Chapter 1386 Monster-Beasts Across the City

Given Lin Xun’s current level of cultivation, he was more than qualified to advise King Stage cultivators, let alone teach Spirit Sea Stage descendants of the Lin Clan.

However, Lin Xun would not be hasty and rush their cultivation training. After years of cultivation, there was one thing he always remembered: A master can only lead a disciple to the cultivation door, the individual must practice themselves to excel.

Ultimately, when it came to cultivating the dao, one had to explore it themselves to achieve any success.

After several days of observation, he had a rough idea of the temperament, talent, aptitude and foundation of every Lin Clan descendant.

Hence, he would teach and guide them accordingly.

“Lin Xing,” Lin Xun called out a name.

A white robed man quickly stood up. “Clan Leader.”

Lin Xun took out a Thundering Violet Bamboo and handed it to him. “You have a resilient personality and are full of energy, but you must know how to hide your clumsiness. Inside of this bamboo is a legacy left by an ancient sage. I think it suits you quite well, so take it and study it.”

Lin Xing quivered and he quickly received it. “Thank you, Clan Leader.”

He could not wait to start reading it. Suddenly, a rush of inheritance power appeared in his mind—

Thousand Collection Sword Scripture!

Lin Xing’s mind was quickly immersed in the scripture.

“Lin Yunxia.”

Lin Xun called out another name, and a girl in a blue dress stood up.

“You are too reserved and not fierce enough. Remember, cultivation is like sailing against the current. You should pursue the path of bravery and boldness. Fight for what you should fight for. The inheritance inside here should be suitable for you.”

Lin Xun handed her a Thundering Violet Bamboo.

Then, he took out more Thundering Violet Bamboos and gave them to other Lin Clan members.

Those Thundering Violet Bamboos were all left by Battle Emperor Mo Yang in the Underworld River Forbidden Zone of the Supreme Realm.

At that time, he had to fight three thousand consecutive battles and defeat the experts left in the three thousand bamboos. Before he left, he also conveniently took one hundred odd Thundering Violet Bamboos with him.

Those bamboos were all imbued with ancient inheritances, which was a remarkable secret of the world. If they were leaked to the outside world, it would ignite the jealousy and covetous desire of countless cultivators.

However, to Lin Xun, they were nothing special. After all, he could defeat the expert in each bamboo, which proved his abilities and powers.

“Xuefeng, you have already reached the perfect Cyclic Derivation Stage. What you lack is an opportunity to advance to the king stage. Here are some of my experiences and insights when I broke through to the king stage, as well as ten king-grade herbs. Take them.”

Lin Xun took out a bamboo slip and a sealed box and handed them to Lin Xuefeng.

Lin Xuefeng stiffened, and he was almost moved to tears. It was only after a good while that he took a deep breath and said, “Thank you, Clan Leader!”

Lin Xun stood up and said with a smile, “I have taught you all everything I can teach you. The rest depends on your own efforts. The road of the great dao is arduous; only those with great perseverance and determination can progress far.”

Everyone nodded solemnly, keeping his words in mind.

“Alright, get ready. We are about to arrive in the Southwest Province, where we will fight for real!”

Lin Xun reminded them and walked out of the cabin.

For Lin Xun, guiding and teaching the Lin Clan descendants on their cultivation was just a trivial matter.

But he did not expect that his little decision today would help bring about a powerful authority figure in the Lin Clan who would help lead the clan and shine brightly in the years to come!

......

Several hours later.

The Grand Universe Ark came to an abrupt halt in the air. On the bow of the ship, Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes, his robe whipping around him.

On the ground in the far distance, countless figures were fleeing for their lives, most of which were ordinary people; their faces were all contorted with panic and fear.

There was no end to the mass of fleeing figures.

“Mother, where are you? Wait for me!”

“Quickly run!”

“They are catching up!”

Distraught voices rang one after another. The ordinary people were all fleeing haphazardly with their families. There were men, women, elderly and young children. It was a scene of utter chaos.

Lin Xun wrinkled his brows. Haze City, the capital of the Southwest Province, was only less than a few thousand miles away. Why would there be such a large scale fleeing?

Could the entire Southwest Province be under threat?

Swoosh!

Lin Xun steered the Grand Universe Ark forward.

Before long, they encountered a group of fleeing cultivators. Their faces were all pale and distorted with fear and distress.

“Friend, what happened in Haze City?” asked Lin Xun.

“Hurry and run. The monster-beast army has fully surrounded Haze City! The city is going to fall into the enemy’s hands in less than a day.”

“That’s right, it’s so terrifying. Eighteen monster-beast generals have led an army of three hundred thousand monster-beasts to attack the city. Wherever they have passed, not a single blade of grass remains!”

“Friend, hurry up and turn around! You can’t go into Haze City anymore!”

The cultivators spoke in hurried and terrified manners.

They did not pause at all to talk and just sped past Lin Xun. They were clearly frightened out of their wits.

“Has the monster-beast problem become so serious already?” Lin Xun raised his eyebrows.

