Chapter 300

When the grey-clothed youth looked at the sinister-looking mask Lin Yun wore, his grave became grave. He started transferring his origin energy into the sword in his right hand while he looked at Lin Yun. At the same time, Lin Yun’s words reverberated in his mind.

“Who’s he?” The four beneath the stone statue changed their faces.

The inner disciple that went by the name of Mu Ling spoked out coldly, “It’s just an act. Isn’t he just somewhat capable?”

Everyone was getting annoyed that an outer disciple actually threatened them. Not even Gu Yunfei on the eighteenth ranking had the guts to do that.

Towards the rear, Lin Qiushan and her team got nervous. They had no idea if Lin Yun was boasting.

“What should we do? Nothing will happen to Big Brother Zhong, right?” said Lin Yan with a hint of concern flashing across his eyes.

“Isn’t this Zhong Yunxiao a little too arrogant?”

“That’s right. His opponent is an inner disciple after all. It looks like we have no choice but to hand over the Swordcloud Cores.”

“Damn it. These inner disciples have an advantage over us in their cultivation technique and martial technique.

“I’ve long guessed that the sect won’t hand out the inner disciple’s quota so easily.” The outer disciples began to discuss among themselves. It wasn’t because they didn’t believe in Zhong Yunxiao’s strength, but the inner disciples were truly powerful.

They could practically destroy them with brute strength based on their cultivation technique and martial technique. Gu Yunfei had just been defeated, and Zhong Yunxiao still tried to threaten the inner disciples. But something queer happened because the grey-clothed youth didn’t launch another attack after a long time. This made everyone feel a little suspicious as they looked at Lin Yun.

“Junior Brother Tian, what are you doing?”

“Attack!”

“Are you terrified by that brat?” The faces of the four youths beneath the statue turned unsightly. On the other hand, the grey-clothed youth was cursing inwardly. The pressure that he was currently facing wasn’t something that outsiders could imagine. Now that he thought about it, he started to feel Lin Yun’s terror of how he avoided his attacks so easily. This was also the reason why he didn’t have any confidence to swing the third sword.

But this stalemate wasn’t the answer to everything. In the end, he gnashed his teeth and wanted to attack. But just before he attacked, Lin Yun moved. Lin Yun was already annoyed by these inner disciples’ arrogance. Not only did they defeat Gu Yunfei, but he even called them garbage.

“Since you’re not attacking when I gave you the opportunity, then take a punch from me!” Dracophant energy began to surface on Lin Yun’s body and he circulated the eighth stage of the Iris Sword Sutra.

The Iris Flower bloomed. As his origin energy, dracophant energy, and sword intent combined together, Lin Yun threw out a punch like a bolt of lightning. When Lin Yun threw out his punch, it caused an earth-shaking rumble that made everyone’s ears ache.

“This…” Lin Qiushan and everyone else was shocked by Lin Yun’s strength. Lin Yun’s strength had reached a height that they couldn’t see through. Lin Yun, who had just reached the fifth stage of the Profound Martial Realm, had undergone a complete transformation.

The grey-clothed youth was startled. He instantly knew that he wouldn’t be able to take this punch, and he would be killed within ten moves even if he did. But was he able to escape? Just when the grey-clothed youth wanted to retreat, Lin Yun’s punch slammed onto his chest and sent him flying out like a cannonball. He then crashed onto the status and threw out a mouthful of blood before he fainted.

“Junior Brother Tian!” The four inner disciples were completely dumbfounded. They didn’t expect that Lin Yun would be so powerful. This time, the disdain on Mu Ling’s face disappeared. He stared at Lin Yun for a long time before he spoke out, “You and your friends can pass through here without paying any Swordcloud Cores.”

Lin Qiushan and her party became excited that the inner disciples actually made a concession. However, Lin Yun’s reply shocked them. Lin Yun revealed a playful expression, and he smiled, “Interesting. Do you think that I stood out to play around? Your face really thinks that you’re saying as if the Sword Tomb is your courtyard!”

Lin Yun's words were like a slap to Mu Ling. Despite Mu Ling making a concession, Lin Yun replied with ridicule instead. This left everyone in the surroundings silent. Only Lin Yan narrowed her eyes into slits with her face blushing. This was what she liked about Lin Yun; he wouldn’t take a step back no matter what rules there were.

“What did you say?!” Mu Ling lost his temper. Did Lin Yun really think that they were afraid of him? If it wasn’t for the fact that they were worried that it would give others a chance if they fight with Lin Yun, Mu Ling would’ve crippled Lin Yun by now based on how he injured their companion.

It was rare for him to show his benevolence, but he received ridicule in response instead. While Mu Ling lost his temper, Lin Yun waved his hand, and he replied coldly, “Cut the crap. Hand out all the Swordcloud Cores you guys have on you. Otherwise, I will not be responsible for the consequences!”

If these people didn’t have Swordcloud Cores, Lin Yun wouldn’t be willing to be used by the outer disciples. After all, he could enter and leave the Sword Tomb as he wished without anyone capable of stopping him.

“Haha! I’ve seen many arrogant people, and I’ve never seen someone like you. Kill him!” Mu Ling waved his hand. The three inner disciples charged out, drew their swords, and unleashed their attacks at Lin Yun.

