第一千八百九十二章 大战老魔

Is it you?

Toxin Dragon Ancestor was taken aback. His expression became extremely strange, with a sinister and cruel look on his face: "Boy Lin, did you actually dare to stand here? Didn't you just want to brazenly attack me earlier?"

"Indeed."

Lin Xuan smiled as he spoke. With the situation as it is, denying it would be meaningless: "I did indeed think about that just now. Unfortunately, I'm not so lucky this time, and there's no chance for me."

"Hmph. Even if you succeeded in ambushing me, what could you do? Just a lowly Separation Realm cultivator like you trying to trouble an old man—what a joke," Toxin Dragon Ancestor said coldly.

He indeed had the right to say that.

The gap between great realms couldn't be easily bridged. While it might be possible for someone to challenge across levels, most people saw it as just a distant legend.

Toxin Dragon Ancestor hadn't even considered such a possibility.

In his rage and shock, he shook his body, and a dark aura began to seep out from his surface. His complexion grew paler. He extended his remaining right hand, curling his index finger and thumb together before pointing them forward.

"Pop."

A light sound echoed in the air as the dark aura started swirling, forming a black vortex that seemed bottomless. A monstrous demon snake appeared within it.

The demon snake was over ten feet long with three heads, wings on its back, and an intimidating presence that rivaled even a dragon's.

This wasn't just some ordinary secret technique!

But Lin Xuan showed no fear.

Even at his peak, he could handle Toxin Dragon Ancestor. Now that the old man was half crippled, what tricks could he possibly pull?

However, despite this thought, a silver light flashed in the depths of Lin Xuan's eyes. Even an eagle hunting a rabbit still had to use all its strength; after all, his opponent was a Core Profound Realm cultivator. He shouldn't underestimate him.

But as he swept his gaze across it, Lin Xuan's expression became strange.

A tiny figure hovered in the center of the demon snake's head, about an inch tall.

Its features were identical to Toxin Dragon Ancestor's, but composed of a light projection, clearly not an infant spirit but an essence spirit.

This wasn't some secret technique; it was his essence spirit manifestation.

What a cunning old man. If not for his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye with its ability to see through illusions, he would have been almost fooled by this trick.

Even if he lost, it wouldn't be too bad. But he would definitely suffer.

Lin Xuan's face turned dark as night. He was cunning, but so was the old monster.

A hint of gloom flashed across his face as Lin Xuan reached out again and swept his hand over his waist, revealing a bag in his palm.

Without hesitation, Lin Xuan raised his hand to summon this treasure, casting a spell at it.

Wu...

A buzzing sound filled the air as the bag opened, releasing milky white corpse aura that soon permeated several miles around. A tall and thin monster could be vaguely heard growling from within.

Could it be...? Toxin Dragon Ancestor's eyes widened in shock, full of confusion. This little guy must have mastered some demon arts and practiced both good and evil. How did he resolve the conflict between them?

There was no time for him to ponder this as the corpse aura was quickly absorbed by the monster within. A terrifying zombie appeared before their eyes.

Its face was withered, long purple hair fluttering in the wind, fangs exposed at its corners, and fingernails a full half-foot long, resembling sharp blades.

"Roar..."

The zombie raised its head, emitting an awe-inspiring roar that shook the heavens. Accompanying it was a磅礴 spiritual pressurethat descended from above. Toxin Dragon Ancestor's eyes widened in shock as he couldn't help but exclaim: "Impossible. You're only at Separation Realm. How can this zombie be Core Profound?"

"Hmm, there are still many things you don't know."

Lin Xuan coldly shouted, his body emitting a bright green aura as he charged towards Toxin Dragon Ancestor. In mid-air, a red staff appeared in his palm, and with a wave, countless staff shadows emerged, covering half the sky before crashing down on his head.

Buddhist chants filled their ears.

"Divine Staff of the Spirit Realm!"

The old monster's face was full of shock as he frantically waved his sleeves to release an oval-shaped treasure. It spun around before forming a protective light barrier around him.

However, Toxin Dragon Ancestor didn't feel any safer. He bit his tongue and spat out a mixture of essence energy and primordial blood towards the shield, which quickly dissolved.

Just as this action ended, Lin Xuan's attack arrived on schedule.

Bang!

The countless staff shadows converged at the last moment into one hundred-foot-long staff shadow that appeared before them, still carrying lightning fire. It descended heavily like a mountain, smashing down on Toxin Dragon Ancestor.

"What...?"

Toxin Dragon Ancestor was shocked but had no more tricks up his sleeve. The sound of shattering echoed as he used all his strength, but the shield couldn't hold and felt like trying to break an egg with a stone. The staff shadow crushed him into powder before continuing its descent onto the sea.

Bang!

A hundred-foot-high wave rose, far more terrifying than any storm. A nearby small island was instantly submerged, fortunately uninhabited so no one was harmed.

The shield being shattered didn't mean Toxin Dragon Ancestor had fallen. Such a powerful old monster still had formidable vitality.

His last attack was dodged, but he used some secret technique to make the situation even worse.

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as he saw a sudden surge of demon winds converging in the middle, revealing Toxin Dragon Ancestor.

A shallow stream could play with a shrimp, and a tiger on flat ground could be bullied by dogs. At this moment, Toxin Dragon Ancestor was truly at his last breath. His face wasn't just pale; it was almost like death itself. Not only had he lost much of his energy, but that attack also triggered injuries from days ago, causing his body to collapse.

This wasn't the worst part!

What alarmed him most was how strong the enemy was, far exceeding his initial expectations.

There was a Core Profound Realm corpse in his possession, and its strength wasn't just at Separation Realm. That last strike had more power than an ordinary Core Profound Realm old monster.

"Are you really Lin Xuan?"

Toxin Dragon Ancestor even doubted his judgment now.

"I'll leave that to you."

Lin Xuan's body emitted a green glow as he stepped forward, vanishing without a trace. The old monster saw this and immediately raised his right hand, releasing dozens of lightning orbs from his sleeves. They spun around but didn't explode, instead forming an array to protect him.

"What is this?"

Spatial fluctuations occurred as Lin Xuan appeared beside the old man in shock. Could those lightning orbs be used like that?

Then, something even more astonishing happened.

Puff... Puff...

The lightning orbs shot back and entered his body. Toxin Dragon Ancestor's aura began to surge wildly.

"Is this some secret technique?"

Lin Xuan didn't believe a few dozen lightning orbs could save him. This method must be some demonic art that would only make things worse in the long run.

"I don't care if you're that Lin boy or not. You've humiliated an old man so much, I might as well sacrifice this body and find another one to possess when I return..."

Although his words weren't clear, they confirmed his suspicions.

Lin Xuan wasn't alarmed; the old man's plan was good, but would he fight him?

Dream on!

Without hesitation, Lin Xuan waved his right hand again, releasing countless staff shadows once more. He repeated his previous tactic, smashing down on Toxin Dragon Ancestor's head.

How can you dodge that?

Toxin Dragon Ancestor didn't move or raise any defensive treasures. Instead, a torn-off talisman appeared in his palm.

This talisman was golden-yellow with about a third of it missing. Lin Xuan immediately recognized the difference—it felt inexplicably different.

A small bell was drawn on this talisman.

Talisman treasure!!
