Seeing such a miraculously potent Immortal Grass, Lin Chang’sheng was naturally moved.
But if the other side wanted to trade it for Guo Yunchu, then forget it.
After all, Guo Yunchu was now his only leverage against the Immortal Martial Hall.
If Guo Yunchu wasn’t in his hands, he’d lose his bargaining chip with Immortal Martial Hall, and even if he got the Immortal Grass, he probably wouldn’t last long.
"I think I’ll pass! As good as this treasure is, I’m not lacking in it!"
Lin Chang’sheng declined flatly, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave!"
Saying that, Lin Chang’sheng stood up, ready to go.
"Lin Chang’sheng, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a penalty, you’ve made plenty of enemies among the sects. I don’t want Miss Yunchu dying with you! You’d better hand her over, or you’ll never leave here in one piece!"
Luo Juetian shouted angrily.
This Lin Chang’sheng just won’t budge!
"If I don’t hand her over, you wanna take her by force?"
Lin Chang’sheng sneered back.
Luo Juetian couldn’t do anything to Lin Chang’sheng even after breaking through to the Immortal Realm, let alone now when he’s only at Late Stage of Tribulation Crossing.
"Damn right, I’ll take her by force!"
Luo Juetian swung his hand, stowing away the Immortal Grass, and once again brought out the Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure. He wanted to get Guo Yunchu out before Corpse Evil Daoist activated the Grand Array, otherwise she might die in the array.
"Then bring it on!"
Lin Chang’sheng burst backward, summoning the Divine Thunder Bow.
Whoosh—
As soon as the Divine Thunder Bow appeared, the surrounding power of Celestial Thunder gathered, streaks of thunder flashing across the sky.
"Are they about to fight? That young guy, at his age, already has Mahayana Stage strength?"
"Yeah! His cultivation is insane. And the middle-aged man isn’t simple either, he’s got terrifying Tribulation Crossing Stage powers."
"If those two clash inside Spirit Heaven City, won’t the city be leveled to dust?"
"Very likely. When cultivators like them battle, it’s best to run, or the shockwaves alone could kill anyone weaker."
...
Seeing Luo Juetian and Lin Chang’sheng pull out their Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasures, clearly about to throw down, the crowd around them scrambled away.
Clashes between such strong cultivators were not something they could afford to watch.
This time, Luo Juetian was smart—he didn’t wait for Lin Chang’sheng to summon his Corpse Puppet, and unleashed his Late Stage Tribulation Crossing pressure straight away. Then, swinging his Long Saber, he sent a blade aura shooting at Lin Chang’sheng.
Lin Chang’sheng responded instantly, drawing the Divine Thunder Bow.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Nine Thunderbolt Arrows shot from the longbow, tearing through the sky with a howling wind.
Luo Juetian knew full well the power of those Celestial Thunder Arrows, so he immediately burst forth his primordial power to form an Elemental Shield before him.
Boom, boom, boom—
The arrows flew at insane speed, crashing into Luo Juetian’s Elemental Shield almost instantaneously, erupting in resounding explosions.
The Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure was no joke; even though Luo Juetian’s shield blocked all the Thunderbolt Arrows, his Inner Mansion still shook violently.
Luckily, Luo Juetian was powerful enough to dominate Lin Chang’sheng by a whole Great Realm.
If they were at the same realm, he figured he’d definitely lose to Lin Chang’sheng.
The next moment, Luo Juetian’s blade aura had already slashed down at the top of Lin Chang’sheng’s head.
Lin Chang’sheng didn’t dare to meet the blade with his body, so he instantly summoned the Dragon God Bell.
The treasure expanded as it caught the wind, turning into a golden copper bell that sheltered Lin Chang’sheng within.
BOOM—
The blade aura struck the copper bell, thunderously shaking the air.
The enormous force sent the copper bell flying.
But thankfully, the treasure blocked that brutal slash, keeping Lin Chang’sheng safe.
"Go!"
Lin Chang’sheng caught his breath and swiftly summoned his Late Stage Tribulation Crossing Corpse Puppet, sending it against Luo Juetian.
Though the Corpse Puppet couldn’t withstand attacks from the Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure, better it die than him.
If the Corpse Puppet could stall Luo Juetian, Lin Chang’sheng might find a chance to counterattack.
Maybe because Luo Juetian was still weakened from the last elixir he took, his attacks weren’t as fierce as before—he could only hold his own against the Corpse Puppet.
Seeing that, Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t about to waste the opportunity.
He unleashed his Divine Flame Realm once again.
BOOM—
The earth cracked open instantly, and countless divine flames poured out from below, burning the slower cultivators to ashes instantly.
Luo Juetian knew how deadly those flames were; just touching them could incinerate flesh and blood. He darted away from the fire, ascending into the sky.
"Ancient Long Fist!"
Just then, as Luo Juetian shot upward, Gu Shan barreled down from above, punching ferociously.
The Ancient Long Fist packed a serious punch, the fist aura crashing down like several mountains.
"You wanna die!"
Luo Juetian had no other choice but to swing his saber again.
BOOM—
The next instant, the overwhelming blade aura and fist aura collided in mid-air, erupting in a deafening explosion.
The blade aura was terrifying, blasting apart Gu Shan’s Ancient Long Fist from above.
Undeterred, the blade aura continued toward Gu Shan.
Gu Shan saw what was coming and dodged aside.
Just barely—the blade aura grazed his sleeve. If it had hit, even if he survived, he’d have been badly injured.
After all, Gu Shan was only at Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing, while Luo Juetian was at Late Stage—their strength was worlds apart.
"Last time you escaped the array; let’s see if you’re lucky enough this time!"
Lin Chang’sheng saw that he couldn’t beat Luo Juetian head-on, so he pulled out his Divine Soul once again. The newly enhanced Holy Soul Banner should be able to capture Luo Juetian directly.
