Seeking the Immortal Way

Even though there weren't many people eating in the tavern, they were all moved by Lin Yan's words, and felt deeply regretful at the same time.

"Ai, what a good person, it's a pity that he got into trouble here, why are good people so short-lived? The heavens are truly unfair! "

It just had to be Ning Bo who provoked Scarlet Moon Sect, and that was a person who did not achieve his goal and will never rest. There is a saying, you would rather offend a gentleman than provoke a villain, if not, it would be truly troublesome. "

"But coming back to it, this guy can be considered to have some ability. He is clearly just a late period of Foundation Stage Cultivation Level, yet in front of an expert from the Ethereal Opening Realm, he still does not show any signs of submission. This can only be done with a very firm will."

"That's right. Mental attack isn't something any magic treasure can defend against. If he didn't have a firm will, he would have been crushed by such a powerful pressure. I hope he can keep his life."

Lin Yan held onto his Symbol Sword and walked toward the east side of the city. Ning Bo's group of six followed behind, not saying a word, they stared deadly at Lin Yan, who was in front of them.

Walking out of the city gate, he arrived at an empty space. Lin Yan silently operated the Purple Void Pupil Skill, causing everything around him to become as bright as day.

On the ground, there was a person wearing black clothes, holding a long knife in his hands, with his back facing, releasing the aura of an expert in the early stages of Ethereal Opening Realm, it was Du Mingcheng.

Ning Bo and the rest were hiding in the distance, observing the situation. They had evil smiles on their faces as they folded their shoulders, as though they were ready to watch a good show.

Du Mingcheng sensed Lin Yan's arrival and slightly turned around. He took off the black hood on his head, his white hair was in a mess, his eyes seemed to be shining brightly in the night, looking at Lin Yan, he secretly nodded his head, this brat truly had guts, he actually kept his word and did not have any intention of retreating.

Lin Yan walked to the center of the stage, and cupped his hands to Du Mingcheng who was in front of him: "Senior, let's do it."

Du Mingcheng slightly nodded his head, looked at Lin Yan in front of him, and faintly spoke: "Not bad, kid, your courage is admirable, you actually dare to come, don't tell me you're not afraid of death?"

Lin Yan's mouth had a smile on it, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face as he said to him: "It's easy to stand out and be beaten to death, but it's difficult to live with a sense of guilt. I hope that senior will keep your promise and let my fellow sect members go."

Du Mingcheng said in a serious tone: "Alright, I agree, your realm is only late period of Foundation Stage, how about this, if you can withstand three of my moves and don't die, I'll let you go, what about it?"

Lin Yan laughed, cupped his hands and said: "It's a deal."

After Lu An heard these words, he could not help but frown. If Lin Yan really did not die after taking three moves, would Du Mingcheng really let him go?

Pondering for a moment, Lu An spoke out the question in his heart to Ning Bo who was beside him.

Ning Bo laughed and shook his head: "Don't worry, although Lin Yan is powerful, even I, who is at the peak of the late period of Foundation Stage, am not his match, but Du Mingcheng is an expert of the Ethereal Opening Realm, and is one whole realm higher than him. Let alone three moves, I'm afraid that after one move, Lin Yan would be instantly killed."

Lu An thought for a while, still feeling a bit worried, he frowned and asked Ning Bo: "If this guy really uses the various treasures in his hands to withstand Du Mingcheng's three moves and doesn't die, what should we do?"

Ning Bo's face revealed a cold smile, and said to him: This is simple, I believe, even if Lin Yan does not die, I am afraid he will only have half a life left. At that time, we can send him off, and with that, Senior Du will keep his promise, and we can also use force to behead enemies and kill Lin Yan, why not?

Lu An thought for a moment, then said with a slight nod of his head: "I hope so."

The night was as cold as water, and a crescent moon hung in the sky. At some point, a black cloud had appeared to block the crescent moon. A cold wind blew, causing everyone present to unconsciously shiver.

Du Mingcheng slowly pulled out his long knife. In the dark night, the shiny blade edge was exceptionally dazzling. At the same time, it caused the surrounding temperature to plummet, forming a special ice-cold aura around his body.

Lin Yan frowned, a cold feeling rose in his heart. Although he was able to defeat mid stage Foundation Establishment experts at the early stage, he had never faced an expert from the Ethereal Opening Realm before. He could not help but feel nervous, and activated his Purple Void Pupil Skill to its limit, looking at Du Mingcheng with extreme vigilance.

Suddenly, the long knife in Du Mingcheng's hands flashed, the blade qi immediately formed a crescent moon-like cold light, its speed was extremely fast, even leaving a deep mark on the ground. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of Lin Yan.

Lin Yan's pupils immediately contracted. This was the first time Lin Yan had seen such a powerful blade energy, and this powerful blade energy carried a kind of extremely huge pressure, to the point where Lin Yan felt like he couldn't even breathe.

But it was already too late to think about it further. Lin Yan hurriedly forced the genuine essence s out of his body to protect himself, and at the same time, activated the golden soft armour on his body, causing the barrier s around him to become thicker. The Symbol Sword s laid horizontally across his chest, adopting a posture of full defense.

At this time, Du Mingcheng's blade energy had already neared. The blade energy was incomparably domineering and it released an ice-cold aura, an unstoppable force that tore apart Lin Yan's defensive barrier as if it was made of rotten wood, and heavily slashed at the Symbol Sword.

With the ear-piercing sound of metal clashing, Lin Yan's body was immediately sent flying, the blood in his body was in a mess, although the Symbol Sword in his hand and the surrounding barrier had already reduced the power of the blade by half, but the might of the sword Qi with half was still able to cause Lin Yan to receive slight internal injuries.

He landed heavily on the ground, creating a wave of pain. After a long while, Lin Yan's body finally stopped.

When Ning Bo and the other three saw this, their eyes revealed a look of surprise, and all of them applauded and cheered.

"So powerful!" Even if Lin Yan was able to withstand such a powerful strike and survive, he would probably be severely injured! "

"More or less, however, this Lin Yan is indeed strong, if it were me, I would have been chopped to death by this blade Qi. Furthermore, he was only severely injured, with such a strong defensive power, no wonder our Senior Brother Ning was not his opponent."

"So what? Even if he dodged this blade, in the next attack, he would undoubtedly die. If I were him, I might as well not resist and let my opponent have a clean death. Even if he dies, it would be too painful."
