Chapter 2756 Prison of Alaya

Shua!

When the voices of the Four Fiend Venerables, Demon, Phantom, Wraith, and Goblin, fell, the world around them suddenly changed.

It was as if a bloody purgatory had descended. The heavens burned crimson, and the earth was drenched in red flames. Mountains of corpses loomed, seas of blood surged violently, and eerie wails, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, echoed endlessly through the void.

This was the power of a boundary realm! Born from the laws of order, it was not an illusion, but instead a realm suffused with the true laws of heaven and earth.

In this world, everywhere was steeped in the aura of blood, sin, and malevolence. A chilling presence gnawed at the heart and mind. An ordinary cultivator thrown into this realm would have had their will shattered on the spot. Even those below the Immortal level would find it impossible to resist.

Buzz—

Dao light rumbled and surged as Lin Xun’s tall figure glowed brightly. His gaze swept across the surroundings, but instead of panic, a calmness filled his eyes.

“This realm is called the Prison of Alaya. It is forged from four ninth-grade law artifacts: Blood Sin, Blood Punishment, Blood Sacrifice, and Blood Refinement. Within this realm, even the slightest flaw in one’s state of mind is enough to become a fatal weakness.” Not far away, Feiyun’s expression was grim. “The Prison of Alaya...a treasure set of the Empty Hidden World. I never imagined they would unleash it against you.”

Shua!

Before his voice had even faded, an invisible sword qi descended silently from the sky, piercing straight toward Lin Xun’s head with inconceivable speed. It was utterly strange, without the slightest fluctuation of power and without so much as a sound, making it impossible to guard against.

Clang!

However, in that instant, the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron emerged above Lin Xun, intercepting the strike. The invisible blade qi exploded, shattering inch by inch in midair. Unfortunately, before the first strike had even ended, a scarlet spike quietly appeared from the void beneath Lin Xun’s feet, gleaming with sinister light as it lunged viciously toward him.

Simultaneously, a black chain appeared in front of him, while a long, narrow bone sword swept in from behind him. The three attacks erupted together, descending like an inescapable net that aimed to tear Lin Xun apart in a single blow.

In addition, high above his head, a bronze spear was lying in wait! If Lin Xun tried to rush into the sky, he would be suppressed as well! This siege was not only cunningly ruthless, but also so flawless it left him with nowhere to flee, nowhere to evade.

The moment Feiyun noticed what was going on from afar, his whole body stiffened, his expression drastically changed, and he cried out, “Be careful!”

However, to everyone’s shock, Lin Xun didn’t move. He simply stood there motionless, like an unshakable rock, as if petrified. Then, a thunderous explosion erupted.

Feiyun saw something that was unimaginable to him. The scarlet spike, slender bone sword, and black chain were all obstructed by the power of the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron, unable to advance even an inch!

These terrifying immortal laws, interwoven with power brimming with murderous intent, were enough to easily claim the lives of Heavenly Longevity Immortals, yet they were actually fended off by the cauldron and continuously dissolved.

“Hey!”

“What a treasure!”

“I want that sword cauldron!”

As the surprised voices rang out, the spike, bone sword, and black chain all vanished into thin air. Even the bronze spear overhead was gone without a trace. From beginning to end, the Four Fiend Venerables had never appeared. This seemed extremely strange and suspicious.

However, Lin Xun remained calm, his expression as still as an ancient well. He said, “Fellow Daoist Feiyun, be careful. Don’t let them restrain you.”

Boom!

After finishing his warning, Lin Xun stepped forward and his body erupted with power like a colossal abyss overturning the heavens. The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood struggled to withstand such terrifying might and collapsed with a thunderous rumble. This whole world seemed about to be suppressed and dragged into ruin!

Whoosh—

A black chain came roaring over, stirring up rings of terrifying black ripples. Immortal dao light surged forth, faintly interwoven with countless law powers. Its terror was beyond measure. Lin Xun suddenly thrust out his hand to grab it.

