The stolen magic is a bit magical

Zhen Shen laughed loudly: "You jumped off the cliff just to escape, but do you really think you can escape?"

"No! I'm jumping off the cliff only because I planned to kill you here!"

Zhen Shen's eyes suddenly narrowed, and boundless killing intent enveloped him. The waves rising in the pool seemed to be completely suppressed at this moment.

Lin Xiaosu looked at him. In his eyes, there was no tension in the face of crisis, no bloodshed on the battlefield, but a leisurely ease like spring rain.

"Die!" Zhen Shen suddenly raised his hand.

Under the all-seeing eye of Heaven, his hand seemed to tremble a thousand times in an instant, and every drop of water in the entire pool seemed to be caught in a strange vibration.

shock!

That's his killer move!
His tremor tore everything apart!
Lin Xiaosu suddenly raised her hand...

The sword in his hand traced an exquisitely beautiful arc...

Yes, wonderful!
It seems as if, in the spring rain, the umbrella swirls, accompanied by a graceful, free, and agile rain sprite.

Once the solitary line is formed, countless water droplets rise leisurely.

The tremors of the gods tore everything apart, yet they could not tear apart the misty spring rain.

In an instant, the deep, dark bottom of the pool transformed into the misty, rainy landscape of Jiangnan.

A misty spring rain covered the Zhenshen.

A beautiful wave bloomed between Zhen Shen's brows.

Then came the second one, the third one...

In the blink of an eye, eighty-one flowers bloomed all over Zhen Shen's body!
Zhen Shen's eyes widened suddenly, filled with disbelief.

"This move is called 'Tears of Parting'!" Lin Xiaosu floated up gracefully: "With my cultivation level, I am actually not strong enough to execute it. I can only use water to perform it. This is the real reason why I jumped off the cliff!"

puff!
A spurt of blood shot out from between Zhen Shen's brows.

The blood was silvery-white.

Puff puff!
Dozens of arrows of blood shot out simultaneously.

From the inside out!

Zhen Shen looked up at the sky, as if he wanted to see the night sky, but all he could see was the misty rain of Jiangnan...

tom!
He collapsed!

Lin Xiaosu's general's uniform was dry, but a layer of cold sweat still seeped out from his back.

My back was soaked with cold sweat; I was terrified!
This lingering fear stemmed from his dread of facing this extraordinary move. This move, "Tears of Parting," was truly a marvel of swordsmanship. At first glance, it appeared soft and delicate, seemingly incredibly beautiful and fragile.

However, this is all an illusion of Kendo.

The tears of parting are so domineering that they are outrageous!
Sword intent is like spring rain, capable of transforming the blood within the opponent's body into an extension of sword intent.

What killed this invincible god was actually the blood within his body.

Blood transformed into a sword, killing him from the inside out!

Who can withstand this swordsmanship?
It seems that nothing can stop a living organism!

The starting point for unleashing this sword is peering into the heavens!
He is still far from seeing the heavens, but one day, he will be able to break through...

Once he breaks through the Heavenly Realm, who in this vast world can withstand a single sword strike from him?
Let's put aside the distant prospects for now.

He needs to implement the next step of the strategy.

Today, when facing Zhen Shen face to face, Zhen Shen was reluctant to give up the opportunity to uncover his secrets, and he was also reluctant to give up the opportunity to uncover the other's secrets.

What Zhen Shen gains is not important.

When a person is dead, nothing else matters.

Importantly, Lin Xiaosu's suspicions were confirmed...

That is: the temple still has a trump card!

He was at odds with Utopia, and sooner or later he would have to face Utopia's trump card. Rather than being caught off guard, he decided to force them to reveal their trump card on this territory, which was not part of the Great Xia Kingdom's borders. Why? Because for an organization like Utopia, revealing their trump card meant certain death! If they revealed it in Great Xia, it would be Great Xia people who died; if they revealed it in Durta, it wouldn't be Great Xia people who died!
Forcing the opponent to reveal their true intentions was the key reason why Lin Xiaosu risked staying in Durta and undertaking this earth-shattering feat.

Zhen Shen is one of their trump cards.

But it's definitely not the only one!

What other cards do you have?
It will be forced out very soon.

Because once Lin Xiaosu's scheme is launched, it will inevitably be continuous and interconnected...

His face changed again!

He became General Gebbi.

He was already wearing a general's uniform, and with a wave of his hand, he pulled out a general's hat from the secret realm space and put it on!
Lin Xiaosu grabbed Zhen Shen's corpse with one hand, and with a few leaps, jumped up from below the cliff.

General Ge Bie was the top fighter in the Fierce Tiger Army.

Although he hadn't shown it much before, it was still widely known. As he climbed over the cliff, a group of generals stared at his hand, their eyes widening in surprise.

The person he was carrying had unusual skin and silver-black hair. Could it be...?

"This man is Zhen Shen, the one who has undergone Nirvana in the Temple. He attempted to assassinate me, but I killed him instead!" Lin Xiaosu raised his hand, and Zhen Shen's corpse was thrown in front of the generals.

All the generals were greatly shocked...

"Even those who have attained Nirvana can be slain; General, you are truly mighty..."

"A god! The general is truly a god!"

"Those who have attained Nirvana can all be killed; the Fierce Tiger Army is invincible!"

In an instant, the excited shouts shook the heavens and the earth.

Only one general, his face pale, stared blankly at the corpse of Zhen Shen, his lips trembling.

He was none other than Colonel Rayson, the third leader of the Fierce Tiger Army.

Lin Xiaosu's gaze fell on his face: "Leisen, you've been exposed!"

