Lin Xing walked over, stood shoulder to shoulder with Mo Zishan, Shi Yan, and the other two, and stood on the same side of Ji Hao.


    "Brother Lin, where did you run off to? You''ve made it easy for us to find you." Mo Zi Shi said in a reproachful tone, but when he saw Lin Xing was right in front of his eyes, his face was filled with joy.


    But the other three were not so easy to deal with, and their faces revealed displeasure. Before they left, they had warned Lin Xing to wait for them at the cave entrance, not to run around, but Lin Xing refused to listen, causing them to be stuck in the dangerous lightning zone for more than four hours. Here they were surrounded by five other Dark World''s people, using their advantage in numbers to force them to hand over their treasures.


    "You five traitors of Zhan Tian, now that you''ve lost your only advantage, hurry up and leave. Considering that we were once fellow Zhan Tian''s companions, I can let bygones be bygones." Gao Changming took two steps forward and spoke to the five Dark Dwellers in a stern voice.


    "Hehe!" "What a joke, it''s just a newbie. I can kill any one of you with a flick of my finger. Today, none of you should even think of leaving this place alive."


    A horse-faced youth sneered. His eyes were filled with disdain towards Lin Qi, who had just emerged.


    However, right after he said that, not only Mo Zi Shi, Gao Changming, and the other three young masters'' faces changed drastically, even two of the warriors standing beside him had their faces turn pale in shock as well.


    "What?" Aren''t we just going to steal their treasures? Could it be that they want to kill them? "


    "That''s right, killing them would be too much. We would directly start a war with the World Alliance. If Hall Master Chu Jing were to know about this, we would have died a horrible death."


    The two people who had changed their expressions were startled and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

 C160

    He pointed to the other two people and said to the two Qi warriors: "The three of us only have five or six days left the Heavenly Cauldron and once we kill them, we will not have to worry about the Battle Alliance finding revenge. I know what the two of you are worried about, you still have a long time left in the Heavenly Cauldron, but things have already gotten to this point, it''s not up to you guys to decide. It would be better to leave them all here without anyone noticing. In any case, the Thunder Dominion is very dangerous, even if we die, we won''t be able to find out. "


    Brother Qing''s words are reasonable. If the three of us were to return to the mountain and wait for the three of us to leave the Heavenly Cauldron, your days would be very difficult. Someone beside him said in a low voice.


    "Well, we are the underworld beings, and we climbed out of the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood. Killing people is a common occurrence for us, and even if it''s a Heavenly Cauldron monster, we can still kill it." The two of them were easily brainwashed, gnashing their teeth, and made a great decision.


    "Haha, that''s right. You all have never tried the mysterious woman in the Heavenly Cauldron, right? "Today, the five of us will all have our blessings." The horse-faced man stared at Kun Yun and Qu Ying and laughed shamelessly.


    The other four laughed obscenely as well.


    Mo Zimo, Gao Changming, Kun Yun and Qu Ying''s faces instantly darkened, the rage in their chests could even burn the void to ashes.


    However, all five of them came from the Demonic Spirit Hall. Before leaving, Meng Luo Yu repeatedly reminded them not to fight with the Demonic Spirit Hall. Unless they had no other choice, they would not be able to do anything.


    However, not allowing them to have any thoughts of surviving, they only heard a crisp and cold voice resounding beside their eardrums.


    "Enough nonsense. If you want to fight, then come. Who knows who will die."


    "Newbie, you''re crazy. These five Dark Dwellers are all true Qi Scholars and people from the Demonic Spirit Hall. Could it be that you have forgotten the orders of the hall master? " Gao Changming angrily shouted at Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi lifted the two strands of hair on his forehead and sneered, "They''ve already said such a harsh word. If there''s no blood today, they''ll just let the matter go. I''m not going to agree to that." Brother Gao, are you a flower from a greenhouse? "


    "Exactly, if you want to fight, then fight. I agree with the rookies." Qu Ying stood up and stared at Gao Changming, her eyes filled with disappointment.


    Mo Zi Shi and Kun Yun also stood up and said together, "Let''s fight, no matter what happens, I will bear the consequences myself."


    "Motherf * cker, this newbie seems to be very arrogant."


    The originally despondent group of four immediately regained their courage after being incited by Lin Xing. The five Dark Dwellers were left dumbstruck.


    "Go, block the four of them. I''ll go help you after I kill this newbie." The horse-faced youth looked at Lin Xing, his eyes filled with killing intent.


    "Brother Qing, finish this quickly. This Mo Zi Shi is the Hidden Heavenly Sword Sect''s Sword Immortal, Kun Yun. He''s not an ordinary person. Finish him, and come back to help us quickly." One of them said in a deep voice.


    "Hmph, he''s just a newcomer. If I want to kill him, it''ll be easier than crushing an ant." The horse-faced young man humphed in a low voice. He did not put Lin Xing in his eyes at all.


    As soon as those words were said, the four people around him stopped hesitating and each found a target to fight against.


    "Newbie, it''s our turn. Tell me first, how do you want to die? I have 108 ways of dying here, you can choose from. All of them are to your satisfaction. " The horse-faced young man closed in step by step. Baleful Yin Force followed his footsteps, gradually spreading in all directions.


    Lin Xing did not bother to argue and did not waste any words. He directly took out two Immortal swords from the soul hole. With the two Immortal swords in hand, he quickly attacked the horse-faced youth.


    "Sword immortal ¡­"


    The horse-faced youth''s pupils suddenly constricted as he spat out these two words in a low voice. His relaxed expression was replaced with a serious one. He had encountered a tough one, and his previous arrogance was not without reason.

 C161

    The sword qi soared to the sky as Lin Xing attacked with both his swords together. One was supported by his chest while the other was carried behind his back. Both were flickering with light and his body was as swift as lightning.


    Puchi ¡­


    The horse-faced youth raised his eyebrows and let out a groan. He leaped into the air and with a shake of his arm, a streak of azure light shot out and struck the immortal sword that Lin Xing had swung out.


    Phew...


    Following that, the cyan light immediately dispersed, turning into countless silver needles that scattered all over the place. Following that, the ground began to crackle non-stop.


    Dust flew in the air, and the silhouette of Lin Xing could be seen amidst the dust, together with the two glowing Immortal swords.


    In the next moment, the horse-faced youth''s gaze froze. He saw Lin Xing once again slashing down at him with the immortal sword in his hand. It was as if a flood dragon had entered the sea, swift like a bolt of lightning.


    After which, he only saw two swords flash past in the air. One of them had his hair cut off, and if he didn''t react in time, he would have lost his head.


    "What a fast sword!"


    He flicked away the immortal sword and the clanging sound immediately resounded throughout the sky as he let out a shocking roar. Then, he waved his sleeve and took out a black flag with numerous skulls drawn on it.


    The Immortal Sword trembled as it rolled twice. Even Lin Xing''s body was sent flying out. Just as he was able to hold onto the Immortal Sword, he saw the horse-faced youth waving the black flag.


    In a split-second, a cold wind blew, and it was as sharp as a blade. Once it blew out, Lin Qi felt a burning pain on his skin, as if he had been slashed by a knife.


    The horse-faced youth was truly worthy of being called a veteran Qi Scholar. His fighting strength was obviously not something that the person in the cave could compare to. He had seen all sorts of underworld techniques.


    Lin Qi immediately took out the second Immortal sword from his back and raised it slightly. Immediately, he sent out a sharp sword qi.


    The youth was calm as he blocked the sword qi with ease.


    And that was only the beginning. Lin Xing, in the blink of an eye, slashed out a second ray of sword qi. Moreover, the power increased by a tiny bit.


    Just as the horse-faced youth teleported, his expression finally changed. A black flag flew out, bringing along a strong cold wind as it blocked the second sword qi.


    However, when Lin Xing unleashed his third sword strike, the young man''s complexion completely changed as he felt the explosive strength of the attack.


    The third level of the Divine Sword Technique.


    The third sword strike broke through his wall of wind, mercilessly killing all the cold wind. In a moment of desperation, the horse-faced youth''s mass of weapons flew out from his soul hole, blocking Lin Xing''s third sword strike.


    The third strike caused the air currents in the surrounding area to distort slightly, startling everyone.


    The battle between Mo Zishan, Gao Changming, and the other three had reached a climax, but at this moment, they had reached a tacit understanding and had all stopped, staring at the fight between Lin Xing and the horse-faced young man.


    "Did he really only cultivate the sword skill for two days?"


    Kun Yun came from a strange background and felt that it was incredible. A heavenly cultivator like him was actually able to train his sword techniques to a superb level. He was not inferior to her at all.


    "Brother Lin, you sure hid your strength well." Sui Zi Shi rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly.


    The others also stared at Lin Qi in astonishment, especially the four Dark Dwellers. They clearly did not believe that he was a newcomer.


    At this time, Lin Xing''s third sword strike finally landed after a moment of stabbing and stabbing. The youth with the sword and horse directly blocked the black flag in front of him.


    However, what frightened him the most was that the black flag was unable to block at all. As soon as it touched the flag, it immediately dispersed and the third sword strike continued to descend.


    "Hmph. Boy, I never would have thought that you had the ability to destroy my underworld artifact. I can guarantee that you will die quite miserably later."


    Although the black flag was destroyed, the cold wind did not lessen, and was instead stronger than before. The horse-faced teenager''s black hair danced wildly, as though he had been possessed, a vicious look flashed across his eyes, and he then used all his nether energy, transforming into a five meter long black blade.


    Boom ¡­


    With just a slight touch, a loud sound exploded out, causing everyone''s scalps to go numb and their ears to buzz.


    The black-colored long blade successfully blocked Lin Qi''s third strike, and the horse-faced youth finally let out a long sigh of relief.


    However, what he did not expect was that an even more fatal danger had arrived quietly. A sword intent that caused even his soul to feel afraid lingered in his heart.


    "Ahhh ¡­"


    The fear of the sword intent seeped into the depths of his soul, immediately causing him to turn pale with fright. Because of this, his face turned malevolent, and he let out a blood-curdling scream.


    "What sword intent is this!?" "Too terrifying."


    The sword immortal Kun Yun lost his consciousness. The others also had pale faces, as if they also felt the fear brought about by the sword intent.


    Suddenly, the horse-faced youth''s roar stopped, and his body fell onto the ground, creating a deep pit in the ground. What shocked everyone was that he was not injured at all, his face was ferocious, his white eyes were bulging, and his face was bloodless.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    The other eight people sucked in a breath of cold air. Whether they were friends or enemies, no one dared to believe them. However, the truth was right in front of them, and they could not help but believe it.


    Humans had their weaknesses, and humans had their fears. The Heavenly Cauldron Monster was no exception.


    Just like that, a Genius, a Heavenly Cauldron freak, and a genius of a great sect was scared to death by that ridiculous sword intent.


    They had never heard of such a thing before, nor had they seen it recorded in any historical books.


    They had seen all sorts of ways to die, but this was the first time they had seen someone die from fright.


    "Run!"


    One of the four Dark Dwellers shouted, and the other three Dark Dwellers immediately recovered their souls from their shock and fled while hugging their heads.


    "Brother Mo, stop them!"


    Now that things had come to this, Lin Xing would no longer stay alive. Otherwise, if the matter was exposed, he would be besieged from all sides.


    The Demon Spirit Hall only wanted to break away from the World Alliance and establish their own faction. However, it was far from reaching the point where they could start a war with the World Alliance. Today, if Lin Xing killed a person from the Demon Spirit Hall, he would definitely suffer from the crazy retaliation of the Demon Spirit Hall.


    The four people of Mo Zishan''s group were naturally aware of this fact. Once this matter was spread out, the consequences would be dire. Each of them would block one person separately, and then fight with each other.


    Lin Xing''s body flashed across the air and appeared right next to Mo Zi Shi, attacking that Dark Dweller together with him.


    The two of them worked together, and their combat strength was astonishing. The Nether Realm martial artist only lasted for half a minute before he was completely exhausted. In the end, Lin Xing''s sword cut off his head.


    After that, Lin Xing signaled Mo Zi Shi to help Kun Yun kill another Qi warrior, while Lin Xing went to help Qu Ying.


    After a short period of time, if there were no surprises, then this Dark Dweller would die too. He would not even have the chance to struggle.


    However, just as he was about to help Gao Changming, Qi Shi who was fighting with him suddenly broke away from Gao Changming and sped away.


    Seeing the disappearing figure of Qi Shi, Lin Qi''s expression immediately became gloomy.

 C162

    At this time, Mo Zishi and Kun Yun had also killed the fourth Qi warrior together. As they walked over together, they saw the disappearing figure of Qi Shi and Qu Ying, and their expressions were especially serious.


    "Brother Gao, how could you be so careless? Do you know the consequences of running away?" Mo Zi Shi angrily asked Gao Changming.


    The two girls looked annoyed and angry at the same time.


    Gao Changming walked over with a guilty look on his face. He cupped his fists towards Lin Xing and the others, blaming himself, "I''m sorry, I was useless. I let everyone down. If the matter gets exposed, I''ll bear the consequences myself."


    "You''ll bear it all by yourself?" Lin Xing narrowed his eyes.


    "Yes, I will bear the responsibility alone. I will definitely not drag all of you into the water." Gao Changming spoke with both guilt and righteousness.


    "Hai."


    Helplessly, Mo Zi Shi and the two girls could only sigh, their faces filled with worry.


    Clang...


    However, at this moment, the Immortal''s sword in Lin Xing''s right hand suddenly trembled. The sword intent of fear instantly enveloped Gao Changming''s heart, causing him to be slightly dazed. Then with a lift of the blade, his right arm slid off.


    "This is the price of deceiving me."


    Blood spurted out as his right arm fell to the ground in a neat heap. Lin Xing laughed coldly as he put away the Immortal''s sword.


    Mo Zi Shi and the two girls were shocked, they never thought that Lin Xing would come to this scene without any warning.


    Even the victim, Gao Changming, could not react in time. Looking at his fallen shoulder and spurting blood on the ground, the pain he felt spread to his heart, causing him to immediately wail in pain.


    "If you dare to break my right arm, I''ll kill you!"


    His roar was filled with anger and hatred. Endless hatred gushed out from his head and he charged towards Lin Qi with his life on the line.


    However, just as he took his first step, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He remembered Lin Xing''s previous fierce sword skill and felt his heart palpitate. He immediately retracted his attack.


    "Don''t blame me. You brought this upon yourself." Lin Qi''s voice was hoarse and emotionless.


    "Hmph, newbie, you''ve gone too far. Changming said that he would bear the consequences by himself, so why did you break his arm? Do you really think you''re invincible?" Qu Ying was Gao Changming''s lover after all. At this moment, she suddenly stood up and pointed at Lin Qi, scolding him.


    "That''s right. Moreover, that Qi Shi''s fighting strength is very strong, so I didn''t let him go on purpose. When we return to the hall, I will definitely ask the Rainfall Palace Head to uphold justice and severely punish you, the murderer." Gao Changming''s voice was harsh as he swallowed a pill handed over by Qu Ying, the blood on his severed arm slowly solidifying.


    Although the blood would not flow anymore, his right arm had been permanently lost. He would not let this grudge go so easily.


    Lin Xing sneered as he saw the two of them singing in unison. Did they really think he was blind?


    Lin Qi was not an unreasonable person. What if Gao Changming did not do it on purpose? Why would he cut off one of his arms?


    "Brother Lin, I believe that you will not create something from nothing. Since you have broken his right arm, I believe that there must be a reason."


    Mo Zi Shi glanced coldly at Qu Ying and Gao Changming, then walked up to Lin Xing and gently patted his shoulder, telling him, "I trust you."


    Mo Zi Shi expressed his opinion, and after a moment of thought, Kun Yun also walked over and stood behind Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi''s deep eyes were rippling with emotion. It was all a lie to say that he was not moved.


    "You all ¡­"


    Gao Changming stared at Mo Zi Shi and Kun Yun in disbelief, holding his breath for quite a while, but only said those two words in shock.


    "This place is not suitable for you to stay for long. Whether it''s right or wrong, once you return to the hall, there will be a hall master who will uphold justice. No matter who is right or wrong, return to the hall first." Kunyun said.


    The other four people nodded in tacit understanding, then Qu Ying and Gao Changming left first, ignoring the three of them.


    Lin Xing, Mo Zishan, and Yun Yun glanced at each other, and followed behind them at a leisurely pace.


    On the way back, Mo Zi Shi''s expression changed, as if he had thought of something, and asked Lin Xing, "Brother Lin, that pool of blood in the spirit storage was also caused by you, right?"


    "Yes." Lin Qi answered with a faint smile, and told the story of what happened in the cave to Mo Zi Shi and Kun Yun.


    After listening, Kun Yun clicked her tongue and said, "I said that the pool of blood was yours, but Zi Shi just didn''t believe it. He didn''t believe that you would fall so easily.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing stopped walking, turned around, looked at Mo Zi Shi with a sincere face and said in a low voice, "Sorry for making brother Mo worry."


    Being stared at by a man of the same gender, Mo Zi Shi felt uncomfortable all over, and his look became extremely unnatural as well. He smiled embarrassedly, rubbed his head and walked over quickly.


    "Don''t mind me. Zi Shi is just like that. I can tell that he values you a lot." Kunyun couldn''t help but laugh when he saw Mo Zishan''s back.


    Lin Qi smiled and chased after him along with Kun Yun.


    "Speaking of which, your sword skill has truly broadened my horizons. Especially that Fear Sword Intent. I have never heard of it before." Kunyun exclaimed in admiration.


    He then laughed, "This time around, don''t say that you''ve only practiced sword skills for two days."


    He rubbed his nose and said, "Miss Kunyun, I''m not lying. When I was practicing the sword, I only spent a total of two or three days. As for my Fear Sword Intent, it was just comprehended in the Thunder Dominion."


    Kun Yun''s expression twitched, he did not believe it at all, and said: "I''ve grown up in the Back Sword Sect, and have some understanding of our sword path''s great elders, I''ve never heard of any great sword elder reaching such a level after just two or three days of sword practice. Do you think I would believe your lies?"


    Lin Qi felt helpless, and no longer made any excuses.


    At this moment, a whistling sound could be heard from behind him. A red blur flashed by, and in the next moment, a woman in red appeared not too far away.


    The woman''s eyes were like silk, her figure was enchanting, her face was beautiful and illusionary, her skin was as white as ice and snow, and her bright red clothes were exceptionally eye-catching.


    "Goule, Goulin."


    Gao Changming and Qu Ying, who were walking not far in front of him, stopped in their tracks as well. They turned around and stared at the woman in white, fear flashing across their faces.


    "Yes, that''s right, this girl is the number one person under Chu Jin''s command, she must be here to settle some debts." Mo Zi Shi came close to Lin Xing''s ear and whispered.


    Gu Lin''s gaze swept across the five of them. She only stopped on Lin Qi for a moment as she recognized this young man. He had appeared in the Thunder Sea not long ago.


    Following that, her gaze turned infinitely cold, and her soft voice turned extremely cold as she said, "It was you Chisels from the palace that killed the four of us? I can''t tell, you guys really do have some skills. However, you can only blame yourselves for not going out today to look at the calendar. If you meet me, I''ll cut off your heads one by one and return them to the palace. This will also show Meng Luo Yu the consequences of offending my Demonic Spirit Hall. "


    Upon hearing those words, Mo Zishan, Gao Changming and the two girls'' faces darkened, and their bodies couldn''t help but tremble in fear.


    "I was the one who killed them all, it has nothing to do with them. If there''s any enmity, come and get it from me." Lin Qi stood up straight. Yiran was not afraid.


    Gu Lin was surprised for a moment, and then disdainfully asked, "You? You think you''re worthy? "You ignorant fool, I will make your boasting shamelessly pay the price."


    Lin Xing''s face was expressionless. He said to the four of them, "You guys go first, I''ll stop her."


    "No, the two of us can''t stay here either. We have to leave together." This time, the one who spoke first was Kunyun. He knew clearly that no one could defeat him, but he was not afraid.


    Mo Zi Shi also solemnly nodded at Lin Xing.


    Not far away, Gao Changming suddenly laughed mockingly, pulling Qu Ying along as he said, "Qu Ying, let''s go. Let the three of them stay behind and die."


    "Hmm? Qu Ying, what''s the meaning of this? "


    However, just as Gao Changming turned around, he realized that he couldn''t pull Qu Ying away at all. Qu Ying stood there motionlessly, with no intention of leaving at all.


    Qu Ying bit her thin lips and said resolutely, "No, I''m not leaving. I want to stay and fight with my companions."


    "You! You... Are you crazy? The three of them do not know their place and deserve to die. Why did you stay and accompany them in death? " Gao Changming was stunned. "You?"


    "I''m not crazy. Leave, I''ll stay." Qu Ying said.


    "You ¡­ "Hmph, that''s enough. Don''t blame me for not reminding you if you die."


    Finishing his words, Gao Changming left without even looking back, looking flustered and exasperated.


    Towards Gao Changming''s departure, Gu Lin had no intention of stopping him, she only sneered as she watched the show.


    Lin Xing turned his head to look at Qu Ying, his gaze filled with admiration and admiration.

 C163

    Gu Lin stood there gracefully. Her red dress fluttered in the wind as her eyes caressed the surroundings. She fixed her gaze on Lin Qi''s body, giving off a cold glow.


    She stuck out her tongue to lick her lips. Her gaze was colder than a venomous snake''s as she stared at Lin Qi, her killing intent soaring to the heavens.


    Lin Xing''s calm demeanor made her feel very unhappy.


    This was a genuine talent with exceptional battle prowess. He could not be compared to Qi Shi. On the surface, Lin Xing was indeed very calm, but he still felt somewhat uneasy in his heart.


    "As a newcomer, you have no idea how to restrain yourself. The Heavenly Cauldron has its rules, and you think this is your sect? You can act recklessly? "Later on, I will tell you what it means to have someone more powerful than you. There will be a sky above the heavens, and you will pay the price of your life for your stupidity."


    Gu Lin''s lips curved up in a sinister smile. However, before she could finish her sentence, a silhouette holding two Immortal swords rushed towards her.


    She frowned before relaxing. She had underestimated the arrogance of this new person. He even dared to make the first move. This was something she did not expect.


    Clang...


    Lin Qi was decisive as usual. He spouted a bunch of nonsense, but nothing came out of it. He did as he was told, and he did not hesitate at all. So what if he was a real talent?


    Mo Zi Shi and the two girls were also stunned, almost thinking that they were seeing things. The first to make a move was actually Lin Xing?


    When an ordinary Qi warrior faced off against someone, he would not have enough time to defend. Yet, he had decisively made his move. Was he planning on launching a sneak attack?


    The sneak attack was obviously not practical. Gu Lin''s reaction was extremely fast, and the ground around her instantly lit up with a bright light, enveloping Lin Xing''s body as he charged in.


    "God ¡­"


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows. He discovered that Gu Lin practiced a Divine Arts and even used a Divine Art.


    Boom ¡­


    The bright halo of light looked ordinary, but it was extremely destructive and had some elasticity to it. As soon as it touched Lin Qi''s body, it bounced him away, but before it could fly two meters, another halo of light appeared behind it.


    Lin Qi''s arms shook, and he placed his swords before his body to block the incoming attack. Even so, his arms still felt numb.


    Puchi ¡­


    When the immortal sword landed on the halo of light, it actually did not move at all. It was as though it had struck steel, completely unmoving.


    At the same time, Mo Zi Shi and the two girls also came up to help, circling around the halo and attacking Gu Lin from the side.


    However, just as they took two steps forward, a bright halo of light appeared from the ground, trapping all of them inside. The tremendous rebound force caused them to feel as if they had fallen into an abyss.


    Lin Qi wiped the sweat off his forehead. Sword immortals were good at close combat, but they couldn''t even get close to Gu Lin. Thus, he was stopped by her.


    He kept the celestial sword and with a flip of his hand, a ball of black gas appeared out of nowhere. He then smashed it onto the ground, and with a "pu" sound, the Death God power was dispersed like fine powder.


    In the next moment, the Death God power came into contact with the bright halo. It stuck to the halo like maggots attached to a bone, and then actually started to slowly erode it.


    For a moment, Lin Qi felt the pressure on him lessen, and the light around him lessened by a great deal.


    "Hmm? This is divine power? "


    Surprised, Gu Lin frowned slightly. Her gaze turned cold as her fingers pulled at the air in front of her. A huge blade of light shot out.


    Puchi ¡­


    Lin Qi reacted quickly and immediately gathered the Death God Power in front of his chest, using it to block the blade of light. Explosions kept ringing, causing the mountain and river to pale. Gu Lin pulled out seven or eight more light blades.


    The Death God Power gathered in front of Lin Qi''s chest, devouring the void to expand its body. It then rushed out, corroding all of the light blades that Gu Lin shot out.


    "Are you really a newbie?"


    Gu Lin was finally moved, feeling incredulous. She glanced at Mo Zi Shi and the two girls, at this moment, they were trapped in the light array, and this newbie, not only had he easily dealt with them, but had even started to counterattack.


    "So what if I am, so what if I am." Lin Qi replied indifferently.


    "Hmph, deliberately mystifying. I will let you understand the difference in strength."


    Gu Lin was enraged. This hero had begun to speak the truth. The previous attack was just an appetizer to her.


    With the wave of his red sleeve, a large blade of light shot out. It was accompanied by a melodious sound and extremely powerful attack.


    The devilish melody pierced the ears, causing Lin Qi to be slightly dazed. That red figure seemed to be magnified infinitely in his eyes. But at this moment, those light blades had already arrived in front of him.


    Now that the danger was here, Lin Xing no longer had any time to conceal his trump card and directly activated the Fake Destruction skill. His pair of black hole like eyeballs seemed to be able to devour everything, directly enveloping Gu Lin''s figure within the boundless black space.


    At the same time, Lin Xing took out the Immortal Sword and chopped apart all the incoming blades of light.


    "Ah ¡­" "Supreme Secret Technique, you ¡­"


    Gu Lin''s beautiful face turned pale, and her face was full of fear. She was forced back more than thirty steps before she dared to stop.


    A look of shock appeared on her handsome face as she stared at Lin Qi. Her eyes were filled with shock, but it was quickly replaced by greed.


    Although she did not know the origin and name of the Supreme Secret Technique, she could accurately recognize that it was a Supreme Secret Technique.


    No matter which sect one placed it in, the Ancestor''s secret arts were all supreme treasures, and even the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters did not have the qualifications to practice them.


    After staring at Lin Qi for a while, Gu Lin cast away her greedy gaze. Her body flashed and she appeared in the distance.


    After Gu Lin had left, the light formation had completely disappeared. Meanwhile, Mo Zi Shi and the two girls walked over resentfully.


    Inconceivable expressions appeared on their faces at the same time. They widened their eyes and sized up the rookie once again.


    Although they were trapped within the light array earlier, they were still very clear about the battle between Lin Xing and Gu Lin.


    This was a rookie that had the ability to fight against outstanding people, and his combat prowess was extremely strong. However, he had only been in the Heavenly Cauldron for three days. They had no doubt that Lin Xing would become famous in the Heavenly Cauldron in the future.


    "Brother Lin, you truly are too secretive. Our Vault Moon Hall has truly picked up a treasure this time." Mo Zi Shi smiled shamefully, as if he was holding back now.


    They hadn''t been able to help much just now. The only reason they had been able to force Gu Lin back was because of Lin Xing.


    "Brother Mo, I''m sorry, but I''ve dragged you into this matter because of me." Lin Xing blamed himself.


    "I apologize to you here on behalf of Changming. I''m sorry." Qu Ying said seriously.


    It was already a foregone conclusion that there was no point in continuing to talk about it. He continued, "Let''s leave this place as soon as possible. Not only did we kill the four disciples of the Hall of Eclipse, Gu Lin also knows that I have a secret technique, so she will not let this matter rest."


    "Yes." The four nodded.


    After which, Lin Xing led the three of them back to the palace. Each of them moved as fast as lightning, covering a hundred meters in an instant, their speed extremely fast.


    Gu Lin had suffered a setback once and would definitely call for reinforcements if she were to chase after them again. If they were caught up, they would probably die here today.

 C164

    Four hours later, the four of them managed to safely return to the area outside of the palace. The distance from here to the palace was only about twenty miles.


    To these Heavenly Cauldron Monsters, twenty miles was nothing more than a blink of an eye. However, when they arrived, they stopped and cautiously scanned their surroundings.


    The surroundings were filled with the marks of having been trampled on. It was a scene of devastation, with many areas riddled with huge pits. Some of them were at least five meters long, resembling footprints.


    "What''s that?"


    All of a sudden, the four of them focused their gazes on a dilapidated piece of clothing. That piece of clothing was only the size of a palm, and there were bloodstains on it. There were even some bits of flesh and blood scattered around it.


    "Wow ¡­"


    It was unknown what Qu Ying was thinking as she lost control and burst into tears. Tears began streaming down her face.


    "It''s Changming."


    Qu Ying went over and picked up the blood-stained clothes. Her body trembled and was filled with grief. Her tears had already turned into tears.


    Lin Xing sighed, his heart also feeling helpless. Although Qu Ying and Gao Changming had only known each other for a short two months, it could be seen that Qu Ying cared about him a lot.


    A lot of respect for Qu Ying grew out of nowhere in his heart.


    "How could this be ¡­ Brother Gao, you ¡­" "Hai."


    Mo Zi Shi didn''t know what to say, and could only let out a sigh in the end. Suddenly, his face changed dramatically, and he said with a trembling voice, "This is ¡­" The beast tide is coming. "


    "How is that possible? Didn''t Hall Master calculate the time of the next beast tide? So we were given three days. It''s only been two days. " Kun Yun''s expression changed, but he did not believe it.


    "Xing''er, are you stupid? Does the hall master''s calculations have to be accurate? Look at the marks on the ground and the pieces of flesh left behind by Brother Gao, who else could it be other than the beasts? " Mo Zi Shi finished his sentence with a quivering voice.


    That''s right, they were people who had experienced a beast tide before. They were very clear about the tracks left by a trampled beast tide. If it wasn''t a beast tide, then who else would it be?


    Roar ¡­


    Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar interrupted their thoughts, followed by a series of thundering footsteps from the distance.


    All of a sudden, the trees trembled and the sand shook as if there was an earthquake.


    Lin Xing raised his eyes and looked at the sky in the distance, only to see that the evil aura there had almost materialized into a large black mass of Qi that was sweeping towards him.


    "Let''s go, the demon beast horde is coming." Both Mo Zi Shi and Kun Yun gasped at the same time, as if they had fallen into an icehouse.


    He quickly ran over and pulled up the teary Qu Ying. The latter put away her remaining clothes, wiped her tears, calmed herself down, and threw a resolute look at Lin Xing. Afterwards, the four of them quickly sprinted towards the direction of the palace.


    The distance of twenty li was covered in the blink of an eye. However, the scene they saw left them in despair.


    Beneath the walls of the city were numerous beasts, and even more of them were pouncing towards the city from another direction.


    There was a fierce tiger in front and a hungry wolf behind. The road to the city was blocked.


    "What should we do? If we can''t enter the city and get no protection from the city, we will definitely be eaten by the beast tide."


    Kun Yun and Qu Ying''s bodies were trembling, their voices had changed. They were beautiful and beautiful, they could not be insulted. Just thinking about what would happen to them would cause their hearts to tremble.


    "Let''s head towards the main city of the World''s Alliance. There are many experts there, and once we reach the main city, we''ll be safe. Right now, it''s impossible for us to enter the city." Mo Zi Shi was also panicking, his face full of panic.


    Kun Yun and Qu Ying disagreed, and retorted, "The other cities must have been besieged by the beast tide as well, and the main city is over eight hundred miles away from us. We might encounter a beast tide there, and it will be even more dangerous."


    "Hai." Mo Zi Shi sighed.


    Despair filled their hearts in an instant.


    At this time, Mo Zishan noticed Lin Qi''s calmness, and the admiration in his heart grew. He asked, "Brother Lin, what do you think?"


    Lin Xing''s eyes narrowed as he gazed at the dense horde of beasts in front and behind him. He grinned and said, "Charge in."


    "What?" Charge in where? "In the city?" Mo Zi Shi and the two girls instantly popped out their eyes.


    "That''s right."


    As he spoke, Lin Xing moved. He retrieved two Immortal swords from his soul hole. With a fearless face, he decisively rushed towards the beast tide army.


    Seeing his actions, the three of them were stunned.


    To be more accurate, he was frozen in place.


    Then, as they came back to their senses, the three of them drew out their weapons and gathered their strength. They braced themselves and followed behind Lin Xing.


    The Heavenly Cauldron had three evils, and the beast tide was the most terrifying and dangerous. Once it was activated, many Heavenly Cauldron Monsters would inevitably be eaten.


    Fortunately, every city within the Heaven Cauldron was protected by a great formation. Otherwise, if the beast tide were to rush into the city, everyone would be in danger of being annihilated.


    The black horde of beasts continuously surged towards the city. The end of the tide was fierce, like a magnificent army that had tens of thousands of men charging into battle, and all of them were very powerful, the lowest being comparable to the Dao separation stage. The stronger ones were even more powerful than the Heavenly Hunter Stage monsters, and there were so many of them, that anyone could only despair.


    At this moment, all the members of the Dian Yue Palace were standing on top of the city walls, armed with weapons, ready to attack.


    Roar ¡­


    Suddenly, a vicious beast tore apart the protective light barrier. Its sharp teeth reflected white light as it pounced towards the people on the city wall with its mouth wide open.


    CHI *


    Meng Luo Yu decisively made her move. She unleashed her divine power from her palm and crushed that beast.


    Soon after, the previously torn corner of the vicious beast quickly recovered.


    This Great City Barrier Formation had the ability to repair itself, and as long as it was broken through, it would immediately return to normal. Those vicious beasts clearly understood this point, and they all spread out, taking turns to attack this place.


    As long as it was torn apart, one vicious beast would charge in. After repairing it, the other vicious beasts would continue to bite at it until all the vicious beasts had charged in.


    This was a matter of life and death. No one dared to slack off, and even the old man had gone up to battle, completely wiping out all the vicious beasts that had charged in.


    At this moment, Lin Qi finally understood why everyone in the Heavenly Cauldron had such deep feelings for their companions in the World Alliance.


    They were fighting with blood in their bodies, so they could safely hand over their comrades, who had all gone through bloody battles before.


    Under the city walls, the great army of beasts kept charging towards them. There were also loopholes in the city walls. There were also beasts constantly tearing apart the defensive formation and rushing in to fight them.


    Not long after, six people were wounded, and two of them were severely injured. One of them was severely injured, and the other one lost his leg due to a vicious beast, rolling to the side and wailing in pain.


    "Palace Lord, quickly look under the city walls."


    When someone noticed the abnormality below the city wall, they immediately let out a hair-raising scream.


    "This... Is he crazy!? "


    Everyone''s gaze was attracted by the thin figure below the city wall, and great waves surged in their hearts.


    "This newbie ¡­"


    Even Meng Luo Yu, who had always been used to big scenes, could no longer maintain her composure. She was so shocked that she could not extricate herself.

 C165

    Roar ¡­


    The youth looked around as he drew his sword. With the two three-meter-long celestial swords in his hand, he charged into the beast wave and began to kill.


    This scene caused everyone to stare in shock. Even the beasts seemed to have a mind of their own, and were filled with disbelief.


    Boom ¡­


    The sword qi surged. At the same time, it attacked a large group of berserk beasts. Instantly, all of them exploded, sending a large amount of flesh and blood flying in all directions.


    "Why does this newbie give me such a strong feeling?"


    "I feel the same way. This person''s fighting strength, as a newcomer, is too heaven defying. "


    On the city wall, a group of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters were defending against the incoming beasts while not forgetting to sigh in admiration towards Lin Qi.


    Meng Luo Yu was both surprised and happy. The old man''s pupils slightly shrank, and many people were astonished.


    Lin Xing wielded his sword and attacked. The sword skills he used seemed very slow, but they were always able to deal a one-hit kill to the vicious beasts.


    Moreover, it was an immortal sword. No matter how thick the scales were, they wouldn''t be able to withstand it.


    This was the Saber Replenishing Technique!


    In the ancient times, sword immortals had to learn this technique!


    Its strong point was that it could easily find the opponent''s weakness and flaw and then kill them.


    The sword technique seemed slow, but it was actually as swift as lightning. As long as he struck out with the sword, the vicious beasts would die.


    The Replenishment Saber Sword Technique did not have much offensive power, nor did it have much power. However, it caused the spectators on the city wall to be overwhelmed with shock. With just a touch of the sword light, they would undoubtedly die.


    "Brother Lin ¡­"


    Due to the great speed at which Lin Qi was dashing towards the city wall, he had almost reached the city wall, yet he managed to bring Mo Zi Shi and the two girls down with him.


    The three of them did not have Lin Xing''s one-hit, one-kill sword skill. They were all surrounded and riddled with injuries. In their despair, they called out to Lin Xing for help.


    Lin Xing decisively turned around and attacked from behind. With a wave of his sword, the three vicious beasts were instantly killed.


    "He still dares to go back."


    "He''s saving someone. He really is a strange man that values loyalty and righteousness."


    The Heavenly Cauldron Monsters on the city wall all gave Lin Qi looks of respect. Some of the women were even overjoyed, including Tan Cheng.


    Only Meng Luo Yu forced a smile and shook her head. She seemed to want to erase this proud figure from her heart, as if she was afraid of touching him.


    Although it was possible to practice the skill in the beast tide, the killing speed was still too slow. At this moment, Mo Zi Shi and the two girls were at the end of their tether, ready to be devoured at any time.


    He temporarily put away his swords and released a large amount of Death God Power. As soon as it touched the bodies of the surrounding vicious beasts, it began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.


    Some of the fierce beasts were the size of small mountains, but their corpses had also shrunk by half.


    This scene shocked everyone present.


    Large groups of fierce beasts fell on the ground. Lin Xing trod on dead bodies and walked forward, quickly arriving beside Mo Zi Shi and the two girls.


    Looking at Lin Qi''s still radiant and unscathed appearance, and then looking at the wounds on their bodies, the three of them were numbed. Other than being speechless, what else could he say!


    All along the way, Lin Qi had brought them too many surprises and surprises.


    "Come with me."


    He then turned around and took out two Immortal swords. He then continued with his blade technique, bringing the three of them with him as he rushed towards the city wall.


    Beast roars continued unabated, their wails shaking the heavens and earth. The teenager''s sword moved too quickly and viciously, causing the group of vicious beasts to feel a sense of fear.


    After another round of fierce fighting, Lin Xing brought the three of them back to the city wall.


    Mo Zi Shi and the two girls were so happy that they leapt up and stepped on the city wall.


    The defensive formation was only able to stop berserk beasts and was immune to humans. Therefore, there was no light barrier to stop them. With a flash, they entered the formation.


    However, just as the three of them ascended the city walls, strange expressions appeared on their faces. It was only at this moment that they realized that Lin Xing had not followed them.


    He quickly stretched his head out of the wall and looked down. He saw that Lin Xing had not ascended the wall yet, but he had actually charged towards the beast tide again.


    The two immortal swords danced in the air. As long as they were used, there would be berserk beasts that would die. At this moment, the blade repair sword technique was displayed vividly.


    "This Brother Lin is truly not an ordinary person." Mo Zi Shi and the two girls glanced at each other and couldn''t help but start laughing bitterly.


    Kun Yun bit his lips and asked, "Zi Shi, did he tell you about his origins?"


    "Brother Lin said that he came from a desolate mountain range!" Mo Zi Shi answered honestly.


    They did not believe Lin Xing''s answer. They guessed that this kind of heaven-defying newcomer must have come from some powerful sect, and only those giants were able to bring up such young powerhouses.


    Lin Xing''s arrogance had also angered the beast tide. The vicious beasts that were charging towards the city walls also turned their spearheads, and for a time, all of the vicious beasts charged towards Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows as he looked at the black mass of beasts above him. He then placed the two Immortal swords behind his back and bent down to his knees at the same time.


    Boom ¡­


    The beast horde pressed down and buried Lin Xing completely. There were almost no gaps as all kinds of vicious beasts pressed down on his body. Just their weight alone was astonishing.


    "Brother Lin ¡­" Mo Zi Shi screamed out in shock.


    Because of Lin Xing, the berserk beasts on the city wall had all disappeared. All of them ran to attack him. The people on the city wall felt much more relaxed and were able to observe their movements more carefully.


    Seeing this, worry appeared on their faces.


    At this time, Lin Xing was truly doomed.


    BOOM!


    Suddenly, all the beasts that were piled into mountains flew out. In the middle, a youth holding onto a sword immortal leaped into the air, as black death divine power enveloped his entire body.


    It was too terrifying. Even a talented person would not necessarily have this level of combat power. Even Meng Luo Yu admitted that she couldn''t do this. She could walk in the beast tide with ease and kill them all.


    The more Lin Xing fought, the more valiant he became. He completely treated this beast tide that caused one''s face to change as a target for his sword. His sword skills became more and more exquisite.


    Roar ¡­


    Right at this moment, an earth-shattering beast roar echoed out from afar, echoing through the clouds for a long time. The voice was like thunder, and even from afar, it still shook people to the point that their hearts would shatter.


    Hearing this roar, the group of beasts acted as if they had received an order. They majestically quickly retreated, and even on the way back, it was as if they were pulling at dry weeds.


    Lin Xing calmed himself down and put away the two Immortal swords. He then leaped up and climbed up the city wall.


    Once he reached the top, everyone surrounded him and looked at him in surprise, as if they were looking at a monster.


    Meng Luo Yu''s pretty face turned red. She walked up to Lin Xing and opened her mouth wide for a long time, yet no words came out from her mouth.


    "Didn''t you four go out? What about Gao Changming''s other people? " The corner of her mouth twitched, trying to shift the awkward atmosphere away.


    Lin Xing was expressionless. Just as Shi Mu was about to answer, Qu Ying interrupted him, "Changming died in the beast tide."


    His voice was laced with tears, but he still hadn''t gotten over his grief.


    Lin Xing sighed in his heart and threw a grateful look at Qu Ying.

 C166

    Hearing this, Meng Luo Yu didn''t suspect anything. She looked at the teary Qu Ying, then patted her shoulder, showing her that she was grieving.


    As the awkward atmosphere faded away, Meng Luo Yu turned her head to stare at Lin Xing, her eyebrows raised in happiness. This was the most inaccurate newcomer she had ever seen.


    The combat prowess she had displayed just now had shaken her to the core. By the time she had left the Heavenly Cauldron, the palace could be considered as having a successor.


    Just as she was about to ask Lin Qi, she heard a series of whistling sounds coming from not too far away from the city walls. She turned her gaze and saw that a lot of people had appeared in the outer space.


    The human figures below were divided into five groups, each led by a elite. They were here to assist the reinforcements of the palace.


    Meng Luo Yu''s gaze shifted and found that only Wang Yu''s Black Fish Palace was present. The other five halls had all come.


    It seemed like Wang Yu was still angry over the matter of robbing the newbies last time, so he didn''t send any reinforcements.


    The five branch hall leaders ordered the rest of them to stay put. Then, six of them walked towards the city at the same time.


    "Aiya, I thought that the palace was the weakest one in our World Alliance, but who would have thought that we were overthinking things."


    Six A strong voice was heard before everyone had even arrived.


    Afterwards, the six of them simultaneously jumped onto the city walls. There were two females and four males in total, and they were all young men. Each of them were outstanding individuals.


    As they looked down at the mountain of corpses, they also felt incredulous, and their expressions became strange.


    "Luo Yu, when did your palace become so powerful? "It makes me worry for nothing."


    A young man walked out of the six people. His face was radiant and warm. He walked up to Meng Luo Yu and greeted her with concern.


    Lin Qi looked at him and felt a chill run down his spine when he realized that this person''s strength was unfathomable.


    Observing the expressions of the others and looking at him with eyes filled with respect, it could be seen that this person''s identity was definitely not ordinary.


    Meng Luo Yu did not answer his question, but pointed at him and introduced him to Lin Xing. "Let me introduce him. He is Mu Rui, one of the three Great Leaders of our World Alliance, and also our deputy chief."


    At this point, she couldn''t help but sigh and continue, "We used to have four giants in the World Alliance, but Chu Jin betrayed us and took away more than 180 Qi warriors."


    Hearing this, Lin Qi nodded towards Mu Rui with a smile, as a form of greeting.


    However, when Mu Rui and the other five saw Meng Luo Yu''s actions, they were a bit confused.


    They did not dare to say that they knew all of the people from the palace, but they had more or less seen them before. On the other hand, Lin Xing had a strange face, he must be a newbie, but why did Meng Luo Yu introduce the vice president to a newbie so grandly?


    This was making too much of a fuss.


    Of course, with Mu Rui''s broadmindedness, he did not care about these things and asked, "Luo Yu, did you kill all these ferocious beasts? When did such a powerful sword immortal appear from the wounds of your palace? "


    As the sound of his voice faded, the five elites who had followed him all opened their eyes wide in anticipation of Meng Luo Yu''s reply. As for the group of people from the Mt.


    Seeing this action, how could Mu Rui and the other five people not understand? Mu Rui''s eyes were filled with surprise as he pointed at Lin Xing and involuntarily asked, "Him?"


    "Yes, this is all his doing." Meng Luo Yu lowered her head and smiled bitterly.


    "This ¡­"


    Including Mu Rui, the six of them were shocked and somewhat incredulous.


    Meng Luo Yu brought Lin Xing into the beast tide, recounting the events to them verbally. Only then did the six people believe her.


    "That''s right, continue working hard. In the future, you will most likely become one of the new powerhouses of our World Alliance." Mu Rui stared at Lin Qi, praising him.


    "Thank you deputy chief for your praise, but I can only kill these berserk beasts by relying on my sword skills. If I were to fight someone, it would not be so easy, and if the beast tide had not retreated in time, I''m afraid that I would have to account for it today." Lin Xing said.


    Meng Luo Yu curled her lips, while Mo Zi Shi and the two girls couldn''t help but roll their eyes inside as well. Lin Xing was so good at acting like a ghost.


    On the other hand, Mu Rui nodded with a serious face: "That makes sense. Vicious Beasts are not as agile as humans, as long as they have powerful weapons, they can easily break through a cultivator''s scales. There''s one thing you probably don''t know, right? If there is a chance, I can recommend you to him and have him tell you more about the way of the sword, so that you can further improve your sword arts. "


    "Thank you very much." Lin Xing nodded his head.


    Mu Rui nodded, and then changed the topic. He spoke gently to Meng Luo Yu, "Luo Yu, the beast tide has retreated. You come with me to report to the chief about the situation."


    The tone in which he spoke to Lin Qi was somewhat solemn, but to Meng Luo Yu, it immediately began to rain gently. Even a blind person could tell that he liked Meng Luo Yu.


    Meng Luo Yu replied, "That''s fine too. Let''s go. "


    Afterwards, Mu Rui led the leaders towards Battling Heavens City.


    Before he left, Meng Luo Yu ordered some people to burn the corpses on the ground below the city walls. She then ordered the wounded people to rest and gather their strength to prepare for the next beast tide.


    She also said that the next wave of beasts was extremely large and rarely seen in a hundred years, so everyone was mentally prepared.


    Perhaps it was due to the mutation that the heavenly cauldron''s beasts had gone through, but they didn''t have any beast cores in their bodies, which dispelled Lin Xing''s desire to absorb the lime. He then followed Mo Suishi, the two girls, and old Feng Qi back to their living quarters.


    The five chatted for a while, then each returned to their respective residences.


    Lin Qi had just opened the door to his room, but unexpectedly, the old man, Feng Qi, entered the stone house he lived in first.


    "Kid, what did you use just now to supplement your blade and sword skills?" The old man stared at Lin Qi with a serious face as he asked seriously.


    Lin Qi was stunned, somewhat surprised. He did not expect this old man to be able to recognize so many geniuses from so many great sects.


    Since he had already recognized them, he didn''t have any intention of hiding anything. He replied, "Yes."


    "It''s true!" When the old man received the confirmation, his pupils couldn''t help but constrict.


    Then, he pointed at Lin Qi''s head and said in an incredibly serious tone, "Then you have to be careful. After losing your sword skill for so many years, it has always been a treasured manual that the various great sword sects painstakingly searched for. If you knew that you knew how to use it, hehe, you can imagine what kind of scene you would see in the future."


    After finishing his sentence, the old man walked out, pushed open the stone door, and then heavily closed it after entering. He did not even give Lin Xing a chance to ask further questions.

 C167

    Lin Qi furrowed his brows, taking Old Feng''s words to heart. From now on, he would use the skill as little as possible. Unless it was a life and death battle, he would not use it again.


    Then, he walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. He took out a large pile of top grade spirit crystals from his soul cave and began to absorb them.


    This time, he absorbed all the spiritual energy he absorbed into his body and turned it into God Power, then merged it with the Death God Power.


    The Death God''s power had always been his strongest killing move, but because of the other four powers, he didn''t have the time to replenish it.


    This cultivation, lasted for fourteen hours. The Spirit Crystals in the Soul Cave had been reduced by more than half, and his Death God Power was also greatly replenished. It once again occupied the position of the dragon head in his body.


    Moreover, because of this, his cultivation had increased by another level. It was as if he was on the verge of having a breakthrough.


    Even with the most ordinary of talents, he would still have to support himself in absorbing so many spirit crystals at once. Moreover, with Lin Ming''s Ancient God Physique, cultivating here would be twice the result with half the effort.


    Then, he took out the Reincarnation Heart Technique to cultivate, and his mind was instantly immersed in the endless cycle of reincarnation.


    Time flew by!


    A day passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Xing regained his vigorous and vigorous appearance. He opened the stone door, stretched his body, and then walked out of the room.


    After walking around the city for a while, he did not find a single person. His brows furrowed slightly, and after walking for a while, he heard some noise coming from the city wall.


    Lin Qi saw many people gathering together in groups of three or four. From time to time, he would point his finger towards the outside of the city.


    "Brother Lin, you''ve come." Mo Zi Shi, Kun Yun and Qu Ying walked over.


    Lin Xing knitted his brows and asked, "What''s going on?"


    Mo Zishan seemed to be unable to explain himself, but he didn''t answer Ji Hao. Instead, he pointed to a spot outside the city.


    Lin Qi walked up to the fence wall and followed Mo Zi Shi''s finger, upon which, his face immediately darkened.


    "It''s Gu Lin!"


    His gaze froze as he saw Goulin and eight other young men squatting or standing there.


    At that moment, Gu Lin also looked up at the tower. She coincidentally looked Lin Xing in the eye, and a cold and strange smile suddenly appeared on her face.


    Lin Qi''s face darkened, an unexplainable unease arose in his heart.


    The reason why Gu Lin showed up here so arrogantly was obvious; she was definitely here to settle some debts with him.


    However, he was in the city, surrounded by the numerous Qi warriors from the Lone Moon Hall. Including Gu Lin, she only had nine people on her side. Did she dare to charge in?


    "Gu Lin and the other eight Qi warriors have already been wandering around outside the city for more than four hours." Qu Ying rubbed her small head as she spoke, but she still didn''t understand what Gu Lin was trying to say.


    "She won''t dare to enter. As long as we leave the city, she won''t be able to do anything to us." Mo Zi Shi smiled and said calmly.


    Lin Qi shook his head, not thinking much of it. Since Gu Lin dared to come, she must be very confident.


    However, what he could not understand was why Gu Lin was so confident.


    Did he really dare to charge into the city to collect debts?


    It had to be known that all of the strange individuals from the various halls were of one mind. Even if he knew that Lin Xing had killed the four people from the Demon Spirit Hall, he still believed that they would not sit idly by the sidelines!


    "The hall master is back." Suddenly, someone shouted in surprise.


    Two silhouettes could be seen whistling through the air. Their silhouettes were as fast as lightning, appearing on top of the city gate tower in the blink of an eye.


    One was Meng Luo Yu, the other was Mu Rui.


    However, Meng Luo Yu''s beautiful face was extremely gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.


    She ignored the greetings of the people around her, striding towards Lin Xing''s location.


    "I won''t say anything unnecessary, I just saw Alliance Head and Chu Jin, they made a deal, do you want to know the content of the deal?" Meng Luo Yu bit her lips. Her expression was ugly, and her hair was a bit messy, but she was still very beautiful.


    "A deal about me?" Lin Qi asked in a muffled voice. The unease in his heart was growing at a rapid pace.


    Meng Luo Yu sighed and said, "Yes, about you, Chu Jin has already promised to return to the Demon Spirit City. But she has a condition, she wants to hand you over by name."


    "What?" "Why is that?"


    "How can you hand over our people to someone who''s up to no good, that''s too unreasonable."


    A group of Heavenly Cauldron freaks from the palace spoke out.


    At this time, Mu Rui spoke with a dark expression. His tone was quite sympathetic and helpless, "That''s because he killed four people from the Demon Spirit Hall."


    "This... But even so, you still have to hand him over. "


    "That''s right, Chu Jin is ruthless. If Lin Xing fell into his hands, he could have predicted what would happen."


    The group of people were stupefied.


    On the other hand, Lin Qi seemed very calm. He softly asked, "Then what about Alliance Master? "You agreed to it?"


    "The chief did not say that he would hand the person over, but she did. In the future, Lin Xing will not be in our World Alliance." Meng Luo Yu''s eyes were a little red. Not to mention handing over Lin Xing who had just made a great contribution, if it was anyone else, she would definitely not agree.


    She viewed every person of the palace with great importance.


    However, this was the will of the Alliance Master. Furthermore, he could easily exchange the Demon Spirit City for it. If it were any Alliance Master, they wouldn''t be able to refuse.


    "Palace Lord, if you kick Brother Lin out, then I, Mo Zi Shi, will also go with him." Mo Zi Shi''s breathing quickened.


    "Yes, there is a reason behind this matter, and it has something to do with us as well. If Hall Master chased him away, we could only betray him and leave the palace." Kun Yun and Qu Ying stood up at the same time and said in unison.


    "You dare!" Meng Luo Yu roared angrily. She didn''t look like a lady at all, scaring everyone.


    So it was like this.


    Looking at the sinister smile on Gu Lin''s face, Lin Xing muttered in his heart. No wonder they did not hesitate to wait outside the city for four hours. They had really come prepared.


    "I feel honored to be able to exchange a city for me. Zi Shi, Kun Yun, and Qu Ying, you two don''t have to do this. Listen to my advice and stay in the city. Don''t go anywhere." Lin Qi took a deep breath and said.


    "No, we''ll go with you. If there''s trouble, we''ll go together." Mo Zi Shi and the two girls disagreed.


    Lin Qi ignored him, and took out the pass from his spirit cave, giving it to Meng Luo Yu, saying, "Thank you for your care, and this is also the last name I will call you, Palace Lord. Thank you. Then, help me stop Zi Shi and the other two. "


    After finishing his sentence, Lin Xing''s body flickered as he jumped off the city wall and landed rapidly on the ground.


    "Lin Xing!" At this moment, Meng Luo Yu remembered this name in her heart.


    Upon seeing Lin Qi land on the city wall, Gu Lin let out a cold laugh and called out to the eight Qi warriors to welcome him.

 C168

    "Hand over the Great Honored Warrior Secret Technique and cripple your own cultivation. I can give you a bit of pain."


    Before Lin Qi could even land on the ground, Gu Lin had already led eight Qi warriors to surround him. The first thing she said was a gloomy voice.


    Lin Qi couldn''t be bothered to waste time talking to her. "Clang!" The two celestial swords shot out at the same time. As soon as they met, they charged forward.


    His heart was currently filled with killing intent. Today, this place would definitely be a river of blood.


    "Capture him alive."


    Gu Lin smiled mockingly. With a wave of her red sleeves, the eight Chisels attacked together. If it wasn''t for the fact that Lin Qi had a secret art called the Great Honored Warrior, Gu Lin wouldn''t have minded directly killing him.


    Compared to the Venerable One''s secret technique, his life was much more important. As long as she could capture him alive, she would have ways to make him live a life worse than death.


    These eight Qi warriors were all Nether Realm beings, and all of them were genuine Heavenly Cauldron freaks. Their abilities were not something the likes of which Yun Che could compare to, and the nether energy around their bodies surged like a thunderbolt.


    At the same time, everyone on the city gate tower was also paying close attention to the battle.


    Especially Mo Zi Shi, the two girls and Meng Luo Yu, they all held their breaths.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Qi rushed into the encirclement of eight Dark Dwellers. With a flash of his sword, a human head flew out, and his neck was like a fountain of blood.


    One person instantly died, causing the other seven to turn pale with fright. Previously, when Gu Lin ordered all eight of them to attack this newbie, they thought they were making a big fuss out of nothing. This newbie was indeed fierce, killing a Heavenly Cauldron Monster with the back of his hand.


    Seeing this, the seven people had no choice but to put away their contempt. Their faces all became serious.


    "Bastard, I''ve long told you that this newcomer is not simple, yet you chose not to listen. This time, you''ve lost your life." Guli hated to see him fail.


    These were all Heavenly Cauldron freaks and all of them had their own pride. For eight people to deal with a newcomer, it was already making a big fuss over nothing. It wasn''t strange for them to not take this to heart.


    However, even if they retracted their contempt, it would still be useless. With a slice of the sword, another person''s head was sliced off. Fresh blood splattered out like a rain of blood.


    Lin Xing was currently using the Sword Replenishing Saber Technique. As long as he did not dodge his sword attack, he would definitely die.


    It had only been two exchanges and two people had already been killed. The remaining six people couldn''t help but feel aghast. Whether it was Lin Xing''s movement and sword skills, he had suddenly become unfathomable and was unable to find any flaws.


    Puff ¡­ Puff ¡­


    In the blink of an eye, another wave of sword Qis flew through the air as another two people were killed.


    "A bunch of trash!"


    Why was it so difficult to take care of a newbie? She did it herself, casting a divine art that focused its firepower on its fiercest target, which was Lin Xing.


    However, before her attacks could land on Lin Qi''s body, a black lantern suddenly appeared out of nowhere, shining with a resplendent white light that almost blinded her.


    "Celestial Art!"


    Everyone was flabbergasted. It seemed like this rookie knew a bit too many things.


    However, he felt relieved after thinking about it. He was a sword immortal himself, so it wasn''t strange for him to know some immortal arts.


    However, what was strange was that this technique was not a normal immortal gate technique. The moment the white light appeared, it easily dispelled Gu Lin''s attack. Not only that, it even drowned out the nether energies of the remaining four underworld experts.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xing threw out a large amount of Death God Power, which landed on the two Qi warriors. Afterwards, the two Qi warriors didn''t even have time to scream before their bodies rapidly shrank, their flesh and blood instantly evaporated, and in the end actually turned into a pool of blood.


    He died without a complete corpse!


    When they saw this scene clearly, be it the spectators or the ones fighting, all of them had expressions of shock on their faces.


    Even the corners of the mouth of the Heavenly Hunter Stage freak, Mu Rui, twitched.


    At the same time, the two swords fiercely shot out and respectively shot onto the chests of the two Qi warriors. They pierced through, leaving only a bloody hole in their chests, then their bodies fell to the ground and died.


    "AHH!" You killed them all. "


    In a short period of time, Lin Xing had killed all eight Qi warriors with a strange sword technique and a powerful technique. Gu Lin was almost driven mad with rage, her face full of hatred.


    "You''re next."


    Lin Qi withdrew his swords and gripped them tightly once more. With a stride, he appeared in front of Gu Lin. At the same time, the two black lamps shone with white light once again, causing her to be stunned for a moment.


    Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xing''s sword cut her down to the ground.


    He did not kill her, but only left a trail of blood on her back. Lin Xing wanted him to witness something with his own eyes.


    Gu Lin''s body tumbled to the ground in a sorry state. Her entire body was covered in blood and shock was written all over her face. How could she be so weak in front of this newbie?


    Not to mention her, even the spectators on the city gate tower in the palace hall had expressions of disbelief on their faces.


    For a newcomer to kill people as easily as slaughtering a pig or a dog, defeating a hero was simply illogical.


    In the end, they came to the conclusion that Lin Xing was simply too heaven-defying.


    Lin Xing grabbed Gu Lin by the lapel and lifted her up. He glared at her fiercely, his entire body emitting a cold air.


    "The hall master will not let you off." Gu Lin gritted her teeth and replied viciously.


    A bone-piercing chill spread out from his body as he said in an incomparably cold voice, "Stubborn, you guys have already completely infuriated me. I will let you see with your own eyes how I will ruthlessly crush your confidence."


    "What are you trying to do!" Gu Lin screamed in terror.


    Lin Qi sneered as he picked her up and ran off in a certain direction.


    On the city gate tower, those people that saw the black figure that was like a god of slaughter only felt their scalps go numb, as if they had fallen into an abyss.


    "Is he crazy? "You still want to go to Demon Spirit City and start a massacre?"


    "Heavens, there are over one hundred and eighty people in the Demon Spirit City!" And with Chu Jin, that Heavenly Hunter freak, guarding the scene, is he really not afraid of death? "


    Their hearts were broken, and they were extremely shocked.


    "This is perhaps the biggest mistake that the Alliance Master has made in her life." Meng Luo Yu sucked in a breath of cold air, her beautiful eyes wide open.


    "Maybe." Mu Rui sighed and did not say anything else.


    "Quick, we will also follow them to spectate. Not everyone will be fortunate enough to see a rare good show like this."


    "That''s right, I support Lin Xing in killing all these villains."


    A group of freaks from the palace rushed down from the city gate tower. They didn''t bother asking for permission from Meng Luo Yu, and didn''t even wait for her orders as they chased after Lin Xing.


    The distance between the Jia Yue Palace and the Demon Spirit City couldn''t be considered close. As Lin Xing carried Gu Lin as he sprinted, he naturally attracted the attention of many people along the way.


    At this moment, on the tower of Black Fish City, Wang Yu and a group of Qi warriors were staring dumbfoundedly at the fading back of the youth.


    "It''s that rookie!" Wang Yu had a strange expression on his face, then he seemed to have remembered something. After taking a deep breath, he hurriedly said, "Quick, leave five people to look after the house, the rest follow me and follow him."

 C169

    An afterimage streaked through the air, creating a large wind sound. In a few breaths, the figure appeared extremely far away.


    In the next moment, a large group of people came whistling through the air as countless figures rushed over from different directions, closely following the afterimage from before.


    As fast as lightning, Lin Xing grabbed onto Gu Lin and sprinted towards the Demon Spirit City. His speed was astonishing, causing many of the elites to gasp in amazement.


    This attracted a lot of attention. Not only did it startle the World Alliance, but the nearby World Alliance members also rushed over after hearing the news. At the same time, the news was spreading like wildfire throughout the entire cauldron.


    Lin Xing had already gone mad. Today, he would definitely cause a river of blood to flow through the Demon Spirit City.


    A new disciple had declared war on the strongest branch hall of the former Heavenly World Alliance.


    His killing intent swept out in all directions like a torrent. The bone-piercing coldness covered the surrounding vegetation in a layer of white frost. Especially Gu Lin, who was held in his hand. She felt the chill and trembled as she attacked him one after another.


    When he arrived at the entrance of Demon Spirit City, a large group of onlookers followed behind him.


    When the people on top of the Demon Spirit''s city wall saw this scene, they were all stunned. When they saw the injured Gu Lin in Lin Qi''s hands, their expressions changed drastically. They thought that the World Alliance was going to use force to take back the Demon Spirit City, so they hurried back to the city to send orders for everyone to enter into a state of emergency.


    Lin Qi cast a cold glance at Gu Lin, who was still in his hands, and then casually threw her onto the ground. She was extremely brutal and she did not have the slightest intention of showing mercy to Gu Lin because she was a woman.


    "You killed twelve people from my Demonic Spirit Hall. This grudge will never be broken and the hall master will definitely grind your bones to dust. Just you wait. From today onwards, there will no longer be a place for you in the Sky Cauldron."


    Although she looked to be in a sorry state, Gu Lin''s tone was stern, and her tone was extremely resentful.


    But somehow, when he looked up at the cold youth''s figure, he felt an indescribable unease in his heart.


    Could it be that he was able to kill them all by himself when he was in the hands of more than a hundred and eighty Qi warriors? This was obviously impractical, even a Heaven Class freak would not be able to do it.


    From her point of view, Lin Xing had also been blinded by anger. In a moment, he would regret it.


    "I said, I will let you witness something with your own eyes."


    Lin Qi coldly said. Then, his body flashed as he directly rushed towards the Demon Spirit City. At the same time, he took out two Immortal swords. He held one in each hand as a sharp sword energy spiraled out from his body.


    "This person has really gone mad ¡­"


    "He''s just a Qi warrior. Where did he get the courage to challenge the experts of the Devil Spirit Hall?"


    At this moment, there were countless spectators.


    Everyone was shocked. They didn''t care whether Lin Xing would win or not. With just this courage alone, his name would definitely resound through the entire Heavenly Cauldron.


    Of course, there were also people who scoffed at him. Those who resounded within the Heavenly Cauldron would only be idiots. Lin Xing''s actions were undoubtedly courting death.


    Some people even turned around and headed back. There was no suspense to their victory or defeat. Today, another rookie who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth would fall.


    He still thought this was his sect? He can do whatever he wants to the younger generation?


    It had to be known that each and every one of the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters were geniuses among geniuses. It was unknown just how many geniuses stepped on their heads to ascend to the top. Each and every one of them had heaven-defying talents.


    When the monsters on top of the Demon Spirit''s City saw that there was only one person that was charging toward them, the group of monsters behind them all stood there and watched without doing anything, causing them to be stunned.


    Was this rookie crazy?


    Then, their gazes turned cold and their killing intent surged. If a newcomer dared to challenge the dignity of their Demon Spirit Hall, they would definitely make him regret coming to this world.


    Puff ¡­


    Before the people on the city wall could react, Lin Qi had already jumped onto the city wall with two three-meter long swords in hand. He performed the Third Charge of the Divine Sword Technique and chopped down three people in three moves.


    After that, a large group of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters ran out from the city. Upon seeing this scene, they immediately became extremely furious, charging towards Lin Xing at the same time.


    "You''re courting death."


    The people from the Demonic Spirit Hall were furious.


    Lin Qi''s expression was grave and stern. He couldn''t be bothered to waste words with them. Carrying the immortal sword, he flew down from the city wall and landed on the ground with both feet.


    The people from the Demonic Spirit Hall chased after him, forming a circle around him.


    "One, two, three ¡­" Thirty-two Chisels. "


    Some spectators stretched out their hands to check, only to discover that there were thirty-two Qi warriors surrounding Lin Xing.


    Furthermore, there were also Qi Shi from the Demonic Spirit Hall who had received the news and were rushing toward the city gate. They all wanted to know who it was that dared to come to their Demonic Spirit Hall to attack.


    At this moment, a young man was standing on top of the city gate tower. His gaze paused on Gu Lin for a moment before it fell on Lin Xing. Immediately, he clenched his fists until they were as hard as steel.


    No one dares to challenge the dignity of my Demonic Spirit Hall, not even Battling Heavens brotherhood''s chief, Lu Qi. You, a newbie who just entered the Heavenly Cauldron, actually dare to act so arrogantly. The Heavenly Cauldron was originally a holy land for cultivation, but now, it seems that it will become your burial ground.


    The young man''s name was Xu Chi, and he was also the third strongest person from the Demon Spirit Hall. As soon as he spoke, the thirty-two Qi warriors that surrounded Lin Xing no longer hesitated as they rushed towards him.


    32 Qi warriors attacking a new disciple at the same time was unprecedented in the world of the Sky Cauldron.


    With just this, even if Lin Xing died tragically, he would still be able to rest in peace.


    At the same time, the many spectators also felt fear and trepidation as they were all sweating for him.


    Seeing Lin Qi in a tight spot, how could Mo Zi Shi remain calm? Even Kun Yun and Qu Ying couldn''t hold themselves back anymore, and rushed up to help.


    "Stop, none of you are allowed to go."


    Meng Luo Yu coldly shouted. Her body flashed and blocked the path of the three people. The three of them couldn''t withstand the pressure and were forced to retreat step by step.


    "Palace Lord ¡­" The three of them were furious.


    Meng Luo Yu glared at them coldly before turning around to continue watching the fight between Lin Xing and the Demonic Spirit Hall. At the same time, she clenched her small fists as a strange light flashed through her large eyes.


    At this time, Lin Xing and the thirty-two Chisels were engaged in a fiery battle.


    He used the third sword technique. The first two swords were used to block attacks, while the third was used to counterattack.


    Every time the third slash came out, a person would die.


    In just a short period of time, he had killed five more people. His powerful sword technique had shocked many spectators.


    However, he was not relaxed at all. After all, these were all Heavenly Cauldron freaks with extremely powerful attacks. Even though his sword techniques were extremely sharp, he was unable to block them all. His body was also wounded, bleeding profusely.


    Puff ¡­


    Four black lamps lit up, and a resplendent white light lit up without any warning. It was extremely dazzling, causing Qi Shi who was attacking him to have no choice but to close his eyes.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xing immediately executed his Saber Replenishing Sword Skill. With a flick of his sword, the heads of the five martial artists flew off, and blood sprayed into the air.

 C170

    In a short period of time, the ten Qi warriors'' heads fell to the ground. Headless corpses collapsed, and a large area of the ground was dyed red with their blood.


    Seeing this scene, the spectators felt as if the sky had been shattered, and the people from the Demonic Spirit Hall felt as if their heads had split apart.


    Lin Xing''s body was also riddled with wounds. After all, he was just a hero. No matter how strong his combat prowess was, under the siege of thirty-two Qi warriors, he would not be injured in the slightest.


    At this moment, he seemed to have turned into a man of blood. There were enemies and there were also his own wounds. His clothes were severely damaged, and there were several shocking wounds on his body.


    "Send more people."


    Xu Que pointed his finger at Lin Qi and roared. Another group of Qi warriors leapt down from the city wall.


    Lin Qi took out a pile of pills from his soul hole. Regardless of the effects, he directly stuffed them into his mouth, stopping the blood from gushing into his heart.


    Then, with an explosive shout, the immortal sword left his hands and flew out to meet the group of Qi warriors who had just flown down from the city gate tower.


    "Ah ¡­"


    The Death God''s power was like fine powder that scattered everywhere, hitting the seven people. All the vitality in their bodies was instantly corroded, and with two miserable cries, it turned into a pool of blood.


    With the exception of Feng Li, who had used all his trump cards, the rest of his trump cards had been fully unleashed.


    He activated the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern Technique to the extreme. Five black lanterns emerged out of thin air, emitting a white light that seemed to cover an area of ten miles.


    The Qi Scholars of the Demon Spirit Hall were generally all Dark Dwellers. However, within this white light, the power of their Dark Energy was greatly reduced, and they were unable to display the greatest of their abilities.


    Rumble ¡­


    At this time, a large mass of dark clouds floated over from the sky. Thunder rumbled from there, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. In an instant, the earth sank into darkness.


    "Long Yan ¡­"


    The audience was stunned. It seemed like this newbie knew a lot of things.


    Over a hundred bolts of lightning that were as thick as bowls struck down. Many people were unable to dodge in time and were struck. Immediately, their bodies were scorched black and emitted green smoke. Only their eyeballs were still white.


    All of a sudden, twenty-four Chisels fell dead.


    "Hiss ¡­"


    In the spectating group, sounds of people inhaling cold air continuously sounded out.


    The Heavenly Hunter Stage monster, Mu Rui, was no less shocked than anyone else. Lin Xing''s combat strength had even caused him to feel a chill run down his spine.


    When the ashen-faced Gu Lin saw all of this, she felt her scalp tingle. Inexhaustible regret welled up from the bottom of her heart. Just what kind of monster did she provoke?


    In fact, what shocked them the most was Lin Xing''s talent. From the start, he displayed four types of power: Death God Power, Immortal Qi, Heavenly Source, and even a sword art from the Sword Immortal lineage.


    What kind of monster was this? He could cultivate multiple powers at the same time, and even advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage at such a young age?


    Although it was not impossible to cultivate these three types of powers together, it would not cause rejection, but it would take a lot of time and effort. Furthermore, Lin Xing not only cultivated the three types of powers together, but also had sword skills.


    In truth, they had also forgotten one thing. In the course of Lin Xing''s battle, he had even used the ''Sky Concealment Technique''. However, because the ''Sky Concealment Technique'' was rarely seen and nobody recognized it, they mistakenly assumed that it was a divine technique.


    Only a few of the hidden experts'' pupils dilated when they saw Lin Xing cast the Sky Concealment Spell.


    He stomped on the ground fiercely and leaped into the air. A mass of black mist appeared from behind him and turned into two black mist wings. With a slight flap, a violent wind blew.


    The black silk wings allowed him to temporarily step into the air and soar high into the sky. Then, with a savage expression, he activated a large black mist and dived towards Lin Xing.


    Even though Lin Xing had used a thunderous method to brutally slaughter more than fifty Qi warriors, he was still severely injured and exhausted. He was already at the end of his wits.


    At this moment, this person unleashed a thunderous attack, causing him to be at a loss as to what to do.


    Suddenly, he had an idea. A simple and unadorned black bow appeared in his hand. He nocked an arrow and pulled it into a full moon. Then, he lifted his hand and shot towards Xu Chi.


    Whoosh ¡­


    Xu Chi disdainfully sneered. That black bow was simple and unadorned, probably lacking in power. This should be the last struggle that Lin Xing would have before he died.


    As he thought of this, he continued to rush forward, at the same time raising his hand to push the black mist downwards.


    However, the arrow had pierced through his black mist, causing his expression to change. He had no time to defend against it, so he could only flutter his wings and dodge to the side.


    However, in the end, he was still a step too late and did not completely dodge the arrow. His right arm had been shot through, leaving behind a hole.


    Puff ¡­


    The black fog that he controlled was also completely suppressed. Lin Xing''s five black lights were actually unable to block it, directly blasting him away and sending his body a hundred meters away.


    "Pfft."


    He spat out a mouthful of blood and propped up his body that was full of wounds with great difficulty. Seeing another large group of Qi warriors charge towards him, he bit his lips and raised his immortal sword to meet them head on.


    It was too tragic.


    Corpses littered the ground, and blood flowed like a river.


    Lin Qi''s body was covered in blood and was riddled with wounds. Ever since he started cultivating, his injuries had never been this severe.


    His two swords madly hacked down. Once he struck out, people immediately died. Even though they were all spent, they still intimidated the group of people. After fighting for a while, all of them quickly retreated, and no one dared to attack again.


    And at this time, from the distance, a figure was flying over. It was a young man with red lips, white teeth, sharp eyebrows, phoenix eyes, a feminine face, and lips much thinner than an ordinary person.


    "It''s Chu Jin, he''s back."


    Seeing this figure, the group of people''s faces changed. They understood that Lin Xing was dead for sure today.


    "Ah, you destroyed my foundation, even if you give me one hundred lives it''s still not enough to repay me. Once we exit the Heavenly Cauldron, I''ll go and uproot your sect and slaughter everyone there. It''s you, you''re the one who pushed them into a pit of fire."


    Seeing the corpses that littered the ground, Chu Jin went crazy. He madly roared, and his feminine face was even more ferocious than that of an evil ghost. Every word almost popped out from his teeth, and an endless hatred began to spread with him as the center.


    One of the four giants of the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion had been driven mad by a newcomer.


    He was a man of ambition, and cultivating his strength within the Heavenly Cauldron was his long-term plan.


    He was someone destined to become a god. In the future, when he fought in this world, these Heavenly Cauldron Monsters would be a great source of power.


    The reason why they betrayed the World Alliance was to test their loyalty. It was not as simple as standing on their own feet.


    In the future, when he exited the Heavenly Cauldron, he would be able to rise above the level of others. He believed that these people would definitely continue to follow by his side and stand by his side in the battlefield.


    But now, he had been massacred by Lin Ming for over half a month. Three months of his hard work had been wasted, and he wouldn''t have such a good opportunity in the Heavenly Cauldron. How could he not be crazy?


    With boundless fury, every step he took, he directly appeared in front of Lin Qi and grabbed at him.


    Lin Qi used his last bit of strength to pull Feng Lue out, but before he could use his body, a powerful force flew over from the distance, knocking Chu Jin''s arm away.


    After that, a majestic figure appeared in front of Lin Qi. Without the slightest emotion in his voice, he stiffly said, "Come with me. No one dares to touch you."


    "Alright." Lin Xing replied weakly.


    The stalwart figure grabbed his lapel, then soared into the sky. Without waiting for Chu Jin to come back to his senses, he disappeared into the horizon. His speed was so fast that it shocked everyone.


    "Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I will catch you and bring you back."


    Chu Jin roared angrily towards the sky, his head full of black wind dancing in the wind like a demonic god.

    In the main hall, the four walls were joined together, and there was not a single ray of sunlight. There were no lights inside, and everything was as black as ink.


    Listening carefully, the faint sound of breathing could be heard in the darkness.


    Suddenly, a white light lit up from the depths of the cave. In the center was a lamp wick that was burning with a bone-chilling, ice-cold flame.


    A youth''s figure flickered within the white light, enveloping him within.


    He had delicate features, handsome features, and his eyes were slightly closed. He had a resolute expression on his face. Pain flashed across his face from time to time.


    Strands of green light flowed on the surface of his skin, circulating around his body like electric arcs. They quickly came into contact with his body, broke off, and entered his pores and entered his body.


    At the same time, there was also a large amount of immortal energy in the surrounding area, squirming about in the air before fusing into the arc-like azure light, causing it to glow even brighter and more resplendently.


    Only after a long time had passed did the youth open his eyes, revealing a brand-new and deep pair of eyes.


    "The injury this time is too heavy, it will be hard to recover in a short period of time."


    Lin Qi sighed and mumbled to himself. His voice was so low that it could not be heard. His body seemed to be slightly weak, and his face was still very pale.


    Two days passed. Every day, he would swallow a bunch of miraculous medicines and use the Pulse Pushing Method to heal his wounds. However, even now, he still could not completely recover, and could only be considered to have recovered half.


    At this time, most of the external scars had healed, but the internal organs were still in pain.


    He had also encountered a difficult problem. Within his soul cave, there was a small mountain of medicinal pills that had been swallowed up. Relying on just the Pulse Pushing Technique, it was difficult for him to recover completely in a short period of time.


    In the Sky Cauldron, time was more precious than anything else. He was not willing to waste his time in vain for the sake of healing his injuries.


    However, at this moment, two rainbow-colored rings of light suddenly appeared above his head. They hung on his head, greatly shocking him.


    This seven-colored light was quite beautiful and illusory. It wasn''t very bright, but it caused the white light of the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern to tremble.


    Obviously, this seven-colored light wasn''t some sort of power within his body.


    Puff ¡­


    Just as he was puzzled, the door of the hall suddenly opened, and bright white sunlight shone in, lighting up the entire hall.


    At the entrance of the temple stood three figures under the blinding sunlight. Lin Xing''s facial expression froze for a moment. After rubbing his eyes, he lifted his eyes and sized them up.


    The three of them walked in and upon closer inspection, they saw the faces of a man and two women.


    "This is the title of a hero, meaning that you are now a true hero. As a newcomer, the progress is indeed very fast. "


    Standing at the very front was a young man. His brows were like swords, and his eyes were like stars. His stature was imposing and imposing, giving off an aura of superiority. He strode forwards with large strides, giving Lin Xing an extremely oppressive feeling.


    Behind him stood two females. Both of them had exceptional appearances akin to closing the moon and shy flowers. Especially the tall female on his left, she was unimaginably beautiful.


    Lin Xing recognized this young man. It was precisely this man that had descended from the sky and saved him in the moment of crisis before the Demon Spirit City.


    This person''s cultivation had already reached the level of the Heaven''s Perception. Clearly, he was also a Heaven Saint Master.


    Moreover, regardless if it was his tone or aura, it was filled with a king''s grandeur. Even the smallest of movements would turn into a miracle in his hands. Normal people would simply not be able to imagine it.


    The King''s Realm was definitely not a coincidence, and it was vividly explained by this person.


    "A peerless title?" Lin Xing sat cross-legged on the ground, staring at the young man with a dazed expression.


    "That''s right. The Heavenly Cauldron has a power that can easily detect everyone''s strength. After that, it will release a seven-colored glow according to their level to recognize them." "There are two seven-colored rings of light above your head, which means that you have already gained the identity of a ''hero''." The young man replied indifferently.


    Lin Xing pursed his lips, as if he understood what was going on. He then asked, "Is it an artifact spirit?"


    "Maybe." The young man said meaningfully.


    "Why did you save me?"


    At this moment, the seven-colored halo above Lin Xing''s head disappeared. He took this opportunity to change the subject and ask a very important question.


    He wasn''t related to this person in any way, so there was no reason for him to run to the Demon Spirit City and save him.


    The corner of the young man''s mouth twitched. With a somewhat helpless tone, he said, "It''s Luo Yu."


    "It''s her." Lin Xing was stunned, he did not expect this answer.


    Taking a deep breath, his breathing became much steadier. With a grateful tone, he said, "Please help me pass on my gratitude to her. I will forever remember this kindness in my heart."


    At this time, Lin Xing had already guessed where this place was and the identity of this young man.


    If his guess was correct, then this young man in front of him was most likely the leader of the World Alliance, Xiao Lin.


    This time, if she had not spoken out, I would not have acted to save you. Although I am not afraid of Chu Jin, I will leave the Heavenly Cauldron in half a month, and Chu Jing still has twenty days, an entire five days more than me. If I leave, it would be hard to guarantee that he would not take revenge on my World Alliance because of this matter. If not, please leave immediately. "


    Xiao Lin lightly said. However, his tone was extremely hard and cold.


    "I can." Lin Xing did not even blink.


    "Are you sure? Chu Jin wasn''t just a Heavenly Shou. He had a wide network of connections within the Heavenly Cauldron and was considered a close friend of many of the Heavenly Hunting Monsters. Otherwise, if you do not help me protect those five days, even if you did not die in Chu Jin''s hands, I will not let you off after we exit the Heavenly Cauldron. " Xiao Lin''s eyes were sharp like knives.


    "Do you think I have a choice? Since I''ve agreed to it, I will definitely do my best. " Lin Xing replied with a sonorous and forceful tone.


    Xiao Lin slowly nodded his head. With a flip of his hand, a token appeared out of nowhere and he threw it at Lin Qi.


    He said, "Hand over your warrant. From today onwards, you will be the World Alliance''s Vice President."


    The moment she said that, the two girls'' pretty faces slightly changed.


    He had actually given such an important position as the deputy chief to a newcomer. Wasn''t that a bit too hasty?


    Lin Qi calmly put his hand into the soul hole and then raised his head to look at Xiao Lin with a resolute expression.


