Chapter 626 - 314 Tiger Demon Spirit Token
As the sword light made contact with his body, a series of clinking and clanking sounds resonated, as if striking an iron wall.
Witnessing this scene, Lin Yi exhibited not the slightest surprise, considering that it was the Body Fusion Realm, two realms above Divinity Transformation.
During the attack, he controlled his strength, not unleashing the true damage of the Refining Void Realm but maintaining it around the middle stage of Divinity Transformation.
Even using the strength of Refining Void, it would be impossible to break through the bodily defenses of someone in the Body Fusion Realm. On the path of cultivation, the further one progressed within a realm, the longer it would take, and the more earth-shattering the increase in strength would become.
Thus, it was absolutely impossible for ordinary cultivators to overcome those of higher realms. Below the Nascent Soul in the Lower Realm, it might be possible for several cultivators of one stage lower to join forces and defeat a cultivator of one stage higher.
But above the Nascent Soul, this was no longer a possibility, just like how powerful cultivators of the Body Fusion Realm could not be defeated by several dozen from the Refining Void stage.
Of course, an anomaly like him, with the power of the Creation Method and a Title Effect, was not included in this.
At this moment, both Yuan Qingquan and the white-faced cultivator by his side also sensed the aura emitted by the sword lights, and they couldn’t help but feel surprised. To think a cultivator from the initial stage of Divinity Transformation could exert the strength of the middle stage—this ascender was no ordinary individual.
“Are you trying to tickle me? Is this the extent of your strength?” Elder Peng said with a cold laugh.
Lin Yi smiled faintly, and a chilly flame emerged on the dark blade, with the weight of Wan Jun as he launched an attack at Elder Peng. He didn’t transform the sword into myriad lights, opting for just this one strike.
Upon seeing this, Elder Peng became somewhat interested. He stretched out a hand and directly grasped the tip of the sword, feeling the damage from the chilly flame and couldn’t hide a trace of amazement on his face.
Witnessing this, City Lord Yuan Qingquan and the other white-faced cultivator used their Primordial Spirit to probe and were equally astonished.
Then, Elder Peng, holding onto the tip of the sword, forcibly pushed the flame back into the blade and said, “All right, put it away.”
With a thought, Lin Yi retracted his Flying Sword. The attack just now wasn’t comprised solely of chilly flames; it also contained the Element of Decay.
The identity of Invincible East came with Divine Skills of the Dark Elements, something that had already been confirmed to be displayable in the Lower Realm and naturally possible in the Upper Realm as well.
According to the previous division, the persona of Tian Ba held positive Elements, while the identity of Pedestrian A possessed ordinary means, representing the Nascent Soul of the Middle Dantian.
The Nascent Soul in the Middle Dantian, evolving from the Golden Core, seemed ordinary but possessed an extraordinary aspect, for it could withstand both positive and Dark Elements.
Elder Peng, still in his armor, showed a satisfied expression, “Girl, you have quite some strength, possessing both the Fire Attribute’s Cold Flame and the Wood Element’s Power of Decay. Quite impressive indeed.”
Yuan Qingquan also nodded in agreement, adding, “Truly unexpected, the Cold Flame is one thing, but this Wood Element’s Power of Decay is extremely difficult to comprehend. Eastern Daoist Friend is truly gifted.”
At this moment, the white-faced cultivator looked at Lin Yi with a smile, his gaze locked on him, “What a coincidence, I too am adept in the force of yin and softness. Why not stay in Qinglian City? Under my care and affection, you can be assured of an early entry into the Refining Void.”
“Elder Wei, the Eastern Daoist Friend is an ascender. It would be most appropriate for him to seek guidance at Tai Xuan Dao Palace,” Yuan Qingquan interjected as a reminder.
“I was just speaking off the cuff,” the white-faced cultivator waved his hand and said.
Lin Yi bowed with his fists clasped to all three and said, “I thank the City Lord and Elder Peng for your praises, and I’m grateful for the acknowledgement from this elder. However, the elder has many important affairs to attend to in Spirit City, and I do not wish to be a nuisance.”
At that moment, Elder Peng threw over a Token, “This is my Token. With it, you may use the Teleportation Array without any fee. Once you reach Tai Xuan Divine City, show it to a Dao Palace Disciple, and they will allow you entry.”
“However, whether you can become a disciple of the Dao Palace and receive instruction will still require you to pass a test. In my judgment, you should have no issues.”
“Eastern Daoist Friend, this Token from Elder Peng is far more useful than even my own as a City Lord,” Yuan Qingquan said with a smile.
Lin Yi held the Token, sensing a rich killing aura. On the obverse, there was a pattern of a tiger that seemed almost alive, giving one a sense of trepidation, while the reverse bore the character ‘Peng’.
He looked at it with the Eye of Emptiness and his expression changed because within this Token, a Tiger Demon Spirit was sealed. Judging by the aura, it was likely also of Body Fusion Realm.
He had previously had some doubts because the killing aura on Elder Peng was extremely heavy. Looking at it with the Eye of Emptiness, the killing aura was almost forming a second body outside of his own.
For a battle of the scale of Qinglian Spirit City, it would be impossible to accumulate such an abundance of killing aura.
From the Token, it seemed likely that Elder Peng had been slaying enemies in other main cities previously.
After a moment of thought, Lin Yi bowed with his fists clasped and returned the Token with both hands, “Thank you, Elder Peng. However, this Token is too precious, and I cannot return it in a short time. Perhaps it would be better to exchange it for a more ordinary item.”
