Chapter 93: Frightening Battle Power - Chapter 94: Good News
I understand.
Yang Tong released his own equipment, a suit of golden armor and a three-foot green sword.
"Up!" Lin Yueyin spat out a word, standing still on the spot, coldly staring at Yang Tong.
Twenty-odd Wu Ling Masters closing in on him was a nightmare and a disaster for any Shen Nian Master!
Ke Yangtong is not an ordinary divine thought master. With his cultivation of the Nine Turns Primordial Art, he has a purity of true yuan that can rival that of a Sky level expert, and his physical strength can also compare to that of a Ninth Level Peak Master of the Earthly Yuan Realm.
"Green lotus blooms!" Yang Tong's sword flashed, a set of sword moves danced out, spiritual energy gathered, true yuan condensed, and in the air, green lotuses truly bloomed.
The surrounding Lin family cultivators were stunned for a moment, and one of the divine intent practitioners actually came up with such a profound martial skill? However, no one took it seriously, as the divine intent practitioner had used up all his martial skills. Wasn't this just a case of "the clever rabbit having only three tricks"?
"Hmph, all bark and no bite!" The blossoming blue lotus flowers didn't cause any harm to the crowd of martial artists, who couldn't help but sneer. It was completely unlike Yang Tong's powerful and deadly attack when he killed eight bandits at the edge of Iron Wing Mountains.
"Tiger Tooth Seven Swords!"
"Heaven-Cleaving Slash!"
"Sweep away thousands of troops!"
A group of martial artists all brought out their signature moves and attacked Yang Tong together.
"Green lotus crazy dance!" The green lotus in the sky danced with rhythm, sometimes drifting away, sometimes disappearing, sometimes dazzling, and sometimes wildly excited.
The strange thing is that this move still seems like an illusion, without any lethal power.
Xin Ding, Ding, Ding" - The ultimate move of a group of Wu Ling masters hit Yang Tong's body, but was completely blocked by the war cloak.
"This, this is a 4th-grade battle attire? You can actually use a 4th-grade battle attire!" The crowd was stunned for a moment. To know that theoretically, even Earth-level cultivators could use 4th-grade battle attires, but it was extremely rare for an Earth-level cultivator to be able to truly equip a 4th-grade battle attire. Only a handful of geniuses and the most exceptional among Earth-level cultivators had the pure Yuan degree to use it.
The defensive power of the four-product golden battle clothes was naturally different from the ordinary, and the weapons used by these grandmaster-level martial artists were at most three-product golden grade. With martial skills, it was difficult to break through the defense with one strike, so Yang Tong managed to block the attacks of a group of martial artists.
"Hmph, keep attacking, I don't believe he can hold on for much longer." Angrily roared the second master of Dark Tiger, war clothes also require the user to drive with spiritual power, continuously attacking until the opponent's spiritual power is exhausted, naturally it will be the time of death.
"Green Lotus Solitary Branch!" Suddenly, the green lotus flowers converged into a gigantic green lotus, blooming with a loud "hua", its sword energy swirling like a dragon, proud and aloof, standing alone in the world.
"Life and death are boundless!" The massive green lotus released a sword aura that transformed into clusters of green lotuses, blooming and withering in the air, withering and blooming, beautiful and dazzling.
Yang Tong withstood the attack, swallowed a Rejuvenation Pill, replenished his True Qi, and held a high-quality crystal in his other hand to absorb it.
For the time being, it can still hold on.
At this moment, the four moves of Qinglian Sword were made, and the sky was filled with beautiful lotus flowers.
"Qinglian Sword Technique First Style: Qinglian Stance!" Yang Tong combined the four moves into one, transforming it into the true Qinglian Sword Technique, and struck down with a single sword!
"Swish swish swish", the originally harmless lotus flower suddenly transformed into countless deadly swords, dancing in the sky, the blooming of the sword-like lotus, filling the sky with flying blood.
"Not good!" Almost everyone realized the danger, but it was too late. The nearby Wu Ling masters were instantly surrounded and killed by the endless sword, twenty-five Wu Ling masters attacked, the weakest of whom were above level 5, as a result of this sword strike, eighteen people died on the spot without a complete corpse, seven people were seriously injured, five people were disabled, two lost more than half their combat effectiveness.
Dark Tiger II took charge, made a decisive move, relying on his 8th-level cultivation to use his companion as a shield, and retreated in time. He suffered some injuries but no life-threatening ones. As he exited, he fired a signal flare into the sky.