    "She is Niang Niang, and also my World Alliance''s Vice Alliance Master. You should get to know her." Xiao Lin pointed to the woman on his left.


    Lin Qi nodded and smiled at the beautiful woman. He didn''t say anything and gave her a greeting.


    There must be a reason behind the person Xiao Lin had appointed. Now that this matter was settled, there was no way for her to refute it. She also threw a gentle smile at Lin Qi.


    "The one on my right is Su Qian Qian, she''s my right-hand woman. From today onwards, she will follow you. If there''s anything you don''t understand, you can ask her." Xiao Lin pointed to the woman on the left.


    Lin Qi pursed his lips and nodded.

 C172

    Su Qian''s phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, her expression a little unnatural. She was naturally unwilling to listen to Lin Qi''s orders, but this was still the will of the Alliance Master, so she did not withdraw. She could only nod and agree.


    After appointing a group of people, Xiao Xi had the intention to leave as they walked out of the hall together.


    After stepping out of the hall, Xiao Lin turned his head to look at Lin Qi and said with a smile, "You are very courageous." After stepping out of the hall, Xiao Lin turned his head and stared at Lin Qi and said with a smile, "You are very courageous.


    Lin Qi was stunned. He lowered his head and forced a smile. When he raised his head again, Xiao Xi and Niang Niang''s figures had already disappeared.


    "Miss Su, I wonder if there are any benefits in being the Vice Alliance Master?"


    Lin Qi''s gaze landed on Su Qian''s body. One sentence from her mouth was enough to cause her to stare in shock.


    "What, do you dare to ask for benefits? Don''t you think you''re out of your mind, and you should know that even TianShou may not have the qualifications to sit in our position as the deputy chief of the World Alliance, if it wasn''t for the fact that the last deputy chief left the Heavenly Cauldron and you appeared at this time, it would have been impossible for a newcomer like you to become so famous in the Heavenly Cauldron. And as long as you sit in this position, your reputation will also grow with the passing of the title of deputy chief of the World Alliance?" Aren''t these benefits enough? Do you know how many people are coveting our position as the World Alliance''s Vice President? " Su Qian went into a frenzy. He had just discovered that Lin Xing was hateful to the point of being unsatisfied.


    "So that''s the case. However, I''ve thought of all these. As far as I''m concerned, that''s not enough." Lin Qi stared at her with innocent eyes and gently shook his head.


    He really wanted to pick Lin Qi up and beat him up, so he suppressed his anger with all his might. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Our World Alliance has a total of eight halls, the two deputy chiefs are in charge of four of them, while the ones under your command are Scarlet Thunder, Fist, Dark Hall, and Blood Hall. These four halls, you will send your master to the city every five days to give out a piece of Extreme Grade Spirit Crystal.


    As he said the last sentence, Su Qian''s voice was so loud that it caused Lin Xing''s eardrums to hurt.


    "Enough, enough, this even looks like a deputy chief." Lin Qi grinned.


    "Hmph. You don''t know what''s good for you. I really don''t understand why the Alliance Master let a greedy guy like you become the Alliance Master." Su Qian''s face was full of indignation as he sat on the side of an empty space with his arms on his knees. His body was still shaking.


    Lin Xing furrowed his brows and asked, "Tell me about the World Alliance''s position within the Heavenly Cauldron. I want to know more about it."


    He suddenly said, "Our World Alliance has the overall strength of the Twelve Great World Alliance, making it into the top three without any problems. Since its inception, our total number of people has never been lower than a thousand, and there are currently more than one thousand and two hundred people, so the total number of outstanding people is thirty-five. Don''t look at the fact that our Alliance only has the chief and sister, Tian Shou, with just the two of them, who can hold up the skies. The chief is recognized as one of the most powerful experts within the Heavenly Cauldron, while the elder sister Yan Niang is also a member of the same rank as the Battle Alliance''s Heavenly Deer." How about it, do you think that you''ve picked up a treasure as the deputy chief? Do you have the feeling of standing up and rising above the masses after so many days of being handed over to you as the commander of these freaks? "


    After saying the last two sentences, Su Qian turned her beautiful face to the side and shook her head.


    However, Lin Xing''s answer made her fly into a rage.


    He said, "No."


    "Hmph. Just be satisfied. I swear. You are the person who can act the best in my eyes. Truly, your face is thicker than the walls of our main city." Su Qian was indignant.


    Lin Qi bitterly smiled, rubbed his nose and said, "After all, I am now the deputy chief, I will trouble you to give me some face, where is your face now?"


    Let me tell you, not only am I unconvinced of your appointment as the deputy chief of the Alliance, but even the elites of your subordinate halls will not be convinced of your strength. You should know that with your strength, even if you kill hundreds of Qi warriors by yourself, you are not qualified to sit in this seat. Su Qian coldly ridiculed him, not leaving even the slightest bit of face for Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi''s expression gradually became cold as he berated: "Enough, you should restrain yourself. If you don''t want to admit defeat, then go and find Xiao Lin. Let me ask you, do you dare?" If you do not dare, then shut up. "


    Su Qian was at a loss for words. His face turned from red to white, and he became uncertain, but he still said in a domineering manner: "Alright, I won''t say anymore, and I''ll give you some face. How about this, I''ll go and invite the hall masters of the four branch halls to pay my respects to you, and let them recognize you as the newly appointed deputy chief."


    Lin Xing replied solemnly, "No need. In two days, I will personally go find them." If they don''t accept it, I have a way to convince them, so you don''t have to worry about it. "


    Su Qian''s face broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly changed the topic of his conversation, turned a hundred and eighty degrees, and sighed. He gently said, "I hope so. I can tell that the Alliance Master thinks of you as her successor. I hope you don''t disappoint him." As for those Palace Masters, if they do not agree with you, I will help you take care of them. "


    He understood that her attitude was entirely dependent on Xiao Lin. She was helping him to clear out the obstacles, which meant that she was helping Xiao Lin move out of the way of the World Alliance, allowing the road to be even smoother.


    It could be seen that she was also a spicy and gentle woman. Even if her words were a bit tricky, she was still someone who understood the general situation.


    "Thank you, but I really don''t need your help. If I don''t even have this bit of ability, then I''m not worthy to sit in the position of deputy chief." Lin Xing rejected her good intentions.


    "Alright, I''ll always be by your side during this period of time. If you need anything, just tell me." With that, Su Qian turned around and left.


    Lin Qi gazed at her back for a while, then pondered for a long time. He stood up, walked out of the great hall, and headed towards the main road of the city.


    Right now, he urgently needed to heal his injuries. The effect of just relying on the Pulse Pushing Technique wasn''t too great. It would be difficult to recover completely in less than half a month.


    What he needed the most now was elixirs. He remembered that when he was rescued by Xiao Ting, he passed by the main city road and there were many people there who set up stalls to sell elixirs, elixirs, and rare treasures.


    Currently, what he lacked the most were top grade spirit crystals. He should be able to obtain some and buy some spirit medicine to help his injuries recover.

 C173

    The Heaven Cauldron had 12 major world alliances and 12 main cities. Lin Xing had arrived at the main road leading to the main city of the World Alliance.


    He raised his eyes to look at the city that had been left behind since the ancient times. He glanced at the completely new buildings and felt a lot better. Following the rise and fall of the buildings in the city, he felt a lot better.


    Whether it was the aura, or the area it covered, it was obviously incomparable to that of the city.


    A thick ancient aura pervaded the air, making one feel as if they were visiting the ancient gods.


    Taking a few steps on the city road, Lin Qi slowed down his pace, his expression becoming extremely strange.


    He noticed that the city road was bustling with noise and excitement. There were people everywhere, and although it couldn''t be said that they were moving shoulder to shoulder, it could be said that there was an endless stream of people flowing in.


    According to Lin Qi''s knowledge, there were only 200 people in the main city. When he just took two steps forward, he saw far more than 200 faces. Moreover, there was a huge crowd gathered in front of him.


    Clearly, there were many people here who were not part of the World Alliance.


    He had discovered something that puzzled him. Sword immortals, which were rarely seen, were now appearing in the Crown Prince City. Most of the cultivators in this city were Sword Immortals.


    Lin Qi shook his head, not bothering to ask about these useless things. He walked up to a stall and bought all of the elixirs, regardless of their effects. He didn''t even bother greeting the stall owner as he stored them all into his soul cave.


    The owner of the stall was a man named Qi Shi. When he saw Lin Xing''s actions, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.


    "I respect you for being a talented person, so I calmly do business with you. However, don''t not know what''s good for you. This is a capital city, and if you dare to forcefully take it away, I guarantee that you will spit it out." The stall owner was a little angry, and his face was gloomy.


    Lin Qi pursed his lips, and said with an ''oh''. With a dull expression, he said: "Are you afraid that I won''t give you the money? "Then name a price, I only need to bear the price." I will never ask for a price. "


    The stall owner was stunned. He touched his forehead and said, "Fifty top-grade spirit crystals."


    Hearing this, Lin Qi pondered for a moment and made a decision. He waved his sleeves and fifty top grade spirit crystals appeared in front of the booth owner.


    Then he turned and walked away without looking back.


    He had only taken two steps when the owner of the stall behind him continuously expressed his gratitude.


    Using fifty spirit crystals to buy these elixirs was already considered expensive. How could Lin Xing not know about this?


    Right now, he only wanted to recover from his injuries, so he didn''t want to argue, so he didn''t bargain. Besides, although he could absorb spirit crystals, they were still external items, so his injuries were not important.


    Following that, he swept through four more stalls and threw in a pile of Spirit Crystals. Without caring about the owner''s reaction, he packed a pile of Elixirs and left without looking back.


    "Brother Ren, please wait."


    At this moment, a friendly voice came from Lin Qi''s side. Turning around, he saw a vendor waving at him.


    When his gaze landed on the booth in front of him, he did not see any Spirit Dans or Spirit Medicines, so he did not stay there any longer. He turned around and continued to walk forward.


    "Those good things might not necessarily be on the surface. Brother Ren, do you not want to see them?" The voice resounded once again.


    These words fell into Lin Xing''s ears, causing his heart to tremble. The stall owner''s words were very reasonable. Because of his impatience, he had forgotten about this fact.


    He turned around and walked towards the booth owner. Although the booth owner had intentionally restrained his aura, Lin Xing was still able to detect the fluctuating aura from his body.


    "Why not take it out and have a look? The price is negotiable."


    Hearing this, the stall owner did not make any movements. He frowned and asked, "My dear brother, you must have been hurt quite badly, right?"


    The corner of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched. Just now, he had made a bold and generous move, and had even bought elixirs. This person must have taken a fancy to all of them.


    He calmly said, "Your curiosity is too great. Take out the elixirs. If it''s suitable for me, you can decide on the price."


    "Good, this brother is indeed a straightforward person." As he laughed, he took out a stalk of elixir from the soul hole.


    This was a flower with a strange shape, but it seemed to be budding. It had just sprouted, and its life force was extremely exuberant as a fragrance wafted in the air.


    Lin Qi took in a deep breath of the fragrant scent emitted by the flower. His entire body was overflowing with an indescribable feeling, and he could not help but be moved.


    "Brother Ren, how is it? These Seven Immortal Flowers can enter your eyes? " The stall owner asked Lin Qi with a smile on his face.


    "Seven Immortal Flowers!" Lin Xing relaxed his brows and went straight to the point. "Name your price."


    The stall owner smiled and stretched out two fingers.


    "Two hundred top grade spirit crystals?"


    When Lin Qi saw this, his eyebrows scrunched together. This price was way too high, beyond what he could bear.


    Of course, this didn''t mean that Lin Xing couldn''t afford these two hundred top quality spirit crystals. In fact, he could easily buy ten of these so-called Seven Immortal Flowers, but they clearly weren''t worth that price.


    "That''s right. If you can''t buy it then you will suffer. If you can''t buy it then you will be tricked. My Seven Immortal Flowers are extraordinary. No matter how serious your injuries are, as long as you swallow them, you will definitely be full of energy." If it doesn''t work, I will double return it. Just put your heart in your stomach. " The booth owner''s mouth was filled with a bunch of good words.


    At this moment, a young man walked over with a sword in his hand. He was looking at this scene with a face full of smiles.


    "Is that so?" Lin Qi narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment. Then, he decisively threw the two hundred top grade spirit crystals on the ground. The appearance of so many glowing spirit crystals immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    The stall owner was also stunned. He didn''t expect this young man to be so wealthy.


    However, the following words immediately caused the smile on his face to vanish and his expression to darken.


    "If it doesn''t work, I don''t need your compensation. I only want your head."


    With a grunt, the stall owner kept the two hundred spirit crystals, while Lin Xing also stored the Seven Immortal Flowers into his soul cave.


    At this moment, the young man holding the sword who was already at the side spoke, "Goldruler, you are reaping what you sow. Today, you finally met a tough opponent."


    "These Seven Immortal Flowers were obtained when the golden ruler first arrived at the Heavenly Cauldron, but he never used them. However, the effects of these flowers are indeed as he said, no matter how serious the injuries, they can be recovered in a short period of time."


    "Hallmaster, you don''t have to speak up for me. His two hundred top grade spirit crystal flowers are not a loss, he would have found out sooner or later. If I didn''t want to leave the Heavenly Cauldron and bring out more spirit crystals, I definitely wouldn''t sell these Seven Immortal Flowers." The vendor spoke in a displeased tone.

 C174

    Lin Qi was silent and no longer said anything. He wanted to leave with the Seven Immortal Flowers, but was stopped by the young man with the sword in his hand.


    "Is brother a member of our World Alliance?" "You look like you''ve just stepped into the ranks of the best, but the most important thing is that you''re actually a sword immortal. Haha, what a coincidence. Are you also a member of the Heavenly Sword Country?" The young man talked a lot.


    Lin Qi frowned as he thought about it. "Yes, I''ve just become an outstanding individual not too long ago. I wonder what is this'' Heavenly Sword ''you''re talking about?" Even though I am a sword immortal, I am not a member of the Heavenly Sword Mountain as you have said. "


    He had concealed his identity as the deputy chief, because once this identity was revealed, it would definitely cause a huge commotion in the main city.


    "I am the hall master of the Dragon Seizing Palace, He Fei. The golden ruler which I sold to you earlier for the Seven Immortal Flowers is also one of the members of the Dragon Seizing Palace." I am also a sword immortal, and today is the day for the gathering of the members of the Sword Land. The venue for this is in our capital, and you are also a sword immortal. He Fei explained.


    "The Land of the Sword? "No wonder there are so many Sword Immortals in the main city today." Lin Xing frowned, but then felt relieved.


    The Dragon Seizing Palace was a branch palace under the command of Niang Niang. Regarding this point, Lin Xing was very clear about it.


    The young man, He Fei, held his sword and replied, "The Heavenly Cauldron is an organization that can be passed down from generation to generation, just like the other World Confederations. The leader is called Tian Tou, and as long as he is a sword immortal, he is qualified to join this organization. I wonder if you are interested?"


    Lin Xing muttered to himself for a while before he lifted his head and pouted, "Can you bring me to see the scene of the sword immortal gathering?"


    "Of course you can. As long as you are a sword immortal, regardless of whether you are a member of us or not, you can go visit them. There''s no time to lose. I''ll take you there right now." I heard that there are a lot of outstanding people from the various World Alliance here today. " He Fei''s face was filled with joy. As he said this, he pulled Lin Xing''s wrist away, walking towards the depths of the city, leaving behind a stupefied golden ruler. This familiar speed was way too fast.


    Along the way, Lin Qi scanned the crowd and asked with a frown, "The outer sect strictly forbids people from entering our World Alliance, but it doesn''t seem right for people from the outer sect to enter here now, right?"


    The question he asked was extremely important to him. After all, he was now the deputy-chief of the alliance, one of the top leaders of the World Alliance.


    He did not think much as he explained, "The holding of the Heavenly Sword Conference on the 40th day was something that was decided long ago as to where it would be held. Of course, this was with the consent of our Alliance Master, otherwise, it would be impossible for the Sword Immortals of the Outer Alliance to step foot in here. Today is the release day, and not only the Sword Immortals can enter, but the other cultivators can also take this opportunity to come to our Crown Prince City to auction some treasures or make trades."


    "Oh, so that''s how it is. I believe the name ''Heavenly Cauldron'' should be very famous for its name." Lin Qi nodded his head and stopped talking about that topic.


    "That''s more than that! I won''t tell you who the leader of the Heavenly Sword Mountain is. Do you know how speechless one of the Three Great Leaders of the Battle God Tribe is? He is also a member of our Sword Land. " He Fei made a riddle and smiled mysteriously.


    Lin Qi was visibly moved. The power a sword immortal wielded in the Heavenly Cauldron was no less than that of any World Alliance.


    Furthermore, regardless of which World Alliance it was, as long as one was a sword immortal, they could join it.


    To put it more bluntly, its members had infiltrated the various World Alliance alliances.


    Thus, no one dared to move.


    While the two of them were talking, they unknowingly arrived at a place filled with people. In front of them was a forest of maple leaves. The red maple leaves were swaying in the breeze, scattering everywhere.


    There were stone tables piled up there and round stone chairs were placed horizontally beside them. At this moment, many people were already seated.


    In the Maple Forest, there were currently two people sparring between sword techniques. There, sword Qi continued to fly out as sword intent filled the air.


    Lin Xin swept his eyes over the crowd. There were about fifty people here, seven or eight of them looking outstanding. There was no Tianshou, but it was not certain that they were hiding their cultivation bases.

    Lin Qi was led by He Fei to a stone table and sat down. At the table beside him were two young men and a woman. They were familiar with He Fei and greeted each other.


    Lin Xing''s gaze stopped on the faces of everyone around him. He quickly counted about fifty people, all of them sword immortals. Their sword intent was astonishing, and as it mixed together, it caused the surrounding space to constantly emit buzzing sounds, which were especially ear-piercing.


    They were both sword immortals and freaks of the Heavenly Cauldron. They were the strongest among the younger generation in their sects, and none of them were convinced by the other. Therefore, it was inevitable that there would be arguments when exchanging insights into the sword.


    As for the Maple Forest, it was the arena. If anyone was unwilling, they could go on stage and challenge them. They could only nod their heads and not go overboard.


    Even if you lose, no one will laugh at you. In fact, you will even be able to receive the guidance of a supreme sword immortal.


    "Hall Master He, is this friend a new recruit of your Hall?"


    At this moment, the lady sitting at the same table, who was staring at Lin Qi, sensed his outstanding aura. Her eyes couldn''t help but light up as she placed her sleeves under her chin and asked He Fei in a soft voice.


    I, the Sword Immortal, am truly pitiful, and I don''t even have many Scholars. If I can recruit this friend into the palace, that would be great, but to be honest, I met him in the city. Seeing that his bones are extraordinary, I brought him here. He Fei laughed bitterly.


    Sword immortals were especially adept at fighting those above them and could not be underestimated. He Fei was a sword immortal, so he naturally knew about this; no matter which hall one was in, a sword immortal was someone on equal footing with the Vice Hall Master.


    "So that''s how it is. So this friend here is a member of our World Alliance?" The beautiful woman asked in surprise.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth twitched as a strange smile appeared on it. He replied, "That''s right, I just entered the World Alliance not long ago and am currently working under Su Qian."


    "Oh? So this brother is actually Miss Su''s person.


    When he heard Su Qian''s name, He Fei''s and the beautiful woman''s eyes immediately lit up, including the two young men sitting at the same table.


    Lin Qi touched his chin and his expression turned cold. Su Qian''s name seemed to be rather big. After she said her name, the voices of these people clearly changed.


    "Brother He, don''t you want to introduce the three of them to me?"


    Lin Qi saw He Fei and wanted to ask more questions. Without guessing, he already knew that there was something related to Su Qian. He made the first move and quickly covered He Fei''s mouth.


    He Fei was a little stunned, but quickly came back to his senses. He patted his head and said, "Look, look. Brother, I am truly sorry. "


    "What, Hallmaster He, are you still thinking about Miss Su?" The beautiful woman let out a "pfft" sound and covered her mouth as she laughed.


    As she read out the name of the one she loved in front of everyone, even the usually calm He Fei felt embarrassed and his face turned red.


    Lin Qi wiped away his sweat as he recalled Su Qian''s forceful personality. He looked at He Fei and could not help but shiver.


    He Fei shook his head as his mind left Su Qian''s emotions. Pointing to the beautiful lady, he introduced her to Lin Xing, "She is our World Alliance''s third beauty, Hall Master Qin Xiao of the Hall of Blood."


    "Hall Master Xue?" The corners of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched for a moment. It was obvious that he had not expected this woman''s identity.


    In that case, wasn''t that a person under his command? They could not help but deliberately size up Qin Xiao. They wanted to see through her personality in secret so that they could control her in the future.


    Lin Xing smiled and asked with a frown, "Miss Qin is so beautiful, yet she is only ranked third in our World Alliance. That seems a little inappropriate."


    Hearing that, Qin Xiao gave Lin Xing a coquettish look. Her cold and elegant face was flushed red, and her heart was even sweeter than if she had eaten a sweet jujube.


    "Haha, what you just said makes sense. The beauty of Hall Master Qin is outstanding in the entire Heavenly Cauldron. However, in our World Alliance, he is only ranked third. Since you are a subordinate to Shallow, you must have seen her. What do you think about her beauty? " He Fei held his lower lip with his teeth as he laughed out loud.


    Qin Xiao rolled her eyes at him, but she could not retort. With Su Qian around, she could only be third.


    "Miss Su?" Lin Qi revealed a strange smile. He looked at He Fei and said, "How is Miss Su? Brother He, you should know this better than I do."


    Then, his eyes lit up as he asked, "The one in first place is the Oblivion Realm?"


    "That''s right, could it be that this brother has also seen the Vice Alliance Master before? "Not only is the deputy chief extremely beautiful, but she is also one of the top ten beauties of the Heavenly Cauldron, and one of the strongest in cultivation. She is the second heavyweight of our World Alliance, and if any of you have any ulterior motives, it would be best for you to give up as soon as possible. He Fei thought about many things and advised sincerely.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi helplessly smiled, but he did not refute him, treating it as a warning to him.


    He Fei then introduced the two youths sitting at the same table to Lin Xing. Both of them worked in the Star Dance World Alliance and were famous Sword Immortals of the Star Dance World Alliance.


    Now that it was about the Stardance World Alliance, naturally, that peerless beauty, Ji Beast, was also dragged out as well. She was one of the ten beauties of the Heavenly Cauldron, and was in no way inferior to Mother Yan.


    Lin Qi had the good fortune to have met this girl before. Regardless of her appearance, just her charm alone was comparable to that of the little brat. She could be said to be a rare sight in this world.


    The topic had always been about the beautiful ladies of the Heaven Cauldron group. Qin Xiao''s expression was naturally unsightly. He remained stiff, so angry that she stomped her feet on the ground twice.


    "Brother He, as you said just now, those girls aren''t something we can control. They''re too far away from us, so it''s better to not talk about them. Let''s continue watching the battle under the maple leaf." Lin Xing helped Qin Xiao out and immediately won the latter''s goodwill.


    Lin Qi smiled at her and blinked a few times. His smile was very profound.


    Qin Xiao''s face blushed slightly as she scoffed shyly. She hurriedly lowered her head, afraid to meet Lin Xing''s gaze.


    Lin Qi stared at her with a naked expression, making her feel like she was looking at a transparent person, her face full of shyness.

 C176

    A gentle breeze blew and a red glow appeared. Under the Maple Forest, leaves fluttered about. The two layers of sword intents formed a center and began to spread out in all directions. The sword Qis even swirled incessantly.


    Both swords pierced through the void as sword qi gushed out. The force of the impact was extremely shocking.


    At that moment, there were two young sword immortals sparring beneath the Maple Forest.


    Although it was a spar, they had all used their full strength. In order to defeat the other party, they had all taken advantage of the opportunity to stand proud in the Heavenly Cauldron. They did not hesitate to use their trump cards. They were extremely vicious.


    "Not good, not good, this is too exaggerated, its attack power is average."


    "That''s right. That sword skill looks vicious, but its speed is too slow. The opponent would easily dodge it."


    "Hmph. The other one is even more difficult. The sword hasn''t rusted, but people are dull. If it''s a fight against a monster with a broken body, breaking through the opponent''s body will be difficult."


    The two were sparring under the maple leaves forest, and the group of people shook their heads and sighed as they watched.


    "They''re right, there''s clearly a flaw in their sword skills." Qin Xiao blinked.


    "Brother, look at their sword skills. Is there anything wrong with that?" He Fei suddenly asked Lin Xing, wanting to use this opportunity to test out the depth of his Sword Truth.


    He smiled and said, "It''s not that the sword skills are inappropriate, it''s just that the two of them did not think of a way to make up for it. One of them is boastful, while the other is sharp and slow, these are just the sword skills they practice, on the surface, they are just moves. If you look carefully, the boastful person is just a boastful sword skill, but his footsteps are very steady and calm, so he has been defending all this time. Although the person with the slowest attack was only attacking, he was holding the sword edge close to his body most of the time, which meant that the sword skills he cultivated were good at defense and not attacks.


    Hearing this, the four people at the table were stunned for a moment before their expressions changed slightly, as if they had thought of something. He Fei''s eyes also widened immediately.


    Then, the five of them looked back at the Maple Forest.


    After fighting for a long time, the two still hadn''t been able to determine who would be the winner. The spectators were all worried for them, and in the end, the match ended in a draw.


    Both of them had reversed their sword techniques and were unable to unleash the power they should have.


    Logically speaking, it was impossible for these two Heavenly Cauldron Monsters to make such a low level mistake. In truth, it was just their minds acting up, the two of them were both Heavenly Cauldron Monsters, and they both had some respect for each other. As they saw the fierce attacks of the other, they no longer looked for weaknesses, and only used their strongest sword skills to win with a single slash.


    However, the reality was very hard. Even though they were freaks of the Heavenly Cauldron, they still suffered a tumble because of it.


    Lin Xing suddenly remembered something. His eyes deliberately scanned his surroundings as he asked He Fei, "Brother He, why didn''t Tianshou appear in the Sword Association?"


    Brother Lin, you might not know this, but in the past, when the Sword Nations held sword festivals, the head of the continent would have come personally, but this time, because the location of the event is in our capital, our chief has always been at odds with the head of the continent. Although we agreed to hold the event in the capital, we strictly forbade the Heavenly Hunters to enter. He Fei replied.


    He then asked, "Is Lin Xing interested in joining the Sword Land? In the future, once we exit the Heavenly Cauldron, as long as we announce that you are from the Heavenly Sword Mountain, any sword sect would give you some face.


    Lin Qi shook his head and firmly refused. For the time being, he did not have this thought. A vice president was enough for him to worry about. How could he be distracted by something like this?


    Seeing this, He Fei did not try to persuade him anymore. He thought to himself that Lin Xing should not be knowledgeable about the Heavenly Cauldron. The longer he stayed in the Heavenly Cauldron, the more he would know about the terrifying power and benefits of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    After the two of them left the Maple Leaf Forest, a few more groups of people appeared. As the seven or eight people sipped their tea, they pointed to the surroundings.


    At this time, it was finally the turn for a hero to step onto the stage. This was a youth with an immortal sword on his back that was even longer than his body. His words were very arrogant, and the moment he stepped onto the stage, the entire audience quieted down.


    "He is Ling Jue, one of the members of the First World Alliance. His swordsmanship was taught by Yue Tou, and he fought against Zhan Tian without a doubt. He was only defeated after receiving three sword strikes from Zhan Tian." He Fei stared at the young man with the long sword and his pupils slightly contracted as he spoke with a serious tone.


    When these words were spoken, everyone close to him heard it. Immediately, a large number of people sucked in a breath of cold air.


    The entire audience was moved.


    There was no need to introduce the name of this young man in front of everyone. He was one of the three giants of Battling Heavens, a genuine Tianshou, and the king of the younger generation of Battling Heavens brotherhood. Yet, this young man Ling Jue was able to receive three of his strikes with his outstanding strength.


    When the longsword teenager noticed this position and saw the reverence on the faces of these Qi warriors, he disdainfully sneered at them.


    "You don''t have a clear reputation, you''re no different from a newbie. This opportunity to challenge him is of no different to you. As long as you defeat him, your reputation within the Heavenly Cauldron will rise rapidly." Qin Xiao looked at Lin Xing and teased him.


    Qin Xiao actually had good intentions. This was an opportunity to make a name for herself. She had offered to give this opportunity to Lin Xing because she had a favorable impression of him.


    Even if he lost, it wouldn''t be a big deal. Losing to Ling Yan wouldn''t be a disgrace. Even if he lost, his status would skyrocket and he would still have a chance at a higher position in the World Alliance.


    With her suggestion, the three geniuses at her table, who were ready to make a move, immediately suppressed the restlessness in their hearts.


    "Thank you for your kind intentions Miss Qin. However, I only came here to see the sword immortals of the various sects in this world. I have no other thoughts, so I won''t go up." Lin Qi tactfully refused.


    Not to mention the fact that he was injured, even at his peak strength, he wouldn''t go up and challenge others to a fight. He didn''t even need something as exaggerated as fame.


    In fact, his reputation was not low in the Heavenly Cauldron. Just now when he was walking through the city, he could hear some people discussing Lin Xing.


    With his strength alone, he had slaughtered over a hundred of the Demonic Spirit Hall''s Qi Scholars. His vicious name had already spread to every corner of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "Alright then, I''ll go meet him. I also want to see what ability this sword immortal from the World Alliance has to block three sword strikes without any words." Qin Xiao said as he turned around and walked into the Maple Leaf Forest.


    The three people at the table looked at each other and could not help but smile. They did not snatch the opportunity away from Qin Xiao.


    Lin Xing calmed himself down and focused his attention on the Maple Leaf Forest. His gaze, however, did not even glance at Ling Yan, as it never left Qin Xiao''s body.


    In the future, if nothing went wrong, this cold beauty would become his most trusted confidante. It was imperative for him to get to know her now.


    "Such a beautiful woman. It would be a pity if she was injured."


    When Ling Yan saw Qin Xiao appear on stage, his eyes shone with a strange light as he looked over Qin Xiao''s entire body.


    "Really?" You might as well give it a try. " Qin Xiao sneered with a straight face.


    "Haha, interesting. Let''s give it a try."


    Ling Jue''s mind shook, and his entire body was filled with precious light. This made him shine even brighter, and he was like a peerless youth that attracted the attention of tens of thousands.


    CHI *


    Suddenly, a streak of cold light flashed through the air, coming from Ling Yan''s soul cave.


    Her words were pleasant to the ears, but the way she struck out was unambiguous. A cold beam shot out as her target was Qin Xiao.


    Then he pulled out the celestial sword from his back and quickly followed the ray of cold light.


    Qin Xiao had already expected this. He took out a long sword from his soul hole and placed it in front of his chest. With a "Puchi" sound, the cold light shot onto it, causing sparks to fly out.


    Turning the sword over, she sent the cold light flying with a flick of her wrist.


    The cold light in the surroundings suddenly lost its brilliance, revealing a short sword. At this moment, Ling Yan rushed forward and grasped his short sword. The long sword in his hand viciously smashed down at Qin Xiao.


    "I didn''t expect this kid to be so sinister." He Fei coldly snorted.


    Lin Qi calmly gazed at the scene before him.


    Since Qin Xiao was able to sit in the position of Palace Lord, he was obviously no pushover. Regardless of whether it was in terms of scheming or strength, he had far surpassed ordinary people. He had already anticipated Ling Xiao''s attack.


    At some point, a dagger had appeared in her left hand, and she immediately placed it on top of her head, easily blocking Ling Jue''s sword.

 C177

    The exchange of pointers between the two sword immortals naturally attracted the attention of everyone. Even Lin Xing was no exception as he watched the battle wholeheartedly.


    This time, the other spectators shut their mouths and did not point anymore at them. The two who fought were of the same strength as them, and with their eyesight, it was extremely difficult to find a flaw. Even if they did find one, they would not say it out loud and they would offend others.


    Only Heaven''s Hunter would dare to do such a thing. He would not only not offend the other party, but he would also receive the gratitude of the other party.


    A Heaven Ranked monster was beyond the imagination of a human, whether it was in terms of eyesight or strength.


    That was the real point, not a deliberate attempt to tell everyone about their weaknesses.


    The battle between Ling Yan and Qin Xiao soon reached its climax. The two of them had already used all their strength, each wielding a long sword and a short sword. Each sword strike dealt a ton of damage.


    Ling Jue''s Sword Truth was extraordinary. Although he was still young, his sword skills had already reached perfection.


    As for that Qin Xiao, he was not an ordinary person. His sword beam was extremely sharp, as though it could shatter a mountain. His offensive strength was astonishing.


    They were all from great sword immortal sects and had cultivated their sword arts since a young age. Whether it was their sword intent or sword techniques, they were all incomparable to those Qi warriors from before.


    Even the elites were stubbornly staring at the two figures, wanting to figure out a few things from them in order to make up for their shortcomings.


    "Hallmaster Qin''s sword skills have increased a lot compared to before. And there''s also that Ling Yan. It''s no wonder he was able to receive the three strikes of Wordless Sword. He really lives up to his reputation."


    He Fei couldn''t help but exclaim in admiration as he stared at the battle between the two of them.


    Lin Qi''s gaze was sharp as he slowly nodded his head. The sword skills of the two of them did not even reveal a single flaw. As they attacked, they also protected themselves very well, making it difficult for the opponent to find any loopholes.


    Suddenly, his gaze focused, his pupils slightly contracted, and then he smiled.


    Just now, he discovered that both of them had revealed flaws at the same time, but his opponents were unable to find them. The spectators in the surroundings similarly didn''t notice this.


    Suddenly, his gaze shifted to a woman. She had a very ordinary appearance, and her strength was also very ordinary. Amongst the many Qi warriors, she was very inconspicuous.


    However, he had just noticed that the woman''s pupils had mutated. It was as if there were two sharp swords hidden in the depths, and they were incomparably sharp, causing him to be unable to help from feeling shocked in his heart.


    The woman had obviously noticed him, and smiled at him through the crowd. Then she turned her head back and pretended that nothing had happened.


    "Brother He, do you recognize that Qi Shi?" Lin Qi patted He Fei''s right arm and glanced at the woman.


    He Fei followed his gaze and shook his head gently. "I don''t know him. Why?" "Brother has his own thoughts about her."


    "Brother He misunderstood. I felt the sword intent exuded by that person and was slightly surprised, so I asked." Lin Xing shook his head.


    "Oh." He Fei did not think much and continued to turn his head, watching the battle under the maple leaves.


    It was obvious that the woman from earlier had also seen through the flaws that Qin Xiao and Ling Yan had revealed, but how did a strange person like her manage to do it?


    The reason why Lin Xing was able to notice it was all because he had practiced the Saber Replenishing Sword Technique. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been able to see through it just by relying on his superior sight.


    "Ye Feihua once said that the sword pupils are the true essence of the path of the sword. They are the most powerful divine tools that sword immortals dream of, but those seemingly ordinary eyes contain the supreme mysteries of the path of the sword." Lin Qi secretly thought to himself as he sized up the girl a few more times and secretly took note of her appearance in his heart.


    If his guess was right, that woman definitely had the Sword Eyes.


    This was simply an appalling matter. Possessing the Sword Eyes meant possessing the unparalleled profoundness of the way of the sword.


    This girl might just be a newcomer, but her reputation was not very well-known. In the future, she would definitely make a name for herself in the Heavenly Cauldron.


    At that time, Lin Qi would naturally know who she was.


    Under the Maple Forest, sword light flashed, and two figures criss-crossed each other. They fought for a long time, but the outcome was still uncertain.


    Neither of them were willing to give up and neither of them had the intention of giving up. In the end, they were truly exhausted, so they simultaneously put down the long short sword in their hands and silently retreated.


    Qin Xiao was expressionless. His eyes were especially solemn as he remained silent.


    Ling Yan was also no longer as arrogant as before, and his expression was exceptionally strict. He let out two large breaths, and actually turned around and walked out of the city.


    Anyone could see that during the exchange between the two earlier, they both seemed to have comprehended something, as if they''d touched a trace of something related to the way of the sword.


    After Qin Xiao sat down, He Fei greeted him twice. However, Qin Xiao ignored him.


    Every time you execute the sword skill, it will reveal a flaw. More directly, if you use brute force to clash with it, you will definitely be defeated, and your sword will not be sharp enough. It will seem powerful, but it will not be sharp enough.


    Qin Xiao suddenly shuddered. Just as she came back to her senses, she saw that Lin Xing''s figure had already appeared in the distance.


    If Qin Xiao was not one of Lin Xing''s subordinates, Lin Xing would not even bother reminding her. As for whether she listened or not, that was her problem.


    "Brother, brother, wait for me to leave." As He Fei shouted, he ran to catch up.


    Lin Xing stopped in his tracks and stared at him, saying, "Brother He is also the master of this place. What is the purpose of following me in if you do not stay here to preside over this sword gathering?"


    "Sigh, Hallmaster Qin is still here. She will take care of this matter. I want to follow you to visit the Main Hall." At the end of his sentence, He Fei had an awkward expression as he giggled.


    Lin Xing took the hint, laughed and walked back with He Fei.


    On the way back, He Fei asked Lin Xing''s name. Lin Xing didn''t tell him his name, but rather told him to ask Su Qian Qian himself.


    Lin Qi brought He Fei directly to the main hall where he currently resided. The moment he pushed open the bronze door, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.


    "Vice ¡­" Su Qian seemed to be searching for him as he walked out of the great hall and bumped into him.


    Lin Qi placed his index finger on his lips and made a silent gesture. Su Qian also noticed someone following them and immediately understood what was going on.


    But when he clearly saw He Fei''s appearance, his face immediately turned dark and he let out a low growl as he wiped off his sweat.


    "Why did you bring him here?"


    Saying that, Su Qian walked around Lin Qi and He Fei and quickly left the hall.


    "Sigh, shallow."


    He Fei''s face was full of embarrassment as he smiled at Lin Xing.


    Then, he anxiously chased after Su Qian with a speed that was even faster than lightning, shouting as he ran.


    Laughing lightly, Lin Qi closed the door and walked up the stairs to the high platform within the hall. He sat down cross-legged.


    After he left, Su Qian very carefully cleaned up this place. There were many places with Night Pearls, and now even if the door to the hall was closed, it would no longer appear dark.

 C178

    Lin Qi sat upright and took out all the elixirs he bought in the city and piled them up in a small mountain before him.


    The most eye-catching of them all was the Seven Immortal Flowers. They emitted spiritual light, and completely covered up the brilliance emitted by all the other precious medicines.


    Below, Lin Xing began to heal himself. With so many pills supporting him, he did not believe he would not be able to recover.


    Today, he had to return to his peak state. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to deal with the following matters.


    He put the Seven Immortal Flowers aside and waited for them to be consumed. He would first refine the other spiritual medicines and then use the Pulse Pushing Method to fully display the medicinal properties.


    Layers of green light circulated around his body as his entire body emitted immortal light. Although the Pulse Pushing Method was an immortal gate technique, it was relatively low level and easy to learn. Right now, it could only help heal his injuries.


    The main force would still need to rely on the mountain of spirit medicine in front of them.


    Lin Qi took a deep breath, grabbed a handful of elixirs from the pile, and stuffed it into his mouth. He then directly chewed it and with the power of the Pulse Pushing Method, it immediately turned into a stream of energy that overflowed his entire spiritual veins.


    There were refined pills and spiritual medicines with roots. Their effects were varied, Lin Xing didn''t care about them at all. Being able to heal a wound was a good thing.


    During the battle at the Demon Spirit City, his injuries were too severe and he had never been injured like this before. He almost activated his foundation, and this kind of injury absolutely could not be delayed. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    He refined a pile and grabbed another handful, until he finished swallowing all of the spiritual medicines in front of him that were like a small mountain.


    Fortunately, he had the Ancient God''s physique and his meridians were spacious. If it were a normal person, they would definitely be blown up by the violent medicinal properties of the medicine.


    An unknown amount of time passed by, and the spirit medicine before him was completely swept away, swallowed, and refined into nothingness.


    However, the results were minimal, only slightly better than before.


    His entire body was filled with heat. His skin was red and his back was glowing red. This was the energy brought about by the medicine, and it was impossible to absorb. It was harmful, so he expelled it out of his body.


    After his body returned to normal, he grabbed the Seven Immortal Flowers. After musing for a while, his eyes were filled with expectation. Then, he decisively stuffed them into his mouth.


    The moment the Seven Immortal Flowers entered his mouth, they melted into a warm current that flowed into his internal organs and then throughout his entire body.


    After eating so many elixirs yet not getting any results, there was an indescribable feeling of disappointment in Lin Qi''s heart. At this moment, his mind suddenly jolted, and his spirit was once again brimming with vitality.


    The Seven Immortal Flower''s medicinal properties were extraordinary. It was filled with immortal energy and other pure energy. Once it spread throughout his body, it immediately caused Lin Xing to radiate with a new spirit.


    "Qian Jin didn''t lie to me. Two hundred top quality spirit crystals won''t be a loss."


    Lin Qi muttered to himself before closing his eyes, completely immersing himself in the formidable medicinal properties of the Seven Immortal Flowers.


    About an hour later, he once again opened his eyes. His pupils were sharp, as if they were sparkling with a vast sea of stars, and his mind was refreshed.


    The Seven Immortal Flowers didn''t completely heal his injuries, but they did. After all, the injuries this time were very severe and some spiritual medicines wouldn''t be able to cure them.


    Not only that, at this moment, his cultivation base seemed to have increased a bit. This was no doubt a pleasant surprise.


    Two hundred top grade spirit crystal flowers was not a loss. One had to know, for people in the Heaven Smiting Stage, even if they absorbed all two hundred top grade spirit crystals, their cultivation would not improve at all.


    Perhaps the golden ruler didn''t expect the Seven Immortal Flowers to have the ability to increase cultivation. Otherwise, they wouldn''t have been sold for two hundred top grade spirit crystals.


    Lin Qi stood up with a faint smile on his face. It was as if he had been reborn. He could not help but straighten his back.


    At this moment, Su Qian pushed open the door and walked in. His face was gloomy, as if he had suffered a great grievance. His complexion had a delicate and touching beauty.


    Raising his head to look at Lin Qi, fire seemed to spew out of his eyes, as if he wanted to eat him alive.


    But very quickly, her eyes were filled with amazement as she noticed that Lin Xing had changed. Compared to before, he seemed sharper and sharper, especially his eyes.


    Su Qian raised his head and looked at him for a long time. After a long time, he finally said angrily, "Without my permission, who told you to bring Little Fei here?" You are too rude. "


    "Without your consent? I brought him to my place, do I need your permission? " Lin Xing''s heart twitched as he replied in a serious tone.


    "Hmph. I had business with you, yet you brought him here and pestered me for more than half a day. Do you know? You, as the deputy chief, are very incompetent. " Su Qian''s expression was one of insanity. He wanted to bite someone.


    Upon hearing this, guilt welled up in Lin Qi''s heart. He sighed and said, "Miss Su, I am the one who has miscalculated this time. Please don''t take it to heart."


    "Ha, this still looks like it, but it won''t happen again." Su Qian said shallowly.


    Lin Xing nodded and asked with a frown, "Why are you looking for me? Can you tell me now?"


    "I have three things to report to you." Su Qian said shallowly.


    The first thing is related to you. Chu Jin issued a bounty for your head at the price of five thousand top grade spirit crystals. Currently, many people in the Heavenly Cauldron have gone crazy and are looking for you everywhere.


    She did not show any sympathy. As long as she did not add the World Alliance into the mix, she would not take it to heart.


    "Five thousand top grade spirit crystals?" Lin Qi was stunned. To be honest, he was a bit moved himself.


    When Su Qian saw his expression, he immediately let out a cold laugh and said, "The second matter is also related to you. At the same time, it is also related to me. "Today is the day that the four halls under your command turn in their Spirit Crystals, but this time, only the Hall of Blood handed in the two hundred top-grade Spirit Crystals, the Dark Hall and the Scarlet Thunder Palace only handed them half, fist punches are the most excessive, and they didn''t even hand over a single piece. They clearly do not put you, the deputy chief, in their eyes, so they are openly provoking me, who asked me to be arranged by the chief and stay by your side, so this matter is also related to me."


    Lin Xing''s eyes turned cold. The sword intent of the Mandate of Fear was spreading all over his body.


    Seeing that he was angered, Su Qian was also slightly angry, and said coldly: "The chief has yet to leave the Heavenly Cauldron, and they already dared to act so brazenly. Once the chief leaves, they will not be able to rebel, and at that time, our World Alliance will be in chaos.


    "Countermeasures?" How laughable, what sort of countermeasure is this? Only power is the truth. " Lin Qi sneered.


    "I heard from the people below that the Dark Hall and Crimson Thunder Hall''s Palace Masters have all gathered at the Punch Dashing Hall. The three Palace Masters might be up to something, planning on how to move you out." Su Qian said.


    Lin Qi said in a deep voice, "After you finish your third task, we will go to the Punching Hall and meet them."

    When he had ascended to the heavens, he had always played the role of someone shouting for him to be killed. All day long, he had been on the run, and now that he had entered the Heavenly Cauldron, he no longer wanted to be suppressed. He would use his strength to tell others that not everyone could bully him.


    If Chu Jin couldn''t do it, then so could the three Palace Masters under him.


    His brows furrowed and his expression became cold. He turned to Su Qian and asked, "The third matter is also related to me?"


    "No, this matter is related to all of us in the Heavenly Cauldron. The chief wants me to inform you that a large beast tide will engulf the entire Heavenly Cauldron in two days'' time." No, this is related to all of us in the Heavenly Cauldron. Su Qian said in a serious tone.


    "Alright, I understand. This time, I will go to the Punch Dashing Palace and arrange for them to prepare some matters related to the defense against the beast tide."


    As he said this, Lin Xing''s body flashed, and in the next moment he appeared below the platform. He then said "Let''s go" to Su Qian, and left the hall.


    In the process, Lin Xing asked Su Qian some secrets about the beast tide.


    According to what Su Qian said, every World Alliance had a beast plate. Whenever a beast tide was about to appear, the plate would first show signs, warning the other World Alliance members to be on their guard.


    This time, the movement of the beast plate was more than ten times more violent than usual. It almost collapsed, and this phenomenon had only occurred during the great beast tide a hundred years ago.


    Many people had heard from the elders who had once experienced the beast tide that the survival rate was extremely low. The major World Alliance had suffered heavy casualties, and not even one monster from the Heavenly Cauldron Society had survived. Ten of the old men had been killed, and a large part of the forests had been devoured, while the ancient ruins had also been irreparably damaged.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing felt a chill in his heart. He had a rough estimate.


    Then he asked Su Qian, "Where did the beast tide come from?" Are there any beast kings?


    Su Qian told him where the beast tide had come from, but no one knew. Every time the beast tide warned, everyone would hide within the city, and at that time, the beast tide would suddenly appear and attack the cities.


    There had been people following the beast tide before, and it was said that once they entered a boundless mountain range, they would suddenly disappear. Those mountains were called Qiong Qi Mountains, and they were known as the number one forbidden area of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    As for the beast kings, there were definitely some. It could be seen from the horn when the beast tide attacked and retreated.


    Listening to this, Lin Qi was amazed and amazed. Now that he was the deputy chief of the alliance, he had a very heavy responsibility. To deal with this beast tide that was rarely seen in a hundred years, he had to do his best.


    "The four branch palaces under Big Sister Yan Niang''s command have been preparing their defenses since a long time ago, so don''t let them get off your back. As long as one city is broken through by the beast tide, it would mean that two hundred people from my World Alliance will lose their lives. As the deputy chief of the Alliance now, it''s your responsibility to protect your subordinates, so I''m worried that in times of crisis, you''ll be able to run faster than anyone else." Su Qian raised a smile and blinked his eyes twice.


    "I will exhaust all my strength." Lin Xing''s heart was heavy. His tone was sonorous, like a blade or a sword.


    About the time it took for two more cups of tea to be brewed, Su Qian led Lin Qi to the front of an ancient city.


    The city gate was opened wide, and there were two Qi warriors standing at the gate. They were only vaguely able to see two figures rush over, but they didn''t react as if they were hallucinating.


    After entering the city, Lin Qi and Su Qian slowed down their pace and rushed to the main hall at a leisurely pace.


    At this moment, many people in the city were busy building city guards, preparing for the next demon beast horde that would be hard to come by in a hundred years.


    Lin Qi saw a 30-meter long crossbow, a giant axe the size of a small mountain, and a catapult made of bronze.


    Lin Qi glanced over the crowd and did not stay any longer. He followed Su Qian Qian outside the main hall.


    "Miss Su." "Why are you here?"


    Outside the main hall, Qi Shi saw Su Qian approaching and excitedly greeted him.


    "I''m here to look for your hall master." Su Qian replied coldly. Just as he was about to enter the hall with Lin Xing, that person stopped them in their tracks.


    "Miss Su, please wait here for a moment. Allow me to report to our Hall Master first." The man cupped his fists respectfully and walked into the hall.


    "You still need to report?" What was his Seven Rolling Knives? If I want to go in, does he dare to stop me? "


    Su Qian cursed out loud. His face was dark, and his expression angry as he walked forward.


    "Miss Su, please allow me to report. Otherwise, you can''t enter." That Qi Shi blocked his way again as he spoke with a bit of a helpless tone.


    "Scram ¡­"


    Su Qian raised his hand and sent a stream of divine power flying out, knocking Qi Shi ten meters away.


    She continued to walk forward. Whoever blocked her way was unlucky. Even Lin Qi couldn''t help but admire her in his heart. She was truly tyrannical.


    "Haha, I thought that whoever dared to come to my fist and charge into the hall like that, so it''s Miss Su. Please forgive me for being entangled in worldly affairs and being unable to welcome them from afar."


    Before he could approach, a candid voice rang out from the main hall.


    And then, three youths walked out from the main hall.


    One had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and his body was as thin as firewood. He was like a bamboo pole and wore a wide python robe. His body didn''t match his figure at all. He was the Dark Hall''s Palace Master, Zhu Liang.


    A burly man with a broad head and a broad brain. His face was filled with an unrestrained expression. He was the Hall Master of the Fist Hall, the Seven Rolling Knives. That voice just now had come from his mouth.


    Even when he was walking, he was facing the ground. Lin Xing inadvertently noticed that his eyes were like blades, and they were suffused with a cold light. His entire body was filled with a ferocious aura, and he was the leader of the Scarlet Thunder Hall, Han Xuan.


    Heh, the three Palace Masters are all gathered together. The two of you are not stationed in the other halls, why have you come here? There are even seven blades.


    Su Qian''s voice was extremely cold. He first glared at Zhu Liang and Han Xuan, then sneered at the seven scrolls.


    "Vice chief?"


    The three of them were astonished. Their eyes were glinting with a cold light. They shifted their gaze to Lin Qi.


    "We only recognize Zong Li as the deputy chief. Who does he think he is? How dare he be our deputy chief?"


    The three of them said in unison as they stared at Lin Qi. Their eyes were filled with hostility, especially Han Xuan, whose eyes were like a venomous snake''s.


    "Zong Li has already left. If you wish to renew your friendship with him, it won''t be too late after the appearance of the Heavenly Cauldron. Now, Lin Xing is the deputy-chief personally appointed by our Alliance Master. If you don''t agree, then go find the Alliance Master and argue with him."


    Although Su Qian''s expression was cold, he was not in a hurry. It was not easy to make them submit, so he spoke word by word.


    "What alliance master are you looking for? We don''t object to him becoming the deputy chief, but he must understand his own worth. He must not interfere with the matters of our three halls." Seven Rolling Knives said fiercely.

 C180

    "Heh, you don''t need me to intervene? I''ll trouble you to straighten that stupid head first. It''s not too late to say that again. Now that I am the deputy chief, all three halls must obey my orders. Otherwise, I will need to remove all three of you hall masters, or immediately disband all three halls and get out of the city. Where should I go? "


    At this moment, Lin Xing finally spoke. Against these three heroes, he was not only fearless but also calm and powerful.


    "What!?" Dismissed our three halls? "Kid, you really do not care about the consequences when you speak. If you have the guts, I really want to see how you dissolve it!" The three of them were astounded, but they immediately became furious.


    Even Su Qian was shocked and at a loss when he heard these words.


    He really dared to say it out loud.


    Lin Xing was too lazy to waste words with him. His eyes turned cold and his little mouth twitched as he said to the Seven Rolling Blades with a stern voice, "How about this? If you can take a move from me, how about giving you the position of deputy chief?"


    As these words were spoken, the entire hall was silent. They all had stunned expressions. The three Palace Masters regained their senses and were immediately enraged. Their dignity had been severely damaged.


    Lin Qi''s expression was scattered. He had one hand behind his back and a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth.


    Damn it, he was too arrogant. It was as if Lin Xing didn''t even put them in his eyes, and disdainful expressions could be seen everywhere he went.


    "Is that true?"


    The seven scrolls were full of malice. Their eyes were shot out with a red glow, concealing their excitement and greed. Who wouldn''t covet the position of deputy chief?


    Even though it was just a title, and the greatest benefit was only a top quality spirit crystal, this title could bring endless benefits.


    Right now, Lin Xing was shamelessly boasting, almost giving this deputy chief position to someone else. Of course, this was on the premise that he could handle this move.


    He sneered in his heart with incomparable mockery. They were both outstanding people, and he was also a veteran. If he couldn''t even take one move, then he could really use his head to smash it into the mountain.


    Su Qian quietly watched the scene in front of him. He blinked his eyes, and a strange expression appeared on his face. However, he did not say anything.


    The other two Palace Masters'' mouths quirked up in a sneer, their eyes filled with contempt as they looked at Lin Xing.


    After that, he challenged the Demon Spirit Hall and almost died. In the end, he was saved by the chief of the Xiao Alliance and then chose to serve in the World Alliance. After that, he was struck by bad luck and directly ascended to the position of the deputy chief of the alliance.


    This was his experience within the Heavenly Cauldron. After entering the Heavenly Cauldron for half a month, he was simply a new disciple.


    How could a rookie have the qualifications to control them?


    Even if he had massacred hundreds of demon spirits, he was not qualified.


    The Heavenly Cauldron Monster was especially arrogant, not to mention a peerless genius.


    "A shallow witness. His words are as good as gold." Lin Qi''s expression was serious, and his tone was extremely cold.


    "Good, make your move. I really want to know just what basis you have for showing off your strength in the Demon Spirit City."


    The Seven Rolling Knives roared, and the person at the side retreated far away.


    In a split-second, both his eyes turned bloodshot, his face contorted slightly, as an incomparable tyrannical aura gushed forth from him, soaring to the skies.


    Suddenly, the ancient godly beast''s roar came from his mouth, creating a powerful shockwave. Even cracks appeared on the ground because of it.


    "Lemon!"


    Lin Qi felt the familiar yet unfamiliar power. His heart shook as he spat out the word.


    When the surrounding people heard this, they once again probed the aura emitted by the Seven Rolling Knives, but they were all at a loss. Even Su Qian was puzzled.


    Seven-rolled Knife''s face changed slightly, and he said in surprise, "Not simple, you even know Feng Li?" I just don''t know if you can break my lime. "


    He laughed arrogantly and shot out his might, thinking that since Lin Xing knew Feng Li, he must have seen it before. Feng Li''s power was even more savage than the power of the underworld, and came from an ancient beast.


    However, reality completely exceeded his expectations. Lin Xing''s expression was as calm as ever. With a wave of his hand, a mass of godly power appeared in his palm, then he began to operate it at a steady pace.


    "Humph!" The Seven Rolling Knives gave a muffled snort, emitting a contemptuous sound.


    Clang...


    Just at that moment, the divine power in Lin Xing''s palm suddenly expanded. As it lightly brushed against the air, it emanated a surging might. Following that, a black sword tip emerged from the divine power and gradually rushed out.


    "Heaven Descending Sword!"


    Su Qian''s lips trembled slightly. At this moment, his eyes slightly narrowed. She was a cultivator with a divine technique, so she was able to recognize him with a single glance.


    This was a godly technique that he had previously used. It was incredibly powerful and was the most powerful divine technique in the Divine Arts Faction.


    However, the Heaven Descending Sword had many advantages, and it also had many weaknesses. The first was that its movement was very slow and it was very easy to dodge.


    Now that the Seven Rolling Knife was standing still on the spot, Lin Xing did not hesitate to reveal this godly spell.


    The black sword was huge, sharp and explosive. It was even more powerful than a supreme being''s attack. It issued a humming sound, giving off a godly aura.


    Seven Rolling Knife''s face was covered in cold sweat. He frowned and did not avoid the attack. Instead, he pulled out all of the lime in his body and appeared in front of Shi Yan. He wanted to fight with the Heaven Descending Sword head-on.


    BOOM!


    As soon as they touched each other, the two forces clashed, sparks flew, the black sword did not disappear, the lime did not dissipate, and the sword continued to pierce through, spinning rapidly.


    "Break!"


    In this stalemate, Lin Xing''s palm slammed down on the hilt of his sword. The black sharp sword immediately began to radiate with energy, and its power suddenly increased by leaps and bounds.


    Puff ¡­


    The next moment, although the lime was still in the air, it was pierced through by the black sword and struck the Seven Rolling Knife''s chest, sending him flying far away. His body fell on the ground and he struggled to stand up before spitting out a mouthful of blood.


    The entire audience was shocked. Lin Xin''s Seven Rolling Knives could not even receive a single attack from him!


    Of course, this was not a true battle. If two people were fighting, the Heaven Descending Sword Set would easily dodge, and the Seven Rolling Blades would not be defeated.


    "How is this possible!?" My lemons? "


    Seven Blade kneeled on one knee. He didn''t care about the blood that dripped from the corner of his mouth as he stretched out his two palms and placed them in front of his eyes. He was in a daze and could not believe what he was seeing.


    "Are you convinced!?"


    Lin Qi interrupted his emotions and asked in an indifferent tone.


    Seven Scrolls revealed an unwilling expression, but there was nothing he could do. He pounded his fists on the ground, then he waved his hand and ordered a Qi warrior, "Go and get two hundred top-grade spirit crystals for our Alliance Master."


    The last three words were emphasized on his tongue. He was unwilling to accept it, but in his heart, he was still unwilling to accept it.


    "You are in arrears and have only just paid it. Do you think two hundred top quality spirit crystals is enough?" Lin Qi stared at the Seven Rolling Knives.


    Upon hearing this, Seven Rolling Knives flew into a rage, "What is the meaning of this?"


    "Double the price, this is the price for delinquent spirit crystals." Lin Xing said one word at a time.

 C181

    Including the two of you, this is also double the original price. Earlier, you guys had already handed over a hundred, so your choice is still considered wise.


    Lin Qi''s attitude was firm and his voice was cold. He looked at Zhu Liang and Han Xuan without any emotion.


    Zhu Liang and Han Xuan hesitated for a long time before clenching their teeth. They each took out two hundred top quality spirit crystals and scattered them on the ground. Their hearts were twitching and dripping blood.


    Seven blade roll had been defeated, what else could they do? Could it be that he would have to receive another blow?


    Lin Xing retracted his gaze and continued to stare at the seven scrolls. His eyes were sharp and he looked down from above, as if he possessed the dignity of a person in power.


    Seeing the actions of the two, Seven Rolling Knives let out a deep sigh and instructed the Chisels to bring the four hundred top quality spirit crystals over.


    After a while, Qi Shi took out four hundred top grade spirit crystals and placed them at the side. Lin Xing gestured for Su Qian to go up and take a look. If the quantity was correct, he would put them away.


    "Not one less." Lin Xing said.


    Hearing this, the third hallmaster flew into a frenzy as sparks appeared in his eyes. This was too unkind.


    Su Qian gave him a appreciative look and walked over to count the Spirit Crystals.


    After that, Lin Xing turned to the Seven Rolling Knives and said, "Send someone to the Blood Hall and summon Qin Xiao to meet me."


    After he finished speaking, he disappeared.


    An afterimage that was even faster than lightning appeared in front of the Qi warriors in the city, then they headed straight for the city gate.


    After leaving the city, Lin Xing did not stop at all. He ran like the wind and lightning all the way out of the city.


    There were many mountains outside the city, and it was a unique terrain that aroused his curiosity.


    His figure appeared at first in the group of gullies, then in the distance.


    Finally, he stopped at the highest mountain peak, overlooking the mountains below. He was lost in thought, and his eyes would occasionally roll.


    He was observing the terrain. Relying on the mountain, he might be able to handle this great calamity.


    After pondering for a long time, he finally understood something. With a smile, he turned around and returned to Fist City.


    When he reached the top of the city gate tower, he watched for a while more. The smile on his face became more obvious with excitement.


    At this moment, Su Qian walked over with the three Palace Masters. Among them was a young woman that was as beautiful as a flower.


    The sword intent around the girl was faintly discernible as it mixed with a breathtaking aura. This was a sword immortal of the elite level. It was Qin Xiao, who had just left Lin Xing.


    "Vice chief, all the top quality spirit crystals from the three halls have been delivered, not a bit less." Su Qian walked over with light steps and a smile towards Lin Qi.


    Lin Xing nodded and his gaze landed on Qin Xiao.


    However, Qin Xiao was flabbergasted as she pointed at Lin Qi. Her face looked as though it had been burned in flames. Her face was filled with disbelief and astonishment.


    "You are Lin Xing!" After holding back for a long time, he finally spoke those words.


    "Exactly." Lin Xing smiled as he walked towards her.


    "Hmph, he is our new deputy chief. He is very arrogant and scheming. Miss Qin, you have to take it easy on him." The seven scrolls still ached for the four hundred top grade spirit crystals. Their faces were full of indignation, and they would speak out whenever they had the chance.


    Lin Xing and Qin Xiao turned a deaf ear and completely ignored him. Qin Xiao''s face turned slightly red and she looked slightly shy. She bit her lips and said gently, "Thank you for your reminder."


    Lin Qi spread out his hands and met her gaze. He gave her a gentle smile but did not say anything.


    From the looks of it, with his reminder, Qin Xiao had made a new breakthrough in her sword techniques. She had improved greatly.


    Then, Lin Qi turned his gaze towards the mountain range outside the city.


    He asked, "Every time Blood Hall, Dark Hall, and Scarlet Thunder Hall launch a beast tide, will the impact on your three halls be much less than that on the Hall of Punching?"


    The three of them were stunned for a moment before nodding their heads at the same time. Qin Xiao had a good impression of Lin Xing and did not hesitate to step forward to help him out.


    As these words left his mouth, the other four looked over in curiosity, waiting for Lin Xing to answer. Even Seven-rolled Knife closed his mouth. This was his greatest headache. He had been trying to find a way to solve this, but he couldn''t find an answer.


    Every time the demon beast horde attacked, they would lose the most people.


    Indeed!


    Lin Xing verified his guess and decided on the answer in his heart. "It''s very simple. It''s because of the terrain."


    "Terrain!"


    The five of them stared blankly. They were still confused.


    Without explaining anything, he turned around and stared at Qin Xiao, Zhu Liang, and Han Xuan. He said in an commanding tone, "You three have each transferred half your men to defend them against the beast tide."


    "What!?" "You are crazy, this is impossible."


    Before Lin Xing could finish his words, Zhu Liang and Han Xuan''s faces darkened with anger. In their eyes, Lin Xing was even more hated than the person who killed his father.


    Qin Xiao fell silent and bit her lips. She was unable to agree. This request was too difficult and had touched her bottom line.


    "If you call the three halls over, what can you do about it? You want the rest of the people to die? " Su Qian was angry and his tone was icy cold.


    Among the five of them, only Seven Rolling Saber''s eyes were filled with gratitude. His impression of Lin Xing rose sharply, and he was moved beyond words. The loss of the four hundred top quality spirit crystal flowers from before was not a loss.


    However, this bias, isn''t it a little too obvious!


    He did not get angry, but instead explained calmly: "I already told you that the impact of the three halls is too little, and that is the reason for the terrain. The moment the beast wave swept away the city, the location of the fist attack would be in front of the three halls, and if the fist attack could not be defended, then the three halls would be in no danger, and if the city was destroyed, then the four halls under my command would definitely fall, and no one would be able to leave the Sky Cauldron alive. On the contrary, as long as the beast wave managed to attack the three halls, they would be able to protect half of the city."


    The five of them could not refute Lin Qi''s straightforward words.


    For a moment, everyone went silent.


    "Then why don''t we mobilize all of our men? Why do we still need half of our men to guard the place?" Qin Xiao was tempted, but puzzled, she asked.


    "If we bring everyone here, the impact on the main city will be much greater. The main city must not fall, just in case ¡­" That is our final path of retreat. " Lin Xing sighed.


    "Alright, I agree with the vice head''s suggestion." Qin Xiao lifted her pretty face. Her expression was bashful and serious.


    Zhu Liang and Han Xuan looked at each other. In the end, they had no choice but to agree.


    After that, they each ordered their respective halls to return to the hall and send out orders. They then gathered half of the Qi Scholars there to defend the city.


    "Seventh Hall Master, we will protect your Fist Rush City!" Lin Qi suddenly looked at the Seven Rolling Sword''s face and said with a smile that was not a smile.


    "You guys are helping me? "What do you mean?"


    Seven Rolling Blade''s face darkened. Seeing Lin Xing''s strange expression, he felt a sense of unease in his heart.

 C182

    "My intention is very simple. Transfer all the people in your palace to the three mountains and build a three-layered defense line to reduce the impact of the city."


    Lin Qi''s face was as square as a field, and his eyes were as black as jade as he gazed at the mountain range in front of him. His fingers made marks in each of the three mountains, and finally his gaze landed on the tallest one.


    The moment his voice fell into the eardrums of the Seven Rolling Knives, his face immediately turned deathly pale. Blood gathered in his eyes as he spewed out flames from his eyes. In an instant, his fists were clenched to the point that they were harder than steel.


    Lin Xing was simply too vicious. He clearly wanted his life. No, it was to take the lives of everyone in the Hall of Punching, and with the help of the beast tide at that.


    Previously, he had instructed the three halls to gather men to defend Fist Rush the city, and he was extremely grateful. Now, not only did the gratitude disappear, it was even filled with boundless anger.


    Su Qian observed the situation and acted quickly. He quickly blocked in front of him, temporarily suppressing his anger back to his chest, and asked Lin Xingzhi, "Although the mountains outside the city are tall, they do not have the protection of the great defensive formation. When the beasts face the mountains and eat them, it will be too late for them to escape. I disagree with your suggestion. "


    "Oh, then we should bring all of the defensive equipment forged by the three halls and have them be brought along with us. They are stored on the mountain, so we can still defend against the beast tide." Lin Qi faintly smiled, his eyes bright as he stared at Su Qian Qian.


    Seeing his expression, Seven Rolling Knife really wanted to take him on the spot. Let alone how hateful he was, how could a few defensive tools block the ferocious attacks of the beast tide? Just as he was about to retaliate, Lin Qi suddenly interrupted him and said, "Seventh Hall Master, please calm down. As long as you listen to my orders, I guarantee that everyone will be fine, no matter how big the beast tide is, it won''t be a threat to your lives. If you''re still worried, when the beast tide attacks, I''ll go to the three mountains with you and fight alongside you. "How about it?"


    "Are you serious? Are you really going to guard the mountain with me?" Seven Rolling Blade was stunned.


    "Seriously, don''t worry. Even if there''s danger, I''ll still be able to withstand it." Lin Qi felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, but he was also very confident.


    Seven Rolling Knives gave a muffled grunt, nodded his head, turned around and left, giving the order to three mountains to set up the formation.


    Lin Xing had made it clear that he did not have the courage to refuse again. If he said he was afraid, then wouldn''t he lose all face?


    Lin Qi watched him leave with a smile on his face. He then turned around and continued to stare at the mountains in front of him. His eyes kept moving, and he wanted to find the flaw in the mountains so that he could fix it before the beast tide arrived.


    At the same time, Qin Xiao, Han Xuan, and Zhu Liang also split up in preparation for the beast tide to come.


    Su Qian leapt off the city gate tower and headed straight for the three mountains. She wanted to personally observe the terrain, but she was still a little worried. Lin Xing''s suggestion was too hasty.


    Although the World Alliance had a large fortune, they could not withstand this loss. It was still alright for a dozen of them to die, but if everyone in the Dashing Palace died because of this, it would be an extremely heavy blow to the World Alliance.


    In the following time, under the command of the Seven Rolling Knives, the equipment built by the four halls were being delivered to the three mountains in groups.


    The third palace was in the city, checking to see if the great defensive formation was normal. Moreover, it had transported a lot of spirit crystals and piled them up on top of the city walls to be guarded.


    Every time he activated the defensive formation, the amount of spirit crystals consumed would be unimaginable. This was also the point where he needed to take his life.


    The demon beast horde attacked every few days, causing many people to use up all of their top-grade spirit crystals.


    At this time, the leader of the alliance, Xiao Xi, and Yan Niang made their way to Fist Rush City. Their figures flashed a couple of times before they appeared in front of Lin Xing.


    Xiao Monarch''s demeanor was unquestionable. His movements were elegant and dignified. His temperament was especially so. He looked like a god that no one could ever have.


    The beautiful face was clear, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, making one unable to fathom its depth.


    The two of them patrolled around the World Alliance area. Punch City was the last stop. Seeing the scene of Punch City and recalling the situation in the other three cities under Lin Xing''s command, they couldn''t help but ask Lin Xing about his thoughts.


    Lin Xing told them the truth, explaining the strategy and position of the city to them. Hearing this, both of them were surprised.


    In the end, Xiao Lin praised him and said: "That''s right, that''s right. I was right about you. According to you, as long as you defend this city, the four halls under you will be safe and sound."


    "That''s right, this city is a place that cannot be overlooked. Strictly speaking, when the beasts attack, the three halls will suffer a lot less because they are protected by the Hall of Punching. As long as we can hold on to our fists, we can hold on to half of the World Alliance''s land. " Lin Xing said.


    "You''re right, but I have something I don''t understand. "Why did you still send all of the Seven Rolling Knives to the mountains outside the city? Without the defensive formation, even a group of Tianshou would not be able to withstand the beast tide." Xiao Lin asked with a frown and confusion in his eyes.


    At the same time, Yanniang also looked towards Lin Xing, eager to know the answer.


    This beast wave is incredibly rare this time, there''s no telling how many powerful Ancient God Demons will appear this time. With fists outside the city and mountains and rivers in danger, why don''t we bring out this terrain to its greatest effect? That''s why I set up the three layers of defense. I don''t need to seek to defend against the monster tide, as long as I can withstand three to four waves of attacks and reduce the impact, that''s all. "


    "So that''s how it is." Xiao Lin nodded in understanding.


    Niang Niang''s expression was shaken, as if she had understood something, she turned around and bid farewell to Xiao Jian and Lin Xing. She ran down the city wall, heading straight for the four halls under her command.


    Lin Qi smiled as he watched her back as she hurried back. His reminder was very useful to her.


    If the terrain was properly used, it was better than a hundred Qi warriors.


    Afterwards, Xiao Xi jumped off the city wall and headed towards the three mountains. She also wanted to go visit them herself.


    With his powerful cultivation, he had already entered Heaven Speeding, and had the ability to travel through the void. His feet hovered two meters above the ground, and with two flashes, he disappeared.


    Lin Xing returned to the city at the same time and checked on the defensive array. He also said some bold words in front of a group of Qi warriors in order to boost the morale of the city.


    The fortifications were built, the troops were arranged, and everything was in order. Everyone was busy.


    This demon beast horde was rare for a hundred years, no one dared to slack off.


    It was like marching and fighting. It was a battle to the death, and they had to be on their guard.


    Two days quietly passed.


    Boom ¡­


    On the third day, the earth shook, and the mountain forests were in a state of shock. From afar, the sound of fierce footsteps could be heard, causing the sky and earth to pale in comparison.


    The monster tide arrived as scheduled...

 C183

    The sky was dark, and raging winds raged. The scene overlooking the mountains expanded a bit, and one could see a large area filled with a bloody aura that blotted out the sky and covered the earth, engulfing the entire Heavenly Cauldron.


    At this moment, everyone in the Heavenly Cauldron was in a state of shock.


    All kinds of ear-splitting cries and shrieks rang out, one after another within the vast Archaic Ruins.


    During the same period, the World Alliance was dominated by fist strikes. No one inside or outside the city was timid, and their faces were filled with a fearless expression.


    In reality, this was all due to Lin Xing. In the past two days, he had not been idle. He had done their mental work well, overcoming the fear hidden deep within their hearts.


    Lin Qi stood on top of the city gate tower, gazing at the vast land beyond the mountains. His face was expressionless, and his eyes flashed with starlight.


    Roar ¡­


    Not long after, a huge tiger''s head appeared from behind a mountain in the front. It let out an earth-shattering roar, and suddenly, the entire universe seemed to tremble.


    Boom ¡­


    Quickly after, countless Fierce Beasts surged out from that place. They were extremely fierce, and their steps were endless, causing people to be overwhelmed with shock.


    Some were ten meters tall and covered in dense iron scales, while others were completely covered in long hair. Only their bloodshot eyes were exposed, giving off an intimidating, ominous glint.


    Their only emotion was ruthlessness. Other thoughts simply did not exist.


    Hordes of beasts waded through the ravines of the mountains and charged towards the city.


    With such a large lineup, many of the old men could no longer maintain their composure. Their faces were deathly pale, and they instinctively revealed a look of fear.


    Lin Qi was also shaken. He looked at the beasts behind him and felt more and more ferocious. His brows were tightly knitted together, and he did not say a word.


    The demon beast horde this time around was not the same as the one outside the Dian Yue Palace. They were strong and numerous, causing the mountains to tremble.


    Boom ¡­ Puff ¡­ Roar ¡­


    Right at this moment, chaotic noises filled the air. Lin Qi saw that on the first line of defense, Seven Rolling Blades and his Qi warriors were standing on the first mountain, launching a fierce attack at the beasts in the ravine below.


    The catapult shook, and the fireball smashed down like a star. As soon as it hit the ground, it exploded, blowing away the nearby vicious beasts'' flesh and blood. No matter how thick the scales were, they wouldn''t be able to withstand it.


    There was also that twenty-meter-long arrow, which was extremely powerful. It pierced through the bodies of over ten ferocious beasts and didn''t even need to stop.


    This wave of attacks dealt a heavy blow to the horde of beasts leading the way. In an instant, a large number of casualties formed a small hill with corpses piled up in front of it.


    The arrows and fireballs were created by special techniques used by the people from the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Especially those fireballs, as long as they touched the body of a vicious beast, they would create a powerful explosion and easily kill a large amount of people.


    After being attacked, the beast tide let out an angry roar. They all looked up at the mountain and charged forward.


    Their figures were like lightning, shuttling back and forth like light. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at the halfway mark of the mountain.


    The Seven Rolling Knives looked down at the vicious beasts that had charged halfway up the mountain. With a wave of his sleeve, he ordered his subordinates to turn their firepower to its strongest point. All their weapons had been smashed onto the mountain.


    "Motherf * cker, where''s Lin Xing? Didn''t he say that he was going to fight alongside us at the front lines?" "How come there''s no one else." The Seven Rolling Knives suddenly recalled their previous agreement and cursed out in anger.


    "I don''t know." I haven''t seen any deputy chief around. " said one of the Chisels.


    "Hmph. This coward. He has a stomach full of flowers and intestines. When he encounters something big, he runs faster than anyone else." Seven rolling blades were full of curses, with a face full of anger.


    Qi Shi changed the topic and asked with a pale face, "Head, the beast tide is about to rush over. Let''s quickly retreat, otherwise, it''ll be too late."


    "Wait a bit longer. I want to kill two ferocious beasts myself. Let them see the blood first." The bones of the seven scrolls were very hard, so he wasn''t afraid at all.


    Naturally, they were not referring to the Vicious Beasts, but Lin Xing and the others who were waiting in the city to watch a good show.


    Suddenly, a Qi warrior came from behind and approached the seven scrolls. He said in one breath, "Seventh Palace Master, the vice alliance master ordered for you to retreat and defend the second line of defense."


    "He left so easily? Then wouldn''t it be a waste if I just built it for two days? Right now, the beast tide is only halfway up the mountain, so we still have enough firepower to fire another round. " Seven Rolling Blade was stunned. He didn''t agree.


    That Qi Shi seemed to have already expected his answer. He said, "Seventh Hall Master, vice head said that if you don''t withdraw, you will be expelled from the World Alliance."


    "What? He dares?" The Seven Rolling Knives were infuriated as he glared fiercely at Qi Shi who had spoken.


    At this time, one of his subordinates trembled as he said, "Palace Lord, let''s do as we''re told. The vice head must have his own thoughts."


    Seven Blade''s expression froze for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Good, then all of you retreat to the second hill and continue your fierce attack on this group of beasts."


    Finished speaking, everyone threw away their weapons and ran down the back mountain. Not long after, they arrived at the second line of defense.


    More lethal weapons were already prepared there. Compared to the first line of defense, there were more than ten times as many weapons as the first line of defense. Moreover, there were also some people controlling them to eliminate all the chasing beasts.


    This was also Lin Xing''s plan. His intention was to allow them to hold off the second line of defense for a longer period of time, and to consume a few more packs of beasts.


    As for those beasts that had just ascended the first mountain, they only picked up an empty mountain. Many beasts that were unwilling to accept this were able to destroy all their weapons.


    On top of the city gate tower, everyone was staring intently at the scene before them. Lin Xing''s expression was exceptionally heavy as he stared at the scene in front of him.


    Suddenly, he looked at one of the Qi warriors next to him: "Send out more orders. Order the seven scrolls to destroy the front ranks of the monster tide in the second mountain."


    "Yes." He leapt down from the city gate tower and frantically ran away.


    "Should we send someone to help?" The third hallmaster turned to look at Lin Xing at the same time.


    Lin Qi was emotionally moved, but after thinking for a while, he eventually shook his head and refused.


    At this time, he had to remain calm. There was an even bigger beast tide approaching from the distance. He could not put all his troops into this fight. When he was tired, would he not be able to kill any beast?


    They were fighting a war of attrition, not a war of attrition. As long as they protected the city, it would be like burning incense.


    "No need, it''s not the time for you to fight yet." Lin Xing said.


    At this time, the Seven Rolling Knives also received Lin Xing''s order. They fired their full firepower at the beast tide below the mountain.


    The crossbow arrows rained down in groups, directly piercing through seven or eight fierce beasts.


    The fireballs descended from the sky like falling stars. Once they hit the ground, they would explode and kill a large amount of people.


    As for the nameless Hellfire, it came from Han Xuan''s hand and was spat out from the iron core. It was capable of shooting away a distance of 800 meters, and once the fierce beast came into contact with it, it would turn into ash without even a scream. It was strange but ferocious, causing the people on the city wall to feel a chill run down their spines.


    Han Xuan raised his head and finally stopped lowering it. He had an arrogant expression on his face as he glanced at Lin Xing from time to time.

 C184

    How could Lin Xing possibly have the mind to pay attention to his little actions? He completely turned a blind eye to it, his eyes tightly staring at the frontlines of the battlefield.


    All sorts of chaotic sounds were mixed there. It was deafening, like mountains collapsing and seas cracking. Especially the howls of the vicious beasts; they were extremely shocking.


    On the second mountain, the firepower was a complete mess. Before the monster tide reached the halfway point of the mountain, it had already piled up all the corpses on the ground.


    The situation was extremely desperate, and everyone was emotionally moved.


    "Hit, hit him hard, put all your firepower on the line."


    Seven Rolling Knives opened his arms, took out his black long blade, pointed it at the beasts at the foot of the mountain, and shouted as he spat.


    There was no need for him to remind them. The Qi warriors and the two prodigies of the mountain did not dare to slack off. They used their firepower to go all out and ruthlessly smash down.


    After the demon beast horde paid a heavy price, the horde of beasts that followed behind finally climbed to the top of the second mountain with raging fury.


    Seven Rolling Knives grinned and licked his lips, his face full of excitement and bloodlust. Without fear, he ordered most of the people to continue to smash the beasts at the bottom of the mountain, and a few of them followed him to finish off the beasts at the top.


    The two sides clashed fiercely and engaged in a hand-to-hand fight with the beast.


    As the two sides clashed, the strength of the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters was not to be underestimated. The strength of those vicious beasts was also so strong that it caused one to tremble.


    Each person could only fight two berserk beasts at most, and if there was more, they wouldn''t be able to handle it. As for the people that could fight the four berserk beasts at the same time, they wouldn''t be at a disadvantage.


    On the battlefield, only the Seven Rolling Knives were surrounded by the eight Vicious Beasts. They were heavily surrounded, but they were not afraid at all. They had faces full of fearlessness and excitement.


    The black blade in his hand flipped and displayed a move that could sweep away an army of a thousand. It directly split open the scales of a vicious beast and split open its belly.


    "Haha ¡­" "Come on, I''ve been in the Heavenly Cauldron for two months and killed even more vicious beasts than you guys."


    Instead of retreating, the Seven Rolling Blades advanced forward. Even in the midst of the attacks from the remaining seven vicious beasts, the expression on their faces remained unchanged.


    Then, an aura akin to a primordial beast began to emanate from his body, as domineering as a beast king''s, immediately sweeping out in all directions.


    The seven beasts'' eyes suddenly revealed an instinctive fear. They were all vicious beasts, and they had a natural fear of Feng Li that came from the soul.


    The seven beasts were suppressed. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the seven blades chopped out the black sabers, killing the two beasts with one slash.


    They were swift and agile. If it weren''t for the wind lemon suppressing them, he could have killed one at most. But because of the wind lime, he was able to kill seven of them easily.


    It was even like entering an area devoid of people.


    Puff ¡­ Puff ¡­


    In a split-second, another two vicious beasts died. Their stinky blood intestines dripped onto the ground, and another head was sliced off as it rolled over a hundred meters away.


    There were less than three remaining vicious beasts, but at that moment, countless more rushed up from the foot of the mountain. They directly destroyed those weapons and began to fight against everyone with blades in hand.


    The Seven Rolling Knives'' face immediately sank. Looking around at the endless horde of beasts, he shouted out loudly and decisively and fearlessly continued his charge.


    On the city gate tower in the distance, when Lin Xing saw this scene, he immediately sent someone to instruct, "Order the Seven Spreading Blades to leave the second mountain, no more battles are allowed."


    "Yes." Chee dashed down the tower.


    Lin Xing had said that this was a battle of attrition, not a battle of annihilation. There was no need to engage in a close combat with a vicious beast right now, and unnecessary casualties would result.


    Not long after, Lin Qi saw Seven Rolling Sabers leading a group of men and retreating towards the third mountain, followed by a large group of vicious beasts.


