"Nine Heavens Thunder God Destruction!"
As the power of thunder and lightning converged to its peak, the Celestial Secret Daoist unleashed his most formidable Thunder Technique, intent on killing Lin Changâsheng here and now.
If Lin Changâsheng wasnât crushed today, eliminating him in the future would be near impossible.
After all, this youth had achieved Middle Stage Nascent Soul at such a young age; it would only be a matter of time before he ascended to become a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator.
If he reached that realm, there would truly be no one left in the Beimu Immortal Race able to oppose him.
"Holy Golden Flame Fist!"
Just as the Celestial Secret Daoist cast his Immortal Technique, the Beimu Immortal Emperor too unleashed a killing move.
Flames of gold clung to his fist aura as he punched toward Lin Changâsheng.
Dominating and ruthless, this attack was also called the Immortal Golden Flame Fist; once the fist aura struck an object, the golden flames couldnât be dissipated and would burn for a whole ninety-nine days.
Not to mention a living personâeven the toughest substance would melt into liquid.
The flaming fist aura shot forth, heading directly for Lin Changâsheng.
"Thousand Brushing Hand Seal!"
Seeing both launch their attacks, Celestial Concealment refused to be outdone; gritting through agonizing pain, he sent a palm strike, unleashing thousands of palm seals that surged toward Lin Changâsheng head-on.
As the three mighty powers struck, the surrounding Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivators also pressed the encirclement, all unleashing their strongest attacks of a lifetime.
Gazing at the endless onslaught of Immortal Techniques, Lin Changâsheng promptly summoned forth the Tower of Myriad Beasts.
This treasure was incomparably sturdy, able to shield him from much of the assault.
The Tower of Myriad Beasts swelled with the wind, transforming into a hundred-zhang tall spire, instantly blocking every attack aimed at his back.
Lin Changâsheng only needed to confront Celestial Concealmentâs attack from the front.
To Lin Changâsheng, Celestial Concealment was the greatest threat.
After all, he possessed the cultivation of a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator; even gravely injured, his power was unmatched.
Even if he didnât slay the Beimu Immortal Emperor or the Celestial Secret Daoist today, he must crush Celestial Concealment.
"Die!"
Lin Changâsheng slashed out with his blade.
A blood-red blade aura tore through the sky, surging straight for Celestial Concealmentâs palm seals.
BOOMâ
In an instant, countless attacks bombarded the Tower of Myriad Demons behind Lin Changâsheng, erupting in repeated thunderous blasts.
At the same time, Lin Changâshengâs blade aura collided at that moment with the thousand palm seals unleashed by Celestial Concealment.
Their powers clashed once moreâthe force of the palm seals was instantly shredded by the blade aura.
And the oncoming blade aura didnât slow, slashing right to Celestial Concealmentâs face.
"What the..."
As the blade aura closed in, Celestial Concealmentâs eyes widened in shock.
Reflected in his pupils was that blood-red blade aura closing in.
Just as it was about to slice through his neck, the Celestial Concealment Divine Master crushed a Talisman Treasure.
A flash of golden brillianceâand in front of him, a golden Light Shield materialized.
BANGâ
The blade aura struck the Light Shield, instantly halted in its tracks.
Celestial Concealment wasted no time, gritting through the agony and fleeing immediately.
Now, severely wounded and no match for Lin Changâsheng, staying would mean certain death.
"Where do you think youâre going?"
Lin Changâsheng was about to give chase, but then, from the heavens, thousands of bolts of lightning rained down, blocking his path.
KABOOMâKABOOMâKABOOMâ
Some lightning bolts struck Lin Changâsheng directly before he could react.
But the damage was almost negligible.
After Lin Changâsheng invoked the Dragon God Golden Body Saint Body, his physical strength had reached the Nascent Soul Great Cultivator level.
Against attacks from Middle Stage Nascent Soul, it was nearly impossible to inflict real harm.
The reason Lin Changâsheng managed to gravely injure Celestial Concealment was because he wielded an Upper Grade Spirit Treasure.
Its power was terrifyingânot something a Lower Grade Spirit Treasure could compare to.
"You want to die? Iâll oblige you first!"
With his Divine Sense locked onto Celestial Concealment, there was no escaping Lin Changâsheng, no matter how he tried to flee or hide.
