Fei Mu Shi Miao
Immediately, he turned his left fist into a palm and struck out. Accompanied by the sound of tearing through the air, the palm shadow slammed solidly into that Soul Transformation Initial Stage Disciple.
"Bang!"
The Soul Transformation Disciple flew backward, crashing into the wall behind him, his chest caving in significantly.
It was obvious that Lin Heng had held back; otherwise, that Soul Transformation Direct Disciple would already be dead.
Lin Heng's gaze was indifferent. If there weren't so many people here, he absolutely would not have spared this person's life.
Lin Heng's sudden outburst shocked everyone present.
The Soul Transformation Initial Stage Disciple lay on the ground, coughing violently, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Lin Heng.
He hadn't expected the opponent to break through in a desperate situation and erupt with such formidable combat power.
The contempt and arrogance on Mu Shimiao's Face froze instantly, replaced by gloom.
Yue Zheng Xingzhi, in his arms, also widened her beautiful eyes, her Face full of disbelief.
The Cultivators watching outside the cave were in an uproar.
"A Breakthrough! Perfected Nascent Soul Stage!"
"Such fast speed! Such a sharp spear technique!"
"He hid it so well! To think he actually broke through in the middle of battle!"
Seeing that her brother not only recovered from his injuries but also broke through to the Perfected Nascent Soul Stage, and even heavily injured the Soul Transformation Initial Stage Disciple in one move, Lin Xue immediately broke into a smile through her tears. She excitedly grabbed Chen Yuan's arm: "Brother Chen, my brother has broken through!"
Chen Yuan smiled slightly and nodded.
Just now, it was because he sensed the anomaly in the jade pendant on Lin Heng and the vast energy accumulated within his body that he held back and did not act immediately.
It seems this brother-in-law is also someone blessed with Opportunity and Luck; this jade pendant seems capable of drawing upon Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in desperate situations to help him break through.
As a hardcore fan of web novels in his past life, he guessed that perhaps an old grandfather or some beautiful Revered Master lived inside it.
In the arena,
"Trash!" Mu Shimiao looked at his fallen companion, his Face livid, feeling as if his Face had been ruthlessly slapped.
He shoved Yue Zheng Xingzhi away from his arms, and the powerful pressure of his Late Stage Soul Transformation erupted without reservation, crushing toward Lin Heng like a mountain.
"Lin Heng! How dare you hurt my people! It seems that if I don't give you a profound lesson today, you won't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
Before the words faded, Mu Shimiao moved, fast as a ghost, appearing instantly in front of Lin Heng and striking out with a palm.
The palm wind was sharp, making the air explode with noise; clearly, he intended to completely cripple Lin Heng, who had just broken through and whose aura had not yet fully stabilized!
Lin Heng's expression changed, and at this critical moment,
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Heng and also struck out with a palm.
"Boom!"
The two palms met, emitting a dull, thunderous sound.
A violent shockwave of Spiritual Qi swept out from the center of the two, scraping off a layer of the ground.
Mu Shimiao felt as if he had been ruthlessly struck by a mountain, his entire body stumbling backward uncontrollably!
One step, two steps, three steps... He retreated over a dozen steps before barely stabilizing his figure.
At this moment, his blood and Qi were surging within him, his Face filled with terror and disbelief!
His arm, which had clashed palms with Chen Yuan, was trembling slightly, and a sensation of numbness kept coming from it.
Silence!
Dead silence!
Inside and outside the cave, everyone who saw this scene widened their eyes and opened their mouths wide.
Mu Shimiao was a famous Genius in the Great Thousand Domain, a Late Stage Soul Transformation Great Cultivator.
And this person who suddenly appeared? Judging by his aura, he seemed to be at the Late Nascent Soul stage, just like Lin Heng earlier.
A Late Nascent Soul stage Cultivator, pushing back a Late Stage Soul Transformation Cultivator with one palm?!
This had completely overturned their understanding!
It was not as if there were no Geniuses who could challenge those of a higher level, but crossing an entire major Realm was unheard of!
"Hiss... I... I didn't see that wrong, did I?"
"Mu Shimiao... was pushed back?"
"Who is this person? What kind of monster is he? Can a Late Nascent Soul stage Cultivator have this kind of strength?"
