Chapter 1588: Sea of Forgotten Bones

Chapter 1588: Sea of Forgotten Bones

A golden thread cut through the sky, shining above the Nine Domains Battlefield.

Cultivators who held a Flying Immortal Tablet like Lin Xun all felt a strange feeling enveloping them as if they were being watched by a mysterious force.

Boom!

A thunderous great dao sound boomed out, alarming all cultivators on the Nine Domains Battlefield.

“It’s here!”

“The Flying Immortal Battle Realm is going to begin once again. This time, who will become the number one cultivator of the nine domains?”

“I guarantee that Lin Xun will definitely die this time!”

“It is the greatest regret in life that I can’t participate in such an unprecedented competition.”

Voices sounded all over the place as countless experts turned their gazes towards the sky.

Following the rumble of the great dao, chaos qi saturated the air and formed a mysterious looming shadow of a world.

Then, streaks of divine rainbows shot out from the mysterious shadow and fell from the sky, rushing towards different areas of the Nine Domains Battlefield.

Three sped straight towards the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s City of Protection, bathing Lin Xun.

Almost at the same time, Lin Xun, as well as Little Silver and Little Sky who were resting in his mind-sea, all palpitated before they were uncontrollably swept into the sky by the power of the divine rainbow.

On the top of the city walls, Zhao Jingxuan stared at the fading figures, murmuring, “You must come back alive...”

“Brother Lin, take care!”

In the City of Protection, countless cultivators prayed silently in their hearts.

At the same time, in the North Sea Territory, Kun Shaoyu, Chi Wushu, Zhu Yingkong, Xue Qingyi and other supreme Saints also soared into the sky one after another.

On that day, the Flying Immortal Battle Realm came, and anyone who held a Flying Immortal Tablet was teleported away, attracting the attention of all cultivators in the nine domains.

Only Shaohao, Ruowu and others were prepared and did not carry the Flying Immortal Tablet on them so were not teleported away.

On the same day, in the camps of the eight domains, cultivators gathered together and set off towards the same place in a mighty manner like a tide.

Dissonant bugle calls and murderous auras roaring into the sky completely broke the still and quiet atmosphere over the past half a year.

The armies of the eight domains charged forth together, all aiming for the Ancient Wasteland Territory!

Meanwhile, all experts of the Ancient Wasteland Camp guarded the city. Under the order of Shaohao, Ruowu and other supreme Saints, they went into defensive stances in an orderly manner.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere became austere, and the entire Nine Domains Battlefield was filled with murderous intent.

……

The Flying Immortal Battle Realm.

A mysterious world that was rumored to be buried with the secret of the Flying Immortal and anyone who got their hands on it could ascend the dao and become a Flying Immortal!

But ever since the first Conflict of the Nine Domains to the present, no one had successfully obtained the secret of the Flying Immortal, making this rumor fade to myth.

However, Lin Xun knew that in the Flying Immortal Battle Realm lived a kind of terrifying monster called Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits.

Not only did each one possess combat power comparable to that of a supreme Saint, but there were also countless of them and they could be seen everywhere in the Flying Immortal Battle Realm.

It was no exaggeration to say that even if other people had the opportunity to enter the Flying Immortal Battle Realm, without the strength of the supreme Saint stage, it would be no different from seeking death for them.

Ever since the first Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Flying Immortal Battle Realm had already been regarded as a battlefield to strive for supremacy among the top figures of the nine domains.

Whoever could dominate the battlefield and stand invincible would be known as the number one True Saint of the nine domains!

The moment that Lin Xun entered the Flying Immortal Battle Realm, he was greeted by a sea of bones.

There was a heap of skeletal bones like an endless ocean. The number of corpses in it would chill anyone to the core.

The world was gloomy and gray, and the air was filled with a suffocating, oppressive and eerie atmosphere. The sea of bones made the place look like a land of ghosts and demons and not the human world.

“Sea of Forgotten Bones...” Lin Xun frowned and instantly figured out his location.

In the Flying Immortal Battle Realm, the Sea of Forgotten Bones was undoubtedly a place riddled with great dangers. The piles of bones concealed countless Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits!

Lin Xun surveyed the surroundings and noticed that it was an expanse of whiteness all around him.

“Master, I sense a very bizarre atmosphere. I think it’s best to leave here quickly.”

Little Silver came out, and his handsome face overcast with a solemn expression. On his shoulders stood the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly.

“Okay.”

Lin Xun chose a direction and was about to leave when the sea of bones rumbled and shifted.

A skeleton draped in broken armor shot up, exuding a terrifying fiendish energy.

The skeleton wielded a rusty broken sword. When it strode across the air, it exuded the grace of a peerless swordsman.

“Die!”

As it charged across the sky, fiendish energy swept the world. A broken sword erupted with hazy gray light and slashed through the air with unparalleled fierceness.

A Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirit!

Little Silver snorted coldly and rushed forward.

“Slash!”

A bright divine sword appeared in Little Silver’s grip, and suddenly passed through the body of the Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirit.

Rumble!

The skeleton instantly broke apart.

