Chapter 65

On the mountain path, Sun Pingyang watched as Bai Tong's terrifying and frightening fingers were about to touch Lin Yiming. He glanced at the surrounding crowd and couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. "You'll see, you won't be so smug after this. You want to snatch Lin Yiming's good fortune? If you really knew what Lin Yiming has, you'd be scared out of your wits."

And these guys, I'll teach them a lesson first.

Bai Tong saw his hand getting closer and closer to Lin Yiming's neck, and the corners of his mouth began to curl. "Kill this kid, and I can get close to Young Master Liu."

However, a burning sensation suddenly came over him, as if the air around his body had been ignited.

His eyes instantly froze. Opposite him, Lin Yiming's two arms seemed to catch fire in an instant. Before he could react, the burning arms had already struck, and the wind they stirred up made the flames burn even more fiercely.

After a cold snort, the spiritual energy within Lin Yiming's body erupted instantly. In a single breath, the Wu Dao Ling Xin (Martial Dao Spirit Heart) pulsated 96 times, and a hurricane-like surge of spiritual energy rotated within his body before surging towards Bai Tong.

"Thud!"

A dull sound.

The two men's hands collided, and a powerful force radiated outward.

In an instant, Lin Yiming felt a shock in his arms. He could sense that the spiritual energy from Bai Tong's hands, both in quality and quantity, was not as abundant as his own, but Bai Tong's spiritual energy remained condensed and was not dispersed by Lin Yiming's.

Across from Lin Yiming, Bai Tong's mind trembled, and his face showed deep shock. The force transmitted from Lin Yiming was immense, completely beyond his imagination.

Isn't Lin Yiming just a recent entrant to the Wu Dao Ling Xin? But from his current burst of power, it's clear he's at the seventh level of Wu Dao Ling Xin.

Even someone at the seventh level of Wu Dao Ling Xin doesn't have such immense power and such abundant spiritual energy. Just in terms of spiritual energy, I don't even have as much as Lin Yiming!

Was the information wrong, or has Lin Yiming improved? And how can Lin Yiming's spiritual energy be so pure and so overwhelming?

Such overwhelming spiritual energy, even I can't release. If it weren't for my Blood Soul Transformation, which makes my blood much stronger than his, I would have lost just from this one blow.

Bai Tong inwardly thanked his luck.

Across from him, Lin Yiming's brows slightly furrowed, and he thrust his palms again. The azure fiery spirit instantly leaped out from his palms and rushed towards Bai Tong.

A suffocating, intense heat instantly spread around, and a golden-red light flashed, rushing into Bai Tong's body.

"Hisss..."

Bai Tong clearly heard a sound like burning flames in front of him. Immediately, a scorching heat surged in, and his own spiritual energy, which had been able to resist, seemed to evaporate by half, collapsing instantly!

What... what is this heat!

Bai Tong was terrified. He felt an overwhelming force surge through his body, directly sending him flying. The force was accompanied by a strange, scorching heat, and as the heat flowed in, it seemed as if his entire body was being set on fire, and his internal organs seemed to be burning away.

Falling far away on the ground, the protective iron armor on Bai Tong's body had been burned away instantly. In the high temperature, many pieces of iron had melted and stuck to his muscles.

Large patches of his skin were completely burned, leaving behind a series of scorch marks.

Especially on his lower abdomen, the muscles were completely burned away, and a section of his intestines was exposed.

"Ah..."

The intense pain all over his body made Bai Tong fall to the ground, screaming uncontrollably. From a distance, he looked like a cooked shrimp.

He couldn't understand. Lin Yiming had only recently entered the Wu Dao Ling Xin, so how could he be so powerful? From the state around him, it was clear that Lin Yiming had already reached the seventh level of Wu Dao Ling Xin.

And his strength was far beyond that of an ordinary Wu Dao Ling Xin.

