Chapter 839: Chapter 834 Fate 4

"Bro, you can finally rest for a while!"

A golden crack suddenly appeared in the void beside them, and the Master of Cloudlight stepped out, looking exhausted.

"I’ve been chasing you so hard that my legs almost fell off!"

From the crack behind him, a squad of guardians followed. Each one still had an indifferent look, but their eyes, now fixed on Lin Xin, no longer held the same coldness as before but were filled with profound respect.

In this world, only the strong can earn respect.

"What’s the matter? Didn’t we just part ways?"

Lin Xin turned and looked at the Master of Cloudlight.

"Greetings, Your Highness, the Saint Heir."

The captain of the guardians stepped forward, his steps steady as though he walked on solid ground.

"The great calamity is approaching. Our Sect Hierarch of the Chanting Star Cult wishes to meet you. What is your opinion on this...?"

His demeanor was exceptionally respectful.

Previously, Lin Xin became the Saint Heir of the Chanting Star Cult relying on his background and potential. But now, he had become a true overlord.

He had become a terrifying entity on par with the Dao Seekers.

In the entire void, heavenly realm, and abyss, apart from the Taoist Ancestor, the Dao Seekers were the strongest.

However, most of the Dao Seekers lived in seclusion, cultivating the Tao, solely aiming to surpass the Taoist Ancestor.

Only a few occasionally paid attention to the conditions of the myriad realms; hence, Dao Seekers were extremely rare.

Universal Heavenly Venerable, Wuyanzun, and Jiu Se Divine Lord, such terrifying beings at the level of Dao Seekers, each was enough to suppress numerous worlds.

Lin Sherie, the Divine Monarch of Sherie, had only recently truly stepped into this realm.

Though he just entered the Heavenly Venerable Realm and had yet to ascend the stars, his strength was indisputable—it mattered not if he wasn’t in the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

"The Hierarch of the Chanting Star Cult?"

Lin Xin was slightly surprised.

"Very well, I’ve long wanted to meet your Hierarch too."

He glanced around, feeling somewhat strange. He wasn’t in the central battle zone but in another distant star domain.

Frowning slightly, Lin Xin waved his hand and grasped the air.

A blood-red crack instantly tore open in front of him.

Boom!!

Blood-colored polluted air burst out, gushing from the crack.

This was the scene of the Seventh Heavenly Realm.

The Master of Cloudlight and the guardians watched without blinking.

The Seventh Heavenly Realm!

Even when the Master of Cloudlight exerted all his strength, he couldn’t open this realm’s crack alone.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xin tore it open with a single swipe.

"Incredible!"

The Master of Cloudlight gave Lin Xin a thumbs-up.

"Let’s go, we’ll talk after we head back."

Lin Xin had no time to spare, eager to return to the Nether Realm.

The great catastrophe was imminent. He had to refine the Nether Realm into his body quickly to protect the Land for God Worship as much as possible.

Unlike other Heavenly Venerables, his greatest strength was his physical body at that moment.

This body had been enhanced to an unprecedented level; now, even a casual sword strike, without using any sword technique or True Yuan, already possessed the power of a Constellation Level Heavenly Venerable.

Not to mention the terrifying power of the Supreme Jiuyue Divine Wind Sword.

As Lin Xin traversed the skies of the Seventh Heavenly Realm, he pondered carefully.

He had begun to suspect.

His previous memory losses were likely side effects mentioned by the First-Generation Sword Master inherited from.

The Supreme Jiuyue Divine Wind Sword, such a terrifying sword technique, could not be without side effects.

Whether it was the accumulating power of the Sword of Joy or the triple undying effect of the Sword of Rage,

not to mention the Soul confusion and hypnosis of the Sword of Sorrow, all were terrifying killing moves.

Every sword technique had its own unique features, rather than differences in power.

The Sword of Sorrow, though it didn’t drive Lin Xin to suicide in the end, was still extraordinarily powerful. If the white shadow of the First-Generation Sword Master had directly attacked after Lin Xin was hit by the Sword of Sorrow, even if it couldn’t kill him, it could greatly injure him.

Unfortunately, he was too confident.

So, the outcome had been decided in the end.

Sssshhh!!

In the blood-red Seventh Heavenly Realm, Lin Xin casually tore open another crack, revealing the tremendously dark void beyond and then plunged in head first.

The Master of Cloudlight and others quickly followed suit. Even Heavenly Venerables could be affected if they stayed too long in such a terrifying and hostile environment as the Seventh Heavenly Realm.

What greeted Lin Xin and his entourage was the central battle zone headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance, the mothership within the void Golden Pupil Warship.

A Heavenly Venerable’s avatar stationed there was originally sitting on the top of the mothership, eyes closed, resting.

Suddenly sensing the space being torn apart, and moreover, so close to the mothership, he was instantly furious and opened his eyes to rebuke.

However, at the first sight of the Seventh Heavenly Realm’s crack, he shuddered all over and promptly suppressed his rebuke.

Looking closely, the leader of the group was a man over seven meters tall, dressed in white robes, handsome, shrouded in a layer of faint red glow.

