The moment the demonic beast appeared, the crowd could no longer remain calm. Especially when the demonic beast emitted a tyrannical aura that filled the entire tavern. Everyone felt a chill run down their spine as cold sweat dripped down their backs, drenching their bodies.
The Scarlet Flaming Tiger's body continued to recover. At that time, the entire tavern would be destroyed by the Scarlet Flaming Tiger's body. Even the surrounding buildings would be destroyed by the Scarlet Flaming Tiger's body.
"Hehe, I want to see when you will come out." His gaze landed on a certain corner of the tavern. Over there, there was an old man hiding in the shadows. He should be the guardian of the tavern.
The old man's cultivation base was very strong. Of course, in Lin Ray's eyes, he was just an early-stage Dao Fruit Sage.
As for the other cultivators in the tavern, other than an early-stage Dao Fruit Sage, the rest were all at the Hierarch Realm and the weaker God Emperor Realm.
There were also those below the Emperor God level, and most of them were below the Emperor God level. There were no more than 20 Ultimate Gods and Emperor Gods combined.
Looking at the Scarlet Flaming Tiger, Wu Ding was stunned. He stared dumbfoundedly at the rapidly expanding Scarlet Flaming Tiger and felt a lingering fear in his heart.
He had seen demonic beasts of this level before. But … how the hell did this demonic beast charge out from Lin Ray's body?
"Father, aren't we causing too much of a commotion by causing such a ruckus?"
"Why don't I inform the people in the tavern and let them …" Looking at the chaotic scene, Lin Xian`er started to worry.
Previously, she was just angry and didn't expect things to turn out like this. Only now did she realize that this place wasn't the Divine World, nor was it the Xuanzong Sect. It was the powerful Azure Mystic Empire.
"It's fine, don't worry."
"Anyone who dares to speak ill of my daughter in front of this sovereign must die. No matter how strong they are, what their status is, or how powerful they are!" Waving his hands, he gave a reassuring smile.
"Little Tiger, go ahead and cause a ruckus. If anything happens, your Brother Lei will take care of it for you." He transmitted his voice to the Scarlet Flaming Tiger.
"Okay, Brother Lei!"
The Scarlet Flaming Tiger seemed to have been waiting for this sentence for a long time. Its original speed increased by several times and its body rapidly grew.
Kacha …
Kacha kacha …
A series of shattering sounds rang out. At this moment, everyone who was in a daze regained their senses. They raised their heads and looked towards the source of the sound, only to see that the second and third floors had been destroyed by the Demonic Beasts.
"Let's go! The inn is going to collapse …"
"Quick, run!"
Someone shouted, and in the next moment, everyone rushed out of the Balance Tavern as if they had gone mad. They stopped in the empty space outside the tavern and turned to look at the Balance Tavern. There was nothing but fear in their hearts.
As for the previous attitude of ridicule towards Lin Ray and Ye Xiwen, at this moment, it had long since disappeared, and only fear and dread remained.
They were afraid that Lin Ray would come back to his senses and deal with them after the matter at Balance Tavern was resolved.
Kacha …
Cracks appeared outside the Balance Tavern. As the cracks grew larger, the entire tavern swayed in the wind and rain, as if a gust of wind would blow it away.
"What … what is going on? Why … is the Balance Tavern acting like this?"
"That's right, this is the Balance Tavern. How could something like this happen?"
"F * ck, look! That big fellow in the Balance Tavern, it looks like … like a Demonic Beast?"
"Hey, old man, are you seeing things? How could a Demonic Beast appear in the Qing Xuan Empire's Xuanyuan Imperial Capital?"
The commotion was so big that the passersby did not gather in front of the tavern to watch the show.
Inside the tavern, Wu Ding and Long Aotian did not leave. With their cultivation, even if the tavern was completely destroyed, they would not be in any danger at all.
Right now, Wu Ding was most worried about Lin Ray's safety. Although there was a powerful Demonic Beast, the Balance Tavern had Sage level cultivators. The two could not be mentioned in the same breath, alright?
"Brother Wu, this friend of yours is quite bold!"
"He dares to do this to the Balance Tavern. I … I really don't admire him!" After glancing at Lin Ray, Long Aotian finally opened his mouth to praise Wu Ding.
Yes, he was praising him. He felt very satisfied with Lin Ray's actions. Back then, he also felt that the rules here were a little ridiculous. He wanted to make a move but was stopped by his late father.
Now that he saw someone else doing the same, he could not help but feel excited. Looking at the basically destroyed tavern, he felt an indescribable joy in his heart.
Wu Ding: …
Looking at Long Aotian, Wu Ding was speechless. He thought that Lin Ray was a lunatic. He did not expect this guy to be a lunatic too.
