Chapter 1374: Lotus of Life and Death!
“Is this what being injured feels like?” Feng Wuya flexed his fractured right hand, and a smile appeared on his face as he wiped the blood from the corners of his lips.
“Hahaha… How long has it been since I’ve felt this? If it weren’t for you, I would have forgotten what pain feels like!” His expression became even crueler and more bloodthirsty.
Feng Wuya stepped forward at a terrifying speed and threw himself at An Lin. At the same time, his arms became extremely inky black as the true intent of the dao of lotus erupted forth.
Bam!
Feng Wuya and An Lin’s fists collided again.
An Lin could clearly sense that Feng Wuya’s power had increased significantly from before.
And then, Feng Wuya was blasted flying by An Lin again…
His body crashed into the enchantment barrier, triggering another violent tremor.
Feng Wuya laughed heartily and stepped forward again to clash fists with An Lin over and over again.
An Lin in his Fire God Mode certainly wasn’t going to back down from a melee brawl like this.
Violent collisions erupted over and over again as terrifying shockwaves crashed relentlessly into the enchantment barrier around them.
Immortal King Feng Wuya was blasted flying again and crashed into the enchantment barrier.
“Immortal King, is that all you’ve got?” An Lin made his way over toward Feng Wuya with Divine Flames surrounding his body, as if he were a Fire God incinerating heaven and earth. “If things continue like this, you’re going to be pummeled to death…”
Feng Wuya suddenly seemed to have heard the most humiliating insult, and he abruptly roared, “You’re the impotent one! I’m going to f*cking kill you!”
An Lin: “???”
Did he say anything about impotence?
Feng Wuya made a peculiar hand seal, and a white lotus appeared before slowly revolving around his body. An Lin could sense an extremely holy aura from that white lotus.
Feng Wuya threw up a mouthful of blood essence at the white lotus. “Lotus of Life and Death, First Level, Life In An Instant!”
The white lotus flower quickly became dark and depraved after being stained with blood, and it soon transformed into a black and red lotus flower. Powerful and deathly energy proliferated forth, as if it were going to deprive all living beings of their vitality.
“Die!” Feng Wuya roared with a twisted expression.
The red and black lotus flower suddenly disappeared somehow.
A strange sensation welled up in An Lin’s heart, as if the lotus flower hadn’t actually disappeared. It seemed to exist elsewhere now, in his heart to be exact…
An unparalleled sense of danger suddenly gripped his entire body.
He slowly lowered his head to discover that his chest was bulging slightly over where his heart was.
His indestructible divine body began to crack open.
His heart suddenly felt extremely comfortable. He suddenly really wanted to just die like this, like a flower blossoming before wilting away. It was all part of a natural cycle of life…
An Lin’s eyes became slightly glazed over.
A sinister smile appeared on Feng Wuya’s face. “Die… Just let go…”
Bam!
Blood exploded like a crimson mist.
The place where An Lin’s heart was in was now replaced by a massive hole.
A bloodthirsty black lotus had taken the place of his heart and was glowing with an extremely sinister light!
All of the spectators were given a massive fright upon seeing this.
“Ah! How could this be…”
“White-Robed Exalted Immortal!”
One cultivator after another yelled his name.
A woman in a red dress flew toward the Immortal Slaying Platform with no regard for her life. Tears were rolling down her face as she screamed An Lin’s name.
“Ah! That hurts!!!” Only now did An Lin experience a sense of excruciating pain shooting through his entire body. He clasped a hand over his chest, yet the boundless pain was still assaulting his senses, pulling him toward unconsciousness.
“Hahaha… White-Robed Exalted Immortal, This is the Lotus of Life and Death that I have unleashed at the expense of a hundred years of my cultivation base, and it can decide life and death at my behest! As long as you are within my black lotus realm, I can make the Lotus of Life and Death blossom anywhere, including where your heart is!”
Feng Wuya finally began to chortle gleefully at the sight of An Lin’s sorry state. “In a situation like this, not even a god is going to be able to save you!”
An Lin knew that Feng Wuya was not lying. The black lotus had replaced his heart, and not only was it absorbing his life-force energy at an alarming rate, but it also had an extremely powerful sealing effect, which prevented him from using any power!
He could only await his death in his current condition!
He was too careless!
As expected, there was no such thing as a weak Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure. All of them possessed unimaginable powers.
Even someone like Feng Wuya could suddenly pull out a mystic technique and place him in a life-threatening danger!
An Lin didn’t want to use his trump cards so early. He wanted to test our Feng Wuya’s strength first, but he didn’t think that Feng Wuya would act first and use one of his trump cards to detonate his heart…
What can I do…
An Lin extended a trembling hand as he tried to pull out the black lotus.
However, the black lotus was lodged firmly in his heart, and in his current debilitated state, he didn’t even have the strength to pull out the black lotus.
Was he really going to die here like this?
An Lin’s expression was filled with indignation, but he couldn’t reverse the inevitable flow of his life-force energy, and his face was wrinkling and wilting away at a rate discernible to the naked eye.
Death had never extended sympathy toward any living being.
Only when it descended did one realize just how powerless and insignificant they were.
Right at this moment.
A black light suddenly leaped up before piercing through the hole in An Lin’s chest in the blink of an eye!
Rip!
An extremely sharp blade punctured the black lotus before pulverizing it!
“What?!” Feng Wuya’s expression shifted drastically.
An Lin was also looking down in disbelief to discover an inky-black longsword protruding from his chest.
“L… Little Xie…”
A smile appeared on his face, and he slowly heaved a sigh of relief before sitting onto the ground.
A chubby little girl suddenly appeared before pulling out the Evil-Slaying Sword. She then turned to look at Feng Wuya with a cold expression.
“You almost died fighting a rookie Dao Integration Stage cultivator. You are a disgrace.”
An Lin could only give a resigned smile upon hearing Little Xie’s disdainful words, and he pulled out three immortal pills from his storage ring before swallowing all of them at the same time.
His heart had been detonated, but thankfully, his Evergreen Technique had advanced to the third stage, which allowed him to stay alive for a short time. Otherwise, that attack just then really would’ve killed him.
An Lin sat off to the side to meditate, and he activated his Evergreen Technique to its very maximum capacity, using its power to facilitate recovery alongside the effects of the three immortal pills.
“Who are you?” Feng Wuya’s expression shifted drastically as he stared at Little Xie.
“You haven’t seen a sword spirit before? What a filthy hillbilly!” Little Xie scoffed with a disdainful expression.
“Sword spirit? What’s that? Swords have spirits that can manifest themselves?” Feng Wuya was astonished. He had weapons that could speak, but he had never seen a life form jump out of a weapon before.
“That’s right. In order to explain my existence, we’ll have to trace all the way back to when heaven and earth were first created…” Little Xie decided to give Feng Wuya a crash course out of the kindness of her own heart.
An Lin immediately figured out what she was up to.
She was trying to buy him time in order to facilitate recovery!
He immediately took advantage of this opportunity to recover as quickly as he could, and soon, a heart had begun to reappear.
Immortal King Feng Wuya was no idiot. He immediately flared up with rage at the sight of An Lin’s recovery, and he ignored Little Xie as he pounced toward An Lin.
“You want to fight him? You’ll have to get past me first!”
Little Xie positioned herself before An Lin as she slashed her Evil-Slaying Sword toward Feng Wuya!
