Chapter 591: Chapter 586 Departure II

"Lin Sherie!?"

Ling Shaozhi was the first to recognize the other party.

"When did you get in?!" A hint of killing intent flickered across his face.

Lin Sherie calmly looked at the several people in front of him, but his gaze slowly drifted to the dark area behind everyone.

"The aura of a Demon Spirit..."

A dense murderous intent flashed through his brows and eyes, and that murderous aura even faintly materialized into thin red traces.

"Colluding with Demon Spirits, causing chaos in the Execution World Meeting, plotting against the two Family Heads, if you stop now I can still leave you all a whole corpse."

His voice was ice cold, the sound waves subtly vibrating the entire Protective Shield, making people’s hearts tremble.

At this moment, a complex and regretful glint flashed through Lin Shangxiu’s eyes.

The Lin Family cannot be ruined in my hands!

With a smile on her face, her eyes swung between clarity and control, but her heart was twisting in turmoil. Since she noticed something was wrong these days, she had been struggling.

Now, seeing that it’s truly complete control and enslavement of the Family Head, far from the so-called peaceful evolution they had spoken of, fear and regret suddenly mixed together in her heart, clogging and pressing down.

"It’s a trap... Run!!"

She suddenly lunged forward, the black orb in her hand flying out, smashing toward Lin Xin. The black orb was different from the ones before, its center faintly revealing specks of white gold light.

"Seeking death!"

Yun Kai roared furiously, suddenly reaching out to grab her back.

Swish!!

A black glint flashed by.

Lin Shangxiu’s body trembled, her chest and abdomen brutally pierced. Her body fell heavily to the ground in front of Lin Xin.

"Run... Escape!"

The orb rolled onto the ground, slowly bumping against Lin Xin’s boot.

Lin Xin’s expression remained unchanged as he looked down at the woman at his feet.

"Now you’ve added the grave sin of plotting against a Lin Family Branch Family Head. Even if Lin Shangxiu is guilty, she should die by the hands of our own main family."

He lifted his head.

"Taking into account prior events, I sentence you all to death, your souls to be completely annihilated. What do you say, sir?" He lifted his gaze, looking towards a dark corner within the Barrier.

Ling Shaozhi was enraged, just about to speak.

Hum!!

Suddenly, a light burst forth, the entire Barrier violently shaking, with everything around coming to a complete standstill.

All turned to gray, losing their original colors.

Lin Yaoyang and Qian Konghun, who were being eroded, now completely froze, maintaining their initial postures.

But this didn’t mean that Yun Kai and the others had no sensation.

They could still feel and see everything that happened, only that except for their own thoughts, nothing else was under their control.

Shock and fear appeared in everyone’s eyes.

"This is... the Polar Region!! Human Immortal!!"

The black orb in Ling Shaozhi’s hand trembled slightly, which would have fallen if not for being suspended.

Family Head of the Duanqing Family, Kong Qi of the Kong Family, and Yun Kai all revealed looks of shock and anger, their gazes towards Lin Xin completely changed.

"How could a Human Immortal-level powerhouse appear in such a place!?"

But before they could ponder further, an even greater disaster suddenly unfolded.

Roar!!!

A furious lion’s roar erupted from a corner of the Protective Shield.

Silhouetted in the darkness, a massive shadowy figure slowly emerged. It was a gigantic Void Shadow Lion.

Black flames enveloped its body; only the pair of blood-red eyes on its head looked fierce beyond measure, fixing Lin Xin with a death stare.

Roar!!

The Void Shadow Lion’s body expanded, growing ever larger and more profound.

Soon, it pushed against the Protective Shield, expanding it in all directions.

Ten meters, fifteen meters, twenty meters, thirty meters!!

The massive thirty-meter Void Shadow Lion loomed over the diminutive Lin Xin below.

"Everything in this world follows the law of cause and effect. The nature of the universe has its beginning and end."

Lin Xin spoke softly, with a gentle white glow slowly appearing in his eyes.

"Yin and yang, life and death, transform myriad things."

He lightly grasped the Red Flower Sword’s hilt, his body slightly bent forward.

Howl!!

The Void Shadow Lion exploded with a roar, turning into countless black threads rushing at him.

"Illusionary... Thunder Emperor!!"

In an instant, Lin Xin’s eyes shone brightly white, red Sword Light burst forth like a blazing red mini-sun, blossoming from his hand.

Ding!!!

Numerous clashes of Sword Light and black threads produced ear-piercing screeches.

An enormous and peculiar Rune rapidly woven by the red lights appeared.

The Rune suddenly flared with blue electrical arcs.

Clang!!

Six blue discs with lightning emerged, forming a giant cube, instantly locking all the black threads in the center.

Every disc was suffused with a faint blue-black lightning, inscribed with ancient runes representing the Primordial Demon God Thunder Emperor.

In the void, delicate blue petals fluttered and scattered, encircling the cubic configuration of the six discs.

All the scattered black lines were forcibly condensed, as the shadowy lion form reemerged within the cube.

It roared, desperately trying to break free from the confinement.

But to no avail.

The translucent blue discs, each represented an aspect of the Primordial Demon God Thunder Emperor.

