Sixty years of blacksmithing, a single hammer blow forging a celestial being.

Where did Mo Songyuan go?

It seems the poison in the mud was too strong, and he was unable to hold on any longer.

Tang Jiannan didn't think much of it.

After all, Mo Songyuan was his loyal underling.

He didn't believe Mo Songyuan would do anything to betray him.

Since we didn't get the Mysterious Snow Lotus, it's alright.

Let's take down Chen Fan and his group first!

So he stopped worrying about the Xuan Tian Snow Lotus.

Instead, he walked straight to Chen Fan and said calmly.

"Chen Fan! A battle between my Tongtian Sword Sect and your Crimson Fire Sect is inevitable! Let's settle this today!"

"All disciples of the Tongtian Sword Sect, heed my command!"

Behind him, a group of Tongtian Sword Sect disciples all had high fighting spirit on their faces.

He stared intently at the enemies of the Crimson Fire Sect ahead.

The two sides harbored deep-seated resentment.

So no one said they wanted to avoid war.

Instead, they couldn't wait to have a good, decisive battle.

This will cover the various grudges and conflicts of interest that have occurred between the two major sects over the past year.

I vented it all here.

Chen Fan also sneered,

"Since things have come to this, there's no need for further words! Tang Jiannan, I want to see just how much your strength has improved this year!"

With a command from the disciples leading both sides.

The two evenly matched sides immediately began a fierce battle at the edge of the central pool.

The two leading them were Tang Jiannan and Chen Fan.

They were all sword cultivators, and they clashed together, swords in hand, like playing ping-pong.

Because the two sides are evenly matched.

Therefore, they did not use magic right away.

Instead, they adopted the most primitive fighting style, engaging in close-quarters combat.

However, both sides used extremely advanced and unpredictable swordsmanship.

He has clearly been immersed in the art of swordsmanship for many years.

He was far beyond the reach of ordinary swordsmen.

As Li Ping'an had predicted, the two sides started fighting.

He was overjoyed.

Now that this battle has begun, it will definitely not stop until it is completely over.

"I, Li Ping'an, will be leaving now!"

He quietly retreated to the back of the crowd and ran wildly into the depths of the dense forest.

However, he hadn't run very far.

Suddenly, a blur appeared before my eyes, followed by a flash of pale red light.

Then Li Pingan felt a wave of dizziness.

He quickly took a few steps back.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw a female cultivator in pink standing in front of him.

Who else could this female cultivator be but Lin Yu?

Lin Yu defeated Li Ping'an with a single move and pressed his advantage relentlessly.

He lunged forward again, two silver needles now in his hand.

Taking advantage of Li Ping'an's staggering retreat, it shot forward.

It shot straight into Li Ping'an's arm.

The attack came suddenly, and Li Ping'an was in the middle of running away, so he didn't have time to react.

He only realized what was happening after being hit by the silver needle.

He felt a tingling and numb sensation spreading throughout his body from the silver needles.

Then Li Ping'an sensed that there seemed to be a hallucinogenic toxin on the silver needle.

They attempted to erode his brain and control his mind.

This is actually a mind-controlling hidden weapon!

Li Ping'an was secretly surprised.

He is a cultivator who possesses the supreme spiritual magic technique, the "Great Dream Guiding Divine Technique".

Why would they be afraid of the control provided by such a small silver needle?

Immediately, the "Great Dream Guiding Divine Technique" was activated, easily dissolving the mental toxins transmitted by the silver needles.

Seeing that Li Ping'an had been hit by his silver needles, Lin Yu, who was standing to the side, was extremely smug.

Anyone struck by his silver needles would have absolutely no chance of escaping.

She immediately moved over with light, graceful steps.

"Where is your Xuan Tian Snow Lotus? Hand it over to me now! Otherwise, you've already been poisoned by my spiritual toxin. Once I activate it, I can make you wish you were dead!"

As he spoke, Lin Yu activated his mental toxin to intimidate Li Ping'an.

Logically speaking, Li Ping'an, who has been poisoned by mental toxins, should be able to see all sorts of terrifying scenes at this moment.

The victim must have felt an immense sense of fear, as if their heart had fallen into an abyss from which they could not escape—a truly horrific torture.

However, Li Ping'an was completely unharmed, standing calmly in place, looking at Lin Yu indifferently.

"How could that be?"

Lin Yu was taken aback.

One's own mental poison has always been effective.

Why is this not working?

He prepared to unleash his power once again.

However, Li Ping'an had already unleashed the Heaven-Forging Battle Fist.

The punch landed on Lin Yu's chest.

Lin Yu was sent flying by a punch, crashing into a tree and spitting out blood.

Li Pingan snorted coldly.

Lin Yu is indeed no good.

Taking advantage of the great battle between the Tongtian Sword Sect and the Chihuo Sect.

They actually came to find me secretly and ambushed me.

Clearly, they wanted to obtain the Mysterious Snow Lotus.

This guy is truly far too insidious and vicious.

Furthermore, the mental poison technique he just used was clearly not a spell possessed by the Tongtian Sword Sect.

What is this guy's background?

For a moment, Li Ping'an couldn't help but feel a little curious about Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was suddenly punched hard by Li Ping'an.

I felt an excruciating pain in my chest.

At the same time, he looked at Li Ping'an, his eyes filled with shock.

How could this old guy...?

Li Pingan slowly took off his protective suit, revealing his true face.

Lin Yu was slightly taken aback when she saw Li Ping'an's face.

It was actually an old man? Not Mo Songyuan?

What's going on?

However, Li Ping'an had already walked straight up to Lin Yu.

The Great Dream Divine Guiding Technique was used to directly control Lin Yu's mind.

This time, it's about directly controlling Lin Yu's mind, rather than creating any illusions in her eyes.

This is a new ability that Li Ping'an discovered after advancing to the second level of the "Great Dream Divine Guidance Technique" during this period.

It can directly control the other person's mind and soul, captivating their spirit.

It's even more powerful than the first level, which controls other people's vision.

Tell me, which sect do you belong to?

Li Pingan spoke slowly.

Lin Yu was indeed controlled by the "Great Dream Divine Guiding Technique," and said blankly.

"I am a disciple of the Tongtian Sword Sect."

Li Ping'an frowned and said.

"I'm asking which sect you belonged to before! What was your purpose in cultivating at the Tongtian Sword Sect?"

Lin Yu's body trembled slightly.

It seemed that the question Li Ping'an asked was one that was unanswerable deep in his heart.

However, under the powerful operation of the "Great Dream Divine Guiding Technique," Lin Yu finally spoke with trembling hands.

"I am a disciple of the Yin Ghost Sect. Years ago, I stole a magical artifact from an elder of the Yin Ghost Sect and was hunted down, which is why I fled to the Tongtian Sword Sect."

They're actually disciples of the Yin Ghost Sect!

Upon hearing this, Li Ping'an immediately frowned.

The Yin Ghost Sect is a notorious demonic sect in this region.

The disciples inside were all utterly wicked.

The spells they cast were all heretical and evil, the spells of these wicked cultivators who harmed people's lives.

No wonder Lin Yu acts so ruthlessly and viciously.

It turns out it originated from the Yin Ghost Sect.

"What did you steal from that elder? Why are you being hunted down like this?"

Li Pingan asked him again, this was the question he was concerned about.

Lin Yu said blankly,

"I stole Elder Jiyin's Soul-Suppressing Bell. It was a treasure he spent a long time refining. I heard it was brought out from some desolate ruins in its early years and is extremely powerful, which is why I stole his magic weapon."
