Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 1701 - 1692: Rules
"It’s Lin Luochen! The future Realm Lord of Jiuzhen World!"
The appearance of Lin Luochen instantly drew the attention of everyone present.
Some couldn’t help but frown, especially the cultivators native to the Three Pure Realm, feeling a sense of foreboding.
Evidently, for them, Lin Luochen was also a genius from the Outer Domain.
At this critical juncture, his emergence was tantamount to standing on the side of Lin Rushan.
This was extremely unfavorable for the Chi Emperor, causing the previously balanced stand-off to take a sudden turn for the worse!
"Buzz..."
Almost at the moment Lin Luochen appeared, a few powerful auras erupted in Hong City.
From several directions within Hong City, vibrant streaks shot into the sky; they were the Green Emperor, Jiang Chen, and other young talents of the Three Pure Realm!
"Lin Luochen, what are you planning to do?"
The Green Emperor squinted his eyes. Behind him, not only were there Jiang Chen and Mu Ruqing, but also several geniuses from the Chu Sacred Land and ancient families, nearly ten in total, appearing in the void not far from Lin Luochen.
This was a fair battle; the Green Emperor could not allow interference, and to prevent any unexpected incident for the Chi Emperor, he had to step forward.
Facing the piercing gaze of the Green Emperor and others, Lin Luochen merely shook his head, "I have no intention of aiding any side. I just think this battle should end; continuing it carries no meaning."
"Without determining a victor, how can it end?"
Lin Rushan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes still brimming with fighting intent, and spoke coldly.
"If you continue the fight, it will benefit neither of you. Let it go, or else today, one side will inevitably fall." Lin Luochen looked at Lin Rushan and said earnestly.
"As a cultivator, why fear a battle? Even if it leads to death, so be it! Without determining a victor, how is there any reason to stop? Stand aside, let me defeat him, and only then will this battle truly conclude." Lin Rushan made no concession, determined to continue the fight.
Lin Luochen frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Even if you defeat him, what then? Killing someone in this realm, you won’t leave alive."
"Laughable, do you think the Chiwu Alliance behind him, with the Chi Saint Emperor presiding, would dare to strike me down? Not to mention this diminutive Three Pure Realm is insignificant among the Ten Thousand Realms. While my Lin Family might not be sovereigns of the Mingyun Realm, we possess Reverse Life Great Power. I can kill a man here and leave as I please—who dares to stop me?" Lin Rushan sneered, disdain reflecting in his eyes.
"The Chiwu Alliance may be insignificant to your Lin Family, but don’t forget, even in decline, this realm still has the Realm Lord who holds the Divine Tablet." Lin Luochen warned.
Lin Rushan’s face again showed disdain at his words, and he sneered, "Are you referring to Mo Venerable on that Holy Mountain?"
"He may have the ability to expel the Zuimo Saint from this realm, but I’ve heard he hasn’t entered the Reverse Life Mirror, right? Would he dare kill me?"
"I am just giving you friendly advice; if you insist on ignoring it, I won’t force you. But now that I’ve spoken, take care of yourself."
Lin Luochen frowned, shook his head, then glanced at the Green Emperor and others, slightly bowing politely, and with that, his body turned into a streak of light, disappearing from the sky.
Lin Luochen’s appearance was just an accident; it did not cease the battle. Lin Rushan pressed on relentlessly, with no intention of retreating. To him, only when one of them fell would the battle truly end. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"Will you continue to stop me?"
After Lin Luochen left, Lin Rushan’s gaze turned back to the Green Emperor and others.
"The start of this battle was due to your relentless aggression. The Chi Emperor has shown no intention of fighting you from the beginning; it was all out of necessity. Now that we have intervened, this battle must have an end. Whether a win or a loss, today’s fight concludes here. If you insist on fighting, wait until you both recover and duel again."
The Green Emperor stood amidst the void, glanced at the Chi Emperor behind him, covered in wounds, fatigue written on his face, and spoke thusly.
"Unfortunately, my intent is to conclude it today; I will not wait."
As the Green Emperor’s words just fell, Lin Rushan laughed coldly. No sooner had he finished speaking, ripples spread through the surrounding void, and three white-robed elders stepped out from the emptiness.
"Young Master!"
The aura from these three elders gave the Green Emperor and others an oppressive feeling; evidently, they were all at least Divine Realm Great Mahayana and addressed Lin Rushan as Young Master. Their identity was evident.
"Don’t let anyone interfere with me," Lin Rushan commanded.
"Yes!"
The three elders responded, immediately unleashing magnificent divine power to the utmost, surrounding the Green Emperor and others. One said, "We ask that you heed our Young Master’s words and do not interfere in this battle, or else..."
He didn’t finish his words, but the implication was clear.
The Green Emperor and others frowned; these three were clearly powerful, and after the previous battle with Xuanyuan Kongbai, the Green Emperor had yet to fully recover.
"Troublesome... On Lin Rushan, I sense an unusual energy. He must possess some supreme treasure. The Chi Emperor has given his all; if Lin Rushan uses that treasure..."
The Green Emperor frowned deeply, a sense of foreboding lingered in his mind. To him, if the battle continued, the Chi Emperor might fall. This was why he was adamant about stopping the fight.
"Even pushing me this far is admirable, but unfortunately, you are destined to lose this battle, and the price of defeat is death. Today, no one can save you."
In the high sky, with the three elders holding back the Green Emperor and others, Lin Rushan’s gaze turned back to the Chi Emperor. Speaking with a cold sneer, his eyes brimming with killing intent, "Rules are set by people, and so can be broken. But with your strength, you are hardly worthy to disregard my rules!"
An arrogant and unrestrained tirade poured from Li Rushan’s mouth. In the eyes of his Lin Family, the Three Pure Realm, unable to produce even a Reverse Life Mirror expert, was insignificant, and the rules were nothing but decorations.
"Buzz..."
Yet suddenly, almost as Li Rushan’s words fell, the void space above his head abruptly ruptured, and an astonishing Holy Path Sword Light flashed forth, carrying immense killing intent.
"Rules are made by people, and so are broken, but with you, you are not yet qualified to ignore my rules!"
A cold snort followed, like the divine sound of the Great Dao, rolling across the sky above Hong City. From the fractured void, a pair of eyes seemed to emerge, fixing intently on Li Rushan. Simultaneously, the sword light descended like thunder, closing in on Li Rushan’s head in an instant.
