Chapter 1065 Immortal Laws and Rules Change

Chapter 1065 Immortal Laws and Rules Change

Once someone sank into anger and frustration, they would not put up with any other people.

Cultivators were no exception.

Lin Xun’s presence gave his enemies an excuse to vent and so they all started to throw criticism at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun won the qualifications to be in the top four of the Little Giants List, but he was not able to enjoy the glory that came along with it and instead suffered backlash.

Ultimately, it was because he seemed easy to bully. He belonged to no sect and had no clan or sect backing him, so the ancient sect cultivators did not fear him.

This fact showed how difficult it was for someone to rise in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, which was under the control of various ancient sects and clans!

Lin Xun simply smiled at the scene.

Standing on the altar at the mountain peak, he ran his eyes over everyone and he unusually seemed to be growing stronger and stronger. He uttered coldly, “Only brilliant talent draws the jealousy of others. If no one is envious it means that one is still mediocre! Ever since I, Lin Xun, began my cultivation journey, I have tread over mountains of corpses, passed through seas of blood, and broken through dragon lair and tiger dens. What I have achieved today is evident to the sky and the earth and can be proved by the sun and the moon!”

“You all…are not qualified to judge me!” His indifferent voice reverberated throughout the world.

Everyone was flabbergasted. Even the accusations and criticisms were suppressed and faded. Vaguely, they were intimidated.

“Impressive!” Ye Chen’s eyes lit up.

“With his courage and attitude alone, he is worthy of being my peer!” Xiao Cangtian’s eyes swirled with emotions.

Zhao Jingxuan beamed, her white teeth shining, her red lips shimmering, and her enchanting face glowing with admiration.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled when she looked at Lin Xun.

This was the Lin Xun she knew. He had always been different from the rest of the world!

“Nonsense!” Ji Xingyao muttered.

However, she was also stirred.

Everyone knew that Demon God Lin was unrivaled in courage, and his name was widely known. But who knew how much blood and sweat he had put in to come so far as a youngster from the lower domain?

“He is as arrogant as always!” Yu Lingkong scoffed, finding Lin Xun more and more irritating.

Jin Muyun suddenly raised his voice. “Lin Xun, you should stop talking big. Otherwise, you might suffer a slap to the face later on!”

“Slap in the face? Do you think you can?” Lin Xun said indifferently, ”Even if Yun Qingbai is here, he wouldn’t dare to talk to me like this!”

“Do you want to die?!” Jin Muyun’s face darkened.

The faces of the Omega Sword Sect cultivators at the foot of the mountain were also dark and unpleasant. That boy insulted Yun Qingbai, he deserves to be killed!

“Do you want to kill me?” Lin Xun’s lips twitched into a cold smile. “Later on, if you can block three moves from me, I will admit defeat!”

An uproar broke out.

Three moves?

He talks so big!

Even Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen raised their brows.

“Hahaha!” Jin Muyun laughed hysterically from anger, fierce sword intent bursting forth from his body and rays of cold light shooting from his eyes. “Let’s see then!”

“He is too arrogant! Back then when Yun Qingbai claimed to be invincible and looked down upon the entire younger generation, he never dared to say such big words.”

At the foot of the mountain, Yan Zhanqiu sat cross-legged on a boulder, back straight and expression calm as always.

He also witnessed Lin Xun’s performance. Although he didn’t want to, he had to admit that he had underestimated Lin Xun.

The tragic defeat of Qing Wenjun and Li Qingping raised his vigilance ever so slightly.

He was not surprised by Lin Xun’s demon-god-like powers, but he found that he had never fully understood the depth of his power!

“He fights with the might of a demon god and he acts so boldly that sometimes it verges on outrageous, but he is unbothered by how the world views him. If he rises, it will be accompanied by endless storms and cause many troubles.”

Yan Zhanqiu’s eyes flashed an unprecedented determination, “Junior Sister Jingxuan...must not have anything to do with him!”

……

In the last round, the duels that determined the fifth to tenth places on the Little Giants List took place.

The rules were very simple. After the one-on-one duel, the three who lost would be ranked eighth, ninth, and tenth according to their accumulated great dao luck.

The three who won would have to face off against the other two, and the fifth, sixth, and seventh places would be ranked according to the outcome of those battles.

……

The duels soon began, attracting the attention of the audience.

However, Lin Xun, Xiao Cangtian, Ye Chen and Jin Muyun were able to sit at ease and watch the duels.

Even people like Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen took advantage of this time to rest their eyes and quietly meditate, ignoring everything happening in the outside world.

Lin Xun was a little impressed.

Only an incredibly tenacious and clear mind could meditate in such an environment.

Why did cultivators go into closed-door cultivation?

The purpose was to avoid disturbance from the outside world and to fully concentrate their minds on making a breakthrough.

However, if one’s state of mind was strong enough, one could remain calm, motionless and unaffected even in a mountain of swords, a sea of fire and bloody purgatory, or even if a hurricane struck.

