I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

It was only after seeing the clone make its move that Lin Yi realized his understanding of martial arts was still too shallow.

To beat someone with brute force without understanding the principles is a low-level approach.

The clone taught Lin Yi a lesson, but Lin Yi remained calm.

He does have a solid foundation, after all.

If you can't dodge a punch, then don't dodge it.

I'm really stubborn!

He also wanted the big eyeball in the sky to know that he was in a sorry state, so that he could entice the big eyeball to make a mistake.

It's okay to get hit occasionally.

Having figured this out, Lin Yi changed his strategy.

Instead of dodging, he charged forward to meet the clone's attack head-on, using only his left hand to slightly block it, lest the clone hit his head and crack it open.

He then slammed his fist fiercely into the clone's head, clearly trading injury for injury.

Logically speaking, a copy is just a copy, and there's nothing to be afraid of.

The clone instinctively dodged the punch, but because of the dodge, it also failed to hit Lin Yi, and was now at a disadvantage.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Yi made a move and the Ruyi Pearl instantly appeared in his hand. Lin Yi then smashed it down, creating a symmetrical shape on the head of the clone.

It's a pity that the Ruyi Jewel is round; if it were a cuboid, Lin Yi might have found it easier to use.

Whether a brick is round or square, it's a good brick if it can hit someone.

Su Xian'er: "..."

The Wish-Fulfilling Pearl possesses countless magical powers, and as the user's cultivation level increases, the Wish-Fulfilling Pearl can unlock even more functions.

It can be said that Su Xian'er still doesn't know the limits of the Ruyi Pearl.

But to everyone's surprise, Lin Yi, having gained the approval of the Ruyi Pearl, used it so roughly.

When it was in her hands, she cherished it dearly, afraid of neglecting it.

I wonder if the Ruyi Jewel will regret following the wrong master?

Chapter 448 You really have the heart to do that?

Lin Yi had known this principle since childhood: when two people meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail.

Before something happens, it's wise to avoid dangerous situations, but after something happens, only by bravely moving forward can one truly survive.

Therefore, Lin Yi did not consider defense at all in this battle.

The replicant is different. The mirror image replicated Lin Yi, but its consciousness is different from Lin Yi's. In fact, the advantages brought by the inhabitation of several divine wills are greater.

Even someone as skilled as Lin Yi couldn't master multiple immortal arts in a seamless and comprehensive way; he could only say he had some knowledge of them all.

As for martial arts, Lin Yi only knew a little bit about it. In the past, he often used his speed and reaction to bully his opponents, but he could not be considered a true master of martial arts.

However, despite the imbalance of power on paper, Lin Yi managed to injure the clone twice in actual combat.

The clones were furious. Although the gods were not the real beings who had descended, but only a wisp of their will, this will still represent their dignity. Now that they had been beaten by a mortal, how could they tolerate it?

"Death!"

The clone's eyes turned red, and it was determined to kill Lin Yi.

Su Xian'er hid in the corner and saw two afterimages rushing together, with fire and lightning, wind and rain, creating chaos in the small cave.

Each attack from the clone looks incredibly flashy, accompanied by wind, rain, thunder, and lightning. Its movements are as swift as willow catkins in the wind, impossible to track. Between its fists and feet, it seems to possess the power to shatter the heavens and the earth, inspiring fear in all who behold it.

Lin Yi's side looked much more ordinary, without many fancy special effects, just ordinary dodging and blocking.

But his fair hands, which looked like jade, were exceptionally hard. He clashed with the clone countless times, and the cave was filled with the sounds of flesh colliding, yet Lin Yi's hands didn't even have a single red mark left.

Neither side could gain the upper hand, but the commotion from their battle was considerable; each intense collision caused the ground to tremble and shake.

Su Xian'er did not directly participate in the battle; she could only stand aside trembling, having to dodge the flying sparks from time to time.

When gods fight, innocent bystanders suffer.

However, Su Xian'er is not a weak and naive girl. She knows that her current strength is not strong, but that is also her advantage.

The clone only had eyes for Lin Yi, and its mind was entirely focused on him. It probably thought that Su Xian'er was just a weak fox.

Why waste energy paying attention when you can just crush it with one step?

Su Xian'er went with the flow and quietly concealed her presence. She appeared to be trembling as she dodged the flying sparks, but in reality, she was hiding with a purpose. When she reached the corner, she transformed into a snow-white fox.

Su Xian'er enveloped her entire body with her divine soul power and began to lie dormant.

It has to be said, she's a real old fox; her stealth skills are truly impressive. Even Lin Yi didn't notice Su Xian'er's movements.

He faced considerable pressure alone with his clone.

The opponent copied his physical characteristics, namely high defense, high agility, and high attack.

This is Lin Yi's greatest advantage, while the opponent's core consists of several gods, so it can be said that the opponent is the one who is cheating.

Although Lin Yi managed to launch two attacks with a sneak attack and ferocity, the damage was not significant.

His defense was too strong, and Lin Yi finally understood the pain his opponent was going through.

