“Pfff!”
Jiang Yi didn’t die as expected, but his innards were injured by the impact, and it wasn’t some light injuries. His eyes were flickering non-stop as he formed the Thunder Fire Divine Shield again while thinking of a method.
The Thunder Fire was ineffective against Lu Lin while the Sky Turning Cauldron wasn’t able to smash him to death. These were his two strongest attacks, and apart from them, he only had the soul swords!
The problem was that the soul swords would only be most effective if it was a sneak attack. Otherwise, it might be destroyed easily. He had never had his soul swords destroyed and didn’t know if his main soul spirit would suffer any harm if destroyed.
“Let me try!”
Lu Lin shot out tens of thousands of golden blade light while he immediately started to prepare the ‘Sky-Devouring Wind Dragon’ dao pattern. Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and prepared to try everything. If this carried on, he would definitely be crushed to death.
Heaven Evasion?
Impossible. Qian Wanguan, Feng Luan, Jiang Xiaonu, and the others were still in the city. If he was to escape with the Heaven Evasion, he would immediately expose his identity. It was hard to say if Lu Lin, Lei Qiyan, and the others would try to capture them; but he didn’t dare to risk it.
Swish! Swish!
His body was roaming quickly as he dodged the golden blade light attacks while he shot out tens of thousands of fire dragons with his Fire Dragon Sword. His glabella flashed with radiance as three soul swords flew out with the fire dragons. In order to do a sneak attack, he had to rely on the fire dragons to conceal the soul swords.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Many small fire dragons clashed with the golden blade light and were shattered by the blade lights effortlessly as they were on completely different levels. Jiang Yi used his mind to control the soul swords to dodge left and right while heading straight for Lu Lin.
Three kilometers, two kilometers… one kilometer!
Jiang Yi’s eyes suddenly darkened as the small fire dragons were almost all destroyed, and Lu Lin discovered the three soul swords with ease.
“Soul spirit attack? Hmph!”
Lu Lin sneered, but he didn’t stop forming the Sky-Devouring Wind Dragon. A triangular seal appeared from his glabella and smashed at the three soul swords.
“Soul-spirit defense cardinal treasure?”
Jiang Yi had this bitter expression, but the soul swords were already right in front of Lu Lin’s face. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and use the soul swords to fly towards Lu Lin’s glabella.
Bang!
When the first soul sword clashed with the triangular seal, Jiang Yi was shocked. His indestructible soul sword was smashed into pieces by the small seal with ease. Afterward, the second and the third soul swords were all smashed up. During the clash, the small seal would radiate with thunder light and tear up the soul swords without any difficulties. The small seal was like a thunder god which could destroy any invading soul spirit attack.
“What is this soul spirit defense cardinal treasure? How can it have such power? Does it have thunderbolts? No wonder it could destroy my soul swords with ease.”
Jiang Yi turned pale with fright, and the only thing he felt glad was… when his soul sword was destroyed, his main soul spirit didn’t have any reaction. It seemed like the soul swords and the main soul spirit didn’t have any connection. Despite the case, he was still feeling extreme heartache. These soul swords didn’t come easy, and every God’s Sob can only let him produce three of them.
In fact, Jiang Yi didn’t have a great understanding of the Lu Clan. If he did, he wouldn’t have released a soul spirit attack. The Lu Clan had a unique treasure which was the thunder stones!
The thunder stones didn’t merely allow for the tempering of the body, and the creation of great arrays, it was also a superior material for refining treasures. The Lu Clan had studied the thunder stones for many years, and they developed a secret art 10,000 years ago. They used the thunder stones to refine a transcending saint artifact meant for soul spirit defense, the Thunder Seal!
Thunder Seals were very precious, and if a top-class Thunder Seal was taken out to auction, it would be able to sell for 100 billion celestial stones at least. The top-class Thunder Seal could withstand a soul spirit attack from a peak-stage Heaven Monarch. Lu Lin naturally wasn’t qualified to possess the top-class Thunder Seal, but since it was his clan’s specialty, he did have one superior-class Thunder Seal.
“What should I do?”
Jiang Yi was anxious. If his soul swords were useless, there was no point in this duel. That small seal was too horrific, and a simple clash was enough to destroy his soul sword. Even if he released all his soul swords, they would all be destroyed in just a few breaths.
Lu Lin was a low-stage Heaven Monarch, and these great clans’ young masters frequently consume spirit herbs. His soul spirit was definitely not weak. A few breaths weren’t enough time to kill him and would simply waste all of his soul swords instead.
Chi! Chi!
Lu Lin’s Sky-Devouring Wind Dragon has successfully formed again. A giant golden dragon whizzed over with spatial fluctuations, which engulfed Jiang Yi who was desperately trying to escape. Subsequently, the golden dragon exploded, breaking the Thunder Fire Divine Shield while Jiang Yi was blasted away and vomiting blood again.
“Sky-Turning Cauldron!”
