Chapter 89

Lin Tian steadied himself, the true essence within his body flowing, instantly dispelling the feeling of chest tightness.

Staring ahead, Lin Tian had to admit that Zhou Hao, at the Divine Pulse Realm, was indeed very strong.

Zhou Hao stood with one hand behind his back, looking at Lin Tian and said coldly, "Do you see the gap? It's impossible for someone at the Body Tempering stage to contend with someone at the Divine Pulse Realm. In the end, you will fall from this main arena just like everyone else." He paused, his eyes becoming more sinister, "But, you will suffer more than the others."

"You are really quite confident."

Lin Tian said indifferently.

"Confident? What a joke, do I need confidence to defeat you? In my eyes, you are just an ant."

Zhou Hao said.

Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Oh? Ever since you stood on this main arena, your tone and attitude have gradually changed. What, you don't need to pretend anymore?"

Zhou Hao sneered, "A life-and-death battle, you die, I live, no need to hold back."

"You die, I live?" Lin Tian mocked, "Arrogant."

Zhou Hao grunted, his figure flickering as he instantly charged at Lin Tian. In an instant, a sinister and cold sword intent locked onto Lin Tian, powerful and terrifying.

Most importantly, Zhou Hao's speed was very fast.

"Sword Slash!"

A cold voice rang out, Zhou Hao appeared in front of Lin Tian, his astonishing speed causing many spectators to exclaim in surprise.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound echoed, Lin Tian's long sword once again blocked Zhou Hao's silver sword.

Zhou Hao frowned, the silver sword in his right hand vibrating, using the same technique, a vast sword aura erupted from the sword.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort sounded.

In Lin Tian's hand, the long sword also vibrated, the sword intent of the Windstorm Sword Technique surged, sword aura radiating in all directions.

With a boom, both of them retreated.

"This..."

"This strike, actually ended in a draw with Zhou Hao?"

"Amazing!"

Many people were shocked.

Lin Tian was at the Body Tempering stage, while Zhou Hao was at the Divine Pulse Realm. Yet, in this one move, although Lin Tian retreated, he also forced Zhou Hao to take a few steps back.

"This guy."

Su Shu's eyes sparkled.

Zhou Hao's face darkened slightly, being forced back by a Body Tempering cultivator, he felt his dignity was damaged.

"You are quite good!"

Zhou Hao said sinisterly.

Lin Tian said indifferently, "No need for you to say, I have always been good." Holding the sword, facing the Divine Pulse Realm Zhou Hao, he appeared calm and composed.

Zhou Hao's face turned even colder, "Just good at talking."

His right hand trembled, the silver sword in Zhou Hao's hand emitted a piercing sword sound, causing many spectators to cover their ears.

"This is... the Thirteen Sword Slashes?"

"Right, it's the Thirteen Sword Slashes!"

Someone exclaimed.

The Thirteen Sword Slashes, a high-level Body Tempering martial technique, could rank in the top three among techniques of the same level.

The Thirteen Sword Slashes, with extremely fast slashing speed and terrifying power. Each slash was accompanied by a piercing sword sound, which seemed to converge from all directions, disturbing the mind. This martial technique was also very difficult to cultivate, and it was hard for ordinary people to reach the Great Success stage.

"From the looks of it, Zhou Hao seems to have cultivated this martial technique to Great Success."

Someone whispered.

On the main arena, Zhou Hao's figure flickered, his speed increasing even more, and he instantly appeared in front of Lin Tian.

The piercing sword sound echoed, the cold sword aura ruthlessly slashed down.

Lin Tian felt a sense of threat, the sword in Zhou Hao's hand brought him a tremendous pressure. Without hesitation, he moved his feet, instantly crossing three zhang, avoiding Zhou Hao's sword.

"Huh?"

Zhou Hao's voice was filled with surprise, as he was avoided again by Lin Tian.

His face darkened, Zhou Hao did not stop, the silver sword trembling, he slashed at Lin Tian again.

However, this strike also missed.

"Third Slash!"

Zhou Hao shouted, continuing to pursue Lin Tian.

But, Lin Tian seemed to be able to sense his attack rhythm, always managing to avoid at the last moment.

This scene left many spectators amazed.

On the main arena, Lin Tian's expression was calm, his figure continuously flickering. He cultivated the Tianyi Soul Technique and was a third-stage array master, his perception far surpassing that of cultivators of the same level. Relying on his powerful soul power, he could always capture the trajectory of Zhou Hao's sword as it approached his body, then dodge at high speed.

"Pathetic! You only know how to run!"

Zhou Hao mocked, after several consecutive sword slashes failed to hit Lin Tian, his face turned even colder.

"Run?"

Lin Tian laughed coldly.

With a whoosh, in a moment that no one noticed, his speed suddenly increased, appearing in front of Zhou Hao almost instantly, slashing down with his sword.

Zhou Hao's expression changed, hurriedly raising his silver sword to defend.

At this moment, Lin Tian kicked out, still astonishingly fast.

Zhou Hao's face changed again, he suddenly kicked the platform, his figure retreating rapidly.

"Facing me, a small Body Tempering cultivator, why are you retreating? Aren't you a Divine Pulse Realm expert?"

