“Boom!”
Another heaven-shaking explosion rang out. The golden bow erupted with immense power, blocking the fist beam. The forces within the golden bow and the fist beam collapsed into towering shockwaves and fluctuations.
However, Hong Yixun was still sent flying by the powerful shockwaves and fluctuations. His clothes tore in countless places. His long hair became dishevelled. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. He looked utterly wretched.
But fortunately, he was not severely injured. After being blasted dozens of li away, he stopped again.
“Oh?” Lin Xiao was slightly surprised. He had used force based on the opponent’s power. In his view, it should have been enough to blast him away.
Yet the power erupting from the golden bow in the opponent’s hand had roughly defended against it, surprising even him.
That golden bow could attack and defend. It was truly extraordinary.
He wondered if it was a unique technique of the Hong family.
At this moment, everyone was tongue-tied, unable to speak for a long time.
The number one genius under thirty among the eight states, Hong Yixun, had actually been blasted away in one move too?
That terrifying attack was not Mu Haoran’s full power?
Mu Haoran was actually this terrifying!
“Fifth-level Martial Emperor. He has actually broken through to fifth-level Martial Emperor realm!”
“He is still himself. Too strong.”
“He should be invincible below Martial Saint, right?” …
The people from Canglong Gate secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Xiao’s combat power was even more domineering than they had imagined.
This truly had the style of Long Tutian back then, or even stronger than Long Tutian in his youth.
The Yanzhou crowd was both shocked and delighted. A great monster had emerged from their Yanzhou, bringing glory to the state.
From that spear technique that day, it was clear Mu Haoran had not even used his weapon yet. If he did, he should be able to defeat Hong Yixun.
“Shall we continue?” At this moment, Lin Xiao’s voice rang out. He asked indifferently towards Hong Yixun opposite him.
“I concede!” Hong Yixun cupped his hands and retreated.
He was not Xiao Zihao. His loss was not too unsightly, and he could afford to lose.
Most importantly, he truly could not beat the opponent. Forcing another fight would only result in real injury.
“Fifth-level Martial Emperor realm. This fellow has grown stronger again?” Even Nan Mu Ling among the Shengtian Gate crowd could not help but feel surprised.
The last time she saw Lin Xiao, he was only at third-level Martial Emperor realm. In just ten days, he had broken through to fifth-level Martial Emperor?
This speed was too fast?
Even she could not help but be shocked.
“This fellow is too strong!” Feng Yuan also said.
The Moxu Sect leader beside him was also amazed. This fellow’s strength was bottomless to him. No wonder Feng Yuan felt inferior.
At this age with this combat power, compared to him, Feng Yuan was indeed far behind.
However, unlike Feng Yuan, he did not know Lin Xiao’s true identity.
The people from the Ji family and Shengtian Gate looked extremely ugly. The stronger Mu Haoran was, the harder it would be to kill him without sending Martial Saints. They could not avenge that grudge.
Xiao Zihao and the Xiao family crowd were also speechless. The opponent was not just stronger than Xiao Zihao.
Even Hong Yixun was inferior. Did that not mean Xiao Zihao was far behind?
“Now, is there anyone else who wants to come up for a fight?” At this moment, Lin Xiao’s gaze swept over the youths from the eight states. On the spot, no one dared respond.
One person challenging all geniuses from the eight states, with no one daring to reply. Truly high-spirited and domineering without peer. This scene would be recorded in the genius history of each state.
“Since there is no one, then farewell!” Lin Xiao said. He turned to leave, not glancing at Xiao Zihao and the others again.
The other states dared not speak. Joke. Even the strongest genius under thirty had lost. Who else would dare go up?
It could not be the strongest genius under twenty, right?
Going up would just be asking for a beating. The strongest under twenty was not on the same level as Mu Haoran.
“So domineering. Too domineering!”
“Wherever this fellow goes, he will be the most dazzling!”
The Canglong Gate crowd thought secretly, all giving Lin Xiao a thumbs up in their hearts.
This was still with Lin Xiao not revealing his identity and not using his absolute strongest attacks. If Lin Xiao used all his trump cards, how strong would he be?
Even they could hardly imagine.
In reality, some people knew that among the genius youths around thirty, there were even stronger figures.
However, those figures would not appear.
For most people, Mu Haoran was the invincible genius under thirty, the number one genius among the eight states.
But for a minority, that was not the case.
In their view, among the eight states, there were even stronger geniuses hidden.
Of course, Lin Xiao also knew that the eight states had even more powerful geniuses in hiding. However, even if those geniuses jumped out, he would fear none.
Since no one else fought, he had no need to stay.
Today, sweeping the Xiao family’s face was enough.
“Slash!”
However, just as Lin Xiao was about to leave, a terrifying divine sense suddenly surged into Lin Xiao’s mind. As soon as the divine sense entered, Lin Xiao felt his entire consciousness about to blur. In an instant, it was about to fuse with that divine sense.
“Slave control!” Veins bulged on Lin Xiao’s forehead. He fully concentrated his mind, gathering his consciousness to urge the spirit energy in his mind.
“Slash!”
And at this moment, the spirit energy in Lin Xiao’s mind, upon contact with that divine sense, involuntarily boiled up. It erupted with rolling energy, repelling that divine sense.
That was three fused spirit energies. Without a mysterious fusion spirit energy technique like the Eternal Heavenly Spirit Art, even high-grade spirit controllers could hardly refine them, let alone fuse them.
Even Lin Xiao, who knew the Eternal Heavenly Spirit Art, had refined them one by one, then spent a long time harmonising before finally fusing them.
The opponent wanting to fuse divine sense into his mind was fundamentally impossible.
The spirit energy had a natural repulsion. It instantly incinerated the opponent’s divine sense.
Lin Xiao’s nearly blurred consciousness finally cleared.
All this happened in an instant. The crowd present could not see it.
However, in his mind, Lin Xiao had experienced countless perils.
He had nearly been enslaved, nearly become someone’s slave, losing his freedom forever.
Cold sweat had already appeared on Lin Xiao’s face and back.
At the same time, in the distance.
In the shadows, a grey-robed elder’s face revealed extreme surprise. He thought secretly, “He actually destroyed my divine sense and blocked my slave control technique?”
“Whoosh!” At this moment, two figures suddenly flew towards this side. One was a woman beautiful as if from a painting, shaking the mortal world.
The other was an expressionless elder without a trace of humanity. The two rapidly approached him.
“People from Spirit Pool Island?” The grey-robed elder was shocked. With a surge of spirit force, his entire figure vanished from the spot in an instant, as if teleporting.
