Chapter 1838: To be Imprisoned for Ten Thousand Years

Faced with it, any other cultivator in the same generation would probably be powerless and end up being pierced by thousands of swords, receiving a quick death.

Lin Xun, however, seemed to be oblivious to his predicament as he walked along the clean and spacious streets toward the city tower.

His manner was leisurely.

The sword qi issued whistling sounds that tore the eardrums as they cut through the void and shot at him from all directions. They were as dense as water, as violent as a raging sea, and covered the sky and the earth.

But when they were only a hundred feet away from Lin Xun, they were all dissolved inch by inch.

The millions of sword qi seemed to be snow at this moment, soundlessly melting away. They made Lin Xun look like he was immune to all laws.

He kept strolling forward like this among the heavy rain of incoming sword qi.

No matter how fierce their momentum was, none of them could get closer than a hundred feet to him!

In just the blink of an eye, Lin Xun was already approaching the lofty city tower.

He looked up at the majestic giant sitting above the tower. The latter was shrouded in a boundless sword intent, just like a legendary god of the sword dao.

This is Emperor Bai, the legend who used his sword to realize and build his Emperor Dao?

Lin Xun then withdrew his gaze, feeling a little disappointed.

This silhouette was merely an aura that was capable of intimidating a cultivator’s mind. It did not have the true might of an Emperor.

In short, it was an image that had the air of a Great Emperor.

Even so, to be able to incorporate the aura of a primeval Great Emperor into one’s Great Dao Field was already considered a masterpiece.

Meanwhile, Jintian Xuanyue’s expression lost its calm for the first time ever. Her pupils shrunk, and her mind rippled.

She never could have expected that there would be someone in this world who could walk freely in her White Emperor City!

Did this mean that the other party’s mastery over Great Dao Field power was far above hers?

How could this be possible?

Jintian Xuanyue had always been proud and conceited. She had absolute confidence in her own strength and had never suffered such a setback growing up.

Therefore, what was happening caused her state of mind to shake!

Seeing Lin Xun approaching the city tower, she sharply inhaled and utilized her strongest move.

“My dao is like a city, indestructible!

“My city is like a boundary, dividing life and death with the sword!”

Clang!

The White Emperor Sword Seal above the tower abruptly transformed into a sword. It was two feet three inches long, four fingers wide, and as shiny and clear as snow.

RUMBLE!

Countless torrents of sword qi converged from all around and merged into this sword, enhancing it into a great sun with a blinding glow and threatening aura.

The sword intent it emanated permeated the entire White Emperor City.

Lin Xun stopped in his tracks and finally revealed a look of gravity as he could feel the pressure from it beating against his face.

“Slash!”

Hovering above the city tower, the sword seemed to have drained all the power from the city before it slashed down slowly yet with an omnipresent might.

It stretched across the sky and covered the whole city, impossible to evade!

“This sword is worthy of making me use my full strength.” Lin Xun took a deep breath. In the ten-foot diameter around him, the prototype of a Great Dao Field emerged.

It was like a furnace but not a furnace, like an abyss but not an abyss.

It was obscure, unfathomable, and inexplicable!

Booom!

In this instant, Lin Xun seemed to have become a black hole. The nearby buildings, streets, the soil under his feet, and the starry sky above his head all cracked and shattered as if they were being pulled by a terrifying force.

When that sword slashed down, the whole city had already turned into an abyss as deep as the great void.

Just how striking and terrifying was this sword?

Yet, it had fallen into the abyss without making a sound, swallowed up without leaving a trace…

White Emperor City burst into pieces.

The top of Guest Welcome Mountain was drowned in blooming radiance and thunderous rumbles that were turbulent and chaotic.

The otherworldly goddess Jintian Xuanyue looked deathly pale, with the only color belonging to a streak of red blood at the corner of her lips. Her whole body was trembling slightly.

Disbelief filled her beautiful eyes and had her rooted on the spot.

The city she had built after thirty years of studying and perceiving was destroyed just like that…

The whole region sank into silence as shock took over Guest Welcome Mountain.

Jintian Xuanyue was an outstanding and powerful goddess, and one couldn’t even imagine how marvelous her White Emperor City was. Yet, it had failed to trap and kill Yu Xuan!

No one had expected this!

The old woman, for once, zoned out and thought to herself: This man cannot be a nameless expert. I wonder which lineage he comes from.

Meanwhile, the hemp-clothed youth gasped, mouth agape as he was similarly shocked and awestruck.

At the foot of the mountain, Old Monk Dukong opened and closed his eyes, revealing the intimidating light surging them. The heretic’s strength is completely different from when he was in the Kunlun Dominion.

On the mountainside, the cloth-robed old man had entered a trance with a frown on his face.

Jintian Xuanyue was the pride of the Jintian Clan’s younger generation and he had regarded her very highly. He had thought that after her breakthrough and condensation of the White Emperor City sword field, she would easily be able to suppress the opponent.

Who could have thought of this result?

In front of the courtyard, Lin Xun stood in the air, looking spotless and transcendent as hazy blue light streamed around him.

When everyone looked at him now, their mindset and thoughts were completely different from before.

Is such a powerful supreme character really from the Imperial Yu Clan?

“How about you guys go together?” suggested Lin Xun, breaking the silence. He was looking at Jintian Xuanyue and Wuming without a fluctuation in his expression.

