Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2145

“Tian Fei, Zhao Meng, you are going too far …” Not expecting the number one genius of the Lin Clan to be pummeled by the clan head, Clan Head Lin couldn’t hold himself back anymore.

Peng peng peng!

After a few slaps, he fell to the ground with a dumbfounded look on his face.

Even though he wasn’t a match for Lin Xie, he was still able to defeat Tian Fei, Zhao Meng, and the others easily. When did they become so formidable?

It was as if they could see through his moves in advance. No matter what kind of martial arts they practiced, they were unable to withstand a single blow!

“Challenge all of the disciples of the Lin Clan to a duel!”

Just as Clan Head Lin was wondering what was going on, Tian Fei suddenly harrumphed coldly.

Following which, a crippled young man walked out from behind him.

Clan Head Lin recognized him. He was a well-known trash of the Tian Clan. Ever since he had sustained an injury, he had become the weakest among his peers.

It didn’t take long for the crippled young man to arrive before the disciples of the Lin Clan. In less than ten minutes, he had already single-handedly challenged dozens of disciples of the Lin Clan!

“…” Clan Head Lin was frenzied.

Since when did this trash become so powerful?

Just what was going on with the Tian Clan?

An hour later, all of the experts of the Lin Clan had been challenged by their peers, and none of them emerged victorious.

“Hurry up and investigate! How did they become so powerful all of a sudden?”

The Three Great Clans often competed with each other openly and in the shadows. Under normal circumstances, the Lin Clan would always be at the top, and no one would be able to contend against them. When had they ever been so easily crushed to the point where they couldn’t put up any resistance at all?

“Yes …” The butler hurriedly left the room, and not too long later, he returned with a bruised face.

“What happened? Could it be that they are still blocking the entrance? “Clan Head Lin gritted his teeth.

All he did was speak ill of the city lord. Was it really necessary for the two Premier Clans to block the entrance?

“That’s not it. I met a few beggars on the way here. I thought that I could have easily crushed them, but all of a sudden, they turned into experts and beat me up …” The butler was on the verge of tears.

“Beggars?” Clan Head Lin trembled in fear.

How could beggars bully the Lin Clan?

“I heard that they have listened to the city lord’s lecture, and that’s why they have become so formidable. Their cultivation and fighting prowess have soared …” the butler said.

“Listened to the city lord’s lecture? Do you have any recordings of the lessons? “Lin Xie asked.

“I spent a lot of money and finally found one …”

The butler nodded before taking out a Record Crystal and passing it over.

Infusing his zhenqi into the stone tablet, Zhang Xuan quickly took a look and saw a young man seated on the stone tablet.

After listening for a while, Lin Xie and Patriarch Lin both collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, they finally understood why the Tian Clan and Zhao Clan had suddenly become so powerful that they were far from being a match for them. It was all because they had listened to the lessons of the new city lord!

“The video recording can only record sounds. It’s no longer of much use in raising one’s cultivation … Our Lin Clan has lost our best opportunity. In the future … we will be removed from the ranks of the Three Major Clans and become a second-rate force …”

With a bitter look on their faces, Clan Head Lin and Lin Xie finally understood what was going on.

Although the Record Jade Crystal could record images, the effect was far inferior to hearing it live. They had lost the best opportunity, and the decline of their clan was already a foregone conclusion.

“If only I knew that you’re so powerful, I would’ve listened to Ming Laixiang’s words …”

Tears streamed down Lin Xie’s face.

It was no wonder Ming Laixiang was so formidable. She had obediently listened to Ming Laixiang and helped her ascend to the position of the city lord.

If he had lowered his pride and listened to Ming Laixiang’s lecture back then, he would probably still be the second strongest person in Dusklight City. However, there were no ifs in this world. Even after expending the strength of the Eight Great Master Teachers, he was still unable to defeat Tian Fei and the others.

It was destined that he, Lin Xie, and the entire Lin Clan, would become the greatest joke of Dusklight City!

…

“This is the core of the Sky of Drifting Specter, Drifting Specter Royal City!”

Qi Ling-er, who was unaware of what had happened in Dusklight City and the decline of the strongest clan in the Sky of Drifting Specter, remarked as she looked at the dazed faces of the crowd.

Zhang Xuan turned his gaze over as well.

The few of them were currently standing in the middle of a massive circular Teleportation Formation. The formation had just come to an end, and intense spatial fluctuations could still be felt in the surroundings.

During the four-hour lecture last night, countless low-tier Gods had made breakthroughs to middle-tier Gods, middle-tier Gods, and high-tier Gods. The number of people who had made breakthroughs in Dusklight City in a single night far surpassed the total number of people who had made breakthroughs in the past thirty years.

For a time, a spiritual energy vacuum had appeared above the city.

More importantly, be it humans, divine beasts, or sentient artifacts, as long as they listened to Qi Ling-er’s lecture, they would be enlightened and advance their cultivation.

For a time, the entire Dusklight City was filled with admiration for the new city lord.

Of course, this was already a common sight for Zhang Xuan, so he did not think much of it.

Leaving the Teleportation Formation, Zhang Xuan looked at Royal City. It was many times larger than Dusklight City, and there were many more people in the city as well.

The city was clean and tidy, and the buildings were arranged in an orderly manner. There were all kinds of divine beasts flying in the air, and there were mountains floating in the sky. Clouds shrouded the area, making it difficult to tell where one was.

