There was a man flying through the air beside the gargantuan mountain.
He was the divine general of the Green Wood Imperial Family, Dong Guo.
Dong Guo was a little dejected as he searched for a way out of the divine mountain.
He looked up at the comical face in the sky, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
The comical faces floating in the sky seemed to be mocking him for everything he had done before, deeply engraved in his bones and heart.
He had been single for over three thousand years, and he had thought that he had found his true love. However, it turned out that he wasn't the one holding that woman, and he wasn't the one saving the damsel in distress. Not only that, but he had also been severely wounded by a Soul Formation Stage cultivator …
He had even overheard other cultivators discussing him in hushed tones, saying that he was the weakest Return to Void Stage cultivator in ten thousand years …
If it weren't for the fact that the situation was quite urgent, he would have killed that blabbermouth cultivator a long time ago!
Dong Guo looked up into the sky and heaved a long sigh. "Sigh, why didn't I be braver and run away with Princess Yun Le? Even though it would have been a little slower, perhaps I would have still been able to escape. "
A remorseful expression appeared on his face. He felt like he had missed out on a perfect opportunity.
However, it was also at this moment that he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure flying past on a dog in the distance.
"That … that's An Lin?"
Dong Guo's eyes widened, and his heart rate accelerated.
In his eyes, An Lin wasn't a rival who posed much of a threat, but he soon discovered how naive he was. All of the heavy blows he had suffered had been bestowed upon him by An Lin.
In terms of love, Princess Yun Le was extremely fond of An Lin. In terms of career, An Lin was the sect leader of the first-rate Four Nine Immortal Sect. In terms of power, An Lin had severely wounded him with a single sword strike …
Tears welled up in Dong Guo's eyes as he thought about this.
If things continued like this, An Lin would probably haunt him for the rest of his life.
No! Dong Guo abruptly raised his head, and battle intent burned in his eyes as he turned toward the figure flying toward him on Dog Kinesis Flight. I was only wounded by him because I was too careless, and he may not be a match for me in a real battle.
Furthermore … he was carrying that phoenix egg on his back!
Once I snatch the phoenix egg, even if I don't use it, I can hand it over to the Green Wood Imperial Family. That way, I can transfer the hatred to them! An Lin couldn't possibly go against the entire royal family, could he?
Also, because of the phoenix egg, my status in the royal family will rise immeasurably, and I will receive countless resources. In fact, the emperor might even betroth his daughter to me, hehehe …
An involuntary smile appeared on Dong Guo's face as he imagined the story of him reaching the pinnacle of his life.
His footsteps did not stop as he continued to traverse space and immediately charged towards An Lin.
"Fellow Daoist An Lin, please wait!" Dong Guo yelled.
An Lin was flying along the mountain path on Dabai's back, and he had already detected Dong Guo's presence before he had even spoken.
An Lin turned around to look at the man who was flying towards him. He was slightly taken aback. Wasn't this the man whom he had killed in an instant? Why did he ask him to stop?
"Please take my sword!" Dong Guo suddenly drew his Green Dawn Spirit Sword, and his aura soared explosively as an extremely sharp azure sword projection appeared around his body, slicing through the air toward An Lin's heart!
An Lin: "…"
Dabai: "…"
Dong Guo was ecstatic at the sight of An Lin's dumbstruck expression, and his heart was filled with glee!
The azure sword projection pierced through the air like a divine sword, sweeping up turbulent waves of vital energy within a radius of five kilometers.
Even a Return to Void Stage mighty figure would definitely be severely wounded if they were to take this attack head-on.
An Lin was just a Soul Formation Stage cultivator. No matter how powerful he was, there was no way he could survive this attack head-on!
Ding!
The Green Dawn Spirit Sword pierced through space before striking An Lin's heart, upon which boundless light erupted forth.
Dong Guo was then dumbstruck.
The tip of the sword had stopped on An Lin's chest, tearing through his robe, but it was unable to pierce even an inch into his skin.
