Chapter 976 Old Monster Mo Xi

When Xing Yitian fled, his servants all collapsed from fright. After knowing that the tables had turned, they all tried to flee.

Lin Xun had no desire to let bygones be bygones. He activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step to its full potential and pursued them. Screams echoed unceasingly, and then after a short while, all of the servants had been slaughtered.

However, Lin Xun still felt somewhat stifled within his heart. Xing Yitian hadn’t died and slaughtering his servants didn't give him much of a sense of accomplishment.

Despite that, everyone who was observing from a distance was still incredibly shocked. After all, Xing Yitian was considered to be a powerful prodigy among the younger generation in East Victory World and was quite famous. Yet he had been completely suppressed by this youth!

“What, are you guys loitering around in hopes of stealing some treasure?”

Lin Xun’s black eyes were chilly as he gazed over everyone. He did not bother to try to hide his overflowing killing intent.

Earlier, he had been joyfully excavating king-grade herbs at the bottom of the lake. Right when he was in the groove, he had been interrupted by Xing Yitian, which completely ruined the mood for him.

Crash~

The other cultivators blanched, and the vast majority of them sped away.

They had just witnessed the intense fight from earlier, which allowed them to understand Lin Xun’s terror. At this time, who would dare try to provoke him?

Even some half-step king experts had frightened looks. Although it was a bit humiliating being threatened by someone from the younger generation, they still ended up keeping a check on their egos in the end.

They had no choice. After all, they were aware that the youngsters who had stepped onto the supreme path were more than able to fight people at a cultivation level above them!

Now, the entire silver lake had been blown to smithereens. The lake bottom was dry and full of cracks, and the giant Star Debris Meteorite had also been smashed to pieces during the fighting.

Lin Xun could only sigh at this. At least he had been able to excavate three king-grade herbs, the Yin Yang Sapling, Flame Grass, and golden fungus plant.

Furthermore, Little Silver also encountered a star stone that helped him advance to the next stage. Thus, the gains he had experienced this time were quite good.

However, just when Lin Xun was about to leave this place, a frightful aura appeared from the distance and was traveling closer to him.

“Youngster, was the opportunity found at this lake bottom taken by you?” asked an old man who had dark green hair. Although he had a human shape, it was obvious he wasn’t human.

On his forehead was a bright white horn that was about half a foot long. In addition, his eyes were an amber color and glittered with a beast-like light.

“Old Monster Mo Xi!” exclaimed a few experts who had yet to leave. They figured out the identity of the withered old man immediately.

This area of the Boundary River was by the Ancient Blue Province of the East Victory World. The place was quite vast and filled with many different powers.

Among them, the most famous was the old orthodoxy, Heaven Axis Holy Land.

Old Monster Mo Xi had come from the Ancient Blue Province and had broken through to the king stage over ten years ago. He was considered a ‘new king’ among experts.

This old monster was not a simple fellow. In fact, he had an irritable and ruthless personality and had slaughtered many experts and caused blood feuds in the past.

After reaching the king stage, he actually restrained himself more and even took the initiative to draw close to Heaven Axis Holy Land. He wished to enter the sect and find a home for himself.

The fact that a king-level expert had voluntarily defected to a sect naturally caused a huge sensation. In the Ancient Blue Province, the rumors went wild, and it was said that Heaven Axis Holy Land had already shown their approval. Apparently, they were planning on bringing in Old Monster Mo Xi into the sect.

Therefore, once everyone saw Old Monster Mo Xi show up, a lot of them were surprised and revealed nervous expressions.

After all, he was a true king-level expert!

The heavens and earth shuddered, and the atmosphere became repressed as it was enveloped by the terrible might of a king-level expert.

Once Old Monster Mo Xi appeared, his beady golden eyes fixed on Lin Xun along with the full might of his aura. Everyone found it hard to breathe. This youngster was screwed!

The other experts muttered inwardly, and some couldn’t help feeling delighted by the situation. Once a king-level expert appeared, the ending was ordained!

“How can it be like this…” Kou Xing and the others felt a chill run through them. Who would have thought that a king-level expert would appear in the end?!

Kings stood above the five levels of cultivation, so they were truly at the summit and were fearsome existences.

Even though Old Monster Mo Xi was considered a ‘new king’ and hadn’t grown fully into the king-level powers, he was still a true king-level expert. Half-step kings were no comparison to him.

“Give me your treasures, and I’ll let you leave. Otherwise, you’re going to die!” Old MOnster Mo Xi was very calm as he spoke as if he regarded Lin Xun as an ant.

At his level, there was no need for him to fear a youngster at the Cyclic Derivation stage.

“Ah, such arrogance. Are you sure you want to make me your enemy?”

Everyone was surprised that Lin Xun was completely unafraid even in this situation. His expression was calm, and he acted as if he was talking to a normal person.

Everyone couldn’t help but sigh. Being able to walk the supreme path wasn’t for everyone. Just this kind of boldness wasn’t something that everyone had the guts to have.

“Oh!” Old Monster Mo Xi was surprised and then revealed a disdainful smile. “Young Man, do you know what the king-level is? It means it doesn’t matter who you are, or what’s your background, you’ll have to die if you disobey me!”

Bang!

As he spoke, his aura soared into the air, parting the clouds. In the vicinity, animals cried in terror as the surroundings crumbled into dust. This kind of pressure at the king-level was terrifying to the extreme.

Under these circumstances, Lin Xun was still able to endure the pressure, but he had to use all of his cultivation power to do so.

