Chapter 785 - 780: Labyrinth II

Chapter 785: Chapter 780: Labyrinth II

His body shook, and a red cloud rose under Lin Xin’s feet, just about to soar into the sky.

Bang!

In an instant, he suddenly felt an invisible heavy chain holding him down, and the red cloud dissipated instantly.

"Trying to leave!?"

The Soul Sect members had already surrounded him.

Black rune chains slowly appeared around Lin Xin, forming circles of runes, encircling him tightly.

Six lights of Earth Immortals radiated, and the sky was filled with soul sounds as if chanting for the dead.

Each Earth Immortal condensed a soul seal above their heads, slowly rotating.

"Get out of my way!!" Lin Xin was eager to chase someone, his body rushing out, causing huge shock waves to spread out.

But he couldn’t increase his speed; his face turned cold in an instant.

After finally tracing Lin Yaoyang, if he lost him again, who knows where to find him next time.

"Deputy Sect Master Wen, what do you mean by this? Are you opposing my Green Lake Mountain?!"

He looked at the man with the black crown, his face darkened.

The Soul Sect’s Deputy Sect Master Wen was recorded in the Green Lake Mountain Jade Talisman, and he found his name with a simple search.

Deputy Sect Master Wen glanced at the place where the Ten Thousand Bull King fell. Though strong, if the Soul Sect wanted to deal with it, they would have done so long ago. They had waited for the sake of the bigger picture!

Unexpectedly, this Green Lake Mountain kid came and ruined everything!

Anger filled his heart, but considering it was a person from Green Lake Mountain, he dared not act rashly.

If it were someone else, he would have killed him on the spot!

But now, he suppressed his anger because of the other party’s identity.

"Lie Shan nephew, if there’s nothing more, please leave our Soul Sect Star Domain quickly. My sect can handle this alone."

The Soul Sect, as a local tyrant, was faster in investigating someone’s identity.

But precisely because of clear investigation, he dared not make a move.

Even without the Taoist Ancestor, Green Lake Mountain, with twenty Heavenly Venerables, wasn’t comparable to other sects.

"My sister was kidnapped and threatened within your Soul Sect’s area. As members of the Heavenly Alliance, you allowed the culprits to escape and instead blocked my rescue?"

Lin Xin’s gaze grew colder.

"Deputy Sect Master, are you colluding with Demon Spirits and Shadow City?!!!"

His last sentence was a sudden low shout, shocking all surrounding Soul Sect cultivators.

The few Earth Immortals couldn’t help but tremble and looked at Deputy Sect Master Wen.

Colluding with Demon Spirits and Shadow City, this charge was risky even for the Soul Sect.

Deputy Sect Master Wen’s heart was full of rage.

Just an Earth Immortal, daring to threaten him openly.

In hundreds of thousands of years, he had never been so humiliated!

"Green Lake Mountain, quite an audacity!!" His eyes had a slight cold gleam. "Even your master Long Snake wouldn’t dare to be so rude before me!"

Knowing that most Heavenly Venerables of Green Lake Mountain were entangled by the Heavenly Demon Army Master and couldn’t intervene, he finally felt a trace of killing intent!

"I’ll say it one more time, move!!"

Lin Xin’s hand slowly reached towards the sword hilt behind him.

After stacking attributes to a damage level of 310,000 points, he had never fought someone with full force.

"Take him down!"

Deputy Sect Master Wen couldn’t suppress his killing intent anymore and shouted angrily. At this point, he had to act, even if it meant turning to the Heavenly Demon Army Master!

A circle of high-rank Soul Sect cultivators immediately formed hand decisions.

This group of cultivators was at least Nascent Soul rank and included Human Immortals and Earth Immortals, dismissing low-rank Void Demon Spirits outside the circle.

The remaining high-rank Void Demon Spirits had scattered in chaos, and without the Heavenly Demon Army Master’s manipulation, only low-rank Void Demon Spirits crazily attacked everyone.

Layers of rank halos from the cultivators spread out like canopies, shielding them from Demon Spirit attacks.

The Soul Sect cultivators grouped in fours, stepping on flying swords, with strange silver-black corpses appearing behind them.

Lin Xin’s face turned ice-cold, gripping the hilt of the sword emerging from the black hole behind him.

Clang!!

The Joy Sword abruptly unsheathed.

A red sword light shot out, splitting into countless pink threads before him, shooting towards surrounding cultivators.

From afar, it looked like a big pink umbrella blooming out of thin air.

To avoid being noticed, Lin Xin maintained his previous speed and power, still suppressing the attribute-enhanced speed and power for a final blow.