Lin Tian's voice sounded.

Standing in place, the tip of his long sword touching the ground, Lin Tian's expression was mocking.

"Winning by a half move, what are you so proud of?"

Zhou Hao's voice was filled with disdain.

"Half move? You are really arrogant."

Lin Tian mocked, as he spoke, his figure flashed, moving like lightning, instantly appearing in front of Zhou Hao again, his long sword ruthlessly slashing down.

Such astonishing speed instantly shocked many people.

"Clang!"

Zhou Hao raised his silver sword, blocking Lin Tian's long sword.

"Oh? Blocked, not bad! Let's continue."

Lin Tian sneered, with a whoosh, the next moment, his figure vanished, then suddenly appeared behind Zhou Hao, his long sword slashing down again.

Zhou Hao was startled, hurriedly crouching to avoid Lin Tian's strike.

"Not bad, let's continue."

Lin Tian's voice sounded.

However, this voice was extremely grating to Zhou Hao's ears.

However, Zhou Hao could no longer care about this. At this moment, Lin Tian's speed was extremely fast, as if he was moving through spatial nodes, seemingly merging with the space. Each time the first sword just landed, the second sword would already be falling from another direction, making Zhou Hao struggle to keep up.

"Fast! So fast!"

"This..."

"Lin Tian? How did his speed suddenly become so terrifying!"

Many spectators were shaken.

At this moment, Lin Tian's speed was so fast that many people could not even see his movements clearly.

In the distance, even Mu Qing and Shi Dong were moved.

"This figure, very similar to the scene when he fought Mo Sen last time, just faster." Shi Dong said solemnly, "During the previous assessment, I found it strange. Could this be some kind of body technique?"

"Just looking at his steps when he moves, it is more exquisite than the Seven Supreme Flowing Clouds body technique I cultivate at the Divine Pulse Realm. However, the Wu Mansion does not have any similar body techniques. Where did this kid learn such a body technique!"

Mu Qing frowned.

Both were peak Divine Pulse Realm experts, naturally able to clearly capture Lin Tian's movements. However, this only made them more shocked.

Shi Dong paused, "Lin Tian, the young master of the Lin family in Fengjian City, was always weak and often bullied. Before the Wu Mansion assessment, the old residence of the Lin family was burned down, and he disappeared for a few days. When he reappeared, he seemed to have changed, directly reaching the third level of Body Tempering, and already possessing that body technique."

For disciples entering the Nine Yang Wu Mansion, the Wu Mansion would naturally conduct a thorough investigation of their backgrounds, especially for someone with Lin Tian's nine-star talent. Therefore, Shi Dong had already learned about Lin Tian's past from the Wu Mansion investigators.

A glint of insight flashed in Mu Qing's eyes, "Your meaning is?"

"Behind him, there must be a great master."

Shi Dong lowered his voice.

Mu Qing was silent, then nodded after a moment, "Very likely!"

Lin Tian had a nine-star talent, and if discovered by some wandering hermits, they would not let him go, definitely taking him as a disciple. Only in this way could it be explained why Lin Tian, after disappearing for a few days, directly reached the third level of Body Tempering and possessed such a profound body technique.

The two exchanged glances, their faces becoming heavy.

"This possibility is very high, and if true, that hermit, after passing on some cultivation techniques, would let him cultivate on his own, then continue wandering. Such a carefree and free-spirited hermit is often the most terrifying." Mu Qing said solemnly, "Even the imperial royal family might not dare to provoke him."

Imperial power, though terrifying, is nothing but a joke in front of some extremely powerful cultivators.

"This kid..."

Shi Dong smiled bitterly.

Lin Tian was an absolute genius, but suddenly, Shi Dong and Mu Qing felt that he might also be a hot potato.

"What are you whispering about?"

Su Shu asked curiously.

Mu Qing coughed dryly, shaking his head, "Nothing."

Su Shu glared, just as the sound of weapons clashing continued to come.

On the main arena, Lin Tian's steps were exquisite, his speed astonishingly fast, moving in a trajectory that was hard for ordinary people to capture, causing great trouble for Zhou Hao, forcing him to defend.

"Puff!"

A streak of blood splattered, Zhou Hao's chest was struck by a sword.

"The first person of the Outer Mansion, you are injured."

Lin Tian's voice sounded simultaneously.

At this moment, Zhou Hao's chest had a clear sword mark, blood dripping, extremely glaring.

"Actually, he injured Zhou Hao?!"

Many spectators stared wide-eyed.

Many disciples could not help but draw a cold breath. Lin Tian, with his Body Tempering stage cultivation, had actually slashed and injured Zhou Hao, a Divine Pulse Realm expert, which was simply terrifying.

In the distance, Lu Sheng's face turned even uglier, even pale, a Divine Pulse Realm expert was actually injured!

"That little brat, how strong is he!"

Lu Sheng gritted his teeth.

On the main arena, Zhou Hao's face turned extremely dark.

"Very good! From a young age, you are the first to wound me!" A vicious look flashed in his eyes, Zhou Hao's body trembled, a more terrifying aura spreading out, "I will make you pay the most terrible price!"
