'How did he get in here?!' Lin Dong thought to himself with shock. For someone at the peak Foundation Establishment realm to be unable to notice a fifteen year old Body Tempering cultivator was a shame to him.
His sons on the other hand were horrified to see Xuanyuan Zhen. The last time they encountered him, he was at Body Tempering realm 5th stage, and he defeated them easily. The humiliation would never be forgotten. Now he's at the peak of Body Tempering realm in a short time.
'How strong is he this time?!!' was the thought within their minds.
"I considered letting you bastards live longer for a while," said Xuanyuan Zhen, walking towards them. His steady steps resounded like a hammer in their hearts.Then he let out a sigh," But it seems like you've really gotten tired of living."
His purple–golden blood Qi erupted from him enhanced by Primordial Breath and Myriad Arms Intent, exuding an overwhelming aura, like a young emperor. This sight filled Lin Yun and Lin Feng with terror, as if standing before an apex predator. Lin Dong unleashed his True Qi from his dantian, dispelling the pressure. Even then, he still felt a bit threatened by the teenager before him.
"And you should have run away when you had the chance," he said coldly."But since you've come, don't bother leaving." Then he rushed towards Xuanyuan Zhen while conjuring a palm combat techniques.
'Mountain Shattering Palm's
He unleashed his complete strength, eager to kill the prey before it could escape. Zhen knew no combat techniques. He could only throw a fist towards the incoming palm attack.
BOOMMM!!!
Both attacks collided, sending both parties a few steps backwards. Xuanyuan Zhen nodded silently in approval. At full strength, he can rival a peak Foundation realm at the peak of Body Tempering realm. Such combat power is off the charts, even for top geniuses. Lin Dong on the other hand was full of shock. The scene of the Xuanyuan Zhen being obliterated by a single strike did not occur. Instead he's evenly matched with a Body Tempering teenager.
'He must be killed to avoid future troubles,' he thought. Both of them charged again exchanging blows. Lin Feng and Lin Yun had already fled to find a hiding place. Such battle is beyond their capabilities. The entire house of the village Chief was destroyed, with the servants running out in terror. Other members came out to watch the show.
Some looked with schadenfreude, due to the hatred the had for Lin Dong.
' It seemed like he hit an iron plate this time.' they thought. Others on the other hand, were more concerned about the person battling Lin Dong. No one had ever paid attention to such a person like that in Red Mist Village.
Both parties had exchanged dozens of moves before stopping. Lin Dong coughed a mouthful of blood, he had sustained internal injuries on this series of clashes. Xuanyuan Zhen on the other hand, was still unharmed and full of vitality. His Desolate Saint Body and Firmament Overlord Body were no joke. He charged towards Lin Dong, throwing another fist.
'DODGE!!!' was the only thought in Lin Dong's mind as he dashed towards the right avoiding the attack directly, but the impact still blasted him, sending him crashing into the ground.
He stood, heavily injured and disheveled, watching Xuanyuan Zhen walking towards him, like a God of Death. His entire body trembled with fear and despair.
"My brother is a deacon in the Origin Sword Sect!!," he screamed immediately. "If you kill me he'll hunt you down."
Xuanyuan Zhen stopped walking as he heard that. Lin Dong assumed he was frightened upon hearing his statement, and began to think of ways to avenge himself when his brother arrived.
'First by breaking every bone in his body, peeling off his flesh, draining every drop of blood.' His train of thought was interrupted upon Xuanyuan Zhen's reply.
"So even the older generation are cowards," he began,"forget the fact that I don't know what trash sect that is, what makes you think I'm letting you go?"
Lin Dong saw a purple–golden blur in a split second, then felt a strong grip on his neck. His fear intensified upon that. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind. Fear, regret, resentment. Just as Xuanyuan Zhen was about to end the filth before him.
"IF YOU DARE HARM MY BROTHER, I WILL KILL YOU!!!."
Lin Dong's mood was excited upon hearing the voice. It was his brother Lin Tian!
The figure arrived unleashing a vast unfathomable aura, beyond that of the Foundation realm. Every bystander watching felt like a mountain was descending upon their heads, even Xuanyuan Zhen felt threatened.
A Core Formation Realm Cultivator!
The new comer arrived floating in the air, a feature known for Core Formation cultivators to achieve. Besides him were two other people. One at peak Foundation realm, but with a much stronger Qi fluctuations than Lin Dong, and the other a Core Formation cultivator stronger than Lin Tian himself.
"Let my brother go," he said condescendingly,"then cripple yourself. That's the price you pay for offending my people."
Lin Feng and Lin Yun had already left their hiding place and rushed towards their uncle. They looked at Xuanyuan Zhen with mocking gazes. The remaining villagers felt pity for the teenager. Such a genius was about to be ended like this. The two cultivators accompanying Lin Tian were indifferent to the situation, like everything was under control.
Xuanyuan Zhen looked at the situation around him. He looked at Lin Dong's mocking smile,and smiled back, to the other party's astonishment.
"Do you think they're going to save you?"
