第三千八百六十八章 神秘的天元侯

Lin Xuan took a deep breath, his heart filled with profound reflections. Although the battle had successfully eliminated a formidable enemy, it left an indelible impact on him.

Firstly, Lin Xuan put away his arrogance.

It was undeniable that since entering the domain realm, he had become somewhat overconfident or even arrogant. This was not unusual; becoming a domain powerhouse was something every cultivator aspired to achieve. Even Lin Xuan could not escape this tendency after achieving such an objective.

With his hard-fought success, it was natural for him to feel elated and proud. However, the problem lay in how excessively he had allowed himself to become arrogant. His strength already far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators; challenging them at a higher level was as easy as eating or drinking water.

Now that he had mastered his domain, he felt invincible. While it would be an exaggeration to say he was unbeatable, he no longer believed anyone could pose a threat to him. The entire world seemed within reach, including scattered immortals and demon kings, true demons from the primordial era—Lin Xuan began to look down on them all.

Such thoughts were undoubtedly foolish. Fortunately, Lin Xuan wasn't truly a self-aggrandizing person; this experience served as a timely reminder not to underestimate any hero in the world. There were countless extraordinary individuals and strange beings within the Three Realms, and域外天魔were unpredictable and bizarre beyond comprehension. The assembly had nearly cost him his life, with three of them exploding just before he could escape their array.

Although he managed to extricate himself from danger, the harrowing experience couldn't be brushed off lightly. If he had employed his domain from the start instead of foolishly playing cat-and-mouse, he wouldn't have been trapped by the demon array. This would have prevented all that followed.

Arrogance and self-importance often led to trouble, which didn't suit Lin Xuan's usual character. A trace of self-deprecating humor appeared at the corner of his mouth. Having recognized his shortcomings, he wouldn't make the same mistake again.

The journey ahead required caution. Lin Xuan scanned his surroundings with his divine sense and the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye, combining both techniques to locate the array’s center.

Time passed slowly until a sudden movement in his brows signaled success. A look of joy spread across his face as he had found the array's core.

Without hesitation, Lin Xuan flicked his hands, merging Black Water Deva Sword into a massive black blade. The surface emitted swirling符文, heavy and imposing like mountains, slicing through the air with force.

A "pfft" sound echoed in his ears as a black line shot from the blade’s surface, tearing through the void before striking an empty space.

As for a minor note, you can search WeChat for “Bailianchengxian Huanyu” to add Huan Yu and get updates on the latest dynamics, photos, and videos of Huan Yu and Bailianchengxian. Thank you.

Suddenly,法则之力interwoven with various strange whistles formed a massive light halo that rapidly expanded outward. The space blurred momentarily before distorting the surroundings…

Boom!

A loud explosion reverberated as the light halo transformed into a storm, brighter than the sun. A strong gale swept across for several minutes until the scene returned to clarity.

The array was broken.

Lin Xuan’s face showed satisfaction; even though the Red Lotus Dust Array was formidable, without an operator, it couldn't truly block him.

He raised his hand, and a series of colorful array flags flew past in a blur. There were nearly a hundred of them.

It wasn’t surprising given the array's immense power required diverse tools for its construction. Lin Xuan stuffed them into his storage belt.

This array could even confine his domain; he would study it thoroughly later.

After this arduous battle, the rewards were plentiful. Lin Xuan’s body was enveloped in a green glow before vanishing into the horizon.

...

The area returned to silence.

Two hours passed.

Woo…

Suddenly, an extremely peculiar sound of air breaking reached his ears. A bright light appeared on the distant horizon and rapidly approached.

Initially far away, it quickly closed the distance, flashing several times before coming to a halt in front of him.

The sound abruptly ceased as the light dimmed, revealing a splendid carriage floating in mid-air.

The carriage was crafted from some precious spiritual wood, its body golden with an enchanting fragrance. The intricate符文adorned the surface, exuding a mysterious aura reminiscent of ancient array diagrams, offering powerful protective effects.

The pulling spirit beast resembled neither dragon nor tiger but had wings on its back and four legs, emitting a formidable presence not inferior to that of a late-stage 分神期cultivator.

Such a spirit beast being used for transportation indicated the owner’s high status. The carriage hovered in mid-air as a figure emerged from it.

A middle-aged man around forty years old stood there, dressed in brocade robes and jade belt, wearing a green jade crown with long chest-length beard flowing in the breeze. His demeanor was truly impressive.

At first glance, he looked like a king or lord of the secular world.

However, if Lin Xuan were here, he would be speechless. For this man was shockingly familiar to him—Heavenly元侯.

The one who had chased Lin Xuan to the brink of death, nearly forcing him into a corner, and later been tricked by him, leaving his avatar decimated. His true form, having offended a major force in this realm, became a pariah, relentlessly pursued like a rat.

True Sect’s absolute order was no joke.

It was said that Heavenly元侯 had been pushed to the brink of extinction but never resurfaced since then. Many believed he had perished.

Over time, Lin Xuan had long forgotten about him. He couldn’t have imagined that circumstances would change so drastically, bringing this man back into his life.

Moreover, today’s Heavenly元侯 seemed far more formidable than before. Back then, when Lin Xuan was at the late-stage 分神期, he hadn't even made it through the middle-stage渡劫; now, he was a completely different person.
