Yao Changying felt the throbbing pain in her arm and infused Immortal Qi into it to suppress it.
'He managed to take the thrust with his bare hands? Even with his body cultivation, he should still have had his hand shredded.' Yao Changying found it astonishing.
But at the same time, she felt angered at it. She was angry that some random cultivator that had no backing that she knew of was able to block her like that.
'I'll finish him directly now…' She thought as a scowl appeared on her face.
"DIE!" Yao Changying was pissed from all this, having not expected the battle to go like this.
~SHING~ SHING~
She moved her sword in an inverted 'V' shape as an illusory mountain condensed in front of her.
"Flourishing Flower Sword Art: Blossoming Mountain Rise!" Her Sword intent infused into the mountain, turning into a peak that was filled with millions of petals.
The said mountain quickly increased to a size of fifty meters and continued to grow while threatening to crash upon Lin Mu!
With the sword intent and immortal Qi that was contained with it, if it hit Lin Mu, it would be the same as getting pressed into a blender.
"I've been wanting to try this out, you just gave me the perfect opportunity." Looking at the massive size of the mountain, Lin Mu wasn't dissuaded.
Instead, he decided to take it head on.
"Haaa…" Lin Mu let out a loud cry as the tyrannical aura filled his arms.
His muscles bulged out and multiplied rapidly, growing his arms in the process. His already large body grew even more bulky, with unnaturally sized arms attached to it.
Those knowledgeable about the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets watched it all with wide eyes. "From the second stage… the—"
Before the man in the audience could speak though, Lin Mu's loud shout spoke for him.
"TYRANT LIFT!" Lin Mu spread his arms wide open while using his hands as claws and collided against the incoming mountain.
The millions of sharp petals that were surrounding the mountain were forcefully scattered by Lin Mu.
~BOOM~
His arms struck the mountain and dug into its sides, while his claw like hands gripped it tightly.
"AHHHHHHHH!" Letting out a loud roar Lin Mu thrust his legs against the ground, shattering all of it in a kilometer's radius.
~CRACK~
But this was all just to give him momentum, as he rose up from the push, pulling the mountain along with him.
Lin Mu's large arms exerted terrifying strength, as numerous cracks started to spread on the mountain.
The Mountain itself was also resisting Lin Mu's attack, or at least attempting to and yet it was unable to do so. Tyrannical aura seeped in from the cracks while Lin Mu continued to rise up higher and higher.
In just a few seconds, he had reached a height of five hundred meters while the mountain reached a height of a hundred meters.
"BREAK!" At this point, Lin Mu squeezed with all his might before forcibly changing the trajectory of the mountain.
~CRUMBLE~
The mountain composed of immortal Qi and sword intent was unable to withstand Lin Mu's tyrannical might, crumbling into rocks that fell down from the sky. The rocks didn't last long either, and quickly dispersed into Qi before they reached the ground.
"Good heavens! He broke the strongest skill from the Flourishing Flower Sword Art!" The audience was absolutely gobsmacked.
Even if the Flourishing Flower sect was from another world, it was still rather well known in the Rust Sky world. There were many people from other worlds here to watch the tournament too and were thus knowledgeable about their techniques and skills.
What Yao Changying had used was the strongest skill in the Flourishing Flower Sword Art. It was something that was the pride of the sect and yet, it had been broken by a black horse in the tournament.
This was almost unbelievable to them as an attack like this would have injured a Sixth Tribulation Stage Immortal while pushing a Seventh Tribulation Stage Immortal back.
Of course, they didn't know that when Lin Mu had practiced the same with the Saintess, he had broken an equally strong cloud pillar.
"HAHAHA!" Lin Mu laughed wildly, seeing his handiwork.
His body wasn't fully safe either though, as hundreds of fine cuts could be seen on his torso, arms and face. The Sword intent contained within the peak and the petals were trying to infiltrate Lin Mu's body, but the Tyrannical aura and vitality were proving to be a great obstacle.
To the Sword intent, it was the same as swimming up a waterfall.
Yao Changying looked up at Lin Mu in the sky, who seemed to be pleased with his act.
"You… Dare humiliate me like this!?" Yao Changying felt her pride being insulted. "This isn't all that I know!" she screamed before a cold and unsettling aura rose from her body.
The aura was unlike her sharp sword intent and also didn't have the color of her petals. Instead, it was a lifeless slate grey, causing those who looked at it to feel unnerved.
~HUALA~
Yao Changying coated her long sword with this aura and slashed at Lin Mu in the sky.
~WENG~
The sword slash this time looked incomparable to the mountain from before. Its size was also small, being only two meters wide.
And yet, when Lin Mu felt it, he instantly became alert. His laughter stopped and his face became serious.
~WHOOSH~
He kicked in the air, changing his direction forcibly, and tried to dodge the incoming sword slash.
"Mm?!" But he witnessed the sword slash changing the directions and following after him, too.
As if the Sword Slash was sentient, its speed suddenly rose and it struck Lin Mu!
~HISS~
A sizzling sound was heard when the sword slash hit Lin Mu's left arm.
A burning pain rose from his hand, alarming Lin Mu greatly.
'It bypassed my defenses as if they didn't exist… what is this?'
