Chapter 1281 Friend of Toady

Chapter 1281 Friend of Toady

This was deliberate teasing!

Everyone realized that from the beginning, Chi Lingxiao had deliberately teased Lin Xun. His intention might not be malevolent, but it definitely was bad.

“Why would I need a rest when I’m just dealing with a piece of trash like you?” Lin Xun’s eyes were ice-cold.

Trash!

A sudden hush fell over the audience when they heard that word.

In the Upper Nine Realms, who would dare to use that word to call someone who was ranked in the top ten of the Genius Gold Rankings?

This was tantamount to publicly insulting Chi Lingxiao!

As expected, Chi Lingxiao’s face turned cold and hostile, and his eyes blazed with terrifying light. “How dare you insult me?”

“Insult others and they will do the same. I called you rubbish, do you not agree?”

Lin Xun spoke indifferently, but the words struck terror into many people’s hearts.

Only then did they realize that Chi Lingxiao might be called a fierce character who did whatever he wanted and ignored all rules and laws.

But similarly, Demon God Lin was no pushover!

When it came to courage, he was well known throughout the entire Upper Nine Realms!

“Fellow cultivator Chi, I already reminded you not to go too far. Look, retribution is here now,” Lin Xue said indifferently.

Chi Lingxiao’s face turned dark.

“I also want to see what Demon God Lin is capable of for him to speak so arrogantly!”

Boom!

Chi Lingxiao soared into the sky, his fiery red hair dancing wildly in the air. Behind him, scenes of world destruction such as the six hell prisons collapsing and ghosts and gods perishing were projected.

This was the power of the Six Prisons World Destruction Art, a top secret cultivation art throughout the ages!

The sky roared and the earth rumbled, amplifying the frightening power of Chi Lingxiao like it could wipe out the entire world.

Shua!

Lin Xun got into a fighting stance, like an arched bow ready to fire. With a wide sweep of his hand, the Broken Blade shot across the sky.

Impermanence Slash!

Anyone who had watched the duel between Lin Xun and Yun Qingbai would notice that the power of Impermanence Slash had significantly increased, as though it had undergone a transformation!

Chi Lingxiao was startled at first, but just when he was about to fight back, a bone-piercing chill flooded him, as if a blade was pressed against his throat.

His expression dramatically changed. He realized the terrifying power of that slash and did not hesitate to unleash all his strength.

“Six Hells of Sorrows!”

With a violent roar, he threw his fist forward, and six hell prisons emerged to form a force capable of suppressing the universe.

Each hell prison presented a different scene and different kind of power. Assembled together, it was akin to opening the door to the six paths of reincarnation!

This was undoubtedly Chi Lingxiao’s ultimate killing move.

Everyone was chilled to the bone as if they had fallen into an ice cave. The art could deter even ghosts and gods.

But everyone’s jaws dropped when they saw the power of Lin Xun’s slash sweep away everything in its way and tear open the six prisons as it passed with an ear-splitting explosion.

Amidst the shower of sparks, Chi Lingxiao’s arm split with a bloody wound.

In disbelief, he repeatedly stroked the injury. “You actually wounded me…”

It was utterly silent.

Lin Xun not only wounded him, but this was also his first blow in the battle. He completely overpowered his opponent!

In the distance, the clear eyes of Holy Maiden Lin Xue suddenly narrowed. Lin Xun has just survived the heavenly tribulation and his qi was very weak.

Even so, he wounded Chi Lingxiao with a swing of his blade!

How strong has he become?

“Trash will always be trash, what gave you the guts to provoke and challenge me?” As Lin Xun’s knife-cold voice rang out, he charged forward with terrifying speed. He was clearly wounded and appeared to be in a miserable state, but when he attacked, a heavy and oppressive aura assaulted the faces of everyone nearby.

“Do you want to die?!” Chi Lingxiao raged, his hair standing up in anger, and endless dao light blazing around him like flames. He looked like the sun burning in the sky.

“The Blade of Six Purgatories!”

Then, six purgatories emerged in midair, spewing out waves of flaming blades to create a large-scale blade formation—majestic, dazzling and earthshaking.

Many cultivators reeled back in horror.

With an indifferent face, Lin Xun brought the Broken Blade up to meet the attack head-on.

Boom!

The collision between the two seemed to have caused a vast explosion. The airflow raged wildly and the space was flooded with an aura of chaos.

Wherever the blazing shockwaves swept through, everything was reduced to smithereens. Even the mountains of bones collapsed and turned into dust.

It was no doubt an earthshaking showdown at the overlord level.

Everyone stood transfixed in stupefaction. Chi Lingxiao was struck once again and blasted backwards through the air by the Broken Blade. Blood was spewing from his mouth and nostrils.

The only reason his body was kept intact was because his armor had neutralized the majority of the power of the blow.

But even so, he still suffered internal injuries.

“Why are you not saying anything, trash? Weren’t you very loud and arrogant just now?” Lin Xun’s voice became increasingly cold.

The worst thing when overcoming a heavenly tribulation was being disturbed by outside interference. He had no grudge with Chi Lingxiao, but the other cultivator still actively tried to distract him during it.

This was no longer as simple as offending and provoking him!

Therefore, Lin Xun did not hold back at all when attacking.

