At this moment, the person who was blocking Suan Ni's path was Lin Qiang, a supreme genius of the Void Striking Faction.
Lin Qiang was the eldest senior brother of the inner sect and the direct disciple of the Dao Emperor. He had always been the leader of the younger generation in the Sect, but because Lu Guang had surpassed him, he had been relegated to second place.
In terms of seniority, Lin Qiang was still higher than Lu Guang, which showed how outstanding he was.
"Retreat or die."
Lin Qiang's eyes were cold, and his body was full of saintly power. A golden halo floated beside him, which was his soul.
Suan Ni's expression was solemn. He naturally knew Lin Qiang. As his name suggested, he was very talented and experienced in battle. He had defeated the direct disciple of the Dao Emperor.
However, it was impossible for him to retreat with just one sentence from Lin Qiang.
At this moment, the Qilin phantom roared, and the bloodline in Suan Ni's body continued to rise.
"Ha."
Lin Qiang snorted coldly and said no more. His soul flickered with a sharp light like a dazzling blade. Driven by his saintly power, the halo suddenly flew toward Suan Ni, intending to kill him.
Clang!
A figure descended from the sky. Shi Dong swung his sword, and as the sword light fell, the halo was shaken and flew to the side.
Shi Dong felt his arms go numb, and he took several steps back. He said to Suan Ni, "Why aren't you chasing him?"
"Be careful of this person."
Suan Ni reminded. The sacred beast phantom continued to run, directly passing Lin Qiang and chasing after Lu Guang. The distance between the two kept shrinking.
Lin Qiang looked back indifferently and didn't stop him. There were many disciples of the Dao Sect, and he couldn't stop all of them. He had done his duty by suppressing Shi Dong. As for the coffin, Lu Guang would deal with it.
"It's your misfortune to pick me as your opponent."
Lin Qiang looked forward. This disciple of the Dao Sect was at the fourth level of the Profound Saint Realm. Not to mention the power of his bloodline, just his cultivation alone was two levels lower than him. He was doomed to be defeated.
"Be careful that you don't get slapped in the face when you talk big."
Shi Dong rushed forward, and the sharp sword in his hand trembled. He stabbed out a dazzling sword shadow, and his moves were unpredictable. It was difficult to distinguish the real from the fake, and it completely enveloped Lin Qiang.
"Fancy."
Lin Qiang's face was filled with disdain as he pointed his finger forward. Instantly, a whistling sound could be heard behind him as the wheel light that had been sent flying flew in an arc and suddenly flew over. The light was incomparably bright, and as it expanded, it transformed into a light shield that blocked all of the sword shadows, causing a series of sparks to explode.
"This fellow is quite difficult to deal with. I have to use my ultimate move."
Shi Dong knew in his heart that Lin Qiang was not ordinary and possessed a Soul Bloodline. He hurriedly took a peek and saw that the Bi 'an had already caught up to Lu Guang. Shi Lang was also following behind, so he should be able to block Lu Guang.
Bo Minghua was also exchanging blows with another person. The other party was an outstanding disciple from Taisui Mountain. His cultivation level was very high and was not any weaker than Lin Qiang's. He was probably the person with the highest cultivation level in Taisui Mountain after Dui Tianchang.
However, Bo Minghua was not a weakling. His pair of Yin and Yang Dual Pole Palms were fierce and overbearing. He also had two disciples of the Martial Pavilion assisting him. It would not be so easy to lose.
"You dare to get distracted while fighting me? You're courting death."
Lin Qiang shouted in dissatisfaction. His finger pointed downwards and the soul wheel suddenly broke through the sword shadow, spitting out a surging holy light. With a whoosh, it slashed down towards Shi Dong's head.
"Water Wind Step."
Shi Dong did not have time to accumulate power. His strange body movement technique flashed and his feet instantly exploded with an extreme speed. Like a blurry shadow, he dodged in front of Lin Qiang. The soul wheel slashed into the ground with a rumble, shaking the earth and rocks. Then, it quickly flew back to Lin Qiang's side.
Lin Qiang frowned slightly. What a fast speed. Shi Dong's body movement technique was extraordinary. At this moment, he became vigilant because he discovered that in the next second after Shi Dong dodged the attack, several Sword Qi came from behind him. It was done in one breath and the Sword Qi was cold and sharp. This person's martial arts were not ordinary. Ordinary disciples would not be able to achieve such combat skills.
Turning around, Lin Qiang opened his palms wide and holy power gushed out from his body. The soul wheel spun wildly and blasted directly at the Sword Qi. His cultivation level was high, so it was easy for him to suppress Shi Dong's attack. The soul wheel flew all the way, crushing the Sword Qi and blasting at the opponent's feet.
Unfortunately, it did not hit the target.
