Chapter 664: Blood Stains the Upper Realm, the God of Slaughter Wanders
After the bloody massacre at the Valley of Ten Thousand Immortals ended, Lin Xuan did not stop his footsteps.
Like an ancient fierce beast freed from its shackles, he began to wander throughout the Upper Realm.
His blood-red eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for his next prey.
Nezha and Zhang Wuji followed closely behind, but they never dared to get too close.
The lesson from just moments ago made them understand that the current Lin Xuan no longer recognized anyone.
"We must find a way to stop him," Zhang Wuji said through gritted teeth.
"If this continues, the entire Upper Realm will be slaughtered by him."
"How do we stop him?" Nezha said with a bitter smile.
"His current strength has already reached the mid-stage of the Integration Stage."
"And it is still constantly increasing; we are simply no match for him."
Just as the two were speaking, Lin Xuan had already locked onto his next target.
A hundred miles ahead, there was a city of cultivators named Heavenly Wind City.
This was a famous trading hub of the Upper Realm, where thousands of cultivators gathered year-round.
Lin Xuan's figure flashed, and he vanished from the spot in an instant.
When he appeared again, he had already arrived above Heavenly Wind City.
The cultivators in the city felt a terrifying pressure and looked up one after another.
When they saw the blood-colored figure suspended in the sky, everyone was stunned.
"Who is that? Such a terrifying aura."
"Wait, that person looks like Lin Xuan?"
"What? The Lin Xuan who wiped out the Azure Cloud Sect?"
"No, his aura is even more terrifying than the legends say."
Before the discussions could end, Lin Xuan had already launched an attack.
"Creation: Destruction Storm!"
Terrifying blood-colored energy descended from the sky, instantly enveloping the entire city.
Wherever this energy went, everything was destroyed.
Buildings collapsed, the ground cracked, and the cultivators were swallowed by the energy before they could react.
"Ah! Help me!"
The shrill, miserable screams resounded through the sky, but they soon fell into silence.
In just a few short minutes, the prosperous Heavenly Wind City had turned into a ruin.
Thousands of cultivators were not spared; all died in this indiscriminate massacre.
Lin Xuan slowly descended to the center of the ruins, greedily absorbing the smell of blood in the air.
Every slaughter made the bloodline within his body more active.
His strength was also steadily increasing, getting closer and closer to the late-stage of the Integration Stage.
"Lin Xuan! Have you gone mad?" Nezha finally could not help but rush up.
"These people are all innocent; why did you kill them?"
Lin Xuan turned slowly, his blood-red eyes staring at Nezha.
In his current consciousness, this person was merely a noisy enemy.
"Get lost."
These two simple words contained a terrifying killing intent.
Nezha felt that killing intent, and his body trembled involuntarily.
The current Lin Xuan was stronger than before; his aura alone was difficult for him to endure.
Zhang Wuji hurriedly pulled Nezha back, stopping him from continuing to provoke Lin Xuan.
"Let's go, now is not the time."
The two could only watch helplessly as Lin Xuan left Heavenly Wind City to continue searching for his next target.
The news spread extremely fast; within half a day, the entire Upper Realm knew of the tragedy at Heavenly Wind City.
Thousands of cultivators slaughtered in an instant—this terrifying news made everyone's blood run cold.
Heavenly Sword Sect, Great Hall of Deliberation.
"Confirmed, Heavenly Wind City has indeed been razed to the ground," the Law Enforcement Elder reported.
"No survivors were found at the scene; everyone is dead."
"And judging from the residual energy fluctuations, it was indeed the work of Lin Xuan."
Jian Wuchen's expression was as gloomy as water.
"His strength has increased again; he is at least at the mid-stage of the Integration Stage now."
"At this rate, I fear he will soon break through to the late-stage."
"Sect Master, we must take action," an Elder said hurriedly.
"If this continues, the entire Upper Realm will be slaughtered by him."
"Take action?" Jian Wuchen sneered.
"You go take action?"
"Even Xue Tutian, that powerhouse at the mid-stage of the Mahayana Stage, died at his hands."
"If we cultivators at the Integration Stage go, we are just throwing our lives away."
The Elders all fell silent after hearing this.
Indeed, with their strength, dealing with Lin Xuan is no different from seeking their own deaths.
"Are we just going to watch him continue his slaughter?" someone asked, unwilling to accept this.
"For now, we have no other choice," Jian Wuchen sighed.
"Activate the mountain-protecting Array; all disciples are forbidden from going out."
"Send people to contact other sects to see if there are any better methods."
At the same time, the Profound Heaven Gate was also holding an emergency meeting.
"Lin Xuan has gone completely mad," Xuantianzi said in a deep voice.
"He is now nothing but a monster who only knows how to kill."
"Regardless of righteous or evil, regardless of strong or weak, he kills everyone he sees."
"Sect Leader, what should we do?" the Elders asked.
"Seal the mountain!" Xuantianzi said decisively.
"Activate the thousand-year Array; no one is allowed to enter or leave the mountain gate."
"At the same time, send people to notify subordinate forces and have them prepare their defenses as well."
"I don't know how long this storm will last; we must prioritize saving our own lives first."
The reaction of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple was even more intense.
Abbot Fahui directly ordered the activation of the Buddha Sect's strongest defensive Array.
"Namo Amitabha Buddha," Fahui said, pressing his palms together.
"The killing karma on Lin Xuan is too heavy; he has fallen too deep into the demonic path."
"He is now a great demonic fiend who kills every living person he encounters."
"We must protect the disciples within the temple well; we cannot let them become prey for this demon."
All the major sects made similar reactions.
Sealing their mountains and closing their gates, activating defensive Arrays, and forbidding disciples from going out.
The entire Upper Realm fell into an unprecedented panic.
Cultivators turned pale at the mention of Lin, fearing they would encounter this god of slaughter.
And Lin Xuan's slaughter continued.
After leaving Tianfeng City, he found a gathering place for rogue cultivators in the Green Lotus Mountain Range.
Over three hundred rogue cultivators without sects were gathered here.
Their strength was not great; they were just huddled together here for warmth.
But in Lin Xuan's eyes, these people were all prey.
"Creation: Blood Sea Massacre!"
Terrifying blood-colored energy swept across the entire mountain range.
The rogue cultivators didn't even have a chance to flee before they were torn to pieces by the energy.
Over three hundred lives vanished in an instant, and the Green Lotus Mountain Range turned into a hell on earth.
Lin Xuan stood in the pool of blood, feeling his strength improve once again.
Peak of the mid-stage Integration Stage!
He was only one step away from the late stage.
For the next few days, Lin Xuan wandered throughout the Upper Realm like a god of death.
Every cultivator he encountered, regardless of gender, age, righteousness, evil, or strength, was slaughtered by him.
Small sects were trampled flat, and rogue cultivator gathering points were wiped out.
Even some merchant caravans and traveling cultivators could not escape their doom.
The entire Upper Realm was shrouded in a haze of bloody terror.
Nezha and Zhang Wuji were still following behind, but they were becoming increasingly desperate.
Every time they tried to dissuade him, they were repelled by Lin Xuan's killing intent.
The Lin Xuan of now was no longer the person they knew.
"If this continues, he will really kill every cultivator in the entire Upper Realm," Zhang Wuji said painfully.
"We must find a way to contact Senior Hunyuanzi," Nezha said, gritting his teeth.
"Only he might be able to stop Lin Xuan."
But when they rushed back to the Ten Thousand Immortal Valley, what they saw was an even more desperate scene.