Little Silver sneered. “Can’t even withstand a blow.”

Just as he finished speaking, his expression tensed, and the scattered bones reunited and restored to its original state.

Then, the Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirit came charging over once again!

Even Lin Xun widened his eyes in surprise. Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits were indeed no ordinary monster. Their bodies were surrounded in fiendish energy and even if it was destroyed, it could quickly recover as long as the strange fiendish energy remained.

“Slash!”

Little Silver’s handsome little face turned ice-cold as he charged forth once again.

This time, he changed his strategy and targeted the fiendish energy around the spirit with all his strength.

It wasn’t until after hundreds of rounds that the Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirit was utterly annihilated, with no bones or anything of it left. Even its broken sword was pulverized.

At the same time, a Fortunes of War Merit emerged in the Flying Immortal Tablet on Little Silver. The tablet originally belonged to Lin Xun, but was given to Little Silver.

Similarly, the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly also held a Flying Immortal Tablet, which originally belonged to Jian Qingchen.

The Flying Immortal Tablet that Lin Xun was carrying came from Miss A’hu.

“That thing is not only strong in combat, but also harder to kill than the average supreme Saint.”

Little Silver frowned. “One is fine, but if a large group of them appears, it will be troublesome...”

Little Silver froze as he saw Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits flying out of the sea of bones in every direction.

All of them were mutilated. Some were in human form, while some had the appearance of various unusual creatures. There were dozens of them.

“You jinxed it.”

The Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly beat its wings and flew up, emitting a frightening bearing.

“How would I have known that my luck would be so good this time...” Little Silver muttered, at a little loss for words.

“Quickly run!” Lin Xun shook his head and bolted with the two.

A group of Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits came rushing at them, full of murderous intent.

Lin Xun did not dodge or run. Instead, spectacular sword qi flooded out from him and engulfed every direction.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In all directions, Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits exploded one after another, all obliterated by the unparalleled sword qi. Not a trace of them remained.

At the same time, the Flying Immortal Tablet on Lin Xun suddenly gained another nineteen Fortunes of War Merit.

“Master is the most cruel and ruthless!” Little Silver marveled.

Lin Xun slapped Little Silver on the head, grumbling, “If you don’t know how to give compliments then don’t! Cruel? Ruthless? Am I that kind of person?”

Little Silver and Little Sky both nodded. “Yes.”

Lin Xun couldn’t help smiling.

As they conversed, they did not stop at all. But Lin Xun did deliberately slow down to test the strength of the Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits.

Along the way, Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits rushed out one after another, all of them exuding powerful baleful auras.

But before they could get close to Lin Xun, they were wiped out by the rays of Taixuan Sword Qi, unable to hinder Lin Xun at all.

A thought struck Lin Xun. If I stay around the sea of bones, I would be able to collect one thousand Fortunes of War Merits in less than a day, isn’t that right?

While he was thinking about that, a ray of blinding blood-colored light shot out from the sea of bones. Then, the numerous corpses seemed to come alive, whizzing into the sky and piling on top of one another.

In the blink of an eye, a ‘giant’ thousands of feet tall was standing in front of them like a divine being of ancient times. It was constructed from countless bones and had eyes bigger than a lake.

Boom!

Its body seemed swollen, but it was extremely nimble. Every inch of its body was suffused with an unsettling blood-colored light that dyed the world a crimson red hue.

In particular, its aura was unusually powerful, so much so that Lin Xun felt an oppressive force assaulting his face.

Its power was unbelievably strong, stronger than even leaders such as Jian Qingchen!

“This place is indeed strange, whatever you think about comes at you...” Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes, speechless.

“Master, do we run or fight?” asked Little Silver.

“There is only one vicious beast at the moment. How many more similar monsters do you think are lurking in the sea of bones?” Lin Xun frowned.

It was just a question, but just as he finished speaking, loud booming sounds came from the other directions, and then, one after another, giants made out of countless bones rose into the sky, each one overflowing with terrifying blood-colored light and earthshaking fierce power.

How bizarre!

Lin Xun, Little Silver and Little Sky were all speechless.

Without any hesitation, Lin Xun bolted at full speed.

He would not be afraid if it was just one opponent, but if a group of such frighteningly strong opponents appeared together, even he would avoid direct confrontation.

Fortunately, although the ‘giants’ had terrifying auras, their speed was not as good. Lin Xun easily outran them.

“The Flying Immortal Battle Realm is too bizarre and dangerous. It seems like it won’t be easy to collect Fortunes of War Merits here.” Little Silver sighed.

“Master, you are not just here to hunt down Flying Immortal Ghostly Spirits to collect Fortunes of War Merits. Don’t forget that people from the other eight domains are also here,” Little Sky reminded him.

Little Silver’s face lit up with excitement, “Should we rob them instead?”

Lin Xun’s face darkened. Little Silver’s personality seemed to have changed ever since he became a supreme Saint. Could this be the true personality of a God Devourer Insect?

Suddenly, wisps of an airy, melodious flute sounded in the distance, as ethereal as the sounds of nature, relaxing everyone’s mind and alleviating any negative emotions.
