A black-clothed figure quietly appeared not far away, the black robe concealing his face, but that icy fluctuation instantly enveloped the entire crimson forest.
"Yao Ling!"
Ying Huanhuan's pupils slightly constricted. She hadn't expected this guy to arrive so quickly. Or perhaps, he had arrived long ago, but used some special secret method to conceal his aura.
After all, she wasn't the Ice Master right now. Although her perception had improved somewhat due to her use of Origin Power, it still couldn't compare to that guy.
"Even Yao Ling has come personally!"
The faces of Yuan Fang and the other Dao Sect disciples also turned grave. A top expert of the Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm was different from an Eight Yuan Nirvana Realm expert. Especially Yao Ling, a Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm expert who had broken through many years ago, had basically succeeded in condensing his Nascent Soul. The difference in strength between him and an Eight Yuan Nirvana Realm expert was enormous.
Lin Dong, on the other hand, didn't show much worry when he looked at Yao Ling. Instead, a fiery fighting spirit rose up, and a rather gentle power was gradually recovering within his body.
"Boss!"
When Su Lei and the other experts of the Demon Seal Crowd saw Yao Ling appear, joy appeared on their faces.
Yao Ling ignored Su Lei and the others, and instead focused his gaze on Ying Huanhuan and Lin Dong. He slowly raised his head, revealing the pale and sinister face beneath his black robe to everyone. His gaze fell on Ying Huanhuan, and he said in an inquiring tone.
"Lady Lin?"
As he spoke, Yao Ling turned his gaze to Lin Dong, chuckled softly, and spoke again.
"You must be Lin Dong, the newly promoted personal disciple of the Desolate Hall, right? The clansman from that small clan called the Lin Clan? That Sky Demon Marten and that Sky Demon Tiger, they're your brothers, right?"
Yao Ling's words made Lin Dong's brow furrow slightly, and a slight change appeared on his face. He hadn't expected Yao Ling to recognize the unknown him, and moreover, he seemed to be very familiar with his identity.
Also, Yao Ling even mentioned Little Marten and Little Flame...
Under Lin Dong's gaze, Yao Ling chuckled, waved his hand at Su Lei behind him, and had a group of Demon Seal Crowd experts surround Lin Dong and the others. Then, he turned his head and threatened the Fire Crystal Ape King.
"Fire Crystal Ape King, if you retreat now, I can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, once I've dealt with these two, your good days will probably be over!"
The Fire Crystal Ape King's face sank slightly, and a hint of ferocity appeared on his already fierce face. And when he heard the words Sky Demon Marten and Sky Demon Tiger, a flash of fear flashed in those ferocious beast eyes. Immediately afterwards, as if encouraged by something, he even took a few steps forward.
"Yao Ling, this place is Dao Sect territory. Aren't you afraid that Dao Sect experts will arrive and eliminate you for trespassing like this?"
Yuan Fang snorted coldly, stepped forward, and took the initiative to speak. But Yao Ling sneered when he heard this, and replied.
"Don't use Dao Sect to pressure me. Others may be afraid of your Dao Sect, but I'm not."
"Yes, the people of Yuan Gate are naturally not afraid of our Dao Sect. However, I have to say, your Yuan Gate's methods are really despicable. A dignified super sect actually has to send some experts to do such shady things."
Ying Huanhuan responded with a sneer, causing Yao Ling's pupils to slightly condense. He didn't say anything, but the next moment, an extremely strong power erupted from his body. He actually stretched out a claw, directly wanting to attack Ying Huanhuan.
Ying Huanhuan reacted extremely quickly. Almost at the instant Yao Ling moved, she quickly retreated. Just as her figure disappeared, Yao Ling's large hand immediately appeared where Ying Huanhuan had been standing before, tearing that afterimage apart.
Seeing that his sudden sneak attack had not succeeded, a look of surprise couldn't help but flash in Yao Ling's eyes. But immediately afterwards, a sinister look appeared on his face, and he said with a sneer.
"Escape? Heh heh, last time, the Sword Saint killed my friend. Today, I will kill you to avenge Liu Tong. I imagine, the Sword Saint will be in unbearable pain, right?"
