Chapter 331: Chapter 263: Whirlwind (46)

Mirror World.

Amidst the mist, verdant mountains stretched all the way to the horizon.

Majestic buildings were scattered among the mountains, shining with golden light under the sun’s rays, exuding a sacred aura.

At this moment, as the melodious sound of bells echoed through the valley, Master Tianlian stood atop a high tower at Shi Lin Temple, looking at the mountain scenery before him and smiling slightly, "It’s been a long time since I last visited Tianming City, yet it seems even more prosperous than before."

An elder by his side spoke, "If it wasn’t for your guidance back then, Master, our sect wouldn’t have overcome our decline so quickly."

"Today, we’ve asked you here again to inquire if there’s any way to stabilize the land prices..."

Just then, Master Tianlian’s expression changed abruptly, turning his gaze to the Buddha Beads on his wrist.

One of the beads had suddenly turned blood-red, as if it had been soaked in fresh blood for a long time.

"How did it suddenly break the seal? It was fine yesterday," Master Tianlian thought with a start, "The situation in the present world shouldn’t have reached this point. Who could be making a move in secret?"

But just as he was thinking this, he saw the blood-soaked bead making a crisp cracking sound, already covered in cracks, as though it would shatter completely in the next moment.

Realizing this, Master Tianlian’s face turned pale, "It will no longer be concealed at this rate, it’s going to completely lose control..."

The elder beside him spoke, "Master Tianlian?"

"The situation is urgent, I need to return to the present world," Master Tianlian stepped forward and instantly disappeared from the elder’s sight.

...

Meanwhile, in the conference room of White Eagle Country.

Countless high-level officials of White Eagle Country were watching the images from the battlefield in shock—Lin Xing and a girl in black were locked in a fierce battle atop a pile of ruins.

Seeing the girl in black being continuously suppressed, a blond elder exclaimed in disbelief, "Why has Lin Xing’s combat power suddenly leaped so dramatically?"

Great Bright Buddha pondered and said, "Lin Xing is gradually accepting his true self, embracing the memories of his past."

He thought to himself, "It seems my current reincarnated state is in an even worse condition than at She Shen Cliff, and soon I might revert back to being the great evil of my past life."

He frowned slightly, "If that’s the case, then the original plan is useless."

"What do you mean?" The Divine Dragon Gang Leader, watching Lin Xing’s battle, asked impatiently, "What exactly are you hiding? What’s so special about this Lin Xing?"

Gu She Fairy, with a complex expression while watching the battle on the screen, suddenly said, "She’s trying to escape, are we just going to watch?"

The Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect said, "The current Lin Xing will attack indiscriminately, regardless of country, race, or alliance. There isn’t a single person in the world he wouldn’t kill."

"Let’s wait until he exhausts the power of that wisp of celestial energy in his body."

...

On the battlefield.

A black shadow was flitting rapidly over the ruins, escaping the battlefield at lightning speed, like a spark flying through space, as swift as the wind.

As the shadow retreated, trails of blood-red light pierced through the air, relentlessly pursuing the figure in a sweeping motion across the ground.

Wherever the blood lights passed, large swaths of steel and concrete were continuously shattered, and the remnants of skyscrapers were bisected by the columns of light, collapsing with a roar.

"With the enhancement of celestial energy, his range and freedom in Artifact Refining are too great."

"Combined with the perfect skill that took who knows how many years to hone..."

"Engaging him head-on before his celestial energy is depleted would be unwise."

Meanwhile, swirls of evil aura in the sky seemed to be moving gradually, converging towards a certain spot.

"Time is on my side."

The girl in black, her arm dripping with blood as if mauled by a wild beast, moved at high speed, quickly bursting out of the range that had just been bombarded by missiles, and arrived at a residential street.

At that moment, the sky above the entire street in front of her filled with dense arrays of runes.

The expression on the black-clad girl’s face changed again as surging Sword Intent burst forth from within her.

Her figure was like lightning streaking through a dragon’s undulating path, forcefully changing direction. As the ground beneath her feet emitted a thunderous boom, she created a large crater. She instantly pivoted 90 degrees and shot off in another direction.

Almost at the same moment she turned, the airflow above the street reflected a metallic sheen, as if a mountain was pressing down, crushing all the buildings and cars on the street to smithereens.

"It’s a good thing that refining the atmosphere is much more difficult than ordinary objects. Even he couldn’t complete it in an instant."

"As long as one is prepared for the runes suddenly appearing in the air..."

As the black-clad girl was speeding forward, the road beneath her came to life like a giant dragon, rising and coiling towards her.

Her black sword energy flashed fiercely, slicing through the road, which writhed like a dragon. With a tap of her toes, she leaped onto the wall of an adjacent building.

But as she bounded between buildings, she quickly found that each tower seemed to come to life as well, morphing and crashing towards her.

No sooner had she sliced through the building in her path, than beams of blood-red light shot towards her.

The black sword energy immediately retracted and struck the blood-red lights, not slicing them as before, but instead repelling them like cannon shots.

As the black-clad woman continued to flee, the high-speed chase and battle turned street after street in New Ke City into new ruins.

Countless evil spirits and surviving humans were obliterated into clouds of blood mist as a result of their clashes.

On the major internet live-streaming platforms, it had become very difficult to find a live broadcast of their confrontation.

Only to see one after another of the survivors in the livestreams losing connection.

"No problem."

She dodged Lin Xing’s pursuit time and time again.

"As long as I’m accustomed to his way of attacking..."

Constantly shifting the battlefield, summoning evil spirits to block the attacks for her.

"His immortal energy will soon be depleted, and Heavenly Evil ritual is also nearing its final stage."

The sword energy around the black-clad girl flickered violently, and the roiling dark clouds in the sky churned in response.

"When his immortal energy is exhausted..."

As the black-clad girl was thinking this, Lin Xing’s voice, accompanied by a shockwave of air, resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

"You must be thinking, once my immortal energy is spent, you will be able to suppress me again."

The black-clad girl’s eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the distant figure standing in midair.

She thought to herself, "Is that the real body? Or just a decoy to draw my attention?"

At the same time, the figure in the sky continued to speak, "Do you know Artifact Refining?"

"Not really."

"But I’ve given it some thought. Real Artifact Refining shouldn’t be those mundane things I did before. Too boring, too mediocre."

"I suppose real Artifact Refining should involve capturing the light of the sun and the moon."

As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand towards the sky and grabbed it. With runes swarming the sky, countless beams of light began converging in the palm of his hand.

The entire sky behind him seemed to distort within the black-clad girl’s field of vision.

"Converging the essence of heaven and earth."

With a fierce grab of his left hand, vast amounts of evil energy also gathered towards him.

"Hahaha, how do you think I’ve mastered the path of Artifact Refining?"