This was the signal, and after receiving the signal, more than 50 reserve troops lurking outside the valley rushed into the valley like a spring.
Yang Tong's divine sense swept out, and he knew that more than 50 powerful beings of the Earth level had surged in from outside the valley. His face sank, it seemed that the divination was not wrong, and this was indeed a great ominous sign. This sword of his seemed to have boundless power, but its consumption was extremely high, and it could not be released instantly. Using such a move when exchanging blows with an expert was simply seeking death.
The other side has many people and momentum, and a war of attrition can exhaust itself.
"Useless thing!" Lin Yueyin coldly snorted, taking out her own weapon. "What a beautiful sword, what a powerful sword! The techniques you're using are probably not just ordinary Xuan-level martial skills, right? A Divine Intent Master, yet possessing combat strength that's no less than that of a top-notch Earth Ninth Level Peak Martial Spirit Master - you've been hiding your true abilities very deeply indeed!"
"Hehe, each other." Yang Tong's figure suddenly rose, about to break through Lin Yueyin. Charging eastward, Lin Yueyin was in the east, no doubt, breaking through her would be victory. "I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm a formal member of the Mercenary Guild's Genius Department, don't you have any skills to show for it?"
Lin Yue's eyes narrowed, and she coldly snorted: "You think I'll believe you? Bring out the Mercenary Guild's exclusive battle attire and let me take a look?"
Yang Tong suddenly felt depressed, recalling the time he researched armor and had sliced up the clothes sent by the Mercenary Guild. At that time, he thought to himself, "It's just an ordinary three-star golden battle garment, nothing special."
"Want to run? Not that easy!" Lin Yueyin saw Yang Tong wanting to run, wanting to get close, but was blocked by Yang Tong's Yu Qing Bao Yun sword. "Unexpectedly, your Nian Li secret technique is not weak either."
"Big sister, tie him up." Anhu Er and another strong Lin family member, although injured, still had half their combat strength after taking medicine, and it was no problem for them to assist in attacking and tying up Yang Tong.
Just then, the reinforcements were getting closer and closer. Yang Tong took advantage of the gap to throw out more than 100 spiritual explosive grenades. This thing was extremely difficult to refine, and the cost was high. Yang Tong's stockpile was only over 300, and he threw out one-third of it at once, causing the scene to be extremely chaotic. On the spot, several weak people were blown up and killed, especially the five people who had been beaten by Yang Tong into severe injuries and lost their combat effectiveness, and were blown to pieces.
"You can't escape!" Lin Yueyin was furious, but as a Wu Ling Master, the Eight Killing Styles required close combat to be effective. "Behold my Confusion Web!" With that, Lin Yueyin summoned the ancient spirit weapon, the Confusion Web.
Shen Nian Shi can use martial skills, and similarly, Wu Ling Shi can also use some special mental energy weapons, such as the Confusion God Net, which is a throwing device that uses divine thought to guide its direction and spiritual power to drive the divine soldiers.
The Kong Shen web surged forward with the wind, instantly blocking Yang Tong's forward momentum. Yang Tong secretly cried out in dismay, could it be that this Eastern direction wasn't the way to break through? No, no, there mustn't be any mistake.
"Heaven's Eye, open!" Yang Tong activated the power of the copper coin, and a spiritual eye opened on his forehead. From this eye, he saw that this world was composed of countless lines and planes, with various laws and rules intertwined together.
Yang Tong used his Heaven's Eye to see the trajectory of space and stepped on it with his foot. He instantly disappeared from sight.
"This is the Jade Clear Secret Method, Void Step! Legend has it that when cultivated to the extreme, one can shrink the earth into a cow and take a step of one light-year. However, this stepping method requires treading on the trajectory of spatial movement, without having a certain understanding of spatial laws, it's just an illusion."
But Tianyan's existence made Yangtong take a step forward at this moment.
Yang Tong took this step out and instantly appeared behind Lin Yueyin.
At that moment, Yang Tong's hands formed a seal and cast the Five Elements Formation Seal! His hands smoothly pressed onto Lin Yueyin's back.
The so-called Forbidden Law is an attacking secret technique that has evolved from the combination of forbidden seals and law principles, possessing extraordinary sealing and controlling effects.
