Chapter 1526 Flower Pinching Finger
But to Lin Xun, his transformed strength was a result of his blood, sweat and tears and should logically happen!
In order to forge an unprecedented supreme path, Lin Xun had built an incredibly solid and stable foundation in the Longevity Stage, which would put any of his peers to shame.
At the eighth trial of the Great Azure Cloud Path in the Omega Secret Realm, he realized the Something from Nothing State and thereby comprehended the relationship between existence and non-existence as well as the principle of life and death.
At the ninth trial of the Great Azure Cloud Path, he overcame the karmic obstacle of ‘knock at the heart and ask for the truth,’ seeing through the truth and false, discerning between illusions and reality, and he saw his real body.
In the Blood Kill Battlefield, he spent one month in front of Dao Observation Mountain to realize the dao, comprehending the great dao insights left by the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor.
During his training on the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Palace, he awakened his innate divine ability and, with the guidance of the golden cicada youngster, overcame the Taboo Dao Tribulation.
After returning to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, he traveled all over the world and observed the world of mortals, perceiving the great beauty of heaven and earth in the mountains, rivers and valleys.
In a remote town, he used the art of stone carving to temper his mind...
In the Mind Killing Chamber of the underground palace secret realm, he killed the thief in his mind and thus accelerated the transformation of his state of mind...
In the Ultimate Dao Pavilion, he honed his great dao and built its foundation!
......
All the tribulations and everything he went through had been consolidating his great dao.
When he had faced the supreme Saint tribulation, realization struck him.
Motivated by the great aspiration of ascending the Saint Dao, he broke through the formless and intangible Saint tribulation, and in one swoop, reached the supreme Saint stage in all Three Ways to the Absolute Apex: spirit cultivation, qi refinement, and physical refinement!
“When I become a Saint, my heart is the heart of the heavens, and my dao is the great dao!”
Such grand aspirations for the Saint Dao had long been regarded as taboo.
But similarly, the moment that Lin Xun set foot into the Supreme Saint Stage, he also embarked on a great dao path that was completely different from other supreme Saints!
All his training, transformation, consolidation, accumulation and insights...were like planted seeds. Now that Lin Xun had become a Saint, these seeds sprouted, bloomed and bore fruits!
Rumble—
The battlefield quaked turbulently as divine light beamed in every direction. Only Lin Xun was practicing martial arts, conquering the world, while the supreme Saints were suppressed to the point that they could barely lift their heads.
“What did your master just say?” asked Ruowu.
Little Silver, who was watching the battle in excitement, was taken aback by the question. Then, he said proudly, “In the near future he will become invincible at the Supreme Saint Stage!”
Ruowu drew a deep breath, and her beautiful eyes shone brightly, “I believe it!”
Even if she was only spectating, the abilities and power that Lin Xun displayed in the battle alone already sent her trembling. It was hard to believe that he was a cultivator who had just set foot into the Supreme Saint Stage.
“That kid is getting stronger!” Cang Xingkun yelled out in anger, trembling inwardly.
“He is a demonic sword, and he is using us to sharpen his edges. We must not let him continue to do so!” Le Xuexiu thundered.
The pressure bearing down on them was getting stronger and stronger, and they were almost unable to hold up their heads.
“We just have to take a risk!”
Unhesitatingly, the seven supreme Saints took action, fighting back with all their strengths, hoping to reverse the situation.
In midair, all sorts of dao arts and treasures whizzed across, casting thousand beams of light. That vast power and force could easily wipe out any true Saint in the world!
But as those attacks even neared Lin Xun, they were swallowed up and annihilated by a grand abyss that formed around him.
Just like a clay ox entering the sea!
“Destroy!”
She Taixing was ready to fight to the death.
His face flushed red and his black hair suddenly turned the color of frost, while his aura steadily soared, becoming much stronger and more terrifying than before.
“Starburst!”
A bright crimson sword light was released inch by inch from his palm, and with every inch released, the power of his sword qi would soar significantly.
When the crimson sword light reached three feet long, it was like the most splendid light illuminating the world. The surrounding space cracked and exploded as though unable to bear the pressure of the sword qi.
Everyone felt their hair stand on end.
The sword qi had such power even though it had just formed. What kind of destructive power would it unleash when it slash out?
Pu!
She Taixing’s hair whipped around him, and he sprayed a mouthful of blood across the beam of three-foot sword light.
Rumble!
Instantly, the sword light seemed to come to life. It was like a blade of death emerging from the depths of the blood sea in hell. The world started to tremble under its terrifying aura.
Even Ruowu, who was watching the battle from afar, couldn’t help but frown.
“Go!” As She Taixing roared, the three-foot-long crimson sword light zapped across the air like a bolt of red lightning. Its fierce and sharp power rocked the world and disrupted the stars.
That sword alone would make ghosts and demons weep!
That sword was also an attack that gathered all the energy, qi, and spirit of Supreme Saint She Taixing!
Lin Xun, who was practicing martial arts, couldn’t help smiling.
At that moment, he folded his hand into a hand seal.
He pinched his fingers and, when he saw the crimson sword light, he immediately stretched out his hand and twisted it ever so gently.
It was as though he was picking up a petal. The motion was graceful, natural, and ethereal.
Flower Pinching Finger!
