Chapter 446: Chapter 442: Chaos Sword Qi
Lin Feichen was consumed by rage.
He was, after all, the sixth-ranked disciple on the Saint Institute’s Holy Stele. Yet, even with a weapon, he had been unable to withstand a single one of his opponent’s moves.
To lose an arm in a single exchange—it was a disgrace. An utter humiliation!
Such shame could only be washed away with Lin Hao’s blood.
As Lin Feichen’s roar echoed, a terrifying phenomenon materialized in the sky above the Trial Forest.
Hazy mists converged, pressing down like the collapsing heavens and giving rise to an aura of utter annihilation.
Hundreds of meters away, the bodies of many onlookers began to tremble uncontrollably, until they could no longer even stand.
The terrifying pressure stole their breath, making them feel as if they were suffocating.
Despite losing an arm, Lin Feichen’s terrifying might did not diminish. Instead, it swelled to an extreme, becoming more tyrannical than ever.
Within the Trial Forest, Lin Hao’s expression grew solemn as his vigilance soared.
It was clear Lin Feichen was about to risk his life.
"Lin Hao, today you will witness the might of a King Body!" Lin Feichen roared.
At this moment, Lin Feichen’s hair stood on end, making him look like a crazed demon. A ball of green light began to pulse at his dantian, growing brighter and brighter.
Hundreds of meters away, an unknown number of people collapsed to the ground, too weak to rise again.
They all felt a terrifying pressure that sent tremors through the very depths of their souls.
This was the pressure of a superior physique!
A King Body was one in a million. When such a physique unleashed its Bloodline Power, its suppression over lower-level Martial Artists was absolute.
Aside from the entrance passages occupied by the five great divine sects, very few in the other passages could remain standing.
Even Sword One, in another passage, was forced to retreat. The sword cradled in his arms hummed and vibrated, resisting the terrifying pressure emanating from Lin Feichen.
In the passages of the five great divine sects, several people’s expressions turned grim. The representatives of the sects, in particular, looked displeased.
Although their cultivation levels were far higher than Lin Feichen’s, they were all affected by the pressure he was now releasing.
Yin Duwen had initially breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Feichen unleash his Bloodline Power. But when his gaze fell upon Lin Hao, his expression changed dramatically.
"A King Body! He has a King Body too? How is that possible?!" The next moment, Yin Duwen cried out in astonishment.
Yin Duwen had seen a similar ball of green light flickering within Lin Hao’s body.
Nanny Lu’s eyes flew wide open!
She was well aware of Lin Hao’s past. Ever since she’d learned of Lin Wu’s physique, she had guessed what had happened. She was already shocked that Lin Hao had managed to recover at all.
But now, Lin Hao had somehow transformed from having a common physique into possessing a King Body.
It was beyond anything she could have imagined.
Huh!
Even Su Molixi involuntarily took a step forward, letting out a soft gasp of surprise.
Su Molixi was also well aware of Lin Hao’s physique. Back then, he had only a Spirit Body!
She never imagined that after such a short time, she would see him again to find he had attained a King Body.
A Martial Artist’s physique was thought to be immutable; she had never heard of a bloodline being able to evolve!
’No, wait! I remember an ancient text mentioning a Cultivation Technique that allows one to devour another’s bloodline to achieve evolution. Could it be...’ The flicker of worry in Su Molixi’s eyes, hidden behind her veil, vanished as quickly as it appeared.
She could think of no other explanation. ’If Lin Hao truly practices such a Cultivation Technique, he will become an enemy to the entire world!’
Before Su Molixi could finish her thought, a massive collision erupted within the Trial Forest.
The shockwave produced by two Soul Gathering Realm Martial Artists unleashing their Bloodline Power was earth-shattering.
The moment the collision happened, countless onlookers’ faces filled with despair. They felt the very real threat of death.
They had a terrifying premonition that the shockwave from the collision could rip them to shreds, yet they were powerless to resist.
Many sealed their Sixth Sense and shut their eyes in despair.
After what felt like an eternity, they opened their eyes to find themselves completely unharmed.
In their confusion, they looked up and saw two figures standing in the sky before them.
"The Vice-Dean and Palace Master Su saved us!" someone cried out.
"Quick, look at the Trial Forest!" Another shout directed everyone’s gaze back to the forest.
One look was all it took for them to gasp in horror.
In the middle of the Trial Forest, a massive crater had appeared in the once-open ground. It was a hundred meters across and dozens of meters deep.
And this was *after* Duan Wushuang and Su Molixi had intervened. One could only imagine how terrifying the shockwave would have been otherwise.
Now, Lin Hao and Lin Feichen stood on opposite edges of the crater, blood trickling from the corners of both their mouths.
"You... You’re still alive!" Lin Feichen spat, his eyes locked on Lin Hao.
The Emperor Art circulated within him. Lin Hao heard him and replied coolly, "You will definitely die before I do."
"Hahaha! The moment I unleashed my Bloodline Power, I gave up any thought of surviving. Even if you live through this, using your own Bloodline Power will turn you back into a useless piece of trash!" Lin Feichen laughed maniacally.
At this point, he finally understood just how terrifying Lin Hao was. There was no longer any need for pretense.
Lin Hao was absurdly strong; ordinary Martial Artists were no match for him at all.
Lin Feichen’s initial sense of superiority had long since vanished.
"Utterly clueless," Lin Hao bit out two words.
Just then, Lin Feichen vanished. In his place hovered a sword—a giant, green sword.
A hazy mist swirled around the giant green sword.
The next moment, the massive green sword tore through the sky, slashing down toward Lin Hao.
Its movement was unnervingly slow, like a slumbering beast stirring.
But as the sword descended, Duan Wushuang’s expression changed drastically. She thrust a palm toward the entrance of the Trial Forest, and Su Molixi did the same.
In an instant, everyone—except for those in the passages of the five great divine sects—vanished from the entrances and reappeared in the square outside the Saint Institute as the portals snapped shut.
Sword One stood before the crowd, his gaze fixed on the high walls of the sealed forest. His expression was utterly grim as he uttered three words: "Chaos Sword Qi!"
"Uncle Sword One, was that really Chaos Sword Qi?!" Zuo Ming asked, the shock still evident in his eyes.
When the green sword had torn through the sky, he had been overcome with a sense of powerlessness. It was a realm far beyond his reach.
Now, hearing Sword One speak those three words, Zuo Ming was horrified.
Even Zuo Yi’s eyes filled with terror as he too looked toward Sword One.
"If I’m not mistaken, Lin Feichen’s Divine Soul is a sword. He just unleashed his Bloodline Power and Divine Soul simultaneously. The Cultivation Technique he practices is likely meant to evolve Chaos Qi. At first, it showed signs of Chaos Qi but was still a far cry from the real thing. But this final attack, while still not a true success, has formed the embryonic wisp of Chaos Qi."
Similar words were spoken in the only entrance passage to the Trial Forest that remained open.
"One eye holds Yang Qi, the other Yin Qi. When yin and yang unite, they manifest chaos! Lin Feichen was on the verge of success. A pity he won’t live much longer. However..."
The speaker was Yin Duwen. He trailed off, a flicker of a smile in his eyes.
’With Lin Feichen unleashing his bloodline, his Divine Soul, and that supreme Cultivation Technique to manifest a wisp of Chaos Qi, Lin Hao’s death is certain!’
