Chapter 2179: Anger Under Extreme Calmness
A few days passed by in a hurry.
Lin Xun's injuries were completely healed, and he refined more than six hundred blood essence pills, rearranged the Killing Array of Perishment, and arranged a half-broken Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array.
While he was busy, Xia Zhi had been guarding the void in front of the fort, as if she would never feel dull and bored.
For the old monsters in the Emperor Stage stationed in different places of the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, after experiencing the calmness of these recent days, they gradually accepted a fact.
With the mysterious woman who had come across the cosmos, ordinary beast tides could no longer threaten Lin Xun's life.
This made countless old monsters who were hostile to Lin Xun depressed, but they could do nothing about it.
Only Battle Emperor Fengling was incredibly happy. Recently, Lin Xun had asked Xia Zhi to send him some barbecue, and he ate it with gusto. Oil had dripped from his mouth, and he had clearly enjoyed every single bite.
This had further confirmed Lin Xun's speculation that this old guy was definitely a foodie.
On this day, Lin Xun came to the space in front of the fort and sat side by side with Xia Zhi, looking at the starry sky in the distance.
Lin Xun had tested it out previously and determined that he was limited to moving around a certain radius around the fort. If he wanted to go further than that, then the law power would stop him.Xia Zhi could barely come within the border of that area, but to stay there, she had to endure the constant impact and oppression of the law power.
Therefore, every once in a while, Xia Zhi had to get up and leave in order to avoid consuming too much of her own power in fighting against the law power of the wall.
In other words, just sitting side by side like they were now felt very precious.
"I don't know if those starry sky beasts have really come from the other side..." Lin Xun suddenly sighed.
Xia Zhi said, "From what I can tell, these starry sky beasts are endless. Unless I can one day go to the ‘other side of the cosmos’ that you mentioned and completely wipe out the 'mother body' of these beasts."
"The mother body?" Lin Xun contemplated that revelation.
Xia Zhi thought for a while and said, "You can think of it as their progenitor."
Lin Xun suddenly remembered that whenever he was crossing the void, such as when he left the Ziyao Empire for the Ancient Wasteland Domain or when he was on his way back to the Ancient Wasteland Domain at the closing if the Supreme Realm, he had always been threatened by a huge and unimaginably strange beast.
That strange beast was wrapped in thousands of stars as it crossed the boundless void. Just its pair of eyes alone were as large as a pair of suns, emitting a cold and ruthless terrifying divine and blood-colored light!
Compared with its huge body, the stars around it were like inconspicuous beads...
At that time, Lin Xun even saw that in the depths of its eyes there was a pair of divine silver symbols that seemed to be burning. They were obscure and cold, as if they could swallow up people's souls, and were extremely terrifying.
Thinking about it now, Lin Xun suddenly realized a problem. Those starry sky beasts were all coming for him. Did this mean that the "strange beast" he had encountered when he was young was also a starry sky beast, and it had also come for him?
"Could it be that that guy is the mother body of the starry sky beasts?" Lin Xun's black eyes flickered, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became.
Suddenly, Xia Zhi stood up, her robe fluttering, and it seemed like she was gazing far into the starry sky.
"Lin Xun, the situation this time is not good, so you should retreat to the fort first." Her clear and pure voice had a hint of a rare solemnity.
Lin Xun looked up, and gradually, he saw a black line that resembled ink appearing in the depths of the starry sky, spreading at an incredible speed.
Wherever it passed, countless stars were submerged in it and disappeared.
Upon a closer look, the line across the starry sky was made by the starry sky beasts.
They were densely packed and countless.
It was like the night had fallen, swallowing up the distant space!
Lin Xun couldn't help but gasp as his pupils contracted. There must have been thousands of those starry sky beasts!
"Oh my God! What...what is that?"
At the same time, in various areas of the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, the old monsters were all startled. Their faces changed as they were shocked by this scene.
"Hundreds of starry sky beasts appearing is already a large-scale event, but now there are at least thousands!"
"It's over, how can we resist this?"
Many old monsters felt depressed, their hearts were heavy, and their hands and feet became cold. This kind of a beast tide was absolutely unprecedented and could make any Emperor collapse.
"Wait, everyone, look, they are rushing towards the remnants of Fangchun Mountain again!"
"It's true."
"Hahaha, that kid is really unlucky. He almost got into trouble last time, but this time, he provoked a larger army of beasts!"
"I'm afraid that woman will also be finished!"
Immediately, many old monsters laughed, and the depression that had accumulated in their hearts these past few days was swept away. They were full of energy as they gloated over Lin Xun’s misfortune.
"Don't you find it strange? Why are the starry sky beasts choosing that boy? Is it because this boy is very likely to become the only lotus on the Eternal Supremacy Path?"
