I rely on myself

Chapter 266 The end?

The smoke gradually dissipated, and the originally towering mountain peak became several sections shorter. A large amount of the mountain had been directly crushed into a lot of gravel and dust, which flew away to no one knew where as the shock wave spread.

The huge impact created a large hole on the top of the mountain, and the surrounding rocks seemed shaky and could collapse at any time.

A huge crimson knight was half-crouching in the middle of the pit, holding a long sword upside down in both hands. A large part of the red sword was inserted into the ground. It was Testarossa.

As for Sect Leader Luo Hao himself, he was in the shadow of Testarossa's huge body. The originally beautiful, fluttering white Hanfu was now severely damaged. Although it was not so bad that it could not cover the body, it still had many damages. Although it was covered with a lot of dust, the original white skin could still be seen.

At this time, Luo Hao was sitting on the ground in a sideways posture. Because his clothes were torn and his beautiful face like a flower was covered with a lot of dust, he looked a little embarrassed, like a weak woman.

This is probably a scene that many people cannot imagine nowadays, Lin Yuan, who was sitting in the cockpit of Testarossa, couldn't help but think as he watched this scene.

Luo Hao glanced at the Xihe Sword, which was several meters away from him and most of the sword was inserted into the ground, and his expression was somewhat displeased.

"Why did you move the blade at the last minute? Are you underestimating me?"

When saying this, Luo Hao's tone was icy cold, which made people who heard it feel a chill, but Lin Yuan just gave a helpless bitter smile.

During the previous confrontation, both sides gave their all.

Lin Yuan controlled Testarossa to descend from the sky holding the Xihe Sword. The acceleration of gravity plus its own propulsion caused the descent speed to increase and had already exceeded the speed of sound. Coupled with the blade of the Xihe Sword with thousands of degrees of light and heat gathered, this strike was enough to kill any disobedient god. It could be called a true fatal blow.

On the other hand, Sect Leader Luo Hao, by chanting the powerful <Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl> for a long time, was able to overcome the devilish wind of a Category 12 typhoon. He mixed it with the golden particles released by another powerful <Vajra Divine Art> and struck out with one palm. This blow was strong enough to penetrate the ground and out of the atmosphere.

The full strength of the two was like a tit-for-tat confrontation, neither giving in to the other, and they collided fiercely, with most of the power canceling each other out. However, even so, the aftermath made Lushan become the horrible state it is today.

After the two sides were in a stalemate for a while, the blade of the Xihe Sword finally pierced into the golden palm print, as if deciding the winner. Although the blade was a little slow, it continued to pierce into the palm print and finally pierced through it completely, but this did not mean Lin Yuan's complete victory.

Although the golden palm print was pierced, it was not completely broken. After a confrontation, most of the power in the golden palm print had been consumed, but it still had considerable power. Only the center was pierced by the Xihe Sword, and the other parts went upstream and hit Testarossa directly.

Although the power was considerable, Testarossa's defense was enough to withstand it. Of course, the descent of the sword was hindered for less than a second.

Because Sect Leader Luo Hao used two powers at the same time and both were at maximum power, his spell power was consumed too much in a short period of time and he was unable to dodge. Just as Luo Hao was thinking about how to minimize the damage, the sword blade suddenly moved away and finally landed a few meters away.

The impact and blast from the falling blade blew her temporarily immobile body away, but that was not the point. Unlike most people who felt relieved because they were alive, Luo Hao only felt a burst of pain in her heart because her self-esteem would not allow it.

The fight between the two sides relied on their own abilities. Lin Yuan defeated himself relying on his own abilities. Luo Hao would not deny this, nor would he hate him. He would just feel unwilling to accept it and work harder to practice, waiting for the opportunity to win back next time.

But being let off like this by the other party as if it were alms was undoubtedly a shame for Luo Hao, who thought highly of himself, so he asked this question in a cold tone.

Lin Yuan did not feel much of an exception when watching this scene. After all, before making this move, Lin Yuan, who was familiar with the character of Sect Leader Luo Hao, had already anticipated this.

Lin Yuan did not answer immediately, but manipulated Testarossa to pull the sword out of the ground, then put it back into the armory, stood up again, and took a few steps back to create some distance.

Testarossa half-knelt down again, and the gem on her chest flashed a light, and a beam of light shot out from it and fell on the ground, revealing Lin Yuan's figure.

Luo Hao, the leader of the sect, did not say anything when he saw this series of actions. He just stared at Lin Yuan with a look in his eyes that said, "No matter what, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, then let's fight to the death!"

Feeling the other person's gaze, the bitter smile on Lin Yuan's face became even more intense. Although he had expected it, it shouldn't be to this extent.

Even though he complained, Lin Yuan didn't want to make things too awkward with Luo Hao, so he explained, "I know it's hard for you to accept this result, but I can't just stab him. You are our king after all."

"...So, in the end, you are still looking down on me? I, Luo Hao, don't even take such a predicament seriously!"

It was obvious that Lin Yuan's words were not accepted. Instead, it was Leader Luo Hao who made some harsh remarks, but Lin Yuan believed them very much.

Indeed, with that strike just now, perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, the outcome of this battle has been decided, but anyone who is familiar with the existence of the God Slayer will not think so. Perhaps this strike could indeed injure or even seriously damage Leader Luo Hao, but it was not enough to kill him.

Although there was no basis for it, and he gave up on his own initiative, Lin Yuan just had this idea. He even had a premonition that the situation would become worse if he severely injured the opponent.

Of course, this unfounded reason was certainly not enough to convince the other party, so Lin Yuan did not say this, but instead stated another reason in his mind.

"That's not the case. I do believe that this predicament is nothing to you, but this battle was originally started by you to test me. Strictly speaking, it's just a competition. You shouldn't kill me. And you, Master, have shown mercy to me many times in this battle, allowing me to perform better. So no matter what, I can't let that sword hit me, right?"
