Chapter 1584 - No Matter Who Comes!
The Sovereign's Ascension
The Cold Pond was deep in the Annihilation Mountain Range, a dangerous ground of the Withered Mountain Range. It would take them some effort to go there. Not only was the journey far, but there were many powerful demonic beasts along the way, and they would be in trouble if they werenât careful. It was practically impossible to quietly reach the Cold Pond, and they would be dead if they werenât lucky and ran into Samsara Edict Realm demonic beasts.
Several figures flew across the dark woods. They were all in the Dragon Pulse Realm, especially the leader of the group. His aura felt like a ferocious dragon, a sign he had reached the pinnacle of the third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm.
âThis is the second batch, right!â Lin Yun said as he walked out of the hiding spot with his brows furrowed. This was the third person in the third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm he ran into along the way, and they were all at the pinnacle.
The increase in strength at each pulse was obvious, especially the third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm, because it transformed the vitality and strengthened the physique. Back in the Heavenly Pool Gathering, he barely managed to defeat Luo Yuan, who had just reached the third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm.
It was fine if he faced a pinnacle third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm because he was confident of fleeing even if he couldnât defeat them.
âAre there other usages to the Black Tortoiseâs Saint Blood?â Lin Yun asked. He had a feeling that these people were heading to the Cold Pond.
âIf I remember correctly, the Black Tortoiseâs Saint Blood can aid them during their tribulation. After all, failing the tribulation means death, especially when the tribulations in the third, sixth, and ninth-pulses are more dangerous!â Lilâ Purple said, emphasizing âdeath.â
âThat works? Why didnât Senior Sister Mu tell me about it?â Lin Yun asked. He knew there was a threshold every three pulses, but he didnât realize that Black Tortoiseâs Saint Blood could help in the tribulation.
âYou didnât ask, right?â
âUhâ¦â
âYou also didnât tell her that you needed it to cultivate the Divine Tortoise Transformation, right?â
âI didnât.â
Rolling her eyes, Lilâ Purple replied, âAnd you still have the cheek to blame Mu Xueqin? She probably thought that you needed it for your tribulation.â
Her words made Lin Yun smile awkwardly, but his eyes soon lit up, and he asked, âThatâs possible?â
âOf course. Speaking of which, you really need it. Your foundation is too terrifying by converting all your astral energy into dragon origin. I speculate that your tribulation might be more terrifying than others at the third pulse.â Lilâ Purple said after a brief pondering.
Lilâ Purpleâs words made Lin Yunâs face sink because he really didnât think about that, and Lilâ Purple had really reminded him. He was initially planning to find an opportunity to make a breakthrough, but it looks like he had to plan it now.
âIs it possible that the Black Tortoiseâs Saint Blood can help me through the tribulation and cultivate the Divine Tortoise Transformation?â Lin Yun asked with flames blazing in his eyes. Only a child would pick one between the two, and he wanted both!
âHa.â Lilâ Purple sneered. âYou wish.â
Lin Yun smiled bitterly upon hearing that, and he asked, âIs it really impossible?â
âWell, itâs not exactly impossible.â
âSpeak!â Lin Yunâs eyes shone brightly.
âIf youâre its father.â Lilâ Purple wore a mocking smile.
Lin Yunâs face sank when he heard that because Lilâ Purple was routing to scold him. If he was the father of the Heavenly Profound Tortoise, wouldnât that make him an old tortoise?
Seeing Lin Yunâs expression, Lilâ Purple laughed, âDonât bother thinking about it. Donât really treat it as a tortoise because itâs a Heavenly Profound Tortoise! As a descendant who inherited a divine beastâs bloodline, it wonât be easy to deal with, even if it's in the Dragon Pulse Realm. Iâm a divine beast and know it better than you.â
Lin Yun nodded because Lilâ Purple was no longer confident when they spoke of the Heavenly Profound Tortoise. One must know that even those at the Samsara Edict Realm would have difficulty dealing with ominous auras close to ten thousand years old.
