Finally, at a certain mont, Lin Kun's aura reached its peak. His entire body emanated a scorching heat, and the crimson divine energy made him look like a man of fire. The long staff in his hand was also wrapped with the divine energy, turning black and red, like fiery serpents darting around the staff.
Lin Kun let out a great shout, then leaped high into the air. The long staff in his hand appeared to be ablaze, crashing down towards Lin Chen like a teor.
"Fiery Python Pounce!"
The long staff in Lin Kun's hand turned even more crimson, the massive divine energy gathering on the staff, truly resembling a fiery python charging straight at Lin Chen!
Seeing this, Lin Chen squinted his eyes, and divine energy surged within him, rapidly circulating along a profound path, then extending out and attaching to the Tianyan Ancient Sword, instantly forming dark golden Sword Qi. A sharpness that could pierce anything erupted forth. The originally plain-looking Tianyan Ancient Sword now shone brightly.
At this mont, Lin Kun's attack was already close, the crimson divine energy surging from above.
Lin Chen whispered:
"Tianyan Nine Moves! Sword Break!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the Tianyan Ancient Sword upwards, unleashing a dark golden sword light that shot out with a clang, colliding fiercely with Lin Kun's attack.
Imdiately, Lin Kun's face turned grim as he realized that Lin Chen's dark golden Sword Qi assaulted him like an angry dragon. His divine energy was unable to resist, a trendous force transmitted through his hand, causing sparks to burst from his long staff. Finally, he lost his grip, and he was sent flying backward. The terrifying dark golden Sword Qi soared into the sky, eventually shattering into countless light spots.
anwhile, on other platforms, battles continued. Many strong disciples, like Ning Yan, had already swiftly finished their matches and were ditating on the side.
Ning Yan suddenly sensed a powerful strike erupting from a platform not far from him. He couldn't help but glance over, seeing a disciple from the Heavenly Sword Pavilion with the fourth-level divine power battling a sixth-level divine power disciple from the Crimson Fla Sect. Judging by appearances, it seed the latter had lost.
"Hmm? A fourth-level divine power beating a sixth-level divine power? Quite a genius indeed!"
Ning Yan comnted inwardly about Lin Chen, casually glanced at him, then closed his eyes again. But in an instant, he reopened his eyes, his aura involuntarily bursting out!
"It's you!!"
Ning Yan's eyes turned blood-red, fixating fiercely on Lin Chen, as if wanting to imprint Lin Chen's image in his mind forever, even his teeth grinding noisily.
Beside him, a fellow disciple with ninth-level divine power, like Ning Yan, frowned, not knowing what was happening with Ning Yan, just finding his deanor slightly odd.
"Ning Yan? What's wrong with you?"
Upon hearing the query, Ning Yan snapped back to reality, imdiately reining in his aura, smiling at the curious and fearful eyes around him, saying to his friend:
"Nothing, just a small problem during cultivation!"
"I see, then you should be careful, don't let it go wrong. If there's an issue, consult the elder."
Hearing this, his friend understood, believing Ning Yan's explanation, as minor issues in cultivation can indeed cause uncontrollable aura.
Ning Yan cald down sowhat, but his gaze remained fixed on Lin Chen, inwardly roaring:
"So it's you! I've finally found you!"
"Fourth-level divine power? Haha, not bad at all, having killed my brother Ning Hao, and judging by your strength, you probably killed Feng Shichang too? Haha, enjoy your ti for now. You'd better pray you don't run into
soon, or you'll regret ever being born!"
At this mont, Lin Chen had already broken Lin Kun's attack. Lin Kun forced a bitter smile but still clasped his hands towards Lin Chen, saying:
"Brother Lin Chen, you're too strong, I'm no match!"
"Haha, not really, I just won by luck!"
Lin Kun smiled slightly at these words and said:
"Lin Chen, you're a formidable opponent. I hope to have the chance to spar with you again in the future!"
"There will be!"
After saying this, Lin Kun leapt off the platform, and just as Lin Chen was about to step down, a sudden feeling of being watched by a venomous beast overwheld him, making him extrely uncomfortable.
He imdiately followed the sensation, soon spotting Ning Yan glaring fixedly at him, causing him to frown:
"It's him? Could it be my words ca true?"
Seeing Ning Yan's eyes, which seed ready to devour him, Lin Chen didn't think Ning Yan wanted to be friends, nor could he understand, as he had been careful. How had he been discovered?
In truth, it was Lin Chen's misfortune. During his fight with Lin Kun, his aura burst out, initially unnoticed by Ning Yan. But as he casually glanced over at their battle, Lin Chen's performance was indeed striking, causing Ning Yan to take another look. Unexpectedly, a familiar feeling emanated from Lin Chen, causing Ning Yan first to be stunned, then to quickly realize Lin Chen was the murderer of Ning Hao!
In previous battles, the crowd and the speed of Lin Chen's combat had shielded him from Ning Yan's notice. Who would have thought, in a re coincidental glance, Ning Yan would spot Lin Chen? A true coincidence.
Now, as Lin Chen t Ning Yan's gaze, he had mostly pieced things together; his killing of Ning Hao had likely been exposed. Though he wasn't sure how Ning Yan knew, Lin Chen understood one thing, Ning Hao had ninth-level divine power! And the grudge was deep, irreparable unless one of them died.
Lin Chen felt a headache, not expecting to get into such a big ss so soon, but he quickly ca to terms with it.
"Hmph, I'll face whatever cos. I'll adapt to whatever moves you make! As the ship approaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten. I'm curious to see what ninth-level divine power truly looks like!"
Having thought things through, Lin Chen ignored Ning Yan, walking over to Li Ping to ditate and rest.
