Chapter 1109 Rumors of the Supreme Realm
Meanwhile, a long blade made of starlight swept forth like a guillotine of the dao and easily cut through the gangly elder.
Plop!
He abruptly exploded into pieces.
However, his primordial spirit managed to slip out of his physical shell at the very last moment and narrowly avoided the disaster. In the blink of an eye, it escaped without a trace.
His furious roar was still echoing in the sky.
The crowd’s hair stood on end, incomparably shocked by the scene they had just witnessed. It was unbelievable how an unrivaled King expert’s physical body had been destroyed so easily.
In fact, he would probably have been erased from existence if he had fled a split second later.
It was the first time that many people had seen Lin Xun use Star Chess Sea's restriction power. Hence, it was easy to imagine how shocked they were.
The entire place soon erupted and everyone began to look at Lin Xun in a different light.
This was a demon god!
Even someone as strong as Chu Zhongtian had lost and almost perished to Lin Xun.
In the face of a King expert’s contempt, Lin Xun was fearless and even fought back through force, ultimately leaving the other party no choice but to flee with only his primordial spirit!
Numerous people present were amazed that despite a month of silence, Demon God Lin was still the same Demon God Lin who was strong, arrogant, and unrivaled!
A'lu returned with the giant club on his shoulder and said in a low voice, "Big Bro, if only you killed those two old bastards first then dealt with Chu Zhongtian. That would have been a perfect extermination and a beautiful victory."
Perfect extermination?
The corners of Lin Xun's lips twitched. He did not expect that this guy would be even more evil-hearted than him.
Lin Xun responded, "Let’s not talk about such things. What brings you here?"
A’lu seriously said, "How can a brother not come to help when Big Bro is in trouble?"
Lin Xun sighed, ''A’lu, please don't call me Big Bro."
After all, A’lu looked much older with that rugged face. Who could imagine that he was only a nineteen-year-old youngster?
If others saw him calling Lin Xun Big Bro, they would mistakenly think that he was much older than he was.
"No way, you’re my Big Bro. Moreover, the old bastard said that I should follow you in the future. He told me that we brothers should be united when the great age arrives so that we can crush all the other heaven prides, become kings of the world, and live however we want."
A'lu’s voice was very loud, and he spoke like a bandit.
Hence, Lin Xun glanced at the crowd as he hurriedly stopped A'lu from saying any more. They then headed to the depths of the Star Chess Sea.
With a blabbermouth like A’lu around, there was no telling what consequences awaited if others were to hear the boastful claims he made.
Lin Xun wasn’t surprised when news of the battle spread to the various orthodoxies. For a time, it became the hottest topic among countless people.
Chu Zhongtian's strength was known to the world. Hence, it was very astonishing that he was defeated and nearly killed by Demon God Lin.
Many orthodoxies began to reassess Lin Xun's battle power. They believed he was now at least on par with the absolute apex giants and was probably even stronger!
Subsequently, several peerless individuals declared their desire to visit Star Chess Sea and subdue Lin Xun to prove their strength.
However, such news was quickly drowned out because far too many earth-shaking events were occurring in the Ancient Wasteland Domain due to the fast-approaching great age.
The most astonishing among them was the appearance of a young man named Chi Lingxiao from a certain ancient clan that had been silent for more than ten thousand years. After reemerging, he went on a rampage and caused many bloodbaths.
In the first incident, four great heirs of a certain ancient orthodoxy joined hands only to be blown up by Chi Lingxiao with a raise of his hand.
Subsequently, the number one expert of the Ba Serpent Clan was subdued and skinned by Chi Lingxiao.
Almost immediately after, a few more supreme path experts were killed one after another!
These events triggered extreme astonishment due to this all being the work of a single person. Chi Lingxiao was akin to a murder god who killed countless dazzling peers as he rampaged in the East Victory World.
"Someone has finally learned the Six Prisons World Destruction Art. The technique can destroy the heavens and earth as if a great prison is refining the world. It possesses almighty power that can stop and even murder the gods! I never imagined that it would appear in the world again after countless years!"
This news caused an uproar in the world.
An ancient-era talent who had been sealed for ten thousand years naturally reemerged into the world for the opportunity to become a King expert during the great age.
Moreover, he was unruly and full of savageness. He boldly proclaimed to the world, "Is there no worthy opponent among my peers in this era?"
The statement caused huge waves.
Old monsters from ancient orthodoxies set out in secret to assassinate Chi Lingxiao. However, they repeatedly failed and ended up being killed instead.
The reason for this was that Chi Lingxiao possessed a Saint treasure with earth-shaking power!
"Committing so much murder before the great age properly arrives. What a showoff."
In an old city shrouded in misty rain, a white-clothed beauty walked down the streets.
Icy and snowy light flowed around her. Her face was cold and beautiful, like a proud, lonely ice mountain that made others feel ashamed in comparison.
"Holy Maiden Lin Xue has appeared!"
On this day, news from this city shook the world.
Holy Maiden Lin Xue was a peerless beauty from three thousand years ago who once made countless heaven prides bend their backs.
Every step since the start of her cultivation journey was complete and perfect as if she was a goddess. It gave her a foundation that countless heaven prides could only look up to admiration.
