Chapter 1086 - Waiting for News to Spread, the River Rises, Onwards to the Lin Clan

Inside a secret room in the Lin clan, Lin Zhaotian was sitting with his legs crossed while strands of crimson flame were forced out from his pores. That was the Crimson Karmic Lotus Flame.

"Phew. I've finally gotten rid of all the Crimson Karmic Lotus Flame."

Lin Zhaotian breathed a sigh of relief.

The moment the Crimson Karmic Lotus Flame came into contact with a body, it would not stop until their sins and karma were all burnt away.

That was why the Karmic Flame was so hard to deal with. Although it was only ranked thirteen on the Divine Fire List, it was more frightening than those in the top ten.

"Is the ambush against Chu Kuangren going smoothly, I wonder?" Lin Zhaotian pondered.

Back then, while he was on his way back from the Thousand Flame Valley, he met the Blood Monk Disciple, who came to invite him to join his plan to ambush Chu Kuangren.

Since he hated Chu Kuangren to the core, Lin Zhaotian agreed right away.

Moreover, that plan had a very high possibility of succeeding.

The Yin Underworld Universe could suppress ninety percent of Chu Kuangren's strength while he was ambushed by the Blood Monk Disciple, Ming Zi, and the Lin clan cultivators. With that, Lin Zhaotian believed that even a Heavenly Immortal would die in such a situation, let alone Chu Kuangren.

"I suppose he has already been reduced to ashes by now." Lin Zhaotian sneered.

At that time, the jade scroll on his waist suddenly began to vibrate.

A message had arrived.

Upon reading it, Lin Zhaotian's expression immediately changed, and his arm trembled as the jade scroll fell onto the ground with a clang.

He was in utter disbelief. "How is this possible? T-They've failed? How did they fail?! It's… It's impossible!"

"Under the effects of the Yin Underworld Universe, Chu Kuangren should only have ten percent of his strength left. How did he manage to survive that three-way ambush? To think he even killed Ming Zi and even the Blood Monk Disciple…"

Lin Zhaotian wracked his brain yet still could not figure out how.

Just then, the jade order on the ground vibrated again.

Another message had come.

There were only four words written in that message. 'Chu Kuangren is coming!'

Lin Zhaotian was shocked. "So he really is coming, huh? Very well. We might as well end it here now!"

As an ancient Immortal clan, the Lin clan possessed a powerful background.

Although he was shocked that Chu Kuangren killed Ming Zi and the Blood Monk Disciple, Lin Zhaotian had no intentions of surrendering.

Besides, he had already made preparations back when Chu Kuangren declared war on the Lin clan. He was just waiting for that day to come.

After coming out of the secret room, Lin Zhaotian immediately gathered everyone.

Meanwhile, news of Chu Kuangren challenging the Lin clan had spread throughout all of Planquilon Immortal World, and everyone soon knew of it.

As such, everyone quickly headed toward the Lin clan to check out the action.

They wanted to find out how amazing Chu Kuangren's fight against the Lin clan would be and who would have the last laugh at the end.

On the way to the Lin clan, Chu Kuangren was strolling along with Lan Yu, Lil Fox, He Fei, and He Yun, who was in remnant Immortal Soul form.

They would casually stop for a break to enjoy a cup of tea or to admire the flowers and scenery along the way. They did not seem like they were going to war at all.

Anyone would have thought they were out for a holiday if they did not know any better.

The cultivators observing them in secret got so anxious, and they could not believe their eyes.

"What is up with Chu Kuangren? Didn't he say he's going to the Lin clan? Why is he so relaxed and carefree?"

"Is he really going to battle them?"

"F*ck this. The suspense is killing me."

"He isn't lying to us, right?"

"No. When he challenged the Lin clan, news about this had already spread throughout all of Planquilon Immortal World. If he doesn't, he would surely become a laughingstock, and with how arrogant he is, there's no way he'd do such a thing."

"But with the pace he's at right now, it'll be months before he gets there."

The cultivators chatted in secret.

They were still millions of kilometers away from the Lin clan. If Chu Kuangren continued his current pace, he would not even get there in hundreds of years.

Were they supposed to wait for Chu Kuangren for hundreds of years?

On a huge river somewhere, Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu, and the others were traveling on a boat.

"Geez, these guys… They're not even the ones going up against the Lin clan, yet they seem to be more anxious than me." Chu Kuangren chuckled.

He had long noticed those auras spying on him from the void. However, he simply ignored them.

"Well, everyone already knows that you're battling the Lin clan, Master. Of course, they'll pay great attention to this." Lan Yu chuckled.

Then, she asked curiously, "But, Master, when exactly are we going to the Lin clan?"

"We can head there anytime, but I'm just waiting for a while for the news to spread throughout all of Planquilon Immortal World," Chu Kuangren said casually.

"Master, are you planning to show off your power to the whole world?"

"No, wiping out the Lin clan will be easy for me. What I want is to use them as an example so that no one in this world will ever dare to harm my subordinates."

"I see." Lan Yu nodded.

A few days later, Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu, and the others were still traveling through that huge river.

That river stretched as far as thousands of kilometers, with no end in sight.

"It's almost time." Chu Kuangren chuckled.

Means of communication were very advanced in the cultivation world, so news of his battle with the Lin clan had already spread to every corner of the land.

Those people should be in the Lin clan by now.

"He Fei, I hear that the Lin clan specializes in alchemy and a Fire-based Dao that's on par, or if not more powerful, than the Holy Divine Fire Cult. That's why the location of their clan is situated on volcanic terrain. Am I right?" Chu Kuangren asked.

"That's right. The Lin clan's cultivators are well-versed in Fire-based Dao, which is why their main base is situated on volcanic terrain. The fire energy there is potent and greatly beneficial to their cultivation. Besides, they can channel the earthen fire to create any high-tier pills or medicine whenever they want to do so." He Fei nodded.

It was a well-known fact in the Planquilon Immortal World that each cultivation orthodoxies and clan would choose strategic locations for their main base.

There were many other clans similar to the Lin clan.

Those who cultivate Frost-based Dao would choose to live in snowy mountain areas, while those who cultivate Water-based Dao would choose to live in wetlands areas…

The type of environment would be crucial to the effects of one's cultivation.

"Hm. What do you think if I put out their fires?" Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle.

"Master Chu, do you mean…" He Fei was a little puzzled.

The next instant, Chu Kuangren leaped into the skies.

Most of the cultivators were delighted to see that something was happening.

"He's finally doing something."

"This is great."

"What is he going to do?"

Following that, the cultivators noticed something.

An incomparably powerful energy fluctuation erupted from Chu Kuangren's body, causing the land within a hundred thousand kilometer-radius to start trembling.

"He's channeling earth qi!" someone exclaimed, having figured out his intentions.

"Look. Something's going on with the water in the river!"

The great river that spanned thousands of kilometers started trembling violently.

There were sounds of water gushing and the ground rumbling.

"Rise!"

In the air, Chu Kuangren opened his palms facing the great river and made a clenching gesture as he shouted.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The endless river water immediately rose into the air, hovering in the sky.

Soon, the sky was covered by the vast river water, leaving behind an empty river passage tens of thousands of kilometers long. Not a single drop of water was left to be found!

The endless river water rose into the air, shrouding the sun. It was as if a giant mirror was placed in the sky, reflecting everything on the ground. It was an extraordinary sight to behold.

That sight stunned all of the cultivators.

"Let's go!"

Chu Kuangren was bringing all of the river's water to the Lin clan!
