Yan Zhanfeng controlled a giant fire tornado that swept towards Lin Heng.
Flames soared into the sky, and tornadoes surged, their power unmatched for a time. The fiery tornadoes, seemingly intent on burning everything to ashes, were filled with an aura of destruction.
Lin Heng swung the Eight-Origin Heaven-Piercing Spear, its tip pointing directly at the fiery tornado.
" Water Venerable's Wrath!"
The water god statue opened its huge mouth in fury, and a water column as thick as twenty meters shot out from its mouth, instantly slamming into the fire tornado in front of it.
Water and fire clashed, and the fiery tornado was firmly blocked!
The flames were constantly extinguished by the impact of the water jets, and billowing water mist rose into the sky, filling the air and giving people a dreamlike feeling.
The collision of water and fire gradually extinguished the fire tornado completely, but the remaining water column was less than three meters thick and was easily defeated by Yan Zhanfeng with a wave of his hand.
"Interesting. I underestimated you."
Yan Zhanfeng let out a mocking laugh. He thought he could defeat Lin Heng instantly, but he didn't expect Lin Heng to block his fiery tornado.
It's too early to say that.
Lin Heng let out a soft hum, and swung the Eight-Origin Heaven-Piercing Spear again, its movements like leaping musical notes dancing in the air, creating a visually beautiful effect.
" Heavenly Water Destroys the World!"
Just as the tip of the Eight-Origin Heaven-Piercing Spear was fixed in the direction of Yan Zhanfeng, the Water God statue behind Lin Heng clasped its hands together, and a torrent of water surged out from its palms, wave after wave rushing towards Yan Zhanfeng.
" Three Surging Flame Eruptions!"
Yan Zhanfeng clenched his right fist, raised it high above his head, and the next second, he slammed his fist down onto the ground below.
The fiery fist landed, smashing the ground and creating a deep crater of flames.
From within that deep pit, a pillar of fire shot into the sky.
The rising pillar of fire blocked the surging torrent of water, but this was only the beginning.
The pillar of fire suddenly flickered, and an even larger pillar of fire shot up from the ground.
This time, the expanded pillar of fire instantly evaporated the flowing water from the sky.
The water that was flowing continuously just a second ago evaporated completely under the burning of this second pillar of fire.
Lin Heng's expression changed slightly.
Suddenly, the fiery crater below stirred again, and an even larger pillar of fire erupted once more!
'boom!'
The explosive burst of fire caused the surrounding space to tremble, and the violent energy scattered in all directions, blasting Lin Heng, who was a hundred meters away, away.
The shock sent Lin Heng flying back several thousand meters before he could barely regain his footing.
"Wrong!"
"Besides the Origin of Fire, there were other energies just now."
"Could that aura be Primordial Spiritual Qi?"
Lin Heng noticed something was wrong.
The first pillar of fire was indeed just the Origin of Fire, but the two pillars that followed had the power to generate more fire.
Lin Heng was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that Primordial Spiritual Qi could produce derivative effects from the Power of Origin?
" Lin Heng, this is the difference between you and me."
"In the face of true power, your so-called ability to fight beyond your level is nothing but a joke."
Yan Zhanfeng the opportunity and launched a fierce taunt.
Little did Lin Heng know that Yan Zhanfeng's words had given him a wake-up call.
"Realm?"
Lin Heng chuckled self-deprecatingly. He clearly had strengths that surpassed Yan Zhanfeng's, so why did he insist on competing with him in the application of his Power of Origin?
" Yan Zhanfeng, now that you've entered the Primordial Realm, you should know what the Heavenly Dao is, right?"
Lin Heng's abrupt words made Yan Zhanfeng's smile widen even more.
"A mere Heavenly Venerable Realm dares to speak presumptuously about the Heavenly Dao before me; utterly laughable."
Yan Zhanfeng snorted dismissively.
"Yeah?"
As Lin Heng let out a cold snort, Yan Zhanfeng noticed that Lin Heng had changed somewhat.
When he looked closely, the moment Yan Zhanfeng met Lin Heng's gaze, he felt the whole world darken.
In the dark world, everything seemed so lonely.
In the pitch-black darkness, Yan Zhanfeng shouted several times, but received no response.
Suddenly, Yan Zhanfeng found it difficult to breathe, as if someone was choking him.
Yan Zhanfeng hurriedly reached out and waved his hand forward, but there was nothing in front of him.
The feeling of suffocation gradually invaded his body, and the aura of death brought terror to Yan Zhanfeng's eyes.
"No... it's impossible..."
Yan Zhanfeng stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that Lin Heng had any understanding of the Heavenly Dao.
The Dao Realm is a higher level of existence that transcends the soul and cultivation.
The deeper one's understanding of the Dao Realm, the closer one gets to the heavens.
To put it simply, within the opponent's Dao Realm, you are merely their plaything.
This is like everyone in this universe being a plaything of the Lord of the Universe.
With a single thought, the Lord of the Universe could kill any cultivator.
Unfortunately, Lin Heng's understanding of the Dao Realm is only at a preliminary stage, and he is not yet able to reach that level. He can only control the five senses of others and deceive their souls and bodies within his own Dao Realm.
This is why Yan Zhanfeng felt death within Lin Heng's Dao Realm.
Of course, if he has a weak sense of self, then he could actually die during this death experience.
Upon learning of Lin Heng's comprehension of the Dao Realm, Yan Zhanfeng panicked.
Originally, Cosmic Origin thought it would be an easy task: to go out and visit the lower realm, kill Lin Heng, and then return to his clan to gain a great merit.
But now, Yan Zhanfeng no longer cares about any merits; the only thing he wants to do is figure out how to get back alive.
Within Lin Heng's Dao Realm, Yan Zhanfeng gradually gave up struggling, his physical weakness bringing him ever closer to death.
Lin Heng sensed Yan Zhanfeng's self-imposed silence and a smile appeared on his face.
If Yan Zhanfeng gives up on survival, his soul will gradually perish.
Although it wasn't a violent execution, this kind of suicide that deceives the five senses is even more terrifying.
"That's enough, come back!"
Just as Yan Zhanfeng's eyelids were slowly closing, a voice suddenly rang out within the Heavenly Ghost Fire Spirit Array.
It is impossible to pinpoint the exact location from which the sound is emanating.
But after this sound appeared, the Heavenly Ghost Fire Spirit Array exploded, and the entire array collapsed instantly.
Along with the formation, Lin Heng's Dao Realm also collapsed, as another, even more powerful Dao Realm forcefully intervened, awakening Yan Zhanfeng from within.
This powerful Dao Realm awakened Yan Zhanfeng and pulled him out of it. Yan Zhanfeng's Cosmic Origin Energy detached from Yan Lang's body, transformed into a point of light, shot into the sky, and then disappeared.
'Boom! Boom! Boom!'
Three explosions rang in Lin Heng's ears, and the bodies of Yan Lang and the other three Ninth-Grade Heavenly Venerable experts exploded without warning.
" Lin Heng, my Fire Clan underestimated you. Next time my Fire Clan makes a move, you will surely die."
The voice that had just echoed within the array space now appeared in Lin Heng's mind alone.
'Whoosh!'
Almost simultaneously with the sound, more than a dozen powerful auras appeared in front of Lin Heng...