Most of the Cultivators watching outside the cave were Loose Cultivators, mostly middle-aged, some even with graying temples.
Only one Nascent Soul Loose Cultivator, who now also looked middle-aged, had entered this Secret Realm at the cutoff of the three-thousand-year age limit.
Chen Yuan simply used a bit of his Divine Sense to obscure the senses of this group of Loose Cultivators, allowing them to see his silhouette but not his Face.
Lin Xue, Ye Baixi, and the other women found this normal and were long accustomed to it.
However, this scene made Lin Heng's heart surge, giving him a brand-new understanding of Chen Yuan's strength.
"Your brother-in-law is extraordinary. No need to think about it, he is definitely a Prodigy Disciple from the Divine Province." The beautiful Revered Master inside Lin Heng's ring suddenly spoke in his Sea of Consciousness.
She had already sensed that the vast Spiritual Qi within Chen Yuan was not in the least inferior to the Soul Transformation Stage.
"I consumed too much energy just now and need to sleep for a while. Hurry up and cling to his thigh; with him around, you can successfully complete this Secret Realm trip." After saying this, Lin Heng's Revered Master fell silent.
Without his Revered Master telling him, Lin Heng was already prepared to cling to that thigh.
Initially, he wanted to train alone because his Revered Master was there, but now that his Revered Master was gone, he had to cling tightly to this big, thick thigh of his brother-in-law.
Yue Zheng Xingzhi covered her mouth, looking at Chen Yuan in disbelief.
Mu Shimiao felt the surrounding gazes of shock, doubt, and even slight mockery, which made him want to go mad with shame and anger.
"Little bastard! I want you dead!"
He roared, no longer caring about any camaraderie among fellow Disciples.
Kill Chen Yuan, then kill everyone present, and no one would know he had done it.
In full view of everyone, his Late Stage Soul Transformation Spiritual Qi erupted completely, and he immediately sacrificed a long sword glowing with cold light.
The long sword slowly emerged from behind his back.
This was his trump card, a Purple Mansion Divine Ability.
The long sword fell into his hand, and as he chanted a spiritual incantation,
It turned into a beam of cold light, stabbing straight at Chen Yuan's Dantian!
This sword strike was clearly aimed at crippling Chen Yuan's cultivation!
"Stubborn and unyielding."
Chen Yuan's eyes turned cold. Facing this sharp sword strike, he did not dodge or evade. He pressed his fingers together like a sword and tapped with his fingertip. A purple sword gleam slashed out from his fingertip, accompanied by the roar of a Thunder Dragon, meeting that cold-light sword strike.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, that Divine Ability long sword shattered inch by inch, as if it were made of paper!
Mu Shimiao suffered a backlash in an instant, vomiting blood.
And Chen Yuan's lightning sword strike, its momentum undiminished, slashed onto his Dantian.
"Ah!" Mu Shimiao let out a shrill scream, flying backward, spraying blood, and slammed heavily against the cave wall, his aura instantly withering to the extreme!
He felt that his Dantian had cracked, and his cultivation was plummeting rapidly, dropping directly from the Late Stage Soul Transformation to the Early Soul Transformation Stage, and it still had a trend of continuing to fall!
Chen Yuan was going to completely cripple him!
"No! You cannot cripple me!" Mu Shimiao felt his cultivation slipping away and, terrified, shouted fiercely yet weakly:
"Chen Yuan! You are harming a fellow Disciple! So many Fellow Daoists outside are watching! If you dare to cripple me, the Sect will never forgive you! You will definitely be expelled from the Xuantian Sect!"
He tried to use the Sect's rules and external public opinion to blackmail Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan heard this and paused, his gaze calmly sweeping toward the terrified Loose Cultivators and Disciples of other factions at the cave entrance.
Everyone swept by his gaze trembled all over, subconsciously lowering their heads.
The highest-cultivation Early Nascent Soul Stage Loose Cultivator hurriedly waved his hands, saying in a dry voice:
"Fellow... Fellow Daoist, please understand! We... we saw nothing today! We heard nothing!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We were just passing by!"
"Mu Shimiao... he suffered Qi Deviation while training by himself!"
