Chapter 1624: Whole World Shaken

Ancient Wasteland Domain, Divine Apparatus Pavilion.

In front of a quiet and secluded temple building, Mister Miaoxuan put his hands behind his back and gazed blankly into the distance, his heart as unsettled as the sea.

Three years had passed since the opening of the Nine Domains Battlefield. Today, if nothing unexpected happened, the Conflict of the Nine Domains would come to an end.

This time, could the Ancient Wasteland Domain break their trend of defeat and survive to the end?

Even someone like Mister Miaoxuan did not know.

“In the first Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Ancient Wasteland Camp suffered a disastrous defeat and innumerable casualties. In the end, not one person returned alive.

“In the second Conflict of the Nine Domains, the Ancient Wasteland Camp only held on for less than half a year before being crushed completely. In the end, only a dozen people luckily managed to escape death…

“What will the result be this time?”

The more Mister Miaoxuan thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

The great age had come and gave birth to a batch of true supreme figures, but when compared to those in the other eight domains, there was still a huge gap between them!

After a long period of silence, Mister Miaoxuan suddenly thought of something that his senior brother Mister Shen said before he left three years ago.

“On the Nine Domains Battlefield, if there is a glimmer of hope that the Ancient Wasteland Camp can turn the situation around, then this glimmer of hope lies with the kid Lin Xun.”

However, could Lin Xun really succeed?

Mister Miaoxuan was not sure at all.

How terrifying and brutal was the Nine Domains Battlefield? It was impossible to turn things around with just the power of one person!

Boom!

At this moment, a majestic dao sound suddenly rang in the sky, and the power of the laws of heaven and earth rumbled and buzzed in different areas throughout the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

The Conflict of the Nine Domains had ended!

Mister Miaoxuan raised his head abruptly, and his eyes beamed with divine light, as if capable of seeing through the mysteries of the nine heavens.

Almost at the same time, the ancient sects and clans throughout the Ancient Wasteland Domain all noticed the strange phenomenon in the sky.

“Three years have passed, the Conflict of the Nine Domains ends today!”

“This time, our Ancient Wasteland Camp…what will be its battle outcome?”

“I hope... I hope you all come back alive…”

“It must…it must not be bad news. We have lost too many times and been humiliated for far too long. If we lose again, it will be difficult to lift our heads in the future.”

The big shots, old monsters, and influential figures of the ancient sects and clans could not help but tense up nervously.

Rumble—

Majestic dao sounds continued to ring endlessly in the sky, reverberating throughout the vast Ancient Wasteland Domain, the boundless territory, and different areas and cities.

It alarmed even ordinary cultivators and made them realize that the Conflict of the Nine Domains that had been happening for the past three years was finally coming to an end today!

“This time, can our Ancient Wasteland Domain…win?”

Many people were very tense.

The Conflict of the Nine Domains did not only concern the honor of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, but also affected whether it could continue to stand in the future.

Who wouldn’t care?

“Forget about winning, I just hope we won’t lose too badly...”

Many people sighed to themselves.

Everyone knew that after two disastrous defeats in the past and years of decline, it was extremely difficult for the Ancient Wasteland Camp to score a victory in the Conflict of the Nine Domains!

Dao sounds were still rumbling in the sky, like the deep and grand call of a bugle horn at the end of a battle, sending all living beings in the Ancient Wasteland Domain into a state of unease, nervousness, and restlessness.

They all anxiously waited for the result!

In different areas of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, figures began to emerge in front of the teleportation portals that led to the Nine Domains Battlefield.

……

Xuanhuang Sacred Mountain.

The thousand foot tall, golden mountain, which was located in the northern part of the East Victory World, was already swamped with countless people.

Almost all those figures were important figures from various ancient orthodoxies, including the Origin God Sect, Moon Sun Sacred Palace, and the Great One Sect.

Their gazes were all fixed on the summit of Xuanhuang Mountain, where a portal leading to the Nine Domains Battlefield stood.

Amidst the ringing of dao sounds from the sky, the portal buzzed and slowly opened up.

Then—

Figures emerged one after another from the teleportation portal.

“They’re back!”

“Fantastic! I’m glad there are surviving disciples returning!”

Suddenly, the buzz rose to an excited clamor. Many people looked surprised and emotional.

This was because in the past, when the Conflict of the Nine Domains ended, only a handful of cultivators were able to return from the Nine Domains Battlefield alive.

But now, as soon as the third Conflict of the Nine Domains had ended, numerous figures were unexpectedly emerging!

An old monster of the Moon Sun Sacred Palace couldn’t help but ask, “How was the battle?” The sudden question was like a clap of thunder in everyone’s ear.

All of a sudden, the lively atmosphere turned silent and still.

“Patriarch, we won!” Mi Hengzhen couldn’t help grinning as he walked out of the teleportation array.

We won?

The entire area fell silent once again, and countless old monsters almost couldn’t believe what they heard.

“Hengzhen, you mean...our Ancient Wasteland Camp won?” The old monster had to ask again.

