73: Love is like a gust of wind, it blows and then it's gone!
The voice came from all directions, making it impossible to pinpoint where the person was.
Yamamoto’s pupils constricted, instantly putting him on high alert.
Lin Ling’s breathing, too, became rapid.
Omniscient View had been active the entire time; the originally swaying, blood-red light point had instantly crossed hundreds of miles and overlapped with his coordinates.
“Who?” Yamamoto roared, simultaneously drawing the katana from his waist and slashing at Lin Ling.
The slash was incredibly fast.
It gave Lin Ling no chance to dodge.
Lin Ling’s pupils abruptly shrank, and with a thought, he was about to unleash A Thousand Miles Away.
However, at this critical moment, the blade light suddenly froze in mid-air.
At this instant, it was as if time had come to a standstill at the location of the blade light.
Yamamoto’s expression changed drastically again.
His body vanished from its spot, instantly fleeing into the distance.
Under Lin Ling’s Omniscient View, the red dot representing Yamamoto had already reached dozens of miles away.
However, just then, an old man in a white magic robe suddenly appeared in front of him.
The old man softly began to chant.
The next second,
Time began to rapidly rewind, and the escaping Yamamoto was actually pulled back.
“Lin Ling, don’t worry, with me, Jiang Shan Yi, here, those Japanese scoundrels will absolutely not harm a single hair on you,” Jiang Shan Yi said with a smile.
The next second, the blade light that was striking at Lin Ling suddenly changed direction and plunged into Yamamoto’s glabella with a *thud*.
Blood mixed with brain matter flowed from Yamamoto’s glabella, and his health bar was instantly emptied.
A peak Six-Turn Earth Ninja died just like that in front of Lin Ling.
At this moment, even though Lin Ling had lived three lives, he couldn't help but swallow hard.
Jiang Shan Yi took a step, instantly arriving by Yamamoto Ichiro’s corpse.
But he slightly furrowed his brows.
“Huh? Why no kill notification?”
Boom…
An abrupt change occurred; Yamamoto’s corpse on the ground suddenly exploded. Jiang Shan Yi teleported five meters away, but some blood still splattered onto him.
“Son of a b*tch…”
Jiang Shan Yi cursed, but before he could finish, his expression changed drastically.
A poisoned notification appeared above his head, and his body entered a 3-second Rooted state.
Jiang Shan Yi’s passive defense treasure automatically released a defensive shield, protecting him from all angles.
However, at this moment.
A dark figure silently appeared behind Lin Ling.
A gleaming, cold dagger stabbed directly towards Lin Ling’s back.
Yamamoto Ichiro’s SS-tier talent skill, Divine Concealment Clone.
After using Divine Concealment Clone, the clone would possess one-third of the main body’s attributes, and all damage would become true damage.
If the main body died, the clone would automatically become the main body after seven days, with its level dropping by one.
Unless both the main body and the clone died, Yamamoto Ichiro would not truly be killed.
At this moment, Jiang Shan Yi’s expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with self-reproach and regret.
He knew what three seconds meant for this child in front of him.
The Child of Prophecy was about to fall before his eyes due to his carelessness.
However, just then.
A strange song suddenly echoed through the forest.
“Invincible is so, so lonely.”
The cold dagger pierced Lin Ling’s back, but a diamond armor appeared outside his body.
A huge, crimson number floated above Lin Ling’s head.
-308316
This scene instantly made both Yamamoto Ichiro and Jiang Shan Yi gasp in cold air.
Especially Yamamoto Ichiro, after this stab, for some reason, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Just then, another song echoed from all directions.
“Love is like a gust of wind, it blows and then it’s gone.”
“This kind of rhythm, no one can do anything about it…”
The sense of crisis grew stronger and stronger, and Yamamoto Ichiro delivered another stab.
-308316
Another crimson number appeared, but Lin Ling still did not fall.
The diamond armor’s 10 million health points played a crucial role at this moment.
Yamamoto glared, knowing he no longer had a chance to attack.
He stared intently at Lin Ling, clearly understanding that he should immediately flee far away.
Suddenly, Lin Ling’s lips slowly curved upwards, “Have you heard of a Tornado?”
That ominous premonition grew even stronger, and Yamamoto Ichiro turned to flee.
But as soon as he turned, a current of air very abruptly appeared around his body.
This current of air, with Lin Ling as its eye, instantly transformed into a massive Tornado that shot straight into the clouds.
In an instant, towering trees were uprooted, and sand and stones swirled into the sky, as if to break through the firmament.
Jiang Shan Yi was so shocked his mouth hung open; the shield around his body instantly developed a network of cracks.
Yamamoto Ichiro’s eyes instantly became bloodshot.
“How is this possible?”
As his last words left his mouth, his body, like an ant before the colossal wind-element Azure Dragon, was instantly engulfed by the Tornado.
“Oh, love comes too fast, just like a Tornado.”
“Can’t leave the storm’s embrace, no time to escape…”
Countless wind blades raged within the Tornado; almost in the blink of an eye, Yamamoto Ichiro was reduced to a skeletal frame.
The Tornado moved into the distance, like a doomsday catastrophe.
A hundred-meter-wide vacuum zone appeared in the middle of the vast Abyss Well forest.
Only when the Tornado completely dissipated did Jiang Shan Yi slowly regain his senses.
He didn't even know when his Rooted status had been removed.
At this moment, the shield around Jiang Shan Yi’s body had vanished; it had completely collapsed just before the Tornado ended.
The originally energetic Deputy Hall Master Jiang now had disheveled hair and messy clothes, looking exactly like a refugee from Siberia.
The flesh on his face twitched incessantly, and his eyes only held that slightly thin figure and the miraculous forest path that appeared before him.
How the heck is this possible?
What did I just see?
Family, who understands this?
A little guy who had just awakened less than two days ago cast a Forbidden Spell right in front of him and killed a Six-Turn Earth Ninja.
Who would believe that if you told them?
But such an absurd thing truly happened.
Jiang Shan Yi’s breathing began to quicken; his gaze on Lin Ling was as if he were looking at a treasure.
At this moment, Jiang Shan Yi had already made a decision: he absolutely could not let Lin Ling be left to his own devices anymore; Lin Ling definitely held a great secret.
Feeling Jiang Shan Yi’s gaze, Lin Ling did not relax his guard in the slightest.
“Hero’s Eye!”
Lin Ling looked at Jiang Shan Yi and immediately used Hero’s Eye.

Seeing this attribute panel, even with Lin Ling’s psychological preparation, he couldn't help but gasp in cold air.
This was the panel of a Seven-Turn old man?
Over 15 million health, nearly 19 million mana.
If Lin Ling had this much mana, he could cast 19 Forbidden Spells consecutively.
No wonder he could easily handle a Six-Turn Cherry Blossom Ninja; there was simply an unfathomable chasm between Seven-Turn and Six-Turn.
Although he felt no hostility from Jiang Shan Yi, Lin Ling still felt a strong sense of apprehension at this moment.
“Should I keep this old man? After taking Magic God Dew, I can continuously cast all Forbidden Spells. I wonder if I can take down a Grand Magus.”
PS: Daily thought, I’m back with a PS. Just asking, have you heard “Tornado” and “A Thousand Miles Away”? Actually, old songs are quite nice too, though they might reveal my age a bit.
