Chapter 373 Scarlet Firmament Sword

Just as the glow of the sea of blood was about to drown Lin Xun’s entire body, he released a deafening roar, “Open!”

Boom!

A terrifying, unparalleled fist force burst forth like a prison subduing everything. Instantly, the sea of blood exploded. Naturally, it was the Prison Suppression Destruction!

At the same time, Lin Xun whizzed into the air, charging toward Hua Wuyou.

Uproar broke out from the audience. That kid is amazing! I never imagined he could escape Hua Wuyou’s ultimate killing move

“He didn’t die…” Hua Wuyou frowned, surprised by Lin Xun’s tenacity.

Immediately, flames frantically leapt all over her body, and her imposing aura intensified. She charged forward to meet Lin Xun head-on.

Boom!

She swung one hand across the air, sending a sharp beam of blood-red light slashing through the space and aiming for Lin Xun’s head.

Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged. He left countless images behind him as he sped through the air. Then, a giant ancient dragon seemed to be tearing the sky apart. It was Dragon Destruction.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Within a second, the two had clashed dozens of times, erupting in blazes of light that engulfed the huge arena. It was as though fireworks were dancing in the air.

The void shook, and the air currents were disturbed.

Everyone quivered with emotion. They had thought that Lin Xun would be suppressed within seconds but he had managed to hold out against Hua Wuyou for such a long time!

That fact alone was enough proof that Lin Xun was extraordinary.

Shua!

Suddenly, Hua Wuyou made several mysterious steps towards the astral deities, like she was dancing in the sky. Her figure was enveloped in divine, scarlet light like a blood-red sun.

A wave of blood-red light rushed out from her body, crushing the space and producing a terrifying destructive force.

It was another cultivation art unique to the Hua Clan—Blood Rainbow Airslash! It could split mountains and the void!

An influential figure of the older generation couldn’t help but gasp in surprise, “Hua Wuyou is so talented. She has mastered two unique cultivation arts of the Hua Clan!”

However, Lin Xun seemed unafraid and intended to strike first. A wave of frightening aeth power shot out from his fingers and palm as though it was capable of pushing through mountains.

Sky Devouring Destruction!

It was one of the three most powerful strikes of the Nine Heavenshaking Destruction. It was terrifyingly obscure just like the Prison Suppression Destruction and All-Spirits Destruction.

As Lin Xun slammed his fist forward, the space before him constantly collapsed with a rumble.

Crack!

In everyone’s eyes, the space seemed like a fragile mirror splitting apart with countless cracks like it was about to engulf everything.

Many people’s hair stood on end at the sight of such a spectacle. What terrifying cultivation art has Lin Xun learned? Why is it so powerful?

“It’s definitely not a secret cultivation art passed down the Lin Family!” remarked an influential figure. He had a great deal of experience, but Lin Xun’s power and cultivation arts still astonished him.

An earth-shattering collision shook the entire area.

Fortunately, it happened in the arena. Otherwise, the shockwaves of the collision would have devastated everything within a radius of dozens of miles!

It was a showdown between Spirit Sea cultivators and was completely different from those at the Spirit Dipper Stage. Spirit Sea cultivators could manipulate the mighty force of heaven and earth, move unhindered in both air and land, and produce unimaginable destructive power.

Hua Wuyou remained unscathed after that mighty blow, but her expression tensed when she saw Lin Xun counter her Blood Rainbow Airslash. The murderous intent around her intensified even more.

Opposite her, Lin Xun was also secretly amazed. She indeed lives up to her name. Her strength is stronger than I imagined.

In other words, Hua Wuyou was no doubt the strongest opponent Lin Xun had faced after breaking through to the Spirit Sea Stage!

“I can’t help but look at Lin Xun differently now!”

”Indeed. He can last till now against Hua Wuyou despite being only at the initial Spirit Sea Stage. This isn’t something ordinary cultivators can do.”

“I didn’t expect it. I really didn’t expect it. No wonder Lin Xun was so fearless. It turns out that he is a rare genius!”

Uproar broke out from the audience. Not a single person wasn’t surprised by Lin Xun’s performance.

After all, they weren’t optimistic about Lin Xun, and they couldn’t imagine how an Initial Spirit Sea teenager could battle against Hua Wuyou.

Hua Wuyou no longer held back. She came to realize that Lin Xun was an extraordinary cultivator, and she had to bring out some truly powerful combat means if she wanted to kill him.

Shua!

With a slight movement, the imposing aura around her intensified even more, and flames surged around her body. She resembled a phoenix bathed in flames and wielded unparalleled power.

Instantly, she suppressed Lin Xun’s attack and completely covered up his brilliance. His situation grew more perilous.

“Senior Sister Hua is truly enraged. This is her true strength. I have seen her go crazy before in the Dao Martial Department. She was exactly the same as she is now.”