At this time, Yuan Fang and the others finally reacted. However, what Yuan Fang and the others didn't expect was that Lin Dong actually took a step forward, stood at the very front, and said to Yuan Fang and the others behind him.
"Senior sister, just leave him to me!"
Ying Huanhuan felt the special fluctuations in Lin Dong's body, and nodded slightly in response.
"If you can't hold on, retreat. I have my own methods!"
"Hmph, since you like to act tough, then I'll kill you first! Attack!"
Yao Ling, looking at Lin Dong who had taken the initiative to block in front of him, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he shouted violently at Su Lei and the others behind him. At the same time, the Origin Power within Yao Ling's body also burst out suddenly, heading straight for Lin Dong.
Seeing this, Lin Dong did not show any weakness. The powerful energy within his body continuously gathered on his arm. Moreover, to Lin Dong's surprise, the power Yan gave him did not bring him too much pressure. Instead, it felt as smooth as using his own limbs.
Immediately, the fighting spirit in Lin Dong's heart became even higher. His eyes fixed on Yao Ling, who was rushing towards him, and he raised his hand and pointed out a finger.
"Hmph, enough nonsense, take my finger first, Great Desolate Imprisoning Sky Finger, one finger imprisons heaven and earth!"
As Lin Dong pointed out, a vast amount of energy quickly gathered in front of him, condensing into a thick, ancient yellow giant finger. Apart from its size, the giant finger was no different from a human finger, with the circles of fingerprints clearly visible.
However, as the finger descended, those circles of fingerprints seemed to come alive. In Yao Ling's eyes, those circles of fingerprints had now turned into circles, as if to imprison him in place.
Yao Ling's face suddenly changed when he saw this, completely abandoning his previous casual expression. The Origin Power within his body burst out again, and then, he slapped his palm towards the giant finger.
"Boom!"
The vast Origin Power collided with the giant finger, and a huge wave of Origin Power instantly erupted, causing Su Lei, Yuan Fang, and the others to turn their heads to look.
In the next moment, the Dao Sect disciples like Yuan Fang were overjoyed, and the Fire Crystal Ape King roared excitedly. Then, he directly commanded a group of Fire Crystal Demon Apes to attack Su Lei and the others.
Under that finger, the giant palm of Origin Power supported for a while before being directly crushed, causing the faces of Su Lei and the other members of the Demon Seal Crowd to change instantly. Then, facing the attacking Fire Crystal Ape King and others, their expressions became even more solemn.
Yao Ling's face darkened. He did not expect that Lin Dong, who seemed to be only at the Five Yuan Nirvana Realm, could unleash such powerful strength. Moreover, the energy within his body was very strange. Although it did not seem strong, it was particularly condensed. When fighting, the consumption was far less than his Origin Power.
However, that was all it was!
Powerful Origin Power gathered again on his palms. Then, Yao Ling slapped out several palms in succession, and several huge palms of Origin Power bombarded the ancient yellow giant finger one after another.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Under Yao Ling's several palms, the huge ancient yellow giant finger was finally shattered.
Lin Dong looked at the dissipating giant finger, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He had not expected that the energy Yan gave him would be so powerful. It seemed to be only a Seven Yuan Nirvana Realm Origin Power fluctuation, but it felt even more condensed than Yao Ling's Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm Origin Power.
"You kid, use it sparingly. This is the last bit of power left in that Demon Emperor Armor. Only by using your Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art can this power be maximized."
As if discerning Lin Dong's thoughts, Yan's distressed voice sounded in Lin Dong's heart, causing Lin Dong to quickly extinguish his plan to continue using the Great Desolate Imprisoning Sky Finger.
In the next instant, the Heavenly Dragon aura and the gentle power within his body instantly flowed through his flesh and blood. Then, Lin Dong's exposed skin was directly replaced by azure dragon scales, followed by a layer of fine scales.
Not only that, under the gentle power, Lin Dong felt a little itchy on his back, as if something was about to grow out. Soon, the sound of clothes being torn rang out.
