Chapter 255: Chapter 240: Killing Liu Yiyuan
Seeing the black fog so fierce, Liu Yiyuan was also reassured.
Then he turned his head towards Lin Jing.
“Please take action, senior, to help rid me of him.”
The black fog did not even look at Lin Jing but rather stared at Liu Yiyuan with hollow eyes:
“Do you understand my rules?”
“Understood!”
Liu Yiyuan nodded, and then said:
“After this is over, I will offer a hundred cultivators to you, senior, for your enjoyment.”
After hearing this, the black fog burst into laughter:
“Hahaha, good…”
Next…
The black fog first dispersed, and when it reconvened, its face was turned towards Lin Jing.
“A mere Foundation Establishment ant, I don’t even deign to lift a hand…”
However…
No sooner had the black fog’s words fallen.
Lin Jing only felt a powerful Divine Sense attack him in an instant, rushing towards his mind.
Lin Jing’s head immediately throbbed with pain, as if countless steel needles were piercing his brain.
He endured the intense pain and looked at the gourd.
At this moment, the red glow beneath the black fog at the gourd was even more brilliant.
And the speed at which it absorbed Spiritual Energy had become even more astonishing.
Unexpectedly, the black fog was so shameless…
It had just said it scorned to act against me, and in the blink of an eye, it launched an attack on me.
Lin Jing hadn’t even had the chance to react before the Divine Sense attack had already struck.
If it weren’t for Lin Jing being in an enhanced state from an ability right now, his sea of consciousness would have probably been shattered by the black fog’s Divine Sense attack just now.
The black fog, seeing that its attack had not immediately shattered Lin Jing’s sea of consciousness, couldn’t help but be puzzled:
“Eh?”
“Such a powerful Divine Sense…”
At that moment.
The lightning formed by the Extinguishing True Heaven Thunder Talisman had once again condensed.
“This Extinguishing True Heaven Thunder Talisman is really annoying…”
The black fog looked up at the sky.
Afterward.
It could be seen dispersing into a large hand that swatted at the lightning above…
With the black fog shifting its target, Lin Jing felt a moment of relief.
Seizing this opportunity.
Lin Jing hastily took out a Flying Sword from his Storage Bag, one that hadn’t been used in a long time.
This Flying Sword…
It was the one that had been tainted with the fallen spirit’s aura before.
Lin Jing had thought of this countermeasure upon observing the deep connection between the black fog and the gourd.
The fallen spirit’s aura could absorb Spiritual Power and could not be expelled.
If he could get the gourd tainted with the fallen spirit’s aura, the black fog would naturally be affected and its strength greatly diminished.
Thereafter.
Lin Jing picked up the Flying Sword and threw it directly at the gourd.
Yes, threw…
Now, this Flying Sword, due to the long absorption of the fallen spirit’s aura, had a very weak control for Lin Jing.
It was difficult to make it fly steadily over.
Rather than trying to control it to fly, it was faster to just throw it.
However.
The black fog was obviously more formidable.
The moment the Flying Sword reached the gourd, before even touching it, it was seized by a hand created by the black fog.
At that moment.
The black fog had already dispersed the lightning, and the energy of the Extinguishing True Heaven Thunder Talisman was by then completely exhausted.
The black fog once again transformed into a mocking and aged face.
“Not bad, quite the detailed observation, hoping to destroy me by destroying the gourd.”
“What a pity, it’s just not very smart.”
“The gap in strength between us can’t be bridged with little tricks.”
At this moment.
Lin Jing had no intention of exchanging more words with it.
“Explode!”
With Lin Jing’s loud shout,
the Flying Sword self-detonated.
Following the self-explosion of the Flying Sword, Lin Jing was already prepared.
If it had no effect, he would enter the System Space directly.
Right now.
He had no other concern, as it was most important to save his own life.
……
When the Flying Sword exploded, the black fog was stunned for a moment.
Then it burst into laughter:
“Hahaha…”
“Is this it?”
“Is this your counterattack method?”
However.
At that moment.
Its laughter abruptly stopped.
One moment arrogant, the black fog suddenly wilted.
Thereafter.
The black fog grew thinner, and a look of terror appeared on the face.
“Impossible…”
“What exactly did you do to me?”
The black fog only managed to utter that sentence before being sucked into the gourd.
Immediately afterward…
The stopper of the gourd automatically sealed itself again.
