Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

”What a fine lad, even his physical body is this overwhelmingly tough!”

A streak of shock flashed across the face of the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate; the strength of Lin Langtian’s fleshy body was clearly somewhat beyond their expectations.

Even so, the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate felt no fear, because in the earlier head‑on clash, they had already sensed that they held a faint upper hand.

The Great Heavenly Evil Demon let out a cold laugh, not giving Lin Langtian the slightest chance to recover. His figure once again shot out violently, and in the next instant, a storm‑like offensive surged out, sweeping toward Lin Langtian like a torrential downpour that blotted out the sky.

Boom! Boom!

Facing that rainstorm‑like assault from the Great Heavenly Evil Demon, Lin Langtian’s expression grew grave. Ancient golden light surged across the surface of his body, dragon scales and kun wings continuously emerging as he pushed both his yuan power and physical strength to their utmost limit.

He could feel that this Great Heavenly Evil Demon was even stronger than the one the Heavenly Illusion King had previously attempted to summon; it was practically the most powerful enemy he had encountered thus far.

This was indeed an extremely troublesome opponent.

In the distance, Ling Qingzhu, Ying Xiaoxiao, and the many experts of the Anti‑Yuan Alliance all stared, hearts pounding, at the battlefield ahead. Within that war zone, a battle that made their scalps tingle was raging.

In a clash at that level, even the slightest brush of the aftershocks would wipe them out completely.

”Senior Sister Qingzhu, it looks like Brother Langtian is being suppressed by those Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate.”

Su Rou and the other experts of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace gathered at Ling Qingzhu’s side. They gazed worriedly in the direction of Lin Langtian. In that battlefield, it was clearly the Great Heavenly Evil Demon who had the upper hand, its rainstorm‑like attacks completely suppressing Lin Langtian.

Although Ling Qingzhu’s jade hands were clenched tight, her pretty face still remained relatively calm. She had known Lin Langtian for so many years and understood him on a deeper level. She knew that if Lin Langtian did not have some other powerful trump card, he would not choose such a direct head‑on struggle.

Perhaps Lin Langtian was merely waiting for the right moment.

At this level of combat, it was a game of wits and nerve to see who would first fail to endure and expose a flaw.

Rumble!

Under the many tense gazes, the gigantic golden Dragon‑Kun beast that Lin Langtian had transformed into clashed ever more fiercely with the Great Heavenly Evil Demon.

As the Great Heavenly Evil Demon’s advantage became increasingly obvious, countless experts from the Yuan Gate camp erupted into shrill cheers of excitement.

Boom!

High in the sky, Lin Langtian and the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate once again clashed with a fierce palm strike, resplendent golden light and demonic light blooming and filling the heavens.

However, at that very moment, a sinister smile surfaced at the corners of the Three Great Heads’ mouths. The incomparably ferocious giant maw of the Great Heavenly Evil Demon suddenly opened fully.

A terrifying vortex took shape within it, and an indescribable fluctuation of demonic qi swept out from that mouth, radiating the stench of death.

”Great Demonic Abyss!”

Boundless demonic qi erupted from the ferocious giant maw of the Great Heavenly Evil Demon. In the depths of that maw, a dense aura of death spread out, chilling enough to make one’s scalp go numb.

The entire land began to tremble violently at this instant. A powerful suction force surged out from the Great Heavenly Evil Demon’s mouth.

The suction force was so strong that even with Lin Langtian’s current enormous body, there were signs that he was about to be dragged away.

While the suction roared, a black halo suddenly shot out from the Great Heavenly Evil Demon’s mouth, then expanded to enfold the North Sea Dragon‑Kun that Lin Langtian had transformed into.

Whoosh!

Once the halo enveloped him, that suction force skyrocketed. Lin Langtian’s massive body was directly lifted up into the air, then hurled toward the Great Heavenly Evil Demon’s abyss‑like giant maw.

”Brat, go die!” The Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate laughed viciously, about to fully unleash their great art and swallow Lin Langtian into their belly.

Yet at that very instant, a chilling smile rose on Lin Langtian’s face. With a flick of his sleeve, a pitch‑black giant tower shot forth, swelling as it met the wind before it came crashing down to cover everything beneath it.

He knew that with his current means, if he wanted to truly decide the outcome, he still had to rely on the ”Eight Desolate Heavenly Demons.”

But this Great Heavenly Evil Demon was eerily fast, its body merged with the surrounding sea of demonic qi, making its speed even a fraction faster than his. If he directly tried to unleash the Suppressing Demon Tower, he likely would not be able to trap it at all.

So he simply chose to deliberately expose a flaw to lure the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate into taking the bait.

And things proceeded exactly as Lin Langtian had anticipated. The Three Great Heads were anxious to kill him and were indeed caught by his trap.

