Around the blood-clothed man’s body, there were even densely-packed deity silhouettes suspended, like a scene like the gods resonating together, emitting an eye-catching light.
“Boss Lin Yue.”Mu Jiji said excitedly.
“Senior Brother Lin Yue actually came out of the altar, could it be that he just refined the divine blood?”At the sight of Lin Yue’s figure, the young sword cultivators of the Two Element Sect were all excited beyond measure.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint and Ning Xuandao glanced at each other and both let out a sigh of relief as well.
“Wow!”
Suddenly, Lin Yue, who was on the altar, rushed up and turned into a pillar of blood-coloured light, rushing straight towards the sky, quickly disappearing into the clouds.
In the next moment, the pillar of blood-coloured light, at an even faster speed, rushed straight down.
Only characters at the level of Half-Saint Ancestors could see that at the top of the blood-coloured light pillar, Lin Yue was holding the Void Sword and stabbing straight down with a sword.
On the Void Sword, the sword qi that emanated from it formed a storm that lifted the sword cultivators that were closer, all of them flying out.
“What a powerful sword intent.”
Shao Lin’s face became a little ugly, his hands pinched out sword techniques, using the Imperial Sword Technique, he struck the Vermillion Bird Sword out, and his mouth roared lowly, “The fourth level of the Sword Two realm, Yin and Yang .Intersect .Fusion.”
On the Vermillion Bird Sword, blazing flames surged out, forming a Taiji pattern thirty feet in diameter, with two gigantic Vermillion Birds spinning and flying in the middle of the pattern.
Thousands and thousands of crimson sword-shaped sword qi rushed out from the Taiji pattern like a wave of sword rain, and together with the Vermillion Bird Swords, they flew upwards into the sky.
“Rumble.”
A deafening roar came out from the centre of the White Stone Square.
The chaotic sword qi, transformed into a layer of three-length high giant waves, surged out from the inside out, rushing in all directions.
After the sword qi dissipated, the crowd looked towards the centre of the square. Instead, they saw that the Void Sword had pierced through Shao Lin’s heart, pinning him to the ground, scarlet blood, continuously gushing out from his heart.
Lin Yue, however, stood aside and grabbed the hilt of the Void Sword with a rather elegant movement, lifting it upwards, the tip of the sword detaching itself from Shao Lin’s body. Only, the snow-white body of the Void Sword was a bright red.
The surroundings were silent, and it was even hard to hear breathing.
Even the Saint level existences were quite surprised.
“Lin Yue …… actually nailed Shao Lin to death with just one sword …… I’m not hallucinating, am I?”A young sword cultivator, rubbed his eyes and once again looked towards the centre of the square.
“Shao Lin is one of the Nine Great Realm Sons, he has swallowed the Divine Spring, but he can’t even block Lin Yue’s sword?”
“Lin Yue’s cultivation is only the eighth change of fish and dragon, how could he be so strong? It couldn’t be that he used some kind of treasure and resorted to external forces to kill Shao Lin?”
The crowd couldn’t accept it no matter what, a cultivator of the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation was actually able to kill a Realm Son.
The nine Realm Sons had all swallowed Divine Springs, and their strength far exceeded that of cultivators of their peers, so couldn’t they still be invincible?
Many people were speculating whether Lin Yue had borrowed the power of a certain Saint? After all, Lin Yue had previously borrowed the spiritual power of the Sacred Book Talented Lady to defeat the Snake Two of the Moon Worshipping Demon Sect in one fell swoop.
Of course, all the saints present could see that Lin Yue had killed Shao Lin with a single sword by virtue of his own strength, without using any external force.
It was this point that made the saints quite alarmed.
If this son becomes a saint, I am afraid that all the saints in the world will become his companions. He was the white moon in the middle of the sky, and the saints were just the stars that surrounded the moon.
Gai Tianjiao took the lead and laughed out loud, “Serves him right, truly serves him right, a traitor deserves this.”
I don’t know how many cultivators of the Two Element Sect had always wanted to clean up Shao Lin and clear the door, it was a pity that Shao Lin’s cultivation was too strong, every time the cultivators who went to deal with him were killed by him instead.
