Chapter 089：From strength to subtlety, the sword of desolation

"How could he say such shameless things here?" 

At this moment, Liu Fei stood up and stood behind Lin Feng, looking at Duan Han coldly with a look full of intense hatred. 

The two sons of Duan Tianlang, namely Duan Tianlan and Duan Tianlan, destroyed the Yunhai Sect. Similarly, it would cause his father to feel remorse for the rest of his life. These two individuals are extremely despicable. 

When he heard Liu Fei's abusive words, Duan Han's face turned even more pale. In Duan Han's eyes, Liu Fei was the woman he had set his heart on, but she was helping other men to insult him. 

"I'm a fool who can't even parry a single blow from a sword. How dare you call me a fool!" Duan Han glared at Lin Feng coldly and said, "Feifei, I'll prove to you right now how big the gap is between him and me." 

"My cultivation level is at the Second Stage of the Lingwu Realm. You are at the Fourth Stage. I accept your attack with my own weakness as the countermeasure to your strength. This is a sign of courage. But you take pride in it and regard it as the foundation of your pride. You are far beyond what can be summed up by just the word 'shameless'." 

Lin Feng was not intimidated by Duan Han at all. He stepped forward with his feet, his gait steady and sure. 

"If you have the nerve, stand there and take my sword strike." 

"Humph! So what if I take a swing at you? Just wait and see. Even if I don't move, you won't be able to do a thing to me." Duan Han was enraged by Lin Feng's words and stood still, waiting for Lin Feng to attack. 

In the grey pupils, a cruel sneer flashed by and vanished. 

Lin Feng's eyes suddenly closed, and the world instantly became extremely quiet. 

No matter how noisy it was, it couldn't disturb Lin Feng. In the grey world that he sensed in his mind, there was only endless coldness and death. 

The sword qi seemed to vanish in an instant, leaving no trace at all. On the Death and Life Arena, it seemed as if the atmosphere had become extremely quiet in an instant. 

However, at this very moment, a dead and silent greyish aura began to coil around Lin Feng's sword. It kept drifting along the long sword, and this greyish mist was permeated with an atmosphere of annihilation. 

Death is withering and fading. 

When Lin Feng's eyes opened, his pupils remained the same, a cold grey color, devoid of any trace of time's emotions. 

The long sword, shrouded in a haze of smoke, suddenly moved. It moved along with Lin Feng's body. 

With a single sword strike, all things wither, life fades, and silence descends. 

The third sword of the "Silence and Tranquility Sword Technique" is the "Withering and Tranquil Sword". 

This strike was rather weak in its force. One couldn't even sense the powerful momentum of the sword. And there was no hissing sound of sword qi accompanying this strike either. 

However, this sword strike conveys the meaning of withering and annihilation, symbolizing annihilation itself. It is the sword of desolation and silence. 

Duan Han's face changed dramatically. No one else was facing this sword strike, and he understood the terror of it even better. The shadow of death hung over his body. He had already cast aside his promise with Lin Feng to the farthest reaches of the sky. 

"Supporting the sky with one finger." 

When the supreme grade martial skill of Xuanji was used, it emerged as if a massive sword in substance, and Duan Han's body began to retreat rapidly. 

"Chuckle!" 

A faint sound rang out. The desolate sword, shrouded in the grey mist, obliterated everything. Even the supreme martial skill of the Celestial Extreme Rank, One Finger Supporting Heaven, instantly withered and died before it. 

"Get out of here." 

At this moment, a cold and stern shout rang out. Sword energy was flying everywhere. An extremely dazzling sword vortices cut through the dead silence sword and severed it. Lin Feng's body, like a gust of wind, retreated. But the surging after-effects of the sword energy still hit him, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. 

The one who made the move was Duan Tianlang. At this moment, his expression grew colder and colder. He stared at Lin Feng, and his murderous intent was even stronger than before. 

A swordsman, first gathers his momentum, then focuses on the details, and ultimately achieves the state of integrating human and sword, where the human being becomes the sword and the sword becomes the human being. 

"Jusui" refers to "jianshi" (sword posture). When a person remains motionless, the sword posture takes shape. This posture is extremely cold and fierce, significantly enhancing the attacking power of the sword practitioners, making it extremely powerful. 

In this realm, those with extraordinary natural talent in swordsmanship can reach the stage of the "Spiritual Might" realm. And it is only when they have reached the fifth or sixth stage of the "Spiritual Might" realm and are at the peak of their power that they can fully display their swordsmanship. 

