A frosty wind screamed past.
Meanwhile, an immense killing intent crushed down from the sky.
Liu Mingxuan gripped his sword tightly as he stared at the nearing God Engulfing Skeleton.
Although he couldn’t block the God Engulfing Skeleton’s strike, he was still hell-bent on performing the last sword strike of his life. “The reason that I, Liu Mingxuan, am dying here today is not because of you. Rather, it’s because of— Ahhh!”
Liu Mingxuan suddenly screamed in fright.
His waist had been grabbed by someone, and he was violently jerked toward another direction.
The red scythe slashed down at this instant. However, all it hit was empty air and earth. In fact, the ground was split into two by the tremendous force of the strike.
Liu Mingxuan saw the person who had grabbed him. His face was handsome, and his eyes were piercing and profound. Like Liu Mingxuan, he was also dressed in a white robe. This person was extremely similar to him. However, he possessed a uniquely different aura.
Liu Mingxuan was a bit dazed. “Y-You’re…” he stammered in disbelief.
“Enough with the nonsense! If it weren’t for Liu Qianhuan, I would’ve never bothered saving you!” There was a look of irritation on the handsome male’s face.
This male was none other than An Lin who had rushed over here after detecting the shockwaves of a battle. He had initially wanted to pick off wounded enemies. However, much to his surprise, what entered his vision was an extremely terrifying scene.
The God Engulfing Skeleton was attempting to kill Liu Mingxuan?
Although he didn’t like Liu Mingxuan, Liu Qianhuan would probably be really sad if he died, right? Moreover, Liu Qianhuan was a main force of the Kingdom of the Nine States in their war against the Heavenly Human Tribe. They couldn’t afford to lose such a powerful warrior!
An Lin had barely hesitated before deciding to rescue Liu Mingxuan.
He fled several hundred kilometers from the battlefield before letting go of Liu Mingxuan. As he let go, there was a clear look of disdain on his face.
Afterward, a bright flash radiated from his storage ring. Then, a crystal formation disk appeared in his hands.
“Xiao Fu, set up the Karma Star Protection Formation and protect this annoying male,” An Lin instructed. “While you’re at it, heal his wounds as well!”
The adorable loli blinked in confusion as she leaped out from the formation disk. She couldn’t understand why An Lin called this male annoying, yet he still wanted to protect and heal him.
Three seconds later, Xiao Fu finally understood. “Leave it to me!” she replied excitedly.
A powerful spell formation was instantly constructed around Liu Mingxuan’s body.
Liu Mingxuan wore a complicated expression as he looked toward the white-robed male before him. “An Lin, I owe you one… However, this Spirit Realm is full of powerful beings from the Void Spirit Tribe. It’s best if we retreat first…”
“Stop spouting nonsense. You can’t even defeat a mere God Engulfing Skeleton! Stay put and enjoy my performance.” There was a look of impatience on An Lin’s face as he dismissively waved Liu Mingxuan’s suggestions aside.
“You!” Liu Mingxuan’s chest tightened in anger.
At this moment, the red cloud in the distance was already drawing closer and closer. Next to it, there were also several clouds of black mists.
“Hahaha… and I was wondering who it was. Aren’t you the mice who escaped from me a short while ago?” There was a mocking look on the God Engulfing Skeleton’s face.
“Why are you coming back to seek death after fleeing with so much difficulty? Has your brain been fried?” The severely wounded Infernal Abyss Emperor also started to taunt An Lin.
The image of An Lin fleeing in panic was already deeply imprinted into the two super-mighty being’s minds. Now that their prey had reappeared, they were understandably feeling both surprised and delighted.
Now was the perfect opportunity to wash away their previous humiliation!
“An Lin, you can’t escape this time. Accept your death!” The God Engulfing Skeleton charged toward An Lin ferociously.
An Lin stepped out of the Karma Star Protection Formation. “Escape?” he snickered coldly.
He slowly unsheathed his Evil-Slaying Sword. “My apologies. The reason for my return is to slay you two!”
Slay us?
The God Engulfing Skeleton and Infernal Abyss Emperor were both momentarily dazed. Then, they immediately started to roar with laughter.
