Chapter 995 Terminus Desert
Whoosh!
Lin Xun didn’t hesitate to summon the Grand Universe Ark and set off for Sand Cloud City at full speed.
The other side wielded superb tracking abilities. Moreover, they were the overlord of the Ancient Blue Province. If he gave them time to make sufficient arrangements, it would become somewhat difficult to leave the province.
In short, although Lin Xun wasn’t afraid of threats, he did not wish to waste his time on such inconveniences.
After all, he had more important matters to attend to.
For example, paying a visit to the Omega Sword Sect!
……
Sand Cloud City.
The city bordered a vast desert in the Ancient Blue Province.
It was rumored that the desert was originally a blessed cultivation land with beautiful mountains and dense aeth energy. However, a catastrophe struck, and it was destroyed by an attack from a supreme demonic weapon wielded by an ancient Big Saint expert!
The mountains were destroyed, the rivers dried up, and the land was fractured. As time passed, the place slowly became a desert.
Due to the ruthless killing qi and seemingly eternal demonic qi that pervaded the desert, it was often called the ‘Terminus Desert’ by cultivators.
Sand Cloud City was located in the vicinity of the Terminus Desert.
Whoosh!
A figure flew over from afar, revealing itself to be a full-bearded, middle-aged man. He gently landed on the ground and headed toward Sand Cloud City.
It was Lin Xun in disguise.
"Eh?"
When he arrived at the city gates, he saw a wanted poster depicting a handsome young man above it.
Underneath the picture was a brief description: "Name, Lin Xun, also commonly known as Demon God Lin. He is very evil and vicious. If anyone can provide any information about him, they will be rewarded ten thousand high-grade aeth essences!"
Presently, there were many cultivators pointing and commenting on the poster.
"As someone who is listed as wanted by the Heaven Axis Holy Land, he must be an unscrupulous demon!"
"I wonder what horrible crime he committed that resulted in this."
Several people were engrossed in discussion.
Lin Xun, on the other hand, inwardly shivered. He had not expected the Heaven Axis Holy Land to move so quickly.
In fact, he began to suspect that it wasn’t only Sand Cloud City. Similar wanted posters had probably been put up in the other cities in the Ancient Blue Province!
"It is impossible for an ancient orthodoxy to go so far solely for revenge. They obviously have something else in mind!"
Lin Xun pondered as he walked into the city.
An ancient altar stood at the center of the city. It was thoroughly marked by the passage of time and emanated cryptic and mysterious restriction undulations.
It was an ancient teleportation array!
Only Saint experts who mastered the ultimate secrets of spatial control could produce teleportation arrays that allowed cultivators to cross millions of miles in a flash.
This ancient array was usually extremely busy because it was used by many cultivators to travel to other locations in the East Victory World.
Today, however, it was on full lockdown!
Several groups of cultivators surrounded and guarded the array like a brick wall. There were even cultivators stationed in the sky.
"What right do you guys have to restrict the array? This teleportation array is a relic left by the ancient Saint experts to benefit all future generations and the people. Why can’t we use it?"
Some cultivators voiced their indignation.
"If you’re blocking off the teleportation array because of some random nobody I’ve never heard of that you call Demon God Lin, are you guys going to do the same whenever some random demon becomes a little famous in the future?"
Other cultivators also chimed in, creating an even bigger din. Like Lin Xun, these cultivators wanted to use the teleportation array. Hence, they were naturally unhappy about the restriction.
"This is a decree from the Heaven Axis Holy Land. If you don't agree with them, feel free to go to the Heaven Axis Holy Land and discuss it. If you guys keep making so much noise, you’d better believe we will arrest all of you!" shouted a fierce, powerful-looking elder from the sky, his voice booming like a thunderclap.
The discontented voices immediately stopped.
"It isn’t right for even the great Heaven Axis Holy Land to be this overbearing. I’ll give you one chance, start up the array now, or else!" Lin Xun walked forward. This was his only chance to leave. It would be too late if he allowed the Heaven Axis Holy Land forces to catch up.
"Who do you think you are, and how dare you threaten me?" The fierce elder’s face darkened as an invisible pressure spread, intimidating everyone.
He was the lord of Sand Cloud City and was named Yang Chengbo. He possessed half-step King stage cultivation and was an extremely powerful individual.
Rumble!
Lin Xun stepped into the air and arrived in front of Yang Chengbo in a flash. His hand reached out like a dragon emerging from the abyss with dazzling lights swirling around it.
Yang Chengbo laughed in anger. He never imagined that the middle-aged man would be so bold and arrogant. To think that he would suddenly attack after a single disagreement. Did he not know the meaning of death?
"Get lost!" Yang Chengbo shouted as he met the attack head-on.
To his surprise, however, the power of his strike was obliterated before it could be unleashed while the hand continued toward him with unstoppable momentum.
Crap!
Yang Chengbo’s expression abruptly changed, but it was already too late. His neck was grabbed by Lin Xun, who then ruthlessly flung him away as if throwing a piece of trash.
Yang Chengbo crashed, face-first, onto the hard ground with a loud boom, creating a large crater as rocks and gravel shot into the air.
