Chapter 1658: Outside the Great Emperor Pass

If not for the fact that Lin Xun had still had a trump card in reserve this time, his only fate would have been death!

As such, Lin Xun was certainly not willing to let Gu Liangqu be exonerated.

Right at this moment, Lone Man turned around with a hint of despondency on his face and let out a soft sigh.

“Kid, it’s not that I don’t want to kill him for you, but such pertains to the rules of this Great Emperor Pass. Even I have never broken them, and this time can’t be an exception either. Otherwise…it won’t be much different from slapping my own face. But you can rest assured that, for the next ten thousand years, that fellow will be subjected to infinite torment and torture, which will actually be more unbearable to him than death.

“Death is the end of everything, while living can sometimes be much more painful.”

The crowd of old monsters fell silent. Lone Man’s words were as good as a final judgment on Gu Liangqu’s fate. What awaited him would be up to ten thousand years of suppression and torment!

For a cultivator who was infinitely close to the Emperor stage, ten thousand years was really too long. There would be too many opportunities that he would miss out on!

“It’s a pity that I’ve exchanged you, my ultimate card, for this kind of result... If I had known, I would have saved it for later.” Lin Xun had no choice but to accept it.

Lone Man snorted out a laugh before his expression quickly flipped as he grunted coldly, “I already reminded you back then that this token is just for scaring people!”

Then, he seemed to realize something and glanced at Lin Xun in surprise. From what this kid just said, does it mean that even if he hadn’t summoned me, he would still have other means to resolve the dangerous situation just now?

“Time is running out, so let me give you a final word of caution. If you go to the Ancient Nebula Road in the future, be careful of the Dark Blood Underworld Emperor. That old thing was a vicious character who, in his youth, would stop at nothing to achieve what he wanted. Even after becoming an Emperor, his heart is still black and his mind is full of evil schemes. If you offend him, no matter whether you are an ant or a Great Emperor, he will definitely retaliate with all his might…”

Lone Man left this parting advice to Lin Xun through voice transmission as his figure gradually blurred. When his voice vanished, his figure had also dissolved into nothingness like a wisp of smoke.

The token in Lin Xun’s hand also shattered with a crunch.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but fall into a daze. Among all the worlds in this universe, just what kind of existence was the lower world where the Ziyao Empire was located?

It hosted not only one of the four great dao dominions, the Return Dominion, but also the Dao Burial Sea Mound and the unfathomable Mulberry Woodland. It was also home to old and mysterious antiques like Lone Man and the Seer of the stargazing platform…

Even Mister Lu and Lin Xun’s mother Luo Qingxun, when arriving from the other side of the starry sky, had not landed in the Ancient Wasteland Domain or the other eight domains, and had instead chosen to lay low in the lower world.

What was the mystery behind all this?

As Lin Xun was in his stunned, silent trance, the old monsters in the area were all relieved like a huge weight had been taken off of them.

Whether it was Gu Liangqu or Lone Man, the heavy pressure they had brought had made everyone uncomfortable.

Now, they could finally relax.

Their expressions, however, were complicated.

Shun Ji’s group was still shocked by the seemingly endless secrets hidden on Lin Xun, and it left them mulling.

On the other hand, the old monsters who had been suppressed by the host of terrifying beings still displayed deep apprehension.

Gu Liangqu was the number one expert of the Great Emperor Pass, and he had even used the Emperor Dao’s True Blood, but what was the result? He had lost utterly and ended up being sentenced to ten thousand years of imprisonment!

Meanwhile, the red-clad woman quietly smiled, knowing that she had made the right choice. The room that had been shrouded in darkness for ages could only be illuminated by a single light!

Without a word, she transformed into the fiery red Thousand Feather Sword Flower and shot into the Ice Snow Leaf in Lin Xun’s palm.

Mister Shen took a deep breath and, with a smile, walked toward Lin Xun.

“Little friend, long time no see.”

……

In the palace.

Lin Xun and Mister Shen were sitting on the ground.

The crowd had dispersed. After that unimaginable and bloody battle, everyone needed some time to sort out their feelings.

After a long silence, Mister Shen smiled and said, “The fault is not yours. Even if you broke the rules of the Great Emperor Pass, it’s justifiable, so you don’t need to feel pressured.”

Lin Xun sighed, “I don’t feel any pressure; I’m just a little disappointed. I really can’t understand why someone of Gu Liangqu’s character could be regarded as the number one expert of the Great Emperor Pass.”

Mister Shen explained, “The reason is actually very simple. Firstly, he is a half-step Emperor with superb battle prowess. Secondly, he has the highest seniority and age here. You also know that this is the Frontline Battlefield where even quasi-Emperors are subjected to death.

“Let’s just say that over the past ten thousand years, a total of three hundred and seventy-seven quasi-Emperors of the Great Emperor Pass have fallen. The casualties can be said to be heavy, and among the departed, there is no lack of experts stronger than Gu Liangqu, but only he has managed to survive to the present.”

Speaking of this, Mister Shen thought for a moment and continued, “Being able to survive until now isn’t just a matter of luck, one must also have the ability to match it.”

Lin Xun made no comment and didn’t continue this topic. Instead, he took out the letter Mister Miaoxuan had asked him to deliver and handed it to Mister Shen.