Lin Xuefeng stepped forward and said in a worried voice, “Clan Head, in my opinion, we can’t go to the Southwest Province anymore.”

“We can’t go?” Lin Xun repeated calmly. “Xuefeng, what are we here for?”

Lin Xuefeng answered without hesitation, “Kill monster-beasts.”

“In that case, why don’t we head to kill the monster-beasts ahead when we know they are bringing about disasters? Or do you think that I am no match for them?”

Lin Xuefeng frantically shook his head, breaking out in a cold sweat. He was just worried and had never questioned Lin Xun’s ability and power.

“Then let’s go. Only the most dangerous battlefield can hone your true abilities.”

Lin Xun drove the Grand Universe Ark through the sky.

Before long, the tremendous outline of Haze City loomed in front.

After arriving there, they only saw more and more fleeing figures rushing past like a tide. There were not only ordinary people with their families, but also many cultivators.

Lin Xun’s expression was calm as water, and he uttered not a word. The Grand Universe Ark soared into the sky and entered Haze City in the blink of an eye.

He surveyed the vast city and saw nothing but deserted streets and alleys.

Haze City was a grand and prosperous city in the Southwest Province. Lin Xun had also lived there for a period when he was young. From what he remembered, it was a bustling, lively city that was always full of life. It had a population of millions, but now it gave the feeling of a deserted city!

“Why did you all come back? Hurry and go! The Governor has already issued the order. He will do everything he can to buy time for you all to escape. Don’t waste the Governor’s efforts!”

In the distance, an imperial army appeared. Their faces darkened when they saw Lin Xun and the others, and they started to reprimand them, urging them to get out of here.

Although it was a scolding, it touched Lin Xun’s heart.

The governor of a province had a noble and superior status, but in the face of disaster, he chose to stay behind and muster all his strength to fight to death against the monster-beast army just to buy time for those who were fleeing!

How could Lin Xun not be moved by such a heroic person who was willing to throw away his life for the common people in the world?

Rumble—

Bursts of booming noise came from the far distance. It was the sound of fierce fighting and the sky rumbling.

“Can’t wait any longer.”

Lin Xun drew a deep breath and the Grand Universe Ark soared into the sky and disappeared.

“Stop! Are you crazy?!”

“Maybe he also wants to do his part for the empire?”

“Ah, but it’s over. If he stays around...he is going to die...”

The imperial soldiers were flabbergasted, and immediately their expressions were overcast with indescribable sadness.

“Brothers, it’s time for us to take action!”

Suddenly, someone roared with a determined voice.

“Let’s go, even if we die, we have to take a few more monster-beasts down with us!”

“Hahaha, as long as I can fight side by side with you all, so what if I die?”

The imperial soldiers were all cultivators. Laughing heartily, they charged towards the battlefield like a group of heroes unafraid of death.

Even knowing that they would die, they still had to fight!

......

In the south of Haze City, the tall city tower was already stained with blood and piled with mutilated corpses. The bright scarlet bloodstains dyed the city wall a gruesome red.

In the high altitude, only eight medium-sized imperial battleships were barely holding on.

And on the periphery of the city, a never-ending army of monster-beasts swept the mountains and plains like a tide!

The army of monster beasts consisted of ferocious birds with fine iron-like wings, fierce beasts with huge mountain-like bodies, and plant and tree spirits that took the form of humans. There were at least hundreds of thousands of them.

Rumble!

The imperial army had been repeatedly forced back to the city wall and could only defend passively. They struggled to even protect themselves, let alone counterattack.

The situation was perilous!

“Lord, please leave, the monster-beast army is unstoppable!”

In the city tower, a group of influential figures of the Southwest Province scrunched their faces with worry as they tried to persuade Governor Song Jungui to leave the city.

“Where there is life, there is hope! There will be a time when we can turn things around!”

“Lord, please leave!”

Everyone was burning with worry.

Only Song Jungui was quiet with a livid face.

He was reluctant to leave!

How could he leave when monster-beasts were stirring up chaos, putting people in extreme suffering and misery, causing bloodbaths left and right, and leaving heroes of the empire dead everywhere?

In the distance, the roaring of monster-beasts were like taunts and nearly drove Song Jungui mad. Fury twisted inside of him and he almost crushed his own teeth.

Those bastards!

His anger flared and he roared, “Everyone, no need to persuade me anymore. If this city is breached, then I would rather be buried with it!”

Everyone’s heart sank.

Boom!

Another medium-sized imperial battleship plunged from the sky, destroyed by a giant bird.

The situation was only becoming worse and worse.

“Everyone, just go. From this point on, I will defend the city alone!” Song Jungui commanded.

“Lord, if you won’t leave, neither will we!” Everyone clamored.

Their faces bore a look of determination.

“This is an order!” Song Jungui bellowed, exuding an intimidating aura.

“Hmph, none of you can leave here!”

A ferocious bird bathed in green lightning sneered overhead.

Suddenly, it turned into a bolt of green lightning and flashed downwards in the direction of the city tower.

The speed was terrifying!
