Chapter 734: The Triggered Restriction
On the Demon Sealing Stele, a terrifying sealing power emanated. Lin Feng could even feel the demon sword in his hand trembling slightly, as if it was somewhat wary of this Demon Sealing Stele.
"You borrow the power of the demon sword, so I'll seal the demon sword to death, then kill you and take the demon sword." The green-robed man sneered. Then, his hands frantically formed seals and struck the Demon Sealing Stele. His arm traced across the stele, and instantly, a terrifying black light burst forth from it. The stele expanded again, becoming the size of a person, and the two characters "Seal Demon" carved on it shone with extremely intense light.
"Go!" The green-robed man shouted angrily. The Demon Sealing Stele shot out, transforming into a beam of black light. A rumbling sound echoed as it flew straight toward Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's eyes were still filled with endless demonic light. He raised the demon sword with both hands and slashed out a terrifying sword beam, chopping directly at the Demon Sealing Stele.
"Boom!" The sword beam struck the Demon Sealing Stele. The stele shook violently, but showed no signs of cracking, not even a single fissure. The hardness of this stele was astonishing—even the demon sword couldn't shatter it.
"The Demon Sealing Stele is a rare treasure. Though your demon sword is powerful, it still cannot shake it." The green-robed man sneered, his tone filled with strong confidence in the stele.
The Demon Sealing Stele was an ancient stone, existing specifically to seal demon gods. Legend had it that it was once a Heaven-Shaking Stone, later shattered into pieces. The stele before him was just one of those fragments, which he had obtained during a fortuitous encounter. In fact, his ability to step into the Honored Martial Realm and comprehend the Sealing Essence was inseparable from this Demon Sealing Stele.
"Go." A sealing light struck the Demon Sealing Stele. The stele paused only for a moment before continuing forward, rushing toward Lin Feng. A terrifying black beam seemed to envelop Lin Feng entirely, strongly suppressing the demonic nature within him. The demon sword trembled even more violently.
"Kill!" Lin Feng roared, fearless. He swung his sword, unleashing a strike imbued with a terrifying Sword Dao Will. This sword strike could even tear through space, yet it could not move the Demon Sealing Stele.
"Boom!" The Demon Sealing Stele collided fiercely with the demon sword in Lin Feng's hand. A terrifying sealing power erupted. From the stele, intense demonic light attempted to seal Lin Feng's demon sword, causing it to tremble incessantly.
"Not even at the Heavenly Martial Realm, yet you dare to contend with the bright moon, even with the demon sword's help." The green-robed man spat out a voice. His hands danced even more violently, and another terrifying demonic light struck the Demon Sealing Stele. He shouted, "Seal!"
"Boom!" The demon sword shook violently. From the Demon Sealing Stele, black sealing beams spread out, wrapping around the demon sword, trying to seal it.
The demon sword possessed its own life will and refused to submit. With a loud crash, it broke free from the terrifying sealing power and directly trembled into Lin Feng's body, as if fleeing from the Demon Sealing Stele's sealing force.
"Can you escape?" The green-robed Honored Martial laughed. Once the demon sword hid, he could easily kill Lin Feng. Without a host, where could the demon sword hide?
Those who become peerless experts, aside from possessing terrifying talent, all have heaven-defying luck. After all, on the Nine Heavens Continent, where the strong are as numerous as clouds, the danger of death is ever-present. Those with luck can seize opportunities from crises, while those without luck will die.
And his luck seemed quite good. He had obtained the ancient stone, the Demon Sealing Stele, and now the demon sword and Snow Linglong had delivered themselves to his doorstep.
"Seal!" The green-robed man struck out another hand seal. Even though the demon sword was dodging, he wouldn't let it go. Even after killing Lin Feng, he still needed to subdue the demon sword. This Demon Sealing Stele was the demon sword's nemesis.
At that moment, the Demon Sealing Stele flashed with illusory light. The massive stele appeared somewhat ethereal, gradually shrinking, and directly imprinted itself onto Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's body shook violently. The Demon Sealing Stele, like the demon sword, had directly entered his body, tracking the demon sword to seal it completely.
