Inside the Lin clan, many of its disciples were preparing to deal with Chu Kuangren’s arrival, and all of them had grim looks on their faces.

After all, there have been too many rumors about Chu Kuangren recently.

Everyone already knew full well how strong he was.

“Do you think we can win?” asked one of the Lin clan disciples to another beside him.

That person was the Lin clan’s sky-pride.

He grinned and said confidently, “Of course, we’ll win. Have you forgotten that we belong to the Lin clan, an ancient Immortal clan with deep foundations and a background superior to the other immortal orthodoxies? No matter how powerful Chu Kuangren is, he’s still a man limited in strength.”

“How can someone like him possibly face off against a whole clan?”

Another Lin clan disciple joined the talk and added, “That’s right. Do you think the Lin clan has millions of disciples for show? With our warships, Immortal Weapons, formation techniques, combat puppets, and other assets, even a Heavenly Immortal wouldn’t stand a chance against us. Chu Kuangren is only an Earthen Immortal, so how can he possibly win against us?”

Most of the Lin clan disciples were quite confident about the battle. After all, they were proud of their clan.

In their eyes, the Lin clan was undoubtedly the greatest. Ever since ancient times, no one had been able to stand against the Lin clan at all.

Some disciples who were apprehensive about the battle were soon influenced by the confidence and calmness of others.

“I must be overthinking it. There is nothing to fear about Chu Kuangren alone.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Let’s wait and see if Chu Kuangren loses then.”

Meanwhile, most of the orthodoxies had already gathered outside the Lin clan.

They were people from the Yokai Hall, Holy Judgement Sect, Great Yuan Divine Dynasty, and many other immortal orthodoxies or ancient immortal orthodoxies.

Ten cultivators in golden armor, emanating a dense yokai qi, were standing in a corner.

They were the Golden Crow Guardians of the Yokai Hall.

“Commander, do you think Chu Kuangren will win this time?” one of the Golden Crow Guardians asked.

The one referred to as Commander was a man shrouded in golden light and emanating a frightening aura.

That man was one of the four Golden Crow Guardian Commanders, the Golden Wing Commander!

He possessed the bloodline of the Gold-winged Great Peng, an ancient divine beast. Although his bloodline was not pure, it was still enough to gain him a high position in the Yokai Hall.

Among the four commanders, he was the strongest.

“Chu Kuangren’s strength is mysterious and unfathomable. There’s no point in making speculations like this before the battle has even begun,” said the Golden Wing Commander.

There were two Golden Crow Guardians with powerful auras standing beside him too.

Those two were the remaining two commanders.

They were the White-Hawk Commander and Night-Sparrow Commander respectively. Besides Commander Moya, who was killed by Chu Kuangren back then, the remaining three Commanders had arrived at the Lin clan. They even brought along many Golden Crow Guardians with them.

There was no way they were just here to spectate.

However, the crowd did not interfere.

After the battle at the Yin Underworld Universe, everyone knew that the last Fated One was in the Yokai Hall. For the Fated One to become the Heavenly Champion, they would have to get rid of Chu Kuangren, who was currently their greatest obstacle.

The Yokai Hall had long been at odds with Chu Kuangren. On top of the currently ongoing Battle of the Fated Ones, both sides were nothing short of enemies.

“It looks like these guys are here to deal with Chu Kuangren.”

“Are they planning to attack when Chu Kuangren and the Lin clan are heavily injured? Hm. It seems like a great plan they have there.”

Everyone secretly thought to themselves.

Soon after, two days had passed, but the Lin clan remained cautioned and on high alert.

However, Chu Kuangren was still nowhere to be found.

“Why is Chu Kuangren still not here yet? I’ve been waiting for so long now. The heat is killing me,” some cultivators said unhappily.

The Lin clan was situated on volcanic terrain, so the surrounding temperature was so high that the air was dry. For cultivators who specialized in Fire-based Dao, the place was a wonderland. However, the other cultivators would find the heat unbearable.

