Chapter 358: Entering the Imperial Palace
Lin Hao acted as if he did not hear the commander’s question and treated him as air.
“Stop him. Lord Man has already come out of seclusion and will be here soon,” the commander said in a heavy tone. Lin Hao gave him too much pressure. Although the three of them combined could not do anything to Lin Hao, he was still confident in being able to delay him.
“Could it be Lord Man She?”
Hearing the words ‘Lord Man’, the other general’s eyes lit up.
When the Ascension Emperor led the army to battle, Man She was still in seclusion. Otherwise, they would definitely have brought him along. This was a battle fanatic. When they heard his name, the other two were delighted.
“Let me give you a piece of advice. There’s always someone better than you. If you surrender now, admit your mistake and submit to the Ascension Immortal Dynasty, and compensate for some losses, perhaps we can spare you.”
The commander did not know Lin Hao’s identity. If he knew, he would definitely not say this.
How could he dare to protect the person who the Ascension Emperor wanted dead?
“Everyone, listen up. Form the Demon Imprisonment Formation and stop him.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them stood separately. Three Golden Core auras spread out. An illusory pair of wings appeared behind the commander and he rose from the ground.
At the same time, the thousands of Ascension Soldiers put away the weapons in their hands and sat down in unison. They pinched the imprints in their hands. As the imprints in their hands solidified, the spiritual qi in the sky quickly condensed, turning into thousands of chains that quickly spun.
A wave of air erupted, and a layer of spiritual qi armor appeared on the bodies of the three generals.
The moment the Demon Imprisonment Formation was formed, Lin Hao felt the spiritual qi in his body actually stop for a moment. Although it did not affect his battle, it affected him. Looks like the watchdogs of the Ascension Immortal Dynasty still had some ability.
“Attack together!”
The three generals gathered the power in their bodies and condensed it into an illusory flying knife. As it spun, the saber qi wreaked havoc and landed on their armor, producing some sparks.
Then, the commander waved his hands, and the flying knife swept towards Lin Hao.
Seeing that the flying knife was getting closer and closer to Lin Hao, a golden spear appeared in his hand. He stabbed at the illusory flying knife and instantly exploded with a thunderous sound.
A powerful aftershock swept out in all directions. The three great commanders were immediately forced back, their eyes revealing dense shock.
They were all at the Golden Core realm, but the three of them were actually unable to defeat Lin Hao even if they joined forces.
“Don’t fight him forcefully. Trap him,” said the commander as he looked at Lin Hao with narrowed eyes.
“After today, the Ascension Immortal Dynasty will no longer exist. Your master is about to die, so what’s the point?” Lin Hao smiled coldly. This Demon Imprisonment Formation could not stop him for long. If he could not even deal with three Golden Core realm generals, wouldn’t it ruin the Lin family’s reputation?
“Heavenly Eye Technique!” Lin Hao shouted in a low voice.
His eyes seemed to reveal a trace of magic as they evolved into all kinds of weapons. His entire body emitted a terrifying devouring power. The spiritual qi that the Demon Imprisonment Formation was originally used to circulate and strengthen was absorbed into Lin Hao’s body. In his eyes, a mini version of a huge hammer rushed out and became larger at a visible speed.
In the blink of an eye, it became a huge hammer that was as tall as two people. It made the commander gulp. What kind of monster was this?
“Shield!”
Feeling the domineering pressure emitted by the huge hammer, the legs of the other two commanders could not help but tremble. Hearing the commander’s words, they gritted their teeth and punched out a mark against the huge pressure. They mobilized the power of the Demon Imprisonment Formation to condense into a huge shield.
As the three of them mobilized the spiritual qi of the Demon Imprisonment Formation again, the expressions of the thousands of Ascension Soldiers who were setting up the array were a little ugly. Their cultivation levels were not high to begin with, and half of their spiritual qi had been forcefully extracted by Lin Hao, while the other half was mobilized by the three commanders. If they did not increase the infusion of spiritual qi, the Demon Imprisonment Formation would shatter. This was an extremely huge burden to them.
“Fall!” Accompanying Lin Hao’s shout, the huge hammer suddenly smashed into the shield condensed by the three of them. In an instant, cracks that were like spiderwebs appeared on the huge shield. With a bang, under the powerful force, the huge shield turned to foam that filled the sky.
A terrifying power landed on the three of them. The thousands of Ascension Soldiers were no longer able to withstand the power of the Demon Imprisonment Formation. They spat out blood and fell to the ground.
The commander was just about to speak when his throat ached and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Looking at the slowly walking Lin Hao, fear appeared in the commander’s eyes as he continuously retreated.
…
At this moment, Lin Xuan and the others arrived at the center of the Ascension Immortal Dynasty. A grand imperial palace appeared in front of them.
“This place is so beautiful.” Huang Hao looked at the brilliant palace and sighed in surprise.
Lin Xuan was just about to open his mouth to introduce when he heard the little guy say again, “I wonder if there are any spiritual fruits!”
This made Lin Xuan laugh. The Willow Immortal’s clone even separated a willow branch and slapped Huang Hao’s butt. Why was he so greedy?
Lin Xuan was just about to approach the palace door when a shout sounded in his ears.
“Who dares to be so bold as to trespass into the forbidden area of the imperial palace!”
A pair of guards appeared from nowhere and rushed over when they saw Lin Xuan drawing his saber.
“Senior Willow Immortal, you don’t have to do anything to these people. Just leave them to me.” When Lin Xuan saw that the Willow Immortal wanted to attack, he immediately stopped it.
Ever since he broke through to the Purple Prefecture Realm, the number of times he attacked decreased. It was a good opportunity to train.
Moreover, these guards were all low-level Purple Prefecture Realm experts and could be used to train.
“Seven Reversal Divine Steps, step!”
Lin Xuan’s figure became unstable and moved back and forth between the guards.
“Where did he go?” When the leader of the guards saw Lin Xuan suddenly disappear after rushing over, he immediately became vigilant.
Suddenly, a hand patted his shoulder. When he turned around, he saw Lin Xuan looking at him with a smile. He was just about to raise the knife in his hand when Lin Xuan punched his face.
“Ah!” The leader of the guards let out a cry as half his face sank in.
“Go, catch him!”
When the other guards saw this, they rushed towards Lin Xuan. However, just as they arrived, Lin Xuan’s figure disappeared again.
“Suppress!” Ripples came from the void as Lin Xuan’s figure quickly passed through.
Ever since he broke through to the Purple Prefecture Realm, he could use more and more methods, but he did not have the chance to use them. These people could barely let him familiarize himself with his movement technique.
In this way, dozens of guards were played around in circles. However, they did not even touch the corners of Lin Xuan’s clothes and were instead knocked down by him.
This made them even more depressed. There were many bandits who had broken into the Immortal Dynasty’s imperial palace. They had joined forces and captured Golden Core realm bandits. In the end, when facing a child who looked to be at most ten years old, they suffered.
“Ignore him. Capture that old and young one first.. Aren’t you afraid that he won’t appear?” Seeing this, these guards gave up on Lin Xuan and placed their target on this old and young pair.