    Seeing that they had withdrawn, Lin Qi''s expression returned to normal. His right fist landed heavily on the city wall, and a faint trace of violence could be seen on his face.


    Boom ¡­


    Suddenly, his gaze became focused, and his expression changed once again. Everyone was a bit horrified, and all of them firmly fixed their gazes on the third mountain.


    Their gazes clearly touched upon a creature from the ancient times.


    It was a divine Ancient Devil Seed with the head of a tiger, tail of a snake, body of a dog, eyes of a dragon, and two pairs of iron wings fused together. It was as big as a mountain.


    The body was covered densely in scales, and glittered with brilliant light. There was also that pair of dragon eyes, sharp and heavy. When they looked at each other, they couldn''t help but feel a chill!


    "What kind of magic seed is this!"


    "This is too terrifying. Even if Tianshu was here, he would still have to back off."


    The group of people cried out in alarm, and no one was able to maintain their composure. This was the first time they had ever seen such a powerful huge beast.


    Moreover, there was more than one beast. Eight more appeared from the vast earth. Currently, there were a total of nine huge beasts that were charging towards this place.


    The nine powerful divine Ancient Devil Seeds shockingly appeared, causing the mountains and rivers to continuously roll about. When the beast tide saw this, they all stopped and began to prostrate themselves in the distance, as if their king was personally coming.


    "Has there ever been such a monster before?" Lin Qi was still relatively calm as he took a deep breath and asked Su Qian Qian.


    "No, never." Su Qian''s beautiful face paled. Even with her personality, she was unable to control herself.


    "This demon beast horde is indeed rare. The demon seeds that appear are after each other."


    Lin Xing pulled the clothes around his waist and cleared his throat. "Each of the three halls have twenty Qi warriors. Go to the third mountain and the seven scimitars to fight against the nine beasts. We must prevent them from leaving the third mountain."


    Their words were powerful and unquestionable. The Third Palace Master, who was standing beside them, knew of the importance of this matter and did not dare to slack off. He followed Lin Xing''s instructions and dispatched twenty Qi warriors to the top of the third mountain.


    If Lin Xing''s guess was right, then the nine beasts were most likely heading towards the city. Although the city was protected by a grand formation, it could not withstand the nine beasts'' rampage. That was why he gave the order to stop the nine beasts from approaching the city.

 C185

    The nine ancient divine beasts arrived in person and pounced towards the city with their fists. They were infused with an endless aura of brutality, and every step they took caused the mountains and rivers to tremble.


    As for those large beast tide, they were still crawling outside, quietly observing the Nine Beasts'' godly prowess.


    Boom ¡­


    At this time, Seven Rolling Knives commanded the people of the third mountain to finally launch an attack. All sorts of weapons were ruthlessly smashed down from the mountain.


    The nine beasts'' bodies exploded after being hit by the fireballs. However, when the smoke and dust dispersed, the nine beasts were still unharmed. The scales on their bodies had become even more oily than before.


    This scene was sufficient to cause shock in the hearts of the spectators. In front of the nine beasts, weapons with immense destructive power were completely useless.


    Lin Xing''s pupils shrank as he ordered, "Tell the seven scrolls to shoot these nine beasts in the eye at all costs. That is their weakness."


    Upon receiving the order, a Chisel dashed towards the third mountain.


    Lin Qi had noticed that when the attacks landed on the nine beasts, they all closed their eyes, so he guessed that their eyes were their weakness.


    Puff puff ¡­


    The powerful fierce attack from the mountain had completely infuriated the nine beasts. At this moment, they suddenly launched a counterattack. The wings on their backs gently flapped and shot out countless black colored blades.


    He drew an arc in the air, and then a large area of sharp blades shot down into the sky. Three Qi warriors were hit before they could dodge in time, dying instantly.


    Two more people had their arms pierced through, revealing bloody holes. They lay on the ground, wailing in pain and losing the strength to fight again.


    However, even more sharp blades shot into the interior of the mountain. It was at least three hundred meters deep, and no matter where it went, it was just a tiny black hole.


    After receiving Lin Qi''s order, the Seven Rolling Knives hurriedly changed their attacking style. With the support of the fireball and the Hellfire, the twenty-meter-long crossbow arrow began a new round of attacks.


    BOOM!


    Another round of explosions filled the air as all nine beasts were struck. However, just as the nine beasts once again opened their eyes, countless crossbow bolts rapidly fell from the sky.


    Puchi ¡­


    The two beasts were unable to dodge in time, and their eyes were shot. Half of the crossbow arrow pierced through its head, and after struggling for a while, it collapsed to the ground.


    "Effective. Their eyes are weak. "


    The seven scrolls clapped rapidly. Everyone was visibly moved as they continued to shoot down the huge beasts as per the method they had just used.


    However, their attacks had also angered these powerful Primordial Demon Seeds. The remaining seven beasts immediately let out angry roars that were earth-shattering and deafening, directly smashing into the mountain with their bodies.


    They were huge, like a small mountain, and their bodies were covered in iron-forged scales. When they hit the mountain, the whole of the third mountain shook non-stop, and huge rocks rolled down the mountain.


    Because of this, the entire mountain was on the verge of collapse.


    The crowd on the mountain panicked and continued to do the same thing. However, the remaining seven beasts had already prepared for it and protected their eyes tightly. When the arrow hit their eyelids, it immediately bounced back.


    "These large beasts have suffered a setback once, and now that they''re on guard, the crossbow bolts won''t even be able to pierce through. What should we do?"


    The group of people looked at the mountain that was about to collapse and were at a loss. They didn''t know what to do for a moment, and even the Seven Rolling Knives were worried.


    He turned to the person beside him and asked, "Vice chief, did you receive any new orders?"


    At this moment, he was actually thinking of Lin Qi. Because Lin Xing was full of evil schemes, he had even changed his name in this moment of crisis.


    "Nope." Someone replied helplessly.


    "Palace Lord, quickly take a look." Suddenly, another person cried out in alarm as he pointed at the foot of the mountain.


    Seven Rolling Knives immediately recovered his wits and looked down the mountain. He saw the three beasts fall to the ground with a loud crash, their massive bodies collapsing. Many people didn''t even have time to react to what had just happened.


    However, one could clearly see that the three beasts had blood flowing out of their eyes. There was even a small wound with blood flowing out from it.


    This scene stunned not just the crowd, but all of the beasts as well.


    Roar ¡­


    Then, the remaining four beasts turned their vicious gazes onto the young man with the black bow standing proudly on top of the city gate tower.


    He was the one who fired three arrows just now, killing all three beasts.


    Lin Xing was still gazing at the horizon with a faint smile on his face. He looked at the four beasts for a while before hastily shifting his gaze to the third peak.


    Just now, the seven scimitars had launched their attack, but they were successfully blocked by the beasts. However, just as they were relaxing, Lin Xing decisively took out his Black God Bow and shot out three arrows in one go, delivering a fatal blow to the three beasts.


    At this moment, the Seven Rolling Knives saw Lin Xing looking in their direction. How could they not understand? They immediately ordered the Qi warriors to use this opportunity to quickly launch a new round of fierce attacks.


    Upon seeing this, the remaining four beasts stopped clashing into the mountain. Instead, they quickly retreated, and gave Lin Qi a deep look.


    Until now, they had discovered that it was this youth who had been controlling the entire battle. He had taken the lives of three large beasts the moment he attacked. If they continued to attack, who knows what tricks he might have up his sleeve, causing the group of vicious beasts to feel terrified.


    Although the Four Beasts retreated a great distance, the formation they were in caused Lin Xing to furrow his brows. His heart skipped a beat.


    The four beasts stood in two rows, and at this moment, they were the same as the beast herd as they prostrated themselves on the ground. It was as if they were welcoming the arrival of an even more powerful Archaic Devil Seed.


    Lin Qi punched the city wall and shouted to the people around him, "Quickly, order all of the men from the third mountain to retreat to the city. Do not stay for even a moment."


    "What''s wrong?" Su Qian asked in confusion when he saw Su Chen''s abnormal actions.


    Before Lin Xing could reply, he saw in the distance a vast expanse of lava flowing along a ravine in the mountain range. The temperature was so high that the sky was burning red.


    The lava moved across the ground and flowed along the ravine at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, it had already reached the third mountain.


    There was a large group of beasts that couldn''t dodge in time and were swallowed up. They didn''t even let out any screams, and they didn''t even leave anything behind.


    Seeing this, the beast tide immediately scattered and all retreated backwards, including the four great beasts. They all revealed an instinctual fear.


    "This... Could it be Earth Flame? "


    Su Qian surveyed his surroundings and seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, he let out a shocked cry.


    The word ''Earth Flame'' filled the air, immediately causing everyone''s faces to pale in shock. Their hearts plummeted to the abyss.


    "I estimate that this thing is 99% Earth Flame." Lin Qi took a deep breath and furrowed his brows.


    Lin Qi had naturally heard of the Earth Flame being one of the three disasters of the Heavenly Cauldron. It was even more terrifying than a beast tide. As long as it was born, it meant that the Heavenly Cauldron was destined for disaster.


    This kind of thing, because you can''t defend yourself at all, and when the beast tide comes, at least there''s a defensive formation that you can use to defend yourself.


    However, the Earth Flame was different. The Great City Barrier Formation was completely useless in front of it. Everywhere it went, life would be destroyed and all living things would be destroyed. No matter what it burned, it would only burn them into nothingness.


    Lin Qi could see now that as long as it was a place where lava flowed, all that was left was ashes, nothing else.


    As for the horde of beasts that had been devoured due to not being able to dodge in time, not even a speck of them remained.


    The Earth Flame rolled like a wave, bringing with it a heatwave. In the center, there was a kirin-like beast head that was faintly discernible from time to time.


    A large group of people jumped down from the back of the third mountain, all of them rushing into the city.


    They were the seven scrolls that received Lin Xing''s order. In reality, they didn''t even need Lin Xing to pass down the order. After seeing Earth Flame appear, they were already scared out of their wits. Even if Lin Xing didn''t tell them to withdraw, they didn''t dare to stay here any longer.


    He could run back to the city as fast as he wanted.


    However, no matter how fast they were, they could not be faster than the magma that was bubbling. The Qilin-like beast head had a savage smile on its face, and the magma in front of them immediately rose into the air, then suddenly crashed down.


    This shocking attack covered the entirety of the third mountain. The lava that splashed out flew up to the walls of the third mountain. With a "puchi" sound, the tiles on the wall shattered into pieces.


    Seven of the Qi warriors were a step too slow before they were covered by the magma. Then, they were immediately swallowed up and no longer made a sound.

 C186

    The Seven Rolling Knives looked back and saw this scene. They immediately glared at him, their bloodshot eyes filled with boundless rage.


    "You guys retreat, I''ll block the rear."


    With a loud roar, he raised his sharp black blade and decisively charged forward, disregarding the danger.


    To him, as the hall master, the loss of seven Qi warriors in one go was too heavy of a blow. It triggered the anger in his heart, and with his life, he made Di Yan pay the price.


    On top of the city gate tower, Lin Xing''s eyes became serious as he sucked in a breath of cold air. He immediately took out the two celestial swords from the soul hole and descended toward the city gate tower. He then stomped his feet on the ground to block Di Yan''s attack.


    The earth''s flames surged and surged. The lava in front of him once again rose up from the ground and poured down in the direction of the Seven Rolling Knives.


    The Seven Rolling Knives were terrified. Despair emerged in their hearts, but their faces remained unchanged. Without fear, they summoned all of the lime in their bodies. At the same time, the black blade automatically sent out a layer of protection to cover his whole body.


    However, as soon as Feng Li appeared, he was immediately blown away by the heat wave. The high temperature was unbearable.


    Now, only a barrier was left in front of the Seven Rolling Knives. When the lava splashed onto it, a small hole was immediately burned open. Not long after, it was riddled with holes.


    Seeing the large amount of lava that came crashing down from the sky, the Seven Rolling Knife''s expression finally changed. It was too late for him to run even if he wanted to.


    In that crucial moment, a sword aura streaked through the air. It was like the faint shadow of a meteor as the huge sword beam split the magma into two.


    Following this was Lin Xing''s figure. With a wave of his sleeve, a large amount of Death God Power was released. When it touched the magma, it immediately began to erode, causing the magma to quickly retreat.


    The Earth Flame had a spirit, so it had a boundless amount of life force, and the Death God Power was a huge killing machine that specialized in life force. When it came into contact with the magma, it directly strangled the life force of the Earth Flame, becoming ownerless.


    Taking this opportunity, Lin Xing grabbed the Seven Rolling Knife in a daze and quickly retreated.


    Sssii...


    A strange roar came from the head of the qilin beast in the middle of the magma, and it seemed to be aware of the pain. It was one with the magma, and the death divine power had destroyed part of its life force.


    Just this one attack had caused Earth Flame to lose five hundred years of its lifespan.


    With this thought in mind, it became furious. It rushed towards the crown, and its beastly face became distorted. It was extremely terrifying, and its entire body rapidly crawled as it rushed towards the city.


    Wherever it went, everything was destroyed. It was unstoppable, unstoppable, unstoppable.


    Retreating to the front of the city wall, Lin Xing released the hand that was holding the Seven Rolling Blades'' arm, and activated the Death God power, decisively attacking towards the Earth Flame.


    Everyone was dumbstruck as they stared at the fearless youth''s figure. Not a single one of them wasn''t dumbstruck.


    "Vice chief." Su Qian''s eyes froze as he locked onto Lin Qi.


    "He has been slaughtering his way through the Demon Spirit City. He must be even more imposing than he is now." Qin Xiao''s eyes lit up with longing.


    Seven Rolling Knives was also moved, his face revealing a strong sense of admiration.


    Lin Xing''s true intention was to block the Earth Flame''s path and not let it approach the city.


    Otherwise, when that earth-shattering strike came crashing down, not even the great cities of the ancient era would be able to withstand it. They would definitely be damaged by half, and not even everyone would be able to survive.


    Thus, as the deputy chief of the alliance, Lin Xing charged forward without hesitation.


    As soon as he approached the Earth Flame, Lin Qi felt a burning pain on his skin. His face was flushed red from the high temperature, and he could feel the pain no matter where he went.


    He quickly threw out his Death God Power, and the black powder fell from the sky onto the surging lava.

 C187

    Puff ¡­


    After suffering so much, this time, Di Yan was prepared. Before the Death God Power landed on the magma, it spewed out a strong flame, evaporating all the Death God Power.


    Lin Xing raised his eyebrows and slashed out with the dual swords in his hands. He immediately used the third charge divine sword skill.


    The first two swords smashed into the void, the third sword''s power increased explosively, shooting out a sword blade with the divine power of death, penetrating deep into the magma.


    This time, the high-temperature flame that was released was unable to block the third sword attack. Both the Death God power and the sword blade landed on the magma.


    The Qilin head immediately felt pain. When it was smashed into the magma by the divine power, it immediately lost all of its spirituality. All of its life force was strangled, and the connection with it was severed.


    The Earth Flame allowed its entire body to flow through the magma and fuse the magma back into its body. However, the life force was permanently gone, and in an instant, another 100 years of lifespan was evaporated.


    The Earth Flame was raging like thunder. Its beastly face was extremely ferocious, but it did not attack. Instead, it quickly retreated to the back.


    The wave-like magma quickly withdrew. Its speed was as fast as lightning, and it disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.


    Roar ¡­


    The next moment, from the vast earth, came a shocking roar that shook the entire world.


    The roar did not come from Earth Flame, but from an even more powerful creature.


    As for those beasts, after hearing the roar, they immediately straightened up, as if they had gone mad. Under the lead of the four ancient beasts, they pounced towards the city.


    Lin Qi immediately turned around and ran towards the city wall. At the same time, he shouted, "Activate the Great City Barrier Formation immediately!"


    Actually, he didn''t even need to remind them. After seeing the fierce reaction of the beast tide, Su Qian, who was on the city wall, immediately ordered the Qi warriors to use spirit crystals to instill the spirit defense formation.


    In the blink of an eye, a layer of green light enveloped the entire Ancient Divine City. It was as if it was compatible with space itself as it reflected off of the frightening fluctuations.


    At this time, Lin Xing had also ascended to the top of the city gate tower. A group of top-notch higher-ups had quickly surrounded him.


    After this battle, his image had changed tremendously in everyone''s hearts. The way everyone looked at him had changed.


    This was especially true for the Seven Rolling Knives. Their faces were filled with gratitude, but they did not know how to express it. In the end, they could only give Lin Xing a heavy punch.


    Lin Qi hurriedly lifted his arm, indicating that he did not need to be so polite, and said, "Seventh Hall Master, take your Imperial Highness''s men to the side to rest first, and then go retrieve the pills from the shallow section. We will wait for you to recover your spirit, and also for you to have the opportunity to kill the enemy."


    "Understood." "Yes!" Seven Rolling Knives'' expression was one of incomparable respect as he left the hall with his fists clenched.


    Afterwards, Lin Xing''s gaze stopped on Qin Xiao, Han Xuan, and Zhu Liang for a moment before he said in an extremely serious tone, "Give the order that everyone in the three halls must defend the city to the death. This is our last line of defense.


    "Yes." The third hallmaster replied simultaneously.


    Everyone''s expression was grave, and within this solemness, there was no lack of admiration.


    If it wasn''t for Lin Qi''s divine foresight, he would have long ago laid down three defensive lines outside of the city, blocking the steps of the Ancient Divine Beasts and Earth Flame. The consequences would have truly been unimaginable.


    Not to mention the Earth Flame, even those primordial beasts were strong enough to charge into the city with their fists. If they messed up, the city might be destroyed and everyone might perish.


    At this moment, they guessed that the injuries sustained by the other World-level experts would be far more severe than what they had suffered today.

 C188

    The four Divine Ancient Divine Beasts stood on the side, pressing down the attacks of the beast tide on the city walls. Corpses littered the ground beneath the city walls, and rivers of blood flowed. From the vast earth, even more Divine Ancient Devil Seeds were sent over.


    Although there was a grand defensive formation protecting the city, under the fierce pounce of the beast tide, many large formations were bitten and cut open. They then rushed in the fierce beasts and then healed themselves, leaving large gaps in the formations.


    Many Qi warriors were fighting the vicious beasts on top of the city walls. They engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and all kinds of power and techniques were flying in the air.


    The situation was extremely desperate, and miserable wails and screams of both berserk beasts and humans could be heard everywhere.


    Lin Qi paced back and forth on the city wall with the three-meter long celestial sword in his hand. He would not take the initiative to attack unless a vicious beast rushed in front of him. Only then would he be killed.


    Every time he passed by a person, that person would fight fiercely with all his might, not daring to hide his power. From this, it could be seen that his current status was extremely high among the subordinates of the fourth palace.


    The demon beast horde kept attacking, and corpses and blood were everywhere. The whole battlefield was filled with a pungent smell of blood.


    This kind of situation continued for about five hours. When the beasts saw that they had been unable to attack for a long time, orders came from the back and they slowly retreated.


    Lin Qi looked at the quickly disappearing beast tide and his pupils slightly contracted. He realized that this time, the command was different. It didn''t seem to be completely withdrawn, but rather, it was like he was going back to recuperate and prepare for the next wave of attacks.


    At this moment, everyone was extremely exhausted. Some of them could not hold on and directly fell to the ground. On their difficult faces, there was a deep sense of joy.


    Many of the elders who had experienced the beast tide many times also noticed the clues. They understood that this hundred-year great beast tide had not completely ended yet. It wouldn''t be long before the beast tide would launch a counterattack.


    At this moment, the Fourth Palace Master and Su Qian arrived at Lin Qi''s side, inquiring about his next plan.


    As matters stood, how could Lin Xing have any good ideas? He could only say that he could not hold on for much longer.


    After that, he instructed the people of the four halls to take turns to rest. Some of them were injured, but the beast tide was gathering their strength.


    Lin Xing asked, "How is the battle situation in the other cities in the World Alliance going?"


    "The main city is unharmed, your other three halls are just as you said, we blocked the beast tide under the Fist Rush city, and the small impact on the three halls is nothing. As for the four halls under Big Sister Yan Niang, because of the terrain information you obtained, they were prepared and haven''t been broken, the situation isn''t too serious."


    Su Qian had been sending people to scout for news of other cities, and now that he had reported it to Lin Qi, he was finally able to put his worries to rest.


    Lin Qi''s expression eased up as he nodded his head. The situation was looking pretty good for him.


    At this time, the spirited Seven Rolling Sabers said bitterly, "I just received news that many of the World Alliance''s forces have been severely injured in this beast tide. I heard that many cities have been breached, and the casualties are extremely heavy."


    Lin Xing''s heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked, "Then what''s the situation with the World Conqueror Guild?"


    "Not too optimistic. Four of Zhan Tian''s seven branch palaces have been pulled out by the beast tide. Nearly a hundred have died." When Seven Rolling Blade said this, even he sucked in a breath of cold air.


    The others didn''t need to say anything more. All of them were shocked. Those one hundred people were freaks that had been raised by some large sects with great difficulty. In this beast tide, to just die like that sounded like child''s play.


    Only those who had truly experienced the beast tide would know that this was not child''s play, but a great calamity.


    "Zi Shi, Luo Yu, Qu Ying, Kun Yun ¡­"


    Lin Xing''s heart trembled. As he thought of the names that he was familiar with, he felt his scalp tingle and he felt as if he had fallen into an abyss.


    Then, he turned to the Seven Rolling Knives and said sternly, "Gather all those who have recovered their fighting strength in your hall, I want to take them all with me."

 C189

    "Go?" "Where to?" Seven Rolling Knives and everyone else were stunned.


    Lin Xing took a deep breath and enunciated word by word, "To save Zhan Tian and the Yue Palace."


    "What? Are you crazy? You''re now our World Alliance''s Vice President, how can you possibly ignore the safety of our Alliance and rush to rescue some Yue Qiu? Are you kidding me?" Su Qian let out a furious roar. The veins on his forehead stood out. He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.


    Lin Xing ignored her. With his eyes wide open, he stared at the Seven Rolling Knives and said, "Go quickly."


    "Oh." Seven Scrolls was now only obedient to Lin Xing. Upon hearing this, he hastily ran over to gather the people he needed.


    Then, Lin Qi turned his face back to normal and slowed down his tone. He said gently to Su Qian, "Believe me, the crisis in our alliance has been averted. The berserk beasts will not retaliate for a short period of time. I only need two days. I will definitely be back within two days."


    "Impossible, I definitely won''t agree." Su Qian''s tone was firm and there was no room for negotiation.


    Lin Qi sighed and said helplessly, "If you don''t agree, then I want to go as well." Even if Xiao Xi is here, don''t think you can stop me. "


    "Vice Guild Leader, this trip is dangerous, I''ll go with you." Qin Xiao suddenly stood up and gave Su Qian a fiery slap.


    She knew deep in her heart that she could not stop Lin Xing from valuing his friendship. It would be better for her to go with the flow and push the boat forward, in order to increase the goodwill she held in Lin Qi''s heart.


    Su Qian was about to go mad from anger. He raised his trembling fingers and pointed at Lin Xing and Qin Xiao as he cursed, "Fine, all of you go. But if Fist Rush City is in the wrong, I won''t let you off."


    When he finished, he swung his head and left. He could only stay and endure the anger.


    Lin Qi sighed as he retracted his gaze, looking at her departing back. He then turned to Qin Xiao and said, "Fine, come with me. As for those from your hall, they must stay."


    He did not reject Qin Xiao''s request and agreed.


    "That''s only natural. I''m not that stupid." Qin Xiao jeered and blinked her eyes.


    Lin Xing was speechless. Qin Xiao was actually still in the mood to express her feelings at such a critical juncture.


    Just then, Seven Blades gathered a large group of people and said to Lin Xing, "Deputy Chief, I have gathered seventy-two people, and two of them are outstanding people. They are all willing to follow the deputy chief and go through fire and water. "


    "Well, thank you. I promise you, I will not let one of you die. " Lin Xing solemnly said with a sonorous voice.


    Logically speaking, this was his personal matter and he shouldn''t have meddled with the World Alliance''s members. However, with just his strength alone, how could he rescue the Hall of Mausoleum of Martialism from the massive beast tide?


    He made a long story short and did not waste any more time. He led the seven scimitars, Qin Xiao, and seventy-two people down the city wall and headed towards the Alliance.


    Before he left, he warned Zhu Liang and Han Xuan to guard the city well and that he would return within two days.


    He and his group of old friends were part of the Vault of Legends, and the World Alliance was more like his home. If he were to go save an old friend, he had to protect this home well.


    Lin Qi and the rest were all freaks of the Heavenly Cauldron. Each of them was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the sight of the crowd on the city wall.


    On the tower, Su Qian let out a sigh as he watched them leave. It was a sigh filled with melancholy and helplessness.

 C190

    The World Conqueror Alliance wasn''t too far away from the World Conclave''s territory. Lin Xing led a group of Fist Hall Scholars and finally arrived at the World Conclave''s territory after eight hours.


    Along the way, Lin Xing had seen far too many corpses of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters and Vicious Beasts, as well as many dilapidated city walls.


    He had also seen the traces left behind by the Earth Flame before. Within a hundred miles of this land, a large part of the forest had been incinerated, leaving nothing but pitch-black ashes.


    The Earth Flame that appeared this time wasn''t just the one that was charging down towards the city.


    Lin Xing ignored the cries for help that came from the city and ordered everyone to rush towards Zhan Tian without stopping.


    At this time, they had arrived at a place not far away from the Demon Spirit City. After the battle, they heard that Chu Jin and her remaining subordinates had pledged their allegiance to the Black Tortoise World Alliance, and that the Battle Alliance was unable to send people to guard the city.


    Lin Qi cast a deep glance at the tall city walls, and without further ado, he rushed towards the palace.


    He couldn''t help but say in surprise, "Alliance Master, I heard that among the four cities that Zhan Tian had broken into, the people from the city have already taken refuge in the main city of the World Alliance, and that the Hall of the Abyss Moon has also been uprooted. Now, it might even be an empty city that is occupied by a beast tide, so if we go there, it would be a waste of time."


    Lin Xing slightly wrinkled his brow. Seven Rolling Knives was not unreasonable. Not to mention that the Vajra Palace was the weakest within the World Alliance, so it was only a matter of time before they were destroyed by the beast tide.


    However, he was still a bit worried and said, "Let''s go to the City of Limitless Moon first."


    As he spoke, he madly rushed towards the direction of the palace.


    If the people from the Dian Yue Hall were to head to Battling Heavenly Lord City now, the consequences wouldn''t be too serious. It wouldn''t be a problem for him to head there a little later, but what if they didn''t go to Battling Heavenly Lord City?


    Sure enough, when they arrived at the entrance of the palace, they saw a large number of demonic beasts violently attacking the palace. At the same time, dozens of silhouettes battling with vicious beasts could be seen on the city walls.


    The entire city was riddled with holes, and the defensive formation had lost its effect of healing on its own. There were loopholes everywhere, and vicious beasts could be seen everywhere.


    All of the beasts inside the city had gathered together and were howling in pain.


    From the same position and angle, he recalled the first time he encountered a beast tide.


    Upon hearing the shocking human''s pitiful cries, he did not hesitate to draw out his two swords and decisively charged forward.


    When the seven scimitars, Qin Xiao, and the seventy-two people saw this, they immediately followed him and charged towards the surging beast tide below the city.


    Roar ¡­


    Lin Xing directly used his sword skill. No matter how strong a vicious beast was, with a flash of a sword light, they would undoubtedly die. There was no way for them to dodge that killing blow.


    Large groups of bodies collapsed, and blood flowed all over the ground. The group of people following behind walked along the corpses with almost no effort at all. They all relied on Lin Xing to display his godly might in front of them.


    A change occurred outside the city, immediately attracting the attention of most of the vicious beasts. They immediately turned the spearheads around and pounced towards the group.


    At this time, Lin Xing had already brought over seventy men to climb the city walls. They had been fighting bloody battles the entire way inside, but not a single one of them had died.


    Lin Xing and his men were slaughtering their way through the city again. Blood stained his clothes red. His body was in a sorry state, but he was also brimming with energy and vitality. His two swords were pointed out inch by inch, causing the group of beasts to tremble in fear.


    In the middle of the battle, Lin Xing saw a shadow. That person''s entire body was glowing with a precious light, making him look like a small sun. His magic was extremely powerful, and every damage dealt had a ton of strength.


    Around him, the corpses of the vicious beasts were piled up all over the ground. The stench of blood immediately spread to the heavens. His combat strength was too terrifying; he killed all of the surrounding beasts.


    His body was also covered in blood. His long hair was in a mess and he looked exhausted. Under the intense attacks, even with his combat strength, he was almost unable to endure it.


    He was Mu Rui, a Heaven Ranked monster beneath the three giants of Battling Heavens. His cultivation had also reached the speed of the heavens, and he was a true expert.


    No wonder...


    No wonder the city had only fallen by a small half until now. So it turns out to be because of him, a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant, that''s not hard to explain, Lin Xing thought to himself.


    At the same time, Mu Rui also noticed the commotion coming from this direction. When his gaze made contact with Lin Qi, his eyes revealed a trace of astonishment. Then, he saw the many Qi warriors following behind him.


    Soon after, joy emerged on his face. He shifted his gaze away, raised his hand, and smashed a fierce beast into pieces. He continued to fight, and the more he fought, the more valiant he became.


    Lin Qi also shifted his gaze away from him. At this moment, he saw a familiar figure. From the battle power she displayed, he could tell that she was a talented person.


    It was Meng Luo Yu!


    Lin Qi held his two swords and killed all the beasts in front of him in an instant, leaving a trail of blood. Then, he quickly approached Meng Luo Yu.


    "It''s you!" I never would have thought that I would die. "


    When Meng Luo Yu saw Lin Xing almost fall from the sky, her beautiful eyes were filled with shock, which then turned into gratitude. Finally, she sighed deeply and said a few words.

 C191

    Lin Qi smiled, but he did not say anything. He was repaying the favor, returning the favor.


    Meng Luo Yu naturally knew what he was thinking. With a bitter smile, she raised her head, and her beautiful face once again shone with light.


    At this moment, a group of Qi warriors from the Hall of Falling Moon had also gathered around. Among them were the old acquaintances of Lin Xing, Kun Yun, and Qu Ying ¡­


    "Drive all the fierce beasts out of the city."


    Lin Xing looked at the approaching Seven Rolling Sabers and Qin Xiao and issued an unquestionable but extremely serious order.


    The two of them obeyed Lin Xing''s orders. After receiving the order, they did not refute at all. Instead, they led their subordinates and scattered in all directions, attacking the beasts within the city.


    Meng Luo Yu, and the people from the Lush Moon Hall were all incomparably shocked when they saw this.


    It had only been a few days!


    In that instant, Lin Xing''s status changed drastically. He ordered the two of them to act as if they were playing around, not daring to resist at all.


    They could only shake their heads and bitterly smile. Even if they couldn''t accept it, they still had to accept it. After the battle at the Demon Spirit City, Lin Xing was destined to not be an ordinary mortal within the Heavenly Cauldron.


    A group of World Alliance members with astonishing fighting strength joined the battle, causing the entire battlefield to be in a one-sided battle. In a short period of time, all the beasts had been chased out of the city, and when the beasts outside the city found it hard to chew, they gradually retreated.


    Following that, Qin Xiao and Seven-rolled Knife returned to Lin Xing''s side and stood respectfully beside him.


    Mu Rui had long since walked over.


    However, they did not talk much because after this intense battle, they were extremely tired and each of them found a place to rest.


    At this moment, Lin Xing''s eyes swept across the crowd. His heart sank into the abyss, and his face became incomparably cold.


    He shouted at Meng Luo Yu and Kun Yun, "Where is Zi Shi?"


    He was furious. If anything happened to Mo Zishan, he believed that he would definitely be furious.


    He had a close relationship with his son, Shi Yan, and although they had only known each other for two short days, it had been more than a few decades.


    His anger immediately startled everyone, even Mu Rui and Meng Luo Yu.


    Mu Rui''s expression instantly changed into one of displeasure, and he wanted to get angry. As a Tianshou, he had his own pride. When had it ever been for someone like him to throw his own face in front of him?


    However, when he thought of Lin Xing''s righteous actions towards the palace, he suppressed his anger and had no choice but to snort before turning his head to the side.


    "Brother Lin, don''t be impatient." "Listen to me." Kun Yun walked up and gently said, "Brother Lin, don''t worry. Zi Shi already left the Heavenly Cauldron yesterday."


    Hearing this, Lin Qi let out a long breath, and the worry in his heart finally subsided.


    Then, with a guilty expression, he said, "Sorry, I was impulsive."


    "It''s alright. I know that Brother Lin is worried about Zi Shi''s safety. Now that I know he''s safe, the haze in my heart should be lifted." Kunyun smiled.


    Lin Qi smiled and nodded, his gaze sweeping over Kunyun and the complicated looking Qu Ying, and said, "When did you leave the Heavenly Cauldron? When that time comes, we can come to the World Alliance and bid our farewells to me. "


    "Qu Ying and I will be leaving in about ten days. Before we leave, we will definitely bid our farewells to Brother Lin. I have an agreement with Zi Shi and Qu Ying that the three of us will meet again at the Reincarnation Sect in two years. "


    With a face full of smiles, Kun Yun''s expression revealed a beautiful look of longing. After he finished speaking, he even raised his head and looked towards the distant horizon.


    Qu Ying''s expression became bashful as she stared at Lin Xing and stammered, "Brother Lin ¡­" Will you go then? "


    "I will go as well. When the time comes, the four of us can meet again."


    Lin Xin gazed at Qu Ying with a pair of delicate eyes, his heart filled with guilt towards her. Perhaps it was because of Gao Changming, or perhaps it was because of something else, he could not describe that feeling himself.


    "Vice chief, I''ll be going as well." Qin Xiao suddenly opened her mouth, purposely rubbing her chest against Lin Xing''s shoulder as she looked at Qu Ying and Kunyun with a provocative expression.


    Lin Qi was speechless. He changed the topic and said to Meng Luo Yu, "Why don''t you all follow me back to the World Alliance?"


    As soon as Mu Rui heard these words, his face collapsed. He tightly clenched his fists, and an ear-piercing crackling sound could be heard.


    Lin Xing was too impudent. He was trying to poach Chu Feng in front of him. He was simply looking down on everyone. Did Chu Feng think that Chu Feng did not even exist?


    Meng Luo Yu''s answer made his expression soften, and he couldn''t help but sneer.


    Meng Luo Yu decisively rejected him, saying in a very decisive tone, "I''m not going, my family is my home in the Heavenly Cauldron, I won''t turn my back on them, and I won''t turn my back on the Alliance Head. Furthermore, I only have eight days before I leave the Heavenly Cauldron, so there''s no need for that."


    "Fine." Lin Qi sighed and stopped trying to change the situation. Meng Luo Yu had her own beliefs, and others could not change them.


    He had once heard from Su Qian that Meng Luo Yu had an extremely high reputation. In the entire world, her background was well-known as a dragon head.


    Actually, with his talent, he could have long since advanced to the Heaven Smiting Stage and activated the Heavenly Cauldron. However, he continued to suppress his cultivation, and only after Meng Luo Yu activated the Heavenly Cauldron, did he finally advance to the Heaven Smiting Stage, and then step into the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Su Qian said that Xiao Lin had entered the Heavenly Cauldron to protect Meng Luo Yu. As for whose orders she was under, Su Qian did not know.


    Later on, because both of them entered at different times, they were teleported to different locations. Meng Luo Yu entered the World Alliance, while Xiao Lin chose to serve in the World Alliance.


    Not long after, with his heaven-defying talent and formidable strength, Xiao Xi had ascended to the top of the Heavenly Cauldron. He had become the leader of the alliance and had become one of the top experts in the entire Heavenly Cauldron.

 C192

    At this moment, the danger in the city had been temporarily lifted, and the beasts would not retaliate for a short period of time. By the time the counterattack came back, the people from the Hall of Archaic Waves would have recovered their spirits, and there was no longer a need for Lin Xing to stay.


    It had been almost six hours since he left the World Alliance. He did not know what was going on, but he needed to hurry back in case something happened.


    He ordered the crowd to organize themselves and then bid farewell to Meng Luo Yu and the rest.


    The biggest crisis had been resolved, and there was also the beast tide below. After resting, they were able to completely withstand it, although they could not bear to let Lin Xing leave, but they were well aware that he had an important task on his shoulders. To be able to come and rescue their Hall at such a critical time, they were truly considerate.


    In the end, under the endless thanks of the people from the Hall of the Crescent Moon, Lin Xing forced out a smile and led his seventy-two subordinates away.


    However, just as two people left the city gates, Lin Xing saw a figure dashing towards him from afar, heading straight for the city. Lin Qi went up to Mu Rui and whispered a few words into his ear, Mu Rui''s face instantly turning the color of a pig''s liver, and he quickly walked up to Meng Luo Yu to say a few words.


    Meng Luo Yu''s face also instantly darkened, she hastily shouted towards the city walls: "Wait!"


    Lin Xing looked back at her with a frown.


    "Our Alliance Master wants to meet you in Battling Heavenly Capital. Regarding the matter from before, she wants to apologize to you in person." Meng Luo Yu tried her best to soften her tone, but Lin Xing could still hear the anxiousness in her tone.


    "Luo Yu, you think too much. At that time, underneath Demon Spirit City, I fought alone against a hundred Qi warriors and two elites. I died miserably, but did anyone from the Warring Heaven Alliance help me? But now that Battling Heavens City is facing a life and death crisis, Lu Qi actually thought of me. If I help her out and ignore my safety, what would my Qi warriors say about me? "


    Lin Qi knew that Meng Luo Yu was lying and invited him to the Main City as a pretense. His real intention was to get him to solve the crisis in the Main City, so he spoke passionately without any mercy.


    His words made Meng Luo Yu''s face turn red, then white, and she couldn''t bring herself to retort.


    After which, Lin Xing turned his head and prepared to leave. However, a silhouette appeared in front of him. This was a young man, running from afar, his figure was like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared right in front of him.


    His body was in a sorry state, and his face was covered in dirt. There were many wounds left on his body by the beast claws. It was a shocking sight, and even now, blood was still dripping from them.


    "Excuse me, may I ask if you are Vice President Lin Xing?" As soon as that person approached, he impatiently cupped his fist and asked Lin Qi while breathing heavily and sweating profusely.


    Lin Xing wrinkled his brow and looked at him, replying, "Yes, I wonder who you are?"


    That person was immediately overjoyed when he heard this. He didn''t say anything further and hurriedly took out a pile of top quality spirit crystals from his soul cave. They scattered all over the ground, emitting a resplendent brilliance that attracted others'' attention.


    "I am Ji Yuan and am in the service of the Star Dance World Alliance. Currently, I am working under the deputy chief of the Ji Beast Alliance, and the deputy chief said that we are old acquaintances, so he asked me to bring 5,000 top grade spirit crystals to find you and invite you to my Star Dance World Alliance''s Immortal Dish Hall to explain the beast tide." That person said in one breath.


    When the others heard this, they revealed surprised expressions. They were not shocked by the five thousand top grade spirit crystals, but by the word ''old friend''.


    When did Lin Xing become friends with Ji Beast?


    Even Meng Luo Yu and the others on the tower were at a loss.


    He was one of the three giants of the Star Dance, and was much more famous than Mu Rui in the Heavenly Cauldron. He was on the same level as an expert like Xiao Lin.


    "Oh? Immortal Pot Hall? Your Vice Alliance Master''s name is already out in the open, and he''s even so powerful as the Heavenly Cauldron. Why would he ask a small figure like me to save him? " Lin Xing narrowed his eyes and asked.


    "The deputy chief has four halls under his command, and they are being attacked more and more fiercely by the beast tide. She has no means of being separated, and more than half of the Immortal Pendant City has already fallen into the hands of the beast tide. If deputy chief Lin does not go and save her, our Immortal Pond Palace will be in danger." Ji Yuan answered with difficulty.


    "According to what I have heard, there are one hundred and fifteen Scholars and two outstanding people in the Celestial Plate Hall. Since you have already reached such a level, you only took out five thousand top quality spirit crystals to request for my help? I would like to ask, is the life of the people from the Celestial Plate Hall so lowly? " Lin Qi laughed with disdain.


    He placed the weapon horizontally in front of his palms and passed it to Lin Qi, saying, "I heard that Alliance Master Lin is a sword immortal, she had me pass this sword to Alliance Head Lin. This sword is called the Ice Demon Sword, it is a godly ancient weapon, and if Alliance Head Lin agrees to rescue Immortal Pot Palace, then this sword will belong to you. With this sword, Alliance Master Lin''s sword skills will definitely be even better."


    "Ice Demon Sword."


    Lin Qi''s pupils constricted as he stared at the five meter long sword that was emitting a cold light. The sword emanated a chilling aura as it cried out, "Good sword!"


    Following that, he received the Ice Demon Sword and examined it for a long time before putting it into his soul hole. He then ordered Qin Xiao to store the top five thousand top grade spirit crystals on the ground.


    Seeing his actions, Ji Yuan was wild with joy. He could not help but ask: "Is it considered that Vice-President Lin has agreed?"


    "Lead the way." Lin Xing nodded and led over seventy subordinates to follow Ji Yuan to the Celestial Plate Hall.

 C193

    The reason why Lin Qi had agreed to this was because he had thought it through carefully. On the way back to the city, he would pass by the area of the Star Dance World Alliance. He would only be passing by on his way, and wouldn''t take too long.


    Furthermore, he had another five thousand top grade spirit crystals and a divine artifact, the Ice Demon Sword, to entice him. To be honest, it was difficult for him to reject them even if he wanted to, and Qin Xiao and the seven scimitars would not agree.


    "Seems like it''s filled with greed."


    On top of the city gate tower, Mu Rui''s face was extremely purple as he let out a heavy, cold snort. At the same time, his right fist pounded on the city wall, causing cracks to appear on the wall.


    Meng Luo Yu shook her head and smiled bitterly. She gazed at the back view of Lin Qi and the others as they left. In the end, she could not help but sigh deeply. Only after a long time did she retract her gaze.


    Not even two hours had passed, and under the lead of Ji Yuan, Lin Xing led a large group of people to the Immortal Pond City.


    The situation in this city was extremely terrible, even worse than that of the palace. More than half of the city walls had been destroyed, and the piles of corpses were scattered all over the ground, covered in bloodstains, wailing and wailing. There were even traces of Earth Flames attacking the city, leaving behind pitch-black ashes.


    Since he was short on manpower, Lin Xing did not hesitate. After arriving at the outskirts of the city, he ordered Qin Xiao to fight against the Seven Rolling Knives and attack the horde of beasts.


    Lin Xing took this opportunity to take out the Ice Demon Sword from his soul hole. Holding the sword in his right hand, he charged into the beast tide with the sword shining with a five meter long light in his hand.


    This sword had a divinity. With each swing of the sword, it would emit a faint and clear sound. Moreover, it brought along a bone-piercing cold that contained a mysterious power.


    This power was similar to the Death God power, it was like strangling life force, and wherever this sword slashed, blood would flow out, and it would not stop until the blood was completely used up and he died.


    Some of the beasts had their limbs cut off, and their blood gushed out like spring water. Not long after, all of their blood was drained away.


    After a very long and fierce battle, when two more members of the Fist Hall were severely injured, Lin Xing and the others opened up a path of blood and climbed up the city wall.


    Then, he worked with the people from the Fairy Pot Hall to kill all the beasts in the city without leaving a single one behind.


    At the same time, the beast tide outside the city saw powerful reinforcements coming from the Fairy Pot Hall. They knew that the bones were hard to gnaw and also received the command from the back, so they immediately retreated back to the vast earth.


    Stepping into the city, Lin Qi swept his eyes over the bloodstained streets, and then glanced at the numerous human corpses lying on the ground. He was silent for a long time, expressing his sympathy and grief.


    In short, the scene could only be described as tragic.


    They were all freaks and freaks of the Heavenly Cauldron, all sorts of prodigies and geniuses. But, they didn''t want to die at the hands of a beast tide within the Heavenly Cauldron. It was truly ironic.


    The remaining dozens of people in the Immortal Dish Hall were all injured or lightly injured. They all supported each other as they walked over. Many of them simultaneously called out to Hall Master Ji Yuan before giving Lin Xing and the rest grateful looks.


    "Ai!"


    Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan couldn''t help but let out a long sigh. The Celestial Plate Palace was his painstaking effort and was his home within the Heavenly Cauldron. Because of this beast tide, he had lost half of his troops.


    Qin Xiao and Seven Rolling Blades were similarly hall masters, so they naturally understood his tragic state of mind. Their faces revealed a look of sympathy, and Seven Rolling Blades even walked over to pat him on the shoulder to comfort him.


    Ji Yuan calmed himself down and tried his best to suppress the pain in his heart. His expression returned to normal as he said to Lin Xing, "Many thanks to Alliance Head Lin for your help this time. Otherwise, our Hall would have been in danger."


    "Of course." Lin Xing''s lips moved as he expressionlessly said those two words.


    Hearing this, Ji Yuan shook his head with a bitter smile, but his gratitude did not decrease. He hugged his fist a few more times before letting it go. Then, he took out a bunch of pills from his soul cave and fed them to the remaining disciples of the Celestial Plate Hall according to the severity of their injuries.


    After that, he gave some medicinal pills to the seventy or so injured people under Lin Xing''s command.


    Seeing his actions, Lin Qi nodded his head in satisfaction. At least he had a bit of conscience.


    After a short period of rest, the danger in the Immortal Dish Hall had been resolved, and everything was complete. Lin Xing wanted to lead a group of people to leave, but unexpectedly, two figures dashed out from the forest outside the city.


    The two of them were extremely fast and only left behind blurry afterimages. Looking at their location, the two figures were a lady with a devastatingly beautiful face and a unique looking person with a body covered in red light.


    The woman had long eyebrows and wore simple green clothes. Her skin was like ice, and her bones were like jade. Her beauty could topple cities and her temperament gave off an unapproachable feeling. When she appeared, all of the women immediately felt inferior.


    As for the young man, he was tightly standing behind the female. Although his cultivation was lower than her, his actions revealed that he was carefully protecting her.


    Lin Qi had seen the two people who had suddenly arrived. One was Ji Beast, and the other was the goatee.

 C194

    Lin Qi looked at the two of them, his eyes stayed on Ji Beast for a long time, because she was too stunning. Her beautiful face was like a moth with eyebrows, and her beautiful eyes had a spirit of its own, looking so white and flawless that people couldn''t help but want to be intimate with her, but also gave people a feeling of distance away from her.


    Looking at her exquisite facial features, even with Lin Qi''s temperament, a momentary infatuation appeared in his eyes. This was the only unrivaled beauty he had ever seen who could compare to this brat, Liang Liang.


    "Brother Lin, we have parted many days ago. Now that we meet again, I truly have a whole new level of respect for you. At that time, you shook the Demon Spirit and a newcomer dared to challenge the strongest branch palace in Zhan Tian. When I heard this news, I was stunned for a very long time."


    Ji Shou lightly bared his teeth as he stared at Lin Qi with a pair of bright eyes that were filled with undisguised awe.


    If it was anyone else who heard the praise of Ji Beast, they would have already been dancing with joy.


    Lin Qi, on the other hand, was different. He had a serious expression on his face as he calmly replied, "It''s just an act of helplessness. If I had to choose again, I would not have acted so rashly. At least I would not have killed someone in the open."


    As he finished speaking, his voice suddenly became ice-cold. It was filled with viciousness and a strong sense of threat.


    Currently, Brother Lin holds a high position as the deputy chief of the Alliance. As a newcomer, it is no doubt that you will reach the heavens in a single step and Xiao Lin will leave in a few days. At that time, the position of chief of the Alliance will undoubtedly belong to Brother Lin. Ji Beast changed the topic and said with a smile.


    Lin Xing immediately laughed, "That''s only natural. I''ve only been in the Heavenly Cauldron for half a month and I don''t know many people. The only one I know is Lady Ji, so naturally, I''m connected to her heart. But then again, since our World Alliance is so talented, how could a newcomer like me be the leader? Miss Ji is praising me too much. "


    Listening to the conversation between the two, the expressions of the people around them were different. The Seven Rolling Saber and Qin Xiao did not have much of an expression on their faces. On the other hand, Ji Yuan, Sheep''s Nest and the rest of the people from the Acropolis World Alliance had looks of shock.


    It was obvious that their deputy chief, Ji Shou, valued Lin Xing very highly. Many people shot him envious looks. To be able to obtain the favor of Ji Shou, this was an extremely rare occurrence within the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Then, he thought about it. After all, Lin Xing had solved the encirclement of the beast tide in the Celestial Plate Palace, so it was only natural for Ji and Beast Beast to act a bit closer to each other.


    Beast Tamer Ji chuckled but didn''t say anything. When he heard Lin Xing''s words, he couldn''t help but secretly roll his eyes at him. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by a savage voice.


    "Brat, I advise you to not fail to appreciate our kindness. When beasts praise you, that is because they think highly of you. Also, you better not have any other thoughts."


    The person who spoke was Sheep Sheep Sheep Shed. In the entire Xing Wu World, he was the only one who dared to call a beast with outstanding strength. He pointed a burning finger at Lin Qi with a fiendish look.


    He stared at Lin Xing, his heart equally shocked. He knew the length of time Lin Xing had entered the Heavenly Cauldron better than he did. In just a few days, his status had undergone a tremendous change, to the point where he almost couldn''t climb higher.


    However, in the Heavenly Cauldron, strength was the most important factor. Lin Xing being able to ascend to the position of deputy chief was most likely due to his luck. Although he was under Lin Xing''s status, he was not afraid of him in his heart.


    Lin Qi smiled helplessly. It seemed that Sheep''s Shed thought of him as an imaginary enemy.


    Lin Xing turned a blind eye to his words and ignored him. He continued to smile at Ji Beast and said, "Miss Ji, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. I don''t want anyone to bite me twice."


    Ji Mu glanced at Yang Shu''s ashen face from the corner of his eyes, and then said to Lin Xing in a euphemistic manner, "That''s good too, now that the beast tide has not been decided, brother Lin, it''s time for you to go back. When Brother Lin ascends to the position of Alliance Head, don''t forget the agreement between us."


    "Of course." Lin Qi nodded with a smile. Then, he turned around and led the group of people away.


    "You can leave, but you must leave the Ice Demon Sword behind."


    However, before he could even take two steps, the Sheep''s Shed''s barbaric voice once again rang out in everyone''s ears, causing him to stop in his tracks.


    He turned his head to look at Sheep Sheep Shop with a cold gaze and said, "This Ice Demon Sword was exchanged with the lives of a large number of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters. If you want to return, it''s not out of the question, but I want to take all of them."


    Hearing this, the faces of Ji Beast, Ji Yuan, and the other people from the Celestial Plate Hall instantly turned red. Their faces were filled with anger, but of course, it wasn''t all because of Lin Xing.


    If they went back on their word, what would the Stardance World Alliance be able to do after entering the Heavenly Cauldron to establish a foothold?


    Arrogant. Even if you wanted to take them away, they would not leave with a completely new person like you. I advise you to be more low-key. Sheep''s Shed sneered repeatedly. It was full of threat.


    "Motherf * cker! Sheep house letter, you actually dared to throw our Vice Alliance Master''s face. I think you must be tired of living." Seven Rolling Knives immediately jumped up and cursed loudly, causing even Caragana to move out of the way.


    "Haha ¡­" Lin Qi abruptly stopped laughing. His ice-cold radiance shot towards Sheep''s Nest as he ridiculed, "So your Stardance World Alliance does not lack ungrateful beasts."

 C195

    The atmosphere suddenly became stiff after their exchange of words. Both sides were in a stalemate, and the atmosphere was thick with the smell of gunpowder, ready to go to war.


    "Enough, Sheep''s Nest, get the hell back now, don''t embarrass yourself here."


    Ji Beast finally couldn''t hold his anger any longer, and glared at the sheep shed with a furious face.


    "I''ll give you another five thousand top grade spirit crystals and return the Ice Demon Sword to the beast. If you don''t agree, then I don''t mind dying today."


    Looking at his serious and fierce expression, Lin Xing couldn''t help but furrow his brows. It didn''t seem like a joke at all. The Ice Demon Sword seemed to be very important to Ji Beast.


    "The Ice Demon Sword belongs to our deputy chief, there''s no need to return it. Don''t even think about it. As for the death net, we have never been afraid of anyone." Qin Xiao slowly spoke as she looked up with a look of disdain on her face.


    "What do you know? The Ice Demon Sword is the only relic left behind by the beast''s mother ¡­"


    The sheep house letter was filled with anger, and its teeth were grinding loudly. However, before it could finish, it was interrupted by Ji Beast''s reprimanding.


    "Shut up."


    "Beasts ¡­" Sheep''s Shed growled in indignation and gnashed his teeth.


    "Shut up." The expression on Ji Beast''s face became even colder, and he started to emit cold air, looking extremely terrifying.


    Listening up to here, Lin Xing''s heart was in turmoil. He could not help but glance at Sheep Shed in surprise. His love for Ji Shou and Beast was close to madness.


    When he heard the two words'' relic, ''he had thought of returning the Ice Demon Sword, but when he thought that he would face an even greater crisis in the future, he ruthlessly suppressed his compassion.


    I do not know how important this sword is to you, but since it has already been handed over to me, I do not want to return it easily. I think that you should know a little about my situation, how about this, if I can survive the exit of the Sky Cauldron. Lin Xing said sincerely.


    The expression on Ji Beast''s face changed. Without any hesitation, he waited for a long time before he replied, "Brother Lin, thank you for your concern. This sword, sigh. I hope you can take good care of it for me. "


    With that, Ji Beast turned around and left. Seeing this, there was no need for the sheep shed to stay, so she also followed her with a groan.


    "Of course." Lin Qi stared at her back, his tone firm as he spat out these two words.


    Then, with a smile, he bid farewell to Ji Yuan and led a group of people back to the World Alliance''s area.


    The speed of their return was much faster than when they first arrived. Most of them were burning with anxiety, because this time, they were rushing back to their home in the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Not long after, they arrived at the front of the city and returned safely. Not a single person was killed, at most, they would be severely injured. They would be able to recover after taking two more Ling Dans.


    Looking up at the gentle faces on the city gate tower, Lin Xing and the Seven Rolling Blades could finally relax.


    Below the city gate tower, there were piles of new corpses of vicious beasts. It was clear that after they left, another wave of vicious beasts attacked. What made people happy was that they were successfully stopped in the end.


    Rushing up the city wall, they immediately saw Zhu Liang, Han Xuan, and their subordinates in the hall.


    Lin Qi stared at them. Just as he was about to ask about the battle situation, a lady with a green complexion walked up to them.


    "Heh, I thought you wouldn''t be able to come back, so I was planning to send someone to collect your corpse."


    A deputy chief who disregarded the safety of the four halls under his command and actually went to rescue some Battle Sky Splitting Moon Palace was simply too childish. Fortunately, Fist Rush was fine, if there was anything wrong, then she would not be as simple as simply throwing a tantrum.


    Towards Su Qian''s harsh words, although Lin Xing was angry, he could not refute them. Thus, he could only keep a straight face and pretend that he did not hear them.


    "Hmph, I don''t have the time to mess with you right now. The Alliance Head sent a messenger just now, telling you to quickly report the situation of this battle to the Main City." Su Qian curled his lips and said.


    "Oh? A hundred years of rare beast tide has passed? " Lin Qi''s eyebrows twitched. When he saw Su Qian nodding his head, a look of joy emerged on his face.


    "There''s no time to lose, hurry up and come with me. The chief doesn''t like waiting for people." Su Qian said in a low voice. He had been treating Lin Xing very badly.


    Lin Qi was speechless. He knew that if Qin Xiao and the Seven Rolling Knife could become his trusted aides, Zhu Liang and Han Xuan would most likely follow his lead. Su Qian was the only one who didn''t, and Xiao Ting was her true religion.


    Before he left, Lin Xing ordered Xiao Xi to give him 5000 high quality spirit crystals. Whether or not he participated in this operation, as long as he had subordinates, they would all have a share.


    Five thousand top grade spirit crystals was not a small amount. It was more than enough to split it among several hundred people. The Fourth Palace Master simultaneously felt a sense of gratitude towards him. In particular, he was so excited that he could not control himself.


    In fact, they were rather embarrassed. After all, they hadn''t risked their lives to rescue Zhan Tian and the Crescent Moon Palace together, and had refused at first.


    Lin Xing said that if all of you were able to defend the city, then this achievement couldn''t be compared to anyone else''s.


    Hearing this, the two of them were moved to a complete mess. They immediately expressed their stance and followed Lin Xing Gan.

 C196

    In front of a grand hall in the main city.


    "Brother Lin, no, Vice Alliance Master Lin, you''ve hidden me so miserably."


    Lin Qi had not even stepped into the hall when he heard a sour voice standing in front of the door.


    He didn''t need to look up to know who the speaker was just based on the sound of his voice.


    "Brother He, it''s not that I want to hide it from you, but the vice president is a stranger. No matter what position I hold in the World Alliance, you should be on equal footing with me." Lin Qi lowered his stance and said to the approaching He Fei with a gentle smile.


    He Fei rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly for a while. He looked at Lin Xing with eyes full of praise.


    Lin Qi held a high position, but he did not put on any airs. This made his heart feel a lot more amiable.


    Before coming here, she specifically told him not to have any conflicts with Lin Qi or to have differences of opinion during the meeting. Everything would go according to his plan, because Xiao Miaomiao had already decided to take him on as her successor.


    At this moment, seeing Lin Xing''s amiable and gentle attitude, He Fei did not dare to hesitate and quickly cupped his fists together, "Deputy Alliance Master''s words are foreign. If I had known that Brother Lin was the new Deputy Alliance Master, then I would not have allowed Brother Lin to spend the Seven Immortal Flowers.


    "Spirit crystals are spirit crystals. These are two different things. If Brother He had really helped me pay for the spirit crystal, I would have felt bad and would not have agreed. Putting aside my identity, it''s better to speak freely in private since Brother He and I are friends at first sight. " Lin Xing said.


    He Fei''s face was full of joy as he said, "Of course."


    "Can Brother He tell me who is the head of the continent now?" Lin Qi pursed his lips and said with a cute expression.


    He Fei said with a wry smile, "This matter is a long story, but it''s not that I want to hide it from Brother Lin, but this session''s status is extremely mysterious. Every time she appears, she will wear a mask with a ghost face on her face, and I only know that she''s a young girl.


    "Oh?" Lin Xin Yi''s interest was piqued and he asked, "Then Brother He, do you know which World Alliance this woman works for?"


    He Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I am not sure about that. My guess is that the Conclave of Heavens does not belong to any World Alliance. If we had not been able to obtain protection in the beast tide, we would not have joined any World Alliance and would have been restricted. Only those Heavenly Hunters who have stepped into the Heaven Speeding Stage would be able to survive without the help of any cities. Therefore, many of the Heavenly Shou''s have not joined the World Alliance and still aspire to live a free life.


    "So that''s how it is."


    After hearing He Fei''s series of explanations, Lin Xing had a much more direct understanding of the Heavenly Hunters.


    Mentioning the World of the Sword, Lin Xing naturally thought of the girl with the Sword Eyes. He wanted to ask if He Fei had received any news about her.


    Unexpectedly, an angry female voice rang out and struck their heads like thunder, causing their eardrums to vibrate painfully.


    "Can the two of you continue chatting for another two hours?"


    The person who came was Su Qian Qian. She coldly stared at Lin Qi and He Fei, her face slightly red with anger.


    The deputy-chief and three other hall masters under the command of Mother Yan were all present. They had already drank three cups of tea. After waiting for a long time, the two of them still did not come in. What a big show of arrogance.


    When He Fei saw Su Qian Qian, his face was full of smiles. He walked over with a kind expression and smiled apologetically.


    The corners of Lin Xing''s mouth twitched as he looked at Su Qian Qian grudgingly. He then stepped into the hall.


    The main hall was very spacious, and bright lights were shining from all directions. Xiao Ri was sitting high up on the stage and exuding an imperial aura that made people not dare to look at him directly.


    Below, two rows of bronze chairs were arranged in a straight line. The left side was filled with the leader of the group, while the right side was empty. No one was seated.


    Originally, Xiao Xi had no intention of letting the hall master level higher ups participate in this alliance gathering. However, taking into account the fact that Lin Xing''s new deputy chief, there was a need to get to know them, so he only called for the Fourth Palace Master, who was under Niang Niang, to come over. He did not call the four people under Lin Xing''s command, Seven Rolling Knives, and the other two.


    In particular, with his infamous reputation, he had single-handedly killed over a hundred of the Demonic Spirit Palace''s Qi warriors. With his tyrannical strength, he had already killed over a hundred of the Demonic Spirit Hall''s Qi warriors.


    Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, Lin Xing gave a light smile and nodded to Xiao Lin and Yan Niang. Then, he calmly walked to the first bronze chair on the right and sat down, side by side with Yan Niang.


    Then, He Fei and Su Qian walked into the hall at the same time. He Fei sat in the seat next to Yan Niang, while Su Qian sat in the seat right below Lin Qi.


    Xiao Lin''s gaze was like lightning as it swept across the faces of the crowd below. Finally, it landed on Lin Qi. The majesty was completely gone and was instead filled with gentleness and undisguised gratitude.

 C197

    "Let me introduce him to everyone. He is Lin Xing, and at the same time, he is also the newly appointed deputy chief of our World Alliance."


    Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze, and the corner of his eyes twitched. His expression was cold and his voice was sonorous. He had reverted to his regal demeanor.


    These words echoed in the hall. Other than those who knew Lin Xing, everyone smiled at him with respect.


    In a few days, Xiao Lin would be leaving the Heavenly Cauldron. Lin Xing would most likely take over his class and take the position of chief of the alliance. This was also the reason why he was so respectful.


    Lin Qi also raised his head and smiled at the big fellow. It was a very innocent and gentle smile, like that of an elegant youth, harmless to humans or animals. If one didn''t know of his experience and true identity, then no one would be able to tell that he was the one who had slaughtered everyone beneath the Demon Spirit City, Lin Xing.


    Seeing that the atmosphere had stabilized, Xiao Lin nodded her head in satisfaction. It seemed that the World Alliance was of one mind, and after he had left, she could finally relax.


    "Vice President Lin, your side''s battle situation is quite good. Not to mention the fact that none of the four halls under your command have been destroyed by the beast tide, the number of casualties is also very few." You''ve only just arrived at our World Alliance and you''ve already accomplished such a great deed. I really don''t know how to reward you. " Xiao Xi smiled at Lin Qi in praise.


    When he heard this, Lin Qi stood up and stared straight at Xiao Lin, "The beast tide has swept up, and every single one of the Heavenly Cauldron freaks'' lives are in danger. Furthermore, this is a hundred year old beast tide, and no one dares to neglect it, for the reason that blocking the beast tide is equivalent to saving our lives, so I feel embarrassed to accept that reward."


    "Ai ¡­" That being said, do you know? This time, my World Alliance is going to win the championship because you''re feeling proud and proud again. You must be rewarded. This is my principle; if there''s merit and if there''s punishment, I will reward you with three thousand top quality spirit crystals. If it''s too little, I can add more. " Xiao Lin''s attitude was quite stiff. He couldn''t accept it.


    When the others heard this, they looked at each other in dismay, their expressions were filled with admiration.


    For an ordinary person to risk his life to protect his own city was already a great blessing, but for Lin Xing, he actually sent troops to rescue Zhan Tian Yue Hall and even removed the beast tide encirclement on the way.


    Because of this, the chief of the World Alliance sent someone to express his gratitude. This greatly increased the fame of the World Alliance. When the other World Alliance members heard this, they were stunned.


    Lin Xing reluctantly said, "Alright, I''ll accept the reward from the Alliance Master. I''ll give these three thousand top grade spirit crystals to everyone in the four halls. This time, they will be the main force, not just me."


    Lin Xing''s righteous actions caused him to become more amiable in the hearts of the crowd. He understood the general situation, valued friendship, and was decisive in his actions. His strength could be considered heaven-defying.


    "That''s right, I was not wrong about you. In front of this large amount of Spirit Crystals, I didn''t think of taking it all for myself. Instead, I thought of caring about my subordinates." Xiao Lin nodded his head in satisfaction. Even though he did not say that he would give the position of the chief to Lin Qi, anyone could hear the meaning behind his words.


    "In a while, I will go to the spirit library and collect the spirit crystals. I will do as Vice-President Lin says." Xiao Ai said.


    Amidst the cheers and laughter, Su Qian''s expression was the most unnatural. She would occasionally roll her eyes at Lin Qi. After hearing Xiao Lin''s words, she forced a smile on her face and nodded in agreement.


    Other people thought that Lin Xing valued friendship and friendship, but she thought that he was too heartless. Others thought that Lin Xing was aware of the general situation, but she thought that he was too childish.


    The beast tide had yet to retreat, but it had instead rushed in a flurry to rescue Zhan Tian''s Vault Moon Hall. This was fortunate that Fist Rush was fine, otherwise he would have been a sinner.


    "This time, our World Alliance has suffered the least casualties out of the 12 World Alliance, not a single city has been destroyed. This is truly a matter worthy of celebration." A pair of long legs together, the Oblivion Mother unfurled an intoxicating smile.


    "Yeah, this time even the Earth Flame has appeared. This is too terrifying. A hundred years ago, the Earth Flame did not appear in the world." Some of the Palace Lords still felt their hearts palpitate.


    There''s no need to mention the fact that I just received the news that the First World Alliance was the unluckiest. Two Earthly Flames appeared in the main city alone, and one Heavenly Hunter Monster fought with his life on the line to beat those two Earthly Flames. Another hall master''s words shocked him so much that even he himself was trembling in fear.


    Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time, including Xiao Lin.


    If even a Heaven Ranked monster had fallen, then it was obvious how terrifying the beast tide that was rarely seen in a hundred years was.


    "We''ve already endured a hundred years of rare great beast tide. Now, we can finally relax a bit." He Fei opened his mouth and breathed out a long sigh of relief.


    The others nodded in agreement, looking relaxed.


    In just a few days, Xiao Lin would be leaving the Heavenly Cauldron. Don''t forget, Chu Jin hated Lin Qi to the bones, and the bounty had not been withdrawn. With his sharp and harsh character, he would not let this matter rest.


    Following that, the group of upper echelons discussed another series of matters for a long time.


    For example, in repairing the city wall, which branch hall was weaker and how to distribute the resources evenly, Lin Xing listened quietly without uttering a single word. Occasionally, Su Qian would interject a few words, but they were all settled by Su Qian.

 C198

    The next day, Xiao Lin found Lin Qi, who was in the middle of cultivating, and said that he would bring him to a place. Lin Qi did not suspect him and followed him out of the main hall.


    As soon as he exited the hall, a layer of invisible energy descended on Lin Xing''s body, causing his feet to be lifted off the ground and propelling him into the air.


    The two figures flashed through the sky like two shooting stars, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.


    However, this scene was captured by the only person in the main city, the Oblivion Realm.


    As the two of them passed through the endless mountains and rivers, the domineering World Alliance area became an inconspicuous black dot. They passed through the seven other World Alliance areas, and only after about an hour did they stop at an ancient ruins.


    This place was filled with spiritual energy. The mountain valley was hidden, but the sky was completely dark. There were many places that emitted light. Although it was dark, it was still a place filled with life.


    Lin Xing looked around with a surprised expression. He saw a Qilin fruit, a Draconic Underworld Tree, an Earth Spirit Flower, and a bunch of other elixirs and medicines that only appeared in ancient books.


    The fact that it was right in front of his eyes made him extremely excited. If he could pick one or two and refine them when he returned, his cultivation base would definitely increase by leaps and bounds.


    To think that the Heavenly Cauldron would have such a divine holy land. He was truly amazed.


    However, what made his heart unhappy was that not only did he see a lot of divine medicines, he also saw a lot of people flying in the sky with shocking cultivation levels. Obviously, those people were all heaven class monsters.


    According to the situation, the spiritual medicines here were not that hard to come by.


    At this moment, Xiao Lin opened his mouth and completely wiped out the remaining hope in his heart. He then said, "Don''t even think about obtaining the elixirs here. A talented person does not have the qualifications to pick them.


    "A group of Tianshu monsters are attacking?" Lin Qi wiped away his sweat.


    "This place is called the Land of the Green God, and is ranked fifth among the 18 Great Forbidden Areas of the Heavenly Cauldron. This place is rather special, and does not have all the dangers of any other forbidden area, on the contrary, there are many heavenly treasures here, and there are even large amounts of spiritual medicines being produced every day. This kind of sacred land is not something that just anyone has the right to enjoy, so since ancient times, TianShou has monopolized it. Xiao Ai said.


    "Then why did you bring me here?" Lin Qi asked in surprise.


    As long as I bring you in, no one will dare to say anything. I''ve brought you here so that you can meet some of the heavyweights within the Heavenly Cauldron, after all, you will be my follower, and there is a need for you to get to know them, but you cannot pick any of the vegetation here. Xiao Lin said in a serious tone.


    "Understood." Lin Qi replied with an indifferent tone.


    "Let''s go, I''ll show you around."


    Instead of flying, he chose to walk. Seeing this, Lin Qi followed closely behind him.


    He took two steps forward and was immediately dazzled by what he saw. All kinds of rare medicinal herbs were present here, and they were extremely dazzling, to the point that it was even hard for him to take a look at them. He had even seen magical medicines that had already died down in the ancient times, and was certain to cause a sensation in the world if he took them out.


    But he could only look, he couldn''t touch, and even more so, he couldn''t take it off.


    His heart was bleeding. If he wasn''t clear about Xiao Lin''s personality, he would have suspected that Xiao Lin was deliberately tormenting him.


    Lin Qi tried his best to resist the pain. He pretended that he didn''t care as he quietly followed Xiao Hui.


    Not long after he left, three people successively descended from the sky and greeted Xiao Lin in a respectful tone.


    Lin Qi had underestimated Xiao Lin''s position within the Heaven Cauldron. The three people in front of him were all freaks of the Heaven Cauldron, but when he looked at Xiao Lin, his eyes were filled with reverence. This caused Lin Qi to be shocked.


    Xiao Lin replied politely. Then, the three of them did not stay any longer. They gazed at Lin Qi for a while before flying towards the sky.


    After the three of them left, Xiao Xi introduced the three of them to Lin Xing one by one, in accordance with their appearance and attire.


    It was meaningless. These three people were either World Alliance giants or powerful experts. However, what surprised Lin Qi the most was that Xiao Lin clearly knew of their background.


    "The world is vast and boundless. The location where their chief resides and the sect they are cultivating in, according to you, should be very far away. How did their chief find out about their background?" Lin Qi asked, puzzled.


    "Everyone has their own vanity, and the Heavenly Hunters and Monsters are no exception. They have all reported their respective sects to the world''s leading forces. After arriving at the Heavenly Cauldron, they naturally wanted to use this opportunity to exude pride." A strange light flashed across Xiao Lin''s eyes as he laughed in disdain.


    Lin Qi''s heart was relieved. When he heard the contempt in Xiao Yan''s words, he could not help but feel his heart tremble. Although he did not explicitly state it, he could guess that Xiao Lin''s background was even more terrifying than the Dragon Head level forces.

 C199

    As he thought of this, Lin Xing suddenly felt a sense of inferiority. In terms of background, it would be difficult to find anyone more pitiful than him in the entire Heavenly Cauldron.


    Even if he was a disciple of the Sky Sect, in front of the background of these people, he was still a desolate mountain that was not worth mentioning.


    Only then would they have the qualifications to be called ''dragon heads''. In Lin Xing''s impression, the most powerful sect came from the Sacred Land of the Divine Mountains, but as far as he knew, the Heavy Sect also didn''t have any dragon heads or weapons. In this world, it could at most be considered a first-rate power, and it was barely able to do so.


    How could they even talk about ascending the Sky Sect?


    Lin Qi felt helpless, and could only sigh as he flew away. Whether it was in terms of birth or talent, he couldn''t even compare.


    If he hadn''t received the inheritance of Hierarch Cangtian and diligently cultivated, with just his Ancient God Physique, it would have been difficult for him to accomplish anything in the Heavenly Cauldron. It would have been great if he could have saved his life before leaving.


    In his short time at the Heavenly Cauldron, he had seen too many monsters. His physique was much more powerful than that of the ancient gods.


    Withdrawing his feelings of inferiority, he calmed himself down and continued to follow Xiao Ting.


    Right at this moment, a golden star suddenly appeared in the pitch-black sky. Although it was extremely small, it was exceptionally eye-catching in this place.


    Lin Qi and Xiao Xun simultaneously looked up at the sky in amazement. At the same time, they saw numerous figures of Heaven''s Shou flying towards the golden light.


    Without a doubt, this was a strange treasure that suddenly appeared without any forewarning.


    This was a common occurrence in the Land of the Green God. However, the items that appeared in the dark sky were definitely much more precious than the elixirs growing on the ground. Every time they appeared, a large number of Heavenly Shou would fight over them.


    However, just as they approached the golden star, they saw it rapidly descending. It drew a resplendent light in the dark night sky, its speed comparable to lightning.


    At the same time, both Lin Qi and Xiao Zhi were stunned. They were caught off guard as they realized that the golden star was shooting towards them.


    Before the two of them could react, Venus was already right in front of Lin Qi. It then drilled into his forehead and into his brain. What shocked Lin Xing the most was that Venus had actually charged into the golden mace space.


    In the next moment, seven figures descended from the sky and landed in front of Xiao Jian and Lin Qi.


    Before Lin Qi could observe the golden star in the mace, he saw a large amount of angry and disdainful gazes shooting towards him.


    The deterrent force of seven Tianshu''s struck at the same time, causing his scalp to go numb.


    "Hmph."


    Suddenly, Xiao Hui let out a cold snort. It was as if a thunderbolt had struck in a clear sky. The seven of them were startled and immediately noticed the terrifying figure that they couldn''t ignore. Immediately, they retracted more than half of their deterrence.


    "Ren Jie? Heh, an ordinary man is innocent. The possession of a treasure is a crime, so you can only blame him for having too much luck today. "


    When Tianshou detected Lin Xing''s cultivation, he immediately laughed in disdain. There was no need to fight for it anymore. Everyone knew that a talent like him did not have the qualifications to obtain items from the Green God''s land.


    Although it wasn''t intentional, he still couldn''t take it away. He had to hand it over.


    Lin Qi took a deep breath and rolled his eyes. He said, "This item is indeed extraordinary. But even if I hand it over, how are you seven going to split it?"


    He paused for a moment before continuing in a low voice, "I have a good idea. Why don''t you guys come and fight a bit? I''ll give the treasure to whoever wins to the end."


    As these words came out, the disdain and contempt on the seven people''s faces intensified. They looked at Lin Xing as if he were a three year old child. Did he really think that they were easy to fool?


    "It''s a pity, your provocation is completely useless to us. I advise you to quickly hand over the treasure, as for how the seven of us are going to split it, there''s no need for you to worry about it." A handsome young man opened his mouth. In his hand was a fan which he used to paint an unparalleled beauty. From time to time, he would gently wave it.


    "Seven people? "What, you guys didn''t count me in?" Xiao Ting spoke coldly, his sharp eyes staring at the young man who spoke.


    The expression on the young man''s face changed slightly as he felt uncomfortable under Xiao Lin''s gaze. He didn''t say anything but continued to fan himself in a composed manner.


    In fact, they all knew that if Xiao Xun interfered and fought one-on-one, no one would be a match for him.


    However, no one wanted to let go of this treasure, and no one wanted to break the rules of the Land of the Green God. A talented person was not qualified to obtain anything here.


    "If this item isn''t of much use to you, then hand it over." Xiao Lin understood this point. It was almost impossible for a talented individual to take the treasure away, and it was possible that he would anger the crowd. Thus, he slowed down his tone and tried to persuade Lin Xing.


    "Very important." Lin Qi replied in a deep voice. His voice was extremely hoarse and his attitude was decisive. It was a very straightforward sentence. If they wanted him to hand it over, there was no way they could.


    This was a golden pearl, identical to the color of the golden mace. There were ancient runes engraved on it, and the moment it rushed into his mind, it would stick tightly to the golden mace, pouring a mysterious energy into it.


    After receiving the mysterious energy, Lin Xing was delighted to discover that his golden mace was gradually regaining its spiritual nature.


    The importance of these trump cards went without saying, so he would never hand them over.

 C200

    The golden mace was like Lin Xing''s closest relative. Not only was it mysterious and extremely useful, it was also something he had feelings for. Of course, he wanted to wake it up as soon as possible, and he would have another trump card.


    If not for his trump card, which saved his master in the face of danger, he probably would have died in the hands of the Great Elder of the Deities Templar.


    Right now, the golden pearl had instilled a mysterious energy within it, allowing it to gradually regain its spirituality. Although it was still very rare, it still caused Lin Qi to be wild with joy.


    There was no door for him to hand it over.


    At the same time, he guessed that 80% of the beads were old acquaintances of the golden mace. It was very likely that the mace belonged to Hierarch Shitian himself, so when he sensed it, he suddenly dropped it and charged into Lin Qi''s mind.


    After hearing Lin Qi''s resolute reply, Xiao Lin''s expression changed slightly. He already had a rough idea of what was going on in his mind.


    In the next moment, a majestic God Power began to spread out from his body, creating an endless wave of Qi, and immediately, an alarming wave of violent wind swept through the surroundings. His figure became even more imposing, like a God descending to the world, with every movement of his or her hands, it was extremely shocking.


    With his formidable strength, he told the seven Tianshou Clan members that no one would be able to snatch it from him today.


    The expressions of the seven people couldn''t help but change when they felt the astonishing power that he was emitting. Xiao Feng was so strong that he had completely shocked them.


    However, did Xiao Lin really dare to declare war on all seven of them at the same time?


    You can protect him for the time being, but you will not be able to protect him for the rest of his life. If you make him hand over the treasure now, we will definitely not do anything to him.


    A young man stepped forward. He was tall and imposing, and his body emitted a frightening aura. In front of Xiao Lin, he didn''t show much fear and brazenly threatened him instead.


    At the same time, he also released a killing intent that locked onto Lin Qi.


    Xiao Lin''s expression did not change, but his heart was moved. What he said was not without reason. He turned his head to look at Lin Qi and asked, "Have you forgotten your promise?"


    "Trust me." These three short words exhausted all of Lin Qi''s energy.


    "Very good." He looked coldly at the young man and said, "Mu Yuantian, I know that you are on good terms with Chu Jin and have always wanted Lin Qi''s life, but your words are still shallow, proving that you are a weakling that only knows how to use tricks behind your back. If you have the guts, why not fight with me, if you win, you can lose today, but for today''s treasure, you can forget about it."


    Xiao Lin was extremely famous within the Heavenly Cauldron. Even though he and Mu Yuan Tian were both Heavenly Hunters, the gap between them was not small. How could they win against each other?


    Of course, Mu Yuantian was also clear on this point. Compared to Xiao Lin, he knew that he was weaker and that it was impossible for him to defeat him.


    Hearing Xiao Lin mention the young man''s name, Lin Xing immediately understood. He had heard of this name before. This person was a tycoon of the Black Tortoise World Alliance. He had a deep friendship with Chu Jin.


    The hatred between Lin Xing and Chu Jin was irreconcilable. Even Mu Yuantian wanted his life, not to mention the five thousand top quality spirit crystals as a reward.


    His eyes were as sharp as knives as he said: "Xiao Xi, you don''t have to provoke me, I won''t fight with you. But speaking of this, I have a good suggestion, to let Lin Xing take three of my moves, as long as he still has a breath left, I will lose. If he dies, I will not be responsible, and will have to hand over that treasure."


    He then asked Lin Qi for his opinion. The truth was that Lin Xing was also very strange, he could not understand it at all. He didn''t think that it was realistic for Mu Yuantian to want his life in three moves.


    Lin Qi did not hesitate and nodded his head in agreement. His face revealed an expression of determination as he sneered: "But will your proposal represent the six of them? If that''s not possible, then what''s the point of me receiving these three moves of yours? "


    Mu Yuan Tian let out a cold snort from his nostrils before he began to ask for the opinion of the six Tianshou clansmen. The six of them pondered for a moment before agreeing with his actions.


    It was impossible for him to receive three moves from the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. The gap between the realms was very hard to make up for by means, and there was a huge gap between the Heaven Smiting Realm and the Heaven Opening Realm. Many of the older generation were stuck at the Heaven Smiting Realm, and they had to put in a lot of effort in order to not be able to break through.


    "However, this is a wager made with my life, yet you are unable to take out even a single item. Aren''t you being too insatiable? As a Tianshou, where did your face go?" In front of Mu Yuantian, Lin Xing was not only calm, but he was also sarcastic.


    Mu Yuan Tian''s heart was filled with rage. He was just as brazen and arrogant as the rumors said he would be. There would be a time for him to despair later.


    He said, "I''ll use 2,000 top quality spirit crystals as my wager and won''t increase any further. Your life is actually only worth this amount of money. Chu Jin''s reward is 5000, that''s because he hates you."


    "Aren''t you afraid of losing?" Lin Xing played a psychological battle with him.


    "Bullshit." You can only be eloquent now. "


    Even before he finished speaking, Mu Yuantian had already released the power unique to the speed of light, and viciously smashed towards Lin Xing.

 C201

    The undulations of the Celestial Movement Stage were released around Mu Yuantian''s body. At the same time, a large amount of the nether sea was summoned. His body suddenly shot out and erupted with an incomparable amount of energy.


    It was completely not something that could be blocked by a person at the sky level. With just one attack, he could kill at least three elites.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Qi naturally didn''t dare to slack off. He immediately took out two Immortal Swords from his soul hole and released a sharp sound as he slashed out.


    Boom ¡­


    When Mu Yuan Tian''s attack came, Lin Xing instantly pressed both his swords together and then slashed a third time to meet Mu Yuan Tian''s attack head on.


    Lin Qi was not an expert in speed, and especially in the face of the Celestial Movement Stage, it was even more impossible to dodge. Thus, he could only choose to counterattack in order to counteract the attack.


    As soon as his third sword move appeared, it caused the airflow to reverse and its power increased explosively in a straight line. Such a strong contrast also stunned Mu Yuantian and the group of Tianshou onlookers.


    However, even if his third sword strike dealt a ton of damage, it was still nothing compared to Mu Yuantian''s attack.


    As soon as the two met, there was a violent explosion, followed by layers of air currents that swept in all directions, causing a large amount of sparks to burst forth.


    Lin Xing''s body was wounded, and he was sent flying two hundred meters away from the impact. Only then was he able to stabilize his body with great difficulty.


