“Little White, into the water!”
With that, Lin Yun plunged into the Silver Lake, and Little White followed closely behind.
“You little mongrel, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you’re dead!”
“Keep chasing!”
Prince Yi roared.
Immediately, the Tianqian royal clan members rushed into the water after them.
Inside the Silver Lake.
After entering the water, Lin Yun stored Little White in the Green Vine Gourd space.
In the waters of the Silver Lake, with the Frost Heart, Lin Yun was like a fish in its element.
This was one of the Frost Heart’s incredibly powerful abilities.
On land, this effect was hard to notice, and usually only its defensive capabilities were apparent.
But now, submerged in water, its full potential was unleashed.
Once in the water, Lin Yun’s speed surged dramatically.
Glancing back, he saw Prince Yi and his group had also entered the water, still pursuing.
But Lin Yun’s heart was now much more at ease, as his current speed far outstripped his pursuers.
This gave him complete confidence.
With a smile, Lin Yun shouted back, “Prince Yi, you might as well go home and sleep. You can’t catch me. The beating you took earlier? You took it for nothing. Who told you to be so weak, so pathetic?”
“Bastard! Bastard! That damned bastard!”
Hearing this, Prince Yi was practically exploding with rage.
“Speed up! Chase faster! We have to slaughter him!” Prince Yi roared hysterically.
“Prince Yi, this guy’s speed in the water is incredible. We… we’re getting left behind,” the bald elder said helplessly.
The distance between them and Lin Yun was clearly growing.
“Elder Liao, take this Water-Repelling Pearl and go after him!”
Prince Yi flipped his hand, producing a pearl and handing it to the bald elder.
Such items were rarely used, and Prince Yi only had one.
“Also, take this Heaven-level weapon and this Speed-Burst Divine Travel Pill. You must intercept him. If you can delay him even for a moment, we’ll catch up.”
As he spoke, Prince Yi handed over his own Heaven-level weapon to the bald elder.
“Yes!”
The bald elder swallowed the Water-Repelling Pearl and the Divine Travel Pill, took the Heaven-level weapon, and pushed his speed to the limit, chasing after Lin Yun.
Ahead.
“Hm? The token’s reacting!”
As Lin Yun fled at full speed, he suddenly felt a faint stir from the token.
He quickly focused on sensing it.
The token’s guidance reappeared.
And its location shocked Lin Yun.
“The token’s pointing to the lake bottom!” Lin Yun exclaimed.
But there was a problem. If he went to the token’s location at the lake bottom now and there was indeed a great opportunity or treasure, what if the Tianqian royal clan noticed?
After all, they were also in the lake. Any disturbance in the water could easily be detected by them.
“Master, someone’s catching up from behind,” Little White’s voice transmitted.
Lin Yun glanced back and saw the pursuing Tribulation Realm bald elder.
“Since he’s coming, I’ll give him a taste of his own medicine!” Lin Yun sneered coldly.
With that, Lin Yun stopped and turned around.
“Baldy, if you’re delivering yourself to death, don’t blame me!”
Lin Yun drew his Ziqiong Sword. At the same time, the Frost Heart covering his body flowed instantly, enveloping the sword as well.
This way, swinging the Ziqiong Sword in the water faced no resistance.
Shadow Sword Art, Sixth Form.
Heaven-Shaking Hand!
As his words fell, Lin Yun swung his sword fiercely at the bald elder, unleashing all his techniques.
“Arrogant fool, do you really think I’m a pushover?”
The bald elder’s Heaven-level sword blazed with light, his techniques erupting as he swung it fiercely to meet Lin Yun’s strike.
Whoosh!
Where his sword slashed, it roared through the water, causing the surrounding silver syrup to tremble.
But the water’s resistance steadily diminished the power of his strike.
Though the bald elder had consumed the Water-Repelling Pearl, making him immune to the water’s resistance, his sword could not avoid it.
Lin Yun’s Frost Heart, however, could.
Boom!
Their attacks clashed instantly.
At the moment of impact, the elder’s sword attack had lost at least thirty to forty percent of its initial power.
Lin Yun’s strike, unchanged in power, obliterated the elder’s attack with its terrifying force, the remaining energy pouring toward the bald elder like a flood.
“Pfft!”
The bald elder spat out a mouthful of blood, his body uncontrollably retreating through the water, the silver syrup swirling like waves in his wake.
“Your… your weapon isn’t affected by the water? How is that possible!”
The retreating bald elder’s eyes widened in shock.
At that moment, the Tianqian royal clan’s team, led by Prince Yi, was catching up from the distance.
“Master, they’re coming. Run!” Little White urged through transmission.
“I don’t think we need to run anymore. We can change our strategy,” Lin Yun said, a slight smile curling his lips.
After the recent clash, Lin Yun realized the Frost Heart gave him a massive advantage. In underwater combat, there was no need to flee!
The enemy’s strength was significantly weakened in the water, while Lin Yun could perform at full capacity. What was there to fear?
Even if things went south, he could burst into speed and escape, and they’d never catch him.
In the water, this was his domain!
The Frost Heart was truly a treasure of the Great Kun Clan.
“Master, you mean… fight back?” Little White asked, astonished.
“Exactly!” Lin Yun’s smile widened.
The bald elder had consumed the Water-Repelling Pearl, so he wasn’t affected, but his weapon attacks were still hindered by the water, reducing their power by thirty to forty percent.
The others, without the pearl, were even more affected, their strength diminished by far more than that!
This was Lin Yun’s confidence to fight back!
In no time, Prince Yi and his group arrived.
“Kid, you’ve finally stopped running!” Prince Yi glared at Lin Yun with venomous eyes.
“Run? Why would I run? I didn’t beat you enough earlier, and now I want another go,” Lin Yun said with a laugh.
Prince Yi’s face twitched, the fury in his eyes surging.
All his life, people had feared him, groveled before him. No one had ever dared to insult him repeatedly or claim they’d beat him. How could he not be enraged?
“Arrogant fool, since you’ve dared to stop, you’re dead!” Prince Yi’s eyes blazed with fury.
At that moment, the bald elder, recently repelled by Lin Yun, returned to Prince Yi’s side.
“Prince Yi, this guy’s combat strength in the water is completely unaffected. If we fight him, I’m afraid… it won’t be easy,” the bald elder said helplessly.
