Chapter 393: I Wonder If Senior Would Allow It?

Lin Xun gripped the long spear in his hand tightly.

Lin Xun was extremely aware that the version of himself formed by lightning before him was exactly his Peak state at that time.

But now, his Realm had fallen, and his internal hidden injuries remained.

Even so, all Lin Xun thought about was how to defeat him!

As for fear and evasion, he didn’t have them before, and he wouldn’t have them now.

Fear and evasion were meaningless.

In the courtyard of Tianji City, the Medicinal Pill was undergoing its final formation.

Sikong Jing watched the two identical men in the air with focused attention.

Just by standing there, it felt as if the entire Tianji City was about to sink three inches into the ground under their Spiritual Pressure!

The Realm-fallen and injured Lin Xun was already terrifying enough.

However, Sikong Jing could deeply and clearly feel that the man formed by lightning seemed to be the Great Dao itself!

Rumor had it that when a Cultivator undergoes tribulation, the dao rhyme would preserve a phantom of the Cultivator.

In other words, the Great Dao would store the moment of your absolute Peak in life.

Could it be that the other Lin Xun in the sky right now was the Peak version of Lin Xun when he attempted to harmonize his Dao with Heaven and Earth?

So, could a Cultivator in this world really reach such a level?

A level that even the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth feared.

Boom!

In the next moment, without any warning.

The two Lin Xuns charged at each other with long spears in hand.

Above Tianji City, violent black spiritual power spread wantonly, continuously expanding in the air!

A black storm formed by spiritual power swept frantically through Tianji City.

The lightning ‘Lin Xun’ threw a spear at Lin Xun; the long spear traced a straight line of light through the air, as if it were about to tear the sky apart.

Similarly, Lin Xun also threw the dark brake in his hand.

Two streaks of black light collided, space annihilated and collapsed, and cracks in the Void Realm shattered open.

Lin Xun caught his long spear and swept it across; the black Spear Qi was like ripples on a lake’s surface, cutting towards the lightning ‘Lin Xun’.

The lightning ‘Lin Xun’ raised his arm, and the moment the black Spear Qi touched his palm, it was completely neutralized.

Conversely, time seemed to freeze in an instant.

The entirety of Tianji City turned ash-grey; everyone found themselves completely unable to move, only seeing the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ holding his long spear, walking towards Lin Xun step by step.

Reaching Lin Xun, the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ raised his long spear and thrust it towards Lin Xun’s heart!

The long spear pierced through Lin Xun’s body, and the erupting black Spear Qi was like an electromagnetic cannon, shooting through Lin Xun’s body into the distance.

Just when everyone thought Lin Xun had died.

The pierced Lin Xun gradually turned into black spiritual power and dissipated.

The moment the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ looked up, Lin Xun descended straight down with his long spear in hand!

The two long spears collided, and a tiny black hole actually appeared at the spear tips.

This was the nothingness created when the Void Realm was smashed through.

Lin Xun spun his long spear, and at the same time, the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ did the same.

The long spears shifted, both piercing through the other’s shoulder.

The two kicked each other, and Heaven and Earth trembled faintly.

When the two separated again, dark red blood was already flowing from Lin Xun’s shoulder, with black Spear Qi swirling around the wound.

The opponent was formed by lightning; the lightning tried to repair the hole in his shoulder, but Lin Xun’s Spear Qi was more like a black flame that burned everything, and that hole could no longer be mended.

However, for the lightning ‘Lin Xun’, who was originally a lifeless object, it didn’t matter anymore.

The two vanished from their spots again, disappearing into the thunderclouds.

Layer upon layer of thick thunderclouds burst and disintegrated, turning into bolts of lightning that crashed into Tianji City.

The ground struck by lightning was charred black, with stones flying everywhere.

Especially in the Tianji City Lords Manor, in the courtyard where Wang Xing was located.

In the Myriad Carp Pond, spirit fish were constantly thrashing on the lake’s surface, and many charred spirit fish were floating on the water.

A bolt of lightning struck near Zhu Ling, but she acted as if she hadn’t seen it, focusing intently on the final completion of the Medicinal Pill!

Zhu Ling was responsible for the Hundred-Flavor Grass and the fire heart lotus.

Absolutely no mistakes were allowed here.

In the sky ten thousand meters high, after hundreds of rounds, Lin Xun felt his body getting heavier and heavier.

The internal injuries were becoming increasingly dire.

Fighting against himself at his Peak.

For the first time, Lin Xun felt that he had actually been quite impressive.

But Lin Xun knew he couldn’t lose.

If he lost, then everything would be in vain.

Not only would something happen to Wang Xing, but this Heavenly Tribulation would also strike dead everyone in the Tianji City courtyard, and Zhu Ling would be in danger too.

Furthermore, although his Realm wasn’t what it used to be, and although he had been slacking off these years.

But so what if he had been slacking off?

In an instant, within the thunderclouds, patches of purple haze unfolded.

