Blood was still pouring from the gaping wound in Lin Fan’s chest. His hair hung in disarray, and his once handsome face was deathly pale. Su Bai’s abdomen had been split open as well! Both of them were bound to black stone pillars by layers upon layers of chains, like prisoners awaiting slaughter.

The moment Lin Xun took in this sight, his eyes turned bloodshot and the veins at his temples throbbed violently! He could not find words to describe what he felt.

Rage, like molten lava erupting from the depths of the earth, surged through him, causing his entire body to tremble faintly. He dared not imagine what cruel torment his son and disciple would have suffered if he had arrived even a breath later.

When Lin Fan and Su Bai called out to him in excitement, a sharp pain tore through his heart. He drew a deep breath, forcing down the storm within him. “I’ve come to take you home.”

His voice was hoarse as he spoke. The words seemed to be forced from his chest. The fury and killing intent roaring within him were already on the verge of losing control.

Boom! Boom!

The chains binding Lin Fan and Su Bai shattered inch by inch, crumbling into dust. Together with his Green Wood Dao Body, Lin Xun rescued Lin Fan and Su Bai. As dao power flowed from his palms, their wounds healed instantly, vanishing without a trace. Unfortunately, they had already lost too much blood, so their faces remained deathly pale.

Moreover, Ji Changyun and Ji Changshan had attempted to strip away their innate talents. Although they had failed, the damage that had been inflicted was severe.

Fortunately, they were alive! That alone was enough.

“Lin Xun?!” Ji Bowen cried out, his face twisting in disbelief. “How could it be you...?”

At this moment, the other core figures of the Ji Clan seemed to awaken from a dream. Shock and disbelief flooded their faces. In their calculations, Lin Xun should have been escorted here by Ji Guizhen, Gaoyang Li, and Jiang Jue from the Eternal True Realm.

Who could have imagined that instead, Lin Xun would slip into Fengqi Sacred Mountain under cover of night and suddenly appear before them like this?

Ji Changyun and Ji Changshan, in particular, wore exceedingly grim expressions. Only now did they finally understand that the terrifying killing intent they had sensed earlier had come from Lin Xun.

Moreover, that killing intent had not been meant to strike them at all. It was used to drive them back, allowing Lin Xun to seize the opportunity to rescue Lin Fan and Su Bai. Clearly, his plan had succeeded.

However, this was, after all, the territory of the Ji Clan. Faced with this sudden reversal, neither Ji Changyun nor Ji Changshan nor Ji Bowen lost their composure.

“Why wouldn’t it be me?”

Lin Xun turned around slowly. His bloodshot eyes were icy and terrifying, while madness-tinged killing intent coiled between his brows. Since stepping onto the Eternal Path, this was the first time he had been driven to such fury.

His gaze swept across everyone present as his voice rang out, clear and absolute, “Today, every last one of you will die!”

Each word fell like a thunderclap, reverberating through the night sky. Ji Bowen and the others merely sneered, their smiles cold and laced with pity, as though listening to the ravings of a madman. After all, this was the Ji Clan’s territory!

To them, Lin Xun’s arrival was indeed unexpected, but in their eyes, it was no different from courting death!

“Everyone, capture this beast tonight, and the fate of our clan will be rewritten!” Ji Bowen declared, his eyes blazing.

Boom!

Ji Changyun and Ji Changshan could no longer restrain themselves and struck first. Moments earlier, they had been forced back by Lin Xun’s killing intent, their faces still burning with humiliation. Now, both were desperate to reclaim their dignity.

“Overbearing fool!”

White-haired yet vigorous, Ji Changyun swung the black wooden staff in her hand and smashed it through the air.

The void detonated. Countless dazzling lightning blades burst forth, sweeping toward Lin Xun like a raging storm. Each blade carried violent lightning laws, fierce and tyrannical, like bolts of heavenly thunder crashing down from the firmament.

“Die!”

At the same time, Ji Changshan’s willow-like beard fluttered as he unfurled a scroll. As it spread open, it transformed into a vast starry sky. Countless enormous stars revolved within it, radiating resplendent light and exuding an aura that seemed capable of suppressing the eternal heavens themselves.

The Celestial Star Dao Chart!

Two perfect Law Transcendence Eternals struck together. Their combined might tore apart the ink-black night, illuminating the vast firmament. The entire Fengqi Sacred Mountain trembled in response!

Despite that, Lin Xun’s true body neither dodged nor retreated. Instead, he stepped forward. Rumble!

In that instant, all the fury and murderous intent he had been suppressing erupted completely. His towering figure burst forth with billions of obscure dao light, deep as an abyss, dark as hell, and terrifying beyond imagination.

As he surged forward, the densely packed lightning blades sweeping toward him detonated one after another, as if caught in a raging storm. Before his overwhelming might, they were as fragile as paper, utterly unable to halt his advance.

“Damn it!”

Ji Changyun’s expression changed drastically. She swung the black wooden staff in a frenzy, shattering the void and sending it collapsing. Waves of lightning laws surged forth like a roaring ocean as wind and thunder raged across the sky.

In an instant, the battlefield became a kingdom of lightning, wind and thunder roaring as boundless destructive force ran rampant. Even so, it still appeared utterly inadequate.

Lin Xun charged straight through, crushing the raging ocean of lightning laws head-on. It collapsed with a deafening roar, dispersing like a receding tide. Almost simultaneously, he snatched the black wooden staff from Ji Changyun’s grasp. Power surged from his palm and fingers, and the Eternal weapon shattered with a thunderous boom.

