Chapter 1189 Arouse Disturbance
Pu!
The silver battle ax flashed and blood splattered.
A severed arm hurled across the air.
Li Shangshui shrieked in pain and frantically drew back, his face deathly pale.
Covered in blood, he looked up at Lin Xun in disbelief, as if he was staring at a monster, and all his hair stood on end.
“You…who the hell are you?”
All sorts of emotions tumbled violently in Li Shangshui’s heart. He was also a supreme king but he was completely overpowered.
Meng Yinghua and the others suddenly thought of Wen Aohai who had died. His face was similarly twisted with disbelief and reluctant acceptance before his death.
Shua!
Lin Xun did not respond. With a flash, the silver battle ax flew upwards again, leaving a long thousand-foot dazzling silver trail of light.
“I concede!” Li Shangshui screamed strangely and gave up unwaveringly.
Buzz!
The strong wind was like a blade, whipping up his hair to show that the razor-sharp ax was just mere inches from his forehead.
Li Shangshui broke out in cold sweat and his whole body went stiff.
Undoubtedly, if he conceded a second later, he would have definitely been spliced by his own battle ax!
On the ground, the Yin Fire Sect disciples were already horror-stricken.
“Why are you afraid of death now?” Lin Xun gave a faint smile.
Li Shangshui swallowed hard and said in a pained voice, “Your Excellency is unparalleled in battle, but I failed to recognize that.”
Swoosh!
Lin Xun turned his hand over and returned the silver battle ax to him. “He who does not know is not guilty. I will let you off this time.”
Li Shangshui stared at him, stunned as if he never imagined Lin Xun to be so easy to talk to. It took him a good while to react.
He couldn’t stop his face reddening with shame and he bowed respectfully. “Thank you for being so gracious. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely return the favor.”
His voice was sonorous.
When Meng Yinghua and the others saw this, they felt complex emotions surge through them. They might be frightened of Lin Xun, but at this moment, their expressions lurked a tinge of respect and admiration.
Everyone said that Demon God Lin was wild, unscrupulous and ruthless.
But only those who truly understood him knew that he always had a clear distinction between hatred and kindness. He only killed those who deserved to be killed and was not a heartless murderer who killed innocent people indiscriminately.
Wen Aohai was dead, but Meng Yinghua and the others were still alive. This was the best proof of this!
Even though they were enemies, Meng Yinghua and the others had to admit that Demon God Lin had a unique charm; no one could criticize his character and morals.
The Yin Fire Sect disciples all heaved a sigh of relief. They were extremely glad that Li Shangshui was not killed.
“There is no need to repay me. If you don’t mind, you all can stay on Star Catcher Mountain,” said Lin Xun casually.
Li Shangshui trembled and his expression changed drastically. “What do you mean by that?”
Knowing the other party had misunderstood, Lin Xun couldn’t help chuckling. “If I wanted to kill you, would I need to use this little trick?”
Li Shangshui stuttered, “Then...”
“I can’t stay in Star Catcher Mountain forever. If you want, you can choose to stay here, set up residence and train,” stated Lin Xun.
Would something so good happen?
Li Shangshui and other Yin Fire Sect experts widened their eyes. They almost couldn’t believe their ears.
“Of course, I can’t let you live in this blessed cultivation land for free. There are Ruyi Divine Gold Ores in the mountains. You must provide me with five kilograms of it every day,” demanded Lin Xun.
But Li Shangshui and the others instead felt a lot more at ease to hear that. This was right. If Lin Xun didn’t ask for anything in return, they would be more suspicious.
“Thank you!”
Li Shangshui once again bowed to express his heartfelt gratitude.
The Yin Fire Sect had yet to find a place to settle down, so the disciples were overjoyed to know that they could reside on Star Catcher Mountain from now on.
“By the way, may I ask for your name?” Li Shangshui asked cautiously.
“Lin Xun.” After stating his name, Lin Xun turned around and returned to the stone hut.
He was on the verge of a breakthrough with the Dao Fire power. If everything went as planned, he would grasp Fire Dao Laws as early as tomorrow!
“Lin Xun…you…are Demon God Lin!” Li Shangshui was flabbergasted.
The other Yin Fire Sect disciples also gasped.
Only after a long moment did they recover from the shock and sigh to themselves. We lost to Demon God Lin...I can accept that...
From that day on, the Yin Fire Sect joined the Star Catcher Mountain.
Meng Yinghua and others did not object. On the contrary, it was much safer to have both Lin Xun and Li Shangshui, two supreme kings, watching over the mountains. It was a happy occasion for all!
They finally had a base and somewhere to retreat to: a blessed cultivation land!
The Yin Fire Sect disciples occasionally left to explore other areas for treasures and opportunities.
Meng Yinghua and the others were also tempted to join them and soon they mixed in with the Yin Fire Sect and worked together.
Lin Xun did not stop them. As long as they promised to hand over the agreed amount of Ruyi Divine Gold every day, he couldn't care less about other matters.
Time flew by.
The Mythic Fire Realm became increasingly turbulent with bloody conflicts frequently erupting. Some clashed over blessed cultivation land and mountains, while others over treasures and fortunes.
There were countless sects and clans. The weaker ones were annexed, while the stronger grew more powerful.
