Chapter 1681: The Emperor Decree
Chapter 1681: The Emperor Decree
In ordinary circumstances, Saint-Kings would rarely resort to such a powerful killing weapon because not many were a threat to them in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.
However, two Great Dao Fields of Wu Fengzi and Wu Lingzi were activated at the same time and aimed at Lin Xun alone.
Even Saint-Kings would be terror-stricken by this sight!
This showed that the change in Lin Xun’s aura caused fear in the two Saint-Kings from the Golden Crow Clan.
Lin Xun showed no attempt to move or evade, and not a flicker of expression crossed his face. It was as if he did not see anything.
The only movement was the Abi Sword slashing out from his hand.
Boom!
A dense beam of black sword intent shot up, leaving a trail of bright and dazzling light hanging in the sky, like a river of stars in the eternal night. In the boundless expanse stars were falling from the sky.During the process, mist spread, hell emerged, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. Those magnificent scenes were just like when the primal chaos created the world. It was both wonderful and despairing.
This is bad!
Both Wu Fengzi and Wu Lingzi felt their hearts sink, realizing that the power of the sword was unstoppable and undefeatable.
Without hesitation, the two dodged with lightning speed.
Bang! Bang!
The terrifying powers of the Azure Flame Dao Field and the Fire Leaf Golden Field were both crushed under the sword.
As the sword swung down, the sun, moon and stars fell, and everything else collapsed, demonstrating the absolute power to crush everything that stood in its way.
With an ear-splitting rumble, the area where Wu Fengzi and Wu Lingzi originally stood split in two parts and turned into a bottomless ravine!
The Sacred Fusang Tree suddenly moved without a sound, raining streaks of chain-like golden flames. Only then was the beam of sword qi obliterated.
Wu Fengzi and Wu Lingzi both broke into cold sweat.
What a terrifying sword!
That sort of supreme and unbelievable strength was definitely not something that a young man who had just reached the Big Saint Stage could possibly possess.
Wu Hengtian and the other Golden Crow Clan experts all widened their eyes. The great dao aura contained within the sword made their minds feel like they were collapsing!
Before this, the kid only had the chance to kill Wu Yazi because he had the help of the No-Nonsense Bow.
But now, the evil creature had been re-suppressed, so who was secretly helping the kid?
This unknown struck them all dumb.
It was at this moment that Lin Xun raised his head slightly and said aloud, “The soul of this tree is clearly gone, yet it still possesses such divine power. It indeed lives up to the name of one of the Four Ancient Sacred Trees.”
Of course, those words did not come from Lin Xun.
But that was unimportant.
“This kid is an evil monster! Let’s take him down together!”
“Remember, don’t leave the vicinity of the Sacred Fusang Tree!”
“Kill!”
Wu Fengzi and Wu Lingzi both bellowed, their eyes menacing, expressions cold as ice and their killing intent was so strong that it swept the area. They all knew that they must not underestimate the strange power within Lin Xun.
The area and the surroundings were filled with various divine lights, and rare treasures were flying up.
Everyone, including Wu Hengtian, launched into action. A barrage of weapons, dao arts and treasures were all aimed at Lin Xun.
With a boom, the world seemed to have been blasted open, mighty attacks erupted in a highly concentrated manner and spilled into the mountains and rivers like a volcano.
Lin Xun did not dodge or block the storm of attacks coming at him. He glowed and a wave of obscure power transformed into a divine halo that enveloped his body, making him invulnerable to all forces.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, the Abi Sword buzzed and unleashed thousands of sword shadows, each flowing with jet-black light like eternal night. Sharp and clear clangs rang incessantly in the air.
Then, they simultaneously swept out!
They easily pierced the void with their unrivaled sharpness, leaving multiple holes and a series of sword slashes in the space. Unstoppable, they instantly slashed right through dozens of cultivators. Shrill, horrible screams filled the air.
“Ah….”
“No!”
Each one of the sword shadows were frighteningly sharp and fierce, piercing through throats, faces, skulls, stomachs, and hearts. Scarlet blood sputtered from the wounds like fireworks.
And when sword qi came slashing down, cultivators were directly slaughtered and obliterated.
This horrifying scene would send both the body and soul trembling with fear.
“Fire spirit conceal the world!”
Wu Fengzi shouted, and a golden flaming light screen rose in front of the Sacred Fusang Tree as a barrier to block off the outside world, like a golden heavenly wall. Multiple divine chains of law and order rippled on the light screen.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Those sword shadows were finally blocked. But when the Golden Crow Clan counted the number of people left, they found that one sword strike had taken out three of their Big Saints and five True Saints! The heavy losses almost drove them all mad.
“Rise!”
Splendid purple light roamed about as Wu Fengzi brought out a sheet of purple animal skin and turned it into a magnificent purple blade in midair.
The blade was inscribed with numerous ancient totems and surrounded with wisps of aura belonging to the quasi-Emperor Stage.
Unquestionably, it was a treasure left by a quasi-Emperor!
Shua!
The purple blade suddenly slashed through the air with earthshaking force and purple qi quaked the sky.
Lin Xun swung the Abi Sword in a slashing stroke and the body of the sword emitted a black light. Then, with a loud collision noise, the oncoming purple blade was severed like tofu and reduced to a shower of light.