In terms of strength alone, even he didn't have that much power. What was even more terrifying was the scorching heat from Lin Yiming's hands, which seemed to be able to burn everything.

He couldn't understand how Lin Yiming suddenly got such a good fortune. As a peak Blood Soul Transformation expert, he had been so easily defeated by Lin Yiming, a small martial artist of the Wu Dao Ling Xin. He really couldn't understand.

Lin Yiming looked at his hands, slightly dazed. The power of this spirit was so strong.

In his last palm strike, he hadn't fully utilized the spirit's power; he had just used it to attack. If the spirit's aura, his spiritual energy, and his body could merge, the power would at least double, or even multiply several times.

While Lin Yiming was thinking, the others surrounding Guoguo and Sun Pingyang were all stunned. Bai Tong and Old Lin had lost? Lost to someone of a lower realm? When they first saw Bai Tong and Old Lin, they couldn't even fight, and now, in just a day or two, Lin Yiming had become so powerful?

What was that flame-like thing?

If Bai Tong and Old Lin had lost, staying here would be courting death.

One of the subordinates started to back away, ready to run down the mountain.

"Want to run? You wanted to surround us, and now you can't fight, so you want to run? Do you think you can run?"

Sun Pingyang suddenly pounced on them. These people were all evil-doers. If left alive, they would continue to harm others. Since that was the case, it was better to eliminate them early.

Sun Pingyang rushed into the group of Bai Tong's subordinates, and it was like a wolf among sheep, causing chaos among Bai Tong's men.

Lin Yiming also walked over to Bai Tong and stopped.

"I know you're in pain and want to end it quickly. Tell me why you came to attack me."

"Let me go, let me go, I'll tell you..." Although Bai Tong had only been hit once, he spoke weakly, clearly on his last breath.

"You don't have the right to bargain with me. If you don't tell me, others will. Your subordinates will be happy to tell me."

Lin Yiming sneered at the lying Bai Tong, standing up and sighing inwardly. Life is indeed unpredictable. He wasn't a match for Bai Tong, but because of the spirit, his strength had greatly increased, and now he could directly crush and defeat Bai Tong.

Seeing Lin Yiming about to ask others, Bai Tong panicked. He really didn't want to endure the burning pain and the continuous bleeding from his wounds.

"It was Young Master Liu, Liu Yuliang. He told me to kill you. He said that you, being so young, had become a great appraiser and might become a threat to him in the future, so he asked me to kill you!" Bai Tong blurted out Liu Yuliang's purpose in one breath.

"It's him!" Lin Yiming's eyes narrowed, and a surge of anger rose from his abdomen. He and his family and village had never provoked him; it was always him who had been provoking them, forcing his sister to marry him, injuring people in the village, and cutting off the village's water supply. Now, he wanted to kill him.

Want to kill me? Fine, I'll kill you first!

Lin Yiming clenched his fists tightly.

Seeing Lin Yiming's fists, the originally handsome face of Lin Yiming twisted with a fierce expression, which scared Bai Tong.

"Don't kill me. I've already told you everything is because of Liu Yuliang. There's a cause for every effect. If you want revenge, go after Liu Yuliang. These things have nothing to do with me; I was just helping Liu Yuliang."

Bai Tong struggled to lift his head and said to Lin Yiming with a pleading look, "I'm from the Bai family. If you kill me, you'll offend the Bai family, which won't benefit you at all. Spare my life, and I'll remember your kindness. In the future, if you need anything, I'll help you."

"Has nothing to do with you? You knew I had nothing to do with you, yet you still wanted to kill me? You want to kill me, and you think I'll let you live?"

Lin Yiming sneered and slapped Bai Tong's head.

With a crisp sound, Bai Tong's head shattered under the impact of Lin Yiming's powerful force, and brain matter and blood mixed and slowly flowed out from the broken skull.

"Liu Yuliang, you're next. You want me dead? I'll kill you first. With my current strength, I'll see if you or your subordinates can stop me!"
