Chapter 1761 Defeat (1)
Although Yao Huang had suppressed his strength, it did not mean his perception was weakened. The fact that Yun Lintian could appear behind him without him knowing was unbelievable.
Yao Huang didn't even turn around as a black claw suddenly emerged from his back, shooting straight at Yun Lintian.
Bang!
The black claw mercilessly pierced into Yun Lintian's chest, but instead of blood, his entire body shattered into light particles once more.
At the same time, Yun Lintian reappeared in front of Yao Huang and swung his sword towards his head. The sword ignited with the Vermilion Bird flames, causing the natural barrier around Yao Huang's body to disperse immediately.
The dark gleam residing in Yao Huang's eyes condensed violently. His wrist shook as he swung the dark sword in his hand, slicing through the air.
BOOM!
There was a massive explosion, and Yao Huang was forced to take a few steps back. A burning sensation made him subconsciously glance at his hand, and he saw the Vermilion Bird flames burning vigorously on his sword.
Yao Huang raised his eyebrows in surprise and swiftly swung the sword, extinguishing the flames.
The dark aura gathered around the sword, devouring the Vermilion Bird flames entirely.
In that instant, Yun Lintian appeared from above and thrust his sword, which burst with a radiant white light, towards Yao Huang's head.
"You have perfectly mastered the light element and the Shadow Step." Yao Huang raised his head to look at Yun Lintian and said.
An intense surge of dark energy erupted from his body, engulfing the light emitted by Yun Lintian. At this moment, the light on Yun Lintian's sword was no different from that of a tiny candle in the dark night.
Swoosh!
The Heaven Piercing Sword failed to hit its target, and Yao Huang disappeared into the darkness.
Yun Lintian was once again unable to locate Yao Huang's position.
"You're not bad, but again, this is my territory." Yao Huang's voice resounded as a massive commotion erupted in the darkness behind Yun Lintian.
Everything happened quickly, and Yun Lintian couldn't react in time.
The dark sword suddenly stabbed into Yun Lintian's back and burst out.
Boom!
Yun Lintian's body exploded into pieces directly under Yao Huang's attack.
"Hm?" Yao Huang frowned slightly. He was confident that it was Yun Lintian's actual body. How could it become fake again?
He thought he had already seen through Yun Lintian's trick of combining the light element and the Shadow Step, but it didn't seem to be the case now.
Yao Huang's eyes suddenly constricted, and his pupils immediately enlarged, turning his entire eyes black. It was one of his techniques, Darkness Overseer.
Instantly, Yao Huang saw several figures appear before his eyes. Except for Hongyue and the others, at least fifty more people were spread around the arena. This scene confused Yao Huang even more.
At that moment, the figure closest to Yao Huang suddenly moved. Yun Lintian quickly appeared behind him, accompanied by a formidable surge of Vermilion Bird flames.
"What kind of technique is this?" Yao Huang lunged forward and swung his dark sword at Yun Lintian, instantly killing him.
When Yun Lintian "died," another figure immediately emerged before Yao Huang. This time, it brought forth Golden Crow flames.
Yao Huang frowned for the first time. No matter how he looked at it, Yun Lintian, who appeared in front of him, wasn't an illusion but his true body. But how did he manage to disappear every time?
Feeling the terrifying power, Yao Huang had no choice but to launch his attack on Yun Lintian. A similar scene happened once more. Yun Lintian was mercilessly cut in half and exploded into particles of light.
Outside the arena, Yao Jie was stunned by the scene. He had never thought that his master would be manipulated by Yun Lintian.
Meanwhile, Xian An glanced at Jin Long and asked. "Did you teach him?"
"No," Jin Long shook his head. "I'm merely helping him realize his potential."
In Jin Long's eyes, Yun Lintian was a raw gem that needed to be polished. He had the potential but never showcased his brilliance due to his lack of experience.
Jin Long simply taught Yun Lintian how to use his power more efficiently, and the rest was due to Yun Lintian's own efforts.
"What's going on?" Master Bai asked because he couldn't see the situation in the arena.
"Nothing much. Yun Lintian currently has the upper hand." Xian An replied.
Master Bai and Hongyue were surprised to hear this. Previously, it was evident that Yao Huang was superior in every aspect. How could Yun Lintian gain the upper hand now?
Yao Huang quickly calmed down. As someone who had lived for over a million years, there hadn't been much to surprise him for a long time.
He raised his sword, and devilish flames immediately lit up. Since he couldn't locate Yun Lintian's true body, he might as well kill all of his clones.
"Rupture." Yao Huang uttered, and the devilish flames on the sword instantly engulfed the arena.
Several of Yun Lintian's figures were instantly engulfed in flames and burned into nothingness.
When the flames subsided, Yao Huang gazed around but couldn't see anyone.
Suddenly, he sensed a threat from below and immediately realized that Yun Lintian had been lurking in his shadow all this time.
Instantly, Yao Huang stabbed the sword into the ground beneath him, unleashing a powerful surge of dark energy that erupted and shattered the earth.
"You guessed it wrong." Yun Lintian's voice resounded above as he swung the sword, enveloped by Vermilion Bird flames, towards Yao Huang's head.
Yao Huang's expression changed slightly when he realized he had been tricked again.
"That's enough!" Yao Huang spoke coldly.
Ripp—
The devilish light flashed, cutting open the space between Yun Lintian and Yao Huang.
At the same time, an irresistible suction force immediately enveloped the entire arena.
Instantly, Yun Lintian was pulled into the spatial rift that Yao Huang had cut open and disappeared completely into it.
Bang!
The spatial rift closed immediately afterward, and silence returned to the arena.
"This is bad." Xian An frowned when she saw this.
Jin Long raised his eyebrows slightly but offered no comment.
Meanwhile, Yao Jie was relieved to see this. As long as Yun Lintian was "devoured," he had no chance of making a comeback.
"Congrat—" Yao Jie was about to speak, but his expression suddenly changed when he saw Yun Lintian appear behind Yao Huang, holding the sword high above his head.
"Wrong again."
