Chapter 1270 The Dao Endless Pagoda

Swoosh!

The aura of the Ghost King swept out from Lin Xun.

Lin Xun, who was tense and rigid, suddenly felt he gained a new lease of life. Everything that happened was like a nightmare.

“Lin Xun! Kid, did you not die?”

The anxious cry of the big black bird rang in Lin Xun’s ears. He turned his head and was greeted by the black bird’s nervous and concerned face.

“I’m fine.” Lin Xun shook his head, his face a little stiff and pale.

“Fellow Daoist, please move out of the way.”

Suddenly, Ghost King Xuan Kong appeared and stared at the big black bird.

Move out of the way?

The big black bird was taken aback at first before he cursed out loud, “I am already imprisoned here by you, so how can I move out of the way?”

Smash the pot once it is cracked!

“Please!”

Ghost King Xuan Kong ignored the big black bird and waved his sleeve. Instantly, a gust of black wind carried the black bird away from the area.

Lin Xun’s dark eyes narrowed.

“Junior brother, don’t worry, he will be fine.”

Ghost King Xuan Kong turned to look at Lin Xun, his face as stern and unfaltering as before, but Lin Xun found his attitude much gentler towards him.

Ghost King Xuan Kong gestured to Lin Xun to take a seat in front of the thousands-foot-high altar. He no longer had the fierce and ferocious air around him.

His back was as straight as a spear. Despite sitting down, he still radiated the feeling of being as mighty and unshakeable as a towering mountain.

“Junior brother, if you hadn’t come in time, I likely would have stepped onto a path of no return and become a bloodthirsty, murderous demon.

“Fortunately, we are fated to meet here, which awakened me from endless hatred.”

Ghost King Xuan Kong’s eyes softened with a hint of optimism and calmness.

It was also at this moment that Lin Xun finally dared to believe that the majestic and strange man before him was indeed a pinnacle Big Saint who once shook the world!

“Elder, you…mistaken me for the wrong person.”

Lin Xun kept quiet for a moment and finally confessed. He knew that he could not deceive a veteran cultivator such as Ghost King Xuan Kong. And if he was exposed, the consequences would be much more serious, so it was better to be honest and confess.

“I won’t be mistaken,” Ghost King Xuan Kong stated calmly. “The Dao Endless Pagoda is a precious weapon of our sect. Since it is in your hands then you must have received recognition by Master.”

Dao Endless Pagoda!

Lin Xun’s heart pounded in his chest. He had never known about the origin of the Nameless Pagoda, but because he noticed the mysterious word ‘less’ engraved on the pagoda, he named it the Nameless Pagoda.

Only now did he know the real name of the pagoda──Dao Endless!

“But…” Lin Xun stuttered. “I only accidentally acquired the pagoda. I know nothing about the origin and background of it.”

Ghost King Xuan Kong Ghost King looked surprised “Have you not discovered the mystery hidden in the pagoda?”

Lin Xun shook his head.

To this day, he had only been able to manipulate the power of the first level of the Nameless Pagoda. As for the higher levels, they remained sealed by a forbidden power and inaccessible to him.

“Then how have you been using the pagoda?” Ghost King Xuan Kong asked inquisitively.

“Well…just to store some treasures,” Lin Xun answered honestly.

“…”

The kid actually uses the Dao Endless Pagoda as a storage place! If the senior and junior brothers of the sect heard of this, they definitely would go ballistic!

What a waste!

If Master knows about this, would he regret choosing this boy as the destined person?

At the thought of his master, Ghost King Xuan Kong sighed again, his emotions overwhelmed him and his mind raced.

He murmured, “Treading the starry path, strolling up Kunlun. Grabbing the sun and moon with a sleeve, holding the heavens in the palm. I come from the world of mortals, gently tapping on the gate of longevity. Using a magical technique to see one’s true nature, to bestow Dao onto the fated person…”

Lin Xun’s expression suddenly changed strangely. This verse was more than familiar to him!

Years ago, while he, Toady, and Zhao Jingxuan headed to the Fangchun ruins, they accidentally entered a passage of saint bones and discovered a secret realm.

It was in that secret realm that the verse appeared due to the presence of the Nameless Pagoda and was stored in the pagoda!

At that time, Toady analyzed that the verse contained an earthshaking secret that was very likely related to the mystery of reaching Kunlun Dominion!

“Have you heard of this?” asked Ghost King Xuan Kong.

Lin Xun nodded.

Ghost King Xuan Kong was alighted with satisfaction. “Then it’s right. Master will give this verse to every disciple he chooses. Junior Brother, you were born in this age and so likely have never heard about our sect. But it doesn’t matter, I can tell you everything bit by bit.”

After a pause, a look of superiority and pride came to his face. “Our sect is called Fangchun. In ancient times, everyone in the world called it Fangchun Mountain!”

Fangchun Mountain!

Lin Xun’s heart tumbled again. He had been to Fangchun ruins and it was there that he acquired the verse and obtained the Sacred Combat Art inheritance!

“Our master, his dharma name…”

Ghost King Xuan Kong suddenly stopped talking and shook his head. Then, he explained, “Master’s dharma name is like the great dao. It can be understood by the mind, but its meaning cannot be conveyed. Junior brother, when you truly set foot into the Saint Stage, you will know the name of our Master.”

