Chapter 1305: Chapter 678: Heaven and Earth Sword Lotus Unites to Face the Enemy_2

Under their watchful eyes, the Spirit Art wielded by Song Xin clashed head-on with the Earth’s Sword Lotus.

At that moment, apart from the earth-shaking noise, the entire interior of the Earth Fiend Sword Formation was engulfed by a fiery sea.

Not only that, the dazzling light directly blinded Song Xin for a brief moment.

By the time he could see clearly, he felt a massive shockwave blasting him backward.

Still in mid-air, the meridians in his body trembled violently, his qi-blood surged uncontrollably, nearly erupting straight from his head.

Soon after, his body slammed heavily into the ground, forming a human-shaped deep crater.

At this point, he was overwhelmed by an excruciating pain that nearly caused him to pass out.

However, Song Xin clenched his teeth tightly, forcing himself to remain barely conscious.

When the pain subsided slightly, Song Xin couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly growing paler.

Simultaneously, his aura diminished considerably.

And at this very moment, Lin Tianming was also not in good shape.

Despite deploying his defensive trump card, the Earth’s Sword Lotus, to withstand Song Xin’s terrifying assault, Lin Tianming still suffered from the tremendous force of the impact.

After all, what Song Xin unleashed was a Spirit Art of the Mysterious Grade—rare even in the Cultivation World.

Faced with an attack of this caliber, whether one could survive unscathed or not, they would inevitably endure immense recoil.

In truth, the force of this recoil was indeed terrifying.

When Song Xin’s strike landed, Lin Tianming felt as though a ten-thousand-jin boulder had crushed his body.

In that instant, searing pain tore through every corner of his being.

Even his very soul seemed to be burned by an invisible sea of fire.

This level of agony was something Lin Tianming had never encountered before.

As he endured it, his face turned as pale as a sheet, his mind plunged into disorder, leaving him on the verge of unconsciousness.

But soon enough, Lin Tianming gritted his teeth and held on.

Once he regained clarity, he managed to control his body once again.

By then, the golden Sword Qi summoned by Song Xin had disappeared without a trace, as though it had never existed.

At the same time, the Earth’s Sword Lotus had also vanished entirely, leaving only the Tiangang Sword hovering in front of Lin Tianming.

Within the Sword Array, the turbulent Gang Wind and surging heat waves had subsided, and the sea of flames gradually faded away.

At this moment, the interior of the Earth Fiend Sword Formation had returned to its prior state.

Meanwhile, Song Xin, who lay in the deep crater opposite Lin Tianming, wore a dazed and vacant expression, his mind clearly still rattled.

Seeing this, Lin Tianming’s heart soared with joy.

Before this clash, he had intentionally feigned weakness, appearing exhausted and at the end of his strength, just to lure Song Xin into delivering a fatal strike.

In truth, Song Xin had indeed fallen into Lin Tianming’s carefully laid plan.

Toward the end, the overwhelming impact trapped both of them in a momentary deadlock.

But Lin Tianming had prepared extensively and anticipated it well in advance.

Moreover, he possessed a formidable body and an awe-inspiring Power of Spiritual Sense.

His ability to endure pain, honed through years of tempering, was also evidently superior to Song Xin’s.

Relying on these innate advantages, he was able to recover his senses from the shockwave more quickly.

In stark contrast, Song Xin remained in a daze, still unable to snap out of his stupor.

This was precisely the opportunity Lin Tianming had been patiently waiting for.

Although Song Xin’s befuddlement would undoubtedly be brief, it was a fleeting window thoroughly exploitable by Lin Tianming.

After all, Song Xin’s cultivation level was marginally higher than Lin Tianming’s.

In such a foundation of strength, Song Xin was likely capable of recovering in no more than the span of a breath.

At that point, Song Xin would regain control over his body and unleash his Divine Skills again, breaking the stalemate.

However, within the Cultivation World, especially in battles at the level of Late Stage Golden Core cultivators, the span of a single breath could be fatal.

