Chapter 94: Extreme Power
Swarms of dark sword aura descended from all directions, engulfing the huge mountain and encapsulating An Lin’s body within.
But this power could not even make a scratch on him.
A black symbol appeared on his forehead, taking on the shape of a sharp sword.
An Lin took one step, closing a distance of many kilometers, taking him to where Earth Immortal Yue Ying was.
“An Lin?”
Xu Xiaolan let out a yell upon seeing An Lin alive and well, before charging toward him with red eyes and enveloping him in a tight hug.
An Lin could feel that the soft, delicate body in his arms was trembling at this moment, seemingly with sobs.
He patted Xu Xiaolan’s back gently. “Sorry to make you worry.”
He gently pushed Xu Xiaolan aside after apologizing. “Wait for me, I have to do some other things first.”
Xuanyuan Cheng also let out a sigh of relief at the sight of An Lin’s return.
“Master!”
An Lin knelt down on one knee beside Earth Immortal Yue Ying.
Earth Immortal Yue Ying struggled to raise her head, her lips moved but she no longer had the energy to say anything.
As beautiful as she once was, her body was now frail to the extreme.
Not only had all of her hair turned white and wrinkles lined her entire face, her aura had also dimmed to an extremely weakened state.
The Evil-Slaying Sword glowed with a black aura, pulsing rhythmically.
It was clear that the sword was constantly absorbing Earth Immortal Yue Ying’s vital energy.
An Lin gripped the hilt of the sword, his expression thunderous with rage.
“What you’ve absorbed… spit it all back up!”
Boom!
A terrifying sword aura erupted from the Evil-Slaying Sword, transmitting straight into An Lin’s hand in an attempt to beat him into submission.
An Lin tightened his grip on the sword hilt, an indescribable sense of pressure immediately vanquishing the Evil-Slaying Sword’s sword aura.
Even the sword spirit of the Demon Emperor was instantly wiped away by this destructive aura.
The sword began to quiver as the flow of vital energy reversed itself, flowing back into Earth Immortal Yue Ying’s body.
Soon, her face began to regain some color and her skin became smooth and fine once again.
“An Lin… how did you…”
Earth Immortal Yue Ying stared at An Lin with incredulity in her eyes as her body began to regain its former vitality.
An Lin smiled warmly. “Master, bear with me, this is gonna hurt a little!”
After saying this, he pulled the Evil-Slaying Sword out of Earth Immortal Yue Ying’s body in one swift motion.
“Ow…”
Earth Immortal Yue Ying chewed heavily on her bottom lip but still couldn’t help but moan slightly at the acute pain.
However, her wounds ceased to hurt almost instantaneously.
Earth Immortal Yue Ying stared blankly at the palm resting on her chest as it glowed with a white light.
This was the most basic healing immortal spell, but in the hands of An Lin, it immediately healed her wound, which was saturated with remnants of Return to Void level destructive power.
At this exact moment, an extremely terrifying power began to manifest itself in the air.
The Dark Night Monarch finally initiated her second attack.
She’d already convinced herself that the seemingly feeble cultivator beneath her was some mighty figure that was hiding his strength. Hence, she chose to unleash her most powerful magical ability of all–Darkness of Origin.
The darkened skyline descended toward An Lin, as if the sky was falling, bringing with it the destructive power to wipe away everything in this world.
Countless human cultivators were all in shock upon seeing this, immediately choosing to get as far away from the scene as possible.
Even the Blood Tribe warriors escaped the battlefield in a frenzy as if their very lives depended on it.
It was clear that this was an attack that did not differentiate between friend and foe.
Its sole purpose was to wipe away all living beings on the ground.
“Has Master Dark Night gone crazy? How could she use this technique!?”
“She doesn’t give a sh*t whether we live or die.”
“Quit the chit-chat, let’s get out of here!”
In contrast with the complaints from the Blood Tribe, the human cultivators were all extremely stunned.
“My God, to be able to unleash such a terrifying technique, just what is that woman with the black wings?”
“We only came here to thwart the Demon Emperor’s plans, why have we encountered such a powerful foe?”
“It’s over, An Lin and his group are still at the very center of the technique’s area of coverage!”
“Forget An Lin, even if it was us, we still wouldn’t be able to escape from this technique…”
Daoist Xuyun from Wudang shook his head wistfully.
The endless expanse of darkness engulfing the sky gave its target no chance for escape.
The skyline fell at a drastic rate, engulfing the mountains surrounding the mountain where An Lin was situated.
Even Earth Immortal Ming Yuan had ceased his fighting with the Blood Gods to look toward the terrifying spectacle that was about to befall them, his face contorted with rage and an unwillingness to accept their fate.
