Chapter 52: Please Go and Die!

Tonight, Lin Tianyuan came to the Empress’s Palace to rest.

After being continuously killed in his dreams, he was very weak.

Lin Tianyuan knew that he could not die anymore.

If he died in his dream the third time, then he would also die in the outside world.

“Your Majesty, it’s better to ask the imperial physicians to come over here and take a look,” The Empress said worriedly when she saw Lin Tianyuan in such a weakened state.

Lin Tianyuan shook his head calmly.

His face was pale and his body was weak, but his thoughts were still vivid.

He replied, “There’s no need to worry. Only you can stay with me here tonight.”

“Let the others go out.”

“Remember…”

“No matter what happens, don’t disturb me and don’t make a fuss.”

Although the Empress didn’t know what was going on, she was never a nosy person.

“I understand.”

The Empress helped Lin Tianyuan lie on the bed and she also helped him sleep.

Then, she dismissed the maids and the servants.

She looked at Lin Tianyuan quietly.

The night gradually deepened.

The lights suddenly danced and flickered.

Lin Tianyuan, who had been asleep for less than an hour, started to sweat.

His entire body started to tremble unconsciously.

The Empress’s expression changed.

She was nervous.

Staring at the beaded sweat on Lin Tianyuan’s forehead, she wanted to reach out and wipe Lin Tianyuan’s sweat.

But in the very next moment, a resplendent light burst out.

A figure walked into the room from the outside and said, “Don’t touch him, he’s in a very dangerous condition as we speak.”

The Empress looked at the newcomer in surprise.

Under the cover of the brilliant light, she couldn’t see Lin Jiufeng’s appearance at all.

“Human G.o.d!”

But she still managed to guess his ident.i.ty.

He was the Human G.o.d living in seclusion within the confines of the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua G.o.d Dynasty.

“I will guard the surroundings. I will not disturb Senior’s treatment of His Majesty.”

The Empress said respectfully as she moved back a little, not wanting to disturb Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng was satisfied with her att.i.tude.

She knew when to advance and when to retreat.

She knew what was good for her, and her every move was openhanded.

[Do you want to Sign-In at the Empress’s Palace?]

Suddenly, a line of words appeared before Lin Jiufeng’s eyes.

Lin Jiufeng didn’t expect the Sign-In prompt to appear at such a moment.

“Sign-in!” But since he was already here, how could he refuse?

He hadn’t signed in at the Empress Palace yet.

He had already visited the palace when he came here to expose Concubine Ming. But for some reason, the Sign-In prompt didn’t appear that day.

This time, it appeared rather quickly.

[Sign-In successful. Received Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul!]

This was an offensive technique that could only be used through one’s Divine Soul.

It had nine moves that could instantly dissipate an enemy’s Divine Soul.

“Good. Just as I needed… This will make it easier for me to annihilate the other party’s Divine Soul.” Lin Jiufeng was overjoyed.

He closed his eyes and instantly received the corresponding knowledge and wisdom necessary to execute the technique.

It didn’t take him long to learn the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul. He opened his eyes and looked at Lin Tianyuan.

He was already being plagued by nightmares.

A black mist lingered between his brows.

Boom!

Lin Jiufeng placed his palm on Lin Tianyuan’s forehead and a vast amount of Divine Soul energy slowly seeped into Lin Tianyuan.

At this moment, the world inside Lin Tianyuan’s Divine Soul was undergoing a huge change.

He was captured and imprisoned inside a dark palace.

There was a huge black fog surrounding him, and there was an extremely terrifying existence in the black fog.

A seemingly infinite black fog had surrounded him.

There also seemed to be a terrifying existence hidden from within the fog itself.

Plap!

A whip struck Lin Tianyuan’s body.

Lord Mountain Ghost who looked like a water monkey also appeared.

He was looking at Lin Tianyuan with a hideous look on his face.

“Emperor of the Yuhua G.o.d Dynasty, aren’t you very powerful?”

“It’s been a long time since we made ourselves known to the outside world. There aren’t many of us yet, and you actually dared send an order to capture us all?”

Lord Mountain Ghost looked at Lin Tianyuan in fury.

“You actually dared to appear here?” Lin Tianyuan’s face was pale.

Yet, he wasn’t fl.u.s.tered at all despite being whipped.

Instead, he sneered.

“This is the Divine Soul World of my Mountain Spirit Race’s ancestor. We used a secret technique to bring your Divine Soul here. In this world, unless one has a deep understanding of the Divine Soul, they cannot find this place,” Lord Mountain Spirit said proudly.

