Chapter 764: Chapter 759 Unsealing Part One

The tip of the longsword suddenly pierced through the stone pavement, even cracking the surrounding ground.

People nearby could feel a tremor under their feet.

All of a sudden, everyone was somewhat stunned.

No one guessed that it was a real sword—how could a paper sword possibly pierce through the hard stone pavement?

"Stop! Stop right now!!"

The police, shocked, drew their guns and aimed at Lu Li.

"We are from the Lasalle City Police Department..."

Boom!!!

The leading officer hadn’t finished speaking when the ground suddenly started shaking.

Lu Li stood coldly on the spot, where the sword blade had pierced the ground, beams of white light burst forth, quickly spreading around.

"Oh! My God!"

The surrounding civilians were all dumbstruck, not reacting for a moment.

The sky also slowly darkened at this time.

A green warship, hundreds of meters long, slowly emerged above the entire city.

All the people were in an uproar, and some sensed something wrong and quickly turned around to flee.

Lu Li looked up at the warship.

A green light suddenly condensed below the warship, the light growing larger and brighter.

All of a sudden, the entire ball of light fiercely fell down.

Boom!!!

All of Lasalle trembled violently.

The green light struck the ground and burst open.

Countless buildings collapsed due to the tremors, and those nearby were vaporized in the blink of an eye.

Those further away were hit by flying rocks and debris, torn apart like rag dolls, instantly dismembered and incomplete.

In the center of the most bustling district, the explosion of green light spread out a ring of green ripples, seeming slow, but spreading very quickly.

All the civilians touched by the ripples, those screaming in flight, staring dumbfounded, or even firing guns in return,

were instantly killed by the explosion.

Countless resentful souls floated up, absorbed by the warship in the sky.

In a few breaths, all of Lasalle was reduced to ruins, numerous buildings collapsed in the tremors, and all the mortals affected by the green light were entirely killed.

Schick, schick, schick, schick!

Beams of green light descended and revealed the forms of Lin Xin and others.

"Honored Master," Lu Li stepped forward to salute.

"You’ve worked hard," Lin Xin nodded in response.

"Isn’t this a bit too cruel?" one disciple hesitated slightly.

"Great deeds require inevitable sacrifices," Lin Xin spoke indifferently. He looked down at the deep hole created by the sword blade.

"This is the spot, Lu Li and Huai Yang follow me down; everyone else stays here, no one is allowed near."

"Yes!"

All responded in chorus.

Lin Xin and Princess Huai Yang Zhou Yan, with Lu Li, jumped down the dark hole together.

The hole was pitch black inside, with only a slight white light filtering down from above.

All three had extraordinary vision, unaffected by the darkness, and looked straight down.

The wind whistled past their ears, and the bottom was faintly visible now.

The bottom was also an altar, circular in shape, with two figures sitting cross-legged, completely motionless.

Seemingly hearing the sound of their approach, the two figures suddenly opened their eyes.

"Who!"

One of them, clad in shimmering silver armor, directly drew a massive sword from his back, his body steaming with wisps of white light.

The other figure, dressed in black, moved stiffly and a bit more slowly, but each movement seemed imbued with a heavy, powerful sensation.

"Zhou Yan, this is up to you."

The three gently landed on the altar, Lin Xin, without looking at the two, motioned for Lu Li to follow him and casually struck the center of the altar.

Thump! Debris flew everywhere.

Instantly, another opening cracked in the altar, revealing a bottomless entrance.

"Yes."

Zhou Yan stayed behind, drew her longsword, and blocked the two approaching figures.

Lin Xin and the other person jumped into the new hole again.

This time, the depth was much less, just over a hundred meters, until they reached the bottom.

Whew...

The two gently landed on the dark ground.

This was a small hall, less than fifty meters in both length and width.

The surrounding square-shaped walls were carved with numerous monster and alien bas-reliefs, the floor littered with countless chains, amounting to hundreds, almost completely covering the ground.

All the thick black chains were connected to the walls, converging in the center.

There, a gaunt figure sat on a throne.

His hands, feet, neck, and body were tightly bound by chains as thick as arms.

At that moment, there was total silence; he sat on the seat, motionless.

"Is this the Corpse King Jidu?"

Lu Li frowned.

"No, he is the Flying Yaksha King, the first general under the Corpse King," Lin Xin had thoroughly investigated the situation and understood the details well.

His gaze now moved toward the end of the small hall.

There, a heavy black metal door was tightly closed, hung with a large bunch of locks carved with talismans of different styles from the East and West.

"I’ll leave this to you; I’m going directly to find Jidu."

Lin Xin said flatly.

"Yes."

Lu Li’s expression remained impassive as he drew the massive sword at his waist and slowly walked toward the slowly swaying gaunt figure on the throne.

Bang!!

Lin Xin pushed open the gate with one hand, and the lock above shattered instantly under a tremendous force and broke, flying apart.

Even though he was not in his own original body, endowed with the power of an Earth Immortal, the strength of this body far exceeded what those few locks could withstand.

