Chapter 1767: Senior Brothers!
Lin Xun was like a feather in the vast universe as a powerful force pulled him deeper and deeper in.
Looking around, there were no stars, no light, and not even a speck of dust. Not even the passage of time or distance could be felt.
There was nothing but an utter void.
However, there was no danger along the way either, allowing Lin Xun’s tense and vigilant state of mind to gradually relax.
When he had just obtained the teachings from the Master of Fangchun Mountain on Fengshan Platform, which had turned into the diagram of ‘crescent moon three stars’ and vanished into his right palm, Lin Xun had already noticed that something wasn’t right.
The five-colored altar had produced a restrictive force that had prevented him from leaving.
It wasn’t after he had carved his Dharma name Lin Daoyuan on the Fengshan Dao Stele that the restrictive force had grabbed him like a big hand, wanting to take him away.
Time had been running out then, so Lin Xun had no time to explain and could only say farewell to A’hu in a hurry.
“Where is it taking me, I wonder…” Lin Xun spread his spirit sense but didn’t perceive a thing.
As time passed, he no longer bothered asking why and instead began to calculate his gains and losses during his trip to the Kunlun Dominion.In Treasure Refining Land, the Broken Blade had absorbed a great amount of Treasure Refining Dao Qi, thus gaining fifty-four Natal Treasure Runes and undergoing an earth-shaking upgrade in power.
Within the Peach Utopia Secret Realm, he had consumed a Flat Peach that had given him ten years worth of cultivation, allowing him to enter the peak Big Saint Stage.
Something that had left a deep impression on Lin Xun was the violet-clad figure hidden within the branches of the Flat Peach Tree, who had always been waiting for his arrogant and unruly senior brother to come back…
At the top of Imperial Dragon Mountain, he had dominated a group of enemies and entered one of the nine secret mini worlds. There, he had learned about the mysteries of the Dao Ruleless Bell and used the Dao Immeasurable Bottle to collect the wishing power of all living beings.
It was also then that Lin Xun had first found out about Senior Brother Li Xuanwei, also learning that the Dao Lantern Festival on Cangwu Mountain in the Ancient Wasteland Domain was a legacy of Li Xuanwei and his friends.
On the way to Fengshan Platform, one of the three forbidden lands of the Kunlun Dominion, Lin Xun had met with Senior Brother Ge Yupu and Demon-Beast Emperor Dutian on the God Binding Heavenly Peak.
In the end, Kong Dutian had been sealed within the Dao Endless Pagoda, while Ge Yupu had given him the Three Thousand Vicissitudes left behind by the Master of Fangchun Mountain.
Ge Yupu had also imparted to him the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic…
When Lin Xun had arrived at Fengshan Platform, his cultivation had already broken into the advanced Big Saint Stage. And after an incredible perception in the universe, it was finally clear to him that the secret of becoming an Emperor and an Ancestor that was regarded as a supreme fortune by the world was actually the daoist teachings that his master had left for him.
……
In addition to those ups and downs, he had also gone through incessant bloody battles since the moment he had entered the Kunlun Dominion.
No elaboration was needed on the process, but Lin Xun could already conclude that he had completely offended quite a few of the big powers in the Great Six Courts and the Great Ten Battle Clans.
But whether it was before, now, or in the future, he would never become fearful or regret this!
At the same time, the amount of loot that he had obtained from each of those battles was astonishing, with no shortage of invaluable treasures.
The examples included Wen Qingxue’s trump card that was a mysterious sword tip, Xu Lingkun’s Diagram of Sixteen Emperor Daggers, and so on.
In short, the journey in the Kunlun Dominion had been a bountiful harvest for Lin Xun.
The only thing he regretted was that he didn’t get to meet up with Toady, A’lu, and his other friends once more before this abrupt turn of events.
“Huh?” Lin Xun suddenly grew serious and looked into the distance.
In the depths of the empty void, there was an abrupt stroke of color, which then coalesced into a figure.
It was a man with a middle-aged appearance. He was dressed in a high hat and ancient clothes with wide sleeves, and had a silver beard and hair. He stood in the void with an indifferent expression as terrifying Law Power drifted around him.
Looking from afar, he was like a lord that presided over the universe. His infinite majesty made Lin Xun feel like an ant and have chills appear all over!
“Finally… It was worth such a long wait…”
An indifferent voice came out from that middle-aged man’s mouth, each syllable was like a heavenly decree that stirred up waves of turbulence in the surrounding void.
And as that man spoke, he was looking at Lin Xun.
What kind of gaze was that?
It was as deep as the sky, indifferent and unfeeling, as if the heavens were observing an ant on the ground!
Lin Xun’s scalp tingled, and his mind showed signs of collapse. He could tell almost right away that this person was an Emperor!
“Young man, the fortune from Fengshan Platform is not something that the current you can withstand, so hand it to me.” The middle-aged man waved his hand.
Whoosh!
Lin Xun only felt the power wrapping him being peeled off and then he was sent uncontrollably flying toward the middle-aged man.
The latter’s eyes were emotionless as he stretched out his hand.
In that instance, Lin Xun’s hair all stood up. It was only a hand, but it was as if it was covering the sky. The power emanating from it was so terrifying that he couldn’t even have the idea of fighting it!
Buzz~
Right at this moment, the Three Thousand Vicissitudes emerged. This seemingly ordinary horsetail whisk gently swung itself.
