Chapter 2551 You Cheated!

At this moment, everyone felt as though the path Lin Xun was treading was a completely different one from what they had walked!

Otherwise, how could he do it so effortlessly, so comfortably, and so dashingly?

It was worth reminding that on the Heaven’s Chosen Path were battle marks left by the strongest experts of the last epoch, each of whom was a unique Chosen One. They went through intense and fatal competitions in the Heaven’s Chosen Battle that occurred once every one hundred thousand years before finally standing out as the ultimate winner.

As such, reaching the top of the mountain was like taking a trip back to the last epoch and defeating every single one of the strongest cultivators in all history.

This was definitely a task beyond difficult, otherwise, there would be more than just four supreme Emperor Ancestors who had successfully reached the peak this time.

Even supreme Emperor Ancestors like Mu Yi...had failed when they were so close to the destination!

When compared to their cases, Lin Xun's current performance on the Heaven’s Chosen Path could certainly be described as confounding, or perverse even.

He was too fast, and also too ethereal and relaxed, as if he was leisurely riding the wind through a park.

Who could accept this?

"This is impossible! He's a supreme eighth realm Great Emperor; he can’t be stronger than a supreme Emperor Ancestor!" Mu Yi was the first one to lose it.

He had already suffered more than one heavy blow to his dignity, all starting from Zhongli Xiao, but at least the first four’s successes were reasonable because they were all supreme Emperor Ancestors.

Now, however, a supreme eighth realm Great Emperor was showing the potential to ascend to the top. This reality consumed Mu Yi’s heart with rage as it gave him a great sense of disparity and imbalance. He could not understand how it made sense.

Qi Lingyun also spoke up resolutely, “I do not believe that he is doing this with his own strength. There must be something else behind this.”

There must always be something strange when affairs didn’t go as expected.

In her eyes, what Lin Xun was displaying was too abnormal. It went completely beyond everyone’s wildest imagination.

“You think so too?” Mu Yi perked up, as if he had found a soulmate.

The others remained silent, their minds reeling.

Of course they didn't want to believe it either, but this was the Heaven’s Chosen Battle, tightly monitored by the supreme legacy law power of the Central Immortal Court.

No matter how abnormal this was, it could not change the fact that Lin Xun was about to reach the top!

Any attempt to prove that he wasn’t doing this with his own strength...would seem a little dishonorable.

In everyone’s eyes, Mu Yi and Qi Lingyun were acting poorly at this moment.

Liuxiang Que and Xiang Xiaoyuan exchanged a glance and both saw the flash of disdain in each other’s eyes. They obviously didn’t think highly of Mu Yi’s and Qi Lingyun’s behavior.

Right at this moment, the field went into an uproar, because like an immortal, Lin Xun easily floated up atop the mountain!

“The whole process took less than thirty breaths...” Someone trembled.

“Simply inconceivable!”

“How did Menace Lin do that?”

The area became a pan of boiling oil as endless discussions rang out. Everybody was astonished by the feat that Lin Xun had just achieved.

“Something is definitely not right!” Mu Yi gritted his teeth, his face livid.

Meanwhile, Qi Lingyun had regained her composure. She also realized that she had been a bit out of character. Despite that, her hand couldn’t help but clench around the scroll when she saw Lin Xun reach the peak so easily.

“Uncle, had you ever once expected this outcome before?” Xiang Xiaoyuan's eyes glazed over.

“I couldn't even if I racked my brain,” lamented Liuxiang Que whose heart was also tumbling. The more he came into contact with Lin Xun, the more surprises he saw on this young man from the Ancient Nebula Road. It was as though there was nothing in the world that he couldn't do.

“This epoch's...Chosen One...” Xiang Xiaoyuan suddenly smiled.

On the contrary, she actually found this to be normal.

Because that person was Lin Xun!

A little deeper into the mountain top shrouded in steaming holy mist, the magnificent and brilliant Central Immortal Court stood, resembling the residence of the gods.

Upon arriving at the top, Lin Xun immediately felt a suppression on his cultivation again. He stood in place and was unable to move at all.

He finally understood why Zhongli Xiao and the other three didn't go to the Central Immortal Court right away; they weren’t considered the Chosen One yet.

“You...” Zhongli Xiao's face was gloomy. He looked like he had a mouthful to say but couldn't utter anything.

Chi Pojun’s expression was also clouded like he had mistakenly eaten a fly.

Lin Feng was quiet as usual, but there was now suspicion and a sliver of frost in his eyes when he looked at Lin Xun.

As for Blade Bearer, although it was impossible to see this person’s expression under the bamboo hat, their heart was bound to be unsettled.

Lin Xun’s quick and easy arrival at the mountain top was clearly not a small blow to even successful challengers like them.

“Me what?” Lin Xun kindly inquired out of worry that Zhongli Xiao would suffocate from holding it in for too long.

𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

As if venting all of his emotions, Zhongli Xiao said word by word, "You! Cheated!"

His voice traveled through the nine heavens.

The entire audience was stunned. Many people were trying so hard not to burst out in laughter that the corners of their lips twitched violently.