Where had Lin Yueyin ever seen such a pace that pierced through the void? This was not something that could be touched by the category of the Earth level. When she came to her senses, Yang Tong's hands were already pressed on her battle clothes, and the power of the seal directly ignored the defense of the battle clothes and sealed her entirely. In fact, such a mysterious seal was not something that she, who was also at the Earth level, could be immune to.
Lin Yueyin, apart from her consciousness being able to move, all other spiritual powers and physical body were completely immobilized. She couldn't understand how someone could actually escape the capture of the Heaven's Net, especially since this ancient spirit soldier was a secret weapon given by her master to deal with Zhao Xuefeng.
Yang Tong's methods were too numerous, and many of them had never been heard or seen before. Although Yang Tong's cultivation was comparable to these people, the height they stood on was vastly different.
With the loss of Lin Yue's spiritual power, the defensive shield on her battle clothes disappeared. Yang Tong recalled Qingfeng Sword and placed it on Lin Yue's neck, saying calmly: "Everyone stay still, put down your weapons, take off your battle clothes, otherwise I'll kill her."
"How dare you! Let go of the young lady, or else I'll make sure your family is destroyed and you die without a place to be buried." Although countless people were furious, they didn't dare take another step forward.
"I've already lost everything, now I'm just a dead man walking. If I can take down a beauty like you with me, at least I won't be lonely on the road to hell." Yang Tong threatened fearlessly.
The others in the Lin family were speechless at this remark. The other party had already lost their home and family, what was there to threaten?
"Give you three seconds, or else," Yang Tong said as he drew a line on Lin Yue's mouth.
"Let's go!" a strong man from the Lin family shouted loudly, leading dozens of people on the periphery.
Fifty-odd men dropped their spiritual equipment, war clothes and weapons, as well as their storage rings.
Yang Tong used his mental power to control and gather all these things.
"Alright, now shake off all your clothes quickly!" Yang Tong shouted loudly.
Everyone had no choice but to follow suit, and more than 50 men stood in several rows, the scene was quite spectacular.
"Ah scoundrel, rascal!..." Lin Yueyin finally spoke up, never having begged for mercy, and was calm to the point of not seeming human.
"Tell the master of the Lin family, I am indeed a member of the Mercenary Guild, and this account will be settled slowly later."
"This beautiful woman will serve as interest for now, help me greet her whole family, we'll meet again. Haha...” Yang Tong drew out the Chuan Yun Leng, pulled Lin Yue Yin, transformed into a flowing light, and rushed straight into the high-altitude cloud layer, then disappeared without a trace.
Chapter 94 Good News The numerous strongmen of the Lin family were instantly disheartened. More than seventy people, divided into two encirclement circles, with the twenty-five strongest cultivators inside and the weaker fifty or so distributed outside to prevent their opponents from escaping and clearing the battlefield.
But as a result of the battle, the Lin family suffered heavy losses, and their target was taken away by the eldest sister. Don't think that a strong person at the Earth level is worthless, in this battle, the Lin family lost 23 high-level experts at the middle and upper levels of the Earth level, and the Dark Tiger directly reduced its personnel to only two people left.
Such means are too astonishing, this opponent is only seventeen years old, with a cultivation base of Earth Five Levels. With great potential, not to be underestimated!
The Lin family received the news and was shocked, Lin Jin's anger was even more furious, ordering the mobilization of all the family's forces to find Yang Tong, regardless of whether he was dead or alive, and also to safely rescue the eldest sister.
Lin Jin Kuang was so angry that he wanted to implicate Yang Tong's relatives and friends, but he couldn't even do that. Yang Tong's family members had passed away, but he did have some friends, such as Zhao Zhengfeng, Jian Yizhi, and other spiritual tool craftsmen and classmates. But would he dare to go to the Imperial Advanced Academy? Would he dare to do something like that?
This is good. Now that this kind of family, which can feed the whole family when one person eats their fill and has great potential for revenge, really makes Lin Jin feel uneasy eating and sleeping.
"Someone, send the news that the young lady has been taken away to her master's door." Lin Jin's face changed color and he smiled slightly, this was also a good opportunity.
The Lin family went crazy and generally used all their strength to find people, other family forces also got the news.
The host of the Zhao family was overjoyed, this is indeed a good news! The Lin family lost so many good players and even threw in a young Tianhe, how could the Zhao family not be happy?
"Father, something's wrong! Yang Tong sent over a batch of spiritual tools and left a message saying he can't refine any more spiritual equipment for our family for the time being." Zhao Zhengfeng said loudly.
