371. Martial King’s True Form, Battle Against Nascent Soul’s Magic Avatar

Martial King! This was a title that was on the same level as the Nascent Soul. They were both termed as "great beings." Every great being possessed unimaginable strength, allowing them to communicate with the heavens and the earth. For example, the Nascent Soul cultivator's ability to manifest power with just their words. And the Martial King? Every gesture of theirs is infused with a Great Divine Ability. They could cause the sky to crumble with just one blow and the earth to split.

But how could Lin Fei be a Martial King? This scene left everyone from the Taiyi Dao Palace dumbfounded. The leader of Taiyi Dao Palace was even trembling.

"Martial... Martial King! How did Lin Fei become a Martial King? Without being a Martial King, there's no way he could so easily block the attack from the Daoist Lord Qianhe. It's only been a few months..."

The leader of Taiyi Dao Palace felt he had already placed enough importance on Lin Fei. This time, he even used Taiyi Dao Palace's precious treasure, the Grand Yin Moonlight Divine Water, to get a single opportunity for the Daoist Lord Qianhe to make a move. But who would've thought that Lin Fei had become a Martial King?

At this moment, in the void, Lin Fei and Qianhe were in a standoff.

"Manifesting power with your words, so you are a Nascent Soul cultivator?" Lin Fei's eyes slightly narrowed. He had recognized the strength of the Daoist Qianhe in front of him. Indeed, he was a Nascent Soul cultivator! Lin Fei had encountered king-level exotic beasts before, but this was his first time seeing a Nascent Soul of such caliber.

Daoist Lord Qianhe felt a sinking feeling in his heart, and his expression was grim. Wasn't he supposed to deal with a mere Martial Sovereign? How did it turn into facing a Martial King? He had also previously investigated Lin Fei and had been under the impression that Lin Fei was just a Martial Sovereign.

Furthermore, the Ancient Origin Sect had never birthed a Martial King before. Hence, he had agreed to this so readily. But now, Lin Fei had turned into a Martial King? This left Daoist Lord Qianhe in a tough spot. After all, he had his reputation to uphold. If he left shamefully just because Lin Fei turned out to be a Martial King, he would probably become a laughingstock among the Nascent Soul cultivators. However, risking his life to fight against a Martial King just for the Grand Yin Moonlight Divine Water seemed unreasonable.

Then, a thought flashed through the mind of Daoist Lord Qianhe, and he quickly devised a plan. "I've accepted the items from Taiyi Dao Palace, so I must act. Since you're a Martial King, your Divine Abilities must be exceptional. I have also cultivated a Magic Avatar. I shall use my Magic Avatar to test your Divine Abilities!"

A terrifying aura erupted from Daoist Lord Qianhe.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a colossal Magic Avatar, tens of thousands of meters tall, emerged in the void. Countless Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth frantically converged into the Magic Avatar. The void trembled and a fierce wind blew. An oppressive pressure descended upon Lin Fei.

This was the Nascent Soul cultivator's Magic Avatar! Cultivators of the Immortal Dao have always been inferior in close combat compared to martial artists. However, once reaching the Nascent Soul stage, it's different.

Nascent Soul cultivators can use specific spiritual materials, combined with spells, refining techniques, etc., to cultivate a Magic Avatar. Also known as External Incarnation. In essence, they all mean the same thing. A Magic Avatar has the power to shake the heavens and the earth and can face off against Martial Kings. Some powerful Magic Avatars are even more terrifying than the real bodies of Martial Kings.

"Magic Avatar!" The voice of Daoist Lord Qianhe emanated from the Magic Avatar. The Magic Avatar was the Daoist Lord Qianhe, and the Daoist Lord Qianhe was the Magic Avatar. They were one and the same. In front of such a terrifying Magic Avatar, all protective formations, all Nascent Soul magic treasures, were useless. One blow could destroy the entire Taiyi Dao Palace. Only then could one be called a Nascent Soul Great Being!

However, the confrontation was brief.

One swing, two, three...

With just three strikes, the Magic Avatar of Daoist Lord Qianhe could no longer withstand. His avatar showed a gash from Lin Fei's blade.

The complexion of Daoist Lord Qianhe shifted drastically. His avatar, which he had crafted over vast stretches of time using countless precious resources, could only barely last against three of Lin Fei's strikes.

"Retract."

Without hesitation, Daoist Lord Qianhe withdrew his avatar and loudly proclaimed.

"Your Divine Abilities are boundless, dear friend. In this battle, I admit defeat. I've given Taiyi Dao Palace its due. Farewell, until we meet again!"

To everyone's surprise, Daoist Qianhe began to execute his escape technique. His intention was clear: not to engage in a life-and-death struggle with Lin Fei. After a few exchanges with Lin Fei, his honor would be intact. Thus, Daoist Qianhe began his departure.

Taiyi Dao Palace dared not voice any objections. Considering the present circumstances, it seemed that the days of Taiyi Dao Palace were numbered.

"Daoist Lord Qianhe!"

The Master of Taiyi Dao Palace paled. With the departure of Daoist Qianhe, the end of Taiyi Dao Palace was certain. But who could stop the Daoist Lord's escape? Even a Martial King would struggle against a Nascent Soul cultivator. However, Lin Fei was no ordinary Martial King.

"Thinking of leaving? Qianhe, you think you can come and go as you please, attack or retreat on a whim? Saber World, arise!"

With a deep roar from Lin Fei, the very skies seemed to morph. It wasn't just the sky but the entire world transformed.

Saber World! A realm of its own!

Now, as the Saber World descended, it instantly ensnared the fleeing Daoist Qianhe.