“Hahaha… am I hearing this correctly? Little Mice An Lin wants to kill us?” The Infernal Abyss Emperor clutched its pitch-black stomach as it bent over in laughter.
“Has he already forgotten how disheveled he was when he fled from us not too long ago?” the God Engulfing Skeleton sneered. “I don’t mind teaching him another deep and soul-reaching lesson…”
An Lin remained silent. Then, he stamped his feet, and his body instantly tore through the void and appeared before the God Engulfing Skeleton. A brilliant, sun-like radiance erupted from his fists.
“What? So quick!” The God Engulfing Skeleton was startled. However, the scythe in its hand sliced through the void at an even quicker speed as it drew a deadly arc toward An Lin.
An Lin’s eyes had already become pure white. Everything before him appeared to slow down. He leaned forward slightly and dodged the scythe attack with an agile movement technique. At the same time, his fist also smashed down.
Boom!
A golden divine power surged out, and the formidable power contained within An Lin’s fist even caused the nearby Infernal Abyss Emperor to be thrown off its feet.
Meanwhile, the God Engulfing Skeleton howled in agony as it tumbled down from the sky.
“How is this possible… How can you be so powerful…?” The God Engulfing Skeleton sensed that An Lin’s power had already reached the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage. “No… I must’ve been too careless just then!”
At this moment, a piercingly cold sword intent swept through the void.
Ninety-nine white celestial swords materialized in the void and released a boundless sword might. The entire space was then illuminated by the boundless sword might.
A black divine halo that was radiating with a supreme divine might appeared above An Lin’s head. The power of metal was imbued into each and every celestial sword, causing them all to develop an invincible might!
“Six Strikes of the War God—Hundred Sword Technique!”
Streaks of brilliant sword projections pierced down from the sky.
The God Engulfing Skeleton could feel a life-threatening danger oozing from the descending sword projections. It hastily swung its blood-red scythe toward the swords that were stabbing down toward it.
However, each sword weighed several million tonnes, and it was as if their descent could never be stopped. Eventually, they collided with the God Engulfing Skeleton’s scythe explosively. Its bones shuddered violently, and it almost lost its grip on the scythe in its hand.
What kind of devastating power is this?
How is An Lin able to wield such power?!
The God Engulfing Skeleton knew that An Lin could wield powers similar to the heavenly god powers. However, wasn’t there a strict limit on how many times he could unleash such a power? Why was he unleashing this power so unrestrainedly?
Eventually, the celestial swords tore through the God Engulfing Skeleton’s defenses and stabbed into its body. As the extremely sharp blades collided into its bones, its strong, immortal tool-like dao bones were instantly torn apart.
“Ahhh!” The God Engulfing Skeleton’s agonized howl rang through the air once more.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bursts of sword intent exploded outward as shattered bones flew everywhere.
The ninety-nine celestial swords had all stabbed down at the same instant.
The God Engulfing Skeleton had been run through by the celestial swords, and its injury-riddled body was now laying on the floor listlessly.
The Evil-Slaying Sword emitted an extremely dazzling radiance as it transformed into the last sword of the Hundred Sword Technique. It descended from the sky and pierced through the God Engulfing Skeleton’s chest, pinning it to the ground.
An Lin descended from the sky and placed a foot on the God Engulfing Skeleton’s head. “Is that all you’ve got as one of the strongest super mighty beings of the Void Spirit Tribe? Little Mice An Lin has barely warmed up yet!”
There was a vacant look in the God Engulfing Skeleton’s eyes as it coughed out a few shards of obliterated bone.
“How is this possible… Why have your aura and strength suddenly become so much more powerful? You’re clearly stronger than me… so why did you flee before?”
The God Engulfing Skeleton couldn’t link the panicked An Lin from before to the unbelievably powerful An Lin of present.
As for the Infernal Abyss Emperor, its entire body was trembling in terror as it lay collapsed in the distance. It was clear that it had already been scared out of its wits. The male before it clearly wasn’t Little Mice An Lin… He was Papa An Lin!
