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

Martial Gathering Island was suddenly plunged into darkness as endless demonic qi swept across the sky.

Heaven and earth seemed to tremble violently under the shroud of that colossal demonic shadow.

At the same time, countless gazes on the island lifted in horror.

They stared at that demonic shadow.

A fear akin to that of the ninth level of hell erupted from the depths of their hearts like a volcano, causing their faces to turn deathly pale in an instant.

That colossal demonic shadow seemed to be the emperor of a foreign world.

It descended in an utterly domineering manner.

On this continent, none could oppose it.

”Is that the Yimo Emperor?” Lin Langtian’s expression was solemn as he stared at that shadow, murmuring softly.

”That is only a projection of that emperor of the Yimo clan. Within that skeletal sigil, there is merely a single strand of the Yimo Emperor’s hair.” Ling Ying’s voice sounded at this moment.

”A strand of the Yimo Emperor’s hair… a projection?”

Shock flickered across Lin Langtian’s face. Just one strand of hair possessed such terrifying power.

This Yimo Emperor, who had brought such tremendous calamity to the Tianxuan Continent, was truly anything but simple. No wonder even the Symbol Ancestor had been forced to burn himself to seal it away.

”Haha, Lin Langtian, this is the day you die!”

Beneath that Demon Emperor projection, the Sixth and Seventh King Halls wore hideous expressions. They shot Lin Langtian a vicious grin as their hand seals suddenly shifted.

Boom!

As their seals changed, the Demon Emperor’s shadow slowly raised its hand and gently slapped down at Lin Langtian.

As that massive demonic palm descended, there was not even a visible surge of energy, yet a fatal sense of danger erupted in Lin Langtian’s heart.

Just as he tried to dodge, he realized in horror that the space around him had solidified, rendering him unable to move.

”Hmph!”

Lin Langtian snorted coldly as dazzling silver flashed through his originally dark pupils. The power of the Demonic Sky surged wildly from within his body.

Boom!

The massive demonic palm passed by, and even the surrounding space seemed to be slapped into nothingness.

Then, under the sinister gazes of the Sixth and Seventh King Halls, that enormous palm landed on Lin Langtian’s body.

When the demonic hand swept through the area where Lin Langtian had been, there was no one there.

This caused the countless experts of the Heavenly Wind Sea Region below to pale. Had Lin Langtian been slapped into nothingness?

”So the Spatial Ancestral Symbol was also fused with Yimo power… this kid really is bizarre.” The Sixth and Seventh King Halls exchanged a glance, their brows furrowing tightly as they looked toward the distance.

The space there was pitch-black and slightly distorted as Lin Langtian’s figure eerily emerged.

However, his face at this moment was equally grave.

”You won’t be escaping this time.” The Sixth and Seventh King Halls sneered, their hand seals changing once more as the Demon Emperor’s projection raised its palm again.

Roar!

A glint of cold light flashed in Lin Langtian’s eyes as a draconic roar and kun’s cry erupted from his body. At the same time, ancient kun wings and dragon horns, crackling with golden lightning, unfolded.

Seeing the dragon horns and kun wings and the unparalleled dominance emanating from Lin Langtian, everyone present felt an intense pressure weighing upon them.

Having entered the Dragon Kun Thunder Body, Lin Langtian clearly pushed his Yuan Power to the extreme. An immensely terrifying aura poured out of him.

Boom!

Lin Langtian’s expression turned icy as he slapped out with his right hand. The dragon-kun phantom around him soared skyward, then charged straight at the massive hand of the Demon Emperor’s projection.

Bang!

With a deafening explosion, the enormous demonic palm and the dragon-kun phantom collided. The surrounding space for ten thousand meters shattered like a mirror, layer after layer.

Yet the Demon Emperor’s hand merely paused for a brief moment before everyone watched the dragon-kun phantom dissolve into nothingness in an instant.

On the island, countless experts from the Heavenly Wind Sea Region could not help but show worry on their faces at this scene.

If Lin Langtian was defeated, their Heavenly Wind Sea Region and even the entire Chaotic Demon Sea would likely be doomed.

High in the sky, Lin Langtian saw that such a powerful attack had no effect at all, and his expression grew even more serious.

The strength of this Demon Emperor projection was likely comparable to that of an expert who had crossed three Reincarnation Tribulations!

