Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247: Dao Sword Breaks Demons

"Yang Junmo, are you looking for death?" Lin Ran’s face contorted with fury as he looked at his bound hands and feet, his brow furrowed tightly.

At this very moment, by absorbing a complete Dao Heart Demon Seed, his realm had reached a level comparable to the late stages of the Hollow Vacuum.

These Cultivators whose strength barely reached the Nascent Soul, even if relying on the suppressive power of the Mountain River Cauldron, would find it exceedingly difficult to threaten him with their Techniques.

And Yang Junmo was merely at the Golden Core stage!

Despite having a decent foundation, the enormous gap in their realms meant that, no matter how mystical his methods, any attempt to affect Lin Ran was like betting with his own life.

However, Yang Junmo, whose Inner Breath was in chaos, showed no signs of holding back. He struggled to lift his head and look at Lin Ran, "Then I can’t just stand by and watch you stray onto the wrong path!"

"You..." Lin Ran’s expression turned complex.

He had few friends in the Capital City. Born in the Lin Family with modest talent, and overshadowed by a brother far more capable than himself, Lin Ran often went unnoticed.

By chance, he met Yang Junmo and couldn’t understand how this fellow, who shared a similar fate, could also become an influential figure in the Capital City.

Despite both being called good-for-nothing heirs, despite also having an older brother outshining him, Yang Junmo still lived a fulfilling life.

Only when with him did Lin Ran realize that one could live freely and comfortably in this world without focusing on strength or realm.

It was a rare comfort when he was at the lowest point in his life, a pity he ultimately wasn’t Yang Junmo.

He couldn’t accept his mediocrity, nor could he accept that the Lin Family, due to their status, was destined to be only above second-rate yet not quite first-rate in the Capital City.

Even less could he accept being destined to be a commoner from birth.

"Am I wrong? You’re the one who’s wrong, Yang Junmo! You have no idea about the real world, without strength or talent, you don’t even have the right to speak!"

An agitated Lin Ran roared, and the Hou Tu Stele binding him instantly developed numerous cracks.

The one manipulating the Hou Tu Stele, Yang Junmo, spat a mouthful of fresh blood in response.

"Yang Junmo, stop!"

Noticing that something was amiss, Bei Tang Qianxiao immediately spoke up. As another possessor of the Earth Core Lotus, she knew Yang Junmo had long reached his limit. At the moment, he was forcing the Hou Tu Stele to maintain its form purely through the self-healing properties of the Earth Core Lotus, a heavy burden on him. If Lin Ran were to heartlessly shatter the Hou Tu Stele, Yang Junmo would undoubtedly die!

"When I act, I don’t do it by halves. Once done, I have no regrets!"

Yang Junmo bellowed, spewing another mouthful of blood mist before forming a Spell with his hands.

The blood mist in the air, as if guided, fused into the five Hou Tu Steles. Fresh blood sealed the cracks, once again solidifying the Steles, which now carried a bizarre, blood-tinted aura due to the coagulation from Yang Junmo’s blood.

"Su Chengyu! Hurry the fuck up!"

Yang Junmo shouted.

Upon noticing Yang Junmo’s actions, Su Chengyu, who had been gathering strength, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Do you think I don’t want to be fast? Deal with the trouble you brought on yourself!"

As Su Chengyu spoke, a Golden Dragon and a Fire Phoenix appeared behind him.

He definitely couldn’t use the Wasteland Sky Halberd again in such a short time; another backlash like that, and neither Su Chengyu’s body nor his Mana could sustain it.

Though the Heavenly Qi-breaking Five Thunder Technique was powerful, it was still not quite effective enough in inflicting serious harm on Lin Ran at the moment.

Without resorting to the Dragon Slayer Sword, Su Chengyu’s most formidable move was naturally the combined strike of the True Dragon Technique and God Phoenix Treasure Technique!

Under the drive of Su Chengyu’s mana, the Golden Dragon and Fire Phoenix seemed to come to life, their intertwined tumbling and fearsome momentum drawing everyone’s gaze to Su Chengyu.