    Fortunately, the injury wasn''t too serious, and it was just a slight pain that wasn''t too bad. But at this moment, he also understood the difference between the Heaven and Earth.


    He raised his head to look at Mu Yuantian who was in the dark. He stood there unscathed with a murderous light in his eyes. Then, his body shot out and he launched a second round of attack.


    A black translucent finger that emitted starlight appeared on top of his head. It was very small, about the same size as an ordinary person''s forefinger, but its explosive power was enough to cause anyone''s expression to change.


    Although Lin Qi was prepared for this, he panicked when he saw the finger. He quickly activated the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern.


    Puff ¡­ Puff ¡­


    Four black lanterns lit up at the same time. They were filled with a bone-chilling, ice-cold flame. Then, a bright white light shone from them. The last four black lanterns were hung in front of him, five meters away, creating a protective screen.


    There was no lack of disciples from the Celestial Sect of Wonders present. Seeing Lin Xing''s four black lamps, Tian Shou''s eyes simultaneously narrowed as a look of surprise flashed past them.


    "Celestial Art!" "Humph, Immortal magic is the underworld''s natural enemy, but the difference in our realms is enormous. Do you really think you can rely on these four black lamps to block my Finger of Heaven?"


    Mu Yuantian''s disdainful laughter rang out from behind the black light finger. Before the black light finger could reach Lin Qi''s ears, it had already slammed into the four black lights.


    Puchi ¡­


    The four black lanterns shattered at the same time, the white light suddenly fading away and then dissipating, unable to resist at all.


    Amidst his shock, Lin Qi hurriedly lifted up another black light. Only then was he able to successfully block off the incoming black finger.


    However, in the next moment, his expression changed drastically. Although the black finger had disappeared, Mu Yuantian''s third round of attack had already arrived in front of Lin Qi, his figure that was filled with explosive power.


    At this moment, everyone was shocked. Xiao Lin''s heart was in his throat as he secretly used his divine power to prepare for the critical moment. He didn''t care about the rules, he was going to save Lin Xing.


    Boom ¡­


    However, at this moment, an aura akin to a prehistoric beast was being emitted. Accompanied by dragon roars and tiger roars, a might that blotted the skies swept out, causing the forest to tremble.


    Lemon!


    Everyone''s expression changed at this moment, and Xiao Xun''s pupils constricted. He did not expect Lin Qi to have such a trick up his sleeve. He had really hidden it well.


    Even more so, Mu Yuantian had not expected that in just two months of his life, the people Feng Li knew were extremely rare. He would never have thought that Lin Xing was one of them.


    Tempest was a power even more tyrannical than the power of the underworld, especially since it had just been born. It was extremely blessed by the heavens, fusing with the will of the heavens.


    In the next moment, both of them were blown away at the same time.


    Mu Yuantian was still unharmed, but his face was so dark that black water seemed to drip out. In the end, he growled three times, filled with unwillingness.


    On the surface, Lin Qi seemed unaffected. It was just that blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He had suffered internal injuries, but it was clearly not too serious.


    After taking three moves, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.


    "Brat, this time we''ll consider it you going far. However, don''t think that you can stay alive for too long." Mu Yuantian shouted with anger. His killing intent was so strong that it was overflowing.


    Lin Qi could not be bothered with him and coldly said, "Cut the crap. Hand over the two thousand top grade spirit crystals and get lost."


    "You ¡­"


    As a Heavenly Hunter Stage freak, Mu Yuantian had never been humiliated like this by someone before. Immediately, the anger he had just suppressed erupted, and just as he was about to attack, he saw a monarch like figure standing on the right side of Lin Xing.


    In the next moment, he retracted his fist. Not only was there anger on his face, there was also a lot of fear.


    With a wave of his large sleeve, two thousand top grade spirit crystals flew out from the soul hole and landed on the ground.


    Then, he rushed into the sky without looking back.


    There was no need to stay any longer. If he stayed, he could only bear the anger. With Xiao Lin present, he did not dare to make a move.


    A few people looked at his departing figure and the corner of their mouths twitched a little. Two thousand top grade spirit crystals was not a small amount. Even for Tianshu, it was a large amount of blood.

 C202

    Mu Yuantian''s previous suggestion had been approved by the six Tianshou elders. Now that Mu Yuantian had failed to kill Lin Xing in three moves, it was clear that they had lost. Naturally, they could not say anything.


    Lin Qi kept the two thousand top grade spirit crystals on the ground and then left with Xiao Ting. No one dared to stop him.


    On the way back, Xiao Lin did not reveal even the slightest hint of happiness at Lin Qi defeating Mu Yuantian. Instead, he remained silent with a worried look on his face.


    The situation was worse than he had expected. Mu Yuantian had already said that once he left, he would attack Lin Xing or even the World Alliance. If the World Alliance didn''t have him, would they be able to withstand his attack?


    He had already agreed to what he had promised, and since he had already promised, he would not go back on his words. He had just agreed to what he had said to Su Qian, and he would definitely borrow some strength to do so.


    The two of them spoke the entire way back to the main city, but the atmosphere was still stiff.


    Afterwards, Lin Qi bid farewell to Xiao Lin and returned to the main hall. He then closed the door and sat down cross-legged in a dark corner. He took out a bunch of Spirit Crystals from his spirit cave and started cultivating.


    Only after fighting with Mu Yuantian this time did he understand the enormous gap between the Heaven''s Parry Realm and the Heaven''s Parry Realm. Right now, increasing his strength was his first priority, otherwise he would not be able to deal with the upcoming danger and might even bring down the entire World Alliance.


    Time passed. Seven days and seven nights went by in the blink of an eye.


    During these seven days, he did not take a step out of the hall and was completely immersed in his cultivation. Occasionally, Su Qian would report something and interrupt him. After he left, he would continue to absorb Spirit Crystals.


    Before Kun Yun and Qu Ying left, they ran to the Champion City to bid their farewells to him. He took some time out to chat with the two ladies for a full four hours, then ordered Su Qian to arrange a night of rest in the main city for them. After that, he was sent out of the Sky Cauldron on the second day, and left.


    Lin Qi''s mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts. He was filled with longing for the future, but also with a sense of impending crisis.


    He had made an agreement with the two women that if they could leave the Heaven Furnace sect alive and meet up at the Reincarnation Sect two years later, he would arrive on time.


    The two women nodded with bitterness and melancholy. Finally, they reluctantly left, disappearing from Lin Xing''s line of sight.


    When she left, all the big shots of the Heavenly Cauldron had been present to help her carry out her plans. First of all, she had an extraordinary background and her connections were very wide, and she had a good relationship with many of the big shots of the Heavenly Cauldron. The scene was extremely spectacular, and it had caused many to feel envious.


    However, Meng Luo Yu never revealed a smile because the Dian Yue Palace was currently in a state of disarray and had no blood to pour. Since she had left, the Dian Yue Palace could only be temporarily disbanded, and all the elites in the hall had been allocated to the other branches of Zhan Tian.


    Meng Luo Yu was a woman of great perseverance and responsibility, for which no one denied. Lin Xing also admired her. If it were not for the three month deadline, it was not impossible for her to stay in the Heavenly Cauldron for some time longer.


    It was very hard for ordinary people to understand her feelings towards the palace.


    With this thought in mind, he couldn''t help but look up at the sky and let out a long sigh.


    Only when you ascend to a higher status would you understand how important those who have followed you to war are. Every single World Alliance member is a faith, and every single one of them possesses the pride of the World Alliance.


    Xiao Lin would leave the Heaven Cauldron tomorrow. Furthermore, he had already announced the candidates for the next alliance head position yesterday.


    Without a doubt, it was Lin Xing.


    This was because Lin Xing had been cultivating in seclusion for the past two days. Su Qian had only told him about this matter.


    As for why Lin Qi was chosen to be the chief of the alliance, it was understandable. After Xiao Jing left, the World Alliance only had one Heavenly Hunting monster left, however, she would leave in less than five days, so there was no better candidate than Lin Xing.


    Now that he had ascended to the position of chief, leading more than a thousand Qi warriors and more than thirty humans, he greatly satisfied his vanity. However, he didn''t feel the slightest bit of happiness in his heart, and instead felt that his shoulders were incomparably heavy as he shouldered an enormous responsibility.


    On this day, Seven Rolling Knives came to his great hall, respectfully greeted him, and then took out a large amount of information from his soul cave.


    Lin Qi smiled wryly as he replied. Then, he took the stack of information and flipped through it. In a short period of time, he had already memorized all the information recorded in the information.


    This was the news from the Black Tortoise World Alliance that he had instructed the Seven Blades to scout.


    "Mu Yuantian is the Black Tortoise World Alliance''s deputy chief. He has four halls under his command and two of them have spirit mines in them. Am I right?" Lin Qi closed his eyes and merged the information in his mind. When he opened his eyes again, he slowly asked the Seven Rolling Knives.


    Seven Blade replied, "That''s right. Those two spirit mines can produce several thousand top quality spirit crystals per day. As a result, Mu Yuantian has become a true rich man."


    "Tomorrow, the leader will leave. Chu Jin has already entered the Black Tortoise World Alliance. At that time, he will definitely bring Mu Yuantian to settle the score with me. This is my fault. I have brought disaster to our World Alliance." Lin Xing sighed.


    "Alliance head, this matter cannot be blamed on you. That Chu Gao is arrogant, and I have long since disliked him. As long as he dares to come, I will make him pay the price." Seven Rolling Knives said.

 C203

    Lin Qi stood up from the ground. He was like a sword, standing straight and tall. He gave off an indescribably sharp aura. Such a huge contrast caused Seven Rolling Knives to be slightly stunned.


    "Scram, there will definitely be a great battle tomorrow." Lin Xing''s breathing quickened, and his breathing quickened.


    "Alliance Head, the Seven Knives are willing to help you." Seven Rolling Knives'' tone was sonorous.


    He said: "Tomorrow, Mu Yuan will definitely bring a large group of his subordinates from the four halls to our main city to suppress them, and then have me surrender and surrender. If I bring all of you here, there might not be any use for you, I want you to go and seize those two Spirit Mines tomorrow, destroy them, and take back all the Spirit Crystals that you have stored up, to disrupt their rear camp."


    "Tomorrow?" Seven Rolling Blade was stunned.


    Lin Xing nodded his head seriously and said, "That''s right. We will set out tomorrow morning. This matter must be done secretly, and no one is allowed to leak out any information." Are you afraid? "


    "I''m not afraid, I''m not even afraid of Earth Flame. Since when have I ever been afraid of this bunch of birds?" Seven rolling blades fiercely patted his chest, his eyes revealed a vicious light, and his deterrent power was astonishing.


    "Alright." Lin Qi patted him on the shoulder, and his gaze turned cold. His voice was horrifying, "Since we''ve reached this point, you don''t have to be merciful tomorrow. As long as you''re a member of the Black Tortoise World Alliance, we will kill you."


    "Yes."


    The Seven Rolling Knives'' expressions changed. The chief was planning to start a war with the Black Tortoise World Alliance. This had not happened in the Heavenly Cauldron for decades. Thinking of this, he was excited and had no intention of being afraid.


    After giving out all these instructions, the Seven Rolling Knives left. Lin Xing continued to sit cross-legged on the ground. He closed his eyes and began to study the golden bead that was tightly attached to the golden mace.


    After studying it for the entire night, he was unable to find anything. However, he was certain that the Golden Bead was also a relic left behind by the Great Celestial Lord, and was connected to the golden mace. Otherwise, it wouldn''t have rushed into his mind.


    That golden pearl was imbuing the mace with mysterious energy, and because of this, the mace was gradually regaining its consciousness, but very slowly. At this rate, it wouldn''t be able to wake up until three months later.


    Even so, Lin Xing was already very happy. At least it was better than not knowing any hope at all.


    Early in the morning the next day, the entire Sky Cauldron was in a state of turmoil, the undercurrents surging. The level of liveliness was actually not the slightest bit inferior to the great beast tide not long ago.


    From all directions, people madly rushed over to the main city''s location.


    Because today was the day that the supreme expert of the Heavenly Cauldron, Xiao Ri, left. No matter how their friendship was, they were all here to watch this prodigy who once roared at the Heavenly Cauldron leave.


    There was no need to mention how spectacular the scene was. There were figures everywhere, and every major world alliance had at least two tycoons that came to send them off. It was even more lively than when they had entered the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Within the World Alliance, many people cried as they stared at the towering figure that resembled an emperor. Among them, the one who cried the most was none other than Su Qian.


    Her eyes were filled with tears as they flowed down her face. Her miserable state was enough to move anyone.


    Lin Qi had already arrived at the main city''s tower. He looked up at Xiao Jian who was floating in the air and sighed with emotion. The sky was big and the land was big. Would they be able to see each other again?


    Of course, regardless of whether or not they would meet again in the future, Lin Xing dared not forget the promise he made.


    At this moment, many of the Hunters flew into the sky to bid farewell to Xiao Lin. They seemed to be on good terms with each other.


    Xiao Li was destined to become a Deity, especially for those who were close to him. Naturally, he would not let go of this opportunity to curry favor with them.


    After a moment of reminiscence, a rainbow colored halo appeared and enveloped his entire body. Xiao Lin knew that he was about to leave.


    Before he left, he looked at the Champion City deeply and affectionately for a long time. Finally, his gaze locked onto Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi saw the undisguised pleading in his eyes.


    Lin Xing slightly narrowed his eyes, slowly nodding at him with an incredibly solemn expression.


    Xiao Lin smiled faintly. With a flash of rainbow colored light, he disappeared into thin air and was sent out of the Heaven Cauldron.


    The people all over the mountain watched him leave and couldn''t help but be in a daze. An expert who once commanded the Heavenly Cauldron had simply left without leaving anything behind. After a few months, no one would remember his name.


    Not long after, many onlookers left, and a large number of figures disappeared.


    At this moment, Lin Xing furrowed his brows. Chu Jin and Mu Yuantian hated him to the bones, but now they were really calm. Xiao Lin had been walking for a long time, but he still hadn''t made a move.


    Yan Niang seemed to have seen through his doubts and came over to answer for him, "They are probably afraid that Alliance Head Xiao Lin will cheat."


    "Cheating?" Lin Qi was stunned for a moment.


    It''s not like you have never had situations like this before, but it''s also because you have provoked your enemies and obtained the protection of powerful warriors. When your enemies have left, they would appear and seek revenge, but once, there was a strong warrior who pretended to be sent out of the Heavenly Cauldron, and those enemies could not help but appear, and were preparing to kill in all four directions. "Yes."


    "There is such a thing." Lin Xing was stunned.


    "Haha, looks like Xiao Lin has really left. Lin Xing, hand over your life. No one will be able to save you today."


    Suddenly, a wild voice came from the distance, bringing with it a monstrous might that pressed down on the entire capital city.


    At this time, more than half of the spectators had yet to leave. The people who were nearby also stopped and began to watch the show.

 C204

    Outside the city, in the dense forest between the mountains, a large group of figures emerged from the sea of people, shooting towards the main city.


    Someone gave a simple count and discovered that this group of people had a total of more than three hundred digits. There were also quite a few outstanding individuals. Their leader was a two Heaven Class monster.


    "Chu Jin, Mu Yuantian!"


    Lin Qi gazed at the two young men standing in front of everyone, and spat out these two names from his mouth.


    Mu Yuan Tian was still normal, but the moment Chu Jin''s gaze made contact with Lin Qi, her expression slightly twisted. Her entire face was as white as paper and her eyes as red as blood. The killing intent that exploded out was simply earth-shattering.


    "Lin Xing!" The two words that came out from Chu Jin''s teeth were said with tears in his eyes. His hatred for Lin Xing had already seeped into his soul.


    He wished that he could grind his bones and scatter his ashes, skin and tendons, and make him suffer a fate worse than death to vent the hatred in his heart.


    Everyone present was very clear about these two people''s past. Even the newbies who just entered the Heavenly Cauldron had heard of them from the senior Qi Shi. They felt Chu Jin''s monstrous hatred, but the so-called surprise didn''t appear on her face.


    They were very careful as they checked the aura of the teleportation formation seven or eight times to confirm that Xiao Lin had teleported out of the Heaven Cauldron. Only then did they dare to show their faces.


    Because of Xiao Ri''s power, even Chu Jin admitted that she was not as strong as her.


    Chu Jin had said that she would make Lin Xing regret coming to this world, killing off all the people closest to him. After leaving the Heavenly Cauldron, he still had to go to the sect that he cultivated in order to root out everything within a ten thousand mile radius.


    Only in this way would he be able to obtain a trace of gratification in his heart.


    Lin Xing turned a deaf ear to his hatred. His expression was cold as he wiped off his sweat, his gaze sweeping over the people around him.


    Among these people, he discovered many familiar faces. For instance, Gu Lin, Xu Dan, and a group of other elders from the Demonic Spirit Hall.


    On the Everlasting City, although the upper echelons had expected this to happen, their faces still turned purple. They looked down at Chu Jin and her group with flames in their eyes.


    "Chu Jin, Mu Yuantian, you two scoundrels, when the leader of your alliance is here, do you dare to come to my capital and behave so atrociously? "Now that he has left, you guys can''t wait any longer. I might as well tell you the truth, even if chief Xiao Xi is no longer around, it''s not easy to dominate the World Alliance. If you dare to provoke him, you will have to pay the price."


    Su Qian wiped away his tears and regained his stubborn expression. His voice was incomparably hoarse as he pointed at the people below and angrily cursed.


    Her words resounded in everyone''s ears, echoing in the sky for a long time. Most of the spectators were emotionally moved, as the World Alliance ranked in the top three of the Twelve World Alliance. Their overall strength could not be underestimated.


    When the people of the World Alliance heard these words, they felt as if they had been injected with chicken blood and were fully revived. Their expressions were full of excitement and their faces were filled with the pride unique to the World Alliance.


    "Cut the crap. So what if you guys have the advantage in numbers?" Once Xiao Han leaves, you will only have one Heavenly Mentor left. Humph, do you dare to start a war with me? "I advise you all to hand over Lin Qi immediately. I can let this matter slip by. Otherwise, blood will flow like a river today." Mu Yuantian spoke with a domineering tone, not afraid at all.


    The reason why he was able to bring his troops here was because of the tacit approval of the Black Tortoise Association''s leader. He wanted to take this opportunity to suppress the World Alliance''s arrogance, let alone Chu Jin and him, the Black Tortoise World Alliance still had two enemies.


    "Lin Qi is now my World Alliance Master. If you want to touch him, you have to first ask me if I agree."


    At this moment, the tall and slender body of the Blizzard Lady, which could be said to be perfect, spoke.


    Mu Yuantian chuckled, and then went close to Chu Jin and said in a low voice, "It seems like this little girl is going to fight with us. Brother Chu, go stop him, give Lin Xing to me, I will capture him alive, and then you can torture him to your heart''s content. If they were to rush up together, the three hundred people behind me will also let them know that none of them are easy to deal with. "


    "Alright."


    From start to finish, Chu Jin hadn''t said a single word. Only now did she hear Mu Yuantian''s words.


    Raising his head, his eyes that were filled with a dense killing intent stared at Lin Qi. It was sharp and sharp, with an inexhaustible killing intent.


    Suddenly, an afterimage of him appeared where he stood. When everyone came back to their senses, they saw that his body had already flown up into the air, and then he dove down towards where she was.


    When Yan Niang saw this, her body trembled and flew into the sky like a meteor. In the blink of an eye, she collided with Chu Jin.


    The battle between the two at the Heaven''s Perception Realm immediately attracted the attention of everyone. Their bodies moved like lightning, and the moment they came into contact, the injuries they suffered exploded into pieces.


    At the same time, an even more powerful figure charged towards the main city. It was Mu Yuantian.


    Lin Xing''s eyes became cold as he blocked the other elites that were preparing to fight. Then he took out two celestial swords and jumped into the air.

 C205

    On top of the city gate tower, Mu Yuantian charged alone. Su Qian, Qin Xiao, and a few other hall masters wanted to fight him, but they were stopped by Lin Xing. He flew out and similarly charged at Mu Yuantian.


    Puff, puff!


    The two immortal swords shot out simultaneously from his soul hole. Lin Xing held one in each hand and immediately executed the third sword technique. The first sword attack dispersed Mu Yuantian''s vicious aura.


    Next were the second and third swords. They came out in a cycle and fought against Mu Yuantian, and in a short period of time, they weren''t at a disadvantage at all.


    Under the huge city, the winds and clouds were violently surging, the sword qi was surging, and everyone was emotionally moved.


    In these seven days, Lin Qi did not eat his fill of rice. His cultivation had increased tremendously, which was clearly different from seven days ago. He was also shocked to the point of being incredulous.


    The spectators in the mountains and plains all looked at the young man, their faces filled with shock. To not lose out in a battle between a Heaven Chasing Battle expert and a Heaven''s Tribulation Realm expert, it was truly unimaginable.


    If Mu Yuan Tian was not a Heavenly Cauldron monster, but an ordinary cultivator, it was normal for Lin Xing to be able to jump levels and fight. After all, Heavenly Cauldron monsters were all considered heaven-defying beings.


    However, Mu Yuantian was also a monster with a genuine Heavenly Cauldron. His battle prowess was also peerless in this world, yet Lin Xing was actually able to compete with him in terms of strength.


    None of the spectators didn''t want to say it out loud. The battle between these two people was actually even more exciting than the battle between Oblivion and Chu Jin. This could be seen from the gazes of the crowd.


    "Hmph, petty tricks." Your sword skill is only so-so. "


    After a short period of shock, Mu Yuan Tian''s expression recovered to a look of contempt. At this moment, he finally understood the technique of the third charge.


    The power of the first and second sword strikes were ordinary, but the third sword strikes were extremely powerful, it was too terrifying, he did not even have the courage to take them head on, and as long as he managed to dodge the third sword strike and take care of Lin Xing, wouldn''t that be as easy as flipping his palm?


    Mu Yuantian began to change his attacking style. When the third slash came, he purposely showed weakness so that he could use up Lin Xin first.


    Puff ¡­


    The sword in the middle of the cycle was unleashed once more, returning to the first sword strike. Lin Xing''s eyes turned cold, he knew that Mu Yuantian would not dodge, so he attacked with a blade repair skill at a lightning fast speed.


    "Replenishing blade and sword skill."


    At the same time, within the crowd of spectators, there was a girl who had an astonished expression. She was shocked and had an expression of disbelief. She actually recognized this sword skill.


    She was around sixteen to seventeen years old. She had a beautiful face, a porcelain doll face, and two large sapphire eyes. She wore a short skirt, and her feet were bare. A pair of perfect, flawless golden lotuses.


    Next to him, Mu Rui stood there respectfully. As for the young woman, her identity had already been revealed. She was the leader of the Battling Heavens Alliance, Lu Qi.


    The camera went back to Lin Xing and Mu Yuantian. The latter knew that the first sword stroke was only a weak attack, so he only used a small amount of nether energy to resist. However, the sword move changed its trajectory and unexpectedly changed its angle to stab at him, causing him to be greatly shocked.


    Because he did not expect it, a sword cut appeared on his neck. Luckily, he reacted fast, or his head would have moved.


    He was furious, but what shocked him even more was that there were changes to his wound. Black gas that could be seen with the naked eye was being emitted and spreading throughout his body, killing him.


    Boom ¡­


    Just a moment ago, Lin Xing had revealed a fatal flaw. He was sent flying by the divine spell he used. As a result, his body was sent flying backwards, spitting out large amounts of blood as he suffered heavy injuries.


    Just as he was about to charge forward and deal a fatal blow, because of the black qi, he had no choice but to stop in his tracks and use the power in his body to suppress it. Otherwise, even if he managed to kill Lin Xing, his life would be hanging by a thread and he would not be able to live for long.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Qi landed on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The hall masters of the World Alliance immediately jumped down, protecting him.


    In the next moment, a strong wave of energy emanated from Mu Yuan Tian''s body, enveloping the area where Lin Xing was. It immediately made them feel like they were facing a great enemy. It was as if a mountain was pressing down on their shoulders; it was incredibly heavy and difficult to move forward.


    Domain Power...


    The entire audience was moved!


    The Heaven Opening Realm was a large realm. There were also three small realms. They were the Star Mountain, Domain, and Transcendence!


    Apparently, Mu Yuantian had already half a foot in the domain.


    The moment the domain appeared, the hall masters such as Su Qian and Qin Xiao, who were standing beside Lin Xing, had looks of despair on their faces. In this domain, Mu Yuantian was the ruler.


    "All of you will die." Mu Yuantian roared, and the power of his domain enveloped the entire arena.


    If Mu Yuantian hadn''t cultivated a domain, then the three heroes could fight against him. However, a domain was different. It was not something that could be broken with a large amount of people.


    Of course, this field was still not perfect and was only at the initial stage. Even so, it was still far from something that the Heaven Smiting Stage could handle.


    After Lin Qi swallowed two elixirs, he stood up with his sword raised. The Fear Sword was unexpectedly released to resist the suffocating oppressive force.

 C206

    The Fear Sword Intent did not only contain a strong energy, it could also disrupt Mu Yuantian''s state of mind. He could clearly see the many complex expressions on Mu Yuantian''s face, and deep within his eyes, a sense of deep shock flashed.


    He felt a chill run down his spine. If not for the fact that he had the courage and confidence to suppress Lin Qi, he would have already broken down.


    The domain power continued to press down, and with the hall master unable to withstand the suffocating pressure, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    At the same time, she was both frightened and anxious. She wanted to go and help, but Chu Jing was holding her back, unable to free himself.


    Amongst the spectators, there was no lack of Heaven Shou, who was on good terms with Xiao Yan. However, at this moment, all of them were silent. Was it really worth it to offend the Black Tortoise World Alliance for someone who had already left the Heaven Cauldron?


    The Ji Beast, which Lin Xing had helped before, was now in a dilemma. A strong struggle arose in its heart.


    However, that was just a deal, not a favor. However, when he thought of the Ice Demon Sword in Lin Xing''s hands, Ji Shi''s heart was moved, his mind was filled with a million thoughts, thinking about whether he should make a move or not.


    Suddenly, a young woman walked up and patted Ji Beast''s shoulder, trying to give her a sense of comfort.


    Ji Beast turned his head to look at the young woman, and his expression was filled with surprise and joy. He then asked, "Elder sister Su Nian, why have you come?"


    The woman named Su Nian had a tall and slender figure and a light body. Her words and actions were dignified and refined. Her hair was as black as paint, skin as jade, and eyes as beautiful as jade. There was a gentle smile on her lips, and her face was as gentle as water.


    The two were truly too beautiful, and could be said to be rarely seen in the world. As they stood together, they shone with extraordinary splendor, causing the other girls to lose their luster, attracting many people''s gazes.


    Su Nian stared at Lin Qi with eyes as bright as the stars. She said to Ji Beast, "I heard Xiao Lin left and specially came to see him off. I didn''t expect to see such a good show."


    "That''s right. Xiao Lin has left. The World Alliance has just faced its greatest crisis." Ji Beast sighed.


    Beasts, listen to me. If this person doesn''t die, then his future will be limitless. Whatever you want to do, do it. Su Nian gazed at Lin Qi''s silhouette. Her expression was rather solemn, as if she had felt something new.


    Hearing this, Ji Beast was greatly shocked in his heart. Su Nian was not only a Fairy Doctor, but she also had a pair of famous eyes of wisdom. If anyone could receive her praise, their reputation in the Heavenly Cauldron would rise dramatically.


    After pondering for a long time, the cyan-clad Ji Beast finally made a decision. As if it had made a great decision, its fingers lightly twirled in the air and the sky suddenly changed dramatically.


    Rumble ¡­


    A sea of lightning descended from the sky. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled there as golden snakes danced wildly. They were like thick bolts of lightning as they descended, smashing apart the domain power that Mu Yuantian had displayed.


    Mu Yuantian was shocked. He thought Xiao Lin had come back, but when he came back to his senses, he stared at Ji Beast with a pair of furious eyes.


    As the domain disappeared, Lin Xing and the rest felt a sense of relief. It felt as if a huge mountain had been lifted from their shoulders.


    "All of you, return to the city." Lin Qi suddenly said to Su Qian and co.


    "Alliance Master ¡­" Qin Xiao was taken aback. Before she could finish her sentence, she heard Lin Xing continue, "This is an order."


    At the same time, a female silhouette soared through the air, blocking the path in front of Lin Xing. She was clad in a resplendent azure dress, exuding an aura of unparalleled beauty.


    "Miss Ji, there''s no need for an outsider like you to interfere in the matters of the two alliances, is there?" "If you really want to get to the bottom of this, why don''t you let me play with you."


    To everyone''s surprise, the person who spoke was not Mu Yuantian, but a man whose voice came with the wind. Following that, a figure shrouded in black gas flew into the sky.


    This person was deliberately concealing his identity. Surprisingly, he was also a Heavenly Hunter Stage freak. Everyone present had the feeling that his cultivation was only stronger than Mu Yuantian''s.


    "Beast, you don''t need to worry about it. Leave it to me."


    When Su Nian flew out and saw her peerless beauty, the entire audience was moved. They immediately blocked the black figure that was about to intervene.


    "Alliance Head Su!"


    Everyone was shocked. Even if they were beaten to death, they would never have imagined that Su Nian would intervene.


    On the other hand, her name was even more intimidating than Xiao Lin''s. Not only was she the chief of the alliance, but she was also a doctor and a very influential person in the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "She is ¡­" Lin Qi was at a loss.


    "White Tiger Alliance Head, Sister Su Nian." Ji Beast answered for him.


    "White Tiger World Alliance!" Lin Qi muttered to himself. He hadn''t expected this woman to have such an impressive background.


    The White Tiger World Alliance was one of the top three World Alliance. It was on the same level as the World Alliance. It was unknown how much stronger it was compared to Zhan Tian and the Black Tortoise World Alliance.


    "Miss Ji, thank you for your assistance. But it''s enough, please move aside."


    When those words were spoken, the entire crowd was stunned. Many people were stunned, and even Ji Beast turned around with an astonished expression. It was as if it was suspecting that its ears had misheard.


    "Please get out of the way, he''s right. This is a matter between our two alliances, and there is no need for outsiders to interfere." Lin Xing said.


    "You ¡­ Your conscience was eaten by a dog. "


    Ji Shou was furious, this was really unreasonable. Since Lin Xing had already said it so bluntly, how could she still have the nerve to stay here? With a wave of her hand, she walked to the side.

 C207

    Su Nian looked at Lin Xing, her beautiful eyes wide open, speechless, and helplessly shook her head.


    Haha, since he has already said so, Miss Su, Lady Ji, you two don''t need to interfere anymore, this person doesn''t want to accept your kindness, so why not do it this way? Miss Yan Niang and Brother Chu don''t need to continue fighting, the two of you won''t be able to determine the victor even after a hundred years. The black shadow standing in mid-air seemed to have been amused by Lin Qi as it sneered.


    "Sure." Su Nian could only retreat back to her original spot helplessly.


    Chu Jin and Niang Niang also reached a tacit understanding, and stopped their actions, each retreating to a different side.


    Afterwards, the black shadow left, as if it was afraid that someone would see through its identity. As a result, it did not stop, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon.


    "Everyone, did you see that? This Lin Xing is truly arrogant. If I don''t kill him today, will your hearts be at ease?"


    Mu Yuantian roared again, filled with a savage aura. His eyes were filled with contempt and disdain. Lin Xing was courting death, how could he not fulfill his wish?


    But in the next moment, he froze. He saw Lin Xing take the initiative to rush towards him, carrying his two swords. The corners of his mouth were stained with wet blood, and he had the appearance of a brave and fearless man.


    This scene caused great waves to rise in the hearts of everyone present.


    Lin Qi''s expression was solemn, and there was not a single trace of emotion in his eyes. He no longer used the dual swords, instead using the Nine Revolutions Divine Lantern.


    Puff ¡­


    Five black lamps appeared out of nowhere, shining with a dazzling white light, causing everyone to be stunned for a moment by the blinding white light.


    Five black lanterns were already his limit, but it should be enough to deal with Mu Yuan Tian.


    Even though Mu Yuantian was a rider, he was still a nether. The power of his nether energy had been reduced by half because of the white light.


    He was shocked. He felt that the white light was different from normal celestial spells. It was very likely that it was a celestial spell. Otherwise, with the difference in cultivation level, it wouldn''t have weakened so much.


    He stepped on the air and flew up into the air. A strange scene formed around him, pressing down on the white light released by Lin Qi.


    "Black Dragon Art."


    Mu Yuantian roared, as powerful dragon roars erupted from his mouth. A phenomenon occurred behind him, and in that pitch-black world, a black divine dragon was gradually approaching, as if it heard his summons.


    Lin Xing was not an ordinary person. If he didn''t use a meditation technique, it would be difficult to subdue him.


    He made a prompt decision and immediately executed a meditation technique, in the hope of resolving this battle as quickly as possible.


    That shocking dragon roar immediately caused everyone''s eardrums to go numb. As the target, Lin Xing did not need to say anything more. His entire body was lacerated and bleeding, and in a short while, he had turned into a bloody figure.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Qi endured the pain, shock evident on his face. Seeing the black dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at him, he decisively took out his Ice Demon Sword and clashed with it.


    As the fear of the sword intent spread, the Black Dragon''s expression immediately changed like a living creature. Lin Xing''s sword cut into the dragon head, drawing out a large amount of black Qi.


    Following that, his expression changed. Mu Yuantian, who was hiding behind the black dragon, once again released a deadly attack towards him, sending out a palm strike.


    Puff!


    Lin Qi was unable to dodge in time and was struck by the explosion, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The moment he landed on the ground, he immediately got up and continued to attack with the Ice Demon Sword.


    The entire audience was moved!


    This youngster became braver the more he fought. He did not know fear, and when they fought, he simply did not care for his life.


    Many of the Heavenly Furnace Lords couldn''t help but feel deep admiration for him.


    This time, Lin Xing still used the Ice Demon Sword to attack. At the same time, he also activated five black lights, causing his body to shoot out from the white light.


    Roar!


    Mu Yuantian stood on the head of the black dragon, and both of them let out a loud roar, shaking the entire world. He then flew out to meet Lin Qi.


    Lin Xing combined his two fingers and five black lights attacked the black dragon. His body rose into the air as he swung his sword at Mu Yuantian.


    Rumble ¡­


    At the same time, thunder rumbled in the sky as the golden snakes madly danced. Electric arcs fell from the sky and created deep craters in the ground with crackling sounds.


    Mu Yuantian''s expression suddenly changed. He thought that Ji Beast had made its move again and glared at her in his free time.


    However, his guess was wrong. That lightning sea was caused by Lin Qi. No one, not even Ji Beast and Su Nian, had expected this. They were all stunned.


    Sensing the power of the lightning sea, Mu Yuan knew that he had been fooled. When he came back to his senses, he saw that Lin Xing''s sword attack had already landed.


    At the same time, there was a strange change in Lin Qi''s pupils. They were like two black holes, causing his mind to sink deeply into them. His mind was momentarily blank.


    Just this short moment of blankness was enough to take his life.


    He was horrified. Before his mind went blank, he did not forget to pull his body back. Lin Xing''s sword fell down, and even though it did not split his head apart, it still cut open his stomach, causing his intestines to bleed out.


    Hiss!


    Everyone was overwhelmed with shock, and the sounds of breathing in cold air constantly resounded like an avalanche toppling the ocean.

 C208

    Even more terrifying was that Lin Xing''s sword strike contained a strong death god that instantly strangled half of his life force. One could clearly see that his young face had instantly turned into the face of a middle-aged man, and many of his hair had already turned white.


    The entire audience was moved. Countless pairs of eyes stared straight at Lin Qi. This was too strange, and it also shocked them.


    In fact, what truly shocked Mu Yuantian wasn''t the Death God power, but the pair of mysterious and fleeting pupils that Lin Xing had displayed just now. It was because of those pupils that he had been momentarily stunned, causing him to be struck by the sword.


    At this point, he was so angry that he didn''t want to live. His face was filled with an unwilling expression; he didn''t believe that he would lose to someone as strong as him.


    Let alone him, no one believed this. They were all Heavenly Cauldron freaks, and the difference in their cultivation was enormous. There really was no reason for him to lose!


    Suddenly, a natural phenomenon occurred, but it was not a divine technique that was activated by someone. Lin Qi could see three multi-colored halos of light appear above his head, hanging in the air, exuding a holy halo of light.


    This was the symbol of Tianshou. Although his cultivation base was in Heaven Smiting, he held the title of Tianshou. This kind of event was extremely rare within the Heavenly Cauldron, but it had happened before. Every single one of these people would be considered as the peak existences within the Heavenly Cauldron in the future.


    It could only be said that Lin Xing was too heaven-defying. A youth that had just entered the Heavenly Cauldron only a few months ago had already achieved such a feat. It could be said that he had envious of everyone around him.


    Right at that moment, a figure rushed over from the distance, approaching Mu Yuantian before stopping in his tracks.


    "What''s wrong!" Mu Yuantian tried his best to resist the pain. He frowned as he suddenly felt a strong sense of unease in his heart.


    That person replied in a panic, "Vice Alliance Master, things are not going well. The two spirit mines under your command have all been destroyed, and the twenty thousand top quality spirit crystals in the spirit storage have all been looted."


    Hearing that, Mu Yuantian''s face turned black and a mouthful of blood sprayed into the air. He almost fainted from anger.


    At that moment, everyone turned their gazes towards Lin Xing. If he wasn''t the culprit, then a ghost would appear. It was too sinister.


    The people of the City Lord''s City Lord found it strange. With such a large lineup, why was it that they never saw the Seven-rolled Knife? They didn''t expect that Lin Xing would send Lin Ming to plunder the spirit crystal.


    Pfft!


    Suddenly, something happened. Lin Xing''s body flashed and the Ice Demon Sword''s cold light flashed through the air as it stabbed towards Mu Yuantian. Lin Xing did not plan on letting him go.


    Chu Jin''s expression changed and she immediately went forward to stop him. With a cold smile, she rushed forward and stopped him.


    Mu Yuantian was heavily injured, and blood was dripping from his abdomen. Moreover, there was still the Death God Power that was trying to kill him, so how could he stop Lin Qi?


    However, the elites beside him were no pushovers either. For instance, Xu Dagang and Gu Lin''s group instantly charged towards the five of them, blocking their path as they engaged in a chaotic battle with Lin Xing.


    Mu Yuantian took this opportunity to run. It was impossible to kill Lin Xing today. If they continued fighting, he would have to answer for himself.


    Lin Qi wanted to chase after him, but the five elites held him back. They could only watch as he left with his tail between his legs.


    Puff!


    In a fit of rage, he had completely vented his anger on the five elites surrounding him and chopped down three of them with a single slash. Gu Lin was one of them. Her gaze before her death was filled with regret and malice.


    The other two elites knew that they couldn''t fight back, so they took the opportunity to run away as well. After Lin Xing killed the three of them, their gazes fell upon Xu Que''s retreating figure.


    At the same time, Chu Jin escaped from the entanglement of the Oblivion Realm, rose into the air, and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.


    "Lin Xing, the hatred between us is irreconcilable."


    At the end of the sky, Chu Jin''s furious oath hovered.


    Humph!


    Lin Xing''s eyes swept across the crowd before withdrawing his Ice Demon Sword. He turned around and walked back towards the main city. At the same time, a muffled roar sounded.


    Send an order to the seven scimitars to temporarily prevent their hall from returning, temporarily station themselves at the east side of the Black Tortoise World Alliance. The Blood Hall and the Dragon Seizing Hall immediately head to the south side of the Black Tortoise territory to block the exit.


    When these words were spoken, the entire audience burst into an uproar.


    Lin Xing was determined to fight the Black Tortoise World Alliance to the death. It had been almost ten years since the battle between the two World Alliance and Heavenly Cauldron had happened.


    "What spirit. I''d like to see how you kill the members of our World Alliance."


    In the distant horizon, there were people who answered back. This person''s identity was self-evident, and was most likely the current leader of the Black Tortoise World Alliance.


    Lin Qi sneered. Without even turning his head around, he leapt onto the city wall and headed straight for the main hall where he was staying.


    "Elder Sister Su Nian, this person is too rude. I helped him out out with good intentions, but he still hasn''t said a word of thanks. How can he be so infuriating?" Looking at Lin Qi''s disappearing figure, Ji Beast was enraged. He stomped his feet, no longer having the cold yet ladylike demeanor from before.


    Su Nian stroked her bright hair on her right shoulder, and could not help but shake her head with a bitter smile.

 C209

    The sun and the moon flashed, and time flew by quickly!


    Five days later, in the grand hall of the main city, Lin Xing was sitting on the ground with his Seven Rolling Knives respectfully in front of him, reporting to him on the situation of the battle.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows as he listened quietly. From time to time, he would sigh and sneer.


    Ever since the battle at the main city that day, Lin Xing''s name caused a huge sensation in the Heavenly Cauldron. Not only did he slash the Heavenly Shou with his sword, he even declared war on the Black Tortoise World Alliance with tyrannical words.


    For the past five days, both sides had suffered some damage to each other. But overall, the Black Tortoise World Alliance was at a disadvantage. After all, the World Alliance had the advantage of numbers. Their overall strength could not be underestimated.


    Taking the number of outstanding people for example, since the creation of the World Alliance, there had never been less than thirty. As for the Black Tortoise World Alliance, there were only about ten of them.


    This was also within Lin Qi''s expectations. It was impossible for him to eat the Black Tortoise World Alliance in one bite. What he did was to pressure the Black Tortoise World Alliance and force them to hand over Mu Yuantian.


    As for Chu Jin, she had already left yesterday. At the same time, she had also left the Heavenly Cauldron. That was the reason why Lin Xing''s expression was so colorful.


    Another piece of good news was that within these five days, two people from the World Alliance had successfully advanced to the Heavenly Transformation Stage. One of them was a Seven Rolling Knife, and the other was an extraordinary young man who possessed the legendary Rain Deity Body called Sunset Fish.


    The sudden improvement of the two Heavenly Shou''s abilities finally allowed Lin Xing to relax. It was not a big deal if Niang Yan left, as at least Tianshu could support the rest of the World Alliance besides him.


    After the two of them had become Heaven''s Shou, Lin Xing immediately promoted them both to deputy chief, which could be considered as having fulfilled his wish of seven rolls.


    In front of Lin Qi, he was still as respectful as ever. This person was a heaven-defying character that could severely injure a Heaven Ranked monster, and even if he were to advance to the Heaven Speeding Stage, he would not dare to make the slightest move to surpass him.


    "Chief, can the Black Tortoise World Alliance''s offense be suspended for two days?" Seven Blades asked carefully.


    Lin Xing furrowed his brows and asked, "Why?"


    According to his inquiries, Mu Yuantian was only four days away from leaving the Heavenly Cauldron. He would never let him leave it alive, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.


    It''s the time of the opening of the sea in the future. This place is ranked third among the sixteen forbidden lands of the Heavenly Cauldron, and danger and opportunity coexist within it. Every three months, the sea will open and every one of the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters will have one chance to enter, and as the people below have already told me, no one wants to miss this chance, so let me tell you, Alliance Head, if you agree to this. Seven Rolling Knives said.


    "If that''s the case, then bring all of the brothers outside back. In the future, you and Immersed Fish will lead the way and lead us to rule over everyone in the World Alliance." Lin Qi did not hesitate and immediately agreed. Coming to the Heavenly Cauldron was a matter of cultivating and finding a treasure, he did not wish to forcefully stop it.


    "What is it? Chief, you''re not going? " Seven Scrolls hurriedly came out to persuade her that the land of the Morning Sea was not simple at all. As long as she went there, she would be able to find treasures.


    Lin Qi said, "I''ll go, but before that, I need to go to the minefield. After that, I''ll head straight for the land of the Dawn Sea, so you don''t need to worry about me."


    "Alright then, but if you''re going to the minefield, you should first inform Lu Qi that you''re going to the forbidden area within the territory of the alliance." Fine then, but if you''re going to the minefield, you should first inform Lu Qi that you''re going to the forbidden area within the territory of the alliance. The Seven Rolling Knives reminded him.


    "Alright." Then, he seemed to have thought of something and said with a faint smile, "Since the Mortal Sea Cave opens once every three months, Beast Ji will also go. Last time, when she helped me break the domain energy of the Awakening Realm, I still haven''t had the time to thank her."


    The expression on the seven scimitars'' faces changed. After a long while, they sighed and said, "Chief, Lady Ji, Beast Beast, has already left the Heaven Cauldron since three days ago."


    "What!" Lin Qi muttered to himself, "How could this be?"


    This was something he had never expected. He had never thought that he would not even be able to see the last part of it. Before he could even say his thanks, he had already left.


    He suddenly had a feeling that heaven and earth were separated forever. The odds of meeting again were extremely slim, and it was almost impossible.


    Afterwards, the seven scrolls left. Lin Xing sat on the spot, silent for a long time. His heart was troubled, and he couldn''t help but sigh.


    Only after a very long time had passed did the faces of those old friends who had left the Heaven Furnace Lord''s place disappear from his mind.


    Calming himself down, he pulled at the clothing at his waist with both hands, then stepped out of the hall and walked towards the battlefield.


    "He is ¡­" Lin Xing! Hurry, hurry and report to the Alliance Master, Lin Yue has awoken. "


    As soon as Lin Xing appeared in the main city of the alliance, he immediately attracted everyone''s attention. Everyone knew his name and appearance from the battle that took place in the main city.

 C210

    Lin Qi smiled as he walked into the main hall of the War God City. His speed was much faster than the person who had reported him to the sect, and no one dared to stop him.


    After a while, he stepped into the main hall of the Alliance Head Hall and saw Lu Qi sitting there like a goddess. Her facial features were picturesque, and she had an aura of beauty that could only be seen from afar; she was not to be desecrated. A pair of flawless three-inch golden lotuses was exceptionally eye-catching, making one want to take a second look at them.


    Below, on both sides stood a group of young and beautiful Qi warriors. Lu Qi, on the other hand, stood on both sides of the crowd.


    It must have been a habit he developed since he was young.


    The moment she saw Lin Xing step into the grand hall, Lu Qi was startled. She hadn''t expected that this uninvited guest would actually be Lin Xing.


    "Alliance Head Lin, I wonder what matter would allow you to personally come to my World Alliance. My Heaven Battling Mansion is truly blessed."


    The two of them had once indirectly caused some unpleasantness, but those unpleasantness were all swept away because of Lin Qi''s improved status.


    Then, Lu Qi''s expression froze. She realized that Lin Xing''s aura was several times stronger than it had been five days ago. His improvement could be said to be swift, and she didn''t dare to be negligent.


    In fact, in these five days, Lin Xing had been in closed-door cultivation. He had relied on the advantage of the Ancient God''s body to directly absorb two thousand top grade spirit crystals. His cultivation was bound to increase and he had already stepped into the peak of the sky level.


    Furthermore, he had completely refined all of that spirit energy into Feng Li, so the Feng Li suddenly increased in power. Although he had intentionally restrained the power from the ancient times, his body still emitted an indescribable deterrent force.


    "Chief Lu ¡­"


    Lin Qi clasped his fists. Before he could finish, he caught sight of a girl from the corner of his eyes. He was stunned and quickly shifted his gaze, focusing on a beautiful woman standing by the side.


    "Purple Haze?" Lin Qi was still in a daze, still feeling incredulous.


    However, the woman he was staring at was dressed in purple clothes that fluttered in the wind. Her thin shoulders and waist, her long hair that was like a waterfall hanging down the back of her head, and a pair of eyes that were as clear as water, as if she was inquiring.


    When she heard Lin Qi call out the name Violet Shade, her face was similarly filled with astonishment and even more disbelief.


    "Forest..." It''s really you! " Purple Shadow fell silent, pointing at Lin Xing in a daze.


    Lin Qi shook his head and could not help but laugh out loud. The fact that they met each other and came from the same place made his heart feel even more intimate.


    "Chief Lu, can you let this young lady accompany me for a walk?" Lin Xing turned towards Lu Qi and said.


    "Alliance Head Lin, please do as you wish." Lu Qi also noticed that Lin Xing and Violet Shao were acquainted. She immediately agreed and instructed Violet Shao, "Violet Shao, if Alliance Head Lin has any orders, please do your best to do so."


    "Yes." "Yes," Zi Yin replied, and he and Lin Xing walked out of the great hall.


    The two of them walked along the majestic paths, leisurely strolling. In this unfamiliar Heavenly Cauldron, they both felt a sense of familiarity towards each other.


    "I didn''t expect that you would also trigger the descent of the Heavenly Cauldron. I came here for the next month as if I had left home for ten years. When I saw you here, I truly missed every blade of grass and tree." Lin Qi was filled with endless emotions.


    Zi Yin pursed his lips and said, "Little brother Lin Xing, seeing you is what makes me feel emotional. I have only been at the Heavenly Cauldron for two days, but with regards to your great name, I can almost hear it in my ears. It is really unbelievable." I also thought that it would be someone with the same name as you. To be able to see you in person today, it was really the Lin Xing that I know. Little brother, do you know how famous you are in the Heavenly Cauldron?


    Lin Xing stopped and lowered his head, revealing a rarely seen shy expression. He rubbed his nose and laughed bitterly.


    "It''s just an empty title, it''s not that exaggerated." Lin Xing was shy and humble.


    Purple Shadow broke out in a cold sweat. "If it''s just a false name, then it''s fine. However, the title of being the leader of the alliance isn''t a false title, right?"


    Lin Xing calmed himself down, pursed his lips, changed the subject, and asked, "Ziyin, let''s not talk about this for now. You should tell me about the Heavenly Ascension Sect and Giant Spirit Sect."


    "Mm, alright." "Ever since you entered the Heavenly Cauldron, the Sky Sect sent out their Golden Scale Guards to protect your Lin Family, so everything is safe and sound. As for the Giant Spirit Sect, they have also welcomed the Big Tomb Slaughter back home, and everything has returned to normal. The Yin Master School and the Heavy Sect have also returned, and they have not come out again to cause trouble."


    Sounds normal.


    Lin Qi heaved a sigh of relief.


    The reason the Sky Sect could have such a drastic change in attitude towards the General''s Estate was all because Lin Xing had broken through his shackles and triggered the descent of the Heavenly Cauldron. As for the rest, they would wait for him to return from the Heavenly Cauldron in two months time.


    After that, the two chatted for a long time before they decided to return to the main hall. They couldn''t afford to keep Lu Qi waiting, so they lost their etiquette.


    Finally, Lin Xing said, "Ziyin, follow me back to the World Alliance."


    "Thank you, little brother, for your kindness. Since I''ve been sent to Zhan Tian, it means that I have some sort of affinity with Zhan Tian. Furthermore, Alliance Head Lu has treated me very well. I don''t want to disappoint her." The shade refused.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing did not try to persuade her anymore. Instead, he supported her will.


    After the two of them returned to the great hall, Zi Yin bowed to Lu Qi before walking to the same spot.


    Lin Xing cupped his fists towards Lu Qi and said, "Chief Lu, I''ve come to find you for a matter that I hope you can agree on."


    "Alliance Head Lin, please speak your mind." Lu Qi smiled and said politely.


    "I want to go to the minefield." Lin Xing said bluntly.


    Lu Qi smiled and said, "Alliance Head Lin has come to find me to make peace, how can I refuse to give you face? How about this, I''ll send someone who''s familiar with the terrain of the mineshaft to follow you, and it''ll also be convenient for you to lead the way."


    "Thank you, Chief Lu, for your kind intentions. However, I have been fortunate enough to visit this place once, so I won''t trouble you to send anyone." Lin Xing said.


    "Alright, chief Lin ¡­" Before Lu Qi could finish her sentence, Lin Xing spoke, "Chief Lu, we''ll discuss this later. This lowly one shall take my leave first. Since Ziying is in your World Alliance, I won''t stand idly by the side and watch if anything happens to Zhan Tian."


    The words were spoken very straightforwardly, causing Lu Qi to stare in shock for a moment. Then, she smiled and nodded as she watched Lin Xing leave.


    Lu Qi stared at Violet Shade as she asked in astonishment, "Violet Shade, you and Alliance Master Lin come from the same place?"


    "Exactly." The shade replied.


    "Oh? I really want to know which sect that dragon head was he from? " Lu Qi was very interested.


    Zi Yin forced a smile and said, "Little brother Lin Xing is from the Sky Sect, that''s not a headquarter sect, it''s just an ordinary little sect."


    Lu Qi looked at him blankly, indicating that she had never heard of him.


    "Heaven''s End Great Land. Alliance Head, you should have heard of it, right?" Ziying smiled bitterly.


    "What?! This is impossible! How could such a heaven defying person come from the Savage Land of the Savage Land?" Lu Qi was astonished.


    Zi Yin was speechless. The Heaven''s End Land that was regarded as the holy land of the Heavenly Mystery Sect and the Giant Spirit Sect was actually just a piece of wilderness and barbarian in her eyes. Zi Ying even had the urge to smash his head into a wall.

 C211

    After Lin Dong woke up in the land of thunder, he headed straight for the lightning sea that was hidden in the darkness.


    Thunder and lightning covered the area as the golden snakes danced wildly. Sounds of thunder covered the heavens and the earth as they crashed down. It was as if a terrifying existence was hidden within the darkness.


    On the left, there were two steep mountains faintly discernable in the darkness. The two mountains seemed to be formed from nature itself, and their imposing auras were peerless as they spread out sharp sword auras along with a small amount of fear and willpower.


    Just a single glance was enough to cause one to feel as if they had fallen into an abyss.


    Lin Xing took a step forward and blocked the incoming sword Qi, only stopping when he was about a hundred meters away from the mountain.


    He didn''t come this time to absorb the Heavenly Origin. Instead, it was for these two Sword Mountains that he had come. They contained secrets of the way of the sword that were unknown, so he had come to explore them in the hope that he could gain something.


    He closed his eyes and gradually released the sword intent of fear. He even seemed to have a guide as he slowly approached the two Sword Mountains.


    At the same time, his mind was also wrapped around by the sword intent, which slowly seeped inside.


    In that split-second, his face suddenly turned incomparably pale, and his facial features even slightly contorted, as if he had seen something that caused people to feel incomparable dread.


    After a short period of shock, his face regained its rosy hue, as if he had accepted the existence hidden within the mountain of swords that was mysterious and terrifying.


    Puff! Puff!


    Suddenly, two blurry black shadows appeared from within the two Sword Mountains. They held sharp swords in their hands. Their waists slightly bent and their figures immediately soared into the air, charging towards Lin Xing''s location.


    The two black blurs disappeared into thin air. Their bodies were extremely agile, and their flying speed was enough to scare a group of people to death.


    If one looked carefully, they could see two black figures in black and white rhinoceros armor, fully armed, with only two pairs of sharp and dark green eyes exposed. There was not a single trace of life in them, and an ancient aura was being emitted from their bodies.


    Just as the two black shadows were about to slash down on Lin Qi''s head, he instantly opened his eyes, took out two Immortal swords, and faced them head on.


    "Death Spirit!"


    Lin Xing''s eyes burned with a cold light. He had already guessed the origins of these two black shadows. They were one of the three great evils of the Heavenly Cauldron, the Death Spirits.


    The strength of each shadow was comparable to that of Tianshou. If it were any other ordinary person, they would have been scared away a long time ago. But Lin Xing did not.


    Lin Qi immediately used the third charge divine sword skill, sparring with the two dead spirits.


    All of a sudden, the sword aura surged, dancing in a group. The sword intent of fear swept out in all directions.


    The two undeads excelled in speed, their attacks were fierce and fast, making it hard for anyone to defend against them. Because Lin Xing could not dodge in time, he was cut in many places on his body.


    As for his third wave divine sword skill, it was not even able to touch the clothes of the two dead spirits. As soon as the sword light flashed, the dead spirits seemed to have anticipated it and casually dodged it.


    "What a fast sword." Lin Xing was shocked.


    The sword skills displayed by the two undead had clearly stepped into a higher realm. They were as fast as lightning, fleeting in the blink of an eye, and they were so fast that even TianShou might not be able to dodge them.


    "Immortal Burying Sword Technique." "Haha, if this sword technique can be used in combination with the blade technique, it will be like adding wings to a tiger, greatly increasing my skill in the way of the sword."


    At the same time as they fought, Lin Xing tossed all of the sword skills he knew to the back of his mind and began to practice and practice the movements of the two undead spirits.


    This was Lin Qi''s fortuitous encounter. The two undead souls'' true intent was to pass on to him the sword art called Immortal Burial.


    Therefore, the two undeads only cut his skin previously, not severely injure or even kill him.


    As the two swords slashed through the air, Lin Xing imitated them and learnt the art of creating wind with his sword.


    After fighting for five hours, he still didn''t feel tired at all. Instead, he looked excited and benefited greatly.


    In a short period of time, he had mastered the Immortal Burying Sword Technique from its initial insight to mastery of the sword art.


    Roughly eight hours later, when the two undead saw that Lin Xing had mastered his sword skills, they leaped into the air and returned to their respective Sword Mountains.


    Lin Qi stopped his movements and excitedly kept the two immortal swords back into his soul hole.


    After receiving this sword skill, his expression was one of ecstasy and his mind was extremely full. He finally had a decent sword skill.


    As for the third blade technique and the third blade technique, the latter''s attack was too fatal, and every move he made was guaranteed to die. As for the third blade technique and the third blade technique, the latter''s attack was too fatal, and every move was guaranteed to die.


    As for the third divine sword technique, Ye Feihua had only given him the first three layers. The first three layers were only for the use of power, and did not involve a single flowery move.


    Thinking of this, his mind jolted. When he returned, no matter what the price was, he would get the sword techniques from Ye Feihua.


    Then, Lin Xing steadied his expression and bowed towards the two Sword Mountains with incomparable respect and gratitude. He then turned around and madly ran in the direction of the land of the morning sea.

 C212

    The Morning Sea was one of the 16 forbidden areas of the Heavenly Cauldron. It was a place where danger and opportunity coexisted. It opened once every three months and no one wanted to miss this chance.


    Almost all of the major World Alliance members had set out in droves. Under the leadership of the various heavyweights of the World Alliance, groups and groups of people began to pour in.


    By the time Lin Ming arrived at the sea of dawn, the usual barrier had already disappeared and a large group of people had already entered. He was one of the later ones to arrive.


    He raised his head and looked towards the east only to see a hazy red light. Large clouds of red mist were rising like dragons, looking very lifelike, enveloping the entire land of the morning sea.


    In the depths, one could vaguely see a red sun flickering and gradually rising, as if it were a place where the sun truly existed.


    In a few flashes, he was already in the middle of the red cloud. Even though there was a red fog surrounding the area, most of it hung in the air, so the visibility was very high. From afar, the dewy flowers and plants could be seen clearly.


    He could vaguely see the shadows of people. The deeper he went, the more shadows he saw. From time to time, he would see groups of people fighting over some kind of divine medicine.


    Lin Xing didn''t want to be slow, so he increased his speed and dashed into the depths.


    Along the way, Lin Xing had also seen two divine medicines and had easily harvested them. However, he was coincidentally met by two groups of people. Fortunately, the two groups of people with the highest strength were only outstanding individuals.


    Those two divine medicines were not simple, and were extremely rare in the Divine Ancient Era. Today, only the Heavenly Cauldron had them, and once he entered the Morning Sea and obtained them, he couldn''t help but feel excited. A look of anticipation flashed through his deep eyes.


    At this moment, he arrived in front of a monolith that reached into the clouds. Around the monolith, there were a few scattered figures.


    The stone tablet reached into the clouds. It was majestic and heavy, and the ancient smell was incomparably strong. It seemed to have existed for many years.


    Above the names, there were flashes of blue light. Looking carefully, those blue lights were actually individual names, as if they were carved on top. In front of each name, there was a number, arranged from top to bottom.


    "Alliance Head, you''ve finally come, causing me to wait so long." A crisp female voice sounded.


    Lin Xing looked over and saw that Qin Xiao was also there. He said with a joyful tone but a surprised tone, "Aren''t you supposed to be with Lie Dao and the rest? Why would he appear here alone? "


    "I''m worried that the chief won''t be able to find us, so I''ll have to volunteer to stay here and wait for him to come before I can bring you to them." Qin Xiao smiled.


    "You''re being considerate." Lin Qi pursed his lips, then pouted his lips and nodded in respect.


    After she left, Su Qian left the Heaven Cauldron. He had been cultivating behind closed doors, and Qin Xiao was responsible for managing the World Alliance''s internal affairs. As expected, he did not let Lin Xing down. He was very smart and capable.


    He stared at the stone tablet and asked in surprise, "What is this?"


    "This tablet is called the Li Heavenly Stele, as long as you place your hand on it, you can test a person''s talent in cultivation. Alliance Master, look at the dense list of names on it, they are all left behind by people who have taken the test before, the higher they go, the better their talent is, at most, you can record five hundred names. If the person with the best talent comes to take the test, you will be able to squeeze out the name that is ranked five hundred. "Not only that, the Heavenly Stele updates every five hundred years, and every update will erase all the names of those who have tested in the past. Thus, the names you see now are all left behind by the Heavenly Cauldron Monsters within these five hundred years." Qin Xiao explained carefully.


    Lin Qi was deeply amazed. His eyes began to observe from the bottom, and then he slowly moved on.


    Suddenly, his gaze froze and his expression became exceptionally marvelous, as if he had discovered a new continent.


    "Great Ris."


    In the middle of the stone monument, he found Giant Creed''s name. As he shifted his gaze, he could clearly see the serial number in front of him. It was number 289.


    He was astonished. The Four Symbols of the Great Perfection was extremely powerful. They were born with heaven-defying abilities. He never thought that their aptitude would be so terrifying that it would only rank 289th.


    "Immersed Fish also came for a test just now and was ranked one hundred ninety-second." Qin Xiao said.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi looked towards the serial number and saw Sunset Fish''s name.


    He was ashamed and didn''t know what to say.


    Immersed Fish possessed the Rain Deity Body. No one in the World Alliance could surpass him in terms of cultivation talent. He was always proud of his ability, but he didn''t want to be ranked at rank 192 on the Heavenly Stele.


    "Alliance Head, you always create miracles. Your strength is unfathomable, and your cultivation talent is definitely excellent. Why don''t you test your potential?" Qin Xiao tried to persuade her with a smile.


    Lin Qi pondered for a moment and took a deep breath. His heart was also moved. Just as he was about to walk to the front of the stone monument, he was caught off guard and walked in front of him.


    He wore a crown, and was eight feet tall. He walked with the wind in his steps, exuding an overbearing valiant aura. He was the only Heaven class freak here.


    Beside him was a large crowd of young men and women, and he was as high up as the stars around him.

 C213

    The youth had a devilish smile at the corner of his mouth as he strode toward the stone tablet. He looked extremely confident, and under everyone''s gazes, he placed his hand on the Heavenly Stele.


    Blue light suddenly flowed out from the palm that was covered with light. The youth''s smile did not falter as he withdrew his palm. The blue light was extremely bright. In the center of the light, there was a big line of words.


    Shangguan Xi!


    "Shangguan Xi, Purple Blood Alliance Chief."


    Lin Qi mumbled to himself. When he saw the characters, he already knew the identity of the young man.


    After he had ascended to a higher position, he had paid attention to some of the Heavenly Cauldron''s Heavenly Hunters. As for Shangguan Xi, he was also the famous Purple Blood Alliance leader. He was on the same level as Xiao Lin.


    "Dang ¡­"


    The next scene, the words that were surrounded by the blue light were like living beings as they started to beat intensely. Then, the sound of the bell rang out as the name that was ranked 500th was squeezed out, followed by a large group of blue light that neatly shifted downwards.


    The speed at which they were climbing up had shocked everyone. Moreover, there was no sign of them stopping at all.


    "Our Purple Blood Alliance Head is indeed powerful. He has already squeezed into the two hundred meter radius, yet he has not stopped."


    "That''s right, big brother Shangguan''s talent is not something that some unworthy Alliance Head can compare to."


    The group of people beside Shangguan Xi cried out in alarm. While some of them cheered, they even shot a disdainful glance at Lin Xing from the corner of their eyes.


    Lin Qi turned a blind eye to it, his eyes staring straight at the blue light. His expression remained the same, but his heart was also moved. This person''s cultivation talent and aptitude was much better than Jellyfish and Jellyfish''s.


    At this point, the blue light finally stopped, and Shangguan Xi''s three words froze in one hundred and three columns.


    "Aiya, just a little bit more and I''ll be able to squeeze into the top 100. What a pity."


    "However, this is not bad either. In the Heavenly Cauldron, no one has managed to make it into the top hundred for at least ten years. This shows that our chief has been the most talented cultivator for the past ten years."


    "That''s right, that''s right. How could I forget about that? In the past ten years, countless Heavenly Cauldron Monsters have appeared, but they were all trampled on by the Alliance Master."


    As the protagonist, Shangguan Xi turned a deaf ear to the flattery of the surrounding people. His face showed some unwillingness, and he failed to squeeze into the top 100. Obviously, he hadn''t met his expectations.


    He shifted his gaze upward and roughly examined the names of the people in the top 100. Suddenly, he clenched both his fists harder than steel. After a long while, he slowly loosened his grip and left the front of the stone monument.


    He moved his seat away but did not leave just like that. Instead, he turned his gaze towards Lin Qi with a face full of playfulness.


    With an expressionless face, Lin Xing slowly walked forward until he was in front of the monolith. Then, he raised his hand and stuck his palm onto it.


    As soon as his palm was placed on top, a blue light immediately seeped out from his covered palm. However, the blue light was relatively weaker, clearly not as bright as before when Shangguan Xi had placed his palm on it.


    "Hehe, even the leader of the Alliance can only be this much. I thought that her talent was that heaven-defying."


    "You flatter him too much. Back then, when he fought against Mu Yuantian, I was there watching. If he could defeat Mu Yuantian, then he must have been extremely lucky. Besides, he is not even fit to carry shoes compared to our leader."


    Seeing this, the people in the crowd didn''t give up on this opportunity to fawn over Shangguan Xi either and started to crowd Lin Xing out.


    Qin Xiao clenched her fists and rolled her eyes at the flattering crowd. She was extremely infuriated.


    Lin Xing released his grip, revealing a large amount of blue light. However, he was still far from Shangguan Xi''s level, and the speed at which he was rising was much slower, much slower than Shangguan Xi''s speed.


    Four hundred and eighty-one.


    Four hundred and seventy-two.


    Qin Xiao''s eyes stared fixedly at the two characters, Lin Xing, that were surrounded by blue light. She slowly counted them, her face filled with unwillingness.


    In her heart, Lin Xing had always been able to create miracles. With his Heaven Smiting Sword, he should have a heaven-defying talent. How could he not even reach four hundred?


    But the only thing that made her feel gratified was that although the blue light was rising at a slow speed, it did not stop. Step by step, it pushed the name down.


    After a long time, Lin Xing''s name appeared among the four hundred students, causing Qin Xiao to heave a sigh of relief.


    Shangguan Xi, on the other hand, still wore a playful look on his face, while the group of people beside him still wore expressions of disdain.


    Three hundred.


    Two hundred.


    "Still not stopping?"


    And then, an unknown amount of time passed, and Lin Xing''s name actually squeezed into the 200 list. This was not even the most shocking thing, and the most shocking thing was that there were actually no marks left behind by the name.


    The group of people were shocked, Shangguan Xi''s playful expression was swept away and replaced with solemnity.


    One hundred and four columns.


    Everyone felt their scalps go numb. Shangguan Xi held his breath, his eyes staring fixedly at the scene before him.


    Phew...


    In the next moment, an uproar broke out, and the sounds of people inhaling cold air rose and fell one after another.


    Without a doubt, the name ''Lin Xing'' pushed Shangguan Xi down. Moreover, he charged into the top 100 without any hesitation.


    What was even more eye-catching was that the crowd of one hundred people had yet to come to a stop. Moreover, their speed was only growing faster and faster. In a blink of an eye, they had already reached the 50th level.


    "Lin Xing."


    Shangguan XIao was angered to the point of turning green. Gritting his teeth, he spat out the word, and at the same time he shot a cold glance at Lin Xing''s back.


    As for the group of people flattering him earlier, they were even more speechless.

 C214

    The seventh column!


    At this moment, Lin Xing''s name finally froze and he impressively appeared at the seventh position. No one around him was unmoved.


    Qin Xiao jubilantly hopped over to Lin Xing. She really wanted to throw herself into his embrace. Sure enough, she was not disappointed. She knew that Lin Xing would definitely be able to do it.


    Shangguan Xi and the group of people beside him all had gloomy expressions. Shangguan Xi growled, but there was nothing he could do. He could only accept his fate.


    Lin Qi looked at the seventh column and stared at his name. His mouth twitched and he felt quite helpless. He had never imagined that he would be able to rank so high.


    He had still underestimated the heaven-defying level of the Ancient God''s body. To have a physique that could be exiled by the gods, he definitely had to have the right to act arrogantly.


    It was precisely because he possessed such heaven-defying talent that he was ranked so high on the Heavenly Stele.


    Then, his gaze shifted upwards as he memorized the six names in front of him.


    "Hmph."


    The voice was like thunder, but as dull as a mountain. It came from Shangguan Xi''s mouth and his expression was ice-cold. With a wave of his sleeve, he led the group of people away without even looking back.


    "Alliance Chief, this is too exciting! Wait until I tell that kid Chen Yu about this. Let''s see if he still dares to refuse you from the bottom of his heart." Qin Xiao puffed his cheeks and said with a smile.


    "It''s better to keep a low profile." Lin Qi rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly.


    "No, we must let Sunset Fish know about this matter. Recently, he has been too arrogant, and even said that he will push you down from the position of Alliance Head." Qin Xiao wrinkled her nose.


    "Up to you." Lin Xing said in a helpless tone.


    Having said that, since he had ascended to the position of deputy chief, Sunset Fish had been quite unbridled and unscrupulous. He did not put anyone in his eyes, including Lin Xing.


    Although he was quite obedient to Lin Qi, he would often do some small tricks behind his back. As a result, the four halls under his command were filled with smoke and fumes, and they did not listen to him like he did with the Seven Rolling Knives.


    Lin Xing gazed at the back view of Shangguan Xi and the rest as they walked away, saying, "Let''s also catch up with them quickly."


    Qin Xiao nodded with a smile as she quickly followed Lin Xing into the deepest parts of the Morning Sea area.


    They didn''t walk far before they stopped.


    Shangguan Xi and the rest stopped in front of them, and around them were three corpses.


    "He''s one of us, the World Alliance. How could he die here?"


    When she saw the three corpses, Qin Xiao''s expression changed. She recognized them from afar.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi''s expression turned cold. He quickly walked over and his cold eyes focused on the three corpses lying on the ground.


    All of them had died miserable deaths. Their bodies were covered with blood, and they had long since died. Seeing this, Lin Xing clenched his fists tightly.


    "You did it?" After Qin Xiao finished observing a corpse''s wound, she suddenly stood up and pointed her sword at Shangguan Xi.


    Shangguan Xi sneered coldly, "Palace Head Qin, I''ll have to trouble you to observe carefully before you speak. As soon as we arrived, the rest of you have already fled, and the three of them have clearly died four hours ago."


    "Qin Xiao, he''s right. It has nothing to do with them." Lin Xing''s cold voice sounded, dispelling Qin Xiao''s anger.


    "Ahh, let me remind you two. I can see that there are two more corpses in front of us. One of them is not completely dead, but it will be soon." Shangguan Xi said with a playful look on his face. It was fine if he didn''t have any sympathy, but on the contrary, he was ridiculing him.


    Lin Xing''s heart jolted and he did not doubt the truth. He pulled Qin Xiao along as he ran forward.


    Shangguan Xi had the cultivation of the Jing Tian, so whether it was his perception or his thoughts, they were all far above the Sky Tribulation Realm. If he said he had them, then he definitely had them, and there was no need to deceive Lin Xing.


    As a matter of fact, this was the truth. Lin Xing and Qin Xiao had just run two miles when they saw two people lying on the ground. One of them was a cold corpse and the other one was breathing weakly.


    "Alliance Master ¡­" Seeing that Lin Qi had woken up in front of him, that person, Jie''s face was instantly filled with joy and gratification, as he weakly spat out two words.


    Lin Qi stuck out a finger and blocked his mouth, signalling for him to be quiet. At the same time, he quickly checked his injuries, and his face darkened. He hastily took out a pill from his soul hole and fed it to him.


    "Who is it? His attacks are too ruthless. All the meridians in his body are broken, and all his organs are shattered. Even the Great Firmament Golden Immortal cannot save him." Qin Xiao was filled with anger as she roared loudly.


    Lin Qi wiped away the sweat on his face as boundless killing intent raged in his heart. Qin Xiao was right. From the looks of the injuries of this hero, even a golden immortal from the Great Luo Empire would not be able to save him.


    At this time, Shangguan Xi led a large group of people and followed, looking at this scene playfully.


    After that person consumed the pill, he also received Lin Xing''s Pulse Pushing Method to maintain his vitality. Although his complexion was still pale, it was obvious that he had some strength left in his voice.


    He said weakly and urgently, "Alliance Head, Zhu Liang betrayed us. Quickly go and save Seventh Vice-President, quickly."


    After finishing his words, his head tilted to the side as he died.


    "What? Where did Zhu Liang get that dog to rebel? That bastard!" Qin Xiao roared. She was extremely infuriated.


    "Haha ¡­"


    Shangguan Xi laughed maniacally, and the group of people beside him also applauded and left.

 C215

    "If Zhu Liang really dares to rebel, I will definitely kill him with my own hands."


    Before he finished his sentence, Lin Xing had already dashed out with Qin Xiao following closely behind.


    The two of them moved with incredible speed. It was rare to see someone in the Heaven Smiting Stage, so they did not dare to forget what the person had said before he died.


    Seven blades are in danger!


    The two of them ran like the wind. After running for about fifteen minutes, they finally detected a shocking fluctuation of fighting force in front of them.


    Waves of air blasted out layer after layer, followed by powerful ripples. This was a battle between the Tianshou clan, and the battle was extremely fierce.


    As Lin Xing and Qin Xiao arrived, they saw the Seven Rolling Sabers struggling to survive under the hands of the three young men. Their bodies were bathed in blood and there were shocking wounds everywhere on their bodies.


    Beside the Seven Rolling Knives, there were still over fifty Qi warriors and three elites. However, those people could not help at all. As soon as they rushed over, they were either blown away or killed.


    Up until now, the Seven Rolling Blades had clearly been depleted of their strength, and it looked like they were about to be killed by the three of them.


    Of those three people, two of them were people that Lin Xing recognized. The other one was Zhu Liang. To Lin Qi''s surprise, Zhu Liang had actually advanced to the Heaven Opening Realm. He was now a genuine Heaven Ranked monster. One of them was the girl with sword pupils whom he had seen at the Sword Discourse Assembly, as well as a young man clad in armor.


    Although the woman was only in the Heaven Smiting Stage, her sword attacks were ruthless and ruthless. Most of the injuries on her body were caused by her.


    "Give me your life. Seventh Alliance Master. "


    Zhu Liang laughed coldly as a divine art immediately evolved. Five red lights circled above his head like dragons in the sea. Then, with an explosive shout, they charged towards the Seven Rolling Knives.


    Seeing this scene, Seven Rolling Knife''s face showed despair and indignation, and he used a weak wind lemon to resist.


    However, how could the seven scrolls, which had already exhausted all of their strength, withstand this powerful attack of Zhu Liang''s?


    At this critical moment, an even more violent gust of wind rose from behind the Seven Rolling Knives, followed by the figure of a teenager leaping up from the ground.


    "Chief."


    "Lin Xing."


    Zhu Liang''s expression immediately changed. The armored young man let out a cold laugh as he cried out in alarm.


    In the next moment, the two forces collided. Feng Li''s might was like thunder as he easily dispelled Zhu Liang''s attack. Moreover, he was still continuing to advance forward.


    Zhu Liang let out a muffled moan, waved his sleeve, and another red beam of light darted out, tearing apart the remaining lime.


    At the same time, Lin Xing grabbed the Seven Rolling Saber Leader and retreated rapidly. The fifty Qi warriors instantly surrounded him.


    "What''s going on? Why isn''t Chen Yu here? Why are only you people here? "


    Lin Qi pulled out his Seven Rolling Knives and smoothly landed on the ground. With a gloomy face, he asked three questions in a row. His tone was extremely cold and his eyes were filled with boundless rage.


    Seven Rolling Knives'' injuries were very severe, but it was not life-threatening. After receiving the pill from Qin Xiao, his face flushed red as he swallowed it.


    He sighed deeply and said, "I will discuss it with Immersed Fish and we will move out together when Alliance Head arrives, but Immersed Fish refused to listen, afraid that the treasures inside would be taken away by someone else. He insisted on going first, and in the end, I let him lead the rest of the group away first.


    He paused for a moment, pointed at Zhu Liang and said fiercely, "But who would have thought that when we met the members of the Black Tortoise World Alliance and the First World Alliance, not only did they join hands to deal with us, but also Zhu Liang betrayed us at a crucial moment and ambushed me, then the three of them came to kill me together."


    "This sunken fish has no sense of how a king should act." Qin Xiao stomped his feet in anger.


    Lin Qi stepped forward and patted Seven Rolling Sword''s shoulder. "You''re being considerate," he said gently.


    He then turned around and looked at Zhu Liang with a cold glint in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "I don''t know what benefits the Black Tortoise World Alliance has given you for ruthlessly killing even your comrades who once fought under the waves of beasts. I just want to tell you that the traitor did not have a good ending."


    "Alliance Master Lin, you''re about to die and you still want to scare me?" I might as well tell you the truth, I successfully advanced to the Heaven''s Perception yesterday and obtained the title of Heaven Saint Master. I''ve coveted the position of deputy chief for a long time, but it''s clear that there won''t be a place for me in the World Alliance. Brother Qi will leave the Heavenly Cauldron tomorrow. He has already promised that as long as I come to the Black Tortoise World Alliance, he will ascend to the position of vice president. Moreover, the leader will leave before me. But, aside from being a Palace Master of the World Alliance, what else can you give me? " Zhu Liang sneered repeatedly. At the end of his words, he looked at the armored youth and smiled.


    "So that''s how it is." Lin Qi''s posture slowed down. Without saying anything, he cast a glance at the armor-clad young man.


    This man was the other deputy chief of the Black Turtle World Alliance, Qi Liqun.


    Then, Lin Qi shifted his gaze to the woman with the sword pupils and asked, "Half white, I wonder what benefits the Black Tortoise World Alliance has promised you?"


    Lin Qi had once ordered his men to investigate this woman with the Sword Eyes. As for her background, he now knew everything about her.


    His name was half hidden and half white, two days after Lin Xing entered the Heavenly Cauldron. Relying on his mysterious eyes, he was already one of the three Great Leaders of the World Alliance, and his fame was not inferior to Lin Xing''s.


    That once overweeningly arrogant Ling Yan was now standing respectfully behind her.

 C216

    "You don''t need to care about that. You only need to know that the benefits the Black Tortoise World Alliance gave me are enough to buy you three lives."


    Hidden half white body, long and slender, emitting an indescribably sharp aura, causing people to shudder. Even though his appearance was ordinary, he stood out like a crane amongst a flock of chickens.


    "Alliance Head Lin, you are destined to die today. Why don''t you quickly come to me and kneel and beg for mercy? Perhaps, I can give you a quick death." Qi Liqun sneered.


    "How dare you!" Even Mu Yuantian was defeated by our chief, do you think you can win? " Qin Xiao roared.


    "Haha ¡­" The thin and weak figure of Zhu Liang said coldly, "The Seven-rolled Knife has already lost the power to fight again. Right now, you only have Lin Xing and Tianshou, and we have three. How do we fight them?" As for your two heroes, I can destroy them with a flick of my finger. "


    Qin Xiao and the seven scimitars had especially grim expressions. They looked indignant, but they had no strength to refute.


    "There''s no time to lose, let''s do it." Qi Liqun urged, in case there was a change.


    Yin Qiangbai and Zhu Liang nodded at the same time, then advanced step by step towards Lin Xing''s location.


    Lin Xing had also brought out all of the lemons in his body. He clenched his fists harder than steel, and cold flames burned in his eyes, striking fear into the hearts of the onlookers.


    However, just as the four of them were about to fight, a red figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Qi.


    "Little brother Lin Xing, did you run into any trouble?" The person who had come was in the shade of a tree. He greeted Lin Xing very cordially.


    Lin Qi broke into a smile as he looked at her beautiful features, nodding his head, "It''s just a small problem, not worth mentioning."


    When Yin Qiangbai, Zhu Liang, and Qi Liqun saw an outsider come before Lin Qi, they immediately frowned. They then sensed Zi Yin''s Qi and couldn''t help but smile.


    However, the next moment, a large group of people arrived. The one leading them was Battling Heavens brotherhood''s leader, Lu Qi. There were a total of seven to eight hundred people behind her. It was likely that all of Zhan Tian''s men were already here.


    "Little big brother, let me tell you a piece of good news. The chief has already rebuilt the Dian Yue Palace and even made me the leader of the Palace." Zi Yin glanced at Lu Qi, then turned to Lin Xing and giggled.


    "Exactly, don''t let down the hopes of your Patriarch." Lin Xing smiled as he turned to look at Lu Qi, who was standing a short distance away, and asked, "Chief Lu, how about we make a deal?"


    Lu Qi had asked Zi Yin to rebuild the palace and take on the position of hall master. Her intentions were rather far-reaching, and it was obvious that she wanted to befriend him. Upon seeing Zhan Tian''s entire team appear here, she heaved a sigh of relief.


    Lu Qi''s bright eyes swept over Yin Qiubai, Zhu Liang and the rest. She frowned slightly before turning to Lin Xing and said with a smile, "Alliance Head Lin, please speak. If both parties have interests in each other, I would be happy to make this deal."


    Just as they were about to open their mouths to stop him, Lin Xing took a step ahead of them and said, "Please stop Yin Qiubai and Qi Li for half an incense''s time so that I can clean up my sect. When this is over, I will take out five thousand top-grade spirit crystals as compensation."


    Five thousand!


    Zhu Liang was visibly moved. This Lin Xing was truly rich and imposing.


    "Deal." Lu Qi didn''t even bother to think as she spoke to a young man beside her, "There''s no need to say anything. Go and stop Yin Qiubai."


    The young man named Speechless slowly nodded with a wooden expression. "Clang" A long sword came out of its scabbard and took two steps forward.


    Staring at half white, a sharp voice came out, "I have long heard that you possess the legendary supreme sword tool, Sword Eye. "Although we are both members of the Heavenly Sword Palace, we have no way of knowing what happens to us. Today, we stand on different sides, so why don''t you let me witness the power of your Sword Eyes?"


