Chapter 690: Chapter 468: The Might of the Divine Flame Realm, Utter Annihilation
They thought they were in the same realm as Lin Chang’sheng, that they could put up a fight.
But now, with Lin Chang’sheng unleashing such a terrifying blow, they felt certain that if they faced him head-on, they’d have zero chance of surviving.
The two could retreat, but Nanshan Daoist would never back down.
As a proud Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivator, if he ran from the attack of a Mahayana cultivator, he’d be mocked endlessly by others.
"Die for me!"
Nanshan Daoist roared, swinging his Fiery Flame Long Saber, cleaving out with a mighty slash.
The blade aura ripped through the sky, clashing directly with Lin Chang’sheng’s Celestial Thunder Blade Aura.
Rumble—
In almost an instant, the two blade auras collided in midair above.
Nanshan Daoist thought his casual strike would shake Lin Chang’sheng back, but to his shock, after the explosion, Lin Chang’sheng didn’t take a single step back.
On the contrary, Nanshan Daoist’s own hand tingled painfully from the impact of the Celestial Thunder Blade Aura.
"How can this kid be so powerful?"
Nanshan Daoist was startled, realizing he couldn’t afford to underestimate his opponent.
From their first clash, neither gained the upper hand, leaving Gu Shan, not far away, dumbstruck.
To face a Tribulation Crossing expert with only Late Stage Mahayana cultivation—Lin Chang’sheng might just be number one in the Immortal Realm.
There had been plenty of prodigies in history, but none were ever rumored to challenge a Tribulation Crossing cultivator with just Late Stage Mahayana cultivation.
The only reason Lin Chang’sheng could match Nanshan Daoist’s strike—
was because he wielded a Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure, while his opponent did not.
On top of that, Lin Chang’sheng’s Celestial Thunder Godslaying Slash was leagues above the other’s Immortal Techniques.
And, Nanshan Daoist had just fought the Cold Ice Jade Toad, burning through much of his Primordial Power; right now, he only had about sixty to seventy percent of his strength left.
Otherwise, the gap between great realms couldn’t be bridged so easily.
"Impressive, I underestimated you! Now let’s see what you’ve really got!"
As soon as Nanshan Daoist spoke, he unleashed the overwhelming aura of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, trying to bind Lin Chang’sheng in place.
That way, Lin Chang’sheng would be forced to take the brunt of his blade aura head-on, with no chance to dodge.
"Li Fire Thousand Blades Slash!"
With a shout, fiery flames swirled around Nanshan Daoist, twisting the entire space.
As he swung his blade, waves of powerful Fiery Flame Blade Aura howled toward Lin Chang’sheng.
Of course, Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t about to keep taking Nanshan Daoist’s attacks head-on; he instantly pulled out the Ancient Bronze Mirror.
Pumping Primordial Power into it, the Ancient Bronze Mirror burst into brilliant light, forming a mirrored space before him; every blade aura landing inside vanished instantly.
Bam bam bam—
The remaining blade auras struck around Lin Chang’sheng, tearing the earth and slashing deep cracks through the land.
"Another Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure?"
Nanshan Daoist was beyond shocked at this point.
Just how many Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasures did this brat have?
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
But before he could even react, stronger waves of Fiery Flame Blade Aura bounced out of the mirrored space, slashing straight toward Nanshan Daoist.
Nanshan Daoist panicked, dodging as quickly as he could.
But there were too many blade auras; some he couldn’t avoid and had to take head-on.
Bang—
The powerful Fiery Flame Blade Aura slammed into Nanshan Daoist, shaking the air with a deafening explosion.
Nanshan Daoist was hurled through the sky, looking utterly beaten.
The rebounding blade aura was even fiercer than what he’d sent out, flames wrapping all around him; his hair was singed and tattered.
"This... how is this possible?"
Nanshan Daoist was struck with terror. He’d thought, with sixty or seventy percent of his power back, killing Lin Chang’sheng would be a cinch.
But Lin Chang’sheng had so many Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasures at his disposal.
And here he was, suffering repeated losses at Lin Chang’sheng’s hands.
"Now it’s my turn!"
Lin Chang’sheng stomped the ground, instantly unleashing the Divine Flame Realm.
The earth, once covered in yellow dust, cracked with countless fire-red fissures, like a volcano about to erupt.
The fire-red fissures spread out for a hundred yards, completely trapping Nanshan Daoist inside.
Nanshan Daoist tried to soar upward to escape the flames.
