In fact, even Lin Xun hadn’t expected to see Huangfu Shaonong’s group upon leaving the swamp.

After all, it had been four days. Who would believe that he would be able to walk out alive from that area covered in lighting law power?

After a brief surprise, a boundless killing intent had surged in Lin Xun's heart so he had attacked without hesitation, thus the thunderous sound of vibrating bowstring.

It naturally had come from the No-Nonsense Bow, and what had been fired was the Biluo Arrow.

A single shot caused one to fall into the underworld!

Boom!

An arrow raged across the sky like a light that tore through time and space. Its sharpness in this moment was so overwhelming that it dimmed the sky.

Huangfu Shaonong and his companions quickly reacted. They dodged while also activating their armor forces and deploying all kinds of treasures to defend themselves.

Bang!

Sparks flew, and blood cascaded down.

The bronze shield held up by a Heaven and Earth Dao Court disciple as well as the defensive aura enveloping him were skewered by the bright arrow light without any obstruction.

The arrow then entered his flesh. When he looked down, he saw a bloody hole in his heart!

“How…” He could only utter a single word before collapsing to the ground with a loud thud.

What the arrow had pierced was more than just his heart; his spirit had also been shattered in an instant!

One arrow hit, one life gone!

Chills creeped up the hearts of Huangfu Shaonong’s group. They suddenly recalled that not long ago on the road, many Primordial Dao Court disciples of Kong Zhao's group had died under Lin Xun's bow and arrow.

Buzz!

Huangfu Shaonong summoned the violet cauldron of seventy-two flying swords and blasted an all-out attack at Lin Xun in the distance.

His companions also didn't dare to delay and struck with all their might.

However, Lin Xun didn't even give them a chance to get near him, pulling out his No-Nonsense Bow and firing three arrows in one breath.

Twang! Twang! Twang!

The sounds the bowstring made were like the roars of a dragon. The three arrows tore through the heavens with tremendous murderous intent.

Poof!

Scarlet blood splashed as a woman’s head was pierced between the brows. As the force blasted open her skull, she died with a tragic scream.

Clang!

Another arrow was blocked by a spear. Amidst the sound of collision, the wielder of the spear was viciously knocked flying. Blood sprayed out from his mouth and nose.

Bang!

The last arrow shattered a flying sword of a blue-clad man. The man's face paled as he almost fell from the air.

Three arrows fired, one person was killed, two seriously wounded!

Watching that kind of acute and rapid killing power, the eyes of Huangfu Shaonong’s group bulged out in fury.

Rumble~

Approaching Lin Xun, they started casting their trump cards at full capacity. An array of treasures and skills whistled out with dazzling lights that caused heaven and earth to lose color and threw the region into turmoil.

Lin Xun did not retreat but instead called upon the Dao Lifeless Seal and Dao Structureless Flag. Then, he himself charged forward while manifesting his Primal Chaos Great Dao Field.

For a time, the swampy land presented a scene of ruins and chaos and seemed like it was about to be blown apart.

In the middle of it all, Lin Xun was shrouded in chaotic vapors. His every movement he had the might to make heavens crumble and shatter the universe beyond.

Releasing all of his cultivation and laws, he couldn’t be more domineering at this moment. In addition, the Dao Lifeless Seal and Dao Structureless Flag were restraining any Emperor-grade treasures that tried to attack him from the sides.

Just a few moments later, in a deafening explosion, the blue-clad man, who had been wounded by the previous impact, was blown up by the fist force from Lin Xun’s punch.

Splash!

Bloody pieces of flesh flew. The gory scene stimulated Huangfu Shaonong’s group to the point their eyes turned red.

“Kill him!” they roared with rage. As each of them utilized their full power, they filled the sky with rolling divine might and monstrous killing intent.

However, no matter how they attacked, they were unable to break through Lin Xun's Primal Chaos Great Dao Field, let alone injuring him.

Boom!

Before long, one more person was executed in a split second amidst a tidal wave of sword chants, with the body cut into countless pieces by an ocean of Taixuan sword qi!

Lin Xun didn't spare his latest victim a glance as he rushed toward another target without mercy.

His overbearing attitude and his unstoppable momentum to conquer the whole field were simply like that of an unrivaled demon god!

Huangfu Shaonong and his group were unable to believe their eyes.

They had besieged Lin Xun just a few days ago, and despite having not been able to gain any advantage over him at the time, they had still been evenly matched.

Now, however, they were at a complete disadvantage, suppressed to the point that they could barely lift their heads!

The reason was actually quite simple.

Before the battle a few days ago, Lin Xun's energy had been depleted and had yet to recover more than half.

It was a different story now as not only his physical condition had returned to its peak state, but he had also furthered his cultivation during the enlightenment over the last few days!

Under these circumstances, the power that Lin Xun erupted with was naturally nothing that the previous him could compare to.

“Die!”

A cup of tea time into the fight, Lin Xun executed the Thorn of Sharpness. As he extended his finger, an expert who was four feet away from him died on the spot.

This made the fifth opponent that Lin Xun had killed in this battle!

Adding the two that had died at his hands several days ago, that was a total of seven Heaven and Earth core disciples dead!