No one doubted the power of this spell from Su Chengyu; it was clear that without any preliminary movements, this technique had already reached the destructive level of the Late-stage Hollow Void.

"Dragon and Phoenix Harmonious Singing!"

With a blaze of green firelight, the True Dragon and Fire Phoenix struck Lin Ran’s body with all their might.

Lin Ran, bound by both the Mountain River Cauldron and the Hou Tu Stele, had no chance to avoid the attack. Facing the dragon and phoenix strike before him, Lin Ran, with a ferocious expression, said, "Idiots! Even with all your tricks, do you really think such abilities are enough to defeat me?"

A tremendous surge of Demonic Qi rose into the sky, piercing through Lin Family’s Residence and straight into the heavens, completely enveloping Lin Ran.

The Fire Phoenix and True Dragon Law Phase controlled by Su Chengyu melted away incessantly before this overwhelming demonic force, unable to advance any further.

Seeing this, everyone felt a jolt in their hearts. They had never imagined that their combined attack could not even penetrate Lin Ran’s Protective Gang Qi.

"Is this the gap between us and a true Late-stage Hollow Void?"

Su Pingping stared blankly at the scene that unfolded before her.

Yu Ruo, who was also somewhat fatigued from the high-strain use of the Mountain River Cauldron, softly said, "To be precise, it’s Late-stage Hollow Void."

Before absorbing the Dao Heart Demon Seed, Lin Ran’s strength might not have reached the Late-stage Hollow Void level, but after consuming all of Bei Tang Qi Meng’s flesh and blood, Lin Ran undeniably was one step away from becoming one of the strongest beings in this world.

Spurt!

A fresh bout of blood spewed out. The first to collapse under the strain was Yang Junmo, still only at the Golden Core level in terms of strength.

It was uncertain whether Yang Junmo was lucky or Lin Ran had shown some restraint towards this former friend of his. While his internal organs were in complete disarray, he still clung to life and had not lost it entirely.

Facing Lin Ran, who was unleashing sky-reaching demonic qi and resisting Su Chengyu’s strike, Yang Junmo spoke dissatisfiedly, "Su Chengyu, the opportunity I’ve exchanged with my life, you better not waste it."

"Shut up and heal up! Despite such a heavy injury, you still can’t keep your mouth shut!"

Su Chengyu, who was clearly in better condition, had somehow already reached Yang Junmo’s side. He shoved several elixirs into Yang Junmo’s mouth, not forgetting to add, "Remember to pay me back later."

"Later?" Yang Junmo smirked painfully and, observing Lin Ran who was unfazed by everyone’s attack, said, "Will there even be a ’later’ for us?"

Su Chengyu turned his head to look at Yang Junmo and said, "Don’t I deserve your trust?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Junmo, somewhat puzzled, looked toward Su Chengyu. Had he missed something in that last attack? Was there a hidden effect he hadn’t noticed?

Bang!

With a forceful swing of Lin Ran’s arm, demonic qi exploded outward, and not just Yang Junmo, but everyone near Lin Ran was repelled several steps back.

Even Yu Ruo, who had summoned three Mountain River Cauldrons, was forced to stop their operation, stepping back and bleeding from the corner of her mouth.

Lin Ran’s bloodthirsty gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Su Chengyu: "None of you will escape, you’ll all die! And you’ll be the first!"

However, faced with Lin Ran’s nearly substantial murderous intent, Su Chengyu calmly said, "Haven’t you realized? Your opponent is no longer us."

The moment the words fell, a piercing sound came from the sky.

In an instant, as if countless Taoist children were chanting, a simple and unadorned Eight Trigrams Sword descended from the heavens with the speed of lightning, aiming straight for Lin Ran’s chest.

Sensing the danger, Lin Ran instinctively dodged, yet the Eight Trigrams Sword, as if sentient, changed direction, still piercing through Lin Ran’s body!

With just one strike, Lin Ran’s body was split in two!
