Chapter 1284 Clowns



In his mind, various wonderful insights emerged, all related to the Saint Treasure Tragic Death City.

The most mysterious part of the city was that it could guide the lingering remnants of ghosts and souls and free them from the world, thereby gaining the power of merit from heaven.

Merit!

Similar to fate, karma, and destiny, it was an exceptionally illusionary, almost non-existent, mysterious force.

In the eyes of buddhist cultivators, saving a life was more meritorious than building a seven-floor pagoda. In fact, it was a means of accumulating the power of merit.

For daoists, the power of merit was just like the blessings of the great dao, just more beneficial to their cultivation.

For example, alpha qi was a manifestation of merit power, and it was very beneficial to one’s cultivation, spirit, and state of mind.

Therefore, Tragic Death City, a Xiantian Saint Treasure that could accumulate merit power, was undoubtedly magical and mysterious.

It was a pity that Tragic Death City no longer existed and all that remained of it was its Xiantian source that turned into a Xiantian Clear Pearl.

In short, the Xiantian Clear Pearl was the core source power of Tragic Death City.

Buzz—

With this thought, Lin Xun began to refine the mysterious object.

One month, two months, three months…

Time quietly passed without him realizing.

Inside Stupa Tower, Toady and the big black bird were not just sitting around either. They had been studying and figuring out the secrets and mysteries of Three Thousand Stupa Tower.

After a long period of investigation, they both came to the same conclusion—

The tower had to contain great fortunes!

However, if they wanted to get their hands on them, they first needed an opportunity.

Now, they were determined to try various methods to seize this opportunity together.

……

It took Lin Xun half a year to refine the Xiantian Clear Pearl!

The length of time surprised even Lin Xun, but the benefits were fortunately astonishing, so much so that it took Lin Xun quite a while before he could settle his excited emotions.

The inside of the Xiantian Clear Pearl was sealed with almost infinite merit power!

During the refinement, the Xiantian Clear Pearl provided an endless source of alpha qi, which had a nourishing-like effect on his body, mind, and spirit.

This fact alone already made it on par with some of the world’s greatest cultivation treasures.

But its most amazing power had to be the fact that it had a natural restraining effect on the most powerful remnant spirits, souls, and apparitions!

If he could guide these ghostly beings and obtain merit power to store inside the Xiantian Clear Pearl then he could accelerate the transformation of this treasure!

He suspected that once a certain amount of merit power was accumulated, the Xiantian Clear Pearl would very likely re-transform into Tragic Death City.

“No wonder Senior Brother Xuan Kong specifically reminded me to not let others know about this item. It is indeed an incomparably rare treasure.

“It is both a cultivation treasure and a sacred object for obtaining merit. It trumps all other combat-type Saint Treasures… Although it is not in its complete form, as long as I don’t give up, there is hope that this treasure can be transformed into Tragic Death City again!”

Lin Xun drew a deep breath, suppressing his emotions and excitement.

Was it worth spending half a year to refine the Xiantian Clear Pearl?

Absolutely!

Owning this treasure meant that he had the most effective means to obtain merit power, which had amazing and immeasurable effects on cultivation.

“Lin Xun, you’re finally up. Every day for the past six months, some stupid trash has come to provoke you, clamoring for you to come out of the tower.” The big black bird flapped his wings and glided over. “If you don’t go out, they’re probably going to try and break in!”

“They’re looking for me?” Lin Xun raised his brows.

“Yes, ever since everyone heard about the grudge between you and Yun Qingbai, the outside of the tower has become a gathering place. In the past half a year, you don’t know how noisy it has been here.” The big black bird explained, “Especially the disciples from Omega Sword Sect. They came here a few months ago and have been waiting for you ever since.”

Lin Xun nodded with understanding. The situation was within his prediction.

“If they want to wait, then let them wait.” Lin Xun said leisurely, “I have set up a Dao Rune Forbidden Array outside the tower, they can come and break in if they are not afraid of dying.”

Boom!

Suddenly, violent vibrations sounded outside the tower like an earthquake.

Then, a burst of excited cheers followed.

“This damn array is almost destroyed. Everyone, work harder!”

“Hmph, Lin Xun is a coward. He has been hiding behind that formation for half a year. Let’s tear it down and see how he can hide then!”

Chaotic yelling began to seep into the tower.

A cold expression crossed Lin Xun’s face. The Dao Rune Forbidden Array he set up blocked out sound waves.

But sounds had managed to seep through, which indicated that this array had been badly damaged and was about to be breached.

The big black bird cackled gloatingly, “Hahaha, those unafraid of death are indeed coming in!”

Lin Xun was speechless.

He had only just said that they could come in if they were not afraid of death and this happened right away. It felt like a slap in the face.

“I’ll go take a look.”

Lin Xun turned around and left while killing intent surged around him.

