Chapter 3070 Great Dao Fate Lotus
Watching Lin Xun walking out of the altar, silence took over the area. Those figures hidden in the mist were all caught off guard, not expecting that he would be so calm and fearless. Especially, the fact that he declared battle forced them to take it seriously.
As the saying went, only dragons among people dared cross a turbulent sea. Lin Xun’s seemingly calm but in reality tough attitude deterred them from lightly making a move. The tall and burly man a thousand feet away from him also frowned. The flickering look in his eyes betrayed the uncertainty in his heart.
When Lin Xun saw their reaction, the corners of his lips curled up. These people were very cautious, he had to give them that, but it was precisely thanks to such caution that the situation would not escalate to the point of no return for them.
“Old Yin, why don't you test our new friend out?” the aged voice echoed.
The tall man called Old Yin nodded and hurled out something from his hand.
Whoosh~
Suddenly, a layer of glittering purple radiance covered the area like a bug canopy. It was a complete Divine Rank law. Seeing this, Lin Xun mused, “So you're worried that the commotion from the fight might draw unwanted attention.”
There was no panic, no anxiety in his voice. His calm and poised bearing made it even harder for the figures in the shadows to gauge him.
Before the battle started, the cold female voice rang out again, “Old Yin, we have no past grievances with this daoist friend, so don't go overboard.”
“Alright.” The tall figure agreed.
“Do you agree as well, Fellow Daoist?” the cold female voice asked Lin Xun.
“Sure,” Lin Xun casually said.
“Here I come.”
The tall figure inhaled a deep breath. Golden Eternal light steamed from his mountain-like figure, and his might skyrocketed. Such an aura was slightly superior to that of Gaoyang Huai and Jiang Tao, who had also been at the peak of the Creation Realm!
“Rise!”
He let out a thunderous bellow, and then in front of him, a golden flaming river surged out from thin air and swiftly morphed into a golden sword. Although this sword was only two feet long, the intent it released was as lofty and heavy as an ancient mountain, seemingly capable of suppressing heaven and earth.
Golden Flame Suppressor Sword!
The figures in the shadows were greatly reassured at the sight of this weapon. It was condensed by Old Yin’s supreme divine ability and was the manifestation of his strongest combat power. A single strike could pressure a big world and crush small planets!
From this, one could see that Old Yin truly regarded his opponent as a dragon among people and refused to show a hint of carelessness.
“Go!”
With eyes as intimidating as lightning, he waved his hand. The whole field started quaking as the golden sword slashed across the sky.
Swish!
The sword intent churned endlessly like golden flames burning the nine heavens. Even in the entire peak Creation Realm, this strike could be considered top-tier in terms of power. However, Lin Xun stood in place, merely raising his palm and struck out. BANG!
A loud pop resounded, and the sky-blotting golden flames chaotically dispersed. The tall man’s golden dao sword was shattered by the casual palm strike!
“What...?” The pupils of the figures in the shadows shrank as their minds received a heavy blow.
Meanwhile, Lin Xun vanished. The tall figure was also in shock that his most powerful attack had been slapped into oblivion so casually. Upon seeing Lin Xun coming at him, he didn't dare to react slowly and rushed to use his trump card.
“Doh!”
As he chanted, the dark red armor covering him from head to toe erupted with dazzling glow. An obscure flame totem coalesced in the air, splitting into thirty-six defensive seals that contained overwhelmingly powerful law power.
Almost at the same time, Lin Xun had already slammed down his fist from above like a god swinging down his hammer at the mortal world. Bang bang bang!
A series of dense collisions broke out. Visible to the naked eye, the heavy defensive seals burst like fragile glass into a storm of light. Finally, with an earth-shattering explosion, that same punch sent the magnificent man flying. He heavily hit the ground ten thousand feet away, kicking up a cloud of dust.
“Old Yin!”
“How...”
“So strong!”
In a series of exclamations, one figure after another swept out from the mist all around and rushed to check their associate.
“I lost...” The tall man climbed to his feet with lingering fear on his face, while his voice was filled with dismay and bitterness.
Upon seeing that he was fine, the others unanimously let out a sigh of relief. Next, they turned to Lin Xun, now with apprehension in the way they looked at him. This unfamiliar young man was indeed a fierce dragon! The tall man was in the top two in their camp regarding combat strength, but he had failed to even block one blow, so one could imagine how powerful the opponent was.
At the same time, Lin Xun finally saw the appearances of the three figures who had revealed themselves from the mist: two men and one woman.
