Chapter 1678: Fake, It’s All Fake

Truth be told, An Lin’s fate with suns was quite complicated.

In the past, in order to obtain his yang-type cultivation technique, he had kissed a mini sun—Yi Li. The relieved yet terrifying emotions that he had experienced that day were still fresh in his mind. After all, he had almost died kissing her! Now, however, his mission had become even more insane. His mission was far more difficult than simply kissing a sun. No, he actually had to eat an entire sun this time!

Eat me if you love me?

To hell with that!

Sect Leader An Lin’s presence guaranteed that the Four Nine Immortal Sect wouldn’t be able to see long periods of calm and quiet.

Thousands of disciples witnessed the sun rising above the sect.

They were all filled with shock, and, without exception, they all thought one thing: Is Sect Leader An Lin doing something shocking again?!

The shocking news of their sect leader becoming a jade person was yet to pass, and the disciples were just starting to come to their senses. However, before they could even turn their attention back to cultivation, another earth-shattering event occurred before their eyes. How were they supposed to cultivate properly?

The disciples all grumbled in their minds. However, they couldn’t help but put their tasks aside and run toward the direction of the forming sun.

“Ah! As expected! It’s Sect Leader An Lin and Elder Xiao Hong who are stirring up trouble!”

“Good Lord! Why is Elder Xiao Hong summoning such a terrifying fireball?”

“This isn’t a fireball… I can feel the purest forms of light and heat emanating from it. This definitely isn’t a fireball… it possesses the power of the Sun!”

“I think we should retreat further back. The gigantic sun in the sky is seriously intimidating…”

“We’ve got stand-in Sect Leader Xiaolan protecting us. What is there to be afraid of?”

“Say, what is Sect Leader An Lin trying to do this time? Could it be that he’s giving Elder Xiao Hong tips on cultivation?”

The disciples of Four Nine Immortal Sect were all engaged in spirited discussions. As they conversed, their gazes continually turned toward An Lin. Moreover, they all felt an indescribable eagerness. It was clear that they wanted to witness something miraculous.

At this moment, a graceful, white-clothed figure had already dashed into mid-air.

Under the watchful gaze of everyone, he leaped head-on toward the monstrous sun in the sky. He was like a moth flying toward fire; he was like a warrior fearlessly forging toward a seemingly undefeatable opponent.

Immediately afterward, the “warrior” opened his mouth and bit down toward the insanely gigantic sun!

A boundless suction power instantly swirled out from his mouth.

Enormous volumes of scorching flames started to pour into An Lin’s gaping wide mouth!

Long ago, there was Si Cong who gobbled up a hotdog[1]; And now, there was An Lin who was gobbling up a sun!

An Lin’s mouth opened wider and wider, and the volume of the sun became smaller and smaller.

However, the internal energy of the sun started seeping outward, and the sun turned from a fiery gold color into a blinding white color. The devastating temperature of the sun rose to a peak, and even the surrounding void started to distort and combust. Weaker disciples were already unable to look at the sun directly, as the light that it emitted was far too bright and piercing. If they gazed at it, it would cause them to go blind!

There was no doubt that the temperature of the sun had also risen to a horrendous level!

An Lin’s clothes burst into flames, clearly unable to withstand the fiery nature of the sun.

Some female disciples opened their eyes wide as they stared at An Lin. In order to witness Sect Leader An Lin in all his glory, they were willing to risk being blinded by the blazing sun.

To their disappointment, however, Xu Xiaolan immediately covered An Lin in a holy flame robe and prevented him from being fully exposed.

An Lin’s skin became crimson red and scalding hot as he wolfed down the sun. Moreover, his body started to swell up slightly, and it seemed as if he was almost about to explode due to the devastating heat of the sun.

However, he was already of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage, and he was much more powerful than before. His body of the War God was also close to invincible. Thus, for An Lin, the power of the sun was still bearable!

After a short while, An Lin finished consuming the original flavor sun that Xiao Hong had summoned for him.