The small cauldron in Jiang Yi’s hand flew out. If he didn’t release the Sky Turning Cauldron, he probably wouldn’t have the time to even form the Thunder Fire Divine Shield or take a breath. Once the Sky-Turning Cauldron was sent out, Lu Lin was smashed down. He quickly burst out from the ground and there still wasn’t a hint of damage. That dull yellow spirit-connected cardinal treasure, Mother Earth Armor, was just too tough in defenses.
It felt as though both sides had turned into a battle of attrition, and they were seeing who would be the first to be unable to withstand and who would be smashed to death first.
It was obvious that Jiang Yi was suffering more. Lu Lin’s cultivation realm was higher than his, and he had consumed the Nine-Revolution Scarlet Blood Elixir. He even had two spirit-connected cardinal treasures. Even though Lu Lin didn’t fully refine it and couldn’t execute the full power, it was still enough for Jiang Yi to complain bitterly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Jiang Yi’s speed wasn’t comparable to Lu Lin so he had been blasted again and again. His Sky-Turning Cauldron smashed Lu Lin multiple times and finally dealt damage to the latter. It was a pity that the corner of his mouth only oozed a trace of blood while Jiang Yi’s inner organs were in severe injuries, and his speed was rapidly decreasing.
The Nine-Revolution Scarlet Blood Elixir could last for two hours, but the problem was… Jiang Yi might not even hold on for one hour!
“Hahahaha, bastard. Let me see how long more can you endure?”
Lu Lin had been smashed by the Sky-Turning Cauldron again. Every time the Sky-Turning Cauldron was released, it would shrink. Jiang Yi would have to pour in his essence force before releasing it again. Lu Lin took this short interval to cleave out tens of thousands of blade light abruptly before swiftly preparing the ‘Sky-Devouring Wind Dragon’ dao pattern. This was Lu Lin’s strongest attack but was only a mid-grade dao pattern. If he had fused a high-grade dao pattern—even if it was the lowest one-star dao pattern, Jiang Yi would have been dead by now.
God damn it!
Jiang Yi was so frustrated after all the beating in this battle. His speed wasn’t fast enough, his defenses were slightly weaker, his attacks were far inferior, his Thunder Fire was ineffective, the Sky Turning Cauldron wasn’t enough to kill his enemy, and he didn’t dare to use the soul swords.
Escape with Heaven Evasion? Not possible!
The worst-case for him was to concede, but if he were to concede, would Lei Qiyan end the fight and teleport them out? Furthermore, this was a great opportunity; and if he didn’t kill Lu Lin here, he would never have the chance in the future. Lu Lin had attempted to forcefully marry Jiang Xiaonu, which triggered his intention to kill.
Hoo-Hoo!
As the Sky-Turning Cauldron returned, impressive sounds of wind had echoed by Lu Lin’s side; and wind dragons were converging and forming a giant wind dragon. After Lu Lin poured in his essence force, it turned into the ‘Sky-Devouring Wind Dragon’ dao pattern. The giant golden dragon flew over with ear-piercing sound. Even if one couldn’t see the giant dragon, just the ear-piercing sounds of wind were enough to make him felt disgusted, uncomfortable, and nauseating.
“Disgusted, uncomfortable, and nauseating?”
Jiang Yi’s soul spirit shook as he suddenly recalled that Ghost Noise that he heard in the Nangong Clan’s Mystic Realm, which was even more unbearable than this. His mind flashed with an idea. If… he was able to create that sounds of wind in the Mystic Realm and make Lu Lin feel extremely disgusted and uncomfortable, would his mental spirit be in chaos? Would it give Jiang Yi the opportunity to kill him with the soul swords?
“Sounds of Wind? Ghost Voice? Soul Sword?”
Jiang Yi’s eyes gradually turned misty as he actually ignored the approaching golden giant dragon. The Fire Dragon Sword was lightly brandished, causing the surrounding wind to flutter. He had comprehended a total of three wind attribute dao pattern, the Power of Wind, Binding of Wind, and Wind Myriad. He had a rather deep comprehension for the quintessence and laws of the wind.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The giant golden dragon flew over and engulfed Jiang Yi and immediately exploded. Jiang Yi’s Thunder Fire Divine Shield was destroyed, and the Thunder Fire scattered all over. Jiang Yi’s body flew far away like a kite with its line cut off.
However, it felt as though he had turned foolish for this moment as he didn’t form the Thunder Fire Divine Shield; neither did he release the Sky Turning Cauldron. He merely brandished the Fire Dragon Sword constantly and controlled the surrounding wind to dance around while his eyes were dazzled like a fool.
“En?”
Lu Lin was originally prepared to defend and waited for Jiang Yi to send out his Sky-Turning Cauldron. Yet, he noticed that Jiang Yi didn’t attack and had yet to form the Thunder Fire Divine Shield?
He was instantly ecstatic as he cleaved with his giant iron ruler and shouted out, “Little bastard, time to die!”
