Chapter 1694: The Great Luo Sword Mountain

“Brother Lin, if you want to enter the Kunlun Dominion, you must first cross the Flying Immortal River and fly over it, just like a fish leaping over the dragon gate. Anyone without a foundation of the Big Saint Stage will be washed away by the mighty river.”

A’hu put away the Grand Universe Ark.

A serious and vigilant look passed over her face. “In about two days, the entrance to the Kunlun Dominion will open. During this period, many powerful experts from the Ancient Nebula Road will come. When they happen, we must lie low.”

As she spoke, her aura changed. Her ethereal appearance turned to just delicately pretty, and even her demeanor became gentle and plain.

Lin Xun scanned her. It was indeed difficult to see through the ‘disguise.’

“Now I won’t attract attention.” A’hu blinked her beautiful eyes.

Lin Xun pointed at her eyes. “The flaw is in those eyes. Even the most ordinary aura and appearance will attract a lot of attention with such a pair of captivating eyes.”

A’hu acknowledged his feedback. The glow in her eyes became restrained, and her gaze turned as calm and still as water. “What about now?”

Lin Xun still shook his head. “Your voice needs to change too.”

A’hu was not irritated at all. Instead, she said happily, “Brother Lin, do you mean that no matter how ordinary I look, if my voice doesn’t change, I will still draw a lot of attention?”

Lin Xun answered bluntly, “Of course, didn’t the ancient people say that all aspects of a beautiful woman are extraordinary? This includes their voice, looks, spirit, aura, and appearance.”

“Alright, I will listen to you.” A’hu chuckled, her eyes forming into perfect little crescent moons.

As she spoke, her voice had already changed. She might have lost the melodious charm in her voice, but it was still gentle and pleasant.

Lin Xun chose not to disguise himself.

A’hu did so because she was a flawlessly beautiful woman, and every frown and smile of hers took the breath of the world away.

If she showed up in a crowd, she would instantly become the focus of attention. To avoid drawing attention, she had to make some changes to herself.

After a brief discussion, the two continued onwards.

Rumble!

The Flying Immortal River rushed down the sky like a waterfall falling from the nine heavens. The forceful torrents created a deafening crash of water and sprayed thousands of water droplets.

As Lin Xun and A’hu got closer, they found that some people had already arrived and were waiting by the Flying Immortal River.

The area around the river was very huge and in different directions stood many groups of people.

There were around hundreds of figures in total.

Those figures, men and women, all exuded an astonishingly sacred aura!

Some were sitting astride celestial birds with their wide-sleeved robes fluttering with the wind.

Some were sitting cross-legged on the clouds, looking leisurely and content.

Some stood tall with swords strapped to their backs, eyes narrowed, and surrounded by a murderous spirit.

But whether they were men or women, they were all like divine beings and had an extraordinary aura around them. It was as though a cluster of stars were shining brightly to overshadow one another.

Even Lin Xun was awed into silence.

Of the hundreds of people, at least half were Big Saints!

The Big Saint Stage was big and immeasurable and ranked above all True Saints. In the Ancient Wasteland Domain, wherever a Big Saint went, they would be worshiped by all like a high and mighty god.

They were undoubtedly an extraordinary existence.

And now, over a hundred of rarely seen Big Saints were gathered on the banks of Flying Immortal River. Naturally, it was a spectacular sight.

Even the other half of the figures were all young cultivators who had set foot onto the Supreme Path. The men were tall and handsome, the women beautiful and graceful. The difference between them and the old monsters in the Ancient Wasteland Domain who had stagnated at the True Saint Stage were obvious at a glance.

Lin Xun even spotted characters with magnificent and powerful auras. Undoubtedly, they were all remarkable characters of the pinnacle level!

“The Ancient Nebula Road is indeed extraordinary.” He exclaimed to himself.

However, he also knew that anyone who could reach the banks of the Flying Immortal River had to be an extremely extraordinary character from the Ancient Nebula Road.

In all worlds, there might be plenty of Saint Stage cultivators, but much more were below the Saint Stage. This was the same in the Ancient Nebula Road.

Birds of a feather flock together.

Not everyone in the world was qualified to enter the Kunlun Dominion.

For example, from the vast Ancient Wasteland Domain, the only ones who had shown up so far were him, A’hu, Toady and the others in the Dao Endless Pagoda.

“Let’s go over there.” Unfazed by the crowd, A’hu led Lin Xun towards the Flying Immortal River

Their appearance drew some gazes, but many quickly withdrew their attention and started talking among themselves.

The experts present came from different areas and different clans of the Ancient Nebula Road. Only a few of them knew each other so they were not surprised by the appearance of two unfamiliar faces.

It was understandable. The Ancient Nebula Road was incredibly vast. It would be very difficult to identify a person’s origin and background without an introduction.

Of course, the peerless figures renowned in the Ancient Nebula Road were an exception.

Lin Xun might be very famous in the Ancient Wasteland Domain and was always the center of attention, but on the banks of the Flying Immortal River, he was a nobody.

However, Lin Xun was rather pleased with this. Without any attention, he likely would not need to worry about any unexpected events happening.

It was best to make a fortune secretly!

“How about here?”

The two found a quiet corner.

