The Lin family members’ faces were also not looking good.
“Young Master Lin Yun is too reckless.”
“Yes, the Lin family has already lost enough face today. Him going up to fight a Third-tier Fusion Realm cultivator, this is just inviting ridicule.”
Many in the Lin family began to mutter.
“He wants to seek death, what can be done? If he gets killed on the arena by the opponent, that is his own fault!” The eldest wife said viciously.
Yan Shi was extremely tense.
After all, her son’s realm was far too low compared to the opponent. Of course, she feared Lin Yun might come to harm.
Even the City Lord seated in the distance revealed a look of surprise.
“What on earth is the Lin family doing? Sending a Second-tier Void Piercing Realm up there?” The City Lord murmured.
Second-tier Void Piercing Realm against Third-tier Fusion Realm, this was something unheard of. It was simply courting death!
…
On the arena.
“Second-tier Void Piercing Realm?”
“Haha, what a joke, truly the biggest joke! You, a Second-level Void Piercing Realm, dare to come on stage to challenge me?”
After sensing Lin Yun’s realm aura, Wei Wei was first stunned, then burst into hearty laughter.
He was Third-tier Fusion Realm after all!
A full four realms apart, including a small realm difference. For him to win, would it not be effortless?
“Boy, with such a huge realm gap between us, if I accidentally kill you, do not blame me. Blades and swords have no mercy!”
“Take this!”
Wei Wei’s war blade instantly turned into a streak of light, charging towards Lin Yun.
Wei Wei had not even unleashed many techniques, merely deploying the power of his realm.
Because in his view, with such a vast realm gap, he did not need many techniques at all. Relying purely on realm superiority would crush him!
All eyes in the crowd fixed on the arena.
In everyone’s view, Wei Wei could crush Lin Yun with one move and claim victory.
Facing the attacking Wei Wei, Lin Yun shook his head.
“Your kind of attack is simply too crude.”
With those words, Lin Yun’s short sword floated out lightly with one strike.
The opponent’s attack, in Lin Yun’s eyes, was ridiculously slow, full of flaws.
Clang!
The blade and sword collided, but the scene everyone imagined, of Lin Yun spitting blood and flying backwards, did not occur.
Wei Wei only felt as if his attack had struck a sponge, as if he could not exert force, as if his strength had nowhere to go.
This was completely overcoming hardness with softness, the technique of deflecting a thousand pounds with four ounces.
The moment they clashed, Lin Yun pinpointed the opponent’s flaw. His treasured sword flowed like water, wrapping around and instantly striking towards Wei Wei’s front, at a terrifyingly fast speed!
“What?!”
Wei Wei’s face changed drastically as he quickly retreated and defended with his hand.
Bang bang bang!
Lin Yun’s short sword darted out repeatedly, appearing light and floating yet astonishingly fast, elusive like a ghost!
Wei Wei dared not hold back any longer and unleashed all his various techniques.
Yet even so, Lin Yun’s sword was too fast and too unpredictable. This left Wei Wei completely passive, only able to defend continuously with no chance to attack!
The technique Lin Yun was employing now was the Lingyun Sword Art.
But it was vastly different from the Lingyun Sword he had wielded when he first arrived at the ancestral land.
Heart reaches, speed reaches.
This speed was not driven faster by inner energy, but by the heart.
After receiving guidance from Senior Dong Jian in sword practice last time, Lin Yun could now wield the Lingyun Sword Art at a whole new level!
“So… so fast a sword!”
“A mere Second-tier Void Piercing Realm can wield swordsmanship to such a terrifying degree?”
Everyone on site was stunned. A fellow under a hundred years old could actually wield swordsmanship to such an extent?
At the distant seat of the City Lord.
“This swordsmanship… this swordsmanship is so formidable! It is actually… actually so profound and unfathomable that even I cannot grasp it? This…” The City Lord gazed at the arena in shock.
The nearby guards, upon hearing this, were even more astonished.
The City Lord was a dignified Saint Realm cultivator after all!
And he happened to cultivate swordsmanship as well.
For even the City Lord to be unable to fathom a Void Piercing Realm’s swordsmanship? What did this imply!
“Look, it is the fusion of essences!”
A cry of alarm rang out again.
The City Lord focused his gaze and saw that within Lin Yun’s swordsmanship, seven essences had already been fused simultaneously.
“What?! He has fused seven essences?” The City Lord shot to his feet in shock.
At the Saint Realm level, essences provided little aid, for cultivators of that realm had all mastered multiple essences.
But on a Void Piercing Realm cultivator, it was outrageously exaggerated!
The most outrageous part was not just employing seven essences, but fusing them all together!
On the arena.
After Lin Yun fused the essences, the power surged even higher. At least at the Void Piercing Realm and Fusion Realm levels, the boost from essence fusion was terrifying!
Coupled with Lin Yun’s unfathomable swordsmanship, it continuously breached Wei Wei’s defences, leaving wounds on his body.
At this point, Wei Wei was covered in injuries and blood, his condition worsening. Facing Lin Yun’s profound swordsmanship, he was completely unable to parry.
“I am done playing with you.”
Whoosh!
The short sword finally flicked Wei Wei’s weapon flying, its blade resting on Wei Wei’s neck.
