Chapter 1816: First Exchange with a Quasi-Emperor
His gaze shifted to another direction.
There stood Li Po, the elder of Sword Jade Sword Pavilion. He was fleeing frantically for his life before, but now, he had strangely come to a still.
Even his expression was without a hint of fear or panic.
“It seems like you have other plans.”
Lin Xun’s black eyes were deep and unfathomable. He did not take action right away.
Li Po smiled. “Unlike them, I’m pretty certain that you are Lin Xun.”
“What makes you so sure?” Lin Xun raised his brow.
Li Po pointed at his head. “Intuition, there are not many peerless figures in this world. Those who have made their mark have already been known throughout the Ancient Nebula Road. But you, Lin Daoyuan, seem to appear out of thin air. Given the strength you already possess at the Supreme Big Saint Stage, you should have become world-famous, but neither I nor anyone else has heard of your name before. This fact alone is already very abnormal.”“Continue,” said Lin Xun.
Li Po appeared very calm and said with a smile, “From what I know, there is a person in this world like you, whose identity should not be exposed. That is Lin Xun, who is ranked first on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings. If you two are the same person, then that explains a lot of things.”
“Anything else?” said Lin Xun.
Li Po smiled ruminatively, “Of course, I would like to express my thanks to you for helping the Star Jade Sword Pavilion by getting rid of the competition. Now, everyone knows that they died at your hands and that I am no match for you, so…”
Understanding dawned on Lin Xun and he interrupted, “So, if I die here, nobody will know the truth and you can seize all the treasures on me. Even if you leave here alive, you won’t have to worry about being targeted by other people, am I right?”
Li Po complimented, “My little friend, you have sharp eyes.”
Lin Xun asked in puzzlement, “But you know you are no match for me, so why...” His dark eyes suddenly narrowed. “I understand.”
His voice only just faded when—Shua!
In the void, a figure silently emerged, clad in a daoist robe and with a metal hat crowning his head. His kempt beard was separated into three distinct sections and he had the air of a transcendent being.
The moment Lin Xun laid eyes on him, he could tell that he was a quasi-Emperor!
He had met numerous quasi-Emperors back when he was in the Great Emperor Pass of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, so he would not be mistaken.
“It’s a little late to realize now,” said the daoist robed man leisurely. Even if he was standing casually, he exuded the majesty of a master.
“Martial Uncle.” Li Po came forward to bow his respect.
The man was none other than Li Po’s martial uncle, Cui Fu, a supreme elder of the Star Jade Sword Pavilion, an old monster at the quasi-Emperor Stage who had lived in seclusion for many years.
“No wonder you were so confident. It turns out that you already had a devious plan.” Lin Xun sighed, “Does that mean the news in the Great Yu Secret Realm has been blocked from spreading long ago?”
Li Po answered honestly with a smile, “Little friend, you have a special identity. It’s a trivial matter killing you, but if other people found out that our Star Jade Sword Pavilion has seized your treasures, then it is catastrophic. Fortunately, our Star Jade Sword Pavilion is the strongest sect in the Great Yu World so it was no trouble for us to block off some news.”
“Haha, interesting.” Lin Xun laughed. He did not expect there to be more schemes behind this murderous plan.
“It can’t be helped. After all, you hold the secret to becoming an Emperor and Ancestor. Any other sect or clan wouldn’t hesitate to fight for it at all costs...”
Li Po sighed emotionally, eyes blazing with eagerness.
The smile faded from Lin Xun’s face and his black eyes became unfathomable as he asked indifferently, “But, are you sure that one quasi-Emperor will be enough to suppress me?”
Li Po wrinkled his brows, then eased up, and said mockingly, “Little friend, you have just broken through into the Saint-King Stage, don’t tell me you think you stand a chance against a quasi-Emperor.”
He shook his head and snorted.
Quasi-Emperor!
In the Great Yu World, they were a god-like existence that even supreme Saint-Kings had to bow their heads to!
“You talk big!” Cui Fu also smiled, but his smile was full of mockery.
He thrust his palm forward.
Boom!
A giant palm, cloaked in obscure power of the quasi-Emperor Stage, aimed directly for Lin Xun.
Everything in the world, mountains, valleys and rivers, all felt as tiny as an ant under the palm.
This was the power of a quasi-Emperor. It was like the lord of heaven descending upon the world!
Lin Xun’s pupils shrank slightly, and his entire cultivation was instantly activated to its full. Above his head, the early form of the Great Dao Field emerged and chaos qi rolled across.
Bang!
The palm strike sent the Great Dao Field shaking violently, but in the end, the boundless palm power was wiped out bit by bit.
However, the impact caused Lin Xun’s qi and blood to roam frantically all over him.
After all, his opponent was a quasi-Emperor, and he was only at the initial Supreme Saint-King Stage. The difference in cultivation was tremendous.
Despite that, Lin Xun was not discouraged; instead, his spirit was lifted!
Back when he was in the Great Emperor Pass, he could not even defend himself against quasi-Emperors. They were like divine gods, while he was a tiny and insignificant ant.
But now, he was able to hold his own against a Quasi-Emperor!
“Oh?” Cui Fu’s face was alight with a hint of admiration. “It’s just the early form, but it’s already so magical. If you had more time to perfect it, it will likely condense into a Great Dao Field of extraordinary grade and power.”
