Chapter 92

The killing intent was like solid cold ice, instantly covering the entire inn. Lin Lin Xuan's independent small courtyard was locked by at least five powerful auras, three of which were late-stage Soul Formation, and two were peak mid-stage Soul Formation! This lineup far exceeded the attack in the alley before, obviously determined to leave him behind and kill him for treasure!

"It seems that the move at the auction was still too ostentatious." Lin Lin Xuan sneered in his heart, but there was no panic on his face. He had long expected this, but he didn't expect the other party to come so quickly and so ruthlessly.

He didn't rush out immediately, but his spiritual sense spread like a tide, instantly penetrating the walls and arrays of the inn, and "seeing" the situation outside clearly.

Five cultivators surrounded the courtyard in a semicircle. The three leaders were the Zhao Clan direct descendants who had bid against him at the auction—a young man with a soft and feminine face and narrow eyes, with a late-stage Soul Formation cultivation; behind him stood two cold-looking old men, also late-stage Soul Formation, obviously guards. The other two were wearing night clothes similar to the assassins in the alley before, their auras flickering, as if merging into the night, they were the assassins of "Dark Shadow Tower," one late-stage Soul Formation, one peak mid-stage Soul Formation.

"Mu Lin Xuan! Get out and die!" The Zhao Clan youth, named Zhao Zhao Wuji, no longer had the disguise at the auction, full of ferocity and greed, "Hand over Star-Cleansing Lotus and that piece of star iron, and this young master might leave you a whole corpse!"

The late-stage Soul Formation assassin of Dark Shadow Tower added in a hoarse voice: "The employer has an order to take your life, and your soul will be destroyed."

Before the words fell, the five people attacked at the same time!

Zhao Zhao Wuji sacrificed a long spear lingering with black flames, the spear was like a dragon, carrying nether ghost fire that corroded the soul, stabbing straight at the core of the courtyard! The two Zhao Clan old men each performed a huge palm print, covering the sky and the sun, containing the weight of mountains; one waved a whisk, and thousands of silver threads turned into an incomparably sharp blade storm, sweeping over!

The two Dark Shadow Tower assassins were even more weird, their figures disappeared like ghosts, and the next moment, countless fine space cracks and shadow blades had silently cut toward the courtyard, blocking all space for evasion!

A joint strike by five Soul Formation powerhouses was enough to flatten this inn and the nearby blocks!

Just at this critical moment!

"Hum—!"

A strange hum, not from Lin Lin Xuan, but from the unknown star iron in his dust ring!

As if sensing the violent energy and killing intent from the outside world, the star iron vibrated on its own, those holes on the surface lit up again, and that incomplete three-dimensional star map was projected uncontrollably, instantly expanding, covering the entire courtyard, and even an area above the courtyard!

The star map rotated, as if temporarily cutting this space out of Qingmu Ancient City and incorporating it into a miniature starry sky domain!

Zhao Zhao Wuji's nether ghost fire spear pierced into the range of the star map, and the flames on the spear body were like encountering a natural enemy, rapidly dimming and extinguishing! That huge palm print and the whisk silver thread storm hit the slowly rotating star map light curtain, like a mud ox entering the sea, and the power was decomposed layer by layer!

And the weird space cracks and shadow blades of the Dark Shadow Tower assassins, the moment they touched the star map, were like hitting the strongest star barrier, shattering and disintegrating one after another, unable to invade at all!

"What?!"

"What is this?!"

Zhao Zhao Wuji and the five people's faces changed drastically, looking at this gorgeous and mysterious star map light curtain in disbelief. Their joint strike was actually easily blocked by this suddenly appearing star map?!

In the box, Lin Lin Xuan was also slightly stunned, and then essence light shot out in his eyes. He didn't expect this piece of star iron to have the miraculous effect of autonomous protection and evolution of defensive domain! And this star map domain had a strong restraint effect on nether ghost fire, shadow power, and even space cutting!

"Good treasure!" Lin Lin Xuan was overjoyed in his heart, this fifteen thousand spirit stones were well spent!

He didn't hesitate, and took the initiative to attack while the other party was stunned!

