Chapter 707: Counterkill

“Since you’ve recognized me, I can’t let you live!”

Shen Yidao’s figure expanded, like a willow leaf, drifting with the wind, and once again slashed toward where Lin Miao stood.

This slash was from top to bottom.

The majestic saber energy almost split the air in half.

The shockwave generated by the strong airflow clash was like a level twelve hurricane forming on a flat ground, agitating the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into violent tremors.

This is the level of an expert at the Tianyuan level.

Such an attack method has already transcended the human realm, no wonder Tianyuan experts are called “True Lords”, celestial beings or real people.

The leap in the level of life allows control of energy unimaginable to ordinary people, truly making it as simple as crushing a human like squashing an ant.

A saber strike of such unparalleled might.

Lin Miao, of course, had no ability to withstand it directly since he hadn’t even touched the threshold of Tianyuan, but in controlling the elemental energy of the world, he had already grasped some ahead of time.

He was not an ordinary upper-grade Meridian Passage Realm expert.

Clang!

The jade ornament tying Lin Miao’s hair suddenly shattered, and his black hair flew up wildly, in this moment, he truly felt the threat of death.

The wind suddenly became stagnant.

Lin Miao, his gaze as sharp as a sword, stared at Shen Yidao, a hundred steps away.

At this moment, Shen Yidao’s aura was surging like a tide, holding the Azure Heaven Saber, the treasured saber of the Green Blade Sect, glowing with a cold, sinister light. Wherever the saber energy passed, it tore through the air, emitting a piercing whistle.

Lin Miao took a deep breath, his steps suddenly became as light as the breeze, using his body technique to the utmost, his figure weaving like a swimming fish through the saber shadows.

Shen Yidao was astonished.

Despite being merely at the upper-grade Meridian Passage Realm, his opponent could accurately find the gaps in the elemental energy of the world, skillfully evading his killing maneuver.

Ah Huo!

A fiery beast shadow appeared in mid-air, opened its mouth wide, and a stream of flame spewed out, rolling towards Shen Yidao.

A fire-breathing beast!

Shen Yidao hurriedly withdrew his saber and retreated; he never expected that Lin Miao would have a contracted beast capable of controlling fire by his side.

Beasts can form contracts with human martial artists, provided you have the skill to make it willingly submit to you.

This is difficult; beasts are very strong, especially adult ones that are particularly hard to subdue, and beasts are rare to begin with, a common martial artist might not even encounter one in their lifetime, let alone subdue it.

Only the offspring of beasts, if raised from a young age, have the potential to be subdued.

Wait a minute, the black cat that woman was holding just now?

No, it’s a black panther, a cub of a black panther beast…

Shen Yidao felt envious.

What kind of dumb luck does Lin Miao have to own a fire-breathing beast and a black panther beast cub?

He dreamed of owning a contracted beast, but it’s something that one can only encounter by chance, knowing that even top-tier sects have guardian beasts.

Some first-rate sects do too, without one, they’re embarrassed to call themselves first-rate.

Shen Yidao’s eyes flashed with greed; this fire-breathing beast must already be contracted, killing its master would injure the beast too, and it wouldn’t easily submit again. But that little black panther in Sun Youwei’s arms might not have signed a contract yet, if he could seize it…

Eliminate Lin Miao, then the Snow Mountain Sect twins and the little girl would be at his mercy. The little girl seems to still be a virgin…

“Lianxin, Liansuo, take Youwei and leave quickly!”

Lin Miao hurriedly sent a transmission to Lianxin and Liansuo.

Lianxin and Liansuo looked reluctant, but they knew they couldn’t help by staying, and might even make things worse.

“Lin, can you handle another of my slashes?” Shen Yidao shook the Azure Heaven Saber in his hand, a terrifying saber energy emanating from it.

The saber energy stirred the elemental energy of the world, twisting, resonating, causing the air in this part of the sky to start vibrating.

“This is the insight I gained after advancing to Tianyuan. Lin, you are the first to witness this move of mine, prepare to die!”

Heaven-Shaking Saber.

“Is that so, it’s merely stealing a bit of elemental energy for personal use!” Lin Miao retorted disdainfully, his heart as cold as ice.

This was the most dangerous battle since his reincarnation from another world.

If he loses, he might have nothing.

But he’s not without a fighting chance.

Because he’s extremely sensitive to elemental energy, and being a doctor, he noticed what others might not.

Shen Yidao was injured, and not lightly either, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had the chance to maneuver under Shen Yidao’s saber so readily.

This guy, aside from being able to mobilize elemental energy, now had real combat strength barely above the Great Perfection of Meridian Realm.

The gap wasn’t particularly large.

Otherwise, he would’ve fled long ago.

He called out the Fire Kirin, with the Ice Hou hidden on the side, one man, two beasts, it might not be impossible to fight, maybe even reverse and kill him.

“You sharp-tongued brat, once I kill you, I’ll take your fiancée and those twins back, I will ‘cherish’ them well, hahaha…”

“Noisy, you take one of my moves!”

A dragon’s roar erupted from Lin Miao’s body, accompanied by the bellow of a war elephant, the terrifying, mighty force as if a giant dragon were flying on top of a giant elephant.

The elemental energy of heaven and earth was stirred up.

The saber energy at the edge of Shen Yidao’s Heaven-Regretting Saber showed signs of collapsing.

Shen Yidao was shocked.

This Lin Miao, obviously only at the upper-grade Meridian Passage Realm, could actually stir up elemental energy, even creating terrifying celestial phenomena.

What cultivation technique is he practicing?

“Who exactly are you?” Shen Yidao started to feel frightened, worried he might have encountered some terrifying heritage in the world.

If he provokes some ancient existence, he’ll be the one facing doom.

The dragon’s roar and elephant’s bellow combined into a solid giant fist.

Drawing a perfect straight line, it charged towards the Heaven-Regretting Saber at a speed faster than the eye could catch. Shen Yidao swung his saber to block, but with a “crack,” the saber energy dispersed, and the fist that visibly dimmed struck his chest fiercely.

Bang!

Shen Yidao flew back like a meteor, then flipped in mid-air before falling freely.

“You dare hurt me?” Feeling a faint pain in his chest, ribs possibly cracked, Shen Yidao tasted blood rising in his throat, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and looked in disbelief at Lin Miao, who appeared before him in a flash.

Freeze!

Just as Shen Yidao was about to gather energy to recover, how could Lin Miao give him the chance, as the saying goes, when they’re down, finish them off!

The Ice Hou, long lying in ambush nearby, unleashed a meticulously planned icy breath, enveloping Shen Yidao’s head.

Extremely cold.

Shen Yidao had no surprises, instantly freezing into an ice sculpture.

Lin Miao gathered his breath, beginning to furiously punch the ice sculpture, thousands of strikes landing on his opponent’s heart in a breath.

Although frozen, Shen Yidao’s consciousness remained clear, helplessly watching himself being beaten to death.

He probably never imagined dying in such a manner.

Sect Leader of the Green Blade Sect, a formidable hero, met his end like this.
