The Dao Meaning Stage was the second stage of comprehending the dao, which was beyond the stage of the Dao Ripple.

Only after a cultivator had reached this stage could they manipulate Dao Meaning power to integrate with their own dao for combat and cultivation.

Generally speaking, only a small number of great Cyclic Derivation Stage cultivators would be able to comprehend and grasp the power of Dao Meaning with the blessings of heaven and earth.

However, Lin Xun, who possessed a foundation of the Heaven Ascension Stage, was able to see through the Dao Meaning of Water. This was very unusual and almost unheard of in the world.

In the glow of the setting sun, the clouds seemed to have flames burning behind them.

Lin Xun’s figure appeared by a calm, blue lake.

The surface of the lake was as clear as a mirror, reflecting the beautiful landscape of the nearby mountains and rivers in great detail.

At that moment, Lin Xun’s state of mind was as calm and peaceful as the still lake surface. He was able to appreciate and perceive the beauty of heaven and earth that he never felt before.

The heaven and earth possessed beauties without words, the four seasons came and went without discussion, and all things in the world had their own principles of growth without discussion. Only when one quietly understood it would they know its true meaning!

His state of mind was incredibly clear after comprehending the Dao Meaning of Water. “When the heart is as still as water, it can illuminate the great thousand!”

Standing by the lake, Lin Xun stretched out his fists and silently performed the movements of Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art.

He didn’t mobilize his cultivation base, but his punching stance and movements radiated the meaning of water. It was as smooth, simple and natural as flowing water. Even if there weren’t any showy fireworks, it was still indescribably beautiful.

The calm lake surface in the distance rippled like it was resonating with the invisible power of the fist.

Soon, the ripples rose into turbulent waves, rumbling like thunder and lifting the water hundreds of feet high. It was as though several water dragons were being drawn by the fist strength, galloping and roaring in the air.

In the end, millions of water currents were gushing and rolling up between heaven and earth. There was a majestic and endless atmosphere.

The whole world began to tremble; the nearby mountains were swaying, and the ancient trees of the dense forest were rattling.

The fierce birds and beasts that inhabited the mountains and forests fled for their lives.

Boom!

As Lin Xun performed the fist techniques, he became more and more engrossed, and the world shuddered more and more rapidly. The mountains and lakes were completely flooded.

Even a hundred miles away, one could hear the roaring of fists and the surging of water like thunder rumbling from the nine heavens.

It was too shocking. He was able to produce such earthshaking power without circulating any aeth power and only from integrating the Dao Meaning of Water into his fist!

At that moment, the shimmering water lingering around Lin Xun’s tall and slender figure added an ethereal and illusionary charm to him.

Boom!

Suddenly, he withdrew his fist and stepped forward. A Hornless Ice Dragon soared into the air. Its body was over thousands of feet long like a mountain ridge, glistening like crystal. It threw its head back and roared skywards like a real ancient Hornless Ice Dragon had descended upon the world.

The Hornless Ice Dragon Step!

Boom!

It crumbled a nearby mountain with a tail slap.

At the same time, Lin Xun raised his head and two rays of light burst from his eyes like lightning bolts. He lifted his hands and lightly folded them together in the air.

An astonishing scene happened. The collapsing mountain peak suddenly stilled like it had been frozen.

The flying smoke, dust, and gravel all suddenly became motionless.

Baxia Imprisonment!

It didn’t stop there. Lin Xun continued to display the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations in full majesty, including the Bi’an Stamp, Bixi Collision, Pulao Roar and Yazi’s Rage.

Unlike in the past, after integrating with the Dao Meaning of Water, the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations underwent an earth-shaking transformation in terms of power. It was two times stronger than before!

At nightfall, Lin Xun was still testing his new martial arts power. He had reshaped his fighting power using the Dao Meaning of Water.

An unknown period passed.

Boom!

He suddenly retracted his fist, and the turbulent power between heaven and earth dissipated like it had lost its guidance.

At the same time, he exuded a frightening force that spread in all directions. All the birds and beasts within a radius of a hundred miles sank to the ground, trembling and paralyzed.

That was the terrifying aura of an absolute apex king, a power unique to the perfect Heaven Ascension Stage. He was like a ruler of all kings, able to affect all living beings and force them into submission.

“This is the real perfect state. I finally achieved it...” His eyes shot out brilliant divine light that tore apart the darkness, and he radiated a uniquely perfect and ethereal charm.

He could distinctly feel his strength rocket; both his spirit power and cultivation base had soared!

Soon, everything resumed its calm state. The lake was as tranquil as before, gleaming from the silvery starlight, and the distant mountains were silent and still, shrouded in the darkness of night.

Occasionally, the chirping of insects sounded.

He felt as though if he lifted his hand, he could pick the stars in the sky, and if he took a step forward, he could teleport across mountains and rivers.

