Chapter 928 - Might Not Be The Case!
The Sovereign's Ascension
The sound of Ma Yuâs head exploding was resounding. Under the explosion, Ma Yuâs head exploded like fireworks. No one could believe that a genius in the second soul Heavenly Soul Realm was easily killed by Lin Yun.
Even more shocking was Lin Yunâs sword intent that looked like a dragon. How powerful was Lin Yunâs sword intent that it reached such a terrifying height? When Ma Yuâs headless corpse fell to the ground, everyone turned to look at Lin Yun with disbelief.
How is this possible? He clearly hasnât even gone through his first tribulation, but heâs still so strong. How can a Heavenly Soul Realm defeat a second soul Heavenly Soul Realm from the higher realm? Why was Ma Yu killed so easily?
Yuan Hengtian squinted his eyes as he looked at Lin Yun with surprise. Before coming, he already knew that Lin Yunâs sword intent was strong. Otherwise, Feng Wuji wouldnât have died to one sword. But even if Lin Yunâs spiritual sword intent was strong, there had to be a limit to it.
Naturally, he thought it would be easy for Ma Yu to suppress Lin Yun. Ma Yu refined 2,000,000 astral pellets in his second tribulation, so he was far from ordinary. It far exceeded what the geniuses from intermediate realms could refine. However, Ma Yu was still killed by Lin Yunâs sword intent.
Although the boundless sword aura was slowly dissipating, the azure and purple sword rays still flickered with a cold ray. This also made all the spectators, including Zhao Feng, take a deep breath.
Initially, he didnât believe that someone dared to challenge the higher realms and even killed three higher realms geniuses. After all, it was public knowledge that the higher realms were equivalent to the sky in the Heavenly Path. They were existences who couldnât be provoked. However, Lin Yun had completely destroyed everyoneâs perception of the invincible higher realms.
What a pity. If a genius like him manages to grow up, he might be able to shine brightly at the end of the Heavenly Path. Zhao Feng shook his head inwardly. Although Lin Yun was strong, there was no way he could escape Yuan Hengtian.
âThe geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking canât be provoked,â sighed Zhao Feng. He knew how terrifying the geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking were. His emotions also affected those around him as they looked at Lin Yun with pity.
Silence filled the deck for a long time before Yuan Hengtian spoke up, âIt looks like I underestimated you. Iâve faced swordsmen in the past and there are many powerful swordsmen on the Azure Dragon Ranking. However, no oneâs sword intent can compare to yours.â
But Lin Yun merely glanced at Yuan Hengtian and said, âSo youâre a genius on the Azure Dragon Ranking. Greetings.â
He was only one step away from reaching the sky sword intent as his spiritual sword intent was reaching its limit. Even without the immortal azure dragon aura, he was confident that no oneâs spiritual sword intent could compete with his. So Yuan Hengtian wasnât wrong in his evaluation.
Although the Bloodbone Realm was strong in the Heavenly Path, they werenât the strongest. So Lin Yun didnât place Yuan Hengtianâs praise in his eyes. The reason why he greeted Yuan Hengtian was to show that he didnât place Yuan Hengtian in his eyes.
âYouâre more arrogant than Iâve heard. It looks like you donât even place the geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking in your eyes,â smiled Yuan Hengtian. He was full of confidence and wasnât enraged by Lin Yunâs attitude in any way.
âMy apologies.â Lin Yun corrected, âIâm not targeting the Azure Dragon Ranking, just you. By my estimations, youâre only ranked at the bottom end of the Azure Dragon Ranking, right?â
âLin Yun, how dare you speak to my senior brother like that!â The person standing beside Yuan Hengtian was enraged by Lin Yunâs arrogance
But Yuan Hengtian stopped him and smiled, âLet me do it. Just prevent him from escaping. Lin Yun, everyone beneath the Azure Dragon Ranking is an ant. Initially, I had no intention of dealing with you myself. After all, how would that be fair for you? But since youâre courting death, Iâll have to grant your wish!â
Yuan Hengtian wasnât enraged and the death of his companion didnât affect him. It seemed that the pride and confidence of a genius on the Azure Dragon Ranking was deeply engraved in his bones.
Is Yuan Hengtian personally going to make a move? All the spectators were filled with anticipation. After all, many people heard about the legendary geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking, but not many had seen their strength.
