807 Battle of the Top

Bang!

A hand reached out behind Lei Qian’s body and pressed down on his back,forcibly receiving every single bit of the incoming boundless power.

Turning his head around, Lei Qian looked at Yuan Cang who had appeared behindhim. He wiped off the blood at the corner of his mouth, his expression ugly ashe spoke, “This brat is much stronger than before.”

“Eight Yuan Nirvana stage.”

Yuan Cang replied in an indifferent tone, “He has learnt an extremelyoverbearing body strengthening martial art, hence his physical body isextremely strong. From the looks of it, it seems that he has also improved inthat aspect.”

“I was just careless previously.” Lei Qian said as he clenched his teeth.

“You are not his match.”Yuan Cang replied indifferently.

Upon hearing those words, Lei Qian’s complexion changed. Althoughunwillingness filled his eyes, he did not rebut in the end. He did not holdback at all during his previous attack, however, he was still injured by LinDong’s punch. From this, he could see that Lin Dong was not the slightest bitinferior to him.

“That bastard.” gloominess filled Lei Qian’s eyes as his heart pounded alittle faster. When he first met Lin Dong in Unique Devil Region, the latterhad relied on a cheap trick to pull a fast one on him. However, within a shortspan of two months, the latter’s strength has continuously increased, so muchso that it had reached a level that he could no longer deal with.

“What’s the plan?” currently, Ling Zhen had also descended from the air. Heshot a dark look at Lin Dong before he asked Yuan Cang.

“I’ll deal with him personally.”

Yuan Cang slowly walked forward. His gaze was focused on Lin Dong. Soon after,a smile brimming with murderous aura appeared on his face, “I’ll let him knowthat a price has to be paid if one wants to be a savior…”

“Oh? Finally deciding to take action?” Ling Zhen raised his eyebrows, beforelooking at Lin Dong in amusement. There was no need to question Yuan Cang’sstrength. Even a person as powerful as Chen Gui had lost. What more Lin Dong?

Although it was said that Lin Dong’s combat prowess was far superior to hissurface strength, could he be stronger than Chen Gui?

Rustle.

All eyes in the area instantly converged on Yuan Cang as he started to walkforward. Subsequently, the gazes of several people changed. From the looks ofit, Yuan Cang was finally about to make a move…

Upon seeing this, the morale of the Yuan Gate disciples were somewhatrestored. Ominous glints appeared within their gazes once again as they staredat Lin Dong. It seemed that they were similarly extremely confident in YuanCang.

Swish!

While Yuan Cang walked forward, a wind noise rang out from a distant sky.Everyone raised their heads, and saw an beautiful but indistinct figure dressedin white flying over while standing on a green lotus. It was Ling Qingzhu.

As someone whose reputation was not the slightest bit weaker than Yuan Cang inthe Eastern Xuan Region, Ling Qingzhu’s appearance immediately attraction quitea few gazes. Even Yuan Cang’s footsteps paused. This level of attention was notonly due to her gorgeous appearance. Her strength was also on a level that evenYuan Cang could not disregard. Both of them were at the initial Profound Lifestage, and this was sufficient for her to stand amongst the younger generationelite of the the Eastern Xuan Region.

Ling Qingzhu was already accustomed to being under the attentive gazes of thecrowd. Her clear eyes swept across the rocky terrain that reeked of blood,before resting on the body of the youth that was brimming with a brutal aura. Acomplication expression flashed past her eyes when she saw that the situationhad already degenerated into the worst case scenario.

As of now, it was obvious that there was not the slightest possibility formediation between the two. This fight was unavoidable.

“Haha, Qingzhu, I’ve heard from brother Wu Qun of the Precious Sect that youhad matters to attend to in Unique Devil Region. If it’s not resolved, I canaccompany you.” Yuan Cang said while looking at Ling Qingzhu, a smile appearingon his indifferent face.

“Many thanks to senior brother Yuan Cang for your concern. Qingzhu’s matterhas already been resolved.” Upon hearing his words, Ling Qingzhu replied with afaint smile.

“That’s good, please allow me to deal with the matter here first beforecontinuing our conversation.” Yuan Cang was able to discover the alienation andpoliteness from her words. Frowning slightly, he still smiled and reply her.

Ling Qingzhu did not reply again. She looked at Lin Dong, who had not cast hisgaze towards her. Hesitating a little, her lips moved slightly as a soft andfaint voice bundled by Yuan Power, rang in Lin Dong’s ear.

“You have to be careful. Yuan Cang is not easy to deal with.”

When he heard the voice ringing in his ear, some emotions finally surfaced onLin Dong’s emotionless face. He looked at Ling Qingzhu floating in midair, andfaintly nodded his head.

Seeing his response, Ling Qingzhu did not say anything else. The green lotustransformed into a green ray, carrying her to the mountain where the NineHeavens Supreme Purity Palace was before descending on it.

