Chapter 1009 Canglan Province
Chi!
Suddenly, golden flames emerged within Chu Beihai’s eyes. Like a flash of lightning, it tore through the darkness in the direction of the Illusion Forbidden Array not too far away.
Flame Golden Eye!
This was Chu Beihai’s innate talent, which allowed him to see through all illusions and into the truth.
But soon, he furrowed his brows. The fog within the Illusion Forbidden Array was so thick that even if he could see through it, it was still impossible to locate Lin Xun.
Could it be that he’s not in this array?
A chill struck Chu Beihai’s heart. The vast Sand Cloud City had been deserted. There was not a single living creature in it.
Moreover, he scanned the surroundings and saw no suitable place for Lin Xun to hide.
“Lin Xun, if you don’t show up now, don’t blame me for destroying this array with force!” Chu Beihai’s slender and tall body erupted with frightening power like a god descending upon the mortal world.
He was starting to lose his patience after being repeatedly ignored.
Boom!
As he swiftly brought out a short, purple battle ax, a splendid shower of purple light rained from the treasure. The magnificent spectacle was no doubt an indication of its unfathomable powers.
However, before Chu Beihai could make a move, a powerful voice resounded through heaven and earth, “Beihai, retreat, that boy is cunning. He once used a king-grade array to trap and kill Old Monster Moxi. Let me break this array!”
As the voice echoed, a mighty middle-aged figure emerged in the air. His figure seemed as tall and strong as a mountain, exuding the frightening majesty of a king. The surrounding clouds dissipated and the air whimpered in his presence.
It was an old monster of the King Stage!
“Thank you for your trouble, Master Xuan Wei.” Chu Beihai stepped aside, trembling inwardly.
After these days of hunting, he had come to realize that Demon God Lin was not only fearless and wild, but also scheming and cunning. It was hard to not worry whether there would be murderous traps concealed within the Illusion Forbidden Array.
Boom!
With a turn of his hand, Xuan Wei formed a skyful of light and transformed it into a giant hand that blotted out the sky. He fiercely launched it downwards.
Instantly, the Illusion Forbidden Array wailed and crumbled like paper, fading in a chaotic rain of light.
Both Xuan Wei and Chu Beihai were a little dumbfounded to see the array break so easily. But when they looked ahead, their faces immediately darkened.
A note was left in front of the ancient teleportation array that was covered by the Illusion Forbidden Array earlier. Written in elegant but strong strokes were: “I couldn’t bear to see you off so I will leave first. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely pay you a visit.”
Flames flickered cold in Chu Beihai’s eyes, and a dark cloud of gloom and frustration hovered in his chest. He almost coughed up blood.
“It’s a diversion...Damn Demon God Lin!” He paused at every word, his expression was ice-cold and terrifying, and his body released terrifying killing intent.
He had plotted for a long time before he came. He thought that he had made enough preparations and he could kill the opponent once and for all, but who would have thought that the opponent would use such a cunning tactic as pretending to set up a formation but had already fled?
When Chu Beihai remembered him talking to the array, thinking that Lin Xun was inside it, an uncontrollable sense of shame rose from his heart.
“That boy needs to be killed!” Xuan Wei’s face also became overcast. If word got out that he was tricked by a junior, he would be ashamed to death.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Meanwhile, terrifying figures loomed in the vicinity of the Sand Cloud City. Each one possessing the strength of the king stage!
However, their expressions dramatically changed when they saw the words left by Lin Xun.
We’ve been tricked!
They could only blame themselves for being too convinced that Lin Xun would leave via the ancient teleportation array.
“Mobilize all forces to find that boy. No matter what, we can’t let him escape from the Ancient Blue Province!” Xuan Wei commanded in a deep voice.
Despite the fact that there was such an order, everyone knew that it would be near impossible to stop Lin Xun from fleeing this time.
They originally had the Yin Yang Spirit Locking Mirror that could lock onto Lin Xun’s aura, but that treasure had fallen into Lin Xun’s hand after he captured Xue Qianhen and the others.
Additionally, Lin Xun could take on the appearance of different people using the Great Formless Art. It was no doubt going to be extremely difficult to capture him again.
“Argh!” Chu Beihai rushed forward and tore up the note left by Lin Xun.
“That boy left about five hours ago. I can roughly lock in on his aura. Maybe there is still a chance to catch up to him!” A thin old man in a black robe suddenly stepped forward.
The man was called Cheng Huaikong, a Life Death Stage King of Heaven Axis Holy Land who had made a name for himself years ago. He was a tyrannical existence that had survived the first longevity tribulation, earning himself an overlord-like status within the Ancient Blue Province.
Chu Beihai’s and the others’ eyes lit up.
He only left five hours ago?
That’s not too late!
……
Swoosh!
The Grand Universe Ark whizzed across the vast night sky like a silver rainbow, covering hundreds of miles in the blink of an eye.
“From this direction, within a day, I will leave Ancient Blue Province and arrive in Canglan Province...” Lin Xun spread out a map and studied it carefully on the ship.
