Chapter 960 - Dragon Gate’s War Sovereign!
The Sovereign's Ascension
All of the Demon Slaughter Realm cultivators were feeling upset because they didnât go with the elites. After all, there was a high possibility that the corpse might have a Divine Core. The corpse might even have a few dao artifacts and martial techniques on it.
But most importantly, there might have been a trace of dao rhyme. Naturally, no one would feel happy if they missed out on such treasures.
Suddenly, the Demon Slaughter Realmâs elites, as well as Xu Que, ran out of the demonic fog. They were covered in wounds that matched their pathetic state. Even worse was the fact that Xu Queâs face was as white as a ghost. What just happened?
What happened to the elites and Xu Que? Everyone was curious about the heavy injuries, but no one dared to say anything in fear of Xu Queâs ferocious reputation.
âDamn it! Where did that damned cat come from?!â Xu Que was still brooding over Lilâ Red showing up out of nowhere. If he knew that Lilâ Red was nearby, he wouldnât have been so impulsive. Unfortunately, it was too late for regret. On top of that, he finally experienced Lin Yunâs real strength. Lin Yunâs fortune martial technique was enough to leave him in despair. In fact, if his cultivation wasnât strong enough, he would have been killed.
âDamn it! I refuse to accept this!â Xu Queâs eyes flashed with reluctance. âLetâs go. Iâm going to find Liu Mu. Weâll make Lin Yun pay!â
Despite his injuries, Xu Que was still full of schemes. It was clear for everyone that he held grudges.
âSo it was because of Flower Burial Lin Yun!â
âHe was there? I didnât even notice himâ¦â
âHaha, they deserved it.â Everyone took joy in Xu Queâs misfortune. Although they didnât dare to enter with Lin Yun around, it was better to lose to Lin Yun than the Demon Slaughter Realm.
Lin Yun passed through the demonic corpses in the surroundings and headed towards the massive stone. But just when he was about to get close, an invisible dragon aura spread out as a majestic dragon appeared before Lin Yun. Its eyes were radiating brightly with a glare that froze Lin Yun in his tracks.
It was as his entire soul would be shattered by the dragon aura. However, a sword hum echoed from Lin Yunâs body. His sky sword intent had revealed itself upon being threatened.
Golden flames blazed in the depth of Lin Yunâs pupils, causing the entire worldâs aura to fuse into the sword aura. Then, the aura collided with the dragon aura.
After a while, the dragon head slowly dissipated. Lin Yunâs face was still pale, but he was able to sigh in relief. He knew he would run into some dangers, but he had the sky sword intent to save his life.
When Lin Yun looked at the large stone again, he could sense that the dragon aura was a little weaker than before. Not wasting any time, Lin Yun descended on the stone. But when he stepped onto the stone, he could feel an immense pressure trying to force him to kneel.
Raising his head to look at the azure-clothed man standing at the center of the stone, Lin Yun exclaimed, âHow young!â
Because of the powerful aura, he had mistaken the cultivator as an old man or senior. Instead, he was met with someone who looked to be a few years older than him. Can someone so young transcend the Empyrean Realm?
Lin Yun never would have expected meeting a top-tier genius from the Golden Era by chance.
Lin Yun was also able to sense the lingering dao in the atmosphere. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the horizon, lighting up everything.
When the lightning flashed, the azure-clothed man became clear as day. And as soon as the bolt of lightning was about to dissipate, the azure-clothed man suddenly opened his eyes. BOundless radiance shined, which made Lin Yunâs heart beat wildly.
Just when he was feeling anxious, he was shocked to discover that he was in a barren land. All around him were demonic fiends that were charging at the azure-clothed man.
âGlory Iris Flower, Brilliant Shine!â The azure-clothed man raised his hand and hundreds of Iris Flowers bloomed behind him. With a flick of his finger, hundreds of demonic fiends were pierced in the forehead and died. The azure-clothed man looked incredibly mighty, despite his grave expression.
Then, Lin Yun noticed a massive array on the ground. Additionally, corpses littered the ground around the azure-clothed man. It turned out that his companions died and the array on the ground could shatter at any moment.
âBaili Qi, will you surrender?!â A majestic voice echoed from the horizon with enormous pressure.
âThe Dragon Gateâs War Sovereign will die fighting! I, Baili Qi, wonât surrender!â The azure-clothed man didnât hesitate as fighting spirit emitted from his body. His aura rose violently and broke through the boundary of the Empyrean Realm. In a last ditch effort, he managed to reach the Divine Core Realm.
But the moment he reached the Divine Core Realm, a gigantic demonic claw descended. The claw was covered with terrifying scales and sinister patterns. As it descended, heaven and earth instantly shattered.
Lin Yun woke up from the vision and immediately threw up. âIâm still alive?â
When the demonic claw descended, he felt like he died. But when he looked around, he realized that the vision was just a scene from the ancient battle. However, he could still hear the words of the azure-clothed youth.
âIf you want my Divine Core, you will have to succeed in my karma. No matter who you are, you will succeed the will of the Dragon Gateâs War Sovereign. Thereâs no way you can avoid this karma. Are you willing?â A voice sounded out in Lin Yunâs ears. Surprised, Lin Yun raised his head, but the azure-clothed manâs eyes were still closed.
Clearly, it was the azure-clothed manâs lingering will. Anyone who approached him would hear the same question as long as they had the qualification to watch the vision.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yun said, âIâm willing. If the demonic fiends descend in the future, Iâm willing to fight to my last breath with the sword in my hand!â
When Lin Yun said that, the azure-clothed figure faded away as it left behind a blazing Divine Core.