“Eh? You can actually resist?” Old Monster Mo Xi was startled for a moment. In the past, he simply had to reveal some pressure, and it would make everyone under the king-level prostrate before him.

But now, his opponent was a mere youngster at the Cyclic Derivation Stage, yet he wasn’t being cowed at all. Instead, he looked as if it was nothing special.

“Hmph, no wonder you’re so arrogant. Apparently, you’re a gifted young fellow, but in my eyes, all geniuses below the king stage are the same. In the end, you have no power against me and are a mere slab of meat on the chopping board. I can kill you as I please!”

Old Monster Mo Xi coldly huffed as a loud thunderclap resounded in the sky. This startled and awed the distant experts, causing their ears to buzz. It was so deafening that they almost fell to the ground.

His aura became more formidable, and he now resembled a mighty king overlooking his domain as his power smashed down!

At the same time, Lin Xun felt the pressure on him doubling, but he was not afraid and was instead observing the new situation.

In the past, he had been targeted before by king-level experts and had even been chased after by two king-level experts from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan.

At that time, he had no power to resist and couldn't even have a chance to try. All he could do was use the Grand Universe Ark to flee for his life.

But the situation was different now. He at least could stand tall before a king-level expert and not be forced to his knees!

His body had not yet been suppressed, his spirit and physique could still struggle longer, and he hadn’t lost the ability to fight back!

This was a type of progress, and it was actually a big sign!

“A king like you is nothing!” Then Lin Xun smiled with a confident expression.

He also knew that his opponent had just recently stepped into the king-stage, so he was definitely less powerful than the other old king-level experts.

Regardless, he was still a king!

The fact that he was able to withstand his opponent’s stifling aura made Lin Xun feel quite pleased with himself.

Hiss!

Everyone present took in a deep breath out of surprise. No one could have predicted that Lin Xun would still be this unyielding and uncompromising in this situation.

As for Old Monster Mo Xi, his expression turned cold. A hint of loathing and killing intent appeared on his brows.

“Rumor has it that the great age is coming and that younger heaven prides will lead the way, causing the tides of the Ancient Wasteland Domain to change. But in my opinion, this is a hilarious way of thinking. If that’s truly the case, then are people like me in the king-stage chopped liver?”

As Old Monster Mo Xi spoke, he took a step forward. With every step, the heavens howled, and the great dao resonated. A few experts felt as if lightning had struck their hearts and felt so unwell that they almost vomited out blood.

“I’m afraid I’m going to have to tell you, that when the great age draws near, if the saints don’t come, then the ones who will truly make a mark are king-level experts like me!

“Now, I will use this opportunity to prove that, in front of me, you are merely an insect that I am free to squish as I please!”

After he finished, Old Monster Mo Xi used a hand to grab out, and an incorporeal giant hand shadow appeared in the air as it headed towards Lin Xun ferociously. 

The force contained within that hand was too terrifying. Dao sound exploded while dao light burst forth. Every finger was imbued with the lines of the dao, and there was an aura of laws lingering around it.

From a distance, all of the observing experts felt as if Judgement Day was descending and felt despair within their hearts.

This was the king stage!

In the eyes of other people, Lin Xun had no way to escape and was destined to be a bug being squished to death.

But what followed left everyone stupefied, and their jaws almost fell open.

Bang!

All they could see was that in Lin Xun’s palm was a small jade bottle about a few inches tall. It suddenly erupted with divine flames that covered the entire sky.

The Yi Wood Azure Flame, the Luminous White Gold Flame, Purified Water Black Flame, Earth Yellow Flame, and the Jewel Sun Red Flame…five types of divine flame emerged in a bright and resplendent manner. It resembled the heavens falling down in a river and sweeping everything away.

Caught off guard, Old Monster Mo Xi was submerged completely under the torrent, and all of his hair and clothes had been burnt off. He was in quite a sorry state.

Earlier he had been an arrogant king looking down at everyone, viewing Lin Xun as a mere ant that could be snatched whenever he wanted. He had wanted to stomp the youngster to death, so he had never expected this kind of peak humiliation.

Who would have thought that the roles would be reversed in the blink of an eye?!

Lin Xun hadn’t been crushed to death. Instead, Old Monster Mo Xi had been burnt until he cried out in pain, losing all of his majestic aura as a king-level expert. In fact, he looked more comical and funny right now.

Furthermore, there was the slight smell of roasted meat wafting around…

When they looked at Old Monster Mo Xi again, they noticed that his skin and flesh had been burnt to a crisp, which astonished them. The five divine flames were too frightening and powerful.

“You little brat, you’re asking for death!” Old Monster Mo Xi howled furiously, alarming everyone within a large radius.

Then all people could see was the sea of fire exploding loudly as Old Monster Mo Xi burst through. Although all of his hair had been burnt away, making him look quite bad, the injuries were still quite light and the flames were unable to truly harm him.

However…

It was too humiliating!

A king-level expert had actually been broiled until he became a complete mess, with bits of charcoal hanging all over him. If this came out to the public, it’d be too embarrassing.

“Die!” He rushed forward in an attempt to kill Lin Xun as soon as possible.

But Lin Xun had already made preparations and had put away the Dao Immeasurable Bottle. He activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step and charged toward the edge of the lake, where the king-level forbidden array was hiding.

Once Old Monster Mo Xi chased after him, he discovered that he could no longer discover any traces of Lin Xun. 

“An array?”

At this time, the Four Divisions King Array hadn’t been activated, so there was no tell-tale aura. All he could sense was that there was something covering the heavens and earth in the area.

Consequently, Old Monster Mo Xi only hesitated for a moment before charging in.
