Chapter 1348 Encirclement of Saints
Amidst the sound of destruction, an illusory figure drifted into the scene.
It was a skinny young man in a gorgeous wide-sleeved robe with a dagger as a hairpin. He was not particularly handsome, but he had an unignorable air of majesty.
Only clansmen of the Golden Crow Clan knew that the young man was an old monster who had been in closed-door cultivation for thousands of years.
Wu Xiutong!
He was the Thirteenth Heavenly Oracle of the Golden Crow Clan. His identity alone already showed that he was a True Saint and could control Saint dao law power.
“No matter how fast you run, it’s useless.”
Wu Xiutong swept a glance around before he stepped forward and vanished in a flash.
......
“I sense the aura of a saint.”
Very far away, two men in wide-sleeved flowy robes and tall hats were walking side by side.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man with a neatly trimmed beard wrinkled his brow and looked off into the distance.
“Senior Brother Ku Ya, someone is chasing down a target just like us.”
The middle-aged man’s eyes were deep and unfathomable and swirled with frightening sword intent.
An old man with sunken cheeks said in a hoarse voice, “Yes, it’s a True Saint. Based on his aura, he should be from the Golden Crow Clan of the Sunset Current Valley.”
“A true Saint?”
The middle aged man felt a chill.
“Junior Brother Yu Xiu, it’s time for us to take action. We can’t let the Omega Sword fall into someone else’s hands.”
The old man Ku Ya’s hoarse voice sounded again.
“Yes.” Yu Xiu nodded.
The two saints from the Omega Sword Sect teleported away.
“Ku Ya...seems like he also can’t sit still...”
A moment later, a black-robed monk appeared where they were. He had a very young appearance, but his eyes seemed to have seen the great vicissitudes of life.
“It seems like I am not the only one who wants to deal with that boy...” the black robed monk sighed.
However, if word spread that such a lineup had been dispatched to deal with a youngster at the king stage, it would be disgraceful to all of them.
“Fine, let’s also see what that boy is capable of that could attract worldwide attention and make all saints in the world emerge.”
The black-robed monk disappeared in a flash.
In the ancient temple hall of Earth Treasury Temple, an old monk murmured, “Senior Brother Fa Zheng...he should have found the whereabouts of the heretic, right?”
......
The outline of a grand city loomed in the distance.
Swoosh!
Lin Xun put away the Grand Universe Ark and then checked behind him.
A quarter of an hour ago, after killing Wu Hengya, he suddenly encountered an extremely dangerous situation that forced him to bolt without hesitation.
He thought about it and concluded that the attacker had to be a True Saint!
Their aura was too majestic and sacred, far superior to that of Wu Liuchi and Wu Hengya.
However, Lin Xun quickly fought off the fear.
He turned his gaze to the huge city looming in the distance.
In truth, he wanted to enter the city and have a good rest, but that could put him in a dangerous situation.
In the past ten years, he had not experienced the atmosphere of the mundane world.
“Never mind.”
He gave up in the end.
However, just as he was about to take the route around the city, a sweet voice sounded in his ears.
“Young man, if you enter the city, millions of lives in the city will be lost because of you. Go no farther.”
Lin Xun’s black eyes narrowed imperceptibly, and via his spirit sense, he noticed a jeweled chariot floating in the high altitude.
Sitting inside was a woman in palace attire. Her skin was as bright as snow, her black hair was as dark as ink, her appearance was stunning, and her aura was unrivaled.
“You are?” Lin Xun asked indifferently.
“Shang Ye from the Sea Soul Clan.” The woman’s voice was as captivating and pleasant as pearls scattering across a jade plate.
Lin Xun nodded, and he drifted onto the summit of a mountain. The howling mountain wind whipped up his black hair and rustled his clothes.
He scanned the area. “The high and mighty saints have come here, why are you all hiding?”
His calm voice reverberated across heaven and earth.
“Hah, that little bastard’s spirit power is not bad.”
As a chuckle sounded, a slender and majestic figure emerged from the rolling clouds.
It was a man in white with a strange golden hoop in his left ear.
“You are?” asked Lin Xun.
“Mo Kong from Thousand Beast Spirit Mountain.”
The white-robed man gave a faint smile, exuding holiness.
“Remember what you said.”
Lin Xun swept a glance over him and then looked to the other side.
A bronze chariot roared through the void, blood running down its sides, and brought a negative and sinister energy to the area. Standing inside was a figure blurred by billowing black mist.
The black misty figure stated in a chilling voice, “Fellow daoists, I only want the bastard’s heart. The rest I will leave it all to you.”
Lin Xun did not ask a question this time. He suddenly felt that there was no need to know who the other parties were because they were all enemies.
Who cares who they are?
Lin Xun might not care, but everyone else present couldn’t help but care. They all recognized that the black misty figure in the bronze chariot was an influential figure from the Moon Worshipper Sect, a Holy Hidden Land.
Saint Xia Houxue!
