Remarkable!

Who would have thought that Golden Armor King, who once threatened to capture Lin Xun as a slave, would be beheaded on the day that Lin Xun arrived in the Southwest Province.

Even his territory of Yin Soul Mountain was trampled by Lin Xun in one swoop, which resulted in the miserable deaths of hundreds of thousands of monster-beasts across the mountains.

The news struck the world like a thunderbolt shooting down from the sky, shaking the heavens and earth, and causing uproar everywhere.

Young Master Lin...is too fierce!

Not to mention ordinary people, even the major clans and sects in the empire, as well as the powerful generals and leaders who wielded great power in the army, were all shaken by the news.

Around one month ago, when Lin Xun single-handedly defeated the Zuo and Qin Clans and beheaded the leaders of nineteen aristocratic clans. It had a blood-chilling and deterring impact.

On the other hand, this battle was thrilling and exciting!

This was because Lin Xun was helping the empire eradicate problems and troubles by destroying the stronghold that the monster-beast army had in the Southwest Province of the empire.

It was so satisfying!

In the past ten years, the empire had been unstable and in turmoil, almost oppressed to the point of being suffocated by the monster-beast forces.

But now, the brilliance and strength that Lin Xun demonstrated in battle uplifted everyone in the empire and made them feel extremely proud and elated.

The empire is so lucky to have a god-like person like Young Master Lin!

Many people were smiling ear to ear, feeling much at ease. In the past years, countless lives of the empire were lost under the violence of the monster beast army.

Now, Lin Xun countered back in the strongest manner and defeated the monster-beast army, killed Golden Armor King, devastated Yin Soul Mountain, and eradicated the serious problem in the Southwest Province of the empire!

Some of the scenes that happened on Yin Soul Mountain were recorded onto bamboo slips by cultivators and very quickly spread throughout the empire.

Everyone was astonished when they saw that the Yin Soul Mountain Range had been turned to rubble with corpses strewn everywhere and the earth soaked with blood.

The most shocking had to be the head of Golden Armor King hanging outside Haze City!

Didnt those monster-beasts kings make a huge fuss that Young Master Lin was just seeking death? Would they dare to show up now?

Its so satisfying! We cultivators should take Young Master Lin as our role modelact and kill decisively and fight for peace for all citizens in the empire!

As the news of this earthshaking battle continued to circulate throughout the empire, countless cultivators felt feelings of awe and reverence for Lin Xun.

The matter had a huge influential impact. It not only dispelled the haze that hung around the empire for more than ten years, boosting the morale of the entire empire, but also significantly eased the turmoil in the empire.

In the imperial palace, when Zhao Jingxuan learned about this matter, she immediately rewarded the Lin Clan of Mind Cleansing Peak in the name of the empire!

It was said that the rewards sent to the Lin Clan from the imperial palace treasury that day were so generous that it drew envious looks from even the high clans.

But no one dared to say anything!

And Zhao Jingxuan was not stingy at all, and she even took the opportunity to issue another decree: Anyone who has the ambition of killing enemies for the empire will receive similar rewards!

Suddenly, the entire empire was stirred up, and countless cultivators were burning with enthusiasm. They threw themselves onto the battlefield, following the footsteps of Lin Xun, and slaughtered monster-beasts.

In the Chi Clan residence.

I have to accept that I am old Chi Lingxiao sighed and then he cast a glance at Chi Cangmei who was standing next to him. Why dont you personally pay the Lin Clan a visit and try to propose marriage with the Lin Clan?

Marriage? Chi Cangmei looked flabbergasted. I will never marry Lin Xun!

For a while, Chi Lingxiao didnt know whether to laugh or cry. Who else do you think, except for Her Highness Princess Jingxuan, is worthy of Lin Xun in the empire?

He continued after a pause, Your younger sister is almost sixteen years old this year. Go visit the Lin Clan and see if any sons of the Lin Clan catch your eye. As a father, I will marry off your sister even if I have to embarrass myself. This will ensure a good relationship between the Lin Clan and the Chi Clan.

Chi Cangmei sighed to herself. Although she did not agree to this, she also knew that she could not change her fathers decision.

He is doing this for the future of the Chi Clan, even if it means sacrificing my sisters happiness...

You should think on the bright side. If your sister marries into the Lin Clan, then perhaps...her destiny will also change, Chi Lingxiao comforted in a gentle voice.

At the same time, the other high clans in the Forbidden City, including the Hua, Song, Qi and Xie clans were also planning and discussing how to build friendly relationships with the Lin Clan.

Undoubtedly, marriage was the most direct and effective way.

But the problem was that, given the current power of the Lin Clan, would they agree?

This incident also caused uproars among the monster-beast forces.

As the saying went, the fox is sad at the death of the hare. The death of a monster-beast king shocked many other monster-beast kings and induced fear into them.

Golden Armor King is a fierce character at the seventh longevity tribulation. He is always careful and cautious. I cant imagine that a boy with the surname Lin could kill himthis is simplytoo terrifying.

He is a dangerous character and must be treated as a formidable enemy!

Go find out what Lin Xuns background is. Why have we never heard about such a powerful figure in the empire before?

Very quickly, reports about Lin Xun were presented to the monster-beast kings. They carefully studied and analyzed his origin, personality, temperament, cultivation, and experience.

A king stage cultivator of the human race deserved the attention of all major forces after he overpowered Golden Armor King.

