This was the core difference between them and the reason for the huge gap between their power.

Qing Zhe had clearly realized this, which was why he had swapped out his primordial spirit power sword for an azure sword.

Swoosh!

The battle erupted once more. The Broken Blade’s illusory and almost transparent body zipped through the air, easily neutralizing the opponent’s attacks.

Roar!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun executed the Pulao Roar. Earth-shaking sound waves transformed into a giant wave and rushed through the air, shattering space as it swallowed everything in its path.

Qing Zhe immediately groaned in pain as he trembled uncontrollably.

“Despicable!”

His eyes were frightening to look at and were filled with rage. Because his primordial spirit had been injured by the Broken Blade earlier, being hit by the soundwave felt even more unbearable.

“Despicable? This is a battle. Do I have to teach that to an Omega Sword Sect true disciple like you?”

As Lin Xun spoke, he activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step and went on the offensive.

He intended to subdue his opponent and end the battle in one fell swoop. Hence, he did not hold anything back.

Boom!

A crystalline snow-white hornless ice dragon phantasm rose into the air and roared at the world as Lin Xun’s speed soared to an unimaginable high.

His long hair flew behind him in a horizontal line, and his black eyes resembled the abyss. He displayed his full might, awing everyone with his peerless aura!

Qing Zhe did not take any evasive maneuvers and chose to clash head-on.

Boom!

The space around them was destroyed. The Broken Blade and a sword danced erratically in the air as a torrential radiance swept outwards like a flood.

The watching cultivators were astonished. Although Qing Zhe had shown how strong he was earlier, he was now being thoroughly suppressed by Lin Xun and was barely hanging on.

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs’ expressions turned exceedingly ugly. It was an unbearable outcome for them, and they felt as if they had swallowed a dead fly. The better Lin Xun performed, the more sullen and aggrieved they felt.

Thud thud thud!

Qing Zhe could feel his blood churning in his veins while his hands and feet had become numb from the impact. His spirit was also shaken as indescribable anger and frustration bubbled within him.

How is this possible?

He didn’t dare to believe what was happening.

He was an extremely powerful individual among the Cyclic Derivation experts and boasted extraordinary battle power. He was considered a heaven pride even among the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s younger generation, and even ordinary perfect Cyclic Derivation experts were unable to enter his eyes.

Despite this, he was currently being suppressed by a Heaven Ascension youngster!

Qing Zhe had always been someone with strong mental fortitude, but he felt extremely ashamed at this moment. If the news that he had gotten defeated in a lower plane were to spread back to the sect, he would become a laughing stock!

Crack!

The Broken Blade soon snapped Qing Zhe’s sword.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun stepped forward and pressed down with his hand, creating a Bi’an Stamp that gave off a blinding brilliance as it attempted to crush Qing Zhe.

Thump!

Qing Zhe was sent flying with a caved-in chest.

An uproar erupted in the surroundings. The sight of Qing Zhe being subdued so easily made the empire cultivators feel as if they were dreaming.

At the same time, the overwhelming combat power displayed by Lin Xun made the empire cultivators’ blood boil in excitement.

Who could have imagined that a Heaven Ascension youngster would so one-sidedly beat down a true disciple from the Omega Sword Sect?

Moreover, that disciple had previously subdued many Cyclic Derivation bigwigs with only three sword moves!

The comparison showed just how irrationally powerful Lin Xun was.

“Think you’re so great just because you’re from the Omega Sword Sect? How dare you act all high and mighty in the empire. In the end, you were still beaten by Young Master Lin.”

“This is the fate of someone who looks down on everyone!”

“Exhilarating, how exhilarating! Young Master Lin more than lives up to his title as the strongest among the empire’s younger generation.”

Gu Dongting’s expression darkened at the fearless verbal attacks on Qing Zhe, causing him to release a terrifying aura as he fought the strong impulse to take action.

Qing Zhe’s sorry predicament had brought shame to Gu Dongting.

However, he soon sensed an extremely terrifying power spread nearby as if warning him that a battle between King experts would erupt the moment he tried anything funny.

“It’s him…” Gu Dongting instantly locked onto his opponent. It was Zhao Tailai. Gu Dongting’s eyes rippled for a moment and ultimately decided to restrain himself.

After all, the empire wasn’t the Omega Sword Sect’s territory. No matter how confident Gu Dongting was in himself, he knew that he would face many obstructions if he acted out of place.

On the battlefield, Qing Zhe was already incapable of fighting back. He was like a scarecrow being battered by a torrential thunderstorm, receiving numerous injuries that left him with broken bones, a bloodied body, and messy hair.

Qing Zhe’s servant, Chen Feng anxiously cried out with an ashen expression, “Master!”

He had acted very arrogantly previously and showed no regard for the empire cultivators. Hence, his panicked appearance caused several nearby cultivators to smirk.