An old Emperor had some doubts. All of this was too abnormal and weird.
When he said this, many Emperors were shocked and revealed changing expressions. Indeed, such an occurrence was too abnormal and incomprehensible.
Someone soon sneered, "Him? The only lotus? Haha, I only know that this boy will die this time!"
In the midst of discussions, in front of Lin Xun's fort, Xia Zhi held her bone spear as she exuded a murderous aura that soared into the sky.
Her figure was graceful, surrounded by dark light and shadow, and her robes rustled. In just an instant, she seemed to have turned into a dark god who had killed countless people.
"They...are really coming for me..." Seeing this scene, Lin Xun finally believed that Xia Zhi was right. The starry sky beasts would not give up until they caught him!
He took a deep breath and said, "Xia Zhi, leave now, quickly!"
His voice was extremely solemn.
However, Xia Zhi was indifferent as she stood in front and said, "I said that no matter who wants to hurt you, they must ask me first if I agree. Furthermore, they may not be able to defend against me.”
His voice was ethereal and clear, as calm as before, but it had an unquestionable firmness to it.
As she spoke, she raised the bone spear in her hand and continued, "This spear was born to suppress these beasts from the very beginning.
"To put it simply, this spear is their natural nemesis.
"Over the years, I have fought alone, and have killed thousands of starry sky beasts with this spear.
"The only difference now is that I have more enemies to cut down.”
Before she finished speaking, she rushed out, like a dark light, rushing across the distant starry sky, attacking the beast army alone!
She was incredibly efficient and decisive!
Battle Emperor Fengling, who had been anxious and worried for a long time, saw everything, and he was stunned when he saw Xia Zhi rushing out alone.
Was she really going to fight to her death for that kid?
An indescribable shock surged into his heart, and Battle Emperor Fengling blurted out, "Silly boy, go stop her!"
Lin Xun's expression flickered and he clenched his hands tightly, but in the end, he did not speak.
Xia Zhi would never be dissuaded from doing what she was determined to do!
Furthermore, this time she was fighting for herself, so how could she listen to what he said?
He knew her too well!
Because of this, when he saw Xia Zhi rushing up, Lin Xun suddenly felt indescribable anger in his heart, as if a volcano erupted in his heart, and his whole body trembled slightly because of it.
Along his cultivation journey, he became a famous figure in the world, and his combat power was even more outstanding than his peers in the ancient and modern times. He was truly invincible in this realm.
Unfortunately, he realized that even now, he still did not have the ability to protect Xia Zhi. Instead, because of him, she was going to fight to her death!
For the first time since Lin Xun started cultivating, he became extremely angry at his own incompetence!
In the distance, the first to block the beast tide was the law power from the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, which was like a surging tide, constantly attacking.
The beast tide that covered the sky and the sun suddenly became chaotic, and the invading formation was torn apart.
Even so, there were still many starry sky beasts taking advantage of the chaos and rushing towards the castle where Lin Xun was.
Xia Zhi also attacked at this moment, swinging the bone spear in her hand.
Boom——
The cosmos shook, and the roars and howls resounded. Each starry sky beast was fierce and raging, and crushed the void like crazy.
Xia Zhi rushed forward, looking incredibly small, but any opponent she targeted was instantly killed, with their bodies bursting and blood flowing.
The bone spear was like the spear of death, incredibly sharp and decisive, as it harvested lives.
However, there were too many starry sky beasts, and some of them were extremely powerful, comparable to the fourth and fifth realms of the Emperor Stage...
Xia Zhi rushed forward alone to stop them from approaching, giving people the feeling that she was like an ant trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a car.
Despite that, she seemed to ignore the imminent danger and rushed forward with all her strength. Her graceful figure was bathed in the bloody storm, never giving in, never retreating!
"Don't overestimate your own abilities!"
"This woman is so stupid. Does she really think that she can turn the tide with her own strength?"
"Anyway, the remnant of Fangchun Mountain is quite lucky. Before he dies, someone has actually put their own life on the line for him."
A wave of sneering and gloating voices sounded on the Great Wall of Thousand Daos, one after another.
The distance was too far, so Lin Xun couldn't hear them, but Battle Emperor Fengling could clearly catch it. For a moment, he was so angry that his face turned blue and his lungs were about to explode.
These old guys are such assholes!
Suddenly, Battle Emperor Fengling noticed that Lin Xun, who was standing in front of the fort, had a pair of bloodshot eyes, and his aura showed signs of madness.
He just stood there, staring at the fight in the distant starry sky, with a calm expression.
However, this kind calmness made Battle Emperor Fengling's heart tremble, because under that extreme calmness, there was an extreme anger!
Battle Emperor Fengling couldn't imagine how much torment and discomfort Lin Xun must be feeling at this moment to make him so angry.
What do you think?
