CHAPTER 888: CHAPTER 888 LING XIU

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!

As they got closer to the Heavenly Arena, the sound of the bell became increasingly deafening!

The entire Creation Heaven Realm had already been alerted!

Accompanied by a gale-like roar, shadows of people came shooting from all directions, rushing towards the same location at breakneck speed!

Heavenly Arena!

Even though for many, the chance to become the Child of the World was minimal, witnessing the battle among the top Heavenly Prides of the Wanling Realm and the birth of the Child of the World was indeed a great honor!

Under the gathering of numerous figures, a gigantic arena appeared in the view of everyone.

This extremely grand arena seemed to be forged by the Heaven and Earth Laws, towering majestically above the clouds!

Even Lin Yi was greatly shocked by such a magnificent scene, and as a large number of figures arrived, a rainbow-like staircase suddenly extended from the Heavenly Arena, as if welcoming the various Heavenly Prides of the Wanling Realm who had arrived!

Everyone scrambled to rush up the staircase, eager to enter the Heavenly Arena ahead of others!

One after another figure flowed in, disappearing into the portal of the Heavenly Arena.

Lin Yi and Wang Lin also shot over from afar, landing on the staircase, intending to enter the Heavenly Arena!

However, just as they were stepping onto the staircase, they suddenly felt themselves locked on by a terrible killing intent!

"Watch out!"

Lin Yi immediately pulled Wang Lin back, and the two retreated just in time to avoid a lethal strike!

It was a seemingly immortal Sword Qi, striking heavily on the staircase, as if deeply etched, unable to dissipate for a long time!

"Who goes there?"

Wang Lin’s pretty face turned somber as she immediately scanned her surroundings, her eyes filled with anger.

In this Creation Heaven Realm, someone dared to strike at them? Did they not know of Ao Feng’s tragic end?

Lin Yi glanced around and spotted a straight, imposing figure not far away!

The momentum was like a Divine Sword splitting heaven and earth, standing tall in midair, looking down on everything!

This person was Ling Xiu!

Seeing this, everyone was taken aback; this Ling Xiu was one of the top ten new generation masters of the Wanling Realm, the number one Sword Cultivator of the new generation!

What was he trying to do, attempting to stop Lin Yi at the Heavenly Arena?

"Ling Xiu?"

From the mouths of others, Lin Yi learned his identity, his eyes narrowing slightly as he said calmly, "What, do you want to taste defeat in front of the Heavenly Arena in advance?"

Hearing this, Ling Xiu sneered coldly, a hint of mockery appearing in his eyes, "You? You think you’re worthy to make me taste defeat?"

As he spoke, a fierce Sword Dao Sacred Domain suddenly expanded with Ling Xiu at its center, carrying a bone-chilling Sword Momentum, pressing towards Lin Yi!

This Sword Dao Sacred Domain was nearly impregnable; the moment Ling Xiu released it, everyone felt a piercing chill, cold sweat pouring out!

Amidst such a Sword Dao Sacred Domain, even wills might be crushed—who would dare to face Ling Xiu?

Unexpectedly, even such a terrifying Sword Dao Sacred Domain failed to shake Lin Yi in the slightest, as if Lin Yi was a rock within this Sword Domain!

No matter the storm, I remain unshaken!

Seeing that his Sword Domain couldn’t harm Lin Yi, Ling Xiu’s eyes flashed with a fierce light. He then swung a sword, a strike as heavy as a thousand weights, containing immensely terrifying power.

The astounding sword force crashed onto the staircase leading to the Heavenly Arena, leaving a long crack and shaking the entire staircase violently!

It was like a fearsome Ancient Giant Beast pouring towards Lin Yi!

Yet, faced with Ling Xiu’s fierce onslaught, Lin Yi responded with a counter-sword thrust in front of him, instantly forming a boundary with the sword, like an invisible wall that blocked all of Ling Xiu’s Sword Qi!

No further step was possible!

Everyone was astonished!

This was point-counterpoint!

Lin Yi had already defeated one of the new generation’s top ten, Ao Feng, and now he was about to take on Ling Xiu as well?

And why was Ling Xiu attempting to intercept Lin Yi here, intending for a peerless duel outside the Heavenly Arena?

"Indeed impressive, no wonder Ao Feng was defeated!"

Ling Xiu seemed to regard Lin Yi with a bit more respect in his gaze; having his attack blocked so easily was unexpected, apparently, this lad indeed had some strength!

"Step aside."

Lin Yi’s eyes showed no fear, his momentum oppressive, "Otherwise, the so-called number one Sword Cultivator might fall here before entering the Heavenly Arena."

"Hah, just because you blocked one attack, do you think you can stand on par with me?"

A thick layer of mockery appeared on Ling Xiu’s face, "It seems defeating Ao Feng really gave you a lot of confidence."

"Making you forget who you are, and your origins."

He stared straight at Lin Yi, now determined to sanction Lin Yi right here, just because he made an appearance today!

"Think you’re strong?"

Lin Yi shook his head indifferently, "Then today, let the position of the Wanling Realm’s new generation number one Sword Cultivator change hands!"

Lin Yi’s tone was light, but the content of his words shocked everyone; from the sound of it, Lin Yi was determined to defeat Ling Xiu and replace him?

Just as the word "change" fell, Lin Yi silently swung a sword. This sword seemed unremarkable, ordinary, causing only a small ripple in the void as if its power was limited!

"Ridiculous sword!"

The mockery on Ling Xiu’s face grew even thicker; to him, this sword was full of flaws, very weak, merely child’s play in front of him, the Wanling Realm’s new generation number one Sword Cultivator!

Yet, in the next second, he suddenly sensed something amiss, as he found the power of the Sword Qi growing stronger, like a tree thriving, sprouting from a small sapling into a towering tree!

In the blink of an eye, it had become uncontrollable!

The mockery on Ling Xiu’s face quickly turned to shock. In a hurry, he activated his Heavy Sword to counter Lin Yi, but upon collision, sparks flew, his body was instantly sent flying back, and a trickle of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth!
