133: Chapter 133 Domain Suppression, a Dramatic Show of Mutual Tearing

Lin Yuan had just steadied himself when the massive, early seventh-rank land dragon opposite him began madly stamping its four thick hooves. Lowering its head, it charged towards him with savage force.

Its round, bulky body and thick carapace made it look like a small tank...

Lin Yuan slowly raised his palm and pressed it directly onto the dragon's bald forehead. The land dragon instantly felt as if it had crashed into a great mountain, its head spinning, a bit dazed.

But the next second, its eyes turned crimson red once more as it began writhing its body frantically, trying to break free from the control of Lin Yuan's hand.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan abruptly exerted force with his palm, pressing down. "Stop fussing, behave yourself."

BOOM!!

The land dragon splayed all four limbs and collapsed flat on the ground. The crimson fury vanished from its eyes, replaced by a look of utter innocence...

At that moment, the land dragon was almost in tears. Why was its luck so bad? It had just emerged and immediately run into such a freakish human.

Just who is the savage beast here, me or you?...

With Lin Yuan's foundational combat power having reached the Great Sect level, dealing with an early seventh-rank savage beast was as easy and pleasant as petting a cat.

But he wasn't in a hurry to kill this land dragon. It was an important cast member. Once the audience arrived, it still needed to cooperate with him in putting on a show...

Indeed.

A few minutes later, three figures crept into his surroundings. Lin Yuan immediately curved the corner of his mouth, withdrawing the hand that had been pressing on the land dragon's head.

Feeling control suddenly lifted, the land dragon excitedly rammed its head towards Lin Yuan, who raised his arms to meet the charge.

BOOM!!

Accompanied by a tremendous crash, Lin Yuan's feet scraped across the ground for over a dozen meters before he barely managed to steady his teetering form.

His hands hung down weakly, and he panted heavily, his breath extremely unsteady...

"My acting skills are Oscar-worthy, truly excellent. They should believe it now, shouldn't they? Still not coming out?" Lin Yuan thought to himself. "Do I really have to cough up some blood..."

Just as Lin Yuan prepared to take another hit from the land dragon, two figures could no longer restrain themselves and directly revealed themselves.

The newcomers were a Middle-aged man and a black-clad elder. Judging by their auras, the Middle-aged man was likely mid-seventh rank, while the black-clad elder was at the peak of the seventh rank.

"To kill me, you've really put in the effort. Why is there still one person not showing themselves?" Lin Yuan thought silently.

Lin Yuan glanced at the two and immediately clasped his fists. "You two, could you lend a hand? This land dragon is quite troublesome."

"Hahahaha... Lin Yuan, what wishful thinking is that? Can't you tell we're here to kill you?" the Middle-aged man sneered.

"Kill me? Who are you? Why do you want to kill me? Aren't you afraid of the military's sanctions?"

Lin Yuan endured another charge from the land dragon and spoke with feigned panic.

"Lin Yuan, we'll let you die an informed death. We're from the Mercenary Guild. Was it you who killed Minister Luan's son?" the Middle-aged man demanded.

"Yes, it was me. He was a beast who deserved to die! No need to come all this way to thank me," Lin Yuan said with a half-smile.

"Good, good, good! You really dare to admit it. Then don't blame us for being ruthless. Attack!" the black-clad elder shouted.

The Middle-aged man immediately revealed a cruel smile. A pair of crescent-moon-shaped daggers appeared in his hands, and his figure vanished into thin air—an invisibility ability.

The black-clad elder also drew a black curved blade, charging towards Lin Yuan to attack.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan gave a cold laugh. Enough playing around, time to get serious.

He sent a palm strike that shattered the land dragon's brain. The land dragon immediately collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

At that moment, a curved blade came slicing down towards his face. Lin Yuan's swimming dragon sword abruptly left its sheath, thrusting upwards into the air.

CLANG!!

After a crisp metallic ring, the elder was forced back several steps. He could barely hold onto his curved blade, the energy in his chest churning violently. Blood involuntarily seeped from the corner of his mouth.

He stared in shock at Lin Yuan, who hadn't moved an inch. "Impossible! I'm a peak grandmaster. Even if you are a grandmaster, someone as young as you couldn't possibly be this strong..."

Lin Yuan had managed to climb to the tenth floor of the Martial God Tower. Minister Luan had already estimated his strength highly, which was precisely why he had sent these two.

