Chapter 1485 Focus of the Entire World

The ship zipped through the sky at an incredible speed.

Lin Xun sat there with his eyes closed as he recalled his experiences over the past month.

In this moment, Lin Xun was closer than ever to understanding what it meant to become a supreme Saint expert.

He walked an unprecedented path that was different from others. Hence, he could only rely on himself to pave it step by step. Even someone like Mister Shen was unable to guide him.

"At my current state of mind and cultivation, I should be able to at least put up a fight against those at the Saint stage," Lin Xun evaluated.

This judgment came from his accurate understanding of his strength and his absolute confidence in his innate talent.

To be frank, Lin Xun wasn’t that interested in the fight, but he admittedly couldn't stand the arrogance of these foreign domain enemies.

Numerous cultivators were chatting excitedly in the ship hall. Most of them discussed topics related to the battle between Lin Xun and Lang Qianheng.

From their conversations, Lin Xun learned that the Omega Sword Sect had no choice but to give in and announce that they would not obstruct him.

This made him finally understand that even the Omega Sword Sect didn’t dare to fully go against the entire world.

That was enough.

On account of this, Lin Xun decided he would not be overly ruthless even if he had to fight against the Omega Sword Sect in the future.

While he was thinking about this, a clear voice suddenly sounded from the side, "Young Master, I’m called Wei Lingke. Are you also planning to watch the battle?"

Lin Xun opened his eyes and saw the beautiful woman next to him smile as she looked over. Her long legs were folded in a cross-legged position, and her straight waist made her chest stick out, creating a magnificent sight. The fair skin of her exposed collarbone was also a treat for the eyes.

"Yes." Lin Xun nodded and retracted his gaze.

Wei Lingke's smile turned slightly rigid in the face of Lin Xun’s somewhat cold response.

However, she was cheerful by nature and didn’t mind it. Instead, she leaned over and whispered into his ear, "Young Master, I can tell at a glance that you're not simple, but I won't tell anyone."

She playfully winked at Lin Xun as the fragrant smell of her body wafted toward him.

Opposite them, the jade-robed youth, who was already a little unhappy that Lin Xun was sitting beside Wei Lingke, was unable to hold back any longer at the sight of this scene. "Lingke!"

"What? Do I need your permission to talk as well?"

Wei Lingke rolled her eyes and angrily said, "Ran Xing, mind your own business. You’d best not stick your nose into my affairs."

The jade-robed young man's expression instantly stiffened, clearly feeling embarrassed. He didn’t speak any further but glared at Lin Xun with even more hostility as if he were an eyesore.

This roughly gave Lin Xun an idea of the relationship between the two. It was likely that the man one-sidedly liked the woman while the latter had no interest in the former.

Wei Lingke ignored the jade-robed youth and looked at Lin Xun with interest. "Young Master, who do you think has a better chance of winning the duel? "

Lin Xun casually asked in response, "Who do you hope to win?"

"The great Demon God Lin, of course."

Wei Lingke answered without any hesitation whatsoever. "I can't wait for him to pummel Lang Qianheng into the ground. You know what, I’m actually going to Baiyujing to cheer for the great Demon God Lin!"Lin Xun smiled. It felt a little strange to be talked about like this by someone in a conversation with him.

Wei Lingke frowned and worriedly said, "However, feelings are ultimately just feelings after all. I'm still worried about what to do if he loses."

Lin Xun said, "We'll know when the time comes. It's unnecessary to worry now."

"Hmph, at the end of the day, your words are nothing but nonsense."

The jade-robed youth couldn't hold back any longer and ridiculed, "Shouldn’t you keep your mouth shut if you don’t know how to analyze the battle? Why make a fool out of yourself?"

Lin Xun glanced over but didn’t respond to the remark.

On the other hand, Wei Lingke was clearly annoyed. "Ran Xing, shut up!"

The angry beauty’s scary appearance immediately rendered the jade-robed youth speechless. Although his expression was ugly, he ultimately didn’t speak any further.

Wei Lingke lost interest in further conversation after the incident.

However, she did begin to feel increasingly disgusted when she compared Lin Xun to Ran Xing.

Ran Xing was a potential marriage partner introduced to her by her family. However, Wei Lingke wasn’t the least bit interested in him and felt annoyed by the entire affair. Thus, she had decided to go to Baiyujing to relax.

Who could have anticipated that Ran Xing would stick to her like glue and chase after her relentlessly? This naturally infuriated her, but she could only endure it due to the relationship between their families.

It would have been fine if she didn’t compare them but once she did, Lin Xun’s calm and composed demeanor immediately made Ran Xing appear all the more pathetic.

A day later, they arrived at Baiyujing. As Lin Xun was walking off the ship to leave, Wei Lingke caught up with a face full of hopefulness and asked,"Young Master, shall we go together?"

"We’ll definitely meet again."

Lin Xun waved and left with his hands behind his back.

He was trying to keep some distance because he knew that if the Omega Sword Sect saw Wei Lingke with him in Baiyujing, she might become implicated in unnecessary troubles in the future.

