Chapter 2185 Appearance of Supreme Fortune

The lightning decree floated in the air, spreading a pressure all over the starry space around.

In the dead quiet atmosphere, some old monsters suddenly noticed that the law power covering the Great Wall of Thousand Daos was disappearing rapidly.

“What's going on?”

“No, the starry origin law power isn’t disappearing. To be precise, that decree of lightning is drawing it all in!”

Alarmed shouts rang out when most of the old monsters stationed at the castle saw this as well. The law power permeating the Great Wall of Thousand Daos was surging up from all directions and flowing toward the decree underneath the tribulation sky.

Upon swallowing the law power, the glowing decree became more and more blazing and its aura more and more powerful.

Vaguely, the worm-like runes on it actually took on the shape of lotus flowers that were waiting to bloom!

“The endless calamity of ruin, the lotus blooms in solitude!” shrieked an old relic hoarsely with a greedy gaze. “The Fangchun remnant isn't just trying to certify supreme Emperorhood, he’s also plotting for the greatest fortune in this Nirvana of Transcendence – he wants to become the single lotus that blooms in solitude!”

“How could that be?!” The faces of the other old monsters all changed drastically, each one agitated with shock and anger.

This time, they had come from various worlds for the Nirvana of Transcendence, all to seek the supreme fortune related to the Eternal Supremacy Path.

Rumors had it that by becoming the mentioned lotus, one would be the only immortal and indestructible supreme Emperor!

Even though it was just a characteristic rather than true battle power, it was enough to make any Emperor expert go crazy fighting over it.

Now, after seven years of guarding the Great Wall of Thousand Daos and going through dangerous battles, they finally welcomed the appearance of this supreme fortune.

However, it seemed clear right away that the fortune was not meant for them!

The fact that it would appear on Lin Xun during his ninth round of supreme Emperor tribulation caught them completely off guard!

“It’s definitely it! That supreme decree drained all the starry origin law power of the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, and whoever obtains it will become immortal and indestructible!” roared another cultivator irascibly.

As a matter of fact, all the old Emperor monsters on the Great Wall of Thousand Daos were on the verge of insanity at the moment and just wanted to go berserk.

Since the supreme fortune had appeared in the middle of Lin Xun's tribulation, how would they even seize it?

Rushing into that kind of apex calamity would be no different from a death wish!

“If I can't have it, then this sinful remnant of Fangchun Mountain shall not have it either!” declared an old monster from Holy Illumination Ancient Sect in a cold voice filled with hatred.

Swish!

His figure flashed the next moment as he teleported out of the castle, without encountering any restrictions during the progress.

This surprised him, and then he laughed up at the sky ecstatically, “The heavens want to help me! Lin Xun, you will die this time, definitely!”

As his voice drifted around, he had already charged in Lin Xun’s direction.

At the same time, from the great wall that stretched infinitely, many other old monsters were also rushing out toward the tribulation area in unison.

Since the lightning decree had sucked away the law power covering the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, they knew that the restrictions had also vanished as well.

At least, they were now able to leave their stations and travel out to any part of the vast universe!

“Kid, you will definitely fail this tribulation!”

“Even if you survive it, do you think you can...walk out alive with so many of us around?”

“Go!”

For a moment, dazzling rainbows swept toward the same place from all directions as the old Emperor monsters moved at full speed, each one full of might and murderous intent.

Battle Emperor Fengling paled. The tribulation suddenly became secondary at this moment. He rushed out without hesitation, arrived at Lin Xun's castle before anyone else, and hurriedly said, “Little Friend, the situation is not good! Tell this girl to leave, or else those old fogeys will capture her to force you to submit, and they will join forces to do that if they have to!”

The ninth round of lightning, which had still been building up, was undoubtedly the deadliest threat.

If Lin Xun got distracted because of Xia Zhi...then the consequences would be unimaginable!

Lin Xun's black eyes were indifferent as he glanced at the Emperor experts approaching from all around, then he turned his gaze to Xia Zhi.

Her clothes fluttering, Xia Zhi gripped her bone spear and said softly, “You just focus on the tribulation. Don’t worry about me, they can’t kill me.”

Saying that, she strode toward depths of the starry void.

Over there were still many, many starry sky beasts waiting for the heavenly tribulation to end so that they could continue attacking Lin Xun.

Seeing Xia Zhi approaching them, their scarlet pupils flickered in a desire to take action, but as she stopped not far away from them, they once again quieted down.

Lin Xun was greatly relieved when he saw this.

Xia Zhi was not a child. She had made the wisest choice on the spot. If those old monsters attacked her, then even if she couldn't beat them, she could still rush into the sea of starry sky beasts and stir them up, using their power to repel or even handle those Emperors for her.

Of course, this was an incredibly risky action, but compared to facing all those Emperor monsters on her own, this gave her a better chance to turn the tide.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Those old Emperors soon arrived in a dense group of several hundred people, the strongest being sixth realm Emperors and the weakest first realm.