He wasn’t afraid at all.

“In the Imperial Capital, you are the Emperor of the Yuhua G.o.d Dynasty, you have a lot of power.”

“But here… I am the king!”

“Even if the G.o.ds are here, even if that Human G.o.d from your Yuhua G.o.d Dynasty is here, he must kneel before me!”

Lord Mountain Ghost shouted arrogantly.

“Is that so?”

But he wasn’t smug for long before a cold voice sounded.

Then, a resplendent sword light split the black fog and directly shone on the dark palace.

Lin Jiufeng—who was shrouded in a golden radiance—appeared.

He stared at Lord Mountain Ghost with a cold gaze.

Pointing his finger like a sword, he said, “Can you repeat what you just said?”

“You…”

“You are a Human G.o.d?”

“Why are you here? This is the Divine Soul World of my Mountain Ghost Race’s ancestor…”

“How can you be here/”

Lord Mountain Ghost looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise and doubt.

His arrogance seemed to have been smothered by Lin Jiufeng’s appearance.

“I’m here to kill you!” Lin Jiufeng said bluntly.

Lin Jiufeng originally wanted to save Lin Tianyuan and catch the mastermind, but who would have thought that he would accidentally encounter Lord Mountain Ghost whom he wanted to kill?

Since this was the case, Lin Jiufeng wasn’t going to be courteous.

“Hahaha. My ears aren’t ringing, are they?”

“In the Divine Soul World of my ancestor, you said that you wanted to kill me? You want to kill me here? Do you think that my ancestor doesn’t exist?”

Lord Mountain Ghost was full of confidence. He wasn’t afraid of Lin Jiufeng.

Behind him, the thick black fog rolled. There was a terrifying existence inside of it.

“How can a coward who just hides in the dark and doesn’t even dare to show himself protect you?” Lin Jiufeng said in disdain. He raised his hand and executed the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul that he had just received earlier from signing in.

The first stance of the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul, Heavenly Sword Soul Break!

Using his finger as a sword, he connected both the sky and the earth.

In the Divine Soul World, Lin Jiufeng could also summon the wind and rain.

His Divine Soul was overwhelmingly powerful.

In the very next moment, his sword slashed out.

“Ancestor, save me!” Lord Mountain Ghost shouted rather calmly.

He didn’t believe that even a Human G.o.d like Lin Jiufeng could kill him in the Divine Soul World of his ancestor.

The surging black fog also moved.

It condensed into a s.h.i.+eld and directly blocked in front of Lord Mountain Ghost.

Dong!

The s.h.i.+eld was as black as ink, and the patterns on its surface looked very real.

It seemed to be very powerful.

Lord Mountain Ghost’s smile of confidence widened.

But Lin Jiufeng was similarly confident.

He only said softly, “You’re already dead!”

As his words fell, the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul directly split the s.h.i.+eld into pieces with a bang.

A stroke of the sword was all it took for him to annihilate Lord Mountain Ghost’s Divine Soul.

It looked very easy.

The black s.h.i.+eld seemed st.u.r.dy, but under the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul that was filled with Lin Jiufeng’s sword intent, the s.h.i.+eld was akin to that of a piece of paper.

Lord Mountain Ghost looked at Lin Jiufeng in a daze.

His Divine Soul has been forcefully dissipated. It scattered into a black fog that disappeared.

Before he could completely die, he stared fixedly at Lin Jiufeng.

He wanted to know why.

Why was this strike so powerful?

But Lin Jiufeng didn’t even look at him.

Killing him like this was almost like letting him off easy.

He had finally gotten his revenge for that old man.

Lin Jiufeng looked at the surging black fog around him.

The black fog seemed furious.

It was enraged as the ma.s.sive pressure it carried similar to a storm came cras.h.i.+ng down.

Lin Jiufeng stood with his hands behind his back.

He looked at it calmly and said, “There’s no need to be angry. Come and take my strike too!”

Only by receiving this strike without dying would the existence within the fog have the right to be angry.

Otherwise, even if he was thousands of miles away, Lin Jiufeng would still be able to find his true body.

With these words, the black fog actually began to dissipate on its own to escape.

It realized that Lin Jiufeng wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

Clang!

The same longsword that penetrated the Imperial Capital’s palace long ago appeared behind Lin Jiufeng’s back.

He performed another stance from the Nine Slashes of the Demon Soul.

Annihilation!

“Please go and die!” Lin Jiufeng said seriously.

With a swing of his sword, the entire Divine Soul World was instantly torn.
