Chapter 2296 The Bigwigs from the Other Side of the Cosmos

Mountains and rivers had been broken, buildings had collapsed, and the land was devastated.

The air was still filled with the pungent smell of blood and remnants of war. The former prosperity had now turned into a field of total destruction.

The experts of the Divine Forge Imperial Clan were cleaning up the leftover mess, and their expressions were full of grief and desolation.

In this battle, the armies of the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans had been mighty and trampled through Thousand Flame Imperial City, which was equivalent to destroying the Divine Forge Imperial Clan's ancestral roots.

The members of the Celestial Phoenix Lineage were also angry and sad.

For countless years, everyone in the Celestial Phoenix World had respected their clan, and there had never been a catastrophe like today.

Despite that, they were all grateful that their enemies did not get what they wanted, and their clan still had a hope of survival.

As the head of the Celestial Phoenix Clan, even though he was seriously injured, Huang Cangtian did not show any signs of being down or depressed. Instead, he looked firm and calmly dealt with the post-war affairs.

The same was true for those old antiques who were seriously injured. They did not reveal any depressed expressions and were instead taking the time to heal their wounds.

Xi, Big Yellow, Xia Zhi and the others were also resting and recovering their strength.

They all knew that while the enemy had been defeated, this victory was only temporary after all. After suffering such a big loss, the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Lineages would not give up that easily.

If nothing unexpected happened, then the big shot from the Luo Clan on the other side of the cosmos would be coming in three days. This was their biggest threat!

"I have inherited and integrated the cultivation legacy of the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor into my own dao. If the big shot from the Luo Clan on the other side of the cosmos comes, I will deal with it,” said Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor as she talked to Lin Xun with a calm look in her eyes.

"I won't stand by and watch."

Lin Xun took a deep breath. The great calamity that the Celestial Phoenix Lineage encountered was related to Luo Qingxun’s situation from long ago. As her son, Lin Xun had a duty to take responsibility when facing such a predicament.

"Aren't you worried that the other party will discover your identity and try to kill you at all costs?" asked Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor.

Lin Xun smiled and responded, "If I am afraid now, then how can I fight my way to the other side of the cosmos and witness the capabilities of the Luo Clan there in the future?"

Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor was stunned by his reply and said, "If that day really comes, I will look forward to it and how famous you can be."

The other side of the cosmos was a place where even Emperor Ancestors were eager to go.

After all, it was rumored that only there was a way to beyond the Ancestor Stage and obtain eternal immortality!

After pondering for a long time, Lin Xun couldn't help but ask, "Senior, pardon me for the question, but does the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor...no longer have a chance to undergo nirvana?"

The progenitor had given the Phoenix Flame of Order to him, and his dao had been passed on to Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor. In his opinion, the progenitor wouldn’t have done this if he hadn’t reached an insurmountable roadblock.

However, Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor shook her head and explained to Lin Xun that the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor decided to undergo a new attempt at nirvana, and told Lin Xun that the dao that the progenitor sought was a great dao that transcended his peers in both ancient and modern times.

Lin Xun was astounded by this revelation. The progenitor had regarded the Phoenix Flame of Order as a shackle, so he resolutely decided to cut off his previous dao and undergo a new attempt at nirvana. What kind of courage must the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor have to make such an earth-shattering decision?

"You don't have to worry too much about this. Take the time to stabilize your cultivation since the important figure from the Luo Clan hasn't arrived yet."

As Thousand Fire Spirit Emperor finished with this, she floated away.

Lin Xun stood there alone, gazing at the desolate ruins for a long time. In the end, he finally retracted his gaze, sat cross-legged, and cultivated quietly.

He still had nearly half of the Primal Chaos Essence given to him in his body, so using it to recover meant that he replenished his strength at light speed.

Within one hour, Lin Xun woke up from his meditation session, and his physical strength had been restored to its peak state.

He then found Huang Cangtian and Lian Jiuxiao and asked for a batch of divine materials to set up the formation. Both happily agreed.

Although Thousand Flame Imperial City had been destroyed, the heritage of the Celestial Phoenix and Divine Forge Clans was still here. This was especially true for the treasures they had accumulated for countless years, which had not been looted by the enemy.

Soon, the divine materials Lin Xun needed were ready.

"Little Five, it’s your turn now." Lin Xun decided to set up the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array in front of Divine Forge Workshop A1, and the one who was best at this formation was naturally its array spirit.

"The veins and spiritual sources of the mountains and rivers within thousands of miles of here have been broken. Even if the formation can be successfully made, it can only last for less than an hour at most. Are you sure you want to waste so many divine materials on this?"

Little Five couldn't help but remind him that the value of the divine materials consumed to set up a Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array was incredibly costly.

"Enough nonsense and get to work."

Lin Xun knocked on the little guy's forehead. The latter bared his teeth and was very angry for a moment, but finally followed his orders.

Two days later.

A Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array was successfully set up, and Lin Xun and others all entered Divine Forge Workshop A1 that was now protected by this formation.

On the same day, Xia Zhi suddenly found Lin Xun and said, "Lin Xun, I may have to undergo another cultivation hibernation session."

Lin Xun was startled by this. "Now?"

Xia Zhi nodded, her voice clear, "If Sister Jingxuan wakes up, remember to ask her to write down the method of having a child."

Lin Xun's lips twitched imperceptibly. If Jingxuan found out about this...how embarrassing would it be?

