Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City
Chapter 266 - 265: Red Knight

Chapter 266: Chapter 265: Red Knight

For years, since Transshipment Island was discovered and Freedom City was established, no one has ever dared to directly challenge the Red Knight, and no one has ever managed to reduce the Freedom Cathedral to ruins.

But today, someone finally did.

Not only did he do this, but he arrogantly summoned the Red Knight to come out and face death right outside the ruins of the Freedom Cathedral!

What kind of spirit is this?

It’s the spirit of "I am the greatest under the heavens."

In over four hundred years, there have been many such people, yet, in the end, every single one of them was sent to the Skinning Cliffs of Transshipment Island, no exceptions.

And today, such an event has happened again.

The people of Freedom Island had long been stirred up.

"Is he declaring war on the Western Church? Who doesn’t know that the Freedom Cathedral is the property of the Western Church?"

"It seems the Huaxia people are getting bolder and bolder. Does he really think that the protective forces of Freedom City are just high-tech?"

"The Red Knight, though no one has seen him, but being able to hold the position of City Lord of Freedom City, his strength must be extraordinary. I heard it’s been a hundred years since anyone dared to challenge him."

"That’s right, everyone who has challenged Freedom City in the past has been sent to the Skinning Cliffs, none were a match for the Red Knight."

"Looks like we’re in for a good show today."

The rain in the sky, unbeknownst to all, had already ceased, and countless people were converging to the cathedral’s ruins at the center of Freedom City.

"Not coming out? Playing hide-and-seek like a turtle?"

Up in the sky, Lin Hao stood upon the clouds, laughing coldly from within the clouds, followed by a slap down.

"Boom!"

A palm descended from the sky, and with one strike, a corner of the cathedral, a building that had previously partially survived, was left with a gaping handprint from the rooftop down, even the ground bore a colossal hand imprint.

There were only a few buildings left intact within the Freedom Cathedral, and at this moment, people within the cathedral were still fleeing, none wanted to retaliate against Lin Hao standing above the clouds, each of them wishing they had been born with an extra pair of legs to escape faster.

"Still not coming out?"

The Red Knight remained nowhere to be seen, hiding who knows where.

But Lin Hao did not care.

If you’re not coming out, I’ll just keep attacking until you do!

With a cold laugh, the Ancient Swallowing Heaven Technique began to run wildly, and the dense clouds in the sky, following the strengthening of the aura emanating from him, swirled into a formation around Lin Hao, resembling the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram.

"Boom!"

As Lin Hao pressed both hands towards the ground.

The countless dense clouds in the sky seemed to be instantly compressed, emitting thunderous roars, and then with that press from Lin Hao, they enveloped and crushed down on the cathedral.

Heaven collapses!

The press was a magnificent sight to see.

The endless dense clouds, compressed by Lin Hao to be the size of Freedom City, smashed down in an instant, the heavens falling and the earth sinking!

"Boom!"

This time, the roar was even louder; the dense clouds smashed down, and the Freedom Cathedral was completely destroyed, the ground quivering, the city thundering.

The remaining structures of the cathedral, now, were completely demolished.

Where the Freedom Cathedral once stood, at this moment, a mountainous mass of dense clouds occupied the space, appearing dreamlike and beautiful, yet horrifying.

"My God! Did you see that? That Huaxia Cultivator, he can actually control the clouds in the sky!"

"The sky has fallen, there’s actually someone in the world with such control... Oh no, look over there in the city!"

As the crowd was astounded by Lin Hao’s strike, suddenly a strange sound entered their ears.

Then, the ground shook as if it were the end of days.

Once the mountainous clouds hit the ground, they finally melted!

Clouds, which are water; in the sky, they form clouds, but once they hit the ground?

Upon landing, the thick clouds quickly dispersed and collapsed.

The water, mixed with countless chunks of ice and icicles, surged in all directions as if a catastrophe-level flood had erupted within the city!

"Take cover quick!"

In the blink of an eye, most of Freedom City was submerged by the floodwaters, countless homes toppled by the water carrying ice blocks.

Fortunately, nearly all the people in the city were cultivators, and since the flood was a brief event with no aftermath as the clouds dissipated, there weren’t many casualties.

Even so, any cultivator who wasn’t on a high-rise was drenched like a drowned rat, standing on the streets that now resembled ruins, dumbly stunned.

Above in the sky, Lin Hao couldn’t care less about the life and death of these foreign cultivators. Transshipment Island was their property, with Huaxia’s interests being edged out. If it was flooded, so be it.

He just didn’t expect that the Red Knight could bear so much and hadn’t shown any sign of turning up yet.

"Not coming out, huh?"

Lin Hao certainly wouldn’t let things rest without making a big scene today.

Looking down from the clouds, he spotted a dark, undamaged underground entrance amidst the ruins of Freedom Cathedral, from which a faint light was emanating.

Without a doubt, this must be the Red Knight’s hiding place.

"If you won’t come out from hiding like a turtle, then I’ll drag you out!"

With that, Lin Hao descended like a rainbow from the sky, plunging straight towards the cathedral’s underground entrance.

"Look, that cultivator from Huaxia is charging down!"

"The Red Knight hasn’t appeared so far. Could something have happened?"

"Maybe, but it’s quite a sight to witness the destruction of Freedom Cathedral."

As Lin Hao moved towards the cathedral ruins, numerous foreign rangers in Freedom City wanted to follow the excitement.

But of course, their delivery was nowhere near as fast as Lin Hao’s.

When only a few people had gathered around the ruins, Lin Hao had already reached the entrance.

A holy aura emanated from inside the entrance, incredibly potent.

Lin Hao glanced inside, as if in the depths of the tunnel, a silhouette was walking towards the exit, seemingly holding something sacred and glowing.

A treasure?

At that moment, Lin Hao didn’t give it much thought and, in a flash, surged into the entrance.

Just as he entered, suddenly, brilliant light shone from within the tunnel, dazzling white rays engulfing Lin Hao instantly.

"You are courting death, and I shall punish you in God’s stead!"

"Boom!"

Just as Freedom City had settled, a proud roar echoed once more, the earth quaking as if mountains were crumbling.

That blinding white light shot out of the tunnel, soaring towards the heavens!

"What is this..."

All inhabitants of Freedom City were dumbfounded, looking up at the divine light piercing the sky, feeling an almost instinctive urge to worship.

"Oh, ignorant cultivator of Huaxia, your atrocities will face the judgment of God, and today, I shall be your judge."

From within the tunnel, amidst a myriad of lights, an old man in a red robe, with red hair and eyebrows, holding a Divine Staff as if a Heavenly God had descended, slowly emerged bathed in the Holy Light.

"God decrees that those who destroy a cathedral must be condemned. Today, there’s a spot for you on the Cliff of Flaying!"

The red-robed elder stopped at the entrance, radiating a holy power, gently shaking the Divine Staff in hand.

The multitude of lights from the Divine Staff instantly dispersed, and once more, the world returned to normal.

But what of Lin Hao?

All around, everyone was astounded.

The red-robed elder had appeared at the entrance, but Lin Hao was nowhere to be seen.

Didn’t Lin Hao charge into the tunnel?

Where did he disappear to?
