106: Breakthrough! Breakthrough! Breakthrough!

"Lin Yi, run!"

Seeing these two First-Rank Masters attack together, Wang Yu's expression changed drastically. Then, he pushed his palms forward.

"Boom!"

Vast vital energy mixed with air currents, as if a God King was opening up the heavens and earth.

In an instant, a strange phenomenon of a sky-blue firmament covering several zhang appeared in the Void Realm, then fiercely smashed towards the two First-Rank Masters.

Heavenly Mountain Sect's unique First Rank Martial Arts Technique, Cloud-Splitting Palm's first form — Primordial Heaven-Opening!

At this moment, Wang Yu attacked with all his might, wanting to stop the two First-Rank Masters of the Great Yuan Dynasty by himself.

However... "Boom!"

A powerful air explosion sounded in the air.

In the Void Realm, Sword Qi collided with palm energy.

The next moment, under the combined attack of the two First-Rank Masters of the Great Yuan Dynasty, Wang Yu instantly seemed to be hit by a high-speed train. His Physical Body was directly sent flying with a bang, and he coughed up streaks of fresh blood.

Facing two First-Rank Masters, one of whom was even stronger than him, Wang Yu was ultimately defeated.

"Fifth Brother, there's no need to entangle with this person. Leave him to me. Go kill that Lin Yi!"

Seeing this scene, the palm technique Master let out a low shout, then flipped his hand and struck out another palm.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, it was as if streams of water were sounding in the Void Realm.

Immediately, a strange phenomenon of a sea in the sky, also covering several zhang, but with even greater power than Wang Yu's, instantly appeared in the Void Realm, then fiercely attacked Wang Yu again.

"Yes, Boss!"

Seeing this, the sword-wielding Master, a short and ugly man, nodded repeatedly, looking at Lin Yi with incredibly excited eyes.

The number one Genius in Heavenly Mountain Sect's history! He was even the number one Genius among all his peers in the entire Nine Provinces today!

If he killed him this time, it would be a great merit, even in the Great Yuan Dynasty.

And his name would surely be sung for hundreds or thousands of years by the Great Yuan Dynasty and future generations of the Nine Provinces. What kind of glory was that?

Thinking of this, the short and ugly man's body couldn't help but become excited. Immediately, he thrust his longsword, transforming it into layers of cloud sea. Within the cloud sea, streaks of terrifying sword light seemed to want to cut through heaven and earth.

At the same time, it also wanted to cut through Lin Yi's body!

"You want to kill me? Dream on!"

Feeling the terrifying power in the short and ugly man's sword strike, Lin Yi also became ruthless.

His eyes were cold, and his half-step mystic purple rank talent, "Abyssal Dragon Talent," was directly activated.

In an instant, an extreme chill rapidly flowed throughout Lin Yi's body, centered on his mind, eroding his burning heart, instinctive fear, and all miscellaneous thoughts, leaving only extreme pure calmness.

Finally, he raised his saber and slashed out a terrifying saber light.

"Whoosh!"

The brilliant saber light cut through the Void Realm.

In the sky, an incomparably brilliant Star River of saber light instantly rose. Within the Star River, stars formed by saber light circulated.

Countless stars mixed with the Star River, transforming into a Dragon-like Star River saber light that directly slashed towards the layers of sword light cloud sea.

Then... "Crash!"

The saber light Star River collided with the sword light cloud sea.

With just one clash, the saber light Star River was completely shattered by the sword light cloud sea.

After shattering the saber light Star River, the sword light cloud sea's power remained astonishing, instantly breaking through layers of air and striking towards Lin Yi's heart.

"Clang!"

A huge metallic collision sound rang out in the hall. In this critical moment, Lin Yi swiftly held his long saber horizontally, finally intercepting the longsword before it pierced his heart, barely blocking this attack.

However, the power of a First-Rank Master's attack was too immense. Even though Lin Yi barely blocked it with his long saber, the fierce force still impacted Lin Yi's body, sending him and his saber flying dozens of meters!

He finally stopped after violently smashing into the wall of the Qingfeng Stockade's Assembly Hall, creating a human-shaped crater in the wall.

"Hmm? A mere Martial Dao Third Rank, yet he can block my attack?"

Seeing this, the short and ugly man couldn't help but be surprised:

"This strength is probably stronger than that of a typical Second-Rank Peak Master, right?"

"As expected of the number one Genius in Heavenly Mountain Sect's history and the number one Genius in the Nine Provinces today, his talent is indeed terrifying! No wonder my Great Yuan Dynasty and many Xiantian Grandmasters in the Nine Provinces believe you have the potential to reach the top five on the Heaven Ranking!"

