The name struck the silver-robed man and the others like a bolt of lightning. As if imbued with a mystical power, it sent a chill through their hearts and changed their expressions drastically. Even if they had never seen Lin Xun in person, who among them didn’t know the tyrannical existence that name represented? A bitter taste filled the mouths of the silver-robed man and the others. They never imagined that their luck would be so terrible that they ran into and provoked such a ruthless figure the moment they walked into a forbidden land. “Lin Xun, the forces of the Wen, Heng, and Luo Clans are scouring the Dao Ruins to hunt you down. At a time , I’m sure you don’t want to stir up more trouble, right?” The silver-robed man drew a deep breath and said in a composed manner, “How about this? We each take a step back. You can leave, and we won’t ask for the treasure on you.” Lin Xun’s answer came in the form of a punch. A booming sound roared out like the heavens and earth were collapsing. The silver-robed man’s face turned grim. He had an extraordinary background and powerful backing. Though he didn’t want to offend Lin Xun, it didn’t mean he feared him. The silver-robed man roared. A brilliant sword shot forth, gleaming with a chilling sharpness as if ripped through the void. Unfortunately for him, the force of Lin Xun’s punch shattered it before it even neared. The broken blade was hurled backward with tremendous force, yet the punch’s momentum didn’t stop. It slammed straight into the silver-robed man like a sacred mountain falling from the sky. Blood burst from his mouth and nose as he staggered back, nearly crushed by that single blow! The sword-wielding old man sensed danger and reacted immediately. Without hesitation, he charged forward and the ancient sword in his hand shot out. Sword qi erupted, forming a terrifying vision as if to split heaven and earth apart. However, Lin Xun merely stepped forward and without even glancing at him, hurled another punch. The ancient sword trembled violently with a buzzing wail. The old man’s blood and qi churned chaotically, his eyes filled with horror. Only now, after clashing directly, did he truly understand the monstrous nature of Lin Xun’s power. No wonder he could suppress even Wen Taolue head-on. His strength was utterly tyrannical! Almost immediately, the old man grabbed the silver-robed man and fled without hesitation. Lin Xun’s strength was beyond their comprehension! Seeing this, the remaining cultivators didn’t dare to stay another moment and chose to retreat. Unfortunately, how could Lin Xun possibly let them escape so easily? In an instant, he summoned the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron. Billions of strands of dao light cascaded down like rivers of stars, dazzling and swirling gracefully. He shot forward like a bolt of divine lightning, unleashing his cultivation without restraint. In the blink of an eye, several of the fleeing figures were caught and obliterated. Their bodies exploded, primordial spirits shattered, and their souls were utterly destroyed. The sight struck fear into the hearts of the remaining cultivators. Their scalps went numb and they were utterly terror-stricken. Only now did they realize they had kicked an iron wall. In panic, they scattered and fled for their lives. Lin Xun’s invincible strike had crushed their will to fight! These cultivators were no ordinary figures. Each had exceptional strength and hailed from extraordinary backgrounds. Otherwise, they would never have dared to set foot in the Dao Ruins for this trial. Unfortunately, today they suffered a devastating defeat. As Lin Xun gave chase, figures fell one after another like weeds being cut down. They were utterly powerless to resist. It wasn't that they were weak, but instead that Lin Xun was far too powerful During his days of enlightenment on the bluestone platform, he had fully integrated all the supreme inheritances he held, and his cultivation had advanced at an astonishing rate. The current him could face even Ancestors of a Path head-on, so how could he possibly fear them? One by one, his enemies were slain. Before long, only five or six remained, including the silver-robed man. They fled desperately, rushing out of the forbidden land’s entrance. Despite that, Lin Xun didn’t relent. As he stepped out of the entrance and came to the huge mountain summit where that Ancestor-level evil spirit once sat, an unexpected change occurred. A terrifying force suddenly erupted, spreading from all directions like a tide that blotted out the sky and sun. It engulfed the silver-robed man and his group in an instant. Within seconds, several were slain on the spot. Only the silver-robed man and the old man with Ancestor-level cultivation managed to resist, but their expressions were grim and their eyes bloodshot. This sudden attack clearly completely caught them off guard. Lin Xun’s gaze shifted toward the mountaintop. There, six Ancestor-level evil spirits had been lying in wait! One had three heads and six arms, with a monstrous green face and fangs, towering like a thousand-foot mountain. Its skin was covered with bizarre, flower-like tattoo totems. Another had bloodshot eyes, wore blood-red robes, was as thin as bamboo, and wielded a blood-colored war spear. Each swing unleashed storms of scarlet lightning. A third took the form of a giant ferocious bird, its jet-black wings like clouds hanging from the sky. Its talons were wreathed in a swirling torrent of destruction. Each exuded the terrifying might of the Ancestor Stage. As if they possessed intelligence, they worked together in perfect coordination to surround and slaughter the two remaining experts. Within moments, the silver-robed man and the old man were gravely wounded and could not withstand much longer. Even with their ultimate trump card treasures, they couldn’t break free of the deadly encirclement. “Tiefeng, Momu, go kill him!” Suddenly, a blood-red snake that was about as thin as a chopstick