"Alright, alright, let's leave quickly. This place is going to collapse soon." He said to Lin Ray.
"Yes, yes. Brother, let's leave quickly. Isn't it interesting for you to go out and take a look?" He agreed. Then, he turned to Lin Ray and cupped his hands.
"You are …?"
Long Aotian's words caused Lin Ray to start. This fellow was different from others. Others only had appearances. Even if Wu Ding didn't, he would still be afraid of the Balance Tavern.
However, this young man before him had no fear at all. Not only that, he even dared to say such words.
"I'm Long Aotian."
After introducing himself, Long Aotian waved his hands and interrupted when he saw the tavern was about to collapse. "Alright, stop dawdling. The little girl is still here. Even if you are not afraid of the little girl …"
"Tsk, don't drag me into this. Just this little thing and you still want to make things difficult for this lady?" Hearing Long Aotian using her as an excuse, Lin Xian`er directly interrupted, her expression filled with disdain.
"This … I …" Lin Xian`er's reaction caused him to be caught off guard.
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Ray bitterly smiled and shook his head. This daughter of his was good in every aspect. It was just that … she was too strong in this aspect.
However, she did have the qualifications to be strong. She who was at the peak of the Divine Monarch Realm was truly nothing in this current situation.
"Skyfrost Sword Art, First Stance: Ten Thousand Miles Drifting Snow."
It was unknown when, but a longsword appeared in her hands. Activating the Skyfrost Sword Art, numerous sword silhouettes appeared. Seeing the ceiling collapsing towards Linley, Lin Xian`er waved the longsword in her hands, causing the sword silhouettes to shoot out at high speed.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out. The wooden fragments falling from the ceiling were all shattered by Lin Xian`er's attack, turning into dust.
"Skyfrost Sword Art – Second Stance: Snow Congealing."
The Mystic Ice Heavenly Force circulated as traces of cold qi gushed out. In addition to the attribute of the Skyfrost Sword Art, the two of them were extremely compatible.
Under the circulation of the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force, the user of the Skyfrost Sword Art would be even more proficient in using it. It was as though the Skyfrost Sword Art was a sword art created for the Mystic Ice Heavenly Force.
Lin Xian`er's sword slashed out numerous lotus flowers in the air as snowflakes appeared, shooting out in all directions.
"Kacha …"
Abruptly, a scene that caused Long Aotian to be shocked appeared. When the snowflakes came into contact with the entire Balance Tavern, they instantly melted, forming a layer of frost.
"Shatter!"
Kacha …
Bang …
As the word 'shatter' rang out, the remaining ruins of the Balance Tavern were instantly razed to the ground.
The four of them and a gigantic demonic beast appeared in the vision of the crowd. When they saw Lin Ray and the others, the crowd couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. They silently remembered these people in their hearts, swearing that they couldn't afford to antagonize such people.
"It's over, it's completely over. It would be strange if they didn't treat me as their accomplice." Upon seeing the gazes of the crowd, Wu Ding's countenance crumbled as he bitterly smiled in his heart.
At the side, Long Aotian's thoughts were the complete opposite of Wu Ding. His face was filled with excitement as he stared at Lin Xian`er, his eyes filled with worship.
Thinking back to what he said earlier, he wasn't afraid of being embarrassed. He walked to the front of Lin Xian`er and asked, "Miss, your sword art is so powerful. I wonder which sect you are from?"
"Can you introduce me to your sect?"
Lin Ray, "…"
Lin Xian`er, "…"
Wu Ding, "…"
Initially, Long Aotian's impression of Qin Wentian wasn't bad. But now, his impression of Long Aotian was that he was shameless.
He had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen someone as shameless as Qin Wentian. Before this, he wanted to be the hero who saved the beauty. But now, after seeing how powerful the sword art Lin Xian`er used was, he wanted her to introduce him to his sect.
How shameless was he? She couldn't be bothered with Long Aotian and walked to the other side of Lin Ray. However, she didn't relax in the slightest because at the instant when the inn was completely destroyed, a terrifying pressure bore down on her.
"Father, what should we do now? The person hiding in the shadows hasn't come out yet. If this continues, the Azure Mystic Royal Clan might be alerted! "
"Mhm, don't worry." He stretched out his hand and patted Lin Xian`er's head. He then turned his head and instructed the Scarlet Flame Tiger, "Little Tiger, protect Xian`er well. If anyone dares to have designs on Xian`er, kill them all."
"Awooo …"
"Brother Lei, don't worry. Even if I die, I won't let Xian`er suffer any injuries." The Scarlet Flame Tiger roared in rage as it guaranteed.
