Chapter 2307 Attend Blood Dome Mountain Meeting Alone

The tribulation thunder and lightning that filled the sky were all swallowed by the abyss. From afar, it looked as though a massive portion of the sky had been consumed, leaving behind an awe-inspiring and terrifying spectacle.

As Big Yellow, Qing Ying, and the others stared in stunned disbelief, the abyss that had devoured all the tribulation lightning suddenly buzzed, letting out a series of deep, resounding roars, before slowly transforming into Lin Xun’s figure.

He stood tall in the void, each pore on his body spewing out blinding lightning essence and the aura around him was as vast and boundless as a rainbow streaking across heavens, seemingly encompassing the entire world.

Like a supreme divine being, he cast his gaze over the universe.

“Pervading Mystery Realm!”

Some elders of Copper Sparrow House murmured in amazement. The earth-shattering tribulation had been so terrifying that just witnessing it had sent them trembling.

Yet Lin Xun had faced it head-on, transformed into an abyss, and devoured it in one breath!

“That’s no ordinary fourth realm Emperor Stage.” Big Yellow’s eyes gleamed with a sharp, knowing light.

The fourth realm Emperor Stage was known as Pervading Mystery. Upon reaching this level, one’s True Self Emperor World was akin to the embodiment of all mysteries, capable of deriving boundless origin power from the heavens and earth.

However, Lin Xun’s was clearly different!

Big Yellow even suspected that after stepping into this realm, Lin Xun’s foundation and strength had reached an unprecedented level, and perhaps even enough to contend with Emperor Ancestors!

Rumble—

The rumbling thunder gradually faded and the dao light surrounding Lin Xun also withdrew, as if all its brilliance had been reined in, returning to a state of profound simplicity—ethereal and tranquil.

Drifting downward, he entered a meditative state, focusing on consolidating his newfound strength after the breakthrough.

Surpassing the tribulation had once again transformed his power, elevating it beyond what it had been before. The most evident change was the appearance of a beautiful mystic light within his True Self Emperor World. It was like the origin power of the world, imbuing the entire world with an unprecedented vitality.

In addition, his spirit, will, physique, and strength had also reached new heights. His bones, acupoints, flesh, and blood had become flawless, radiant and translucent, emanating a mysterious glow that made him appear almost otherworldly.

Five days later, Lin Xun emerged from meditation, and as his eyes opened, a mysterious dao light flickered within them, resembling the first light of dawn when heaven and earth first formed.

Nearby, Big Yellow and Qing Ying, who had been waiting, immediately stepped forward and informed him of the invitation from Yu Kunzi, the leader of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect.

“Blood Dome Mountain?” Lin Xun frowned. “Where is that?”

Qing Ying explained, “It’s a sacred mountain located ninety thousand miles away from the ancestral land of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, also the site where the second Calamity of Ruin once broke out.”

According to her, Blood Dome Mountain had been tainted by the power of the Calamity of Ruin and had since become an eerie and strange place. For countless years, it had remained enshrouded in dense mist that never dissipated.

The mountain had long been regarded as a forbidden zone. Any cultivator below the Emperor Stage was unable to set foot on it, while Emperors found it impossible to so much as damage a single blade of grass upon its surface.

Even Emperor-grade weapons were utterly ineffective against it.

Moreover, due to the dense fog, even the spirit sense of an Emperor Ancestor was restricted to a range of a mere thousand feet.

Over the years, many powerful Emperors had attempted to claim and refine the mountain, but without exception, they all failed.

Given these circumstances, Qing Ying was convinced that Yu Kunzi’s choice to meet Lin Xun at Blood Dome Mountain was done with ulterior motives. The fact that the mountain was shrouded in thick fog and suppressed spirit sense made it an ideal location for an ambush!

Lin Xun simply smiled and said, “It’s just a meeting, not a battle. Maybe the old man just wants to have a chat?”

Big Yellow snorted, “Even an idiot can tell this is a trap. Don’t tell me you actually plan to go?”

“Why not? Since they’ve gone to such trouble, they must have assembled all the forces they believe are capable of suppressing and killing me. But that also means a perfect opportunity for us to wipe them out in a single strike. No need to scour the lands for them, this one battle will be enough to bring this to an end!”

Lin Xun added, “Besides...it’s about time the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and the Earth Treasury Realm paid the price for everything they’ve done.”

The present him, with his trump cards and his cultivation, feared nothing in the Ancient Nebula Underworld!

“Then I’ll go with you,” Big Yellow declared.

Lin Xun shook his head. “Big Yellow, take Little Five to the Holy Illumination Ancestral Mountain and seal it off with the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array.”

In an instant, Big Yellow and Qing Ying’s eyes lit up.

Holy Illumination Ancestral Mountain was the heart of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect. Lin Xun’s arrangement made it clear that he wasn’t just going to meet Yu Kunzi, but instead he was planning a devastating strike!

“Alright!” Big Yellow agreed without hesitation. With Xi by Lin Xun’s side, the dog had no worries about his safety.

Instead, the thought of this counterattack filled it with excitement. It couldn’t wait to get started.

“Young Master, isn’t this trip too risky?” Qing Ying voiced her concern.

Lin Xun smiled and shook his head. “Miss Qing Ying and everyone, await our news here.”

Whether it was to avenge Copper Sparrow House or to settle old grudges, he had been waiting years for this moment!

......

Blood Dome Mountain was shrouded in mist year-round.

Over the years, countless powerful figures had tried to dispel it, but without exception, they all failed.