The Suppressing Demon Tower howled as it descended; the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate were startled, a chill shooting through their hearts. Their acute instincts picked up on a surge of unease. Out of caution, they immediately attempted to retract that abyss‑like maw.

However, they quickly realized that at some unknown moment, Lin Langtian had already reached the very center of the giant maw. His dragon arms were like iron pillars, propping the maw wide open and holding it firmly in place.

Boom!

In that brief instant of delay, the pitch‑black Suppressing Demon Tower came crashing down, completely enveloping both sides within it, then hung there quietly in the sky.

Inside the Suppressing Demon Tower.

Lin Langtian retreated in a flash. He paid no heed to the soreness in his arms and instead simply smiled faintly at the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate, who were dark‑faced as they swept their gazes around the interior. With a wave of his sleeve, a torrent formed from Mystic Yuan Pills roared forth.

Vast yuan power fluctuations spread throughout the tower’s interior.

This time, Lin Langtian had taken a full five hundred million Mystic Yuan Pills out from the Heavenly Mansion, because he understood how terrifying this Great Heavenly Evil Demon was. Since he had chosen to strike, he would show no hesitation and resort to ruthless means to settle this opponent in one go.

The torrent howled, while Lin Langtian’s hands danced, quickly forming seals. On the walls of the tower, eight ancient, ferocious demonic statues slowly emerged once again, half of their bodies protruding from the tower walls.

”Hu…”

They opened their huge maws and in a single gulp devoured the entire torrent of Mystic Yuan Pills.

”Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Demon Light!”

Cold light gathered in Lin Langtian’s eyes as he unhesitatingly activated one of the killing moves of the Eight Desolate Heavenly Demons.

All eight terrifying demonic statues extended their demon fingers, locking onto the Great Heavenly Evil Demon from afar. In the next instant, eight jet‑black beams blasted forth.

As those eight black beams shot over, the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate abruptly changed expression, terror surfacing in their eyes.

Clearly, they had sensed how frightful this killing move of Lin Langtian’s was. Even they felt a strong sense of deadly peril.

”Damn it, this guy actually has such a method!”

The Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate cursed in fury, then their hands suddenly formed seals. Boundless demonic light surged out, forming a sphere of demonic‑patterned radiance around them, completely shielding their bodies.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

The eight black beams roared over and, at the very moment of contact, pierced straight through the demonic‑patterned light sphere, then bored right through the body of the Great Heavenly Evil Demon within.

Ah!

A shrill scream rang out as the body of the Great Heavenly Evil Demon exploded at that instant, turning into a sky‑filling rain of blood.

The might of the Eight Desolate Heavenly Demons truly did not disgrace its reputation as a reduced version of the peerless Thirty‑Six Divine Powers.

As Lin Langtian rejoiced, the eight demonic statues all opened their giant maws in unison, like vortices, swallowing up every drop of the blood rain formed by the Great Heavenly Evil Demon’s explosion.

This Great Heavenly Evil Demon was formed from the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate and possessed a formidable demonic qi that was in no way inferior to that of a king‑ranked Otherworldly Demon. To the Eight Desolate Heavenly Demons, such blood was a tremendous tonic.

It did not take long to devour all of the blood. In just a moment, the blood rain that filled the tower was completely swallowed by the eight demonic statues.

After devouring such an immense quantity of demonic qi, the bodies of the eight demonic statues became even darker and more profound. The demonic might they exuded also grew far more terrifying. One of the statues’ auras had even barely reached a level comparable to that of an expert who had endured a first cycle of Samsara Tribulation.

”Oh? It evolved…”

Seeing this, Lin Langtian was briefly stunned, then revealed a look of delight.

Although only a single demonic statue had evolved, it was, after all, a beginning. In the future, as he slew more and more Otherworldly Demon Kings, the power of the Eight Desolate Heavenly Demons would reach an even higher level.

”Farewell, you three old dogs…”

After killing Tian Yuanzu and the other two, Lin Langtian gazed at the now‑empty tower interior, his heart faintly filled with a sense of desolate loss.

Who would have thought that the three Sect Masters who had once hung over his head like three massive mountains would now be suppressed with a turn of his hand? It left him feeling as if caught in a surreal dream.

Yet with his current strength, erasing Tian Yuanzu and the others was indeed no longer as exhausting as it had once been.

And from this day on, there would be no more Yuan Gate on the Xuan Domain Continent…

Outside the Suppressing Demon Tower.

Under countless watching eyes, the massive Suppressing Demon Tower floating in the sky suddenly shuddered, then rapidly shrank. A streak of light shot out, appearing before everyone’s gazes.

”It’s the Palace Master!”

