he couldn’t believe that Flame Venerable had been slain by Lin Xuan, yet the scene before his eyes confirmed that it was all true!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially when he saw the remains of Flame Venerable, he felt as if struck by lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Lin Xuan made his move again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seized the moment of Thunderbolt Venerable’s brief distraction, transforming into a streak of sword light, charging forward swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strike was still the Outer Heaven Flying Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword light shone brightly, like a galaxy roaring through the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space split apart, emitting a piercing noise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, the terrifying Sword Qi had already arrived in front of Thunderbolt Venerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderbolt Venerable shuddered; his eyes regained clarity as surges of thunder raced around his body, swiftly moving sideways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phut!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thunder Armor on his chest shattered, a dreadful crack spreading, nearly splitting him in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderbolt Venerable was severely injured and his body was sent flying backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan, seizing his successful strike, quickly followed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderbolt Venerable was terrified; he couldn’t believe that Lin Xuan’s swordsmanship was so fierce that it had inflicted severe injuries on him in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panic in his eyes, the severity of his own injuries, coupled with the news of Flame Venerable’s death, caused his heart to tremble uncontrollably and made him unconsciously develop a sense of fear towards Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This emotion was terrifying, especially during a fight against a powerful opponent, as it could potentially affect combat power and lead to being slain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderbolt Venerable knew this, but he couldn’t shake off the fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helpless, Lin Xuan had brought too much shock to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a roar, Thunderbolt Venerable also dared not continue fighting and chose to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Thunderbolt Venerable, this choice was wise as his right arm was broken and he had sustained severe injuries, considerably lowering his combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the fear in his heart almost stopped him from facing Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, fleeing was indeed the best decision for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lin Xuan merely scoffed in disdain; for a martial artist, the most important thing was not the martial techniques or cultivation methods, but a strong heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a heart set on victory, possessing anything else was futile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the fleeing, pitiable figure, Lin Xuan’s eyes shone brightly, and the Great Dragon Sword Soul within him roared most vigorously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Venerables of the Divine Bird Palace were powerful, used to living in glory and acting arrogantly, their shortcomings were exposed once a real fight to the death occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan, however, was different; he came from the humble and remote Tian Nan Domain and had battled his way through numerous challenges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything he had was earned through his own hard-fought battles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he possessed a strong and confident heart and an unyielding will to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the most crucial aspects of a martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a deep breath, Lin Xuan thrust his sword, and the Sword Qi hurtled forward, condensing into a crimson star that swiftly streaked across the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Star burst!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void split open, emitting uneasy noises, and in an instant, the crimson star reached behind Thunderbolt Venerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A horrific explosion occurred, engulfing him in a terrifying surge of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunderbolt Venerable cried out in despair, before being swallowed by the energy tempest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, when the horrific energy had dissipated, a charred body fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan turned around, motioning to the Dark Red Divine Dragon and Snow White Monkey, and quickly broke through the prohibition array to leave the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan did not seek out Murong Qingcheng further but fixed on a direction, transformed into a sword light, and vanished into the sky in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a day later, three figures descended, gasping at the sight of the battleground, destroyed beyond recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, these three were from Murong Qingcheng’s team; their eyes widened in shock as they looked at the horrifying Sword Souls and shattered corpses strewn across the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the Venerable of the Divine Bird Palace, dead beyond doubt, seems like Lin Xuan has already safely left,” the middle-aged scholar said solemnly, looking around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That bastard actually killed the Venerable of the Divine Bird Palace!” Ling’er covered her mouth, shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m afraid it’s not just the Thunderbolt Venerable, but the Flame Venerable couldn’t escape death either,” the middle-aged scholar pointed to a fragment in the distance and spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is this possible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that bastard even human?” Ling’er was incredibly shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Qingcheng’s gaze flickered too; she was indeed stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her view, Lin Xuan being taken away by two Venerables was almost certainly doomed, but the outcome had turned out to be a shocking reversal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a deep breath to compose herself, her resolve strengthening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a Supreme Genius, she must recruit him into her ranks!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was too shocking; Lin Xuan had merely condensed a Sword Soul and slain two Venerables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such combat power was absolutely against the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Lin Xuan was only eighteen years old, which, according to the norms of the Heavenly Martial Continent, meant he had just come of age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a Martial Artist definitely had astonishing potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without unforeseen circumstances, he could certainly become the most formidable combat power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go, to the War God Palace!” Murong Qingcheng turned and led the two away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan had not hurried on his way, but instead found a safe place to recover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The recent battle had been swift but extremely perilous; he had used some trump cards, and his energy was considerably depleted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, after leaving the battlefield, he found a concealed spot to swiftly restore his physical strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, Lin Xuan opened his eyes, his body recovering to its peak condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he took out two Storage Rings, showing a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two Storage Rings naturally belonged to the two Venerables of the Divine Bird Palace; he had protected them during the fight, so they were not damaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his first time acquiring a Venerable’s Storage Ring, so he was somewhat excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Soul Power surged out, heading towards the two Storage Rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he quickly felt a force blocking him, Lin Xuan knew that this was the soul restriction on the Storage Rings, meant to hinder others from probing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevertheless, Lin Xuan huffed coldly, his Soul accompanied by the Great Dragon Sword Soul swiftly stabbed downwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of shattering echoed as the soul restrictions on the two Storage Rings were instantly broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Lin Xuan’s Soul Power probed inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, he gasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space inside the Storage Rings was vast, about half a city in size, ten times larger than his Storage Belt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan estimated that these Storage Rings must be Spirit Grade High Grade Treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Storage Belt was just a normal Low Grade Spiritual Treasure; the two were not on the same level at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from the expansive storage space, the contents inside also made Lin Xuan exclaim in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mid Grade Spirit Stones piled up like mountains, all sorts of materials, Spirit Grass, Martial Arts, and Treasures were everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan had also obtained quite a few Storage Rings, but those combined couldn’t even compare to one ten-thousandth of what was here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, this was quite normal; those two Venerables had lived for several hundred years, and all their most precious treasures were in these Storage Rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, both were elders of the Divine Bird Palace, with esteemed positions, and the resources they held were absolutely astonishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, struck rich!” Lin Xuan laughed wildly, this was unquestionably a staggering fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>",1321,"2026-06-06T00:47:00.791Z",1,"novelbin.me","1c7d855d7e9a42c0e2e0a146fbd162516e98341ba479926dbfbb2c5f0da5cf87","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-688","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-686",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
