Chapter 888: Attack on the Spirit



Chapter 888: Attack on the Spirit

Bai Lingxi!

Instantly, Lin Xun identified the owner of the ray of spirit power, surprising him greatly.

From his understanding, Bai Lingxi wasn’t quite a peerless genius. At best she could be called a top genius, but her primordial spirit was amazing.

She surpassed Mu Jianting, Lei Qianjun and the others, and was right on the tail of Ji Xingyao and Yu Lingkong in the high altitude.

Given the situation, it wouldn’t be long before she became the first to reach the top of the thousand-foot-high void!

Mutters of exclamation and astonishment rippled through the area. Everyone noticed the extraordinary scene.

“I remember, when we were still in the Blood Kill Camp of the Ziyao Empire, Bai Lingxi once said that she possessed the unique innate talent of Eternal Shining Stars!” Understanding dawned on Lin Xun’s face.

Eternal Shining Stars was an innate talent derived from one’s spirit. It was rated as a fourth-grade talent in the empire, but in this Spirit Lantern Illumination test, Bai Lingxi was no doubt the most dazzling character.

Her spirit power presented a brilliant golden color and a grand aura like it could shine throughout the ages.

“I knew that she would shine like the stars one day given her aptitude and talent.” Lin Xun was delighted.

He and Bai Lingxi were classmates so he also had a sense of pride to see her so successful.

But soon, his face turned overcast.

In the distance, the spirit that belonged to Yue Jianming was already struggling to advance through the black fiendish qi, but suddenly several other waves of spirit power rushed towards him, deliberately obstructing and interfering with him.

So cunning and despicable!

Lin Xun noticed that the several different spirit powers came from experts of the Blue Luan Clan and the Zhongli Clan. A total of five people were targeting Yue Jianming.

Lin Xun didn’t need to think about it to know that they attacked Yue Jianming because he was close to him.

Previously, Zhongli Wuji and Qing Lian’er had already made the threat that anyone who became friends with Lin Xun would suffer, hoping to scare the cultivators in the West Infinity World from getting near him and hoping to isolate him.

Now, Yue Jianming suffered that kind of treatment.

“Die!”

Drawing upon his spirit power, Lin Xun sped across the void like he was teleporting, rushing directly towards Yue Jianming at full-speed.

……

“You guys are too shameless!” Yue Jianming snapped, his spirit shaking.

His spirit power had been tainted by wisps of black fiendish qi and the nearby paths had been blocked by five different spirit powers. If he didn’t break out from them as soon as possible, then he could be eliminated from the test.

“Haha, don’t blame us. It’s your fault for being so close with Demon God Lin!” someone sneered coldly.

“Aren’t you afraid that Lin Xun will come to find you guys for revenge?” Yue Jianming was raging inside knowing that the shameless guys avoided dealing with Lin Xun and instead pointed their weapons at him. They were too despicable.

“Him? Haha, do you not see that he is still trapped in the lowest layer of the void—the astral wind? We all doubt he can pass this test.”

“Hey, who would have thought that Demon God Lin is so strong in combat, but his spirit power is so weak?”

They all mistakenly believed that Lin Xun was still wandering in the astral wind layer because his spirit power was too weak so they fearlessly started to bully Yue Jianming.

As for why they didn’t bully Lin Xun, it was simple—they didn’t want Lin Xun to be eliminated just yet.

Qing Lian’er, Zhongli Wuji and everyone else were waiting to kill Lin Xun once they reached the Ancient Dao Lantern Tree.

Therefore, the experts from the Blue Luan Clan and the Zhongli Clan chose to target Yue Jianming instead.

Someone said severely, “Just give up, Lin Xun can’t even protect himself. There is no way he can come to save you now!”

They knew that fighting was banned in the fourth test, which included even spirit attacks so they instead blocked off the surrounding area to prevent Yue Jianming from escaping and use the power of the black fiendish qi to strike and eliminate Yue Jianming.

“Is that right?” an ice-cold voice sounded.

The experts froze for a moment before they noticed Lin Xun’s spirit power coming into their vicinity and hovered in the air, deterring the black fiendish qi from approaching!

“This is bad!”

“Damn it, why is it like this?”

Their faces paled as they frantically controlled their spirit power to flee.

However, Lin Xun’s spirit power suddenly glowed brightly and engulfed all the black fiendish qi like a whirlpool.

And then—

The experts in the distance saw Lin Xun’s spirit power wrap around the billowing black fiendish qi and charge towards the fleeing spirit power.

He didn’t attack, but instead just passed through and released all the black fiendish qi he swallowed.

The black fiendish qi instantly drowned their spirit power.

“No—!”

“Argh!”