His figure flashed, and he appeared outside the star map domain, facing Zhao Zhao Wuji and the five people. The Chaos Dao seed was fully operated, and the majestic spiritual power of the late-stage Soul Formation was like a volcanic eruption!

He didn't use any fancy moves, just punched out simply!

This punch condensed the origin power of the Chaos Dao seed, and integrated his initial understanding of the "Zhou Tian Star Technique" and the star map of the star iron. On the fist, gray chaotic air currents wrapped around, in which countless tiny stars seemed to be born and destroyed, carrying a supreme will to destroy all laws and re-determine the earth, water, fire, and wind!

Chaos World-Breaking Fist!

Wherever the fist went, the space made an unbearable wail, revealing fine black cracks!

The first to bear the brunt was the Zhao Clan old man who performed the whisk silver thread storm. He felt the terrifying power contained in this punch, his face changed wildly, and he frantically operated the whisk, thousands of silver threads like a waterfall rolling backward, trying to entangle and strangle Lin Lin Xuan's fist.

However, useless!

Where the Chaos Fist Gang passed, the thousands of silver threads that could cut refined gold were broken and annihilated inch by inch like fragile hair! The fist momentum did not decrease, directly hitting the body of the whisk of extraordinary quality!

"Crack!"

The whisk shattered in response!

The fist energy penetrated the body!

The Zhao Clan old man screamed, his chest collapsed instantly, and his whole person flew backward like a broken sack, spraying blood from his mouth, the vitality in his eyes dissipated rapidly, and he was actually killed by a punch!

"Third Elder!" Zhao Zhao Wuji was heartbroken, surprised and angry.

The other Zhao Clan old man and the two Dark Shadow Tower assassins were also horrified, and their offensive slowed down.

Lin Lin Xuan did not forgive, his figure was like electricity, avoiding the nether spear stabbed by Zhao Zhao Wuji, and pointed like a sword, pointing straight at the Zhao Clan old man who performed the giant palm. The gray star-ghost light at the fingertips flickered, which was the Silence Star Finger that integrated the new understanding!

The old man roared, his palms overlapped, and the thick earth-yellow spiritual power condensed into a giant shield.

"Sizzle—!"

The finger energy pointed on the giant shield, there was no loud noise, only a slight sound like a bubble bursting.

The giant shield and the old man's arms behind it instantly turned into powder! The remaining power of the finger energy did not decrease, piercing his eyebrows!

The second late-stage Soul Formation, fallen!

In the blink of an eye, two Zhao Clan late-stage Soul Formation guards died!

All this happened too fast, from Lin Lin Xuan's move to killing two people in a row, it was just a blink of an eye!

Zhao Zhao Wuji was scared out of his wits, he finally realized what a hard iron plate he had kicked! This "Mu Lin Xuan" was not an ordinary Soul Formation rogue cultivator at all, his strength was terrifying to the point of being outrageous!

"Run!" He had no fighting spirit anymore, burned his essence blood, his body turned into a nether light, and he was about to escape.

The two Dark Shadow Tower assassins were even more decisive, seeing that the situation was not good, their figures directly merged into the shadows, and they were about to deploy secret techniques to escape.

"You come when you want, and leave when you want?"

Lin Lin Xuan's cold voice was like a death god's whisper.

With a thought, the star map domain covering the courtyard expanded suddenly, and the starlight flourished! A powerful imprisonment force permeated, like an invisible mud, making Zhao Wuji and the two Dark Shadow Tower assassins' figures freeze suddenly!

At the same time, Lin Lin Xuan opened his mouth and spat!

"Clang!"

A clear sword sound rang through the night sky!

The Chaos Immortal-Slaying Sword Embryo, initially tempered by Geng Metal Spirit Marrow, was unsheathed for the first time! The sword body was gray, but flowing with chaotic air currents and fine golden patterns, emitting a sharp sword intent to cut everything and slay immortals and demons!

The sword light flashed, like the first ray of light opened in chaos!

The speed was to the extreme!

"Puff! Puff!"

