Chapter 701: Chapter 474: Completely Overpowered, the Might of the Five Flames Sacred Fire
Gu Shan wasn’t stupid. If Lin Chang’sheng’s cultivation was weaker than his, maybe Gu Shan would’ve turned on him—for sure, every treasure inside an Immortal Cave Mansion was extraordinary.
But Lin Chang’sheng could easily wipe out even Tribulation Crossing Stage powerhouses; if Gu Shan got greedy, he’d probably be the next to die.
So at this moment, Gu Shan didn’t dare make any reckless moves at all.
Lin Chang’sheng had originally wanted to step forward to see what treasures were inside these wooden boxes. If there was something he didn’t need, he could just give it to Gu Shan.
Although Gu Shan’s cultivation was so-so, if he could bring the Gu Family of Futian Province onto his side, it would still be a pretty decent play.
Ssshhhhh—
Yet the very next instant, he heard a series of urgent whooshing sounds coming from behind.
Lin Chang’sheng simply waved his hand, intending to sweep all three wooden boxes—along with that Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure atop the Sword Tomb—into his storage bag.
But he discovered every single item was bound with a powerful restriction, so he couldn’t collect them into the storage bag just yet.
Looked like, to get these treasures, he’d need to break those restrictions first.
Mu Zhen Tian wasn’t stupid either. If some random guy happened to stumble in and steal his treasures, he’d never find a worthy inheritor.
So these restrictions were actually tests left for those who came after him.
Only those who could pass the tests would be able to claim the treasures he’d left behind.
"Elder Xu, you can’t hold it in any longer?"
Once the four figures made it inside the cave mansion, Lin Chang’sheng realized two of these people were old acquaintances.
Lin Chang’sheng gave a dismissive sneer—who else could it be but Xu Tiancang and Guo Yunchu from Immortal Martial Hall, plus the Poison Flame Elders.
The truth was, Lin Chang’sheng had already known Xu Tiancang had branded him with a mark.
He knew they’d been tailing him.
But Lin Chang’sheng hadn’t erased the brand—he’d just wanted to see what their real intentions were.
Did they genuinely want him to join Immortal Martial Hall? Or was it all just an act?
Looking at it now, fake sincerity was looking a lot more likely.
Upon seeing Lin Chang’sheng, Xu Tiancang stayed very polite, but now that all these treasures were out in the open, it was clear their goal was more than just inviting him to Immortal Martial Hall.
"Lin, you really had us searching high and low! No wonder you didn’t want to come to our Immortal Martial Hall. Turned out you knew where the Immortal Cave Mansion was—you really opened my eyes!"
Xu Tiancang paused, then continued, "If Lin is willing to come with us to Immortal Martial Hall, we won’t make things difficult for you!"
Hearing this, a faint smile curled at the corner of Lin Chang’sheng’s lips. So they really thought they had him cornered?
"You think I don’t know you branded me?"
Lin Chang’sheng glanced at Xu Tiancang, which left Xu a little baffled—if he knew, why hadn’t he removed it?
Was he deliberately luring them in?
Lin Chang’sheng did have the power to kill Tribulation Crossing Cultivators, but just to be sure, Xu Tiancang had gathered both their top Tributors before following him here.
With three Tribulation Crossing Stage experts here, if they still couldn’t handle Lin Chang’sheng, they might as well quit the cultivation world.
"Since you knew, why didn’t you erase it?"
Xu Tiancang asked, confused.
"Elder Xu, what are you wasting time talking for? This bastard has insulted our Immortal Martial Hall, he cannot be left alive. If we let him grow stronger, will he care about our Hall at all?"
Guo Yunchu sneered with disdain.
She had always hated Lin Chang’sheng. This guy was unbearably arrogant and never gave her any respect.
With three Tribulation Crossing experts present today, there was no way they’d let Lin Chang’sheng walk out alive.
"Because as far as I’m concerned, if you people try to mess with me, it’s just a way to get yourselves killed. There’s still time to walk away now, but if you risk your lives for some treasure, it’s your funeral."
Lin Chang’sheng spoke each word slowly and clearly, utterly unmoved by Xu Tiancang and the rest.
With the Nine Heavens Soul-Devouring Immortal Array set up, it was flat-out impossible for Early Stage Tribulation Crossing experts to harm him.
Sure, the Nine Heavens Soul-Devouring Immortal Array could only pull one person in at a time.
And the other side had three people, but Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t the least bit afraid to take on a Tribulation Crossing expert one-on-one.
After all, with the power of the Divine Flame Realm, he could fight above his rank.
"What an outrageous mouth you’ve got! I’d like to see just what you can do!"
Elder Du barked furiously—this punk was only at Middle Stage Mahayana, why waste words?
He’d just smash him with one palm strike.
Right as he finished, Elder Du attacked, his palm hurtling toward Lin Chang’sheng with lethal force.
A poisonous mist billowed over the palm seal, transforming in an instant into a jet-black green skull, howling as it tore toward Lin Chang’sheng.
Seeing such a brutal strike incoming, Lin Chang’sheng could tell this venom was unusual—take that hit, and he’d be devoured by poison for sure.
"Courting death!"
Lin Chang’sheng summoned the Holy Soul Banner and gave a flick of his hand, drawing Elder Du straight into an illusion array.
This scene made Xu Tiancang and the Fire Elder cry out in shock on the spot.
What kind of Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure was that, with such terrifying power?
To instantly pull a Tribulation Crossing expert inside?
"You—what did you do to the Poison Tributor? Where did he go?"
Guo Yunchu stared at Lin Chang’sheng, horror-struck. Had a Tribulation Crossing expert just been snuffed out by Lin Chang’sheng? Vanished without a trace?
"If you’re not afraid to die, why don’t you both come at me next?"
Lin Chang’sheng looked at Xu Tiancang and the Fire Elder, completely fearless.
That aura alone was enough to rattle the both of them.
"That’s a Demon Dao Soul Banner. So, you really are an evil cultivator?"
Xu Tiancang stared at the Myriad Soul Banner in Lin Chang’sheng’s hands, his heart pounding in disbelief.
The rumors about Lin Chang’sheng being an evil cultivator... turned out they were real.
"E-evil cultivator?"
When Guo Yunchu heard Xu Tiancang’s words, she unconsciously took two steps back. What kind of monster was Lin Chang’sheng, anyway? He even had a Demon Dao Soul Banner?
