Not far away, Bai Yiyi went to Huangfu Kong's side. Her injuries had healed slightly, but she was still covered in blood.
When she saw Lin Jinglong make his move.
A hint of admiration appeared in her eyes.
"I have already acknowledged him as the new Heavenly Dao Sword Master. Compared to him, I am still far from being good enough."
Huangfu Kong glanced at the girl beside him.
It's truly remarkable that someone as proud and stubborn as her would acknowledge Lin Jinglong.
But he kept sighing in his heart.
"Don't die! This crumbling Great Xia needs someone like you."
Huangfu Kong looked up at the figure in the air.
Further away, Daoist Yunxian stopped in his tracks. He did not actually leave, but led more than a hundred disciples and outer disciples to watch the battle from a distance.
"Master! Lin Jinglong has indeed released the power of the Heavenly Dao. Could it be true, as he said, that his body can withstand the unrefined power of the Heavenly Dao and survive?"
"Of course he's dead!"
Daoist Yunxian snorted coldly.
And things seemed to be going as he had predicted.
When Lin Jinglong unleashed a divine punishment-like sword strike with the power of the Heavenly Dao, his arm, along with the Heavenly Dao sword in his hand, instantly shattered into mist and dissipated into the night.
But the sword energy was unleashed by Lin Jinglong.
Yet it is incredibly powerful!
Even the supreme being cannot unleash the power of this sword!
Both Lin Jinglong and Lin Ruchu, who were at opposite ends of the sword aura, were stunned.
"The scent of this sword energy..."
"How come it's the same attack that inexplicably appeared within the immortal sects?"
"In other words, within the Immortal Sect, they severed Lin Ruchu's physical body, severely injured me, rendered me unconscious for a week, and shattered the power of the entire Holy Realm!"
"It's actually the Heavenly Dao?"
Lin Jinglong accidentally discovered this big secret.
Lin Ruchu, on the other side, naturally noticed it as well, facing that powerful force that filled him with both immense power and profound fear.
He even doubted that he was seeing things.
"Could it be an intoxicating illusion?"
"puff!"
It's like a balloon that's been chopped up with a cleaver.
His Yin Spirit body, after being struck by that white sword energy, still couldn't withstand it and instantly exploded into countless fragments.
Lin Ruchu seems to have been completely annihilated!
Lin Jinglong was stunned. He had only released a small portion of the unrefined ninety percent of the Heavenly Dao power, yet he had already shattered Lin Ruchu.
"Lin Jinglong!"
Suddenly, a roar reached his ears.
The shattered remains of the Yin spirits rushed toward the Immortal Soul Devouring Array above their heads, and the gray thread that was already connected to Lin Ruchu suddenly grew stronger.
In an instant, 100,000 innocent souls were devoured and refined!
When the gray ribbon returned to the center of the three ascension platforms, Lin Ruchu's Yin spirit body was re-formed.
He looked at Lin Jinglong with a surprised and uncertain expression.
"Why...why was he able to unleash that attack? Could it be that he truly possesses the power of divine punishment?"
"If I hadn't activated the Immortal Soul Devouring Array, which allowed me to absorb these undead souls in time to replenish myself, I would have already been annihilated!"
"It's just a hair's breadth away, only a hair's breadth away!"
This was the first time Lin Ruchu had felt fear when facing Lin Jinglong. Before, he had felt anger, resentment, and deep hatred.
This time, however, he finally began to feel afraid.
Lin Jinglong looked up at him. Although he had lost an arm, he was very satisfied with the power of the Heavenly Dao just now.
"That attack just now was merely a trial run, yet it already shattered him. What if I were to unleash even more power of the Heavenly Dao next time?"
Lin Jinglong grinned maliciously as he charged toward the aerial ascension platform.
"Again?"
Lin Ruchu let out a mournful cry.
He frantically absorbed the undead energy from the great formation, but no matter how fast he was, it was impossible for him to digest five million undead in a short time.
But Lin Jinglong's next attack was already imminent!
In the distance, Daoist Yunxian looked on incredulously, scratching his head in disbelief.
"No, that's not right at all!"
"If that attack had been unleashed by me, even with my acquired Dao body that I've nurtured for over two hundred years, I would have exploded and died instantly!"
"Lin Jinglong only had one hand blown off?"
Is this reasonable?
The Taoist Yunxian was inexplicably angry.
He looked like he was gritting his teeth.
At this moment, Nangong Hongwu appeared beside him. Seeing his appearance, she showed a thoughtful expression.
“Uncle Yunxian, haven’t you realized it yet? My senior brother didn’t lie to you. He can indeed use his body to release the powerful and chaotic power of the Heavenly Dao in an orderly way.”
"What makes him capable? If he had an innate Dao body, perhaps he could achieve this, but he would have to refine the power of the Heavenly Dao first!"
Daoist Yunxian turned his head and glared at Nangong Hongwu.
She pondered for a moment and said, "Who said my senior brother doesn't have an innate Dao body? It's just that he never intended to merge with the Heavenly Dao. He only wanted to forcibly tame the Heavenly Dao, so it took him some time and he could only tame one-tenth of it."
"That's why, unlike the legendary innate Dao body, one cannot easily merge with the power of the Heavenly Dao after obtaining it."
"What? Tame the Heavenly Dao?"
The voice of the Daoist Yunxian became extremely shrill.
He looked at Nangong Hongwu with a horrified expression.
It was like hearing the world's most terrifying story.
Nangong Hongwu fell into deep thought, and then slowly said, "It was precisely because my senior brother successfully tamed one-tenth of the power of the Heavenly Dao, coupled with the affinity between his innate Dao body and the Heavenly Dao, that he was able to release the remaining power of the Heavenly Dao in an orderly manner."
"What he pursued was not to be in harmony with the heavens."
"Instead, it devours the Heavenly Dao!"
Nangong Hongwu had already guessed Lin Jinglong's strategy.
Even she found it unbelievable, but as it turned out, Lin Jinglong's idea was right, and he really could do it.
Otherwise, how can we explain that attack just now was terrifying to the extreme? Even if a supreme being were to unleash it, they would inevitably explode and die.
But Lin Jinglong only lost an arm?
Yunxian Daoist trembled all over. He finally remembered what Qinglong Daoist meant when he handed him the Heavenly Dao Pill and asked him to take it to Lin Jinglong.
"Old man Qinglong, you said you wanted me to deliver the Heavenly Dao Pill and broaden my horizons, you wouldn't mean this, would you?"
The Taoist Yunxian felt a chill run down his spine.
At this moment, the aftershocks of the power of Heaven swept in from the distant manor, and Lin Jinglong's second attack on Lin Ruchu once again blossomed under the night sky.
This time it wasn't sword energy.
After all, the Heavenly Dao Sword was already shattered.
Instead, he unleashed a powerful punch with his other hand!
