Chapter 1134 The Number One Heretic



Although they were all below the King stage, no one dared to relax their guard because a King could be born at any moment!

As everyone knew, only top-class heaven prides could hope to achieve the Supreme King stage.

Then why would the ancient dao lineages send out so many disciples?

The reason was simple. While these disciples had low chances of becoming a Supreme King, they still had the potential to advance to the King stage!

It was foreseeable that before long, many new Kings would be born from the younger generations and then rely on their high cultivation to crush their opponents!

It was a race with limited time!

Despite the fact that the Supreme Realm would be open for ten years, no one slacked off because dangers presented everywhere and the competition was brutal.

Lin Xun also entered the Supreme Realm for the sake of becoming a King.

However, he sought the Supreme King stage on a path that was different from everyone else in the world, which was destined to be difficult.

The King stage was regarded as one of life and death.

Becoming a King meant transcending the five great cultivation stages and breaking free from the shackles of mortality. Its impact on one’s cultivation far surpassed any previous stage as it would dictate one’s future achievement on the path of longevity.

Lin Xun had decided a long time ago not to take the path of his predecessors. He wanted to pave a road of his own and compete with the sages.

Moreover, according to the mysterious woman, the King stage also determined the path to Sainthood in the future!

So if this step was not taken well, then his future achievements would be limited.

Now that Lin Xun had arrived at the Burning Immortal World, his top priority was to meet up with Toady and A’lu, and then search for the great opportunities that could get him ready for constructing his King path!

……

In the fiery red world, Lin Xun figured out what direction he needed to go before starting to rush through the forest of towering, red trees.

As one of the three thousand worlds, the Burning Immortal World was like a vast, expanding small world. Along the way, he encountered quite a number of cultivators, all of whom were in a hurry.

Obviously, they were all seizing the time to seek for opportunistic fortunes.

In the distance, there were sounds of fierce battles as a group of cultivators were fighting, causing the surroundings to lose colors under a dazzling array of skills of treasures.

They were fighting over an ancient stone well, which was constantly erupting a bright red haze that overflowed with an amazing divine aura.

There was no doubt that an opportunistic fortune hid beneath that stone well!

After only one glance, Lin Xun decided to avoid it from afar and continued on his way.

He had already encountered many similar conflicts and killings, and the things that had caused them were nothing more than some aeth herbs, exotic treasures, spirit materials, and some mystical treasures.

All of those counted as opportunistic fortunes that couldn’t be encountered in the outside world, but they were not attractive to Lin Xun who had reached the peak of his current path. What he needed was a grand opportunity that could enable him to forge the path to the Supreme King stage.

Two days flew by.

Whoosh!

A huge fish suddenly leapt out from the burning red river that Lin Xun was passing by with a wide open mouth.

This fish was about ten feet long with a jade-like red color, whiskers as long as that of a dragon, a scaly tail, and strange flaming wings on its sides.

Boom!

Its power was extremely powerful, as it covered its surroundings in a fog so fiery that it incinerated the air. In its bloody mouth, halberd-like, sharp teeth gleamed with an intimidatingly icy light.

Bang!

Lin Xun’s figure flickered, easily avoiding it, only to see the small hill behind him instantly being melted into nothingness by the fiery fog covering the fish. He then quickly charged forth and deployed a punch that made the heavens and earth rumble.

The red fish did not dodge. It flung its tail and countered his punch!

Lin Xun was startled. A random punch at his current power was enough to kill an apex giant.

Even an absolute apex giant wouldn’t dare to take his attack head-on.

But this fish managed to do so!

“Interesting. Again!”

Treading across the sky with the Hornless Ice Dragon Step while shrouded in a brilliant glow, Lin Xun looked like a demonic god as he utilized the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art.

The fiery red fish soon failed to keep up and was suppressed by his punches. The scales on its body began to peel off one after another.

Whoosh!

It decisively fled back to the river at an astonishing speed when it realized that the situation was not in its favor.

Lin Xun was hot on its heels while deploying attacks non-stop.

To his surprise, the red fish suddenly shrunk into the size of a palm and avoided his strikes, successfully entering the river.

With a plop, it disappeared among the splashing red droplets.

Lin Xun felt humiliated letting a fish escape right under his nose. When he was about to chase after it, a fluttering sensation surfaced in his heart.

It was as if there was some kind of great terror hidden underneath the red river!

Lin Xun immediately stopped and backed away. He spread his spirit sense and probed towards the depths of the river.

Instantly, a bizarre image appeared in his mind.

Ten thousand feet below, there was a mysterious bronze portal engraved with mottled dao patterns that flashed with a strange luster.

Next to the bronze portal, there was a stone pillar, along which wrapped a thick, crystalline, fiery red chain.

The other end of the chain was bound to a statue of a ferocious beast.

The life-like statue had the shape of a flood-dragon, overtaking the riverbed like a mountain.

