Kuang Hai’s expression froze.
He was very confident when he came here, feeling that he could definitely defeat Lin Shen and had long treated the Xuandu Token as his own. However, he had never thought of his own bet.
Fortunately, he was quite wealthy. After a moment of thought, he had an idea. With a flip of his wrist, he took out something from his storage ring.
“This is a formation disk. There’s a Nine Mystic Metal Array fixed on it that can be used repeatedly. When spiritual essence is injected, the array formation will be activated and defend an area of 300 meters in radius. Even if 30 to 40 cultivators at the ninth level of the Bright Aperture Stage join forces to attack it, the array formation can withstand for an hour or two!”
Nine Mystic Metal Array?
Lin Shen’s eyes lit up.
That sounded great!
That would be equivalent to a defensive array formation that could be activated at any time. If used well at the critical moment, it would almost become a life-saving trump card!
Tsk tsk, were inner sect disciples all so rich that they could casually take out such a treasure that was almost as powerful as a profound armament?
Lin Shen looked at Qu Ke and Shen Zening’s expressions. Seeing the surprise on their faces, he knew that his guess was right. This formation disk was indeed a great object. Therefore, he didn’t hesitate and immediately agreed.
Seeing Lin Shen agree, Kuang Hai was overjoyed. The ecstasy in his heart almost broke out of his chest.
The formation disk was indeed precious, but from his point of view, it was only temporarily used as a bet. If he won, he would naturally be able to get it back.
The key was the Xuandu Token!
As long as he defeated Lin Shen and took back the Xuandu Token, he could go to Wood Ancestor City to participate in the Xuandu Meeting.
Once he obtained the Mystic Essence Liquid, he had a chance of condensing the 27th spirit meridian and obtaining a third-grade spirit meridian!
At that time, his status in the sect and family clan would definitely soar, and his future would be limitless!
Thinking of this, Kuang Hai almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud!
As for the possibility of losing the battle?
What a joke. He was an inner sect disciple with a cultivation base of 26 meridians. How could he lose to a disciple from the academy who had only recently condensed a spirit meridian?
In the end, rumors were just rumors. A ridiculous rumor of a Bright Aperture Stage disciple severely injuring a cultivator master would only make people laugh.
Kuang Hai was full of confidence. He sneered at Lin Shen and said, “Don’t say that I’m bullying you. You can choose the location of the battle!”
Lin Shen nodded and said, “I’m in a hurry. Let’s do it here.”
Then, he cupped his hands at Shen Zening and Qu Ke.
“Senior Brothers, please wait for me for a while. It won’t take long.”
Kuang Hai was furious, and even Qu Ke and Shen Zening had strange expressions on their faces.
His opponent was an inner sect disciple with 26 meridians after all. Was it appropriate for him to look down on Kuang Hai like this?
To be honest, although Qu Ke and Shen Zening knew Lin Shen was quite capable, they had never seen it with their own eyes. They didn’t know exactly what level Lin Shen was at.
Kuang Hai, on the other hand, was one of the top ten elites among the inner sect disciples.
The two of them really did not have much confidence in Lin Shen’s victory.
However, at this point, it was impossible for them to stop Lin Shen. They could only secretly hope that Lin Shen wouldn’t lose to Kuang Hai.
“I hope you can be as sharp-tongued as you are now when you lose later!”
Kuang Hai glared at Lin Shen and threw the formation disk to Qu Ke for safekeeping before walking away.
Lin Shen smiled nonchalantly. He took out the Xuandu Token and handed it to Qu Ke before following Kuang Hai.
Not long after.
The two of them arrived at an empty place and stood 100 meters away from each other.
Kuang Hai sneered as he took out a Pure Yang Talisman Sword. With a flick of his wrist, flames surged out and spread from the sword’s edge.
The surrounding air instantly became hot.
“A Pure Yang Talisman Sword!” Qu Ke frowned slightly. “Where did Kuang Hai obtain such a treasured sword?”
Profound armaments were rare, and many inner sect disciples didn’t even have an inferior-grade profound armament.
In comparison, the Pure Yang Talisman Sword, a supreme-grade enchanted armament that was extremely close to profound armaments, was easier to obtain.
Therefore, obtaining a Pure Yang Talisman Sword became the goal of many disciples.
“Senior Brother Qu, don’t worry. Junior Brother Lin has a profound armament on him!” Shen Zening suddenly said.
After killing Yan Jingren, Si Yuanpei gave the tablet to Lin Shen. Few people knew about this, but Shen Zening knew it very well.
Hearing this, Qu Ke was a little surprised, but he felt less uneasy.
With the profound armament in hand, Lin Shen should have a better chance of winning.
On the other side, Kuang Hai, who was an inner sect disciple, originally wanted Lin Shen to make the first move. However, his patience finally ran out after a long while. He snorted heavily and charged Lin Shen with his sword.
To Qu Ke and Shen Zening’s surprise, Lin Shen didn’t show any signs of taking out his profound armament. Instead, he stood rooted to the ground.
“Junior Brother Lin, what are you planning?”
They were both shocked and bewildered.
At this moment, Lin Shen finally moved. He simply struck out with his palm.
This action stunned Qu Ke and Shen Zening even more.
Just as they were filled with confusion, they suddenly felt the surrounding temperature soar. The air instantly became exceptionally hot.
Not far away, in the sky above the place where the two people were fighting, an enormous scarlet palm had already appeared. Carrying boundless heat waves, it poured down like a fiery waterfall and instantly bombarded Kuang Hai, drowning him!
BOOM!
A thunderous explosion suddenly erupted!
Kuang Hai’s location was instantly submerged by raging flames and violent air waves!
Qu Ke and Shen Zening took a few steps back in unison and circulated their spiritual essence to block the scorching air wave..