While Lin Langtian’s face darkened, Ling Qingzhu’s expression fluctuated upon seeing this. Then she bit her lip, her azure longsword thrusting out like a venomous snake, stabbing at the true king before her with lightning speed.

”Hmph, courting death!”

A strange light suddenly spread across the azure sword. The true king, who had just been wearing a disdainful expression, saw this and his pupils shrank abruptly. He tried to retreat, but the sword’s speed suddenly doubled, piercing his chest like a bolt of lightning.

Slash!

As a true king who had passed a single Reincarnation Tribulation, his physical body was as tough as some divine weapons. Yet at this moment, the azure sword penetrated his chest, and thick, black blood flowed along its blade.

”You!”

The agony in his chest twisted the true king’s face. Just as he was about to fight back, an even stronger wave of that strange light surged from the azure sword.

Under the pressure of that mysterious radiance, the true king’s body began to swell like a balloon.

”Ah, no!”

A shrill scream rang out. When the true king’s body swelled to a certain degree, it exploded with a bang like a shower of flesh, accompanied by a thunderous blast.

Whoosh!

An arc of azure sword light flashed out. Before the true king’s demonic embryo could flee a hundred meters, it was cleaved by a single stroke from Ling Qingzhu, his aura vanishing completely.

After dispatching this true king cleanly and efficiently, Ling Qingzhu’s expression did not change much. Her gaze shifted in the direction of Lin Langtian’s battle. After a moment of hesitation, she quickly shot toward him.

”You’re here. It’s too dangerous in this place. Go below and help the experts of the Heavenly Wind Sea Region. Leave things here to me.” Lin Langtian was briefly stunned when he saw her approach, but his tone quickly turned grave.

The Demon Emperor’s projection was far too powerful. Even he lacked absolute confidence in victory and could not let Ling Qingzhu step into such danger.

Seeing how anxious he was about her safety, a sweet smile surfaced on Ling Qingzhu’s face. She gently bit her silver teeth, and a hint of seductive charm suddenly appeared on her elegant and cool features.

That smile, appearing on Ling Qingzhu’s cold and stunning face, seemed to drain all color from the world.

”I suddenly feel like teaching you the ’Taishang Induction Art.’ What should we do about that?”

Lin Langtian blinked at those unexpected words, then seemed to realize something as he glanced around at the onlookers. ”Isn’t it… a bit inappropriate to learn it right now?”

Ling Qingzhu’s delicate earlobes turned bright red as she gently bit her silver teeth. She spared a quick glance at the Demon Emperor projection. ”Can you use some means to hold it off for a while?”

Lin Langtian hesitated slightly. ”Although that Demon Emperor projection is incredibly powerful, it shouldn’t be too difficult to stall it for a while.”

As his voice faded, he clenched his hand. A blazing formation of flames appeared in his palm, swelling rapidly in the wind. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a massive Scarlet Bird Formation, enveloping the Sixth and Seventh King Halls and the Demon Emperor’s projection.

Whoosh!

As soon as the Scarlet Bird Formation formed, Lin Langtian released Ling Ying, instructing her to guard the formation from within.

With Ling Ying and her formation holding the line, even the Demon Emperor’s projection would need to expend some time to break through.

”This formation should hold them off for a while, but it will only be able to delay them.”

Lin Langtian exhaled twice, looking at the Scarlet Bird Formation covering the sky. Torrents of immense flame energy surged within it, isolating the raging demonic qi.

Although Ling Ying was not a true formation grandmaster, simple defensive formations were easy for her. With her help, temporarily holding back the Demon Emperor’s projection and the two King Halls would not be a problem.

With his attention shifting back, Lin Langtian turned toward Ling Qingzhu. At this moment, she was nothing like her usual cool self. Her cheeks were flushed, making her look irresistibly alluring.

For a moment, Lin Langtian could not help staring. Then he held her jade hand tightly and said in a low voice, ”Have you really decided to teach me the Taishang Induction Art?

If you don’t want to, you shouldn’t force yourself. The Demon Emperor’s projection is indeed powerful, but if it truly pushes me too far, it won’t have an easy time either.”

Warmth rose in Ling Qingzhu’s heart at his words, yet she shook her head slightly. Then she slowly extended her jade hand. Resting upon that hand, as flawless as if carved by heaven itself, was a dark-red pill.

