Chapter 367: Chapter 298 Corruption

Under the sea.

Xingxiao erupted in anger, releasing surges of Gang Qi as his three arms, sparkling with intense starlight, simultaneously struck different Taoist Formulas.

An unpredictable intent descended into the ocean, transforming the water into dragons that coiled towards Lin Xing.

But behind Lin Xing, blood light poured forth like swords shimmering in red halos, slashing at the water dragons.

As the blood light and water dragons intertwined, Lin Xing’s Pure Yang Primordial Spirit had once again collided with Xingxiao.

"I am the destined one!" Xingxiao roared, "Lin Xing! Now that you have turned away your own and faced the world as an enemy!"

"Why do you never understand! Only by handing your powers over to me can this world keep moving forward!"

With Xingxiao’s roars, waves of inscrutable wills entered his body again, making the starlight surrounding him more turbulent and violent.

"Reverse the Sea! To the sea!"

Then, talismans flickered behind Xingxiao, and like understanding his call, the entire ocean moved with fearful intent, displacing Lin Xing’s Primordial Spirit out.

Holding tightly in Lin Xing’s hand, Bai Yiyi watched this scene and thought privately, "Has his power grown stronger? Is it because Xingxiao’s actions now align more with the way of the Heavenly Master?"

But just as Xingxiao had managed to displace Lin Xing’s Pure Yang Primordial Spirit and was about to launch another attack,

A mountainous vast shadow had already enveloped them from above.

Xingxiao suddenly looked up and saw a battleship, enlarged to who knows how many tens of thousands of tons, transformed into a towering humanoid figure, smashing down like Mount Tai.

The gigantic palm thudded as it tore through the water, shattered the Gang Qi, and gripped Xingxiao’s body, slamming him fiercely onto the seabed.

Roar!

Xingxiao shouted angrily, the surging waves barely helping him break free a bit before another gigantic hand of the battleship pressed down again with a thud, smashing the rock layers and burying Xingxiao deeper underground.

Inside the battleship, the missiles, like the Gang Qi within the ship’s body, followed Lin Xing’s guidance, moving through the battleship’s hull to its arms, elbows, and hands, finally blasting violently onto Xingxiao.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

One explosion after another burst continuously on Xingxiao’s body.

Then Lin Xing reached out, and a blinding blood light surged over, following the disrupted Gang Qi and shattered flesh, trying to penetrate Xingxiao’s body.

Xingxiao stared fiercely at Lin Xing: "Even if you defeat me! You are now against the world and can no longer survive the apocalypse!"

"With your crazed state, you are not capable of withstanding the time-reversing abilities."

"I’ll be waiting for you in the next life... Hahaha!"

...

Several hours later.

The sea surface had once again returned to calm.

The remaining ships and soldiers of the battleship fleet were now aimlessly stationed on the ocean surface, unsure of their next move.

"Lin Xing was already powerful, but using modern weapons, his strength has become even more terrifying."

"It’s all because those above went mad and involved us..."

Just then, the sea surface suddenly began churning violently.

A massive shadow surged from beneath the sea,

Bursting vast swathes of water open.

Like a colossal mountain of metal, it emerged from the sea, instantly towering over the ocean, blocking out the sun.

And behind that metallic giant, giant bloodwaves like rings of halos surrounded the giant’s back, shining like a red sun in all directions.

Seeing the battleship and soldiers transformed like this, the remaining soldiers of White Eagle Country showed faces filled with terror.

When they spotted Lin Xing standing atop the giant’s head, their shock intensified immensely.

At that moment, a strange serpent-like creature coiled around Lin Xing, a black sword hanging high above his head.

In his right hand, he held a person, and when everyone saw who it was, their hearts violently shook.

"Xingxiao lost?"

As the soldiers of White Eagle Country frantically reported the intelligence, waiting for further instructions.

At this moment, Xingxiao looked remarkably different from his original appearance.

Although his head and facial features appeared identical to the past,

his limbs and body seemed to have shrunk, possibly less than half of their original size, making him resemble a chibi character from an animated show.

