Three years ago, he was the young master of the most prominent family in the capital, but due to his grandfather's superstition, he was sent to a Taoist temple where he suffered hardship yet ma...
Li Gong walked arrogantly to Tantai Yu's side.
"If nothing unexpected happens, you two will be the targets of their challenge. Little girl, weren't you quite arrogant just now?"
"If you kneel down now, kowtow and call me Master Li a few times, I might still be able to save your life at a critical moment."
"Even if I lose my spot, at least I won't lose my life."
Tantai Yu glanced at Li Gong.
Although she appeared calm and collected, her palms were actually sweating, because Qin Dao, who was opposite her, had also stepped forward and focused all his killing intent on Tantai Yu.
"The second challenge is her!"
Qin Dao raised his sword and pointed it at Tantai Yu.
His actions were not surprising.
Both challenges have been set.
Huang Genji, the sect leader of Qingyun Sect, was the first to step forward.
"I'll take this chance and make it a success."
He was surrounded by white mist, clearly a powerful figure who had mastered the secrets of heaven, and he looked no weaker than Lin Miao, who had fought Lin Jinglong the night before.
In addition, his own strength is already formidable.
He was a Taoist practitioner.
His mastery of various techniques can also enhance his foundation.
In terms of overall strength, it can be said that he far surpasses Lin Miao!
Lin Jinglong also walked out on his own initiative. When he passed by Huangfu Kong, Huangfu Kong sent him a telepathic reminder.
"Try not to reveal your hand too much, lest it be too shocking and make you a target for those behind the scenes."
"Don't reveal your hand?"
Lin Jinglong shook his head.
He said calmly, "Elder, you don't need to worry about that. I don't even know how many trump cards I have. Even if they know some, what use is it?"
Huangfu Kong gave a slight, bitter smile.
Lin Jinglong is too arrogant!
But whether it was what happened inside the Holy Realm or the battle against the Immortal Soul Devouring Array outside the Holy Realm, it was enough to demonstrate Lin Jinglong's terrifying strength.
It's understandable that he has such confidence.
Thus, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Jinglong appeared before Huang Genji. This sect leader of a reclusive ancient martial arts sect disregarded his status and immediately mobilized more than twenty strands of heavenly secret power within him.
He suddenly charged towards Lin Jinglong!
Suppressed by the Heavenly Dao!
An invisible force pressed down on everyone.
The thousands of martial artists and cultivators behind them almost simultaneously felt suffocated. They stared wide-eyed, not daring to miss any detail of the battle before them.
"Everyone, watch and learn carefully. Although we do not possess the power of the Heavenly Dao, Sect Master Huang is, after all, a supreme expert of an ancient martial arts sect. His martial arts and Daoist techniques are at the heaven-reaching level!"
"Even learning just one or two moves from him would be enough to benefit us for years to come!"
"It's a pity about Lin Jinglong. I remember watching his battle with the hidden families during the World Martial Arts Tournament. I never thought he would die here today."
"Even the strongest prodigy lacks a solid foundation; how can they compare to those reclusive ancient martial arts forces?"
"..."
The crowd behind them was buzzing with discussion.
Li Gong, Tie Hanshan, and the others felt a sense of schadenfreude. They all felt that since Huangfu Kong had accepted the challenge, it meant that the power of the Tianlang City faction had entered the Ten Clans of Heaven.
This is a fact that Huangfu Kong cannot change.
"It seems that even the Grand Elder has no choice but to accept the current situation."
Despite their tough talk, the Elders' Council can't afford to deny the city of Sirius any chance in the face of their coercion.
They held this view.
They were all planning to see Lin Jinglong make a fool of himself.
"boom!"
Just as everyone was staring wide-eyed at the scene...
Lin Jinglong leaped over the area where the power of heavenly secrets was most abundant, ignoring the suppression of those heavenly powers on him, and descended in front of Huang Genji.
Seeing Huang Genji raise his hand to form a hand seal, as if he wanted to cast a spell, he punched him.
"Hahaha! This is the ultimate technique passed down from the ancient Qingyun Sect, the Qingyun Barrier. Even if Huangfu Kong came, he wouldn't be able to shatter it in one blow!"
"Your attack is just hitting the air!"
A layer of blue light barrier appeared before him.
Huang Genji looked at Lin Jinglong with a smug expression.
He continued to unleash the power of the Heavenly Dao and used the Dao techniques he had mastered, intending to suppress Lin Jinglong and then completely kill him.
He was not worried that the Qingyun Barrier would be broken.
In his view, with the power Lin Jinglong possessed, he was destined to be unable to break through this barrier, and even if a Dao Integration Supreme came, he would not be able to achieve it!
The people behind nodded subconsciously.
"As expected, Lin Jinglong couldn't even break through the barrier, and couldn't even harm a hair on Elder Huang's head."
Everyone shook their heads.
They reaffirmed that Lin Jinglong was destined to lose.
However, none of them noticed that when Lin Jinglong's fist energy landed on that barrier, ripples began to spread, as if his power resonated with that barrier.
He doesn't need to forcefully break through the barrier with his own great power; he can make the barrier collapse on its own simply by using this resonance!
Huang Genji realized that something was wrong.
He frowned and instinctively attacked Lin Jinglong.
Although he didn't know if the barrier would break, if it did, he would have to confront Lin Jinglong head-on, which would definitely not be a good thing for him.
What he wants is to win, and to win by overwhelming force!
Only in this way can they directly refute Huangfu Kong and prove that their Qingyun Sect is a more suitable candidate to join the Ten Clans of Heaven than Lin Jinglong.
"die!"
He let out a low growl.
His palm struck Lin Jinglong's face.
"flaw!"
A golden light flashed in Lin Jinglong's eyes.
He mobilized a power of the Heavenly Dao to suppress all opportunities around him, even the surging of Qi within Huang Genji's body became sluggish.
Huang Genji's expression changed once again.
His hand, which was slapping Lin Jinglong's face, was also trembling slightly.
"how so?"
"break!"
Lin Jinglong spoke in a low voice.
In the resonance, coupled with the suppression of the power of Heaven, it actually broke through the opponent's barrier.
"boom!"
The azure light barrier shattered completely, turning into countless rays of light that dissipated. At the same time, Lin Jinglong's next punch landed on the opponent's chest.
Everyone behind them stared wide-eyed.
"How did that barrier break? And why is Sect Master Huang's Heavenly Dao suppression having no effect on Lin Jinglong?"
A gasp of surprise erupted from the crowd.
They witnessed the most incomprehensible scene.
What's even more terrifying is what happened next. Huang Genji, who was incredibly powerful in their eyes, couldn't even withstand a single punch from Lin Jinglong after breaking through the barrier.
Amidst the roar, Huang Genji let out a scream.
His entire body instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
Lin Jinglong blew a breath, and the blood mist scattered among the crowd, while a ball of pure white mist condensed in his palm.
"Thank you for the gift from Tianlang City. I will accept these two strands of heavenly secrets."