“Any more people?”
Lin Xun ran his eyes over Shang Ye from the Sea Soul Clan, Mo Kong from the Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain, and Xia Houxue from the Moon Worshipper Sect.
Three saints had come!
In terms of aura, it was no doubt terrifying.
“Not bad, it is amazing that you have such a level of cultivation at your age and have become the number one person of the Supreme Realm, surpassing all your peers.”
Suddenly, a sonorous voice sounded like the clang of a sword, and then another two saints, Ku Ya and Yu Xiu from the Omega Sword Sect, also appeared.
It was Ku Ya who spoke.
“It’s a pity. One will always remain an ant if they can’t become a saint. Regardless of how amazing and wonderful you are, a saint can crush you with one finger,” Yu Xiu said indifferently.
“Not necessarily.” Someone interjected, “Not long ago, he personally killed two oracles of the saint stage from our clan. He is cruel and ruthless.”
As the voice rang out, Wu Xiutong appeared, his lightning-like eyes locking on Lin Xun who was atop the mountain.
He revealed something very shocking to all the old monsters.
They knew very well that the saint stage oracles of the Golden Crow Clan might only be False Saints, but they could not believe that someone below the saint stage could defeat them.
But now, two False Saints had shockingly died in Lin Xun’s hands.
Suddenly, everyone studied Lin Xun with a strange look.
“Do you think the mysterious female saint did it?”
In the sky, Shang Ye, dressed in palace attire, stepped out of the jeweled chariot.
Hearing her question, all the saints narrowed their eyes imperceptibly. This was precisely the reason why they hadn’t made a move yet.
After all, the incident of her herding saints like animals from ten years ago was still a huge deal!
As saints, they obviously could look down at Lin Xun and treat him like an ant, but at the same time they had to be wary of the mysterious woman behind him.
“No, that little bastard killed them by himself.” Wu Xiutong sighed, “Everyone, I have a request. After we kill that little bastard, I just want his bow and arrow. I hope you all agree.”
Everyone else was expressionless, neither agreeing nor objecting.
Wu Xiutong sneered in his heart and said nothing else. He had already informed them so if anyone dared to interfere later, they could not blame him for his rudeness!
“We are here just to retrieve the Omega Sword.” Yu Xiu suddenly stated, “If you think that we should not take back the sword then by all means advise us later.”
Although he spoke in the calmest voice, it was filled with murderous intent.
“If that’s the case, can I also request something? An inheritance from my Earth Treasury Temple has fallen into the boy’s hands, and I have to take it back.”
As a gentle voice sounded, Fa Zheng, clad in a black monk robe, appeared on the scene and instantly became the focus of everyone’s attention.
Earth Treasury Temple was a top rated Hidden Holy Land in the world, and Fa Zheng was a saint monk!
A group of saints appeared one after another, blocking all directions of escape. The way they spoke showed they regarded Lin Xun as a nobody, and they even discussed with one another about dividing up Lin Xun’s belongings.
Moreover, they repeatedly addressed him as ‘little bastard!’
How would this not ignite murderous intent in Lin Xun? Do those old people think they could do whatever they want just because they have set foot into the Saint Stage?
“There’s nothing else to say. Little trash, hand over all your belongings, and we will end you quickly and painlessly,” Xia Houxue threatened.
This was undoubtedly a blatant insult.
“Haha.” Lin Xun’s eyes flashed with contempt. “A group of saints have emerged and encircled me. Not only are you guys shameless but you also lack the courage to take action. I just want to ask why are you still talking so much nonsense and not doing anything?”
All the saints’ expressions turned cold.
They were obviously unhappy to be ridiculed by a junior, but worst of all, Lin Xun had hit the nail on the head with his words!
They had not taken action so far because they were afraid of the mysterious woman behind Lin Xun.
Additionally, they had no alliance or friends among them, so everyone was hesitant to be the first to make a move.
“But the most ridiculous thing is that in addition to you all who showed your faces, there are still many shameless old fools hiding in the shadows and haven’t come out yet!”
Standing on the edge of the cliff, Lin Xun sneered, showing not a flicker of fear. “Are you all worried about being treated like an animal and being herded?”
Those words were ruthless!
Suddenly, the saints’ faces darkened, and their auras spread outwards, turning the world dim and tense.
The world fell silent as invisible, terrifying saint power built up in the area like a landslide or a tsunami. The sight of such a scene was enough to make any cultivator break down!
“Everyone, why don’t we attack together?” Yu Xiu uttered coldly.
“Alright!”
“Then let’s all show our abilities.”
The others agreed one after another, their eyes turning stone-cold. They all regarded Lin Xun as dead meat.
They obviously had the confidence if they dared to come here to kill Lin Xun.
They might fear the mysterious woman, but that was not enough to falter their determination to kill Lin Xun.
Moreover, there were many saints present, each from a different major clan or sect. Even if the mysterious woman did appear, in this situation, could she...
Could she stop it?
