Chapter 1556: Chapter 15: The Princess of Qiuyu Country’s Illness
The cultivators of this rcenary group looked stunned, as they had never seen such martial arts; it was too bizarre.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After entangling with the sand soldiers, a rcenary at the True Master Fifth Realm late stage broke free; he imdiately grabbed a large cleaver and furiously chopped at Lin Yifan who controlled the sand soldiers.
Lin Yifan dodged with a flicker, then clenched his left fist, executing the Void Fist Technique, and struck toward the temple of this True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary.
This True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary gathered a spiritual power shield to protect his body from harm.
“Bang!”
The next mont, Lin Yifan felt his fist hit sothing as hard as steel, and it hurt intensely.
The opponent’s realm was at the True Master Fifth Realm late stage, while his Void Fist Technique was only at a general Superior Immortal level martial arts, so the power levels were simply not on the sa tier.
He expected this, but didn’t anticipate that this True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary would react so swiftly.
“Tch!”
The rcenary sneered mockingly, and then slashed horizontally, intending to cleave Lin Yifan in two.
Lin Yifan retreated swiftly to evade, then took out the Seven-Colored Immortal Sword, and perford the Seven-Colored Sword Technique martial arts to fight back.
The Seven-Colored Sword Technique was a unique Immortal Emperor level martial arts created by the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor, with very powerful force. He only grasped its rudints, but it was enough to deal with this rcenary.
Feeling the overwhelming aura from the strike, the eyelids of the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary twitched in shock.
Lin Yifan’s ability to already wield True Master Fifth Realm middle stage power was surprising enough, and now he could go further, exerting True Master Fifth Realm late stage power, it completely overturned his understanding.
Rumor had it that only exceptionally outstanding people possessed this ability; why would this ordinary-looking man be so extraordinary?
But surprise aside, he was still not weaker than Lin Yifan, so he did not shy away, boldly engaging in battle.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After several exchanges, he found Lin Yifan’s sword was too heavy, making it hard for him to breathe.
He didn’t know why, with equal strength, shouldn’t it be evenly matched? Why was this happening?
Lin Yifan employed rapid Qinggong, opening wide and closing fast, giving this True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary no chance to breathe.
As the enemy quickened his pace and actions, the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary didn’t lag behind, imdiately yelling and commanding, “What are you standing around for? Get in there!”
Upon hearing this command, the rcenaries watching from afar charged in to attack Lin Yifan.
In an instant, Lin Yifan was heavily surrounded by enemy forces, putting him at a disadvantage.
However, Lin Yifan was not flustered, instead he cald his mind, responding to each move effectively, adopting the strategy of remaining unchanged to respond to the changing situation.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After another fierce battle, the lower realm rcenaries had lost their combat capabilities, and even the higher realm ones were panting heavily.
They thought that with a unified effort, they could easily take down Lin Yifan at the True Master Fourth Realm peak, but they realized they couldn’t.
This man’s strength was beyond their imagination, destined to be a fierce fight.
The battle continued, locked in an intense struggle.
But no matter how ferociously the rcenaries attacked, or organized their assault, they couldn’t defeat Lin Yifan, as he was ard with nurous martial arts techniques, encompassing evasion, blocking, flashing movents, attacking, defending. How could one capture a person whose martial arts were nearly perfect?
Thus as they battled, it eventually resulted in only the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary and Lin Yifan being left.
This was originally a battle ant for the two of them; bringing others in made no difference, of course, this is relative to Lin Yifan not being an average martial arts practitioner; a person with single martial arts might be besieged and defeated.
This True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary simply couldn’t believe he would lose to a villain three realms lower than him, so he kept fighting, burning his abundant cultivation power within.
Lin Yifan naturally would not compete in strength, as he was starting to feel strained, his condition not as good as earlier; therefore, he chose to unite his attacks to take down this True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary leader as swiftly as possible.
He was simultaneously performing the Shadow Clone Technique, creating shadows; while holding the Seven-Colored Immortal Ring for an all-out attack.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After over a dozen moves, the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary was heavily wounded, and the scale of victory imdiately tipped in his favor.
Witnessing this scene, the surrounding rcenaries lying on the ground, severely injured, felt the situation was irreversible.
The True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary also realized this, so he surrendered imdiately.
Though they were a profit-driven organization, life was more important than anything else.
Without the Black Heart Bamboo Shoot, they could still search for it; but losing life ant losing everything.
“Boss! Boss! I admit defeat! I admit defeat!”
“If only you realized this earlier, there was no need to be so stubborn! Hmph!”
With a cold hum, Lin Yifan sheathed his sword, and with a proud posture, looked down and inquired, “What are you doing excavating this Black Heart Bamboo Shoot?”
“Boss, honestly, this is our mission. We received an order from a major rchant, they wanted Black Heart Bamboo Shoot, and paid a hefty deposit, so we ca to this deep mountain to search.” answered the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary.
“What’s his intention?” Lin Yifan pursued.
“I think, it’s likely for the Ox Gold Bead.”
“Ox Gold Bead?”
Lin Yifan was surprised, for the Ox Gold Bead was one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations Beads, and belonged to the Northern Seven Stars Bead, having extrely important strategic significance to him.
Lately, he had been searching for the Constellation Beads, especially the remaining five from the Northern Seven, but unfortunately made no progress.
Now encountering the Ox Gold Bead was truly exciting news for him.
Thus he continued to inquire, “Why do you say this?”
“Boss might not know, our Qiuyu Country Princess is gravely ill, never healed. The Emperor was so worried, he couldn’t eat or rest, agonizingly worried, finally decided to announce to all nations, anyone who cures the Princess’s illness would receive the Ox Gold Bead, one of the nation’s treasures, as a reward.
This news caused a sensation worldwide, soon there were many leads on curing the Princess’s illness from Qiuyu Country, one of which ntioned using Black Heart Bamboo Shoot to refine Black Heart Pill, countering poison with poison.
So believed this thod feasible, so attempted to send people searching, we were one of many rcenary groups searching for Black Heart Bamboo Shoot.”
“I see.” Lin Yifan realized, then asked, “By the way, what illness does your Qiuyu Country Princess have that is so hard to cure?”
“We don’t know either, just that her complexion has turned sallow and thin, the space between her brows has darkened, her whole body weakened.” replied the True Master Fifth Realm late stage rcenary.
