He must be a top figure of the Cyclic Derivation Stage!

Lin Xun speculated in his mind. He had defeated Qin Xuandu, Zuo Baoying and other Cyclic Derivation experts so he had an understanding of the power of that cultivation stage.

So, from the exchange of blows just now, he knew that the gray-haired old man was a top figure of the Cyclic Derivation Stage.

That wasnt the most frightening. What was frightening was that the old mans power was complete, flawless and perfect, and far superior to that of Qin Xuandu and others.

That was caused by the damage to the great dao in the lower domain world.

Qin Xuandu and the others had reached the Cyclic Derivation, but in the eyes of the true big shots, their dao had obvious flaws, and they were much inferior to Cyclic Derivation cultivators who cultivated a true complete dao.

In the past, Lin Xun didnt understand the difference. Only after his various experiences and encounters in the Spirit Burial Sea, which helped him complete his own dao path and set foot on the supreme path, did he deeply realize the impact that the incomplete great dao had on cultivators.

It was no wonder that all geniuses of the younger generation were determined to leave and train in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

They wanted to pursue the complete dao, which didnt exist in the lower domain world!

The dao was of utmost importance.

It was also the reason why the gray-haired old man was so powerful and much stronger than Qin Xuandu and the others.

Boom!

While Lin Xun was in deep thought, the gray-haired old man launched his second attack. His imposing bearing continued to soar.

I want to see whether you force me to use my ultimate strength! Lin Xun drew a deep breath and activated the Sacred Combat Art, igniting his fighting spirit like flames.

Ever since Lin Xun returned to the Forbidden City, he hadnt met a worthy opponent. He wasnt afraid of facing the old man, but actually looked forward to their battle.

However, before the two faced off again, a figure appeared in the arena, blocking the old man.

Xuan Xing, we are here as guests and not to fight. You should step back.

It was an extremely young-looking youth. Dressed in a dark green robe, his eyes looked as pure and innocent as a babys, but the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes were an indication of his years of experience and knowledge.

With his hands behind his back, he exuded a calm and relaxed demeanor, but also majesty! His presence made people feel small and insignificant.

No one noticed how he appeared, but his appearance immediately became the focus of everyones attention!

Everyones pupils shrank and an oppressive power filled their hearts, including Lin Xuns. The man was no doubt a Life Death Stage King!

The entire audience was completely still and silent. Only the youth stood tall and unshakable like a mountain peak.

Xuan Xing, the purple-robed old man, also turned pale. He hesitated to speak several times before he finally retreated to the other side and stood in silence.

The scene demonstrated the youths extraordinary authority.

He was Yue Xiu, an elder of the Heaven Axis Holy Land, an old monster of the Life Death Stage and also a famous figure in the Ancient Wasteland Domain!

Take them and leave here first, Yue Xiu commanded.

Xuan Xing hesitated, resentment and anger rising in his heart. Elder, just now...

Just now, Ive seen everything. Their skills are inferior, but they still had to provoke other people. Its good that they learned a lesson. Do you think the successors of our Heaven Axis Holy Land are sore losers? Yue Xiu stated indifferently but Xuan Xings face paled more, feeling an enormous pressure bearing down on him.

He didnt dare to hesitate any longer and hurried away with Nangong Huo and the others.

Hu

The teachers and students heaved a sigh of relief and cast respectful looks at Yue Xiu.

His graceful bearing and imposing mannerperhaps that is the true demeanor that people from the Heaven Axis Holy Land should have?

Lin Xun, Ive heard about you. Even the principal has nothing but praise for you.

Yue Xiu smiled as he looked at Lin Xun. After watching the battles just now, I am more convinced that you are indeed as extraordinary as the rumors say. What do you think? Are you interested in training in Heaven Axis Holy Land?

His words stirred the audience. Everyone went wild with shock and excitement.

Lin Xun was just beating up the Heaven Axis Holy Land successors, but now a big shot of the Heaven Axis Holy Land excused him and invited him to train in Heaven Axis Holy Land.

It was too unexpected!

Even Lin Xun was taken aback.

You dont need to worry about your actions today affecting your training in the Heaven Axis Holy Land. Given your foundation, I believe that the training will truly unearth your potential, Yue Xiu said sincerely, eyes gleaming with undisguised admiration.

Although he looked young, he was an old Life Death Stage King monster. It was very unexpected that he actively recruited a junior.

Emotions welled up in the teachers and students. Perhaps only someone like Little Instructor Lin could make a Life Death Stage King treat him with respect.

Any other cultivator would have accepted the invitation without thinking.

After all, it was an incredibly rare opportunity for someone from the lower domain world to train in the Heaven Axis Holy Land!

But Lin Xun still deliberated.