Before this, he was stopped by the enemies every few hours because they had the Yin Ying Spirit Locking Mirror so he did not dare to escape using the Grand Universe Ark for fear of old monsters of the king stage intercepting him.
But now that the Yin Yang Spirit Locking Mirror had fallen into his hands, he had no such worries anymore.
The Grand Universe Ark could travel at unbelievable speed. Its speed was comparable to that of old monsters of the king stage.
This fact was already proven when Lin Xun was hunted down by two old monsters of the king stage from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan in the West Infinity World.
“Even if they lock onto my aura, by the time they catch up to me, I would have already left the Ancient Blue Province…” Lin Xun inhaled deeply. He knew that this would determine whether he would succeed or fail.
He could not relax at this critical juncture.
The night soon faded and dawn broke.
Several hours later, Lin Xun left the territory of the Ancient Blue Province without any problems and came to a city in the Canglan Province.
Not long after entering the city, Lin Xun left again. He had made some inquiries in the city and learned that there was also an ancient teleportation array in a city called Shuiming around thousands of miles away.
The array was controlled by Scarlet Sun Sword Sect, a top sect in the Canglan Province.
Not long after Lin Xun left, Cheng Huaikong arrived at the city with Chu Beihai, Xuan Wei and the others.
Except for Chu Beihai, the others were all old monsters of the king stage so their entrance naturally caused a sensation in the city.
“The boy has left. Based on the direction he left in, he must be heading for Shuiming City. He plans to leave using the ancient teleportation array there. Hurry! Chase after him!”
Within seconds, Cheng Huaikong and the others vanished like a gust of wind.
Shuiming City.
This city was rather peculiar as it was built on top of a huge mountain range. From a distance, the endless rolling mountains resembled the spine of a dragon. The city above it was like a country in the middle of a mountain.
Lin Xun stored away the Grand Universe Ark, disguised himself as a middle-aged man, and entered Shuiming city.
As he neared the ancient teleportation array in the city, he saw that there were already hundreds of cultivators waiting in a long queue.
“Brother, dare I ask when will this array be opened?” Lin Xun asked.
“It will be quick, in around a quarter of an hour.” answered a bearded man next to him casually.
“Then can I ask which province will the array lead to?” Lin Xun continued to ask.
The bearded man rolled his eyes and said irritably, “Of course, it’s Azure Rain City in the Gold Wood Province! Do you not know about that either?”
Lin Xun chuckled and asked no more.
The Gold Wood Province was located in the north of the East Victory World and was separated by hundreds of provinces from the Ancient Blue Province where Heaven Axis Holy Land was located.
As long as reached there, he would not need to worry about being hunted anymore.
“Everyone, the ancient teleportation array will be opened soon. The fee needs to be paid now. It will be three thousand high-grade aeth essence per person!” shouted a goateed old man.
He was an expert from the Scarlet Sun Sword Sect, which controlled the ancient teleportation array. Anyone who wanted to borrow the teleportation array had to pay them a fee.
However, Lin Xun was shocked to hear about the enormous fee. No ordinary cultivator would be able to afford to pay three thousand high-grade aeth essence.
After collecting the fees from each cultivator, the goatee old man took out the prohibition talisman, activated the ancient teleportation array and said loudly, “Everyone, I wish you all a safe trip!”
Hundreds of cultivators entered the ancient teleportation array one after another.
At this point, Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief. Once he left this place, he could fly freely. Regardless of how powerful Heaven Axis Holy Land was, they would not hunt for him all over the world.
After all, although the territories of the East Victory World spanned a huge area, many places had been controlled by ancient sects and clans. Regardless of how crazy and arrogant Heaven Axis Holy Land was, they would not dare to stir up trouble in the territory of other forces.
“Wait!” Following a loud roar, a group of figures rushed over.
Rumble!
The leader stretched out his hand before he arrived and removed the control talisman inlaid in the ancient teleportation array that was about to operate.
Everyone was astonished at first before dissatisfied looks crossed their faces, but when they saw the figures rushing over, they dared not utter a single word.
Even the experts of the Scarlet Sun Sword Sect froze, showing fear and respect.
This was because they were several old monsters of the king stage!
The group was strong enough to sweep the entire Shuiming City. Even the sect master of the Scarlet Sun Sword Sect would have to treat them with courtesy and respect.
Lin Xun’s pupils shrank. He saw Chu Beihai!
Moreover, the old man that headed the group exuded an aura as unfathomable as the sky and as deep as the sea.
Lin Xun had met many experts of the king stage so he knew right away that the old man was superior to ordinary old monsters of the king stage. He was likely to have already embarked on the Longevity Path!
In addition to him were four old monsters of the king stage. This lineup was terrifying.
In comparison, Chu Beihai did not appear to be a threat.
Lin Xun sighed in his heart. My luck is so bad. Why did this happen at the last moment…
Following the arrival of Chu Beihai and the others, the area fell dead silent and a feeling of unease and restlessness filled everyone. They did not know what was happening.
At the same time, Chu Beihai’s flaming golden eyes were fixed on the middle-aged man that was Lin Xun. A chilling smile cracked over his lips. “Lin Xun, we meet again!”
