Chapter 1208 Purple Mountain Plate
A supreme king and a supreme king were peers of the same cultivation level.
In a duel between peers, rarely could a winner be decided so quickly.
But the white-robed man failed to withstand a single strike!
The way that Lin Xun killed him was no different from slaughtering a chicken—clean, quick and precise. Everyone stared, aghast at the scene.
Blood sputtered everywhere, staining the sky a gruesome red shade.
Did a supreme king die just like that?
In the deathly silence, everyone fell into a trance-like state.
As supreme kings, they understood better than anyone else how amazing it was for Lin Xun to achieve that!
Meanwhile, Zhen Yunfeng, Mo Tianhe and the others wondered. Could Jin Duyi indeed be a real descendant of the pure-blood True Dragon Clan?
Otherwise, why would he be so abnormally strong?
And when they thought about how they didn’t trust him to handle the matter alone, an indescribable feeling rushed up their hearts.
As for Wu Shanlin and the others, their first reaction was disbelief!
They even reckoned that the white-robed man was too careless which led to his death. Otherwise, no other reason could explain it.
Funnily, a woman in feathered robes on the ship came to her senses and screamed, “He...he actually killed Fellow Cultivator Gongsun!?”
Her sharp voice pierced the dead silence.
It also jolted everyone awake.
“It’s your turn next.”
Lin Xun did not head to seize the silver Dao Fire, but instead fixed his unfathomable dark eyes on Wu Shanlin who was standing on the bow of the ship.
He would never forget how that guy had treated him just now!
“Seems like you want to die!”
Wu Shanlin’s face darkened, his long hair flew about his face and his eyes swirled with lightning. As he wielded the huge beast bone bow into the air, terrifying blood-red qi raged around his body.
Amidst the rumble of dao light, he glowed brightly, and his clothes whipped around him like he was a divine being.
Da! Da!
Lin Xun strode into the air. With each step he took, the surrounding space collapsed, the layers of clouds began vibrating, and the aura around him rose steadily.
His lone yet majestic figure radiated superiority that could swallow up the entire world.
Wu Shanlin narrowed his eyes, which were as frightening as a razor sharp lightning, as he pulled the huge beast bone bow across the strings.
This time, he activated all his strength and did not hold back at all.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Divine arrows cut through the air with sonic booms that stung everyone’s eardrums. Each one erupted with light as splendid as a rainbow and projected all sorts of terrifying visions.
The concentrated rain of arrows poured down. Ji Xingyao, Zhen Yunfeng and the others couldn’t stop their expressions from altering.
Unquestionably, Wu Shanlin was extremely powerful. As an ancient-era eccentric genius from the Overturning Sky Buffalo Clan and also a supreme king, his powers understandably trumped those of his peers.
“Brother Wu, you must kill him and avenge Fellow Cultivator Gongsun!”
Those on the boat clamored and cheered for Wu Shanlin.
To everyone’s surprise, in the face of the overpowering killing attack, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged and he stepped forward to meet the attack head-on.
Bang!
The first divine arrow shot through the air towards him, but it came to an abrupt stop just mere inches away from him, as though it was stuck in a quagmire, buzzing and wailing.
Then, with a flick of his finger, the arrow exploded into a shower of light. His movements were gentle and casual and not showy at all!
“He…”
Everyone gasped, eyes bulging wide open. “How did he do that?”
Based on the power of that arrow, it could pierce through rocks, shatter gold, and send any supreme king into a panic. But now, it seemed unusually weak!
How could they not be stricken with horror?!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another dense shower of arrows rained down, but each one sharply slowed to a stop as it neared Lin Xun like they were also caught in a quagmire.
With a snap of his fingers, Lin Xun shattered them one by one. It was as though he was only dusting his clothes to brush away some little bugs.
At the same time, he never paused his steps once, climbing higher and higher into the air. At this moment, he was not far from the battleship.
Wu Shanlin’s face clouded over as he watched on. Then, he suddenly clenched his teeth and gave up on his bow, replacing it with the Heaven Scorcher Halberd. With a flash, he leapt off the ship and charged at Lin Xun.
Boom!
The halberd sprang up, slashing across the air and setting off a mass of monstrous red clouds.
The treasure was inscribed with various unusual dao runes, which was indicative of its extraordinary origin and earthshaking power.
At the same time, the imposing aura of Lin Xun, who was still moving forward, had condensed to its strongest level, and he suddenly advanced at headlong speed.
Swoosh!
He vanished from the spot like a streak of light.
Wu Shanlin’s pupils suddenly shrank. Lin Xun was so fast that he lost track of him.
In his field of vision, he saw nothing but a dazzling fist rapidly expanding while speeding his way!
Clang!
The Heaven Scorcher Halberd collided with Lin Xun’s mighty fist with a deafening explosion, sending terrifying shockwaves across and plunging the area into chaos.
Pu!
With one blow, Wu Shanlin’s qi and blood pulsed frantically throughout him as he coughed up blood.
He was horrified, feeling as if he was struck by a mighty mountain; his muscles and bones showed signs of collapsing.
But he had no time to deal with his injuries. With a hysterical roar, he swung the halberd and fought with all his strength like his life depended on it.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In just a few breaths, the two had already exchanged blows hundreds of times. Lin Xun’s concentrated punches all struck squarely at the giant halberd, causing it to whimper and wail tragically.
