Lin Chen watched as the opponent’s Longsword swung toward his head, knowing he couldn’t afford a direct hit and had to quickly dodge.
He leaped into the air, dodging the Longsword which crashed to the ground, creating an abyss-like pit of unfathomable depth.
He thought he had escaped, but suddenly heard another Longsword slicing toward his head from behind.
Lin Chen, not only agile and swift but also possessing eyes that could see through everything, realized that the elderly man in front of him had mastered the legendary art of duplication.
The elderly man had divided one of his grandchildren into multiple bodies, each wielding a weapon capable of launching fierce attacks against him.
Knowing there was no way to escape now, Lin Chen was forced to face the challenge head-on, raising his weapon above his head.
All the Longswords struck his weapon, sending a powerful shockwave that almost caused him to bleed.
Lin Chen felt his body being driven underground, his chest surging with pain, and blood gushing out.
He realized in that moment that the opponent’s strength far exceeded his own.
"Ignorant child, I’ve told you not to force me to act, but you still don’t listen,"
The opponent’s tone was filled with unprecedented mockery.
After hearing this, Lin Chen could no longer tolerate it, and tightly clenched his fists.
The Five Elements Patriarch had now completely withdrawn his power; his opponent was still severely injured, and he believed that his own full-force attack left his opponent defenseless.
Seeing the Five Elements Patriarch now withholding his power, Lin Chen leaped onto the ground.
"So, are you sure you want to keep fighting? Remember, I haven’t used my full strength. If I had, you’d be dead by now."
The Five Elements Patriarch sought not to defeat others but to enlighten them.
As long as the young man before him could still be influenced by him, he would refrain from attacking.
Lin Chen scoffed at the old man’s advice.
"Your words are too arrogant, aren’t they? Do you think I’ve used my full strength?"
Lin Chen’s tone was calm with disdain; he thought the old man was too arrogant, believing that if he used his full strength, the old man would have met his end.
"Alright then, today I want to see just what your full power looks like."
After saying this, Lin Chen leaped high and tightly gripped his Longsword, which emitted a mighty sword aura.
This Longsword was even stronger than the one used by the Five Elements Patriarch moments ago.
"Prepare to face my wrath!"
Lin Chen shouted angrily and swung his Longsword at the Five Elements Patriarch.
Though he was a cultivator of this skill, he didn’t know its flaws, and the opponent’s swift attacks were hard to accept.
The elderly man was alarmed seeing this.
He didn’t know how to resolve the impending crisis or form a protective shield against the coming attack.
But his shield was battered and could not withstand the powerful assault from the opponent’s weapon.
Soon, his shield shattered.
The elder felt a sharp pain in his chest, blood spewed forth, and he gradually crouched on the ground, looking bewildered and incredulous.
He couldn’t accept how easily he was defeated.
Lin Chen landed on the ground and approached the elderly man.
"Weren’t you just being so arrogant in front of me, thinking my defeat was difficult?"
Lin Chen’s words were dripping with sarcasm, which made the elderly man tremble slightly; feeling anger, yet unable to retort.
He had to admit this person was indeed frightening.
"I tell you, if I choose to destroy this world, no one can stop me. I only target the righteous sects," Lin Chen shouted at the Five Elements Patriarch.
The Five Elements Patriarch’s mouth revealed a bitter smile, surprised by the youth’s audacity.
"I’ve lost. If you want to kill me, go ahead,"
The Five Elements Patriarch had hoped to become the next Sage, but realized now it was impossible.
Lin Chen merely smiled after hearing those words, not intending to harm him.
"If you think me a bully, you’re mistaken. You may go; I won’t kill you," Lin Chen said calmly.
The Five Elements Patriarch looked incredulous, raising his head to see if the youth was joking.
"You mean it? You’re really not going to kill me?" The Patriarch asked curiously.
Thinking this youth would show no mercy after inheriting the demon’s legacy, yet surprisingly he spared him.
"Why should I kill you?" Lin Chen countered with a compelling question.
The elder didn’t answer.
"You’re only battling me in a dream; this isn’t a true defeat. I know your real self is still cultivating. We’ll meet on the battlefield,"
Lin Chen’s meaning was clear.
He wasn’t fighting the real person yet, just a soul projection.
A soul that can possess such power proves he is extraordinary, so Lin Chen hopes to duel with his true self later.
Lin Chen’s ultimate pursuit is invincibility, aiming to be a top-tier strongman unrivaled by anyone.
