However, to everyone's surprise, Zhao Qianyue was not dead!
The moment Lin Yitang drew her knife, Zhao Qianyue had already reacted. She immediately circulated her spiritual power and activated her top-tier movement technique, narrowly avoiding a fatal wound.
Although she survived, Zhao Qianyue's right arm was not spared. The blade sliced across her shoulder, severing her arm at the root. Blood splattered, and Zhao Qianyue staggered.
Her face was deathly pale, and blood gushed from her severed arm. The excruciating pain caused a fine layer of cold sweat to bead on her forehead, but her eyes remained fierce and arrogant.
He glared at Lin Yitang through gritted teeth and sneered, "Little girl, you were too slow after all. You think you can kill me with just a few of you? Dream on!"
As she spoke, she channeled her spiritual energy and quickly sealed the wound. Although she had lost an arm, her body was still full of spiritual energy.
She arrogantly declared, "The three of you are already at your last gasp, your spiritual energy almost depleted, right? But I still have plenty of spiritual energy. Destroying you is just a matter of snapping my fingers!"
Upon hearing Zhao Qianyue's words, Li Wuwang and Lu Jingyun's faces instantly turned pale.
They looked at Zhao Qianyue, their eyes filled with despair.
It's over, it's over!
Junior Sister Lin had used all her ultimate moves, but she still couldn't completely defeat Zhao Qianyue. The strength of a Golden Core cultivator was terrifying; they were no match for her. They were truly doomed!
Lu Jingyun clenched his fists, veins bulging on the back of his hands. He gritted his teeth, knowing Zhao Qianyue was right. All three of them were nearly exhausted of spiritual energy, while Zhao Qianyue still had reserves. They had no chance of winning this battle.
However, just as Li Wuwang and Lu Jingyun were in despair, Lin Yitang remained calm and instead smiled gently.
She looked at Zhao Qianyue, her tone light: "Senior Sister Zhao, don't speak too soon. The one who should die is probably you."
Both Li Wuwang and Lu Jingyun were taken aback upon hearing this.
They couldn't understand why Lin Yitang was so calm. Did she have a backup plan?
Zhao Qianyue's face darkened, and she snorted coldly: "Stop playing tricks here! The three of you have no more skills or spiritual energy left. You can only dream of killing me! In this situation, you still dare to spout nonsense. You really have commendable courage."
Her aura suddenly surged, making everyone breathless, and she planned to make another move to completely wipe out the three of them.
However, just as she gathered her spiritual energy, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared out of nowhere and struck Zhao Qianyue directly.
Zhao Qianyue was shocked and quickly circulated her spiritual power to defend herself.
However, the power of this lightning bolt was far too great for her to withstand. The lightning struck her, producing a deafening roar.
Zhao Qianyue screamed and flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.
Her body was charred black and covered in blood, clearly indicating she was severely injured. But her eyes were filled with terror, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.
Lin Yitang watched all this indifferently, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips.
She had long known that the secret realm had severe punishments for violators. Zhao Qianyue, by concealing her cultivation level and forcibly entering the Foundation Establishment stage secret realm, had already violated the rules of the secret realm.
In fact, there's no need to defeat Zhao Qianyue at all. As long as we can force her to use her Golden Core stage strength, we can naturally use the rules of the secret realm to eliminate her.
Her previous fights with Li Wuwang and Lu Jingyun had attracted the attention of the secret realm. Therefore, she didn't expect to defeat Zhao Qianyue with this attack at all; she only needed to interfere with her method of concealing her cultivation level.
Sure enough, she made the right bet!
The secret realm unleashed divine punishment, severely injuring Zhao Qianyue.
By the time Zhao Qianyue realized Lin Yitang's true intentions, it was already too late.
The rules of the secret realm descended like divine punishments, as if an invisible hand wanted to crush Zhao Qianyue completely.
Zhao Qianyue's face instantly turned deathly pale. She felt an immense pressure enveloping her, rendering her immobile. Then, bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking her fiercely. Each strike made her body tremble violently, and blood spilled from her mouth.
Her expression was filled with despair, yet she was powerless to resist.
Lu Jingyun and Li Wuwang watched this scene with disbelief, followed by shock, and then began to ponder the reasons behind it.
When they realized that Lin Yitang was behind it, a glint of joy flashed in their eyes. They, who had been feeling hopeless, suddenly became excited.
They couldn't help but admire Lin Shimei's intelligence; she had actually thought of using the secret realm's rules to deal with Zhao Qianyue. How come they hadn't thought of that!
You should know that the most powerful thing in the secret realm is not the late Foundation Establishment stage, but the rules of the secret realm itself!
Just as Zhao Qianyue was about to be killed by the rules of the secret realm, her screams were both pitiful and filled with resentment. With her last strength, she roared at Lin Yitang and the others.
Her voice was filled with resentment and unwillingness, sharp and shrill: "Lu Jingyun, Li Wuwang, and that Lin fellow, you just wait! My master is the Yuanyang True Lord of the Tianxuan Sect. After I die and my soul lamp goes out, he will definitely avenge me!"
The moment the words left her lips, the punishment under the rules of the secret realm reached its peak. A dazzling bolt of lightning flashed, and Zhao Qianyue's body was torn to shreds, vanishing into thin air.
Lu Jingyun and Li Wuwang were still immersed in the joy of Zhao Qianyue being eliminated by the rules of the secret realm, but when they heard her last words, their expressions changed drastically.
"Junior Brother Li, we're in trouble now!" Lu Jingyun said to Li Wuwang, his face pale, as if a great calamity was about to befall him, his face devoid of any color.
Li Wuwang sighed: "Yes, Zhao Qianyue's master is the Yuanyang True Lord of the Tianxuan Sect. If he knew that his beloved disciple had been killed, he would definitely not let it go."
Hearing their conversation, Lin Yitang asked curiously, "Senior brothers, what are you talking about? Zhao Qianyue is already dead, is there any more trouble?"
Lu Jingyun gave a wry smile and explained, "Junior Sister Lin, you don't know this. It is said that some major sects will leave some special methods on their genius disciples. If a disciple dies, the image of him before his death can be transmitted to the soul lamp so that the disciple's master knows who killed him."
“Yuan Yang Zhenjun is one of the elders of Tianxuan Sect, holding a prestigious position. Zhao Qianyue is the most outstanding genius of this generation in Tianxuan Sect, and is highly valued. We just killed Zhao Qianyue, and the footage of her dying must have been sent back to Tianxuan Sect. Yuan Yang Zhenjun must know that we were the ones who did it.”
"We two are fine, after all, we are both disciples of the three major sects. But Junior Sister Lin, you are in danger."
Lu Jingyun nodded: "That's right. Both of our sects have enough resources and strength. Even if Yuan Yang Zhenjun wants to take revenge, he will have to be hesitant to act rashly."
"But Junior Sister Lin, you come from the Tianyin Sect, which is relatively weak and lacks the means to confront True Monarch Yuanyang. I'm afraid the first person he'll seek revenge on is you, Junior Sister Lin!"
