Chapter 1008 Treacherous Situation

North Light City was destroyed, and the casualties were so great that they were innumerable.

Demon God Lin displayed his divine powers and suppressed all successors from Heaven Axis Holy Land. 

The battle of Saint treasures was earth-shaking.

Overnight, the news spread throughout the Ancient Blue Province at an astonishing speed like a prairie fire, setting off countless uproars.

The Ancient Blue Province became as turbulent as a gathering storm and countless cultivators were shaken to the core

Rumor had it that when the sect master of the Heaven Axis Holy Land heard the news, he crushed the teacup in his hand and uttered six words with a livid face—

The boy needs to be killed!

Very quickly, another piece of news came out that everyone in the Heaven Axis Holy Land was enraged, and several Life Death King Stage old monsters came out of closed-door cultivation and quietly left the sect.

Some people even spotted Chu Beihai, who should have been at the Stone Appraisal Event in Jade Flame City, in front of the ruins of North Light City that night.

He was a leading figure of the younger generation of Heaven Axis Holy Land. He seemed to be shrouded in a halo of light, drawing the attention of everyone wherever he went. 

But to deal with Demon God Lin, he had to go to North Light City in person!

Soon, it was reported that Demon God Lin had already gone to Sand Cloud City, intending to exchange the several captured core disciples of Heaven Axis Holy Land for the opportunity to leave Ancient Blue Province.

Commotions immediately broke out all over the Ancient Blue Province.

Discussions constantly rang out in different areas, all involving Demon God Lin.

“When everyone had doubts about Demon God Lin who came from the lower domain, he prevailed! He is amazing.”

“Unquestionably, Demon God Lin is a remarkable character who has set foot onto the Supreme Path. Amazingly, he could counterattack after being hunted down for so many days and utterly crushed Heaven Axis Holy Land. He is indeed worthy of the title Demon God!”

Soon, Lin Xun’s unbelievable feats in the West Infinity World were revealed by the investigators of the Windspeaker Clan and stirred the world again and again. 

“He has no one but himself yet he managed to stir up a storm in the West Infinity World! That boy…is truly terrifying!”

“He holds a pagoda, which is a true Saint treasure! It once suppressed the supreme Saint treasure Longevity Palace of the Longevity Land in the South Wonder World. It also blocked the attack of the Sunfire Golden Spear, the Saint treasure of Heaven Axis Holy Land.”

“A Saint treasure like that will make any of the ancient sects and clans envious. As the saying goes, an innocent man can get into danger because of his wealth. Even if the Heaven Axis Holy Land takes no action, his treasure will be coveted by many other forces.”

“I wonder whether the boy can escape the wrath of Heaven Axis Holy Land…”

Some people pitied Demon God Lin, thinking that he lacked nothing but an identity and status that could deter the world.

If he was a successor from an ancient sect, then his situation would have been completely different.

“Since ancient times, there have been dazzling figures who walked the world alone and stirred up storms with their own strength as Demon God Lin had done, but it never ended well for those who start a feud with the ancient sects and clans.“

“I was looking forward to the rise of a peerless figure, but now it seems like Demon God Lin also can’t escape the fate of death.”

What did it mean by name quaking the world?

This was it. Even if Lin Xun had been hunted down in recent days, he had proven his strength with bloody feats and caused a sensation in the entire Ancient Blue Province. Within a short period, his name had spread all over the world. 

Every advantage had its disadvantages. As cultivators analyzed Lin Xun’s situation, many believed his situation was not optimistic.

Ultimately, there was only one reason. Although Lin Xun was powerful, he had yet to fully grow. He might be able to summon the wind and rain among the younger generation, but he was no threat to ancient sects such as Heaven Axis Holy Land.

Adding to that, he was alone and had no one to rely on. He also carried a Saint treasure on him which could ignite a covetous desire in anyone and bring trouble to himself. 

He had stirred up too big of a storm this time and infuriated Heaven Axis Holy Land. It seemed impossible that he could leave the Ancient Blue Province alive!

……

Before the news spread, Lin Xun had already arrived in the Sand Cloud City.

The ancient teleportation array was still the same as when Lin Xun arrived for the first time: a group of cultivators was surrounding him.

Also, it was the same group of people.

“Heavens! That guy is back again...” Yang Chengbo, the city lord of Sand Cloud City, stared wide-eyed at Lin Xun as if he was seeing a ghost. 

How would he not know about the terror of Lin Xun after he subdued him in one blow? That tragic defeat also left an unerasable shadow in his heart!

The other cultivators were also aghast. 

They were still unaware of Lin Xun’s unbelievable feat in the North Light City. Otherwise, they would be even more terrified.

“Off you go, it won’t be peaceful here,” Lin Xun directly urged the cultivators to leave. 

The simple sentence made Yang Chengbo and the others scatter and flee in a panic as if their butts had caught fire. 

Lin Xun blinked blankly. “Am I that scary?”

A quarter of an hour later. 

After Lin Xun had set up the Four Divisions King Array in front of the ancient teleportation array, he sat down cross-legged in it and waited quietly.

Although he knew that Heaven Axis Holy Land would begrudgingly accept his demand in exchange for Xue Qianhen and others, he still dared not be careless.

An ancient sect had to possess a foundation beyond imagination if it could stand to this day. 

