Rip!
Two slashing strikes turned into streaks of light, carrying astonishing power, charging straight at Lin Yun from the front.
“Clearly you have the advantage in realm, yet you still gang up on me,” Lin Yun said, swiftly drawing his treasured sword. A surge of inner force burst forth, while he simultaneously harnessed the surrounding heaven and earth energy to bolster himself, a skill all Heavenly Realm cultivators possessed.
Facing the attacks of two Second Level Heavenly Realm cultivators, Lin Yun dared not be careless.
“Qingxia Sword Technique!”
With his inner force transforming into dragon energy, Lin Yun’s sword sliced through the air, forming a massive sword arc that met the incoming attacks.
His divine sense, mid-stage Immortal Divine Body strength, and Dragon Emperor Bone all erupted, boosting the power of this strike to its peak.
Since stepping into the Heavenly Realm, Lin Yun hadn’t fought yet.
Now was the perfect chance to test the feeling of the Heavenly Realm and the power of the Qingxia Sword Technique.
Boom!
With a deafening clash, the massive sword arc collided with the duo’s slashes, unleashing a wild storm of wind and shaking the heavens.
Both sides were pushed back a short distance by the impact.
The shockwave hit Lin Yun, fierce but causing no real harm.
“Hm? He’s unharmed?” Lie Wuyan said, his face full of astonishment.
Wu Gu couldn’t help but exclaim, “This guy’s got some skill.”
Lin Yun’s ability to block their combined frontal assault with a single strike was enough to shock them.
In their view, even with a True Saint Artifact, Lin Yun was still just a First Level Heavenly Realm cultivator. Taking him down with their combined attack should have been easy.
“If that’s the case, we can’t hold back any longer. Use that move!” Lie Wuyan said.
Wu Gu nodded.
The two pointed forward in unison.
Thousand Moon Slash!
A massive white blade formed in mid-air, hovering above.
They poured their inner force into it, causing the blade to grow larger and more solid before it roared forth, carrying earth-shaking might, slashing fiercely at Lin Yun.
This attack, jointly formed by the two, would make even an ordinary Second Level Heavenly Realm cultivator pale.
But Lin Yun felt no fear, only excitement.
“Good!”
Cangxuan Secret Scripture, Fourth Layer!
Lin Yun’s internal meridians reversed, a terrifying wave surging from within, boosting his aura to new heights.
“Qingxia Sword Technique, Eighth Form, Moonlit Form!”
As his powerful aura roared forth, Lin Yun stepped into the void, moving like lightning. His sword glowed with radiant light, slashing at the massive white blade with astonishing speed.
The giant white blade was torn apart by Lin Yun’s strike.
“What!?”
Lie Wuyan and Wu Gu were stunned, their eyes filled with shock.
Was this First Level Heavenly Realm cultivator too strong?
After tearing through the blade, Lin Yun’s figure passed through it, diving straight toward the two.
“With this level of skill, you thought you could ambush me? You’re delusional!”
Lin Yun’s tone was sharp as he charged, his sword slashing fiercely at the duo, ready to engage in close combat.
“Damn it!”
“Quick, team up against him!”
“Use every means, hold nothing back!”
Lie Wuyan roared in shock.
Both Lie Wuyan and Wu Gu unleashed their realm auras, their bodies glowing as they met Lin Yun’s attack head-on.
Boom!
With a loud clash, their weapons collided.
Fully unleashed, the two barely blocked Lin Yun’s attack.
Lin Yun’s sword turned into a streak of light, striking at them again.
Boom boom boom!
Fierce collisions erupted continuously as the duo, working in tandem, unleashed all their techniques to resist Lin Yun.
“Your strength isn’t bad,” Lin Yun said with a smirk. “But I’m not at my limit yet!”
Cangxuan Secret Scripture, Fifth Layer!
As his meridians reversed again, Lin Yun’s potential was fully unleashed, his aura surging once more.
The Fifth Layer of the Cangxuan Secret Scripture, once activated, put immense strain on his meridians, causing discomfort even for Lin Yun.
Normally, the first four layers were enough.
But when necessary, Lin Yun could push to the fifth.
As the Fifth Layer activated, his sword trembled, glowing with light.
The True Saint Artifact’s power fully erupted, and with an unstoppable, terrifying force, Lin Yun slashed at the two.
Lie Wuyan and Wu Gu gritted their teeth, charging forward together, swinging their blades with full force.
Boom!
The explosive collision shook the space, sending shockwaves like tidal waves.
Lin Yun’s strike was unstoppable, sending the two flying back, blood spraying from their mouths.
Even their full-powered joint defense couldn’t withstand such a terrifying attack.
As they were thrown back, their teamwork crumbled.
“Die!”
Lin Yun didn’t pause, charging forward swiftly, slashing at Lie Wuyan.
“No!!”
Lie Wuyan, still reeling, widened his eyes and roared hysterically. He raised his warblade horizontally, gripping the handle with one hand and the blade with the other, trying to block Lin Yun’s swift strike.
Boom!
Lin Yun’s sword struck, its contained power erupting like a volcano.
“Pfft!”
Lie Wuyan spat blood again, his arms completely numb, his insides churning, and his warblade sent flying.
“It’s over!”
Lin Yun thrust his sword, Lie Wuyan’s eyes widening as the blade reflected in his pupils, rapidly enlarging, aimed at his head.
Just as the sword’s tip reached Lie Wuyan’s forehead, it suddenly stopped.
Lie Wuyan was trembling with fear; if Lin Yun hadn’t stopped, the sword would have pierced his skull.
“Speak! Why did you come to ambush me!” Lin Yun demanded, pointing his sword at him.
“We were wrong! Young hero, please spare me!” Lie Wuyan’s voice trembled as he begged.
This situation was completely beyond Lie Wuyan’s expectations.
Initially, he thought that even if they couldn’t defeat Lin Yun, he and Wu Gu could easily escape as Second Level Heavenly Realm cultivators.
“You didn’t answer my question!”
Pfft!
Lin Yun’s arm moved, slicing across Lie Wuyan’s forehead, leaving a gash that exposed the white bone beneath.
“Next time you dodge the question, I’ll pierce your skull!” Lin Yun glared down at him.
“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!”
“We came to steal your True Saint Artifact,” Lie Wuyan answered.
“We’ve never met. How did you know I have a True Saint Artifact?” Lin Yun asked coldly.
Lin Yun thought back carefully. He had only publicly used his True Saint Artifact during the Heavenly Fire Trial, and never again since.
