Lin Xun was overjoyed!

It was the first time he had encountered such a strong individual from the same generation since attaining the supreme path.

His fighting spirit exploded like an erupting volcano as he cast aside all thoughts of keeping a low profile and circulated his full power to directly clash against the opponent.

Boom!

His punches became heavier, and his swings grew wider, seemingly capable of splitting mountains and the seas, and breaking heaven and earth. They were accompanied by the cries of dragons and phoenixes as their power rippled through the area with earth-shaking momentum.

It was the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art!

At this moment, Lin Xun was akin to an invincible king who stood at the pinnacle of an entire cultivation stage. He struck with boldness, ferocity, and disdain as if he was the sole sovereign who towered over all of existence.

Divine light flickered in the black-dress girls eyes. She never imagined that there would be someone in the Fire Spirit Province who could call himself a king in the Heaven Ascension stage. The overwhelming aura he gave off felt simply unrivaled.

Moreover, he was so young! It was almost unheard of!

"Hmph, is that all you have? If so, you will be beaten so badly today that you won't be able to lift your head!"

The black-dress girl snorted, attempting to trigger Lin Xun to see his true limits and the extent of his potential.

Meanwhile, she glowed as a divine halo appeared behind her head, which resembled a small divine world surrounded by swirling divine radiance.

It was terrifying secret art that had the power to subdue heaven and earth and refine all living things.

Inside the divine halo, one could see a true dragon swimming in the cosmos, a great phoenix dancing across the nine heavens, a black tortoise subduing an azure sea, a vermilion bird burning the sky, and many other infinitely horrifying sights.

Mysterious indistinct chanting spread from the divine halo, sounding as if the saints were chanting sutras to impart knowledge to the masses. It filled the surroundings with a vast holy aura that seemed to cover the entire sky as it crashed down toward Lin Xun.

Strong!

Lin Xun's heart shuddered. He could feel an overwhelmingly oppressive power loom at him, making him feel as if he was about to be bound and suppressed.

However, he wasnt alarmed but instead elated. His battle intent burned even harder, and his blood boiled in excitement as he gave off an aura of unshakable confidence.

Boom!

His black hair danced around him, and his black eyes dazzled like a surging abyss as his aura grew increasingly ethereal and transcendent.

Mountain Smashing Destruction, Sea Splitting Destruction, Emptiness Destruction, Soul Shattering Destruction, Dragon Destruction, Phoenix Destruction, Prison Suppressing Destruction, Sky Devouring Destruction, All-Spirits Destruction...

The essence of the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art pulsed at his fingertips and was unleashed. For a time, the arena was completely filled with a horrifying destructive power as if the end of the world had arrived.

It was far too difficult to encounter such an opponent. As such, Lin Xun fully immersed himself in the battle, forgetting about everything else.

The only thing left in him was the desire to fight.

Even his heart and mind were already filled with a burning fighting spirit!

"Remarkable, is this what they call invincible among those of the same cultivation stage? Could he have touched the threshold of the supreme path and comprehended a wisp of the kings truth?"

The black-dress girl was inwardly shaken as her eyes flashed in astonishment. One must know that it had been a very long time since she had encountered such a battle.

None of her past opponents had lasted until this point. Furthermore, he wasnt falling behind in the slightest!

This ignited the black-dress girls fighting spirit. With the battle for the great age gradually approaching, it was very lucky for her to meet such an opponent.

She was rapidly engulfed in a holy aura as she brightly glowed like an immortal descending from the heavenly realm. She was the very picture of grace and untouchable transcendence.

Boom!

The defensive array around the stage soon hit its limit and exploded with a loud boom, causing a terrifying wave of destructive energies to unfurl.

Alarmed and panicked voices erupted in the martial arena as the originally mesmerized cultivators quickly fled like mice.

How frightening!

It should be known that the arenas defensive array could withstand the power of Cyclic Derivation experts. However, it had now been broken...

Wouldn't this mean that the two duelists had the power to suppress Cyclic Derivation experts?

"My god! Arent they way too ferocious? Many cultivators were completely dumbstruck.

"How magnificent. This is perhaps something that only the top supreme heaven prides can attain! Several older-generation cultivators hearts were trembling. Even people like them were deeply amazed and shocked.

Such an unrivaled match was most definitely unprecedented and was a duel for the ages.

"Big Brother Lin Xun, beat her! yelled Xia Xiaochong as she waved her fists, clearly excited and caught up in the heat of the moment.

Swish!

In the arena, the black-dress girl suddenly appeared in the sky. Her eyes flashed as she looked down at Lin Xun, "Dare to come up and fight?"

Although the arena was large, it felt somewhat restrictive for an expert of her level. If she were to fight without abandon, it would likely cause unimaginable destruction.

"As you wish!"

Lin Xun laughed heartily, sharing the same opinion. In a flash, his figure also appeared among the clouds.

