Lin Yuan frowned. His opponent's cultivation technique was not weak—at the very least, it was a top-tier technique on the same level as the Supreme Sacred Heaven and Earth Technique and the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Formula.
Moreover, he had already cultivated it to the fifth level, the highest realm his current cultivation could reach.
He had also opened his Eight Extraordinary Meridians, producing protective qi.
Relying on this fifth-level technique and his tyrannical swordsmanship, filled with unparalleled killing intent, he had been able to contend against Lin Yuan's fourth-level Supreme Sacred Heaven and Earth Technique and Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Formula.
Furthermore, his sword qi and protective qi could block most of the Evil-Exorcising Divine Thunder's power. Although the remaining Evil-Exorcising Divine Thunder was still immensely powerful, it was not enough to kill him, and the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone was enough to restore him.
By this point in the battle, both Xuan Jian and Lin Yuan regretted things to some extent.
They both found the strength the other had displayed exceedingly troublesome.
Xuan Jian regretted sending the Six Sword Slaves to capture Xiao Wu.
Lin Yuan regretted not withdrawing promptly after his failed assassination attempt on Xuan Jian and after seizing the External Soul Bone.
I'll gamble on the final minute. If I still can't kill him within a minute, I'll retreat immediately.
As Lin Yuan considered this, the two had already rushed together. Azure-gold spear radiance and black-and-white sword qi crisscrossed, clashing against each other.
Under Lin Yuan's deliberate guidance, the forest within several hundred meters was destroyed in no time.
The surrounding grass and trees were sliced into fragments.
Seeing that his objective had been achieved, Lin Yuan's second soul ring lit up the instant he and Xuan Jian separated after another clash.
