第一千六百五十七章 联手与离心

Lin Xuan looked at Jin Yizhi's terrifying face, and his confusion grew. But the facts were clear: the tense situation now left him no time to think.

At this point, it was inappropriate to hide his true abilities any longer. Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve, and a simple yet ancient-looking folding fan flew out.

The fan was only about a foot long, with a shimmering aura that clearly wasn't an ordinary object. He poured all of his magical power into the Waterfall Fan.

With a snap, the fan suddenly opened. The surface glimmered with a mystical light, depicting a landscape painting in ink and vermilion.

A green mountain stood out prominently on the fan's face. Although Lin Xuan was inside a pavilion, he couldn't use grand spells here, but its size still towered over everything, exuding an overwhelming pressure.

"Om! " A grand Buddhist chant echoed through the air. With this situation, even Lin Xuan felt compelled to reveal his true strength; how much more so for the others?

An old monk's expression was solemn and dignified as seven-colored light flared around him. He clasped his hands and continuously cast spells towards a golden bowl in front of him.

The light radiated from this treasure, with immense Buddhist power swirling within it. Suddenly, an astonishing spiritual pressure surged skyward, and seventy-two beams of light shot out from the golden bowl, merging with the colorful light behind the monk.

A greenish-golden figure appeared before their eyes.

A Dharmic manifestation!

Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. Compared to the mortal world, the spirit realm's cultivation techniques were much more profound. While Dharmic manifestations were rare, many powerful beings in Buddhist sects cultivated them.

This wasn't unusual; it was said that the Dharmic manifestations of Buddhist sects were incredibly mysterious and powerful.

The figure stood over three meters tall, appearing extremely robust with wide-open eyes, resembling a guardian statue in a Buddhist temple to an extreme degree. With a loud shout, two massive fists pounded towards the gray shield.

This blow must have had millions of pounds of force; even if a mountain blocked it, it would easily create a hole.

Mingquan Fairy's delicate hand flicked, and the thin veil reappeared. However, this time, instead of transforming into a python, a lion appeared in its place within the circle of light.

The figure was still somewhat blurry but opened its mouth without hesitation, roaring as it shot out a beam of light over a meter wide.

The surface of the beam pulsed with talisman inscriptions. After this attack, her porcelain-like face turned noticeably paler, indicating that she had expended significant energy.

Fianmu Yilan's playful and casual expression was nowhere to be seen; a hint of struggle flashed in her eyes before she extended her hand and a talisman appeared before her.

This talisman shimmered with silver light, depicting a small red sword. Although it was drawn, the sword seemed incredibly lifelike.

Lin Xuan's peripheral vision caught this. Isn't that a talisman treasure?

Strange!

Talismans were typically used by low-ranking cultivators, but this one was clearly different. Could it be...

Before his thoughts could fully form, Fianmu Yilan opened her mouth and exhaled a refined essence. The talisman immediately ignited on its own, then glowed as a three-foot-long immortal sword materialized before her.

It wasn't an实体, but凝聚 by magical power, yet it was incredibly solid.

The terrifying spiritual pressure left everyone speechless; this treasure must have come from someone at the Daoist Profound Stage. If his assumptions were correct, only those at that stage could create such a powerful talisman.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan made his judgment: Fianmu Yilan was indeed not simple.

But there wasn't time to think about it now; all sorts of distractions flashed through his mind as the attacks from the four of them surged towards the gray shield without hesitation.

Unlike before, even if they didn't use their most powerful techniques, this attack was undoubtedly unrestrained. Even a cultivator at the Daoist Profound Stage wouldn't want to face such force head-on.

Boom!

The spiritual light flashed wildly as the blast's energy soared into the sky. The resulting shockwave engulfed everything around them.

The power of the gale-force winds left everyone speechless, completely submerging the gray shield.

Impressive attacks, but Lin Xuan's expression grew increasingly grim. The others were in a similar state; the shield hadn't been broken yet.

"Impossible! What is this shield? A Daoist Profound Stage powerhouse might struggle to withstand that blow, why... " Mingquan Fairy's alarmed voice echoed, her face filled with disbelief.

"Indeed, this matter is too strange. Gentlemen, let's think of a solution quickly; otherwise..."

The old monk's expression was no longer calm; it had reached the critical moment for life and death. The opponent's aura continued to grow, nearly breaking through the separation stage to Daoist Profound Stage.

If left unchecked, the consequences would be unbearable.

Clearly, this shield had nothing to do with Jin Yizhi; it likely originated from the place where the spirit essence was generated.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan moved swiftly towards the staircase. The key now wasn't to determine if Jin Yizhi could break through his bottleneck; leaving quickly was the priority.

As he left, Lin Xuan didn't forget about the treasures. He flicked his sleeve and a beam of light flew out, wrapping around the altar table and dragging it along with him.

"Sir Lin, what are you doing?"

The old monk's angry voice echoed as they hadn't had time to inspect the shrine for other treasures yet; they naturally didn't want Lin Xuan taking them away.

With a loud shout, he extended his hand in front of him. A light hand appeared and grabbed fiercely.

However, Lin Xuan anticipated their reactions. The treasure-hunting team was already falling apart; even if there had been some past relationships, it was now just a distant memory.

Though they wouldn't tear each other's faces off, there was no need to be polite. Lin Xuan flicked his fingers and the Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire appeared from his fingertips.

It collided with the light hand.

Silent and unseen!

The light hand froze in mid-air before dissipating into thin air.

The Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire continued its counterattack, causing Jin Hong Chan Shi to panic. He retreated as if bitten by a venomous snake.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Xuan reached the corner of the staircase. But with a flash of light, Mingquan Fairy suddenly appeared before him.

"Leave first and take the treasures later."

Her expression was dark; not only had Jin Yizhi taken away her medicine pills, but Lin Xuan had also snatched other items.
