Ridiculous?
Bai Qian, Yu Xi, Yao Li and the others all stared at Lin Xun with a cold expression. It seemed like he still hadn’t figured out his situation yet!
“His Majesty once said that Fellow Daoist Lin is an extraordinary person and should be treated with respect. We hope that we won’t have to turn against Fellow Daoist Lin because of this.”
Wanyin’s expression already turned icy.
She stared into the distance and continued, “What’s more, Fellow Daoist Lin’s two friends are both battling right now. If another fight breaks out, then...the consequences will be unpredictable.”
Everyone inhaled sharply. Those words were said indifferently, but everyone could feel the threat and deeper meaning within them.
A’lu and Yuan Fatian were embroiled in a battle, while Jin Duyi and Little Golden Winged Dapeng King were in a fierce fight, unable to divert their attention elsewhere for a second.
If Wanyin and the others joined in, how could Lin Xun turn the tide alone?
The threat was ruthless!
“Do you think you guys are capable of that?”
Unexpectedly, Lin Xun swept a disdainful glance over everyone.
His dormant, meditative lifestyle in the past half a year had stabilized and elevated his dao path to a high level. His strength was no longer like before, and he would not flinch back in fear no matter how many opponents he was facing.
“Arrogant!” Bai Qian scoffed coldly.
Half a year ago, he had lost at the hands of Lin Xun, but over the past six months, his strength had been transformed. Additionally, he obtained some fortune in the True Dragon’s Lair that gave him the confidence to face Lin Xun once again.
“Fellow Daoist Lin Xun, as long as you hand over the God-Devourer Insect, we promise not to make things difficult for you. Why are you so stubborn?” Yu Xi sighed softly.
“Out of respect for His Majesty Imperial Son, we do not want to become enemies with you, so please do as we requested.” Yao Li’s voice was cold and delicate.
“Hand it over.”
Yan Shan and Yan Hai ordered simultaneously. Their succinct words added to the solemn and murderous looks on their faces.
“Fellow Daoist Lin, even if you don’t think about yourself, you should consider your two friends. What’s more, if we indeed have malicious intent then we would have taken action already and not been trying to persuade you. Please Fellow Daoist Lin, think again.” Wanyin also spoke out, her expression serious, as if she was issuing an ultimatum.
“This is nothing more than robbery, so why are you pretending to have good intentions?” Lin Xun looked at them with disgust.
In truth, his murderous intent had already been ignited. Little Silver was raised by him alone and treated just like his family, so how could he give him up?
Those people were after Little Silver! This had already crossed the line!
But the lineup of opponents was undeniably terrifying, enough to make any cultivator in the Upper Nine Realms feel a sense of fear.
However, ever since Lin Xun embarked on the cultivation path, he had been fighting nonstop, relying on his perseverance and strength to advance triumphantly. When had he ever been afraid of any threats?
Even if there was ambush on all sides, even if everyone in the world was his enemy, so what?
He would suppress them all by himself!

Boom!
He made a move, eager to wash away the shame and humiliation of being defeated by Lin Xun last time. He swiftly folded his hands in a hand seal.
A blinding bolt of lightning shot out from him, filled with a terrifying murderous aura like a spear of death, aiming straight at Lin Xun.
The surrounding space tore apart with an ear splitting explosion.
In the distance, everyone was aghast. They could sense the power and terror of that blow even from afar.
Straight away, Bai Qian demonstrated the mighty destructive power of the White Tiger Lineage, which was far stronger than imagined.
“How dare a defeated opponent try to show off in front of me?”
Lin Xun stood unfazed with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with a cold indifference. An invisible grand dao power rose around him and transformed into an abyss-like phenomenon.
Boom!
The lightning that was as thick as a tree trunk struck in front of Lin Xun, but it dissipated without a trace like a clay ox sinking into the sea.
Lin Xun did not move a single jot, only his silky black hair fluttered in the wind.
Wanyin, Yu Xi, Yao Li and the others all tensed up and assumed solemn expressions.
No wonder they dispatched so many people in this operation. Demon God Lin is indeed frighteningly powerful.
Everyone in the distance was dumbfounded.
Recently, many people had come to Flying Star Mountain to challenge Lin Xun, but he never showed himself once, which made many think that it was a sign of fear and concession.
Only now did they understand that Demon God Lin, who had been dormant for half a year, had become more terrifying than before!
He looked simple, plain, and ordinary, but in truth, his combat power had long reached an unfathomable state!
“I will give you all one last chance. Retreat right now or I will wipe out everyone even if Shaohao comes!” Lin Xun uttered coldly.
But his warning was seen as a huge provocation and made a cold intent flashed across the faces of Wanyin and the others.
“Kill!”
Bai Qian roared as he swung a platinum halberd through the air, creating a storm.
Rumble!
Raging killing intent visibly gathered around the great halberd, producing chilling visions such as howling ghosts and the sinking sun and moon.
The power of that strike astonished everyone to the point that their souls almost left their bodies.
The descendant of the white tiger was indeed comparable to the god of death. The power he unleashed at the perfect seventh longevity tribulation stage was beyond terrifying.
