Chapter 913 – Dao Altar Heavenly Bell

The sound of the bell lasted for ages, like a ripple spreading out on a pond.

All of the experts who had been meditating woke up. Their expressions were all a bit reluctant as if they didn’t want to leave.

It was obvious that they had profited much from this session, but unfortunately, it had to end.

At the same time, everyone who was left noticed that when the bell rang, the ancient blessed prayer ground disappeared, vanishing forever.

Instead, what caught everyone’s attention was an altar that stood about a hundred feet tall. It was old and ancient. On the top was a lone bronze bell that glowed faintly. Runes covered the entire body, making it look incomparably magical.

At once, everyone’s hearts shook, and their eyes glimmered with a fanatical light.

The Number One Fortune!

That bronze bell was the Ancient Dao Lantern Tree’s best fortune. No one needed to think to know that this bell had an astonishing history.

Now everyone understood that the earlier meditation session was a trial. Only the experts who could endure to the end had the qualifications to fight over the best fortune.

Bang!

Many cultivators couldn\'t help from climbing the dao altar. However, as soon as they took a step, a terrifying pressure appeared, pressing down so hard that they felt as if they were about to choke.

But no one shrank back. They clenched their jaws and circulated their cultivations to the peak.

The dao altar was old and ancient and was made from a mysterious azure divine bamboo. Flying was not permitted, so everyone had to climb the steps one by one.

Although it only looked like a distance of a hundred feet, it was harder than scaling to the heavens. As they went up, the terrible restriction continuously oppressed them, pressuring their minds to the extreme.

Even though it was difficult, nothing could stop them from climbing up. On the contrary, this only made them even more eager to scale up higher.

Lin Xun had also moved. He endured the pressure to go up one step at a time.

His entire body glittered with a glow as his qi roiled throughout him. His speed was neither slow nor fast and simply could be described as steady.

Everyone was startled when they realized that the higher they stepped, the more the dao altar seemed to expand and become loftier.

Finally, it looked as if the dao altar had reached the skies. It was as lofty as a mountain, encompassing the heavens and earth, and was marvelous beyond comparison. The ancient structure had reached the pinnacle.

Furthermore, as they continued to climb, they found out that the distance to the peak was becoming longer and longer…

It was too miraculous. A dao altar that was only a hundred feet tall actually hid something so mysterious. Climbing it was like going to the heavens, which was shocking beyond measure.

Fortunately, only about a dozen cultivators were left, and all of them were peerless individuals among the younger generation. Being able to endure until now truly showcased how strong they were.

In addition, as they climbed, no one was eliminated or banished from the space.

Time passed, and everyone got closer to the top part of the dao altar while enduring the pressure. They could also now clearly see the bronze bell at the eaves.

It was bright and resplendent, about half a foot tall. The bronze material glowed while the bell was engraved with numerous hard-to-understand dao lines. It was truly an ancient treasure.

From afar, it looked like it could suppress the heavens and earth and reign supreme!

There was no doubt that this treasure’s power was astonishing!

At this time, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. This was because they had almost reached the summit of the altar. In order to seize the bronze bell, a bloody and desperate fight was destined to take place.

As expected, a dangerous battle soon broke out. A few experts who were slightly behind the others impatiently attacked the ones in front of them.

Bang!

Luo Jia, a disciple of Miluo Palace, flipped a white hand and a bright treasure vase appeared on her head. It released an immortal and divine splendor, colliding with Li Qinghuan. Divine brilliance burst out between the two.

Li Qinghuan attacked first because Luo Jia was in front of him. She was a wall that was stopping him from seizing the fortune.

“Die!”

Yu Lingkong and a youth clothed in a gray robe clashed, starting another fight.

The gray-robed youth was named Shang Jia, and he was from an ancient sect. He was also considered a peerless individual among the younger generation in West Infinity World.

However, no one had thought that he would have a stunning performance against an apex expert like Yu Lingkong. In fact, he didn’t look the least bit weak and was giving off a good show.

These were peerless geniuses. Every single one of them had hidden trump cards and had probably held back purposefully in the past. In order to compete for the Number One Fortune, they were finally showing all that they had.

Pop!

Within moments, the clothes around Yu Lingkong’s shoulders ripped, revealing a bit of blood on his skin. He had actually gotten injured by Shang Jia’s golden spear.

However, the sword in Yu Lingkong’s hand cried out loudly, causing the golden spear to burst apart. It jolted Shang Jia, splitting apart his armor. Blood burst forth, and the stark white of his bones appeared.

It was hard to say whether someone had definitively won this encounter, but Shang Jia was definitely on the losing end now.

Despite that, the experts around them were afraid. Shang Jia had kept a low profile earlier, but now he had revealed some incredible fighting strength. It was quite inconceivable.

Fights broke out and spread throughout the group. Even Ji Xingyao became entangled. She was currently fighting with an expert from the Night Demon Clan who had black wings on his back. 

The Night Demon Clan was an extremely mysterious group. Rumor had it that a previous ancestor from the distant past was a soul born from a hellish pool that had grasped a secret skill called ‘Night Demon Thorn.’ It was extremely terrifying.

The one currently fighting Ji Xingyao was an expert from the Night Demon Clan called Shi Yun. He had clear features with skin that had a grayish tint to it and bright green eyes that resembled flames from a devil. His entire demeanor had the scary aura of a demon.

Shi Yun and Shang Jia both acted in the same way. In the past, they had stayed independent and did not draw the others’ attention. But now, they were showing their astonishing strength and talent.