To think that this kind of ridiculous accusation had actually come from the mouth of Zhongli Xiao, a supreme Emperor Ancestor. The contrast was really too great.

Chi Pojun and Lin Feng both couldn't help but look away, clearly also appalled by Zhongli Xiao's exasperated words.

Lin Xun, on the other hand, was stunned, and inwardly gave Zhongli Xiao a thumbs-up.

This buddy has discerning eyes!

As a matter of fact, Lin Xun was also in a slightly bewildered mood at the moment.

The moment he had stepped onto the Heaven's Chosen Path, he noticed right away that something was unusual. The ever-silent Jade Disk of Fortune had suddenly generated strange fluctuations in the form of invisible ripples.

Whenever a battle mark left by an expert from the previous epoch appeared, the disk collected it before he could do anything.

One after another, those battle marks were harvested by the disk... It was like picking fruits all along the way...

Lin Xun was given no opportunity to fight at all!

He couldn’t do anything about it. He also attempted to test and see exactly how strong the previous Chosen Ones were, but who would have thought...that the Jade Disk of Fortune forced him to cheat without a trace in such an important competition...

What Jade Disk of Fortune? More like Jade Disk of Making Fools of People...

Although Lin Xun found it to be a bizarre experience, the feeling of rocking all the way to the top without any effort was indeed...awesome!

At the moment, the Jade Disk of Fortune had returned to silence like a well-fed beast falling into slumber. The battle marks of the supreme experts, like the complete Immortal dao laws and the Origin Dao Canon, had become a part of it.

Lin Xun vaguely remembered that back in the Taiyi Ruins, there had seemed to be a law spirit in the Jade Disk of Fortune. It had appeared for only a split second before dissipating into a rain of light.

He had suspected then that this law spirit was most likely the governing spirit of the Immortal World in the last epoch!

Now, having collected the Origin Dao Canon and the battle marks of the strongest of the last epoch, Lin Xun felt more and more sure that there was a law spirit within the Jade Disk of Fortune, but it had always been silent.

“You must have used some cheating method, otherwise the challenge wouldn’t have been so easy for you even if you were an Emperor Ancestor.” Zhongli Xiao’s face was unsightly when realizing that he had lost his cool, but at least he had regained his composure now.

He arrived at the same judgment as Qi Lingyun. Chi Pojun and Lin Feng were also suspicious about this.

Lin Xun of course wouldn't admit it. He said with a poker face, “Is this a loser's excuse? To be exact, you, Zhongli Xiao, can't afford to lose?”

Zhongli Xiao immediately gritted his teeth, “It's fine if you don't admit it. When we leave this place, I have my own means to test your real battle power, and at that time, the truth will be revealed!”

Lin Xun laughed and said no more.

Dum!

A holy drum sound reverberated.

At the pillar on one the side of the Central Immortal Court, where it was engraved ‘with the jade drum being struck to greet the gods,’ a big drum wreathed in drifting light had emerged. The drum sound had come from it.

Following that, a divine light shot out from within the closed door of the Central Immortal Court. Dazzling, crystalline, illusory, and magical, it instantly enveloped Lin Xun.

The next second, he vanished into thin air.

Meanwhile Zhongli Xiao, Chi Pojun, Lin Feng, and Blade Bearer on the peak were whisked back to the cliff by an invisible force.

They ascended to the top, indeed, but there was no reward for them in the end...

This sent their hearts through a series of emotional ups and downs. The four fell into a sulky mood that the others present could never understand, and it was suffocating them.

“It's actually Menace Lin who became the Heaven’s Chosen One...” The crowd of cultivators at the cliff edge wore expressions of shock, envy, and disbelief.

Previously, they had all thought that this supreme fortune would fall into the hands of a noble from the Eighth Heaven Domain.

However, the final result was instead one that none had expected!

“The Ruins of the Gods are regarded as the number one forbidden zone of the Great Thousand Battle Domain, and this fortune definitely can be called the greatest treasure from the last epoch!”

"Menace Lin’s battle prowess is already heaven-defying. With the addition of this fortune, he won’t have to worry about becoming a supreme Ancestor and realize immortality one day."

All sorts of laments rang out.

Think about it, Lin Xun was already able to dominate Emperor Ancestors, leave his name on the Mythic Ranking, wipe out the experts of the Nan Clan, the Li Clan, and various great powers of the Seventh Heaven Domain, etc. before this.

Now that he had obtained this kind of supreme fortune, how terrifying would his future achievements be?

“Getting it doesn't necessarily mean he will be able to keep it!” said a person darkly. “Do you think that Lin Xun will still be able to leave the Great Thousand Battle Domain after he obtains this fortune?”

At this remark, the crowd’s expressions immediately changed into something subtle.

There were quite a few immortal figures waiting outside the Ruins of the Gods!

If they were to learn that the supreme fortune had fallen into Lin Xun’s hands, how could they possibly allow him to make it out alive right under their noses?

Take a look at the four clans under Donghuang, and then another at the nobles from various immortal giants, who among them would tolerate him leaving with the fortune and his life?
