The Thunder God Fist is a first-class Mystic-level martial technique, surpassing Lin Bai's Bloodshed Sword Technique by a major realm.
Don't underestimate the Bloodshed Sword Technique, which is a ninth-class Yellow-level technique, just one realm below the Thunder God Fist, but this gap is like the difference between heaven and earth.
Nine Heavens Divine Thunder descended, stirring up a storm of wind and thunder.
Qin Xiang stood amidst the thunder, as if transformed into a divine thunder god.
"The Thunder God Fist is at least a Mystic-level martial technique."
"Alright, since I've come to the Qingling Mountains, I haven't had a serious fight yet."
"I will fight this person with all my cards on the table, unleashing my full power to see if I am still the waste that Lin Zier speaks of!"
Lin Bai's fighting spirit was ignited, and he began to channel his true qi.
Just as Lin Bai was channeling his true qi, he felt that his true qi was no longer under his control, unable to be summoned from his dantian!
"What's going on?" Lin Bai was startled.
"Ha ha ha." Seeing Lin Bai's shocked expression, Qin Xiang laughed maniacally: "Can't you summon your true qi? I forgot to tell you, my greatest skill isn't martial techniques, but poisoning!"
"You have already been affected by my Xian Yao Powder, unable to summon your true qi, and you will soon see illusions!"
"Despicable!" Lin Bai gritted his teeth in anger.
Whoosh—
Lin Bai looked ahead, only to find himself no longer in the Qingling Mountains.
Instead, he was back to his childhood, the time when he was with his father.
"Father, what sword technique are you practicing?" Little Lin Bai asked in a childlike voice.
Lin Duo, with a heroic expression, sheathed his sword and smiled: "Father's sword technique is extraordinary. When perfected, it can split the heavens and earth, chase the stars and capture the moon, slay the gods of the nine heavens above, and exterminate the deep-sea dragons below!"
"Father is lying, how can you be so powerful and still stay in Lingxi City?" Little Lin Bai said, disbelieving.
Lin Duo smiled: "Isn't it because of you! I want to give you a peaceful childhood and don't want you to get involved in this conflict too early!"
"Alright, Lin Bai, watch Father's sword movements. This sword technique is called: Dragon Slaying!"
Whoosh—
Lin Duo stepped on the myriad stars, and a profound and unfathomable sword technique was displayed before Lin Bai.
"Brother Lin Bai~"
At that moment, a joyful female voice called out from outside the courtyard wall.
Lin Bai turned around, and when he saw the woman, his innocent gaze gradually turned into a burning rage, gritting his teeth and shouting: "Lin Zier!"
"Lin Zier!"
"Lin Zier!"
Snap—
The illusion shattered!
Tie Tanghai, who had been gagged, spat out the cloth in his mouth and shouted loudly to Lin Bai: "Young Hero, be careful!"
"Ha ha ha, die!" Qin Xiang, with the power of the Nine Heavens Thunder, punched down, as if this punch was not only to kill Lin Bai but also to level everything within a hundred meters, making the earth and all living things tremble under the wrath of the thunder god!
"Damn!"
Lin Bai promptly woke up from the illusion.
His blood surged, and the Divine Demon Hell Suppressing Formula channeled his blood energy, devouring all the toxins in his blood.
True qi surged from Lin Bai's dantian like a mad dragon.
True qi left his body, unstoppable!
"Cold Blooded Sword!"
The fourth move of the Bloodshed Sword Technique.
Whoosh—
At the moment Qin Xiang's thunderous punch descended, Lin Bai's eyes narrowed, and he swung his sword upward in a counterattack!
The two clashed in mid-air!
Bang!
Lin Bai was sent flying over ten meters by Qin Xiang's punch, crashing into a large tree and breaking it in half. He landed on the ground, spitting blood, his face pale.
Qin Xiang landed, his face shocked, looking down at his chest. Lin Bai's sword had pierced his heart, leaving a fist-sized hole, blood gushing out.
"How is this possible!"
Qin Xiang, in his dying moments, said in utter shock.
He had used Xian Yao Powder to confuse Lin Bai's mind, making him enter an illusion, and then used the first-class Mystic-level Thunder God Fist. Under this double attack, Lin Bai had actually turned the tide!
"Damn, almost got caught off guard!" Lin Bai shook his head, standing up from the ground, still shaken.
Bang!
Qin Xiang's body fell to the ground, his breath gone.
Lin Bai glanced at Qin Xiang's corpse, then walked to Tie Tanghai's side, who still had toxins in her body.
Lin Bai placed his hand on her neck, using the Divine Demon Hell Suppressing Formula to channel her blood energy, removing all the toxins from her blood.
"Are you alright now?" Lin Bai asked with a smile after he was done.
Tie Tanghai was surprised to find that the Huan Powder, which could last for a whole day, was instantly neutralized by this young man's light touch.
Tie Tanghai stood up from the ground, bowing in gratitude: "Thank you, Young Hero, or I would have fallen to this villain's hands today."
"No need to thank me, I just can't stand such despicable means to possess a woman," Lin Bai shook his head and said, "Since you're fine now, leave quickly."
"May the mountains be high and the waters long, we will meet again if fate allows."
Lin Bai smiled and prepared to leave.
"Young Hero, please leave your name, Tie Tanghai will surely repay you one day," Tie Tanghai called out, unwilling to let him go.
Lin Bai smiled: "My name is Lin Bai! Miss, we will meet again if fate allows!"
"Lin Bai..." Tie Tanghai watched Lin Bai's back, her gaze no longer as composed as before.
Such an ordinary name, a sharp sword, and in this seemingly ordinary and plain young man, there was a heart of chivalry.
In this era of deceit and self-interest, where righteousness has been abandoned, and all martial artists pursue profit, there are few like Lin Bai, who would save a stranger without seeking any reward.
Watching Lin Bai's back, Tie Tanghai felt a bit lost.
Tie Tanghai had a fierce and unyielding personality, vowing never to lose, but she wanted to find a man stronger than her to be her husband!
And it seemed that this person had appeared.
In Tie Tanghai's fangirl-like gaze, Lin Bai walked a few steps and then quickly ran back.
Tie Tanghai exclaimed in delight: "Lin Bai."
"Miss, I have a question. Do you know how to enter the Demon Slayer Alliance?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.
Lin Bai, who was about to leave, realized he had no idea where the Demon Slayer Alliance was.
So he turned back to ask Tie Tanghai.
Tie Tanghai asked curiously: "Why do you want to go to the Demon Slayer Alliance?"
Lin Bai smiled: "I heard that the Demon Slayer Alliance has a detailed map of the Qingling Mountains, marking which mountains are dangerous, which have beasts, and the ranks of the beasts. I want to go to the Demon Slayer Alliance to obtain such a map."
"Do you know where the Demon Slayer Alliance is?" Lin Bai continued to ask.
Tie Tanghai said proudly: "Of course I know, because I am the daughter of the Demon Slayer Alliance's leader!"