Lin Xun also felt a bit alarmed inside. He had now realized that it wasn’t just himself who had hidden depths. In fact, all of the peerless experts here had deliberately held back and were extremely shrewd!

Swish!

Behind him, a scarlet tongue plummeted towards him. A chill ran through Lin Xun’s heart. He didn’t hesitate to activate Bixi Collision to defend himself.

The person who attacked him was a peerless genius from the Ba Serpent Clan named Ba Shanshui. He looked quite handsome, but his actions were extremely malicious and cruel. A giant forked snake tongue had appeared and above it flowed a scarlet liquid that was incredibly toxic. As soon as it touched a person, it would cause serious corrosion and would be hard to treat.

Rumble~

The forked tongue was sent flying. However, Ba Shanshui was quite decisive. When he saw that this move wouldn\'t work, he rapidly withdrew and headed in another direction.

If Lin Xun tried to chase him, then he’d end up losing his chance to speed up the dao altar. This evidently was what Ba Shanshui was targeting, which was why he had fearlessly tried to attack Lin Xun.

“If I ever catch you, then I’m going to sever your tongue!” Lin Xun’s eyes were chilly as he glanced at Ba Shanshui. However, he did not end up chasing the other man.

The dao altar was very tall and unyielding, yet there was only one set of steps to the top. All of the experts were rushing up, so it was inevitable that conflicts would break out. This was because no one was willing to step aside for anyone else. At the same time, no one would tolerate anyone going before them.

Before long, Lin Xun came across Ji Xingyao. The latter glared at him as she clenched her teeth and slashed at him with her sword.

Screech!

The divine sword was only three feet long, but its power had condensed into a sword seal that exploded from the tip. It looked as if it could cut through time and slaughter all living things.

Tri-life Sword Seal!

This was an exceptional technique transmitted from ancient times. It could sever the past, present, and future karmic ties by condensing all sword intent into one seal, having the power to disturb heaven and earth.

Back in the Flame Capital Martial Arena, Lin Xun had once firsthand seen how terrifying this technique was. However, he didn’t expect that as soon as he met with Ji Xingyao again that the latter would act ruthlessly immediately.

“This lass is definitely trying to take revenge on me!” Lin Xun’s expression darkened, but he still endured it in the end and retreated a bit before going in another direction up the dao altar.

Ji Xingyao’s elegant and flawless face immediately revealed a hint of disdain. She raised her snow-white chin and resembled a high and mighty fairy.

But in Lin Xun’s eyes, this became an act of provocation instead!

Lin Xun felt his jaw ache as rage bubbled. This arrogant little lass was truly too infuriating.

He immediately transmitted, “Xingyao, if you want to be this ruthless, then I’m afraid I can no longer keep some secrets safe for you anymore.”

“You…” Ji Xingyao’s clear eyes became wide, and her eyebrows shot straight up. Anger appeared on her beautiful face. It was obvious that she wanted to slaughter the scoundrel Lin Xun as she believed that he was being too shameless. It had been so long, yet he was still trying to use that to threaten her. Did he truly believe that she’d back off?

“If you truly dare to do that, then I’ll kill you!” Ji Xingyao’s delicate and slender figure was full of holy and severe sword intent. She resembled a raging fairy with an incredibly imposing manner.

“I’m not intimidated,” Lin Xun coldly huffed.

While conversing, the two of them continued to bolt up with all of their strength and didn’t waste a moment.

Before long, Lin Xun came across a disciple of Longevity Land, who was a flirtatious young lady wearing a fiery red crane overcoat.

Lin Xun still remembered that when he had met Bai Lingxi in front of the Four Seasons Pavilion that this young woman had once mocked him.

However, Lin Xun didn’t bother trying to engage with her and instead did all he could to rush forward.

“Back off!”

The woman wearing the fiery red crane overcoat was called Yan Xia. When she saw Lin Xun slip past her to go toward the top of the dao altar, she was angered and yelled out. She raised a hand to send out a fiery spirit whip, lashing at Lin Xun’s back.

“Hmph!”

Lin Xun had no desire to be polite and reacted with all of his strength.

In the end, Yan Xia cried out mournfully. Within a breath of time, she had been sent back flying by Lin Xun’s fist and had fallen down the altar horizontally.

“How dare he!”

“Demon God Lin, you’re asking for death!”

Around them, the other remaining disciples of Longevity Land cried out indignantly and did not try to hide their killing intent.

“What? Do you guys want to play with me too?” Lin Xun’s black eyes were icy cold.

“Quickly go up the dao altar and then deal with him!” In the distance, Yu Lingkong apathetically ordered them. His voice was tranquil yet was also threaded with a hint of scary chill.

They were almost at the top of the dao altar, so the fights became even more intense. Everyone was struggling against the awful pressure while also acting against the others. The situation had become quite dangerous.

Soon, some cultivators had begun to fall, dyeing the surroundings with blood. Lin Xun hadn’t even gotten the chance to take revenge on the Ba Serpent Clan’s Ba Shanshui when Li Qinghuan shoved a sword into the other person’s mouth. Ba Shanshui raised his head as he fell, showering the area with his blood.

The battles were too bitter. Even peerless geniuses could end up in great danger, so it wasn’t surprising that many people had already been injured.

Suddenly, a glaring golden light appeared, which made Lin Xun’s eyes flicker. Then a stabbing pain could be felt on his skin.

He immediately realized he had encountered a strong foe!
