Chapter 446 Scarlet Fire Gourd

The dark blood-red sky was filled with black mist.

It was a thick, evil miasma that could not be dispersed, so it was left to intimidatingly float in the air.

The ground was red as if it had been soaked in blood. There was rubble and broken walls everywhere and even rotten corpses, rusted armor, and weapons!

This was Treasure Drop Blood Plain.

When Lin Xun arrived, he felt that it clearly resembled an ancient battlefield!

An evil miasma that had not changed for thousands of years, boundless empty land as far as the eye could see, blood-red mist seemingly rising like vapor, and a boundless, heart-palpitating, somber aura.

Rustle~

In the distance, numerous cultivators could be seen flying in different directions as if they had already decided on their destination.

Lin Xun quickly realized that since Treasure Drop blood Plain was a famous place that many experts had entered before, disciples from powerful and ancient factions would almost certainly possess information about it.

As such, they would not randomly wander around like flies, but instead head toward places that were worth exploring.

Phew~

Lin Xun took a deep breath and cast aside these thoughts. He had not come to Treasure Drop Blood Plain to seek treasure. Instead, he had hoped to fight until he could fully materialize his Origin Aeth Artery.

After checking his bearings, Lin Xun took off. He did not conceal his presence and boldly traveled through the domain.

Not long after, a sizzling noise was heard as a blue glow rushed out from one of the ruins and swiftly flew away like a blazing streak of light.

Numerous cultivators nearby were initially alarmed but that was quickly replaced by excitement as they crazily shouted.

“An ancient treasure! It’s an ancient treasure!”

“Chase it!”

The cultivators fell into a frenzy like sharks that had smelt blood as they swarmed into the air and gave chase.

The blue light was clearly a sentient ancient treasure. The fact that it managed to maintain its condition despite the countless years that had passed was more than a testament to its power!

It would be a huge haul for anyone who succeeded in subduing it!

There are ancient treasures in these ruins?

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed. He had caught a clear view of the blue glow earlier and saw that it was a broken animal crystalline bone with mysterious ancient runes carved into its surface.

Rumble~

The sound of fighting suddenly erupted from another ruin as a crowd of cultivators brought out their secret arts in their struggle over another ancient treasure.

It was a small bronze hammer that shimmered with silver light. It refused to be subdued and frantically flew around in the air as it sent out blasts of terrifying lightning-like light.

It was clearly another sentient ancient treasure!

A few of the cultivators failed to avoid the attack and were injured by the silver lightning, causing them to scream in pain.

Someone exclaimed in shock, “That’s at least a heaven-grade ancient treasure! Look at that power. It’s at least several times more powerful than the heaven-grade aeth tools of this era!”

Several cultivators loudly yelled as they charged over to join in the battle for the small bronze hammer.

Lin Xun’s heart stirred. Barely any time had passed since he entered Treasure Drop Blood Plain, but two ancient treasures had already appeared. It was shocking, to say the least.

It was no wonder that so many famous geniuses and ancient factions had been drawn here. Treasure Drop Blood Plain was indeed an amazing place of opportunity that lived up to its reputation!

However, Lin Xun soon noticed that the ancient sect successors were ignoring these ancient treasures and instead focused on traveling deeper into the land.

Evidently, there were even more astonishing treasures hidden in Treasure Drop Blood Plain that these heaven prides were after.

Lin Xun pondered for a while before ultimately shaking his head and deciding to continue forward. Although he sorely wished for a battle, he would not voluntarily seek out trouble.

Treasure Drop Blood Plain was extremely vast and seemingly endless. Besides the ruins, there were also broken mountains, abysses, barren beaches, and other danger zones.

The domain was filled with faint dark blood-red light and an evil miasma, but burning treasure-light would occasionally burst out from somewhere, creating a dazzling flash.

A shriek suddenly sounded in the distance, causing Lin Xun’s eyes to narrow.

It was from a lone middle-aged cultivator who had just successfully obtained a bell-shaped bronze ancient treasure.

Before he could celebrate, he was surrounded and attacked by a group of disciples who had rushed over. They quickly killed him before his body heat could even spread to the treasure!

“Pui! A lone unaffiliated cultivator dares to think about these ancient treasures? He must be tired of living.”

“Haha, at least it saves us the trouble of subduing the ancient treasures ourselves. We only need to kill them and take the treasures.”

The disciples happily chatted, feeling smug about their success.

“Eh, isn’t that the youngster who fought Zhu Lintian?”

The disciples suddenly discovered Lin Xun, causing their expressions to sink. They immediately became on guard as killing intent spread from their brows.

Lin Xun ignored them and continued along his way.

However, he lamented inside that without power, these treasures would only bring disaster!

“Since when did he become so amicable?”

“Don’t provoke him. Someone who can put up a fight against a Heaven Ascension expert is no pushover. Our priority is to obtain as many treasures as possible.”