“Open!” Ji Changyun screamed, her body blazing as she unleashed a forbidden secret art. Her aura skyrocketed to unprecedented heights.

However, Lin Xun reached out again, the power surging from his palm utterly unstoppable. In an instant, he crushed all of Ji Changyun’s Eternal Laws. Radiant fragments were still raining down when his hand had already clamped around her throat.

“How can you be so strong...?” Ji Changyun’s eyes widened in sheer terror.

Everything had happened too fast. From the moment she attacked to the instant she was captured, less than a breath had passed. Every technique had failed her, and her Eternal weapon had been destroyed. Now, she herself was completely suppressed, without the slightest chance to resist!

Crack!

Consumed by rage, Lin Xun did not waste a single word. His hand tightened, snapping Ji Changyun’s neck, and he directly extracted her primordial spirit, stuffing it into the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron.

He would not allow that vicious old witch to die so easily! The cruel torture inflicted upon his son Lin Fan had filled him with boundless hatred for her.

Almost simultaneously, as Lin Xun subdued Ji Changyun, his Green Wood Dao Body struck down Ji Changshan as well.

First, Ji Changshan’s Celestial Star Dao Chart was seized by the Green Wood Dao Body and crushed into dust with a single grasp. Before Ji Changshan could retreat or evade, the Green Wood Dao Body vanished in a flash and reappeared directly above him, striking down with a palm. Ji Changshan’s eternal body exploded inch by inch like a string of firecrackers, flesh and blood bursting apart in midair. Even his primordial spirit was torn free and forcibly suppressed by the Green Wood Dao Body.

The entire process was not only ruthless and domineering but was also executed in one seamless motion! Strictly speaking, Ji Changyun and Ji Changshan, these two ancient monsters, were brought down almost simultaneously, completely crushed and stripped in a single exchange.

The bloody spectacle shocked Ji Bowen and the others to the core, leaving them staring in disbelief. Who could have believed that two Law Transcendence Eternals could fall so miserably?

Ji Guizhen, upon arriving in the Eternal True Realm, had at least known of Lin Xun’s world-shaking feat of single-handedly sweeping through the Eternal Divine Clans of the Ninth Heaven Domain.

In contrast, Ji Bowen and the rest knew absolutely nothing of it! Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that Lin Xun had already stepped onto the Eternal Path.

The unknown was the most terrifying thing of all. A chill seeped into their bones, and their hearts trembled uncontrollably.

“Retreat!” Ji Bowen roared.

Almost simultaneously, his aura erupted violently. With a wave of his hand, an ancient jade cauldron appeared, radiating a deep, boundless Divine Rank law aura.

As the cauldron emerged, the Divine Rank laws that had long shrouded Fengqi Sacred Mountain were drawn toward it, falling under Ji Bowen’s control and surging straight toward Lin Xun.

Boom!

The raging Divine Rank laws transformed into a vast, blazing sea of divine light, sweeping over Lin Xun and his Green Wood Dao Body.

“Destroy!”

Lin Xun’s eyes burned crimson, like a wrathful divine sovereign. With a thunderous roar, he hurled his fist forward.

That punch unleashed the power of the Nirvana Law to its utmost, as though it was meant to shatter barriers spanning the ages and bore open the shackles of time and space, advancing with an unstoppable, invincible might.

Boom!

The vast, blazing divine light was crushed in an instant, torn apart by a massive rift. At the end of that rupture stood Lin Xun’s outstretched fist, radiant like a beam of light and carrying a force that seemed capable of annihilating everything in its path.

Ji Bowen’s expression changed drastically as he resisted with all his might.

Amid an earth-shattering explosion, the jade cauldron formed from Divine Rank laws was sent flying, letting out a shrill, anguished wail. Ji Bowen was blasted away in the same instant, and before he could regain his footing, cracks spread across his body and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

A single punch had torn through the suppressive power of Divine Rank laws, and left even a Law Transcendence Eternal like him gravely wounded!

Ji Bowen was utterly horrified. His scalp went numb, his mind teetering on the brink of madness. How could Lin Xun...be this powerful?!

At that moment, piercing, agonized screams suddenly rang out.

”No!”

“Old ancestor, save me!”

“Ahhh!”

The group that had been following Ji Bowen sensed disaster and fled at once, scattering in all directions. However, Lin Xun’s Green Wood Dao Body swept after them and struck. With a single flick of his sleeve, endless sword qi poured down like a torrential storm, engulfing every major Ji Clan figure who had yet to step onto the Eternal Path.

Nearly all of them appeared to have been subjected to death by a thousand cuts, their flesh torn into fragments, their deaths utterly horrific. Although none of them had reached the Eternal Stage, they were all core figures of the Ji Clan, cultivators at the Immortal Stage or above. Yet now, they were mercilessly cut down, no different from a patch of weeds.

Their screams, laden with terror and unwilling fury, lingered in the air, but the battlefield had already been reduced to a horrifying expanse of blood and death.

This scene made Ji Bowen’s eyes split with rage and his beard and hair bristled. “Lin Xun! I swear, I will tear you apart, skin you alive, and grind your bones to dust!” he roared, utterly frenzied with fury.

In just a few blinks of an eye, Ji Changyun and Ji Changshan, both Eternal beings, had been suppressed and slain, and not a single one of the clan’s major figures was spared. Only Ji Bowen remained.

How could he not be enraged?
