Chapter 629 How Could He Be So Powerful?
Wan Meng activated the formation, suppressing the Sect Master from all directions.
Just now, the people of the Heavenly God Palace were in a chaotic battle with him, so she couldn't mobilize the formation to support them. Now that she was facing him alone, she could make better use of the formation's power.
Under the restraints of the many formations, the Sect Master fell into a temporary stagnation.
The giant sword in his hand froze in the air before he could swing it.
Wan Meng seized this opportunity and immediately used the power of the formation to push him away.
However, before she could do anything, the Sect Master had regained his ability to move.
Another sword swept across, and the powerful energy impact directly sent Wan Meng flying back ten thousand meters.
Although she wouldn't suffer too much damage as a divine weapon, Lin Qiye was exposed to an unguarded situation.
"It's too late!"
Wan Meng and the others' obstruction did not buy enough time for the Heavenly God Palace's reinforcements.
Everything happened in the span of a few breaths.
The crowd could only watch as the heavy sword crashed down on Lin Qiye's head.
"We're finished!"
"It's all over!"
Many people had already closed their eyes in despair.
Boom!
The world trembled under the sword.
It was different from when he had dealt with the people of the Heavenly God Palace and Wan Meng. The Sect Master seemed to have used all his strength.
The defenseless Lin Qiye was struck by the giant sword. Like a falling star, he instantly crashed into the ground.
"Master!"
"My Lord!"
Wan Meng, Butcher, and the others' expressions changed as they immediately rushed to where Lin Qiye fell.
However, there was one person faster than them. It was the Sect Master.
At this moment, the man was terrified. Just now, to ensure that he could kill with one strike, he had used his strongest power.
However, when he struck Lin Qiye's head with his giant sword, he felt as if he had hit a hard rock.
The recoil made his arm a little numb.
The Sect Master did not dare to let go of the opportunity to land a killing blow. He quickly went to where Lin Qiye had fallen to search for him.
However, when he used his divine sense to scan the crater Lin Qiye had created, he couldn't sense Lin Qiye's aura.
"Eh? How did he disappear?"
"Are you looking for me?"
Just as the man was wondering why Lin Qiye had disappeared, a cold voice suddenly rang in his ears.
He was shocked and didn't have time to think as he retreated in a hurry.
After flying back a few thousand meters, he turned around to check.
However, he was so frightened that he almost shivered.
He saw Lin Qiye's face less than ten centimeters away from him.
"You seemed to have a good time chopping me just now."
Lin Qiye pulled away first and looked at the man indifferently.
Cold sweat seeped out of the Sect Master's forehead. The giant sword in his hand had changed from a one-handed grip to a two-handed grip.
He did not respond to Lin Qiye but was feeling uneasy.
Before he came here, he had received news from the demon clan that Lin Qiye might have awakened a terrifying power.
When he first saw Lin Qiye had just entered the Celestial Realm, he thought the demons had overestimated him.
Now, it seemed he was too arrogant.
Lin Qiye stared at the man for a while. After confirming it repeatedly, he frowned and asked, "Did you take Luo Xiaobei's body?"
"My Lord, he has Xiaobei's aura on him. Xiaobei might have already been killed by him!"
At this time, Butcher also dragged his injured body over. He looked at the Sect Master with anger and heartache.
Seeing Lin Qiye not attack immediately, the Sect Master put away his giant sword and smiled.
"That little fellow? His talent is decent, and his heart is strong enough. Obtaining his body is not an easy task."
After confirming Luo Xiaobei had been killed by him and seeing his calm expression, Butcher immediately flew into a rage.
"Bastard!"
He clenched his fists tightly, but he was helpless.
The other man's strength had surpassed him by several levels.
Lin Qiye did not react much when he heard the Sect Master's words. Instead, he looked at him with a playful expression.
"It's indeed not an easy task. He should still be alive, right?"
As soon as his words fell, the Sect Master immediately felt something was wrong. He clenched his giant sword again and looked at Lin Qiye coldly.
"He's just an Embodier Realm brat. I can take care of him with a flip of my hand."
"If that's the case, does that mean he's still alive?" Lin Qiye laughed.
He could sense Luo Xiaobei's mental fluctuation from the man, but it was too weak. He could not confirm whether Luo Xiaobei was still alive.
Now that he saw the man's reaction, he knew he had guessed right.
He was the one who sent Luo Xiaobei to collect information for him. Now that he was in trouble, he could not ignore him.
In the distance, the people from the Heavenly God Palace who had rushed over saw the Sect Master, who had crushed them earlier, now facing Lin Qiye as if he was facing a great enemy.
All of them couldn't help but be excited.
"It seems like the Holy Infant Temple Master didn't lie to us. After he breaks through to the Celestial Realm, he might really be able to deal with the demon army!"
"Lord Holy Infant, quickly kill that guy. He worked with the demons. He will die a horrible death!"
Some cultivators at the Human Immortal Realm and the Earth Immortal Realm were clamoring for Lin Qiye to get rid of the evil.
Before Lin Qiye's breakthrough, they were still sneering at him. Now, their attitudes had changed drastically, and they addressed him as 'Lord.'
Lin Qiye ignored them and walked straight toward the Sect Master.
With every step he took, the ground under his feet seemed to shrink hundreds of times.
The distance of a few thousand meters was covered in a few steps.
"Instant Arrival!"
When Hall Master Qi saw this scene from a distance, he was both shocked and a little greedy.
Instant Arrival was the same as teleportation. It required an extremely deep comprehension of spatial laws.
However, the two had different domains. Even he, who had devoted himself to research for so many years, had only mastered the ability of teleportation.
When the Sect Master saw Lin Qiye use Instant Arrival, he seemed to have given up on his plan to escape.
Teleportation could be stopped by sealing off space, but Instant Arrival could not be interfered with by this method.
It was almost impossible to escape from an opponent who had mastered Instant Arrival.
"No wonder those demons treat you as a serious threat. You are indeed worthy of being the prophesied person."
The Sect Master clenched his giant sword tightly, his fighting spirit soaring.
"Cut the crap. You'll have to pay the price today for touching my men!"
Lin Qiye's right foot stepped in the air, and the surrounding space immediately rippled. As the distance between them expanded, the ripples grew larger.
Everyone was affected by the ripples, including those from the Heavenly God Palace.
With every ripple, everyone felt their power tremble as if it could leave their bodies at any moment.
The cultivation of the Sect Master was higher than everyone else. He only had to concentrate on guarding himself, and he could easily resist the ripples' influence.
"Hmph, come. Let me see how powerful the prophesied person is!"
