Chapter 1298 Raising Storms

His sword qi had been secretly accumulating momentum for a long time. While he hadn’t put all of his power in it, it had still been strong enough to intimidate a peak seventh longevity Supreme King.

But his spirit sense had told him that the delicate figure had only suffered a slight wound.

Bang!

The green flying sword completely nullified the Broken Blade’s attack, then emitted a clear sword hum and sped off.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li fled without dragging their feet at all.

Lin Xun was going to chase after them, but after glancing at the recuperating A’lu, he sighed in his heart and gave up on this idea.

In fact, he had no regrets because he knew that the right time frame had slipped away. Even if he went after them, he still wouldn’t be able to catch up.

“Let’s clean up the battlefield before we leave,” said Lin Xun to Toady’s group as his eyes swept around. The crowd was as quiet as a mouse, not daring to meet his gaze.

They still hadn’t returned to their senses after witnessing the shockingly bloody battle. When facing Lin Xun, there was nothing but horror in their hearts. They didn’t feel the slightest bit of courage to stand up to him.

“Let’s go!”

It didn’t take long for Toady, A’lu, and the big black bird to loot the spoils of war. They gathered with Lin Xun, and the four left the blood-soaked land together.

They didn’t dally because who knew what else could happen? Lin Xun didn’t want to gamble as he had already accomplished his goal of safely protecting A’lu.

With Lin Xun’s departure, the oppressive atmosphere also dissipated. The crowd felt like a weight had been taken off their shoulders and heaved a long sigh of relief.

However, the shock in their hearts and minds lingered for a long time to come.

“Just exactly how strong is Demon God Lin now?” someone murmured.

Many cultivators had gathered in a big army, treating A’lu as a caged beast that they could rob and slaughter at will. There had even been powerful, famous figures in the entire Upper Nine Realms such as Underworld Son and Bai Longting in attendance.

But who would have thought that Lin Xun would be able to tear apart such an army all by himself? With a crushing momentum, he had cut them down one after another and stained the entire region with blood!

“Including Bai Longting, a total of nineteen apex characters on the Genius Gold Rankings were killed. In addition to this, thirty-two Supreme Kings were killed in the battle...”

Someone conducted the statistics, and the numbers they came up with were frightening!

There were countless powerful cultivators in the Upper Nine Realms, but only a hundred could put their names on the Genius Gold Rankings.

Yet, in just a single battle, nineteen of them had died at Lin Xun’s hands!

There was no doubt that once this got out, the entire Upper Nine Realms would be washed over with a sensational storm.

“Luckily I never got involved.”

Many people secretly appreciated their own fortune, and sweated uncontrollably when they recalled the scenes of the battle. If they had jumped on the bandwagon and attacked Demon God Lin, then they would now be one of those bloody remains on the ground.

Several people analyzed Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li in alarm, “The three people who appeared later were quite something, don’t you think? They most likely belonged to the same group that serves someone called Imperial Son!”

“Indeed. They each revealed that they were as strong as Bai Longting. It’s hard to believe that they had all remained silent before this!”

“The scariest one is probably ‘Imperial Son.’ I can’t imagine how strong that person must be to be able to gather such powerful people as subordinates. Definitely not someone simple!”

The crowd discussed with tumbling hearts.

One person lamented, “But no matter who they are, they still couldn’t do a thing to Demon God Lin. And that’s what makes him so terrifying!”

Chi Yao was the only one who hadn’t spoken at all.

Her heart was filled with bitterness and frustration.

That year when she had left the Burning Immortal Realm, she had secretly sworn that she would find Lin Xun and take the Bodhi wood after she stepped into the Supreme King stage.

Who could have imagined that now, even though she had become a Supreme King, it was already impossible for her to be his match...

“And the Bodhi wood...just had to fall into his hands...” Chi Yao’s mood turned gray.

She was like a walking corpse as she left the field. In the past, she had been proud and conceited, believing that she could rise to prominence in the great age, stand above the masses, and set off storms.

Now, she realized that her ideas were na?ve and childish.

In the presence of a vicious character like Demon God Lin, most ancient-era eccentric geniuses wouldn’t even dare to raise their heads!

......

In an area densely covered with thunder and lightning, Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li appeared.

“Miss Wanyin, are you injured?”

The three were taken aback when they saw the delicate figure that had been waiting for them.

It was a fairy-like woman with an ethereal bearing. Her figure was indistinct as she was shrouded in a hazy mist

Looking closely, she appeared to be seventeen or eighteen years old, but as she stood there casually, she exuded an otherworldly demeanor beyond ages.

What shocked the three was her slightly pale face and the few bright blood stains on her lapel.

And on her right index finger, a bead of blood was about to drop.

