In a moment of astonishment, the Quadruple Martial Master instantly regained his senses, and his body suddenly burst forth with water-attributed Qi, his hand seals changing incessantly. A massive water mist of over a hundred meters instantly enveloped him, and the violent water mist quickly converged into a huge vortex, which then swept towards Li Lin with a thunderous momentum.
The force of the vortex spread, twisting the surrounding air currents together, with a roaring sound of sonic boom sweeping past. At this moment, the Quadruple Martial Master had struck with all his might.
"Jiuhua Sect disciples, your strength is just so-so." Li Lin snorted coldly. Facing a Quadruple Martial Master of the same level, Li Lin did not consider him a threat. Since he had already decided to eliminate the people from Jiuhua Sect, he intended to eliminate them all to prevent future troubles.
As his words fell, surging Qi burst forth from Li Lin's body, instantly overpowering the Quadruple Martial Master. Even with normal strength, Li Lin's dantian Qi sea's breadth and the toughness of his meridians were much stronger than those of his peers.
Li Lin's Qi surged in an instant, his green robe fluttering without wind, and his Qi continuously spreading out at an extremely fast pace. Suddenly, a scorching aura spread out from his body, and a punch filled with flames struck out.
"Fury Fist."
With a shout from Li Lin, his Qi vibrated, and a huge fist imprint struck out, its violent force destroying the spatial air currents, colliding with the huge vortex that had rapidly approached him.
"Bang bang..."
A huge sound of an explosion spread out from the clash of the two violent forces. The vortex suddenly spun at high speed and then exploded, with the sound echoing throughout the square. Even the people engaged in fierce battles around couldn't help but turn their heads to look.
Qi spread out, violently disturbing the surrounding space, causing cracks to form on the ground of the square.
The young Quadruple Martial Master staggered back, his internal energy and blood churning, a formidable force he hadn't anticipated pouring down on him. He forcibly swallowed a mouthful of fresh blood, only to find that his opponent had already disappeared from sight.
"Where did he go?"
The Quadruple Martial Master felt something was wrong and retreated rapidly, only to see a blue afterimage rushing towards him.
"Die!"
Li Lin appeared in front of the Quadruple Martial Master like lightning, causing his face to drastically change. Not just him, but many strong figures were extremely shocked by Li Lin's appearance.
As Li Lin appeared, a sharp glove appeared in his hand. With a twist of his hand, five scorching finger marks burst forth, instantly destroying the Quadruple Martial Master's protective aura and piercing through his chest.
"Crack..."
The sound of bones breaking was heard, and Li Lin, with a cold intent, pulled a shattered organ from the chest of the Quadruple Martial Master, bringing with it a mix of bloody and white substances, as the air was filled with an endless scent of blood.
"Ah..."
The young man screamed, then fell to the ground, blood everywhere.
Li Lin's Qi was extraordinary, with fire-attributed Qi swirling around his hands, turning into strands of flames that cleanly burned away the blood on the white jade silk gloves.
This scene made everyone present gasp in shock. Such cruel methods moved even those accustomed to the ancient domain.
"How ruthless." At this moment, the eyebrows of thousands of Ghost Martial Sect disciples were furrowed, their hearts filled with absolute shock. The people engaged in fierce battles on the square, some of whom had thought to take advantage of the chaos to attack Li Lin, retreated rapidly after witnessing this scene, daring not to provoke Li Lin lightly.
Among the leaders, Dai Daozi, Elder Wang, Elder Liu, and others had varied expressions, but without exception, they were all shaken by Li Lin. They naturally did not regard Li Lin's strength highly, but his aura of slaughter and the murderous aura on his body also moved them.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
"Good strength, a dual-system martial artist, plus this aura of slaughter," Dai Daozi's expression slightly darkened, "If this child has the opportunity, his future achievements are unimaginable."
"Idiots." In the Jiuhua Sect, Mo Tianwen's face drastically changed. The five strongest disciples of the younger generation within the sect had all been killed by Li Lin. How could he not be furious, wishing he could immediately step forward and kill Li Lin himself.
Elder Wang and Elder Liu also exchanged glances, then once again set their sights on Li Lin, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
"Boom boom boom..."
On the square, the sound of explosions continued, and there were still many corpses on the ground. Li Lin, wearing white jade silk gloves and exuding a murderous aura, stood in the center of the square. At this moment, no one dared to provoke him, having witnessed him killing five people in the blink of an eye.