“Those who are able to live in the Aerial God Mountains in Royal City are all powerful clans and powers. Even the weakest among them is a high-tier Celestial God!”

Seeing Zhang Xuan’s expression, Qi Ling-er explained.

“High-tier Celestial God … As expected of Royal City, it sure is fearsome!”

Zhang Jia muttered to himself.

As a high-tier God, it was already able to strut around Twilight City, not even bothering to look down on the city lord. However, there were simply too many experts before it.

Putting everything aside, with just a casual glance, it had already noticed at least five divine beasts whose cultivation was significantly higher than its own.

It was still a little proud a moment ago, but it quickly retracted its pride, not daring to say anything anymore.

It was as if a millionaire had suddenly appeared on Wall Street. It had thought that he was rich, but after seeing these people, he realized that he was nothing more than a speck of dust.

“What’s there to be afraid of? With Brother Qiang around, I’ll bring you to conquer Drifting Specter Royal City!” Sun Qiang said with a confident smile.

Zhang Xuan’s eyebrows shot up in astonishment.

Given how weak your talent is, why are you so confident?

Zhang Jia did not say a word. Instead, he pushed Sun Qiang’s hand away from his shoulder and turned to Little Chick with a smile. “Boss, is there anything I can do for you?”

Little Chick replied impassively, “I want to die … Why don’t you die for me first?”

“…”

Zhang Xuan clutched his forehead.

What in the world was this bunch of trash?

“Let’s find a place to stay first. Do you have a place to stay here?”

Paying no heed to those weirdos, Zhang Xuan turned his gaze to Qi Ling-er.

If he was alone, it did not matter whether he could stay or not. However, with his parents following behind him, he needed to find a place to rest.

As fast as the Teleportation Formation was, they were still far from being a match for it. Forcefully using it would still cause some damage to their bodies.

“I have been living in my clan all this while. I left Royal City as soon as I came of age,” Qi Ling-er replied awkwardly.

“Let’s find a place to stay then.”

Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

On the way there, he had learned that Qi Ling-er’s clan was one of the more powerful clans in Royal City. As an outsider, there was no way he would be able to stay there. Furthermore, there were many rules and regulations in Royal City, so it would be much easier for him to gather information.

As there were many outsiders in Royal City, it was not too difficult to find a place to stay. In less than two hours, he found a residence that he was satisfied with. However, it was much more expensive than in Twilight City.

Nevertheless, to the current Zhang Xuan, this was nothing much.

Zhang Xuan took out a few bottles of God Essence Pills and passed them over to Qi Ling-er. “Here are fifty Beauty Pills. Find a way to sell them and look into the matter regarding the Spirit God.”

On the way there, he had bought quite a few low-tier God Essence Pills with the money he had earned from selling the Beauty Pills.

To him, a surge of zhenqi did not cost too much.

“Alright.” Qi Ling-er turned around and walked out of the residence.

“Go and look into the layout of Royal City and the various powers there. If you can’t find Lu Chong, ask him where the genius whom Demon Monarch Qiankun brought over is, “Zhang Xuan sent a telepathic message to Sun Qiang.

Lu Chong had made a breakthrough on the Celestial Mountain, and he had been taken away by Demon Monarch Qiankun of the Sky of Drifting Specter. Most likely, he was in Royal City.

As for where he was, Zhang Xuan had no idea.

“Yes!” Sun Qiang nodded before backing out of the residence.

The two of them left. After making arrangements for his parents, Zhang Xuan took out the pendant in his robe and fell into deep thought.

Where in the world was Lozosy?

As for her identity in the Firmament … he had no idea at all!

However, based on the interactions he had with Luo Ruoxin, it was likely that she held a high position in the Firmament. Otherwise, she would not have been so cautious.

“Perhaps … I can start from this droplet of blood!”

Looking at the crimson liquid in the pendant, Zhang Xuan’s heart jolted.

The pendant was given to him by Lozosy, so he had no idea whether the blood sealed within was hers or not. However, even if it wasn’t, there was no doubt that it was related to her.

He might not be able to find out Luo Ruoxin’s identity through other means, but this thing might be able to!

If he used the blood well, he would be able to find out many things, including the exact location of the other party!

“Let me give it a try!”

Previously, he had been too weak to get close to it. However, with his physical body, soul, and divine energy having reached high-tier God realm pinnacle, he should be able to come into contact with it.

After setting up a formation in the surroundings, Zhang Xuan flicked his finger, and the pendant floated in the air.

With a thought, Zhang Xuan sent a sliver of his will into the pendant.

He had no idea what kind of crystal the surface of the pendant was made of, but it was extraordinarily resilient. He was unable to breach it with his current strength, but he was still able to send his will into it.

Soon, he came into contact with it.

The droplet of blood lay quietly within the pendant, seemingly devoid of any energy. At the same time, it felt like a heavy rock, unable to move at all.

Perplexed, Zhang Xuan sent his will into the pendant.

Boom!

As soon as he came into contact with the droplet of blood, his body jolted. A familiar aura flowed through his body, and the ancient words that he had heard not too long ago echoed in his mind once more.

“The world is heartless, treating all living things as mere straw dogs …”

“The sun and moon waver, the world is imperfect …”

“The laws of the universe, the Heavens are in order …”

“The path of the great dao, the world is fair …”

Boom!

Hearing those words, the Library of Heaven’s Path jolted violently, and Zhang Xuan felt his vision spinning.

Peng!

He fell from his bed and fainted on the spot.
