"Come on, I'm waiting." Li Lin spoke lightly, his true qi already circulating within his body. Aware of the strength of a Blue Spirit Triple Warrior, Li Lin dared not underestimate his opponent. Although he was not afraid of Triple Warriors, Blue Spirit was a direct disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect, and it was uncertain how powerful her natal demon beast had become.

"Giggle, little brother Lin, sister knows you're strong, so I won't hold back, okay?" Blue Spirit laughed, her laughter causing her slender waist to twist and her bosom to quiver, presenting a temptation to anyone who saw her.

As her laughter ceased, Blue Spirit's demeanor became serious, and her true qi surged around her. Suddenly, she grasped a blue longsword in her hand, enveloped by a scorching red aura. In an instant, a sword shadow flashed by, her figure swift as lightning, rushing towards Li Lin.

With a flicker of his true qi, Li Lin's figure vanished from where he stood.

"Whoosh!" A blade of sword qi slashed down, landing heavily on the ground where Li Lin had just been, instantly cracking the hard rock surface.

Seeing Li Lin's figure disappear, Blue Spirit was momentarily startled but without hesitation, her body was engulfed in a crimson glow, and the fire attribute aura spread out. With the blue longsword in her hand, she quickly launched several sword beams towards her rear.

When Li Lin reappeared, he was already behind Blue Spirit, his palm strikes dispersing in the air, twisting the space around them, and then landing on the sword qi Blue Spirit had released.

The sword qi Blue Spirit had launched was quickly dissolving into red smoke that scattered into the air, while a powerful energy filled the surrounding space.

"Thousand Hands Rift Seal."

Suddenly, a palm seal trailed a series of afterimages, fiercely piercing through the air currents and shooting towards Blue Spirit with a wild surge of energy, creating a powerful wave of force.

From the first exchange, Blue Spirit's expression had turned solemn, and now it changed drastically. The speed and strength of her opponent exceeded her expectations.

"Fire Shadow Sword Technique." As she swiftly retreated, Blue Spirit let out a delicate shout. Her graceful figure drew an even more enticing line of fire, her longsword emitting a scorching sword light that rushed to meet Li Lin's palm strike.

"Ssssh!"

Contrary to expectations, there was no massive sound of impact. The two forces collided, carrying a fierce energy that quickly met.

The collision of the two attacks immediately spread a wave of energy in the air, distorting the space. At that moment, Blue Spirit's figure, like a leaf in the autumn wind, was forced to retreat in embarrassment. She felt a powerful energy hidden within Li Lin's palm strike, which passed through her sword shadow to hit her hand, then directly penetrated her palm and struck her internal organs with a thunderous impact.

"Little brother Lin, I didn't expect you to be so strong, and I didn't expect you to be a disciple of the Yunyang Sect. It looks like sister will have to use all her strength today." Stabilizing her stance, Blue Spirit's expression turned utterly solemn as she focused on Li Lin in front of her.

"I didn't expect that in just over two years, you've reached the Triple Warrior level," Li Lin said lightly, observing Blue Spirit. Despite being at a slight disadvantage just now, her allure seemed natural, her breath fluctuating, and her chest heaving more provocatively.

"That's nothing compared to you, little brother Lin. Sister is going to summon her natal demon beast now. If you find yourself unable to match up, you'd better speak up early. I don't want to hurt you." Blue Spirit revealed a smile again, her eyes tenderly looking at Li Lin, her lips pouting in an undisguised flirtation.

"Hmph, that damn enchantress." Yun Hongling was already furiously upset in the stands, but there was nothing she could do, puffing up her cheeks in frustration.

Stolen novel; please report.

"Summon your Blazing Fire Eagle then, I'm waiting." Li Lin spoke lightly, his gaze noting Blue Spirit's proud chest heaving slightly. She sheathed her blue longsword and formed a strange hand seal, then tapped a bag at her waist, similar to a space bag, from which a streak of light shot out instantly.

"Gah."

The streak of light soared into the sky and transformed into a hundred-meter-sized crimson flying eagle, its presence spreading a formidable aura. The eagle's talons were sharp as hooks, and its beak was as deadly as the barbs on a sharp knife.

"A Mid-Stage Fifth Order Blazing Fire Eagle." At that moment, Yun Xiaotian on the stands was surprised, his expression turning utterly solemn.

"Yun Sect Master, I forgot to tell you, my sect's disciple's natal demon beast has already broken through to the mid-stage of the fifth order. Among the younger generation, she is the only one who has managed to break through to this level," Myriad Beasts Sect's Sect Master Yin E smiled slightly, his gaze on Yun Xiaotian carrying a hint of mockery.

