Lin Yun’s relentless assault left both the Martial God and Lord Feiying Jin below stunned and speechless.
Lin Yun had only used the sixth form of the Feiying Swordsmanship, yet he had managed to overwhelm Ge Hongtu, who was wielding the seventh form?
One must know that the seventh form of the Feiying Swordsmanship was an advanced technique. Its power represented a massive leap, far surpassing the sixth form by a wide margin.
“His divine sense is at the ninth tier of Primordial Return level, and his physical body has probably reached the Saint Realm. This fellow…” Shock flickered in Lord Feiying Jin’s eyes.
He knew very well how difficult it was to reach such levels in divine sense and physical body. For a cultivator to achieve this in even one of these aspects was already extraordinary.
For someone to excel in both divine sense and physical body to this extent was what truly astonished people.
“No wonder Brother Beichen was so confident!” The Martial God also exclaimed in amazement.
“However, Ge Hongtu has not yet unleashed his full strength. Whether he can defeat Ge Hongtu remains uncertain.” Lord Feiying Jin gazed at the sky.
In the air.
After Lin Yun struck Ge Hongtu back a great distance with another sword, he halted his pursuit.
At this point, Ge Hongtu was breathing heavily, clearly under immense pressure.
“I think the outcome is already clear.” Lin Yun said to Ge Hongtu.
Lin Yun’s divine sense and physical body realm were both two major realms ahead of his. Combined with the enhancement the Tree of Origin provided to his inner energy, the advantage was overwhelming!
Hearing this, Ge Hongtu’s expression turned ashen.
“Arrogant fellow. Do you truly believe you have won?”
“Feiying Swordsmanship, eighth level, Three Suns Slash!”
Unwilling to accept defeat, Ge Hongtu surged forward once more. His treasure sword instantly released brilliant golden light, whipping up fierce winds as it slashed towards Lin Yun.
“The power of the eighth form, Three Suns Slash, is this intense?” Even Lin Yun was surprised by the might of this move.
Having cultivated the Feiying Sword Art to the seventh level, Lin Yun knew exactly how much the power increased from the seventh to the eighth form.
This strike arrived before Lin Yun in an instant.
“Unfortunately, it is still not enough against me!”
“Feiying Swordsmanship, Swift Thunder!”
Lin Yun’s arm was instantly covered in dragon scales, granting another surge of power. His treasure sword shot forth like lightning, clashing with the dazzling golden sword light.
When the two swords met, their energies surged towards each other like tidal waves.
Ge Hongtu’s expression changed drastically once more. He was forced back by this terrifying force!
Even with Lin Yun unleashing the Swift Thunder form, augmented by the Divine Dragon Claw and Dragon Emperor Bone, he still crushed Ge Hongtu.
Though Ge Hongtu led in swordsmanship, Lin Yun compensated, surpassed, and overwhelmed him through other aspects.
In front of the great hall.
“He has actually mastered the seventh level, Swift Thunder?” Ripples of emotion surged again in Lord Feiying Jin’s eyes.
The seventh level, Swift Thunder, was part of the advanced section of the Feiying Swordsmanship and extremely difficult to master. Disciples like the Martial God and Ge Hongtu had only succeeded with Lord Feiying Jin’s personal guidance.
For Lin Yun to grasp this form proved his exceptional talent in swordsmanship, enough to make Lord Feiying Jin view him differently.
“It is over!”
Lin Yun pressed his attack, his treasure sword flashing like lightning as it enveloped Ge Hongtu at astonishing speed.
“Damn it!”
“You forced me to this!”
“Feiying Swordsmanship, ninth level, Nine-Nine Return to One!”
Ge Hongtu’s treasure sword trembled violently. Countless sword shadows instantly condensed around him, finally merging into one. Carrying horrifying power, it slashed towards the incoming Lin Yun!
Boom!
The two sword shadows collided and clashed, shattering the surrounding space and tearing open cracks. Terrifying fluctuations swept in all directions.
With this move, Ge Hongtu finally managed to hold Lin Yun back.
“I did not expect your swordsmanship to be this strong.” Lin Yun looked at Ge Hongtu in shock.
Lin Yun had only cultivated the Feiying Swordsmanship to the seventh level and, no matter how hard he tried, could not achieve the eighth. Yet Ge Hongtu’s swordsmanship had reached such a profound level.
Most cultivators specialised in one aspect. Ge Hongtu had undoubtedly focused on the path of swordsmanship. With the ninth level of the Feiying Swordsmanship, he was indeed among the elite in the Harmony Dao Realm.
Worthy of being Lord Feiying Jin’s chief disciple.
Ge Hongtu sneered coldly. “You are indeed extraordinary, but do you truly think you can defeat me? At my full power, today you can at best draw with me. Completely defeating me is impossible!”
“You do not think that was my full strength, do you? That was merely a warm-up.” Lin Yun’s lips curved into a slight smile.