Lin Yue’s sword was just too domineering, killing Shao Lin crisply, causing all the disciples of the Two Yi Sect to be quite exhilarated.
The eyes of the Xuan Gui Sword Saint narrowed, also revealing a look of admiration, with his eyesight, he was naturally able to tell that Zhang Ruochen’s Sword Dao realm had greatly improved again.
“This brat, he should have already cultivated Sword 2 to the great circle, and even, incorporated some of the intent of Sword 3, it’s really not simple.”The Xuan Gui Sword Saint’s heart secretly sighed.
Behind the Xuan Gui Sword Saint were, respectively, the first disciple “Qing Xiao Sage”, the second disciple “Zhu Hongtao”, the third disciple “Wan Ke”, the fourth disciple “Feng Han”The fifth disciple, the Spirit Pivot Half-Saint, and the seventh disciple, the Yellow Smoke Dust.
The body of the Spirit Pivot Half-Saint had grown a little taller, twelve inches tall, still wearing a red coat, sitting on top of Zhu Hongtao’s right shoulder, staring with wide eyes, saying, “A cultivator of the Fish Dragon realm, his attainments above the Dao of the Sword are even more superior than mine, this is a true wizard.”
Zhu Hongtao said gruffly, “If Old Six were still alive, it would be enough to compete with him.”
Fourth disciple Feng Han’s face was pale and looked rather sickly, he coughed twice and smiled grimly, “Even if sixth disciple is still alive, it is absolutely impossible to be Lin Yue’s opponent. Lin Yue such a wizard, 10,000 years is rare to come out of one, can’t you see that even Boundary Zi can’t block one of his swords? Nowadays, in this great world, there are a lot of heroes, even the Nine Great Realm Sons can’t be invincible.”
Since this time back, the tone of the fourth senior brother’s speech had become eerie, and in his ears, Zhu Hongtao felt quite uncomfortable.
It was only that the fourth senior brother was the one with the highest talent amongst the few of their senior brothers, and he had also suffered a very serious injury this time when he went out to practice.
Zhu Hongtao only thought that he was the one whose injuries hadn’t healed yet, and thus didn’t put too much weight on it.
Nowadays, the top priority was the life and death duel between Master Teacher and the Nine Spectres Sword Saint, as for other things, it would not be too late to wait until after the Sword Discussion Conference to investigate.
The disciples of the Two Element Sect were, naturally, quite excited, but the cultivators of the Four Elephant Sect were all furious.
In the camp of the Four Elephant Sect, an old Taoist with a grain of vermilion sand growing on his brow walked out and said in a deep and cold voice, “You Two Yi Sect is really shameless, Lin Yue must have borrowed external power to defeat Shao Lin.”
This old Taoist, known as Xuan Long Half Saint, was already one hundred and sixty years old, fifty years ago he had cultivated to the Half Saint realm, and was one of Shao Lin’s senior brothers.
“Unbridled.”
Ning Xuandao’s expression was serious, and a vast holy qi surged out from his body, saying, “Whether Lin Yue relied on his own strength or external forces, all the Saints present are clear-eyed and have their own notarial judgement. You’re just a mere Half Saint, how dare you slander the Two Yi Sect?”
Suffering from the impact of Ning Xuandao’s aura, the Xuanlong Half-Saint gave birth to the illusion that it was as if the heavens had collapsed, and a massive pressure acted upon his body, pressuring him to the point where he was somewhat breathless.
Immediately, the Xuanlong Half-Saint took three steps backward to dissolve the pressure on his body, and added, ”Ning Xuandao, don’t think that just because your cultivation is profound, this seat is afraid of you. The Saints present, I’m afraid that they wouldn’t believe that a cultivator of the Eighth Transformation of the Fish Dragon would be able to kill a Boundary Son with his own power. Right?”
Outside the Sword Pavilion, in a whirlwind, a low murmur resounded.
