Chapter 1358 Head to Baiyujing Again

“Dependence is a thief in the heart. And you have killed it. Even if you seek help, it has nothing to do with dependence. This is the difference between resigning to the inevitable and not resigning to the inevitable,” said the mysterious woman casually.

“It is not enough to simply cut off dependence and become self-reliant. For you, in the future, you should also have the ambition to surpass the sages of all times and to ascend the pinnacle of the great dao.”

After that, there was silence.

Lin Xun responded with a smile, knowing that the mysterious woman’s attitude towards him had changed from before.

The pinnacle of the great dao!

Those words brought a surge of emotions welling up inside Lin Xun.

It could mean ascending the highest point of the great dao or it could mean reaching the farthest point of the great dao, or it could mean becoming the strongest above the great dao!

“Take it step by step. It’s not good to bite off more than one can chew...”

After a while, Lin Xun calmed his emotions and rose to his feet.

The crisis he faced right after returning from the Supreme Realm had been resolved, and now it was time to deal with some personal affairs.

“A’lu, will we meet again?”

Lin Xun moved A’lu, Toady and Caicai out of the Dao Endless Pagoda.

After learning that the crisis had been averted, A’lu decided to leave. He wanted to return to his master and find out about the mystery of his life.

He grinned, “Hey, of course we will meet again. Brother, you are so famous now, don’t tell me you are worried that I can’t find you?”

“Why don’t we make a promise? The war of the nine domains will inevitably break out one day. When that happens, how about we brothers reunite on the battlefield?” Toady suggested.

“Alright!” A’lu readily agreed.

Not long after that, he bid farewell and left.

As Lin Xun and Toady watched his mighty figure disappear, a feeling of pensive sadness filled their hearts. They did not know when they would see each other again after this separation.

They could only hope that each other would take care of themselves.

“Young Master Lin, I...I also should head back too,” Caicai murmured, the reluctance on her pretty and innocent face was obvious.

Lin Xun smiled. “Caicai, perhaps I might come to see you soon.”

“Huh?”

Caicai’s dark almond-shaped eyes widened, then she exclaimed happily, “Young Master Lin, if you come, you will be treated as an esteemed guest. I have to prepare well on how to welcome you.”

Lin Xun said, “But how should I find you?”

Although the Cloud Weaver Clan was not one of the most powerful ancient clans in the world, it was known to be extremely mysterious and their clansmen rarely appeared in the world.

“Here, this is a pouch I made. Young Master, if you are looking for me, just head to the Cloud Dream Reservoir and open the pouch. It will guide you.”

Caicai handed a light pink pouch to Lin Xun.

“Okay, thank you.”

Lin Xun held it in his hand. The pouch, embroidered with cloud patterns, was soft and warm and had the delicate fragrance of a young girl.

“Would you like me to see you off?” asked Lin Xun

“No need, I’m not a child anymore, I can go home by myself.” Caicai grinned, waving her little soft hand before she turned around and left.

The girl’s slender figure gradually faded under the beautiful glow of the sunset.

“Take care, Caicai. I’ll be waiting for you to weave the most beautiful wedding dress in the world and drink the wedding liquor you brewed,” Toady cried out.

“Ah!”

From the distance, a maiden’s shy cry rang out before she vanished in a flash like a startled rabbit.

Toady couldn’t help smiling. “She’s such a nice girl.”

“Do you like her?” asked Lin Xun.

“Who wouldn’t?”

Toady rolled his eyes.

“I thought you were planning to be Caicai’s groom,” teased Lin Xun.

Toady said irritably, “I am devoted to the dao and have never thought about any romantic relationships. What’s more, no woman in this world is worthy of me.”

He had started bragging again.

Lin Xun lashed out with a kick. “Toady, make a trip to Spirit Treasure Holy Land and meet up with Miss Zhao. When I return, we shall find a way back to the lower world together.”

“Where are you going?” Toady looked puzzled.

“To take care of some personal matters.”

In the end, Lin Xun still did not tell Toady what he planned to do.

Revenge was indeed a private matter, and he did not want Toady to get involved in it.

Toady took a deep breath. “Then you must come.”

Lin Xun nodded.

On the same day, Toady left for Spirit Treasure Holy Land in the Ink White Province.

This was what Lin Xun had agreed with Zhao Jingxuan and Toady before leaving the Supreme Realm.

“I’m all alone now...”

Standing alone in the vast world, Lin Xun felt extremely quiet.

“Master, I am still here,” Little Silver reminded him in his mind-sea.

Lin Xun was taken aback at first, then he burst into laughter. “Yes, I have you, how about we make a trip to Baiyujing?”

“How would I disobey Master’s order?” Little Silver gave a rare smile. His usual serious and handsome face had become brighter than the sun.

“Let’s go!”

Lin Xun did not hesitate at all.

