Chapter 72: War for a Thousand Nights!
On the hillside, there were no tall trees, and even the grass was only a little short, and because of the cold winter that was coming soon, the grass was slightly withered. "The autumn wind is bleak, Lin Tian, this place is just right for your burial!" Five meters away from Lin Tian, Qian Ye said coldly, the mountain wind blowing his clothes, adding a few points to the solemn atmosphere! Lin Tian shook his head slightly: "You're wrong, the person who will die here today is absolutely not me, but you!" "I won't die here, since being deceived by her, I've been practicing my martial arts diligently, just to play with the beauties of the world, and now this goal has not been achieved, how can I die?!" Qian Ye laughed maniacally.
Lin Tian let out a soft sigh: "Qian Ye, you've gone mad, you shouldn't impose your suffering on others!" "Hmph, Lin Tian, do I need you to tell me what to do? Take this!" Qian Ye said, swinging his sword from five meters away, its fierce energy shooting straight at Lin Tian. Lin Tian was startled but not panicked, using the Lingbo Micro Step to dodge the attack by shifting his body to the left. "Lingbo Micro Step? No wonder you dared to challenge me! But can you use it to escape with your life? That's a question!" Qian Ye laughed maniacally, his curved sword transforming into a bright, snow-like glow that enveloped Lin Tian.
Because he had learned from Xiao Ling earlier that Qian Ye's internal strength was lower than his by about ten years, Lin Tian did not feel flustered in his heart. With his internal strength being higher than the opponent's, plus having the Lingbo Micro Step, this almost made him invincible. As long as he found an opportunity to use the North Ming Divine Art, the outcome would be immediately clear!
Qian Ye's swordsmanship was extremely fierce, far surpassing the snake he had encountered in Shuang Lin City. If Lin Tian were still the same as before, even with his exquisite Ling Bo Wei Bu, after a dozen or so moves, he would likely be lying on the ground. However, the current Lin Tian was no longer comparable to his former self, his internal strength having increased by several times, and his battle experience against many top-notch experts had also risen exponentially! Therefore, despite Qian Ye's attack being like a raging storm, Lin Tian remained standing in the midst of the tempest.
A battle requires a calm mind, and Lin Tian had already understood this after going through several battles. So, even if he couldn't find an opportunity for the time being, his heart wasn't anxious at all.
"Qian Ye, do you think you can kill me, who has mastered the Ling Bo Micro Step, with just these few clumsy knife moves? Isn't that a bit ridiculous?" Lin Tian said coldly while dodging Qian Ye's curved knife. If there was no opportunity, then he would create one. When people get angry, they easily reveal their weaknesses. However, this was also a double-edged sword, as the consequence of enraging Qian Ye would make his knife moves even more ferocious, and the weakness would only appear in the low tide after that ferocity!
"Enrage me? Very well, but I fear you won't be able to bear the consequences!" Qian Ye let out a long whistle, and his knife's momentum increased by threefold. The fierce knife aura swept across the ground, leaving deep scars, and the withered yellow grass was blown up into the air! Lin Tianyi accidentally got a shallow cut on his left arm, and thin streams of blood flowed out, dyeing his sleeve red. His heart skipped a beat, but this made him even more focused! With Qian Ye's curved knife, Ming Yue, being so sharp, even if he used all his internal energy, wherever it cut would be severed!
Three minutes later, the entire mountain city was destroyed beyond recognition. The originally flat ground was left with countless knife marks, and even the giant rocks on the slope were cut and blasted into countless fragments by the fierce knife energy. Qian Ye's clothes were still intact, but Lin Tian's clothes had become a sieve-like garment. It seemed that Lin Tian was downwind, but in fact, it wasn't so. At this time, Qian Ye's heart was already slightly anxious, with an ominous premonition gradually emerging in his mind.
"Am I going to lose? No, I won't lose, I won't!" Qian Ye shouted loudly in his heart, his eyes suddenly becoming bloodshot! "Master, be careful, he's having a mental breakdown, his combat strength will increase by half within five minutes!" Xiao Ling urgently warned Lin Tian in his mind.