Two soft sounds, the two Dark Shadow Tower assassins who were trying to escape into the shadows, their figures had just been virtualized in half, when they were swept by the sword light, from head to toe, together with the Soul Formation, were neatly cut into two halves, instantly dying!

Lin Lin Xuan held the sword embryo, his eyes coldly looking at Zhao Zhao Wuji, who was imprisoned by the star map domain and full of despair.

"No! Don't kill me! I am a direct descendant of the Zhao Clan! If you kill me, the Zhao Clan will not rest until you die!" Zhao Zhao Wuji screamed crazily, his color fierce but his heart weak.

"Zhao Clan?" A mocking arc appeared at the corner of Lin Lin Xuan's mouth, "I'm waiting."

The sword embryo trembled slightly, and a gray sword energy shot out.

Zhao Zhao Wuji's begging for mercy stopped abruptly, a small red dot appeared on his eyebrows, and the spirit in his eyes dissipated rapidly. His body fell softly, and his vitality was cut off.

A direct descendant of the Qingmu Ancient City Zhao Clan, fallen!

In a short while, five Soul Formation powerhouses, all wiped out!

Lin Lin Xuan waved his hand to collect the star map domain and the Chaos Immortal-Slaying Sword Embryo, looking at the corpses all over the ground, his eyes indifferent. He quickly cleaned up the battlefield, collected the storage bags and useful magic weapons of several people, and then cast several groups of Chaos Dao Fire to turn the corpses into ashes.

After doing all this, he looked up at the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. The battle movement here was weakened by more than half by the star map domain, but the energy fluctuation must have attracted the attention of the strong in the city.

Must leave immediately!

However, just as he was about to set off—

"Screech—!"

A Luan cry, although weak, was still clear and noble, carrying a trace of joy, sounded from the cave dwelling magic treasure in his body!

It's Feng Xi! Under the medicinal power of the Star-Cleansing Pill, it woke up! And, it seems to have recovered a trace of vitality!

Lin Lin Xuan was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately sank his mind into the cave dwelling.

I saw that inside the cave dwelling, the Qingluan Feng Xi had already stood up, although its body was still a bit shaky, and its cyan feathers were far from recovering their past divine light, but the cyan-golden eyes had regained their spirit. The domineering star power remaining in its body had been resolved by more than half by the Star-Cleansing Pill!

"Master..." Feng Xi transmitted gratitude and submission with divine sense, "Thank you, Master, for saving my life and healing my wounds! Feng Xi feels much better."

"Very good." Lin Xuan nodded, "This place should not be stayed in for long, we need to leave Qingmu Ancient City immediately."

"Master, I can help!" Feng Xi struggled to shake its wings, "Although my injuries are not healed, carrying Master for a short distance is no problem! And, my speed is much faster than ordinary light!"

Lin Lin Xuan pondered slightly, and agreed. Having a Green Phoenix as a substitute, not only could save spiritual power, but the speed was also faster, and it could also show a certain identity, making some petty people have concerns.

His figure flashed, left the inn, and at the same time released Feng Xi from the cave dwelling.

A cyan light flashed, a divine bird, extraordinary and divine, although carrying injuries but still majestic, appeared under the night sky of Qingmu Ancient City! The cyan wings flowed with brilliance in the moonlight, instantly attracting countless shocked eyes in the whole city!

"It's a Green Phoenix!"

"God! Is that really the divine bird that fought the Star Palace descendant a few days ago? How could it be here?"

"There is someone on its back! Who is it?!"

Under the gaze of countless shocked, envious, and jealous eyes, Lin Lin Xuan landed lightly on Feng Xi's wide back.

Feng Xi let out a clear long cry announcing its return, spread its wings, rolled up a cyan whirlwind, turned into a cyan rainbow, instantly broke through the clouds, and galloped toward the Imperial Capital in the east, disappearing into the depths of the night in the blink of an eye.

Leaving only an uproar and shock that could not be calmed down for a long time in Qingmu Ancient City.

The name "Mu Lin Xuan," and his figure driving the Green Phoenix, are destined to spread in all directions at a more violent speed after tonight!
