CHAPTER 1258: CHAPTER 1256: BATTLE ACROSS EIGHT DIRECTIONS!

Around, people screamed. A powerful Eighth Layered Venerable and a terrifying Eight-star Demon General, both of them charged at Lin Xuan at the same time!

The grey-clothed elder was immensely powerful and extremely formidable among the Eighth Layered Venerables.

The Golden Lion beside him was even more terrifying, feared by many Eighth Layer Venerables.

At this moment, these two terrifying existences simultaneously attacked Lin Xuan, causing everyone’s expressions to change drastically.

However, Lin Xuan remained calm, swinging his arms to confront the enemies.

On his left hand emerged a dazzling Sword Qi, akin to a Supreme Divine Sword, slicing towards the grey-clothed elder.

On his right hand, he unleashed the Dragon Capturing Hand, two gigantic Spiritual Power hands darting forward swiftly.

Boom!

The Sword Qi was fierce, carrying boundless bloody killing intent, reaching an extreme level of ferocity, it fiercely slashed the grey-clothed elder, emitting a powerful roaring sound.

The grey-clothed elder was strong, but facing such Sword Qi, he couldn’t help but avoid the edge, his body retreating rapidly like a ghost.

"What? He repelled him!"

Everyone was shocked, unable to believe that such a formidable grey-clothed elder was repelled by a single sword strike.

However, what shocked them even more happened afterward.

The Dragon Capturing Hand Lin Xuan unleashed transformed into two giant dragons, swiftly winding around the Golden Lion.

"Roar!"

The Golden Lion roared furiously, its golden Qi-Blood soared to the sky, dyeing the entire sky red, its powerful strength caused the entire city to tremble.

But even so, it still couldn’t break free from the grasp of the Dragon Capturing Hand, firmly trapped by the two giant dragons.

People widened their eyes in disbelief. That was an Eight-star Demon General, and moreover, an Ancient Strange Beast like the Golden Lion, a being of extreme strength!

None of the Eighth Layered Venerables could possibly contend against it, perhaps only a Ninth Layer Venerable could subdue it.

Yet now, a Seventh-layered Heaven youth trapped the Golden Lion in one move, it was truly overwhelming.

Although the Duan Family Martial Artists were angry, upon witnessing this scene, they all froze, not knowing what to do.

The grey-clothed elder steadied his figure, his eyes filled with deep apprehension.

He never thought the opponent’s strength would be so formidable, able to withstand both him and the Golden Lion’s attacks simultaneously.

This was not good news for them, considering that two elders from the War God Palace were following behind the opponent.

Those two were extremely formidable, even he had no confidence against them.

Thus, the grey-clothed elder snorted coldly, deciding to retreat, hoping to gather people before making a move.

After all, he knew Lin Xuan was attending the Shen Family’s birthday banquet, as long as he led people there before the banquet ended, he could definitely slay the opponent.

"Let’s go!"

The grey-clothed elder waved his hand, rescuing the Golden Lion with a few powerful guards before flying out of the city.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

But soon, they were rebounded.

The originally transparent void suddenly rippled, like an invisible wall trapping them.

"What’s going on?"

The grey-clothed elder’s face was gloomy, feeling a foreboding.

And the surrounding Martial Artists were terrified: "Elder, this is bad, we’re trapped here, surrounded by these invisible walls."

"What? He dares to trap us!"

The grey-clothed elder was shocked.

"Don’t struggle, this array isn’t something you can break in a short time."

Lin Xuan said coldly.

Under his feet, mystical engravings spread in all directions, the invisible array was set up by him.

At this moment, the surrounding Martial Artists had long since fled in fear, leaving only the Duan Family and Lin Xuan and others within the array.

"Kid, you’re too arrogant, although you had the upper hand just now, it doesn’t mean you can kill us!"

The grey-clothed elder roared.

"Whether I can or not, you’ll know after trying!"

Lin Xuan’s voice was icy, he didn’t plan to let these people go.

"Elder, what should we do?" the Duan Family Martial Artists asked.

"This array is indeed strange, forcibly breaking through isn’t something that can be done in a short time."

"So, what we need to do now is to fight the opponent."

"The commotion here must have been noticed by the Shen Family, rest assured, once the Shen Family arrives, we’ll be safe."

"Don’t forget, the Shen Family is friends with our Duan Family."

"Yes, this is the Shen Family’s territory, the kid doesn’t dare to do anything!"

Hearing the grey-clothed elder’s words, the Duan Family Martial Artists relaxed.

Then, they looked at Lin Xuan, showing ferocious expressions.

"I refuse to believe this kid can withstand all of us!"

"Might as well take this opportunity to kill him."

"Alright."

The grey-clothed elder nodded, he also decided to try.

"Everyone follow my command, attack!"

Fifteen Duan Family Martial Artists, hearing the command, drew their swords and unleashed a powerful aura, quickly charging towards Lin Xuan.

"Young Master!"

Seeing the approaching Martial Artists, the Ninth Elder softly called.

But Lin Xuan shook his head slightly, saying there’s no need, I’ll handle it myself.

Upon hearing this, the two from the Ninth Elder’s side nodded, retreating to the rear.

If they had worried about Lin Xuan before, after the previous battle, they were not worried at all.

Because now they knew Lin Xuan’s strength was absolutely formidable, among the Venerable Eighth Layer Heaven, no one could harm him.

Seeing Lin Xuan taking action alone, the fifteen Duan Family Martial Artists revealed sinister smiles.

They were not ordinary Martial Artists, all above the Seventh-layered Heaven, with many reaching the Seventh Heavenly Realm Peak.

Though their strength couldn’t match the Eighth Layer Venerables, they formed a team that could unleash powerful array skills.

It could be said they were the Duan Family’s elite.

The fifteen in the air constantly changed positions, forming a peculiar array, rapidly closing in on Lin Xuan.

Simultaneously, each person’s sword shone dazzlingly, swiftly striking out.

Fifteen rays of light dazzling like a rainbow, under the array’s enhancement, even the Eighth Layer Venerables dared not resist.

Moreover, behind the Golden Lion and the grey-clothed elder didn’t hold back, quickly launching two terrifying attacks.

The grey-clothed elder swung out a spiral-shaped ray, easily tearing through the void, carrying sharp killing intent.

On the other side, the Golden Lion’s Qi-Blood soared, condensing into a golden lion shadow in the air, quickly pouncing on Lin Xuan.

At this moment, all around, above and below, there were endless killing moves surrounding Lin Xuan.

"Duan Family, huh? It’s time to collect some interest!"

Lin Xuan whispered, his eyes emitting an extraordinarily sharp light, along with a strange black flame flashing by.

In the next moment, internally, the Great Dragon Sword Soul, Blood Sword Inheritance, and Black Flame Martial Soul operated together, unleashing terrifyingly powerful energy.

With a clang, the Lonely Star Sword autonomously flew up, landing in Lin Xuan’s hand, an invisible Sword Qi piercing through the heavens and earth.
