Chapter 1082 Bury the Enemies in this Sea
Who did they think he was!?
A piece of grass?
Some weak prey?
An ant that can be trampled on at will?
Lin Xun wasn’t stupid as he was well aware of this reality.
In the eyes of those towering ancient dao lineages, no matter how dazzling he was, a lone person with no clan or sect backing him didn’t have much of a deterrent after all.
In the past, more than a few amazing and talented people had been trampled and suppressed by the ancient clans system due to their humble origins.
Some resisted, but most of them ended up dying with resentment and hatred.
It was far too difficult to fight against the ancient dao clans on one’s own!
But knowing this did not mean that Lin Xun would bow down! If he did, he wouldn’t be Lin Xun.
At the moment, he stood on a small island and coldly scanned the crowd on the distant seashore. As he recalled all the deadly pursuits against him since entering the Ancient Wasteland Domain, the anger and hatred in his heart burned uncontrollably.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Xun then withdrew his gaze.
The Star Chess Sea was covered by a restrictive system. Looking from the outside, one would only see starlight filling the sky and an archipelago that resembled a chessboard.
Standing in it was akin to hiding under the restrictive fluctuations of a large formation. The outside world was unable to see Lin Xun at all.
Whoosh!
Lin Xun immediately took action.
Riding the stars, his figure flashed like a streak of light as he shuttled from island to island while his fingers made technique gestures from time to time.
With a rustle, a shocking sight appeared. The hazy glow of the star ocean suddenly tumbled and turned. Obscure restrictive fluctuations also followed and spread out with Lin Xun as the center.
When he finally stopped after a while, he was standing on a lonely island with his forehead drenched in sweat, appearing to have used a great amount of energy.
“This Zhoutian Star Dipper Array is too terrifying, it took all of my energy to barely utilize less than one-thousandth of its power, but…” Lin Xun sat cross-legged on the ground and took a deep breath, his eyes chilling. “It’s enough!”
In his mind, the Zhoutian Star Dipper Diagram slowly operated, emitting strange fluctuations. This was what gave Lin Xun confidence.
……
“Huh?!”, someone on the shore suddenly shouted out in alarm. “Look! The restrictive power on Star Chess Sea is rapidly vanishing!”
Hearing this, the experts of the ancient clans also noticed this phenomenon, and their eyes lit up.
The dream-like starry blanket on Star Chess Sea was receding like a tide at an astonishing speed, revealing the silvery water surface and strangely shaped islands.
Without the starlight obscuring it, the vast and clear water of Star Chess Sea was revealed.
“Even that horrifying and oppressive restriction has disappeared!” Ma Yuanqing’s spirit lifted, and a sense of relief washed all over his body.
“It has indeed disappeared.”
“That’s a great thing!”
“But how did such a change occur?”
“That’s not important, what’s important is that the restrictive power of Star Chess Sea can no longer pose a threat to us!”
Shang Wenjin of the Longevity Land, Yan Yunzi of Azure Sea Sect, Xiao Jinghong of Spirit Treasure Holy Land, and Gou Yangxiu of Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan…
The old monsters were the first to notice the big change in Star Chess Sea’s restrictive fluctuations, and all of them revealed expressions of delight.
The reason why they had decided to wait on the shore, not daring to enter Star Chess Sea, was precisely due to the extremely terrifying restrictive power covering it.
Even a Saint would most likely be lost and trapped forever if they mistakenly entered it.
Therefore, they had to wait outside in order to deal with Lin Xun.
But it was different now!
“Well now, that little bastard Lin Xun can’t hide in Star Chess Sea even if he wants to!” Gou Yanzhen exclaimed in joy.
Everyone else also came to their senses, and their gazes flickered.
Whoosh!
A gray-robed elder from Heaven Axis Holy Land suddenly shot out from the crowd, flying toward Star Chess Sea.
It was Hou Tianzhong, an old monster who had just stepped into the first longevity tribulation King stage.
“He wants to beat us to it and kill Lin Xun first? In his dreams!” A scarlet-robed, bearded middle-aged man of Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan laughed coldly as his figure flew up like a blood-colored torrent and raced towards Star Chess Sea.
“Move!”
“Go!”
“You all stay here. The Star Chess Sea has just changed drastically, even though the restrictive power has disappeared, there’s no guarantee that it’s free of dangers.”
One King-stage expert rushed towards Star Chess Sea after another while the rest stayed on the shore and waited for their news due to safety concerns.
“Demon God Lin is dead for sure this time!”
Whether it was Kong Ling, Yu Lingkong, Li Qingping, or Gou Yanzhen, they were all very confident in the result and calmly waited as they inwardly looked forward to it.
With the King experts striking, backed up by saint treasures and King-level forbidden techniques at that, killing him Lin Xun would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken. There was no need to worry at all.
The only thing that they needed to care about was which force would be the one to kill Lin Xun.
“Once he is wiped out, we’ll be rid of a potential scourge and can just rest easy.” Ma Yuanqing smiled.