“This is…” Gu Beixuan and Chen Ling’s faces changed. They found the sword technique executed by the three inner disciples somewhat familiar, but they couldn’t recall it immediately.

“Senior Brother Zhong, watch out! That’s the Three-Demise Sword Formation!” Lin Qiushan yelled.

The Three-Demise Sword Formation? Lin Yun was briefly stunned. He seemed to have heard of it elsewhere, and it seems to be a spiritual sword technique that combines the power of several people.

While he was in deep thoughts, the three inner disciples swung their swords with disdain. Facing the sword formation, Lin Yun was caught by surprise and allowed a few sword gleams to grow cuts in his clothes with blood flowing from his wounds. However, he had already avoided the lethal attacks with the Seven Profound Steps, and thanks to the Dracophant Battle Physique, he merely suffered superficial injuries.

“Hmph!” Mu Ling’s face turned darker when he saw this scene.

The Three-Demise Sword Formation was truly powerful, and Lin Yun had an eye-opening in the formation. If he faced the three inner disciples individually, he could easily defeat them within ten moves. But it was a different question with the three of them combining their strength together. It was more interesting now.

A brief moment later, he found the loopholes in their formation and frowned his eyebrows beneath the mask. The Three-Demise Sword Formation was powerful, but these people didn’t even reach greater mastery with it. It was filled with flaws. However, Lin Yun wasn’t in a hurry to break the formation as he wanted to observe more and gain some comprehension. Perhaps it could loosen his bottleneck in the Overlord Sword.

But the spectators knew nothing about his thoughts. They only felt that Lin Yun was having a tough time in the Three-Demise Sword Formation. This made Lin Yan nervous, and she asked, “Big Sister, what’s the Three-Demise Sword Formation?”

“The Three-Demise Sword Formation derived from the Nine-Demise Sword Formation in ancient times. The Nine-Demise Sword Formation is long lost, but the remnants of it gave birth to many sword formations. The Three-Demise Sword Formation is one of them. It’s an intermediate spiritual sword technique that only the Sword Firmament Pavilion possesses the full copy in the Great Qin Empire,” explained Lin Qiushan with a grave expression.

After listening to Lin Qiushan’s explanation, even Li Wuyou’s expression turned grave.

“This spiritual sword technique is truly extraordinary. It trapped Zhong Yunxiao.”

“Zhong Yunxiao will get hit in his vitals sooner or later. These inner disciples are really shameless to use the Three-Demise Sword Formation against an outer disciple.”

“Hmph! There’s a reason why they’re ranked at the last hundred on the Earth Ranking. It’s only a pity for Zhong Yunxiao.”

The outer disciples were filled with admiration for Zhong Yunxiao’s strength and confidence. When they look at how he faced the Three-Demise Sword Formation by himself, they couldn’t help cursing the inner disciples.

“This is bad!” Lin Qiushan exclaimed out. They noticed that Mu Ling had already approached without anyone noticing. On the other hand, Lin Yun was fully focused on comprehending the Three-Demise Sword Formation that he didn’t notice Mu Ling.

“Die!” Mu Ling suddenly revealed a sinister smile. He charged into the Three-Demise Sword Formation without any signs and threw a punch at Lin Yun’s chest. The violent origin energy poured into Lin Yun’s body from his fist.

There was no way Lin Yun could take it even with the Dracophant Battle Physique. Blood started to leak from his lips and he was blown away. Before Lin Yun even landed on the ground, Mu Ling’s punches bolted forth once more that forced Lin Yun to put up his defence.

Origin energy fluctuated and Mu Ling threw out dozens of punches in a split second. When his last punch landed, it sent Lin Yun flying out a hundred meters away. After Mu Ling landed on the ground, he looked at Lin Yun, and he sneered, “And here I thought you’re somewhat capable. So it turns out that you’re just a piece of garbage!”

“Nice one!”

“Haha! Senior Brother Mu is right. This brat is just courting death.”

“Let’s kill him today. Otherwise, the outer disciples will still be looking down on us.” The three inner disciples sheathed their swords and mocked with disdain on their faces.

Lin Yun slightly tilted the mask and wiped the blood off his lips. When he looked at his own blood in his hand, he smiled, “You guys are ultimately inner disciples. It’s time for me to get serious. It looks like there’s no way for me to win without using martial techniques.”

He didn’t use any martial techniques? The four inner disciples were shocked. When Lin Yun wore his mask back, he revealed a cold smile and charged over. When he ran, he released the Dragon-Tiger Might and Lin Yun’s image began to grow bigger in everyone’s hearts.

Mu Ling and everyone else didn’t feel much, but all the outer disciples became emotional because they recognized the Dragon-Tiger Fist. Out of tens of thousands of outer disciples, there were those who knew the Dragon-Tiger Fist, and there were also those who knew the Seven Profound Steps. But there was only one person in the outer sect that knows the Dragon-Tiger Fist and Seven Profound Steps.

A name suddenly appeared in everyone’s hearts. For a split second, everyone including Lin Qiushan became emotional. Zhong Yunxiao was Lin Yun, the monstrous genius who rang the Phoenix Plum!