“Demon God Lin, you’re going to die a miserable death!” The shrill and angry screams sent chills down nearby people’s spines.

The experts nearby inhaled sharply as they watched on.

Demon God Lin is so fierce. He actually defeated five experts from the Blue Luan Clan and the Zhongli Clan.

There was no doubt that the five experts weren’t only eliminated but their spirits were also seriously injured!

“Do you want to die!” Qing Lian’er’s ice-cold and high-pitch voice pierced the air.

“Lin Xun, how could you do something so despicable and shameless?! Just you wait! When we reach the Ancient Dao Lantern Tree, I swear I, Zhongli Wuji, will be the first to kill you!” Zhongli Wuji’s face turned livid.

Not many people were able to get as far as the fourth test, but Lin Xun had more or less wiped out all the participants from the Zhongli Clan and the Blue Luan Clan except for Zhongli Wuji and Qing Lian’er!

How could they not be furious?

“Ridiculous! Your people attacked first, but now you want to put the blame on me and call me despicable. I have never seen people as shameless as you guys!” Lin Xun snorted contemptuously.

As he was speaking, he manipulated his spirit power to rise into the sky like a storm.

Rumble—

He made the black fiendish qi and turbulent streams of light seem like decors. Not only did they fail to obstruct Lin Xun one bit, but they were also crushed and shattered. Lin Xun effortlessly cleared everything in his path.

“That…” The other experts who were struggling to advance were so astonished that their eyeballs almost rolled out of their sockets. Isn’t he too fierce?

Before this, Lin Xun kept a low profile and only quietly observed the power distributed throughout the void, which made the cultivators think that his spirit power was weak.

Only now did they realize that Demon God Lin’s spirit wasn’t weak but was instead unbelievably tyrannical!

Shua!

Yue Jianming was the quickest to react. He spotted the perfect opportunity to send his spirit power charging upwards, following the path that Lin Xun cleared in the sky.

The other experts were stunned for a moment before a flash of realization struck them and they quickly tried to do the same.

Unfortunately, the cleared path had already vanished by the time they arrived, replaced by billowing black fiendish qi and turbulent streams of light.

……

“Not good!”

High in the void, Qing Lian’er, who was sprinting through the dense lightning tribulation, noticed that Lin Xun was charging towards her.

He was too powerful and unstoppable, destroying everything in his way like a sharp spear!

Qing Lian’er almost screamed out loud. Sensing danger, she exhausted all her strength to urge her spirit power to move faster in order to not let Lin Xun catch up to her.

At the same time, Zhongli Wuji, whose spirit power was located in another area, also activated all his strength like Qing Lian’er and bolted like he was about to catch fire.

Both of them cursed in their hearts.

Demon God Lin is too despicable. He pretended to be weak and fooled our companions and caused them to be eliminated from the competition.

And now, he wants to target us!

The two were not afraid to face Lin Xun in a battle, but the fourth test was a competition of spirit power and they found that Lin Xun’s spirit power was at a tyrannical level.

Based on that, how would they dare to let Lin Xun get near them?

Run!

With a stomach full of pent-up anger and resentment they bolted in full speed, even if it was embarrassing for them to flee under the gazes of so many people.

Luckily, the two acted in time and ran at full speed, so they quickly neared the end of the thousand-foot-high void.

By the time Lin Xun caught up to them, it was already too late.

Spirit Lanterns were dancing freely in the sky, which meant that Lin Xun couldn’t take advantage of the natural dangers such as the astral wind, fiendish qi and streams of light to deal with Qing Lian’er and Zhongli Wuji.

Even so, the spectating cultivators trembled inwardly. Demon God Lin’s spirit power was incredibly strong and forced Qing Lian’er and Zhongli Wuji to flee in panic.

“Lin Xun, I am going to cut you to pieces!“ Qing Lian’er regained her composure, but thinking of what happened just now, shame and fury filled her.

“Bitch likes to make trouble!” Lin Xun only countered with a few words, but it made Qing Lian’er’s face turn purple.

Zhongli Wuji didn’t utter a word, but it was not difficult to see from his livid expression that he was doing everything he could to contain his anger.

Buzz!

At this moment, a Spirit Lantern lit up in the distance, producing strange waves of energy that spread across the thousand-foot-high sky.

All the experts noticed the Spirit Lantern emitting a glow that quickly intensified and produced wisps of dreamy and magnificent lights.

Shine Brightly!

This was the first level of the Spirit Lantern.

However, before all experts could express their amazement, the Spirit Lantern became brighter and brighter, casting thousand beams of light that illuminated the night sky.

The second level of the Spirit Lantern—Beam Brilliantly!

Whose Spirit Power could be strong to light a Spirit Lantern to such brightness in the blink of an eye?
