Chapter 929: Rumors of the Hometown of the Saints



To him, Xie Yutang, Qing Lian’er, and Zhuo Kuanglan were his most hated enemies. Of course, the hate was mutual. If he didn’t get rid of them now, who knew how much more trouble they would try to give him in the future?

Pop!

Without any surprises popping up, he was able to behead Zhuo Kuanglan, the disciple of the Feather Sword Sect, before long. He died on the scene.

As for Xie Yutang, Lin Xun thought for a bit before finally deciding not to kill him.

Xie Yutang had already sunk into despair, but when he saw this development, his eyes opened wide. It was hard for him to understand why Lin Xun would let him go now.

Following that, a calm and chilly voice echoed in his ears, “Don’t forget what I once told you at the start of the Dao Lantern Festival.”

“You…”

Xie Yutang broke into a rage as his face became white.

He finally understood why Lin Xun didn’t kill him. It wasn’t because the other person had decided to be merciful; instead, it was for another purpose!

“I’ll let you personally witness just how high I can rise in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, just how I will strive for the top step by step. As for you, you are destined to be a pathetic worm, only living in my shadow!”

How could Xie Yutang possibly forget that?

To him, it was the biggest humiliation he had ever undergone in his life!

For a split second, Xie Yutang’s eyes filled with a mixture of bitter resentment and fright. His entire body went rigid as his mind went blank. He stood there dully.

Bai Lingxi stared at him somewhat helplessly before shaking her head. She muttered to herself, “The Xie Family is also considered one of the seven most powerful clans in the empire. Back then, Xie Yutang was so proud and confident in himself. Who would have thought after entering the Ancient Wasteland Domain that he would no longer be himself anymore…”

As she spoke, she turned around and didn’t spare another look for him.

……

Eh?

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and then finally let out a short sigh.

At the same time, the King-level forbidden restriction that covered the entire mountain buzzed before emitting a resplendent might. Then it became dark, and the rune lines disappeared.

Within the blink of an eye, the giant array disappeared like a cloud of smoke.

The reason was simple. The aeth essence veins in the mountain had been completely used up, leaving nothing but waste behind. There was no way for it to supply more power to the King-level forbidden restriction.

When the great array disappeared, it revealed the true face of the mountain. A thick scent of blood momentarily spread out, choking the senses.

Every corner of the mountain was filled with broken corpses, bright red splashes of blood, fractured treasures…it was truly a bloody mess.

In fact, the entire mountain was now the scarlet-red color of blood, which was frightening to behold.

This was the result of activating the King-level forbidden array. A portion of the experts had been directly converted into ash, so not even a hint of them was retained on the mountain.

At this time, the mountainous wind whistled. Only about a dozen experts were still alive. They were situated in different regions, and all of them were covered in blood. They were gasping for air as their faces were filled with the shock of getting out of that death trap alive.

Through sheer luck, they had survived that encounter, which they found somewhat hard to believe. They still thought they were dreaming, and a lot of time passed before they finally realized it was true.

“Lin Xun!”

Everyone immediately looked around the mountain before spotting Lin Xun under an old and vigorous pine tree. His figure was straight and proud, and a customary calm look was on his face.

Compared to before, these experts now looked at Lin Xun with more bitterness, hatred, and fury. At the same time, a feeling of fear towards him had settled into their hearts.

After all, this youth who looked harmless from the outside had meticulously set down a King-level forbidden array and tricked over a dozen experts at the half-step King stage to go into the trap and die!

This was too astonishing and shocking and was more than enough to frighten most experts. If this came out, it was inevitable that it’d cause waves throughout the West Infinity World. Many old orthodoxies would not be able to sit still.

However, why did Lin Xun let them go at the most crucial point?

Just what was he scheming?

All of the survivors had those questions in mind as they stared at him. They had fallen face first into a giant trap and narrowly escaped with their lives. This made them feel very wary of Lin Xun. They had no desire to act rashly now, in case that might cause some crazy consequence.

Contrary to their expectations, Lin Xun didn’t say anything, and not a ripple of emotion appeared on his face. Instead, he and Bai Lingxi turned around and left.

Whoosh!

The Grand Universe Ark lightly flashed and crossed the skies within a moment, disappearing without a trace.

“That…”

“Did he just leave?”

“We’re still alive…”

The remaining experts fell into a daze as they couldn’t believe their eyes.

But before long, they understood what was going on.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

From the faraway distance came the ear-piercing sound of something shattering the heavens. Beams of light similar to a rainbow appeared, bright and resplendent. They were headed towards where they were.

They were a group of experts, and there were around ten of them. All of them were full of aggressive and explosive might.

When they witnessed that, the remaining experts finally understood what was going on. Demon God Lin hadn’t been acting mercifully towards them. Instead, he had long sensed a new group of strong enemies coming toward him!

“Demon God Lin must be in the vicinity!” yelled a few people in the distance excitedly.

“Eh! That is…”

Once they got close to the mountain, these experts felt their eyes constricting. They could sense the weird atmosphere here. The mountain was dyed with blood and destroyed corpses covered the entire area. It was obvious that a desperate and horrible fight had just occurred there.

Furthermore, once they heard what had happened here, the aggressive group of experts all felt their bodies grow stiff and their expressions changed. Cold sweat dripped down their foreheads.

The implications were too scary. If they had arrived earlier, then wouldn’t they have been the ones to be stuck in the death trap?

Before long, another group of experts appeared in the faraway sky. Their goal was the same: kill Demon God Lin and steal his treasures.

But similar to the first group, they were also bitterly disappointed and shocked beyond measure.

