Chapter 490 - 489: Lin Heng, Quasi-Saint! [Second Update]
The ancient bell has appeared.
It resounded with a mighty roar.
The entire Southern Border was shrouded.
The entire Northern Immortal Realm was also alarmed.
"What is happening over there?"
"Weren’t those Quasi-Saints competing for seats already headed to the Outer Realm?"
"Why is the pressure of Extreme Sacred Weapons appearing repeatedly in the Northern Domain?"
Many ancient beings were puzzled, gazing from afar, yet dared not approach.
At that moment.
With the appearance of the Donghuang Bell.
A tremendous pressure descended upon everyone present.
DONG!
A bell toll reverberated instantly.
The Eight Desolations trembled, the starry sky shook as a result.
The bell sound rolled like waves, with the momentum of a carriage, crushing forward.
It intended to grind Lin Heng, who was on the verge of a breakthrough, into fragments.
However, Long Yang and the Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts blocked the way.
Both of them were enveloped in Celestial Fire, burning their essence, unleashing the Saint aura within each of them.
One summoned the Heaven-Reaching Sword Mountain.
One summoned the Country of Myriad Demons.
The two formations stretched across in front.
BOOM!
The Bell Wave collided with the Sword Mountain and the Demon Country.
Causing them to crack inch by inch.
Long Yang and the Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts both spat blood, yet their Celestial Fires burned even more fiercely.
Just as the Sword Mountain and Demon Country were ground to ruins.
They forcibly summoned another.
The Demon Ancestor’s eyes turned cold: "Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts, are you defying me?"
His voice was icy, like a giant snake ready to devour at any moment, with sharp eyes that sent chills down spines.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts, blood constantly at the corners of her mouth, returned the gaze with equal fierceness.
"It was you who abandoned me and the Grand General first."
"You are no longer worthy of anyone’s allegiance!"
Her physical form showed signs of collapsing.
But one has to admit, a Quasi-Saint willing to pay any price does indeed have the ability to temporarily obstruct Extreme Sacred Weapons.
The Demon Ancestor’s face darkened with anger, he growled: "Since that is so, then you shall become a sacrifice for the Donghuang Bell along with them!"
DONG!
Another Bell Wave swept forward.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts and Long Yang were destroyed halfway down their bodies on the spot.
"Wife!"
The Long-armed Ape, witnessing this scene, was furious and wanted to rush to help, but the pressure of the Extreme Sacred Weapon rendered him immobile.
This filled him with exasperation and rage.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts, however, bit her lip, enduring the Bell Wave, and could not help but shout: "You wretched Daoist, how much longer do you need?"
The Daoist did not respond to her.
Instead, Ksitigarbha laughed coldly.
"Don’t wait any longer, he might be dead."
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts’ expression changed upon hearing this, looking back to see that Lin Heng was enveloped in a Purgatory.
An executioner’s blade that could slay gods and destroy ghosts descended from the sky.
Cauldrons of oil that could incinerate mountains and boil seas emerged from the void.
CLANG!
The executioner’s blade fell, and Lin Heng was directly chopped into the boiling cauldron of oil.
There, Quasi-Saint Power surged, and nothing could be seen.
"No!"
Bai Suzhen and Cyan Snake, witnessing this scene, both spat blood in extreme grief and anger.
Diting and Six Ears, however, both revealed smiles of relief: "It’s finally over."
They were truly afraid of Lin Heng entering the Quasi-Saint Realm.
They couldn’t help it.
This guy had shown overwhelmingly exaggerated combat power in previous realms.
Truly invincible in the same realm!
He even broke the conclusion that under the Quasi-Saint all are ants.
If such a monster actually entered the Quasi-Saint realm, it would be an endless future trouble!
"Why does everyone want to kill him?"
The simple-hearted maiden Ling’Er looked at Lin Heng being engulfed by the cauldron and couldn’t help but feel confused and angry, not understanding why everyone wanted to kill this Daoist.
The Long-armed Ape was also dazed and felt a sense of forlornness.
Yet, the Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts merely sighed: "Knowing this, we should have run away earlier..."
"Alas..." Her eyes were bitter.
"Regretting now is too late," the Demon Ancestor declared coldly and arrogantly: "Everyone will pay the price for your defiance."
"Let it end."
Before him, there were no longer any phenomena of Sword Mountain or Demon Country to block him, and the Demon Ancestor once again struck the Donghuang Bell, the sound rolling like a tidal wave, crushing toward everyone without obstruction.
Yet at this moment, Ksitigarbha felt no sense of ease or joy, but rather, an intense unease surged rapidly within him.
"No... this is not right..."
He stared intently at the cauldron within the Purgatory, suddenly exclaiming in panic: "He’s not dead!"
Before the words had even fallen.
The cauldron turned to nothing.
The entire Purgatory phenomenon also dissipated like clouds scattered by the wind.
A figure glowing with purple-gold aura suddenly emerged in front of everyone.
The waves of the bell that were crushing towards everyone were forcibly halted by his hands turning in chaos.
In this instant.
Everyone was struck dumb.
Until Lin Heng’s voice first rang out.
"Apologies for taking a bit longer to break through."
"Are you all alright?"
Lin Heng turned back, speaking to everyone.
The crowd seemed not to have reacted yet, only nodding dumbly: "Alright... we’re alright..."
On the other side, however, Diting spoke tremblingly: "This guy, he’s entered the Quasi-Saint realm..."
In an instant, everyone came back to their senses.
Bai Suzhen and Cyan Snake both cried tears of joy, overwhelmed with excitement.
The maiden Ling’Er wore a pure smile.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts and Long Yang, however, stared at Lin Heng with shock in their eyes, both Quasi-Saints sensed the terrifying power within Lin Heng.
Like a volcano about to erupt.
Or a deep abyss, unfathomable.
The Long-armed Ape, without thinking too much, blurted out: "Daoist Lord Lin, do as you see fit, my wife was ruined trying to protect your breakthrough!"
"Uh..."
Why do these words sound so odd?
Lin Heng smiled awkwardly: "Alright, I will definitely help her get some payback!"
After speaking, Lin Heng’s gaze fell on the Demon Ancestor, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
The frigid gaze made even the Demon Ancestor feel a pang of guilt, but what followed was anger.
"You’ve just entered the Quasi-Saint realm. No matter how extraordinary your talent, can you overturn the heavens?"
"With the Donghuang Bell in hand, you will still meet your death!"
DONG!
He once again struck the Donghuang Bell.
This time, the bell’s sound resounded throughout the entire Northern Immortal Realm.
The cloud sea for millions of miles shattered instantly.
The mountains and rivers of several continents nearby exploded simultaneously, sending countless rocks plunging into the deep sea, causing waves and smoke to rise to the heavens in unison.
It is not an exaggeration to say.
This bell sound was akin to a Celestial Dao Tribulation for all living beings!
Even Ksitigarbha couldn’t help but feel his heart tremble.
Unexpectedly, just as the rolling bell sound was about to crash before Lin Heng.
Lin Heng’s dense Saint aura converged at his fingertips, and with a slash of his fingers, an illusory Crimson Celestial Sword appeared.
With a thunderous roar!
This sword was like a river-dividing strike.
Forcibly severing the bell sound.
"How... is that possible?"
At this moment.
The entire scene fell silent.
The world seemed to be quiet.
Amidst the extreme silence, the sound of everyone gasping in shock was abrupt and noisy...