âNo matter what, youâre going to die today!â Yuan Hengtian glared at Lin Yun as the surrounding air turned cold. As he stepped forward, the entire ship began to tremble as his weight created large waves on the river.
In the next second, Yuan Hengtianâs figure suddenly disappeared.
âWhat speed!â Lin Yun was shocked by Yuan Hengtianâs speed. Then again, Yuan Hengtian was far stronger than Ma Yu. It was obvious why Lin Yun felt a dangerous aura from Yuan Hengtian.
Boundless sword intent surged in the depths of Lin Yunâs eyes as his spiritual sword intent enveloped the surroundings. At the same time, Lin Yun charged forward and moved like a fish in water.
The moment he moved, a booming sound arrived as Lin Yun narrowly dodged Yuan Hengtianâs punch. But Yuan Hengtian wasnât surprised as he smiled, âYour sword intent is pretty keen.â
However, Yuan Hengtianâs figure was blurry as if he wasnât really there. He was using an extremely profound movement technique that was practically an advanced fortune martial technique.
His speed was even faster than Lin Yunâs Cloud Soaring Art. After ten clashes, Yuan Hengtian caught Lin Yun and threw a punch at his chest.
âYou dare to be arrogant before me?â Yuan Hengtian laughed as he tried to tear Lin Yunâs sword aura apart and pierce his chest.
Based on the power behind this attack, he was confident that he could crush Lin Yun. It wouldnât even matter if Lin Yun had pushed his spiritual sword intent to the limit. After all, the huge gap in their cultivation wasnât easily overcome. Yuan Hengtianâs punch successfully broke through Lin Yunâs sword aura and hit Lin Yunâs chest. However, it sounded like he hit metal.
Yuan Hengtian was shocked to discover dragon runes were shattering on the surface of Lin Yunâs body and manifesting into purple lightning to envelope him. The attack that he was so confident in failed to pierce through Lin Yunâs chest. Instead, it was stopped by the mysterious dragon runes enveloping Lin Yunâs body.
Simultaneously, Lin Yun thought to himself that the geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking were exceptionally strong. After all, Yuan Hengtian managed to shatter the dragon runes on the surface of his body. Luckily, Yuan Hengtian failed to leave any injuries on him. Thinking quickly, Lin Yun counterattacked with a slap to Yuan Hengtianâs face and sent him flying.
This scene left everyone dumbfounded. Did Lin Yun really just slap a genius on the Azure Dragon Ranking? Everyone rubbed their eyes to make sure they werenât dreaming.
âI donât dare to be arrogant before you. In fact, that slap was an accident,â smiled Lin Yun as he wiped the blood off his lips. As he spoke, his shattered sword intent converged together like a painting.
At this moment, Lin Yun felt unhappy because his cultivation was too weak. The immortal azure dragon wasnât really immortal. If Yuan Hengtian landed a few more attacks on him, he might not be able to bear it. Furthermore, it would be embarrassing if his sword intent kept getting destroyed by people.
âIt recovered?â Yuan Hengtianâs face was dark because the durability of Lin Yunâs sword intent was really terrifying. Then, a cold light flashed through his pupils as his origin energy fluctuated. âLet me see if you still can still smile after this!â
As his aura rippled out, the entire ship shook violently and the sky turned dark. Behind Yuan Hengtian, a crimson radiance started surging violently.
âAdvanced fortune martial technique!â Zhao Fengâs heart began to throb violently when he saw this scene. It was a phenomenon that was similar to the other geniuses on the Azure Dragon Ranking who fought for the Glorygold Spirit.
Zhao Feng was full of fear. It was too late for him to run. If Yuan Hengtianâs attack landed, everyone would end up dying with Lin Yun.
âItâs over! Bloodbone Demon Palm!â At this moment, Yuan Hengtianâs face was so distorted that he looked like he had gone insane. Clearly, it wasnât easy for him to execute an advanced fortune martial technique.
Yuan Hengtian had to resort to this because Lin Yunâs sword intent was really weird. He didnât want any accidents and he definitely didnât want Lin Yun to turn the situation around.
Itâs over? I donât think so! Lin Yun smiled, âYouâre not the only one with an advanced fortune martial technique!â