But the moment he moved, he was enveloped by a crushing aura, his speed dropping tenfold. Even just leaping up a dozen feet, massive pressure slammed him back down to earth.
Bang—
In the next moment, a torrent of flame erupted from the ground, swallowing Nanshan Daoist whole.
This Domain Power wasn’t yet at Perfection, but it fused Divine Phoenix Roasting Fire with the Force Field Realm, making gravity in this space even heavier and layering Divine Flame Power throughout.
"You think these flames can hurt me?"
Nanshan Daoist channeled his Primordial Power, forming an Elemental Shield around himself to ward off the raging inferno.
Without the Elemental Shield, he’d be dead to the Divine Flame in no time.
But even so, this was no long-term solution; his Primordial Power was draining fast and would run dry soon enough.
"How about this, then?"
Lin Chang’sheng put away the Ancient Bronze Mirror and Godslaying Blade, calling forth the Divine Thunder Bow.
Now, inside the Divine Flame Realm, Nanshan Daoist was a sitting duck; under the Domain’s suppression, he could barely move and stood no chance of dodging the Divine Thunder Bow’s attacks.
"You—"
Nanshan Daoist saw Lin Chang’sheng summon the Divine Thunder Bow and his face fell; this brat was really treating him like target practice.
Even if he could fend it off at first, he couldn’t hold out for long.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
In the next instant, Lin Chang’sheng loosed the bowstring; thunderbolt arrows soared out, streaking toward Nanshan Daoist.
These thunderbolt arrows carried Cyan Lotus True Flame; once it touched you, it clung to your bones and wouldn’t burn out for ages.
The Cyan Lotus True Flame had an incredibly devastating power.
Nanshan Daoist tried his best to dodge, but the Thunder Flame Arrows seemed to have minds of their own, attacking from every direction.
"Break!"
Nanshan Daoist had no choice but to slash out, aiming to shatter the incoming arrows.
But the arrows dodged each blade aura.
Bam bam bam—
The arrows landed one after another on Nanshan Daoist’s Elemental Shield, each hit sounding with a thunderous crash.
If it were just Celestial Thunder Arrows, maybe Nanshan Daoist could hold them off.
But these arrows carried Cyan Lotus True Flame, so vicious that when they hit his Elemental Shield, the fire refused to die.
The arrows pierced right through his Elemental Shield.
"Ahhh—"
As the shield shattered, Nanshan Daoist instantly felt the terror of the Fiery Flame Power, howling in pain as he burned.
He tried to escape, but the Domain Power pinned him down, making it impossible to flee.
It must be said: the physical body of a Tribulation Crossing expert was formidable. If it had been a Mahayana cultivator, even a little Cyan Lotus True Flame would have invaded to the bone; within three breaths, they’d be a heap of white bones.
But Nanshan Daoist gritted his teeth, lasting half an incense stick before finally falling silent.
"Elder Nanshan—is he dead? Did he just die?"
Zhang Wenliang saw this scene and was so shocked his jaw dropped.
A Tribulation Crossing expert, so easily slain by Lin Chang’sheng?
What kind of monster was this?
Wouldn’t that mean they were doomed to suffer the same fate as Elder Nanshan?
Buzz—
In the next instant, Nanshan Daoist’s Divine Soul fled his body, darting away.
But Lin Chang’sheng swept out the Holy Soul Banner and trapped him inside.
"You still want to run?"
Lin Chang’sheng sneered.
After dealing with Nanshan Daoist, Lin Chang’sheng turned his gaze to Zhang Wenliang and Huang Yuesheng.
"Spare—spare me! We didn’t recognize your greatness. I deserve death, I deserve death—"
At the instant Lin Chang’sheng looked his way, Zhang Wenliang dropped to his knees on the spot, smacking himself over and over.
Trying to move Lin Chang’sheng with his desperate display.
"Just—just don’t kill me! I’ll do anything! I’ll be your servant, if that’s what you want!"
Huang Yuesheng begged for mercy as well, looking pitiable as could be.
But Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t swayed in the least.
Whoosh whoosh—
Two arrows shot straight for Zhang Wenliang and Huang Yuesheng.
Their eyes went wide in terror; their first instinct wasn’t to fight back, but to run.
But how could their escape be faster than the Thunder Flame Arrows?
Bang—
The Thunder Flame Arrows caught up in an instant, blasting out two explosive bursts.
When the two hit the ground, both were gravely wounded, a head-sized bloody pit in their backs, Cyan Lotus True Flame still burning. Clearly, neither had any hope of survival.