Leisen was visibly shaken and abruptly looked up.

The entire assembly fell silent.

Lin Xiaosu said, "Zhen Shen has already confessed that his purpose in coming here was to kill this general and Colonel Torre. Torre has already been killed by him. If he also succeeds in killing this general, you, Leisen, will be the leader of the Tiger Army. You will lead the entire Tiger Army to become the dogs of the temple!"

Rayson's mind went completely blank. This was their secret plan.

The plan will succeed as long as the general dies.

However, the general did not die; instead, he killed Zhen Shen, and the plan had failed.

Even more terrifying, Zhen Shen actually confessed...

Finished!

It's all over!

With a flick of her foot, Lin Xiaosu severed both of Lei Sen's legs, sending him flying far away.

Lin Xiaosu's icy command rang in his ears: "Drag him away and interrogate him tonight. Get all the people on his network out of the picture!"

An overnight interrogation.

The atmosphere in the army was tense and volatile.

Unable to withstand the various tortures inflicted by the Tiger Army, Leisen confessed.

Besides him, there were eleven other officers of the rank of major or above who had been infiltrated by the temple!
When the news reached the General's Mansion, Lin Xiaosu slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "Execute them all!"

More than ten gunshots rang out, signifying the collapse of the temple's layout within the Tiger Army.

The generals' blood was pumping again...

The temple dared to lay such a large net within the Tiger Army; their wolfish ambitions deserve to be eradicated!
The temple has already suffered a devastating blow, and everyone is like a wounded and trapped beast. If we don't eliminate the threat completely, there will surely be future troubles...

All of this led to a consensus among the generals: strike while the iron is hot and completely destroy the temple!

Following the morale of the army, Lin Xiaosu made the decision: "Tomorrow morning, the army will march out and annihilate the Temple!"

The generals left the residence to prepare.

Lin Xiaosu stepped over the shards of glass and arrived at the top of the cliff.

Gazing at the distant site of the temple, his heart was filled with turmoil.

When facing an enemy, the worst thing you can do is be self-centered.

We need to put ourselves in the enemy's shoes when dealing with them.

Standing at the location of the temple, the Tiger Army launched a missile attack, cleansing their temple and killing countless members of their tribe. What are their possible countermeasures?
The preferred solution was naturally to eliminate General Ge Bie and take control of the Fierce Tiger Banner.

This plan is now obsolete.

The Tiger Army completed a major purge of the temple's infiltration.

It is impossible for the temple to take control of the Tiger Banner in the short term.

The tiger didn't give them another chance to infiltrate, launching a decisive attack...

under these circumstances.

Whatever cards the temple has up its sleeve, it must reveal them!
I'd like to see what your trump card is!
This is his goal!

The terrible news arrived in the temple late at night.

The invincible and ever-victorious god of war, Zhen Shen, is dead!

Rayson, the key figure in the temple's deployment within the Tiger Army, is dead!

Eleven officers of the rank of major or above that Leisen had already recruited were all wiped out!

Thirteen corpses were strapped to military vehicles. The army was assembled, and the final battle to annihilate the temple would begin the following morning.

Upon receiving this message.

The seven elders were all stunned...

The Left Envoy, whose plans were always flawless, suddenly opened his eyes wide, then slowly closed them...

The death of Zhen Shen signifies the complete failure of the decapitation operation.

The deaths of Raison and his eleven men signify the complete failure of the temple's infiltration strategy against the Tigers.

Thirteen corpses were strapped to a military vehicle, representing the Tiger Army's greatest insult to the temple.

The next day, the army pressed in, and the temple was on the verge of life or death in no time!
"Left Envoy!" The Grand Elder let out a long sigh: "What should we do next?"

Although the strategy of Zhen Shen's deployment was driven by the Left Envoy, and Zhen Shen's failure and heavy losses were theoretically a mistake on the part of the Left Envoy, no one mentioned his "mistake" because even now, everyone still feels that his plan itself was not wrong. Who could have imagined that Zhen Shen would also die?

As long as it's not a failure of the strategy itself, then it's not a dereliction of duty on the part of the Left Envoy.

The Left Envoy slowly opened his eyes: "The Grand Elder already has the answer, why ask me?"

"This matter is of great importance, and I... I would like to solicit everyone's opinions!" the Grand Elder said.

The Left Envoy sighed softly: "Given the current situation, there is no other choice. Even though the time is not yet ripe, we have no choice but to reveal our trump cards... Please, Elder Di!"

The Grand Elder slowly raised his gaze: "Please, Elder Di!"

An elder on the left gently raised a finger and pointed it at the button in the basement.

An ancient bronze door slowly opened in front of us...

A flute melody came from the deepest part of the cave; it was "Prelude to Death."

The music emerged from the cave, passed through the basement, and stepped into the starlight...

A mournful melody, an empty flute, travels over temple ruins and across a desolate valley.

It was as if a farewell song was played for the unfortunate and tragically deceased Li Tian people.

It was like the opening song that heralded the beginning of death on this land.

The next morning...

Hundreds of military vehicles from the Tiger Army set off, crossed the defense line, traversed canyons, crossed plains, and stormed into the location of the temple.

The area ahead was empty, seemingly deserted.

But suddenly, the sound of a flute came from inside!
On the lead military vehicle, Colonel Grenaf, who was leading the group, raised his eyes and stared at a figure emerging from the morning mist. He was immediately startled.

Is this a human or a ghost?
An old man, thin as a rake, holding a short flute, walked on the grass as if carried by the wind.

"Fire!" (End of Chapter)