The middle-aged man was knocked flying, splitting a long crack in the void as he flew.
“Great dao horsetail whisk! Why aren’t you dead yet, Ge Yupu?” The middle-aged man’s enraged voice resounded in the distance, stirring the void.
The Three Thousand Vicissitudes glowed and flowed with dao light, reflecting an illusory figure dressed as a woodcutter.
It was clearly Ge Yupu!
A stunned Lin Xun blurted out, “Senior Brother, you’re still alive?”
Ge Yupu couldn’t help but smile. He replied warmly, “Junior Brother, a man dies like a lamp goes out, and resurrection is no simple matter. This is just the remnant will power I left behind.”
“Ge Yupu! How dare you, a dead man, hinder me?!” The middle-aged man appeared out of thin air with the same indifferent look. His beard and hair flew wildly as he held up a bagua mirror.
Swish!
The mirror rotated and broadcast eight strange worlds of wind, thunder, earth, fire, sky, water, mountain, and swamp!
The eight worlds generated eight world Law Powers that unleashed an unimaginable might as they were fused with supreme Emperor Dao Laws.
Ge Yupu grasped the whisk and waved it.
Kaboom!
The universe was thrown into chaos, and the void collapsed. Lin Xun’s field of vision turned into a blinding white. He could neither see nor sense anything.
This kind of battle was too supreme for him to understand or even steal a glance at!
When his vision finally regained clarity, the middle-aged man was no longer present. Only the fragments and cracks that remained around were proof of the horrifying battle that had just taken place.
“There are probably many thieving eyes along your journey, Junior Brother, that covet the daoist teachings that our master has left for you.” Next to Lin Xun, Ge Yupu said in a warm voice, “However, you can forge ahead, for they cannot hurt you.”
Lin Xun couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Brother, can you tell me why I’m here?”
Ge Yupu sighed, “Because only here you’ll find a path to survival. For boundless years since Master left his teachings on Fengshan Platform, many old fogeys have had their eyes on this fortune. You’d head straight into calamity if you were to leave the Kunlun Dominion in any other way.”
Caught off guard by this information, Lin Xun frowned, “But this place doesn’t seem to be too safe…”
The middle-aged man just now was obviously an old Emperor monster, and he had even recognized the great dao horsetail whisk from a single glance, so how could he be an ordinary expert?
Ge Yupu said, “Junior Brother, this path was left by Master, so it cannot go amiss. If you leave by taking other routes from the Kunlun Dominion, you will be under surveillance for the rest of your life even if you manage to escape once.”
A lifetime of being watched!
Lin Xun’s blood ran cold just thinking about it.
“Senior Brother, you…”
It was also at this moment that Ge Yupu’s figure became blurry. Strands of light evaporated from him, obviously telling him that he was about to dissipate.
“Junior Brother, take the Three Thousand Vicissitudes and just forge ahead,” exhorted Ge Yupu with a gentle smile like an elder who only wanted the best for his young one.
The moment his voice fell, he had vanished.
Lin Xun was in a daze as he clutched the whisk firmly. Then, he took a deep breath and looked into the empty universe.
Buzz~
The Three Thousand Vicissitudes diffused a rain of an invisible power, bathing Lin Xun in it and carrying him into the depths of the void.
Like before, there was nothing along the way.
Swish!
Lin Xun didn’t know how much time had passed when he saw a daoist with the appearance of a handsome teenager flying toward him from a distance. The other party’s mount was a yellow gourd that spewed chaos qi.
With a warm smile and a clear gaze, he said, “Little friend, if you can block my one sword strike, I’ll leave immediately.”
Lin Xun gasped. This cultivator looked like a teenager, but he was, in fact, another old monster of the Emperor stage!
“Leave it to me, Junior Brother,” a boisterous laugh suddenly rang out from the Three Thousand Vicissitudes.
Then, a tall figure swept out. With sharp brows and starry eyes, he looked like an unconventional and unrestrained hero.
A forgotten memory was drawn out from the depth of Lin Xun’s mind. He instantly recalled that he had seen this young man during the Dao Lantern Festival’s test at Cangwu Mountain!
“Senior Brother Li Xuanwei?” His heart trembled.
“That’s me,” replied the man with a grin.
In the distance, the smile on the daoist’s face was replaced by a grave look, and he started emitting a terrifying aura that covered all directions.
A daoist sword appeared in his hand. Taking a deep breath, he declared, stressing every word, “I have a sword that can wipe out ten thousand dao paths!”
Boom!
The daoist sword slashed across the void like a heavenly rift, blasting out a sword qi.
At the same time, Li Xuanwei’s sleeves fluttered as he flicked his fingers. The space around them suddenly took on a vast and heavy atmosphere.
Vaguely, there was a green lotus swaying beautifully. Its petals bloomed layer by layer, blocking the incoming sword qi.
When the sword qi subsided, the lotus petals fell apart, and the flower withered.
“As expected of the Green Lotus Grotto Art, truly worthy of being a peak world-class dao scripture. I shall take my leave.”
The daoist expert put away his sword with a long sigh and left on his yellow gourd.
He had said that he would leave if his one sword strike was blocked, so that was what he did.
“Many thanks.” Li Xuanwei cupped his fist.
Meanwhile, there was visible astonishment on Lin Xun’s face.
