Third Old Zhu had returned!

Early in the next morning, when Lin Xun woke up from meditation, he was informed of the news. He walked out of Mind Cleansing Hall and indeed saw that Third Old Zhu had returned.

However, Third Old Zhu was completely different from the past. It was as if he had been reborn. His figure was still tall, built, and mighty like a mountain, but he looked much younger than before. His rough skin was radiating with an indescribable power and beauty.

As he stood there, he was oozing with superiority as though his powers could suppress the universe. When he glanced around, his cold eyes seemed to be harvesting souls.

Undoubtedly, after several months of cultivation in the Cyclic Derivation Tower in the palace, he made a breakthrough and ascended to the Cyclic Derivation Stage!

Third Old Zhu had only a few years of his lifespan left, but after his breakthrough, his lifespan had been extended by at least five hundred years. During that period, he would longer be troubled by death.

Lin Xun was very glad to see Third Old Zhu return. Mind Cleansing Peak had gained a powerful great cultivator.

Thank you.

Third Old Zhu solemnly saluted and bowed to Lin Xun.

Without Lin Xuns recommendation and help, he would never be able to train in the Cyclic Derivation Tower in the palace. To him, the breakthrough not only meant that he had become stronger, but more importantly, he had also gained a new life and would no longer be troubled by the problem of his lifespan!

It was the gift of life!

Im glad you are back! Lin Xun smiled brightly.

On the same day, as the head of the Lin Family, he held a clan meeting for the first time in the Mind Cleansing Hall!

The participants of the meeting included Lin Beiguang, the patriarch of the North Light Lin clan, Lin Huaiyuan, the clan leader of the North Light Lin Clan, and other influential figures of the North Light Lin Clan.

In addition, there were Lin Zhong, Spirit Vulture, Xiaoke, Third Old Zhu, Blood Thorn, Yang Ling, Old Diao and others.

Even Xiao Tianren from Feiyun Village was invited to participate in the meeting.

The hall had a solemn atmosphere. Lin Xun sat in the main seat and, although he looked young, after years of training and experience, he exuded calmness and authority.

He was a young rune founder, a teacher of Qinglu Academy, the specially-appointed rune master of the Rune Master Association headquarters and the Divine Workshop...All those various identities and haloes of light made Lin Xun appear more extraordinary and transcendental.

At least, in the Forbidden City, no one dared to underestimate him including his peers and the powerful influential figures.

All eyes were on Lin Xun, and no one dared to show the slightest bit of disrespect.

Lin Xun was undoubtedly qualified to take charge of the Lin Family and make decisions for the entire Mind Cleansing Peak!

At the meeting, Lin Xun kept everything concise. He appointed Spirit Vulture as the Great Guest Steward Elder and gave him the power to make decisions for all matters on Mind Cleansing Peak.

Xiaoke was specially appointed as the great steward of Mind Cleansing Peak, and she was under the direct command of Spirit Vulture.

Third Old Zhu and Lin Zhong were appointed as clan guardians and would directly serve Lin Xun.

Lin Xun also made corresponding arrangements for the influential figures of the North Light Lin Clan, and there was no objection.

That was the result of Lin Xuns discussion with Spirit Vulture last night. Following the rise of Mind Cleansing Peak, it was time to promulgate new rules and systems.

Even Xiao Tianren was appointed as a steward to specially take care of the affairs of the villagers of Feiyun Village.

Your Fourth Grandfather

After the meeting, Patriarch North Light went to find Lin Xun alone. He said with a complicated expression, Although he did something wrong, you shouldnt harbor hatred towards his clansmen. After all...they are also descendants of our Lin Family.

Lin Xuns fourth grandfather was Lin Feifeng, the relative who had tried to imprison and kill Lin Xun with the Four Coiling Dragon Pillars.

Fifth Grandfather, dont worry. I wont go too far. But they must take responsibility for the mistakes they made in the past, Otherwise I wont have the confidence of the public. Lin Xun nodded.

Okay, thats good. Patriarch North Light let out a sigh before he turned around and left.

He seemed to be feeling a little down and depressed because of Lin Feifengs death.

However, there was nothing that Lin Xun could do about it. He had almost died at the hands of his Fourth grandfather!

On the same day, Lin Xun left Mind Cleansing Peak with Xia Zhi and returned to Qinglu Academy.

He had taken care of the affairs on Mind Cleansing Peak, and there shouldnt be any problems with Third Old Zhu, Lin Zhong, Spirit Vulture, Patriarch North Light, Lin Huaiyuan and the others watching over Mind Cleansing Peak.

In two years, once the three collateral branches of the Lin Clan, West Creek, Cloud Weight and Flying Peak, were unified, the entire Lin Family would undergo a complicated transformation!

Moreover, Lin Xun left the Shattered Tragedy Spear with Lin Zhong on Mind Cleansing Peak. It was a peerless weapon that could change the power of a clan. He believed that Lin Zhong would find great uses for it in the future.

