Cultivation begins in Qingfeng Market.

escape.

Once the thought appeared, it could no longer be suppressed.

Xuan Yinzi acted decisively, biting his tongue and spitting out a mouthful of blood essence to unleash the Xuan Yin Secret Technique—Blood Spirit Escape.

His figure transformed into a streak of blood-red light, fleeing hundreds of miles away and disappearing into the night sky.

Lin Zhao smiled and calmly tossed another handful of spirit stones into the Nine Luminaries Thunder Pool.

Within the Thunder Pool, the spiritual liquid is slowly replenishing.

The spiritual liquid has been restored to 50%, and it will be fully replenished in a few more hours.

Lin Zhao urged the Azure Scale to follow at a leisurely pace.

At the same time, the sensors locked onto his location.

Xuan Yinzi was flying away at breakneck speed, three hundred li, four hundred li—an hour later, he was already five hundred li away from this place.

Lin Zhao pinpointed the opponent's location once again.

Deep in a desolate mountain.

He's hidden again.

Lin Zhao put away the spirit boat, unfolded his magic domain, concealed his aura, and approached silently.

Another Golden Phoenix Arrow was fired.

boom!!!

That barren mountain was blown apart!

Xuan Yinzi rushed out of the ruins, his hair disheveled and his face covered in blood.

He's completely gone mad.

Because he discovered a terrible fact—no matter where he fled to or how well he hid, Lin Zhao could find him!

How did Lin Zhao find him, a distance of hundreds of miles?

What kind of crazy trick is this?!

He couldn't figure it out.

But he knew he couldn't escape.

The young man's Golden Phoenix Bow was aimed at him with every arrow.

The teleportation spell pressed closer and closer.

There was no way to escape.

Unable to hide or be attacked, one can only passively take the beating.

How can we fight this battle?!

Xuan Yinzi looked up at the sky and roared, his voice shaking the surrounding wilderness.

Then he turned around and stared intently at the streak of light in the distance.

A resolute look appeared in his eyes.

-----

The cat-and-mouse game continued for the next few days.

Lin Zhao maintained a distance of twenty to fifty li, firing Golden Phoenix Arrows one after another.

A total of seven Golden Phoenix Arrows, each comparable to a Core Formation stage attack.

His domain of magic is completely meaningless to the Golden Phoenix Arrow, which can attack from extremely long distances.

Left with no other option, Xuan Yinzi used the third-tier magic weapon, the Nine-Condensed Yin Bone Shield, to withstand seven Golden Phoenix Arrows.

Even a third-tier defensive magic item couldn't withstand it; the cracks on the shield surface increased, and the spiritual light grew dimmer.

By the seventh shot, the shield had already shown obvious damage, with several cracks extending from the edges to the center, and it looked like it was about to shatter.

The damage caused by the Golden Phoenix Arrow to the surrounding area was even more shocking.

Seven barren mountains, seven mushroom clouds.

The once rolling mountains now have seven huge gaps.

At those breaches, the rocks were blasted into dust, deep craters were blasted into the ground, and the surrounding trees were all reduced to debris.

Under the moonlight, this barren mountain looked as if it had been plowed by a meteorite shower, leaving it scarred and devastated.

Moreover, the terrifying spiritual power left behind by the Golden Phoenix Arrow will not dissipate for a hundred years without the intervention of cultivators, adding seven more terrifying forbidden zones to the area for ordinary cultivators and mortals.

Fortunately, this is the edge of the Tongming Domain, and there is no human habitation for miles around.

What a wonderful place to bury bones.

Lin Zhao stood atop a mountain that had not yet been destroyed, gazing at the swaying figure in the distance, a smile playing on his lips.

Victory is in sight.

Two more arrows, three at most, and that man won't be able to hold on.

But he didn't notice that a strange black light flashed in Xuan Yinzi's eyes.

He was also preparing a backup plan.

He quietly grasped the jet-black Xuan Yin Ghost Hand.

The golden core within his body was trembling violently.

Previously, Xuan Yinzi used the power of his Golden Core to control the magic weapon Nine-Condensed Yin Bone Shield to block the Golden Phoenix Arrow, but the cost of doing so was too high.

