Outside, the Nine Luminaries Sword Formation's frenzied assault continued. Lin Chuan's conversation with the Tailed Beast within his dantian seemed to have taken a long time, but in reality, it had lasted only an instant. By the time Lin Chen realized something was wrong, Lin Chuan's Tailed Beast transformation had already begun!
In an instant, the entire space was overtaken by a violent, cold, evil aura. The Susanoo around Lin Chuan abruptly contracted, replaced by dark crimson energy that surged forth wildly!
"What is this...?"
Lin Chen frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on the dark crimson energy that had suddenly appeared around Lin Chuan. For some reason, the instant that energy emerged, he felt danger rising from the depths of his heart.
"I can't let him continue! Nine Luminaries Sword Formation—Slaughter!"
The moment he sensed the threat, Lin Chen immediately took countermeasures. The sword seals in his hands changed in a flash, and the sword formation, which had previously focused on harassment and attrition, instantly erupted with astonishing sharpness. A terrifying aura rose as killing intent spread through the air.
The next moment, controlled by its two main swords, the Nine Luminaries Sword Formation launched directly at Lin Chuan. Its razor-sharp sword qi instantly tore apart the Tailed Beast Cloak that had just formed around him, even reaching his body and carving bloody gashes across him!
Yet Lin Chuan acted as though nothing had happened, still frantically guiding the eruption of energy. The wounds that had just been torn open on his body healed at a visible rate, leaving behind no trace whatsoever!
At that moment, Lin Chuan's eyes slowly opened. Those familiar Mangekyō Sharingan were gone, replaced by a pair of dark yellow, star-like eyes. Their gaze was utterly inhuman, filled with endless madness and slaughter, just like that
