Chapter 183 Lin He vs. Barbarian Beard

The first to appear were two pitch-black fireballs. The Heavenly Corpse Fire was extremely fast and reached Lin He first.

However, Lin He remained completely calm upon seeing this. He simply emitted two strange beams of black light, which landed on the black fireball and caused a disturbance inside the fireball, making it extremely unstable and greatly reducing its power.

This is naturally one of the secret techniques mentioned in the Xuan Yin Jing for dealing with the Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire.

This is not to say that the Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire is easy to break, but rather that the technique that Xuan Gu gave him was flawed in itself, and was a backup plan left by Xuan Gu.

The black fireball, which had originally taken shape, became unstable inside and its power could not be gathered together. It then exploded and was easily blocked by the golden Ruyi that Lin He took out.

Immediately following was the enormous fiery tiger, which pounced forward and exploded just before reaching Lin He. A huge ball of crimson flames burst forth, and the rolling heat wave completely enveloped Lin He.

Seeing this, Ji Yin let out a sinister laugh. Still not quite at ease, he commanded five more evil spirits to attack. Just then, two large, emerald-green hands suddenly flew out, like a shield blocking Lin He's path. After a series of crackling explosions, the smoke dissipated, and Lin He's figure reappeared. However, he was completely calm, as the attack had not harmed him in the slightest.

Ji Yin's face darkened, then his eyes narrowed as if he had seen something extremely surprising. He quickly rubbed his eyes and looked closely.

The thing blocking Lin He's way was a gigantic demon corpse, its body emerald green, with exposed fangs and sharp, emerald green claws. It was the Heavenly Capital Demon Corpse that the Extreme Yin Old Demon had created while cultivating the Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire.

However, the aura of the corpse in front of them was extremely terrifying, possessing the strength of the early Nascent Soul stage.

"You stole my Heavenly Capital Demon Corpse, wasn't that enough? Now you're using it against me? This is utterly outrageous!"

The Heavenly Demon Corpse also has weaknesses, but Lin He, who is well-versed in the Xuan Yin Scripture, was naturally prepared for them, especially since it was only being used to deal with the five evil spirits.

The giant demon corpse took a single step and was seven or eight zhang away, facing the five late-stage Core Formation evil spirits. Soon, the two sides were locked in combat.

The battle between Ji Yin and Lin He was complicated, but it actually only lasted a very short time.

Although Manhuzi, Wan Tianming, and the others were guarding the cave entrance, waiting for the treasure to appear, they also used their divine sense to check on the battle situation over there.

Seeing that the Yin Demon had used all his tricks and seemed ready to fight to the death, Nangong Wan and Qing Yi were both shocked, but dared not show it.

Manhuzi and Wan Tianming both let out a soft exclamation, glancing at the giant demon corpse with some surprise. They had thought Lin He would have to pay a considerable price to escape, but unexpectedly, Lin He was completely unharmed and even managed to retrieve a Nascent Soul stage refined corpse.

"Good!" Wan Tianming didn't let go of this opportunity to ridicule the demonic path. "Fellow Daoist Lin is indeed valiant! Extreme Yin, even if you use all your methods, you can't harm Fellow Daoist Lin in the slightest."

Ridiculed by Wan Tianming and having his plans ruined by the demonic corpse he had created in the past, Ji Yin's face turned extremely ugly, and he unconsciously clenched his fist on the Blazing Sun Fan.

"I, Wu, refuse to believe in fate today and am determined to fight you!"

Just as Ji Yin was about to make a move, another muffled thunderclap came from inside the cave, causing him to slow down. He quickly flew to the top of the cave entrance.

Not only him, but Lin He also rushed over. The eight of them simultaneously used various defensive magic treasures and ancient artifacts to resist the strange cold air at the cave entrance while vigilantly looking around, appearing extremely wary.

At this moment, a piercing friction sound rang out, and with two whooshing sounds, two beams of light, one yellow and one white, shot out from the blue flames in the cave.

