The ancient sword box had been trembling even before Lin Yun stepped into the ruin, linking the ruin to the Iris Sword Saint’s inheritance.

Who was the Iris Sword Saint? Even in that era that was filled with monstrous geniuses, he stood like a dazzling star. This was the reason why his inheritance was the most popular in the Azure Sun Realm.

If someone could obtain a hair of it, they would benefit from it for a lifetime. But no one had discovered the core inheritance despite many years passing.

When he killed Yan Tianrui, he knew that the Iris Sword Saint refined the ancient sword box using a treasure born from the world. Aside from his extraordinary sword technique, the ancient sword box was also why he could overlook the world.

Although the ancient sword box trembled for a short time, it was enough to point Lin Yun in the right direction.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Lin Yun immediately hastened his pace for the ruin.

When he arrived at the ruin an hour later, the atmosphere was filled with a woeful aura. Looking at the silhouettes in the ruin, Lin Yun knew that he was late.

When he officially stepped into the ruin, Lin Yun could sense how massive the ruin was. But the majority of the region was undiscovered, simply waiting for people to uncover its secrets.

The Sword Firmament Pavilion, Demonic Moon Villa, and overlord forces of the Azure Sun County had already arrived, which naturally included the Wang Clan.

Lin Yun's anxiety calmed down when he stepped into the ruin and the desolate era made him feel curious and respectful.

“Well, there’s no rush to head for the Iris Sword Saint’s inheritance now…” said Lin Yun.

Lin Yun slowed his pace, strolled through the ruin, and admired the scenery. Whenever he passed through a tattered pavilion, he would go in and have a look.

However, anything valuable had already been emptied since he was still at the border of the ruins. Lin Yun did not go in for the treasures. Instead, he was going in to grasp how majestic this sect was in the past.

“This should be the Alchemy Chamber,” observed Lin Yun.

He saw an old cauldron that was covered in dust in a tattered pavilion. The cauldron had nine dragons carved on it, but the interior was too damaged and the spiritual energy had already dissipated. It was only left with historical value.

There was an incomplete painting hung on the wall, portraying a boy picking herbs. Lin Yun was stunned when he looked at the boy’s hand sign. It was similar to the Spiritual Convergence Art that he was familiar with.

But he was sure that the boy’s Spiritual Convergence Art was more profound.

Rustle!

Lin Yun waved his hand to summon a gentle breeze that swept the dust away. When the entire cauldron appeared before Lin Yun, it looked majestic. At the same time, powerful spiritual music resounded from the cauldron.

Looking at the cauldron, Lin Yun was stunned.

Boom!

In the next moment, the cauldron suddenly shattered. A dust cloud rolled out and covered Lin Yun from head to toe.

Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!

A series of footsteps approached. Several Xiantian Realm cultivators rushed over when they heard the commotion. When they looked at Lin Yun covered in dust, they began laughing.

“Young man, there’s nothing good in this place,” chuckled a middle-aged cultivator.

“Everything valuable in the border has been cleaned out a few hundred years ago. How could there be anything valuable here waiting for us?”

“So it’s just a tattered cauldron. The things here might seem complete, but they’ll shatter with a touch.”

The Xiantian Realm cultivators spoke out and explained the situation to Lin Yun.

Wiping the dust off his face, Lin Yun smiled embarrassedly, “I never thought about that and ate a few mouthfuls of dust carelessly.”

“Hahaha!”

All of them began laughing when they heard Lin Yun mocking himself. Lin Yun was also feeling helpless since he accidentally became a laughingstock.

“Brother Lin!” Everyone was shocked when they got a clear look at Lin Yun’s appearance after he cleaned himself up.

“So it’s Brother Lin Yun! I apologize for the rudeness previously!”

“Sir Lin, why are you so late? I saw the overlord forces of Azure Sun County and the Sword Firmament Pavilion rush to the core region.”

“I heard that Sir Lin obtained a profound core a few days ago and even killed a sixth orifice cultivator. Your strength is simply at a level that we can only look up to!”

Two months ago, everyone knew about Lin Yun when the Blood Cloud Sect issued a Blood Bounty for his head. In recent days, the stories of how Lin Yun obtained the Eighth Grade Lava Core and Dragoncloud Fruit had spread far and wide in the Azure Sun County.

Furthermore, his battle with Mei Zihua and Xue Tu was an eye-opening experience for them. Only the strong were respected in the Azure Sun County, regardless of their birth or origin. Therefore, Lin Yun’s strength had won their respect.