"But, what a pity! Haha! Today, no matter how strong your Aptitude is, or how vast your future prospects, you are still an ant in front of me!"

"Die!"

Before his words fell, the short and ugly man attacked again, his sword light transforming into layers of cloud sea.

It was incomparably beautiful, yet also filled with endless fatal killing intent!

However, facing this fatal sword strike, Lin Yi, who had emerged from the wall, still had an extremely cold expression.

He was like a cold machine, without fear, without fright, without excitement, without panic, without any emotion!

What he had was only the vast potential that continuously rose and strengthened as the crisis became more and more terrifying!

"Star River Myriad Forms Saber, slash!"

A voice devoid of any emotional fluctuation sounded. In the hall, Lin Yi once again slashed with his saber, and the brilliant saber light Star River immediately illuminated the Void Realm, directly slashing towards the layers of cloud sea.

"Overestimating yourself!"

The short and ugly man sneered when he saw this. His First Rank vital energy surged, and the sword light immediately whistled, shattering stars and cutting off the Star River, easily sending Lin Yi flying again. Then, he quickly pressed forward, continuing to attack Lin Yi.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Just like that, in the hall, Wang Yu, Chi Longyue, and Lin Yi, along with the three First-Rank Masters of the Great Yuan Dynasty, fought fiercely.

Powerful gale force energy swept out like blades and swords, turning the entire massive hall into ruins.

Many weaker Martial Artists who couldn't escape in time were even directly cut in half by the scattered energy, dying without a complete corpse.

"Too terrifying! Too terrifying!"

In a corner of the hall, looking at the six figures battling in the hall, Lu Chong felt his heart tremble.

"Is this the might of a First-Rank Martial Artist? As expected of the strongest existence below Xiantian. They are truly much stronger than us Second Rank Martial Artists."

"And that Lin Yi, at only sixteen years old, can actually fight a First-Rank Master. Is he even human?"

"No wonder he dares to be called the number one Genius in the Nine Provinces today? No wonder he has provoked a Peak power like the Great Yuan Dynasty to want to eliminate him quickly! I must have been utterly foolish to have offended him back then!"

"But fortunately, no matter how high his Aptitude is, in front of a First-Rank Martial Artist, he's about to die now!"

At this thought, Lu Chong couldn't help but reveal a pleased, sinister smile.

On the other side, after more than ten exchanges, Lin Yi was also nearing his limit at this moment.

First-Rank Martial Artists were ultimately too strong. Even though Lin Yi's Force Exertion Realm and Martial Arts Techniques Realm both surpassed his opponent's, the gap of two Realms was like an unbridgeable chasm before Lin Yi.

Under the fierce attack of the short and ugly man, Lin Yi's face was now pale, he continuously coughed up crimson blood, and his internal organs felt as if they had shattered, constantly sending waves of burning pain.

Under such injuries, even if Lin Yi remained calm and his willpower was strong, the objectively existing injuries in his body still caused his strength, speed, and vital energy to continuously decline.

Thus... "Clang!"

"Clang!"

After barely taking two more sword strikes from the short and ugly man, Lin Yi's long saber was shaken open by the short and ugly man's sword, creating a huge opening in his chest.

"Lin Yi!"

"Inspector Lin!"

...Seeing this scene, Chi Longyue and Wang Yu exclaimed, shouting anxiously, their vital energy erupting desperately as they tried to repel their opponents and go to Lin Yi's rescue.

But as they erupted, the two Masters of the Great Yuan Dynasty also erupted, and even more terrifyingly so, determined to hold them back and create an opportunity for the short and ugly man.

And seeing this scene, the short and ugly man also smiled:

"Haha! Finally, I've broken through your tortoise shell. It's all over!"

"What kind of strongest Genius in the Nine Provinces? Die!"

Before his words fell, the short and ugly man laughed and thrust his longsword, as if he was about to pierce Lin Yi's heart with a single sword strike the next moment.

However, right at the moment of life-and-death crisis—

"Boom!"

A violent vital energy suddenly erupted from Lin Yi's body.

That vital energy was incredibly powerful. In just a brief moment, Lin Yi's Aura rapidly ascended, becoming several levels stronger than before.

At the same time, his mind became clear, as if an Immortal had touched his head, like a sudden enlightenment.

In an instant, both his Force Exertion Realm and Martial Arts Techniques Realm surged dramatically.