One of the men was the one who had been sitting on the hill. He wore a white robe and a high coronet, and looked like a handsome teenager. The other was a senile-looking old man who carried a huge black sword box on his thin, hunched back. The woman was dressed entirely in black. She had a tall and slender frame, and a fair, beautiful face. Like the tall man, the three of them were also at the peak of the Creation Realm.
In the current Eternal True Realm, one wouldn't be able to see a single expert at their level. Even in the Fortune Dominion, only the top ten divine clans had characters of such caliber in their ranks, but the majority of those had been wiped out by Lin Xun. Therefore, the fact that Lin Xun saw four as soon as he arrived at the Sea of Fate made him put his guard up.
Still, this situation was within his prediction. After all, this was the Sea of Fate, the forbidden zone where the old monsters of both the twelve Eternal Divine Clans in the Ninth Heaven Domain and the Four Great Ancestral Courts had practically run to, all in order to seek the sliver of opportunity to go to the All-Wonder Dominion.
As such, the Sea of Fate had become a treacherous area where Eternals gathered!
“You are very strong, Fellow Daoist. We were blind to offend you.” In the distance, the black-clad woman cupped her fist. “We will not obstruct you anymore.”
At the same time she said this, the tall man waved his hand and retracted the Divine Rank law power covering the region.
However, Lin Xun had no intention of leaving. “Since you have admitted defeat, can we have a proper conversation now?”
He had many questions that needed answers. Instead of venturing out aimlessly, it was wiser to take this opportunity to get information from the other party.
The black-clad woman and company exchanged glances and did not refuse his request.
“Truth be told, the four of us have only been walking around the outer fringes of this Spirit Martial World all these years. While we know quite a few things, they're only a portion of the big picture,” the black-clad woman said softly.
“That’s fine.” Lin Xun said, “I just need to know the general situation of the Sea of Fate.”
The black-clad woman took out a jade slip and tossed it to him. “It’s all recorded in this jade slip.”
Lin Xun caught the jade slip and accessed the information within. The Sea of Fate was created from the origin power of the Kunlun Dominion. It would appear in the Nameless Forbidden Zone in every period preceding an epochal calamity, and only during this time could Eternal cultivators fight for a ticket to the All-Wonder Dominion.
The Sea of Fate covered an extremely large area. Since many epochs ago, countless Eternal experts had converged here. The fascinating part was that Eternals from different epochs would appear in different spatial planes after entering the Sea of Fate.
For example, Lin Xun was currently in a plane that was newly created in this epoch. All Eternals from this epoch would be placed in this plane, which was thus called the Spirit Martial World. According to the records in the jade slip, there were many other dimensional worlds under the Sea of Fate, all of which were created in the previous epochs.
One could compare the Nameless Forbidden Zone to a lotus flower, where the dimensional worlds created every epoch were the petals. The Sea of Fate was stretched across this lotus. Such was the structure of the Nameless Forbidden Zone.
The Spirit Martial World was divided into a central zone and a peripheral zone. The central zone was the one closest to the Sea of Fate, so there lay the highest hope to win that slim opportunity to go to the All-Wonder Dominion.
Nowadays, the central zone was occupied and controlled by major forces, such as the twelve Eternal Divine Clans and the Four Great Ancestral Courts.
On the other hand, the peripheral zone had seen scattered characters getting settled in, all of whom with heritage and battle prowess inferior to the big names from the big forces. The black-clad woman and her group were an example, and they could only walk around the peripheral zone of the Spirit Martial World.
The jade slip also recorded some details, such as how the central zone was the place where all the daos of the Spirit Martial World originated from. Even Eternals could reap immeasurable benefits when they cultivated there.
Such as every once in a while, a phenomenon resembling a great tide would suddenly wash through the Sea of Fate, and then, a Great Dao Fate Lotus would emerge, in which hid the ticket to the All-Wonder Dominion!
A Great Dao Fate Lotus could only hold three Eternal cultivators, carrying them across the Sea of Fate towards the location of the All-Wonder Dominion. Therefore, one could already imagine the bloodshed it would cause when this lotus appeared!
According to the jade slip, this phenomenon had erupted three times so far, meaning there had been a total of three Great Dao Fate Lotuses.
Unfortunately, these opportunities to travel to the All-Wonder Dominion had all been claimed away by terrifying existences from other epochs. No one in the entire Spirit Martial World had emerged victorious in the competition.
After reading all of this, Lin Xun finally got the gist. So, it turned out that the opportunity to go to the All-Wonder Dominion lay in the Great Dao Fate Lotus that was born in the Sea of Fate!