"How audacious!"

A hoarse roar came from the gaunt figure behind him, somewhat muffled and unclear.

Then, there was a series of metallic clangs.

Lin Xin did not even turn to look; he just kept walking forward.

Behind the gate was a spacious hall, though it was somewhat empty.

He walked to the center of the hall, looking towards a small altar ahead.

The altar was entirely white jade in color, with a man standing on it.

A bald man, both of his legs were encased and buried in the stone of the altar.

Lin Xin carefully sensed the presence of this man.

Indeed, there was no soul, and his appearance was not entirely Eastern in style; he also had a Western demeanor.

The bald man stood completely naked, seemingly indifferent to his bare body, only his eyes sharp like a hawk’s, staring at Lin Xin as he entered.

"Are you here to kill me or to save me?"

He asked directly.

"Do not open the Seal!!"

Suddenly, from the side of the hall, a Dark Gate burst open, and several figures quickly rushed in, shouting loudly.

Lin Xin briefly turned to look; it was unexpectedly Yin Mingzhi, Yuan Xiaojing, and others.

How they had arrived here was a mystery; they were clearly still in Great Xia before.

"A Teleportation Formation?"

Suddenly, he sniffed a scent from these people, carrying a whiff of spatial Formation fluctuations.

"Is there actually a Teleportation Formation here?"

Yin Mingzhi and Yuan Xiaojing were both panting heavily, their faces pale, clearly having sprinted here with all their might, a large group of people following behind them.

"After the Nine Heavens Profound Lady, truly remarkable," the bald man said with a smile. "To think such precise divination methods could exist. It’s funny that I thought it was merely trivial..."

"Are you saying, they divined that I would come here to open the Seal?" Lin Xin narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.

"But even if you calculated it, do you think that just you can stop me?"

"Of course not!"

Yuan Xiaojing was panting heavily, catching her breath, and stepped aside.

Someone Lin Xin did not expect came out from behind her.

"Daddy!"

It was actually Chen Ying!

She widened her eyes, somewhat disbelievingly looking at the scene before her.

Her father stood with his hands behind his back in front of the altar, his expression cold.

On the other side, a man whose lower body was buried in the stone altar was smiling at everyone.

The various fantastical claims Yuan Xiaojing had told her, despite the incredible scenes revealed one after another, still left her half-doubting.

Especially that her own father would release the terrifying, undying Corpse King Jidu.

She absolutely did not believe it.

What kind of person was her father, Chen Ji? Didn’t she know him?

Just an ordinary Taoist involved in cultivation, even if he knew a thing or two about Martial Arts, how could he be involved with anything divine?

And Corpse King Jidu, something as unimaginable as undying, she was even less convinced.

"What are you here for?"

Lin Xin furrowed his eyebrows, but only slightly.

Chen Ying was just the daughter of this body, not his own descendent.

If the other party thought he could be blackmailed with this, they were mistaken.

"Daddy..." Chen Ying also didn’t know what to say for a moment. She was unfamiliar with all of this.

Lin Xin, however, stopped looking at her and walked straight towards the man whose feet were encased in the altar.

As his foot just lifted, a twisted pale yellow mist suddenly appeared under it, immobilizing Lin Xin on the spot.

The yellow light even began to spread rapidly over his body and soon enveloped him in a sphere of light.

"Prague!!"

Yuan Xiaojing and others immediately exclaimed in delight.

In a corner behind Lin Xin, a laid-back man with a scruffy beard suddenly appeared.

Dressed in a dark long coat, his hands in his pockets, wearing a rounded top hat, a lazy smile hung on his lips as he watched the unfolding scene.

"Seems I can’t avoid making an appearance..."

"Still playing tough even after you’ve shown up."

In another corner, a stunning woman in a tight, light purple armor emerged.

In her hand, she held something resembling a lantern-shaped hammer, her armor and cape, and even the sparse visible skin, were all engraved with faint, intricate patterns.

"Zhihong is here too!"

Yin Mingzhi was also pleasantly surprised.

But was quickly pinched hard by Yuan Xiaojing, nearly crying out in pain.

"Sister Zhihong!"

Yuan Xiaojing sweetly called out to the armored woman.

"Now’s not the time for reunions, let’s deal with him first!"

Zhihong nodded slightly, her purplish-red eyes seriously focused on Lin Xin, now increasingly encased in yellow light.

"My instincts tell me, this man is very strong! Very, very strong!!"

"With Sister Zhihong and Prague here, even if he is formidable, it’s impossible for him to unlock the Seal today!"

Yuan Xiaojing was utterly confident in the two.

"Don’t be careless."

Prague pulled out a cigarette, gently rubbed it against his clothes, and lit it, putting it in his mouth.

"But my ’Huang Zhang’ can buy us a good half a moment, let’s use this time to think of a way to handle these people."

"Prague, you inherited my blood, why do you still side with these people." The bald man interjected at this moment.

"Why not come to my side and rule the world together?"