Yun Qingbai had died, but the accomplices in the massacre of the Lin Clan were still alive. It was time to put an end to everything.

......

The Ancient Wasteland Domain was huge. After the four worlds were unified, the entire world had become very different from before.

Lin Xun left the valley and flew around in the air for several hours before he discovered a city.

Only after he entered the city did he realize he had come to a city that originally belonged to the border of the South Wonder World.

In the busy streets, there was an endless flow of people and the shouts of street vendors. From time to time, creatures of various races would pass through the crowd.

Standing in the middle of the bustling and chaotic street, Lin Xun could not help but fall into a trance. He had not experienced the secular world and its liveliness for a long time.

“It is said that Demon God Lin, after arriving in the West Infinity World, already demonstrated his unique brilliance. Although he was a nobody at the time, he had the guts to compete with disciples of the ancient orthodoxies and killed without mercy...”

In a teahouse, a storyteller was sputtering incessantly.

Many customers had gathered around to listen in, bursting into exclamations from time to time.

Lin Xun stared at them blankly.

He never thought that his deeds would be retold by storytellers and spread around the streets.

And it seemed to be rather popular.

“My cousin really knows Demon God Lin. They had searched for treasures together when he was still in the West Infinity World, and they have an extremely good relationship.”

“Wu Dazui, stop lying. What kind of person is your cousin? Is he worthy of being associated with the Demon God Lin?”

Lin Xun had only walked a few steps when another squabble caught his attention. The corners of his lips twitched.

At the same time, he was wondering what was going on. Why were there remarks and discussions about him no matter where he went?

Soon, Lin Xun came to the center of the city, where a News Tree was glowing brightly.

Many figures were gathered around the tree.

Lin Xun took a closer look and understanding dawned on him right away. The majority of the news on the News Tree was related to him!

The number one person in the Supreme Realm, the first on the Genius Gold Rankings, the present day legend, the unparalleled talent of the younger generation...

Lin Xun had been crowned with all sorts of peculiar titles.

But every piece of news mentioned the bloody battle that resulted in the deaths of several saints a few days ago.

When Lin Xun saw this, he finally understood the situation. He had become famous in the world!

This left him speechless for a while. Fortunately, he had disguised his appearance prior to entering the city.

Given his current strength and cultivation level, it was impossible for others to see through his disguise unless they were Saints.

“What are they writing?!”

Not long after that, his face darkened. One of the news reports was about the affairs between him and different women including Ji Xingyao, Bai Lingxi, Luo Jia, Le Caiwei and Zhao Jingxuan.

This was clearly based on baseless rumors, but the writer of the news report made it sound like a love story.

Worst of all, the news sparked the most reaction and interest.

Men who read it looked envious and impressed.

Women who read it were heartbroken and disappointed. Some even directly scolded Lin Xun for his womanizing behavior and bad character.

Lin Xun’s face was darker than ever. This was all fabricated and untrue!

But he could not explain himself.

“No wonder the world has a love-hate relationship with the Wind Speaker Clan...” Lin Xun gnashed his teeth.

After several minutes, he had a general idea of what was happening in the present world, and then he continued onwards to Baiyujing.

He pushed on with his journey on the Grand Universe Ark. Along the way, he began to comprehend and practice the Taixuan Sword Scripture.

Half a month later.

He reached the territory of Baiyujing.

At this moment, in his heart, a Taixuan quintessence had been cultivated. Shaped like a sword, it was transparent and crystal clear, floating among the power of Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer.

Within the sword body contained Lin Xun’s cultivation, essence, qi, and spirit.

This sword was also called the Taixuan Heart Sword. Only the power of the Taixuan Heart Sword could control the Taixuan Sword Qi in other acupoints of the body!

Lin Xun has only had his first glimpse into the sword scripture and begun to cultivate the Taixuan Heart Sword, but it was already a very good start.

From now on, he only needed to follow the secrets of the sword scripture to cultivate sword qi in the acupoints all over his body.

However, it was not easy. It tested a cultivator’s mentality and understanding of the sword dao.

If one did not know how to do it, one would never be able to cultivate eight hundred and forty million sword qi in their life.

Omega Sword Sect, Cloud Light Hall.

This was the training hall of inner sect elder Meng Qiujing.

“What should we do? He has killed Yun Qingbai, so he won’t let us off. Even Saints are no match for him. We...how can we deal with him?”

Zhao Jingzhen paced anxiously up and down the hall.

After learning that Lin Xun had single-handedly killed nine Saints, he had been having trouble sleeping and eating. As time went by, his temper grew more and more irritable.

“Jingzhen, in the Omega Sword Sect, no one can touch us.”

Opposite him, Meng Rong furrowed her brows, exposing her dissatisfaction with Zhao Jingzhen. How could he lose his composure over this? Lin Xun is just a kid. It is a little surprising that he killed a few Saints.

But would he have the guts to force his way into the Omega Sword Sect?
