Chapter 1871: Holy Imperial Apostle



In the blink of an eye, their esteemed guest from the Imperial Jintian Clan had gotten trapped within She Ling’s Great Dao Field and hadn’t been able to get out until now.

It was, without a doubt, extremely dangerous there!

A Great Dao Field was like a small world. In his own world, She Ling was the creator and the overlord who held all the rights of life and death over all beings. It was no longer a fair fight.

On the opposite side, the Phantasm Empyrean Island crowd had cheered up.

She Zi explained to them, “In order to build the Endless Road to Hell, Senior Brother She Ling honed his dao in the Gods and Demons Ancient Battlefield. He finally succeeded after ten years of tribulations in there with death constantly looming over him.

“When he coalesced his Great Dao Field, it triggered a heavenly phenomenon of evil spirits dancing and ghosts parading. As far as I’m concerned, that man is losing for sure now that he’s been trapped in there.”

She sounded nothing but definite.

Bi Yuanzi was unable to hide his smugness and raised his voice, “Brother Heng Xiao, looks like your little friend can’t help you any further. I’m afraid your sect is going to lose this fourth match.”

As soon as he dropped that remark—BOOM!

An earth-shattering noise drowned out his complacent voice.

Under the appalled gazes of the crowd, the Endless Road to Hell shattered as though it was hit by a hammer of an immortal giant.

The churning fog enveloping the field also dispersed.

Bang!

She Ling fell on the ground, his body bathed in blood.

Bi Yuanzi’s smile froze on his face, his eyes bulged out. What...what is going on?!

Beside him, the Phantasm Empyrean Island disciples also froze on the spot like a flock of bewildered geese.

The Endless Road to Hell that She Zi has held in such high regard was destroyed this easily?

The Xuanji elders were also astonished, but their surprise quickly turned into joy even though they were still finding it hard to believe it.

Their juniors all looked dumbfounded. So it’s possible to

break out from within a Great Dao Field?

Boom!

Without waiting for the crowd to react, an ancient and yellow-earth seal wrapped in piercing divine radiance ruthlessly crushed down upon She Ling.

“I admit defeat!” screamed the horrified man almost on instinct.

His intuition told him it was impossible for him to escape this strike, let alone block it.

Buzz!

The Seal of All Beings stopped dead just a foot away from She Ling’s head.

Even so, the terrifying power emanating from it weighed down on him. With a bang, he was ruthlessly pressed against the ground with broken bones while bleeding all over. The pain drew a muffled grunt out of his mouth.

At this moment, Lin Xun drifted out and raised his hand. The Seal of All Beings swiftly transformed into a small grain of sand and was put away by him.

She Ling was on the ground, so badly wounded that his breathing was feeble.

Lin Xun, on the other hand, looked immaculate and ethereal as his clothes fluttered radiating a calm. Not a strand of his hair was hurt, and his aura remained calm and mountain-like.

The contrast shook the whole audience!

Bi Yuanzi gawked with a livid expression. How…how can this be possible?!

The Phantasm Empyrean Island disciples were dispirited like eggplants in the cold. When they looked at Lin Xun, their eyes were filled with horror.

The powerful She Zi had been able to defeat Ji Qian and Yuan Mao one after another with ease, but this man Jin Duyi had suppressed her in a matter of moments.

When She Ling, who was even more powerful than She Zi, had entered the ring, everyone had held high hopes for him, thinking that it was impossible for him to lose.

Who would have thought that he would also be defeated!

Even his strongest move, his Great Dao Field, had been shattered completely, forcing him to willingly admit defeat!

This was simply too astonishing.

“Bi Yuanzi, were you getting ahead of yourself just now…?” Heng Xiao was beaming as a refreshing wave of satisfaction ran through him.

The other Xuanji experts burst into laughter. Having been awed by Lin Xun’s performance, their hearts were filled with amazement and relief.

Meanwhile, the juniors were feeling complicated. Although they were in the same stage as Jin Duyi, they could now determine that the gap between them and him was like a world of difference!

“The Imperial Jintian Clan can never have a descendant like you! Who exactly are you?” questioned She Ling, who lay on the ground with a gloomy expression and eyes full of resentment.

“My name is Jin Duyi. Even an idiot knows that I’m not a member of the Jintian Clan,” said Lin Xun nonchalantly.

“Jin Duyi…” mumbled She Ling.

At this instant, Lin Xun had a strong urge to kill the other party. He was now certain that She Ling came from Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and was not some Phantasm Empyrean Island disciple.

In the end, however, he still held back that urge.

This was Xuanji Dao Sect after all. It was already inappropriate for him, an outsider, to interfere in such a competition. If he killed an opponent, not only would he earn the enmity of Phantasm Empyrean Island, but he also might implicate Xuanji Dao Sect.

Thinking so, Lin Xun discreetly transmitted, “You don’t know who I am, but I know who you are. You’d best not appear before me ever again.”

She Ling stiffened, then sneered. He crawled back up on his feet with great difficulty and left the arena.

At that moment, Jintian Xuanyue got up and presented a cup of freshly brewed aeth tea with a smile. “Young Master, come have some tea.”

