Guang Yu'er, severely weakened by the Nine-Striped Bodhi Fruit poison, deploys cold defenses from the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill against the Blood Banner Ten Thousand Demon Array of twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect. Desperate to protect him, she opens a Secret Realm Gate and urges Lin Xuankong to enter while throwing others inside, but he refuses amid Sima Ling's mocking threats. Lin Xuankong calmly assesses the foes, expresses disappointment at the lack of stronger enemies, and shocks everyone by remaining unaffected by the poison that impairs even Strongest Immortal Lords.

Lin Xuankong flashed a smile toward Guang Yu'er,

"Even if it's tough to bear, you have to hold on!

Didn't you catch what those traitors from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect said about wrecking half of your Immortal Body!

I could never stand to harm my Yu'er's Immortal Body—how could I allow these scum to damage it!"

His remarks left Guang Yu'er feeling both faintly amused and exasperated. From a beloved like Lin Xuankong, they brought genuine solace, but amid this dire crisis, they came off as a tad misplaced!

Once Lin Xuankong wrapped up his words, he gently lifted his right hand,

In an instant,

the Golden Patterned Ghost Frog Pouch on his waist parted its jaws on its own, beams of light burst forth from within, drifting around him.

Before a tenth of a breath had passed, thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts hovered nearby, each radiating a dazzling glow, while a sheer light barrier abruptly spread out, encasing Lin Xuankong, Guang Yu'er, and the twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect.

With that, Lin Xuankong gave a faint nod and declared, "Hmm, now no one can flee; I can take my time handling these betrayers of the Immortal Realm Human Race! These fools didn't just turn against the Immortal Realm Human Race—they interrupted our peaceful moments together; they absolutely deserve to die! Yu'er, hold tight for a bit; after I finish off these pests, we'll head to the pavilion and garden to admire flowers and chat!"

Witnessing the thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts materialize,

Witnessing Lin Xuankong assemble a Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array using Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts,

Witnessing his calm and carefree look,

Guang Yu'er alongside the twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect all betrayed profound shock.

"Impossible! You, just a Fourth Grade Realm Earth Immortal, not only resisted the Nine-Striped Bodhi Fruit's shell effects but can also channel your Immortal Yuan and command so many Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts?" Sima Ling, the Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, stared at the transparent array barrier trapping him and his twenty-seven comrades, and at the thirty-six brilliant Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifact array nodes, his face twisted like a mortal glimpsing a phantom, overflowing with incredulity.

The remaining twenty-seven Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect wore faces of utter astonishment too, as they watched Lin Xuankong effortlessly manipulate thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts like it was the world's greatest miracle!

What they didn't realize,

Lin Xuankong had, 'a hundred years ago', long since elevated his Divine Soul to the Supreme Divine Soul Realm in the Immortal Realm with ease after swallowing a Celestial Demon Blood Fruit!

The Sect Master of the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect's Divine Soul withstood the Nine-Striped Bodhi Fruit's shell effects, so Lin Xuankong bearing the Supreme Divine Soul Realm in the Immortal Realm—how could he possibly suffer from it!

Naturally,

The vital factor was,

At that instant, Lin Xuankong's Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array had fully enclosed all twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect inside it!

An formation crafted from Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts—how unbreakable it was; even back then, the Nine-Layered Array built with First-Grade Immortal Artifacts by the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect held firm for ages against the Demon Buddha called forth by eighty Ninth-Grade Demon Artifact Level Demon Generals, much less one made from Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts!

An array this mighty was nearly impossible for the twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect to shatter—sure, given years of relentless strikes, they might manage a tiny crack!

In this moment,

As they saw Lin Xuankong freely harnessing Immortal Yuan to ignite thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts and deploy the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array, the aghast twenty-eight Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect all revealed flickers of desperation.

Sima Ling, the Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, bellowed, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a battle where life and death hang in the balance, there's no need to fear failing to shatter the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array laid down by Lin Xuankong. We simply must join forces to target the chill of Guang Yu'er's Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill. Once her chill barrier crumbles, we'll naturally reach Lin Xuankong, and the formation powered by thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts will dissolve without effort!

Furthermore, if we unite this time to gravely wound Guang Yu'er and seize Lin Xuankong, those thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts will fall into our hands for nothing! Hahaha!"

Upon hearing their Second Elder's words,

The twenty-seven Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, who had been stunned before, now brimmed with excitement. They channeled extra power into the Blood Banner Ten Thousand Demons Array, and while unleashing their strikes, they stared at Lin Xuankong encircled by those thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts. Greed burned fiercely in their gazes, as though they yearned madly to pierce the chill defense of the newly proclaimed Strongest Immortal Lord Guang Yu'er and split those thirty-six Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts among themselves!

In that instant,

Guang Yu'er, who relied on the chill from her Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill for defense, faced mounting pressure, with her Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill's chill depleting at a pace far quicker than before.

A bitter taste filled Guang Yu'er's mouth as she struggled to maintain her Divine Soul's awareness, exerting every ounce of effort to feebly direct that strand of chill.

However, she understood all too well,

In her present condition, that strand of chill wouldn't hold out much longer. Regrettably, she could summon far too little chill from the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill right now, rendering any offensive move impossible!

Witnessing this scene,

Sima Ling, Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, burst into triumphant laughter.

Though astonishment still gripped his heart, he wondered why Lin Xuankong—a seeming Fourth Grade Realm Earth Immortal—stayed so mentally sharp even now. He was even more baffled by how Lin Xuankong could effortlessly summon vast Immortal Yuan to command numerous Immortal Artifacts and erect such a Yuan-draining Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array. Yet, amid the intense shock, awe, and strain felt by his fellow disciples, he recognized that as their leader, he must rally their spirits!

Otherwise, should his comrades falter at this pivotal juncture and fail to breach Guang Yu'er's chill defense, nothing but doom awaited Sima Ling and the twenty-seven Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect!

Right then,

A wave of relief washed over Sima Ling, Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, as he considered Lin Xuankong's arrogance in trapping him and his twenty-seven comrades inside the Nine-Layered Thousand Cranes Grand Array's light barrier. Had Lin Xuankong instead sealed them outside that barrier, the mission would have collapsed in utter failure!

Bearing these questions and a touch of luck,

Sima Ling, Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, fixed his gaze on Lin Xuankong, musing inwardly: Lin Xuankong truly merits the pursuit of the Holy Sect's Heir Gang Bone. Beyond his stunning Artifact Refining Talent and Array Formation Talent, he appears to harbor extraordinary gifts as well—though what other aces might he hold?

May this mission... proceed flawlessly!

The fate of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, the lives of those twenty-seven Ninth-Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals, and his own existence all rode on this venture!

In that instant,

Sima Ling, Second Elder of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Sect, abruptly stiffened, his eyes narrowing doubtfully at Lin Xuankong's right hand.

For he had just spotted Lin Xuankong—this prodigy brimming with fearsome talents—lifting his right hand, where a thread of pristine white, snow-resembling aura flickered at the tip of his index finger. That aura matched perfectly the chill from Guang Yu'er's Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill, albeit far feebler in might!

How on earth could Lin Xuankong wield the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill?

He held no status as a Tributor of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, nor as a True Disciple of Immortal Lord Luoshui Yaan Mingyu? Whence came his grasp of the Guangqing Cold Extreme Skill's legacy?