After reading it, Mister Shen’s eyes flashed with a strange color. He seemed to be in disbelief but at the same time incredibly delighted.

He stood up and bowed, “Many thanks, little friend!”

His action caught Lin Xun off guard. He hurriedly got up. “It’s nothing, Senior.”

Mister Shen laughed, “If it wasn’t for this letter, I wouldn’t have known that our Ancient Wasteland Camp had won an unprecedented victory in the recent domain conflict, and that you, little friend, is now the Number One in the Nine Domains Battlefield!”

His voice was filled with praise and emotion.

This was indeed an unprecedented victory, and anyone who heard about it would feel their hearts stirring and their spirits boiling.

Lin Xun said, “It was not achieved by me alone.”

Mister Shen laughed out loud, “Oh you, don’t be modest. As someone who's in charge of the Spring Autumn Brush and the Annals of History, Miaoxuan never exaggerates. He’s told me everything with this letter, so how can I not understand that this triumphant victory was entirely thanks to you?”

Saying that, there was a flash of determination between his brows. “This matter must be announced to everyone in the Great Emperor Pass loud and clear. Old Practitioner Qiu, Gu Liangqu, and those old fellows, as well as Underworld Son… Nothing can describe the gravity of their mistake!”

Mister Shen then asked, “By the way, why did you insist on coming to the Frontline Battlefield? Miaoxuan even adjured that I take care of you.”

Lin Xun took out the Ice Snow Leaf. “A senior told me to bring this…”

He then relayed the golden cicada’s instructions.

After Mister Shen learned all of this, he couldn’t help but be moved. After a long daze, he said coldly, “Gu Liangqu! He almost caused the whole Great Emperor Pass to suffer a great loss!”

At this point, Lin Xun’s heart was completely relaxed.

He had done everything that should be done and lived up to the trust of the golden cicada.

……

On this day, the beacon tower in every stronghold of the Great Emperor Pass blazed at the same time.

Simultaneously, certain news was spread.

“The number one expert of the Great Emperor Pass, Gu Liangqu, made a monstrous mistake and has been sentenced to ten thousand years of suppression!”

“In the recent Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Ancient Wasteland Domain won an unprecedented victory, and the younger generation’s Supreme Saint Lin Xun has been hailed the Number One of the Nine Domains Battlefield!”

“Mister Shen has ordered an all-out manhunt for Underworld Son!”

“Supreme Saint Lin Xun has brought with him a treasure from a Great Emperor. If nothing unexpected happens, this will change the entire situation of the Frontline Battlefield!”

Each piece of news was like a bolt from the heavens, and when they all spread together, they took over the Great Emperor Pass by storm.

Countless old monsters were shaken and awed.

A great number of people lamented Gu Liangqu’s situation.

But no matter what, from this day onward, one name was carved into their minds—

Lin Xun!

Although he was only a supreme Saint, the various miracles he had created were enough to surpass and amaze history!

……

“That old fogey Gu Liangqu is useless!”

Deep in a chaotic starry sky extremely far away from the Great Emperor Pass, Underworld Son was fleeing in fear.

Immediately after he had learned that he was wanted, he hadn’t dared to delay one second and had fled without hesitation.

“The number one expert in the Great Emperor Pass, huh? And he was helpless against a little scumbag! He might as well clean his neck and cut it!”

Underworld Son was so angry that his face was hideously livid.

But deep down in his heart, there was an indescribable sadness.

Every encounter with Lin Xun has inevitably led to a disaster falling on my head. Is that bastard my born nemesis?

Whenever he thought of Lin Xun, loathing filled Underworld Son so much that he gritted his teeth. That bastard even regards me as a treasure delivery boy! Simply intolerable!

“Lin Xun, just you wait! The next time we meet, I will pull out your tendons, rip off your skin, and subdue you into the Spirit Refining Kettle, so that you will be tormented for eternity and can’t even die even if you beg to!”

Underworld Son was roaring endlessly in his heart.

……

The sensation running through the Great Emperor Pass did not reach Lin Xun at all.

“Little friend, look.”

He was on a city wall, which in reality was infinitely high and reached straight into the clouds. Standing on it, as far as the eye could see, was only a vast expanse.

Mister Shen pointed to the distance and said, “That, beyond the Great Emperor Pass, is a bloody land made up of countless broken worlds. Since the primeval era, it has been the battlefield where the Ancient Wasteland Domain clashes with enemies from the other eight domains. In these countless years, an unknown number of worlds have been shattered, burying with them an infinite number of lives.”

Standing next to Mister Shen, Lin Xun tried to look but only saw a desolate, broken, and chaotic scene of collapsed mountains and rivers, shattered grounds, floating world fragments, and spatial cracks…

A mere glance at it sent chills down his spine!

It wasn’t so much a battlefield as it was a boundless burial mound of everything. It buried worlds and all living beings!

Only quasi-Emperor characters could roam in it. Any weaker and participating in the killing would only be a far-fetched dream as one might instantly be met with demise.

Such was the scene outside the Great Emperor Pass. It gave nothing but a fierce impact of oppression, coldness, and despair.

Mister Shen’s clothes fluttered. His voice was deep and heavy, “Only by witnessing all of this will you be able to understand the significance of the Great Emperor Pass. Its existence alone has enabled the billions of beings in our Ancient Wasteland Domain to persist for such a long history and survive to this day!”