Like a fine cloth woven from purple mist, it draped over the entire sky.

Purple light shone down, and purple motes of light danced gracefully like fairies.

“Zilin Immortal Method?!”

In the courtyard, Yun Yun, who was protecting the Long sisters and Yaya, looked at the scene before her in shock.

Yun Yun wasn’t entirely sure; mainly, how could that Lin Xun have learned the supreme immortal method of the Zilin Holy Land?

If this wasn’t the Zilin Immortal Method, then what was it?

In fact, during these two or three months, Lin Xun had already completely learned it.

If an ordinary Cultivator obtained the Zilin Immortal Method, they would perhaps have to cultivate for decades or even a century before they could even gain a preliminary understanding of it.

But Lin Xun didn’t need that.

When Lin Xun learned the Myriad Demon Method back then, it only took him a year to fully master it.

And Lin Xun had seen the highest scenery, even almost harmonizing his Dao with Heaven and Earth.

Even if the harmonization failed, Lin Xun had gained a new understanding of the Great Dao.

Lin Xun’s comprehension of the Great Dao was likely at the highest point of all Cultivators in the world.

For the current Lin Xun to learn the Zilin Immortal Method, two or three months was already extremely ample.

However, Lin Xun knew that even so, it was impossible for him to truly defeat the opponent.

Compared to the Spirit Refining Realm Perfection, Lin Xun’s current ‘neither here nor there’ state—stuck between the Ascension Realm and Spirit Refining Realm—was simply too far apart.

Not to mention that Lin Xun’s body already carried a great dao injury, causing his combat power to drop by another level.

The gap between them was not something a single Zilin Immortal Method could bridge.

But although he couldn’t defeat him head-on, what about from another angle?

Lin Xun took a deep breath, and his tiger’s mouth split open, bleeding.

Bright red blood irrigated the demon spear an sha.

The dark brake was like a girl on the verge of death in the desert who had finally found an oasis, greedily drinking Lin Xun’s blood.

At the same time, Lin Xun poured all the spiritual power in his entire body into the dark brake.

Two breaths later, the dark brake felt its body filled to the brim.

In the next moment, the mist-like purple haze turned into purple butterflies, surging towards the dark brake.

The moment the purple butterflies touched the dark brake, they all turned into dark butterflies with a mix of black and red.

The dark butterflies then merged into the spear’s body.

Gradually, as hundreds and thousands of purple butterflies surged in, abstract flowing tassel engravings appeared on the body of the demon spear an sha.

Black Spear Qi and red Blood Qi intertwined, and purple dao rhyme was drawn into it like threads.

As Lin Xun gradually raised the dark brake, he felt heart-wrenching pain throughout his body!

It felt as if his body was going to split apart in the next moment!

Enduring the churning blood and the recurrence of hidden injuries.

The long spear in Lin Xun’s hand was aimed at his heart.

“Break!”

He threw the spear!

The moment the dark brake was thrown, thousands of blood-colored butterflies scattered, and the purple clouds were like a fine line connecting Heaven and Earth.

The black Spear Qi and Blood Qi jolted the hearts of everyone in Tianji City.

Cultivators below the Dragon Gate Realm could not withstand it and all fell unconscious.

Yun Yun, who had opened a barrier to protect the Long sisters and Yaya, also had a trickle of blood leaking from the corner of her mouth.

And this was merely the after-resonance of that single spear strike.

This was a spear strike Lin Xun had created by combining the Zilin Immortal Method.

It was also the final spear strike Lin Xun used by exhausting all his efforts and pouring in all his spiritual power.

The lightning ‘Lin Xun’ was about to raise his long spear to block, but his right wrist was slightly entangled by purple silk threads.

The lightning ‘Lin Xun’ was a moment late.

In that very moment, although the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ also threw a spear strike, it was incomplete.

Whether it was Spear Qi or Spear Intent, any imperfection meant a world of difference!

The dark brake shattered the incoming black-blue light; the fake dark brake formed by the combination of lightning and dao rhyme was also smashed to pieces at the same time!

The lightning ‘Lin Xun’ did not try to take this spear strike head-on again.

With the strength of the Spirit Refining Realm Perfection, Lin Xun couldn’t cause much real damage to him.

But inheriting Lin Xun’s combat instincts, the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ shifted his body in the next moment.

However, this spear strike wasn’t aimed at the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ in the first place.

Lin Xun was extremely clear that the version of himself before him was formed by the Great Dao derived from Heaven and Earth, with spiritual power supplied directly by Heaven and Earth.

The difference in Realm was too large, and the opponent’s spiritual power was continuous, undying and indestructible.

However, as long as he cut off his connection with Heaven and Earth.

Then, without the maintenance of the Heaven and Earth dao rhyme and the supply of spiritual power, he would be like a Puppet with broken strings and would disintegrate on his own!

The spear passed through, and a large hole was pierced in the thunderclouds.

The entire sky was trembling, as if it could fall at any moment.