spotted Lin Xun. Its eyes narrowed coldly as it issued a command. Instantly, two Ancestor-level evil spirits lunged toward Lin Xun. One was a tall man wreathed in black flames, wielding a massive pitch-black sword. The other was a monstrous skeletal beast. Its mountain-like frame resembled a berserk dragon, but it bore a pair of enormous bone wings, and its eyes blazed with divine green flames. The man descended from the sky, brandishing his massive sword. Sword light raged like a storm, tearing through the heavens while a torrent of cold and destructive black sword qi flooded the skies with a deafening roar. The skeletal beast then hurled a massive claw wreathed in raging green flames, slamming it down with terrifying force. The world was instantly thrown into chaos. Nearby mountains collapsed and crumbled, while the earth split open with web-like chasms. Faced with this combined assault, Lin Xun immediately activated the netherworld dao and charged head-on. A deafening blast rang out. The giant sword trembled violently, and the man staggered as black flames surged wildly around him. He nearly plummeted from the sky. One of the skeleton beast’s massive claws was shattered by the blow. It let out an agonizing roar that shook the heavens. “Netherworld! Damn it! Such a dao still exists?” the man with the black sword shouted, disbelief and fury in his voice. The emerald green flames in the skeletal beast’s eyes flickered with shock. “Netherworld dao? He must have killed King Feituo who was guarding this place!” In the distance, the little blood-colored snake’s voice rang out, cold and sharp. At that moment, the severely wounded old man suddenly roared, “Young Master, I’ll send you to safety!” His body erupted in a terrifying downpour of dao light, as if igniting his very essence. Without regard for his own life, he charged forward and forcefully repelled the three-headed, six-armed Ancestor-level evil spirit. With a sweep of his sleeve, he tore open a rift in space. Seizing the silver-robed man, he flung him through the gap. A blood-red spear came streaking through the air and decapitated the old man in an instant. At the same time, the three-headed, six-armed figure grabbed the old man’s body with its six massive hands and, with a sudden pull, tore him apart. Blood rained like a waterfall. Just as they were about to go after the fleeing silver-robed man, the blood-colored snake let out a cold command, “Kill him first! I suspect the Epoch Seal is on him!” As it spoke, it transformed into a flash of eerie blood-red lightning and vanished. In the next instant, it mysteriously appeared before Lin Xun, aiming straight for the spot between his brows. Its speed was beyond belief. The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron appeared in an instant, and although it blocked the blood-red snake’s deadly strike, the impact caused Lin Xun’s figure to halt abruptly and he couldn’t help gasp in surprise. The tiny blood-red snake looked unremarkable, but its power was utterly terrifying. At that moment, the towering figure with three heads and six arms, along with the blood-robed figure, also descended, their auras even more terrifying than before. There were a total of six Ancestor-level evil spirits! Such a formation made Lin Xun’s heart pound. His expression grew solemn and he unleashed all his strength, not daring to hold anything back. The sky trembled as if collapsing. Terrifying power surged like tidal waves. Scenes of apocalyptic destruction filled every corner of the world. Trapped within the encirclement, Lin Xun couldn’t break free! In fact, even Ancestors of a Path would struggle to endure such a deadly onslaught. The difference in power was simply too great. There was almost no hope of victory. Though Lin Xun was proud, he was not arrogant enough to think he could prevail in a direct clash. Even though the netherworld dao naturally restrained these evil spirits, it was still difficult to counter six Ancestor-level beings at once. As the pressure of the battle continued to mount, Lin Xun dared not hesitate any longer. However, just as he was about to activate the extinguishing law fire, a sudden thought struck him. He remembered the Jade Disk of Fortune. It had once suppressed an Ancestor-level evil spirit that resembled a withered vine, completely absorbing and devouring all of its power. It was incomparably domineering. The next moment, Lin Xun flipped his hand over and summoned the Jade Disk of Fortune. The snow-white jade disk glowed with obscure, radiant dao light as he held it in his palm. “The Epoch Seal!” The blood-red snake cried out, its voice trembling with excitement. “The treasure our emperor seeks...it really was taken by him!” The other Ancestor-level evil spirits also grew visibly agitated. Lin Xun was taken aback. The Epoch Seal? Could there be a deeper secret hidden within the Jade Disk of Fortune? Unfortunately, at this moment, the jade disk remained still, lacking the spiritual brilliance it once displayed and showing no sign of taking the initiative to attack the enemy. Lin Xun had no time to think further. The three headed, six armed creature lunged at him, its six arms closing in like a cage, blotting out the sun and the sky. While controlling the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron, Lin Xun suddenly hurled the Jade Disk of Fortune like a brick. With an earth-shaking crash, the three-headed, six-armed monster let out a blood-curdling scream. The Jade Disk of Fortune unleashed a terrifying devouring force and swallowed an entire arm in a single strike, refining it on the spot! Three heads and six arms instantly became three heads and five arms. The other Ancestor-level evil spirits were horrified by the sight. It was clearly beyond anything they had anticipated. Lin Xun’s spirits were lifted. Although the jade disk no longer seemed as spiritually responsive as before, it was clear that its power remained a deadly threat to those Ancestor-level evil spirits!