After all, Lin Changâshengâs Divine Sense could spread a full seven thousand li.
Even for a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, escaping beyond seven thousand li wasnât a feat that could be done in mere moments.
Faced with these troublesome pests, Lin Changâsheng expanded his Divinity Transformation-level Divine Sense outward.
In an instant, the many Nascent Soul cultivators felt their strength plummet from the oppressive force.
Even Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivators could barely move an inch.
"Is that... Is that Divinity Transformation-level Divine Sense pressure?"
"Impossibleâheâs just Middle Stage Nascent Soul, how could his Divine Sense rival Divinity Transformation?"
"What is this monster? Did he resurrect by seizing a body from the Burial Immortal Realm?"
"CrapâI canât even move my body!"
...
Surrounding Beimu Immortal Race Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivators had their eyes wide with terror.
Theyâd thought that killing Lin Changâsheng together wouldnât be hard at all.
But theyâd never imagined that he not only possessed countless Spirit Treasures, but also Divine Sense at the Divinity Transformation level.
How could they possibly contend with that?
The pressure of his Divine Sense was simply too terrifying.
It not only suppressed their cultivation and powerâit slowed all movement, too.
"Die!"
Lin Changâsheng wouldnât grant them even a moment to thinkâhis blade slashed straight for the Beimu Immortal Emperor.
Right now, the Emperor was closest; heâd be the first to be sent on his way.
The force of Lin Changâshengâs blade aura was overwhelming; even though the Beimu Immortal Emperor had Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivation, he couldnât even summon a Spirit Treasure to block.
He was cleaved in two, falling dead in midair.
If not for Lin Changâshengâs suppressive power, perhaps the Emperor could have summoned his Spirit Treasure to fight back.
But under the pressure of Divine Sense, with his power drained, he was not Lin Changâshengâs match at all.
"The... The Immortal Emperor is dead?"
The surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators looked on, faces stricken with utter disbelief.
Their strongest weapon, the Immortal Emperor of the Beimu Immortal Race, couldnât withstand a single slash from Lin Changâsheng?
This strike sent shockwaves through all the Beimu Immortal Race elite.
Even the Celestial Secret Daoist was so terrified, he immediately fled, not daring to challenge Lin Changâsheng any further.
"You think you can escape?"
Lin Changâsheng had no intention of letting anyone off; when he tried to leave earlier, theyâd stopped him.
Now, they would all stay!
Lin Changâsheng swept his blade aura, slaughtering everyone in sight.
Not a single Early Stage Nascent Soul cultivator could withstand a blow from Lin Changâsheng.
One after another, they exploded into clouds of blood in midair.
In the end, only one Celestial Level Daoist managed to escape.
Lin Changâsheng was worried about Yu Wenjingâs safety, so he didnât give chase.
Instead, he rushed after Celestial Concealmentâs disappearing figure.
"Master, are you alright?"
The Celestial Secret Daoist had just made it back to the Celestial Secret Tower when the Little Divine Master hurried to ask.
Heâd thought, with so many powerhouses encircling Lin Changâsheng, he was doomed for sure.
Yet none could have predicted what happened in the end.
Lin Changâsheng, by himself, had slaughtered hordes of Nascent Soul cultivators of the Beimu Immortal Race.
Even their Immortal Emperor had fallen.
"Quickâgo ask Master Bi Xi to intervene!"
It took a long moment for the Celestial Secret Daoist to snap out of it; this youthâs cultivation was simply terrifying beyond reason.
Now, the only one who might be able to oppose Lin Changâsheng was Master Bi Xi.
...
But there was no need for them to inform himâBi Xi had already sensed all that transpired.
He was furious beyond measure.
A mob of Nascent Soul cultivators tried to kill Lin Changâsheng, yet theyâd all ended up dead insteadâa disgrace of epic proportions.
All the years heâd spent nurturing themâwhat a colossal waste of time.
Were it not for the drain on his Divine Soul every time he broke free from the Stone Statue Array, heâd have personally slain Lin Changâsheng long ago.
But now, with things as they were, Bi Xi couldnât afford to hold back anymore.
To him, crushing Lin Changâsheng was but a trivial matter, barely costing him any Primordial Spirit Power.
Vroomâ
In the next instant, a beam of golden light shot forth from the massive Bi Xi stone statue, streaking straight for Lin Changâsheng.
