Ling Tian Sword God

"Heavenly Serpent Formation? Interesting."

The Demonic Beast Elder's expression was dismissive; he clearly underestimated the Lin Family's Array Formation.

"If you choose the path of death over the path of life, then I have no choice."

A cold light filled the Demonic Beast Elder's eyes, and a chilling killing intent spread across his face.

"Demonic Beast Elder! These are all the Experts the Lin Family has. Don't kill them all, or I'll end up being a Family Head with no followers."

Seeing this, Lin Ba quickly stepped in front of the Demonic Beast Elder and laughed awkwardly.

"With the support of my Myriad Beasts Sect, cultivating a group of loyal Experts for your Ling Family would be effortless. Out of my way!"

The Demonic Beast Elder swatted Lin Ba aside with a wave of his hand. He then roared, his body trembling. In the next moment, a black bear phantom seemed to emerge from his body, soaring towards Lin Tianxiong like a gust of wind.

"Stop it!"

The Lin Family Experts all attacked. A massive Three-headed Serpent phantom rapidly collided with the black bear phantom.

HMPH!

The two phantoms dissipated almost simultaneously, but the attacking Lin Family Experts turned deathly pale. It was clear they had suffered internal injuries in that brief exchange.

"Let's see how long your pathetic Array Formation can last!"

The Demonic Beast Elder looked utterly confident. He circulated his True Qi and simultaneously struck out to his sides with both palms. The powerful Palm Power transformed into two tiger heads, each emitting a heaven-shaking roar as they shot forth.

BANG! BANG!

The two impacts caused the Lin Family's Grand Formation to tremble violently, looking as if it might collapse at any moment.

It seems the Lin Family can only hold out for a short while. The Array Formation will soon be broken. Ling Chen observed. He could tell that the Heavenly Serpent Formation was powerful, but with Lin Tianxiong, who was sustaining the Grand Formation, severely injured, it couldn't display its full might. It could only defend passively, lacking any offensive power. At this rate, being breached was only a matter of time.

"Quite resilient, but this is where it ends."

The Demonic Beast Elder's eyes narrowed. He suddenly whistled. A sharp gust of wind sounded as a massive, bear-shaped Demonic Beast charged into the Great Formation from outside. With a swipe of its paw, it sent two Lin Family Experts flying. The spots where they were struck caved in deeply, leaving them struggling for their lives.

"A Third Grade Intermediate Exotic Beast, an Earth Demon Bear?"

Lin Tianxiong and the others were shocked. This Demonic Beast was unmistakably a Third Grade Intermediate Exotic Beast.

"'This is this old man's treasure,' the Demonic Beast Elder cackled. 'Today, anyone who resists will become food for this great treasure of mine!'"

His figure suddenly flickered, and in the next instant, he appeared before Lin Tianxiong and the others. A palm, imbued with immense black Palm Power, viciously slammed down.

Lin Tianxiong and the other Lin Family Experts naturally wouldn't sit idly by and await their doom. They also attacked, their True Qi converging to form a massive Palm Seal.

BANG!

The two Palm Seals collided. In the next moment, Lin Tianxiong and the others were sent flying, spitting blood.

"Hehehe, this perfect three-headed serpent bloodline is mine!"

Having shattered the Lin Family's Heavenly Serpent Formation, the Demonic Beast Elder shot upwards, utilizing his Light Skill. He bypassed the Lin Family members and darted towards the Bloodline Pool.

Dammit! His target is Lin Yu! Lin Tianxiong's expression changed drastically. Undoubtedly, the Demonic Beast Elder's target was Lin Yu, who possessed the perfect three-headed serpent bloodline. No one else was worthy of his attention.

The Demonic Beast Elder grinned. With this perfect three-headed serpent bloodline, I'll bring it back to the Myriad Beasts Sect for thorough research. Then, My Beast Gate will surely develop a method to perfectly integrate human and beast bloodlines! The Myriad Beasts Sect's current methods of refining beast blood had significant flaws and severe side effects on the body. Lin Yu's perfect three-headed serpent bloodline, however, seemed to have no such side effects. If they could master this method, the Myriad Beasts Sect's strength would inevitably rise significantly.

In the blink of an eye, the Demonic Beast Elder had reached the edge of the Bloodline Pool. He suddenly extended his hand, reaching for Lin Yu within the pool.

However, just a moment before his palm touched Lin Yu, an astonishingly strong repulsive force burst from Lin Yu's body. The Three-headed Serpent phantom in mid-air suddenly turned and snapped at the Demonic Beast Elder.

"Just activated your bloodline, and you already want to challenge me?" the Demonic Beast Elder sneered, his face contorting into a derisive grin. He immediately shook his body, and Black True Qi surged out, covering both his arms and transforming them into furry bear paws. Evidently, he had achieved a certain degree of Beastification.

THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!

The Demonic Beast Elder's hands continuously pounded the Three-headed Serpent phantom. Despite the phantom's size, its master, Lin Yu, was merely a Fifth Level Martial Artist. The disparity in strength between Lin Yu and the Demonic Beast Elder was far too great.

"Kid, your life is mine to take!"

At this moment, on the other side of the plaza, Lin Ba's gaze locked onto Ling Chen. Ling Chen was currently in a weakened state, presenting the perfect opportunity to strike a fatal blow.

As his words fell, Lin Ba lunged at Ling Chen. His hand formed a palm knife, which he violently chopped down towards Ling Chen's head.

THUD!

Ling Chen blocked Lin Ba's palm knife with his Cloud-hidden Sword, but the impact sent him stumbling back over ten meters.

"'You barely managed to survive, yet you don't cherish your life?' Ling Chen said, his expression remarkably calm as he stabilized himself and faced Lin Ba, whose eyes were filled with killing intent. 'Must you throw it away again?'"

"Haha, in your current state, you think you're qualified to say that to me!" Lin Ba roared with laughter, his face full of derision. "You're at death's door and still trying to act tough in front of me? Let me send you on your way!"

Sharp laughter echoed across the plaza. Lin Ba once again channeled his True Qi and charged, aiming to kill Ling Chen. Clearly, he wouldn't stop until Ling Chen was dead.

Facing Lin Ba's renewed assault, Ling Chen's expression hardened. He decisively plunged the Cloud-hidden Sword into the ground before him and swiftly unsheathed the Heavenly Emperor Heavy Sword.

Retreating sharply, Ling Chen extended his left hand and swiped his middle finger across the Heavenly Emperor Heavy Sword. A smear of crimson blood scattered into the air.

Currently, Ling Chen couldn't use the Ancient Saint King Battle Technique again. This Secret Method consumed a vast amount of energy, making consecutive use impossible. Each use required a recovery period before it could be employed again.

Therefore, Ling Chen had no choice but to take a desperate risk: using his own blood to stimulate the latent power of the Heavenly Emperor Heavy Sword for a fight to the death.

SIZZLE! SIZZLE!

The moment his blood touched the Heavenly Emperor Heavy Sword, it instantly soaked into the blade. In the next instant, a surge of blood-red Energy erupted from the Heavenly Emperor Heavy Sword and flowed into Ling Chen's body through his palm.

Instantly, a blood-red glint appeared in Ling Chen's eyes, rapidly intensifying and spreading!
