The Taiqing Palace Palace Master's words caused Tian Yuanzi's expression to darken slightly. Just now, he used the power of the Eastern Xuan Region to force back Bo Xuan, preventing the greatest threat from interfering. He didn't expect that now, the Taiqing Palace would use the same reason to force their Yuan Gate to stop.
But who was he, Tian Yuanzi? No, he wasn't human, so naturally, he didn't need to abide by these so-called rules.
Ren Yuanzi, who understood Tian Yuanzi's intention, stepped forward directly. The aura of the Revolving Wheel Realm swept out in all directions without reservation. His cold gaze swept around, and after seeing that no one appeared, he sneered and said.
"Humph! So, your Dao Sect and Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace plan to compete with my Yuan Gate for this Ancient Battlefield?"
Seeing that the other five super sects had all chosen to stand by and watch, the Taiqing Palace Palace Master couldn't help but sigh inwardly. These guys were all seeking to protect themselves, and none of them dared to show their faces for fear of the Yuan Gate's power.
"This Ancient Battlefield was obtained by the Sword Saint. My Dao Sect is not so shameless as to violate the rules set down at the beginning and forcibly seize other people's opportunities. Moreover, the Sword Saint saved my daughter's life. I, Ying Xuanzi, cannot stand idly by and watch the Sword Saint being besieged by you shameless people!"
Ying Xuanzi's words made the veins on Ren Yuanzi's forehead bulge. His gaze instantly fell on Lin Xuan. If it weren't for this so-called inarticulate guy, how could their Yuan Gate bear such a bad reputation?
He stared at Lin Xuan with cold eyes, but the next moment, Ren Yuanzi's pupils shrank, because he discovered that the energy fluctuations in the space around Lin Xuan seemed a little strange.
"No, he's breaking through!"
Ren Yuanzi's expression changed, and he suddenly shouted. The figures of Tian Yuanzi and Di Yuanzi beside him disappeared the moment Ren Yuanzi spoke.
Ying Xuanzi and the Taiqing Palace Palace Master's expressions turned solemn upon seeing this, and they also disappeared from the spot. After reappearing, they blocked the two of them together with Tian Yuanzi and Di Yuanzi.
In front of Lin Xuan, the space was suddenly torn open, and a palm reached out from it, preparing to strike Lin Xuan. However, Lin Xuan, who was standing in place, seemed to be stunned and didn't react at all.
"Chih!"
Ren Yuanzi, who appeared in front of Lin Xuan, watched as the palm passed through Lin Xuan's body without any obstruction. His pupils suddenly shrank, and without thinking, he turned around and slapped out a palm.
"Boom!"
A section of a sword blade appeared out of thin air, carrying sharp Sword Qi, and directly struck the palm wrapped in majestic Origin Power. Under the Sword Qi, the Origin Power seemed so fragile. Although it blocked the section of the sword blade, the Sword Qi that burst out from the sword blade cut a tiny sword mark on Ren Yuanzi's palm.
After Ren Yuanzi slapped out a palm and blocked Lin Xuan's sword, he took the opportunity to retreat frantically.
Looking down at the sword mark on his palm that was constantly oozing blood, Ren Yuanzi narrowed his eyes and looked at the sword-wielding youth standing there with a cold expression. After sensing that the other party had completely advanced to the Life Profound Realm and Immortal Symbol Master, his eyes became even colder, and he cursed angrily.
"So you broke through, you despicable bastard!"
On the square, countless people's expressions couldn't help but become strange as they listened to Ren Yuanzi's angry scolding. The dignified Yuan Gate Sect Leader, a Revolving Wheel Realm expert, ambushed someone who had just broken through to the Life Profound Realm, and even originally planned to take advantage of the situation, but after failing, he scolded others for being despicable?
Ying Huanhuan, who was being protected behind Wu Dao Old Man, even revealed a bit of disdain. If Wu Dao Old Man hadn't stopped the true-tempered girl, she would have couldn't help but start cursing at this moment.
Hearing Ren Yuanzi's angry scolding, Lin Xuan's expression remained calm, but a hint of regret flashed in his eyes. After all, his strength was still too weak. Otherwise, that sword just now should have been able to directly chop off Ren Yuanzi's palm.
"This Swordplay is called Dog Beating Swordplay, created by Lin Xuan in his spare time. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today, please appreciate it!"
With a flick of his wrist, Lin Xuan charged straight towards Ren Yuanzi with his sword. At the same time, a huge amount of energy directly landed on Lin Xuan's body, causing everyone's expressions to change.
That huge power obviously didn't belong to Lin Xuan, but came from the power of this ancient space. At this moment, the few Revolving Wheel Realm experts hidden in the dark realized that they had completely underestimated Lin Xuan's ability.
