The black-dress girl was about to go crazy from humiliation and anger as a murderous impulse filled her mind.

She had always been revered as an immortal fairy who stood far above the ordinary. Her status in the West Infinity World was basically untouchable, and no one dared to show even the slightest disrespect toward her.

However, one of her most private, sensitive, and embarrassing parts had been touched by the other partys back during battle, leaving her in complete disbelief.

To make things even more awkward, the force that struck her plump, full-moon-like buttocks had been very large, causing her to be sent flying in a very embarrassing posture.

There was a burning pain in her behind, and it felt as if it was about to break. However, the pain was nothing compared to the embarrassment she felt. Her fair, snow-white skin had become red as a tomato, and her beautiful face was flushed red with anger and embarrassment. It was simply unimaginable, and she refused to accept it.

How dare this damn bastard be so shameless?!

No matter how virtuous or tolerant she may be, there was already no stopping her rage at this moment.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun was feeling a little puzzled. His senses were naturally very sharp at his cultivation level, and he immediately felt that something was off about the attack.

That felt...really soft and bouncy...it cant have been...

Lin Xun's heart thudded loudly, realizing that something really bad had happened. He didnt need to turn his head to know that there were a pair of eyes staring daggers at him because the terrifying killing intent was already making his heart shiver.

Shit!

Lin Xun knew there was a misunderstanding, but also understood there was no way to explain himself.

Swish!

Lin Xun instinctively activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step and abruptly slipped away as if his soles had been oiled.

He was feeling a little guilty and decisively decided to escape, stupefying the watching cultivators with his speed.

"ARGH..." In the sky, the black-dress girl grew increasingly triggered upon seeing this. She released an enraged scream, unable to restrain the anger and killing intent in her heart.

Rumble!

Her hair tie snapped, releasing her long black hair as earth-shaking killing intent violently pulsed from her body and spread outwards.

Her eyes were filled with murder. How could that abominable bastard dare try to escape after humiliating her? It was a show of complete disregard!

In this very moment, she became akin to an erupting super volcano. A terrifying aura spread, filling the watching cultivators with horror and fear.

Scary, too scary!

It felt like the thunderous divine rage of an immortal fairy that was certain to result in a calamity.

"The tigers behind cannot be touched, let alone a tigress. Big Brother Lin Xun has signed his own death warrant."

Xia Xiaochong's innocent-looking face was filled with awe. She was in admiration of Lin Xun's courage. It was as if he wasnt afraid of death.

"Eh, that guy looks rather familiar. Why do I feel as if he bears some resemblance to my good brother Lin?

Fang Linhan had finally arrived only to miss the crazy battle. Instead, he saw Lin Xun scurrying away like a rat, but was unable to identify him due to his speed.

Eh, something seems off. That black-dress lass also looks familiar and seems to be..."

Fang Linhan was stunned again when he looked at the fuming figure in the sky. Soon after, he fiercely shook his head, "It cant be her. The rumors describe her as an immortal fairy from legend. How could she display such a terrifying, enraged side like this lady, their characters are completely different...

Unfortunately, before Fang Linhan could get a better look, the black-dress girl was grabbed by a green-clothed old woman, and the two of them quickly disappeared.

This made Fang Linhan's heart jump in alarm as he realized how terrifying the old woman was. Even if she wasnt a true King stage expert yet, she wasnt far from it!

"How regretful, I cant believe I missed such an unparalleled duel..." Fang Linhan inwardly sighed. He could not help but feel a little dejected that he had yet to encounter a worthy opponent.

The fight that had suddenly broken out and ended just as suddenly left everyone in a somewhat dumbstruck state.

However, news of it soon spread to the entire Flame Capital like a storm. At the rate it was going, people suspected that it would also reach the rest of the thousand-plus cities in the Fire Spirit Province in no time at all.

After all, it was genuinely all too amazing and shocking.

Two supreme heaven prides, a demon-god-like youngster and a holy immortal-fairy-like girl wearing a black dress, had an epic duel in the sky above the Flame Capital, drawing nearly everyones attention. It was easy to imagine the splashes such an event would cause.

It was a battle of the ages, and something like this had never occurred in the Flame Capital before.

"Thats the greatness of supreme heaven prides. The power they wield has long surpassed the others from their generation and reached a pinnacle that no other practitioner at the same cultivation stage can attain!"

Many people sighed in amazement. By now, most people already knew that an unprecedented battle of the great age was coming, which was destined to become the stage for these true heaven prides to shine.

When it arrived, thousands of heaven prides would rise up and vie for supremacy. It would be a grand event that ordinary cultivators would not be able to participate in.

