Chapter 2425 When Enemies Meet on a Narrow Path

The great array tumbled with a flood of forbidden runes, blotting out heaven and earth.

Nine Hells Divine Binding Array!

Seeing this scene, the Emperor experts of the Wen Clan felt their hands and feet go cold. If something happened to their young master...

Then the consequence would be something that even Granny Xue wouldn't be able to take! As for escorts like them, they would definitely have to pay for it with their lives!

To their utter disbelief, just before the big array appeared, they had clearly seen another Lin Xun appear and teleport into the stagnant vortex in a flash.

He still had more clones?!

The series of unexpected events simply made them want to go crazy.

Poof!

Lin Xun killed an eighth realm Emperor while they were distracted. The stimulating red of the splashing blood caused the others’ eyes to pop. They didn't dare to think any more and poured all their might into fighting him.

As for Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou, after so many shocks, their worries had been eliminated by quite a bit. They now looked at Lin Xun in a new light.

After years of not seeing each other, they didn't dare to imagine how Lin Xun's battle power could have become so terrifying!

Back in the Ancient Nebula Road, they were still in the same realm and of the same generation, but now that time had changed, they no longer belonged in the same world.

......

Meanwhile, in the stagnant vortex...

As soon as Lin Xun entered, a vast and thick golden sword chopped at him, swirling up endless dao light and releasing a horrifying destructive aura.

Clang!

The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron emerged before Lin Xun and blocked the sword. Their collision produced dazzling sparks.

Lin Xun slightly staggered.

At his opposite, a figure also swayed, which caused him to frown and snort coldly, “Ling Xuanzi, you're really seeking to die!”

This person was clearly none other than Wen Shaoheng who had the title of Wind Commanding Sword Emperor, a peak supreme seventh realm!

Previously, as he was refining the Ancestral dao origin, he had noticed immediately the commotion that arose outside of the vortex. He had originally not cared, confident that Granny Xue's group could fend off any danger with their strength.

Who would have thought that the series of changes that continued to transpire after wouldn’t allow him to remain calm? He had to give up on refining the Ancestral dao origin and hid at the entrance of this vortex.

At this moment, as his voice echoed...

Boom!

The golden dao sword wrapped in wisps of immortal aura glided up and slashed out with a destructive might. It was as if the immortal Emperor of Heaven was chopping down his sword at the mortal world.

He was wrapped in a flowing transcendent aura and drizzling light. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. His might could swallow mountains and rivers, and his power could dominate heavens.

With just one sword, he demonstrated a terrifying combat power that far surpassed his peers!

However, Lin Xun’s response was fearless. The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron rumbled as it took the sword strike head-on without any reservation.

It was because he knew full well that the current situation did not allow him to delay in the slightest. He must fight with thunderous momentum and make it a quick battle.

He had deployed his clones to lure away Granny Xue and the other two, and then clashed with the remaining Emperors of the Wen Clan all for the sake of making time to set up the array.

Right now, as the Nine Hells Divine Binding Array had formed, all that was left was to resolve the issue of Wen Shaoheng.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Earth-shattering collisions resounded as the golden dao sword and the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron battled. In a split second, they had exchanged dozens of blows.

The battle was ruthless and intense the moment it had begun.

To Lin Xun's surprise, Wen Shaoheng was extremely strong and his foundation was solid, far from any normal supreme expert could compare. Every single time, he successfully neutralized Lin Xun’s attack.

This was the first time Lin Xun had encountered such a powerful opponent in these recent years. Even Ninth Realm Ancestors were still slightly inferior to Wen Shaoheng.

At the same time, Wen Shaoheng was also unable to remain calm. Waves of shock were rolling in his heart.

Being regarded as the young master and ranked in the Wen Clan's Five Absolute Emperors, he himself was a monstrous genius only seen once in a million years. His entire cultivation had been tempered to the point it was immeasurably stable.

After cultivating for eight thousand years, his name had earned a small place in the big Eternal True Realm. He had influence over a region and had received praises from many immortal characters.

Therefore, Wen Shaoheng had never expected that a supreme sixth realm Emperor from the Ancient Nebula Road would be able to ignore the gap in strength and fight him head-on!

This was just too inconceivable!

If it was in the Eternal True Realm, the appearance of a similar character would still be understandable. At least as far as Wen Shaoheng knew, some Immortal Imperial Clans who wielded Heaven Rank power of law and order had such monsters that could not be gauged by common sense.

However, for such a character to come out from the remote and fallen Ancient Nebula Road, Wen Shaoheng was somewhat unable to accept it.

“Die!” His long hair danced as killing intent was plastered all over his handsome face. His might raged like a storm as he unleashed his entire cultivation power.

He absolutely could not tolerate such a thing to continue, otherwise if word of this got out, the reputation of the Wen Clan would completely be tarnished!

After all, he was from the Wen Clan and enjoyed the top cultivation resources it had to offer since birth, practicing the best arts and being surrounded by the guidance of many old relics...

If he couldn't even handle someone who had just come from the Ancient Nebula Road, then he would be too incompetent!

“Struggling is futile!” Lin Xun remained composed without a shred of emotion on his face. In contrast, his aura became stronger and kept climbing up.

𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Every time the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron swept out, it generated an unrivaled force of suppression. No matter how much Wen Shaoheng resisted, his attacks ultimately got crushed and dissolved one by one.

Soon, amidst bursts of clashing sounds, Wen Shaoheng was suppressed to the point he began to retreat continuously. His handsome face turned livid.

He was incredulous and furious inside.

However, each of Lin Xun's attacks was like a heavenly mountain pressing down. When he countered them, he would be shaken to the point where his qi and blood churned, his organs rattled, and his muscles felt a painful sensation. Gradually, he had difficulty fighting back.

How is this possible?

How can this be possible?

Wen Shaoheng crazily roared inwardly, his pupils filled with a tyrannical aura. Suddenly, he swung his hand.

Buzz!

A bizarre shuttle-shaped gray talisman shot out.

Lin Xun's pupils shrank. He immediately placed the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron in front of him.

BOOM!

In an instant, Lin Xun felt a rush of terrifying power ruthlessly slamming into the sword cauldron. It caused his entirety to stagger backward and whisked up his qi and blood.

Even the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron shook violently.

“He can even block a Silent Spirit Talisman?” The dumbfounded look on Wen Shaoheng’s face deepened as he watched from the distance and struggled to believe his eyes.

This was his trump card, which had been personally refined by an immortal character. An immortal aura was branded within the talisman, making it a horror that could easily exterminate a Ninth Realm Ancestor!

Yet, Lin Xun had blocked it!

“That was your trump card?” Lin Xun's eyes flashed with an intense killing aura.

Swish!

With a flick of his figure, his two remaining dao clones emerged together. One controlled the Dao Endless Pagoda that diffused billions of bright lights, and the other wielded the Broken Blade that emanated a monstrous ferocious aura.

Together with his true body, they charged toward Wen Shaoheng murderously.

Wen Shaoheng wanted to collapse. One Lin Xun had already been able to suppress him to the point he couldn't raise his head. How would he even fight now that there were two more?

In just the next few seconds, Wen Shaoheng was critically injured, scorched from head to toe and coughing up blood. If it wasn’t for the marvelous green armor he was wearing that helped him defuse most of the attacks, then he probably wouldn’t be able to remain standing now.

“Damnit, Ling Xuanzi. Just you wait!” Wen Shaoheng screamed as he crushed a silver-colored talisman. Instantly, a ghostly blue light enveloped him.

Boom!

His figure flashed as he actually tore an opening through the vortex and bolted out through it.

How could Lin Xun let him escape? He immediately gave chase.

Outside the vortex, the array runes whirled. Little Five, sitting at the center of it, quickly responded by activating its power.

Therefore, as soon as Wen Shaoheng got out, he was directly put under a heavy restrictive force. He stumbled, almost falling flat.

If the ghostly blue dao light covering him hadn’t helped to dissolve that oppressive force, then he would have been completely suppressed by now with no possibility of resisting.

“This damn thing!” Wen Shaoheng's face was unsightly. He realized that the situation wasn’t good.

Boom!

Without giving Wen Shaoheng a chance to catch his breath, Lin Xun and clones had arrived and blasted the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron, Dao Endless Pagoda, and Broken Blade at him in unison.

Wen Shaoheng's soul almost bubbled out as he shrieked furiously, “Break!”

On his neck, a white jade pendant suddenly glowed. From it, a majestic and immeasurable illusory figure emerged.

The figure resembled the immortal ruler of heaven with billions of lights dropping from it. The moment it appeared, it swung out its fist.

Rumble~

The grand array exploded like there was an earthquake.

The punch actually repelled all of Lin Xun's treasures and attacks!

Lin Xun's eyes froze. He judged at once that it was the will power of an immortal figure because the might it exhibited was too powerful.

“Break!” bellowed Wen Shaoheng.

In response, the towering figure made a hand seal, and an indescribably terrifying force crazily gathered right that instant.

Lin Xun’s face immediately sank. He shouted, “Little Five, withdraw!”

Little Five rushed out without thinking.

KABOOM!

In a heaven-shaking rumble, the Nine Hells Divine Binding Array directly exploded into countless torrents of light sweeping out.

The force caused the landmass to quake violently.

Even though Lin Xun had resisted with all his might, pushing his power to the limit, he was still sent flying back. Blood dripped down from the corners of his lips, and his face slightly paled.

At the moment, the towering figure of will had disappeared from the field. There was no sign of Wen Shaoheng either.

Obviously, after the array was broken, he hadn’t dared to hesitate at all and escaped at the first opportunity.

Lin Xun's face clouded over.

Wen Shaoheng's combat prowess was indeed very strong, far above that of Fang Xuanzhen of Great Everlasting Sword Hall.

However, for Lin Xun, Wen Shaoheng was not a big threat. The only thing he hadn’t expected was that the fellow had more than just one or two trump cards up his sleeve!

Otherwise, he would have had no chance of escaping today.

Still, it made sense. As an important member of an Immortal Imperial Clan, how could Wen Shaoheng not be equipped with ample life-saving measures?

Just as Lin Xun's expression flickered dimly, the smoke dispersed.

It revealed the dao body who had fought the Wen Clan's Emperor experts earlier. Now, the dao body was fast on his way to meet up with him.