Duan Han, his son, had already mastered the sword technique when he reached the third stage of the Lingwu Realm. His talent was extremely outstanding. 

After gathering momentum, it is about entering the subtle realm. In this realm, the sword energy is condensed without dissipating, and the sword momentum follows the will. 

For those who are adept in swordsmanship and have outstanding natural talents, they can comprehend the principles of the Wuwu stage in the early stage and progress from the macroscopic to the microscopic. 

However, Lin Feng, at the level of the Second Stage of the Spirit-Defying Realm, had just that moment delivered a solitary, desolate sword strike. It was precisely that strike that caused Duan Tianlao to have a fleeting, subtle illusion. 

Lin Feng's sword already had a subtle and profound artistic conception. However, Lin Feng had not yet mastered it, so Duan Tianlao interrupted him. 

At this moment, although Lin Feng's mouth was stained with blood, there was a faint, deep mocking smile in his grey eyes. 

"If you two come together, I really don't even have the qualification to be compared with you. I wouldn't be so shameless as to do that." 

Lin Feng's sarcastic remarks pierced Duan Han's heart. 

"Shut up!" Duan Han said in a sinister tone, as if he wanted to carve Lin Feng to pieces with a thousand knives. 

"Fan Han and He Yi, both of whom are on the verge of death, have nothing to argue about." 

Duan Tianlang gave a cold and indifferent grunt, then stepped forward and headed towards Lin Feng. 

"Dan Tianlang, bullying a junior fellow, truly deserves to be called the King of the Sky Wolves." 

Nan Gong Ling led by the elders of Yunhai Sect descended from the air and landed right in front of Lin Feng on the Lifes and Deaths Platform. 

Seeing this scene, the numerous powerful figures brought by Duan Tianlang also stepped forward. Instantly, an overwhelming and powerful aura spread throughout the space, and the fierce killing intent seemed to crush the heavens and earth. 

"These old guys will kill one by one. There's a chance that Lin Feng will be killed first if they have the opportunity." 

Duan Tianlang said calmly, "This time I came to Yunhai Sect with the masters from the three major sects. The head of Haoyue Sect and the head of Xingjixiang Sect came personally, and the deputy head of Wanniu Sect also brought powerful beasts with him. Adding in the other strong individuals, their strength is far superior to that of Yunhai Sect." 

This time, their aim was to wipe out Yunhai Sect, destroy its families and seize its ancestral estate, and then divide it up among themselves. 

This is also the most crucial reason why Duan Tianlang was able to persuade several masters to agree to send some outstanding disciples from their respective sects to the Snow Moon Holy Academy. 

The Yunhai Sect, with its vast territory, possesses an abundance of rare materials and precious treasures, as well as powerful martial arts and skills. Coupled with those outstanding disciples who have defected, it is something that several other sects would greatly desire. 

"Among the members of the Cloud Sea Sect, the Red Blood Cavalry would not spare even a single person or animal." 

Duan Tianlang gave a sweeping gesture of his hand. Instantly, the iron cavalry galloped about, dust swirling in the air. The crimson-blooded iron cavalry surrounding the area of the Jieshi Platform charged into the canyon. 

"Segment Tianlang, I, Nan Gong Ling, am the leader of Yunhai Sect. You dare to lead your troops to destroy my Yunhai Sect? You can have a showdown with me!" 

Nan Gong Ling took a big step forward and his powerful aura directly clashed with Tian Lang's. 

"What makes you think I dare not?" Duan Tianlang sneered and shot up into the air. 

Nan Gong Ling followed him. His body was suspended in mid-air. The dazzling sword light was extremely brilliant. Duan Tianlao directly delivered a sword strike from the air, cleaving it off. It was extremely powerful. 

"Boom..." 

The demonic beast Kunmeng let out a low growl, spreading its wings and charging towards the people of Yunhai Sect. The deputy gatekeeper of the Beast Spirit Sect, Teng Wushan, was sitting on the Kunmeng, his gaze sharp as lightning. 

"Abominable beast." 

The phoenix spirit blade behind Beilao's back flickered and shot towards Kunmeng, engaging in combat with it until they were side by side. 

The others also all picked their opponents one after another and fought together. 

A vast battle was launched, causing the heavens and earth to tremble. All kinds of fierce gusts of wind were extremely fierce and tyrannical. 

