Chapter 955 Eighteen Sons of the Earth Treasury

Chapter 955 Eighteen Sons of the Earth Treasury

"They’re nothing but a bunch of rats who only know how to hide!"

Shun Baixuan was in high spirits as he laughed at the sky. He believed he was the most dazzling person at this moment.

He had been silently enduring since he was defeated by Xia Zhi, believing it was a great shame that made him unable to proudly raise his head.

He had suppressed these feelings for too long and could no longer tolerate others stealing the limelight. He wanted to use this chance to wash away his shame and regain his pride.

He would show Miss Le that he, Shun Baixuan, wasn’t someone who just anyone could ridicule!

How dare they call him a fool, to hell with all of them!

"Noisy!"

"Shut up!"

However, Luo Jia and Miss Le didn’t show him any respect and scolded him in unison, "You will be punished if you disturb Lin Xun!"

Shun Baixuan's laughter abruptly stopped. Due to the suddenness, he choked on his breath and nearly fell from the air.

How infuriating!

What is that attitude?

Shun Baixuan’s expression turned stormy, feeling extremely sullen. He felt that his dignity had been trampled on.

Miss Le said, "Young Master Shun, I have to apologize."

Shun Baixuan was taken aback, and his expression soon softened. She isn’t a bad girl and knows how to acknowledge her mistakes. I can forgive her.

"I provoked you earlier because I wanted to lure out those hidden Earth Treasury Temple disciples. It is clear that it was a success." Miss Le smiled.

"You..." Shun Baixuan suddenly felt crushed and angrily said, "You used me as bait?"

Miss Le asked, "I noticed that you couldn’t wait to kill the enemy, so I resorted to this petty trick. Aren’t you happy?"

Shun Baixuan nearly vomited blood in anger. Even killing the enemy had all been planned in advance. He was completely being used!

He thought he could use this opportunity to wash away his shame, but it was all a trap!

For the first time, Shun Baixuan felt that he was very unlucky to have come to the Boundary River. He was first beaten up by a girl and now was being made use of like a pawn by Miss Le...why were women so horrible these days!?

It was at this time that Lin Xun, who had been sitting, suddenly got up. His deep black eyes surged with wisps of intimidating light.

Luo Jia asked, "You’ve succeeded?"

"Let's just say I barely got across the doorstep."

Lin Xun gazed at the tightly shut doors of the Buddhist Temple and muttered, "This restriction is extremely mysterious and extraordinary. It is impossible to fully study its secrets from the outside."

Miss Le mused, "In other words, you’ll have to analyze it while advancing?"

"That’s right." Lin Xun nodded.

"That’s all you’ve achieved after wasting so much time?"

Shun Baixuan was immediately dissatisfied and reprimanded Lin Xun, "It seems to me that you’re not living up to your identity as a rune founder."

Lin Xun grinned and replied, "Feel free to take over if you have the ability."

"I..." Shun Baixuan immediately received a threatening glare from Luo Jia the moment he opened his mouth again. His expression froze before he grunted resentfully and kept quiet.

Miss Le said, "Let’s proceed. Although we’ve killed seven Earth Treasury Temple disciples, all of them were small fries. The powerful experts have probably entered already."

Lin Xun immediately stepped forward to lead the way. With a wave of his sleeve, runes appeared in a flash of light as he rushed in.

Restriction undulations abruptly surged to block his path. Solemn black Buddhist light shone brilliantly, emitting a chilling and terrifying aura.

From this, it could be seen that they would have faced the onslaught of the restriction if they had tried to enter without a plan.

Shun Baixuan was stunned into a rare silence. He could see that the restriction power was extremely terrifying, and it made his scalp turn numb.

"Go!"

Lin Xun summoned the Broken Blade. It revolved around him as a grave look emerged from between his brows.

The others closely followed.

Gurgle~

As Lin Xun advanced, the restriction magically parted like the sea. He had evidently already figured out its secrets and neutralized its killing intent.

The temple doors soundlessly opened, revealing a bright interior. It was as if the temple was bathed in holy Buddhist light.

When the group passed through the temple doors, the scenery before their eyes suddenly changed as if they had entered a mysterious world.

The sky was ink-black as if it was covered by the curtain of the eternal night.

Wisps of Buddhist light drifted in the air, giving the place an ethereal, peaceful, and solemn atmosphere.

At a glance, the surroundings appeared very run-down as well. The walls and tiles were damaged, the grass and trees were withered, and the ground was overgrown with weeds as if it had been abandoned for countless years.

Shen Baixuan suddenly shouted, "It's those baldies!"

An ancient black Buddhist altar-cabinet could be seen deep within the temple.

Five black-clad monks were seated before the altar-cabinet, holding black rosary beads as they chanted something in a low voice.

Lin Xun’s and the others’ hearts shivered.

The black altar-cabinet was very old, and there didn’t appear to be anything special about it. However, it didn’t enshrine a Buddha sculpture but a black phoenix!

The black phoenix’s wings were withdrawn, its body curled into a ball, and its eyes closed. It appeared to be in a fetal position.

A black haze burned around it with strings of strange, warped runes flickering and flowing within the haze, creating a mystical sight.

"I can feel it. The remnant spirit is slumbering inside it!" Luo Jia was clearly excited and could not wait to rush over.

"Careful!" Lin Xun hurriedly reminded her. The place was covered in densely-packed restrictions, and a single misstep could lead to unpredictable disaster.

"Since ancient times, the phoenix has been said to be immortal because it can be reborn. Hence, it can be predicted that the Dark Blood Black Phoenix planned to undergo the process of rebirth after it was killed all those years ago..." Wisdom surged in Miss Le’s clear eyes.

"C’mon, how much time have we wasted already? Cut the crap and let’s go kill them!" Murderous intent steamed from Shun Baixuan. He had clearly grown impatient.

This seemed to alert the five black-clad monks. They rose one after another and looked over.

The atmosphere immediately turned tense!

The black-clad monk at the head of the group said, "Fellow Dao Friends, this is a restricted area where a Saint of our Earth Treasury Temple died. Kindly leave at once or you will soon face disaster."

He had fair skin, strong eyebrows, clear eyes, and a polished forehead. His posture was straight like a pine tree while his expression gave off a sensation of heart-palpitating indifference.

He gave off a majestic aura akin to the sea and resembled a Luohan standing atop a mountain of corpses and blood who sought to purify all evil.

A single glance made Lin Xun's and the others’ hearts shiver. They realized that this young monk was a terrifying individual and would be a formidable foe.

Miss Le suddenly said, "Eighteen beads, it seems that this Dao Friend is one of this generation’s eighteen sons of the Earth Treasury Temple?"

As she spoke, she also explained to Lin Xun and the others via voice-transmission.

"Since ancient times, the eighteen sons of the Earth Treasury Temple represent the top eighteen individuals who have forged the Luohan Golden Body. In addition, each of them was bestowed one of the temple’s great inheritances.

"The eighteen sons were further divided into three groups, the Six Mind Group, the Six Root Group, and the Six Dust Group.

"Each group consisted of six Luohan experts. Together, they formed the eighteen sons of the Earth Treasury Temple!

"In short, they are the supreme heaven prides of the Earth Treasury Temple and possess unparalleled strength."

After hearing her explanation, Lin Xun and the others better understood the situation and their gazes turned more serious when they looked at the young monk.
