第两千三百五十一章 请君入瓮

Boom!

In the next moment, a burst of sound entered his ears as gale-force winds shot out in all directions. The entire earth... no, the whole space began to shake. Air currents and visible shockwaves radiated outward, obliterating anything that stood in their path.

However, Lin Xuan was not concerned with the outcome. After launching a single move, he turned his head gracefully.

The process was swift and decisive. The female demon had no time to react as she focused on controlling the Deva Blade to sever the sword threads缠绕着她的剑丝。After all, this was her most powerful treasure, one she couldn’t afford to abandon.

Seeing Lin Xuan turn his head, the female demon’s expression turned serious. She watched the distant explosion with concern for Wen Da while also feeling extreme caution towards Lin Xuan's abilities.

This really was a blind eye. Initially, he seemed like an insignificant newcomer who had just ascended and hadn't yet stabilized in his cultivation realm. Even if he did have some tricks up his sleeve, how formidable could he be? His couple would easily capture him... but now, it turned out that he couldn’t be reasoned with.

There was no use regretting it now. With both parties having broken their truce and fighting to the brink of life or death, there was no possibility of stopping.

Even if a ceasefire were possible, she wouldn't dare do so. She had come to Spirit Source Valley on orders from the Holy Ancestor to find Dragon Flame Grass. Knowing the treasure was here, but retreating out of fear... the walls have ears. If this matter reached the Holy Ancestor’s ears, what would happen?

While this young man was troublesome, compared to the Holy Ancestor's wrath, he was insignificant.

With these thoughts in mind, the female demon prepared to summon another treasure. However, it was Lin Xuan who acted first.

He raised his left hand, fingers curling into claws and gripping with immense force.

Sizzle...

A spatial fluctuation occurred as the earth’s qi gathered together. A green giant hand appeared before their eyes, covered in faded runes, with mysterious ancient text faintly visible on its surface.

This hand was over ten feet long. As soon as it appeared, it curled into claws and lunged downward.

The female demon’s face showed a hint of surprise but quickly turned to a sneer.

It's like trying to play the lute in front of a master. No wonder this move seemed familiar; he had used it on his husband just now, and she saw it clearly from afar.

Almost instantly, her husband dispelled it. This move was merely showy and impractical for dealing with a Divination Realm existence.

"Ah, I see the purpose is to buy time. He must have something more powerful up his sleeve," the female demon thought. She paid no mind to this green giant hand, flicking her wrist and sending out a black light that transformed into a thick yellow serpent-like demon snake, which lunged forward with its blood-red mouth.

This move was just an arbitrary attempt, so its power wasn’t particularly impressive. But given her husband’s example, she believed it would be sufficient to handle the giant hand.

She only used one-tenth of her strength for defense while reserving nine-tenths to watch Lin Xuan and see what other tricks he had up his sleeve.

Lin Xuan did indeed act.

He flicked his sleeves, and countless leaf-shaped法宝 flew out, thin as cicada wings and in the thousands.

The woman’s expression changed dramatically. While his Nine Palaces Quick Sword only numbered eighty-one, it was already overwhelming; now, she faced ten times more treasures...

She was somewhat alarmed.

However, Twin Storm Demons were no ordinary foes. As a Divination Realm ancient monster, after her initial shock, she quickly discerned the situation.

While these leaf-shaped flying knives were numerous and seemed powerful, compared to his Nine Palaces Quick Sword, they fell short in every way.

In essence, they were just showy distractions.

Tiny brat, you nearly scared me.

The female demon’s anger turned to joy as she laughed. She reached out her hand and patted her waist, intending to take out another treasure. But at that moment, a "puff" sound entered her ears from above.

She didn’t pay attention, assuming the giant hand had been broken by her demon snake. However, in the next instant, she felt something was amiss.

The actual situation was completely different from what she expected.

A strange flame appeared between the fingers of the giant hand, colorful and eerie.

Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire!

The demon snake, merely a casual throw, couldn’t withstand this Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire. It instantly evaporated into nothingness.

The female demon’s expression turned pale as she realized she had been duped. But it was too late to change her tactics. A "whoosh" sound filled the air as the Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire approached within a dozen feet of her, enveloping her from head to toe.

After continuous cultivation and fusion, the Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire now possessed four attributes: coldness, toxicity, corrosion, and devourment. After absorbing a hundred demon flames, it gained an additional "piercing" effect...

Its power was formidable; even Divination Realm ancient demons would be severely injured if trapped.

However, no matter how wondrous the Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire was, its effects were only effective when it hit the target. Otherwise, all her efforts would be in vain.

The female demon’s wisdom and alertness allowed her to quickly devise a plan to capture Lin Xuan with the Phantom Spirit Heaven Fire. But for anyone else, this would have been impossible.

But Lin Xuan was no ordinary cultivator; his quick thinking and rich combat experience enabled him to find a solution where others would fail.

Wisdom over brute force!

While easy to say, implementing it required countless clever maneuvers.

Lin Xuan’s plan targeted the female demon. When he faced the Green Armored Ancient Demon, he used cunning tactics. Before unleashing his devouring sword for its devastating strike, he formed a giant hand with qi and grabbed at her. However, this move was not particularly impressive; the Green Armored Ancient Demon easily dispelled it by releasing an electric dragon.

The female demon watched the entire process clearly but didn’t realize she had already fallen into Lin Xuan’s trap.

First impression is everything!

Indeed, what Lin Xuan wanted was simply that first impression. After the female demon fell for his trick, he used a similar tactic when facing her.

She dismissed it as a mere decoy to lure her in...
