Divine Sects

The other Sacred Moon School Elder's pupils constricted to pin needle sizes. Their hands moved at lightning speeds as endless Ice radiance essence flowed from their pupils.

Brilliantly gorgeous and terrifyingly cold Ice radiance could freeze across the entire land illuminated from the Elders.

"Moon Convergence!"

Their Ice radiance beautifully danced out of their bodies. As if there was some kind of soul-pulling force that can lull any cultivators' souls into an endless illusion.

Their beautiful Ice radiance streams converged at the top of their heads, forming far larger Crystal Moons.

The Sacred Mansion members were stilted in their very spots, their eyes slightly widening in genuine surprise. These Crystal Moons began to expand over a radius of 50 feet wide and large!

Every pulsating Crystal Moon could freeze the clouds and the wind. Just entering its range would cause frost to form on a cultivator's body.

But, just as the Moon Convergence neared completion, a far intenser blinding flash of Ice radiance shrouded the world.

Lights of icy blue overshadow the Moon Convergence, dimming it as if it was just a night light.

The tremendous rise of power from the Sacred Moon School Elders had instantly stopped!

None of the Elders were even given the chance to react. Lin Xiang flapped his Fire Wings and soared through the skies, tearing away the Moon Convergence atmosphere and appearing right before the three Elders!

Lin Xiang waved his Fire radiance palm. His simple motion couldn't be tracked by their enhanced Heavenly eyes.

A large stream of Fire radiance essence whistled from the simple palm motion. Unable to react, the stream of Fire radiance easily engulfed every Crystal Moon.

Instead of chaotic energy collisions, or glass shattering, the Fire radiance stream vaporized every Crystal Moon to nothingness!

The particles within the Fire radiance couldn't be stopped. Invincible, without any equal, refined by Absolute Yin-Yang bloodline energy!

The mere combined powers of 8th to 9th layer Heavenly Origin cultivators couldn't possibly stand up to it. Thus, the Crystal Moons were decimated into complete smithereens.

The Sacred Moon School Elders groaned on instinct. Blood leaked from their noses from not only failing to complete their Martial Skills but also having it effortlessly shattered without being able to cancel their soul links.

Lin Xiang didn't give them a chance to recover. Beautiful Ice radiance shrouded his left palm while dazzling Fire radiance engulfed his right palm.

Both radiance palms slammed down at a monstrous intensity!

'Chi!'

Both Elder's heads brutally exploded open! Lin Xiang's fire-ice radiance palms tore through their protective heavenly energy and bodily defenses like fragile glass.

The overwhelming force of the fire-ice radiance had instantly vaporized the Elder's blood, skull bones, and brain matter into mere ashes.

Their headless corpses fell out of the skies, smashing into the ground like sacks of meat.

At the same time, Lin Xiang moved his Fire radiance palm at blinding speed. There wasn't any suspense. He brutally clamped down on the last remaining Elder's neck with a deadly iron grip.

Fire essence particles tore through the Elder's internal body, burning away his organs and completely suppressing his Heavenly Sea.

Lin Xiang was now in complete control of the Elder's life. Like a rag doll, the Elder couldn't resist. His eyes could only stare completely horrified at this mysterious person.

What's worse was when the Elder could just faintly feel this mysterious man's aura. 'He-he's only in the Profound realm?!?'

Lin Xiang cared little about the Elder's horror. He slowly lowered himself to the ground while a strange silence engulfed the land.

At this time, the Sacred Mansion Emperor Elders and Yin Xinya couldn't utter a single noise.

Just what could they possibly say?

Elders who nearly killed them all were dealt with by this mysterious person as if they were common trash!

What's more befuddling was the fact that this man's aura was only in the Profound realm!

'Could-could he be a secret top genius from the Divine Tier sects? But, even then, there's no genius on the Young Overload Plaque with exaggerated prowess like this! It feels he could even face a Heavenly Ruler expert!'

Yin Xinya felt a tremor shock through her body. Her eyes couldn't leave off Lin Xiang for even a second.

There was this mysterious charm about him. Despite his ordinary looks, that unfathomable aura radiating from his natural presence made it hard for anyone to ignore him.

At this time, Lin Xiang recalled his powers, gaining back his simply mysterious presence. He smiled at the horrified Sacred Moon School Elder, asking him, "This is very curious. I've just met another one of you a little bit before here. The Sacred Moon School is becoming very daring nowadays, eh? Just what kind of gall do you have to launch a siege on the Sacred Emperor Mansion?"

