Chapter 27: Lin Hao Jumps Off the Cliff, Encounters Supreme Fortune?

Xiaoxiao nodded; although she did not look very reliable, she was not ambiguous at all when it came to getting things done!

She said solemnly: "You, you must separate a strand of divine soul and brand it onto the Heaven-Connecting Token; I will head to the Taixuan Realm immediately!"

"Good!"

Lin Potian separated a strand of divine soul, which instantly fell into the Heaven-Connecting Token!

This strand of divine soul contained Lin Potian's thoughts and memories; except for lacking cultivation, it was no different from his own personal arrival!

In other words, this strand of divine soul was equivalent to Lin Potian arriving in person!

As for why he did not attach his cultivation...

Lin Potian truly dared not gamble.

If it were discovered by the Emperor Alliance and the True Immortals of the Longevity Family behind it, the consequences... would be unimaginable!

Lin Potian was not afraid, but he had weaknesses and concerns.

Therefore, he could not act rashly; he must not strike unless necessary, but once he did, he must eradicate them all!

Leave not one behind!

Whoosh...!

The Heaven-Connecting Token broke through the air and left, its speed unimaginably fast!

As he drew closer and closer to the Taixuan Realm, Lin Potian could feel the bloodline of his clansmen more and more!

He also immediately locked onto Lin Hao!

For a heaven-proud clansman like this, the bloodline concentration was far higher than that of ordinary clansmen; like a crane in a flock of chickens, he could be spotted at a glance!

At the same time, at the Lin Family Ancestral Land.

A dejected youth climbed the back mountain of the Lin Family step by step, his footsteps stopping at the edge of a ten-thousand-foot cliff.

His eyes were vacant as he muttered: "Only two trees can make a forest; Brother, why did you treat me like this? Tomorrow is the Imperial Clan Competition of the Taixuan Realm, and I have now become a cripple; what more can I do for the Lin Family? The ancient books of the clan say that a Lin clansman once obtained supreme fortune after falling off a cliff; I wonder if it is true or false? I hope it is true; if it is false, a cripple like me... if I die, then I die."

The youth gave a miserable smile, opened his arms, closed his eyes, and his mouth twitched, "I hope there really is a supreme fortune; I am not committing suicide, I am not that cowardly, it is just... I really have no other way! Ancestor, I hope you protect me!"

After finishing his pious prayer, the youth immediately leaped down!

He did not hesitate at all!

Looking closer, this youth...

Was actually Lin Hao!

At the same time, the Heaven-Connecting Token arrived rapidly, breaking through the air, ignoring the Protective Clan Array supported by the Immortal Cauldron, and entered the Lin Family directly!

It headed straight for the back mountain!

Seeing this scene from afar, Lin Potian's pupils suddenly constricted!

His heart was filled with grief, and even more so with a touch of disappointment!

He had not expected that the descendant Lin Hao, in whom he had placed high hopes and whom he had been worried about, would actually choose to... commit suicide!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, roar, roar, roar!

The sound of the wind whistled in Lin Hao's ears; he tried his best to maintain his balance, eyes opened to their widest, looking downward to see if there was any supreme fortune!

Finally, he saw clearly!

There was nothing, only a few white bones!

At this moment, he was less than five thousand meters from the bottom of the cliff!

"Damn it, I was lied to by my ancestors!"

Lin Hao panicked immediately; he only wanted to find fortune, he really did not want to commit suicide!

Although he truly could not accept the fact that his brother Lin Yi had dug out his Supreme Bone and betrayed the clan, he wanted to contribute to the Lin Family in tomorrow's Imperial Clan Competition of the Taixuan Realm even more!

Thus, he had truly believed what was written in the clan's ancient records and wanted to come over to try his luck!

As a result, he was miserably scammed by his ancestors!

In his panic, Lin Hao wanted to grab the stone wall, but the wall was covered in moss!

Unsurprisingly, he slipped and fell again!

With a bang!

Lin Hao only felt his back hit something that seemed like a tree, and his fall did stop, but it felt very strange...

Was the tree behind him moving?

And it seemed to have a bloody smell, as well as a foul stench?

Turning his head to look...

"Ahhh, damn it! There really is a Black Sun Shining Gold Python!"

He saw a giant snake whose length could not be seen at a glance, with two small bumps on its head, its body pitch-black, and snake scales like ink, hissing and twisting its head to flick its tongue at Lin Hao!

And he had landed exactly on its seven-inch spot!

Lin Hao's face turned pale to the extreme; the clan's ancient records not only said there was a supreme fortune at the bottom of the cliff, but also that there was a terrifying Black Sun Shining Gold Python on the cliff face that was about to transform into a flood dragon!

He did not expect the supreme fortune to be fake, but the Black Sun Shining Gold Python to be real!!

Hiss—!

The Black Sun Shining Gold Python opened its bloody maw and bit toward Lin Hao!

The incredibly foul stench almost made Lin Hao pass out; he immediately looked at the distance to the bottom of the cliff, which was now less than three thousand meters, and Lin Hao estimated whether he would be buried in the snake's belly, or if he should gamble on whether this distance would be enough to fall to his death?

Hiss—!

The Black Sun Shining Gold Python's bloody maw did not wait for anyone and was already close at hand!

