Chapter 1280 The Arrogant Chi Lingxiao

The Stupa Tower was constructed from bones and stood three thousand feet tall like a pillar between heaven and earth.

Above it, the sky was choked by thick tribulation clouds, interrupted by only deafening claps of thunder and dazzling flashes of lightning. It unleashed such destructive power that it filled the area within a radius of thousands of miles with a terrifying, hair-raising atmosphere.

Lin Xun was battling among it, bathed in lightning and glowing dazzlingly like a divine being.

“It’s Demon God Lin!” someone exclaimed.

Cultivators neared the scene one after another, but when they realized that the cultivator overcoming tribulation was a famed heaven-defying character, they were all flabbergasted.

“It’s him...he is only now challenging the fourth longevity tribulation. How can he be compared with Yun Qingbai?”

The fiery-red haired man also came. He had a powerful and intimidating presence, especially with his imposing and built figure.

With a bewildered expression, he sized up Lin Xun who was challenging the fourth longevity tribulation.

Huh?

Suddenly, as though he sensed something, his eyes darted to the other side.

A graceful woman was bathed in illusory snow and ice. Her breathtakingly beautiful face was like the moon in the sky, and it had a detached indifference and was as pure as jade.

The woman also looked over with her clear eyes.

Their eyes met and they both recognized each other.

Chi Lingxiao!

Holy Maiden Lin Xue!

Then, they withdrew their gaze and ignored each other.

At the same time, there was a low commotion in the crowd. Many cultivators recognized Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue and couldn’t stop their countenance from changing.

In the present Upper Nine Realms, those able to make it onto the Genius Gold Rankings were considered giants.

Those able to rank in the top ten of the Genius Gold Rankings were said to be overlords, influential figures with astonishing aptitude, talent, and luck.

Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue were among the top ten of the Genius Golden Rankings!

Over the years, the rankings on the Genius Gold Rankings had changed every once in a while, but neither Chi Lingxiao nor Holy Maiden Lin Xue had ever fallen out of the top ten.

This achievement was enough to prove their frightening strength, and it was no wonder that their presence caused a commotion in the crowd.

“Lin Xue, there are rumors everywhere that Lin Xun made Yun Qingbai flee for his life, do you believe it?” Chi Lingxiao suddenly asked aloud. His deep voice had an aggressiveness and overbearingness that reached the heart.

He was like an overlord descending upon the world, always domineering and never displayed any flaws.

“Why don’t you go and ask him?” Holy Maiden Lin Xue’s voice was clear and bone-piercingly cold.

Chi Lingxiao chuckled, his eyes gleaming with a divine light as he cast a glance over at Lin Xun who was undergoing tribulation. “It’s pointless to ask him. After all, a verbal statement can’t be taken as proof. There’s only one way to know.”

Everyone pricked up their ears.

“Are you going to take action?” asked Holy Maiden Lin Xue thoughtfully.

Chi Lingxiao’s smile deepened, and he laughed in a more unrestrained manner. “No one knows me better than Holy Maiden Lin Xue. Yes, this is a rare opportunity, and of course I will not miss out on it!”

Many people felt a chill.

Everyone knew that ever since Chi Lingxiao came into the Ancient Wasteland Domain, he had taken down top figures among his peers one after another.

After entering the Supreme Realm, at least hundreds of talented geniuses had died in his hands!

As for other people who died in his hands, there were too many to be counted.

It was no exaggeration to say that he was a maniac killer! He was aggressive and domineering and always did whatever he wanted!

Now, he wanted to target Lin Xun. How could the others not be shocked?

“You likely will have your nose rubbed in dirt,” Holy Maiden Lin Xue uttered coldly. She was like ice but her grace and beauty were unparalleled.

“Hahaha.” Chi Lingxiao threw his head back and laughed skywards. “Lin Xun can’t stop me!”

His voice was powerful and resounding!

Whoever was as strong as him would likely have developed an invincible belief in his ability. Who would he be afraid of?

If Lin Xun was indeed a formidable opponent, then that would be fine. But if he did not live up to his fame, then Chi Lingxiao would not mind taking care of him.

The reason?

Did he need a reason to kill?

This was Chi Lingxiao. He was domineering, overbearing, arrogant, but also exceptionally strong. Otherwise, given his nature and temper, he likely would have gotten himself into trouble long ago.

Lin Xue said indifferently, “I just want to advise you to not do something stupid. Do you not remember what happened to Underworld Son and the Ancient Buddha Son? You should know the consequences of taking action.”

Sharpness flashed in Chi Lingxiao’s eyes. “I know you are trying to spur me on.”

Boom!

He suddenly rose into the air and roared, “Lin Xun, quickly end the tribulation, I’m waiting to have a showdown with you!”

His voice reverberated throughout the area and made everyone’s expression change.

Demon God Lin was undergoing a tribulation and might meet with catastrophe with one wrong move, but Chi Lingxiao chose this moment to challenge him. This was no doubt an act of sabotage!

The Seven Emotions Challenge tested one’s state of mind and fluctuation of emotions.

If Demon God Lin was distracted, then how would it end well for him?

