"No good! This is a defense barrier against spiritual attacks!"

Modan's face changed as he saw this, and he quickly shouted loudly.

Although he was aware that the Devil Sound Bell Lin Yun carried was usually capable of piercing through barriers defending against spiritual attacks, this was no ordinary defense barrier. Ao Firestone would not deploy a useless defense barrier at this juncture.

The Devil Sound Bell was originally a magical artifact of the Firestone Family, and Ao Firestone was well aware of its power.

On the other side, Ao Firestone's gaze was icy.

The defense barrier he activated was emitted by a one-time use Talisman Rune. Such talismans, obtained at the same place as the Devil Sound Bell, the God Devouring Knife, and the Heaven Seizing Claw, were extremely powerful, especially against spiritual attacks like those from the Devil Sound Bell. They were more than sufficient.

However, even the Meteor Saint of the Firestone Family couldn't produce these talismans.

One less talisman with each use.

Therefore, these talismans also counted as one of the Firestone Family's legacies.

Originally, he had not planned on using it, but now, there was no choice but to do so.

Being pushed to use such a talisman by a youngster at the Half Step Super Realm made him furious.

Next.

The Devil Sound Bell attack deployed by Lin Yun was naturally blocked by the defense barrier, not affecting Ao Firestone in the slightest.

"Boom—"

The attack from Lin Yun and Ao Firestone's counterattack collided forcefully against one another.

This time, without the influence of the Devil Sound Bell, Lin Yun's attack was pushed back step by step, and soon, a powerful force of attack struck Lin Yun's body, flinging him backward as he spewed out a long stream of fresh blood in midair.

"Lin Yun! Stop attacking Ao Firestone! Retreat quickly and wait for this defense barrier to disperse, then find a chance to help me!" Seeing that another attack from Ao Firestone was about to hit Lin Yun, Modan swiftly blocked this attack and spoke rapidly.

Since Ao Firestone had not used the defense barrier at the beginning, Modan surmised that even Ao Firestone could not easily activate it whenever he wished. He estimated that although the barrier was strong, it was not impossible to break through with several more attacks.

It would be better to wait until he had broken through before Lin Yun came forward to assist in the attack.

Otherwise, without concerns for defense, if Ao Firestone focused solely on attacking Lin Yun, even he might not be able to block Ao Firestone's attacks for Lin Yun repeatedly.

"Heh heh, Modan, you really think you can stop me?" On the other side, Ao Firestone sneered coldly.

Boom!

During his speech, he charged brazenly towards Lin Yun, entirely disregarding any of Modan's attacks against him.

"How dare you..." Modan's complexion changed drastically.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

He lashed out repeatedly, attempting to stop Ao Firestone, but it was utterly ineffective.

"Not good!" Modan's heart sank.

On the other hand, Lin Yun's body, still propelled backward by Ao Firestone's previous attack, remained focused, eyes unwaveringly fixed on Ao Firestone. The blood-red glow from the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand, which had briefly faded, now began to shine ever more brilliantly.

"Kill!"

Without uttering a word, once he regained control of his body, he launched another assault on Ao Firestone, his body covered in blood, looking valiant to the extreme.

"This is bad..." Seeing this, Modan inwardly cursed the situation.

This Lin Yun, always causing trouble... He was struggling to hold off Ao Firestone, and with Lin Yun charging in, wasn't it tantamount to seeking death?

He had just praised Lin Yun's combat awareness in his mind, but did not expect Lin Yun to be so impulsive!

"Excellent!" On the other side, Ao Firestone watched this unfold and sneered.

With Lin Yun's cooperation, if he didn't beat the boy half to death, squandering his talent, it would be a disservice to the other's cooperation!

Thinking this, he launched another attack using the Sky Plundering Claw.

"Boom! Boom!"

Just when Modan was feeling heavy-hearted, the attacks of Lin Yun and Ao Firestone once again collided.

Naturally, Lin Yun's attacks were once again easily shattered, and powerful attacking forces bombarded Lin Yun's body, sending his body flying backward. Lin Yun's wounds looked even more miserable now.

"Fall back! Don't rush in anymore!" As Ao Firestone blocked another wave of attacks, Modan saw this scene, felt extremely furious, and yelled again.

Can't Lin Yun just endure for a while?

Couldn't he wait until Modan had broken through that powerful defensive shield Ao Firestone had released before he came up? It wouldn't be too late!

However, Lin Yun kept charging in recklessly, time and time again!

Knocked back again and again, Lin Yun's injuries grew more and more gruesome!

If it hadn't been for Modan's constant protection, Lin Yun would have probably died long ago!

The defensive shield released by Ao Firestone was also growing weaker under Modan's relentless attacks...

But that was enough.

Ao Firestone sneered inwardly.

Before this defensive shield disappeared, he had enough time to cripple Lin Yun. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't kill him, even killing Lin Yun wouldn't be a problem. In this way, the release of this defensive shield wouldn't have been in vain.

"Brother..."

"Lin Yun brother, are you alright..."

Inside the Bloodthirsty Sword, Little White and Little Blue saw Lin Yun looking so wretched and shouted with great anxiety.

"Little White, Little Blue, is the method you mentioned truly capable of enhancing my attack power?" Lin Yun did not respond to the concerns of Little White and Little Blue but asked again through telepathy.

"No problem at all."

"Brother, rest assured."

Little White and Little Blue said in unison.

Lin Yun stopped talking.

He continued to attack.

"Now is the time!"

After more than a dozen exchanges, Lin Yun's vitality had dropped to its lowest point. It looked like Ao Firestone's next attack, or the one after that, could completely obliterate Lin Yun. Suddenly, a gleam flashed deep within Lin Yun's eyes as he looked up at Ao Firestone.

At that moment, Ao Firestone had already launched his attack.

Lin Yun's attack had yet to be unleashed...

Ao Firestone was already accustomed to this.

From his perspective, Lin Yun's attacks were getting slower and slower, each one weaker than the last. It was a sign that Lin Yun's injuries were getting more severe, and he was becoming less and less capable of launching effective attacks.

Not only were the attacks getting slower, but Lin Yun's attack power was also getting weaker with each strike!

At first, Lin Yun's attacks were strong enough to demand his attention, but now, they were insignificant to him.

If it weren't for Modan's interference, he would have already destroyed Lin Yun by now.

However, in his view, it was just a matter of one more attack, or the one after that.

"Buzz~~~~~"

However, it was at this moment that the Bloodthirsty Sword in Lin Yun's hand emitted a piercing tremble. The blood light on it surged tenfold, and a terrifying force of attack was born in an instant, striking towards Ao Firestone like lightning.

"Boom!"

This attack carried with it a devastating force of destruction.

"What?" Modan had already despaired of Lin Yun's situation, but seeing this, he was taken aback and exclaimed in surprise.

"Damn it! This kid is playing tricks!" Ao Firestone's heart skipped a beat as he cursed inwardly.
