第三千二百七十八章 元神灯

"Good, could you tell me the reason for this?" The young lion sect.

Faced with this old monster at the late-stage Tribulation Transcending realm, Lin Xuan's expression showed no trace of fear.

"Comrade, your courage truly impresses me. Alright, this isn't a secret either. Since you insist on knowing, I might as well tell you."

Heavenly Sound Fairy raised her head and looked at Lin Xuan with a slight smile. Her voice was gentle as she spoke into his ears: "Miaoyin Junior Sister left an Essence Lamp in the main hall. Now that she has fallen, the Essence Lamp should have gone out too."

Lin Xuan nodded. This wasn't unusual; many major sects had such practices. But while the Essence Lamp could show a person's life or death, how could one know if it was due to his hand?

Could it be that Miaoyin Fairy's cultivation technique was unique and had some other magical properties?

However, when he killed this woman, Lin Xuan didn't notice anything amiss.

Heard from the side, Heavenly Sound Fairy continued: "Our Heavenly Sound Sect has a long history. How can our Supreme Elder have died in such an inexplicable manner? When you eliminated Miaoyin Junior Sister, her lingering resentment would naturally enter your soul. Others might not notice any issues, but we in the sect could clearly sense it."

"Ah, I see."

Lin Xuan finally understood the whole situation. But by now, it was too late to change anything.

Since this woman had appeared here, there would be no peaceful resolution. Lin Xuan raised his head: "What does Fairy wish?"

"How? You dared kill our Supreme Elder and still come to our main hall to show off your power. You must think highly of yourself. Since that's the case, as host, can't I treat you properly too?"

"Your words are harsh. As they say, it is better to resolve an enemy than to keep them as a foe. I killed Miaoyin for reasons beyond my control. Must you insist on pressing me further?"

If possible, Lin Xuan didn't want to be enemies with someone at the late-stage Tribulation Transcending realm. Moreover, he was in their main hall, and there was still Qinxin by his side who needed protection. The best course of action would be not to fight.

Although he knew this chance was slim, how could he know it wouldn't work if he didn't try?

In any case, he would do his part and leave the rest to fate. He would first make a move and see what happened next.

"Flattery won't help you here," the voice of Heavenly Sound Sect's leader rang coldly in his ears. Her expression was as lifeless as if looking at a corpse.

Lin Xuan's face darkened. He never imagined that everything would go smoothly until he faced this outcome.

He wouldn't leave without making a bloody path today.

If it were just him, things might be different. He could still escape in a panic, but with his wife and the girl named Qin Yu by his side, it was impossible.

Lin Xuan's mind raced, but he couldn't come up with a perfect escape plan.

Well, he would take it one step at a time and strike first.

With that thought, Lin Xuan flicked his sleeves. A clear sound echoed as dozens of silver lights emerged from his sleeves, expanding in the wind to form several sword beams a foot long, swirling around him.

He raised his right hand slowly but quickly pointed forward.

Sizzle...

As he moved, the silver lights grew, and the divine swords trembled, splitting into seven. In an instant, hundreds of sword beams shone brightly.

The opponent was indeed at late-stage Tribulation Transcending realm.

Although they might not be domain masters, their strength alone made Lin Xuan dare not underestimate them. So he immediately used his命宝 (life treasure).

Nine Palaces Momentary Sword's grand aura surged like a tidal wave. The dazzling sword beams rushed forward with the power to move mountains and rivers!

The entire void seemed on the verge of being torn apart.

Rule of the sword emanated from the blade.

Facing such a formidable enemy, Lin Xuan couldn't afford any weaknesses. Although he hadn't unleashed all his powers, the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword's might was already at its peak.

Now that he was an intermediate-stage元婴 (immortal embryo) cultivator, this move was vastly different from before.

The power was immense, and heaven and earth seemed to change color.

Heavenly Sound Sect's leader couldn't help but turn pale.

Seeing the signs, she realized her opponent wasn't just any ordinary cultivator. No wonder Miaoyin had fallen at his hands.

But with such minor powers, daring to cause trouble in Heavenly Sound Sect was sheer recklessness.

"Idiot!"

Her sharp cry echoed as she flicked her jade hand, producing an ancient zither.

Then the woman stretched out both hands, her slender fingers gracefully touching the strings. The music flowed like lightning, golden notes cascading from her fingertips.

In a flash of brilliance, they transformed into golden sword beams!

The number was more than the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword's, just as formidable and fierce as a storm. They pierced through the air, clashing with silver light in mid-air, their ringing sounds piercing his ears. The different-colored flying swords chased each other without end.

No clear winner!

From an external perspective, it seemed evenly matched. But Lin Xuan's expression was dark.

The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword was his命宝 (life treasure), hinting at the power of a divine treasure. He knew its strength well and had used all his might in this attack. Ordinary cultivators of the same level would never dare to face it head-on.

But she easily blocked him, showing no strain, using only musical notes.

The Sound Wave Technique indeed had its mysteries; late-stage Tribulation Transcending realm beings were so difficult to handle.

Lin Xuan was greatly alarmed.

His previous attack hadn't succeeded but had served as a test. However, the situation was even more perilous than he had anticipated. What should he do?

"Little fellow, you have some skill. If that's the case, how about you take one of Fairy's moves?"

The icy voice of Heavenly Sound Sect's leader echoed in his ears. Golden notes flew from her fingertips.

Then those notes merged into a loud dragon call, transforming into a crimson dragon several dozen feet long, wriggling towards Lin Xuan.

The dragon was imposing, its pressure not inferior to that of late-stage Tribulation Transcending realm beings.

Opening its blood-red maw, it spat out terrifying beams of light at him.

And this wasn't over. More golden notes flew from the woman's hands and merged again, this time forming a fierce lion.

Roar!

Raising its head, it let out a roar.

Instantly, the void seemed to ripple like a small lake blown by the wind, rushing towards Lin Xuan with ferocity.
