The Magic Spirit Sect's signature ability was refining evil spirits.
In battle, they would create a celestial do, using thick fog to turn the battlefield into their ho ground, and then exploit this strong geographical advantage to achieve victory.
The Blood Shadow Sect's cultivation technique involved releasing a blood fog in battle to hinder the enemy's speed, thereby gradually expanding their own advantage.
Therefore, in ambushing Lin Bai, these two sects served as the vanguards.
The blood fog was intended to reduce speed, and the celestial do to obscure vision—a battle strategy designed entirely against Lin Bai.
Of course, considering Lin Bai was a ruthless individual capable of single-handedly wiping out an entire sect, they hadn't planned to eliminate him with this tactic alone. They only hoped to use the evil spirits to exterminate the Skyfall individuals first, thereby restricting Lin Bai's Palm Thunder.
Yet, no sooner had the battle begun than Xin Shang and the others nearly had their eyes pop out of their sockets.
What in the world is happening?
Where is the so-called Cui Thick Leg?
How did lightning appear before the Skyfall even uttered a word?
"We've been tricked!" Ge Feiyun's face turned livid as he watched the evil spirits, which his sect's disciples had painstakingly refined, turn to ash and smoke. "Lin Bai's Palm Thunder doesn't require that ridiculous incantation! This was a ruse he'd laid!"
"Is he truly that cunning?" Xin Shang watched, aghast, as the Palm Thunder rained down like a storm.
The intelligence had been provided by the Skyfall known as Human Disqualification.
However, they hadn't trusted the Skyfall's words completely. They still conducted a thorough investigation before the battle, only then finalizing this strategy.
But the battle spiraled out of their control from the very start.
"During the confrontation with Return to Dragon View, all the Skyfall from the Beggar Gang were wiped out, yet he still insisted on reciting that ridiculous incantation, even deceiving other Skyfall. He has endured and hidden his true capabilities, laying far-reaching plans; he had likely orchestrated today's situation long ago," Zhao Tulong analyzed gravely, his gaze profound as he added in a solemn tone, "Righteous Door's ambitions are vast, and we were too rash..."
"What Dao Xu said might be true. Do we still have a chance to kill him?" Shen Kuang stared at Lin Bai expressionlessly. The pain Shen Simshui had caused him had entirely transford into hatred for Lin Bai.
"He's not at the Divinity Transformation Realm. If he were, a celestial do of this scale couldn't trap him," Ge Feiyun stated confidently, gazing at the one-eyed Lin Bai within the do. "At most, he's like us, a Nascent Soul cultivator, perhaps slightly stronger. In a one-on-one fight, none of us are his match, but if we join forces, killing him would be effortless..."
Human Disqualification was Greg's new account, and he had provided the intelligence on Lin Bai to the Five Evil Sects.
He had also witnessed the events related to the voice recorder later. But after seeing its effects, he chose silence. He was worried that the Five Evil Sects would be frightened by Lin Bai, because once the operation against him began, it would be very difficult for them to withdraw.
The official announcent had stated there were no storyline NPCs, which ant Lin Bai could be killed.
Since the players couldn't handle him, adding more enemies for him to face was the best option.
In Human Disqualification's heart, it didn't matter if all the Five Evil Sects perished; more powerful NPCs would undoubtedly appear to avenge them.
Wild heavens bring rain, and wild arrogance brings disaster; there would always be an NPC Lin Bai couldn't defeat...
A person's mindset is difficult to change. Human Disqualification had always despised actions that disrupted ga balance, and moreover, Lin Bai had single-handedly destroyed so many days of his effort.
He had never hated an NPC so intensely. This was a score he was determined to settle.
On the Levitation Talisman, players like Dragon Breath watched in stunned silence as evil spirits darted through the fog and lightning struck down around them.
This was a true battle in the Immortal World.
Ghastly winds howled, ghostly shadows shrieked, and lightning bolts crashed down right beside them...
The imrsive experience was beyond terrifying.
It was only a ga; if this were reality, nine out of ten players present would have wet their pants in fear, let alone think about fighting.
"Completely defenseless," Dragon Breath felt the sluggishness in his body and couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Our levels are too low. Those involved in the attack have at least Golden Core Cultivation. These aren't enemies we should be facing." Crazy Man widened his eyes but couldn't see Lin Bai's figure ahead. He could only see the Taoists of Return to Dragon View guarding them. He sighed, "To think we once wanted to take down Lin, the Storekeeper. Looking back now, it was laughably immature..."
"Lin, the Storekeeper's style is clearly different from others. Without him, perhaps we could have enjoyed an authentic xianxia ga experience," Mountain Tiger mumbled. "The ga company has indeed gone off track. Designing a pure xianxia ga would have earned a much better reputation."