Every stomp of their foot could make the stars tremble. However, they took care to avoid the lightning tribulation zone, not daring to approach it at all.

“That cunning woman is hiding over there!”

They were eager to capture Xia Zhi as a hostage, but upon seeing her standing near the foreign beasts in the distance, they couldn't help but frown and give up on this idea.

“Bastard Lin, I’m sure you also know your situation. Even if you somehow manage to pass the tribulation, there are hundreds of us fellow cultivators in the vicinity who will take your life the moment you’re done!

“Not only so, there is a big horde of starry sky beasts watching you like watching a prey. What can you even do to put up a struggle?

“Give up!”

This was the shout from an ancestor of Primordial Dao Court who wore a dignified facade. With the dharma name of Battle Emperor Zangliu, he was a sixth realm Emperor who possessed great influence.

Right after he finished his speech, the other Emperors also chimed in and made either sneering, taunting, gloating, or threatening remarks...

Their words paired with their ruthless expressions could indeed make the average person scared out of their wits and panic.

Lin Xun, however, simply ignored these old fogeys. From beginning to end, he never even spared them a glance.

His mind and will were as solid as steel, unshakable for all eternity. He stared tightly at the decree under the tribulation cloud, waiting in readiness.

He could also tell that the change in the Great Wall of Thousand Daos was related to this lightning that had taken the form of a lotus-shaped decree.

This was most likely that great fortune called Eternal Supremacy!

Lin Xun's complete disregard for them put a gloomy look on the old monsters’ faces, but none of them dared to go and attempt to disrupt his tribulation for fear that the lightning would strike them.

“Just you wait! You are dead whether you succeed in your tribulation or not!” said one through gritted teeth.

RUMBLE!

An earth-shaking explosion suddenly interrupted the oppressive atmosphere. Over the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, the law power dimmed, looking like it had lost all its power.

At the same time, the lightning decree in the sky also started flashing and diffusing an obscure energy, one that threatened to destroy this piece of the universe.

It was a sight of pure terror!

Right at this juncture, Lin Xun strode up into the void. He was actually taking the initiative to move toward that decree. As he did, his entirety glowed radiantly.

Vaguely, he seemed to have transformed into a large abyss that strove to devour the entire sky dome, including the tribulation decree in it.

Countless people stared blankly.

Someone suddenly said sinisterly, “Little scum, do you really not care about the safety of that woman over there?”

It hit right at the critical spot!

The one question revealed a cruel threat.

“After I, Lin Xun, become an Emperor, I will kill your entire family!” Lin Xun finally spoke. His calm voice resounded through the starry sky.

The person who raised the question a white-robed man with an extraordinary appearance. He was an ancestor of the Primeval Imperial Kong Clan and was known as Sword Emperor Yunguang.

Upon hearing Lin Xun’s reply, he was not angry and was instead delighted. It proved that Lin Xun cared about the woman enough that it had flustered him into responding!

The other old monsters had also arrived at this conclusion. Their eyes flickered schemingly as they brainstormed whether or not they should risk dealing with Xia Zhi first.

Rumble!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun had fully transformed into a great abyss. Unleashing his full might, he engulfed the lightning decree in one fell swoop.

“What on earth...” Countless people felt their scalps go numb, shocked by Lin Xun's extremely daring move.

Swallowing lightning tribulation?!

Throughout the ages, who had seen such an idiotic tribulation crosser?

KABOOM!

The sky shook. The earth shook. The tribulation clouds churned fiercely. The tribulation atmosphere seemed to have been angered as it generated a boundlessly horrifying aura of destruction, causing the starry sky to show signs of collapse.

The old Emperor monsters did not hesitate to run far away.

From that terrible destructive aura, they had instantly detected a fatal threat. They knew for sure that they would have no chance of survival if it reached them!

At the same time, they saw Lin Xun, who had just swallowed the decree, glow even brighter as a thunderous sound stirred and spread within him.

In the blink of an eye, his muscles exploded, his tendons and bones shattered, including even his head. He was drowned out in the blazing tribulation lightning.

The only thing that was vaguely visible was a lightning decree. It was afloat in the air, still releasing a supreme heavenly might, while Lin Xun could no longer be seen.

He died, just like that?

The crowd’s eyes went wide open. It had taken just a split second for Lin Xun to burst into nothingness and the decree of lightning to emerge again. From this, it was obvious how perverse the ninth round of tribulation was.

In fact, even sixth realm Emperors like Battle Emperor Zangliu were creeped out, their hair standing up on end and their hearts palpitating. The aura dispersed by that decree was so powerful that even characters of their level couldn't withstand it!

Battle Emperor Fengling's eyes bulged up to the point their corners were close to splitting.

How could this be?! He was so close! He was only one final step away from success!

Could it be that his mental state was affected? Is that the reason why he unfortunately fell?

Only Xia Zhi, standing in the far distance, remained indifferent.

She perceived very clearly that Lin Xun’s life force had not completely died out, but his situation...had become quite horrid...

Her heart tightened.