Mi Hengzhen took a deep breath and explained, “That’s correct, our Ancient Wasteland Camp won. A year ago, we crushed the other eight domain camps and defeated all enemies!”

His every word resounded throughout the world like a crash of thunder, hitting the hearts of everyone.

They stared wide-eyed at one another, as if they had heard about an impossible miracle. It took them a while to recover from the shock.

Crushed the eight domains camp?

Defeated all enemies?

That was…simply impossible!

“Hengzhen, I’ll ask again, is…this true?” The old monster’s expression was dazed as if he did not believe it.

The other cultivators who returned from the Nine Domains Battlefield with Mi Hengzhen also could not help smiling, emotions stirring within them. Let alone the influential figures, even they felt like everything they had experienced on the Nine Domains Battlefield was a dream.

Mi Hengzhen said firmly, “Patriarch, have no doubt, we really won this time! In this Conflict of the Nine Domains, our Ancient Wasteland Domain had a sweeping victory, dominating the other eight domains and standing unrivaled!”

“We…really won!” An old monster screamed out uncontrollably, his eyes welling up with emotions.

“Quick, tell me, I want to know how you defeated those bastards from the eight domains. This is a joyous event that has never happened before!” One of the influential figures was ecstatic.

“We won...we won...hahaha...Our Ancient Wasteland Domain finally wiped away the past shame and seized total victory!” Someone laughed maniacally as tears rolled down his face.

It was not easy!

For eternity, the Ancient Wasteland Domain had suffered countless humiliations and went through bloodshed in the previous Conflicts of the Nine Domains. The anger and hatred that had been piling up in their hearts were higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.

Now, they got revenge!

Suddenly, the entire vicinity of Xuanhuang Sacred Mountain was buzzing like never, with cheers and applause echoing to the clouds.

Similar situations were happening in front of different teleportation portals across the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

Xiao Cangtian, Ye Chen, Ruowu, Xiao Qinghe, Yue Jianming, Ye Mohe, Ji Xingyao and other top cultivators also returned to the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

They also brought with them good news and reports of victory in the Conflict of the Nine Domains!

The news caused a sensation in the world, and the entire Ancient Wasteland Domain was completely stirred up.

As the news of the victory spread like a hurricane, the details about this overwhelming victory also circulated.

“What? Lin Xun suppressed the enemies of the eight domains by himself?”

The first to receive the news were of course the ancient orthodoxies in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. They all lost control of their emotions when they heard about Lin Xun’s feats on the Nine Domains Battlefield.

“How is that possible? How did he do that?”

𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

“How can one person turn things around by himself?”

It was unknown how many gasps and exclamations rang out, or how many influential figures became restless when they heard about the news.

Three years ago, before everyone entered the Nine Domains Battlefield, two supreme Saints were born in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, namely Shaohao and Ruowu.

The pair became the most dazzling existences in the Ancient Wasteland Domain like the sun and the moon in the sky.

When that happened, Lin Xun had not yet reached the Supreme Saint Stage and was still a supreme king of the Ninth Longevity Tribulation Stage. Although he was known all over the world, to many ancient orthodoxies, he was still far from being an extraordinary existence.

As the saying went, before Saints, everyone was like ants!

But three years later, everything about Lin Xun was completely different.

He was not only a supreme Saint, but stood invincible at this cultivation stage. He swept everything before him on the Nine Domains Battlefield like he was unstoppable!

This was undoubtedly unbelievable!

“Who would have thought… Who would have thought…”

Many important figures sighed with complex emotions.

Lin Xun, without the backing of any clan or sect, offended countless powerful forces when he rose to fame in the Ancient Wasteland Domain and this set off many storms.

Some people hated him, some detested him, some admired him, and some thought highly of him.

But regardless, after his rise, he had never joined any sect or clan, and had always fought alone, even to this day.

What could one person do?

The ancient orthodoxies believed that one person would struggle to succeed in life without the support and backing of a powerful force!

Unexpectedly, it was this one person who dominated the Nine Domains Battlefield and crushed the eight domain camps, becoming known as the ‘Number One of the Nine Domains Battlefield’!

It was this person who rebuilt the City of Protection of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, protected all the cultivators of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, and turned the tide and avenged the past sages of the Ancient Wasteland Domain!

It was also this person who broke through to the Supreme Saint Stage, becoming the supreme among Saints, and won the victory for the Ancient Wasteland Camp in the Conflict of the Nine Domains!

From now on, who would dare to underestimate this person?

“This favor is greater than anything. No matter who it is, no matter which force they belong to, they have to acknowledge this favor, because without Lin Xun, the Ancient Wasteland Domain would not exist today!” An old monster spoke in a resounding and emotional voice.

This view was shared by many sects and clans.

That was correct. Lin Xun deserved all the credit for the overwhelming victory of the Ancient Wasteland Domain in the Conflict of the Nine Domains.

His supreme achievements were enough to benefit all living beings, bless the world, go down in history and be remembered by future generations!

Even those who hated, detested and viewed Lin Xun an enemy were unable to change this fact!