"I wonder how Lin, the Storekeeper, will break this deadlock?" I'm Not an Alt Account mused. "If Lin, the Storekeeper, defeats the Five Evil Sects, we should have ti to practice these immortal techniques and Taoist law, right? Once we learn these immortal skills and techniques, fighting will be pretty aweso. I want to calm down and practice skills and Taoist law, not ss around with that Spoken Law Follows stuff anymore."
" too."
" too."
The surrounding players chid in, agreeing.
With five voice recorders playing at staggered intervals, Lin Bai could practically plow the ground with Palm Thunder.
The blood mist and celestial do were controlled by Golden Core Monks, and Lin Bai's Palm Thunder was the nesis of evil spirits. In a short ti, the number of evil spirits within the celestial do dwindled significantly.
It was unknown whether they had retreated voluntarily or had been annihilated by the Palm Thunder.
Lin Bai was currently channeling the cultivation of nine Golden Core cultivators and one Nascent Soul, making his cultivation level the highest among everyone present. However, his vision was still obscured by the fog, and he couldn't see far.
Under such circumstances, the Blacksmith's six-piece set was useless, and Cupid's arrow, which required a target, had also beco ineffective.
Like the players, Lin Bai was also experiencing a battle in the Immortal World for the first ti.
He had to admit, this thod of fighting, which obscured vision, was truly detestable.
Lin Bai pushed his ntal power to its peak, activated the Golden Middle Cover, issued a guarding order to all the puppets, and recalled his left hand, which had been unleashing Palm Thunder. Leaving the Taoists and players of Return to Dragon View behind, he activated the Wind Riding Art, his left palm forward, lightning clearing the path as he charged straight ahead.
He had initially extended his left hand to strike preemptively, to eliminate the enemy's effective forces.
Now that the enemy knew the players wouldn't play a significant role in the battle and wouldn't attack them, his left hand, naturally, would be used to guard himself.
The celestial do had a limited range; he had to regain his field of vision.
With his Agility increased by thirty, the Blood Shadow Sect's speed-reducing blood mist had little effect on him.
While moving through the mist, Lin Bai positioned his right eye in front and his left eye at the back of his head.
Though sowhat grotesque, it allowed him to observe his surroundings in 360 degrees, with no blind spots.
Since mastering the Great Demon Solution Book, Lin Bai had invented this new fighting style, which essentially eliminated all blind spots during group battles.
Lightning cleared his path.
Attacks from the sides and rear would be blocked by the puppets.
Dao Xu was at the Nascent Soul Realm, so it wouldn't be easy for ordinary Golden Core Monks to break his defense.
It would have been better if he hadn't regained consciousness. Regaining consciousness wasn't a huge issue in itself, but regaining consciousness only to be hit by an Arrow of Resistance made Dao Xu the most wretched of all the puppets.
The contradiction between his body's actions and his mind's intent was enough to drive him mad. While slaughtering the evil spirits rushing toward Lin Bai, Dao Xu roared, "Xin Shang! Ge Feiyun! Kill first! I will not attack you! If you don't kill , you will never touch Lin Bai!"
"You bunch of fools! What's the use of sending these Golden Core Monks to their deaths if you don't make a move yourselves?"
"If you can't kill , then crawl back to the Five Magic Sects and send soone who can!"
"If you don't flee now, by the ti he turns you all into puppets, it will be too late to escape!"
"Fellow Sect Leaders, don't listen to Dao Xu's nonsense. I, Lin, am not a bloodthirsty person. How about we dispel this mist, have a proper discussion, and renegotiate the distribution of territories?"
Hearing Dao Xu's enraged shouts, Lin Bai laughed heartily. "Today, I, Lin, hosted the Qian City Cup, inviting sects like Chao Yuan and others to co and exorcise demons. Yet, up to now, not a single sect has co to lend a hand. It truly makes , Lin, sowhat disappointed in these renowned righteous sects. Instead of us causing mutual destruction while they sit back and reap the rewards, why don't we join forces, form a Justice League, and go seize their territories!"
As he spoke, Lin Bai's vision suddenly cleared.
Suddenly, a blinding light exploded before Lin Bai's eyes.
A sharp pain shot through Lin Bai's right eye, and his vision turned completely white; he couldn't see a thing.
Damn! A flashbang! Is my right eye blinded?
Lin Bai knew this was bad. Using his rear-facing left eye to observe his surroundings, he shot upwards into the sky with his bodyguard entourage. At the sa ti, relying on instinct, he hurled the Blacksmith's six-piece set towards the direction from which the blinding light had originated.
CRACK!
With a crisp sound, the blinding light vanished instantly.
"My Devouring Eye Mirror! You thief, you destroyed my magic treasure! You and I are sworn enemies!" Pei Yanzong shrieked hysterically, erupting in a ball of fla as he lunged towards Lin Bai.
