Chapter 92 Life and Death Moment

Chapter 92: A Moment Between Life and Death

At this critical moment, a figure suddenly materialized in front of Lin Xing! Not only did he block Lin Xing's path, but he also slashed down without a word!

Upon recognizing the newcomer, Lin Xing's heart sank. It was the Hall Master he had wounded earlier in a sneak attack. Lin Xing had completely forgotten about this man, never expecting him to appear at such a critical juncture!

The three men had Lin Xing surrounded, sealing off his high, middle, and low avenues of movement. There was nowhere for him to run!

Just as Lin Xing was about to be cut down where he stood, at this critical moment—

Lin Xing gritted his teeth and poured all his energy into circulating his Zhen Qi. Under his full exertion, the whirling core of his Zhen Qi spun wildly, its rotation accelerating violently. It frantically devoured the Zhen Qi from his meridians, and under its push, the Zhen Qi throughout his body rapidly flowed through his meridians, filling them to bursting.

The Zhen Qi emerging from the vortex surged into his meridians and even into every cell of his body, flooding his entire being. More and more Zhen Qi poured out from the vortex into his body, threatening to tear his body asunder. Finally—

Lin Xing could bear the tearing agony no longer, the pain that felt as if every cell was being ripped apart! The Zhen Qi in his body kept increasing, straining his body to its limits. "Ah!" Lin Xing let out a loud shout, and the pent-up Zhen Qi in his body found a violent release, suddenly rushing out from within him!

In an instant, a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering aura erupted from Lin Xing's body! Immediately after, a visible, cone-shaped vortex appeared around him. This vortex spun at an astonishing speed. If one's eyes were sharp enough, they could see the larger vortex was itself a maelstrom of countless smaller ones spinning continuously!

At the same time, the attacks from Akas and the other two had already reached Lin Xing! But—

The vortex on Lin Xing's body functioned as a protective barrier, the spinning vortex dissipating the force of every attack aimed at him.

All three were momentarily stunned by the sudden eruption of this heaven-shaking, earth-shattering aura from Lin Xing, causing their assaults to falter for a split second.

Although every cell in his body was a nexus of rending pain, so intense he nearly blacked out, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to stay conscious. Because if he fainted now, the consequence would be never waking up.

Now, Lin Xing's body was filled with this world-obliterating power, his eyes bloodshot. Capitalizing on their momentary lapse—

"Die!" Lin Xing roared, swinging his blade at the Hall Master! The blow, freighted with world-obliterating power, crashed down fiercely upon the Hall Master!

The old Hall Master had been stunned by the sudden eruption of this aura, but after all, he was a Saint Level expert. He regained his senses in an instant. Seeing Lin Xing's unstoppable strike coming at him, his face turned pale with fear, his mind went blank!

Faced with no escape, the instincts of a Saint-level Expert kicked in. Immediately, he mustered every last ounce of his strength, and under the threat of death, the old man's power actually increased once more.

"Break!" The old man placed all his hopes on this one strike of his blade. He didn't hope to repel Lin Xing, only to deflect some of the force!

But hope and reality were far apart! Lin Xing's heaven-shattering strike was not so easily deflected!

"Boom!" Lin Xing's blade slammed fiercely into the one swung by the old man. After only a slight pause, it continued its descent toward the old man!

A scream of agony! The old man was instantly cleaved in two by Lin Xing! Lin Xing staggered, standing on the ground, but at the same time—

The attacks from Akas and Bob had arrived. Lin Xing took a step forward, turned, and swung his blade horizontally toward the two of them.

"Hmph!" Akas and Bob grunted, one striking with a fist, the other hacking with a blade, smashing down toward Lin Xing.

"Boom! Boom!" All three were blasted backward by the impact. Akas and Bob exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock and horror! Earlier, Lin Xing couldn't withstand their combined attack, but now he was evenly matched with them, even holding a slight advantage.

But they also understood that Lin Xing's current state was temporary, merely a temporary surge in power. After some time, he should revert to normal. The two exchanged another look and simultaneously lunged forward! Their strategy now was to entangle Lin Xing. Once the time limit passed, Lin Xing would be powerless!

Lin Xing also knew this outcome. Moreover, he was currently enduring excruciating pain in his body, a dual torment of spirit and flesh that was far from ordinary. Therefore, he was desperate to flee the battlefield, to escape as soon as possible! Besides, he didn't know when his enhanced power would vanish. This was Lin Xing's greatest concern.

Seeing the two of them pouncing but not launching direct attacks, Lin Xing immediately understood their intention without needing to think!

"Trying to stall for time? If you won't come, I'll go to you!" Lin Xing roared angrily, raising his blade and charging forward. However, they kept their distance, staying just outside Lin Xing's attack range, merely surrounding him.

Seeing this, Lin Xing couldn't help but sneer coldly and stopped on the ground.

Akas and Bob saw Lin Xing standing still but dared not approach, fearing he might have some trick up his sleeve!

"The situation is getting worse and worse. I must leave soon. But when I try to leave, these two will entangle me. If one of them manages to hold me back, the other will immediately join in, and I still won't be able to escape. I need to think of a way..."

"It seems I have to use that move. There's no more time to waste." So, Lin Xing once again channeled his Zhen Qi with full force. Under his full exertion, the Zhen Qi within his body became even more frenzied, and the tearing sensation in his body intensified.

Instantly, Lin Xing condensed an Energy Blade over two zhang long. "Wind Break!" Lin Xing bellowed, swinging it toward Bob!

Bob's face was filled with gravity. He didn't dare to block it head-on and swiftly retreated.

"Boom!" Lin Xing's strike slammed fiercely into the ground, instantly carving out a huge crater and sending dust flying into the air! Now's the time! Lin Xing thought to himself.

"Not good, he's trying to escape! After him!" As soon as Bob finished speaking, he dashed forward. Akas also reacted and gave chase.

Enduring the intense pain, Lin Xing channeled his Zhen Qi with all his might. While repairing his injured body, he shot toward the south at his fastest speed.

"He got away!" Akas stopped, no longer pursuing. Lin Xing's figure had already disappeared from sight.

"Let's go back!" Bob said, turning around and leaving.

Lin Xing ran at his top speed, enduring the increasingly painful sensations. His head grew heavier, and the urge to lose consciousness grew stronger.

But Lin Xing gritted his teeth and persisted. This was an escape; the farther he ran, the better! And so, Lin Xing ran wildly throughout the entire night. They probably can't catch up now! As soon as his mind relaxed, Lin Xing collapsed to the ground.
