Bang!
Following an ear-splitting noise, Yu Xiaosheng was sent flying across the air by a terrifying force along with the dragon bone halberd in his hand,
He staggered back more than ten feet before he could steady himself. Although he was uninjured, his face was contorted with shocked disbelief.
The others were even more astonished. They never thought that at the critical juncture, Lin Xun could dispel Yu Xiaoshengâs strongest attack with a single palm strike!
Zhao Jingxuan tensed up with worry and nervousness when she saw the halberd about to fall on Lin Xun. But now, a relieved smile was spreading across her beautiful face.
âKid, get up quickly and kill those despicable bastards!â Jin Duyi bellowed. He was breathing feebly and looked badly wounded, but at that moment, he seemed unusually energetic and excited.
However, Lin Xun was still sitting there cross-legged, though his body was glowing brightly and in perfect condition.
Within his Heaven Ascension Cave, divine light surged like the sea and constantly spewed out of the cave. An ancient and simple-looking Dao Platform stood proudly adorned with three sacred beams of light like swathes of white jade. Everything looked majestic, grand and indestructible.
Lin Xun was now fully restored. His injuries had been completely healed, and the power of the heavenly tribulation chain had been crushed and integrated into his Dao Platform, strengthening and tempering it.
He had reached the pinnacle of the initial Heaven Ascension Stage and was invincible against same-level cultivators!
No one dared to step forward anymore because the aura exuding from Lin Xunâs body was too powerful and oppressive. Even the birds and beasts afar were curled on the ground while trembling incessantly.
Shua!
Lin Xunâs eyes snapped open. It was as though two towering mountain peaks were tearing through space.
Everything seemed brilliantly illuminated.
It wasnât until that moment that Lin Xun felt he was completely different from the past. He truly had risen above the crowd and now felt a sense of superiority.
The terrifying aura soon subsided into Lin Xun like a tide. The various birds and beasts stopped trembling and quickly fled as if they had been released.
Lin Xun exuded a transcendence air as he scanned the group of cultivators. His eyes were clear and tranquil, and his body was filled with divine brilliance.
âYouâre finally awake,â Zhao Jingxuan said softly, a warm and gentle smile blooming across her pale face.
Lin Xun suddenly trembled inwardly.
Before her voice faded, blood overflowed the corners of her lips and she collapsed in the air.
She had fended off several Saint-level figures by herself with her life on the line. She was extremely lucky to still be alive.
But her injuries were too severe, and she couldnât withstand them any longer.
With lightning speed, Lin Xun rushed forward to catch Zhao Jingxuan in his arms. She clutched her tightly as if he was afraid that he would lose her if he let go.
Zhao Jingxuan wrinkled her brows. âThat hurts.â
She always looked graceful and confident, but now, as she lay in Lin Xunâs arms, she showed a rare side of delicateness.
Lin Xun had a lot that he wanted to say to her, but as he gazed at her colorless face, he could only utter one sentence, âRest well and leave the rest to me.â
His sentence was simple and ordinary as if they were having a normal conversation, but it took Zhao Jingxuan aback. Inexplicable emotions welled up in her eyes, and she just nodded in response.
Afar, Jin Duyi muttered irately to himself as he lay in the swamp. What an ungrateful guy! Did he not see that I almost died because of him? Why didnât he come to rescue me? I am more wounded than that girl!
As though Lin Xun heard Jin Duyi, he suddenly turned his head. âToady, thank you very much.â
Jin Duyi yelled, âIf you want to apologize, go and kill those bastards for me!â
âAll right!â Lin Xun nodded, happily agreeing.
But before that, he first brought Zhao Jingxuan to the first floor of the Nameless Pagoda to let her recover, and then he asked Jin Duyi if he wanted to recuperate there as well. The toad flat-out declined with the reason that he wanted to watch the bastards die with his own eyes.
During that, Yu Xiaosheng, Lin Lang and the others were all coldly watching Lin Xun, studying his aura and did not recklessly take any action.
In truth, from the moment that Yu Xiaosheng had been blasted across the air, they realized that they couldn't kill Lin Xun.
Not only that, but the aura emitting from Lin Xunâs body also made them feel oppressed and deterred them from attacking.
However, they couldnât control themselves when they heard Jin Duyi insult them and call them bastards.
âHey, do you think heâs the savior? What a joke! So what if he has recovered? He canât escape death!â thundered the Saint of the Jade Qilin Clan, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.
âEveryone, the kid is undeniably difficult to deal with. Most importantly, if we want to take the treasures on him, we have to kill him before others come!â
Yu Xiaosheng coldly said aloud, âSo, why donât we work together to eliminate him with all our strength and then split the treasures on him? What do you say?â
The others immediately agreed to the proposal. In truth, Lin Xunâs powerful aura had instilled fear in them, so joining forces was a better idea.
âBut I have to remind everyone that you canât hold back your strength when dealing with him,â Lin Lang reminded everyone.
