The man stood arrogantly in the sky with one hand behind his back, while helooked down upon everyone on the mountaintop. On his face, hung a smile thatseemed to be a smile yet was not.

The entire mountaintop was rather quiet. Everyone’s expressions were quitegrim. Some tightly clenched their fist, wanting to cry out furiously. However,a basin of cold water seemed to have been poured on their heads when they sawthe sorry state of Qin Tian as he lay on the ground, Even Qin Tian, who hadstepped into the six Yuan Nirvana stage, had been so miserably defeated. Itwould likely be completely pointless even if they stepped forward.

Lan Ying and the other Nirvana Golden Ranking experts wore gloomy andfluctuating expressions. They had clearly been shaken by that man’s previousattack.

“How is he this powerful?” Lin Dong could not help but frown while he staredat this scene before softly asking.

“It is because of that ‘Heaven Sealing Array’.” Little Marten replied faintly.

“It should be a Pure Yuan treasure and this person can clearly utilize some ofthe array’s power. Although this tiny bit of power is practically a fraction ofthe array’s power, it is not surprising for him to defeat Qin Tian in a singlestrike if we factor in his actual strength.”

“Pure Yuan treasure?” Lin Dong’s eyebrows slightly knitted together.

“A treasure that is even stronger than a Heavenly Soul Treasure. That kind ofthing is quite rare even within the super sects…” Little Marten explained.

“A Pure Yuan Treasure is extremely powerful. Moreover, the strength that itpossessed far exceeds your imagination. This “Heavenly Sealing Array” should bea type of high grade Pure Yuan Array. Otherwise, it would be unable to lockthis entire space.”

“Powerful.” Lin Dong quietly clicked his tongue. Using one treasure to seal anentire space. Just what kind of ability was that? Compared with the so calledPure Yuan Treasure, the Black Dragon Sky Roaring Seal in his hand really felt alittle weak and insignificant.

“In that case is the mysterious Stone Talisman also considered a Pure YuanTreasure?” Lin Dong mused for a moment before he suddenly asked curiously.

“Tch, this thing is something that I am unable to fully grasp even after somany years. How could a Pure Yuan Treasure compared with its level of secrecy?”Little Marten curled his mouth and appeared to feel quite disdained.

“So even you did not completely figure out the properties of the mysteriousstone talisman…” Lin Dong rolled his eyes at Little Marten and said.

Little Marten was immediately stunned upon hearing this. It seemed that hispride took a hit. He wanted to refute it but discovered that he seemed to bereally uncertain about just what use this mysterious stone talisman did. Hence,he could only rub his nose bitterly.

“This situation does not appear to be too good…” Little Marten changed thetopic as he looked at the sky and said.

Lin Dong sighed softly and nodded. Clearly, he did not expect that thisHundred Empire War would actually end up turning into this state. His father,grandfather and the others were awaiting for him to deliver the good news back.If they end up hearing that he was being captured by the Western Xuan Region,it was likely that they would not be able to take it…

“Let’s observe the situation…”

That man called Cao Yu in the sky looked at this silence on the mountaintopand smiled faintly. With a wave of his hand, the black light balls in the handsof the many figures behind him emitted even more rays of light. These lightrays penetrated through the space and vaguely appeared to have formed anenormous black light formation in the sky above.

“We cannot allow them to complete the formation!”

Watching the formation that was gradually being formed in the sky, Lan Ying,Qing Feng and the others also had increasingly ugly faces. They were aware thatonce the formation was completed, this realm would be transferred to theWestern Xuan Region. Their situation would really become extremely miserablethen.

After all, the relationship between the Western Xuan Region and the EasternXuan Region was quite hostile.

“Let’s fight. I do not wish to head to that terrible Western Xuan Region.”

A man with a black heavy sword on his back spoke with a gloomy expression. Hewas someone from the Sword Empire and possessed quite a great strength.

“With the strength of Cao Yu… who can fight with him?” Lan Ying clenched herhand tightly. If they failed to stop Cao Yu, it was likely that they would beunable to stop the other party from establishing the formation. However, evenif the experts from the Nirvana Golden Ranking swarmed towards Cao Yu, it waslikely that the rest would have difficulty interrupting the other party.

The genius experts from the other ten super empires had sunken expressionsupon hearing Lan Ying’s words. Even Qin Tian, who had stepped into the six YuanNirvana Stage, was defeated by Qin Tian with one strike. Who amongst them daredto fight with this Cao Ying in a one on one battle?

“I will do it. The rest of you should lead the others and disrupt theformation!” The man carrying a heavy sword clenched his teeth violently andstepped out. He beckoned with his hand and the heavy sword on his back flew outimmediately. A sharp sword glow erupted.