At the summit, eight figures stood tall, led by Yu Kunzi of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect. Even the dense mist failed to obscure their radiance.

Among them were men and women. Some were wreathed in lightning, others glowed with divine dao light, while a few exuded dazzling majesty or were surrounded by blazing clouds. Their presence alone was enough to shake the heavens, and the Emperor might emanating from them made the air feel suffocating.

Yu Kunzi was especially dazzling. His temple bore streaks of white, his daoist robes were simple and unadorned, yet he was the focal point of the gathering.

Just by standing there, his presence overshadowed the others.

This was the power of the leader of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect. He was an eighth realm Emperor, only a step away from breaking through to the ninth realm, the Ancestor Reversion Realm.

“Sect Leader Yu Kunzi, Great Emperor Fanyun, Great Emperor Taiyin, Battle Emperor Jiubao... The Holy Illumination Ancient Sect has actually dispatched seven Emperor elders to accompany Yu Kunzi. They are all supreme-level giants, this shows just how seriously they are taking Emperor Daoyuan.”

At the foot of the mountain, someone sighed in awe.

Countless eyes were fixed on the mountain, hearts pounding. The eight figures standing atop the mountain could be considered the most authoritative force in the Ancient Nebula Underworld. Other than the Earth Treasury Realm, their combined might was enough to flatten all opposition.

“I wonder how many hidden forces are lying in wait around Blood Dome Mountain...” someone speculated. “If it’s just to deal with Emperor Daoyuan alone, those gathered here should be more than enough, but if Emperor Daoyuan arrives with the elders of Copper Sparrow House, then the outcome is far from certain.”

“Since Yu Kunzi personally arranged this meeting, he must have taken every precaution and is confident in his preparations. The real question is does Emperor Daoyuan dare to show up?”

All around Blood Dome Mountain, murmurs and discussions filled the air. Ever since word of Yu Kunzi’s invitation spread, the mountain had become the center of the world’s attention. Now, countless cultivators had already gathered in the surrounding areas, waiting for the confrontation to unfold.

Yet, as time passed, Lin Xun remained absent, and many began to suspect that he had chosen to withdraw, lacking the courage to come.

After all, the meeting could easily turn into a death trap!

Many people present knew that if they were in Lin Xun’s place, they wouldn’t dare to come either.

At that moment, a thunderous rumble echoed across the void as a divine rainbow streaked toward Blood Dome Mountain at an astonishing speed.

Shua!

As it neared the mountain, the rainbow abruptly straightened and condensed into a tall, ethereal figure. Clad in a flowing moon-white robe, he stood there, transcendent like an immortal.

“Emperor Daoyuan!”

“He actually came!”

The silence shattered as a wave of commotion rippled through the gathered cultivators. Countless gazes locked onto the lone figure, filled with astonishment and curiosity.

“Just you?”

Atop the mountain, Yu Kunzi and other high-ranking figures of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect took notice of Lin Xun immediately, but they were visibly surprised.

Lin Xun had come alone!

“I alone am enough.” Lin Xun’s voice was calm and his gaze indifferent as he looked toward Blood Dome Mountain. His lone silhouette radiated an unparalleled majesty in everyone’s sight.

He had come alone to the meeting!

His courage alone was enough to shake countless hearts and carve this moment into history.

Compared to Yu Kunzi’s overwhelming display of power, Lin Xun’s solitary arrival highlighted his unparalleled courage.

“Hmph! You’ve got guts, but do you dare to step onto the mountaintop and have a proper chat?” A stern, imposing man wreathed in lightning spoke, his deep voice resounding like a clap of thunder.

“Why wouldn’t I?” Lin Xun chuckled, his robes billowing as he ascended into the sky.

Blood Dome Mountain loomed ten thousand feet high, its jagged peaks piercing the clouds. A strange forbidden power veiled its slopes, shrouding the landscape in an eerie mist that obscured all sight and blocked all spirit sense.

No one knew whether deadly ambushes or death traps were hidden in the depths of the mountain.

Despite the unknown, Lin Xun showed no hesitation. His figure drifted effortlessly upwards through the mist. His calm and leisurely demeanor left countless onlookers in awe.

Yu Kunzi and the others furrowed their brows. For most of them, this was their first time meeting the legendary Emperor Daoyuan in person. Based on Lin Xun’s confidence alone, they knew he was not someone easy to deal with.

“You are a successor of Fangchun Mountain, yet you are standing up for Copper Sparrow House. Emperor Daoyuan, do you truly believe that no one in the Ancient Nebula Underworld can suppress you?” A woman in regal purple attire spoke coldly. Her flawless beauty was like ice and jade, while crimson dao light coiled around her like divine chains, both dazzling and menacing.

Lin Xun, standing atop the peak a thousand feet away from everyone else, swept a calm gaze over Yu Kunzi and the others before replying indifferently, “Perhaps there is someone in this world who can suppress me, but it certainly isn’t any of you.”

“Hmph, arrogant!” someone scoffed.

“Lin Daoyuan, you shouldn’t have come alone. This meeting was not arranged merely for you,” another figure spoke ominously.

At that moment, the eight formidable figures, including Yu Kunzi, locked their overwhelming aura onto Lin Xun. The pressure they exuded was beyond terrifying.

Ordinary Emperors would have been frightened into submission already.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun seemed unfazed. “Enough with the nonsense. Since you invited me here, state your purpose. I don’t have time to waste on you.”

His dismissive tone and complete lack of concern made the influential figures of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect frown and a flicker of cold killing intent flashed within their eyes.
