Chapter 558: Chapter 557: He Is the Dawn in the Darkness, Fame Soaring! [Part 3]

He was too dazzling, truly unparalleled in elegance.

Even the Pure-blooded Phoenix, worshipped by the world, could not shine as brightly as he did.

From the moment he appeared, he attracted the eyes of countless beings.

"That’s the person in the portrait, that’s the person in the portrait!!"

Many creatures pointed excitedly toward the sky, their faces filled with incredulous expressions.

"It really is him!"

"That rising legendary figure!"

"The first under the Saints!"

Lin Heng’s name was too great, especially after the Demon Realm, his deeds thoroughly spread throughout the Grand Thousand Upper Realm.

Not only were there portraits, but his fame was spread to every corner of the world.

Even in the Southern Heaven Continent, there were many admirers who erected statues for him.

Certainly, this was due to Lin Heng’s fame resonating throughout the Universe, but mostly because Lin Heng’s ascension site was in this Southern Heaven Continent!

The beings of the Southern Heaven Continent took pride in this.

So their admiration for the East Desolate Daoist Lord was far greater than in other continents.

Especially the subjects of the Hidden Dragon Dynasty.

Among them, many were already believers of Lin Heng while in the Human World.

Even now, there are no fewer than tens of thousands of statues and Divine Temples dedicated to Lin Heng within the Hidden Dragon Dynasty!

With doomsday at hand, how could they not be shocked and moved by his appearance to save them?

For the Hidden Dragon Dynasty that ascended from the Lower Realm, how could they not be overwhelmed and deeply moved?

"That Daoist, after all these years, is still as he once was."

"Always stepping up in times of crisis for us..."

"He... I truly..."

Countless people wept, their faces covered, joy and guilt coexisting, feeling immensely indebted to him.

And as for the Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect at this moment, how could it be any different?

The entire Immortal Sect had been in despair, ready to await death’s arrival.

Yet, who could have thought?

That man actually appeared?

He actually traversed the Immortal Realm to arrive here!!

This was incredibly unbelievable...

Within Spirit Peak, almost everyone looked enviously at the Saintess Yan Tong.

But at that time, Yan Tong seemed to forget everything around her. She stood there, her small, cherry lips agape, staring dumbfoundedly at the figure in the sky, her beautiful eyes filled with shock and slowly welling with tears.

At this moment, the Flame Immortal Master was also filled with mixed emotions.

"Unbelievable..." she murmured, her eyes complicated as she looked at the figure above, then glanced at her disciple, who had long lost her composure, and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly: "Anyone who meets such a person in their youth is bound to remember them for a long time..."

Lin Heng’s appearance for the Southern Heaven Continent was nothing less than a ray of sunshine, breaking through the clouds and fog.

At this moment, the atmosphere of despair and dejection in the Southern Heaven Continent had already been swept away.

In its place was the excitement and cheers of joyful tears.

Countless beings danced with joy. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Those kneeling toward the sky were like waves piling upon waves under a fierce wind.

The subtitles in Lin Heng’s mind were like snowflakes filling the sky, dense and endless.

He could feel that his followers were rapidly increasing.

The prestige he gained reached an unprecedented level.

Although the Southern Heaven Continent was remote and its number of beings far less than the several Eastern Domain Continents currently ruled by the Daoist Court.

But the territory of the Daoist Court mostly consisted of newly conquered lands, and most beings there didn’t care about the Supreme ruler of their region, let alone worshipped them.

But the Southern Heaven Continent right now was different.

The beings here were facing doomsday!

Almost all beings thought they were doomed.

Yet, in their moment of despair, Lin Heng appeared.

He appeared bringing the hope of life!

For all beings in the Southern Heaven Continent, one can only imagine what kind of shock and joy this was!

However, where there is joy, there is naturally worry.

For instance, the group of Demon Kings at this moment, each with a horrified face and trembling bodies.

They stared at the distant pit, where Zhu Yan was slowly climbing up.

At this moment, Zhu Yan had lost all its usual majesty and demeanor, with half its body cut open, its bones and flesh exposed, blood gushing forth.

After falling into the pit, it was covered in dust and dirt.

It was as pathetic as a stray dog.

Where was there any semblance of the fierce beast Zhu Yan?

"A sword struck across millions of miles—is that the power of the Immortal Slaying Sword?"

"Is that the terrifying strength of the first under the Saints?"

"Heavens..."

Despite having heard tales of the Lord of the Dao Court countless times, enough for their ears to grow calluses.

But really seeing the strength displayed in person.

The hearts of the Demons were still tumultuous as waves.

There was no way around it.

That scene was too shocking!

A sword extending millions of miles, striking a Quasi-Saint into the dust.

It was simply astonishing.

It made one question whether it was indeed a Saint taking action!

"Good heavens, to think it reached such an abnormal level..."

The Celestial Demon Emperor beside the Phoenix Ancestor’s mouth was agape in shock.

He knew that Lin Heng had already left him far behind, reaching a level that even made the old one fear.

But seeing Lin Heng almost slay a Quasi-Saint with one sword still left the Celestial Demon Emperor instinctively stunned.

"A monstrous being, truly a monstrous being!" the Celestial Demon Emperor clicked his tongue repeatedly, looking at Lin Heng with a gaze now fully convinced and admiring.

The Phoenix Ancestor wiped his brow secretly, grateful for having a good son.

If not for this connection.

Once the matter in the Demon Realm is settled, the Phoenix Lineage might have faced the same fate as the Pure-blooded Qilin, disappearing from the world...

Thinking of this, even the Phoenix Ancestor, considered one of the Supreme beings, revealed a rather ingratiating smile and asked, "Daoist friend, is there anything I can do?"

Lin Heng calmly shook his head, "No need."

Saying this, he walked toward Zhu Yan step by step.

Along the way, he sensed something, and his cold gaze turned to a group of Demon Kings trying to sneak away while suppressing their presence.

Merely a single glance.

Made those Demon Kings, who had followed Zhu Yan and slaughtered over a dozen continents, feel a chill down their spines collectively.

One of the Ancestral Immortal Demon Kings, nervously swallowed, barely maintaining composure as he spoke with a trembling voice, "That Daoist Lord, the Eastern Immortal Realm has already been given to you, so please don’t..."

Bang!

The voice was abruptly halted.

The Ancestral Immortal Demon King instantly exploded into a mist of blood.

This terrifying scene scared the rest of the Demon Kings out of their wits, leaving them with no choice but to flee in panic like startled birds.

But where could they escape to?

Lin Heng did not even need to take action; with a mere sweep of his cold gaze, a terrible aura of slaughter pierced through all the Demon Kings, causing them to explode simultaneously, leaving no remains!

Terrifying!

Lin Heng, at this moment, was horrifyingly terrifying!

He truly demonstrated what it means for all beneath the Quasi-Saint to be mere ants!
