Chapter 1257 Earthshaking Battle
Under the attention of countless gazes, Lin Xun walked out the Kongzhe Mountain gate alone.
Experts who had arrived in the past three days became restless. It is indeed Demon God Lin! Does he plan to fight alone?
“Demon God Lin…” Ye Mohe murmured, his eyes sweeping up and down Lin Xun like lightning.
He had heard many rumors about Lin Xun, but this was the first time he saw him in person.
After a brief look, he nodded to himself. He detected an imposing bearing from Lin Xun that could only be honed through long periods of killing, which made him feel they were the same kind of people.
“Long time no see…” Luo Jia spaced out.
She had a pretty good relationship with Lin Xun.
Before she came here, she had already decided that if Lin Xun fell into a bad state, she would not mind going up and angering Underworld Son.
Little Golden Winged Dapeng King burst out laughing, seeming a little disappointed. “I thought he would be a fierce killer with three heads and six arms, but I never thought he would have no sharp edge at all.” He shook his head.
He sensed that Lin Xun had an extraordinary aura, but it was still not as good as he had imagined.
In addition to them, there were a lot of other discussions in the audience.
Everyone was speculating whether Lin Xun showed up alone because he was confident of winning or whether he had no other choice.
“Only you came to find death?”
In mid-air, Underworld Son’s eyes flashed like lightning, and his voice was like ice.
His tall and slender body was surrounded by obscure and cold dao light as he stood there like a god of the underworld, exuding a frightening and intimidating presence.
“Yes, I alone can send you all to find death.”
Lin Xun nodded, his expression calm and indifferent. He stood there with a relaxed and elegant demeanor and without being showy.
This was related to his dao path. When he restrained himself, his body and mind were as solid as a rock, as peaceful as a still lake, and had a transcendent aura.
But once he unleashed himself, he could quake the world like an immortal sword piercing the sky.
“Haha, back then you teamed up with that thieving bird and took me off guard and stole my treasure. I still remember it to this day. Today, it is time for me to put an end to this once and for all!” Underworld Son chuckled, eyes reddening with intense hatred and killing intent. “Once I get rid of you, Kongzhe Mountain will be turned into a wasteland and drowned in blood!”
Lin Xun looked surprised. “Do you have that ability?”
“Lord, please bring out your strongest means to quickly eliminate that beast!”
“How is Demon God Lin, who is a thing of the past, qualified to fight against you? Lord, why don’t you let me handle that kid!”
“Lord, kill him!”
The experts of Underworld clamored with murderous looks on their faces. They had absolute confidence in Underworld Son. In their opinion, Underworld Son was the son of the heavens, and it was only a matter of time before he killed Lin Xun.
On Kongzhe Mountain, Ji Xingyao and the others were all paying close attention to the interaction between Lin Xun and Underworld Son, their faces contorted by worry and nervous tension.
Could Lin Xun do it?
Shua!
As Underworld Son opened his eyes, two beams of eerie blue light burst forth before transforming into a pair of divine blue swords. They crisscrossed in mid-air with the clang of metal and hurtled in the direction of Lin Xun.
Everyone was aghast. The great battle had already broken out.
He created such a terrifying vision by just looking up! The crisscrossing of divine swords sent an astonishingly destructive power permeating the area.
“Underworld Light Eye!” someone exclaimed.
It was an extraordinary innate talent possessed by only the fated geniuses of the world.
Many people knew that Demon God Lin had encountered a truly terrifying opponent this time!
Roar!
The roar of a true dragon seemed to be reverberating in the air, sending everyone’s spirit trembling and their blood and qi tumbling frantically around them.
At Lin Xun’s feet, a Hornless Ice Dragon transformed into a majestic true dragon, soared into the sky and unleashed terrifying dragon might, obliterating the pair of divine swords.
It continued unabated, raging towards Underworld Son!
Bang!
In front of Underworld Son, wisps of obscure cold dao light emerged and condensed into a treasure rock engraved with two words in primitive writing—Three Lives. In the blink of an eye, it destroyed the true dragon coming its way and created an explosion of light.
“Lord, there is no need to hold back, kill him!”
The Underworld experts shouted as if they were on the battlefield and fighting themselves. Both their bodies and minds were completely engrossed and their blood was pulsing in them
The emotions of everyone nearby were also stirred. Holding their breaths, they anxiously watched on.
“You have disappeared for four years yet you are already at the third longevity tribulation stage. It seems like you obtained quite a few fortunes and opportunities. But, in my eyes, that’s not enough!”
Underworld Son circulated his cultivation and soared into the sky like the underworld god launching into attack. Surrounded by a monstrous cold aura, he dove down at Lin Xun with mighty power!
The world fell utterly silent. Everyone closed their mouths, and the noise and buzz in the audience also abruptly faded. All attention was fixed on the battlefield.
Underworld Son struck, displaying his unparalleled divine power. Such bearing made everything in the world look dim, quaking the mountains and valleys in all directions!
On the other side, Lin Xun also launched an attack.
Originally, his aura was ethereal and transcendent, but the moment he moved, it was as though a dormant true dragon was emerging from an abyss. Powerful roars echoed all around him, stirring the power of heaven and earth. The dao light flowing around him was boundless and immeasurable.
Rumble!