This was no longer just unlocking the secrets of the Ancient Battlefield, but directly mastering the power of the entire Ancient Battlefield, being able to mobilize the power of this ancient space for his own use.
Back then, when competing for this Ancient Battlefield, the experts of the Eastern Xuan Region had investigated it. There was a special spirit array in this special space, which maintained this independent space. That special spirit array was even more powerful than the sect-protecting arrays of the various factions.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was obviously using this power to be able to contend with Ren Yuanzi, and even when he killed the Yuan Gate Grand Elder before, it was estimated that he also used this power to perfectly control that huge Heavenly Lightning power.
Looking at Lin Xuan who was coming straight for him, Ren Yuanzi's expression changed drastically. He didn't expect that the soft persimmon he thought he had found had suddenly turned into a thorny, smelly stone.
Immediately, Ren Yuanzi didn't dare to be careless at all. The huge Origin Power fluctuations continued to gather, and at the same time, he wanted to mobilize the power of the surrounding space.
However, under Lin Xuan's control, the space around Ren Yuanzi became extremely viscous, and the sharp sword in his hand, empowered by the rules of this space, ruthlessly descended upon Ren Yuanzi.
"Hum!"
With a flash, Lin Xuan arrived before Ren Yuanzi, and the sharp sword in his hand directly traced an elusive and bizarre arc, slashing directly towards Ren Yuanzi.
"Boom! Boom!"
The fierce Sword Qi struck the thick Origin Power barrier, occasionally erupting with waves of violent energy.
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, the long sword in his hand becoming faster with each strike. Head, neck, heart, abdomen—each strike aimed at Ren Yuanzi's weak points, taking advantage of his defensive gaps. Each time, Ren Yuanzi forcibly blocked them.
The continuous attacks left Ren Yuanzi struggling to cope. Lin Xuan, empowered by a portion of the power of heaven and earth, pushed his Swordplay to the extreme. Each sword carried an extremely powerful aura of destruction. The fierce Sword Qi directly broke through Ren Yuanzi's Origin Power defense, leaving many sword marks on Ren Yuanzi's body.
However, none of the sword marks managed to injure Ren Yuanzi's vital points. They merely broke through his defense, allowing some Sword Qi to penetrate his body, and nothing more. They ultimately failed to leave any real damage.
However, this scene, witnessed by countless experts below, was utterly shocking. Each of them gaped, staring blankly at the white-clad figure who was suppressing the Yuan Gate Sect Leader.
Life Profound Realm, coupled with minor Immortal Symbol Master attainment—with such strength, he was directly beating the dignified Yuan Gate Sect Leader, a Revolving Wheel Realm expert. Such power was simply shattering their understanding of the world.
"Bang!"
With a clap of his palms, Ren Yuanzi trapped the sword blade between his palms. His thick Origin Power directly restricted the long sword in Lin Xuan's hand, preventing it from moving within his grasp.
But just as Ren Yuanzi wanted to use this opportunity to counterattack, Lin Xuan twisted his left wrist, rotated the Sword Sheath, and raised his hand, directly thrusting the end of the Sword Sheath towards Ren Yuanzi's chest.
"Bang!"
The surging energy erupted the moment the end of the Sword Sheath landed on Ren Yuanzi's chest. The violent power burst forth, blasting open the robes on Ren Yuanzi's chest, while the fierce Sword Qi directly invaded Ren Yuanzi's body.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of blood instantly spewed from Ren Yuanzi's mouth. The sharp pain from his chest made Ren Yuanzi's expression fierce, but he forcibly endured it. Following Lin Xuan's force, he wanted to fly backward.
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed, and he twisted his right wrist. The sword blade, originally firmly clamped by Ren Yuanzi, actually began to rotate. Detecting Lin Xuan's movement, Ren Yuanzi's eyes hardened, and he didn't resist. The next moment, a miserable scream echoed in the sky above the plaza.
"Ah!"
Below, everyone watched the figure flying backward, their dazed expressions replaced by shock. Ren Yuanzi had actually been defeated!
Tian Yuanzi and Di Yuanzi directly broke away from Ying Xuanzi and the Taiqing Palace Palace Master upon hearing the sound, arriving beside Ren Yuanzi to protect him.
Ren Yuanzi, standing up, felt the intense pain coming from his hands, as well as the bone-piercing Sword Qi within his body. His gaze towards Lin Xuan became increasingly sinister, but he didn't lash out.
This scene made Bo Xuan, who was already preparing to act, sigh with regret in his heart.
If Ren Yuanzi had truly erupted, Bo Xuan would have been able to seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Ren Yuanzi while everyone was off guard, at least severing one of his arms. That way, there would be evidence, but alas...