Who would have thought that Demon God Lin would rely on a King-level forbidden array to directly kill a dozen or so half-step King experts at once?

“Within the younger generation in the West Infinity World, Demon God Lin has to be ranked number one now…”

Some experts sighed with complicated expressions.

“He came from the lower domain. It’s only been a year yet he’s made all of West Infinity World to go into an uproar. In the future…who can possibly control him?”

“It just stinks. He actually escaped from the Dao Lantern Festival, so we\'ve missed the best timing to kill him!”

No matter what they discussed, everyone was clear about one thing. From today onwards, anyone who wanted to kill Demon God Lin would have to decide whether they had enough power to do so!

It was simply one Dao Lantern Festival, but countless participants had died at his hands. Sha Liuchan, Zhongli Wijui, Yu Lingkong, Qing Lian’er…

Every single one of those peerless geniuses had a giant power standing behind them, but Demon God Lin didn’t care. He went on a rampage, killing as he pleased, and never held back due to fear.

Even now, over ten half-step king experts had been eliminated in one swoop. In the future, unless they had a personal grievance with Lin Xun, who would possibly try to deal with him?

……

“The road going forward will probably be a bit peaceful.” On the Grand Universe Ark that was traveling within the clouds, Lin Xun could finally relax a bit.

“More peaceful?” Bai Lingxi couldn’t help from reminding him, “You’ve killed so many disciples from the ancient orthodoxies. As long as you stay in West Infinity World, there will be numerous enemies knocking at your door.”

She then continued, “Don’t forget about the powers within the ancient orthodoxies. They have occupied their territories for numerous years and still haven’t fallen. This means that they have very deep foundations and immense power. Even King-level experts fear them.”

Lin Xun nodded; he also understood this.

The reason why the ancient orthodoxies were so feared was that they all had King-level experts backing them up. In fact, they usually had more than one.

Furthermore, for the apex ancient orthodoxies, they usually had an actual Saint!

For example, the number one sect in West Infinity World, Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, had a living Saint guarding them.

This was the foundation of an ancient sect and the reason why ancient orthodoxies were a step above other powers.

“So once I finish everything I need to do here, I will leave West Infinity World immediately. Since I can’t fight with them head-on, doesn’t that mean I’ll just have to stay in hiding for a bit?” asked Lin Xun with a hint of laughter in his voice.

“Immediately? Where do you plan on going?” Bai Lingxi was quite curious.

“East Victory World.”

Lin Xun didn’t try to conceal his plans. He needed to get ready to get his revenge, so he first needed to get some information on the Omega Sword Sect. He especially needed to understand what kind of person Yun Qingbai was!

“The East Victory World is the most splendid and glorious area in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Using the phrase, ‘thousands of orthodoxies and ten of thousands of clans competing’ to describe it would not be an exaggeration.”

Bai Lingxi was obviously aware of some news from the East Victory World. She continued, “For example, in the West Infinity World, only a few places like the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms have actual Saints behind them.”

She paused before saying, “However, in the East Victory World, there are over a dozen sects like the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms.”

Lin Xun was shocked. He had never expected that the difference between two regions could be that large.

Bai Lingxi hadn’t finished. “Furthermore, East Victory World is considered the origin of the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Since ancient times, it has been known as the ‘hometown of all saints, and the ‘land of eternal saints’. Its heritage has a long history that far surpasses the other three realms.

She continued, “I once heard Yu Lingkong say that out of the ten apex geniuses of the younger generation, seven are from East Victory World. As for the remaining three, only one has come from West Infinity World, South Wonder World, and North Dipper World respectively. From this, it is easy to tell just how flourishing and splendid East Victory World is!”

Once she got there, she was unable to stop a hint of longing and yearning from appearing in her voice.

Lin Xun couldn’t help from being moved after hearing this either. This was the hometown of saints and the land of eternal saints! Just hearing those phrases was enough to convince him that East Victory World was beyond the ordinary.

“Before we came to the West Infinity World, Yu Lingkong once said that when we left, we were going to directly go to East Victory World. This is because when the Genius Gold Rankings appear, it will definitely show up in the East Victory World.”

She continued, “Also, you need to be aware, from ancient times until now, that only people who have their names appear in this list are considered true peerless geniuses. Only those people have the qualifications to compete for the Absolute Apex King Stage in the battle of the great ages!”

When he heard this, Lin Xun turned pensive as he responded, “If that’s the truth, then doesn’t that mean the peerless individuals from the four regions have to rush towards East Victory World before the battle of the great ages starts?”

“That’s right.” Bai Lingxi nodded.

She suddenly thought of something else. A hint of seriousness disappeared on her brow as she said, “I have something else to remind you of.”

“What?”

“Yu Lingkong is not dead!”

Lin Xun’s eyes abruptly flashed. It was hard for him to believe. After all, he had personally killed Yu Lingkong, so how could he still be alive?

Bai Lingxi carefully said, “This is because he has a strand of his soul held within the Longevity Palace. Unless that strand is wiped out, there is no way anyone in this world can kill Yu Lingkong!”

Lin Xun finally understood what was going on, and it was hard for him to remain calm. He frowned as he said, “From what you‘re saying, if I want to get rid of that sliver of soul, then I need to have some way to completely suppress the Longevity Place?”

“That’s right.” Bai Lingxi sighed slightly. “No matter if it is Longevity Land or the members of the Yu Clan, none of them would allow Yu Lingkong to be killed. This is because all of them view him in a favorable light and believe that he has the best chance to step foot into the Absolute Apex King path!”

Lin Xun fell silent for a moment before finally grinning. “If I can kill him once, then I can kill him a second, third, even countless times!”