All over the sky and on the earth, there is a torrent of battle. 

The Death and Life Platform kept shaking violently, as if it might collapse and fall apart at any moment. 

The grey pupils silently observed the fierce battle around them. Lin Feng, however, was unable to intervene. He could sense that the Patriarch, Elder Bei, and the other elders of the sect were all fighting for him. 

Lin Feng never expected that this massacre of the entire family would unfold around him as the central figure. 

The endless icy coldness in his heart stirred up a faint warmth. For the first time, Lin Feng felt a sense of belonging to Yunhai Sect. The people of Yunhai Sect were fighting to the death for him. 

The elders, including Lord Nan Gong Ling, Elder Bei La, and others, are all powerful. They can attempt to break through separately. Although they may not be able to escape, there is still a considerable chance of survival. 

But no one did so. They all gathered around Lin Feng, around this disciple of the sect, fighting for him. 

"Yunhai Sect." 

Lin Feng murmured to himself in his heart, looking at the bright red blood under the setting sun, his heart feeling extremely oppressed and heavy. 

"Lin Feng." 

Just at that moment, a sudden shout rang out. Looking around, Lin Feng's eyes couldn't help but pause slightly. 

Only to see a cold figure step onto the Death and Life Arena, his gaze carrying a chilling smile and his murderous intent glimmering. 

This person turned out to be Mo Xie, the Inner Gate Elder of Yunhai Sect. 

"Beast." 

Lin Feng saw Mo Ye walking towards him with a cold smile on her face, her eyes as icy as ice. 

When the sect was in peril and faced the disaster of being wiped out, Mo Ye, as the senior elder of the Inner Sect of Yunhai Sect, did not fight for the sect. At this critical moment, she even still cared about him and planned to deal with him during the chaos. 

"Even if you kill me, what good will it do? You, Mochi, will still end up dead in the end." 

Lin Feng watched Mo Xie approaching him and said in an extremely cold tone. 

"Surely not. You have demonstrated such remarkable talent. The King of the Wolves will have to kill you today. If I were to cut off your head and hand it over to the King of the Wolves, and express my willingness to follow him in the future, do you think I would still die?" 

Mo Ye's smile at the corner of her mouth was particularly sinister. Hearing his words, Lin Feng's grey pupils froze for a moment. 

Inner Gate Elder, this is Mo Xie, the Inner Gate Elder of Yunhai Sect. She is shameless to the extreme! 

"I really admire you for being able to utter such shameless words with a smile on your face." 

"It doesn't matter. It's just a case of the victor taking the spoils and the loser being defeated. The King of Tianlao is mighty, and the Yunhai Sect is doomed to be wiped out. There's no way to reverse it. Instead of fighting against the tide, it's better to go with the flow. Those who fought to the death for the sect were foolish and ignorant." 

Mo Ye spoke loudly, "Not only did he not feel ashamed of it, but he was even proud of it. Perhaps in his heart, the word 'shame' has vanished." 

"Since that's the case, then I'll do it for you. Come on." 

Lin Feng was extremely calm and composed, standing there motionless as if he were resigned to being killed by Mo Ye. 

This made Mo Ye frown instead, looking at Lin Feng with suspicion. 

However, shortly after that, his brows relaxed again. With his strength, even if Lin Feng had an outstanding talent, he wouldn't be able to come up with anything fancy. 

"Alas! A genius is about to meet his end at my hands, and it will be a very tragic death." 

Mo Ye's spirit soul was released. The thick and sturdy mamba vine instantly attacked and wrapped around Lin Feng's body. Lin Feng, surprisingly, didn't even make the slightest attempt to struggle. 

At this moment, Mo Ye didn't notice that Lin Feng's lips were curled into an extremely strange and sinister smile. 

"It seems that you yourself have already given up. Don't worry, I'll make your death take a longer time. Eventually, I'll take off this genius's head of yours." Mo Xie's face was cruel. 

However, just at this moment, a dark shadow suddenly emerged on Mo Ye's body. 

This shadow appeared without a sound, without any trace or form, yet it truly existed there. 

"Really?" 

A voice rang out from the void. Instantly, Mo Ye's face suddenly turned pale and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. 

It's him!! 

Mo Ye could never forget that scene from last time. That shadow in the darkness was like a ghost. 

And at this very moment, that shadow once again fell upon him.
