58: Traditional art of Tianshifu! Dan Dan!

Boom, boom, boom!

A series of violent explosions resounded as Lin Yuan and Lu Jin battled for dozens of rounds.

When hundreds of longswords began to circle behind Lin Yuan, a question involuntarily arose in his mind.

Reverse Life Threefold, it should be able to withstand this level of sword formation, right?

"Rootless Life!! Die for me!!!"

Seeing Lu Jin becoming increasingly frenzied and unable to extricate himself, Lin Yuan's mind stirred, and the longswords behind him converged into a long dragon of sword qi.

"Return to Origin!"

Lu Jin saw the sword qi dragon approaching and, without dodging, charged straight at it, his fists wildly and continuously striking, sending longswords flying with his white qi-infused punches.

However, Lu Jin ultimately only had two fists, and the longswords eventually broke through his defense.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!!

A large number of longswords pierced his body.

Lu Jin merely trembled all over, and all the longswords were pushed out by a surge of white qi, while his injuries also rapidly healed.

Lin Yuan seized the moment and immediately activated Platinum Star to move forward.

"Za! Warudo!"

"Ora! Ora! Ora! Ora!"

Platinum Star's fists continuously unleashed afterimages, striking Lu Jin.

In the time-stopped state, Lu Jin was unable to heal, and his injuries were further exacerbated.

As time stop ended.

Lin Yuan's movements in his hand did not cease; he formed a hand seal, and the Myriad Transformation Spiritual Light transformed into a white rope, firmly binding Lu Jin.

"Ah!!!"

Lu Jin continuously squirmed, attempting to struggle free, but for a moment, he couldn't move.

"Still not behaving!"

Lin Yuan hardened his resolve, and a longsword directly impaled Lu Jin's chest, pinning him to the spot.

He used all his strength and delivered two big slaps to Lu Jin's old face.

These two slaps could be considered a re-enactment of Lu Jin's childhood; he recalled crying from a slap from Lu Jin when he was young, and he didn't dare to cry out in front of everyone to save face.

Now, the tables had turned, and at such an old age, he was being beaten by Lin Yuan.

Reverse Life Threefold, as a renowned ultimate technique of the Sanyi Sect, was hailed as the cultivation method closest to immortality.

This was because the core principle of this cultivation method was to reverse one's cultivation to the state of just being born, with innate qi pervading the entire body, ultimately leading to ascension.

Lin Yuan continuously observed this complex cultivation method, deep in thought.

Perhaps the Old Celestial Master's earlier actions had traumatized Lu Jin; now, the white qi on his body was slowly dissipating, and he was gradually exiting the Reverse Life state.

"Hehehe... what an interesting cultivation method! Another day, I must ask Lu Jin to demonstrate it again so I can thoroughly analyze it."

Saying this, Lin Yuan pulled out the longsword embedded in Lu Jin's chest.

With his eyes slightly closed, Lin Yuan performed Heaven-Seizing Creation, and his Yin and Yang hands entered Lu Jin's body.

After a long while, Lu Jin only felt his mind clear and his body invigorated; the red glow in his eyes gradually returned to calm.

"Senior Lu... are you awake?"

Lin Yuan stood in place, looking at Lu Jin.

If not for special circumstances, Lin Yuan truly didn't want his master to intervene. They had been good friends for many years, and his master couldn't bear to strike heavily, which was why he ended up getting injured.

At such an old age, it's best to avoid injuries if possible.

Some things should be avoided if they can be. He had been on Mount Longhu for so long, and the Old Celestial Master had indeed treated him well.

As his disciple, he should help him whenever he can... "I... I... what happened to me? I feel like I had a dream, and I seemed to dream of Rootless Life."

Lu Jin blinked, muttering.

Lin Yuan sat beside him, letting out a long sigh.

"Oh, my Senior Lu, you've finally woken up. If you didn't wake up soon, I truly wouldn't have known what to do."

"Lin Yuan, what happened to me?"

Seeing Lin Yuan beside him and himself tied up, Lu Jin immediately asked:

"Senior Lu, you were troubled by Gao Ning's Twelve Afflictions Formation and just went berserk. How do you feel now?"

Lu Jin immediately understood upon hearing this.

"Oh dear... I almost made a big mistake. I thought I just dreamed of Rootless Life, but I didn't expect to have fallen into Gao Ning's trap."

"Oh dear... I apologize, Lin Yuan. This time, I, an old man, held you back."

Lu Jin lowered his head in shame. He had intended to help Lin Yuan, but instead, he had to rely on a junior to get out of trouble.

In his entire life, Lu Jin had never asked a junior to clean up his mess.

Now that this had happened, he feared his reputation would be ruined.

Lin Yuan immediately cupped his hands, giving Lu Jin an out.

"Senior Lu, you and my master have been good friends for many years. Your help to Mount Longhu today is a great kindness; it's just a small matter."

"Senior Lu, are you still hurt? I might have been a bit heavy-handed, please forgive me."

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, he only felt a burning sensation on his face.

"Alright! You brat! Did you learn this from your master too? That old Taoist only teaches you bad things all day; I'll settle accounts with him later!"

"You brat, you're really heavy-handed. But, with this way you tied me up, do you have some kind of fetish?"

Lin Yuan immediately retracted the ropes and changed the subject.

"Senior Lu, those Quansheng rogues each have various tricks up their sleeves. Linglong has been gone for so long and hasn't returned; I'm a bit worried..."

Lu Jin suddenly raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, kid, I didn't realize you cared so much about Lu Linglong. Let me recover for a bit; you go check on her first."

"You are all guests of Mount Longhu; this is only right."

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he stepped on a longsword and transformed into a streak of light, leaving the scene... Lu Jin watched Lin Yuan's retreating back and could no longer suppress his grimace.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss! That kid is really heavy-handed; at such an old age, he doesn't know how to respect the elderly and cherish the young! Those two big slaps, one on each side, quite symmetrical."

"Zhang Zhiwei! I truly don't understand, is the Sanyi Sect at odds with your Tianshi Mansion!"

"You just wait, old Taoist. When I get back, I'll marry Linglong to him. I'll be his great-grandfather, and you're Lin Yuan's master. Then I'll be several generations higher than you!!"

"Hahahahaha! This is a super promotion in seniority!!"

Thinking of this, Lu Jin immediately burst into laughter... Just as Lin Yuan was trying to help Lu Jin regain consciousness, Lu Linglong and her group, who were trying to find the Old Celestial Master, also encountered a group of fleeing Quansheng rogues.

Among them were experts from Quansheng. Even though Lu Linglong and her group wanted to fight the enemy with all their might, they were ultimately at a disadvantage in numbers.

Xi brandished his twin blades, desperately trying to carve a bloody path for the Lu Family Class.

"There's no other way! Linglong! I'll cover your retreat first! Go find the Old Celestial Master!!"