“That…”
Wu Fengzi’s countenance changed. Everyone else was also chilled to the core. That kid has such frightening power. Who is secretly helping him?
That purple blade was a true treasure. It was left behind by a quasi-Emperor warrior of the Golden Crow Clan before he went to the Great Emperor Pass. Its terrifying destructive power could kill even Saint-Kings.
But it was crushed and destroyed like that!
This indicated that the power Lin Xun possessed now had to be at least at the quasi-Emperor level!
“Kill!”
Wu Fengzi, Wu Lingzi, and the others were all increasingly afraid to leave the vicinity of the Sacred Fusang Tree. They attacked with all their strength, sending shudders through the earth.
At the same time, waves upon waves of ancient forbidden forces were activated, rising from the ground. Peculiar symbols flashed, and dao runes frantically circulated.
They had no way out!
If they failed to protect the Sacred Fusang Tree then Sunset Current Valley was no different from existing in name only.
Therefore, they all began to fight with their lives.
“Still too weak.”
Lin Xun stepped forward, holding the Abi Sword casually. His expression was aloof and cold as snow.
As he moved forward, endless sword qi shot up, crisscrossed in the air, and slashed downwards.
Boom!
Wherever the sword qi passed, dao arts were crushed and treasures were shattered, like they were unstoppable and invincible.
That ancient forbidden forces had been standing for countless years ever since they were set up by the sages of the Golden Crow Clan. They could block a full-power attack of a quasi-Emperor, but as Lin Xun continued to march forward, they collapsed one after another like shattered glass.
“What?! Even the great array of the clan can’t stop him!”
“Who is he? Could it be that an Emperor is helping him in the shadows?”
Wu Fengzi and the others were all panic-stricken.
Rumble!
Finally, the last forbidden array was broken through. Light poured down like a tide, flooding the entire world with bright and dazzling light.
In front of the Sacred Fusang Tree, Wu Fengzi and others felt a faint feeling and almost coughed up blood.
The walls of forbidden arrays had protected the Golden Crow Clan for countless years, but now every last of them had been wiped out!
Shua!
Lin Xun swung the sword and charged straight towards the Sacred Fusang Tree.
A great battle broke out. Divine light beamed everywhere, and the Abi Sword was like the open door of hell, possessing the strength to kill everyone.
Lin Xun did not consume much of his strength, because everything was controlled by the power of ‘Xi.’ but even so, he was astounded.
How strong is Xi?
It should be noted that this was just a part of her power. Her true self had not shown up!
The Sacred Fusang Tree swayed violently, and its leaves that were as bright as the sun poured out a tidal wave of flaming law power to block Lin Xun’s fierce attack.
Sword qi roared and crushed countless divine golden flames, causing the Sacred Fusang Tree to shake violently as if it was about to collapse.
Lin Xun’s invincible and superior stance made him look like a peerless sword master!
Wu Fengzi and the others all went pale with fear and panic.
“Quickly, bring out the ancestor decree! We can’t let him destroy the Sacred Fusang Tree. Otherwise, it will be the end of our Golden Crow Lineage!” Wu Fengzi roared, looking grave.
Wu Hengtian hesitated. “The ancestor decree can’t be used unless in a critical juncture of life and death. Moreover, once activated, it will consume the majority of power of the Sacred Fusang Tree and the evil creature will very likely escape from prison...”
“Idiot, if we don’t fight now, we will be finished when that little bastard comes and kills us!” Wu Fengzi roared.
Wu Hengtian gritted his teeth and made a decision.
His expression turned solemn and respectful as he took out an ancient scroll and held it with both hands. Then, he chanted a series of obscure and complex secret spells.
Wu Fengzi, Wu Lingzi, and other Golden Crow Clan experts also repeated the chant with extremely solemn expressions.
As the sealed scroll slowly unfolded, a terrifying aura rushed forth. A magnificent divine aura erupted in the area and the entire area was ablaze with light. It was as though an Emperor had been born.
The scroll was imprinted with Emperor Dao symbols. They were like the transformation of the great dao. The light and aura around each one was so terrifying that it blurred their appearance.
Wu Fengzi and the others trembled all over. Even their spirits were shaking. The supreme power in the decree was so strong that even their bodies and minds were about to break down!
“A decree written with an Emperor will? That’s right. Even if an ancient and long-established clan does not have an Emperor watching over them, it should still have the support to stand to this day. This decree may be what they relied on.”
Lin Xun showed a hint of surprise and quickly regained his composure.
He halted his attacks and put his hands behind to watch, as if thankful the battle was this interesting.
Finally, Wu Hengtian recited a long and complicated cryptic sentence. The decree spread out and floated into the void. Each word sparked brilliantly like gemstones. Then, a supreme Emperor aura surged into the sky.
Almost at the same time, the decree absorbed the millions of golden divine flames shedded by the Sacred Fusang Tree.
Following that, the aura around the decree grew more and more terrifying, sending the entire world into a state of mourning, as if bowing to a new Emperor!
Seeing this, Wu Fengzi suddenly shifted his gaze over to Lin Xun in the distance. His expression turned sinister and menacing and his voice was loaded with killing intent. “Little bastard, it doesn’t matter who is helping you. You will still die!”