The surface of his golden core was covered with cracks, and every time he used a magic weapon, golden spiritual power would dissipate from it.

He made a decision—to shatter his elixir.

Unleash the strongest attack.

After this attack, the Golden Core will be completely shattered.

Hundreds of years of arduous cultivation vanished in an instant.

But he couldn't care less about any of that now.

If we don't fight with all our might, Lin Zhao will really wear us down to death.

Xuan Yinzi stared at the young figure in the distance, his eyes as cold as a venomous snake.

He killed tens of thousands of people in his lifetime.

He couldn't believe he would die at the hands of a junior in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

He is waiting.

Waiting for an opportunity.

---

The opportunity soon arrived.

Lin Zhao approached him once again.

Xuan Yinzi suddenly activated the last few top-grade second-tier talismans—

Those talismans were his most treasured possessions, each one incredibly valuable, and he activated them all without hesitation.

The talisman exploded, transforming into various colored spiritual lights that enveloped his figure, causing his speed to surge!

Forty li!

Thirty li!

Twenty li!

Lin Zhao's pupils contracted slightly.

wrong.

Why did this person suddenly… He didn't have time to think, instinctively drawing back the Golden Phoenix Bow, the eighth Golden Phoenix Arrow about to be fired—

But Xuan Yinzi was one step ahead of him.

boom--!!!

The cracked golden core inside his body suddenly exploded!

In an instant, his aura surged! He climbed all the way from the peak of Foundation Establishment, breaking through that powerful threshold—the early stage of Core Formation! Peak of the early stage of Core Formation!

A terrifying pressure erupted from his body, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of thirty miles surged wildly, forcibly absorbed into his body!

Open the realm of law!

Xuanyin Legal Domain!

A dark black domain suddenly expanded from his center, covering an area of ​​thirty miles in radius!

Within the domain, a chilling wind howled, and ghostly shadows loomed. The black yin energy writhed and spread like living creatures, devouring all life!

Lin Zhao's Four Elements and Five Sacred Mountains Dharma Domain was only ten miles long, and it was just swallowed up by the Profound Yin Dharma Domain.

The moment the two domains collided, Lin Zhao felt a tremendous tearing force—the Xuan Yin domain was frantically devouring his spiritual power, like a hungry beast tearing apart its prey.

Lin Zhao's expression changed.

He activated the Four Elements and Five Sacred Mountains Dharma Domain with all his might, and the illusory images of five mountains appeared around him, with five-colored light flowing around them.

The power of the four elements intertwined into a net, and the four colors of spiritual light surged endlessly, forcefully resisting the erosion of the Xuan Yin Dharma Domain.

At the edge of the legal domain, two forces are fiercely pulling together.

Each collision creates a visible ripple of energy.

The ripples spread across the ground, sending pebbles flying and cracking the surface.

The spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles was frantically fought over by the two domains, forming a massive energy storm in the air.

At the eye of the storm, black and white lights flashed alternately, like two ancient ferocious beasts fighting.

Lin Zhao retreated rapidly, simultaneously activating the Five Sacred Mountains Shifting Technique.

Five-colored light shone on his body; it was the Five Sacred Mountains Shifting Technique.

He had no intention of going head-to-head with the madman who had shattered the core.

Without the aid of formations outside, his strength was ultimately inferior to that of a true Core Formation cultivator.

The Law Domain is also being completely suppressed; to fight it head-on now would be suicidal.

go!

The light from the Five Mountains Shifting Technique grew brighter and brighter, and his figure began to become ethereal—

"Trying to leave?!"

Xuan Yinzi roared angrily.

He had waited for this opportunity for far too long; how could he possibly let Lin Zhao escape so easily?

Xuan Yin Ghost Hand, unleash!

The palm-sized, jet-black bone hand flew out from his palm and grew larger as it was carried by the wind!

The pressure of the third-tier magic weapon suddenly erupted, and the ghost hand instantly crossed a distance of twenty miles, appearing a hundred feet away from Lin Zhao!

Lin Zhao's pupils suddenly contracted.

So fast!

He mobilized the power of the Dharma Domain, setting up multiple energy barriers in front of him.

But those barriers were as flimsy as paper in front of the Xuan Yin Ghost Hand.