As soon as Lin Xun’s spirit sense came into contact with the stone statue, he immediately felt a sharp chill in his heart. He stiffened under an inexplicable sense of oppression and fear.

Rumble!

Almost at the same time, the stone statue looked like it was about to come to life as it emitted a churning, terrifying, ferocious aura that caused the river to erupt.

However, before this ferocious aura could spread, it was contained by the fiery red chain.

The magnificent crystal chains flowed with mysterious symbols as it tightly suppressed the ferocious aura around the statue.

Lin Xun was astounded.

A bronze portal under the river, a stone statue of a ferocious beast bound by mysterious chains.

What’s hiding inside that portal?

Is the beast chained here and forced to guard the portal?

After pondering for a moment, Lin Xun decided to leave.

This place felt too dangerous and bizarre, it was simply not something that the current him could explore. If he ventured into it unprepared, accidents might happen and take his life.

“I didn’t think that there was such a treacherous place in this Supreme Realm. Perhaps I can explore it after I step into the King stage.”

Lin Xun had a vague premonition that something was hidden within that bronze portal!

On the way, a large black bird sneakily approached with a black pot in its claws. It soundlessly came behind Lin Xun, lifting the pot and aiming at his head when–

Lin Xun suddenly turned around.

Whoosh!

The raised black pot spun in the air and snapped onto the back of the big black bird, who then raised its head with a dry cough and said without shame, “Ha, brother, we meet again.”

Lin Xun wore a spurious smile. “So it’s you. You still like to carry around a black pot, huh?”

Carry a black pot…

The big black bird froze for a second, then laughed awkwardly. Its eyes swirled around as it said, “Brother, I still have something to do, so I’ll take my leave.”

Before the sentence even finished, the bird flapped its wings and flew off at an incredible speed.

“Wait right there, Blackie!”

Lin Xun took to the air almost right at the same time with the Hornless Ice Dragon Step operating to its limit. He raised his hand and chopped out a gush of qi.

The black bird was not simple!

Back then, in the crumbling ancient temple under the whirlpool of the Boundary River, it had taken the shape of a black phoenix with feathers as dark as eternal night adorned with strands of mysterious Buddha light.

It had been a Buddha embryo sleeping in an altar-cabinet, and was later awakened with a secret method by Mu Zheng, one of the eighteen sons of the Earth Treasury Temple.

According to Mu Zheng, this big black bird was a unique Buddha embryo that had never existed before and was most likely left behind by Saint Monk Duji!

Lin Xun remembered clearly when this overbearing big black bird had only swung its pot a few times to knock Mu Zheng unconscious, and he was a supreme figure of the Earth Treasury Temple.

Moreover, this riffraff of a bird was extremely cunning and sinister with sneak attacks being its favorite. Just now, if Lin Xun hadn’t noticed it in advance, he would have been smashed on the back of his head!

Boom!

The distant bird shook its wings, conjuring an eerie, black Buddha fire that nullified Lin Xun’s strike.

“This lord convinces people with virtue and doesn’t like to get physical, but if you attack again, don’t blame this lord for teaching you a lesson!” the bird threatened.

“I won’t attack as long as you stay.” Lin Xun smiled.

They had the conversation while continuing with the high-speed flying and chasing in the air.

“Damn brat, you robbed me of the fortune left behind by old man Duji, and I was already magnanimous enough to let you off. What else do you want?” said the bird impatiently.

Lin Xun replied seriously, “That’s exactly why I feel the need to talk about it. I may even be able to return the fortune to you.”

At the same time, a dried-up piece of bodhi wood appeared in his hand. Within the wood was an extremely terrifying and supreme golden-colored power that was sealed.

He speculated that as the long-time resident of the altar-cabinet in an ancient Buddhist temple, this big black bird was bound to know some secrets that outsiders didn’t.

“Return it to me?” The big black bird was dumbfounded before it burst out laughing like a maniac. “This fortune involves the forbidden dao, so I can’t care less about it. I don’t want to drop dead like old man Duji.”

And then, it added with an expression of schadenfreude, “Lil’ bro, I advise you to be very careful. The eighteen sons of the Earth Treasury Temple and the ‘Ancient Buddha Son’ that has only come out from his ancient hibernation have all entered the Supreme Realm, and you are someone they consider to be the number one heretic!”

With that, the bird flew away at an even faster speed than before, almost like teleporting away as it disappeared into the horizon.

Lin Xun stopped, knowing that it was impossible to catch up.

Earth Treasury Temple’s heir?

The number one heretic?

Lin Xun raised his brow. He was not scared, only a little puzzled on what the bird meant by what it said.

Was it because he had obtained the Great Treasury Silent Scripture left behind by Saint Monk Duji and Black Phoenix Saint Queen that he was targeted by the Earth Treasury Temple?

And who was the Ancient Buddha Son?