Without waiting for Lin Xun to react, Xia Zhi snuggled up to him and fell asleep quietly. Her beautiful face under the brim of her hat glowed with a quiet and faintly holy luster.

Lin Xun reached out and gently stroked her cheek, thinking of the times when he was with Xia Zhi in Feiyun Village, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

After a moment, he carefully picked up Xia Zhi and placed her in his own True Self Emperor World.

The Dao Endless Pagoda could be lost by accident.

However, unless he died, there was no way his True Self Emperor World could be destroyed.

...

Two days later.

On the bank of a lake far away from the Thousand Flame Imperial City.

“Right now, we can only wait for the arrival of the esteemed expert from the Luo Clan on the other side of the cosmos. Then, we can avenge this loss and wipe out the damned Celestial Phoenix Lineage!”

Bai Lingzhen’s expression was gloomy and ugly.

Near him were a group of old monsters from the White Tiger Lineage, and not far away were old monsters from the Black Tortoise Lineage such as Wu Xiuxing.

As for the eight hundred thousand experts that were led by the two clans, they were now all packed in special treasures and could come out any time to do great damage to their enemies.

Wu Xiuxing’s expression was uncertain as he said, “I’m only worried about whether the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor has awakened from his attempt at nirvana.”

“You should be more worried whether the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor will take this opportunity to escape,” sneered Bai Lingzhen.

Wu Xiuxing did not deny he was wrong.

If the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor escaped, then even if the expert from the Luo Clan on the other side of the cosmos came, it may be too late for their plans.

For the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans, the most deadly threat came from the Celestial Phoenix Progenitor Ancestor!

This was also the major reason why they had mobilized their troops to invade.

"Didn't they say that the seventh elder of the Luo Clan from the other side of the cosmos would come today? Why hasn't he appeared until now?" wondered Wu Xiuxing.

Bai Lingzhen also frowned. According to the news, the other party should have arrived today.

At this moment, a gentle voice that resembled a spring breeze sounded slowly, "Are you all waiting for this lofty one?"

Every word, like the sound of nature, made the world glow with a kind of vitality, becoming bright and vivid.

Before the voice dissipated, two figures, one old and one young, emerged silently out of thin air. They were vague and mysterious like a pair of heavenly immortals.

The old man was wearing clothing that had wide sleeves and a wide belt, and he was elegant and thin. His figure was tall, making him resemble a school teacher in the secular world, except for the fact that there was a bright red string tied around his wrist.

The young man beside him was dressed in white and had handsome and elegant features. His long black hair was tied up in a peculiar lotus-shaped bun, and his thin and slender figure was outstanding.

The old man's eyes were gentle and calm, as if he stood aloof from the world.

However, whether it was the Emperor Ancestors present or clan leaders such as Bai Lingzhen and Wu Xiuxing, at this moment, they only felt that the old man was like a towering mountain that could only be looked up to. They felt entirely insignificant.

The young man in white’s expression was calm and composed, neither happy nor sad, without any trace of arrogance.

However, in his eyes, it was obvious that he did not view the people present and everything in this world any differently from each other. Although they were all physically seen by him, there was no one he deemed truly worthy of his attention.

This was a kind of peak arrogance!

Almost immediately, Bai Lingzhen, Wu Xiuxing and the other people who were usually considered to be all-powerful giants stood up and saluted respectfully.

Their expressions were full of respect and piety!

If such a scene was seen by others, they would be shocked and speechless. After all, the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Lineages were both clans born from chaos at the beginning of the primeval era and had ancient and terrifying backgrounds.

Furthermore, the people present from the two clans were like overlords usually, and countless sentient beings in the world looked up to them.

Despite that, they were all acting in a respectful and humble manner!

The reason was very simple: this old man with wide sleeves and wide belt was the seventh elder of the Luo Clan from the other side of the cosmos, Luo Xingfeng!

Upon seeing this, both Luo Xingfeng and the young man in white looked unperturbed, as if this kind of presentation was no big deal to them.

In fact, they were used to this kind of treatment.

"No need to be polite." Luo Xingfeng waved his hand. Having reached his level, he no longer cared about these mundane courtesies.

Only then did Bai Lingzhen and the others dare to stand up straight, but the respect and awe in their expressions had only increased.

"Tell me about the situation," commanded Luo Xingfeng casually.

Soon, Bai Lingzhen told him all about the battle three days ago, not daring to hide anything.

After listening, Luo Xingfeng looked calm, just said "oh," and turned his head to look at the young man in white beside him. He then said with interest, "Chen'er, in your opinion, how strong is this Lin Daoyuan guy?"

The young man in white said calmly, "He is at the third realm of the Supreme Emperor Stage, wields an extraordinary life-bound Emperor weapon, and can fight against an Emperor Ancestor. Just based on these qualities, he can be considered the top talent in the Emperor Stage in our world."

Although he stated all of these shocking facts, there was no emotional fluctuation in his tone, as if he was just answering a very boring question.

Hearing the young man in white's evaluation, Bai Lingzhen, Wu Xiuxing and other old antiques were all very upset. Lin Daoyuan was so amazing, but he could only be called a "top talent" in the other world?

Luo Xingfeng nodded with a smile and said, "In this world, it is rare for someone like Lin Daoyuan to have such great accomplishments, but compared with those dazzling true geniuses on the other side of the cosmos, there is not much special about him."

This isn’t special enough?

Bai Lingzhen, Wu Xiuxing and others were getting more and more restless, feeling that their understanding of the world was about to be overturned. What kind of place was the other side of the cosmos...
