Enemies Meet Again, Another Spell Duel
Seeing Lin Baixi accept the Mother-and-Child Resonance Stone, Lin Moqin said, "By doing this, you have already offended the Chen Clan. Why not join forces with us to deal with Chen Nianzhi and eliminate future troubles?"
"If you agree to join forces, the Purple Radiance Mirror will be yours after we succeed. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yiran's expression turned greedy. Tier 2 high-grade Law Artifact was so precious that even Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator would covet it.
However, after careful consideration, he suppressed his greed and shook his head in refusal.
"Chen Changxuan is the number one person in Yu Commandery. In the past, at Heavenly Ruins Mountain, he even single-handedly held off thirty Foundation Establishment Demon Beast for two quarters of an hour."
"I might be able to resolve the situation if he schemes against his own people, but it would be unwise to forge a blood feud with him."
"And to be honest, I don't trust you either."
"I advise you to make this trip as clean as possible, otherwise I'll have no choice but to flee to the Border Province."
Zhang Yiran speaking, he turned and left the courtyard.
Watching him leave, Lin Moqin's heart sank. He turned to Lin Baixi and advised, "Perhaps we should give up?"
"Chen Nianzhi is slightly stronger than you and me, and he also has the Purple Radiance Mirror. Even if we join forces to defeat him, we might not be able to kill him."
Unfortunately, Lin Baixi was no longer willing to listen to advice. His eyes were filled with a crazed, blood-red light as he grabbed Lin Moqin's hand and said tremblingly, "Uncle Mo Qin, if I don't avenge the loss of my arm, I will never have peace in this life."
"That scoundrel is Bu Fan talented, having broken through to the Foundation Establishment Second Layer in just a few years. If we cannot kill him now, we may never have another chance."
"Now that we have a feud, if we cannot suppress the Chen Clan, my Lin Clan will be purged sooner or later."
"But..." Lin Moqin hesitated, but couldn't help but advise, "With our cultivation levels, we might not be able to completely kill him."
"Uncle, rest assured." Lin Baixi revealed a sinister smile, his gaze cold, and said, " Of the Spirit Stone brought by the clan this time, I have already purchased an Wu Earth Divine Thunder Bead from the Fengyang Pavilion."
"What?"
Lin Moqin's expression changed. The Xu Clan's Wu Earth Divine Thunder Bead was a one-time divine thunder formed by the Purple Mansion cultivator condensing his own Divine Ability.
Although the power of the Wu Earth Divine Thunder Bead is far less than that of the Purple Mansion cultivator using it personally due to the limitations of its Divine Ability power carrier, if used properly, it is still enough to kill Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator.
The power and value of this Divine Thunder Pearl are in no way inferior to the Blazing Heaven Sword Talisman, which the Chen Clan family ancestors refined at great cost using precious materials. The Xu Clan is generally unwilling to sell this item.
This item should theoretically be worth around four thousand Spirit Stone, but Lin Baixi spent a hefty seven thousand Spirit Stone to buy it, which shows how determined she was.
"How could you act on your own?" Lin Moqin's expression changed several times before he finally said helplessly, "Alas, if we cannot kill him this time, it will likely bring disaster to the Lineage. You'd better think carefully."
Seeing that he had relented, Lin Baixi breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled, "Uncle, don't worry. With the Mother-and-Child Resonance Stone in hand, even if he survives a blow from the Wu Earth Divine Thunder Bead, he won't be able to escape our grasp."
"..."
Early the next morning, Chen Nianzhi bid farewell to Meng Xinghe and the others, and then flew towards Qingyuan Mountain in Yu Commandery.
Although the Kui Water Essence was a bit expensive, Chen Nianzhi considered herself to have successfully completed her mission by being able to purchase this item and three and a half Golden-whisker Silkworm Silk.
Not to mention, a Law Artifact was also purchased for the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder. The two elders had only recently Foundation Establishment, and their strength should have been at the bottom in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.