This was definitely a shocking number. If the world knew about this, there would most likely be a huge, shocking uproar.

After all, each and every one of them was a dominating figure in the Supreme Saint-King Stage, a one-in-a-million talent!

“Die!”

As Lin Xun charged over, an opponent couldn't dodge in time and got swallowed by Primal Chaos Great Dao Field. Their body and spirit ground down inch by inch before the person fell into oblivion.

“Lin Xun, you must die!” Huangfu Shaonong was completely triggered. He was no longer able to return from the verge of going crazy.

In order to deal with Lin Xun, he had made ample preparations and never dared to be careless since he treated him as his number one enemy.

However, the terror of this enemy still exceeded his every expectation, so heaven-defying that it overturned all of his perceptions and speculations.

Lin Xun's eyes were cold and indifferent, and he was unrelenting in his strikes.

There had been as many as seventeen experts following Huangfu Shaonong this time, but now there were only nine left. The casualty rate had almost reached fifty percent.

However, Lin Xun had no pity for them.

The purpose of this trip to the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone was to compete for the chaos treasure, but whether it was Kong Zhao’s group of Primordial Dao Court disciples or Huangfu Shaonong’s group of Heaven and Earth Dao Court disciples, all of them regarded him as a thorn in their side and spared no effort in trying to kill him.

How could Lin Xun not be angry?

On top of that, he no longer had any scruples since his identity had long been exposed. Therefore, it was impossible for him to show any mercy.

Poof!

Soon, another person was taken down. The Broken Blade slit their throat and chopped off their head, spilling hot, scarlet blood.

The region was in disarray, bloody, and tragic. Emperor-grade treasures clashed and dao arts collided, staging a battle that could only be described as appalling.

And on the battlefield, Lin Xun was killing like a gust of wind!

“Go!” One of them was eventually unable to hold up and turned to flee in fright.

Seeing this, the others followed suit.

There was no one who wasn't scared of death.

Even someone as lofty as an Emperor would still panic and cower in fear when truly faced with death.

Not to mention that these Heaven and Earth Dao Court disciples had an extremely bright future ahead of them, a life of fame and admiration envied by the world. As such, who was willing to perish here?

Lin Xun's power shocked and frightened them. By this point, their fighting spirit had collapsed and started to be replaced by panic and horror.

If they wanted to live, then escaping was their only option!

When Huangfu Shaonong saw this, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of sorrow, and his blood ran cold.

He knew that their momentum had gone!

Huangfu Shaonong also fled, running even faster than the others.

Dignity, pride, or whatever, everything was thrown to the back of his mind.

He was second on the All Heavens Saint-King Rankings, a dazzling genius who was known throughout the nebula and unanimously regarded highly by many old monsters….

However, right now, he only wanted to survive!

Lin Xun wasn't surprised to see this, or rather, he had seen more than his fair share of similar occurrences over all the years of fighting and killing.

No matter the status of the opponents or how powerful they were, they would inevitably flee upon realizing that they couldn’t win.

However, Lin Xun did not intend to stop here.

Ignoring the others, he chased after Huangfu Shaonong!

After all, it was always recommended to capture the leader first. Once Huangfu Shaonong went down, the other disciples of Heaven and Earth Dao Court would lose their pillar of support.

From afar, Lin Xun extended a finger.

Great Diffusion Void Breaker Finger – Omni-Finger!

Tens of thousands of feet away, a teleporting Huangfu Shaonong suddenly swung his palm and blocked the finger force.

Kaboom!

The collision merely caused Huangfu Shaonong to stagger.

However, before he could recover, an exploding

twang

resounded, followed by a divine arrow that ripped through the air with an eye-piercing, world-destroying, and savage aura.

“Rise!” shouted Huangfu Shaonong.

His violet cauldron of seventy-two swords swept out. After another shocking collision, this arrow was also blocked.

However, it had managed to delay him. When Huangfu Shaonong was about to continue his escape, he saw that Lin Xun had already seized the opportunity to approach in a flash of teleportation.

“I didn’t think that the second on the All Heavens Saint-King Rankings, the mighty Huangfu Shaonong, could also be scared out of his wits.”

Lin Xun punched out as he said that. Laced with his Great Dao Field and wondrous dao laws, his fist shattered the void around like breaking fragile glass.

“Lin Xun, be forgiving where possible, or your relentless onslaught may just lead to an ugly death later.” Huangfu Shaonong glowered after taking a deep breath. His aura heightened as he gathered all his strength, and he resisted the punch head-on.

The next second, he was shaken into staggering back. His face alternated between green and white as a wave of bitterness and sadness washed through his heart.

It turned out that, one-on-one, even he, the second talent on All Heavens Saint-King Rankings…was actually so powerless as well!

At this moment, Huangfu Shaonong, who had always been confident and proud about his heritage and strength, suffered an incomparably heavy blow to his state of mind.

“You fled when you found out you couldn’t win, and you made threats when you found out you couldn’t escape. Such a lousy showing is commonly seen, but I just didn't expect that it could come from a character like you. This is simply disappointing.”

Lin Xun didn't hide his contempt as he continued attacking. In the shroud of his Primal Chaos Great Dao Field, he was like a demon god who pushed across everything with astonishing killing momentum.
