Chapter 160: Below the Great Emperor, All Are Ants!
"Destroy Eternal Lotus!"
Lin Potian gave a low shout, a lotus flower condensing in his hand, about to be released.
"Young Master, don't use that move, are you trying to destroy me?" The Saint Emperor's terrified voice rang out in the void.
He felt horrified in his heart; this was the space inside the tower, and the Saint Emperor had not yet recovered to his previous peak state. However, this divine ability, Destroy Eternal Lotus, was already equivalent to a blow from a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. If unleashed, the space within the tower would likely collapse!
As the voice fell, Lin Potian instantly dissipated the lotus in his hand and frowned, saying, "I originally wanted to instantly kill these puppets, but it seems it will take a bit more effort now."
Having said that, Lin Potian took a step forward, and the next instant he appeared beside a puppet. Before the spatial fluctuations had even fully dissipated, his fist wind, like a dragon and carrying a booming roar, slammed violently into that puppet!
Bang!
The puppet was instantly sent flying. Although it should have exploded directly, a dim blue luster flickered on its surface, and it actually managed to resist. However, under this incomparably tyrannical blow, its surface was covered in dense cracks, emitting a "crack" sound, as if it were fragile porcelain about to shatter!
"You can still take it? Then take another punch from me!"
Lin Potian pressed his advantage, his eyes sharp. He urged his fist momentum again, the fist wind violent and emitting a piercing whistle—another punch!
Boom...!
Under this destructive power, the puppet finally could not endure it. The dim blue luster instantly dimmed, and cracks on its surface spread rapidly like a spiderweb. With a loud "bang," it completely exploded, fragments scattering and turning into specks of light that dissipated in the air!
The speed was so fast that the remaining seventeen puppets didn't react at all, standing in place without moving!
But immediately, the shattered puppet condensed back into shape!
Seeing this, Lin Potian's pupils shrank, "What, can't they be killed?"
"You bunch of idiots, what are you still waiting for? Kill him for me!"
At the same time, the voice of Tianjiao Yu drifted out, carrying obvious anger!
As the words fell, all the puppets received the order. Their pupils instantly converged, no longer sluggish. In a flash, they swarmed toward Lin Potian from all directions!
"Supreme Fist!"
Lin Potian gave a loud shout, his fists swinging out violently like falling stars. Each punch carried the power of a mountain-toppling sea, the space torn by his fist wind, emitting bursts of tearing roars!
The fist shadows were heavy and impenetrable, turning into an ocean of fist wind that instantly submerged all eighteen charging puppets!
Under this monstrous fist momentum, the puppets were sent flying backward one after another. Some tumbled in the air, others crashed into the tower walls, emitting "bang, bang, bang" loud noises!
But they immediately regrouped and continued to charge at Lin Potian, as if they felt no pain at all!
"Supreme Sword!"
Lin Potian gave a loud shout, condensing a gold and silver dual-colored light sword. He swung it out like a gale and rainstorm, the sword light whistling like a dragon soaring through the four seas, erupting with deafening sword cries!
The sword shadows intertwined, turning into an ocean of brilliant sword light. The seventeen puppets that approached again were swept away like autumn leaves in the wind. Some stumbled and fell, others tumbled and collided; the scene was extremely chaotic, and a heart-palpitating aesthetic of violence permeated the air!
Yet even so, these puppets showed no signs of shattering at all!
"I want to see just how hard you really are!"
Lin Potian gave a loud shout, his figure erupting like an arrow released from a bow, instantly charging into the group of puppets!
One hand held the sword, the sword light filling the sky; the other hand threw punches, carrying the power of a mountain-toppling sea!
Although the puppets were fearless and felt no pain, under Lin Potian's storm-like offensive, they exploded one after another, turning into specks of light, only to immediately condense again!
"A bit... hard to deal with!" Lin Potian wiped the sweat from his forehead, standing in place without attacking immediately, trying to find the weakness of these puppets.
Just then, all the puppets took a step forward in unison. Their figures swelled dozens of times over, and together they smashed down toward Lin Potian like a giant mountain!
"Small tricks!"
Lin Potian snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved. The space around him instantly twisted to dodge the blow, and he countered with a punch. The fist wind was like a sharp blade, immediately slicing a puppet from top to bottom, but a dim light flashed on the puppet's surface, and the wound healed rapidly!
Lin Potian's eyes were slightly solemn, "The recovery ability is actually this fast too?!"
These puppets not only had endless methods, but they also felt no pain and had extremely strong recovery abilities. And since he couldn't use a major killing move like Destroy Eternal Lotus, they were truly a bit difficult to deal with!
Lin Potian hooked the corner of his mouth, saying faintly, "But I also... lack nothing!"
Since fusing the Immortal and Divine powers, the power within Lin Potian's body was as if inexhaustible, with a storage capacity dozens of times greater than when he had only Immortal Power or Divine Power alone!
If it was a river before, now it was a vast ocean!
"I'm done playing around with you toys!"
Lin Potian's eyes suddenly turned fierce. Suddenly, the space around him fluctuated violently, and his figure disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already behind a puppet!
The fist wind was like a dragon, slamming out with the force to destroy the heavens and the earth!
A dim light flickered on the puppet's surface, and it once again took the blow head-on, merely trembling slightly. It then countered with a backhand strike; a beam of dim blue light cut through the space like lightning, aiming straight for Lin Potian's vitals!
