Lin Ge's Might

The Lei Clan courtyard was in total chaos, with screams rising one after another.

"Tsk tsk, to have so many Heaven Origin Realm experts appear all at once—what a grand display."

Lin Ge looked toward the depths of the Lei Clan's backyard at the four figures rapidly closing in, his face showing not a hint of panic, but rather a touch of amusement.

With the Lei Clan's trump cards now revealed, Lin Ge remained so indifferent that Lei Bao's anger only intensified.

"You're at death's door and still putting on a calm front? Let this old man tear off your mask."

The few exchanges they had earlier made it clear to Lei Bao that his opponent's strength was no less than his own, so he unleashed his full power for this strike.

"Hmph, self-righteous."

Lin Ge sneered and thrust his sword forward.

The sword intent imbued within the iron blade erupted with astonishing force, resembling a violent tiger intent on tearing its prey to shreds.

The two forces collided, sending Lei Bao flying backward as he spat blood, his expression one of sheer horror.

He, Lei Bao, a dignified peak Heaven Origin Realm expert, could not even block a single strike from someone at the early Heaven Origin Realm!

"No, you are absolutely not at the early Heaven Origin Realm!"

Recalling the terrifying Yuan Power he felt the moment their palms met, Lei Bao couldn't help but roar.

"Only realizing it now? Too late!"

Lin Ge sneered again, his figure flickering as he instantly unleashed three sword blades, which flew toward Lei Bao.

Lei Bao scrambled to dodge, retreating violently. After narrowly avoiding the first two blades, he had no time to evade the third, leaving him no choice but to cross his fists in front of him, pouring his Yuan Power into them in a desperate bid to withstand the final strike.

However, he had severely underestimated this last blade; the powerful sword qi contained within sent him flying instantly, crashing into the ground with such force that the earth buckled, forming a pit a zhang wide.

"Clan Head!"

The expressions of several Lei Clan elders shifted drastically as they rushed to Lei Bao's side.

Lei Bao was now heavily wounded, his face pale and over a dozen bones shattered, leaving him unable to move.

An elderly elder hurriedly retrieved a wooden bottle from his Universe Bag, slowly applying the medicinal powder inside onto Lei Bao's wounds.

The powder took effect rapidly; the injuries on Lei Bao's surface began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. After only a few seconds, Lei Bao was able to move his body normally, and a hint of color returned to his pale, aged face.

"Blood Coagulation Powder!"

Lin Ge stared at the wooden bottle, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes.

He was all too familiar with that wooden bottle; it was the Blood Coagulation Powder he had given to Li Quan, a holy medicine for treating wounds. He had only heard that the medicine was bought by a mysterious person, never imagining it would end up in the hands of the Lei Clan.

"Cough, cough... I never expected that in just over ten days, you would grow to such a degree. I underestimated you."

Lei Bao slowly stood up, gazing at Lin Ge with a grave expression as he spoke coldly.

"Did you not ask earlier if I regretted provoking you?"

Lin Ge was slightly stunned, then nodded, watching Lei Bao quietly, waiting to hear what he had to say.

"Not only do I not regret it, but I feel a sense of fortune."

Lei Bao's expression gradually returned to calm.

Everything he had encountered earlier had indeed made him furious, but Lin Ge's strike, while leaving him severely wounded, had also restored his clarity and reason.

"Fortune?"

Lin Ge frowned, looking at Lei Bao in confusion.

"You are indeed a peerless genius. In all my years, I have never seen a talent like you. But even a genius needs sufficient time to grow before they can translate their talent into true strength."

As Lei Bao spoke, he sneered repeatedly, his eyes revealing a touch of confidence.

"What are you trying to say?"

Lin Ge looked at Lei Bao with a calm gaze, speaking indifferently.

"I mean that if it were a few months from now, perhaps you would have grown into an existence that even the combined forces of the Lei and Xie Clans could not handle. But unfortunately, it is not a few months from now." Lei Bao had largely recovered by this point, his complexion returning to normal, and his tone grew heavier.

"Are you saying that you can defeat me now?"

Lin Ge was quite dismissive of Lei Bao's words, his tone laced with sarcasm.

Lei Bao naturally saw the disdain in Lin Ge's eyes, but his state of mind remained unaffected. Instead, he spoke with unusual calm: "I am certainly no match for you alone, but..."

Before he could finish, four figures suddenly appeared. Each of them radiated the powerful, suffocating aura of a peak Heaven Origin Realm expert.

Lin Ge's gaze narrowed as he looked at the four elders who had suddenly appeared, though his expression remained unchanged.

"Lei Bao, what is the meaning of this?"

The speaker was the elder standing in the center of the four. He swept his gaze across the scene, a cold light erupting from his eyes as he spoke frigidly.

"Elder Lei Feng, I will explain the details to you later. For now, please join me in finishing off this brat!"

Lei Bao leaped up, arrived beside Lei Feng, and pointed at Lin Ge, speaking coldly.

"Lei Bao, what did you just say? Join forces to kill the brat in front of us? Have you lost your mind? This old man cannot bring himself to do something so shameless."

The elder beside Lei Feng heard this, his expression turning ugly as he spoke sharply.

To have all four of them attack a mere ten-year-old child at once—if others were to find out, wouldn't they be gossiped about and called shameless? He was a man who valued his reputation, and he could not bring himself to do such a thing.

"Esteemed Elders, do not underestimate this brat. His strength has already surpassed the peak of the Heaven Origin Realm and reached the Half-Step Origin Pellet Realm!"

Lei Bao let out a sharp cry, his expression exceptionally cold.

"Half-Step Origin Pellet!"

The four old men were slightly startled, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"You talk far too much."

Lin Ge curled his lip and struck out with his sword toward one of the four.

The sword light flashed, moving with such extreme speed that it arrived before the old man in an instant.

Facing this sword light, the old man's expression changed drastically; with no time to think, he immediately channeled all his strength into a punch to meet the attack.

Boom!

The violent surge of Origin Power erupted like an explosion, knocking the old man directly back to the edge of the roof, a trace of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Everything happened too quickly; the other three elders had no time to react before their companion was sent reeling several meters back.

"It seems Lei Bao was right; this brat is indeed formidable."

Lei Feng watched Lin Ge with a gloomy expression, his voice heavy.

"To repel Elder Lei Mu in a single move—it appears he has indeed reached the Half-Step Origin Pellet Realm," Lei Lin said coldly.

"The five of you come at me together. In a one-on-one fight, you are simply no match for me."

Lin Ge smiled mockingly, his tone casual.

"Esteemed Elders, kill him, and the Lei Clan will be rid of a major threat!"

Lei Bao's killing intent was palpable, his icy gaze piercing toward Lin Ge like a blade.

"Very well, today we shall cast aside our old pride and kill this brat together!"

The four elders exchanged glances for a few seconds, reading each other's intentions, before simultaneously erupting with terrifying auras and glaring coldly at Lin Ge.