“The Demoness is indeed frightening. Her power is infinite and unfathomable,” a Qinglu Academy student marveled with admiration.

Many people in the audience also couldn’t stop their expressions from changing. Hua Wuyou is worthy of her name. Her foundation is strong, and her power is astonishing.

𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

They just didn’t expect Lin Xun to turn the situation around under the terrifying suppression of Hua Wuyou.

Hua Wuyou’s pupils shrank. She also never thought that Lin Xun, a teenager at the initial Spirit Sea Stage, would be so difficult to deal with.

“Die!”

With a clear roar, a cloud of scarlet light took the shape of a sharp blade and lunged toward Lin Xun. It was the Scarlet Cloud Blade Art, a swift, unstoppable attack.

Everyone’s chest tightened, and the same thought appeared in their minds. It’s over for Lin Xun!

Who would have thought that before such a thought faded from their minds, a storm of light sprang out from Lin Xun’s body and shot into the sky?

His body was like an abyss spewing out molten lava. Then, he slammed his fist forward, causing the heaven and earth to pale! It was an indescribable fist force, full of destructive power and the aura of despair. It was about to wipe out all life force.

Many people shuddered inwardly and were chilled to the bone. The fist force seemed to be shaking their spirits.

It was All-Spirits Destruction!

It was the final stroke of the Nine Heavenshaking Destruction Art and also the strongest!

With an explosive bang, the arena plunged into chaos. Divine light engulfed the area and caused a tremendous earthquake. Rune symbols emerged one after another around the arena. The earth-shaking collision had activated the defense mechanism around the arena. Otherwise, the impact would have spread to the audience!

Hua Wuyou’s slender figure swayed in the air, and then she staggered back and her pretty face flushed.

On the other side, Lin Xun reeled back, tottering. His face blanched and blood trickled down the corners of his mouth.

Si—

Gasps rang out in rapid succession from the audience. The battle was too terrifying! They were most shocked that Lin Xun managed to block the attack! Moreover, Hua Wuyou seemed to be caught off guard and was blasted back. It was too unbelievable.

Not a single person thought that Lin Xun, whom they had previously looked down on, would possess such heaven-defying strength. No one could imagine how he, an initial Spirit Sea cultivator, could fight against Hua Wuyou who was at the intermediate Spirit Sea Stage.

So strong!

Unquestionably, Lin Xun was a genius descended from heaven. Not many teenagers would be able to do the same as him in the entire Forbidden City.

“Damn it. I haven’t seen him in two years, but he has become even more abnormal!” Ning Meng cursed.

Previously, he was worried to death about Lin Xun but Lin Xun had demonstrated such astonishing powers.

Shi Yu, Gong Ming and Ye Xiaoqi all nodded with agreement. Lin Xun was the same as he was in Blood Kill Camp—abnormal! No wonder he could repeatedly create many miracles in Blood Kill Camp!

“That kid...how is he so powerful?”

In another box seat, Lin Tianlong, Lin Nianshan, and Lin Pingdu looked overcast and troubled. They had been worried that Hua Wuyou would accidentally kill Lin Xun, but now that they saw Lin Xun evenly matched with Hua Wuyou, they felt a little unhappy.

There was even a killing intent surging in their hearts. If Lin Xun is so amazing at such a young age, then what will happen if he grows up?

However, they suppressed it for now. The battle wasn’t over, and it was still too early to make any decisions.

“Damn it! Damn it! Lin Xun must die. Can’t let him live!” Hua Wuhen screamed furiously, his voice echoing endlessly in the box seat. He felt strongly threatened by Lin Xun’s performance.

Previously, he wanted Lin Xun dead to vent his anger, but now, it absolutely wasn’t only to vent his anger. He wanted to eradicate a potentially huge threat!

Lin Xun is only in his teens, yet he’s already such a demonic monster. He would no doubt become a serious problem in the future.

At that moment, many influential figures as well as leading figures of the younger generation had different thoughts and ideas after witnessing Lin Xun’s frightening strength.

It was the same with Hua Wuyou.

Her killing intent intensified, and she grew increasingly determined.

At the beginning of the battle, she attached no importance to Lin Xun, but she finally understood that he was a terrifying, demonic monster!

Clang!

A scarlet sword sprang into the air. It seemed to be burning in blood as it landed in Hua Wuyou’s beautiful, fair palm. Her expression suddenly turned chilly.

At the same time, an indescribable sword qi spread out from her slender body, shaking the void.

The spectacle of the sword alone was enough to make the surrounding air whimper! The sword was called Scarlet Firmament, and it was an ancient sword passed down the Hua Clan!

The clamor muted and everyone’s expression tensed. They realized that Hua Wuyou was truly enraged and was about to unleash her most powerful trump card!