A five-colored light swirled around the spot where An Lin's heart had been struck, and it was like the most indestructible wall there was not even a single crack.
Dong Guo: "…"
His most powerful attack had been blocked without so much as a scratch?
This … this was way too terrifying! This didn't make any sense!
He raised his head to discover that An Lin was looking at him with a cold expression. An Lin was looking down at him as if he were looking down at an ant, and his legs involuntarily gave out from under him.
"Heh, you're telling me to stop so I can take a sword strike from you?" An Lin chuckled coldly.
"Mr. An Lin, this is a misunderstanding! I saw that your cultivation base was quite profound, so I decided to test you. This is purely a sparring match! "Dong Guo's expression shifted drastically as he hurriedly tried to explain himself.
An Lin's lips twitched. "Do you even believe what you're saying?"
Dabai: "… Even a dog wouldn't believe that, woof!"
A ferocious expression suddenly appeared on Dong Guo's face. "Take another sword strike!"
The azure sword projection flashed again before hurtling toward An Lin's neck at an extremely terrifying speed!
Ding!
The sword projection tore through the air for over three thousand meters, sweeping up gale-force winds.
The tip of the sword stopped right before An Lin's neck, but the sword projection, which was sharp enough to shatter space, was unable to advance any further.
Dong Guo was astonished, and he hurriedly retreated in an attempt to escape.
An Lin twisted his neck from side to side, and a layer of golden lightning suddenly appeared over his body. "You've already taken two sword strikes from me, so it's only right for me to return the favor."
Whoosh!
Lightning flashed as An Lin pounced toward Dong Guo at an even faster speed while Golden Void Lightning revolved around his longsword.
Dong Guo's expression shifted once again. What a familiar technique!
Thinking back, his illustrious reputation had been ruined by this very same technique!
"Break through!" He didn't want to fall for the same trick again. The Green Dawn Spirit Sword's sword projection soared into the sky as it slashed down upon the oncoming An Lin.
The green sword projection was like an upside-down green river as it swept toward An Lin. Everything in its path was pulverized by the boundless sword intent.
This sword strike was imbued with the most powerful sword intent he had learned in his life, and he was determined to avenge himself!
An Lin's sword also fell, and a Golden Void Sword projection that was powerful enough to pulverize all things clashed with the azure river.
Boom!
Heaven and earth tremored violently as the golden lightning and the azure sword projection clashed with one another. Boundless energy swept forth in a frenzy, dyeing the entire space in two completely different colors.
"I, I finally managed to block it!" Dong Guo panted heavily as a smug and confident expression finally appeared on his face as he looked at the energy clashing before him.
Right at this moment, heaven and earth suddenly fell into darkness.
His surroundings were suddenly plunged into boundless darkness, and even his senses were completely stripped away.
A sense of impending doom instantly enveloped his entire body, and he immediately slashed toward a certain spot in the air.
However, the sword in the darkness was even faster, and it instantly punctured his chest.
Splat! Blood splattered through the air.
When heaven and earth returned to normal, Dong Guo was greeted by the sight of An Lin's expressionless face, as if he had just done something extremely mundane.
An Lin impaled Dong Guo with his sword, and he crashed to the ground, creating a crater with a radius of over a thousand feet.
Dong Guo was pinned to the ground by the Evil-Slaying Sword, and his entire body trembled as a sense of indescribable exhaustion welled up in his heart.
"You, how did you suddenly become so powerful?" He stared at An Lin with incredulity on his face.
He had clearly unleashed his full power just then.
Even in the face of boundless darkness, he was still able to accurately determine his enemy's location.
However, for some reason, An Lin's speed and power seemed to have suddenly elevated explosively to a higher level. Dong Guo was completely unable to defend himself, and he was instantly wounded by An Lin's sword.
"How did I suddenly become so powerful?" An Lin turned to Dong Guo with a peculiar expression. "Isn't that obvious? I wasn't using my full power just then! "
Dong Guo: "…"
Splat …
Dong Guo threw up another mouthful of blood as his blood flow was disrupted.
