Chapter 1235 Underworld Son

Wang Xuanyu's voice contained a mix of vigilance, warning, and an almost indiscernible smugness.

It was because he had managed to retrieve a treasure before Lin Xun!

Before Lin Xun could reply, however, Wang Xuanyu suddenly let out a strange cry and threw out something.

It was the crimson bead that he had just obtained.

Boom!

The bead exploded a split second after leaving his hand.

Wang Xuanyu staggered backwards. His eyebrows and hair were slightly scorched, causing him to look to be in a rather sorry state.

Lin Xun was initially stunned before he desperately tried to contain his laughter. It was comical how the guy that was showing off got his just deserts so quickly.

However, Lin Xun's heart soon fluttered, realizing something was wrong.

All the treasures that the experts tried to seize were either illusions or traps like the crimson bead. The traps had even injured several experts!

Some of the more unfortunate ones were even blasted into a bloody mess.

An uproar soon swept across the area as everyone was filled with rage.

What was going on?

Wasn’t there supposed to be a heaven-defying blessing that had been sealed for thousands of years? Why was this happening instead?

"A fake!"

Wang Xuanyu gritted his teeth with a gloomy expression.

The man who had always maintained a calm, courteous, and elegant demeanor was now somewhat furious.

Whoosh!

On the other hand, Lin Xun decisively retreated and tried to get as far away from the altar as possible.

He had sensed danger!

No one knew the origin of the Divine Underworld Altar, and it had mostly been speculation that a heaven-defying blessing was sealed here.

Several experts’ hearts trembled at the sight of Lin Xun withdrawing, and they grew somewhat hesitant, feeling reluctant to leave just like this.

However, there were also others who retreated as well!

The altar was too strange. Although the treasures atop it were insanely desirable, it had already been proven that they were nothing but illusions!

It felt like a trap, which was a thought that would make anyone’s hair stand on end.

Rumble!

Suddenly, someone rushed across the sky brandishing a snow-bright halberd and swung it at Lin Xun with the force of three thousand catties, splashing resplendent snowy dao light everywhere.

"Trying to leave? Don’t even think about it!"

It was the ancient-era genius from the Tiger-Rhino Clan, Hua Tianhai.

He had previously been forced to give away his position to Lin Xun and thus harbored a grudge. Hua Tianhai had originally planned to take revenge during the battle for the blessing.The latest_epi_sodes are on_the ɴovelFɪre.net

Who could have imagined that the situation would be completely different from what everyone expected? Hence, he struck without hesitation when he saw Lin Xun attempt to flee.

Of course, Hua Tianhai didn’t intend to fight Lin Xun to the death but rather hold him here and prevent him from escaping!

In this way, he would be able to drag Lin Xun down with him if a disaster followed.

It was quite the insidious plan.

Electricity seemed to blossom in Lin Xun’s eyes as he abruptly punched.

Rumble!

With a dreadful collision sound, the halberd seemed to wail in agony as Hua Tianhai was blasted away and thrown more than a hundred feet back. He staggered to regain his balance and nearly coughed blood due to the pain.

"You’re not bad, no wonder you dared to rush in so recklessly."

Lin Xun was somewhat surprised. Not just anyone could block the power of that punch.

However, these words felt like a huge mockery to Hua Tianhai and caused his face to turn red with rage.

However, Lin Xun had already lost interest and decisively rushed forward again.

This place was so bizarre that it made him feel somewhat unsettled.

"Friend, since you’ve come, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Blood-colored light suddenly fell in front of Lin Xun and transformed into an extremely handsome man dressed in blood-colored clothes.

He looked extremely unique, with eyes that resembled a pair of translucent blood diamonds, a head of long blood-colored hair that flowed down to his waist, and a straight and tall figure.

He resembled a churning river of blood as he casually stood there and gave off a heart-palpitating presence.

"Everyone, please stop. I wish to sit down and discuss the dao with all of you."

At the same time, a blood-colored figure appeared in front of every expert. Their appearances were exactly the same as the blood-robed man and even their auras were indistinguishable!

The place instantly turned deathly silent as everyone’s expressions abruptly changed.

Who was this blood-robed man that no one had seen before?

"The entire Underworld is my territory and the place where everyone is standing is where I was slumbering."

Hundreds of blood-robed men spoke in unison. Their low voices seemed to contain a unique magnetism that allowed them to reach into everyone’s hearts.

Although he seemed to be a single person, he had the power of ten thousand bodies!

Under the shocked and uncertain gazes of the crowd, the corners of the blood-robed man's lips lifted in an evilly charming manner. ''You guys can call me...Underworld Son."

Underworld Son!

These simple two words caused everyone’s hearts to shudder.

The blood-robed figures noiselessly disintegrated into specks of light and converged together into a single figure above the stone table.

He languidly stretched and unhurriedly said, ''There’s no need to be alarmed, everyone. I have been sleeping for thousands of years, and this is the first time I’ve woken up. I am filled with joy to meet so many friends and will not kill anyone."

His diamond-like, blood-colored eyes looked at everyone, causing their expressions to fluctuate indeterminately.

They had taken great pains and risked their lives to reach this place after much difficulty. Who could have anticipated that the heaven-defying blessing would be a dud and they would instead encounter a weirdo who called himself Underworld Son?!

