51: A world of vengeful spirits, the remains of saints
However, a voice quickly rang out.
"All Gu Clan Disciples, heed my command! Everyone, enter the Ancient Desolate Small World!" the Gu Clan Prodigy shouted.
Then, after a deep glance at Lin Xiao, he led a group of Disciples into the Ancient Desolate Small World.
Other forces, seeing this, naturally followed suit, flying towards the Ancient Desolate Small World.
"Let's go too," Lin Xiao said, leading a group of Lin Clan Disciples inside as well.
Passing through the spatial rift, everyone seemed to enter a world enveloped in darkness.
Within the entire Ancient Desolate Small World, only faint blood-red light and an endless crimson land could be seen.
Countless vengeful spirits floated in the sky; the weakest of these vengeful spirits possessed the strength of the Life and Death Realm.
When they saw the numerous Cultivators entering from the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain, they surged forward frantically, all at once.
They launched a brutal and merciless slaughter against these lower-level Cultivators.
However, these vengeful spirits were quickly wiped out by the combined efforts of the Disciples from several great immortal forces.
Roughly estimated, in just over ten minutes since entering, the number of casualties had conservatively exceeded one hundred thousand.
It was a truly horrific sight!
Those Cultivators with faction protection fared better.
But the Loose Cultivators with weaker strength, after being 'baptized' by the vengeful spirits, looked worse than the last.
Either missing an arm or a leg, they were barely recognizable as human.
"This Ancient Desolate Small World has been sealed for tens of millions of years and is now occupied by countless vengeful spirits. It won't be easy to retrieve anything from here," Lin Xiao murmured, looking at the endless crimson land and crimson forests.
Then he looked at the Lin Clan Disciples behind him and said, "Let's continue forward."
"Alright," Lin Wuyuan and the others nodded.
Each leading a group of people, they followed Lin Xiao, continuing their advance.
Behind the Lin Clan's group, naturally, countless Loose Cultivators, with the idea of the Lin Clan eating meat and them drinking soup, stealthily followed Lin Xiao and the others.
"Little Brat, do you want me to go deal with them?" Lin Kuang frowned, looking at the group of Loose Cultivators behind them.
As Lin Xiao heard Lin Kuang's voice, the System's voice suddenly rang out in his mind.
"Ding! Detecting the situation the Host is currently facing, you are now given two choices!"
"Choice One: Allow Lin Kuang to drive away the Loose Cultivators behind you, and obtain the Great Dao Treasure Arts: Great Combat Technique!"
"Choice Two: Let the group of Loose Cultivators follow behind the Lin Clan's group, and obtain the Great Dao Treasure Arts: Great Flame Technique!"
Looking at the choices given by the System, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up slightly.
"The Great Flame Technique, a Great Dao Treasure Arts formed from the Great Dao of Flame. This is a natural bane for vengeful spirits, truly a rare and good item," Lin Xiao thought.
He looked at Lin Kuang: "No need, let them be."
As Lin Xiao finished speaking, an extremely scorching aura instantly appeared in his Dantian.
It then transformed into the Great Dao of Flame, tightly adhering to the chaos tree, intertwining with his other Great Dao Treasure Arts.
Seeing Lin Xiao speak, Lin Kuang could only nod, and the matter was dropped.
Thus, the group continued for an unknown period of time.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, a cold wind swept across the entire crimson sky.
It made all the Lin Clan Disciples shiver slightly. As for the group of Loose Cultivators following behind the Lin Clan's team, there was even less to say.
"Such heavy Yin Qi. What's going on? Could it be that some peerless fiend is coming?" a Lin Clan Disciple in the Lin Clan's group asked fearfully, tightly clutching the clothes of the person in front of him.
"Everyone, don't be afraid. It's just a vengeful spirit of the Heaven and Earth Realm," Lin Xiao said.
He had just used the Great Heavenly Eye Technique to check, and there should be no immediate danger in this vicinity.
As Lin Xiao thought, the Great Flame Technique within him suddenly activated.
In an instant, an aura like a raging inferno erupted, as if to incinerate the entire land.
Within dozens of miles around Lin Xiao, including that Heaven and Earth Realm vengeful spirit, everything was burned to ashes.
Lin Wuyuan and the others were somewhat stunned by the sight.
"How strange. The Divine Son truly has many trump cards. I never realized before that he had comprehended the Great Dao Treasure Arts of the Great Dao of Flame."
As for the expressions of those Loose Cultivators and ordinary Lin Clan Disciples, there was even less to say.
At this moment, almost all of them looked at Lin Xiao with eyes like pilgrims, exclaiming in admiration.
"Hiss! To incinerate dozens of miles in this Ancient Desolate Small World, where Spiritual Qi is sparse, with a single move—is this the strength of Divine Son Lin Xiao? So powerful!"
"Divine Son Lin Xiao is truly amazing. Fortunately, I chose to follow behind the Lin Clan from the beginning, otherwise, I might have died without even a trace left."
Lin Xiao ignored their gazes and continued to lead the group forward.
After walking for a very, very long time, they finally stopped in front of a massive palace.
Looking at this ancient palace, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel curious.
"An ancient building from tens of millions of years ago. Perhaps there will be some different gains inside," Lin Xiao murmured in his heart.
Although his primary mission upon entering the Ancient Desolate Small World was to find the corpse of his Lin Clan ancestor,
this did not prevent his plan to thoroughly explore this place.
"Do you want to go in together?" Lin Xiao glanced at Lin Yi beside him, then looked at the group of Lin Clan Disciples behind him.
"Divine Son, I won't go in. It's too dangerous inside, and I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble," a Lin Clan Disciple stepped forward, saying somewhat awkwardly.
He genuinely wanted to go in, but his cultivation was only at the Life and Death Realm, which was truly insufficient.
While his strength was quite good compared to his peers, it was simply too far behind when compared to a monster-level Genius like Lin Xiao.
Therefore, to avoid delaying the Divine Son's important matters and having him distracted to protect him, it was better for him not to enter.
"Brother, I want to go in," Lin Yi said, looking at the palace with endless Battle Intent.
Since his birth, he had never fought a proper battle. Now that he finally had an opportunity, he had to properly test his true strength.
Lin Xiao nodded and looked at the others.
"Your Highness Divine Son, we won't go in either," the other ordinary Lin Clan Disciples all refused.
Then Lin Xiao couldn't help but look at Lin Wuyuan and the other three.
"Little Brat, I'll go in with you," Lin Kuang chuckled, standing beside Lin Xiao.
"I want to explore on my own," Lin Jiuge said.
"I'm the same as him," Lin Wuyuan said.
"Anyway, I don't have the strength to go in, so I'll stay here and protect our Lin Clan people," Lin Haotian said with a smile.
Lin Xiao nodded and walked towards the ancient palace with Lin Yi and Lin Kuang.
Boom!!!
As the three of them just stepped into the palace, the palace gate suddenly slammed shut, and no matter what Lin Kuang did, he couldn't open it.
"Don't waste your effort. This gate is engraved with a Formation. To get out, we must find another exit," Lin Xiao said.
He looked with a solemn expression at the remains of a saint, emanating terrifying power, sitting on a royal chair in the center of the main hall ahead.