As she watched Lin Xun walk away, Wei Lingke couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment. She firmly believed that her judgment wasn’t wrong and Lin Xun was definitely no ordinary person.

She suddenly slapped her forehead and groaned in frustration."Oh no, I forgot to ask for his name…"

Ran Xing, who had been following her closely, could no longer hold back the jealousy and anger in his heart. He said, "Who does he think he is? He kept showing such a sour face the whole time and acted so arrogantly. He must really think that he’s someone special. Lingke, don’t be fooled by him."

"Hmph."

Wei Lingke rolled her eyes at him and couldn't be bothered to argue, feeling that Ran Xing was simply far inferior to Lin Xun in terms of conduct and speech.

……

The day of the appointed battle quickly approached.

Baiyujing had long become the focal point of everyone’s attention with countless experts arriving daily from all directions.

Among them were supreme heaven prides from ancient orthodoxies, several old monsters, and even traces of a few Saint experts.

As for ordinary experts, it was impossible to count them all.

In a mere month, the cultivator population in Baiyujing had skyrocketed to an unimaginable and unprecedented number.

People from famous sects would arrive every day, creating a daily scene of countless lights streaking across the sky that was a rather magnificent sight to behold.

After all, it was building up to be a heart-stirring battle the likes of which had never occurred before.On one side was an unrivaled supreme path expert from a foreign domain. On the other, was Lin Xun, who was considered a leader-like figure among the younger-generation supreme path experts of the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

One could say that nearly every supreme path expert in the Ancient Wasteland Domain had gathered to watch this very battle!

The Omega Sword Sect was also extremely nervous due to the event.

With so many old monsters and sects gathered here, there was a big risk of Baiyujing being turned upside down if any incident occurred.

As such, the Omega Sword Sect had no choice but to begrudgingly dispatch manpower to help maintain order.

The Spirit Tempering Tower was especially important, and several measures were deployed around it. Even experts from powerhouse sects were restricted from approaching if their status didn’t meet the mark, let alone ordinary cultivators.

"There are way too many people!"

Wei Lingke’s eyes widened in shock.

She had specially set off before dawn, thinking that would allow her to grab a good spot near the Spirit Tempering Tower.

Who could have expected the place to already be so crowded when she arrived?

A man smilingly said from the side, "Miss, we've been queuing here for days. You should be content with what you have."

An expert from the Blue Goat Clan chirped in as he shook his head, "It’s not just the humans. There are also many experts from other races."

Wei Lingke rolled her eyes. She considered trying to squeeze into the crowd but ultimately gave up on the idea. There were just too many people. All she could see was a sea of heads everywhere she looked.

"Sigh, I wonder if that young master is here."

Wei Lingke sighed deeply. She wanted to meet Lin Xun again but was starting to lose hope due to the unexpected scale of the crowd.

She was also sighing because Ran Xing had closely stuck to her ever since they arrived in Baiyujing, and she couldn’t get rid of him no matter how hard she tried.

Presently, Ran Xing's expression was as black as the bottom of a pot as jealousy burned in his heart. He swore that he would definitely teach that guy a lesson if he dared to show up!

An uproar suddenly spread amidst the crowd as it parted like a wave, creating a wide path.

Soon after, a group of people arrived one after another. Every member gave off a powerful and terrifying aura.

The originally noisy atmosphere turned strangely quiet in the wake of their arrival.

Countless gazes looked at them from various directions, filled with varying degrees of curiosity, awe, respect, and excitement.

"What a grand line-up!"

Wei Lingke's eyes glowed. "I wonder if I can follow them to get closer to the Spirit Tempering Tower."

A cultivator beside her cautioned, "Miss, please watch your tongue. Many experts from the Omega Sword Sect are stationed in the vicinity of the Spirit Tempering Tower and whoever dares to barge in without permission will face the consequences."

Wei Lingke asked, "Who are they? Why is everyone making way for them?"

She was still a little reluctant to give up on her plan.

"They are the heaven prides who have attained the supreme path in the Ancient Wasteland Domain."

"The one at the front is Imperial Son Shaohao, the second one is Fairy Ruowu of the Vermilion Bird Clan, followed by Yuan Fatian, Little Golden Winged Dapeng King, Ye Mohe, Mi Hengzhen, Wang Xuanyu, Ji Xingyao…"

The string of names sounded in her ears like thunder and stunned her.

They were legendary individuals that she had naturally heard of before. However, it was her first time seeing them in person.

Wei Lingku mumbled in shock, "No wonder they're so impressive. It's them."

"Hehe, the most awesome one is Demon God Lin. He’s the sole reason why this battle has attracted the attention of so many supreme path experts and the entire world!"

The face of the cultivator next to her had become almost feverish with adoration. "It’s hard to believe that a mere individual can possess such influence. Who in the entire world can compare to him?"

Wei Lingke revealed a bitter expression as she sighed. "This spot is too far away. How can I cheer for Demon God Lin unless I get closer?"
