Lin Xun was under the impression that Wei Mingzi possessed extraordinary combat techniques given his intelligence and wisdom.
It never crossed his mind that he would also perform the Star-Gather!
Then, a flash of realization came to Lin Xun’s mind. Regardless of what Wei Mingzi’s background is, he is still the 100th opponent in the Hundred Battles Secret Realm and he has to fight according to the rules of the Omega Secret Realm.
In just a split second, Wei Mingzi was slaughtered under Lin Xun’s powerful attack. Before he died, he screamed like a madman, “I don’t accept it! I don’t accept the result—!”
He vanished from the arena in a shower of light.
Lin Xun didn’t feel anything as he watched him disappear. As Wei Mingzi has said, he is just a wisp of a remnant soul suppressed and sealed in the secret realm. If he tried to trick me and occupy my body to escape then he deserved to die. Also, isn’t death a sort of relief for Wei Mingzi who has been sealed here for who knows how long?
As for the supreme opportunity that Wei Mingzi spoke of, Lin Xun didn’t believe it.
Suddenly, Lin Xun noticed an unusual glow where Wei Mingzi had previously stood.
He inched forward and saw a speck of light. It was a snow-white feather around the size of a baby’s hand.
As he held it up in his hand, it erupted in a flash of light and vanished from his palm. But the same snow-white feather appeared in his mind.Lin Xun increased his vigilance. But after cautiously studying for a long while, he couldn’t help but scrunch his brows in puzzlement. What exactly is this thing?
Wei Mingzhi must be the one who left this thing. But it has to be extremely unusual if it could appear in my mind-sea.
Lin Xun wasn’t the least bit happy to find such a treasure. On the contrary, he was extremely wary knowing that Wei Mingzi was the one who left it.
The only thing that reassured him, for now, was that the feather only emanated a sacred and ethereal aura and hadn’t undergone any changes yet.
As the 100th battle came to an end, the arena suspended in space suddenly erupted with a shower of dazzling light. It was like a divine phenomenon.
At the same time, the cold, empty and emotionless voice rang again—
“Dao Seeker, you have successfully passed the level and won all one hundred battles. A reward will be given.”
Lin Xun trembled inwardly and his eyes brightened. It’s finally here!
Immediately, the rain of light around the arena began to merge to form three incomparably bright floating spheres of light.
“Dao Seeker, you have the opportunity to choose one of these treasures as the reward for passing this level. If you fail to choose within a quarter of an hour, it will be regarded as you giving up on the reward.”
Lin Xun was surprised to hear that there was a time limit!
He didn’t dare to waste any time. He hurried forward to carefully examine the three dazzling spheres of light. As he could only choose one of them as a reward, he was particularly cautious.
Inside the first sphere was a pill. It glistened with a purple hue like a gemstone and was shrouded in a hazy mist. There was a hole spewing out black and white qi and producing the roars of a dragon. It seemed particularly mysterious.
When Lin Xun laid eyes on the pill, a description of it appeared in his mind. Yin-Yang Orifice Pill, helps cultivators below the Spirit Sea Stage open up their minds, break cultivation obstacles and raise their cultivation by one level!
Lin Xun trembled inwardly and his face lit up. It can open a cultivator’s mind and break obstacles to help break through to the next cultivation level! How can such an amazing pill exist in the world?
As far as Lin Xun knew, no alchemist in the empire could produce such a remarkable pill!
Lin Xun was instantly tempted. He knew that even if he didn’t consume it, it could be sold for an earthshaking price that could make the world go crazy.
Drawing a deep breath, Lin Xun tried to move his eyes away from the pill to examine the second sphere of light. Although the Yin-Yang Orifice Pill was extremely mysterious, it had little practical use to him.
He could break through to the next cultivation level at any time and reach the Earth Dipper Stage. He wouldn’t have any use for the pill any time soon.
Inside the second sphere of light was a treasured armor. It was entirely silver and inscribed with various mysterious patterns such as clouds, mountains, rivers and auspicious creatures. It emitted a soft, silvery glow and looked extraordinary.
Silver Light Star Suppressing Armor!
It can be equipped by cultivators below the Spirit Sea Stage and it will assist them in their cultivation. It can nourish their spirits and temper their body, blood and qi. It also has an unbelievable defensive power and can withstand the full strength attack of a Spirit Sea cultivator!
Hsssss!
Lin Xun couldn’t help inhaling sharply. What a powerful treasure! When equipped, it is not only beneficial to one’s cultivation, but one won’t need to be afraid of Spirit Sea cultivators!
Most importantly, any cultivators below the Spirit Sea Stage can wear it! Doesn’t that mean even ordinary people can enjoy the treasure’s mysterious uses?
