Lin Xun walked over and sat cross-legged on the mat.

That Jade Records Gold Book was overflowing with golden light that was sacred and majestic, and radiated with Dao energy.

However, after obtaining the secrets of the Sacred Combat Art, the golden book had become different in his eyes. The flowing golden light seemed to cast out a hazy little world.

Lin Xun’s face lit up in amazement. He was right. Within the blinding golden light was the fading image of a world, like dilapidated ruins.

There, the sacred mountain subsided, and the palaces collapsed. All the ancient buildings had been turned into ruins, and ancient trees and auspicious plants had long withered into ashes.

A supposed paradise land had been reduced to rubble and dust. It had become ruins after an unknown disaster.

“Fangchun!”

Lin Xun palpitated. He saw two vague ancient daoist texts remaining on the collapsed mountain.

“Slanted moon…three stars…”

Not long after that, he noticed an ancient tablet inserted into the ruins in front of the collapsed ancient mountain gate. He looked closer and could vaguely make out four characters.

“Could this be the place that all the Buddhist saints are all looking for?”

Lin Xun thought of the Mayahana secret script left on the forty-nine ancient altars, and indescribable emotions rushed up his heart.

At the time, he and Toady had speculated that the Buddhist saints were persistently searching for Fangchun Mountain, the land of three stars and slanted moon, in hopes of obtaining the so-called secret of the Boddhi.

He was certain that the Buddhist saints had failed in the end, so they ended up believing that it was a lie and that it didn’t exist.

But now, Lin Xun fell into a daze. He realized that the so-called Fangchun Mountain and the land of three stars and slanted moon indeed existed...and was not a lie...

“Huh?”

To his surprise, the blurry scene began to change, and a figure emerged!

The figure before the collapsed ancient mountain gate had its back facing Lin Xun. It remained silent and still like a statue as though it was reminiscing about the past.

The subsided sacred mountain, the collapsed ancient mountain gate, the ruined palace hall that had been reduced to rubble, and the silent and still figure all had an air of melancholy around them.

However, Lin Xun felt a completely different aura when he laid eyes on the figure. It was as vast as the sky, as wild as the clouds, and filled with boundless terror!

He felt as though he was facing a terrifying combat master and was unable to defend or fight back. He felt so oppressed to the point of suffocation.

It was just the rear view of a figure standing in front of a collapsed mountain gate, but it felt like an authority ruler from ancient times. The mighty and overbearing presence could subdue even the nine heavens and ten lands.

Even if Lin Xun knew that the figure didn’t exist in the same time and space as him and that thousands, if not endless years, had passed since its existence, he still shuddered at the sight of the afterimage. He felt like an insignificant ant facing the mighty divine god.

That figure is too powerful!

“Is it him?” He couldn’t calm his pounding heart.

Vaguely, he recognized that the aura of the figure seemed very similar to that of the mighty figure in the secret fighting diagram. They resembled the same person.

They both had the same imposing bearing that could turn the universe upside down and unparalleled fighting skills to crush all nine heavens and ten lands!

Seconds later, the figure suddenly moved, kneeling in front of the mountain gate without a word, and kowtowed three times.

Then, he took out a book with both hands and sealed it inside the mountain gate.

Lin Xun’s heart pounded. Isn’t that the Jade Records Gold Book?

Before he could figure out the situation, thousands of lightning tribulations descended upon the damaged mountain gate!

At the same time, countless gods and demons appeared, blotting out the heaven and earth, and a terrifying aura saturated the air.

The mighty figure sprang up suddenly, looked up at the sky, and an invisible and terrifying fighting power erupted from him.

Instead of retreating, he advanced. He charged into the thousands of lightning tribulations and fought against the countless gods and demons. His superior and mighty bearing made his figure appear like a ray of light, illuminating everything!

A battle broke out.

It was then that the scene started to blur. Even so, the fighting aura alone was strong enough to make all gods tremble. It was as though the world was about to be wiped out.

Lin Xun blanched. His mind had almost suffered from an adverse effect. He frantically looked away from the scene.

At that moment, the golden book before him became still and calm, and all the scenes vanished into flowing gold dao light.

“It turns out that this book was left by him...” muttered Lin Xun.

In any case, he had learned about the origin of the Jade Records Gold Book and realized its supreme value. Even if it had little to do with the Secret of the Boddhi, it was intricately linked with Fangchun Mountain and the land of the slanted moon and three stars!

Lin Xun stood up, faced the golden book on the praying mat and solemnly bowed his head. “Thank you for imparting knowledge to me.”

In the previous battle, he had obtained the inheritance of the Sacred Combat Art and comprehended the essence and secrets of combat.