……

Outside the tower, a group of Omega Sword Sect disciples were bombarding the Dao Rune Forbidden Array that protected the tower.

Pillars of light lashed down, roaring like thunder.

In the distance, Wen Zhongfeng, standing on a silver sword-shaped lotus platform, wore an indifferent expression. He was clad in a golden robe and exuded a sharp and fierce aura like a divine god.

In the Omega Sword Sect, the most dazzling person was no doubt Yun Qingbai, and few people knew Wen Zhongfeng\'s name.

But those who did knew that, compared to Yun Qingbai, Wen Zhongfeng might not be as famous, but his strength was absolutely terrifying. While not as terrifying or strong as Yun Qingbai, he was not far behind him.

Wen Zhongfeng was an ancient-era eccentric genius with both an amazing foundation and talent.

The reason he did not have a reputation that correlated with his ability was because Yun Qingbai completely overshadowed him. The world only knew about Yun Qingbai, but had no idea that there was a terrifying figure like Wen Zhongfeng in the Omega Sword Sect.

Several Omega Sword Sect disciples followed Wen Zhongfeng, making him look more extraordinary.

In the distance, countless eyes were watching closely.

In the past half a year, following the news about Lin Xun and Yun Qingbai, the tower had become like a vortex pulling people from all over the Upper Nine Realms.

The area surrounding the tower had become very lively.

Lin Xun had never shown his face in the past half a year, but that did not stop cultivators from all over the world coming to inquire information.

Of course, many cultivators had left impatiently, though more continued to come, turning the tower into a place of gathering storm.

Wen Zhongfeng and the other Omega Sword Sect disciples arrived two months ago.

Their goal was very simple. They couldn’t stand the slander against Yun Qingbai and wanted to kill Lin Xun to end all negativity the incident had on Omega Sword Sect.

They had waited a long time and even repeatedly demanded Lin Xun to show himself, but unfortunately they still had not got what they wished for.

This left the Omega Sword Sect disciples with a lot of pent-up anger and nowhere to vent it.

It was only in recent days that Wen Zhongfeng decided not to wait any longer and launched an attack—destroy the rune array, storm the tower and slaughter Lin Xun!

Today, they finally had hopes of breaking the formation!

“As soon as the array is destroyed, follow me into the tower to kill that coward Lin Xun,” Wen Zhongfeng commanded.

Everyone else nodded.

Half a year ago, when news came out that Yun Qingbai was being hunted by Lin Xun, they were furious and subconsciously did not believe it at all.

To them, Lin Xun was no match for Yun Qingbai.

Of course, now that they were facing Lin Xun, who had shaken the entire Upper Nine Realms, they would not let down their guards. Otherwise, they would not have waited outside the tower for two months.

But no matter how they clamored, insulted Lin Xun, and challenged him to a battle, he never showed up, and that only escalated their fury.

Does the mighty Demon God Lin not even dare to accept the challenge?

The news that came out half a year ago can’t be true then, right?

In truth, the experts paying close attention to the matter also had the same doubt.

Lin Xun had been hiding in Stupa Tower for half a year, accepting all sorts of insults and provocation. Was he be afraid?

Or perhaps, the news that spread throughout the world half a year ago was false. Otherwise, how would he still be hiding while being besieged?

It should be noted that Demon God Lin rose to fame for his courage. When had he ever been so cowardly as now?

“Once this array is destroyed, the truth will be revealed!”

Everyone stood in anticipation, because they could tell that the forbidden array in front of the tower was about to shatter!

Boom!

Suddenly, an ear-splitting rumble stung everyone’s ear.

A shower of light filled the sky and the shaky Dao Rune Forbidden Array was still standing, but the Omega Sword Sect disciples who besieged the tower all toppled backwards, crying out in alarm.

The scene immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

Everyone saw a tall and handsome silhouette walking out from the forbidden array.

His jet black hair draped over his shoulders, his eyes cold and unfathomable, and his aura was as transcendent as that of an immortal. Who else would it be but Lin Xun?

After hiding for half a year, he finally appeared in front of everyone!

There was a low commotion within the crowd.

However, everyone looked down on Lin Xun a little, because he only came out after being forced. If the array was not on the verge of being destroyed, he likely would still be hiding like a coward!

Wen Zhongfeng and other Omega Sword Sect disciples were taken aback at first before their faces lit up with wild joy. The guy who misled the public with his lies and used despicable means to slander Yun Qingbai has finally appeared!

Their gazes turned cold and murderous.

The anger accumulated in their hearts over the past months was stirred up. They were itching to act.

“Yun Qingbai didn’t come, but a group of clowns came instead. Stupid idiots are indeed unafraid of death.”

Amid the restless and tense atmosphere, Lin Xun leisurely strode out of the array. His voice was calm yet resounded throughout the area.
