Chapter 682: Armor’s Seal
Before Yi Yun entered his reclusion, he had left an Information Stone with the Lin family. He and Lin Xintong held a corresponding piece of an Information Stone, so as long as one shattered, the other would crack as a result.
Yi Yun exhorted them to crush the Information Stone if any breaking news occurred in the Tian Yuan world, and he would receive the news as well.
Now that the Information Stone had cracked, despite having expected it, a strong ominous feeling rose up in Yi Yun’s heart. He did not know what was awaiting him.
In four hours, Yi Yun and Lin Xintong had arrived at the Lin family.
The entire Lin family was on full defense, awaiting the enemy.
Disciples guarding the Lin family’s entrance took Yi Yun and Lin Xintong to the courtyard where the Lin family’s Grand Elders discussed matters.
A blue and green tiled house stood in the courtyard that was about a hundred feet in radius. At this moment, there were hundreds of Lin family disciples gathered around it.
There both people young and old that were prohibited from entering the courtyard, but Yi Yun and Lin Xintong were directly taken in.
All the important figures of the Lin family were gathered in the courtyard. Either they were the Lin family’s Elders or the genius elites of the younger generation. There was also Matriarch Lin who sat beside a stone table in the middle of the courtyard.
Beside the Matriarch, there were three elders. Yi Yun had met two of them back at the Great Empress mystic realm trials, as for the third, it was obvious who he was. The three people were the Lin family’s three Grand Elders.
Amongst the three Lin family Grand Elders, only one of them had broken through to the Heaven Ascension realm by his own efforts. As for the other two, they only reached the level of half step into Heaven Ascension before using endless amounts of treasures to forcefully push their cultivation level into the Heaven Ascension realm. As for things like nomological insight, they did not manage to keep up, so their strength was much worse.
The leading member of the three Grand Elders sat in the middle of the stone table. He was an old man with sallow skin and squinty eyes and he was somewhat ugly.
The moment Yi Yun and Lin Xintong appeared, the elder stood up, "Come over here, have a sit quickly."
Beside the stone table, there were already spots left for Yi Yun and Lin Xintong.
In front of Yi Yun, even the Lin family Grand Elders would not demand the propriety expected for a senior. News of the battle between Yi Yun and Shen Tu Patriarch had proliferated throughout the Tian Yuan world, and Shen Tu Patriarch’s strength was stronger than any of the Lin family Grand Elders, yet he had been defeated by Yi Yun, and even came close to being killed!
The elder knew that with Yi Yun’s strength, all of them in the Lin family added up would not be his match.
Even so, Yi Yun did not ignore propriety since he was indebted to the Lin family. After giving a junior’s bow, he hurriedly asked, "Seniors, what happened?"
The elder did not speak, but took out a disk array. With some energy injected into it, scenes appeared from the disk array.
"Not a long while ago, Greatsword Mountain was annihilated with many dead. As to how Greatsword Mountain was annihilated, no one knows. As for what is recorded on the disk array, watch it yourself!"
The projection flickered, revealing a gigantic mountain. The mountain hung high in the sky, and carved on the mountain cliff were the words — Mystic Void Mountain!
Yi Yun had heard of the large sect known as Mystic Void Mountain. Their sect’s main peak was suspended midair due to a magnetic array. This large sect also had a Heaven Ascension realm Grand Elder who held down the ground.
However, when it appeared in the visual disk array, Yi Yun had a hunch that things would not go well for the sect...
Very quickly, the sky turned dark and a tall figure covered in black armor appeared along in horizon. He approached quietly like a ghost.
Upon seeing this figure, Yi Yun’s body trembled, "It’s him!"
"Who!?"
The Lin family Grand Elder’s eyes flickered. With a hand pressing on the visual disk array, the picture was put on pause.
Yi Yun faltered and said, "Black-armored Demon God!"
Yi Yun had obtained a visual disk array in the first level of the God Advent Tower. The scenes of the Azure Yang Lord slashing at the Black-armored Demon God had allowed Yi Yun to gain insights into the Sword Dao. He naturally would not make a mistake after watching the visual disk array numerous times.
In fact, the Black-armored Demon God that appeared in the sky was different in exterior appearance than the one in the visual disk array. After all, he had been destroyed by the Azure Yang Lord’s single sword strike and he had been sealed in the Demon Mountain for tens of millions of years. With accumulation of various factors, he had a completely different look.
It was also this reason why the youths, who had entered the Great Empress mystic realm with Yi Yun, did not manage to recognize the Black-armored Demon God despite catching a glimpse of the Black-armored Demon God through the visual disk array.
However, the aura that emanated from the Black-armored Demon God was not something Yi Yun could be wrong about, despite it being a record in a visual disk array!
"Who is the Black-armored Demon God?" Matriarch Lin asked solemnly. Knowing the monster’s origin might allow them to come up with a means to counter it.
Yi Yun immediately explained the history he had seen in the God Advent Tower to the Grand Elders and the Matriarch. After confirming the identity of the Black-armored Demon God, everyone from the Lin family felt their hearts go cold.
The Black-armored Demon God came from the eternal whirlpool, one of the seven Demon Disciples that destroyed the world tens of millions of years ago.
His strength was probably beyond the comprehension for many of the people present.
A Lin family Grand Elder sighed and said, "I never expected that. What should we do?"
As the elder spoke, he gently pressed the visual disk array, and the projection began to move again.
The visual disk array contained the Black-armored Demon God’s slaughtering of Mystic Void Mountain!
It was a complete disaster. The Mystic Void Mountain disciples powered the formation array by the entrance, launching intense attacks on the unwelcomed guest. With Mystic Void Mountain’s Grand Elder presiding over it, such an attack was enough to destroy Heaven Ascension realm experts. Yet, in front of the Black-armored Demon God, the attacks were like clouds that passed through him, not harming him one bit.
The gap was too large!
The Black-armored Demon God charged into the crowd and he was like a giant trampling a bunch of ants to death. They were lifeforms on completely different levels, no one had the ability to hinder him at all!
Even the Mystic Void Mountain’s Grand Elder, a Heaven Ascension realm warrior, did not manage to put up a fight in front of the Black-armored Demon God.
He killed the Grand Elder without any fanciful moves. He did not use any laws, just using absolute speed and strength, appearing before the poor old man nearly instantly.
With a crisp sound, the poor old man’s protective Yuan Qi, including his chest was pierced , splattering blood everywhere.
However, it did not end. The next scene alarmed Yi Yun and Lin Xintong greatly.
They saw the elder, who had his chest pierced through by the Black-armored Demon God’s arm, being held up in the air by an invisible force before his body began to shrink, again and again.
Finally, a seven feet tall elder was shrunk to the size of a finger segment. Following that, the tiny-sized elder was absorbed into the Black-armored Demon God’s armor and sealed in the armor.
"What!?"
Yi Yun was stunned. What was that magical power!?
