And at this moment, a trace of fear finally appeared in Lin Zeyu. Gritting his teeth, he quickly retracted his longsword and used his movement technique to retreat. Lin Zeyu's display of weakness undoubtedly caused Lu Xuan's aura to increase greatly. In a battle, aura was also a crucial factor. Going all out and risking one's life was definitely not the same.
"Still want to escape?" Lu Xuan laughed coldly. The longsword in his hand left his hand without mercy and shot towards Lin Zeyu's back. Lin Zeyu had no choice but to dodge to the side, dodging Lu Xuan's attack. But immediately after, a faint blue light shot out from Lu Xuan's hand. It was the Mysterious Ice Finger.
Lu Xuan had already calculated that Lin Zeyu would be able to dodge his longsword. But even if Lin Zeyu could dodge this attack, he definitely wouldn't be able to dodge his Mysterious Ice Finger. Lin Zeyu's movement technique had yet to reach that level.
The extremely cold mysterious ice energy entered his body. Lin Zeyu only felt as if his entire body was frozen. The unceasing flow of Yuan Power in his body couldn't help but pause for a short moment.
It was this moment! Rushing Thunder Flash!
Lu Xuan roared. His body appeared behind Lin Zeyu without any warning. His fists were filled with all his strength, and the power of the Geng Gold Divine Glyph was completely unleashed. He suddenly smashed his fists onto Lin Zeyu's back. Lin Zeyu felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He vomited blood and fell forward.
If it was in the past, Lu Xuan definitely wouldn't let the Masked Sword leave his control so easily. For a swordsman, the sword was everything. But now, he wasn't just a swordsman, he was also a body practitioner. The power of his fists was not inferior to the power of the sword.
With a suction force, the Masked Sword returned to Lu Xuan's hand. Lin Zeyu had already used this time to quickly flee into the distance, pulling away from Lu Xuan. He looked at Lu Xuan with eyes full of fear. How did he suddenly become so strong?
If it was said that Lu Xuan's previous punch had only injured Lin Zeyu, but he had just eaten Lu Xuan's [Ice Finger], and had also taken two punches, which had seriously injured him.
"Damn it, if I could unleash my full strength, I would kill a mere Lu Xuan like a chicken or a dog!" Lin Zeyu's heart was filled with unwillingness. He was a 4th level Origin Realm expert and he was actually being bullied by a 7th level Spirit Refinement Realm brat.
Lu Xuan didn't care what Lin Zeyu thought. There were no ifs. This was the cave of an ancient powerhouse, so he had to accept the rules here.
"If you're a coward, you'll lose forever!" Lu Xuan had a mocking smile on his face as he looked at Lin Zeyu. Now, it was finally his turn to look at Lin Zeyu with such a gaze. Strength determined status.
"Very well, I want to see how long you can be arrogant for!" Lin Zeyu threw out a ruthless statement and actually dragged his injured body to escape from the grand hall.
Ruo Xiangyi subconsciously wanted to give chase. Lin Zeyu staying here was undoubtedly a ticking time bomb. She didn't know when he would cause trouble.
"Stop chasing." Lu Xuan shouted.
"Why not?" Ruo Xiangyi looked at Lu Xuan with a puzzled expression.
"Lin Zeyu's movement skills are incredible. We might not be able to catch up to him. Furthermore, we don't have a clear understanding of this palace. We don't know where he will hide. Once I obtain the inheritance and control the palace, he will have nowhere to run." Lu Xuan was quite calm. Since he already had the strength to defeat Lin Zeyu, why would he be afraid?
Ruo Xiangyi thought about it and felt that Lu Xuan's words made sense. As long as she could control this palace, no matter where Lin Zeyu hid, he would be found in an instant. She slowly walked back to Lu Xuan's side and looked at Lu Xuan. "I didn't expect your strength to be so amazing. Even Lin Zeyu is no match for you."
Lu Xuan smiled faintly. "The first time I attacked, it was because he didn't understand my strength, which gave me the upper hand. The second time, it was because he was afraid. If he had fought me head-on, I wouldn't have been able to get away with it. Since he ran away this time, he's destined to run from me in the future."
Lu Xuan's last sentence was said with incomparable confidence. It was as if he wasn't talking about the future, but the truth. Ruo Xiangyi couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. This was the first time she had experienced such a domineering tone and attitude. A man was always at his most charming when he was confident.
Shaking off the random thoughts in her mind, Ruo Xiangyi smiled faintly. "It's not up to him to not be afraid. So what if he heavily injures you? Don't forget, I'm still here. I can easily kill a heavily injured Lin Zeyu."
"That's not bad. It seems that I'll have to give you half of the credit for this battle," Lu Xuan said with a smile. He was in a good mood.
Ruo Xiangyi also smiled. "But what you said about being a coward will lose for the rest of your life does make sense."
"Actually, I expected him to run. I wanted to provoke him into fighting me. Unfortunately, he still chickened out in the end."
"Since he chickened out, he will lose for the rest of his life, right?"
