Chapter 1049: Sweeping Away All Enemies
The Coiling Dragon Tablet!
It represented the amount of great dao luck obtained by a heaven pride.
If the mountain climbing section was difficult, the mountain guarding phase would be even more challenging.
Upon stepping foot on the altar, the defender could be challenged by the other heaven prides at any time.
Moreover, it wasn’t just a single challenge but continuous battling until the time limit of one incense stick was reached!
Lin Xun carefully observed the Coiling Dragon Tablet for a long time as his accumulated killing intent, fighting spirit, anger...and various other emotions blended together in his heart, causing his desire for battle to bubble vigorously!
This was merely the Little Giants List.
Since he was here, there was only one goal he sought to achieve — First!
Traditionally, the top ranker on the Little Giants List Competition would not only obtain more great dao luck, but also the bonus reward of an entry into the Immortal Secret Realm! action
The Immortal Secret Realm had a very simple function: the ability to alter the Laws of time!
An entire year inside was equivalent to a single day in the outside world. Such heaven-defying power was beyond even the almighty Saint experts!
It was because the Laws of time were the most supreme in all of the heavens. They were far too transcendent and inconceivable that even Saint experts could only sigh helplessly before them.
To Lin Xun, time was undoubtedly the resource he needed the most urgently.
Because he realized that the gap between him and Yun Qingbai was time!
Endless determination spread from the calmness between Lin Xun’s brows as he inwardly declared, "First place will be mine!"
He turned his gaze to the path below.
He could already see figures swiftly approaching the peak like a long snake in the distance.
The entire fifty-foot-wide golden path was filled with people who moved with surprising coordination. There was zero sign of any conflict or fighting.
All of them had allied together, and their sole, prime target was Lin Xun!
He silently stood there and waited with his hands behind his back as his moon-white clothes fluttered in the wind. The backdrop of the nearby swirling mists made him appear untouchable and transcendent.
His deep black eyes were cold and filled with indifference.
"Demon God Lin, we’ll give you a chance to voluntarily jump off the mountain. If you do, we won't make things difficult for you and you’ll save yourself the physical pain and suffering."
The Heaven Axis Holy Land disciples arrived. They looked at Lin Xun, who stood alone on the altar, with sinister and mocking expressions.
Lin Xun nonchalantly said, "Did you guys already forget how I crippled Xue Qianhen and Zhang Zheng?"
The other party's faces instantly darkened and turned incomparably ugly.
"Jump? Won’t that be letting him off too lightly? Although it’s impossible to kill him for real on the Immortal Sacred Mountain, I would still love to carve his flesh off inch by inch!"
Moments later, the Omega Sword Sect disciples also arrived. The speaker was Stunning Fairy Sword Kong Ling, who was a descendant of the Five-Colored Peacock Clan. Dressed in a fiery-red dress, her eyes burned with clear hatred.
Lin Xun had taken Yun Qingbai's Night Flower Sword from her, and she was still very furious and ashamed of the incident.
"To think someone I already defeated can still be so noisy. I’ll strip off all of your feathers later!" Lin Xun smirked. He displayed a confident expression as if none of them could pose any threat to him. "You’re asking for death!" Flames spouted from Kong Ling’s eyes.
"Demon God Lin, I’m sure you can see what kind of situation you’re in. If you don't want to experience an ugly defeat, you should hurry up and get off the altar!"
"Get off!"
By this juncture, the Spirit Treasure Holy Land disciples, the Longevity Land disciples, the Azure Sea Sect disciples, the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan disciples, and a host of other heaven prides had also arrived.
They were gathered together in a large crowd as they pointed and shouted at Lin Xun with expressions either filled with hatred or murderous impulses.
"Think there’s nothing to fear because you guys have the numbers? I can’t believe that people like you guys are ancient orthodoxy disciples. How disgraceful!"
Lin Xun's deep black eyes were ice-cold as his voice loudly rang out like a bell, "I have no intention of bickering with you people. Anyone who’s unhappy can go ahead and come at me!"
He looked down upon the crowd. Although his tone was calm, his eyes seemed to naturally look down upon the world as his voice resounded across the ninth peak and rippled the clouds!
At the foot of the mountain, the Windspeaker Clan experts’ eyes brightened as they swiftly began to record this scene with their long-ready golden news tree leaves.
On the peak, the crowd was furious, and their expressions turned stormy. They had thought that Demon God Lin would at least be a little afraid and never imagined that he would still be so fearless and daring!
One of the experts sneered with a disdainful expression, "Heh, what a foolish and crazy person. How dare a lone individual like you talk so big?"
Boom!
On the altar, Lin Xun’s hand pressed down on the air, causing a palm seal to appear in the sky.
The blindingly bright palm seal dazzled the crowd as it rose like a mighty sun while also possessing matchless speed.
"AHH—" the expert screamed as he summoned a treasure to block the attack while desperately taking evasive maneuvers. However, his actions were fruitless.
He was a heaven pride with perfect Cyclic Derivation cultivation and was also a true disciple of an ancient orthodoxy. However, he was still crushed by the palm seal like a powerless straw dummy.
Pop!