“Burp!”

A small fire dragon shot out of the male’s mouth as he burped loudly.

Everyone present had fallen deathly silent.

The disciples were all stupefied as they stared at the scene before them.

“He swallowed it… Sect Leader An Lin really swallowed it!”

“Holy Mother of God… That was a sun…”

“So impressive! The scene of Sect Leader An Lin engulfing a sun was so captivating.”

An Lin felt extremely hot, almost as if his body was about to explode. However, he had finally managed to endure through the difficulties and swallow the sun.

He hurriedly retrieved a white robe from his storage ring and covered himself up. Only then did he walk through the void and slowly descend back onto the ground.

There’s no notification from the system…

“Xiao Hong, was your sun a fake?” There was a look of disappointment on An Lin’s face.

“Fake? Master, please don’t slander me!” Xiao Hong fumed angrily. “I praise the sun. I love the sun. The sun is my everything. The sun materialized here at my beckoning; how could it be fake?!”

An Lin rolled his eyes. “Fine, fine, fine,” he said unenthusiastically, “your sun was real.”

Xiao Hong became even more furious. “Master, your attitude is a display of extreme disrespect toward my sun!”

An Lin pursed his lips in exasperation. “What do you want me to do then?”

“Sing praise to the sun with me,” Xiao Hong replied sweetly. “Sing with me one hundred times in order to express your remorse!”

An Lin: “…”

An Lin immediately walked away. Sing that type of embarrassing song one hundred times? No way in hell!

So be it if he was able to complete his system mission. However, the reality was that he hadn’t been able to complete the system mission. For what reason did he have to sing such a stupid song?

The system mission for breaking through to the Return to Void Final Stage remained the same as before. In other words, the sun summoned by Xiao Hong was indeed a fake. Or perhaps it wasn’t real enough, thus it didn’t receive the system’s recognition.

As a result, he naturally had to seek out a higher-tier sun.

Speaking of a higher-tier sun, he naturally thought of a sun created by a God of Creation. Suns created by Gods of Creation were definitely real enough. After all, they would be formed from the realm essence of the Gods of Creation’s worlds. However, the might of a realm essence sun was formidable, and even Dao Integration Stage cultivators would die if they tried to swallow one.

However, the Return to Void Stage An Lin wasn’t put off by this fact.

Of course, this was all dependent on Tina, the Goddess of Creation, agreeing to help him out.

“Little Na, I’ll need to rely on you now.” An Lin had already given up on Xiao Hong. He spoke in a soft and gentle voice as he looked at the little fairy before him affectionately.

Tina nodded cutely. “No problem,” she replied in a crisp and pleasant voice. “However, you might be immediately surrounded and attacked by five Heavenly Gods upon entering my Small World. We need to deal with them first…”

“Oh, that’s right! I almost forgot about them!” An Lin clapped his hands in realization.

Tina pursed her lips. “Giant An Lin, you need to nourish your brain…”

Xu Xiaolan shuffled up beside them. “How are they doing right now?” she asked curiously.

“So-so. They can’t leave my world, probably because they’re afraid of receiving backlash from the Heavenly Dao. They don’t dare to cause trouble in my Divine Mirror World either. Right now, they’re running all over the place in an attempt to find flaws and loopholes in my world. Would you believe it, they truly did discover a few weak points in my Divine Mirror World. However, it still wasn’t enough for them to escape. Afterward, I immediately patched up those flaws…” Tina couldn’t help but chuckle as she explained this.

An Lin was astonished. “They’re automated flaw-detecting bots! They’re divine helpers sent by the heavens!”

“That’s right.” Tina smiled. “The Divine Mirror World has become increasingly perfect these past few days. It’s all thanks to the hard work of those five Heavenly Gods!”

“Our recent enemies have all been so adorable.” Dongfang Zhuangshi sighed with emotion. “First, they gift us their true intent of the divine dao. Now, they’re helping you detect all the flaws in your world…”