Boom!

Amidst the crashing sound, rings of black ripples erupted and shattered in the void. Just as the black chain was about to slip away, it was already clutched tightly in Lin Xun’s hand. Then with a sudden jerk of his wrist, from the far end of the black chain, deep in the distant void, a figure was yanked out. It was none other than Venerable Wraith who was staggering now!

He was a man with a tall, gaunt frame, he looked utterly shaken, as if unable to believe that Lin Xun dared to meet him with nothing but his palm.

“Unleash!”

With a furious shout, the black chain shuddered violently, erupting with unfathomable black light. Waves of immortal law power surged forth, crashing toward Lin Xun like a landslide, like a raging tsunami.

Despite that, Lin Xun stood unmoved. As those forces crashed toward him, they were instantly pulverized by the dao light spilling from the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron, leaving him completely unharmed.

Venerable Wraith’s expression abruptly changed. At that instant, a dao sword shot forth from the cauldron, cleaving lightly through the void.

Snap!

The thousand-foot-long black chain snapped clean in half. In the distance, Venerable Wraith coughed up blood from the backlash. That chain had been his immortal dao weapon for years, but now it had been destroyed in an instant.

“Die!”

Suddenly, a blood-red spike, bronze spear, and slender bone sword appeared to Lin Xun’s left, right, and above his head, all hurtling toward him at once. The power of this strike was far more terrifying than before.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

An earth-shattering collision resounded. Although the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron managed to block the assault, it was shaken violently under the impact, causing Lin Xun to sway as his blood and qi surged chaotically within him.

These old fogeys really do have formidable cultivation!

His eyes narrowed, a glint of cold killing intent flashing within them. He drew a deep breath, then suddenly lunged forward.

Boom!

The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron erupted, flooding the heavens with billions of strands of obscure dao light. Countless immortal laws swirled around it as Lin Xun’s essence, qi, and spirit surged together. At this moment, he unleashed his cultivation to its absolute peak.

From afar, he was like an abyss erupting in full force, ready to swallow heaven and earth whole, obliterate all creation and reign with unmatched tyrannical might. All of a sudden, an incomparably fierce battle broke out. The whole world was thrown into chaos as endless scenes of collapse and destruction spread in every direction.

Even Feiyun, watching from afar, was utterly dumbstruck. Those were the four fiends of the Empty Hidden World! They were the four most elite assassins of the Heavenly Longevity Stage. They had lived through countless years, and more than a hundred Immortals had fallen at their hands.

However, even after bringing out the Prison of Alaya, and striking with their combined might, all four of them were actually held back by Lin Xun alone!

“The Prison of Alaya’s law powers seem to have no effect on this kid!”

Amidst the clash, Venerable Phantom’s grave, whispering voice rang out. The Prison of Alaya was their ultimate trump card. It combined four ninth grade Heaven Rank laws, and its power was enough to annihilate almost any opponent of the same cultivation stage. Unfortunately for them, Lin Xun was an exception.

“Watch out for his sword cauldron! It’s unbelievably sharp! One strike could shatter our dao weapons!” Not far away, Venerable Wraith spoke through gritted teeth. The destruction of his black chain made him feel as if his heart was aching and bleeding, and he now fully realized the terror of Lin Xun’s sword cauldron.

“We can’t drag this out any longer! Use the trump card now!” Venerable Goblin bellowed.

Boom!

During the battle, Venerable Demon’s figure suddenly grew tall and imposing, like a towering giant. From every pore of his body surged a vast demonic domain, within which countless gods and demons chanted in unison. Three Thousand Demon Domains Suppress the Sky!

At that moment, Venerable Demon seemed to have become the very embodiment of the universe, his body encompassing endless demon domains. The might of countless gods and demons within those domains gathered upon him alone, elevating his power to an incomparably terrifying level.

“Rise!”