Lin Xun had utterly offended them, so it was hard to say that they would not take some special measures to deal with him.

Time slowly passed by. 

As night fell, Sand Cloud City looked cold and lonely. There was not a shadow on the usually bustling streets.

The atmosphere was not only silent but also oppressive. 

In the great array, Lin Xun, who was meditating, suddenly furrowed his brow, realizing a serious problem.

The opponents might not attack openly, but there is no guarantee that they will not secretly set up some tricks to stop me!

“On the surface, the Saints might not deal with me to protect their reputation, but who would know if they attacked in the dark?”

At this thought, Lin Xun felt a chill run down his back. He realized that he hadn’t fully considered everything.

He held a Saint treasure that even Saints coveted!

“Then I need to change my strategy…”

As a precaution, Lin Xun decided to not wait any longer.

Buzz!

He brought out the Dao Immeasurable Bottle and, at the same time, activated the Four Divisions King Array. 

The next second, terrifying forbidden waves of energy soared into the sky around the ancient teleportation array, turning into a divine brilliance that flooded the sky. It was an amazing spectacle under the night sky.  

But very quickly, all the visions faded. 

At the same time, Lin Xun collapsed on his buttocks, his clothes torn, his face deathly pale, and his brows wrinkled with unconcealable exhaustion. 

However, he felt relieved as he gazed at the Dao Immeasurable Bottle in his hand. 

“Thirty thousand high-grade aeth essence is needed to activate the power of the Four Divisions King Array once. Now, the power of this array has been absorbed by the Dao Immeasurable Bottle…

“After being strengthened by the Dao Immeasurable Bottle, the power will be twice that of the  Four Divisions King Array!”

Lin Xun’s dark eyes were as bright as the stars.

This was one of his trump cards. It gave him the confidence to deal with even old monsters of the Life Death Stage. The Four Divisions King Array was already extremely terrifying, capable of imprisoning and killing Life Death Stage Kings, but now, its power had been absorbed and strengthened by the Dao Immeasurable Bottle!

If it was used against the enemy, then it could release incredible destructive power.

However, even if the Dao Immeasurable Bottle was amazing, Lin Xun had to exhaust a lot of energy to manipulate the bottle to absorb the power so he almost collapsed.  

At present, Lin Xun could at most manipulate the Dao Immeasurable Bottle to accumulate power equivalent to the level of the king stage. Otherwise, he would also be impacted by the power. 

As Lin Xun carefully put away the Dao Immeasurable Bottle, he drew a deep breath and arranged the Illusion Forbidden Array near the ancient teleportation array.

Although the Illusion Forbidden Array could not compare to a king-grade array, it was very effective in concealing his whereabouts. Even old monsters of the Life Death Stage would not be able to see through it. 

“In addition to the rune materials needed to set up the arrays, I have to waste another ten thousand high-grade aeth essence...” Lin Xun sighed. 

Many materials and aeth essence were required to set up arrays. Although he did not lack those items, his heart still ached a little at the thought of spending so much of his fortune just to escape. 

Before long, the Illusion Forbidden Array was activated, spreading across the surroundings of the ancient teleportation array. A dense fog enveloped the area, which not only blocked cultivators but also spirit sense from prying into the truth. 

……

The sky was still dark, but it was already early morning.

Everything was deathly quiet. There was not a chirp of birds or insects. The entire Sand Cloud City seemed to have turned into a desolate city.

The atmosphere grew more and more oppressive, and it was unknown when rapidly thickening black clouds scudded across the sky and obscured the sky of stars. 

Hu—Hu—Hu—

The wind whistling in the boundless sky resembled the spine-chilling cries of ghosts and howls of wolves. 

Suddenly, a dazzling figure descended at the gate of the city. The golden light flowing around his entire body quickly dispelled the darkness.

The feathered hat crowning his face and the feathered cloak draped over his body accentuated his noble and handsome appearance. His every movement and gesture exuded an unrivaled elegance and confidence. He was precisely Chu Beihai, the leading figure of the younger generation of the Heaven Axis Holy Land.

With his hands clasped behind his back, he paced along the dark street. In the blink of an eye, he came to the ancient teleportation array in the center of the city.

He was at first slightly taken aback by the Illusion Forbidden Array, but then a cryptic smile curled the corners of his lips.  

“Lin Xun, as you wish, I am here.” Chu Beihai stated, his clear and melodious voice echoing endlessly in the night.

However, no one responded from the Illusion Forbidden Array. 

Chu Beihai smiled and took out a palm-sized prohibition talisman that was inscribed with dense and mysterious runes. 

“Let Xue Qianhen and the others go, and this talisman is yours.” From the start, Chu Beihai appeared very calm and composed. 

Still, no one responded. 

Chu Beihai’s eyes flashed like lightning as he peered into the Illusion Forbidden Array. Frowning, he reassured, “What? Are you worried about an ambush? Don’t worry, in my opinion, saving Xue Qianhen and the others is more important than killing you now!”

His voice was tinged with a hint of disdain as if he thought that Lin Xun was too cautious and cowardly.

The only sound that could be heard was the howling wind, which felt like a whetted knife, but it still failed to disperse the thick fog within the Illusion Forbidden Array.  

After a long moment without a response, a bad feeling surged in Chu Beihai’s heart.
