Chapter 70: A Terrifying Enemy, Elder Xuan Meets Lin Sheng
Inside the massive arena of Star Luo City.
The gale gradually subsided, but that suffocating, murderous intent lingered for a long time.
"..."
On the stage, the three Spirit Kings and four Spirit Ancestors who had been so aggressive moments ago were now slumped in pools of blood like broken dolls.
They had lost consciousness completely without even being able to let out a scream!
Without exception, their expressions were filled with extreme terror...
After Lin Sheng softly informed the referee, his pitch-black cloak whipped in the wind, obscuring most of his face.
In the deathly silence.
He slowly turned around, not even sparing a glance at the opponents he had instantly destroyed.
Until his figure disappeared into the shadows of the player tunnel.
Only then did the referee wake up as if from a dream, tremblingly raising his hand to announce the victory of the Snow Demon Sect.
"Whoosh—!"
In an instant, the entire audience erupted in cheers, the waves of sound almost overturning the heavens!
"That... did you see it clearly?"
Princess Vina felt that everything had happened too unrealistically, her tone carrying a deep sense of horror.
It had clearly only been a short while since they last met.
Yet she felt that Lin Sheng's strength had become even more terrifying, and he was already far beyond their Realm!!
Long Aotian took a deep breath.
The shock in his eyes was impossible to hide.
"No, that was the ultimate application of Lin Sheng's Pupillary Technique."
"Those three Spirit Kings probably didn't even count as dust in his eyes. Lin Sheng... has already reached a height we cannot imagine."
Long Aotian could vaguely imagine it.
In that one look Lin Sheng had directed at the opposition just now...
What exactly those seven people had experienced.
It was likely a true Hell!
...
On the other side of the VIP seats, the atmosphere of Shrek Academy was suppressed to the extreme.
Wang Yan's fingers trembled slightly.
He pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, his voice as heavy as water freezing into ice...
"Bei Bei, Yuhao, did you see that person's movements clearly?"
"The strength this person displayed is too frightening, along with those bizarre fourth and fifth Soul Rings. This person is likely the greatest enemy you will face."
Bei Bei remained silent.
Beside him, Huo Yuhao's expression was pale, and he subconsciously touched his forehead.
As the possessor of the Martial Soul Eyes Martial Soul.
In that instant just now, he had felt a terrifying Spiritual pressure coming from the opponent—it was an absolute suppression from a superior being over an inferior one.
"His Martial Soul seems to be eyes as well..."
Huo Yuhao muttered to himself, his voice carrying a tremor that even he hadn't noticed.
"So it's him, it's that person..."
Ma Xiaotao suddenly muttered to herself.
Her gaze remained fixed on the direction where Lin Sheng had disappeared.
"It's him..."
"That blood-colored light, there's no mistake!"
Ever since her Evil Fire was suppressed by Lin Sheng last time.
Although she had regained her clarity, a blood-colored brand that could never be erased was left deep in her heart.
Because...
There was a Pupillary Technique taboo left by Lin Sheng inside her body!
In a way.
Her life was now in Lin Sheng's hands.
"This kind of person is too terrifying."
She looked at the solemn Huo Yuhao and the others, warning them in a low voice: "Listen, that guy is a hundred times, a thousand times more terrifying than the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy!"
"He is a Shura who truly crawled out of Hell. Every one of his moves is born for killing."
Everyone gasped in unison.
Only Elder Xuan, the team leader, sat to the side, the iconic chicken leg in his hand having long since fallen to the ground.
A flash of extremely complex light passed through his cloudy eyes—there was guilt, there was fear.
But more than that, it was a near-absurd...
Resignation to the cycle of Karma.
...
Night fell.
The lights of Star Luo City were brilliant, but on the eaves of a remote mansion, darkness became the only background.
Lin Sheng sat here alone.
He had removed his disguised black robe and sat on the eaves without making a sound.
"..."
His grayish-white left eye looked particularly abrupt under the moonlight, while his remaining right eye.
Gazed calmly at the deep starry sky.
In the Sea of Consciousness, the Snow Empress, the Ice Empress, and the Tianmeng Iceworm seemed to sense Lin Sheng's fluctuating thoughts at this moment.
All remained quiet and did not speak.
Lin Sheng's vision gradually blurred, and the starry sky seemed to turn into the sky full of fire from that New Year's Eve.
He could smell the thick scent of blood in the air...
He could hear the wails of his uncle and aunt before they died; perhaps that was just his hallucination.
After all...
Life and death happen in an instant.
Where would there be any wails?
"Six years..."
His fingers resting on his knees trembled slightly, every knuckle seeming to be engraved with incantations of hatred.
In the eyes of the world, he was a peerless Genius.
He was a decisive Devil Head, but only he knew that in these six years, he had never truly had a peaceful night's sleep.
"Did I... actually survive six years ago?"
Lin Sheng talked to himself.
He was questioning himself.
His heart was in extreme pain, and he could no longer even recognize himself...
Just then.
A very slight sound of breaking air rang out from behind.
Lin Sheng did not turn his head.
He didn't even change his posture.
He just quietly watched the moon, his voice so flat that it made the air freeze.
"Since you're here, do you intend to atone for your crimes with your life?"
...
In the darkness, Elder Xuan's figure slowly emerged.
He looked even older, his originally hunched body casting a long, twisted shadow under the moonlight.
"..."
He didn't answer Lin Sheng directly but stared fixedly at the youth's back.
Looking at Lin Sheng's grayish-white left eye.
Looking at the youth who should have been high-spirited but was completely destroyed, a few raspy dry coughs came from Elder Xuan's throat.
"I... I am sorry for what happened to you six years ago..."
Elder Xuan's voice was desolate, carrying a sense of exhausted desperation.
"Boom—!"
A cold, blood-colored Pupillary Technique suddenly bloomed, almost severing Elder Xuan's throat.
Elder Xuan stood in place, not moving at all.
With Lin Sheng's current strength, he couldn't do it.
"Sorry?"
Lin Sheng let out a contemptuous sneer.
He slowly turned his head, and the Mangekyo in his right eye instantly opened, the dark red light appearing like a burning scar in the dark night.
"Elder Xuan, for those words to come out of your mouth."
"It is truly the height of absurdity!"
Lin Sheng stood up, the Pupillary Technique of his Mangekyo Sharingan fully blooming, and the surrounding space began to distort violently under that terrifying mental force.
It made a bone-chilling cracking sound.
Seeing Lin Sheng about to lose control, Elder Xuan silently shook his head.
"I was wrong about what happened back then."
"I will atone with my death, but before that... please allow me to use all my strength to protect the Douluo Continent which is about to fall into turmoil..."
Hearing this.
A mocking smile tugged at the corner of Lin Sheng's mouth.
"How noble. Have I become the villain now, Elder Xuan?"