Blood poured from his mouth and nose as he screamed while his body twitched in agony.
The entire place was silent, and everyone was frozen on the spot. It was hard to believe that Yang Chengbo, a half-step King expert who had been famous for many years, had been subdued so easily in the blink of an eye.
Crack!
Lin Xun descended from the sky. He stopped on Yang Chengbo's body and displayed an ice-cold expression. "I'll say it one final time, open the array!"
"Dao Friend, please don’t get angry!"
Yang Chengbo was a smart old man and knew that he had kicked a metal plate this time. He immediately bowed his head in an admission of defeat. "Regretfully, it is no longer possible to activate the array."
"Is the control talisman not with you?" Lin Xun frowned.
"Exactly!"
Yang Chengbo hurriedly said, "The control talisman was sent to the Heaven Axis Holy Land the moment it was decided to lock down the array."
As an array left by the ancient Saint experts, it naturally wasn’t so simple to activate.
The only way to activate and operate the array was through the corresponding control talisman. This was knowledge Lin Xun was naturally well aware of as a rune founder.
"If that is the case, isn’t it redundant to lock down this place?" Lin Xun's expression was frosty as he released his killing intent.
Yang Chengbo’s entire body shivered uncontrollably as a chill filled him. The killing intent alone made him realize that he was facing a ruthless individual who would not hesitate in the slightest to exterminate him.
"It’s a decree from the Heaven Axis Holy Land in order to draw out Demon God Lin and capture him..." At this point, Yang Chengbo seemed to realize something, causing his expression to abruptly change as he involuntarily blurted out, "You...you can’t be..."
Bang!
Before he could finish, Lin Xun knocked him unconscious with a stomp.
He then looked around. Everyone else was still frozen in shock, seemingly overwhelmed by the turn of events.
Lin Xun didn’t give up and interrogated a few other cultivators blocking the ancient array. However, all of them confirmed that Yang Chengbo's words were true and the ancient array’s control talisman wasn’t present.
This is going to be problematic.
Lin Xun inwardly sighed.
There were only three ancient teleportation arrays in the Ancient Blue Province. One was located in the Heaven Axis Holy Land, one was located in the Sand Cloud City, and the last one was located in Gengmu City.
However, Lin Xun was certain that the situation was probably the same in Gengmu City. Hence, heading there probably wasn’t a good idea.
"Does the Heaven Axis Holy Land actually intend to deploy a heavenly net to trap me in the Ancient Blue Province?" Uncontrollable murderous intent surged in Lin Xun’s heart.
Without the control talisman to activate the ancient array, it was impossible for even a rune founder like Lin Xun to start up the teleportation array.
After all, it was a relic of the ancient Saint experts that involved the secrets of spatial movement. It was a subject that was still currently beyond him.
"If that’s the case, I look forward to seeing whether your lock will be able to trap me!"
Whoosh!
Lin Xun swiftly rose into the air.
It was no longer suitable to stay here.
"Who is that? He’s beyond terrifying!"
"He only has Cyclic Derivation cultivation, yet he managed to defeat a half-step King expert with a snap of his fingers. How can such a formidable individual exist?"
It was only after Lin Xun left that the oppressive atmosphere was finally dispersed. Many cultivators breathed long sighs of relief before they could not help but exclaim in amazement.
"Who else could it be but Demon God Lin in disguise?!"
"That’s right, it must be him. I just did not expect him to be so powerful. No wonder Heaven Axis Holy Land views him as such a big threat that they did not hesitate to issue a wanted notice to the entire Ancient Blue Province cultivation world."
"I’m afraid he’ll be killed soon no matter how great he is. After all, it is impossible for him to stand up to the Heaven Axis Holy Land forces alone."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Soon after, a group of experts from the Heaven Axis Holy Land arrived like an army of locusts crushing through the clouds.
They covered the sky and blotted out the sun, giving off an aura that shook the heavens!
Upon learning what had happened here, Nangong Huo exploded in anger, "He escaped again!"
"Where has he gone?"
"The Yin Yang Spirit Locking mirror indicates that he has fled to the Terminus Desert."
"Dispatch all of our forces and seal off the Terminus Desert!"
The giant army immediately set off again. They flew over Sand Cloud City and headed toward the Terminus Desert.
On this day, the entire Ancient Blue Province was shaken. A wanted notice from the Heaven Axis Holy Land shocked countless cultivators and stirred up giant uproars.
"Who is Demon God Lin?"
The majority were puzzled because they had never heard of such a person before.
From today, the young man known as Demon God Lin started to enter the people's sight.
Numerous factions moved following the orders of the Heaven Axis Holy Land as blockade after blockade was set up in the Ancient Blue Province.
For a time, a tense air permeated the cities in the Ancient Blue Province.
The huge commotion made the cultivators increasingly aware of how determined the Heaven Axis Holy Land was to eradicate Demon God Lin!
Lin Xun flew through the vast desert.
Out of a sense of carefulness, he didn’t use the Grand Universe Ark because it would consume a huge amount of aeth essences.
Secondly, it was too conspicuous. Despite its damaged state, it was still a Saint treasure after all that would be coveted by King stage old monsters if revealed.
