Chapter 2483: Chapter 2486: Eight Immortals County City Throne Struggle: Bull God Labyrinth

"Hehe, sorry Young Lord, the Wolf Travel Thousand Miles just now was only a smokescreen.

Otherwise, with your observational skills, you would have discovered this hidden Sword Qi."

Ling Xiao stood there, mockingly looking at Lin Yuetian.

Since it’s a life-and-death arena, there must be a decision of life and death, otherwise, it’s just child’s play.

"Mountain Master, let’s go back."

Ling Xiao actually hoped Lin Yuetian would make a move, so he could use Butterfly Girl and Shen Dian’s sudden attack to injure him.

If that were the case, who would dare to trouble him?

But Lin Yuetian didn’t make a move, he had no reason to attack, so he let it go.

However, Ling Xiao didn’t know.

Watching him and Heiye Wuxing leave, a terrifying intent for murder began brewing in Lin Yuetian’s heart.

He is the Young Lord, finding a reason to execute Ling Xiao is not a difficult task.

This time, let’s let Ling Xiao live for now; soon, the revenge will begin.

Not only Ling Xiao must die, but Heiye Wuxing must also perish.

Lin Yuetian is basically a prime candidate for the next Sect Leader of Eight Immortals Mountain; he absolutely cannot tolerate the existence of someone like Heiye Wuxing.

He doesn’t listen to his orders, and yet dares to protect Ling Xiao against him.

Back at the separate courtyard.

Heiye Wuxing looked at Ling Xiao, sizing him up as if he didn’t recognize him.

"Mountain Master, we’ve known each other for a long time, no need to look at me like that, right?"

Ling Xiao smiled wryly.

"Today’s events have made me realize I don’t understand you at all. Your talent is far more terrifying than I imagined.

But after today, you have offended not only the Sha Clan, Sword Clan, Dark Clan’s An Family but also the Sect Leader faction.

Have you decided what to do?"

Heiye Wuxing smiled wryly.

"When soldiers come, use generals to counter; when water comes, use earth to block. There’s nothing to fear.

Moreover, my cultivation level has broken through to the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm, Fourth Layer of Hell, not far from the pinnacle of Eight Immortals County City.

Their hostility will only fuel my determination and drive to become stronger."

Ling Xiao smiled easily.

"Indeed, in ten days, you’ve comprehended Dark Shadow Martial Arts and cultivated Sword Chime Yinsan to the Transcendental Realm.

Such innate talent, even I am far behind."

Heiye Wuxing lamented.

"Mountain Master, you might have misunderstood; I did not only comprehend the first form.

Also the second form, Sword Split Huangquan!

And this form has also been cultivated to the Great Perfection."

Ling Xiao smiled as he spoke.

"What!"

Heiye Wuxing was stunned for a while before shaking his head with a wry smile: "It seems you are definitely a Divine Grade genius of the rarest in the Mysterious World.

The entire Xuanwu Continent has never seen a genius like you.

Your talent is probably on par with the former Twelve Beast Gods."

Ling Xiao smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

His talent is strong, but without the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit and his crazy cultivation methods, it wouldn’t be possible.

"Alright, enough about this, now that you have the strength to defeat Dark Gold, I can tell you some things."

Heiye Wuxing actually had some matters he hadn’t told Ling Xiao since he felt Ling Xiao’s strength wasn’t sufficient.

But today, he saw Ling Xiao’s extraordinary prowess, given some time, not daring to say he’d become the top genius of the Dark Clan, but definitely capable of rivaling Heiye Wuzun.

"What matters?"

Ling Xiao was puzzled, asking.

"Do you know why Eight Immortals County City is under the control of our Eight Immortals Mountain?"

Heiye Wuxing did not directly answer but asked a question.

"Because Eight Immortals Mountain is strong enough?"

Ling Xiao thought for a moment and said.

"That is correct, but strength also requires a stage for demonstration."

Heiye Wuxing smiled: "Actually, Eight Immortals County City was ’Tian Feng County City’ thirty years ago, controlled by Tianfeng Group.

But in the major duel thirty years ago, we defeated Tianfeng Group and thus have had practical control over Eight Immortals County City for thirty years.

Although the City Lord is Lin Yuan from the Lin Family, he’s just managing ordinary people for us Eight Immortals Mountain.

All martial artists must accept our Eight Immortals Mountain’s jurisdiction."

"Are you saying a destined duel is about to begin again?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"Indeed, the control rights of the county city will be held this year, only a month away.

At that time, Tianfeng Group and Eight Immortals Mountain will have another pinnacle duel between genius disciples.

Participants are the most outstanding young people under thirty from the two Great Sects.

The rules are somewhat similar to the competition for the Town Lord qualification between the two major families of Yuhua Town, but much larger in scale.

The Royal Clan of the Chen Dynasty will even come to the site.

I don’t need to say much about the benefits of securing control over Eight Immortals County City; you should know very well.

All revenue will belong to the controller, only needing to pay twenty percent to the Royal Clan as taxes."

"Is the Royal Clan of the Chen Dynasty very powerful?"

From what Ling Xiao knows of the Mysterious World, anyone capable of claiming kingship must be not only strategic but also a powerful Martial Arts family; this much is beyond doubt.

The Royal Clan of the Chen Dynasty is surely powerful.

But to what degree of strength, he did not have a clear concept.

"Let me put it this way, it’s equivalent to the gap between Eight Immortals Mountain and Yuhua Town."

Heiye Wuxing explained.

"Such a big gap! Doesn’t that mean the strongest in Eight Immortals County City is just a bottom-tier existence at the Imperial Capital?"

Ling Xiao asked, somewhat excitedly.

"Naturally, a martial artist must keep getting stronger to truly glimpse the full view of Xuanwu Continent, otherwise you’ll only remain in this small area for life.

The size of the Xuanwu Continent is far larger than the previous three continents combined, and the strong here, more plentiful than the combined previous three continents.

You must not become complacent with little achievements; otherwise, you’ll suffer the most in the end."

Heiye Wuxing feared that Ling Xiao, due to continuous victories, would become arrogant and complacent.

Although there were no signs of this yet, he felt he should remind Ling Xiao to avoid entering into a misguided path.

"What are the rules of the duel? Won’t it be the same as in Yuhua Town?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Ling Xiao asked.

"Of course, it’s not the same; in fact, every time it’s different.

A while ago, I heard from the Sect’s upper echelon that this time, the competition involves going to the legendary ’Bull God Labyrinth.’

Bull God is one of the Twelve Beast Gods, defeated in the Beast God King competition, but his power remains undeniable.

The Bull God Labyrinth is a relic left behind by Bull God; no one knows exactly what’s inside.

Your task, as the younger generation, is to enter the Bull God Labyrinth and find the rumored ’Bull God Beast Soul.’

This Beast Soul is not only immensely powerful but might also have some form of inheritance.

Whichever side obtains the Bull God Beast Soul will be the victor!"