“An Lin, behind you!”
Earth Immortal Yue Ying had already detected that An Lin seemed to be in a state vastly different from how he usually was, but she still couldn’t help but let out a yell of warning as the terrifying attack descended upon them.
“Don’t worry.”
An Lin nodded before casually swatting a hand towards the air without even turning his back.
Bam!
The sky crumbled into pieces from the force of his palm…
No, to put it more precisely, it was the Darkness of Origin that the Dark Night Monarch had unleashed.
The technique harboring enough power to annihilate Heaven and Earth was dispelled by a casual slap from An Lin!
There was no terrifying release of power, nor any earth-shattering techniques. It seemed as if An Lin merely smeared his hand onto the skyline and the endless expanse of darkness dissipated into nothingness.
The powerful aura emitted from the figure in mid-air was immediately impeded.
The stars and the moon reappeared in the clear night sky.
Countless cultivators and members of the Blood Tribe raised their heads in a daze, unable to believe their eyes.
Even Earth Immortal Yue Ying let out a yelp of surprise whilst staring at An Lin with eyes filled with incredulity.
“Done!”
An Lin nodded as the white light from his palms dissipated.
“Master, you’re now fully healed. Next, I’m going to exact revenge on those who did this to you!”
Earth Immortal Yue Ying nodded with a dazed expression upon hearing An Lin’s words.
An Lin smiled slightly before turning his gaze toward the sky once again.
The Dark Night Monarch’s face was also filled with incredulity, completely devoid of the cold calmness she previously exuded.
The Darkness of Origin was her most powerful magical ability, for it to be casually dispelled by a palm, how could she remain calm?
“You… Who the hell are you!?”
“Who am I?”
An Lin glared at the woman in the sky. “I am An Lin, the student of Master Yue Ying.”
He took a step forward upon finishing his reply and immediately appeared in front of the Dark Night Monarch.
Her pupils contracted drastically, but before she could even react, the Evil-Slaying Sword had already been embedded into her chest.
The extremely terrifying power of restriction immediately sealed away all of her power.
The Dark Night Monarch’s pitch-black eyes stared at the man in front of her, incredulity running amok in her heart.
She couldn’t even see how An Lin had suddenly appeared in front of her.
Teleportation?
No… teleportation would trigger fluctuations in the fabric of space and time.
The man in front of her had clearly appeared where he was from that single step he took.
His one stride completely disregarded distance as well as space and time, as if all of it was meant to be…
“What you did to my master, I now bestow upon you hundredfold, thousandfold!”
An Lin glared coldly at the Dark Night Monarch as the Evil-Slaying Sword began to release a powerful black aura, absorbing her blood essence in a wild frenzy.
“Ah…”
The Dark Night Monarch’s body began to tremble.
Her energy, cultivation base, and life force began to dissipate very quickly. Even her conscience was slowly being ground away.
All the while An Lin was maximizing the pain bestowed upon her.
Her whole body was racked in extreme pain, causing her to let out a heart-wrenching cry.
“Master Dark Night!”
The handsome man guarding the opening of the dark tunnel fell into a frenzy of rage upon seeing the scene unfolding before him.
He spread his huge black wings wide open and flew toward An Lin with a silver spear in his hand.
“Stop!”
He stabbed his spear forward, producing an impenetrable wall of tens of thousands of spear thrusts, painting the whole sky white.
“Be quiet!”
An Lin stabbed a finger toward the man with his left hand.
Crack…
The spear projection, the spear itself as well as its wielder.
All of them were instantly annihilated, not even leaving a single trace behind.
Daoist Xuyun, Daoist Youmu, and Stone Spirit were all shocked into silence upon seeing this.
The man who was just annihilated was a Black Wing warrior powerful enough to easily fend off the three of them at once.
But powerful as he was, An Lin managed to kill him with just a single finger!?
The rest of the Blood Tribe warriors all began sh*tting themselves after witnessing An Lin’s might and they all hurriedly escaped in a frenzy.
An Lin extended a single hand toward Heaven and Earth and feigned a grabbing motion.
To use the heavens as a trapping net, and the earth as an execution instrument!
Boom!
The ground shook thunderously as An Lin closed his grip.
An irresistible restrictive power descended from the heavens, rendering all the Blood Tribe warriors immobilized.
Immediately after this, a destructive power capable of annihilating everything began to rise from the earth, mercilessly ripping all the Blood Tribe warriors into shreds.
Even the Blood Gods, who possessed extraordinary vitality, were unable to escape the fate of having both their bodies and souls crushed into oblivion.
Thus, the Blood Tribe army fell to a single palm from An Lin!