Hearing his words certainly made Yin Xinya and her Elders perk up. They trailed closer but kept a reasonable distance away. Their wariness against Lin Xiang was still high, even though it seems he was helping them.

After all, this mysterious person can make a complete turnaround and end up against them. None of them would know what to do if such a situation happen if their guard were let down.

At this time, the Scared Moon School Elder struggled to speak. His lips quivered, and blood pooled from his mouth. "I-I"

Abruptly, before the Elder could finish, a cold gleam sparked from Lin Xiang's eyes. His Soul Sense keenly detected a slow burning of soul essence!

There was no point in keeping him alive any longer. Lin Xiang promptly clenched his palm. A sickening crunch pounded the ears of the Sacred Mansion Emperor members.

As if he was some sort of waste, Lin Xiang completely crushed the Sacred Moon School Elder's neck.

The Elder's body violently jerked. His eyes soon turned vacant, horror still filling his face.

'Mn. It seems I really need to find a soul-related art to suppress weakened souls. Can't have every single one of my enemies try to pull one last ditch effort.' As Lin Xiang mused to himself, he casually chucked away the Elder's corpse.

His palm then clenched down again, unleashing a powerful suction force on all four of the Elders' corpses. The suction force specifically pulled out their spatial rings.

When the spatial rings entered Lin Xiang's palm, he then flicked out four fireballs toward the Elders' corpses, incinerating each of them into ashes.

The dust had finally settled over this battle.

Lin Xiang casually turned over to his observers. He faintly smiled and tossed over two spatial rings toward Yin Xinya. "For you. I'm not so selfish as to take everything for myself."

Still in a slight daze, Yin Xinya reacted on instinct when catching the spatial rings. She took a moment to sigh, calming her nerves.

At the same time, she heard one of her Elder's sound transmissions. 'Young master...should we really trust this person? He can perhaps be an extreme genius from the top Divine Tier sects. Most of them have an overbearing reputation.'

It only took seconds for Yin Xinya to completely calm down. She processed her Elder's words and slowly said, 'What other options do we have now? None of us can put up the slightest resistance against this man. Furthermore, he even went out of his way to split the rewards when there was simply no reason to do so. It's better to just give our grace than to be completely on guard.'

Yin Xinya didn't hesitate a moment longer. She graciously bowed, honestly saying, "We thank Sir for helping our lives. The situation would have undoubtedly turned sour just a second longer."

Both Elders briefly glanced at each other, coming to a unanimous agreement as well. Turning back to Lin Xiang, they bowed, saying, "Many thanks to fellow brother for the help."

"Hm." Lin Xiang gave the Sacred Mansion members another look over.

Out of them all, the young girl certainly isn't a bad seed to foster. Not just because of her evolvable bloodline. That calmly determined personality, one that can even stay calm in the face of death, could develop into a fine Dao Heart.

Thus, Lin Xiang casually asked, "So? I don't suppose you three know for sure why the Sacred Moon School decided to ambush you. It seems like a majorly cost-effective move when considering the power differences between you two."

Already thoughts flowed through Yin Xinya and her Elders' minds. This mysterious person didn't have any uniform from around their city, yet he clearly knows about them.

It only cemented the thought this person could possibly be a genius expert on a worldwide journey.

Still, nobody dared to voice out their thoughts. They kept focused on the current situation.

"That's our thoughts exactly, sir." Yin Xinya quietly sighed. "I was on a simple exploration when the Sacred Moon School suddenly decided to become audacious. Moreover, their school rarely would have a conflict with our mansion. They are sure to know their place."

"So? If it's possibly not an external reason, could there be something else? Planned attacks like this don't just happen out of the blue."

Lin Xiang suggested. He could nearly see the center of this conflict, but only lack a few critical details.

Yin Xinya and her Elders all traded glances. They seemed to go into heavy contemplation for a moment before one of the Elders spoke up. "This matter could be related to the factions within our mansion. But, that is a complicated matter. As for the matter...it could possibly be related to those already high up on the mountain."

A genuine trace of wariness could be heard within the Elder's tone. He, the other Elder, and Yin Xinya all appeared a bit put off by this subject.

This peaked Lin Xiang's intrigue even more so. "Oh? Whoever high up must be quite terrifying for you to regard them in this manner."

Yin Xinya solemnly nodded. "We won't waste words, sir. Those higher up the mountain had come from the 1st ranked province of our continent. Each of them hails from Divine Tier organizations! Not even the Sacred Emperor would want to offend any of those sects."

Divine Tier? Lin Xiang suddenly felt that this situation became a bit more interesting.