“Let’s wait a while.”

“Chu Kuangren can’t possibly be bailing out on this, right?”

“No way. With how arrogant he is, there’s no way he would do something that’ll make him the laughingstock of others. He’ll surely come.”

“This heat around here is really intense, huh?”

“Wait a second. What is that sound?”

Suddenly, someone noticed something.

Sounds of swishing and swooshing sounded from a distance away.

“It sounds like water.”

“You’re kidding. How can there possibly be water here?”

“It really is water.”

Someone started to feel some dampness in the air.

As the swishing and swooshing became louder, the moisture in the air also became denser.

“Quick, look over there!” someone exclaimed.

With that, everyone looked into the distance.

They were greeted by the sight of gigantic body of water gushing towards them through the air, and a young man in white robes was mobilizing the water at the front.

It was Chu Kuangren!

Everyone was stunned and speechless.

“Did the guy bring a whole ocean with him?”

“F*ck me!”

“This is truly surprising.”

The swishing and swooshing sound soon arrived above the Lin clan. Everyone could even see the various aquatic plants and animals inside that hovering body of river water.

The Lin clan disciples gulped in shock. None of them had expected something like that to happen.

“I hereby present this gift as a token of my visit. I hope the Lin clan likes it!” Chu Kuangren’s voice reverberated through the sky.

In the next instant, the vast body of water immediately fell from the sky!

The target was none other than the Lin clan!

“Activate the great defensive formation!” Lin Zhaotian roared.

Beams of flaming light appeared around the Lin clan, and a huge flaming shield soon enveloped the whole Lin clan like a gigantic bowl turned upside-down.

The vast body of river water poured down mercilessly, and as it landed on the bowl-like flame protecting shield, sounds of explosions erupted.

The river water and the flames collided, producing vast amounts of steam that covered a radius of ten thousand kilometers of land.

The vast amount of river water dispersed and flowed down the entire volcanic terrain. The originally scorching hot air was soon filled with moisture, making it now hot and humid at the same time.

The spectating cultivators felt as if they were in a sauna.

The vast river water poured out endlessly like a gargantuan waterfall, slamming onto the Lin clan’s great defensive formation.

The sight made all the spectating cultivators dumbfounded.

The river water was still pouring down from the sky!

“Ha! There’s no need to be shy. Why? Is the Lin clan unsatisfied with such a wonderful gift?” Chu Kuangren laughed out loud.

Then, he put out a sword hand sign while channeling his Immortal’s Core energy. He injected his sword intent into the never-ending river water, turning it into a gigantic sword made out of water!

The water sword came crashing down with utmost might.

Together, the river water and the gigantic water sword came crashing down from above!

Boom!

Following a crash, the Lin clan’s great defensive formation immediately caved in. On top of the violent sword intent within the vast river water slamming into the formation, cracks began to appear.

“This is bad!” Lin Zhaotian’s expression changed.

Boom!

The Lin clan’s defensive formation crumbled with a bang!

With that, the vast river water and sword intent poured in, flooding the whole Lin clan and destroying most of the buildings inside. Frightened, the cultivators quickly channeled their cultivation to defend themselves against that overwhelming might.

The river water gushed across the land. Most of the cultivators inside the water held on frantically until the impacting force gradually dispersed.

The Lin clan was now in ruins, with most of their buildings destroyed and most of their cultivators either injured or dead.

The ten-thousand-kilometer-long river was something they could defend themselves against but not the sword intent inside the water!

Those who were spectating the battle gulped in fear, and they could not find any words to describe what they just witnessed.

With a large amount of moisture filling the air, most of the volcanoes in the area had crumbled, turning into mounds of wet soil. There were puddles all over the place, and larger ones began to form into lakes.

Chu Kuangren arrived bringing a whole river’s worth of water with him, and using the river as a sword, he instantly turned all of the volcanic terrains surrounding the Lin clan into wetlands!

He had turned the volcanic terrain into wetlands!