This was a secret buddhist art recorded in the Great Treasury Silent Scripture. It was an effortless pinch, but it radiated the aura of great freedom and wisdom.
Then, under everyone’s astonished gazes...
The three-foot red sword was gripped between Lin Xun’s fingers, unable to break free regardless of how it resisted.
“How is that possible?!”
She Taixing’s eyes bulged wide with bewilderment and horror.
He had already almost exhausted his energy in activating the art of Starburst and he concentrated all his strength into that beam of sword light.
This huge consumption of strength turned his skin dull and lifeless and his hair snowy white. But he was very confident that the sword could turn their situation around.
Who would have thought...
That pinch alone would firmly imprisoned his trump card that was instilled with all his strength, just like it was a dead earthworm.
Even Lei Xuexiu and the others widened their eyes in disbelief and were chilled to the bone!
Bang!
Without so much as any physical effort from Lin Xun, the three-foot crimson sword light was crushed and exploded between his fingers. Terrifying crimson light poured down from the sky like a waterfall.
“Pu!” She Taixing coughed up blood as if struck by lightning. His aura suddenly plummeted and weakened. He swayed about as though on the verge of collapsing.
In the distance, Lin Xun remarked, “The art of the sword should not be like that. Here, take my sword.”
Swoosh!
With a wave of his sleeve, a ray of Taixuan Sword Qi flashed out.
The sword qi was bright and dazzling, the sword intent clanged, and the sword power flooded the universe!
“Run!” Le Xuexiu shouted.
She Taixing shuddered as he snapped out of his shocked state. Almost instinctively, he teleported away.
But the next moment, he fell from midair, his face contorting into a horrified expression as he stared at Lin Xun in the distance. “What kind of sword art was that...?”
Pu!
Before he finished speaking, a piercing hole appeared in the center of his eyebrows and his eyes bulged wide open. He plunged from the sky.
An earthshaking sword.
She Taixing, a supreme Saint from the Golden Demon Snake Clan, was killed, with both his body and spirit utterly destroyed!
The area became deathly silent.
It was difficult to kill a True Saint, but it was even more difficult to kill a supreme True Saint.
A cultivator of that level, even if their physical body was destroyed and all life force was severed, as long as a wisp of spirit remained, they could still live on.
Some powerful characters could even retrieve their lives with a secret art even if their spirit was shattered into countless pieces!
But everyone could tell that She Taixing was truly dead.
The sword pierced the space between his eyebrows and destroyed his spirit and physical body. No one could bring him back to life!
As expected, not long after that, the sound of mourning rang from above and a blood-red color filled the sky!
“He really died...”
Le Xuexiu and the others all felt a chill and a sinking feeling in their hearts.
It was not easy to become a supreme Saint, but once succeeded, it was almost impossible to be killed, unless the opponent had absolute crushing power.
But She Taixing...died!
This was like a slap to the faces of Le Xuexiu and the others, making them realize that although their opponent had just ascended to the Supreme Saint Stage, he already overpowered enemies at the same cultivation level.
Ruowu and Little Silver exchanged a glance, noticing the astonishment in each other’s expressions.
When Lin Xun was only at the Nine Longevity Tribulations Stage, he already did the impossible of killing True Saints, shocking the entire world.
But now, as soon as he set foot into the Supreme Saint Stage, he killed She Taixing, a senior supreme Saint. He was so ridiculously fierce and strong!
The battle continued unabated.
After killing She Taixing, Lin Xun was still practicing martial arts, tapping into his potential at the Saint Stage. All sorts of comprehension and insights were rushing up in his mind.
But Le Xuexiu and the others were completely shaken. Unwilling to be suppressed anymore, they all went crazy like panicked rabbits.
At this moment, Lin Xun knew he must concentrate fully.
A supreme Saint going berserk was nothing to be afraid of, but a group of them was a different story.
“Kill!” Tu Wankong roared, and blood colored Saint light spread throughout his imposing mountain-like body. Every inch of his skin was glowing brilliantly, and his bones and muscles were creaking and clattering like metal as they moved.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a hundred-foot-tall giant. With one punch, the world within thousands of miles was violently shaking and rumbling like it was sinking in.
Clearly, out of desperation, Tu Wankong had used his trump card!
Even Lin Xun seemed unable to bear the impact. With a boom, his body was blasted into the ground and smashed out a pit of unfathomable depth.
We succeeded?
Le Xuexiu and the others stared anxiously.
This was Tu Wankong’s desperate blow, which was enough to split mountains and seas.
Ruowu and Little Silver also tensed up nervously.
They knew that the blow could definitely not kill Lin Xun, but if he was injured, it could affect the outcome of the battle.
“Lin Xun, you have earned our respect with your strength. I just have a word of advice for you: Don’t fight like a cornered wild beast. We are happy to accept you as a member of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain and you can enjoy...” Le Xuexiu shouted.
Unfortunately, before he could finish, a pillar of divine light shot into the sky.
Lin Xun stood tall in midair, but unlike before, the Nine Pure Dao Light was flowing out and throughout his body.
Through his resplendent and translucent skin, one could see that every part of his bones was as bright as gold or jade, and his organs were blazing like the scorching sun. As his blood circulated around his body, it rumbled like a divine being was beating a drum, stirring up the nine heavens.