"No big deal, your junior brother is really not a pushover. The Lin family tried to tear their faces apart and wanted to eradicate them, but they ended up killing more than 20 high-ranking masters of the land, capturing Lin Yueyin alive and running away. Who knows where they are now, fleeing for their lives? Where do they have time to refine spiritual tools for us?" The head of the Zhao family didn't care about the spiritual tool issue anyway. After all, there was a 10-year deadline, and the head of the Zhao family also trusted Yang Tong's credibility, otherwise he wouldn't have left a message for Zhao Zhengfeng."
Mercenary Guild, Li Fangxin found Fang Baijiang.
"Chairman, are we just going to watch this?" Li Fangxin asked helplessly. He actually wanted to mobilize some power from the Mercenary Guild's Fallen Star Branch to question Lin Jin Kuang, where did he get the guts to move against someone from the Mercenary Guild?
"This is the rule, I know you're worried about Yang Xiaozi's safety, but that kid is a member of the Genius Department, and this way of cultivating geniuses is set by those above, we can't do anything about it."
Unless Yang Xiaozi uses up one of his chances for help, we can take action openly." Fang Baiyi shook his head and sighed.
"But what about Yang Tong's family? This matter is clearly done by the Lin family, can't we just take action because of Yang Tong's family?" Li Fangxin asked again.
"That's just hearsay, you say it's the Lin family, is it really the Lin family? Where's the evidence?" Fang Bai retorted.
"Guild leader, we are the Mercenary Guild, the most powerful superpower in human civilization. Are you still afraid of a single Lin family?" Li Fangxin asked back angrily, no matter what he was angry about, he was angry anyway.
"Li, rules are rules. We're the ones who make them, so we have to follow them too. I know you're angry, and I'm not happy about it either. But these rules were set by our superiors, and there's nothing we can do about it. If we break the rules, Lingju Technology and the World Bank Union won't let us off easy. This is a matter for the Kingdom's official authorities to handle, we can't interfere." Fang Bai said with emphasis.
The two superpowers of human civilization. They restrain each other, supervise each other, cooperate with each other, and jointly maintain the development and growth of human civilization.
Li Fangxin let out a long sigh and didn't say anything more.
"But we also have things to do, I've already reported this matter to the higher-ups, and orders have been issued from above. All intelligence about Yang Tong is set as non-public guild intelligence, I believe other branches will also receive the news." Fang Bai said with a smile.
"That's the best we can do." Li Fangxin also smiled. The Lin family was just a thousand-year-old family in a third-tier city of the Wangguo Kingdom, with considerable influence in Luoxing City and its subordinate counties, as well as connections in other neighboring third-tier cities. Their reach could extend to dozens of third-tier and second-tier cities. But that's all. If Yang Tong was far away from the Huangyu Kingdom, it would be impossible for the Lin family to find him. Only superpowers like the Mercenary Guild had intelligence networks spanning the entire human world. The Mercenary Guild was not public, so a small family like the Lin's could slowly search for him.
Yang Tong abducted Lin Yueyin and went deep into the wilderness, his whereabouts unknown.
Far away in the southeast of Ba Huagou, 50,000 miles outside a natural cave, Yang Tong sat and rested to recover his true yuan. Within one day, he ran 50,000 miles, which is the amazing part of Chuan Yunleng. If not for changing direction several times midway, it's likely that he would have flown over 60,000 miles.
At this moment, Yang Tong felt the benefits of the first realm of Yi Dao's direction measurement. These few changes in direction were all safe and sound, without any danger.
The entire cave is within the range of the Avoid Heaven Flag's effect. Unless it was an extremely lucky coincidence, there would be absolutely no way for anyone to find their way here.
Yang Tong didn't know the name of this mountain range anymore. It was one of the many branches outside the main Iron Wing Mountain Range. The Imperial Feather Kingdom divided its entire territory into eighty counties, with each county center being a first-class city. Luoxing City belonged to Kui Xing County, but Luoxing City was only one corner of Kui Xing County.
Yang Tong looked at the map for half a day before making a decision, leaving Quixing County and even leaving Huangyu Kingdom.
Yang Tong is a divine thought master and also a certified spiritual tool technician recognized by the Spiritual Tool Technology Company, an identity that is valid throughout the continent. Yang Tong does not worry about being caught as a spy after leaving the kingdom.
