After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Lin Fengmian inwardly complained, but remained calm on the surface.

He took a deep breath and secretly made plans in his mind.

Now that we've been exposed, we can only win, we can't afford to lose.

After all, he's invested so much time in Su Zhenzhen, and he still hasn't won her over.

If we lose, wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted?

Moreover, if the Su family thinks he's a good-for-nothing, it will be even harder for him to get close to Su Zhenzhen in the future.

Lin Fengmian made up his mind and his gaze fell on Li Yuhun.

but--

He wasn't prepared to reveal too much of his hand.

The Taixiao Mirror talisman cannot be used, the magnificent sword energy cannot be exposed, and the Starfall Sword Manual must be kept hidden.

What did he use?

Lin Fengmian's lips curled into a smile.

Fists and feet.

His physique is now comparable to that of a second-tier body cultivator, and he can fight against a Foundation Establishment cultivator with his physical strength alone.

Plus--

Lin Fengmian silently recited the mantra, and his spiritual energy quietly circulated within his body.

A scorching power slowly condensed in his palm.

The Nine Yang Divine Seal.

This was a secret technique he had comprehended after spending many days studying the "Yin-Yang Harmony Chapter" in the jade pendant space.

By concentrating pure Yang energy into the fist and palm, its power is astonishing.

Moreover, this secret technique is used in a completely discreet manner, so that others cannot detect its secrets at all.

It's just right.

Lin Fengmian made up his mind and walked towards Li Yuhun.

His steps were measured, and his expression was calm.

It was as if he wasn't going to fight to the death, but rather to attend an ordinary date.

Li Yuhun watched Lin Fengmian approach step by step, his dark green eyes narrowing slightly.

He looked the young man in the blue robe up and down, a disdainful smile playing on his lips.

"Late stage of Foundation Establishment?"

He scoffed, his tone full of contempt:

"Even a pseudo-Core Formation cultivator is no match for me, how dare you, a mere late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, come up here to die?"

He crossed his arms and looked down at Lin Fengmian:

"Boy, I advise you to kneel down and kowtow obediently to avoid suffering physical pain."

Lin Fengmian did not answer.

He just kept walking forward.

His pace was neither hurried nor slow, each step steady and powerful.

Upon seeing this, Li Yuhun frowned, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.

"court death!"

He snorted coldly, and the green ghost flames around him suddenly surged!

The flames surged and enveloped his entire body, emanating a chilling aura of death!

He raised his withered hand and struck out at Lin Fengmian!

"Netherworld Ghost Claw!"

Five green flames coalesced into a gigantic ghost claw, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek, and viciously grabbed at Lin Fengmian!

This attack was even more ferocious than the one against Ling Xiao!

Clearly, although Li Yuhun spoke with contempt, he showed no mercy when he attacked!

A gasp of surprise immediately erupted from the audience!

The power of that claw is terrifying!

Even a pseudo-core cultivator might not be able to withstand it!

however--

Lin Fengmian did not dodge.

He didn't even stop walking.

He simply raised his fists, and two dazzling golden lights suddenly shone from the surface of his fists!

The golden light was dazzling and extremely powerful, like two small suns gathering on his fist!

"Nine Yang Divine Seal!"

Lin Fengmian let out a low shout and threw out both fists, slamming them hard towards the green ghost claw!

The wind howled as the fist struck, and golden light shone brightly!

Upon seeing this, Li Yuhun snorted coldly in his heart.

He had just defeated Ling Xiao, who was at the False Core stage, in three moves. He was in high spirits and full of arrogance. How could he possibly back down now?

Moreover, the Netherworld Ghost Fire Technique he cultivates is an Earth-rank technique with unparalleled power. Even a pseudo-core cultivator cannot withstand three moves, let alone a waste in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

He made a hand seal again, and the green ghost fire frantically condensed in his palm, transforming into an even more sinister and vicious palm print!

The palm print faintly emitted the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling, exuding a chilling aura of death!

"Netherworld Poison Palm!"

Li Yuhun roared and struck out with his palm!

The palm print grew longer in the wind, transforming into the size of a millstone, and carrying with it a sky full of green ghost fire, slamming it down fiercely towards Lin Fengmian!

The force of the fist met the force of the palm, and the two collided directly!

however--

The next moment, the smile on Li Yuhun's face froze.

His invincible and insidious poison palm, when it encountered Lin Fengmian's extremely yang and powerful fist wind, was like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun, unable to resist in the slightest!

"Hiss hiss hiss—"

The green will-o'-the-wisps were as if they had met their nemesis in the face of the golden light, melting and evaporating wildly!

The insidious palm print shattered inch by inch under the impact of the golden fist wind, turning into countless green sparks that dissipated into the air!

"What?!"

Li Yuhun's pupils shrank sharply, his face filled with disbelief!

How is that possible?!

His own Netherworld Ghost Fire was drawn from the cold power of the Nine Netherworlds. It was extremely insidious and domineering. If an ordinary cultivator touched even a trace of it, the cold energy would penetrate into their bones. At best, their cultivation would be greatly damaged, and at worst, they would die on the spot!

But the person in front of me—

He actually shattered his own palm print with a single punch?!

Lin Fengmian looked at the dissipating green ghost fire and immediately understood.

The opponent's technique cultivates the power of the Nine Netherworlds, which is extremely yin and poisonous.

The pure Yang power condensed from his own cultivation of the "Yin-Yang Harmony Chapter" is extremely strong and yang, making it a natural nemesis of such Yin and evil power!

When the other person encounters me, it's like a mouse seeing a cat!

Lin Fengmian smiled, feeling much more at ease.

At this moment, Li Yuhun was already in a state of utter panic.

Seeing that the golden fist wind was still strong and was heading straight for him, he hurriedly raised his spiritual energy to protect himself!

A thick green shield materialized in front of him, shimmering with spiritual light and possessing astonishing defensive power!

however--

"Break it!"

Lin Fengmian roared and slammed his fists hard against the green shield!

"Bang--!"

A muffled thud!

The seemingly indestructible green shield trembled violently and cracked under Lin Fengmian's fists!

Li Yuhun felt an overwhelming force, which forced him to stagger back several steps, leaving two deep furrows in the ground beneath his feet!

He staggered to his feet, looked down at his hands, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

His protective spiritual energy was actually cracked by a punch from a Foundation Establishment stage youth?

How is this possible?!

He raised his head and stared intently at Lin Fengmian, his eyes filled with horror.

The opponent's technique actually counters my technique!

Moreover, the pure Yang power contained within that golden light was incredibly refined, making it the nemesis of his Netherworld Ghost Fire!

Li Yuhun gritted her teeth, feeling unwilling.

He doesn't believe in superstitions!

How could someone who had cultivated the Netherworld Ghost Fire Technique for twenty years be countered by a mere Foundation Establishment stage kid?

He took a deep breath, his spiritual energy surging wildly within him, and his hands formed hand seals once more!

This time, he used an even more insidious and vicious technique—

"Netherworld Soul-Devouring Claw!"

With a roar, countless green ghost claws suddenly appeared in the void in front of him!