"Raise it by half?!" Lin Tian was shocked, and now he's having a bit of trouble coping. Raising it by half would be unbearable. He quickly retreated from Qian Ye's knife attack. Lin Tian retreated, Qian Ye chased after him, the two of them rapidly moving in opposite directions. "Stop right there! I won't lose! I'm going to defeat you, defeat you!" Qian Ye angrily shouted.
"Only a fool would stop!" Lin Tian thought to himself as he ran even faster, and in front of him appeared a forest. Lin Tian's heart was overjoyed, and he quickly darted into the forest. The forest, this kind of environment, was the most suitable for Ling Bo Wei's footsteps to be displayed, while Qian Ye's speed was slowed down by Lin Tian's constant turns. Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and Qian Ye's speed gradually slowed down, his offensive also falling! Lin Tian's heart was greatly delighted, knowing that the timing for a counterattack had matured, and with a surge of excitement, his speed increased by another 30%!
One fell, one rose, the gap was suddenly pulled open. Seizing an opportunity, Lin Tian coldly smiled and his right hand flashed like lightning onto Qian Ye's Zhongzhuan acupoint, the North Ming Divine Technique instantly activated, and a torrent of internal energy surged into Lin Tian's body like a tidal wave!
His internal energy was sucked out, and Qianye's entire body went limp. The curved knife in his right hand fell straight to the ground! "Northern Profound Divine Technique, it's actually Northern Profound Divine Technique, I should have thought of it earlier, I should have thought of it earlier. You can use Lingbo Micro Steps, so naturally you might also know Northern Profound Divine Technique. So, your previous actions of specifically targeting and defeating the villains of the martial world also had a reason behind them, not just for justice, but to absorb their internal energy!" Qianye's body was drained of its internal energy, and he fell to the ground weakly, saying "You win, give me a knife. I know I'm evil in the Jianghu, but by the time I realized it, it was already too late. I've sunk deep into it, and I've grown fond of that feeling... watching those beautiful girls cry beneath me, that feeling is so cool, so cool, haha!"
"Your power, controls your heart!" Lin Tian sighed and picked up the curved knife that Qian Ye had left behind. The bright moonlight flashed across his neck! To use the Bright Moon to kill people, only to die under its light as well, what a cruel irony!
"Master, you have absorbed forty years of internal energy cultivation, adding to your previous amount, making it a total of ninety years of internal energy cultivation. However, since the Northern Ming Divine Technique absorbs impure internal energy, absorbing too much will cause conflicts. Therefore, thirty years of internal energy has been converted into 750 dimensions of boundary power by Xiao Ling for you. You now possess sixty years of internal energy and 755 dimensions of boundary power, with seven chances to revive. What I need to tell you, Master, is that the revival opportunities can only accumulate up to ten times. After ten times, it will only start accumulating again after you have consumed your revival opportunities." Xiao Ling said in Lin Tian's mind.
"Forty years of hard work, it's a great harvest indeed. Ten chances are enough for me, I won't be able to die ten times in ten different worlds!" Lin Tian said softly, "Little Spirit, this curved knife is excellent, extremely sharp and doesn't even get stained with blood, very rare indeed. Help me put it away, we can use it again in the post-apocalyptic world 2!"
"Alright, master, it will cost five dimensions of power!" Xiao Ling said, and had already stored the curved knife in Lin Tian's hand into the star ring. Looking at Qian Ye's corpse on the ground, Lin Tian furrowed his brow, "Forget it, since you provided me with 40 years' worth of inner power, I'll spare you from being devoured by wild beasts!" Lin Tian said, and suddenly struck out with his palm, unleashing a powerful surge of inner energy that blasted a nearly two-meter-deep pit into the ground. With a light kick, Qian Ye's corpse fell into the pit, and after a few more bursts of energy, the excavated earth and rocks quickly filled in the hole! Lin Tian sighed in admiration at the convenience of having inner power, and with a light tap of his toe, he sped off in the direction they had come from.
