Chapter 730: Paying Back Kindness with Revenge (1/2)
Lin Yu and Lin Xuan had attracted some attention when they left the central world and undid their seal over the North Sea. Immortals had swiftly gathered to observe them from the dark, and greed gripped around them tight when the pair of connate-grade treasures emerged.
It was unheard of for such treasures to appear after a cultivator’s tribulation, but here they were, right in front of them!
Boom!
Before they could make a move, a great disturbance rocked the sky. An enormous pattern of yin and yang fish took shape in the air, spanning the North Sea and Nephrite Major!
Phenomenon of ascension!
The brothers’ phenomenon of ascension was a pair of yin and yang fish!
……
Dao City.
“Dammit!” Alarmed, Wanfeng hurriedly barked out a series of orders. “Everyone stand ready! Prepare the crystal cannons! Kill anyone who dares make a move against Lin Yu or Lin Xuan!”
“That won’t be necessary, I’ll go protect them,” volunteered a rascally voice as a figure disappeared with a flash.
……
“They’re both geniuses whose phenomenon of ascension spans a major,” someone called out. “Kill them, kill them now!”
The brothers were of the Lin Clan, but everyone saw them as members of Dusk Province and Lu Yun’s followers first and foremost.
Although Dusk Province had taken in an impressive collection of talent in the form of the Qing, Lu, Chen, Xue, and Yin Clans, Chen Xiao and Qing Buyi were the only great geniuses who had ever emerged from those clans.
Dusk boasted of no other geniuses whose phenomenon of ascension spanned an entire major. The combined phenomenon of the Lin brothers, though, covered Nephrite Major and the North Sea, a fact which put many ill at ease.
“Halt! Who dares raise their hand!” boomed a threatening voice. A green-haired man made for quite the sight in the sky, appearing out of nowhere to stand firmly in the void, his presence as keen and steady like a javelin’s. Scanning his surroundings with eagle eyes, his overwhelming presence unfurled in all directions to intimidate every immortal in the area.
“How dare you cretins think of intervening in the tribulations of Lin members? You court death!” His eyes were intensely sharp and his voice boomed like a giant bell, keeping those in the area at bay. His presence made even dao immortals retreat with ashen faces.
“Origin dao immortal!” a panicked voice shouted. “The Lin Clan possess a flawless origin dao immortal!”
The eighteen flawless origin dao monster spirits from Levitating Island had shaken the world of immortals and unnerved all denizens. With the former nine celestial emperors abdicating their thrones and the new generation of celestial emperors not yet matured, the world had no way of dealing with the monster spirit faction.
But now the Lins possessed a flawless origin dao immortal as well??
“The Lin Clan lives up to their reputation as the top clan of the world, alright,” an immortal clucked his tongue in surprise. “Although they suffered from House Donglin’s secession, their foundation remains unaffected…”
“Wait, something’s not right. His origin dao immortal force hasn’t settled yet, there’s still a trace of arcane dao immortal force. He’s clearly plucked an origin dao fruit only recently...” A crippled dao immortal voiced his observation. “Rumor has it that that has appeared in the immortal emperor’s tomb in the central world, as well as crimson long-haired monsters… Did he take that opening to pluck his dao fruit?”
