Chapter 2349 - Sword In Hand, Follow Me!
The Sovereign's Ascension
âGet lost!â Ao Jue tore apart the incoming attacks, which was the martial technique of the Suspension Palace. The other locations were also in chaos from the battles, and the scale of this battle surpassed everyone's imagination.
The Gu Clan thought they could suppress Lin Yun with their deityâs bloodline, but they didnât expect so many swordsmen to stand on Lin Yunâs side. They might be in a mess with no order, but they had displayed the pride of a swordsman by placing their lives on the line.
âHahaha! Thatâs satisfying!â Xiong Tiannan faced four opponents by himself and fully unleashed the power of his Golden Crow Divine Physique.
Ji Zixi and Lin Jiangxian werenât weak either. They withstood the aura of the deityâs bloodline, holding their ground. After all, the Gu Clan had activated their bloodline and even formed into an array.
But Gu Jun was in a pathetic state. His opponent was Lin Yun, who ignored everyone else and came after him. Lin Yun pushed his Divine Light Sword Intent to the limit as he suppressed Gu Jun.
This made Gu Jun feel aggrieved, and he would have his face slapped by Lin Yun if he wasnât careful.
âAs expected of the Golden Jade Divine Physique. If you didnât have it, your head wouldâve blown up,â Lin Yun mocked.
Gu Jun was furious as he charged forth, wanting to rely on the deityâs bloodline to suppress Lin Yun. But Lin Yun was agile and had no weakness in his sword aura. No matter how furious Gu Jun was, he couldnât touch Lin Yun no matter how much he tried.
Lin Yun wasnât a fool but his Dragonâs Blood was boiling, and each attack could easily inflict heavy injuries on a seventh-stage Saint Lord. When a sword ray shone out from him, it formed into azure dragons that were wandering around. This was to help the other swordsmen to withstand the aura of the deityâs bloodline, or they would suffer a considerable loss.
Gu Jun nearly threw out blood because he couldnât touch Lin Yun, no matter how much he tried. He was in the array and should have the advantage in the fight. But there wasnât anything he could do under Lin Yunâs sword techniques. He even wanted to summon his constellation to deal with Lin Yun, but thinking that Lin Yun didnât even draw his sword, he could only endure it.
âOh my god! Whatâs going on?â
âHahaha! This is very exciting!â
âLin Yun is really strong. He won the other swordsmen over and theyâre willing to make a move for him.â
âIs this still the arrogant Divine Clan? How many people from the Azure Cloud Realm have suffered a grievance because of the Divine Clan?â
âThis is really shocking.â Many cultivators forgot they were still taking part in a test and could feel their blood boiling. When they saw Lin Yun give Gu Jun a beating, they couldnât help smiling. They were happy that someone could finally teach the Divine Clan a lesson. This was because they could only suck it up whenever they were bullied by the Divine Clan before.
A huge commotion came on the stairs, with a powerful pressure sweeping out, making everyone fall to their knees. This caused Lin Yun and the Gu Clan to be shocked as both parties took a few steps back.
âItâs the Deity Slaughter Monument!â
âSomeone left their name on the Deity Slaughter Monument!â Everyone raised their heads and looked at the golden radiance with golden flowers descending. In the end, the flowers formed into three fruits that someone grabbed.
This left many people shocked and couldnât recover for a long time. Anyone could guess that the three fruits were highly precious, and they were rewards given by the Heavenly Barren Ancestral Deity.
âThat person managed to leave his name on it and made three golden radiances appear,â Ao Jue said as he approached Lin Yunâs side.
âThereâs a reward...â Lin Yun needed resources now. A seventh-stage Saint Lord was unique because one could try and make a breakthrough after reaching the pinnacle. There wasnât any bottleneck, but the tribulation was dangerous, and one required resources to compensate for the exhaustion required. He could tell that the three fruits were treasures. Thinking about it, Lin Yunâs face sank, and he looked at Gu Jun, âGet lost!â
Gu Junâs face became cold, and he wanted to refute it, but a voice suddenly resounded in his ears, âLet him come.â
When Gu Jun heard that voice, he became excited, and smiled, âLin Yun, do you think that you can leave your name on the Deity Slaughter Monument? Iâll tell you beforehand. Iâm not the only one who wants your Golden Dao Fruit, and Iâm afraid everyone will become even more attracted after seeing how strong you are. Itâs a crime to possess treasures, so you can come if you have the guts. Iâll wait for you at the Deity Slaughter Monument!â
He sounded as though he was afraid that Lin Yun wouldnât go. He glared at all the swordsmen before stopping on Ao Jue. His face was vicious, and he said, âHahaha! You guys want to get through the test after offending my Divine Clan? None of you can escape!