    "Good, there''s no need to say anything. I have long heard of your great name. Since I can fight with you today, my trip to the Heavenly Cauldron has not been in vain."


    A celestial sword appeared out of nowhere in Yin Qiubai''s hand. His pupils slightly shifted and immediately shot out a sharp gaze like a sharp knife. His tone was even more tyrannical than the man''s, giving him an inexplicable deterrent force.


    Speechless held onto his sword with both hands. His expression was dull and lifeless. It was hard to tell what he was thinking as the silhouette of a woman gradually grew larger in his eyes.


    Clang...


    With a groan, Wu-Shuang raised his sword with both hands and charged towards the incoming half white sword light. First, his sword intent crazily expanded before a sharp blade came out of its scabbard and horizontally struck the sword.


    While his body moved, the immortal sword in his palm quickly rotated. At the same time that it dazzled people''s eyes, numerous sword blades continuously slashed out.


    Speechless was not simple either. One of his sword techniques had reached perfection, easily neutralizing the half-white attack. Moreover, the moment he found the right time, he would immediately counterattack. Every sword strike would carry a ton of damage.


    At the same time the two engaged in an intense battle, Lu Qi walked out. She raised her head to look at Qi Liqun who was standing in midair, a faint smile hung on her lips as she said, "Vice Lord Qi, is it time for us?"


    "Alright."


    Qi Liqun only replied with a single word. To him, fighting with Lu Qi was an honor.


    Lu Qi was the first to make the first move. Her first move was a Divine Art. She conjured a bunch of fireballs and threw them at Qi Liqun from all directions.


    Puff ¡­


    Naturally, Qi Liqun didn''t want to be outdone. He also cast a Divine Art, and immediately, a dark and cold space took shape around him. When the fireballs smashed into him, there was a ''pu'' sound, and they disappeared like mud into the sea.


    Lu Qi did not panic at all. Her smile did not lessen as she flipped her hand and a sword appeared out of thin air. She flew into the air and charged toward Qi Liqun.

 C217

    "I''ve never heard that the alliance master of the World Conqueror Alliance is a sword immortal."


    Seeing Lu Qi come at them with an immortal sword in her hand, Qi Licheng''s expression was one of astonishment. He had never thought that Lu Qi would use such a move.


    "You don''t know too much."


    Lu Qi chuckled. The attacks from her sword skills were actually even more powerful than the words she spoke.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing''s pupils contracted. He could sense that Lu Qi was in mortal danger.


    As expected, these heavyweights were not easy to deal with. They hid themselves well.


    Lin Xing''s eyes swept over Zhan Tian''s crowd again. Since he didn''t see Mu Rui this time, he should have left the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Just as his thoughts were turning, a ferocious figure had already rushed towards him. With a raise of its hand, it activated a divine technique. Moreover, it also released a power that was only present in the Heaven Speeding Stage.


    "Lin Xing, in truth, I have never submitted to you before. Today, I will trample over you and show everyone in the World Alliance that you are not even fit to carry a shoe in front of me."


    At the same time, Zhu Liang''s gloomy voice reached Lin Xing''s ears.


    Lin Qi did not utter a word. Now that things had come to this, there was no need for him to waste words. He retrieved two Immortal swords from his soul hole and disappeared in the air.


    "How can he be so fast?"


    As soon as Zhu Liang arrived not far away from Lin Qi, he saw that he had disappeared in the blink of an eye. Not even a shadow of him was left behind, which caused him to be stunned for a moment.


    The next moment, a sense of danger came from above his head. He suddenly looked up and saw Lin Xing diving down with the immortal sword in hand. His eyes revealed a fierce light and he did not dodge the counterattack.


    However, once again, he missed. With two flashes of sword light, he launched two soft attacks, and Lin Xing''s body had long since disappeared.


    Immortal Burying Sword Technique!


    At this moment, Lin Qi had executed the Immortal Burying Sword Technique. His body was as nimble as the wind and his sword light was as fast as lightning. There was not a single trace of him being caught.


    This caused Zhu Liang to feel deeply puzzled. He could not even touch the hem of Lin Ming''s clothes. How could he continue fighting? He suddenly felt at a loss. Helplessly, he immediately released a large amount of divine power that swept out in all directions.


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, a weak sound of wind breaking rang out, and a sword light appeared out of nowhere, piercing through his divine force. Because he was caught off guard, his left arm was directly chopped off.


    Ah ¡­


    Blood splattered as he howled in agony. Lin Xing was simply too bizarre, he had managed to silently cut off one of his arms.


    He was incomparably furious. His right fist shook, and a curtain of light enveloped the entire area. A brilliant light shone out, and Lin Xing''s figure immediately appeared, leaving no room for hiding.


    Lin Qi did not panic. With a cold glint in his eyes, he continued to attack with both swords.


    To his surprise, after he was unable to hide his body any longer, Zhu Liang did not attack. Instead, he turned around and fled out of the light barrier, fleeing into the distance.


    In fact, he was truly afraid. Lin Xing who was able to behead the Tianshou with his sword was not someone that he, a person who had just entered the Heaven''s Speed, could contend with.


    The strange sword skill and unpredictable figure caused his heart to palpitate abnormally.


    Lin Qi looked at Zhu Liang''s fleeing back and coldly snorted. He broke through the barrier of light with his sword and in the next moment, his body charged forward. He arrived in front of the fifty people standing behind Zhu Liang.


    "If you change your mind now, I can let bygones be bygones."


    The moment he said those words, he no longer paid attention to their attitudes. He turned around and chased after Zhu Liang.


    These fifty people were all members of the World Alliance who had betrayed Zhu Liang earlier.


    Zhu Liang''s cultivation base had already reached the speed of lightning, so he was able to fly through the air at a speed even faster than lightning. Pitiful Lin Xing chased after him, tired to the point of death. However, he was not far behind.


    After about half an incense stick of time, Lin Xing had caught up to a large cloud of red fog. This place was oppressive and depressing, the visibility was extremely low. Lin Xing could only rely on Zhu Liang''s aura to chase after him.


    It was quiet and quiet, deep and small, surrounded by a red haze.


    At this moment, Lin Xing suddenly slowed down his pace. The two Immortal swords were placed in front of him, ready for battle.


    BOOM!


    Suddenly, the mist on the left side began to surge. Then, it began to rapidly spin, as if it was forming a whirlpool as it headed towards Lin Qi.


    Behind him, a thin and weak figure could be vaguely seen.


    Puff ¡­


    Streams of sword Qi shot out, instantly shattering the haze and dissipating it. At the same time, Zhu Liang''s Divine Art had already neared him.


    This move was undoubtedly a fatal attack. For a moment, Lin Xing did not lift his swords. He immediately made a decisive move and activated Disenchanting Phantom Destruction.


    His pupils slightly shifted, appearing like two black holes. When Zhu Liang met his gaze, he was instantly overwhelmed with shock. His brain did not listen to his commands, and a brief moment of dizziness came over him.


    When he came back to his senses. Lin Qi took advantage of the opening and pierced through his chest with his sword.


    "Ah ¡­" Alliance Head, I was wrong. Please spare my life. In the future, I will continue to be in front of you and will never betray you again. "


    Lin Qi took out the celestial sword, and Zhu Liang''s chest immediately bled. He landed on the ground, begging for mercy with a pained expression on his face.


    "Too late, this is what happens to traitors."


    Lin Qi couldn''t be bothered to listen to such nonsense. Deathly divine force sprayed out like fine powder onto Zhu Liang''s body. He didn''t even have time to scream before his body turned into a pool of blood.


    Lin Qi numbly watched as all of this happened. He withdrew his longsword and took out Zhu Liang''s soul hole from the void, stuffing all of the things inside into his own waist pouch.

 C218

    Although he had killed Zhu Liang, the matter that worried Lin Xing the most had only just begun. He had walked for a short while yet still hadn''t found an exit.


    The place was shrouded in a red haze. The visibility was extremely low. Lin Xing was in deep thought, but he still could not figure out the path he would take.


    Back then, since he had been chasing after Zhu Liang, he hadn''t paid much attention to the terrain, and instead, had fallen into a situation where he couldn''t advance or retreat.


    Suddenly, there was a change in his pupils. The interior was vast and open, and even deeper inside, there seemed to be sparks of fire pulsing. The moment the illusion was activated, the time in the surroundings seemed to have frozen.


    He wanted to use this illusion to break through the red mist and find the right path.


    "Hmm? An illusion technique? "


    Suddenly, his gaze froze and his expression turned to one of astonishment. He saw a cave with weak flames seeping out of it.


    It was clear that the cave was covered with illusions. If he did not activate his illusions and destroy them, it would have been impossible for him to discover it.


    With an astonished attitude, he walked towards the entrance of the cave.


    "Chi!"


    His two fingers turned into swords and lightly sliced the barrier. A large crack appeared on the barrier, and then, he drilled into it.


    Stepping into the cave, the scene before him caused him to be astonished. His gaze slowly fell upon a girl with a naked body, and blood trickled down his nose.


    There was a large hot spring in the cave. It was filled with spirit energy and was constantly bubbling. It also emitted a strange fragrance that made people feel refreshed after taking a whiff of it.


    The most important thing was that a naked woman was floating in the hot spring. Her whole body was like a beautiful jade, perfect and flawless. It radiated an enchanting glow, smooth and magnificent.


    "Su Nian!"


    When Lin Qi saw the woman''s beautiful appearance, he immediately cried out in alarm. Never in his dreams would he have imagined that.


    This naked lady was actually the White Tiger Alliance Chief, Su Nian.


    Su Nian was lying on top of the pond with her eyes wide open. The vitality in her body was very vigorous, but her eyes were dull and lifeless. She did not notice this uninvited guest at all.


    "No, this smell!"


    Lin Qi sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly blocked his nose and mouth, but it was too late. That strange fragrance that carried a powerful force directly rushed into his mind.


    That power was extremely chaotic and powerful, causing his mind to become as blank as a sheet of paper. He forgot everything, and even if he wanted to resist, he was unable to bring out any strength.


    In the next moment, his eyes became lifeless. He couldn''t help but slowly strip off his clothes and walk towards Su Nian who was in the hot spring.


    When Lin Xing woke up from his stupor, he looked around and then looked at his body. He was completely stunned.


    Unexpectedly, he was lying naked in the pool. As for Su Nian, she had long since disappeared. It was unknown when she had left.


    Lin Qi shook his head vigorously, feeling very heavy and tired. Suddenly, a vague memory rushed into his mind.


    He remembered. Because of the strange fragrance in the air, his mind went blank. Then he took off his clothes and walked into the hot spring. His body naturally wrapped around Su Nian''s.


    "Su Nian!"


    Lin Qi wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He had never thought that he would be played in such a manner. Not only that, but it was with a woman he had never seen before.


    He memorized this name with all his heart, feeling guilty and conflicted at the same time. In the end, he could only sigh deeply.


    He walked out of the pool and quickly put on his clothes. He tidied up his wet hair and accidentally saw a celestial sword that was broken into four pieces on the ground.


    The corner of Lin Qi''s mouth twitched. He walked over and picked up the four broken swords, then carefully put them into his soul hole.


    Without a doubt, this must have been left behind by Su Nian.


    After she woke up, she saw that her naked body and Lin Qi were entwined together. She would be ashamed and resentful at the same time.


    She took out her immortal sword, wanting to kill Lin Xing so that this matter would dissipate with the wind.


    But even after struggling for a long time, he still didn''t stop. In his anger, he cut the celestial sword into four pieces and threw them on the ground to vent the anger in his heart. The intent was simple and clear.


    Of course, this was only Lin Xing''s guess. In reality, he was feeling rather helpless in his heart. At this moment, Su Nian''s silhouette was akin to a nightmare shrouding his heart, making it impossible for him to erase her.


    Ever since he started cultivating, there were many girls that were related to him. The only one that he truly loved was his childhood senior sister, Cang Xiaoxiao.


    Yet now, with an unfamiliar woman, this matter had actually occurred. This caused Qin Wentian to smile at Cang and feel a lot of remorse.


    As for Su Nian, she felt even more guilty and helpless.


    If Su Nian had killed him while he was still unconscious, he might have felt better. Even if he had died at her hands, he would have been more willing.


    The only thing that made him gratified was that after soaking in the hot spring, his cultivation had increased by another level. Right now, if he wanted to break through to the Heaven Opening Realm, it would be a piece of cake for him.


    At this point, Lin Qi felt helpless. After a long period of silence, he refocused his agitated mind and walked out of the cave.


    As soon as he left the cave, Lin Xing continued to incite the illusion to search for the exit.


    At this moment, his gaze focused again, and he saw a glowing red thing faintly discernible in the red fog.


    Surprised, he quickly walked over and saw that it was a flower. Its shape was not much different from normal flowers and plants. The only difference was that the red light it emitted was even more eye-catching than the red fog. It proved that this flower was not simple.

 C219

    After observing the red flower for a long time, Lin Qi was slightly happy. He slowly walked over and tried to pull up the red flower by its roots.


    Puff ¡­


    However, before his fingers could touch the red flower, he saw a wretched figure pouncing towards him like a reincarnated hungry ghost, pressing the red flower to the bottom of his body.


    Lin Qi was stunned. He had not expected that at this critical moment, someone would appear out of nowhere. Looking at the wretched figure on the ground, his expression suddenly turned strange.


    "Old Shangqi?" Lin Xing furrowed his brows. This figure was too familiar to him, and he would never be able to forget it.


    "Hmm?" Amidst his surprise, the figure slightly lifted his head and turned towards Lin Qi. Immediately, he said with a face of indignation, "Brat, it''s you again. Hmph, I''ll tell you this. This divine medicine is mine. You are not allowed to take it."


    "It''s really you."


    Looking at his old but lowly face, Lin Qi furrowed his brows. His expression was one of insanity, and he wanted to lift him up and give him a good beating.


    "I''m not snatching it away, get up." Lin Qi felt helpless, he was unlucky to encounter this old man.


    "Mhmm, that''s more like it."


    The old man pulled out the red flower root, wrinkled his nose and hummed a few times. But just as he was about to put the magic medicine into his soul hole, Lin Xing''s next sentence froze him.


    "Hmm? That''s not right, why haven''t you left the Heavenly Cauldron? "


    Lin Qi smacked his head as he suddenly recalled something extremely important. He stared at the old man full of eyes, wanting to see through his entire body.


    He remembered that when he had first entered the Heavenly Cauldron, Tan Zhen had mentioned that Old Feng had already been at the Heavenly Cauldron for two months. Since Lin Ming had awoken, it had at least been one and a half month since he had entered the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Where did he come from?


    Suddenly, he remembered the first time he had spoken to old Feng Qi. Back then, he had wrongly asked Lin Qi, "Is this the first time you''ve come to the Heavenly Cauldron?"


    During the last beast tide, when Lin Xing went to rescue Fang Yue Palace, he didn''t find Old Mongol. He also asked Meng Luo Yu about the disappearance of Old Mongol after he went to the World Alliance.


    At that time, Lin Qi did not take it to heart and had assumed that he had already left the Heavenly Cauldron. But now, he had actually appeared again. Just thinking about it made him feel incredulous.


    "Boy, you remembered wrong, it''s a coincidence, but I left the Heavenly Cauldron tomorrow. I don''t want to come to the land of the morning to search for more spiritual medicines at the last moment." The old man said with a smile that didn''t reach his eyes.


    Lin Qi''s mouth twitched, he did not believe what he said. This person was very strange, so he should have been prepared. He subconsciously took three steps back to maintain a certain distance.


    The old man''s expression suddenly changed, and a sense of majesty exuded from him. He asked Lin Xing word by word, "Brat, are you an Ancient God''s physique?"


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows. His heart trembled as he calmly asked, "How did you know?"


    He hadn''t told anyone about his Ancient God''s physique since he arrived at the Heaven Furnace.


    "No wonder... "No wonder you can train multiple types of power at the same time." The old man narrowed his eyes and sized Lin Qi up with an interested look, which was accompanied by a malicious expression.


    Lin Xing completely ignored his attitude. Hearing his words, his heart skipped a beat and he immediately asked, "What do you mean? To be able to cultivate multiple types of energy, is it related to the Ancient God''s body? "


    His face was filled with disbelief. He had always thought that the reason why he could cultivate multiple types of power with others was due to the help of his golden mace. Now that he heard the old man''s shocking words, could it not be? It had something to do with the Ancient God''s body?


    His mind actually began to waver.


    "In the ancient days, the Ancient God''s body was also called the ''Omnipotent Body''. Omnipotent! Why don''t you think about it yourself. With such a heaven-defying physique, being able to be banished by the Heavens is something that''s natural. But then again, being able to break through to the Heaven Smiting Stage, is truly an anomaly. " The old man smiled mysteriously and praised him.


    "Omnipotent Body."


    Lin Qi was shocked by what he saw. Although the old man''s words were full of bluff, they were reasonable and reasonable, enough to make him believe seventy percent of it.


    He had never heard of it before, and he did not know if it was true or false.


    At this point, Lin Xing smiled and said, "But I''ve already broken through to the sky level, the curse of Heaven has already been broken by me, the glory of the Ancient God''s body will definitely reappear."


    Hearing this, the old man immediately laughed in disdain.


    "Ignorant, stupid, useless trash."


    The old man rolled his eyes and scolded Lin Qi three times.


    Lin Xing frowned as he continued, "If you think this way, then you''re not far from death."


    "What do you mean?" Lin Xing said with a gloomy face.


    "If you don''t believe me, you can give it a try." The old man laughed sinisterly before slapping his butt on the ground, as if he was waiting to watch a good show.


    Lin Qi pondered for a long time before suddenly raising his head and looking up at the sky. A great amount of lemons rushed out from the top of his head and circled around his body. Then, they immediately soared into the sky.


    "Chi!"


    As soon as the wind blew into the sky, a strange sound rang out.


    That sound was like a drum but not a drum, like a bell but not a bell. It seemed to come from the deepest parts of the world, and its divine might was like a prison as it enveloped the earth.


    "The Voice of Heaven."


    Lin Qi was horrified. He immediately stopped what he was doing, and at the same time, retracted all of the lemons that had been ejected from his body.

 C220

    Lin Qi paled in shock and hurriedly dispersed the wind lemon he had brought out, trying to conceal his own Qi. The sound that lingered in the sky gradually disappeared with the wind.


    "How could this be?"


    He was in a daze, unable to believe his eyes. He had already broken through the Void Tribulation Realm, and the shackles of heaven had already been removed. Why would there still be the voice of the heavens?


    Could it be that the ancient god''s body had just started its nightmare? His scalp felt numb, as if he had fallen into an abyss. He encountered an unprecedented challenge and pressure.


    The old man smiled disdainfully as he answered, "Hmph, this is called disobeying this old man''s words and suffering is right in front of me. Not only will you, a cultivator of the Heaven Speeding Stage, attract the voices of the heavens, every time you rush to a higher level, you will encounter these kinds of situations."


    Lin Qi sucked in a breath of cold air. After a long while, he could not calm down. He asked in a deep voice, "Is there a way to break it?"


    Old Feng Qi immediately stood up from the ground, dusting off the dust on his bottom, pretending to be an otherworldly expert, and said with a heavy expression: "The heavens are kind, this old man thinks that you are a good person, today I will give you directions."


    I have heard that in the ancient times, there was a person with an Ancient God''s body. That person''s experience was very bumpy, and at the age of sixteen, he was able to reach the Heaven Smiting Realm, but when he advanced to the sky tribulation, his cultivation was crippled by the gods, which is fortunate for him that he managed to survive. And later on, he had a completely new path, which was to cultivate his body and God Power.


    "Absolute Monarch Sanctuary?"


    Lin Qi''s eyelids twitched. His heart skipped a beat as he asked in a low voice, "Is that body Severing Great Honored Warrior called Big Tomb Zai?"


    "Hmm?" The elder looked at him weirdly, and then he seemed to have thought of something. He slapped his forehead and said, "That''s right, that''s right, he''s called Big Tomb Zai. I almost forgot this name."


    "It''s him."


    Lin Qi was aghast. The waves in his heart were monstrous, he was simply unable to remain calm.


    No matter what, he never thought that the Great Tomb Slaughter would also possess an Ancient God''s body.


    Suddenly, he felt that his life and fate had become extremely complicated and confusing.


    He was silent but agitated, and a look of deep worry appeared on his face. The place where he was sealed was right next to his house, and coincidentally, he was born with the Ancient God''s body.


    No one would believe it if they said that there was no ghost here.


    "Kid, today I will show mercy. Seeing that you are in luck I have a body tempering technique. How about I sell it to you at a cheaper price?" The old man suddenly walked over and winked at Lin Qi.


    With his thoughts interrupted, he squinted his eyes and saw that wretched face. Lin Xing really wanted to strangle him to death.


    Ye Zichen rolled his eyes and snappily asked, "What body refining technique? Why don''t you show it to me first?"


    "No, that won''t do. You take the body tempering technique and run. Where will I find you?" The old man shook his head like a rattle drum.


    Lin Qi was speechless. The egg was so angry that it had lightened up.


    "But I can give you a simple introduction of my body transformation technique. It''s called the Star Shifting Art, so forget it. You should rely on the words'' Star Shifting ''to make up for it. In short, you won''t suffer a loss if you buy it, and you won''t be fooled either." The old man chuckled.


    "How many top quality spirit crystals?" Lin Xing asked.


    Seeing that it worked, the old man immediately said with a mischievous smile, "No more, no less than ten thousand top quality spirit crystals."


    "Ten thousand?" Lin Qi''s jaw dropped. A small steamed bun was more than enough to fill his mouth.


    F * ck, this is really an exorbitant price.


    A normal divine or immortal technique would be able to kill five hundred top grade spirit crystals, but for old man Feng Qi, he could only open his mouth and say ten thousand.


    "Don''t worry, this old man will vouch for you. As long as you buy it, I definitely won''t regret it. If you''re not satisfied, I can return the 10,000 top grade spirit crystals without any problems." Old Sang Qi asked.


    "Really?" Lin Qi rolled his eyes. He didn''t quite believe him.


    However, due to the oppression he felt from the heavens, he still took out ten thousand top grade spirit crystals out of the Soul Cave and scattered them all over the ground.


    It was fortunate that he was the champion and had ten times more resources than an ordinary person. If it were a normal Heaven Class freak, it would have been good enough for him to take out five thousand top grade spirit crystals.


    Even so, once he took out the ten thousand top grade spirit crystals, it proved that he was going to go bankrupt. Even his heart was bleeding.


    Looking at the top quality spirit crystals all over the ground, elder Shang''s eyes sparkled and his mouth watered. With a wave of his sleeve, he collected all ten thousand top quality spirit crystals into his waist pouch.


    At the same time, Lin Xing also stretched out his right hand.


    A crafty look flashed in the old man''s eyes. With a mischievous laugh, he retrieved an item from the soul hole and placed it in Lin Qi''s hand.


    "Huh?"


    Lin Xing stared at the item in his hand with a look of shock and anger on his face.


    He only saw that the book that the old man had given him was an old book. It was glowing with a yellow light and gave off a musty stench. The book was broken and broken to the point that no matter where he looked, it was full of loopholes.


    "Is this what you meant by ''Art of Shifting Stars''?" Lin Xing''s eyes were spitting fire.

 C221

    "That''s right, this is precisely the Star Shifting Art. Don''t just look at it, it''s broken. This item is extremely ancient, something that was left behind from the ancient times. You were able to buy such a good item, and this is truly your good fortune."


    The old man pursed his lips. Lin Xing was not satisfied with this, and he seemed to be even more dissatisfied with Lin Qi''s attitude of being at a disadvantage.


    From the looks of it, he seemed to be at a disadvantage compared to Lin Xing.


    "No way, return the money, I''m not buying anymore." Lin Qi felt like he had been cheated, and was so angry that he jumped to his feet.


    The old man''s face sank, and he snorted, "Brat, this old man is sincere in making the deal with you, how could I leave just because you say so? You really don''t put me in your eyes, this old man has always been honest, I have never lied to anyone when it comes to paying a single price."


    Lin Qi remained silent and did not continue arguing. He flipped his hand and an Immortal sword appeared out of nowhere. He raised his hand and slashed at old Feng Qi.


    "Motherf * cker, you want to revolt?! A gentleman doesn''t even want to speak. You shouldn''t bully an old man like that."


    If they disagreed, Lin Xing would immediately use violence, scaring the old man out of his wits, and he would run away with oil on his feet.


    "Halt."


    Lin Qi held the celestial sword and chased after them.


    As far as the eye could see, there was only a red haze. The visibility was extremely low. As Lin Qi chased, he could only vaguely see a figure faintly appearing in the red fog.


    Lin Qi was also furious and heartbroken. He really couldn''t believe old Feng Qi''s words. 10,000 top grade spirit crystals was just a broken chapter remnant, and it even turned mouldy.


    These ten thousand top grade spirit crystals were not a small number. They had to be recovered.


    At this point, he couldn''t help but increase his horse''s speed and give chase to the figure in the red mist.


    As the distance between the two gradually shortened, Lin Xing was overjoyed. He could not help but let out a sneer. Raising the immortal sword in his hand, he shot out a sharp sword aura.


    In the next moment, he was stunned.


    As the sword qi sliced through the air currents, the red mist along the way was also dispersed, and the black shadow in front of them could be seen clearly.


    However, the black shadow was clad in black armor, and its entire body was covered. Behind the mask, there were no eyeballs, only pitch-black darkness.


    Lin Qi was stunned, how was this still an old marvel, this was simply a dead spirit.


    The weapons of the undead were the two bronze axes hanging on its back. Because of the age of the axe, they were mottled with rust, but they were extremely sharp.


    With a single stride, the undead body appeared in front of Lin Qi. At the same time, it pulled out the second huge bronze axe from his back, and ferociously dropped down to the ground.


    Its movements were too fast, causing Lin Xing to be slightly dazed. Thus, he was unable to react in time. After slashing out with the sword qi, the celestial sword was placed behind his back. Now that he wanted to make a big move, it was too late.


    In a moment of desperation, he subconsciously pulled out the musty Star Shifting Technique in his left hand, randomly found something to block it.


    As soon as he made this move, he regretted it. How could a broken book block a tyrannical attack from a dead spirit?


    "Chi!"


    However, the end result was completely out of his expectations. Not only did the moldy book block the giant axe of the undead, it even bounced it back, and at the same time created a series of sparks.


    At the same time, Lin Xing immediately took out the Immortal Sword from his back and swung it at the Death Spirit Armor. Although it did not pierce through, it still sent it flying.


    What shocked him the most was that the book was still in perfect condition even after being attacked by the undead.


    He was stupefied. It was as if he had obtained a precious treasure. He hurriedly withdrew it back into his soul cave, and his heart felt much better.


    As soon as he finished this series of actions, he looked up and saw the dead spirit rushing towards him again. The two giant axes were as sharp as heaven and earth, as if they could destroy everything in their path.


    Lin Qi''s expression changed as he threw out two streams of sword Qi before running away.


    That might alone was enough to scare people.


    He could imagine that this was a dead spirit that could fight with a domain realm martial artist. It was incomparably powerful, and with his current cultivation, he simply couldn''t hope to defeat it.


    The undead that appeared in the Thunder Dominion only had the strength of a small star mountain and had no intention of killing Lin Xing. They only believed that Lin Xing was fated to be there, so they personally demonstrated the skill and bestowed him the Immortal Burying Sword Technique.


    However, this dead spirit was different, it wanted his life the moment it attacked.


    He ran like a madman. He could not beat them, but he also did not want to fight.


    As for the undead spirit, it pursued him relentlessly from behind. From time to time, it would slash out two axe seals, piercing through layers of red mist. From a distance, it slashed at Lin Xing.


    As Lin Qi resisted, he wanted to cry, but there were no tears. He had an expression like he had nothing to live for. The speed at which a character was being replaced was too fast.


    He suddenly thought of the old man, and his teeth started to itch. The next time he saw him, he would beat him up.


    After running for around half an incense stick of time, Lin Qi used the red fog as a cover and finally got rid of that undead spirit.


    As a result, he walked out of the red fog and arrived at a clearing. There was also a red fog here, but it was a bit sparse. It wasn''t as thick as before.


    He took two deep breaths and put the celestial sword into his soul hole. Then, he raised his head and accidentally saw an ancient tree standing in the distance.

 C222

    To be more precise, it could no longer be called a tree. It was simply like a boundless mountain.


    The tree was ten thousand zhang tall and pierced straight through the clouds. Its thick branches and leaves were like green umbrellas, covering the sky and blotting out the sun. It almost covered an area of five hundred miles.


    There were no plants on the ground filled with shadows. The tree itself was full of life, and it emanated an ancient and boundless aura.


    Lin Qi was stupefied. He had never seen such a huge tree before. It could be described as earthshaking. He could not imagine just how many years this tree had lived for.


    Lin Xing then noticed a group of figures intertwining with each other on the thick branches. They moved like a blur, constantly attacking the people closest to them.


    From their auras, it could be seen that these people were all Heavenly Hunters.


    And all of their targets were at the top of the tree.


    Three green and white balls of light were flickering in and out of the clouds high up in the sky, emitting a holy and peaceful halo. These three balls of light were the targets that these Tianshou were fighting over right now.


    As there were too many people arguing, there was no lack of people who were on the same level as Xiao Lin. During the flight or tread, the fighting never stopped, so no one got the advantage.


    Something that could attract a group of people fighting to the death was definitely not an ordinary object. Lin Xing Yi''s interest was piqued as he quickly rushed towards the ancient tree.


    Not long after, Lin Xing arrived at the base of the towering ancient tree.


    Most likely, all the monsters in the Heavenly Cauldron had arrived.


    Of course, there were even more people who just stood below with their heads up, watching the show. The only people who were really going to fight over the treasures were the Heaven Class monsters.


    Amongst the crowd of people, Lin Xing saw the figures of Seven Blades, Qin Xiao and a large group of other people. He then quickly walked over to that spot.


    When he approached, Qin Xiao was the first to notice him. She could not help but call out to him as an alliance head. When the people beside her heard this, they immediately lowered their heads and looked at him excitedly.


    Lin Qi''s expression suddenly turned heavy. He did not ask any questions about the World Alliance and the Land of Chen, but instead said something.


    "Did you see Su Nian?"


    When these words fell into the eardrums of the seven scrolls and the others, their expressions immediately became extremely strange. They even stared at him with strange expressions.


    In fact, after Lin Xing said this, even he himself was stunned. His eyes were glued to the spot.


    This sentence was spoken without any thought in mind. Even Lin Xing himself felt that it was inconceivable.


    Ever since the incident at the pond, Lin Xing discovered that Su Nian''s figure had already been completely imprinted into his mind. Moreover, it had even slightly shaken Cang Xiaoxiao''s position within his heart, which was as firm as a rock.


    "Su Nian." Lin Qi sighed in his heart. Although he felt depressed, he could not help but feel a sense of grievance. It seemed that fate could really make a fool out of people.


    "Alliance Head, I just saw Su Nian coming out of there. It''s just that her face was not good and her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had just been crying." At this moment, Qin Xiao spoke and pointed at the area of red fog where Lin Xing had just emerged from.


    Upon hearing these words, Lin Qi''s body shuddered as two rays of golden light shot out from his eyes. This was still an unintentional move by him.


    He also knew that he had lost his composure. He secretly took a deep breath and regained his breath. He softly asked, "And then?"


    "Then she left without saying a word. Even the vice president of the White Tiger World Alliance ignored her and went over to talk to her. It seems that he was very preoccupied with something."


    Qin Xiao answered with a strange tone. After pondering for a moment, she could not help but widen her eyes. Looking at Lin Xing, she asked with a look of surprise, "Alliance head, you couldn''t have bullied Su Nian, right?"


    Lin Qi embarrassedly scratched his head and shook his head: "Don''t speak nonsense. Alliance Head Su''s cultivation is unfathomable and no one in the Heavenly Cauldron is his opponent. How can I bully you?"


    "That''s true." Qin Xiao nodded her head in a somewhat ignorant manner.


    "Where did the sunken fish go?" Lin Xing looked around and asked with a dark expression.


    His face was flushed red with embarrassment. Hearing Lin Xing''s question, he pointed a finger at the sky and replied, "Sunset Fish went to snatch the Divine Origin Realm."


    "Divine Origin?"


    Lin Xing frowned and raised his head to look at the top of the ancient tree that towered into the clouds. He looked around and his gaze finally fixed on a young man.


    The youth had a delicate and pretty appearance, as if he was a harmless looking youth. The arrogance that flowed between his brows made him seem exceptionally tall.


    He was Immersed Fish, the newly appointed vice president of the World Alliance.


    "Alliance master might not know this, but this tree is called the Sky Divine Wood. It has been living since the Divine Ancient Era, and many great dragon heads have planted it. Every three hundred years, it forms a divine origin, and that divine origin is considered a supreme cultivation divine medicine. However, the Sky Nation''s Divine Wood in front of us is very different. Every time the Morning Sea opened, there would be three Divine Sources. " Seven Rolling Knives explained.


    Lin Xing was surprised, and asked in surprise, "You mean that every three months, the Divine Origin is formed?"


    "That''s right. I''ve heard from a few elders that have entered the Heavenly Cauldron Realm before that this piece of wood contains the legendary rules of space and time. That''s why it''s so different from other Heavenly Imperial Gods'' divine wood." Seven Rolling Knives said.

 C223

    "The Edicts of Space and Time?"


    Lin Qi was shocked and surprised. He raised his head and looked at the Divine Wood, which had been alive since the ancient times.


    According to what he knew, when the Soul Cave was converted into a soul space, the rules of space-time were the essential materials. The rules of space-time were priceless, even rarer and more precious than dragon head weapons.


    As for the reason, it was very likely that it was related to the Heavenly Cauldron. After all, the Heavenly Cauldron did not belong to this generation. The tree itself had lived for a very long time, and was inextricably linked to the laws of space and time.


    No one was willing to be one step too slow. All of them used all their strength to kill one person if they could.


    In a short period of time, five Heavenly Hunters were defeated by the attacks and fell to the ground.


    Immersed Fish was the most pitiful of them all. As soon as Lin Xing arrived, Seven Rolling Knife was injured, but he did not join in on the fun. He was alone in the battle against Tian Shou, who had helpers around him.


    Immersed Fish naturally understood this. The rest of them were united by the World Alliance''s Heavenly Shou, but he was alone in his own camp, facing enemies from all sides. His brows were tightly knitted, and his eyes were filled with anxiety and anger.


    However, his willpower was firm. Moreover, with the temptation of the Divine Origin, he did not give up. Under the powerful assault of several Tianshu, he could hold on for a little longer.


    "Something''s not right. The sunken fish is in danger."


    Lin Qi''s attention was on Immersed Fish. Suddenly, his pupils constricted, and as he spoke, he moved. He leapt into the air, stepped on a leaf, and climbed up along the branch.


    He had just noticed that there was a hidden Tian Shou who wanted to kill the sunken fish.


    If Chen Yu was defeated, he would not be a part of the commotion. However, if Chen Yu was in danger, he could not ignore it. Regardless of whether Chen Yu listened to him obediently or not, he was still the World Alliance''s Deputy Chief.


    His body was as light as a swallow. He stepped on the branches or leaves, then leaped lightly. In the blink of an eye, he had reached the halfway mark of the tree.


    At this moment, most of the people on the ground noticed his figure, and a surprised expression appeared on their faces.


    Those fighting for the Divine Origin Realm were all at the Celestial Realm and possessed the ability to fly. As for a hero, not to mention his cultivation level was low, his movements were also restricted. Where did he get the courage to compete with the heavens?


    When they saw the face of Lin Qi, many people were relieved. This was a Heaven Shaking, a person who could behead the Yuan Sky Realm with a sword, so they were not surprised.


    At the same time, Tianshou, who had been hiding in the dark, unleashed a fatal blow towards Sunset Fish. Wind blades shot out from the man''s hands from tricky angles, whistling shrilly as they tore through the air.


    Chen Yu was originally struggling to endure the numerous fierce attacks from the Tianshou. Clearly, he did not notice the wind blades that were shooting towards him. His expression immediately changed drastically as he cried out in shock when he sensed danger.


    At this critical moment, a tyrannical power that was like a primordial beast rushed over from below, completely dispersing the wind blades. The next moment, Lin Xing jumped over and stepped on a leaf.


    "Chief." Immersed in joy, Chen Yu called out to Lin Qi with gratitude.


    With a stern face, Lin Xing nodded his head coldly. His cold eyes swept over Tianshou at his side. The several Heavenly Hunters surrounding the sunken Fish saw that they had awoken and no longer bothered with them. They all continued to rush towards the sky.


    He shifted his gaze until it landed on a young man hiding behind a branch. Just now, it was he who had delivered that fatal blow to the sunken fish. If he hadn''t come at the critical moment and blocked that attack, the sunken fish might have died with regret.


    "Zhao Zhengwen, so it turns out that you wanted to kill me, you piece of trash. Even in the sect, you are not my match, but in the Heavenly Cauldron, you still want to mess with me, and if it wasn''t for the Alliance Master who helped me, I would have let you succeed. Just you wait, when I have snatched the Immortal Source, I will get your dog head." Chen Yu looked at the youth and mocked him with a murderous and disdainful tone.


    Lin Qi was surprised. He had never thought that Chen Yu was not only acquainted with him, but was also from the same sect. There seemed to be no lack of conflicts between them in the past.


    "Sunset Fish, this time we''ll count you out as well."


    Zhao Zhengwen coldly glanced at Immersed Fish and Lin Xing. After throwing down those words, he also flew up into the sky.


    "Alliance Master, I''ve been waiting for you for a long time. Let''s hurry up and go, we can''t let someone snatch the Divine Origin." Chen Yu had a sullen look on his face, but soon after, he looked quite excited.


    Lin Qi coldly snorted and said, "You still want to snatch the Divine Origin Realm away? If you still recognize me as the chief, then immediately come back with me."


    "Alliance Master, I am unwilling. As long as there is a Divine Origin, I can guarantee that in the future, no one will be a match for me in the Heavenly Cauldron." Immersed Fish pleaded.


    "This won''t do. Today, all of the World Alliance''s giants have come to participate in the war, and the scene is in complete chaos. I''m afraid that they don''t even know how they died." Lin Qi cruelly refused.


    "Alliance Master, I''m sorry, wait until I snatch the God Source, you can punish me however you want."


    With that, the sunken fish soared into the sky, soaring into the clouds.


    Lin Qi sighed helplessly. There was nothing he could do but to follow along.

 C224

    Not long after, Lin Xing used his swift and fierce movements to climb to the top of the Sky Nation''s Divine Wood, standing on top of the clouds.


    At this moment, the group of Tianshou had already engaged in a chaotic battle. All sorts of energy and techniques were being used as they filled the sky, causing shocking undulations.


    Their goal was the three Divine Sources growing on top of the trees. While everyone was fighting, they were also moving closer to the three Divine Sources.


    The most shocking thing was that in the intense battle of Tianshou, there was actually someone who took the initiative and opened up a path of blood, seizing a God Origin in their hands. Lin Xing even recognized this person; he was the Purple Blood Alliance''s Chief, Shangguan Xi.


    He was unrivalled in power. In the hands of so many people, he was the first person to obtain the Deity''s Origin.


    He stood there and laughed heartily. A thick disdain was revealed on his face as he looked at the other Sky Shou.


    After stealing one of the Divine Origin, Shangguan Xi no longer had any thoughts of fighting over it anymore. With a smile on his face, he kept the Divine Origin and flew down.


    Soon after, Lin Xing discovered Chen Yu''s figure fighting against a group of Tianshu hunters. He did not immediately go and help, but instead directly rushed towards the Divine Origin Realm.


    Right at this moment, another person seized a Divine Origin, surrounding that person were four Heavenly Hunter Stage freaks. Most of their faces were gloomy as they continued to rush towards the unharvested Divine Origin, and there were a few that also rushed towards that person, whereas Lin Xing was the latter.


    Although that person had stolen a God Origin, and he was surrounded by four Heaven Shou guards, he did not show the slightest bit of relief. He was constantly on guard against the surrounding Heaven Shou.


    Before he was able to store the Divine Origin into the Soul Cave, the ten or so Tianshou''s rushed over and began a chaotic battle with the four Tianshu''s.


    Lin Xing took the opportunity to rush towards that person.


    Shen Yuan was now like a hot potato, whoever got it would be the unlucky one.


    The group of people fought over it. That person was simply unable to defend it at all. Not long after, the Divine Origin Realm changed three masters.


    Lin Xin exerted his strength and took out two Immortal swords. At the same time, he released all of the Feng Li. Before the Divine Origin person noticed, he immediately grabbed the Divine Origin.


    After a few changes, it was finally his turn.


    He did not dare to slack off. Looking up, he saw a dozen or so Tianshou''s powerful attacks aimed at him. He could not help but be astounded, as even a Transcendent cultivator would not be able to fend them off.


    "Sunken Fish, stop them."


    Suddenly, Chen Yu arrived. Lin Xing was overjoyed. He took advantage of this time to immediately store the Divine Origin into the Soul Cave.


    After getting injured, Lin Xing turned around and slashed three times in a flash. Although it was easily resolved by the Heavenly Shou, he still took the opportunity to pull the sunken Fish to him.


    Soon after, he pulled the sunken fish and jumped down.


    The group of Tianshou behind them continued to chase after them.


    They were very fast. In just a few flashes, they had already returned to the ground. When the Seven Rolling Knives and the other World Alliance members saw Lin Xing and Sunset Fish return, they shouted out "Protect their chief!"


    When Tian Shou, who had chased after him, saw this, he roared in indignation. He could only give up and bitterly withdraw.


    "Let''s go back."


    Lin Xing gave the order and led everyone from the World Alliance back.


    Along the way, Lin Xing took out the Divine Origin. The whole thing was sparkling and translucent, about the size of a palm. It looked like a fruit.


    His two fingers turned into swords as he sliced them into two at the center.


    "This divine origin can be cut apart, and the energy contained within will also weaken."


    Lin Qi was surprised, hearing the seven scrolls'' explanation, and then he was relieved.


    Then, he handed half of the divine origin to the seven scrolls.


    The seven scrolls were shocked. Such a good item, even if the Alliance Master did not keep it himself, he still wanted to give half of it to him?


    His face was burning red as he received the bottle, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Then, he looked at Lin Xing with gratitude.


    Chen Yu at the side had an anxious expression. She wanted to speak, but was unable to utter a word for a long time.


    After all, the Divine Origin was stolen by Lin Xing, it had nothing to do with him.


    The next scene caused his mouth to open wide. As he looked at the Divine Origin that Lin Xing had brought over, his face was filled with incredulity.


    "Alliance Chief, this is a cultivation divine medicine! If it is properly refined, it can raise one''s cultivation by an entire realm." He wasn''t the only one who was shocked. The surrounding crowd was also dumbfounded.


    "Take it." Lin Qi did not say anything else.


    In fact, he was feeling very aggrieved, so he asked this question in his heart.


    Can my cultivation be raised again?


    As long as he advanced to the speed of the heavens, he would definitely call upon the voice of the heavens. He wasn''t absolutely confident and definitely wouldn''t act in such a dangerous manner.


    Thus, this Divine Origin was currently useless to him.


    "Thank you, Alliance Head." Sunfish bowed to him, tears streaming down his face.


    At the same time, everyone was admiring the Alliance Master''s judgment. Their hearts were easily subdued by Lin Xing''s action.


    Afterwards, the group of people majestically rushed back to the crowned area.


    After returning, the seven scimitars ordered the hall masters to bring their subordinates Qi Shi back to their respective positions. After Chen Yu obtained half of the Spirit Origin, they also rushed back to their own residences, intending to refine it as soon as possible.


    As for the Seven Rolling Knives, they followed Lin Ming to the main hall of the Alliance Head Palace.

 C225

    "Scram, do you know which sect Su Nian came from?"


    Just as he entered the hall and the two of them sat down, Lin Xing impatiently asked about Su Nian.


    As the White Tiger Alliance Chief, he should know something about Su Nian, but this was already the third time, which was very unusual.


    Instinctively, he guessed that there must be some secret story between the two of them.


    "I am not very clear about the specific location of Alliance Head Su. I once heard from the people of the White Tiger World Alliance that Alliance Head Su is from an ancient immortal doctor family. That is a super power that is even more powerful than the Dragon Head Sect." Seven Rolling Knives said in shock.


    He could not help but shake his head and change the topic. He said to Seven Rolling Blade, "Immediately send someone to pressure Black Tortoise World Alliance. If Black Tortoise Alliance Master does not hand over Mu Yuantian, I will definitely make him pay."


    "Yes, I will arrange it right away." The Seven Rolling Knives nodded in agreement, turned around, and left.


    The door of the hall closed once more. With a wave of his sleeve, Lin Qi extinguished all the lights in the hall. Then, he covered the sparkling gems with a layer of black energy. In an instant, the hall sank into endless darkness.


    Using the Reincarnation Heart Technique, he spent an entire hour before suppressing Su Nian''s face, figure, and charm to the deepest part of his heart.


    Then, he took out the musty yellow book and started to read from the first page.


    Star Shifting Technique.


    Using the star to temper the body, the silver sea to cleanse the meridians, light to establish the heart, darkness to enter the life.


    When he finished reading it, he was shocked. This move seemed to be no ordinary body refining divine art, and it even had the same effects as the Hidden Heaven Technique. It could cultivate the mind, even shake the rules of the world, and change one''s fate.


    The Star Shifting Art was divided into four levels, each of which contained one sentence. However, the only regret was that the yellow book in Lin Ming''s hands only recorded the cultivation method for refining the body through the stars, and did not contain the last three levels.


    However, he was already very satisfied. Moreover, he was excited, and a trace of hope appeared in his eyes.


    After he finished the first layer, he would think of a way to get the last three layers, because it was very likely to be another Martial Saint technique.


    And after cultivating to the first level, his body would become abnormally strong. It wasn''t impossible for him to forcefully resist heavenly tribulation.


    After studying for about four hours, he started his cultivation in the latter half of the night.


    In the pitch-black hall, it seemed as if the entire hall was filled with the radiance of the stars, illuminating the entire hall to an unusually bright state.


    These were the real starlight rays. Lin Qi had used the Art of Shifting Star to draw them down from the Ninth Heaven. The effects of this technique were excellent during nighttime.


    A few bits of starlight appeared to be pulsing on his skin for a long time. Then, it began to seep into his skin. It was as if it was refining some kind of energy as it slowly began to be absorbed.


    After the starlight was properly quoted, it completely fused with his body, as if it was giving him a layer of invisible armor.


    When dawn arrived and the starlight dispersed, the hall returned to its previous tranquility. Only Lin Xing''s body was still glowing with light.


    He took out a celestial sword from his soul hole and held it in his hand. He touched the blade of the sword to his skin and found that there were no sparks. Not even a scratch was left on his skin.


    Of course, he did not use much strength, but even so, it was shocking enough. The Immortal Sword was as hard as mud, and the scales that were broken were as white as paper.


    He stood up and let out two breaths of air before putting away the celestial sword. The starlight disappeared from his body and he walked out of the main hall.


    An hour later, Lin Xing and Chen Yu appeared above the main city of the Black Tortoise World Alliance.


    The sunken fish lifted him into the air, and the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder in midair, looking down at the ancient god city below them.


    The Seven Rolling Knives were injured and had not fully recovered, so Lin Xing did not let him join in on the fun.


    The arrogance on his face had grown even more intense. However, in front of Lin Qi, he did not reveal even the slightest bit of sharpness, but instead stood respectfully behind him.


    "Black Tortoise Alliance Head, listen to my advice. Hand over Mu Yuantian and I will know that he will be leaving the Heavenly Cauldron soon. Is it worth it to serve a deputy chief?" If you insist on doing what you want, I don''t mind making this place a river of blood. "


    Lin Qi stood high up in the air, his voice loud, like a wave rushing towards the main hall of the Alliance.


    "Haha, Alliance Master Lin, you sure dare to boast. Are you asking me if it''s for a single Mu Yuan Heaven Value?" Hehe, then I''ll tell you, it''s worth it! He is my comrade who is bathing in the blood of the Heavenly Cauldron, how can I let him live and die be as he pleases? " The leader''s cold voice came from the main hall. Then, he sneered: "But you came earlier than me. Brother Mu just left our Black Tortoise World Alliance. He will not have anything to do with our Black Tortoise World Alliance in the future."


    "Hmm?" Lin Xing frowned, not believing him at all.


    However, at this moment, a man sprinted over from the distance. As he approached Lin Xing, he clasped his fists and said, "Alliance Head, we just found out that Mu Yuantian left the main city and ran towards that location."

 C226

    This person was someone Jie Lin Xing recognized. He was one of the Palace Masters of the World Alliance and had been sent by the Seven Rolling Knives to attack the commander of the Black Tortoise World Alliance.


    Lin Xing coldly gazed in the direction that the man was pointing at. Killing intent surged from the top of his head into the clouds. He spoke to Sunset Fish, "Sunset Fish, bring me there quickly."


    Chen Yu heard this and immediately summoned his surging divine power. It occupied the ground beneath the two and quickly flew towards that direction.


    "Alliance Head Lin, by the way, I would like to remind you that Mu Yuantian will be leaving the Heavenly Cauldron in four hours." "Haha ¡­" A mocking laughter resounded in the main city of the Black Tortoise Alliance.


    After chasing for about an incense stick of time, Lin Xing and Chen Yu arrived at a place in the wilderness. The place was deathly still, as if it was dead.


    Arriving here, Lin Xing furrowed his brows and told the fish to slow down. The fish also realized that something was wrong and silently slowed down.


    "Be careful, there''s an ambush."


    Lin Qi''s eyelids twitched violently. He had predicted the approach of these murderous auras. He let out a cry of alarm, and in the next moment, four different forces of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm came crushing down on them from different angles.


    His reaction was also very fast. He took out the two Immortal swords and directly performed the third charge, the Godly Sword Technique. He instantly slashed out six times, and his tail swords blocked the attacks of two people of the Celestial Movement Stage.


    At the same time, Sunset Fish also released a large amount of divine power. His right arm rotated, and a divine technique immediately appeared, blocking the other two attacks of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.


    And then, four figures appeared from four different directions.


    Mu Yuantian, Qi Liqun, Zhao Zhengwen, and a youth with a strange face.


    "Zhao Zhengwen, oh, in my eyes, you are just a complete piece of trash. It looks like you will not give up killing me." Immersed Fish had an angry expression on his face. His gaze was like a blade as he shot towards Zhao Zhengwen.


    "Sunset Fish, you escaped by a fluke yesterday, and today, you will undoubtedly die. But don''t worry, when we return to the school, I will write a book for you, so rest in peace." Zhao Zhengwen sneered.


    The sunken fish groaned. Flames spouted out of its eyes, and its battle intent soared. There wasn''t much fear in it''s eyes.


    At this moment, Lin Xing''s gaze fell on Qi Liqun and he asked in surprise, "Qi Liqun, you haven''t left the Heaven Furnace?"


    "It won''t be too late to leave after I kill you." Qi Liqun pursed his lips into a smile.


    "Oh? "I''ll wait." Lin Qi was calm and collected, and then he turned to the stranger and asked, "May I know who this friend is?"


    The stranger''s face was cold and his entire body was covered with a cold aura. He replied in a hoarse voice, "Eastern Gate Tree."


    "So it''s the Deputy Chief of the Purple Blood World Alliance." Seeing you today, you truly live up to your name. " Lin Qi said in a strange tone.


    The East Gate''s trees gave a cold snort. Killing intent filled their eyes, locking onto Lin Qi like poisonous snakes. It was extremely cold and frightening.


    "Lin Xing, your death is near at hand, so don''t spout so much nonsense. Even if you have some last words, we still won''t be able to help you." Mu Yuan Tian smiled sinisterly.


    His vitality had returned to its peak, but his facial features still looked old. Within two or three years, he would not be able to recover. And all of this was thanks to Lin Xing. He hated Lin Qi the most.


    Clang! Clang ¡­


    The two Immortal swords in Lin Qi''s hands suddenly flipped and began to shine with a blinding white light.


    "Sunken Fish, I''ll leave Zhao Zhengwen to you."


    Finished speaking, he took the lead and charged towards Mu Yuan Tian, Qi Licheng, and East Gate''s Jia Shi.


    "You''re courting death."


    Three days later, Shou went into a rage. He did not expect Lin Xing to dare to make the first move even when he was near death''s door. Soon after, he disdainfully sneered, as if he was on the verge of death.


    Not only were their aptitudes extremely heaven-defying, the techniques they had cultivated were also extremely powerful. Once they were displayed, it gave Lin Xing a kind of tingling sensation, as if they could not be stopped at all. Even if they were used as a passive defense, they could still feel an unprecedented suppressive force.


    Immortal Burying Sword Technique.


    He brought out all the lime in his body and used the Immortal Burying Sword Technique at the same time. Using his fastest body to dodge the attacks of the three people, he could barely hold on for a little bit longer.


    Immersed Fish was fighting with Zhao Zhengwen not too far away. Neither of them was willing to give in to the other. They both used all means at their disposal, each having about the same strength as the other.


    Lin Xing wanted Chen Yu to quickly finish off Zhao Zhengwen and then help him out. This thought could only come to nothing, and now he could only rely on himself.


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, a careless move caused injury to his back, which was hit by a palm from Mu Yuantian. As the damage was too high, Lin Xing immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.


    No, he couldn''t continue to fight like this. It wouldn''t be long before he was killed.


    At this moment, he suddenly noticed that a seven-colored halo had appeared above Qi Liqun''s head. It pulled out of the void and followed closely behind him.


    Teleportation!


    Lin Qi naturally recognized the seven-colored halo. It was a sign that he was about to teleport out of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    If nothing unexpected happened, Qi Liqun would be teleported out of the Heaven Furnace in half an incense''s time.


    Lin Qi seemed to have caught onto a lifesaving straw. He stopped fighting with them and turned around to run, using this to stall for time until he managed to send out Qi Liqun, losing a formidable opponent.


    His feet stomped on the ground as he ran. His speed was so fast that it left others speechless.


    Mu Yuantian and the other two raised their eyebrows and chased after him with sabers in their hands.

 C227

    The three of them walked on air while Lin Xing could only run on the ground. However, his speed was not slow at all. The three of them chased after him closely, but were unable to get close to him.


    Fierce attacks continuously flew out from the three people''s hands. Lin Xing resisted with his wind lemons, and after running for a long time, he was already heavily wounded.


    Especially that palm print from before. Its might was frightening, and today, there were still traces of it left behind. Even his clothes were turned into black ash.


    On the other hand, the trio looked relaxed. Even if Qi Liqun were to be teleported away, with Lin Xing''s current condition, any ordinary Tianshu would be able to kill him with ease.


    "It''s done."


    After calculating the time, Qi Liqun would leave in a moment. Lin Xing suddenly turned around and waved his celestial sword, slashing out six sharp sword qi.


    He didn''t plan to run anymore, so he started to counterattack.


    At this moment, the seven-colored ring of light had already spread all the way to his ankles. It was only a few centimeters away from devouring him. Once he was devoured, he would be teleported out of the Heaven Furnace.


    The three of them were stunned as they watched Lin Qi counterattack. They had not expected that Mu Yuantian would be blown away by the sword qi due to being caught off guard.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Qi threw all his attention towards the East Gate''s Gourmet Tree, the Death God Power Tempest and other forces.


    The East Gate Gatling Tree used its divine power to resist Feng Li, but the death divine power was still attached to Feng Li''s divine power, and when the divine power was retrieved, the death divine power also entered his body.


    He immediately became overwhelmed with shock as he activated his divine force to suppress it.


    Suddenly, Qi Liqun rushed over and released a black light that accurately hit Lin Qi''s body. Lin Qi could not help but groan as he spat out a mouthful of blood. He could feel the intense pain coming from within his body.


    However, this attack was also Qi Liqun''s last attack within the Heavenly Cauldron. Just as Lin Xing was about to stand up with difficulty, he saw his body disappear into thin air, leaving behind only a small amount of rainbow-colored light as he was sent out of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Following that, Mu Yuantian and the Eastern Gate''s tree had joined hands to attack. With both his divine force and nether energy closing in on Lin Qi, he was unable to evade.


    His expression darkened as he activated his illusions and appeared before them, his pupils shining into their eyes.


    Mu Yuantian had a deep understanding of these pupils, and suddenly let out a scream. He was scared to the bone. Although he was prepared, he couldn''t stop it. His mind went blank.


    There was no need to say anything else about the East Gate Gyokuro. Her face turned pale and her eyes glazed over.


    Lin Qi took this opportunity to attack with his sword. Two sword lights fell from the sky.


    Mu Yuantian was startled and quickly turned around to escape, but Eastern Gate''s Jiaju Tree did not have that much luck. It was cut down by Lin Xing''s sword, causing it to fall to the ground.


    At this moment, a golden halo of light appeared above Lin Qi''s head, enveloping his entire body. It was as if his entire body was bathed in the golden light.


    After Mu Yuantian and East Gate''s Jia Mu saw this, they thought for a while, and then their faces completely changed.


    "Grand!" They cried out in alarm and disbelief.


    The legend of the Grand Viscount that hadn''t appeared in the Heavenly Cauldron for 500 years had actually been obtained by Lin Xing. This was too shocking. This was something that could shake the entire world.


    In fact, many people had a heaven-defying battle power like Lin Qi''s. For example, Xiao Lin, fighting alone against the Three Heavens Sect for three days was not a problem. However, those were all at the Celestial Force. As for Lin Xing, he was only at the Heaven Smiting Stage. To be able to match up to them in terms of strength, he was indeed very heaven-defying.


    After Lin Xing obtained the title of Grand Duke, the Heavenly Cauldron seemed to bestow upon him a mysterious power. In an instant, both his swords rose up, his body leaping into the air before diving down. His speed reached an extreme, ten times faster than lightning.


    When that sword fell, Mu Yuantian was still in shock. Obviously, he hadn''t reacted to it yet, as he only knew that a fatal crisis had arrived.


    Puff ¡­


    Lin Xing stabbed his sword into the man''s head, penetrating half a meter. As the blood splattered, Mu Yuantian raised his face to look at him in despair. His face was full of hatred, and then he fell to the ground dead, his life fading away.


    Then, Lin Qi drew his sword and used the same move to attack the East Gate''s tree.


    Eastgate Jia Mu''s face turned pale. His heart was filled with despair. His legs were no longer listening to him. Mu Yuantian''s death was right in front of him.


    Suddenly, a powerful Heavenly Source swept out from the main city of the Black Tortoise World Alliance, blasting Lin Xing''s body away, causing him to heavily injure and fall to the ground, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.


    "Black Tortoise Alliance Head, Shi Feiyu."


    Lin Qi inserted the Immortal Sword into the ground and watched as the East Gate Martial Arts School''s back turned to flee. He couldn''t help but shout out towards the direction of the Black Tortoise Alliance''s main city.


    At this moment, Sunfish arrived in front of him. His body was also bathed in blood. It was likely that he had just experienced a bitter battle.


    "How is it?" Lin Xing asked.


    "I didn''t kill him. Both his arms were cut off by me." Immersed Fish said as he spread out his hands.


    "Alright, bring me back."


    The sunken fish released its divine power, carrying Lin Xing high into the air.


    Although he hated Shi Feiyu for attacking him, he was heavily injured. If he wanted to seek revenge, he would undoubtedly be courting death. Thus, he could only return to the World Alliance to recuperate from his injuries first.


    Actually, Shi Feiyu could have killed the two of them now. As for why he didn''t do that, it was for the sake of thinking about it in the future.


    If he really killed Shi Feiyu, after he left the Heavenly Cauldron, the Black Tortoise World Alliance would definitely be met with the frenzied retaliation of the World Alliance, which was why they were wary of him.


    Shifei Yu was not so selfish as to ignore the lives of the world''s most talented warriors and heroes.


    Ten days later, in the main city hall, Seven Rolling Knives stood respectfully to one side, reporting something to Lin Xing.


    Ten days had passed, and Lin Xing''s injuries had completely healed. He listened attentively to the Seven Rolling Knives and sighed with emotion from time to time.


    Ever since he had obtained the title of Grand Duke, this news had swept through the entire Heavenly Cauldron, causing everyone to be emotionally moved.


    Lin Xing was praised as the number one person in the Heavenly Cauldron for the past 500 years.


    During these ten days, many of his old friends had left.


    Su Nian, Shangguan Xi, Lu Qi, Wordless, Shi Feiyu ¡­


    This was especially so for Su Nian. Upon hearing the news that she had left the Heavenly Cauldron, Lin Xing felt as if his heart had been pierced by needles.


    "Alliance Head, although Shi Feiyu has left, the Black Tortoise World Alliance is still here. Should we send someone to massacre the two halls?" Seven Rolling Knives said fiercely and made a throat slitting motion.


    "No need. Cultivation is not easy, and I do not want to kill the innocent. Besides, that was exactly what Shi Feiyu thought of at that time, so he decided to hold back. Then, let''s fulfill his wish." Lin Xing shook his head.


    "Yes."


    The supreme experts within the Heavenly Cauldron departed one after another, proving that Lin Xing was invincible within it.


    The following month was an era that solely belonged to the World Alliance. It was also the era where the World Alliance would be the most glorious for the past 500 years. As for the other World Alliance members, they all consciously lowered their heads.


    Some of the alliance masters even said that Lin Xing could enter and leave their forbidden grounds as he wished.


    In the last month, Lin Xing had visited many forbidden lands and plundered many treasures. Most of them had been distributed to the World Alliance members, but only a few remained.


    When he was free, he would hide in the great hall and cultivate the Star Shifting Technique. Now, he felt as if his body had undergone a qualitative change, as if he had been reborn and was emitting light everywhere.


    During this period of time, many peerless geniuses had emerged from the Heavenly Cauldron. One of them was a woman named Leng Ruxin, and she was one of the best.


    Leng Jianxin was also a sword immortal. After entering the Heavenly Cauldron for three days, he had defeated a great genius. Ten days later, he would have a battle with Yin Qiubai and the match would end in a draw.


    Such a monstrous genius had shocked everyone else, and his journey was even more wonderful than Lin Xing''s.


    Lin Qi once had the privilege of glancing at this woman from afar. She was a skinny, cold and proud woman, and her entire person was like an iceberg, making people unable to approach her.


    Afterwards, Seven Rolling Blade, Immersed Fish, Qin Xiao, and the others left one after the other. At the same time, five members of the World Alliance appeared. Their strength had reached an unprecedented level.


    "Xiao Ri, I have fulfilled my promise." Lin Qi sighed.


    On this day, Lin Ming woke up at the Qiongqi Mountain, which was the resting place and birthplace of the beast tide. However, after walking for a long time, he did not see any beast tide. It was dead silent.


    He suddenly saw a wretched figure that looked like an old Yu Qi, but he couldn''t believe it.


    "This old fellow has quite a few secrets." Lin Qi recalled for a moment and confirmed that the person who spoke was Old Yu Qi.


    After all, even if that old fart was reduced to ashes, he would still be able to recognize him.


    He had a secret on him, a secret that allowed him to enter and exit the Heavenly Cauldron at will.


    A few days later, Lin Xing went back to the forbidden area to search for Old Yu Qi, but he couldn''t find him.


    On the last day, the outskirts of the Champion City was filled with people. Most of the people in the Heavenly Cauldron had already arrived. They wanted to witness the glory of the number one figure in the past 500 years.


    This was because today was the day that Lin Xing would be teleported out of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Lin Qi did not appear for a long time. His real body had appeared on a piece of land far away from the Champion City of Alliance.


    He didn''t like to make a big fuss, so it was better for him to leave quietly.


    As the rainbow colored halo descended, this unparalleled genius that once dominated the Heaven Cauldron left.


    At the same time, in the Warring Heaven Alliance area, a young man with a stern expression was wandering in the wilderness.


    A man came running from afar and stopped in front of the young man. He smiled at the young man and said, "Welcome to the World Conqueror Alliance. Please state your name."


    "Gu Yuan." The young man''s expression was somewhat dull as he replied with two words.

 C228

    "Wah ¡­" Pain! "Pain!"


    When Lin Qi opened his eyes again, he felt an intense pain rushing into his body, his soul, and his five visceras.


    Due to the intense pain, his expression twisted slightly, revealing a ferocious look. His eyes were bloodshot, and the skin all over his body seemed to have split open.


    What was even more terrifying was the pain that came from the depths of his soul. He felt as if he had fallen into purgatory.


    "Waa, you''re finally awake. It seems like I didn''t take care of you for nothing during this period of time. I finally saved you and brought you back."


    A crisp and excited young girl''s voice entered his ears. He turned his neck with much difficulty and turned his face to look at the owner of the voice.


    However, he saw that the young girl who had spoken was about the same age as him. She had a smile on her face, red lips, white teeth, and a rosy face. Seeing that he had woken up, she excitedly shouted.


    "You are?" Lin Qi asked weakly, at a loss.


    "Oh, I''m Cheng Chen, your savior. "You''ve already been in a coma for a month. If you don''t wake up now, I''ll really throw you out of the car and let you fend for yourself." Cheng Chen smiled mischievously as she softly murmured.


    "One month!"


    Lin Qi felt a splitting headache coming on and his mind went blank. The memories he had after leaving the Heavenly Cauldron were almost completely gone.


    He could vaguely remember that when he was sent out of this world, he was unlucky enough to encounter chaotic space that completely submerged him. As for what happened after that, he couldn''t remember anything at all.


    When he woke up and realized that he had been in a coma for a month, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.


    He tried to mobilize the power in his body, but found that it was impossible to draw it out. His injuries were too severe, and his entire body was paralyzed. He had no energy to support him in other things.


    "I want to know where this is?"


    Lin Qi opened his mouth with great difficulty. His breath was like strands of silk, and his mind was broken. If it weren''t for that firm willpower that supported him, he might have fallen asleep again at any moment.


    Cheng Chen tapped on her chin with her right index finger and thought for a while. After a while, she said, "As for where this is, I''m actually not too sure either. Give me a big name. This is Heaven''s End Earth."


    As she spoke, Cheng Chen''s expression was bitter and her eyes were filled with deep anxiety. These changes in her expression naturally did not escape Lin Xing''s eyes.


    Thinking about it, there was probably something that was difficult for her to say.


    As Lin Ming heard the name Heaven''s End Great Land, a trace of joy finally emerged in his heart. Naturally, he knew about this Holy Land of the Divine Mountain.


    The Heaven''s End Earth was the sacred land that the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Giant Spirit Sect, and the other sects viewed as their sacred ground.


    He was lucky to be able to make it here. Although it was still very far from the Sky Sect, at least he still knew the coordinates. It wouldn''t be difficult to return.


    "Are you really not from the Heaven''s End Great Land?" Cheng Chen narrowed her phoenix eyes and asked tentatively.


    The Heaven''s End was vast and boundless, with a vast area. In fact, she had never seen anyone other than Tian Jue.


    "I''m from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery." Lin Xing replied.


    Cheng Chen thought for a moment and said with her eyes wide open, "Oh? I have heard of this sect before, but it is indeed quite far from our Heaven''s End Great Land. For you to be able to reach this place, it truly is not easy. "


    "That''s right. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been injured so seriously and almost lost his life." Lin Xing had a troubled expression on his face.


    Then, he curiously asked, "In the eyes of outsiders, the Heaven''s Jue Land is a holy land in the mountain. The sect specially sent me here to gather information from some big immortal sects, but I''m new here so I''m unfamiliar with this place. Could Miss Cheng introduce it to me?"


    "Of course you can, but your injuries are too serious. Let''s wait for you to recover first." Cheng Chen was excited at first, but then she could not bear to say it.


    Fortunately, Lin Qi had just discovered that although the damage to his soul was extremely severe, he could still open the soul hole if he wanted to. As long as he opened the soul hole, he could rely on the treasures that he had found in the Sky Cauldron to heal his injuries.


    His soul split open, and a crystal clear pill flew out, landing on Lin Qi''s chest.


    "Feed it to me."


    The pill was crystal clear and it glowed with a golden light, giving off a strong medicinal fragrance. Cheng Chen was astounded when she saw the pill.


    Upon hearing Lin Qi''s words, she immediately followed his instructions. Two slender fingers clamped onto the pill and then stuffed it into his mouth.


    As the pill dissolved in his mouth, it turned into a stream of warmth that flowed through his blood. The gentle medicinal properties of the pill caused Lin Xing to feel as if he had revived from the dead.


    Then, he pressed his palms onto the floor and tried to get up. However, Cheng Chen quickly came up to help him up, helping him sit up.


    "The effects of this pill is so powerful that you can barely move it in an instant. Could it be that this is your Gate of Heavenly Mystery''s immortal medicine?" Cheng Chen asked in surprise.


    Lin Xing replied, "Yes, the sect has sent me alone to travel through Heaven''s End. They will definitely give me some life-saving items."


    Cheng Chen nodded in agreement. Then, she remembered Lin Xing''s question from before. She took out a bamboo block from her soul cave and handed it over to him.


    "This is?" Lin Qi took the bamboo scroll and looked at the engravings on it. He was puzzled.


    "This is our Heaven''s End Sect''s ranking board. Once you understand these things, you will also know the structure of this place, the divisions between the various large sects, and other forces. It will be convenient for you to travel in the future."

 C229

    Lin Qi held the bamboo scroll in front of him and his eyes swiveled. As his gaze gradually shifted downwards, his expression slowly became solemn.


    "The Heaven''s Jue Land is vast and boundless. There are countless powers and sects, but only twenty-four sects can stand out from them. These twenty-four sects are ranked by the strong and weak. These are the twenty-four great sects'' rankings of the Heaven''s Jue Land." Cheng Chen explained on the side.


    "The Heavy Sect is actually only ranked eighteenth?"


    Lin Qi looked from top to bottom. His expression was relatively calm. When he saw the name and the serial number of the Heavy Sect, his expression immediately changed. He found it hard to believe.


    The Heavy Sect, it was unknown how many times stronger than the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, it was actually ranked at the eighteenth place. It was really hard to imagine how powerful the sects at the top ranks would be.


    He suspected, even if it was the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, the Yin Master School, or the Sky Sect ¡­ Even if all the sects combined, they might not be able to make it into the ranking board.


    "Heavy Sect? "Not bad, I have a cousin who is cultivating in a major sect. In these ten years, eight Heavenly Cauldron freaks have appeared in that sect, which is considered one of the more monstrous sects among the 24 great sects." Cheng Chen pursed her lips.


    Lin Qi suppressed the shock in his heart as he carefully analyzed Cheng Chen''s words. The number of Heavenly Cauldron Monsters was also a standard that couldn''t be ignored by these 24 great sects.


    This was because only when there were more people in the younger generation would there be a chance for them to become powerful in the future.


    After he finished playing down the names of the 24 great sects, Lin Xing''s eyes once again shifted to the top three sects.


    On the door of the first three places, there were two eye-catching words carved on the back: "Dragon Head".


    Without a doubt, these three sects were the ones with the dragon heads. They were the true rulers of this land.


    "Right, which sect did Miss Cheng come from?" Lin Xing suddenly asked with a smile.


    "Ai, don''t mention it. Being able to handle my own matters is already tiring enough for me. I don''t even have the mood to enter the sect to cultivate." Cheng Chen smiled wryly.


    Suddenly, at this moment, an old woman pushed aside the curtain of the carriage and walked in. In her hand was a bowl of green liquid.


    The curtains were parted to reveal seven or eight guards with sabers on their backs standing outside. All of them had dark expressions on their faces, especially when they looked at the old woman. Their eyes were filled with an undisguised killing intent.


    When Cheng Chen saw the old woman walk in, her face immediately turned purple, and she looked at her with eyes full of fear.


    Lin Qi took in the expressions of these people. He could not help but feel a little surprised. He raised his head and carefully observed the old woman''s face.


    This old woman''s skin was wrinkled, and her face was dry. She was old, with a head of unruly white hair that revealed two terrifying white eyes from behind. As Lin Xing looked at her, he felt his scalp tingle.


    What shocked him the most was that he was actually unable to see through the old woman''s cultivation. Her terrifying eyes glanced at him, bringing him a fatal danger.


    "Little Lord, it''s time to drink the medicine." A hoarse voice came from the old woman''s throat as she brought the bowl of green leaf liquid in front of Cheng Chen.


    Cheng Chen took a deep breath, looking flustered and indignant, his little heart bursting out, he shouted: "Enough, I''m not sick, what exactly do you want? If you want to kill me, I''ll cut you up. I won''t drink any more of your poison. "


    "Little Lord, I won''t do anything to you. I just want you to help me out with a small matter. It''s better if you drink the medicine at ease. Only then will I be at ease." The old woman brought the bowl in her hand to Cheng Chen and said somewhat helplessly.


    Cheng Chen coldly shouted, "Old witch, I know that you have ill intentions. As for what help you want me to help you with, just say it directly. I won''t drink this medicine, or else you can kill me."


    Cheng Chen puffed out her chest, her head was raised high, and her bones were very hard.


    "Little master, this subordinate is useless. I cannot protect little master properly, and fall into the hands of the wicked."


    When the group of guards outside saw this scene, they felt a chill run down their spines. All of them knelt down as they cried out in grief and indignation. They really couldn''t bear to see Cheng Chen suffer such a great humiliation.


    The old woman slightly retracted her right arm that was holding the bowl, and sneered: "Little Lord, follow me to the Dai family to celebrate that old thing''s birthday. After everything is done, not only will I cure your poison, I will also give you a big gift.


    "Dai Family? Which Dai Family?" Cheng Chen was stunned.


    "Which other Dai family is there? How many noble clans with the surname Dai in Tian Jue?" The old witch trembled, her white eyes filled with hostility.


    Cheng Chen''s expression changed. She sneered, "Then I can''t help you. The Dai family has no connection to my Cheng family. I don''t even have an invitation. How can I congratulate you on your birthday?"


    "Young master, don''t lie to me. You are talking too much in front of me, what use do you think it will work? "Who doesn''t know that your Cheng family has eight hundred thousand li of land, while the Dai family has only three hundred thousand Li. With your status, if that old thing wants to celebrate his life, even if he doesn''t have an invitation, he would have to welcome you personally. As long as you bring me into the Dai family, I will not make things difficult for you again." The old witch''s tone was sinister as she spoke.

 C230

    Cheng Chen was silent, as though she was struggling in her heart. Her helpless expression and delicate appearance made even her soul tremble under the old witch''s tyrannical power.


    Lin Qi saw this and felt pain in his heart. He hated the fact that he was heavily injured. Otherwise, with his battle prowess, he would have been able to fight against the old witch.


    Suddenly, the old witch lost her patience and her left hand shot out. At the same time, she opened up her five black and slender nails and inhaled. A guard kneeling outside the carriage immediately turned pale with fright.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Streams of blood flowed out from the guard''s face. They hung in mid-air before rushing straight towards the old witch. The guard was in so much pain that he was on the verge of death, letting out miserable shrieks that he had heard before.


    "Young Lord, my patience is limited. Don''t force me to kill again." The old witch''s voice was filled with hostility.


    "Stop, I''ll drink." Cheng Chen bellowed. She was on the verge of tears from the old witch''s torture. Her eyes were red and swollen.


    "That''s right." The old witch cackled twice before withdrawing her left hand and withdrawing her suction force. The guard had lost too much blood and immediately lost consciousness.


    Cheng Chen took the bowl filled with the green liquid. She looked as if she was struggling, but just as she was about to bite her lips and drink, a young man''s voice rang out.


    "Hold on."


    Old Yu Qi cast a cold glance at Lin Qi, which was filled with threat.


    "I''ll help her drink." Lin Xing calmly said.


    "That won''t do. This is my problem and it has nothing to do with you. Wait for your injuries to heal, then quickly leave." Cheng Chen firmly refused and revealed an expression of feigned anger.


    The old witch also disdainfully smiled, not having the slightest bit of interest in Lin Qi.


    Lin Xing ignored Cheng Chen and used all of his strength to snatch the bowl in Cheng Chen''s hand, then gulped it down in one gulp.


    His actions caused Cheng Chen and the old witch to be stunned.


    "Brat, you have balls, but what you drink doesn''t count. I will boil another bowl for you later." The old witch laughed sinisterly.


    Lin Qi stared at her, his eyes calm. "How much do you want? I''ll drink."


    "Hehe, good boy. You just woke up and you''re already in such a hurry to die?" The old witch said.


    "It''s worth it." Lin Qi did not say much, only spitting out one word.


    Cheng Chen was moved, but she could not bear to do so. She bit her lips.


    When the old witch saw Lin Qi''s resolute expression and heard that word, her expression became complicated, but not long after, it turned into one of resentment.


    Lin Xing''s actions seemed to have touched her scar.


    "Alright, I promise you. From now on, I''ll give you all these pills to drink."


    After saying that, the old witch turned around and walked out of the carriage, closing the curtain. She then gave the order for the carriage to move, and it began to move again.


    "Thank you." Cheng Chen looked at Lin Qi and said sincerely.


    Lin Qi shook his head, smiled and said, "You are my savior. Let alone drinking the medicine for you, even if it''s Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild, I wouldn''t mind taking the challenge."


    "You''re just like my brother. If there''s a chance, I''ll introduce him to you." Cheng Chen said.


    "Sure." Lin Qi replied with a smile.


    Ever since I was young, every single person has been cold-blooded and merciless. Even when I was with my father, I couldn''t even talk twice a year, and only my brother doted on me the most, and he took great care of me ever since I was young. In this world, only my brother is willing to help me, and I''m very happy today because I''ve met a second person who''s willing to do this for me. Cheng Chen''s face was filled with bitterness and sadness. Finally, her gaze landed on Lin Xing, and it turned into a happy one.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing was deeply moved. Wasn''t his experience the same as well?


    But no matter what he said, he was still a man, and Cheng Chen was only a weak girl. No matter how strong she was, her heart was always that fragile, and she longed for someone else''s care.


    "Miss Cheng, if you don''t mind, please help me be your other brother." Lin Xing had a sincere expression on his face.


    "Sure." Cheng Chen was so happy that she could dance with joy.


    At this moment, Lin Xing asked again, "Oh right, what was the matter with the soldiers that the old witch was talking about just now?"


    "We soldiers are only a small clan that resides under the 24 great sects in the land of Heaven''s End. "Although the Heaven''s Jue earth is vast and boundless, every inch of land is extremely precious. For instance, our Cheng family has 800,000 miles of land, so we are called the noble king''s soldier tribe. If we have over a million miles of land, we will be called the emperor''s soldier clan."


    Cheng Chen''s tone paused for a moment, and then she continued, "Also, the Dai Family that the old witch mentioned just now only has a territory of 300,000 li, and their strength is obviously much weaker than mine, which is why she was so interested in me. Like she said just now, with my status, if I were to offer my birthday to the Dai Family''s Patriarch, he would have to personally go out to welcome me."


    "So that''s how it is."


    Listening to Cheng Chen''s introduction, Lin Xing finally had a rough understanding of the Heaven''s End Earth''s layout.


    Next, he asked about the types of cultivation that sects cultivated, as well as other trivial matters.


    The two of them chatted until it was dark before they shut their mouths.


    Nightfall. Cheng Chen fell asleep. Lin Xing closed his eyes and inspected the bowl of green liquid he had drunk earlier.

 C231

    After he drank the bowl of green liquid, it stuck to his stomach like maggots sticking to his intestines. Moreover, it was slowly wiggling like a living creature.


    Suddenly, after sensing the green liquid, a strand of God Power of Death came over. With just a slight touch, more than half of the green liquid was engulfed by the God Power of Death and immediately evaporated.


    This was not Lin Xin purposely activating the Death God power, but rather the green liquid was clearly a living thing. The Death God power sensed the presence of an external object and automatically protected its master, extinguishing its life force.


    Lin Qi used all of his strength to quickly suppress the Death God Force.


    He could tell that the green liquid would not harm him at the moment, and it would not harm him even if it were stored in his body. If he were to be completely strangled by the Death God power, the old witch might notice and make things difficult for him.


    Next, he tossed the green liquid to the back of his mind and took advantage of Cheng Chen''s sleeping time to retrieve a bunch of elixirs from the soul hole. He then began to recuperate his body, hoping to heal his injuries as soon as possible.


    However, his injuries were too severe. Not only his physical body, but his soul had also suffered from wounds that were difficult to recover from. For a short period of time, he shouldn''t even think about returning to his peak condition.


    Even if one healed their physical body, they could only use sword skills in battle. As for other techniques, they simply could not be used without the control of soul force.


    If not for the old witch, he might not have been in a rush, but now that someone had placed a knife against his neck, he had to return to his peak state as soon as possible.


    Luckily, inside his soul cave, there were countless spirit pills and herbs. Otherwise, if this kind of injury was delayed, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    Cheng Chen slept soundly and was not affected in the slightest. Early the next morning, Cheng Chen opened her eyes and rubbed her eyes. When she looked up, she was shocked to see that Lin Xin had been staring at her the entire time.


    "You haven''t slept all night?" Cheng Chen exclaimed.


    Lin Qi smiled but did not say anything. He raised his hand to point at his thigh, a helpless look on his face.


    "Ah ¡­" "My apologies, my apologies for asking a wounded person like you to be my pillow."


    The clothes on Lin Xing''s thigh were deeply sunken in. The outline of his face was faintly discernible. Cheng Chen immediately understood. Her face was filled with guilt and embarrassment.


    "It''s fine, I want to go for a walk." Lin Qi chuckled. He didn''t seem to mind at all.


    "You ¡­"


    Cheng Chen was about to stop him when he saw Lin Xing slowly stand up. His mouth suddenly gaped open.


    Yesterday, he was still on the verge of death, but today, he was able to walk. Cheng Chen had an expression of disbelief.


    In fact, after last night''s nourishment, his body could barely move, so walking was not a problem.


    Lin Qi lifted the curtain of the carriage and his eyes peeked out. He saw two rows of guards with sabers walking in front of him. The old witch stood around the carriage, her feet three inches off the ground. She was walking in the air.


    The old witch was the first to notice Lin Qi stepping out of the carriage. She glanced at him with a strange glint in her eyes. However, she did not question him and continued to maintain a nonchalant attitude towards him.


    With Lin Qi''s current physical strength, he could jump off the carriage, walk around and stretch his limbs, but he did not choose to do so. Instead, he sat cross-legged outside the carriage and observed his surroundings like a young master who came to play.


    This kind of life continued all the way until the sixth day.


    Night had fallen, and the moon was bright and the stars were thin.


    That night, the old witch was uncharacteristically gentle. She had actually ordered Cheng Chen and her saber-armed guards to stop and rest for the night before departing tomorrow morning.


