Chapter 13 (1/2)

The drop of blood soaked the paper red when it landed on the page.

Hum…

Lin Xun was struck with sudden dizziness. It was like his spirit freed itself from his body and got to a completely new world with unlimited heaven, and picturesque mountains and rivers.

At the tip of the cloud-kissing mountains, there stood a majestic man who was looking beyond the blue sky with hands behind his back.

With his robe and hair flapping with the howling wind, he seemed to be aloof from the world and about to fly away with the wind.

Boom!

Then he moved, quick as a flash. With a wave of his hand, the rosy clouds all turned into a glaring light beam that ripped through the blue sky and shot into the vast emptiness beyond the universe.

Boom***

Deep in the emptiness in universe, a swirling portal was cracked open by the light beam.

Swirling at a high speed, the portal was just like an abyss that devoured all. It released a power so horrifying that it distorted the space.

Countless stars were dragged towards it as if they were worshipping the portal. They rotated, roared and rumbled around the swirl, creating an appalling and dazzling scene in the emptiness beyond the blue sky.

Ripping the blue sky, shaking the universe and breaching the portal to emptiness with a single strike! Without actually seeing it, who would believe that there truly existed a practitioner so mighty to create tremendous power with a single wave of hand?

Lin Xun was astounded deep in heart. This was the second time he had witnessed a scene so terrifying. The first time was when he escaped the mine prison, an old and mysterious hand enveloped in purple flames hiding the sky with devastating power!

It was at that time that he realized the true power of a mighty practitioner, which made him more determined for the journey.

But compared with this, that hand pressing down the sky was simply not worth mentioning.

Boom!

Hardly had he recovered himself, Lin Xun felt a loud bang in his ear, which made his Qi and blood boil, his heart tremble, and he was uncomfortable to the point of coughing up blood.

Just then, deep in the swirling portal beyond the universe, a huge beast claw ripped the emptiness and pressed down violently from the blue sky. Covered with icy scales, it was so enormous that the mountains were like small gravels before it, and it unleashed a power mighty to destroy all.

“I have already opened the Gate of Stars. Who in this world can stop me from entering the eternal realm? Get lost!”

In his cold voice, a flash of light appeared suddenly with a flick of his finger from the majestic figure standing on the top of the mountains. It was too fast for Lin Xun to make it out. Then the terrible beast claw vanished, and blood poured down in sheets over the earth in a daunting manner.

But that was not finished yet. Soon a towering figure dashed out from the Gate of Stars, which was dazzling and divine like a flaming sun that shined over the world.

“Ha ha ha, even an astral god is sent out to stop me from seeking Tao. What a move!”

At the tip of the mountains, that majestic figure gave out an uninhibited laughter, presenting a condescending air that overlooked all heroes around the world.

Lin Xun was dazzled by the huge sound, his Qi and blood in turmoil and his weak body trembling violently. He tried to resist it, but his mind was so messy and buzzling that he couldn’t see anything.

It was like having a nightmare that he couldn’t wake himself up from.

After an unknown period of time, Lin Xun saw in a trance that the heaven broke like a cobweb, exposing one black hole after another. The harsh flames fell like meteor stream from the outer space, incinerating rivers and mountains and destroying all.

It was like a doomsday! The heaven fell with the devastating flames flooding over the earth like a furnace of chaos scorching all, killing every living creature.

Mountains collapsed.

Seas roared.

Vegetation turned to dusts.

Living creatures died out.

It was like the doomsday had really come.

Only that majestic figure on the tip of the mountain watched all this in silence with hands behind his back, aloof and lonely.

After a long time of silence, a long sigh echoed through heaven and earth “Fortune is not with me!”

At that moment, seeming to be touched, deep in Lin Xun’s heart rose a mixed feeling of despair, disappointment, regret and frustration.

Just then, beside the majestic figure stood a bronze coffin about 33 meters long which just appeared out of nowhere. Its surface was engraved with numerous intricate and mysterious patterns.

He stepped forward and opened the coffin.

Just as Lin Xun thought he was about to bury himself in the bronze coffin, the mighty man took out a scroll and an inscribing pen and threw them into the coffin. Carrying the coffin on his shoulders, he then stepped away.

Lin Xun was shocked as he found that those two were the very treasures Master Lu had given him.
