A self-created technique? Lin Yun fell into deep thoughts because he didn’t recall that there was a Thunderclap Crusher in the Thunderclap Sword. This meant that this move was created by Bai Lixuan.
If Bai Lixuan’s Saint Physique was shocking enough, then how strong was he now that he had created a move himself? This made everyone look at Bai Lixuan with shock in their eyes.
“Ninth battle, the Sword Firmament Pavilion’s Lin Yun VS the Sword Cloud Pavilion’s Twilight!” announced the princess. This made the atmosphere that calmed down a little to rile up once more.
“Finally.”
“Twilight practically hated Lin Yun deep to his bones because Lin Yun killed his junior brother. I wonder if Lin Yun can survive this ordeal.”
“Lin Yun will certainly die unless he surrenders.”
“Interesting. Let’s see what he will choose. He shouldn’t have come to the competition, to begin with. He should be proud that he made it into the top thirty-two, and it’s not embarrassing for him to surrender.” Everyone was filled with anticipation about the battle.
Two figures descended on the stage. They did not pay any attention to the surrounding discussion, and only looked at each other. Twilight was donned in black as he looked at Lin Yun like he was looking at a prey. He didn’t even bother concealing the rage and killing intent in his eyes. “I told you three days ago that you better not run into me. You should surrender if you’re tactful. Otherwise, no one can save you when the battle begins.”
“This fellow is trying to provoke junior brother on purpose!” Xin Yan instantly detected Twilight’s objective, and the judge also looked at Lin Yun, seeming to ask if he was going to surrender.
“No need,” said Lin Yun.
The judge no longer spoke and left the stage. He then announced, “Begin!”
Twilight harrumphed coldly, and he unleashed a powerful aura from his body. He was like a sword dazzling in the darkness like a star. As he began to release his sword intent from his body, his aura began to rise, which soon enveloped the entire stage.
“What power!”
“He’s planning to end this battle quickly without giving Lin Yun any chance.”
“How terrifying. I can’t imagine what kind of pressure Lin Yun is facing standing before Twilight.”
“Twilight is truly worthy of his title…” By just unleashing his aura, Twilight had displayed the terror of a titled figure before everyone.
When Twilight’s aura reached the pinnacle, he drew his sword and took a step forth. His sword ray was like a comet that streaked across the horizon. Paired with his terrifying sword aura, his attack was fast and ruthless.
Facing his attack, Lin Yun tightened his grip on the Flower Burial Sword. When he drew it out, the sound of the sword’s body rubbing against the sheath rang out like a ferocious roar. Right in the critical moment, he blocked Twilight’s sword, and their clash made the entire stage trembled.
Lin Yun managed to block the attack, but what made everyone shocked was the fact that Lin Yun didn’t even take a step back. When Twilight’s sword ray shattered, he frowned his brows, and he stabbed forth.
However, Lin Yun faced his attack calmly and activated the Seven Profound Steps. In the next second, he was like a golden crow dashing around the stage, and every step of his was like a painting. But Twilight was closely chasing behind Lin Yun and shattering the images he left behind.
In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged over ten moves. Twilight was like a mountain, who made use of his advantage in his cultivation to suppress Lin Yun.
“You’re strong, and not even a Violet Palace Realm cultivator might be able to gain an upper hand fighting you.” Lin Yun fell into deep thoughts because Twilight was truly terrifying. He was stronger than Wu Mohan that he faced previously. The two were in the quasi-Violet Palace Realm, but they weren’t on the same level.

“Glad you know. Now, die!” Twilight sneered, and he stomped his foot on the ground. His stomp instantly left cracks on the ancient stage.
“Die? You must be dreaming,” replied Lin Yun without any expression on his face. The Iris Flower in his dantian bloomed, and he finally unleashed his cultivation in the tenth stage.
“Tenth stage of the Profound Martial Realm?!”
“How is this possible?!” Everyone was shocked by this scene. After all, Lin Yun was still in the ninth stage three days ago, but he was already in the tenth stage now. Furthermore, it didn’t look like he was in the initial tenth stage judging from his aura.
“Dual Moon!” Two moons appeared, one hanging on the sky and the other one on the ground. The Flower Burial Sword in Lin Yun’s hand also emitted a radiating light as he swung his sword, shattering Twilight’s sword aura.
However, Lin Yun didn’t stop there as he spread his arms apart and dashed forth like a golden crow. Without any hesitation, he swung his sword down at Twilight’s head.
“You’re courting death!” Twilight was enraged that Lin Yun actually dared to come up to him.
“Luminous Starlight!” Twilight poured his origin energy into his sword, which made his sword seem like a dazzling star in the sky.
“Luminous Moon!” Lin Yun sneered, and a moon appeared on his sword.
When the star and moon clashed, the turbulence of energy instantly devoured Lin Yun, and the explosions caused by the clash rang out in everyone’s ears.
“Is he dead?” Everyone began to feel worried for Lin Yun, who was devoured by the violent energy.
Suddenly, a crisp crack sounded out. Shortly after, a ray of moonlight shot out from mid-air that swallowed up the entire stage. Within the moonlight, Lin Yun stood in the air holding onto the Flower Burial Sword. He was like a moon that descended down onto earth. “A firefly dares to compete with the moon?”
Under Twilight’s gaze filled with shock, he was sent flying out.
“Is that the so-called title?” commented Lin Yun as he looked at Twilight flying out.
“How arrogant!”
“Arrogant? So what?” Lin Yun raised his brow looking at the enraged Twilight. He pointed the Flower Burial Sword at Twilight. Before Twilight could react, a terrifying chill emitted from Lin Yun. The chill was so cold that it felt as if it could seal everything. That was naturally the Aquaselenic Sword’s Myriad Frost.
This made Twilight’s face change when he sensed the terrifying sword aura devouring him. Without a second thought, he placed his sword before him to defend himself, and he started pouring his origin energy into the sword. Crisp shatters could be heard on the stage again, but this time, icicles were falling onto the ground.
Twilight’s face turned pale as he was blown out again while throwing out a mouthful of blood. This made everyone shocked because Twilight was the one being injured instead, and no one dared to believe what they saw. They even doubted if they were seeing it wrongly, and it was Lin Yun who was injured.
“I have to admit that I underestimated you…” Twilight wiped the blood off his lips, and a ray of light suddenly descended down from the heaven that enveloped him. Shortly after, two radiating sword rays formed into a ‘十’ and Twilight also emitted a dazzling brilliance. “But I’ve said that you will die if you don’t surrender!”
When the ‘十’ was formed before him, Twilight took a step forth.
“That’s the Cross Seal, the sign of the Supreme Radiance Sutra reaching the eighth stage!”
“Lin Yun is finished. The eighth stage of the Supreme Radiance Sutra is comparable to the Violet Palace Realm!” But before everyone’s exclamation could settle down, an Iris Flower bloomed behind Lin Yun, and he stabbed his sword forth.
Under Lin Yun’s attack, Twilight’s attack was completely crushed. When Twilight reached out to his forehead with disbelief and looked at the blood in his hand, he was completely stunned. In the next second, he was blown out of the stage with his body mutilated.
“From today onwards, there will be no Twilight among the eight titles,” declared Lin Yun as he swept his glance around.