"Tear!"
"Whoosh!"
As something flapped behind him, Lin Dong also saw a pair of huge Azure Dragon wings protruding from his back, slowly swinging back and forth on both sides of his body.
Vaguely, Lin Dong felt as if there was a force of wind supporting his body, making his body lighter and faster. At the same time, Lin Dong could also feel that there was a powerful force on the pair of Azure Dragon wings.
Lin Dong's sudden change directly shocked Yao Ling. His eyes fixed on this strange young man, and a hint of unease flashed in Yao Ling's heart. Lin Dong's huge change made Yao Ling want to fight quickly and end the battle quickly.
But before Yao Ling could launch an attack, Lin Dong's mind moved, and the pair of huge Azure Dragon wings behind him vibrated, turning his whole body into an azure stream of light, heading straight for Yao Ling.
Looking at Lin Dong rushing towards him, Yao Ling's pupils shrank slightly. In the next moment, he saw a hideous fist wrapped in azure dragon scales constantly magnifying in his eyes.
"Hmph! Courting death!"
Seeing that Lin Dong dared to take the initiative to attack, Yao Ling's face instantly darkened. Immediately, he also stretched out a fist, meeting Lin Dong's azure dragon fist, and smashed down fiercely.
"Bang!"
The two fists, containing immense power, collided fiercely. At that instant, two equally vast forces erupted simultaneously. Subsequently, two powerful rebounding forces transmitted into the bodies of Lin Dong and Yao Ling respectively, shaking both of them back at the same time.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
Yao Ling, who took several steps in the air, stared at Lin Dong, who was also retreating several steps, with a hint of shock flashing in his eyes. He had never imagined that Lin Dong could actually contend with him without falling into a disadvantage.
It should be known that previously, Lin Dong had used martial arts to deal with his casual strike, only then was he able to gain the upper hand. But now, after Lin Dong used this special body refining martial art, his strength seemed to have improved again.
"Boy, you've angered me!"
A hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes, followed by a touch of ferocity appearing in Yao Ling's eyes. He could no longer allow Lin Dong to delay any longer. If he could not capture Lin Dong and the others, then when the Dao Sect experts arrived, he would definitely be liquidated.
After his sinister gaze locked onto Lin Dong, Yao Ling reached out with both hands, then transformed several strange hand seals in front of him. As Yao Ling's hand seals changed, the Origin Power of heaven and earth around him actually began to ripple, and a suffocating fluctuation spread to the surroundings.
"To be able to die under my Yuan Gate's top martial art, you will have enough to be proud of even in death!"
A cruel look appeared on Yao Ling's face, causing Lin Dong's heart to skip a beat. His gaze was fixed on Yao Ling, who he was facing, and his body, wrapped in azure dragon scales, also tensed up.
Under Lin Dong's gaze, the violent and boundless Origin Power within Yao Ling's body erupted instantly. Immediately, Lin Dong was shocked to find that Yao Ling's body actually began to swell continuously. His muscles writhed, and the veins, like small snakes, moved around.
"Demon Origin Curse Body!"
Yao Ling shouted in a deep voice. As his body began to expand, the pain of muscle tearing made Yao Ling's face even more ferocious and cruel. The look in his eyes towards Lin Dong was filled with a beast's brutality and cruelty, as if he wanted to crush Lin Dong bit by bit.
Looking at Yao Ling's constantly expanding body, Lin Dong's pupils shrank violently. He saw that on the surface of Yao Ling's body, there were actually ancient black runes, gradually drilling out of his body, as if those things had originally been sleeping in Yao Ling's body, and at this moment, at Yao Ling's call, they crawled out one by one, incomparably strange.
In just a few breaths, Yao Ling's body had actually expanded by a full two times, looking like a small giant. His body was covered in strange black runes, coupled with those ferocious scarlet eyes, he was like a ferocious barbarian, filled with a brutal and ruthless aura.