The patterns on the gourd’s body also slowly changed from blood-red and eventually returned to their original black color.
Upon seeing this scene, Liu Yiyuan was startled…
He couldn’t fathom how Lin Jing had managed to do all this.
And when the gourd reverted to its original form,
Lin Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment,
With the black mist from the gourd gone, only Lin Jing and Liu Yiyuan were left.
Only then did Liu Yiyuan realize the seriousness of the situation.
He was so gravely injured at this point that he could barely move.
And Lin Jing’s combat strength had virtually no loss at all.
Now, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Liu Yiyuan looked toward Lin Jing.
Lin Jing was looking back at him, his eyes cold, showing no emotion.
The thought of being killed by Lin Jing instantly filled Liu Yiyuan with fear.
His eyes were filled with terror as he watched Lin Jing step closer, shivering, he said:
“Lin Daoyou, don’t kill me…”
“I can give you Spirit Stones, cultivation techniques, Elixir Medicines, I have everything…”
“Whatever you want, I can give you, just please don’t kill me.”
However,
Lin Jing remained indifferent.
He continued to walk towards him.
He had to kill this Liu Yiyuan, who would never let him go otherwise.
Seeing that Lin Jing had no reaction,
Liu Yiyuan became even more frantic, propping himself up with his hands and retreating in horror.
At the same time, he pleaded with Lin Jing:
“Lin Jing, as long as you don’t kill me, I’ll do anything for you, let me be your ox or your horse…”
“Please, I’m begging you…”
His fear had reached its peak, and he was filled with regret for ever crossing this man.
“Really!!!”
“I can swear by my Dao heart!”
“As long as you don’t kill me, anything is fine.”
“If you want cultivation techniques, I can give you our elder’s Five Elements Divine Art, if you want Spirit Stones, my Liu Clan has many, and many magical treasures as well…”
“And Huang Qingling…”
“Yes,”
“Huang Qingling…”
“Huang Qingling can be yours too…”
“I swear, I will never fight with you over her again…”
Under the influence of his desire to live, Liu Yiyuan could no longer care about anything else.
However,
Lin Jing found it all just noise.
Afterward,
He commanded the Flawless Sword and slashed directly at Liu Yiyuan.
At that moment,
Liu Yiyuan, frightened, closed his eyes and couldn’t help but cry out:
“Ancestor, save me!”
Suddenly,
A bright light erupted, and from Liu Yiyuan’s forehead, a small human figure shadow emerged.
This shadow looked exactly like Wu Cai Immortal.
The moment Lin Jing saw this shadow, his pupils constricted and a strong sense of alert rose within him, and he quickly retreated.
Liu Yiyuan, seeing the shadow, was like a drowning man grasping at a straw:
“Ancestor, save my life!”
Then, he pointed at Lin Jing and said in panic:
“Lin Jing wants to kill me…”
“Ancestor, please help me kill him.”
However,
The small figure shadow of Wu Cai Immortal, seemed as if it did not see Liu Yiyuan at all but instead spoke to Lin Jing:
“Fellow Daoist, I do not know how my family’s junior has offended you, but please, spare him. I am Wu Cai and will be indebted to you…”
“Otherwise,”
“No matter where you hide, I will pursue and kill you until death.”
It was then that Lin Jing recalled.
This small figure shadow was the Divine Sense imprint of a Golden Core Immortal, only appearing when the marked person was in utmost danger.
Its purpose was to protect the family’s junior.
The Divine Sense imprint had no offensive power; it could only serve as a reminder.
Moreover,
The imprint had completely separated from the creator, leaving only a weak connection.
Thus,
The real Wu Cai Immortal couldn’t see the current situation here.
But,
If he were to kill Liu Yiyuan, he would certainly destroy the imprint,
And then Wu Cai Immortal would surely know.
But that would be after Liu Yiyuan was dead.
By the time Wu Cai Immortal came here, he would have already fled and hidden.
By then…
No one would probably think that Liu Yiyuan was killed by a ‘Qi Refinement Eighth Layer’ cultivator like him.
Furthermore…
Now that it had come to this, Liu Yiyuan must be killed.
Therefore,
A cold gleam flashed in Lin Jing’s eyes as he stepped forward.
Then he commanded the Flawless Sword again, slashing at Liu Yiyuan.
Liu Yiyuan, seeing Lin Jing step forward, was about to beg for mercy again.
Suddenly, he felt a chill at his neck, followed by the world spinning around him…