When Ling Qingzhu, Ying Xiaoxiao, and the many experts of the Heavenly Mansion saw that emerging figure, they could not help but cry out in excitement. All their faces were filled with wild joy.

They had clearly never expected that the outcome between Lin Langtian and the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate would be decided so quickly.

One had to know that the Great Heavenly Evil Demon formed by those Three Great Heads was comparable to a Samsara stage expert. If Lin Langtian could defeat it, did that not mean that he had also stepped into the Samsara stage?

At that thought, everyone present held their breaths, staring in disbelief at that tall, green‑robed figure.

To think that such a young Samsara‑stage expert was also the master of the Heavenly Mansion—he was truly unfathomable…

In stark contrast to their ecstasy, the Yuan Gate camp had fallen into dead silence. Countless Yuan Gate experts stared at this scene, their faces drained of color and filled with horror.

They could not believe that their three incomparably powerful Sect Masters would be defeated at the hands of the rising star, Lin Langtian.

Those were the invincible Sect Masters in their hearts!

Lin Langtian, however, paid no attention to the waves of shock rippling through the heavens and earth, because he faintly sensed that something was wrong.

After the auras of the Three Great Heads of Yuan Gate had completely vanished, the demonic corpses and Yuan Gate experts throughout the area began to tumble from the sky one after another. Streams of demonic qi surged out of their bodies and rapidly dispersed into the surroundings.

”Look up there.” someone suddenly cried in alarm.

Lin Langtian lifted his head slightly and immediately saw a thick, impenetrable dome of demonic light spreading through the sky, enveloping this entire region.

On that dome of demonic aura, countless eerie demonic patterns writhed. This light curtain seemed to have cut off all connection between this place and the outside world.

Everyone’s faces grew grim at the sight.

The heavy demonic light screen covered the heavens, and in the extremely far distance it descended to the ground, like an overturned bowl that had sealed everyone inside.

The expressions of those present turned somewhat pale as they sensed the demonic qi contained within that barrier.

They could feel that this miniature demonic world was likely Yuan Gate’s final mutual‑destruction trump card, seemingly seamless and without any apparent flaw.

The originally blazing and ferocious battle had become eerily quiet at this moment. All those bloodthirsty demonic corpses from before had completely dispersed.

High in the sky, the experts of the Anti‑Yuan Alliance all exchanged looks. Then they turned their worried gazes to the demonic light curtain above, a sense of unease beginning to spread.

”What do we do now?” Ying Xiaoxiao asked softly with a frown as she heard the growing unrest.

”The demonic qi here is too heavy. With our strength, we can still endure it, but if some of the ordinary experts stay here for too long, they might be corroded by the demonic qi,” Ying Xuanzhi said.

Lin Langtian’s eyes were also fixed on that incomparably thick demonic light curtain. ”We have to find a way to break it,” he said.

As his voice faded, just as Lin Langtian was preparing to act personally and break the barrier, a thunderous boom suddenly rang out within this demonic micro‑world.

Boom!

The deafening noise was like a clap of thunder. At the same time, the entire demonic world seemed to quake violently.

Crack!

Right after that, a fine crack suddenly appeared on the demonic light curtain. In just a dozen breaths, the fissure had already stretched to over ten zhang in length.

”Look, that demonic light curtain has cracked open!” someone shouted.

Everyone raised their heads and indeed saw a fissure on the barrier. Lin Langtian’s eyes flickered as a thought crossed his mind. ”Someone is attacking this demonic light curtain from outside,” he murmured.

”Could it be Brother Dong?”

As Lin Langtian considered this possibility, the booming sounds rang out again and again, and the fissure in the demonic light curtain grew larger and larger, until finally—

Bang!

With an earth‑shaking explosion, the crack on the demonic barrier was finally pierced through.

A beam of sunlight streamed through the gap, and the outside world’s natural yuan power poured in, immediately disrupting the circulation of this demonic banquet world.

In an instant, dense fracturing lines spread across the surface of the light curtain before it finally shattered completely with a resounding bang.

Warm sunlight once again flooded the land below. At the same time, three figures appeared in the sky. The leader stood tall and straight, with a firm and resolute face. Who else could it be but Lin Dong, who had hurried back?

Seeing this, Lin Langtian smiled slightly, not at all surprised. He was just about to step forward to greet them when his expression suddenly changed drastically, as if he had sensed something. Slowly, he turned his head, his gaze shifting toward a nearby mountain peak.

There, a black silhouette stood with its hands clasped behind its back. It stood there like a stone statue, without the slightest hint of aura, completely impossible to sense, yet its existence was undeniably real. This bizarre sensation made even the newly arrived Lin Dong’s face grow solemn.

”Hehe, after plotting for so many years, it’s rather a pity that all of the chess pieces have been destroyed in such a fashion,” the black silhouette murmured, looking toward Lin Langtian.
