In the small courtyard, Lin Xuan stood before the bamboo forest, quietly watching Little Marten, all the aura on his body retracted into himself.
Little Marten, suspended in the air, wore an extremely solemn expression. Originally, he had found it somewhat amusing that someone would actually pay someone to beat him up.
But now, Little Marten couldn't laugh anymore, because this job wasn't something just anyone could take on.
Like now, Little Marten, facing Lin Xuan, who didn't leak even a trace of aura and looked no different from an ordinary person, felt an immense shock in his heart.
One should know that concealing one's aura was something anyone could do, but concealing it in front of a stronger opponent was no easy feat, especially when the difference in their realms was so vast.
As a member of the Sky Demon Marten royal family, a peak Death Profound Realm expert in his previous life, even as just a Demon Spirit, Little Marten could easily see through the details of most people.
However, in Little Marten's eyes, the guy in front of him really just felt like an ordinary person. If Lin Xuan hadn't demonstrated his strength earlier, Little Marten would have sworn to it!
And now, Little Marten finally understood Lin Xuan's approach. Perhaps, for such a monster, the so-called geniuses of his generation couldn't bring him even the slightest pressure, which was why he had come to Little Marten.
Sigh, damn it, it's all my fault for having such a big mouth. He who takes the money does the work, he who eats the food sings the song. Now I can't back out even if I want to.
"Demon Spirit Sacrifice!"
Gazing at Lin Xuan, who stood tall and upright, seemingly blending into the surrounding environment, Little Marten softly shouted.
In the next moment, Little Marten slowly opened his mouth, and then, the Nether Profound Dragon's Demon Spirit that he had swallowed in one gulp slowly flew out.
After a flash of heartache in his eyes, Little Marten's face also carried a hint of seriousness, his little paws constantly dancing in the air.
Silks of energy were rapidly separated from the Demon Spirit, and then, one by one, they drilled into Little Marten's body, eventually transforming into streaks of purple-black light patterns, floating on Little Marten's right claw.
Watching the Demon Spirit in the air that had already been half sacrificed, Little Marten ended the sacrifice with a look of heartache, and once again swallowed the remaining half of the Demon Spirit into his stomach.
Lin Xuan's gaze had been fixed on Little Marten, watching the rather mysterious sacrifice technique, a strange glint flashing in his eyes.
This kind of sacrifice method was somewhat similar to the extreme sublimation of some cultivators. Of course, if Little Marten was sacrificing his own power, it would be even more similar.
However, Lin Xuan also knew that this kind of thing was extremely harmful to the performer, especially with Little Marten's Demon Spirit already damaged. If he wasn't careful, he could directly disappear.
Although I don't have the chance to witness a real sacrifice method, I can still get a glimpse of it.
Lin Xuan's eyes slowly turned translucent white, and strands of special energy flowed through Lin Xuan's body. Then, Lin Xuan clearly saw the flow of energy within Little Marten's body.
Sword Heart Clarity! Unless it was an extremely powerful expert who intentionally concealed the energy fluctuations in their body, Lin Xuan would be able to sense it.
Under Lin Xuan's gaze, the special purple-gold demon纹 on Little Marten's right claw were lit up a lot. In the next moment, an overbearing and sharp aura was released from Little Marten's body.
"Sky Demon Claw!"
Little Marten's figure transformed into a streak of purple-black light, rapidly rushing towards Lin Xuan, while Lin Xuan still stood in place, without the slightest movement.
Watching the strange and overbearing sharp claw getting closer and closer, Lin Xuan's expression was still incomparably calm, scaring Lin Dong, who was watching from the side, so much that his heart was in his throat.
"Buzz!"
But just as Little Marten arrived in front of Lin Xuan, when the sharp demon claw was less than three inches away from Lin Xuan's forehead, an invisible wave formed an invisible barrier in front of Lin Xuan, completely blocking Little Marten's Sky Demon Claw.
"This is?"
The distant Lin Dong, after sensing that special invisible wave, his pupils instantly dilated, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
"Mental power! Advanced Spirit Rune Master!"
Lin Dong had not expected that, besides reaching the Creation Realm in Yuan Power cultivation, Lin Xuan had even reached the realm of Advanced Spirit Rune Master in Mental Energy.
Compared to the other party, the strength and achievements he had gained seemed a bit like child's play.
In that instant, the sense of accomplishment in Lin Dong's heart completely disappeared.
After Little Marten landed a claw, seeing that Lin Xuan did not forcibly shatter his attack, but chose to 'hold' his attack, he also directly withdrew.
"This guy is really a pervert!"
After standing firmly on Lin Dong's shoulder, Little Marten couldn't help but say, he had sacrificed the Demon Spirit of a half-step Great Accomplishment of Creation Realm demon beast, such an attack, even a powerhouse close to the Nirvana Realm, would not dare to do this.
One-on-one, directly shattering the opponent's attack with an attack, to put it bluntly, as long as the strength reaches the same level, anyone can do it.
But to be like Lin Xuan, using gentle power to 'hold' it, and letting the energy slowly release, this kind of situation can only be done when the strength far exceeds the opponent.
At this time, Lin Xuan's attention was completely on the strange and overbearing energy in front of him.
Lin Xuan let Little Marten attack, naturally to feel the Way that Little Marten cultivated, so, this is why he chose to take this move with Mental Energy, in order to clearly comprehend it.
From that strange energy, Lin Xuan could clearly feel that the Mental Energy he released was being constantly eroded, and, faintly, he could also detect a trace of extremely faint devouring power, bit by bit, gnawing at his Mental Energy.
Moreover, from Little Marten's attack, Lin Xuan could also sense a trace of extremely faint aura of death, possibly because he had lost his physical body, and the Demon Spirit had not recovered, this trace of aura of death was extremely faint.
However, it still failed to escape Lin Xuan's perception.
His eyes slowly closed, and strands of surging Sword Qi began to swim around Lin Xuan's body. On the ground, there were also many small sword marks left.
Lin Dong and Little Marten, seeing that Lin Xuan seemed to be comprehending something, also silently withdrew from the small courtyard.
Perhaps stimulated by Lin Xuan, in the following time, Lin Dong also worked hard to begin closed-door cultivation.
