Chapter 440 Fierce Battle

Swoosh!

Resplendent light descended from the sky, illuminating the night as it loomed toward Lin Xun.

A Heaven Ascension expert!

The crowd in the distance was shocked.

Lin Xun abruptly raised his head, revealing an expression of indifference. Only his black eyes surged with a horrifying light like a devastating storm from the abyss.

He horizontally swung the spear. Although it was a simple attack, it was filled with great power that shattered the blinding light with a loud bang.

Whoosh!

Lin Xin’s figure disappeared from the spot. He brandished the spear as he sprinted in the air like a Hornless Ice Dragon and fiercely thrust toward a certain spot.

“Eh!”

A surprised cry sounded from the exact area. The hidden expert had clearly not expected to be instantly discovered by Lin Xun.

At the same time, a mountain-like figure appeared and punched.

Boom!

The spear seemed to wail as it violently trembled. The ear-piercing sound rang out across the area, causing the crowd of cultivators in the distance to shiver as their expressions changed slightly.

From the clash, it was clear that the large figure possessed terrifying power.

Tatata~

Lin Xun was forced several steps backward, but he charged forward again almost immediately. His relentlessness surprised everyone.

He was merely a teenager that was covered in blood and injuries. No matter how heaven-defying his combat power was, he was still only an advanced Spirit Sea expert.

Despite this, he was not only unafraid of a Heaven Ascension expert but even took the offensive. It was just shocking that he displayed no hesitation from start to end.

Isn’t he afraid of death?

A battle erupted in the sky. Lin Xun brandished his spear as a faint divine azure glow burned around him, making him look as if he could devour even mountains and rivers with his aura alone.

His expression was coldly indifferent. Although he was repeatedly being pushed back, he did not incur any injuries and instead grew fiercer and fiercer, causing the onlookers’ jaws to drop.

His opponent was a large, muscular elder whose body was covered in golden scales that seemed to be forged from gold. They gave off a dazzling gleam as his oppressive aura suffocated the surroundings, and his blood and qi rumbled like thunder. It was a sight that would make anyone’s soul shiver.

Someone recognized the elder and could not help but cry out, “He’s the Heaven Ascension expert Daoist Bear from the Thousand Monster-Beast Palace!”

Daoist Bear was a monster-beast cultivator. His true form was a Herculean Gold Bear, and he had been cultivating for a thousand years!

“I can’t believe it’s Daoist Bear. Why is he here? Have the Thousand Monster-Beast Palace disciples also come to Mount Luohou?”

Numerous people were bewildered.

Thousand Monster-Beast Palace was an enormous faction where monster-beast cultivators gathered.

Although Daoist Bear only had initial Heaven Ascension cultivation, his true body was a Herculean Gold Bear with strong bloodline power. Hence, his combat power far surpassed any cultivator of the same stage!

Everyone was shocked once more by how Lin Xun could put up a fight against Daoist Bear. They could not imagine nor understand how this was possible.

Boom!

In the sky, Daoist Bear used his secret art, causing golden light to flow over all his body. Despite fighting bare-handed, every strike was accompanied by a sonic boom that rippled the air, showing its devastating power.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Lin Xun’s figure zipped about like a Hornless Ice dragon. A faint azure glow burned around the spear as it swept through the air with deadly force.

In the end, he was sent hurtling into the ground, creating a big crater and a cloud of dust.

“As someone who can exchange blows with me, you can consider yourself a genius among the humans. I will spare your life if you hand over the treasure, kneel, and acknowledge me as your master!”

Daoist Bear’s voice boomed like thunder as he oppressively strode toward the crater. It felt terrifying as if a giant mountain was descending.

Rustle!

Before he could approach, however, Lin Xun charged out and thrust his spear at Daoist Bear’s throat.

Hiss~

The crowd gasped, unable to believe their eyes. Lin Xun had clearly been beaten down, and they had all thought he was dead meat. Who could have imagined that he would charge out again!?

Did he have an undying body?

It was inconceivable. After all, Lin Xun had already been covered in wounds before the fight began.

Any other cultivator would have died long ago after being repeatedly crushed by Daoist Bear’s almighty power, but Lin Xun…still had the power to fight back!

How is he doing it?

“Eh?”

Daoist Bear was also bewildered, but his expression soon darkened. With a loud rumble, golden light surged wildly around him and swallowed the surroundings.

It was humiliating for a Heaven Ascension expert to fail to kill a Spirit Sea youngster.

He used his true power and his best techniques. The mighty aura of a Heaven Ascension expert spread, turning Daoist Bear into a golden monster-beast god that could startle the heavens.

Rumble~

The sky shattered and crumbled as the land split open. An oppressive killing intent unfurled, sweeping away dirt and rocks as everything rippled around him.

Lin Xun was swiftly swallowed. He was like a lonely little boat in a stormy sea that was constantly at the mercy of the waves and could capsize at any moment.

However, what surprised everyone was that even at this juncture, the youth was still stubbornly holding on. He clearly looked as if he was about to be crushed at any moment, and yet he always miraculously survived.

