Chapter 172: Lin Jiufeng, a Kindhearted Commoner

Lin Jiufeng’s words infuriated the people from the four great traditional Dao sects.

If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Jiufeng had just defeated two Boundless Realm powerhouses from the Zenith Heaven Path Sect, they would’ve already surrounded Lin Jiufeng and turned him into ashes.

To these people, Lin Jiufeng’s words and actions were an insult.

For the sake of their founding ancestor’s relic, the four great traditional Dao sects had shed all pretense of cordiality and started a massacre against each other.

But today, someone arrived all of a sudden and told them that he was delaying the emergence of the relic that they were trying so hard to obtain for 100 years?

Was he joking?

They glared at Lin Jiufeng.

Immediately afterwards, they unanimously released their hatred toward Lin Jiufeng.

In the array formation of the Four Symbols Purgatory Array, thick fog rolled and covered everything. Lin Jiufeng’s figure was faintly discernible inside, but his face seemed to be surrounded by a mist.

Lin Jiufeng faced the four great traditional Dao sects on his own.

He declared.

“Go back to where you came from. I am sealing this relic once again.”

“A clown who only hides in the dark who doesn’t even dare to show his face actually dares to be so arrogant?”

“You are indeed powerful, but your strength is only because of this array formation, right?”

“The four symbols—in other words—the foundation of this array formation of yours is already in our hands! As long as we break this formation of yours, you will die without a proper burial!”

“Oh, come on. You just want to take that relic for yourself, am I right? To think that you can even sound so righteous despite being so arrogant and shameless. Waiting for 100 more years is impossible for us, it would be too late by then.”

“That is the relic of our Dao Sects’ ancestor. An outsider like you shan’t interfere!”

“That’s right!”

“We advise you to surrender…”

“The four symbols which serve as the foundation of this formation of yours are already in our hands.”

The powerhouses from the four major Dao sects spoke one after another.

Each one of them wore ferocious looks on their faces.

They looked at the four statues that were currently being held captive by four Boundless Realm experts. Their confidence rose exponentially, thinking that Lin Jiufeng was only powerful because of the array formation.

In the current stage of the world’s spiritual energy recovery, the people from the Dao sects didn’t believe that anyone could surpass their cultivation bases in the Boundless Realm.

It was simply unimaginable for them.

Therefore, it must only because of the array formation that Lin Jiufeng was able to defeat one of them.

After Lin Jiufeng heard their words, the corner of his mouth curled up. In the array formation and within the thick fog, he said softly, “Do you lot really think that this array formation is that easy to subdue?”

Lin Jiufeng found it interesting. The Four Symbols Purgatory Array was something that he received from signing in at the Land of Extreme Negative Energy. It was an understatement to say that it was extremely powerful.

It had displayed a mere fraction of its power just now.

“Hmph! We are already suppressing these four symbols of yours. What’s the use of being so stubborn?” A powerhouse from one of the Dao sects coldly rebuked.

A domain materialized behind him and pressed down. It suppressed the Black Tortoise.

The Black Tortoise stood motionless.

The powerhouse looked on proudly.

What bullsh*t Four Symbols Purgatory Array?

The name might be imposing, but it’s only this strong?

But he didn’t notice that a trace of ridicule appeared in the Black Tortoise’s eyes.

In the Four Symbols Purgatory Array, Lin Jiufeng looked at the Dao sect powerhouse and smiled slightly. “Since you are that confident, let’s see if you can handle the true might of the Four Symbols Purgatory Array.”

Boom!

As soon as Lin Jiufeng’s words fell, a tremendous force rushed out of the formation.

The force that suppressed the relic of the Northern Mountains Lord appeared.

The true might of the Four Symbols Purgatory Array was finally revealed at this moment.

Its vast energy surged, rolled, and dived into the Black Tortoise’s body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ferocity flashed in the Black Tortoise’s eyes. Its huge body suddenly raised and directly lifted the domain that was pressing down on it. Then, it bit down and its sharp teeth pierced through the domain of the Dao sect powerhouse.

It pulled and ruthlessly tore the domain apart.

The domain of the Dao sect powerhouse was instantly torn apart.

He let out a cry of surprise and anger as he retreated in a hurry.

He reached out and struck decisively.