A cold colour appeared in the eyes of the Buried Moon Sword Saint as he said, “Xuanlong Half-Saint, this Saint advises you that when you speak, you’d better talk about evidence and never speak without evidence. If, today, you can’t produce evidence to prove that Lin Yue has borrowed external forces, just based on your charge of slandering the Two Element Sect, this Saint won’t be able to spare you.”
“Is Lord Buried Moon Sword Saint threatening me?”
Facing the Buried Moon Sword Saint, the Xuanlong Half-Saint actually didn’t show any fear and sneered, “Lin Yue’s Void Sword, being a supreme Saint Artifact, must be quite subtle. If, for example, the Saint of the Two Yi Sect, poured his own power into the Void Sword in advance. During the Sword Discussion Conference, when Lin Yue then exerts that force, we might not be able to see the cracks.”
The words of the Xuanlong Half-Saint actually did provoke some dissent. After all, the vast majority of cultivators present had never seen a Supreme Sacred Artifact before, so naturally, they were not clear about the wonders of a Supreme Sacred Artifact.
Perhaps it really was as the Xuan Long Half-Saint had said, the Void Sword was indeed capable of storing the power of a Saint.
For a super sect like the Two Element Sect, reputation was quite important, even if all the saints present were clear that Lin Yue had used his own power to defeat Shao Lin.
However, as long as there was a group of cultivators who deliberately spread rumours, when the time came, the Two Element Sect would still be discredited, and would be subject to the suspicion and ridicule of all the cultivators in the world.
Naturally, there was no shortage of such people present, who called Zhang Ruochen’s display of strength too strong, suppressing the glory and radiance of the Boundary Sect’s son, and there was no telling how many people were jealous of him.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, stared towards the Xuanlong Half-Saint as he calmly said, “Senior, since you doubt the strength of the late generation, why don’t we have a battle?”
The Xuanlong Half-Saint revealed an eagle-like smile and said, “How dare you fight this seat?”
The crowd present, too, had never expected that Lin Yue would actually dare to take the initiative to challenge the Xuan Long Half-Saint, would he be too unselfconscious?
Zhang Ruochen put away the Void Sword and nodded, saying, “Didn’t Senior claim that Senior had borrowed the power of a certain Saint in the Void Sword to defeat Shao Lin? Since this is the case, senior will not use the Void Sword and formally challenge senior.”
Not using the Void Sword?
The cultivators present were in an uproar, and many felt that Lin Yue was simply even more arrogant than Shao Lin.
The Xuanlong Half-Saint had long since reached the realm of the Second Stage Half-Saint, his strength was unfathomable, wouldn’t it be a cultivator of the Eighth Transformation of the Fish Dragon that could compete with him.
The Buried Moon Sword Saint felt that Lin Yue was just too presumptuous and was about to stop him, saying, “Lin Yue, why don’t you back off and leave this matter to the clan to handle.”
Zhang Ruochen bowed to the Burial Moon Sword Saint and said, “Sword Saint, if I don’t use my own strength to defeat this person today, I’m afraid that the Two Eyes Sect will be vilified by many people in the future.”
The reason why Zhang Ruochen wanted to fight against the Xuanlong Half-Saint was, in fact, because he also wanted to try out what level of strength he had reached without using the Void Sword.
Knowing that he had refined a total of four drops of divine blood in the altar, it was precisely because he wanted to make use of a battle to meld the power that had surged within his body.
Xuan Long Half-Saint was afraid that Lin Yue would regret it, so he hastily agreed and laughed, ”Good! Such a character is a true young genius. Lin Yue, if you are able to block this seat for ten moves without using the Void Sword, this seat will believe that you possess the strength to defeat Shao Lin. And, this seat apologises to you and the Two Yi Sect for what I said earlier.”
As things stood, there was no way to continue stopping this duel.
The Buried Moon Sword Saint transmitted his voice to Zhang Ruochen, saying, “Be careful, there is something wrong with this Xuanlong Half-Saint, the way he behaved today, it’s very abnormal, and there’s a high possibility that he will kill you.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced in the direction of the Buried Moon Sword Saint and nodded gently.