His scarlet eyes stared intently at Lin Dong, and a cruel arc slowly appeared on Yao Ling's face. Then, he stomped his foot in the air, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
Lin Dong, who had been watching Yao Ling, narrowed his eyes the moment Yao Ling's figure disappeared. The next moment, a pair of huge Azure Dragon wings vibrated, and his figure instantly turned around. He raised his right hand, carrying terrifying power, and slammed it fiercely into the void behind him.
In the originally empty space, a huge black figure suddenly appeared, and a huge fist smashed towards the fist wrapped in azure dragon scales.
"Bang!"
Two fists, one large and one small, collided with each other, and the violent power instantly vented to the surroundings. The powerful energy fluctuations instantly blasted Lin Dong away.
Lin Dong, who was blasted away, flapped his Azure Dragon wings a few times, and immediately stabilized his figure. He looked up at Yao Ling, who was extremely fierce, and a few more traces of apprehension appeared in Lin Dong's eyes.
"Hehe, continue to hide!"
Yao Ling sneered and wanted to continue attacking, but at this moment, strange zither sounds suddenly came from the side, causing Yao Ling's face to change slightly.
"Dong! Dong!"
As soon as the strange zither sound entered his ears, Yao Ling felt a strange force invading his body, causing his Demon Origin Curse Body to have a tendency to collapse faintly.
"Humph!"
Yao Ling snorted coldly, and the boundless Origin Power in his body shook. Immediately, the strange black ancient runes on the surface of his body actually began to move strangely, forming a special protective film on the surface of his body, making it difficult for all the zither sounds to penetrate into it.
Seeing this, Lin Dong no longer hesitated, and directly waved his fists, attacking Yao Ling. The azure dragon scales cut through the sky, and because of the rapid speed, it even rubbed out bursts of sonic booms.
Faced with Lin Dong's fist attack, Yao Ling quickly calmed his mind, and once again waved his fist, colliding head-on with Lin Dong. Ying Huanhuan, who was on the side, cooperated with Yan's power, using the zither sound to continuously contain Yao Ling.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With Yan's help, coupled with Ying Huanhuan's containment, Lin Dong directly fought Yao Ling back and forth, fist to fist, every punch causing immense pressure on Yao Ling.
On the other side, the Dao Sect's Earth Hall and Flood Hall's direct disciples, along with Yuan Fang and others, plus the assistance of the Fire Crystal Ape King's group, were directly overwhelming the Demon Seal Crowd's group. The absolute advantage in numbers and strength was completely a guaranteed victory at this moment. If the Demon Seal Crowd's group weren't all desperadoes, ruthless and merciless, they would probably have already been defeated.
But even so, the Demon Seal Crowd's experts were in dire straits facing the Dao Sect's group's attacks.
"Bang!"
After Yuan Fang's palm was blocked and repelled by Su Lei, before Su Lei could even take a breather, the Fire Crystal Ape King stirred up a gust of fishy wind and directly attacked Su Lei's face.
"Roar! You bastard born from a female monkey, die for this king!"
Having just repelled Yuan Fang, Su Lei's expression changed upon seeing the Fire Crystal Ape King's sudden attack. He hurriedly mobilized the Origin Power within his body to defend, but how could the Origin Power mobilized in haste compare to the Fire Crystal Ape King's terrifying power?
"Boom!"
The instant the Fire Crystal Ape King's huge beast palm landed on Su Lei's palm, an extremely terrifying energy erupted, directly shattering the Origin Power Su Lei had mobilized. Then, carrying formidable power, it slammed fiercely onto Su Lei's chest.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of blood instantly spurted from Su Lei's mouth. In the next moment, Su Lei's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
Seeing this, Yuan Fang's gaze turned cold in an instant. Forcibly mobilizing the Origin Power within her body, she didn't give the other Demon Seal Crowd's experts a chance to rescue Su Lei. She directly closed in, and then, in Su Lei's terrified gaze, she slammed a palm fiercely towards Su Lei's Dantian.
"Boom!"
Formidable Origin Power fluctuations erupted from Su Lei's body, which was completely defenseless. The terrifying power that erupted directly shattered Su Lei's Nirvana Golden Body. At the same time, the remaining force directly pierced through Su Lei's Dantian in an instant.