From the brutal aura that radiated from the entirety of Lin Dong’s body, shewas able to guess that the Dao Sect had suffered quite severe losses because ofthe Yuan Gate. Given Lin Dong’s character, it was obvious that he would nottake this lightly. Therefore, a great battle was unavoidable. 

However, she was not able to interfere in this fight. From a personalperspective, she was inclined towards Lin Dong. Although the complicatedrelationship between the two of them made her head hurt, it was still muchbetter than the relationship between her and Yuan Cang. However, in this world,it was obvious that one could not take the considerations of only one side. Shewas a disciple of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, and this matter wasnot a personal conflict between Lin Dong and Yuan Cang, it also concerned therelationship between two powerful super sects.

If she was to interfere, it would implicate the Nine Heavens Supreme PurityPalace, and would only make the matter much more complicated. Therefore, shewas obivously unable to interfere… 

Yuan Cang looked at Ling Qingzhu, who had descended on the mountain peak,before a gloomy look flashed past his eyes. Although the words that LingQingzhu said to Lin Dong were protected by Yuan Power, Yuan Cang was able tofeel the fluctuation created. Although he did not know what Ling Qingzhu hadsaid to Lin Dong, it was clear from this communication that there seemed to besomething going on between the two of them. In addition, this relationshipmight not be simple, as Yuan Cang had never seen Ling Qingzhu like this with aman before…

“Huff.”

Yuan Cang took a deep breath and suppressed the turmoil and brutal murderousintent in his heart that had risen from jealousy. Turning his head, his eyesturned incomparably sinister as he stared at Lin Dong.

“You keep giving me new reasons to kill you…”  

Lin Dong seemed to smile as he replied, “Luckily for me, I’ve had suchintentions since the beginning.”

A mocking smile appeared on the corners of Yuan Cang’s mouth, before his gazeabruptly turned frosty. Yuan Power that blotted the skies suddenly welled anderupted from his body. The Yuan Power whizzed in the sky like a raging tide asit surged and churned.

Yuan Cang’s Yuan Power was obviously overbearingly strong and vigorous. Sincehe was at the initial Profound Life stage, his body had already startedproducing life Qi. When life Qi was assimilated into Yuan Power, it grewwithout end, and the amount that resulted was simply something that no onebelow the Profound Life stage could compare with.

Yuan Cang slowly float up in the air as boundless Yuan Power gathered behindhim like an ocean. Looking down at Lin Dong from above, his appearance was akinto a god looking down on mortals. With a sinister laugh, he said, “ What willyou fight me with?”

As his laugh rang out, Yuan Cang’s eyes instantly darkened. With sudden clenchof his fist, a palm furiously swatted down at Lin Dong.

Bang!

As the palm descended, the Yuan Power that blotted the skies instantaneouslyhowled and screamed, directly transforming into a gigantic glowing palm thatfuriously descended on Lin Dong in an earthshaking manner,

Raising his head, Lin Dong gazed at the gigantic glowing palm that wasscreaming towards him. With a clench of his fist, a crimson cauldron appearedin a flash. It rapidly increased in size, carrying a crimson glow that blottedthe skies with it as it directly clashed against the glowing palm.

Bang!

Violent and wild fluctuations unfurled in the sky as the glowing palm crackedand exploded. The crimson cauldron flew backwards and floated above Lin Dong’shead. Yuan Cang’s gaze was ice-cold as he stared at it. Waves of strong andblazingly hot fluctuations continuously radiated out of the Burning SkyCauldron.

“The cauldron had actually landed in your hands!”

Yuan Cang gazed at the crimson cauldron floating above Lin Dong, and his gazeinstantly turned gloomy and sinister. As for Lei Qian and Ling Zhen, theirexpressions changed as well. Never did they expect that the object they hadspent so much effort to look for, had unexpectedly ended up in Lin Dong’s“However, do you think that you can contend against me by relying on a PureYuan treasure?! My Profound Life stage Yuan Power alone can exhaust you todeath!”

A cold light flashed within Yuan Cang’s eyes. The strength of the initialProfound Life stage bestowed him with Yuan Power that far exceeded thevigourous Yuan Power that Lin Dong was emitting. Even though he had a Pure Yuantreasure, Lin Dong was still not his match.

“Your Yuan Power is more abundant than mine? That may not be the case…”

However, in response to Yuan Cang’s icy smile, Lin Dong raised his head as anice-cold look flashed past his face. His hands suddenly formed a set ofmysterious hand seals, before pressing his palms on the ground.

Bang Bang!

As Lin Dong pressed his palms against the ground, an exceptionally strangefluctuation started to spread on the ground. In the next instant, peoplenoticed that the earth was starting to turn desolate and barren in a speed thatwas visible to the naked eye. Under this desolation, waves of terrifying energystarted to converge from all directions, before completely pouring into LinDong’s body.

“This is…”

Yuan Cang watched the scene before him as his pupils suddenly contracted.

“Great Desolation Scripture?!”