"Maybe only outstanding individuals like the young man and young lady from today would have the qualifications to compete when the battle of the great age arrives."

Some older-generation experts sighed emotionally, deeply touched by the duel they had witnessed today.

"This battle is sure to shake the entire West Infinity World. I wonder who they are and which factions they come from."

Numerous cultivators speculated about Lin Xuns and the black-dress girls identities. Unfortunately, his face was too unfamiliar and they were unable to identify him.

The black-dress girl was also unidentifiable due to the silver mask that concealed most of her face.

However, this only served to make the duo appear increasingly mysterious.

Their only hope was that when news of this battle spread to the entire West Infinity World, the duo would be recognized and their identities revealed!

At night, the Flame Capital was as bustling and noisy as usual.

The only noticeable difference was that many girls were wearing silver masks, making them look rather mysterious.

In fact, even some of the men had donned similar masks.

At various corners of the streets, vendors from the Azure Flower-Monster Clan were selling Mirage Flowers.

It was a peculiar palm-sized flower with six petals. When worn on the face, it could be transformed into any type of mask the wearer wanted.

In fact, the mask worn by the black-dress girl from the duel earlier in the day was created by this very same Mirage Flower.

Although her identity was still unknown, her dazzling performance swiftly popularized her iconic silver mask design.

Several youngsters had become huge fans of the black-dress girl and began wearing these masks in honor of her, starting a new trend in the Flame Capital.

This was the influence of the strong. As a result, the Azure Flower-Monster Clan that produced the Mirage Flowers became the biggest winner and took advantage of the opportunity to earn lots of money.

In a single night, the flowers, which could previously be purchased for three low-grade aeth essences, jumped to an insane price of thirty low-grade aeth essences!

"Crooks! Lin Xun cursed. He was currently also wearing one of these silver masks.

"Hmph, if you dont want it, take it off and give it to me." Xia Xiaochong reached out and tried to grab at Lin Xun's face. She was also wearing a mask but it was black, the complete opposite of the silver mask.

"Stop playing around!" He smacked away her hand before sneakily glancing around like a thief. He lowered his voice and said, "Do you think I want to wear it? Im only wearing it because Im afraid to be recognized."

"Ha, you should see that look on your face."

Xia Xiaochong laughed and gloated, "If you didnt hit somebodys behind today, why would you be so guilty and scared of being recognized?"

Lin Xun's face darkened, "Xiaochong, this matter concerns our life and death. You promised me that you wouldnt tell anyone."

Xia Xiaochong seemed unconcerned as she replied, "Relax, I wont let anyone know. Xia Xiaochong is a woman of her word."

However, Lin Xun was still worried and reminded her, "When we return to the inn and see Fang Linhan, dont become an infatuated fool again and let it slip."

Xia Xiaochong was stunned. Her eyes soon became glazed as if recalling Fang Linhans devilishly roguish and handsome face.

Lin Xun's face turned stormy. His words were wasted on this hopeless idiot.

He secretly decided to immediately leave by himself if Xia Xiaochong's master didnt show up again tomorrow.

Since he had now mastered the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art, there were only the final two transformations of the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations left.

The eighth transformation, Chaofeng Eye, required him to venture into the wilderness deep in the mountains to study and observe the land. From there, he would be able to gradually comprehend and learn the secrets of this unique secret art.

As for the ninth transformation, he could only start working on it after first mastering the eighth transformation, Chaofeng Eye.

In addition, there was also the matter of his Dao Comprehension. However, Lin Xun wasnt worried because his Water Dao Ripple had already reached a state of perfection and only lacked a single opportunity before it would undergo a metamorphosis and ascend to the Water Dao Meaning stage.

Only at the Dao Meaning stage would Dao power be able to display its true power.

Why were some top-tier Cyclic Derivation experts so powerful?

One of the main reasons was that they had begun to wield Dao Meaning stage power!

Of course, the average Cyclic Derivation expert was stuck at the Dao Comprehension stage like Lin Xun, unable to break through to the next realm.

The reason for this was simply that they were still lacking in aptitude and comprehension ability. For those without extraordinary aptitude and comprehension ability, it wouldnt be strange to be stuck at the Dao Comprehension stage for an entire lifetime.

"Youre finally back, Brother Lin. Did you manage to catch todays battle? Upon returning to the inn, Lin Xun found Fang Linhan already waiting there, who immediately got up at the sight of Lin Xun.

Lin Xun worriedly glanced at Xia Xiaochong, afraid she would accidentally reveal everything.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xiaochong's eyes widened as she looked at one of the other tables in the inn and cried out in a surprised and happy voice, "Master!"
