Stop chasing, I'll show you a real gem!

Lin Yuan's heart suddenly froze. He exchanged a look with Xue Linglong in his arms, and both saw intense horror in the other's eyes.

The Nine Nether Xuan Yin Grand Array was actually breached from the inside!

Without any hesitation, the two quickly rolled out of bed and put on their clothes.

The moment he rushed out the door, the sight before Lin Yuan caused his pupils to contract sharply.

He saw that the light barrier of the "Nine Nether Xuan Yin Grand Array" above Black Stone City, which was usually indestructible, was now covered in cracks like a shattered eggshell, and a massive gap had appeared directly above the city.

Dense streams of light, like a swarm of locusts, were frantically pouring through the gap, including many Core Formation Stage Cultivators with powerful auras!

"Retreat! Rendezvous at Tianyuan City!"

Lin Yuan made a quick decision and grabbed across the air.

The several Formation Flags planted around the small courtyard instantly turned into streams of light and flew into his palm, and the Lesser Nine Nether Soul-Bewitching Array covering the courtyard dissipated with them.

The City Protecting Grand Array was broken, the number of Core Formation Cultivators in the city was sparse, and the Misty Immortal Sect had come prepared. Staying here meant certain death!

However, just as he and Xue Linglong flew into the air, two streams of Qi locked onto him.

Lin Yuan's heart froze. The City Protecting Grand Array had just broken, yet two people ignored the other battle groups and charged straight toward him, their target so clear it was as if his name was carved on his forehead.

He exchanged a look with Xue Linglong beside him and instantly made a decision.

"Split up and meet at Tianyuan City!"

"Be careful!" Xue Linglong gave him a deep look, acted decisively, and transformed into a bloody Escape Light, speeding away in another direction.

In a moment, those two Escape Lights were already close to Lin Yuan.

He cursed inwardly: "Holy shit, one day as husband and wife is equivalent to a hundred days of grace, but this Yue Qingyao... she's truly ruthless!"

He didn't need to think; these two must have been sent by Yue Qingyao to take his life.

He changed the direction of his Escape Light without any panic, darting precisely into the chaotic alleyways of the city like a slippery loach, flying rapidly along the route he had previously rehearsed.

It must be said that his caution played a crucial role at this time. By scouting locations beforehand, he perfectly avoided several areas of fierce fighting and the direction where the Misty Immortal Sect experts were gathered.

Although stray Spells flew randomly along the way, he did not encounter any serious obstruction.

He pushed the speed of the light feather boat to the extreme, transforming into an inconspicuous gray light, and flashed out through the defensive gap in the northwest corner of the city that he had previously selected.

However, the two Escape Lights behind him were like maggots clinging to bone; their speed was not slow at all, especially the aura of the Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator among them, which remained firmly locked onto him.

Even after flying more than ten miles outside the city, they were still pursuing him, clearly determined not to give up until they captured him.

"I can't shake them off." Lin Yuan frowned slightly, a murderous intent flashing in his heart. "If that's the case, I'll just have to kill them!"

Being chased by a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator for a long time introduced too many variables; he had to finish this quickly!

Only then did he have the time to glance back.

That glance made him chuckle.

Who else could the female Cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage be but Zhou Waner, who had previously contributed a good number of attribute points and heavenly heart jade marrow?

"Heh... this little girl's Cultivation progress is quite fast; she's already at the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage."

"However... I have recovered my youthful appearance, and my aura is completely different. This girl probably hasn't recognized me. Otherwise... she would probably be kneeling and calling me Master right now."

The God-Sealing Technique he had planted back then could instantly destroy Zhou Waner's Divine Soul with just a single thought.

As for the other black-clothed female Cultivator in the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, Lin Yuan merely glanced at her and formed a plan. With his current Divine Path Foundation Establishment Foundation, in a one-on-one fight, he wouldn't necessarily crush her, but he had at least a seventy percent chance of victory.

As long as no Core Formation Stage Cultivators chased after him, he had nothing to worry about today.

Thinking this, he felt completely calm.

After escaping another hundred miles forward, completely distancing himself from the Black Stone City battlefield, Lin Yuan estimated that there would be no reinforcements, so he unhurriedly stopped his Escape Light and hovered above a dark, dense forest.

He turned around and leisurely watched the two women pursuing him, a signature mischievous smile hanging on his face.

"Two Fairies, chasing me so relentlessly, could it be that you find this humble student handsome and wish to explore the mysteries of the Great Dao with me in this wilderness?"

Zhou Waner and Sang Zhi positioned themselves one in front and one behind, sandwiching him between them.

Hearing this familiar yet frivolous tone, Zhou Waner's cold, pretty face suddenly froze, and for the first time, a look of shock and uncertainty appeared in her eyes as she looked at Lin Yuan.

That voice, that tone, that damnable gaze... For a moment, she felt an indescribable sense of familiarity with this handsome young man before her, a shiver originating from the depths of her Soul.

Slowly, a withered, old face with murky eyes gradually overlapped in her mind with the handsome, mischievously smiling face before her.

Zhou Waner's heart violently shook, as if struck by lightning!

Fine cold sweat instantly seeped out onto her pale forehead, and her heart pounded uncontrollably.

"He... is it him?"

A thought that made her spine crawl grew wildly, yet she found it utterly absurd.

Her rapid progress was due to Cultivating a secret technique during the Qi Refinement Stage, allowing for a massive accumulation of power.

But the man before her had an aura as deep as the sea; she couldn't see through him. How could he be that old fellow whose Lifespan was nearly exhausted?

But... the auras of the two people, that particular scent seemingly emanating from the depths of the Soul, were indeed so similar!

"Junior Sister, attack!"

Sang Zhi, dressed in black, did not have as many thoughts as Zhou Waner. Seeing Lin Yuan stop, a murderous glint flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Waner was startled awake by her shout, forcefully suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and summoned her Magical Artifact.

Lin Yuan watched their movements, grinned, and showed a mouthful of white teeth: "Perfect! I'll use you two to test out my new treasure!"

He slapped his waist, and a palm-sized, jet-black gourd carved with ancient cloud patterns appeared in his hand.

This gourd was precisely the Sword Nurturing Gourd that Li Xinghe had given him as compensation after he helped refine the corpse spirit blood core.

Lin Yuan injected his magic power into it and gently patted the mouth of the gourd.

"Pffft!"

With a soft sound, brilliant rays of light burst forth from the gourd's mouth. Amidst the flowing radiance, six glittering Flying Swords floated before him.

These six Flying Swords were identical in style, emitting the astonishing fluctuations of supreme grade Magical Artifacts. Their Sword Qi was chilling and their sharpness unmatched. Even more terrifyingly, their auras were perfectly unified, as if they were naturally a set.

Although they were called six Flying Swords, they were actually more like one supremely powerful composite Magical Artifact!

The moment she saw these six Flying Swords, Sang Zhi, who was about to attack, involuntarily held her breath. For the first time, her sharp eyes revealed a look of gravity and shock.

A set of six supreme grade Flying Sword Magical Artifacts—this was unheard of throughout the Six Kingdoms of the Eastern Domain!

The power of such set Magical Artifacts was far more than simple addition; they complemented each other, causing their might to multiply exponentially.

This could no longer be counted as a Magical Artifact; it was practically half a step into the threshold of a Magic Treasure!

Lin Yuan had no interest in admiring their shock. He formed Hand Seals and shouted softly:

"Heavenly Waterfall Sword Rain!"

The moment his voice fell, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi seemed to be drawn by an invisible, terrifying force, transforming into visible vortices that frantically converged toward him!
