[Amaze the World: Nurture qi with your body and accumulate qi with your will. Store your spiritual essence until the next attack. The longer you accumulate it, the stronger the attack.]

Ever since he allocated Amaze the World to a clone, Lin Shen had never summoned that clone to battles.

In the past six months, apart from cultivating, all that clone did was nurture its spiritual essence. Lin Shen had placed high hopes on it as his trump card.

And now, this trump card was finally put into use!

As the clone stabbed out, the vast amount of spiritual essence that had been nurtured for nearly half a year instantly surged out, turning into an extremely dazzling sun that carried a domineering aura, burning everything as it crushed toward Wu Ji!

At this moment, even someone as strong as Wu Ji felt like he was about to suffocate!

This strike was even more terrifying than the attack that Lin Shen and his clones had used to kill the blood soul!

It was already too late to summon his golden spiritual essence back to defend himself. In his shock, Wu Ji let out a shrill cry, and a thick bloody light appeared on his face. Without hesitation, he activated a mystic technique and retracted his blood souls.

The six blood souls that were fighting the clones instantly disappeared from the spot.

When they reappeared, they were already in front of Wu Ji.

In the next moment, the scorching sun crashed into the six blood souls!

Facing this extremely ferocious attack, the six blood souls seemed to have met their nemesis. In an instant, they melted like ice melting heat!

Fortunately, Wu Ji had used this moment of delay to withdraw in time and retreat far away to avoid this attack!

“Pfft!”

As soon as he stopped, Wu Ji spat out a large mouthful of blood, his face pale.

Six blood souls perished at the same time, causing him to be heavily injured.

After catching his breath, Wu Ji was filled with hatred. He stared fixedly at Lin Shen, his eyes red.

That was so close…

If he hadn’t activated the mystic technique and retracted his blood souls to defend himself in time, he would have failed miserably and died at the hands of a Bright Aperture Stage brat!

Even though he dodged in time, he was still seriously injured. It was such a great humiliation!

Wu Ji was about to explode from anger.

As an immortal cultivator master, his status was high and mighty. He was the victor on the path to longevity. When had he been forced to such a state by a junior?

Thinking of this, Wu Ji’s killing intent surged. He made up his mind to disregard everything else and kill this brat today!

Facing Wu Ji’s murderous gaze, Lin Shen wasn’t afraid at all. Instead, he smiled faintly.

This was because he could already see the basin where the eye of the cave was. The gray fog had dissipated at some point, and a huge vortex-like halo was floating above the cave. Layers of green light scattered down like rain.

At the same time, a powerful aura was coming out of the vortex!

The spirit cave had been opened!

Wu Ji quickly noticed the abnormality of the cave eye. His expression immediately changed, and the killing intent in his heart dissipated. He couldn’t care about anything else and turned into a beam of blood light to escape into the distance.

“Fellow Daoist Wu, it’s been a long time since we last met. Why are you in such a hurry to leave the moment you see an old friend?”

A deep laughter resonated in the air.

A stream of light broke through the vortex above the basin and chased after Wu Ji. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon.

“A cultivator master of the sect…”

Lin Shen looked in the direction where the stream of light disappeared and heaved a sigh of relief.

The outcome was set. He was finally out of danger!

“It’s all thanks to Amaze the World!”

As soon as he sensed the abnormality of the cave eye, Lin Shen retracted his clones in advance.

At this moment, he sensed the Amaze the World clone in his mind and was very impressed.

This talent didn’t disappoint him. Its power was peerless!

Even a cultivator master was severely injured by a single strike!

It was much more powerful than Lin Shen had expected!

“It’s only been nurtured for less than half a year. If I had a few more months, that strike earlier would probably have killed that cultivator master!”

Lin Shen was full of surprises.

If it was nurtured for ten or twenty years, how powerful would it be?

Just thinking about it made Lin Shen excited.

It was simply too satisfying to use this talent to kill enemies of a higher level!

Just as he was sighing, he heard the sound of something moving fast in the air. Lin Shen turned around and saw a group of figures flying over from afar. It was Xie Jingsheng and the other disciples.

Of the dozen or so people who had fled, only seven or eight had returned.

Fortunately, Xie Jingsheng, Ai Jingting, and Mu Chuanhua were all safe and sound.

“Junior Brother Lin, I’m so glad to see that you’re fine!”

Seeing that Lin Shen was safe and sound, Xie Jingsheng heaved a sigh of relief.

Ai Jingting was also relieved.

When they saw Wu Ji rushing toward Lin Shen, they were so worried that Lin Shen wouldn’t be able to hold on until the sect’s reinforcements arrived.

Fortunately, nothing happened to Lin Shen.

As they spoke, Lin Shen learned that halfway through their escape, they suddenly realized that the blood souls chasing after them had stopped for some reason. Then, they turned around and left.

Thanks to this, they managed to survive.

“Where’s Peng Junqin?” Lin Shen suddenly asked.

Xie Jingsheng and the others looked awkward when they heard the question.

After a pause, Xie Jingsheng said, “On our way back, we found Peng Junqin’s body. From the looks of it, he was killed by Wu Ji’s blood soul. His storage ring was also taken away.”

No one seemed particularly sad.

Peng Junqin was such a selfish fellow. They were already being very considerate by not cheering for the occasion. The last thing they would do was to feel sad.

However, when they thought about how they had almost died in the spirit cave after coming in with so much pride, and how there were less than ten people left in the team of thirty, everyone felt a little depressed..