“In three days, a door will emerge on the Flying Immortal River and once you step through, you will reach the outer perimeter of the Kunlun Dominion.” A’hu pointed to the sky above the Flying Immortal River. “In the past years, the layout, structure and opportunities of the outer areas of the ??Kunlun Dominion have long been explored in detail.

“For example, after entering the Kunlun Dominion, you will come to an area called Treasure Refining Land, which is exceptionally vast just like a small world of its own.

“Treasure Refining Land gives birth to a kind of qi that can’t be found in the outside world—Treasure Refining Dao Qi. If you seize and integrate them into a treasure, they would have magical effects such as repairing and improving the grade of the treasure.

“In the past, countless fierce conflicts and bloodshed have broken out between cultivators over Treasure Refining Dao Qi.

“Although Treasure Refining Land contains fortunes and opportunities, it is also full of dangers. From time to time, innumerable peculiar flames will rush forth, but the most terrifying one has to be the Soul-Destroying Wind Flame. If one sweeps past one, it can obliterate the spirit of a supreme Big Saint.

“Of course, Treasure Refining Land is only in the outermost area of ??Kunlun Dominion, and relatively speaking, it is not that dangerous.”

A’hu had clearly done her homework and come well prepared, which surprised Lin Xun a little.

As the two were chatting, a voice boomed out—

“Everyone, excuse me for a second, have you seen anyone holding a Flying Immortal Tablet from the Nine Domains?”

The resounding voice echoed throughout the area.

Startled, Lin Xun and A’hu both looked up.

The person who asked the question was a black robed young man riding on a red-flame python dragon, arms folded across his chest. His eyes were as sharp and threatening as swords as he scanned the crowd.

A three-foot-long green blade rested across his knees, flowing with wisps of dao light and emitting a menacing and ferocious aura.

“Lu Beigu from the Red Sun Battle Clan!”

Some people narrowed their eyes at the sight of the black robed young man.

There was a low commotion within the crowd.

The Red Sun Battle Clan was one of the ten major battle clans in the Ancient Nebula Road. Not only did it have an extremely long history and solid foundation, but it was also said to be descendants of the God of Fire.

Lu Beigu was a leading figure of the younger generation of the Red Sun Battle Clan. He was a born genius who possessed a mythic-grade talent—Fire Dancing Sun.

He had only been cultivating for around three hundred years, but he was already a well-known supreme Big Saint who possessed the foundation to tackle the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings.

Of course, there were many other powerful figures present, including those unalarmed by Lu Beigu’s presence. Instead, their eyes sparkled with interest and curiosity when they heard what Lu Beigu said.

Flying Immortal Tablet!

It was said that the tablet granted entry into forbidden areas to whoever held it, allowing them to search for great fortunes!

“Our sect has some contact with the Great Luo Ancient Domain. I heard that the final winner of the Conflict of Nine Domains is a man called Lin Xun from the Ancient Wasteland Domain. I wonder if that guy has come,” someone said aloud.

It was a man with skin that glowed a light golden hue. He had a smooth forehead and carried an ancient sword on his back. There seemed to be rays of sword intent intertwining in his eyes.

A successor of Great Luo Sword Mountain, Wei Ziya!

Many people’s countenance changed when they saw Wei Ziya.

The Great Luo Sword Mountain was one of the Nine Great Sword Sects in the Ancient Nebula Road. It was home to three thousand official disciples, all of whom were top-rated sword cultivators.

In the Ancient Nebula Road, the Great Luo Sword Mountain was regarded as one of the top influential forces and also a sacred place for sword cultivators.

Wei Ziya, a sword cultivator of the Supreme Big Saint Stage, was the number one true successor of the Great Luo Sword Mountain and a swordsman ranked 279th on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings.

His ranking seemed not that impressive.

But it should be mentioned that the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings was made up of five hundred positions!

Moreover, the Ancient Nebula Road was incredibly vast with a huge number of supreme Big Saints.

But only the five hundred most powerful supreme Big Saints could make it onto the list.

It was no exaggeration to say that Wei Ziya, who made it onto the 279th position on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings, had to be a terrifying peerless character that could shake the starry sky!

Lin Xun!

Many people kept that name in mind after they heard Wei Ziya’s words.

Only Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes slightly and whispered, “That swordsman called Wei Ziya seems to have hostile intentions towards me.”

A’hu replied, “I just happened to know that the founder of Great Luo Sword Mountain was Sword Emperor Qingyu. He came from the Great Luo Ancient Domain and he ascended the dao there. In the first Conflict of the Nine Domains, he received the title of the Number One of the Nine Domains Battlefield.

“And in the previous Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Great Luo Ancient Domain camp lost badly to you. As a successor of Great Luo Sword Mountain, it would be strange if Wei Ziya did not know of you.”

Lin Xun immediately thought of Jian Qingchen!

Jian Qingchen was a leading figure of the Great Luo Camp younger generation, but he had died at Lin Xun’s hands on the Nine Domains Battlefield.

Lin Xun still remembered that Jian Qingchen’s killing move was the Imperial Sword of Edict. Legend had it that this was the wooden sword that had accompanied Sword Emperor Qingyu when he ascended the dao!
