The elders of the Black Sword Sect suddenly felt a chill in their hearts. Just as they were about to speak angrily, their words stopped abruptly in their throats.

Feeling the source of the voice, the people of the Black Sword Sect then turned their attention to the pale-faced old man beside Li Lin. At this moment, the old man was emanating a murderous aura, his cold gaze spreading out. Just being stared at by those eyes made people break into a cold sweat.

Li Lin smiled faintly. HuiHun Poison Commander Dong WuMing was always aloof from the world and undoubtedly bloodthirsty and ruthless. Li Lin had some connection with him, established when he was seriously injured. Otherwise, how could Li Lin have persuaded this old poisoner to join the small Flying Spirit Gate?

Feeling this cold aura, Qian BaTian of the Black Sword Sect suddenly changed his expression, never expecting that the Flying Spirit Gate would suddenly have an unknown master. The murderous look in the eyes of this black-robed elder was glaringly obvious, filling him with fear. Judging from the aura, this person was extremely powerful.

Staring at HuiHun Poison Commander Dong WuMing, Qian BaTian suddenly said, "May I know the name of this esteemed person? The Black Sword Sect's visit to the Flying Spirit Gate was not intended to disturb you. If so, I will immediately withdraw!"

In Qian BaTian's heart, he was now extremely cautious of this black-robed elder. If this person interfered in the Flying Spirit Gate's affairs, he feared he wouldn't gain any advantage.

Hearing Qian BaTian's words, everyone from the Flying Spirit Gate and the Black Sword Sect was surprised. Qian BaTian, always arrogant and domineering, was now speaking so respectfully to this black-robed elder, even to the point of backing down.

Of course, the elders of the Black Sword Sect also felt the aura from this black-robed elder, realizing that he was extremely difficult to deal with.

"Hmph," HuiHun Poison Commander Dong WuMing sneered, then said, "I joined the Flying Spirit Gate today, and you come to cause trouble, deliberately opposing me. In that case, I will also oppose you."

As he spoke, HuiHun Poison Commander Dong WuMing slowly advanced towards Qian BaTian.

Seeing HuiHun Poison Commander approaching him, Qian BaTian's face changed drastically, and he said hastily, "You misunderstand, Elder. First, I did not know you joined the Flying Spirit Gate today. Second, the Flying Spirit Gate captured one of my disciples, so I came to demand an explanation. It was absolutely not to oppose you."

"Is that so? Capturing one of your disciples is a big deal? Since the Flying Spirit Gate likes capturing disciples of the Black Sword Sect, I, having joined the Flying Spirit Gate today, will present a gift and capture you as well," HuiHun Poison Commander said coldly.

This statement immediately changed the expressions of everyone from the Black Sword Sect, and even those from the Flying Spirit Gate were surprised at the audacity of the person the Sect Leader had invited.

"What do you want to do? My Black Sword Sect is not to be trifled with. If it comes to it, we will both suffer," Qian BaTian involuntarily retreated slightly and angrily said to HuiHun Poison Commander.

"Both suffer? You are not worthy," HuiHun Poison Commander laughed grimly, releasing his suppressed aura. An overwhelming coldness instantly spread.

Feeling HuiHun Poison Commander Dong WuMing's fully unleashed aura, the elders and Qian BaTian from the Black Sword Sect became even more terrified, realizing that the opponent was a Spirit Master.

"Don't push people too hard," Qian BaTian shouted loudly.

"Hmph, so what if I do," HuiHun Poison Commander snorted coldly, raising a hand seal, and instantly the space in front of him fluctuated. A wave of black energy mist appeared beside him, rapidly transforming into six black streaks of light in the air.

These black lights moved silently yet fiercely, slicing through the air at a speed too fast for the eye to follow. The six streaks of black mist swiftly shot towards Qian BaTian and the five elders of the Black Sword Sect.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

The six men were shocked and their Qi burst forth from under their feet as they dodged.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…"

The six dodged, but behind them, six disciples who hadn't reacted in time were pierced by the black lights. Their bodies turned black, and they spat out black blood before collapsing to the ground.

These six disciples from the Black Sword Sect were all direct disciples with notable strength within the sect, yet they were instantly killed, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

"Haha, what a Black Sword Sect, using disciples as human shields." HuiHun Poison Commander laughed coldly. His robust aura suddenly soared to the sky, and his figure burst out instantly. His cold eyes, filled with an undisguisable chilling menace, directed a black palm imprint straight at Qian BaTian.

