Lin Lingsu looked at Wei Ning, her expression complex for reasons she could not understand. The sky was a clear blue, and the distant mountains rose and fell in the horizon. Lin Lingsu raised her eyes to the mountains and said lightly, "Zhu You and Peace are intertwined in a thousand years of enmity. There must be a battle between us; we cannot avoid it. Let us understand it together today."
Wei Ning glanced around, noticing that everyone was looking at him with hatred in their eyes. At the forefront stood the woman who had once captivated his soul, now standing there with a pale face that faintly revealed a hint of blush. Among the thousands, she seemed utterly alone.
Wu Haozi, Master Wang, and his grandfather—these were the people who had left him one by one at this woman's hands. If he did not seek revenge for them, how could he stand in this world?
Wei Ning took a deep breath, his voice as cold as ice. "If that's the case, then let us fight!"
With that, Wei Ning stepped forward as if shrinking space itself, arriving beside Lin Lingsu. Lin Lingsu's long sword flickered into existence, but Wei Ning did not dodge; instead, he struck her directly with his palm.
With a loud clang, Lin Lingsu's sword shattered into two pieces. Wei Ning was indeed impervious to blades. Lin Lingsu's expression changed drastically as she quickly retreated. Although Wei Ning's palm wind brushed against her, it did not take her life.
When had Wei Ning become so powerful?
Lin Lingsu's mind raced; she dared not hesitate and swiftly dodged to the side. Stepping onto Yubu, she shouted loudly, "Mengmeng, assist me!"
Wei Ning stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the air. The Golden Armored Deity appeared before him. Wei Ning sneered, "This piece of scrap metal dares to obstruct me?" He then unleashed a palm strike toward the sky.
The Golden Armored Deity's Six Harmonies Seal suddenly expanded in midair and crashed down toward Wei Ning. In an instant, countless illusions seemed to appear around Wei Ning as red energy surged forth to meet the Six Harmonies Seal head-on.
Another deafening sound echoed as the brilliant Golden Armored Deity's seal was shattered by Wei Ning's strike, scattering myriad rays of light in all directions.
"Lin Lingsu, is this all you can do?"
After becoming a demigod, Wei Ning was indeed extraordinary.
At that moment, Lin Lingsu felt as though her heart had sunk into a sea of despair; her face turned pale. The current Wei Ning seemed capable of shattering everything, while she felt almost powerless against him.
Suddenly, crimson clouds flashed in the sky as fierce howls echoed from all directions. The entire sky began to turn blood-red as torrential rain fell without warning.
"Drip, drip..."
The rain carried a foul, metallic stench, staining the entire ground red. It fell drop by drop, viscous like threads, and wherever it landed, the grass and trees began to burn as if engulfed in flames, melting away in an instant. The world was drenched in a blood-red hue, chilling and terrifying.
"This rain!!" Lin Lingsu recalled the blood-red galaxy from yesterday and suddenly shouted, "Wei Ning, could it be that you actually..."
"That's right! Let this apocalyptic rain cleanse everything in Dragon Tiger Mountain," Wei Ning shouted loudly. This rain was the Nether Blood Sea that Wei Ning had opened up yesterday!
Now it had finally descended upon this realm.
"Ah!" The crowd suddenly erupted into wails like ghosts. In places tainted by the blood rain, people's faces began to melt away like ice placed over a flame, their features distorting grotesquely. Lin Lingsu felt a sharp pain; where the rainwater touched her skin, it felt as if she had encountered sulfuric acid—excruciatingly painful.
Wei Ning, however, stood amidst the crimson rain, coldly observing everything. He proclaimed loudly, "All things are born for humanity; those who oppose shall die standing or kneeling!" His voice echoed through the mountains like a demon's roar.
Lin Lingsu hurriedly sought shelter from the rain and shouted, "Wei Ning, are you trying to annihilate my Dragon Tiger Mountain clan?"
"Indeed!! Return to the Blessing!!" Wei Ning barked fiercely.
At that moment, due to the subtle influences of Wei Xian Gui and having absorbed the Three Souls and Seven Spirits from the Nether Blood Sea, Wei Ning had inevitably taken on some of Wei Xian Gui's erratic temperament.
A demigod descended; all beings in this world were mere ants!
"Hahaha! What a Return to the Blessing!" Suddenly, a piercing scream echoed from afar. A massive human skin appeared as if blocking out the sun, casting everything into shadow. The skin proclaimed loudly, "Return to Peace!" Above it emerged a face that made both Wei Ning and Lin Lingsu tremble in shock as they exclaimed in unison, "Ning Suwen!"
"Correct!" Ning Suwen shouted back. Suddenly, countless brilliant rays of light burst forth from the human skin and shot toward Wei Ning. He moved half a step and reached out; astonishingly, he held back the myriad rays with one hand. With a flick of his wrist, there was a thunderous boom as the rays shot toward a distant mountaintop, instantly leveling it!
"Lin Lingsu! Today my Dragon Tiger Mountain's millennia of foundation will be destroyed by this child. As the current sect leader, what do you plan to do?" Ning Suwen called out from midair.
Lin Lingsu replied resolutely, "I will fight with my life; I will not retreat an inch!"
"Good!" Ning Suwen cackled in mid-air. "Regardless of our past grievances, today, for the survival of Dragon Tiger, we shall join forces. I will borrow your Fengyun Nine Escape to strike Zhu You down, scattering its soul and obliterating its form. How does that sound?"
Lin Lingsu didn't hesitate and gritted her teeth. "It seems we have no other choice."
"Excellent, excellent!" Ning Suwen exclaimed. "I will borrow your body for a moment." With that, Ning Suwen dove down, enveloping Lin Lingsu within her. Lin Lingsu's entire being began to emit a golden light, a thunderous roar echoing around them as Ning Suwen wrapped herself around Lin Lingsu like a silkworm spinning a cocoon, and Lin Lingsu's body rapidly transformed.
As the golden light faded, Lin Lingsu found herself wrapped in a splendid shroud, just like Xu Suwen before her. The two "individuals" quickly merged into one, yet Lin Lingsu's appearance remained unchanged.
Lin Lingsu's eyes sparkled with brilliance as she pointed forward, causing the blood rain to cease. A Seven Star Longsword materialized in her hand and shot towards Wei Ning like a startled swan. Wei Ning held her Red Umbrella, and the two clashed in mid-air.
Two massive beams of light erupted like two dragons imprisoned for millennia.
"Boom!" The ground trembled as if it were shattering. With another sound, Wei Ning felt an immense weight behind her; something collided with her and suddenly pressed down with overwhelming force—it was an enormous Lotus.
Wei Ning's body plummeted rapidly under the pressure. Lin Lingsu (Ning Suwen) laughed loudly from above, "I have infused this object with the power of Three Mountains and Five Peaks. From now on, you shall be forever suppressed beneath my Dragon Tiger Mountain, just like Sun Wukong."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Wei Ning crashed to the ground. Lin Lingsu continuously cast spells upon the Lotus, adding more seals. "How about adding a Himalayas?"
"And the Pyrenees too! Witness the might of my Dragon Tiger Mountain!" Lin Lingsu shouted triumphantly. Wei Ning felt her entire body growing heavier and found herself utterly unable to move beneath the Lotus.