However, they now possess several magical Law Artifact, and even have Tier 2 treasured Law Artifact. Even though they can only unleash 70-80% of the power of Tier 2 Law Artifact due to insufficient True Essence, they are still quite powerful in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.
After flying for three days, covering approximately 10,000 li (about 5,000 kilometers), Chen Nianzhi Chen Nianzhi realized that something was wrong.
Chen Nianzhi was resting that day when two sword lights suddenly appeared from a distance, flanking her. Chen Nianzhi looked up and immediately recognized the attackers as Lin Baixi and Lin Moqin.
"The visitor is not friendly."
Chen Nianzhi's eyes turned cold. He was skilled and daring, and instead of retreating immediately, he charged directly at Lin Baixi.
Since the visitors were hostile, he decided to strike first while they were scattered and trying to encircle him.
Seeing Chen Nianzhi attack, Lin Baixi immediately unleashed her cyan sword light and the Barrier-Breaking Heart-Locking Awl.
He truly lived up to his reputation as Foundation Establishment from the Lin Clan; with just one move, he unleashed two mid-grade Tier 2 magic Law Artifact. Even ordinary mid- Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivators would likely frown and need to be cautious in dealing with him.
However, Chen Nianzhi is no longer the same as before. Only five years have passed since the Sword Duel at Qingyuan Mountain, and his cultivation has broken through another level, with his Law Power increasing by a notch.
The key change is that the Separation Flame Immortal-Return Sword has been upgraded to Tier 2. Its power is now far greater than it was five years ago, and the six-zhang Sword-Ray light it unleashes is exceptionally sharp, with offensive power no weaker than a Tier 2 magic Law Artifact.
A sword cry resounded through the void as the Separation Flame Immortal-Return Sword unleashed a dazzling sword aura. The azure Sword-Ray suddenly twisted, knocking away both the cyan flying sword and the Barrier-Breaking Heart-Locking Awl.
The sword light still had considerable momentum, and it slashed towards Lin Baixi with a clang. The power of this sword was far greater than before. Even though more than half of its power had been consumed by the two Law Artifact, it still had astonishing residual power.
If a sword were to strike, Lin Baixi's Defensive Magic Instrument would likely be broken in a single blow.
"Not good."
Seeing that Chen Nianzhi's hand was broken beyond recognition, Lin Moqin rushed over and hurriedly threw a three-inch throwing knife at him.
This blade, named the Void-Severing Flying Dagger, is Lin Moqin's signature magic Law Artifact. It is considered a fine piece even among Tier 2 weapons. When this treasure struck, it indeed worked on the first strike, blocking the remaining power of the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword.
Not only that, Lin Moqin, with his seasoned skills, once again unleashed a beam of golden light, aiming straight for Chen Nianzhi's brow. This was actually a mid-grade Tier 2 spear magic Law Artifact.
"Buzz--"
Chen Nianzhi unleashed the Jiuyi Bell, ignoring Lin Moqin's attack, and once again used her trump card.
A dazzling white light shot out; it was none other than the Great White Dust-Severing Blade.
This blade is Tier 2 high-grade magic Law Artifact. Chen Nianzhi can only unleash 70% of its power with his current True Essence, but it is still enough to easily kill Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivator, and even Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator has to take it seriously.
"The Great White Dust-Severing Blade?"
Just as Great White Dust-Severing Blade was about to strike, Lin Baixi, who had finally caught her breath, changed her expression and realized that she had miscalculated.
To his utter surprise, Chen Nianzhi not only had her Life-Bound Immortal Sword advance to the next rank, but she had also obtained this renowned magical Law Artifact of the Azure Sun Sect.
Left with no other choice, Lin Baixi gritted his teeth and summoned one of the Lin Clan's secrets, the Purple Sun Furnace. The Purple Sun Furnace released the Purple Sun Truefire, which poured down to try and refine the Great White Dust-Severing Blade.
"You dare use this Purple Sun Furnace in front of me?"
Chen Nianzhi sneered, and the Purple Radiance Mirror in her hand emitted a beam of light, causing the Purple Sun Furnace to fall to the ground.
