Seven feet!

If Mi Wuya hadn’t been stationed in the central position and obstructed Lin Xun, he would have easily passed through already.

Even so, fear and shock filled everyone.

He’s so strong!

The present Lin Xun exuded the might and power of a berserk, invincible warrior, which crushed everyone’s fighting spirit, leaving them shaken and almost unable to continue to battle.

Especially when, with just a flick of his finger, he killed three peerless figures with the Taixuan sword qi and devoured four into the grand abyss!

Even though Jing Tiannan and Ling Hongzhuang tried to stop him, they were knocked back with one blow!

Those scenes simply turned everyone’s minds upside down.

After all, everyone thought that Lin Xun was severely wounded and hanging on his last breath. Even if he fought with his all, he would not be able to hold on for long.

Now…

No one was so sure of his condition!

Rumble—

The battle grew increasingly intense. Dao sounds echoed endlessly, spreading to all directions.

Lin Xun, who had sunk into a complete combative state, was like a divine being unleashing his most powerful dao and skills!

“The east represents wood, the south fire, the west metal, the north water and the central area represents earth. Yellow is the color of the center and the court refers to the center of the four directions...”

After activating the Taixuan Sword Scripture and the Great Endless Devour Scripture, the essence and secrets of the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic rippled in Lin Xun’s mind.

All of a sudden, Lin Xun’s aura changed once again, giving off the majestic aura of ‘I am at the center of the great dao.’

It was as if a divine being was sitting within his body, radiating a divine brilliance!

Shua!

Lin Xun suddenly thrust up one finger, activating the Thorn of Sharpness. The thorn of blindingly bright light showed a complete new change, exhibiting a chilling, devouring power.

A cultivator attempted to deal with it head-on, only for it to pierce straight through his shoulder, while the devouring power condensed within the thorn corroded most of his body. All he could do was let out a piercing, terrified scream.

He thought that he had only been pierced in the shoulder and had survived the calamity, but he never imagined that the thorn would possess such frightening devouring power that killed him on the spot!

Boom!

Next, two beams of flame shot out from Lin Xun’s eyes as the power of wither and thrive surged from the abyss around him. In his hand, the Seal of All Beings took shape...

He had integrated the innate abilities and divine powers of the five viscera spirits into his own cultivation and unleashed them fully with his own power.

“Ah—”

A shrill scream rang out as the body of a cultivator was incinerated into ashes; both his body and spirit were obliterated. He stood no chance against the power of the Eyes of Smoldering Flames.

At the same time, the power of wither and thrive and the Seal of All Beings, the innate talents of the Green Wood Dao Body and the Yellow Earth Dao Body, respectively, blasted away the experts coming at Lin Xun from the other direction. Some staggered back, coughing up blood, while others were injured and screaming in pain.

It was a chaotic and turbulent scene.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun took another step forward, coming within six feet of the Gate of Ruination. Bathed in blood, his fighting stance stood out starkly from everyone else!

“So overbearing!” Mi Wuya had a solemn expression on his face, and a sacred glow surrounded him.

He charged at Lin Xun, every one of his movements seemingly altering the very fabric of the great void. His every little move and gesture was filled with the dao of perfection.

It was precisely due to his obstruction that Lin Xun’s offensive was thwarted. This demonstrated the terror of Mi Wuya.

Even Lin Xun who was fighting with his all found it difficult to completely suppress and defeat Mi Wuya.

“Kill!”

Jing Tiannan roared, his long hair flying around him.

He rushed forward with all his might, unleashing his trump cards in a brilliant display, exuding a fearsome power that shook the very sky.

No one dared to let down their guard at this moment, including Ling Hongzhuang!

However, the other cultivators’ fighting spirits had already been shaken, leaving them paralyzed with fear.

When Lin Xun was previously surrounded by Mi Wuya and others, he was still able to slaughter enemies one after another. His fierceness and ruthlessness instilled fear in those around him, forcing them to hesitate with every move.

Who would not worry about being the next victim?

Therefore, whenever they sensed danger, their first reaction was to move away and they dared not linger around.

If Lin Xun was dead, no one knew who would take over the platform. However, if they all met with disaster before Lin Xun was dead, then it would be over for them all.

Therefore, no more than a dozen people were actively fighting against Lin Xun, including peerless figures such as Mi Wuya and Jing Tiannan.

Only those dozen people were determined to take over the platform that Lin Xun was on!

Although the other experts had made no great efforts to attack Lin Xun, it instead made Mi Wuya and the others no longer as restrained as they were before.

After all, sometimes weak teammates were an issue.

However, the experts who dared not face Lin Xun directly still did not give up. Instead, they were like haunting ghosts, waiting for the right opportunity to strike, which brought a lot of trouble to Lin Xun.

Unfortunately for them, Lin Xun, who had sunk into an extreme combative state, had nothing else in his eyes, mind and soul except for thoughts to kill the enemy. There was nothing he was afraid of.

Rumble!

Thunder raged and lightning tore through the air.

The secrets of the Great Faded Lightning Scripture which he had just comprehended not long ago were also unleashed to its fullest.

