Chapter 1130 - The Moon Is Round Tonight!
The Sovereign's Ascension
There was still one day left until the full moon, and Lin Yun had been playing the flute for the past six days. He was trying to become proficient with the five sounds and 12 notes. The noble tune of music dao was a lot harder than he had imagined, and it wasnât as easy as wielding the flute as a sword.
Thinking of the higher grades, Lin Yun felt like he couldnât see the end of the road. Fortunately, he was blessed with good talent, so his comprehension of music dao wasnât any weaker than the sword dao.
Although Lilâ Purple no longer had her cultivation, her attainment in music dao was still at the level of the divine dragon tune. So it was more than enough for her to guide Lin Yun. So Lin Yun made swift progress over the past six days. It was a speed that didnât disappoint Lilâ Purple.
When Lin Yun played the flute, various phenomena began to appear in the surrounding ocean. He wasnât playing a song and the flute wasnât empowered by his sword intent. He merely relied on his own attainments in music dao and his origin energy to play the flute.
The music played over the ocean as sunlight and moonlight intertwined. Then, a sword ray soared into the sky past plum blossom trees. As the sword ray soared, a waterfall fell down. Finally, the sword ray exploded in the sky, manifesting a sea of flames that looked like blazing meteorites descending onto the ground.
The sky trembled with the blazing meteors like a crumbling mountain. With the music, Lin Yun displayed the five sounds of music. The sword rays represented gold, the plum blossom represented wood, the waterfall represented water, the meteorites represented fire, and the mountains represented the earth.
When the music gradually came to an end, a noble aura suddenly exploded out of Lin Yun that instantly erased all the phenomena. Geysers of water exploded on the ocean as water soared into the sky. Then, they transformed into water dragons that coiled around Lin Yun. This was the noble tune!
âAlthough youâre lacking a bit, your talent is terrifying. I canât believe you grasped the noble tune within six days.â Lilâ Purple muttered with her brows locked. But she soon smiled because this meant that she had taught him well.
When Lin Yun lowered the flute, the water dragons turned into rain. He couldnât conceal the joy in his eyes because the noble tune was roughly equivalent to sky sword intent. If he combined the noble tune with his sky sword intent at complete mastery, he would be extremely powerful.
But when Lin Yun tried to walk forward, he began to stagger. He had exhausted a great deal of mental energy over the past six days to grasp the noble tune.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yun sat down and closed his eyes before he fell asleep. He had fallen into a deep sleep that lasted for an entire day and night. When he opened his eyes, his pupils were shining brightly with his spirit reaching an unprecedented height.
When Lin Yun got up, he stretched his waist before letting out a long yawn from the comfortable rest.
âHmph, you yawned like that last night.â Lilâ Purple chuckled while she came over with Lilâ Red.
When Lin Yun heard that, he smiled awkwardly before he looked at the setting sun and squinted his eyes together, âThe moon tonight should be gorgeous.â
âIt hasnât gone dark yet.â Lilâ Purple pouted.
Retracting his gaze, Lin Yun then turned to Lilâ Purple, âHeavenly Slaughter Emperor, Iâll be relying on you to leave the Demon Domain today.â
âDonât worry about it. Even if Iâm not at full strength, my divine runes arenât something that ordinary people can resist,â said Lilâ Purple.
Killing Thunderclap Sword Demon wasnât hard, so the challenge lay in leaving the Demon Domain. The Silver Moon Mask still wasnât enough, and having Lilâ Purple was better than nothing even though she wasnât too reliable yet.
âLetâs go then.â Lin Yun took in a deep breath before he turned to look in the Demon Domainâs direction. Just like that, they headed towards the Demon Domain that made disciples tremble in fear.
The Demon Domain was usually enveloped in a faint purple mist, and it was enveloped in eternal darkness. But on this night, the moon was casting a light on the Demon Domain.
Tonight was the full moon and the moon looked colossal. Sunlight couldnât break through the gray mist, but moonlight could shine brightly in the Demon Domain.
Lin Yun was alone by himself without Lilâ Red or Lilâ Purple around him. He would occasionally draw gazes from the surroundings, but nothing happened because it wasnât surprising for disciples from the sects to appear here. The Demon Domain wasnât too different from other places except for the fact that it had a baleful aura in its atmosphere. Although this place was mainly occupied by demonic cultivators and demonic sects, it wasnât surprising to see disciples from the sects.
âThis is unlike my imagination,â said Lin Yun while he headed towards an inn. The inn was filled with various noises as many demonic cultivators were drinking and chatting. Occasionally, there would even be fights breaking out.
âBrother, your help please.â When Lin Yun came in, a corpse was next to his foot and the waiter of the inn quickly came over to clean up the mess. The waiter swiftly took the body away and even wiped the blood off the ground. However, no one was surprised by the dead person.
Right now, everyone was discussing the saint artifact that was being auctioned by the Heavenly Star Pavilion today.
âHehe, Thunderclap Sword Demon is really formidable to snatch a saint artifact!â
âThis fellow is extremely high profile and really managed to catch a big fish this time. How envious!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat is there to envy? He nearly died at the hands of Flower Burial. He doesnât even dare to come out of the Heavenly Star Pavilion now!â Mentioning Flower Burial, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became intense as demonic cultivators argued among themselves.
âI wonder where that bastard came from, killing dozens of demonic cultivators over the past month like a mad dog. Even Thunderclap Sword Demon nearly died this time.â
âIf heâs really strong, then he should head to the Heavenly Star Pavilion to kill Thunderclap Sword Demon!â
Lin Yun raised his cup quietly. He didnât think that he would be able to find the trace of Leng Aoran so easily, but it looked like the Heavenly Star pavilion wasnât a pushover.
âI heard that the four major sects have sent their core disciples over to auction for the spear. After all, the Imperial Hook belonged to the King Suspend Palaceâs Chu Tianhao!â
â Thunderclap Sword Demon was heavily injured and he practically made himself an enemy with the four major sects. How could the four major sects let this opportunity go?â
âHehe, but Iâm afraid that theyâll be disappointed. After all, no one dares to make a move against the Heavenly Star Pavilion in the Demon Domain, not Chu Tianhao, not Ye Zilingâ¦â
âNo one can kill someone that the Heavenly Star Pavilion is protecting!â Everyone sounded pretty excited about the auction tonight. After all, saint artifacts were rarely seen, not to mention one that was being auctioned off as the personal saint artifact of Chu Tianhao. Furthermore, everyone was interested since this matter involved Flower Burial.
Lin Yun finished the wine in his cup before he left. He found Leng Aoran a lot faster than he expected. He finally realized why the demonic cultivators werenât surprised by his arrival. After all, many disciples of the four major sects were also here.
An hour later, Lin Yun joined up with Lilâ Purple and told the latter what he found out. When Lilâ Purple heard that, her face became serious, âSo the Heavenly Star Pavilion is actually that terrifying.. that makes sense. After all, that brat is so heavily injured, and he would need to find a place to hide and recover. I suggest that you give up.â
âI canât. That old geezer from the Fleeting Cloud Sword Sect wonât accept any negotiations. I have to obtain the True Dragon Saint Liquid no matter what,â said Lin Yun calmly. This matter involved his breakthrough to the limit of the Heavenly Soul Realm, so he naturally couldnât give up on it.
Tonight, Leng Aoran had to die no matter what, but only he knew if he was as calm as he looked. When he put the Silver Moon Mask on, his hair and clothes turned silver, âThe moon is really round today. Since the array has already been set up, wait here for me.â
He then soared into the sky while Lilâ Purple watched him disappear into the silver moon.