Lin Hao did not think, and had no time to think, so he leaped again!

But this time he was smarter; he moved directly toward the moss-covered stone wall, embedding his ten fingers into the wall to slow his descent.

But the Black Sun Shining Gold Python was actually... still chasing!

The snake head flicked, muscles tensed, and it plummeted straight down!

Its speed was far faster than his!

Lin Hao gritted his teeth and looked down; there was only a thousand meters left, not enough to kill him from a fall anymore!

Without hesitation, he jumped!

Bang!

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Lin Hao landed in a disoriented heap, but it was no big deal; although his Supreme Bone had been seized and his cultivation realm had fallen, leaving him only as a cultivator at the early stage of the Four Extremities Secret Realm, this height was still no problem!

"Should be, sa..."

Lin Hao stood up while holding his waist, patting his chest in relief at having survived the ordeal, but before he could finish his sentence...

Boom, boom, boom!

A sound of snake scales rubbing against the stone wall came from above!

Subconsciously, he looked up...

The head of the Black Sun Shining Gold Python was constantly enlarging; in Lin Hao's eyes, there was nothing left but a snake head as massive as a building!

Only then did Lin Hao see the full length of the Black Sun Shining Gold Python's body; it was actually equivalent to the height of this cliff!

It was a full ten thousand zhang long!

Foul-smelling saliva dripped onto Lin Hao's face, and only one thought remained in his mind:

"So long... so huge!!"

Just as Lin Hao was in despair, a sudden change occurred!

Ding, a trembling chime was heard!

A command token flew through the air, constantly enlarging, and blocked the space above Lin Hao's head!

The Black Sun Shining Gold Python's pupils froze, subconsciously wanting to brake, but it was useless; the token shone with a bright white light and sucked it straight inside!

The entire process took less than a second, and the ten-thousand-zhang snake body was completely sucked into it!

Immediately, the token fell to the ground.

And this token... was precisely the Heaven-Connecting Token!

Lin Potian, or to be precise, a divine soul of Lin Potian, was standing behind Lin Hao at this moment, looking disappointed.

To be honest, Lin Potian felt that this talented descendant was a bit cowardly for using suicide to escape reality.

Gulp—!

Lin Hao swallowed hard; having witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he was completely dumbfounded and stood there in a daze!

He had no thoughts at all, just stunned!

The wind blew gently, and Lin Hao shivered, waking up. He knelt down toward the few white skeletons in front of him and exclaimed with great joy: "The ancestors did not deceive me; there really is a treasure at the bottom of this cliff. Lin Hao has been very offensive in his heart before, and I hope the ancestors will forgive me!"

Bang, bang, bang! He kowtowed three times!

Immediately, he tucked the Heaven-Connecting Token into his sleeve as if it were a precious treasure and prepared to leave without looking back!

Anything that could take away the Black Sun Shining Gold Python was definitely a great treasure!

Take it away first, then study it!

Lin Potian clicked his tongue secretly and couldn't help but speak: "Are you not even going to look back? This thing is mine; you're just going to take it away so peaceably? Did no one tell you that before obtaining a treasure, you need to check if the surrounding environment is safe?"

Lin Hao froze and whipped his head around!

He saw a young man with a slender figure, a face like polished jade, and red lips and white teeth appearing before him, looking at him with a speechless expression.

It was as if he had done something he shouldn't have, a lecturing look that he had only ever seen on the face of his brother, Lin Yi.

This expression made Lin Hao very unhappy!

But the most critical thing was that he had never seen this young man before!

He was definitely not a member of the Lin Family!

Lin Hao was extremely vigilant and barked: "Who are you? Why do you appear in my Lin Family? If you don't tell the truth, be careful, or I won't be polite to you! Also, you say it's yours, so it must be yours? Then I say it's mine!"

Lin Potian shook his head and said calmly: "You have committed another major taboo. Since I dare to appear before you so openly, it means my strength is definitely much higher than yours. How can you talk about not being polite to me? Instead, have you considered your own safety?"

"Tell me, what is the correct way to act?"

Lin Potian finally understood why Lin Hao's father, Lin Bufan, said he was immature, and why he hadn't even told him that he himself was not dead. After this first contact, he was indeed... very immature!

As for Lin Hao not recognizing him, Lin Potian was not angry about that; it wasn't his fault, as he was using his appearance from his youth, and there were no portraits of him looking like this in the Lin Family. In other words, the entire Lin Family wouldn't recognize him.

But Lin Hao had too many problems of his own; not only did he commit suicide and snatch treasures on sight, but most importantly, he didn't know how to assess the situation!

This was the most serious problem!

The Heavens are never short of talents, but only those who know how to be flexible and know how to assess the situation can survive!

When one is weak, if one cannot even protect their own life, how can one talk about the future?

Lin Hao looked Lin Potian up and down again, laughed in anger, and said: "The correct way... correct, why should I tell you? What right do you have to teach me how to do things? Who exactly are you?"

After saying this, spiritual light surged on his body, ready to take action at the slightest disagreement!

Lin Hao keenly discovered that the young man in front of him was not a physical entity and had no cultivation at all!

Just like a lonely ghost!

No, even lonely ghosts have a thin trace of spiritual power, how could there be one like this young man?

It was simply too strange!

Forget it, just capture him first and then talk!