It was incredible and shocking!

Someone with a serious expression remarked uncertainly, “Have you guys noticed? His power is growing stronger and stronger. It’s like every defeat is raising his combat power.”

Numerous cultivators immediately noticed the same thing!

“How is this possible?”

“Could there be some sealed power in his body that needs to be unlocked layer by layer?”

“It makes no sense!”

Everyone was astonished. Lin Xun’s miraculous performance had stirred their hearts. Although there might be other Spirit Sea experts who could face Heaven Ascension experts in this world, there was only a small handful of them!

Lin Xun was all the more extraordinary even among them. Despite being injured, he grew increasingly ferocious and stronger as the battle continued. He was like an undying zombie, a thought that was unimaginably terrifying.

“Die!”

Daoist Bear roared as he shone brightly. Golden light rushed forth as a punch smashed through the air.

The spear in Lin Xun’s hand abruptly shattered as he was mercilessly knocked away, causing him to repeatedly cough blood.

However, a frightening aura soon erupted from his body again, and he rushed forward again with even greater power than before.

“This…”

Daoist Bear was taken aback. The human youngster was way too tenacious. Why wasn’t he dead after being defeated so many times?

Daoist Bear shouted, “Kid, tell me your name!”

He had a feeling that the youngster must come from an astonishing background and might be the successor of a powerful, hidden sect.

Boom!

Lin Xun’s expression remained indifferent. He did not reply but instead attacked with the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Arts.

He had not said a single word since the start of the battle, making him seem like a cold-blooded, single-minded killing machine.

“You’re asking for death!”

Daoist Bear was enraged by the youth’s nonchalance. With a wave of his sleeve, a golden curved blade appeared and slashed at Lin Xun.

Rumble!

Fist-wind and curved blade collided, creating an earth-shaking noise.

Lin Xun’s relentless aggression made the group of cultivators in the distance shocked and speechless.

Daoist Bear had used a weapon!

On the other side, Lin Xun was now fighting bare-handed. It was…pure brutality!

The clouds rippled, and the night sky seemed to crumble as the crazy battle dragged on.

Daoist Bear displayed his full ferocity. Every swing of his golden blade made the onlookers’ souls shiver in fear, and many of them retreated even further away to avoid the terrifying battle.

The battlefield had expanded far too much and not just anyone could withstand a Heaven Ascension expert’s power.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Lin Xun was repeatedly beaten back, but he always managed to avoid a fatal blow with the Hornless Ice Dragon Step.

The most terrifying part, however, was that his aura continued to climb as he fought. He was like an erupting abyss that was intensifying with every passing second.

The grasslands had been thoroughly ravaged. The ground was cracked and broken, many patches of grass had been turned to ashes, and space warped chaotically. It was a horrifying scene.

“Die!”

Daoist Bear’s roar exploded like thunder. Torrential golden light spewed from his golden blade like the waves of an ocean that rushed toward the shore with terrifying momentum.

The two battled into the sky and down to the ground. Several hills on the grasslands had been shattered, causing gravel to spray everywhere.

The closely following experts were stupefied as their bodies trembled. The might of the Heaven Ascension stage was horrifying, to say the least.

Every attack seemed capable of crushing mountains and overturning the sea.

However, they were not shocked by Daoist Bear but instead by the young man who was covered in blood and wounds.

How the hell is this Spirit Sea cultivator still resisting?!

It was not just them. Even Daoist Bear’s heart was filled with bewilderment. The more he fought, the more he realized that the human youngster was not just tenacious but growing more powerful with each passing moment!

How the hell is this a Spirit Sea expert?

He is an abnormality that was beyond comprehension!

……

Kill!

Lin Xun’s long hair danced around his indifferent face, his black eyes akin to a stormy abyss.

No one knew that power was erupting in his body like a volcano. It wreaked havoc in his body and was nearly about to burst him from the inside.

He had lost control after consuming the mysterious pill given to him by the empress, and even the joint efforts of the Mystery Grotto Devour Wilderness Scripture and Storm Grinder had failed to rein in the pill’s berserk power.

Lin Xun had originally believed it was because of the mysterious pill.

The moment he awakened, however, he realized that the source was not the pill but something above his four heart acupuncture points!

Above his four heart acupuncture points, an illusory aeth artery was phasing into existence little by little at a rate that could not be observed by the naked eye.

Its existence made all the power in his body explosively skyrocket.

It was as if the illusory aeth artery was an immeasurable abyss that was awakening from its deep slumber and manifesting into the world!

The mysterious pill from the empress was merely a trigger that had awakened it.

Origin Aeth Artery!

Grand Abyss Heaven Devourer!

Lin Xun realized that his body was changing. If the change succeeded, he might be able to regrow a new Origin Aeth Artery.

But if it failed, his body would explode and he would die!

Lin Xun’s current predicament was both filled with danger and the potential of an unimaginable blessing.

The battle was currently his only way to neutralize the danger!
