The activation time of the Illumination Treasure Array was no less than ten seconds. Just as Jing Zong's group of three appeared, a divine light shot out from the Illumination Treasure Array and instantly engulfed Lin Yun.
Whoosh!
In the eyes of Jing Zong and the other two, they saw Lin Yun's figure disappear with the divine light of the Illumination Formation.
"Elder Jing, should we continue chasing?" asked one of the high-ranking Wu Sheng.
Jing Zong waved his hand and said coldly, "There's no need to chase. He's already gone."
Since Jing Zong had already spoken, the others couldn't say anything else.
Jing Zong's expression was somewhat sinister. Back then, he had been ordered to spy on Lin Yun for several months, but he hadn't discovered Lin Yun's true identity.
A few months ago, when Tian Yin had revealed Lin Yun's true identity, Jing Zong had been scolded by the Holy Flame Lord for this matter, which made him feel extremely ashamed.
"Elder Jing, we can't let this kid live. He was even able to kill the blade shadow so easily," reminded another high-ranking Wu Sheng.
"No one has ever been able to survive unscathed after offending the Sacred Alliance. Let's report this to the Alliance Head." Jing Zong didn't continue to chase. With his realm, he could clearly sense that Lin Yun was no longer in this world.
Lin Yun had reappeared. The Yellow Emperor had already ordered that this matter couldn't be made public, so the outside world didn't know that Lin Yun had returned.
The current Zone of Chaos was as chaotic as it was in name.
Even the Zone of Chaos had been like this in the past. Ever since Lin Yun had taken over the three zones, the situation had improved.
However, a few months ago, with the destruction of Tu Shenzong, the control of the three zones had fallen into the hands of the Intelligence Division.
The Intelligence Division couldn't compare to Tu Shenzong. As a result, the citizens and wandering cultivators of the three zones suffered unspeakably.
The Intelligence Division found this to be a source of amusement. They even ordered the arrest of all those who were previously related to Tu Shenzong.
Mount Longhu, which used to be bustling with activity, was now almost empty. Everyone was trembling as they lived their days in fear.
On the night of Tu Shenzong's downfall, the higher-ups of Tu Shenzong had ordered a large amount of resources and manpower to be transferred.
However, such a small action did not escape the eyes of the intelligence faction. Most of the God Massacring Sect's resources had been plundered by the intelligence faction, and there weren't many people left in the sect that had been hiding.
"Lord Lin Yun will return. One day, we will be able to live like before."
This sentence had become the dream of almost every citizen of the three zones. However, they knew that the Demon God Lin Yun, who had created countless miracles, was most likely dead this time.
The Tu Shenzong headquarters in the East Sea had become a dead zone. Due to its remote location and the fact that the entrance had been destroyed by the Intelligence Division, only the people in charge of the intelligence department knew what had happened inside Tu Shenzong's headquarters.
The Tu Shenzong headquarters in the depths of the East Sea could be described as a complete mess.
A young man's eyes burned with rage. He clenched his fists tightly. Even with his temperament, he couldn't help but tremble in anger.
This young man was Lin Yun.
After using the Illumination Formation, he could see the current scene inside Tu Shenzong's headquarters.
Even though several months had passed, the smell of rotting corpses still filled the entire Tu Shenzong headquarters.
This nauseating smell of rotting corpses made Lin Yun even more clear-headed.
Lin Yun stood in the large plaza. Everything that had happened was still vivid in his mind.
This was the place where the Tu Shenzong soldiers trained. It had always been bustling with activity, but now, it was unusually deserted.
The soldiers who used to talk cheerfully and wittily had now turned into skeletons that littered every corner of the square.
Mottled bloodstains, rotting bones, and broken weapons — Lin Yun could imagine what had happened in Tu Shenzong just by closing his eyes.
With a great enemy in front of them, none of these skeletons chose to retreat. They fought to the last moment of their lives for what they believed in.
Lin Yun couldn't tell who these skeletons belonged to, but when he saw the rotting corpse nailed to the wall by a silver-white spear, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Even though this corpse had rotted to the point where its original appearance was unrecognizable, Lin Yun still knew who it belonged to.
"I'm the one who let you down, Seijen."
Lin Yun took in a deep breath. This corpse belonged to one of the upper echelons of Tu Shenzong — Seijen.
The rotting corpse was filled with dense wounds. There were even wounds that pierced through the chest, abdomen, shoulders, and many others that were fatal.
The battle that night was extremely intense. With his own strength, Seijen activated the forbidden art and led his death soldiers to fight against the enemy.
In the end, Seijen suffered a crushing defeat. His soldiers were massacred, and Seijen was nailed to the wall in an extremely humiliating manner by the enemy.
The enemy wasn't just humiliating Seijen. They were humiliating the entire Tu Shenzong.
"No matter who the enemy is, This Emperor will take revenge for all of you."
After lamenting for a long time, Lin Yun silently turned around. With a wave of his right hand, raging flames coiled around them.
The flames landed on every single corpse, including Seijen's.
"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
The fire burned the entire Tu Shenzong, devouring everything in its path.
In this fire, the old had passed away. The new Tu Shenzong would also be reborn with Lin Yun's return.
Lin Yun's return was destined to be the beginning of some changes.
However, in the Arctic Tundra, an intense battle was taking place amidst the endless wind and snow.
From afar, blood was everywhere in the white snow. Lin Ying and the rest were surrounded in a corner. Everyone had their backs against each other, and fatigue was written all over their faces.
Beneath their feet were several Wu Huang's corpses that belonged to the intelligence team. Naturally, the prolonged battle had also turned two of their comrades into corpses.
"How much longer can we last …" Yue Yue spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face was as pale as snow, and her aura was weak. The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda behind her was also becoming more and more faint.
To Yue Yue, using her Martial Soul's ability to boost everyone's strength for a prolonged period of time was also extremely draining.
On the other hand, Yun Ruoxi was also struggling to hold on. Even though the Sidhe Empress' Martial Soul's ability could be said to be equivalent to a perpetual motion machine, she and Yue Yue had become the enemy's public enemy.
The intelligence team's Elder Zhou had brought along three Peak Class 9 Wu Huang's, and they were extremely powerful.
With the three of them leading the way, Lin Ying and the rest were having a hard time defending against them.
If not for the fact that Zhang Wei's metallic body's defensive strength was equivalent to Wu Sheng's, and that he was able to block a fatal blow for them at the most critical moments, they would have died tragically in the snowstorm.
