Chapter 298: Heavily Damaged Luck, Gu Ming's Despair

Even more tragic was that one of his arms had vanished, blood gushing from the severed limb, drawing streaks of crimson in the void.

He coughed up large mouthfuls of blood, each cough seemingly draining all his strength, making him look utterly disheveled and having lost the ability to fight again.

“Old man, I’ll send you to your grave first!”

Gu Ming, like a rampaging beast, burst out from the raging void storm.

His face was contorted with ferocity, his twisted features resembling a demon made manifest.

His right arm was raised high, his fist enveloped in fiercely burning demonic flames, carrying an earth-shattering momentum as he unleashed a full-strength blow towards Elder Ling, who was gasping for breath and utterly weakened.

This punch condensed all his anger and killing intent, and the void itself crackled with sizzling sounds.

“Elder Ling, quick, dodge!”

From a distance, Mu Yang witnessed this heart-stopping scene, his eyes instantly widening, his face filled with horror, as he involuntarily shrieked.

He never imagined that Gu Ming’s battle power, boosted by a secret technique, would be so terrifying.

In just one exchange, Elder Ling was defeated and lost his fighting capability.

He knew that if this punch connected, Elder Ling would surely lose his life.

In his anxiety, his voice trembled slightly.

But Mu Yang didn't notice that Lin Yu’s figure beside him had instantly vanished.

When Lin Yu reappeared, he was standing firmly in front of Elder Ling.

Immediately after, Lin Yu’s right index finger slightly lifted, a brilliant sword light instantly condensed at his fingertip, then slashed out like lightning.

“Puff~~”

The fist shadow, heavily enveloped in demonic flames, deflated instantly like a punctured balloon under the impact of the sword qi, dissipating without a trace.

However, the sword qi, unstoppable and undiminished in power, shot directly towards the closely pursuing Gu Ming, piercing straight through his body.

“You… I… Puff!”

Gu Ming’s body abruptly stiffened, as if under a petrifying spell, stopping dead in his tracks.

He was about to speak but suddenly spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood, the blood mist spreading in the air.

At this moment, his face was filled with extreme shock and disbelief.

He truly couldn’t believe that in this punch, he had not only burned a large amount of luck but also contained his profound understanding of the Great Dao.

Furthermore, his body possessed his proud and formidable defense.

Even so, he was still instantly broken through by Lin Yu’s seemingly effortless small sword finger.

He slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on his heart, where a finger-sized blood hole had appeared, blood continuously seeping from the wound.

His eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment.

This isn't right! Why?

Why would Ghost Domain have such a powerful young generation?

What on earth is wrong with this world? How can there be so many peers he can’t defeat?

Old Chang didn’t say this before, was Old Chang lying to him?

At this moment, Gu Ming’s mind was in turmoil, countless questions surging like a tide.

At the same time, it was filled with endless unwillingness.

But this unwillingness, in the face of cruel reality, could only gradually transform into a deep sense of powerlessness.

He understood in his heart, even if he was full of unwillingness, what good would it do?

To this extent, he was still no match for Shadow Fiend.

That seemingly casual sword finger just now had effortlessly shattered his full-strength attack.

“Gu Ming, your luck burns fiercely, but… it’s far from enough!”

Lin Yu folded his arms across his chest, a faint hint of mockery on his face, and spoke softly.

He had seen everything clearly just now.

Gu Ming, in pursuit of a shocking effect, did not hesitate to burn a large amount of luck power; with such a crazy action, it was truly no injustice that Elder Ling was defeated.

After all, such a Heavens Chosen, was absolutely not something an ordinary strong person like Elder Ling could contend with.

And his finger just now, though seemingly casual, actually held a hidden mystery.

It not only contained a miniature Immortal Sword Domain but also was attached with exquisite spatial techniques.

This finger had already used two-tenths of his battle power.

Do not underestimate this two-tenths of battle power; it was enough to instantly slay an Eight Tribulation Loose Immortal.

However, even so, this strike landing on Gu Ming only caused him injury.

Of course, Lin Yu would naturally not reveal these inner details.

What he pursued was precisely this seemingly unpretentious, yet capable of making the opponent self-imagine and feel fear, deterrent effect.

Under such a powerful psychological blow, there were usually only two outcomes.

Either the Dao Heart continues to be damaged, falling into the abyss of self-doubt.

Or it is to turn unwillingness into motivation and continue to burn luck frantically.

But no matter which outcome, it would inevitably lead to Gu Ming’s luck decreasing again.

“Ding! Detected that Heavens Chosen Gu Ming’s Dao Heart continues to be damaged, generating doubt towards the Heavenly Dao Will, Luck Value -100 million, Host Cultivation Points +100 million.”

As expected, the system’s prompt sounded immediately after.

Lin Yu felt a burst of joy in his heart.

This guy actually lost the resolve to continue fighting, and his Dao Heart had a big problem.

He even doubted the Heavenly Dao Will that had always supported him!

He couldn't help but give this guy a big thumbs up.

Such an excellent habit should be continued.

Now there is only one hundred million left.

His heart also became excited at this moment.

With a little more effort, he could directly deal with this guy here.

“Cough cough, Shadow Fiend, even if you are powerful, what then? You still don’t dare to kill me. If I die here, Sect Master will definitely not let you off!”

Gu Ming coughed violently, spitting out a few mouthfuls of clotted blood, then struggled to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and spoke slowly.

At this moment, although he had lost the power to fight again, he did not want to die.

Therefore, he brought up Ghost Howl to try and deter Lin Yu.

Of course, he also knew in his heart that merely this sentence might not make Shadow Fiend wary.

In the dark, he had already quietly activated that soul jade.

This was the key to teleporting away from here.

He was able to come in again largely thanks to this soul jade.

He only needed to use this sentence to deter Shadow Fiend for three breaths of time, and he could leave safely.

However.

Something that completely terrified Gu Ming happened again.

He successfully gained time, and the soul jade was also successfully activated.

But he found that he was still standing firmly in place, not being teleported away as expected.

“Ying… Shadow Fiend, you actually sealed this place?”

He slowly raised his head, his eyes wide, staring fixedly at Lin Yu with terror.

His speech became intermittent and stammering, his voice filled with despair and fear.

That’s right, it was despair.

The soul jade was his last straw.

If even the soul jade was ineffective, then he…

At this moment, he felt a chill throughout his body, and his scalp tingled.