Lin Xun had a clear goal of returning to Qinglu AcademyHe wanted to go to train on Sky Stairs Mountain in order to further understand the water imago power he had grasped and also make preparations for ascending to the Heaven Ascension Stage!

However, he had to make changes to his plan because on the day that he returned to Qinglu Academy, Zhao Jingxuan came to visit him.

Whats the matter? Is there a problem with the Nine Dragons Cauldron? Lin Xun asked in puzzlement.

As usual, Zhao Jingxuan was disguised as a man. She was dressed in purple clothes that accentuated her bright eyes, white teeth, and her pure elegance and ethereal charm.

She smiled slightly. Of course not. I just came to express my gratitude. The wonders of the treasure are completely beyond my expectations. With it, I have the confidence that I can compete with experts at the initial Cyclic Derivation Stage. Her voice was as clear as spring water.

Amazing! exclaimed Lin Xun.

He had heard from Zhao Tailai that Zhao Jingxuans cultivation had been suppressed by the emperor for ten years because her talent was too strong and terrifying. Her cultivation level was still only at the initial Heaven Ascension Stage. Even so, she had admitted that she could compete with experts of the Cyclic Derivation Stage with the help of the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

Zhao Jingxuan blinked and said with a smile, Youre not bad either. I remember I wasnt as powerful as you are now when I was at the Perfect Spirit Sea Stage. At least, I couldnt withstand the sudden attack of a Life Death Stage King.

Zhao Jingxuan had learned about the details of the battles that happened at the Yao Family.

That was just a fluke. There wont be a second time. Oh, by the way, there is one thing that I want to ask you about.

Let's hear it. Zhao Jingxuans interest was piqued.

Its about the Great Dao catastrophe. Lin Xun asked bluntly, Im curious as to what impact the catastrophe will have?

The catastrophe is unimaginable. It involves the changes of the mystery only known to the heavens. Even the immortals in the Ancient Wasteland Domain cant speculate upon it.

Zhao Jingxuans expression turned serious. But what is certain is that the catastrophe will cause a shocking upheaval in the entire world!

The entire world? Including the Ancient Wasteland Domain? asked Lin Xun.

Yes, but it wouldnt affect the Ancient Wasteland Domain too much. The one that will suffer the greatest may be the world we are currently in.

Zhao Jingxuan didnt hide anything from Lin Xun. According to some elders, the catastrophe is full of variables, so it is unpredictable.

All of a sudden, a strange look came to her clear eyes. There is a prophecy circulating in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. It is said that when the Great Dao Catastrophe happens, an unprecedented great age will be born. At that time, countless monster-like geniuses and heaven prides will emerge, and the mysterious Daoist sects from the ancient years will also appear at the same time, fighting for the world.

That is known as the battle of the great age!

There was a hint of anticipation in her voice. Clearly, she couldnt calm her emotions when she mentioned the battle of the great age.

Lin Xun was both shocked and amazed. He didnt expect the appearance of a Great Dao Catastrophe would have such a huge impact.

It was a world-changing omen!

The strange look in Zhao Jingxuans clear eyes suddenly faded. But it also foreshadows an unprecedented turbulent time. Unexpected disasters will descend upon the world, and countless cultivators will be filled with hatred. At that time, the world will be in chaos, and people will be plunged into misery!

Lin Xun was taken aback.

Great age?

Turbulent times?

Under the Great Dao, once prosperity and splendor reached their end, would disaster and destruction follow?

The Great Dao Catastrophe was the source of everything. It was like an invisible force that kicked off the unpredictable battle of the great age or the war of turbulent times!

Of course, there is still a long time before all that happens. At least, you wouldnt need to worry about such things happening in the Ancient Wasteland Domain for the next one hundred years.

Zhao Jingxuan said casually, However, it is predicted that the various daoist sects in the Ancient Wasteland Domains are already preparing for it. They are accumulating their strength to seize good fortune in the shocking upheaval.

There is one hundred years left to prepare... Lin Xun said ruminatively, breathing an inward sigh of relief.

The news was too sudden and unexpected, and made him feel a little caught off guard. Fortunately, he still had time to prepare.

However, as the Great Dao Catastrophe neared, the world would become less and less peaceful!

Lin Xun, I came here to ask you for help with something, Zhao Jingxuan suddenly said aloud, revealing the real purpose of her visit.

Whats the matter? asked Lin Xun.

Three days from now, an elder of my sect will come to this world with some disciples. They plan to head to the Spirit Burial Sea to explore an ancient secret domain that is said to be covered with prohibition seals set by the sage of the ancient times. I want to ask you to come with us. It may also be an opportunity for you.

Zhao Jingxuan stated, Also, from what I know, the Dao-Refining Seaspirit Flower is very likely to be found there!