The two collided like the sun and the moon meeting in the air, like a god and demon confronting one another. The space within a radius of thousands of feet exploded and collapsed.
Blinding dao light beamed in all directions, and murderous qi raged everywhere, wreaking havoc on everything.
Many experts frantically drew back and felt a stinging sensation in their eyes. The clash was more terrifying than they imagined.
Underworld Son’s eerie cold dao light wreaked havoc upon the world like a purgatory.
Lin Xun’s power was akin to a true dragon emerging from an abyss, roaring proudly across the nine heavens.
The two, one like the god of the underworld and the other like the demon god, continued to exchange blows in the air, each matching the other’s skill. Countless terrifying visions were displayed across the sky amid ceaseless dao sound.
Bang!
After an earth-shattering explosion, the two separated, facing each other on opposite sides, their auras more intense and powerful than it was.
They are evenly matched?
The first round already dazzled the audience and sent their minds shaking.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Following a series of piercing sounds, nine bronze spears appeared behind Underworld Son. They were all simple-looking and mottled with streaks of bright red blood. The aura radiating around them was gray and gloomy and filled with deathly energy.
A glimpse of it from afar was enough to send a tingle down the spine.
Undoubtedly, the set of spears had a remarkable background!
At the same time, nine tribulation symbols sparkled around Lin Xun like they were crafted from divine gold. Lining up orderly, they charged forward with a boom.
Boom!
Spears criss-crossed in the void, dragon power surged, and beams of dao light erupted. Faintly, the asura of hell was wielding a spear and terrifying mythological beasts such as the Hornless Ice Dragon, Bi’an, and Baxia were emerging.
Unsettling sounds echoed like thunder, interrupted by resounding dragon roars.
Visions of mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and torrential rain of blood flickered in the air.
Between the two, all sorts of forces collided, and Law Power rumbled like raging monstrous waves.
“So strong!”
“Is this a true showdown between giants?”
Many people paled, and their spirits quivered. Watching the earthshaking duel from afar was enough to make their hair stand on end as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
If they were swept into it, they likely would be killed instantly!
Top figures such as Little Golden Winged Dapeng King and Ye Mohe also wore serious expressions as they watched intently.
A duel like that, even in the Upper Nine Realms, was rarely seen!
In mid-air, one person was bathed in the ominous light of the underworld, like an underworld god coming out of purgatory, while the other oozed superiority and disdain like a demon god and brought destruction upon the world.
The two collided fiercely, and in the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged hundreds of blows. The intense battle captured the attention of the entire audience!
It had to be admitted that Underworld Son was hair-raisingly powerful, far stronger than four years ago.
But Lin Xun’s fighting prowess also raised eyebrows and amazed countless people.
After disappearing for four years, he was able to hold his own against Underworld Son with only a cultivation level of three longevity tribulations. This was unbelievable.
Every inch of Lin Xun’s skin was spewing out splendid dao light, as though he was a great furnace of chaos blazing fiercely. The destructive power was astonishing.
The two exchanged blows from the sky to the ground, and blood splattered from time to time.
This was the most powerful opponent Lin Xun had faced since he set foot into the third longevity tribulation, so he must be on guard at all times.
Even so, he was wounded!
The nine spears were incredibly sharp and could be called divine magical weapons. Everything they touched exploded and pulverized into dust.
Any other cultivators would likely be killed right away!
People were stupefied, and their hearts were in their throats because they saw that Lin Xun was injured and was dripping with blood.
In the past, Demon God Lin was always invincible.
This proved how strong Underworld Son was and that he was indeed worthy of being an ancient-era eccentric genius from the Underworld River Forbidden Zone.
Of course, some people noticed that Underworld Son did not look that good either. He was quivering and his face was slightly pale!
Buzz—
Suddenly, Lin Xun raised one finger like he was gathering the great mighty energy of all ages. Those who submitted will prosper while those who defied shall perish.
A Moment of Spring and Autumn!
Many people trembled inwardly.
But top figures such as Little Golden Winged Dapeng King widened their eyes and their faces lit up.
Pu!
Under the finger, any other opponent would be crushed.
But Underworld Son was only wounded. He staggered backwards from the force of the finger and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
But at the same time, a bloody cut split Lin Xun’s chest. His skin was torn, and his bones were exposed. It was a scratch from one of the spears!
Both had been injured, and it was unclear who had the upper hand.
But everyone knew that, comparatively speaking, Lin Xun performed amazingly.
This was because, in terms of cultivation, he was a level below Underworld Son, yet they were evenly matched in battle.
Blazing light surfaced from Underworld Son, healing all his injuries in an instant.
Everyone’s jaw dropped. What an unbelievable restoring ability! Does that not defy the heavens? How can anyone fight him?
But then, to their astonishment, a layer of strange dao light flowed over Lin Xun, and the next second, his injuries were completely healed!
“He…”
Everyone was speechless with shock. The two had fought hundreds of rounds and suffered severe injuries, but now, they both recovered like nothing happened.
Unbelievable!
“Hmph! Playtime is over. Next, I will tell you what it means by ‘’no matter how good you think you are, there is always someone out there that is better!’”
Underworld Son’s face was like ice as he chanted a string of cryptic and complex syllables, like the whistle of wind from the depths of the underworld.
Then, his imposing bearing soared bit by bit...