Lin Xun smiled and also left the ring. After accepting the teacup and draining it in one go, he felt both his mind and body relax.

He inwardly praised that Jintian Xuanyue’s tea brewing skill had improved again.

Seeing them like this, everyone had mixed feelings. These two obviously aren’t taking this competition seriously at all…

The fourth match came to an end just like that.

Since Xuanji Dao Sect and Phantasm Empyrean Island had each won two matches, they were currently at a tie.

The final winner was to be decided with the fifth match.

Suddenly, Bi Yuanzi said, ‘‘Heng Xiao, how about we stop the competition here? After all, even if our side loses the fifth match, it will be at the hands of this little friend who has nothing to do with your Xuanji Dao Sect.”

From his somber voice, it was clear that he was unwilling to accept this outcome.

Heng Xiao frowned. He pondered for a moment and said, “Well, forget it then. The competition ends here.”

A draw was a good enough result.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to win, but in their eyes, Lin Xun was ultimately an outsider, so it wouldn’t mean much even if he won.

Bi Yuanzi clearly heaved a long sigh of relief. Without hesitation, he bid his farewell.

Heng Xiao’s group naturally wouldn’t keep them.

However, as they were leaving, Bi Yuanzi suddenly turned to Lin Xun and transmitted, “Little friend, it’s never a good idea to stick your nose into other people’s business.”

His tone was calm but laced with vaguely discernable frost.

Lin Xun was unfazed as he transmitted back, “Then let me remind you also, beware of getting into trouble for choosing to be an accomplice to a villain.”

Bi Yuanzi was stunned, and his face faltered. Does this young man know something?

He breathed in deeply and said nothing more as he hurried away with his group.

Even after leaving Xuanji Dao Sect, Bi Yuanzi was still in a state of trance and uncertainty on the way back.

In the end, he couldn’t help but tell She Ling through transmission, “Emissary She Ling, I suspect that Jin Duyi noticed something about us.”

His attitude when facing She Ling was extremely humble, nothing like how a sect elder normally acted in front of a junior.

“So what if he did?” She Ling coldly responded with a dark expression, “Unless he wants to completely offend my Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, he would not dare to publicize this matter.”

Bi Yuanzi reluctantly smiled. “That would be best.”

She Ling cast him a scornful glance. “Rest assured. Since Phantasm Empyrean Island is cooperating with us, you will definitely shine in the upcoming Dao Debate of Cloud State.”

Bi Yuanzi took a deep breath and asked, “If I may be bold, who is your sect sending to the debate?”

She Ling fell silent for a moment before saying a name, “Wu Huang!”

Wu Huang, the final disciple of an Emperor elder in Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, was an unparalleled genius whose exquisite aptitude and strong foundation triumphed over the rest of his generation!

In his sect, Wu Huang also had a special identity—Holy Imperial Apostle!

She Ling still remembered what had happened a few years ago when Wu Huang, who had only been at the initial Supreme Saint-King Stage, had managed to assassinate a quasi-Emperor on his own. That feat had instantly shot him to fame!

To She Ling, Wu Huang was like a great sun. Under the latter’s light, he and the other Holy Apostles were nothing but dim stars.

Therefore, She Ling’s heart had palpitated when he had heard that there was more than one Holy Imperial Apostle like Wu Huang in Holy Illumination Ancient Sect!

As for exactly how many of them there were, he had no idea.

“Wu Huang…” Bi Yuanzi was dazed.

Despite being a quasi-Emperor, he was merely an elder of Phantasm Empyrean Island. How could someone like him possibly know about the inner workings of Holy Illumination Ancient Sect?

She Ling didn’t explain for him either, nor did he tell Bi Yuanzi that his sect had not only deployed their members to Cloud State but also to the other states of the Primordial Chaos World as well!

The reason was that the Dao Debate Assembly organized by the Great Six Courts this time had a significance far beyond that of those in the past. It was to the point that Holy Illumination Ancient Sect did not want to miss it.

As far as She Ling was informed, the other two dark giants, Earth Treasury Realm and Copper Sparrow House, would participate as well.

Moreover, like Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, they had already made their move.

Coming from the Ancient Nebula Underworld, their members had to change identities in order to take part in the Dao Debate Assembly.

For example, She Ling, She Zi, and the others in their group would participate as disciples of Phantasm Empyrean Island.

She Ling whispered, “The purpose of the competition with Xuanji Dao Sect is so you could see the strength of our people for yourself. Although Junior Sister She Zi and I were defeated by Jin Duyi, you should know that he’s not a disciple of Xuanji Dao Sect.

“Make no mistake, however, he will never be a match for Senior Brother Wu Huang! Even if Jin Duyi takes part in the Dao Debate of Cloud State and encounters him, he will definitely lose!”

Bi Yuanzi gasped.

Only now did he realize that this so-called Wu Huang had to be an extraordinary expert in Holy Illumination Ancient Sect.

Meanwhile, in Xuanji Dao Sect, Lin Xun and Jintian Xuanyue had been graciously invited to an ancient palace where they would receive a grand welcome from Heng Xiao and a group of high-ranking personnel.