Li Lin raised an eyebrow. Looking over the square, out of the original thirty-one people, now only fourteen remained. This included eight from the Ghost Martial Sect, two from Qianshan Gate, two from Tianyi Gate, one from Yunshan Gate, and all five from Jiuhua Gate had been killed.
Among the ten of the Ghost Martial Sect, only two had been killed. The ten almost cooperated with each other, slaughtering the disciples of the other three sects. Overall, the disciples of the Ghost Martial Sect were stronger, even their martial skills were of a higher level, making it impossible for the disciples of the other three sects to compete.
"Bang bang..."
The sound of explosions was endless, with violent power filling the air. Li Lin saw that a Quadruple Martial Master from Tianyi Gate had killed a disciple of the Ghost Martial Sect but was then killed from behind by Dai Chang'an with a palm strike.
"Die." Dai Changyun, not wanting to be outdone, released his violent Qi, instantly killing a Triple Martial Master from Qianshan Gate.
"Kid, the cousin is mine." At this moment, a figure appeared beside Li Lin, it was Dai Chang'an.
"Is that so? Then it has nothing to do with me." Li Lin said lightly, not paying him much attention.
"I will kill you." Dai Chang'an said coldly, his eyes coldly staring at Li Lin, his Qi beginning to shake.
"Bang bang...!"
Ahead, another deafening explosion sounded as a Sextuple Martial Master from the Ghost Martial Sect killed a Quadruple Martial Master from Qianshan Gate with a sword strike.
"The first round is over." A shout fell, and Du Yunshan appeared on the square. Now, only ten people remained on the square: six from the Ghost Martial Sect, one from Qianshan Gate, one from Tianyi Gate, and one from Yunshan Gate.
"Hmph!" Hearing this shout, Dai Chang'an couldn't help but snort coldly and reluctantly retreated.
Li Lin glanced coldly at Dai Chang'an, then turned his attention back to the center. Now, out of the thirty-one people, only ten remained, with fourteen corpses on the ground, and seven seemed to have fled the square with serious injuries, effectively surrendering.
In the Ghost Martial Sect, dozens of disciples were already on the square cleaning up the corpses, with no one lamenting the dead, only excitement for the ten who remained.
"You ten will participate in the second round, which will be decided by drawing lots. There will be five pairs, and my hand holds bamboo sticks of five different colors: black, red, white, blue, green. Drawing the corresponding stick, you will compete in the order of black, red, white, blue, green. The rules remain the same, disregard for life and death, until the opponent steps down from the square or is killed to win. The five winners will enter the third round," said Du Yunshan, his gaze particularly noting Li Lin.
Then, Du Yunshan took out a sealed tube, half a meter in size, and everyone lined up to draw a bamboo stick from it.
"White, the third to compete." Li Lin looked at the bamboo stick in his hand, which was white, meaning he would be the third to compete. He then observed the others around him, who had also opened their bamboo sticks.
"It's him." Li Lin's gaze settled on another Sextuple Martial Master from the Ghost Martial Sect besides Dai Changyun, who also held a white bamboo stick.
At that moment, the Sextuple Martial Master's gaze also fell on Li Lin, a trace of coldness passing through his eyes.
"Have everyone chosen? According to the order, those who drew black sticks, start competing," said Du Yunshan. At this point, the square had already been cleaned by the disciples of the Ghost Martial Sect.
"Elder Wang, do you think Li Lin can make it into the top five?" At the top, Lv Xiaoling looked at Li Lin and said to Elder Wang beside her.
"Miss, it's hard to say. Just keep watching, and you'll know," replied Elder Wang.
Dai Daozi and others were also whispering something to the elders beside them, then their gazes returned to the square.
"Swish swish..."
On the square, two figures leaped to the center: one in a white long shirt, a Triple Martial Master from Qianshan Gate, and one in black attire, tall, a Quadruple Martial Master from the Ghost Martial Sect.
As the two of them entered the arena, discussions arose among the sect leaders and many elders at the top, with only the people from Jiuhua Gate looking sullen, as all five disciples were killed by one person, making this sect conference a huge loss of face for Jiuhua Gate.
As soon as the two young men took the stage, they exchanged brief courtesies and immediately launched into attack. The disciple from the Ghost Martial Sect was a fire attribute martial artist, while the disciple from Qianshan Gate was a water attribute martial artist. As soon as they engaged, the sound of explosions rose, and the air currents around them surged violently.
Li Lin carefully observed the competition between the two. The disciple from the Ghost Martial Sect clearly had the upper hand. In terms of inherent strength, the young man in black from the Ghost Martial Sect was a level stronger, even his martial skills were better, immediately putting the disciple from Qianshan Gate under pressure.
