Once his killing intent was solidified, the Golden Mirror Master took out several more pills and swallowed them, continuing to unleash his full power.
The magic sword continued relentlessly, unleashing countless chilling sword lights as it slashed down.
The Golden Mirror Master's hands moved swiftly, forming seals and unleashing a series of spells that pressed down relentlessly, aiming to completely shatter the Azure Armor Array Plate, which was on the verge of its limit!
Having reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, his magical power was even more profound. The spells he cast emitted bursts of spiritual light, covering an area of more than ten feet, which was quite terrifying and almost completely enveloped the entire Azure Armor Formation.
Sometimes the earth shakes violently, as if a dragon is turning over, extending out spikes of earth; sometimes several fire dragons, each several meters long, roar out, and sometimes a water tornado, ten meters high, presses down horizontally.
This transformation of spiritual light unleashed a terrifying aura, and the aftershocks swept outwards, sending sand and stones flying everywhere.
Lin Xiuyuan remained calm, with a hint of concentration, and continued to use various protective methods to defend himself.
By this point in the battle, he had few wooden magic talismans left and needed to save them for later use. Therefore, Lin Xiuyuan began to use the Fire Dragon Spirit Talisman, forming several fire dragons to attack in conjunction with the Twin Blade Spirit Array. After weakening the opponent's offensive power, he used the magic shield and two wooden magic talismans to defend in conjunction with the Azure Armor Array Plate.
For a time, they managed to hold out, but the lack of a barrier formed by the wooden talisman increased the pressure on the Azure Armor Array Plate, causing the number of cracks on it to increase rapidly. Clearly, it could not hold out for much longer.
Lin Xiuyuan had no choice but to use a few more Fire Dragon Talismans to try and reduce the power of the opponent's attack, thereby relieving the pressure on the Azure Armor Array Plate.
However, it is clear that the Fire Dragon Talisman is only a low-grade, low-level talisman, and its power is far inferior, so it is naturally unable to relieve the pressure on the Azure Armor Array Plate.
In the end, they could not hold on for even half a quarter of an hour. The cracks on the blue armor array plates had reached their limit. With a loud "bang," several array plates completely collapsed, turning into rubble and scattering on the ground, their spiritual energy completely dissipated.
The hazy blue light that had enveloped him for about ten feet dimmed in an instant, revealing Lin Xiuyuan's figure.
But at this moment, Lin Xiuyuan's face showed no change. He remained calm and composed, calmly summoning a mid-grade magic sword that hovered around him, as well as a stack of spirit talismans in his hand.
Because the restless and scorching atmosphere on the side was gradually subsiding.
In its place came a surge of demonic energy, typical of Foundation Establishment cultivators, filled with rage and ferocity!
Surprisingly, Huo Yun had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage!
As the intense, fiery red light faded, the vibrant red body of the snake was revealed, slowly writhing, exuding a strange and eerie beauty.
Originally several feet long, it has now reached more than ten feet, its size several times larger, coiled there like a red volcano, bringing a sense of horror.
The slender snake head was raised high, and its cold and indifferent vertical pupils had a touch of red more than before, like red blood vessels. Upon closer inspection, it seemed as if the pupils were stained with a touch of red.
"Thank you for protecting me, Master. I will come to your aid right away!"
Huo Yun flicked her tongue, coldly watching the Golden Mirror expert, before slowly slithering to Lin Xiuyuan's side and speaking in human language. It seemed somewhat strange, but it was actually quite normal. Upon reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, the bloodline of the demon beast grew stronger, becoming like that of a cultivator. Its spiritual power was sufficient to circulate throughout its body, and by removing the transverse bone, it could speak human language.
Lin Xiuyuan turned his head to look at Huo Yun and felt a faint sense of pressure coming from her. He was quite surprised. It seems that Huo Yun is indeed a demon beast with the bloodline of an ancient great demon. As soon as she broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, she was able to exert such power!
Keep in mind that he had broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage several years ago, yet Huo Yun, who had just broken through, was able to bring him a sense of oppression, which shows how powerful she is!
"Alright, let's join forces and kill this old man!"
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan felt reassured and turned to look at the Golden Mirror Master, coldly saying...
"Heh, so what if you've broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage? You've only just achieved Foundation Establishment. Anyone who didn't know better would think you, a spirit beast, had directly broken through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage!"
Upon seeing Huo Yun's successful breakthrough, the invisible spiritual pressure emanating from her was like that of a cultivator who had already entered the early stages of Foundation Establishment many years ago.
This caused the Golden Mirror Master's pupils to shrink, after all, it was a monster ranked high on the list of extraordinary monsters, it was indeed extraordinary!
This caused the murderous intent in his eyes to waver again, but soon the previous thought surged back, making his determination firm again.
His natural talent wasn't particularly outstanding to begin with, but from the very beginning of his cultivation, he was extremely cautious and cherished his life, which is why he barely managed to become a Foundation Establishment expert. He only broke through after passing the sixtieth level, so his lifespan wasn't very long.
After more than forty years of cultivation, he was fortunate enough to obtain a breakthrough opportunity a year and a half ago, thus breaking through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.
To date, he has cultivated for nearly 130 years. He wants to cultivate to the late stage of Foundation Establishment in the remaining 70 years or so, and then to the peak of Foundation Establishment, so as to break through to the Purple Mansion stage.
It's fair to say that the hope is extremely slim.
At least, given his current situation, there is basically no hope for him; he lacks both talent and resources.
However, if he could subdue this fire python and make it his own, he could seize some opportunities. If all else failed, he could put it up for auction. The value of a Foundation Establishment stage fire python is unimaginable, and he could easily obtain a large amount of resources, allowing him to glimpse the Upper Realm Purple Mansion in his lifetime!
This was enough to make him take the risk, suppressing his innate cautious and life-saving instincts, and risk everything for it.
