Chapter 1516 The Killing Begins
Whoosh!
Lin Xun swiftly landed on the ground and scanned Ding Shanhe’s corpse. Only after making sure the other party was dead did he exhale a long sigh of relief.
He had killed more than one Saint before, but almost all of those attempts had relied on the help of external forces.
For instance, he had used the power of the life-killing Stupa heart to execute a group of Saints outside Snow Mulberry City.
Only at this place had he started killing Saints with his own power, whether it had been the red-clad woman or Ding Shanhe!
This was especially true in the fight with Ding Shanhe. Although Lin Xun had been helped by Little Silver and the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly, he hadn’t used Time Stopping. Instead, he had hardened himself and killed the other party in a direct confrontation.
And the price had only been a serious injury.
Once this feat came to light, it was bound to make big waves!
After all, since ancient times, in not only the Ancient Wasteland Domain but also the other eight domains, it had been almost impossible to find a longevity king like Lin Xun who was capable of killing Saints.
In fact, such a world-shattering thing had been an impossible legend.
“Congrats, Master!” Little Silver flew over with an expression of admiration.
As he spoke, he threw Feng Pingzi on the ground, who he had found the opportunity to capture during Lin Xun’s battle with Ding Shanhe.
“Master, how do we deal with her?” asked Little Silver.
Bang!
Lin Xun’s answer was simple and direct. With a palm strike, he killed Feng Pingzi and destroyed her spirit.
If it hadn’t been for this Black-Striped Demon Wasp tracking him down, how could he have been hunted to this point?
Next, Lin Xun began looting and then sorting out his spoils of war.
From Ding Shanhe’s group, he had collected several Saint Treasures as well as precious pills and divine materials.
To other people, this kind of loot could be said to be astonishing.
But to the current Lin Xun, they were no longer anything special.
On the other hand, he was quite satisfied by the Fortunes of War Merits he obtained from killing those Saints.
“Master, now that the danger has been dealt with, should we leave? Since we have killed so many Saints, it can’t be kept secret. If it draws a supreme Saint over to us, then it will be troublesome,” analyzed Little Silver.
Lin Xun pondered for a moment and said, “During this period of time, we haven’t gotten a clue about what’s happening in the outside world, so we can use this opportunity to find out.”
There were still quite a few trials and ordeals in the underground palace secret realm. Moreover, the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly still hadn’t finished drawing out power from the Void Holy Beast’s skeleton.
Lin Xun had already made up his mind to treat the Abyss Underground Palace as a waypoint and shelter. If he encountered more unsolvable dangers in the future, then this would be the place he would return to.
“That way!” There was suddenly a commotion from the distance.
Soon, a big group of people came into view. Among them, there were cultivators of the Golden Demon Snake Clan, as well as experts from many other clans of the Blood Demon Ancient Domain.
There were over a hundred of them.
They had all come here to take orders in response to Feng Pingzi’s call.
However, upon seeing the blood-strewn battlefield, their eyes went wide in shock.
In the message they had received, the prey called Lin Xun had been besieged here by a group of Saints.
None of them could have expected to be greeted with such a tragic scene upon arrival!
There were corpses scattered across the field in pools of blood. The ground had crumbled or cracked here and there. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but wreckage and destruction.
“Heavens! It’s Lord Ding Shanhe! He...he has fallen!” exclaimed a person, raising a clamor among the group.
“Even Lord Ji Qing is dead. How is this possible?”
Ji Qing was quickly identified as well. The experts of the various clans who had swarmed here all looked as though they had been struck by lightning and felt shivers running down their spines.
Didn’t the message say the target hasn’t yet to become a Saint? How did these Saints die?
“It’s that brat!”
Instantly, many gazes landed upon the distant Lin Xun, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground meditating.
His clothes were stained with blood, and his hair was disheveled. Ridden with injuries, he looked extremely wretched.
“Did he really do this?”
Many expressions flickered with uncertainty. They simply couldn’t believe that such a wretched-looking character of the supreme longevity stage could have played a part in the death of Ding Shanhe’s group.
“Why do I feel that something isn’t right?” asked someone in a trembling voice.
“Why do you care? Can’t you see that the brat is badly injured? Let’s kill him first!” Someone else stepped out with a vicious stare.
Thud!
As soon as the words left this person’s mouth, they shuddered before falling limply to the ground. Their eyes were wide open, but their spirit had been erased.
The crowd stiffened and subconsciously retreated.
This is too bizarre!
Seeing dead Saints scattered in a bloody battlefield was already shocking beyond imagination.
And now, they had witnessed an expert die on the spot from an unknown cause just because they had said a few words.
The horrifying atmosphere frightened the crowd to their core, and they felt a bone-deep chill.
Right at this moment, Lin Xun stood up. Despite his blood-stained clothes and unkempt appearance, his eyes were profound, and his expression indifferent as he emanated an unspeakable majesty.
He said, “You actually dared to come here without the lead of a Saint. Have you no fear for your life?”