"Everyone, fight with the people of the Flying Spirit Gate, attack together!" Seeing the mysterious strong figure attacking him, Qian BaTian immediately shouted, his hand seals forming, and a surge of true Qi violently emanating from his body, as he struck out with a roaring fist imprint.

The people from the Black Sword Sect hesitated for a moment and then drew their swords, rushing towards the members of the Flying Spirit Gate. The five Elders divided their attacks, with two helping to strike at HuiHun Poison Commander, while the remaining three attacked Huang HaiBo, Zhou YuHou, and Zheng Ying separately. "Everyone, prepare for battle," Li Lin shouted, his expression darkening. He formed a mountain-opening palm in his hand and swept it towards a Black Sword Sect disciple who was an eighth-level Martial Fighter.

"Bang…"

The palm strike swiftly sent the Black Sword Sect disciple flying. Li Lin seized the opportunity to survey the battlefield. The disciples and three Elders of the Flying Spirit Gate also began to fight, but in terms of momentum, the disciples of the Flying Spirit Gate were significantly inferior to those of the Black Sword Sect.

"Little dragon, protect XinTong," Li Lin quickly carried Li XinTong to the back, instructing Little dragon to protect her. His face darkened slightly, seemingly pondering something. Then, gritting his teeth, he summoned the TianChi Snow Lion in his mind.

"Roar…"

From the back mountain, a tremendous roar resounded, and a massive beast appeared from the sky above – the formidable TianChi Snow Lion.

The appearance of the TianChi Snow Lion startled everyone present except for HuiHun Poison Commander.

The TianChi Snow Lion flapped its wings, generating a gust of wind that materialized in the sky. The wind howled, expanding rapidly, forming a massive twister about two hundred meters high, sweeping towards the people of the Black Sword Sect like a tornado.

The TianChi Snow Lion, following Li Lin's instructions, directly attacked all members of the Black Sword Sect. As the twister raged, it picked up vegetation and rocks from the ground, creating a mini-tornado with dust and debris filling the air.

"Thud, thud, thud…"

Several shocked disciples from the Black Sword Sect were swept into the air, then violently slammed to the ground, becoming lifeless corpses.

The TianChi Snow Lion landed, flapping its wings. Its white front paws suddenly lashed out with wind-blade-like claws, tearing through the air with a sharp sound. The claw marks twisted the space around them, striking two Black Sword Sect disciples and instantly shredding them into pieces.

"It's a flying beast, the one from our sect's back mountain the other day," several Elders from the Black Sword Sect realized in horror that the TianChi Snow Lion was the same beast they had chased days before.

"Bang…"

In that instant, Qian BaTian was sent flying by HuiHun Poison Commander, clearly outmatched.

"Huff, huff…" At this time, two Elders from the Black Sword Sect, one on each side, launched powerful energy attacks towards HuiHun Poison Commander.

"Even with injuries, it's enough to kill a few of you," HuiHun Poison Commander scoffed, forming hand seals. Dark energy surged from his hands, streaking through the air towards the two Elders of the Black Sword Sect. The dark energy tore through space like serpents.

A massive energy collision ensued, creating ripples like waves, exploding outwards.

"Boom! Boom!…"

Sounds like thunderclaps echoed in the air, and under the explosion of immense energy, the entire area was shrouded in thick, foul-smelling black mist. The two Elders were overwhelmed by the energy, along with a soul attack – a specialty of spiritualists – and coughed up black blood, their bodies rapidly decaying and dying.

HuiHun Poison Commander, his body full of poison, infused his attack with deadly soul-snatching toxins and the powerful soul attacks of a spiritualist. The two Elders were no match for him and were killed in one round.

Without even a glance at the two Elders of the Black Sword Sect, HuiHun Poison Commander charged towards Qian BaTian, forming a hand seal that generated a dense black mist claw imprint.

The claw imprint sliced through the air with a hissing sound, its murderous intent flashing in HuiHun Poison Commander's eyes as it rapidly streaked out, causing the air to violently ripple.

This claw imprint carried a chilling, overwhelming force, bursting out from HuiHun Poison Commander's hand, tearing through space with a series of sonic booms.

Feeling the terrifying power of HuiHun Poison Commander, Qian BaTian's face showed absolute fear and dread. He regretted provoking the Flying Spirit Gate, as they indeed had a formidable figure within. Regretting his actions too late, he faced the incoming attack, pulling out a black broadsword.

His hand seal struck out, sending sword lights tearing through the air and enveloping the sky towards HuiHun Poison Commander.
