115: Immaculate body
The main hall of the Blood Fiend Division.
The atmosphere was tense.
Four guards, clad in dark black scale armor, their aura as chilling as cold iron, held uniquely shaped narrow bone blades that glowed with a faint blue light, fanning out to block the hall entrance.
The leader, with a hideous centipede scar on his face, had arrogant eyes. He unreservedly unleashed the pressure of a Dharma Aspect Realm first-level expert, causing the Blood Fiend Division elites remaining in the hall to turn pale and be unable to move.
"Where is Lin Jingyu? The Third Prince summoned him, yet he dared to repeatedly make excuses, treating His Highness's dignity as nothing! If he doesn't appear today, don't blame us for tearing down your Blood Fiend Division!" The scar-faced guard captain's voice was icy cold, his bone blade flickering with a faint glow, exuding a bone-chilling coldness.
His deputy, Sun Qian, had blood at the corner of his mouth but stubbornly insisted, "Director Lin is out and hasn't returned! Don't you fear punishment from Director Qin for trespassing on a vital area of the Demon Suppression Division?!"
"Qin Shanhe?"
The scar-faced guard captain sneered, "His Highness knows what he's doing! What if we tear down this Blood Fiend Division, led by a Director who's nothing but a coward?"
He raised his bone blade, pointing it at Sun Qian, "Last time I'll ask, where is Lin Jingyu?!"
Just as the bone blade was about to swing down—
Buzz!
An indescribable pressure, like an ancient beast awakening from slumber, instantly enveloped the entire hall!
That pressure was not a wild Evil Qi, but a vast, noble Grandmist Qi, as if it nurtured the Origin of all things! It descended like an invisible, colossal divine mountain!
Crack! Crack!
The faint blue bone blade in the scar-faced guard captain's hand, along with the weapons of the other three, instantly became covered in spiderweb-like cracks as if struck by an irresistible force. Then, they silently turned into dust, scattering downwards!
"Pfft!"
The four Divine Treasury Realm guards were struck as if by heavy hammers, simultaneously spitting out a mouthful of blood. The color drained from their faces, filled with extreme terror!
They felt their internal organs' power and Protective Aura were as fragile as paper under this pressure, and even their Souls trembled!
Their bodies were nailed to the spot, their bones groaning under the unbearable weight, unable to move even a single finger!
The Blood Fiend Division members in the hall suddenly felt the colossal mountain vanish from their bodies, all pressure gone. They looked towards the entrance in shock.
A towering figure, as majestic as a mountain, had silently appeared at the hall entrance at some unknown point. It was Lin Jingyu.
No light emanated from his body, but a layer of noble Primordial Violet Qi faintly flowed around him. His skin was like jade, containing an unimaginably vast and vigorous vitality.
His eyes opened and closed; his left eye seemed to hold a flickering Chaos Divine Fire, while his right eye contained Primordial Stars.
Just standing there, he seemed to be the center of heaven and earth, the Origin of all things!
"Director!" Sun Qian and the others were overjoyed, as if they had found their pillar of strength.
Lin Jingyu's gaze swept over the four guards, who were like figures frozen in amber. His eyes showed no ripple of emotion, as if he were looking at four ants.
"Trespassing into the Blood Fiend Division and harming my subordinates is a capital offense."
His voice was not loud, yet it carried an supreme authority, as if his words were Law. Every word exploded like divine thunder deep within the Souls of the four guards!
Extreme fear erupted in the scar-faced guard captain's eyes. He wanted to beg for mercy, wanted to invoke the Third Prince, but his throat felt as if it was being choked by an invisible hand, unable to utter a single word!
He could only watch as Lin Jingyu raised his right hand.
He didn't use any Martial Skill.
He simply, from a distance, spread his five fingers and gently clenched them in the direction of the four men!
Boom!
Space seemed to collapse!
The four guards, along with their dark black scale armor, were clutched in an invisible giant palm!
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Four dazzling blood mists exploded in the air! Flesh, bones, and their terrified, distorted Souls were instantly pulverized into the most primitive particles under the crushing force of the Grandmist power, annihilating into nothingness! Not even a speck of dust remained!
Absolute obliteration! Utterly domineering!
The hall fell silent.
Sun Qian and the others felt their scalps tingle, their Souls trembling! Three Divine Treasury Realm eighth-level experts, one of whom was a Dharma Aspect Realm first-level guard captain... just like that... gone? Not even a speck of them left?
Lin Jingyu retracted his hand, as if merely flicking away some dust. He looked at Sun Qian, "How are your injuries?"
Sun Qian shuddered, then quickly bowed, "Reporting... reporting, sir! Your subordinate is fine! I just need to recuperate!"
He felt that the Director's aura, after returning this time, was as unfathomable as an abyss god!
"Mm." Lin Jingyu nodded. The Primordial Violet Qi naturally circulated, and a trace of pure life Origin Qi swept over Sun Qian and the others.
