Chapter 1715: Holy Envoy

"Abominable!"

Tao Jianxing's face distorted as his eyes reddened with rage.

It was already shameful for experts of their caliber to gang up on Lin Xun. If word of this spread, it would most certainly affect their reputations.

To make things worse, they failed to take him down despite working together. There was simply no greater humiliation than this!

The others also revealed ugly expressions.

While Lin Xun was the one who had run away, he was actually the biggest winner.

He obtained the dao scripture Treasure Refining Dao Qi, displayed godly strength while fighting against them alone, and even managed to kill Lu Ang, a pure-blood descendant of the Blood Qilin Battle Clan.

Had it not been for Sha Liuqing's interference at the critical moment, Lin Xun would have likely turned the tables on them!

"Allowing such a formidable powerhouse to escape is bound to become a huge problem in the future..."

An expert lamented, feeling increasingly frustrated.

Anyone else from the Ancient Nebula Road would at least show some reservations and wariness.

However, this wasn't the case for Lin Xun at all!

Heaven and Earth Dao Court's Yan Chunjun and Blood Qilin Battle Clan's Lu Ang were individuals with frightening status and backgrounds. Hence, no one in the Ancient Nebula Road would dare to carelessly offend them.

Despite this, they were killed by Lin Xun without the slightest shred of hesitation!

This fact alone would make anyone shiver in fear.

"Hmph, do you guys think he'll be able to leave the Kunlun Dominion alive?"

Sha Liuqing left these final words as he turned into fog and disappeared.

Several people were taken aback but quickly recovered.

Indeed, Lin Xun might be fearsome, but he was currently targeted by many experts!

Some were after his treasures while others were seeking revenge. It would be a tall task for him to survive in the unpredictable and dangerous Kunlun Dominion!

Wen Qingxue stood alone in silence for a moment before turning to leave.

The ethereal fairy-like beauty appeared calm and unfazed from start to end. Deep down, however, she understood that she had completely burned bridges with Lin Xun!

However, she wasn't worried. After all, she also had trump cards like Lin Xun.

The experts gradually departed one by one.

"I can't believe he escaped..."

Ji Qian was deeply disappointed.

"There will be a next time as long as we're in the Kunlun Dominion."

Beside him, the scholarly Meng Yi chuckled with an untroubled expression. "I'm more curious about that Holy Illumination Ancient Sect disciple. To think that one has finally appeared again after so long and is even targeting Lin Xun..."

Holy Illumination Ancient Sect!

Ji Qian's and Jiang Heng's hearts shuddered.

The Six Great Courts and the Ten Great Battle Clans were the most well-known factions in the Ancient Nebula Road.

However, few knew of the mysterious and extremely terrifying factions that also existed in its underworld.

The Holy Illumination Ancient sect was one of these factions.

It was an ancient faction that walked in the darkness and an assassination group that would fill countless cultivators with fear!

While only a handful of people would know the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect's name, there was no one who didn't know about the Holy Apostles.

Those who carried out assassinations according to the Holy Mandates were called Holy Apostles!

In the ancient era, the Holy Apostles were famous throughout the heavens and were feared by everyone.

Any expert they set their sights on would be assassinated regardless of identity or cultivation.

It was even rumored that a Holy Apostle managed to assassinate a genuine Emperor Stage existence!

These secretive and terrifying Holy Apostles belonged to the Ancient Nebula Underworld's Holy Illumination Ancient Sect.

Jiang Heng couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect destroyed after the Dao War of Emperors?"

Meng Yi's eyes gleamed as he unhurriedly answered, "That was only a rumor. A mysterious faction of the darkness like the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect isn't eradicated so easily like how shadows always exist when there is light."

As someone from the Qiongqi Battle Clan, he had read many ancient texts and learned numerous secrets about the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and the Holy Apostles.

The sect was also known as one of the Three Dark Giants of the Ancient Nebula Underworld.

In the sect, there was a Holy Punishment List which listed targets for assassination.

Meng Yi was curious to know if Lin Xun's name had been placed on the Holy Punishment List.

Surprised, Ji Qian asked, "You mean that strange guy from earlier is a Holy Apostle?"

As someone from the Imperial Ji Clan, he naturally understood how terrifying assassins like the Holy Apostle were.

"Most certainly."

Meng Yi thoughtfully said, "However, no matter how formidable the Holy Apostles are, they usually won't provoke the Six Great Courts and the Ten Great Battle Clans. It's clear that isn't the case for Lin Xun."

Jiang Heng couldn't help but ask, "How did someone from the Ancient Wasteland Domain offend the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect?"

Meng Yi answered, "The Holy Apostles only comply to the Holy Mandates. It's likely that even Lin Xun wouldn't know why or who issued the Holy Mandate..."

