"Spare me! Spare me! Lin Yun, please spare me! I am one of the ancestors of the Firestone Clan. I possess immense wealth, trillions of spiritual crystals, and endless rare and precious treasures. If you spare me, I can give you all that wealth. I will no longer allow Ancestor Yun to deal with you. Killing me will bring you no benefit; Ancestor Yun will avenge me..."
As Huo Shiwei's body turned into a blood mist, less and less remained. Huo Shiwei's will weakened, and finally, unable to withstand the fear of death, he cried out in terror.
He admitted defeat.
Having lived for countless years and traversed the universe for countless years, having reached the pinnacle of the universe, he did not wish to perish.
With the Fallen Ancestor having broken through to the Saint Realm, the development of their Firestone Clan is about to usher in a new chapter.
He also wanted to break through to the realm of a sage.
If I die, all of this will be gone.
"A crystallization of billions of spiritual resources..."
"The entire wealth of an ancestor of the Firestone family..."
Many cultivators around were also in an uproar upon seeing this scene, their hearts filled with excitement and shock.
The Firestone Clan, one of the three top super powers in the universe, has existed since ancient times. The entire wealth of one of its ancestors is something that cultivators can easily imagine how terrifying it must be.
They were already very excited just hearing that such a large sum of money was going to be given to Lin Yun.
"Don't be naive. Right now, Huo Shiwei is just saying nice things to save his own life!"
"Indeed, he may be sincere now that he's facing a death threat, but it's hard to say whether he'll keep his promise once he's out of danger!"
"Unless Lin Yun is stupid, he won't believe him!"
"Right now, Lin Yun has beaten him so badly and made him lose face in front of so many people. If we let him go now, it will be a fight to the death!"
Some calm people shook their heads slightly.
"die--"
As expected, Lin Yun ignored Huo Shiwei's words and swung the Bloodthirsty Sword faster, quickly absorbing the remaining blood mist of Huo Shiwei.
The more Huo Shiwei spoke, the more worried Lin Yun became that the Fallen Ancestor had arrived.
"You can't kill me! You can't kill me! Our Firestone Clan has already produced a Saint-level expert, and our Ancestor Fallen has already become a Saint-level expert. If you dare to kill me, there will be no place for you in heaven or on earth..."
Seeing that Lin Yun was still relentlessly killing him and was even speeding up, Huo Shiwei said in despair, "At this speed, he will probably be dead in just one or two breaths."
"What?"
"The Firestone family has already produced a Saint-level expert?"
"Really? I've always heard that the Firestone family might produce a Saint-level expert, could it be true..."
"The Fallen Ancestor... he really did break through to the Saint Realm..."
Upon hearing Huo Shiwei's words, countless cultivators around him gasped in shock.
"A Saint-level expert? What is a Saint-level expert? Is he stronger than a Super Strong expert?"
Some cultivators, unaware of the nature of saints and powerful figures, asked questions in confusion.
"Does the Firestone family really have a Saint-level expert?"
Lin Yun's body trembled, and he was also shocked.
He had never met a Saint-level expert, but he had heard Xiao Chong and Ba Hu Ye talk about them. Thousands of years ago, both Xiao Chong and Ba Hu Ye had visited the Immortal Origin Holy Land and had seen Saint-level experts, as well as battles between Saint-level experts and ordinary super-strong individuals.
According to them, the strength of a Saint-level expert is extremely powerful. Even a dozen or so powerful super-experts working together are no match for a Saint-level expert. Furthermore, they suspect that those Saint-level experts did not use their full strength at the time.
That's another realm, very likely, as big as the gap between an ordinary cultivator and a super strong person.
"Does the Huoshi family really have a Saint-level expert?" On the other side, Mo Dan was also very shocked.
"Even if there are saintly experts, so what? We've already come this far, there's no way we can back down, and I don't want to back down either..." Soon, a dark look flashed in Lin Yun's eyes as he thought to himself.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
The Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand increased its attack speed once again. The saintly powerhouse that Huo Shiwei mentioned did not make him feel any mercy, but only made him attack faster.
"Ah! Lin Yun! I curse you, you will die a horrible death, a horrible death..."
Huo Shiwei was utterly desperate. His body turned into a blood mist, and only a tiny part of it emitted a mental tremor, transmitting its voice through the starry sky. This voice grew fainter and fainter.
Finally, it disappeared completely.
In this starry sky, all the blood mist and all of Huo Shiwei's spiritual will vanished.
Huo Shiwei, a top-tier super-strong individual who had traversed countless corners of the universe for many years, has completely perished.
call!
Lin Yun sheathed the Bloodthirsty Sword.
"Thank you so much, Senior Can, Senior Mo..."
Lin Yun flashed to a spot not far from Can and Mo Dan, and bowed.
"Roar!" Can roared softly at Lin Yun, then turned its head to look at Xiao Jin not far away, who was leading everyone towards them at high speed.
"No need to thank me. You're Xiao Jin's friend, and I'm helping you because of Xiao Jin's request!" Lin Yun could understand the meaning in Can's beast language, and he smiled slightly.
Then, Lin Yun turned to look at Mo Dan.
"Brother Lin, you're too kind. To be honest, if I hadn't asked you to participate in this competition, you wouldn't have gotten caught up in this mess. I'm very sorry about what happened to Brother Xiao and Fellow Daoist Bai. If I had come earlier, they wouldn't have perished..." Mo Dan also cupped his hands and said repeatedly.
Mo Dan wanted to befriend Lin Yun. He knew that sincerity was the key to friendship, and he couldn't hide any of his mistakes, otherwise, it would be bad if Lin Yun felt uncomfortable.
“This matter is not Senior Mo’s fault. They perished because of me…” Hearing Mo Dan mention Xiao Chong and Bai Po, Lin Yun’s mood turned somber and heavy. He shook his head slightly.
“My reaction was a bit slow in the previous battle, otherwise, Huo Shi’ao might not have been able to escape. I’m really sorry…” Mo Dan said again.
"Senior Mo, there's no need to blame yourself. To be honest, I'm truly grateful for your help..." Lin Yun said with a faint smile.
At first, he didn't quite understand why Mo Dan was a step slower in coordinating. But later, during the battle, he gradually realized that Mo Dan must have some reservations. In fact, he should have had some reservations too.
Even if he doesn't care about his own life, there are other people around him.
Perhaps, in the very beginning, when he was fighting Huoshi An in the arena, he shouldn't have killed his opponent.
Perhaps, when Huo Shi'ao came later and attacked him again, he should have backed down and properly handed over the God-Devouring Blade and the Demonic Sound Bell to him.
In that case... perhaps Xiao Chong and Bai Po wouldn't have died.
Thinking this, Lin Yun felt a pang of self-reproach.
Perhaps he was wrong from the start.
He must be like Mo Dan...
Therefore, at this moment, he fully understood Mo Dan's reaction.
This is the wisdom of survival accumulated by true sages over a long period of time.