"Is your zodiac sign a loach?" Lin Qiang was a little angry.
"This person's vitality is stronger than mine."
Shi Dong also discovered the subtlety. In a battle of vitality, he did not have the advantage. If he wanted to defeat Lin Qiang, there was only one way, and that was to smash him to death with his fist.
Seemingly aware of Shi Dong's intention, Lin Qiang subconsciously took a few steps back, widening the distance between the two. Then, he pointed his finger again and the soul wheel shone brightly. It was like a maggot that followed Shi Dong closely.
Shi Dong heard a terrifying "Pu Pu" sound coming from behind him, but he didn't have the time to care about it. Using the Water Wind Steps, he dodged the Wheel Light Slashes again and again, always maintaining a certain distance.
However, in this process, he was getting closer and closer to Lin Qiang. Finally, he had a chance to get close to him.
"Bang!"
Shi Dong roared and let go of his sword. He threw it behind him and took a heavy step forward. The moment he threw his sword, his right palm immediately clenched into a fist. His blood roared and his physical strength exploded. Saint Power poured into his right arm and his fist burst out with a raging fist aura.
"Damn it."
Lin Qiang could not dodge. Shi Dong's body movement technique was too fast. The fist was right in front of him. He had no choice but to meet the fist with his own. He also poured out his holy power and punched out.
Bang!
The two fists collided. The sound of flesh colliding was heavy and intense. Both of them sank down at the same time. The ground sank half a foot deep and two ripple-like cracks spread out.
However, Shi Dong suddenly felt that Lin Qiang's fist was incomparably hard. The power behind the punch was not weak. Perhaps it was not as strong as Shi Dong's, but at least it was enough to block him.
"Hehe, you think I can't see through your intentions? Don't think I'm just an arcane master who only cultivates Yuan Qi. Do you know the Air Striking Divine Fist of the Air Striking Sect?"
Lin Qiang's Yuan Qi quickly flowed to his arm. A bright orange halo burst out under his fist. With a buzzing sound, Shi Dong only felt his ears go deaf and his head become dizzy. At this time, an explosive force rushed into his body through his arm. It was incomparably fierce.
Chi La!
The clothes on Shi Dong's back exploded, forming the shape of a fist. A wave of fist aura penetrated his body.
Lin Qiang laughed. Comparing techniques?
This Taoist disciple was too inexperienced.
"So you deliberately confused me. Hehe, Master was right. The end of arrogant people is often death by their arrogance." Shi Dong raised his head, his eyes filled with cunning.
"What?" Lin Qiang was shocked to find that Shi Dong, who was hit by his Air Striking Divine Fist, actually withstood it.
How was this possible?
Not to mention that Shi Dong's cultivation level was lower than his by two levels. Even if they were on the same level, Lin Qiang had enough confidence to heavily injure his opponent with one punch. Even if he could not kill his opponent, he would not be in such a state like Shi Dong.
It was as if Shi Dong's body directly neutralized the power of his punch.
What kind of physical strength was this?
A monster?
The Unparalleled Tang Sect
fo
Lin Qiang naturally did not know that Shi Dong, who was under Qin Hao, was being tempered by Dendi's medicinal baths every day. The medicinal power of Qin Hao's medicine was incomparably tyrannical. It madly stimulated Shi Dong's flesh and blood. It was simply a torture. Because he could not bear it at first, he fainted several times.
But in the past eight years, Shi Dong had endured until today. He had been ravaged for eight years in exchange for a Diamond Body that could be said to be copper skin and iron bones.
Shi Dong's physical body was naturally not comparable to Qin Hao's Demigod Body, nor was it comparable to Tsiogua's innate Ox Demon Body. But among his peers, as long as he did not meet an absolute defensive martial artist, basically no one could withstand his punch.
Obviously, this Lin Qiang was not a defensive martial artist, and neither was his origin soul.
Moreover, even if he was, he still could not block it.
Buzz!
A dazzling golden light pierced through the center of his fist. The raging light between his fingers was so dazzling that people could not open their eyes. The supreme emperor technique of the Divine Palace's Mizar Peak, the Nine Palace War Emperor Art, was activated. Shi Dong opened the power of one palace.
At this moment, a primitive power seemed to have awakened in his body and burst out from his fist. Although he was still in the fourth level of the Profound Sage Realm, the destructive power of this fist was almost comparable to Lin Qiang, who was two levels higher than him.
How terrifying was this?
After all, Lin Qiang was born with an origin soul and was the eldest direct disciple of the Dao Emperor. He had thrived under superior conditions all his life.
"No … Round Wheel Slash!"
A terrible crisis of death descended, and Lin Qiang let out a hysterical howl. Almost at the same time that Shi Dong was fighting Dili, he controlled his origin soul with his mind to attack.