It wasnt that he wasnt tempted. He had originally planned to train in the Ancient Wasteland Domain after he settled and arranged everything. He was hesitant because he still had many matters to settle and resolve.

Yue Xiu silently studied Lin Xun. He didnt look the slightest bit displeased. He admired Lin Xun greatly. The first time he laid eyes on Lin Xun, he felt a rush of unexpected joy in his heart, as if he had found a rare treasure.

Given his ability, he could easily tell that Lin Xun had embarked on the supreme path. A peerless genius such as Lin Xun would be considered a very good seedling even in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

Moreover, Lin Xun was able to set foot on the supreme path in a world with a damaged great dao. His potential and talent had to be extraordinary to achieve that.

A talented genius such as him deserved his respect!

However, before Lin Xun reached an answer, a clear voice boomed out

Elder, there are some things that you probably dont know. If you did, then you wouldnt make such a hasty decision.

Everyone frowned. Who was so bold to speak out at this moment?

That person wanted to prevent Lin Xun from joining the Heaven Axis Holy Land!

Everyone turned their heads to see a handsome young man in a bright golden imperial robe with a purple-gold hat crowning his head.

The Ninth Prince! someone exclaimed in surprise, stunning the audience.

The Ninth Prince Zhao Jingzhen!

The son of the great emperor! He had an extraordinary status within the Ziyao Empire!

Why did he come here? Why did he interfere in the matter?

All the teachers and students had a bad feeling, realizing that the Ninth Prince didnt come with good intentions.

Lin Xun furrowed his brow when he heard about Zhao Jingzhens identity. He was very puzzled as to why he would appear when he had never seen him or met him before.

Why do you say that? Yue Xiu frowned, eyes flashing with discontent.

As an elder of the Heaven Axis Holy Land in the Ancient Wasteland Domain and a Life Death Stage, he wouldnt be afraid or attach any importance to a little prince.

However, Zhao Jingzhen respectfully bowed to Yue Xiu. Elder, dont over think. I have no intention of ruining things. I just want to tell you the truth.

Truth?

Everyone was perplexed.

Lin Xun frowned, but he didnt say anything. He wanted to see what kind of tricks the Ninth Prince wanted to play.

Speak. Yue Xiu suppressed his discontent.

Zhao Jingzhen smiled calmly and began to speak in a loud and resounding voice, Elder, you might not know that, not long ago, a successor of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land died in the hands of Lin Xun. The Spirit Treasure Holy Land now regards him as an enemy, and they will sooner or later capture and kill him as revenge.

Si!

All the teachers and students gasped. They had no idea that Lin Xun had done such a terrifying thing and angered the Spirit Treasure Holy Land.

Lin Xun imperceptibly narrowed his eyes, coldly studying Zhao Jingzhen. I killed Gong Yangyu in the depths of the Spirit Burial Sea, so how did this guy know about it?

Unless...the successors of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land personally told him!

Who would speak about such a shameful matter?

But Zhao Jingzhen knew about it. This means that he is somehow connected with the Spirit Treasure Holy Land!

Surprised, Yue Xiu couldnt help asking Lin Xun, Is this true?

Lin Xun nodded. He knew that the matter could no longer be covered up. Even if he denied it, then Zhao Jingzhen would be able to produce some kind of evidence to prove it!

In Lin Xuns view, Zhao Jingzhen had come prepared.

Yue Xiu kept quiet.

The teachers and students shuddered as they realized that the Ninth Prince Zhao Jingzhen intentionally came to target Lin Xun and ruin his opportunity to train in Heaven Axis Holy Land!

Elder, I know that the Spirit Treasure Holy Land and the Heaven Axis Holy Land are two great ancient dao sects of the Ancient Wasteland Domain. How would they feel if you accepted Lin Xun? Zhao Jingzhen still wore a very calm expression on his face. He spoke very eloquently, neither humble nor disrespectful, and he never glanced once at Lin Xun.

His behavior chilled everyone. He had to come with ill intentions, but why would he want to target Lin Xun?

Lin Xun found it very strange because he had a very good relationship with Zhao Jingxuan and also Zhao Tailai. Even the emperor and empress had secretly taken care of him.

He didnt expect the Ninth Prince, Zhao Jingzhen, would suddenly jump out and attack him.

How would you understand the relationship between the two great ancient dao sects? Its funny if you think you can change my attitude based on that. Yue Xiu snorted coldly, looking at Zhao Jingzhen with disgust.

However, Zhao Jingzhen didnt mind and said respectfully, Dont worry, Elder, the truth is, of course, more than that.

What did that mean?

Could there be something more terrifying about Lin Xun than his murder of a successor of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land?

Everyone quivered inwardly, their faces crossed with bewilderment.