As for the Jade Records Gold Book, he had no reason to take it.

For Lin Xun, the book was more of a carrier as its secret had already been engraved in his mind.

It was a combat inheritance. Its true profound secrets and meaning could only be comprehended during battle. A cultivator would never capture the essence by blindly seizing the book.

At that moment, an unfathomable roar swept across the ancient training ground like the sound of the great dao.

The praying mat faded into a rain of light.

The Jade Records Gold Book also vanished without a sound or trace. It was as though it had never appeared in the world.

The ancient training grounds also collapsed in the air, turning into nine ancient stone cauldrons and returning to their respective ancient halls on the nine mountains.

As for Lin Xun, a wave of dao light had long shrouded his body before all the changes happened. He vanished with the light.

……

At the foot of the mountain, all the cultivators cried out.

It disappeared!

In addition to the training ground, the nine mountains were also sinking into the ground amidst deep rumbling sounds.

The entire world seemed to be becoming unstable and disintegrating. There were signs of imminent destruction everywhere.

“Run!”

Without any hesitation, cultivators of all clans turned and bolted, instantly vanishing from the area along the fifty-four ancient altars.

“Run!” Xiao Ran drew a deep breath, retracted his gaze and left with Su Xingfeng and the others.

“Are we going to leave like this?” Su Xingfeng sounded reluctant to leave.

“This opportunity is about to end. If my guess is correct, it’s time to leave. We just need to wait outside the Deva Secret Realm and that’s enough.” Xiao Ran passed a voice message as he darted away.

Wait for what?

Of course, wait for Lin Xun to come out!

Su Xingfeng’s and the others’ eyes lit up, and they no longer hesitated. They grew more and more excited as they thought about it. That guy Lin Xuan has won the greatest opportunities, but will he be the final winner?

No!

At least, Spirit Treasure Holy Island wouldn’t let him go so easily when he left the Deva Secret realm!

“Demon God youngster, when you come out, it’s your time of death!” Meng Lianqing‘s cold and resentful voice rang amid the chaotic fleeing. Her threat was full of murderous intent.

While fleeing, many cultivators realized that, although Lin Xun was strong enough to crush all the saints and seize the greatest treasure, he had killed too many people and angered too many clans. He was doomed when he tried to leave the Deva Secret Realm!

Many people gritted their teeth, excited. But many sighed, pitying Lin Xun.

So what if you possess heaven-defying strength?

You can’t possibly escape from so many behemoth clans!

Lin Xun had reached the foot of the mountain and met up with Zhao Jingxuan and Toady, so he had also heard these words.

But his dark eyes were cold, calm and without the faintest ripple. He had already predicted such a situation so he didn’t panic.

You win some and you lose some.

He swept all the peerless supreme saints and won the inheritance of the Sacred Combat Art. But now, the price he had to pay for that was to meet the unpredictable disaster waiting for him outside Deva Secret Realm.

There were always gains and losses. That was inevitable in the competition for opportunities.

“Boy, the situation isn’t good. What do you plan to do?” Toady asked in worry.

They entered an ancient altar together and returned to a peak of the Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain.

Not long after they left, the nine mountains, together with the world where they were just in, crumbled and vanished without a trace.

“Don’t worry. Things will work out. At worst, I won’t leave the Deva Secret Realm. Don’t you think this place is very suitable for cultivation? Isn’t it better to stay here and train hard instead of going out and being attacked?” Lin Xun asked.

“Nonsense! The Deva Secret Realm will close up again soon. Once you miss the opportunity to go out, I don’t know when it will open next time. It might never open again. Do you want that to happen?” Toady snapped.

“Then, what do you think we should do?” asked Lin Xun.

“I…” Toady stuttered. He also didn’t know what to do.

He scrunched up his face and frowned. “Yes, what should we do...”

“The heavens never seal off all paths. There is always hope. We will figure something out,” Zhao Jingxuan said aloud, her bright and beautiful face as calm and composed as always.

Boom!

Suddenly, the Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain started to quake, the rocks cracked, and the fifty-four altars distributed in various areas on the mountain peak split apart.

“This isn’t good. Hurry up and leave this place!” Toady screamed as he somersaulted.

They bolted down the mountain right away.

The cultivators of all clans also realized that something was wrong and sped down Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain like a tide.

The place was about to collapse and disappear!

As the Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain started to shake, terrifying creatures that had been waiting quietly such as the golden-winged dapeng, the giant serpent, the azure fox, the five-colored butterfly and the green-jade centipede all rose from their hiding places.

They had been waiting quietly for this moment!