Everyone rushed to grab the treasures closest to them, with Wan Tianming, Qing Yi, Nangong Wan, and Ji Yin all grabbing at the yellow light at the same time.

With a wave of his hand, Wan Tianming sent a purple fire dragon flying past, baring its fangs and claws.

Qingyi, Jiyin, and Nangong Wan hurriedly tried to stop them, but Wan Tianming's face flashed with a fierce look. He opened his mouth, and three purple, crystal-clear beads flew towards the three people opposite him.

"Ah—Heavenly Thunder!"

Upon seeing the inconspicuous purple bead, Ji Yin and Qing Yi avoided it like the plague and quickly retreated.

Only Nangong Wan was not afraid at all. Instead, she controlled the red hand to grab the yellow light first. Then the purple bead collided with the red hand, made a muffled sound, and disappeared.

Nangong Wan also breathed a sigh of relief. She had only taken the risk because Lin He had told her that it was fake lightning. She put away the jade pendant that had been formed from the yellow light.

At this moment, the purple fire dragon was already wagging its tail and coming. Nangong Wan quickly condensed a red hand to meet the purple fire dragon. After a loud explosion, Nangong Wan groaned and her face turned a little pale. She felt her blood surging. She had obviously suffered a small loss, but she had finally succeeded in obtaining the treasure.

"Fake thunder!"

Ji Yin and Qing Yi also realized what was happening and cursed him under their breath. In their rage, they stood in front of Wan Tianming.

Wan Tianming glanced at Nangong Wan, his sharp gaze sweeping over the three people opposite him. Then, a powerful aura of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator appeared. The three people from Jiyin felt this aura and their expressions changed. They couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Just as another great battle was about to unfold, two dazzling golden lights suddenly burst forth from not far away. The golden light was extremely bright, and Wan Tianming and his companions couldn't help but look up. They saw two golden figures suddenly collide with each other, and Wan Tianming and his companions were stunned.

Rewind a few seconds, just as Wan Tianming and the three others were vying for the treasure, Manhuzi, Lin He, Mutengzi, and Tianwuzi also set their sights on the white light.

Mu Tengzi quickly manipulated the willow branch magic weapon, and a thick green thread flew out, about to roll up the white light.

Tian Wuzi also manipulated a short ruler, heading towards the white light.

Upon seeing this, the bearded man let out a wild laugh, activated his Heaven-Supporting Demonic Art, and golden scales covered his entire body. Relying on his strong physical body and powerful defense, he actually withstood the attack of the magic weapon and reached out to grab the white light.

As expected, the Heaven-Supporting Demon Art lived up to its reputation as the number one defensive demonic art in the Chaotic Star Sea. When the willow branch magic weapon and the short ruler magic weapon struck the barbarian's body and collided violently with the golden scales, they were unable to break through its defenses.

The bearded man let out a wild laugh and stretched out a thick arm to grab at the white light.

Just then, a blue figure also appeared near the white light, reaching out to grab it as well.

"Get out of here!"

With a low, domineering shout, the man with the wild beard emitted an even brighter golden light around him. He then lunged forward, transforming into a shimmering golden figure as he crashed into the enemy.

Seeing that the bearded man was ready to fight to the death, Mutengzi and Tengoko, who had originally intended to compete, quickly retreated, afraid of being hit by that terrifying golden light.

However, Lin He did not dodge. Instead, a layer of golden armor appeared around his body. Then, he took out the Spirit-Nourishing Talisman, which was made from the essence of the seventh-level demon beast, the Mountain Ape. The next moment, Lin He transformed into a strange half-human, half-demon.

After doing all that, Lin He immediately grabbed at the white light without any regard for anything else.

"You're asking for it!"

The bearded man thought that this fellow Daoist Lin was too bold, daring to take the treasure with his back turned. Although he didn't know what methods the other party had used to become in this strange state, he was obviously more confident in his Heaven-Supporting Demon Art.

The next moment, the golden light transformed from the barbarian beard collided directly with Lin He, and the two golden lights suddenly burst forth!
