Chapter 687

Kang Qizu looked down at Ye Lin from a high position.

There was not a trace of emotion in those eyes, which were like deep pools; there was only endless coldness.

As a member of the Joyous Union Sect's Punishment Hall, his duty was to deal with disciples like Ye Lin who did not follow the rules.

He had seen plenty of people who didn't follow the rules, but this was the first time Kang Qizu had seen someone dare to go on a killing spree in the Hall of No-Thought so blatantly.

"Are you going to come with me voluntarily to the Punishment Hall for interrogation to suffer less torture, or do you want me to do it myself?"

Kang Qizu looked down on Ye Lin; the aura emanating from his body had vaguely reached the fourth tribulation of the Dao's Four Tribulations: the Yin-Yang Realm!

The realm after the Heaven-Stiff Realm is the Five Elements Realm. The Five Elements Realm requires cultivating five dharma bodies—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—and then merging the five dharma bodies with the original body to step into the Yin-Yang Realm.

Once one steps into the Yin-Yang Realm, the dantian within the body will open into a Taiji Qi Sea, capable of containing both Yin and Yang energies within the body, resulting in a terrifying improvement in both combat power and endurance.

"Don't worry about those trivial things for now; I'll ask you one thing: what is Elder Nu to you?" Ye Lin asked with a smile.

"Elder Nu is my great-grandfather, so what?" Kang Qizu said coldly.

"Nothing, nothing, I was just asking. I don't want to be captured without a fight; come on, hurry up and attack!" Ye Lin rubbed his hands in anticipation.

Kang Qizu was stunned for a moment, and then a cold, chilling glint flashed in his eyes.

"It seems you really won't shed tears until you see the Yellow Springs."

The moment Kang Qizu decided to attack, his Yin-Yang Realm aura was revealed without reservation.

He pointed a finger at Ye Lin from a distance, and a violent power fluctuation swept over instantly.

Ye Lin set up the Bronze Dragon Pulse Cauldron to block in front of him, but he was instantly blasted away. The Bronze Dragon Pulse Cauldron slammed directly into his chest, breaking several of his ribs.

Seeing this, the other disciples erupted into cheers, shouting Kang Qizu's name.

A sweet, fishy taste surged up in Ye Lin's throat.

Sure enough, trying to deal with the Yin-Yang Realm with just his physical body was still too much of a stretch.

Ye Lin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised his hand to summon lightning.

"Forbidden Spell: World-Extinguishing Wild Lightning!"

The terrifying lightning swept over, and the power of that lightning made Kang Qizu's expression change slightly.

"Since you've even used a forbidden spell, don't blame me for being ruthless and killing you on the spot!"

Kang Qizu began to get serious; his fingers turned into an extremely strange color, as if they were forged from metal.

"Eight Desolations Wither-and-Flourish Finger!"

Kang Qizu pointed a finger, and this finger hit Ye Lin's glabella from a distance.

Before Ye Lin could react, a bloody hole appeared right in the center of his glabella, piercing through from front to back.

At the same time, his body began to wither rapidly, and his flesh and essence were slipping away bit by bit.

It was only then that the heavenly lightning struck down, forcing Kang Qizu to retreat repeatedly.

Although he handled it a bit awkwardly, fortunately, the matter was resolved; Ye Lin had been killed by him!

Just when Kang Qizu thought the matter was resolved, he suddenly heard an exclamation from a female disciple nearby.

"Senior Brother Kang Qizu, watch out!"

When Kang Qizu looked up, he saw Ye Lin, who should have been killed by his finger, appearing in front of him alive and kicking, swinging a giant cauldron toward him.

Kang Qizu raised his hand to block, but the moment his palm touched the Bronze Dragon Pulse Cauldron, he regretted it.

"A Post-Heaven Supreme Treasure?!"

Kang Qizu's expression changed, and with a crack, his palm bones fractured!

This was still the effect of him using the Yin-Yang power within his body to protect himself; otherwise, his entire palm would probably have exploded into a blood mist.

Many disciples watching the battle were silent.

They did not expect that the powerful Kang Qizu in their eyes would actually be injured at the hands of Ye Lin.

You must know that Kang Qizu is a cultivator of the Yin-Yang Realm, while Ye Lin is merely in the middle stage of the Heaven-Stiff Realm.

Crossing two major realms to injure an enemy—isn't this a bit too heaven-defying?

"Why are you still alive?"

Kang Qizu's expression was uncertain; logically speaking, having been hit by his Eight Desolations Wither-and-Flourish Finger, Ye Lin should have been dead for sure.

The Eight Desolations Wither-and-Flourish Finger not only cuts off a cultivator's vitality but also causes the cultivator's flesh and blood to wither completely.

"Go ask Master Lei about that."

"Forbidden Spell: World-Extinguishing Wild Lightning!"

Ye Lin couldn't be bothered to answer him, starting with another violent lightning strike.

Don't ask; if you ask, it's the Substitute-Death Technique.

However, he really had to thank Kang Qizu; just now, he had successfully survived another Life-and-Death Tribulation.

Previously, he had asked the peak masters of the Nine Peaks of the Immortal Cloud Sect to attack him, but those peak masters couldn't muster any real killing intent toward him, so asking them to kill him was useless.

But Kang Qizu was different; he genuinely wanted to kill him, so dying at his hands naturally counted as a Life-and-Death Tribulation.

If he could survive one thousand Life-and-Death Tribulations, his Hundred-Tribulation Imperial Body would be able to transform into a Thousand-Tribulation Saint Body; by then, his physical combat power would also undergo earth-shaking changes.

Boom!

Lightning tore through the sky, whistling down toward Kang Qizu like a true dragon of world destruction.

Facing the violent lightning, Kang Qizu frowned, then suddenly smiled.

"Although this forbidden spell is quite powerful, with your Heaven-Stiff Realm cultivation, how many times can you withstand the backlash of this forbidden spell?"

Kang Qizu condensed a desolate shield, forcibly blocking this violent lightning.

Hearing this, Ye Lin raised his eyebrows.

"It's been a long time since anyone asked me how many times I can withstand the backlash of a forbidden spell. Since that's the case, I'll perform a man-made Heavenly Tribulation for you today!"

"Hmph, bragging, are you? A man-made Heavenly Tribulation? Create one and let me see!" Kang Qizu sneered.

"I really will create one." Ye Lin looked at him.

"Go ahead and create it. I'm afraid that before the Heavenly Tribulation even takes shape, you'll die from the backlash of the forbidden spell." Kang Qizu didn't take Ye Lin's threat seriously at all.

"When I create one, I never consider any backlash."

Ye Lin stretched his muscles, his face full of smiles.

"After so many years, finally someone told me that I can cast forbidden spells as I please."

"The formation of a Heavenly Tribulation is mainly due to the lightning elements between heaven and earth gathering together at an extremely fast speed, causing the lightning elements to collide with each other, which can form even more terrifying power."

After hearing Ye Lin's words, Kang Qizu's expression became a bit more solemn.

"Who exactly are you?"

"You'll know soon."

Ye Lin raised his hand.

"Pardon my display!"
