The only problem was that the Water God Cult that had been around for centuries might collapse.
But that was fine.
After living for so long, Black Water Taoist had come to terms with many things. Strength and the ability to summon hundreds of followers paled in comparison to a long lifespan. Living longer was the most meaningful.
Death was like an extinguished lamp.
Hence, forget Black Wind Cave Master and this unknown kid, no matter how powerful someone was, even if that legendary Daolord was here, Black Water Taoist wouldn't back down.
"Kill!"
Black Water Taoist was a veteran so he wouldn't hesitate when it was time to make a decision.
"Blackwater nether beast, come out!" Black Water Taoist summoned his pet beast.
Five hundred years ago, the Black Water Daoist was a disciple of a declining Dao Sect. However, he did not abide by the rules of the sect and schemed to steal a Beast Taming Talisman from that declining Dao Sect. After that, he went to a dangerous place and used that Beast Taming Talisman to control a Black Water Nether Beast.
This beast was one of the ferocious beasts of ancient times. If it weren't for the beast taming amulet, Black Water Taoist wouldn't have been able to form a blood pact with it with his cultivation level.
However, he was blessed with providence and succeeded.
After centuries of cultivation, Black Water Taoist's blackwater nether beast was now at the peak of Rank 5. If it weren't for the fact that Black Water Taoist couldn't find a way to promote his pet beast to Rank 6, he would have done so long ago.
However, even at the peak of Rank 5, to Black Water Taoist, his nether beast was the strongest among all Rank 5 beasts.
At this moment, he controlled the Blackwater Nether Beast to pounce over. It was like a black curtain covering the sky, or like a surging tide. The Blackwater Nether Beast turned into water and covered an area of 100 feet, pressing over with an earth-shattering momentum. The black water was highly toxic and even a little bit of it would be fatal.
Just this move alone was indeed amazing.
"Dragonfire!"
Lin Jin's reflexes were quick. He cast the spell at the same time as his opponent. Opening his mouth, a ball of fire flew out. It was a sea of fire that covered the sky as well.
"Holy sh * t!" Daoist Hu, who was watching from the back, was also stunned. He almost couldn't help but make a move. However, Daoist Hu was clear that his Imperial Wind Technique would be suppressed when facing the Black Water Beast. His Imperial Wind Technique wasn't as effective as his Imperial Fire Technique.
After all, fire and water were incompatible.
With a rumble, water and fire collided.
On Lin Jin's side, a raging inferno surged forward like a sea of fire. On the other side, the black water man's side was a tidal wave of black water trying to extinguish the sea of fire.
Neither the black water nor the dragonfire gave way to the other as they continuously collided and consumed each other. Their clothes fluttered, and it was evident how powerful this collision was.
"Xiaohuo!"
Seeing that the water and fire attacks were in a stalemate, Lin Jin immediately cast a buff spell.
A ball of flame shot out from Lin Jin's arm and shot toward Taoist Black Water like a sharp blade. Halfway through, it transformed into a large fire wolf and was right before Taoist Black Water in the blink of an eye, opening its jaws to bite.
Black Water Taoist shuddered in fear. He no longer had the time to be shocked by the young man's ability to multitask and release his pet beast to attack him. He screamed in fright and raised a black water shield with one hand, trying to block the fire wolf's attack.
However, under Xiao Huo's bite, the Black Water Shield was broken in the blink of an eye. If Taoist You Water hadn't intervened in time and controlled the Flying Snake to stop Xiao Huo, the Black Water Daoist would have been devoured.
A battle between Rank 5 pet beasts was certainly earth-shattering. With Lin Jin's strength alone, he was able to hold his own against Taoist Black Water and Youshui. In fact, Lin Jin was even slightly stronger than them. This was truly astonishing.
Perhaps it was because he felt humiliated, or perhaps he wanted to cheer himself up, Black Water Taoist bellowed, "I've been cultivating for five hundred years so how could I possibly lose to a kid like you?"
Having said that, he let out a long howl and the surrounding black water seeped into Black Water Taoist's body. Instantly, the latter's body expanded. His aged appearance now seemed to have turned a hundred years younger. His eyes turned pitch black as he charged forward like an arrow, swinging his fists.
"Black Water God Fist!"
This was Black Water Daoist's famous ultimate technique in his early years. It was a combination of spells and martial arts, and now it had a backlash from the Black Water Beast to strengthen his body. Clearly, this technique had its side effects, but Black Water Daoist clearly couldn't care less.
He had to get his gourd back as soon as possible or else he wouldn't be able to hold out much longer. Since he was going to die anyway, he didn't have any reservations.
Admittedly, Black Water Taoist was fast and his ambush was executed beautifully. The Black Water God Fist carried a thick layer of black liquid as it smashed toward Lin Jin.
Lin Jin could tell that Black Water Taoist was about to go all out. Although Lin Jin could sense danger approaching and knew that this attack was no small matter, it only served to motivate Lin Jin.
"If you want to go all out, then let's go all out!" Lin Jin gathered his mana and raised his palm to strike.
Sky Scorching Palm.
In an instant, the fist and palm collided.
Lin Jin's palm was like a stream of fire, blazing like the sun. Sky Scorching Palm lived up to its name. When this palm was launched, raging flames rippled outwards, burning the sky. Those who weren't strong enough would be instantly burned to death within a thousand feet.
The impact of this palm even reached the ground. Many of the Water God Cult members below instantly cried out in pain. Smoke billowed out from some of the houses and some were even set ablaze.
According to the Daolord's Divine Book, Sky Scorching Palm was a supernatural technique that gathered the surrounding flames. In other words, the more flames there were, the more powerful the attack would be.
Although Black Water Taoist's Black Water God Fist was by no means weak, it was clearly weaker than Sky Scorching Palm. Moreover, Lin Jin had already formed blood contracts with two Rank 5 pet beasts. The flames were now tinged with the color of blood. Hence, Black Water Taoist was instantly defeated by Lin Jin.
"Ah!"
Black Water Taoist's expression changed drastically as he spat out a mouthful of black blood. Half of his body was set ablaze as he screamed in pain as he retreated.
Defeated.
As an expert who had been cultivating for five hundred years, he was defeated today. And it was a complete defeat.
This had nothing to do with cultivation time. Although Lin Jin hadn't been cultivating for a long time, he had gone through a lot of actual combat.
On the other hand, although Black Water Taoist had lived for a long time, he had spent most of his time borrowing the power of the Four Seas Freedom Gourd to prolong his last breath.
Moreover, as time went on, Black Water Taoist became more and more afraid of death. All he could think of was how to extend his lifespan. As for cultivation and spells, he didn't spend much time studying them. Moreover, Black Water Taoist wasn't exactly outstanding when it came to comprehension.
After clashing head-on with Lin Jin's Sky Scorching Palm, he was defeated.
Although a ball of black water immediately gushed out of his body to extinguish the flames, he was already half-dead. His aura had diminished and he no longer had the strength to fight.
On the other side, Taoist You Water was controlling his flying snake to fight Xiao Huo.
Seeing his master's defeat, Taoist You Water's heart thumped wildly. He knew things weren't looking good.