On his body were three pairs of arms, and a dark hole on his chest where numerous wriggling creatures could be seen faintly.

This Heavenly Venerable was Moji Venerable of the Four Seas Fairy Mountains, who had strained all his potential to just barely ascend to the Heavenly Venerable level. His actual combat ability was far inferior to a newly-promoted Longshe Heavenly Venerable.

That’s why he volunteered to guard the mothership.

Upon seeing Lin Xin and his group, his expression quickly shifted from cold to enthusiastic.

"Ahead, is that the Divine Monarch of Sherie from Green Lake Mountain?" he transmitted from afar.

"I am." Lin Xin replied indifferently, "I need to use the long-distance Teleportation Formation immediately, can this be arranged?"

"Of course! Of course!" Moji Venerable hastily agreed, having the authority.

He then noticed this famed Divine Monarch of Sherie had brought members of the Chanting Star Cult, including Bai Yun the Whale Emperor, a more powerful Heavenly Venerable.

His heart couldn’t help but tighten.

This figure had reached the stage of using Heavenly Venerables as subordinates, indeed a top-tier Great Saint looming over the coming catastrophe!

After agreeing, Moji Venerable quickly performed a series of decrees.

On the side of the Golden Pupil Warship Mothership, an oval-shaped aperture gradually opened, with blue fluorescence flickering within, as immense energy gathered in a precise way, activating various runes.

Buzz!!!

The oval aperture suddenly illuminated with blue light, giving rise to a pale blue oval light sphere.

"The Teleportation Formation is ready, Divine Monarch can proceed."

Moji Venerable announced promptly.

"Hmm."

Lin Xin responded softly, stepping into the light sphere.

The Master of Cloudlight and others followed quickly.

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

Deeper into the void, the Tenth Heavenly Realm—River of Decay.

The gray-black waters flowed like a snake, winding into the distance, disappearing from sight. Here lay the terminus of the River of Decay.

The entire Tenth Heavenly Realm was small, akin to a miniature world.

The eerie River of Decay mysteriously appeared from nowhere and flowed to an unknown end, a gray-black long river.

Fang Yu, draped in a huge black cloak, stood by the riverbank as the wild wind tossed his black hair sideways.

He stood quietly, entirely shrouded by the cloak, devoid of any unusual aura, his form completely unchanged. Standing by the riverbank, he looked like a typical man in black.

"This is the end of the River of Decay..." Fang Yu squinted, closely watching the small river surface before him.

The River of Decay, the most terrifying part of the Tenth Heavenly Realm, was different from other Heavenly Realms. This river was pure, possessing only one eerie ability.

That is—decay.

No means of protection could resist the corrosion of the River of Decay.

Anything close to it would experience accelerated aging.

A second is a year.

Gurgle.

Suddenly, a bubble emerged on the river’s surface.

Small, round, like those exhaled by a tiny fish, even smaller than a child’s fingernail.

But the appearance of this bubble made the tranquil Fang Yu’s pupils shrink.

"It’s coming!"

Gurgle, gurgle...

Bubbles gradually multiplied.

They appeared in the water one after another.

Fang Yu stared intently at the bubbles’ spot.

That small part of the water surface, bubbles were increasingly numerous.

Soon they began to expand in all directions.

Soon, the entire surface of the River of Decay sprouted a multitude of small bubbles.

The bubbles naturally emitted a thread of invisible aura...

"Finally, it’s here."

Fang Yu’s gaze turned complex.

"Saint Master, the keeper of the river has appeared and is about to open the valve." A shadow suddenly appeared a kilometer behind Fang Yu.

"Shouldn’t we...?"

"Ignore it." Fang Yu said calmly. "Blood Parrot’s information was misleading. The river keeper isn’t merely a keeper; he’s also a spokesperson of the Great Universe’s will. If we stop him, although it will delay things, the resulting outbreak would be more severe later."

"Understood."

The shadow nodded slightly.

Whoosh...

Over the River of Decay, countless invisible winds began to gather quietly.

Various energies gradually released and mingled together.

Rumble!!!

A black lightning bolt flashed across the sky.

"The calamity has begun..." Fang Yu looked up, his voice deep.

On the far side of the River of Decay, a beam of white light broke through the bank, tearing through space, shooting into a black rift, and disappearing in an instant.

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

Central Star Domain, Baijiu Star.

Inside the star core, within a pure white, radiant palace emitting Purification Light.

Lin Xin and his group were being warmly received by the palace lord.

"Welcome, Your Highness the Saint Heir, to Baijiu Palace. The Sect Hierarch has been waiting for a long time."

A burly, armored bald man with glowing white eyes politely bowed to Lin Xin.

"I heard the Divine Envoy is here too?" The Master of Cloudlight asked nonchalantly from behind Lin Xin.

"Cloudlight, you better watch your words; the Divine Envoy has been in a terrible mood recently." The burly man looked at the Master of Cloudlight and smiled slightly.

"Hah! Am I supposed to be afraid of him?" The Master of Cloudlight waved his big hand, "Were it not for the Hierarch’s sake, I’d have... uh, scolded him till his teeth were all over the ground!"
