Lu Bi's expression suddenly changed, "Who's there?"
A finger descended in front of him. Lu Bi's pupils shrank, but he had no time to think. His sword struck out like a mountain, and in an instant, layers of barriers appeared around him. It was as if a wall had appeared between heaven and earth, separating him from his surroundings. The void rumbled as it became heavy, and no one could break through his ultimate defense.
Crack! Lu Bi was stunned as he watched his wall crack open. The crack then spread to the tip of the sword, and it shattered along the tip of the sword. When he looked again, there was nothing left. Where was the person?
Where was that finger?
However, the sword shattered and fell to the ground with a soft thud. The surrounding barriers were torn apart by the force, and they slowly collapsed as the wind blew past.
Lu Bi stood there in a daze. One finger, just one finger.
At that moment, he felt a sharp pain in his knee. He couldn't take it anymore and knelt down on one knee. He touched his knee and found that it was an internal injury. It wasn't serious, but it wouldn't heal in a few days.
Who was it?
Outside the Four Lin Sword Gates, Lu Yin took a step forward and headed towards the Southern Lin Sword Gate.
Lu Bi's defensive sword intent was decent, but it was useless against Lu Yin's finger. Even the Four Lin Sword Gates might not be able to withstand it, let alone Lu Bi.
This finger could become a nightmare for anyone below the Eternal Realm.
After some time, Lu Yin arrived at the Southern Lin Sword Gate, and what he saw surprised him.
He went to the Eastern, Northern, and Western Sword Gates, and saw sword intent soaring into the sky. This Southern Lin Sword Gate, however, was completely different. There was a bamboo forest and flowing water, and scholars chatted with each other while admiring the famous paintings hanging in the forest. This place didn't seem like the Southern Lin Sword Gate, but more like an academy — no, an art academy.
He saw quite a few people painting.
The outside world's impression of Lu Jing of the Southern Lin Sword Gate was that he used famous paintings to prove his heart. Lu Yin didn't understand what that meant at first, but now he understood that it was literal. He used these famous paintings as the source of his sword intent. Every painting contained the painstaking efforts of the painter, and they had been passed down for a long time. Countless people had seen them, and the emotions of those who saw the paintings seemed to have settled down over time and flowed into the paintings. Every painting had a different state of mind, and every painting depicted different landscapes, birds, and beasts.
Many of the paintings even depicted cultivators battling each other.
These paintings helped Lu Jing achieve his goal. He became the first person in the history of the Four Lin Swords Gate to comprehend the sword through paintings.
The biggest difference between the Nan Lin Sword Sect and the other three sects was that there were no restrictions on entry. Anyone could enter, even ordinary people.
Lu Yin entered the bamboo forest and passed by many famous ancient paintings. Around him, scholars and literati chatted happily, but there was only one person in his eyes. That person seemed to have been waiting for him.
At the end of the bamboo forest, under the flowing water, a pair of eyes had been watching Lu Yin the moment he arrived outside the Nanlin Sword Gate.
"Were you waiting for me?" he asked, looking down at the bottom of the lake. "Were you waiting for me?"
"Both Lu Bi and Lu Feichen were injured by you. Who are you?"
Lu Yin was surprised. "How did this get out?"
"The labyrinth where the Butchering Wall is located is connected to the entire West Lin Sword Gate. When the labyrinth is destroyed, the outside world will naturally know."
Lu Yin understood; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
"Lu Bi is a very cautious person, even in the Western Lin Sword Sect, he is very cautious. This is the characteristic of every generation of the Western Lin Sword Sect. Besides, Lu Bi doesn't care about his reputation, he directly contacted Lu Feichen. Coincidentally, Lu Feichen was also injured.
"You are Lu Jing?" Lu Yin asked.
"That's right."
"Jian.
Yes, I know. The Four Lin Swords Gate has always been a place I wanted to challenge. Unfortunately, you have disappointed me. "
"Will you go to the Donglin Sword Gate?"
"You suspect that I was sent by the Donglin Sword Gate?"
"That's possible."
"I have been to the Donglin Sword Gate, but I didn't make a move. Lu Sizhan is too weak."
"I can't refute that, but I believe in my guess. Did you come because of Lu Siyu's invitation? Are you here because of the Seven Fairies?
Or because of the Azure Lotus Emperor? "
"Since you knew that I was coming and didn't set up an ambush, I will give you my respect and show you the truth."
Lu Yin raised his hand and pointed. In an instant, the void revolved and closed as a sharp light flashed. At the bottom of the lake, Lu Jing attacked at the same time. "Eternal Painting."
The lake rippled and a drop of water fell, making a soft sound.
It rained above the bamboo forest, and the scholars hurriedly put away their paintings.
At the bottom of the lake, Lu Jing released the hilt of his sword. There was a hole in the blade from the attack just now. He had been defeated, and very badly, by the sword's will.
The Eternal Painting was used to prove one's heart. Looking at the world and the sea, one could comprehend the killing sword.
He had only used one move, and it was known as the strongest killing sword in the Four Lin Swords Gate. It couldn't kill Lu Feichen, so he wasn't Lu Feichen's opponent. However, it could severely injure Lu Feichen.
Just now, he had been defeated by the same killing sword.
Lu Yin felt a sharp pain in his knee. As expected, this person specialized in knee injuries.
Fortunately, the injury wasn't serious.
At this moment, he had seen the truth.