He was popped open like a watermelon, splattering blood everywhere.
Lin Xun's attack could definitely be described as overbearing, swift, and ferocious. After all, it had destroyed an ancient orthodoxy heaven pride in the blink of an eye!
The bloody scene stunned everyone.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun was still standing on the altar with his clothes fluttering around him and watching them with cold, black eyes. It was as if he had never moved.
The crowd's expressions fluctuated uncertainly between shock, anger, and fear.
"Everyone, join me in killing this punk!"
Upon seeing that Lin Xun had taken the initiative and shaken the group’s morale, one of the Heaven Axis Holy Land disciples didn’t hesitate to step forward.
It was a barefooted young man dressed in hemp garments. Before his words faded, he had already risen up into the air with a jade ruler that flashed like blue lightning that could illuminate eternity.
The jade ruler's aura was formidable and fierce. It was clearly a terrifying Supreme King Weapon that wasn’t restricted by the Immortal Sacred Mountain’s Laws.
Clang!
Kong Ling of the Omega Sword Sect also attacked. She brandished the Stunning Fairy Sword as it spewed a thousand feet of sword qi that was bright as snow.
The hemp-clothed youngster and Kong Ling were both supreme path experts and fully displayed their unrivaled strength at this moment.
At the sight of this, the other experts cast aside their hesitation and attacked Lin Xun from all directions!
This wasn’t a martial arena that was governed by rules or fairness. Anyone who stood on the altar would have to face the fate of being surrounded and ganged up upon.
Clang!
Endless clear light rose around Lin Xun like a surging sea and blocked the jade ruler. At the same time, a Bi’an Stamp was formed. It pulsed with overwhelming power and seemed to have a life of its own as it rushed forth to meet the snow-bright sword qi.
"Kill!"
The battle completely kicked off at this moment.
Heaven prides from different ancient orthodoxies attacked the altar with unstoppable and astonishing momentum.
However, Lin Xun didn’t step back and instead faced them all head-on.
Since entering the Immortal Forbidden Land, he had been provoked and threatened at every turn. It felt as if everyone wanted a piece of him.
After climbing to the peak, the ancient orthodoxy disciples were now shamelessly allying in order to deal with him!
How could Lin Xun possibly tolerate this?
If he didn’t utterly crush these clowns, how could he continue seeking the dao in the future?
Like Zhao Jingxuan had predicted, Lin Xun was determined to commit a huge slaughter to release all of his pent-up rage!
"Kill!"
Electricity seemed to blossom in Lin Xun's cold eyes as he glowed brightly like a sun illuminating the mountains and rivers.
Rumble!
The Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art ran rampant, unleashing bursts of fist-force that felt like a demon god smashing the sky.
With a bang, Kong Ling's Stunning Fairy Sword was knocked away. The sword seemed to wail in agony while she nearly tumbled off the altar due to the impact.
On the other side, the hemp-clothed youngster's jade ruler was firmly stuck under Lin Xun's foot, unable to escape no matter how much he struggled.
Plop plop plop!
With each blast of horrifying heaven shaking fist-force, the approaching heaven prides exploded like fireworks one after another. Blood sprayed everywhere, dyeing the air a glaring red.
An uproar arose at the foot of the mountain.
After the start of the Little Giants List Competition, the heaven prides had left to climb the mountain, leaving behind their older seniors, servants, and attendants.
These people’s expressions drastically changed, unable to hide their shock.
Every ancient orthodoxy disciple was a top-tier existence among their generation and resembled proud suns that ruled the skies. How terrifying would such a force be when they were focused on attacking a single individual?
Despite this, Lin Xun withstood their combined assault with utmost composure. Moreover, he was steamrolling over all resistance like an unstoppable demon god!
"Die!"
Lin Xun spread his fingers as a burning river of stars unfurled from his hand with an astonishingly explosive force capable of incinerating the world.
Supreme-grade Dao Art, Combustion Star River!
Empowered by Dao Truth level dao power, the dao art made it feel as if burning stars were rapidly exploding on the altar.
The terrifying destructive power instantly swallowed more than a dozen heaven prides, causing them to scream in agony.
"How dare you?!" The hemp-clothed youngster was furious. His jade ruler shone brightly as it spluttered a tsunami of electricity.
"Scram!" Lin Xun didn’t even bother to turn his head. A Bixi phantasm emerged from his back and rammed into the tsunami of electricity.
The jade ruler was violently knocked away. The sound of bones snapping could be heard from the hemp-clothed youngster as blood poured from his mouth and nose.
Rumble!
Meanwhile, Lin Xun's fist-force roared like a dragon as it charged at a Longevity Land disciple. The indestructible fist-will seemed almost infinite as it clashed against enemies from every direction.
At the foot of the mountain, the servants’ and attendants’ hearts trembled at this scene. It was the first time most of them had seen Lin Xun in action, and they had originally believed that no matter how strong he was, he would be hard-pressed to survive when surrounded on all sides.
Who could have anticipated that Demon God Lin would be even stronger and more terrifying than described in the rumors?!
Although he was alone, his overwhelming might seemed to easily sweep away all his enemies on the altar as if he were an absolute overlord!