Of course, this was an illusion he had from his newly gained strength, but he had indeed become extremely powerful. He might be regarded as a king of the Heaven Ascension Stage before, but now, he had the confidence that he could suppress any other king in the Heaven Ascension Stage with ease.

“Next, I should start preparing to ascend to the Cyclic Derivation Stage!” He beamed, unable to hide his joy.

He had stagnated at the Heaven Ascension Stage in the Ziyao Empire, but now, he had finally reached the pinnacle of perfection of this stage. The sense of accomplishment and joy was no less than that of successfully scaling a dangerous mountain peak.

“He’s there!” A cold voice in the distance broke the peace and added a forbidding atmosphere.

“Act now!” Following the yelling, beams of dazzling light ripped the darkness and several figures glowed brightly like blazing suns.

Each of them had the terrifying aura of a half-step king. The moment they attacked, the mountain and valleys collapsed from the unbearable pressure and the area was plunged into chaos.

The real danger had begun!

Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes. It’s not a good sign for me that so many half-step kings are acting together. It means the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan mean business this time.

Clang!

Without hesitation, Lin Xun summoned the Broken Blade and charged forward to meet the attackers head-on.

He had no intention of running away. His strength and cultivation base had skyrocketed, and he had comprehended Dao Meaning power. Before the half-step kings arrived, he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to find opponents to test his strength.

More importantly, he was curious to see how terrifying the power of Broken Blade would be after integrating with the Dao Meaning of Water and controlling using the nameless inheritance of the dao rune array.

……

In a canyon full of jagged grotesque rocks, Gou Xuxing was gazing at the night sky with his hands behind his back and an ice-cold expression on his face.

Two old men were sitting cross-legged beside him, both dressed in black robes. Even though they sat casually, they exuded a stifling oppressive aura.

They were Gou Yangba and Gou Yangtong—both old monsters of the King Stage. They had made a name for themselves years ago and were much stronger than Gou Gui who had died in Lin Xun’s hands.

Generally, old monsters such as them rarely engaged themselves in worldly affairs and rarely showed up in the world. Many would be in closed-door cultivation to comprehend the secret of longevity or prepare for the longevity tribulations.

However, they had to come this time.

The reason was very simple. The tragic death of Gou Gui, a king of their Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, had shaken the clan, and they couldn’t tolerate the culprit of his death.

Moreover, there had been recent rumors that Lin Xun had single-handedly defeated several top experts of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan and that caused a sensation in the West Infinity World.

As a result, Lin Xun soared to fame. But for their Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, it was the greatest shame and humiliation!

If Lin Xun wasn’t killed, wouldn’t that mean that the mighty Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan failed to do anything to a teenager of the Heaven Ascension Stage? How could they maintain a foothold in the West Infinity World?

“Slaughter all the black nightmare dogs in the world? That kid...is too arrogant! He must have a death wish. We have to crush him to ashes to teach him a lesson!” Gou Yangba uttered indifferently with a malevolent and cold expression in his long and narrow eyes.

On the other side, Gou Yangtong frowned and said aloud, “It’s been so many days, but we haven’t heard any news about the kid being killed. Xuxing could your speculation be wrong?” His face was etched with wrinkles and his eyes were cloudy, but he was not inferior to Gou Yangba in terms of strength.

“Impossible,” Gou Xuxing replied unwaveringly. “The reason why he escaped last time was that he had a treasure ship which we suspect to be a saint treasure. Also, Lord Gou Gui met with an accident because he encountered a Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast and was heavily wounded.”

“By the way, Gou Shan and Gou Hai, two half-step kings, were also killed by the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast. That kid is no match for us!” A surge of anger and resentment rose in Gou Xuxing’s heart. Their defeat last time was too tragic.

They had been completely tricked by that kid. If it was a head-on clash, then that kid wouldn’t stand a chance at all.

“But why haven’t we been able to capture that kid after so many days? And why have we lost so many people on our side?”

Gou Yangtong’s expression was cold and indifferent, “Xuxing, you made such a serious mistake last time. If your grandfather hadn’t pleaded to give you another chance to redeem yourself, then the clan would have already stripped you of the position of young master and severely punished you.”

After a pause, he continued, “If you don’t seize this opportunity, you will have to face serious consequences. I believe you also know this.”

Gou Xuxing’s heart sank and he said with a pale face, “I understand. I have already sent five half-step kings to act together. Tonight, we can definitely take that kid’s head!”

Gou Yangtong said indifferently, “I also hope so. But if you can’t do it then we will have no choice but to take action. But if that happens, you won’t be able to redeem yourself again…”

Gou Xuxing’s chest tightened, and his face became paler and paler.

The clan seemingly sent two kings, Gou Yangba and Gou Yangtong, to assist him in killing Lin Xun, but in truth, the matter wasn’t that simple!
