Chapter 1277 First Exchange with Yun Qingbai!

On the eighteenth floor of Stupa Tower, murderous intent spread like cold air current and the air was pervaded by an austere atmosphere.

“So it’s you. I didn’t expect to see you here.”

The jade-robed young man raised his eyes, startled to see Lin Xun at first before his face resumed its usual cool indifference.

From the beginning to the end, sword qi whirled and roared around him like a vortex, as though he was the ruler of the sword, adding to his restrained self-confidence.

“This is the inevitable way of karma.” Lin Xun’s dark eyes flashed coldly.

He seemed to have become another person. His clothes whipped about his body and killing intent swept from him like an avalanche!

This was because the man standing before him was Yun Qingbai!

The unrivaled swordsman was regarded as the leading figure of the younger generation of the Omega Sword Sect and who once held the title of strongest below the king stage.

His name was known all over the world long ago; no one had not heard of it.

But to Lin Xun, Yun Qingbai only had one identity─

His enemy!

Their feud was steeped in blood and tears.

Over the years, Lin Xun had been searching nonstop. He escaped the mine prison, he passed Feiyun Village, he entered the Ziyao Empire, and he came to the Ancient Wasteland Domain...

He had gone through endless dangers and sufferings along the way, just to end this feud!

If he did not get revenge, then how could he be a man?

When he unexpectedly encountered Yun Qingbai on the eighteenth floor of the Three Thousand Stupa Tower, the hatred suppressed in the depths of his heart completely exploded like the lava of a volcano.

However, he maintained an extremely calm exterior and an unprecedentedly clear state of mind, while his energy, qi and spirit were being circulated.

You did not need any reason for revenge!

But Lin Xun would not let hatred cloud his mind.

He knew very well how powerful Yun Qingbai was. No matter whether it was before or now, he was regarded as an overlord-like character who controlled and led an era.

His strength was long known to all.

On the Genius Gold Rankings of the Upper Nine Realms, his position as number one was unshakable.

Therefore, if Lin Xun wanted to deal with someone like him, he had to treat him as a mortal enemy!

“Karma?” Yun Qingbai repeated indifferently, “I only believe in the sword in my heart, I never believe in karma. I, Yun Qingbai, have killed countless people since I embarked on the cultivation path. If there was karma, then how would I be allowed to live until now?”

“It’s not that there isn’t karma. But it has not come for you yet.”

Lin Xun’s expression was still calm and collected, but he had already gathered power to the palms of his hands. “But now, it is here.”

“Now that we’ve met, there is no rush to die. Why don’t we have a chat first? Speaking of which, this is our first proper meeting.”

Yun Qingbai’s eyes were calm, with an ultimate detached indifference.

He seemed very relaxed and leisurely sitting cross-legged on the ground, which gave the feeling of being unassailable.

The big black bird narrowed his eyes, which were constantly flashing.

He had heard of Yun Qingbai and knew about his power.

But he did not imagine that they would run into him when they originally came to kill Ancient Buddha Son.

“Where is Ancient Buddha Son, did you kill him?” asked the big black bird.

Yun Qingbai nodded casually. “He practices the Good and Evil Transcension Sutra. Over the years, he has killed countless fellow cultivators. He can be said to have committed a heinous sin.

“Of course, I am not that heroic and virtuous. I killed him only because I wanted to understand the path he was seeking.”

He described the murder in such an indifferent manner that even the big black bird could not help but shudder.

Ancient Buddha Son was from the Earth Treasury Temple and known for his strength, but Yun Qingbai not only killed him but also completely disregarded him!

“Why did you not leave after that?”

Lin Xun suddenly marched forward, his steps slow, but a mighty force was spreading outwards from him.

His black hair billowed around him, his cold eyes flashed like lightning, and his murderous intent was firmly locked on Yun Qingbai.

“Why would I need to leave here?” Yun Qingbai shrugged and gave no response to Lin Xun’s approach.

He glanced around. “Three Thousand Stupa Tower was left by the first Saint Buddha in the ancient era, and it conceals a great fortune. I reckon it is sealed within the eighteen dao diagrams engraved on the walls. I won’t leave until I unravel the secret.”

When Lin Xun and Big Black Bird entered the tower, they also noticed the eighteen stone carvings, but they had no time to investigate further.

Now, the big black bird could not help but take a look at it.

Lin Xun, on the other hand, never wavered once. He seemed to not hear and took another step forward, his murderous intent focusing only on Yun Qingbai like a waterfall.

Even if the sky collapsed or the earth crumbled, or everything became obliterated, nothing could distract his attention!

Clang!

The Broken Blade flashed in the air, as illusory as a feather, as dazzling as pure white light, and exuding an unrivaled sharpness.

“What a treasure!” Yun Qingbai’s eyes lit up as he assessed, “This blade must have an impressive origin. I can feel that its aura is not that simple.”

From beginning to end, Yun Qingbai’s reaction was exceptionally calm, but it was that calmness that made him unfathomable and impossible to figure out.

“Then how do you feel about me beheading you with this blade?” Lin Xun’s voice was emotionless .

His energy, qi and spirit had already been activated to their peak level, and he had prepared himself into a state of Extreme Absolute.

If he launched an attack, then it would be a thunderous one!

