otherwise, he wouldn’t have extended an invitation for a life and death battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s known within the Immortal Martial Academy that killing fellow disciples is prohibited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, the previous battle between Lin Xuan and Yan Qingyang only resulted in the opponent being wounded without fatal harm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, if a fight breaks out here now, Yan Qingyang can only defeat Lin Xuan but not kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Life and Death Platform is different; it’s a place for academy members to resolve lethal conflicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fights and friction are common among martial artists, especially among those who are geniuses and are arrogant, unwilling to admit defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If within the academy, a martial artist reaches a stage of undying animosity, they can apply to the Life and Death Platform to settle matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Yan Qingfeng has challenged Lin Xuan to a battle to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life and Death Platform—upon hearing the words, Lin Xuan squinted his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he knew about the Life and Death Platform and its rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you enter, only one of the two can come out alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems the opponent truly intends to kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this is also good; his enmity with the Yan family has long been irreconcilable, better to eliminate this genius now than leave a threat for later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the opponent ranks thirtieth on the Xuanzun list; defeating him means Lin Xuan’s rank will leap from the seventies straight to thirtieth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From any perspective, the benefits for Lin Xuan are immense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he had no reason to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten days later, a battle to the death on the Life and Death Platform, as you wish!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’s voice rang with determination, his gaze unwavering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding crowd was shocked; many gasped in amazement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t believe Lin Xuan dared accept a deadly duel; doesn’t he know the opponent’s strength?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Qingfeng is a Third Level Venerable, and not an ordinary one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself is a genius, and an old student of the Immortal Martial Academy, surely holding numerous trump cards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a person is already far superior to those of the same level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan, though formidable, capable of combat beyond his rank, can at best defeat a Second Level Venerable, not enough to contend with a genius like Yan Qingfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s even a chance of being instantly killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Lin Xuan’s reply, Yan Qingfeng also smiled cruelly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I advise you to enjoy your last days, for ten days later, I will surely slay you beneath my blade!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He laughed coldly, turning to leave with the people from the Dao Ling Association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Qingyang looked at Lin Xuan with eyes full of mockery and disdain; the opponent daring to fight his brother to the death is truly seeking his own demise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could hardly wait to relish the scene when Lin Xuan is killed in ten days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about this, Yan Qingyang felt a twisted satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have confidence?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Murong Qingcheng asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not much, just three to four percent.” Lin Xuan replied, “He knows Yan Qingfeng is an extremely tough opponent, so he is not overconfident.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only three or four percent?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Qingcheng widened her eyes, complaining, “With such a small chance of success, you actually dared accept a death match.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I really don’t know what you’re thinking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, we still have ten days.” Lin Xuan smiled comfortingly, “Within ten days, if I can break through to the Second Layer Heaven, my chances of winning will increase substantially.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By then, perhaps a miracle might occur.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Breakthrough?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Murong Qingcheng flashed him a glance, “Seems you’ve already planned it out, why didn’t you say it earlier, making me worry for nothing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, were you worried about me just now?” Lin Xuan suddenly laughed, “To receive your concern, Murong Heavenly Woman, even if I die it would be without regrets.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He laughed twice and turned, heading towards the Intermediate Spirit Gathering Array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You! Hmph! Who cares about you.” Murong Qingcheng’s face turned a little red, stomping her feet in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten days to break through to Second Level Venerable is extremely tight, but Lin Xuan has such confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previous battle in Wind-Seeking City had benefited him greatly; his Spiritual Power had long reached the peak of First Level Venerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With proper guidance, he believes he can soon smoothly break through to Second Layer Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the advantage of combat; that’s why countless martial artists fight with all their might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through combat, skills can be enhanced, martial arts refined, and sometimes, one can directly break through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Lin Xuan has been fighting with the topmost experts each time fiercely, hence his pace of breakthrough far exceeds those of the same level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five days later, Lin Xuan successfully broke through, his internal Spiritual Energy nearly doubling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, he felt his connection with the Great Dragon Sword Soul becoming even closer, that seamless control irresistible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, the improvement in cultivation is of great benefit to him; Lin Xuan estimated his current strength was doubled from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now against Shangguan Xian, Kuang Zhan, Lin Xuan was confident to defeat them easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current strength, facing ordinary Third Level Venerables posed no pressure; even against a genius martial artist like Yan Qingfeng, he was confident of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, for the competition in five days, Lin Xuan had no worries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Lin Xuan began consolidating his cultivation and analyzing other martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, ten days passed, and the entire Immortal Martial Academy surged with a tide of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because today is the combat day between Yan Qingfeng and Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t an ordinary battle; first, both are experts on the Xuanzun list, with Yan Qingfeng being particularly noteworthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, a Third Level Venerable, ranked thirtieth among the Xuanzun Party’s genius martial artists, was exceptionally brilliant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, their battle isn’t just a regular challenge, but a deadly duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such fights are extraordinarily fierce, often ending only with the death of one party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent years, such battles have been rare in the Immortal Martial Academy, which is why everyone is so excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, Lin Xuan possesses a Half Earth-grade Treasure, which is another reason for their anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While many don’t favor Lin Xuan, they believe if he uses the Lonely Star Sword, he could at least hold Yan Qingfeng at bay for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the possibility of overturning the situation is nearly non-existent, at most allowing Lin Xuan to persist longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This analysis came from the academy’s top experts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their view, this is already impressive; by their calculations, if Lin Xuan doesn’t use the Lonely Star Sword, he likely wouldn’t withstand even one blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This day, the weather was clear and the breeze gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within Immortal Martial Academy, countless disciples hurried towards one direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each wore expressions of excitement and anticipation on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, in a corner of the Immortal Martial Academy, stood a vast arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This arena, ancient, full of a weathered aura, is an Ancient Arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s said this arena was built by a King, and below the King Realm, no Venerable can destroy it, ideal for conducting deadly duels of extreme brutality.\u003C\u002Fp>",1228,"2026-06-06T00:47:03.151Z",1,"novelbin.me","4fc93d413bc5d0aea6c7b49b82d681101480e514b723f3a61f907ee23c20cb8a","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-850","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-848",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