Closed-door cultivation was unimportant to them.

Naturally, Lin Xun could also do that, but what moved him was that peerless figures like Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen, who had already stood at the pinnacle, were still able to remain true to their original aspiration and seized every opportunity to practice. Their persistence and powerful will in seeking the dao were enough to move anyone.

One should not worry about opponents that had a better background, greater talent or superior aptitude than one, but only be afraid of opponents who had an innate advantage but also were more diligent and hardworking than one!

“Perhaps, it is also because of that that they achieved so much on their cultivation path?” Lin Xun looked pensive.

A little accumulation might not be able to change anything.

But once it reached a certain level, even rocks could pile up into a mountain and rivers could become seas!

“This trip is worthwhile since I met such characters in the Little Giants List Competition.” Lin Xun finally understood why Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen valued him so much.

They regarded him as their peers!

Lin Xun also viewed them as true opponents. Regardless of what the result was, he looked forward to a showdown with them!

With this thought, fighting spirit rushed up from Lin Xun.

Almost at the same time, Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen, who were meditating on the other peaks, both opened their eyes and looked at Lin Xun as if they sensed something.

When Xiao Cangtian sensed the fighting spirit surging around Lin Xun, his narrow, blade-like eyes gleamed for a second.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, “If you want to drink with me, you must fight without holding back. At that time, I will also go all out!”

Lin Xun smiled. “As you wish!”

“Hmph!” Jin Muyun also noticed their exchange. As a top supreme figure who was also qualified to compete for the top four positions, he naturally sensed the change in Lin Xun’s aura as well as the tremendous fighting intent around him.

However, he donned a disgusted and disdainful expression on his face. Lin Xun had stated that he could defeat him within three moves, and he saw this arrogant and provoking gesture as an insult and couldn’t tolerate it!

Before long, the duels ended and the rankings were decided.

In sixth place was Ji Xingyao.

Seventh was A’lu.

Eighth was Yu Lingkong.

And Gu Liangping and Qi Chongdou were ranked ninth and tenth respectively.

Qi Chongdou was a successor from the Moon Sun Sacred Palace and also Xiao Qinghe’s senior brother. He had maintained a low profile throughout the competition so the fact that he was ranked in the top ten drew gasps of shock.

On the contrary, the fact that Yu Lingkong, a supreme figure from the Longevity Land, was ranked only eighth shocked many people. They predicted that someone like him should be at least fifth place.

But he was beaten by even the barbarian A’lu, which no one expected.

In particular, cultivators from the Longevity Land all looked upset and unjust, unable to accept the result.

Yu Lingkong was also taken aback, his face was overcast and his heart was hit hard.

He already felt ashamed that Lin Xun was ranked above him. But now, he found that he was only ranked eighth. How could the prideful him accept this?

Seeing this, Lin Xun was slightly taken aback, and he couldn’t help thinking of a comment from Shun Baixuan when he was crossing the Boundary River, “Yu Lingkong is nothing more than a genius created by a family of Saints with various resources!”

Lin Xun found that Shun Baixuan’s assessment of Yu Lingkong was pretty accurate.

Back at the Dao Lantern Festival, he had also dueled with Yu Lingkong, and he did not find him particularly tricky to deal with but he could not deny that he possessed an extremely terrifying Saint treasure—the Longevity Palace!

Without the Saint treasure, Yu Lingkong was inferior to Ji Xingyao, Zhao Jingxuan, A’lu and others.

Of course, among the supreme geniuses, it was already remarkable for Yu Lingkong to be able to rank eighth place and he should not be looked down on.

As though aware of Lin Xun’s gaze, Yu Lingkong scrunched his brows, face darkening. He couldn’t accept the result!

“Lin Xun, these duels were limited by the power of rules and order. When I leave this place, I will personally crush you!” Yu Lingkong seethed, revealing his determination and hatred.

Boom!

Suddenly, an incomparably blazing immortal brilliance erupted from the Immortal Sacred Mountain, producing a roar that echoed between heaven and earth like the sound of the great dao, attracting everyone’s attention.

All cultivators were confused to see such a vision happen just as the last duels that would determine the top four positions were about to begin.

What’s going on?

Lin Xun and the others were also taken aback. They had already made full preparations to battle it out according to the rules. Who would have thought that an unexpected chance would happen?

Rumble!

The bizarre movements of the Immortal Sacred Mountain grew more and more violent until rosy clouds were falling from the sky and sacred light was beaming down, creating a sacred atmosphere in the world.

At the same time, resplendent and gorgeous waves of power of law and order rushed forward one after another, constantly intertwining in the air and gradually forming the outline of an unparalleled mighty figure!

“Heavens, what’s that?!”

Everyone’s jaw dropped, and their hearts pounded with disbelief.

The sacred aura of order and rules was indeed astonishing!
