第两千五百八十九章 空间法则

That was a suffocating feeling.

At Lin Xuan's level, he naturally had some contact with the laws of nature. However, this so-called 'contact' merely meant sensing the surface layer; to actually utilize them required transcending劫期的大能修仙者.

Moreover, everyone’s situation differed. Even if one successfully advanced through the Tribulation Stage, they might still struggle to apply these laws due to being stuck at an early stage of their cultivation.

Nonetheless, no matter what, their achievements were far beyond the realm of the 分神期.

This was why Lin Xuan's battle with Tiaomu felt constrained. It was entirely different from his previous encounters; a misstep could easily lead him into a trap.

At this moment, the opponent once again activated the laws of nature, but there was no retreat for Lin Xuan. He roared loudly and unleashed a powerful punch to the fullest extent of his abilities.

Boom!

The entire space trembled as if it were shaking in that instant. Lin Xuan's cultivation technique, Phoenix Dance Nine Skies, had formidable power, enhanced by the top-grade Qilin fruit and countless treasures. His physical body was already incredibly strong.

This punch seemed to tear through space itself, let alone the powerful Illusory Heavenly Fire attached to the fist. Combined, their powers were no trivial matter.

Instantly, a golden vortex appeared in mid-air, silent yet emitting a powerful suction force.

It wasn't just an air current; it resembled a spatial vortex at first glance.

Tiaomu was also taken aback. Even for a 分神期 ancient demon specializing in body cultivation techniques, such a punch would be unheard of.

This Lin boy truly is impressive, but... soon, his expression turned to cold amusement as the spatial rupture's laws were no easy matter to counter. The opponent’s punch merely represented a last-ditch effort.

Sure enough, from the various sizeable spatial cracks, streaks of white light emerged.

These lights were thin and unremarkable at first glance, but upon sweeping them, they tore apart the golden vortex into fragments.

Then, they rushed forward en masse.

Lin Xuan's full-strength strike only managed to slightly impede their advance. As he faced the encroaching霞雾 and lightning, he had no certainty of completely evading it. Even the True Spirit Inkstone of玄武 wouldn't be able to withstand such an attack.

Moreover, in this situation, defense was not a wise choice; it might even make him a target!

What should he do?

Now facing life or death, Lin Xuan didn’t have time for hesitation. A glint flashed in his eyes as a talisman slid out of his sleeve.

His figure was enveloped by the surging clouds and lightning. The rumbling echoed in his ears as if the heavens themselves had changed color.

Demon winds stirred, lifting dust from the ground.

It took half a cup of tea for all the anomalies to subside.

The sky turned yellowish-brown, and Lin Xuan's figure was nowhere to be seen.

"Haha! Foolish creature, opposing this demon lord finally leaves you nothing but bones."

Tiaomu’s laughter filled his ears with joy. The fall of his archenemy Lin Xuan clearly made him extremely happy; he didn’t even care about his own severe injuries.

However, before the laughter faded, spatial ripples surged. A familiar figure appeared from above a hundred feet high.

"Lin boy!"

Tiaomu’s smile abruptly stopped as disbelief took over. He knew just how powerful that strike was; even in his prime, he wasn’t sure if he could have withstood it.

But at this moment, apart from slightly pale skin, the Lin boy showed no signs of injury. This... How is this possible?

"Hmph!"

Lin Xuan’s expression remained calm on the surface but inwardly, he was secretly relieved. Facing such a fierce attack, he had few good defenses to use. Forced by necessity, he invoked the Perfect Substitute for Tribulation Talisman from the demon realm.

This talisman was indeed perfect; it could only work perfectly against attacks below 分神期. If the attack’s power reached the Tribulation Stage, its effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

Its success was uncertain.

Lin Xuan knew this but had no other choice at the time. So he took a chance on his luck. Of course, he also prepared a backup plan; eggs shouldn’t all be in one basket. His luck held up, and he managed to defuse the danger. The credit went to the Perfect Substitute for Tribulation Talisman.

Unfortunately, it was a one-time item; once used, it vanished into nothingness.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan felt a pang of pain. Since encountering Tiaomu, he had faced numerous dangers, and three of his precious spirit talismans from the demon realm mysteriously disappeared. The frustration was indescribable, and the current peril hadn’t been resolved. He almost wanted to use the Five Dragon Seal in his dantian to directly eliminate the opponent.

Tribulation Stage great cultivators were nothing; with such severe injuries, Lin Xuan believed that if he used the Five Dragon Seal, it could achieve a decisive victory.

However, doing so would be inappropriate. If other ancient monsters noticed, it would be counterproductive.

Thus, while tempted to do so, Lin Xuan couldn’t actually act on his anger. But the frustration was evident as he waved his sleeve and summoned another treasure.

It was an ancient-looking long spear from the Snow Fox clan, but its origins were unclear. Its complexity likely rivaled that of先天灵宝.

Unfortunately, due to his shallow cultivation, he could only unleash part of its power. While it couldn’t match the Five Dragon Seal, it was still a decisive weapon.

But Lin Xuan's anger had reached a boiling point; he didn't care about such details anymore.

"Do you want to use the laws of nature to take my life? Then let me show you how powerful my spatial prowess is!" A sinister glint flashed across his face as he acted without hesitation.
