Chapter 94

The sword aura was as black as ink, brimming with boundless killing intent and deathly aura.

Facing this sword, Lin Feng felt as if he were confronting a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

He looked in the direction from which the sword aura came and saw a middle-aged man, clad in heavy armor and with a robust build, standing quietly at the forefront of the Divine Martial Army formation. He seemed like the sharpest point of the sword, the most lethal edge, exuding an overwhelming aura of invincible power.

"Xie?" Lin Feng's brows furrowed slightly. In an instant, the Twenty-Four Heavenly Vajra Formation was already set up, with Buddhist light and chanting booming, protecting Lin Feng in the center.

Without hesitation, three Flame Vajra statues rose above his head, transforming into an endless sea of fire, revealing the form of Acala, the Immovable Wisdom King. A beam of Acala's Wrathful Fire intercepted the black sword aura mid-air.

The milky white flames, though seemingly weak, were invincible, instantly burning the black sword aura to ashes.

Although the sword aura disappeared, the heavy killing intent and deathly aura lingered, transforming into rolling black smoke that swirled before Lin Feng.

Xie, who stood at the front of the army formation, didn't move, but his eyebrows lifted slightly. "Acala's Wrathful Fire? Sarira? The Great Thunder Sound Temple's monk?"

He asked three questions but didn't need Lin Feng to answer. A smile suddenly appeared on Xie's face. "You will die anyway."

As he spoke, Xie took a sudden step forward and vanished from his spot.

Lin Feng's mind sounded the highest level of alarm, and all his body hairs stood on end.

Behind him, a thin, black sword light, as fine as a wheat awn, silently penetrated the Buddhist light formation, moving freely through the golden mist like a fish, swiftly stabbing towards Lin Feng's back.

Though the sword light was small, as fine as a needle or a wheat awn, if it hit, it would instantly destroy Lin Feng from his physical body to his soul, leaving no chance of survival!

Although the Buddhist light couldn't block the sword light, it immediately alerted Lin Feng to the attack from behind.

Lin Feng wanted to use the Cloud Dragon Escape to dodge, but he had a feeling that no matter how he moved, the thin, black sword light would follow him like a leech, impossible to shake off.

With this sword, there was no way to escape, no place to hide; all chances of survival were sealed, leaving only the option to stand still and accept the fatal strike.

This was the sword technique of the ancient Killing God Sect, the Heaven-Defying Absolute Sword!

In the universe, there is always a sliver of hope, known as the Great Derivation Number Forty-Nine, which is one less than perfect, allowing for flexibility.

But the sword technique of the Killing God Sect forcibly defies heaven, extinguishing all hope, cutting off that sliver, making it an absolute killing sword, hence the name Heaven-Defying Absolute Sword!

Lin Feng's brows were tightly furrowed, though surprised, he remained calm. The Acala's Wrathful Fire in the sky above him roared, "My Buddha is compassionate, yet can transform into a wrathful form, emitting boundless wrathful fire to destroy all demons and burn everything!"

With this roar, the milky white Acala's Wrathful Fire shot from the third eye of the Acala form, transforming into a hazy fire rain, enveloping Lin Feng's entire body.

Lin Feng's body suddenly stopped, and the black sword light had already caught up, piercing his back. However, it was blocked by the Acala's Wrathful Fire surrounding Lin Feng.

Lin Feng coldly snorted, "I've got you this time." The Acala's Wrathful Fire, which had been covering his entire body like a shield, rapidly concentrated on his back, fully engaging with Xie's Heaven-Defying Absolute Sword.

Upon contact with the milky white flames, the black sword light exploded, transforming into a shower of black sword beams, rapidly stabbing towards Lin Feng.

An endless sea of sword qi seemed to want to engulf and tear Lin Feng apart.

The Acala's Wrathful Fire blocked the attack, but Lin Feng's sense of danger only intensified.

Xie's figure slowly rose from the sea of sword qi, stepping towards Lin Feng, his overwhelming killing intent almost freezing Lin Feng.

"Turns out you're just a little ant in the Qi Condensation stage, who luckily obtained a Buddhist relic and refined it into a magical tool," Xie said calmly. "Now, praise me, or I will kill you."

Lin Feng's eyebrows furrowed. "Praise you? Are you crazy?"

"Of course not," Xie said seriously. "I cultivate the ancient path of killing, and only through killing can I enhance my cultivation, so I keep killing. I've killed so many people that I've become numb, lost, and tired."