In a corner of the mountain cave, Lin Yueyin was sealed and imprisoned. All her spiritual tools and storage rings were taken away by Yang Tong. Adding to his previous gains in Baihua Valley, Yang Tong's wealth increased by nearly 30%.
"Killing and arson, golden belt, it's really not bad." Yang Tong sighed, now he himself was going crazy with poverty, and there were less than 2 billion spiritual coins in his account.
Of course, there are plenty of high-quality crystals and refining materials.
Yang Tong sat down to rest and after half a day had passed, he finally recovered his peak state, with his cultivation slightly improved.
Lin Yueyin was glaring fiercely at Yang Tong, trying to shake off his restraint.
Yang Tong smiled and said: "You don't have to waste your thoughts, my forbidden technique is a strange skill that I accidentally obtained, it's impossible for you to solve."
"What do you want, Yang?" Lin Yueyin asked coldly.
"It's not what I want, but you Lin family are too overbearing. A parent's hatred is not shared with the heavens, if I don't destroy your Lin family, how can I be at peace?" Yang Tong replied coldly.
"Just you? Don't be ridiculous, my Lin family has weathered thousands of years of storms and remains unshakeable. For thousands of years, every generation has had a Sky-level expert holding the fort, especially now that our family's strength is even greater than before. My father will soon break through to the Sky level too. The accumulation of my Lin family over thousands of years can't be shaken by just one small loose cultivator like you! If you want revenge, try again in your next life!" Lin Yueyin's voice was still as cold as ice.
"Is it? You'll see." Yang Tong replied confidently.
No, a family's strength is not just about the family's martial power, but also its foundation. What is foundation? Connections, resources, treasures, and even some hidden trump cards that are unknown to others.
But what about that? Yang Tong didn't believe the Lin family's power could compare to his own progress, a gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late. After going through the battle of Baihu Valley, Yang Tong became even more mature, calm and rational than before.
"Yang Tong, this woman cultivates the Heart Severing Technique. The Heavenly Way has no mercy for those who cultivate this technique, which requires one to sever emotions and desires in order to ascend to the realm of Heaven's Will. If her technique is broken, she will thoroughly fall into depravity! Moreover, this woman is a Dry Cauldron Body, the best dual cultivation cauldron. In the Jade Clear Secret Records, there is a dual cultivation secret method called 'The Yin Yang Ultimate Poem', which not only allows your cultivation to rapidly advance, but also refines and purifies your True Yuan, harmonizing yin and yang. If you can gather the eight Cauldron Bodies, obtain the eight Cauldron Energies, and construct your own small universe..."
"The universe, after becoming an immortal, you will experience unparalleled benefits." Lu Bao suddenly spoke up to advise.
Yang Tong was taken aback, it turned out that Luo Bao had been scanning Lin Yue's situation all the way without saying a word. After hearing Luo Bao's words, Yang Tong was moved, and he was not one of those pedantic and stubborn scholars.
"Is that okay?" Yang Tong searched through the information in his mind and found "Yin Yang Wu Ji Fu". He read it carefully. Without looking, he wouldn't have known. After reading, Yang Tong realized that Yin Yang dual cultivation wasn't as dirty as he had imagined. As the saying goes, solitary yin does not last, lone yang does not give birth. When yin and yang combine,
It not only implies the way of heaven and earth giving birth to each other, but also contains the mystery of the origin of life.
This "Yin Yang Wu Ji Fu" has a total of three volumes, including the general volume and the Yin Yang two volumes. The general volume is the principle and outline of this heart method, which explains the mystery of yin yang, the essence of life, and the subtlety of the universe. The Lesser Yang Volume is naturally prepared for male practitioners, while the Tai Yin Volume is prepared for female practitioners. When both parties practice these two volumes, each time they practice together, there will be a miraculous effect of eliminating the false and retaining the true, removing heart demons, and purifying the mind.
What is going to be true? People are born in the world, experience the hardships of the red dust, grow up and become adults. At this time, people have actually been "polluted" by the red dust. The ancient practitioners, also known as cultivators of truth, pursued the elimination of falsehoods and the preservation of truths. They cultivated a state of mind that was unmoving, with a clear and pure crystal-like realm. This is a state of cultivation, and those who possess this state will have unimaginable benefits for their future path of cultivation.
This realm is not that no one has achieved it, but it's hard to maintain this realm. This realm isn't accomplished once and for all, but requires oneself to maintain it, constantly wiping the mind clean, without staining with even a speck of dust.