âLetâs go.â Lin Yun hopped down the tree and sat on the Demonic Rune Tiger, âLead the way.â
The journey to the Cold Pond was far. There were many demonic beasts along the way, and they would be hindered if they werenât careful. But with the Demonic Rune Tiger leading the way, it could save them time.
Suddenly, a firework lit up in the dark sky, and the fire formed the Sword Sectâs symbol. This made Lin Yunâs face change when he saw this scene because this was a sign that a Sword Sectâs disciple was in danger. He dashed into the sky from the Demonic Rune Tigerâs back, executing his movement technique, and bolted over.
âWhy does Lord Lin need to ride me when heâs so fast?â The Demonic Rune Tiger was dumbfounded.
Lin Yun didnât take long to arrive where the firework lit up. When he landed on a tree and looked ahead, there was a Sword Sectâs disciple facing a bladesman, and another person was watching from the side. More accurately speaking, this person wasnât just watching from the side.
This saint spiritualist created layers of arrays to suppress that disciple from the Sword Sect. That Sword Sectâs disciple was in the first-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm, and his opponent was in the third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm. It was clear that they were toying with him, and they probably released that signal wanting to attract more of Sword Sectâs disciples.
âThese two again!â Lin Yunâs eyes flashed coldly because these two were the demonic cultivators he had previously ran into, Dong An and Mo Yun. As for that Sword Sectâs disciple, it was Chen Ling of the Divine Firmament Sword Sutra, the person he fought with when he had just joined the Divine Firmament Peak.
âLooks like there wonât be any more disciples. Itâs meaningless to kill him.â Mo Yun smiled from the side.
âIt doesnât matter. Iâll play for a little longer. Big Brother said thereâs no need to let them have an easy death if we run into the Sword Sectâs disciples.â Dong An wore a sinister smile as he unleashed a blade ray and sent Chen Ling flying away.
âHow weak!â Dong An looked at Chen Ling with a smile. Three dragons then faintly appeared behind him.
This brought despair to Chen Lingâs face because he knew he would be killed today. But fortunately, no Sword Sectâs disciples were attracted to this location because of him, or he would feel guilty even in his death.
âHaha. Brat, letâs play a game. Iâll stand here. If you can make me budge with a punch, Iâll give you an easy death!â Dong An smiled sinisterly.
âKill me if you want and cut the crap. The Sword Sect will take vengeance for me!â Chen Ling gritted his teeth.
âYouâre pretty stubborn. They all say that Sword Sectâs disciples are stubborn, so let me see how stubborn you are!â Dong An sneered as his third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm aura pressed down, crushing on Chen Lingâs sword aura.
âKneel!â Dong An laughed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As Chen Ling threw out a mouthful of blood, his face distorted, and he roared, âSword Sectâs disciple cannot be humiliated!â
This made Dong Anâs face change, and he couldnât help being moved by Chen Lingâs gaze. But a brief moment later, that soon became rage blazing in his pupils.
âWell said!â A voice echoed as Lin Yun descended beside Chen Ling. As Lin Yun unleashed his sword aura, the pressure Chen Ling felt was instantly lifted.
When Chen Ling raised his head, he was shocked to see Lin Yun and yelled, âSenior Brother Lin, why are you here? Leave quickly! Theyâre both demonic cultivators on the Demonic Ranking. Return to the sect and inform the deacons to capture them!â
âHaha! We meet again, brat!â Dong An was briefly stunned upon seeing Lin Yun before he laughed, âWhereâs your cat? Bring it out, and let me kill it!â
He still remembered his hatred for Lilâ Red, and he wanted to take revenge. This was the reason why he rejoiced when he saw Lin Yun. On the other hand, Mo Yun wore a grave expression because he knew how strong Lin Yun was.
As the Demonic Rune Tiger ran over, Lilâ Red, who was on its back, hopped onto Lin Yunâs shoulder and asked, âBig Brother, what do you have in mind?â
âOne each.â Lin Yun replied. These two people were a little disgusting if they joined forces, but it was much easier to deal with them if they fought one-on-one.
âHehe, alrighty.â Lilâ Redâs eyes shone as it disappeared from Lin Yunâs shoulder, pouncing at Dong An.