    The reason for this was that he was exhausted from the days of constant travel, so he should have stopped to rest.


    However, no one was grateful to her. It was impossible for her to be so kind as to guess what she was up to.


    In fact, the group of guards with sabers had the lowest cultivations among them. Although they had been travelling for days, they didn''t feel the slightest tiredness when they walked at such a speed.


    Cheng Chen also walked down from the carriage. She ordered people to light up two bonfires on the ground, and sat down with Lin Xing not far away from the bonfire.


    At this moment, the old witch came back with another bowl of green liquid. She walked up to Lin Qi and looked at him with her ghastly white eyes.


    "Time to drink the medicine."


    Lin Qi accepted it indifferently. Under the gaze of the old witch, he drank it all in one gulp without even frowning.


    Cheng Chen couldn''t bear it any longer. She sat beside Lin Xing with a look of guilt and sorrow on her face.


    For the past six days, after drinking three bowls of this green liquid every day, Lin Xing had developed a deep admiration for the old witch, so why would he not feel tired?


    He had once secretly observed the old witch brewing medicine, but the old witch''s methods were too strange. He took out a large pile of items from his soul hole and placed it in a bowl. Following that, the clear water instantly turned green and bubbled.


    The old witch cast a sidelong glance at Lin Qi, seeing that he had finished drinking the entire bowl of green liquid, she then returned to the bowl and turned to leave.


    "Old witch, stop." Cheng Chen shouted.


    Hearing this, the old witch turned around and looked at her, asking, "What orders does little master have?"


    Cheng Chen impatiently said, "You asked me to come with you to celebrate the Dai Family''s Patriarch''s birthday. I''ve already promised you, but why did you order a daily journey of 50 miles per day? With such a slow speed, how many years would it take for us to reach the Dai Family''s territory?"

 C232

    "Hehe, little lord, you''re right. But don''t worry, I have calculated the time. When we reach the Dai Family''s territory, it will be the day of that old thing''s sacrifice." The old witch had a faint smile on her face as she finished her last sentence. Immediately, a thick malevolent aura surrounded her body.


    "Hmph."


    Cheng Chen angrily turned her head to the side. She only wanted to break away from the old witch as soon as possible. Seeing her made her feel disgusted. She had had enough of this kind of situation.


    "Since young master is not satisfied, we will speed up tomorrow."


    With that, the old witch smiled sinisterly. Her cold gaze stopped on Lin Qi and Cheng Chen for a moment before she turned around and walked off into the distance.


    "Big brother Lin Xing, now that we are under the control of the old witch, she is ruthless and merciless. Once we arrive at the Dai Family, we no longer have any value to her, there is no guarantee that she will be able to do anything."


    Cheng Chen moved her delicate body closer to Lin Qi, looking at the old witch in the distance as she spoke in a hushed tone.


    Lin Qi also raised his head slightly and narrowed his eyes. He looked at the old witch and replied, "An Xin, leave everything to me."


    Hearing that, Cheng Chen frowned and couldn''t help but to re-evaluate this new little brother of hers.


    In fact, up till now, Lin Xing had been very calm and collected, as if nothing could shock him.


    Hearing these words again, Cheng Chen could not help but feel greatly encouraged. She also smiled and nodded her head. She had an inexplicable sense of confidence in Lin Xing.


    "By the way, Little Sister Cheng Chen, according to what you said, you have a high position in the Cheng family. Now that you''re missing, the Cheng family will definitely send out experts to find you. Why don''t you leave a trail for them?" Lin Xing looked at her.


    Cheng Chen shook her head in distress, "I won''t hide this from Big Brother Lin Xing. I''ve tried this method before, but that old witch has always been hiding in our Cheng family as an ordinary slave, so she knows all about the Cheng family''s hidden secrets. It won''t work."


    "Alright, I''ll keep it for you."


    Lin Qi picked up a tree branch and carved a character of "Cheng" on the ground. In the next moment, it disappeared, and the ground returned to normal.


    "Can this work?" Cheng Chen looked at the old witch in the distance and asked her cautiously.


    "Don''t worry, she won''t find out," Lin Qi said with a smile.


    He had used a celestial spell to carve out the character ''Cheng''. With the immortal''s various methods of escape, no matter how strong the old witch was, she might not be able to find it.


    In these six days, Lin Xin had been continuously healing his wounds. Now that he had recovered about fifty to sixty percent, he had some skill. If he was able to recover to his peak state now, at such a long distance, he would have the confidence to bring Cheng Chen along and make sure that the old witch would not be able to catch up.


    As the moon rose, another night quietly went by.


    At dawn, the eastern horizon was as red as blood. Floating in the sky was a large cloud of fire. The bright sunlight was blocked, and it still hadn''t completely shone onto the vast earth.


    In the vast wilderness, it was completely silent. There were no sounds or chirps.


    The old witch ordered everyone to hurry on, and just as she had said yesterday, she purposely sped up.


    Lin Xing supported Cheng Chen into the carriage, while he chose to walk on the ground just like those guards with sabers. He stepped on the fallen leaves, one step at a time.


    Three days passed in the blink of an eye.


    On this day, under the old witch''s lead, they finally stepped into the Dai Family''s territory.


    "Show the flag!" The old witch ordered.


    A guard with a saber did as he was told. He took out a five-meter-long banner from his soul hole and held it in his hand. Even from afar, one could see the word "Cheng" drawn on it.


    As they arrived, more and more pedestrians began to appear. Once the Cheng Family''s banner was revealed, it naturally attracted the attention of most passersby.


    The Cheng family was a noble family with eight hundred thousand li of territory. They were rather famous in the Heaven''s End. When many people saw the flag, they were confused as to why the Cheng family had come to greet them at the same time.


    When they found out that the person in the carriage was Cheng Chen, they immediately started to show their respect. They were all here to pay their respects to the Dai Family''s Patriarch. In order to flatter Cheng Chen, they even took out the birthday presents they prepared beforehand.


    How could the old witch have the time to care about these annoying flies? The word "scram" caused the hearts of everyone to break down.


    "Celestial Realm!"


    Lin Xing then smiled at the old witch and said, "You are too ignorant, even your age is unknown."


    "Hmm? "You''re courting death!"


    The old witch flew into a rage. With a thought, the green liquid that Lin Qi drank from his body began to stir crazily, as if ten thousand ants were gnawing at his internal organs.


    Lin Qi''s expression was miserable as he screamed out in pain.


    "Stop it, old witch. If you dare kill him, I''ll immediately commit suicide for you to see." Cheng Chen heard the commotion and immediately walked out of the carriage, pointing at the old witch and shouting.


    The old witch did not budge, but sneered coldly as she stared at Lin Qi, her killing intent exuding endlessly.

 C233

    "Just as I guessed, you must have a blood feud with the Dai Family Clan Patriarch and you only wanted to kill him. Isn''t that letting him off too easily? Why not torture his spirit as well and make him suffer a fate worse than death? "


    Lin Qi screamed in pain as his body rolled on the ground. At the same time, he slowed down his speech and spoke to the old witch in an aggrieved tone.


    "Oh?" You might as well tell me. " The moment the old witch became interested, the green liquid calmed down once again.


    Lin Qi heaved a sigh of relief as he was helped up by a guard with a saber. His forehead was covered with cold sweat and his eyes were filled with a deep sense of fear.


    The old witch sneered at him, her intention clear. "Tell Lin Qi, your life and death are in my hands. With just a thought, I will make sure you die a graveless death. That was just a small punishment."


    The green liquid in his body had long since been wiped clean by a large half by the Death God power. As for the remaining half, it was not enough for him to care about. By doing this, he did not want to lose decorum with the old witch too early.


    Lin Qi looked at the old witch, feigning fear, "You should capture all those people who went to congratulate the Dai Family Clan''s Patriarch. Just say that they molested the small master of the Cheng Family, and we will force them to go and denounce them. When the Dai Family''s Patriarch sees this, he will definitely feel disgraced and apologize to the Cheng Family''s Young Lord personally. At that time, your chance will also come. "


    The moment he said this, everyone''s eyes widened. This harmless looking youth really dared to think of such a thing.


    "Haha, not bad. Little guy sure has brains." The old witch praised Lin Qi, then fiercely said, "At that time I will scare that old bastard. If he doesn''t kowtow in front of everyone and admit his wrongs and offer up his knees, the Cheng family will be annihilated in the future."


    "Heh, I''ll have to trouble you to bring your brain back to talk to me next time." Lin Xing chuckled.


    "What did you say!"


    Hearing this, the old witch flew into a rage again, but was forcefully suppressed. She then sneered, and a layer of power as thick as a mountain enveloped Lin Xing and the others.


    After which, the old witch flew over, using large amounts of turbulent nether energy and sweeping towards the crowd in front of her.


    "Power of the domain!"


    Lin Qi frowned. The reason the old witch did this was to stop them from escaping.


    After the old witch left, Cheng Chen immediately walked up to Lin Xing and asked with concern, "Brother Lin Xing, how are you feeling?"


    Lin Xin raised his hand and pressed it against her wrist, shaking his head, "I''m fine, but towards my suggestion just now, you should be angry. "If the old witch does not handle it well, she will easily attract the wrath of the Cheng family, but there are benefits to doing so. We came all the way here to celebrate the Dai family''s patriarch''s birthday, you can''t not find a reason to do so."


    "How could that be? I know you must have thought it over carefully before saying those words. Moreover, the old witch is rather pitiful. " Cheng Chen seemed to know some secrets about the old witch and spoke in sympathy.


    In fact, Lin Qi had long since realized that the old witch and the Dai Family''s Patriarch must have had something difficult to talk about in the past. Otherwise, they wouldn''t have so much hatred towards each other.


    Suddenly, the old witch flew back from afar, a rope in her hand tying a dozen men. The old witch was flying, and those people were forcefully dragged along the ground by her.


    The old witch flew in front of Cheng Chen and landed steadily on the ground. Then, she pointed at the ten men and cursed, "You beasts, you''ve blinded your dog eyes, and even dared to mess with the Cheng family''s young master. I think you must be tired of living."


    She was the first to make the first move and scolded those people.


    "Senior, no, we don''t."


    "That''s right, senior. I''m the most wronged. I''ve never seen you. The small master of the Cheng family has nothing to do with me."


    "That''s right, this must be done by someone else, it has nothing to do with us. We came here to offer our birthday wishes to the Dai Family''s Patriarch, so how about this, Senior, let us go first. We''ll capture that bastard Little Lord and hand him over to Senior to personally handle."


    The men were all silent and tried to defend themselves in front of the old witch.


    Puff, puff ¡­


    The old witch sneered as she clapped her hands. Ten handprints instantly flew out, and as they were transmitted to her in pain, Lin Xing saw that on the faces of those people, five fiery handprints had appeared at the same time.


    "If it wasn''t you, then who else would it be? Since you guys are going to the Dai family to offer your birthday, then I''ll bring you guys to ask the patriarch of the Dai family for a reasonable explanation."


    The old witch waved her sleeve, and the group of guards with sabers came back to their senses. They hurriedly went forward to suppress the ten men, and set off once more.


    However, not long after he left, the sound of a fierce battle came from the front.


    Lin Qi saw a young daoist in a Daoist robe, engaged in an intense battle with three Dark Dwellers.


    The little Daoist was a person from the Celestial Sect. He restrained his nether energy and even had the strength of a Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant. As for the three of them, they were all in the Heaven Smiting Stage.

 C234

    The young Daoist Priest was about the same age as Lin Xing. He had a picturesque appearance and was wearing a green daoist robe. He held the buddhist dust in his hand and waved his hand. Immediately, a celestial spell was cast.


    He released the aura of the Celestial Movement Stage, locking onto the three Heaven Smiting Stage Nether Realm cultivators. His immortal arts would release thunder and blades from time to time. Before long, the three people''s bodies were charred black and revealed shocking bloody scars.


    The three Dark Dwellers were tortured by him to the point of no return. Miserable cries of agony rang unceasingly.


    The little Daoist looked at this scene in amusement. He gently stroked his sleeves and said with disdain, "You three little bastards actually dared to have any thoughts of me. Now you''ve taught me a lesson."


    "Spare us! Dao Lord, spare us! We have taught you a lesson! Please spare our lowly lives!"


    Even though the three of them were covered in wounds, their vitality was still very strong. Their faces were filled with pain and they were screaming.


    The little Daoist waved a finger in front of his face and chuckled, "This is not enough to teach you a lesson. Since you''ve all come to deliver yourselves, today the path will act on behalf of the heavens."


    As he finished speaking, he lifted his hand and three sharp blades shot out. They were as fast as lightning and dazzling.


    Puff! Puff! Puff!


    Three voices sounded at the same time, and the screams of the three Dark Dwellers immediately came to a stop. Three gigantic heads were activated, and fresh blood sprayed into the sky from their severed necks.


    Seeing this, many people in the crowd were shocked. This young Daoist was quite vicious, and was not much weaker than someone from the Ghost sect.


    The next moment, the little Daoist let out a strong suction force from his left hand that sucked the three bloody heads into his palm. He looked at the three heads in front of him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.


    "Martial Uncle Dai is filled with righteousness, hatred for evil, and hate for the people of the underworld. I came under the order of my teacher to celebrate his birthday, and I didn''t bring much with me. I might as well use these three underworld heads as a congratulatory gift." The little Daoist said righteously.


    When these words fell into Lin Xing''s ears, his view of the world turned upside down. This was the first time he heard of using a person''s head as a congratulatory gift. This little Daoist was truly strange.


    "This old one is also a nether. Why don''t you also cut off this old one''s head?" A hoarse and cold voice rang out.


    When the little Daoist heard this, he was stunned and turned to look at the old witch.


    Suddenly, a wave of energy as heavy as a mountain descended, enveloping his entire body. This immediately caused his shoulders to feel extremely heavy, as if a mountain was pressing down on him. Cold sweat flowed down his forehead.


    "Senior, Senior, even if I had the courage of the small path, I still wouldn''t dare to have any thoughts about you. I will immediately help these three Dark Cultivators to improve their abilities. I hope that Senior will be magnanimous and ignore the small path."


    After understanding that the old witch had a domain of cultivation, the little Daoist''s face turned the color of a pig''s liver. He immediately retracted his arrogant attitude and put on a fawning expression.


    "You are from the Nine Yang Palace?"


    Two lines of sharp fire shot out from the old witch''s eyes and landed on the three people''s heads. The three heads immediately turned into three fireballs. The little Daoist was shocked and he immediately threw the three fireballs onto the ground, burning them into ashes.


    "That''s right, that small path is the head disciple of the Nine Yang Palace, Yang Yun." The little Daoist replied respectfully.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the surrounding people all had surprised expressions on their faces. The Nine Yang Palace was a famous sect in the Heaven''s End Great Land; it was ranked 23rd on the sect rankings.


    As the head disciple of the Nine Yang Palace, the little Daoist Priest had an origin that could not be underestimated. Ordinary people would not dare to provoke him.


    After announcing her name, the little Daoist couldn''t help but have a proud expression on his face. So what if the old witch was a Domain Realm expert? Even if he was guaranteed, he still wouldn''t dare to touch her.


    No one dared to challenge the big sects on the sects'' rankings. Even if it was the Cheng family that had eight hundred thousand li of territory, they still wouldn''t be able to withstand that rage.


    However, by his side, Lin Xing had obviously noticed that after the old witch had heard the exact answer, the hostility around her had increased by quite a bit.


    This crazy woman was no ordinary person. She might be able to do something out of the ordinary. If the little Daoist saw her with the eyes of an ordinary person, he would definitely regret it.


    "Old man, you want to kill that bunch of righteous brutes from your Nine Sun Palace."


    A ruthless voice rang out and the old witch''s figure disappeared into thin air. When she reappeared, she was on top of the little Daoist''s head. Her five sharp black nails opened up and grabbed at the little Daoist.


    The little Daoist''s expression changed. He already had the power of the domain suppressing him, making it difficult for him to move his limbs. However, being able to sit as the head disciple of the Nine Yang Palace was clearly not an easy task.


    He quickly made a counterattack, waving his buddhist dust vigorously. Dozens of sharp sword rays pierced through the air, shooting upwards. The sharp sounds made everyone''s scalp tingle.


    Clang clang!


    The old witch disdainfully sneered. Her five black fingernails stretched out endlessly, retracting all the sharp blades that had shot at her. Holding them in her hands, she turned them into powder.


    The little Daoist was slightly shocked. The dust turned into a sword and like a sword, it cleaved apart the power of the domain. He turned around and ran, not daring to stop for even a second.


    "Where do you think you''re going!"


    The old witch roared as her five nails slashed through the air, causing several sharp objects to flash by. The little Daoist immediately flew backwards, his back was covered in blood.

 C235

    The little Daoist leader Yang Yun''s complexion turned a bit purple. Seeing the old witch charge towards him again, his eyes darkened and he immediately stood up. Buddha''s dust crazily stirred and the surrounding wind began to blow.


    Chi chi ¡­


    In the midst of the gale, the silhouette of a human face could be vaguely seen. Its mouth was slightly open, and from within it, a flying sword three meters long was constantly being shot out, its entire body flashing with white light.


    "Divine Wind Formula of the Nine Yang Palace."


    The old witch''s tone was filled with shock, but soon after, she let out a muffled groan. The nether energy around her transformed into a python, opening its large black mouth and fiercely biting towards the human face.


    Shua Yang Hua''s body trembled as he pointed his finger into the air. Strands of milky-white immortal qi flew out and entered the face, then immediately turned into four huge wind blades that shot out from the face to block the python''s attack.


    However, although he was a prodigy from the younger generation, regardless of his battle experience or cultivation, there was a huge gap between him and the old witch. The python immediately spat out a black flame and burned the four wind blades to ashes.


    Then, the python continued to bite down. The human face could no longer withstand the pressure and disappeared. The surrounding wind also stopped abruptly.


    This battle dazzled Cheng Chen and the rest. It was a battle between the Heaven Speeding Stage cultivators, and a game between the Celestial Sect and the Underworld Sect. It was quite rare.


    At the same time, Shuai Yanghua flew another three kilometers. The old witch was very strong, and her skills were unpredictable. With his cultivation, he would still need another seven to eight years to cultivate her.


    Pity that he had overestimated the old witch''s abilities. It was obvious that she did not plan on letting him go, and in the blink of an eye, she was right in front of him.


    "Stop."


    Suddenly, a male voice rang out and spread across the entire area. The old witch retracted her pale eyes and stopped in her tracks. She turned around and landed on the ground.


    A youth rushed over from afar. His figure was as fast as lightning, and in a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Yang Hua.


    With a glance, Lin Xing could tell that this person''s strength was at the peak of the Heaven Smiting Stage. One of his legs had already stepped into the Heaven''s Perception Stage!


    "Senior brother Yang Hua, why are you fighting with the Cheng family''s senior?" the teenager asked Shuai Yanghua.


    Yang Hua let out an awkward laugh. He forced out a smile from his stiff face and said, "It''s a misunderstanding. It''s all a misunderstanding. Dai Feng, listen to me."


    After that, he told Dai Feng everything that had happened.


    After hearing it, Dai Feng nodded his head slowly and turned to clasp his fists towards the old witch. He said in an apologetic tone, "Senior, I have some understanding about what happened just now. This is indeed a misunderstanding.


    At this moment, Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the guards with sabers walked over with a dozen or so men. Their gazes all landed on this young man.


    "Are you from the Nine Yang Palace?" The old witch looked at Dai Feng with a cold glint in her eyes.


    Dai Feng''s heart trembled. He felt the madwoman''s killing intent and quickly replied, "Reporting to senior, my grandfather once cultivated in the Nine Sun Palace, while junior is a disciple of the Gui Spirit Sect."


    "Gui Spirit Sect?"


    Hearing this, the old witch''s killing intent was gradually restrained, and the cold glint in her eyes gradually disappeared.


    The Gui Spirit God Sect was a divine arts sect, and was ranked nineteenth on the sect''s rankings. It did not have much conflict with the old witch before, and her goal in coming here was not just to kill the two seniors.


    He sneered in his heart for a while before retracting his thoughts and staring at Dai Feng.


    He heard Dai Feng say, "Just now, I heard that a senior from the Cheng family came to congratulate my grandfather. After my grandfather heard this news, he was overjoyed and sent me to welcome him.


    "Your grandfather only sent you to meet him?" The old witch asked in a low voice.


    "Yes, Senior. Grandfather is truly too busy to leave. Please forgive me, Senior. When I return home, I will ask Grandfather to come personally and apologize to Senior." Dai Feng replied apologetically.


    As the saying goes, you don''t need to hit a smiling person. Dai Feng was very courteous and gave a respectful bow. He also won a lot of goodwill from Lin Qi and Cheng Chen. The latter wanted to reply, but the old witch''s voice beat him to it.


    The old witch''s tone was stern as she said fiercely, "Do you know that the person standing in front of you is the young master of the Cheng family? If it were your grandfather, it would be fine. Let me tell you, if you don''t have proper etiquette, you can lower your tongue and discredit our Cheng family. Don''t blame our Cheng family for not being courteous. "


    A short pause sounded in Dai Feng''s ears, causing his face to darken immediately.


    "I don''t mind telling you the truth. With a small clan like your Dai Family, my Cheng Family would not even care about it. Do you really think we came to congratulate your grandfather? In fact, when we passed by this place, we did not want to meet this group of beasts. You actually dares to disrespect our little master, and after some inquiry, we found out that they are all honored guests invited by your Dai Family. Haha, I hope your Dai Family can give you an explanation regarding this matter. "


    The old witch was unrelenting as she spoke with great eloquence. Pointing at the ten or so men she had captured earlier, she spat at Dai Feng.


    "Young Master Dai, we are wrongly accused. We did not do this."


    "Young Master Dai, the little master of the Cheng family is someone else. It has nothing to do with us."


    More than ten men were crying for their mothers and fathers, crying for their wrongdoings.


    Actually, they didn''t feel wronged. Lin Xing and Cheng Chen understood best, so who told them to be unlucky?

 C236

    "There''s actually such a thing!"


    Dyfon frowned, and two pairs of cold eyes swept over the ten or so men tied up.


    This matter was neither big nor small, and it was handled appropriately. However, if the matter was handled wrongly, it would likely attract the anger of the Cheng family.


    The Cheng family was a reputable aristocratic warrior clan in the land of Heaven''s End. They ruled the 800,000 mile territory and had 500 thousand miles more than their Dai family. As for those 500 thousand miles, how many armors could they produce? It was obvious that even the Dai Family wouldn''t be able to catch up.


    "Hmph." Without a reasonable explanation, my Cheng family wouldn''t mind causing a ruckus on your grandfather''s birthday. I don''t think anyone would want to see that kind of result, right? " The old witch curled her lips and laughed.


    As these words were spoken, the complexions of both Dai Feng and Shuai Yanghua immediately darkened. They had gone too far.


    However, even though they knew that he was bullying them, they did not dare to openly retort. After all, the Dai Clan was weak.


    Cheng Chen''s face was livid as well. The old witch calling the Cheng family and their young master, pulling the Cheng family''s signboard to show off her might made her feel very unhappy.


    It was fortunate that the old witch was in charge, otherwise, the Cheng family''s reputation would go from bad to worse.


    "How about this, senior, push them back into our Cheng family. I will report this to grandfather and have them investigate until the truth is revealed. I will also ensure that little lord''s innocence. If what senior said is true, then these people will be at your disposal." Devon thought for a moment, then made up his mind.


    "Fine, I''ll go and join in on the fun. A little bit of your grandfather''s immortal energy. " The old witch revealed a strange smile.


    Only then did Dai Feng calm down. He gave Cheng Chen a respectful bow and made a "please" gesture before walking to the front with Yang Hua.


    The two of them did not walk too far before the old witch ordered Cheng Chen to sit in the carriage. She then personally drove the carriage, leading a group of people to follow.


    As she was walking, the old witch suddenly gave two mysterious sneers. She looked towards Lin Xing and said in a soft but proud voice, "Boy, don''t think that I don''t know about the good things you''ve done. I didn''t expose you because I just wanted to make this show a little more lively. So, in the future, you''d better not play any tricks in front of me. My patience is extremely limited. "


    Lin Qi''s heart tightened. He raised his head and looked at the wrinkled face with an astonished expression.


    The old witch was naturally referring to the markings he had left behind along the way. To think that the old witch was able to see through it so easily, this was somewhat out of his expectations.


    When his thoughts traveled here, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.


    Cheng Chen was in danger.


    This old witch was a complete madman. She had completely disregarded the consequences for the sake of revenge. Since she clearly knew that Lin Xing had set the mark but did not expose it, she was obviously scheming to draw the Cheng Family''s fury to the Dai Family.


    This was on the premise that Cheng Chen had to die. Only in this way would she be able to trigger the Cheng family''s anger.


    What a good move to lure trouble to the east!


    At this moment, Cheng Chen was his weak spot. If the old witch dared to lay a finger on Cheng Chen, he wouldn''t mind getting her burnt to ashes.


    "Old witch, let me warn you. If anything happened to Cheng Chen, it would be hard for you to die even if you wanted to." Lin Xing threatened, his gaze sharp as a knife.


    "Haha ¡­" A junior-level genius like you actually dared to threaten me? Don''t you see what you are? " The old witch sneered and turned her head forward, silent.


    Lin Qi also became silent. The corners of his mouth raised in a mysterious smile, making him hard to fathom.


    After roughly an hour, under the lead of Dai Feng, they entered into a city.


    Although the city wasn''t as magnificent as the Heaven Cauldron, it was still quite grand. It was as if the city had not been built for more than a hundred years.


    High towers, grand halls, rows upon rows of magnificent buildings.


    Not long after they entered the city, Dai Feng led them to an enormous mansion. The sound of people clamouring could be heard outside of the mansion. The lights were lit, the atmosphere was peaceful, and the meaning was mysterious.


    As soon as he entered, an old man in flowery armor walked over quickly from the crowd of people.


    His temples were like frost, and his face was kind and kind. His eyes were deep and bright. There was a smile on his face that made people feel a sense of familiarity.


    "This must be the young master of the Cheng family. Please forgive this old man for being so busy with worldly affairs and being unable to welcome you in the distance." Today, little master has personally come to celebrate this old man''s birthday. It is truly a blessing in disguise for this old man. "


    This benevolent old man was today''s longevity star, the Dai Clan Chief, Dai Heng.


    To be so polite to a junior, Cheng Chen naturally did not dare to be careless. She quickly bowed and said, "Chief Dai, you are too kind. It is junior''s honor to be able to come and celebrate your birthday."


    "This old man truly admires the high standards of the young lord." Dai Heng slightly bent his back, raised his head, and praised Cheng Chen.


    He turned around, raised his arm, and gestured towards Cheng Chen: "Little master, please enter the inner hall to speak."


    "Sure." Cheng Chen replied with a smile.


    However, just as she lifted her foot, a hoarse voice rang out.


    "Patriarch Dai, please wait a moment. The Cheng family is not related to your Dai family, and you do not want to know why our young master came to offer his birthday wishes?" Is it really because you think that you feel good about yourself? "


    The person who spoke was the old witch. Her voice was stern and filled with mockery.


    "How dare you. This is our Cheng Clan''s territory, don''t be too arrogant. "


    Immediately, a middle-aged man stood out from behind Dai Heng and retaliated against the old witch.

 C237

    "May I know who this is?"


    Dai Feng raised his hand to press the middle-aged man back down. He narrowed his eyes at the old witch as he asked in astonishment.


    "Oh, she is ¡­" "Who am I? You don''t need to worry about me. We were simply passing by here today and did not expect to meet a group of scum that would dare to molest our little master. They said they are here to offer their birthday wishes to Clan Leader Dai.


    Lin Qi was the closest to the old witch and could clearly feel her killing intent from her heart. His previous guess had been confirmed at this moment. The old witch''s hatred had clearly originated from a long time ago, it might have been accumulated for many years.


    Her face was old and her facial features were covered by her hair. Even after so many years had passed, Dai Heng still hadn''t been able to recognize her.


    "Is that true?"


    Dai Heng''s face darkened and his benevolent expression gradually disappeared. His gaze swept across the ten over men that were tied to the ground before finally landing on Dai Feng.


    "Clan Chief Dai, we have been wrongly accused."


    "Chief Dai, we did not do it. We did not meet with the young master of the Mo family."


    Dai Heng took a deep breath, raised his arm and pressed it down, scolding them. Only then did they shrink their necks and quieten down.


    "Grandfather, this matter still needs to be verified." Dai Feng said.


    He was not an idiot. There were too many doubts in his mind regarding this matter. He could not just listen to the old witch''s one-sided words. He suspected that the old witch was fabricating this matter out of thin air!


    However, thinking about it, they had no enmity with the Cheng family, so there was no need to do this.


    Thinking up to this point, Dai Heng and Dai Feng''s expressions turned odd, and no matter how hard they racked their brains, they could not come up with an answer.


    "Young master Cheng, I think this must be a misunderstanding. I''ll send someone to investigate right now. If he dares to disrespect my esteemed guest in my Dai family''s territory, I won''t let him off easily." Dai Heng said solemnly.


    "There''s no need to investigate. Since what happened in your Dai Family''s territory was done, you, as the Patriarch, must not shirk your responsibility. My family''s young master has a very high standard, so we can let him off, but this is on the premise that Patriarch Dai must personally apologize." The old witch sneered.


    Dai Heng nodded his head slowly and said, "Of course, of course. I will apologize to you now."


    With that, he bent down and kowtowed to Cheng Chen.


    The surrounding Dai Clan disciples and guests could see that although they were angry, they could do nothing about it.


    However, who would have thought that the old witch was sinister and said, "This is not enough, you don''t have the slightest bit of sincerity. The apology I spoke of is for you to kneel down and kowtow three times. "


    "What!?" This is going too far. "


    "This is impossible. Please leave immediately. The Dai Family does not welcome you."


    Everyone was roaring and fuming. As they stared at Cheng Chen and the old witch, their eyes were filled with rage.


    This request from the old witch had already touched their bottom line. If it were not for the fact that they were worried about the Cheng family''s influence, if it were any other family, Dai Feng would have long done the deed.


    In fact, even Lin Xing and Cheng Chen were stunned when they heard the old witch''s words.


    The old witch had really gone mad.


    Even the shrewd Dai Heng almost fell to the ground when he heard these words.


    "Something that has yet to be verified, a dignified Patriarch Dai, you want him to kneel down with just a few words? His face was disgraced, and he was unable to protect his evening festival. With how venomous your heart is, this is not a place where you should come to. Take your master and get the hell out of here before I get angry. "


    A crisp and domineering voice sounded out. Following which, a blue-clothed woman appeared in the air and stood straight.


    The woman who had just appeared had beautiful eyes like a charming green mountain. She was graceful and her gaze was like a torch as she stared at the old witch with hostility.


    "Elder Sister Xian, why are you here?" When Dai Feng saw the woman, he was instantly overjoyed and incomparably excited.


    "Junior Dai, although you have never entered the Heavenly Cauldron before, you are Master''s most treasured disciple. Master heard that your grandfather is celebrating his birthday, so he sent me to congratulate Patriarch Dai in his place."


    "This official''s words are too serious. Your master is so important to me, and he even sent you to wish me on my birthday. This old man is truly flattered." Dai Heng immediately smiled and shifted his focus to the blue clothed girl.


    Seeing the sincere respect on his face, Cheng Chen and the old witch''s expressions changed slightly. They must have guessed the identity of the blue-clothed woman.


    Your subject? Could it be someone from the subject''s family?


    This subject was a soldier of the imperial family. He had over a million li of territory and was even stronger than the Cheng family. If he was really someone of the Cheng family, then Dai Heng wouldn''t have to be afraid of the Cheng family.


    And, when this subject Xian Xian knew that Cheng Chen and the old witch were from the Cheng family, she dared to be so arrogant and dared to tell them to scram the moment she opened her mouth.


    "I have just arrived. I do not wish to encounter such a good show. Clan Chief Dai, have you encountered any trouble?" Chen Xian asked coldly, her eyes looking at Cheng Chen Ren and the rest.


    "It''s nothing, it''s just a small problem, I don''t need you to step in." Dai Heng waved his hand and smiled.

 C238

    Dai Heng smiled, his expression extremely relaxed. From start to finish, he had never taken this small matter as an issue.


    If it were not for Chen Xian''s support, he really would not have placed Cheng Chen, the young master of the Cheng family, to his heart.


    His tone was respectful but also indifferent as he said, "Young master Cheng, the person who has come is a guest. No matter what the reason is, I respect you for being able to come to my house today, so if you don''t mind, please eat a meal with my Dai family. When this old man''s birthday is over, I will send someone to investigate this matter and return the young master''s innocence to my Dai family."


    With a bitter look on his face, Cheng Chen nodded under the watchful eyes of the crowd.


    "Old thing, I''ll kill you."


    However, just as everyone''s expressions calmed down, a shocking change happened to the old witch''s body. Black, powerful nether energy shot out from her head like a python, biting towards Dai Heng with its mouth wide open.


    The old witch knew that it was impossible for her to embarrass Dai Heng today. Infinite killing intent exploded out in an instant, suppressing the hatred she had accumulated for countless years. It practically materialized and spread in all directions.


    Her actions were too decisive, so decisive that no one could react, including Dai Heng.


    The two of them stood very close to each other, and Dai Heng was bitten by the python without any warning. The sharp fangs drew a bloody line in front of his chest. At the same time, his body flew backward.


    At the same time, at some unknown time, a dense number of green spiders appeared on the ground. The spiders were the size of a palm, and each of their teeth was poisonous.


    This was too terrifying. At the same time that everyone was terrified, the Dai Clan disciples also became furious.


    Suddenly, the old witch''s body flashed as she dashed towards Dai Heng. At the same time, she lifted up the hair on her face, her aged facial features clearly visible.


    "Old Demon Dai, do you still remember me?"


    "Hmm?" Surprised, Dai Heng suddenly recalled a memory that was hidden deep within his heart. His expression immediately changed drastically as he cried out involuntarily, "It''s you! How could it be you ¡­"


    He found it hard to believe. His voice was tinged with fear, and he was unable to maintain his composure.


    "You didn''t think that I didn''t die? Back then, your subordinates could not bear to kill me, so they let me live." Today, I will slaughter your entire Dai Family and let this three hundred thousand mile area be filled with blood. This will be my memorial to the wronged dead of the Yao Family. "


    The old witch was on the verge of exploding, filled with boundless hatred. An incomparable killing intent soared into the sky, aimed at Dai Heng, and immediately unleashed her deathblow.


    Yao family?


    Many of the older people who came to congratulate Dai Heng on his death seemed to recall something from the past.


    This subject has heard of this matter before. At this moment, she frowned and looked at the old witch.


    Fifty years ago, this territory belonged to the Yao Family, but for some reason, all of the Yao Family''s clansmen were slaughtered overnight. Not long after, Dai Heng took over this territory, creating the Dai Family.


    Thinking back now, the death of the Yao Family had nothing to do with Dai Heng. No one would believe it.


    "Alright, you came back. All these years, I have been looking for you too, and I have always felt guilty in my heart. If I am still alone now, I can just stand there and let you do whatever you want with me. However, I am the Dai Family Patriarch and the guardian of the Dai Family. I will not allow anyone to trample on my family members, so, you must die. " Dai Heng''s face was gloomy as he activated a set of immortal arts, clashing with the old witch.


    "Haha ¡­"


    The old witch''s pent-up anger exploded like a torrent in front of her enemies.


    Both of them had a Domain Realm cultivation base, especially for Dai Heng. His entire body was hazy, and his movements were mystical. It was as if he was one with the world. This was a sign that he was about to step into the Transcendent realm.


    "Kill! Kill them all!"


    Yet another ear-piercing sound suddenly rang out, stimulating the nerves of the Dai Family members.


    Lin Qi was astonished, because the one who said this was not the old witch, but Cheng Chen.


    Seeing Cheng Chen''s crazed expression, her beautiful face blushed red. Her eyes were empty and fierce as she pointed at the Dai Family clansmen, while her killing intent continued to spread.


    So this was the old witch''s plan. Lin Xing understood that Cheng Chen''s mind had been manipulated and was unable to control herself.


    "I, the Dai Clan, respect you as a guest. Since you do not know what''s good for you, your corpse shall remain in the Dai Clan''s territory forever."


    A bellyful of anger had already been building up in Dai Feng''s heart. At this moment, hearing Cheng Chen''s roar, he could no longer endure it any longer. He spread open his arms and a divine art emerged.


    Puff!


    However, he had only used a tiny bit of his divine technique, and did not even launch an attack. A streak of sword light flashed through the sky like a bolt of lightning, and he completely stopped moving.


    "If you want to touch her, then you must have the will to die."


    Lin Qi''s body disappeared and returned to his original position. There was a drop of blood on the tip of the celestial sword.


    At this moment, the air seemed to have frozen.


    The next moment, Dai Feng''s head fell to the ground, blood gushing out. His eyes and expression were the same as when he was alive. Even until the moment of his death, he did not understand what had happened.


    He then turned his head to look at the sword-wielding youth. Everyone was shocked. A young expert at the peak of the Heaven Smiting Stage had been killed by his sword just like that, without any forewarning?

 C239

    "You killed him? Do you know that he''s a disciple of our Gui Spirit Sect? You actually dared to kill him! "


    Chen Xian''s face turned purple and her eyes were cold. Looking at Lin Xing, her eyes were like daggers as she said these words while gritting her teeth.


    At the same time, Yang Hua and the other Dai Family disciples also regained their senses. Countless pairs of eyes stared at Lin Qi, wishing that they could tear him to shreds.


    "Little bastard!"


    Dai Heng, who was fighting with the old witch, also noticed the commotion. Looking at Dai Feng''s headless corpse, then looking at Lin Xing''s figure, he charged towards Lin Xing in a rage.


    "Old thing, your enemy is me." The old witch blocked his way.


    "Scram!" Dai Heng flew into a rage. He waved his sleeve and forced the old witch to retreat temporarily. A large wind blade shot out, aiming straight at Lin Qi.


    Lin Qi was calm and collected, and his demeanor was calm and unperturbed the entire time. He swung the Immortal Sword and easily dispelled all of the wind blades.


    At this point, Chen Xian launched an attack on him. Lotus flowers sprouted from her feet as layers of green flames continued to burn from her feet. It was extremely cold and shocking.


    "Dai Feng deserved to die. Since your Gui Spirit Sect also wants to interfere, I don''t mind accompanying them to the end."


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold, he took the initiative to attack with his Immortal sword, and immediately unleashed the third wave of Divine Sword Technique, slashing out two swords that could cut through the flames, and the third sword landed right on top of Xian Xian''s head.


    Sensing that the power of the third sword attack had increased dramatically, Cheng Xian''s face lost all color, and she was momentarily dazed.


    Yang Hua saw that the force wasn''t right, so he immediately took action in anger. He activated his Divine Wind Formula, and one blade after another shot out crazily from the wind.


    Lin Qi had no other choice but to withdraw the third sword attack and avoid the attack.


    "Are you really only in the Heaven Smiting Stage?" Chen Xian was shocked beyond words, her eyes filled with fear.


    "Who cares? Let me fight him. He''s just a nobody. I can cut off his head with a flick of my finger." Yang Hua sneered, and then with a gust of wind, he closed in on Lin Qi like two mountains.


    The heavy force also caused Lin Xing to frown. He then took out the second Immortal sword from his soul hole and slashed down towards both sides of Wind Mountain.


    As the huge sword light jumped, the two sides of the mountain trembled and shattered into pieces at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.


    At the same time, a second generation Dai family member and a middle-aged man at the Heaven''s Speed realm directly shook all of the saber-carrying guards to death, then went to capture Cheng Chen.


    "You''re courting death." Lin Qi flew into a rage, leaping up, both swords flew out at the same time, infused with a thick death god''s divine power.


    The middle-aged man reacted quickly and easily dodged the two flying swords. However, there was still a small wound on his left shoulder. However, the wound was nothing to him.


    However, what was most life-threatening was that the wound instantly turned black. Even the blood that flowed out from it was black. At the same time, a destructive power rushed into his body and strangled his life force.


    "Ah, what is this!"


    Panic filled his face. His face was slightly twisted, and he looked as if he was struggling. His life force was slipping away at every moment.


    Upon seeing this, Yang Hua and Chen Xian dragged him back, helping him suppress the God Power, and the latter came to kill Lin Xing.


    Boom ¡­


    Just at this moment, a powerful energy flew out from the sky. It was extremely shocking, causing the houses on the ground to collapse in groups.


    "Stop, who dares to touch the young master of our Cheng Family."


    A group of people flew over from the distance. They were all at the Heaven''s Perception Realm. The one leading them was an old man with an angry expression on his face. Behind him were about ten armored soldiers wearing rhinoceros armor.


    When the leading old man saw Cheng Chen, his expression immediately changed to one of tender love. He brought the soldier down and tightly protected Cheng Chen''s surroundings.


    Cheng Chen was a bit dazed. The old man saw this and became angry. He hit the center of Cheng Chen''s brow, then with two fingers, he pulled out a small black bug.


    A wisp of flame shot out from his fingertip and wrapped around the Underworld Worm. Then, with two cracking sounds, it turned into ashes.


    Seeing this scene, Lin Qi couldn''t help but feel nauseous. He suspected that the old witch had helped him drink that green liquid, which was most likely something with intelligence.


    Fortunately, he had already used the Death God power to wipe out more than half of it. Otherwise, if the light remained inside his body, even if there was no danger, it would have been enough to make him feel disgusted.


    "Who is it?" To think that it would be so vicious. If I had come a little later, I fear that little master would have become an idiot in his life. " The old man became angry and viciously said.


    At this moment, Lin Xing escaped from the entanglement of the Sun Head and landed in front of Cheng Chen.


    "I saw what happened just now. Thank you for helping me." The old man thanked him.


    Lin Qi nodded his head slightly and did not say anything else. He raised his head to look at the old witch and Dai Heng who were fighting in the sky. He then retracted his gaze and looked at Cheng Chen with concern.


    After the Underworld Worm was forced out by the old man, Cheng Chen''s face was still somewhat pale, but her mind had obviously recovered. Her eyes were filled with fear.


    "Uncle Qian!" Cheng Chen looked at the old man, overjoyed.


    "Young master, this old servant found the marks you left along the way and chased them all the way here. I was almost too late." Uncle Qian was full of remorse.


    "Not too late, not too late. "It''s good that you''re here." Cheng Chen consoled him, then she used a strange expression to observe Lin Xing''s demeanor.


    Although her mind was being controlled, she still vividly remembered the scene where Lin Ming killed Dai Feng with a single sword strike. She never imagined that there would be such an expert hidden by her side.

 C240

    "Big brother Lin Xing ¡­" I truly thank you. If you weren''t here today, I would have truly suffered. " Cheng Chen pouted and said slowly as he pressed down on his lower lip.


    Lin Xing smiled and said, "Little sister Cheng Chen, you think of me as your big brother. As your big brother, I will definitely protect you. No one can touch a single finger of yours in front of me."


    "Thank you ¡­" Cheng Chen was deeply touched and her eyes turned slightly red.


    "Oh right, little master, let me tell you a piece of good news. Your brother Cheng Chen already returned from the Heavenly Cauldron yesterday. I am currently recuperating from my injuries in the Heaven Mending Sect. " Uncle Qian suddenly said with a smile.


    "Really? Big brother is back? "


    Hearing this news, Cheng Chen was unable to contain her joy, joy that came from the bottom of her heart.


    Then he smiled and nodded, "That''s right, based on my calculations, it has just been three months. "Originally, I wanted to go to the Heaven Mending Sect to wait for my brother''s return and celebrate for him. However, I didn''t expect that by some strange coincidence, I arrived at the Dai Family and delayed my journey."


    When Lin Xing heard the words'' Heavenly Cauldron '', his expression became extremely strange, but no one noticed it.


    He suddenly recalled the three months he had spent in the Heavenly Cauldron. Scenes that struck fear into the mind quickly flashed through his mind, especially those of his old friends. They were nostalgic, as if they had been separated for a lifetime.


    When Yang Hua and Chen Xian heard this, their expressions changed slightly. Obviously, they had heard of the name, Mo Chen.


    Three months ago, Cheng Chen had triggered the Heavenly Cauldron and caused a huge sensation in Tian Jue. His fame had risen sharply in Tian Jue Land and he had become the focus of all the sects'' attention.


    Although this Heaven''s End Great Land was a land filled with great treasures and talents, it was not that rare. Every single one of them were geniuses painstakingly cultivated by their sects and clans, so their names were worth anyone remembering.


    "Wait, Uncle Qian, you just said that my brother is currently recuperating. What''s going on?" Cheng Chen suddenly asked anxiously.


    "This old servant isn''t clear about the details, it''s just that Patriarch vaguely mentioned it." Uncle Qian replied.


    "Uncle Qian, quickly give me two flying talismans. I''m going to the Heaven Mending Sect to look for my brother." Cheng Chen said in an anxious tone.


    "Two flight talismans? "Why don''t I take you there?" Uncle Qian was stunned for a moment before he asked in surprise.


    Cheng Chen glanced at the people around her, took a deep breath, and said, "No, just now, big brother Lin Xing killed the Dai Family''s third generation''s most outstanding Dai Feng, and the Dai Family will not let this go. Moreover, this matter is related to our Cheng Family, so you have to stay and take care of it, if they want to compensate you, no matter the cost, you have to give it to them. As for the old witch, she is also a lunatic, so we have to stop her actions and try to ease the relationship between us and the Dai Family as much as possible. "


    Cheng Chen finished her sentence in one breath. She was extremely experienced in handling matters. After a few sentences, she had finished explaining everything.


    "What if they don''t agree to the compensation and want me to pay for it with my life?" Lin Xing said.


    With a tremble of her body, Cheng Chen continued to command Uncle Qian, "I will not allow this to happen!"


    "Understood." Uncle Qian replied with a sonorous voice.


    Then, he took out two flight talismans. Cheng Chen took them and gave one to Lin Xing.


    After that, the two flight talismans exploded with two strange powers, wrapping around the two of them. There seemed to be some kind of mysterious power under their feet that lifted them off the ground.


    Afterwards, the two of them controlled the power bestowed by the flight talisman and soared into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.


    The two flight talismans had sufficient strength to support his movements. It was only when they reached the gates of the Heaven Mending Sect that the strength beneath their feet finally disappeared.


    And at this time, two days had already passed.


    The Heaven Mending Sect was an impressive and famous Divine Arts Sect in the Heaven''s End Great Land. It was ranked 14th on the sect rankings and was much higher in terms of specific gravity.


    All the mountains in the mountain gate stand tall, towering into the clouds, majestic and magnificent. The surrounding hundred miles were covered with mist, and divine power gushed forth. It was as if every inch of the ground was emitting a resplendent golden light.


    Cheng Chen and Lin Xing both landed on the ground. In front of the mountain gate, two young disciples were blocking their path.


    Cheng Chen took out a golden token from her bosom. The word "Heaven Mending" was engraved on it, and it dazzled in front of the two young disciples. She then chose to let them pass.


    "Big brother Lin Xing, in truth, I''m also an inner disciple of the Heaven Mending Sect. However, because I''m usually busy with family affairs, I rarely train in the sect, so those two disciples didn''t recognize me!" Cheng Chen saw Lin Xing''s searching gaze, so she explained it to him.


    Lin Qi was relieved and followed Cheng Chen to a mountain peak.


    Before long, they arrived at a cave. The surroundings were very quiet, and not a single person could be seen. Bright lights were burning within the cave, and it was relatively bright. Living furniture was all there was.


    In the deepest part, a young man sat upright on a stone bed.


    He was tall, well-dressed, and his face was a little pale. He had a sickly look on his face, and as a result, his imposing aura from before vanished without a trace.


    "Big brother, how did you end up like this?" Seeing that, Cheng Chen immediately trotted over, held Cheng Chen''s hand, and looked at him with concern.

 C241

    "Sister, you''re here." However, his tone was very weak as he said, "This matter is quite simple. It is not because I was injured in the Heavenly Cauldron, but when I was sent out, I encountered a spatial turbulence, and the life force in my body was almost squeezed dry. The most terrifying thing is that my soul had suffered a heavy injury because of this, making it difficult to recover within a short period of time."


    "Chaotic Space!" Upon hearing this, Lin Qi could not help but let out a cry of shock from the bottom of his heart.


    "This is?" Cheng Chen squinted at him and asked Cheng Chen.


    "Oh, he is big brother Lin Xing, he saved my life." Cheng Chen replied.


    "So that''s how it is. Then little sister, you must repay this kindness, this Brother Lin. " Shock appeared in Cheng Chen''s eyes, but it quickly disappeared as he turned to smile at Lin Xing.


    "Of course." Cheng Chen chuckled.


    Lin Xing turned a deaf ear to the conversation between the two of them. His expression was one of extreme bewilderment as he focused all of his attention on the word ''turbulent''.


    When he had exited the Heavenly Cauldron, he had suffered such heavy injuries because of the spatial turbulence. Even after half a month, he still hadn''t completely recovered. Especially his soul, since it had been severely injured, leaving behind scars that would be difficult to heal.


    He had naively believed that he was the only one who had encountered such a situation.


    Now that he heard Cheng Chen mention it, he was not the only one who encountered such a situation.


    Thinking of this, he speculated, could it be that everyone that was sent out of the Sky Cauldron had been met with chaotic space?


    But that had never happened before.


    Could it be that during that period of time, the space around the Sky Cauldron had broken down? This was why spacetime was so chaotic. Every single freak who was sent out of the Heaven Cauldron happened to encounter this sort of situation at the same time.


    This possibility was not non-existent.


    Cheng Chen''s injuries were clearly much lighter than his. At that time, he was in a coma for an entire month before he woke up.


    "That''s right, big brother, you just came back from the Heavenly Cauldron. Tell us about your experiences and let us experience the top geniuses of the world." Cheng Chen suddenly revealed a face of surprise.


    Lin Qi retracted his thoughts and looked at Cheng Chen with interest.


    Sensing their curious gazes, Cheng Chen slowly nodded his head and spoke with a rather melancholy tone, "Little sister, although you have never entered the Heavenly Cauldron before, you should have heard of some things about the Heavenly Cauldron. With my cultivation, in the Heavenly Cauldron, before I left, I was only able to obtain one title.


    His eyes suddenly filled with respect. He raised his head and said, "I actually know a person who has just entered the Heavenly Cauldron for five days. In his anger, he killed over a hundred Scholars. After that, he went and challenged the Palace Masters of the various branch halls of the World Alliance. In half a day, he defeated all the Palace Masters of the World Alliance, and after that, the Alliance Master allowed him to ascend to the position of Vice Alliance Master, giving orders to the five hundred odd Qi warriors. Afterwards, in the midst of the beast tide, he turned the tide and killed two Earth Flames ¡­ "


    From the very first sentence, Cheng Chen was attracted by the story. Her phoenix eyes were wide open and her mouth was occasionally wide open from being too excited.


    Lin Qi, who was standing beside him, had a strange expression on his face. The more he listened, the more upset he got.


    How come the person Cheng Chen was talking about resembled him so much? But it''s not that exaggerated.


    Indeed!


    "Grand!" Brother, you said that the title of Grand Duke hasn''t appeared in five hundred years, yet this person actually obtained it? " Cheng Chen was shocked beyond belief.


    "Yeah, it''s precisely because he obtained the title of Grand Duke that people are praised as the number one person in the history of the Heavenly Cauldron in the past 500 years." Cheng Chen was also deeply moved. This was his idol, an existence that he could only respect and respect.


    He was the king of the entire heaven and earth, among the younger generation.


    "This is too terrifying, even the Grand Preceptor has appeared. Who can stop him in the future? This is a firm guarantee that he will become a future supreme expert!" Unable to suppress his shock, Cheng Chen cried out in alarm.


    "Who wouldn''t? Hate that when I went to the Heavenly Cauldron, that person had already obtained the title of Grand Duke, and all his enemies were killed by him, so no one else in the Heavenly Cauldron is his opponent, so he missed out on many good scenes. From then on, that person never showed up again, so I didn''t witness his brilliance, and this matter really made me regret for the rest of my life." At the very end, Cheng Chen pounded his chest and stamped his feet, and his body trembled in agitation.


    "Mm, it''s indeed quite a pity. With such a heaven-defying character, who wouldn''t want to take a look at him?" Brother, what''s the name of that person? " Cheng Chen sighed and asked curiously.


    "Lin Xing!" Cheng Chen replied with a sonorous voice.


    Hearing that, Cheng Chen''s expression immediately turned weird. She subconsciously shifted her gaze to Lin Xing.


    "What a coincidence, we are actually of the same surname." Cheng Chen looked at him.


    He rubbed his head and chuckled, "That''s such a coincidence. I''ve never been to the Heavenly Cauldron before. But then again, after hearing Brother Cheng''s story, I began to admire that person."


    "This is very normal. Everyone has the heart to fear the strong."


    Cheng Chen also didn''t take this matter to heart. If he said Lin Xing was the Grand Preceptor of the Heavenly Cauldron, he wouldn''t believe it even if he was beaten to death.

 C242

    "Big brother, your external injuries are quite easy to deal with. The key is that your soul has been severely injured, and if you don''t recover quickly, you might injure your Tao Foundation, and the consequences will be unimaginable. I know that there''s a shop in Qilin Mountain that specializes in selling soul medicine, and I''ll go and buy it for you right now."


    Cheng Chen''s heart ached when she saw her brother Cheng Chen like this. She turned around and was about to leave without a shred of hesitation.


    "I''ll go with you." "Follow me!" Lin Xing ordered as he followed.


    When he heard that Qilin Mountain was selling soul medicine, he was greatly moved and joy welled up in his heart. His soul had also suffered a heavy injury. If he didn''t recover as soon as possible, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    Once the soul was damaged, it would be a fatal danger. It would be unable to fuse with the world and could only stop at the realm of domain for life. If one did not receive the baptism of heaven and earth, the transcendent would be out of reach.


    "Hold on."


    Cheng Chen called out to them just as they turned around and took two steps.


    He looked at Cheng Chen with eyes full of love, and said softly, "Little sister, my soul injury can be delayed for a while longer, so don''t worry, you don''t have to risk your life for me. I heard that Constellation Mountain has already started to send troops against Qilin Mountain, and Qilin Mountain is now a chaotic battlefield with dangers lurking everywhere, so I won''t agree to go. As for buying soul medicine, you can think of another way."


    "Big brother, I know, but I have to go. You are the hope of our Cheng family, nothing must happen to you." Cheng Chen said decisively.


    "Constellation Mountain against Qilin Mountain?"


    Lin Qi was suddenly shocked. Although he did not know what kind of place Qilin Mountain was, the name ''Constellation Mountain'' had long since been engraved in his mind.


    Constellation Mountain was ranked third on the Sect Rankings. It was a Sect Leader Sect that possessed a dragon head weapon and was a true ruler of the Heaven''s End Earth.


    A sect with a powerful head, moving troops against an unknown Qilin Mountain? Isn''t this making too much of a fuss?


    After all, there weren''t any Qilin Mountain figures on the sects'' ranking board.


    Cheng Chen saw his doubt, and turned around to explain to him, "Big brother Lin Qi, you just arrived at our Heavenly Jue Great Land, so you might not be very clear about Qilin Mountain. The forces on the sect rankings are not complete, and at the very least, Qilin Mountain is not listed on the sect rankings because no one in the Heavenly Jue Great Land has ever truly acknowledged that it is there. It is also a famous place for clan culprits to seek refuge in the Heavenly Jue Land. Furthermore, Qi Lin mountain is outstanding, there are many hidden talents, and their overall strength can be ranked in the top ten of the sect rankings. Furthermore, there is also that mysterious Qilin Group of Elders, which adds a hint of mysteriousness to it. "


    "Therefore, even if the Dragon Head Sect were to make a move, it wouldn''t be that easy to reclaim. 200 years ago, even the personal command of the Constellation Mountain''s High Lord was unable to wipe out Qi Lin Mountain."


    "So that''s how it is." Lin Qi nodded his head.


    He finally understood that Qilin Mountain''s position in the Heavenly Jue Great Land was similar to Black Wind Mountain in the Azure Silver Country.


    "Constellation Mountain has already dispatched many troops to the Qilin Mountain, and a great war is imminent. Right now, that place is very dangerous, so I definitely won''t allow you to go there." Cheng Chen said with a weak but decisive tone.


    "Big brother, you know my personality very well. Since I''ve decided, even you can''t stop me. I can always listen to you, but not this matter." Cheng Chen''s beautiful eyes were looking forward with a heavy expression.


    I have just returned from the Heavenly Cauldron and Master knows about my injuries, so he is also prepared to send people to help me search for the soul medicine. Tomorrow, I will have him arrange for three people to go with you to go to the Qilin Mountain and will also be able to protect you guys. "


    Cheng Chen thought for a moment before nodding his head in agreement. Turning around, he bade farewell to Cheng Chen and led Lin Ming to a cave.


    This cave was a lot smaller than the one Ji Chen had used, but overall, there wasn''t much difference.


    After settling him down, Cheng Chen went back to take care of Cheng Chen.


    Lin Xing sat on the stone bed. As the curtain of night gradually covered the room, two bright flames automatically lit up the cave.


    Lin Xing sat down like a monk and began to practice the [Star Shifting Technique].


    Right now, most of his external injuries were already healed. He no longer needed to take elixirs, and he could also slowly heal them with the Star Shifting Technique.


    The Stars Shifting Art was a divine body tempering technique that had a self-healing function.


    A bit of starlight poured down from the heavens. The mountains were surrounded by it, spacious and deep. The mood was deep and profound, and the scenery was relaxing and refreshing.


    With a gentle breeze, he turned a corner. The starlight was attracted to Lin Qi, moving slowly outside his body like a living creature, and then entered his body through his pores.


    After cultivating for a long time, the quality of his body had changed. It was as if he had been reborn, and his temperament had also changed.


    Especially when he used his soul, his body would emit dazzling golden light, as if he was wearing a layer of armor that protected every part of his body.


    In the latter half of the night, he suddenly wrinkled his brow and felt a strange feeling coming from the soul cave.


    He immediately dispersed his power, and after a moment of thought, he took out an item from his soul cave.


    It was a golden jade pendant that was suffused with a golden glow and was vaguely surrounded by immortal energy. On it was carved the word "Emperor".


    The word ''emperor'' revealed an indescribable majestic atmosphere. It was truly like an emperor, dispersing all of the emperor''s aura. It made people unable to help themselves from admiring it.


    And this was only a jade pendant. It could be imagined just how high the master of this pendant was.

 C243

    This jade pendant was something that Lin Ming had obtained by chance when he first entered the Heavenly Cauldron. It had always been kept as a small accessory in the soul cave and had always been very quiet.


    But tonight, something strange happened. The word "emperor" emitted a golden light, and it seemed ready to move, as if it wanted to break out of its body, as if it had some guidance.


    Lin Qi pondered for a long time before raising his head to look outside the cave.


    After a long while, he relaxed his tightly furrowed brows and put the jade pendant back into his soul cave, no longer bothering with this matter.


    Then, he continued to practice the Art of Shifting Star.


    The next day, around noon, Cheng Chen came to tell him that Uncle Qian had sent news from the Dai Family.


    After they left, in order to dispel the misunderstanding between him and the Dai Family, Uncle Qian specially expressed his goodwill towards her and helped Dai Heng to attack the old witch together. The old witch was defeated and escaped with serious injuries.


    Afterwards, Uncle Qian took out a large amount of resources to compensate the Dai Family. He hoped that Dai Heng would be able to overturn the matter of Lin Xing killing Dai Feng.


    Dai Heng agreed. However, the people of the Gui Spirit Sect, led by Chen Xian''s master, did not buy it. They had already sent out wanted orders to Lin Xing, demanding that he repay them with his life.


    As a Divine Arts Sect, the Gui Spirit God Sect had its own pride. Lin Xing, on the other hand, did not care about beauty at all as he killed one of their highly regarded inner sect disciples with a single sword strike. He had already seriously challenged the dignity of the Gui Spirit Sect.


    The attitude of the Gui Spirit Sect was decisive, and Uncle Qian did not leave. As the Cheng family that had eight hundred thousand li of territory, he would absolutely not dare to offend them.


    "Big brother Lin Qi, you accidentally killed him to save me. "Don''t worry. If the Gui Spirit God Sect wants to touch you, they will have to step over my dead body first." Cheng Chen bit her lips.


    Lin Qi said, "I didn''t kill him because he accidentally made a mistake."


    "But big brother Lin Xing, don''t you know that Dai Feng is a disciple of the Gui Spirit Sect?" The strength of the Gui Spirit Sect is something that even your Gate of Heavenly Mystery can''t compare to. " Cheng Chen was stunned.


    "In my eyes, he has no background to speak of. If he wants to touch my savior, then he must have the will to die."


    Cheng Chen was silent. She held Lin Xing''s hand and gently stroked it. Other than saying thank you, she could not say anything else.


    "Right, what''s wrong with the old witch? What kind of enmity does he have with Dai Heng? " Lin Xing asked.


    "Fifty years ago, there was no Dai Clan as a soldier on the land of Tianyue, the territory that Dai Heng is currently sitting on was then all owned by the Yao Clan, and the old witch''s original name was Yao Shu, originally the direct daughter of the Yao Clan Patriarch. Back then, Dai Heng was merely a guard by her side, but Dai Heng was favored by an immortal of the Nine Yang Palace, and he was taken in as a direct disciple by their sect. Cheng Chen recounted.


    "So that''s how it is."


    Lin Qi sighed. Fifty years ago, there was a woman crying beside the corpse of her loved one. A middle-aged man holding a bloody blade had slaughtered her loved one under the woman''s despairing gaze.


    As for why there would be animosity between the two of them, perhaps no one would know.


    This was a bad fate, a tortuous love and hate feud.


    Perhaps both of them regretted knowing each other. Even Dai Heng might not necessarily be willing to witness such a sight. He could only sigh coldly and helplessly before following the wind into the distance.


    After a long while, Cheng Chen left and Lin Xing continued to practice the Art of Shifting Star.


    Not long after, the sun had set again, and night once more shrouded the land.


    During the latter half of the night, Lin Xing furrowed his brows and took out the ''imperial'' jade pendant from his soul cave. He was extremely surprised.


    He had been in the Heaven Mending Sect for two days, and during the latter half of the night, the jade pendant would make some unusual movements. It was the same as last night and the same thing would happen tonight.


    Unable to suppress his curiosity any longer, he slowly stood up and followed the golden light out of the cave.


    Because it was the latter half of the night, the mountains were quiet and it was hard to find anyone.


    Occasionally, there would be disciples patrolling the mountain. Lin Xing would restrain his aura and hide somewhere, waiting for them to leave before coming out again.


    The Heaven Mending Sect had a complete sect protection formation, especially for some special places like the back mountain, Scripture Pavilion, and Weapon Hall ¡­ The surrounding area was covered with even more restrictive spells.


    The place where Lin Qi was headed for was the back mountain. As a result, he had no choice but to destroy his illusions and search for the hidden restrictions in the void.


    As soon as the Fake Destruction Spell was activated, tiny beams of light appeared in front of him. Electricity flowed on them, fusing with the void.


    Lin Xing was unobstructed as he arrived at the back mountain of the Heaven Mending Sect.


    In the end, his steps stopped in front of a sculpture made of fine iron. He gazed upwards for a while, and his expression couldn''t help but change.

 C244

    The wasteland was overgrown, and every blade of grass was two meters tall. It was extremely desolate, and it was obvious that very few people had come here.


    The center of the wilderness was covered in black marble. It looked like a small platform. There was a statue which was about 20 meters tall. Its clothing was old and it had an ancient smell to it.


    The statue was made of fine iron, and it was a woman. She had a beautiful face, and her charm hid her depth. Her eyes were round and lifelike, as if she were a living person.


    Lin Xing looked up at the statue, which seemed to be looking down at him.


    It really was just like a real woman with flesh and blood staring at him.


    Arriving here, the golden light on the jade pendant pulsed even more intensely, as if it could burst out at any time. Lin Xing did not need to guess to know that the jade pendant and the real body of the statue were inextricably linked.


    "The statue in front of you is the legendary Goddess Nourishment."


    Suddenly, a woman''s voice sounded from behind Lin Qi, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. He turned his hand and kept the jade pendant into his soul hole, then turned around to look at the owner of the voice.


    She did not have her hair tied up, and her long black hair flowed like a river on top of a dark blue coat. Her originally simple clothes made her look extremely beautiful, and that devastating beauty almost made Lin Xing feel scared. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.


    She was light and graceful, and she walked slowly.


    Even with Lin Qi''s temperament, he did not feel entranced by her beauty. After calming down a bit, his heart jolted again.


    He''d just noticed that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn''t see through this woman''s cultivation.


    His soul force spread out. With just a slight touch, the woman''s body seemed to have an invisible force that bounced his soul force back.


    "Replenishing Goddess?" Lin Qi''s eyes slightly trembled. Although he had never heard of this name before, just from this reputation alone, it seemed like it was not something ordinary.


    "The Heaven Mending Goddess is the founder of our Heaven Mending Sect. You are an outsider who came to the Heavenly Pursuit Land because of chaotic space. It is not surprising that you do not know about this." The beautiful woman said indifferently.


    However, when he heard what was said, he couldn''t help but feel deeply shocked. The fact that this woman before him was able to discover his origins without anyone noticing really surprised him.


    He guessed that the woman could have been the result of the trauma to his soul.


    After all, his condition was the same as Cheng Chen''s. After contemplating for a moment, he came to a realization.


    What shocked him the most was that the peerless beauty could see through his soul with a single glance. This was truly too terrifying.


    Thinking of this, Lin Qi''s heart began to beat faster, his nerves taut.


    "Not even two hundred years after the Heaven Mending Sect was founded, she left with a Flying Immortal disciple, never to be seen again. Later on, our sect sent out experts to search for her, but they all failed to find anything. Even the current Heaven Mending Sect''s sect head has been gone for three years, and has never returned." The beautiful woman sighed softly. She looked up at the statue, her eyes filled with bitterness.


    Flying Immortal!


    This was the second time that Lin Xing had heard this name. If he remembered correctly, this brat, Liang, was a Flying Immortal.


    "Since the Heaven Mending Goddess has already established the Heaven Mending Sect and has left behind a rule here, why must the people in the future rely on the legacy she left behind to spread around? Why must all the generations send people to look for her? This junior believes that if the Goddess wants to return, she will definitely do so one day. " Lin Xing asked in confusion.


    Back then, the Heaven Mending Sect was recognized as the number one sect in the Heaven Mending Sect, and even the Ghost God Mountain could only be considered as number two. But when the Heaven Mending Sect left, not only did it take away a large number of experts, it also took away her dragon head weapon. After the baptism, the Heaven Mending Sect gradually became weaker, and was now pushed out of the top ten. The beautiful woman complained.


    "You took it? "Where to?" Lin Xing asked.


    The woman shook her head and replied, "The Goddess said that she took that group of experts and went to replenish the sky."


    Heaven Mending?


    Lin Xing was speechless and shocked.


    As for the Ghost God Mountain that the woman mentioned, Lin Xing naturally knew that this was the sect that ranked first on the sect rankings.


    It was said that the cultivation of the Ghost God Mountain was rather special. Divine Arts and the Underworld Sect coexisted, and it was both right and wrong. Everyone had to cultivate two different powers, divine power and nether energy at the same time.


    At this time, Lin Qi was also a bit worried. When the woman had just appeared, he had already kept the jade pendant. He wondered if she had noticed.


    That jade pendant was not simple, at least for the Heaven Mending Sect, it was extremely important. They could use it to find the Heaven Mending Goddess.


    "Are you Lin Xing?" The Grand Preceptor in the Heavenly Cauldron? "


    The peerless beauty''s words were astounding and nearly scared Lin Xing out of his wits.


    "How do you know?" Lin Xing was still calm as he asked.


    "Qin Xiao told me that her grandmother was an old friend of mine and that I had just returned to the sect from her home. She told me a lot of things about you." The beautiful woman said.


    Lin Qi was stunned, and he became increasingly frightened. In front of her, even his soul was trembling.


    He had once heard Qin Xiao say that the place where she lived was incomparably far from the Heaven''s End Earth. Even if it was an elder in the clan, it would still take her 500 years to reach it.


    Furthermore, there were teleportation arrays in the middle of the two routes, but they were not directly connected to each other. If one wanted to use the teleportation arrays to reach that place, it would require a great deal of effort.


    And the beautiful girl said the word ''come back'' so easily?


    "If Xiao''er knew that you were here, she would definitely be very happy. I can see that she really likes you. Do you want to see her?" The beautiful woman said.


    Lin Qi immediately shook his head like a rattle. He absolutely believed that as long as he said that he would be able to meet her, within three days, the peerless beauty would be able to bring Qin Xiao completely to him. That scene was even more fake than a dream.


    "Wait a little longer, I still need to develop a little longer. You should know that I have always been very imposing in front of her. I don''t want her to see me in such a pathetic state." Lin Xing said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.


    "Alright, that''s up to you." The beautiful woman said indifferently. Then, she turned around and gracefully walked away. Not long later, she disappeared from Lin Qi''s line of sight.


    "Since you possess the Emperor Jade Pendant, it means that you are fated to be with the Goddess. The Goddess'' legacy is hidden in the statue, so you can meditate on it by yourself."


    After the beautiful woman had completely disappeared from sight, a faint, scattered voice rang out.


    Hearing this, Lin Xing''s mind shook as he took out the jade ornament from his soul cave. Following the guidance of the golden light, his soul force circled around the statue before seeping into an unknown space.

 C245

    This was another space of the soul, a place that seemed to be formed by laws. However, it was different from the dark space of the sky. There was a sun hanging here, and as far as the eye could see, the horizon was as vast as a dragon.


    It was a simple and unadorned statue, but it had its own universe inside. With the golden light as the guide, Lin Xing''s mind rushed into this place.


    Before long, the sun had set and a bright moon slowly rose into the sky. It hung high in the sky, pure and unrestrained.


    But not long after, the moon disappeared and the sun rose again.


    It was as if a day and a night had passed in the blink of an eye.


    In the outside world, only about half the time for a cup of tea had passed.


    Lin Qi was shocked. This soul space was actually so much higher level than the Hidden Sky Space. Inside it were the legendary rules of space and time.


    Every year, in the outside world.


    This was a relatively perfect space. If there were other rules added in, it wouldn''t be an exaggeration to say that even if a person was placed in there, they would still be able to live perfectly and perfectly.


    With just this, this soul space could be regarded as a treasure of the sect, and its value was no less than the dragon head''s weapon.


    Lin Xing had a bold idea. After he bought the soul medicine from the Qilin Mountain, he could use his soul to leave his body and enter this space to restore his soul. This would greatly shorten the time to his soul and even allow the soul in the outside world to remain intact for a quarter of an hour.


    Afterwards, he searched the space with his mind, and under the guidance of the golden light, he searched through inch by inch. Finally, when dawn arrived in the outside world, he obtained a symbol, an extremely simple symbol.


    The character was a ''seep'' character. It was plain and unadorned, as if it was made out of special white jade. There was a dense immortal aura lingering around it, but it lacked divinity.


    The rune glowed with a faint white light. Lin Qi examined it closely, but he couldn''t figure out what it was. However, he could vaguely see that inside the rune, there seemed to be immortals flying around.


    Since it was something that appeared in the goddess'' soul cave, then it must be unusual. Lin Xing carefully put it away and placed it in the soul cave.


    Then, he withdrew his consciousness from that soul space. At the same time, his physical body opened his eyes.


    Looking at the rising sun in the east, he pursed his lips and walked out of the back mountain.


    If he had the chance, he would come back in the future. There were many secrets in this soul space, which were very unusual.


    When he arrived at the cave he lived in, the sun had already risen and the sky had begun to brighten. Not long after he laid down, Cheng Chen came to find him.


    "Big brother Lin Xing, big brother has already found three helpers for us, can we set off now?" Cheng Chen said.


    "Alright." Lin Qi quickly got up from the stone bed.


    In the end, he sighed and said, "Big Brother Lin, Qi Lin Mountain is too dangerous right now. Moreover, this matter has nothing to do with you, so there is no need for you to take the risk."


    "It''s fine, I was just thinking of taking this opportunity to see the world." Lin Xing smiled.


    "Alright then."


    Hearing that, Cheng Chen did not try to persuade him anymore. Turning around, he walked out of the cave and Lin Xing immediately followed.


    The residence of Cheng Chen was right next to him, and he had barely taken two steps when he arrived.


    At this moment, besides Cheng Chen, there were three more people inside the cave. They were a young woman and two young men.


    Both of them were disciples of major sects, so there was no need to mention their looks and auras. However, their cultivation levels were not high, and both of the young men had the strength of the peak of the Void Calamity Realm, while the young and beautiful woman had the strength of the Heaven Sting Stellar Mountain Realm.


    "Hmm? Is this person coming with us? " When the beautiful woman saw Lin Xing walk in, she turned her head to ask Cheng Chen with a surprised expression.


    "Yes, senior sister Mu Hui. He is Lin Xing from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. He once helped my sister and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about the local customs and customs of the land." Cheng Chen glanced at Lin Qi and replied to the beautiful woman.


    "Oh. If something happens, I can only try my best to help him. However, when my school''s disciple is unable to protect himself, I will not choose to first go save him. " Mu Hui said.


    "Of course." Cheng Chen nodded.


    The two youths beside him only glanced at Lin Qi for a moment before shifting their gazes away. They did not utter a single word of ridicule, nor did they take him to heart, completely ignoring him.


    At this time, Cheng Chen said guiltily, "Sister Mu Hui and the two Junior Brothers, it has been hard on you two. For me, you guys went to the Qilin Mountain. I don''t even know how to thank you."


    Ah, junior brother, what are you saying? You are currently one of the few Heavenly Cauldron freaks in the sect, and in the future you will become a great Honored Warrior, and it is our honor to serve you. Also, buying soul medicine for you this time is also part of the sect''s mission. Mu Hui smiled.


    Hearing that, Cheng Chen bitterly smiled, turned his hand, took out ten top quality spirit crystals from the soul hole, and gave it to Cheng Chen.


    "These are the top grade spirit crystals that I obtained from the Heavenly Cauldron. They are priceless in our Heavenly Pursuit Continent. These ten top grade spirit crystals are enough to buy a lot of soul medicines." Cheng Chen said to Cheng Chen.


    At the same time, Mu Hui was no exception. His eyes shone with a golden light as he looked at the top quality spirit crystal with surprise.


    Cheng Chen solemnly received it. Then, under Mu Hui''s lead, the five of them began rushing towards Qilin Mountain.

 C246

    Qilin Mountain. Rumor has it that it was a mountain range formed by the corpse of a Qilin God Beast.


    Although the mountain range was only a million li wide, it was the most chaotic place in the Heaven''s End Great Land.


    Now, Constellation Mountain was once again pressing down heavily on the land, causing this mountain range to become even more chaotic. There were beacons everywhere.


    After two days of endless travel, Mu Hui finally arrived at this place with Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the other three people.


    Every five miles, there was a Qilin Stone Statue standing on the outermost piece of land of the Qilin Mountain. It surrounded the entire mountain range, as if it was protecting something within the mountain range.


    After walking for a long time, Lin Xing saw five meter tall Qilin carvings pass by him one after another. These carvings'' surfaces were mottled with rust and they were filled with an ancient aura.


    He raised his head and looked at the mountain range in the distance. The longer he looked, the thicker he felt!


    After going deeper for a long time, when they arrived at a forest, there was a young man who had already stood there, waiting for them to arrive.


    The youth was wearing a straw hat and holding a blade of grass in his mouth. He was leaning against an ancient tree as he stood, looking rather playful. When he saw Mu Hui and the others walk over, he spat out the grass in his mouth.


    "Wei Yi, our deep friendship is not in vain. You have indeed been waiting for me for a long time."


    Looking at the young man in the straw hat, Mu Hui was slightly happy as he walked towards him quickly.


    "Mu Hui, I came here to wait for you as soon as I received your letter. I know what you''re planning. Don''t say any more polite words. Take the money first."


    The youngster named Wei Yi was not polite in the slightest. He did not have the mood to reminisce about the past with Mu Hui and immediately asked for money.


    Mu Hui rolled his eyes and said snappily, "The Dark Void Valley hasn''t even seen us yet and you''re asking me for money. How could there be such a reason in this world? We can discuss the price when you bring us to the Dark Void Valley."


    "Big Sister Mu Hui, please look at the situation. My Qilin Mountain is currently in chaos, and the outer regions have already been sealed off by the heavy soldiers of Constellation Mountain. I''ve already risked my life by coming here to welcome you all, and moreover, the journey to Dark Void Valley might be filled with dangers. If you don''t pay first, you can find whoever you want."


    Mu Hui wiped his sweat away and looked embarrassed. He exchanged a glance with Cheng Chen.


    Cheng Chen pursed her lips and nodded. Mu Hui then said, "Tell me, how much is the transaction?"


    The Dark Void Valley was the place where they bought the soul medicine. However, even in the Qilin Mountain, the Dark Yin Valley was extremely mysterious. For outsiders like them, without anyone to guide them, they would simply not be able to find it.


    Since they had a request, Mu Hui and Cheng Chen could not refuse. They could only agree to pay first.


    "I heard that Cheng Chen brought back a lot of top grade spirit crystals from the Heavenly Cauldron. How about this, this deal will be sold for two top grade spirit crystals ¡­" Wei Yi sized them up as he spoke with a beaming smile.


    However, before he could even finish his sentence, he heard Mu Hui''s angry roar, "Impossible, a single top grade spirit crystal is impossible. We can exchange it for something else."


    Upon hearing Wei Yi''s words, the complexions of Cheng Chen and the two Heaven Mending Sect disciples immediately darkened.


    Only Lin Xing had an extremely strange expression. Was a top grade spirit crystal that valuable?


    There were still many soul holes in his body.


    However, he understood that wealth did not reveal itself. Even though he had piled the top grade spirit crystals into a mountain, he did not have the intention to help out with it.


    "Mu Hui, look at your personality. You haven''t changed at all. You''re so stingy."


    Wei Yi rolled his eyes and said: "Two pieces of top grade spirit crystals. If you''re not willing to take them out, then I''m powerless to help."


    Saying so, he turned around and left without a trace of hesitation.


    "Hold on."


    As it was related to Cheng Chen''s soul being damaged, Cheng Chen could no longer endure. With a panicked expression, she called out to stop him.


    Wei Yi turned and looked at her. Although he did not show it on the surface, he was overjoyed in his heart.


    "I''ll give it to you." Cheng Chen bit her lips and retrieved two top grade spirit crystals from her soul hole before tossing them over to Wei Yi.


    Mu Hui and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect sighed in envy but could not say anything.


    Lin Xing was also thinking the same thing. After all, this was a reasonable transaction.


    Wei Yi received it with one hand as he grinned and said, "Come with me."


    As he spoke, he was the first to turn and leave.


    Mu Hui and Lin Xing immediately followed.


    Wei Yi and Mu Hui were both at the Star Mountain Realm. Mu Hui wanted to bring them into the air and walk them quickly and conveniently, but Wei Yi disagreed. He said that they would attract too much attention and that they would easily attract enemies.


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows and asked, "Earlier, you said that there would be dangers on the way to the Dark Void Valley. I wonder what kind of dangers it is?"


    Wei Yi glanced at him, then explained: "Constellation Mountain has officially declared war on our Qilin Mountain, but they did not send their sect''s experts to slaughter us first. Instead, they ordered a group of elites from the younger generation to enter the Qilin Mountain, treating this place as a battlefield for trial, and threatened to defeat all of our young elites in the Qilin Mountain. "The upper echelons of the two mountains are strictly prohibited from interfering."


    His tone paused for a moment before he asked, "We are unicorns. You should at least know that we have a Qilin List, right?"


    "That''s to be expected. The Qilin List contains all the geniuses of your Qilin Hall''s younger generation. As far as I know, Wei Yi seems to be ranked twelfth on the list." Mu Hui said.


    "Yes, I am ranked twelfth. But what I want to say is, Constellation Mountain is a dragon-headed sect, and its disciples are very powerful. I think the people from the Heaven Mending Sect should know better than I do that Cao An, who is ranked fifth on the Qilin list, was killed by an outstanding disciple of Constellation Mountain yesterday.

 C247

    "What? Cao An, ranked fifth, was killed?"


    Wei Yi''s words were astonishing, almost sending Cheng Chen and the two Heaven Mending Sect souls flying in fright.


    Even Mu Hui could not keep his composure. He looked aghast.


    Naturally, they had heard of Cao An''s reputation before. He was the most outstanding person among the younger generation of the Qilin Mountain. However, he was killed by the disciples of the Constellation Mountain yesterday.


    Although it was not surprising, when he heard that Cao An had fallen so easily, he could not help but feel astonished.


    Even though Lin Xing had never heard of Cao An, he could tell from Wei Yi''s cultivation that he was only ranked twelfth on the Qilin list. As for how powerful Cao An, who was ranked fifth, was, naturally, someone who didn''t need to be overly introduced.


    Thinking of this, he was equally shocked.


    "Cao An is the head disciple of the Soul Formation Sect, one of the three Qilin Sects. If he is killed by the disciples of the Constellation Mountain, won''t the Soul Formation Sect be furious?" Mu Hui asked.


    On the way here, Cheng Chen had told Lin Qi about the structure of the Qilin Mountain clearly.


    According to Cheng Chen, Qilin Mountain was a place filled with countless sects. The situation was complicated and complicated, but only three great sects stood out from the crowd and controlled all the regions of Qilin Mountain. The Nascent Soul Sect was one of them.


    As for the top of the three sects, there was the legendary and mysterious Qilin Elder Group.


    To put it bluntly, in the Qilin Mountain, the Qilin Elder Group was the heavens while the three Qilin Sects were the earth. All the other powers had to rely on the heaven and earth in order to survive in the Qilin Mountain.


    "Humph, so what if we kill him? This is a temporary agreement between Constellation Mountain and the Qilin Elder Group. In a battle between the younger generation, the older generation is not allowed to interfere. I heard that disciples of Constellation Mountain chased Cao An all the way to the Soul Formation Sect before killing him. Wei Yi sighed.


    "disciples of Constellation Mountain, you really bully people."


    To kill Cao An in front of all his elders and juniors, who would be furious if they heard that he had been brutally poisoned?


    "Who knows. I suspect that the route to the Yin Void Valley might have led to the ambush of the disciples of Constellation Mountain. Therefore, I have decided to take you guys around to the Purple Flame Forest." Wei Yi said.


