For other people, being hunted down by the major forces in the Central State of the Great Primordial Chaos World would be enough to make them despair and collapse.

However, for Lin Xun, it was better to say that he was still on his own journey rather than being hunted down.

No matter how serious and dangerous the situation was, it did not make him change his mind on going to the Divine Apparatus Profound Sect.

Furthermore, sparring and fighting with Sword Emperor Hunkong had become a compulsory task for Lin Xun along the way in order to temper himself.

This also gave him a deeper understanding and awareness of the power controlled by Emperors.

After fighting Lin Xun many times and being knocked unconscious by Sword Spirit Yezi every single time, Sword Emperor Hunkong had to angrily accept a fact: He, an Emperor who could shake the heavens, was now really a human punching bag...

When needed, he would be taken out and used.

When not needed, he would be knocked unconscious and thrown aside.

This made him ashamed and angry, and the thought of suicide came to mind multiple times.

It was too depressing. A dignified Emperor had become a living punching bag for a junior to practice on. From ancient times to the present, which Emperor had ever suffered such a great humiliation as he has?

No one else!

If such a thing were to spread...

Just thinking about that made Sword Emperor Hunkong want to die immediately

In the end, he still couldn't kill himself. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he didn't dare.

Those who could become Emperors like him had experienced countless hardships and dangers in their lives before finally stepping into the Emperor Stage that most of the cultivators in the world could not cross.

The more he climbed, the more unwilling he was to end his life like this!

Furthermore, as Sword Emperor Hunkong, he had an extremely tenacious and strong state of mind. Although he was ashamed and angry, he only thought about killing himself instead of actually carrying that action out.

As time passed, an unprecedented obsession formed in his heart. He needed to seize the opportunity to capture the damned Lin Xun alive before the damned sword spirit hit him to sleep!

This obsession made Sword Emperor Hunkong learn how to endure humiliation and hardships. He firmly believed that those who worked hard would be rewarded by heaven, and one day he would be able to avenge his previous shame!

Lin Xun didn't care about this at all. He just regarded the other party as a perfect target to hone himself.

Sword Spirit Yezi didn't care either. Even if he wanted to pay attention to someone who was at the first realm of the Emperor Stage...he wouldn’t be able to muster an iota of interest at all.

If Sword Emperor Hunkong knew what Lin Xun and Yezi thought of him, then it was possible that it would douse his obsession to endure and wait for revenge with despair, causing him to kill himself immediately.

In short, although Lin Xun was on the road, he was living a fulfilling life.

In addition to practicing the Grand Dao Yellow Court Classic and tempering his five internal organs, he was looking for opportunities to surpass Sword Emperor Hunkong, a living sparring partner.

Although he fought again and again with repeated, miserable defeats, he enjoyed the process immensely.

...

More than ten days had passed by in a hurry.

The journey was not peaceful; on the contrary, it was full of dangers and disasters.

The enemies were like hyenas on their heels, lingering around. They were always able to sniff out traces of Lin Xun within the shortest possible time.

Then, group after group of them launched siege operations one after another.

However, for Lin Xun, this was like a group of prey delivering themselves to his doorstep. Naturally, Yezi would take care of the powerful Emperors, whereas the quasi-Emperors were dealt with by Lin Xun.

Unfortunately, throughout this entire time, Lin Xun did not encounter any opponents who could make him really exert himself.

From the death of Battle Emperor Qingyuan and his group at the beginning, to the various experts who had suffered in the following period of time, the news of his massacre could not be concealed at all.

Like the start of a tide, it spread out in waves and became known by the various forces that were chasing Lin Xun.

"Battle Emperor Qingyuan and his party have fallen."

"Sword Emperor Hunkong and his party have also been defeated."

"Outside Cuiya Mountain, the bodies of Battle Emperor Fengdu and his party were found."

"Sword Emperor Fengxun of the Heavenly Ghost Battle Clan and his party have disappeared for many days, and no news has been heard. It is suspected that they have met with disaster."

Various news came like flying snowflakes.

Each one was shocking. For a time, innumerable experts trembled and countless Emperors were shocked.

In order to hunt Lin Xun this time, the ancient forces headed by the Heaven and Earth, Primordial, and Panwu Dao Courts in the Central Plain State had united with the Great Ten Battle Clans and a group of primeval imperial clans. This was an extremely powerful lineup.

According to statistics, there were nearly twenty Emperors in pursuit alone!

The other experts who participated in the hunt were innumerable, and the weakest of them were at the Quasi-Emperor Stage. Such a lineup could easily run rampant on the Ancient Nebula Road.

Everyone thought that their target was just a supreme quasi-Emperor, who would not be able to cause any big waves even if he died.

To their dismay, despite pursuing him for more than ten days straight, their initiative had encountered frequent setbacks, and even the Emperors had been killed one after another!

How can people not be shocked?

Emperors were considered supreme and intimidating figures. Since the end of the Dao War of Emperors, almost no one had heard of an Emperor falling in the countless years since then.

However, during and after that huge game, those Emperors, who seemed to be high above and could only be looked up to, fell like comets.