“Chen Nan, you!” Lan Ying and the others were startled upon seeing this scene.Before their words sounded, however, that man had already rushed outexplosively. The sword and his body became one as they transformed into abright glow that tore through the distant sky and pierced towards Cao Yu in alightning like manner.

“Stubborn fool.”

Cao Yu’s expression was indifferent as he watched the figure that had rushedover after transforming into a sharp sword. A cold snort sounded and a largehand was immediately extended.

Bang!

After his hand was extended, the space in front had once again erupted into amonstrous black light. Immediately, it transformed into a black light largehand that violently slammed onto the sword glow.

Bang!

The sharp sword grow basically collapsed almost instantly under that blacklight large hand. That figure within it also spat out a mouthful of fresh bloodand shot backwards miserably.

This expert from the Sword Empire had clearly been defeated by this Cao Yuwith just one strike.

“Chen Nan!”

Lan Ying and the others hurriedly rushed to Chen Nan’s side. He looked at thatmiserable manner of the latter and a fury surged within his eyes. He wasclearly extremely agitated.

“Cough, this fellow is really strong.” Chen Nan spat out a mouthful of freshblood as he spoke with an unwilling hoarse voice.

“Damnit, we’ll all fight!” An expert cried out furiously. Everyone around hadfaces that were filled with fury. They were unable to swallow the anger ofhaving been stepped on the head by these fellows from the Western Xuan Region.

“Compared to being captured to the Western Xuan Region, we might as well fightto the death with them here.” Another expert also clenched his teeth and said.

“That’s right, we’ll battle it out with them!”

“……”

Lan Ying also bit her red lips with the back of her teeth when she heard thevarious furious cries that sounded from all around. Her pretty face becameslightly icy cold as he stood up. “Qing Feng, Ma Lin, Mu Se, we’ll attacktogether and hold back Cao Yu. The others should all attack and destroy theformation!”

“Understood!”

That Nirvana Golden Ranking expert beside Lan Ying, whose name was called,also nodded heavily. Killing intent surged within his eyes.

“Gi!”

Lan Ying also did things in a decisive fashion. Moreover, she was aware thatthey could not afford to delay any longer. Immediately, her body moved and sherushed out. However, a hand was suddenly extended from behind her just as shewas about to step forward. After which, it was pressed onto her soft shoulder.

“All of you are no match for him. Don’t go…”

Lan Ling turned her head and looked at Lin Dong with a helpless face. The backof her teeth bit her red lips and she coldly laughed, “I thought you you willcontinue to hide behind me.”

From the looks of this, she was clearly brooding over the fact that Lin Dongonly chose to step up at this moment.

“I am not a heavyweight character unlike you super empire members. Why are youplacing so much hope on me?”

Lin Dong smiled faintly but was unconcerned. He merely raised his head andstared at Cao Yu. After a short silence, he sighed, “Forget it. Leave him tome.”

“You?” Cao Ying and the others were startled upon hearing this. Although theirhearts were gripped when watching Lin Dong and Lin Langtian exchange blows, CaoYu was someone who could even defeat Qin Tian with just one strike.

“Why? You don’t allow me to hide for a little. Are you also not allowing me tofight now that I want to?” Lin Dong stared intently at Lan Ying andinvoluntarily spoke in a helpless manner.

Lan Ying’s pretty face immediately became red upon hearing this. She lost thesharp wit that she had from before. Instead, she spoke hesitantly, “That fellowis very strong…”

“There’s no choice. I, too, do not wish to head to that whatever Western XuanRegion…” He shrugged his shoulders in a somewhat free and easy manner andlaughed, “Moreover, regardless of how strong he is, we must at least give it atry, right?”

Lin Dong ceased saying anything upon saying these words. He slowly steppedforward. However, he did not even take two steps forward when he saw LittleMarten appearing in front of him in a ghost like manner.

“Leave it to me.” Little Marten stared at Lin Dong and said. He clearlyunderstood Lin Dong. Although the latter was quite powerful, it would be alittle difficult for him to defeat Cao Yu.

“There is the presence of Yuan Gate here. Those fellows do not appear to bemagnanimous. You cannot reveal your identity.” Lin Dong shook his head slightlyand used a soft voice that only Little Marten could hear.

“You are no match for him.” Little Marten frowned and replied.

A strange smile surfaced on Lin Dong’s face when he heard this. He gentlypatted Little Marten’s shoulder and softly said, “That may not be certain…”

“Don’t you want to know why I have been suppressing my Mental Power? Next, Iwill show you why…”

Little Marten’s eyes slowly narrowed as Lin Dong rushed by him. Could thisfellow really do it?