Rumble!

A divine radiance spread, accompanied by a terrifying rumble that made it feel as if thunder was booming across the nine heavens.

The two fighters were once again locked in battle.

In the Pine Smoke Martial Arena, the watching cultivators were aghast. They looked up, but could only barely make out some traces that a battle was occurring in the sky. It was far too dazzling as if it was a sacred clash between gods that mere mortals were unable to behold.

Some of the older-generation cultivators tried to use their spirit sense, but didnt dare to probe too deeply as they were afraid that they would be hurt by the crazily surging killing intent amidst the clouds.

By this juncture, other parts of the city had also been alerted to the disturbance.

After all, the battle was so great that it had moved to the sky, making it impossible to hide.

"What's that?"

"My god! Could there be gods fighting up there?"

On the busy streets of the Flame Capital, many people and cultivators immediately took notice, causing a commotion to break out.

The scene was pure terror to behold. In the sky, clouds rapidly crumbled as devastating divine light spilled everywhere while horrifying collision sounds akin to thunderclaps boomed across the nine heavens.

Amidst it all, indistinct roars that sounded as if they originated from dragons, tigers, gods, and demons echoed across the air. The dreadful noise made everyones hearts tremble and feel a choking pressure.

It was as if gods were brawling in the sky without bothering to restrain their almighty power!

"Hurry! A battle of the ages is occurring at the Pine Smoke Martial Arena. You cant miss it!"

"Over there!"

As the most prosperous city in the Fire Spirit Province, the Flame Capital naturally encompassed a vast area.

Despite this, the battle in the sky still managed to draw the attention of cultivators who were spread out across the citys many districts.

If one were to look down from above, they would be treated to the spectacular sight of countless figures approaching Pine Smoke Martial Arena from all directions.

"Hey, where are you going?"

At the Flame Capital Martial Arena, a cultivator had finally gathered his courage and stepped onto the stage, only to find that Fang Linhan had suddenly jumped off instead. It was a show of complete disregard that left the cultivator feeling very humiliated.

"Hehe, cant accept it?"

Fang Linhan displayed a carefree smile and swung his palm at the stage. The cultivator on the stage could not react in time and was swatted away like a fly.

"This sucks. Why cant I meet a decent opponent?"

Fang Linhan peered at the sky far away where an earth-shaking duel was unfolding. He was amazed, but also could not help from feeling envious. If he could fight either one of them, this trip would be more than worth it!

Swoosh!

Without hesitation, he rushed toward the Pine Smoke Martial Arena, curious to find out who the two duelists were.

"Eh? Should I go back to the inn first to inform my good brother Lin so we can watch together?"

Along the way, Fang Linhan suddenly remembered something. A duel like this was far too rare and should be between two peerless experts. It would be a sin to miss it.

"Hmm, given that guys capability, he should have noticed long ago. Yup, it would only be superfluous of me to rush back to try and inform him."

Fang Linhan recalled the memory of Lin Xun killing two black-clothed Cyclic Derivation experts, causing him to shake his head and continue on his way.

Pine Smoke Martial Arena.

Mo Feng trembled as he tightly clenched his fists and stared at the sky. He could vaguely make out a youngster who resembled a demon god displaying his almighty and overwhelming strength.

His heart was filled with fear and frustration.

"Hes even more powerful than I imagined. I think even Yue Jianming cant compare...

"Did master return to the sect to ask for reinforcements because he realized how strong he is?"

It was impossible to describe Mo Fengs current emotions. Was making such a person an enemy the correct choice?

It was a question he could not answer.

Crash~

Suddenly, the old woman in green moved. She summoned a jade Ruyi scepter and raised it into the air, sprinkling light around her. The light rose upwards, creating a screen that covered the sky.

The sky immediately stopped rippling as the aftershocks from the battle were neutralized by some invisible force.

Upon seeing this, the old woman breathed a sigh of relief. Due to the intensity of the battle, the aftershocks would destroy the entire area if they were allowed to continue spreading.

It would be disastrous if such a thing happened in the populated Flame Capital.

"The Young Miss has finally met a proper opponent. I wonder how long that youngster will last...

The old woman appeared very composed. She knew the extent of the black-dress girls foundations and thus had absolute confidence in her.

In the sky, Lin Xun moved like a young ruler in the making as his combat power continued to rise, and his qi flared like a boiling sea.

His cultivation had been stuck at the Heaven Ascension stage for far too long. He had been polishing his martial dao for the past few days in order to achieve a certain state of perfection that would allow him to step into the supreme path Cyclic Derivation stage!

The duel with the black-dress girl was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Lin Xun to polish his martial dao. Hence, there was no way he was going to easily give it up.

Meanwhile, the black-dress girl was unable to remain calm when she sensed the changes in Lin Xuns combat power.

Who is this amazing person? Why have I never heard of him before?