This had already caused the heavens to fall into turmoil and caused a great sensation that affected the world. Who would have thought that after the end of this huge game, just when chasing a remnant of Fangchun Mountain, the bloody incident of Emperors falling like rain would be seen again?

What people could not accept the most was that the one who had killed those Emperors was just a young man with the cultivation of a supreme quasi-Emperor!

Those big forces suddenly realized that the target they were hunting this time had become extremely difficult.

"Everyone should be careful, this boy is accompanied by a sword spirit, and his combat power is amazing. Those below the third realm of the Emperor Stage are no match for this sword spirit."

Soon, the matter about Sword Spirit Yezi became widely known, causing Emperors to gasp.

It was just a sword spirit, but it had the power to kill Emperors?

Just thinking about it made people tremble.

"This must be the life-saving method left by the remnants of Fangchun Mountain for this boy before they left!"

"Hurry up and ask for support. In my opinion, only the experts above the fifth realm of the Emperor Stage can suppress the sword spirit."

"But...most of those experts who have achieved great success have already embarked on the journey to the other side of the cosmos. The only behemoths left have to guard the sects. How could they be easily sent out?"

"We have to try! We made such a big fuss. If we can't kill such a small bastard, then how will the people of the Ancient Nebula Road view us?"

The big forces chasing Lin Xun discussed countermeasures minutely and finally made a decision to ask for support from the sects behind them to suppress the sword spirit beside Lin Xun!

"Sword spirit?"

In a cold and dark underground cave in Panwu Dao Court, a skinny man suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were like a dazzling heavenly sword that illuminated the dark cave.

An old servant beside him said respectfully, "That's right. It is said that the sword spirit is extremely fierce. No one below the third realm of the Emperor Stage can defeat it. If it weren't for his protection, that little bastard surnamed Lin would have been defeated by us already..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the skinny man, "I only care about the sword spirit!"

As he spoke, he stood up. In an instant, like a blade that had been silent for thousands of years, he showed his edge in the darkness. His terrifying aura spread, oppressing the old servant so much that he had to sit on the ground after being almost suffocated by it.

"Tell me the whereabouts of the sword spirit."

The skinny man walked out.

"Yes!" replied the old servant in a trembling voice.

On this day, Ice Devouring Sword Emperor who had been in seclusion for 39,000 years in Panwu Dao Court came out of the underground cave as he desired to capture the sword spirit for himself.

When they heard the news, the forces chasing Lin Xun all breathed a sigh of relief and looked forward to it.

Ice Devouring Sword Emperor was a terrifying existence at the sixth realm of the Emperor Stage. He was extremely powerful and his swordsmanship was majestic!

When Taishu Hong, the leader of Mythical Huang Dao Court, learned of the news, he couldn't help but sneer.

Ice Devouring Sword Emperor was indeed an extremely powerful character, but compared with many Emperor Stage figures who had participated in that huge game, he was not much stronger. In fact, he was considered to be far inferior.

Not to mention the descendants of Fangchun Mountain, even if Ultimate Demon Sword Emperor Xia Xinglie took action, he could easily suppress Ice Devouring Sword Emperor!

"It's not surprising. When there is no longer a tiger reigning in the mountains, the monkeys will clamor to become king…”

Taishu Hong sighed and looked into the depths of the starry sky.

With the reappearance of the path leading to the other side of the cosmos, countless old antiques who had been dormant for a long time and innumerable other Emperors had embarked on the journey to the other side.

Even in the Mythical Huang Dao Court, there were originally nine old antiques present who were Emperor Ancestors, but now only two were left!

The same must be true for the other major forces!

When those who had been trapped in the Ancestor Stage for many years finally glimpsed a hope of breaking through to the next stage, who among them would be willing to continue to stay in the Ancient Nebula Road?

In fact, Taishu Hong also wanted to go to the other side of the starry sky, but he couldn't.

After all, he was the leader of Mythical Huang Dao Court.

Taishu Hong knew that while many old guys had left, there were also many old guys who stayed.

The reason was easy to guess. The ‘sky’ of the Ancient Nebula Road...had changed!

In the years to come, the forces and patterns of the world would be reshuffled. Now it depended on which major force could seize the opportunity!

"None of you are doing this for so-called revenge, we all know it’s for the treasures and fortunes on this boy..."

Taishu Hong revealed a hint of playfulness and ridicule.

The power of Fangchun Mountain had already shocked the entire Ancient Nebula Road after the end of that huge heavenly game.

Lin Xun carried the inheritance of Fangchun Mountain and controlled the secret behind becoming an Emperor and Ancestor. Therefore, whoever could capture him would get unimaginable benefits.

This was the reason why so many major forces had been dispatched together for this hunting operation!

Otherwise, who would spend so much effort to dispatch so many Emperors on mere revenge?

Taishu Hong had seen through things clearly. Although he was quite disdainful of this approach, he had no intention of interfering.

After all, the reason why Mythical Huang Dao Court could survive to this day was that, first, its own foundation was strong enough, and second, it had always adhered to the ‘neutral’ attitude since primordial times!

Despite that, lately Taishu Hong had felt a bit uneasy.

He had a hunch that when the next Nameless Emperor appeared, an unpredictable change would inevitably set off within the entire Ancient Nebula Road!