"Only after killing someone and receiving praise from others do I feel that killing has meaning again. So, now, praise me!"

Lin Feng sneered. "So you really are crazy. It's my mistake to take you too seriously."

Xie shook his head. "You don't want to? Then you can die."

Before he finished speaking, the long sword at Xie's waist was finally unsheathed, stabbing directly at Lin Feng.

In the void, the endless sword qi and black sword light disappeared, all converging on Xie's sword, aiming for Lin Feng's forehead.

In Lin Feng's field of vision, the tiny sword tip filled his entire view, becoming almost infinitely large.

The grain-sized sword tip, in that moment, was the entire world, leaving nothing else, only this sword.

No way to retreat, no place to escape!

Lin Feng smiled wryly. The Acala's Wrathful Fire was an offensive technique, and using it for defense was a waste. Facing Xie's sword, Lin Feng decided not to defend himself but to attack Xie with all the Acala's Wrathful Fire.

Xie ignored this, aiming straight for Lin Feng's forehead.

Even if he were killed by the Acala's Wrathful Fire, he would still stab Lin Feng first!

The path of absolute killing, only attack, no defense, leaving no chance of survival for the enemy or oneself, was the essence of the Heaven-Defying Absolute Sword!

Defying heaven, cutting off all hope!

Lin Feng's expression finally changed. He could clearly judge that Xie's sword was faster than his Acala's Wrathful Fire.

In this life-or-death confrontation, the result would be that he would be pierced by the Heaven-Defying Absolute Sword first.

In the critical moment, Lin Feng became even calmer, his mind communicating with the Twenty-Four Heavenly Vajra Formation, and his own magical power instantly transforming from the Acala's technique to the Earth Store Sutra.

The twenty-four relics forming the formation were the remains of high-ranking monks from the Great Thunder Sound Temple. Three of these monks had cultivated the Acala's technique, so Lin Feng used these three relics as the core to manifest the Acala's Wrathful Fire.

Now, under the influence of Lin Feng's Earth Store Sutra magical power, one of the twenty-four Vajra statues in the formation reacted.

The other twenty-three Vajra statues simultaneously chanted the Buddha's name, transforming into golden light, merging into the body of that Vajra statue.

This golden Vajra statue radiated a warm, earth-like glow, not blinding but heavy and substantial.

The form of the Vajra statue gradually changed, transforming into a bodhisattva holding a jewel in his left hand and a staff in his right, sitting on a lotus.

The Earth Store Bodhisattva!

"Hell will not be empty until I become a Buddha, and all beings will be saved before I attain enlightenment."

The distant Zen sound seemed to come from the heavens and the netherworld.

The Earth Store Bodhisattva merged with Lin Feng's body, transforming into a radiant dharma body.

The Earth Store Dharma Body!

Just as Lin Feng formed the Earth Store Dharma Body, he saw Xie's sword tip only three inches from his forehead, the overwhelming killing intent and the coldness of the sword freezing his entire body, making him immobile, the situation extremely dangerous.

"Clang!" A crisp sound, Xie's sword stabbed at Lin Feng's forehead but failed to penetrate, blocked by Lin Feng's Earth Store Dharma Body.

Although Lin Feng's forehead ached, the powerful force almost made his mind go blank, but he managed to withstand Xie's fatal strike with the Earth Store Dharma Body.

The entire process was a matter of life and death!

Xie's sword failed, and his figure transformed into a blur, circling around Lin Feng's body, instantly stabbing him hundreds of times, targeting all his vital points.

The Earth Store Dharma Body, a top-tier defensive technique of the Great Thunder Sound Temple, withstood the test, resisting Xie's hundreds of sword strikes without breaking.

"Besides the Acala's Wrathful Fire, you also have the Earth Store Dharma Body?" Xie frowned, suddenly withdrawing his sword and retreating, his figure flashing back to the front of the army formation.

Lin Feng did not relax but became even more vigilant. This bloodthirsty madman would not retreat, and his abnormal actions often meant a more ferocious and brutal attack.

At the front of the army formation, Xie raised his sword, merging his power with the 3,000 Divine Martial Army cultivators, his killing intent surging, almost sweeping across the entire world.

Seeing this, Lin Feng suddenly remembered some information about the Divine Martial Army.

"Bad, it's the Divine Martial Extermination Formation!"