Lin Xuan flicked the long sword in his hand, and fresh blood splattered directly onto the ground. He looked directly at Tian Yuanzi and the other three Yuan Gate Sect Leaders in the distance, and said coldly.
"Now, is Lin Xuan qualified to kill those who deserve to be killed?"
"The Sword Saint's strength is formidable. My Yuan Gate has no objections to the ownership of this Ancient Battlefield."
After hearing Lin Xuan's words, even Tian Yuanzi, who had extremely strong self-control, couldn't help but curse in his heart. He was afraid that if he didn't curse in his heart, he really wouldn't be able to hold it in. This damned rock in the latrine was truly disgusting—not only was it incredibly smelly, but it was also extremely hard.
After twitching his face, Tian Yuanzi finally managed to squeeze out a seemingly hypocritical smile, and said with a smile.
"However, whether you can kill, and who kills whom, depends on the Sword Saint's ability. Although the power of the Ancient Battlefield is not bad, it is ultimately not your own. You must be careful when you leave the Ancient Battlefield!"
"I didn't expect that you would also understand such a principle, making Lin Xuan feel ashamed!"
Seeing Lin Xuan, who was always taciturn, scolding the people of Yuan Gate so harshly today, even the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace was slightly startled. Immediately, taking advantage of this gap, she quickly spoke to change the subject, otherwise, she was really afraid that Lin Xuan would enrage the three people from Yuan Gate, and then those three guys would block people on the road.
"Alright, everyone, today is the final battle of the Hundred Dynasty War. However, in my opinion, the champion of this Hundred Dynasty War should be beyond doubt, right?"
As the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace spoke, everyone's eyes once again converged on Lin Xuan. This champion of the Hundred Dynasty War was definitely the most unquestionable and the strongest in history.
Moreover, after this, whether there will be a Hundred Dynasty War is uncertain, after all, the Ancient Battlefield already has an owner.
Wu Dao Old Man below, seeing that it was finally coming to an end, couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. After noticing Lin Dong not far away, he directly took Ying Huanhuan and walked over.
"Lin Dong, did you tell the Sword Saint about our Dao Sect inviting him?"
After hearing Wu Dao Old Man's words, Lin Dong's face instantly became embarrassed, because he just remembered that he had forgotten about this matter. At that time, he was only focused on listening to Young Clan Leader and Yan talking about those shocking secrets about the Ancient Eight Rulers.
Seeing Lin Dong's embarrassed expression, Wu Dao Old Man instantly understood. This unreliable guy must have forgotten. Ying Huanhuan, who was standing next to him, glared with a pair of bright eyes and said to Lin Dong with dissatisfaction.
"What is wrong with you, junior brother? If that cold-faced guy is snatched away by other super sects, this senior sister will definitely settle the score with you, hmph!"
"Alright, Huan Huan!"
Seeing this, Wu Dao Old Man quickly pulled Ying Huanhuan, but after seeing Ying Huanhuan, Wu Dao Old Man had a flash of inspiration in his mind and quickly said in a low voice.
"Huan Huan, why don't you go and invite him? Just now, the Sword Saint personally saved you."
"Ah, me?"
After hearing Wu Dao Old Man's words, the girl's mind was in a flurry, and she didn't know how to answer.
At this time, after confirming Lin Xuan's identity as the champion of the Hundred Dynasty War, Ying Xuanzi glanced at the three Tian Yuanzi opposite him, and then glanced at the few guys hidden in the dark, chuckled, and took the initiative to step forward and said.
"I am Ying Xuanzi, I have met Sword Saint. Just now, Sword Saint rescued my little girl. Ying Xuanzi thanks you here. I wonder if Sword Saint is interested in joining my Dao Sect? All the secrets of my Dao Sect are available for Sword Saint to read. Of course, even if Sword Saint does not agree, it doesn't matter. Ying Xuanzi will remember this kindness in his heart. If Sword Saint is interested, you can take any three martial arts from my Dao Sect, as long as they are not spread!"
"Hiss!"
As soon as Ying Xuanzi spoke, the sound of gasping for air above the entire square was like a wave, one after another.
Putting aside such a generous offer, just Ying Xuanzi's attitude towards Lin Xuan was completely on par with his peers. That was a Revolving Wheel Realm powerhouse, but he was actually treating a Life Profound Realm... However, if it was the Sword Saint, it seemed that there was no problem. The Sword Saint had defeated Revolving Wheel Realm before.
As for that generous offer, even the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace, who was traveling Together, was shocked by Ying Xuanzi's generosity. Not only was the condition that martial arts could be chosen at will, but also gave Lin Xuan a transcendent status, completely inviting another Sect Leader to join.