Duels between supreme kings also broke out, and there were reports of supreme kings falling.
In short, the Mythic Fire Realm was in chaos and bloodshed happened every day.
Inevitably, Star Catcher Mountain was also affected.
Some large forces that had yet to find a dwelling, one after another, eyed the Star Catcher Mountain, just like the disciples of the Yin Fire Sect did.
However, with Lin Xun in charge and Li Shangshui assisting him, Star Catcher Mountain remained to be captured despite repeated attacks.
On the contrary, the attackers were all battered, bruised and suffered heavy losses.
Some fled in despair while others were wiped out.
During this period, more than five supreme kings died in the hands of Lin Xun!
Similarly, some forces, like the Yin Fire Sect, chose to submit to Star Catcher Mountain, but the treatment they received was somewhat worse than that of the Yin Fire Sect.
This was because the Yin Fire Sect had done particularly well during this period. They might not have performed deeds of valor, but at least they played an important role in defending Star Catcher Mountain.
They were on the same boat as Lin Xun, so how would he treat them badly?
As for the newly joined forces, Lin Xun knew that they just wanted to find a strong backer. They expected him to hold up the sky even if it fell.
In terms of loyalty, they could not compare to the Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain or Yin Fire Sect.
But Lin Xun did not bother to care as they were all using each other.
They regarded him as a huge umbrella that shielded them from any storm, while he benefited from the divine herbs and king herbs they collected for him every day.
Soon, Star Catcher Mountain had accumulated so many forces and became so powerful that ordinary forces no longer dared to come and violate them.
Moreover, after several battles, the news that Lin Xun was stationed in Star Catcher Mountain started to spread throughout the Mythic Fire Realm and caused quite a stir.
……
“Who would have thought that Demon God Lin would silently ascend to the supreme king stage without anyone knowing?!”
“Back in the Burning Immortal World, he already dominated a city and massacred many major forces. Now, he had killed several supreme kings. His ruthlessness gives me chills.”
“Fortunately, the demon god has only been lingering on Star Catcher Mountain and has not done anything. Otherwise, the Mythic Fire Realm would be much more turbulent!”
Similar discussions happened in different areas of the Mythic Fire Realm.
Anyone who asked around a little would learn about Lin Xun’s various feats and deeds since entering the Mythic Fire Realm.
Flying Star Mountain.
One of the famous great blessed cultivation lands in the Mythic Fire Realm.
As early as when the Upper Nine Realms opened up, Flying Star Mountain was occupied by the Golden Crow Clan and no force had been able to shake them.
“Ninth prince, Demon God Lin has shown up!”
On this day, a piece of news spread to Flying Star Mountain and reached the ear of Wu Lingfeng, the ninth prince of the Golden Crow Clan who was meditating.
“He finally appeared…”
Golden flames flickered frighteningly in Wu Lingfeng’s eyes.
However, after he learned about everything that Lin Xun had done on Star Catcher Mountain, his face darkened and he fell silent.
Demon God Lin has become a supreme king?
This was something he never expected.
Originally, he planned to get rid of Lin Xun before he made a breakthrough, but the situation has changed now.
In particular, when he heard that Wen Aohai was killed by Lin Xun, Wu Lingfeng felt an indescribable surge of anger and hatred boiling up inside of him.
According to the plan, in three days, he, Wen Aohai and other supreme kings would travel to the Underworld River Forbidden Land to search for a heaven-defying fortune.
Who would have thought that Wen Aohai would be dead?
“Ninth Prince, the fellow cultivator from the Sea Soul Clan, Mysterious Metropolis Sect, Moon Worshiper Sect and other forces have come to discuss some important matters with you,” someone came over to report.
“I’ll come in a minute.”
A strange light flashed across Wu Lingfeng’s eyes and then he stood up and walked out of his training space in large strides.
A glorious golden building was perched halfway up the mountain.
In the main hall, several men and women stood waiting, each exuding powerful king aura that induced terror in people.
They were the supreme kings from different major forces.
“Everyone, Demon God Lin has appeared!” Wu Lingfeng announced as soon as he stepped into the hall.
To his surprise, not one person was alarmed. They just nodded. “This is why we are here.”
Instantly, Wu Lingfeng realized that the appearance of Demon God Lin had made all the powerful forces feel uneasy.
Their visit was only to discuss the matter of dealing with Demon God Lin!
Sure enough, the next moment everyone tried to get a word in.
“I don’t know what kind of remarkable fortune that little bastard has obtained, but he has soared to the supreme king stage and killed several supreme kings.”
“You all know that he is ruthless and vengeful. He definitely will retaliate. If we don’t do anything now, he likely will take us down one by one.”
“We all came here to discuss how to deal with that kid!”
Wu Lingfeng’s eyes flashed as he quietly listened.
After a long moment, he took a deep breath and his gaze turned cold and determined. “Fine, it’s not too late for us to head to the Underworld River Forbidden Land after we get rid of Demon God Lin!”
Everyone nodded, heaving a sigh of relief in their hearts.
The fact that Demon God Lin has become a supreme king was already terrifying enough.
But now, they had been reliably informed that several supreme kings had died in his hands over a short period.
Who would not be on guard and afraid?
As a result, they came to find Wu Lingfeng to assemble a group of kings to eliminate Lin Xun together!