Chi Lingxiao seethed at being insulted and called a piece of trash, almost coughing up blood in rage. Ever since he had come into the world, he had been rising by stepping on the corpses of many talented geniuses. The mention of his name would make anyone turn pale. When had he ever been insulted like that?!

“Die!” Chi Lingxiao roared, erupting completely.

Bang!

But very quickly, he was defeated once again. Lin Xun’s punch broke his jaw and fractured several of his teeth. His cheeks were left swollen and bruised.

Everyone remembered what Lin Xun had just said: He would pull out Chi Lingxiao’s tongue and smash his mouth!

Holy Maiden Lin Xue could no longer remain calm.

She could already tell that Chi Lingxiao was inferior in terms of strength and was no match for Lin Xun.

As time went by, Lin Xun’s qi and aura was clearly recovering at an alarming rate, becoming more and more terrifying.

It was obvious that his weakened body after the tribulation was rapidly being restored, and his cultivation level was no longer at the third longevity tribulation!

“This time, Chi Lingxiao is going to suffer the consequences of his actions.” Holy Maiden Lin Xue sighed.

Sure enough, as soon as this thought came to her mind, Chi Lingxiao screamed in fury.

Blood was trickling down the sides of his swollen and red mouth. He had taken another hit, which crushed his jaw and smashed his face to almost the point of being unrecognizable.

This was perhaps why they said a loose tongue brings a lot of trouble.

Minutes ago, Chi Lingxiao was so arrogant and domineering and had no qualms speaking his mind when Lin Xun was challenging the tribulation.

But now, even the audience could not help but wince at his tragic appearance and could not bear to watch.

After all, he was an overlord-like figure in the top ten of the Genius Gold Rankings, yet he was being beaten to such a horrible state. It was indeed tragic.

It was foreseeable that when the news of this battle spread, Chi Lingxiao would become a well-known tragic figure.

The amazing strength that Lin Xun demonstrated made everyone think of the same thing: Was he really the person who chased down Yun Qingbai a few days ago?

Clang!

The Broken Blade was slashing through the air in the direction of Chi Lingxiao when someone cried out—

“Big Brother, please wait!”

Buzz!

The Broken Blade abruptly halted three inches away from the center of Chi Lingxiao’s eyebrows. The razor sharp light ray on its tip pierced the skin between his eyebrows and drew blood.

Imaginably, if the blade slashed downwards, Chi Lingxiao would definitely be split in half!

Chi Lingxiao was so frightened that his soul almost left his body, and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat. He felt like he had just escaped the jaws of death.

“Toady?”

Lin Xun raised his eyes to where the voice sounded from. There stood a young man in a green robe with a handsome and charming face. He was grinning at him, but there was a natural pervertedness in his appearance.

Who else would it be besides Toady?

Everyone else turned their heads to take a look at who could stop Lin Xun’s ruthless killing with a few words.

Toady scurried forward and whispered, “Big Brother, please let him go this one time. That guy has been a close friend of mine since ancient times. He also has helped me a lot in searching for Ancient Buddha Son in the Upper Nine Realms.”

They had not seen each other in over four years. Lin Xun was rather surprised and delighted to reunite with Toady here.

He gave Toady’s pleading a thought and withdrew the Broken Blade with a clang.

“You won’t be so lucky next time!”

He swept a glance over Chi Lingxiao, whose face was overcast, but he had already breathed an inward sigh of relief. When he looked at Lin Xun again, his eyes were swirling with extremely complicated emotions.

He never imagined that he would lose in such an ugly way. He did not even have the chance to counterattack!

Only when he actually faced off against Lin Xun did he understand his terror and power.

“Hahaha, kid, you got what you deserved! How many times have I told you that my big brother is no ordinary person? He is my big brother after all.”

Chi Lingxiao was in such an embarrassing state with his mouth swollen and red. Toady clutched his belly while laughing maniacally, almost squeezing tears out his eyes.

In ancient times, the reason why he and Chi Lingxiao became friends was partly because they had a similar status, but more importantly they were birds of the same feather.

Chi Lingxiao was very arrogant, domineering, wild, and lawless, which matched very well with Toady, who was an extremely proud, conceited show off.

Their friendship was rooted in appreciation and understanding for one another.

After an eternity of silence, the friends were reunited a few years ago.

This was also the reason why Toady stopped Lin Xun from killing Chi Lingxiao.

“Hmph! I can’t win against your big brother, but I can beat you with ease. Do you want to try?” Chi Lingxiao felt his face burning from being mocked by Toady.

“Let’s go and talk inside Stupa Tower.” Lin Xun glanced around and walked towards Stupa Tower.

Toady was about to follow him when he noticed Chi Lingxiao standing awkwardly. He went up to him and wrapped his arms around his shoulders, dragging him into the tower.

“My big brother is your big brother. There’s no shame in being beat by him. Come on, I’ll introduce you properly.”

Toady was very enthusiastic, while Chi Lingxiao was silent, but did not refuse.

“Fellow Cultivator Lin, can I join you all?” Holy Maiden Lin Xue suddenly spoke aloud, her voice as clear and pleasant as the sounds of nature. Merely standing there, she exuded unparalleled beauty and grace like a beautiful ice sculpture.
