Chapter 54: I Think The Lin Family Is Done For
The entire Qi Mountain County could hear the voice of the Great Abyss’ Master piercing the heavens and earth. An eerie dark path connected the world.
After that decree was issued, dark light surged over from all directions. Even though the decree was cut off by the Lin family, it could not stop the spread of this news.
This news that suddenly appeared stunned the entire Qi Mountain County.
“Oh my god, is this really the so-called master of the Great Abyss? That’s old news from ten thousand years ago. Shouldn’t the master of the Great Abyss have long turned to dust and been hidden in the ancient site?”
“How can he have turned to dust? How can a mighty figure with such a cultivation level die? You don’t even think with your brain!”
“That’s right. You have to know that even in the Primordial era, the Great Abyss was a forbidden land!”
“It is difficult to extinguish a hundred battles. The heavens will not bury him, and the earth will not bury him. Even if his body is destroyed into dust, his soul will never dissipate!”
“I really don’t understand how the Lin family provoked the owner of this Great Abyss!”
There were also families similar to the Lin family who looked into the distance with furrowed brows.
One had to know that the master of the Great Abyss had also made a move many years ago. All the families of the Qi Mountain County had joined forces to deal with the master of the Great Abyss, but in the end, they were still unable to match him. Now, it seemed that the cultivation of the master of the Great Abyss was even deeper and more unfathomable. He had not appeared at all, and he could construct the path to heaven with a single breath. Moreover, the will that descended could cover the world!
No one knew what realm the master of the Great Abyss had reached. In their opinion, the realm of the master of the Great Abyss was already difficult to pry into.
“What a pity. If we had waited a little longer, Ancestor Lin might have been able to reach that realm too!”
On the mountaintop, an old man with a white beard and white brows sighed lightly.
Not long ago, Ancestor Lin had sent a message that he could break through his bottleneck in three years and step into the legendary realm. However, now, the master of the Great Abyss clearly would not give him much time.
After the appearance of the Great Abyss’s owner and news of this spread, many wealthy families began to speculate what huge matter the Lin family had stirred up to provoke the Great Abyss’s owner to this extent?
Countless families also sent out their spies and scouts, either in the open or in the dark. However, the Xiao family, who had something to do with this, kept quiet. No matter who came, they did not say anything about this matter. Clearly, they did not want to get involved in this.
It was not known which family was well-informed that finally obtained some information from the Xiao family. They knew that the Lin family had actually angered the Great Abyss’ Master because of that Saint Child of the Lin family.
“Originally, we heard that a peerless genius of the Lin family broke through and provoked the master of the Great Abyss, but we don’t know the exact situation. They are also unwilling to say, but there is one thing that is definitely related to the Lin family’s Saint Child.”
When this news spread, the Qi Mountain County’s wealthy families were in an uproar.
“It’s actually caused by this Lin family’s Saint Child. Looks like fortune and calamity really rely on each other! Having a genius might not necessarily be a good thing.”
“If it’s only because of one person, I’m afraid there’s still some hope. If they hand over the Lin family’s Saint Child, the master of the Great Abyss can calm his anger.”
“That’s right, this is the smarter choice.”
“Although that Lin family’s Saint Child might be considered a prodigy of his generation and the hope of the Lin family, compared to the matter of the Lin family being annihilated, it’s better to hand him over. At the very least, the Lin family will have a chance to catch their breath!”
In Qi Mountain County, many families were guessing the outcome of this matter and also thinking of various methods. However, no one felt that the Lin family could face the Great Abyss’ Lord head on.
This was because it was impossible! One had to know that many years ago, the master of the Great Abyss had once caused a bloody storm in the Northern Azure Province. Even if the Qi Mountain County’s families joined forces, they were no match for him. Even the ferocious beasts in the Great Abyss retreated. Could the Lin family fight him alone? It was a joke.
This matter did not only spread in Qi Mountain County. What the Great Abyss’s owner said also spread throughout the entire Northern Azure Province.
“I didn’t expect that voice to be his? He, the master of the Great Abyss, is actually still alive!”
In the ancient forest, thin mist curled up, and a white crane flew. With a bright idea, the two old men sat opposite each other and played chess. After hearing this news, they could not help but frown. They said in unison, “Looks like the Lin family is in trouble.”
…
In the Qi Zuo County that was connected to Qi Mountain County, in a small school in a remote mountain village, the sound of books being read could be heard. That small thatched house also contained a faint scholarly aura.
The person teaching the children was a refined middle-aged man.
At the same time that the huge abyss lit up with a pillar of light that shot into the sky, he frowned. He put down the book in his hand and walked out of the school to look into the distance.
“Through reincarnation of yin and yang, through the flow of time, he still doesn’t lose his vitality! He’s really a centipede that doesn’t vanish even after death. With this encounter, the Lin family will suffer a calamity!”
…
In a mountain range far from Qi Mountain County, the roars of the beasts and the lightning finally stopped.
Earth and rocks shattered, and the mountain collapsed. The ground was covered in divine blood that contained lightning. A single-horned flood dragon let out a whimper in the rubble. Its 30,000 foot long body was covered in scales, and its flesh and blood were exposed. One could vaguely see ghastly white bones.
A skinny old man landed from the sky. His skinny palm was like an eagle’s claw as it stirred in the flood dragon’s eyes. Blood that was emitting lightning flowed out of the flood dragon’s eyes. The skinny old man directly took out a five-colored pearl that could cover his palm. The pearl flowed with light and was not ordinary, but the old man did not look at it much. He only placed it in and chewed. The skinny old man looked into the distance.
That was the location of Qi Mountain County.
The shriveled old man’s lips curled up into an arc as he pulled out a smile and said, “Looks like we can watch a good show.”
At this moment, a faint figure suddenly appeared in the void.
The figure could be vaguely seen cupping his hands and said, “Ancestor, that Lin family can be considered to have formed a good relationship with the dynasty. Now that they’re in trouble, should we send people to assist them? Moreover, we heard that a Saint Child has appeared in the Lin family…”
The thin old man’s smile turned cold instead. He grabbed with his hand, and the figure turned corporeal from illusory before being slapped over. The figure was instantly stunned.
“What assistance? I’ve said it before. We’ll just watch the show now.”
“If the Lin family can survive this calamity, we can always just bring that Saint Child over…”
