第三千三百一十一章 智勇双全

Lin Xuan's arrival invigorated the cultivators of Cloud Concealment Sect, while the old patriarch Jin Wu's expression was a sight to behold.

But now that things had reached this point, he could no longer retreat; otherwise, he would become a laughingstock in the entire cultivation world.

There's an old saying: "Once you draw the bow, there's no turning back."

Fortunately, while Lin Xuan was not an easy opponent, the old monster might not be afraid. He had full confidence in his own strength. Although Lin Xuan wasn't someone to easily deal with, who would win or lose could only be determined by battle.

Since he was destined to tear off their masks, there was no need for him to kowtow to Lin Xuan. After frowning and sizing up the young man for a moment, he suddenly sneered darkly: "What arrogance! Wanting to challenge me? You really don't know when to die. Since this is how you feel, I'll give you a lesson."

Before his words were even finished, his right hand rose lightly and pressed towards Lin Xuan with a palm strike.

The movement was devoid of any fiery aggression, and no spiritual light appeared. Many cultivators watching from the sidelines were left speechless, scratching their heads in confusion.

Only those old monsters hidden in the shadows, who had reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, narrowed their eyes, their expressions filled with shock.

A true expert can tell at a glance.

The lower-ranked cultivators were still in the dark, which was not surprising. The higher one's cultivation and insight, the more they could discern about this technique.

Indeed, it lacked any fiery aggression because he had reached a state of simplicity and purity.

No spiritual light or sound meant that this palm contained法则 power (law).

Tribulation Transcending cultivators could touch the laws of heaven and earth at the Spirit Cultivation stage, but only those who had transcended tribulations truly understood and utilized them.

The strength of such a technique was debatable, but it would certainly surpass ordinary treasures.

Jin Wu, originally a demon, might appear withered as an old man when transformed, but that was just his appearance. In reality, he had reached an astonishing level of power, his body cultivation techniques being unparalleled.

This palm strike was the manifestation of force law.

Yet, on the surface, there were no signs of it.

If faced by a cultivator who knew him well and fought with full effort, it would be fine. But if he let his guard down even slightly, the consequences could be dire.

Despite Jin Wu's arrogant demeanor and disdain for others, he was actually quite meticulous.

He had not held back in this strike and had set up a trap to exploit Lin Xuan’s overconfidence.

There was a reason behind it.

That young man, though at the Tribulation Transcending stage, his lifespan was minuscule compared to theirs. Young and successful, he might be overly proud and prone to carelessness. Such people were easy to underestimate.

If he hadn't miscalculated, Lin Xuan would easily fall into his trap.

Jin Wu's eyes gleamed with a hint of satisfaction.

And just as expected, Lin Xuan did not summon any treasure but instead sneered, raising his right hand and striking forward.

"Idiot, utterly foolish."

Jin Wu was overjoyed, believing he had outsmarted him.

The old monsters hidden in the shadows shook their heads and sighed, shaking their heads in disapproval.

Lin Xuan might be powerful, but now he seemed too foolish.

Jin Wu was a demon, mastering the essence of force law. Engaging in direct body cultivation techniques was like an old man hanging by his own rope, wishing for longer life.

Incredible!

It looked like this battle would end with Lin Xuan's defeat.

And Cloud Concealment Sect's current scale relied entirely on its reputation to hold it together.

If Lin Xuan were to fall here, the sect might not disintegrate, but their situation wouldn't be much better.

But such an outcome was precisely what these old monsters desired.

Their envy and jealousy of Cloud Concealment Sect led them to hope for his misfortune.

As this thought raced through their minds, they soon realized how wrong they were.

Lin Xuan wasn't that easy to deal with; he wouldn't be careless or overconfident.

He had spent only a few thousand years reaching the Tribulation Transcending stage. But what did that matter? Lin Xuan's cultivation experience was far richer than most cultivators, not inferior to those of his peers in any way.

He could easily discern the force law hidden within Jin Wu’s palm strike.

Jokingly, he was equally adept at mastering such laws.

Wasn't Jin Wu being arrogant?

Fine, then I won’t use any tricks. Let's see if you can withstand my direct force and break your force law.

Lin Xuan had full confidence in his own strength. Demons? True Spirit Realm Lin Xiao would cut them down.

They had no grudge or enmity; he came to Cloud Concealment Sect to provoke the tiger, so he wouldn’t leave easily without tasting my might.

The entire process was complex but took only an instant.

Bang!

A fist and a palm collided in mid-air with force.

Originally, their attacks lacked any fiery aggression.

But when the fist met the palm, a fierce gale erupted, and terrifying explosions echoed. A massive mysterious aura suddenly appeared between them, its surface covered in multi-colored glass-like layers, constantly spewing out rune symbols the size of fists, dazzlingly bright. The spiritual pressure it emitted was formidable, causing cultivators watching from the sidelines to retreat.

No clear winner!

Lin Xuan also mastered force law.

And he wasn’t inferior to Jin Wu, a demon who had mastered such laws. To be able to match him evenly was beyond comprehension.

The old monsters' faces were filled with shock.

Such results were too unexpected.

But what followed left them even more speechless. "Pfft," the sound of blood spewing into the air echoed in their ears. Clearly, Lin Xuan's punch had the upper hand. Jin Wu was merely holding on but could no longer withstand it. A mouthful of blood erupted from his mouth as he stumbled back several steps, his face turning pale. The blow must have been quite painful.

How is this possible?

Jin Wu was a genuine demon, skilled in body cultivation techniques and mastering force law. Even other demon cultivators would retreat when facing him, unwilling to engage directly.

Lin Xuan was clearly a human cultivator, but such a scene, no matter the angle, seemed too absurd.

Was he even stronger than legendary tales?

The cultivators were envious and silent. Then Cloud Concealment Sect's disciples erupted in thunderous cheers. (To be continued...)