It greatly soured their moods.

Someone frostily said, "What up with those treasures earlier?"

Underworld Son acknowledged with a grunt and summoned a blood-colored kettle with a flip of his hand. The kettle radiated gorgeous chaos-like specks of light as he said, "Those treasures are sealed in my Underworld Emperor Spirit Refining Kettle. What all of you saw earlier were the visual manifestations of these treasures."

Dao light circulated around the kettle on his palm as primal chaos-like qi rose around it. It appeared extremely mysterious and immediately drew everyone’s gazes.

The Underworld Emperor Spirit Refining Kettle!

It was bound to be an extraordinary treasure.

Moreover, if Underworld Son’s claim was true, the treasures they had seen earlier were all sealed in the kettle!

Wang Xuanyu suddenly asked, "So the heaven-defying blessing that’s supposed to be here doesn’t actually exist?"

He had already regained his composure by this juncture.

Underworld Son smiled faintly. "All blessings are in my hands, so how can you say it doesn't exist? I know that everyone has come to seek blessings. In that case, please be at ease and sit down to talk. "

With a wave of his sleeve, blood-colored cloud mats appeared in front of every expert.

"Everyone, please go ahead and take a seat." He beckoned with a wave of his hand.

The crowd looked at each other in hesitation.

"In that case, I do have many doubts that I would like to clarify with this Dao Friend."

Wang Xuanyu was the first to take a seat, displaying an air of calm confidence.

Underworld Son nodded and smiled. ''Dao Friend harbors the Great One Precious Eye and is accompanied by great luck. Your future prospects are limitless."

Wang Xuanyu cupped his hands together. ''Dao Friend thinks too highly of me."

The others also seated themselves one after another upon seeing this. They also wished for answers and the truth. "Apologies, I have to get going."

Lin Xun’s words immediately caused a small stir as every gaze turned toward him.

Underworld Son was taken aback. He asked, ''Is Dao Friend afraid that I'm harboring ill intentions? You can rest assured that I have only awakened from my slumber today and only wish to chat with all of you."

Lin Xun replied, "I have something to attend to and do not have time to accompany you."

With that, he turned to leave.

Divine light swirled in Underworld Son’s blood-colored eyes as he grinned and said, ''Friend, I can give this to you if you stay."

As soon as the words rang out, a blood coral appeared out of nowhere with a dazzling purple, sun-like fruit hanging from its branch.

Everyone’s pupils abruptly shrank.

They were certain that this divine herb wasn’t an illusion!

For a time, many people felt regretful. If they had known this would happen, they would have followed Lin Xun's example and come up with an excuse to leave!

To everyone’s surprise, Lin Xun rejected without any hesitation.

Underworld Son’s smile withdrew as he said, "Dao Friend, I can tell that your battle prowess is quite impressive. How about this, I will present you another gift in addition to the Purple Sun Underworld Fruit."

With a buzzing sound, an ancient leather scripture appeared. It emitted an obscure and hazy aura and a chanting-like hum immediately drifted from it the moment it appeared.

It sounded like Saints chanting scriptures!

The crowd stirred again as several people’s eyes turned red with desire.

They were finally certain that Underworld Son wasn’t lying earlier. The blessings were all in his hands!

"This ancient scripture was authored by a Big Saint expert of the Underworld. It contains various insights and experiences that he gained while seeking the path of immortality."

Several people could not help but gasp at these words.

How could a scripture personally written by a Big Saint expert be ordinary?

In addition, it contained cultivation insights and secrets of the path of immortality, which were an irresistible temptation to any King expert!

Who could have expected that Lin Xun would still refuse? Furthermore, he did so in a rather rude manner, "Does Dao Friend believe that such things can change my mind?"

There was definitely something wrong when someone tried to tempt you for no reason!

Others might salivate at such treasures, but Lin Xun grew increasingly certain that something was wrong.

However, his behavior astonished and dismayed many people. They felt that he was being far too pretentious. He’s offering an ancient scripture and a divine herb just for you to stay and have a chat? Why are you still being so difficult about it?

"Lin Xun, Underworld Son has good intentions yet you’ve repeatedly rejected him. Aren’t you being a little unreasonable?"

Hua Tianhai icily said, ''Or perhaps you don't have any regard for Underworld Son?"

Murder flashed in Lin Xun’s black eyes as he disappeared from the spot.

Shit!

Hua Tianhai's expression abruptly changed. Just as he tried to get up, a burst of brilliant fist-force broke through the air and smashed toward him.

Crack!

Although Hua Tianhai barely managed to block the blow, his arm was instantly crushed to a pulp as he was sent flying.

He furiously roared, "You dare to attack!?"

He wasn’t the only one. The others also hadn’t expected Lin Xun to attack without any warning. No one would be prepared to defend against such an attack.

Plop!

A streak of light flashed past and Hua Tianhai’s neck was severed mid-way through his roar.

It was the power of Impermanence Slash!

Lin Xun had simply been too lazy to bother with him earlier. However, he was not going to tolerate being repeatedly provoked.

Others might have thought that he wouldn't dare to act recklessly out of fear of Underworld Son.

Unfortunately, they had thought wrong!