Too tanky, can't be killed.

As the clone gradually takes control of the body, his advantages become apparent.

Lin Yi was far inferior in both martial arts and immortal cultivation. At first, he could barely suppress the clone by trading blows with his own and seize the main offensive position. However, his repeated attacks did not achieve significant results, and the balance of victory began to tilt in his opponent's favor.

Lin Yi originally thought he could hold back his trump cards to deal with Big Eyeball, but now it seems that without going all out, he can't even defeat this first-stage boss in front of him.

"Is this all the strength you have?"

The clone chuckled coldly, realizing he had figured out Lin Yi's background only to find that he was nothing special.

The God of War was very curious about how such a powerful physical body was cultivated.

Aside from this deal, Lin Yi has nothing else to offer.

That's how it appears to the gods.

He has a handsome appearance but no other skills; he is neither skilled in martial arts nor in the path of immortality.

This is what ordinary cultivators are like—too narrow-minded to achieve great things.

"Since you've run out of tricks, then prepare to die!"

The clone no longer wanted to fight Lin Yi. Having tested Lin Yi's level, it was about to unleash its ultimate move.

"Wind, Fire, Thunder, Water, Earth!"

The clone raised its hands to support the sky, and the power of the five elements rapidly gathered in its palms and merged together.

This move left Lin Yi completely stunned.

Isn't this just the Five Spirits Returning to Their Origin?

Of course, the Five Elements Returning to the Origin version in front of us is a plus version, which is many levels better than the Five Elements Returning to the Origin version that Lin Yi learned.

There's nothing we can do about it. Gods are in heaven, a level above mortals, and their understanding of the Dao is different.

For an ordinary person to cultivate diligently in the mortal world and comprehend such a divine skill that integrates the five elements is already quite remarkable.

Mortals cannot, like immortals, gather the five elements with a single thought. Mortals can only rely on their own bodies to painstakingly gather the true energy of the five elements within them. If they are not careful, they can easily injure themselves. How can they do it as easily as immortals?

The opponent possesses the will of six great gods and the will of the Heavenly Dao. The Five Elements Returning to the Origin summoned by them is incredibly powerful.

However, Lin Yi also gained insights from observing his Five Elements Returning to the Origin.

After all, he had been practicing the Five Elements Return to Origin technique for a long time and was particularly familiar with it.

He has always simply compressed the energy. The more times he compresses it, the stronger the resulting true energy becomes. However, the process involves a lot of loss, which is equivalent to converting five units of ordinary true energy into one unit of Five Spirits True Energy.

But the clone demonstrated to him what the Five Elements' mutual generation meant. The five spiritual energies were constantly transforming as they converged.

It's equivalent to five units of spiritual energy converging into ten units of fused spiritual energy.

It saves spiritual energy while greatly increasing power, and while greatly increasing power, it still retains the characteristics of the five elements.

From this perspective, the clone is indeed far superior to Lin Yi.

Moreover, the opponent attacked very quickly. The clone did not have time to charge up its power. Once it was almost ready, it threw a punch at Lin Yi. This punch seemed to shatter even space itself.

Lin Yi had no way to dodge this punch. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared when he saw the Five Elements Return to the Source appear. Before the clone could throw a punch, he first condensed a tortoise shell shield on his hand.

This minor spell came from the Turtle Prime Minister. By today's standards, the Turtle Prime Minister's cultivation level is very low, but his spell is very practical.

If Lin Yi had used it to protect his entire body, he certainly wouldn't have been able to withstand the clone's attack. However, Lin Yi concentrated all his true energy into his right hand, essentially holding a small shield the size of his palm.

When the clone threw a punch, he didn't back down and went up to it just as well.

"Now!"

Su Xian'er also seized the opportunity.

She only has a split second to make her move, and that opportunity only comes when the clone attacks.

Simply ignoring her wasn't enough; he had to confront Lin Yi at this crucial moment, so that even if he discovered her, he wouldn't have time to react effectively.

Similarly, Su Xian'er only has one chance to strike. If she fails to inflict effective damage, she will also be in danger.

At this moment, all three made their own choices. Lin Yi faced the challenge head-on, while the clone intended to deliver a fatal blow. Su Xian'er launched a sneak attack.

The first thing to come into contact with was the clone's iron fist and the tortoise shell shield constructed by Lin Yi. The tortoise shell shield shattered instantly upon contact, and the clone even had a contemptuous smile on its face.

How could mere mortal magic withstand the overwhelming might of heaven?

This is what happens when you fight against the gods!

Little did he know that Lin Yi had long anticipated this outcome; it was impossible to block immortal magic with mortal techniques.

However, he doesn't require blocking everything; he just wants to weaken it a little.

He carried the rest himself.

As their fists collided, Lin Yi heard a cracking sound—the sound of bones breaking.

This guy truly lives up to his reputation as someone blessed with the will of a martial god. The various immortal spiritual energies that enveloped him were merely an outward appearance; the inner strength was released into Lin Yi's body the moment their fists collided, and then surged upwards along his meridians.