Thunder and lightning, filled with destruction and murderous intent, were the most powerful killing force in the world.

His Primal Chaos Dao Field seemed to transform into a huge abyss of thunderbolts. Violent lightning arced across the great dao field, splitting the world with explosive energy, growing more and more terrifying.

Before long, Mi Wuya was struck by a blindingly bright lightning bolt and was sent swaying like crazy, forcing him to retreat.

Jing Tiannan, Ling Hongzhuang and others were also overpowered by the terrifying thunderstorm and had to counter with all their might.

Under such circumstances—

Bang! Bang!

With two muffled explosions, two bodies were hurled skyward, killed by the terrifying thunderbolts. They dissipated into ashes and not a trace of them remained in the world.

Lin Xun took another step forward.

He stood only five feet away from the Gate of Ruination!

However, no one was aware that the present Lin Xun had forgotten everything and all that was in his mind was a blazing fighting spirit.

On the battlefield, everyone paled with shock.

……

When the battle first broke out in front of the Gate of Ruination, over forty cultivators had gathered, all of whom were authority figures of the same cultivation stage and possessed terrifying supreme foundations. Now, almost twenty had been ruthlessly slaughtered by Lin Xun.

This was no doubt a number that would shake the world and cause a huge uproar if the matter spread out.

After all, the number included many peerless monsters who were as strong as Huangfu Shaonong.

For example, Feng Beiling and Wen Yu.

Either they were characters admired and respected by the world, or they were undefeatable existences of a star field. Yet, Lin Xun had killed them by himself!

If it was in the outside world, such carnage would never have happened.

This was because no old monster of any sect or clan would do nothing and watch their disciple or descendant being killed.

However, the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone was not like the outside world. At least, Emperors such as Taishu Hong could only wait outside, unable to interfere or know what was happening inside.

“The blood and corpses are paving a path of invincibility for him. Or rather, his invincible path is being built in this bloodshed...” Ling Kezi muttered absentmindedly.

Before this, he was full of worries for Lin Xun, but at this moment, his mind had been overtaken by shock, paralyzed by the overwhelming, invincible power displayed by Lin Xun.

“Throughout history, there have been many legendary and invincible figures who have shaken the starry sky, and many epic battles have also broken out...”

Xuan Jiuyin’s eyes gleamed with excitement, and his lips quivered. “But I’ve never seen anyone like this guy, and I’ve also never heard of a battle as thrilling as this one!”

“Fierce!

“So fierce!

“Absolutely fierce! This is what it means to be invincible!”

Xuan Jiuyin clearly had lost control of his emotions.

……

In less than ten snaps of the finger.

Mi Wuya, who was seen as an indestructible pillar, was finally wounded in the violent collision. A thin streak of blood slipped from his lips.

Despite that, his eyes burned as brightly as torches. He was unfazed, instead his will to fight grew even stronger.

At the same time, another expert was killed by Lin Xun’s Pulao Roar. His spirit shattered and blood oozed out from the seven apertures, tracing dark lines down his terror-warped face.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun showed not a hint of exhaustion!

After twenty finger snaps.

In a head-on clash, the mighty Jing Tiannan, who had been refusing to give up all along, unleashed a furious roar and launched a killing strike.

With one palm strike, he created a frightening vision of the sun and the moon sinking, and stars falling from the sky.

Even Mi Wuya’s eyes widened in surprise.

Ling Hongzhuang paused her attack, frozen in astonishment at the power of the palm strike.

Boom!

Amidst world shattering rumble, Lin Xun thrust out his palm to meet the attack head-on, and endless light and sparks sputtered out between the two. The force of the impact sent shockwaves through the air.

The cultivators around Lin Xun all subconsciously dodged for fear of being swept in.

The clash was too terrifying. Jing Tiannan was clearly enraged, unleashing his full ferocious power.

But the next moment—

Crack!

With a sharp sound of bones shattering, Jing Tiannan’s sleeve was seen tearing apart into shreds and fluttered everywhere like butterflies as his right arm exploded inch by inch.

He screamed in terror, blasted away in the collision of the palms.

It seemed like even someone as powerful as Jing Tiannan was no match for Lin Xun. He was overpowered in the confrontation and lost an arm in the struggle!

Everyone’s expression changed.

Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Xun stepped forward, reaching within three feet of the Gate of Ruination!

His clothes were soaked in blood, his hair was disheveled, and his body was riddled with bloody wounds, but his fighting spirit was so towering that it nearly blotted out the sky!

Some experts had given up at this point and dared not move forward.

These included Tang Su and Hua Xingli.

Lin Xun’s strength and ruthlessness had shook them to their very core and they no longer saw any hope of them stopping him from advancing.

At the same time, a feeling of admiration and awe blossomed in their chests.

They had gone up against Lin Xun not because of hostility or revenge, but to compete for the platform.

At this point in the battle, they all knew well that, given their strengths, not only were they no match for Lin Xun, but even if they managed to occupy the platform, it would not be long before they were eliminated by the others.

In other words, the two had given up on fighting for the chaos treasure.

Everyone had the opportunity to compete for this heaven-defying fortune, but not everyone was fated to fight for it.