How could the three not be shocked?

The woman called Wanyin in front of them was their lord Imperial Son’s personal maid who had been by his side during his hibernation in the ancient era.

Even though she was a maid, no one dared to treat her like a servant.

It was because Wanyin’s aptitude, intelligence, and origin were all top-class and not inferior to any ancient-era eccentric genius!

On top of that, she had an inherent, unique talent that allowed her cultivation to advance without hindrance, which alone was enough to make countless cultivators concede defeat!

Even Imperial Son had once lamented that letting Wanyin follow him around and serve him would be a dishonor to her talent! This showed how highly he regarded her.

For such a godly existence to be injured...

Instantly, Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li recalled the sword qi that Lin Xun had deployed!

Their blood ran cold.

It was so powerful that it could injure Miss Wanyin?

“What do you think of Lin Xun’s combat power?” said Wanyin suddenly. Her voice was ethereal like celestial music that blew a breath of fresh air into the world and enlivened it.

“Very strong!”

This was the three’s unanimous conclusion.

Even though they didn’t want to, they had to admit that they wouldn’t have dared to offend Lin Xun if it hadn’t been for Wanyin watching over them in the shadows.

That person was an unfathomable abyss that could not be measured by common sense!

Wanyin nodded and fell silent, seeming to ponder something.

“By the way, Lin Xun is accompanied by a God Devourer Insect King. We must report this to His Lordship!” said Yu Xi suddenly with a hint of frustration.

If it hadn’t been for that God Devourer Insect, she would have been able to kill A’lu with her spirit attack and seize the emperor’s mound fortune on him!

“God Devourer Insect...” Wanyin’s eyes lost focus as she seemed to recall many things from the past. Only after a long time did she say, “This indeed must be reported to the lord immediately!”

......

In just a few days, the entire Upper Nine Realms had been swept over by an uproar.

After two years in Stupa Brahma Land, Demon God Lin had come out and proceeded to the Ancient Land of All where he dominated an army of enemies, killed a path out of their siege, and slaughtered an array of apex characters!

This news instantly rocketed Lin Xun's reputation to an unprecedented height, sparking endless discussion and clamor.

“Killing nineteen supreme characters on the Genius Gold Rankings all by himself... He’s bloodthirsty!” Some people could feel their hearts tremble.

“With his current strength, he should be in the top three of the Genius Gold Rankings.” Many started to analyze Lin Xun’s battle prowess.

“Where is Yun Qingbai? Why hasn’t he appeared? Is he just going to watch Lin Xun develop an invincible momentum?” Those who hated Lin Xun were indignant, hoping that someone would step forward and curb him.

Regardless of the credibility of the rumored blood feud between Lin Xun and Yun Qingbai, the fact that Lin Xun had killed a bunch of disciples from Omega Sword Sect was true, and that was why these people placed their hopes on Yun Qingbai.

Unfortunately, the man in question seemed to have evaporated in the past several years. There had been no news of him, and he hadn’t even shown up when his position had dropped down from the top of the Genius Gold Rankings.

Apart from all this, the identity Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li had also attracted the attention of many major powers.

These three had been silent, and their names had never appeared on the Genius Gold Rankings despite having fighting power that rivaled those of Bai Longting’s caliber.

It was impossible to not pay attention to this!

Who were they?

And who was the person they had referred to as Imperial Son?

It was only now did many people suddenly realize that they couldn’t focus solely on the Genius Gold Rankings, nor should they judge people based on it alone.

Because there were still many extremely powerful characters who hadn’t made a move to compete for a place on the Genius Gold Rankings.

For example, there was Lin Xun.

For example, there were also Yu Xi, Bai Qian, and Yao Li who had only recently become known.

This kept people guessing: Just how many unknown characters like them were there in the Upper Nine Realms?

......

Mythic Fire Realm, Flying Star Mountain.

When the passageway to the Upper Nine Realms had first opened, this blessed mountain had been occupied by the Golden Crow Lineage.

But after just a few years, the Golden Crow Lineage had been decimated.

Ravaged by the wars, Flying Star Mountain had long since become deserted and no longer possessed the vitality of a blessed land.

On this day, Lin Xun and his friends appeared before Flying Star Mountain.

“I remember there was an ancestral aeth vein underneath this mountain. If we find it and enhance it with a large array, it can be used as a decent blessed land for cultivation.”

Lin Xun looked up at the ruined, deserted mountain and recalled the first time that he had set foot on it. Back then, the Golden Crow Clan had been a dominant force, lofty like a sun in the sky with strong and numerous troops.

But now, after only a few years, their prosperity had gone with the wind, and all of their grand ambitions had burst like bubbles!