Everyone felt their internal injuries instantly heal, their depleted Qi and blood instantly replenished, and even their cultivation Bottleneck loosened!
They were all greatly invigorated, looking at Lin Jingyu with fanaticism and reverence!
This was the mighty power of the embryonic Primordial Creation Scripture! It created heaven and earth, and also contained endless vitality! An immaculate Physical Body, with vitality as vast as the sea!
Just as Lin Jingyu was about to inquire about the Third Prince, the blood fiend division master token in his arms vibrated, conveying Qin Shanhe's slightly urgent message:
"Brother Lin! Are you alright? Those four ignorant guards... dealt with? The Third Prince reacted very quickly! He himself, along with experts from Xuanming Island, has already gone to 'Listening to Waves Studio'! That place is his private property, protected by the Xuanming Heavy Water Grand Array! The Xuanming Island Protector, Venerable Minghai, is at the Peak of the Dharma Aspect Realm sixth-level, proficient in water Laws, and he also holds the Xuanming Island treasure, the sea-calming pearl! He is not to be underestimated! Your Majesty has summoned me, so I can't break away for now. You must be careful! If the situation is insurmountable, temporarily avoid his Sharpness!"
"Listening to Waves Studio?" A cold glint flashed in Lin Jingyu's eyes.
He hadn't gone looking for them, yet they came knocking? Perfect. He had just achieved a Breakthrough and needed stronger opponents to test this Grandmist power!
Dharma Aspect Realm sixth-level Peak? Xuanming Heavy Water Grand Array? sea-calming pearl?
In Lin Jingyu's current eyes, they were nothing more than larger evolution points gift packages!
"Watch the house." Lin Jingyu dropped three words, his figure instantly blurred, merging into the Void Realm, and vanished.
Only a faint, unsettling trace of Grandmist Qi remained in his original spot.
Sun Qian and the others looked at the spot where Lin Jingyu disappeared, then at the place where the four guards had turned into nothingness, their hearts surging.
"Director... is even stronger! Unbelievably strong!" one person muttered.
"The Third Prince... Xuanming Island... this time, they're probably going to hit a brick wall! No, a divine iron mountain!" Sun Qian's eyes gleamed with excitement.
East of the city, Listening to Waves Studio.
Built by the lake, originally an elegant place, it was now shrouded in a viscous, heavy, faint blue water curtain that emitted bone-chilling coldness.
The water curtain flowed, faintly roaring with countless ferocious illusory water beasts, isolating the inside from the outside.
This was the Xuanming Heavy Water Grand Array! Ordinary Dharma Aspect Realm cultivators who stepped in would instantly be crushed by the heavy water and have their Divine Soul frozen!
Inside the Wave-Watching Pavilion, at the highest point by the lake.
Third Prince Yinfeng sat in the main seat, his face handsome, but his eyes were deep and sinister, with a hint of undetectable ferocity.
Beside him stood an old man in a dark blue robe.
The old man was gaunt, with sunken eyes and skin wrinkled as if soaked in seawater. He held a fist-sized, constantly spinning faint blue pearl — the sea-calming pearl!
It was none other than the Xuanming Island Protector, Venerable Minghai! The terrifying aura of a Dharma Aspect Realm sixth-level Peak expert was unrestrained, making the air in the pavilion viscous and heavy.
"Your Highness, will that Lin Jingyu truly come? The Soul lamps of the four Black Armored Guards have extinguished, I'm afraid..." Venerable Minghai's voice was hoarse, like sea wind rubbing against rocks.
Yinfeng toyed with the jade cup in his hand, a cold arc curving at his lips: "He will definitely come. This man's character is utterly domineering and he holds grudges. This King destroyed his manor gate and killed his subordinates; how could he tolerate it? The Xuanming Heavy Water Grand Array, combined with Elder Hai's sea-calming pearl, will be his burial ground! His secrets... and that 'key' that might exist... will all be mine!"
As soon as his voice fell!
Buzz!
The Xuanming Heavy Water Grand Array enveloping Listening to Waves Studio suddenly vibrated violently! Like a calm sea into which a colossal meteorite had been thrown!
Rumble!
An earth-shattering roar!
That faint blue water curtain, capable of trapping and killing Dharma Aspect Realm sixth-level experts, was forcibly torn open from the outside by an unimaginably brutal force, creating a huge breach, all under the gaze of Yinfeng and Venerable Minghai whose pupils suddenly constricted in the pavilion!
A towering figure, wreathed in noble Primordial Violet Qi, like a divine demon splitting heaven and earth, stepped over the collapsing fragments of the water curtain and entered the array in a single stride!
His cold gaze pierced through space, instantly locking onto Yinfeng and Venerable Minghai in the Wave-Watching Pavilion!
"I heard you were looking for me?"