One’s dharma name was as unspeakable as the great dao!

What terrifying cultivation must one possess to have such majesty?

Lin Xun was stunned for a moment.

After a long time, he continued to listen to Ghost King Xuan Kong. “Our sect is different from others. Except for Master, all other sect members, no matter how early or late they join the sect, are regarded as senior and junior brothers.”

“Before me, there were forty-eight senior brothers and sisters. Some practiced meditation, some practiced Buddhism, some practiced spirituality, and some practiced swordsmanship…”

Ghost King Xuan Kong was suddenly filled with nostalgia, as though he was reminiscing about the period when he was training in the sect.

“It’s a pity that I was the most unworthy. In the years that I left the sect and traveled the world, my ability and state of mind were limited, and so I barely managed to reach the pinnacle of the Big Saint Stage…”

Lin Xun was flabbergasted. The pinnacle of the Big Saint Stage! In the entire world, he is guaranteed to be one of the most powerful figures who could dominate one side of the universe!

But when it came from the mouth of Ghost King Xuan Kong, he somehow felt ashamed…

This meant that the forty-eight senior brothers and sisters ranked before him had to possess even more terrifying cultivations!

“In short, I am ranked forty-ninth, and you are the fiftieth successor of Fangchun Mountain.”

Ghost King Xuan Kong suddenly wrinkled his brows, muttering, “The fiftieth? There are fifty great daos and only forty-nine of the fifty can be derived in the world… This…could there be a thread of karma in the unseen world?”

His expression morphed indefinitely, and he fell into silence.

Lin Xun felt like an outsider. It felt very surreal listening to these secrets…

He never thought that he would inadvertently become the successor of an ancient sect. This seemed too unbelievable and incredible.

He spaced out from astonishment for a moment, trying to digest everything.

“Elder, actually…” Lin Xun stuttered.

But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ghost King Xuan Kong, “Junior brother, you and I are senior and junior brothers. You don’t need to be so stiff and constrained. Master often said that there is no first or last in comprehending the dao. We are of the same sect, so we are fellow-minded people.”

Lin Xun smiled bitterly in his heart, and said, “Senior Brother, I have something to tell you, when I was young, I was lucky enough to enter a Fangchun secret realm where I received the inheritance of the Sacred Combat Art, but…”

Ghost King Xuan Kong clapped his hands and laughed, “That's right, the Sacred Combat Art is indeed one of the strongest nine arts of our Fangchun Mountain.”

Immediately afterwards, his expression changed strangely. “I suddenly remembered that in the sect, there is only one other senior brother who is qualified to inherit the Sacred Combat Art besides you.”

“Who?” Lin Xun asked, raising his brows.

He thought back to the earth shaking scene he saw when he received the inheritance…

It was a dilapidated ruin. The sacred mountain had collapsed, the palace hall had been destroyed, and all ancient buildings had fallen into ruins.

It was supposed to be a blessed land, but after some unknown disaster, all it remained was scorched earth and scenes of ruins and rubble. contemporary romance

On the destroyed mountain were remnants of ancient writings: Setting Moon…Three Stars...

And in front of the ancient mountain gate stood a figure with its back facing all beings like a statue, while it stared silently and motionlessly at the dilapidated ruins.

Although its face was unclear, its aura was clearly as vast as the universe, surging into the sky with boundless terror. It seemed that if the figure wanted to, it could conquer the nine heavens, kill across the sky and earth, and encounter no rivals!

It was like…

A combat master!

But in the end, the figure sank to its knees in front of the dilapidated mountain gate and kowtowed three times without a word!

Then, thousands of lightning tribulations struck down like gods and demons descending upon the world from the heavens, crushing the dome of the sky with their mighty aura.

The powerful figure stood up, and a blast of fighting power erupted from him, roaring into the sky to kill. His majestic and domineering bearing was like a pillar of light illuminating all ages!

The scenes ended there, but Lin Xun still vividly remembered the fighting aura that was so terrifying that even divine beings would tremble before it.

Is that the senior brother that Ghost King Xuan Kong mentioned?

“He…”

Ghost King Xuan Kong opened his mouth but only a long sigh came out. “It’s an old story, so let’s not talk about it. In the future, when you become a Saint, you will understand the secrets of the past.”

Lin Xun inexplicably felt a little disappointed.

When he saw the dignified figure in the Fangchun ruins back then, his heart was already filled with admiration and awe.

He could imagine a gallant and invincible figure fighting all the way from the nine netherworlds to the nine heavens and leaving mountains of corpses and seas of blood behind him wherever he went. He was like an unrivaled fighting maniac!

If the sky blocked his path, he would tear it down. If the earth obstructed his way, he would smash it apart!

“Junior brother, the things of the past have long sunk with time. Unfortunately, I have limited time here. You just need to remember that as long as the Dao Endless Pagoda is around, the inheritance of our Fangchun Sect will continue. And when you become a saint in the future, you will naturally understand what you should know.”

Ghost King Xuan Kong suddenly looked at Lin Xun and his eyes became crystal-clear. “As for now, can you let me have a look at your dao and arts?”

Lin Xun’s heart fluttered. He immediately cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind because he knew that Senior Brother Xuan Kong wanted to test and advise him on his cultivation!