Venerable Phantom’s figure flickered, and countless strands of bizarre blood-colored lightning erupted, condensing into a blood-red lotus of lightning. She stood proudly at its center, her entire body shrouded in an immortal radiance. Blood Lighting Flower Refines the Nine Heavens!

“You forced us!’

“Descend!”

Almost at the same time, the aura of Venerable Wraith and Venerable Goblin also underwent a sudden and drastic transformation.

Around Venerable Wraith, countless crimson vortexes whirled into being, exuding an eerie devouring power, as though countless bloody maws had opened between heaven and earth. Sea of Thousand Vortices Devours the Nine Netherworlds!

As for Venerable Goblin, three thousand arms appeared densely across his body, each palm bearing a wide-open scarlet eye that glared menacingly at the world. Demonic Dao Pupils Illuminate All Realms!

In the blink of an eye, the power of the four venerables underwent a complete transformation, as if they had become entirely different beings.

“Kill!”

With thunderous roars, they attacked with all their might, like hellish demon gods descending upon the world, unleashing their ultimate, immortal powers. In an instant, sinister demonic domains engulfed the land, lightning surged into a boundless sea, vortexes devoured the heavens, and a demonic pupil cast its light over mountains and rivers!

From afar, Feiyun’s eyes flashed with determination. He could no longer hold back. Lin Xun’s perilous situation made his heart clench in anguish.

Just then, Lin Xun suddenly burst into laughter, “Good! You didn’t disappoint me after all. At last...it’s worth unleashing my full strength!”

Feiyuin froze.

Boom!

An indescribable, terrifying power erupted from Lin Xun’s towering figure. At the same time, the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron let out a clear, stirring hum, like the cry of a beast thirsting for a feast of blood.

“Open!”

Lin Xun’s long hair whipped wildly as the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron blazed with boundless radiance, spewing infinite dao light that swept in all directions. At that moment, it was as if heaven and earth utterly collapsed.

Venerable Demon bore the brunt of the force, staggering back as the countless demonic domains manifested on his body seemed to be struck by a world-ending calamity. More than half of them were annihilated in an instant.

Immediately after that, the slender bone sword in Venerable Phantom’s hand was cleaved apart, as flimsy as if it were made of paper. Before she could evade, the power released by the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron came crashing down like a landslide.

Boom!

Beneath her feet, the strange flower forged from blood-red lightning withered away, letting out a mournful shriek as its radiance dimmed and died. She could no longer hold it in and spat a mouthful of blood.

Elsewhere, the countless vortexes swirling around Venerable Wraith’s body collapsed in an instant, and the boundless might of the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron hurled his body violently through the air.

At the same time, Venerable Goblin let out a muffled groan of agony as his three thousand arms were ripped apart, leaving countless severed limbs scattering while blood sprayed across the void in a horrific spectacle.

Seizing the opening, Lin Xun tore his way out of the encirclement, his figure majestic and imposing like a god descending into the world!

All this happened in the blink of an eye, so swift that even Feiyun, who was ready to sacrifice his life for Lin Xun’s escape, had no time to act before it was already over. By the time he came to his senses, the Four Fiend Venerables had already been struck with grievous injuries, while Lin Xun had shattered their encirclement!

The carnage before his eyes shook him to his core, forcing a sharp gasp, “No wonder he could soar to the rank of deputy deacon of the Origin Sect in barely a year. He’s truly a genius among geniuses, a monster among monsters...”

“Whether I can break through today...shall be decided by your strength!” Laughing loudly, Lin Xun stood tall and unrestrained, his bearing cold and heroic. He seemed to be entirely unleashed, unbound, and unshackled, as though nothing in the world could restrain him.

Boom!

Overhead, the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron roared, shaking the firmament as its power grew fiercer and fiercer. The faces of the Four Fiend Venerables turned ashen and twisted with fury.

This brat dares to use us as stepping stones for his breakthrough!!