His attack smashed against the Black Tortoise’s body with a bang.

But the Black Tortoise didn’t care at all.

Its huge mouth bit down on the Dao sect powerhouse’s arm, then it directly tore the arm apart.

Clack!

An arm was torn off.

The pain made the Dao sect powerhouse scream.

His expression distorted as he continued his frantic retreat.

But how could the Black Tortoise let him escape?

The energy in its body shook and radiated in all directions.

The space around the Black Tortoise immediately became akin to that of a quagmire.

The Dao sect powerhouse couldn’t escape even if he wanted to.

It was like he was deep in the mud.

He became as slow as a turtle.

He could only watch as the Black Tortoise approached and bit down with its bloody mouth.

Boom!

His head was directly bitten off.

His Divine Soul wanted to escape, but he couldn’t even do so.

His Divine Soul was directly devoured by the Black Tortoise.

The Black Tortoise let out a roar. It raised its head and glared.

The true might of a divine beast demanded worship from its surroundings.

Roar!

A roar reverberated throughout the ancient city.

Many people looked at the Black Tortoise’s huge body in horror.

And at this moment, the trapped Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, and White Tiger all displayed their true might. They broke free and crushed the Dao sects’ powerhouses with their powerful strength.

The Azure Dragon swam in the air.

A roar was immediately followed by a scorching dragon flame that fell like rain.

Boom!

A Daoist priest who had just recently entered the Boundless Realm directly exploded, his Divine Soul was annihilated in the blink of an eye.

The Azure Dragon toward the air.

Its huge body occupied half of the sky above the divine temple.

The Vermillion Bird was the same.

It pounced at breakneck speeds.

With a cry and a gust of wind, a Daoist priest’s life ended right there and then.

The White Tiger was the cruelest against its enemies. It pounced into the group of Daoist priests and like a wolf in a sheep’s den. Its wild nature erupted. It directly bit to death, anyone that it saw. Those grazed by its claws either died in an instant or suffered grievous injuries.

At this moment, the Four Symbols Purgatory Array showed its true might to the world. The members of the four great traditional Dao sects were terrified. They made a frantic retreat to avoid these four divine beasts.

But the four divine beasts refused to let them off.

They were furious and wanted to kill.

When the members of the four great traditional Dao sects were finally out of the ancient city, it was only when they were far away did the four divine beasts calmed down. They stood in the four cardinal directions and simultaneously let out deafening roars.

Then…

They turned into stone statues that protected the four directions of the Northern Mountains Ancient City. Of course, this included the Northern Mountains Lord’s relic.

From now on, no one was allowed to make trouble in the ancient city.

Especially in the divine temple.

If a fool dared to do so, then the four divine beasts would gladly take their lives.

When the four Daoist sects saw this scene, they gritted their teeth, their hearts bleeding.

The relic of the Dao sects’ ancestor.

The Daoist Scripture that the Dao Sects wanted to obtain for so many generations.

The secrets to the Immortal Realm.

They were now unattainable.

Just a few hours earlier, the four great traditional Dao sects surrounded the ancient city and even tried to stop each other from entering and taking the first dibs.

But now, they didn’t even dare to enter anymore.

What happened in a span of two hours was simply a nightmare for these Dao sects.

The Four Symbols Purgatory Array was like a ghost that caught them off guard.

Lin Jiufeng, who was in the array formation, didn’t even make a move on his own.

The four statues alone forced them into submission.

“This relic will emerge into the world in 100 years. Those from the Dao Sects are not allowed to act presumptuously in the Northern Mountains Ancient City!”

Lin Jiufeng’s cold voice reverberated in the surroundings and also throughout the world.

The people from the Dao sects watched and listened in silence.

They felt wronged, but they couldn’t do anything at all.

“Who exactly are you?” A Daoist Perfected One gritted his teeth and asked.

“I’m just a kindhearted commoner!” Lin Jiufeng replied.

He was truly kindhearted.

He didn’t want to see people of the Northern Mountains Race suffer, so he decided to help.

He originally had nothing to do with this matter at all.

Hence, he described himself as a kindhearted commoner by helping.

But would these people from the Dao sects believe him?

Of course, they didn’t!

All of them wore strange expressions on their faces.

Are you trying to deceive children here?!
