Chapter 140 - Extortion

Dust and rocks flew out along with violent gale roaring. The Fifth Orifice cultivators from the two sects had fear in their eyes, looking at Lin Yun approaching them with his punch. But in the end, they suppressed their feelings and faced Lin Yun.

Boom!

When the ground exploded, the commotion was like a thunderous roar that sent the eight of them flying out. After they fell onto the ground, they took many steps back, but they still couldn’t stabilize themselves. As those from the Blood Cloud Sect had a weaker defense, they spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Yun had only used one punch to defeat eight Fifth Orifice cultivators, and his cultivation was only in the Fourth Orifice of the Xiantian Realm. When the spectators saw this scene, they were left deeply shocked.

“You’re pretty strong…but it’s nothing compared to my Breaking Arms Fist!” Mei Zihua coldly snorted and charged out, before the Blood Cloud Sect would respond.

Boom!

He took to the sky and threw a punch out at Lin Yun. His punch produced a powerful influence and swept the surroundings. It was as if he could contend against an entire army by himself.

From his aura alone, it was stronger than Lin Yun’s punch.

“Terrific!” Lin Yun raised his brow. He wanted to face Mei Zihua head-on and get back whatever he’d suffered in the past. Without any hesitation, he threw a punch back at Mei Zihua.

Boom!

When the two punches clashed, cracks began to spread out on the ground from the shockwave, causing fragments of rocks to blast out.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The two of them did not have any changes in their expression and exchanged blows. Every single punch would cause a shockwave to reverberate out in the surrounding, turning the fragments of stone around them into ashes.

In the blink of an eye, the two had already exchanged over ten blows. Mei Zihua felt a turmoil in his internals. He exclaimed out when he felt the numbness in his arm, “How is that possible?!”

Throughout the entire fight, Lin Yun’s had utterly suppressed him. No matter how he tried to circulate his Golden Flame Art, he couldn’t turn the tables around. After ten punches, the surging spiritual energy within his body had shown signs of collapsing.

“Hey, is that all you got? I’m barely warming up!” Lin Yun grinned. The Iris Flower exploded with radiance and poured into his fist. This time, the power contained in his fist was one-fold stronger than before.

Boom!

Without a hint of hesitation, Mei Zihua retrieved the Demonic Flame Halberd from his interspatial pouch.

Rustle! Rustle! Rustle!

Mei Zihua panicked and was blocked with the Demonic Flame Halberd. His face was pale, and took a few steps back.

Whoosh!

But when Lin Yun wanted to pursue Mei Zihua, he was suddenly assaulted by a crimson radiance from his back. The radiance was like a venomous snake that bit at his neck.

Lin Yun immediately turned around and grabbed onto that crimson radiance. Looking down at his hand, it was Xue Tu’s Crimson Blood Whip.

“It looks like you’ve gotten many things in the Azure Sun Realm, but you’re still tender to fight me.” Xue Tu smiled eerily. When Lin Yun grabbed onto the Crimson Bone Whip, it spiraled up his arm.

He started injecting his crimson spiritual energy into the whip. The next second, the Crimson Bone Whip spiraled around Lin Yun’s arm and tightened up.

Lin Yun tried to break free, but only to have the whip tightening upon his arm.

“Little bastard, you’ve never seen a High-Grade Profound Artifact in your life, right? You want to try and break free from the Crimson Bone Whip? How unknowledgeable.” Xue Tu snickered.

“Take one from me!” A cold light flickered through Mei Zihua’s eyes when he recovered from Lin Yun’s attack. He slammed his halberd down. The tip of the halberd was like a demonic flame. Under that strike, the air around it solidified.

Looking at two elites attacking Lin Yun with their High-Grade Profound Artifacts, the surrounding cultivators knew that Lin Yun was in danger.

“High-Grade Profound Artifacts, how envious…” Lin Yun looked at the Demonic Flame Halberd with strong emotions fluctuating in his eyes. “But it’s not easy to kill me with this!”

Lin Yun pulled with all his strength, and Xue Tu was sent into the air, colliding against Mei Zihua.

“My heavens!”

“How did he accomplish that…? Just how much strength does he need to do that? It must be nearly a hundred thousand catty of strength, right?”

“Perfect Thunderblitz Battle Physique! He must’ve reached the Perfect Thunderblitz Battle Physique!”

Just how much strength was needed to send a Fifth Orifice cultivator that wields a High-Grade Profound Artifact into the air? Everyone was shocked by this scene.

Boom!

Mei Zihua and Xue Tu clashed together, and the two of them spatted out a mouthful of blood. Simultaneously, the Crimson Bone Whip that spiraled around Lin Yun’s hand slipped down. His arm was fine when he tried moving it around.

After going into the Thunderblitz Battle Physique, some superficial injuries couldn’t affect him. But he still had to be careful with the High-Grade Profound Artifacts. If someone with higher cultivation had used them, he wouldn’t be able to break free so easily.

“Damn it!” Mei Zihua and Xue Tu were both furious, pouncing forth at Lin Yun. They both wielded a High-Grade Profound Artifact. The aura permeated from them was terrifying, coupled with their cultivation.

Lin Yun gently raised his hand and retrieved the Flower Burial Sword from the sword box.

