Chapter 1210 Impermanence of Life and Death
Lin Xun flicked his wrist and hurled the broken spear towards Wu Lingdao.
Bang!
In Wu Lingdao’s haste to block the spear, he let Lin Xun, who was already speeding forward, to slam a punch squarely into his chest.
Even though he drew upon all his defense power, he still violently coughed up blood and turned pale.
Everyone inhaled sharply.
The power of Demon God Lin stunned them into silence and sent their spirits trembling. They found it hard to believe that he would be so strong in combat.
The defeat of Wu Lingdao induced chills in them.
Anyone knew that Wu Lingdao was frighteningly powerful, more so than Wu Shanlin, yet he was still overpowered by Demon God Lin. How would that not be chilling?
However, Lin Xun, who was about to follow up with another strike, suddenly halted and narrowed his black eyes.
Wu Lingdao erupted with a mighty power that surged into the sky, and he was bathed entirely in golden light.
As he breathed in, the space started to whimper and the airflow raged endlessly.
A divine halo-like ring floated up from behind his head, projecting phenomena of golden crows spreading their wings, hovering in the sky, and bathing in flames. An earthshaking power filled the entire area!
“The Longevity Phenomenon! He...passed the first longevity tribulation!” Zhen Yunfeng exclaimed in astonishment.
Everyone else widened their eyes.
Once one embarked on the Longevity Path and passed the first longevity tribulation, the Dao Seed within their body would extend its roots, and the essence, qi, and energy of one’s body would condense into the appearance of a phenomenon that watched over the spirit.
Within the phenomenon, it could be inscribed with the secret of a matching Longevity Dao Arts which could unleash unimaginable power in battle.
This was the mark of a Longevity Tribulation King!
Ordinary longevity tribulation experts were common in the outside world.
But in the Supreme Realm, only very few supreme kings had passed the first longevity tribulation!
After all, it had only been less than two years since the group of cultivators came to the Supreme Realm. It was already extremely amazing for them to be able to set foot into the Supreme King Stage in such a short period.
Thus, supreme kings who passed the longevity tribulation were even rarer!
Everyone’s gaze changed when they looked at Wu Lingdao.
Undoubtedly, in the pursuit of the Supreme Path, Wu Lingdao had taken a huge step ahead of them and reached a much higher level!
“Originally, I planned to use this cultivation level as a trump card to deal with people like Chi Lingxiao, Holy Maiden Lin Xue, and Yun Qingbai.”
Wu Lingdao’s bearing was as mighty as the sea, enveloping the universe, and his voice turned cold and ruthless. “I have to admit that you are considered one of the best if you can force me to resort to it. Unfortunately, you still have to die!”
The word ‘die’ was loaded with terrifying murderous intent, inducing fear in everyone.
Under those circumstances, how could Lin Xun fight?
The supreme king stage was already regarded as abnormal, but now, it turned out that Wu Lingdao had passed the first longevity tribulation and his cultivation had undergone earth-shaking changes.
What does Demon God Lin have to contend with him?
“You are still at the king stage. Just because you survived a longevity tribulation, do you think you can do anything you want?” Lin Xun’s expression remained calm and free of ripples.
He was indeed surprised to learn that Wu Lingdao had passed the first longevity tribulation, but he was far from afraid.
As early as when he was at the five great cultivation stages, he had already slaughtered enemies of higher cultivation levels than him. Now that he had become a Supreme King and blazed his own dao path, acquiring an invisible self confidence, how would he be afraid?
It could be said that ever since he reached the Supreme King Stage, no one person of his generation had ever been able to force him to bring out his real strength!
Not even Wu Lingdao!
Lin Xun was curious to see how capable Wu Lingdao would be given that he was one level above him.
“You have a death wish!” Amid a bone-chilling voice, Wu Lingdao strode across the air, a divine ring hovering behind his head.
The Golden Crow Phenomenon exuded immeasurable majesty, shocking the entire audience.
“Slash!”
A golden crow wing suddenly took shape behind him like a dazzling blade that could cut the sky.
Suddenly, it slashed downwards.
Boom!
Lin Xun first activated the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art to stave off the crow wing, only to stagger and reel back from the force.
Zhen Yunfeng’s and the others’ expressions suddenly changed, and their hearts tensed up.
Even Mo Tianhe, who had feuded with Lin Xun in the past, couldn’t help but hold his breath and scrunch his brows with concern.
“Slash!”
Wu Lingdao charged forward like a golden crow about to engulf the sun, while the golden crow wing cut through the sky with an unstoppable force.
This time, Lin Xun activated the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations. Nine golden tribulations characters surrounded him, but were also quickly destroyed.
The golden crow wing brushed past and slashed a bone-deep wound into his shoulder.
“Nice!”
On the battleship, a roar of cheers erupted like thunder. All the young men and women were ecstatic to see Lin Xun wounded by Wu Lingdao.
This was an advantage of being at a higher cultivation level. Even a False King was strong enough to look down on cultivators of the five great cultivation stages.
Let alone the fact that Wu Lingdao was a supreme king who had set foot onto the longevity path!
“Slash!” Wu Lingdao bellowed, his power growing stronger and stronger. A phenomenon flared up with blazing golden flames and it brandished a golden crow wing like a heavenly blade.
