Chapter 56 The Mighty Body Unleashed
Lin Yue stared intently at Xuan Chenzi's hideous face, the killing intent in his eyes growing more intense.
He roared, "Do you think you can destroy my Medicine Garden and harm my Dao Companion with just a broken sword?"
Before his voice had even faded, Lin Yue suddenly raised his hand, his left hand quickly condensing a wisp of Green Fire Sword Intent.
This wisp of Green Fire Sword Intent was no ordinary Sword Intent; it was a Heaven-Burning Sword Intent seed that Su Qingyuan had given back to him.
At this moment, Lin Yue infused Ten Thousand Jun Force into it, instantly stimulating this Sword Intent to its limit. The Green Fire Sword Intent transformed into a foot-long blade of green fire, stabbing directly at Xuan Chenzi's sword-wielding wrist!
Xuan Chenzi hadn't expected Lin Yue to be able to counterattack and hurriedly pulled back his sword to parry.
But just as he moved, Lin Yue's right fist smashed forward with Ten Thousand Jun Force, the surface of his fist glowing with a faint golden spiritual light, appearing even more domineering than when he had shattered the azure gold stone earlier.
There were no flourishes to this punch, yet it accurately slammed onto the spine of the xuantian sword—
"Clang!"
The deafening sound of metal meeting stone shook the entire Medicine Garden. Xuan Chenzi felt a massive force travel up the sword hilt, making his wrist bones feel as if they were about to be shattered.
The xuantian sword was actually knocked upward by the punch. The sword qi grazed Lin Yue's shoulder and struck the stone fence of the spirit field behind him, splitting it in two with a "crack."
"How can your strength be so great?!" Xuan Chenzi was both shocked and furious. He wanted to withdraw the sword to stab again, only to find that Lin Yue's left hand had already clamped onto the blade.
The golden light of the prajna divine armor spread rapidly from Lin Yue's fingertips like surging waves, covering the entire xuantian sword in the blink of an eye.
The golden light seemed to have a life of its own as it moved across the sword, eventually condensing into a faint golden film that tightly enveloped the blade.
Under the coverage of this golden film, the Xuantian Spirit-Eroding Rune, which had been flickering with an eerie light, instantly lost its luster and became dim, even its faint glow fading further.
"This divine armor... can actually suppress a Magical Artifact?" Xuan Chenzi's face was filled with shock. His eyes widened as he watched everything unfold in disbelief.
He had never imagined that the prajna divine armor would have such a miraculous effect, being able to suppress the high-grade Magical Artifact xuantian sword in his hand.
Fear and panic instantly welled up in his heart. Xuan Chenzi wanted to let go of the hilt and retreat.
However, Lin Yue's fingers were like iron pincers, firmly gripping the spine of the sword, making it impossible for him to break free.
Not only that, a steady stream of Ten Thousand Jun Force was flowing through Lin Yue's fingertips into the xuantian sword.
With a crisp "crack," the spine of the xuantian sword was actually forced into a shallow indentation by this immense strength!
This was a high-grade Magical Artifact! An ordinary Cultivator, even using all their strength, would find it difficult to leave even a scratch on the blade, let alone leave a mark on the hard spine.
Yet, Lin Yue had achieved this nearly impossible feat with just one hand.
Before Xuan Chenzi could recover from his shock, Lin Yue's right fist lashed out again like lightning.
This punch carried the momentum of a thunderbolt, smashing directly toward Xuan Chenzi's chest!
"Pfft!"
The Ten Thousand Jun Force was unleashed without reservation. Under the impact of this powerful force, Xuan Chenzi's protective spiritual light was as fragile as paper, shattering instantly.
Xuan Chenzi's body flew backward uncontrollably like a kite with a broken string, slamming hard into the stone gate of the Medicine Garden.
With a loud "boom," the incredibly thick stone gate was actually smashed to pieces by such a violent impact.
Xuan Chenzi's chest was caved in, and seven or eight of his ribs were already broken. His spiritual power also completely dissipated in that instant, unable to be condensed again.