"That's right. But now, let's hurry up and find the inheritance of the ancient powerhouse. Only by obtaining the inheritance can I make him truly lose for the rest of his life." Lu Xuan didn't continue speaking with Ruo Xiangyi. He was somewhat impatient to unravel the many secrets in his heart. He only hoped that he would find the answers he wanted here.
After saying that, the two of them only left a trace of vigilance for Lin Zeyu and began searching the hall.
There was an extremely large chair placed on the main seat of the hall. It should be the seat of the ancient powerhouse. On the two sides of the main seat were several dozen slightly smaller chairs. It seemed to be no different from the Profound Ice Pavilion's Profound Ice Divine Hall. Lu Xuan couldn't help but guess that the ancient powerhouse would usually convene other experts here to discuss matters. Could it be that the ancient powerhouse was the leader of a large sect?
With that thought in mind, Lu Xuan slowly walked up to the main seat and directly sat down on the chair. A strange feeling immediately spread out. At that moment, Lu Xuan felt like he was in control of the world. He was a supreme existence, looking down on everything from top to bottom.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little shocked. He originally thought that it was because of the chair itself, but after a closer inspection, he discovered that it was only a very ordinary chair. The only unusual thing was that this chair had been sat on by the ancient powerhouse.
"An ordinary chair is able to bring about such a shocking effect just because it has been accumulating its aura for a long time. Just who is this Ancient Almighty?" Lu Xuan's reverence for the ancient powerhouse increased by another level. Only those who had experienced the feeling of looking down on the world could truly understand what it felt like. It wasn't as domineering and confident as Lu Xuan had imagined. Instead, he felt a heavy sense of responsibility.
After letting out a long breath, Lu Xuan stopped thinking about it. He naturally placed his hands on the armrests and immediately felt that something was amiss. There was actually a mechanism button on each of the armrests.
Lu Xuan subconsciously pressed the button on the left side. Soon after, he heard a soft sound coming from behind him. He saw a large door suddenly appear on the wall behind him. However, this door was enveloped by a familiar layer of red light. It was the Bloodline Barrier.
Ruo Xiangyi was also attracted by the activity on Lu Xuan's side. Looking at the opened door, she couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression. "Could this be the inheritance ground?"
"It should be." Lu Xuan nodded. Without hesitation, he pressed the button on the right side. Sure enough, another door appeared on the right side. However, this time, there was no Bloodline Barrier. Instead, there was a familiar stone pillar. It was exactly the same as the one Lu Xuan had placed the token on.
After the two doors appeared, the two of them no longer had any doubts. Behind these doors was the true inheritance ground.
"I didn't expect this ancient powerhouse to have two inheritances. One is for his descendants and the other is for the fated one." Ruo Xiangyi praised. From the design of the Ancient Era's Supreme Elder, one could undoubtedly analyze this point. Cultivators with the bloodline of the Ancient Era's Supreme Elder could enter the door on the left, and those who obtained the token could enter the door on the right.
Thinking of this, Ruo Xiangyi couldn't help but look at Lu Xuan. She really didn't know where Lu Xuan's luck came from. Not only did he have the bloodline of the ancient powerhouse, but he also obtained the token. This kind of luck was really enviable.
"Which door should we enter?" Ruo Xiangyi walked to Lu Xuan's side and asked.
Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment. He couldn't wait to unravel all the secrets. And these secrets should be behind the door for the fated one. So, he took out the token and walked towards the door on the right.
The stone pillar was exactly the same as the one he saw in the Ancient Forest. Taking a deep breath, Lu Xuan carefully placed the token inside. It was completely compatible!
With a 'ding' sound, the door in front of them slowly opened. Lu Xuan and Ruo Xiangyi both showed expressions of relief, but at this moment, something unexpected happened!
An irresistible force suddenly enveloped Ruo Xiangyi, causing her to cry out in alarm. Lu Xuan hurriedly reached out to pull her back, but he couldn't resist the force. In a moment of desperation, Lu Xuan stuffed the token into Ruo Xiangyi's hand. Holding the token, Ruo Xiangyi suddenly felt her body lighten as the force quietly disappeared.
"What happened?" Lu Xuan asked.
"I felt a force binding me, making it impossible for me to move. Moreover, I also felt as if I was being teleported," Ruo Xiangyi said as she recalled the situation.
"Is that so …" Lu Xuan said thoughtfully, "It seems to be a method left behind by the ancient powerhouse. When the inheritance is opened, all unrelated people will be teleported away from here."
"Then why are you fine?" Ruo Xiangyi was quite grateful for Lu Xuan's decisiveness in stuffing the token into her hand. The token was the key to opening the inheritance, and she didn't even know what it was used for, but Lu Xuan just gave it to her.
Lu Xuan smiled, "Don't forget, I also have the bloodline of the ancient powerhouse, so I also have a chance to obtain the inheritance. Of course, if he also teleports me away, I will take back the token."
Ruo Xiangyi rolled her eyes again, the good impression she had of Lu Xuan instantly disappeared. This person is too direct!
