No one expected Lin Qi to actually return so suddenly.

The immortals attacking the Weapon Spirit clan didn’t take Lin Qi seriously, treating him like a nobody.

Even when holding a spirit weapon, a mortal’s power was limited.

It was simply impossible to threaten them, the immortals.

A spirit sword fell beside them just as they were about to proceed with suppressing the Weapon Spirit clan.

There were more than a hundred spirit swords appearing densely all around.

And in a flash of light, they actually disappeared.

Lin Qi stepped on a spirit sword and landed before them.

“Elders.” He then turned around and bowed to the elders of the Weapon Spirit clan.

Whirl.

Only then did he turn back to look at those immortals behind him and said calmly, “My name is Lin Qi. I’m a member of the Weapon Spirit clan. There are countless clansmen who have died over a hundred years as a result of treating my clan as a sin. Even if it was punishment, it is now over. I want to completely abolish the name of the sin clan so I hope you all do not stop me.”

Everyone was stunned as they looked at Lin Qi.

Especially those immortals on the opposite side.

At first, they were dumbfounded for a moment, and then they let out a roar of laughter.

“Lin Qi, right, a sinner wants to get rid of the sin clan’s identity. Simply delusional, as long as we are here, the Weapon Spirit clan will never be able to get rid of the identity of the sin clan.”

The middle-aged man on the opposite side of the immortal laughed coldly under his breath.

Facing this middle-aged man immortal, Lin Qi slightly shook his head and said, “I’ve heard of a saying outside, ‘killing a chicken to make an example of a monkey. I hope killing you will make the others talk to me properly.”

Not waiting for the middle-aged man immortal to speak, Lin Qi waved his arm with a calm voice, “With the Great Seven Sword Formation… I can kill the immortals.”

In a flash, hundreds of spirit swords appeared at this moment again.

Spirit swords appeared around the formation, with strange inscriptions.

In a flash, thousands of spirit swords with a terrifying aura flashed around the middle-aged immortal.

Seeing this, the middle-aged immortal’s face immediately changed.

With a wave of his palm, the immortal took out a round bead talisman, wanting to protect himself.

But, just as he took out the talisman, a terrifying aura filled with destruction enveloped his whole body.

Almost instantly, this immortal’s figure was annihilated.

After that, the body of the middle-aged immortal was nowhere to be found.

Witnessing this, there was silence all around.

…

(In front of The Light Beam of Resurrection)

At this moment, there was silence.

Almost everyone stared at the light beam of resurrection in amazement.

After all, this scene made them feel a little unbelievable.

Lin Qi was just a mortal.

But with the help of those spirit swords, he actually killed an immortal.

They had never seen anything like this before.

If every mortal could do this, then why become a cultivator in the future rather than refine this kind of technique?

…

“Lord Lin Feng, did you see this? Lin Qi, with countless spirit swords alone, was actually able to kill an immortal.”

“That’s right, Lord Lin Feng, think quickly. Can you recover some relevant memories? If you do, making a breakthrough to the Eternal realm isn’t unachievable.”

That bunch of evil cultivators, at this moment, looked at Lin Feng with excited faces.

However, Lin Feng’s eyes flashed with a bit of confusion.

He hadn’t awakened any relevant memories at all.

But looking at those expectant gazes around, he could only grit his teeth and say, “These memories, I will awaken sooner or later, and when the time comes, I can naturally break through to the Eternal Realm.”

While Lin Feng was speaking, Lin Yan, who was within the light beam of resurrection, was already a bit jaw-dropped.

Because, just a moment ago, all the details about this Great Seven Sword Formation suddenly appeared in his mind.

“No way. Lin Qi’s memory appeared in my mind… It can’t be that I am Lin Qi.” Lin Yan was puzzled.

These memories that appeared now were all memory fragments that originated from those treasures.

Lin Yan ignored them before.

Looking at it now, he actually looked a bit confused.

But immediately, he quickly cast aside this thought from his mind.

“If I were Lin Qi, it simply does not make sense.” Shaking his head and muttering to himself, Lin Yan continued to raise his head to look at the screen before him.

…

(Within the light beam of resurrection)

Everyone was shocked when Lin Qi killed the middle-aged man.

Under the intimidation of Lin Qi, these immortals were forced to admit that from now on, the identity of the sinners and sin clan on the Lingxuan Continent would no longer exist.

The descendants of the Weapon Spirit clan would no longer be deprived of the possibility of cultivation, and the word sin wouldn’t be engraved on their foreheads.

For several days, the entire Weapon Spirit clan celebrated being free from the identity of the sin clan.

When the ordinary clansmen were celebrating, Lin Qi turned to the elders and proposed an idea that shocked them all.

“Lin Qi, are you saying that you want to build a treasure to block that Trace of Heaven in the sky?”

Lin Qi looked up at the many elders before him and nodded slightly. “Yes, Elder, in the past few years, I have been to many places on the Lingxuan Continent and met numerous people. Compared to the cultivators who are oppressing us, this Trace of Heaven above is the real threat.”

“As long as this Trace of Heaven wasn’t obstructed, the entire Lingxuan Continent would be destroyed.”

Those elders of the Weapon Spirit clan glanced at each other.

A determined look appeared in their eyes and one said, “Lin Qi, from today onwards, you are the Patriarch of the Weapon Spirit clan. Do what you want. We will be there for you.”

In that volcanic furnace, Lin Qi plunged headlong with the support of these elders, and he never came out.

There was only a constant stream of refining materials that were sent into the volcanic furnace.

It got to the point that even the other cultivators around gradually learned about what the Weapon Spirit clan was currently doing.

So, more cultivators began to take the initiative to send valuable refining materials to the Weapon Spirit clan.

On the Lingxuan Continent, native cultivators dreamed of closing the Traces of Heaven in the sky.

An unusual reunion took place between them.

Lin Qi, who was working full-time on building a treasure to block the Trace of Heaven, was also elected as their leader.

Their leader was called … The Heavenly Emperor.

…

(On the Lingxuan continent)

“Was Lin Qi the first generation of Heavenly Emperors?”

“Though legends about Heavenly Emperors are no longer rare, it seems that the first generation of Heavenly Emperors had a very short life span. Lin Qi is only a mortal. His life expectancy is not long.”

“The first generation of the Heavenly Emperor is actually only a mortal. No one would believe this if it were said.”

There were countless people who stared at the image within the beam of light and felt somewhat astonished.

Many deep-rooted concepts in their minds were overturned by it.

The name Heavenly Emperor was also worshipped on the Lingxuan continent, although it was less prominent than the ancient gods.

There was no way anyone would have imagined the first Heavenly Emperor was actually a mortal in the Middle Ages. Furthermore, he was a member of the Sin clan at the time.

They stared in amazement at the light beam of resurrection.

As Lin Qi built a treasure to seal the Trace of Heaven in the sky, everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.

It was the Bronze Gate.