They had fought on their own when they dealt with Zhao Jingxuan, hoping to be the first to kill Lin Xun and take all his treasures. But that only gave Zhao Jingxuan many opportunities and made them lose on many excellent openings.
Lin Lang didnât want a similar situation to happen. They were going to deal with Lin Xun, who had fully recovered!
The saints and saintesses of other clans agreed to the suggestion.
âAre you finished yet? Then I will send you to your deaths!â Lin Xun finally said aloud after watching indifferently.
His entire body was roaring with Dao Ripple flowing around. His aura instantly soared to a terrifying pinnacle state. It was as though a divine god was awakening in his body.
The sky and the earth whimpered and wailed, the wind and clouds were agitated, and the terrifying aura raged. Yu Xiaosheng and the others shuddered inwardly.
âWhat a terrifying aura!â A saintâs expression turned grave.
âIf we donât eliminate that boy now, no one can suppress him in the future! He will be a catastrophe to the world one day!â Killing intent burst out from Yu Xiaoshengâs eyes.
âKill!â One of the cultivators took the lead to attack. His physique looked as mighty and huge as a mountain, and baleful demonic qi was vaporizing from all over his body.
He wielded a bone rod in his hand. With a deafening rumble, he forged his way towards Lin Xun in the distance.
His power was so violent and fierce that it could crush mountains and valleys and disrupt the universe.
Lin Xun was shrouded in a cloak-like sacred glow fluctuating with Dao Ripple. He resembled a god descending upon the world.
He lightly punched at the opponent.
Bang!
The seemingly ordinary punch vibrated the giant bone rod until it whimpered. The Demon Elephant Clan Saint was enveloped in the force of the punch. It looked like he was being crushed by a sacred mountain before being blasted into the air.
The tremendous power stupefied everyone. The Saint of the Demon Elephant Clan had been defeated in one punch, and he was unable to compete with Lin Xun anymore!
âWhat heaven-defying strengthâ¦â Jin Duyi muttered excitedly to himself, eyes bulging wide open.
âWhy are you all standing there? Letâs attack together!â Yu Xiaosheng roared as he swung up his dragon bone halberd and charged forward.
Naturally, the other cultivators immediately launched into action. They realized the terror and abnormal strength of the human boy.
Although it made them more fearful, they knew they couldnât stand still and do nothing!
They all acted!
Buzz!
Ancient and majestic sound waves resounded across the area before a blood-colored copper bell emerged, and Saintess Lin Lang charged over to kill Lin Xun.
The Saint of the Jade Qilin Clan roared as he brought out a jade ruler glistening with mysterious Dao patterns. It seemed to contain the power to enlighten all living beings.
Undoubtedly, the jade ruler was an ancient secret treasure!
Emerald green brilliance spread across the air as it took the shape of an ancient battle armor and cloaked the Saintess of the Dark Wood Clan. The battle armor was engraved with mysterious totems, radiating a prehistoric aura.
The battle armor had an extraordinary background!
The Saints and Saintesses of the various races had all mobilized their full strength, producing all sorts of earthshaking visions and fluctuations. It was as though doomsday was near.
Amid the turmoil, Lin Xunâs eyes were shining brilliantly, and his silky black hair was billowing around his face. He exuded an indescribable bearing. As he activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step, he was as illusory as a godly being. Every step of his radiated immeasurable powers.
He operated the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art. The movements were simple and unadorned, but they contained incredibly destructive power. It could smash through the air, pulverize all sorts of rare treasures, and destroy everything in its way!
It couldnât be suppressed!
Even though a group of top genius figures had encircled Lin Xun, and they each brought out all sorts of rare secret weapons, they couldnât suppress his brilliance and divine powers!
Rumble!
The sky and the earth rumbled like it was about to split. How would the joint attacks of so many powerful and extraordinary Saint-level cultivators not be terrifying?
Such a rare, earth-shaking conflict would no doubt set off a storm in the outside world!
âDie!â
The Saint of the Jade Qilin Clan thundered as he took the opportunity to lunge the dazzling jade ruler at Lin Xunâs back.
Following a roar, the shadow of a Bixi beast emerged from Lin Xunâs back, raised its head and knocked the Jade Qilin Clan Saint into the air, leaving him shuddering all over and coughing up blood.
âDie!â
Yu Xiaosheng used the opportunity to bring the giant halberd down at Lin Xun from the other side.
Without even glancing at him, Lin Xun punched and a blast of divine force hurled Yu Xiaosheng across the air.
At the same time, the shadow of a hornless ice dragon drifted up from Lin Xunâs feet. It flicked its tail and repeatedly whipped the Saint of the Demon Elephant Clan until he was grunting in agony. His shoulder blade had collapsed inwards.
Instantaneously, two Saints retreated in embarrassment, and one was badly wounded!
This kind of peerless power was simply invincible, so Lin Xun looked more and more extraordinary, like a king crushing all enemies of the same cultivation level.
Jin Duyi was frozen in astonishment in the distance, but emotions were stirred up in his heart. He had been amazed again and again.
He never thought that Lin Xun would grow that strong after his recovery!
