Chapter 679: Chapter 463: Holy Soul Seal, Heading to the Sword Immortal Temple
Bang—
Lin Chang’sheng smashed the heavy stone gate with a punch and flew out, standing tall in the vast sky.
"I wonder just how powerful this Celestial Thunder Godslaying Slash really is?"
Lin Chang’sheng mused to himself.
He already knew the might of the Void Divine Essence Technique; not only could it refine Power of Divine Soul, but it also greatly increased his speed in absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Lin Chang’sheng summoned a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, Primordial Power surging in his hand as he urged it on.
Crackle—
In an instant, dark clouds gathered in the air around him, Celestial Thunder swirling violently.
It looked like a torrential storm was about to pour down at any moment.
"Go!"
Lin Chang’sheng swung his blade, channeling all the Power of Celestial Thunder into the Blade Aura, making it even more ferocious.
The Blade Aura seemed formed from hundreds of tribulation bolts, its force overwhelming.
Rumble—
A single thunder-infused Blade Aura struck the distant mountain range, obliterating everything within a radius of ten miles in the blink of an eye.
Countless peaks collapsed, stone fragments flying everywhere, presenting a scene of utter annihilation.
"Not bad. With a single slash, I can harness the force of Celestial Thunder, making my Blade Aura even more domineering!"
Lin Chang’sheng thought with satisfaction, quite pleased with the blade’s destructive power.
He then stowed away his Spirit Treasure, dismissed the Disguise Technique, and began inscribing a Teleportation Array.
Once the array was complete, Lin Chang’sheng stepped right in.
In the next instant, Lin Chang’sheng was back inside Longyang City.
And as Lin Chang’sheng’s cultivation skyrocketed, the Teleportation Array could cover longer and longer distances.
He could now cross over ten thousand miles at a time.
Arriving at the Divine Pill Pavilion, Lin Chang’sheng found the place in complete uproar.
"No idea who that mysterious powerhouse is! Seriously, to be able to slaughter all those sect elders—bet it’s for something in the Divine Pill Pavilion auction, right?"
"Yeah! Elders from the Blood Robe Sect, Celestial Orchid Sect, and Heaven-Suppressing Sect all died—what kind of cultivation does it take to pull that off?"
"At minimum, Tribulation Crossing Stage. Who else could wipe out those sect elders so easily, without leaving a trace?"
"Yeah! Must be some loose cultivator, or a hidden sect expert!"
...
As soon as he set foot in the Divine Pill Pavilion, all Lin Chang’sheng heard were the endless rumors about the attacks on the major sects.
If they ever found out it was all Lin Chang’sheng’s doing, he wondered how they’d react.
"I knew you wouldn’t die so easily!"
Lin Chang’sheng had just entered when Gu Shan walked up to him.
Gu Shan really had been worried Lin Chang’sheng might have died out there.
After all, even a late Mahayana Stage powerhouse had been killed by a mysterious figure. Lin Chang’sheng had just hit Early Stage of Mahayana—not exactly safe odds.
"You’re not dead yet, so why would I be?!"
Lin Chang’sheng shot back, unimpressed.
Looks like Gu Shan had been waiting here at the Divine Pill Pavilion just to tag along to the Immortal Cave Mansion!
This guy was obsessed with the Immortal Cave Mansion.
"Wait, you—broke through again?"
When Gu Shan realized Lin Chang’sheng had reached the Middle Stage of Mahayana, his jaw nearly hit the floor.
Lin Chang’sheng had just gotten to Early Stage recently, and now he was late Mahayana? That’s some crazy luck, huh?
Did he get another stroke of fortune?
At this rate, Lin Chang’sheng might be catching up to him soon!
"Just lucky, that’s all."
Lin Chang’sheng replied simply. No way was he going to admit to practicing evil techniques and devouring Divine Souls for his breakthrough.
"Alchemist Lin!"
Not far away, Zhu Xuan saw Lin Chang’sheng, and ran over smiling; clearly, she hadn’t expected him back either.
"Alchemist Lin, those two from the Immortal Martial Hall are still sticking around our Divine Pill Pavilion. Say they won’t leave until they see you!"
Zhu Xuan announced as she came closer.
That caught Lin Chang’sheng off guard. The Immortal Martial Hall duo really were like leeches—clingy as hell. Looks like he had to go see them.
"Take me to them."
Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t intimidated by those two, but found them annoying—like flies he couldn’t swat away.
With Zhu Xuan leading, Lin Chang’sheng entered a guest room.
Given the Immortal Martial Hall pair’s status, Zhu Wenhuan had arranged a place for them to stay.
"Finally decided to show yourself? If you didn’t come out soon, I was going to torch the whole Divine Pill Pavilion!"
As the door opened and Guo Yunchu set eyes on Lin Chang’sheng, she burst out angrily.
But Lin Chang’sheng ignored her, staring straight at Xu Tiancang.
"Elder Xu, I’ve made myself clear. There are still some matters here I need to sort out—I can’t leave for the Immortal Martial Hall just yet!"
Lin Chang’sheng said again.
"If that’s so, we won’t force the matter. If you don’t mind, why don’t we accompany you? That way, if anything happens on the road, we can lend a hand. What do you think?"
Xu Tiancang was obviously dead-set on getting Lin Chang’sheng to the Immortal Martial Hall, leaving Lin Chang’sheng mildly exasperated.
He was planning to seek out the Immortal Cave Mansion—what, was he supposed to drag them along?
Then again, after thinking it over, Lin Chang’sheng found it wasn’t such a bad idea. Another extra hand is another bit of help. And Xu Tiancang was absolutely no threat to him anyway.
If they tried anything sketchy, Lin Chang’sheng could smash them on the spot.
"No way! With me watching over Alchemist Lin, there’s no need for any of you!"
Lin Chang’sheng hadn’t even opened his mouth, but Gu Shan cut in to shut it down.
He’d waited ages for this Immortal Cave Mansion—if the Immortal Martial Hall folks tagged along, they’d snatch a share too, wouldn’t they?
"Oh?"
Xu Tiancang heard Gu Shan’s words and immediately fixed him with a sharp look.
"Futian Province, Gu Family?"
Xu Tiancang saw through Gu Shan’s background in one glance.
The Gu Family might be strong, holding half of Futian Province, but compared to the Immortal Martial Hall, it was nothing.