"I have come for the great age. Although I do not wish to make enemies, I do not fear them either."
These were the words of Holy Maiden Lin Xue. Although they were simple, they also displayed absolute confidence and unrivaled grace.
There were also frequent news and rumors regarding other genius oddballs and talents with no lack of individuals who were even more amazing than Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue!
As such, the news of Chu Zhongtian’s defeat was merely one of many and could not monopolize the people’s attention for long.
……
Of course, none of this was of any concern to Lin Xun.
If it wasn't for Gu Yunting, Lin Xun wouldn’t even have bothered with Chu Zhongtian.
On a lone island in Star Chess Sea, Lin Xun prepared roasted meat and wine to receive A'lu and Gu Yunting.
"You don't know what's going on in the outside world?"
Lin Xun had originally planned to fish some information from A'lu. Who could have expected that he was completely clueless?
"What's the point of paying attention to those ancient-era freaks, geniuses, holy maidens, and monsters? They have nothing to do with me so why should I care? Can’t I just smash anyone who dares to mess with me?"
A'lu muddle-headedly said he gnawed on his black dog meat. His face was smeared in oil, and he happily ate as if the wine and meat in his hands were far more important than any expert that had appeared.
Lin Xun inwardly muttered, "Nitwit."
He had already learned that A'lu had specially come looking for him. Moreover, he was planning to rely on Lin Xun, saying they would traverse the world together and seize any opportunities they wanted.
Lin Xun was quite happy, believing that this was a sign of trust and admiration.
However, he would never have imagined that the real reason was because A'lu's master said Demon God Lin was most definitely a treacherous and ruthless individual. Hence, as long as A’lu kept his guard up and didn’t get screwed over, he would never suffer in the great age following someone like that.
Never mind if he was called treacherous and ruthless, but to think that A’lu was even warned to not get screwed over...
Even Lin Xun had to admit that A’lu’s master was truly an old bastard!
"I did hear one thing. With the nearing great age, the supreme path experts from the ancient orthodoxies are preparing to enter a place called the ‘Supreme Realm.’"
Gu Yunting suddenly brought this up, thinking that the information should be helpful to Lin Xun.
Sure enough, Lin Xun was instantly interested and began asking more.
"I've heard that after the great age arrives, the Ancient Wasteland Domain will undergo astonishing changes. A mysterious ancient realm will appear and only by entering will one be able to seize the opportunity to become a Supreme King. "
"Hence why it's called the Supreme Realm. "
"In the ancient era, the Supreme Realm once descended upon the world. It drew countless heaven prides and geniuses who entered in order to vie for the dao."
At this point, Gu Yunting added, "Oh, right, the Genius Gold Rankings will also appear in the Supreme Realm."
"Can anyone enter that place?"
Lin Xun couldn't help but ask. It was an important question.
Gu Yunting answered, "Anyone below the King stage has a chance to enter."
Lin Xun let out a sigh of relief. That would be best. If there wasn’t such a restriction, the King stage old monsters and Saint experts would likely be unable to resist entering to have a look.
However, when Lin Xun wanted to know more specifics, Gu Yunting shook his head because he had only briefly heard about it and didn’t have a chance to understand it in depth.
Even so, Lin Xun could still determine that the goal of every heaven pride who wished to become a Supreme King expert would be in the Supreme Realm!
This also meant that when the time came, the heaven prides would inevitably be forced to compete, launching an unprecedented battle for the dao.
It was destined to be an intense and tragic battle!
After all, the Supreme King stage wasn’t something just anyone could attain.
Lin Xun inwardly muttered, "If so, Yun Qingbai will inevitably enter as well..."
After eating his fill, A'lu very naturally found a place to sleep as if he no longer needed to concern himself about anything with a big brother like Lin Xun around.
Originally, Lin Xun wanted Gu Yunting to stay, but the other party intended to leave to find out more information about the great age. Although he wasn’t a supreme path expert, he didn’t plan on giving up on his goal.
This made Lin Xun feel a trace of respect. With such a strong will, as long as Gu Yunting persisted in his cultivation, his future achievements would only grow higher and higher.
Gu Yunting left, leaving Lin Xun and A'lu on the island.
From that day, Lin Xun restarted his routine of either cultivating, comprehending Grand Dao Power or practicing the various techniques in his arsenal. He didn’t waste a single second of his time.
Occasionally, he would also try to comprehend the Great Treasury Silent Scripture. By comparing it with his cultivation and testing certain things by analogy, Lin Xun was able to benefit tremendously.
After all, it was a dao scripture compiled and created from countless years of blood, sweat, and tears of Saint Monk Duji and the Black Phoenix Saint Queen.
It not only contained the dao and methods of the Earth Treasury Temple and the Phoenix Clan, but also the two Saint experts' experiences and understanding of the dao. Its value was probably greater than some of the ultimate ancient scriptures of the ancient orthodoxies!
Lin Xun was neither a Buddhist cultivator nor a descendant of the Phoenix Clan. Yet, he was still able to comprehend and cultivate the dao scripture. This showed just how extraordinary the dao scripture was.
Half a month passed.
On this day, Lin Xun, who was in the middle of comprehending the essence of the ‘Impermanence Slash,’ suddenly trembled and opened his eyes.
