"You want to eradicate the Xuanling Temple?"

Upon hearing this, Grand Master Xuanling looked at Lin Jinglong with slight surprise. In his mind, he thought Lin Jinglong had come to them to demand an explanation for Kongming's actions against Lin Jinglong's wife.

His pressure on Lin Jinglong was also to get his two junior brothers back. He felt that there was no irreconcilable enmity between the two sides, as long as Lin Jinglong was willing to release them.

Ideally, the power of Heaven's Dao should also be sent back.

In this way, Xuanling Temple wouldn't lose anything; they would only lose some face, but he would still make it back.

As for Lin Jinglong's side...

Circumstances are beyond our control; we have no choice but to bow our heads!

After all, this time Lin Jinglong is facing the Xuanling Temple!

But to his surprise, Lin Jinglong immediately declared his intention to eliminate them, which was truly laughable.

"I'm warning you one last time. You've offended my third junior brother. Although he did some wrong things, he doesn't deserve to die. What happened today is not without a solution."

Why escalate the conflict so completely?

The Grand Master of Suspended Spirits felt that Lin Jinglong was too impulsive.

Lin Jinglong said calmly, "Alright, I can let him off the hook for now, as long as you guarantee that you won't cause me any more trouble in the future."

"Senior Brother, don't agree to his request!"

Kong Ming immediately became excited.

Besides the two fellow disciples who were still in Lin Jinglong's hands, the secrets they discovered in Chiyun Ridge were also taken away by Lin Jinglong.

They lost both face and substance.

At a crucial moment in the development of Xuanling Temple.

How could we possibly back down to Lin Jinglong?

Even without Kongming's reminder, Xuanling had the same idea.

He pondered how to persuade Lin Jinglong, at least to get the two sides to negotiate, and perhaps there would be a chance for both sides to make concessions.

For example, giving that wisp of heavenly secret to Lin Jinglong.

But we need to return my two fellow disciples...

He felt that this could be considered a concession on their part.

However, he did not expect that Lin Jinglong had already shaken his head.

"Unwilling to back down? It seems that your Xuanling Temple still hasn't grasped what pain is. Once you know pain and fear, you'll know how to back down!"

"Bang!"

He kicked it down.

Kong Ming, who was lying on the ground in front of him, was kicked into a cloud of blood mist. He didn't even have time to let out a scream before he died.

After it was kicked open, a faint light shot out.

That was none other than the Yin God of the Void!

"Binding spirits and dispatching generals!"

Lin Jinglong raised his hand and grabbed.

The struggling Yin spirit also fell into Lin Jinglong's hands.

"Lin Jinglong!"

The already dead Kongming let out a desperate roar.

Lin Jinglong looked at him with a half-smile.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Then I'll make you... vanish into nothingness!"

Lin Jinglong's face darkened.

This time, he didn't intend to capture Kong Ming alive, because this person had already harmed his family and was an extreme hardliner on the Xuanling Temple side.

Then kill them, kill them until they're afraid!

As for the consequences, if we have the strength, why should we be afraid of not being able to bear them?

"Bang!"

Another muffled thud.

Before anyone else could react.

Lin Jinglong actually crushed Kongming's Yin Spirit completely once again!

"don't want!"

In the final moments of his life, as the only remaining trace of Kongming in this world, his Yin spirit was crushed by Lin Jinglong with a single palm strike.

Finally, fear appeared on his face.

He tried to beg Lin Jinglong to let him go.

But in the end, he never had the chance!

This scene left Fang Dongshan and the others around them in a state of utter shock.

"That guy, he actually killed Kong Ming!"

"He killed him right in front of the Spirit Master!"

"Has he gone mad?"

"A major battle is inevitable!"

"There's no way he'll leave Xuanling Temple alive!"

"..."

The monks from Xuanling Temple shared the same attitude, staring at Lin Jinglong in disbelief, as if they were dreaming.

I saw a sight I should never have seen in my life.

How could Lin Jinglong be so ruthless?

"The Third Elder is dead! Grand Master, kill him immediately!"

Then someone let out a shrill cry.

Xuanling had just witnessed this scene, but he hadn't had a chance to stop it. Lin Jinglong kicked Kongming to pieces before he could intervene.

Lin Jinglong used the Spirit Binding Technique to suppress and kill the Yin God.

He was too late to stop it!

That's why an angry look appeared on his face.

"The reason I let you go is because I didn't want to fight you. After all, you are one of the ten Heavenly Clans that Huangfu Kong has his eye on. But since you killed someone in front of me."

"Then I don't need to give face to anyone!"

"Even if Huangfu Kong came today, he couldn't persuade me. I will definitely kill you!"

Kong Ming's death is nothing. Suspended Spirit can easily cultivate more beings like him. He is only at the Dao Integration stage, but for others, he is a top-tier powerhouse.

For Xuanling Temple, he was merely an auxiliary force.

But Kongming was killed right in front of him, which was a slap in the face to him and Xuanling Temple.

This matter must not be leaked!

Otherwise, not only would his status as the Imperial Preceptor and the state religion of Xuanling Temple be threatened, but even the status of the Ten Heavenly Clans would likely be threatened.

The damage to their prestige is far too severe!

"boom!"

A deafening roar echoed through the heavens and earth.

The entire cave trembled.

The Suspended Spirit Cave, which had gathered a full ten percent of the malevolent energy in the world, instantly condensed that malevolent energy behind the Grand Master Suspended Spirit.

It surged towards Lin Jinglong like a black tide!

Seeing this, Fang Dongshan and the others felt a pang of sympathy for Lin Jinglong.

"The young man was too impulsive and offended the Grand Master. He is indeed doomed."

"I'm afraid it's not just him, but even his family members."

"They too cannot escape their fate!"

"This is absolute power!"

Lin Jinglong squinted at the oncoming tide.

His expression was full of disdain.

"Heavenly Thunder Summoning!"

He did not use the immortal-level technique Heavenly Thunder Summoning, but directly used his control over the Heavenly Dao to summon the source of lightning that was free in the world.

It gathered above his head in an even more magnificent manner.

"Heavenly Thunder Shatters Evil!"

Heavenly lightning has an absolute suppressive power against malevolent energy.

When Lin Jinglong used the Heavenly Thunder Summoning Technique, which surpassed the level of immortal cultivation, to draw upon the power of countless lightning origins, a waterfall of lightning appeared before him.

This waterfall originates from the sky outside the cave.

Overcoming the barriers of space, they descended upon the Hanging Spirit Temple!

This boundless and powerful surge of lightning not only washed away the fierce and malevolent aura that swept in, but also transformed into a long river that rushed towards the Spirit Master on the opposite side.

Even the Spirit Master stared wide-eyed.

A look of shock appeared in his eyes.

"So this is Lin Jinglong's true strength?"

"No! Why didn't my Heavenly Eye foresee this?"

"This person's fate... is it really impossible to see?"