“You only have a cultivation level of the third longevity tribulation stage. Even if you possess heaven-defying strength, you are no match for me,” Yun Qingbai remarked nonchalantly. “Not long ago, by a lucky chance, I obtained some unspeakable blessings and ascended to the fifth longevity tribulation stage in one go. If I were to attack, then I could kill you within three sword strikes.”

His voice was still incredibly calm—a kind of invincible confidence, and his words were enough to stifle many people.

“Then, why don’t you attack?”

Lin Xun was unfazed, his expression unchanged from beginning to end.

He took another step forward, standing only nine feet away from Yun Qingbai!

Yun Qingbai said indifferently, “I’m just curious. From what I know, anyone who was stripped of their innate talent has no chance of surviving. But you are the only one who has broken this norm, so I can’t bear to kill you so quickly.”

“As far as I know, Yun Qingbai always kills decisively and never drags it out unnecessarily. Why would you talk so much nonsense this time?”

Lin Xun came to stop, his slim and tall figure like a spear piercing the sky.

“Do you think I don’t dare to?” Yun Qingbai sighed and suddenly rose to his feet.

It was as though a divine sword sealed in the depths of an abyss of the great emptiness had broken free and emerged in the world!

He was indescribably fierce, confident, superior, dazzling and sharp!

Any other opponent likely would have been scared out of their wits and collapsed before the battle began.

This was because his presence was beyond terrifying!

However, a sneer curled the corners of Lin Xun’s lips. “Stop pretending!”

Shua!

As his voice rang out, Broken Blade was already slashing across the air.

Impermanence Slash!

The power of this slash could no longer be described in words. It was so fast that it could not be captured, and it was so fierce that it was unbelievable!

It was as though a ray of light was tearing apart chaos!

The mystery and secrets contained within that blade slash had reached an astonishing and earthshaking level. Yazi’s Rage, Sacred Combat Arts, Extreme Absolute, Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer…

That blade slash was a full-power unleash of Lin Xun’s strongest attacks!

Time seemed to have frozen.

Yun Qingbai, who stood up with a terrifying aura, narrowed his eyes, and a serious look replaced the superior indifference on his face.

The slash was an indescribable surprise!

It was hard to imagine that the newborn who was at death’s door back then would have achieved so much on the cultivation path. The link to the origin of this information rests in No(v)elFire.net

Unfortunately—

Clang!

A deafening and earth-shattering collision shook the entire hall.

On the nearby wall, the eighteen stone carvings glowed simultaneously, forming an invisible mysterious force to dispel and resist the shockwaves of the blow.

As for the big black bird, with a miserable shriek, its body was smashed into the wall.

Bang!

At the same time, Yun Qingbai was blasted across the air, staggering back over dozens of feet, and he was trembling imperceptibly.

His eyes glinted like the sharp edge of a sword as they locked on Lin Xun. “Unfortunately, there is still nothing you can do about me.”

However, Lin Xun smiled. “You just killed the clone of Ancient Buddha Son and swallowed all his talents. You likely have not had time to fully digest since then, am I right?”

Yun Qingbai narrowed his eyes imperceptibly and his expression turned solemn, as if he had just rediscovered Lin Xun. “You also grasped the Devouring Grand Dao, so it’s nothing special that you can see through me. Unfortunately, even so, you are still no match for me.”

Clang!

Broken Blade produced a clear cry and struck once again.

Lin Xun no longer wanted to waste time talking to Yun Qingbai.

“Slash!”

At the same time, a sword slashed through the air, emitting a formidable aura and projecting infinite phenomena. It was launched by Yun Qingbai!

The sword intent rushed up to the sky like it was unstoppable!

Clang!

The two collided with a piercing explosion. The sky split with multiple cracks, and the earth shattered. It was as though doomsday had come.

One could imagine how terrifying the clash was.

Ta Ta Ta…

Yun Qingbai reeled back several steps, seemingly in a terrible state, but was unscathed.

He said calmly, “What you just said is correct. If I were not refining the talent of Ancient Buddha Son, then I would not waste time talking to someone like you who should have died at birth.”

Lin Xun strode forward, as magnificent and imposing as a rainbow. Broken Blade flew out again at an astonishing speed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the ensuing battle, Yun Qingbai was repeatedly knocked back. Although he was unscathed, his qi and aura tumbled wildly and his face paled a little.

However, his expression remained calm and indifferent, as though completely unaffected.

“Big Black, now!” roared Lin Xun.

“Do you plan to attack together?”

Yun Qingbai’s eyes flashed with contempt.

“Bao!”

Cryptic noise suddenly came from the big black bird’s mouth like some sort of secret ancient incantations.

Pu!

As though struck by lightning, Yun Qingbai’s chest heaved violently, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Meanwhile, Broken Blade sped downwards!

Pu!

Although Yun Qingbai escaped in time, the sharp edge still brushed his back and left a straight bone-deep cut. Blood would not stop pouring out from the wound!

But terrifyingly, even after suffering such a heavy blow, Yun Qingbai still maintained his usual calm and indifferent exterior and his speed was still surprisingly fast.

Shua!

With a flash, he fled.

“You ruined everything! Next time, I’ll make you disappear into ashes!”