When united on all six sides, they were indestructible, symbolizing the ultimate kill of the Rushing Thunder Sword Technique, the Illusionary Thunder Emperor—one hundred and eight forms combined into the most deadly sword move devised by Lin Xin, in harmony with his Sword Dao.

His longsword dangled downwards, its blade flickering with crawling blue-black arcs, as a blue vortex slowly revolved behind him.

A massive giant with six faces emerged gradually from the vortex, its void shadow slowly taking form.

The final sword form of the Rushing Thunder Sword Technique and the shadowy lion locked in a tremendous standoff.

The power of the shadowy lion far surpassed that of the Human Immortal Lin Xin had slain before. It roared furiously, struggling against the cube’s walls.

Potent waves of force rippled out from the cube in concentric circles. Yet the cube remained motionless, continuously contracting as if to squeeze the life out of its captive.

The white light in Lin Xin’s eyes grew increasingly intense.

He snorted coldly and looked towards the others who were immobilized, his sword blade flicking lightly. Instantly, several red beams shot towards Ling Shaoyi and the others.

Hisss hisss hisss!

Effortlessly, the so-called Family Heads, like Ling Shaoyi, had their throats marked with lines of blood.

They revealed a strong unwillingness in their eyes, but it was futile.

"This is absolute power, absolute strength," Lin Xin coldly observed everything.

Under his control at the Human Immortal Second Realm Polar Region, the fates of these prominent Family Heads of the World Extermination Assembly hung by a single thought.

Pu pu.

The divine light in the eyes of the three controlled Family Heads slowly faded. Their seals would naturally pass on to the next secret bloodline bearer in their clan. Without the ceremony for a smooth transition, however, they would likely suffer many side effects and pay a considerable price.

Without the Decree Handprint linked to the seal, along with the mental fluctuations and specific rituals.

One couldn’t connect to the true seal and could only rely on the explosion of strength from their secret bloodline.

At such a level, mere Solidification within the Polar Region, many experts Lin Xin had killed before had been powerless to resist.

Thus, these so-called Family Heads, if not given enough preparation time, simply couldn’t unleash the terrifying power of their seals.

Noticing that all these people had been killed, the shadowy lion felt something was amiss.

"Behind me are the Six Pillars..... If you kill me, no one will be able to save you....."

Instead, it was the first to falter in this deadlock.

The confinement of the Illusionary Thunder Emperor had shrunken to an absurd degree.

"The Six Pillars?"

A flicker of confusion passed through Lin Xin’s eyes, only to be replaced by ruthlessness.

"I don’t care about any Six Pillars. I only know that everyone involved in this scheme must die!"

He suddenly raised his palm.

"Thunder Emperor!"

In an instant, numerous red lights burst from his right shoulder.

He executed the Rushing Thunder Sword Technique with all his might at the hundred and eighth layer.

In a flash, one hundred and eight thousand swords became untold beams of blinding radiance.

Each beam was a path of the sword, the method almost like light in speed, reaching a level impossible to dodge.

The red light dazzled the shadowy lion’s eyes, yet effortlessly penetrated the lightning discs, bombarding the lion’s body relentlessly.

"Night Vast!" The lion roared as a single horn emerged on its chest. Amidst being continuously sliced and pierced by swathes of red light, it exploded its horn into a thick black mist that covered all of its vital points, attempting to protect its body. It began to gradually block out the red light.

At that moment, all the red light converged into one, pinpointing the center of its chest, right where the horn was.

One hundred and eight thousand swords, all focused at a single point in a flash, combined with Lin Xin’s formidable physical strength, forcefully burrowed in.

Boom!!

The shadowy lion exploded without even a whimper, shattering completely.

The blast wave, a black color, unfurled like a wave, decimating the cube, its shockwave reaching out in all directions.

Lin Xin’s expression changed as he lunged forward, hoisting Lin Yaoyang into his arms while reflexively grabbing Qian Konghun. He flashed away rapidly.

With a crisp crack, the Polar Region shattered, broken apart by an overwhelming external force.

The terrifying black shockwave spread in an instant, resonating to a far distance.

Boom!

Everything within several tens of meters sunk abruptly, forming a deep basin several meters down.

The barrier instantly broke, and the closest secret bloodline guards took the brunt of the force, exploding into a cloud of blood without as much as a whimper.

Yun Kai Lin Shangxiu and the others’ bodies were also instantly demolished.

Further away at the temple entrance, where some remnants of the World Extermination Assembly stood, they too screamed in agony, flung about by the shockwave and violently colliding against the solid surroundings, falling dead.

Lin Xin, too, was hit by the massive explosion’s shockwave, feeling an intense burning pain that swept across his back. A taste of blood rose suddenly to his throat but was swiftly swallowed back down.

Fortunately, his body’s attributes were so strong that the few internal injuries that briefly appeared swiftly began to heal themselves.

The shockwave seemed as if it could penetrate everything, killing all life within several tens of meters.

But Lin Xin and the other two alone were spared.

His physical strength was immense, meaning that the horrifying blast only broke through his defense and inflicted minor injuries.

The other two were unscathed, protected from the impact by Lin Xin.

Rolling on the ground for a few turns, Lin Xin struggled to keep himself up before he slowly rose to his feet.

Lin Yaoyang and Qian Konghun were both long unconscious, the earlier black sphere invasion interrupted, having already clouded their minds.