“Since ancient times, there has never been anyone who dared to stand alone against ancient dao lineages. Even if there was, they were all exterminated. It was like that before, and it’s like that today. Lin Xun must die,” commented Yan Yunzi with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.
“I’m afraid this guy is only going to become the shortest-lived number one little giant in history. So what if he’s a supreme heaven pride? We can destroy him with the flip of a hand.” Shang Wenjin’s tone was soft and slow, but it carried an air of superiority.
……
Far into Star Chess Sea.
Lin Xun was standing on an island, his expression calm, and his eyes cold.
Today, he was alone with a plan to bury his enemies in this sea!
“Here they are.”
Lin Xun looked up. In the far distance, a horrifying King-stage pressure spread out, giving rise to tall waves.
It was an old man dressed in gray from Heaven Axis Holy Land who was named Hou Tianzhong.
“You really are hiding here, little rascal!”
Hou Tianzhong was approaching in a violent manner. His terrifying pressure covered the sky as he looked down at the distant Lin Xun from high above like a sovereign.
“Hiding? You’re wrong, I’m waiting for you guys,” said Lin Xun aloofly. His clothes fluttered as he stood tall and upright like a pine tree, treating the King-stage pressure as if it was nothing.
Hou Tianzhong had intended to make the first move and kill Lin Xun so that he wouldn’t have to compete over it with the others, but Lin Xun’s manner made him hesitant.
Lin Xun was too calm. He was not like a sitting duck at all, it was really like he was waiting for them.
“Waiting for us? You think you can act without a care just because you have a saint treasure and a King-level forbidden array?” Hou Tianzhong’s gaze was dark and icy as killing intent raged inside him. He tested Lin Xun, “I’m not afraid to tell you that all of this is useless!”
“You’re too noisy, you’ll be the first to die at my hands later,” said Lin Xun casually.
“You’re seeking death!”
Hou Tianzhong was unable to contain his rage anymore. With a wave of his sleeve, a stretch of silky light sliced through the air toward Lin Xun.
“Hmph! If he is going to die, then he will die at the hands of this King!”
A thunderous shout echoed right at that moment, alongside it was a huge, blood-red hand that came out of nowhere and crushed the silky light. The hand’s momentum did not decrease as it pressed down upon Lin Xun.
However, the hand only made it halfway through when a terrifying sword qi chopped it to pieces. With a rumble, it exploded into a rain of light.
Then, two figures emerged in two different directions.
On the east side was the bearded middle-aged man dressed in a scarlet robe. His name was Gou Yangyuan, and it was he who had sent out the hand.
In the west was a gray-haired, white-robed youth. Despite his young appearance, he was an old monster from the Omega Sword Sect named Liu Jiankun. It was his sword that chopped Gou Yangyuan’s blood-colored hand.
“Gentlemen, you can leave him to me.” Liu Jiankun looked proud and aloof. His words were casual but said in an unquestionable tone.
“Arrogant! This is not your Omega Sword Sect!” Hou Tianzhong coldly said, “I advise you to restrain yourself!”
Gou Yangyuan grinned morosely, “What do you think you are, Liu Jiankun, to dare say such big words? I will be the one to kill him today!”
As the three faced off, their King-stage auras collided and plunged the area into a terrifying and depressing atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun was ignored.
To them, he was already a bird in a cage, a turtle in a jar, unable to escape death. The main matter was who would be the one to kill him.
Very soon, several more King-stage monsters appeared and joined the competition. They all refused to back down and just stood there restraining each other.
As for Lin Xun, he was still ignored.
They were like a group of hunters who had jointly discovered their prey, so were fighting for the right to kill it. No one wanted to give in while the prey stood there having no place to hide.
“You all might as well spill it, you just want his saint treasure, do you not? How about we kill him first, and then compete for the treasure with our strengths?” suggested Liu Jiankun.
“That could do.” Some of them nodded.
“Hmph, this fellow has a saint treasure and a King-level forbidden array, killing him won’t be easy. I say we get straight to it, and whoever kills him can take all of his possessions!” said Hou Tianzhong with a cold gaze.
“Have you guys finished?” Lin Xun, in the middle of the encirclement, suddenly opened his mouth. His eyes became increasingly icy as they swept over the group of Kings.
He had always appeared calm and hadn’t revealed a slight change in his expression even though he was ignored as mere prey.
No one could tell that the hatred in his heart was no longer containable and could explode at any time.
The King-stage experts all frowned, unhappy to see that their prey dared to interrupt them instead of quietly waiting for death.
“In a hurry to die, little rascal? I’ll fulfill your wish!” Hou Tianzhong’s hand made a grabbing motion.
Instantly, a lightning cloud condensed, emitting a terrifying, destructive aura as it swiftly and overbearingly glided toward Lin Xun!
Upon seeing this, the other Kings did not hesitate to make their moves. They could not possibly let Hou Tianzhong beat them to it and kill Lin Xun.
Boom!
In an instant, skills were deployed without reservation. Intimidating dao arts and treasures of terrifying power came at Lin Xun from all directions.
One shot fired, and the entire field erupted. Hou Tianzhong’s strike broke the stalemate and caused a great battle to break out.