Lin Potian dodged to the side, the beam grazing him and slicing a long, thin crack in the space. He then hooked his mouth into a cold sneer, "You've fallen for it, I left that opening on purpose!"
Immediately, Lin Potian shifted his body to the side. Utilizing the momentum of the puppet's attack, he was as swift as a leopard. He closed in on the puppet's side, his hands forming seals, and he whispered, "Space Cage!"
In an instant, the space around this puppet twisted and folded, forming a dim light cage that trapped it firmly!
"Roar, roar, roar!"
The puppet struggled in the cage, emitting bursts of angry roars. The dim blue light flickered, but it was difficult to break free from the shackles of space!
Lin Potian's eyes were cold and stern. His hands slammed together, and the light cage suddenly contracted, emitting a sharp "squeaking" sound. The dim light on the puppet's surface began to dissipate under the extreme pressure!
"Does space technique actually have a restraining effect on these puppets?"
Seeing this, Lin Potian guessed to himself. He then continued to apply pressure with both hands. The puppet inside the dim light cage finally could not endure it; the dim blue luster on its surface was like a candle in the wind, flickering on and off, until finally, with a "crack," it was completely annihilated!
What Lin Potian didn't expect was that this puppet shattered just like that and never condensed again!
"So that's it, you aren't indestructible after all!"
Seeing this, Lin Potian hooked his mouth into a cold sneer of realization. His figure then shuttled between the puppets like a teleportation, his hands quickly forming seals. Spatial fluctuations occurred one after another, and every "Space Cage" accurately and firmly bound a puppet!
"Roar, roar, roar!"
The puppets struggled frantically inside, emitting wild cries, dim blue light splashing everywhere, but it was all in vain; they simply could not escape!
"Contract!"
Lin Potian's eyes grew sharper, and as he continuously contracted the light cages, the dim light on all the puppets' surfaces immediately dimmed!
"Shatter!"
Following a cold shout from Lin Potian, the gloomy cage of light suddenly tightened, and those puppets tightly bound by the "Space Cage" were ruthlessly squeezed, emitting heart-palpitating creaking sounds; cracks rapidly spread across their bodies, and the dim blue light on their surfaces extinguished completely in this instant, like candle flames deprived of life, as shattering sounds exploded in the air, crisp and dense, like ten thousand glass beads hitting the ground at once!
Bang, bang, bang!
All of them shattered!
Clap, clap, clap...
"Not bad, truly not bad; it seems you already have the qualifications to cross hands and clash with me."
Accompanied by the sound of applause, a woman of peerless grace walked out, dressed in a tight-fitting Immortal dress, her bosom heaving, the hem of her skirt fluttering lightly, her face exquisitely beautiful, like an Immortal who had stepped out of a painting, her skin whiter than snow, her brows and eyes like a painting, a faint yet profound smile hanging at the corners of her mouth!
And she was none other than the female Immortal Emperor—Tianjiao Yu!
Nicknamed the God of Slaughter!
Having said that, Tian Jiaoyu's fingers flicked lightly, and the surrounding air solidified for it, a powerful pressure quietly permeating the area!
"So strong!" Lin Potian's eyes sharpened, and he whispered to himself.
"Hehe, little fellow, I will use one-tenth of my strength to spar with you; I hope you can please me well and let me see if Xiao Buwen's disciple can truly surpass his master!"
Tian Jiaoyu looked straight at Lin Potian, her eyes flashing with anticipation and fighting spirit.
Lin Potian's eyes also flashed with fighting spirit; he bowed and cupped his hands, but said eagerly: "Senior, please go easy on me!"
"Easily done, easily done!"
Tian Jiaoyu finished speaking impatiently, her jade hand raised lightly, instantly transforming into a sky full of light and shadow, every wisp of light containing the power of destruction, pressing straight toward Lin Potian!
Lin Potian only felt a blur before his eyes, the surrounding air was instantly sucked away, an indescribable sense of oppression enveloped his entire body, and his heartbeat could not help but accelerate!
"Shield!"
He inhaled sharply, the light around his body surging violently, gathering between his palms to form a brilliant protective shield, the light colliding with Tian Jiaoyu's jade hand, emitting a deafening roar!
Bang!
Lin Potian was instantly sent flying, dust rising all around!
"Cough, cough, is this... an Immortal Emperor? Truly terrifying!"
Lin Potian's figure staggered, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his face turned slightly pale, but the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even more intense!
Tian Jiaoyu paused, suddenly thinking of something, and lifting her chin, she said: "By the way, I am very interested in that lotus flower you used at the beginning; feel free to display it, I have already set up a defensive barrier!"
After finishing, she added: "You had better use it for me immediately, otherwise I will make you die, little fellow."
Lin Potian's eyelids twitched wildly, thinking to himself that she was worthy of being called the God of Slaughter, indeed acting with no taboos, simple and direct, her words filled with hidden barbs!
Then he had no choice but to satisfy her!
After all, women just need to be satisfied.
"Alright, Senior, but you had better... defend against this move."
"Hehe, defend? Do you take me, this Great Emperor, for a fake?"
Tian Jiaoyu was incomparably disdainful, only feeling that Lin Potian was somewhat too arrogant!
A mere little Venerable-rank, actually telling an Immortal Emperor to be careful?
It was simply overestimating his own capabilities!
The reason was none other than this: one Great Emperor-rank powerhouse could block one hundred thousand Venerables!
Below the Immortal Emperor, all are ants!
And today, she was actually told to defend by a little Venerable-rank cultivator; it was simply the most ridiculous joke in the world!