The dark brake broke open the sky, and a large hole appeared; within the hole was an endless ‘white’.

This ‘white’ didn’t seem like ordinary white.

Yet it wasn’t white.

This was ‘Nothingness’.

Creation from nothingness—this was the most fundamental existence of Heaven and Earth.

And this existence was exposed to the world by Lin Xun.

If the lightning ‘Lin Xun’, with the strength of the Spirit Refining Realm Perfection, wanted to stop Lin Xun’s spear strike, it would have been absolutely no problem.

But although he had Lin Xun’s Peak combat power, no matter what, the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ was always a lifeless object.

He naturally didn’t understand these things.

In fact, perhaps even the Great Dao had not expected this.

That the Cultivator who had suffered the backlash of Heaven and Earth back then.

Today, would still have the strength to sever the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ formed from dao rhyme and lightning.

Indeed, since the birth of Heaven and Earth, countless Cultivators had undergone tribulations.

But whether it was a Pill Tribulation or otherwise, this was the first time someone had struck at the fundamental source.

If the lightning ‘Lin Xun’ were compared to a Puppet.

Then Lin Xun had directly cut the strings in the Puppet master’s hand.

This didn’t mean Lin Xun could undergo tribulations like this in the future.

In the final analysis, this was just a Pill Tribulation.

If it were a Human Tribulation, then the Heavenly Tribulation would be targeted; the one undergoing the tribulation could resist with treasures, but outsiders could not help.

And if it were Lin Xun’s own tribulation, it would be like before—the invisible Great Dao might personally take the field.

At that time, Lin Xun wouldn’t be able to play any clever tricks.

But regardless, the outcome was decided.

In the sky, those invisible threads were completely severed by Lin Xun’s spear.

Losing the maintenance of Heaven and Earth, the lightning ‘Lin Xun’s’ form gradually drifted away, turning into thousands of light motes that dissipated and fell into the young girl’s courtyard.

The light motes turned into wisps of blue threads, slowly sinking into that single Immortal Pill.

Faint lightning patterns appeared on the Immortal Pill.

This was the Great Dao’s rhyme nourishing the Immortal Pill after the Pill Tribulation.

The pill is formed!

When the last wisp of blue thread and the other auxiliary medicines merged into the main pill, the Medicinal Pill was completed.

Gusts of fresh wind carrying a medicinal fragrance blew through the courtyard.

Even just a single sniff was refreshing to the soul.

With the pill’s completion, the tense nerves of many old men from Medicine King Valley finally got a rest.

A massive sense of fatigue swept over them, and they all fainted to the ground.

Lin Xun fell from the sky and stood in the courtyard.

Everyone looked at each other.

The courtyard fell into a period of silence.

“If Little Brother Lin doesn’t mind, take this pill. In a moment, this old man will examine you.”

As the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley, Must Not Die naturally knew that Lin Xun’s spiritual power was currently near zero, and his injuries were very severe.

Once in the Rootless Secret Realm, and once now.

With two consecutive recurrences of old injuries, Must Not Die wasn’t even sure what state the injuries in Lin Xun’s body had reached.

Lin Xun looked at the Medicinal Pill in Must Not Die’s hand, cupped his hands in a salute, and did not refuse.

He swallowed the pill; it was a top-grade Spirit-Replenishing Pill.

The dried-up spiritual sea in Lin Xun’s body received a bit of nourishment.

“Junior would like to go and see Miss Sikong. I wonder if Senior would allow it?”

Lin Xun bowed again to the Sikong couple.

Although the pill was formed, Lin Xun was still very uneasy.

What if this Immortal Pill was useless?

So Lin Xun wanted to stay and see.

He would only leave once he was sure Wang Xing was really okay.

“Come in with us.”

Sikong Jing sighed with complex emotions and did not refuse.

Lin Xun had saved his family’s lives; how could he refuse?

At this time, the Female Elder of Medicine King Valley in the room had already stopped her acupuncture, dressed the girl, and was using spiritual power to maintain the girl’s heart vessels.

Walking to the bedside, Must Not Die handed the Immortal Pill to Zhu Ling.

Zhu Ling nodded, opened Wang Xing’s small mouth, and placed the pill inside.

Zhu Ling performed a hand seal, and the Immortal Pill in Wang Xing’s mouth quickly melted.

Zhu Ling took Wang Xing’s pulse.

Feeling Sister Wang Xing’s heart vessels gradually stabilize, her vitality slowly recovering, her body temperature dropping rapidly, and the frantic spiritual power in her body calming down, Zhu Ling was overjoyed.

Zhu Ling’s joy was seen by everyone.

Lin Xun and Must Not Die truly breathed a sigh of relief, and Madam Sikong leaned on her husband’s shoulder, weeping with happiness.

Just when everyone thought Wang Xing’s Life Tribulation had passed.

Suddenly, Wang Xing, lying on the bed, began to cough violently.

From the corner of her eye, a wisp of dark red blood, shaped like a butterfly, overflowed.