Wuming was seething with battle intent.

Jintian Xuanyue, on the other hand, took a deep breath and said with an indifferent expression, “Defeat is defeat. I won’t stoop so low as to band up with others just to win.”

She had her own pride!

Lin Xun smiled and didn’t try to force it.

In fact, there was no need for this battle to even occur at all. After all, those old monsters would never sit still and watch him kill Wuming or Jintian Xuanyue.

As if to fulfill Lin Xun’s speculation, a gentle voice rang out in the area, “Xuanyue, you have performed well. Being a true expert is not being undefeatable but whether or not one can get back up after a defeat.”

Accompanying the voice, the cloth-robed old man appeared out of thin air.

“Greetings, Ancestor.” Complex emotions flashed in Jintian Xuanyue’s eyes.

She knew that when the old ancestor appeared, all of this would come to an end, and the man who destroyed her White Emperor City…was destined to pay the price for it.

As Jintian Qi had said, the face of the Jintian Clan could not be lost!

Everyone watched in utter silence.

The countless onlookers felt as though they were about to suffocate. Their spirit senses and sights were also cut off, and they could no longer see what was happening in the field.

However, they knew that Sword Emperor Brave Gale was about to strike in person!

“I’m afraid that after tonight, we won’t be able to see this man called Yu Xuan again…” Many people inwardly sighed, feeling pity for Lin Xun.

It was undoubtedly a pity that such a supreme character capable of defeating Jintian Xuanyue would die prematurely before he could reach the Emperor Stage.

The hemp-clothed youth’s heart tightened, and he couldn’t help but turn to the old woman beside him.

The latter also lamented this in her heart, but still shook her head.

In this storm, they were merely passers-by and could not afford to get involved!

She murmured, “Perhaps, this incident will let the young master know that even the most heaven-defying geniuses and dazzling heaven prides can fall before they can grow…”

The hemp-clothed youth tightly clenched his fists, his face was terrifyingly calm as he expressed his feelings by stretching every word, “Granny, this…makes my heart ache!”

He did not ask the old woman to act.

He was really upset, really frustrated. It was like a block was being stuffed in his chest.

“Hitting the little ones invites their seniors. I knew it would be like this,” Lin Xun sneered, not feeling at all panicked in this oppressive atmosphere.

Standing in the distance, quasi-Emperor Liang Chuan stiffened, his heart flooded with fear upon the appearance of the cloth-robed old man.

He hadn’t even dared to think that Lin Xun, who was only a supreme Saint King, would dare to say such words to the face of a mighty Emperor at a time like this!

He couldn’t help but think bitterly that perhaps…he had really gotten too old…

“The Ancient Nebula Road has always been brutal. No matter how talented you are, in front of absolute power, you are nothing more than an ant,” said the cloth-robed old man indifferently, “I will not kill you, but a punishment is required for your sin. Thus, you shall be imprisoned for ten thousand years.”

Ten thousand years of imprisonment!

This was simply more cruel to Lin Xun than killing him directly.

When seeking the great dao, one misstep led to all missteps. On the surface, the price to pay for this was time, but in reality, it was the opportunities that one could have found to rise on the path of cultivation!

For example, had Lin Xun been imprisoned in the past, how could he have traveled to the Supreme Realm, thus gaining the opportunity to proceed to the Nine Domains Battlefield?

How could he have gone to the Kunlun Dominion afterward?

Without entering the Supreme Realm, he wouldn’t have been able to set foot on the supreme path.

Without entering the Nine Domains Battlefield, he wouldn’t have been able to break into the Supreme Saint Stage.

Without entering the Kunlun Dominion, how could he possibly have obtained the teachings left by the Master of Fangchun Mountain?

From this, one could imagine how many similar opportunities Lin Xun would miss out on during ten thousand years of imprisonment!

This kind of punishment was simply merciless!

Even Lin Xun couldn’t help but feel a fury rising in his heart. He looked at the cloth-robed old man. “It seems that I still don’t have enough weight. I showed mercy by letting those animals get away, only to receive this kind of retaliation in return.”

He then laughed to himself, his eyes were so dark that they were terrifying, and said in a low voice, “I was to blame for taking my chances. Had I known this, I should have killed them all…”

The cloth-robed old man frowned, but before he could say something, a withered old monk appeared out of nowhere. It was precisely Dukong of Earth Treasury Realm.

“Fellow Daoist, why don’t you leave this man to my Earth Treasury Realm in exchange for a favor from us?” said Dukong hoarsely.

Another Emperor!

And he is also here for Yu Xuan!

Liang Chuan was quivering. His legs went soft, and he was drenched in cold sweat.

The pressure in the atmosphere also climbed to the peak at this moment.

Jintian Xuanyue, Wuming, and the others all stood in silence. Regardless of what would happen next, they were certain that Lin Xun was already doomed.

In the courtyard, the hemp-clothed youth pursed his lips as he stared intently at this scene. What he had witnessed today had burned into his mind and deeply impacted his outlook. His chest felt so stifled that it was about to explode.

He even put himself in Lin Xun’s shoes, thinking that if he didn’t have Granny by his side, would his only outcome be death?

The old woman couldn’t bear to see him like this, and she began to hesitate.