What made him despair was that his origin soul did not return to his side for a long time. If he could see Yin Qingqing using all her strength and holding a pair of medicinal pestles to resist the light of the wheel, he would definitely curse.
The battle between him and Shi Dong was not a one-on-one battle at all. Instead, it had become a one-on-two battle.
Puchi!
The fist light mixed with the golden emperor technique penetrated and melted under Shi Dong's fist light. Lin Qiang's fist turned into powder, and the bones in his arm disintegrated little by little until his chest was penetrated. The terrible power carried his body and threw him into the distance.
The disciple of the Dao Emperor who had struck the air had died!
"He's finally dead."
Yin Qingqing gasped for breath. Her body seemed to be exhausted as she sat on the ground. The pair of medicinal pestles were thrown to the side. The moment Lin Qiang was killed, the light of the wheel had also collapsed. She almost could not hold on. An origin soul martial artist was too terrifying, and he was the disciple of the Dao Emperor who had struck the air.
"Senior Sister, are you injured?"
Shi Dong turned around and strode over. Yin Qingqing's clothes were torn by the light of the wheel, and some parts of her body were exposed.
"Bastard, don't look." Yin Qingqing blocked with her hands, and her eyes were filled with grievance.
Seeing this, Shi Dong took off his robe and covered Yin Qingqing's body. He looked in the direction of the coffin and saw that Bi 'an, Shi Lang, Lu Guang, and Dui Tianzhang were already fighting.
…
Puchi!
Shi Lang spat out a mouthful of blood. He could not hold on any longer. After losing three teeth, Dui Tianzhang sent him flying with a slap. The origin soul sword seal in his hand that he was so proud of was also shattered.
There were many Daoist disciples who entered the emperor cave, and they did not expend any energy along the way. Even if the Taisui Mountain and the Void Striking Sect joined forces, they did not have the advantage in numbers.
Lu Guang and Dui Tianzhang knew that if they did not suppress the Daoist sect, they would not have the chance to open the coffin.
Just as Bi 'an was about to catch up, Lu Guang and Dui Tianzhang turned around at the same time. One of them intercepted Bi' an while Dui Tianzhang clashed with Shi Lang. These two were the strongest disciples of the Daoist sect. Killing them would be enough to establish their prestige.
At this moment, Shi Lang, the number one of the Sword Valley, had been defeated by the son of the Taisui Emperor. The sad thing was that his opponent had only used three moves. In order to block these three moves, Shi Lang had almost risked his life.
Even so, he was still no match for his opponent.
Looking at Dui Tianzhang's foot coming down and getting closer and closer to Shi Lang's face, Shi Lang's heart was filled with sorrow. He was the Shi Clan's genius and could summon the wind and rain in the Sword Valley. Was he going to be trampled to death in the end?
Dui Tianzhang was not leaving him with any dignity even in death.
Bang!
There was an extremely loud sound. Shi Lang was about to close his eyes and live with regret for the rest of his life. At this moment, the foot that was close to his face suddenly disappeared. Dui Tianzhang seemed to have been hit hard. His entire body slid backward frantically, and his footsteps were slightly awkward.
"My father said before that the ancestors of the Shi clan have never done something so stupid as to give up on a battle and willingly lie under the feet of others. You are the first. I hope there won't be a next time." A familiar voice entered his ears. Shi Lang raised his head and looked. With a startled expression, he said, "Shi Dong."
Shi Dong had actually sent Dui Tianzhang flying.
In order to block the son of the Taisui Emperor, Shi Lang had used all his strength. In the end, his opponent did not even take half a step back. Instead, he bravely moved forward with an extremely arrogant attitude.
But Shi Dong had sent him flying so far away.
At this moment, Shi Dong was not feeling well either. His fist was straight forward, and there was a golden light dissipating in his palm. He was sweating and panting heavily. With his foundation and cultivation, he could only throw two punches to fight Dili.
This was the effect of Qin Hao's medicinal bath tempering his body. If it were not for ordinary people, they would not have been able to withstand the raging power of the supreme Imperial technique of the Divine Palace.
However, this punch only caused Dui Tianzhang to retreat. It did not even leave behind a trace of injury.
The son of the Taisui Emperor was indeed powerful. He was simply much more outstanding than Lin Qiang.
"You killed the eldest disciple of the Striking Sky Emperor."
Dui Tianzhang looked into the distance and saw Lin Qiang's body lying on the ground in the midst of the chaotic battle. Lin Qiang's chest seemed to have been penetrated by the power of a fist. Recalling the power that Shi Dong had just unleashed, Dui Tianzhang no longer had any doubts.
That punch was indeed enough to kill Lin Qiang.