Thud!

Qing Zhe was slammed into the ground, creating a giant pit. His disheveled appearance looked very pitiful.

His eyes bulged from their sockets, unable to accept the result. With a roar, he rose to his feet only to freeze in place as cold sweat filled his forehead.

The almost transparent Broken Blade was pressed against his throat, threatening to take his head off the moment he moved.

He had lost!

Qing Zhe felt as if his entire world was falling apart. His expression fluctuated indeterminately while his face twisted in frustration, nearly causing him to cough blood.

“Didn’t you claim Young Master Lin was nothing? Why have you been defeated instead?” Mocking laughter sounded from the empire cultivators.

Qing Zhe was enraged as his face burned with embarrassment. He was a disciple of the Omega Sword Sect and an outstanding heaven pride. He had originally been extremely confident and arrogant and looked down on all the cultivators from the same generation in the lower plane.

However, he now suffered a crushing defeat in front of everyone. It was a heavy mental blow that Qing Zhe was unable to accept for a time.

“According to our agreement, you will truthfully answer two questions of mine, and I will immediately let you go.” Lin Xun landed on the ground as his black eyes focused on Qing Zhe.

To be frank, if Qing Zhe had used primordial spirit attacks in the battle earlier, Lin Xun would not have been able to subdue him so quickly.

After all, Qing Zhe was strong. He was definitely the strongest heaven pride Lin Xun had encountered until now.

However, there was no longer any meaning in talking about such things.

To everyone else, the process wasn’t important but the outcome. This was the cold reality.

Qing Zhe never imagined that he would be the loser. Hence, Lin Xun’s words made him feel increasingly uncomfortable and made him hate Lin Xun even more.

Lin Xun obviously didn’t care about such things and asked, “Tell me if it was Yun Qingbai who asked you to challenge me.”

Qing Zhe’s pupils shrank as his expression fluctuated indeterminately.

Just as he was preparing to answer, Lin Xun cut in, “No need to reply, I already know the answer. My second question is: did Yun Qingbai instruct you to kill me during the duel?”

Qing Zhe’s reply was swift this time. He coldly snorted and said, “Who do you think you are? How can Senior Brother Yun remember the likes of you?”

“He didn’t?” Lin Xun frowned.

Qing Zhe icily said, “Senior Brother Yun is honest and dignified. He doesn’t need to use me if he wants to kill you!”

Lin Xun stared at Qing Zhe for a long time. In the end, he was certain that Qing Zhe wasn’t lying.

However, Lin Xun didn’t understand. Since Yun Qingbai instructed Qing Zhe to challenge him, why didn’t he give the order to kill?

Could Yun Qingbai have another goal?

“You can go.”

Lin Xun turned around, no longer caring about Qing Zhe. After all, he was merely a pitiful worm that was running errands for Yun Qingbai.

Lin Xun’s disinterest was akin to a sharp knife stabbing into Qing Zhe’s heart, making him feel humiliated and angered like never before.

“Lin Xun!”

Qing Zhe released an almost bestial roar. “I will one day settle the score between us!”

Lin Xun continued to ignore him. After all, these were merely the unresigned words of a loser. It was laughable and pathetic.

Qing Zhe trembled in anger. He was a true disciple of the Omega Sword Sect who had subdued many Cyclic Derivation bigwigs with his three sword moves.

However, he was defeated and ignored by a Heaven Ascension youngster. The intense humiliation nearly made Qing Zhe go crazy.

“Let’s leave.”

In the distance, Gu Dongting could no longer bear to continue watching. He arrived next to Qing Zhe and took him away. He had already suffered enough humiliation and would only lose more face if he were to stay here any longer.

Even Gu Dongting himself felt ashamed and did not wish to linger a moment longer.

“Exhilarating!”

“Hahaha…”

Thunderous cheers exploded as a jubilant mood swiftly took over the crowd. Even someone as powerful as Qing Zhe had been crushed by Lin Xun. It made the empire cultivators feel proud and excited.

This was their Lin Xun, the strongest heaven pride!

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs were dumbfounded and sported rather interesting expressions. Who could have expected such an outcome?

By this time, Lin Xun had already returned to Mind Cleaning Peak and was being escorted away by the Lin Clan’s higher-ups.

Outside Mind Cleansing Peak, the empire cultivators began to heatedly discuss the events that had transpired, unable to contain their excitement.

“Hmph, Qing Zhe is so childish. I wonder if he would regret pushing for today’s duel if he knew that Lin Xun had slaughtered several Half-Step Kings in the Blood Kill Battlefield.”

The bigwigs from the imperial army gloated. After all, this was their expected outcome from the start!

“This battle will shake the Forbidden City and the rest of the world! After today, maybe only the true top experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain will be able to vie with Lin Xun!”

This was the conclusion many bigwigs arrived at.