This was normal. In the past, many experts who were assassinated by the Holy Apostles wouldn't even know that they had been targeted.

Meng Yi flatly declared, "Regardless of who kills Lin Xun, I must obtain his Flying Immortal Tablet."

There was no compromise in his tone.

……

On that same day, news about Lin Xun singlehandedly fighting off a large group of powerhouses quickly spread throughout Treasure Refining Land, causing numerous uproars.

Due to how Lin Xun had recently caused an uproar after killing Yan Chunjun, it felt even more shocking to hear that he had also killed Lu Ang.

This most inconceivable part, however, was that despite so many Starry Sky Big Saint rankers joining forces, they not only failed to kill him but also even let him escape!

It was as if the word formidable was personally designed for him.

News about the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and the Holy Apostle also spread. Sha Liuqing's appearance in the Kunlun Dominion made many experts begin to feel fearful and wary.

Some people gloated over the situation, feeling that Lin Xun's death was only a matter of time since he was now being targeted by a Holy Apostle!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun and A'hu were hiding in a secluded cave.

Phew~

Lin Xun consumed an elixir and said, "A'hu, you are a lifesaver."

"Members of the same party shouldn't leave each other behind."

A'hu rose to her feet as she continued speaking, "Take a good rest, I'll stand guard."

Lin Xun nodded.

Although he had narrowly managed to escape without mishap, the battle had greatly drained him and left him rather exhausted.

"Initial Big Saint Stage cultivation isn't sufficient!"

After the battle, Lin Xun realized that he had to increase his strength as soon as possible.

While he wasn't afraid of anyone in a one-on-one situation, he felt a clear strain when he had to deal with multiple enemies.

Without a cultivation breakthrough, he would likely fail to suppress his opponents the next time he encountered a similar situation.

"Since I could once claim invincibility in the True Saint Stage, I should strive for the same in the Big Saint Stage!"

With a deep breath, Lin Xun began to concentrate and dao light started to circulate around him.

Nearby, A'hu silently watched Lin Xun. She knew that the battle had left him with frustration.

However, that wasn't a bad thing.

The truly strong were never afraid that their enemies would be too strong. Instead, they were afraid to have no rivals!

A'hu was certain that with Lin Xun's strong foundations, which didn't lose to any of his peers, he was bound to become even stronger in the future.

Two days later.

Lin Xun awoke from his meditation.

He silently turned his senses inward and found that his cultivation had made significant progress. However, there were still some ways to go before he could reach the intermediate Big Saint Stage.

Upon seeing Lin Xun awaken, A'hu immediately said, "I suspect that Sha Liuqing possesses an extremely mysterious movement art that can ignore all defenses and move freely through space."

She had been mulling over this issue for the past two days.

"More importantly, his movement art can evade all senses, making it impossible to guard against."

Lin Xun nodded.

He carefully recalled the details of the battle and said, "Agreed, although he may not be the strongest, his movement art makes him the most unpredictable and sneaky."

A'hu eyes glimmered with intelligence. "Such a movement art will most certainly involve the use of Spatial Grand Dao. In other words, Sha Liuqing's mastery of Spatial Grand Dao has reached an extremely frightening level."

She paused for a moment as she looked at Lin Xun. "I can think of two ways to deal with him. One is to improve your cultivation and the other is to raise your Spatial Grand Dao proficiency."

Lin Xun acknowledged with a soft grunt. It was a problem he had also been thinking about and was going to tackle next.

"The grand dao power in the Kunlun Dominion is extremely robust and solid, allowing cultivators within to more effectively comprehend the essence of the grand daos."

Lin Xun said, "My Spatial Grand Dao comprehension is only at the bare bones level and is a long way from reaching the elementary level. Hence, I plan to focus on my cultivation instead."

A'hu smiled and said, "Do you still remember the Flat Peach Tree I mentioned? A single fruit is equal to a hundred years of cultivation!"

Lin Xun's eyes shone.

A'hu said, "After two days, Treasure Refining Land will be sealed off again. We should make a move soon and venture deeper into the Kunlun Dominion to find the Flat Peach Tree."

Lin Xun agreed with a nod.

Treasure Refining Land was only the outer area of the Kunlun Dominion. The real blessings and opportunities were scattered in the depths of the Kunlun Dominion!

A'hu recalled something, causing a sliver of anticipation to emerge in her eyes. "Brother Lin, you should use this time to check out the dao scripture Treasure Refining Dao Qi."

Lin Xun was taken aback but quickly recovered.

Omm!

With a wave of his sleeve, a Treasure Refining Dao Qi appeared and transformed into a dao scripture. It exuded a sacred aura that brightened the dark cave.

Faint sounds of nature echoed in the air.

From these phenomenons, the dao scripture was undoubtedly an extraordinary Treasure Refining Dao Qi.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun summoned the Broken Blade.