Lin Xun believed that the treasure would no doubt cause a sensation in the world if it was leaked onto the market. Countless cultivators would fight over it!
Lin Xun was tempted again. He had never thought that the rewards for passing the third level of the Great Azure Cloud Path would be so magical. Both the Yin-Yang Orifice Pill and the Silver Light Star Suppressing armor are peerless treasures!
They can’t be found anywhere in the entire empire!
He drew several deep breaths before he turned to the last sphere of light. His eyes brightened once again.
However, he only saw a broken copper fragment floating inside the sphere. It looked simple yet it exuded an extremely terrifying oppressive power! It was as though it wasn’t a piece of copper but an unshakable sacred mountain!
Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp Fragment, one of the nine treasures of the great wilderness! It is inscribed with the marvelous secret art, Nine Heavenshaking Destruction Art, and it contains unfathomable powers.
Lin Xun was completely shaken. His mind was firmly drawn to the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp Fragment.
It’s this!
The previous two treasures, Yin-Yang Orifice Pill and Silver Light Star Suppressing Armor, both tempted Lin Xun but only the fragment of the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp set off an instinctive desire from him. Lin Xun instantly knew he wanted the fragment!
Xue Jin had once remarked that, despite Lin Xun possessing heaven-defying powers among his peers, he only had a few powerful combat arts.
Lin Xun had also thought about the same issue. He was determined to search for a combat art suitable for himself.
The opportunity was right in front of him now!
Even the name Nine Heavenshaking Destruction Art suggested that it was a unique secret combat art without the need for a weapon.
The fact that the secret art was stored in the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp Fragment further implied that it was extraordinary.
Lin Xun would never forget that the description mentioned the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp was one of the nine treasures of the great wilderness. Although it wasn’t clear what the so-called nine treasures of the great wilderness were, it was no doubt an extraordinary item since it appeared in the Omega Secret Realm.
If he possessed a fragment of the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp, he would undoubtedly have an opportunity to gain insight into the treasure and perhaps find the true Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp!
When Lin Xun made the decision, his vision blurred and everything before him faded like an illusion.
“Dao Seeker, to challenge the fourth level of the Omega Secret Realm you will need to advance to the Spirit Sea Stage first.” As the ice-cold voice reverberated in his mind, Lin Xun’s eyes snapped open. He looked around and found that he was in his own room.
While Lin Xun was in deep thought, he found a piece of rusty, mottled metal lying next to him. The piece of metal seemed to have been split open. It had an irregular shape and was an ordinary gray color.
However, Lin Xun had trouble picking up the piece of metal!
Huh?
Lin Xun was bewildered. He had gathered his strength and was just barely able to lift it. He reckoned that it weighed at least one ton!
It’s only around the size of a coin yet it’s unusually heavy. Lin Xun felt the item was even more mysterious.
There was no doubt that it was a fragment of the Heavenshaking Ancient Stamp!
Lin Xun recalled the description of the treasure, and he burned with excitement. He released a wisp of consciousness to carefully examine the secret art inscribed inside. It was at that moment when his mind-sea throbbed with indescribable pain. It felt as though he was being cut with a saw. He couldn’t help but grunt in agony.
He was horrified to find that the sacred and ethereal feather was undergoing a strange change in his mind-sea. It was shining brightly and releasing a terrifying power.
“Hahaha, fellow Daoist, thank you for your help. To express my gratitude to you, I have decided to grant you a supreme opportunity!”
A burst of loud laughter rang out from the white feather. It sounded delighted and carefree and was precisely Wei Mingzi’s voice.
Lin Xun’s expression abruptly changed. That guy isn’t dead!?
Boom!
His mind-sea tumbled and Wei Mingzi’s figure suddenly emerged from the white feather.
“What opportunity?” Lin Xun tried hard to calm himself.
“Well, didn’t I tell you? Of course it’s your body! It will allow me to ascend to the pinnacle of the Great Dao! Think about it, with my wisdom and soul and your flesh and blood, this world will belong to us in the future!” Wei Mingzi sounded deranged. He had glorified the fact that he wanted to borrow Lin Xun’s body to be reborn!
That guy is indeed not a nice person!
“Hahaha, come on, lend me your body. From now on, I will be you and you will be me. I will help you fulfill all your unfulfilled wishes one by one. Who would grant you such a supreme opportunity in this world?”
Amidst crazy laughter, Wei Mingzi’s soul body erupted in a blaze of golden light. The light completely drowned Lin Xun’s mind-sea. He intended to obliterate Lin Xun’s spirit!
An indescribable painful sensation swept over him like a tidal wave. The pain was so agonizing that it made his vision darken. He almost couldn’t bear the pain. He frantically drew deep breaths and hissed through gritted teeth, “Old thing, it’s too early for you to be this happy!”