Clang!

Swinging the sword, Lin Yun pounced forth without any hesitation.

Thunderclap Sword Art—Violent Gale!

As Lin Yun’s wrist moved, he created 81 afterimages before they overlapped together. He had also circulated the Iris Sword Sutra simultaneously. Accompanied by a thundering roar, Lin Yun’s sword fell onto the two.

Crack! Crack!

His sword had crushed the Mei Zihua and Xue Tu’s attacks at the same time. Mei Zihua and Xue Tu wanted to fight back, but they immediately took a defensive position with their faces changed.

Clang!

When Mei Zihua and Xue Tu took Lin Yun’s attacks, they could feel their arms going numb, mixed with pain. They nearly lost grip of their weapons. However, Lin Yun did not allow them to catch their breath and followed up with his attacks.

With a sword in his hand, Lin Yun’s temperament had undergone a dramatic change. His long hair fluttered in the wind, brimming with confidence.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Mei Zihua and Xue Tu couldn’t unleash their weapons’ full might under Lin Yun’s attacks. They felt oppressed, like a sailboat amidst the storm. It didn’t take long for the two of them to be covered in injuries, drenched in their own blood.

One with the sword, Incomplete Sword Intent!

Lin Yun’s aura suddenly changed, transforming into a more refined aura. His sword seems to have fused with heaven and earth. Under his sword, Mei Zihua kneeled on the ground with the Demonic Flame Halberd.

Whoosh!

Lin Yun spun and swung his sword down. When his sword flashed, the Crimson Bone Whip in Xue Tu’s hand flew out. Fresh blood sprayed out from Xue Tu’s sword, with a horrifying wound on his chest.

“Fuck off!” Lin Yun threw out a forward kick, sending Mei Zihua, who wanted to get up on his feet.

Plop!

Mei Zihua was sent out flying like a rag. Lin Yun defeated Xue Tu with his sword and kicked Mei Zihua. They were two elites in the Azure Sun County, but they actually lost with the advantage in numbers. This scene left the surrounding spectators shocked; they never imagined that the fight would develop in this manner.

Clang!

Lin Yun stabbed the Flower Burial Sword into the ground. The sword trembled, and the remaining sword intent was etched into everyone’s heart.

“So, how long are you guys planning to watch?” Lin Yun crossed his arms and looked at the two sects’ Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators with a smile.

The Blood Cloud Sect and Golden Flame Sect had sent out two Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators each. But one of them was injured in the black hole and still hadn’t recovered.

That means that the two sects combined only had a Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivator left.

“Holy shit...has he gone insane?”

“He’s actually challenging Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators? Is he not afraid of dying?”

“I think the two Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators have already intended on making a move, but they must be afraid of hurting Mei Zihua and Xue Tu!”

No one had expected that even after defeating Mei Zihua and Xue Tu, Lin Yun still wasn’t stopping and placed his intention on the two elders.

The Blood Cloud Sect and Golden Flame Sect’s elders exchanged a look. The two of them could see a smear of shock in each other’s eyes.

“The Cosmic Treasure belongs to you, and my Blood Cloud Sect will not make a move at you in the Azure Sun Realm.” The Blood Cloud Sect’s elder spoke out.

“My Golden Flame Sect also guarantees that we will not make a move at you in the Azure Sun Realm.”

Surprisingly, the two elders actually took a step back. But they didn’t have a choice. The two did not think much about it when Lin Yun defeated the eight Fifth Orifice cultivators. But when they saw how Mei Zihua and Xue Tu couldn’t defeat Lin Yun even with High-Grade Profound Artifacts, their faces turned grave.

With Mei Zihua and Xue Tu’s talents, no ordinary Seventh Orifice cultivator could be confident about defeating them while they wielded High-Grade Profound Artifacts.

However, Lin Yun had utterly crushed them, especially after he brought his sword out.

So the two elders immediately knew that Lin Yun’s strength was unfathomable. Even if he couldn’t fight Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators with his current strength, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to escape.

So if the two sects knew that they wouldn’t benefit from making things difficult for Lin Yun in the Azure Sun Realm. As for the Cosmic Treasure...it naturally belonged to Lin Yun in the Azure Sun Realm.

But once they’re out, the two sects had tons of ways to get it from him. It was already a question if Lin Yun could keep his life, not to mention the Cosmic Treasure!

The two elders looked confident when they gave out their promise. They were confident that Lin Yun wouldn’t refuse it. However, Lin Yun kept quiet and looked at the two with a smile, which sent chills down their spine.

“You guys might intend to let me off, but I don’t intend to let you guys off!” Lin Yun squinted his eyes, showing a smile. His words were like a toxic needle, stabbing into the hearts of the two sects.

“Brat, don’t take it too far!” A Blood Cloud Sect’s disciple roared upon hearing Lin Yun’s arrogant speech.

Lin Yun’s smile immediately retracted and flicked his fingers.

First Stage of the Divine Flicking Sword—Flashing Aura, Flicking Fingers!

A sword flash pierced through the air, buzzing while it stabbed into the head of that disciple who spoke, claiming his life instantly.

Lin Yun had killed someone instantly by flicking his fingers, before two Quasi-Profound Martial Realm cultivators. His action had left everyone dumbfounded.
