Chapter 5318: You’re actually pretending to be a pig to eat a Tiger
Translator: 549690339
“Hehe, it looks like you’ve been preparing for this for a long time!” Lin Yi didn’t panic, buying time by talking and then using a powerful killer move to defeat the opponent-this was his most common strategy. The nine neonate was showing off its skill in front of an expert-he’d noticed it from the start, but he just didn’t point it out.
The nine neonate’s spiritual energy was extremely huge, and it could be said to cover the sky and earth. Lin Yi was countless times weaker in comparison. He was like a small boat in a storm, and any wave would destroy the boat.
The difference between them was too great, and the nine neonate immediately looked down on Lin Yi. Because of what Lin Yi had just shown, it subconsciously thought that Lin Yi was a master who was pretending to be a pig to eat a Tiger, which was why it was so careful, even lowering its status to bargain with Lin Yi.
The mighty nine neonate actually lowered its head and negotiated terms with a human cultivator. The key was that this human cultivator’s strength was only at the perfected Foundation establishment realm. In the past, this would have been something unimaginable. The nine neonate would definitely think that it was crazy.
However, Lin Yi’s previous performance made it wary. This was a matter of life and death, so it couldn’t be too careful. The nine neonate had shown enough wisdom on this point.
As it tried to confuse Lin Yi, it observed Lin Yi’s every move and weighed the pros and cons. Finally, it came to a conclusion-this human could be killed!
That was why there was such a scene now. The uniqueness of the primordial spirit devouring meant that one could not act rashly. Once one did, it meant that one was 100% confident. Obviously, the nine neonate felt that it was foolproof.
From the looks of it, there was no way it could be defeated. If Lin Yi’s spiritual energy was one, then it had at least ten thousand spiritual energy!
Yuanying versus Zhuji, it had a huge level advantage, plus it was a nine-headed Dragon-if each head was the same as a Yuanying master, there would be nine of them in total. How could Lin Yi fight it?
“Lin Yi!” Duanmu Yu’s face paled. Although the ancient martial world had a systematic training of the spirit from the Foundation Stage, the levels were still there. She couldn’t do anything about this level of primordial spirit battle. The only thing she could do was pray for Lin Yi.
Otherwise, if Lin Yi was done for, she would be done for too.
On the other hand, the water lily was overjoyed. After being controlled by Lin Yi for so long, it had accumulated a stomach full of resentment. Just now, it didn’t understand the situation and ended up with a dirty face. Now it could finally vent its anger!
“I was wondering why his Excellency was so polite to this kid. It turns out that he was secretly doing something. Kid, just wait to die with your eyes wide open!” Water lotus laughed.
As he spoke, a huge wave rolled over, and the result was as expected. Lin Yi was instantly submerged in the overwhelming spiritual energy. In the most direct collision of the spirits, it was almost a death sentence.
“So this is all you’ve got after all!” The nine neonate’s last bit of worry was swept away, and it immediately relaxed.
The most important point of primordial spirit devouring was to devour the enemy with numbers. It was like two armies in a battle. Although military tactics were important, the deciding factor was still the number of troops. The situation at hand was equivalent to one’s own army of 10000 while the enemy was only one person, and they were surrounded. Was there any need to fight?
The victory was set. At this time, the nine neonate felt that it was a pity. It was rare to meet such a human primordial spirit, but before it had time to play with it, it had been devoured by itself. It had lost a lot of fun for no reason.
But before it could sigh, the scene in front of it made its eyelids jump. Lin Yi was drowned in its spiritual energy without a doubt, but he didn’t die just like that. It turned out that Lin Yi wasn’t a small boat like it thought, but an indestructible reef. No matter how the wind and waves blew, the reef wouldn’t move.
In fact, not only did reef remain unmoved, he even blocked the violent waves head-on. Every time he blocked the waves, the power of the waves would invisibly weaken by a bit. At first, he didn’t feel anything, but as the number of waves increased, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
It was just like when the two armies were facing each other. Although Lin Yi was surrounded by the nine neonate’s 10000-man army alone, the nine neonate suddenly realized that things weren’t that simple. It was true that the other party was surrounded by it, but the problem was that they weren’t ordinary people. They were enemies of 10000 people!
10,000 of them couldn’t kill the enemy at all. After a long time, Lin Yi was still safe and sound, but the nine neonate had already suffered heavy losses.
Against Lin Yi, its absolute advantage in numbers was meaningless, because Lin Yi had the absolute advantage in quality!
The nine neonate wasn’t an idiot. It quickly retreated when it saw that the situation wasn’t good, forcefully withdrawing its spiritual energy at the risk of backlash. Although it was injured, at least it wasn’t in danger of dying. If this continued, its entire spirit would be strangled by Lin Yi.
“You! You’ve been playing the pig to eat the Tiger all this time!” The nine neonate reacted and turned pale with fright. At this time, three of its nine heads had already withered, and it was clearly injured quite badly. It was fortunate that it had made the prompt decision to escape quickly, otherwise, the losses would have been even more severe.
“How did I play the pig to eat the Tiger?” Lin Yi clapped his hands with a half-smile on his face. It was his first time experiencing a soul fight like this. He was a little nervous at first, but he calmed down after realizing the difference in strength. This kind of experience was very rare, and he still wanted more.
“If I’m not wrong, you’re a xuansheng stage expert!” The words ‘fear’ and ‘fear’ were clearly written on every face of the nine neonate!
“F * ck! My Lord, Are you sure?” Water lily, who was standing at the side, was shocked.
“Really?” Duanmu Yu also couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
“Oh? I didn’t expect you to know so much. You even know about the xuansheng stage?” Lin Yi asked, surprised.
“Nonsense! I’m at the great circle of the original level, and I’ve been trying to break through to the next level. How could I not know about the mysterious Ascension stage?” The nine neonate snorted, but it didn’t dare to show any disrespect to Lin Yi anymore. Even if it was a peak nascent soul, it was nothing in front of a master of the xuansheng stage. It was fine that it was ignorant before, but now that it realized what was going on, it didn’t dare to be impudent anymore.
“Tell me, how did you find out that I was at the xuansheng stage? you’re not just making a wild guess, are you?” Lin Yi asked curiously. At least on the surface, he was a complete foundational stage now, and the process of spirit projection weakened his entire spirit greatly. He didn’t look like a xuansheng at all.
