Chapter 139: Twin Dragons

Back then, Lin Xiao was merely at the Great Circle of the Foundation Establishment realm. Yet, after a few years of separation, he had actually reached the Great Circle of the Core Formation realm, with faint traces of the aura belonging to the Nascent Soul realm lingering about him.

He was merely a hair's breadth away from the Nascent Soul realm. Once he pierced through that thin veil, he could leap forward and become a powerhouse of the Nascent Soul realm.

Throughout the entire Clear Water Kingdom, how many powerhouses of the Nascent Soul realm could there possibly be?

A powerful aura swept outward, forming vortexes of wind around him. At this moment, a terrifying intent to kill radiated from Lin Xiao. He had already recognized that the person before him was the enemy who had murdered his son. The ancestor of the Lin family had also perished due to the death of Lin Tian.

This enmity was irreconcilable and could only be washed away with blood!

Sensing the terrifying killing intent emanating from Lin Xiao, Yin Tianfang's expression turned extremely solemn. With a light tap of his toes against the void, his figure suddenly vanished from the air.

" brat, where do you think you are going!" Cold gleams flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes as he struck out with a single palm. A gigantic hand condensed in mid-air and crashed down toward the dense forest below.

Wherever the massive palm passed, towering ancient trees were instantly shattered into countless fragments, turning into fine dust beneath the terrifying shockwave.

Boom!

Rumbling echoes reverberated ceaselessly, the earth trembled, and a terrifying tempest surged outward like ocean waves. Within a radius of a hundred miles, everything was razed to the ground. Amidst the billowing dust and smoke, a figure was sent flying in a disheveled state.

"Pfft!" Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Yin Tianfang performed a series of flips in the air before finally steadying his footing. Wiping away the blood at the corner of his mouth, he flicked his body into motion and streaked toward the distance.

"Today you have no wings to fly; I will make you pay with your life for my son!" A chilling voice echoed in the air. With a flash of his figure, Lin Xiao pursued Yin Tianfang.

The Lin Xiao of today was no longer comparable to the one of the past. In the span of just a few short years, his cultivation had surprisingly reached such a terrifying realm.

Yin Tianfang was in an extremely wretched state at the moment, his clothes tattered, his hair disheveled, and his body covered in dust. Sensing the terrifying aura pursuing him from behind, his expression grew increasingly grave.

"To think he is this terrifying." Yin Tianfang glanced back at Lin Xiao behind him, feeling utterly shocked by the latter's horrifying cultivation level. However, shock was just shock; Yin Tianfang's speed was not slow in the least. Being hunted down by a powerhouse at the Great Circle of the Core Formation realm, he was running for his life with every ounce of strength he could muster.

Yet, even though his speed had reached his absolute limit, he still could not shake off Lin Xiao. Flashing swiftly through the jungle, Yin Tianfang's gaze flickered as thoughts raced through his mind, yet he could not come up with a single way to escape. His heart inevitably sank to the very bottom.

Behind him, Lin Xiao wore an icy expression. Terrifying demonic Qi coiled around him, and wherever he passed, the tyrannical demonic energy destroyed everything in its path.

Boundless fury and hatred drove Lin Xiao into a state of madness. The aura around him appeared fierce and violent; his eyes were blood-red, his black hair danced wildly, and he stared fixedly at the fleeing Yin Tianfang ahead, his face contorted into a somewhat ferocious look.

"Die!" With a frigid expression, Lin Xiao clenched his hand into a fist. Demonic Qi surged to the heavens, transforming into a demonic dragon that roared as it charged toward Yin Tianfang.

Yin Tianfang's expression tightened. He slapped his storage pouch, and a flash of golden light revealed a golden longsword in his hand. Radiating brilliant golden splendor, he flicked his sleeve and directly hurled the sword forward.

This longsword had been acquired by Yin Tianfang after he slew Yang Po and took it from him. A powerful dragon soul was sealed within the blade, and all along, Yin Tianfang had not dared to refine it.

Even after reaching the Core Formation realm, he still dared not casually refine this longsword when facing it. He could clearly sense just how formidable the dragon soul sealed within was. To refine it rashly would result, at best, in severe injury, and at worst, in the destruction of body and soul.

At this moment, facing such a formidable attack from Lin Xiao, Yin Tianfang cast the longsword out. This was because he sensed a familiar aura from Lin Xiao—an aura he had previously felt from the golden longsword itself. That was dragon Qi.

Furthermore, under Lin Xiao's current attack, his fist radiance transformed into a demonic dragon, making the dragon Qi even denser. Believing he could not safely withstand this blow, he had thrown the golden longsword out. He was gambling—gambling that the dragon soul within the sword would sense the dragon Qi and launch an autonomous attack.

"Roar!" The black demonic dragon lunged straight toward Yin Tianfang, meeting the golden longsword he had thrown. The next instant, a piercing, resonant dragon roar erupted from within the sword. Blinding golden light burst forth from the blade, resembling a golden sun. As the radiance expanded, a true golden dragon materialized in Yin Tianfang's field of vision.

Its golden scales flashed with a dazzling luster, and an aura of noble majesty and immense power emanated from the true golden dragon. Beneath this pressure, Yin Tianfang could not help but tremble inwardly.

Looking at the gigantic true golden dragon in the air, Yin Tianfang's eyes revealed a trace of shock. He had never imagined that the dragon soul sealed within the golden longsword was powerful to this extent.

The massive body of the true golden dragon coiled in mid-air, gleaming with golden light and radiating majestic grandeur. Its enormous dragon claws extended outward to meet the oncoming black demonic dragon.

"Boom!" The golden dragon claws collided fiercely with the black demonic dragon, causing the entire void to tremble. After a brief moment of stillness, a terrifying tempest instantly swept outward. The black demonic dragon shattered inch by inch before exploding with a loud bang, dissolving into billows of demonic Qi that dissipated into the air.

Pfft!

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes as he stared at the golden true dragon ahead. Sensing the powerful aura radiating from the golden dragon, he halted his advance, took a deep breath, and slowly formed hand seals with both hands. An obscure yet powerful fluctuation emanated from his body.

An ancient, vicissitudinous, yet powerful and violent aura surged from Lin Xiao. Even from a great distance, Yin Tianfang's body could not help but tremble. Though he felt no internal fear in the face of this aura, his physical body shuddered involuntarily.

"Not good!" Realizing instantly that something was amiss, Yin Tianfang spun around and sped away into the distance. Before he had gotten far, an ancient, muffled dragon roar resounded in mid-air, carrying an intensely formidable oppressive might.

Yin Tianfang looked back, his pupils contracting sharply. He saw a pillar of pitch-black light shooting straight up into the clouds. From within the dark pillar, a colossal figure broke through and appeared in the sky.

It was unmistakably a demonic dragon!

Pitch-black scales flickered with a gloomy sheen, a formidable aura permeated the surroundings, and the void quivered. A pair of enormous, cold, and ruthless black eyes gazed down condescendingly at the true golden dragon below.