The disciples’ eyes flickered in thought as they watched Lin Xun leave. In the end, they restrained themselves from making a move.

For the next two hours, Lin Xun encountered countless similar situations where bloody conflicts occurred over treasures.

He witnessed many more cultivators meeting their end amidst the cruel competition like the middle-aged expert.

It was a land of opportunity, but it was also a burial ground that was filled with unpredictable danger!

Lin Xun ignored all the conflicts and treasures. Treasure Drop Blood Plain was vast beyond imagination and was definitely filled with many more opportunities. There was no point in voluntarily seeking out trouble.

Woowoo~

Scarlet light suddenly rose, accompanied by a deep humming noise as a scarlet gourd flew out from the boulders to his side. It pulsed with power that seemed capable of burning down an entire district.

Swoosh!

Lin Xun immediately gave chase. He was naturally not going to miss out on an ancient treasure that had sent itself right to his doorstep.

Moreover, the scarlet gourd was extraordinary. It looked slightly bigger than a palm and gleamed like jade. A dense fiery glow burned around it as terrifying flames overflowed around it. It was a rare find.

Boom!

Lin Xun waved his sleeve, sending out a wave of light that instantly enveloped the scarlet gourd.

However, the gourd suddenly twisted, spewing out a spiraling wave of dazzling golden-crow-like fire that allowed it to escape!

Oh?

Lin Xun’s eyes brightened. What amazing spirituality!

Rumble~

He unleashed his full power, sending out a stream of azure light.

At the same time, however, the air vibrated as a silver river appeared and slashed at Lin Xun with deadly force.

He narrowly avoided the attack with the Hornless Ice Dragon Step, causing the silver river to cleanly slice through a nearby mountain!

It was a peerlessly sharp blade attack that would have killed anyone who was hit.

While this was happening, a figure emerged far away and caught the scarlet gourd with a wave of his sleeve.

Lin Xun’s expressions darkened as a sliver of irritation and killing intent flowed out in his eyes.

The attacker was an elder in white robes with a gray beard and gray hair while the person who had caught the scarlet gourd was a middle-aged man with a scar on his face.

The two of them had clearly planned this. One of them would stop Lin Xun while the other would seize the ancient treasure. Moreover, their teamwork and timing had been impeccable.

“Hahaha, this treasure is overflowing with spirituality and has no signs of damage. What a rare find.”

The middle-aged man let out a hearty laugh.

The white-robed elder icily shouted at Lin Xun, “Young man, this treasure belongs to our Golden Light Sect. Hurry and scram if you don’t want to die!”

As he spoke, several young men and women appeared from the distance and gathered behind the white-robed elder and middle-aged man.

They were clearly from the Golden Light Sect as well.

“You guys should not have provoked me.”

Lin Xun’s indifferent voice sounded. His wrath had been invoked after having an ancient treasure that was nearly in his hands snatched away.

“Is that so? Do you think facing Zhu Lintian gives you the right to say whatever you want? What a fool!”

The white-robed elder sneered, clearly recognizing Lin Xun.

Lin Xun did not waste any time arguing. A terrifying pressure erupted from his body like a long-suppressed abyss as he charged.

Boom!

A loud boom shook the heavens as he punched.

“So you do want to die!”

The white-robed elder’s expression darkened as a silver blade appeared in his hand.

The terrifying clash made the surrounding area ripple. To his surprise, the white-robed elder found himself staggering backward as his blade wailed in misery.

His expression abruptly changed after finally experiencing Lin Xun’s dreadful power!

“Attack together! We will end this quickly!”

The middle-aged man howled as he activated his secret art. His aura seemed to become capable of swallowing mountains and rivers as thousands of black beams shot toward Lin Xun.

“Kill!”

The Golden Light Sect disciples did not dare to sit by any longer. They swiftly fanned out and attacked Lin Xun from all sides.

There were no rules in Treasure Drop Blood Plain. Things such as honor could easily be thrown away in order to kill Lin Xun as quickly as possible.

After all, there were far too many factions in Treasure Drop Blood Plain and others would certainly arrive if they delayed any more than necessary.

Boom~ Boom~

A great battle erupted.

Lin Xun’s black hair danced wildly around him. A murderous and cold look filled his face as his aura boiled around him like a mighty abyss.

Although he was all alone, he was not suppressed. Instead, he appeared extremely overwhelming.

This made the Golden Light Sect group’s expressions change. None of them had expected Lin Xun to still be so unstoppable even in such circumstances.

Moments later, his fist-force hurtled through the air and smashed into the chest of one of the young cultivators, leaving a bloody hole. His body sailed through the air as he shrieked one last time before dying.

The other young cultivators’ expressions changed. Only after facing Lin Xun in battle did they finally understand his heaven-defying strength and savageness.

He was nothing like an advanced Spirit Sea cultivator and instead resembled a young demon god who could go toe-to-toe with Heaven Ascension experts!