It looked conceited with an ice-cold expression of superior attitude.
Bang!
Lin Xun was blasted away once again, blood trickling down his lips.
Zhen Yunfeng and the others frowned with worry. They looked at one another secretly and passed on a message. If the situation turns precarious, we should all take action and escape this place with Lin Xun.
As though aware of the plan of Zhen Yunfeng and the others, the group of young men and women on the battleship fixed their gazes on them.
If Zhen Yunfeng and the others took action, they would definitely encounter obstructions from them.
“Lin Xun, just peacefully accept your death. No one can save you this time.” Wu Lingdao’s voice was cold and cruel. “And when you die, I can use your skull to drink your blood!”
Boom!
As he spoke, the golden crow wing lifted up like a blade slashing the sky.
But at the same time, Lin Xun, who was heavily injured, raised his head and a cold light flashed in his black eyes. “I thought you would be amazing, but it turns out that you’re not that impressive!”
Clang!
Almost at the same time, the Broken Blade flew out from him, as pure white as an illusion.
Silent Emptiness Slash!
Yazi’s Rage, Sacred Combat Art, and the Water Dao Law were all combined into the blade slash, creating an unprecedented power!
Time, space, and air seemed to have frozen, and everything fell silent. Only a sharp blade existed.
With a crash, the golden crow wing speeding downward was torn into a rain of light and instantly dissipated.
In the distance, Wu Lingdao’s pupils shrank. He flung his hand, and with a bang, blasted away the Broken Blade, but it left a bloody scar in the palm of his hand.
He couldn’t believe he would be in burning pain. Am I actually wounded?
On the treasure ship, the cheers abruptly ceased, and all the men and women dropped their jaws. How...how did he turn it around again?
Zhen Yunfeng and the others were equally dumbstruck. They were all ready to rush out to rescue Lin Xun, but the result was completely beyond their expectations!
Buzz!
The Broken Blade circled Lin Xun, casting a dreamy brilliance over him that amplified his austere and ethereal aura.
Moreover, the injuries all over him were visibly healing at an astonishing speed—a wonderful effect of the power of the Immortality Grand Dao.
“Slash!”
As though he didn’t believe it, Wu Lingdao came charging over again with a darkened face.
The dazzling golden crow wing swept across, incinerating everything it touched. Its fierce and sharp aura terrified many people even from a very far distance away.
“Slash!”
Lin Xun also launched his killing move.
Impermanence Slash!
This strike was nothing but fast, determining life and death in a twinkling.
Chi!
A long and narrow bloody scar was left in Wu Lingdao’s chest. His skin and flesh were badly torn, and blood was flowing wildly out the gash.
Bang!
Almost at the same time, the golden crow wing came within less than a foot away from Lin Xun, only for it to be split into two perfect halves!
Lin Xun stood motionlessly, showing no intention of evading.
It looked strange and unbelievable, but in fact, the Impermanence Slash had first struck the golden crow wings before it wounded Wu Lingdao.
It was the incredible speed that led to the illusion.
Everyone’s eyes were wide with shocked disbelief as if they had been struck by lightning. It was hard to imagine how Lin Xun could counterattack like that when he was an entire cultivation level below Wu Lingdao!
He’s a monster!
To Zhen Yunfeng and the others, Lin Xun’s abnormal performance could not be assessed with conventional measurements.
“Argh!” Wu Lingdao roared, face livid and eyes about to burst with flames.
In the past, he was always the one who killed experts of higher cultivation levels, but now, it was his turn to be wounded by someone below him. This was hard for him to accept!
Boom!
He sped through the air while two golden-black wings took shape behind him like a pair of scissors to kill Lin Xun once and for all.
It was an ultimate killing move that pushed his power to its limit!
Other supreme king experts likely would be obliterated without even the chance to fight back.
Lin Xun’s robe and black hair billowed in the breeze. His injuries had completely healed and he had been restored to perfect condition. Faced with this blow, he unwaveringly countered with the Impermanence Slash.
Impermanence signified no definite form, just like that of the uncertain great dao!
As early as when Lin Xun was at the Cyclic Derivation Stage, the Impermanence Slash was already his trump card.
This was the first time he used it after setting foot into the Supreme King Stage.
“Why is he not moving?” Mo Tianhe cried out.
Everyone else also panicked, equally baffled.
But the next second, they understood the reason!
Pu!
Silently, Wu Lingdao’s head separated from his body.
Strangely, he seemed completely unaware as his face was still skewed with ruthlessness and anger...
It wasn’t until a chorus of astonished exclamations rang out that he realized something was wrong and looked down. To his horror, his body was missing!
“Th…”
His eyes bulged, filled with shock and bewilderment, and the brightness in them started to fade.
Then, his consciousness blurred, his vision darkened, and he completely lost all senses.
Even before death, he could not understand how he was beheaded!
That was the Impermanence Slash!
Once uncertainty came, if unnoticed, it would decide life and death in an instant.
Boom!
Following the death of Wu Lingdao, his pair of golden crow wings barely reached Lin Xun when they collapsed and vanished without a trace.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Xun never moved an inch.
Everyone finally understood that Lin Xun did not need to dodge the blow because Wu Lingdao had already met with misfortune!
However, when they thought about Wu Lingdao’s bizarre death, everyone still shuddered like they had fallen into an ice cave!
