117: Chapter 117 What joke are you telling?

"Is Junior Brother Lin really this strong?"

A Disciple watched the battle on the stage; for a moment, he could barely make out the figures of the two men.

"Nonsense, didn't you see it before? Senior Brother Lin defeated Senior Sister Ke and Senior Brother Liu."

Another Disciple said.

"There's no doubt that Junior Brother Lin already has the combat power of the Spirit Treasury Realm."

"Junior Brother Lin is only a cultivator at the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Platform Realm, yet he has the combat power of the Spirit Treasury Realm. Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"

"It is indeed a bit exaggerated, but it's not like there haven't been people even more extraordinary than Junior Brother Lin."

"Exactly. Don't forget that when the Sect Master was at the Spirit Platform Fourth Heaven, he killed a cultivator of the Spirit Treasury Realm."

"And Peak Master Yunhua—it's said she also killed a Spirit Treasury Realm cultivator when she was at roughly the Spirit Platform Fourth Heaven."

"In other words, does Lin Ming have Nirvana Potential?"

"Most likely. Don't forget, Lin Ming is Peak Master Yunhua's Disciple."

In an instant, Lin Ming had already become a cultivator with Nirvana Potential in everyone's eyes.

"Nirvana? Is it really that easy to reach?"

Hearing the crowd's discussion, Senior Chai Li let out a cold snort.

He admitted that Lin Ming's combat power was indeed very strong; to erupt with such power at the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Platform Realm was enough to call him a Prodigy.

This even gave him some thoughts he shouldn't have had.

But he quickly cleared those thoughts from his mind.

Lin You wouldn't lose; he hadn't even exerted his full strength yet.

"Freak."

Elder Mu Shan said, watching the scene on the stage.

This little fellow was indeed a bit of a freak.

Master Yun Hua, that big freak, had unknowingly raised a little freak.

And it wasn't even just one little freak; it was really quite something.

"I told you, this guy is definitely a freak."

Behind her, a Disciple of the Yongzhen Sect muttered softly.

They weren't surprised at all by Lin Ming's freakish performance; they even re-evaluated their impression of him once again.

The two figures collided at high speeds atop the high platform.

That Intent of the Blazing Sun attempted to break through Lin Ming's lightning and strike his body directly.

However, he found that his attacks could not break through the lightning and were all blocked outside.

He even began to avoid Lin Ming's attacks, whether intentionally or not.

This made Lin You gradually realize the danger Lin Ming posed to him.

But he certainly wouldn't admit it.

He would never acknowledge that a mere cultivator at the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Platform Realm could threaten him or defeat him.

This was something that absolutely would not and could not happen.

Thinking of this, a mysteriously cold and eerie aura emanated from his body.

Lin Ming instantly sensed this cold aura.

A Divine Soul attack.

This Yin Qi was an attack targeted at the Divine Soul.

"Yin and Yang? Is it the Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra?"

Lin Ming thought to himself.

The two diametrically opposed forces of Yin and Yang displayed by Lin You made Lin Ming instantly think of the Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra.

Regarding the Shangji Sect, he naturally knew they claimed to have inherited the Legacy of the Wuji Sect, and most of the Cultivation Techniques within their Sect came from the Wuji Sect.

This included the Wuji Yin-Yang Scripture that Lin You was using, though not everyone could learn the Wuji Yin-Yang Scripture.

Therefore, the Wuji Sect had split the Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra into the "Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra: Yang Chapter" and "Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra: Yin Chapter," separating the Daos of Yin and Yang for the Disciples to practice.

Lin Ming originally thought Lin You practiced the Yang Chapter, but when he felt both the Daos of Yin and Yang appearing on him simultaneously, he realized Lin You had learned the full Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra.

No wonder Senior Chai Li had been so full of confidence from the start.

It turned out such a Prodigy had appeared within their Sect.

"The Dao of Yin and Yang."

Su Lianxue said, watching the scene.

Her Divine Soul had naturally sensed the Dao of Yin and Yang emanating from Lin You.

A bit interesting.

This Lower Realm was becoming more and more interesting; even such a rare method involving the Dao of Yin and Yang had appeared.

A Divine Soul attack—an attack on the level of the Divine Soul blasted toward Lin Ming's Divine Soul.

Lin Ming, however, appeared extremely calm.

His Divine Thought moved at that moment, and an invisible force of Divine Thought constructed a line of defense, blocking all of Lin You's Divine Soul attacks.

Moreover, although the opponent's Divine Soul attack contained an extremely cold intent, it was ultimately unable to break through the defense Lin Ming had constructed, let alone invade Lin Ming's Divine Soul.

"What?"

Lin You soon noticed this.

His own Divine Soul attack had no effect on Lin Ming. One must know that this was a Divine Soul attack he had comprehended from his meticulous cultivation of the Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra.

Yet it had no effect on Lin Ming. Could it be that his Divine Soul strength surpassed his own, causing the Divine Soul attack to deal no damage?

No.

Lin You immediately cast that thought aside.

How strong could the Divine Soul of a mere cultivator at the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Platform Realm be?

He suspected that Old Ancestor Yun Hua had given Lin Ming some kind of Origin Weapon to protect his Divine Soul, preventing him from breaking through.

But his attacks did not stop there.

A domineering, scorching aura surged forth.

Lin You decided not to hold back against Lin Ming anymore; he determined to defeat Lin Ming as quickly as possible and end this match.

To that end, he displayed his full strength.

In response, the lightning in Lin Ming's hands also erupted; Yang Lightning surged, rushing restlessly.

The power of the Spirit Platform Realm was enough.

"Break."

Lin Ming gave a low shout.

His lightning gathered at a single point and, with swift momentum, directly pierced through the barrier and struck Lin You's body.

Caught off guard, Lin You was struck by this Yang Lightning, which left several scars on his body.

Lin You didn't care about this at all.

He leaped up into the air, brought his hands together, and a hand Seal appeared.

"Pure Yang Reverse Seal!"

A Great Seal of Pure Yang appeared before Lin You. This great Seal, which gathered the Qi of Extreme Yang, descended.

It fell toward Lin Ming's position.

The surrounding, constantly clashing lightning seemed to be suppressed by it, shrinking back toward Lin Ming's side.

"A Sealing Method."

When Lin Ming saw this great Seal, he saw through its essence.

Using the Dao of Pure Yang as a Seal, it would trap the recipient within, making them unable to move.

And judging by the power of this great Seal, a cultivator of the Spirit Platform Realm would likely be unable to withstand it.

"Surrender."

Lin You looked down at Lin Ming from above.

If he surrendered, he might suffer a bit less.

"Surrender? What kind of joke are you telling?"

Surrender?

If Lin Ming dared to surrender, once the Nirvana Ceremony was over, his Revered Master would definitely hang him from a tree and beat him. He didn't want to receive such a punishment.

Therefore, even if he were beaten to a loss, he could not take the initiative to surrender.

Besides, although this great Seal was powerful, it was not impossible to break.