The xuantian sword in his hand also fell to the ground with a "clang" as it lost its master's control. The blade, which had been flickering with eerie light, now seemed to have lost its life, its glow completely extinguished.
Lin Yue stood not far away, looking coldly at Xuan Chenzi.
Xuan Chenzi still wanted to summon his Flying Sword, but Lin Yue stepped forward and stomped his foot onto the xuantian sword.
No matter how Xuan Chenzi tried to circulate his spiritual power, the xuantian sword remained firmly pinned under Lin Yue's foot, unable to move at all.
Seeing this, Xuan Chenzi grew even more anxious, struggling desperately and trying to control the sword to break free from Lin Yue's restraint.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not change the current situation.
Just then, Lin Yue suddenly raised his fist and smashed it down hard onto the junction of the xuantian sword's hilt and blade!
This punch, carrying Ten Thousand Jun Force, shattered the Talisman Array on the xuantian sword, making it impossible for it to gather even a shred of spiritual power.
"My xuantian sword!" Xuan Chenzi's eyes nearly split from rage. That was a high-grade Magical Artifact bestowed by Elder Wu, yet it had been shattered by the opponent's Physical Body strength!
He charged at Lin Yue like a madman, his fists condensing earth-element spiritual power, striking with the pressure of the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.
Lin Yue sneered, the golden light of the prajna divine armor surging. He sidestepped Xuan Chenzi's fist and, condensing Ten Thousand Jun Force in his right hand, smashed it hard into Xuan Chenzi's chest.
With a crisp "crack," Xuan Chenzi was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the stone ridge of the spirit field and spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
Seeing the murderous light in Lin Yue's eyes as he approached step by step, he couldn't help but scream, "I came here on the orders of Elder Wu..."
Lin Yue didn't listen at all, stepping directly onto Xuan Chenzi's chest, his voice as cold as ice: "You destroyed my Medicine Garden, injured my wife, and you still want to use Elder Wu to pressure me? Today, I will cripple you and see who else dares to provoke me!"
"Stop!"
A powerful wave of spiritual energy suddenly came from the mountain gate, and a Cultivator dressed in silver-patterned robes landed in the East Mountain Medicine Garden. This person was none other than Elder Wu's Personal Disciple, Zhu Wang!
His cultivation had already reached the Foundation Establishment Middle-to-Late Stage, and the earth-element spiritual power around him was as solid as heavy iron. As soon as he arrived, he emitted a suffocating pressure.
Zhu Wang glanced at Xuan Chenzi on the ground and then looked at Lin Yue, an arrogant smirk curling on his lips. "Lin Yue, you have engaged in private combat with a fellow disciple and destroyed a high-grade Magical Artifact; you have committed a great taboo of the Sect! Elder Wu has ordered that Luo Ningshuang is a remnant of Baicao Valley, and Su Qingyuan and A He have aided the wicked. Today, I will take these three back to the Alchemy Room for interrogation. If you interfere, you will be making an enemy of Elder Wu!"
"Even a Sect Elder has no right to take my wife away!" Lin Yue slowly stood tall, the golden light of the prajna divine armor growing even brighter as Ten Thousand Jun Force circulated within his body. "If you want to take them, you'll have to step over my corpse first!"
"Stubborn fool!" Killing intent surged in Zhu Wang's eyes. He raised his hand and condensed the "Thick Earth Art · Mountain-Suppressing Spirit Return," and several chunks of azure gold stone protruded from the ground, carrying the spiritual power of the Foundation Establishment Middle-to-Late Stage, and crushed toward Lin Yue.
Lin Yue stepped heavily on Xuan Chenzi's face, using the force to leap into the air. His right fist condensed Heaven-Burning Sword Intent, smashing fiercely into the azure gold stones, shattering them into pieces that flew in all directions!
Poor Xuan Chenzi's head was stomped directly into the dirt, his fate unknown.
