Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao kept talking back and forth, which completely confused Yan Tianxin.
Are these two bastards trying to reveal my secrets to Lin Heng?
Lin Heng, who was opposite Yan Tianxin, wanted to give Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao a thumbs up after hearing their words.
" Miao Jingkong, Lin Xiao, what nonsense are you two spouting?"
Seeing Lin Heng's strange expression, Yan Tianxin immediately questioned him angrily.
"Senior Yan Tianxin, I was praising your Fire Clan's Crimson Silk Sword!"
Miao Jingkong looked terrified and hurriedly explained.
Lin Xiao also put on a scared expression and explained, "Senior, I just happened to think of the battle between the owner of the Crimson Silk Sword and my Water Race elder, and that's why I blurted it out."
Yan Tianxin didn't believe their words. He could see Lin Heng was already pondering it; how dare they say their earlier words weren't a reminder to Lin Heng?
It's one thing to think about it, and their explanation is also plausible. If he were to actually attack these two juniors, Yan Tianxin would probably not be able to get past the Water Race and Wood Clan in the future.
Left with no other choice, Yan Tianxin could only swallow her anger for the time being, but she still issued a warning.
"For the sake of your two clans' elders, I can let bygones be bygones. But if you dare to spout nonsense again, hmph!"
After Yan Tianxin's warning, Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao quieted down, but was it any use keeping quiet now?
" Lin Heng! So what if you know that the Water Race's essence can restrain me?"
"Only Water Race creatures can awaken the Origin of Water."
Even if you possess Heavenly Venerable Origin Treasure of the Origin of Water, you still cannot unleash its true power.
Yan Tianxin sneered. The reason she didn't pursue what Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao had just said was because Yan Tianxin didn't believe that Lin Heng could use this weakness against her.
"Yeah?"
Lin Heng grinned, a smile that gave Yan Tianxin a sense of danger.
The next second, Lin Heng didn't wait any longer and made the first move!
Lin Heng raised the Eight-Origin Heaven-Piercing Spear high above his head, the spear tip drawing a beautiful arc in the sky.
As the words fell from the spear tip, a stream of water appeared, surging through the air and completely enveloping Lin Heng.
Lin Heng, whose body was obscured by the water curtain, could not see what he was doing inside for a moment.
Opposite Lin Heng, Yan Tianxin's grip on the Crimson Silk Sword tightened involuntarily.
" The Origin of Water?"
Yan Tianxin felt the fluctuations of the Origin of Water in the stream created by Lin Heng.
But he couldn't believe it. How could Lin Heng possibly control the Origin of Water, which only the Water Race could awaken over countless years?
Don't try to fool me with tricks!
Yan Tianxin roared, and the Crimson Silk Sword burst into flames in his hand.
Countless flames filled the sky, gradually surrounding Lin Heng.
At a certain moment, when Lin Heng was completely surrounded by flames, Yan Tianxin raised the Crimson Silk Sword and pointed it sharply forward.
" Heaven-Reaching Fireflies, Break!"
A chilling voice came from Yan Tianxin's mouth, and countless flames burst forth.
A series of furious roars echoed through the space, seemingly howling at the terrifying flames.
The next second, the light exploded, and countless explosions echoed through the air.
'Boom!'
When the countless tiny explosions merged together, the sky transformed into a scene of raging flames.
The onlookers around the square quickly led their disciples back.
The mere aftershocks of the battle against Heavenly Venerable expert made them feel threatened with death.
The loud explosion lasted for a full dozen or so breaths.
Yan Tianxin's face was full of smiles. Even if Lin Heng was Seventh-Grade Heavenly Venerable, he would never be able to get away unscathed after consuming her Heaven-Reaching Fireflies.
Soon, the flames dissipated, and as the sky cleared again, only the curtain of water continued to flow slowly.
Yan Tianxin widened!
He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
His own Heaven-Reaching Fireflies couldn't harm Lin Heng, and it couldn't even break through the water shield he created.
" Yan Tianxin, is this all the strength you've got?"
Lin Heng's indifferent voice came from inside the water cover.
The water that was flowing in mid-air quickly converged towards the center.
A moment later, when the water flowed back onto Lin Heng, Lin Heng, who was suspended in mid-air, suddenly opened his eyes.
" Water Venerable's Wrath!"
Lin Heng let out a loud shout, and water gushed out of his body again.
In an instant, the water flow formed a giant made of solidified water behind Lin Heng.
As soon as the water giant appeared, he clasped his hands together, and a terrifying aura immediately spread out.
The next second!
Lin Heng raised his right hand and slammed it forward with a palm strike.
The water giant behind him also stretched out his right hand and slapped forward.
A giant water column, ten meters thick, shot out from the water giant's hand, heading straight for Yan Tianxin.
The water column was extremely fast, arriving in front of Yan Tianxin almost at the same time it was launched from the water giant's hand.
"Not good!"
Yan Tianxin's expression changed drastically. In his haste, he could only manage to swing the Crimson Silk Sword in front of him, creating a circle of flames in an attempt to defend himself.
However, the water jet extinguished the flames in an instant upon contact with the circle of fire.
The water jet continued to surge forward, slamming violently into Yan Tianxin's front.
The moment the violent impact struck Yan Tianxin, he felt as if every bone in his body was about to shatter.
Yan Tianxin frantically circulated his Power of Origin, but every time flames erupted from the Crimson Silk Sword in his hand, they were immediately extinguished by the Origin of Water in the water column.
Water overcomes fire, and even the Power of Origin are no exception.
This is precisely why Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao deliberately reminded Lin Heng earlier.
After using the Crimson Silk Sword to withstand the water column for three breaths, Yan Tianxin finally couldn't hold on any longer. The Crimson Silk Sword was knocked away by the impact of the water column, and he himself was directly blasted to the ground by the water column, creating a deep crater in the square.
The giant water column only dissipated after Yan Tianxin was blasted into the ground.
Lin Heng glanced at the deep pit in the square and shook his head.
"This guy is much weaker than I thought, isn't he?"
Lin Heng's Water Venerable's Wrath that even with just a starting move, he had rendered Yan Tianxin completely powerless to resist.
While the Power of Origin may play a role in this, the difference in strength between the two sides is equally obvious.
Lin Heng's words were originally just casual remarks, and he only said them softly.
But for those present today, even from a distance of ten thousand meters, they could hear it clearly.
The statement that it was much weaker than expected left everyone completely bewildered.
Yan Tianxin, Fifth-Grade Heavenly Venerable Realm, wields the Crimson Silk Sword, Eighth-Grade Heavenly Venerable Origin Treasure, yet Lin Heng describes him as weak?
Miao Jingkong and Lin Xiao exchanged a glance and secretly communicated through telepathy.
"Our master always seems to surprise us. Can you guess just how powerful he is now?"
"Even Yan Tianxin Fifth-Grade Heavenly Venerable Realm, couldn't withstand a single move from Master. I believe Master's strength far surpasses that of an ordinary Seventh-Grade Heavenly Venerable; he might even be able to fight against an Eighth-Grade Heavenly Venerable or Ninth-Grade Heavenly Venerable."