"Old Bastard, nothing's impossible. You've just never seen it before, that's all," Lin Yuan said with a disdainful smile.

Suddenly,

a sinister dagger stabbed towards his back. Lin Yuan snorted coldly. Without even turning his head, he swung a backhand slap.

SMACK!!

The Middle-aged man, who had been in an invisible state, instantly received a resounding slap on the cheek. The force directly knocked him out of his invisibility, sending him flying out in a wretched heap.

When he landed face-down on the ground, he was utterly bewildered. Spitting out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth, he slurred,

"How could you possibly find my position! I was invisible!"

"You probably haven't bathed in ten years. The moment you got close, I smelled a foul stench. Really damn disgusting..." Lin Yuan said with a look of disgust, shaking his hand.

"You!..." The Middle-aged man was so enraged he felt like vomiting blood.

With his spatial ability and powerful spiritual sense, how could Lin Yuan fail to detect the spatial fluctuations around him?

"We really underestimated you. However, you still have to die!"

The black-clad elder gave a cold laugh. Immediately, faint black mist began to swirl around him.

Lin Yuan instantly felt chilling winds gusting around him. The ground beneath his feet seemed to transform into a black purgatory, with ghostly hands constantly reaching out, frantically tugging at his legs.

It slowed his speed slightly. Meanwhile, the black-clad elder's aura grew even stronger, and black mist coiled around his body as well.

"A dark-type domain? Has effects of boosting combat power and slowing enemies. Not bad," Lin Yuan commented indifferently.

The Middle-aged man, still on the ground, vanished from sight again, preparing for another sneak attack.

"Haha... How is it? Is my domain powerful? Now surrender obediently and die!"

The black-clad elder laughed triumphantly. Gripping his curved blade, he charged forward again. When he reached Lin Yuan, he leaped high into the air, bringing his blade down with both hands.

At that very moment, a dagger stabbed towards Lin Yuan's side, aiming for his waist.

But that wasn't all. The sound of whistling wind reached his ears. A metallic hook, trailing a long chain, shot through the air, aiming to grab the back of Lin Yuan's head.

The one hiding in the shadows had finally made a move. Lin Yuan gave a cold smile. Finally couldn't hold back, huh? I've been waiting for you!

"Slaughter Domain, open!!"

Lin Yuan let out a low shout. His eyes instantly transformed into swirling vortexes of crimson. Blood-red light enveloped his body, and the surrounding space turned into a sea of blood.

The three immediately felt as if their feet were stuck in a quagmire. The power within their bodies was instantly suppressed. The air around them filled with soul-shaking screams and roars, causing the murderous intent in their hearts to surge uncontrollably.

Lin Yuan's figure flickered, instantly teleporting away from his original spot. The attacks of the three all landed on empty air.

"Wh-what kind of domain is this? Why has my domain failed?!" the black-clad elder cried out in terror, looking around.

"Mine too! I can't activate my domain at all!"

The one who had suddenly revealed herself—an old woman holding a skeletal staff—also spoke in panic. She was also a peak grandmaster expert. The hook from earlier had been her attack.

"This is domain suppression!" the black-clad elder blurted out.

Hearing this, the Middle-aged man paled in shock. Domain suppression meant a higher-level domain could restrict a lower-level one, even rendering the opponent's domain completely ineffective.

His main method of attack relied on sneak attacks, and his domain enhanced his speed. Now, not only could he not activate his domain, but his speed was also suppressed. He couldn't exert his strength at all.

"What grade is his domain? It actually made all three of our domains fail completely. Just what kind of monster is he?" the Middle-aged man muttered in disbelief.

"Fight him with everything we've got!"

The old woman let out a low roar, taking the lead by flinging her hook. Her skeletal staff immediately flashed with purple light. Two undead ghouls crawled out from the ground, charging towards Lin Yuan.

She knew dragging things out was disadvantageous for them. Only a swift, decisive battle, with the three combining their strength to crush him directly.

The black-clad elder and the Middle-aged man also attacked simultaneously.

"Killing them is simple, but it would be hard to explain to the military. However, if they die from killing each other... well, that has nothing to do with me."

Lin Yuan gave a mocking smile. Within his domain, he began teleporting. All he needed to do was stall for a little time, waiting for the Slaughter Domain to erode their minds.

To turn them into killing machines, putting on a mutual slaughter show...
