The Unfortunate Bing Chen
"Who is that kid?"
"No idea! He seemed to appear out of nowhere!"
Lin Yu's appearance immediately drew cries of astonishment from the crowd of onlookers.
Just moments ago, apart from a handful of sharp-eyed people, no one had noticed Lin Yu at all!
But now, no one dared overlook him again!
Because Lin Yu had effortlessly caught that combined attack from ten people, which had looked capable of destroying heaven and earth!
"Kid, who are you? I'm warning you, what happens here is none of your business!"
Seeing Lin Yu catch his attack, Bing Chen's pupils abruptly contracted.
He sensed a hint of danger from this young man!
But things had reached this point, and Bing Chen was already an arrow on the bowstring-he had no choice but to loose it!
If he backed down now, wouldn't he be admitting he was inferior to a young man in his twenties?
That would feel worse than being killed!
Yet Lin Yu merely shook his head slightly.
At the sight, Bing Chen grew even more furious, rage blazing in his eyes!
Who knew how many years it had been since anyone had dared act so brazenly before him!
"Whatever your background, today I'll teach you a proper lesson on behalf of your elders!"
Bing Chen spoke through gritted teeth, his words making it clear that he was truly enraged!
"Ice Dragon's Reverse Scale!"
Light blazed between Bing Chen's hands as he unleashed his strongest ultimate move outright!
Before Bing Chen, the phantom of a snow-white divine dragon took shape, its overwhelming pressure leaving everyone present struggling to breathe!
"That's Extreme Cold Valley's supreme signature technique, Ice Dragon's Reverse Scale!"
"That young man is probably in for it!"
"Heavens, I've really had my eyes opened today!"
Someone cried out loudly in astonishment, never having expected Bing Chen to use even this move today!
And at that moment.
With countless shocked gazes gathered upon him.
Lin Yu merely gave a faint chuckle.
"Watch closely. This is how spiritual power is used."
Lin Yu flashed a carefree smile at the members of the Ling Household.
Then he raised his right hand, and a terrifying presence instantly gathered!
Overwhelming pressure spread throughout heaven and earth!
"Wh-what level of power is that..."
Behind Bing Chen, a Nascent Soul expert asked in a trembling voice, unmistakable fear showing in his eyes!
Even when he had once faced a Nascent Soul Eighth Stage expert, he had never felt this kind of terror that pierced deep into his soul!
Could the strength of the person before them have already surpassed Nascent Soul?
How was that possible!
Behind Bing Chen, several Nascent Soul experts broke out in cold sweat, their souls nearly fleeing their bodies in terror.
Today, they seemed to have provoked someone they simply could not afford to offend!
"Look, that young man seems to have gathered a very powerful attack too!"
"But against Bing Chen, it'll most likely still crumble at the first blow!"
"That's right! This supreme signature technique of Bing Chen's is truly powerful!"
Exclamations kept rising from the crowd. These people lacked the strength to tell which side was actually stronger.
And just as they cried out, the enormous ice dragon Bing Chen had summoned finally collided violently with the storm of energy in Lin Yu's hand!
What happened next stunned everyone beyond measure!
The ice dragon, which contained terrifying Nascent Soul Realm power, actually dissipated the instant it touched Lin Yu's hands!
It was as though it had never existed at all!
And at that moment, Bing Chen's expression finally darkened completely!
"How is this possible! Aaaaargh!"
Seeing the ice dragon shatter like something made of paper, the ice dragon's composure collapsed completely.
He could not accept that he would actually lose to a mere greenhorn!
"Die!!"
Overcome by desperate rage, Bing Chen actually summoned another ice dragon!
"Bing Chen has been forced to burn his soul?"
"Heh, Bing Chen's lost his head. If he can't win, he can still run. Why stay here and fight for his life?"
"That was Bing Chen's lifelong pride. With someone destroying it in an instant, how could he face himself?"
Someone in the crowd sighed. To think that Bing Chen, a hero of his generation, would meet such an end!
They had completely forgotten that less than a minute ago, they had still been discussing how Lin Yu would die at Bing Chen's hands.
Such was reality.
In everything, strength reigned supreme!
With strength, there would naturally be people welcoming you as an honored guest!
Without strength, you could only become a departed soul at someone else's hands!
Once, the souls who had perished at Bing Chen's hands had also been beyond counting.
Unfortunately, the person he had encountered today was Lin Yu!
"Failing to judge the situation is unwise."
As Bing Chen's second attack came toward him, a trace of impatience appeared on Lin Yu's face.
He raised his right hand and casually threw a punch!
This time, the power Lin Yu used far exceeded what he had used before!
Under Lin Yu's terrifying attack, the second ice dragon Bing Chen had summoned shattered instantly once again!
Bing Chen abruptly spat out a mouthful of blood, the light in his eyes instantly fading. He had clearly suffered severe injuries!
"How is this possible?"
Someone in the crowd cried out in shock. They simply could not believe that a Nascent Soul expert had lasted only two rounds against Lin Yu!
Who was this youth?
The same question arose in the minds of countless people present.
Probably not a single person could have predicted the direction today's grand spectacle would take!
By now, Bing Chen was utterly disheveled, his hair hanging loose behind his head. He could no longer use even the slightest bit of his Nascent Soul cultivation!
"Y-you... who exactly are you!"
Bing Chen looked at Lin Yu with a dejected expression. He knew he had lost.
"Heh, who I am isn't important."
"You simply came to the wrong place and provoked the wrong person."
Lin Yu shook his head, raised his right hand, and clenched it. Bing Chen immediately let out an agonized howl!
In that single instant, all of Bing Chen's meridians had been severed, and all his cultivation was lost!
Although he was still alive, he could never cultivate again!
For a cultivator, this kind of suffering was even worse than death!
The other Nascent Soul experts on Bing Chen's side were also frightened ashen, their souls nearly fleeing their bodies!
They exchanged glances, and in the next second, all of them fled backward at top speed!
They knew that if they stayed here, their fate would only be the same as that old fellow Bing Chen's!
"Only thinking of running now?"
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lin Yu's mouth.
Then an utterly terrifying surge of power erupted from within him!
The Nascent Soul experts who had just scattered in flight all abruptly stopped moving!
The next instant, their bodies eerily burst apart, reduced to fine dust!
There was no sound left in the sky, only deathly silence!