This made Dong An squint his eyes. He could feel an extremely dangerous aura. But the cat had disappeared from his eyes. Its speed was so fast that he couldnât keep up.
Just when he felt uncertain, he was soon enveloped in a shadow, and his face changed significantly when he raised his head. There was a black Dracoape that had reached nearly thirty-feet in height. It had crimson eyes and was enveloped in a baleful aura as it slammed down with its palm.
âYou think you can crush me?â Dong An quickly retreated when Lilâ Redâs palm descended and left a huge palm print on the ground, but the shockwave sent Dong An flying away.
But Lilâ Red didnât let Dong An go so easily. It stomped its foot on the ground before dashing over.
âTake care of my junior brother.â Lin Yun said to the Demonic Rune Tiger before he dashed over to Mo Yun. He no longer planned to hold back this time. Since they ran into each other again, he might as well just kill them.
Upon receiving Lin Yunâs orders, the Demonic Rune Tiger ran over to Chen Ling and wore a fawning smile, âLord, stand behind me. Iâll kill whoever dares to touch you.â
As it spoke, it turned into its humanoid form wielding a saint blade, which made its fawning smile look terrifying. Seeing the Demonic Rune Tigerâs sinister fawning smile, Chen Lingâs legs began to tremble.
When Mo Yun saw Lin Yun charging over, he immediately summoned his constellation. It was a painting of a brush, and his aura began to rise with countless spiritual runes filling up the surroundings. When he waved his hand, multiple saint diagrams opened up, and thirty-six saint diagrams soon surrounded him. But he was cautious and didnât take the initiative to attack. Instead, he set up those saint diagrams around him as a defense.
He could summon eighteen saint diagrams if he didnât summon his constellation. But upon summoning his constellation, the number of saint diagrams was immediately doubled.
âWhat a tortoise shell.â Lin Yun furrowed his brows in mid-air because those saint diagrams were like a shield. Mo Yun no longer dared to attack him first after previously suffering a loss, fearing that Lin Yun would return all the saint diagrams to him.
âAre all saint spiritualists cowards like you?â Lin Yun asked.
âI dare not to be careless. I know your means, so you can come at me if you have the guts.â Mo Yun smiled with his eyes squinted. The thirty-six saint diagrams were connected, and they would all explode when Lin Yun touched even one of them.
At that time, even a third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm expert would be killed. He might not be able to do anything to Lin Yun, but he also didnât feel that Lin Yun could do anything to him. A saint spiritualist had plenty of ways if they focus on defense.
Lin Yun naturally wouldnât fall for those words and released his sword aura, locking onto Mo Yun, not allowing him to flee.
âHa, you want to carry on?â Mo Yun smiled. âYou have no chance. When my big brother arrives, you wonât be able to leave even if you wanted to.â
His words finally made Lin Yunâs face change a little. If he remembered correctly, they still had two companions, and one was wielding a bone flute with a cultivation at the pinnacle third-pulse Dragon Pulse Realm.
While in this temporary stalemate, a commotion resounded not too far away as the Dracoape held onto a person, constantly slamming him against the ground. After turning into its Dracoape form, Lilâ Red used this brute method to humiliate Dong An.
This scene made Lin Yunâs lips twitch because Lilâ Red was really ruthless. He knew that Lilâ Redâs cultivation was even higher than his after reaching the Dragon Pulse Realm, but he didnât expect it to be so terrifying.
Mo Yunâs face drastically changed as he yelled, âGet your pet to release him!â
âYou should worry about yourself, instead.â Lin Yun waved his hand and the Flower Burial Sword flew out from the sword box. Right then, Lin Yunâs sword intent detected a wisp of dangerous aura and a bizarre flute music echoed around, accompanied by a terrifying dragon cry.
âHeâs here!â Mo Yun rejoiced.
Lin Yun had experienced the same situation before. But since he was in a hurry to collect the ominous auras back then, he retreated because he didnât want trouble. But today, no one could save them, no matter who comes. Anyone who dared to humiliate the Sword Sectâs disciples had to die!