In the distance, thunderstorms raged endlessly. Lin Xun looked to be in misery struggling within it, as if he could not hold on much longer.

It was unknown whether it was caused by Chi Lingxiao’s interference.

“Do you think that’s going too far?” Lin Xue glanced at Chi Lingxiao.

“This is a tribulation! Since he chose to undergo the tribulation here, he should have expected and prepared for external interference. He can’t blame anyone.”

Chi Lingxiao smiled brightly. “What’s more, if he can’t even endure such interference, he might as well be struck to death by lightning.”

Everyone exclaimed to themselves. So crazy, he really is too crazy. He always does whatever he wants without the slightest scruple.

Lin Xue said nothing else.

Although she could not stand Chi Lingxiao’s behavior, she would not stand up for Lin Xun. After all, she had never met Lin Xun, and they were nothing more than strangers.

She would not offend Chi Lingxiao just to help Lin Xun get out of trouble.

“Lin Xun, do you hear me? Reply if you do. Of course, even if you don’t agree, I will still take action later!” Chi Lingxiao yelled again.

Everyone gasped. If they were Lin Xun, they would never behave like Chi Lingxiao!

Under the lightning tribulation, Lin Xun was dripping with blood with his skin torn and flesh mangled. He appeared to be in a very terrible state.

His tribulations were different from that of other cultivators. It was more terrifying and abnormal than the previous every time.

He also knew that this was related to the path he pursued so he was already mentally prepared.

Even so, he still found it extremely difficult and dangerous. He had withstood unprecedented pressure to be able to survive to this point.

At that moment, Chi Lingxiao’s brazen and provocative voice irritated Lin Xun like the chattering call of a crow.

“Don’t worry, I will pull out your tongue and crush your mouth later!” His voice was like ice.

But because he had to talk, it diverted his attention from the tribulation for a second and caused him to be struck by lightning again, falling from midair.

Chi Lingxiao burst out laughing, “Okay, you must not die. Otherwise, you will become a laughing stock of the world.”

Everyone sighed. Chi Lingxiao’s actions were tantamount to completely offending Lin Xun.

However, everyone knew that, even if Lin Xun ascended to the fourth longevity tribulation stage, it would still be extremely difficult for him to defeat Chi Lingxiao, who had long reached this cultivation level!

Moreover, Chi Lingxiao was ranked higher than Underworld Son on the Genius Golden Rankings!ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ (f)ire

“Why isn’t it over yet? Are you too weak? Or is the lightning tribulation too strong for you?”

After a while, Chi Lingxiao lost his patience. “Hurry up, my time is precious, I don’t want to waste it on you.”

When a lightning tribulation struck, no one dared to get close to it, lest they get caught in the tribulation and suffer serious consequences, ranging from severe injuries to being completely obliterated.

This was also the reason why Lin Xun dared to challenge the tribulation so openly.

Since ancient times, who ever dared to sneak attack someone challenging a longevity tribulation?

It was no different from seeking death.

Of course, it was possible to distract or interfere the challenger or even sabotage them from afar with secret weapons.

However, cultivators often made preparations in advance and generally would be rarely disturbed by interference.

Similarly, it was rare to find secret weapons that could ruin a cultivator’s chance of overcoming the tribulation.

However, Lin Xun was undergoing the Seven Emotions Challenge, which directly affected his mood, emotions, and mental state, and so Chi Lingxiao’s noise disturbance had a miraculous effect!

This was why everyone thought that while Chi Lingxiao looked honorable and upright, in fact he was extremely cunning and underhanded.

“Can you actually do it?” Chi Lingxiao shouted again.

Some cultivators could not stand it anymore. The way he targeted Lin Xun was too obvious!

Boom!

At that moment, Lin Xun suddenly jerked out of the rolling tribulation clouds, and with a punch, smashed the lightning bolts in all directions!

Instantly, the heavenly tribulation subsided, leaving only bright flashes of light across the sky bathing Lin Xun.

His clothes were torn, his flesh were stained with blood, his hair was disheveled, and he looked extremely tragic.

However, his expression was surprisingly calm, and in his dark unfathomable eyes flashed a chilling murderous intent.

Hu—

He inhaled deeply, feeling the tremendous changes in his body of qi and settling his heart in his chest.

He passed!

The entire audience was shaken. This tribulation was absolutely unparalleled and eye-opening.

After passing the tribulation, Lin Xun had successfully broken through to the fourth longevity stage and his strength was destined to undergo significant improvement!

However, everyone was not amazed for too long because they followed Lin Xun’s gaze to look at Chi Lingxiao in the distance.

They anticipated a great battle!

Many cultivators also found Chi Lingxiao’s blatant provocative behavior just now unbearable.

“Were you not in a hurry? Come on then!” Lin Xun thundered, his voice cold and filled with killing intent.

He did not know who Chi Lingxiao was, but even if he did, he would not care.

“Do you not want to take a break? I don’t want to take advantage of your situation. When I win, they would say I had an unfair advantage in the duel and that would taint my reputation,” Chi Lingxiao said leisurely.

Everyone was speechless. When you provoked him and interfered in his tribulation, were you also not taking advantage of his situation?