Even more so when standing against an opponent like Lin Tianming—resourceful, powerful, and seasoned in combat.

In moments as critical as these, a brief instant was more than enough for Lin Tianming to launch significant actions.

And indeed, that was exactly what happened.

Seizing the moment of Song Xin’s disorientation, Lin Tianming decisively grabbed the Tiangang Sword hanging by his side.

Simultaneously, his other hand formed a single-handed seal, and his jade-like fingers traced the sword from its hilt to its tip.

Once his movements concluded, Lin Tianming muttered an incantation under his breath, expelling a mouthful of essence blood and precisely spraying it onto the Tiangang Sword’s blade.

In an instant, the Tiangang Sword erupted with an incomparably dazzling light, illuminating the entire interior of the Earth Fiend Sword Formation.

As Lin Tianming continued his motions, the Tiangang Sword gleamed ever brighter in his grasp.

In just a fleeting moment, an ethereal silver-white Sword Shadow Lotus once again materialized above Lin Tianming’s head.

From a distance, this Sword Shadow Lotus bore some resemblance to the previous one.

Yet upon closer inspection, one could discern stark differences between the two.

The most striking distinction lay in the current Sword Shadow Lotus’s overwhelming aura, with its Sword Qi radiating an even more menacing presence.

Particularly the invisible killing intent it exuded—even a Late Stage Golden Core expert would feel a shiver run down their spine upon sensing it.

As this phenomenon unfolded, Song Xin indeed awoke from his befuddled state.

The moment he laid eyes on the Sword Lotus above Lin Tianming’s head, his face turned a ghastly white.

His heart quaked with terror.

He knew that this strike from Lin Tianming was demonstrably more horrifying than the defensive maneuver from earlier.

After all, the previous move was primarily defensive in nature.

While its aura was impressive, it couldn’t compare to the ruthlessness of a lethal offensive strike.

Especially with an attack as distinct as Lin Tianming’s, its uniqueness made its power all the more apparent.

Now, as he witnessed this scene and felt the sword lotus’s terrifying aura, Song Xin immediately realized that all of Lin Tianming’s preceding actions were likely mere preparations for this attack.

At this juncture, Lin Tianming had completed his setup for an offensive technique, achieving his intended objectives.

Song Xin, on the other hand, was faced with an arduous trial.

In the face of this test, Song Xin had little time to think or prepare.

At this critical juncture, his priority was to find any means to withstand this round of attacks.

If he failed, Lin Tianming might very well kill him in a single blow.

Even in the best-case scenario, he would sustain severe injuries.

If fortune favored him, he could possibly retreat successfully.

If his luck ran out, his fate might be sealed here.

Considering his predicament, Song Xin had no choice but to act.

In that instant, Song Xin did not hesitate, moving swiftly to retreat while trying to distance himself from the Sword Shadow Lotus.

At the same time, he activated his Defense Treasure, pushing its power to the maximum.

His speed was unmatched—every action completed in a heartbeat. The Defense Treasure quickly manifested at its full potential, securely enveloping him at the center.

As he glanced at the barrier above his head, his expression finally eased slightly.

Next, Song Xin kept his gaze locked on the scene ahead, never taking his eyes off Lin Tianming’s every move.

By this time, Lin Tianming’s Sword Shadow Lotus had reached its peak.

The Sword Shadow Lotus was now fully formed, its overpowering aura seeping through the Sword Array Barricade and spreading across the battlefield.

When others felt this aura, none could maintain their composure.

At that moment, in one corner of the battlefield, a Mid Stage Golden Core cultivator turned toward Lin Tianming’s direction.

Upon seeing the Sword Shadow Lotus materialize, his jaw dropped, and he stammered in disbelief.

"This... this power... what kind of astonishing Divine Skill is this?"

That cultivator wasn’t alone; across the battlefield, countless others paused their battles, their eyes fixed on the unfolding scene.

Fear and trepidation painted their faces as whispers filled the air.
