Lin Xuan froze, and for a moment he could not make sense of the other party's intentions. So he met change by remaining unchanged, hovering in midair without rashly launching an attack.
The atmosphere seemed somewhat eerie.
"This is Nine Palaces Instantaneous... What is your relationship with the Heavenly Witch Goddess?"
The loose-haired cultivator's expression turned incomparably cold and dark, the venom in his voice plain to hear.
"What right do you have to make Lin tell you?"
Lin Xuan's expression was a little better now.
That strike just now had been certain to hit, yet it had produced no effect, and Lin Xuan had indeed been greatly shocked. But on careful recollection, although the other party had not dodged, at the very instant the Nine Palaces Instantaneous Sword was about to land, his body had turned into something transparent.
That was why the Immortal Sword had passed through him without producing the slightest effect.
It was only that the transformation had been too swift, and even Lin Xuan had overlooked it in that instant.
"Illusion Spirit Transformation into Void!"
Lin Xuan's breadth of experience truly was remarkable.
Not many people knew of this secret art, but Lin Xuan just so happened to have heard of it.
From the name alone, one could tell it bore some resemblance to Sword Spirit Transformation into Void.
It was just that Sword Spirit Transformation into Void was used on treasures; even after being shattered, they could still be reborn through that secret art.
Illusion Spirit Transformation into Void, however, was different. It had nothing to do with treasures, but was cultivated by Cultivators themselves. Legend said that once cultivated to an extremely profound level, one could train the body until it was like something formless.
Of course, that was not to say it