“Drop the act! I’ll kill you right now!” shouted an expert of the Golden Demon Snake Clan who hid among the crowd.
Poof!
Just like the previous one, this person violently shuddered before falling back to the ground, dead.
“What’s going on?! Why is this happening?!”
Many were so frightened that their eyes widened with their hair standing on end and their hearts overwhelmed by fear.
As the thought of retreating surfaced in their minds, they recalled having heard about how bizarre and perilous this Spirit Refinement Forest was. At this moment, it was all proved to be true!
However, some still refused to believe this. One of them suddenly yelled, “Attack together! He’s heavily wounded! I don’t believe he can block us all!”
As soon as these words dropped, over a dozen experts who shared the same idea made their move. They charged toward Lin Xun while deploying their treasures and skills.
Lin Xun took a step, and a huge abyss emerged around him. With the vision of stars being obliterated within, it looked as if the gates of hell had been opened.
Bang bang bang!
In just a blink of an eye, the charging experts exploded into a scarlet rain of flesh pieces under the suppression of the abyss before they could even get close!
Their skills and treasures were all crushed as well, turning into a brilliant drizzle of light.
In this dazzling light, Lin Xun kept walking forward.
“As injured as I am, killing you all is still a piece of cake.”
His indifferent voice, as well as the tragic scene that had just unfolded scared the rest to the point that they screamed out.
Losing all courage to face this, they scattered and fled in all directions.
“Since you’ve come, you can’t just leave as you please, you know?” said Lin Xun. His voice was not loud, but it carried an intimidating majesty.
In the next second, he had vanished on the spot and launched a killing spree.
Boom!
One cultivator after another burst into pieces, dead on the spot amidst a landslide of fierce attacks.
Lin Xun didn’t spare any of them a second glance. With a monstrous killing aura spreading out from him, he was like a demonic god descending earth. Every flicker of the God Burning Wings was accompanied by a red spurt of hot blood.
His momentum was destructive and unstoppable!
At the beginning, he had been chased and hunted all the way through this Spirit Refinement Forest until he had been left with no other choice but to enter the great abyss.
Even so, those Saints had kept him in a corner and used every possible means to take him down.
This had filled Lin Xun’s heart with rage and hatred.
He had seen cultivators of the Ancient Wasteland Domain being captured and having their dignity being trampled on before being slaughtered at will. That bloody and humiliating scene was something he would never dare to forget!
And now, he wanted an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!
“NOOO!”
“Damned two-legged sheep, you’ll get what’s coming to you!”
“How is this happening? Isn’t he badly injured? How can he still be so powerful?”
“This guy is not human!”
Shrieks, roars of rage, and desperate curses echoed endlessly between heaven and earth.
But no matter how loud they wailed, Lin Xun never showed any mercy. His expression was so cold that not a single shred of emotion could be seen.
This was a blood feud; there was no room for mercy!
He understood that in this bloody Nine Domains Battlefield, one must have a heart of steel and the ability to kill without emotions in order to survive.
Some escaped Lin Xun, but were later killed without a sound by Little Silver and the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly.
Someone begged for mercy, but it was to no avail, and they ended up dead.
A short while later.
Dozens of corpses had been added to the bloody battlefield.
The killing spree, however, still continued to unfold.
Some fled into the Spirit Refinement Forest, but Lin Xun kept giving chase. With the speed of the God Burning Wings that was comparable to teleportation, he harvested numerous lives along the way.
“Outrageous!”
Suddenly, a furious shout thundered in the forest. A middle-aged man in luxurious, blinding golden clothes who had the aura of a Saint was approaching through teleportation.
Seeing this, many people were wild with joy, thinking that their rescue had arrived.
However, before the middle-aged man could get close, he suddenly let out an incomparably agonizing shriek while holding his head with both hands and falling from the air.
Little Silver and the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly had struck again!
If it had been Ding Shanhe, then he definitely wouldn’t have been so stupid to come unguarded after having witnessed the bizarre and terrifying deaths of Ji Qing and the other two Saints.
Unfortunately, this middle-aged man had come to the rescue in haste. Since he knew nothing about any of this, he had been caught off guard.
Poof!
The Broken Blade crossed the air and chopped off his head without giving any time to react.
The ecstatic expressions were instantly wiped off from the faces of the fleeing experts. It was a True Saint! But he had been killed in the blink of an eye!
Who would dare to believe this?!
“Run!”
“Run, run quick! He’s a demon! No, he’s even more terrifying than one!”
Panicked screams resounded throughout the Spirit Refinement Forest.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun kept chasing after them.
Previously, he had been chased and hunted in all sorts of manners. Now, it was his turn to pay it all back!
As the silent atmosphere of the large forest was broken, many other experts scattered within were startled and stopped what they were doing.
But before they could figure out what was going on, Lin Xun’s killing spree had already arrived.
This time, he intended to kick up a big fuss before choosing the right opportunity to leave. Otherwise, he just could not swallow the long pent-up anger and resentment in his heart!