"Mhm, okay."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and wrapped it around Lin Xian`er's waist. The two of them instantly vanished and when they appeared again, they were already behind the Scarlet Flame Tiger.
"Xian`er, wait here for a while. After father deals with the Saints here, I will bring you home to cook delicious food for you." He placed Xian`er down as he spoke in a gentle voice.
"Father, you … be careful."
Upon seeing the worry in his daughter's eyes, Lin Ray flashed a reassuring smile as he nodded. "Don't worry, your daddy is Lin Ray, the sect leader of the Xuanzong Sect."
After reminding his daughter once more, he turned and vanished, returning to his original location. He stared at Wu Ding and the Scarlet Flame Tiger, "The two of you better leave quickly!"
After speaking, he ignored the two of them and walked to the center of the Tianping Inn. His gaze turned to the location where the Saints were as he calmly spoke, "Dao friend, do you want this lord to invite you out or do you want to come out yourself?"
Lin Ray's actions caused Chang Zai and the others to be bewildered. They stared at the scene, wanting to see what tricks Lin Ray was up to.
However, Wu Ding and the Scarlet Flame Tiger were different. They knew that the Dao friend he was referring to was a cultivator from the Tianping Inn.
"Still not coming out?" Lin Ray furrowed his brows when he saw that there was no movement from the place where the person was hiding. Then, his brows relaxed.
"If that's the case, then … let's move around a bit!"
Ever since he entered the Saint Realm, he had never fought with his full strength. Now that he had the chance, why not?
He had come out this time to gain experience and find experts to spar with. Then, he would be able to break through.
"Roar!"
A dragon's roar seemed to come from all directions. It was loud and clear, intimidating everyone present. They were all stunned on the spot.
"Clang!"
The Primal Chaos Dragon Spear appeared in Linley's hand. He stared at the cultivators of the Balancing Scale Tavern, then his eyes narrowed and he disappeared.
"Come, let this lord see how strong your Tianping Inn's backup is!" His figure appeared above the place where the person was hiding. Then, he waved the Primal Chaos Dragon Spear in his hand and used Martial God's move.
"Pfff …"
Suddenly, with the place where the person was hiding as the center, the space within dozens of meters started to overlap.
"You … have the power of space?"
There was a cry of surprise. An old man appeared in the empty place. He stared at Lin Ray angrily. His eyes were filled with shock.
"Heh, old man, I asked you to come out but you didn't. You just had to force this lord to do it." Lin Ray did not stop. He wanted to kill the old man.
"You …" Feeling the killing intent, the old man's expression changed. He took out a long sword and circulated his cultivation quickly.
"Bastard, you're still far from being able to kill me."
He brandished his longsword and streaks of Sword Will shot out, bombarding the folded space.
He had a premonition that if the space completely overlapped, he would either die or be seriously injured. If he entered the space and encountered a space storm, he would only end up … dead.
"Stop!"
Seeing that the space was still folding, his sword technique was completely useless. All of a sudden, a shield appeared in his hand. He raised it above his head and placed it horizontally. Suddenly, the space began to expand.
"Heh, you want to use the shield to prevent the space from overlapping?" Looking at the old man's action, Lin Ray sneered.
Illusory Spirit Blood Fire, refine it.
If Linley wasn't an artificer, perhaps his opponent would have been able to break through it. However, it just so happened that there were quite a few of them. As a Saint-level artificer, binding a top-grade divine artifact like this would only take the blink of an eye.
"Boom …"
The Illusory Spirit Blood Fire rushed out and covered the shield in the old man's hand. His spiritual energy entered the shield and found the spiritual imprint. He sneered and the Illusory Spirit Blood Fire instantly covered the spiritual imprint. In just a moment, the spiritual imprint left by the old man on the shield was destroyed.
"Pfff …"
He spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale. He looked up and glared at Lin Ray. His heart was filled with shock.
In just a moment, he could erase his spiritual imprint in the shield. Only a blacksmith could do this.
"You … you are a Saint level blacksmith?" asked the old man with a trembling voice.
As far as he knew, the only ones who could do this were those who had broken through to the Saint level, and only those who were at this level could do it.
"Oh, not bad. You have just revealed my identity. However … there is no reward!"
"You still have to die." He did not forgive the old man just because he knew that he was a blacksmith. He saw killing intent in the old man's eyes. He could only feel at ease when someone who wanted to kill him was dead.
"You …"
At this moment, the old man regretted it. If he knew that things would turn out like this, he would have stopped the servant when he was talking nonsense.
Now, he regretted it. However, even a Saint level expert could not be so cowardly.
He looked up at Lin Ray and said, "Although I don't know which sect you are from, you must remember that the Shi Clan will avenge me."