This person was definitely not a helper hired by Lu Sizhan or Lu Siyu. Just like what he said, he wanted to challenge the swords of the Si Lin Domain. Because of this, a swordsman would definitely be obsessed with swordsmanship. He was not someone that Lu Siyu could hire, and it was even more impossible for the Azure Lotus Protector to help the Dong Lin Sword Gate cheat.
Lu Feichen didn't know whether to rejoice or be discouraged. Lu Feichen, Lu Bi, and himself had all been injured by this person. Only Lu Sizhan wasn't worthy of this person's attack, so naturally, Lu Sizhan wasn't injured at all.
But who was this person?
The Four Lin Swords Gate wasn't weak, and there were people from all over the Nine Firmaments Universe, but he had never heard of such a sword expert.
Lu Yin disappeared outside the Nan Lin Swords Gate.
He hadn't expected an accident, but it didn't matter. Defeating Lu Jing with one move was enough to erase their suspicions about the Donglin Swords Gate. He only hoped that Lu Sizhan would be able to fight well in the Four Lin Swords Gate in a few days. Otherwise, he would have to think of another way.
It would be best if nothing unexpected happened.
Sometimes, the more one didn't want accidents to happen, the more accidents would happen.
The news that the Four Lin Swords Gate had been attacked by a mysterious person shocked the entire Four Lin Swords Gate, and it even spread outside of the Four Lin Swords Gate, shocking many people in the Nine Firmaments Universe.
Defeating the leaders of the Four Lin Swords Gate with a single move wasn't something an ordinary person could do. This person's swordsmanship had to be above the Nine Firmaments.
Who was this person?
The result of this news was that the Four Lin Swords Gate's competition was postponed. At the same time, the Four Lin Swords Gate invited Wanxiang Valley's Elder Le to search for traces of the attacker. This wasn't revenge, but rather to find out who this person was.
This was the Four Lin Swords Gate's dignity.
In the Donglin Swords Gate, when Lu Sizhan and Lu Siyu heard that the leaders of the other three sects had been injured, they were stunned. The injuries were laughable — knees. That's right, legs were crippled.
They immediately thought of Lu Yin.
How was this possible?
His leg was crippled, his leg was really crippled. How did this guy do it?
Was he really that powerful?
Lu Siyu
Si Zhan and Lu Siyu exchanged glances, and they both saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.
"Lass, tell me, what is this Lu Yin's background?"
Lu Siyu's face was pale. She knew that things had gotten out of hand. If she had known, she wouldn't have agreed to Lu Yin's request. Who knew if he could really cripple the other three leaders? This was too fast. "I don't know. He just accidentally wandered into the Sea of Karma. Master said that he recognized him as a 'fate' and told us to set the conditions."
"I know all of this."
Lu Sizhan's expression was solemn. "Think about Qinglian Yu's attitude towards him. Was it praise, indifference, or something else?"
Lu Siyu blinked. Praise?
It was more than praise. He treated them like his own son. He actually wanted to marry them off to that little thief. What a joke! They were all stunned at the time.
They didn't have the time to think so much. They only thought about how to reject him.
"Say something, lass."
"I-I forgot."
"Lass, how could you forget? Do you know how powerful that Lu Yin is? If I'm not wrong, he definitely has the power of a complete Bitter Adversity cultivator."
Lu Siyu gasped and covered her mouth. Her face was full of disbelief.
Lu Sizhan smiled bitterly, "Don't doubt me. I don't know how strong the others are, but Lu Feichen's sword will is extremely terrifying. Furthermore, the Meteor Head wasn't his strongest sword will, he still had a hidden card up his sleeve. Even so, he was still injured by this person, and it was only a single move.
"To be honest, even a complete Bitter Adversity cultivator might not be able to do that. I'm more inclined to believe that he has the power of a Lesser God."
Lu Siyu's thoughts were in a mess. She kept recalling what had happened at the Lotus Pond of Karma Sea. Based on her master's attitude, it didn't seem impossible. Otherwise, with her master's vision, how could he recognize a little thief?
He even wanted to marry her sisters off to him because of the word 'fate'. Was Karma Sea something that could be entered by accident?
That was the territory of Qinglian Yu.
She didn't think much about it before, but now that she thought about it, she was full of questions.
"Father, don't ask anymore. I really don't know." Lu Siyu was confused.
Lu Sizhan sighed and patted her shoulder. "Alright, little girl. I won't ask anymore. If you see Lu Yin again, you must be polite to him. Don't provoke a strong enemy. He's powerful, but he acts without restraint. People like that are the most terrifying."
Lu Siyu bit her lip and nodded.
She was still in a daze even after Lu Sizhan left.
The power of a Lesser God?
This Lu Yin is from the three universes. What is he doing in Ninefall Universe?
Why does her master think so highly of him? Even the Little Azure Prince wasn't favored by her master.
Right, quickly tell the sisters that this little thief has such strength. They need to be careful.
"I'm not your enemy."
A voice suddenly sounded, startling Lu Siyu. She looked at the corner of the courtyard and saw that Lu Yin had been standing there for a long time.
Lu Yin looked up at Lu Siyu. "I don't dislike your Lin Sword Gate, so normally speaking, we're not enemies."
Lu Siyu was shocked and glared at Lu Yin. "Of course I know that. Next time, if you make any noise before you speak, I'll be traumatized."
"Also, did you really cripple his leg?"
"Didn't you already know?"
"You're too cruel."
"It's just a lame leg. He'll be fine after some rest. It's a pity that the Sword Gate has been postponed. You Sword Gate people don't keep your promises."
Lu Siyu was furious. "You crippled his leg and you still have the cheek to talk about others?"