    "This won''t do. Do you want to bring us to our deaths? The Purple Flame Forest is a famed forbidden area in your Qilin Mountain. Even if you enter it with a domain realm, you may not be able to survive. "


    Hearing that, Mu Hui roared, while Cheng Chen and Lin Xing also turned ashen.


    They were viewed as the number one forbidden area of Qilin Mountain. Even if they were in the Domain Realm, it would still be difficult for them to leave this place alive. Not to mention that they had four people at the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    "If you don''t agree, then I can return the two top quality spirit crystals to you. It''s still the same, go find whoever you want. I''d rather go to the Purple Flame Forest than meet the disciples of Constellation Mountain."


    They were angry, and Wei Yi was even angrier. His face was flushed red, and he was afraid that the disciples of Constellation Mountain would go down to their bones as well.


    Mu Hui and Cheng Chen were silent, but they still didn''t agree, so they stopped and didn''t leave.


    Seeing this, Wei Yi slowed his tone and comforted them, "You may not know this but Dark Void Valley is actually close to the Purple Flame Forest, and if we go there, we will only pass through the outskirts of the Purple Flame Forest. As long as you listen to me, there will be no danger at all. After all, you and I are both grasshoppers on the same rope, so I won''t take my own life as a joke. "


    Mu Hui and Cheng Chen looked at each other. The latter thought for a long time and finally nodded.


    "Alright then, I''ll follow your arrangements." Mu Hui looked at Wei Yi.


    "That''s right, I guarantee your safety." Wei Yi laughed as he continued walking ahead.


    Four hours later, the group of people arrived at the Purple Flame Forest that Wei Yi had spoken of.


    The Purple Flame Forest was no different from an ordinary forest, but what was strange was that the vegetation here was emitting a red light, and every single vegetation seemed to grow within the flames. Moreover, the further one looked, the brighter the flames became.


    The Purple Flame Forest was notorious for its ferocity. No one dared to be careless. As they walked in, they were fully focused. They released their soul force to observe their surroundings.


    Lin Xing was also secretly fiddling with his lime. When he walked in here, he immediately noticed that something was amiss.


    The wind here felt weird. There wasn''t even a trace of hot air. On the contrary, it felt extremely cold, as though it could blow into a person''s soul. The zhenqi outside the body couldn''t resist it at all, and he couldn''t help but shiver.


    He swept a glance at the others and discovered that Wei Yi and Mu Hui were still alright. However, Cheng Chen and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect were trembling and their lips had turned purple.


    Phew...


    All of a sudden, the chilliness from the wind intensified and expanded. Cheng Chen and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect seemed to float into the air.


    At the same time, a silhouette descended from the sky, bringing with it an ice-cold and tyrannical power as it charged towards them.

 C248

    Lin Xing was the first to notice that something was wrong. His expression changed and he immediately pulled Cheng Chen''s right arm, subconsciously retreating quickly.


    At the same time, Mu Hui and Wei Yi also reacted, blasting the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect, who still had no idea what was going on, away from that place.


    BOOM!


    The next moment, a loud sound rang out and shook everyone''s eardrums. A deep crater was formed on the spot, and in the midst of the dust and dust, a five meter tall, sturdy figure, whose entire body glowed with red light, slowly stood up.


    "Hurry up!"


    Upon seeing that muscular figure, Wei Yi''s explosive shout jolted the others awake before they hurriedly dashed forward.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing and Mu Hui immediately followed.


    Boom ¡­


    However, that burly man was too quick. He leapt into the air and appeared in front of them, blocking their path.


    Lin Qi looked over and saw a five meter tall figure. His entire body was bathed in red light, and it looked like a moving flame. A vicious aura emanated from him, along with a bone-piercing coldness.


    Lin Xing frowned as he sensed a familiar aura.


    "Prison corpse!"


    He thought for a while and suddenly exclaimed in shock. That figure was lifeless without a trace of life, and the aura it gave off was exactly the same as the Prison Corpse''s in Black Wind Mountain back then.


    "This is a mutated spirit level corpse, it only has the strength of the Star Mountain Realm. It''s okay, okay." Wei Yi clearly sensed the undulations around the corpse and let out a long breath.


    When Mu Hui heard this, he checked the strength of the Prison Corpse and finally let out a sigh of relief.


    The spirit rank Prison Corpse only had the strength of the Heavenly Hunting Star Mountain. However, they had two Star rank warriors, so it was not a problem to defeat it.


    However, this was not the outside world. This was the infamous Purple Flame Forest. Even if they could defeat it, they wouldn''t dare to do so, lest they attract other terrifying monsters.


    With this thought, Mu Hui no longer hesitated. He activated his Divine Arts and rushed towards the Prison Corpse in front of him.


    It was a divine art that could produce strange phenomena. A large golden light emerged from Mu Hui''s body and surrounded her. The light was brighter than the light on the corpse, like a small sun.


    Every single fist and every palm strike contained a special effect. Brilliant light shot in all directions. Furthermore, it also emitted clanging sounds.


    "Let''s go! "Mu Hui has his own ways to get rid of it."


    Wei Yi seized the opportunity and chose not to walk up to help. Instead, he wanted to take Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the rest away first.


    However, how could Cheng Chen and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect listen to his orders? Especially the two disciples, they looked at each other and immediately rushed over to help Mu Hui attack the Prison Corpse.


    The Prison Corpse, whose body glowed red, was obviously stronger than Mu Hui. It had been suppressing her. If it weren''t for the amazing defensive power of her Golden Light Divine Technique, it probably wouldn''t have been able to withstand it.


    The two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect weren''t of much use. They were sent flying in less than two rounds and rolled far away. They had sustained light injuries on the outside of their bodies.


    Upon seeing this scene, Cheng Chen grew anxious. Stomping his feet, he furiously roared at Wei Yi: "Could it be that you''ve always been planning to watch this show? "This is the Purple Flame Forest. None of us will be able to survive if we make a scene."


    Wei Yi curled his lips into a smile as he said, "I only agreed to bring you all to Dark Void Valley, but I never said that I would help you all if you met with danger on the road, not to mention it''s just a Spirit Level Prison Corpse. If you guys don''t even have that little ability, then coming to Qilin Mountain is simply suicide."


    "Humph, what do you want to do?" Cheng Chen couldn''t help but ask in a deep voice, knowing that there was a hidden meaning behind his words.


    "Sure, it''s not impossible for you to ask for my help. This time, it''s cheaper, one top quality spirit crystal is enough." Wei Yi glanced at Cheng Chen and chuckled.


    "You!"


    Cheng Chen''s breath deflated and he felt a slight headache coming on. He hadn''t even arrived at Dark Void Valley when he was about to plant three top grade spirit crystals in Wei Yi''s hands. His lungs were convulsing from the anger.


    After struggling for a moment and sighing twice, he prepared to take out the top quality spirit crystal from the soul hole.


    Wei Yi smiled at her movements, but the next moment, his smile froze.


    Lin Xing, who was standing beside Cheng Chen, pressed down on Cheng Chen''s right hand that was about to take out the top grade spirit crystal, then shook his head at her.


    Then, Lin Xing took out a celestial sword and rushed towards the Prison Corpse.


    "Hmph, overestimating yourself."


    Seeing this, Wei Yi was so angry that his balls turned green. The top grade spirit crystal in his hands flew away, and he ruthlessly spat at Lin Ming''s back.


    Cheng Chen rolled her eyes at him.


    In the process of Lin Xing rushing towards the Prison Corpse, he had already sent out two sword strikes into the air. The third sword attack instantly increased its power, and when it was close to the Prison Corpse, it caught the Prison Corpse off guard.


    CHI *


    As expected, the third sword strike landed on the corpse''s head, creating a series of fiery sparks as if it was chopping down on steel. The immortal sword couldn''t break through it, and its body was as thick as steel.


    However, the prison corpse also felt the pain. A large portion of the red light on his head disappeared and his body flew out, knocking over an ancient tree.


    Lin Xing''s thunderous attack instantly changed the situation, making Mu Hui and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect ecstatic. They then launched a powerful attack towards the corpse of the prison.


    The Prison Corpse roared and punched the ground. Suddenly, beams of red light shot out from under his fist. Not to mention the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect, even Mu Hui paled. His body that had just soared into the air was struck down by the Prison Corpse.


    Only Lin Qi used the celestial sword to completely destroy the red light and then closed in to unleash a shocking attack.

 C249

    Boom ¡­


    With the speed of lightning, Lin Xing sent out another two slashes into the air and the third slash landed on the head of the Prison Corpse.


    Sparks flew in all directions, the red light on the head had all disappeared, revealing a black head that continued to emit black smoke. At the same time, the body of the Prison Corpse flew out, knocking down an ancient tree.


    When Lin Xing''s move was revealed, everyone was stunned.


    "Sword Immortal!"


    Wei Yi''s pupils contracted. Mu Hui looked surprised. Cheng Chen and the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect were also dumbfounded.


    Even though Lin Xing was only at the Heaven Smiting Stage, sword immortals were best at fighting those who had a higher cultivation level. They could even fight against those who were at the Heaven''s Perception Realm.


    Furthermore, it was a sneak attack just now. Even with the Prison Corpse''s powerful physique, it was unable to withstand the sword in his hand.


    Puff ¡­


    Suddenly, a change occurred. The ancient tree that had been broken by the corpse suddenly shot out a red light from its mouth towards where Lin Xing was.


    Lin Qi held the red light in his hand, and the red light dissipated. One could clearly see that it was a palm-sized flying knife. Its entire body was surrounded by a blood-red halo that exuded an inexplicable evil aura.


    When they saw the red flying dagger in his hand, Mu Hui and the rest were all at a loss. Only Wei Yi''s pupils constricted as his face filled with disbelief.


    When the Prison Corpse saw the flying knife, its eyes revealed fear. It turned around and ran, not daring to stop for even a second, as if it had met its most terrifying natural enemy.


    This time, Lin Qi was greatly surprised. He could not help but carefully observe the flying knife.


    At the same time, Mu Hui, Wei Yi, Cheng Chen, and the rest all surrounded Lin Qi''s flying daggers in surprise.


    This was a divine tool, and from the surface, it didn''t seem that strange. However, it was able to scare away a Prison Corpse, obviously making it extraordinary.


    "What is this?" Cheng Chen asked.


    Lin Xing shifted his gaze to Wei Yi.


    The corners of Wei Yi''s mouth twitched, appearing extremely uneasy as he said, "Wait until we arrive at Dark Void Valley. You should ask the Valley Master yourself."


    After saying that, he turned around and left. Lin Xing and Cheng Chen looked at each other, and Mu Hui and the other two followed him.


    This time, they did not encounter any more dangers. In the end, they safely traversed through the outer regions of the Purple Flame Forest and arrived at a mountain range.


    At this moment, it was already ten in the afternoon. The golden rays of the sun reflected off the trees and grasses of the mountain forest, giving them a feeling of being clothed in a layer of gold.


    After arriving here, Wei Yi said that they were only five kilometers away from Dark Void Valley.


    When everyone heard this, their faces were filled with ecstasy.


    However, in the next moment, their ecstatic expressions froze.


    "Hello everyone, the two of us have been waiting here for a long time."


    A man''s voice came from the side, and when they looked towards the source of the voice, they saw a dignified young man standing on a tree branch. His expression was indifferent and elegant, and his bearing was graceful.


    "Constellation Mountain disciples!"


    That person''s cultivation base was impressively at the speed of the heavens. Moreover, on the left side of his clothes, there were five shining stars embroidered. These were the unique symbols of Constellation Mountain.


    At this moment, they noticed that behind a small mountain, another young man flew out. This man had a terrifying scar on his face, and it was as if he was a centipede crawling on his face. His entire body was filled with hostility.


    He narrowed his eyes for a moment before raising his head to look at Wei Yi. He licked his lips and said: "Wei Yi, 23 years old, Ten Thousand Bone Sect disciple, twelfth on the Qilin list, am I right?"


    Finished speaking, he put away the painting and looked towards Wei Yi with a venomous gaze.


    Wei Yi''s face was gloomy as he said in a stern voice, "That''s right. So it turns out that you''ve been waiting for me this entire time."


    "No, we are not waiting here for you. We are waiting at the entrance of the Dark Void Valley and specifically killing the young elites on your Qilin list."


    This time, the one who spoke was the indifferent and elegant young man. When he said the last four words, he smiled in disdain, and it was filled with a sense of ridicule.


    "Humph, if it wasn''t for our Qilin''s heart not being here, would you dare to be so arrogant!?" Wei Yi pointed at them and cursed.


    "Qilin Twin Heart? Hehe, the two of them are indeed very strong, but in front of the God Child of our Constellation Mountain, it''s still not enough. The elegant youth laughed in disdain.


    Then, their gazes landed on Lin Xing and Mu Hui. "Are you also from Qi Lin Mountain?" they asked in surprise.


    Mu Hui replied immediately, "Reporting to senior brother, we are all disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect."


    After he finished speaking, he glanced at Wei Yi helplessly with guilt in his eyes. They did not dare to offend disciples of Constellation Mountain.


    Wei Yi sighed. Naturally, he understood and did not force Mu Hui to help him.


    "Oh, so you''re a disciple of the Heaven Mending Sect. I''m a very principled person, and I only kill people from Qi Lin Mountain. The Heaven Mending Sect, on the other hand, can go unhindered." Speaking up to here, the elegant young man''s tone paused, he pointed at the knife-scarred young man and said: "But ¡­" I don''t know if he agrees with me! "


    "Haha, it''s fine if you want me to not kill you. You two girls can sleep with me and my junior brother tonight. I can guarantee that in Qilin Mountain, no one else would dare touch you." The Knifescar fellow''s face was full of ridicule.

 C250

    Mu Hui and Cheng Chen''s faces immediately darkened. It turned out that from the beginning, the two youths from Constellation Mountain never planned on letting them go.


    Don''t be arrogant just because you''re disciples of Constellation Mountain. Don''t forget, Wei Yi and I are also in the Star Mountain Realm. Moreover, we have four Heaven Smiting Realms. Mu Hui said gloomily as he wiped his sweat.


    "Ah, is that so? "Then just come at me." The elegant youth laughed in a very contemptuous manner, completely looking down on them.


    With a cold smile, he glanced at the scarred youth and said: "I''ll deal with Wei Yi, so I''ll leave those five to you. Be gentle with the men and keep the women. As for the men, kill them all ¡­"


    "Heh ¡­" The Knifescar fellow smiled sinisterly. His eyes were especially vicious as they locked on to Mu Hui and Lin Xing.


    Lin Qi sighed in his heart. From the looks of it, a bloody battle was inevitable today.


    "Mu Hui, this place is only five miles away from the Dark Void Valley. The two of us will stop them and have the four of them go to the Dark Void Valley to help. I''ve received news that the sixth ranked Qilin, Yun Die, is in the valley right now. If you call her over, the two of them will retreat without a fight." Wei Yi said to Mu Hui.


    "Alright." Mu Hui nodded and winked at Cheng Chen and Lin Xing.


    Subsequently, Mu Hui and Wei Yi summoned their divine power and nether energy and charged towards the two disciples respectively.


    The two disciples of Constellation Mountain laughed disdainfully. They looked at each other, and rushed towards the two of them.


    The four of them quickly engaged in a brawl. Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Xing led the other three to quickly rush towards the exposed gap. He was prepared to do it in one go and run to Dark Void Valley to call for reinforcements.


    As for the two Constellation Mountain disciples, they only sneered at the scene unfolding before them. However, because the attacks of Mu Hui and Wei Yi were too fierce, they chose to ignore them.


    However, after running just one mile, Lin Qi realized that something was wrong. With every step he took, his steps became heavier and heavier. There seemed to be an invisible resistance in front of him.


    Cheng Chen and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect weren''t able to keep talking. They were covered in sweat and walking with great difficulty.


    "Haha, the outer perimeter of Dark Void Valley has already been sealed by my Heavenly Artifact, so only you are allowed to enter. Even with a Domain Realm cultivation base, you are unable to break through this barrier."


    When the elegant youth saw this, a sinister smile appeared on his face.


    So that was the case. In a battle between Celestial Qi warriors, every movement was earth-shattering. Not to mention five miles, even if it was five hundred miles, one could still hear the commotion.


    At this moment, after hearing what the elegant young man said, everyone finally understood.


    "Since we can''t run away, let''s go up and fight. Let''s go help senior Mu first."


    The two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect were brave enough to help Mu Hui suppress the knife-scarred youth.


    The two disciples of Constellation Mountain were both very strong. If they fought alone, no one would be a match for them. Wei Yi and Mu Hui had been suppressed to the point where even if they used their divine arts, they wouldn''t be able to withstand it.


    Now that they had the advantage of numbers, it was time for them to unite and contribute their strength in order to end the battle quickly.


    Otherwise, if they were to attack him one by one, he would be in big trouble.


    When the two experts of the Heaven Smiting Stage joined in the battle, Mu Hui''s pressure was greatly reduced. However, the knife-scarred youth felt the pressure increase as he retreated step by step.


    "You''re courting death."


    The knife-scarred youth''s eyes were full of anger. The cold luster jumped in his eyes. He disdainfully shouted and a huge arc of lightning fell from the sky.


    The speed of the electric arcs was too fast. Even Mu Hui did not react immediately. The two disciples from the Heaven Mending Sect were shocked when they reached their heads.


    Mu Hui used the Divine Arts to dodge the attack, but the two Heaven Mending Sect disciples were not so lucky. Their bodies were charred black by the attack and they fell to the ground with serious injuries.


    The knife-scarred youth was indeed an outstanding disciple of the Constellation Mountain. His damage was too terrifying. With just one attack, he had heavily injured two experts of the Heaven Smiting Stage.


    Mu Hui''s beautiful face also paled as he pulled the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect away.


    The knife-scarred youth grunted and threw a punch at Mu Hui. It was followed by a thunderous roar.


    Puff ¡­


    In order to protect the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect, Mu Hui used the Golden Light Divine Technique to protect his body from the thunderbolts. His back was hit and he spat out a mouthful of blood.


    Cheng Chen saw this scene and immediately ran forward, intending to help.


    "You stay here and watch. I''ll go deal with him."


    Lin Xing pulled her back and pulled out an Immortal sword. His body suddenly soared into the sky and turned into a meteor as a sword light descended from the sky, aiming straight at the scarred youth''s head.


    Immortal Burying Sword Technique.


    "Sword Immortal."


    The Knifescar fellow sensed the approaching danger and immediately activated his Heavenly Source to protect himself. He looked at the sword light falling from the sky and his pupils shrank.


    His reaction was extremely fast, but compared to the Immortal Burying Sword Technique, it was still not enough. Lin Xing''s sword pierced through his Heavenly Source and stabbed into his shoulder.


    Then, Lin Qi quickly pulled out the celestial sword and quickly retreated.


    "What a fast sword, you have angered me!"


    The knife-scarred youth looked at Lin Ming, his hair standing on end, blood dripping down his shoulders. If he had not dodged in time, a bloody hole would have appeared in his head.


    Pfft!


    The knife-scarred youth was furious. He looked at Lin Qi''s figure and gnashed his teeth. His body suddenly flashed with electric currents, wrapping around his entire body as he retreated step by step.


    "Hmm? "What''s going on?"


    The Knifescar fellow was astounded. This electric current wasn''t triggered by him, but was actually used to attack him.


    "It''s you. You also want to cultivate your dragon face."


    Recovering from his daze in an instant, Zhang Xuan pointed a cold finger at Lin Xing, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

 C251

    Boom ¡­


    Just then, another bolt of lightning fell from the sky. It was still Lin Xing who had triggered the lightning bolt.


    The sudden turn of events also caused the scarred youth to become stunned.


    His tiger body trembled as he clenched his fists. Streams of lightning spread from his body, crushing all of the electricity that Lin Xing had activated.


    At the same time, Mu Hui and Lin Xing had also arrived in front of Ai Hui and unleashed a domineering attack at the same time.


    Mu Hui was bathed in the golden light, and it was as if he had transformed into a small sun. His every movement was accompanied by a blazing light, and his power could not be underestimated.


    Furthermore, Lin Xing''s third sword technique, the Sword Technique, had once slashed through the Heavenly Shou, and its power was just as formidable.


    Even if the knife-scarred youth used his Heavenly Source Protection, it was impossible for him to block it.


    Ka-cha ¡­


    The sound of bones breaking came from in front of his chest as his body flew out like a kite with its string cut. On the way, he spat out blood.


    "Ah ¡­" I swear, I''ll grind you both to dust. "


    The knife-scarred youth was furious. He shouted out repeatedly and was hit by two powerful attacks. However, he did not die. His life force was still very strong.


    However, how could Lin Qi give him a chance to catch his breath? Immediately using his sword technique, he stabbed into his throat at an absolutely tricky angle.


    Puff!


    He pulled out the Immortal''s sword, blood gushing out from the scarred youth''s neck. He glared at Lin Qi with resentment and fell to the ground. He didn''t even struggle for a second before he died.


    This scene stupefied Mu Hui, Cheng Chen, the two Heaven Mending Sect disciples, as well as Wei Yi and that elegant youth who were currently fighting with each other.


    Mu Hui was the most shocked. It seemed that she and Lin Xing had worked together to kill the knife-scarred man. In fact, she was the only one who knew that she did not put in much effort.


    She was indescribably shocked. Lin Xing''s powerful sword skill caused her heart to palpitate with fear and shock to appear in her heart.


    "Trash." The elegant youth looked at the body of the knife-scarred youth and cursed.


    Lin Xing suddenly turned to the dazed Mu Hui and said, "Go and help your two junior brothers heal their wounds. I''ll go and help Wei Yi deal with that person."


    "Yes." Mu Hui replied subconsciously with a tone full of respect.


    "Hmph. So what if you''ve killed one? None of you are my match either."


    Seeing Lin Xing rushing towards him, the elegant youth had a gloomy expression, a cold glint in his eyes, and killing intent could be seen. He did not plan to leave because of the loss of one person, instead preparing to fight again.


    In actuality, his arrogance wasn''t unreasonable. Wei Yi had only fought with him for a short period of time and his body was already covered in wounds. As for him, he was completely unscathed and as calm as ever.


    As Lin Xing approached, a ray of light shot out from the tip of his sword. He broke through his Heavenly Source and also used his sword skill.


    While the elegant youth was attacking Wei Yi, he was also dodging Wei Yi''s attacks. He quickly pulled out his finger and used two fingers to grip Lin Xing''s Immortal sword. With a shake of his palm, a large amount of Heavenly Source energy flowed through the sword and into Lin Xing.


    Lin Xing''s expression changed as he immediately took out his second Immortal sword. He did not care about the incoming Heavenly Source but wanted to fight him to the bitter end.


    Such a change was out of the elegant-looking young man''s expectations. Sword immortals were indeed too powerful. Their strange moves were hard to guard against. He had no way of dodging and could only take this attack head on.


    Puff ¡­


    The immortal sword cut into his shoulder, three inches deep. Lin Xing was also sent flying by the Heavenly Source attack. His right arm was in great pain and he didn''t even have the strength to hold the sword.


    "Ah ¡­" "What is this!?"


    Suddenly, the elegant young man cried out in fear. He felt a bone-piercing pain on his shoulder, and when he looked over, he realized that the wound was turning black. At the same time, a destructive force rushed into his body, killing him.


    He was overwhelmed with shock, and for the first time, a look of terror appeared on his face.


    Suddenly, Wei Yi''s attack arrived. His attack was just as sharp as his, and directly broke all the ribs in front of his chest.


    Miserable screams came out from the elegant youth''s mouth. He quickly used all his strength to get up from the ground. His hands formed strange incantations as he constantly chanted strange scriptures.


    Suddenly, a burst of domain power descended from the sky and landed on his body, causing his strength to increase explosively. The contrast was huge, shocking everyone.


    Above his head was a pillar of blood-colored light that continuously surged. Within it, one could vaguely see the shadow of a young man, who seemed to be on the verge of descending.


    "Constellation Mountain''s Teleportation Technique." A God Child will be teleported here very soon. " Wei Yi''s pupils constricted violently and his face was filled with terror.


    At the same time, Mu Hui ran over and asked, "Teleportation?"


    "Yes, this technique is a secret that only the Son of God is qualified to learn. Hearing his call, we can use the body of a living person to teleport the God Child who is connected to us. " Wei Yi''s voice was trembling.


    Everyone was overwhelmed with shock. What they meant was that the person who was about to be teleported over was a God Child of Constellation Mountain. If he really succeeded, then when the God Child descended, they would undoubtedly die today.


    "How can I interrupt?" Lin Qi roared as he turned to ask Wei Yi.


    "Kill him." Wei Yi''s trembling voice was filled with hostility.


    "The three of us will attack at the same time and break his domain."


    Before he finished his sentence, Lin Xing dashed over and immediately executed the third level of the Divine Sword Technique.


    Mu Hui and Wei Yi immediately followed suit. They activated all the strength within their bodies as three powerful attacks simultaneously landed onto the domain that protected the elegant youth.


    Boom ¡­


    Astonishing ripples erupted, but the domain power had only weakened a little. From this, it could be seen how powerful the God Child that was sent over was.


    Mu Hui and Wei Yi''s faces were pale as a result of this as well. Not only had they expended too much energy, they were also frightened. They took advantage of the fact that their divine child hadn''t even fully teleported over, with thoughts of fleeing already growing in their hearts.


    "Enough."


    Lin Xing gave a stuffy groan and withdrew his Immortal sword. He raised his sword, and suddenly, his entire body seemed to transform into an ancient giant beast, crushing down towards the domain with an incomparably powerful might.


    In the next moment, with a cracking sound, Lin Xing once again took out the celestial sword and flew toward the elegant youth.


    "Son of God, save me." The elegant youth faced the sky as he desperately called out.


    As the sound of his voice faded, Lin Xing''s sword stabbed into his face, causing a bloody hole to appear on his face. The state of his death was a very miserable one.


    Following his death, the teleportation ceremony was interrupted. The blood-red light pillar slowly dissipated. The figure inside coldly looked at Lin Qi, and before long, all of it disappeared.


    At the same time, in the distant Constellation Mountain Gate, 12 towering mountains connected together into a line. In a magnificent and glorious hall, a young man wearing a crown with sharp eyes opened his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes.


    "Good, very good. An insignificant person in the Heaven Smiting Stage, you have already successfully caught my attention."


    With that said, he suddenly stood up and rushed towards the entrance of the hall with large strides. He then soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

 C252

    The battle had ended. Not only did it end the crisis, it even ended the killing.


    However, at this moment, none of them showed any signs of happiness. Instead, they all became silent, and their gazes fell onto Lin Qi''s body at the same time.


    Although they had all taken action in the battle just now, with the exception of Cheng Chen, the last fatal attack the disciples of the Constellation Mountain received before their deaths could be confirmed to have been done by Lin Xing.


    In other words, both of them had been killed by him alone.


    "Are you really in the Heaven Smiting Stage?" Mu Hui was stunned.


    "How could that be false? Don''t forget, I am a sword immortal." Lin Xing said with a smile.


    Hearing this, everyone pondered for a moment before feeling relieved.


    At this time, Lin Xing walked up to the two corpses and grabbed them with his palm. He then broke open their soul holes and stuffed all their belongings into his own waist pouch.


    Mu Hui and Wei Yi looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders helplessly. After all, if it weren''t for Lin Xing, they wouldn''t have been a match for those two disciples of the Constellation Mountain.


    Both of them were the most outstanding disciples of Constellation Mountain. Naturally, they had a rich family background. Lin Xing was not courteous at all. In front of them, all of them were confiscated.


    Following that, they walked forward another one li. A disk of stars hung in the sky, and the stars were densely packed as they flickered with precious light. It was particularly eye-catching.


    This was the Heavenly Artifact that the elegant youth had mentioned earlier. As he died, it automatically lost its effectiveness. Lin Xing was also not polite and immediately grabbed it.


    "Brother Lin ¡­" Suddenly, Wei Yi walked over and called out to him. His gaze towards the star disc was filled with fervor.


    Lin Qi didn''t pay any attention to him. He directly stored the disc in his soul cave. He had great use for this. If it was used to assist him in his cultivation of the Art, then it would have twice the effect with half the effort.


    If it weren''t for the scene of Lin Qi killing the Astral Mountain Realm earlier and if it were any other ordinary Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator, Wei Yi would have long ago snatched it from him. In the end, he gritted his teeth and repressed his anger.


    The spoils of the battle had all been taken away by Lin Xing.


    Just then, Mu Hui cleaned up the two corpses without leaving any trace. He walked over with Cheng Chen and the other two disciples from the Heaven Mending Sect who had consumed elixirs. On her face, undisguised worry could be seen.


    Lin Xing saw the worry in her heart and grinned. "If this matter gets exposed, you can release the news that all the disciples of Constellation Mountain have been killed by me. Your Heaven Mending Sect has no relation at all."


    "Big brother Lin Xing, don''t worry, this matter will not leak out." You don''t have to take responsibility for us. " Cheng Chen immediately stood up.


    Mu Hui and the two disciples from the Heaven Mending Sect were struggling. They also nodded at him, indicating that there was no need to act this way.


    Lin Qi sighed. Since he was here, he had nothing to worry about. Naturally, he didn''t have to worry about retaliation from Constellation Mountain.


    However, Mu Hui and Cheng Chen were different. They were born and bred in the Heaven''s End Land. They did not include the Heaven Mending Sect, but they also had their own soldiers.


    They sighed softly and no longer said anything. Then, Wei Yi led them into the Yin Yang Valley.


    From the outside, it looked no different from an ordinary mountain forest. It was only when Wei Yi had used a special secret technique to bring Lin Xing and the rest into the valley did he realize that this place actually had a different world.


    As far as the eye could see, the mountain valleys were hidden, and the jungle covered the ground. At the back of the jungle, many bright lights were shining, and many caves were taking shape there.


    As soon as they entered, Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the others didn''t feel surprised at all. They saw a group of youths leaning against a mountain wall. All of them looked miserable, with wounds all over their bodies.


    He was truly like a group of defeated soldiers. They dodged the pursuit and were currently recuperating from their injuries here.


    "Senior brother Wei Yi!"


    Upon seeing that Wei Yi had arrived, many people let out joyful and shrill cries at the same time. From being listless, they instantly became spirited and spirited. The ones who were slightly injured even directly ran over.


    "You''ve all worked hard." Wei Yi looked at the wounds on their bodies with a face full of grief and indignation, his fists clenched to the point that they were harder than steel.


    "It''s nothing. When I''m done recuperating, I''ll go and fight it out with the people from Constellation Mountain."


    "Count me in. Constellation Mountain is going too far, making it hard for me to return home." I won''t be able to swallow my anger until I kill two people from Constellation Mountain. "


    Amongst them, most of them were at the peak of the Heaven Smiting Stage. Two of them also possessed the strength of a Star Mountain Stage.


    Lin Xing could tell that Wei Yi was very popular. Of course, at the current juncture of the Qilin Mountain, if there was another internal conflict, then the battle would be over.


    They had to be united in order to have hope of defending themselves.


    "Hmph! It''s too bad they''ve been hiding their lives. They haven''t come out yet, and big senior sister Leng Xiao went to the Heavenly Cauldron. Otherwise, one of them would be here. How could they allow the people from Constellation Mountain to act so wildly!?" A young man at the Astral Mountain Realm said in an intense tone, feeling indignant and discontent.


    "Who?" Lin Qi was stunned!

 C253

    "Who?"


    Upon hearing that name, Lin Xing was taken aback. He turned his head to look at the young man who had just spoken, and his eyes were filled with questions.


    The young man looked at him in surprise. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Senior apprentice brother Cang Tian and senior apprentice sister Leng Can Xin."


    "Heartless?"


    A strange expression appeared on Lin Qi''s face as the image of a skinny and ice-cold woman appeared in his mind.


    This female silhouette was something he had obtained from the Heavenly Cauldron. Drawing her sword, she looked around arrogantly and arrogantly. After entering the Heavenly Cauldron for half a month, she had already become a reputable heavyweight within the Heavenly Cauldron.


    "Does Lin Xing not know that I am Qilin of Qilin Mountain?" Wei Yi asked in surprise.


    Lin Xing blankly shook his head and said, "I come from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery and have just entered this place. That''s why I don''t know much about the Qilin Mountain."


    "Oh? "So Brother Lin is an Immortal from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery." Wei Yi''s eyes instantly widened as the others'' eyes began to glow as well.


    Although the strength of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery was inferior to some of the large sects on the sects'' ranking list, it was still rather well-known in the Heavenly Pursuit Land. Furthermore, it was quite a distance away.


    In fact, apart from the Heaven''s End Great Land, they had never seen anyone else. Thus, they were slightly surprised by Lin Xing.


    At this time, Mu Hui suddenly said to Lin Qi, "Let me introduce them to Brother Lin. Hidden Heart and Leng Ruxin are the two most recognized disciples in Qilin Mountain, and are considered the two most powerful individuals among Qilin Mountain''s younger generation. They are known as the ''Qilin Twin Heart'', and their reputations are in no way inferior to the ''God Son'' of Constellation Mountain."


    "So that''s how it is."


    Lin Xing remembered that when Leng Jianxin had just entered the Heavenly Cauldron for ten days, his combat prowess was already equal to Yin Qiuyi. In just half a month, he had become a new heaven-defying existence within the Heavenly Cauldron.


    At that time, Leng Wuxin had only just entered the Heavenly Cauldron, meaning that she had just broken through to the Heaven Smiting Stage. But before this, she was able to suppress the geniuses on the Qilin list and call her eldest senior sister.


    With this thought, the little brat''s cold figure suddenly appeared in Lin Xing''s mind. His cold heart was very similar to hers.


    Thinking of this, Lin Qi couldn''t help but whisper to himself in his heart. In the younger generation, Lin Xing had seen too many prodigies, but none of them were as talented as this kid.


    This was a Flying Immortal. Perhaps in the future, this would be the biggest difference between the Profound Sky Sect and the Heaven''s End.


    "Big brother Lin Qi, the Qilin Twin Heart is the most heaven-defying character in Qilin Mountain. Just as senior sister Mu Hui said, their reputations are no worse than the God Children of Constellation Mountain. At the very least, no one in my Heaven Mending Sect can compare to them." Seeing that Lin Qi was still deep in thought and worried that he didn''t understand it clearly enough, Cheng Chen spoke up at the right time.


    "He''s truly a role model for me. I would really like to meet him." Lin Xing said with a smile.


    "Heh heh, that''s only natural. Their strengths are all unfathomable and are highly valued by the elders. None of us Qilin Mountain''s disciples are unconvinced by both of their hearts." Wei Yi said with a face full of reverence.


    As the two of them were chatting, two figures walked over from afar.


    Upon closer inspection, the two were respectively an old man and a young man. The old man was dressed in sackcloth, had a gentle and kind expression, and always had a thought-provoking smile on his face, while the young man was a young lady with jade-like cheeks and a pure appearance. She was wearing a short blue skirt, and on the right side of her forehead was a thumb-sized blue butterfly.


    Wei Yi stepped forward and respectfully cupped his fists as he called out to the valley master.


    Hearing this, Cheng Chen''s expression changed and a look of ecstasy appeared on her face. The old man was the valley master of the Dark Void Valley and was also her target.


    As for the young lady behind him, Lin Xing guessed that she was very likely the one Wei Yi had mentioned earlier, the Cloud Butterfly who was ranked sixth on the Qilin List. As for the young lady behind him, Lin Xing guessed that she was very likely the one Wei Yi had mentioned earlier, the Cloud Butterfly who was ranked sixth on the Qilin List.


    The Dark Void Valley Lord smiled and nodded towards Lin Xing, Cheng Chen, and the other guests.


    Naturally, Lin Qi and the rest did not dare to delay and immediately nodded in response.


    Wei Yi suddenly moved in front of the Dark Void Valley Lord''s ears and gave him a soft whisper.


    As the voice was too soft, even the surrounding people couldn''t hear it. When the Dark Void Valley''s Valley Master heard Wei Yi''s words, his expression changed and he raised his arm to point at Lin Xing once more. His ancient eyes actually shot out a sharp gaze that locked onto Lin Xing''s body.


    Lin Xing''s heart shook. In front of the Dark Void Valley Master, he felt as if his soul had become transparent.


    Fortunately, he didn''t seem to have any malicious intent. He only stared at Lin Qi for a while with a surprised expression on his face.


    "Is that true?"


    The Dark Void Valley''s Valley Master withdrew his gaze and asked Wei Yi, who had already finished speaking. His tone carried shock, and he wanted to confirm it again.


    When he saw Wei Yi solemnly nod his head, he pondered for a moment before a glint of light flashed across his eyes.


    Afterwards, the Dark Void Valley Lord strode forward and said to Cheng Chen, "Guests from the Heaven Mending Sect, I''ve heard the purpose of your visit from Wei Yi."


    "Valley Master, do you agree?" Cheng Chen hurriedly asked.


    If you can risk your life to come to my valley to buy soul medicine, how can I not help you? Moreover, I am willing to sell it at a low price. The Dark Void Valley Lord looked at Cheng Chen with benevolent eyes.


    Then he turned to Yun Die and said, "Die''er, quickly take out some soul medicines from the soul hole and let them choose as they please."

 C254

    With a wave of her sleeve, she took out a small pile of soul medicine from her soul hole and suspended it in the air in front of her.


    Soul medicine was different from normal magical herbs. The soul medicine''s appearance was strange, almost completely translucent, the meridians inside the body could be clearly seen, it was as if the whole body was embedded in the void, floating in a strange way, without any smell.


    In her excitement, Cheng Chen went up to pick eight spirit medicines and then asked the Dark Void Valley Lord how much it would cost.


    "You should have brought a top quality spirit crystal with you. Three pieces should be enough." The Dark Void Valley Lord smiled.


    Everyone was amazed, Cheng Chen was overjoyed. Normally, a soul medicine was worth at least a top quality spirit crystal, but she bought eight, but it only cost three. This was truly out of her expectations, and she repeatedly thanked the Dark Void Valley Lord in joy.


    She put away the eight pieces of soul medicine and bowed towards the Dark Void Valley Master. Then, she turned around and said to Lin Xing and Mu Hui, "The transaction has already been completed. Let''s hurry back now."


    "Yes, of course." Mu Hui and the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect nodded in agreement.


    "Wait for me first."


    Lin Qi replied without panicking. At the same time, he moved his feet and walked towards the Dark Void Valley Lord.


    "Valley Master, can you also sell me two spirit medicines?" Lin Que pleaded.


    The Dark Void Valley Lord smiled as if he had already expected this. He then asked, "Can I have a word with you?"


    Lin Qi frowned and then decisively nodded his head. The head of the Dark Void Valley walked into the forest behind him. Seeing that, he also quickly followed.


    After walking very far away, the Dark Void Valley Lord finally said, "I can see that little brother''s soul is also damaged."


    Lin Xing furrowed his brows and expressionlessly nodded his head.


    "This old man wants to ask little brother for a favor. If you agree, I can give you a hundred spirit medicines, and I won''t charge you a single cent." The Dark Void Valley Lord smiled.


    Lin Qi was surprised. His eyes flashed as he said, "The Dark Void Valley Lord is too serious. There are many powerful people in this valley right now. How can I, a mere Heaven Smiting Stage junior, help you?"


    "Valley Master, please sell a few of my spirit medicines. Please have this junior leave Qi Lin Mountain as soon as possible."


    "Wait a moment, little brother. It won''t be too late to refuse after listening to this old man." The Dark Void Valley Lord was not flustered. He paused for a moment, slightly raising his head to look at Yun Die, he smiled and asked Lin Qi, "What do you think of Yun Die?"


    Lin Qi was stunned. He looked at Yun Die and replied, "Lady Yun Die is extremely talented and beautiful. She is a rare sight in the world."


    "Alright, how about I entrust you with the Cloudy Butterfly?" The Dark Void Valley Lord said with a smile.


    As these words left his mouth, Lin Qi''s jaw dropped in disbelief.


    In terms of appearance, although he was somewhat handsome, he could only belong to the category of ordinary people. In terms of cultivation level, he was just Jie Kong, and Yun Die had one foot in the Domain, there was no reason for her to choose him.


    You also know that Constellation Mountain is now determined to flatten our Qilin Mountain, so to be able to protect that wave for two hundred years has already greatly damaged our Qilin Mountain. Now, if we attack again, we won''t be able to withstand the attacks from Constellation Mountain, which possesses the dragon head''s weapon. The Yin Void Valley Lord''s words were bold and precise, and his tone carried a pleading tone, both of them coming from the bottom of his heart.


    "Why don''t you let her go back with the people from the Heaven Mending Sect? It''s safer than staying in front of me."


    Lin Qi furrowed his brows as he racked his brains, trying to figure out what was going on. However, he was sure that the Dark Void Valley Lord had set a trap for him.


    "I don''t trust the Heaven Mending Sect. The only person worth trusting is an outsider like you from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery." The Dark Void Valley Lord sighed, feeling as if he had made arrangements for the future.


    However, the next moment, his tone became vulgar as he said, "Yundie will follow you. From now on, she will be in charge of your living and living, bathing and changing clothes."


    Lin Qi''s face darkened. He really wanted to punch this benevolent old man in front of him until he fell flat on his face.


    He wiped off his sweat and said, "Okay then, just let Yun Die stay by my side for now."


    "Hehe ¡­" That''s right. " The Dark Void Valley Master waved his hand and Yun Die slowly walked over.


    "Young master!" Yun Die called out to Lin Qi with a kind and sincere face.


    Hearing these two words, Lin Xing''s mouth twitched. He silently sighed, not saying anything to change her way of addressing him, barely accepting it.


    "From today onwards, Yun Die will be by your side. Since she has become your maid, do you need to help her with a small matter?" The Dark Void Valley Lord once again looked at Lin Xing with a smile.


    "Still busy?" Lin Qi''s eyelids twitched as if he had been tricked.


    "Yeah." The Cloud Butterfly''s physique is very special, possessing the Illusory Divine Body is the world''s most secretive physique, so she was suppressed by the gods. Originally, she would not live past sixteen years, but I have found a secret method to extend her life, and that is to consume a demonic medicine every month. Before this, I''ve already helped her prepare ten stalks of Monster Elixir, and can extend her life for a lifetime. But from now on, you''ll need to think of a way. "


    At this moment, Lin Qi was on the verge of tears. He finally understood that the Dark Void Valley Lord had been lying to him from the very beginning. Indeed, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.


    "Where is the Demon Elixir?" He sighed. He had already agreed, so he had no other choice.

 C255

    "The deepest part of the Purple Flame Forest!"


    "What!"


    Lin Qi was so shocked that he jumped up and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you aren''t joking?" He thought he had misheard.


    "This old man never lies." The Dark Void Valley Lord puffed out his chest.


    "Young master, Valley Master did not lie to you. Demon medicines can only be found in the deepest parts of the Purple Flame Forest." Yun Die was like a little sheep, cowering in front of Lin Qi, afraid that he would reject her.


    Lin Xing really wanted to slap himself.


    When the guards had brought him here, they had only walked to the outermost region of the Violet Flame Forest and had met the corpse of the prison. Who knew what other terrifying monsters were lurking in the depths?


    "But, what I don''t understand is, Valley Master, you have great abilities. Why don''t you go to the depths of the Purple Flame Forest and harvest all of the demonic medicine? As for the future, I''ll think of a way." Lin Xing said.


    The Dark Void Valley Lord smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Yes, this old man''s cultivation is indeed astonishing, but the Purple Flame Forest is not a place this old man can forcefully enter. To be honest, this old man doesn''t dare to enter."


    "If you don''t dare to enter, then I will?" Lin Xing wiped off his sweat.


    "Of course you can, because you have the Purple Flame Flying Dagger. As long as you have it, you won''t be able to pass through the forest unimpeded, but it will definitely reduce some unnecessary twists and turns." The Dark Void Valley Lord said.


    "Is this it?"


    Lin Qi took out a throwing knife that was bathed in blood-red flames from his soul cave and asked the Dark Void Valley Lord.


    "Not bad, you have indeed obtained the Purple Flame Flying Dagger and have become the new leader of the Purple Flame Forest."


    Staring at the Purple Flame flying dagger in his hand, the Yin Void Valley Lord exclaimed in admiration.


    "Palm?" Lin Xing was at a loss.


    "Young master, the person holding the saber is a title that only those who have obtained the Purple Flame Flying Daggers can obtain. In the past ten years, there have been a total of two people holding the saber; one is Leng Can Xin, the other is you, young master." This Purple Flame Flying Blade can easily intimidate the demons and demons of the Purple Flame Forest. So before, it was always Big Sister Remnant Heart who went to help me harvest the demonic spirit medicine. " Xue Die explained.


    "Oh." Lin Xing replied with an ''oh''.


    That was to tell him that Leng Jianxin had also obtained a Purple Flame flying knife. At that time, with her cultivation, she dared to enter the depths of the Purple Flame Forest. Lin Xing had no reason to be afraid, and Yun Die was trying to provoke him.


    "If you don''t mind Yun Die''s life, this old man will ask you to immediately rush to the Purple Flame Forest. Don''t have any illusions and come back after a year to harvest. By then, the entire Qilin Mountain will be occupied by Constellation Mountains and not even a single bird will be able to fly in. "Harvesting the demonic spirit medicine to keep the Cloud Butterfly alive." The Yin Yang Valley said righteously.


    Lin Qi was silent.


    "I''ll let you know more. Actually, all of the soul medicines in our Dark Void Valley are harvested in the Purple Flame Forest. As long as you go there, you can gather as many as you want." The Dark Void Valley Lord threw out an allure.


    Lin Qi was moved. He looked at Yun Die and pondered for a moment. Then, he made a decision.


    "I''ll go. "But I can only go alone, Yun Die will wait for me here." he said.


    "That''s exactly what I was thinking." The Dark Void Valley Lord laughed loudly.


    Lin Qi wiped away his sweat. He really wanted to strangle him to death on the spot.


    The only thing that made him happy was that Yun Die came closer and said gently, "Young master." If you really can''t find it, then come back as soon as you can. I have one year''s worth of demonic medicine and it''s enough for a very long time. If it doesn''t work, then think of a way to sneak in a year later. "


    Looking at how Yun Die was blaming herself, Lin Xing''s heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife. He comforted her, "Yun Die, don''t worry, I''ll bring the demonic medicine back for you. With me here, you can live as long as I can. "


    He sympathized with Yun Die. They had experienced the same thing, so he couldn''t help but feel sorry for her.


    "I''ll remind you again, I just received news that Constellation Mountain also values the Purple Flame Forest. They have already sent at least two of their most outstanding disciples to the Purple Flame Forest to plunder the soul medicine. You''d better not be run into by them." The Dark Void Valley Lord reminded.


    Lin Qi could not be bothered with him. He snorted and turned around to leave, not wanting to hear any of his nonsense.


    Lin Qi walked up to Cheng Chen and Mu Hui and said, "You guys go back first."


    "What, Big Brother Lin Xing, you''re not coming back with us?" Cheng Chen asked in surprise.


    "I still have some things to take care of, so I won''t be going back for the time being. You guys can go back to the Heaven Mending Sect first. In two days, I''ll come to the Heaven Mending Sect to find you." Lin Qi forced a smile on his face.


    Cheng Chen naturally discovered that he had something that was hard to say, but she still didn''t feel reassured. She said, "Then I''m not going back either. Big brother Lin Xing, I''ll wait here for you."


    Mu Hui and the two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect also nodded and were willing to stay.


    "No, Cheng Chen, if you still recognize this brother of mine, then leave Qilin Mountain immediately." Lin Qi firmly refused. His tone was severe.


    According to the Dark Void Valley Lord, within two days, Constellation Mountain would be under heavy pressure. At that time, the entire Constellation Mountain would fall into chaos, and it would be very dangerous to stay.

 C256

    Lin Xing''s attitude was firm. He told Cheng Chen and Mu Hui to leave immediately while he chose to stay behind and go deeper into the Purple Flame Forest to pick the elixirs.


    "Brother Lin, can you tell me why you stayed behind?" Mu Hui asked bitterly.


    Cheng Chen and the other two disciples of the Heaven Mending Sect also looked over at the same time.


    "For some reason, I need to go to the Purple Flame Forest." Lin Qi did not hide anything and chose to speak frankly.


    Cheng Chen, Mu Hui, and the other two couldn''t help sucking in a breath of cold air when they heard this.


    They had just experienced the terrifying power of the Purple Flame Forest not long ago, and it was only the outermost corpse. Its strength was much higher than Mu Hui''s, so there was no need to explain further.


    "This ¡­"


    They were all in a daze, unable to believe what kind of courage Lin Xing must have. He must have had the guts to challenge that dangerous place.


    "Brother, I want to know, what made you make this decision?" Cheng Chen asked softly.


    Lin Xing turned his face to the side and looked at Yun Die, who was discussing something with the Dark Void Valley Lord. He did not say anything.


    Seeing this scene, Cheng Chen''s expression darkened. His expression became sour and bitter. He grumbled, "Big brother, be careful. I''ll wait for you at the Heaven Mending Sect."


    With that, she turned and walked to the side. Her back was a little lonely.


    Mu Hui sighed. He calmed himself and said to Lin Xing, "Brother Lin, we have been friends for a while. I need to remind you that your relationship with Cheng Chen is not as good as that of Cloud Butterfly''s. Perhaps you may have hidden troubles, but this is not a reason. Your decision today has already chilled her heart. "


    Lin Qi was taken aback. To be honest, he didn''t think too much about it just now. Guilt was written all over his face.


    "Also, according to the legends, the depths of the Purple Flame Forest is connected to another world. The world is not just filled with strange creatures like the prison corpses. Brother Lin, please take care of yourself."


    After Mu Hui finished speaking, he turned around and left with the two disciples from the Heaven Mending Sect. He walked up to Cheng Cheng and gave her a light nod. Then, all of them left without looking back.


    Another world?


    Lin Xing wrinkled his brows and looked at the smiling Dark Void Valley Lord with an extremely bad mood.


    Looking at this matter from the point of view of the Dark Void Valley Master, Qilin Mountain was about to fall. As one of the core figures of Qilin Mountain, he had to stay and engage in a bloody battle to the last moment to fight it out with Constellation Mountain.


    However, he did not want to involve Yun Die in this, so he had arranged for it to happen.


    The Purple Flame Forest was not a normal place. The danger index could not be estimated, even if the Purple Flame Flying Blade really did have the ability that they described, he was still somewhat shocked.


    Just as his mind was about to sink into a quagmire, Yun Die walked over and said, "Young master, if you are worried, I will go with you or make a master and servant contract with you. As long as young master is willing, everything is fine."


    A master-slave contract?


    Lin Xing narrowed his eyes. Yun Die really did dare to think. Once this kind of contract was established, it would fuse with the laws of the heavens. He couldn''t defy it. He only needed one thought to decide Yun Die''s life and death.


    "No need. Wait here for me to come back."


    Lin Zhi was willing to be cheated, but he didn''t want to make that bullsh * t master and servant contract. He admitted that he wouldn''t be able to make someone with a higher cultivation and more beautiful looks become his servant for no reason.


    Then, Lin Qi left the Yin Yang Valley and ran towards the Purple Flame Forest.


    The Purple Flame Forest was located at the side of the Dark Void Valley. As soon as he left the valley, he looked up and saw a forest not far away that seemed to be burning with fire. He immediately dashed into it.


    Stepping into the Purple Flame Forest, Lin Xing slowed down his pace. He took out a celestial sword from his soul hole and placed it on his back, in case something happened, he would be able to defend against the enemy in time.


    The trees were covered with a brilliant radiance. Rainbow colored flames covered the entire Purple Flame Forest, as if a blazing inferno was burning within.


    As he went deeper in, Lin Xing''s brows furrowed even more tightly. His eyes constantly scanned his surroundings, and a sense of restlessness arose in his heart.


    The surrounding trees were all strange. To be exact, the entire Purple Flame Forest was filled with strange things. Even though the wind was blowing, the plants that were glowing were motionless. It was as if they were frozen in place.


    The time here seemed to have come to a standstill as only he was able to move. It was as though he was walking through a painting scroll.


    If it wasn''t for the cold wind blowing from time to time, Lin Xing would have thought this was some sort of soul space.


    Before he came here, Mu Hui had told him that the depths of the Purple Flame Forest was connected to another world. This legend was not baseless; perhaps a piece of the soul space was hidden there.


    After walking for a long time, the unease in his heart became heavier. He decided to take out the Purple Flame flying knife from the soul hole.


    When the Purple Flame Flying Daggers appeared, he was instantly taken aback by the next scene.


    The frozen plants in the surroundings seemed to sense the strong deterrence and immediately moved to the side. They all retreated like living creatures in fear.

 C257

    The scene in front of him caused him to be stupefied. He could not believe his eyes.


    The moment the Purple Flame Flying Daggers appeared, the surrounding trees began to tremble as if they were living beings. They moved to the sides, not daring to obstruct them in the slightest. They were extremely intelligent.


    The plants and vegetation here were the same as the Spirit Forming Mountain. They all possessed intelligence, and the Purple Flame Flying Daggers were their nemesis. Instinctively, they revealed their fear, which was why this scene had occurred.


    Sou sou ¡­


    Suddenly, three tall fire figures madly rushed towards the distance as if they were fleeing. Their running speed was extremely fast and their backs were extremely sorry.


    Upon seeing their physique, Lin Xing''s heart immediately burst. Shock appeared on his face.


    The three fiery shadows were actually three prison corpses, and each of them had the strength of the Heaven Speeding Stage, and their auras were extremely terrifying. Noticing the guest Lin Xing, they hid in the shadows and wanted to join hands to kill him, but when they sensed the Purple Flame Flying Blade, they became scared out of their wits and immediately fled.


    After some thought, Lin Qi could not help but break out in cold sweat as his mind was in a mess. If not for his quick wit in taking out the Purple Flame Flying Daggers, he would probably have turned into an ice-cold corpse by now.


    "Truly a good thing. The Dark Void Valley Lord did not lie to me. to be able to scare the three of them to such an extent. "


    Lin Qi''s eyes lit up as he stared at the Purple Flame flying dagger. His expression was full of excitement, as if he had obtained a precious treasure.


    In fact, he did not know that the effect of this flying knife was not limited to just that. It could restrain all kinds of things like spirituality, spirits, etc. As long as this flying knife scratched a little bit of skin, it would directly erase the spirit and restore it to its original state.


    Understanding the power of the Purple Flame Flying Daggers, Lin Qi''s courage was immediately boosted. He suddenly held the flying daggers in his hands and quickened his pace, sprinting forward at full speed.


    Nothing dared to come out and obstruct him. It was too late to avoid him. He was like an uninhabited land, shuttling around as he wished.


    Along the way, he harvested many soul medicines. There were at least a hundred of them, and their shapes were very strange. The roots were rooted in the void, as if they were some kind of vegetation that grew from the void.


    Now that he had obtained the soul medicine, he could finally relax. Next up, he needed to find the demon medicine and fulfill his previous promise.


    About a quarter of an hour later, he arrived at the edge of the Purple Flame Forest. Looking at the scene before him, he couldn''t help but feel astonished.


    There was no vegetation in front of them. The entire space was filled with resplendent rays of light, as if it was a realm of light. It was a hazy and beautiful scene.


    He was shocked, unable to believe that he had never seen such a strange sight before.


    It was bright and resplendent, covering the entire arena. Rainbow colored halos danced in the air as multicolored colors swirled around it.


    Apart from its radiance, there was nothing else that could be seen. It was as if it was in primal chaos.


    What surprised him even more was that close to the light, there were green fruits hanging in the air. They were about the size of a palm and crystal clear, appearing translucent. Even the branches and roots were similarly hidden in the air.


    "Spirit medicine?" "Could this be the other world that Mu Hui mentioned?"


    Lin Qi counted and found that there were at least fifty green fruits. He couldn''t help but be pleasantly surprised. After observing for a while and making sure nothing was abnormal, he walked up to pick the green fruits one by one.


    The green fruit fell off the moment it came into contact with his hand, and picking it wasn''t a problem at all. However, there was one thing that amazed him. Every time he picked a demonic spiritual medicine, there would be a vibration in the shining space.


    The voice was like thunder, and it was like an earthquake, causing the surrounding land to tremble.


    Such a mystical yet strange scene caused Lin Xing''s hair to stand on end, as his heart began to race in his chest.


    He could not stay in this place for long. A dark haze descended from the sky. With a wave of his sleeve, he harvested all fifty or so demonic spiritual medicines and stored them in his soul cave.


    At the same time, in another corner of the Purple Flame Forest, there were six silhouettes.


    At the front of the group were a young woman and a handsome young man.


    The two of them were at the Celestial Charm Realm, and there were four youths following behind them. Both of them were at the Great Circle of the Heaven Smiting Stage, and their eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings for any signs of trouble.


    The five young men wore different clothes, but there were five shining stars embroidered on their right arm, and their identities were obvious.


    Only the girl''s right arm was missing. She was dressed elegantly in colorful clothes, had a slim figure, and had a beautiful appearance. Her bright eyes and white teeth, along with her exquisite skin, were like the gentle waves of a gentle breeze.


    Taking one step at a time, the woman waved her sleeves and petals fell down onto the surrounding vegetation. The vegetation quickly retreated, not daring to obstruct her. It was as if a fairy from a hundred flowers was strolling in the garden.


    Seeing this, the leader of the group, Constellation Mountain youth, could not help but click his tongue in wonder.


    "There are Flying Immortal Stage cultivators in the Celestial Gate and Heavenly Gods with their divine arts. Rumors have it that they have the power to shake the world. The rumors are indeed true. I, Yuan Ran, have truly broadened my horizons today." Yuan Ran praised.


    "Brother Yuan, you''re in serious trouble. Your Dragonrise Branch also has Skywalker''s ability to pry into the commands of heaven. Only then can you have the ability to go straight to the ears of the heavens. That''s truly amazing." The name smiled.

 C258

    "My lady is right, but unfortunately, our Constellation Mountain''s upper echelons have worked so hard over the generations, expending countless treasures of heaven and earth, yet we have still not been able to nurture a Ming Tian Jie. Our Constellation Mountain is also unable to communicate with the heavens because of this, and we are completely suppressed by the Tianyi Sect." Yuan Ran said with a tone full of regret and anger.


    The lady shook her head, pursed her cherry lips and said: "Ming Tian Hu cannot do it, for example when the Tian Yi Sect''s Ming Tian Hou was born, it was already decided, but what''s truly unfortunate is that the Tian Yi Sect was a step faster than your Constellation Mountain back then, and was robbed away by the Tian Yi Sect. Otherwise, the second largest Sect of Dragon heads would be your Constellation Mountain. "


    "Yeah. This is indeed a pity. Ever since we obtained the Heavenly Mystery Realm, the strength of the Tianyi Sect has increased tremendously. It is enough to shake the position of the overlord of the Ghost God Mountain. " Yuan Ran said.


    The woman shook her head again and laughed softly as if she did not care about it at all: "Your three great leading sects have monopolized all the resources and soldiers in the Heavenly Pursuit Land, and they all have dragon heads and weapons, and their strengths are all on par with each other. The only thing that can distinguish the strong and weak is their foundation, which is why the Ghost God Mountain and the other old monsters have survived since the time of the Divine Ancient Era.


    When Yuan Ran and the four young men heard this, they couldn''t help but frown.


    He said, "This subject is a Heavenly Spirit God and is highly valued by the Gui Spirit Sect. This subject is able to participate in major decisions of the Gui Spirit Sect and knows many secrets of the various sects. However, putting aside the dragon head weapon, if we are to discuss about the background, this subject might as well say, which sect can take second place? "


    The woman stopped and looked at him. She frowned slightly, and after a while, she said with a serious expression, "Heaven Mending Sect."


    "Heaven Mending Sect?"


    Yuan Ran was astonished as he didn''t expect it to be this sect. He then laughed and didn''t think much of it.


    "As far as I know, the Heaven Mending Sect is the nemesis of your sect, I don''t understand why Miss Chen would praise it so highly. I heard that the God Child of Jing Yuan brought Miss Chen here to help me gather the soul medicine because the God Child agreed to help you suppress the Heaven Mending Sect during the great competition half a year from now." Yuan Ran said with a faint smile.


    "That''s right." A hint of disdain flashed past the woman''s eyes, but it was concealed well. No one noticed it, so she continued to walk forward.


    "Brother Yuan doesn''t need to worry about the matter with the Gui Spirit Sect. However, your Constellation Mountain has really expanded in recent years. It seems that it has already set its sights on the Qilin Mountain." The woman''s voice was slightly gloomy.


    "Hehe, I presume this subject has also heard of the grudge between the High Lords of our Constellation Mountain and the Ten Thousand Bones Sect Leader of the Qilin Mountain. This High Lord has come for revenge." Yuan Ran said.


    The woman smiled in disdain. She despised Yuan Ran so much that he didn''t even blush when he told a lie.


    She had naturally heard of the matter of the Constellation Mountain High Lord and Ten Thousand Bone Sect Sovereign. But that was only an excuse for Constellation Mountain to seize this opportunity to occupy Qi Lin Mountain.


    Speaking of which, Qilin Mountain had an unspeakably important position in the Heavenly Jue Great Land. This time, even after the huge attack from Constellation Mountain, not a single person from the large sects came to stop it. Instead, they tacitly agreed to what Constellation Mountain was doing.


    As a result, once the Qilin Mountain was occupied, the strength of Constellation Mountain would increase rapidly. It would be fine if the other small sects didn''t interfere, but the Heaven''s Secret Sect and the Ghost God Mountain didn''t say a word.


    Phew...


    Just as they were separated by appearances and gods, each of them having their own thoughts, a youth dashed into the distance.


    The youth wielded the celestial sword in his hand. His figure was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of them.


    "You''re courting death."


    Yuan Ran was infuriated. He sent out a bolt of lightning, detecting that the youth''s cultivation was only at the Heaven Smiting Stage. He actually dared to charge recklessly at them.


    Puff ¡­


    The youth let out a cold laugh. He flipped the celestial sword and easily dissolved the lightning bolt. Then he brushed past them and quickly escaped without stopping.


    The woman frowned. She noticed that something was wrong. He looked like he was running for his life.


    When she turned around to look in the direction the youth had come from, the girl''s beautiful face immediately turned pale.


    The space in front of them shook, and a tiger shaped beast with wings on its back shuttled back and forth in the air. Its body was astonishing, and its aura was like a dragon''s. What was even more terrifying was that it actually caused spatial turbulence.


    "Void Beast!"


    Yuan Ran exclaimed as the expressions of the six people changed at the same time.


    "This little trash at the Heaven Smiting Stage actually lured the Void Beast over. Fuck, once I catch him, I''ll definitely pull his bones out and tear out his tendons."


    Even Yuan Ran, who came from the Constellation Mountain and had a high cultivation level, was furious to the point that his balls were turning green.


    The girl''s beautiful face also paled as she became flustered and exasperated. This was too despicable. As she looked at the back of the young man who was running away, she also gnashed her teeth in anger.


    In the next moment, the Void Beast closed in, emitting power that was many times stronger than that of the Astral Mountain Realm.


    Yuan Ran, the girl, and the other six were already so terrified that their hearts broke. They didn''t dare to fight anymore and immediately followed the escaping path of the young man and ran.

 C259

    Lin Qi was like a bolt of lightning, shuttling rapidly through the forest of purple flames. When he suddenly noticed the six figures following behind him, he could not help but frown, feeling extremely wronged in his heart.


    They really had bad luck. Coincidentally, Lin Xing did not intentionally lure the Void Beast here. He had really bumped into it.


    Not long ago, he finished harvesting the fifty or so spiritual medicines, and just as he was about to leave, a Void Beast suddenly jumped out from the chaotic space and injured him.


    In the ancient era, it had ruled the world for a period of time. Even though it had also been exiled by the heavens, and the beast blood had been degenerated, at least to Lin Ming, it was still a confused and strong beast, not daring to fight it to the death no matter what.


    After that, he ran like the wind, not daring to stop for even half a second. Then, he remembered the scene when he rammed into the Constellation Mountain disciples.


    The Void Beast chased closely after them. It would swim around in space, enter and leave. It was extremely strange.


    Not far in front of it was the group of Constellation Mountain disciples and the Heavenly God Realm cultivator. They also had panicked expressions as they chased after Lin Xing in hot pursuit.


    Lin Xing became the leader. No matter where he ran, the six people behind him would follow. Naturally, they also attracted the Void Beast.


    "You bunch of Constellation Mountain bastards, don''t follow me anymore. Everyone split up and run. You might still have a chance to live."


    Lin Qi roared in anger. His expression was innocent, as if he had just suffered an unexpected calamity.


    Among the six people in the back, the woman and Yuan Ran were both at the Star Mountain Realm. They activated either their God Power or their Sky Origin Stage to carry the four Heaven Smiting Stage warriors as they flew through the sky at a speed as fast as light.


    However, they did not fly into the air because that would be too big of a target and would attract the attention of the Void Beasts. He could fly on the ground and use the Violet Flame Forest to hide his body.


    After running for a long time, the six of them realized that the Heaven Smiting Stage youth in front of them was actually faster than them. Even after using all their strength, they had not been able to catch up.


    "Boy, I''m warning you. Immediately stop and lure the Void Beast away or else if I catch up, you will die quite miserably." Yuan Ran replied with a livid expression as his entire body was set on fire.


    It was precisely because of this young man that they suffered such an unexpected calamity and were chased and beaten by the Void Beast.


    Lin Qi chuckled and turned his head at the same time as he dashed away, treating Yuan Ran''s words like fart.


    At this moment, he frowned again. He discovered that he seemed to have gotten lost. Even after running for so long, he still hadn''t run out of the range of the Purple Flame Forest. It was too unusual.


    After running for about a quarter of an hour, Lin Xing stopped and looked in front of him. His expression was heavy and his face was full of shock.


    The next moment, the six people of Constellation Mountain who were following him arrived. They were stunned as they saw the scene in front of them.


    "He actually came back. It''s this chaotic space again."


    Not long ago, Lin Qi had seen that chaotic space filled with rainbow-colored lights. After running for so long, not only was he unable to leave the Purple Flame Forest, he had even returned to his original spot.


    "It''s the Void Beast that changed the direction of the dimension."


    The Heavenly God Tier aura that the woman was carrying was not just for show. She was experienced and knowledgeable, and her brain was intelligent as well. After thinking for a moment, she was able to figure out the reason.


    "Hmph. It''s all his fault. I''ll kill him first, and then we can discuss how to take care of the Void Beast."


    Yuan Ran couldn''t suppress the anger in his heart any longer when he saw Lin Qi. All the troubles and troubles were caused by him. With a loud bellow, a droplet of water shot out from his finger towards Lin Qi.


    Puff!


    Lin Qi''s eyes turned cold as he rotated his Purple Flame flying knife. He threw it with his hand and shot out, slicing all the water droplets in half in an instant.


    "Hmm?"


    Yuan Ran and the other five were astonished. They knew that Lin Xing was not simple, but they did not expect him to be this extraordinary. He had casually dispelled the attack from the peak of the Star Mountain, Yuan Ran.


    "Enough, if you want to die, don''t pull me!"


    When the woman spoke, her voice was extremely gloomy as she scolded. Unexpectedly, the person she scolded was not Lin Xing, but Yuan Ran.


    Yuan Ran was stunned and puzzled. A cold light flashed in his eyes.


    The Void Beast is very sensitive to space. As long as you make a move, there will be spatial undulations that attract it, and with great difficulty, we can temporarily shake it off. Could it be that all of you aren''t even breathing, and you still want to be continued by it? The woman looked at Yuan Ran before looking back at Lin Qi as she coldly spoke.


    "Hmph."


    Yuan Ran coldly snorted, then flicked his sleeve and turned around, no longer saying anything.


    Lin Qi also knew that it was a matter of life and death. As long as Yuan Ran didn''t look for him, he wouldn''t take the initiative to stir up trouble.


    On the other hand, this female at the Stellar Mountain Realm caused a strange light to flash past his eyes. He discovered that her facial features were somewhat similar to the girl in his memories.


    "What is your relationship with this subject Xian?"


    "ChenXian?" The woman paused for a moment and smiled: "I''m Chenyao, chenxian is my half-sister."


    No wonder.


    Lin Xing muttered in his heart.


    This girl was also from a subject''s family. Her family was an imperial soldier that ruled over a million miles. Their overall size was comparable to that of the Heaven Ascension Sect.


    After carefully sizing up Chenyao, he noticed that she had an extraordinary aura around her. There was no need to intentionally release her noble aura, it was obvious at a glance.

 C260

    Chen Yao shot a glance at Lin Xing, rolled her eyes, and spoke in a cold voice, "I don''t care if this was intentional or unintentional. In short, this matter was caused by you, the one who lured the Void Beast here.


    "How do you want me to take responsibility? "Miss Chenyao." Lin Xing stared at her for a while before asking.


    "How? "After hearing my lady''s words, I really don''t dare to kill you right now, but if I meet you outside the Purple Flame Forest, you will die miserably. At that time, use your life as the responsibility." Yuan Ran suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Qi with a gaze as sharp as knives.


    Lin Qi ignored him, treating his words as if they were fart and dissipated with the wind, his eyes locked onto Chen Yao''s body.


    "The only thing we can do now is to go for broke. As for this axe, we need you to bring it with us." Just do as I say. Once we leave the Purple Flame Forest, I can guarantee that no one will dare to touch you. If you don''t, no one can guarantee you what will happen in the future. You should know the consequences of offending Constellation Mountain. "


    Chen Yao took out three shovels from her soul hole, her eyes filled with determination. She first handed one to Yuan Ran, then threw one to Lin Qi, keeping the other for herself.


    The entire spade shone with precious light. Resplendent symbols circulated on its surface, and a strange fluctuation was emitted from its edges. It seemed as if it could pierce through the void.


    The next moment, a tremor appeared in a space not too far away. The Void Beast detected the energy waves emitted by the shovel and felt it. It was rushing over here.


    "This is a spatial shovel, it comes from the Void School, it can scoop up space and protect you from harm, so you can walk safely in the void, but you can only use it for an incense''s time, which means that this is a one-time use weapon. Now, the space has been changed by the Void Beast, so you can only borrow the spatial shovel to walk in the void, ignore the space, and walk out of here. The three of us will each go first. You go first and lure the Void Beast away. Yuan Ran, you bring your junior along a different path, while I will go alone. "


    Seeing the Void Beast rush over, the group of people panicked. Only Chen Yao''s expression was calm, but she did not panic at all. She introduced the effects of the Void Shovel to Lin Xing, Yuan Ran, and the others, then explained the plan in her heart.


    "I''ll go first, right? However, what if I dug into the void and failed to attract the Void Beast? Or is it following you? " Lin Qi''s expression was solemn, he was not impatient. In this life or death situation, he had to be vigilant.


    "What are you still standing there for? Quickly leave. The Void Beast will arrive soon. If you don''t leave, do you believe that I''ll kill you right now?" Yuan Ran and the other four Heaven Smiting Stage disciples sensed the aura of the Void Beast within reach. Their faces turned pale as they shouted crazily at Lin Xing.


    Chenyao replied, "Just do as I say. Everything else is up to fate. It has nothing to do with you."


    "Crack ¡­"


    Lin Xing gazed into the distance with a cold glint in his eyes. He stabbed his shovel into the void, causing a small hole to appear in the void. A moment later, the treasured light from the shovel enveloped Lin Qi''s entire body, and he stepped into it.


    In the void, the darkness was boundless. Lin Xing locked onto a direction and continued to run.


    The red light enveloped his entire body, protecting him completely. However, chaos would occasionally appear in front of him, blocking his path. As a result, he immediately used the spatial shovel, shoveling away everything that obstructed his path.


    Chen Yao''s intentions were simple. Each of them carried out a void scoop, and everyone scattered in order to escape. This way, everyone would have a chance at survival, but because of Lin Xing, she allowed him to go first, opening up space and causing ripples in the air. As for whether or not he could survive, that would depend on his luck.


    Lin Qi knew her intentions, but there was nothing he could do. He could only follow her instructions. Otherwise, no one would be able to escape.


    The most terrifying thing was that the space had been sealed. Even if they ran all the way to the end of time, they still wouldn''t be able to escape the Purple Flame Forest. In the end, they would still die.


    Puff ¡­


    Right at that moment, two blood-red beads appeared in the air in front of him. Lin Xing looked over, his heart sinking into the abyss, he immediately turned around and ran in a different direction.


    Those were the eyes of the Void Beast. It first noticed his position and pounced towards him.


    Lin Qi was very calm as he ran. He ran around in a circle until he reached a straight line. In this dark space, he was unable to determine his direction except for a straight line. He was sure that it led to the outer area of the Purple Flame Forest.


    However, not long after, an astonishing scene appeared.


    He saw a seven-colored halo appearing in the air in front of him. It was incomparably resplendent in this world of darkness. Although he was astonished, he didn''t change his direction and instead sprinted in that direction.


    The Void Beast pursued him relentlessly from behind, and because of the scene in front of his eyes, he actually temporarily stopped in his tracks.


    Looking over, it was a pleasant looking world. There were flowers blooming on the ground, dense spiritual energy, mountains overlapping each other, ravines crisscrossing each other. Further into the distance, majestic and glorious palaces were hanging in the sky.


    Looking at the scene in front of him, he was shaken. He was sure that this was not Heaven''s End, but rather, it was very possible that this was the legendary other world.

 C261

    Suddenly, his pupils shrank. He actually saw many unknown creatures in that world. They all had different shapes, were powerful, and were filled with vitality. Their lives were lively and interesting, but there were no humans.


    That world was filled with both vicissitudes of life and boundless vitality. It was as if a new generation had just emerged to life.


    Lin Xing wasn''t the only one who discovered that world. It was unknown when even Chenyao had appeared on the edge of that world, but she was at a very great distance from him.


    "Chenyao."


    In the next moment, he was dumbstruck and shouted towards that direction.


    He saw that Chen Yao''s body was gradually moving towards that world.


    Heavens!


    She was ready to step into the new world.


    Lin Qi''s gaze was as sharp as a torch, locking onto Chen Yao. He saw that her expression was not one of shock, but rather excitement on her face. Stepping into this world, there was nothing alluring to say, it was all part of her plan.


    Puff ¡­


    Right at this moment, the Void Beast closed in on him once more. Lin Xing didn''t linger and gave Chenyao a deep look. He aimed his gaze straight at the beast and continued running.


    While he was shuttling through the void, he noticed one thing. The precious light on the void was gradually weakening, and even the light on his body was slowly dissipating.


    Chenyao had once said that this weapon was a one-time consumable. It could only last for an incense stick of time before turning to ash and dissipating.


    With that thought in mind, he ignored the energy consumption and increased his speed, running as fast as he could.


    After a long period of time, the void shovel was about to completely dissipate. He aimed at the surrounding space and dug downwards, immediately opening up a hole and rushing out.


    The next moment, the Void Beast also wanted to rush out along with the hole, but an inch of starlight suddenly appeared on Lin Xing''s right arm, he didn''t hesitate to use the Star Shifting Art, immediately punching out, knocking back the newly emerged Void Beast.


    Then, he pulled the space beside him with his finger, using his physical body to shake the space, pulling the layers of invisible space to the top of the hole, blocking all thoughts of the Void Beast coming out, but this was only temporary. Lin Xing turned around and ran, all the way out of the Purple Flame Forest.


    At this moment, the void shovel in his hand disappeared completely. Lin Xing narrowed his hands and clenched them into fists.


    Just now, when the spatial rift was opened, Lin Xing had already appeared outside of the sealed space. There was no space to stop him, so he casually stepped out of the Purple Flame Forest.


    However, just as he left the Purple Flame Forest and was about to relax for a moment, he frowned and immediately hid his presence.


    He saw terrifying auras appearing in front of him. They were all wearing sharp armor, and the lowest was at the Heaven Opening Realm, while the illusion technique outside the Yin Void Valley had already been broken. Everything inside was revealed, and on the ground laid many corpses.


    Seeing this scene, Lin Xing was very clear in his heart. The Dark Void Valley had already fallen, and those armored soldiers were the troops of Constellation Mountain.


    "Send three teams to split up and enter the Purple Flame Forest to help Yuan Ran plunder the soul medicine within. The others are on standby. The Star God has ordered that the Purple Flame Forest must be guarded well and must not be taken back by those from Qi Lin Mountain."


    Suddenly, a domineering voice could be heard. Then, groups of soldiers flew past Lin Qi, heading straight for the Purple Flame Forest.


    Lin Xing hid himself very well, so no one noticed him.


    "Young master."


    Just then, a female''s voice suddenly rang out from Lin Qi''s eardrums. However, when he surveyed his surroundings, he did not find anyone, causing him to jump in fright.


    "Young master, I''m here."


    A deep blue butterfly fluttered its wings, hovering in front of Lin Qi. From it, a melodious voice of a young lady could be heard.


    "Cloud Butterfly?" Lin Qi was surprised.


    "Yes, young master. This is the effect of the Illusionary God Physique. It can transform into any form, but I prefer butterflies." The voice came from the dark blue butterfly''s body.


    Lin Qi chuckled and stretched out a finger. The dark blue butterfly automatically landed on his finger.


    "Where are the Dark Void Valley Lord and the rest?" he asked.


    Not long after you entered the Purple Flame Forest, they attacked the Dark Void Valley. The Valley Master led a group of powerhouses away from the valley, so I''m not too sure where they are right now. Sir, this is not the place to talk, quickly follow me.


    The deep blue butterfly flapped its wings, appearing and disappearing in the forest.


    Seeing this, Lin Xing immediately followed.


    After running about fifty miles, the dark blue butterfly finally stopped and appeared on a small mountain.


    Lin Xing also followed along. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a terrifying energy emitting from the sky. He raised his head to look and saw a large group of powerhouses dressed in all sorts of clothing, flying towards the Yin Yang Valley.


    "Kill! Kill all these animals of Constellation Mountain and take back the land of our Qilin Mountain."


    The leader was a middle-aged man around forty years old. He pointed at the location of the Dark Void Valley and shouted angrily. His eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.


    Following his command, the large group of experts that followed him from the sky began charging towards the Yin Void Valley.


    Boom ¡­


    Instantly, the mountain rocks exploded and the ground trembled as shocking waves of air struck in all directions.


    All of these people were genuine experts, especially that middle-aged man. He was even more terrifying than the Giant Spirit Faction leader he had seen before. With just a wave of his hand, the heaven and earth would shatter and the earth shatter.

 C262

    "It''s the Ten Thousand Bones Sovereign, Xue Hou. He had a great grudge with the High Lord of Constellation Mountain, and now he brought people back to kill him."


    At this time, Yun Die had already returned to her human form from her butterfly form. Looking at the scene in the Yin Yang Valley, she said word by word.


    "What kind of enmity?" Lin Xing asked.


    "I heard that Xue Hou and High Lord Constellation were close friends when they were young, but in the end, both of them fell in love with the same woman. That woman mysteriously died, and from then on, the two of them were like fire and water, their hatred growing to this day." Yun Die scratched her head.


    "That''s really interesting." Lin Qi was speechless.


    "Gongzi, if there comes a day when others like me, will you fight with them for me?"


    For the first time, Yun Die suddenly brought up such a weird topic, causing Lin Xing to be speechless. He caressed Yun Die''s face and said, "With your cultivation and beauty, are there not many people in Qilin Mountain who like you? I won''t fight over it, because you are mine to begin with. Do I even need to fight to the death with them? "


    "Heh heh." Hearing this, Yun Die was in a good mood, with a happy smile on her face.


    Lin Qi''s expression was serious as he said, "Alright, let''s get to the point. Right now, Qi Lin Mountain is in trouble, we can''t stay for long. We need to leave immediately."


    "Yes, but the mountains in front have all fallen. We need to go from the back of the mountain now, but if we want to go from the back of the mountain, the journey is too far. It will be impossible in less than half a month." Yun Die frowned.


    "Don''t say anymore, lead the way." Lin Xing said.


    Yun Die nodded and grabbed Lin Qi, flying into the sky. The back of the mountain was relatively calm, with no enemies and no fear of attracting attention, so she directly chose to fly.


    Half a day later, a message came from Qilin Mountain, stopping Lin Xing and Yun Die in their tracks.


    Qi Lin Mountain''s eldest senior brother, one of the two Qilin hearts, had hidden his heart and came out half a day ago. He shouted through the air and challenged a God Child of Constellation Mountain.


    When this news came out, it immediately caused both sides to be shocked. A God Child of Constellation Mountain stepped out into the air and decisively responded by choosing a location on top of a mountain peak in the middle of the mountain.


    At this moment, the troops from both sides were temporarily putting down their weapons and running over to watch the most outstanding young men on both mountains fight.


    "Young master, should we continue running or go watch the fight?" Yun Die asked.


    "This kind of rare and interesting scene isn''t everywhere. How about we go and take a look? I also want to see the God Child of Constellation Mountain and its hidden intentions." Lin Xing said.


    He had already seen Leng Juexin in the Heavenly Cauldron before. Her battle prowess could be said to be heaven defying, and she could be said to be on the same level as Yin Qiangbai. And since he was willing to live up to her name, it meant that he was definitely an outstanding person. As for the other God Children of Constellation Mountain, they made him like a thunderclap, and even disregarded danger to go and observe them.


    Yun Die nodded and led him to the appointed battle spot.


    Four hours later, the two of them stood in the air and looked down.


    The four directions were filled with people. Regardless of whether they were experts or juniors, both mountains had arrived. Their gazes were locked on the mountain peak in the middle, occasionally letting out exclamations of shock.


    On top of the mountain, two young figures were crossing each other. Each of them had a domain level cultivation, and each of their moves could make space tremble as they exuded an incomparably powerful might.


    By the time Lin Xing and Yun Die arrived, the battle between the two had reached its climax. It was extremely fierce, and no one was willing to be outdone. Their strength shocked everyone, even the older generation experts could not help but gasp.


    "A hidden expert!" Lin Xing''s pupils contracted when he saw the red-clothed figure. He had actually used the Hidden Heaven Technique.


    "Yes, he is the eldest senior brother of the Hidden Heart Sect. He is a hidden genius." Staring at the spot, Yun Die''s eyes burned with passion. It was obvious that she also admired and hid her intentions.


    "But as far as I know, Qilin Mountain doesn''t seem to have a sect that hides within it." Lin Qi asked, puzzled.


    Yun Die laughed, "Young master is right, but young master should not forget the Qilin Group of elders. Among those old monsters, there is one that cultivates the Heaven''s Path Technique, and hiding your true intentions is to get his true inheritance."


    He was wearing a red robe and his looks were very attractive. He always showed a thought-provoking expression and his eyes were as deep as the starry sky. He used the Sky Concealment Technique to block all of Wang Lin''s attacks.