The dignified aura he once possessed was completely gone, and he even seemed somewhat comical and ridiculous.

At the same time, Lin Xing had used the video communication devices surrounding him to transmit the live scene to Jing Shiyu.

Jing Shiyu had been slightly worried because communication had been disconnected for a long time due to both parties diving into the sea.

Now seeing Lin Xing holding a blood-stained Xingxiao in his hand, she slightly relaxed and said, "I have received the video here; I will release the news right now."

But thinking about the conflict that erupted between Lin Xing and White Eagle Country, she felt a slight headache.

Meanwhile, Xingxiao, held in Lin Xing’s hand, looked at Lin Xing with a face full of mockery, "There are still two months left, and everything in this life will end. What’s the point of you sorting out this mess now? Besides, you can’t fix it."

Lin Xing didn’t speak but simply snapped his fingers, and immediately, Xingxiao’s mouth fused shut as if it had never existed.

Then, Lin Xing ignored the whimpering Xingxiao and turned his gaze toward White Eagle Country.

Lin Xing said, "Xingxiao, your ability to command White Eagle Country shows you must have taken control of many of its top ranks. Did you turn them into members of the Taiching Sect?"

Soon after, Lin Xing grabbed the black sword transformed by Bai Yiyi, and just as the sword started to tremble slightly, about to revert to its original form, Bai Yiyi quickly said, "Wait, Lin Xing."

"There are too many people here."

"Let’s go somewhere secluded before you turn me back."

...

Since Xingxiao and Lin Xing left the coastal city,

information about their fierce battle became increasingly scarce.

People could only discern their approximate locations and directions from the storms induced by their battle.

However, it was soon discovered that the White Eagle Country’s fleet had unexpectedly encountered the battling duo.

As more and more people learned of this, speculation swirled about what this meant and what might happen next.

Suddenly, a piece of news swept across the world like a hurricane.

...

Inside a stronghold in Xia Country,

The Spirit Treasure Sect’s Gu She Fairy had arrived with the Divine Dragon Gang Leader and Taihe Sect’s Yun Hezi.

During Lin Xing’s fierce battle with Xingxiao, the two restrained powerhouses had also awakened one after another.

Once awake, they naturally struggled and fought, attempting to break free from supervision and regain their freedom.

However, both had already received serious injuries from the battle with Lin Xing, and their physical structures had been significantly altered by him, greatly reducing their combat abilities. Together, they still couldn’t break free from Gu She Fairy’s suppression.

The Divine Dragon Gang Leader burst out, "You treacherous woman, how could you betray us?"

Gu She Fairy scoffed, "I only agreed to help Xingxiao create decoys and suppress the commoners; I never said I would help you directly."

"Blame yourselves for your incompetence. So many of you couldn’t defeat Lin Xing and lost so miserably; you are truly worthless."

The Divine Dragon Gang Leader coldly said, "Don’t be too smug yet. The battle between Lin Xing and Xingxiao is still undecided. Lin Xing exhausted all his celestial energy fighting us; he might soon lose to Xingxiao."

At the strong insistence of the Divine Dragon Gang Leader and Yun Hezi, and with Gu She Fairy’s tacit approval, Xia Country quickly arranged for them to see various information about the battle between Xingxiao and Lin Xing.

Watching the two fight intensely for over two days, crossing tens of thousands of kilometers and triggering countless natural disasters, the three powerhouses fell silent a they witnessed it all.

Finally, upon receiving the news that Lin Xing had defeated Xingxiao, none of them showed any surprise.

At this point, regardless of whether Lin Xing or Xingxiao won, it was not difficult for the trio to understand.

But the next piece of news clearly made them realize that things were not over yet.

According to various sources, Lin Xing was suspected of controlling a metal giant transformed from an aircraft carrier, advancing relentlessly toward White Eagle Country.

"The upper echelons of White Eagle Country have already been corrupted by Xingxiao and Taiching."

"My forthcoming journey of justice will not involve killing any soldiers or civilians of White Eagle Country but will aim to free the entire nation from this corruption."
