Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 663 - 663 661 The Night of the Killing

663: Chapter 661: The Night of the Killing 663: Chapter 661: The Night of the Killing “It seems the two of them clashed to find an opportunity for breakthrough, but it’s unclear who won.

If that person comes out on top, it’s very likely they’ll condense a true Martial Soul!”

People discussed, their expressions filled with shock.

The venerables, however, were silent, eventually letting out a sigh.

With their Soul Power, they had already sensed the residual aura and guessed the identity of the person involved.

The venerables remained silent because they had guessed the identity of that person.

Especially the Venerable from the Blackwood Castle, his face turned terrifyingly dark.

Even in their hearts, they were unwilling to accept this reality.

Yet, the lingering aura of the Sword Soul teased them, confirming their speculation was not wrong.

That Venerable withdrew his Soul Power and called together the clan’s elders to discuss countermeasures.

“Damn it, how could it be that little thief!”

Everyone’s face turned ugly, unable to accept the truth, especially Heimu Ya who, upon hearing this news, trembled, his vision darkening, nearly fainting from anger.

“No, we cannot let this little thief live, I must have him dead!”

Heimu Ya said through gritted teeth, unable to imagine that his opponent was so terrifying, reaching such heights.

Originally, he planned to take revenge personally, but now, if the opponent truly condenses a Martial Soul, then he would stand no chance.

Not just him, this was an outcome no one in the Blackwood Castle wanted to see.

“No, we must eliminate him!

And we must do it tonight!”

The Blackwood Castle Patriarch declared gravely, this time he planned to dispatch a Venerable for the task.

And it wasn’t just the Blackwood Castle that held this thought.

Shen Yaotian was equally enraged, his face twisted in fury.

He had sent personal guards in an assassination attempt against Lin Xuan, only for it to fail unexpectedly.

And now, the opponent might even make a breakthrough.

As a genius of the King Family, he would not allow such a thing to happen.

So, he immediately dispatched a personal Venerable to ensure Lin Xuan would be slain.

In an instant, two prominent Venerables moved secretly and swiftly towards Lin Xuan’s courtyard.

…

Lin Xuan returned from the ancient residence and immediately entered his courtyard, instructing the Dark Red Divine Dragon to cast a Defense Array.

Seeing Lin Xuan covered in wounds, the Dark Red Dragon’s eyelids twitched madly.

“Kid, just how many people did you fight with to end up in such a sorry state?”

“Not many, just three Heavenly Prides.”

“What?

Three Heavenly Prides!”

“Three Heavenly Prides in two days’ time, you really are crazy!” exclaimed the Dark Red Divine Dragon.

It was well aware of the strength of those Heavenly Prides; none were weaker than Lin Xuan.

To engage in three life-or-death battles in such a short period—it seemed only a madman like Lin Xuan could pull it off.

Moreover, what shocked it even more was the extremely powerful Martial Soul energy it felt inside Lin Xuan.

“About to breakthrough, huh?

It seems to be happening much sooner than I expected.”

The Dark Red Divine Dragon was once again astonished.

Originally, it estimated that Lin Xuan would need over ten days for the breakthrough, but to its surprise, just two to three days was enough to get him to this stage.

Such speed was unprecedented in the history of cultivation!

At this moment, the power within Lin Xuan’s body grew increasingly fierce.

The terrifying strength seemed as if it would burst him apart.

He had to begin closed-door cultivation immediately, condensing his own Sword Soul; otherwise, if he missed this chance, it would be very difficult to come by such an opportunity again.

“Rascal Dragon, whatever happens tonight, you must block it, no one can be allowed in!” Lin Xuan instructed.

“If you can withstand tonight, all of the Primordial Yang Stones will be yours in the future!”

“Rest assured, leave it to this emperor!” The Dark Red Dragon cried out in excitement, upon hearing ‘Primordial Yang Stones.’

Afterward, Lin Xuan released the Snow White Monkey as well, letting it work together with the Dark Red Divine Dragon to act as Guardians.

He then sat cross-legged under the Ancient Tree, his hands forming seals, and quickly entered a state of Cultivation.

On a night with a dark moon and howling wind, it was the perfect time for murder.

An elder from the Blackwood Castle, Scar Venerable, was the first to arrive above Lin Xuan’s courtyard.

Following that, he snorted coldly and swiftly pressed down towards the area below.

The Void vibrated, and the air circulated rapidly, forming a huge palm that bombed towards the courtyard below with great speed.

Bang!

The gigantic palm, when still a hundred meters from the ground, was obstructed and emitted a deep sound.

“Hm?

There’s an Array!”

The Blackwood Castle elder was momentarily stunned.

This time, the elder who took action was a middle-aged man with a scar across his face, which made him look exceptionally ferocious and terrifying.

At this moment, the Scarred Man frowned slightly, realizing that the Array that could block his strike was certainly not ordinary.

It seemed that the other party had fully prepared in advance.

“Just a mere Array, and it really wants to stop a Venerable?

How ridiculous!”

Scar Venerable scoffed in disdain.

He didn’t want to get tangled up and decided to make a full effort, aiming for a quick and decisive battle.

After all, if an elder like him assassinated a young man with limitless potential, it would definitely cause a huge impact, and at the very least, the War God Palace would not let them off.

So, he didn’t attack again but instead, his body burst into light, diving towards the area below like a meteor.

Inside the courtyard, the Dark Red Divine Dragon looked serious.

It gazed outside while whirls its Dragon Claw, constantly manipulating the Array.

“Damn it, they actually sent out a Venerable!

This Blackwood Family really has no shame!”

The Dark Red Divine Dragon stomped in anger.

If its Cultivation was still present, it would definitely have slapped them all to death with one swipe!

Crack crack crack!

While it was infuriated, the Void above suddenly emitted crisp cracking sounds, showing countless rifts as if it was a shattered mirror.

“Damn, they’re attacking again!”

The Dark Red Divine Dragon cursed under its breath, rapidly operating the Array to neutralize this terrifying force.

However, it had underestimated the determination of the Blackwood Castle elder, and since it lost its Dragon Origin, it could only exert part of the Array’s power.

At the moment, it could only passively defend and hold out for a while.

Wu ji wu ji

The Snow White Monkey watched anxiously on the side, its figure flickering, ready to rush out.

“Little Ancestor, you must not go out!”

The Dark Red Divine Dragon, quick to respond, grabbed the Snow White Monkey, and then kept comforting it.

If the Snow White Monkey went out and got caught, Lin Xuan would definitely fight to the death with it upon awakening.

“Rest assured, my Array won’t be so easily defeated; it can at least hold for two hours!”

The Dark Red Divine Dragon clenched its teeth and said, “If it really comes down to it, I will risk losing some of my Origin to protect the Defense Array!”

Outside, the Blackwood Castle elder, having attacked twice without success, was extraordinarily furious.

A mere Array had blocked his steps; if this were to spread, it would surely become everyone’s laughingstock.

Thinking of this, his eyes showed a hint of ruthless coldness, and then he unexpectedly unleashed his Martial Soul, making a terrifying strike.

Crack crack crack!

The entire Great Formation violently shook, as though it could collapse at any moment.

The eyes of the Dark Red Divine Dragon turned blood-red, frantic like a rabbit.

“Damn it, daring to use a Martial Soul, do they really think I am so easy to bully!”

He cursed through gritted teeth, and then spat out a drop of Dragon Blood that entered the Array above.

Instantly, the Defense Array trembled and shone with a bright red light; the previously faltering Defense Array was once again firm and solid.