Wu Shanlin trembled violently, face flushing red and blood streaming down his arms and hands. He repeatedly staggered backwards, unable to fend off the fierce attacks.
Everyone felt the collisions ringing in their eyes like a demonic spell. Their qi and blood scrambled around them and their faces blanched with horror.
The battle hadn’t started for long, but Wu Shanlin was already completely suppressed!
Before this, he had acted domineering and arrogant, regarding Lin Xun as his prey as soon as they met. He even picked his ear from time to time to show his disdain.
But now, Lin Xun had utterly crushed him!
His horrendous state and the sight of him coughing up blood sent chills down everyone’s spine.
“He…who is he?!”
On the ship, the men and women all halted their cheering, finally realizing that they had run into trouble.
Zhen Yunfeng and the others also wanted to ask the same question. The power and ability that Lin Xun demonstrated also surprised them.
In mid-air, dao light flared around Lin Xun as though he was a demon god coming onto the world. His fists, swathed in Dao Law power, erupted with rays of terrifying light.
Rumble!
It was that blow that made Wu Shanlin give up on resisting. With a loud scream, the Heaven Scorcher Halberd flew out of his grip, and he was left with shattered armor as he plunged from the sky.
But before he landed, Lin Xun sped towards him.
This is bad!
On the battleship, the men and women all turned ashen-faced, realizing that Wu Shanlin was about to meet with calamity.
However, before they could come to his rescue, Lin Xun slammed one foot onto Wu Shanlin and exerted force to the sole.
Bang!
Wu Shanlin smashed down at a frighteningly faster speed and blasted a giant pit into the ground. He had to have broken countless bones from a fall of that height and speed.
He shrieked in agony, utterly terrified.
He never imagined that the guy he regarded as his prey would turn out to be such a strong and fierce character.
Everyone else was stupefied. Wu Shanlin was an ancient-era eccentric genius of the Overturning Sky Buffalo Clan and was known to possess combat power superior to that of the average supreme king.
But he was utterly crushed!
Meanwhile, Lin Xun scrunched his brows. Given the power of that kick, it should be enough to pulverize a mountain, but Wu Shanlin is only wounded and not killed.
Shua!
He lashed out with a brutal right foot kick in mid-air.
“Stop!”
The men and women on the ship roared violently, but they were blocked by Zhen Yunfeng and the others, who were staring at them expressionlessly.
Zhen Yunfeng and the others were already filled with pent up anger. How would they let those people encircle Lin Xun again?
Boom!
Wu Shanlin jerked out of the pit, trying to dodge and retreat.
But it was futile. Lin Xun stomped on him once again and pressed him to the ground.
“AH—!”
He bellowed with rage and pain, his eyes about to burst. He felt an indescribable shame and humiliation from being trampled by his peer that made him go berserk.
Buzz!
A strange wave of energy suddenly surged from his chest and a wave of a magnificent purple light circulated him, which helped him struggle free from Lin Xun’s foot.
“You deserve to die!”
Wu Shanlin looked up to the sky and thundered like a crazy demon, his hair whipping wildly around his face and his burly body producing torrents of blood-red light.
At his chest, purple light swirled mysteriously. It turned out to be a special ancient protective plate. Although it was not a Saint treasure, it was surrounded in an extremely mysterious aura.
Lin Xun failed to kill Wu Shanlin because of the chest plate.
“The Purple Mountain Plate!” someone cried out on the battleship.
“No wonder! That’s the rare treasure that Fellow Cultivator Wu obtained not long ago. It can help him escape three life and death situations,” someone exclaimed enviously.
“Three times?” Lin Xun hovered in mid-air, his black hair fluttering as he glowed with a beautiful dao light like a divine being gracing the earth with his presence.
Everyone’s hearts sank when they heard that.
Shua!
Lin Xun launched into action.
The Purple Mountain Place had helped Wu Shanlin twice already. If Lin Xun had the chance to kill his opponent twice, he believed he could kill him another time, or even more…
The furious Wu Shanlin also sensed something bad was happening. Seeing Lin Xun charging towards him, he unwaveringly chose to flee.
At the same time, he screamed, “Wu Lingdao, at this time, do you still not plan on doing anything?”
Boom!
Lin Xun already reached him with unbelievable speed.
A Moment of Spring and Autumn!
As Lin Xun stretched out his finger, it seemed to gather the power of all autumns and springs.
“Stop!”
A deep voice resounded.
Moving at a speed faster than sound was a golden figure coming at Lin Xun.
However, whether it was the voice or the golden figure, compared to Lin Xun’s finger, it was still slower.
Moreover, from the beginning to the end, Lin Xun had no intention of stopping!
Wu Shanlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the golden figure’s voice. I knew Wu Lingdao would not watch me suffer a calamity.
But to his horror, Lin Xun’s attack was coming straight for him without any signs of stopping. Moreover, the power it contained made his breathing feel heavy. He felt a sense of helplessness like it was impossible to escape and impossible to block it.
“No!”
Wu Shanlin roared at the top of his voice, doing everything he could to resist like a trapped beast.
Bang!
The Purple Mountain Plate shattered.
Bang!
Immediately after that, Wu Shanlin exploded.