But even so, it was terrifyingly dreadful.

The thousands of sword threads from the Joy Sword attacked all Soul Sect cultivators simultaneously in an instant.

Though each thread’s attack wasn’t strong, combined with the dreadful traits of the Joy Sword, the effect was indeed terrifying.

The news of him defeating Xing Pengfei had spread, but except for a few in Shadow City, others didn’t know he won relying on Jiuyue Divine Wind Sword’s traits.

A series of clattering sounds filled the air as all cultivators either blocked or deflected Lin Xin’s all-out assault.

Mysterious energy channeled into the Joy Sword, and Lin Xin’s body began slowly covering in white bone armor again.

Hahaha!!

The white smiling mask on the sword laughed sharply.

"Kill! Laugh! Eternity in this world, exists only in Ultimate Bliss!!!"

His aura rapidly inflated like a balloon.

In an instant, he surpassed Origin Earth of Earth Immortals, then broke through Life Candle and reached Heavenly Venerable level in the blink of an eye.

Holding the sword horizontally before him.

Lin Xin’s whole body was gradually covered in white bone armor, leaving only one left eye exposed.

Swish!

He suddenly raised the sword high, pointing to the sky.

"Jiuyue Divine Wind Sword·Second Strike."

His only exposed left eye glowed with a pink light.

Invisible air currents swirled madly around him, like a massive force field rapidly gathering.

The sky darkened quickly, countless clouds crashing down, merging in a mass, converging at the Joy Sword’s tip, and drilling in.

"Godly Form!!"

Lin Xin slowly closed his eyes, lowering the blade.

Instantly, everything fell silent.

Countless scarlet extreme lights exploded from his hand, as if a new sun had suddenly risen.

Billions of sword lights burst out, interweaving into a colossal red net.

The net bore a single pattern, that eerie smiling face.

The massive smiling face laughed sharply, suddenly swallowing the Soul Sect Deputy Sect Master preparing to strike.

Gulp!

It swallowed him whole.

Boom!!!

The smiling face abruptly exploded into countless pink petals, scattering around.

Lin Xin opened his eyes suddenly, finding no pink petals around. Deputy Sect Master Wen still floated in the air, with Soul Sect members still surrounding him, but no one was channeling energy into the formation. It felt like nothing had happened, just an illusion.

Strangely, everyone, including Deputy Sect Master Wen, stood still, motionless.

Clang.

Lin Xin sheathed the Joy Sword behind him and flew away without looking back.

Deputy Sect Master Wen quickly snapped out of the sudden transformation, reaching out but inexplicably feeling a strange frustration blocking him, preventing any action.

He felt something was missing deep in his heart, taken by the opponent, but couldn’t determine what.

"Did...he just leave without doing anything?"

As the Soul Sect Deputy Sect Master, unlike Green Lake Mountain’s grand sect, his Heavenly Venerable position came through countless opportunities and struggles.

"Did he really do nothing and just leave?"

He wondered as the moment was too fast for him to respond.

The pink light had instantly covered thousands of miles.

"No...something’s wrong!!"

Deputy Sect Master Wen suddenly realized that his soul had silently been gouged out! The part representing joy in seven emotions and six desires had been taken.

"This is...a soul attack!!" Deputy Sect Master Wen’s face changed dramatically.

If a mortal lost a part of their soul, they’d become comatose, let alone a cultivator.

For a cultivator, every rank forms a perfect self-circulating system. Missing a loop could lead to chaos, especially where cultivation relied on soul control.

Soul attacks were common in low ranks but could still steal an opponent’s soul even in high-level battles, an almost unimaginable feat.

As he thought, numerous loud explosions sounded around him.

Four or five Soul Sect cultivators around him exploded directly.

Boom!!

An Earth Immortal also self-destructed!

"Retreat immediately!!" he shouted urgently.

Bang!!

A thunderous roar, and in panic, Deputy Sect Master Wen felt boiling inside, his cultivation exploding like water in hot oil.

With a crash in his ears, he lost all awareness.

***********************

Over the barren land.

Countless black Demon Spirits soared, rushing towards a rapidly flying red sword light.

No one could resist where the sword light pointed. Corpses and bloody remnants scattered, the sword light shredding everything within a hundred meters radius, turning nearby Void Demon Spirits into pulp.

Lin Xin was in the sword light, with a cold expression, guided by an array spirit girl floating beside him.

Suddenly, he paused slightly, feeling a large warm current surge inside, realizing a significant amount of free attributes had somehow entered his body.