    The man he was fighting was also a young man. His clothes were fluttering in the wind and his Heavenly Source was as heavy as a mountain. Every move he made had special effects.


    The expressions of the surrounding spectators all changed.


    "Back then, when the two of them entered the Heavenly Cauldron, they had a battle. Now, they are still unable to do anything to each other."


    "Speaking of the Heaven Cauldron, the two of them have indeed made a name for themselves in the Heaven Cauldron. This has brought quite a bit of glory to our Heaven''s End Great Land."


    Some of the older generation members were amazed!


    To be honest, when they were young, they wouldn''t have been able to match up against these two even when they were slapping their horses. They were like ants in front of them, and even now, their hearts were trembling in fear.


    Lin Qi''s expression was equally heavy. His eyes were glued to the two figures.


    From the start of the battle, he had gained a lot, especially regarding the Heaven Repairing Technique, which had a new breakthrough.

 C263

    He had a much deeper understanding of the Hidden Heaven Secret Art than Lin Xing did. In actual combat, he could use the Heart and Hand technique. The Constellation Mountain God Child''s Heavenly Source couldn''t even get close to him.


    The God Child naturally understood this and began to mobilize the forces of nature, forming four directions and suppressing the God Child, making him unable to hide and escape with the help of the Sky Concealment Spell.


    His expression was indifferent. He hadn''t even frowned when he had fought until now. Under the heavy attacks of the Sky Origin Stage warriors, he was very relaxed and at ease.


    He opened up the void in front of him, and instantly, a dark aura burst out from it. Then, he pulled the incoming Heavenly Source into the void, and then sealed the dark space again, locking it in.


    However, this casual move caused everyone to suck in a cold breath.


    Although he was very well-prepared and could deal with the God Child''s attacks easily, he was still unable to attack the God Child. The battle had been in a stalemate.


    "Let''s go. Even if the two of them fight to the end, there''s no guarantee that they''ll be able to determine the victor."


    Lin Qi suddenly had a bad premonition. He had a feeling that the people from Constellation Mountain were very dangerous. He also knew that it would be difficult to determine the victor of the match, so it was pointless to continue watching.


    Yun Die hesitated for a moment. In fact, she wanted to continue watching. However, she was more obedient in front of Lin Qi and did not disobey him. She then flew with him to the back of the mountain.


    Ten days later, the two stepped into an open area. However, they still did not fly out of the Qilin Mountain, and currently, they had only traveled half of the distance to the back of the mountain.


    Along the way, Lin Xing handed all 50 Elixirs he harvested from the Purple Flame Forest to Yun Die. He also told her that once they left the Qilin Mountain, you could act on your own and not have to follow him anymore.


    When Yun Die got the demonic spiritual energy, she was first happy, then she was stunned. She shook her head like a rattle. She swore to follow Lin Xing and never leave.


    Lin Qi smiled. Everything was up to her, he had no intentions of forcing her. Since he had chosen to stay by his side, it was his responsibility to protect her.


    And on this day, the Qilin Elder Group gave the highest order. All of the people of Qilin Mountain immediately moved away, no one was allowed to fight against Constellation Mountain again!


    The group of elders knew that if they were to fight a Heaven Origin Sect with a dragon head weapon, they would not end up well. In the end, they had no choice but to move and ordered all the sects in Qilin Mountain to listen to their orders and bring them all away.


    As for where they were going, other than the Elders Guild, the rest of the people weren''t clear about it yet.


    However, the sect head of Ten Thousand Bone Sect, Xue Hou, did not continue. He immediately went insane and vowed to use up the last drop of his blood to fight the Constellation Mountain to the death.


    He shouted loudly and recruited many experts from the Qilin Mountain''s large sects who were unwilling to leave. He united them and changed them to the Qilin Sect. He called himself the great sect master and declared war on Constellation Mountain.


    A storm was brewing, and the final battle was coming.


    Within a palace that was thirty thousand meters deep underground, ten or so old men were seated in the lotus position like old monks!


    Most of them had their eyes closed, as if they had not moved for many years. They were all old people with an ancient aura that was as profound as the ocean.


    The Dark Void Valley Lord was impressively among them.


    Just at this moment, the elders who had their eyes closed opened their eyes in unison. One after another, shocking gazes shot out. They were ancient and heavy, as if they were old monsters that had never appeared in ten thousand years.


    "How''s everything going?"


    Sitting at the first seat was a ruddy old man with a long face. His voice was hoarse and without any emotion. It seemed as if the void was trembling in response to his voice.


    "Everything has been arranged. We can leave at any time. It''s just that Little Xue doesn''t listen to advice and is stubborn. Grand Elder, do I need to forcefully take him away?"


    An old man asked for instructions.


    "There''s no need. He has accumulated too much hatred in his heart. It is time to vent it out. In the end, when he is about to die, you will act and bring him to me." The Grand Elder instructed.


    "Yes." The old man who had spoken earlier replied.


    The grand elder''s ancient eyes swept across everyone''s faces and said expressionlessly, "The Constellation Mountain will launch its final attack tomorrow. In order to prevent future troubles, they will definitely use their dragon head weapons to flatten Qi Lin Mountain."


    His tone paused for a moment, before his expression suddenly became stern and said, "I estimate that I can only fire two head-end weapons at most. If both strikes hit the Qilin Mountain, the Holy Beasts would definitely wake up and disrupt the saint''s million year plan. I will not allow this to happen, as the saint''s plan is very important, I don''t think I need to remind you too much."


    When the other elders heard this, their expressions became serious.


    Suddenly, the Grand Elder looked at one of the elders. "Fourth Bro, you sacrifice yourself this time."


    "Yes sir!" The old man immediately responded.


    "At that time, I''ll take a strand of your remnant soul and wait for it to come back to life." The Great Elder said.


    The old man nodded heavily and did not say a word.


    At this moment, someone asked, "How do we block the second strike?"


    "Heh, as long as we don''t wake up the Holy Beasts, these are all minor problems. "Let them fend for themselves ¡­" The Grand Elder''s eyes were grim.


    The Dark Void Valley Lord opened his mouth and asked, "Great Elder, the secret of the Purple Flame Forest is not a small matter. I am a little worried."


    "There''s no need to worry. Even if Constellation Mountain discovers the secret of the Purple Flame Forest, it would be useless. If they want to obtain the resources within, then they can forget about it. If they fail, then it will bring disaster upon Constellation Mountain."

 C264

    The group of elders quickly transmitted their orders. In a short span of half a day, all of the Qilin Sect received the news and began to reorganize their disciples, preparing to leave this place.


    Xue Hou gathered the experts and changed them to the Qilin Sect. He called himself the sect head and led a group of Qilin Mountain experts in a bloody battle. He ignored the orders of the elders and was determined to fight to the death with Constellation Mountain.


    At this time, Lin Xing and Yun Die had already flown more than half the distance to the Qilin Mountain. In less than three days, they would be able to leave the Qilin Mountain peacefully.


    However, today, they met with unexpected mishap and missed their journey.


    Late at night, the moon was high in the sky, and the shadows were moving westward.


    Lin Xing and Yun Die appeared in a valley. A group of youths stood around them, looking at Lin Xing with unfriendly eyes. There were also many people who were busy packing their bags, preparing to set out on a long journey.


    "Yun Die, come with me. My love for you has never diminished, and in this life and death situation, the first thing I thought of was you. The senior of my sect had already left this afternoon, and I didn''t care about the sect master''s objections.


    A young man looked at Yun Die with infatuation, his voice also carrying a pleading tone. His right arm was always in front of him, waiting for Yun Die to extend her wrist.


    Lin Qi did not utter a word. He turned his face to look at Yun Die, but he was anxious. Because of this matter, his journey was delayed, and he did not want to stay any longer.


    As long as Yun Die said she didn''t want to, he could leave immediately with her. No one could stop her, not even the fourth ranked Wang Zhuo.


    Yun Die heard this and immediately responded. She bitterly shook her head and said, "Wang Zhuo, I''m sorry. I''m a servant right now, so I can''t make the decision. Thank you for your good intentions. If fate wills it, we will meet again."


    "Servant?" Wang Zhuo was stunned on the spot as if he was struck by lightning. He subconsciously shifted his gaze to Lin Qi.


    "Yes, this is the Valley Master''s order, I must follow Young Master."


    Yun Die and Wang Zhuo had a good relationship. She tried her best to be tactful and didn''t want to directly refuse.


    "This won''t do. You must come with me. If he dares to stop me, I''ll kill him."


    Wang Zhuo had gone mad. He had liked the cloud butterfly for a long time, and if they were to separate this time, it was unknown when they would meet again. It would be impossible to give up so easily, and it would be impossible for him to do so at the bottom of his heart.


    He grabbed Yun Die''s wrist, trying to drag her away with him. He did not even bother to consider what Lin Xing felt like.


    Clang...


    At this time, Lin Xing drew his sword. It was as fast as a stream of light, and the tip of the sword was pressed against Wang Zhuo''s chin.


    "Yun Die has made it very clear that if she doesn''t want to do this evil person, I will do it." "The meaning behind those words is that she is not willing to leave with you. With me here today, you have no hope at all."


    In fact, Lin Xing was also very depressed in his heart. He thought of the strange question Yun Die asked him about not long ago. It had only been a short while, and it had already become a reality.


    "You''re a junior-level character, I wonder where you got the guts to dance around in front of me with your spears and sticks? Little brother, the sword is very dangerous. If you still don''t feel at ease, I don''t mind taking your life. " Wang Zhuo turned around. His eyes were cold.


    "Then you can try." Lin Qi maintained his posture with the immortal sword in his hand as he replied in a lukewarm tone.


    Wang Zhuo was furious. If he didn''t kill Lin Xing today, it would be impossible to take Yun Die away.


    With a wave of his sleeve, the surrounding people immediately surrounded him. All kinds of power were locked onto Lin Qi''s body.


    "Wang Zhuo, don''t be too excessive. Don''t forget, my cultivation level isn''t that far from yours. If you dare to touch young master today, don''t blame me for not remembering our old friendship." Yun Die broke away from his grasp and stood on the same side as Lin Xing without hesitation.


    As these words were spoken, everyone''s expression was different.


    Lin Qi took a deep glance at Yun Die and felt his heart sink for the first time. He couldn''t help but tighten his grip on the celestial sword.


    Wang Zhuo, on the other hand, was thrown into disarray. This was simply unbelievable. His roar was like thunder and was about to go crazy.


    An angry roar resounded, and a red light flashed in his eyes as he constantly directed his killing intent towards Lin Qi.


    After a long while, the killing intent was finally lifted, but the anger and despair on his face continued to increase.


    "Yun Die, you forced me to do this."


    Wang Zhuo let out a roar and an ice device appeared out of nowhere from his hand. He threw it over Lin Xing and Yun Die''s heads.


    When Yun Die saw the ice device, her expression changed drastically as she cried out, "Freezing Sky Seal!"


    A sudden sense of danger arose in Lin Qi''s heart. At this moment, he did not go to defend against the Freezing Sky Seal. Instead, he took out the Black God''s Bow and placed it on the Immortal Sword.


    "Cloud Butterfly, quick, transform!" he shouted.


    Yun Die was stunned and didn''t understand what he meant, but she still followed his instructions and immediately turned into a dark blue butterfly.


    Lin Xing took out the dark blue butterfly and placed it on the celestial sword. The Black God Bow quickly turned into a full moon and with a "sou" sound, the celestial sword flew out along with the butterfly.


    "Wait for me at a place 500 km away from Qilin Mountain."


    Yun Die didn''t even have time to react and was sent flying by Lin Xing. The celestial sword flew through the sky like a meteor and disappeared without a trace.


    In the next moment, a hundred feet around Lin Xing was piled with ice cubes, tightly sealing him inside.

 C265

    Layers of ice seamlessly linked together, trapping Lin Xing within like a small iceberg. This was a seal that even a domain stage martial artist would find it difficult to break through.


    Detecting the thickness of an iceberg, Lin Qi felt some despair. It was simply a hundred times harder than fine iron. Even if he could break through it, it would be incomparably difficult. Most importantly, it would take a lot of time.


    He shot Yun Die at the last moment, telling her to leave the Qilin Mountain as soon as possible and get out of danger. Wang Zhuo and the surrounding people didn''t expect this.


    His actions shocked everyone. At the last moment, they didn''t care about their own dangers and sent Yun Die away.


    "Ha, but this is good, I originally did not have the intention to kill the Cloud Butterfly, I actually would not kill you, with your cultivation, if you want to break this Freezing Sky seal, without three days, you will not be able to do so, even if you break it after three days, the people from Constellation Mountain have already arrived, at that time, someone will come to deal with you, there is no need for me to do anything." Wang Zhuo was startled and then sneered.


    "You kept saying that you liked her, but today it seems that you like her a lot of hypocrisy. I can tell you the truth, even if Yun Die agreed to go with you now, I still wouldn''t agree to let her fall into your hands."


    Wang Zhuo''s face sank. His body couldn''t help but start twitching. Lin Xing''s words had touched his soul.


    "Enough, as for what I am, I don''t need a small figure like you to evaluate me. Let me also tell you the truth, in order to borrow Constellation Mountain''s blade to kill you, I''m willing to use my most valuable Heavenly Cold Seal to deal with you. Even if you die, you should rest in peace."


    Wang Zhuo shouted in anger. He didn''t personally kill Lin Qi because he didn''t want to feel too much guilt in front of Yun Die, so he did this.


    In any case, the unchangeable truth was that if anything happened to Lin Xing, Yun Die would never forgive him.


    "Let''s go, leave Qilin Mountain." Let him wait here for his death. "


    Wang Zhuo waved his sleeves and left. He led the group of people that had packed up to the top of the valley.


    After they left, Lin Xing raised his head and gazed at the Freezing Sky Seal suspended in the air. He then looked at the surrounding ice mountain for a long time. He remained silent and did not do anything for a long time.


    After a quarter of an hour, he took out his most powerful weapon, the Ice Demon Sword. He activated the third wave divine sword technique and slashed madly towards an ice mountain.


    Clang! Clang ¡­


    Sparks flew in all directions as the sword landed, but that block of ice was only left with a scratch. Even with the third strike, that cut only slightly deepened.


    However, instead of being surprised, Lin Qi was overjoyed. He was confident that he could break the Freezing Sky seal within half a day.


    Wang Zhuo said that he wouldn''t be able to break through in three days. However, he did not know that Lin Xing''s battle prowess was far beyond the Heaven Smiting Stage. Not only that, he was also a sword immortal who was famous for his powerful attacks.


    The next morning, a ray of gentle sunlight shone on a blade of grass. The sunlight shone on the sky, enveloping the entire world with its heavenly might.


    Following that, huge stars began to appear in the east. The light they emitted was even more resplendent than the morning sun. An incomparable might swept through the world, causing the entire sky to tremble.


    Eternal Star Diagram!


    At this moment, everyone in Qilin Mountain exploded.


    "Oh my god, the people from Constellation Mountain are using the dragon head weapon."


    "The people from Constellation Mountain have gone mad. They''re trying to destroy our Qilin Mountain."


    The order to move the Elders Guild was issued yesterday. Up until now, only half of the disciples of Qi Lin Mountain had safely left.


    The other people either didn''t have the time to leave, or they were experts that followed Xue Hou and fought with their lives on the line.


    At this moment, when they felt that energy that was akin to heavenly might, without exception, they all felt despair.


    Previously, there were indeed rumors that Constellation Mountain didn''t hesitate to use their dragon head weapons to flatten the entire Qilin Mountain. However, most people scoffed at this statement and did not believe it.


    The dragon head weapon was the treasure of Constellation Mountain. It was only used when one''s life was at stake. Normally, they wouldn''t easily bring it out to prevent an accident.


    But now, in order to conquer a Qilin Mountain, they had actually invited even the dragon head weapon. The people of Constellation Mountain had truly gone mad; they had hardened their hearts to flatten the Qilin Mountain.


    Before even needing to use the dragon head weapon, the souls of everyone in Qilin Mountain were sent flying. Countless people scattered in all directions, and they only hoped to leave as soon as possible.


    Under the stars that covered the sky, a group of experts flew out. They were all like true gods and were incomparably powerful. They descended here to try and kill this place.


    The leader was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He had a radiant face, fair skin, and a slightly feminine face. He wore a robe, and with a single step, he looked like a god.


    He coldly swept his eyes over the Qilin''s great earth, the corner of his mouth curling up into a smile of contempt.


    He was the commander sent by Constellation Mountain to attack Qi Lin Mountain, Star God.


    Behind him, a group of experts flew through the air towards him. Most of them were old men, and they were also monsters rarely seen in Constellation Mountain. This time, they had all come out of the world.


    The ones closest to the Star God were two young men. One of them was the God Child who fought with Hidden Heart yesterday, and the other one had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. His identity was self-evident, and he was also a God Child.

 C266

    It wasn''t enough for the Star God to bring a dragon head weapon, but he actually brought a group of experts with him. Following his command, all of the Constellation Mountain experts scattered throughout the Qilin Mountain quickly approached where he was.


    "After today, there will be no more Qilin mountains in the world. This place will become the thirteenth mountain of my Constellation Mountain."


    The robed Star God looked down at the earth like a true god, his voice was like thunder, penetrating straight into the soul, and it seemed to spread throughout the entire world.


    At the same time, Lin Xing also broke through the Freezing Sky seal and walked out of the ice mountain. With a slightly exhausted expression, he went up to the ice mountain and stored the Freezing Sky Seal into his soul hole.


    His heart sank into the abyss. Just as he was about to turn around and run away, he saw an old man falling from the sky, landing far away from the Star God.


    That old man was wearing a black robe, and because he was too far away, even Lin Qi could not see him clearly. However, the ancient aura he exuded was like a deep ocean, terrifying even the soul.


    "Fourth Elder!"


    At this moment, everyone in Qilin Mountain saw the old man that descended from the sky, and surprise and joy ceaselessly sounded out within the ravines of the mountains.


    The people who were running for their lives also stopped and looked up at the old man with strange light in their eyes.


    "Star God, my group of elders has already agreed to withdraw from Mount Qilin. Why do you still need to use your dragon head weapon, carbon life!"


    The Fourth Elder was expressionless. His old eyes stared at the Star God as he questioned him.


    The Star God looked at him, then raised his head to look at the Myriad Stars Atlas above his head. He said in a neutral tone, "If I don''t kill all of you, then even if my Constellation Mountain occupies the Qilin Mountain, it still wouldn''t be stable. This isn''t just an order from the High Lord, it''s also an order from my Constellation Elder Group."


    "Since things have already come to this, there''s no point in speaking any further. Since you want to use your dragon head weapon to conquer the Qilin Mountain, then come."


    The Fourth Elder stepped into the air and took one step after another. Every step he took caused the entire world to tremble.


    He was too powerful. Everyone was overwhelmed with shock, and even the Star God was no exception. A hint of dread flashed through his eyes.


    Even though the Star God was at least at the rank of a clan elder, the Fourth Elder was clearly more terrifying. In front of the dragon head weapon, he actually remained calm and composed.


    Lin Xing was certain that besides the "hate", the Fourth Elder was the strongest person he had ever seen in his life. Even the sect elders such as the Ascending Sky and Giant Spirit were unable to compare to him.


    He couldn''t help but be curious about the Qilin Elder Group. If a Fourth Elder was so terrifying, then the Great Elder and Second Elder above him ¡­ And what kind of expert was this?


    Thinking up to this point, there really was no reason for such a terrifying group of people to give in so easily to the Constellation Mountain and hand over the Qilin Mountain. Lin Xing suspected that there might be an earth-shattering secret hidden here.


    "Are you really not afraid of death?"


    The Star God''s expression was heavy. His voice was like a thunderclap that exploded between heaven and earth. He looked at the Fourth Elder who was approaching step by step with a gaze as sharp as knives.


    He had the dragon head weapon. Not to mention Fourth Elder coming in person, even if the Qilin Elder came, he still wouldn''t be afraid. However, the fearless spirit of Fourth Elder made him feel cold from the bottom of his heart.


    "For the sake of Qi Lin Mountain, this old man is fearless. What''s there to be afraid of?"


    The Fourth Elder''s steps were steady, neither fast nor slow, as if they could fuse with the world itself and cause the entire world to shake.


    Seeing that he was getting closer and closer, a cold light flashed in the Star God''s eyes. He no longer hesitated and coldly said: "Then it shall be as you wish."


    "Boom!"


    After the surrounding experts received the order, they immediately activated the Myriad Stars Painting. In the blink of an eye, the stars in the sky appeared on top of the paper, shining brightly and jumping up and down violently.


    Following that, the heavenly might descended. The divine might was like a prison, and a blazing light shot out from within.


    The volume of the light was not large, but the terrifying power it emitted caused everyone to be moved. It was as if it was the might of the heavens, and no one could resist it.


    The heavens had truly bestowed upon him such manpower. Ye Zichen truly agreed with that.


    However, the Fourth Elder did not stop. She was still walking.


    Crazy!


    This was the only thought that came to Lin Qi''s mind at this moment. The Fourth Elder had gone insane.


    He actually wanted to use his body to fight against the dragon head weapon.


    His body was glowing with a golden light, as though he had transformed into a sun god. A golden halo appeared around three feet above his head, enveloping him within.


    He was an absolute body expert!


    In the next moment, the blazing light and the fourth master clashed perfectly against each other. Suddenly, the sky was filled with fiery sparks as layers of impact power shook the entire world. The huge explosion nearly collapsed the sky.


    The fourth elder had done it. He had truly used his dragon head weapon to successfully block the attack high up in the sky. The Qilin Mountain had not affected him at all.


    However, he had completely turned into ashes.


    As the flames fell from the sky, not even a speck was left. In order to block this attack, the Fourth Elder had to pay with his life.


    "Fourth Elder!"


    Everyone in Qilin Mountain went mad when they saw this scene. Their heads were split open and they hugged their heads as they cried. Their eyes were completely red, and some people even charged towards the Star God''s group without caring about the price.


    "Humph!"


    The Star God let out a cold snort. A disdainful voice rang out, "Again!"


    Following that, another blazing light shot out from the Myriad Stars Painting. Its power was stronger than the previous one, but after two strikes, the Myriad Stars Painting also dimmed a little, as if it had lost some of its spirituality.


    Lin Qi''s expression completely changed as he stared at the blazing light rapidly shooting towards him.


    That was because the place where the blazing light was going to land was less than ten thousand kilometers away from him.


    If the Dragon Head Weapon were to land on the ground, it would at least destroy half of the Qilin''s back mountain.


    As for where Lin Ming was standing, it was right in the area he was standing.

 C267

    Lin Qi was not the only one who was in despair. Everyone who was within the range of that one attack felt their hearts break. Despair and despair filled their hearts.


    Lin Qi felt as if his heart had fallen into an abyss. He knew that he would die for sure, so he simply closed his eyes.


    In the next moment, a blazing light descended!


    BOOM!


    However, the ground behind the Qilin was flipped upside down. Mountains collapsed and the ground cracked open. Layers of explosive power crazily spread.


    Within this range, no one could survive. In front of a dragon head weapon, no one could get lucky.


    They didn''t even scream, nor did they feel any pain. In that instant, their souls were completely destroyed.


    Only after the time it took an incense stick to burn had passed did the world return to tranquility.


    As for the majority of the mountains behind the Qilin, they had all become ruins.


    "Cough, cough!"


    Suddenly, a slightly weak cough could be heard from the rubble, followed by a miserable figure slowly standing up from the sand.


    A layer of golden light enveloped his body like a protective barrier, allowing him to luckily survive the attack of the dragon head''s weapon.


    And he was Lin Xing.


    Just now, when the golden mace woke up, it automatically shielded him. Sensing that his master was in danger, it immediately released a powerful energy to protect him.


    However, after being struck by this attack, his trump card lost its consciousness and fell into a deep slumber once again. Even the Golden Bead that was stuck close to him had become dim.


    He was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and his body was in extreme pain. Even though he was protected by his golden mace at the last moment, he was still wounded by that shocking attack.


    "He didn''t die?"


    The Star God and the other Constellation Mountain experts standing in the sky were all taken aback when they saw Lin Qi slowly stand up from the ruins. Even they found it hard to believe.


    As well as the Qilin Mountain''s survivors that hadn''t been affected yet, when they saw this scene, they couldn''t believe it either. They felt as if they were dreaming; it was too fake.


    Just now, the Fourth Elder had used his physical body to fight against the dragon head''s weapon, and with his shocking cultivation level, he had fallen. But now, in front of him, a mere Heaven Smiting Stage cultivator had actually survived.


    No one would believe what was happening in front of them.


    Lin Xing retrieved a handful of elixirs from his soul cave, opened his mouth, and swallowed them all. After wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth, he turned around and ran out of Qilin Mountain.


    "He has a strange treasure with him. Send out powerful experts to bring him back." The Star God''s gaze was locked onto Lin Qi, and he couldn''t help but feel excited.


    After receiving the order, the group of seniors behind him wanted to act, but their sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes blocked the God Child. They turned to the Star God and said, "Lord Star God, leave this person to me."


    "That''s fine too, we must bring it back, there must not be any mistakes." The Star God said solemnly.


    At the same time, a red figure flashed past the eyes of the other God Child. The corner of his mouth raised into an excited smile as he said to the Star God, "Lord Star God, I''ll hide my intentions. Today, I''ll definitely take his head."


    The Star God narrowed his eyes and nodded at the same time. This time, he didn''t bring the two Divine Children here to watch a show, but to let them deal with the Qilin''s twin hearts.


    "Shen Tian, how about we make a bet?" The God Child with the starry eyes and sword-shaped eyebrows said playfully. He was not in a hurry to chase after Lin Qi.


    The God Child called Shen Tian rubbed his chin and said, "I wonder what Yulin wants to bet?"


    "We''ll chase one each. Whoever obtains their head first will win, and the wager will be one hundred top quality spirit crystals." Yu Lin said.


    Shen Tian gave a muffled snort, "Please look carefully before speaking. I have been hiding my intentions, and the person you want to kill is only a junior at the Heaven Smiting Stage. How can the two be compared?"


    "Heh heh, you don''t know, right? Tong Wu and Xie Xiang died in the hands of this juniors at the Heaven Smiting Stage." Yu Lin''s killing intent filled the air.


    "Oh? To think that such a thing would happen. Very well, I agree to this wager. "


    As the sound of his voice faded, Shen Tian stepped out into the air.


    Upon seeing this, Yu Lin flew towards Lin Xing''s hiding spot.


    "Send out experts to slaughter everyone in Qilin Mountain. The High Lords ordered that those who obtain Xue Hou''s head will be placed in the mountains as a god."


    After the two left, Star God issued a killing order.

 C268

    The camera shifted to Lin Qi. He first ran out of the ruins at an extremely fast speed, then quickly ran out of the Qilin Mountain Range.


    At the same time, some of the Qilin Mountain experts that survived dispersed at this moment, fleeing in separate directions.


    Of course, the powerhouses that survived weren''t in the range of the dragon head weapon''s attack. Aside from Lin Xing, no one else survived in the ruins. There were at least five hundred thousand people left, all dead on the spot.


    Lin Qi ran as fast as he could and channeled all of his power. He only arrived at the edge of the Qilin''s back mountain when it was night time.


    If he continued forward, he would be able to charge out of the Qilin Mountain.


    However, he had felt a soul force locked onto him from the start. Looking back, he saw that a young man was chasing him through the air, chasing him from the dawn to the dusk, from the Qilin Mountain Range to the outside of the mountain.


    A domain was formed around that person, enveloping a circumference of 100 miles. It was so powerful that it looked like a domain genius. Lin Xing guessed that this was most likely one of the God Children of Constellation Mountain.


    Lin Qi was shocked, but he was not afraid. While he was running, he was also using the Pulse Pushing Technique and taking medicine to heal his wounds.


    In order to escape, he took two days to complete the journey.


    In the distant skies, Yu Lin frowned for an entire day!


    "It''s not wrong that you and Xie Xiang were able to kill you. You really do have some skills, but no one dares to kill my Constellation Mountain disciples, not even the people from the Ghost God Mountain. You must use your life to repay them."


    After chasing for an entire day, he still hadn''t been able to touch even a single corner of Lin Xing Yi''s body. He was a true domain expert, and Lin Xing''s strength wasn''t even close to that of Jie Kong''s.


    He groaned as his body accelerated and flew across the sky like a meteor.


    After a while, the sky turned completely dark. There was no sun or moon in the sky tonight. It was a bit depressing, like a layer of black cloth covering the land.


    At this moment, Lin Xing stopped in his tracks and stood in the middle of a forest, waiting for the arrival of the Constellation Mountain God''s Son.


    Whoosh ¡­


    In the next moment, Yu Lin descended from the sky, stepped on the air, and hovered in the air not far in front of him.


    "Tell me your name, and I won''t kill nameless people." Yu Lin towered above him like an emperor.


    Lin Qi wiped away some sweat and said, "What a coincidence, I''m just a nobody. Can you spare me from killing you?"


    Yu Lin frowned and his expression turned cold. An electric arc shot out from his hand and his body rushed out, striking towards Lin Xing''s palm.


    "Chi!"


    Lin Xing took out his Ice Demon Sword and quickly retreated. At the same time, he slashed out a sword light to dissipate the electric arcs.


    "Lin Xing."


    He pressed his feet to the ground and moved backwards. His expression was as still as a mountain as he announced his name.


    "Who are you?"


    "Constellation Mountain, Twin Fish Hall''s God Child, Yu Lin."


    Yu Lin stared fixedly at Lin Xing as he announced his name with a rather arrogant tone. His body rushed over, bringing with it a large amount of Heavenly Yuan.


    "I''ve heard that the 12 God Children of Constellation Mountain all have heaven-defying talents and all belong to the Jade Dragon''s Canon. For me to be able to fight with you today is also my greatest honor."


    Lin Xing''s words came from the depths of his heart. He had long heard of the name of the Son of the Mountain God. To be able to confront such a young master, he felt honored and honored.


    This was a rare opportunity to temper himself. Today, he would go all out and accept the challenge!


    "You aren''t simple either. With your spatial level strength, if you are allowed to grow freely by killing two of my most outstanding disciples, even I cannot guarantee that I will be able to suppress you. Today, I will no longer give you the chance to live. "


    Yu Lin halted his steps. The Heavenly Source around him continued to increase without diminishing in size. His battle intent surged like a deep ocean, and his face revealed an unconcealed seriousness.


    "Alright. Of the two of us today, only one will be able to leave this place alive. "


    Lin Qi had always desired to fight with a proud son of heaven like this. His fighting spirit was unending, and his deep eyes were filled with fire and tenacity.


    Puchi ¡­


    In the next moment, the two of them rushed out at the same time, their arcs turning into blades and their sword light dancing in the air. In the time it took for a spark to fly off of a piece of flint, the two of them executed over a hundred moves simultaneously, their movements faster than lightning by a hundred times.


    "You are very strong."


    "You are very strong as well."


    Before he finished his sentence, the two rushed out at the same time once again, creating another series of collisions.


    Lin Qi held the ice demon sword in his hand. At this time, his blade technique and Immortal Burying sword skill were completely useless and he could only execute the third level Divine Sword skill. Even so, the third sword strike was unable to break through the Heavenly Source around Yu Lin.


    Yu Lin frowned. A large amount of heaven origin energy surged around his body as a heavenly technique appeared out of nowhere. A sea of lightning appeared around him, and arcs of electricity flashed about as golden snakes danced wildly, making him appear like a thunder god.


    "Pa ¡­"


    Bolts of lightning blotted out the sky and covered the earth. Lin Xing used the Ice Demon Sword to block for a while and felt his arm go numb. He decided to retract the Ice Demon Sword and use his physical body to defend.


    Star Shifting Art!


    Stars light radiated from his body as he slowly released his powerful aura. At the same time, he used the Sky Concealment Technique to knock away all the electric arcs that were shooting at him.

 C269

    The brilliant starlight spread out across Lin Xing''s skin, causing a qualitative change in his physique. Suddenly, he became indestructible. As the arcs of electricity crashed into him, they were rendered useless, not even able to scratch his skin.


    Seeing this, Yu Lin knew that the electric arcs were useless. Therefore, he immediately withdrew his electric sea. Then, he formed some strange hand seals with his hands. The originally dark sky suddenly transformed into stars one after another.


    This was another heavenly technique.


    And it was a technique that was infinitely close to an Empyrean level secret skill.


    A large part of the stars appeared on the paper, ready to move. They seemed to be alive as they jumped about and emitted buzzing sounds. Yu Lin waved his sleeve, and the stars instantly fell down in an earth-shattering manner.


    However, this was far from enough. At the same time, a drop of water appeared in the palm of his right hand. He flicked his finger and the drop of water shot out.


    When the two most powerful attacks appeared, Lin Xing''s complexion changed. His brows furrowed as he once again took out the Ice Demon Sword from his soul hole. At the same time, five black lights appeared out of nowhere and struck the stars in the sky.


    Puff puff ¡­


    Lin Xing used his Blade Replenishing Sword Skill to block all of the water droplets. However, even if they were supreme divine tools, the Ice Demon Sword, because it had blocked too many of the damage, it still dimmed a little, as if it had lost some of its spirituality.


    At the same time, under the sky, white light surged. Five black lamps circled around each other, shining resplendently like a bright moon.


    Boom ¡­


    Violent explosions followed one after another. The stars in the sky were all blocked by the black light. After colliding, they exploded, causing the two spells to disappear without a trace.


    Pfft.


    Lin Qi withdrew his injured Ice Demon Sword and took out a celestial sword. He leaped forward and attacked Yu Lin, preparing to engage him in close combat.


    Up until now, the two of them had been battling very few close-combat battles. Therefore, the two of them did not sustain any injuries. However, their complexions were extremely pale. This was the result of excessive consumption.


    Seeing him rush over, Yu Lin decisively retreated and did not dare to face him head on. He had long since heard of the sword immortal''s fierce attacks. Even though he had comprehended a barrier, he did not dare to directly clash with him.


    A large amount of water droplets condensed in front of him, freezing him in mid air. After which, with a "pu" sound, they shot out in a continuous stream, blocking Lin Xing''s path.


    Lin Qi who had struggled so hard to get close to him naturally wouldn''t let go of this opportunity. He held the Ice Demon Sword horizontally in front of him, his body rushing forward, splitting apart heaven and earth.


    Puff ¡­


    Three drops of water pierced through his body, and blood started to flow from the wound. He originally had a chance to dodge, but he didn''t want to miss this chance to engage in close combat.


    The two sword strikes cut through the air as the third sword strike landed. It brought about a monstrous might as the afterimages of the celestial swords resounded throughout the desolate lands.


    Yu Lin immediately dodged to the side. An enormous bolt of lightning emerged from his palm and sent the ice demon sword flying. At the same time, it extended towards Lin Xing''s body, injuring him.


    However, the power of the third strike was too terrifying. Even if he managed to dodge the sword move, he was still unable to dodge the sharp sword beam.


    "Star Shift!"


    Yu Lin roared as he raised both his hands high above his head. Following that, a sun and moon began to appear in the sky, displaying astonishing fluctuations.


    The Great Honored Warrior Secret Art.


    Lin Xing''s expression changed. As he executed this move, he felt as if his soul had been shocked out of his mind. The entire world was spinning upside down, and layers of space passed in front of him.


    "Samsara Heart Technique."


    Lin Xing immediately stuck the Ice Demon Sword into the ground and pointed both of his fingers outwards. At the same time, a gust of wind blew out as a majestic energy merged into the universe.


    This was the Sky Concealment Spell given to him by Mo Zishi. He had been cultivating for a long time, but had never brought it out against an enemy. And this Sky Concealment Spell, even though it was not a Supreme Concealment Spell, it was still extremely close.


    The moment he executed the Reincarnation Heart Technique, it seemed to cause the heaven and earth to resonate. The endless cycle of reincarnation continued to circulate in the universe. At the same time, shocking scenes appeared one after another in the minds of the two.


    The changing of the sun and the moon would reverse time, but the mental cultivation method of the reincarnation cycle would clear up the mess and put the abnormal phenomena back on the right track.


    "Yu Lin, sink into the cycle of reincarnation."

 C270

    The sun and moon shone brightly on the screen, enveloping him like a heavenly prison. Layers of pressure continued to descend, causing his skin to burst open and fresh blood to gush out.


    However, at the final moment, he activated the Reincarnation Heart Technique, pulling the chaotic space back into its normal path and entering Yu Lin''s heart.


    "Ah ¡­"


    His soul was deeply submerged in the Samsara Heart Technique, as if he was trapped within an endless sea of darkness. No matter where he went, the only road left for him was death.


    Yu Lin was in despair. He was overwhelmed with shock and he wanted to pull out his mind, but he discovered that no matter what he did, he was unable to do it.


    Lin Xing was also in a tough spot. He was locked in place by the sun and moon. Needless to say, the terrifying might of the secret arts of the Great Honored Warrior, being able to persevere to this point, was already his limit.


    Puff ¡­


    However, at this moment, Yu Lin''s body fell from the sky, covered in wounds and blood from head to toe. His appearance was not much stronger than Lin Ming''s, especially his pale face, which was terrifyingly pale without a single trace of blood.


    Having lost the support of his soul force, the sun and moon in the sky instantly disappeared. Lin Xing decisively pulled out his Ice Demon Sword and charged towards Yu Lin.


    Domain!


    Of course, Yu Lin wouldn''t wait helplessly for death. His domain immediately took shape and enveloped the entire area, as well as the various elemental energies within the natural world.


    The oncoming Lin Xing decisively lifted up his arm, as if he had transformed into a giant ancient beast, completely crushing all the obstacles in front of him.


    Yu Lin, who was severely injured, was sent flying by Feng Li as expected. His body rolled for five miles before all the Heavenly Source energy in his body disappeared. His body appeared extremely weak as he struggled to sit up.


    He had lost, lost in the hands of someone at the Heaven Smiting Stage!


    He was the God Child of Constellation Mountain, and there was really no reason for him to lose. The only thing he could do was to say that Lin Xing was too terrifying.


    Just as he raised his head, he saw a cold blade pressing against his throat, and the silhouette of a young man in front of him was infinitely large.


    "Why didn''t you use a teleportation technique?" "You know that even though I respect you, I will not spare your life if you end up in my hands. Our positions are different, the victor is the king and the loser is the thief. The only thing that remains is sympathy." Lin Xing asked with an indifferent expression.


    "I don''t need your sympathy." Yu Lin roared as if he had gone mad, and continued, "You''re right, as long as I use the Teleportation Technique, a clan elder will descend from my Constellation Mountain. At that time, not only will I live, but you will also die.


    "However, defeat is defeat. My strong heart has been broken, and even if I survive, I will become a zombie. I will not even live as long as a dog. So I don''t want to. As long as I am alive, I will not be willing to give in to others. "


    As he finished speaking in one breath, lightning arced in Yu Lin''s hands and he smacked himself in the forehead, using his last bit of heaven origin energy to end his own life.


    Yu Lin committed suicide and his body immediately exploded. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and even his soul was destroyed, forever dissipating.


    The destruction of the soul also meant the destruction of his soul cave as well as the treasures within it. This also dispelled the thought of Lin Xing wanting to obtain his treasure.


    Lin Qi looked up at the sky and saw the sun slowly rising from the east. Before he knew it, an entire night had passed.


    He let out three long sighs with a complicated expression on his face. Yu Lin was an expert worthy of respect. If he did not lose to him this time, he would definitely become a person who could become a god in the future.


    At the same time, high up in the sky above the Qilin Mountain, the Star God was directing the experts of the Constellation Mountain to annihilate the survivors.


    Suddenly, an old man arrived in the sky. His face was heavy as he said with great difficulty, "Lord Star God, the Soul Lamp of God Child Yu Lin has been extinguished."


    "What!"


    The Star God was shocked. Not waiting for him to get angry, another elder walked over. This elder''s expression was also incomparably heavy as he said with a trembling voice, "Lord Star God, Shen Tian''s Soul Lamp is also extinguished."


    "Heavens, who can tell me what is going on? Both of them have precious treasures on them, so even if the clan elder wanted to kill them, it would be impossible to do so in one shot. Why didn''t they use a teleportation technique? "


    The Star God went mad and roared continuously. The heaven and earth trembled along with his voice. "Aoo ¡­"


    "Perhaps they are unwilling to use it." Some old men sighed.


    "Humph, in a single day you''ve lost two of my divine sons. How am I supposed to explain this to the High Lords when I go back? Send someone to chase them down. If I''m dead, I want to see their corpses!"


    The Star God was infuriated. His eyes were bloodshot as his voice suddenly became extremely hoarse. With a single order, a large group of experts split up and chased after him.


    The camera returned to Lin Xing. After Yu Lin committed suicide, he was paralyzed on the ground, extremely weak. He did not even have the strength to lift his sword.


    Suddenly, a young girl appeared in front of him and fed him a pill.


    "Young Master, how did you get injured like this?" Yun Die asked in a sobbing tone after checking his injuries.


    "The God Child of Constellation Mountain really isn''t that easy to kill." Lin Xing replied weakly.


    "What?"


    Yun Die stood in a daze, using all her strength to shake her ears, wondering if she had heard wrongly.


    "Don''t ask, I''ll tell you when I have time. Immediately bring me out of here. The people of Constellation Mountain won''t let this go." Lin Xing said in a serious tone.


    "Okay, but where are we going? Heaven Mending Sect? " Yun Die nodded and asked.


    "Let''s not go to the Heaven Mending Sect for now. Let''s go to the Heavy Sect''s territory and find a place to hide to treat my injuries!" Lin Xing replied.

 C271

    The sun and the moon flew past each other, and two months quietly passed by ¡­


    And in this short period of two months, the ground of the Heaven''s End had become a constant sensation.


    Two months ago, Star God entered Qi Lin Mountain with his dragon head weapon. He almost destroyed the Qilin Mountain and sent experts to chase after it, causing at least a million casualties. And this was said to only activate 20% of the dragon head weapon''s power.


    His brain replenished the power of the dragon head that had been activated, causing everyone in the Heaven''s End ground to shudder.


    However, the more terrifying thing was that during this battle, the two divine sons of Constellation Mountain had perished. The upper echelons of Constellation Mountain were furious and they sent out all of their experts to search for the murderer and the remnants of Qilin Mountain.


    The God Child''s fall was a greater blow than the death of a clan elder.


    The Twelve God Children of Constellation Mountain were all peerless geniuses trained by Heavenly Treasures. They were all destined to become God''s descendants. However, they didn''t want to die so easily. All their hard work and effort from the past had gone to waste.


    However, what caused people to feel strange was that since the matchless battle, the people that moved from the Qilin Mountain had all disappeared, as if they had vanished from the world. The Qilin expert had never appeared on the Heavenly Jue Plains again!


    There was another piece of news that was also quietly sweeping through the land of Heaven''s End ¡­


    Separated by an endless sea and a distant Gate of Heavenly Mystery, they endured patiently for many years before finally sending out their vanguard troops in an attempt to break into the Heaven''s End land and move their sect here.


    However, the Gate of Heavenly Mystery was not willing to become a small sect. As soon as they stepped onto the stage, they took the 16th rank on the Heavenly Jue Sect''s rankings.


    An outsider actually dared to be so arrogant. Not to mention the Gu Yu sect being anxious, even some of the other famous sects couldn''t stand watching. Many sects had sent out their experts to support the Gu Yu sect.


    The leader of the vanguard sent by the Gate of Heavenly Mystery was a fairy called ''Little Cold''. It could only be described as amazing. The power of this celestial spell was something that not even the seniors of the Celestial Sect could compare to.


    The Under Heaven Sword Sect, ranked fifth on the Sect Rankings, had sent a Domain Lord Disciple to assist the Gu Yu sect in their battle. They wanted to fight with the little kid Leng one on one, but they didn''t expect to lose three moves in a row.


    As for the name of Xiao Liang, he was gradually heard throughout the land of Heaven''s End. He was seen as a character who was even more heaven defying than the Constellation Mountain''s Son.


    Because Lin Xing was in closed-door seclusion for his tribulation, he had not received any news regarding this matter.


    In the region of the Heavy Sect that was extremely far away from the Qilin Mountain, there was a desolate stretch of land with no signs of human life.


    Suddenly, the sky shook, and a sound rang out. It was like a bell, yet not a bell. It was like a drum, yet not a drum. It was extremely strange. However, the energy it emitted was not the slightest bit inferior to the might of the dragon head weapon.


    The voice of the heavens!


    Lin Qi''s silhouette emerged from the peak of a mountain. After two months of seclusion, he had broken through the speed of light without a doubt and stepped into the first small realm, the Stellar Mountain Realm.


    His cultivation had long since stepped into the perfect stage of the Heaven Smiting Stage, but because of the existence of the Voice of Heaven, he had been suppressing it.


    The Heaven''s Jue Earth was vast and boundless, and it seemed to have an end to chaos. Two months ago, Yun Die had taken him to the land of the important sects, borrowing five commercial teleportation formations and spending another half a month before arriving.


    After arriving here, he first found a place in the wilderness to heal his injuries, then began to run at top speed. Just a moment ago, he stepped into the heaven''s speed and landed at the sound of the voice.


    Cloud Butterfly was standing at the side of the mountain, observing the surroundings from time to time, looking up at Lin Qi''s elegant demeanor.


    His body soared into the air, and although his expression was solemn, there was no fear in his expression. The wind blew out, making him look like a mythical ancient beast.


    BOOM!


    As soon as the voice of the heavens rang out, an enormous stone monument appeared under the skies.


    The stone tablet was as big as a mountain, concealing the sun and moon. It was heavy and dark, covered with patterns, and it gave off a strong oppressive feeling.


    This was the Pantheon Monument, personally created by the heavens. It was specially used to suppress heaven-defying characters.


    In the darkness of the sky, the Pantheon Monument was faintly discernible. The lower part of its body was covered by a layer of black energy, and only half of it was visible. At the top, however, countless despairing howls could be heard.


    Since ancient times, who knew how many heaven-defying characters had been killed by the Pantheon Monument, and their souls were all collected inside. They would never enter the cycle of reincarnation, and they would never be destroyed.


    Therefore, the Pantheon Monument had another name: God Prison.


    If it weren''t for the fact that they were determined, just the desperate screams that came from the God Suppression Tombstone would have caused one''s mind to collapse and their soul to dissipate in fear. "Aoo ¡­"


    Unlike last time, his flying speed was controlled by the gods. This time, he was able to control it completely. Lin Xing did not slow down at all. He maintained a medium speed the entire time.


    Closer!


    He gradually closed the distance between himself and the tombstone. The energy shrouded in darkness became increasingly heavy, causing the light on his skin to slowly dim.


    Boom ¡­


    Suddenly, an astonishing explosion occurred. No attacks had fallen from the sky before, and the dark space trembled. Soon after, a bloody figure appeared from the darkness.

 C272

    "Young master..." Over the past hundred years, there have not been more than five people in the Heavenly Jue Land who have attracted the attention of the Pantheon Monument. "


    Yun Die''s voice trembled as she looked up at the sky. Her worried face was glowing with a strange light.


    BOOM!


    Another explosion resounded as the bloody figure in the darkness became even clearer. His entire body was covered in blood and his expression was contorted with pain, to the point that his face was slightly contorted.


    At the same time that Lin Qi was shocked, there was a bit of luck in his heart.


    The image of the old man appeared in his mind. Those ten thousand top quality spirit crystal flowers were worth it at all.


    He hadn''t thought that those ten thousand top grade spirit crystals would save his life at this moment.


    If it weren''t for old man Feng''s strange reminder, Lin Xing would have died without a burial ground with his small physique, if he had rushed into the sky and activated the Voice of Heaven.


    Even so, there were still many bloody wounds on his body. Dark red blood flowed out, and the stars on his skin had almost completely disappeared.


    The Divine Hell didn''t stop as they continued to send terrifying attacks towards him ¡­


    Two days later, in an inn in a city, Lin Qi was sitting on his bed, pale and weak. Although the wounds on his body had been healed by the Star Shifting Technique, he still felt a sharp pain from the aftermath of the attack on his body two days ago.


    Yes, he survived once again under the Voice of Heaven, but it also left behind a huge aftereffect. The newly recovered soul was torn apart once again, and his cultivation was also completely used up. Only his body''s toughness had greatly increased after being tempered in the Divine Prison.


    There was no sign of Yun Die in the room. Lin Xing had sent someone to invite her.


    The reason he came to the sect was to make a trip home with the aid of the sect''s teleportation array.


    Back to the east corner west!


    It had been half a year since he exited the Heavenly Cauldron. Since he had not returned for half a year, it was highly likely that the upper echelons of the Heavenly Cauldron suspected that he had fallen here.


    The Sky Sect''s attitude towards the general''s manor all depended on Lin Xing''s talent. Half a year ago, he had activated the Sky Cauldron, causing a huge commotion. His future was bright, and so the Sky Sect had expressed their goodwill and tried to win him over.


    However, half a year had passed since the Heavenly Cauldron was released, yet there was no sign of him. It was hard to say if the Heavenly Furnace Lord would be able to suppress his temper and even do something out of line. His heart was filled with worry.


    In addition, after a year and a half, he still had to go to the Rebirth Sect for the two year agreement, so time was very tight for him right now.


    According to his knowledge, the Reincarnation Sect was also very far away, but luckily there was a hidden sect that was personally established by Hierarch Zang Tian in the past. Maybe there was a teleportation formation that connected them to the Reincarnation Sect.


    After he returned to the sect, he had to take care of some matters. He needed to come back and make use of the Hidden Sky Sect''s transfer array to meet up with the Reincarnation Sect.


    As for the other matters, he could only put them aside for now.


    Now, he just needed to settle these two matters.


    He wanted to ask about Cheng Chen and the Heaven Mending Sect, but he didn''t have the energy to do so.


    Moreover, he was heavily injured and would not be able to recover within a short period of time. It would be useless if he went.


    Squeak...


    The door to the room was pushed open and Yun Die walked in. Behind her was a blue-clothed girl who was as beautiful as a flower.


    Lin Qi looked at the girl in blue and his eyes lit up. He realized that this girl''s cultivation level was about the same as Yun Die and asked, "Yun Die, who is this?"


    "Young master, I went to the sect. I didn''t see Shenghao Ying, but I didn''t want to meet Miss Bai Meng. She came to the Qilin Mountain to meet me, and she was also the head disciple of the sect. Yun Die said.


    Lin Qi looked at the blue-clothed woman and nodded, "Alright."


    "Yun Die and I have a deep relationship. Since you''re her son, if there''s anything I can help you with, I''ll do my best."


    Upon hearing Yun Die address him as "Young Master", a flash of surprise appeared in Bai Meng''s eyes before it gradually disappeared.


    "Cough, cough!"


    Lin Xing was about to open his mouth to say something, but he instead violently coughed twice. His face was deathly pale, as if he were sickly, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.


    This time, Bai Meng was even more surprised. She couldn''t understand how the sixth ranked Qilin, Yun Die, could become his servant girl.


    "Miss Bai Meng, to cut a long story short, I would like to borrow the Heavy Sect''s teleportation array." Lin Xing looked at her.


    "Teleportation circle? "Where to?" Bai Meng frowned.


    Yun Die was also at a loss. Lin Xing had told her to call Hao Ying, but she did not say why. She did not know either.


    "To the east and west." Lin Xing said.


    "Sir, are you planning to return to the Gate of Heavenly Mystery?" Yun Die asked.


    "Yes."


    Bai Meng frowned and asked with doubt, "Could it be that you are a disciple of the Profound Sky Sect? You actually came to ask my heavy sect to borrow a transportation formation? Don''t you know what is happening in the Heavenly Jue Great Land recently? "


    Lin Qi frowned. His expression was a little strange. He was confused by the conversation, so he replied, "Yundie and I have been in seclusion deep in the mountains for some time, so I really don''t know what Miss Bai Meng is talking about."


    "Fine." Bai Meng pursed her lips.


    Then, he said, "The Gate of Heavenly Mystery has already dispatched many experts to Heaven''s End. Furthermore, the sword is directed at the Ancient Feather Sect, wanting to take their place and annex them. Today, all the powers in the Land of Jue are watching the movement of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery."


    "This ¡­" Yun Die was shocked. She had not expected the Gate of Heavenly Mystery to be so wild.

 C273

    Lin Xing was also somewhat surprised. Although he was very clear about the Sky Profound Sect''s plan, he had not expected that this day would come so soon.


    Thinking about it, the Gate of Heavenly Mystery could no longer sit still. The plan that they had planned for hundreds of thousands of years had finally begun.


    "Does your Gate of Heavenly Mystery have a fairy called ''Little Liang''?" Bai Meng asked.


    Lin Qi was dazed for a moment before slowly nodding his head.


    "The leader of the vanguard troops sent by the Gate of Heavenly Mystery is this fairy. This little rascal, Fairy Liang, defeated a chief disciple of the Under Heaven Sword Sect in three moves one month ago. Half a month ago, she once again fought with an elder of the Gu Yu sect and directly cut off one of his arms. Her reputation has greatly increased. " Bai Meng exclaimed.


    Yun Die fell to the ground in shock, her face filled with shock. Lin Xing''s expression remained the same, as if he had expected this to happen.


    In the younger generation, he had never seen anyone more formidable than this kid.


    "Not only that, but there''s also that horse by this brat''s side that was wrong. They are all first-class geniuses, and their strength is not to be underestimated." Bai Meng said with a complicated expression on her face.


    A wild sect that came from the east, actually had the ability to train such a heaven warping genius. This was truly beyond anyone''s expectations.


    "Is Giant Remains here too?" Isn''t he from the Giant Spirit Sect? " Lin Qi furrowed his brows, not understanding what was going on.


    Bai Meng bluntly said, "Yes, this time, other than a few experts from the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, the rest of the vanguard troops are all elites of the Giant Spirit Sect.


    "Oh. "So that''s how it is."


    Lin Xing recalled the deal that the Giant Spirit Sect had made with the Gate of Heavenly Mystery in order to welcome him back to the Big Tomb, and it turned out to be this deal. The Giant Spirit Sect sent out their elites to help the Gate of Heavenly Mystery establish a firm foothold in this land.


    "Actually, you don''t need to borrow my Heavy Sect''s Teleportation Array. You can go straight to that brat, Leng. You''re her junior brother, how can she not send you back?" Bai Meng was puzzled.


    Lin Xing laughed bitterly, "Actually, I''m not a disciple of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery."


    "Young master, then why did you say the Gate of Heavenly Mystery ¡­" Yun Die frowned.


    "In the area west of the east corner, only the Gate of Heavenly Mystery is famous. Actually, I''m from the Sky Sect, but I''m afraid that none of you know of it, so I reported the name of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery." Lin Qi said helplessly.


    Yun Die was at a loss when she heard about the Sky Sect, but she had indeed never heard of it.


    Bai Meng lightly nodded her head in response to Qin Wentian''s words.


    "That''s why I say that the matter of the Profound Sky Sect has nothing to do with me. So I wanted to borrow your sect''s teleportation array. If Miss Bai Meng agrees, I will thank you in advance. " Lin Xing pleaded.


    Hearing her young master''s words, Yun Die also turned her gaze towards Bai Meng, her eyes filled with pleading.


    Bai Meng sighed and replied bitterly, "It''s not that I don''t want to help you, but it''s just that the east and west corners are too far away. I have no right to use such a long distance teleportation formation, even if any of the Elders wanted to use it, they would have to obtain the consent of at least five other Elders."


    "Moreover, the location of the teleportation gate is in an abandoned ruin near the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. It has been many years since it has been used. The last time the Giant Spirit Sect asked for help, they sent people to reactivate it."


    "Is there really no other way?" Lin Qi clenched his fists, unwilling to give up.


    "Yes, there is." Bai Meng said again.


    Lin Xing was startled and hastily asked, "Miss Bai Meng, please speak."


    "My Master, the Elder of Jincheng City, is a very influential and influential figure among the group of elders. Right now, his family, which is also the Jin family that holds power for three hundred thousand miles, is miserably being ostracized by an Emperor Warrior. In just a short period of time, a large portion of his territory has already been seized. Therefore, if you can help the Jin Clan take back those territories, you will definitely be admired by my master. At that time, if I were to speak a few more words of praise, he will definitely help you fight for the teleportation circle. " Bai Meng said.


    "I wonder which emperor''s clan it is?" Lin Xing narrowed his eyes and asked.


    "In recent years, this clan has expanded and expanded. The surrounding noble and noble clans were not only the Jin Clan''s, but many more as well. Therefore, even we, the chief disciples, have no way of coming out. If we appear, they will definitely send out their outstanding disciples to assist us, and at that time, they will only cause a huge commotion, and might even cause a conflict between the two sects. There might even be a war. " Bai Meng said.


    She continued, "But you are different. You are an outsider. You can go and help the Jin family, including the Cloud Butterfly."


    After Lin Xing heard this, he pondered for a long time. Finally, he and Yun Die looked at each other and nodded.


    "Alright, I''ll help with that. However, I''ll have to ask Miss Bai Meng to promise me that if I can recover the lost land, I will definitely be able to borrow your Heavy Sect''s Teleportation Formation." Lin Xing said.


    "Of course, but I can guarantee that as long as you take back the lost land, my Master will have an 80% chance of winning." Bai Meng said.


    "Eighty percent? That''s enough. " Lin Xing said.


    "This is my master''s badge. After taking this badge, you will be reused when you arrive at the Jin family. The rest is up to you guys."


    Bai Meng took out a golden token from her soul cave. There was a golden word engraved on it, but the token was as heavy as a mountain.

 C274

    Chaotic, imperial soldiers, millions of miles in the territory, strong and powerful soldiers, all kinds of talented people, the number of soldiers in the clan alone was two million.


    In recent years, under the leadership of the current clan leader, the Chaotic Family''s strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. Their ambition had also expanded, constantly expanding, and they were plundering resources and land.


    The Jin Family was one of the unluckiest little clans among them. Their territory was the border with the Chaotic Family, and the three hundred thousand mile territory was also rich in resources. There was not a single barren land, so naturally, one of them became the little fat sheep in the eyes of the Chaotic Family.


    The most outstanding person in the Jin family was the elder of the Jin city who had lived for eight hundred years. Although he would not brazenly help the Jin family to expand their military force, but all these years, he had been secretly supporting them.


    Now, the chaotic clan had finally begun to expand outward with great fanfare, thus the land of the Jin Clan''s feng shui had naturally become their first choice.


    As for the Jin Family, how could they be a match for the imperial soldiers? They suffered a crushing defeat along the way, and nearly half of the 300,000 mile territory was lost.


    At this moment, all the higher-ups of the Jin family were gathered in a grand hall. The atmosphere was extremely depressing as they tried to come up with some countermeasures.


    However, he couldn''t come up with a good plan even with a bunch of sad faces and low roars.


    Just when they were at the end of their rope and were about to move their ancestral land, the two of them stepped into the palace hall.


    The two of them held the Golden City Hand Token and began to speak crazily. Within a month, they were able to recover the lost territory. When the Jin Clan higher ups heard this, their eyes immediately lit up as if they had grabbed onto a lifesaving straw.


    "Little brother, I wonder what kind of plan you have. You dare to say that you can take back our Jin family''s land within a month?"


    The current clan head of the Jin Clan, Jin Shi, cupped his fist towards the youth sitting at the side. His face was filled with anticipation, but his tone was filled with suspicion.


    The other Jin family members also looked at the young man, their eyes full of inquiry.


    "Cough, cough!"


    The youngster''s clothes were thin, and his face was as white as paper. He seemed to be suffering from a severe illness, and his appearance was extremely ill. It seemed as though a gust of wind could blow him over.


    Was this really a reinforcement sent by the Old Ancestor?


    Regarding this, everyone in the Jin family was still suspicious.


    On the other hand, the girl with the dark blue butterfly tattoo on her forehead, who was standing beside him, caught his attention. On the other hand, the girl with the dark blue butterfly tattoo on her forehead, who was standing next to him, caught his attention.


    This was especially true for the young men of the Jin Clan. They stared at the young girl with infatuated eyes that shone with a colorful light.


    "Cough, cough ¡­"


    Lin Xing coughed twice and looked up at Jin Shi. He was able to detect his cultivation. In this world, it was as if he was one with the world, and his soul force was even more difficult to capture.


    According to his inquiries, Jin Shi was currently the strongest expert in the Jin family. He had lived for over two hundred years, but his appearance still retained the appearance of a middle-aged man.


    "Master Jin, other than me, do you think that your Jin family has any other choices?" Lin Qi said in a lukewarm tone.


    Jin Shi was startled. He couldn''t help but let out a sigh and then asked, "But is the ancestor asking for reinforcements just the two of you? The soldiers of the Chaotic Family numbered two million. If the two of you come here to help us, we, the Jin family, will not even be able to protect the remaining one hundred thousand miles of territory, much less take back our lost territory. "


    "Yeah. It''s not that we don''t trust you. "


    "May I ask if little brother is also a little lord of some imperial soldier clan?" Leading a million troops to help our Jin family take back our lost land? "


    The heads of the Jin family''s upper echelons were all opened. Some of them were disappointed, while others were overjoyed.


    "You don''t need to make wild guesses. I can tell you clearly that only the two of us did not bring a single soldier this time. Therefore, it would be best if you take back your beautiful dreams. At this juncture, you can only rely on yourselves and me." Lin Qi wiped away his sweat.


    "This ¡­"


    The high-level officials of the Jin family were stunned. All the good things they had been thinking about earlier were instantly wiped away by these words.


    "If you, Master Jin, want to take back the lost ground, please give me all of your armors and armor. If you do not want to ¡­" Please go back to sleep. There''s everything in the dream. "


    As Lin Qi said this, all the faces of the Jin Clan members in the hall turned red and pale.


    Jin Shi turned around and walked to the side. He discussed the matter with the two elders for a long time and then came back. He gritted his teeth and asked Lin Xing, "Is little brother really sure that you can take back the Jin Clan''s lost land within a month?"


    "Like I said, you have no choice." Lin Xing was getting impatient.


    "That''s good. Our Jin family still has four legions, with 100,000 people each. Adding them together, we have a total of 400,000 people. We will hand them all over to little brother." Gold City Road.


    Lin Qi shook his head.


    Seeing this, Jin Cheng''s face darkened, "Little brother, are you not satisfied?"


    "It''s not that I''m not satisfied, it''s just that I''m not satisfied. Not only the four great legions have to listen to my orders, even all the high-level members of the Jin family, including you, must listen to my commands. Otherwise, I will leave immediately." Lin Xing said.

 C275

    "How dare you!"


    "So what if you''re an external helper that the Old Ancestor hired? "You are just a member of the younger generation at the Astral Mountain Realm. How could the upper echelons of my Jin family not be stronger than you?"


    "That''s right, it''s not that we don''t follow the orders of the Old Ancestor, it''s just that your cultivation is too low and you don''t have any soldiers. How could my Jin family trust you?"


    The elders of the Jin family were enraged. To hand over the four great legions to Lin Qi was already the limit. However, they did not expect that Lin Xing was not satisfied and still wanted them, the elders, to follow his lead.


    This was a fantasy, a dream come true!


    This was something that could not be agreed upon no matter what. Firstly, Lin Ming had no battle armor, and secondly, he had no honorable status. If they obeyed his orders with just a single token, then this matter would be the laughingstock of anyone who heard it.


    Lin Xing remained expressionless and emotionless as if he did not hear anything. He stared straight at Jin Shi who had a very difficult expression on his face.


    "Little Brother Lin, you saw it too. It is not that I do not agree, but all the higher-ups of our Jin family do not agree. How about this, we will hand over the four legions to you to command. We will not interfere."


    As he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Qi with a serious expression as he quietly waited for his answer.


    In truth, Jin Shi had long since given up on trying to take back his territory. Unless the old ancestor Jing Cheng intervened, it was impossible to take it back. And now, Lin Xing had given him hope. He had said that he would be able to take back all the lost land within a month, and he was also eager to take back his territory.


    Otherwise, he wouldn''t be so low down to a mere Astral Mountain Realm junior.


    "Fine, I know it''s almost impossible to get you old guys to listen to my orders. However, you said it earlier, give me the power of the four great legions, you are not allowed to interfere. Is that right? " Lin Xing narrowed his eyes.


    "That''s right, of course. If Sir Lin has anything to tell us, then please do not hesitate to tell me. I will discuss it with the elders before I give you an answer." Jin Shi pondered for a moment before speaking.


    "No need, you guys can stay in the Jin family''s ancestral land. After you guys have finished discussing, the army of the Chaotic Family will arrive at this place." Lin Xing sneered.


    Jin Shi pouted with an embarrassed expression. After a while, he didn''t utter a word. Instead, he took out a golden token from his spiritual cave. There was a word "Troop" engraved on it.


    Lin Qi took the token and his expression calmed down. He then handed it over to Yun Die.


    Afterwards, he retrieved a painting scroll from his soul cave, and with a wave of his sleeve, he hung it in the air before him.


    This was actually a map. The map depicted the Jin Clan and the Chaotic Clan ¡­ The geographical position of the soldiers was very clear, and the distance between them was very clear.


    The elders of the Jin family could not help but suck in a breath of cold air when they saw this map.


    They discovered that the terrain markings on the map were even more accurate than the maps that the Jin Clan had.


    In fact, Lin Xing had paid a huge price to buy it from a shop. Before coming here, he and Yun Die had personally investigated the location of the shop. He waited until he had accumulated eighty percent of the confidence to return home. Only then did he come to the Jin family with the token in his hand.


    "Yun Die, take the military power and order the commanders of the four great legions to retreat to this place ¡­"


    Lin Qi''s finger transformed into a long shadow as he drew a diagonal line on the map. However, just as he was about to make a move, the Jin family members jumped up from their benches in shock before he could finish his sentence.


    "Are you crazy? If the four legions retracted, who would be sent to guard that fifty thousand kilometers? "


    "Ignorant brat, you are just blindly guiding me. My Jin family has already lost 200,000 miles of territory. Do you really think you can give me another 50,000 miles?"


    The older generation members of the Jin Clan were greatly shocked. They became flustered and exasperated as they pointed at Lin Qi and cursed incessantly.


    Even Jin Shi''s face darkened as a red light flashed in the depths of his eyes.


    "Shut up."


    Lin Qi roared as he slammed the table and stood up. A vicious expression surfaced on his pale face.


    "Ugh ¡­"


    The air suddenly froze, and the entire arena was dead silent.


    The Jin family higher ups could not help but stare blankly at Lin Qi. Just as they regained their senses, flames were spewing out of their eyes as they wanted to point at Lin Qi and curse him.


    Lin Qi gave a cold humph and took the initiative to say, "Listen to me first. It''s not too late for you to lose your temper."


    "After hearing his words, no one is allowed to interrupt, otherwise, don''t blame me for being heartless." At this time, Jin Shi suddenly spoke sternly.


    The Jin family seniors were silent.


    Lin Qi glanced at them and then sat down. He looked at the map in front of him and continued waving his fingers.


    He turned to Yun Die and said, "Set up the 1st and 2nd Legion in these two locations and set up a double defensive line to stop the soldiers. We order them to defend this place at all costs, as long as they can hold on for half a month ¡­"


    As he finished speaking, Lin Qi took a deep breath, his expression full of anticipation.


    Seeing this, the elders of the Jin family were somewhat confused.


    Half a month?


    Could it be that reinforcements will arrive in half a month? They guessed in their hearts.


    "As for the third and fourth legion ¡­" Suddenly, a golden light flashed in Lin Qi''s eyes. He waved his hand and Yun Die understood immediately. She bent down and put her ear close to his lips.


    Then, the elders of the Jin family saw Lin Xing whisper a few words into Yun Die''s ear. Then, Yun Die excitedly turned around and left.

 C276

    "Sir Lin, could it be that reinforcements will arrive in half a month?"


    "That''s right. Sir Lin, quickly tell us, we bunch of old fellows are really curious."


    Before Yun Die left, her face was full of excitement. They had seen it clearly and thought back to what Lin Xing said about half a month ago. They could not help but feel shocked and overjoyed.


    Lin Xing raised his head and swept his eyes over everyone in the hall. With a smile, he said, "You''ve guessed right. There will be reinforcements arriving in half a month."


    "Oh? May I ask which imperial soldier sent this soldier? Do you have a million? "


    After receiving a precise answer, everyone''s body trembled, and their expressions became incomparably excited. Amidst Jin Shi''s excitement, he immediately asked.


    Hearing this, Lin Qi let out a mocking laugh, shook his head and said in a deep voice, "You don''t need to make wild guesses, reinforcements do exist, but they are not royalty." Before I came to your Jin family, I had already visited the nearby young soldiers. They were all at the border of Chaotic Family territory, and after all these years of being oppressed, my heart was already filled with rage and I was worrying that I wouldn''t have a place to vent it. After my painstaking efforts to persuade them, they all agreed to raise their troops and launch a counterattack against the Chaotic Family. The agreed time is set to be in half a month. "


    "Why not now? but half a month later? " Someone asked in confusion.


    Lin Qi once again shook his head and ridiculed, "To reorganize the army and make a plan of battle? Which one doesn''t need time? Moreover, those young soldiers do not only want to regain some of their lost territory. After joining forces and defeating the soldiers of the Chaotic Family, they will also have to think about how to split the profits. As for that, I believe that they are already thinking about it. "


    "Heh, I was indeed thinking quite far."


    Jin Shi sneered. He agreed. Then, he asked, "But, with just the strength of us little soldiers, can we really defeat them?"


    "You don''t have to worry about this, I''ve already made arrangements." Lin Xing said, "As long as the First and Second Legion can hold onto the remaining 50,000 land for half a month, we will win this battle. One strike back, and I will regain my lost ground. "


    After hearing this, the elders of the Jin family nodded as if they understood something.


    At this time, Lin Xing said weakly, "I will trouble Patriarch Jin to arrange for me to rest first. You guys should also put your hearts into your stomachs. In half a month, I guarantee that your Jin Clan can take back all the lost land."


    Jin Shi was visibly moved. He immediately waved his hand to summon a beautiful young girl, and said to Lin Xing, "Sir Lin, this is the most outstanding disciple of my Jin family, Jin Qi. He is also an inner disciple of the important sect.


    Lin Qi''s eyes darted around as he sized up the girl in front of him. When he sensed that she was in the Heaven Smiting Stage, he nodded slightly and said, "Alright."


    Then, he raised his arm. Seeing this, Jin Xuan immediately walked over to support him, and then led him out of the main hall.


    Finally, Jin Wu brought him to a room and helped him sit on the edge of the bed.


    "Miss Jin, please leave first. If Yun Die comes back, you must bring her to see me." Lin Xing said.


    Jin Yin nodded in agreement and gave him a deep look. Then, he turned around and was about to leave.


    Lin Qi suddenly shouted, "Wait!"


    "Hmm? Is there something wrong with Sir Lin? " Jin Ying asked in a low voice.


    "You know me?" Lin Qi had a strange expression on his face. He had just realized that Jin Yin had been looking at him with a strange expression.


    "I just returned from the Heavenly Cauldron three days ago." Jin Yin''s voice suddenly became very forceful.


    "Oh, so Lady Jin is actually a Heavenly Cauldron freak. I am truly disrespectful." Lin Xing''s heart trembled, but his facial expressions did not fluctuate much.


    "Sir Lin, have you ever entered the Heavenly Cauldron?" Golden Cluster stared at him, his eyes filled with a myriad of emotions.


    Lin Xing knew that Jin Yin was testing him. Lin Xing was simply too loud in the Heavenly Cauldron, even though he had already left the Heavenly Cauldron for half a year.


    "That''s right." he replied.


    "Hmm?" Jin Xuan''s delicate body trembled at the sound, but Lin Xing''s next sentence caused her expression to return to normal.


    "But that was a year ago." Lin Xing lied.


    "Oh, so it''s like that." Jin Xuan pursed his lips. After calculating the time, he realized that he was not on the same level as that person. He would be able to deny the existence of this'' Lin Xing ''in front of him.


    The world was vast, and there were too many people of the same surname. It was impossible for her to meet such a coincidence.


    "I wonder which World Alliance Miss Jin will serve in the Heavenly Cauldron?" Lin Qi asked curiously.


    "Reporting to Sir Lin, I will serve the White Tiger World Alliance." Jin replied.


    Hearing the words'' White Tiger World Alliance '', Lin Xing''s heart began to race. His expression became very complex as Su Nian''s face appeared in his mind. This was a woman that he would never forget in his life.


    Seeing Lin Ming''s strange mood, Jin Yin slightly frowned and asked, "Sir Lin, what''s wrong?"


    As his thoughts were interrupted, Lin Qi did his best to erase Su Nian''s shadow in his heart. He replied, "It''s nothing, I just remembered something from the past."


    "Oh, this part of the Heavenly Cauldron''s memory is something that any Heavenly Cauldron freak would never be able to forget." Jin Xiao had experienced it himself, and his face was full of complex emotions.

    Afterwards, Lin Xing also knocked on the side, inquiring about many things related to the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Of course, the most common word that came out of Jin Xuan''s mouth was still the name ''Lin Xing'', which was also the grand noble who wielded great power over the Heaven Cauldron.


    After ''Lin Xing'' left, the World Alliance''s strength had increased to the level of the First World Alliance. The number of Tianshu soldiers in three months was no less than eight.


    As for ''Lin Xing'', he became the champion of the World Alliance. Everyone had their beliefs and many of them even scouted around the Heavenly Cauldron to find him. They all wanted to find him after they found the Heavenly Cauldron and follow him in his quest.


    And there was also the Sword Immortal Leng Canxin. This woman was also extraordinary. She was the number one heavyweight of the World Alliance, and under her leadership, the World Alliance became second only to the World Alliance.


    Later on, Jin Ying mentioned half white, shade of purple... Lin Xing was an old friend of the Heavenly Cauldron.


    Zi Yin, in particular, was not only beautiful like a flower, but also docile and well-behaved. With this kind of character, she was also very popular within the Heavenly Cauldron, and when it came to connections, she was not any less than Meng Luo Yu. In her hands, the Yang Moon Hall had also gradually developed once more.


    By the time Lin Xin heard Leng Ruoxi''s name, he estimated that she should have left the Heavenly Cauldron a long time ago. But up until now, there was not a single piece of news related to her.


    "Miss Jin Qi, did you see an old man called Old Shang Qi in the third month of the Heavenly Cauldron?" Lin Qi suddenly thought of Old Shangqi''s figure and asked.


    When Jin Xiao heard this, he seemed to ponder for a moment. After recalling for a while, he shook his head.


    Lin Xing pursed his lips, sending Jin Xu off with a tactful tone before closing the door.


    Inside the room, Lin Xing was in a daze as he reminisced about the past of the Heaven Cauldron. Many figures appeared in his mind, including Su Nian, then the old man Qing Qi.


    There was no need to talk about Su Nian. This was a woman that he would never be able to erase.


    As for the old man, he was not simple at all. He was always in a mysterious state. He stayed in the Heavenly Cauldron for five months without being sent out.


    Lin Xing suspected that this old man had a secret on him, a secret that allowed him to enter and exit the Heavenly Cauldron at will.


    If he was lucky enough to meet him in the future, Lin Xing would definitely seize this secret.


    There were many mysteries that remained unsolved within the Sky Cauldron. For example, the Land of the Green God. For instance, Qiong Qi Mountain was the birthplace of the beast tide. Why couldn''t there be a single vicious beast? All kinds of secrets were attracting Lin Xing.


    Putting aside these memories, Lin Xing closed his eyes and focused on his mace.


    Observing the lackluster and fluctuating golden mace, Lin Xing''s heart felt as if it was being cut by knives. He was so angry that his balls ached.


    After being nourished by the Gold Pearl for half a year, the Gold Mace finally had enough time to release its divinity. When it was about to wake up, it didn''t expect that it would hit the Gold Mace that had just awakened back to the Abyss.


    Moreover, looking at its appearance, its injuries were even worse than the last time. This time, even if it was nourished with the Golden Bead, the day of its awakening would still be far away.


    The most painful thing was that the Golden Bead also suffered heavy losses from the head-on attack of the dragon''s head weapon. Although it was not as complete as the golden mace, the mystical energy it produced was halved and its expression was dull, no longer as bright as before.


    He was so angry that his balls were lightened.


    At the moment, the golden mace was his greatest reliance. Even under the attacks of the dragon head weapon, it could still protect him. It would be his trump card to walk the world in the future.


    However, now that he had fallen into an endless slumber, he inexplicably lost some of his self-confidence.


    "Hmm? It is one of the seven great sects of the Heaven''s End Region, and is ranked amongst the Seven Great Sects of the Heaven Hidden Realm. Perhaps within that sect, there would also be something similar to the Golden Bead hidden, which can nourish the golden mace and help it wake up as soon as possible. "


    Lin Qi suddenly thought of this, and his lost mood once again brightened up. Perhaps there really was a possibility.


    Even if he didn''t have the plan to teleport to the Reincarnation Sect, Lin Xing still needed to go to the hidden sect in the future.


    With this thought, he felt less loss and worry, and instead took out a large amount of soul medicine from his soul cave, and began to heal his soul.


    The destructive power of the dragon head weapon was tremendous, the supplementary destructive force was too strong, it could directly destroy a person''s soul. After the Qilin Mountain incident, Lin Xing''s recently reunited soul was once again torn apart, on the verge of collapse.


    During his battle with Yu Lin, he had taken out ten soul medicines and swallowed them before temporarily stabilizing his soul.


    Afterwards, his soul was continuously injured within the tombstone, and he began to show signs of being reborn.


    If he didn''t start the healing soon, Lin Xing''s soul would be destroyed within a few months, leaving behind only an empty shell.


    Next, he hung the Ice Seal on the back of the door and sealed the entire room in ice. After everything was properly arranged, he then took out the soul medicine from his soul cave, preparing to heal the soul.

    Three days later, Yun Die knocked on the door. Lin Xing Yi immediately opened his eyes and removed the Freezing Sky Seal.


    Squeak...


    The door opened and a glowing Cloud Butterfly entered the room. She walked up to Lin Xing and greeted him with a respectful tone, "Young Master."


    Lin Qi nodded slightly. He sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed and asked, "Have you made the arrangements?"


    "Everything is in place. The first and second legions, retreat, and protect this final fifty thousand li of the ''Ancestral Land''. "Indeed, just as the Young Master had expected, the Ji Clan was the one that showed weakness, and thus mobilized all their forces to attack the Ji Clan. There are a total of five hundred thousand Dao Realm soldiers in the army." Yun Die smiled.


    Lin Xing''s expression eased up, and he chuckled, "Not bad, this is indeed the Chaotic Family. They wanted to annex all of the Jin Family''s territories, and now that the Jin Family has shown weakness, their arrogance has increased. That''s why we''re mobilizing all our heavy soldiers, hoping to take them down in one go. "


    "However, young master, are our methods of using troops too extreme? If we let Jin Shi and the others know, they would probably want to kill us." Yun Die was a bit worried, but she was not afraid. Her tone was full of mockery.


    "Then don''t let them know." Lin Qi laughed, and then said seriously, "If this gets out, we will lose control of the four great Legions. I''m afraid that we will lose everything. After all, Jin Shi and the rest would never agree to my actions."


    "Yes, young master. No one would find out about this, and even if they did, it would be too late. The fate of the Jin Clan lies in the hands of Young Master. " Yun Die said confidently.


    After staying by Lin Xing''s side for so long, Yun Die felt that she could not see through this young master. He was always mysterious and unpredictable, and it was hard to see through him.


    Lin Qi took a deep breath, his expression grave. He had to win this battle. Only by doing this would he be able to make use of the Heavy Sect''s transmission array to return home.


    Thinking of this, worry arose in his heart. He had left for more than half a year, how the Lin Family was doing now, he did not know.


    "Oh right, I asked you to scout the situation of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. I wonder if you''ve heard any news?" Lin Qi was silent for a while before changing the subject.


    Yun Die nodded her head and replied, "Reporting to Sir, I have indeed heard a lot about the Gate of Heavenly Mystery. However, the recent development of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery is not very satisfactory."


    "Why not?" Lin Qi was surprised.


    "As an outsider, the Celestial Sect of Wonders definitely came prepared to annex the Ancient Feather Sect as soon as they appeared. But now, their momentum has been halted."


    Yun Die explained in detail, "This time, the Gate of Heavenly Mystery split into three groups and entered the Heaven''s End, the first group was led by the vanguard army led by the little brat, the second group is a group of Sect Master level experts, the last group are the rare immortals, but now all of them coincidentally met with the same situation, and their paths are all blocked. Young master, you might not be clear about one thing, but the immortal sects and sects in the Heavenly Jue Great Land have always been one and the same. Now that someone has declared war to the Ancient Feather Sect, the other immortal sects naturally wouldn''t sit idly by, such as the Under Heaven Sword Sect, the Nine Sun Palace, and even the Godly Returning Spirit Sect, all of which have eight sects, have sent experts to support the Ancient Feather Sect. "


    "What about the Gate of Heavenly Mystery?" No one helped? " Lin Xing frowned.


    "Yes, but there are only two sects. One is the Heaven Mending Sect, and the other is the Heavy Sect, but the Heavy Sect acted to restrain one or two sects because of the Giant Spirit Sect. Their attitude is not very clear, but the Heaven Mending Sect''s attitude is very decisive. Compared to the support of the eight sects, the Profound Sky Sect is in a precarious situation. " Yun Die said.


    Lin Qi did not mind. The Gate of Heavenly Mystery had been planning for dozens of years. Without absolute confidence, they would not act rashly. He had expected that they would have other tricks up their sleeves.


    On the other hand, the Heaven Mending Sect''s decisive interference had exceeded Lin Qi''s expectations. There might be something hidden inside.


    Just the peerless beauty that he saw in front of the statue of the Goddess of Replenishment was not an ordinary person. Jumping through space and spanning the void, it was said by her to be nothing out of the ordinary. Perhaps she knew some of the cards in the Gate of Heavenly Mystery, which was why she did not hesitate to support the Gate of Heavenly Mystery.


    "You just said that the Heaven Mending Sect will send five chief disciples to follow the orders of this kid, Liu Liang. That kid is truly imposing now." Lin Qi thought of the little brat and felt a sudden urge to laugh.


    This woman had once come into contact with him. Even though she wasn''t a close relative of him, if word were to spread out, it would make anyone blush. After all, she was a fairy.


    Ever since the last time this brat Liang defeated a chief disciple of the Sword Immortal Sect, his name had spread far and wide in the Heaven''s End Land. Many geniuses came to challenge her, but no one was able to withstand three of her attacks. Yun Die exclaimed in admiration, she was deeply impressed by this brat''s strength.
