Chapter 200: Chapter 38: A Punch, A Red Dust Immortal
With a single strike, he decapitated a Red Dust Immortal. The sheer force of it shocked the other three Red Dust Immortals, their expressions changing instantly. Without hesitation, they distanced themselves, and then, with a loud crash, a waterfall-like force of Dao enveloped them, protecting them from further harm.
Only then did they glare at Lin Jiufeng in fury.
"What did you just do?" the Red Dust Immortal from the Yasha Clan roared, his eyes fixed on Lin Jiufeng with deep wariness. He no longer dared to underestimate him.
The Red Dust Immortal from the Shura Clan stared at the decapitated body of the Taigu Wang Clan's Immortal, his voice trembling as he said, "His primordial spirit was completely obliterated, with no chance of being saved. He didn't even react in time; he was killed instantly."
The Red Dust Immortal from the Skeleton Clan's primordial spirit flames flickered as he fixed his gaze on Lin Jiufeng, growling, "This young man is incredibly strange. What he just used was spatial teleportation—he's comprehended the Dao of Space."
The Skeleton Clan's Immortal examined the body of the Taigu Wang Clan's Immortal and discovered a shocking truth. He inhaled sharply, "Not just the Dao of Space—there's also the Dao of Time in that strike. The integration of time and space is seamless. In just a fraction of a second, it unleashed such terrifying power, catching him off guard. We must be cautious."
Truly, as expected of Red Dust Immortals—just by examining the corpse, they were able to uncover the secret behind Lin Jiufeng's strike.
"Form an alliance! We must work together, using our Red Dust Immortal Dao to cover the area and leave him no room to escape. We must crush him with absolute power!" the Yasha Clan's Red Dust Immortal declared decisively. Without hesitation, he activated his Dao, and with a resounding boom, the Red Dust Immortal Dao spread out like a vast river, engulfing the entire area for miles around.
It wasn't just the Yasha Clan's Immortal. The Immortals of the Skeleton and Shura Clans reacted instantly. Knowing the threat Lin Jiufeng posed, they quickly followed suit, each unleashing their own Red Dust Immortal Dao, covering the entire area. This way, any movements Lin Jiufeng made would be locked down, even if he wielded the Dao of Time and Space.
Seeing this, Lin Jiufeng decisively returned to the side of Sword God Emperor Liu, his eyes fixed on the three Red Dust Immortals.
He wasn't hesitant to continue the fight, but such an unexpected move could only be used once. The three Red Dust Immortals were now prepared, and his time-space sword wouldn't be effective against them anymore.
Boom!
The sound of the Dao's roar echoed through the air, and the three Red Dust Immortals' eyes flashed with intense determination, their glares sharp and filled with murderous intent.
"As expected, my ancestor was right. If you are allowed to grow, the human race will rise through your hands. You are terrifying—able to comprehend both the Dao of Time and the Dao of Space within the Sixteen Forbidden Realm. I have never heard of such a thing. You've earned my respect, but I must kill you!" The Skeleton Clan's Red Dust Immortal's primordial spirit flames flared as two terrifying beams of light shot toward Lin Jiufeng, locking him down and ensuring he wouldn't have any chance to strike him down. Meanwhile, he continued to exert pressure with his Dao.
"You're too monstrous, making us uneasy. You must be eliminated. The Dimensional Battlefield cannot allow someone like you to exist!" the Yasha Clan's Red Dust Immortal said coldly, similarly locking onto Lin Jiufeng, increasing his pressure, giving him no opportunity to retaliate.
The Shura Clan's Red Dust Immortal only said one word: "Kill!"
The three Red Dust Immortals, all seasoned warriors, quickly analyzed Lin Jiufeng's strengths and weaknesses. They knew that if they didn't understand him or were caught off guard, they could easily fall victim to Lin Jiufeng's time-space sword.
But now, with the three of them working together and locking him down, Lin Jiufeng wouldn't be able to unleash his sword's full power.
This was also a result of the massive difference in cultivation levels between Lin Jiufeng and the Red Dust Immortals. If Lin Jiufeng were at the Immortal level, he would simply charge in, wielding his broken sword to strike them down one by one.
However, under the current circumstances, with the three Red Dust Immortals targeting him and the overwhelming force of their Dao pressing down on him, Lin Jiufeng stood firm, letting the Dao's power wash over him. His body remained unyielding, and he stared at the three Red Dust Immortals, a cold smile creeping across his face. "Do you think you've got me?"
"We've raised all our guard now. You can no longer use sneaky tricks. The Dao will crush you. What will you use to resist?" the Skeleton Clan's Red Dust Immortal sneered.
"Good point, but not enough," Lin Jiufeng replied bluntly.
"Without the support of the Dao of Time and Space, what can you fight us with? This body?" the Shura Clan's Red Dust Immortal mocked.
"This body is quite well-refined and doesn't belong to the strength of the Sixteen Forbidden Realm, but unfortunately, after breaking through the Eighteen Forbidden Realm, battles are no longer about raw combat. Only barbarians fight like that. We don't need to lay a hand on you; our Dao alone is enough to crush you to death!" The Yasha Clan's Red Dust Immortal looked at Lin Jiufeng arrogantly, dismissing his body. Could it withstand the relentless flow of the Dao, even for a moment?
The three Red Dust Immortals were absolutely confident, and Lin Jiufeng couldn't help but chuckle at their arrogance. "You think you're relying solely on the power of the heavens and the Dao?"
The three Red Dust Immortals glanced at Lin Jiufeng indifferently, as if looking at a dead man.
As for the Sword God Emperor Liu behind him, he was still healing—he seemed more dead than alive.
"I hope you can still maintain your composure after this," Lin Jiufeng coldly sneered, then turned to ask Taiyuan Immortal, "In the past ninety years, how many times has Taiyuan Immortal Manor absorbed energy to activate the Forbidden Dao Array?"
"More than a dozen times!" Taiyuan Immortal answered decisively.
"That's enough. Activate it now!" Lin Jiufeng ordered without hesitation, his eyes filled with cold, murderous intent as he turned back to the three Red Dust Immortals. He was eager to see if, without the support of the heavenly Dao, their bodies could withstand his blows.
Boom!!!
The next moment, a terrifying black energy surged from Lin Jiufeng's body, quickly spreading outward, engulfing the surrounding area in an instant, expanding over a thousand miles.
Boom!
The Dao pressure that had been pressing down on Lin Jiufeng vanished, dissipating into nothingness.
The three Red Dust Immortals, who had been watching him from above with indifference, suddenly changed color. Panic and confusion flashed across their faces.
"I can't feel the Dao anymore."
"What is this? It has blocked the Dao of Heaven. I can't unleash any of my Dao powers."
"This black energy—get away from it quickly!"
The three Red Dust Immortals realized the danger, their hearts filled with fear. This was something that had never happened before, something they had never even imagined. Their Dao powers, built over a lifetime of cultivation, were failing.
But fortunately, they were experienced, and quickly recognized that the black energy from Lin Jiufeng's body was the cause. They immediately tried to retreat, aiming to flee a thousand miles away.
But Lin Jiufeng was already moving.
His battle-hardened body erupted with power. The Demon God Refinement Technique activated, and the massive figure of a serpent-bodied human, one hundred feet tall, materialized behind him—his Law of Heaven and Earth.
In an instant, Lin Jiufeng struck with three punches, the Law of Heaven and Earth carrying sixteen hundred strands of divine and demonic power, smashing forward.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The three Red Dust Immortals were instantly crushed by the torrent of power, blood splattering, their primordial spirits extinguished like rain, with no chance of survival.
One punch for each Red Dust Immortal.