”You… you should take this.” Ling Qingzhu gently brought the pill to Lin Langtian’s lips, her tone soft.

Seeing the dark-red pill, Lin Langtian paused. Though he had an inkling of its purpose, looking at the tenderness in Ling Qingzhu’s eyes, he could only sigh inwardly.

Even after twice before, it seemed… Ling Qingzhu still could not fully relax.

So Lin Langtian directly swallowed the pill. As it entered his body, a surge of heat rose violently within him.

At the same time, a wave of dizziness suddenly roiled through his mind.

The dizziness grew so strong that Lin Langtian’s eyelids slowly drooped, and a heavy drowsiness swept over him.

”Qingzhu…” In the blur of his vision, Lin Langtian muttered her name.

”Be good. When you wake up, everything will be fine.” Ling Qingzhu’s slender jade hand gently caressed Lin Langtian’s handsome face as she bit her lips lightly, her voice as gentle as water.

Although Lin Langtian wanted to fight off the drowsiness, he eventually chose to surrender to it.

With the help of the pill, his eyelids closed and his world went completely dark.

Ling Qingzhu gazed at the unconscious Lin Langtian. Her flawless face was flushed scarlet. She lightly bit her silver teeth, mumbling under her breath in a voice as small as a mosquito’s buzz.

”Idiot… this Taishang Induction Art doesn’t even have a complete method of cultivation. It’s merely a profound form of induction, and that strange and powerful force comes from the place it senses.”

”And… and if I want you to sense that existence as well, aside from passing it on at the moment of birth, the only way is dual cultivation, so that we can sense it together.”

After whispering this, Ling Qingzhu pressed her cool jade hand to her burning cheeks, then looked at Lin Langtian again. With a wave of her hand, a ray of light shot from her sleeve, turning into a small bamboo house that shimmered with radiance.

The bamboo house was clearly a spiritual implement. Other than providing shelter from wind and rain, however, it did not seem especially impressive.

Under the astonished gazes of countless experts below, Ling Qingzhu’s sleeve flicked, and thick white mist rolled out, shading heaven and earth and obscuring all sight.

Then she gently picked Lin Langtian up and carried him into the bamboo house, laying him carefully on the bed.

She watched him for a long time. Eventually, her stunningly beautiful face became suffused with an even deeper blush. Biting her silver teeth, she slowly stood, her jade hands trembling slightly as she undid her sash.

Her snow-white dress slipped quietly to the floor, and a perfect, flawless jade body was revealed in the bamboo house.

She trembled slightly, her beauty radiating a breathtaking allure.

”You were like this back then… now, this is your retribution.”

Ling Qingzhu looked at the unconscious man on the bed, his body radiating scorching heat. Thinking of everything that had happened in the past and how he had shielded her so gently earlier, she could not help but let out a soft laugh.

With a wave of her jade hand, darkness enveloped the bamboo house. Within that darkness, a scene of incomparable beauty slowly began to unfold…

In a haze, Lin Langtian’s consciousness seemed to drift endlessly. It was extremely vague, yet every now and then it brushed against a strange softness.

Within the blur, another gentle consciousness wrapped itself around him, holding him close like a baby.

Instinctively, Lin Langtian’s consciousness drew nearer, tightly entwining with that presence.

A faint fragrance seeped into his senses, tugging at his very soul.

His awareness floated between heaven and earth. In the distant void, an indistinct radiance appeared, like the primal chaos born when the world first opened.

As Lin Langtian’s consciousness observed it, the gentle presence wrapped him completely, like a slender jade hand softly pulling him toward that chaos.

Under that guidance, his consciousness suddenly swelled, towering like a pillar that reached the heavens, and in turn it tightly enveloped that soft awareness.

Faintly, there came the sound of a woman’s soft, delicate moan. His consciousness, like an octopus, seemed to pull her entirely into himself.

The two strands of consciousness became like fish and water, joyfully surging together into that mountain-like realm of chaos.

An indescribable, mysterious sense of induction quietly took shape, accompanied by an almost ethereal sensation of transcendence.

It felt as though they had stepped beyond some kind of world…

Time flowed slowly past. A feeling of extreme release and utter freedom surged like a tide through his consciousness.

At last, Lin Langtian’s blurred awareness slowly began to awaken…