“You guys are too polite.” Lin Yun scratched his head, feeling embarrassed at the praise. He never imagined that he would be so famous.

“Then we won’t disturb Sir Lin admiring the dust here. Goodbye.” The middle-aged cultivator cupped his hands together and bid his farewell.

Admire dust? Lin Yun showed an embarrassed smile. Well, that was true since this place only had dust. On the other hand, these people were rather humorous.

Lin Yun also wanted to leave after them. After all, he couldn’t possibly stay here to admire dust…

“Hmm?” Lin Yun saw something protruding out of the hill of dust. He held his foot and turned around, picking up the protruding object. It was a bamboo strip.

Whoosh!

“Weird… Even the cauldron had turned into dust with time, but this bamboo strip is fine…” Lin Yun tested the toughness of the bamboo strip and wiped the dust away from the surface.

There were four ancient words on it. Ancient words weren’t the same as modern words. So Lin Yun couldn’t recognize the first word. But he could roughly recognize the second word, which should be either moon or eye. He couldn’t recognize the third word, but the fourth word, which was fire, was easy to recognize.

Shaking his head, Lin Yun couldn’t figure anything out with the lack of information. While he pondered, he infused a trace of spiritual energy into the bamboo strip.

“H-heavy!”

The bamboo strip immediately became heavy after he infused his spiritual energy into it. Even with his fifty thousand catty of strength, Lin Yun was having a tough time holding it.

When Lin Yun lost control of it in the next second, the bamboo strip fell onto the ground.

Boom!

When the bamboo strip fell to the ground, in just a split second, the entire pavilion trembled and collapsed. The tremor spread out to ten miles in radius, causing the pavilions within the radius to collapse.

Plop!

Lin Yun climbed out from the mess with the bamboo strip that was once again covered in dust. He immediately left the place. After all, it would be embarrassing if someone saw him in this state again.

He was fortunate that this place was located on the border. Although it had caused an enormous commotion, it did not attract too many people over.

After all, this was a common scene at the ruin. After Lin Yun traveled far away, he stopped and examined the bamboo strip. The bamboo strip had gone through the river of time and it looked mysterious.

“What kind of treasure is this? Nevermind, I’ll just use this as a hidden weapon since I can’t figure it out. Heh, I’m sure ordinary people won’t be able to defend against it.” Lin Yun muttered to himself and put it into his interspatial pouch.

However, he was shocked when he realized that couldn’t store it away.

That’s weird…could this be a spatial treasure? In the end, Lin Yun could only carry it with him. He knew that this item wasn’t simple, but he would have to wait til later to research it more.

“It’s time to head to the Iris Sword Saint…”

Lin Yun was no longer in the mood to stroll around after eating dust twice. After calibrating the correct direction, he moved out.

Lin Yun had unlocked his legs orifice, so he traveled over three hundred meters with a gentle leap. If needed, he could use his tough and soft technique where the soft energy would help him stay in the air.

If one observed Lin Yun from afar, it would look like he was flying through the ruin.

The surrounding scenery flashed through before his eyes. The majestic palaces looked woeful after experiencing the river of time. After all, this sect had been invincible before.

As Lin Yun rushed to the core region, he could see the number of cultivators increasing. He could even see fights taking place, but he did not stop. Four hours later, the ancient sword box on his back began to tremble once more.

Raising his head, Lin Yun saw majestic mountains ten miles away. The mountains were like sharp blades that pierced into the horizon. An ancient aura permeated the atmosphere that made Lin Yun’s eyes sting.

“What sharp aura!” exclaimed Lin Yun.

The mountains were where the Iris Sword Saint’s inheritance resides. With a glow flickering through his eyes, Lin Yun roared, “Let’s go!”

He flew forth with great agility and rushed over.

Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!

When he got close, Lin Yun could sense unfriendly gazes directed at him. They were all cultivators who had gathered from different places. Aside from their companions, they were cautious with everyone else.

Lin Yun could sense that the atmosphere here was colder than the border. He was alone, but no one dared to provoke him. After all, he had proven himself when he fought with Mei Zihua and Xue Tu.

Lin Yun was someone who even dared to fight with the Blood Cloud Sect and Golden Flame Sect, so no one dared to provoke him if they weren’t interfered with.

This should be the place…but where’s the real entrance that caused the sword box to tremble? Lin Yun pondered and swept his glance around. He hoped to find some clues here.