"This Blazing Fire Eagle must have broken through to the mid-stage of the fifth order some time ago. Although it hasn't reached the peak of the mid-stage, I estimate that even a Fifth Order Warrior would have difficulty dealing with it now," Gu Jianfeng commented, raising an eyebrow.

"Hehe, now I wonder if Li Lin can hold his own. I didn't expect Sect Master Yin's disciple to have pushed her natal demon beast to this level," a group of sect leaders said, seemingly waiting to see if Yun Xiaotian could win back the high-level Xuan-tier martial technique he had just lost.

"Mid-stage of the fifth order, huh." Li Lin was also surprised at this point. The Blazing Fire Eagle, which was at the third order level back then, had now reached the mid-stage of the fifth order. From its aura, although it had not reached the peak of the mid-stage, he estimated that an ordinary Fifth Order Warrior would indeed have a hard time dealing with it.

"Another demon beast." Li Lin lightly raised an eyebrow. If he were to face a Fifth Order Warrior, he might be forced to reveal his trump card again, but now, facing a demon beast, especially a flying one of the fifth order mid-stage, was extremely difficult for others. Compared to facing a Fifth Order Warrior, dealing with a demon beast seemed somewhat easier.

However, Li Lin knew he was different. Having gone through numerous hardships and near-death experiences to master the Blood Soul Mark, it was the bane of all demon beasts. While he couldn't directly control a Mid-Stage Fifth Order demon beast yet, dealing with one shouldn't be a problem. The Blood Soul Mark had a restraining effect on all demon beasts; otherwise, a king-level beast like the Heavenly Winged Snow Lion wouldn't have been marked by his Blood Soul Mark.

A barely perceptible sly smile appeared on Li Lin's lips. The Blood Soul Mark left by his master, the Saint Hand Ling Zun, was the nemesis of the Myriad Beasts Sect. Li Lin even wondered if his master had a grudge against the Myriad Beasts Sect, as the Blood Soul Mark was specifically designed to torment them, whether in controlling or attacking demon beasts.

During this delay, Blue Spirit formed strange hand seals and spat out a mouthful of blood essence, her face turning pale instantly. She took out a pill, mixed it with her blood essence, and with changing hand seals, threw it towards the Blazing Fire Eagle.

"Gah..."

The Blazing Fire Eagle roared, its voice piercing through the void. It opened its sharp beak and swallowed the pill. In that instant, its body size explosively increased, with its wings spreading over four hundred meters, covering the space like a blazing red cloud, drastically raising the temperature of the entire area. The aura of the Blazing Fire Eagle also approached a frenzied state.

"It's a Mid-Stage Fifth Order demon beast, the natal demon beast of a direct disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect."

"Li Lin is in trouble now."

"Kou Zihao seems to be at a disadvantage too. Jin Xin'er's soul attack appears to be much stronger."

Among the onlookers, the battle among the four was being closely watched, and at that moment, Yuan Ruolan in a purple dress was also intently observing the four.

"Blazing Fire Eagle, go." With a light command from Blue Spirit, the Blazing Fire Eagle circling in the sky immediately flapped its wings and rushed towards Li Lin with a burst of violent flames.

"Gah gah!"

As the Blazing Fire Eagle's massive body flapped its wings, a fierce energy pierced through the void. Its body, charging forward, created a howling wind, as if breaking through space itself, demonstrating its formidable might. This display of power instilled fear in many of the onlookers around the plaza, given the terrifying nature of this huge Mid-Stage Fifth Order demon beast.

Just with a flap of its wings, already close by, the Blazing Fire Eagle's fiery aura quivered, bringing with it turbulent flames and a fierce aura sweeping out.

"Gah gah..."

With this immense display of power, the temperature in the surrounding space suddenly became unbearably hot. Then, from the Blazing Fire Eagle's mouth, a fireball several tens of meters in size was expelled, thunderously tearing through the void, dragging along crimson spatial ripples, and ferociously pressing towards Li Lin.

The fireball grew as it caught the wind, continuing to expand, its momentum crushing the air, its ferocious aura growing stronger and stronger.

"Fire Flame Burst."

At that moment, Li Lin moved, his expression instantly becoming solemn. With a low shout, a whirlwind appeared under his feet, and as he rapidly retreated, a hand seal changed, and a palm-sized fireball burst forth from his right hand, drastically increasing the scorching aura in the space, with a powerful aura pressing down, directly enveloping the surrounding space.