Li Po reminded him, “Martial Uncle, don’t waste time talking to that guy. It’s best to capture him as soon as possible.”
He felt uneasy after witnessing Lin Xun ward off Cui Fu’s attack. He dared not imagine how terrifying he would become if he was allowed to continue to grow in the Supreme Saint-King Stage.
However, before Cui Fu could launch another strike, Lin Xun vanished from the spot. The next moment, he reappeared in front of Cui Fu and swung a fist at him.
Boom!
Rudimentary Great Dao Field power was gathered within the fist, projecting a mysterious vision that somewhat resembled a furnace and somewhat like an abyss.
With an indifferent expression, Cui Fu erupted with divine power. In the blink of an eye, he seemed to transform into an infinitely tall divine being. He suddenly swiped his hand.
The two collided, sending the heaven and earth quaking and incomparable torrents of power sweeping across every direction like a volcanic eruption.
Li Po, who was nearby, staggered and almost flew across the air!
At the same time, Lin Xun stumbled back a few steps, his qi and blood roaring frantically. Despite that, his black eyes were bright and his fighting spirit soared unexpectedly.
Now that he had achieved such cultivation, how would he fear a quasi-Emperor?
“Fight!”
He shone brightly like a divine rainbow piercing the sun. When he swung his fist again, he exuded a confident and invincible demeanor. Even if the lord of heaven stood in front of him, he would still fearlessly fight until the world was turned upside down.
Cui Fu scrunched his brows slightly.
Ordinary Saint-Kings would have been crushed to a pulp under his palm, but Lin Xun only reeled a few steps.
This sent a chill to his heart. What kind of solid foundation does this young man have to unleash such heaven-defying strength at this cultivation stage?
Taking a deep breath, he no longer wavered and marched forward.
Boom!
As he moved, the sky rumbled and the earth shook, the mountains collapsed and endless divine light spread outwards from him.
“Suppress!”
Chanting, he formed a seal with his palms and tapped the air.
Lin Xun, who was charging towards him, felt as though he was blocked by a heavenly barrier before his body was blasted away with a boom.
However, he looked as if nothing happened. He stretched his body and said aloud, “Old man, there likely are not many quasi-Emperors as pathetic as you in this world.”
In the midst of the clang and clatter of the battle, Lin Xun drew a deep breath and pushed his power to the extremes. He transformed into a giant abyss and roamed across the battlefield, smashing the surrounding space.
Cui Fu’s wrinkly face reddened with embarrassment. Lin Xun had countered his attacks time and time again. Grunting coldly, he made a grabbing motion in the air.
Rumble!
Thousands of thunderbolts lashed down, each one as thick as a bucket. They were a gorgeous and dazzling hue, which completely contrasted the terrifying aura of destruction swirling inside them.
The dao of thunderbolts was the most lethal!
Adding to that, it was unleashed by a quasi-Emperor! To ordinary cultivators, this kind of power was tantamount to a heavenly tribulation lightning.
Instantly, Lin Xun was struck and flew across the sky, hair disheveled and clothes shredded, but he laughed to himself, “If you continue like this, you will definitely make yourself a laughingstock.”
Cui Fu fumed with murderous intent. With a flash, he manipulated the laws of wind and lightning, creating mysterious phenomena in the sky. Thunder roared and lightning danced wildly.
Rumble!
All of a sudden, the world shook turbulently.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun was like a boat caught in a violent storm, barely able to lift his head and repeatedly stumbled and fell. He appeared to be in an extremely tragic state.
Regardless of how Cui Fu tried to kill him, he could not succeed.
In addition, Lin Xun’s injuries recovered again and again during the battle.
He seemed to be indestructible!
His incredible strength made Cui Fu’s eyes twitch menacingly, and the murderous intent in his heart grew stronger and stronger. If he let a little monster like him to live, there would be endless troubles in the future.
Boom!
Divine power surged around him as he summoned his ultimate killing move. The vast mountains and rivers were suddenly drowned by lightning and thunderbolts flashed endlessly. The unleashed power filled Li Po with terror and almost suffocated him.
However, what horrified him the most was that Lin Xun had withstood the deadly attack even if he was already in a poor state!
Flabbergasted, Li Po cursed, “Where the hell did this abnormal guy come from?”
“Old man, can you do it or not?”
Lin Xun repeatedly coughed up blood and was deathly pale, but his black eyes remained as bright as the stars and his fighting spirit continued to soar. He looked down on Cui Fu.
Quasi-Emperor?
He doesn’t look like one…
“Little bastard!”
The veins popped on Cui Fu’s forehead and his hair bristled. He had been disrespected by a junior again and again.
Boom!
He crossed his arms, as if he was embracing the void. Then, behind him, an astonishing
dharma form took shape, like a noble god of the great dao. The sun and moon rose and fell, and billions of stars circled around it. It looked solemn and dignified with endless light rushing forth from it.
“Divine being, punch the sun!” Cui Fu bellowed.
Behind him, the dharma form swung its fist and brought endless divine light crashing down at Lin Xun.
Lin Xun’s pupils shrank.
This was the first time since the battle began that he felt danger, the feeling was like a knife driving into his bones.