“It seems you all made a decision.”
Suddenly, Lin Xun’s eyes flashed with murderous intent.
“Then today, let me tell you what it means to bring humiliation to yourself!”
As Lin Xun finished speaking, a slash of brightness as white as snow burst from him, shooting straight up to the sky.
It was like a white rainbow piercing the sun, radiating incomparable sharpness.
Boom!
The Broken Blade and the platinum halberd collided with a deafening rumble. The surrounding space shattered and turned to dust.
Many cultivators’ spirit sense throbbed with unbearable pain, and they could not see what happened afterwards.
“Destroy!”
Lin Xun’s clothes and black hair whipped about, and his originally ordinary and plain aura had been replaced by a frightening, intimidating one.
It was as though he had transformed into a demon god!
The aura and power that surrounded him crushed all nearby clouds. Even the sun and sky seemed to dim in his presence. Only his majestic figure stood like an immortal.
“Kill!”
Bai Qian’s white hair danced wildly as murderous aura raged around him. With a slashing stroke, the platinum halberd again clashed with Broken Blade.
However, with a boom, the platinum halberd rebounded and almost jerked out of his grip. He stumbled and grimaced from the numbing pain in his arm.
His expression instantly turned grave.
Bang!
After another fierce exchange, Bai Qian let out a muffled grunt, realizing that he was inferior to Lin Xun in terms of strength and was at a disadvantage.
“Slash!”
Lin Xun flicked his sleeve, and Broken Blade produced a clear cry before it slashed through the air with a speed as illusory as a streak of light, like a chain ripping apart space.
Bai Qian’s face blanched, and he frantically dodged.
“Now!”
Almost at the same time, Yu Xi, who sensed that Bai Qian was in an extremely bad situation, took action. With a flick of her fair, pretty hand, an azure seal soared upwards and a lotus bloomed, giving people a sense of perfection, brightness, and sacredness.
But in contrast, the brilliance released from the seal was terrifying and reeked of blood, like slashes of blood-colored rainbows obstructing the Broken Blade.
Boom!
However, the blood-colored rainbows were shredded like rotten cloth in an instant and propelled backwards with the seal.
Yu Xi’s pretty face paled, and she reeled a few steps, horrified.
Only when she actually faced off against Lin Xun did she realize his power was so terrifying and immense. It was like a vast ocean, with the potential of causing landslides and tsunamis.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt should be noted that she was at the seventh longevity tribulation stage, and she possessed astonishing talents. She trumped every ordinary cultivator on the Genius Gold Rankings.
But Lin Xun countered her attack with ease.
However, her move did help Bai Qian find a chance to breathe and escape from the disadvantaged situation.
“Kill!”
Bai Qian and Yu Xi worked together, attacking with the platinum halberd and azure seal respectively. The Broken Blade teetered back unsteadily.
At the same time—
With a swoosh, Yao Li disappeared with a flash. The speed was frightening.
The next second, a figure stood in front of Lin Xun, opening his mouth and launching a three-inch silver sword straight for Lin Xun’s throat.
It was almost impossible to describe the blow.
It was too fast, too fierce, and too unexpected. It released a violent and wild aura that swept the world.
Wind Shadow Thorn!
This was Yao Li’s innate power. As swift as the wind, and as formless and uncapturable as the shadow, it was akin to an attack of a ghost. Just the power it contained was strong enough to crush an opponent’s spirit and fighting spirit!
“Hmph!” Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged, but his fist glowed as bright and dazzling as a sapphire and blasted forward just as the attack was a hair’s breadth away.
Boom!
The void exploded and collapsed.
That splendid fist power blocked the three-inch flying sword like a solid wall before shattering it into fragments with an ear-piercing bang!
With a pff, Yao Li coughed up blood, qi and blood pulsing frantically around him. He retreated without hesitation.
“How could he be this strong? That’s the Flying Soul Sword that I refined with divine materials, but it was actually blocked! No wonder he’s called a Demon God.” Yao Li was aghast.
He believed that there would not be much difference in strength between Lin Xun and him given that they were at the same cultivation level. But he was wrong.
Bang!
At the same time, a loud noise resounded in the distance.
The platinum halberd and azure seal that were working together to take down the Broken Blade were both split open, whimpering incessantly.
In particular, Yu Xi was wounded from the impact of the cut left on the azure seal. She released a muffled grunt.
As for Bai Qian, he was still trembling. The collision with the Broken Blade was as fierce as being struck by a sacred mountain. He almost coughed up blood from the terrifying impact.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye at an astonishing speed.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun managed to counter the blows of three powerful and fierce characters!
His superior strength turned the faces of Wanyin and the brothers Yan Shan and Yan Hai an ashen color.
In the distance, the spectators had yet to react...
Without a doubt, neither Bai Qian, Yu Xi, or Yao Li were a match for Lin Xun!
“Together!”
Bai Qian and the others glanced at one another and unhesitatingly reacted by simultaneously charging forward. They all knew that if they wanted to kill Lin Xun, they had to combine their strengths.