As the Demon Sealing Stele entered his body along with the demon sword, the demonic light in Lin Feng's eyes slowly faded. The demon sword, sealed within him by the stele, caused his demonic intent to weaken greatly, and the demonic nature receded.
Looking at the green-robed man before him, Lin Feng's icy gaze was extremely grim. Without the power of the demon sword, he was no match for this opponent at all. This was an Honored Martial Realm expert.
The green-robed man gave Lin Feng a cold smile, killing intent flickering. Lin Feng was doomed.
"Meow!" The cat demon floated in the void, revealing a smug expression, as if flattering its master. That bastard Lin Feng had caused it to transform into a stone stele, and later, encountering this green-robed man, it had become a slave demon, controlled by a human. It wished it could tear Lin Feng apart with its own hands. Now, Lin Feng was finally going to die.
"Lin Feng!" Tang Youyou chased over, stomping heavily on the ground, her body leaping into the air. But a cat's screech rang out, and a sharp claw swiped directly at her. With a crashing sound, a bloody gash appeared on her arm, and her body fell back down.
Looking up, she saw the strange light in the cat demon's eyes. Tang Youyou's gaze turned icy and red.
Was that young genius going to fall just like that? Falling at the hands of a powerful Honored Martial expert? Lin Feng must be extremely unwilling, right?
"Now, die." Terrifying green light sealed the space around them. Lin Feng couldn't move at all, watching helplessly as the green-robed man stepped toward him. Was he really going to die like this? He was indeed unwilling—not because he feared death, but because his vengeance was unfulfilled, and he hadn't yet helped Meng Qing regain her human form. How could he die? He refused to die like this.
But facing an Honored Martial expert, his unwillingness was useless. The gap in their power was too vast, impossible to bridge. With just a thought, the opponent could immobilize him.
"Kill!" A cold shout came from the green-robed Honored Martial's mouth. A terrifying palm strike shot directly toward Lin Feng's chest. If this palm landed, Lin Feng would surely die.
"Meng Qing, run!" Lin Feng roared. He grabbed Snow Linglong, who was rushing forward, and hurled her backward with all his strength. At the same moment, both of them had the same thought—to die for the other.
"Wuwu..." Snow Linglong's body tumbled through the void, letting out a mournful whimper. Her watery eyes were filled with tears. She frantically stopped her retreat and rushed back toward Lin Feng.
But it was too late.
"Boom!" A dull sound rang out. The green-robed Honored Martial's palm struck Lin Feng's chest, causing his body to shake violently. At that moment, time seemed to freeze. Meng Qing and Tang Youyou's bodies stiffened in place.
Four teardrops flowed from the corners of the human's and the demon's eyes. Meng Qing wanted to roar, but at this moment, she realized how fragile she was.
And Tang Youyou found that her heart ached—an ache she had never felt before.
Her heart was actually in pain!
"Die!" A cold voice came from the green-robed Honored Martial's mouth. The destructive force was about to annihilate Lin Feng.
"Boom!" A terrifying white light burst forth from Lin Feng's body. This white light was so dazzling that it stung Meng Qing and Tang Youyou's eyes, making them blink. Accompanying this white light was an aura so powerful it was terrifying.
The green-robed man's body retreated wildly the moment the white light burst forth. When that destructive force landed, he felt that what was being destroyed was not Lin Feng, but rather, it seemed to have triggered some kind of restriction.
His eyes locked onto Lin Feng's direction. In front of Lin Feng, the bursting white light slowly coalesced into a figure—an illusory figure.
This phantom was an old man. His eyes held a terrifying, majestic aura. His wild, disheveled hair seemed as solid as a real entity, fluttering and dancing in the void. That aura made the green-robed man's body tremble incessantly. So terrifying.
How could this be? How could this be?
Lin Feng actually had a soul restriction on him, guarded by such a terrifying expert. When he was about to be destroyed, this restriction was triggered, and the old man's phantom appeared!
PS: Not a single flower today, I've been utterly crushed. This makes me feel like the weekend burst was meaningless. After the burst, I'm just offering myself up for others to trample again. Crying! And a cute girl gave me a commander's consolation. Begging for support!