In particular, Lin Xun was not an ordinary person. He single-handedly killed Golden Armor King with ease. He was an iron-blooded character with terrifying skills and abilities!

How could there be such a ruthless person in the empire?

Damn it! The empire was going to fall apart and collapse within a few years, but something unexpected happened. Lin Xun...must die!

Even the Magi Brute Race was alarmed by the incident and began to pay close attention to everything about Lin Xun and investigate his background, treating him as a huge threat.

In the Great Wind Thunder Wetlands in the southern part of the empire, there was a towering, rugged mountain ridge that was entirely ink-black and not a blade of grass grew.

The mountain was called Black Wind and was born only after the drastic changes in the world. In the past years, it had been taken over by the most mysterious Black Robe King among the monster-beast forces!

Black Robe, you are the third disciple I took into my sect over the eternal years. I know that you are only one step away from reaching the Saint Stage. If you manage to kill Lin Xun, then I promise that the day you get out, I will assist you in ascending Sainthood.

A space vortex emerged in the hinterland of Black Wind Mountain and the ice-cold and majestic voice of the Monster-Beast Ancestor resounded from its depths, echoing endlessly.

Black Robe King put his hands behind his back and quietly listened.

Clad in a black robe and shrouded in black fog that blurred even his face, he exuded a terrifyingly mysterious aura.

I have already ordered the other monster-beast kings to listen to your command and work with you to get rid of Lin Xun. If you have other concerns then just let me know.

Black Robe King was silent for a long while before he said aloud, Master, I am about to face the great tribulation of becoming a saint. I dont want to start any trouble during this period.

Monster-Beast Ancestor asked in surprise, Are you going to ascend to the Saint Stage by yourself?

Yes, in recent years, the world has been undergoing drastic changes, which has given rise to many incredible blessings and fortunes. I have been observing the overall situation of heaven and earth and I am very confident of ascending to the Saint Stage this time. Black Robe King spoke calmly, neither sad nor glad.

So you dont need my help? asked Monster-Beast Ancestor.

Master, what I seek is the path to true sainthood. No one else can help me but myself. But I really appreciate your good intentions, Black Robe King stated.

Haha, ambitious! Monster-Beast Ancestor cackled, but his voice was tinged with coldness. Dont forget that you would be nothing now without me.

I owe Master a great debt of gratitude and I will never forget it in my life. Black Robe King gave a cupped fist salute.

Hmph! Let me ask you againLin Xun...will you kill him? Monster-Beast Ancestors voice had turned extremely menacing and chilling.

Black Robe King was silent for a long while before he answered, Master, when I become a Saint, then I will bring you that boys head. How about that?

How long will it take? asked Monster-Beast Ancestor.

Soon Black Robe King inhaled deeply and murmured, I already feel a gleam of breakthrough. It wont be long...

Okay! I wont force you. Ill be waiting for your good news.

Monster-Beast Ancestors aura vanished.

You wont force me? If you hadnt placed a curse on my soul from the very beginning, then would I need to tolerate you to this day

Black Robe King stood silently for a long moment and couldnt help but let out a long sigh. Then, he turned around and walked out of the secret realm.

He stood atop Black Wind Mountain with his hands behind him, surveying the mountains and rivers in the distance. The name Lin Xun surfaced in his mind.

While the outside world was full of noise and commotion, Lin Xun had arrived outside Donglin City.

In the distance, the mountain ranges were vast and impressive, and the hills were huddled together to form an array of towering peaks. Under the brightening sky, it looked like a giant dragon winding through the landscape.

Many years had passed, and things had long changed.

The huge Donglin City had long been reduced to ruins, without a trace of life. The hustle and bustle of the great city could no longer be seen.

Lin Xun still remembered when he brought Xia Zhi into the city, and it was also then that Xia Zhi was taken away by the queen from the Dark Night Sacred Hall.

While he was arranged to train in the Blood Kill Camp.

Now, Xia Zhi had yet to return.

Lin Xun could not help but sigh,

So many things have changed over the years.

Immediately, he furrowed his brows.

If Scarlet Eagle King is alive, he should have heard about the death of Golden Armor King, but why has he still not appeared?

Could Scarlet Eagle King be in trouble?

After a while, Lin Xun shook his head to clear his head from all the distracting thoughts and headed towards the Great Three Thousand Mountains.

Feiyun Village.

The walls were reduced to rubble and the plants and grass had long wilted. The village had long been deserted.

That day, Lin Xun came. Looking at the aeth fields that had become overgrown with weeds, he thought about his first day in Feiyun Village. He thought of the honest and kind villagers, and he couldnt help but smile from the heart.

At that time, he was just a frail young rune apprentice.

Now, not only had his destiny been transformed completely, but even the villagers of Feiyun Village had also moved to the Mind Cleansing Peak and been living a good life.

Some of the villagers children had embarked on the path of cultivation and become part of the core force of the Mind Cleansing Peaks Lin Clan.

Flowers bloomed the same every year, but people were not the same with each.

Lin Xun strolled leisurely through the deserted village, reminiscing about the past. Eventually, he came to a stop in front of the small courtyard where he once lived.

Back then, he had an extremely weak body, and he had lost his Origin Aeth Artery. It was in that small courtyard where he discovered the Omega Secret-Realm and when his destiny took a new turn!

He was about to push open the door when his brows came together in a frown.