âLetâs go!â Gu Jun left without any hesitation.
Ao Jue rubbed his nose and smiled, âGu Jun probably received some news, and it will be dangerous up ahead.â
Anyone could sense it from Gu Jun's actions without him saying anything.
Xiong Tiannan said, âLin Yun, donât care about him and just charge forth!â
Ji Zixi and Lin Jiangxian didnât speak but they looked at Lin Yun to express their support. Lin Yun wanted to say something, but he noticed many people were looking at him, and they were all swordsmen.
âHahaha! Isnât Flower Burial worried about us? It doesnât matter, weâll charge on with you!â
âWeâre here to join the fun, to begin with. So it doesnât matter if we can leave our names on the monument.â
âThe Divine Clan is too much, but we can finally vent it out.â
âYoung Master Lin, donât hesitate. Weâll charge on with you!â
âWeâre swordsmen, and we all have a grudge against the Divine Clans. We have had our treasures snatched before. As swordsmen, weâre not afraid to fight!â
âWell said!â The swordsmen became even more furious as they spoke.
Lin Yun didnât know what to say. He initially wanted to tell them not to follow him since it would be dangerous, but he didnât expect that they were more hot-blooded than him.
âBig Brother Lin, make the decision!â Ji Zixi said. She was only seventeen or eighteen, but she became hot-blooded upon seeing this scene.
Lin Jiangxian also looked at Lin Yun, and said, âYou only have to give the word. Iâll go with you no matter where we go.â
âAlright!â Lin Yun laughed. He raised the tree branch in his hand, and said, âSince all of you are willing to follow me, letâs just charge! With a sword in hand, follow me! Weâll kill the divine dogs!â
All the swordsmen were briefly stunned, before they laughed, ââWith a sword in hand, weâll kill the divine dogs!ââ
Lin Yun looked at everyone as they chanted the slogan. Everyone else was shocked when they saw this scene.
âIt looks like the world is pissed with the Divine Clans!â
âTheyâre swordsmen, but theyâre too ruthless! For the Divine Clans to be called a divine dog, hahaha!â
âIt looks like Lin Yunâs fame will spread far and wide this time, and thereâs a show to watch!â The other cultivators were stunned before they followed behind, increasing their speed.
The Gu Clan was fast after they activated their bloodline and sped up the stairs. It didnât take long before they could see the outline of the Deity Slaughter Monument.
Gu Xing said beside Gu Jun, âBig Brother Jun, werenât you a little too obvious earlier? What if Lin Yun doesnât come?â
Gu Jun smiled, âI did it on purpose. Lin Yun will come, but those words werenât directed at him.â
âWho were they directed to then?â Gu Xing asked.
Gu Jun said, âAt those swordsmen. They might be mortal blood, but itâs troublesome once theyâre banded together. Otherwise, we could have suppressed Lin Yun earlier by forming an array.â
While mentioning that, Gu Jun was furious because it was all Ao Jueâs fault.
âI only said that to intimidate the swordsmen. At that time, it will be easier to deal with Lin Yun,â Gu Jun revealed his plan.
Gu Xing briefly pondered, before he couldnât help smiling, âBig Brother Jun is really smart...â
ââWith a sword in hand, kill the divine dogs!ââ
Roars echoed from beneath the stairs with rippling sword intent.
âWhatâs going on...?â Gu Jun and Gu Xing were shocked as they turned around. They saw that the number of swordsmen had increased instead of decreased as they chanted the slogan, charging over.
This left Gu Jun and Gu Xingâs faces pale, and Gu Jun said, âQuick... Leave quickly! To the Deity Slaughter Monument!â
